00:00:00.199 --> 00:00:07.680
welcome to Tech Showdown episode two if you're not familiar with the format you

00:00:04.560 --> 00:00:10.880
can one yes one also you can click that

00:00:07.680 --> 00:00:13.320
corner that's one this is two basically

00:00:10.880 --> 00:00:19.480
what we do is we take a theme and we build a computer around that theme with

00:00:16.240 --> 00:00:22.359
a very limited budget and very limited

00:00:19.480 --> 00:00:28.679
time and today's theme is a future a future or the future future

00:00:25.720 --> 00:00:35.120
future future so let's see what's in our future or not right now yeah I think

00:00:33.000 --> 00:00:40.239
mine is similar okay let's

00:00:37.079 --> 00:00:42.879
go so the idea behind Tech Showdown is

00:00:40.239 --> 00:00:47.079
that neither of the participants other than the secret ingredient which is the

00:00:44.800 --> 00:00:53.359
theme of the future knows what the other is doing but I think based on very

00:00:50.879 --> 00:00:59.320
cryptic conversations with Luke that we've both taken a worst case

00:00:56.719 --> 00:01:08.200
scenario interpretation of the future and run with that today and while I

00:01:03.120 --> 00:01:08.200
think on some whoops I'm I'm

00:01:08.840 --> 00:01:16.159
okay dang it while I think it's

00:01:13.479 --> 00:01:22.520
impossible for us to actually have come up with the same

00:01:18.080 --> 00:01:25.119
idea he thinks the same thing so do two

00:01:22.520 --> 00:01:30.680
impossibilities make a possibility

00:01:27.320 --> 00:01:32.119
no unless they do man like I don't know

00:01:30.680 --> 00:01:36.360
the viewers are going to be in on it the whole time if we're building the same

00:01:33.960 --> 00:01:42.360
computer I don't think it's impossible though oh you have got to be kidding me

00:01:38.880 --> 00:01:44.960
I don't have my orange screwdriver kill

00:01:42.360 --> 00:01:49.479
me now Jake maybe he borrowed it sometimes he

00:01:47.600 --> 00:01:53.600
borrows it he's not allowed to but he does it anyway

00:01:51.799 --> 00:01:59.280
yes success okay um so he's building his

00:01:56.960 --> 00:02:04.840
computer already I'm actually I'm quite a ways away away from that I have some

00:02:01.560 --> 00:02:08.000
work to do on the case before I can

00:02:04.840 --> 00:02:12.200
start on that now last tech

00:02:08.000 --> 00:02:14.720
Showdown I was heavily reliant on

00:02:12.200 --> 00:02:19.800
something I had never done before being executed with a reasonable degree of

00:02:16.840 --> 00:02:26.920
skill um it was almost an entirely glitter themed PC for

00:02:23.120 --> 00:02:29.959
today I'm going back to skills that may

00:02:26.920 --> 00:02:34.200
not be fresh in my mind but at least I

00:02:29.959 --> 00:02:36.440
have scissors construction

00:02:34.200 --> 00:02:42.640
paper and glue sticks the label maker is key my

00:02:39.959 --> 00:02:47.560
friend open

00:02:44.319 --> 00:02:50.879
Josh why is the case derping Josh I

00:02:47.560 --> 00:02:54.400
blame you for any problems that happened

00:02:50.879 --> 00:02:58.360
today this this this is our color

00:02:54.400 --> 00:02:58.360
palette for the day

00:02:58.760 --> 00:03:01.760
welcome

00:03:03.120 --> 00:03:08.730
I'm going to spell out my theme but not

00:03:06.400 --> 00:03:12.040
actually in

00:03:12.040 --> 00:03:19.080
order there you go that is my Bleak

00:03:15.760 --> 00:03:21.760
future I'm going to reveal to the camera

00:03:19.080 --> 00:03:26.850
just because it seems surprisingly likely that he's gone

00:03:24.599 --> 00:03:28.680
with a similar

00:03:28.680 --> 00:03:35.720
theme you got to get away get get away

00:03:33.840 --> 00:03:41.159
run run run

00:03:38.360 --> 00:03:46.799
run I really hope he's not also doing this

00:03:43.120 --> 00:03:49.200
okay oh man I'm just kind of scattered

00:03:46.799 --> 00:03:55.680
right now I'm going to I got to get my thoughts together my my future is so

00:03:51.760 --> 00:03:58.439
depressing that uh it's hard to even

00:03:55.680 --> 00:04:02.000
execute any like it's not even really funny the first thing we're going to

00:04:00.519 --> 00:04:08.920
need is a striped a striped color

00:04:05.439 --> 00:04:12.239
scheme on the one side panel

00:04:08.920 --> 00:04:15.400
here because it's all about it's all

00:04:12.239 --> 00:04:19.239
about the uh the greatness the greatness

00:04:15.400 --> 00:04:22.280
of the effect of This Magnificent

00:04:19.239 --> 00:04:26.080
event and I really hope that I bought

00:04:22.280 --> 00:04:28.720
enough construction paper and I'm really

00:04:26.080 --> 00:04:33.080
not sure I went and I returned some of the white sheets

00:04:30.320 --> 00:04:41.039
at the last second uh not realizing um what colors I would need so

00:04:38.680 --> 00:04:46.880
I need a straight edge um Luke do you have the level all right yep that'll

00:04:44.080 --> 00:04:52.560
work and now I just need a pencil how do I even get

00:04:49.560 --> 00:04:52.560
in

00:04:52.880 --> 00:05:04.840
oh why is it such a piece of sh God damn it why is it so

00:05:01.240 --> 00:05:07.600
what a sh way to waste time with a can

00:05:04.840 --> 00:05:10.759
of primer that we had at work I should have just trusted the paint I

00:05:19.880 --> 00:05:24.400
brought do racist jokes fit into your

00:05:28.479 --> 00:05:31.479
theme

00:05:34.560 --> 00:05:40.080
trying to open it I don't have I don't have scissors

00:05:45.160 --> 00:05:55.279
C I don't have scissors excuse me John yeah oh my

00:05:58.479 --> 00:06:05.759
God all oh measuring tape Luke can I have a

00:06:03.000 --> 00:06:10.080
measuring tape uh see the advantage to being on that side is that you actually

00:06:07.560 --> 00:06:15.400
have easy access to most of the tools the disadvantage is that you have to

00:06:11.360 --> 00:06:19.479
hand me the tools oh

00:06:15.400 --> 00:06:24.000
wow hey I'll show you how I can grab

00:06:19.479 --> 00:06:24.000
things the better to grab you with my

00:06:28.240 --> 00:06:36.319
dear um do you mean like it's not allowed because we're both

00:06:33.319 --> 00:06:41.520
men oh maybe we have the same

00:06:36.319 --> 00:06:46.000
future okay oh my goodness I have burned

00:06:41.520 --> 00:06:49.000
like 20 minutes cutting out six

00:06:46.000 --> 00:06:51.199
Stripes this is not

00:06:49.000 --> 00:06:56.560
good I didn't even measure how many I needed I might have cut extra oh what am

00:06:52.840 --> 00:06:56.560
I doing I think I cut

00:06:57.280 --> 00:07:03.479
extra um what about them where I don't

00:07:01.479 --> 00:07:06.199
know okay I might have to start going a little faster but if I'm planning to

00:07:04.680 --> 00:07:11.240
overlap them I actually don't really need them to be that precise at all so

00:07:08.599 --> 00:07:15.720
I've been wasting time either way D I'm speeding up this is how it was

00:07:13.759 --> 00:07:20.599
with the glitter I got faster just in time to not need to do it anymore we're

00:07:17.800 --> 00:07:24.800
going to have what would look like a pretty

00:07:21.879 --> 00:07:30.599
traditional um stars and stripes kind of arrangement here but in the corner I'm

00:07:27.919 --> 00:07:37.680
going to put the face Trump oh yeah oh he's

00:07:35.000 --> 00:07:42.720
beautiful he's beautiful

00:07:39.199 --> 00:07:44.120
wait it's red and white right okay we're

00:07:42.720 --> 00:07:49.280
just we're going to have to approximate it all right here we go I'm going for

00:07:47.039 --> 00:07:55.159
gold for my next trick I'm going to add more glue in

00:07:53.280 --> 00:07:58.840
retrospect I think it may have been better to start at the bottom I mean

00:07:57.000 --> 00:08:02.960
does this stuff set like instantly or what

00:08:00.479 --> 00:08:07.319
holy crap I'm going to start building them from the bottom up I don't even

00:08:05.280 --> 00:08:11.360
remember what color I started with anymore I don't know when this thing is

00:08:15.199 --> 00:08:21.400
ready going to take that as a

00:08:18.360 --> 00:08:22.599
no how long does it take okay I'm just

00:08:21.400 --> 00:08:28.759
going to wait for this to heat up and try to do something else so careful of that

00:08:25.479 --> 00:08:32.680
Brandon it's going to be very hot is

00:08:28.759 --> 00:08:35.800
this even going be enough oh my

00:08:32.680 --> 00:08:40.800
God I'm cutting my sand right

00:08:35.800 --> 00:08:40.800
now cuz I need that to be done

00:08:44.399 --> 00:08:52.680
first I'm just short I don't have the

00:08:49.160 --> 00:08:53.839
corners it might be okay

00:08:53.839 --> 00:09:00.680
because I bought

00:08:57.160 --> 00:09:02.399
uh this stuff

00:09:00.680 --> 00:09:09.800
so I might be able to Like Glue in that right

00:09:07.040 --> 00:09:15.720
there is this thing not plugged in oh my God that's the problem holy sh this

00:09:13.399 --> 00:09:21.360
stupid extension cord isn't plugged in is this stuff supposed to make your

00:09:17.800 --> 00:09:21.360
eyes burn super

00:09:22.040 --> 00:09:27.800
glue all right so this is pretty good but we're going to do some more I'm

00:09:25.920 --> 00:09:32.519
especially going to try to hit the sides up cuz I don't really know how they're

00:09:29.880 --> 00:09:42.040
doing at this point try to work some some golden magic

00:09:37.680 --> 00:09:42.040
here I'm going to hit up the white here

00:09:47.680 --> 00:09:56.480
again someone's going to leave a message being like wow he's doing that so

00:09:53.399 --> 00:09:58.120
wrong I'm a professional I've been doing

00:09:56.480 --> 00:10:01.279
it for 5 years

00:10:00.240 --> 00:10:05.519
hey foam boards look at it fused

00:10:06.399 --> 00:10:09.399
together

00:10:28.040 --> 00:10:31.040
whoa

00:10:33.440 --> 00:10:35.880
how's that

00:10:51.600 --> 00:10:57.480
look Bob is going to kill me Bob's going to be like Luke you're an idiot and I'm

00:10:55.639 --> 00:11:03.480
going to be like Bob I'm sorry Bob I don't know what I'm doing

00:11:00.399 --> 00:11:05.480
Rod's going to be like this is why we

00:11:03.480 --> 00:11:08.480
lost no

00:11:09.399 --> 00:11:18.959
no that was a mistake too wasn't it now it's too

00:11:15.079 --> 00:11:18.959
liquidy I'm just ruining

00:11:25.160 --> 00:11:30.959
everything no

00:11:42.399 --> 00:11:48.639
what is all this God damn it I just

00:11:57.959 --> 00:12:00.959
lost

00:12:12.800 --> 00:12:20.199
okay now we have a design decision to

00:12:16.680 --> 00:12:22.680
make when we tried to fix the white it

00:12:20.199 --> 00:12:28.920
got all this crap in it when I sprayed the top of the case I guess that paint

00:12:26.519 --> 00:12:34.839
is very dusty and it leaves a lot of r Rock like dust in the air and you can

00:12:32.160 --> 00:12:40.440
see there's a bunch of that crap in the white and it doesn't look good so I'm

00:12:37.639 --> 00:12:44.959
going to try to get a bunch of it off in the most delicate way I can which is not

00:12:42.279 --> 00:12:53.560
very delicate and uh then I'm going to try to start over I

00:12:49.519 --> 00:12:57.199
guess try to like sand this panel or

00:12:53.560 --> 00:12:57.199
something and I'm running

00:12:57.839 --> 00:13:00.839
out

00:13:04.519 --> 00:13:06.959
I work

00:13:15.800 --> 00:13:22.160
out the super glue is a little bit crazier than I had

00:13:19.720 --> 00:13:29.880
hoped okay so this is the wall this is the wall that separates

00:13:25.920 --> 00:13:32.440
Mexico and the US that apparently Mexico

00:13:29.880 --> 00:13:32.440
is going to pay

00:13:37.560 --> 00:13:42.440
for maybe blue painters tape wasn't the

00:13:40.560 --> 00:13:47.800
greatest idea that's still very visible isn't it

00:13:45.760 --> 00:13:51.800
back to square one again not like we're not used to

00:13:55.440 --> 00:14:00.759
that perfect done okay let's go

00:14:08.320 --> 00:14:14.399
there we go oh that side panel though

00:14:16.560 --> 00:14:20.320
wait oh

00:14:24.360 --> 00:14:30.160
no it's upside

00:14:27.360 --> 00:14:37.440
down oh no okay think Linus maybe if I could

00:14:34.240 --> 00:14:37.440
peel up the whole

00:14:38.240 --> 00:14:45.160
thing and I could put the whole thing back

00:14:41.959 --> 00:14:47.920
on the other way hold on a second let's

00:14:45.160 --> 00:14:52.199
think about this is it better upside down like if the idea is that I've kind

00:14:50.440 --> 00:14:58.680
of designed a new flag with the portrait of the grand

00:14:54.560 --> 00:14:59.759
leader here is upside down okay okay

00:14:58.680 --> 00:15:05.320
okay you know what we're going to call that intentional editors cut out the

00:15:02.040 --> 00:15:08.480
part where I realized that it was upside

00:15:05.320 --> 00:15:08.480
down for the other

00:15:09.720 --> 00:15:16.000
side I don't want Windows right Windows

00:15:16.279 --> 00:15:24.759
represent people being able to come into your

00:15:20.199 --> 00:15:27.759
country so instead of a window I'm going

00:15:24.759 --> 00:15:29.839
to have a wall a red white and green

00:15:27.759 --> 00:15:36.639
wall it's going to look a little something like this yeah that's right

00:15:33.920 --> 00:15:39.959
I'm going to need my hot glue I actually grabbed my own hot glue gun just in case

00:15:38.440 --> 00:15:42.399
Luke was going to be reliant on the hot glue as

00:15:42.560 --> 00:15:51.079
well also it was adorable look at this

00:15:46.319 --> 00:15:54.040
thing no unfortunately no but definitely

00:15:51.079 --> 00:15:58.759
pink all right when it comes to hot glue it's about length not

00:15:56.720 --> 00:16:03.800
girth the scary thing about all the the time I'm spending right now is that I

00:16:00.199 --> 00:16:03.800
haven't even begun on my

00:16:05.360 --> 00:16:12.839
diarama I just need a little bit more height for my construction

00:16:10.120 --> 00:16:18.120
project and this should take care of it somewhat match the other ones see

00:16:16.800 --> 00:16:24.959
there you go now that should actually work pretty well now I also brought

00:16:22.360 --> 00:16:29.759
myself a couple little characters so did

00:16:27.079 --> 00:16:33.680
I I'm not be kidding I hope we don't have the same

00:16:31.000 --> 00:16:39.000
ones I I sincerely doubt you have the same characters that I do I'm I'm pretty

00:16:36.519 --> 00:16:44.920
confident in my ability to be I went out and got a Styrofoam cutter do you want

00:16:40.639 --> 00:16:46.639
it um not yet thank you though I

00:16:44.920 --> 00:16:52.440
wouldn't have uh I wouldn't have offered you the same

00:16:48.440 --> 00:16:56.759
thing now we also need a

00:16:52.440 --> 00:16:58.720
lawn okay um you know what I actually

00:16:56.759 --> 00:17:03.400
don't know why I thought I needed did this foam board I am

00:17:03.400 --> 00:17:11.720
L what I'm going for here is kind of you know what I think I will I think I will

00:17:08.959 --> 00:17:16.280
use the foam board just because it'll allow me to lift the whole thing up

00:17:14.240 --> 00:17:20.760
after the fact uh

00:17:17.959 --> 00:17:26.600
which could help a little bit now I'm a little worried about not having

00:17:23.039 --> 00:17:29.160
actually at all started on the

00:17:26.600 --> 00:17:35.679
computer but um I will get to that later I hope wow I'm

00:17:33.120 --> 00:17:40.400
already down to the hole in the glue stick I have used a lot of this and I am

00:17:38.559 --> 00:17:45.440
nowhere near done fortunately I can switch to hot

00:17:42.720 --> 00:17:52.160
glue for most of the upcoming construction and I do have a fair bit of

00:17:48.200 --> 00:17:55.960
that okay so here we

00:17:52.160 --> 00:17:58.240
go my first diarama project since

00:17:55.960 --> 00:18:02.520
elementary school I guess I should kind of map this out a little bit I could use

00:18:00.000 --> 00:18:08.679
a piece of paper so I need four in the front and six in the back so 10 10 P oh

00:18:06.919 --> 00:18:11.679
man this is getting kind of brutal

00:18:27.320 --> 00:18:30.320
um

00:18:34.039 --> 00:18:38.600
okay so on this side I want sparkly gold

00:18:37.240 --> 00:18:44.039
then I'm going to put the mannequin head on a slight angle give ital trunk hair

00:18:41.840 --> 00:18:51.520
put money all around it and diamonds um and maybe label uh label

00:18:48.039 --> 00:18:55.559
maker some of his quotes So this side's

00:18:51.520 --> 00:18:55.559
going to be all Glam and

00:18:57.320 --> 00:19:05.200
Glitz

00:19:09.440 --> 00:19:14.760
those look sufficiently Fed Up Now

00:19:13.000 --> 00:19:19.780
please God don't kick it on our way out and let's

00:19:27.240 --> 00:19:35.600
go and then so this is going to go here and

00:19:32.280 --> 00:19:36.710
then it's going to have this on it to

00:19:35.600 --> 00:19:39.240
the top

00:19:39.240 --> 00:19:45.360
bit so this is for the power supply I

00:19:43.000 --> 00:19:51.480
was told that I can't wreck the power supply

00:19:47.400 --> 00:19:54.039
so I am going to not wreck the power

00:19:51.480 --> 00:19:59.159
supply get it it's plating gold

00:19:57.240 --> 00:20:04.679
plating 48 68

00:20:01.679 --> 00:20:04.679
48

00:20:14.520 --> 00:20:24.280
168 this stuff which is um like a paint which I should be

00:20:20.640 --> 00:20:26.919
able to squeeze out so I can like get

00:20:24.280 --> 00:20:31.720
some of this stuff done if I want to um so that's an

00:20:29.440 --> 00:20:37.340
option I have

00:20:34.440 --> 00:20:42.960
uh uh this

00:20:51.240 --> 00:20:59.159
thing so Brandon accidentally stepped on my side panel a few

00:20:56.840 --> 00:21:05.559
times and and it's

00:21:01.400 --> 00:21:07.919
here it was on this corner and

00:21:05.559 --> 00:21:12.200
then all over okay I don't think he steuck on that one all over this one

00:21:10.240 --> 00:21:16.240
used up a whole bunch of paint I don't have enough paint anymore to paint the

00:21:14.360 --> 00:21:20.200
back of the brackets and I don't have enough paint to fix

00:21:18.159 --> 00:21:23.880
that so I don't really know what to

00:21:27.039 --> 00:21:33.880
do trying to figure out some way to fix it

00:21:30.360 --> 00:21:33.880
but I have no

00:21:38.400 --> 00:21:42.520
idea why isn't it sticking at

00:21:45.840 --> 00:21:54.919
all what the f I know there's a giant fing line this

00:21:51.640 --> 00:21:54.919
is great

00:21:55.120 --> 00:22:02.679
I'm that's that's

00:21:58.559 --> 00:22:02.679
that's and I don't even have a hot glue

00:22:20.640 --> 00:22:25.240
gun come on

00:22:25.880 --> 00:22:29.960
off Jesus

00:22:33.039 --> 00:22:42.799
so that is the outer walls of my house

00:22:39.039 --> 00:22:44.600
now your glue gun works perfectly to

00:22:42.799 --> 00:22:50.679
Warcraft 2 reference wao it's still melting the

00:22:46.880 --> 00:22:54.600
styrene under the paper oh craps

00:22:50.679 --> 00:22:54.600
cicles look at me I can do

00:22:54.640 --> 00:23:01.919
crafts meanwhile the wives and girlfriends of all the people watching

00:22:58.760 --> 00:23:05.679
this video are just like he has no idea

00:23:01.919 --> 00:23:07.440
what he's doing did he just use c42 hot

00:23:05.679 --> 00:23:12.240
glue on foam board it's stuck to my hand that's going

00:23:09.559 --> 00:23:15.640
to be the White House a little Trump leg on top okay I don't remember what these

00:23:14.640 --> 00:23:22.360
are for oh this is awful everything about it

00:23:19.000 --> 00:23:26.320
is awful crap I wish I had my wife to

00:23:22.360 --> 00:23:28.679
help me with this kind of up to

00:23:26.320 --> 00:23:36.039
there what I'm going to need in order to make it somewhat realistic looking some

00:23:32.600 --> 00:23:37.720
Windows should work the second

00:23:36.039 --> 00:23:42.480
time okay there's my

00:23:40.120 --> 00:23:48.279
Windows yeah baby I am going to glue this down so I'm

00:23:46.400 --> 00:23:55.640
committing at this point there's no time to redo everything that I've done on it

00:23:50.200 --> 00:23:55.640
anyway so I am going for the Gusto

00:23:56.880 --> 00:23:59.880
here

00:24:01.440 --> 00:24:10.640
okay oh I never checked the centering on the oh boy well I hope that's somewhat

00:24:08.320 --> 00:24:16.080
close actually to the eye that seems okay I think we're all right okay so

00:24:12.919 --> 00:24:17.840
this baby is going to go in here and

00:24:16.080 --> 00:24:21.880
this is going to go right here then I got to figure out my

00:24:23.120 --> 00:24:28.510
pillars okay there's my top

00:24:26.799 --> 00:24:30.200
piece

00:24:30.200 --> 00:24:36.559
oh that'll do it all right rock on Linus

00:24:34.919 --> 00:24:40.240
you marvelous Stud I'm sure the entire internet is

00:24:38.840 --> 00:24:42.640
going to be criticizing my rolling technique

00:24:44.159 --> 00:24:49.520
too is going to uh wow the

00:24:52.279 --> 00:24:57.600
judges oh I love

00:24:55.320 --> 00:25:03.320
it I got to tell you Luke you were up again against some

00:24:59.080 --> 00:25:05.240
unexpectedly legit diarama skills here I

00:25:03.320 --> 00:25:10.080
have spent the majority of my time on my diarama so far which is not because

00:25:07.720 --> 00:25:14.360
that's what I wanted to do but that's because that is what happened you to

00:25:12.360 --> 00:25:18.120
finish I hope so lonus always

00:25:18.679 --> 00:25:26.360
finishes cuz I need the joke to be visible but I also don't want it to look

00:25:23.200 --> 00:25:28.799
completely like comical and

00:25:26.360 --> 00:25:32.760
huge I had a originally intended to just have a face there but um just because of

00:25:31.960 --> 00:25:37.279
the dimensions I think this works a little

00:25:35.080 --> 00:25:37.279
bit

00:25:56.679 --> 00:25:59.679
better

00:26:04.760 --> 00:26:11.880
I'm still pushing towards the Finish Line I still got to build a computer

00:26:26.600 --> 00:26:29.600
so

00:26:45.840 --> 00:26:49.600
I I don't really know what to do

00:26:49.600 --> 00:26:55.520
here but with how much time I'm assuming we have

00:26:53.200 --> 00:27:00.880
left I will not be able to I'm not going to be done by five either so okay okay

00:26:58.399 --> 00:27:00.880
well that's

00:27:07.039 --> 00:27:16.320
good I needed it I'm going to get wrecked too hard see what lonus didn't

00:27:12.760 --> 00:27:18.600
know is that you could put your budget

00:27:16.320 --> 00:27:24.640
literally into your computer so my solution here is to Plate

00:27:22.679 --> 00:27:30.279
my graphics card with money if the judges see money

00:27:28.039 --> 00:27:34.720
they might want to take it in order to take it they obviously have to you know

00:27:32.159 --> 00:27:36.960
vote for me cuz that's how voting Works isn't

00:27:49.720 --> 00:27:55.640
it this is so not really

00:27:56.320 --> 00:28:01.200
okay this this whole build is so not

00:28:18.360 --> 00:28:25.919
okay okay so we're both super overtime I kind of have a feeling that lonus is

00:28:23.279 --> 00:28:30.840
kind of done and is just kind of doing stuff so that the contest is able to

00:28:28.720 --> 00:28:36.440
continue because I'm literally not done yet okay apparently he's still doing

00:28:33.840 --> 00:28:40.679
things I still think I'm going to get completely wrecked at the end but I'm

00:28:39.399 --> 00:28:47.559
just trying to like have something that's that's yeah

00:28:44.840 --> 00:28:53.120
that is my goal at the moment have something present anything exist for

00:28:51.600 --> 00:29:00.480
some form of reason that is my current goal explain

00:28:56.519 --> 00:29:01.760
to at least some level why the f I even

00:29:00.480 --> 00:29:05.960
entered this contest yeah all right that helps a lot

00:29:04.679 --> 00:29:09.120
it's these little finishing touches that I've got to start getting to right

00:29:09.240 --> 00:29:15.840
now so okay so first of all this is a functionality upgrade uh because I

00:29:14.080 --> 00:29:22.720
didn't realize until I was building the PC itself that my water cooler on the

00:29:19.760 --> 00:29:29.200
top the performance would be impacted by my diarama so I added uh an airflow

00:29:26.360 --> 00:29:35.360
shroud so that it'll be able to exhaust all of its hot wind out the back

00:29:32.600 --> 00:29:39.720
and then the last thing that I did was I created a sales

00:29:36.919 --> 00:29:45.240
brochure so that the judges will know exactly what it is they're looking at

00:29:41.679 --> 00:29:46.600
and be able to judge it as uh favorably

00:29:45.240 --> 00:29:50.039
as possible okay let's

00:29:50.799 --> 00:29:58.200
go this is really dangerous I can't see

00:29:54.600 --> 00:30:01.159
a damn thing I where I'm going

00:29:58.200 --> 00:30:08.919
is scary okay you're about to walk over a yellow cable John see it's fine what

00:30:05.000 --> 00:30:12.000
what that's my theme we did do the same

00:30:08.919 --> 00:30:15.480
thing what the

00:30:12.000 --> 00:30:15.480
m

00:30:15.960 --> 00:30:22.799
true how did we do the same thing is that the White House yeah okay mine's

00:30:21.279 --> 00:30:27.399
the wall on the other side there's people

00:30:25.039 --> 00:30:31.080
trying to climb over it is this oh they're both they're Donald Trump both

00:30:29.919 --> 00:30:37.360
of them hus look at this like Vegas look at this

00:30:34.679 --> 00:30:40.960
look at the little Mexican whoa whoa they're trying to get over they are

00:30:38.760 --> 00:30:45.000
blond haired okay I don't think they're Mexican okay are they trying to get into

00:30:42.880 --> 00:30:49.600
Mexico then can we even show this on the channel I don't I I think they're I feel

00:30:47.240 --> 00:30:53.000
like I ask that every week I feel like they're supposed to be ethnically

00:30:51.279 --> 00:30:57.480
indeterminate um I don't think it's really supposed to Matter What ethnicity

00:30:54.559 --> 00:31:01.320
they are oh so what have you done it just matters it just matters that

00:30:59.880 --> 00:31:08.440
they're not white okay so let's have a look here I thought I broke

00:31:05.159 --> 00:31:11.799
this is this

00:31:08.440 --> 00:31:14.039
okay oh it's a it's the border wall that

00:31:11.799 --> 00:31:20.279
he made the Mexican Government PID for okay yeah and apparently this PC was

00:31:17.480 --> 00:31:24.639
proudly made in Romania does it say oh Trump

00:31:25.919 --> 00:31:34.760
PC wow I don't even like Okay so let's

00:31:30.639 --> 00:31:37.080
see here um I like smells like cancer I

00:31:34.760 --> 00:31:41.120
like how we replace the flag 2 three four five six seven eight what are the

00:31:39.320 --> 00:31:48.080
nine Stripes emblematic where are the stars where's the blue on the flag yeah

00:31:44.200 --> 00:31:50.519
oh um is Trump looking Shifty oh so we

00:31:48.080 --> 00:31:55.120
have an American flag or but it's upside down it's upside down which is a signal

00:31:52.399 --> 00:31:59.519
of distress is is is the Builder of this trying to make some kind of political

00:31:56.519 --> 00:32:00.960
statement here or is this just for I I

00:31:59.519 --> 00:32:07.200
don't know P so we have a gold like a gold plated

00:32:04.880 --> 00:32:15.480
power supply a bunch of Canadian I mean Monopoly money sorry um we have diam

00:32:11.559 --> 00:32:17.639
plastic diamonds I guess and a glass of

00:32:15.480 --> 00:32:23.559
that might just be flat Pepsi but I'm going to just pretend that it's wine um

00:32:20.799 --> 00:32:26.559
so literally gold plated you know what actually the motherboard I like how the

00:32:25.480 --> 00:32:32.080
motherboard goes with the rest of the build as far as color scheme because it's sort of like a dark orange we both

00:32:30.039 --> 00:32:36.960
have the same motherboard John I didn't change

00:32:34.000 --> 00:32:42.880
anything I used black cable mod cables I used white ones cuz you used the white

00:32:39.840 --> 00:32:45.639
ones now there's lither on here you can

00:32:42.880 --> 00:32:49.919
see that it's kind of coming off like everywhere so which one look like

00:32:47.760 --> 00:32:54.360
there's a lot of painting done on this F so which one has the more impressive

00:32:51.679 --> 00:32:58.799
wall this one apparently they force the Mexicans to pay for it but this one has

00:32:55.960 --> 00:33:05.159
actual people this has emotion in it yeah your wall apparently has more

00:33:01.240 --> 00:33:06.519
emotion emotion my wall it gets sad

00:33:05.159 --> 00:33:11.200
sometimes okay feels he just called mine an

00:33:09.120 --> 00:33:18.399
elementary school project that is exactly what I

00:33:14.600 --> 00:33:20.360
did is this just taped on looks that way

00:33:18.399 --> 00:33:25.559
and it looks like it was attempted to be hot glued but that probably didn't work

00:33:22.880 --> 00:33:29.240
very well so it unless this is temporary to secure it while it was

00:33:27.799 --> 00:33:34.480
like are we supposed to take that off if we took that off does no no no no no

00:33:33.320 --> 00:33:41.200
don't take don't take it off don't take it ready this whole panel makes me feel

00:33:37.960 --> 00:33:43.080
safe really there's the gun the gun is

00:33:41.200 --> 00:33:47.720
pointed directly at the Temple of Trump's head is that is that symbolism

00:33:45.559 --> 00:33:52.200
is he being controlled by you know someone else

00:33:49.440 --> 00:33:57.399
M interesting this this build just got meta oh man I don't even know what to

00:33:54.399 --> 00:33:59.080
say to that I have nothing to say say

00:33:57.399 --> 00:34:03.639
for once so do we actually judge this based on quality well it's it's a very

00:34:01.760 --> 00:34:08.760
Square White House it appears to be missing the entire West Wing where the

00:34:05.919 --> 00:34:12.359
president's office actually is of course John knows some useless crap like that

00:34:10.760 --> 00:34:18.280
if you Google White House that's what comes up I do like how this one made an

00:34:15.359 --> 00:34:21.800
obvious reference to we made Mexico pay for it with the wall here it is in the

00:34:20.599 --> 00:34:26.200
it's in the isn't the colors of the Mexican tri color it's very accurate I

00:34:23.639 --> 00:34:30.399
like your dress so oh I do like how it say Trump president presal Hotel yeah

00:34:28.040 --> 00:34:37.200
well if you read this if you had read the it says thank

00:34:34.359 --> 00:34:41.839
you I told you you'd get it John's like well no it says this seems to be too

00:34:40.200 --> 00:34:46.800
about the standard of Trump's normal Bill quality though Trump's what quality

00:34:44.159 --> 00:34:51.079
normal build quality of his of his hotels and various other

00:34:49.000 --> 00:34:57.440
establishments wow um says scale replica and it's not

00:34:55.359 --> 00:35:01.359
and I just don't want to be lied to but that's

00:34:58.400 --> 00:35:10.079
trump it also says a bunch of other crap about by what metric is this 30% more

00:35:05.480 --> 00:35:12.720
Trump compared to a regular Tower um

00:35:10.079 --> 00:35:17.280
there's like the international unit of umum trump it's just it just is you

00:35:15.000 --> 00:35:21.280
can't this is trumped up judging is what we got going on here John is defending a

00:35:19.359 --> 00:35:25.800
metaphysical Point have we ever had this happen before I don't know I think

00:35:23.720 --> 00:35:29.880
they're being really harsh on my build here

00:35:27.839 --> 00:35:35.200
see he says what Trump brings to America do they even know the theme is the

00:35:33.119 --> 00:35:38.480
future can you go tell them the theme is not Trump the theme is the

00:35:38.960 --> 00:35:44.680
future nobody said

00:35:42.040 --> 00:35:49.880
that I mean I walked over here and I saw both Trump builds and I was like this is

00:35:47.760 --> 00:35:54.240
certainly a potential look at the future if you look at it as this side being

00:35:51.960 --> 00:35:57.680
America and this side being Mexico or Canada CU Trump will probably build a

00:35:55.800 --> 00:36:01.359
wall up here too how am I going to get back home then it's a great

00:36:01.720 --> 00:36:09.079
question M on that got awkward wow no I think this

00:36:07.440 --> 00:36:11.960
really feels like the future it's a little it's a little dystopian if

00:36:10.960 --> 00:36:18.160
they're going for the idea of a dystopian future I think they've got it it is a dystopian future do you think I

00:36:16.240 --> 00:36:23.839
want that Trump to turn the White House into a hotel just makes me mad when I

00:36:21.040 --> 00:36:29.359
have to watch them judge things I feel like I'm being judged what I almost

00:36:26.839 --> 00:36:32.520
wonder if it's happening is if Ed knows which computer is which and he's just

00:36:30.880 --> 00:36:37.240
trying to troll you I know he know you know he would and

00:36:35.160 --> 00:36:42.000
you know he knows I like the

00:36:39.599 --> 00:36:47.119
Simplicity while at the same time I don't like the Simplicity it's perfect

00:36:44.480 --> 00:36:53.200
for the average Trump supporter to understand it better but that's not me

00:36:50.800 --> 00:36:57.680
wow I'm pretty sure there should be doors in more places what a dick

00:36:55.880 --> 00:37:02.119
Construction the construction

00:36:59.280 --> 00:37:10.000
favor feels like I could have done it in the third grade so I give it a five ow

00:37:07.640 --> 00:37:16.720
five I thought five do they know how long we have to work on these okay go I

00:37:14.240 --> 00:37:23.040
thought that the overall approach to # Mega was fine um and I did enjoy the use

00:37:21.480 --> 00:37:29.079
of the Trump faces but at the same time there could

00:37:26.400 --> 00:37:33.160
have been a bit more continuity throughout the bill I felt like the

00:37:30.560 --> 00:37:40.280
Mexico wall was a bit weird I was a bit less brutal than edel giving Mega a

00:37:37.640 --> 00:37:45.200
generous seven out of 10 if it's a generous seven that's still pretty

00:37:41.640 --> 00:37:48.000
brutal I do think the execution was

00:37:45.200 --> 00:37:54.800
slightly crude because the theme seems just to be kind of trump face everywhere

00:37:51.800 --> 00:37:56.920
um which I mean which as funny as the

00:37:54.800 --> 00:38:01.560
Trump faces are and they are get me wrong I do feel like maybe a little bit

00:37:59.040 --> 00:38:05.240
more yeah there we go yeah I feel like a little bit more Nuance probably would

00:38:03.280 --> 00:38:09.839
have been good would have liked to have seen um the actual eagle and snake on

00:38:08.280 --> 00:38:15.480
the border wall so we don't mistake it for an Italian flag which I actually did

00:38:12.000 --> 00:38:18.359
at first overall not bad definitively

00:38:15.480 --> 00:38:25.520
trump-like and I gave it a six out of 10 six wow looks like no one made it

00:38:23.079 --> 00:38:32.640
through this round of layoffs I like the muted colors it kind

00:38:29.000 --> 00:38:36.119
of says Bleak future you know I feel

00:38:32.640 --> 00:38:39.640
safer I feel like I have my privacy

00:38:36.119 --> 00:38:43.520
intact here I have to give it a

00:38:39.640 --> 00:38:47.079
seven unfortunately it does feel too

00:38:43.520 --> 00:38:50.079
real and it scares me for me the Vegas

00:38:47.079 --> 00:38:54.760
build felt a bit more complete when I

00:38:50.079 --> 00:38:54.760
thought the theme was Trump not the

00:38:55.520 --> 00:39:02.119
future I would the theme be Trump why

00:38:59.680 --> 00:39:06.839
did you both build Trump computers I don't

00:39:03.599 --> 00:39:08.599
know I did feel like the uh the facade

00:39:06.839 --> 00:39:14.520
on the front of the build was a nice touch you know it does feel very Trump

00:39:11.280 --> 00:39:18.200
however shly done however shly done

00:39:14.520 --> 00:39:20.480
house um I liked the imagery of you know

00:39:18.200 --> 00:39:25.440
Trump being controlled by an outside force with the gun pointing directly at

00:39:22.400 --> 00:39:29.720
the side of the head I really doubt that

00:39:25.440 --> 00:39:29.720
was actually pointing the gun at

00:39:31.160 --> 00:39:37.040
his um I like the

00:39:34.720 --> 00:39:40.319
indeterminant uh racial family that doesn't let you know if they're trying

00:39:38.160 --> 00:39:45.680
to get into America or out of it over the Trump wall uh and I like the defense

00:39:43.040 --> 00:39:49.000
mechanisms of the stickiness of the styrofoam on the Trump

00:39:49.520 --> 00:39:55.720
wall while the money and the fake diamonds inside did provide a very trunk

00:39:53.400 --> 00:40:00.520
feel it was very unclear what the message was there whether that's you

00:39:58.160 --> 00:40:08.119
know America will become prosperous or America will spend too much or you know

00:40:03.440 --> 00:40:10.160
it's all just fake and and a sham um and

00:40:08.119 --> 00:40:16.079
overall in the theme of the future you know it's it's a bit tough to

00:40:13.400 --> 00:40:21.880
say that this really hit the nail on the head

00:40:17.720 --> 00:40:26.599
so uh I gave Vegas a slight Edge at

00:40:21.880 --> 00:40:28.119
7.5 how granular like the Precision all

00:40:26.599 --> 00:40:32.800
right you're up John with that I should do that first of all immediately I love

00:40:31.200 --> 00:40:36.160
how the front is very striking it reminds me so much of the trumpet

00:40:34.240 --> 00:40:41.359
International in Vegas looks exactly like it if you wanted the theme to be

00:40:38.720 --> 00:40:45.760
dystopia you absolutely nailed it you kind of nailed it with like the muted

00:40:42.839 --> 00:40:50.119
colors um with like all this going on back here this is super creepy because

00:40:48.119 --> 00:40:56.480
it looks like Donald Trump has like channeled his soul into like a young

00:40:52.920 --> 00:40:58.640
albino woman and then died so D I think

00:40:56.480 --> 00:41:02.839
Lennon said it best sometimes I Want to Hold Your Hand just means I Want to Hold

00:41:00.880 --> 00:41:06.960
Your Hand I should take more points off for that but um I what I really liked

00:41:05.280 --> 00:41:10.880
about this is that I think the theme on this one was much much more consistent

00:41:09.760 --> 00:41:15.319
if like I said if you're going for dystopia I think you nailed it so I gave

00:41:13.240 --> 00:41:18.480
you well I would have given you a nine but I took off one point off off this

00:41:17.119 --> 00:41:24.720
one and also one point off of this one because the theme was supposed to be the future and I honestly think it's very

00:41:21.920 --> 00:41:30.400
unlikely that Trump will win so Vegas gets an eight oo

00:41:27.119 --> 00:41:32.440
oh wow I did not see this one coming I

00:41:30.400 --> 00:41:37.480
actually didn't either crushing crushing defeat at the hands of the world's worst

00:41:35.640 --> 00:41:40.440
no one even noticed the paint job on the front literally looks like you dragged

00:41:39.160 --> 00:41:45.520
it across the floor while you were waiting for it to dry we did it's just

00:41:42.800 --> 00:41:52.560
