oh okay my friends and also my enemies
there's nothing i can do to prevent you guys from tuning in yeah that's true
you could prevent them from talking in the chat i can make them watch me eat because i
haven't had a chance to have lunch today a lot of people are going to complain about that i know people don't like it
when you eat which is why i'm only going to take one bite so that i can generate the complaints
but i'm not actually being that terrible of a person oh so okay can you explain
to me why it's terrible though i've actually never understood because
okay yeah but if you avoid that
you just made it so much worse
so much incredibly worth it oh boy all right yeah we got a great show for you
guys today my chrome's frozen because it's a piece of garbage and uh otherwise
i would tell you what uh what we have for you oh there was a long
lost starcraft gold source code that was
found apparently this source code disk was lost so they had to start on
starcraft from scratch and the reward that the guy got for finding it is like
junk tier yeah i know right a lot of the
topics are like handsomely rewarded i'm like not at all wow yeah more like got
fisted yeah a little bit not cool okay
speaking about getting fisted you could come to ltx 2017 which is a Linus tech
tips meetup that we are hosting locally which should be super fun
if you enjoy certain matters so we'll talk more about that later uh we're
gonna address the LTT thousand dollar build guide that
some of you are feeling kind of fisted about wow this is
becoming a bit of a common theme yeah and um finally AMD fisting their
customers yes by making money from their drivers
yeah all right so we'll get to that and more at 11.
there's a little asterisk after the 11 and it's like 11 is
whatever time you are watching yeah that's right
but like later than that
because we haven't started yet
oh okay who are the sponsors today
live and using the code now instead of waiting
for the integration and backblaze we have a new sponsor today
that's fun yes my friends we do all right so let's go ahead and go back to
us and i'm gonna try and wow what the heck my chrome is so broken
what am i supposed to do uh i can post the topics in the chat you
can get the links from the chat wow i guess that doesn't
wow what the crap on firefox do it no
it's not
i would if it was going to be better
but it won't be oh that's just my personal stuff
don't worry about it he saw my uh my secret tab of
quad socket motherboards that i like to look at late at night
um is it working now are you good yeah i think i've closed enough of enough of my
tabs you know so the the gram 14 doesn't
have a 16 oh gram 14 doesn't have a 16 gig skew
available even though it just has a sodium slot so what i was planning to do
was take the gram 15 and the gram 14 swap the sodims
and then kind of you know whistle and walk away kind of thing yeah um because
i really like the 14. i don't need the number pad and i i find the screens big
enough this is what i've been using as my daily driver lately actually
um but i've just been lazy what what is
this what oh it says i'm angry about video games oh okay okay okay i thought you i
thought it was a lead-in to no it's not not having enough RAM for all my
okay all right all right
what do we want to start with which which which is the most important
fisting or we can talk about AMD so people are like wow that's crazy and
then we can talk about ltx and so people won't be as upset about about us
screwing them yeah but i love it okay so
you gotta you gotta take this post with a grain of salt because
zemul bless his or her heart i don't know if zemul is a dude or a gal um but
gmail is not probably the world's most objective
observer when it comes to AMD and Intel
um it's kind of like expecting good bites on the forum to say something
anti-microscopic yeah yeah we're not calling you guys fanboys
because we don't know if you're male
we never have to worry about microsoft news showing up on the forum though
because it will always be there any good bites will make sure that it is there
that's right yeah so we appreciate actually all the anti-mike are all the
anti-AMD and pro Intel news and pro microsoft news that we can rest assured
we'll make it into the tech news section of the forum
all right so the original article here is actually from tech powerup and in a
nutshell what it appears
as though AMD is doing in that when you install their 17.4.4
driver it appears that
with a bitly so hold on we did talk about this last week yeah so there's a
quake champion you did yes i thought james told you that he came
downstairs and asked me he's like did you talk about this last week and i was
like yes and he was like okay because Linus wants it in the thing and i was
like
we totally why do we even why do you know what forget it no i quit
no i'm not doing this podcast anymore all right well if you want to see Linus
in person so that he can go okay you know what i quit in person
but no i want to talk i want to talk about this okay i want to talk about
this because because i'm mad
oh this is dumb yeah i think they stopped it oh they did i'm pretty sure
okay then i'm over it all right fine let's talk about
something else i'm not 100 sure but i'm i am pretty sure there's like almost no
notes so but i if i remember from last week they were like oh wow we didn't realize how
much you guys would care if we were ridiculously annoying and put bloatware
on your computer right and then they pulled it i think that's what happened all right
let's talk about ltx so basically if you
were thinking to yourself gee these guys aren't annoying enough over
the internet i would need to be annoyed in person and
you need you need to have taran explain about macros and hotkeys in person
than this is the event for you are we
doing the dunk tank thing i have no idea
so basically it's kind of this half baked
um oh wow sort of con really selling it right now well okay okay okay okay okay
do you want me to okay so do you want me to talk about the half-baked stuff first or the cool stuff first
i mean let's get the half-baked out of the way okay we started so it's
half-baked in the sense that it's two months away and we haven't actually
locked down a single sponsor for the event yet okay
um because the idea behind it we're actually rent so so there's there's not
half-baked stuff we are actually renting an arena
so and as far as i've heard yep there will
be a small sized kiddie pool without
anything in it and a ball pit so we'll be at least that good there
will be at least that okay and it'll be in an arena yeah some people will
recognize that um but like the arena is really expensive
so in addition to admission and we actually can't even fit that many people
um we're limited to somewhere in the neighborhood of like yeah there you go
so just over a thousand people um because we can't really use because
it's in like a stadium so we can't really use any of the
seating because there's nothing that you would really sit there and watch yeah
yeah like me like maybe we could have a few rows out if people just want to go
sit down but like that's not the idea and there's but and there's also going
to be like like potentially maybe
like a lounge that you could do that okay yeah yeah yeah um but but basically
it would be like the size of a hockey rink down at the bottom of what is
actually a hockey rink if this was so
if it's not ready and we don't have sponsors and stuff yet yeah
why wouldn't we have just pushed it out um because we want to do it in the
summer and also if we didn't set a deadline
if we didn't set a deadline we'd just never do it that's also fair yeah so we
decided to set a deadline are we doing this
that will almost definitely happen so what is so so the the question burning
in everyone's minds is probably what is a tech carnival
yeah it's a cross between a con
like a uh convention i was thinking i had conference popping into my head for some
reason it was not a conference Colton run says so it's a combination between a
convention oh yeah we also have meet up in there so
to see meet up it's a convention it's a meet-up
it's a carnival yeah so it's the vision
is this we wanted to do something that's a little bit different
and so i kind of went you know what was fun when i was a kid
carnivals the school carnival the fundraiser carnival the school okay yeah
those actually yeah they were it would be like stupid like gambling games but
not for actual money you just get like so we do whatever those but themed to
computer stuff so the idea is that every manufacturer
who wants to partner with us to sponsor a booth they don't actually have to pay
a ton of money like in the grand scheme of things compared to what they would be
accustomed to for a convention like booth space because the booths aren't
going to be that like amazing or anything they're just going to be
centered around these carnival ideas so
some of the ideas we have is we want some kind of a gaming manufacturer to
come in and equip ed and a competitor of
who presumably would wait in line to take
him on and you have to beat at it cs go yeah
and there might be some kind of a leader it's gonna be hard he's good or it would enter you into some kind of a draw in
order to have a chance to win something really cool that would be provided by that manufacturer
other ideas include things like we want a case guy to come in and with how many
cool people there are in the case industry we're pretty sure this is not
going to be a problem but we want a case guy to come in and sponsor the case toss
so again it would be like a leaderboard type thing and we take maybe the top
five people throughout the course of the day obviously it's the kind of thing that
would be pretty funny to watch is people taking computer cases and basically shot
putting them as far as they can yeah so the idea is just good kind of pure fun
goofing around maybe there'll also be some demos and
some cool tech like that case manufacturer might bring a couple to not
throw so you could maybe look at their latest cases maybe yeah um and then the
LMG staff all of us i believe we've called like an
all hands on deck thing one that's not gonna make it well the one that doesn't
work here oh oh um i don't know so also he might
okay so most Linus media group staff will be there so if you wanted to i mean
honestly one of the ideas for a booth that i was honestly thinking of was
taren tutoring people in premiere
i could totally like if i went to a convention i would definitely stop by
there i don't know if i'd stay there the whole time because i'd be like wow i want to go do other things eventually
but like yeah but like
but like if you could do like like a like a three-hour thing
or and like take questions every like half an hour or something or one idea i
had was he could actually be editing an LTT video throughout the day and you
could just ask questions and you could just ask questions and we wouldn't expect him to necessarily even finish it
that day because he'd be interrupted constantly yeah but that was another
thing that i thought might be kind of like a cool behind the scenes thing that
would otherwise be impossible to experience yeah so i would i would like that i think
that's cool that's the tech carnival
it's 30 bucks for a pass and then 75 if
you want a special edition lanyard a t-shirt and
a six-month Floatplane club membership for one week of early access oh i don't
have that screen shared um oh those are communities oh these are
canadian dollars um so yeah so that's basically like 22 us
dollars or something like that and then like 60 bucks 60 bucks u.s um and that's
actually a pretty good deal if you were gonna get Floatplane anyway because it's three bucks a month times six is
eighteen dollars a t-shirt i don't know what's that worth twenty bucks anyway we
we think the uh the big package
we think the big package is kind of the one to go for so there you go that's the explanation
um i'm gonna go look at twitch chat i'm like cringing because i'm pretty sure
hey Colton have we even sold any tickets yet yeah
Colton we have where'd he go oh he went upstairs but we have sold
tickets oh we have i know roughly how many but i don't know if we want to say
that or not sure yeah why not about 100 oh really yeah when i don't know oh
within the time the video went up and now oh cause we posted oh we posted it
on social and uh
yeah uh ticket sales how are we doing is anyone coming yeah there's like 100 150
150 now yeah oh so people are coming then yeah yeah well
how many of the really big one have we sold the the 500 vip experience
we might be getting trolled but oh we think we're getting trolled on that one
okay okay that's cool go figure so every time
that we've done one of these things like with the first blood campaign way back in the day and with the forum badges
that were like custom form badges um we've always had a
every single time exactly 500 tier that was just like ridiculous we didn't
really the first time especially we really didn't expect anyone to buy it
and for some reason someone does
every time every time so we were like okay sure this time though we were
trying to come up with something that's a little bit cooler than like um
i mean the custom badge is actually like
like that's pretty badass and you can't get them anymore so people
that do happen to have them are like they're the only ones who can get them so that's all like cool but we were
thinking if you're gonna be all the way out here uh this time that package
includes a limo ride to the office and uh and a one-on-one well one on 10 i
guess depending how many people get it there's maximum a tour yeah maximum 10.
yeah so that i think that's pretty nifty
i don't know i mean you work here every day i'm sure you wouldn't pay for it but you know i wouldn't have paid for it
anyways because i'm really cheap it's yeah i might get the one with the shirt
because i like commemorative shirts i have a few packs shirts you get a lanyard too yeah all right
anyway you know what i i'd i mean i
i never know what's going on around here anymore like i don't even know how to
check how many tickets are sold but ltx
good idea or bad idea
okay so we're going full animaniacs here okay those are the only options wow are
we abandoning turnip it's been a long time we're abandoning
turnip okay yeah i'm over it r.i.p turnip rip turn it turn up yeah turn
up's not funny anymore now that there's one in the uh sorry yeah i forgot what i
was talking about yeah okay so let's go ahead get those results up and move on
to our next news topic
okay AMD's stock price falls more than
20 in a single day you know you know how close i was to investing in AMD
when i saw how good ryzen was going to be well maybe now you should well no
because i was worried about a couple things so number one
is i wasn't sure if that's insider information yeah i don't know yeah
because it's under embargo so even though it's not like
that much of a secret there were like 400 people in the room with me
i'm not sure if that's still considered insider so i guess so if there's an nda
probably sketchy so but but what i could do is i could wait till the embargo is
lifted then it's common knowledge and then i
could just with superhuman speed i could i could buy AMD stock like the second so
so i could skirt around that but the other concern was that i've avoided
owning shares in any tech company
this whole time the entire time that since we've been independent yeah so i
did buy shares in NVIDIA once and i held them for a couple of months actually
made like a pretty good chunk of money but that wasn't based on a significant
tip or anything it was just based on kind of like the ebb and flow and i was
like yeah i really couldn't go any lower and then i did okay and i got out
because it stresses me out yeah and then i made a few bucks on ocz back when they
were like going gangbusters and i was like okay
i'll go in for and i was in for like three weeks
that's it i that's all i've ever gotten involved
in but the thing is like i i worry
that even if i disclosed it the number of people who think that i am
that i can be that i can be bought and that i can be biased by a graphics card
i mean imagine what they would think if i owned shares in the company the one
thing that i was thinking was that i could get around it by buying
everything
and just hopefully the tech industry just goes up yes yeah so if i'm just
betting on tech but then then okay you'd get the tinfoil
hats coming in there he's just talking about how amazing tech
is because it makes some money if the tech industry grows
so i've just been like you know what uh as as far as as far as high profile
companies go anyway i'm just not going to get involved but that doesn't mean
that i might not make some kind of investment in a tech company and that's
actually something that would be like a private thing that i might
might be closing soon so i would definitely be talking to you guys about
anyway shares of AMD plunged on tuesday
following a first quarter report that failed to justify the stocks 300 gain
last year whoops uh AMD reported strong results
that were in line with expectations but uh
like that's the thing is like they still lost money like what were
people expecting were they expecting AMD to go from losing what was it like 73
million in the last quarter last q one and then
they lost 29 million this time which is like a lot
better but were you expecting them to go from losing 73 million to being profitable
um but only losing
29 million dollars is still insane
well yes like oh yeah um
so there's still hope though ryzen processors had only been shipping
for one month of the quarter and vega is also slated for release sometime in q2.
naples that's where we might actually see some significant improvements if
they managed to win some big bids with naples and they managed to
uh get some design wins and like super computers or whatever the case may be
that could be a big deal and then ryzen 3 processors are also
slated for the second half of the year which could help boost up volumes
significantly because value chips that is where you are going
to be shifting units speaking of super computers i'm doing an unboxing
of a super computer next week adoring i
don't i don't know what to call it but basically this place is bananas what's
up that thing am i going not that one we're going to that one okay so we're also trying this
isn't confirmed yet they've expressed interest and they're like yeah yeah
let's do it and then like it's the all this the whole yes do it radio silence
yeah yeah but like they're into it um
but luke and i wanna go tour
um it turns out that d-wave the quantum
computer maker the the quantum computer manufacturer is based out of burnaby
british columbia yeah they're like not even a remotely far drive away no it's
like 30 minutes like i used to live there yeah um so so we've talked to them
about doing like a hands-on yeah with a quantum computer that would be pretty
cool that would be really exciting it would be dope as the kids say ah yes
dank even dank no i thought dank is bad
aren't dank memes like outdated memes no
dank memes are like super good memes
dope and dank are both good and face palm is still face pump's still
cool okay yeah so face bomb and
so much hate so much hate is getting a little old
yeah i know i know but i can say shake my head so smh is
still okay i just have to think it doesn't mean so much hate yeah
got it no problem i'm on this i'm trying to i'm trying to keep on top of it i've
got the star wars memes prequel memes i'm on top of that
good job oh you're officially the worst sidekick
ever most of them are like hello there
kenobi from grievous don't worry about it it's
fine it's fine fine fine all right the red ARM epidemic i sent out the okay i'm
gonna i'm gonna off shoot for a second here sure i sent out the like emails to
the people that were graded very highly for their resumes and stuff for the full
playing club applications and
you've got to be kidding i was reading a comment on your call for
coder's video that said that this platform is a
disaster waiting to happen and no one would be stupid enough to apply oh
there was a lot of those um one people applied you've got to be kidding me a
lot of people are fine that a huge amount of people applied it took me a
really long time to go through all their resumes um there's a lot of misconceptions as to
like how we were building the platform a lot of people think that we're doing literally every single thing in node
which is like extremely untrue i got people sending me like entire essays on
how we shouldn't be transcoding video with node and i'm like
we actually already have that part working don't know where you got that
from we're not doing that i don't i don't know uh but yeah there's a lot of
applicants a lot of really good apps there's also a lot of people telling us that we're crazy to be trying
to build okay hold on hold on hold on hold on
to be trying to build this project with one developer
yeah and i loved that you were getting labeled idea guy
yeah what's it called is called an idea man right where you have where you have like the
idea for the next great social media platform
only you don't know any coding okay so two things number one we don't say
anywhere in the video we're hiring one person we already have number two we
don't say anywhere in the video that we don't already have people yes and number
three he knows how to go a little bit i'm not i'm not as good as the people
i'm trying to hire that has been made abundantly clear um because some of you
are extremely good um but i i can do i
can do something there's more than me let's put it that way yeah i've been taking like refresher courses and stuff
i'm not going to be the boss guy that doesn't know how to code um
i still i get i get a little embarrassed by boiler sometimes when he's like okay
this is how this works and we're just like oh geez um but yeah i'm i'm gonna
be taking more refresher courses and stuff we have mr boiler cat boiler on the forums i'm
gonna call him mr boiler because catwaller is like a little awful a
little bit weird um he's a full-time employee has been for a while now he's
been working on the project for like a little bit more than six months
so it's been some work going on there yeah that's another thing you guys uh
you you guys you guys won't be able to launch this for a year and a half well
okay we're a third of the way there sounds good
we're working on it um there's there's other guys as well colonel mortis from
the forum has been helping a bunch and is going to be helping more in a little
bit from now i actually haven't sent a reply to that message but yes sounds
good there you go we'll send a more formal reply later um and there's like a
couple other people that have been putting a lot of work into this there's also another guy that we're gonna be
putting on contract very soon for like a while and hopefully making him an
employee at some point and like you are not alone yeah so yeah it's
going to be which was again infuriating and sort of hilarious because in the
video i'm like you're going to have to work with these people this whole list of people
and like why are you only hiring one person like oh my goodness
this is great this project is very naive this is coming from an experienced coder
for six years oh man
six years wow i'm so impressed wow
okay here's the other thing that people don't really seem to understand what the
project is this project is already working yes
people are so concerned because boiler's a god people are so concerned about the
financial model the project is already really working
yeah and there's like a lot more that we can
do we're going to be okay yeah like a lot of people were like genuinely
concerned that we were going to like god that we were going to take on LMG take
on youtube that is not the case now we had gone crazy that is not the goal
oh we want to be like this cool add-on so
that during these uneasy times of weird ad revenue and
like issues that people are having with their channels they can have something a
little bit more stable that they can stand on and still push as hard as
they've ever pushed to grow their youtube audience because that
will be no matter what i say or try
will be their main platform and we want it to be their main platform because the
more they grow that the more they will hopefully also grow their Floatplane
audience okay so let's totally change gears and
i don't know if i'm allowed to do this but i think i'm gonna do it anyway
uh i need to get a screenshot of that guy saying it's naive i've been i've been screenshotting a lot of people's
aggressive comments in like a while i can try to look up
their usernames and go like hey so what do you what do you think okay
do you guys want to see premiering on the when show oh my
goodness the trailer have you seen this i have
seen it i haven't seen it you haven't seen this no no trailer
okay hold on hold on i just i want to check and make sure the audio is working
i don't have my headphones here so i just want to make sure i'm on the
right playback device and everything yeah so theoretically theoretically this is
working okay all these people will see it before me because i can't even hear it teaser trailer for scrapyard wars
season five oh my goodness uh hopefully the audio is working
oh hopefully it's not too loud hopefully i yeah i don't have headphones i have no
way of knowing well whatever it'll be it'll be uploaded at some point later but here we go here we go here we go
i wonder what they're saying sorry dude
wow we look so serious that's the uh six thousand dollar part oh
yeah we were pretty serial
the hype is real cool i hope i have no idea wait so we do mention the really
expensive part well uh we don't explain oh apparently there's no audio
so everyone's in the same boat everyone's in the same boat as luke okay well you still have to what you still
have to watch the actual trailer okay okay do you okay okay hold on hold on
hold on let's hit it with a straw pole hit it with a straw pull do you guys want to
see it again with sound so why didn't it have sound actually you know what twitch
chat just let me know do do you want to see it again or like at all
pre-recorded yes of course okay yeah okay all right all right all
right all right all right all right all right i get the point i'm working on it okay okay so i'm just gonna throw it in
the butt the butt is banning everyone
stop stop spamming okay the audio is going to be the audio is going to be
kind of crap because i forgot i don't have it set up properly right now but
i'm just going to hold this up to the microphone and we'll just have to call that good enough okay run away from the
behind okay i'm sorry everybody i'm sorry everybody okay here we go here we go
here we go we're going again we're going again
hold on hold on okay make sure it's on the screen interesting yeah yeah oh no i got this i
got this i got this i got this okay okay here we go
oh wait hold on i'll get our ugly mugs out of the way okay
uh why isn't my trackpad working okay okay
uh here we go
honestly the low points of yesterday were probably the first thing
yeah probably the fight it feels like we haven't done anything
like we went to leaves and ate sandwiches which was delicious
i don't regret that kyle has some strategy he's working on right now screw
you yeah did something good today yeah so it looks like
about that seems like if we don't have another
choice we're gonna have to go for it so yeah so we have 45 minutes just get the
[ __ ] out of here
oh man
so they don't know what might have cost us six thousand dollars no they don't um
yeah so the hype the hype is super real
i know i'm so excited to hear about this fist fight i know the sound is not that
great i'm sorry but uh yeah profanity this this season
is gonna be a lot of fun um we're doing
it really differently on the post side of things you guys may or may not have
noticed we filmed like a month ago yeah that was a conscious decision real
actual like on a show work went into
mapping out the episodes so the pacing's a little bit better than before um
and the idea is that the entire season
will be pretty much cut and then every episode gets a week of
polish nice instead of like expecting the
entire episode to be edited in a week yeah cool
nice that's good that trailer would be very good that's a
pretty hyped trailer man i know the fist fight i want to see
i haven't seen the other side yeah i mean either
i have no idea there's one thing that we know about that i'm not gonna spoiler
because you guys just got enough spoilers i think um that involves kyle
that i'm so excited for we've only heard about i know we've only like yeah and
like oh my goodness i'm as excited to watch this
even though i partic even though i'll know half the story yeah is it not it's
crazy yeah all right i'll mix
i almost spoiled it a little bit okay yeah i'm not excited for it don't spoil
it the judge okay to watch it i have a crazy i have a crazy thing to ask you
okay could it be in 4k on Floatplane oh why
did why did you do that on stream i'm just curious
um probably not well i'll talk to boiler
about it but probably not having the downloads
be in 4k i think would be really brutal gotcha okay um
i will talk to boiler will he might even be watching right now
sorry boiler i'm sorry boiler
um
i'm going to leave that completely don't okay i thought you're going to do a straw poll no no i'm not doing a straw
i'll pull this if people want of course they want it even if okay even if there's no 4k drop
down option the 1080p looks great the 1080p we've
so all my friends called me they told me flow plane 1080p looks as good or better
than youtube 4k we have a it's adaptive
bit rate so like sometimes it it almost always
looks a noticeable amount better than youtube
4k but not technically always right depending on like what is going on
in the video got it yeah all right so
let's finally get back to that straw poll so okay actually that's interesting
apparently the majority of our audience does seem
to think that uh ltx is a good idea now with that said
only 840 people voted which is really not that many for
a WAN Show straw pool so if we were to put the youtube video up
if we were to add yeah it's up if we were to add people who are indifferent
who would normally vote on a straw poll right and don't then the numbers don't
look so good
but i mean realistically yeah but people being indifferent about like pax
existing is a really high percentage yeah that's true but a really high
amount of people go mm-hmm yes to be fair it's a very different
type of convention yep whereas this is more like kind of like a
casual like bro out and get together
a thousand people is so a lot of people in chat don't know what ltx is because
they weren't here at the beginning right ltx is Linus tech
expo yeah i mean even though it's not called expo yeah
it's carnival yeah don't worry about it ltc ltc i don't know but then that's a
really weird i just uh some someone walks into my office and like should we
call it this i'm like yeah okay fine ah i see so it is a convention
carnival thing that we're going to be holding very close to here where everyone can
meet us and do some cool computer related activities and maybe there will
be some brands there and yada yada and so forth all right speaking i do that to
john when you're not here oh really yeah i have to do the same thing maybe the
floor is slanted well i think i think the idea is you're right at the edge of
the table yeah and so this person naturally like floats to the edge of the
table right but that's not the right framing all right
AMD and the original article here is from gamedebate.com
no it's not in seattle we live in canada it's going to be do we know exactly
where it is langley event center yeah so it's langley event center in langley if
you live in like the the lower mainland or greater vancouver area it's pretty
easy to get to because right off the highway okay
so allegedly AMD's Radeon rx vega
specifications leaked in a Linux driver
update
all right so this is uh first update adding comprehensive vega feature
support to Linux that was issued yesterday whenever that yesterday would
have been so it depends when you're watching this but basically 14 nanometer
4096 stream processors 12.5 teraflops of performance
and that's uh 25 at fp16 okay
64 rops 256 texture mapping units eight hardware
threads a 20 48 bit memory interface so that
looks like some kind of hbm nonsense oh yeah there you go eight gigs of hbm two
okay is this real i don't know maybe maybe
not but exactly yeah it doesn't sound that far off it
doesn't sound like one of those leaks that's just like made by an AMD fanboy's gonna have like
32 gigs remember it's like we saw their announcement at
nab that is the consumer card yep no um we're still trying to get one
of those duel cards but i'm still not sure if we're going to be able to
because it's like not consumer i'm like NVIDIA like it's funny both AMD and
video are kind of funny about some cards like NVIDIA won't even respond to my
emails asking if we can borrow a titan xp
i'm just like you could just say no like and then the conversation ends hit
him up on facebook oh yeah okay i'll try that yeah okay
this is great news so the original article here is from nine to five mac i
love this because how bull crap is it
when you buy something and it breaks like right away no fault of your own you
take it to the store or worst yet the manufacturer where they
have no excuse and they give you a refurbished part
it's pretty and it's pretty freaking annoying i'd be pissed off personally it's like if i paid
yeah and it was in great condition and i'm
someone who cares about my devices and it's this one's got like
even some small scratches on it okay yes functionally it's probably the
same and sure i want to talk to anyone who will go nuclear over small scratches
but i'm not even saying that in insulting way like this this will piss people off example one of them right and
the thing about apple's devices is they're expensive they're expensive
enough that like and a lot of times they're show
pieces so scratch having scratches on it is like well that's right yeah i mean
it's not a shovel how easy do you think it would be to imagine someone out there
whose iphone costs more than their car yeah though like i probably know someone
there you go at one point in time i definitely knew something and and the
way people would freak out about a scratch on a car remember
okay i think as techies we get really
caught up in specs sometimes
and how much RAM the iphone has and how
big the screen is and whatever else and we lose track that for the mainstream
consumer it is a fairly normal thing
to spend a lot of money on stuff for the sake of demonstrating to the people
around you that you could have afforded to spend a lot of money on something
at case in point yeezys okay yeah i didn't even i i
didn't even hear about yeezys till like three months ago
yeah i had no idea they were a thing i had even i had even skimmed over the
what's inside yeezys video that got them so much hate and i
was just like yeah i'm not okay not interested like i
just kind of went by it i was like oh that's got a lot of views i'm like yeah
whatever and what i discovered
is that like my badminton group there's multiple people there
that buy yeezys used like they'll like they'll be
trolling the used market for yeezys buying them for like four hundred
dollars like keeping them in like as good condition
as they bought them in and then selling them for like a bit more like they're
they're like they're like turning a small profit on
their yeezys so they can afford the yeezy lifestyle
and i'm kind of sitting here like what
what what my shoes cost like a hundred dollars have four places in each shoe in
the identical spot on each shoe where there is very large significant rips
okay and i'm not going to replace them
that's not going to happen how many times do you think i've replaced my
sandals since you met me i think once
and it was because like they were in critical damage yeah they came apart yes
and want to hear something really crazy i still have those
they sit by the back door so i have shoes to throw on when i go outside the
white runners that i had when we first started working together are i think in
the front of this office as like just in case Channel Super Fun shoes nice yeah
yeah see that is the way to be all right speaking
of dirty dirty people we are going to
jump into our uh oh anyway sorry we never actually talked about this
so a dutch court rules that apple cannot supply refurbished or remanufactured
ipads um as warranty replacements so when
someone in the chat is what the bleep is a yeezy
you're the winner there you go um okay so apple refurbished products
are ones that have been sold and later returned to the company they are returned to as new standard and given
the same warranty as brand new devices
and they are either used for warranty replacements or made available for sale the typical discount of around 14 to 15
percent remanufactured are newly manufactured
but may include used parts harvested from broken ones so neither of them are
considered okay now there are multiple angles on this
there's kind of an environmental perspective i guess but personally i
don't really buy that you know apple is protecting the
environment by giving remanufactured devices for more
of them at a 15 discount because a lot of it is the the status symbol or maybe
drop your discount a little more yeah 20 if apple was like look this is
remanufactured 50 off they wouldn't be able to keep them in stock so it's not a
matter of like they're you know they would have to manufacture more ipads and
destroy the earth it's just a matter of them not wanting to do it yeah
um okay i do want to do our response yeah
someone in the chat said just put a case on it and like i agree spend 15 less and
get a case on it or buy it new have it break
not your fault and get a new one again but you got to understand that not
everybody feels that way some people are gonna want to rock a naked red or jet
black iphone to show that they've got the red one or the jet black one
people probably don't pose like this with the jet black one it's probably more like
probably businessy stuff yeah yeah yeah
yeah you got it what is it steel panther or something
i don't know what that's called steel panther it's from some movie where the
guy is like a model and he has this like pose that he strikes oh but then he he
gets like a whole bunch of different poses and calls them all different things but they're actually just the
same thing oh i see it's just this like way that he looks at the camera it's
fantastic all right so blue steel someone in the
chat said it there we go steel steel yeah all right sponsor number one fiverr

what you got there i just don't know if we're allowed to talk about that uh
valve limits steam's gifting system without any warning valve has been doing
things that don't make every single gamer on the planet happy lately which
is weird valve announced that several changes to steam's gifting system will happen
before users on steam could purchase a game as a gift and store that copy in
their inventory for later use when sending games users could either deliver
the gift directly through steam or attach it to an email through the client
if you weren't friends with the giftee in the service with the changes you
cannot store gifts for future use you just when purchasing a game you already
own you're forced to choose a recipient of the gift at the time when it will be
delivered so like immediately sending games through email is now impossible
and it is now possible it is possible however to schedule a game to be
delivered months in advance which is possibly how people can like pre-order
things i'm not entirely sure or so you can like pick a gift for someone
yeah and have it scheduled and have it show up at the right time but it's on
payment collectors have often used steam's gift inventory to store and
trade copies of de-listed steam titles that's possibly why this is a thing uh
these changes will also affect users who trade and sell steam gifts on
third-party websites that's probably why they're doing it
gifts you have already stored will not be affected so tell me something
if you were to buy a steam game for someone else
would that be an animated gift
no animated gift i know i got it i got it
yeah that's right sorry i don't really have anything to contribute to that i mean it
sucks but i understand why they're doing it yeah so there's
not really much to say it's just like more hoops to jump through in order to
give something to someone sucks but i see why they're doing it yeah okay
is there like is there a reason for so many of you guys have been asking to
meet the new writers so um i guess i'm kicking you out for
like five minutes oh i didn't see you i was like but that's only two of them
yeah no no okay no that's fine so their probation officially ends um
tomorrow so i've decided that you know
while it might seem a little cruel
um normally we don't allow people on camera during their probation because
you know we don't want you guys to get all attached to them and then we end up kind of axing them so while it might
seem a little cruel to finally let them meet you and seem as though i am
validating their futures here as employees
um to only like ask them the next day i'm
gonna let them meet you so uh well i was gonna say like if they do bad on the
show you could still fire them that's true i still have i still have about 36
hours so uh who's first
one yes well okay you don't have to be one by one i guess okay well then get get in
here the framing is only so wide though so you're gonna have to kind of you're gonna have to kind of cram in here
yeah i would maybe do one by one okay so this is james
uh james is a uh james is a young man with a okay hold on
it's a great future ahead of him not at LMG
why do you look like you're so much taller than me i'm like cold and sized
on this thing oh because the chair is luke sized
anyway okay come on in here so tell them about yourself who the hell are you
well i'm james i'm uh
i'm the punny guy here i guess i'm the one that makes all the worst
puns in all the videos you're agreeing
it's a mantle that i kind of took from you so i wasn't sure that you were going to hand that off i'm i'm totally cool
with making you the pun king
not that i would ever not that i would ever want you to feel like i'm punking
you
way to punch me below the bell yeah yeah okay so basically uh james has been
responsible for such recent projects as the lg 5k monitor
um the sennheiser mic underwater mic the underwater mic
um an upcoming RGB build guide project
that we're going to be filming next week oh snap that's going to be dank af i
thought that was a surprise um oh okay
people shouldn't be surprised yeah they should be watching for a while admit it
to yourself yeah what else what else have you even done is that it
yeah i've only had three videos three assignments the entire time oh crap i've
been here okay well that's awkward yeah so uh i did the airpods video i did the
you did not i did oh one of the airpods
videos cheap airpods alternatives
i did the digital storm gaming ultra wide
okay so yeah thanks good job james so you'll see james around more
at least for the next 36 hours okay Anthony you're up next
sure oh yeah if you guys have questions for them fire up fire them over to luke
james isn't actually running away yet maybe they'll all come in so Anthony want to talk about yourself who are you
you're twitch chat i am Anthony i come from newfoundland and i read about
things
that was a good thing
see this is the result of me giving them like hard word count limits
they end up they end up losing track of how to communicate in long form
dang it man okay so what have been some of your favorite projects that you've worked on
uh as much of a pain as they were the AMD
releases obviously like the riser release the rx 500 series
uh really tight deadlines on those but
we got it out thanks AMD yeah
so much fun every time an AMD project lands on my
lap i just know that i'm in for like the next couple of like 24 or 48 hours is
just gonna be wonderful yeah um also responsible for the highly
controversial verizon five simulation project
not the titling of it that was me but the actual data that ended up being
extremely accurate that was Anthony so
uh there you go you'll be seeing more of Anthony around now as well maybe even on
Channel Super Fun since these guys are are officially i mean a few of them have
appeared already anyway but i kind of turned a blind eye because i was pretty sure they were going to make it but
you'll see more of Anthony soon and uh all right alex you're up
or fired keep him or fired okay for everyone so far that is like the only
thing going on okay can you introduce yourself with your newfie accent because
it's awesome i don't have a newfie accent i'm not even from there he's
actually from there okay whatever your eastern canadian accent it's all sounds
the same to me like what do you mean you did it on the phone during your
interview don't pretend you can't do it i don't know i don't want to be put on
the spot like that oh come on your job depends on advancement you
can't fight i don't know like people are saying that
he has a crazy accent already anyways really yeah him yeah
i don't know like like what are you talking about it's like
okay so this is alex alex who are you
um i don't know i came from nova scotia
newfoundland oh my god Colton's coming down
car
take me to the bar in your car did they put the bar in your car
i don't get it but anyway uh
what what are they saying they want to know if you race nascar but that actually leads well into something that
you do do yeah i used to build dune buggies and
stuff and now i'm here i guess i
i wouldn't say i dropped out of mechanical engineering but i stopped going before i completed it and
now i'm making youtube videos so
oh yeah go ahead oh what are you going to say including some of our most
controversial videos so alex has been responsible for a lot of our system
stuff including the latest xps 15 the MSI trident their super tiny pc
and the sketchy heatsink series including
the most recent effort with the uh the casting and the uh and the 60 of a work
week of like three employees that got consumed by that by that video
yeah that um i kind of knew how it was going to turn
out right from the start if i'm honest oh well that's good honestly that's new
i no no one told me how that was going to turn out so that's great
well i don't know like you said that you modeled this off of talk here have you ever watched when they try to do
something legit
like would you have preferred that we made something that was like half
terrible or all the way terrible
i'm not gonna answer that question because i'm afraid of what i'm gonna end
up with in the future um alex was also responsible for our
most controversial video other than the uh the ryzen simulation one in the last
little while the thousand dollar build guide that went up the other night oh a
lot of people didn't like your part selections there
no comment so basically what i'll say is this um we
knew that that build wasn't perfect because right at the time that we were
like okay we need to get build guides back on the rails and we like got a
thousand dollar build guide going AMD dropped the news on us that ryzen 5 was
like coming but it was so far out that we already had some stuff like coming in
for the build guide and so it was too far to stretch it out and then
working with these guys and traveling so much has been really busy we didn't get
it shot until like by the time we got it shot
the 580 was not out
but was about to be announced to us we didn't know it was
coming yet um and ryzen 5
probably was gonna make more sense but it was too late
um yeah the selections for that were picked in like
january pretty much um well no it was after that because it was after you
started so it was like march like early march late february or something like
that so the reality of it is could we have done
better yes but i also think that a lot of the hate was undeserved we had one
thousand dollar budget build guide in the title that meant one thousand dollar
budget not one thousand dollar
budget build guide we did remove the word budget because i can see where the
confusion came from but it was a thousand dollar machine and it was a
thousand dollars based on what we won't do next time but based on
regular pricing like not the cheapest one we could find
not taking advantage of mail-in rebates and just like what you could definitely
build for a thousand dollars yeah the no rebates thing actually adds up fast yeah
uh the other thing was that by the time we were shooting it
neither of us was really in a position to go okay
we're gonna do a build guide it's gonna have ryzen five this platform is rock
solid but by the time it got edited
verizon has matured a lot
yeah so that's what happened there that's why he's not fired thank you alex
um so luke did you have any questions that people compiled you guys want to
i'll kind of pile in here and stand here literally literally nothing literally no
useful questions brilliant thank you everyone
a lot of people wanted to keep alex and
then it came out that he was responsible for the thousand dollar build guide and
then the tone shifted a little bit oh oh okay but then after the explanation i
think it got a little bit better again okay all right good work all right thank
you guys cool so you'll see him around as well
all right so yeah that's basically been what i've
been up to for the last six months in addition to covering his ass because
he's been busy creating Floatplane club hooray it is
actually it has been an exhausting resume like half a year yeah it's
actually been an exhausting four and a half years is what it's really been yeah
but um
yeah that's an entirely separate thing
all right what else do we have oh there was also by the way i should mention
there was also a lot of requests for drop and break stuff girl
oh max max is on vacation so i'm just
permanent vacation oh wrecked she doesn't know it yet
that's a little mean no she's just on vacation she she had a pre-booked thing
and she uh so even though she doesn't technically have vacation time yet we uh
arranged her to be able to go on her thing cool all right so
the surface laptop aimed at students wait that was last
week's news wasn't it uh hold on i thought why is this the source
for wait what's going on here
i thought this was uh i thought this was rumors about
oh no the surface laptop oh yeah okay so it's a 13 and a half inch laptop
featuring the microsoft three by two aspect ratio it's a pixel sense display
it's got one usb 3 port mini dp wow would have really preferred to see that
as a uh as a as a type c usb with with dp it's
got a headphone jack though so that's a plus magnetic power connector it's 2.76
pounds so it's pretty darn light and it's got a magnesium body with a fabric
surface palm rest area that's a terrible idea in theory but uh i we will be
getting one so i will get my hands on one soon it's available in several
colors there's some like synth fabrics that might do okay
yeah i doubt it but the way with the way that like hand oils can burn away
metal i'm not holding up a lot of hope yeah we'll
see um the os is the new Windows 10 s
edition which stands for school and this version of Windows can only run
Windows store apps so basically um
enjoy so school so that you don't get to
learn how to use a lot of really important applications yeah uh Windows
ask can be converted to Windows 10 pro however okay
all right the keyboard area is the same felt material from the surface pro it
also forces you to feel good edge and bing
well probably unless you um upgrade to pro so specs you can get a core i5 or i7
u-series processor up to 16 gigs of lpddr3
up to 512 gigs of storage and it boasts 14 and a half hours of battery life
starting at 9.99
okay you're three dollars and you have to use edge and bing
so your thoughts are not great
your thoughts are this is not much of a chromebook competitor yeah okay then
do you have any counter arguments i'm really i okay so there's things that i
already hate about it um like a laptop
so with the surface pro the thing about it is that it's a tablet i don't expect
the keyboard to be used all the time i don't expect it to experience the same
kind of wear that a laptop would so i accept the fabric on the keyboard
surface this i'm not sure um this remains to be seen
so i i at that price i i don't
personally think that the chromebook is is being threatened in any significant
way but um Windows store apps like not everyone that goes to school only needs
to use word like there's some there's some things for
stem fields that you might want to have apps that probably aren't on the Windows
store for um so limiting school laptops
to only the Windows store sounds like limiting school laptops to making money
not limiting school laptops to school there is one app that i download from
the Windows store plex
okay why not the server
yeah yeah just because that's the plex client for Windows oh yeah you can't
just go download it not to my knowledge maybe you can but i mean the the Windows
store one like works fine plex you should let people if you don't already
yeah you'll let people just download it i could be wrong it's just that i'm not
it's not a bit that's definitely the easiest one to find so i just i use it
and it works it works fine with that said i've been having an issue with plex
where um you know i probably won't get into that
anyways anyways oh this is good this is
rich posted by mr meerkat on the forum the original article is from pc gamer
Intel tells core i7 7700k owners to stop
overclocking to avoid high temps
it's like they don't want to be popular yeah so owners of Intel's core i7 7700
and 7700k processors have been complaining for the past three months of
unusual temperature increases of
of up 90 degrees celsius i'm assuming they mean of up to 90 degrees celsius
and not the temperature increase like the total goes to 90 degrees celsius
and also that's pretty close to the maximum threshold of 100 degrees and you
don't really want your processor to run at 90 all the time so basically Intel's response we don't
recommend running outside the processor specifications like exceeding frequency
or voltage specifications or removing of the integrated heat spreader i mean it's
frustrating because like Intel creates this problem for
themselves by marketing a k unlocked and overclockable CPU and then putting
insufficient tim on it so
i don't really feel that bad for them not really a difficult problem to solve
either yeah well it might be difficult but for
reasons we might not necessarily understand like it
it may be difficult to solder that for some reason i don't really know if i
i said may really really really strong emphasis on
may yeah well we can't say not you can't say it's not difficult there might be
something difficult about it yes uh oh this is interesting ultra hd blu-ray
disc encryption has been crack soared
so the original poster on the form was herodias and it seems to have come from
this reddit thread so smurfs 2 is apparently the first
cracked 4k blu-ray disc um and
you might be able to get it somewhere i'm not going to spend too much time on
the slash piracy right this was accomplished by cracking the encryption
on the drive itself and not through like stripping hdcp
with capture method which is actually pretty intense wow yeah that's crazy
yeah so that means you would need a specialized to drive and yeah like it
also means that you could do it to all of them though okay so
hit me with this piracy groups
they care about
they care about like putting their name on like a release
yeah and like taking credit for it why like is there's no commercial
benefit to that right it's rep it's rep
yeah ah like we did this
yeah so they wouldn't so so okay so let's say i think hypothetical piracy
group creates a master drive that can read and and and
rip any blu-ray so do they actually go
spend their money to go buy blu-rays to rip them and
release them for like rep and do they not share their their
encryption breaking method so other people can load it on their drive so
they can have all the rep it sort of depends
uh which group i would assume
because some groups might be like open source thumpers where they think that
there shouldn't be any encryption on anything and they want everything to be open so
in that sense they would open up how they broke the drive sure and then also
use the drives to break a whole bunch of stuff or they're just like yar har pirates
and they're like we want to be known as the best freaking pirates ever
cool okay got it i understand i'm assuming ish these things
okay let's talk about the uh starcraft source code so this was originally
posted by rezkovlinkov on the forum and this article on
mashable gets a couple of things right so
they've got that there was someone they've got that
some something was found they've got what it was the original starcraft
source code and they've got right that blizzard was involved yep there was
definitely a shower that occurred but it was not gifts
nope this is actually insane so back in
2000 a disc containing the starcraft
source code was stolen from blizzard forcing them to start from scratch
a month ago a random reddit user chem kemist kimeist
bought a bunch of blizzard crap on ebay including a disc labeled starcraft
goldmaster source code chemist handed it to blizzard and
received hit me with this and i'm gonna okay i'm
gonna look i'm gonna start as excited as i would be about what kind of reward i
might say so this is like you taking it out of the box essentially right this is me handing it to you this is me handing
it to you i'm like well no you're receiving it no no you're
a blizzard you're you're giving stuff to me oh you're giving me the thing yeah
i'm giving you the thing i'm like okay i'm amped okay i'm like i'm giving you the box back you start
opening it at the very top is a copy of overwatch
then there's some overwatch in diablo swag
then there's 250 dollars in blizzard store credit
then there's a free trip to blizzcon and then there's the bottom of the box
and the box is like thin and not very nice and it's just general gray cardboard
it's not like a cool one-off branded box
okay so here's the thing
the disc was stolen property yes it is the
property of blizzard and chemist had no business
no right keeping it yeah but what the disc also was
was for someone who let's say for example was enough of a blizzard nerd to
be buying blizzard paraphernalia on ebay
it was an utterly unique item oh yeah it
was absolutely an incredibly cool piece of blizzard paraphernalia
that would have had aside from the monetary value
incredible sentimental value sentimental value that
goes way beyond what would you even buy
with 250 dollars of blizzard store credit some skins skins
get real okay maybe some months of wow some
overwatch and diablo swag you couldn't even scrounge up some starcraft swag
and a trip to blizzcon which is like okay but what he or she should have
gotten is something utterly
unique something retro something that
goes way back to like that weird game blizzard made where you
like shoot chickens or something or like do you know about that game i don't
think so that's when i probably heard the name when i saw a blizzard logo on it when i was like it's like ancient
yeah uh i was like really i used to like one of the really old games lost vikings
anyway it was a great game what he should have gotten they
shouldn't have even given him money because i don't we're hurt that's not
what this was about they're buying this type of stuff that's probably not a huge
concern it should have been a freaking life-sized golden
okay like a statue and like a tour yes of their facilities it should have
been way cooler blizzard
you done goofed on this one he's a huge starcraft fan if they have any like game
designers from starcraft like have them meet up with him at blizzard because the
thing okay thing about these game companies is they have this crap they
build this crap all the time for cons and stuff like i guarantee you there's a
life-size carrigan somewhere yeah
somewhere in blizzard's office there's a life-size carrigan or failing that a hydrolisk or
something someone in the chat is like they should have released wow legacy servers for his
efforts that would have been pretty cool yeah if he cared that would have been
unrelated though yeah so um
there you go we're disappoint but uh maybe you guys disagree i don't i don't
think that's even remotely fair like looking at just pure monetary value of
what he got if he just flipped it on ebay
okay sorry i'm just i'm cringing so hard at the switch comment i have to i have
to i'll get into it i'll get into it later go ahead go ahead
yeah that's the only place golden has ever existed
um but uh like just pure monetary value of the
stuff that he got is worth way less than if he just reflipped it on ebay yep
which is like again again again he should have given it back it was a
stolen item but like but blizzard just should have recognized the appropriate
response to this yeah and this is terrible uh so
pure ownage who must be like old-school internet
enough to know what pure knowledge is unless you just don't and you just like
read it somewhere or just put it uh Linus plays wow he knows about gul'Dan
well Dan's in warcraft orcs and humans yeah gul'Dan's like og warcraft golden's
like a pretty big deal i mean the lore has changed somewhat
like gul'Dan's role in everything and like and like the funny thing this is
what's great about old the movie was weird for that too yeah so if you guys remember i never watched it i don't yeah
i heard um the thing that's weird about old old games um and warcraft was a
great example of this where every unit on both sides orcs and humans was
equivalent so a grunt was exactly
identical to a footman or i don't even know if they were called
footmen in warcraft orcs and humans but whatever the spearman was exactly
identical to the spear thrower um
or what were they arch whatever it's not the point um the point is the campaigns
were identical so even though the lore was that the
orcs like kick their butts
if you play the human campaign
i don't does medev even die like
i don't remember but there's like there's like events that are just not
right because the missions are identical yeah
down both paths so i think on the orc side you like
gul'Dan's gone crazy and you have to go kill him and on the human side yeah
medev does die on the human side medev goes crazy and you have to kill him it's
just like totally equivalent stuff but yes no i know see but in orcs and humans they
didn't read anything out yet you had to uh you had to read the text right there
wasn't voice acting um oh yeah oh voice acting yeah yeah okay so he's
saying medivh wrong because of that oh no he doesn't play well oh yeah then
that furthers your point yeah i only i only know who thank you medivh is from
warcraft orcs you read it and it looks like medivh yeah sorry
all right
there was a couple comments oh reddit says yesterday i got another call they
invited me to blizzcon all expense paid dinner and drinks with the staff okay
that's okay i still would have wanted a unique so they probably did that because
everyone was like what or maybe they planned it let's give
benefit of the doubt but they still should give him a life-size carrigan i'm
not going to be happy till he has a life-size caregiver he should be able to like pick
yeah pretty much whatever character yes life size any character yeah
all right that's great i love this okay uh matt
whatever oh king04 you're officially my favorite how young
is Linus that is the way to ask that question
and i'm 30 years young thank you old
and it's such a weird way of saying that i know it's such an insecure like
way of saying yeah so stupid you say old when you're two so
you're 10 years old
this couch uh still exists
um at the badminton center that i play at
yeah one of my buddies was like opening up a badminton center when um
when we moved in here and decided we didn't want the couch yeah he needed a
couch and funny story he happened to have bought one of that exact couch oh
wow and was gonna go back and get another one when i was like yo do you need a couch
that's pretty fantastic sometimes life is funny
