WEBVTT

00:00:01.760 --> 00:00:10.280
and we're live and only five minutes late today that's not bad well okay it's

00:00:07.560 --> 00:00:17.560
not good and we're sorry we apologize very much for being terrible people but

00:00:13.599 --> 00:00:20.760
in our defense we actually had no audio

00:00:17.560 --> 00:00:22.000
five minutes ago and or uh no I guess it

00:00:20.760 --> 00:00:27.960
must have been about 10 minutes ago 5 minutes before Showtime we had no audio

00:00:24.480 --> 00:00:30.960
whatsoever and now we're live and it

00:00:27.960 --> 00:00:32.320
works and everything is working

00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:36.520
hopefully we're making a lot of assumptions here we are yes okay there's

00:00:35.280 --> 00:00:43.520
one thing that isn't can't even connect to Twitch chat so I can't sign into the

00:00:40.160 --> 00:00:44.960
dock see your dock not up I can't see if

00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:48.800
we're actually working cuz twitch chat's all bugged I was in the dock when we

00:00:46.719 --> 00:00:56.480
filmed the show introduction I know I know I was in the dock like two minutes

00:00:51.879 --> 00:00:59.039
ago and the stupid thing is oh

00:00:56.480 --> 00:01:01.920
man I'm not getting the what's the o You're

00:01:02.440 --> 00:01:07.439
beautiful actually it's been really inconsistent lately and have you noticed

00:01:06.360 --> 00:01:11.920
they don't give you other options anymore there's no option for send me a

00:01:09.400 --> 00:01:15.240
text again unless you wait a 100 years and then there's no option to call you

00:01:13.320 --> 00:01:19.040
with it so it's like send a text to your backup phone which is my wife's phone

00:01:17.840 --> 00:01:24.560
not going to be super helpful we're talking about a backup not like I should

00:01:21.479 --> 00:01:25.759
need to use this all the time yeah yeah

00:01:24.560 --> 00:01:29.400
and then the other option is use a backup code why I use my backup codes

00:01:28.119 --> 00:01:37.040
all the time you know what twostep service is is ungodly though ungodly bad

00:01:32.680 --> 00:01:39.600
or good good okay sure V yeah it seems

00:01:37.040 --> 00:01:42.799
like the emails like been received before you actually press the button to

00:01:41.159 --> 00:01:46.719
send it but it isn't but it like it feels that way actually hot mails is

00:01:44.799 --> 00:01:51.560
pretty good too hot mails saved me from having my account hijacked because it's

00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:55.680
proactive about it it communicates with you if it thinks there's a problem via

00:01:53.600 --> 00:02:00.880
your other communication methods and it's like yo dog if you don't think this

00:01:58.880 --> 00:02:04.039
is okay then you need to let us know right away like how credit card

00:02:02.000 --> 00:02:07.520
companies are supposed to do stuff yeah yeah actually they've they don't even

00:02:05.840 --> 00:02:12.160
call me like when I leave the country anymore it used to be like I went and

00:02:09.679 --> 00:02:16.560
bought like a you know something expensive like ring ring and my credit

00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:20.480
card wouldn't work I I called them up to tell them I was going on a trip once and

00:02:18.040 --> 00:02:23.400
they're like why are you why are you telling us and I was like what wouldn't

00:02:22.280 --> 00:02:29.319
you want to know if there's like these weird charges from another country

00:02:25.440 --> 00:02:31.519
they're like no it's fine it's like um

00:02:29.319 --> 00:02:35.640
okay like if there's local purchases on a card that I have only ever used for

00:02:33.519 --> 00:02:39.879
online purchases for four years and they local purchases in like Korea you're not

00:02:38.360 --> 00:02:45.440
going to think that's weird and they're like no it's okay I was like okay I need

00:02:43.200 --> 00:02:48.640
to pay more attention to what transactions go through my credit card

00:02:47.000 --> 00:02:53.400
cuz you're not okay well you're the only one with the dock up because I just

00:02:50.959 --> 00:02:58.239
requested two text messages and they haven't come through so let's start with

00:02:55.599 --> 00:03:01.159
the Apparently leaked specs of the iPhone we supposed to start with the

00:02:59.400 --> 00:03:04.760
thing then do the intro Oh I thought we already did that for some reason nope

00:03:02.840 --> 00:03:08.840
NOP we haven't done that all right well call outs that we have are Chrome is

00:03:06.680 --> 00:03:11.959
wasting power on your computer mainly notable for people with laptops but

00:03:10.400 --> 00:03:18.519
we'll talk about that more later Microsoft has cut 18,000 jobs including

00:03:16.159 --> 00:03:21.640
Barnacle sorry buddy we tried to get him on the show but I think he's dealing

00:03:20.319 --> 00:03:25.959
with other things at the point at this point in time which makes total sense

00:03:23.920 --> 00:03:29.799
stuff to do ESPN will be broadcasting the Dota 2 tournament they'll be

00:03:27.360 --> 00:03:34.760
broadcasting it on ESPN 3 with a highlight pre-show kind of thing on ESPN

00:03:32.319 --> 00:03:39.920
2 at like 8:30 of the day before or something and Google+ is withdrawing its

00:03:37.319 --> 00:03:44.720
real name required policy right after they made everyone merge their accounts

00:03:41.599 --> 00:03:48.080
thanks guys um yeah I guess we'll talk

00:03:44.720 --> 00:03:48.080
about that later too Eno

00:03:58.680 --> 00:04:07.860
time

00:04:10.879 --> 00:04:16.639
and of course we have sponsors # Linus

00:04:14.400 --> 00:04:22.960
Squarespace you guys have an opportunity to have a chance to win a free year of

00:04:19.560 --> 00:04:24.720
Squarespace websit this so go ahead and

00:04:22.960 --> 00:04:29.039
tweet to hashtag Linus Squarespace if you have a Squarespace site if you don't

00:04:27.080 --> 00:04:32.160

00:04:30.160 --> 00:04:39.360
don't win we will be drawing a winner later on in the show our other sponsor

00:04:35.199 --> 00:04:41.400
this week is 54 Club yes they're back

00:04:39.360 --> 00:04:46.880
they're not totally afraid of sponsoring the W show after I completely screwed up

00:04:44.520 --> 00:04:52.000
the uh the whole sponsor segment thing for them on July the 4th I'm amazed

00:04:49.600 --> 00:04:56.840
they're back apparently fourth the fourth 54 Club you know what's funny

00:04:54.840 --> 00:05:02.680
about 54 Club is I've actually had people ask me do they have clothing for

00:04:59.199 --> 00:05:02.680
people who are normal

00:05:07.360 --> 00:05:14.560
height so this is this is both a you know this is either a misunderstanding

00:05:12.479 --> 00:05:19.800
or you're taking a shot at me for being short going like oh it's lonus he must

00:05:17.479 --> 00:05:24.880
be endorsing sh people clothes and the company's called 54 I'm like no that's

00:05:21.880 --> 00:05:27.160
not what the 54 is for anyway all right

00:05:24.880 --> 00:05:31.479
let's move on to our first topic so we told people what the 54 was for on the

00:05:28.639 --> 00:05:31.479
fourth

00:05:32.039 --> 00:05:40.520
10 10 four no all right good

00:05:36.560 --> 00:05:43.000
work anyways moving on we have the

00:05:40.520 --> 00:05:46.880
Apparently supposedly leaked specs supposedly one thing in it makes me

00:05:44.960 --> 00:05:50.800
really think that's probably not true actually I'm going to disagree with you

00:05:48.360 --> 00:05:54.960
so this is post by I fear Z On The Forum but I'm going to let you go ahead first

00:05:53.000 --> 00:05:58.479
oh I guess screen size uh anyways I'll just run through specs because there's

00:05:56.319 --> 00:06:04.800
not a lot other than specs but iPhone

00:06:00.639 --> 00:06:09.639
Air oh whatever it's iPhone 6 we call it

00:06:04.800 --> 00:06:12.440
yeah uh 4.7 in 1280x 800 resolution a 32

00:06:09.639 --> 00:06:18.680
gig 64 gig or 128 gig capacity yeah no 16 gig um A8 chip with 64bit

00:06:15.759 --> 00:06:24.960
architecture and M8 motion co- processor eyesight camera with like like I sight

00:06:22.160 --> 00:06:30.039
camera um with 12 megapixels and 4K video recording fingerprint second gen

00:06:26.840 --> 00:06:32.840
identity sensor iOS 8 and it'll come in

00:06:30.039 --> 00:06:36.440
colors of silver gold and space gray I don't know why gray needed its own

00:06:34.280 --> 00:06:41.440
little well space gray I mean it's different from like you know gunmetal

00:06:38.919 --> 00:06:44.440
gray or Battleship Gray but then there's different versions of silver and gold

00:06:42.720 --> 00:06:49.280
Gray's Anatomy 50 Shades of

00:06:46.759 --> 00:06:55.479
Gray well 50 Shades of Gray would be 50 different right so that could include

00:06:51.000 --> 00:06:56.919
space gray okay so the point is um I

00:06:55.479 --> 00:07:04.039
don't know this looks perfectly right to me especially if they're going to have a larger version and Marcus's video as

00:07:01.560 --> 00:07:08.800
well as the bajillion copycat videos showing off the sapphire glass um it

00:07:07.120 --> 00:07:13.639
actually kind of drove me crazy in his video I should probably I should

00:07:10.680 --> 00:07:18.199
probably you can see through it no well okay that drove me a little bit crazy

00:07:15.120 --> 00:07:20.720
too because I he says right in his video

00:07:18.199 --> 00:07:25.080
that he's never held a piece of Gorilla Glass and then he's kind of marveling at

00:07:23.039 --> 00:07:29.680
how amazing the sapphire crystal glasses and I'm kind of like uh dude Gorilla

00:07:27.160 --> 00:07:33.080
Glass is like actually pretty similar I mean it was not going to have quite the

00:07:31.400 --> 00:07:36.680
same degree of scratch resistance but in terms of being really flexible being

00:07:35.240 --> 00:07:42.840
very clear you know if you hold it in front of your eye and don't hold it in front of your eye uh the human eye is

00:07:40.800 --> 00:07:46.800
not going to be able to differentiate between something like Gorilla Glass 3

00:07:44.759 --> 00:07:49.440
and sapphire crystal glass just like holding them up and trying to look

00:07:47.919 --> 00:07:52.599
through them you're going to need actual equipment for that but no the thing that

00:07:51.199 --> 00:07:57.879
kind of bugged me was he kept calling it a panel and right it's not a panel of

00:07:56.120 --> 00:08:03.759
glass that you don't have a panel of glass you have an LCD panel and you have

00:08:00.000 --> 00:08:05.520
a glass cover over top of it um so

00:08:03.759 --> 00:08:12.759
anyway anyway anyway anyway the whole point is that if iPhone 6 in its 4.7 in

00:08:10.039 --> 00:08:18.120
version ends up also having a bigger brother which Marcus's video um which

00:08:15.840 --> 00:08:22.240
did a great job of just showcasing how amazing that piece of glass is if

00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:25.319
Marcus's video is true and that's a piece for a bigger one then I think it

00:08:23.879 --> 00:08:29.800
makes perfect sense that this one is going to be a mere 1280 by 800

00:08:27.759 --> 00:08:33.519
resolution display and I just jumped into this assuming only one I actually

00:08:32.080 --> 00:08:37.240
even forgot about the fact that that thing was bigger because they always

00:08:35.279 --> 00:08:41.159
just release one but Steve Jobs doesn't exist anymore so maybe they'll release

00:08:39.159 --> 00:08:49.560
more than one yeah and I mean the thing too for me is that at 4.7 in or even at

00:08:44.360 --> 00:08:52.640
5 in or even at even at sort of yeah at

00:08:49.560 --> 00:08:57.240
almost any size for a phone I don't

00:08:52.640 --> 00:08:59.320
actually find 720p to be not enough I

00:08:57.240 --> 00:09:03.640
don't think it's I I think I can can still tell the difference between 720p

00:09:01.240 --> 00:09:07.279
and 1080p but it doesn't bother me I mean you're using a Moto X now this

00:09:05.079 --> 00:09:12.720
isn't going to be that's a pretty small screen what is it 4.5

00:09:09.760 --> 00:09:17.440
4.3 I can't remember that's a fair amount of

00:09:13.680 --> 00:09:18.959
difference screen size 4.7 inch let's

00:09:17.440 --> 00:09:24.120
just have a really small bz so there you go um I and does it make a difference to

00:09:21.720 --> 00:09:29.519
you yeah it's not bad but I can definitely

00:09:27.720 --> 00:09:34.600
tell the difference doesn't look as good as my G2 did right like it's fairly I

00:09:32.760 --> 00:09:38.680
don't know makes a noticeable difference for sure the flip side of that or not

00:09:36.519 --> 00:09:43.800
the flip side buying a premium cost phone the extension of that is that LG's

00:09:40.760 --> 00:09:44.959
G3 with its 1440p screen really didn't

00:09:43.800 --> 00:09:49.920
make that much of a difference that's a different you can't compare that necessarily because you're you're

00:09:48.279 --> 00:09:54.560
comparing lower resolution difference versus higher resolution difference that's not fair you can't compare the

00:09:53.200 --> 00:10:00.519
noticeable difference between lower resolutions to the noticeable difference between higher

00:09:57.800 --> 00:10:06.760
resolutions what do you you talking about I'm saying okay I'm saying 720p

00:10:03.560 --> 00:10:08.000
versus 1080p is a noticeable leap but

00:10:06.760 --> 00:10:11.519
doesn't make that much of a difference to me whereas beyond that it makes no

00:10:10.360 --> 00:10:16.600
difference to me at all that's all I'm trying to say okay that's not how you worded it so I mean I don't mind that

00:10:15.440 --> 00:10:21.680
Apple's not giving us a higher resolution display I understand why they're doing it because the way that

00:10:19.399 --> 00:10:25.079
their whole ecosystem works with every app just works every app looks right on

00:10:23.519 --> 00:10:32.680
every phone every time they change something like that I mean when the iPhone 5 first launched with the taller

00:10:29.200 --> 00:10:34.360
play it was disaster town for a long

00:10:32.680 --> 00:10:38.120
time in terms of app compatibility everyone had to run out an update so if

00:10:36.639 --> 00:10:42.560
they were to all of a sudden be supporting three different resolutions

00:10:40.120 --> 00:10:47.560
now it's becoming more like an Android like experience for the app developers

00:10:44.079 --> 00:10:49.040
so I I I totally get that it's just um I

00:10:47.560 --> 00:10:54.639
like I'd like to see 1080p I just don't think it's the end of the world yeah I think it'll still be pretty Sim uh no

00:10:52.920 --> 00:10:58.600
okay not similar but I think it will still be a lot easier for people to

00:10:56.160 --> 00:11:01.079
develop on iPhone than Android just because

00:10:59.560 --> 00:11:06.600
you have these different resolutions but at least you don't have all these different devices with crazy different

00:11:04.880 --> 00:11:12.040
Hardware in them like I know the the bounding guys had tons of issue with uh

00:11:10.160 --> 00:11:15.800
like getting their balancing correct across all devices right because you

00:11:14.160 --> 00:11:18.760
have to move it around right because you're moving the phone around so they'd

00:11:17.240 --> 00:11:23.000
have certain things where like they put it down on the table Yeah they can't see

00:11:21.160 --> 00:11:25.959
the table so put it down put it down on the table and with their default code

00:11:24.480 --> 00:11:29.480
it's sitting there still but it's showing the thing just flying all over

00:11:27.519 --> 00:11:32.560
the place right because it didn't make sense so they had to write adaptive code

00:11:31.000 --> 00:11:38.880
to manage all the different devices which is interesting but with apple

00:11:35.399 --> 00:11:41.240
you'll have much less differences in ter

00:11:38.880 --> 00:11:44.160
of that but then resolution will be yeah I I don't know oh one thing that we

00:11:42.800 --> 00:11:48.200
missed there giving the Renown of the specs is they're going to have a touch

00:11:45.880 --> 00:11:52.279
id2 fingerprint identity sensor so it looks like they're improving it already

00:11:50.320 --> 00:11:57.560
oh did you did you cover that oh okay I was probably just wasn't paying attention so the the one they have right

00:11:56.000 --> 00:12:00.639
now though is really good didn't you say yeah I I really like it I mean it's not

00:11:59.360 --> 00:12:04.279
the most secure thing in the world but it was never expected to be no um and

00:12:02.920 --> 00:12:09.079
it's still going to be more secure than most just like T passwords

00:12:06.399 --> 00:12:14.560
anyways there we go oh I forgot something actually for the 54 clothing

00:12:12.079 --> 00:12:17.800
thing today we actually have a giveaway and you guys should definitely

00:12:15.680 --> 00:12:26.560
participate in this so let me just find it tweet tag 54 on

00:12:22.680 --> 00:12:31.199
Twitter tag your friend and use hash

00:12:26.560 --> 00:12:33.639
Linus 54 okay so send out that tweet and

00:12:31.199 --> 00:12:40.760
whoever that is uh US and Canada by the way has a chance to win um free month

00:12:37.320 --> 00:12:42.000
worth of clothing clo yes so basically

00:12:40.760 --> 00:12:47.880
you just got to find a buddy and do it to each other no no no no no no you tag a friend who you think will enjoy 54 to

00:12:46.079 --> 00:12:52.240
enter to win a package of clothes from 54 for yourself yeah okay yeah we should

00:12:51.040 --> 00:12:56.040
ask them if they can send clothes to your buddy too that'd be pretty cool that would be pretty cool you know what

00:12:54.920 --> 00:13:00.360
I'm just going to I'm going to preemptively be like yes you and your

00:12:58.399 --> 00:13:04.880
buddy both both win it and now there's nothing they can do they're just going

00:13:01.920 --> 00:13:10.880
to hate me they are going to hate you like falsified information on all of the

00:13:07.839 --> 00:13:14.360
sponsor integration it's not false it's

00:13:10.880 --> 00:13:17.279
just not true but I will make it true

00:13:14.360 --> 00:13:21.160
therefore it's true I guess if they're if they refuse to do it I will buy you a

00:13:19.240 --> 00:13:24.800
month worth of 5'4 so there you go all right okay then this is why we don't

00:13:22.600 --> 00:13:31.880
have air conditioning in the office cuz I'm too busy buying five4 clothing for

00:13:27.760 --> 00:13:35.199
people yeah all right so let's go ahead

00:13:31.880 --> 00:13:38.279
and uh move on to actually a really

00:13:35.199 --> 00:13:40.800
amazing little piece of uh piece of

00:13:38.279 --> 00:13:46.360
articl over on Forbes here so here's the original article written by Ian Morris

00:13:43.600 --> 00:13:51.360
Google's Chrome web browser and this is a very sensationalist title Ian Google's

00:13:49.399 --> 00:13:56.360
Chrome web browser is killing your laptop battery he needed he needed to

00:13:54.800 --> 00:14:00.360
just there were a couple things there were a couple things Ian over here

00:13:58.800 --> 00:14:05.399
needed to do to make this not sensationalist so could have put life at

00:14:02.720 --> 00:14:13.440
the end killing your laptop's battery life or not use the word killing so is

00:14:10.199 --> 00:14:15.360
no just yeah life battery life it's not

00:14:13.440 --> 00:14:17.920
killing the batter okay you could make the argument that it is killing the

00:14:16.639 --> 00:14:25.759
battery because the battery does have a finite number of charge and discharge Cycles but it's not the primary concern

00:14:22.199 --> 00:14:29.279
here so what's going on why does your

00:14:25.759 --> 00:14:32.360
laptop battery and it's not just running

00:14:29.279 --> 00:14:35.240
Chrome and doing things in Chrome having

00:14:32.360 --> 00:14:37.920
Chrome open is enough do you want to run through the details here uh which if

00:14:36.959 --> 00:14:43.000
you're a chrome user you're going to have Chrome open all the time especially

00:14:40.000 --> 00:14:46.040
because Google wants you using Chrome as

00:14:43.000 --> 00:14:48.240
like a desktop application replacement

00:14:46.040 --> 00:14:51.720
yeah in a lot of different places in a lot of different places so like they're

00:14:50.079 --> 00:14:57.240
going to try to make you keep it open all the time which I'd really rather not

00:14:53.800 --> 00:14:59.279
but either way so how this works is your

00:14:57.240 --> 00:15:04.560
where is it system clock tick rate which is normally set at about 64 times per

00:15:01.720 --> 00:15:07.959
second is being ramped up to 1,000 times per second so your processor tries to go

00:15:06.120 --> 00:15:12.240
to sleep in these little intervals so that you save power when it's not doing

00:15:09.519 --> 00:15:16.240
things um so with most web browsers if you're doing something heavy like

00:15:13.320 --> 00:15:19.519
watching a YouTube video it will do this but when you stop watching the YouTube

00:15:17.600 --> 00:15:26.320
video it will stop and it'll go back to 64 ticks uh instead of a th ticks but

00:15:22.959 --> 00:15:28.920
Chrome explain what a tick is I just did

00:15:26.320 --> 00:15:33.000
not kind of tick I think I did it pretty well oh okay i' said it's your your

00:15:31.560 --> 00:15:37.600
processor goes to sleep in between these ticks okay sure but what in between

00:15:35.040 --> 00:15:42.079
ticks but what what is the tick then it's like let it's it's a Timing System

00:15:39.920 --> 00:15:45.399
pro programs can use it to so they keep up to date and keep up to speed get to

00:15:43.800 --> 00:15:49.839
process things so so the tick rate is how often it's checking basically yeah I

00:15:47.680 --> 00:15:56.759
said okay but fine whatever your explanation was great here you go no not

00:15:53.240 --> 00:15:59.199
at all um anyways continuing forward

00:15:56.759 --> 00:16:03.880
this can effectively apparent ly cause your laptop's batteries to die 25%

00:16:01.240 --> 00:16:10.399
faster and I don't remember where the note is but it's somewhere in his uh

00:16:07.440 --> 00:16:16.079
chart here on a desktop it can go from about 12 to 15 watts to I think it was

00:16:12.800 --> 00:16:18.319
20 watts at idle anywhere from 15 to 20

00:16:16.079 --> 00:16:23.279
watts of power consumption at idle not doing anything just having the Chrome

00:16:20.519 --> 00:16:27.240
browser open on the screen so 15 to 20 watts with chrome 12 to 15 watts with

00:16:25.199 --> 00:16:32.160
nothing else so kind of brutal I mean I guess that

00:16:30.680 --> 00:16:35.680
performance has got to come from somewhere I mean there's the uh you know

00:16:34.199 --> 00:16:39.839
those commercials they have where they have like the machine that fires thing

00:16:38.240 --> 00:16:43.360
and the potato thing that's actually pretty cool it is really cool and it's

00:16:41.639 --> 00:16:48.319
I'm glad that Chrome is faster than that but I wish that uh I wish that they

00:16:45.279 --> 00:16:51.399
didn't have to make my battery life not

00:16:48.319 --> 00:16:52.920
go for as long um to achieve it wish I

00:16:51.399 --> 00:16:57.319
wish if one of the requirements was that it was at least your Focus window yeah

00:16:55.920 --> 00:17:01.399
like if it's what you were clicked on at that point in time I can kind of get

00:16:59.240 --> 00:17:05.120
that sense that would maybe help a little bit but like if it's in the

00:17:03.240 --> 00:17:08.679
background and maybe you're not watching YouTube videos which are doing it in all

00:17:06.720 --> 00:17:12.280
other browsers anyways it would be nice if it kind of slowed down a little bit

00:17:10.679 --> 00:17:16.400
because I don't really need my processor being uh my uh web browser able to very

00:17:14.880 --> 00:17:21.039
effectively play those super Annoying video ads that are on places like tweak

00:17:18.160 --> 00:17:26.079
town and a few other websites going to keep on TW and still remove so annoying

00:17:24.280 --> 00:17:29.600
oh my God every single time I see an article from them I'm like okay I got to

00:17:27.559 --> 00:17:33.960
do this one as fast fast as possible so I can close this damn

00:17:31.400 --> 00:17:37.039
website anyways um anyway Google has

00:17:35.880 --> 00:17:41.120
acknowledged the issue and they're working on a fix for it um it has been

00:17:39.520 --> 00:17:47.360
acknowledged internally like they're they're looking at it now they've acknowledged it as a bug it's on the

00:17:45.120 --> 00:17:50.720
it's been assigned so apparently the only Annoying part of that is that

00:17:49.440 --> 00:17:56.440
they've known about this for an extremely long time and it's been being

00:17:53.679 --> 00:18:00.120
reported for an extremely long time and then like the Forbes and a couple other

00:17:58.080 --> 00:18:03.520
people are like hello and then they're finally like oh yeah okay we'll do it

00:18:02.039 --> 00:18:09.200
but no timeline has been given for the fix no so they haven't been working on

00:18:06.600 --> 00:18:12.200
it yet I suppose no not at all they're probably it's probably like buried at

00:18:10.840 --> 00:18:17.880
the bottom of some overworked programmer's queue it's just like okay

00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:25.400
I'll do it at some point all right maybe who knows so we do this from time to

00:18:22.159 --> 00:18:29.880
time we always kind of have this debate

00:18:25.400 --> 00:18:34.400
but this is an amazing piece of news for

00:18:29.880 --> 00:18:36.840
pro gaming and any hope that it has of

00:18:34.400 --> 00:18:43.720
becoming an acceptable mainstream thing the international 2

00:18:41.159 --> 00:18:49.280
will be on ESPN did I say two I meant four the

00:18:47.400 --> 00:18:54.600
International Tournament four so this is the fourth International Tournament Dota

00:18:50.919 --> 00:18:57.280
2 tournament yes uh will be broadcast on

00:18:54.600 --> 00:18:59.520
ESPN so there's going to be a couple of different there's going to be couple

00:18:58.520 --> 00:19:04.840
different streams so it's going to be featured on their digital channel ESPN 3

00:19:02.640 --> 00:19:10.520
with a preview of Monday's final this will be an ESPN exclusive preview of

00:19:06.640 --> 00:19:13.640
Monday's Final on ESPN 2 at 8:30 p.m.

00:19:10.520 --> 00:19:16.400
Pacific Time on the preceding Sunday

00:19:13.640 --> 00:19:19.480
they are going to have Gabe new on they are going to be like giving it the

00:19:18.039 --> 00:19:24.919
actual treatment we're talking the streams have got like liveaction you

00:19:22.320 --> 00:19:28.840
know instant replay something that I'm not entirely sure makes a ton of sense

00:19:27.480 --> 00:19:33.600
for a mode but it kind of does you just don't play

00:19:31.159 --> 00:19:38.360
them well okay hold on a second though because I mean okay do you need an

00:19:35.480 --> 00:19:43.320
instant replay of an attack being executed unless it's something that's

00:19:40.520 --> 00:19:46.200
particularly exciting like oh oh my God he almost made it but he didn't quite I

00:19:45.000 --> 00:19:49.679
think that's more the point and like if someone is if if say say there's an

00:19:48.200 --> 00:19:53.520
attack that's like a skill shot so it's a free flying thing that has to collide

00:19:51.919 --> 00:19:57.320
yes if someone shoots that and then someone use uses an evasion thing and

00:19:55.360 --> 00:20:00.320
like just jumps over it that could be something cool to show or if someone

00:19:59.039 --> 00:20:06.280
just Nicks I think it's going to be a lot of skill shot based stuff or if someone hits spectacularly hard some

00:20:04.720 --> 00:20:11.919
crazy critical and just crushes someone they could show that because it would look cool I don't know it would look

00:20:09.280 --> 00:20:15.320
cool to gamechanging parts of Team battles yeah like if something kind of

00:20:13.799 --> 00:20:19.240
happens but they want to show you the whole team battle then they can snap back and be like this was very important

00:20:17.919 --> 00:20:22.960
this is where the tide turned blah blah blah for analysis and whatnot I guess

00:20:21.520 --> 00:20:26.320
that's more like that's more like during a commercial break thing and that's what

00:20:24.720 --> 00:20:30.440
I was seeing as kind of the issue because you won't be able to show that

00:20:28.280 --> 00:20:34.320
very effectively with an instant replay not really because you're going to want

00:20:32.360 --> 00:20:38.360
to kind of draw the X's and O's and kind of go okay yeah here's what went down

00:20:36.520 --> 00:20:42.600
pause it for a second here's what went down this is that's more of an analysis

00:20:39.960 --> 00:20:45.080
thing that's not an instant replay thing instant replay here's the battle a

00:20:43.799 --> 00:20:50.640
couple people died it's like yeah I was watching that a little bit slower but hold on a second I didn't follow because

00:20:47.960 --> 00:20:56.600
the thing about a Sports Broadcast is think about who it's catering to the

00:20:52.960 --> 00:20:58.320
hardcore guys who really get you know

00:20:56.600 --> 00:21:01.000
League of Legends or Dota 2 or these these mob type games these guys are

00:20:59.799 --> 00:21:05.440
already watching on Twitch they're already aware of this if the objective

00:21:03.200 --> 00:21:09.679
of broadcasting on ESPN which it damn well is is to appeal to a more

00:21:07.520 --> 00:21:13.760
mainstream audience there's going to be no benefit to that they're going to look

00:21:10.919 --> 00:21:17.279
at that and go hold on a second I think it would be a benefit to that if they

00:21:14.960 --> 00:21:20.360
were a lot further down the line like if this was already mainstream like

00:21:18.440 --> 00:21:23.760
football yeah because they do that in football it makes more sense but then

00:21:21.640 --> 00:21:26.720
they're not they're not worried about what you're talking about which they

00:21:24.799 --> 00:21:30.400
should be worried about and you're right um that's interesting so I would see it

00:21:28.960 --> 00:21:35.559
being more like I was talking about the skill shot stuff y the the exciting this

00:21:33.080 --> 00:21:39.159
was close this barely missed like you can do it really slow and watch the

00:21:37.400 --> 00:21:42.840
skill shot missed by like a pixel or something like that would be cool I mean

00:21:41.039 --> 00:21:46.919
is that actually okay here I'm going to I'm going to reveal a little bit of my

00:21:44.159 --> 00:21:52.600
ignorance here in instant replays of a game like Dota 2 do you have alternate

00:21:49.480 --> 00:21:54.200
camera angles that you can control as a

00:21:52.600 --> 00:21:58.600
broadcaster if we were talking about League I would know um that's another

00:21:56.760 --> 00:22:03.440
thing they're there have spectators I'm I'm pretty freaking

00:22:01.080 --> 00:22:07.400
sure it has spectator ability so their casters would be able to have The

00:22:04.720 --> 00:22:12.440
Spectator camera which that's what I find exciting about an instant replay is

00:22:10.720 --> 00:22:15.960
you kind of like you you okay let's take hockey for example because I'm Canadian

00:22:14.080 --> 00:22:21.600
I it's probably the only sport I watch actually yeah so hockey for example um

00:22:19.240 --> 00:22:25.600
you saw the slap shot from the point and it's in the back of the net and you're

00:22:22.919 --> 00:22:30.799
just like okay but then the instant replay shows you what actually happened

00:22:29.120 --> 00:22:36.000
to make that happen so maybe there was a tip where where someone kind of yes it

00:22:33.320 --> 00:22:39.640
does slid in front of the goal camera's free okay so that makes a ton more sense

00:22:37.880 --> 00:22:43.440
it's just going to depend on how well they can execute it and right now

00:22:41.679 --> 00:22:46.799
there's a little bit of okay it's not quite perfect because they have the the

00:22:45.559 --> 00:22:53.400
streams that are designed for the more experienced viewers and then they actually have what are supposed to be

00:22:50.039 --> 00:22:56.159
more Noob accessible streams that are

00:22:53.400 --> 00:22:59.840
supposed to sort of take away from the or not use as much of the term

00:22:57.960 --> 00:23:04.120
terminology that a casual Observer might not understand but right now it's a bit

00:23:01.679 --> 00:23:09.000
of a mixed bag so there's talk of you know ganking when my mother's not going

00:23:06.760 --> 00:23:12.240
to understand what ganking what ganking is but then the flip side is they're

00:23:10.840 --> 00:23:17.760
dumbing it down a little bit too much sometimes explaining what the green bar above the character means which I but

00:23:16.320 --> 00:23:22.080
you know what the funny thing is what honestly they should probably do that but then they should also explain what

00:23:20.039 --> 00:23:24.559
ganking is it should be super Baseline they should explain what everything is

00:23:23.400 --> 00:23:32.880
but the problem is that where are you going to find a basic DOTA two cast

00:23:29.200 --> 00:23:36.679
yeah yeah yeah because those guys are

00:23:32.880 --> 00:23:38.520
not going to be accustomed to to Casting

00:23:36.679 --> 00:23:41.200
the game as if someone who doesn't understand what's going on is watching

00:23:39.840 --> 00:23:46.520
but they they should try and find like coaches there's coaches so they should

00:23:43.640 --> 00:23:49.760
try and find coaches that will stream it because it's not as important about

00:23:47.640 --> 00:23:53.320
being like the hype guy because often times there's the the technical guy and

00:23:51.440 --> 00:23:56.440
the hype guy if you're doing a two cter setup if you're doing a three cter setup

00:23:55.080 --> 00:24:00.840
a lot of times it's the technical guy the hype guy and then the guy that's mainly just controlling the camera

00:23:59.919 --> 00:24:05.120
because if you want to make it super cool you have someone control the camera what I'm hoping is that they have like a

00:24:03.760 --> 00:24:08.159
small army of people that are all controlling separate cameras so they can

00:24:06.840 --> 00:24:15.200
get those really cool instant replays that like you were talking about

00:24:11.600 --> 00:24:17.159
um but yeah like on a educational stream

00:24:15.200 --> 00:24:21.279
you wouldn't need the hype guy really just have two have two coaches

00:24:20.000 --> 00:24:24.440
that can be like oh well this is what they were thinking here and this is why

00:24:23.080 --> 00:24:28.760
they thought that these characters can do these different things so this is why they're using them in these different

00:24:26.799 --> 00:24:33.279
ways by the way he hits him with that giant spell his green bar goes down that

00:24:31.320 --> 00:24:38.320
represents his HP and when he casts that spell his blue bar you can't even say HP

00:24:35.440 --> 00:24:43.080
see as Gamers we catch I'm not a coach yeah fair enough yeah all right so guys

00:24:40.000 --> 00:24:43.919
I have a straw poll for you because in

00:24:43.080 --> 00:24:48.520
okay in outside of North America this kind of

00:24:46.919 --> 00:24:55.320
thing wouldn't be that big of a deal a televised game tournament it's like yeah

00:24:50.399 --> 00:24:58.080
okay whereas here this is this is a huge

00:24:55.320 --> 00:25:02.600
huge deal like huge deal this kind of thing doesn't happen over here so I'm

00:25:00.559 --> 00:25:08.360
posting a straw pull in the twitch chat if I could get the thing to load there

00:25:04.039 --> 00:25:10.720
we go here we go straw pole guys need to

00:25:08.360 --> 00:25:16.039
know what you think does a televised North American broadcast of a top tier

00:25:14.399 --> 00:25:20.720
gaming tournament like this I mean we're talking over $10 million of prize money

00:25:18.919 --> 00:25:26.080
with the compendium and valve's contribution does this validate gaming

00:25:23.799 --> 00:25:30.320
as a mainstream and let's let's not use the word sport let's say competition

00:25:28.120 --> 00:25:34.520
because I think there's a lot of people kind of get H up on the sport personally

00:25:32.120 --> 00:25:38.720
I get hung up on the sport it's not a sport we can call it an ort we can call

00:25:36.600 --> 00:25:42.399
it a a competition we can call it a whatever else but we can't really call

00:25:40.320 --> 00:25:48.120
it a sport at least opinion um so guys I'd love for

00:25:45.880 --> 00:25:51.240
you guys to hit hit us up on this straw pole and I want to see what you think in

00:25:49.799 --> 00:25:55.720
the meantime we'll move on to the next topic while you guys weigh in on this

00:25:53.640 --> 00:26:01.880
but uh you know I I don't know it's funny because as much as TV

00:25:58.200 --> 00:26:04.480
like broadcast television is a a dying

00:26:01.880 --> 00:26:10.480
Medium as opposed to a growing medium or at least not an explosive grow medium

00:26:06.720 --> 00:26:12.440
Twitches huge yes it's got a long tail

00:26:10.480 --> 00:26:16.720
on it it's going to be a long time before it's completely irrelevant and

00:26:13.720 --> 00:26:20.039
you know what's funny about it is even

00:26:16.720 --> 00:26:22.760
though you know I look at something like

00:26:20.039 --> 00:26:27.320
YouTube my my primary distribution platform or I look at something like

00:26:24.840 --> 00:26:32.919
broadcast television and I go okay if someone casted me in a TV commercial the

00:26:30.320 --> 00:26:38.399
actual reach of that the impact that that has on on my personal

00:26:35.799 --> 00:26:42.080
notoriety not a whole lot in terms of actual eyeballs looking at it but for

00:26:40.200 --> 00:26:47.840
some reason they've done such a good job over the years of being the prestigious

00:26:45.640 --> 00:26:53.640
thing compared to web and it's going to be a long time before that shifts even I

00:26:49.799 --> 00:26:55.159
still View tv as a bigger deal than

00:26:53.640 --> 00:26:59.240
being a big deal on YouTube when you're on YouTube You're internet famous yeah

00:26:57.440 --> 00:27:04.320
and the implication like the the tongue and cheek internet famous term comes

00:27:02.520 --> 00:27:08.399
from the lack of respect we have for people who are internet famous compared

00:27:06.080 --> 00:27:12.559
to people who are real famous because there's internet and then there's TV and

00:27:10.919 --> 00:27:15.640
then there's Silver Screen and it's going to be that way for a long

00:27:17.720 --> 00:27:23.440
time apparently apparently Josh from

00:27:21.039 --> 00:27:28.080
fractal is trying to buy air conditioning units for the office anding

00:27:27.159 --> 00:27:35.320
to check my not realizing that I'm still going to have to pay for the electricity which is

00:27:31.960 --> 00:27:36.799
not happening so he can buy the AC units

00:27:35.320 --> 00:27:42.559
wow but they're going to they're going to they're going to go wherever it is that they

00:27:38.960 --> 00:27:44.640
go W if we do AC here it'll be Central

00:27:42.559 --> 00:27:52.440
AC not those stupid window Mountain won't even pay for the electricity for a

00:27:47.519 --> 00:27:54.080
paid for AC unit all right my boss so so

00:27:52.440 --> 00:27:58.279
here you go here's what you guys said about the straw pole um I'll give you

00:27:56.360 --> 00:28:04.080
guys one more chance to to uh to weigh in right now let's just fire up the uh

00:28:01.080 --> 00:28:05.720
this guy right here people are asking me

00:28:04.080 --> 00:28:09.000
if I'm going to hire Barnacles what makes people think I can afford

00:28:07.120 --> 00:28:12.679
Barnacles what makes people think Barnacles lives here what makes people

00:28:10.799 --> 00:28:17.039
think Barnacles wants to move himself and his

00:28:14.880 --> 00:28:20.039
family there's been a lot of Twitter chatter about when I'm going to hire

00:28:18.559 --> 00:28:24.120
Barnacles I'm not going to hire Barnacles he's got his own YouTube

00:28:22.279 --> 00:28:28.919
channel that's actually growing at a reasonable rate he's got his own things

00:28:25.960 --> 00:28:33.000
to do anyway does a North American TV broadcast mean gaming is going

00:28:30.399 --> 00:28:38.240
mainstream we've got 60% of you saying yes but not for a while 20% of you

00:28:35.159 --> 00:28:41.720
saying yes now and the final 20% of you

00:28:38.240 --> 00:28:44.320
saying no that's ridiculous you know

00:28:41.720 --> 00:28:49.480
what I I would have said no that's ridiculous a year

00:28:45.799 --> 00:28:50.840
ago I'm going to agree with the 62% 61%

00:28:49.480 --> 00:28:56.399
yeah I'm going to go with those guys I don't think this is I think once once

00:28:53.679 --> 00:29:00.840
like all the major matches are cast on ESPN 2

00:28:58.840 --> 00:29:05.559
and I mean you got to look at you got to look at it like any sport the acceptance

00:29:03.440 --> 00:29:11.159
is going to come down to stuff that goes Way Beyond being broadcast on TV the NHL

00:29:08.919 --> 00:29:15.600
is broadcast on TV in the United States that doesn't change the fact that

00:29:12.399 --> 00:29:18.399
outside of maybe a dozen to a couple

00:29:15.600 --> 00:29:23.159
dozen areas that doesn't mean that the NHL really has any penetration compared

00:29:20.679 --> 00:29:30.480
to how widely accepted and how widely viewed it is in Canada yeah so watching

00:29:26.880 --> 00:29:32.919
the water usage statistics for the

00:29:30.480 --> 00:29:37.320
Olympic Games is hilarious during hockey matches yeah it was the uh it was I

00:29:35.120 --> 00:29:42.440
think the the gold medal the gold medal Canada game or something like that where

00:29:39.760 --> 00:29:46.559
basically nobody used the bathroom in the entire country while the game was on

00:29:44.840 --> 00:29:50.640
and then the the water pressure of the entire

00:29:47.840 --> 00:29:53.799
country got destroyed and as as as it went into overtime or something I forget

00:29:52.320 --> 00:29:58.320
what game this was exactly I think it was it was an Olympic game but as it

00:29:55.720 --> 00:30:01.559
went into overtime it got worse and worse cuz people would be kind of

00:29:59.760 --> 00:30:06.000
holding out holding out no I really need to go and then they'd wait for an overtime

00:30:03.799 --> 00:30:10.760
period oh hilarious all right ESPN to cast Dota 2

00:30:09.159 --> 00:30:15.240
tournament that's extremely exciting though I mean it's a turning point it's

00:30:12.399 --> 00:30:20.919
I think it's slightly like it's not I don't think it's enough because saying

00:30:17.640 --> 00:30:22.799
ESPN is casting it I think is almost a

00:30:20.919 --> 00:30:27.559
little bit sensationalist just because it's ESPN 3 yeah it's it's they well

00:30:25.919 --> 00:30:31.320
hold on they have that pregame cover on ESPN 2 that's the important part though

00:30:29.720 --> 00:30:36.360
is the pregame coverage and that's why I was saying once it's like once it's once

00:30:33.960 --> 00:30:41.240
that pregame coverage is all the major matches and once it's not the pregame

00:30:38.559 --> 00:30:45.279
once it's the final once it's like that kind of stuff I think that's more

00:30:42.960 --> 00:30:49.960
important but this is still extremely cool it's I just think it's it's like

00:30:47.600 --> 00:30:54.720
the first stone in the like walk that we need to create and it's not even that

00:30:51.600 --> 00:30:56.600
big of one right it's just very cool

00:30:54.720 --> 00:31:03.120
that it's actually there so this is a post from Builder on the Forum Google+

00:30:59.320 --> 00:31:08.039
now lets you use any name you

00:31:03.120 --> 00:31:10.519
want okay thank you Google I still wish

00:31:08.039 --> 00:31:16.799
late yeah it's it's a little late and it's a little frustrating I've already

00:31:12.600 --> 00:31:18.840
created you know my using a page for

00:31:16.799 --> 00:31:23.679
Linus Tech tips as opposed to just having a normal person account um I've

00:31:22.120 --> 00:31:30.360
already like I've already done all this stuff I've already gone through all this

00:31:25.960 --> 00:31:33.720
stress of every time I merge any Google

00:31:30.360 --> 00:31:36.760
service or create any new one or rename

00:31:33.720 --> 00:31:40.480
anything worrying about oh my God is it

00:31:36.760 --> 00:31:44.519
permanent now oh my god do I have to

00:31:40.480 --> 00:31:47.360
completely junk this YouTube account

00:31:44.519 --> 00:31:52.000
because instead of Techquickie with two capitals I forgot to make the second

00:31:49.399 --> 00:31:57.840
queue a capital and I cannot change that because thank you Google uh

00:31:55.039 --> 00:32:04.519
so to me it's just too a little too late it's got 4,300 pluses on the on the post

00:32:01.880 --> 00:32:08.000
that's shared on go+ of course and one thing that I thought was really cool

00:32:05.960 --> 00:32:13.639
about it is that their um their development lead is actually in the

00:32:10.320 --> 00:32:16.159
Google+ comments check this out replying

00:32:13.639 --> 00:32:21.360
to individual people's concerns about the change because the reality of it is

00:32:18.720 --> 00:32:28.080
not everyone's happy about it some people liked the real name policy on go+

00:32:25.240 --> 00:32:33.279
and were users of Google because they felt like the real name policy took some

00:32:30.519 --> 00:32:38.039
of the trolling out of it I don't know is there

00:32:35.360 --> 00:32:43.080
anything uh he he said specifically at one point um where some people are

00:32:41.240 --> 00:32:46.840
saying it's come out in play time for trolls but he said one of the reasons it

00:32:44.799 --> 00:32:51.080
is safe to do at this launch is their troll smashing department has gotten

00:32:48.559 --> 00:32:55.200
very good at their jobs which is that's cool and all but I don't necessarily

00:32:53.480 --> 00:33:00.200
what are you doing don't worry about it carry on okay um that's cool and all but

00:32:58.399 --> 00:33:04.360
I don't necessarily know if that'll help I'm sure there will be what was it Bob

00:33:02.279 --> 00:33:08.279
and his tank or whatever I'm sure they will come back um but I don't even know

00:33:06.360 --> 00:33:11.159
if I care I would much rather have personally at least much rather be able

00:33:09.679 --> 00:33:15.799
to have an account which doesn't have my name on it I never had an account that

00:33:13.080 --> 00:33:19.080
have my name on it right I I once once they were like trying to force you to

00:33:16.960 --> 00:33:22.320
merge your accounts I just stopped using my personal account on YouTube and

00:33:20.440 --> 00:33:25.679
started using my work one so I didn't have to merge them so I could keep them

00:33:23.960 --> 00:33:29.559
separate and now I might merge my old personal account right just cuz like

00:33:27.919 --> 00:33:34.200
that's stupid I don't want to do that for me it's frustrating because I don't

00:33:31.720 --> 00:33:38.080
go by my by my real name really like Austin Evans goes by his real name

00:33:36.399 --> 00:33:44.519
across the board on the YouTube channel on Twitter everywhere whereas I don't go

00:33:41.679 --> 00:33:49.360
by that I go by Linus Tech or Linus Tech tips or whatever else not because I

00:33:46.320 --> 00:33:51.760
think it's better but because I think

00:33:49.360 --> 00:33:56.120
it's it just is what I did in the first place and I can't change it thanks

00:33:53.639 --> 00:33:59.519
Google so that's where we're at how I've always used the internet and like

00:33:57.679 --> 00:34:03.159
including Forum sign up and everything that I've always done until fairly

00:34:01.080 --> 00:34:07.760
recently when I've had a public Persona is I've used this thing which is called

00:34:05.279 --> 00:34:14.320
fakenamegenerator.com and all you have to do is put in a

00:34:11.879 --> 00:34:17.639
gender a name set which there's a lot of different name sets to choose from and a

00:34:16.320 --> 00:34:21.960
country which there's also tons of different countries to choose from and

00:34:19.440 --> 00:34:26.399
it gives you like all the form fill inable information wow that you could

00:34:24.599 --> 00:34:32.000
like possibly need it even gives you a fake job job it even gives you a fake

00:34:28.679 --> 00:34:35.919
SSN it gives you a fake vehicle it gives

00:34:32.000 --> 00:34:37.399
you like you I drive a 2004 Lexus LFC

00:34:35.919 --> 00:34:43.520
what do you drive badass apparently a 1995 Hyundai at Lantra

00:34:40.919 --> 00:34:47.320
yeah my name is apparently Stacy B Warner wow that's interesting mine's

00:34:45.639 --> 00:34:54.599
Justin M Anderson you got something to tell

00:34:50.440 --> 00:34:56.679
me mind you you're 29 and I'm 68 so as

00:34:54.599 --> 00:35:01.880
much cooler than you as I am right now I'll be dead soon yeah yeah I haven't

00:35:00.079 --> 00:35:06.880
like I don't know I haven't put in any yeah the gender set to random and stuff

00:35:03.800 --> 00:35:08.520
but um that's what I used to do mainly

00:35:06.880 --> 00:35:12.920
when I was younger because I just didn't want to give my information to people

00:35:09.920 --> 00:35:15.040
and I still don't normally like I think

00:35:12.920 --> 00:35:19.119
I have my real information filled in and just a few main services that I'm really

00:35:17.040 --> 00:35:22.240
worried about it would be very damaging if I lost them right so that if I called

00:35:21.160 --> 00:35:26.480
up and they're like what is all your information I could be like well I know

00:35:24.760 --> 00:35:31.839
that I don't have to make this stuff up because yeah and if they're like oh we need to

00:35:29.359 --> 00:35:35.599
see like an ID right because there's a few a few different Services that'll do

00:35:33.680 --> 00:35:39.440
that then I can actually show my real ID and it's fine you know the funny thing

00:35:37.040 --> 00:35:44.480
about that whole thing is I'm not I'm not sure how I feel about people being

00:35:42.520 --> 00:35:49.680
people using a real identity online for certain things for some stuff I like I

00:35:47.000 --> 00:35:54.200
don't okay again so my problem is that I wanted to go buy an alias because my

00:35:51.480 --> 00:35:59.520
Alias is much more wellknown than my actual name but but elas is your I mean

00:35:58.240 --> 00:36:03.920
but well it's part of my name and there aren't that many luses so it's really

00:36:01.359 --> 00:36:08.560
not very private yeah um compared to if I went by you know uh Bob the PC Builder

00:36:07.440 --> 00:36:14.079
as if that wasn't going to result in a loss Tech Builder TV something something

00:36:11.440 --> 00:36:19.480
like that I for some things online I still don't mind people using their real

00:36:16.920 --> 00:36:24.319
names because removing that anonymity does remove a little bit of Butthead

00:36:22.160 --> 00:36:28.440
yeah but then at the same time if if someone even if you're saying something

00:36:25.960 --> 00:36:33.319
that isn't butt head and someone takes offense to it

00:36:29.800 --> 00:36:35.640
somehow there are there are 100,000

00:36:33.319 --> 00:36:39.079
legitimate really great reasons to not have to reveal your identity online

00:36:37.280 --> 00:36:44.079
totally get it I think there would be interesting places like uh like the FCC

00:36:41.720 --> 00:36:46.560
Forum but then that's also scary because government could be pissed at you

00:36:45.280 --> 00:36:50.720
exactly so I just I just don't think it's that cut and dried and apparently neither does Google they're still

00:36:48.880 --> 00:36:55.440
defending their old position of asking for people's real names while as they

00:36:53.359 --> 00:36:58.920
continue so originally they what allowed nicknames and then now they're just

00:36:57.319 --> 00:37:03.319
removing the whole thing entirely so as they've stepped back from that Hardline

00:37:01.280 --> 00:37:08.280
policy they're still saying that the old one was what it was yeah um which I

00:37:06.280 --> 00:37:14.640

Brian Miller 1111 all right Steve G I'm GNA go ahead

00:39:19.599 --> 00:39:26.040
and follow you on the Twitter's here and uh you are the big winner

00:39:24.079 --> 00:39:31.720
congratulations so go ahead and send me a DM we'll get your information sorted

00:39:28.000 --> 00:39:34.040
out and uh you get $120 worth of

00:39:31.720 --> 00:39:38.839
clothing from 54 but of course we have to tell you about 54 service so

00:39:35.760 --> 00:39:40.640
basically if you hate shopping 54 is

00:39:38.839 --> 00:39:43.480
designed for you if you hate people looking at you like they're judging you

00:39:42.119 --> 00:39:50.440
and you pick the wrong clothes in the store do you get that feeling no really

00:39:46.640 --> 00:39:53.560
nope I do I just I get really anxious I

00:39:50.440 --> 00:39:55.240
don't care at all but then that also

00:39:53.560 --> 00:39:58.720
makes the shopping experience not good and also helps with 5 for you know what

00:39:57.400 --> 00:40:05.920
because then I don't have to care it just shows up the problem for me is that

00:40:02.720 --> 00:40:08.560
I like I okay the problem for me is I

00:40:05.920 --> 00:40:13.920
have like this weird mental block where like if you look bad because you don't

00:40:11.359 --> 00:40:19.800
care and you obviously just picked up whatever then I kind of get that whereas

00:40:17.440 --> 00:40:25.079
if you look bad even though you obviously tried really hard to look good

00:40:22.760 --> 00:40:28.800
I can get a little judgy me too I I get the exact same thing actually that's a

00:40:26.440 --> 00:40:33.960
very good point get a little judgy so when I'm shopping I fall into this trap

00:40:31.680 --> 00:40:38.040
where either I have to pick stuff that looks like I don't care and I'll never

00:40:35.640 --> 00:40:41.560
look that good or I have to try to pick stuff that looks like I tried and risk

00:40:40.440 --> 00:40:45.760
looking like a dumbass so I just I hate shot so anyway

00:40:43.839 --> 00:40:49.839
the way 54 works is they've got your own personal stylist that goes through and

00:40:47.800 --> 00:40:55.760
handpick stuff to send you every month you get $120 sticker price worth of

00:40:52.800 --> 00:41:01.880
clothing for 60 bucks every month and if you use our code here bit. Le Linus FFC

00:40:59.040 --> 00:41:06.079
and offer code Linus you get $15 off of your first package so the qu the quality

00:41:04.599 --> 00:41:09.920
of the clothing is nice we've got lots of it around here and basically you

00:41:08.560 --> 00:41:15.880
don't have to worry about it you enter a quick Sur you do a quick survey 60 seconds and you enter like your shoe

00:41:14.160 --> 00:41:21.960
size and you kind of pick a couple things that you think are good I did it in 54 seconds or something like that and

00:41:19.480 --> 00:41:25.599
then you are signed up and ready to rock so there you go guys uh what's up I'm

00:41:24.560 --> 00:41:30.319
going to test it I'm going to see how fast fast you can do all right in the

00:41:27.920 --> 00:41:34.079
meantime I actually have another giveaway so Squarespace is back did you

00:41:32.280 --> 00:41:37.599
know that Squarespace is one of our longest running sponsors on the show I'm

00:41:36.040 --> 00:41:42.680
not surprised our guys actually really like them yeah and we use them both

00:41:40.000 --> 00:41:46.400
personally and for business so there you go Squarespace is awesome what do they

00:41:44.400 --> 00:41:49.800
actually do for those of you who still don't know don't worry I'm not going to

00:41:47.640 --> 00:41:55.520
play the song again uh what Squarespace does is they have flexible beautiful

00:41:52.920 --> 00:41:59.480
websites that are easy to use and yet customizable all you got to do is sign

00:41:57.839 --> 00:42:05.359
up for a twoe trial over on squarespace.com Linus preferably so I

00:42:02.599 --> 00:42:09.800
get credit for the referral and the idea is that whether people are browsing your

00:42:06.839 --> 00:42:13.720
site on a phone or on a PC or whatever kind of device tablet whatever it's

00:42:11.359 --> 00:42:18.680
going to look good it's going to operate correctly which can be a huge problem

00:42:16.119 --> 00:42:22.800
even with mostly TurnKey solutions that involve picking a theme and then you

00:42:20.680 --> 00:42:25.800
know uploading your own content into it it's going to be mostly function well

00:42:24.760 --> 00:42:30.480
not mostly functional it will be functional unlike the other ones that are mostly functional and it'll look

00:42:28.359 --> 00:42:34.760
good doing it the performance is good even on things like our linusmediagroup

00:42:32.000 --> 00:42:38.839
tocom site I find okay I mean this is cool I can operate my image slider with

00:42:36.440 --> 00:42:42.280
my touchcreen stuff that I wouldn't have necessar how long did it take you 48

00:42:40.520 --> 00:42:45.400
seconds and I sat on one question for a while and then remembered that I was

00:42:43.559 --> 00:42:48.000
timed and then kept going so there you go it actually doesn't take very long

00:42:47.000 --> 00:42:53.800
but you still have to enter your email and password so maybe that's your extra 12 seconds but anyway the point is we

00:42:52.480 --> 00:42:58.079
love Squarespace we use them all the time they're inexpensive and we've even

00:42:55.720 --> 00:43:02.640
stressed tested it we have taken down a lot of websites on the W show we took

00:43:00.119 --> 00:43:07.119
down NOA once we did which was kind of funny cuz we love nocta just by saying

00:43:05.040 --> 00:43:10.119
hey guys something something knock TOA I want I wanted to show them a product or

00:43:08.520 --> 00:43:12.839
something I think and everyone went there the website went down we have

00:43:11.680 --> 00:43:18.960
never been able to take down a Squarespace website with the w show

00:43:15.960 --> 00:43:20.920
flooding it so as much as the plans are

00:43:18.960 --> 00:43:26.240
affordable they can also scale depending on your needs your portfolio you can do

00:43:23.640 --> 00:43:30.160
a Blog you can do a store lots and lot it will take naturally because it's a

00:43:28.440 --> 00:43:34.839
website if you have zero visitors then you have 2,000 5,000 visitors it might

00:43:32.680 --> 00:43:38.400
take like a second to catch up but we've never taken one down yes we've slowed it

00:43:37.280 --> 00:43:42.680
down at the beginning and then it'll go like okay I'm good and then it'll be able to manage it we've never actually

00:43:41.240 --> 00:43:46.160
taken one that was actually pretty funny because we that was a live demo where

00:43:44.839 --> 00:43:50.319
I'd never tested it before and I was like let's see if we can take down minus

00:43:47.920 --> 00:43:54.000
Medi group.com this will be a benchmark cuz I do all kinds of stuff my sponsors

00:43:51.960 --> 00:43:58.079
hate on my show I think or have the potential to hate misquoting making them

00:43:56.040 --> 00:44:02.200
agree to give even more people clothes stress testing them without them knowing

00:44:00.440 --> 00:44:05.520
it's coming and what happened was it just kind of for about 5 Seconds 10

00:44:04.319 --> 00:44:11.680
seconds it was like and then it was fine yeah all right

00:44:08.640 --> 00:44:13.680

apparently some of it is like cutting hair and other stuff oh I guess it's

00:44:43.240 --> 00:44:48.280
probably a photography yeah I was just going to say if he's a photographer he

00:44:46.480 --> 00:44:53.680

00:44:50.640 --> 00:44:55.359
Street stuff here's like a market look

at the way it works and it actually works according oh what are these oh I

00:44:57.599 --> 00:45:03.400
don't know if he set all this stuff oh okay cool so it just takes that and it rotates it I haven't actually played

00:45:02.599 --> 00:45:08.280
around with all their different templates they have about 20 different templates depending on what kind of a

00:45:06.520 --> 00:45:13.200
site you want and then they're all optimized to work in different ways but

00:45:09.760 --> 00:45:14.960
there you go Brandon Olsen enjoy and

00:45:13.200 --> 00:45:19.559

want to watch it in the archive later that's fine too it's not going to affect your chances to win or anything but I'm

00:45:35.640 --> 00:45:40.040
just trying to say guys fine don't you don't think it's fine no I think they if

00:45:38.960 --> 00:45:45.480
they want to watch in the archive I think they have to watch it twice they have to watch it twice you have to watch

00:45:43.880 --> 00:45:50.040
it live right now and the hell are you talking about this is this is how the

00:45:48.240 --> 00:45:53.280
internet works it's not they can't close this tab or else they'll break the

00:45:51.440 --> 00:45:56.200
entirety of the internet all right so anyway guys thanks to our sponsors 54

00:45:55.040 --> 00:46:00.200
and Squarespace for making making this show possible without sponsors we can't

00:45:58.319 --> 00:46:03.319
make this show I mean we could but we'd have no money and then we wouldn't be

00:46:02.000 --> 00:46:09.160
able to make the show anymore would be like in the crage wearing Paras because

00:46:06.720 --> 00:46:12.920
it's so cool okay you should not say stuff like that because of how many

00:46:10.720 --> 00:46:17.480
people have been like I really liked the show when you were in the garage with

00:46:14.720 --> 00:46:23.119
parz it was we were legitimately uncomfortable not not

00:46:20.280 --> 00:46:27.200
good it's like that actually sucked it did we were cold we weren't wearing them

00:46:25.520 --> 00:46:31.000
because we were Canadian and making a joke yeah now it's the opposite now

00:46:29.599 --> 00:46:35.520
we're like what the hell Canada why is it so hot I know it's so hot in this

00:46:33.400 --> 00:46:38.920
room I'm not buying air conditioning though we're paying for the electricity

00:46:37.480 --> 00:46:44.280
for air conditioning that is purchased for you that's right ridiculous anyways

00:46:42.559 --> 00:46:50.119
I'm basically a terrible person all right so we've got our next

00:46:46.640 --> 00:46:54.319
story here the LG G3

00:46:50.119 --> 00:46:57.079
beat really why I mean when I when I

00:46:54.319 --> 00:47:01.960
heard this look at this is ads for the Highlander shirt all over my

00:46:59.720 --> 00:47:06.720
internet that's so funny okay does anyone else get those like is anyone

00:47:04.319 --> 00:47:10.119
else I'm asking the oh no I've I've heard from people on The Forum and stuff

00:47:08.280 --> 00:47:13.559
yeah yeah yeah that's so cool yeah and people on Twitch chat last week were

00:47:11.440 --> 00:47:16.839
like yeah yeah it's all over my internet just like that's awesome so that's for

00:47:15.480 --> 00:47:23.559
the Teespring campaign to get a commemorative Highlander shirt there's four days left um actually we upgraded

00:47:21.240 --> 00:47:27.040
the hoodies is that done now yeah it's done so we didn't change the price of

00:47:25.400 --> 00:47:30.559
the hoodies but they're now canvas something hoodies instead of Gilden

00:47:28.559 --> 00:47:34.760
hoodies so I'm I'm picking up a hoodie when I at least one then cuz those those

00:47:33.359 --> 00:47:39.640
those look a fair bit I love how it's an out of number that makes no sense yeah

00:47:37.040 --> 00:47:42.920
346 sold out of 150 so it's teespring.com Highlander land if you

00:47:41.520 --> 00:47:46.680
guys want to check that out we already hit the target so no pressure we are

00:47:45.200 --> 00:47:50.800
definitely shipping them and I'm super excited about that anyway so the LG g3b

00:47:49.280 --> 00:47:56.119
when I first heard this name I kind of went okay LG G3 beat so it's probably

00:47:53.520 --> 00:48:00.599
like like a music optimized version of it cuz HTC did that where they had like

00:47:58.880 --> 00:48:06.599
it was just a software layer or something um I thought it was

00:48:04.000 --> 00:48:10.079
legitimately um like they're like oh yeah there's some phone that's better

00:48:07.760 --> 00:48:13.319
than the LG G3 I didn't even think it was an LG phone you thought beat sounded

00:48:11.880 --> 00:48:18.880
better oh3 beat oh cuz you know you know how

00:48:16.720 --> 00:48:22.880
sometimes people title things they they there's like there's a news way of

00:48:20.240 --> 00:48:27.640
titling something and you can say LG3 beat as in something this headline if

00:48:24.559 --> 00:48:30.960
you miss the capitalized B it reads LG

00:48:27.640 --> 00:48:33.160
G3 beat with 5 in HT display laser

00:48:30.960 --> 00:48:36.400
autofocus camera goes official it's like what does that actually it sounded kind

00:48:34.760 --> 00:48:40.680
of weird but I thought it was something had beat the LG3 and I started reading

00:48:38.520 --> 00:48:44.000
it I was like oh what and cuz the the photo they look so similar yeah they

00:48:42.559 --> 00:48:48.400
look I thought it might have just been a zoom out of the same phone or something

00:48:46.040 --> 00:48:52.480
right I yeah did not catch on right away all right so here we go it's got a 5 in

00:48:50.400 --> 00:48:59.760
HD so that is 720p IPS display and again back back to

00:48:55.920 --> 00:49:02.400
the iPhone 6 I don't mind that I don't

00:48:59.760 --> 00:49:07.520
think it's perfect but it's so much better than not 720p so whatever we were

00:49:05.160 --> 00:49:11.960
using before something by 480 it's so much better than that that yeah that

00:49:10.000 --> 00:49:16.720
distance or that difference sorry is extremely dress I'm okay with it they're

00:49:13.839 --> 00:49:22.160
talking about the screen to body ratio although I think they mean percentage of

00:49:18.680 --> 00:49:24.720
74.1% screen to the rest body so it's

00:49:22.160 --> 00:49:28.760
very much about the screen experience just like the G3 three with its very

00:49:26.359 --> 00:49:31.920
slim bezels the specs have been significantly downgraded so you still

00:49:30.400 --> 00:49:36.400
get the laser focus camera but you don't get a 13 megapixel rear camera anymore

00:49:33.599 --> 00:49:41.599
it's 8 megapixels now and the processing power is like in the Bas basically in

00:49:38.440 --> 00:49:44.559
the toilet 1.2 GHz cortex A7 adreno 305

00:49:41.599 --> 00:49:48.319
GPU only 1 gig of RAM compared to two or three depending on the storage capacity

00:49:46.200 --> 00:49:53.359
of the bigger one and only 8 gigs of internal memory with a 2540 Mah hour

00:49:51.000 --> 00:49:58.240
battery that is fortunately also still user removable it still has a micr SD

00:49:55.599 --> 00:50:06.240
expansion slot and basically I guess what I have to say here is this either

00:50:02.520 --> 00:50:08.680
validates HTC's strategy with the One

00:50:06.240 --> 00:50:13.680
Mini and the One Mini 2 where they take that same high-end build quality and

00:50:11.040 --> 00:50:17.400
look and that aluminum design and in order to cost it down enough to really

00:50:15.839 --> 00:50:22.640
make any difference especially for someone buying on contract they put way

00:50:20.440 --> 00:50:28.559
lower in specs because honestly those chips are not that much of the cost of a

00:50:25.680 --> 00:50:33.240
phone like it it it's a factor but you just by downgrading the CPU like in a in

00:50:30.920 --> 00:50:38.960
a computer for example downgrading the CPU and GPU alone you can reduce the

00:50:36.359 --> 00:50:42.799
price of a PC by half yep depending on what you're looking at versus like a

00:50:40.240 --> 00:50:46.920
very high NPC versus a low and one easy with a phone that's not the case we're

00:50:44.839 --> 00:50:52.319
talking about maybe they shave you know 20 30 40 bucks off the bomb cost that's

00:50:50.160 --> 00:50:57.160
not the difference between an $800 flagship phone and a399 phone so when

00:50:55.480 --> 00:51:00.160
they keep that build quality in there they can't really drive the price down

00:50:58.680 --> 00:51:04.240
that much that's why low-end phones are plastic and stuff so this either

00:51:02.000 --> 00:51:09.640
validates HTC strategy of delivering much lower specs but still a really nice

00:51:06.440 --> 00:51:11.960
feel or it's LG going down that same

00:51:09.640 --> 00:51:16.559
disastrous path I guess yeah it remains to be seen you had a really interesting

00:51:13.720 --> 00:51:21.040
note here though should jump into the skin performance yeah with the one the

00:51:18.799 --> 00:51:24.640
one mini2 uh one of the articles I was looking at I think it was The Verge

00:51:22.400 --> 00:51:27.319
article pointed out that the One Mini 2 is I I don't

00:51:25.920 --> 00:51:33.319
okay whoever it was don't remember if it was The Verge I was reading up on it and they basically made an interesting point

00:51:30.240 --> 00:51:36.000
they said the One Mini 2 is still a good

00:51:33.319 --> 00:51:40.160
phone even older smartphone specs and we've gotten to that point now can still

00:51:38.119 --> 00:51:46.640
deliver a really good experience but the issue that I worry

00:51:42.680 --> 00:51:50.000
about here is that LG's skin is not as

00:51:46.640 --> 00:51:52.200
lightweight as since or or just a stock

00:51:50.000 --> 00:51:55.880
Google Experience like what you have on the Moto G which is also a very lows

00:51:54.079 --> 00:51:59.920
speec phone that still performs okay my wife's been using one for the

00:51:57.640 --> 00:52:04.079
last few months now and she does complain about it but it's not that it's

00:52:02.559 --> 00:52:08.920
usable it's not like her old phone or anything like that so I worry based on

00:52:06.920 --> 00:52:14.119
that LG skin is not that lightweight if performance is going to

00:52:10.920 --> 00:52:16.640
be okay on the G3 beat that is pretty

00:52:14.119 --> 00:52:21.359
interesting whoa that was a loud knock um that I I don't know the skin is

00:52:19.680 --> 00:52:25.400
interesting but then at the same time they could have a lighter weight skin I

00:52:23.280 --> 00:52:29.079
doubt it I doubt it they could cuz there certain things that are significantly

00:52:26.880 --> 00:52:34.440
lower like in my G3 review I show multitasking on HTC versus LG and their

00:52:32.359 --> 00:52:37.040
multitasking is really versatile like you can zoom in and zoom out and stuff

00:52:35.760 --> 00:52:41.280
depending on how many things you want to see but it's heavy it takes a while to

00:52:39.839 --> 00:52:46.000
load like it's it's something that I noticed before I did a side-by-side

00:52:43.480 --> 00:52:50.319
comparison like that's never a good sign yeah it's a big difference yeah

00:52:48.319 --> 00:52:53.760
interesting I don't I don't know it's something that they said in here though

00:52:51.599 --> 00:52:57.000
is the smartphone manufacturers cannot ignore this growing segment of consumers

00:52:55.559 --> 00:53:02.480
who want the best balance of looks features performance and of course price

00:52:59.880 --> 00:53:07.559
um I like how he says that while his company is jumping on that bandwagon at

00:53:04.440 --> 00:53:09.400
the same time basically we cannot ignore

00:53:07.559 --> 00:53:13.680
this growing segment of consumers yes either way it's it's I

00:53:12.119 --> 00:53:18.559
think I think they're right it's getting to the point where a lot of people don't

00:53:15.839 --> 00:53:21.119
need the flagship phones for a while there you basically needed to get a

00:53:19.839 --> 00:53:25.520
flagship phone or else you're getting a piece of crap that's true but the issue

00:53:23.319 --> 00:53:30.000
is that that's not even true anymore so now consumers are being forced to choose

00:53:27.880 --> 00:53:34.839
between something with okay build quality something like a Nexus 5 but

00:53:32.559 --> 00:53:39.760
bleeding edge specs versus something that's going to have LG G3 or HTC1 type

00:53:38.240 --> 00:53:45.160
aluminum backing like that kind of stuff that really does cost a lot of money and

00:53:42.680 --> 00:53:48.920
much much lower end specifications I mean the killer for me is the 8 gigs of

00:53:47.000 --> 00:53:54.599
onboard storage I can live with 16 gigs as long

00:53:51.319 --> 00:53:55.760
as I have SD expansion yeah yeah a lot

00:53:54.599 --> 00:54:00.640
of apps are not going to want to live off that SD card yeah and even and yeah

00:53:58.480 --> 00:54:06.280
exactly and games are getting bigger and bigger all the time on Android y I mean

00:54:02.799 --> 00:54:09.599
there's that rumor on the street about

00:54:06.280 --> 00:54:11.280
uh you know some Android gaming device

00:54:09.599 --> 00:54:17.400
that may or may not be surfacing at some point in the near future I I I can't say

00:54:13.839 --> 00:54:20.880
anything because um when I don't know

00:54:17.400 --> 00:54:22.400
anything I can speculate uh so anyway

00:54:20.880 --> 00:54:28.440
something that may or may not be coming at some point um I mean andro is a valid

00:54:25.720 --> 00:54:31.680
gaming platform you look at I I do most of my gaming on Android even if I'm

00:54:30.079 --> 00:54:35.960
using gamestream I was just going to say no not on not Android games yeah but

00:54:33.920 --> 00:54:39.720
what needs to happen is game developers need to get on board the whole Android

00:54:37.799 --> 00:54:42.319
thing but we need devices that are really delivering a great Android gaming

00:54:41.200 --> 00:54:46.680
experience and it's that whole chicken and egg thing speaking of chicken and

00:54:44.319 --> 00:54:51.400
egg things Mozilla is attempting to improve jpeg how you like that I like

00:54:49.480 --> 00:54:56.680
that that was a very interesting segue but I like what they're doing here a lot

00:54:53.240 --> 00:54:58.280
because um this is so much better than

00:54:56.680 --> 00:55:02.079
Google's approach it is so much better than Google's approach it makes so much

00:54:59.799 --> 00:55:05.680
more sense because Google's promoting something that is only kind of kind of

00:55:04.160 --> 00:55:10.880
we should say what Mozilla is doing first then we'll then we'll like slam

00:55:08.280 --> 00:55:15.880
Google for being dumb so what's Mozilla doing Mozilla is making a new

00:55:12.960 --> 00:55:22.000
compression library for jpeg so where is it called Moz jpeg 2.0 Moz jpeg 2.0

00:55:19.920 --> 00:55:25.319
which will work for when you're compiling jpegs but then it's read in

00:55:24.079 --> 00:55:30.079
the exact same way so everything that reads jpegs right now can read it just

00:55:27.359 --> 00:55:36.920
totally fine it'll take a slightly longer amount of time to create that

00:55:32.559 --> 00:55:38.920
JPEG but then reading it is faster so

00:55:36.920 --> 00:55:44.680
that's awesome because it takes like no time to create one right now at all so

00:55:42.319 --> 00:55:48.760
so should be fine if it takes ever so slightly longer than basically

00:55:46.200 --> 00:55:54.079
non-existent I think it's okay and if it's making uh where is it 30% smaller

00:55:51.039 --> 00:55:56.000
or something I think to 15% smaller

00:55:54.079 --> 00:55:59.440
which isn't as good as Chrome uh approach but it actually works with

00:55:57.839 --> 00:56:03.000
everything yeah which is pretty important and I mean making images

00:56:01.480 --> 00:56:09.039
smaller on the web isn't the end of the world these days anymore like it used to

00:56:05.000 --> 00:56:12.680
be that loading images was the bulk of

00:56:09.039 --> 00:56:14.440
you know web traffic where not video yes

00:56:12.680 --> 00:56:18.960
and but at the same time we're running into things like uh imer imager whatever

00:56:17.160 --> 00:56:22.160
you want to say where instead of having a few images on the website and that

00:56:20.359 --> 00:56:25.960
being an issue now it's the whole website is just images so that I can

00:56:24.240 --> 00:56:31.079
actually take a little so even another let's take the average even another 10%

00:56:28.480 --> 00:56:34.319
faster another 10% less bandwidth used by those images is all going to be

00:56:33.039 --> 00:56:38.920
really positive stuff this can really help people that are in say Australia

00:56:36.920 --> 00:56:42.119
that have terrible craptastic internet or other random areas around the world

00:56:40.720 --> 00:56:47.440
like We complain about our internet all the time then mods that I have in the

00:56:45.480 --> 00:56:53.079
mod chat post a screenshot of their speed speed test and I'm just like sad

00:56:50.880 --> 00:56:59.000
face my internet is Godlike compared to yours so yeah so by comparison Google's

00:56:56.079 --> 00:57:04.160
been pushing their uh webp which is a still image derivative of their web M

00:57:01.039 --> 00:57:06.000
Cod codec which actually is better I

00:57:04.160 --> 00:57:11.839
mean technically it's better we looking at up to 30% smaller images with webp

00:57:09.440 --> 00:57:16.160
but the problem and Facebook did an experiment Facebook the kings of

00:57:13.520 --> 00:57:20.359
experimenting with things just randomly did an experiment where they started

00:57:17.640 --> 00:57:25.079
serving up pages with webp and the problem was that no browsers other than

00:57:22.160 --> 00:57:30.400
Chrome or Opera supported it and then number two is that a lot of people use

00:57:28.079 --> 00:57:33.359
Facebook as cloud storage so they actually upload their photos because

00:57:31.599 --> 00:57:36.920
they don't care about Pixel Perfect quality being preserved forever so

00:57:35.400 --> 00:57:41.039
they're just uploading their photos to Facebook and then downloading them as they need them they were downloading

00:57:39.640 --> 00:57:45.680
these webp photos and none of their local file viewers were able to look at

00:57:43.200 --> 00:57:51.400
them that's a big issue in my opinion because I don't necessarily use Facebook

00:57:48.200 --> 00:57:53.640
as web photo storage I never have but I

00:57:51.400 --> 00:57:59.799
have downloaded images off Facebook when I'm like say I need a new Twitter banner

00:57:56.480 --> 00:58:02.400
and the Facebook thing is really wide so

00:57:59.799 --> 00:58:05.839
like my brother's Facebook thing or my mom's Facebook thing if she wants a

00:58:04.160 --> 00:58:10.039
Twitter banner I can be like yeah just go to your Facebook one right click on

00:58:07.480 --> 00:58:13.640
it view image save image upload it again to Twitter and it's probably

00:58:11.760 --> 00:58:17.440
fine considering so many different websites are moving to this like wide

00:58:15.599 --> 00:58:21.039
big banner kind of style you can just bounce them across each other and you

00:58:19.079 --> 00:58:25.000
can do that from any location if you have them on one of those services so

00:58:23.200 --> 00:58:31.520
being unable to download them again is kind of dumb so I mean maybe a long time

00:58:29.559 --> 00:58:37.000
in the future but you look at how long it takes to really move the dial on a

00:58:33.760 --> 00:58:40.440
web standard I mean flash is still here

00:58:37.000 --> 00:58:42.760
why it's still causing browser crashes

00:58:40.440 --> 00:58:46.280
for me on a regular basis remember when I was like uh wow maila is screwing up

00:58:44.920 --> 00:58:52.359
right now and then I was like wow no it's not I'm just at like 98% or 95% RAM

00:58:49.599 --> 00:59:00.000
usage uh a gig of that was Flash it's like w

00:58:56.440 --> 00:59:01.920
really why go away I have like one

00:59:00.000 --> 00:59:08.200
YouTube video open what are you doing yeah so I mean I I I see something

00:59:06.200 --> 00:59:12.720
like the jpeg improvements as a much more feasible way to actually achieve

00:59:10.680 --> 00:59:17.039
something versus so Milla is trying to achieve something real and Google's

00:59:15.799 --> 00:59:22.480
trying to achieve something that will hopefully be like in the future maybe or

00:59:20.880 --> 00:59:29.079
something maybe so I'm sure they could make photo viewer work with webp

00:59:25.280 --> 00:59:31.640
speaking of things that right now are uh

00:59:29.079 --> 00:59:36.119
right now are not really a thing but could be really important in the future

00:59:33.680 --> 00:59:41.960
project see another segue bam got Segways Project Ara Dev board ships

00:59:39.400 --> 00:59:46.640
later this month so the sign up is actually closed now uh yesterday was the

00:59:44.720 --> 00:59:52.760
last opportunity to sign up and Google is evaluating who gets the equipment

00:59:49.760 --> 00:59:54.200
based on how interesting their idea is

00:59:52.760 --> 00:59:57.559
as well as uh something else so basically they're actually going through

00:59:55.799 --> 01:00:02.319
all these submissions but for those of you who need a refresher Project Ara is

00:59:59.760 --> 01:00:06.880
the modular smartphone concept now this is a concept image right here of like

01:00:04.920 --> 01:00:11.200
remember phone blocks so this is the the real version of that so this concept

01:00:08.920 --> 01:00:14.559
image right here shows backings of something that looks like a fablet with

01:00:12.839 --> 01:00:19.039
these modules that plug into it and are going to communicate via um a

01:00:16.799 --> 01:00:21.240
standardized interface so that whatever type of module you're plugging in

01:00:20.119 --> 01:00:27.359
they'll all be able to communicate with each other and they'll all be able to communicate ultimately with you here's a

01:00:25.440 --> 01:00:34.319
smaller one here's some just random modules well I mean this is the state

01:00:29.359 --> 01:00:37.440
it's in now um so we're not there yet

01:00:34.319 --> 01:00:40.640
but but they'll be shipping the second

01:00:37.440 --> 01:00:44.000
round of Hardware sometime in the fall I

01:00:40.640 --> 01:00:45.799
believe yes first round is in first

01:00:44.000 --> 01:00:49.359
round is soon and then second Hardware release with multiple application

01:00:47.160 --> 01:00:54.119
processors will be in the fall right now it's not even close to ready so this is

01:00:51.559 --> 01:00:58.680
very much like plug things in and see if they work stage but it shows that they

01:00:56.960 --> 01:01:04.599
are still working on the project they are still serious about this and I mean

01:01:01.880 --> 01:01:08.160
okay initially what I said about this was it's not going to make sense for

01:01:05.799 --> 01:01:14.839
anything but the low end by the time it actually sees the

01:01:11.359 --> 01:01:16.039
light of day I might be totally wrong

01:01:14.839 --> 01:01:20.119
because we're getting to the point where like the spec bumps don't feel them as

01:01:18.280 --> 01:01:23.960
much we're getting to the point where we can continue to miniaturize things but a

01:01:21.960 --> 01:01:27.359
phone is largely fast enough for most of the things you're going want to do with

01:01:24.960 --> 01:01:30.880
it today which I mean if we're talking about walking around with a phone in 3D

01:01:29.000 --> 01:01:34.039
mapping an environment yeah and stuff like gaming is always going to get

01:01:32.119 --> 01:01:37.079
harder but when when you talk about it's fast enough to do things you want to do

01:01:35.119 --> 01:01:43.280
today a lot of people when you reference that is calling texting um very basic

01:01:41.119 --> 01:01:47.760
kind of text applications and photo applications like Facebook um Twitter

01:01:45.960 --> 01:01:53.359
Instagram that kind of stuff so when I said basic I I think I had the wrong

01:01:50.880 --> 01:01:58.240
Concept in my mind I was thinking basic today basic

01:01:55.480 --> 01:02:03.880
whereas basic by then will probably be this basic high-end today basic and so

01:02:02.200 --> 01:02:08.640
I'm I'm a lot more excited about it especially if we see Technologies like

01:02:05.799 --> 01:02:12.720
um that uh that second that however many seconds it was they could charge a

01:02:09.960 --> 01:02:16.000
Galaxy S4 like if we see improvements in charging technology improvements in

01:02:14.039 --> 01:02:21.039
Battery Technology to the point where you can make something that isn't that

01:02:17.880 --> 01:02:22.880
bulky and really is legitimately modular

01:02:21.039 --> 01:02:27.039
that isn't so slow that it's only usable for basic calling and texting fun

01:02:25.440 --> 01:02:30.799
I'm a lot more excited about it now than I was before so right now it's running

01:02:29.200 --> 01:02:35.520
on a fork of Android like it doesn't even run on regular Android because they

01:02:33.119 --> 01:02:39.799
had to Frankenstein it to allow hot swapping of components I mean that's the

01:02:37.760 --> 01:02:44.000
kind of thing guys your phone freaks out if you unplug a Micro SD card

01:02:42.200 --> 01:02:49.400
unexpectedly it's like yo dog please don't do that um whereas if we're

01:02:46.640 --> 01:02:53.319
talking about unplugging your camera I mean the amount of app dependencies on

01:02:51.920 --> 01:02:57.079
any piece of Hardware like a camera I mean you install any app it goes this

01:02:55.160 --> 01:03:01.279
app has access to this this this this this this this you start pulling out

01:02:58.160 --> 01:03:02.240
your GPS module in the middle of right

01:03:01.279 --> 01:03:05.960
it's going to be like there's a lot of stuff that needs

01:03:04.559 --> 01:03:11.680
to be figured out before this really happens but I'm a lot more excited about it than I was before speaking of things

01:03:09.599 --> 01:03:18.440
that are designed to generate hype Sony and Microsoft are talking about Early

01:03:14.599 --> 01:03:21.839
Access game sales on consoles now

01:03:18.440 --> 01:03:23.920
neither of them is announcing that

01:03:21.839 --> 01:03:27.640
they're doing it now that's not what's happening right now what they've

01:03:25.279 --> 01:03:32.839
basically said is look we're having serious internal discussions about this

01:03:30.160 --> 01:03:38.599
we've seen what a big deal this has been on the PC with steam allowing games to

01:03:36.359 --> 01:03:43.880
allow early allow players to pay for early access to them but I think they

01:03:41.760 --> 01:03:50.000
recognize like hopefully everyone recognizes that there are still some

01:03:45.440 --> 01:03:53.160
serious problems with this model

01:03:50.000 --> 01:03:56.559
so the benefits are obvious I guess the

01:03:53.160 --> 01:03:59.520
developer gets feedback back I mean even

01:03:56.559 --> 01:04:03.240
EA is recognizing the benefits okay hold on let's one step back you look at Star

01:04:01.200 --> 01:04:07.079
Citizen where they're being extremely open about the development process

01:04:05.160 --> 01:04:12.079
here's the like roadblock we're stuck with right now here's the Milestone that

01:04:10.240 --> 01:04:15.839
unfortunately we keep not hitting because we're actually sharing the

01:04:13.720 --> 01:04:20.440
internal targets with you guys instead of you know padding it the way that it

01:04:18.240 --> 01:04:25.079
game developer would normally do okay so there's there's that completely like

01:04:22.319 --> 01:04:29.279
crowdfunded project and then crowd interactive development process then

01:04:27.480 --> 01:04:32.559
there's the next step there's what EA finally has opened their eyes to what

01:04:31.160 --> 01:04:37.640
they did with the Battlefield Hardline Beta where they went okay we want people

01:04:35.160 --> 01:04:44.279
to play this game we want to know that it works properly before we ask for

01:04:40.440 --> 01:04:47.480
people's money then there's what then

01:04:44.279 --> 01:04:49.200
there's Early Access and so the benefits

01:04:47.480 --> 01:04:54.240
of developers getting feedback before they release a game are great especially

01:04:51.319 --> 01:04:57.520
especially on the PC where so many gamebreaking buttons can have to do with

01:04:55.760 --> 01:05:02.520
obscure Hardware configurations but the problem is asking

01:04:59.960 --> 01:05:09.440
for people to pay for beta software paying for Early Access is a

01:05:06.359 --> 01:05:10.960
big problem to me it used to be so cool

01:05:09.440 --> 01:05:16.559
yes like I used to like when when you had to sign up for a beta it was like this huge resume process and one of the

01:05:15.039 --> 01:05:21.119
sections which was always extremely important was what games have you done

01:05:18.799 --> 01:05:23.839
betas for before yeah and like how engaged are you in betas and like all

01:05:22.680 --> 01:05:30.720
this kind of stuff and it was a big deal and if you got into a beta for something like it was a it was cool you know like

01:05:29.039 --> 01:05:34.319
you were a cool dude yeah and people were like oh holy crap you've baed for

01:05:32.359 --> 01:05:37.319
all these different games and it's like yeah yeah and you you learn like how to

01:05:36.039 --> 01:05:41.480
test things and it was actually kind of interesting there was one point in time

01:05:39.240 --> 01:05:44.599
where beta testing games could have gone on a

01:05:42.480 --> 01:05:48.319
resume right like the fact that you were accepted into all these different betas

01:05:46.000 --> 01:05:55.200
could could have gone on a resume now you buy into it like

01:05:52.319 --> 01:06:00.079
what what what what what what we we took that hype of like yeah I got into a beta

01:05:57.760 --> 01:06:04.480
this is super cool and turned it into it's just generally cool to be into

01:06:02.799 --> 01:06:09.279
betas which made it so that betas weren't betas anymore which made it so

01:06:06.720 --> 01:06:13.160
that Gmail beta yeah Gmail with Minecraft Beta where things last forever

01:06:11.520 --> 01:06:16.640
and it makes no sense and then they started charging you for it and it

01:06:14.839 --> 01:06:20.480
devalues the beta word like it's it's taken the meaning out of the beta word

01:06:18.240 --> 01:06:25.240
beta used to mean it's not finished now beta seems to mean it's well it's mostly

01:06:23.279 --> 01:06:28.440
finished we're just not quite ready to call it finished we're we're getting

01:06:27.119 --> 01:06:34.079
we're done but we're getting your feedback and we're going to tweak things so that when we release it everyone sees

01:06:32.359 --> 01:06:39.200
it as being and the problem with that actually the problem with that with

01:06:35.960 --> 01:06:41.240
beta's working too well is it changes

01:06:39.200 --> 01:06:44.880
the the customers perception of what a beta is and it changes their

01:06:42.480 --> 01:06:49.839
expectations of what a beta is so all of a sudden they kind of expect a beta to

01:06:47.440 --> 01:06:54.039
be mostly there like a beta sure beta software Works no big deal I'll run beta

01:06:51.559 --> 01:06:57.880
software on my PC all day long and then then developers recognize this change in

01:06:56.240 --> 01:07:02.920
perception and go oh well why don't we just charge them for it then and I mean

01:07:00.720 --> 01:07:06.119
valve has warnings like look if you buy into Early Access you should buy it

01:07:04.640 --> 01:07:11.880
because you're really excited about the title or something I forget the wording exactly but they basically go look they

01:07:09.440 --> 01:07:17.039
might not ever get finished but why is that acceptable yeah and I mean okay

01:07:14.760 --> 01:07:19.640
okay okay why is it acceptable yeah but then the the flip side of that is is it

01:07:18.520 --> 01:07:24.839
really any different from what we have today where the development process is

01:07:21.960 --> 01:07:30.160
mostly closed they released the game and you pay for it and it wasn't done so

01:07:28.240 --> 01:07:33.240
basically we're just giving them our money at the same point in the

01:07:31.799 --> 01:07:37.160
development cycle we're just calling it something different that that's why I

01:07:35.079 --> 01:07:39.960
often don't buy release games anymore I used to be all about buying release

01:07:38.520 --> 01:07:44.000
games and pre-ordering stuff I know that sounds weird but honestly at one point

01:07:41.839 --> 01:07:49.680
in time that was fine we need to do a shirt that's like I paid for this and

01:07:46.640 --> 01:07:52.079
then this just needs to like Trail off

01:07:49.680 --> 01:07:55.200
that's actually not a bad yeah okay guys let us know maybe we'll do another

01:07:53.279 --> 01:08:03.599
Teespring C campaign instead of throwing up on buy like the the oh you could oh

01:07:59.960 --> 01:08:05.960
what if you did like a release and I I

01:08:03.599 --> 01:08:11.319
paid for this and have part at the end a different color and then have like an

01:08:07.760 --> 01:08:11.319
index and have it be like release and

01:08:12.119 --> 01:08:17.279
DLC yeah we got we got to come up with something let us know in twitch chat if

01:08:15.480 --> 01:08:20.960
you need us to do a if you need us to do a beta shirt because I think that would

01:08:19.000 --> 01:08:25.839
be pretty freaking awesome I funded this beta I funded this beta

01:08:27.199 --> 01:08:36.480
so said Luke's shirts are getting smaller and smaller no this shirt has just consistently been small

01:08:32.679 --> 01:08:37.719
yeah cuz you're bigger than well you've

01:08:36.480 --> 01:08:41.400
been kind of getting kind of jacked lately so there's that um okay I don't

01:08:40.239 --> 01:08:47.960
think there's anything else I had to say on the beta thing I think the punchline was what it was it was is anything

01:08:45.400 --> 01:08:51.600
really changing if we just get people to pay for Betas no not really nope cuz

01:08:50.120 --> 01:08:54.480
it's going to be broken or it's going to be broken speaking of things never

01:08:53.359 --> 01:08:59.799
changing it's like the isps want us to keep

01:08:56.960 --> 01:09:05.839
having negative things to say about them this is brutal it's on the register guys

01:09:02.799 --> 01:09:07.759
you have to listen to this at some point

01:09:05.839 --> 01:09:12.359
you know what's the funny thing about it is Comcast is backpedaling and saying oh

01:09:10.159 --> 01:09:16.239
we're very upset that the customer was treated in this manner this is a

01:09:14.040 --> 01:09:20.759
recording of about an 8 minute customer support call where someone tried to call

01:09:18.480 --> 01:09:24.000
in and cancel their service and they're like oh we're really embarrassed about

01:09:22.239 --> 01:09:30.440
this they've said nothing about discipl the employee because as listening to the

01:09:27.279 --> 01:09:33.560
recording I am sure the employee was

01:09:30.440 --> 01:09:34.759
100% doing everything right they were

01:09:33.560 --> 01:09:38.960
probably instructed to work that way they were probably instructed to work in

01:09:36.640 --> 01:09:42.520
exactly this way because the employee doesn't tell the customer he doesn't

01:09:41.120 --> 01:09:48.359
call the customer an or something like the employee is polite

01:09:46.520 --> 01:09:52.560
sort of throughout the whole thing other than talking over the customer and

01:09:50.600 --> 01:09:57.440
repetitively asking the same stupid questions like like well you know if our

01:09:55.760 --> 01:10:02.320
if our service is superior and faster are you saying that you'd like to have an inferior service and then when the

01:10:00.760 --> 01:10:05.840
guy just tries to say like no I just want to cancel the service I don't have

01:10:04.120 --> 01:10:09.120
to answer this question well what so then you're saying you want an inferior

01:10:07.280 --> 01:10:13.280
service our competitor can't give you what we give you and he kind of goes

01:10:10.719 --> 01:10:17.560
okay sure I want an inferior service and and and the customer service the CSR is

01:10:15.480 --> 01:10:22.520
like oh well why would you want an inferior service I mean look listen to

01:10:19.440 --> 01:10:24.719
what you're saying like like you know

01:10:22.520 --> 01:10:30.120
please and thank you are all in there but talking over the customer in this

01:10:26.640 --> 01:10:32.760
disrespectful manner is not cool no but

01:10:30.120 --> 01:10:37.080
that's I'm certain what they were instructed to do I don't like RPS but I

01:10:35.480 --> 01:10:40.800
don't think it would have been that bad they'll push you yeah I've cancel

01:10:38.679 --> 01:10:44.040
service with RPS in our Telos it's nothing like that no no they'll push you

01:10:42.640 --> 01:10:49.640
they'll ask you why but if you're like just I just I just don't want it I just don't want it they'll be like oh okay

01:10:47.679 --> 01:10:53.120
really aggressive and they'll cancel it and just the like one of the highest

01:10:51.320 --> 01:10:57.880
pressure sales techniques that I've ever encountered

01:10:54.400 --> 01:11:00.040
and uh yeah so like Shaw okay Shaw

01:10:57.880 --> 01:11:04.400
called me yeah cuz I used to have Shaw and then where I'm living now I the

01:11:02.120 --> 01:11:08.800
landlord has internet already so they're like oh you cancel a cha was there like

01:11:07.159 --> 01:11:11.760
a reason do you not like it do you have too many outages like what why did you

01:11:10.280 --> 01:11:15.199
cancel Shaw I was like oh I moved somewhere and they have it already like

01:11:13.960 --> 01:11:20.520
oh so you don't want it anymore I was like well I moved somewhere and I have it already I have it already like it I'm

01:11:18.840 --> 01:11:23.360
using it I'm just not paying for it because the the person that owns the

01:11:22.360 --> 01:11:28.320
building is already paying for it they're like oh okay hopefully you use

01:11:25.920 --> 01:11:31.920
this in the future I was like yep okay bye like it was really not a big deal

01:11:30.440 --> 01:11:35.440
they didn't try to push and be like no you have to like get your own blah blah

01:11:33.480 --> 01:11:41.080
blah blah blah which I don't know but whatever it it felt just like the worst

01:11:39.280 --> 01:11:46.360
thing about you know trying to shop for a car or trying to shop for insurance or

01:11:44.679 --> 01:11:52.199
like those kinds of things it felt like I had a Primerica presentation in my

01:11:48.960 --> 01:11:55.159
kitchen when I was listening to this

01:11:52.199 --> 01:12:02.159
thing that's which I did recently long story why they were there but I I I'll

01:11:58.120 --> 01:12:03.520
have to tell you offline cuz yeah OU

01:12:02.159 --> 01:12:07.320
yeah it was really annoying I've lost a couple friends to that yeah not like I I

01:12:06.400 --> 01:12:13.159
went to a presentation I've gone to one as well but I got tricked into going to one no I

01:12:11.360 --> 01:12:16.719
knew where I was going I didn't I had no idea I was uh I had a weird idea that it

01:12:15.560 --> 01:12:21.400
might have been something to do with that but I had no idea yeah I was fresh out of high school and someone was like

01:12:19.800 --> 01:12:26.760
blah blah blah you know there's this thing and fresh out of high school sounds right I hadn't got I hadn't

01:12:24.080 --> 01:12:30.560
caught on to the whole if they won't if they refuse to tell you what you're

01:12:28.159 --> 01:12:34.239
selling then you probably shouldn't be selling it yet so they were just like no

01:12:33.159 --> 01:12:40.080
no no we can't tell you anything you have to just come with the presentation so I kind of sat through the presentation I kind of went okay it's

01:12:37.880 --> 01:12:43.880
PID scheme and then that was about the end of that I got my I I contacted a

01:12:42.719 --> 01:12:48.600
friend that I hadn't talked to since high school and I was like we should hang out sometime and they're like yeah

01:12:46.800 --> 01:12:52.120
you should come to like my work we're having a a work thing and we're allowed

01:12:50.520 --> 01:12:55.679
to bring plus ones we're we're encouraged to bring plus ones like it's

01:12:54.239 --> 01:13:00.760
it's good I should be bringing people I'm like okay sure and then day up they're

01:12:59.280 --> 01:13:05.239
like oh yeah like wear something nice like it's fairly fairly formal I was

01:13:02.760 --> 01:13:09.920
like okay so that's when I had that like one red and black suit you remember that

01:13:07.120 --> 01:13:13.560
so I put that on which is like super way over the top oh yeah like way over the

01:13:11.920 --> 01:13:18.000
top because it's the only thing I have and I show up and like I'm Miss they've

01:13:15.600 --> 01:13:21.480
they haven't told me what they do I just and I've asked them multiple times what

01:13:19.400 --> 01:13:25.080
it's about all this kind of stuff and I I show up and then I'm like oh this is

01:13:23.159 --> 01:13:29.840
your work this is weird it's in like a storage unit

01:13:27.520 --> 01:13:36.120
complex this is really odd which ironically isn't as bad as your old

01:13:32.800 --> 01:13:39.840
office in my house

01:13:36.120 --> 01:13:41.639
Gage um but yeah and then I sit down and

01:13:39.840 --> 01:13:45.520
I realized that it's not like just some work the there's there's the reception

01:13:43.800 --> 01:13:50.360
desk and then there's the like presentation room there's no working

01:13:47.719 --> 01:13:56.840
area and I'm like oh God I'll just sit through this and then go home yeah yeah

01:13:53.880 --> 01:14:02.120
um okay so SanDisk apparently is reporting that their SSD sales have

01:13:59.120 --> 01:14:03.360
soared um that in that alone isn't

01:14:02.120 --> 01:14:09.480
really that newsworthy there's an article on the register so bloop bloop

01:14:05.800 --> 01:14:10.800
there's the one um that to me is is the

01:14:09.480 --> 01:14:15.199
huge thing about it but what is interesting to me about it is the way

01:14:13.360 --> 01:14:19.719
that we're finally seeing capacities take another jump SanDisk is talking

01:14:17.199 --> 01:14:24.960
about 4 terabyte and 2 terabyte like terabyte class multi-terabyte class ssds

01:14:22.920 --> 01:14:30.040
that might be very very expensive right now but prices are continuing to fall

01:14:27.360 --> 01:14:33.440
they're talking about how their volumes are increasing so their actual revenues

01:14:31.840 --> 01:14:37.520
are up even though profits are not really sort of increasing in the same

01:14:35.520 --> 01:14:41.520
manner so we're seeing it become commod sized we're seeing it become more

01:14:39.360 --> 01:14:47.639
affordable so that's the whole point of this is it's getting more affordable

01:14:43.840 --> 01:14:49.040
it's really really exciting ssds are the

01:14:47.639 --> 01:14:54.280
maybe they're not the future but they're at least the immediate sort of

01:14:51.920 --> 01:14:57.920
transitional phase between hard drives and whatever the future ends up being

01:14:56.320 --> 01:15:04.600
and that's pretty much all that I have to say about that next big oh this is

01:15:01.280 --> 01:15:07.400
this is this really sucks oh Microsoft

01:15:04.600 --> 01:15:14.159
cutting or cut 18,000 jobs which is

01:15:10.360 --> 01:15:15.920
14% of their Global Workforce holy crap

01:15:14.159 --> 01:15:18.159
I mean that's basically like me cutting one

01:15:18.760 --> 01:15:26.199
employee no not to make light of the situation that is absolutely in I mean I

01:15:24.600 --> 01:15:29.880
understand so this was originally posted on the for by jle and the original

01:15:28.400 --> 01:15:38.280
articles from the BBC there's a number of sources on it I understand um you

01:15:33.400 --> 01:15:40.960
know right sizing or streamlining or or

01:15:38.280 --> 01:15:45.040
whatever the case may be but I just find it interesting that they kind of

01:15:42.679 --> 01:15:48.480
shoveled a whole bunch of it under the Nokia thing so they're like yeah we're

01:15:47.480 --> 01:15:54.560
getting rid of people because of the Nokia merger actually a lot of other

01:15:50.920 --> 01:15:56.639
people as well yeah so I I guess that's

01:15:54.560 --> 01:16:01.960
really that's really all there is to say about it so they um they're kind it's

01:15:59.000 --> 01:16:05.600
18,000 over the next year uh so it's not all like everyone's job is gone today

01:16:04.320 --> 01:16:10.480
the mass majority of it is going to be over the next six months though but it's one of those things where it's easy for

01:16:08.760 --> 01:16:14.120
us to kind of see these kinds of job cuts and go oh okay well you know they

01:16:12.880 --> 01:16:21.000
they did this or they did that but it's a lot harder to look at it and go okay well someone we know and like and

01:16:17.280 --> 01:16:23.120
respect uh lost their job so uh Barnacle

01:16:21.000 --> 01:16:26.880
is one of our fellow YouTubers this was posted by The Double Y gamer on the

01:16:24.600 --> 01:16:32.560
Forum just a series of tweets from him kind of going holy cow I got blindsided

01:16:30.199 --> 01:16:37.199
by this um didn't expect this at all but Barnacles was one of the one of the

01:16:35.280 --> 01:16:41.679
casualties in Microsoft cutting all these jobs so you should definitely

01:16:38.960 --> 01:16:45.960
check him out on YouTube Barnacles one numerical one on YouTube or if you just

01:16:44.280 --> 01:16:51.480
search for Barnacles that should be a secondary account then Barnacle

01:16:47.719 --> 01:16:52.719
numerical one numerical one no if you

01:16:51.480 --> 01:16:57.760
had a secondary account it should be Barn too n that's stupid that's the

01:16:55.719 --> 01:17:02.440
stupidest thing you've said today stupidest isn't even a word which some

01:17:00.400 --> 01:17:05.239
people will go no the person calling something the stupidest thing ever is

01:17:03.920 --> 01:17:10.400
stupid because they're using not even a word but actually I'm saying it very

01:17:07.679 --> 01:17:16.239
intentionally to emphasize how stupid it is it's so stupid it shouldn't even be

01:17:12.040 --> 01:17:19.080
real there done that was very well put

01:17:16.239 --> 01:17:24.000
uh the millennium bug returns so this is this is pretty funny I can't believe

01:17:21.520 --> 01:17:28.880
this posted on the Forum by but this is this is great theel service

01:17:26.960 --> 01:17:35.199
system mistaken s notices to more than 14,000 psyl men born between 1893 and

01:17:32.880 --> 01:17:38.840
1897 ordering them to register for the nation's military draft and warning that

01:17:37.239 --> 01:17:47.679
a failure to do so is punishable by a fine and imprisonment what they actually

01:17:41.480 --> 01:17:50.719
meant was uh 1993 to 1997 so uh y 2K

01:17:47.679 --> 01:17:53.159
strikes again oh like I can't even

01:17:50.719 --> 01:17:56.199
believe I love how they're like yeah the they accepted that it was wrong and they

01:17:54.840 --> 01:18:00.000
just told people just to ignore it if it shows up I'm like that's actually going

01:17:58.080 --> 01:18:06.040
to be possibly traumatic for certain people yeah I would think so yeah like

01:18:01.880 --> 01:18:09.280
that's going to be not good at

01:18:06.040 --> 01:18:11.280
all cuz I I wouldn't even be surprised

01:18:09.280 --> 01:18:17.320
if there's people in that group that possibly passed away in

01:18:13.679 --> 01:18:18.800
Duty that are now getting drafted yeah I

01:18:17.320 --> 01:18:22.560
mean it's it's and like their spouses might still be alive or something it's

01:18:20.800 --> 01:18:27.560
super not cool I mean the error occurred because the state uses a twood digigit

01:18:24.159 --> 01:18:29.920
code to indicate um to indicate the date

01:18:27.560 --> 01:18:34.159
and digital systems go back far enough that those people were alive when this

01:18:32.199 --> 01:18:39.639
code was implemented like all this stuff I I I still I don't understand I I still

01:18:36.600 --> 01:18:41.480
see stuff that uses two-digit date codes

01:18:39.639 --> 01:18:46.159
and it's like haven't we figured out that this is a problem yet we all just

01:18:42.840 --> 01:18:48.760
need to stop doing this use real dates

01:18:46.159 --> 01:18:53.080
we have really big storage now it's okay it's fine the extra two characters take

01:18:51.239 --> 01:18:58.880
the two more characters probably fine it'll be okay speaking of two characters

01:18:55.639 --> 01:19:02.400
the last of us have remastered on the

01:18:58.880 --> 01:19:06.040
PS4 is going to allow you to lock the

01:19:02.400 --> 01:19:09.360
frame rate at 30fps now to be clear by

01:19:06.040 --> 01:19:13.280
default it will run at 1080 60p and I am

01:19:09.360 --> 01:19:16.440
definitely a huge advocate for consoles

01:19:13.280 --> 01:19:18.440
giving the user the option to control

01:19:16.440 --> 01:19:23.239
the graphical Fidelity settings so that they can choose whether they want you

01:19:21.120 --> 01:19:26.960
know more particles to kick around on the floor or whether they prefer to run

01:19:24.960 --> 01:19:31.840
at a more consistent frame rate or at a higher resolution or whatever else the

01:19:28.760 --> 01:19:33.960
case may be but the one concern that

01:19:31.840 --> 01:19:39.239
this brings up so this was posted by dri W in the Forum the one concern that this

01:19:36.760 --> 01:19:45.199
raises for me is if you're at

01:19:42.080 --> 01:19:46.159
60fps and they're acknowledging that and

01:19:45.199 --> 01:19:53.040
they're there they're giving you the option to lock at 30fps because there is no cinematic gameplay reason to play a

01:19:50.920 --> 01:19:56.800
game at 30 FPS there that put put that out of your mind if they're giving us

01:19:54.560 --> 01:20:00.239
that option are they basically saying well it could be dipping below 60 FPS

01:19:58.880 --> 01:20:07.360
often enough that it might bother some people to the point where they'd rather play at a lower frame rate I I rebuttal

01:20:04.760 --> 01:20:10.400
this a little bit um by saying that the one of the lead developers was talking

01:20:08.960 --> 01:20:14.480
about how amazing it was to play it in 60 FPS so I I don't really think it's

01:20:13.040 --> 01:20:20.080
going to be that big of an issue it could be but then I've always been one of those deat tastic people who

01:20:17.520 --> 01:20:23.880
basically dials in my graphic settings based on worst case scenario yep and and

01:20:22.480 --> 01:20:27.679
people people will often make this argument well you don't need to run your

01:20:25.480 --> 01:20:31.080
game at 95 frames per second because your monitor only Sports 60 frames per

01:20:29.000 --> 01:20:37.600
second that's not really the point the point is those times when it dips are

01:20:35.400 --> 01:20:41.800
usually the times when a bunch of dudes jump out at you that's how it works when

01:20:40.199 --> 01:20:45.080
there's more objects on screen that's when your frame rate dips so that's why

01:20:43.320 --> 01:20:52.120
it's important to run at an average frame rate of 100 FPS so that when

01:20:48.280 --> 01:20:53.639
gets real not and everything runs at 60

01:20:52.120 --> 01:20:56.600
even though like never dips below so that's that's why in Star seon when

01:20:55.199 --> 01:21:00.560
you're staring at the floor you can get like 150 and if you look up in a deluxe

01:20:58.960 --> 01:21:06.080
hanger that has a bot ton of ships in it you can go down to like 10 or 15 like it

01:21:04.560 --> 01:21:10.040
can be a lot harder to run different parts of different games and g-sync will

01:21:07.719 --> 01:21:14.960
alleviate this quite a lot more than I expected 40 FPS looks pretty good on a

01:21:13.560 --> 01:21:19.000
g-sync monitor when you're not dealing with any stuttering or tearing yeah but

01:21:17.400 --> 01:21:23.520
well maybe 4 yeah 40 might be a little bit on the low side 45 looked pretty

01:21:20.600 --> 01:21:27.000
good though so it's still yeah yeah it's interesting and then

01:21:27.239 --> 01:21:33.280
the yeah let's not what just no carries

01:21:31.360 --> 01:21:36.880
and did you we rejected the Tesla Model 3 that's exciting we talked about it

01:21:35.040 --> 01:21:41.280
last week oh did we yeah yeah but we called it the model e oh so we can talk

01:21:39.360 --> 01:21:48.440
about that yeah so we can talk about how Elon Musk is like so yeah Ford like um

01:21:45.520 --> 01:21:53.719
ruined our whole plan to have the sex lineup of cars with the model S the

01:21:50.880 --> 01:21:58.360
model e and the model X by threatening a lawsuit over the model e naming or

01:21:55.760 --> 01:22:02.360
something so we're calling it The Three so is like close enough he so funny I

01:22:00.520 --> 01:22:09.280
think he found some way to still make it work or something or was it yeah the S

01:22:05.320 --> 01:22:12.679
S3 which is three eyes and then an

01:22:09.280 --> 01:22:15.719
X yeah I don't know what a funny guy I

01:22:12.679 --> 01:22:17.560
mean who does that cuz you you can't

01:22:15.719 --> 01:22:20.560
someone that smart who's paying that much attention to everything there's no

01:22:19.480 --> 01:22:24.920
way he didn't know that the letters weren't going to spell sex mhm

01:22:23.159 --> 01:22:30.239
awesome guaranteed I love it I think he's hilarious me too I like musk a lot

01:22:28.440 --> 01:22:33.920
he's kind of awesome I think that's pretty much it from my side there's

01:22:32.120 --> 01:22:37.679
other stuff but it's just yeah I don't know none of it seems that exciting

01:22:38.080 --> 01:22:45.040
so totally not great totally not a Dr

01:22:41.280 --> 01:22:48.360
for the laptop oh that's okay the laptop

01:22:45.040 --> 01:22:51.560
that's like trying really hard to keep

01:22:48.360 --> 01:22:54.199
itself alive I may replace this laptop

01:22:51.560 --> 01:22:57.480
with what 4 gig of RAM isn't enough and you can't upgrade I might just get a new

01:22:55.760 --> 01:23:04.840
no no solder on I might just get a new Gen X ps12 speaking about solder on what

01:23:01.840 --> 01:23:07.040
no nothing soldered onto that laptop no

01:23:04.840 --> 01:23:11.600
I didn't mean that I meant the the blade the blade that's why oh that's why I'm

01:23:09.639 --> 01:23:14.679
no I already shipped the blade back yeah I was tempted to just not ship it back

01:23:13.440 --> 01:23:19.920
and just be like what are you going to do what are they going to do stop seing

01:23:17.080 --> 01:23:23.719
me like review samples no what they could have done was they could have

01:23:20.920 --> 01:23:29.040
turned that into like an advertising C it's like our laptop is so good that

01:23:26.719 --> 01:23:32.679
this guy won't send it back but but if they publicized what I did then they'd

01:23:31.159 --> 01:23:36.880
be opening up the floodgates for other reviewers to just not send things back

01:23:35.320 --> 01:23:42.440
back yeah or also saying they could send like the razor SWAT

01:23:39.159 --> 01:23:44.440
crew not real SWAT could show up with

01:23:42.440 --> 01:23:49.159
like water guns that would and raid the house that would actually be kind of

01:23:46.800 --> 01:23:55.639
hilarious except it could cause real problems because like yeah I yeah that

01:23:53.040 --> 01:24:00.199
would that would I mean fake swatting is never funny even if they're armed with

01:23:57.480 --> 01:24:03.960
water guns so I would definitely see if you call the head like if if they called

01:24:02.239 --> 01:24:07.679
the head and like informed the police and like it was set up and we probably

01:24:05.600 --> 01:24:10.199
knew they would have to inform us they would it would basically a whole thing

01:24:09.040 --> 01:24:15.920
would just have to be completely everyone would have to know it would have to be like realistic looking SWAT

01:24:14.120 --> 01:24:21.760
uniforms with like bright yellow and orange water guns so everyone knows it's

01:24:18.920 --> 01:24:26.080
fake yeah but then you're it's not even that funny any okay anyway so speaking

01:24:24.159 --> 01:24:33.239
of things that aren't that funny anymore making you guys wait any longer for the

01:24:28.040 --> 01:24:35.800
drawing of the signed Rog G550 JK gaming

01:24:33.239 --> 01:24:42.080
notebook so it's signed by all the Highlander video personalities that were

01:24:37.560 --> 01:24:44.920
the tops of me Logan Kane Luke um Austin

01:24:42.080 --> 01:24:50.960
Paul and Kyle all signed the bottom of this unit and it can be yours so we are

01:24:48.639 --> 01:24:55.520
going to draw it live random.org so we have 6111 pages

01:24:53.320 --> 01:25:00.119
will oh okay whatever we draw live here guys if we find that your entry wasn't

01:24:58.239 --> 01:25:03.960
valid so we go back and make sure that your entry was valid I'll be inspecting

01:25:01.960 --> 01:25:07.400
accounts I'll be inspecting he'll be digging don't tell them what you're inspecting because we don't want them to

01:25:06.119 --> 01:25:13.480
know what we're looking for tell them how oh okay basically we have a process

01:25:11.040 --> 01:25:17.520
you won't get away with it so uh we may do a redraw stay tuned on Twitter if the

01:25:15.639 --> 01:25:23.159
original winner ends up not being valid but here we go guys drum roll so the way

01:25:19.719 --> 01:25:27.080
that we do it is first we draw a random

01:25:23.159 --> 01:25:29.639
page on random.org then we draw a random

01:25:27.080 --> 01:25:35.520
poster on said random page so it's I think it's 20 post per page yep 20 posts

01:25:32.320 --> 01:25:39.719
per page here we

01:25:35.520 --> 01:25:41.199
go page 341 up give give everyone like a

01:25:39.719 --> 01:25:46.080
little bit of time so they can figure out if they're on page 341 sure so we

01:25:43.560 --> 01:25:50.320
can make everyone super anxious okay I'm just terrorizing everybody right now

01:25:48.080 --> 01:25:57.880
okay all right we will do that okay so it could be Tony Tang 66 pinnon fery

01:25:54.159 --> 01:25:59.719

01:27:47.040 --> 01:27:52.280
YouTube viewers we are using the Forum

01:27:50.600 --> 01:28:00.000
as a mechanism for hosting the the giveaway someone who has one post on the

01:27:55.360 --> 01:28:01.960
Forum could be a longtime loyal viewer

01:28:00.000 --> 01:28:07.199
of our videos even a big commenter on the YouTube instead of on Facebook yeah

01:28:04.560 --> 01:28:10.719
so just because they don't post a lot on lists.com doesn't mean they're not a

01:28:08.840 --> 01:28:14.400
member of our community so let's try not to be all butur about that and if

01:28:13.040 --> 01:28:18.000
they're not logging on to the community that much you have a higher chance that they won't answer the PM and that

01:28:16.719 --> 01:28:22.239
there's going to be a redraw that's right so we did think of this all right

01:28:20.679 --> 01:28:25.240
