WEBVTT 00:00:01.959 --> 00:00:06.319 hello my friends yes it has not been a 00:00:05.080 --> 00:00:12.679 very good day today nope no I have I have not had a 00:00:09.559 --> 00:00:16.720 particularly good day we late um cuz 00:00:12.679 --> 00:00:19.359 we're late yes that's a factor oh yeah 00:00:16.720 --> 00:00:24.320 the other one but also the bit where Amazon terminated our affiliate account 00:00:21.960 --> 00:00:28.519 yeah that that also had something to do with it so uh uh you know what I'm not 00:00:27.080 --> 00:00:35.040 going to spend a lot of time talking about that on the show today I'll just do a quick thing right now basically we 00:00:33.320 --> 00:00:40.600 violated the terms of service there were a couple of things that I didn't realize 00:00:37.200 --> 00:00:43.879 were I interpreted incorrectly and in a 00:00:40.600 --> 00:00:46.280 nutshell Amazon laid the smackdown on 00:00:43.879 --> 00:00:50.920 that and has permanently banned our account well not permanently but they 00:00:48.399 --> 00:00:58.879 have banned our account until such time as all of the videos that reference 00:00:54.760 --> 00:01:01.440 Amazon and um creating a bookmark to 00:00:58.879 --> 00:01:05.640 their site with that part I don't say that so none of my videos have to go 00:01:02.920 --> 00:01:09.840 away sure well whatever yeah all of the videos victory that contain that 00:01:07.960 --> 00:01:14.799 reference that sounds fine then must be removed it's probably okay from the 00:01:11.240 --> 00:01:16.680 channel no big deal and uh then we can 00:01:14.799 --> 00:01:21.159 reapply I mean we still get to keep scrapyard Wars right not they will 00:01:18.439 --> 00:01:29.960 reinstate our account then we can reapply for an account I was like so 00:01:26.159 --> 00:01:31.520 basically no then all right so we're all 00:01:29.960 --> 00:01:35.840 already kind of scratching our heads going well gee I mean how much were we 00:01:33.320 --> 00:01:39.680 really making on Amazon Affiliates uh maybe we could call out something else 00:01:37.240 --> 00:01:43.439 at the end of the video or maybe we can I don't know maybe Amazon could talk to 00:01:42.040 --> 00:01:49.280 us and we could figure out some kind of a solution where hey how about we fix it moving forward and we you know get a new 00:01:47.040 --> 00:01:55.560 tracker link or something like that so stuff but uh nope nope nope that's dead 00:01:53.159 --> 00:01:59.360 so what's the funniest the greatest irony here actually that that I 00:01:57.799 --> 00:02:03.640 personally really appreciated I love irony I was telling this to Brandon the 00:02:01.280 --> 00:02:09.520 other day I was climbing a ladder um in the middle of our late night shoot irony 00:02:05.680 --> 00:02:11.599 ladder um no no no there uh no aluminum 00:02:09.520 --> 00:02:16.080 actually but very nice I like it good thinking thank you um so I was climbing 00:02:13.680 --> 00:02:21.920 a ladder and I was putting up the last sheet of paper on the two and 1 half 00:02:18.840 --> 00:02:25.440 story Windows with this ladder propped 00:02:21.920 --> 00:02:27.280 actually at just above the Midway point 00:02:25.440 --> 00:02:31.040 on something and actually not against anything on the top and I was like well 00:02:29.400 --> 00:02:35.200 if I'm going to die this is going to be the one and I would like for the last 00:02:33.480 --> 00:02:42.040 piece of paper to be the one that I die on because I appreciate irony I I I do I 00:02:40.280 --> 00:02:46.840 love irony if I'm going to die I'd like for it to be in an ironic way um so 00:02:44.400 --> 00:02:51.760 anyway if my Amazon affiliate account is going to be terminated I do appreciate 00:02:49.000 --> 00:02:55.640 that it's in an ironic way and uh already recorded coming out very soon is 00:02:54.000 --> 00:03:01.200 a video called how does lonus Media Group make money honest answers episode 00:02:58.480 --> 00:03:05.799 two uh much of which has been rendered completely 00:03:02.560 --> 00:03:09.440 invalid by the recent uh ruling of 00:03:05.799 --> 00:03:11.720 Amazon Associates Specialist Team who 00:03:09.440 --> 00:03:18.959 has decided that we no longer make money using Amazon Associates junko it's not 00:03:14.799 --> 00:03:20.720 pre-recorded so um there you have it I 00:03:18.959 --> 00:03:25.000 at least appreciate the irony of the situation you know if it all goes to 00:03:22.599 --> 00:03:30.680 hell we can just start Twitch streaming all the time Twitch streaming 00:03:27.840 --> 00:03:34.480 I've heard it's pretty good money we'll just create like a loose 00:03:32.040 --> 00:03:38.680 affiliation of twitch streamers no we we should just get like a actually we have 00:03:37.480 --> 00:03:41.920 the internet connection for it I actually don't really mind to this idea 00:03:40.480 --> 00:03:47.159 uh we should just get every piece of Hardware that like anyone releases and 00:03:44.439 --> 00:03:53.840 just hold it and then for the whole stream uh top donator just gets to pick 00:03:50.760 --> 00:03:55.959 what we build next and we just build the 00:03:53.840 --> 00:03:59.159 computer show them the computer benchmark whatever games they want to 00:03:57.239 --> 00:04:03.480 Benchmark and then the next top donator gets to pick our next build we build it 00:04:01.519 --> 00:04:08.200 we Benchmark it for them they can see what it looks like we can cable manage 00:04:05.319 --> 00:04:11.720 it all that sounds horrifyingly profitable we can cable manage it all we 00:04:10.519 --> 00:04:15.640 can Benchmark all the games that they would want to say they can go like okay 00:04:13.680 --> 00:04:18.400 I've got this build idea it's got all this Hardware in it from all these 00:04:17.040 --> 00:04:22.960 people with this case all that kind of stuff we can give them their thermals we can give them their power draw we can 00:04:21.600 --> 00:04:27.080 give them the performance in the games that they want to play and basically by 00:04:24.639 --> 00:04:31.720 donating like 50 bucks they would effectively get an unparalleled 00:04:31.960 --> 00:04:37.680 on the rig probably Savings in the proc 00:04:35.400 --> 00:04:42.680 it's actually kind of brilliant but Matthew TG brings up an excellent point 00:04:41.120 --> 00:04:45.560 you'd have to have a proper schedule to do Twitch streaming and actually show up 00:04:44.199 --> 00:04:52.639 on time rip yeah but like I mean my stream works 00:04:49.320 --> 00:04:54.320 every time so maybe if I'm managing I 00:04:52.639 --> 00:04:58.440 did replace the power supply in the Stream PC that's actually what I was 00:04:55.880 --> 00:05:02.160 doing before we started today because that the system hard locked 00:05:00.240 --> 00:05:06.800 uh right before we were supposed to go live today and I was just like you know 00:05:04.440 --> 00:05:11.160 what I have replaced every component in this system except the power supply 00:05:08.560 --> 00:05:19.199 which I assumed was fine cuz it's a be quiet! dark Power Pro 850 watt 80 plus 00:05:15.240 --> 00:05:21.639 titanium like it's a completely Overkill 00:05:19.199 --> 00:05:26.720 and actually excellent power supply and so I threw in some uh test bench one 00:05:23.919 --> 00:05:31.560 that is known good and the system hasn't been behaving strangely no it AB it 00:05:29.199 --> 00:05:35.720 notably feels better than I'm I'm not guaranteeing it good yet cuz I I think 00:05:33.520 --> 00:05:40.400 it's other specific things but I people are like I would watch the [ __ ] out of 00:05:37.960 --> 00:05:46.080 that yeah like in the twitch chat it slowly started to become like kind of a 00:05:42.560 --> 00:05:46.080 better idea as I went 00:05:46.880 --> 00:05:52.400 on oh no all right well at any rate uh 00:05:51.000 --> 00:05:56.960 we have some great topics for you guys today on the actual W show not the W 00:05:54.520 --> 00:06:04.240 show where we just build computers um Microsoft makes a bold move into he 00:05:59.639 --> 00:06:08.440 helping server the marijuana business ah 00:06:04.240 --> 00:06:10.599 yes ah yes yes it's a uh you know uh I 00:06:08.440 --> 00:06:15.120 was trying to make a they're stirring the 00:06:12.560 --> 00:06:19.880 pot I guess that's like causing controversy 00:06:17.639 --> 00:06:23.800 oh anyway but how does that relate just shut 00:06:20.960 --> 00:06:28.240 up OverWatch takes the number one say they're lighting the fire yeah yeah yeah 00:06:26.759 --> 00:06:32.639 yeah they're lighting the fire under their competitors who are not as 00:06:30.000 --> 00:06:37.840 Progressive they're uh I'm sure we could come up with other things they're uh 00:06:34.759 --> 00:06:39.639 they're um um n that's just straight up 00:06:37.840 --> 00:06:43.319 a reference that's that doesn't refer to anything else all right OverWatch takes 00:06:41.240 --> 00:06:50.240 the number one spot from League of Legends in Korean PC internet cafes AKA 00:06:48.160 --> 00:06:54.759 what are they called bangs PC bongs bongs I think it's bong I could totally 00:06:52.440 --> 00:06:58.520 be wrong Ms korean's not great either if it helps at 00:06:56.560 --> 00:07:02.400 allim um 00:07:00.479 --> 00:07:08.160 I don't know what that is I I believe it means thank you sir oh that's cool uh 00:07:05.039 --> 00:07:10.120 MSI and ASUS allegedly send VGA or video 00:07:08.160 --> 00:07:15.720 card review samples with higher clock speeds than retail with like custom have 00:07:12.120 --> 00:07:20.560 a stuff um well that's cool no wait uh 00:07:15.720 --> 00:07:24.840 now English yeah thank you huh there it 00:07:20.560 --> 00:07:28.160 is um and smaller like processor chips 00:07:24.840 --> 00:07:30.199 May rely on vacuum tube technology which 00:07:28.160 --> 00:07:34.240 is like the last thing I would have expected to be on the end of that 00:07:31.440 --> 00:07:40.759 sentence but sure Microsoft is weeding out the competition oh that's good um 00:07:38.280 --> 00:07:45.639 that one's good what else we got no no one's going to really really oh almost 00:07:43.919 --> 00:07:49.670 no one was after it there's just a whole lot of like # Vape Nation to which all I 00:07:48.159 --> 00:07:54.980 have to say is 00:07:58.440 --> 00:08:01.440 this 00:08:11.720 --> 00:08:19.479 who that's an unexpected sponsor we haven't talked about Discord in a while 00:08:16.360 --> 00:08:21.680 did Nick make this this splash page I 00:08:19.479 --> 00:08:24.479 don't know cuz this is what they're supposed to look 00:08:24.840 --> 00:08:31.000 like last time we talked about Discord it didn't go over very well people 00:08:28.440 --> 00:08:34.599 didn't like it so so Nick made the sponsor page is that 00:08:33.240 --> 00:08:37.320 is that what that has to do with I have no idea no no no I was just because you 00:08:36.240 --> 00:08:42.919 said we haven't talked about them in a while yeah last time we talked them about was made a cribs video that was 00:08:41.080 --> 00:08:46.640 your cribs video I think everyone thought it was a vape Nation video cuz 00:08:45.040 --> 00:08:53.080 apparently everyone's too young to remember cribs really so like all the I 00:08:49.560 --> 00:08:54.839 made one offand reference by spelling it 00:08:53.080 --> 00:08:59.200 the wrong way with my hands for Vape Nation as a joke everyone thought that 00:08:57.000 --> 00:09:02.600 was like supposed the whole point of the video really it was cribs it was not 00:09:01.519 --> 00:09:08.000 Vape Nation you know what the funny thing about that is is I'm too old to 00:09:04.800 --> 00:09:11.480 really know what Vape nation is whereas 00:09:08.000 --> 00:09:13.560 like cribs cribs is like yeah yeah I 00:09:11.480 --> 00:09:17.200 well I remember not watching it cuz it was super CRI yeah but like you knew 00:09:15.079 --> 00:09:23.200 what it was but everyone knew what it was everyone knew it's it's like it's 00:09:20.160 --> 00:09:25.920 like Gravedigger you know like even if 00:09:23.200 --> 00:09:30.240 you have no idea what a monster truck is the odds that you've 00:09:27.360 --> 00:09:34.160 encountered Gravedigger as some point is actually pretty good or like you know 00:09:32.279 --> 00:09:38.480 Michael Jordan it's like even if you don't care about basketball at all you 00:09:36.160 --> 00:09:42.760 know who that guy is it's like MTV Cribs if you don't care about bad reality 00:09:40.519 --> 00:09:48.720 television programming you probably still know what it is or Cam angles and 00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:54.399 there's so many references to cribs I think I literally said crib for one um 00:09:51.959 --> 00:09:59.000 the way like the way the way Burl filmed it was like awesome with like the crazy 00:09:57.120 --> 00:10:03.519 camera angles like the the pulling the camera in and out and like all this 00:10:00.600 --> 00:10:07.480 crazy stuff um he made sure that I said like the lingo that was set on there 00:10:04.920 --> 00:10:13.160 commonly like we got this installed B Legit watched cribs like is no he had he 00:10:10.800 --> 00:10:16.519 had filmed his friend doing a spoof of it or something ah so his friend had 00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:23.399 done a bunch of research and stuff so we were effectively doing a spoof of a spoof yeah like 10 years late yep and 00:10:21.760 --> 00:10:26.160 people didn't get the reference well there you go I guess it also wasn't 00:10:24.959 --> 00:10:32.040 great and like a lot of the comments were like Burl should have hosted this and you are correct but then no one 00:10:30.160 --> 00:10:36.079 would have been able to film it properly right so we weren't really sure how to 00:10:34.279 --> 00:10:42.880 as much as burkel should have hosted it Luke shouldn't have filmed it yeah yes 00:10:39.920 --> 00:10:47.720 yes very much true all right so this is some big news original article here is 00:10:46.040 --> 00:10:51.000 from let's go with the Wall Street Journal article are you posting this in 00:10:49.079 --> 00:10:57.959 the chat sure y I don't think we did that last week it is what it is 00:10:53.279 --> 00:11:01.839 Microsoft to acquire LinkedIn for 00:10:57.959 --> 00:11:04.839 26.2 bill million so how this affects 00:11:01.839 --> 00:11:07.360 one of our sponsors today um who was 00:11:04.839 --> 00:11:10.639 actually acquired by LinkedIn this year or late last year late last year I think 00:11:09.639 --> 00:11:15.360 yeah linda.com um probably very little 00:11:13.560 --> 00:11:20.200 according to Microsoft so they've said that LinkedIn will pretty much continue 00:11:17.279 --> 00:11:23.600 to operate as a as an a mostly independent company they're going to 00:11:21.480 --> 00:11:28.920 give them their head so to speak um it's a horse lingo lingo talk and uh yeah so 00:11:27.360 --> 00:11:33.760 blah blah blah LinkedIn team has grown a fantastic buered on connecting the 00:11:30.519 --> 00:11:33.760 world's professionals Microsoft 00:11:34.120 --> 00:11:41.000 CEO together we can accelerate the growth of LinkedIn as well as Microsoft 00:11:38.680 --> 00:11:49.760 Office 365 and Dynamics as we seek to empower every person and organization on 00:11:44.600 --> 00:11:53.399 the planet so there you have it the 00:11:49.760 --> 00:11:57.440 funny thing to me about Microsoft buying 00:11:53.399 --> 00:11:59.959 a social network is that Microsoft in 00:11:57.440 --> 00:12:05.880 the in the early days like had the best one had the had the best 00:12:03.560 --> 00:12:11.959 had the best online connect 00:12:08.160 --> 00:12:13.800 interconnected social platform and 00:12:11.959 --> 00:12:18.360 completely squandered it like do you remember those piss poor MSN profiles 00:12:16.360 --> 00:12:21.880 that you could create oh yeah that were like websites kind of and they were 00:12:20.240 --> 00:12:28.680 weird kind of like they had an opportunity to take that they had pretty 00:12:24.680 --> 00:12:30.600 much a monopoly on email yep so any 00:12:28.680 --> 00:12:36.399 everyone everyone in their dog had a Hotmail or an adn.com account and all 00:12:34.279 --> 00:12:39.720 this like data mining crap that guys like Facebook and Google have come in 00:12:38.240 --> 00:12:47.279 and captured Microsoft had an opportunity to develop as they went or 00:12:43.839 --> 00:12:49.560 just sit on ass for however long and uh 00:12:47.279 --> 00:12:52.560 acquire LinkedIn for 26 billion do you think you're going to have to have an 00:12:50.800 --> 00:12:57.839 Outlook login for LinkedIn yeah 00:12:56.120 --> 00:13:00.399 really that was the first thing I thought of when I saw that is there 00:12:59.240 --> 00:13:05.240 little bit aggressive about trying to get people to do like Outlook logins and 00:13:02.600 --> 00:13:11.560 whatnot for their stuff hm that's very interesting you know I actually have an 00:13:07.920 --> 00:13:13.560 Outlook login for um for our Office 365 00:13:11.560 --> 00:13:20.519 accounts y but have you noticed that it's like broken it's like rain. 00:13:17.600 --> 00:13:24.880 onmicrosoft.com and it's separate from my other Outlook logins that I can't it 00:13:22.800 --> 00:13:28.519 gave me one for mine and it's the same broken mess yeah and I legit I have to 00:13:27.240 --> 00:13:32.880 look up the source email every time I need to log in cuz I don't remember what it is I've spent like a couple email 00:13:31.040 --> 00:13:37.440 I've couple emails I've spent a couple of emails which is now a unit of time um 00:13:36.199 --> 00:13:41.199 we're like ammo I've got 10 emails today got spend 00:13:40.040 --> 00:13:45.079 them right going throw a couple 00:13:45.399 --> 00:13:54.040 here it's like the these bits are going to run out if we send too many 00:13:50.399 --> 00:13:56.160 emails um I've spent like a couple hours 00:13:54.040 --> 00:14:00.279 on a couple of occasions trying to figure out how to fix it cuz there's 00:13:57.519 --> 00:14:06.959 like a wizard but the wizard just doesn't work at all like somehow I ended 00:14:03.040 --> 00:14:11.160 up on like azir or something oh wow what 00:14:06.959 --> 00:14:15.120 what is this I just want it to be at my 00:14:11.160 --> 00:14:17.360 domain that okay just forget it um there 00:14:15.120 --> 00:14:20.360 they're weird about the email stuff so so how much do you wish you'd invested 00:14:18.839 --> 00:14:26.519 in LinkedIn at this point it was approved at 50% above the current market 00:14:23.160 --> 00:14:29.199 value for LinkedIn shares sick so the 00:14:26.519 --> 00:14:31.880 transaction was unanimously unanimously approved by the board of directors of 00:14:30.480 --> 00:14:37.199 both LinkedIn and Microsoft and it's expected to close this calendar 00:14:37.639 --> 00:14:44.800 year tell me 00:14:40.680 --> 00:14:46.519 something do you see and we should we 00:14:44.800 --> 00:14:52.920 should we should straw pull this because I want to hear from from you guys do you 00:14:49.360 --> 00:14:55.959 see a way that your engagement on 00:14:52.920 --> 00:14:58.759 LinkedIn could somehow affect your 00:14:55.959 --> 00:15:03.600 decision to I know where you're going no I don't I personally think LinkedIn is 00:15:00.560 --> 00:15:04.839 just this stupid super weird kind of 00:15:03.600 --> 00:15:11.160 circle jerk so every social media platform 00:15:07.800 --> 00:15:14.560 basically but in like a uniquely weird 00:15:11.160 --> 00:15:15.759 way where like people feel obligated to 00:15:14.560 --> 00:15:20.720 have an account H you know what I mean it's it's 00:15:18.959 --> 00:15:24.560 not like Facebook where they're like ah I'm on there cuz 00:15:22.399 --> 00:15:27.839 like like there's certain friends or like a specific group like I have two 00:15:26.199 --> 00:15:32.000 groups on Facebook that I care about one of them is a a group that a bunch of my 00:15:29.800 --> 00:15:35.839 friends have where we just link music to each other right and it's just basically 00:15:33.759 --> 00:15:39.079 a jukebox now y okay and then the other group is like a gaming group of friends 00:15:37.240 --> 00:15:43.240 that I have sure that's why I still have my Facebook a lot of people have like a 00:15:41.600 --> 00:15:49.040 reason or two to still have it LinkedIn is just like just most people just feel 00:15:45.800 --> 00:15:51.040 like they should well because it's your 00:15:49.040 --> 00:15:56.480 D it's like it's your resume now yeah yeah like I actually it's funny I didn't 00:15:53.279 --> 00:15:59.319 create a LinkedIn until I was thinking 00:15:56.480 --> 00:16:02.920 about leaving MC the reason I probably have one it's so I can show off my 00:16:00.600 --> 00:16:08.680 little gamification thing I I did the corsera course and got gamification 00:16:05.319 --> 00:16:10.920 certified and was like well I can put it 00:16:08.680 --> 00:16:16.759 there I don't think I've updated it since then I was just like me there we 00:16:13.800 --> 00:16:21.440 go I I guess another thing I'd be really curious to hear about because to a 00:16:19.680 --> 00:16:26.120 greater extent like an employer how an employer would use it um no no I want to 00:16:23.440 --> 00:16:31.120 know who all has an account cuz to a greater extent than something like 00:16:28.199 --> 00:16:35.199 Snapchat or Instagram or Twitter I can see a reason for pretty much everyone in 00:16:33.279 --> 00:16:38.759 their dog to have one even if it's just because they kind of feel like they have 00:16:36.560 --> 00:16:44.880 to like Facebook's kind of like that to me where even before I had other social 00:16:42.600 --> 00:16:50.639 media platforms that I used to promote the YouTube videos cuz quite quite 00:16:46.920 --> 00:16:53.680 frankly I'm not much of a a natural 00:16:50.639 --> 00:16:56.480 social media interactor like I like 00:16:53.680 --> 00:17:02.079 talking to you guys but if I could do that in some other way then I would 00:16:59.360 --> 00:17:07.319 prefer that like just spontaneously posting the the the meal that I'm about 00:17:04.480 --> 00:17:09.839 to eat or the product that I'm working on is not something that comes naturally 00:17:08.799 --> 00:17:15.079 it's something that I kind of do when I'm not that busy yeah it's really weird 00:17:12.280 --> 00:17:20.959 like I don't yeah but even before I did all that stuff even before it was kind 00:17:16.720 --> 00:17:23.240 of my job I had a Facebook account and I 00:17:20.959 --> 00:17:26.400 believe I had my LinkedIn account okay so those are the ones that are just you 00:17:24.839 --> 00:17:32.679 kind of have to have it CU everyone everyone has it at least from my perspective I don't think I had a 00:17:29.480 --> 00:17:33.480 LinkedIn account until the corsera thing 00:17:32.679 --> 00:17:40.200 for gamification I might have just like made one so that someone didn't steal my name 00:17:38.039 --> 00:17:43.600 or something right or my login handle or whatever I often do that with a lot of 00:17:42.160 --> 00:17:48.000 different things I sure wish I had done that on a lot of things yeah especially 00:17:45.799 --> 00:17:53.160 like now that I'm a little bit more of a prominent internet personality gamer 00:17:50.280 --> 00:17:55.919 dude people just snatch it up like I I get tweets all the time hey I was 00:17:54.919 --> 00:18:00.400 playing a game with you the other night I'm like so I was out of the country the 00:17:58.320 --> 00:18:07.520 other night I like super forgot my laptop and had no internet 00:18:02.480 --> 00:18:10.159 so no you weren't I have seen a lus tech 00:18:07.520 --> 00:18:15.240 with the little bunny thing really in a game that I have played what game I 00:18:12.799 --> 00:18:20.640 think it was Counterstrike it was not you oh okay I know it wasn't have you on 00:18:17.679 --> 00:18:27.760 my thing it was not you and like they didn't know that it was me oh really oh 00:18:24.000 --> 00:18:29.559 I see yeah so I was like uh this is 00:18:27.760 --> 00:18:33.799 weird cuz I know that's not I know that's not 00:18:31.640 --> 00:18:39.200 actually lonus but he doesn't know that this is me at all so this is a very 00:18:35.640 --> 00:18:41.480 weird situation so Microsoft is um is 00:18:39.200 --> 00:18:47.039 hoping to kind of bring it all together but it looks like most of you would not 00:18:45.200 --> 00:18:52.039 have LinkedIn effect your inclination to use Office 365 or Microsoft cloud 00:18:49.120 --> 00:18:56.600 services I spelled that wrong and I'm also going to have a look at how many of 00:18:54.640 --> 00:19:04.440 you actually have LinkedIn accounts whoa that was at I did not see 00:19:00.120 --> 00:19:06.559 that one coming age range though so are 00:19:04.440 --> 00:19:09.159 you guys I mean okay we we'll go to we'll go to Twitch chat for this just 00:19:08.200 --> 00:19:15.320 because I don't want to do a whole formal straw P we spent a lot of time on this topic already but is this something 00:19:13.440 --> 00:19:20.760 that you you don't have one because you feel too young for it or what exactly is 00:19:18.880 --> 00:19:25.360 the what exactly is the deal here um I'm going to go ahead and let 00:19:23.080 --> 00:19:29.360 twitch chat kind of got people saying it's creepy got other people saying get 00:19:27.600 --> 00:19:33.240 a job you darn kids yeah I've got a lot of you just saying yeah you're you're 00:19:30.760 --> 00:19:38.960 young and don't feel like you need one a lot of people posting their ages 00:19:36.200 --> 00:19:42.520 um apparently they haven't gone to hiding your personal information on the 00:19:40.480 --> 00:19:46.039 internet school I mean that's okay I mean the likelihood of uh someone screen 00:19:44.559 --> 00:19:50.280 scraping all of this information and tying it back to your account and and 00:19:48.159 --> 00:19:55.520 doxing you is very low and the odds of you actually being honest about it alen 00:19:52.240 --> 00:19:57.880 watching we have 67,000 years old okay 00:19:55.520 --> 00:20:01.000 that's cool that's that's good um although on that subject I actually 00:19:59.400 --> 00:20:07.640 don't know if this is in our topics for this week but um there was uh I was 00:20:04.559 --> 00:20:08.720 reading an article about a um shoot you 00:20:07.640 --> 00:20:13.120 know what why don't you take the next one and I'll see if I can find this because it was it was really interesting 00:20:11.919 --> 00:20:18.280 figure out what it is I'm going to jump a fair amount then all the way down to 00:20:16.559 --> 00:20:23.880 OverWatch taking the number one spot from League of Legends in Korean PC bong 00:20:20.760 --> 00:20:26.480 hopefully I'm saying that correctly I'm 00:20:23.880 --> 00:20:30.640 going to post the article in the chat which you're almost definitely not going 00:20:28.919 --> 00:20:35.200 to be able to read some of you will be able to but not that many considering it 00:20:32.799 --> 00:20:38.760 is super noted English um one of the main reasons why I find this interesting 00:20:37.039 --> 00:20:43.520 before I even go into the article at all which I'm pretty sure is just going to 00:20:40.480 --> 00:20:46.480 say that it is now being played more 00:20:43.520 --> 00:20:51.200 than League of Legends is that this is great I love this so much my personal 00:20:49.640 --> 00:20:55.440 opinion on OverWatch as some people have seen on Twitter is that it's kind of 00:20:53.760 --> 00:21:00.039 okay and that the only reason why I actually care about it is that my 00:20:56.880 --> 00:21:01.960 friends play the game itself I find 00:21:00.039 --> 00:21:09.159 rather uninteresting and I actually technically prefer Team Fortress um but 00:21:06.840 --> 00:21:12.760 this is a full price game that isn't free to play it has some 00:21:10.799 --> 00:21:17.400 microtransactions but it's an extremely small part of the game uh League of 00:21:15.360 --> 00:21:22.480 Legends is a free-to-play game that is Skins are a really big deal and you 00:21:20.279 --> 00:21:26.240 can't get them for free in OverWatch you can get the skins for free for sure you 00:21:24.440 --> 00:21:32.799 can just get more of them if you pay some money it's kind cool to see a game that 00:21:30.320 --> 00:21:37.520 you just have to buy and doesn't rely on this other stuff working well cuz 00:21:35.559 --> 00:21:41.039 hopefully more of those will happen well you'll have to elaborate on that I mean 00:21:39.080 --> 00:21:47.480 why do you care about non-free to-play games being popular I find that a lot of 00:21:44.120 --> 00:21:52.000 free to-play games are low quality and 00:21:47.480 --> 00:21:54.440 push extremely hard to try to form game 00:21:52.000 --> 00:21:58.360 mechanics around the idea of you spending money um I'm not saying League 00:21:57.080 --> 00:22:03.919 of Legends does that League of Legends is is actually one of the lowest offenders in terms of free-to-play games 00:22:02.320 --> 00:22:10.080 at all which is great they're doing great um and I would be way more happy 00:22:07.039 --> 00:22:11.279 if OverWatch beat anyone else because I 00:22:10.080 --> 00:22:17.039 don't feel like League of Legends is being that that aggressive with it but 00:22:14.240 --> 00:22:21.840 yeah I don't know I'm just happy that a paid game is working so well because 00:22:19.600 --> 00:22:27.360 usually paid games are just built around being good games so that more people buy 00:22:24.159 --> 00:22:31.120 them instead of being addictive games so 00:22:27.360 --> 00:22:33.600 that more people pay microtransaction 00:22:31.120 --> 00:22:38.480 fees yeah I don't think there's actually a ton to add from the article itself 00:22:36.159 --> 00:22:45.679 OverWatch took the spot by 0.3% of total playtime Countrywide so 00:22:41.440 --> 00:22:48.080 it's narrow and it's like a super hot 00:22:45.679 --> 00:22:52.480 new title yes just kind of throwing that out there it's it's sort of like it's 00:22:50.080 --> 00:22:59.279 it's the the sexy new girlfriend or boyfriend the infatuation is strong um 00:22:55.919 --> 00:23:01.000 like pretty much everyone I know oh 00:22:59.279 --> 00:23:04.840 super important note did you add this or did someone else add this uh Nick added 00:23:02.320 --> 00:23:09.159 it apparently you can play for free in a lot of the PC BNS so they probably have 00:23:06.960 --> 00:23:13.679 accounts tied to the computers yeah which is a huge reason that more people 00:23:11.559 --> 00:23:16.520 would be playing it so maybe not quite as cool as I thought but given the 00:23:14.799 --> 00:23:20.840 choice to play one free game versus another free game people are choosing to 00:23:18.440 --> 00:23:23.760 play OverWatch instead when I was in Taiwan people were playing with their 00:23:22.400 --> 00:23:28.000 own accounts so and like a huge amount of 00:23:26.520 --> 00:23:31.640 people were playing OverWatch there to the point where had like a big mural on 00:23:29.919 --> 00:23:36.480 the internet cafe sign if you want to see a super cool video on that uh coming 00:23:34.559 --> 00:23:42.360 soon I'm not going to say when yeah actually don't know exactly when I do 00:23:39.720 --> 00:23:49.440 clarify how like PCS for overwat apparently you just like Signet yeah and 00:23:45.000 --> 00:23:53.000 it's on your you can just ah okay it's 00:23:49.440 --> 00:23:54.559 not that's very cool okay they can't 00:23:53.000 --> 00:23:59.000 hear you so we should probably be summarizing rather than um or you could 00:23:57.000 --> 00:24:03.559 just come over here and talk into speak directly into the microphone uh he's he 00:24:02.159 --> 00:24:08.520 G us a finger so I guess we're explaining it okay so apparently you can 00:24:06.760 --> 00:24:12.159 log into your own account so that you have your own name and your own friends 00:24:10.000 --> 00:24:17.080 list and all that kind of stuff but the purchase of OverWatch is somehow tied to 00:24:14.640 --> 00:24:21.760 the PC bong so you can play for free which is cool yeah apparently uh League 00:24:19.400 --> 00:24:26.840 of Legends is more is more popular again as of as of more recent stats but it's 00:24:24.840 --> 00:24:31.320 still noteworthy given that this is the first time it's happened in four years 00:24:29.840 --> 00:24:34.640 that anything has overtaken League of Legends so essentially what happens is 00:24:33.120 --> 00:24:39.799 like the PC bongs work to deal with blizzard where they're like oh yeah we're just going to let everyone use the 00:24:37.279 --> 00:24:44.600 game and they pay like a lump Su to Blizzard then people play pay hourly to 00:24:41.880 --> 00:24:50.240 use it on their own account yeah okay so Gizmodo I'll go ahead and 00:24:47.960 --> 00:24:57.360 post this in the chat I'm already ready Gizmodo says Facebook will start 00:24:53.120 --> 00:25:00.960 tracking which stores you walk into 00:24:57.360 --> 00:25:05.039 awesome um awesome the data well awesome 00:25:00.960 --> 00:25:07.240 for Facebook oh okay the data mining is 00:25:05.039 --> 00:25:13.720 strong with this one yes Facebook wants to show advertisers that their ads make 00:25:10.159 --> 00:25:16.600 you visit their physical stores and buy 00:25:13.720 --> 00:25:21.559 their stuff so to do this they'll use the phone's location services to track 00:25:18.679 --> 00:25:27.320 whether people actually walk into a store after seeing an ad this is 00:25:25.440 --> 00:25:31.200 interesting because 00:25:29.440 --> 00:25:36.720 now that Facebook has said that they plan to do this I have to assume that 00:25:34.799 --> 00:25:42.919 they already know that the result is going to be a positive one or they 00:25:39.840 --> 00:25:44.399 probably wouldn't have brought it up so 00:25:42.919 --> 00:25:51.200 that no one asks them about it you're thinking they already did it i'm oh come 00:25:47.240 --> 00:25:53.600 on Facebook takes like probably 10 to 00:25:51.200 --> 00:25:57.720 15% off of my daily battery life it's doing something and it sure as hell 00:25:56.000 --> 00:26:02.679 isn't doing anything with me actually opening the Facebook is intense yeah um 00:26:00.799 --> 00:26:06.919 so it's called the local awareness feature and businesses can include a map 00:26:05.120 --> 00:26:11.039 with their ad to show users where the closest store is in case the user wants 00:26:09.640 --> 00:26:15.240 something immediately so the advertising business 00:26:13.600 --> 00:26:18.559 won't be able to see you individually they'll just be able to match visits 00:26:16.720 --> 00:26:23.000 with the number of people that saw their ad so early results from the feature 00:26:20.720 --> 00:26:29.039 have been good for businesses apparently French retailer El cler says it's 00:26:25.559 --> 00:26:31.919 reached 1.5 million people within 10 km 00:26:29.039 --> 00:26:36.679 12% of clicks led to a visit within a week so okay but the metric I want to 00:26:33.960 --> 00:26:41.080 see is the foot traffic change not that right because they might 00:26:39.559 --> 00:26:45.440 have gone anyway yeah I want to see the increased amount of foot traffic that happened because of this that's the only 00:26:43.880 --> 00:26:48.919 metric that really matters there well I don't even know what Ela cler is because 00:26:47.200 --> 00:26:53.960 if it's like a grocery store then the odds of you going to a grocery store 00:26:50.640 --> 00:26:56.520 within a week are pretty good um let's 00:26:53.960 --> 00:27:03.440 have let's have a look at the heck what this is so 00:26:58.880 --> 00:27:06.360 um sports gear why is there an ad for TV 00:27:03.440 --> 00:27:10.440 wait what oh maybe they maybe no I think they're a 00:27:08.080 --> 00:27:15.039 sponsor enter the competition no I don't want to enter the competition what do 00:27:12.360 --> 00:27:21.600 they do they sell nesty so are they just like a big Walmart kind of thing I don't 00:27:17.520 --> 00:27:23.880 know online store high-tech wine they 00:27:21.600 --> 00:27:28.520 have everything it's a supermarket okay so 00:27:27.120 --> 00:27:35.559 it's a supermarket yeah a bunch of people are saying it's a supermarket so basically a marketer at a supermarket 00:27:32.679 --> 00:27:40.159 thinks it's interesting that that percentage of people who 00:27:37.679 --> 00:27:44.440 clicked on the ad went to a store I mean this is kind of a correlation causation 00:27:42.279 --> 00:27:50.120 argument don't you think I would argue that if you clicked on a coupon or 00:27:46.960 --> 00:27:51.919 something for ELA cler the odds were 00:27:50.120 --> 00:27:54.640 excellent that you were already planning a trip there because it's a grocery 00:27:53.440 --> 00:28:01.320 store and you're just taking advantage of a deal I'll bounce back in one second but I seriously think that's why I want 00:27:59.120 --> 00:28:04.240 to see the the foot traffic numbers right like like I don't really care 00:28:03.039 --> 00:28:08.120 about your clicks how many people actually made it into the store cuz that's what matters to me if I'm A store 00:28:06.840 --> 00:28:14.880 owner right interesting I mean these guys are 00:28:10.640 --> 00:28:17.640 advertising in huge volume 12% of clicks 00:28:14.880 --> 00:28:24.480 so 180,000 led to a visit within a week so 12% of 180,000 is what like almost 00:28:21.240 --> 00:28:26.279 20,000 people almost 20,000 visits based 00:28:24.480 --> 00:28:32.919 on your Facebook app tracking where you're going that is some creepy stuff 00:28:29.440 --> 00:28:34.840 right there I am I am not a huge fan of 00:28:32.919 --> 00:28:40.279 this to be very clear when I said that's cool at the beginning I meant that's 00:28:37.440 --> 00:28:45.120 cool in terms of that is a very uh interesting use of 00:28:41.760 --> 00:28:47.919 Technology um and that is very very sort 00:28:45.120 --> 00:28:52.080 of clever advertising not that's cool I want my Facebook app tracking me because 00:28:50.200 --> 00:28:58.480 quite honestly the only reason I even have Facebook installed on my phone is 00:28:54.640 --> 00:29:00.840 because Facebook has been burying any 00:28:58.480 --> 00:29:07.279 content that's not posted natively to their platform so for example if I sent 00:29:03.159 --> 00:29:10.679 out a tweet like oh this 00:29:07.279 --> 00:29:13.000 Stormtrooper uh keychain dude ad is so 00:29:10.679 --> 00:29:16.880 cool go check it out on amaz excuse me not Amazon somewhere else I guess uh go 00:29:15.080 --> 00:29:20.240 check it out wherever else if I posted that to Twitter the way I had it set up 00:29:18.200 --> 00:29:25.519 in the past is I would just have that tweet waterfall to the Facebook page 00:29:22.679 --> 00:29:30.159 well Facebook actually started actively blocking the waterfalling of our YouTube 00:29:28.200 --> 00:29:35.880 video posts because it was working and then stopped so now we have to manually 00:29:33.039 --> 00:29:39.279 post video releases there and what I realized they've been doing once I 00:29:37.559 --> 00:29:42.600 started posting stuff natively to Facebook is they've been burying any 00:29:41.240 --> 00:29:47.080 anything that waterfall from another platform so you can actually see right 00:29:44.399 --> 00:29:52.679 on every Facebook post what the reach is and you can obviously see publicly 00:29:48.919 --> 00:29:56.240 visible data like likes and comments 00:29:52.679 --> 00:29:59.039 and I started posting stuff that I just 00:29:56.240 --> 00:30:02.919 I and I mean I mean don't take this the wrong way I mean you know keep hitting 00:30:01.480 --> 00:30:06.600 that like button on Facebook or commenting or whatever but like I was 00:30:04.960 --> 00:30:12.000 posting stuff that I really didn't think was very interesting on uh on Facebook 00:30:10.440 --> 00:30:17.240 like uh here what's what's a good example I posted like a picture of a 00:30:13.679 --> 00:30:19.519 graphics card um yeah here we go a 00:30:17.240 --> 00:30:26.960 picture of an evj graphics card last night less than 24 hours ago that 00:30:22.000 --> 00:30:28.880 reached 240,000 people has 00:30:26.960 --> 00:30:37.039 9.2000 likes 166 shares and 372 comments I mean 00:30:34.720 --> 00:30:43.159 I will give it to Facebook when they decide to push your content to people 00:30:40.000 --> 00:30:46.880 apparently either they're like really 00:30:43.159 --> 00:30:49.880 like doing it or other platforms are 00:30:46.880 --> 00:30:52.640 burying content to a much greater degree 00:30:49.880 --> 00:30:56.919 than I originally anticipated because we've only got what is 00:30:55.360 --> 00:31:02.120 it um 00:30:59.240 --> 00:31:06.880 342,000 likes on the Facebook page so to get that many is insane so to have a 00:31:04.080 --> 00:31:11.480 reach of 250,000 I mean that's like us publishing every single YouTube video we 00:31:08.840 --> 00:31:14.360 publish getting 2 million views or like one and a half million people can just 00:31:12.679 --> 00:31:20.080 scroll past it not even look at it and it counts does it yeah okay so that's 00:31:17.760 --> 00:31:22.880 why the video views count on Facebook is so insane because it starts autop 00:31:21.399 --> 00:31:28.519 playing when you scroll by but that still tells us something really interesting and that's that unlike 00:31:27.200 --> 00:31:37.679 Twitter you know apparently 70% of our Facebook 00:31:32.720 --> 00:31:40.159 likes a haven't like muted us and B are 00:31:37.679 --> 00:31:45.120 actually getting the post uh and the same same thing goes for YouTube 00:31:41.360 --> 00:31:47.600 subscriptions there is no way and you 00:31:45.120 --> 00:31:52.399 know uh game theorist did a great video on this there is no way that YouTube 00:31:50.320 --> 00:31:56.320 actually pushes every one of your videos to every one of your subscribers they 00:31:54.120 --> 00:32:01.080 actually don't do it you don't get our videos If I recall correctly 00:31:58.919 --> 00:32:04.399 I like every once in a while I'll notice that I haven't gotten them in forever so 00:32:02.639 --> 00:32:07.799 I'll go and just like autoplay some playlists and then they'll start to pop 00:32:05.679 --> 00:32:11.399 up again yeah so there you go if you're not watching regularly they they just 00:32:09.679 --> 00:32:16.559 kind of stop delivering the worst is when I'll have a video playing and like 00:32:14.799 --> 00:32:19.440 I'll leave work and forget about it take my headphones off it's still playing 00:32:18.000 --> 00:32:26.440 leave work forget about it come back in on like Monday and it's just still 00:32:22.559 --> 00:32:28.880 playing videos from whoever and now all 00:32:26.440 --> 00:32:35.039 my subscription boxes are just solidly them that would be a really fun video 00:32:32.120 --> 00:32:38.480 like a rabbit hole Style video like exploring the YouTube rabbit hole like 00:32:37.159 --> 00:32:45.000 do different things and just see how it reacts cuz we would never be able to actually figure it out no you should do 00:32:42.360 --> 00:32:51.519 nothing so we should leave YouTube videos playing watch next for like a 00:32:48.240 --> 00:32:53.120 week oh waa or like a month and like we 00:32:51.519 --> 00:32:58.200 should do it on like we could create a bunch of VMS so we could actually do it 00:32:55.679 --> 00:33:05.639 on like 20 computers at the same time time and we could we should start them 00:33:01.880 --> 00:33:08.519 all on the same video like 10 seconds 00:33:05.639 --> 00:33:13.600 apart and then see where they all end up how far how deep does the YouTube 00:33:11.600 --> 00:33:19.039 rabbit hole go and like what it's what it is now suggesting to you and stuff 00:33:16.600 --> 00:33:24.480 yeah should we also on on the VMS should we VPN them out so they're in different 00:33:20.720 --> 00:33:25.720 geographical locations I don't think so 00:33:24.480 --> 00:33:29.919 I think should we try that with like one or two just to see if it's yeah yeah 00:33:27.840 --> 00:33:34.000 should have a couple be from uh so we should VPN most of them to America or 00:33:32.159 --> 00:33:36.840 something and then we should do like a couple in Canada a couple in Great 00:33:35.519 --> 00:33:42.679 Britain or something like that and like a couple in Australia and I want to see 00:33:40.480 --> 00:33:46.039 I want to see where they end up I bet this could be like a Twitch Plays 00:33:44.159 --> 00:33:50.200 Pokemon type thing if it wasn't for all the copyright infringement like if you 00:33:47.880 --> 00:33:54.279 just had amount of copy all the copyright anyway just but if you had a 00:33:52.440 --> 00:33:58.519 twitch channel that just played the rabbit hole I I I bet that would go like 00:33:56.880 --> 00:34:02.480 I bet people would be interested that where is where is Twitch chat's freaking 00:34:00.360 --> 00:34:06.960 out they're like they're like do it do it do it do it uh do you want do you 00:34:04.240 --> 00:34:11.200 want to do it sure okay uh I'll email myself all right yeah let's let's do it 00:34:08.919 --> 00:34:15.560 I am uh I am super curious because there is no way that the algorithm sends them 00:34:14.079 --> 00:34:21.119 all to the same place it's so experimental like it's it's constantly 00:34:17.919 --> 00:34:22.720 learning so uh you know oh man I can't 00:34:21.119 --> 00:34:28.720 even imagine some of the weird stuff some of them will have been watching by the time we get back to 00:34:26.240 --> 00:34:33.599 it I like it so like how do we film this though do we do like updates along the 00:34:30.280 --> 00:34:35.839 way or do we just like personally take 00:34:33.599 --> 00:34:41.440 notes along the way and then do a recap video so we have a machine if you can 00:34:38.760 --> 00:34:47.679 only tie it up for like a week I have a 44 core machine so we could actually 00:34:45.359 --> 00:34:57.040 probably screen C this just such a like I have a 44 cor 00:34:54.119 --> 00:35:00.200 like who can just say that like I don't know sorry 00:34:58.160 --> 00:35:07.760 keep going sometimes the job catches me you could do 44 VMS each running a 2.2 00:35:03.920 --> 00:35:10.280 GHz Broadwell core core i7 with 00:35:07.760 --> 00:35:14.240 hyperthreading okay you can do 44 machines and if you can only tie it up 00:35:12.520 --> 00:35:17.599 for like a week because I'm going to roll it out as like a render server at 00:35:16.000 --> 00:35:23.160 some point I'm actually bench I'm stress testing it now um then then go ham go 00:35:20.800 --> 00:35:28.119 ham because uh John from lime Tech can help you clone the VM so you don't even 00:35:25.800 --> 00:35:33.359 use up extra storage I could even put like 15 or 20 of them on the standard 00:35:31.520 --> 00:35:37.960 experiment yeah and then try some weird stuff with start start on like a start 00:35:36.119 --> 00:35:42.760 on a Linus Tech tips video and because it's a reasonably powerful core you 00:35:40.280 --> 00:35:48.119 could set up xplit on all of them and you could actually record the entire 00:35:44.839 --> 00:35:50.760 thing because it's an unraid server so 00:35:48.119 --> 00:35:54.200 we could fill it with all the storage oh my God how much storage we need for that 00:35:52.599 --> 00:35:59.839 a lot 44 computers constantly capturing their 00:35:56.839 --> 00:36:01.280 screen for AEK week yes how much story 00:35:59.839 --> 00:36:07.680 should be fine we could record at pretty low bit rate I don't think it's a big deal like 720 720p like 2 megabit 00:36:05.920 --> 00:36:14.280 something or yeah something like that yeah should be fine so 88 megabit for a 00:36:10.839 --> 00:36:16.040 week yeah I mean that's only uh you know 00:36:14.280 --> 00:36:21.160 this a lot yeah yeah it's fine it's fine it's fine 8 megabytes per second yeah 00:36:19.119 --> 00:36:27.240 should be fine it's a lot yeah I like it I like it I like it I no 88 not no 88 oh 00:36:25.280 --> 00:36:30.480 yes yes yes yes 88 megabytes per oh yeah yeah yeah be fine she'll be fine yeah 00:36:29.000 --> 00:36:35.240 we've got those uh we've got those 4 terab ssds so those will those will bear 00:36:32.839 --> 00:36:41.079 the Brent of it for a little while we are going to build the most ridiculous 00:36:37.720 --> 00:36:43.079 like YouTube watching machine yeah will 00:36:41.079 --> 00:36:48.040 we be violating YouTube's terms of service are you allowed to not watch I 00:36:46.079 --> 00:36:53.839 mean come on it's it's in the name of science it's 00:36:50.720 --> 00:36:55.280 not technically a bot yeah it's actually 00:36:53.839 --> 00:36:58.319 legitimately someone will sit and they will click and then it's up to YouTube 00:36:57.000 --> 00:37:05.480 what they do for there it's not our fault does it ever will it stop I don't 00:37:02.680 --> 00:37:08.720 think it stops we'll find out we'll find out we'll report back to you guys we 00:37:06.880 --> 00:37:13.240 need keep the mouse moving on all of them write a script to keep the mouse 00:37:10.599 --> 00:37:17.119 moving that's a bot but it's not interacting with the window I not saying 00:37:15.760 --> 00:37:21.200 clicking or anything just keep the mouse moving I see so it could just click the 00:37:19.160 --> 00:37:28.280 start menu periodically probably yeah yeah okay okay well we'll uh we won't do 00:37:25.520 --> 00:37:33.839 any of that totally not at all um okay smaller chips moving 00:37:31.520 --> 00:37:37.960 forward that is to say processors oh you beat me to it it ready rat bastard 00:37:36.280 --> 00:37:45.359 original article here from The New York Times may depend on this is such a great 00:37:41.520 --> 00:37:47.000 uh this is such a great like um I 00:37:45.359 --> 00:37:51.319 actually don't know where they put it in the article nope no it looks like 00:37:48.960 --> 00:37:55.720 someone was just the the SEO guy over at the New York Times was just having fun 00:37:53.359 --> 00:38:01.400 uh smaller chips may depend on technology from Grandma's radio 00:37:59.400 --> 00:38:06.800 when the actual headline is smaller chips may depend on vacuum tube 00:38:03.800 --> 00:38:08.640 technology so the the the URL is just 00:38:06.800 --> 00:38:13.079 kind of funny the URL is amazing that's pretty cool um some writer was like no 00:38:10.839 --> 00:38:19.599 one's ever going to see this so the Silicon transistor is a tiny 00:38:16.520 --> 00:38:21.760 switch that is basically the fundamental 00:38:19.599 --> 00:38:26.119 building block of modern microelectronics um and they've been 00:38:23.440 --> 00:38:29.960 getting smaller and smaller and smaller and smaller until they've gotten to the 00:38:27.599 --> 00:38:33.599 point where they they they they can't figure out what substrates to put them 00:38:31.839 --> 00:38:38.920 on and they can't figure out how to cram them any closer together without having 00:38:35.640 --> 00:38:41.760 to deal with like electron migration and 00:38:38.920 --> 00:38:44.480 and and they just just plain old can't build them any smaller it's becoming 00:38:43.319 --> 00:38:49.920 like a very much a problem yeah more Mo's law 00:38:47.720 --> 00:38:55.079 I mean look at Intel they were like Tick Tock until the end of time now it's like 00:38:52.839 --> 00:39:00.319 Ticky talk it's like a but even with more law 00:38:58.119 --> 00:39:04.960 the idea isn't that you do the exact same thing forever the idea is you 00:39:03.480 --> 00:39:09.119 innovate and change what you're doing but the performance metrics and whatnot 00:39:06.880 --> 00:39:14.160 increase well Mo's law strictly speaking like original Moors law was that the 00:39:11.079 --> 00:39:17.880 transistor density would double okay 00:39:14.160 --> 00:39:19.720 yeah so so yes so I guess it is totally 00:39:17.880 --> 00:39:23.560 you do the same so if you find ways to improve performance that involve like 00:39:21.800 --> 00:39:29.079 farting on every chip on its way out of the factory if that somehow unicorn 00:39:25.920 --> 00:39:30.599 farts or something and that's still 00:39:29.079 --> 00:39:34.599 maintaining the performance can now reflect every color of the rainbow 00:39:32.760 --> 00:39:38.359 because of the unicorn fart so it makes it like a Quantum chip because yeah you 00:39:36.800 --> 00:39:42.160 don't necessarily know which color it could have any state within the entire 00:39:39.880 --> 00:39:46.400 spectrum of light yeah which would that's Ian actually very cool good 00:39:44.560 --> 00:39:54.760 thought if only we could find a unicorn to test it um so anyway smaller chips uh 00:39:50.640 --> 00:39:57.839 may see the Silicon transistor 00:39:54.760 --> 00:40:02.240 replaced by the vacuum tube which is 00:39:57.839 --> 00:40:03.720 like so ass backwards because the other 00:40:02.240 --> 00:40:09.280 version of that like the vacuum tube being replaced by the transistors 00:40:06.040 --> 00:40:11.359 happened in 19 in the 1970s so like it 00:40:09.280 --> 00:40:17.800 happening again and the other way I don't know the size of these things is 00:40:15.079 --> 00:40:21.800 uh where is it like 1 millionth the size of original vacuum tubes or something 00:40:19.720 --> 00:40:25.319 yeah so this is um there's actually a lot of notes on this article because uh 00:40:23.920 --> 00:40:28.960 Colton and Nick know that we're not particularly sciency so they try and 00:40:26.960 --> 00:40:33.240 help us so it's the Nano fabrication group at Caltech that's researching 00:40:30.760 --> 00:40:38.280 these Ultra small fabricated circuits that function like vacuum tubes as a 00:40:36.680 --> 00:40:42.240 candidate to replace the transistor none of this is said in stone the the ultra 00:40:40.079 --> 00:40:46.760 small means something to the effect of 1 millionth the size of old vacuum tubes 00:40:44.960 --> 00:40:50.960 the research is being financed by Boeing and the researchers have also explored 00:40:48.560 --> 00:40:55.160 using vacuum tubes for flat panel displays in sorry not these researchers 00:40:53.240 --> 00:40:59.359 researchers also explored using them for flat panel displays in the 1990s though 00:40:57.720 --> 00:41:05.839 LCD technology ended up being both cheaper and more effective in that case 00:41:02.800 --> 00:41:08.160 so here's kind of like the the 00:41:05.839 --> 00:41:11.839 counterintuitive brain explosion how it works because the problem with modern 00:41:10.119 --> 00:41:15.920 transistors is that the smaller they get the more they leak electrons so in 00:41:13.880 --> 00:41:20.040 modern chips as much as half of the power consumed is being lost to 00:41:17.720 --> 00:41:25.079 electrons leaking from transistors that are only dozens of atoms wide wasting 00:41:22.079 --> 00:41:27.640 energy and generating heat which Heat by 00:41:25.079 --> 00:41:33.839 the way causes these transistors to eventually fail speeding up the process 00:41:29.920 --> 00:41:36.359 of um electron migration so these 00:41:33.839 --> 00:41:40.599 miniature vacuum tube switches use a mechanism that causes leak use the 00:41:39.119 --> 00:41:44.400 mechanism that causes leakage in transistors known as Quantum tunneling 00:41:42.319 --> 00:41:49.040 to switch on end off the flow of electrons without leakage yes which is 00:41:47.359 --> 00:41:53.920 like the whole point so they would use less power and work faster than today's 00:41:51.480 --> 00:41:57.680 transistor based chips they can be yeah to be clear vacuum tubes are not the 00:41:55.520 --> 00:42:02.480 only thing that could Poss possibly replace the modern transistor carbon 00:41:59.440 --> 00:42:04.720 Nano tubes which we hear a lot about but 00:42:02.480 --> 00:42:08.800 see very little yes um and have been hearing a lot about for a very long time 00:42:07.440 --> 00:42:13.800 so hopefully something actually happens with them um but yeah this is just 00:42:12.079 --> 00:42:18.839 another one of those attempts to solve the problem um so to be clear how close 00:42:16.280 --> 00:42:25.920 are we to being up against the wall well once the industry shrinks below 10 nmet 00:42:21.400 --> 00:42:28.839 which by the way um we're as low as 14 00:42:25.920 --> 00:42:33.400 nanm on in's latest process so once the industry gets below 10 NM silicon 00:42:31.280 --> 00:42:40.640 becomes much more unpredictable doing weird stuff like emitting light so um 00:42:37.599 --> 00:42:44.640 that's not ideal and a new solution will 00:42:40.640 --> 00:42:46.440 be needed yeah uh this is interesting so 00:42:44.640 --> 00:42:53.160 the original article here is from USA Today Microsoft makes a bold move into 00:42:49.000 --> 00:42:54.680 helping serve the marijuana business I 00:42:53.160 --> 00:42:59.119 think this is super smart does this have to do with their uh Washington 00:42:56.480 --> 00:42:59.119 headquarters 00:43:00.680 --> 00:43:07.800 that's kind of funny maybe what the reason why I think this is super smart 00:43:04.400 --> 00:43:11.200 is because Canada is currently trying to 00:43:07.800 --> 00:43:12.640 make it officially legal um and is 00:43:11.200 --> 00:43:17.480 planning for that in like 2017 or whatever we've seen States like Colorado 00:43:15.280 --> 00:43:22.880 be able to do amazing things with the taxable money that they've gotten off of 00:43:19.440 --> 00:43:24.040 the sale of this stuff uh like actually 00:43:22.880 --> 00:43:31.079 really amazing things considering they've made millions and millions of dollars off of it which is great so it's 00:43:28.640 --> 00:43:34.559 kind of happening it being legalized is kind of happening so Microsoft getting 00:43:32.839 --> 00:43:40.920 behind it in the server side of things is great they're doing that not by like 00:43:38.119 --> 00:43:45.079 necessarily making anything but they're allowing a company called kind at least 00:43:43.640 --> 00:43:50.240 I think that's a short version of It kind Financial to use their azur service 00:43:48.160 --> 00:43:54.599 for their what is it seed to sale program which tracks plants the all the 00:43:52.839 --> 00:43:57.960 way through the process which is good because it's a highly regulated 00:43:56.160 --> 00:44:04.640 government thing as it probably should be yeah and I mean that's one of the 00:44:00.599 --> 00:44:08.079 things about pot um now I slang terms 00:44:04.640 --> 00:44:10.040 I've had a lot I've actually had a lot 00:44:08.079 --> 00:44:14.160 of people don't know what these are speculate I just like put fingers over 00:44:12.440 --> 00:44:19.920 top of other fingers and was like yeah in American Sign Language it's two RS 00:44:16.160 --> 00:44:23.640 facing each other is it yep nice 00:44:19.920 --> 00:44:26.040 yeah okay thank you for that um so two 00:44:23.640 --> 00:44:32.119 lions I've seen a lot of speculation online uh as to whether or not I h420 00:44:30.400 --> 00:44:36.839 blaze it I'm going to actually acknowledge it for the first time ever I 00:44:34.240 --> 00:44:39.839 don't smoke pot I don't either I get lots of comments about that too because 00:44:38.000 --> 00:44:44.160 I have kind of droopy eyes yeah so everyone just no I don't I look tired 00:44:41.880 --> 00:44:47.720 because I run my own business and my eyes are red because I'm up late running 00:44:45.800 --> 00:44:52.559 my own business and so a lot of people figure that that has to do with the 00:44:49.200 --> 00:44:54.440 marriage of an it actually isn't um the 00:44:52.559 --> 00:44:58.040 last thing I need is to be slightly less alert at any point during the day 00:44:55.839 --> 00:45:04.040 because I have two almost three children now and I have stuff to do I do support 00:45:01.040 --> 00:45:06.079 the legalization and Taxation though so 00:45:04.040 --> 00:45:09.480 I again I'm taking a stance on something that I normally don't get involved in I 00:45:07.720 --> 00:45:13.800 fully support the legalization of it because of a couple of reasons number 00:45:11.119 --> 00:45:16.760 one is I have to pay a toll to cross the bridge into the city now because our 00:45:15.480 --> 00:45:22.000 government doesn't have enough money because they're busy letting the Hell's Angels take all the revenue from 00:45:19.880 --> 00:45:24.559 marijuana sales thank you for that and you're clearly not stopping it from 00:45:23.480 --> 00:45:29.960 happening so you might as well make money off it and number two is I would really like for marijuana to be safer 00:45:28.079 --> 00:45:35.599 for the people who are using it uh right now marijuana is not a drug that is and 00:45:33.680 --> 00:45:38.839 you know what you can debate this all day but it's not a drug that is in the 00:45:37.200 --> 00:45:42.720 grand scheme of things particularly dangerous especially when compared to 00:45:40.599 --> 00:45:46.280 other completely legal substances like alcohol and when you're buying it from 00:45:44.480 --> 00:45:49.680 like super sketchy dudes they could lace it with whatever and it can be a 00:45:47.880 --> 00:45:54.440 dangerous process and that's where marijuana can get extraordinarily 00:45:51.520 --> 00:45:58.280 dangerous and can be used as a gateway drug so to speak to get people hooked on 00:45:56.240 --> 00:46:01.079 much much harder substances something that while I haven't personally 00:45:59.599 --> 00:46:06.359 experienced I've had people that are very close to me personally experience 00:46:03.400 --> 00:46:10.599 and is a super huge bummer so having it be available legally and getting the 00:46:08.480 --> 00:46:14.480 taxation Revenue as well as making it safer for people who are quite frankly 00:46:12.240 --> 00:46:19.839 obviously going to do it anyway is not the end of the world for me you're 00:46:15.720 --> 00:46:21.960 really losing that war um not you like 00:46:19.839 --> 00:46:25.839 so yeah there you have it I have officially taken a stance on it I don't 00:46:23.599 --> 00:46:29.240 use it I never have I don't intend to but I don't care if other people use it 00:46:27.559 --> 00:46:32.760 cuz I personally don't think there's anything you can do to stop them anyhow 00:46:30.880 --> 00:46:36.880 and give the government that tax money that's the M like oh my God Colorado 00:46:34.880 --> 00:46:42.440 made so much off of that that's fantastic fill some holes in some roads 00:46:39.760 --> 00:46:46.559 take some tolls away take my toll off education you know how much that bridge 00:46:43.880 --> 00:46:51.119 costs across it's like 350 each way it cost me $7 to go to IKEA not to mention 00:46:49.160 --> 00:46:55.520 the like $500 that you spend every time you go to IKEA because how does it 00:46:52.800 --> 00:46:59.960 happen it just does it just does yeah what if Ikea had tolls 00:46:58.440 --> 00:47:02.880 um in order to go backwards through the story you have to like spend 00:47:05.160 --> 00:47:11.079 money well it's kind of like that because you can't get out of the store I 00:47:08.680 --> 00:47:15.000 know that's what I mean though or like if you go from one section to the next 00:47:12.960 --> 00:47:19.200 section without spending like 15 minutes there you get a toll so if you like 00:47:17.599 --> 00:47:24.520 spend long enough in each section of the store you can go through it for free or 00:47:21.480 --> 00:47:26.680 if you spend even longer you get a bonus 00:47:24.520 --> 00:47:30.440 of free meatballs the number of people like listening to me but not 00:47:28.440 --> 00:47:33.960 understanding me is unbelievable OMG it's not a gateway drug it sure as hell 00:47:32.200 --> 00:47:38.079 is if it's laced with something else that you become physically dependent on 00:47:35.880 --> 00:47:43.280 if you put something hyper addictive on top of the weed or whatever that clearly 00:47:40.960 --> 00:47:47.319 not exactly how the process works but yeah you I don't know these things um 00:47:45.680 --> 00:47:51.359 you would then become addicted to that and need that and then yeah and you can 00:47:49.720 --> 00:47:55.760 to be very clear and this is something a lot of people don't know you can be 00:47:52.920 --> 00:48:00.520 addicted to a substance never having knowingly consumed it or even in fact 00:47:58.000 --> 00:48:06.160 never having consumed it um babies can be born addicted to heroin um and by 00:48:03.920 --> 00:48:09.440 addicted that doesn't mean they use it that means that they are physically 00:48:07.800 --> 00:48:14.640 dependent on it and they will undergo withdrawal symptoms if they were to get 00:48:12.559 --> 00:48:20.119 some small taste of it and then not have it anymore instantly because they already 00:48:17.960 --> 00:48:25.040 have a physical dependency yeah so it's it's we're talking about jerk bag drug 00:48:22.559 --> 00:48:30.079 dealers lacing things in order to hook clients that they can make money on for 00:48:26.880 --> 00:48:33.800 rest of that Cent's life talk 00:48:30.079 --> 00:48:36.280 yeah um all right so let's talk about uh 00:48:33.800 --> 00:48:42.119 let's talk about ways of making money on that subject that I personally uh don't 00:48:39.520 --> 00:48:48.280 really agree with uh let's do the uh the internet creators Guild 00:48:43.920 --> 00:48:53.119 so I'm on it I would call myself veral 00:48:48.280 --> 00:48:55.359 no okay as big a fan of Hank Green and 00:48:53.119 --> 00:48:58.760 the Green Brothers in general that I could be 00:48:57.240 --> 00:49:02.160 watching their content like I've probably only watched you could count on 00:49:00.680 --> 00:49:06.880 one hand the number of videos I've watched from them but I respect them a 00:49:03.799 --> 00:49:10.760 lot as Internet entrepreneurs as content 00:49:06.880 --> 00:49:14.079 creators as people who have taken 00:49:10.760 --> 00:49:15.960 making YouTube videos and turned it into 00:49:14.079 --> 00:49:20.760 not just a bigger business because it's not just about that but into into a 00:49:18.520 --> 00:49:24.040 viable career for the people around them it's something I admire it's something I 00:49:22.240 --> 00:49:30.559 respect it's something I aspire to do for myself um and for the people around 00:49:27.280 --> 00:49:33.000 me like this guy hello um I think that 00:49:30.559 --> 00:49:38.839 being an online content creator is a real job and I like to be the proof of 00:49:35.760 --> 00:49:40.839 it not just for myself but for others 00:49:38.839 --> 00:49:46.799 have you noticed it's getting notably less weird to tell people what you do 00:49:43.880 --> 00:49:53.040 yep at least heard YouTube three years even like huge changes so uh I never 00:49:51.319 --> 00:49:57.319 even used to tell people the YouTube part of my job when I was try to hide it 00:49:55.480 --> 00:50:02.079 yeah and now when I try hide it by saying uh I work for a media creation 00:50:00.079 --> 00:50:05.880 company and they eventually dig a little bit further and I say YouTube it's not 00:50:03.480 --> 00:50:11.880 like the super weird response anymore so with my respect for the Green Brothers 00:50:09.040 --> 00:50:17.760 um and Hank in particular someone in the chat sorry the chat is like thank God 00:50:14.040 --> 00:50:17.760 lonus thinks his own job is a real 00:50:18.119 --> 00:50:27.079 job that was a close one 00:50:21.200 --> 00:50:30.040 there um I think this is an ugly blate 00:50:27.079 --> 00:50:35.880 cash grab I think that the internet creators Guild post from Hank Green 00:50:33.920 --> 00:50:43.880 announcing it two days ago um reads like a like a like a market 00:50:40.960 --> 00:50:51.880 analysis business case study uh determining the feasibility of this as a 00:50:46.760 --> 00:50:54.119 way to make a profit um maybe I am 00:50:51.880 --> 00:51:01.240 completely backwards because for the most part uh Hanks and intentions seem 00:50:58.119 --> 00:51:04.319 pretty good he seems to have in the past 00:51:01.240 --> 00:51:06.760 been pretty Pro content creator but I 00:51:04.319 --> 00:51:12.960 can't think of a reason for anything that the internet creators Guild 00:51:08.520 --> 00:51:15.160 proposes to do to cost money um and this 00:51:12.960 --> 00:51:19.240 all reads like like figuring out like it's like an it's like a spreadsheet of 00:51:17.200 --> 00:51:21.720 how much money we can make on this how many internet creators are there how 00:51:20.760 --> 00:51:27.599 about 37,000 and then there's some crap about 00:51:24.920 --> 00:51:30.839 for context Facebook has ,000 employees and if every internet Creator were a 00:51:28.880 --> 00:51:36.079 company it would be hiring faster than any company in Silicon Valley and 00:51:32.280 --> 00:51:38.920 there's 300,000 people making more than 00:51:36.079 --> 00:51:43.520 what what 2500 if internet Creator were a company it would be if you added them 00:51:41.040 --> 00:51:52.760 all together anyway um so the number of people making $2,500 a year um 300,000 00:51:48.760 --> 00:51:55.559 blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah 00:51:52.760 --> 00:51:59.760 um blah blah blah blah blah blah blah continues to get more complex it's up to 00:51:57.920 --> 00:52:03.720 and a lot of this is valid the fact that it's up to individual creators to take 00:52:01.640 --> 00:52:07.920 time off from their lives running small businesses to you know deal with 00:52:06.480 --> 00:52:12.319 something going wrong like oh I don't know say for example Amazon cutting off 00:52:09.839 --> 00:52:16.280 your affiliate account um and I've known people who have personally had it happen 00:52:13.640 --> 00:52:20.280 to not just me for reasons that suck a lot more than well I violated the terms 00:52:18.440 --> 00:52:27.280 of service and they kick me to the curb without so much as a phone call or a uh 00:52:22.520 --> 00:52:29.240 you know one last time you know um 00:52:27.280 --> 00:52:32.799 like Austin for example someone in the chat sorry this this was my point so I 00:52:31.079 --> 00:52:36.599 wanted to say it if plumbers were a company it would be the largest 00:52:35.040 --> 00:52:43.520 company exactly like what which has absolutely 00:52:39.599 --> 00:52:46.319 nothing to do with anything um like 00:52:43.520 --> 00:52:49.440 Austin Austin Evans for example had his uh turned off temporarily because it 00:52:48.280 --> 00:52:55.599 wasn't available in the state that he was living in all of a sudden like it can just it can just happen things can 00:52:52.640 --> 00:52:59.480 go wrong and like I I see that that's interesting and then there this bolded 00:52:57.319 --> 00:53:03.040 point there is no system for protecting creators many of whom have no experience 00:53:01.200 --> 00:53:08.200 in any industry let alone the notoriously Cutthroat entertainment 00:53:05.480 --> 00:53:12.839 industry um and there's no centralized organization representing creators so it 00:53:10.760 --> 00:53:19.480 it goes on to say so I'm creating one to which I'm contributing $50,000 which is 00:53:15.400 --> 00:53:21.880 coming from VidCon um which is and then 00:53:19.480 --> 00:53:24.720 it like it even says obviously VidCon benefits hugely from the explosion in 00:53:23.400 --> 00:53:29.520 online content and we're looking for ways to give back also known as invest 00:53:26.640 --> 00:53:33.960 in it and uh blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah Laura who has worked 00:53:31.559 --> 00:53:39.240 with VidCon since the first year will be the executive director uh so here are 00:53:36.359 --> 00:53:46.160 some things it wants to do most of which I think are pure nonsense help the Press 00:53:41.960 --> 00:53:46.880 talk intelligently about online video so 00:53:46.160 --> 00:53:51.000 I mean so what you want to be tube filter 00:53:49.400 --> 00:53:58.880 or something like you just want to be a publication that that other online press 00:53:54.920 --> 00:54:01.480 can sorry can someone can someone call 00:53:58.880 --> 00:54:05.880 Creator Guild when they're trying to like if maybe investigative journalism 00:54:03.480 --> 00:54:10.960 of some sort is doing they want be a um okay anyway so 00:54:09.599 --> 00:54:16.240 share stories and strategies from professional creators that will be available only to members why would 00:54:14.000 --> 00:54:19.520 these be available only to members if the idea is that you actually want to be 00:54:18.079 --> 00:54:23.160 helpful collecting stories and strategies from professional creators is 00:54:21.280 --> 00:54:27.359 not real freaking difficult we've had plenty of uh professional creators on 00:54:25.440 --> 00:54:32.839 for example the w show as guests in the past um increase transparency about what 00:54:31.079 --> 00:54:36.559 creators do and don't receive from MCN advertisers agencies and managers this I 00:54:34.880 --> 00:54:41.640 can see being valuable but this could be done in a handful of blog posts this 00:54:39.319 --> 00:54:44.880 doesn't need an organization act as a bridge between creators and platforms 00:54:43.359 --> 00:54:49.240 this looks like an opportunity to double dip to me this looks like an opportunity 00:54:46.960 --> 00:54:53.839 to charge platforms for access to the creators you represent I mean this that 00:54:50.960 --> 00:54:58.559 feels an awful lot like an MC what an MC's role was supposed to be and as as 00:54:56.480 --> 00:55:02.680 long as they are serving the Creator's interest 00:55:01.480 --> 00:55:08.920 rather than their own then I guess that's great 00:55:05.440 --> 00:55:10.640 but again I don't see that being a 00:55:08.920 --> 00:55:14.240 full-time job and I don't see that being something that a Creator should have to pay for because that's where we're 00:55:12.920 --> 00:55:19.559 getting there are some things here that I think are great um for example sample 00:55:17.240 --> 00:55:23.599 contracts for sponsors managers MCN merchandise and agencies would have been 00:55:21.720 --> 00:55:30.720 phenomenally helpful for us a few years ago um but some of this stuff just 00:55:27.200 --> 00:55:33.760 doesn't mean anything Foster diversity 00:55:30.720 --> 00:55:37.000 in online video content how are you 00:55:33.760 --> 00:55:41.280 going to do that online video content is 00:55:37.000 --> 00:55:43.280 quite possibly the most diverse video 00:55:41.280 --> 00:55:49.200 platform available and has absolutely nothing preventing it from being more 00:55:45.520 --> 00:55:50.720 diverse as video equipment and access to 00:55:49.200 --> 00:55:56.520 good enough internet and computer hardware to create videos becomes more 00:55:53.520 --> 00:55:59.039 and more affordable as time goes on that 00:55:56.520 --> 00:56:03.640 you have absolutely zero impact on this so it just it reads like a bunch of 00:56:00.720 --> 00:56:07.680 lists of things that sound great on paper and for some reason cost $60 a 00:56:06.319 --> 00:56:12.359 year per Creator we figure you can spare $5 a 00:56:10.480 --> 00:56:15.039 month for this and if we can't provide enough value to make that investment 00:56:13.559 --> 00:56:19.680 more than worth it we're just not doing a good 00:56:17.400 --> 00:56:24.920 job the thing that I really hate about this is that everything there the sample 00:56:22.920 --> 00:56:31.799 contracts are a great example could have been done you a few minutes for free as 00:56:29.119 --> 00:56:38.280 like a tab like a drop down on the VidCon website like Creator resources um 00:56:36.599 --> 00:56:42.520 and they've got this board of directors that's a bunch of prominent creators 00:56:40.440 --> 00:56:48.359 Anana is one of them uh they've got an Advisory board that includes uh Casey 00:56:44.359 --> 00:56:50.280 neistat so some some pretty big names um 00:56:48.359 --> 00:56:54.839 for experienced guys like that or if they reached out to guest creators for 00:56:52.280 --> 00:57:00.799 example YouTube asked me to create a number of years ago uh a segment on 00:56:57.839 --> 00:57:05.440 finding your Niche that I happily did lots of content creators would be happy 00:57:02.559 --> 00:57:11.280 to create advice for uh for smaller creators um there is no reason that $60 00:57:10.000 --> 00:57:15.319 a year needs to be charged and the thing that really bugs me about it is that I 00:57:13.280 --> 00:57:19.599 can really see it working and I can see it working on the people who we really 00:57:17.319 --> 00:57:27.119 shouldn't be taking money from like I've attended uh three Google workshops now 00:57:23.200 --> 00:57:29.480 uh like Google YouTube run workshops for 00:57:27.119 --> 00:57:34.280 um existing and want toe content creators and those guys are really 00:57:32.079 --> 00:57:39.760 impressionable and quite frankly A little vulnerable um they they just need 00:57:37.240 --> 00:57:44.039 basic information a lot of which can be accessed through YouTube's own tools 00:57:42.400 --> 00:57:50.359 that are built right into the video dashboard and the main thing totally is 00:57:47.440 --> 00:57:53.520 the contracts yep contracts are scary not a lot of people understand them 00:57:51.760 --> 00:57:59.920 because they're written in a kind of weird way and a lot of them get thrown 00:57:55.960 --> 00:58:03.760 at really fast and yeah I don't feel 00:57:59.920 --> 00:58:06.280 like you need a membership for that um 00:58:03.760 --> 00:58:11.599 so especially you don't need a membership in my mind for joining a 00:58:08.920 --> 00:58:18.920 guild that talks about a lot of these things but actually doesn't have any 00:58:16.400 --> 00:58:22.640 bargaining power with anyone whatsoever so they're completely 00:58:21.000 --> 00:58:28.760 powerless they're taking your membership fee and they offer these sort of vague 00:58:26.839 --> 00:58:33.880 resources is that you know if we're not doing a good enough job then I guess 00:58:30.440 --> 00:58:37.880 don't buy it anymore 00:58:33.880 --> 00:58:39.200 um yeah so what happens uh anyway so I 00:58:37.880 --> 00:58:42.640 had actually told myself when I read this article uh that I wasn't going to 00:58:41.240 --> 00:58:46.359 bother talking about it because I just didn't want to give it any publicity but 00:58:44.640 --> 00:58:52.240 instead I've decided to talk about it because I don't like it um I think it's 00:58:50.160 --> 00:58:58.039 crappy I think all these resources are out there I know because I've been 00:58:53.720 --> 00:58:58.039 through this as well and um 00:58:58.160 --> 00:59:03.880 yeah yeah and floating Cactus puts it um 00:59:01.680 --> 00:59:08.480 puts it well it's just another euphemism for Union except that the key difference 00:59:06.000 --> 00:59:12.720 here is that a union actually has collective bargaining power yeah which a 00:59:10.480 --> 00:59:17.079 guild does not 00:59:14.520 --> 00:59:23.400 so there you go I really don't like it 00:59:20.599 --> 00:59:27.960 um let's move on to our next topic oh this is sort of a sort of a scandal 00:59:25.559 --> 00:59:34.799 original article here is from Tech PowerUp allegedly MSI and ASUS send VGA 00:59:32.240 --> 00:59:37.559 review samples with higher clocks than retail 00:59:42.240 --> 00:59:47.280 cards so I think it's not just that um I 00:59:45.799 --> 00:59:50.640 don't know how many different notes we have on this but I was scrambling 00:59:48.880 --> 00:59:58.039 researching this as fast as I could before we went on the show and if I saw 00:59:53.079 --> 00:59:58.039 correctly they're actually different um 00:59:59.440 --> 01:00:08.480 bioses and like some cards will have like OC mode and len2 mode and all that 01:00:05.839 --> 01:00:13.319 stupid crap that you should just well L2 mode on that Kingpin card was useful cuz 01:00:11.119 --> 01:00:19.280 remember it circumvented all the ocp crap yeah no one circumstance they 01:00:16.319 --> 01:00:23.200 should just all be always on well I think that's an invid restriction so 01:00:21.039 --> 01:00:26.359 that's a whole deeper we're back to we're back to Greenlight at that point 01:00:24.799 --> 01:00:33.319 which I've talked about extensive in the past and I hate but is sort of I also 01:00:29.480 --> 01:00:35.599 understand why it exists yeah um anyways 01:00:33.319 --> 01:00:41.000 so like some people are saying that oh it's just they're they're shipped preset 01:00:38.319 --> 01:00:45.319 in one of those bigger modes mhm so like it would it would show up in ln2 mode or 01:00:43.240 --> 01:00:49.160 OC mode or whatever uh some people are saying that they're a custom BIOS that 01:00:47.280 --> 01:00:54.680 have cranked settings above what you can normally have so consumers have access 01:00:52.760 --> 01:00:58.599 this is from the tech PowerUp article to the higher clock speed profile 01:00:56.480 --> 01:01:04.039 but only if they install a custom app by the companies and enable that profile 01:01:01.880 --> 01:01:09.000 something that quite frankly flies in the face of the advice that's been being 01:01:06.559 --> 01:01:13.480 given by Tech Publications for the last decade which is don't install AI Suite 01:01:11.000 --> 01:01:17.599 don't install any random applications because for the most part all they do is 01:01:14.839 --> 01:01:24.240 bog down your system um so to have the product require that application from an 01:01:21.039 --> 01:01:28.000 end user but not for a reviewer uh feels 01:01:24.240 --> 01:01:30.799 a little skevy some of this I worry 01:01:28.000 --> 01:01:36.599 about because of GPU boost yep I've done videos on that before and this is 01:01:33.319 --> 01:01:39.160 honestly getting close to the margin of 01:01:36.599 --> 01:01:42.960 error kind of problem with GPU boost where cards just come out at different 01:01:40.720 --> 01:01:48.319 speeds yep but it came out that these were predefined settings not just the 01:01:46.440 --> 01:01:53.559 card acting differently and it would be very difficult for the average reviewer 01:01:50.960 --> 01:02:00.160 even a very Vigilant one to notice these differences so in the case of the DT x 01:01:56.119 --> 01:02:01.079 1080 gaming X from Gigabyte the wait did 01:02:00.160 --> 01:02:08.640 I say Gigabyte no I think that's an MSI card 01:02:04.039 --> 01:02:10.599 sorry gaming gaming X I think that's MSI 01:02:08.640 --> 01:02:19.079 y yeah MSI sorry sorry sorry I don't know G1 gaming I know I 01:02:14.319 --> 01:02:24.000 know yeah it's hard um the difference is 01:02:19.079 --> 01:02:26.760 1822 MHz boost versus 1847 MHz 01:02:24.000 --> 01:02:32.599 boost that can totally feel like a GPU boost that's a 1% difference that 01:02:30.920 --> 01:02:36.359 basically really doesn't make much of a difference at all but would be a 01:02:34.760 --> 01:02:40.039 difference between what a reviewer would see versus what an end user would see 01:02:37.920 --> 01:02:43.760 without the utility um so it really does feel like splitting hairs a little bit 01:02:41.559 --> 01:02:49.880 to people like me who don't really overclock video cards anyway but to a 01:02:47.119 --> 01:02:54.799 consumer who shops yeah based on a review that compares a bunch of GTX 01:02:51.440 --> 01:02:56.200 1080s I mean you and I I I don't even 01:02:54.799 --> 01:03:02.039 look at that stuff anymore because it's like well if I really wanted to turn it up another 20 MHz I would yeah myself I 01:03:00.559 --> 01:03:05.599 just go with what I know has a good warranty what I think looks cool and 01:03:03.880 --> 01:03:09.680 what has water block compatibility um if this has been going 01:03:07.760 --> 01:03:15.000 on for a long time I wonder if it is related to why I ended up making all 01:03:12.160 --> 01:03:19.480 those GPU boost videos because I do specifically remember having a card and 01:03:17.359 --> 01:03:22.720 being like this is running not at all what it says it's supposed to run at 01:03:20.920 --> 01:03:28.160 interes so sending out emails but I'm not entirely sure so this is interesting 01:03:25.440 --> 01:03:32.000 I actually first heard about this uh when someone posted on my Facebook post 01:03:30.559 --> 01:03:37.000 or on my TW actually I've been engaging a lot more on Facebook I've been reading a lot more stuff now that I realized it 01:03:35.520 --> 01:03:44.680 reaches so many more people I'm like oh well maybe I should spend some time on this platform anyway um someone asked 01:03:41.319 --> 01:03:46.960 when I posted a picture of an EVGA 1070 01:03:44.680 --> 01:03:51.119 hey there's this Scandal is EVGA doing it I have a response from Jacob and I'm 01:03:49.760 --> 01:03:56.079 not going to include what he said about the other companies because you know 01:03:53.799 --> 01:04:02.039 that's a private conversation but what he has to say about EVGA is that we are 01:03:59.440 --> 01:04:05.640 not doing it EVGA cards have always been exactly the same Hardware in BIOS as 01:04:04.000 --> 01:04:11.279 production so no need to worry there smiley face and therefore our 1070 01:04:08.079 --> 01:04:14.160 review will move on Jacob is a good guy 01:04:11.279 --> 01:04:18.240 he would not lie to me um there's a lot of people in the industry that I would 01:04:15.680 --> 01:04:23.880 not necessarily say that about but Jacob salt of the earth if he says it I 01:04:20.839 --> 01:04:24.599 believe it um so there you go EVGA is 01:04:23.880 --> 01:04:27.720 not involved uh 01:04:27.760 --> 01:04:33.680 um okay let me have a look 01:04:35.039 --> 01:04:42.960 um um yeah I don't really see anything else that seems that important here so I 01:04:42.000 --> 01:04:47.960 those all the ones I really wanted to talk about pretty much 01:04:45.160 --> 01:04:51.559 it this news is a little bit late but if we just want to talk about something 01:04:49.000 --> 01:04:56.359 else at all uh nostras finally had their meeting with 01:04:52.599 --> 01:04:59.119 blizzard really and like basically all 01:04:56.359 --> 01:05:02.839 the top heads of whatever at World of Warcraft and the CEO of Blizzard were 01:05:01.079 --> 01:05:07.000 all in on the meeting and the meeting ended up going like multiple hours over 01:05:05.119 --> 01:05:11.480 time okay and apparently they were taking a lot of notes and had a lot of 01:05:08.400 --> 01:05:14.760 interesting inside metrics and stuff um 01:05:11.480 --> 01:05:16.839 they didn't lose the code that was not a 01:05:14.760 --> 01:05:22.599 thing that happened they still have the code there's certain because of like how 01:05:20.440 --> 01:05:27.039 versioning software Works they can go back and find it there's certain things 01:05:25.079 --> 01:05:29.680 that they don't H I don't remember without going back to the post I don't 01:05:28.279 --> 01:05:35.359 remember exactly what it is so there's still some rebuilding that has to be done but they're not like missing the 01:05:32.599 --> 01:05:40.599 entire game right which was the original story yes yeah that no one bought no I 01:05:38.359 --> 01:05:46.000 actually I thought it was possible like thinking back we don't have original 01:05:43.160 --> 01:05:51.720 footage or even exported video foot well hold on stuff can happen you a hard 01:05:48.680 --> 01:05:53.839 drive can die right but again small 01:05:51.720 --> 01:05:56.960 company versus big company have Version Control and they would have that stuff 01:05:55.119 --> 01:06:01.799 in multiple places big company that might have determined that the 9 years 01:05:59.720 --> 01:06:06.640 ago build is not that important anymore it's possible I I doubt it I 01:06:05.359 --> 01:06:11.880 just because like what if they wanted to do some weird valve lost an entire 01:06:09.359 --> 01:06:11.880 episode of 01:06:14.319 --> 01:06:21.039 halflife oh man uh sorry anyway 01:06:19.319 --> 01:06:25.640 apparently like they're not really saying anything yet or whatever I kind 01:06:23.240 --> 01:06:31.119 of expect if anything gets announced it wouldn't be before BlizzCon and that's 01:06:27.720 --> 01:06:33.279 not for a while so yeah um but 01:06:31.119 --> 01:06:38.400 apparently it was a very positive overall meeting okay well that's good to 01:06:35.920 --> 01:06:44.119 hear and like devs in the meeting were being like yeah if it was back I would 01:06:40.839 --> 01:06:48.599 play so o that was kind of interesting 01:06:44.119 --> 01:06:51.440 that's telling yeah that's like ouch 01:06:48.599 --> 01:06:55.760 yeah oh ow okay so I think they might actually want 01:06:53.680 --> 01:06:58.920 to do it but I think they wanted to get the movie out of the way right they 01:06:57.480 --> 01:07:05.079 wanted to get the launch of Legion out of I don't mean like wanting to get it out of the way they wanted those things 01:07:01.680 --> 01:07:06.319 to right walk their course first yeah 01:07:05.079 --> 01:07:12.880 and then I think if they launch it anywhere it would probably be blue speaking of which you saw the movie 01:07:10.000 --> 01:07:18.119 yeah okay I have seen multiple videos online of people saying that it sticks 01:07:15.559 --> 01:07:22.520 to the lore really well what book did you 01:07:19.160 --> 01:07:23.799 read not the ones I read and I'm going 01:07:22.520 --> 01:07:27.400 to exit no it's fine I'm not going to talk 01:07:26.119 --> 01:07:33.799 about it for too long I've been thinking about making a video on this I just don't even know where to start like hit 01:07:31.960 --> 01:07:37.920 it hit it Warcraft movie is highly topical to our 01:07:35.559 --> 01:07:42.240 viewers I just like he already convinced me not to watch it okay medivh oh I 01:07:41.000 --> 01:07:48.520 don't want to give spoilers but like there's books and games already out so 01:07:44.079 --> 01:07:50.480 is it okay I think oh okay uh you know 01:07:48.520 --> 01:07:54.400 what no hold on hold on hold on I want to hear from the audience we can just 01:07:52.520 --> 01:07:58.960 give people the opportunity to tune out you know what talk about one thing 01:07:56.920 --> 01:08:02.279 before they enter this poll let's do this let's let's can the L show and 01:08:00.720 --> 01:08:06.240 let's do a short after party today let's talk about the Warcraft movie I want to 01:08:03.720 --> 01:08:10.599 do one more topic uh before we before we cut the show uh Microsoft considered 01:08:08.200 --> 01:08:16.239 launching and upgraded Xbox one this year uh Phil Spencer came out and 01:08:12.559 --> 01:08:19.199 basically said um yeah we could have 01:08:16.239 --> 01:08:23.239 done an upgraded Xbox but uh no no it's still working see it's just not changing 01:08:21.440 --> 01:08:29.080 scenes cuz I think I like misclicked kind of weird oh I moved it that's 01:08:26.440 --> 01:08:35.279 good um actually this the stream system been like totally fine no weird behavior 01:08:32.839 --> 01:08:39.640 in xplit no weird Behavior surged the power SP at some point I don't know man 01:08:38.000 --> 01:08:43.080 um so Phil Spencer basically said at an interview at E3 that the company 01:08:41.000 --> 01:08:46.839 seriously considered launching a new Xbox One with upgraded Hardware this 01:08:44.679 --> 01:08:51.319 year but decided against it is instead launching a smaller version of the Xbox 01:08:48.799 --> 01:08:56.719 One the Xbox One S they're focusing on a 4K ready console to release next year 01:08:53.880 --> 01:09:01.279 code name Scorpio which has like actually a pretty crazy GPU in it well 01:08:59.520 --> 01:09:06.560 that's prob that's probably why they didn't launch it this year because 01:09:02.560 --> 01:09:08.880 honestly to me the console refresh has 01:09:06.560 --> 01:09:13.199 been a waiting game from the beginning I I was talking to John about it and like 01:09:11.759 --> 01:09:17.520 no I haven't read anything about this anywhere I have no like solid actual 01:09:15.920 --> 01:09:23.920 reason to think this I'm just kind of wondering if it's a s so 01:09:21.679 --> 01:09:28.040 1070 because the memory bandwidth matches up and the teraflops on the chip 01:09:26.799 --> 01:09:32.279 is very close they said six I think in the 1070 01:09:30.759 --> 01:09:37.520 is 6 point something it could also be they could 01:09:34.440 --> 01:09:39.679 also be going back to AMD um AMD didn't 01:09:37.520 --> 01:09:45.759 say anything about it but man they were smug as a be in a bit okay I've invented 01:09:44.080 --> 01:09:50.239 that saying no one no one ever said that before but AMD was pretty smug about 01:09:48.440 --> 01:09:55.840 their console leadership when I was at the Polaris launch event still so I I'm 01:09:53.120 --> 01:10:01.560 I am guessing I why I got excited about that is because 01:09:59.199 --> 01:10:06.159 he uh Phil Spencer whatever was talking about VR yeah I almost included in my 01:10:03.960 --> 01:10:09.440 Oculus Rift thing but I didn't bother and uh the PlayStation VR stuff that's 01:10:08.159 --> 01:10:15.800 coming out they're both pushing towards VR and SMP would help them a lot 01:10:12.760 --> 01:10:18.320 right so I thought that made sense but I 01:10:15.800 --> 01:10:24.520 guess not so basically in a nutshell I think I think Microsoft by waiting out 01:10:21.159 --> 01:10:28.040 Sony a little bit longer has effectively 01:10:24.520 --> 01:10:30.080 won the Next Generation the 4K 01:10:28.040 --> 01:10:36.920 generation console war they're going to be so much more powerful and uh and Nick 01:10:34.440 --> 01:10:41.000 is standing there because we never actually did our sponsor spots for uh 01:10:39.360 --> 01:10:47.640 this
