what so we left and we came back and we're still so early it's still Thursday
w w oh my God we're a whole day early
yeah it's amazing and we have we have water that's cool right this this is the
earliest the W show has ever been yeah
if we were super popular YouTubers I would just smash this on the ground and
then get tons of more views it's not a thing now that's that's a thing yeah
what why but we are just very not super
we're just mostly popular the whole Princess Bride thing mostly popular and
ridiculously on time dead or mostly dead
we're just mostly we're mostly Dead memes um so we are taking the longest
long weekend of all lus Media Group time
minus me except you we're taking Friday and Monday off so we deci deed to stream
on Thursday so that everyone except Luke
who works at a different company now good for him yeah except in this case
never never time off where it's bad for him yeah and you you're working uh
you're still working the Friday right
y Monday off though Monday's a stat isn't it not everywhere oh
right national holidays brilliant half
of my full-time force is not in Canada right so there you go what national
holiday is it I don't know it's something I don't know it's a stat
though is it isn't it is it even have I been fooled by all the other staff I'm
pretty sure it's a stat Canada stat we're horrible
Canadians uh good I'm pretty sure it
isn't good Friday hold on there are 16 more
rows oh God Valentine's Day how is Valentine's Day at St Civic holiday what
is that oh it's BC day ah BC day and then they
all have like their own so that's why we don't know or probably doesn't get the
day off bam oh hey I didn't even realize
that yeah so yeah we're just literally all working it's not even National there
you go so I can't take the day off because no one else is and that's stupid
well it's it's rough but I don't have to like come to work so I can sit in like
my boxers at home and just like work on full plane so it's kind of like that's
nice yeah so it's like it's uh it's like casual day yeah yeah except you can
actually just have your junk hanging out oh yeah cool so it's like very casual
day okay so here's something that I want
to know yeah and we'll get into okay no hold on let's introduce no no we'll get
into the topics a little because this is very important okay all right okay now
we all know PC culture right okay right
everything's politically correct now there's no you can't see I wasn't actually sure if you're talking about
personal computer or politically correct of course I'm not going to ask obvious
questions okay okay and you can't
discriminate based on anything do I have something on my head but what if the
person's a nudest but okay so if you had
have dress code though if you had a c but but hold on but hold on this is what
I want to know this is what I okay look look if you had a casual Friday okay and
you did not have a company dress code which we don't
and somebody showed up naked and there
was no policy in place is it discriminatory it's still technically a
government sanction though is it well yeah because it's indecency oh it is
yeah there's a law for that indecency yeah ah and then there's the flippy back
and forthy law thing where like uh
certain like in in most areas I think
women can't have their tops complet complely off because you can't show your nipples but then in some places you're
alive like on Twitch yes but then I
believe in Vancouver you can't because of what's
her face Linda whatever her name was there was some like nudest protester who
was always all over the place top and then they were just like whatever we don't care and then I think in New York
it's the same thing I think I'm not really sure and there's other areas
where it's okay okay okay okay so like I think you'd be able to like just have
bottoms on in most places got it
it I don't know fascinating I don't actually so we've actually got a lot of
great topics for you today T of them competition is great for the industry
NVIDIA claims 3x performance with a new
driver update for the Titan XP I wonder what prompted that driver update just to
be clear because I really hate when these things are vague because it drives
me freaking insane it's 3x performance in specific applications not games AMD
clarifies why Threadripper uses four d
on the chip what else we got GTX 1070
killer it's a killer RX Vega 56 bench marks leaked
again like everything else from every other company cuz everything gets leaked
CU that's that's advertising right now it leaked it leaked all over the
place oh my god did you do that on
purpose it's really hot so I wouldn't be surprised I actually am feeling pretty
good right now with the ice water down the front of the shirt there you go RX
Vega prices and bundles have been confirmed leaked confirmed leaked
whatever leaked firmed welcome to the news firmly
leaked and it's intro
time it's going to cause some firm leakage on my
side I wish I wasn't drinking I wish you weren't drinking at
work too but what can I do about it casual FR Thursday casual Thursday yeah
no I don't drink oh you drink water yes yes go
Master SP B Savage leaking
jerky a no that's not what it is no oh
boy you know what this is going to be a fun show because it has show it was a
short week yes but it was already a hell
of a week I shot my Fri cinemagraph this
week oh those are cool what what were you doing okay what was going on
hopefully none of this is embargoed or anything but uh MSI actually sent a a
photo crew out here from like I don't
know the the the kind of director the art director was from Sweden and she was
hilarious she was like the most stereotypically Swedish woman I've ever
met with like the hair in the like Curly thing and the flower and freaking
everything she was delightful um um and
you know what she came with complete instructions and didn't fall apart in
two weeks go figure go figure anyway um so
so she had me they actually used a lot of our equipment which was cool made me
feel very professional that like this we had these things available yeah this
baller photo crew that travels around the world you know doing professional
shoots and stuff was like oh yeah that's pretty good equipment maybe we'll use
that they even used our green screen which was pretty cool so they had me set up in front of the green screen and they
had me do like these like these little like actions like I was supposed to be
like like looking off to the side and like cuz the rest of the frame will be
still and if you're not familiar with what a cinemagraph is it's a really cool
on I can try to pick them up while you talk yeah if you want to grab a couple is your screen sharing working yes it is
oh fantastic so most of the frame is still but then selectively there's a
little bit of motion so it's actually an MSI here I'll flip over to so there you
go so she's still the wall still but the but the bubbles blow which is which is
pretty cool uh there's another really cool one um if you go down uh this one's
really good this one's really good yeah so the mug steams but
everything else is everything else is completely still and it's not like like
nothing in here would naturally move but it's it's not like there's mostly no
movement there's actually none except for the steam yeah so what's supposed to
go on in this one is I'm supposed to have the um MSI infinite a gaming PC
like hovering under my hand like some wizard wizard stuff and then I'm
supposed to like look at it and then like slightly glance to the camera but
everything about me will be maybe still or maybe they'll put a little bit of our
movement to like be manipulating this like spinning PC and uh yeah I'm I don't
know it was like a an hour of uh it was
an hour of shooting with just me and then they had like another 2 hours with
the system and with they're actually going to do it in our Workshop set so
I'm not going to be on in like some weird location or something so here's a
uh here's another example it's loading
loading wow uh this is not a great way to go
Twitter way to go Twitter but this is a razor cinemagraph yeah so the idea the
guy doesn't move but like the colors change oh um whoops for on me except it
just it it keeps like loading and freezing because yeah I don't know
either Twitter or our Wi-Fi so it's like that but better yeah yeah pretty much
sweet um but they're cool so that was fun what were you up to this week this
week wow wow um I hired someone wow I
thought I got and then like didn't really get but maybe still he's going to
message me message me later a domain thing
right yeah have you heard from him about it not working I heard from him he said he's going to check his email but he
hasn't done it yet so we'll see uh
uh what did I do I was very busy but I'm trying to remember everything that I
did figured out some weird stuff with some tax things figured out that maybe
we have to go to America um balancing
the pros and cons of just straight up moving to Quebec um there's been a lot of it's
been a lot of weird stuff you'll have to speak French no I
can't this will have to speak French
lordy they will hate you yes especially because my last name I will actually be
lynched anglophones that move over there
and like straight up are like hello Bon
I would like to order waffles the waffles like no they're
going to hate you I'm going to have to I'm going to have to like get all my
food delivered from Amazon or just buy it at Costco and literally never say a
word I've gotten through certain foreign countries that way but it's like
pretending I'm mute and just being like I know how all this stuff works and just
like being obvious about things and then just never talking and just it it works
it's fine K back
no oh my God is that is that
the French yes oh my God no oh man but
like yeah okay seriously right now and there's some theories and a prime
actually has a very good always speak English you are stupid English people at
lonus Tech yeah yeah some of you do yeah
if you go to Montreal sure but you make your way out into the BBS and it's a
whole other story yeah so um I I've been
looking through rums and a very very large like 75 80 85% of the strong
resumés are from Montreal or Quebec or
or Quebec City or or Verdun or wherever
there's quite a few different areas but it's all in Quebec to some degree a huge
percentage of it interesting and not even just programmers a lot of different
talent that I'm looking for seems to be over there and English speaking ones are
moving to the states to make more money a prime theory is the frankophones don't
want to move ah oh
oh I need a cigarette a really long one
so like like really good programmers
from other parts of the country that are English main speaking either like move
to the states or everyone else moved to the states so they stay here and get paid ludicrous amounts of M
right fascinating all right yeah I don't
know pre-recorded yes uh technically no
we are actually very live right now we were thinking of spoofing you guys and
just like playing this on Friday and then we were like
H YOLO whatever y all right so um should we do an actual
Tech topic here I mean we can I mean this one's pretty interesting mazore
settings on the Forum was the original poster for this the Titan typo is that
supposed to be Max settings I I don't even you know what maybe it's like a
maybe it's a Star Wars reference okay but isn't that Moz which
doesn't make any sense but um I I you
know what just whatever um did I just
correct you on a Star Wars thing I have very
much and very deep Star Wars knowledge I
know none of it is Canon anymore oh and
it's all old okay yeah all right you
want to talk you want to talk Grand Admiral thrawn Mary Jade fine gral thr's
Canon is he Canon yeah shut up he got brought back in oh hell's yeah the new
animated series Rebels is like is that
that story line gr Emerald Thon thank goodness cuz like out of all the like
Legions of Star Wars writers Timothy Zan has got to be no he's super stoked right
now because it's like a show about his character that's fantastic yeah and it's
like actually really cool because it brings a more dynamic character into the Star Wars Universe did they somewhat
stick to the I see I'm I like B watching
a show so you haven't started it no okay got it and I no one we don't want know
there yeah okay okay all right and like
okay I have heard from the writer that he really appreciates the depiction of
his character so they must have stuck with how he was fantastic well I am
stoked on that I you know what's another one that's said all the books are Canon
no no they're super not um I would okay I we'll get back to Titan X in a minute
um because this is more important uh you know what's another really great
opportunity for um for for for
adaptations to film is have you read the tales from the Moss Eisley Cantina no or
Cantina whatever it is Cantina I think um really good it's just a collection of
short stories in fact I think it's from a bunch of different writers but like some well-known ones like I think
Kevin for Star Wars sort of it's It's The Back stories of like everyone who's
in there oh that's cool yeah it's it's actually so that's how people know about
like the doctor and stuff cuz like I know some of those like factoids but I
have that makes a lot more sense I've been trying to figure out like what book would this be in yeah that makes way
more sense yeah so it's actually like they're they're really good and there's
such a variety from from short story to he's in Rogue one Dron no uh the the the
crazy doctor guy that oh yeah what's his face the guy who's I have the death
sentence on 12 systems you mean on 12
systems Mac PC Linux Xbox PlayStation 4
what are you talking about that has driven me crazy like and that that's the
kind of stuff that I probably would have fixed in a special edition right right
right fix one word and all of a sudden this sentence makes any sense that dude
is in Rogue one it's like a weird Cameo he like slides past the screen and
there's been some controversy there because like the town that they're in
blows the hell up so everyone's like how did he make it or I guess no that's
after yeah so that's it's no yeah so he
must have gone there and then died well
he has the death sentence on 12 systems so guess that got taken care of but
um oh yeah so I'm okay okay okay fine
we'll talk we'll talk about this basically NVIDIA posted a blog post uh
Titan XP enables new levels of performance for Creative professionals
our latest driver available today delivers three times more performance
and applications like Maya so you can create and design faster than ever
before and when you're done you can rip through Battlefield 1 at 100 frames per
second the best part is it's available from NVIDIA.com yeah that is the best part um yeah not GeForce experience
although it's also available there here's why okay while I appreciate the
gesture this is why um no competition is
a big loadable crap because NVIDIA to
their credit has actually done a reasonably good job with the tech
technology available to them of iterating and driving graphics
performance faster and faster and faster in basically the complete absence of any
competitor over the last few years when it comes to gaming yeah where
they have cut back and they have scaled
back especially and to be clear I have my criticisms of NVIDIA U the fact that
we now get each generation of gpus as
two generations of g-forces with the the the SEC the cut down card as a flagship
and then we get the real one as a Next Generation Flagship okay so I've got my
issues which is super frustrating which is frustrating clear but I understand
the business reasons why they're doing it and it's not that bad they are still
developing new gpus even if that development is driven by professional
use and the data center our title is LTX
2017 oh is it uh can you fix or do you
want me to fix oh blood um
okay uh the wi show you need to change
what category we're into news and talk uh Fridays at
:30 Pacific is yeah that's okay we'll
just leave it and the category shows talk shows talk shows Bippity boity done
thank you viewer okay all right remember
the first Titan yeah was actually
suitable for workstation use yeah so it
was actually capable of less cut down
fp64 performance compared to the gaming
cards it was more like a Quadro in that sense since then not only Titans but
also quadros have not had the same
functionality enabled compared to their Tesla counterparts and then in the case
of the very high in Tesla GP 100 that that one has excellent uh High Precision
performance as well so this is basically NVIDIA like re unlocking something that
they locked away because they didn't have to deal with
it which is
frustrating but also I'm glad that we have it like I'm I'm happy it happened
I'm sad that it had to Happ this looks like a blatant response to Vega and the
rumors around Vega are that regardless of gaming performance
it looks like it's going to be a pretty powerful professional platform which is
like weird but cool I can also see why
they're doing it you know like we have a video coming soon about AMD's Vega based
supercomputer so it's one peda flop on a single rack W and um I mean that is
between like between Mining and like
professional like research use AMD could probably more common mhm
AMD could probably sell every graphics card they could possibly
make that's great which is which is which is great um cuz they need to cuz
they really do need to um and I forget where I was going
with that right so that so right so it's not a huge surprise to me that that's
driving their design yeah it's just it hasn't been very
common in in those style of cards yes
all right right so uh let's move let's do one more topic um and then we'll just
end the show early no I'm no I'm kidding then we'll do ads so AMD clarifies why
Threadripper is using four dyes so this
was posted by diin on the Forum let go ahead and pull this up cuz check that
out there's a delited Threadripper this doesn't make any sense because epic goes
up to 32 course and also sits on a very
similar package with four exposed dieses
like this if you were to delit it so why would Threadripper also need four
because it doesn't have an eight channel memory controller like epic does so it
wouldn't need the two memory controllers
per die and it turns out that what's going
on here is because Threadripper only goes up to 16 cores what we're actually
seeing is two fully enabled dyes and
then two of them are just dummies right
and diagonal that's right so these are supposed to help spread out the heat
load according to uh you know what will give us more better heat dissipation to
our coolers well more yeah evenly dissipate so instead of it being on that
diagonal it's kind of more around better for coolers a lot better for coolers and
uh the other purpose of the two dies is actually structural so they prevent
imbalance and allow for simple cooler mounting without any chance of damaging
the CPU they are not active they're not like failed ryzen cores or anything like
that they don't even contain working transistors so there's no hope of being
able to like unlock them or something they are just dummy course AMD also
didn't want to create a new socket for Threadripper so they like found some
ways to take benefit from having these dummy core things and we're like cool
sounds good designing a socket is a fairly significant undertaking um aside
from electrically and it's really annoying yeah not not for AMD it's
really annoying for everyone else there's this whole new platform new boards new mounting holes new mounting
holes you're you're not going to be able to transfer Hardware as much it's going to be harder to have stuff on hand if
you're swapping stuff out in like a very high availability many server type of
situation it's annoying for board Partners who have to make more things
now it's annoying for everyone on the entire stack yep and you know you look
at something like USB micro b that should give you some idea how hard it is
to design a robust reliable interface
yeah and so the more of those that AMD has to build the better
Y Cool all right oh so
sponsors yeah what do we got here
sponsors oh really Cooler Master is one of our sponsors today Cooler Master
featuring keyboards covered in
dust because our entire Warehouse has
been under construction for the LA yeah don't do that why would you do a bad
idea
oh jeez what is wrong with you I'm sorry
so the cooler master master keys Pro comes in different sizes with white
lighting or RGB to suit your needs while
the pro s comes in white and RGB oh wow
the the pro s White and the pro mrgb are the newest editions to their lineup they
complete The Cooler Master keyboard profile or portfolio wow I'm terrible at
this you got it whatever Cooler Master makes good mechanical keyboards they're
great for typing they're great for gaming I have basically no complaints
they've got bright LED lighting including the AA availability of RGB
minimalistic kind of design and the interior has been completely redesigned
to fit Cherry MX switches as well as LEDs uh the master keys Pro white M and
L have white LED backlighting and if you're more if you're more into a
brighter clear white backlight versus just changing your RGB one to White
which doesn't look quite as satisfying yeah we've got bunch of different LED
lighting modes macro recording and four profile keys with easy to use software
basically they're good stuff you can check them out at the link below right
about coolermaster comom productline keyboards wow we really need
a vanity URL for that yeah oh cool oh my
yeah this one's got a detachable keyboard as well or detachable detachable keyboard detachable uh cable
as well nice which is really nice not usually usually it doesn't matter at all
but if you're packing up your keyboard to take it somewhere um where there's
actually a risk of damaging the connector in your bag or whatever it's nice to be able to take which I have had
to do recently and it is it is actually
quite nice yeah next up we've got
Squarespace square space
Squarespace Squarespace is the place to
go if you want to create your own place to go yeah with Squarespace you can take
any one of their gorgeous templates and they've got a lot of them now actually
that would be legit okay I'm just going to I'm going to cut you off here for a second I'll let you continue they should
let finish but they should they should take that as a
slogan the place to go if you want to make your own place to go it sounds kind
of like uh Like Home Depot sort of but Squarespace is it not
it's kind of like the like a Home Depot of websites yeah I don't know if I'm
allowed to say that no whatever anyway
you pick one of their gorgeous templates and just for 12 bucks a month off
starting at 12 bucks a month and you get a free domain if you buy it for the year

it's all cloud-based it is super reliable and your site will look great
and Beautiful on any device whether it's a laptop desktop or mobile phone have
you even seen them on SmartWatches before really yeah and it was like that
can't be that great I mean it was a website on a smartwatch so it wasn't
that great but for a website it did pretty good
every site includes a free online store with their Commerce module they've got

sponsor Savage jerky which which uh I
ate all the Mojo after the show last week so I have no Mojo do you know Str
mape you know Str strr map yeah I know map so mape bought a bunch of these yeah
even though he's from New Zealand and ended up spending like just about as
much on shipping as he did for the jerky
so he's a crazy guy man we'll we'll see what he thinks of it and he has a crazy
spice tolerance so he's going to try some of the like really really
spicy what kind of punishment do you want today because honestly most of the
uh most of the pretty tame stuff has been
eaten we do have some traditional you want some traditional you can go with
the traditional I'll take it this time yes I'm going for the what oh Mojo
habanero yeah oh is that like the regular Mojo okay no I'll take the hot
one I want to I want to try this one Mojo habanero is the one where it's like
he here you pick whatever you want right in the spice profile for me where it's
good if I just don't go way too fast so three levels or three bars three bars of
spice okay I want to try this one um so
Savage jerky the jerky made with the best ingredients the best without
nitrates or preservatives the goal was to create a snack that's full of flavor
they definitely achieved
that but it isn't bad for you I'll go with ghost
pepper um we've got notes here about
what people seem to love I like the maple Buffalo bacon and I think Mojo is
my new favorite Mojo is really good Mojo and traditional are both really good mhm
and I think they're their new flavors aren't they but if you like spicy there's like ghost pepper and like
Carolina Reaper and like all that kinds of crazy
stuff I need to wait until my first one's down yeah to get acclimated to
this one but this one tastes really good too oh exactly yeah Mojo habanero also
quite nice um so that's pretty much it use
offer code LT to save 10% at Savage jerky.com
and now I'll be eating this for the rest of the show sorry in advance everyone which one
did you have today ghost pepper oh the ghost pepper is brutal yeah it's all
right yeah everything's fine this one's
really nice full plane um oh yeah what do we have oh you know what no I don't
have it ready yet let me get it ready first that's cool first up we've got a
leak that's right leakas has left the
building entered the building entered
this was posted by Mr troll over on the Forum and the original article here is
from tweak Town AMD Radeon RX Vega
56 benchmarks have been leaked and it looks like according to the leak it may
prove to be a GTX 1070
killer which would be good for them cuz the 1070 is a very nice
card is a a little bit too hot yeah but I'll I'll get i'll get
adjusted I find that one like if you take it slow is really good yeah I'm
going to have some more after um so Battlefield 1 has it beating the GTX
1070 Civ 6 same thing Doom apparently
same thing and uh Cod whatever I is that
infinite infite Warfare Warfare okay I don't know why they're benchmarking that but sure sure okay anyway it looks like
it actually looks like uh anywhere from
10 to even as much as almost 15% faster in some of those benchmarks so that
would be great news for team red although I don't know how much stake and
do we know our stock to put in this and do we know the price um
$3.99 it is rumored to be $3.99 in fact we have all the rumors for Vega pricing
and we we go through those in a minute so and okay how much is a 1070 right now
let's see GTX more about 450 450 yeah um
so the benchmarks were run at 1440p Battlefield 1 at Ultra ziv 6 at Ultra
with four times M uh multi sample anti-aliasing Doom it ultra um with tsaa
and it is rumored to be coming in at 3.99 now so yeah you can get 450 usually
closer to like 470 480 and some at$
499 that will be pretty killer um we
don't have a rumored release date though for though for that I don't think
so we'll have to wait and see when it actually shows up right other prices
though we do have as well so this was
posted by Buck goop on the
Forum and this slide here leaked by wccf
Tech says that it will be available August 2017 and there will be a Vega
64 a Vega 64 limited edition this we
knew about this we talked about when we did our unveiling at TX so that's with a
brushed metal shroud and there will be a Vega 64 liquid
cooled uh what else we got here is that just a lighter colored brush metal
shroud on the liquid cool it looks like it it might not even be lighter right I
don't know why they went so light yeah nobody does silver right
now yeah it's like they want the reference card to clash with
everything um okay so here's the room
pricing the Radeon Aqua pack which is
supposed to include the liquid card with
um with what probably with the rest of the equipment you need to run it I'm
assuming I have to see what's rumored um no but
up Vega Vega Vega Vega Vega Vega spec
spec specs reference model starts at uh
$4.99 apparently for the 64 limited
edition 295 watt card
wow wow you
guys I do I do want to say if you can scroll down for a second whoa the liquid
cooled one is apparently 350
watt wow AMD what are you doing over there
buddy ah okay sorry what were you pointing at uh just the fact that this
is just like a thing that's averaged now 12.7
Tera flops yeah that's crazy like I still remember when we like just barely
passed one and everyone was like holy crap wow a tera flop on a GPU holy
smokes um so what else we got here for
rumors so the bundles will apparently include discounts on select ryzen CPU
and motherboard combos select Samsung free sync displays and two game titles
Wolfenstein 2 and prey 2 that's really cool um the the game part is actually
surprisingly less cool than the other ones but would you you pay an extra
however much for a bundle oh wait no this okay right the
the packs aren't rumored right we I I've already made a video about that okay I
can never tell what I'm supposed to know and not supposed to know so I do know
that okay but tell me this so what's your thought process on it then cuz it this the first time I've heard it looks
like the pack adds about $100 to the card versus if you were able to just buy
it Standalone but then what's the discounts on the other stuff the disc
you pay an extra $100 and you get a
discount on other stuff but what's the discount cuz if I'm going to buy that
stuff anyways oh you get 100 bucks off a ryzen CPU and motherboard combo um you
get up to $200 off a free sync display so if I was going to buy a monitor and
that CPU and motherboard anyways then you're thrilled yeah but were you as an
Enthusiast I don't I don't know because the 64 version is only going to be
available at launch with bundles oh
really okay how does this bundles thing work or pack or whatever like what are
you actually buying when you buy the pack you just pay1 extra dollar and you get discount cards yes what you just get
like little paper from thinking it's a great idea to being super mad like like
that it's amazing you just get like little paper discount cards or like in
an email or something digital
yeah and presumably based on how promos
like this typically worked at the retailer I used to work at you'd
probably have to use it like right
away okay so now what do you think that's just
weird so the r as a consumer I would just wait until I don't have to do that
anymore okay can I explain the rationale though unless for some reason I did want
to buy that specific combination which might happen uh someone who's just now getting
into PC gaming I could totally see that as a thing okay so the rationale is that
they don't want coin miners to just snap them all
up and if I had to guess I would say
that this is AMD's way of punishing coin
miners just charging them more since the
value like the the the use secondhand value of the cards will be higher than
the freaking retail price AMD might as well take that money and those people
won't care about monitors or games or CPU motherboard bundles and so it's
their way of punishing Miners and giving an even better deal to
anyone building a new pc isn't that crashing though crashing like miners
aren't buying as many cards right now that's I I'm not sure to be perfectly
honest with you I don't know where the whole mining scene is at um what it's on
the up it's on the up again again yeah
all right well apparently mining is back so so so that's question away for like a
week or two and new
CS really really good okay so now that
you know that now what do you think I I
it's just weird as a consu as as someone who's buying a new computer I would look
at that and be like especially someone who's not into Mining and has no idea
what it is I would look at this setup and just be like
what the hell is going
on and that's like the majority of the people that are going to be looking at
this just to be completely honest right the majority of the people that are looking at this are going to go
mining what or like I heard my friend
talking about that why do I care I just want to buy graph I just don't get it cuz like my kids don't have graphics
cards so why do miners need all these graphics cards
wow wow all right that's like pretty high up
there for bad in other news tape storage
yeah the media that just keeps on T um
this was posted on the Forum by WM groom AK the original article here is from RS
Technica IBM and Sony have figured out how to cram 330 tab into a tiny tape
cartridge sputtered magnetic layer lubricant and new heads enable 200 gabit
per second oh excuse me per inch density
yeah per second I was like Whoa man yeah that' be some fast tape yo um so this is
um yeah in a so this would be 330 tabt in a palm-sized cartridge the world's
largest largest hard drives by contrast which are about twice the physical size
of the tape are the 6 60 terb seate SSD
or 12 tbte Hitachi helium filed hard
drive pretty cool um the largest
commercially available tapes Only Store about 15
terab so uh when it's eventually commercialized these new cartridges will
be significantly more expensive because of the tape's complex manufacturing
process likewise a new tape drive will be required but we'd only need like two
to back up our entire paby project yeah
cuz there's some redundancy it's not actually a cabit of um addressable space
yeah all right this is kind of a bummer this is posted by Morgan
MLG um coffee lake so that's Intel's
upcoming rumored to be up to six core
mainstream processors will apparently
not not
work m m mute mute mute uh yeah got this
will not work with z270
yeah done D mind you this shouldn't be a surprise
to anyone who's been following Intel's um processor motherboard Cadence over
the last few years because z170 and z270
same socket okay the chips that work in
either work in both as long as there's BIOS compatibility it's usually two gens
and it's usually two gens on the mainstream so and there was probably a
significant reworking that was required in order to put a six core on the
mainstream it's interesting though that right now it's not possible for people
during the biggest war Intel has had in
a while because they haven't had a war in a while um that both sides would have
to upgrade their whole platform because right now if you if
this happened a year ago you wouldn't have had to upgrade your platform right
Intel fans would have been able to buy the new chip just buy the new six core
and that would have been the excuse I don't want to move to the other side because I'm just going to buy a chip not
a whole chip and motherboard combo it's going to be way cheaper for me there's
no way it's financially viable for me to invest in a whole platform now it's
whole platform versus whole platform
so normal Cadence or not I think it
helps AMD a lot that that's happening rumor though this won't help AMD if it's
true by friendly non- murdering sort on the
Forum that's kind of a that's kind of a cool name uh the original article here
is from Guru 3D there's a rumored core
I3 8300 with four cores and eight
threads which would make it basically equivalent to like a 6700k cuz it's
apparently clocked at like 4 GHz I don't know if this is just someone
messing around with like Windows registry nonsense to get this to show up
but it it it doesn't look like it because there are also um here what's uh
oh wait no yeah it's all it's all Windows capture so I'm not aware
personally of a way to do that like off the top of my head but it seems like something could beit it like
disgustingly easily but yeah this is according to screenshots on a Chinese
Forum I find this very hard to believe
and I would think it's more likely for it to be some weird apparently yes it's
fake yeah yeah I uh that's like super
low res it's pretty crap um but there
you go there's a rumor uh oh we got featured on on RS
Technica RS Technica which was pretty sick so I just want to self-
congratulate over that um neat and they
wrote up a little kind of like write up thing essentially a summary yep Jake
thinks that we should have a written site to accompany our videos I disagree
I think we went down that path Y and then we're like wow wow this is hard and
there's no money in it yeah um we discovered fortunately before we
invested our whole livelihood in print
online written we sites yeah that that's
a bad idea um what else we got okay I'm
going to I'm yeah I got one more topic for you okay okay so let me Pitch it to
you let me Pitch it to you while while okay let me Pitch it to you while I um
while I go through the float plan stuff you can think about it okay so this is a
new segment that I'm going to call what's
worse so I know I've already read it I know I
know but I got I gotta hold on hold on okay
so this kind of thing happens especially to some people but what's worse dropping
your phone in a public toilet that's
empty or in your own toilet after you
peed in
it okay now hold on in other news we
have some exclusive content over on Floatplane that you guys will want to
watch yes Techquickie what's the difference between parallel and serial
the fastest ultrawide gaming monitor but
at what cost we can see thumbnails too w
wow that is a cancerous thumbnail look at it go um there's exclusive content
mezzanine update number 12 almost there
Techquickie wire PC video game ports so
bad so bad the worst um LT the brightest
monitor we've ever seen Dell's HDR
display AMD let me build their new ad
Vega super computer which they actually
did uh what else we got more exclusive
stuff LTX behind the scenes Vlog before the show opened a lot of comments on
that um what else we got here I think I
think this one's live already I'm not sure July 28th no h why is Hotel Wi-Fi
so slow that's a pretty good Techquickie Pippin Apple's only ever made
console is still not on YouTube yeah that's still not on YouTube so we did a
reaction to Apple's forgotten game console one of our longer videos mhm
yeah actually it's really long 16 or 17 minutes long and it's one of the rare uh
actually featuring Luke videos these days yeah and I think there's one more
that I'm missing cuz uh there's been a lot of simultaneous releases lately cuz
all the rise and Threadripper and all the VGA and all that kind of stuff so
yeah uh I think what goes up I think there's some good stuff going up this
weekend we're going to have our unboxing from LTX of the Razer toaster okay so if
you guys aren't uh subscribed to float playing already then uh I'll go ahead
and copy that link into the video description for you because it's pretty
sick Early Access better streaming video quality and of course it helps us keep
this whole show going around here so uh thank you in
advance um okay so so I don't think it's
that simple okay of a question okay so
do you need some clarification yes okay so the public toilet doesn't have any
obvious like buildup in it okay but it's
a public toilet and you weren't what's
again this is another thing though what's the water level because a lot of
home toilets have a very high water level and a lot of public toilets have a
very low water level the phone is submerged Sub in either case yeah the
phone submerge you got to put your you got to go you got to go above the wrist
bone deep in either
one it's an interesting question I think
from from reading the twitch chat it
seems like most people I could be totally wrong but when I looked at it it
seemed like most people were saying good straw pole good idea seemed like most
people were saying public toilet really because it's
clean actually I actually disagree
exactly and my big thing for it
is very narrow amount of sources of
bacteria and other junk
compared to extremely wide range amount of sources of other bacteria interesting
so you're going full science on your answer here not just like oh I'm more
comfortable with my own pee and my family's pee yeah versus like a lot of
my own pee versus Trace Amounts of
somebody else's P Trace Amounts of a huge mix of other people's stuff and
more aggressive more uh resilient bacterias might still be in there for
sure mhm but that could also be people saying of your own toilet
agreed but it's still me it's stuff that
went through me it's stuff that's like around me and it's just going to go on my hand y y it's probably okay okay and
I would do I would do the trick where you flush it first and then you grab it
and I would probably grab like a bunch of toilet paper and then grab it well no
no for the sake of argument you can't go get a rubber glove like you have to
toilet paper is literally right there you don't have like you don't have a
waterproof phone you have a pixel okay yeah you got to get in there and get it
fast yeah I'd probably flush it flushing
happens really quickly yeah but flushing also circulates the water there's a
worse chance of it penetrating a membrane or getting de into pixel so
it's screwed because they use cloth Liners in their like speakers and stuff
instead of metal like most phones did you know about that no there's people
that have like reached into here to try to clean out their like speaker Grill
thing and torn it oh that's a shame
yeah it's it's kind of a mess all right well we've got the results we've got the result I'm really excited for the pixel
2 am I doing that review I have no idea I'm
down most of you prefer what if you flush your phone
down whoa no you can't do that how big
is or how tiny is your
phone I'm very surprised all right well
what what do you think it's your question
I'm I'm going I'm going home toilet I'm going P home toilet why though um for me
it's a purely emotional thing I don't have a scientific basis for you want to touch other people's stuff I just I I
find other people's stuff so remember I'm coming at this as a
parent part of my daily life is touching other people's pee and poo yeah so like
my comfort level with that over the last 5 years has gotten a lot higher but like
with your own crew but that's like with my kids yeah whereas someone else I'm
just like oh man that's yeah and like I
at least know what the cleaning schedule of my own toilets is whereas like
someone else's it could look clean but like might be clean just cuz like a lot
of people been going through there and they take the stuff away yeah like I
don't know man so so that's where I'm at on that that's where I'm out on that
yeah all right well thank you guys very much for tuning in we will see you again
next week same Time same
no oh right on but on Friday at the
proper time on the proper Channel this is the proper Channel yeah okay bye bye
oh right the intro
outro are you surprised by the results of that a little actually I thought
people would prefer not to put their hand in pea
water someone said it's Friday I guess maybe somewhere Friday Friday got to get
down on Friday something something something for the weekend weekend Friday
Friday
