1
00:00:00,199 --> 00:00:07,600
hilarious it's completely ridiculous obviously the concept was never going to

2
00:00:05,040 --> 00:00:11,360
work it's a miracle they beat four gyms they haven't beat any more gyms since

3
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:16,760
then have they I'm how many I think they're past four gyms whatever there

4
00:00:14,839 --> 00:00:20,560
last time I checked they were uh out of the Safari Zone it's ridiculous I mean

5
00:00:18,960 --> 00:00:24,840
they're moving on to bla so I can't remember the exact count The Fad will

6
00:00:22,519 --> 00:00:29,080
end and then that will be that yeah probably but I fully expect them to do

7
00:00:26,480 --> 00:00:33,760
at least one more game like I I expect them to try like Final Fantasy or

8
00:00:31,680 --> 00:00:38,600
something good luck they're going to fail I mean but I could see them trying

9
00:00:35,760 --> 00:00:44,399
it I'd be surprised if a thousand people on Twitch could beat like could could

10
00:00:41,600 --> 00:00:48,960
finish like the Leo kefa like basically cut scene fight never mind beating any

11
00:00:46,960 --> 00:00:53,559
of the actual bosses I mean there's only one correct this is the thousand monkeys

12
00:00:51,320 --> 00:00:58,920
with typewriters thing all over again right right have you seen the Democracy

13
00:00:55,719 --> 00:01:01,559
mode though I have not seen democrac

14
00:00:58,920 --> 00:01:05,479
Anarchy and democracy votes so to to get into democracy vote there has to be more

15
00:01:03,600 --> 00:01:08,720
than 80% of people I think it is voting for democracy and then it'll switch into

16
00:01:07,520 --> 00:01:14,159
democracy mode and then when you're in democracy mode I think you need 50% of the votes or more to go into Anarchy

17
00:01:11,799 --> 00:01:19,119
mode when you're in democracy mode you have 20 seconds to propose your next set

18
00:01:16,159 --> 00:01:23,200
of steps so if you were like up four left three that would mean he would go

19
00:01:21,600 --> 00:01:26,200
up four squares then left three and you have 20 seconds to vote and then he does

20
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:30,079
whatever the votes okay but with an actual okay especially with the one

21
00:01:28,040 --> 00:01:33,759
minute delay that twitch has now yeah yeah boss fights and Final Fantasy good

22
00:01:32,399 --> 00:01:38,920
luck that's Absolut the most hilarious thing about it right now is that there's

23
00:01:36,399 --> 00:01:41,720
a huge delay no I know so that after after they fight someone they just kind

24
00:01:40,399 --> 00:01:46,719
of sit there and go like CU they're hitting like all the

25
00:01:44,119 --> 00:01:49,280
inputs from a minute ago so every time after they do something major they just

26
00:01:48,079 --> 00:01:54,680
kind of like run around and open the start menu for a while and then after

27
00:01:51,159 --> 00:01:54,680
like a minute they actually start going

28
00:01:55,119 --> 00:02:01,079
somewhere like okay good try all right

29
00:01:58,520 --> 00:02:04,360
well welcome to the show on Twitch that does not involve playing Pokemon

30
00:02:02,880 --> 00:02:08,679
although at some point we should probably just do like a like a Pokemon

31
00:02:06,920 --> 00:02:15,040
Afterparty CU I love Pok I have a Pokemon Stadium for N64 that would do it

32
00:02:12,879 --> 00:02:19,760
that would definitely work yeah I also have the adapter for N64 controllers you

33
00:02:17,120 --> 00:02:23,160
can plug uh Pokemon like old school Pokemon games into your N64 so if we

34
00:02:21,760 --> 00:02:29,120
wanted to do that style we could do that as well why does this not surprise me at

35
00:02:27,040 --> 00:02:33,879
all like if someone had asked me if someone walked up on me on the street

36
00:02:30,400 --> 00:02:36,120
and said do you think Luke has like you

37
00:02:33,879 --> 00:02:40,319
know some random freaking adapter the last plug some random freaking cartridge

38
00:02:38,440 --> 00:02:45,959
into some other random fraking thing I'd be like yeah he might not know where it is

39
00:02:43,440 --> 00:02:50,519
but he probably has one it somewhere I also have one for SN just in

40
00:02:48,400 --> 00:02:53,760
case that just in just in case we want to switch consoles yeah just in case

41
00:02:52,319 --> 00:02:58,879
that that that's a thing that's a problem all right guys we've got a great

42
00:02:55,760 --> 00:03:01,120
show for you today is valve watching you

43
00:02:58,879 --> 00:03:07,799
browse that was the rumor going around on the internet and CEO Gabe Newell has

44
00:03:05,239 --> 00:03:11,519
stepped down from on high to deliver his word onto the masses we'll tell you more

45
00:03:09,360 --> 00:03:18,159
about that later Facebook has acquired WhatsApp for 19 billion that's with a B

46
00:03:15,599 --> 00:03:23,879
billions of dollars um which is equivalent to about what was it $43 per

47
00:03:21,159 --> 00:03:28,760
user something along those lines 43 $48 per user that's ridiculous about $43 per

48
00:03:26,799 --> 00:03:32,879
user in spite of the fact that not a single one of those users users has

49
00:03:30,640 --> 00:03:36,200
given WhatsApp probably more than about $2

50
00:03:34,400 --> 00:03:43,400
ever so um next up uh Oculus Rift you might

51
00:03:41,400 --> 00:03:48,159
be able to watch movies on it now which is kind of insane there's one coming on

52
00:03:45,760 --> 00:03:53,200
the way and Google Project Tango which we'll get more into later all right

53
00:04:17,720 --> 00:04:24,400
our sponsor today is Hotspot Shield guys we've actually got something really

54
00:04:22,079 --> 00:04:30,160
exciting to do with Hotspot Shield today and that is give away 10 Elite codes so

55
00:04:28,880 --> 00:04:35,479
we're going to do that later on during our sponsor segment for those of you who don't know about Hotspot Shield it is

56
00:04:33,320 --> 00:04:40,600
the fast easy way to set up a VPN which will allow you to do all kinds of

57
00:04:37,080 --> 00:04:43,400
exciting things like access newscasts or

58
00:04:40,600 --> 00:04:49,039
video Services outside of the region for which they were intended to be broadcast

59
00:04:45,479 --> 00:04:51,560
so a lot of um users outside of North

60
00:04:49,039 --> 00:04:55,880
America can use it to access us Netflix and a lot of folks wanting to enjoy

61
00:04:53,360 --> 00:05:00,240
content from the Sochi Olympic games have been changing their location to the

62
00:04:58,080 --> 00:05:04,160
UK or the US in order to get better coverage of the events that they want to

63
00:05:02,080 --> 00:05:09,880
see so Hotspot Shield is an easy way to do that and you can save 20% off an

64
00:05:06,639 --> 00:05:11,280
elite membership by using offer code oh

65
00:05:09,880 --> 00:05:15,880
bollock I believe I seem to have forgotten my offer code using offer code

66
00:05:13,120 --> 00:05:21,280
lonus very difficult offer code to remember I've forgotten my name not

67
00:05:19,520 --> 00:05:25,880
everyone can be perfect like you all right so we had a couple people yeah

68
00:05:23,479 --> 00:05:28,600
let's just pull on the mic there we had a couple people complaining that the

69
00:05:27,160 --> 00:05:32,120
audio levels are too low so we're going to move the uh mic phone just right into

70
00:05:30,800 --> 00:05:36,840
the shot to the point where hopefully you guys can hear it okay all right

71
00:05:35,080 --> 00:05:41,520
first topic for today here we go I'm going to monitor to

72
00:05:39,400 --> 00:05:44,560
make sure that people like the volume so just keep going forward are we starting

73
00:05:43,160 --> 00:05:49,479
with that segment we are just going to start this is an oh wait oh I got the no

74
00:05:48,440 --> 00:05:58,319
okay we're GNA have to do it we're gonna have to do it in a couple minutes do it later okay y yep all right so let's kick

75
00:05:52,840 --> 00:06:00,400
off with OMG is valve spying on us all

76
00:05:58,319 --> 00:06:04,120
and we would know that for sure if I had remembered to grab my DisplayPort to

77
00:06:02,280 --> 00:06:09,000
HDMI adapter I'll be back in a moment in the meantime do you want to get started

78
00:06:05,280 --> 00:06:11,280
on that sure so essentially no

79
00:06:09,000 --> 00:06:14,759
um yeah I I don't a lot of people freaked out because they're like oh my

80
00:06:12,639 --> 00:06:18,960
God Val's reading my stuff but not as many people freaked out as you might

81
00:06:16,240 --> 00:06:23,440
expect because it was valve I guarantee you if this was EA there would have been

82
00:06:20,400 --> 00:06:25,039
a nuclear explosion of Gamers um but it

83
00:06:23,440 --> 00:06:29,000
wasn't quite as bad as I think it could have been but the man himself levitated

84
00:06:27,360 --> 00:06:32,400
from the heavens came down and gave us the answer that we were looking for

85
00:06:30,800 --> 00:06:37,120
which was that it was not actually malicious did look for things locally

86
00:06:35,280 --> 00:06:42,000
but then grabbed only those things hashed them sent them back to valve

87
00:06:39,000 --> 00:06:44,680
servers um verified that you were being

88
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:49,280
a cheater and then banned you because apparently the guys creating the hacks

89
00:06:47,280 --> 00:06:53,560
are getting frustrated that people are using their hacks without purchasing

90
00:06:51,280 --> 00:06:58,560
them imagine that imagine there being some overlap between cheaters and

91
00:06:56,080 --> 00:07:04,840
hackers so so cheaters have literally created their own form of DRM that has

92
00:07:01,720 --> 00:07:08,000
server callbacks so that they can make

93
00:07:04,840 --> 00:07:10,240
sure that you bought it which is insane

94
00:07:08,000 --> 00:07:13,800
um so valve kind of piggybacked on top of that tried to detect that and then

95
00:07:12,120 --> 00:07:18,120
ban users based on that they weren't Banning you based on if you went to the

96
00:07:16,240 --> 00:07:21,560
website they were not Banning you based on that they were Banning you based on

97
00:07:19,319 --> 00:07:25,280
if there was call backs because the hack was currently running and they were

98
00:07:22,919 --> 00:07:30,440
trying to check for DRM so basically that usual DRM nonsense that makes

99
00:07:27,800 --> 00:07:36,759
people upset that is to say say uh constant phoning home from your software

100
00:07:33,520 --> 00:07:40,000
is what ultimately led to valve not

101
00:07:36,759 --> 00:07:42,360
doing that but just exploiting that

102
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:48,199
someone else was taking advantage of your computer to send call backs to take

103
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:53,319
advantage of the fact that some people weren't paying for their software so

104
00:07:50,080 --> 00:07:55,360
basically um no honor among Thieves

105
00:07:53,319 --> 00:08:00,159
companies that design cheats and then the people who use

106
00:07:57,800 --> 00:08:04,159
them yeah both they they're they're they're screwing each other over so it

107
00:08:01,639 --> 00:08:07,159
was only active for about 13 days at which point it was able to be

108
00:08:05,400 --> 00:08:12,720
circumvented because this happens all the time um and they fully expected that

109
00:08:09,199 --> 00:08:14,599
so it was pulled um uh Gabe is even

110
00:08:12,720 --> 00:08:17,840
claiming that it's possible that the original thread created throwing them

111
00:08:16,240 --> 00:08:22,039
under the bus was even just a social engineering attack from the people that

112
00:08:19,440 --> 00:08:26,240
made the hack or at least inspired by those people in some sort of way which

113
00:08:23,720 --> 00:08:32,279
does make a ton of sense um sorry uh he's quoted saying uh do we

114
00:08:29,520 --> 00:08:37,360
send your browser history to valve no do we care what porn sites you visit oh

115
00:08:34,440 --> 00:08:41,959
dear God no my brain just melted those were his exact terms it's pretty good um

116
00:08:40,039 --> 00:08:45,480
is valve using its Market success to go evil and then he says I don't think so

117
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:49,800
but you have to make the call if we are trustworthy we try to earn we try hard

118
00:08:47,959 --> 00:08:54,399
we try really hard to earn and keep your trust which I guess that's the only way

119
00:08:51,600 --> 00:08:59,120
he can really say it it kind of makes sense it does make sense I mean if it

120
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:05,560
was anyone but valve yeah everyone would have fre freaked out do I

121
00:09:01,160 --> 00:09:08,440
particularly I mean do do I like them

122
00:09:05,560 --> 00:09:11,120
doing stuff that I don't know about I mean it's one of those things where and

123
00:09:09,839 --> 00:09:19,240
he he even addressed this in his statement which is about this long it's on Reddit and he's kind of going like we

124
00:09:15,760 --> 00:09:21,480
don't talk about what we do with valvan

125
00:09:19,240 --> 00:09:26,040
cheat no one does because we can't because if we do then they'll be it'll

126
00:09:23,760 --> 00:09:31,440
take them less than 13 days to figure out what we're doing and work around it

127
00:09:28,720 --> 00:09:37,440
again and that that's a big problem to me because what about when they decide

128
00:09:34,600 --> 00:09:41,480
to be less valve at some point what about when but everyone does this

129
00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:45,720
literally everyone that has a security implementation has to they'll they'll

130
00:09:43,160 --> 00:09:49,959
probably contribute to some open open encryption form or whatever but what

131
00:09:48,160 --> 00:09:53,600
they're using and how they're using it is not going to be on the table at all

132
00:09:51,880 --> 00:09:57,120
points well remember back in the early days of the lonus tech tips Forum when I

133
00:09:55,560 --> 00:10:03,680
always used to talk about the new security measures that we had implemented super frustrating and then

134
00:10:01,040 --> 00:10:08,720
the site would go down like that was like come on man so I understand why

135
00:10:07,079 --> 00:10:13,320
they're not doing this it just it does make me a little bit uncomfortable

136
00:10:10,399 --> 00:10:19,680
because does is it anywhere in the steam Ula that they can or can't do whatever

137
00:10:16,519 --> 00:10:21,640
it is they're doing with doubt it or if

138
00:10:19,680 --> 00:10:26,399
it is in there is it in such terms that we would never have understood it anyway

139
00:10:24,079 --> 00:10:32,240
yeah probably or sorry I meant do it as in like uh like there's probably nothing

140
00:10:29,680 --> 00:10:35,240
protecting us against that in there and there's probably nothing saying that

141
00:10:33,399 --> 00:10:40,800
they won't ever do it in there like it's probably just not in there at all um

142
00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:41,920
that being said yeah I don't know again

143
00:10:40,800 --> 00:10:45,639
I think a lot of people would be a lot more harsh on it if it was EA but then

144
00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:50,959
again if it was EA it probably would be harsh so I don't know considering the

145
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:55,839
like system information call backs that origin already does and they're completely open about

146
00:10:56,680 --> 00:11:02,800
right I don't know

147
00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:08,560
so yeah there's that um I think we covered everything with

148
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:10,880
that no okay so less than one ten0 of 1%

149
00:11:08,560 --> 00:11:16,040
of the clients triggered by the second check were actually banned and that was

150
00:11:14,360 --> 00:11:21,480
570 people no sorry less than one1 1% of

151
00:11:19,120 --> 00:11:25,240
clients triggered the second check yeah so a lot of them got triggered by the

152
00:11:22,839 --> 00:11:29,399
first one but way less got triggered by the second one and of those that was

153
00:11:27,279 --> 00:11:35,279
that that's 570 people that's a crazy amount of people and I mean it's one of

154
00:11:32,600 --> 00:11:38,279
those things where are we happy that valve is keeping our street safe so to

155
00:11:37,320 --> 00:11:45,399
speak and but then is it really going to do anything I mean you know what Let's do

156
00:11:42,839 --> 00:11:50,399
let's do uh let's do a little poll here hold on I've never actually used straw

157
00:11:47,440 --> 00:11:56,440
pole before but I'm I'm going to hope me not me sorry straw pole. me I want to

158
00:11:54,839 --> 00:12:04,839
hear from you guys do you cheat in

159
00:12:01,839 --> 00:12:09,079
multiplayer it's Anonymous I guess games

160
00:12:04,839 --> 00:12:11,760
yeah it's completely Anonymous um

161
00:12:09,079 --> 00:12:15,040
yes sort of all the time and I'd love for you guys to weigh in on this with

162
00:12:13,279 --> 00:12:21,399
more than just the than just the poll answer if you want to hit us on Twitter

163
00:12:16,519 --> 00:12:25,399
that's at Linus Tech um so yes

164
00:12:21,399 --> 00:12:28,000
sometimes yes rarely and

165
00:12:25,399 --> 00:12:33,320
no all right uh permissive that thing right yes yes yeah

166
00:12:31,760 --> 00:12:39,279
that's fine y okay I'm gonna go ahead and create that poll just click on it yeah there we go

167
00:12:38,120 --> 00:12:43,199
all right so we're going to post that in the twitch chat here for you guys I'll

168
00:12:41,279 --> 00:12:50,079
try to grab it and repost boom all right so in the meantime

169
00:12:47,399 --> 00:12:56,720
let's move on to our next topic which is Bitcoin ATMs potentially coming to the

170
00:12:52,680 --> 00:12:59,160
states maybe perhaps not 100% sure there

171
00:12:56,720 --> 00:13:05,000
is a Bitcoin ATM actually in our home Hometown here in Vancouver and that same

172
00:13:02,240 --> 00:13:11,480
company is looking to expand to different locations however one of the

173
00:13:07,720 --> 00:13:14,160
big things that just has to go away with

174
00:13:11,480 --> 00:13:21,120
respect to how Bitcoin works is the anonymity in order

175
00:13:16,240 --> 00:13:23,639
for anywhere to allow you to put a

176
00:13:21,120 --> 00:13:30,079
Bitcoin ATM so the one in Vancouver has a biometric scanner and I mean we can

177
00:13:26,519 --> 00:13:32,000
talk all day about how easy that is to

178
00:13:30,079 --> 00:13:36,680
get around that's going to be and how like bull crap that actually is it's

179
00:13:34,160 --> 00:13:41,959
better than nothing that's true I mean sometimes I this is I mean this is kind

180
00:13:39,399 --> 00:13:46,680
of a whole other discussion topic but sometimes it's not about making a

181
00:13:44,480 --> 00:13:50,399
completely impervious security measure just having something there sometimes

182
00:13:48,360 --> 00:13:58,720
it's about the barrier to entry yeah I mean is a a is a passport impossible to

183
00:13:55,440 --> 00:14:00,199
forge no but are you going to do it am I

184
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:06,800
going to and that's part of that's actually a part of a big security discussion that I was in on not that

185
00:14:03,360 --> 00:14:08,399
long ago which was the idea of yes okay

186
00:14:06,800 --> 00:14:11,639
maybe the facial recognition stuff is pretty easy to break through and maybe

187
00:14:10,120 --> 00:14:14,839
like fingerprint Biometrics are pretty easy to bre break through and maybe

188
00:14:13,320 --> 00:14:20,560
voice scanning is pretty easy to break through but if I set up a door and have

189
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:22,680
every single one of those good luck yep

190
00:14:20,560 --> 00:14:25,920
like it's going to be real difficult to get all of that before you actually try

191
00:14:24,519 --> 00:14:32,519
to get through the door and it's not the kind of thing where I think you'll ever be able to replace an armed guard yeah

192
00:14:30,800 --> 00:14:38,839
if something's actually that value and but if it is then pay the guy 20 bucks

193
00:14:35,160 --> 00:14:38,839
an hour and give him a gun come

194
00:14:39,320 --> 00:14:44,519
on yeah yeah I don't know so okay I

195
00:14:43,279 --> 00:14:49,240
think there was there was kind of more to talk about sorry I got disced so the

196
00:14:47,600 --> 00:14:52,120
guys putting the ATM in will probably be robocoin which are the same guys that

197
00:14:50,839 --> 00:14:55,839
put the one in Vancouver like he was just talking about you would be able to

198
00:14:53,880 --> 00:15:01,759
withdraw money in USD or you'd be able to deposit USD in order to contribute

199
00:14:59,000 --> 00:15:05,399
rute towards your Bitcoin account um they want to put machines in Seattle and

200
00:15:03,680 --> 00:15:10,120
Austin by the end of February although they have previously said that they wanted to put machines in New York and

201
00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:13,560
Los Angeles and that hasn't happened yet due to the problems that lanis was just

202
00:15:11,680 --> 00:15:17,279
talking about with the the requirement of being able to identify the person at

203
00:15:15,360 --> 00:15:21,240
the machine it's a sketchy thing for lawmakers they everyone's kind of on the

204
00:15:19,240 --> 00:15:24,560
fence about allowing Bitcoin into their cities

205
00:15:22,480 --> 00:15:28,199
essentially and I mean it's one of those things where I think the you know we've

206
00:15:26,639 --> 00:15:34,160
talked about this offline and I think it's an interesting topic to me the

207
00:15:31,199 --> 00:15:39,800
biggest reason that I can come up with that I think Bitcoin will fail is the

208
00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:46,560
negative press you can make the argument all day that no press is bad press but

209
00:15:43,839 --> 00:15:51,920
bad press is bad press when your competitors are getting good press and

210
00:15:49,279 --> 00:15:58,240
get lots of good press and as much as Dogecoin started as a total joke and it

211
00:15:54,680 --> 00:16:01,680
was ridiculous just for a lark they get

212
00:15:58,240 --> 00:16:05,160
so much good press and good vibe around

213
00:16:01,680 --> 00:16:07,880
them whereas with Bitcoin every other

214
00:16:05,160 --> 00:16:12,399
day it feels like there's a there's some kind of news story because they're so

215
00:16:09,639 --> 00:16:17,560
high-profile it's like being a star athlete in a city that follows you

216
00:16:14,680 --> 00:16:22,519
really closely your Highs are the expectation and your lows get blown out

217
00:16:20,279 --> 00:16:27,399
of proportion because you're the big kid so with Bitcoin every time there's a

218
00:16:24,519 --> 00:16:33,600
wild fluctuation in value it explodes every time mount gaau isn't paying

219
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:37,240
people it explodes every time you know

220
00:16:33,600 --> 00:16:39,319
um a a drug ring or every time there's a

221
00:16:37,240 --> 00:16:44,120
massive child pornography Bust or something like that and it turns out

222
00:16:41,519 --> 00:16:49,279
that Bitcoins Were Somehow involved in the transaction any way in any way if

223
00:16:46,800 --> 00:16:52,920
it's super minor even if because remember it's a lot of the time the

224
00:16:51,440 --> 00:16:59,959
folks writing a newscast they're basically Layman right

225
00:16:56,480 --> 00:17:03,079
so even if it was litecoins or dogecoins

226
00:16:59,959 --> 00:17:04,319
or you know lonus coins or whatever else

227
00:17:03,079 --> 00:17:13,480
they're going to say inter coin so they're going to say Bitcoin Bitcoin the same way they say cleanex or Xerox

228
00:17:08,880 --> 00:17:15,160
they'll say Bitcoin so it the name will

229
00:17:13,480 --> 00:17:19,959
be somewhere in that negativity and for that reason I think that bitcoin's a

230
00:17:17,559 --> 00:17:24,160
Pioneer I think that it sets a new precedent I think that cryptocurrency

231
00:17:21,799 --> 00:17:27,799
has a very bright and very long future I just don't think bitcoin's going to win

232
00:17:25,600 --> 00:17:31,240
in the longer term and then that whole uh like observation what you feel about

233
00:17:29,720 --> 00:17:37,559
the different coins and the aura around them thing Bitcoin has drug sex and

234
00:17:34,919 --> 00:17:41,520
weaponry then Litecoin has a whole bunch of people on the internet using AMD

235
00:17:39,160 --> 00:17:46,480
graphics cards to generate what is essentially going to turn into

236
00:17:43,480 --> 00:17:48,960
Bitcoins and then Dogecoin is like lol

237
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:53,320
charity because I don't know what else to do with

238
00:17:50,000 --> 00:17:54,960
this so it's like that's how um not

239
00:17:53,320 --> 00:17:59,320
small portion of the internet sees the whole situation so then what do you

240
00:17:56,559 --> 00:18:04,720
expect to actually come out of it interesting so I mean with that said if

241
00:18:03,039 --> 00:18:11,000
Bitcoin is the one that ends up with an infrastructure like ATMs then great but

242
00:18:08,120 --> 00:18:15,360
if Bitcoin again paves the way by having like four ATMs and then someone better

243
00:18:13,440 --> 00:18:19,880
organized comes along and goes yep we're going to take that concept and we're

244
00:18:16,840 --> 00:18:21,640
going to go massively all over the

245
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:25,559
country with something that's not Anonymous and doesn't have all these negative connotations around it then

246
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:29,440
that could be very successful and that makes sense because bitcoin's going to

247
00:18:27,520 --> 00:18:32,559
go in and get lawmakers to approve these machines and then when another person

248
00:18:31,159 --> 00:18:37,840
goes in and tries to put in a machine it's probably going to be super easy CU they will have done it already it's

249
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:41,080
tough to be the first one yeah it really is I mean can you imagine if we tried to

250
00:18:39,600 --> 00:18:46,200
be the first tech YouTuber where would I have even gotten

251
00:18:43,000 --> 00:18:48,760
the idea like no honestly I mean it's

252
00:18:46,200 --> 00:18:52,679
it's really tough to be the first one yeah I'm okay with sloppy

253
00:18:52,960 --> 00:19:01,480
seconds all right so our next story is Facebook a Qui

254
00:18:59,320 --> 00:19:04,480
WhatsApp for 19

255
00:19:05,159 --> 00:19:11,440
billion 19 billion so this pretty much

256
00:19:09,440 --> 00:19:17,679
precludes any further talks with Snapchat because WhatsApp has an

257
00:19:14,039 --> 00:19:18,760
enormous what is it 470 million users

258
00:19:17,679 --> 00:19:25,440
something like that and then they're adding 1 million users per day right now

259
00:19:23,039 --> 00:19:29,280
so okay there's a few different ways to look at this number one is from the

260
00:19:28,120 --> 00:19:34,919
purely um dollars and cents perspective where

261
00:19:32,280 --> 00:19:39,919
you kind of go okay so what'sapp this is a company that did I think it was 30

262
00:19:37,840 --> 00:19:44,000
some odd million Revenue last

263
00:19:41,799 --> 00:19:48,960
year Revenue not profit this is a company

264
00:19:47,159 --> 00:19:53,200
with like 50 employees you know those shirt cannons

265
00:19:51,240 --> 00:19:57,880
that you see at like events yeah it's like Silicon Val like like apple and

266
00:19:55,480 --> 00:20:04,240
Facebook and these Google just have shirt cannons of money and there's like

267
00:20:00,559 --> 00:20:07,799
boom boom just like see what we can hit

268
00:20:04,240 --> 00:20:09,320
who cares no research just boom let's

269
00:20:07,799 --> 00:20:14,080
just shoot money at everything and see what happens so that is one way of

270
00:20:11,880 --> 00:20:19,200
looking at it is is they they are spending many many dollars on the penny

271
00:20:17,600 --> 00:20:24,280
for what the company is actually worth from a strictly Revenue

272
00:20:21,000 --> 00:20:25,960
perspective and there's some validity

273
00:20:24,280 --> 00:20:32,880
there but then the other way of looking at it is this $19 billion AC position is

274
00:20:29,559 --> 00:20:35,320
for a social network and I have a hard

275
00:20:32,880 --> 00:20:41,159
time classifying WhatsApp as a social network but more on more on that in a

276
00:20:37,919 --> 00:20:45,120
moment for $43 per

277
00:20:41,159 --> 00:20:47,679
user and when you consider what other

278
00:20:45,120 --> 00:20:53,880
social networks there are with that many users and what it would cost to buy you

279
00:20:51,159 --> 00:20:58,679
know I don't know Facebook is a great example or Microsoft what what that

280
00:20:56,039 --> 00:21:02,559
would actually cost then it looks potentially like a value and then some

281
00:21:00,640 --> 00:21:07,200
of the other justification is is the the growth of WhatsApp right now where it's

282
00:21:04,720 --> 00:21:12,760
a million new users per day and you kind of go okay well then in you know two

283
00:21:09,039 --> 00:21:14,360
years they could have two billion users

284
00:21:12,760 --> 00:21:19,279
and a third of the entire world I mean in India 400 million users are on

285
00:21:17,279 --> 00:21:22,919
WhatsApp or something like that maybe I'm maybe I'm getting the overall

286
00:21:20,600 --> 00:21:27,200
numbers wrong right now how many users do they have right now India boasts 400

287
00:21:25,400 --> 00:21:31,120
million active members yeah 400 million active members so

288
00:21:29,080 --> 00:21:34,159
I mean that that's that's absolutely huge it's an emerging market that you

289
00:21:32,640 --> 00:21:38,559
want to be able to reach and you could kind of look at it and go okay well

290
00:21:36,039 --> 00:21:43,760
monetizing such a large user base should be a

291
00:21:39,440 --> 00:21:45,799
no-brainer so then that leads to two

292
00:21:43,760 --> 00:21:50,720
conversations before your whole thing about why they why you think they want

293
00:21:47,720 --> 00:21:53,440
it so conversation number one is I don't

294
00:21:50,720 --> 00:22:00,240
really see WhatsApp as a social network to me WhatsApp is a messaging utility

295
00:21:56,200 --> 00:22:04,480
that can come and go as quickly as icq

296
00:22:00,240 --> 00:22:08,240
MSN or anything else I don't think that

297
00:22:04,480 --> 00:22:13,840
the experience of using Whatsapp is

298
00:22:08,240 --> 00:22:16,960
nearly as rich as something like um even

299
00:22:13,840 --> 00:22:19,200
Twitter because Twitter is all about

300
00:22:16,960 --> 00:22:25,720
connecting with people that you don't already have a connection to Whatsapp is

301
00:22:23,159 --> 00:22:30,480
about yo dog I just switched over to this thing because it's free and like I

302
00:22:28,600 --> 00:22:35,520
don't want to pay for text messages a paradigm that's probably going to go

303
00:22:32,559 --> 00:22:39,320
away in the next few years as Telos have all moved away from I mean when WhatsApp

304
00:22:37,440 --> 00:22:43,400
gained popularity we were still looking at cell phone plans that were like

305
00:22:41,080 --> 00:22:48,159
here's your 250 text messages a month yeah yeah that's where WhatsApp came

306
00:22:45,880 --> 00:22:53,440
from it was a free way to send text messages not you know some kind of

307
00:22:51,320 --> 00:22:57,880
amazing Paradigm shifting uh communication platform that connects you

308
00:22:55,279 --> 00:23:03,000
with people I mean Twitter's amazing through Twitter t i i do most of my

309
00:23:00,600 --> 00:23:06,679
Outreach to people that I don't know whether it's Nixie pixel who we've

310
00:23:04,960 --> 00:23:10,400
invited to be a guest on the W show in a couple of weeks so we've had a lot of

311
00:23:08,000 --> 00:23:15,000
requests for that how would I reach these people if it wasn't for Twitter

312
00:23:12,880 --> 00:23:19,640
because Twitter is a way for people who normally wouldn't talk to you to ignore

313
00:23:17,840 --> 00:23:22,799
you if they want or if they see something really interesting as they

314
00:23:20,880 --> 00:23:29,600
flip through their feed be like oh yeah sure and engage with you WhatsApp isn't

315
00:23:26,919 --> 00:23:35,679
that so who cares I'm going to cut in one quick

316
00:23:31,600 --> 00:23:38,600
second um we've got two mixing articles

317
00:23:35,679 --> 00:23:43,080
one says 16 billion one says 19 billion but it's a lot even at 16 billion it's

318
00:23:41,159 --> 00:23:46,279
kind of redonkulous I thought it was 19 I thought it was 19 I read another one

319
00:23:44,799 --> 00:23:50,720
after the ones that you have in the dock that said 19 so The Verge says 16 The

320
00:23:48,400 --> 00:23:55,400
Verge says 16 yeah interesting okay so there's there's a few but we always run

321
00:23:52,400 --> 00:23:57,840
into that y so the Internet it's a large

322
00:23:55,400 --> 00:24:02,840
portion of money no matter what it comes down to so my thing or do you have more

323
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:07,840
to go over no no wait okay there was is it a social network and then um I forget

324
00:24:06,720 --> 00:24:13,240
what the other thing was that's the biggest question to me yeah oh no sorry

325
00:24:10,440 --> 00:24:16,039
and can they monetize it right uh there's a there's a article that came

326
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:22,000
out not that long ago saying that they're not going to be monetizing WhatsApp but then now that it's owned by

327
00:24:18,919 --> 00:24:24,000
Facebook yeah but no even Facebook I

328
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:28,039
think has said that there's there's like they're not changing the structure in

329
00:24:25,600 --> 00:24:32,720
fact the $1 subscription fee may go away yeah so but that's all fine and good

330
00:24:30,559 --> 00:24:37,120
because remember guys it is a strategy to build as many users as you can at any

331
00:24:35,039 --> 00:24:41,080
cost and then exploit them as hardcore as you can until they all migrate to

332
00:24:39,080 --> 00:24:45,559
something else so the the real question here then is can they get their 19

333
00:24:43,399 --> 00:24:51,240
billion back before everyone migrates to something else and maybe that's it maybe

334
00:24:48,679 --> 00:24:55,200
if I look at it and I go you know with my sustainable business model had on cuz

335
00:24:53,640 --> 00:25:00,399
everything I do here at Linus Media Group isn't on the scale of what someone

336
00:24:57,679 --> 00:25:04,080
like Mark Zuckerberg is doing where he's working with billions of dollars the way

337
00:25:02,559 --> 00:25:07,399
that I would work with hundreds of dollars you know when I look at

338
00:25:06,080 --> 00:25:14,440
something and I go okay we're going to do like a new thing we're going to do t-shirts or we're going to start a new

339
00:25:10,720 --> 00:25:16,480
show it's where will that show be in

340
00:25:14,440 --> 00:25:20,640
three years when we're still developing it and we want it to be sustainable to

341
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:25,559
the point where we can attract sponsors we can attract viewers and we can make

342
00:25:22,679 --> 00:25:30,440
both of those groups happy for a very long period of time that's what I'm

343
00:25:27,440 --> 00:25:32,679
trying to do whereas if Facebook is just

344
00:25:30,440 --> 00:25:36,960
kind of looking at this going okay well we're not worried about turning WhatsApp

345
00:25:34,840 --> 00:25:41,760
into a sustainable business that can bring in a billion dollars a year of

346
00:25:39,399 --> 00:25:46,840
revenue for 20 years because 20 years in the internet game is is an incredibly

347
00:25:45,039 --> 00:25:50,120
long period I would make a bet WhatsApp won't exist in 20 years so if they're

348
00:25:48,720 --> 00:25:55,320
looking at it going okay let's make a quick buck in two years we could have

349
00:25:52,679 --> 00:25:59,840
two billion users and then we could make each of them worth you know 30 40 bucks

350
00:25:58,039 --> 00:26:04,000
each easily then we'll make double on our investment or if we could turn each

351
00:26:01,360 --> 00:26:09,559
of them into $100 by selling out so hardcore when the time comes then we

352
00:26:06,480 --> 00:26:11,159
could make you know 5x back on our

353
00:26:09,559 --> 00:26:16,760
investment or whatever that number ends up being so if that's the way of looking

354
00:26:13,440 --> 00:26:18,720
at it then hey there you go maybe it's a

355
00:26:16,760 --> 00:26:21,640
great idea so go on your next thing one thing I've been worried about is because

356
00:26:20,080 --> 00:26:26,159
something that we've started doing on the show now because we have to because

357
00:26:23,559 --> 00:26:30,279
it makes sense is inspect how everything that happens on the internet could be

358
00:26:27,559 --> 00:26:34,320
terrible so um not that long ago Facebook released an update um and we

359
00:26:32,919 --> 00:26:38,000
actually missed this on the W show but Facebook released an update M making it

360
00:26:36,559 --> 00:26:41,679
so that Facebook could read your text messages and like your your call

361
00:26:40,399 --> 00:26:45,919
information so they could know who you're calling I think that part but I

362
00:26:43,679 --> 00:26:49,919
know they can read your text messages so now if they buy WhatsApp they'll be able

363
00:26:47,760 --> 00:26:53,960
to read all of your text messages and all of your kind of text messages

364
00:26:51,640 --> 00:26:57,240
through WhatsApp so they're just expanding the amount of text messages

365
00:26:55,720 --> 00:27:00,360
they can read so they can have all of your Facebook interaction which is a

366
00:26:58,720 --> 00:27:03,720
huge amount of interaction all of your text message interaction and all of your

367
00:27:02,080 --> 00:27:08,919
kind of text message interaction which is WhatsApp excluding BBM which is I'm

368
00:27:06,720 --> 00:27:12,679
sure microscopic compared to what'sapp and then of course there's the whole

369
00:27:10,399 --> 00:27:17,760
argument that they want to they want to get into the underground of messaging

370
00:27:15,000 --> 00:27:20,799
yeah but then figure out how to monetize it later or something I mean all the

371
00:27:19,240 --> 00:27:26,080
people that are interested in things like Snapchat or even I guess what's up

372
00:27:23,360 --> 00:27:29,799
to a much lesser extent um those kind of those underground folks are going to

373
00:27:27,720 --> 00:27:32,760
have no interest in continuing to use that platform once Facebook owns it I

374
00:27:31,360 --> 00:27:37,159
would imagine so we'll see how this shakes down I mean like I said if the

375
00:27:34,720 --> 00:27:41,360
plan is just here's a bunch of users let's milk them for all their worth for

376
00:27:39,039 --> 00:27:45,039
a short period of time after we build it up into a big thing then there you go

377
00:27:43,440 --> 00:27:51,720
maybe it works then there you go all right let's go to our straw pool so

378
00:27:47,600 --> 00:27:56,320
let's go ahead and so 80% of you do not

379
00:27:51,720 --> 00:27:59,679
cheat and 20% of you cheat rarely

380
00:27:56,320 --> 00:28:03,120
sometimes or all the the time 2% of you

381
00:27:59,679 --> 00:28:07,440
say you cheat all the time so if valve

382
00:28:03,120 --> 00:28:11,880
only even got to stage two with what was

383
00:28:07,440 --> 00:28:14,559
it 0.1% Point uh what0 one of a percent

384
00:28:11,880 --> 00:28:19,799
I think it was yeah keep going yeah with 0. one of a percent then that means that

385
00:28:17,279 --> 00:28:25,440
whatever they're doing probably didn't dig that deep because they didn't catch

386
00:28:22,840 --> 00:28:30,120
19.9% of the people that right on our stream are saying that yes they cheat um

387
00:28:30,960 --> 00:28:37,960
and yeah I don't so a wasn't that effective and B so they probably weren't

388
00:28:35,720 --> 00:28:41,440
digging that deep and the thing is uh and he even said it in the article was

389
00:28:39,600 --> 00:28:45,480
it it has to be multipronged all the time yeah so this is one of their

390
00:28:43,720 --> 00:28:50,080
attacks they don't have a single spear they have many so this is one of the

391
00:28:47,480 --> 00:28:53,320
things they can potentially do they also have the thing where if someone gets

392
00:28:51,519 --> 00:28:56,200
reported if you're playing the game and someone gets reported I don't remember

393
00:28:54,720 --> 00:28:59,519
exactly what it's called but my roommate used to do it all the time who was

394
00:28:57,720 --> 00:29:03,960
actually really cool is you would be able to go in and watch their game along

395
00:29:02,399 --> 00:29:07,279
with a whole bunch of other people um and it wouldn't show their

396
00:29:06,159 --> 00:29:12,159
username or anything like that but you could watch their game and then determine yes they're using a hack yes

397
00:29:10,399 --> 00:29:15,840
they're using wall hack uh plausible deniability like all these other

398
00:29:13,600 --> 00:29:19,720
different options and then if you voted along the same with basically everyone

399
00:29:17,960 --> 00:29:24,279
else that voted if you agreed with the ending verdict yeah then you got to keep

400
00:29:22,200 --> 00:29:28,159
going and keep reviewing footage so it tried to it kept everyone honest because

401
00:29:25,960 --> 00:29:31,519
if they wanted to keep doing this right had to be accurate all the time um so

402
00:29:30,159 --> 00:29:35,679
that's another way that they can ban people and that apparently actually works really well and has been a huge

403
00:29:34,279 --> 00:29:40,600
front for them I know League of Legends does a similar thing um so like they

404
00:29:38,880 --> 00:29:44,799
have many options so just because this one didn't get a huge wide spectrum

405
00:29:42,559 --> 00:29:48,919
doesn't mean that vac isn't trying yeah because games like

406
00:29:46,640 --> 00:29:52,679
Counter-Strike are huge so cheat creators for those type of games yeah

407
00:29:51,200 --> 00:29:58,360
yeah and considering how long it's been around too like man it's got to be crazy

408
00:29:56,480 --> 00:30:02,480
oh sorry for the off topic can can you tell me why you didn't like the hobbit 2

409
00:30:00,360 --> 00:30:06,960
I didn't like it either no I'm not going to rant about hobbit 2 I thought about

410
00:30:04,919 --> 00:30:11,679
doing a movie review of it but it's one of those topics that seems very

411
00:30:08,519 --> 00:30:14,320
polarizing um there's a group of people

412
00:30:11,679 --> 00:30:18,240
that think it's the best movie ever and then there's a group of people that

413
00:30:15,640 --> 00:30:22,559
don't think it's the best movie ever and I don't really want to have that debate

414
00:30:20,360 --> 00:30:27,080
because it's like a it's almost like a religious debate at that point how do

415
00:30:24,559 --> 00:30:34,200
you argue objectively for the merits of a movie you can't

416
00:30:30,760 --> 00:30:36,960
so I like to use the term exploit in

417
00:30:34,200 --> 00:30:41,000
games uh as long as it doesn't affect anyone else so single

418
00:30:38,840 --> 00:30:43,279
player CU if you're if you're exploiting or cheating you're doing something that

419
00:30:42,039 --> 00:30:46,440
someone else can't so it's affecting other people in multiplay buying

420
00:30:45,039 --> 00:30:50,559
WhatsApp let's Facebook take out the competition growing bigger Google help

421
00:30:48,399 --> 00:30:55,760
focus on furthering their yeah probably okay Amed says I disagree

422
00:30:53,320 --> 00:30:59,639
WhatsApp sends audio video group chats Etc it's not going anywhere just not as

423
00:30:58,039 --> 00:31:03,880
popular in North America oh it's plenty popular here okay not as popular as in

424
00:31:01,480 --> 00:31:07,960
other places but it is popular I just don't think that that

425
00:31:05,679 --> 00:31:11,919
functionality qualifies it as a social network because I don't think it's any

426
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:18,279
more of a social network than a telephone that's all my telephone can

427
00:31:14,960 --> 00:31:20,279
send audio video group chats Etc but

428
00:31:18,279 --> 00:31:23,880
that doesn't mean that the phone line is a social network to me that's what

429
00:31:21,679 --> 00:31:28,679
WhatsApp is it's a phone line and a text line um I don't think it's exceptional I

430
00:31:26,480 --> 00:31:32,080
think that if you Ahmed you decided that you were going to

431
00:31:30,200 --> 00:31:35,279
switch to something else and a couple of your buddies got together and they were

432
00:31:33,320 --> 00:31:39,559
going to switch with you and it was free you could all switch like that if the

433
00:31:37,039 --> 00:31:43,000
functionality was somehow in some way minutely better than WhatsApp I think it

434
00:31:41,480 --> 00:31:47,279
could be displaced very easily I did use the group chat thing a

435
00:31:45,320 --> 00:31:51,519
lot when I used to go to school because everyone in all of my classes were

436
00:31:49,600 --> 00:31:54,720
because in the school I was in you moved as one unit from class to class and I

437
00:31:53,000 --> 00:31:59,480
use it all the time for badmon as well like you know you know it's 10 billion

438
00:31:57,399 --> 00:32:02,960
other things I can do that yeah and it's just a matter of them doing something

439
00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:08,320
stupid and upsetting people and then that being that uh there you go 16

440
00:32:05,679 --> 00:32:14,600
billion Cash 3 billion Facebook shares um according to wow probably equates to

441
00:32:12,600 --> 00:32:18,200
19 I guess what's up main appeals to keep in touch with overseas friends

442
00:32:15,880 --> 00:32:21,720
absolutely but then again hundred billion things that could MSN had so

443
00:32:20,519 --> 00:32:27,039
much potential I'm not going to go on this rant again but MSN could MSN

444
00:32:24,559 --> 00:32:29,880
Messenger could have easily been I honestly I think it would the coolest

445
00:32:28,440 --> 00:32:35,639
thing ever if they just like release a News Bulletin and they're like yep it's coming back yep it's just i' be like yes

446
00:32:33,919 --> 00:32:39,799
we're getting rid of Skype yeah we're taking on what's because Amazon had all

447
00:32:37,840 --> 00:32:46,440
this functionality ages ago all they needed was a mobile version yeah

448
00:32:44,159 --> 00:32:50,000
anyway redirects to YouTube video which redirects to Twitch stream well yeah but

449
00:32:48,760 --> 00:32:53,480
if we don't do that then we can't reach everyone Carl says with the exception of

450
00:32:51,880 --> 00:32:57,480
known exploits from ingame glitches I don't cheat why cheat there's no pride

451
00:32:54,960 --> 00:33:02,120
in cheating absolutely what'sapp isn't anything like Twitter so can't be

452
00:32:58,799 --> 00:33:04,120
compared yeah I know WhatsApp made me

453
00:33:02,120 --> 00:33:09,639
able to use smilees

454
00:33:06,519 --> 00:33:11,200
what that doesn't make it that's you can

455
00:33:09,639 --> 00:33:14,000
use smilees in I know it's different from Twitter we never said it was the

456
00:33:12,679 --> 00:33:18,279
same as Twitter what I said is Twitter is a social network and I was saying

457
00:33:16,120 --> 00:33:20,840
WhatsApp is not so actually that's what I was saying is that they're nothing

458
00:33:19,399 --> 00:33:25,000
alike I think it comes down to how you define social networks too because it

459
00:33:23,600 --> 00:33:29,080
technically it's a social network if you create a group chat because it is a

460
00:33:26,840 --> 00:33:32,600
network of people socially interacting fine then is

461
00:33:30,600 --> 00:33:37,279
three-way calling a social network see then I don't know I don't

462
00:33:35,240 --> 00:33:40,799
know all right haven't tried enough of them to say for sure okay lots of people

463
00:33:38,799 --> 00:33:44,600
not talking yet don't get satisfaction from cheating okay what is the point of

464
00:33:42,919 --> 00:33:48,080
cheating in games even in single player games that would just kill the challenge

465
00:33:46,279 --> 00:33:52,880
c i i find certain cheats in single player games to be okay um yeah I've

466
00:33:49,919 --> 00:33:55,519
done it just cuz I'm like bored I'm like yeah it's usually when you're messing

467
00:33:53,840 --> 00:34:00,200
around and I usually find those cheats to be like sandbox games like cheat in

468
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:06,519
games like just cause and GTA are hilarious right but like I yeah Peter

469
00:34:04,320 --> 00:34:10,679
figures Karma J takes a giant tur on You for Cheating I certainly hope so I don't

470
00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:14,760
cheat because getting a ban on Steam would be a disaster with all the games

471
00:34:12,440 --> 00:34:18,800
that I have y that's that's that's something actually as you build up your

472
00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:22,079
steam Library larger and larger and larger getting banned will have much

473
00:34:20,800 --> 00:34:26,240
more of an impact but if you're someone who cheats all the time like I think

474
00:34:23,800 --> 00:34:30,280
that'll again some that aren't permanent now as well deterrence for the casuals

475
00:34:28,879 --> 00:34:36,399
are really the big victory because there's always going to be the hardcore guys that have 100 steam accounts each

476
00:34:33,440 --> 00:34:39,159
with one game you can if if for the csgo players out there I'm sure you've

477
00:34:37,760 --> 00:34:45,159
experienced this as well if you play CS:GO a fair amount uh I do the second

478
00:34:42,359 --> 00:34:51,679
there's a steam sale and csgo goes down to like two bucks 50 or like 375 they're

479
00:34:48,879 --> 00:34:55,480
all back it's oh my God it's terrible for like a little while but then you can

480
00:34:53,560 --> 00:35:00,480
tell they just all get crushed and then it's usually somewhat okay again but

481
00:34:58,000 --> 00:35:05,240
like the the the day or like two or three days after a sale starts it's just

482
00:35:02,960 --> 00:35:08,480
it's ugly it's just terrible and like you can if you suspect someone you go

483
00:35:07,200 --> 00:35:13,640
and like look at their steam profile and was like created one day ago owns one

484
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:17,359
game and you're like oh my God

485
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:19,160
hello like that happens so much it's

486
00:35:17,359 --> 00:35:25,560
frustrating all right so let's move on to our next topic this is something that

487
00:35:22,160 --> 00:35:27,720
I actually disagree with the general con

488
00:35:25,560 --> 00:35:33,440
this might turn into a rant uh and Amazon plans to increase membership fees

489
00:35:30,560 --> 00:35:41,200
this is posted on the Forum by yeah sorry man lot sure um Amazon

490
00:35:39,200 --> 00:35:46,520
says it may increase its Prime membership fee by as much as $40 so it's

491
00:35:44,040 --> 00:35:50,119
80 bucks a year right now which is about what I don't know $6 a month or

492
00:35:48,200 --> 00:35:56,359
something like that if you extrapolate it out uh or break it down or whatever

493
00:35:52,880 --> 00:35:56,359
it is you're going to do

494
00:35:56,640 --> 00:36:01,520
um a lot of people super upset about

495
00:35:59,680 --> 00:36:05,680
this so for those of you who don't live in a country where Prime is an option

496
00:36:03,359 --> 00:36:10,119
like the UK or the US Amazon Prime entitles you to a few things number one

497
00:36:07,920 --> 00:36:13,839
and this is the big one is free shipping so you get two-day shipping on

498
00:36:11,760 --> 00:36:20,680
qualifying items and then slower shipping on other items and it is

499
00:36:16,520 --> 00:36:22,880
unlimited you could ship a pen a day

500
00:36:20,680 --> 00:36:27,240
every day for a year to your house and they would have to do it and that would

501
00:36:24,680 --> 00:36:30,400
be included with the fee so for I mean of course with a game with something

502
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:34,720
like this it's a numbers game for every person who ships something every day

503
00:36:32,480 --> 00:36:38,040
you're going to have hopefully someone who ships something once every six

504
00:36:36,480 --> 00:36:41,079
months and just bought the Prime Membership on an impulse and you're

505
00:36:39,560 --> 00:36:44,400
mostly just taking money from them to subsidize and because it's easy yeah

506
00:36:43,119 --> 00:36:53,880
because it's easy because you don't have to think about it anymore and then you subsidize with that um but guys shipping

507
00:36:51,240 --> 00:36:56,839
is expensive oh okay sorry I hadn't finished going through the benefits so

508
00:36:55,200 --> 00:37:01,920
benefit number two is you get access to the Kindle uh lending library which

509
00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:07,599
allows you to borrow one qualifying book a month out of the sort of the pool of

510
00:37:04,960 --> 00:37:11,040
lending books and basically amounts to a free book per month there's no time

511
00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:15,000
limit on how long you can keep that one but I guess you probably have to give it back before you can borrow the next one

512
00:37:13,720 --> 00:37:19,200
I've never actually used it I don't have a Prime membership and then benefit

513
00:37:16,720 --> 00:37:22,000
number three is access to an unlimited amount of Amazon's on demand video

514
00:37:21,040 --> 00:37:28,400
streaming service so for 80 bucks a year if you

515
00:37:25,839 --> 00:37:31,599
consider and okay it's not up to the caliber of Netflix but when you consider

516
00:37:30,079 --> 00:37:36,319
that you're paying $6 a month for Netflix and that's just video streaming

517
00:37:34,319 --> 00:37:41,599
or if you consider that a subscription to audible.com uh one of our sponsors

518
00:37:39,119 --> 00:37:45,280
actually is going to cost I actually can't even

519
00:37:42,720 --> 00:37:49,200
remember that's embarrassing so what is what did I get my free Audi book uh yeah

520
00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:54,599
whatever I can't remember anyway the point is either way if you sign up with our code you get free audiobook yeah so

521
00:37:52,359 --> 00:37:58,760
yeah yeah exactly head over to audible.com anyway so the point is okay

522
00:37:57,520 --> 00:38:02,800
okay so if you're getting a free book a month and you're getting free shipping

523
00:38:01,000 --> 00:38:09,680
on everything even if you shipped yourself so let's say they increase at $40 to 120 bucks even if you shipped one

524
00:38:07,000 --> 00:38:15,400
thing a month you're still paying about what US Canadians pay to ship anything

525
00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:18,760
for every thing that it is and if you can't find one thing a month that you

526
00:38:17,079 --> 00:38:24,119
could buy on Amazon especially with two-day delivery instead of somewhere

527
00:38:20,599 --> 00:38:25,720
else then yeah it doesn't make sense for

528
00:38:24,119 --> 00:38:29,160
you but I just find it hard to believe that this is such an enormous deal

529
00:38:27,599 --> 00:38:32,800
breaker for everyone this is something people don't understand shipping is

530
00:38:30,920 --> 00:38:36,400
really expensive someone someone in the chat says there's UK fashion site that

531
00:38:34,720 --> 00:38:40,760
has free worldwide delivery with no minimum spend and it only costs about

532
00:38:38,280 --> 00:38:47,200
$10 10 EUR a year to get next day shipping although there it's clothing so

533
00:38:43,800 --> 00:38:49,119
good for you Royal post is cheap and

534
00:38:47,200 --> 00:38:54,000
it's clothing so there's probably massive markup and margin anyways so

535
00:38:51,680 --> 00:38:57,760
shipping is expensive and if you think that you're getting shipping for free

536
00:38:56,240 --> 00:39:04,160
think again you're probably paying you are paying for it you are always paying

537
00:39:00,400 --> 00:39:06,520
for shipping somewhere so let's take um

538
00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:11,960
let's take Asian countries for example where worldwide shipping costs like a

539
00:39:09,839 --> 00:39:16,640
buck you know you can buy stuff on Deal extreme for like a $150 with free

540
00:39:14,800 --> 00:39:22,400
shipping anywhere in the world how does that work subsidies they are getting

541
00:39:19,200 --> 00:39:25,359
subsidized I mean we often joke that it

542
00:39:22,400 --> 00:39:29,720
costs less to ship something from Britain to our house than to sh

543
00:39:27,599 --> 00:39:33,280
something down the street inite of the fact that if someone ship something from

544
00:39:31,400 --> 00:39:37,880
Great Britain to our house it will still have to cross the entirety of Canada

545
00:39:35,960 --> 00:39:41,920
never mind just down our own Street in order to get to us which means Canada

546
00:39:40,040 --> 00:39:45,920
Post is actually carrying it across the country but if I were to send something

547
00:39:43,720 --> 00:39:52,520
to Halifax I would probably be spending 15 20 bucks minimum so how does it work

548
00:39:49,119 --> 00:39:56,599
subsidies in countries where shipping is

549
00:39:52,520 --> 00:39:58,440
cheap you are paying for that subsidy so

550
00:39:56,599 --> 00:40:02,760
that someone can pay some other country's shipping company in order to

551
00:40:00,560 --> 00:40:06,520
move it for them once it gets there so you're paying for it somewhere for

552
00:40:04,359 --> 00:40:10,560
companies like Amazon where they're shipping within the US where shipping is

553
00:40:08,200 --> 00:40:14,760
much cheaper than Canada as low as about 250 to 350 per package this is based on

554
00:40:13,440 --> 00:40:19,560
some numbers that I shouldn't have access to but that's what some a very

555
00:40:17,000 --> 00:40:24,119
large company like Amazon or Newegg is probably paying with someone like a

556
00:40:21,760 --> 00:40:29,480
courier that three letters in their name and sometimes they drop things okay so

557
00:40:26,599 --> 00:40:34,160
it can cost as little as 2 to 350 maybe about bucks all right maybe 450 for

558
00:40:32,720 --> 00:40:39,720
something let's say the size of like a mouse like like a basic rate that means

559
00:40:37,880 --> 00:40:43,400
that you paid for it somewhere somewhere whether it's a

560
00:40:41,720 --> 00:40:46,520
membership or whether it's in the margin of the product and anyone who thinks

561
00:40:44,880 --> 00:40:53,720
that the margin in electronics is good enough to cover that I I don't know what to tell you

562
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:57,680
it's not it's not at all so that's pretty much all there is to it I fully

563
00:40:55,359 --> 00:41:01,720
support Amazon increasing the rate in order to make the business make sense

564
00:40:59,520 --> 00:41:05,400
they can't just bleed money on the prime program it has to make sense for them

565
00:41:03,800 --> 00:41:09,280
and if shipping costs go up because let's face it gas isn't getting cheaper

566
00:41:07,680 --> 00:41:14,599
then that's what's going to happen deal with it it's still a fantastic deal and

567
00:41:12,599 --> 00:41:20,520
all you people complaining about it can just because up here in Canada it sorry

568
00:41:18,160 --> 00:41:25,160
yeah or just don't buy it so don't buy it or don't complain because here in

569
00:41:23,119 --> 00:41:29,119
Canada do you have any idea what we would give to pay $120 a month for free

570
00:41:27,680 --> 00:41:33,560
shipping from anywhere it's $120 a year I was like I

571
00:41:32,119 --> 00:41:40,520
wouldn't do that for $120 a year you could have free

572
00:41:36,680 --> 00:41:43,760
shipping from Amazon.com boom done well

573
00:41:40,520 --> 00:41:45,160
yeah definitely do I don't know sucks I

574
00:41:43,760 --> 00:41:51,880
don't bu anything terrible yeah the pricing sucks yeah but yeah i' I'd be

575
00:41:48,119 --> 00:41:54,680
completely down um I I okay from another

576
00:41:51,880 --> 00:42:03,319
perspective I would be not stoked that my price was doubling it's not doubling

577
00:41:57,440 --> 00:42:06,640
$40 to 79 up to 120 or up to1 1999 no no

578
00:42:03,319 --> 00:42:08,280
no by up to $40 from 79 yeah sorry it's

579
00:42:06,640 --> 00:42:14,800
awkward wording in the dou okay so not quite doubling but still by 50% yeah

580
00:42:11,359 --> 00:42:16,640
like I still wouldn't be stoked but I'd

581
00:42:14,800 --> 00:42:20,000
probably still do it yeah and I think it's one of those things where there's a

582
00:42:17,960 --> 00:42:22,839
whole lot of complaining that goes on but then people I think a lot people are

583
00:42:21,520 --> 00:42:28,079
actually yeah and like they haven't changed their price for what N9 years

584
00:42:24,680 --> 00:42:29,559
yeah like dude

585
00:42:28,079 --> 00:42:34,079
prices for them were not the same N9 years ago I don't know what to say

586
00:42:32,760 --> 00:42:38,079
that's what you that's that's what you get with physical stuff like I don't know if Netflix is necessarily going to

587
00:42:37,079 --> 00:42:42,640
become more expensive in a short period of time as

588
00:42:41,200 --> 00:42:46,960
long as they're still growing as long as their user base is still increasing

589
00:42:44,599 --> 00:42:50,960
dramatically bandwidth costs are going down unless they have to start paying

590
00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:54,000
isps unless they have to start paying ISP but they're going to keep fighting

591
00:42:52,280 --> 00:42:57,680
that they're going to keep fighting that and they're they're changing laws

592
00:42:55,480 --> 00:43:01,480
already or trying to so I guess we'll see not a huge deal are you going to do

593
00:42:59,720 --> 00:43:06,000
your thing uh I'm going to do that after the next topic let's do one more topic

594
00:43:03,400 --> 00:43:10,920
um do we want to do the thing yeah the problem is that I forgot to uh I forgot

595
00:43:08,240 --> 00:43:15,559
to grab the the graphic for it so I'm just going to have to fire up leg Gmail

596
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:22,240
here all right and then go ahead and enter the password here and then enter

597
00:43:19,000 --> 00:43:24,319
the verification code here oh

598
00:43:22,240 --> 00:43:31,200
fortunately I have my Pebble back 189 582 uh you know I saw so much potential

599
00:43:28,280 --> 00:43:34,319
in the qualcom talk yeah really saw a lot of potential if you guys haven't

600
00:43:32,440 --> 00:43:40,440
seen my review of The Talk already even if you're not that interested in smart

601
00:43:37,760 --> 00:43:45,160
watches well one deal with it because they're going to be a huge huge thing in

602
00:43:42,599 --> 00:43:49,440
the next five years and number two it's an interesting video to watch cuz like

603
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:53,079
not blowing my own horn here or anything but I think it's one of the better

604
00:43:50,559 --> 00:43:57,960
reviews I ever did um I spent a lot of time with the product I spent a lot of

605
00:43:54,680 --> 00:43:59,760
time trying to figure out um everything

606
00:43:57,960 --> 00:44:03,319
that was good and everything that could be improved about it to the point where

607
00:44:01,880 --> 00:44:06,800
I think it should give you a pretty good idea of where we're at with SmartWatches

608
00:44:05,359 --> 00:44:11,760
right now so at least it'll give you some context for what's coming in the

609
00:44:09,359 --> 00:44:15,720
future all right so let's go ahead wow that's brilliant download I know isn't

610
00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:21,520
it fantastic every once in a while he just makes gold I know all right so this

611
00:44:18,839 --> 00:44:26,359
is a new segment on the show if you like this segment let us know if you think

612
00:44:23,839 --> 00:44:30,160
this segment is stupid then uh let us know that too so we are going to try to

613
00:44:28,040 --> 00:44:33,960
find one thing per week I know this is a tech show and it's mostly focused on

614
00:44:32,480 --> 00:44:39,160
technology but we're going to find something that is not technology that is

615
00:44:36,200 --> 00:44:46,280
more important than whatever is going on in the life of Canadian pop sensation

616
00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:49,480
Justin Bieber so this week is and I have

617
00:44:46,280 --> 00:44:52,800
been corrected it is not the Ukraine it

618
00:44:49,480 --> 00:44:56,359
is Ukraine this week there is a whole

619
00:44:52,800 --> 00:44:59,200
lot going down in Ukraine right now and

620
00:44:56,359 --> 00:45:03,680
and Venezuela and in Venezuela um Ukraine is the one that's making a lot

621
00:45:00,880 --> 00:45:07,960
of a lot more headlines at the moment uh just because there's I mean there's

622
00:45:05,599 --> 00:45:12,599
reactions going on like uh for example there are Ukrainian athletes that are

623
00:45:10,119 --> 00:45:17,599
just leaving leaving the games just to go home and show their solidarity so uh

624
00:45:15,280 --> 00:45:22,800
skier and her coach who was also her dad if I recall correctly um are just kind

625
00:45:20,480 --> 00:45:25,960
of heading back to show their support before their event was over yeah before

626
00:45:24,640 --> 00:45:31,000
the event was over they're just like you know what screw this they need us back

627
00:45:28,880 --> 00:45:35,839
home we're going to head back there the the death tolls being reported by the

628
00:45:32,800 --> 00:45:37,720
media I think are in the 35 range but

629
00:45:35,839 --> 00:45:42,599
protesters are saying that they are higher than that uh Health Ministry has

630
00:45:39,559 --> 00:45:44,040
said 77 people were killed and 577 were

631
00:45:42,599 --> 00:45:50,680
injured but activists are saying it's much higher you know what's really scary about that number is that when I looked

632
00:45:47,680 --> 00:45:52,319
at it yesterday morning it was 35 if I

633
00:45:50,680 --> 00:45:58,400
recall correctly that was what was being reported so it's and then the day before

634
00:45:54,839 --> 00:46:00,319
that I believe it was 13 or 11 or

635
00:45:58,400 --> 00:46:02,960
something like that so it's it's going up very quickly the violence is

636
00:46:01,640 --> 00:46:07,160
escalating it's one of those things where on this show we don't typically

637
00:46:05,359 --> 00:46:11,119
take a stance one way or the other but there are certain things I think we can

638
00:46:08,920 --> 00:46:16,400
all agree on uh one of them is that the value of human life is something that we

639
00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:21,200
should all respect and people shouldn't be dying over a conflict the police

640
00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:26,400
shouldn't be dying the pro testers shouldn't be dying and none of those

641
00:46:23,640 --> 00:46:29,400
things are right and so it's just something that is more important than

642
00:46:27,880 --> 00:46:34,680
Justin Bieber in the world right now we're not going to sort of cover this in

643
00:46:31,240 --> 00:46:38,559
too much depth yeah we're not we're not

644
00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:39,960
like in the field reporters we we don't

645
00:46:38,559 --> 00:46:43,440
we do Tech stuff so we just want to bring it up so that you guys can go

646
00:46:41,720 --> 00:46:47,160
check it out probably in your own time and develop your own opinions about it

647
00:46:45,520 --> 00:46:51,920
be aware of it is all we're really saying and don't worry too much about

648
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:57,280
the be although I heard that the US has to take him back now yeah cuz we won

649
00:46:54,240 --> 00:46:58,680
hockey yeah

650
00:46:57,280 --> 00:47:04,280
if you guys didn't hear about this there was a billboard that said um loser keeps

651
00:47:02,280 --> 00:47:07,920
Bieber or something like that and then it was updated later it was a video

652
00:47:06,000 --> 00:47:11,119
billboard so what did they say bad terrible bet something like that that

653
00:47:09,720 --> 00:47:15,359
was a that was a Bad Bet or something like that and then there was a American

654
00:47:13,040 --> 00:47:22,400
Eagle with a golden chain around it saying bber and I was

655
00:47:18,920 --> 00:47:23,319
like yikes it was pretty funny it was

656
00:47:22,400 --> 00:47:29,559
pretty good and that was posted somewhere in the states I don't remember where all right so guys I just wanted to

657
00:47:27,760 --> 00:47:34,359
cover this very briefly as part of our sponsor segment so Hotspot Shield the

658
00:47:32,000 --> 00:47:38,319
easy fast way to get set up with a VPN vpns are great for all kinds of things

659
00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:42,880
making it more difficult for websites to figure out who you are and where you

660
00:47:39,839 --> 00:47:43,920
live making it more difficult for um

661
00:47:42,880 --> 00:47:48,359
wait I don't know where I was going with that making it easier for you to enjoy

662
00:47:46,240 --> 00:47:52,079
content that is geo-restricted so whether you just want to like I don't

663
00:47:49,760 --> 00:47:55,200
know comedy central.com you want to like watch some videos and it's us region

664
00:47:54,040 --> 00:47:59,359
locked and you happen to live in Australia or Canada or great bit Britain

665
00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:03,640
or anywhere in the world you want to enjoy that content Hotspot Shield can

666
00:48:01,599 --> 00:48:08,760
fake your IP so that you appear to be coming from the US and allow you to do

667
00:48:06,000 --> 00:48:13,200
that it can also allow you to circumvent things like firewalls I don't

668
00:48:10,720 --> 00:48:16,240
necessarily encourage this use of it and it's probably terrible I'm talking about

669
00:48:14,599 --> 00:48:19,319
it in a sponsor spot but we've had quite a few people post on the lineus tech

670
00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:25,359
tips Forum that they use it to circumvent uh blocks at their school Y

671
00:48:22,400 --> 00:48:29,280
and sort of get around content blocks so content blocks at schools content blocks

672
00:48:27,119 --> 00:48:32,480
within countries can allow you to access all kinds of stuff that you couldn't

673
00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:36,480
before one really good thing is you can access Sochi Winter Games content

674
00:48:34,760 --> 00:48:40,480
whether you're wanting to appear that you're from I don't know the UK or the

675
00:48:38,359 --> 00:48:43,760
us if there isn't a stream of whatever event it is that you want to see in your

676
00:48:42,079 --> 00:48:47,000
country and it's region locked then you can go ahead and just get around that

677
00:48:45,119 --> 00:48:50,160
with Hotspot Shield so the elite membership is really the one I'd

678
00:48:48,359 --> 00:48:53,520
recommend the free one is AD supported and does have a lot of ads but the elite

679
00:48:52,000 --> 00:49:00,960
one really isn't that expensive for a VPN and you can get 20% off it if you

680
00:48:56,799 --> 00:49:03,200
head over to bit. lehs share and then

681
00:49:00,960 --> 00:49:09,119
use offer code Linus when you sign up for it and this is pretty cool I am

682
00:49:06,640 --> 00:49:13,240
giving away 10 codes I was going to do it live on the show but I realize now

683
00:49:11,799 --> 00:49:20,520
that that's going to be a little bit challenging and it's going to be really timec consuming so maybe what I'll do is

684
00:49:17,720 --> 00:49:25,200
I'll enter everyone's name into a hat um at the end of the show and then uh I'll

685
00:49:23,880 --> 00:49:28,559
I'll post the winners on you know what I'll post the winners in the thread so

686
00:49:26,880 --> 00:49:32,559
sponsored giveaway from Hotspot Shield thread on the lus tech tips Forum guys

687
00:49:30,520 --> 00:49:38,000
if you aren't entered already all you have to do for a chance to win a six

688
00:49:35,119 --> 00:49:43,000
Monon elite membership is post in that thread with a screenshot of you with the

689
00:49:40,760 --> 00:49:46,559
trial of elite installed and then you have a chance to win a free six-month

690
00:49:45,200 --> 00:49:53,280
membership to it that's pretty legit yeah it's actually a really good giveaway

691
00:49:48,799 --> 00:49:55,280
yeah all right so topic moving on next

692
00:49:53,280 --> 00:49:58,040
we have you know it's hard to have a better than Bieber segment when

693
00:49:56,799 --> 00:50:05,760
everything in your show is more important than Justin Bieber maybe we should just rename the show The W show

694
00:50:02,559 --> 00:50:05,760
better than Bieber better than

695
00:50:05,920 --> 00:50:11,400
Bieber okay okay uh actually guys should

696
00:50:09,000 --> 00:50:11,400
we do a

697
00:50:12,880 --> 00:50:18,319
t-shirt the W show better than be like

698
00:50:16,079 --> 00:50:21,760
really small so when people like cuz I mean the Okay the reason we did a couple

699
00:50:20,000 --> 00:50:27,400
t-shirt designs so they're on District Lines um and the reason that we ended up

700
00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:31,640
with kind of a a wano logo so this logo right here in the middle of a shirt but

701
00:50:29,319 --> 00:50:35,599
without the text the wow was cuz we figured people probably wouldn't want um

702
00:50:34,599 --> 00:50:40,680
you could have like you know the L detective logo that's on the back you could have like hashtag better than

703
00:50:38,839 --> 00:50:45,400
Bieber hash better than Bieber so we didn't want people asking our t-shirt

704
00:50:42,799 --> 00:50:49,079
wearers what the heck's a w show because if we put better than Bieber on it then

705
00:50:47,599 --> 00:50:55,559
people won't have to ask what's the W show they'll just be like oh yeah whatever it is that symbol thing yeah

706
00:50:53,720 --> 00:51:00,960
whatever that is probably okay yeah sure gotcha gotcha

707
00:50:58,119 --> 00:51:07,760
so there you go guys uh we have our bro fist design which is that yeah and then

708
00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:12,119
there's also uh W stealth so oh there we go there you go

709
00:51:10,400 --> 00:51:16,760
so w stealth looks like that so w stealth so just picture it with like a

710
00:51:14,280 --> 00:51:21,599
little like better than Bieber right here we should totally do that all right

711
00:51:18,720 --> 00:51:21,599
moving on to our next

712
00:51:21,760 --> 00:51:27,200
topic we also have a I'm super stoked

713
00:51:24,839 --> 00:51:31,880
for the Adventure Time One where is this thread why does this

714
00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:38,599
happen I looked at this like right before the uh is GNA happen to

715
00:51:35,319 --> 00:51:40,680
me yes we got to figure out a way for

716
00:51:38,599 --> 00:51:44,160
the threads that we uh I don't know if that's a Google doc thing or what no no

717
00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:48,880
the issue is that the thread's been moved or merged I run into this once in

718
00:51:46,720 --> 00:51:54,839
a while all right so this was posted by neuron knite on the Forum and all that's

719
00:51:51,760 --> 00:51:57,040
being said is that Elon Musk the founder

720
00:51:54,839 --> 00:52:02,440
of Tesla among other things has talked to Apple but that an

721
00:51:59,400 --> 00:52:05,280
acquisition of Tesla is

722
00:52:02,440 --> 00:52:10,880
unlikely in fact what's the word on the street is what's much more likely is a

723
00:52:08,480 --> 00:52:15,000
collaboration between the companies which could manifest as a number of

724
00:52:12,839 --> 00:52:21,280
different things and the one that I would like to see and this is something

725
00:52:16,880 --> 00:52:23,200
that I called back when the iPhone 3G

726
00:52:21,280 --> 00:52:27,720
was a big deal because this was an argument like an ongoing argument

727
00:52:25,119 --> 00:52:32,760
between me and cameraman man the old ncx cameraman who did all my editing back

728
00:52:29,319 --> 00:52:36,200
then he was like what's Apple's next big

729
00:52:32,760 --> 00:52:38,400
Direction past smartphones and to me

730
00:52:36,200 --> 00:52:44,680
tablets are more of like an evolutionary step from a smart it's a big smartphone

731
00:52:40,400 --> 00:52:48,559
and I said I car and then I home because

732
00:52:44,680 --> 00:52:51,079
to me those were two things that could

733
00:52:48,559 --> 00:52:54,680
really truly benefit from the things that apple is so good at and for all the

734
00:52:53,240 --> 00:53:00,720
people that want to hate on Apple all they want good for you fine

735
00:52:56,960 --> 00:53:03,480
do it but you cannot argue with how good

736
00:53:00,720 --> 00:53:07,359
they are at taking existing Concepts and Technologies I mean Logan's video has

737
00:53:05,760 --> 00:53:11,160
Apple ever really invented every anything is actually a pretty good watch

738
00:53:09,720 --> 00:53:16,480
you should go check it out but what Apple's good at is taking things that

739
00:53:13,359 --> 00:53:20,240
are already invented and making them all

740
00:53:16,480 --> 00:53:24,000
work together in a way that is different

741
00:53:20,240 --> 00:53:27,839
and easier what could use a shakeup more

742
00:53:24,000 --> 00:53:30,720
than the car industry

743
00:53:27,839 --> 00:53:35,839
BMW's new connected car is pretty freaking cool y that's cool but do you

744
00:53:33,480 --> 00:53:40,119
think that apple with their expertise could probably do it better yeah and

745
00:53:37,920 --> 00:53:43,240
then hopefully Google will step in as they are and everybody's going to step

746
00:53:41,720 --> 00:53:48,960
in and blah blah blah blah blah I don't think it's going to look like that I would love to see this I mean maybe not

747
00:53:47,040 --> 00:53:53,319
quite like this and that's apple design would be a lot better than that yeah it

748
00:53:51,200 --> 00:53:58,000
would this is just like a like a like a silly fan mockup so don't worry too much

749
00:53:55,359 --> 00:54:04,400
about that but but something like a like a car that was just truly intelligent

750
00:54:00,799 --> 00:54:06,920
and upgradeable and app friendly I mean

751
00:54:04,400 --> 00:54:15,000
that's the problem with the car guys is they all want the 2013 model to not be

752
00:54:13,000 --> 00:54:19,079
upgradeable because they they want to build in that incremental thing they can

753
00:54:16,799 --> 00:54:23,880
do with the 2014 model and Apple's as guilty of this as anyone but to a much

754
00:54:21,799 --> 00:54:28,440
lesser degree than the car guys I think in terms of of being closed off and not

755
00:54:26,520 --> 00:54:32,960
allowing additional functionality over time and not wanting to give people the

756
00:54:30,480 --> 00:54:37,960
ability to mod and use the things the way that they want to I mean that was

757
00:54:34,799 --> 00:54:39,920
the whole thing with the iPhone was I

758
00:54:37,960 --> 00:54:43,599
mean Apple talked about this a lot way back in the day is we didn't even

759
00:54:41,559 --> 00:54:49,200
imagine that people were going to create this app for it that's true again though

760
00:54:46,960 --> 00:54:53,440
um not to bring it back to the BMW car but the BMW car doesn't really have apps

761
00:54:51,319 --> 00:54:57,160
really installed on it already you plug your phone in and then it grabs apis

762
00:54:55,119 --> 00:55:01,079
from those apps right so it's not like it's going to go out a date and that was

763
00:54:59,480 --> 00:55:04,599
actually one of the big things is as your phone updates that's all you need

764
00:55:02,960 --> 00:55:08,359
to update and then you'll still have more functionality yeah but then a

765
00:55:06,640 --> 00:55:12,160
problem with that too is that it's not built into the car and it is just apis

766
00:55:10,599 --> 00:55:17,280
yes so you're not getting that full fluid functionality that you could expect from an Apple car or even say a

767
00:55:15,640 --> 00:55:22,319
Google car or something like that whereas Apple it'll be seamless you'll

768
00:55:19,760 --> 00:55:26,720
go from using Siri in your car to using Siri on your phone to using Siri on your

769
00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:31,640
if they ever get around to making a t TV on your TV and then the one that and

770
00:55:29,119 --> 00:55:37,799
this was this was the crazy the crazy prediction I made cuz he was like I car

771
00:55:34,760 --> 00:55:39,599
no but maybe and then when I said I home

772
00:55:37,799 --> 00:55:47,400
he was like no that's the stupidest thing I've ever heard I home to me what

773
00:55:43,920 --> 00:55:50,319
it will be is it will be a single piece

774
00:55:47,400 --> 00:55:54,280
it will be an actual unit that just gets dropped onto a piece of property and is

775
00:55:52,480 --> 00:55:58,200
fully integrated with Google's new thing we'll

776
00:55:56,520 --> 00:56:02,720
talk about later that could even work incredibly well and he was like no

777
00:56:01,039 --> 00:56:06,799
because people won't give up the personalization and the customizability

778
00:56:04,720 --> 00:56:12,799
of their phone to which I or of their home to which I replied they gave it up

779
00:56:09,839 --> 00:56:17,520
with their phones before the iPhone it was stuff like the Motorola Razor in a

780
00:56:15,559 --> 00:56:22,280
variety of different colors Paris Hilton pink or whatever the what that doesn't

781
00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:25,720
because the layout of every home on the street would probably be pretty much the

782
00:56:23,640 --> 00:56:30,200
same you look at what Apple does bring one model Market because of well the the

783
00:56:28,240 --> 00:56:34,200
layout doesn't you Oh you mean like the entire building is a unit the entire

784
00:56:32,039 --> 00:56:39,039
building I think this is this is this is my crazy future prediction Apple will

785
00:56:36,599 --> 00:56:43,319
have the iHome which you order through your contractor or whatever it is and it

786
00:56:41,559 --> 00:56:47,000
arrives on a flat bed and they put it down on your property and that's it and

787
00:56:45,480 --> 00:56:50,880
it's going to have all kinds of really crazy cool technology so you know Nest

788
00:56:49,440 --> 00:56:55,000
eat your heart out because this is going to have controlled thermostat controlled

789
00:56:53,160 --> 00:56:58,480
you know washer dryer and it's going to be crazy expensive if you ever have to

790
00:56:57,160 --> 00:57:02,480
upgrade anything about it you're going to be locked into that particular model

791
00:57:00,240 --> 00:57:06,720
in the apple way but it'll all work together in a way that's very cool more

792
00:57:04,480 --> 00:57:13,240
being like IE apartment I I don't see them doing entire buildings especially

793
00:57:09,520 --> 00:57:15,280
apartment because like a house that's

794
00:57:13,240 --> 00:57:19,000
kind of insane um another thing that you could do though is have it be a module

795
00:57:16,960 --> 00:57:21,920
attachment like like you know how air conditioners sometimes if you have huge

796
00:57:20,440 --> 00:57:25,520
ones they sit outside your house yep could be like your iome module and then

797
00:57:24,000 --> 00:57:29,359
you could use something like the Google thing we're gonna talk about later I

798
00:57:27,559 --> 00:57:33,760
don't want to get too into right now to map your home out so that it can then

799
00:57:31,480 --> 00:57:38,200
know what's up in your phone in your home and then have the device that s

800
00:57:36,160 --> 00:57:42,760
sits external or even internal of your house um control everything that's

801
00:57:40,559 --> 00:57:46,319
inside whether or not it is technically Apple everywhere I could see that

802
00:57:44,920 --> 00:57:51,319
happening too it's interesting yeah people are hating on my prediction but I stand by it we'll see I don't I don't

803
00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:55,559
I'm not going to go with your prediction that's fine I know and I know that's

804
00:57:53,119 --> 00:58:01,160
fine yeah if we if we are if we're still sitting on this couch in 20 years we'll

805
00:57:58,599 --> 00:58:04,200
see I think we'll hopefully be sitting somewhere else yeah hopefully a

806
00:58:02,599 --> 00:58:11,280
different hopefully a much better kind of crap my back is like so s

807
00:58:08,240 --> 00:58:13,039
terrible like oh this couch probably

808
00:58:11,280 --> 00:58:17,319
smells really bad in spite of the fact it do that we haven't owned it that

809
00:58:17,319 --> 00:58:23,559
long it's so horrible okay all right so oh yeah one other possible collaboration

810
00:58:22,200 --> 00:58:28,559
would even just be something like building a a ginormous awesome fact for

811
00:58:26,559 --> 00:58:32,079
Batteries because that's one thing that Apple has really pushed forward is

812
00:58:30,200 --> 00:58:35,880
Battery Technology and that's something that Tesla desperately needs to be

813
00:58:33,880 --> 00:58:38,599
pushed forward so them getting together and working on that together could be

814
00:58:37,280 --> 00:58:42,400
extremely exciting for the future because really cool as you'll know if

815
00:58:40,319 --> 00:58:47,359
you watched my Brenton hydrogen reactor video not that long ago fuel cell just

816
00:58:44,559 --> 00:58:52,440
ain't quite there yet not so much uh should we do bit torr

817
00:58:50,680 --> 00:58:55,160
live sure or do you want to jump into that Google one real quick just so

818
00:58:53,799 --> 00:58:58,559
people can know what I'm talking about yeah sure let's do that

819
00:58:56,799 --> 00:59:04,200
we won't we won't leave them hanging on this yeah so so this is Google Project

820
00:59:01,200 --> 00:59:06,599
Tango um which the idea is there there's

821
00:59:04,200 --> 00:59:09,920
a video and honestly I I I don't know if we should watch probably just watch it

822
00:59:08,119 --> 00:59:12,720
the it's fairly long it's three minutes it's not that bad all right why don't we

823
00:59:11,559 --> 00:59:17,319
just watch it guys we're gonna watch this video together all

824
00:59:17,680 --> 00:59:25,520
right my name is Johnny Lee and I work in the advanced technology and projects

825
00:59:22,280 --> 00:59:27,559
group at Google our small sorry I paused

826
00:59:25,520 --> 00:59:32,640
it I'm just adjusting the volume for you all team here based in California has

827
00:59:30,240 --> 00:59:36,880
been working with universities research Labs and Industrial Partners to harvest

828
00:59:34,920 --> 00:59:41,440
the last 10 years of research in robotics and computer vision to

829
00:59:38,839 --> 00:59:47,920
concentrate that technology into a very unique mobile phone we are physical

830
00:59:44,839 --> 00:59:50,000
beings that live in a 3D world yet

831
00:59:47,920 --> 00:59:54,799
mobile devices today assume that the physical world ends at the boundaries of

832
00:59:52,359 --> 01:00:00,039
the screen our goal is to give mobile devices a human scale understanding of

833
00:59:57,280 --> 01:00:03,039
space and motion is going to allow people to interact with their

834
01:00:01,280 --> 01:00:09,039
environment in just a fundamentally different way and we can prototype

835
01:00:06,079 --> 01:00:11,839
coule take us months or even years before because we didn't have this

836
01:00:10,480 --> 01:00:15,880
technology readily available that's what he sees what happens if you have all of

837
01:00:13,640 --> 01:00:20,200
these pieces in A phone how does that change what a phone

838
01:00:17,799 --> 01:00:22,920
is okay maybe we don't have to watch the created a

839
01:00:23,000 --> 01:00:28,359
prototype that gives you guys some idea of what's what's up

840
01:00:26,839 --> 01:00:32,960
um and then the rest of the video is talking about the excitement they have

841
01:00:30,039 --> 01:00:36,960
about development for this technology and the Prototype or well devkit devices

842
01:00:36,000 --> 01:00:43,000
that they have built I think there's 2,000 correct I think there's 200 200 I

843
01:00:40,079 --> 01:00:48,319
think so we need to sign up for one good luck but sure I will make something in

844
01:00:44,799 --> 01:00:50,200
unity okay outside of hours I will make

845
01:00:48,319 --> 01:00:53,559
something up to you I want one of these things I want to mount it to the front

846
01:00:51,720 --> 01:00:58,079
of an Oculus do or do you just PL want to mount it yeah okay yeah mainly mount

847
01:00:56,640 --> 01:01:02,839
it to the front of an Oculus though because you know people have been mounting webcams okay so let's talk a

848
01:01:00,640 --> 01:01:05,319
little bit about what it is more uh they've been working with tons of

849
01:01:03,880 --> 01:01:09,400
universities research Labs and Industrial Partners spanning across nine

850
01:01:07,200 --> 01:01:12,480
countries around the world um they've been doing tons of different stuff and

851
01:01:11,079 --> 01:01:17,240
the goal of Project Tango is to give mobile devices a human scale

852
01:01:15,079 --> 01:01:21,000
understanding of space and motion a direct quote okay yeah I didn't know if

853
01:01:18,920 --> 01:01:25,200
that was in the video or not um I do not have audio there it's a direct quote

854
01:01:22,400 --> 01:01:28,359
from them um it's customized Hardware blah blah blah blah blah basically you

855
01:01:26,960 --> 01:01:31,799
can walk around with this thing and it can 3D map your environment this is

856
01:01:30,319 --> 01:01:39,119
supposed to be good because you can translate your position orientation and

857
01:01:34,880 --> 01:01:43,240
depth to apps um written in Java C C++

858
01:01:39,119 --> 01:01:46,359
and unity Unity is a very good engine

859
01:01:43,240 --> 01:01:48,000
for doing stuff with oculus rift so

860
01:01:46,359 --> 01:01:52,640
they're looking into this as like you can help people that are blind you can

861
01:01:50,039 --> 01:01:56,760
help uh uh map environment so you could you could look at a different area in

862
01:01:54,440 --> 01:02:00,799
your house and then digitally put in Furniture which you can already do but

863
01:01:58,279 --> 01:02:05,400
not very well this you could do it very effectively um you you could find things

864
01:02:03,200 --> 01:02:09,240
in a store with it more easily you could you could map out an environment in your

865
01:02:07,160 --> 01:02:13,880
you could go into your garage empty the floor map it out with your phone hook up

866
01:02:11,920 --> 01:02:18,839
on an Oculus and then have that whole area generated to be something that it

867
01:02:15,599 --> 01:02:20,480
isn't right now which is really cool or

868
01:02:18,839 --> 01:02:25,160
you could even do things like I mean a garage cleaning is something that you

869
01:02:22,279 --> 01:02:28,640
know homeowners like myself are hate and wish that something just do it for me

870
01:02:26,960 --> 01:02:33,319
what if I could just map out my garage and my phone could tell me the most

871
01:02:29,960 --> 01:02:34,760
optimal place to put everything why not

872
01:02:33,319 --> 01:02:38,000
someone could do that that's definitely doable there could be an app for that

873
01:02:36,319 --> 01:02:41,200
there's also scary implementations um how do you know this

874
01:02:39,880 --> 01:02:44,880
thing is on how do you know it's not porting that information the NSA it's

875
01:02:43,319 --> 01:02:48,160
going to help people attract you blah blah blah blah blah yeah there's all the

876
01:02:46,400 --> 01:02:52,200
terrible terrible hiding behind something it could it could show people

877
01:02:50,680 --> 01:02:57,200
that you're hiding behind something like there's there's terrible stuff obviously

878
01:02:54,760 --> 01:03:05,680
like with everything we report ever nowadays I know but um Oculus yeah I can

879
01:03:03,160 --> 01:03:10,039
see this being super super cool for VR um because something we talked about

880
01:03:07,119 --> 01:03:15,520
multiple times in the past actually was um Oculus Rift laser tag essentially oh

881
01:03:13,160 --> 01:03:21,279
wouldn't that be amazing you map the whole house with your phone yeah then

882
01:03:18,319 --> 01:03:27,079
you throw on Oculus with like laptop backpacks and like oh yeah you could

883
01:03:24,279 --> 01:03:33,200
even like you could get like armed up and uh get like all kitted out like Jeff

884
01:03:30,760 --> 01:03:37,079
here Jeff is our co-host by the way yeah Jeff is our is our co-host he's been

885
01:03:35,000 --> 01:03:43,119
he's well he's more like a producer he's overseeing the operation here yeah um

886
01:03:39,839 --> 01:03:44,640
but like holy crap for gaming so cool

887
01:03:43,119 --> 01:03:50,160
this would be absolutely amazing augmented reality virtual reality all

888
01:03:47,920 --> 01:03:54,720
that kind of stuff that's like the the reality that's different from the other

889
01:03:51,640 --> 01:03:56,839
more different boring reality oh I

890
01:03:54,720 --> 01:04:01,039
really hope Paul and the guys at Oculus are just jumping all over this because

891
01:03:59,359 --> 01:04:07,799
holy cow this integrated with a rift would be fantastic yeah I'd be all over that

892
01:04:05,960 --> 01:04:12,039
because that's amazing I I don't know the the only thing I care about in this

893
01:04:09,319 --> 01:04:16,520
whole set is the the ability for it to easily pour it into Unity because I'm

894
01:04:13,920 --> 01:04:20,440
like yeah although the the helping uh visually impaired is very cool and like

895
01:04:19,079 --> 01:04:24,319
something they're saying is they could walk around with the phone it could be mounted somewhere or something and then

896
01:04:22,559 --> 01:04:27,760
it could translate information about the environment around them to audio

897
01:04:26,359 --> 01:04:34,200
right so you be like oh there's a wall hey there's a car coming there's a car coming uh turn right uh there's a

898
01:04:32,319 --> 01:04:37,079
crosswalk whatever like it could it could tell you what's going on around

899
01:04:35,559 --> 01:04:41,599
you which is actually really cool someone's telling me to talk about the new YouTube layout I don't think it's

900
01:04:39,960 --> 01:04:45,760
good to get me started on that probably not no we're just not going to do that

901
01:04:43,240 --> 01:04:50,319
anyway extremely exciting totally not here yet

902
01:04:47,119 --> 01:04:52,880
but uh much hope for the future so

903
01:04:50,319 --> 01:05:00,240
awesome very good anyway bit torrent to launch a live

904
01:04:57,559 --> 01:05:04,760
video streaming app this is a story from The Verge and the app will be it's

905
01:05:02,680 --> 01:05:08,799
actually been available for a while but much like anything that bit torrent does

906
01:05:07,039 --> 01:05:13,359
it's really not very exciting until there's a whole bunch of users making it

907
01:05:11,279 --> 01:05:18,640
awesome because it's all based on peer-to-peer sharing so the way it works

908
01:05:15,839 --> 01:05:23,119
now is if you wanted to watch uh Canada destroy the US I shouldn't say destroy

909
01:05:20,599 --> 01:05:27,720
it was only one nothing but anyway if you want to watch Canada beat the US you

910
01:05:25,240 --> 01:05:33,520
have to go to cbc.ca or wherever it is that you're watching it and then they

911
01:05:30,200 --> 01:05:35,359
have to stream that to everyone the way

912
01:05:33,520 --> 01:05:40,640
that this would work much like everything bit torrent does is it would

913
01:05:37,640 --> 01:05:42,440
stream to one user who would stream who

914
01:05:40,640 --> 01:05:46,799
would take a downstream and then maybe two or three upstreams and stream to

915
01:05:44,240 --> 01:05:51,319
more users and it would spread that way so that the bandwidth requirements are

916
01:05:48,960 --> 01:05:54,920
distributed and so that it's much easier to do things that are very challenging

917
01:05:53,200 --> 01:06:00,480
right now for services like Netflix and YouTube whether it's agreements with

918
01:05:57,000 --> 01:06:03,960
isps or just plain simple network

919
01:06:00,480 --> 01:06:07,240
capacity and that is get the content

920
01:06:03,960 --> 01:06:09,440
closer to the person who wants it and uh

921
01:06:07,240 --> 01:06:15,920
Netflix has offered to go as far as installing their own Hardware in uh

922
01:06:13,240 --> 01:06:19,200
isp's data centers so that they can be as close as possible to the people who

923
01:06:17,319 --> 01:06:23,240
want the content so you're not just wasting bandwidth you know having it

924
01:06:21,640 --> 01:06:27,279
having the data travel further than it has to well what this would do is it

925
01:06:25,359 --> 01:06:31,640
would not only decrease the bandwidth cost for whoever's hosting the content

926
01:06:29,279 --> 01:06:36,039
So speaking of the new YouTube layout if for whatever reason lonus Media Group

927
01:06:33,319 --> 01:06:39,960
was just like you know what screw it we don't want to do this YouTube thing

928
01:06:37,400 --> 01:06:45,440
anymore we want to stream our videos ourselves it would dramatically reduce

929
01:06:42,680 --> 01:06:50,680
the startup bandwidth cost and our Reliance on sponsors to pay for

930
01:06:48,400 --> 01:06:55,799
it but then you guys would share the burden yeah which is really really cool

931
01:06:53,760 --> 01:07:00,119
and it's exciting for smaller people like honestly we could probably handle

932
01:06:57,880 --> 01:07:03,480
it we're of a size now that we could probably do it even if we had to do like

933
01:07:02,000 --> 01:07:08,720
like a donation thing we'd be like okay guys look we got to pay for our own bandwidth now help us out I think you

934
01:07:06,160 --> 01:07:15,200
guys would do that but for someone really small this this could save their

935
01:07:12,720 --> 01:07:17,920
butt and this like some something we talked about in the better than Bieber

936
01:07:16,359 --> 01:07:21,880
segment people were talking you you did Hot Spot Shield right after that so people were saying if if you're in one

937
01:07:20,799 --> 01:07:27,480
of those countries or something like that Hotpot Shield can help you get information out if if you want to like

938
01:07:25,559 --> 01:07:32,240
like stream video a mixture of this and Hotspot Shield could really help you if

939
01:07:29,440 --> 01:07:37,680
say all you had was cellular data right cuz one upst stream just pushing on one

940
01:07:35,520 --> 01:07:41,119
dude and then maybe you've got one buddy in the states or something that's got a

941
01:07:39,039 --> 01:07:44,400
really nice internet connection or or or Europe or whatever that can push out to

942
01:07:42,960 --> 01:07:51,000
even more and then more more more more more more more it can spread so it's going to be launched in an alpha State I

943
01:07:47,880 --> 01:07:53,119
think sometime this year was the uh the

944
01:07:51,000 --> 01:07:58,520
timeline given yeah will be released in Alpha and I mean they are doing so much

945
01:07:56,000 --> 01:08:03,680
amazing stuff right now speaking of being a Pioneer and trying to shake a

946
01:08:00,920 --> 01:08:08,920
negative stigma or trying to shake the stigma of being associated with piracy

947
01:08:06,720 --> 01:08:16,120
and with you know law breaking bit torrent holy crap these guys are on fire

948
01:08:12,279 --> 01:08:17,960
between bit torren syn this their chat

949
01:08:16,120 --> 01:08:20,880
application speaking of free Alternatives that could give something

950
01:08:19,239 --> 01:08:24,799
like whatpp a run for its money I wonder what I wonder what bit torrent is going

951
01:08:22,359 --> 01:08:28,239
to be valued at in 10 years yeah they're moving they're moving real hard they're

952
01:08:26,400 --> 01:08:32,279
moving real hard and like we we talked a while ago when they came out uh this was

953
01:08:30,600 --> 01:08:35,960
back when we were in the garage I think I put an article in the doc saying about

954
01:08:34,000 --> 01:08:40,960
how bit Tor was like whoa whoa whoa stop attributing us with piracy yeah and we

955
01:08:37,839 --> 01:08:43,759
were both like yeah we laughed yeah we

956
01:08:40,960 --> 01:08:49,560
were wrong yep well we're wrong now I deserve

957
01:08:45,480 --> 01:08:52,920
that moving on um yeah I think that's

958
01:08:49,560 --> 01:08:56,960
pretty much it last videos would start

959
01:08:52,920 --> 01:08:59,759
slow yeah all good stuff yep all right

960
01:08:56,960 --> 01:09:02,719
so watching movies on the Oculus could be a thing I can think of certain kinds

961
01:09:01,319 --> 01:09:09,000
of movies I would want to watch on the Oculus one of which is obviously the um

962
01:09:07,120 --> 01:09:12,359
Pirates of the Caribbean there's a new one coming that's where I was going with

963
01:09:11,319 --> 01:09:19,120
that anyway so this is an article from new

964
01:09:14,520 --> 01:09:22,239
film school oh man so so zero point uh

965
01:09:19,120 --> 01:09:24,159
is a project by condition one and is

966
01:09:22,239 --> 01:09:28,120
actually about the Oculus Rift device and it will be viewable on the Oculus

967
01:09:25,880 --> 01:09:33,159
drift device which is fantastic um they've also made things earlier that me

968
01:09:30,239 --> 01:09:40,199
let iPad users move through footage with 120 180 Dee field of vision sorry about

969
01:09:40,199 --> 01:09:48,920
that I muted that before I started oh

970
01:09:43,960 --> 01:09:51,159
wow the ad you cannot M the ad that's

971
01:09:48,920 --> 01:09:56,280
brutal anyway sorry go ahead uh where was I yeah so they

972
01:09:54,239 --> 01:09:58,679
they're they make this kind stuff and they're going to continue making this

973
01:09:57,400 --> 01:10:02,040
kind of stuff which is cool I'm pretty excited to see this um there's an

974
01:10:00,440 --> 01:10:06,719
interactive trailer is that where you were you trailer so apparently the

975
01:10:04,199 --> 01:10:10,320
trailer has a non-mutable ad so we're not going to watch the trailer um but if

976
01:10:09,000 --> 01:10:15,960
you want to find it it's condition one.com zero whatever just Google it um

977
01:10:14,280 --> 01:10:19,719
and it'll be in the doc later once it's posted on the Forum later today

978
01:10:17,520 --> 01:10:23,800
hopefully so you can check that out um I think this is super cool I think it's

979
01:10:21,880 --> 01:10:29,600
super cool I mean I don't necessarily see the relevance for something like um

980
01:10:27,199 --> 01:10:35,159
for something like a fiction like I think being able to walk around in the

981
01:10:32,199 --> 01:10:38,600
hobbit 2 would have actually even further removed any believability from

982
01:10:37,400 --> 01:10:45,080
that movie but of course I'm not going to rant about it I'm not I promised not to do that but for something like a

983
01:10:41,920 --> 01:10:49,440
sporting event oh yeah super cool okay

984
01:10:45,080 --> 01:10:51,080
so picture this instead of cameras just

985
01:10:49,440 --> 01:10:56,280
pointing at the ice and you have those viewpoints they have 3D modeling cameras

986
01:10:54,560 --> 01:11:00,880
so you have them all over the place to the point where you could either attend

987
01:10:58,120 --> 01:11:04,880
the game in person or you could buy a virtual ticket because they're not going

988
01:11:03,080 --> 01:11:10,239
to give you this for free no you could buy a virtual ticket and stand on the

989
01:11:07,320 --> 01:11:12,880
ice epic of a hockey game right think about that Imagine The View modes too

990
01:11:11,840 --> 01:11:16,920
you know how when you're in a game you can like select different view modes

991
01:11:15,080 --> 01:11:19,960
free view or like player attached imagine you could just be attached on

992
01:11:18,400 --> 01:11:25,800
like the head position of one of the players so if you could just like GoPro

993
01:11:22,719 --> 01:11:28,800
on to any player on the ice if like what

994
01:11:25,800 --> 01:11:31,440
is it like to play as uh an NFL

995
01:11:28,800 --> 01:11:34,520
quarterback for a day yeah like you just you buy your ticket which would probably

996
01:11:32,880 --> 01:11:40,360
be cheaper than an in-person ticket and probably a way cooler experience you

997
01:11:36,480 --> 01:11:41,800
strap on your Oculus and holy crap we

998
01:11:40,360 --> 01:11:47,480
need to get this is something I've been interested in for a really long time you know uh like sensory deprivation chamber

999
01:11:45,719 --> 01:11:52,040
things we need to get those but completely the opposite it needs to be

1000
01:11:49,760 --> 01:11:57,600
like sensory overload chamber where you can wear some type of VR technology and

1001
01:11:54,800 --> 01:12:01,239
then have the this thing inject smells why would we want this and inject like

1002
01:11:59,120 --> 01:12:04,760
temperatures so you could like feel like you are somewhere like if you're running

1003
01:12:03,080 --> 01:12:12,400
through a meadow it's going to smell and feel like you're running through a meadow it can simulate wind it can make

1004
01:12:08,159 --> 01:12:13,880
itell Sate wind oh god um like like uh I

1005
01:12:12,400 --> 01:12:17,400
think it was at Disneyland they have that one where you go over an orange

1006
01:12:15,440 --> 01:12:21,560
field and it smells like oranges while you're doing it that'd be very cool like

1007
01:12:19,239 --> 01:12:26,120
that would be epic and I don't know maybe Sports is going to be smelly but

1008
01:12:24,560 --> 01:12:29,880
like still if they can get that experience so you actually feel like

1009
01:12:27,560 --> 01:12:33,040
you're there oh man that would be so cool Yep this is going to be amazing I

1010
01:12:31,719 --> 01:12:38,480
mean one of the uses they're talking about is in a documentary type films so

1011
01:12:36,440 --> 01:12:43,280
you could see from different perspectives I mean really to

1012
01:12:40,840 --> 01:12:47,360
me this is going to I mean okay there's going to be this in between stage where

1013
01:12:45,280 --> 01:12:51,120
you can do things like pan from one thing to another so like the scene is

1014
01:12:49,320 --> 01:12:54,880
going on like kind of over there but you could go look at the dog if you wanted

1015
01:12:53,320 --> 01:13:00,000
like stuff no one's really going to want to do yeah and that's going to be you

1016
01:12:58,239 --> 01:13:05,719
know you'll need like a fancy camera to capture that but then when what's really

1017
01:13:02,440 --> 01:13:07,440
coming is when you can use multiple

1018
01:13:05,719 --> 01:13:13,080
cameras to capture a much larger scene and then recreate it as a virtual event

1019
01:13:09,360 --> 01:13:15,000
I mean imagine this if uh something like

1020
01:13:13,080 --> 01:13:18,920
what's going on in Ukraine right now if everyone had their cell phones out and

1021
01:13:17,280 --> 01:13:24,159
was collecting footage which is already going on anyway if you could just

1022
01:13:21,080 --> 01:13:27,320
virtually move around in this space if

1023
01:13:24,159 --> 01:13:30,040
you could recreate something like a riot

1024
01:13:27,320 --> 01:13:36,040
or event I mean okay forget forget Ukraine for a second okay so when Canada

1025
01:13:32,280 --> 01:13:38,159
loses hockey games Vancouver riots so if

1026
01:13:36,040 --> 01:13:42,679
the police could take all that cell phone footage Stitch it together and go

1027
01:13:40,719 --> 01:13:46,199
walk through it and find out who freaking started it they're still

1028
01:13:44,480 --> 01:13:51,400
persecuting people for that eh yeah they just Prosecuting

1029
01:13:49,159 --> 01:13:57,120
sorry uh they they just pulled in I think three more people so imagine that

1030
01:13:54,000 --> 01:13:59,360
imagine law en enforcement with this I

1031
01:13:57,120 --> 01:14:04,000
mean yeah but then imagine all the negative things yeah it's like with

1032
01:14:02,280 --> 01:14:11,760
cameras everywhere everything we report on now this is super cool and horribly

1033
01:14:08,480 --> 01:14:13,520
terrible I don't know what else to say

1034
01:14:11,760 --> 01:14:17,159
uh yeah but I'm I'm stoked because it would also be really cool in movies like

1035
01:14:16,000 --> 01:14:21,920
uh that were very like vocal heavy there's a lot of

1036
01:14:20,239 --> 01:14:29,159
talking yeah like that one good scene in The Hobbit stop stop stop okay should

1037
01:14:27,840 --> 01:14:33,239
have seen him the day after he watched the movie

1038
01:14:30,960 --> 01:14:36,360
stop because like if if you could feel like you're partaking in the

1039
01:14:34,280 --> 01:14:42,360
conversation just as a silent member of the conversation that would be really

1040
01:14:37,600 --> 01:14:43,960
cool um anyways moving on to what more

1041
01:14:42,360 --> 01:14:50,239
Oculus mhm like you can tell who works on the

1042
01:14:46,800 --> 01:14:53,199
dock he so they are suspending sales of

1043
01:14:50,239 --> 01:14:58,520
the rift developer kit but will not confirm if there is to be a new

1044
01:14:55,520 --> 01:15:00,199
developer kit available soon so not NE

1045
01:14:58,520 --> 01:15:02,880
they're not necessarily suspending sales they're just not Distributing anymore so

1046
01:15:01,760 --> 01:15:07,960
they're not making them yeah they're not making them anymore so if they sell it in a region you won't be able to get

1047
01:15:05,239 --> 01:15:12,440
them in that region anymore um yay um there there's a whole bunch of

1048
01:15:10,760 --> 01:15:16,679
information coming out about what could possibly be in DK2 development kit 2 and

1049
01:15:15,199 --> 01:15:20,880
a lot of people are wondering if it's going to be a slightly further version

1050
01:15:18,520 --> 01:15:25,880
than Crystal Cove um because there has been people recently tweeting out saying

1051
01:15:23,840 --> 01:15:29,400
that they've gone to Oculus headquarters and have seen something that's just

1052
01:15:27,239 --> 01:15:31,360
absolutely blown them off their feet and they're they're not allowed talking

1053
01:15:30,400 --> 01:15:35,120
about it and all it's going to stuff is under NDA but that was very recent and

1054
01:15:33,520 --> 01:15:42,600
now they're stopping production holy crap I want DK2 now

1055
01:15:39,080 --> 01:15:44,880
development kit 2 now um I'm I'm super

1056
01:15:42,600 --> 01:15:51,120
incredibly stoked there's also another thing um Oculus has filed for rifton the

1057
01:15:49,320 --> 01:15:57,280
trademark for rifton so there's probably going to be some sort of um conference

1058
01:15:54,199 --> 01:16:00,000
VR conference or convention or something

1059
01:15:57,280 --> 01:16:04,400
like that who knows I'd imagine that um it'd be the least expensive conference

1060
01:16:02,000 --> 01:16:04,400
ever to

1061
01:16:06,840 --> 01:16:13,000
attend I'd hope so I'd hope that they would have some way to be able to attend

1062
01:16:10,719 --> 01:16:16,880
it in that form especially with did you see those little like cameras on wheels

1063
01:16:14,679 --> 01:16:23,040
that were going around CES yeah yeah like if they had those but 360 degree

1064
01:16:18,920 --> 01:16:25,120
cameras fantastic yeah that'd be epic

1065
01:16:23,040 --> 01:16:30,360
um yeah so they haven't they hav haven't commented on a kit but I'm it's pretty

1066
01:16:28,800 --> 01:16:34,880
pretty sure a Kit's coming although that could just be hopeful wishing I'm not

1067
01:16:32,400 --> 01:16:41,199
entirely sure speaking of of Wishful hopeful things what if there was an app

1068
01:16:38,400 --> 01:16:46,000
to make it so you can see better skip this ad okay so this is the claim and

1069
01:16:43,960 --> 01:16:52,480
this is on popular mechanics.com this is not on like the onion

1070
01:16:48,679 --> 01:16:54,120
okay so there's a whole spiel about how

1071
01:16:52,480 --> 01:16:56,480
baseball players and such and such they have very little time to something

1072
01:16:55,480 --> 01:17:03,239
something anyway don't worry too much about that what this app does is it

1073
01:16:59,639 --> 01:17:05,800
actually trains the brain not the eyes

1074
01:17:03,239 --> 01:17:09,639
to interpret what the eyes are seeing better so we're going to go ahead and

1075
01:17:08,360 --> 01:17:15,199
this time I'm going to be ready to mute the PC if something disastrous happens

1076
01:17:11,800 --> 01:17:18,600
there you go yes good work go away

1077
01:17:15,199 --> 01:17:20,400
amazing in motion nobody cares okay well

1078
01:17:18,600 --> 01:17:25,280
whatever anyway that's that's coming in a moment not mutable before so what it

1079
01:17:23,320 --> 01:17:32,040
does is it it when you sit in front of it and you you recognize you identify

1080
01:17:29,000 --> 01:17:34,080
shapes for a period of time that I

1081
01:17:32,040 --> 01:17:37,400
actually haven't tried it yet but the whole point of all of this is guys it's

1082
01:17:36,159 --> 01:17:41,040
I'm going to post the link in the twitch chat which I always forget to do I know

1083
01:17:39,600 --> 01:17:45,679
we should do this on every single article there we go so I'm going to post

1084
01:17:43,199 --> 01:17:49,360
the link in the twitch chat and the idea is that by training your brain to

1085
01:17:47,560 --> 01:17:54,199
recognize there you go so you guys can see kind of what's up now you go to

1086
01:17:51,920 --> 01:18:00,320
recognize these things it will allow you to achieve significantly better vision

1087
01:17:56,639 --> 01:18:01,719
and the article claims forget about 2020

1088
01:18:00,320 --> 01:18:10,320
I think they were saying that there were people achieving like 27 which means that you can see from 20

1089
01:18:06,600 --> 01:18:14,440
ft what most people would see from

1090
01:18:10,320 --> 01:18:17,159
7t which is bananas absolutely bananas

1091
01:18:14,440 --> 01:18:22,920
so my suggestion was going to be that we all try it this week and then we come

1092
01:18:19,840 --> 01:18:25,040
back next week and we can do a a Twitter

1093
01:18:22,920 --> 01:18:29,600
Blitz and I'd love to hear from everyone how effective it was for them so that

1094
01:18:28,159 --> 01:18:33,679
that's it it was just something cool that I wanted to talk about which I

1095
01:18:31,880 --> 01:18:37,800
guess is this entire show speaking of something not cool that

1096
01:18:36,320 --> 01:18:44,400
we're going to talk about Irrational Games uh is closing their doors sort of

1097
01:18:42,600 --> 01:18:49,560
as you knew them I think he's keeping about 15 members he's keeping some

1098
01:18:46,639 --> 01:18:52,480
employees um and they're moving and they're they're they're supporting and

1099
01:18:51,159 --> 01:18:56,920
helping the employees that they're not keeping a lot they're even hosting job

1100
01:18:55,080 --> 01:19:01,760
fairs where people from other companies can come to their offices and meet the

1101
01:18:59,400 --> 01:19:05,000
people that they're not keeping and possibly hire them I know Bethesda

1102
01:19:03,320 --> 01:19:08,560
scooped up a few or is looking into scooping up a few and like who's not

1103
01:19:07,239 --> 01:19:12,840
going to want people from a rational games at this point um so I wouldn't be

1104
01:19:11,239 --> 01:19:16,679
too worried if I was an employee at rational games they're not pulling an EA

1105
01:19:14,719 --> 01:19:21,000
they're actually trying to like help their employees out that they're not

1106
01:19:18,159 --> 01:19:28,239
keeping um and they're they're giving the IP of Bioshock to 2K which makes

1107
01:19:23,960 --> 01:19:30,440
sense yep um and yeah he's moving on

1108
01:19:28,239 --> 01:19:34,520
he's trying to do a more entrepreneurial kind of endeavor at take two he was

1109
01:19:32,760 --> 01:19:38,719
going to go fully independent but he kind of said uh this sorry this is Kevin

1110
01:19:36,360 --> 01:19:42,520
LaVine um but he kind of said Okay I want to refocus on a smaller group I'm

1111
01:19:40,800 --> 01:19:46,920
going to go I'm going to go Indie I'm going to go independent and uh you know

1112
01:19:45,040 --> 01:19:50,280
I want a smaller team I want a flatter reporting structure I don't want to be

1113
01:19:48,199 --> 01:19:55,080
such a ginormous you know company working on such a ginormous project

1114
01:19:52,159 --> 01:19:59,719
anymore um we did this we started this years ago and it's been a wild rde but I

1115
01:19:57,800 --> 01:20:03,960
want to do something smaller and take two basically said look let us support

1116
01:20:01,600 --> 01:20:08,120
you within our ecosystem so he's still going to stay there but Irrational Games

1117
01:20:06,159 --> 01:20:11,560
as you knew it is pretty much gone yeah and like they're doing that because Take

1118
01:20:09,600 --> 01:20:16,360
2 helped them a lot in the past as well this isn't really a new thing he's not

1119
01:20:13,639 --> 01:20:23,280
jumping ship randomly this is this is this made sense already so it's it's I'm

1120
01:20:20,880 --> 01:20:26,480
kind of sad but I hope for good things he's quoted saying if we're lucky will

1121
01:20:24,840 --> 01:20:30,760
build something half as memorable as Bioshock and I'm sure considering it's

1122
01:20:28,760 --> 01:20:35,719
Kevin LaVine that he will try extremely hard so I I'm excited for what they make

1123
01:20:34,120 --> 01:20:40,600
um I'm also still excited for the future of Bioshock it's not over I just hope

1124
01:20:39,000 --> 01:20:44,360
it's Bioshock too sure made it look like it was over yeah but then it came back

1125
01:20:42,560 --> 01:20:48,840
but then BioShock Infinite was freaking amazing um I don't know why the whole

1126
01:20:46,520 --> 01:20:53,600
internet like flipped when it became Awards time on BHO infinite everyone

1127
01:20:51,719 --> 01:20:57,080
loved it then it was like Awards time then it was like no it's sucks and then

1128
01:20:55,199 --> 01:21:01,239
it still one things last thing is the gaming The Gaming Community is very

1129
01:20:58,800 --> 01:21:04,360
fickle yeah the attention span is very short and you forget how good things

1130
01:21:03,080 --> 01:21:09,639
were I think I think that's a big problem it's not a multiplayer game so people aren't playing it every day that

1131
01:21:07,520 --> 01:21:14,080
even ties in something that reminded me um of the exact thing that happened with

1132
01:21:11,560 --> 01:21:17,520
BioShock Infinite was um the stares in the next great Starship thing y it

1133
01:21:15,840 --> 01:21:21,080
became the Wild Card round so everyone was voting for what one they thought was

1134
01:21:19,679 --> 01:21:26,560
the best in the wild card so what didn't make it through the judge voting um and

1135
01:21:23,800 --> 01:21:29,760
like a m M percentage of the votes were for something that was from the most

1136
01:21:27,719 --> 01:21:33,639
recent episode yep and that's because when you went to go view it it was just

1137
01:21:31,520 --> 01:21:36,760
names of teams no pictures of the gun nothing like that so even when I was

1138
01:21:35,120 --> 01:21:40,360
looking through it trying to be super objective I was like I don't remember

1139
01:21:39,040 --> 01:21:45,239
two-thirds of these because they're an old episodes like what the heck was that

1140
01:21:43,159 --> 01:21:48,600
so I don't know that's it the internet forgets everyone forgets it makes sense

1141
01:21:47,400 --> 01:21:55,120
the actually I was having this conversation with um with Ed today edel

1142
01:21:52,199 --> 01:22:00,199
our editor anyway um we were Mar at some classic memes that a lot of the

1143
01:21:58,440 --> 01:22:06,800
kids today aren't aware of like all your base has disappeared off the face of the

1144
01:22:02,719 --> 01:22:08,560
Earth replaced by such Doge so coin

1145
01:22:06,800 --> 01:22:14,120
whatever like whatever the the flavor of the day is it is so easy for stuff to

1146
01:22:10,760 --> 01:22:16,440
completely disappear and um and like

1147
01:22:14,120 --> 01:22:21,280
people still remember it but it's not it's not circulated yeah it's it's not

1148
01:22:18,960 --> 01:22:25,639
in the flow like everything else is um speaking oh yeah this is a topic

1149
01:22:24,120 --> 01:22:30,159
that isn't on the dock but I did want to bring up very briefly Square Enix has

1150
01:22:28,080 --> 01:22:35,639
talked about the possibility of more Final Fantasy development on the PC cool

1151
01:22:32,679 --> 01:22:40,199
it's been a long time yeah seriously I mean that was that Final Fantasy sold a

1152
01:22:38,159 --> 01:22:44,800
lot of PlayStation ones and a fair number of PlayStation

1153
01:22:41,679 --> 01:22:46,800
2s um you know I I think a lot of PC

1154
01:22:44,800 --> 01:22:51,400
people would have loved to have I mean they've really expanded the platforms

1155
01:22:48,719 --> 01:22:56,080
that the games are available on a lot over the over the last few years I mean

1156
01:22:53,239 --> 01:23:01,120
the remakes on Android are probably the most notable ones I actually did re one

1157
01:22:58,880 --> 01:23:05,400
of them now that I think about no maybe it was DS yeah I bought like a Final

1158
01:23:03,400 --> 01:23:10,600
Fantasy 1 or Final Fantasy 2 remake for the DS um and that's been such a cash

1159
01:23:08,639 --> 01:23:15,120
cow for them and such a such a great move for them that I really have to

1160
01:23:12,440 --> 01:23:20,560
wonder is anyone at Square Enix watching why the hell don't you go back to making

1161
01:23:17,320 --> 01:23:22,360
good games yeah uh tying into that this

1162
01:23:20,560 --> 01:23:27,239
isn't even in the dock but apparently the the source and everything for Thief

1163
01:23:24,840 --> 01:23:30,560
was released oh yeah it was leaked uh there's there's ending of the game

1164
01:23:28,760 --> 01:23:36,920
videos on YouTube already I think someone was streaming the game on Twitch

1165
01:23:33,360 --> 01:23:39,000
like it's like leaked like out there not

1166
01:23:36,920 --> 01:23:45,440
a little bit um people have mapped out certain levels and people are pissed

1167
01:23:42,080 --> 01:23:47,440
really like not stoked at all especially

1168
01:23:45,440 --> 01:23:50,679
the guys that used to play um Thief I haven't touched it yet I don't know I'm

1169
01:23:49,280 --> 01:23:55,600
not going to touch the leaked code I'm going to wait till it comes out blah blah blah blah blah um but people are

1170
01:23:54,120 --> 01:23:59,600
complaining in because apparently it's just way too easy and apparently someone

1171
01:23:57,920 --> 01:24:05,880
has already beat it from beginning to end without cheating and I think it was

1172
01:24:01,280 --> 01:24:08,120
like 6 hours wow so yeah one thing that

1173
01:24:05,880 --> 01:24:12,880
they do have is there's like uh voluntary difficulty scaling yeah so you

1174
01:24:10,679 --> 01:24:16,600
can put in like handicaps essentially like one of them is if you're ever

1175
01:24:13,880 --> 01:24:22,639
detected you just lose um another one is if you die be anchi it's not AAP it's

1176
01:24:20,199 --> 01:24:27,800
you you get more points okay sure so yeah whoever played a game for points

1177
01:24:25,199 --> 01:24:31,360
I know um like honestly you either beat the thing or you don't like for most

1178
01:24:29,840 --> 01:24:36,480
people I know some people are going to try to get every bandage in Super Meat

1179
01:24:33,480 --> 01:24:38,040
Boy and that's cool I respect that but

1180
01:24:36,480 --> 01:24:42,040
most people don't do that and usually it's a cool addition that's that's how I

1181
01:24:40,520 --> 01:24:45,840
see most achievement kind of things it's like oh I really like this game here's

1182
01:24:44,000 --> 01:24:49,760
something that can get me to continue playing some some sort of goal yeah like

1183
01:24:48,159 --> 01:24:54,400
like with the idea with Thief when I heard about those additional difficulty

1184
01:24:51,400 --> 01:24:56,880
things was oh cool I really liked the

1185
01:24:54,400 --> 01:25:02,159
thief games that's like why I like certain game types now are because it

1186
01:24:58,760 --> 01:25:03,480
reminds me of thief right um so when I

1187
01:25:02,159 --> 01:25:08,040
saw that I was like oh cool once I beat the game once I'm done playing the game

1188
01:25:05,840 --> 01:25:11,760
normally I can go back and put on like a combination of modes where if you're

1189
01:25:09,320 --> 01:25:15,520
ever detected you die and if you ever die it deletes your game so I could do

1190
01:25:13,719 --> 01:25:18,920
that and be like super hardcore and then see if I could beat it like that makes

1191
01:25:17,080 --> 01:25:22,960
sense I mean it's such a fine balance you know what with a series like Thief

1192
01:25:21,119 --> 01:25:26,520
what I'll have what I'll say about that is you're damned if you do your damned

1193
01:25:24,840 --> 01:25:30,360
if you don't if you change the gam playay a lot then the hardcores who

1194
01:25:29,000 --> 01:25:35,119
really loved the old games are going to hate you for it and if you don't change

1195
01:25:32,000 --> 01:25:37,199
it enough then you're not innovating and

1196
01:25:35,119 --> 01:25:42,080
it's it'll be another BioShock 2 what was the complaint about BioShock 2 well

1197
01:25:39,639 --> 01:25:45,679
it was just that they copy pasted how much how much do we complain about copy

1198
01:25:43,920 --> 01:25:49,159
pasting and then how much do we complain when someone actually innovates and my

1199
01:25:47,639 --> 01:25:53,600
point about Final Fantasy I'm going to come back to that for a minute because

1200
01:25:50,719 --> 01:26:00,360
this this is very close to my heart as a DI hard f Fantasy 6 lover is that it is

1201
01:25:56,880 --> 01:26:03,639
not the same thing you do not have to

1202
01:26:00,360 --> 01:26:06,080
make a change to the combat system at

1203
01:26:03,639 --> 01:26:10,520
all you could use a combat system from any decent Final Fantasy game whether

1204
01:26:08,080 --> 01:26:14,440
it's uh five six 79 um I'm just trying to think of other

1205
01:26:12,960 --> 01:26:21,320
ones that I liked off the top of my head but anyway you could take any good combat system and you tie it into a

1206
01:26:18,600 --> 01:26:27,280
halfway decent story with a decent length and that's the kind of gameplay

1207
01:26:23,719 --> 01:26:29,199
it is who plays Final Fantasy for the

1208
01:26:27,280 --> 01:26:32,320
combat that's that's one thing with Thief though that people have been

1209
01:26:30,360 --> 01:26:35,679
complaining about is apparently you can run through the game like a Rambo and

1210
01:26:34,119 --> 01:26:38,960
the whole the whole thing and a lot of like uh reviewers that have been able to

1211
01:26:37,520 --> 01:26:42,520
play it early have been saying it's incredibly difficult to do combat but

1212
01:26:41,199 --> 01:26:47,880
then apparently the guy that ran through it in like six hours just like killed

1213
01:26:45,440 --> 01:26:51,920
everyone and it was like yeah yeah you just shoot everybody and then and then

1214
01:26:50,119 --> 01:26:54,920
pick up all the things which is like not how Thief is supposed to be played

1215
01:26:53,760 --> 01:26:58,360
you're supposed to to not be the greatest combatant you're supposed to

1216
01:26:56,760 --> 01:27:03,840
have to beat the game by stealing things that's the whole point you're a thief so

1217
01:27:00,480 --> 01:27:03,840
I don't know that doesn't make any

1218
01:27:07,840 --> 01:27:13,159
sense no I don't know I'm I'm still uh I

1219
01:27:11,159 --> 01:27:17,760
haven't given up hope I am hoping that it's just some like crazy hype train you

1220
01:27:15,040 --> 01:27:22,440
haven't given up hope yeah when's the last time a game got leaked and panned

1221
01:27:20,920 --> 01:27:31,119
and it turned out to be awesome okay so moving on uh GTX 750 Ti

1222
01:27:26,880 --> 01:27:34,199
NVIDIA's most efficient GPU yet the

1223
01:27:31,119 --> 01:27:36,040
article that I will refer to is our own

1224
01:27:34,199 --> 01:27:41,920
video because this is something we covered it's funny on W show we tend not

1225
01:27:38,920 --> 01:27:43,840
to cover anything that we covered well

1226
01:27:41,920 --> 01:27:47,600
because they just go watch the Youtube video well yeah but that's I mean that's

1227
01:27:45,840 --> 01:27:51,920
assuming a lot that's assuming that people want to watch our YouTube videos

1228
01:27:49,639 --> 01:27:56,760
they seem to I'm pretty you know what I'm I'm going to create a straw pool for

1229
01:27:54,280 --> 01:28:02,000
this I'm you know what why don't you just hate some

1230
01:27:58,159 --> 01:28:03,679
more straw pole. y yep I'm going to

1231
01:28:02,000 --> 01:28:10,040
create a new straw pole do you oh okay here what for what

1232
01:28:08,800 --> 01:28:13,679
do you watch sorry I should probably just start using our own Forum yeah we should probably start using our own

1233
01:28:12,320 --> 01:28:22,280
forum for we have a poll on our own Forum okay LTT plus when plus Tech

1234
01:28:18,119 --> 01:28:24,639
quickie okay uh LTT plus

1235
01:28:22,280 --> 01:28:30,560
when LT only and then when only what what are

1236
01:28:28,800 --> 01:28:36,760

cookie but well they watch when so there

1238
01:28:36,760 --> 01:28:43,040
are already options in here that don't really make any sense yeah never mind um

1239
01:28:40,840 --> 01:28:46,280
well whatever TQ only find so I'm talking like what do you actually follow

is Linus techip YouTube channel TQ is

1245
01:29:03,840 --> 01:29:10,960
the Techquickie YouTube channel my secondary Channel and then when is this

1246
01:29:08,000 --> 01:29:16,360
particular show because there is a large subset of our viewers and I know this

1247
01:29:12,920 --> 01:29:18,600
already that do not watch W show even

1248
01:29:16,360 --> 01:29:24,159
though they're regular viewers like I people like six months in to Luke being

1249
01:29:21,719 --> 01:29:28,679
on the W show but not appearing in other videos we'd have people being like holy

1250
01:29:27,600 --> 01:29:32,480
crap it's slick and like I'm not I'm not like I'm

1251
01:29:31,040 --> 01:29:37,440
not hating on these people or anything it's just it's like um it's just like

1252
01:29:35,960 --> 01:29:41,040
okay you you clearly don't watch The W show and that's fine I think that's

1253
01:29:39,119 --> 01:29:44,600
slowed down a lot there's still a little bit where someone would be like oh my

1254
01:29:42,360 --> 01:29:48,440
God his name is Luke Luke whatever and I'm just like

1255
01:29:46,000 --> 01:29:51,199
yeah yeah and that's fine I mean and some people kind of go away and they

1256
01:29:49,960 --> 01:29:54,440
don't watch it for 6 months and they come back and then then it's surprising

1257
01:29:53,040 --> 01:29:59,800
and that's mostly gone but but I'm just sort of curious how many of you don't in the meantime we'll talk about 750 Ti um

1258
01:29:58,400 --> 01:30:04,080
not a whole lot to say very competitively positioned very power

1259
01:30:01,520 --> 01:30:07,800
efficient very quiet look at that cooler there's like nothing to it at all it's

1260
01:30:06,119 --> 01:30:14,040
kind of ugly it's only about the length of a PCI Express slot which okay now we

1261
01:30:11,480 --> 01:30:21,560
made fun of this both of us you and I are both guilty we trolled the hell out

1262
01:30:17,560 --> 01:30:24,560
of the 650 TI yeah that little tiny PCB

1263
01:30:21,560 --> 01:30:28,679
but then when I needed a car C with an

1264
01:30:24,560 --> 01:30:32,440
h264 decoder on it for my media

1265
01:30:28,679 --> 01:30:32,440
PC what did I have to

1266
01:30:32,480 --> 01:30:38,679
use I had to find that short PCB card to

1267
01:30:35,719 --> 01:30:43,639
install an alen Lee PC Q7 still funny it's still funny it still looks

1268
01:30:40,880 --> 01:30:46,679
ridiculous but there is a market for a card that is very power efficient

1269
01:30:45,239 --> 01:30:50,960
doesn't require an external power connector see no power connector and is

1270
01:30:49,520 --> 01:30:55,719
really really short so you can fit it in almost anything Y and like it it it

1271
01:30:54,080 --> 01:31:01,159
shines as we talked about earlier it shines greatly if you're looking for

1272
01:30:57,639 --> 01:31:03,960
very power efficient mining now all the

1273
01:31:01,159 --> 01:31:08,480
charts that people are showing is um like very heavily based on power

1274
01:31:06,280 --> 01:31:13,800
efficiency it's not the craziest minor out there yeah but for how much power it

1275
01:31:10,880 --> 01:31:17,639
draws it is extremely strong so it's it's that how you're rating it kind of

1276
01:31:15,560 --> 01:31:22,400
deal so if you want to run a ton of these on low amount of power and have it

1277
01:31:20,119 --> 01:31:25,440
output a good amount for how much power you're using that makes sense and then a

1278
01:31:24,159 --> 01:31:31,719
lot of people do worry about that because if you're trying to legitimately make money off of mining your power bill

1279
01:31:29,520 --> 01:31:35,840
is probably kind of really important to you that's a major factor yeah so if you

1280
01:31:33,800 --> 01:31:39,600
can get that down and still be making a fair amount then that's really good

1281
01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:44,520
because you have a if you have to get that that raw profit

1282
01:31:42,480 --> 01:31:47,719
up all right so let's have a look at the straw pole before or did you have any

1283
01:31:45,960 --> 01:31:51,760
more topics you wanted to cover uh there's like random things like uh the

1284
01:31:49,920 --> 01:31:54,400
power laes possibly coming in 2015 there's nothing really else to say about

1285
01:31:53,000 --> 01:31:57,840
that though that's fine um power laces from Back to the Future

1286
01:31:56,119 --> 01:32:01,199
might be coming in 2015 yeah hold I'll find a picture this is posted on the

1287
01:31:59,159 --> 01:32:05,880
verge by The Verge thank you Verge we love you Verge um I think they have a

1288
01:32:03,719 --> 01:32:09,639
video of how it like was worked in I found out why we haven't got Joshua

1289
01:32:07,480 --> 01:32:13,440
tulsky as a guest yet why um well he had a baby oh so he's kind of busy and stuff

1290
01:32:12,080 --> 01:32:17,280
yeah that makes sense yep makes perfect sense that's okay he has all the time he

1291
01:32:15,080 --> 01:32:21,880
wants yep also oh my goodness I got a message Tom Merit also agreed to come on

1292
01:32:19,639 --> 01:32:26,040
the show but he's been like he just started up his own thing he's been crazy

1293
01:32:24,199 --> 01:32:30,320
crazy busy but yeah we definitely want them as a guest so anyway these

1294
01:32:27,480 --> 01:32:33,840
fictional sneakers will be uh will be coming so power power laes yeah power

1295
01:32:32,560 --> 01:32:37,880
laces they're not going to be on shoes that look like this well they they

1296
01:32:35,600 --> 01:32:40,600
should be they totally should be I would definitely get some of those I mean they

1297
01:32:39,199 --> 01:32:48,119
did limited oh my goodness I'm not screen sharing they did a limited edition run uh back in

1298
01:32:44,239 --> 01:32:49,320
2011 y of 1500 of these shoes but I

1299
01:32:48,119 --> 01:32:53,920
would love to see them actually bring the would you wear them yeah you would

1300
01:32:51,679 --> 01:32:57,080
wear them yeah just because the back is the future

1301
01:32:55,119 --> 01:33:02,920
reference if it wasn't for Back to the Future I probably wouldn't get those I

1302
01:33:00,600 --> 01:33:08,000
probably but like because it's back to the future and because certain nerdy

1303
01:33:05,000 --> 01:33:11,440
people would be like yeah then yeah I'd

1304
01:33:08,000 --> 01:33:13,920
do that so nerd street cred is worth

1305
01:33:11,440 --> 01:33:17,440
looking like a dumbass to other people yeah

1306
01:33:15,119 --> 01:33:21,760
okay that's fine I'm not saying that's wrong I wear certain things because it

1307
01:33:19,400 --> 01:33:26,679
has nerd street cred y like that video game high school shirt that you

1308
01:33:23,000 --> 01:33:31,119
apparently never take off sweater yeah

1309
01:33:26,679 --> 01:33:33,480
but yeah all right so let's go to our

1310
01:33:31,119 --> 01:33:39,880
poll what do you guys watch 70% of you apparently will watch

1311
01:33:37,400 --> 01:33:43,520
any crappy thing that we make sweet so that new channel yeah we should totally

1312
01:33:41,520 --> 01:33:49,239
make new channels like Linus stormtrooper armor just doing

1313
01:33:46,480 --> 01:33:54,760
things entirely new channel for this just L and Stor trooper armor takes out

1314
01:33:51,920 --> 01:34:02,320
the garbage reality TV has reached a new

1315
01:33:58,040 --> 01:34:03,719
low thrilling it was raining this time D

1316
01:34:02,320 --> 01:34:08,119
I don't even know if I'd want to take $1,500 stormtrooper armor out in the

1317
01:34:06,119 --> 01:34:14,480
rain well it's plastic it's plastic but even so yeah yeah here maybe I should he

1318
01:34:11,920 --> 01:34:19,600
takes it out in the rain exciting new episode this week on TLC all right so uh

1319
01:34:18,239 --> 01:34:24,280
I can't read the straw pole unless I hold this here uh lius Tech tips and

1320
01:34:22,719 --> 01:34:29,000
Tech or and when gets you better do this okay so lonus

1321
01:34:26,560 --> 01:34:33,840
Tech tips and W show gets 22% of the vote wow only gets 4% that's actually a

1322
01:34:31,960 --> 01:34:37,639
lot higher than I expected uh lineus Tech tips and Techquickie no W show is

1323
01:34:36,000 --> 01:34:42,440
about 2% of the vote that makes sense because that would be people that are watching The W show that are but are

1324
01:34:40,040 --> 01:34:45,719
possibly new to it um Linus Tech tips only is only about 1% again that's

1325
01:34:44,600 --> 01:34:54,040
people that are probably just new to the W show and TW TW quickie TW quickie Tech

1326
01:34:51,320 --> 01:34:58,360
quickie is about 1% as well with only about nine votes so not that many people

1327
01:34:56,320 --> 01:35:01,960
are coming from only Techquickie and now watching The W show but there is

1328
01:34:59,920 --> 01:35:08,080
some of them and the mass majority of people watch just basically everything

1329
01:35:04,880 --> 01:35:10,159
cool thank you guys yeah I think that's

1330
01:35:08,080 --> 01:35:13,840
actually about it for the show uh we should probably do one more plug for our

1331
01:35:12,119 --> 01:35:18,239
sponsor thank you very much to Hotspot Shield for sponsoring this episode of

1332
01:35:15,639 --> 01:35:24,520

1333
01:35:21,719 --> 01:35:27,880
can't hear it for do you don't you the yeah yeah I I just realized I'm asking a

1334
01:35:26,360 --> 01:35:32,119
stupid question after I asked it but then it was too late to back down all

1335
01:35:29,400 --> 01:35:36,480
right yeah so uh yeah so thanks hot squat shield and then the other things

1347
01:36:19,040 --> 01:36:25,920
support us link that's right on the uh the lineus tech tips Forum there and of

1348
01:36:22,880 --> 01:36:28,280
course my browser are is like hardcore

1349
01:36:25,920 --> 01:36:31,280
zoomed and I can't like the lenses on these are not the greatest lenses I've

1350
01:36:29,880 --> 01:36:35,239
ever encountered in my life that's why they can't shoot or aim very well yeah

1351
01:36:33,080 --> 01:36:38,760
that exactly it is no mystery to me anymore why Stormtroopers can't hit

1352
01:36:36,880 --> 01:36:44,679
anything because I I got fully armored up today I can barely move I can't see I

1353
01:36:42,960 --> 01:36:49,400
mean it's like I mean yeah Mark Hill said it best I think I can't see

1354
01:36:46,520 --> 01:36:54,280
anything in this helmet yeah yeah yeah yes you got it Mark I love you um so

1360
01:37:16,040 --> 01:37:20,440
have some other t-shirts we should probably have some other t-shirts yeah we'll have other t-shirts later don't

1361
01:37:19,199 --> 01:37:24,280
worry there's more t-shirts coming we should get the better than Bieber thing going soon though yeah better than

1362
