are we live oh oh great I was I was looking at
no I was looking at the wrong thing I was like there's no frames encoded yet
oh we couldn't be live yet no but there are I was looking at viewers oh there
are no viewers yet well also that thing is like either broken or hella delayed
yeah no no no I know that it just mean I was just I was seeing that zero value
cuz usually there's that little delay before the frames start encoding and I'm
like if I if I say welcome to the W show
then it's going to come across to the W show like they're not going to hear the
the beginning of it but instead I waited too long and I made it awkward why were
we late this time why were we late this time um well we were late this okay not
actually why we were but what did what did you do today okay it's not actually
why we're Le for the last three hour two
and a half about two and a half hours I have been overhauling the WAN Show setup
I have reinstalled the audio compressor that we have used since way a long time
ago at the wait what we can just no no it's it's not it's not quite tweaked yet
yeah but it's it's a lot better so I have reinstalled the audio compressor I
have switched to an XLR microphone um we
do not have a mount for this one yet so I have installed this this absolute here
I'll give you guys a look at it yeah this absolutely gorgeous shock mount
yeah piece of foam um what else did I do
I I'm sure I did other things we got platform swap there was some good things
done in terms of the audio setup I tried some different capture cards um mostly I
was playing around with audio so uh there you go people are like the
microphone's terrible I know for a fact it isn't and that's another thing I did
today is I actually listened to the stream and tested it so screw you guys
yep so get wrecked Get Wrecked dogs screw of relatively small portion of you
guys and the rest of you are great yeah the rest of you are awesome but it's
just thanks for watching it's the all right so we've got a great show
for you guys today yeah um there is it's
official a modular
Smartwatch kind of kind of there isn't one but there might be one there could
be one it could be one the PlayStation 4
has been revealed to be backwards compatible with PlayStation 2 games but
there's more to the story than that AMD could could be profitable in two years
could could could good and also Samsung
is making a smart flip phone and finally
my fingernails could all fall off right
now but they didn't but they didn't but they could have but they could have that
was a potential
SP and I remembered oh I put the intro
back today all right so why don't we just kind of get the show get the show
started this week with a thing that's compl completely not on the schedule at
all that sounds about right that's usually what we do that is usually what
we do okay okay so I had a lot of people
calling [ __ ] on this uh on this post
that I made on Instagram where I put a
uh I put a a GTX there's a lot of people declaring this to be video card X Y or Z
when actually almost no one got it right it is a GTX 980 okay so I put a GT TX
980 on this setup and I declared it to
be a cheap 8 core gaming setup so this
video is actually coming out on
uh I want to say Monday morning Sunday
night so midnight Pacific on Sunday it's pretty freaking sick and no no lies
There Is No Nonsense I am not pulling your guys legs eight Intel processing
cores 16 gigs of RAM and a motherboard
we're talking under $150 us we're
talking with a gtx980 and yes I
understand that a gtx980 is expensive it's not the point the point of putting
the 980 in there was demonstrating that this gaming platform is not uh a
substantial bottleneck even for a high-end graphics card okay so we're
talking like n oh no no that was the comparison one we're talking about 75
FPS in Battlefront okay Star Wars
Battlefront 75 FPS what settings butter smooth ultimate
boom or Ultra or whatever they call whatever the top one is the highest tier
preset 1080p 75
FPS yeah that's right so stay tuned for that that's
going to be freaking awesome um I'm just trying to think if there's any other
internal like LMG stuff we've had going on this week it's been kind of a crazy
week but I don't know why well we can't no that was last week we can't
talk about that but that was last week this week top secret I did a lot of
prepping prepping yeah we prepared this week we prepared actually um I've been
getting a lot of help I did that thing but I can't oh yeah more security stuff
so sort of uh we we actually added a new
member um yep so we we have like uh like
a a new sort of sort of like maintenance maintenance guy um but I'm going to wait
till after his probation period in order to you know in procedure whatever
standard operating procedure introduce him oh yeah we added another new member
that happened this week so it's official
um my wife will be joining us here at lonus Media Group uh starting in the new
year to be fair she has basically
already done enough work to be an employee and like kind of really is
already she's just going to like physically be in the office now which is
way better and she won't have to do her other job anymore which is also also way
better so I and you know it's it's really funny one of the things that she
stressed out about was that the and okay
first I mean she's sometimes emotions
you know take precedent over rational
thought she doesn't watch she she is but
like she's yeah she still she still has
twox chromosomes okay so I'm just saying I went to the HR in
Space Center yes on my birthday and met many incredibly intelligent nothing to
do with intelligence my wife is incredibly intelligent rational people
and she's very rational okay but that doesn't mean that sometimes she doesn't
well okay anyway the point is her first concern was that LMG employees would
feel like I was only hiring her because
nepotism and she's my wife
okay and I was like my dear I love you
dearly but that is the single most ridiculous thing you've ever said to
me so stop I think that might like she
got like the second dopest office in the whole thing there's like probably part
of it has to do with that at least a small degree yeah like the reason why
she's coming no yeah no or like even
Even If part of it is that she earned her way through other things she even
needs the privacy in the office because is the only one of us that actually does
like accounting and stuff yeah so some of the things that I
do should probably not be done that's true too okay but like yeah but anyway
much more so next so the next thing was
everyone's like lonus is so sexist it's like okay okay okay I'm not going to get
I'm not going to get too deep into this because quite frankly who could handle
that well apparently oh okay
anyway I'm not I'm not gonna get I'm not going to get too deep into this but men
and women are different they're not the same they're
different and that's okay all right so anyway the next thing she was worried
about was that the viewers would think
that the only reason she was involved was cuz she was like the boss's wife and
I was like no I'm going to clear that up I'm going to make sure they know so I'm
addressing it on W show once and for all Ivonne has been an integral part of lus
Media Group since before its incorporation date she helped me start
the company from like day negative you
know like 90 when I was working on this for like months before we actually
kicked off yeah and she has been deeply involved not just in like you know
creating people's paychecks and depositing things in the bank and all
those things that she does to help everything run smoothly here core decisions on Direction and stuff like
that but she has also been deeply involved in many core decisions
involving HR involving our hiring involving our our our our content
involving our overall strategy involving the way that we address things publicly
like our PR um so she's very much a part of what we do and uh and she's approved
and like if if people are worried about content control and stuff she's approved
stuff that was like we were pretty unsure about it yeah
and she was like yeah I mean you can probably do it we ran we ran how to hide
your porn after uh pastor we we had like a little mini conference call thing yep
and she was like it's sketchy but yeah and we were
like okay all right well I think I I think I have uh that's great Ivon of the
Yukon uh she hates that reference so
what I would recommend is whenever she shows up in a Channel Super Fun or
whatever else because she thinks she's not going to be in videos but I straight
up told her that's not going to happen or is going to happen whatever the part
where she is going to be in videos is that that that will happen U so make
sure you leave some comments about Ivon of the Yukon under the video she'll love
that well mostly I'll love teasing her about that and then you know it'll be
good it'll be good yeah um got people asking if she'll be hosting anything no
I don't think so I doubt that not really her stick I mean she's she's actually I
expect she'd probably be on Channel Super Fun yeah yeah I'd expect her to
show up on super fun like like we'll we'll definitely pull some kind of
actually we have to haze her when she first starts like we have to pull some
kind of like initiation prank on her what in like her first week oh like
Channel Super Fun style person yeah okay I was like what are you talking about no
no no we should get tied to a poll for a day cuz we're a frat
party no that's why I'm like what are you talking not at work
that that's not even what I meant this
time that's not what I meant anyways yeah no that sounds good we have to
think of something cool though yeah yeah we'll have we'll have to come up with something cool like like there's the
classics there's like putting the noise maker above the ceiling tile and the
office or whatever but but I want to come up I want to come up with something
a little bit a little bit better than that I think I think we can I think we
can do that all right so um I think that's pretty much it for like the lonus
Media Group uh catchup so why don't we jump right into NVIDIA unveiling their
Pascal architecture somewhat so kind of
uh yeah somewhat somewhat sort of so at the Japanese edition of NVIDIA GTC the
GPU technology conference they've unveiled some details about their 2016
Graphics architecture code name oh the name of this G is the Afterparty I'm
sorry oh really I think so oh derp
that's what it shows on M oh uh well that's not right the WAN
show uh Tech and whoops gaming talk
Fridays at 1630 Pacific is there we go
all right we fixed that okay so basically there's I mean there's not a
whole lot here that we didn't kind of see coming um up to 16 gab of hbm memory
is is what it's going to be launching with but it can support up to 32 yes um
so we're talking one terabyte per second in bandwidth although uh and this will
be hbm2 by the way so NVIDIA apparently
just kind of went yep we're going to sit this first generation we're going to
wait until there's a die shrink and then we are going to pack as many more
transistors as we can into our GPU and we're going to go hbm at the same time
and deliver hopefully something really
really groundbreaking um it'll be the
GPU Market kind of needs to be completely honest because with VR around
the corner they're going to be really far behind and it has been we have been
stuck at the same manufacturing process node for so long long it's a problem
actually right now it's been awful like they have had to do so many crazy tricks
both NVIDIA and AMD have been like
tricking all over the or okay that came across wrong that um
well they've been clever chip design why don't we call it that um but they have
also revealed that Pascal will be available in multi-GPU packaging Envy
link is going to enable up to 80 Gigabyte per second communication
um they're going to they're going to have higher performance through the use
of the uh oh man why am I having trouble talking today there's hbm2 will help
from performance there's also a manufacturing no strength that he's talking about 16 nanometer finfet
process which is still going to be done by
tsmc um yeah yeah and we're expecting it
sometime in the first half of 2016 so should be that long stay tuned I wonder
what they're going to call the new Titan cuz x and z are the only really cool
letters Titan Y no oh Titan Titan why
Titan why are you so expensive what if
it's like Titan H yeah but the H looks like a very like
structurally wow very structurally sound
like I don't know so what it looks like an ibeam
yeah why don't they just call it the Titan triangle then is this the it's the
strongest shape cuz Titan tit black and
well the Titan Z was the Dual GPU one Z
damn I was going to say cuz if this was the third one yeah they could do titan 3
and then that would fit with the 3D
transistors I but it's not so I don't
know all right so this is kind of cool uh original article here is from RS
Technica uh here we go for a few truly
bad dmca takedowns YouTube is offering
to cover legal costs to protect some
video makers who lean on fair use so one
of the examples of of fair use would be things like reviews where you'll be
using clips of you know Hollywood movies or AAA games things that would normally
be well I guess games to a lesser extent but would normally be you know very
protected no unauthorized reproduction of the blah blah blah Etc fines and jail
time Etc but for the sake of critique uh
you know this is how channels that do movie reviews for example are able to
show what they're actually talking about in the video the point of the video and
and that's that's what that's what that's what helps them get around uh the
copyright law the point of the video is not the movie the point of the video is
their own content that's illustrated by
them pointing at what they're talking about in the movie
so with that said there there have been
some there have been some um some issues
with uh here there were a couple of couple of examples uh total biscuit I
believe was one of them unfortunately that didn't make it into that
unfortunately didn't make it into the notes really okay well unfortunately
there have been a couple situations where folks that feel like they really
should be protected by fair use are not
being and YouTube is offering up to a million dollars to protect them so
that's that's pretty interesting and it actually comes on the heels for me this
news um of a really unfortunate
situation that we ran into this week where we used a classical piece of music
from the YouTube music library that was
composed over 50 so it was uh the compo
the original composer died over 50 years ago making it public domain making the
actual sheet music itself the composition public domain in the US and
Canada but um and then the the the
um uh the the player who actually the recorder who went ahead and and played
the music and then uh made their made
their recording of it free for commercial use and all that stuff and
you know allowed it to be in the YouTube music library said you know yep
everything's cool with me but International copyright law it turns
out is a bit of a bear and in Germany
you have to wait until 70 years after
the artist passes so it hasn't been 70 years yet so we actually got a letter
about a video that we uploaded ages ago that's got like a million views now um
we got a letter saying that we owe $4500 oh my God as a retroactive
worldwide license for this song because they are the rights holder of the sheet
music even though in our territory it is not uh it is not protected now this is
this is one of those situations where I really don't think there's going to be a
whole lot that going to come of it because this music has been used an
awful lot over a span of a year and the fact that they're just sitting on it now
waiting for an opportunity to to go after people like I really don't think
they're going to be able to Target the potentially tens of thousands of YouTube
creators who have used that particular composition and extract €4,500 from all
of them um and there was already a post on Reddit where someone went through the
same thing whose lawyer advised them not to pay and eventually it the whole thing
went away um but it really it really
does it really does bring up an excellent point
about whose responsibility is what in
this whole online content creation thing because if YouTube's providing the music
library which technically they do have a disclaimer on saying you know we're not
responsible for whatever um but that
opens up like let's say in all of our 3,000 videos we had used this song we
could potentially owe you know whatever ever that works out too so
4500 time 3,000 sorry I'm not that great
at this is going to be really brutal so we could owe 13 and a half million euros
potentially um which I don't know how
much you guys know about how much YouTube channels make but that sure as
heck ain't it um there's there's a lot of misconceptions there a lot of people
think we make way more than we do right okay well no in the entire time that
lonus Media Group has ever existed and for the foreseeable future 13.5 million
EUR will be Out Of Reach way more yeah
um so yeah I mean I'm not I guess I'm just
not really I'm not really sure where I'm going with this other than to say that
I'm glad that at least in these cases um
the first four oh here we go the first four videos in the program I was trying
to read that that was a really confusing little bit and I don't get it so here's
one sorry did I say oh you know what I actually don't know if total biscuit was
one of them I know Jim Sterling was though so so here's one of them this uh
this video is not available in your country due to copyright claim etc etc etc so oh this is a playlist of the four
so there's actually there's a few here okay so let's go back there we go no
sorry one of them Jim Sterling sorry sorry sorry I totally screwed up I
thought it was uh I thought it was total biscuit but I think what I did was I
read this article and then I watched um I watched a total biscuit thing about
copyright or something along those lines or fair use or whatever else um cuz he
has just does such a great job of explaining some of these more
complicated things um yeah so they can't basically they're
saying they can't offer legal protection for every Creator but they will resist
legally unsupported dmca takedowns because in the past it's been as simple
as like um yeah that's mine so you know
no and it and it goes down right away without them actually having to provide
any proof other than just signing a thing that says yep I'm the right soer I
mean I've gone through the process a lot of times and I haven't issued any by
mistake like all of mine are actually content that I own and was and were
re-uploaded without my approval except by one that accidentally we can tell
that story after that's pretty that's pretty funny story um but it's so easy
all I have to do is go this is my digital signature yep uh you know I'm a
representative of this and blah blah blah and boom it goes down usually
within a couple hours just like that and
uh unfortunately some times the system can work too
well um we got a copyright strike this
week actually there's a lot of stuff that's happened this week it's been kind of a crazy week we got a copyright
strike which I have never had before and
it basically disabled a ton of my YouTube Creator profile until I went to
copyright school which I failed by the way um well I tried to challenge the
test and I got one thing wrong oh but
what's funny about it is that it gave me access to my control panel anyway so I
really don't know what the point of copyright school was in that case um
anyways so so when we dug further into
it so so we got a copyright strike because a successful dmca takedown had
been issued for some of our content and
I was like what and it was like uh uh
what was it it was one of the um the Silverstone headphone stand design
contest videos and I was like I I don't even think there was any music in there
what what is this even what is this even about and so finally because my account
is so limited and because the video has been pulled down it's hard to find any
information about it but I finally got to the right page and the claimant was
lonus Media
Group so when I dug into it the contact
email was for Colton so I was like okay that guy who's
uh whose bio on the site says that he's just not as good at Nick not as good as
Nick and Nick light so uh apparently he's not as good as Nick at uh filing
takedowns because he managed to do a takedown on our own damn video which
okay and this was after I had sent a super iate email to YouTube being like
hey yo I need my account back right away we've got uploads to do and stuff and
they're just like um it was issued by you have you
tried retracting the takedown no I will look into that
C okay so he's he's he's changed his little blurb now so that's a little bit
better but we might need to add to that also tries to attack own company yeah
yeah yeah Pro protects protects the intellectual property of lonus Media
Group G media to an unprecedented
degree oh my goodness oh man oh oh
Colton's Colton's texting Colton's texting Yeah Colton's Tex sent meh Rex y
yeah yeah so it's okay Colton we love you we love you dearly although I don't
know why you're watching WAN Show instead of doing actual go back to work
yeah get back to work we don't have to yell he's watching the show but he
shouldn't be right but he is so we don't
have to yell that's fair back to work
okay so this is I always oh I love that
these articles so much so uh this is
from barons.com ah yes yeah yes uh get
the full story yeah I think I can live without the full story um AMD could be
profitable in 24 months uh this is
according to JP Morgan um the chip firm needs to drive
share gains and remain disciplined on expenses to reach operating
profitability and they should probably send samples on time oh my yeah that's
okay so you know what's really funny is
normally when we're laate on a review um
for like a key launch product Intel CPU AMD GP NVIDIA GPU I was going to say AMD
CPU but that hasn't happened in the entire timeline as Media Group has
existed um usually there's there's there's going
to be there's going to be a couple of different camps right there's the camp that's just like hey I want to watch the
video and then there's the camp that's like hey you're so biased you didn't
cover this for the
380x crickets I didn't get a single
message asking why we didn't review the
380x literally no one cared it seems like a really good value card yeah it
seems all right but you know what else was interesting um a NCH doesn't have a
review up whoa yeah you they have AMD
zone or whatever uh do they still have the AMD Zone on anon.com I don't see it
yeah it's gone it's gone the AMD zone is gone um all right then yeah wow Zotac
that must have say Z literally a takeover has an entire
takeover they've got the top Banner spot left right Banner uh so they got the
background here and then they've also got the tower Banner above the fold here
and then poor Corsair and the and the
yep more down here no no no there's the
wow there's so many ads oh my God I wonder if anyone has
ever seen this banner before we did it just now maybe not possibly not um but
yeah so I haven't actually talked to Ryan over there but um my my assumption
is they probably ran into the same thing we did and it's funny because this
really never used to happen to us that often but it's happened twice in the
last little while our 6700k skyl Skylake
chip ended up in Peru twice before coming to us two weeks late and our 380x
arrived a couple of hours before wow started today so we actually were
probably the most on the ball this was the most prepared we've been for any GPU
video ever ever been okay all other
cards were already tested using the latest driver all them from the NVIDIA
stack all them from AMD stack the the the the bench which we have actually
moved to a tower case now so we can do better thermal uh evaluations and better
because especially now that cards are going to boost differently depending on
whether they're in a case or not really important really important so so we were
like yeah we're like we're like on this we're ready that we're just going to
throw that card in there we're going to run six benchmarks and it's going to be
ready to freaking Rock and so we have emails like our
email chain with AMD is hilarious because it's like yeah your card's
shipped yeah your card should be there by now do you have a tracking number let
me let me look into that and get back to you I'm like yo do you have a tracking
number oh yeah your car didn't ship like
okay so what made you think our card shipped oh we're going to get one from
someone else it's here now it's here now so we're going to we're going to hit
that early next week and get that go sure we haven't done a live unboxing in
the dog's age oh uh do you want to grab uh do you want to grab a here okay guys
hang no go go go go I I'll get the other thing we'll be we'll be right back after
these messages
I don't know where he is let's do
this why is there like no one watching did we do something wrong did we there's
4,800 really no 6,800 according to this
but then that's usually not right 6800 yeah yeah no no so Terri no we've got
we've got actually a great live audience today in spite of the fact that we've
gotten almost nothing done okay hold on hold on I went and got a webcam oh yeah
old SCH yeah
man everything everything I hate
you that's me
I'm it's funny because that is old
school because we've totally done that we have definitely done we have definitely pretended we've even like
we've even done like takes in a video where I'll like cut the one side and
then we we'd open it yeah and and we turn it around so we can break the seal
on camera again okay hold on hold on I got to get the um I got to get the
resolution right here hold on hold on I can't turn it around unfortunately okay
I'm just gonna I'm just going to go for 720p here oh look at that view of my
ugly sweater yeah you guys want to look at
that I feel like we're watching a very different type of content right now yeah
okay all right all right we're gonna we're gonna break the seal for definitely the first time ever wow that
that cut so easily whoa
oh dang dang nabbit um
AIO yeah uh just C oh camera oh uh uh
here okay theoretically that's fixed
should we wait um no let's just let's just go for it let's just go for it
breaking the seal for the first time for the third
time a yeah
Okay so we've got some pretty standard packaging here oh oh hold on still
suck uh apparently not fixed oh okay
well um a man I was so
determined to uh there how about now shouldn't
matter you should just change the master Source right the master Source yeah like
oh tools
audio Yeah default microphone
oh there we go okay should work yeah
okay okay cutting the seal for the first time for the fourth time yes shwin wow
wow it's not focusing either wonderful oh God is it on manual focus no I don't
think so okay oh there we go o so we've
got some pretty standard brown packaging which I think Brown package I think
that's Sapphire's kind of thing they do that we do have foam which is good all
right protective foam for at the bumps oo it's like 100
nipples there's a there's a CD which you should throw away who wa there's some
packaging stuff which you probably don't care about whatever and then there's the
graic right now I'll deal with it in a
moment I was you're Casey nice at him you're making a mess and you're terrible
okay so it's tall it's really tall oh that's interesting I don't know if
that's standard that's the Luke Edition I don't know if it's supposed to
be that tall it also has a back plate it's tall and it has two
fans your mom and your dad yeah get wrecked you're a dick um it says on the
box with a sticker that it has a back plate included so I don't necessarily
think that's a standard thing back plate I don't know if I don't really think all
28xs come with a back plate I'm also wondering if this is aftermarket so much
that it has an extra thing yeah it seems like it yeah that's definitely a
non-reference although I don't even know if they have a reference PCB for this card I have no idea two six pins for
power no fingers obviously because it goes through the board now there's a
switch so I'm assuming there's dual BIOS on this dual bio switch pretty nice got
two giant fans yep some oh don't talk about your parents that way no I mean
giant as in like effort they're trying
really hard um there's looks like there's four heat pipes four heat pipes
yeah with a copper base plate ooh maybe
a vapor chamber maybe no no I don't think so hard to say they definitely
would have said yeah 10 cm fans dual x
cooling back plate watching someone read off the Box really does remind me of the
old unboxings that's how we did it man so
great I like that it's not a super complicated like this would be super
easy to take off which is kind of cool the cool is pretty thick but again I
don't think they're all going to come like this how heavy is it the
uh surprisingly heavy but not by a ton
like it's not a brick it's got some quality heft to it this is the Nitro the
Nitro so I'm assuming it is a it's nitrocharged for gamers yeah as opposed
to being nitrocharged for web surfing my
fans yeah all right well there you go wa
IO we have dual DVI HDMI and DisplayPort I'm not going to pull the things
out cuz I want to keep it nice and then yeah I think that's it okay well thank
you thank you Luke for that uh that live
unboxing uh which is totally totally authentically opening it for the first
time for times only the fourth time yeah only the fourth time okay uh this is
technically signed out under you so I'm giving that back to you to yeah it's
officially not my responsibility anymore
wow uh let's go ahead and uh and move
into our oh right did we ever actually finish that AMD could be profitable in
two years topic well okay oh so here
here well I guess we'll do it um so success depends on the company's
execution according to the article which is why we got to the whole idea of us
not getting the card on time right success also depends on their time to
Market and product performance SL power efficiency so who pays these people to
be analysts can we be these guys I want to be the analyst we could do that AMD
planning stronger professional Graphics push in 2016 really okay just like has
in what they've been doing for the last sort of while here that's their company
expanding into medicine Factory Automation and security that's
interesting which is just another way of saying
um processing giant contracts y because
everyone would uh Zen processor
speculation okay got it thank you this
is not an inventory I'm run it back oh sure thanks Luke I don't want
you know what I should probably do then is why don't I why don't I jet through
our our sponsor stuff here for today so our first sponsor is a one that we
actually haven't I feel like we haven't talked about Dollar Shave Club in a long
time well uh today's first sponsor is Dollar Shave Club the service that lets
you sign up to get a new razor every
month well not just a new razor you actually get like a set of new razor
blades so that you can have a nice fresh shave every day yes every day you have
to be like with a knife which would be bad which would be terrible yeah who
would shave with a knife people without I don't know without Dollar Shave Club
subscriptions all right so uh basically they've got anywhere from a couple bucks
a month all the way up to their executive which is actually still very
affordable I think it's like $9 a month or something anyway I don't remember
exactly what the pricing is it's available in the in Canada the US
Australia and Australia I think is that it
wow I am I am just I am not I am not
feeling it today what are you doing but the point is they've got highquality
razors and other bathroom supplies they deliver them directly to your door for a
few bucks a month and all you got to do is go to
dollarshaveclub.com Linus and join the club Dollar Shave Club another thing
that gives you quality stuff and lets you be lazy which I'm super down with
you you don't have to leave the house to look like you leave the house um which
is helpful which is which is pretty good I mean sometimes people come over I
don't really leave the house much I know you just come here and go home yeah I
know this to be true but I don't like that
search open your eyes did you see that
sick picture that Brandon posted on Twitter of like the behind the scenes of
that of the luky am your father's scene like all the lighting and crap you know
what was the coolest thing about it no green screen wasn't beds or something oh
I I'm not sure I didn't I okay I think I've seen a shot of that from a long
time ago I don't know if it's the one that Brandon posted so freaking cool
though like it was like really far back like you could see all the lights and
crap that they had set up it was really cool that's cool and like you could see
all the people standing watching
like I have felt really weird at times
doing Booth coverage particularly for
Aus because you know what's weird though okay I'm way more comfortable if there's
a large group compared to like one or two people really if there's one or two
people that I know are intently watching then I'm like uh and I I get kind of
weird about it if there's like a relatively large group of them then I'm
like okay whatever I don't know why okay
well what I'll say about Booth coverage at ASUS is whenever I'm there like ASUS
goes all out at CES like they have
remember oh cuz their whole team floats and follows you okay that that is weird
Okay that is weird ASUS is a huge company and so they're going to have
like product management teams for every
category of products that they make so we're talking Optical drives laptops
bigger laptops oh smaller laptops tablets that turn into laptops tablets
that don't turn into laptops smartphones smartphones that turn into tablets
smartphones that turn into laptops it's endless routers that turn into laptops
um they transform and so whenever I'm doing
Booth coverage at ASUS there's like like the North American PR team that's kind
of following me around there's the product manage North American product
management team there's the Taiwan product management team there's the
Taiwan marketing people there's the like the sales people who are just like oh
what's this crowd of people following around this guy who's making videos in the booth and it gets to the point where
there have been times um there was one that really stood out to me it was for
like an all-in-one or something thing y it was for an all-in-one that turned
into an Android tablet a really big one
there was literally about 10 to 15 maybe
was it more it was basically everyone there it was a lot it was like somewhere
between 10 and 15 people watching me do my like like live to tape style
recording video and at the end of it they all applauded yeah it was one of
the weirdest experiences that I think that I've ever had making a video it was
pretty weird and I make videos with Nick Van burkel who apparently needs to talk
to me can I help you hey I just wanted to tell you guys that these are illegal
in New York streets now really really whoa for that
reason please don't break your neck at the office sorry New Yorkers you can't
be scooting around no more not New York anym only those like our Z boards and
stuff still okay really specifically
hoverboards interesting all right well wait and in the
streets like indoors I'm assuming there's nothing they can do you can buy
them you can use them the streets huh
skateboarding in yeah so in much the same way sidewalks right are we talking
okay yeah yeah so kind of like no skateboarding on the sidewalk no more hoverboarding or um
self-balancing uh scooter or like whatever the generic terms are for them
that's really interesting so I guess our our jousting match uh would not be
allowed in New York but that was that's what I'm asking that was on a park oh
but that was in a park okay okay so as long as would have been allowed in the
street or on the sidewalk as long as we don't joust on the sidewalk which I
don't think we would have wanted anyway yeah thank you for contributing a topic
to the W show for once in your life thanks Burl on the subject of of swagway
jousting actually it's not very often
these days that we kind of that are you going are you going to leak this no no
don't worry it's okay um check this out
my friends if you do not already have a
vessel subscription oh um or at least a
free trial vessel actually put together uh like a trailer for our most recent
Channel Super Fun you guys are going to want to watch
this yes my friends swagway
jousting in medieval armor check it out that's a pretty legit
trailer it is it is kind of worth it I wish they would have used the last hit
but it's okay it's okay because they saved the last hit a yeah yeah saved the
best part for last so they yeah they they sound apparently
yeah no I know I know uh so they the sound is great by the way burkel spent
so long God he was here so editing this video it's it's got to be the greatest
Channel Super Fun we've ever made though uh it's absolutely sick everyone's all
like I hate vessel well you know what vessel has made a big difference for us
this year they're actually pretty awesome and is a big part of the reason that we can have a person dedicated to
Channel Super Fun I'll let that sink in for a minute we have an employee
dedicated to Channel Super Fun that has done like a few thousand in total
sponsorship money ever and you can you
can look it up on social blade doesn't make a ton on AdSense so you guys do the
math these things help us develop new
and better content streams well we would have if you guys have I think we talked
about this a little bit on the last man show I don't know though we've shifted to a lot of like crazy cool projects
like the thing you leaked at the beginning of the W with the eight cores
and all that kind stuff my Fallout builds the two uh one computer two
Gamers like all these crazy build things that we're doing we have more employees
and extra time and better space and all this kind of stuff to do that largely
honestly because of vessel so we're kind of Bros with that yep there's a there's
a lot of there's there's there's a lot of contributing factors tons but I just
I don't want people to kind of go oh vessel's crap it's terrible it it it it
is very helpful if you look at it from the other side of the fence the Creator
side they're awesome yeah uh people are like why not Vimeo why Vimeo oh
God uh okay so actually we should probably do our other speaking of things
that help us help us uh keep things going around here TunnelBear is one of
today's episode sponsors the easy to use VPN app for mobile and desktop it lets
you tunnel in through up to 16 different countries allowing you to browse the
internet and use online services as though you are in that country tunnel
two 16 different countes thank you uh they have apps for iOS Android PC and
mac and they also have a Chrome extension so your bases are pretty much
covered you just pick your country in the app turn tunnel bear on and watch as
your bear tunnels I'm never going to get I'm never
going to get tired of that bears don't tunnel I love you guys tunnel bear
you're cool you got a great VPN service okay it's free for the first 500 Megs
which is super awesome a month they're not like moles but bears do not
tunnel they sleep in case they maybe climb trees okay they do that they want
something that's not really heavy ones yeah if they want something I with that
said Bears are kind of ba so like if they needed something that was
underground could they tunnel probably probably I'm sure they can dig but their
instincts do not drive them to Tunnel okay um and I find most large things
their instincts do not drive them to tunnel and their
um I can't think of any large animal that
tunnels do elephants
tunnel no I I do that okay well I
thought maybe the tusks for you know but does that count cuz Okay we have to
Define tunneling no no I meant like they could move them like this and make a
Boral hole in front of their face no I'm just kidding um so any anyway your
connection gets encrypted with aex 256bit encryption and if you want to
upgrade to unlimited data you guys can head over to Tunnel bear.com
LTT if the first 500 Megs is enough to
wet your appetite but not enough for all of your bre browsing needs someone said
polar bears tunnel in the snow is that
tunneling it's more like burrowing yeah
that's what I mean like what is tunneling so I think tunneling means you're like traveling under the ground
yeah I'm not sure though I haven't all right and Nick has given me
an updated copy for fresh books fresh
books is the easy to use invoicing software that helps small businesses
look professional and get paid faster and it does do that you can try fresh
book books completely free for 30 days at freshbooks.com
slw and make sure you type when in the how did You Hear About Us section oh I
don't know if we had that in the anyway so the point is if you're like a a small
computer repair technician or a a house painter or we got to come up with other
examples there's like a billion tiny businesses ifat help me if you want to
run like an an Arts instructional thing at your house and you want to have
people come over and stuff a small dance studio or a small Dance Studio if you
want to uh lessons of any kind private
massage uh yeah I mean you technically could use fresh books if you were doing
that kind of massages but my mom used to run a thing where she would massage old
people at Old Folks homes okay yeah she could run fresh books for invoicing for
that yeah there you go everyone's everyone's talking about cam girls the
entire twitch chat cam girls most of those have pre-done services that they
go through yeah you want to start your own but gardening gardening there we go
gardening is a good one Landscaping weed is not a good example unless it's legal
in which case and then that's it's ibly good example why not well no
because don't you have to no that would work yeah that would work pretty darn
well yeah because you just have to get the most places that I know there's like crazy government oversight but then once
you're set up you could use fresh books yeah yeah so anyway there you go guys uh

music okay so so hold on here here
here or wait hold on sorry I screwed up
okay okay hold on I have to pause this for a second okay twitch chat twitch
chat y'all got to hear me out for a second here okay this video has 1,200
likes and zero dislikes I know let's
keep it going okay I need all of you to
get over there get over there can you post post a link in twitch chat post
Link in twitch chat I wasn't actually going to shill it get over there and get
a like on that video let's try and do something unprecedented okay a video
with zero dislikes okay so back back to the video it gets it gets better it gets
better
AAC already wrecked my
God dicks like immediately
meip why I get enjoy experience
see
break you still have that bike right yeah you know do you know how many
people you've inconvenienced this morning do you know how many people
you've inconvenienced this morning by having a crappy car
atast to
he honked at me he did the Cal Tire
thing is like an omen now because uh
that's where we got Nick van burkel from yeah oh wow yeah Cal Tire yeah so Cal
Tire owed us one for honking at us rudely 240 dislikes what the [ __ ] way to
go guys oh my God look at at the
bar Wow way to go so well it had like
1,00 likes and zero dislikes and out of
out of all of you who took the time to go to the video okay only about 800 of
you clicked like and 250 of you clicked dislike so this tells us once and for
all the percentage of twitch chat that
is pure troll is pretty hot to the core
okay it was pure troll I was so happy with
that too because it actually had zero and was like pretty high and I was like
that's pretty cool oh man well I'm sorry
I wrecked it by trying to help I that's that's what happened here the thing is
too right when you said it I was like that's cool oh God no it's not I'm so
going to get wrecked there is still time there is
still time for you to find the good in you and go
go back and like it there's still time
the your 240 Souls can still be saved
okay come back from the troll um all right what else we got here
this is great so former Apple designers say that Apple has lost the fundamental
principles of good design I don't know how else to wreck a company more than
that yeah and there's verbally there's some pretty good points here so this
this is coming from Apple's first interface designer and the thing the
thing that you could kind of say is well okay A lot has changed since the Apple
po you need to be able to do more yeah and you need to be able to do more and
and and more purchase decisions are made
these days based on how a device looks
whether it's rose gold or space gray um
versus you know what specs does it have and you know how many lines of code can
it show on the screen in you know one color green you know or whatever like
like the the world has changed but but the fundamentals of good design don't
necessarily go away and there are some very legitimate criticisms here so uh
they criticize Apple for having no Universal back or undo button this is
something that I have been hating on for so long and I'll hear people say well no
and and one of the things I complain about is most of the time according to
Apple's guidelines it's in the top left and I said well hold on a second Apple
still hasn't fixed this crap even though they've got big phones that you can't
reach with one hand anymore and people are like no cuz you can swipe from the
left sometimes usually even not always
and inconsistencies that's a huge problem
huge you need to have the UI work the same way kind of all the time or else
that's not good another one is what they
call hidden gesture-based menus and I
know that there are freaks on Earth you
heard me Taran freaks who can have
literally 30 macro buttons on their
computers and have multiple profiles of
different sets of macros remember where they are and can actually use them it's
insane it's amazing like they're not labeled but for most people a lot of the
gestures that are showing up in iOS are
going to be ones that they're just plain not going to remember exist I mean
there's the ones that are really handy like swipe to search uh you swipe up for
you know being able to turn on the flashlight or disable Wi-Fi but for
whatever reason not enable portable hot
spot um but there's but there's ones that are
just like yeah it's like two fingers to do this and three fingers for that and
four fingers for this and it's just like who's going to even use this stuff how
about you just make that functionality accessible in a way that's actually meaningful to me and then the last one
is pushing visual Simplicity over usability testing
in the new human interface guidelines that they're publishing for
developers um to be clear they're not only criticizing Apple for this they're
also criticizing Google Maps um Google Maps like used to be so easy to use and
now because I don't use it very often pretty much every time I try to find the
satellite view I can't find it I'm just for Google Maps yeah yeah just like
where the crap did they put it
ah um
trying to navigate somewhere with someone who uses Apple Maps is actually
infuriating cuz it'll just suck the whole time and I'm just like yeah I
don't mind it it's been really it at least doesn't take me literally 25
minutes away from where I'm trying to go like Google Maps has done a couple of times really yeah what when I was
shopping for this place I missed the appointment to see this place the first
time because Google Maps took me to some residential area like L literally way
out in like 260th Street that's brutal and it's like in Europe I get it okay
because in Europe no offense to Europeans but the way streets are laid
out are ridiculous it's just random like
you might as well just you might as well just like you know take take a map of
the town like shake it and like kick it
and then like take a hat full of like random words and dump it on it and like
that's how they're named impossible in North America it's
very simple okay I'd love to okay you got your streets going this way and
they're numbered sequentially for the most part and then you got your by City
kind of thing and then you got your avenues that go this way it starts at
zero for America and then goes up that
would be okay very simple not to like it's a grid go off topic so you could
sanity check that's the point I'm trying to make though is they could sanity check in addess to make sure it makes at
least an ounce of sense yeah whereas in Europe I understand that that's not
always possible that is the reason why I kind
of want to start our skit Channel because doing what you like dressing up
in like super old school English clothing right and like actually like
shaking the thing and throwing the words in and then like making it seem super
official like if we had some like naming ceremony or something that would be
hilarious I want to do a sketch comedy channel um I don't I can't figure out
the economics of it and and that's like a huge problem that's a huge problem
because we can't just do random things that make us happy unfortunately the
world doesn't work that way although Channel Super Fun has we we do do some
of that but sketch comedy it like to do
it well and I want to do it well like I want to have you know a budget and
actors and props and locations and you
know not the free grade of music like I want to have like good music in it that
you will you'll end up having to pay for like to to do sketch comedy right we would
probably need somewhere in the neighborhood of about a $5,000 budget
per sketch to be even decent yeah at
least and that's like you guys are probably looking at they're going well you guys are just wasting money or
whatever no no it's it's it's called sustainability like yes we could make a
sketch on our own time on the weekends for very cheaply but if it's part of
what we're doing as a company and if it's if it's not if it's part of like
you know making the people who help us the actors who contribute to our production or the camera operators who
come in and help us like part of making sure that they're making a living you
have to pay those people fairly and fairly doesn't necessarily mean 15 bucks
an hour because you know that's the minimum wage plus sum because these
people are are in a feast and famine industry yeah so when there's no work
they're getting paid nothing which means that when they are getting paid they need to be making like so can kind of
stash it for the winter that's that's right um so people are like lus loves to
lecture us um to be fair he's pretty good at it if he was a teacher I would
legitimately listen and that's that's
good someone El like at this job lonus racism what streets being poorly laid
out in Europe has nothing to do with racism it has to do with has nothing to
do with race I'm of European descent so as far as races go has to do with they
were set up a really long time ago and built upon for way too long so now
they're a mess exactly it has nothing to do with and it's like incredibly
difficult to go back and fix that also known it's probably impossible yes
probably impossible like what are you what are you going to do like like can
you can you he going to randomly rename everything all at once and just watch
everyone just be in the worst traffic jam in the even that's impossible though
because like the streets are just like a maze well because they weren't probably
designed can you can you imagine okay can you imagine like you know someone
running for mayor of London or whatever they call that position over there I
don't know if they call it mayor anyway my point is um can you imagine their
plan being okay over the next 20 years
every two years we're going to level a tenth of the city and put it back
together in a sensible manner right it's not going to happen
it's not going to happen so like I get it it's just yeah yeah lennis isn't
racist he's misunderstood
uh yeah sure let's go with uh all right
Intel says Moore's Law Isn't Dead original article here is from Venture
beat and was posted by the on the Forum by Neo fala okay I'm not I'm not saying
this exact article is being read on on the W show but have we not had an
article from Intel with the same title before yes oh multiple times yeah yeah
Intel always you say this well they wouldn't have a year they wouldn't have
to if everyone else wasn't running around saying Mo's law was dead okay
that's fair all right all right so so inel gets all defensive and
like stop like when I I visit vised
AMD's um SSD thing in fulsome back like
four years ago or something like that and I accidentally walked into a room
that had like I I think I can talk about it now because their their 3D nand is
out but this was like really early stages like technical drawings of how
their 3D nand was going to work and they were like you you've been in here you
didn't take any pictures of that whiteboard right I'm like no like don't
take any pictures of that whiteboard and they went over and like erased it like it was like it was like a big deal
anyway um so I actually did interviews with some of their engineers and I was
like okay so the hard drive guys are saying that you know Moors law and and
ssds can't scale in capacity the way that magnetic has and they're just
like we're pretty sure it can and I was like no but we're pretty
sure it can and I was like okay but can you elaborate we're pretty sure it can
I'm like okay fine I get it you guys are you guys are cocky I get that I respect
that that's fine um I never actually
pulled up the article here so I put it in twitch chat though good job all right
Intel says morla ain't dead yet um so they figure we're gonna make it all the
way down to what was it like seven n yeah so Intel can see its path through 7
nanometer in spite of some difficulties with 14 nanometer that have been fairly
well uh well publicized so here's a slide that is in extremely low
resolution but hopefully you guys somewhat get the point um but one thing
that is happening for sure is that the cost per millimeter squared is going up
so even though you're still able to achieve that doubling of uh how many
transistors you can put per millimeter squared it is getting more expensive so
don't expect to see and we've already seen this to a certain extent don't
expect to see that twice as many transistors NE like a capability
necessarily turn into chips that are twice as capable because in order to
offset the additional cost per MIM squ we might end up with smaller chips so
it's something that you know we've already kind of seen happening but um
will become more and more of a factor as time goes on excited for graphine okay I
just dumped that in there someone posted in the chat can't believe you guys
haven't talked about the new Lumia yet and I was like what are you even talking
about this is 12 hours ago this is oh no
this is the review no this was announced a while back this this the same time as
uh the devices people care about Surface Book and uh and Surface Pro 4 yeah um
yeah I was going to say for one I think we covered the rumor but I guess that
was just the announcement not the rumor and it's a Windows phone so so it's
still got Windows on it yeah all right cool basically I like
super quickly skimmed through the review and there was nothing that I didn't
expect okay also I looked up tunneling and it
says dig or force a passage underground or through something a pass so I don't
think a like a Burrow under the snow
counts cuz it's not a passage so technically a tunnel has to go somewhere
yeah that's interesting I actually didn't know
that so tuny tummel or tummy tunnel
could still be correct because it goes somewhere tummy tunnel yeah your tummy
tunnel is that just your belly button no like your your intestines your tummy
tunnel yeah yeah it goes somewhere yeah yeah yeah yeah all right um speaking of
things that no one cared about we actually I think we were teasing them
about this a little bit when we did the unboxing but we should talk about sort of where the uh where the R9 380x Falls
in place within the rest of the gaming landscape um it's really it's this is
really funny okay I'm going to tell a story that I'm not sure oh yeah I was
going to tell a funny story before that I never ended up telling I don't think
oh yeah I don't remember sorry I don't know what you're you you were prompting
me to to tell it I think it was funny or something oh crap yeah I know no wasn't
that the Colton thing yes okay so the R9
380x it's really funny because Luke was joking to me when when we found out that
we weren't going to get the card in time so we ended up releasing a moving Vlog
that we've kind of had in the bank for a rainy day for a while instead of our
380x review which was on the schedule um
he was like so you know what we could do
oh is just test all the rest of the
cards look at the MSRP of the R9 380x
and then just take the price and the prices of the other cards and
extrapolate the FPS from there and I was
like you're joking right he's like yes
I'm like okay good and I'm like but that would totally
work because and this has been the conclusion for what like your last eight
graphics card like a long time I love doing the videos
but like the conclusion is like yeah you all
knew this AMD or NVIDIA I think in every single video it's been a like so the
performance is unsurprising but it slots here like I seriously think I've said
that for like a year now at least AMD or NVIDIA looks at the other cards on the
market and looks at where how theirs performs because they're the only ones
who know at that point and then they price it exactly where it fits and that
is what the r93 DX is it's a compelling value if you wanted to spend $230 on a
graphics card good value card if you wanted to spend $200 you could buy the
380 and if you wanted to spend $250 you
could get a $285 and all of those things would make
sense yeah there's no like surprises in the graphics industry right now at all
yeah how much money do you have this much pick a team there you go good
job oh I'm really hoping that with the
the die shrink and with hbm NVIDIA is going to knock my socks off next year we
need seriously like even I went to GDX a
little while ago NVIDIA announced this like super cool thing that they're
working on with a gaming company where they're doing like a climbing Everest
simulator yeah that looks really cool it's badass and awesome good good good
but there was these really interesting panels with some like industry
influencers or uh speculators or developers like the the CEO if CCP games
was there and CCP games is making like some of the coolest stuff in VR um
Valkyrie is badass they had a game there which was basically the Tron game where
you throw discs so I got to play that against
Colton I think I beat him like 20 something to two poor so that was fun
Get Wrecked um but like that was
probably the second most fun VR demo I've ever done and Valkyrie was the
first so like CCP is kind of wrecking it right now which is awesome totally down
for that um but there's some really cool stuff but one thing that was said more
than once up on stage was like whoa this
is really hard to run yeah like a lot of
people were like okay wow yes there will be mobile experiences and those will
probably be the most of the market which they're probably right and they are
working on rendering tricks to you know don't render it from that angle and pre
pre fishe just this little bit at full res and render the rest of it at much
however it's still incredibly hard to run and the mobile ones are going to be
super basic there's a CCP game called gunjack which is kind of Valkyrie but
also kind of not like it's it's you're in space and you're shooting gun at
other spaceships but you're in a fixed position everything comes at you oh so
it's asteroid I don't yeah it's modern that sounds badass it's modern asteroid
it's tons of fun but like if you think about Valkyrie compared to that Valkyrie
is way more intense right so they're going to be way narrowed down when
they're mobile and when they're on PC you're going to need a beast machine to
run these things without getting sick cuz you need insane this is this is cool
uh for the first time SLI might
universally make a ton of sense yeah vsli looks badass because it can render
each eye separately as its own as its
own low latency path um I am super
stoked on what SLI means for VR performance it could be a literal
doubling across the board oh yeah that's right you do don't you
yes all right Nick insists so I'm going
to do it Nick insists that I bring this up the LT Edition no to a fans are in
stock yeah you can actually order them and they will ship immediately the
pre-orders I know people waited longer than they wanted to but the good news is
my Twitter feed has been absolutely flooded with people talking about how
much they love them and showing them installed in their systems it's been
great I haven't gotten a single piece of negative Fe feedback um I haven't gotten
a single person tweeting at me saying it didn't work which is great which is
exactly why we partnered with Noctua for this because I did not want to see that
kind of stuff with that said some of them will fail oh yeah even the best
product in the world fails we're shipping too many to have I think 100%
success 4,000 we're shipping 4,000 so
with that said um so I got performance pc site up here there's 303 NFA 14s left
for Americans there there are 143 nff
12s left for Americans um overclockers
doco.com
20 so if you guys want them um get yours
today I don't know if we're going to make more I legitimately don't know if
we're going to make more um I mean this was something that was really cool and
like I was really happy to be able to do it if we make more are we taking the
limited edition sticker off the new ones or no no they will still be limited
because if we make more that will very likely be the last run okay yeah like
they won't last forever that's for sure I'm not getting into the business of
like selling fans all day and allocating
of our warehouse space to like pallets of fans that's not happening um this is
just something that I felt really passionately I wanted to exist so I I
bought 4,000 of them so that I could make sure that we met the minimum order
quantity so that they could exist and then now that they exist I am content
they exist now I don't need to make more of them um also oh right this is huge
there is a new merch store so this link
merch dolus ships.com has always kind of
led to a super crappy merch store that's like all out of stock and stuff and like
overpriced shipping and a lot of other issues we have officially partnered with
Teespring to bring you guys a fully Teespring out merch store and to
celebrate we have brought back almost
all of our previous designs so now they
are not just available in one style or one color you can go to any of our
designs and you can pick the colors that you want see check that out you can pick
the uh the style that you want so you can get now get hoodies in some of the
styles that never had hoodie designs before like just the plain W stealth
shirt and if I'm right not necessarily all of them but a few of the designs
that aren't here right now might be coming still like resolution is just a
number res resolution is just a number has to be retooled to be uh 10 colors or
less and uh bro fist also has to be
retooled to reduce the number of colors because we're using a different printing
technology here that um that it can't do more than 10 colors
yeah so there you go guys and and there's more to it than that this is
really cool so for the holiday Nick is literally messaging me about this now
I'm sure that's what he's doing uh oh yeah have good oh oh okay yeah no that's
that's fine Nick um and stay tuned guys
because we are planning to do an offer code for the holiday season um so that
every design is going to be available for a discount for the holiday season I
don't remember what the offer code is but uh yeah stay tuned for that guys
because it's going to be awesome do we have a final count on the
number of episodes for scrapyard Wars yeah seven okay so this this weekend
will be the final episode on vessel and then next week will be the final episode
on YouTube I just I like I knew that
didn't know if it was public yep well no it wasn't now it is now it is cool seven
there we go now when I stream I don't need like literally my entire chat just
asking me when scrapp your voice is going to end that's awesome um this is
really cool Sony enabled PlayStation 2 backwards
compatibility sort of without telling anyone uh they they have officially
announced it now but um there you go
that's cool I like me update a Sony representative sent us the following
statement in response to our career about the emulator's existence we are
working on utilizing PS2 emulation technology to bring PS2 games forward to
the current generation we have nothing further to comment at this point in time
not that I would know obviously I would have no idea at all but I think PC users
have been able to do this for like PS2 yeah yeah yeah there's PS2 em not that
we would know no I no I legitimately haven't run a PS2 emulator I have a PS2
but uh but I know that they exist I have run PS1 emulators um I never owned a PS1
I'll admit to that well actually I did own one but the optical drive broke and it was out of warranty so r i used an
emulator what aren't we like not supposed to well I own the game okay and
I owned a console okay is that actually
a thing or is that it's not it's not legal but in much the same way that I
can own all the DVDs of South Park and I
will stream it to myself using air video which is technically not allowed in some
countries anyway I don't even know in Canada I don't care because as far as
I'm concerned you paid for the content I paid for that piece of content so you
guys can just I'm down to back that um yeah so so as far as I'm concerned if I
own Final Fantasy Tactics I like actually don't emulate things so I was
trolling a little bit but like I actually don't I have a PS2 and like the
games that I wanted to play on PS2 I own
I don't know why I just like playing with the authentic experience one of the reasons that I emulate is that I really
like sa States safe states are cool but that's actually part of it for me is I
want to struggle through it like it was me playing in that day no I'm not that
into that I mean like back when like the
the save point was like this manipulative thing to make you keep
playing when it's like realistically you know what my kid's crying right now see
that makes sense I don't have I don't have time for that like and and part of it for me is I want to have a lot on the
line because a lot with those games was they're not actually that long of it's
like the accomplishment of getting there is like having to sit through the bloody
cut scene again if you don't beat the boss this time is a punishment literally
is a punishment and that makes it that once you beat him it's like yes now to
be clear I ration my use of save states
I use save states for for convenience
and for time management I do not use them to cheat okay so a game like Final
Fantasy Tactics is have you ever played it no play it now play It Go home and
play it okay it is great I've always I
played a game that was a tactics game that wasn't Final Fantasy and I loved it
then everyone was like play and I just I don't know why I haven't I'm excited to
I want to I own it I just have play it now okay so anyway it's but it's a
turn-based it's a turn-based strategic yeah game so it would be so
easy to cheat with save states but I don't I use save states to make sure
that I can pause the game when I have to walk away for it for two days see that's
cool like when I was a kid right and I didn't have an emulator and I had a
Super Nintendo I just have to leave my my sness on for like you know a week
sometimes done of course you have done so many times and if the power goes out
it's like come on yeah yeah come on you
got to make sure that like where your console is isn't an enclosed space and
it can breathe or else it'll like over here yeah twitch chat twitch chat now
just do it tactics now I saw that I saw that great game IA oh people are asking
how to get the the hoodie I'm that we're wearing uh that's uh teespring.com
Christmas so the main store is just for
past campaigns we're still going to do like limited edition campaigns so uh so
there you go all right what else do we have what else do we have for for this
week oh this is a really cool thing about the Playstation 2 emulator U much
like many emulators can do they are actually taking this opportunity to
upsample the games so they are running at uh looks like uh 12292 by 89
cool stuff apparently runs pretty smoothly only a few titles have been
released for backwards compatibility so far um like some Star Wars stuff and
stuff like that that's probably why they haven't announced it yet well okay that's probably why they didn't announce
it until now I guess this was posted by nine shadow on the Forum Samsung is
bringing back the flip phone with a smart flip phone yes my friends a
smartphone flip phone to be fair when we were in Japan it doesn't really seem
like the flip phone is fully dead yeah okay fair
enough there you go cool CPU 1.8 gz 1.4
GHz big little uh well that's interesting 768 by 1280 so they've gone
not quite 16 by 9 very interesting Super
AMOLED screen okay so basically it's not like a flagship device or anything like
that but personally I think there's a value to the flip phone it does put the
microphone closer to your mouth so that's cool it has 64 gigs of internal
storage uh oh no never mind oh sorry no
no no no I I misinterpreted a couple of
things here that is a flagship phone that's got an EXO 742 3 gigs of RAM 64
gigs of storage Android 5.1.1 lollipop
and two 3.9 in Super AMOLED displays with a 16 megapixel primary camera and a
numeric T9 keypad this is in Chinese and I did not translate it but looking at
the rating thing at the bottom is hilarious 5 out of 5 5 out of 5 4 out of
5 1 out of five I have no idea what they got wed on but they got wrecked on
something can I help you oh thank you um
what else do what else was I oh yeah do you think did you ever really uh did you
ever really text using T9 like was that a thing for you for a long time or did
you get a cell phone which one was T9 uh T9 was predictive number pad typing yeah
I did okay so not like press it three times for yeah no I did okay you did um
do you think you could type faster on T9 than on a touch screen still
I think I'd be out of the groove I think I'd have to like train
because T9 was like a you could have skill oh yeah you could be really fast
on I knew friends that were like insanity fast on T9 um so like I think
I'd have to get back into it um I still use it a little cuz I dial on my
contacts with T9 oh interesting you don't do that I don't do that oh it's by
far the fastest way to call people cuz you you just bring up the dial pad and
then you just like boom Oh yeah and it
brings up the corresponding T9 matches and if but if you dial phone numbers it
also recognizes that that's what I do yeah but you know people's phone
numbers uh actually a lot of people that
I call yeah okay well I I'll know a section like I'll know three digits
yours I know cuz reasons but um like other people like I know fours I know
four digits of my dads I know three digits of my brothers huh like I yeah
I'll know like a little bit of different people s enough that I can type it in
there and it'll come up or it's in my favorite s of the to do you think with practice you could get faster than
touchcreen uh when looking at the phone yes with
touchcreen I can text blindly I don't think I could do that
with C9 oh okay and I think that's probably enough for me right yeah that
makes sense I'm actually going to try and get like I I don't even know if it's
going to be um I don't know if they're going to have released it in North
America but I'm going to try and go back to a flip I'm going to see if I can get a review unit of that phone cool I'd be
interested in what the battery life's like yeah I'd be really interested to know what the battery life's like oh oh
I can announce the uh the offer code so for $3 off everything in the Teespring
store uh the offer code is all caps holiday some of you people in chat were
complaining about the price tags the price tags yeah they were too expensive
the dollar dollar bills yeah so what up now son cheaper yeah $3 off boom
uh what else we got here
um stupid watch oh yeah right this
stupid thing okay so you know what I mean it's not like
the idea is stupid introducing the block Smartwatch the uh the we even ripped the
name off of phone blocks now it's like watch blocks um so it's made of it's a
modular Smartwatch made of several links or modules Each of which can be a
variety of different things including a finger F print scanner heart rate sensor LED sgsm blood oxygen level blah blah
haptic feedback camera flash memory developer module kinetic charger extra
battery body temperature Etc we're live on Kickstarter and that's when my
interest level completely fell off the rails so it's a really cool idea and
then you figure out that they're a Kickstarter project and then it's no longer a really cool idea estimated
shipping date is June 2016 well I guess it's still a cool idea still really cool
idea thing but I just have so little faith I mean just in the last week alone
okay the coolest cooler made headlines
for not having fulfilled its backer
orders yet and having the cooler up for
sale on Amazon in an attempt to recoup
the money that they need to produce the
units for the kickstarter backers which I kind of get and if I was in their
situation that's a whole lot better than folding the company outright but it
really is a kick in the teeth for the kick starter backers who didn't get
their uh yeah who didn't get their cooler and and also
recently um after raising a record 34 million on
Kickstarter 3.4 uh 3.4 excuse me uh 3.4
million on Kickstarter Zeno went completely under
will not be shipping uh did not show
show demos during an office tour of the Drone flying is folding and that's it
devastating collapse promised a lot of drones failed to ship almost all of the
promised units and there you
go I it's just it's one of those things where it's like okay a retail price for
a product is designed to cover the costs
of making it okay for one thing and then
to cover the profit margin for the company so what made anyone think and
this is something I've always wondered about what made anyone think
that getting all the funding for your first I don't know let's say 5,000 units
getting all that money to produce them
at a reduced rate compared to what you're pretty sure
you need to sell it for in order to be profitable what made anyone think that
that was going to that was going to Kickstart your company that that was
going to help you pay for you know the office and the employees that you need
to to to ramp up development and bring the product to Market you're effectively
just selling product at a reduced price at a reduced
price so you're not making money so you're selling at at an unsustainable
price and you're Tak already people that will fanatically buy it at the normal
price giving them a discount and those are the people that are actually going
to start running your company and that's your that's your plan to achieve
sustainability so yeah I I wish I wish
the uh I wish the watch luck the blocks watch luck uh 400 millah battery you can
do just like everything else and what we suggested to do with the laser razor so
if any of you guys bought that rip um well that's fine they got refunds oh did
they mhm oh that's cool everyone on Kickstarter I don't know how the Indiegogo campaign is doing though oh
dear well I guess it's not a refund because the campaign didn't finish so
they didn't pay out right okay um just
don't do it just wait for it to come out
if it costs like slightly more money like uh it's not going to be that much it'll
be fine wow the scarp raised 430,000 on
uh on Indiegogo and did get funded so
who knows maybe they'll prove us all wrong but if they do then just buy it
then man yes don't buy it now it's like don't pre-order things we shouldn't have
to say but we do um speaking of not pre-ordering I sure wouldn't pre-order
one of these not that it's particularly expensive LG is partnered with Walmart
to make $10 Android phones we're talking
smartphones for $10 are they great no
but they are undercutting the previously cheapest uh phone the $35 Firefox OS
phone by a significant margin it runs Android 4.4 KitKat uh you get Wi-Fi but
no 4G there is no front-facing camera but you actually do get a Micro SD slot
how many of these do you think are going to sell to people that aren't dealers
oh we were going the same place with that but from opposite angles yes uh I
don't know I mean I could see I could see people who just want like like if my
kid okay if my kid you know broke a
phone and then needed a phone and didn't
have enough allowance saved up for a new phone I'd be like
yo that's your phone they'd be like
really and I'd be like oh really don't break your phone right that's about how
that conversation I could see it being used for that yeah um
um I just we should get one you should
review it I mean it would only cost $10 yeah
I'd be down for that it would actually be pretty interesting like how much does
like compare it to like a note whatever how much does like $1,000 something
dollars get you yeah compared to this worth it the most like insanity
price to performance test ever
um all right so let's uh doing the thing yeah I wanted to do the uh no soon uh
fanatic speaking of crowdfunding although in this case fanatic is not
crowdfunding to raise funds they are just crowdfunding for as a publicity
stunt which is what the more successful crowdfunding uh companies do like that
was what the Pano player did they already had all their funding you think Neil Young needs your you know 100,000
or million dollars or whatever Pano player raised um so
fanatic I I guess this means the end of
their relationship with steel series but they have their own line of gaming
equipment now it would appear as though they have acquired
Funk and uh gone ahead and released well
basically what I I can't quite tell I can't see them that closely but it looks
an awful lot like the existing Funk
lineup um and they're basically saying yep it's
No Nonsense gaming gear
and it's for playing games and their
peripherals I guess so there you have
it yeah so what a weird what a weird move
for an Esports team to get into actually making Hardware then again you look at
sort of us you know going like oh we have a fan now or whatever else I guess
it's like not that bizarre but um I mean
we also are not you know running out and trying to you know maintain that that
brand yeah very very very
interesting um AMD is bundling ba Star
Wars Battlefront with select graphics cards so that is pretty darn big news uh
so that's when you purchase an AMD Radeon R9 Fury graphics card terms and
conditions apply see blah blah blah AMD.com AMD rewards for details so
that's pretty huge if you were planning to buy a graphics card and you were
planning to buy Battlefront to play with your new graphics card because that's
like a what $70 value or something along those lines um and this is pretty
freaking unexpected Apple snuck a USB
3.0 compatible lightning Port into the iPad Pro um I absolutely love this
article um so for one thing the I fix it
tear down I believe yep the iFixit tear down found a USB 3.0 controller so even
though Apple hadn't said anything about it the hardware is in there and then
they they they admitted yes it's in there but and this is great um that blah
blah blah blah blah blah blah blah oh no maybe it was uh maybe it was
a different maybe it was a different article I was reading about it but it was like and and Apple users have been
have been trying their their USB 3 or
their USB 2 Lightning connectors to see if they get the extra
speed they would wouldn't they uh usb3
requires more pins so what I'm assuming is that there's going to be a
significantly modified lightning connector that somehow works with it or
whatever and uh that'll that'll that'll all become more more apparent in the
future so the current USB 2.0 models I
don't know if they'll be backwards or forwards compatible or how the whole thing's going to work but
yeah looks like good stuff I had really hoped that Apple would just go USB
type-c um but it looks like either they're not ready or they're going to
continue down the lightning path if they can find a way to make it uh make it
more interoperable within their own ecosystem which I get totally get so
speaking of things that I get I get to end the show now
yeah but the Afterparty is happening I
have pre-tested we are going to be watching Ultra wide Festival honorable
mentions today see you in the after
party good show today we have 7500 viewers for like a lot of it awesome
yeah awesome everything is
awesome love to sing that song when you follow the rules isn't that how it when
you're part of a team part of a team yeah I'm part of a team
tece not really a very team Tey thing to
call it is it but I did that you
did I'm basically just a shitty person at the end of the day no I have my
redeeming qualities you're just a narcissist
