WEBVTT 00:00:00.199 --> 00:00:07.600 hilarious it's completely ridiculous obviously the concept was never going to 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 00:00:08.880 --> 00:00:16.760 then have they I'm how many I think they're past four gyms whatever there 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 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 00:00:22.519 --> 00:00:29.080 end and then that will be that yeah probably but I fully expect them to do 00:00:26.480 --> 00:00:33.760 at least one more game like I I expect them to try like Final Fantasy or 00:00:31.680 --> 00:00:38.600 something good luck they're going to fail I mean but I could see them trying 00:00:35.760 --> 00:00:44.399 it I'd be surprised if a thousand people on Twitch could beat like could could 00:00:41.600 --> 00:00:48.960 finish like the Leo kefa like basically cut scene fight never mind beating any 00:00:46.960 --> 00:00:53.559 of the actual bosses I mean there's only one correct this is the thousand monkeys 00:00:51.320 --> 00:00:58.920 with typewriters thing all over again right right have you seen the Democracy 00:00:55.719 --> 00:01:01.559 mode though I have not seen democrac 00:00:58.920 --> 00:01:05.479 Anarchy and democracy votes so to to get into democracy vote there has to be more 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 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 00:01:11.799 --> 00:01:19.119 mode when you're in democracy mode you have 20 seconds to propose your next set 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 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 00:01:24.720 --> 00:01:30.079 whatever the votes okay but with an actual okay especially with the one 00:01:28.040 --> 00:01:33.759 minute delay that twitch has now yeah yeah boss fights and Final Fantasy good 00:01:32.399 --> 00:01:38.920 luck that's Absolut the most hilarious thing about it right now is that there's 00:01:36.399 --> 00:01:41.720 a huge delay no I know so that after after they fight someone they just kind 00:01:40.399 --> 00:01:46.719 of sit there and go like CU they're hitting like all the 00:01:44.119 --> 00:01:49.280 inputs from a minute ago so every time after they do something major they just 00:01:48.079 --> 00:01:54.680 kind of like run around and open the start menu for a while and then after 00:01:51.159 --> 00:01:54.680 like a minute they actually start going 00:01:55.119 --> 00:02:01.079 somewhere like okay good try all right 00:01:58.520 --> 00:02:04.360 well welcome to the show on Twitch that does not involve playing Pokemon 00:02:02.880 --> 00:02:08.679 although at some point we should probably just do like a like a Pokemon 00:02:06.920 --> 00:02:15.040 Afterparty CU I love Pok I have a Pokemon Stadium for N64 that would do it 00:02:12.879 --> 00:02:19.760 that would definitely work yeah I also have the adapter for N64 controllers you 00:02:17.120 --> 00:02:23.160 can plug uh Pokemon like old school Pokemon games into your N64 so if we 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 00:02:27.040 --> 00:02:33.879 all like if someone had asked me if someone walked up on me on the street 00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:36.120 and said do you think Luke has like you 00:02:33.879 --> 00:02:40.319 know some random freaking adapter the last plug some random freaking cartridge 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 00:02:43.440 --> 00:02:50.519 but he probably has one it somewhere I also have one for SN just in 00:02:48.400 --> 00:02:53.760 case that just in just in case we want to switch consoles yeah just in case 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 00:02:55.760 --> 00:03:01.120 show for you today is valve watching you 00:02:58.879 --> 00:03:07.799 browse that was the rumor going around on the internet and CEO Gabe Newell has 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 00:03:09.360 --> 00:03:18.159 about that later Facebook has acquired WhatsApp for 19 billion that's with a B 00:03:15.599 --> 00:03:23.879 billions of dollars um which is equivalent to about what was it $43 per 00:03:21.159 --> 00:03:28.760 user something along those lines 43 $48 per user that's ridiculous about $43 per 00:03:26.799 --> 00:03:32.879 user in spite of the fact that not a single one of those users users has 00:03:30.640 --> 00:03:36.200 given WhatsApp probably more than about $2 00:03:34.400 --> 00:03:43.400 ever so um next up uh Oculus Rift you might 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 00:03:45.760 --> 00:03:53.200 the way and Google Project Tango which we'll get more into later all right 00:04:17.720 --> 00:04:24.400 our sponsor today is Hotspot Shield guys we've actually got something really 00:04:22.079 --> 00:04:30.160 exciting to do with Hotspot Shield today and that is give away 10 Elite codes so 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 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 00:04:37.080 --> 00:04:43.400 exciting things like access newscasts or 00:04:40.600 --> 00:04:49.039 video Services outside of the region for which they were intended to be broadcast 00:04:45.479 --> 00:04:51.560 so a lot of um users outside of North 00:04:49.039 --> 00:04:55.880 America can use it to access us Netflix and a lot of folks wanting to enjoy 00:04:53.360 --> 00:05:00.240 content from the Sochi Olympic games have been changing their location to the 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 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 00:05:06.639 --> 00:05:11.280 elite membership by using offer code oh 00:05:09.880 --> 00:05:15.880 bollock I believe I seem to have forgotten my offer code using offer code 00:05:13.120 --> 00:05:21.280 lonus very difficult offer code to remember I've forgotten my name not 00:05:19.520 --> 00:05:25.880 everyone can be perfect like you all right so we had a couple people yeah 00:05:23.479 --> 00:05:28.600 let's just pull on the mic there we had a couple people complaining that the 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 00:05:30.800 --> 00:05:36.840 the shot to the point where hopefully you guys can hear it okay all right 00:05:35.080 --> 00:05:41.520 first topic for today here we go I'm going to monitor to 00:05:39.400 --> 00:05:44.560 make sure that people like the volume so just keep going forward are we starting 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 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 00:05:52.840 --> 00:06:00.400 off with OMG is valve spying on us all 00:05:58.319 --> 00:06:04.120 and we would know that for sure if I had remembered to grab my DisplayPort to 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 00:06:05.280 --> 00:06:11.280 on that sure so essentially no 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 00:06:12.639 --> 00:06:18.960 God Val's reading my stuff but not as many people freaked out as you might 00:06:16.240 --> 00:06:23.440 expect because it was valve I guarantee you if this was EA there would have been 00:06:20.400 --> 00:06:25.039 a nuclear explosion of Gamers um but it 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 00:06:27.360 --> 00:06:32.400 from the heavens came down and gave us the answer that we were looking for 00:06:30.800 --> 00:06:37.120 which was that it was not actually malicious did look for things locally 00:06:35.280 --> 00:06:42.000 but then grabbed only those things hashed them sent them back to valve 00:06:39.000 --> 00:06:44.680 servers um verified that you were being 00:06:42.000 --> 00:06:49.280 a cheater and then banned you because apparently the guys creating the hacks 00:06:47.280 --> 00:06:53.560 are getting frustrated that people are using their hacks without purchasing 00:06:51.280 --> 00:06:58.560 them imagine that imagine there being some overlap between cheaters and 00:06:56.080 --> 00:07:04.840 hackers so so cheaters have literally created their own form of DRM that has 00:07:01.720 --> 00:07:08.000 server callbacks so that they can make 00:07:04.840 --> 00:07:10.240 sure that you bought it which is insane 00:07:08.000 --> 00:07:13.800 um so valve kind of piggybacked on top of that tried to detect that and then 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 00:07:16.240 --> 00:07:21.560 website they were not Banning you based on that they were Banning you based on 00:07:19.319 --> 00:07:25.280 if there was call backs because the hack was currently running and they were 00:07:22.919 --> 00:07:30.440 trying to check for DRM so basically that usual DRM nonsense that makes 00:07:27.800 --> 00:07:36.759 people upset that is to say say uh constant phoning home from your software 00:07:33.520 --> 00:07:40.000 is what ultimately led to valve not 00:07:36.759 --> 00:07:42.360 doing that but just exploiting that 00:07:40.000 --> 00:07:48.199 someone else was taking advantage of your computer to send call backs to take 00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:53.319 advantage of the fact that some people weren't paying for their software so 00:07:50.080 --> 00:07:55.360 basically um no honor among Thieves 00:07:53.319 --> 00:08:00.159 companies that design cheats and then the people who use 00:07:57.800 --> 00:08:04.159 them yeah both they they're they're they're screwing each other over so it 00:08:01.639 --> 00:08:07.159 was only active for about 13 days at which point it was able to be 00:08:05.400 --> 00:08:12.720 circumvented because this happens all the time um and they fully expected that 00:08:09.199 --> 00:08:14.599 so it was pulled um uh Gabe is even 00:08:12.720 --> 00:08:17.840 claiming that it's possible that the original thread created throwing them 00:08:16.240 --> 00:08:22.039 under the bus was even just a social engineering attack from the people that 00:08:19.440 --> 00:08:26.240 made the hack or at least inspired by those people in some sort of way which 00:08:23.720 --> 00:08:32.279 does make a ton of sense um sorry uh he's quoted saying uh do we 00:08:29.520 --> 00:08:37.360 send your browser history to valve no do we care what porn sites you visit oh 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 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 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 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 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 00:08:57.000 --> 00:09:05.560 was anyone but valve yeah everyone would have fre freaked out do I 00:09:01.160 --> 00:09:08.440 particularly I mean do do I like them 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 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 00:09:15.760 --> 00:09:21.480 don't talk about what we do with valvan 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 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 00:09:28.720 --> 00:09:37.440 again and that that's a big problem to me because what about when they decide 00:09:34.600 --> 00:09:41.480 to be less valve at some point what about when but everyone does this 00:09:39.920 --> 00:09:45.720 literally everyone that has a security implementation has to they'll they'll 00:09:43.160 --> 00:09:49.959 probably contribute to some open open encryption form or whatever but what 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 00:09:51.880 --> 00:09:57.120 points well remember back in the early days of the lonus tech tips Forum when I 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 00:10:01.040 --> 00:10:08.720 the site would go down like that was like come on man so I understand why 00:10:07.079 --> 00:10:13.320 they're not doing this it just it does make me a little bit uncomfortable 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 00:10:16.519 --> 00:10:21.640 it is they're doing with doubt it or if 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 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 00:10:29.680 --> 00:10:35.240 protecting us against that in there and there's probably nothing saying that 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 00:10:37.760 --> 00:10:41.920 that being said yeah I don't know again 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 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 00:10:49.360 --> 00:10:55.839 like system information call backs that origin already does and they're completely open about 00:10:56.680 --> 00:11:02.800 right I don't know 00:11:00.200 --> 00:11:08.560 so yeah there's that um I think we covered everything with 00:11:04.880 --> 00:11:10.880 that no okay so less than one ten0 of 1% 00:11:08.560 --> 00:11:16.040 of the clients triggered by the second check were actually banned and that was 00:11:14.360 --> 00:11:21.480 570 people no sorry less than one1 1% of 00:11:19.120 --> 00:11:25.240 clients triggered the second check yeah so a lot of them got triggered by the 00:11:22.839 --> 00:11:29.399 first one but way less got triggered by the second one and of those that was 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 00:11:32.600 --> 00:11:38.279 those things where are we happy that valve is keeping our street safe so to 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 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 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 00:11:54.839 --> 00:12:04.839 hear from you guys do you cheat in 00:12:01.839 --> 00:12:09.079 multiplayer it's Anonymous I guess games 00:12:04.839 --> 00:12:11.760 yeah it's completely Anonymous um 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 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 00:12:16.519 --> 00:12:25.399 that's at Linus Tech um so yes 00:12:21.399 --> 00:12:28.000 sometimes yes rarely and 00:12:25.399 --> 00:12:33.320 no all right uh permissive that thing right yes yes yeah 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 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 00:12:41.279 --> 00:12:50.079 try to grab it and repost boom all right so in the meantime 00:12:47.399 --> 00:12:56.720 let's move on to our next topic which is Bitcoin ATMs potentially coming to the 00:12:52.680 --> 00:12:59.160 states maybe perhaps not 100% sure there 00:12:56.720 --> 00:13:05.000 is a Bitcoin ATM actually in our home Hometown here in Vancouver and that same 00:13:02.240 --> 00:13:11.480 company is looking to expand to different locations however one of the 00:13:07.720 --> 00:13:14.160 big things that just has to go away with 00:13:11.480 --> 00:13:21.120 respect to how Bitcoin works is the anonymity in order 00:13:16.240 --> 00:13:23.639 for anywhere to allow you to put a 00:13:21.120 --> 00:13:30.079 Bitcoin ATM so the one in Vancouver has a biometric scanner and I mean we can 00:13:26.519 --> 00:13:32.000 talk all day about how easy that is to 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 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 00:13:39.399 --> 00:13:46.680 of a whole other discussion topic but sometimes it's not about making a 00:13:44.480 --> 00:13:50.399 completely impervious security measure just having something there sometimes 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 00:13:55.440 --> 00:14:00.199 forge no but are you going to do it am I 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 00:14:03.360 --> 00:14:08.399 long ago which was the idea of yes okay 00:14:06.800 --> 00:14:11.639 maybe the facial recognition stuff is pretty easy to break through and maybe 00:14:10.120 --> 00:14:14.839 like fingerprint Biometrics are pretty easy to bre break through and maybe 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 00:14:17.000 --> 00:14:22.680 every single one of those good luck yep 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 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 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 00:14:35.160 --> 00:14:38.839 an hour and give him a gun come 00:14:39.320 --> 00:14:44.519 on yeah yeah I don't know so okay I 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 00:14:47.600 --> 00:14:52.120 guys putting the ATM in will probably be robocoin which are the same guys that 00:14:50.839 --> 00:14:55.839 put the one in Vancouver like he was just talking about you would be able to 00:14:53.880 --> 00:15:01.759 withdraw money in USD or you'd be able to deposit USD in order to contribute 00:14:59.000 --> 00:15:05.399 rute towards your Bitcoin account um they want to put machines in Seattle and 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 00:15:07.920 --> 00:15:13.560 Los Angeles and that hasn't happened yet due to the problems that lanis was just 00:15:11.680 --> 00:15:17.279 talking about with the the requirement of being able to identify the person at 00:15:15.360 --> 00:15:21.240 the machine it's a sketchy thing for lawmakers they everyone's kind of on the 00:15:19.240 --> 00:15:24.560 fence about allowing Bitcoin into their cities 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 00:15:26.639 --> 00:15:34.160 talked about this offline and I think it's an interesting topic to me the 00:15:31.199 --> 00:15:39.800 biggest reason that I can come up with that I think Bitcoin will fail is the 00:15:37.440 --> 00:15:46.560 negative press you can make the argument all day that no press is bad press but 00:15:43.839 --> 00:15:51.920 bad press is bad press when your competitors are getting good press and 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 00:15:54.680 --> 00:16:01.680 was ridiculous just for a lark they get 00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:05.160 so much good press and good vibe around 00:16:01.680 --> 00:16:07.880 them whereas with Bitcoin every other 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 00:16:09.639 --> 00:16:17.560 high-profile it's like being a star athlete in a city that follows you 00:16:14.680 --> 00:16:22.519 really closely your Highs are the expectation and your lows get blown out 00:16:20.279 --> 00:16:27.399 of proportion because you're the big kid so with Bitcoin every time there's a 00:16:24.519 --> 00:16:33.600 wild fluctuation in value it explodes every time mount gaau isn't paying 00:16:29.880 --> 00:16:37.240 people it explodes every time you know 00:16:33.600 --> 00:16:39.319 um a a drug ring or every time there's a 00:16:37.240 --> 00:16:44.120 massive child pornography Bust or something like that and it turns out 00:16:41.519 --> 00:16:49.279 that Bitcoins Were Somehow involved in the transaction any way in any way if 00:16:46.800 --> 00:16:52.920 it's super minor even if because remember it's a lot of the time the 00:16:51.440 --> 00:16:59.959 folks writing a newscast they're basically Layman right 00:16:56.480 --> 00:17:03.079 so even if it was litecoins or dogecoins 00:16:59.959 --> 00:17:04.319 or you know lonus coins or whatever else 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 00:17:08.880 --> 00:17:15.160 they'll say Bitcoin so it the name will 00:17:13.480 --> 00:17:19.959 be somewhere in that negativity and for that reason I think that bitcoin's a 00:17:17.559 --> 00:17:24.160 Pioneer I think that it sets a new precedent I think that cryptocurrency 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 00:17:25.600 --> 00:17:31.240 in the longer term and then that whole uh like observation what you feel about 00:17:29.720 --> 00:17:37.559 the different coins and the aura around them thing Bitcoin has drug sex and 00:17:34.919 --> 00:17:41.520 weaponry then Litecoin has a whole bunch of people on the internet using AMD 00:17:39.160 --> 00:17:46.480 graphics cards to generate what is essentially going to turn into 00:17:43.480 --> 00:17:48.960 Bitcoins and then Dogecoin is like lol 00:17:46.480 --> 00:17:53.320 charity because I don't know what else to do with 00:17:50.000 --> 00:17:54.960 this so it's like that's how um not 00:17:53.320 --> 00:17:59.320 small portion of the internet sees the whole situation so then what do you 00:17:56.559 --> 00:18:04.720 expect to actually come out of it interesting so I mean with that said if 00:18:03.039 --> 00:18:11.000 Bitcoin is the one that ends up with an infrastructure like ATMs then great but 00:18:08.120 --> 00:18:15.360 if Bitcoin again paves the way by having like four ATMs and then someone better 00:18:13.440 --> 00:18:19.880 organized comes along and goes yep we're going to take that concept and we're 00:18:16.840 --> 00:18:21.640 going to go massively all over the 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 00:18:24.200 --> 00:18:29.440 that could be very successful and that makes sense because bitcoin's going to 00:18:27.520 --> 00:18:32.559 go in and get lawmakers to approve these machines and then when another person 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 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 00:18:39.600 --> 00:18:46.200 be the first tech YouTuber where would I have even gotten 00:18:43.000 --> 00:18:48.760 the idea like no honestly I mean it's 00:18:46.200 --> 00:18:52.679 it's really tough to be the first one yeah I'm okay with sloppy 00:18:52.960 --> 00:19:01.480 seconds all right so our next story is Facebook a Qui 00:18:59.320 --> 00:19:04.480 WhatsApp for 19 00:19:05.159 --> 00:19:11.440 billion 19 billion so this pretty much 00:19:09.440 --> 00:19:17.679 precludes any further talks with Snapchat because WhatsApp has an 00:19:14.039 --> 00:19:18.760 enormous what is it 470 million users 00:19:17.679 --> 00:19:25.440 something like that and then they're adding 1 million users per day right now 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 00:19:28.120 --> 00:19:34.919 purely um dollars and cents perspective where 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 00:19:37.840 --> 00:19:44.000 some odd million Revenue last 00:19:41.799 --> 00:19:48.960 year Revenue not profit this is a company 00:19:47.159 --> 00:19:53.200 with like 50 employees you know those shirt cannons 00:19:51.240 --> 00:19:57.880 that you see at like events yeah it's like Silicon Val like like apple and 00:19:55.480 --> 00:20:04.240 Facebook and these Google just have shirt cannons of money and there's like 00:20:00.559 --> 00:20:07.799 boom boom just like see what we can hit 00:20:04.240 --> 00:20:09.320 who cares no research just boom let's 00:20:07.799 --> 00:20:14.080 just shoot money at everything and see what happens so that is one way of 00:20:11.880 --> 00:20:19.200 looking at it is is they they are spending many many dollars on the penny 00:20:17.600 --> 00:20:24.280 for what the company is actually worth from a strictly Revenue 00:20:21.000 --> 00:20:25.960 perspective and there's some validity 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 00:20:29.559 --> 00:20:35.320 for a social network and I have a hard 00:20:32.880 --> 00:20:41.159 time classifying WhatsApp as a social network but more on more on that in a 00:20:37.919 --> 00:20:45.120 moment for $43 per 00:20:41.159 --> 00:20:47.679 user and when you consider what other 00:20:45.120 --> 00:20:53.880 social networks there are with that many users and what it would cost to buy you 00:20:51.159 --> 00:20:58.679 know I don't know Facebook is a great example or Microsoft what what that 00:20:56.039 --> 00:21:02.559 would actually cost then it looks potentially like a value and then some 00:21:00.640 --> 00:21:07.200 of the other justification is is the the growth of WhatsApp right now where it's 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 00:21:09.039 --> 00:21:14.360 years they could have two billion users 00:21:12.760 --> 00:21:19.279 and a third of the entire world I mean in India 400 million users are on 00:21:17.279 --> 00:21:22.919 WhatsApp or something like that maybe I'm maybe I'm getting the overall 00:21:20.600 --> 00:21:27.200 numbers wrong right now how many users do they have right now India boasts 400 00:21:25.400 --> 00:21:31.120 million active members yeah 400 million active members so 00:21:29.080 --> 00:21:34.159 I mean that that's that's absolutely huge it's an emerging market that you 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 00:21:36.039 --> 00:21:43.760 monetizing such a large user base should be a 00:21:39.440 --> 00:21:45.799 no-brainer so then that leads to two 00:21:43.760 --> 00:21:50.720 conversations before your whole thing about why they why you think they want 00:21:47.720 --> 00:21:53.440 it so conversation number one is I don't 00:21:50.720 --> 00:22:00.240 really see WhatsApp as a social network to me WhatsApp is a messaging utility 00:21:56.200 --> 00:22:04.480 that can come and go as quickly as icq 00:22:00.240 --> 00:22:08.240 MSN or anything else I don't think that 00:22:04.480 --> 00:22:13.840 the experience of using Whatsapp is 00:22:08.240 --> 00:22:16.960 nearly as rich as something like um even 00:22:13.840 --> 00:22:19.200 Twitter because Twitter is all about 00:22:16.960 --> 00:22:25.720 connecting with people that you don't already have a connection to Whatsapp is 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 00:22:28.600 --> 00:22:35.520 don't want to pay for text messages a paradigm that's probably going to go 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 00:22:37.440 --> 00:22:43.400 gained popularity we were still looking at cell phone plans that were like 00:22:41.080 --> 00:22:48.159 here's your 250 text messages a month yeah yeah that's where WhatsApp came 00:22:45.880 --> 00:22:53.440 from it was a free way to send text messages not you know some kind of 00:22:51.320 --> 00:22:57.880 amazing Paradigm shifting uh communication platform that connects you 00:22:55.279 --> 00:23:03.000 with people I mean Twitter's amazing through Twitter t i i do most of my 00:23:00.600 --> 00:23:06.679 Outreach to people that I don't know whether it's Nixie pixel who we've 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 00:23:08.000 --> 00:23:15.000 requests for that how would I reach these people if it wasn't for Twitter 00:23:12.880 --> 00:23:19.640 because Twitter is a way for people who normally wouldn't talk to you to ignore 00:23:17.840 --> 00:23:22.799 you if they want or if they see something really interesting as they 00:23:20.880 --> 00:23:29.600 flip through their feed be like oh yeah sure and engage with you WhatsApp isn't 00:23:26.919 --> 00:23:35.679 that so who cares I'm going to cut in one quick 00:23:31.600 --> 00:23:38.600 second um we've got two mixing articles 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 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 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 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 00:23:52.400 --> 00:23:57.840 into that y so the Internet it's a large 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 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 00:24:06.720 --> 00:24:13.240 what the other thing was that's the biggest question to me yeah oh no sorry 00:24:10.440 --> 00:24:16.039 and can they monetize it right uh there's a there's a article that came 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 00:24:18.919 --> 00:24:24.000 Facebook yeah but no even Facebook I 00:24:22.000 --> 00:24:28.039 think has said that there's there's like they're not changing the structure in 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 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 00:24:35.039 --> 00:24:41.080 cost and then exploit them as hardcore as you can until they all migrate to 00:24:39.080 --> 00:24:45.559 something else so the the real question here then is can they get their 19 00:24:43.399 --> 00:24:51.240 billion back before everyone migrates to something else and maybe that's it maybe 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 00:24:53.640 --> 00:25:00.399 everything I do here at Linus Media Group isn't on the scale of what someone 00:24:57.679 --> 00:25:04.080 like Mark Zuckerberg is doing where he's working with billions of dollars the way 00:25:02.559 --> 00:25:07.399 that I would work with hundreds of dollars you know when I look at 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 00:25:10.720 --> 00:25:16.480 show it's where will that show be in 00:25:14.440 --> 00:25:20.640 three years when we're still developing it and we want it to be sustainable to 00:25:18.440 --> 00:25:25.559 the point where we can attract sponsors we can attract viewers and we can make 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 00:25:27.440 --> 00:25:32.679 trying to do whereas if Facebook is just 00:25:30.440 --> 00:25:36.960 kind of looking at this going okay well we're not worried about turning WhatsApp 00:25:34.840 --> 00:25:41.760 into a sustainable business that can bring in a billion dollars a year of 00:25:39.399 --> 00:25:46.840 revenue for 20 years because 20 years in the internet game is is an incredibly 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 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 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 00:25:58.039 --> 00:26:04.000 each easily then we'll make double on our investment or if we could turn each 00:26:01.360 --> 00:26:09.559 of them into $100 by selling out so hardcore when the time comes then we 00:26:06.480 --> 00:26:11.159 could make you know 5x back on our 00:26:09.559 --> 00:26:16.760 investment or whatever that number ends up being so if that's the way of looking 00:26:13.440 --> 00:26:18.720 at it then hey there you go maybe it's a 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 00:26:20.080 --> 00:26:26.159 something that we've started doing on the show now because we have to because 00:26:23.559 --> 00:26:30.279 it makes sense is inspect how everything that happens on the internet could be 00:26:27.559 --> 00:26:34.320 terrible so um not that long ago Facebook released an update um and we 00:26:32.919 --> 00:26:38.000 actually missed this on the W show but Facebook released an update M making it 00:26:36.559 --> 00:26:41.679 so that Facebook could read your text messages and like your your call 00:26:40.399 --> 00:26:45.919 information so they could know who you're calling I think that part but I 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 00:26:47.760 --> 00:26:53.960 to read all of your text messages and all of your kind of text messages 00:26:51.640 --> 00:26:57.240 through WhatsApp so they're just expanding the amount of text messages 00:26:55.720 --> 00:27:00.360 they can read so they can have all of your Facebook interaction which is a 00:26:58.720 --> 00:27:03.720 huge amount of interaction all of your text message interaction and all of your 00:27:02.080 --> 00:27:08.919 kind of text message interaction which is WhatsApp excluding BBM which is I'm 00:27:06.720 --> 00:27:12.679 sure microscopic compared to what'sapp and then of course there's the whole 00:27:10.399 --> 00:27:17.760 argument that they want to they want to get into the underground of messaging 00:27:15.000 --> 00:27:20.799 yeah but then figure out how to monetize it later or something I mean all the 00:27:19.240 --> 00:27:26.080 people that are interested in things like Snapchat or even I guess what's up 00:27:23.360 --> 00:27:29.799 to a much lesser extent um those kind of those underground folks are going to 00:27:27.720 --> 00:27:32.760 have no interest in continuing to use that platform once Facebook owns it I 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 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 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 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 00:27:47.600 --> 00:27:56.320 let's go ahead and so 80% of you do not 00:27:51.720 --> 00:27:59.679 cheat and 20% of you cheat rarely 00:27:56.320 --> 00:28:03.120 sometimes or all the the time 2% of you 00:27:59.679 --> 00:28:07.440 say you cheat all the time so if valve 00:28:03.120 --> 00:28:11.880 only even got to stage two with what was 00:28:07.440 --> 00:28:14.559 it 0.1% Point uh what0 one of a percent 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 00:28:17.279 --> 00:28:25.440 whatever they're doing probably didn't dig that deep because they didn't catch 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 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 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 00:28:39.600 --> 00:28:45.480 it it has to be multipronged all the time yeah so this is one of their 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 00:28:47.480 --> 00:28:53.320 things they can potentially do they also have the thing where if someone gets 00:28:51.519 --> 00:28:56.200 reported if you're playing the game and someone gets reported I don't remember 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 00:28:57.720 --> 00:29:03.960 actually really cool is you would be able to go in and watch their game along 00:29:02.399 --> 00:29:07.279 with a whole bunch of other people um and it wouldn't show their 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 00:29:10.399 --> 00:29:15.840 they're using wall hack uh plausible deniability like all these other 00:29:13.600 --> 00:29:19.720 different options and then if you voted along the same with basically everyone 00:29:17.960 --> 00:29:24.279 else that voted if you agreed with the ending verdict yeah then you got to keep 00:29:22.200 --> 00:29:28.159 going and keep reviewing footage so it tried to it kept everyone honest because 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 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 00:29:34.279 --> 00:29:40.600 front for them I know League of Legends does a similar thing um so like they 00:29:38.880 --> 00:29:44.799 have many options so just because this one didn't get a huge wide spectrum 00:29:42.559 --> 00:29:48.919 doesn't mean that vac isn't trying yeah because games like 00:29:46.640 --> 00:29:52.679 Counter-Strike are huge so cheat creators for those type of games yeah 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 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 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 00:30:04.919 --> 00:30:11.679 doing a movie review of it but it's one of those topics that seems very 00:30:08.519 --> 00:30:14.320 polarizing um there's a group of people 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 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 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 00:30:24.559 --> 00:30:34.200 you argue objectively for the merits of a movie you can't 00:30:30.760 --> 00:30:36.960 so I like to use the term exploit in 00:30:34.200 --> 00:30:41.000 games uh as long as it doesn't affect anyone else so single 00:30:38.840 --> 00:30:43.279 player CU if you're if you're exploiting or cheating you're doing something that 00:30:42.039 --> 00:30:46.440 someone else can't so it's affecting other people in multiplay buying 00:30:45.039 --> 00:30:50.559 WhatsApp let's Facebook take out the competition growing bigger Google help 00:30:48.399 --> 00:30:55.760 focus on furthering their yeah probably okay Amed says I disagree 00:30:53.320 --> 00:30:59.639 WhatsApp sends audio video group chats Etc it's not going anywhere just not as 00:30:58.039 --> 00:31:03.880 popular in North America oh it's plenty popular here okay not as popular as in 00:31:01.480 --> 00:31:07.960 other places but it is popular I just don't think that that 00:31:05.679 --> 00:31:11.919 functionality qualifies it as a social network because I don't think it's any 00:31:10.440 --> 00:31:18.279 more of a social network than a telephone that's all my telephone can 00:31:14.960 --> 00:31:20.279 send audio video group chats Etc but 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 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 00:31:26.480 --> 00:31:32.080 think that if you Ahmed you decided that you were going to 00:31:30.200 --> 00:31:35.279 switch to something else and a couple of your buddies got together and they were 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 00:31:37.039 --> 00:31:43.000 functionality was somehow in some way minutely better than WhatsApp I think it 00:31:41.480 --> 00:31:47.279 could be displaced very easily I did use the group chat thing a 00:31:45.320 --> 00:31:51.519 lot when I used to go to school because everyone in all of my classes were 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 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 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 00:32:01.360 --> 00:32:08.320 stupid and upsetting people and then that being that uh there you go 16 00:32:05.679 --> 00:32:14.600 billion Cash 3 billion Facebook shares um according to wow probably equates to 00:32:12.600 --> 00:32:18.200 19 I guess what's up main appeals to keep in touch with overseas friends 00:32:15.880 --> 00:32:21.720 absolutely but then again hundred billion things that could MSN had so 00:32:20.519 --> 00:32:27.039 much potential I'm not going to go on this rant again but MSN could MSN 00:32:24.559 --> 00:32:29.880 Messenger could have easily been I honestly I think it would the coolest 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 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 00:32:37.840 --> 00:32:46.440 this functionality ages ago all they needed was a mobile version yeah 00:32:44.159 --> 00:32:50.000 anyway redirects to YouTube video which redirects to Twitch stream well yeah but 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 00:32:51.880 --> 00:32:57.480 known exploits from ingame glitches I don't cheat why cheat there's no pride 00:32:54.960 --> 00:33:02.120 in cheating absolutely what'sapp isn't anything like Twitter so can't be 00:32:58.799 --> 00:33:04.120 compared yeah I know WhatsApp made me 00:33:02.120 --> 00:33:09.639 able to use smilees 00:33:06.519 --> 00:33:11.200 what that doesn't make it that's you can 00:33:09.639 --> 00:33:14.000 use smilees in I know it's different from Twitter we never said it was the 00:33:12.679 --> 00:33:18.279 same as Twitter what I said is Twitter is a social network and I was saying 00:33:16.120 --> 00:33:20.840 WhatsApp is not so actually that's what I was saying is that they're nothing 00:33:19.399 --> 00:33:25.000 alike I think it comes down to how you define social networks too because it 00:33:23.600 --> 00:33:29.080 technically it's a social network if you create a group chat because it is a 00:33:26.840 --> 00:33:32.600 network of people socially interacting fine then is 00:33:30.600 --> 00:33:37.279 three-way calling a social network see then I don't know I don't 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 00:33:38.799 --> 00:33:44.600 not talking yet don't get satisfaction from cheating okay what is the point of 00:33:42.919 --> 00:33:48.080 cheating in games even in single player games that would just kill the challenge 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 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 00:33:53.840 --> 00:34:00.200 around and I usually find those cheats to be like sandbox games like cheat in 00:33:58.000 --> 00:34:06.519 games like just cause and GTA are hilarious right but like I yeah Peter 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 00:34:08.960 --> 00:34:14.760 cheat because getting a ban on Steam would be a disaster with all the games 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 00:34:16.760 --> 00:34:22.079 steam Library larger and larger and larger getting banned will have much 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 00:34:23.800 --> 00:34:30.280 that'll again some that aren't permanent now as well deterrence for the casuals 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 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 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 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 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 00:34:53.560 --> 00:35:00.480 tell they just all get crushed and then it's usually somewhat okay again but 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 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 00:35:07.200 --> 00:35:13.640 and like look at their steam profile and was like created one day ago owns one 00:35:10.560 --> 00:35:17.359 game and you're like oh my God 00:35:13.640 --> 00:35:19.160 hello like that happens so much it's 00:35:17.359 --> 00:35:25.560 frustrating all right so let's move on to our next topic this is something that 00:35:22.160 --> 00:35:27.720 I actually disagree with the general con 00:35:25.560 --> 00:35:33.440 this might turn into a rant uh and Amazon plans to increase membership fees 00:35:30.560 --> 00:35:41.200 this is posted on the Forum by yeah sorry man lot sure um Amazon 00:35:39.200 --> 00:35:46.520 says it may increase its Prime membership fee by as much as $40 so it's 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 00:35:48.200 --> 00:35:56.359 something like that if you extrapolate it out uh or break it down or whatever 00:35:52.880 --> 00:35:56.359 it is you're going to do 00:35:56.640 --> 00:36:01.520 um a lot of people super upset about 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 00:36:03.359 --> 00:36:10.119 like the UK or the US Amazon Prime entitles you to a few things number one 00:36:07.920 --> 00:36:13.839 and this is the big one is free shipping so you get two-day shipping on 00:36:11.760 --> 00:36:20.680 qualifying items and then slower shipping on other items and it is 00:36:16.520 --> 00:36:22.880 unlimited you could ship a pen a day 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 00:36:24.680 --> 00:36:30.400 be included with the fee so for I mean of course with a game with something 00:36:28.640 --> 00:36:34.720 like this it's a numbers game for every person who ships something every day 00:36:32.480 --> 00:36:38.040 you're going to have hopefully someone who ships something once every six 00:36:36.480 --> 00:36:41.079 months and just bought the Prime Membership on an impulse and you're 00:36:39.560 --> 00:36:44.400 mostly just taking money from them to subsidize and because it's easy yeah 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 00:36:51.240 --> 00:36:56.839 is expensive oh okay sorry I hadn't finished going through the benefits so 00:36:55.200 --> 00:37:01.920 benefit number two is you get access to the Kindle uh lending library which 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 00:37:04.960 --> 00:37:11.040 lending books and basically amounts to a free book per month there's no time 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 00:37:13.720 --> 00:37:19.200 I've never actually used it I don't have a Prime membership and then benefit 00:37:16.720 --> 00:37:22.000 number three is access to an unlimited amount of Amazon's on demand video 00:37:21.040 --> 00:37:28.400 streaming service so for 80 bucks a year if you 00:37:25.839 --> 00:37:31.599 consider and okay it's not up to the caliber of Netflix but when you consider 00:37:30.079 --> 00:37:36.319 that you're paying $6 a month for Netflix and that's just video streaming 00:37:34.319 --> 00:37:41.599 or if you consider that a subscription to audible.com uh one of our sponsors 00:37:39.119 --> 00:37:45.280 actually is going to cost I actually can't even 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 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 00:37:52.359 --> 00:37:58.760 yeah yeah exactly head over to audible.com anyway so the point is okay 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 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 00:38:07.000 --> 00:38:15.400 thing a month you're still paying about what US Canadians pay to ship anything 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 00:38:17.079 --> 00:38:24.119 could buy on Amazon especially with two-day delivery instead of somewhere 00:38:20.599 --> 00:38:25.720 else then yeah it doesn't make sense for 00:38:24.119 --> 00:38:29.160 you but I just find it hard to believe that this is such an enormous deal 00:38:27.599 --> 00:38:32.800 breaker for everyone this is something people don't understand shipping is 00:38:30.920 --> 00:38:36.400 really expensive someone someone in the chat says there's UK fashion site that 00:38:34.720 --> 00:38:40.760 has free worldwide delivery with no minimum spend and it only costs about 00:38:38.280 --> 00:38:47.200 $10 10 EUR a year to get next day shipping although there it's clothing so 00:38:43.800 --> 00:38:49.119 good for you Royal post is cheap and 00:38:47.200 --> 00:38:54.000 it's clothing so there's probably massive markup and margin anyways so 00:38:51.680 --> 00:38:57.760 shipping is expensive and if you think that you're getting shipping for free 00:38:56.240 --> 00:39:04.160 think again you're probably paying you are paying for it you are always paying 00:39:00.400 --> 00:39:06.520 for shipping somewhere so let's take um 00:39:04.160 --> 00:39:11.960 let's take Asian countries for example where worldwide shipping costs like a 00:39:09.839 --> 00:39:16.640 buck you know you can buy stuff on Deal extreme for like a $150 with free 00:39:14.800 --> 00:39:22.400 shipping anywhere in the world how does that work subsidies they are getting 00:39:19.200 --> 00:39:25.359 subsidized I mean we often joke that it 00:39:22.400 --> 00:39:29.720 costs less to ship something from Britain to our house than to sh 00:39:27.599 --> 00:39:33.280 something down the street inite of the fact that if someone ship something from 00:39:31.400 --> 00:39:37.880 Great Britain to our house it will still have to cross the entirety of Canada 00:39:35.960 --> 00:39:41.920 never mind just down our own Street in order to get to us which means Canada 00:39:40.040 --> 00:39:45.920 Post is actually carrying it across the country but if I were to send something 00:39:43.720 --> 00:39:52.520 to Halifax I would probably be spending 15 20 bucks minimum so how does it work 00:39:49.119 --> 00:39:56.599 subsidies in countries where shipping is 00:39:52.520 --> 00:39:58.440 cheap you are paying for that subsidy so 00:39:56.599 --> 00:40:02.760 that someone can pay some other country's shipping company in order to 00:40:00.560 --> 00:40:06.520 move it for them once it gets there so you're paying for it somewhere for 00:40:04.359 --> 00:40:10.560 companies like Amazon where they're shipping within the US where shipping is 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 00:40:13.440 --> 00:40:19.560 some numbers that I shouldn't have access to but that's what some a very 00:40:17.000 --> 00:40:24.119 large company like Amazon or Newegg is probably paying with someone like a 00:40:21.760 --> 00:40:29.480 courier that three letters in their name and sometimes they drop things okay so 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 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 00:40:37.880 --> 00:40:43.400 that you paid for it somewhere somewhere whether it's a 00:40:41.720 --> 00:40:46.520 membership or whether it's in the margin of the product and anyone who thinks 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 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 00:40:55.359 --> 00:41:01.720 support Amazon increasing the rate in order to make the business make sense 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 00:41:03.800 --> 00:41:09.280 and if shipping costs go up because let's face it gas isn't getting cheaper 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 00:41:12.599 --> 00:41:20.520 all you people complaining about it can just because up here in Canada it sorry 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 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 00:41:27.680 --> 00:41:33.560 shipping from anywhere it's $120 a year I was like I 00:41:32.119 --> 00:41:40.520 wouldn't do that for $120 a year you could have free 00:41:36.680 --> 00:41:43.760 shipping from Amazon.com boom done well 00:41:40.520 --> 00:41:45.160 yeah definitely do I don't know sucks I 00:41:43.760 --> 00:41:51.880 don't bu anything terrible yeah the pricing sucks yeah but yeah i' I'd be 00:41:48.119 --> 00:41:54.680 completely down um I I okay from another 00:41:51.880 --> 00:42:03.319 perspective I would be not stoked that my price was doubling it's not doubling 00:41:57.440 --> 00:42:06.640 $40 to 79 up to 120 or up to1 1999 no no 00:42:03.319 --> 00:42:08.280 no by up to $40 from 79 yeah sorry it's 00:42:06.640 --> 00:42:14.800 awkward wording in the dou okay so not quite doubling but still by 50% yeah 00:42:11.359 --> 00:42:16.640 like I still wouldn't be stoked but I'd 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 00:42:17.960 --> 00:42:22.839 whole lot of complaining that goes on but then people I think a lot people are 00:42:21.520 --> 00:42:28.079 actually yeah and like they haven't changed their price for what N9 years 00:42:24.680 --> 00:42:29.559 yeah like dude 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 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 00:42:37.079 --> 00:42:42.640 become more expensive in a short period of time as 00:42:41.200 --> 00:42:46.960 long as they're still growing as long as their user base is still increasing 00:42:44.599 --> 00:42:50.960 dramatically bandwidth costs are going down unless they have to start paying 00:42:48.880 --> 00:42:54.000 isps unless they have to start paying ISP but they're going to keep fighting 00:42:52.280 --> 00:42:57.680 that they're going to keep fighting that and they're they're changing laws 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 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 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 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 00:43:12.920 --> 00:43:22.240 here all right and then go ahead and enter the password here and then enter 00:43:19.000 --> 00:43:24.319 the verification code here oh 00:43:22.240 --> 00:43:31.200 fortunately I have my Pebble back 189 582 uh you know I saw so much potential 00:43:28.280 --> 00:43:34.319 in the qualcom talk yeah really saw a lot of potential if you guys haven't 00:43:32.440 --> 00:43:40.440 seen my review of The Talk already even if you're not that interested in smart 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 00:43:42.599 --> 00:43:49.440 the next five years and number two it's an interesting video to watch cuz like 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 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 00:43:54.680 --> 00:43:59.760 time trying to figure out um everything 00:43:57.960 --> 00:44:03.319 that was good and everything that could be improved about it to the point where 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 00:44:32.480 --> 00:44:39.160 technology but we're going to find something that is not technology that is 00:44:36.200 --> 00:44:46.280 more important than whatever is going on in the life of Canadian pop sensation 00:44:42.480 --> 00:44:49.480 Justin Bieber so this week is and I have 00:44:46.280 --> 00:44:52.800 been corrected it is not the Ukraine it 00:44:49.480 --> 00:44:56.359 is Ukraine this week there is a whole 00:44:52.800 --> 00:44:59.200 lot going down in Ukraine right now and 00:44:56.359 --> 00:45:03.680 and Venezuela and in Venezuela um Ukraine is the one that's making a lot 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 00:45:05.599 --> 00:45:12.599 reactions going on like uh for example there are Ukrainian athletes that are 00:45:10.119 --> 00:45:17.599 just leaving leaving the games just to go home and show their solidarity so uh 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 00:45:20.480 --> 00:45:25.960 of heading back to show their support before their event was over yeah before 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 00:45:28.880 --> 00:45:35.839 home we're going to head back there the the death tolls being reported by the 00:45:32.800 --> 00:45:37.720 media I think are in the 35 range but 00:45:35.839 --> 00:45:42.599 protesters are saying that they are higher than that uh Health Ministry has 00:45:39.559 --> 00:45:44.040 said 77 people were killed and 577 were 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 00:45:47.680 --> 00:45:52.319 at it yesterday morning it was 35 if I 00:45:50.680 --> 00:45:58.400 recall correctly that was what was being reported so it's and then the day before 00:45:54.839 --> 00:46:00.319 that I believe it was 13 or 11 or 00:45:58.400 --> 00:46:02.960 something like that so it's it's going up very quickly the violence is 00:46:01.640 --> 00:46:07.160 escalating it's one of those things where on this show we don't typically 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 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 00:46:13.520 --> 00:46:21.200 should all respect and people shouldn't be dying over a conflict the police 00:46:19.160 --> 00:46:26.400 shouldn't be dying the pro testers shouldn't be dying and none of those 00:46:23.640 --> 00:46:29.400 things are right and so it's just something that is more important than 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 00:46:31.240 --> 00:46:38.559 too much depth yeah we're not we're not 00:46:34.680 --> 00:46:39.960 like in the field reporters we we don't 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 00:46:41.720 --> 00:46:47.160 check it out probably in your own time and develop your own opinions about it 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 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 00:46:54.240 --> 00:46:58.680 hockey yeah 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 00:47:02.280 --> 00:47:07.920 Bieber or something like that and then it was updated later it was a video 00:47:06.000 --> 00:47:11.119 billboard so what did they say bad terrible bet something like that that 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 00:47:13.040 --> 00:47:22.400 Eagle with a golden chain around it saying bber and I was 00:47:18.920 --> 00:47:23.319 like yikes it was pretty funny it was 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 00:47:27.760 --> 00:47:34.359 cover this very briefly as part of our sponsor segment so Hotspot Shield the 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 00:47:36.000 --> 00:47:42.880 making it more difficult for websites to figure out who you are and where you 00:47:39.839 --> 00:47:43.920 live making it more difficult for um 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 00:47:46.240 --> 00:47:52.079 content that is geo-restricted so whether you just want to like I don't 00:47:49.760 --> 00:47:55.200 know comedy central.com you want to like watch some videos and it's us region 00:47:54.040 --> 00:47:59.359 locked and you happen to live in Australia or Canada or great bit Britain 00:47:58.000 --> 00:48:03.640 or anywhere in the world you want to enjoy that content Hotspot Shield can 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 00:48:06.000 --> 00:48:13.200 that it can also allow you to circumvent things like firewalls I don't 00:48:10.720 --> 00:48:16.240 necessarily encourage this use of it and it's probably terrible I'm talking about 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 00:48:18.160 --> 00:48:25.359 tips Forum that they use it to circumvent uh blocks at their school Y 00:48:22.400 --> 00:48:29.280 and sort of get around content blocks so content blocks at schools content blocks 00:48:27.119 --> 00:48:32.480 within countries can allow you to access all kinds of stuff that you couldn't 00:48:30.480 --> 00:48:36.480 before one really good thing is you can access Sochi Winter Games content 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 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 00:48:42.079 --> 00:48:47.000 country and it's region locked then you can go ahead and just get around that 00:48:45.119 --> 00:48:50.160 with Hotspot Shield so the elite membership is really the one I'd 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 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 00:48:56.799 --> 00:49:03.200 head over to bit. lehs share and then 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 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 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 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 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 00:49:26.880 --> 00:49:32.559 sponsored giveaway from Hotspot Shield thread on the lus tech tips Forum guys 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 00:49:35.119 --> 00:49:43.000 Monon elite membership is post in that thread with a screenshot of you with the 00:49:40.760 --> 00:49:46.559 trial of elite installed and then you have a chance to win a free six-month 00:49:45.200 --> 00:49:53.280 membership to it that's pretty legit yeah it's actually a really good giveaway 00:49:48.799 --> 00:49:55.280 yeah all right so topic moving on next 00:49:53.280 --> 00:49:58.040 we have you know it's hard to have a better than Bieber segment when 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 00:50:02.559 --> 00:50:05.760 better than Bieber better than 00:50:05.920 --> 00:50:11.400 Bieber okay okay uh actually guys should 00:50:09.000 --> 00:50:11.400 we do a 00:50:12.880 --> 00:50:18.319 t-shirt the W show better than be like 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 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 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 00:50:29.319 --> 00:50:35.599 without the text the wow was cuz we figured people probably wouldn't want um 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 00:50:38.839 --> 00:50:45.400 Bieber hash better than Bieber so we didn't want people asking our t-shirt 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 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 00:50:53.720 --> 00:51:00.960 whatever that is probably okay yeah sure gotcha gotcha 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 00:51:05.680 --> 00:51:12.119 there's also uh W stealth so oh there we go there you go 00:51:10.400 --> 00:51:16.760 so w stealth looks like that so w stealth so just picture it with like a 00:51:14.280 --> 00:51:21.599 little like better than Bieber right here we should totally do that all right 00:51:18.720 --> 00:51:21.599 moving on to our next 00:51:21.760 --> 00:51:27.200 topic we also have a I'm super stoked 00:51:24.839 --> 00:51:31.880 for the Adventure Time One where is this thread why does this 00:51:29.200 --> 00:51:38.599 happen I looked at this like right before the uh is GNA happen to 00:51:35.319 --> 00:51:40.680 me yes we got to figure out a way for 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 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 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 00:51:51.760 --> 00:51:57.040 being said is that Elon Musk the founder 00:51:54.839 --> 00:52:02.440 of Tesla among other things has talked to Apple but that an 00:51:59.400 --> 00:52:05.280 acquisition of Tesla is 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 00:52:08.480 --> 00:52:15.000 collaboration between the companies which could manifest as a number of 00:52:12.839 --> 00:52:21.280 different things and the one that I would like to see and this is something 00:52:16.880 --> 00:52:23.200 that I called back when the iPhone 3G 00:52:21.280 --> 00:52:27.720 was a big deal because this was an argument like an ongoing argument 00:52:25.119 --> 00:52:32.760 between me and cameraman man the old ncx cameraman who did all my editing back 00:52:29.319 --> 00:52:36.200 then he was like what's Apple's next big 00:52:32.760 --> 00:52:38.400 Direction past smartphones and to me 00:52:36.200 --> 00:52:44.680 tablets are more of like an evolutionary step from a smart it's a big smartphone 00:52:40.400 --> 00:52:48.559 and I said I car and then I home because 00:52:44.680 --> 00:52:51.079 to me those were two things that could 00:52:48.559 --> 00:52:54.680 really truly benefit from the things that apple is so good at and for all the 00:52:53.240 --> 00:53:00.720 people that want to hate on Apple all they want good for you fine 00:52:56.960 --> 00:53:03.480 do it but you cannot argue with how good 00:53:00.720 --> 00:53:07.359 they are at taking existing Concepts and Technologies I mean Logan's video has 00:53:05.760 --> 00:53:11.160 Apple ever really invented every anything is actually a pretty good watch 00:53:09.720 --> 00:53:16.480 you should go check it out but what Apple's good at is taking things that 00:53:13.359 --> 00:53:20.240 are already invented and making them all 00:53:16.480 --> 00:53:24.000 work together in a way that is different 00:53:20.240 --> 00:53:27.839 and easier what could use a shakeup more 00:53:24.000 --> 00:53:30.720 than the car industry 00:53:27.839 --> 00:53:35.839 BMW's new connected car is pretty freaking cool y that's cool but do you 00:53:33.480 --> 00:53:40.119 think that apple with their expertise could probably do it better yeah and 00:53:37.920 --> 00:53:43.240 then hopefully Google will step in as they are and everybody's going to step 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 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 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 00:53:55.359 --> 00:54:04.400 about that but but something like a like a car that was just truly intelligent 00:54:00.799 --> 00:54:06.920 and upgradeable and app friendly I mean 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 00:54:13.000 --> 00:54:19.079 upgradeable because they they want to build in that incremental thing they can 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 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 00:54:26.520 --> 00:54:32.960 allowing additional functionality over time and not wanting to give people the 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 00:54:34.799 --> 00:54:39.920 the whole thing with the iPhone was I 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 00:54:41.559 --> 00:54:49.200 imagine that people were going to create this app for it that's true again though 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 00:54:51.319 --> 00:54:57.160 really installed on it already you plug your phone in and then it grabs apis 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 00:54:59.480 --> 00:55:04.599 actually one of the big things is as your phone updates that's all you need 00:55:02.960 --> 00:55:08.359 to update and then you'll still have more functionality yeah but then a 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 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 00:55:15.640 --> 00:55:22.319 Google car or something like that whereas Apple it'll be seamless you'll 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 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 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 00:55:34.760 --> 00:55:39.599 no but maybe and then when I said I home 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 00:55:43.920 --> 00:55:50.319 it will be is it will be a single piece 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 00:55:52.480 --> 00:55:58.200 fully integrated with Google's new thing we'll 00:55:56.520 --> 00:56:02.720 talk about later that could even work incredibly well and he was like no 00:56:01.039 --> 00:56:06.799 because people won't give up the personalization and the customizability 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 00:56:09.839 --> 00:56:17.520 with their phones before the iPhone it was stuff like the Motorola Razor in a 00:56:15.559 --> 00:56:22.280 variety of different colors Paris Hilton pink or whatever the what that doesn't 00:56:20.480 --> 00:56:25.720 because the layout of every home on the street would probably be pretty much the 00:56:23.640 --> 00:56:30.200 same you look at what Apple does bring one model Market because of well the the 00:56:28.240 --> 00:56:34.200 layout doesn't you Oh you mean like the entire building is a unit the entire 00:56:32.039 --> 00:56:39.039 building I think this is this is this is my crazy future prediction Apple will 00:56:36.599 --> 00:56:43.319 have the iHome which you order through your contractor or whatever it is and it 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 00:56:45.480 --> 00:56:50.880 it's going to have all kinds of really crazy cool technology so you know Nest 00:56:49.440 --> 00:56:55.000 eat your heart out because this is going to have controlled thermostat controlled 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 00:56:57.160 --> 00:57:02.480 upgrade anything about it you're going to be locked into that particular model 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 00:57:04.480 --> 00:57:13.240 being like IE apartment I I don't see them doing entire buildings especially 00:57:09.520 --> 00:57:15.280 apartment because like a house that's 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 00:57:16.960 --> 00:57:21.920 attachment like like you know how air conditioners sometimes if you have huge 00:57:20.440 --> 00:57:25.520 ones they sit outside your house yep could be like your iome module and then 00:57:24.000 --> 00:57:29.359 you could use something like the Google thing we're gonna talk about later I 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 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 00:57:36.160 --> 00:57:42.760 sits external or even internal of your house um control everything that's 00:57:40.559 --> 00:57:46.319 inside whether or not it is technically Apple everywhere I could see that 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 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 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 00:57:58.599 --> 00:58:04.200 see I think we'll hopefully be sitting somewhere else yeah hopefully a 00:58:02.599 --> 00:58:11.280 different hopefully a much better kind of crap my back is like so s 00:58:08.240 --> 00:58:13.039 terrible like oh this couch probably 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 00:58:17.319 --> 00:58:23.559 long it's so horrible okay all right so oh yeah one other possible collaboration 00:58:22.200 --> 00:58:28.559 would even just be something like building a a ginormous awesome fact for 00:58:26.559 --> 00:58:32.079 Batteries because that's one thing that Apple has really pushed forward is 00:58:30.200 --> 00:58:35.880 Battery Technology and that's something that Tesla desperately needs to be 00:58:33.880 --> 00:58:38.599 pushed forward so them getting together and working on that together could be 00:58:37.280 --> 00:58:42.400 extremely exciting for the future because really cool as you'll know if 00:58:40.319 --> 00:58:47.359 you watched my Brenton hydrogen reactor video not that long ago fuel cell just 00:58:44.559 --> 00:58:52.440 ain't quite there yet not so much uh should we do bit torr 00:58:50.680 --> 00:58:55.160 live sure or do you want to jump into that Google one real quick just so 00:58:53.799 --> 00:58:58.559 people can know what I'm talking about yeah sure let's do that 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 00:59:01.200 --> 00:59:06.599 Tango um which the idea is there there's 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 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 00:59:11.559 --> 00:59:17.319 just watch it guys we're gonna watch this video together all 00:59:17.680 --> 00:59:25.520 right my name is Johnny Lee and I work in the advanced technology and projects 00:59:22.280 --> 00:59:27.559 group at Google our small sorry I paused 00:59:25.520 --> 00:59:32.640 it I'm just adjusting the volume for you all team here based in California has 00:59:30.240 --> 00:59:36.880 been working with universities research Labs and Industrial Partners to harvest 00:59:34.920 --> 00:59:41.440 the last 10 years of research in robotics and computer vision to 00:59:38.839 --> 00:59:47.920 concentrate that technology into a very unique mobile phone we are physical 00:59:44.839 --> 00:59:50.000 beings that live in a 3D world yet 00:59:47.920 --> 00:59:54.799 mobile devices today assume that the physical world ends at the boundaries of 00:59:52.359 --> 01:00:00.039 the screen our goal is to give mobile devices a human scale understanding of 00:59:57.280 --> 01:00:03.039 space and motion is going to allow people to interact with their 01:00:01.280 --> 01:00:09.039 environment in just a fundamentally different way and we can prototype 01:00:06.079 --> 01:00:11.839 coule take us months or even years before because we didn't have this 01:00:10.480 --> 01:00:15.880 technology readily available that's what he sees what happens if you have all of 01:00:13.640 --> 01:00:20.200 these pieces in A phone how does that change what a phone 01:00:17.799 --> 01:00:22.920 is okay maybe we don't have to watch the created a 01:00:23.000 --> 01:00:28.359 prototype that gives you guys some idea of what's what's up 01:00:26.839 --> 01:00:32.960 um and then the rest of the video is talking about the excitement they have 01:00:30.039 --> 01:00:36.960 about development for this technology and the Prototype or well devkit devices 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 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 01:00:44.799 --> 01:00:50.200 unity okay outside of hours I will make 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 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 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 01:01:00.640 --> 01:01:05.319 little bit about what it is more uh they've been working with tons of 01:01:03.880 --> 01:01:09.400 universities research Labs and Industrial Partners spanning across nine 01:01:07.200 --> 01:01:12.480 countries around the world um they've been doing tons of different stuff and 01:01:11.079 --> 01:01:17.240 the goal of Project Tango is to give mobile devices a human scale 01:01:15.079 --> 01:01:21.000 understanding of space and motion a direct quote okay yeah I didn't know if 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 01:01:22.400 --> 01:01:28.359 from them um it's customized Hardware blah blah blah blah blah basically you 01:01:26.960 --> 01:01:31.799 can walk around with this thing and it can 3D map your environment this is 01:01:30.319 --> 01:01:39.119 supposed to be good because you can translate your position orientation and 01:01:34.880 --> 01:01:43.240 depth to apps um written in Java C C++ 01:01:39.119 --> 01:01:46.359 and unity Unity is a very good engine 01:01:43.240 --> 01:01:48.000 for doing stuff with oculus rift so 01:01:46.359 --> 01:01:52.640 they're looking into this as like you can help people that are blind you can 01:01:50.039 --> 01:01:56.760 help uh uh map environment so you could you could look at a different area in 01:01:54.440 --> 01:02:00.799 your house and then digitally put in Furniture which you can already do but 01:01:58.279 --> 01:02:05.400 not very well this you could do it very effectively um you you could find things 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 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 01:02:11.920 --> 01:02:18.839 on an Oculus and then have that whole area generated to be something that it 01:02:15.599 --> 01:02:20.480 isn't right now which is really cool or 01:02:18.839 --> 01:02:25.160 you could even do things like I mean a garage cleaning is something that you 01:02:22.279 --> 01:02:28.640 know homeowners like myself are hate and wish that something just do it for me 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 01:02:29.960 --> 01:02:34.760 optimal place to put everything why not 01:02:33.319 --> 01:02:38.000 someone could do that that's definitely doable there could be an app for that 01:02:36.319 --> 01:02:41.200 there's also scary implementations um how do you know this 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 01:02:43.319 --> 01:02:48.160 going to help people attract you blah blah blah blah blah yeah there's all the 01:02:46.400 --> 01:02:52.200 terrible terrible hiding behind something it could it could show people 01:02:50.680 --> 01:02:57.200 that you're hiding behind something like there's there's terrible stuff obviously 01:02:54.760 --> 01:03:05.680 like with everything we report ever nowadays I know but um Oculus yeah I can 01:03:03.160 --> 01:03:10.039 see this being super super cool for VR um because something we talked about 01:03:07.119 --> 01:03:15.520 multiple times in the past actually was um Oculus Rift laser tag essentially oh 01:03:13.160 --> 01:03:21.279 wouldn't that be amazing you map the whole house with your phone yeah then 01:03:18.319 --> 01:03:27.079 you throw on Oculus with like laptop backpacks and like oh yeah you could 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 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 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 01:03:39.839 --> 01:03:44.640 but like holy crap for gaming so cool 01:03:43.119 --> 01:03:50.160 this would be absolutely amazing augmented reality virtual reality all 01:03:47.920 --> 01:03:54.720 that kind of stuff that's like the the reality that's different from the other 01:03:51.640 --> 01:03:56.839 more different boring reality oh I 01:03:54.720 --> 01:04:01.039 really hope Paul and the guys at Oculus are just jumping all over this because 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 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 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 01:04:13.920 --> 01:04:20.440 like yeah although the the helping uh visually impaired is very cool and like 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 01:04:22.559 --> 01:04:27.760 it could translate information about the environment around them to audio 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 01:04:32.319 --> 01:04:37.079 crosswalk whatever like it could it could tell you what's going on around 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 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 01:04:43.240 --> 01:04:50.319 anyway extremely exciting totally not here yet 01:04:47.119 --> 01:04:52.880 but uh much hope for the future so 01:04:50.319 --> 01:05:00.240 awesome very good anyway bit torrent to launch a live 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 01:05:02.680 --> 01:05:08.799 actually been available for a while but much like anything that bit torrent does 01:05:07.039 --> 01:05:13.359 it's really not very exciting until there's a whole bunch of users making it 01:05:11.279 --> 01:05:18.640 awesome because it's all based on peer-to-peer sharing so the way it works 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 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 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 01:05:30.200 --> 01:05:35.359 have to stream that to everyone the way 01:05:33.520 --> 01:05:40.640 that this would work much like everything bit torrent does is it would 01:05:37.640 --> 01:05:42.440 stream to one user who would stream who 01:05:40.640 --> 01:05:46.799 would take a downstream and then maybe two or three upstreams and stream to 01:05:44.240 --> 01:05:51.319 more users and it would spread that way so that the bandwidth requirements are 01:05:48.960 --> 01:05:54.920 distributed and so that it's much easier to do things that are very challenging 01:05:53.200 --> 01:06:00.480 right now for services like Netflix and YouTube whether it's agreements with 01:05:57.000 --> 01:06:03.960 isps or just plain simple network 01:06:00.480 --> 01:06:07.240 capacity and that is get the content 01:06:03.960 --> 01:06:09.440 closer to the person who wants it and uh 01:06:07.240 --> 01:06:15.920 Netflix has offered to go as far as installing their own Hardware in uh 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 01:06:17.319 --> 01:06:23.240 want the content so you're not just wasting bandwidth you know having it 01:06:21.640 --> 01:06:27.279 having the data travel further than it has to well what this would do is it 01:06:25.359 --> 01:06:31.640 would not only decrease the bandwidth cost for whoever's hosting the content 01:06:29.279 --> 01:06:36.039 So speaking of the new YouTube layout if for whatever reason lonus Media Group 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 01:06:37.400 --> 01:06:45.440 anymore we want to stream our videos ourselves it would dramatically reduce 01:06:42.680 --> 01:06:50.680 the startup bandwidth cost and our Reliance on sponsors to pay for 01:06:48.400 --> 01:06:55.799 it but then you guys would share the burden yeah which is really really cool 01:06:53.760 --> 01:07:00.119 and it's exciting for smaller people like honestly we could probably handle 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 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 01:07:06.160 --> 01:07:15.200 guys would do that but for someone really small this this could save their 01:07:12.720 --> 01:07:17.920 butt and this like some something we talked about in the better than Bieber 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 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 01:07:25.559 --> 01:07:32.240 like stream video a mixture of this and Hotspot Shield could really help you if 01:07:29.440 --> 01:07:37.680 say all you had was cellular data right cuz one upst stream just pushing on one 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 01:07:39.039 --> 01:07:44.400 really nice internet connection or or or Europe or whatever that can push out to 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 01:07:47.880 --> 01:07:53.119 think sometime this year was the uh the 01:07:51.000 --> 01:07:58.520 timeline given yeah will be released in Alpha and I mean they are doing so much 01:07:56.000 --> 01:08:03.680 amazing stuff right now speaking of being a Pioneer and trying to shake a 01:08:00.920 --> 01:08:08.920 negative stigma or trying to shake the stigma of being associated with piracy 01:08:06.720 --> 01:08:16.120 and with you know law breaking bit torrent holy crap these guys are on fire 01:08:12.279 --> 01:08:17.960 between bit torren syn this their chat 01:08:16.120 --> 01:08:20.880 application speaking of free Alternatives that could give something 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 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 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 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 01:08:34.000 --> 01:08:40.960 how bit Tor was like whoa whoa whoa stop attributing us with piracy yeah and we 01:08:37.839 --> 01:08:43.759 were both like yeah we laughed yeah we 01:08:40.960 --> 01:08:49.560 were wrong yep well we're wrong now I deserve 01:08:45.480 --> 01:08:52.920 that moving on um yeah I think that's 01:08:49.560 --> 01:08:56.960 pretty much it last videos would start 01:08:52.920 --> 01:08:59.759 slow yeah all good stuff yep all right 01:08:56.960 --> 01:09:02.719 so watching movies on the Oculus could be a thing I can think of certain kinds 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 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 01:09:11.319 --> 01:09:19.120 that anyway so this is an article from new 01:09:14.520 --> 01:09:22.239 film school oh man so so zero point uh 01:09:19.120 --> 01:09:24.159 is a project by condition one and is 01:09:22.239 --> 01:09:28.120 actually about the Oculus Rift device and it will be viewable on the Oculus 01:09:25.880 --> 01:09:33.159 drift device which is fantastic um they've also made things earlier that me 01:09:30.239 --> 01:09:40.199 let iPad users move through footage with 120 180 Dee field of vision sorry about 01:09:40.199 --> 01:09:48.920 that I muted that before I started oh 01:09:43.960 --> 01:09:51.159 wow the ad you cannot M the ad that's 01:09:48.920 --> 01:09:56.280 brutal anyway sorry go ahead uh where was I yeah so they 01:09:54.239 --> 01:09:58.679 they're they make this kind stuff and they're going to continue making this 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 01:10:00.440 --> 01:10:06.719 interactive trailer is that where you were you trailer so apparently the 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 01:10:09.000 --> 01:10:15.960 you want to find it it's condition one.com zero whatever just Google it um 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 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 01:10:21.880 --> 01:10:29.600 super cool I mean I don't necessarily see the relevance for something like um 01:10:27.199 --> 01:10:35.159 for something like a fiction like I think being able to walk around in the 01:10:32.199 --> 01:10:38.600 hobbit 2 would have actually even further removed any believability from 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 01:10:41.920 --> 01:10:49.440 sporting event oh yeah super cool okay 01:10:45.080 --> 01:10:51.080 so picture this instead of cameras just 01:10:49.440 --> 01:10:56.280 pointing at the ice and you have those viewpoints they have 3D modeling cameras 01:10:54.560 --> 01:11:00.880 so you have them all over the place to the point where you could either attend 01:10:58.120 --> 01:11:04.880 the game in person or you could buy a virtual ticket because they're not going 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 01:11:07.320 --> 01:11:12.880 ice epic of a hockey game right think about that Imagine The View modes too 01:11:11.840 --> 01:11:16.920 you know how when you're in a game you can like select different view modes 01:11:15.080 --> 01:11:19.960 free view or like player attached imagine you could just be attached on 01:11:18.400 --> 01:11:25.800 like the head position of one of the players so if you could just like GoPro 01:11:22.719 --> 01:11:28.800 on to any player on the ice if like what 01:11:25.800 --> 01:11:31.440 is it like to play as uh an NFL 01:11:28.800 --> 01:11:34.520 quarterback for a day yeah like you just you buy your ticket which would probably 01:11:32.880 --> 01:11:40.360 be cheaper than an in-person ticket and probably a way cooler experience you 01:11:36.480 --> 01:11:41.800 strap on your Oculus and holy crap we 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 01:11:45.719 --> 01:11:52.040 things we need to get those but completely the opposite it needs to be 01:11:49.760 --> 01:11:57.600 like sensory overload chamber where you can wear some type of VR technology and 01:11:54.800 --> 01:12:01.239 then have the this thing inject smells why would we want this and inject like 01:11:59.120 --> 01:12:04.760 temperatures so you could like feel like you are somewhere like if you're running 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 01:12:08.159 --> 01:12:13.880 itell Sate wind oh god um like like uh I 01:12:12.400 --> 01:12:17.400 think it was at Disneyland they have that one where you go over an orange 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 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 01:12:24.560 --> 01:12:29.880 like still if they can get that experience so you actually feel like 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 01:12:31.719 --> 01:12:38.480 mean one of the uses they're talking about is in a documentary type films so 01:12:36.440 --> 01:12:43.280 you could see from different perspectives I mean really to 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 01:12:45.280 --> 01:12:51.120 you can do things like pan from one thing to another so like the scene is 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 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 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 01:13:02.440 --> 01:13:07.440 coming is when you can use multiple 01:13:05.719 --> 01:13:13.080 cameras to capture a much larger scene and then recreate it as a virtual event 01:13:09.360 --> 01:13:15.000 I mean imagine this if uh something like 01:13:13.080 --> 01:13:18.920 what's going on in Ukraine right now if everyone had their cell phones out and 01:13:17.280 --> 01:13:24.159 was collecting footage which is already going on anyway if you could just 01:13:21.080 --> 01:13:27.320 virtually move around in this space if 01:13:24.159 --> 01:13:30.040 you could recreate something like a riot 01:13:27.320 --> 01:13:36.040 or event I mean okay forget forget Ukraine for a second okay so when Canada 01:13:32.280 --> 01:13:38.159 loses hockey games Vancouver riots so if 01:13:36.040 --> 01:13:42.679 the police could take all that cell phone footage Stitch it together and go 01:13:40.719 --> 01:13:46.199 walk through it and find out who freaking started it they're still 01:13:44.480 --> 01:13:51.400 persecuting people for that eh yeah they just Prosecuting 01:13:49.159 --> 01:13:57.120 sorry uh they they just pulled in I think three more people so imagine that 01:13:54.000 --> 01:13:59.360 imagine law en enforcement with this I 01:13:57.120 --> 01:14:04.000 mean yeah but then imagine all the negative things yeah it's like with 01:14:02.280 --> 01:14:11.760 cameras everywhere everything we report on now this is super cool and horribly 01:14:08.480 --> 01:14:13.520 terrible I don't know what else to say 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 01:14:16.000 --> 01:14:21.920 uh that were very like vocal heavy there's a lot of 01:14:20.239 --> 01:14:29.159 talking yeah like that one good scene in The Hobbit stop stop stop okay should 01:14:27.840 --> 01:14:33.239 have seen him the day after he watched the movie 01:14:30.960 --> 01:14:36.360 stop because like if if you could feel like you're partaking in the 01:14:34.280 --> 01:14:42.360 conversation just as a silent member of the conversation that would be really 01:14:37.600 --> 01:14:43.960 cool um anyways moving on to what more 01:14:42.360 --> 01:14:50.239 Oculus mhm like you can tell who works on the 01:14:46.800 --> 01:14:53.199 dock he so they are suspending sales of 01:14:50.239 --> 01:14:58.520 the rift developer kit but will not confirm if there is to be a new 01:14:55.520 --> 01:15:00.199 developer kit available soon so not NE 01:14:58.520 --> 01:15:02.880 they're not necessarily suspending sales they're just not Distributing anymore so 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 01:15:05.239 --> 01:15:12.440 them in that region anymore um yay um there there's a whole bunch of 01:15:10.760 --> 01:15:16.679 information coming out about what could possibly be in DK2 development kit 2 and 01:15:15.199 --> 01:15:20.880 a lot of people are wondering if it's going to be a slightly further version 01:15:18.520 --> 01:15:25.880 than Crystal Cove um because there has been people recently tweeting out saying 01:15:23.840 --> 01:15:29.400 that they've gone to Oculus headquarters and have seen something that's just 01:15:27.239 --> 01:15:31.360 absolutely blown them off their feet and they're they're not allowed talking 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 01:15:33.520 --> 01:15:42.600 now they're stopping production holy crap I want DK2 now 01:15:39.080 --> 01:15:44.880 development kit 2 now um I'm I'm super 01:15:42.600 --> 01:15:51.120 incredibly stoked there's also another thing um Oculus has filed for rifton the 01:15:49.320 --> 01:15:57.280 trademark for rifton so there's probably going to be some sort of um conference 01:15:54.199 --> 01:16:00.000 VR conference or convention or something 01:15:57.280 --> 01:16:04.400 like that who knows I'd imagine that um it'd be the least expensive conference 01:16:02.000 --> 01:16:04.400 ever to 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 01:16:10.719 --> 01:16:16.880 it in that form especially with did you see those little like cameras on wheels 01:16:14.679 --> 01:16:23.040 that were going around CES yeah yeah like if they had those but 360 degree 01:16:18.920 --> 01:16:25.120 cameras fantastic yeah that'd be epic 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 01:16:28.800 --> 01:16:34.880 pretty sure a Kit's coming although that could just be hopeful wishing I'm not 01:16:32.400 --> 01:16:41.199 entirely sure speaking of of Wishful hopeful things what if there was an app 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 01:16:43.960 --> 01:16:52.480 this is on popular mechanics.com this is not on like the onion 01:16:48.679 --> 01:16:54.120 okay so there's a whole spiel about how 01:16:52.480 --> 01:16:56.480 baseball players and such and such they have very little time to something 01:16:55.480 --> 01:17:03.239 something anyway don't worry too much about that what this app does is it 01:16:59.639 --> 01:17:05.800 actually trains the brain not the eyes 01:17:03.239 --> 01:17:09.639 to interpret what the eyes are seeing better so we're going to go ahead and 01:17:08.360 --> 01:17:15.199 this time I'm going to be ready to mute the PC if something disastrous happens 01:17:11.800 --> 01:17:18.600 there you go yes good work go away 01:17:15.199 --> 01:17:20.400 amazing in motion nobody cares okay well 01:17:18.600 --> 01:17:25.280 whatever anyway that's that's coming in a moment not mutable before so what it 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 01:17:29.000 --> 01:17:34.080 shapes for a period of time that I 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 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 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 01:17:43.199 --> 01:17:49.360 the link in the twitch chat and the idea is that by training your brain to 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 01:17:51.920 --> 01:18:00.320 recognize these things it will allow you to achieve significantly better vision 01:17:56.639 --> 01:18:01.719 and the article claims forget about 2020 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 01:18:06.600 --> 01:18:14.440 ft what most people would see from 01:18:10.320 --> 01:18:17.159 7t which is bananas absolutely bananas 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 01:18:19.840 --> 01:18:25.040 back next week and we can do a a Twitter 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 01:18:28.159 --> 01:18:33.679 that's it it was just something cool that I wanted to talk about which I 01:18:31.880 --> 01:18:37.800 guess is this entire show speaking of something not cool that 01:18:36.320 --> 01:18:44.400 we're going to talk about Irrational Games uh is closing their doors sort of 01:18:42.600 --> 01:18:49.560 as you knew them I think he's keeping about 15 members he's keeping some 01:18:46.639 --> 01:18:52.480 employees um and they're moving and they're they're they're supporting and 01:18:51.159 --> 01:18:56.920 helping the employees that they're not keeping a lot they're even hosting job 01:18:55.080 --> 01:19:01.760 fairs where people from other companies can come to their offices and meet the 01:18:59.400 --> 01:19:05.000 people that they're not keeping and possibly hire them I know Bethesda 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 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 01:19:11.239 --> 01:19:16.679 too worried if I was an employee at rational games they're not pulling an EA 01:19:14.719 --> 01:19:21.000 they're actually trying to like help their employees out that they're not 01:19:18.159 --> 01:19:28.239 keeping um and they're they're giving the IP of Bioshock to 2K which makes 01:19:23.960 --> 01:19:30.440 sense yep um and yeah he's moving on 01:19:28.239 --> 01:19:34.520 he's trying to do a more entrepreneurial kind of endeavor at take two he was 01:19:32.760 --> 01:19:38.719 going to go fully independent but he kind of said uh this sorry this is Kevin 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 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 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 01:19:48.199 --> 01:19:55.080 such a ginormous you know company working on such a ginormous project 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 01:19:57.800 --> 01:20:03.960 want to do something smaller and take two basically said look let us support 01:20:01.600 --> 01:20:08.120 you within our ecosystem so he's still going to stay there but Irrational Games 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 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 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 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 01:20:24.840 --> 01:20:30.760 build something half as memorable as Bioshock and I'm sure considering it's 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 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 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 01:20:42.560 --> 01:20:48.840 but then BioShock Infinite was freaking amazing um I don't know why the whole 01:20:46.520 --> 01:20:53.600 internet like flipped when it became Awards time on BHO infinite everyone 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 01:20:55.199 --> 01:21:01.239 it still one things last thing is the gaming The Gaming Community is very 01:20:58.800 --> 01:21:04.360 fickle yeah the attention span is very short and you forget how good things 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 01:21:07.520 --> 01:21:14.080 even ties in something that reminded me um of the exact thing that happened with 01:21:11.560 --> 01:21:17.520 BioShock Infinite was um the stares in the next great Starship thing y it 01:21:15.840 --> 01:21:21.080 became the Wild Card round so everyone was voting for what one they thought was 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 01:21:23.800 --> 01:21:29.760 like a m M percentage of the votes were for something that was from the most 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 01:21:31.520 --> 01:21:36.760 names of teams no pictures of the gun nothing like that so even when I was 01:21:35.120 --> 01:21:40.360 looking through it trying to be super objective I was like I don't remember 01:21:39.040 --> 01:21:45.239 two-thirds of these because they're an old episodes like what the heck was that 01:21:43.159 --> 01:21:48.600 so I don't know that's it the internet forgets everyone forgets it makes sense 01:21:47.400 --> 01:21:55.120 the actually I was having this conversation with um with Ed today edel 01:21:52.199 --> 01:22:00.199 our editor anyway um we were Mar at some classic memes that a lot of the 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 01:22:02.719 --> 01:22:08.560 Earth replaced by such Doge so coin 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 01:22:10.760 --> 01:22:16.440 completely disappear and um and like 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 01:22:18.960 --> 01:22:25.639 in the flow like everything else is um speaking oh yeah this is a topic 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 01:22:28.080 --> 01:22:35.639 talked about the possibility of more Final Fantasy development on the PC cool 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 01:22:38.159 --> 01:22:44.800 lot of PlayStation ones and a fair number of PlayStation 01:22:41.679 --> 01:22:46.800 2s um you know I I think a lot of PC 01:22:44.800 --> 01:22:51.400 people would have loved to have I mean they've really expanded the platforms 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 01:22:53.239 --> 01:23:01.120 the remakes on Android are probably the most notable ones I actually did re one 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 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 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 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 01:23:17.320 --> 01:23:22.360 good games yeah uh tying into that this 01:23:20.560 --> 01:23:27.239 isn't even in the dock but apparently the the source and everything for Thief 01:23:24.840 --> 01:23:30.560 was released oh yeah it was leaked uh there's there's ending of the game 01:23:28.760 --> 01:23:36.920 videos on YouTube already I think someone was streaming the game on Twitch 01:23:33.360 --> 01:23:39.000 like it's like leaked like out there not 01:23:36.920 --> 01:23:45.440 a little bit um people have mapped out certain levels and people are pissed 01:23:42.080 --> 01:23:47.440 really like not stoked at all especially 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 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 01:23:54.120 --> 01:23:59.600 complaining in because apparently it's just way too easy and apparently someone 01:23:57.920 --> 01:24:05.880 has already beat it from beginning to end without cheating and I think it was 01:24:01.280 --> 01:24:08.120 like 6 hours wow so yeah one thing that 01:24:05.880 --> 01:24:12.880 they do have is there's like uh voluntary difficulty scaling yeah so you 01:24:10.679 --> 01:24:16.600 can put in like handicaps essentially like one of them is if you're ever 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 01:24:20.199 --> 01:24:27.800 you you get more points okay sure so yeah whoever played a game for points 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 01:24:29.840 --> 01:24:36.480 people I know some people are going to try to get every bandage in Super Meat 01:24:33.480 --> 01:24:38.040 Boy and that's cool I respect that but 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 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 01:24:44.000 --> 01:24:49.760 something that can get me to continue playing some some sort of goal yeah like 01:24:48.159 --> 01:24:54.400 like with the idea with Thief when I heard about those additional difficulty 01:24:51.400 --> 01:24:56.880 things was oh cool I really liked the 01:24:54.400 --> 01:25:02.159 thief games that's like why I like certain game types now are because it 01:24:58.760 --> 01:25:03.480 reminds me of thief right um so when I 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 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 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 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 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 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 01:25:24.840 --> 01:25:30.360 if you don't if you change the gam playay a lot then the hardcores who 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 01:25:32.000 --> 01:25:37.199 it enough then you're not innovating and 01:25:35.119 --> 01:25:42.080 it's it'll be another BioShock 2 what was the complaint about BioShock 2 well 01:25:39.639 --> 01:25:45.679 it was just that they copy pasted how much how much do we complain about copy 01:25:43.920 --> 01:25:49.159 pasting and then how much do we complain when someone actually innovates and my 01:25:47.639 --> 01:25:53.600 point about Final Fantasy I'm going to come back to that for a minute because 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 01:25:56.880 --> 01:26:03.639 not the same thing you do not have to 01:26:00.360 --> 01:26:06.080 make a change to the combat system at 01:26:03.639 --> 01:26:10.520 all you could use a combat system from any decent Final Fantasy game whether 01:26:08.080 --> 01:26:14.440 it's uh five six 79 um I'm just trying to think of other 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 01:26:18.600 --> 01:26:27.280 halfway decent story with a decent length and that's the kind of gameplay 01:26:23.719 --> 01:26:29.199 it is who plays Final Fantasy for the 01:26:27.280 --> 01:26:32.320 combat that's that's one thing with Thief though that people have been 01:26:30.360 --> 01:26:35.679 complaining about is apparently you can run through the game like a Rambo and 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 01:26:37.520 --> 01:26:42.520 play it early have been saying it's incredibly difficult to do combat but 01:26:41.199 --> 01:26:47.880 then apparently the guy that ran through it in like six hours just like killed 01:26:45.440 --> 01:26:51.920 everyone and it was like yeah yeah you just shoot everybody and then and then 01:26:50.119 --> 01:26:54.920 pick up all the things which is like not how Thief is supposed to be played 01:26:53.760 --> 01:26:58.360 you're supposed to to not be the greatest combatant you're supposed to 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 01:27:00.480 --> 01:27:03.840 I don't know that doesn't make any 01:27:07.840 --> 01:27:13.159 sense no I don't know I'm I'm still uh I 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 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 01:27:20.920 --> 01:27:31.119 and it turned out to be awesome okay so moving on uh GTX 750 Ti 01:27:26.880 --> 01:27:34.199 NVIDIA's most efficient GPU yet the 01:27:31.119 --> 01:27:36.040 article that I will refer to is our own 01:27:34.199 --> 01:27:41.920 video because this is something we covered it's funny on W show we tend not 01:27:38.920 --> 01:27:43.840 to cover anything that we covered well 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 01:27:45.840 --> 01:27:51.920 assuming a lot that's assuming that people want to watch our YouTube videos 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 01:27:54.280 --> 01:28:02.000 this I'm you know what why don't you just hate some 01:27:58.159 --> 01:28:03.679 more straw pole. y yep I'm going to 01:28:02.000 --> 01:28:10.040 create a new straw pole do you oh okay here what for what 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 01:28:12.320 --> 01:28:22.280 forum for we have a poll on our own Forum okay LTT plus when plus Tech 01:28:18.119 --> 01:28:24.639 quickie okay uh LTT plus 01:28:22.280 --> 01:28:30.560 when LT only and then when only what what are 01:28:28.800 --> 01:28:36.760 some of the other options anyone watching this show must watch t and Tech 01:28:33.600 --> 01:28:37.960 cookie but well they watch when so there 01:28:36.760 --> 01:28:43.040 are already options in here that don't really make any sense yeah never mind um 01:28:40.840 --> 01:28:46.280 well whatever TQ only find so I'm talking like what do you actually follow 01:28:44.520 --> 01:28:51.119 what do you regularly watch so if this is the only time you've ever watched The 01:28:47.520 --> 01:28:52.840 W show Maybe not maybe don't include W 01:28:51.119 --> 01:28:56.000 but if it's like a part of your thing to watch The W show all the time then 01:28:54.440 --> 01:29:03.840 include it then yeah we're curious we want to know like what you guys are actually watching here so to be clear LT 01:29:00.719 --> 01:29:05.480 is Linus techip YouTube channel TQ is 01:29:03.840 --> 01:29:10.960 the Techquickie YouTube channel my secondary Channel and then when is this 01:29:08.000 --> 01:29:16.360 particular show because there is a large subset of our viewers and I know this 01:29:12.920 --> 01:29:18.600 already that do not watch W show even 01:29:16.360 --> 01:29:24.159 though they're regular viewers like I people like six months in to Luke being 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 01:29:27.600 --> 01:29:32.480 crap it's slick and like I'm not I'm not like I'm 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 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 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 01:29:42.360 --> 01:29:48.440 God his name is Luke Luke whatever and I'm just like 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 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 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 01:29:58.400 --> 01:30:04.080 not a whole lot to say very competitively positioned very power 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 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 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 01:30:17.560 --> 01:30:24.560 of the 650 TI yeah that little tiny PCB 01:30:21.560 --> 01:30:28.679 but then when I needed a car C with an 01:30:24.560 --> 01:30:32.440 h264 decoder on it for my media 01:30:28.679 --> 01:30:32.440 PC what did I have to 01:30:32.480 --> 01:30:38.679 use I had to find that short PCB card to 01:30:35.719 --> 01:30:43.639 install an alen Lee PC Q7 still funny it's still funny it still looks 01:30:40.880 --> 01:30:46.679 ridiculous but there is a market for a card that is very power efficient 01:30:45.239 --> 01:30:50.960 doesn't require an external power connector see no power connector and is 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 01:30:54.080 --> 01:31:01.159 shines as we talked about earlier it shines greatly if you're looking for 01:30:57.639 --> 01:31:03.960 very power efficient mining now all the 01:31:01.159 --> 01:31:08.480 charts that people are showing is um like very heavily based on power 01:31:06.280 --> 01:31:13.800 efficiency it's not the craziest minor out there yeah but for how much power it 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 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 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 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 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 01:31:33.800 --> 01:31:39.600 can get that down and still be making a fair amount then that's really good 01:31:38.000 --> 01:31:44.520 because you have a if you have to get that that raw profit 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 01:31:45.960 --> 01:31:51.760 more topics you wanted to cover uh there's like random things like uh the 01:31:49.920 --> 01:31:54.400 power laes possibly coming in 2015 there's nothing really else to say about 01:31:53.000 --> 01:31:57.840 that though that's fine um power laces from Back to the Future 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 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 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 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 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 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 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 01:32:24.199 --> 01:32:30.320 crazy busy but yeah we definitely want them as a guest so anyway these 01:32:27.480 --> 01:32:33.840 fictional sneakers will be uh will be coming so power power laes yeah power 01:32:32.560 --> 01:32:37.880 laces they're not going to be on shoes that look like this well they they 01:32:35.600 --> 01:32:40.600 should be they totally should be I would definitely get some of those I mean they 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 01:32:44.239 --> 01:32:49.320 2011 y of 1500 of these shoes but I 01:32:48.119 --> 01:32:53.920 would love to see them actually bring the would you wear them yeah you would 01:32:51.679 --> 01:32:57.080 wear them yeah just because the back is the future 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 01:33:00.600 --> 01:33:08.000 probably but like because it's back to the future and because certain nerdy 01:33:05.000 --> 01:33:11.440 people would be like yeah then yeah I'd 01:33:08.000 --> 01:33:13.920 do that so nerd street cred is worth 01:33:11.440 --> 01:33:17.440 looking like a dumbass to other people yeah 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 01:33:19.400 --> 01:33:26.679 has nerd street cred y like that video game high school shirt that you 01:33:23.000 --> 01:33:31.119 apparently never take off sweater yeah 01:33:26.679 --> 01:33:33.480 but yeah all right so let's go to our 01:33:31.119 --> 01:33:39.880 poll what do you guys watch 70% of you apparently will watch 01:33:37.400 --> 01:33:43.520 any crappy thing that we make sweet so that new channel yeah we should totally 01:33:41.520 --> 01:33:49.239 make new channels like Linus stormtrooper armor just doing 01:33:46.480 --> 01:33:54.760 things entirely new channel for this just L and Stor trooper armor takes out 01:33:51.920 --> 01:34:02.320 the garbage reality TV has reached a new 01:33:58.040 --> 01:34:03.719 low thrilling it was raining this time D 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 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 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 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 01:34:22.719 --> 01:34:29.000 Tech or and when gets you better do this okay so lonus 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 01:34:31.960 --> 01:34:37.639 lot higher than I expected uh lineus Tech tips and Techquickie no W show is 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 01:34:40.040 --> 01:34:45.719 possibly new to it um Linus Tech tips only is only about 1% again that's 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 01:34:51.320 --> 01:34:58.360 quickie is about 1% as well with only about nine votes so not that many people 01:34:56.320 --> 01:35:01.960 are coming from only Techquickie and now watching The W show but there is 01:34:59.920 --> 01:35:08.080 some of them and the mass majority of people watch just basically everything 01:35:04.880 --> 01:35:10.159 cool thank you guys yeah I think that's 01:35:08.080 --> 01:35:13.840 actually about it for the show uh we should
