and live the entire office is under
construction only 5 minutes late and
even though he's not here it was because of Linus's computer yeah it's like 28%
Windows updates yeah yes Linus's laptop has been sitting here trying to Windows
update since before 4:30 and then now
Nick actually has you guys can't see it but he has two laptops one of which just
got factory reset so he's going through the like Windows set up and the other
one which has been stuck doing a Windows update for like uh probably I'd estimate
around like 11 minutes now 10 11 minutes
so uh yeah that's pretty cool anyways
welcome to the W show we have a few topics that aren't uh waiting for
laptops to work they are Apple's iMac
Pro is rumored to be using server grade Intel processors we have benchmarks for
AMD's epic processor and pricing apparently so that's pretty cool also
OnePlus 5 gets CAU cheating at benchmarking programs this is not new
well okay it's new for the OnePlus 5 but this is not new for phone manufacturers
I'm not saying that's okay for OnePlus I'm just saying you know uh the NSA has
opened a GitHub account and posted a bunch of uh programs there so that's
that's interesting pretty pretty interesting um interesting is a good way
to put that but yeah we will talk about that and more after this brief intro woo
like I I literally just want to have twitch chat open
and I I just no ni not allow you know
yeah you're not allowed to have ttch I'm not allowed to see the
fpsa Y Synergy share your mouse and keyboard
on multiple computers comic Bento use off code LD to get 7 bucks off of comic
Bento today and visit freshbooks.com
slw if you want to like stuff that has to do with freshbooks which is like
doing the accounting of a small business and stuff
anyways while you're still I have two
computers both have slightly different blue screens on them
now hey hey okay he's finally into his
first computer and we are into our first topic I'm going to post the link in the
NOP he is not into his first computer
never mind I'm going to post the link in the chat oh also I think I'm supposed to
set this thing to live that would be a good idea come on
buddy I'm going to go find a third computer I'll be back okay bye Nick um
apparently YouTube has their server had
a temporary problem and couldn't do what I asked it to do and I've been told to
try it again in a few minutes so the announcement video is not going to be up
yet if you guys want to remind me Focus the
camera hey Max apparently I'm out of
focus sorry okay so we will we will work on
that also my name is not lonus I'm sitting in Linus's position today uh I
will be luke today and the person sitting over here will be Nick light
once he returns uh I mean I think it looks good to me but I'm pretty bad at
that stuff
so your sound is odd yes okay so that is
because there is currently construction going on like 30 40 50 feet give or take
which person we're talking about directly behind where the camera is and
this mic is not super narrow range so it
can probably uh pick all that
up how's the focus now guys now it's in Focus okay cool good job Max thank you
very much good job Max thanks thanks Max
see you later wow later all right
cool um if if I can get Google servers
to start working at least at least now like Flo
plane isn't the only one having issues with uploads this has been a great show so
far is this is this going to have a title now okay so if we want to kind of
jump in I posted the link into the chat what we're talking about right now is
the rumor is the rumor yes there's a rumor that it's going it's going to it's
it's posted on oh Mom don't call me right
now so what this rumor means is that the
iMac Pro would be offering server level xon processors their code name isn't
going to be sky like X or kbl lake or
whatever it's going to be pearly which is interesting it's going to use LGA
2066 socket um yeah so no ryzen no epic
for iMac Pros I kind of sort of actually
saw this coming I think a lot of people probably did Apple's been using um Intel
processors for a very long time one kind of neat thing is that the blog also
noted that the iMac Pro will feature an ARM processor for like a secure section
of the computer a secure Enclave similar to that of the MacBook Pro with the
touch bar um this secure Enclave will add additional layer of security to the
mac and it suggests that there should be Touch ID built into the keyboard as well
which is actually pretty cool that's cool they wasn't there either like a
rumor or something about a Microsoft
keyboard that also has Touch ID enabled so it would just be pretty much same thing oh I thought there was one from
last week I don't remember that
personally wow I hate I hate Edge so
much there we go that video has been fixed which is
good um YouTube is having some weird server issues oh
Bing there we go we're good there okay yeah so that's actually pretty much all
we have to say there just a rumor about what might be on the next iMac Pro um
I'm going to do a straw pole I want to see what you guys
think um what processors you guys think should have been in there
um let's go wow this is lagging a lot
let's go with um
epic or
2066 socket
Intel spoiler alert it's going to be
epic that they want I just I just want to see spoiler alert I just want to
see don't insult AMD that much when did I insult
AMD people are so weird sometimes yeah I don't know okay anyways next topic cuz
that one was sort of boring epic benchmarks and pricing uh we're going to
go to the anch article which I will share in the chat give me one quick
second this is the new 7,000 series
CPUs I'll jump back to that straw pole in a little while after we've read
through this article I'm going to bring this up on
screen so yeah fairly big news um it's
it's pretty cool that they're actually showing charts and stuff of it which is
nice it's going to be interesting seeing the Epic
actually doing stuff this is is a whole bunch of different SKS so these are like
probably all the Epic 7,000 series SKS so everywhere from 7601 to the
7251 with the 7601 having 32 cores and
64 threads I know a lot of people have already seen this but the pricing
information is here as well so that 32 core 64 thread one is going to be you
know like around $4,000 is a little little little bit
rough um quite a bit it's quite a bit yeah so
h a little bit brutal but oh well down
to the bottom end of that the Epic 7251
is only going to be around $400 though so you've got a pretty massive spread in
terms of price but that does go again from eight cores 16 threads to 32 cor 64
threads so I'm not too surprised I have found this whole like giant War that's
going on right now between like I9 and
epic and all this kind of stuff pretty interesting because of the percentage of
people that are very viciously engaged in the war that will actually even
purchase any of it yeah and like okay
this was something that kind of I don't know I saw and I was like what are you
even saying um but some people were like oh why didn't you mention epic at all in
your core I9 video and it's like well epic isn't a core I9 competitor thread
Ripper is right yeah so like why would we mention a server processor in a core
I9 video well they're both they're both little broad spectrum too and like
people will use them for both things so I I sort I sort of understand both sides
um but yeah we also don't have it yeah
yeah yeah which is slightly problematic but you're right like it's you know like
with most things it's a lot of people who are never going to buy either of
them um debating not to say that that's
bad because we all know just like in the Auto industry stuff that you see on the
top top end stuff is going to trickle down into the consumer grade prod in a
number of years um but yeah it's just kind of kind of interesting going to
shrink us a little bit here so here's the disruptive one socket performance
stuff that's actually pretty cool I I always worry about getting benchmarks
directly from companies instead of being able to look at a wide spectrum of like
different reviewers yeah uh cuz that's my favorite way to do it if I get like a
whole bunch of different banks of numbers cuz people can run different settings on their test people can run
different uh gaming benchmarks people can run different whatever so you get a
mass of everyone's different numbers and look at the average and then you get
whatever you want but um this is actually pretty cool these are running
against a number of 2x so you have you have like two processors from the Intel
side of things which is pretty crazy and it's still performing higher than that
so I don't know I'm I'm very excited it's going to be sweet like I'm excited
to see both Threadripper and epic in action so I am personally stoked um but
that's about all I can say right now because who knows yeah yeah we need to
get it in office and like you never know because what was there was something
around the uh the most recent actual
launch of an AMD processor I don't remember exactly which Benchmark it was
but there's a huge amount of controversy over like how they ran it and how much
RAM was in each system and like how many channels they were using for the
different RAM and all that kind of stuff so when you get to the reviewer level
there's hopefully more transparency in terms of like how their setups are being
ran what their different settings are and you can get a way broader Spectrum
with having a whole bunch of different reviewers and a whole bunch of different
people that actually went out and bought it all testing it which is super cool
yeah definitely let me check that straw pull now I actually think I might have
lost the link which I'm pretty sure every you have
it okay so uh do you want to post that
in twitch chat actually yeah sure oh actually uh I not logged in that's fine
I will grab it from you I got it
cool okay great so people wanted an epic processor by
65% versus 35% this is this is interesting I know
like we and probably the majority of you
guys are not the target audience for an iMac Pro um so they probably don't care
also this is going into like deep Partnerships that have probably been
worked on for a long time um who knows
if Apple even knew the the Epic was coming I have no idea but like it's
interesting to see how the Market's shifting because I bet you if you asked
this well I guess there wouldn't have been competition but it's it's just fun
to see this war happening I guess is kind of what I have to say because
seeing a poll like this hopefully some
people from different brands and from different companies see this and go oh
interesting maybe I should put maybe not epic necessarily but AMD processors at
some tier depending on whatever product I'm making yeah into my device cuz
people are wanting it it's nice that it's actually a conversation again yes
where there's actually the question of should we use Intel or AMD yeah and now
that we have my like biggest worry leading up to this whole thing was like
oh my goodness this sounds like a huge amount of work but now we have all the
writers and they can do the work so I'm actually very excited this is an
interesting time I I what I really want to see is more polls like this I want to
host more polls like this on W show and I want more people to talk about it on
the forums and stuff not that it isn't being talked about a lot um but cuz Yeah
the more the word goes out the more it'll actually be put in stuff and
that's exciting most definitely going to move
on to the next topic it's probably enough about that
for now OnePlus 5 gets caught cheating at benchmarking programs so this has
happened in the past I believe with Samsung and probably a few other people
as well I think it's fair to say probably most if not all phone
manufacturers at this point so the OnePlus 5 received about a 5% boost in
performance achieving the highest geek pinch four scores of a Snapdragon 835 to
date instead of dropping to 0.31 GHz
when there was a 0% load the OnePlus 3T
score uh cores would stay above 0.98 GHz
for the little cores and 1.29 GHz for
the big course
wow yeah that's uh oh jeez H go away okay there we go
that's that's something yeah that's a little
rough oh well like I I don't know I have
been just like when was the last time
that you took like hardcore benchmarking numbers into consideration with a phone
that's another there we go I'm going to do another straw poll actually I'm interested cuz right now for me it's
usability battery life yeah
because like everything that I want to do on my phone even game stuff any like
fairly High tier phone will do completely fine with all of the games that I wanted to play yeah I personally
I literally never look at phone like benchmarks but I am not the target
consumer for that style of information so is this is this in benchmarks that
they were uh running themselves pre-launch and then releasing or is this
uh like a totally Market wide thing like
is the release phone doing this or is this just their benchmarks I'm not sure
if you can check into the post there you don't have access to that okay I'm just
going to finish up this poll real quick let me see if I can get some stuff going
here okay me create the poll and drop it
in the chat
there you go check out that straw pole in the chat I'm interested to see what you guys say battery life
is uh usability is probably my number one most required needs to be really
good feature on a phone then battery life for sure and then it starts getting
to Performance and stuff of course but I'm not entirely looking at benchmarks I
just need to make sure that it can do what I need to do very fluidly that's
kind of what I'm looking for and geekbench itself I have not been
super interested in for quite a while I think um but I'm going to check this
straw poll pretty much immediately and see how this goes so sorta is is the top
result and that's kind of exactly what I expected very important is literally the
lowest result with only 59 votes at 7%
not very is the second highest not at all is the third highest and important
is the fourth highest so very important and important together only get like 25%
of the vote and that's with a very Tech Centric Tech Centric audience yeah so
like I find it interesting that companies would cheat cuz I feel like
you're getting bad PR for cheating but you're not getting a huge amount of good
PR for the 5% of bonus that they got I think it's one of those things that's
like a huge disconnect because um yes
you're 100% correct but I don't think that they have this information or maybe
realize that how unimportant it is so stop cheating in your freaking test stop
cheating it just makes you look bad it's so scummy and then like it's it's
apparently I guess 25% of a tech audience is actually fairly significant
yeah so maybe I get that to a certain degree but yeah you got to remember
that's okay new straw 20 that's 25% of the audience that's going to be the
person who their entire friend group goes to or family group goes to and is
like hey what phone should I get and that person is now saying hey these guys
are shady essentially um so yeah just
don't don't cheat whether it's in phone benchmarks or or anything else in life
just just be a good person things will
happen as they're supposed to happen you
know essentially so I'm making a new straw
poll I'm asking does cheating and phone benchmarks make you dislike a product or
a company just in case any phone companies
saw that last poll that we did and we're like H 25% of viewers think it's pretty
important maybe we should start cheating I'm going to see here because they get
caught like every time I think does cheating and phone benchmarks make you
dislike a product or a company yes or no we're going to keep it pretty simple
this time and I want to see what people this is a straw pull heavy show but you
know what I mean I'm down we're going to review this should do a straw about
doing straw PES we should that would be a do you like us doing straw poles straw
pole yes versus
no there we go good so so some people
don't really care and to be fair I'm
maybe a little bit in that group it'll turn me off on a liking a company a
little bit but not that much but like 70% of people dislike it if you cheat on
benchmarks so they're phone companies I think I would care more if it was
cheating was the outlier it just makes me like distrust
benchmarks for phones in general to be honest like it just makes me go like
okay even more so I don't care about those benchmarks but I I honestly think
that's part of the reason why the previous drop hole that we did was so
heavily in favor of not really caring for years we've all just been like well
they fake them anyway freus anyways yeah
uh Tom Chambers in twitch chat asks is Nick on drugs today and the answer to
that is maybe if being high on life
counts there you go best best best joke
best joke I could ever do heck yeah bud okay moving on the NSA opens a GitHub
account this is actually kind of hilarious I'm going to post this in uh
the twitch chat as well this is from SD Times by the way I'm going to go through
and call out the people who actually posted these
topics uh so this one was posted
by vertical box on the Forum thank you
very much previous one was nerd Slayer one that was the OnePlus 5 topic epic
benchmarks was posted by Tech Fanboy and the Apple iMac rumors was posted by red
round two so the nsa's GitHub account
this is actually kind of interesting yeah here we go so it lists all the
different programs that they actually W
stop it popup ads um all the all the different programs and stuff that they
have on there so Apache acumulo a
key/value store that features serers side programming cell-based access
control ability to scale and stable client API that follows semantic
versioning one of the interesting things in here is some of them are actually
kind of cool um but I wonder if people
are going to actually use them because
of all the bad press that the NSA has had for a while now especially with like
what was the name of that uh ransomware that like was just
around W to cry W to cry having such
heavy ties to like leaked NSA stuff and
having like back doors all over the place and all this kind of not very good
thing and now they're giving out software it makes me kind of wonder if
people are going to be uh a little bit worried about actually using
it uh Java Pathfinder manager jpf mango
a static code analysis tool designed as part of the NASA a Java Pathfinder
project this like this is kind of my
take on this in general and this came from D DGM 1802 in twitch chat who said
NSA GitHub government transparency
and my response is they want you to think that yeah there's going to be an
obscenely huge amount of stuff that they don't put on here and it's probably like
super outdated crap that they're putting on there just speaking as a total Layman
who hasn't looked into it at all my initial assumption is if they're putting
it on GitHub they don't use it anymore and they haven't used it for like two
years yeah cuz like defense software uh
trickling down into the public is a thing that happens just not immediately
so like said this might be slightly older things uh you can think of
internet and GPS as two services that came from those kind of locations they
did release 32 open- Source projects
which is pretty cool and people can pour through the source which is a good thing
uh one of them is DCP a program that reduces the time span needed for making
forensic copies of hard drives for forensic analysis which is cool and
freaky at the exact same time uh maple syrup close to my heart assesses the
security state of an ARM-based device by examining the system register interface
of the processor security enhanced Linux or SE Linux security enhancements for
Android or SE Android and more like I
said there's 32 different things that they released so that is uh both cool
and interesting and transparent and not
transparent and everything else that is confusion and limboe when it comes to
NSA things essentially I don't know
apparently uh if you're done with that topic apparently there was a flash crash
for ethereum yesterday yes did you hear that is it back up so ethereum went down
to like 10 cents yesterday um I don't
know what the ethereum price is now
uh is this it it looks like it popped back a little bit but maybe not entirely
if we can get Jake down here he would totally know um so what it looks like
the twitch chat will also know is this a topic that we have or I don't think so
but somebody was spamming it in twitch chat so I decided to look it up um
essentially what it looks like happened is somebody tried to sell a giant
boatload of ethereum like multi-million dollars worth of ethereum is back at 326
so apparently it just went like
yeah you know a typical lesson in supply and demand right if you flood the market
with something the value is going to drop significantly and with a market
like this where it's so young and and there isn't like a a set standard where
somebody can look at it and go okay there's a large Supply right now but we
know that it's going to have longer term value um like people are going to be
trading it immediately and when they see like oh crap the market has dropped then
more people try to sell due to that and y y y so um just kind of interesting and
and one of the concerns I guess that that you always have to have in mind
with new currencies and cryptocurrencies and all that is like one person can
significantly impact the price of the entire Market yeah to be fair that's
happened with real too though oh yeah um some someone okay not someone a few
people in chat are posting repeatedly in all capitals GTA5 mod thing are you
going to talk about it or no I'm pretty sure we talked about it last week um if
you want the best details on it those are going to be from other sources yeah
and like the mod thing this summation of the mod thing is essentially they were
being dicks um they now sort of went
back a little bit on what they said and they said that they're not going to impact single player stuff but I don't
think that's what people cared about anyway well and at the same time uh so I
read that to add to the GTA 5 thing I
read that in a statement saying that they're not going to attack the single
player stuff but in their actionable items it didn't have anything to do with
that so it's still super sketchy okay cuz I know the the single player mod
stuff came out this week I'm not sure if the action mod items was from last week
or from this week okay um but yeah I I I
think people don't really care because most of the mods that people actually
care about are the multiplayer ones anyway so
like yeah like GTA RP I think was mod I
think it was a super stupid move for them to do hopefully they hopefully they
figure their life out yeah I don't know
but yeah pretty I'm pretty sure we uh talked about it last week I know it's
still developing um but yeah I'm pretty sure we did talk about it last week if
you want to know more there's lots of like actually really good fully detailed
reports I'm sure the GTA 5 subreddit is
all over that um there's there's tons of details on this online uh we don't have
like properly detailed notes in our DOC
for the show today so I don't want to dive into it too deeply and say something wrong uh because that would be
bad so I would I would uh the statement was mostly empty empty legales yeah
exactly so it didn't actually like really mean anything when they're talking about the single player thing
which was kind of sketched
um nobody gives a blank about
multiplayer mods I think they do yeah I'm totally do yeah like modded servers
I think were like a huge thing weren't they they killed single player mods
that's what people are pissed about I'm sure a huge percentage of people are
pissed about single player mods I'm also sure that there's a percentage of people
that are pissed about multiplayer mods um I think a lot of people are just
angry in general because they probably should have been left alone uh because I
haven't heard anyone screaming or upset about the mods existing in the past and
I've heard a huge amount of people screaming and upset about the mods
existing now so okay yeah well there you
go we we'll see how that keeps developing uh speaking of developing
Netflix interactive TV choose your own
Adventures this is yeah I saw that I
don't know man I think it's kind of neat I don't really know what to think about
it outside of that um it's kind of Neo burrito yeah I know I watched I think
the the person that has the KE sake to
this shirt Philip def Franco we talked about it in a video I think it was him
that I was watching said that he thinks it's super cool because he used to like
Choose Your Own Adventure books right and now he can like relive that with his
son by doing Choose Your Own Adventure Netflix stuff I don't know how well it's
going to work um apparently the first one is called puss and book as in like
the Puss and Boots character um trapped in an epic tale it's debuting uh it says
today but I don't really know when this was posted so there we go
uh three days ago so it's it's up now if
you want to go do a Choose Your Own Adventure on Netflix you can do that
that's a thing with puss and book it's a it's an interesting direction for them
to go into I just like I don't know it's
one of those things where I think the experience is probably so much better
with a book
um and it's another like dumbing down of
entertainment step um that we seem to be
taking in the past few years but it's it's cool and you know the perfect
example is like you said with Philip DeFranco where he wants to go through it
with his son like I think that's an excellent use case I just think that
it's an extremely limited genre but then again I would also say that YouTube toy
content and kids content is probably an extremely limited genre and it's
literally the most successful thing on the platform so maybe I'm just stupid
I'm I'm not afraid to admit that little bit of an interesting tidbit here uh
most TV experiences and the latest iOS
devices should it should work on uh though not its own site and Apple TV
isn't compatible either nor are Android smartphone or tablets but support for
these platforms could come down the road I guess wait what yeah so it can their
own website Android devices and Apple tv
it doesn't work on on but so what does it work on iOS iOS devices and most TV
experiences okay but not Android TV and
not Apple TV so like smart TV is the biggest thing I'm sure like tyen and all
that stuff so that's good but you're
still cutting out a gigantic percentage of your consumer you want to ban that
dink
yeah um I'll work on that if you want to keep talking about yeah I mean I don't
think there's a ton else to say um it's
an interesting Direction it's you know I think it's one of those someone said
chomecast I think chomecast would work if you were streaming off an iOS device
I think does chomecast mirror on your device though or does it just broadcast
I think it mirrors on your device so as long as the device that you're using
broad supports it right I think I think
your device would be the important thing there yeah yeah
as long as the interface is still on your device and your device supports it I'm sure it would be fine yeah I think
it'll be okay so we'll see that's interesting I I can't even watch it
because I don't have a smart TV or an iOS device I just use the browser or uh
Android TV so I'm boned yeah so I won't
get to go on a puss in book Choose Your Own Adventure on Netflix I'm sure you're
devastated I'm my life is basically destroyed at this point but if you guys
would like to report back and tweet me or the lineus tech handle and let us
know um wait oh that's his personal one now so I guess tweet me or lonus who
isn't here um and let us know what you think of Netflix interactive TV that
would be cool cuz I don't think he can watch it either no he has an iPhone yeah
cuz I I actually kind of want him to try it cuz he has his kids or whatever yeah
that's a use case that makes sense I think the LG TV he has is not Android so
it could probably work okay yeah all right
yeah yeah I guess we should do the
sponsor stuff now sponsor sponsor spots
there's a lot of Rapid Fire wow yeah
okay cool it was kind of a rapid fire kind of week Synergy I'm going to talk
about Synergy um so I have a video on Synergy if you want to check that out I
don't remember what the title is but if you look up L Synergy you'll probably
find it more magic than or apple wishes their mouse was this magic or something
like that something like that yeah it's kind of weird but if you look up Synergy
it's like a pendant on the end of the title I believe so you can check that out yeah Synergy is a software download
tool that solves the problem of having like a few different computers in one
area hooked up to a few different monitors with a few different sets of
keyboards and mice you can keep the same amount of computers and the same amount
of monitors but just one set of keyboard and mouse and have your keyboard and
mouse automatically transfer between all
the screens no matter what the uh OS is you can go Linux to Windows to Apple
whatever the heck you want and it supports drag and dropping of files and
all this other kind of stuff which is super cool um they have different tiers
of options they have a basic option and a pro option uh it's a one-time payment
for Lifetime access which is which is pretty dope actually pretty damn cool
yeah they have clipboard sharing even drag and drop like I already said you
can set up hot keys to transfer your stuff over you can also have it so like
the the method that I like is that when you get to the barrier between two
systems so if I have like a a Windows PC with two monitors and then a Linux PC
with two monitors uh the monitors that are on the
say Windows PC the barrier between those is fine it just passes right through it
normally like it always would but the second you get to the Linux PC it will
give a little bit of a stutter so it'll pause right at the end and then if I
keep pulling my mouse then it'll jump through I like that just so that it
doesn't jump all over the place too easily uh but yeah you can set all that
up yourself or you can just hotkey yourself over so you can get there and
then jump with your keyboard if you want to be more efficient that's also cool as
well um you can get it for 50% off which
is actually a pretty intense discount at ses.com simless simless seamless
seamless s seamless sure it's sy ym so
there we go but seamless makes the most sense.com
Synergy Linus 18 which is also right
below me right here so there 50% off of a product that
you have for your whole life is pretty cool kind of dank now we're
going to move to Comic Bento comic Bento is your original comic
book subscription box um there's at least $50 of value in each box in terms
of comic books um each box comes with four or five graphic novels it's 25
bucks a month or less depending on the plan that you select there's monthly uh
themes like gnarly 90s and out of retirement this one is girl power I
believe so this one one is girl power
and you get a nice little uh kind of info card that tells you gives you like
kind of a synopsis of all of the books that come in it and uh yeah shows you
everything cool yeah they have a bunch of different books in here one of them
is Marvel um they say it's one of
Marvel's most exciting new teams so there's damsels in excess which is this
one here just pass and because the world still needs Heroes
Champions change the world this is the Marvel one it looks like there's like a
Hulk like person and some X-Men like people in
there and uh the vampire
Huntress she actually looks just kind of like badass yeah y uh Wonderland Clash
of Queens that's uh you know it's a deck of
cards and uh I I can aano this one just
looks like this one looks like she like messes people up yeah like like that's a
pretty insane like axe thing that she's got going on Legit AF
messes here oh it's really hard to point
like this but right about there it's hard to see on that camera but she has
like a crazy like scy looking axe thing which is pretty cool uh it's this this
this weeks months is four soft covers
and one hard cover which is actually pretty cool cool
um if you use offer code LT you can save $7 off of your purchase over at
combo.com one second have to sneeze
bless you in advance come on it's not
happening this is so frustrating also the last one it didn't happen so we're
good is fresh books uh freshbooks is a super simple easy to use accounting
software Cloud accounting software actually which is pretty cool it helps
you track your time with the time sheet function you can manage your expenses by
just taking pictures of your seips and bring it into the uh system which is
pretty cool I can take care of this guy um all
right and if I jump back here it does a
ton of stuff we used it for scrapyard Wars to be able to keep track of how
much money we had left as we were buying parts along the way which was actually
very helpful even outside of a sponsor standpoint it was just very helpful if
you have any questions feel free to reach out to their support staff where you'll speak to a real human uh no phone
tree no escalations no return calls you just call them you get a person that's
it just answers which is pretty fantastic all their functionality of
their desktop app is also in their mobile app as well they understand that
business people are often on the go these days which is cool it makes sense
uh visit freshbooks.com Wan and enter Wan in the how did you hear about a
section when you sign up for a free trial which is very cool also freshbooks
is our title sponsor for LTX 2017 our
Meetup in techcon carnival if you have haven't gotten your ticket yet head over
to the LT official section or get your
ticket through the link below which will be on uh the description for YouTube not
the twitch guys sorry about that but yes if you also want to um sorry one
second yeah sorry no that was the LTX ticket thing that was trying to do but
yeah freshbooks.com techtips enter the W show in the how did you hear about a
section and there you go free trial sounds good the mobile thing is actually
really cool cuz you don't want to like lug around a bunch of extra crap that you don't need necessarily well makes it
so your whole business is just in here yeah super is like actually pretty neat
cuz now almost everything else is just in here as well so there fresh
fix Fresh B Fresh B Fresh B fresh books
build it beautiful wait what there's a rumor that auss colorful
and MSI are releasing gpus for mining
this was posted on video cards I'm not
that surprised with the sheer amount of
like lack of GPU stock that has been going on lately no AMD cards are
anywhere because they're just sold out all over the place which is great for
them that's Perfecto right now um and
it's starting to dip into the NVIDIA stuff as well but I think they've got just more stock of various things yeah
like wasn't this sort of already a thing is it just ASUS is it just that there's
more people doing it or is it like a well there was like weird like minor
appliances and stuff that you could get but these are specific gpus that they're
targeting for it okay so they're saying it's an NVIDIA p
106-100 with 6 gigs of DDR gddr5 uh GPU boost clock of 1708 MHz
memory clock of 8,000 192bit memory interface fairly standard in terms of
that it's like a 1060 I don't see any
actual pictures it says it's based on the GTX 1060 yeah yeah Expedition
series but I don't see any actual pictures about
them it's kind of interesting apparently
they're going to be more efficient than normal GeForce cards in cryptocurrency
by about 30 to maybe 10% depending on
the skew so that's fairly major especially if they're priced the same
yeah so if this is priced the same as a
1060 yeah I don't know I'm I'm curious
if like this is going to be a consumer thing or if you have to like buy like is
this are you going to be able to go to New Egg and buy a p1061 100 or is this
that's the graphics engine so they they'll call it something else okay um
but yeah so apparently they're also making versions on p104 100 which would
be based on like GTX 1080 1070 design so
they probably sell more of those yeah but I'm I'm just curious if this is
something that like say you're just a person more consumer focused yeah you're
just a person who wants to have a minor rig in their garage can you just go buy
one from New Egg or do you need to contact ASUS and go through like a bunch
of rig andar to get one it kind of looks like you'd be able to just go buy it
from neck um because they look like gamer
design they look like end user cards yeah for sure they don't look like just
rack cards that have the most basic shroud on it they can put these are
stylized but I thought the whole point
of these was that they didn't have display outputs so is
that apart from the missing DVI connector okay yeah so this is a like we
think it will look like this concept I I doubt it'll be that gamering personally
but you never know I was expecting more along the lines of this yes that's my
assumption was something closer to a Founders Edition look
yeah but maybe not it's interesting this could be a smart move if ethereum keep
keeps up for a little while this could be a smart move especially cuz they're
not rebuilding the wheel they're just kind of retooling a few cards and
releasing them oh yeah like I think it's a really smart move from the manufacturer's perspective it just
depends on what availability looks like how the pricing shakes out and like is
there going to be resale value in these yeah like cuz right now if people will
know that they were used for mining yeah they'll know that they were used for mining and there if there are no display
outputs then you can't sell them to somebody who just wants a gaming card so
that's good for the for the used Market in that sense because then you won't be
going to Craigslist and buying an rx580 and being like oh did somebody mine with
this I don't know probably like am I going to be able to game on it for a
long time I don't know um but yeah if you're if you're buying
one and let's say you just buy one or two and put them in your uh put them in
your garage just CU you like to mine and
it doesn't end up working out or ethereum crashes or whatever it might be
um can you resell them are you going to get any money for them yeah I don't know
that's going to be interesting cuz like it's it's not not going to be as searched for for gamers yeah cuz Gamers
going be looking for specific names for other different cards well and it's and
people will know that it was used for mining well and the cards don't have display outs yeah so you can't use it
for gaming well I wonder if you could use it as
like no cuz it would be a slightly different card I was going to say an SLI
bridge I was literally yeah just going it's going to be a slightly different card so no uh weird interesting article
apparently this was posted two hours ago so we didn't have it in the doc but a
bunch of people just spammed this and I read the URL and it looked interesting
apparently we're going to jump here now I posted in the chat as well if you guys
want to see that and other people I'm sure are going to keep on posting it CU it was just posted a lot uh hackers
reportedly leaked 32 terabytes of Secret
Windows 10 code Microsoft has declined to comment but to be completely honest
this was posted 2 hours ago yeah so they
probably just they're getting their PR people together yeah they haven't like
it's going to be a long night yeah exactly someone is not sleeping at
Microsoft or probably an entire team of people are not sleeping at Microsoft
right now so expect a better statement later on I don't think this is more of a
decline to comment it's like guys hold on let us figure this out so the files
include much of the code that Windows 10 uses to work with PC Hardware including
built-in USB Wi-Fi and Bluetooth drivers um hackers and other Bad actors
are now free to sift through the data and look for potential vulnerabilities link to Beta archive.com
a site that seeks to preserve and make public software that would otherwise
never see the late of day and it appears to be taken from Microsoft starting in
March wow some people are saying fake news this is a very recent post so take
this with a grain of salt uh it's only been up for 2 hours Microsoft has
declined to comment um I'm not
necessarily saying this is absolutely true someone just linked the um beta
archive article right now um so apparently the folder itself
was 1.2 GB size uh contained 12 releases
each being 100 megabytes uh this is directly from an admin from beta archive
I'm going to bring this up right now um so he's saying that it is very far from
the claimed 32 terabytes so yeah some fake news right there that makes sense
um the registers article said and so did the Business Insider one that we just
read um he said it cannot possibly cover these core source code which I would
agree because it's way too small um he's
saying that first of all let us be clear about a few facts the shared Source kit
folder did exist on the FTP until this
article came to light we removed it from our FTP so it's gone off of beta archive
right now um and listings we currently have no plans to
restore it until a full review of its contents is carried out and deemed
acceptable under our rules that's cool I don't know a ton about beta archive but
that's cool they seem to be doing the right thing there um at this time all we
can deduct is that the r refers to the
large Windows 10 release we had on March 24th which if any of this could should
change we will remove these bills from the FTP and we will happily comply with
any instructions to do so by Microsoft so they're like hold on don't blame us
don't blame us we didn't do it please go away
um yeah I don't know so take all of that with a grain of salt
Not only was the leak not even remotely
anywhere near as big as it was claimed
um but people are still sifting through the data who knows what's actually even going to be there it's an interesting
thing that there was a leak of Windows 10 code at all it could be all
completely meaningless garbage and nothing might come from this uh
Microsoft might go I'm going to punch all you guys in the face and everything
will get really bad who knows I have no idea um someone in the chat was like
Windows 11 leaked there we go yes that's that's exactly that's totally what it
was that's what happened but yeah I would maybe see it
happens every time partway through the show and then it's just going to be
completely borked for me for a sec so you're on your own for a moment um but
yeah I I I would take that entire article softly especially when something
just gets leaked um maybe wait I think
it's good someone posted the uh what was
the name of that site beta beta archive beta archive link right away with an
administrator from that site talking about it directly that's super cool I'm
happy that they reacted really quickly uh pulled the stuff that they had are
reviewing it are actually taking the time to look at things properly I agree
with all of that so I I just found another link around the to go back way
back to near the beginning of the show the ethereum crash um and it's pretty
much what I expected so they said that
uh it dropped about $296 to low of 10 cents in a matter of minutes almost as
quickly as it collapsed the price pronounced back uh at 6:25 a.m. on
Thursday uh ethereum was trading at
$340 per unit um I wonder how many
people got purchases in at 10
cents I don't know but so one of the
main issues is that the way a lot of
people have their stuff set up is that it has Auto Sell when the price reaches
a certain amount so the multi-million dollar order the multi-million dollar
sell order was the initial drop and then as soon as that dropped a bunch of
people's triggers happened and they were like oh crap sell now sell now sell now
so like just not only that initial multi-million dollar uh order but a ton
of other orders flooded the market um so
it it triggered 800 stop losses they said and uh yeah that's that's
essentially what can happen in a in an an unproven Market Per Se or any Market
really um but yeah that's that's kind of interesting to see that uh something
like that can happen so quickly cuz like
if you look at the time graph here I don't have sharing unfortunately but
it's literally just like a few moments and then it was back up yeah like the
overall time graph of a few hours that looks like yeah so this is just from the
span of 2 2:00 p.m. to 400 p.m. it's a
thin line on this graph as it drops down
and then goes back up which is pretty cool Nick's going to post a link in the
chat if you want see I'm not logged in anything he can't so he's totally not
going to do that but what what site is that on uh that was on Business Insider
so if you look up Business Insider flash crash explained yeah you will find the
chart that we're talking about it bounces back up super crazy fast yeah um
I don't anyone even really bothered to stop
mining because it was so fast it was
literally a matter of like a moment it
hit a huge amount of news places um but
yeah ends up being not really that big of a deal so that's probably a good
thing I guess it's it's driven a lot of interest in the computers area it's
driven a lot of interest into how to do all this kind of stuff and it's driven a
lot of purchases of graphics cards which is going to help AMD which is fantastic
cuz like especially AMD cards are just gone which is great that's cool someone
in chat says this was the one one exchange stop talking about it like it's
Global okay I'll stop talking about it like it's Global it was on one exchange
sorry bro it's still kind of a big deal
it's still interesting and significant yeah uh give us one
second okay another interesting topic
ASUS releases xg- c00 c a 10 gig Nick
for under $100 it's $99 so it's
essentially $100 but uh it is it is
technically under $100 which is pretty
sweet I got him already byebye play a
um and that's that's great this is
another thing where like the the more that this price goes down means the more
that people will buy it means the more the price will be able to go down so
it's really good that they have this Nick out there it'll be great once these
are built into boards um I don't know why that random keyboard video is right
there uh if you could not be there that would be good that's fine um this is
this is really exciting I'm sure lonus is probably going to jump on these he
loves his networking stuff um this is a
10 gig Nick for like almost nothing uh one of the difficult things with a lot
of these is going to be getting everything in your network that you need
to have this actually having one or everything in your network that needs to have this actually being compatible with
one um as in like you can even plug this into it um so yeah but under 100 bucks
10 gig Nick that makes it so that like I could definitely see many consumers
being like hm I want just a crazy fast bridge this is like 200 bucks between
these two computers that's not the end of the world I'll just go ahead and do that yep that's not too bad excuse me
sorry give me a quick second
sorry I don't like the fact that people are buying Nicks neither do I I don't
want to be sold it is it is kind of surprising that
people are still buying Nicks in 2017 and I don't even mean like the human
trafficking side of things I mean like actuallyy network interface cards cuz I
thought like a few years ago oh okay we're like done that now on the consumer
side of things not that not that okay to be very clear not the Enterprise side of
things I'm not surprised at all that that's still a thing like multiport like
four port and more ni sure yeah totally
um but like when you build out and spec out a computer including a Nick in it
was like dead for quite a while dead meme yeah and then now like I could
totally see people doing that I wouldn't think it was that weird to see someone be like here's my configuration for my
computer and includes a 10 gig neck if they have the hardware everywhere else
in their Network to support it pretty fancy Dancy um fancy Dancy I
want to show Floatplane but as this is the only one that can see the other
stuff I can't really can you work on getting logged into that uh and then
plug in a thing I can't like to
this I can't you can't do it here no can
we can talk about it your phone
we what use your phone to help you log in uh to this or to this no because it
would take too much time okay um I also don't have access to the one that you
think I have access to apparently oh right that makes sense all right never
mind uh speaking of virtual currency Razer makes a push with a $20 million
investment which is pretty crazy uh Razer has invested close to $20 million
in Malaysia based online payment firm m
o global as part of a push to establish
its virtual currency for gamers in Asia
this is their like z vaa z Vault digital wallet and zold Rewards program that you
guys have maybe heard of um it's it's
kind of interesting uh Razor's Network combined with that of M Mo will allow
users to buy its points at over a million
what at over a million online and retail stores across southeast Asia New Zealand
and Australia what are these even being used for right now cuz last time I
looked at it it was like not a lot so I don't know why they would spend that much I think this has to be something
that's like really big in Southeast Asia
and that we just have no interest in in North America for some reason like I'm
curious if maybe there is yeah I mean look Crossfire that's not a super
popular North American that's like the Korean Counterstrike or something isn't
it so like I I have a feeling that we just have no perception of of how
important this is because we don't experience it here I'm not sure if it's
perhaps due to like uh a lack of availability of of credit cards to some
people or something like that but it seems like um currency cards and stuff
like that are a lot more uh a lot more
widely used in Southeast Asia and these countries that they're targeting with
this investment compared to over here in the states yeah like Mech Warrior online
War Thunder Crossfire Smite I don't know if this is Arc age or
Arch age arcage yeah arcad
yeah yeah yeah I I guess it's
interesting that they bought a company that big to run this yeah I don't know
but they just must be pumping huge sorry who did they buy M Mo online oh yeah
almost $20 million that's kind of yeah that's insane earn Z silver pay with Z
gold so are they just trying to go up against like nexxon or whatever I guess
that's interesting isn't Nexon like one of the bigger ones so Z silver this I
think this is what I knew of cuz you can get like the the razor mug holder and
the mouse and stuff like that Z gold was the one that I wasn't fully aware of cuz
Z silver like you just need huge ridiculous amounts of it but then you
can get some like razor Hardware stuff which is cool I guess yeah but Z gold is
something entirely different yeah so it's just like another digital currency
I guess I'm sure there's people in the twitch chat who use this and know about
it Z razor mug holder yeah RGB mug
holder it's actually pretty neat I'm just going to put that out there it is
pretty cool um Ed has
one I'll take one twitch pleas oh mol points
yeah I love twitch chat it's interesting
I sold someone someone in chat Linux source code leak LOL JK I sold Razer for
$450 and bought Z Vault for $500 I don't even know what that means
but I love it cool good job yeah heck
yeah moving on U this is titled valve
gives Oculus the finger with five finger controller um little little bit of a
sensational title that we have from the internal title people but what up man
this is mine he's wondering if you want more oh no I'm good thank
you um so this this we've seen this before I've even talked about it on the
wow before but I guess this is like an official hey look from from valve which
is cool they have a middle finger cap sense ring finger cap sense and pinky
finger cap sense which is cool that's a lot of different sensing locations
innerface button outer face button these are these on the outside if you can see
my mouse pointer here can I uh
Zoom uh it's going to Auto I'm going to get rid of this sweet there we go so the
outer face buttons are like this one here and this one here you have the
trackpad in the middle still system button right there still not too surprising and then a lot of the sensory
stuff will go around like this part of your hand which is kind of cool it looks
much more similar to um the Oculus
controller than I would probably say the Vive controller but it kind of looks
like an extended version yeah the part
before the ring yeah they get rid of the ring that part still kind of sits in
your hand yeah and then it the the ring part instead of being a ring on the end
kind of wraps around the back of your hand instead which is kind of interesting but that's that's sensory
stuff for all of your fingers cuz there's trigger and then there's the
three fingers that you're using to hold the controller which all have indep
individual uh cap sense there's the
trigger like I already mentioned and then the trackpad the outer face button
and the system buttons so it can tell where all your fingers are all the time
which is that is super cool actually really good for immers very immersive oh
yes it's extremely imersion much wow much wow much wow
that's a dead meme uh speaking of VR
Google VR um YouTube new VR format uh I
don't know this is almost certainly not going
to be heavily targeted at desktop tethered VR experiences like Rift and
five I think they're more expecting people with like the Daydream Daydream
cardboard if that's really a popular thing stillar gear that kind of stuff
even yeah their demo video of it is like here's a phone using the slowmo
guys is uh with a phone and daydream Al
so it's 180 it's not 360 that's interesting but
it sort of makes sense yeah if you're sitting down on the couch or whatever
yeah creators can shoot the videos using any camera with a vr10
certification Google's Daydream team is working with three companies
it's I mean it's kind of neat
um filmmakers will no longer have to hide behind trees I don't think this is
an extremely freeing thing for filmmakers I don't think this is going
to be very widely used you would be extremely uh narrowing your audience and
then the whole video would have to have been shot this way so it's going to be a
lower quality experience for everyone else yeah that isn't viewing in VR it's
a cool thing it's a cool feature to have on the platform for sure
um but I don't know it's it's one of those things that is really one of the
huge limiting factors of VR in general right and that in order for someone to
create like a truly immersive and amazing experience they have to in some
ways like fall on the sword um and just
be like I am executing my Creative
Vision for this game to be VR and I know
it's not going to sell that many units and it would sell a lot more if I
designed it not for VR yeah like someone
someone it's been brought up in the chat a few times now like buy one of these
certified cameras and do a build log with it or do a build guide with it or
do something like that and I hear you I personally think that would be really
interesting but the amount of people that could actually um watch that would
end up hurting that video so much that I
don't think it would do well that could be an interesting test thing for us to do though
yeah if we did a 180° VR build guide
have it be like the only VR computer build guide that there is and like if if
we got like a chest mounted camera or something like that so you could see
around the table all the time or if it just like hovered above the table so you
could kind of look around I'm not sure about positioning of the camera for a build guide that's another thing like
once you actually start breaking it down I don't know how much of a benefit
there is for a build guide to be in v
um because it would still be a fixed Point camera so it's not like you could
lean your head into the computer it's not like you could lean your head to the
other side of the computer it's one fixed Point camera um yeah it's 180 not
360 Channel Super Fun that's a little bit more applicable but then that's a
lot of uh work for a channel super lot of investment for a channel that doesn't
do very well yeah just to be
yeah like like the second you try to get um Luke will you make a VR porn review
no but apparently that's like a huge
amount of the content on the Oculus subreddit now I keep on going like on my
Reddit account looking around scrolling through um I follow like different Tech
reddits and all this kind of stuff and I keep on saying not safe for work posts and I'm like what the heck even is this
I don't see any up there right now no I don't see any up there right now but it's fairly common fake news Luke tell
you man fairly common erroneous fake new
and I I get it it it makes sense that it would be good for that it's just I don't
know it's not my thing
um Tesla creating its own music streaming service that there's a rumor
for that I just like what I don't know why they would do that how could okay
here's my thing how could it possibly be more cost effective to go out and build
this thing and build relationships with all these different record labels and
pay licensing fees to all these different record labels and pay people
to pay licensing fees to all these different record labels and pay people
for support when this stuff goes wrong and pay developers and pay these people
and those people how could it be more cost effective to do all of that than to
just go to Spotify and be like yo dog um we want to get like a a thing so just
like we'll pay you some money and we'll use Spotify and then it's
good which they already offer Spotify like directly through their so I I I did
read one compelling thing where a lot of record labels are concerned with Spotify
getting a monopoly on the market so they are willing to offer competitors to
Spotify better deals and stuff like that in order to like maintain the like
competitive nature of the market and all that stuff but like from a pure dollar
standpoint I don't understand the move by Tesla but then again Tesla is one of
many companies of Elon Musk that has a history of not making any money at
anything that they do for a number of years and then everyone just going holy
crap this is super dope and becoming super successful anyway so maybe I'm
just again I'm probably just stupid and don't understand it would make sense to
me if what they were offering was and I
know this is part of their plan they plan on having a multi-tiered service where they have uh like radio like
things I think they said like Pandora and also Spotify like things on their
own service if they just had a radio like service that they offered as a
default through the car right away and then you
can like yeah pick a platform after that
I could see that making some amount of sense because radio like would be much
easier for them to spin up someone says it's it's about the Tesla AI te I mean
maybe this is just a very shallow look at what they're trying to do maybe
they're trying to create you know a system that recognizes where you're
driving on the road and what the road conditions are like and what what music
would be suited for that and your yes your speed in theic in your personal
preferences and take all these factors maybe they take like heart rate through the steering
wheel so again maybe I'm stupid and
freaking the heck out maybe they start playing more calming music they're like hey dude chill hey that's there going to
be okay don't crash the car as usual there are a lot of people smarter than
me in the world that probably have all this stuff figured out already so that could be pretty interesting it could be
a lot more interesting than I'm giving it credit for like it notices that um
all of a sudden like one or two times a week there's a person of a certain
weight profile that sits next to you and you drive a little bit slower and you
tend to go to like a restaurant and like one other activity and it's like okay
I'm going to start playing more romantic music I'll make this work I'm going to
help you out it's it's Seas your car becomes your wingman you leave a
restaurant at like 11:00 p.m. it starts playing like Berry
White you you you end up going to a uh a
residential address before going home so so it plays like a different music to
try to like cheer you up
yeah it's like no man it'll be okay this actually sounds pretty cool now that
we're now that we're talk yeah now that I I'm I'm not being closed-minded about
it it sounds kind of interesting yeah we'll see what they actually do with it
um I I tend no one listens to Barry White anymore says you hey you know the
car would probably know the age of the person driving it and find like romantic
applicable music to that age group as well mhm so it's everything will be fine
but I don't want Bumblebee as my wingman well unless you drive a yellow Camaro
you won't have bumble bees I think I think with that we might
be kind of done I think I think that's the show ah
there's the power hungry RX Vega is the
uh title of this
one MSI RX why did it auto scroll to the
bottom of the page MSI saying damn RX Vega needs a lot
of power you know what that's probably
fine because power supplies of large capacities haven't really been needed
for a while now so we're just giving them a reason of course's like please
please Let Us sell more ax1200 I please
AMD can Vega please take a lot of power it would help so much U apparently the
frontier boards which again like these are not the most most consumer facing
boards ever um but as the power
consumption I don't think anyone expected it to be lower than Frontiers
which has a board power of 300 WTS air cooled or 375 liquid cooled Edition so
yeah these things yeah they they can they can take the powers there's really
not again there's not a lot to say here this not a super news heavy week um but
we'll see once we get them we do power testing of like all the stuff that comes
through here in terms of cards so you guys will know how much power it takes once it shows up in different load
scenarios which will be good um but yeah
I don't know most computer internal components have been taking less and
less and less and less and less power for a really long time so it's probably
fine I know a lot of people out there that only have like a 500 WT power
supply and barely even use it I don't think it really matters if you take up 200 extra Watts cuz most people who have
bought PCS in the last few years have probably bought psus that are way too
big yeah way too big for their for their needs
it will probably be fine um should we talk a bit about Floatplane without
showing it before the end of the show we can do you know what videos are on there
right now I can I can maybe jump on real quick and look without showing you guys
so there is uh we checked out the cheapest motherboard we could find on uh
on Amazon um oh I'm already logged into the right account hey let's go here we
go so this is flow plane we can see on Tech rookie why can't you use your
phones on planes let's check this out right now look at
lonus he wants to use his thing but he's like uh can I I don't
know whoa that's new hey good job Dennis
I don't think we've green screened like an actual actually that might have been
while Dennis was in Taiwan so good job whoever did that oh it's gone it's gone
now I kind of liked it that's fine is that a paintball
gun why would it that's weird anyways
moving on uh LT old people are the worst technology
then versus now this is actually people like this so far it's hilarious I I'm in
it as uh both an ant and a grandpa yeah
which will be explained once you watch the video it's on full plane you can check it out right now Luke is Linus's
Dad yeah officially that happen Luke is
Linus's dad confirmed on stream I am Linus's daddy daddy daddy such a weird
word it is it is uh the cheapest
motherboard on the market we played games on it which is cool that was that
was an interesting video I checked that out there's uh say hello to the float
playe club float playe blog number one which I actually I guess you know what
I'll show this real quick I'm going to jump into here this is a sneak peek at
what is going to be the front page of the website once we actually launch the
website so uh in the actual text in here
I talk about all what the different sections look like and what we're
planning for those sections and how everything's going to work and yada Yad
y um and there will be more blog posts
like that in the future I have already started writing next week's which will
be like a more succinct like what the heck actually is float playing Club so I
think it'll be good to have something that I can actually link people to uh
instead of trying to reiterate what it is every single time uh we have a tech
quickie on core I 9 fast as possible that might already be on YouTube
actually um uh potentially no it's coming to
YouTube on Monday cool yeah cool there's
a bunch of stuff Flo plane is cool if you want to see what is going to be on
YouTube next week this week you can get
on fling Club right now someone says please tell me you aren't making a
scroll website um a scroll website so
they're saying like a onepage no super
not no don't worry your pretty little head about it that entire thing that you
just saw okay I'm going to I'm going to that's like the like intro to that is
the whole that is the whole front page that's it I wouldn't call it the front
page cuz that's not what like people see when they l in that's a good call so
this whole thing that you can see right now the introduction page which like
this is the top part of it and then this is the bottom part of it and that's
that's that's it that's the whole page is just the introduction page this is
the front page that you see if you are not logged into the website once you are
logged into the website you will see whatever creators you follow and their
most recent posts or videos or whatever um this is just shown if you don't know
what the heck the website is uh it's split into two parts which is like the
login kind of area at the top which is the biggest part because we expect if
you dump here that you're probably just looking to log in because if you're
going to the website and you don't already have an account you're probably going to the website from a creators
link because Flo plane is about the creators
not really just it's not about Discovery yeah um so we don't really expect people
to land here unless they're trying to log in so the main big areas are like
right here which is the learn more which
would just jump you down or start watching which is like the big one
because it's like hey this is supposed to be easy and bright to click on
because this is what we want people actually doing uh a Creator search area
and then just information at the bottom that's it not not a not a one pager so
to comment on a couple things in chat uh Nikki V office takeover yes that is also
y there right now um it's actually pretty pretty funny and uh the ending it
gives you the feels like the real feels like the the the feels te feels um
somebody asks where is Linus's d-wave video so with many things like the
d-wave video um when we're going behind the scenes and checking out like the you
know sensitive information of a company in many ways um we have to get approval
on all that stuff so it has already been edited it's been sent off to the brand
they checked it out they gave us some feedback we're implementing that feedback and then it'll hopefully be com
to Floatplane next week um one more thing are we yeah the
uh quantum computer company yeah yeah the quantum computer company um somebody
asks are we getting new payment options you can stay tuned on that I am we are
working on it working on that a lot and trust me it sucks yeah that
industry sucks yes so very much so
working on it it's not there yet but we're working on it and it'll be there
by the time that we get the the real the real site up and everything um yeah I
think that's that's that's that's that's probably it check out Floatplane it's
been a fun time over there how can we pay for Floatplane uh currently just
PayPal right right now PayPal uh once the site is live we plan on having more
ways I know a lot of people in chat have been saying accept Bitcoin can you take
Bitcoin um we'll probably look into that
we'll see we'll see there are some options that the the main first hurdle
that we're trying to get over is not just being PayPal yes so we're trying to
figure out well Nick again is mainly trying to figure out um how to use how
to be able to accept other things should I like talk about some of the boring
busy things about it like why it's hard sure so one of the main issues is that
there are like there's payment gateways which are the things that accept credit
cards and debit cards and all that stuff and then there are subscription
management tools as well and sometimes
pay gateways have subscription management tools integrated into them but sometimes they don't sometimes they
don't but if you do that then you're essentially locking yourself into using
that payment Gateway Forever unless you
want all of your users to have to re-enter all of their information when
you move to a new one so it's like a massive thing that we're trying to
figure out because it literally could affect Floatplane for the life of it
whatever that ends up being hopefully a number of years um
so that's that's why payment stuff is taking so long because it's a huge thing
and it's something that I am not personally super familiar with and I'm
learning a lot about as we go so uh me neither yeah it's it's it's messy it's
been a learning experience for all I hate PayPal use stripe we're looking
into stripe we're looking into like we're looking into brain tree we're
looking into stripe we're looking into a bunch of different ones lots of lots of
lots of different stuff Luke looks sad I am not sad it's just it's really hot in
here right now it's like yeah I'm like a little and
and the the payment Gateway thing maybe makes me a little sad it's been a it's
been a quite a process where is dead mouse once again um when there
are that's why people have been saying dead mouse okay when there are large
celebrities at play as I would say dead mouse is very much a large there's a lot
of hands on the video there are hands on the video there are hands on rights
releases and image releases and Etc ET ET that we're working through so um that
video is coming soon um TM um but yeah it it'll be there soon
