00:00:29,679 --> 00:00:36,239
that yeah he's been like cavorting about in asia yeah perfectly innocent though

8
00:00:35,360 --> 00:00:44,160

10
00:00:44,160 --> 00:00:50,320
taiwan um anyways let's roll the intro

11
00:00:55,920 --> 00:00:59,239
oh boy

12
00:01:02,239 --> 00:01:05,519
oh man

13
00:01:05,519 --> 00:01:09,040
this is not gonna be a good show

14
00:01:09,920 --> 00:01:14,640
we are off to a real rough start here

15
00:01:13,200 --> 00:01:19,119
yeah yeah yeah but that's okay because it's not

16
00:01:17,200 --> 00:01:24,960
about how you start it's about the big finish

17
00:01:24,960 --> 00:01:30,159
would you believe i'm trying to hire a new writing staff

18
00:01:30,640 --> 00:01:36,720
would you believe that this is like part of the process like how many dick jokes

19
00:01:34,960 --> 00:01:41,280
you can come up with oh and during the interview no no definitely not there's

20
00:01:39,520 --> 00:01:45,759
there are bonus points for saying that they think i'm funny though only one

21
00:01:43,040 --> 00:01:49,520
person did it today so um you know i want to commend that one individual one

22
00:01:47,600 --> 00:01:54,159
person on their honesty oh yes yeah i want to commend them on

23
00:01:51,759 --> 00:01:57,600
their honesty because everyone else they're like closet thinking i'm funny

24
00:01:55,920 --> 00:02:01,040
because i know everyone thinks i'm funny of course yeah not so much all right

25
00:01:59,040 --> 00:02:05,119
fine fair that's fine yeah no i'm actually finally um

26
00:02:03,360 --> 00:02:08,879
finishing up the writer search that i started four months

27
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:13,440
ago or something like that i've been traveling so much that i just have not

28
00:02:10,720 --> 00:02:17,520
had time to do it properly and i would rather

29
00:02:14,959 --> 00:02:22,480
just have it take too long and go through everyone fairly versus you

30
00:02:19,840 --> 00:02:27,200
know trying to spread it out over um you know many weeks and then like the

31
00:02:25,599 --> 00:02:30,000
people that i evaluated at the beginning maybe i'm not using the same standards

32
00:02:28,720 --> 00:02:34,239
as the one at the end like i wanted to be able to sit down and like do it in big chunks

33
00:02:32,800 --> 00:02:39,120
um and so we've uh started our interviews

34
00:02:36,879 --> 00:02:42,080
we're not quite done interviews yet but um we're looking to make a decision

35
00:02:40,640 --> 00:02:46,640
pretty soon so we're going to be increasing the writing side writing team

36
00:02:43,920 --> 00:02:49,680
size here by like 40

37
00:02:48,000 --> 00:02:54,319
60 i don't know how many people you hire math is not a strong point two to three

38
00:02:51,760 --> 00:02:57,519
oh wow i thought this was one position no

39
00:02:55,360 --> 00:02:59,599
holy cow yeah two to three are you

40
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:03,280
that i've are you expanding channels

41
00:03:01,760 --> 00:03:08,800
because that's a lot of writers to add on so we haven't talked about anything

42
00:03:05,760 --> 00:03:10,480
yet okay but um actually so you don't

43
00:03:08,800 --> 00:03:13,120
attend linus media group monday morning meetings anymore because you are not an

44
00:03:12,000 --> 00:03:17,519
employee of language i still get the emails and i poke through them sometimes just to make sure like the power isn't

45
00:03:16,159 --> 00:03:22,480
going to go out or something without me knowing i i gave i actually gave like a

46
00:03:19,840 --> 00:03:25,840
big a big speech on monday so i was i was talking about um oh wait should we

47
00:03:24,800 --> 00:03:29,120
talk about some of the topics we're going to have today or should i just get right in you know what i'll get right

48
00:03:27,920 --> 00:03:33,120
into this we'll talk about topics in a minute yeah um it's pretty on point so i

49
00:03:31,120 --> 00:03:37,200
was talking about um some of the changes that have been taking place on youtube

50
00:03:34,879 --> 00:03:41,280
lately and how they've affected our channels yeah yeah um you know youtube

51
00:03:39,040 --> 00:03:45,680
won't admit anything um i've never i've had correspondence with them not just

52
00:03:43,280 --> 00:03:49,680
with my partner manager who is quite a senior member of the team and who i i

53
00:03:47,760 --> 00:03:54,400
believe when he tells me you know nothing changes or nothing has changed

54
00:03:52,239 --> 00:03:57,840
or that it's machine learning and nothing discreet was changed but that

55
00:03:56,080 --> 00:04:01,680
doesn't mean that it isn't always learning and always changing

56
00:03:59,519 --> 00:04:05,439
and i've even gone higher up the food chain than that

57
00:04:03,360 --> 00:04:10,799
and everyone insists we didn't change anything we tweaked no dials but i just

58
00:04:08,159 --> 00:04:15,360
i i have a hard time i have a hard time buying it because we know from the other

59
00:04:12,879 --> 00:04:20,560
things that youtube says like i went to brandcast and youtube's talking about um

60
00:04:19,519 --> 00:04:25,520
you know um raising authoritative voices

61
00:04:24,160 --> 00:04:29,600
when it comes to trying to make sure that they're a platform that promotes credible

62
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:35,680
information but can you raise an authoritative voice

63
00:04:32,639 --> 00:04:37,280
without suppressing yeah another one

64
00:04:35,680 --> 00:04:41,280
you're saying yes you can no i'm agreeing with you i see yeah because no

65
00:04:39,360 --> 00:04:46,000
you can't yeah you can't elevate something without pushing something else

66
00:04:44,000 --> 00:04:50,000
down that's just the way it works especially when sorry to jump in here

67
00:04:47,440 --> 00:04:54,560
for a second but youtube kind of at this point like has the population like they

68
00:04:52,960 --> 00:04:58,960
don't really have a ton of expanding more to do other than people getting

69
00:04:56,639 --> 00:05:02,400
internet or people getting to the age where they can watch their own youtube

70
00:05:00,720 --> 00:05:07,919
fun fact they're no longer going to report on unique uh unique visitor

71
00:05:05,919 --> 00:05:12,800
increases anymore interesting you know why because they're already over two billion

72
00:05:11,919 --> 00:05:18,000
a month oh my gosh so like yeah so like who do you go for now

73
00:05:16,080 --> 00:05:20,960
nothing that they can do can sound impressive and sound like growth to

74
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:26,400
their shareholders anymore so they're just like this is have everyone we're doing great we're just like we can't

75
00:05:24,639 --> 00:05:32,080
talk about it anymore though because like a point one percent improvement

76
00:05:29,680 --> 00:05:35,120
in fairness to us it's still 20 million more people but it's like it's not

77
00:05:34,080 --> 00:05:40,080
impressive yeah right yeah so like if you're if you're taking this platform that like

78
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:43,120
yes it's expanding don't get me wrong here i understand that but if you're

79
00:05:41,759 --> 00:05:47,360
taking this platform that has like this kind of set amount of users if you're i

80
00:05:45,919 --> 00:05:53,039
understand it's not how it works just hold on um if you start pumping someone

81
00:05:50,720 --> 00:05:56,400
you have to reduce push for other people there's only

82
00:05:54,240 --> 00:05:59,680
so many eyeballs and you know there's been problems on youtube i

83
00:05:58,160 --> 00:06:04,080
understand there's more eyeballs all the time that have been identified uh like

84
00:06:02,160 --> 00:06:09,360
the black hole thing with conspiracy theories or flat earth or fake moon

85
00:06:06,560 --> 00:06:13,520
landing or anti-vaxxing or whatever else you know there's there's things that are

86
00:06:11,360 --> 00:06:18,840
relatively low-hanging fruit um that

87
00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:23,600
hold on a second one moment please

88
00:06:20,560 --> 00:06:23,600
technical difficulties

89
00:06:27,520 --> 00:06:34,960
i'm just checking to see if uh okay cool so in february youtube demonetized

90
00:06:32,479 --> 00:06:39,199
anti-vaxx channels uh facebook youtube to suppress anti-vaxxer content this was

91
00:06:36,880 --> 00:06:41,759
from pcmag and march 7th good so there's other sources so i don't have to be the

92
00:06:40,720 --> 00:06:46,560
source for this so youtube is suppressing anti-vaxx content um

93
00:06:44,720 --> 00:06:49,360
now so oh no so there's certain things that i

94
00:06:48,000 --> 00:06:53,520
completely agree with because that's incredibly dangerous um anti-vaxx

95
00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:57,520
content not suppressing it because anti-vaxx content is super stupid

96
00:06:56,080 --> 00:07:02,560
um so there's things that i agree with

97
00:06:59,919 --> 00:07:06,800
but there's also potential collateral damage so one of the problems that was

98
00:07:04,400 --> 00:07:10,880
identified on social media in general not just on youtube is that once you

99
00:07:09,039 --> 00:07:14,800
watch like if you go okay for lulls you know you want you

100
00:07:13,440 --> 00:07:19,120
show a friend some stupid tai lopez video because

101
00:07:17,520 --> 00:07:22,560
you're like that guy you know the guy with the

102
00:07:20,560 --> 00:07:27,360
knowledge you know remember that guy and they're like no no i'm like this guy

103
00:07:25,599 --> 00:07:34,400
all of a sudden you're you're recommended your ads it's just full of

104
00:07:31,120 --> 00:07:35,520
all those bloody get rich quick youtube

105
00:07:34,400 --> 00:07:40,080
gurus and it's so obnoxious okay so there's

106
00:07:38,000 --> 00:07:44,400
this problem that's been identified in online on social media in general with

107
00:07:42,080 --> 00:07:48,560
echo chambers and with one search for a given topic all of a

108
00:07:47,039 --> 00:07:53,680
sudden just you might slightly be interested in this

109
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:57,360
yeah or not just interested even just curious and all of a sudden it's it's

110
00:07:55,680 --> 00:08:02,879
put in front of your face and when you're when you're not as media savvy

111
00:07:59,759 --> 00:08:04,879
you might just see something on facebook

112
00:08:02,879 --> 00:08:09,199
and go oh it's credible it's printed in black and white like it's

113
00:08:06,319 --> 00:08:13,360
it's the craziest thing in the world but that same

114
00:08:10,639 --> 00:08:16,960
just because something is printed in the in black and white doesn't mean that

115
00:08:14,800 --> 00:08:20,240
it's true that same education that's been

116
00:08:17,919 --> 00:08:27,280
trying that people have been trying to to give to people since the freaking

117
00:08:22,520 --> 00:08:29,120
1800s is still a big deal today and so

118
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:32,080
so what happens is you end up in this in this kind of this

119
00:08:30,400 --> 00:08:37,760
death spiral of fake moon landing flat earth whatever

120
00:08:35,120 --> 00:08:41,680
just from watching one stupid video and a lot of the people that perpetuate

121
00:08:39,760 --> 00:08:46,560
these conspiracy theories speak in a way that may not sound

122
00:08:43,760 --> 00:08:50,959
authoritative to you the educated viewer but to other people apparently does

123
00:08:50,240 --> 00:08:54,959
so anyway one of the ways it might sound it

124
00:08:53,360 --> 00:08:59,120
might not sound believable but they're trying to be authoritative almost always

125
00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:04,480
so like exactly it makes sense that it might sound that way exactly intent so

126
00:09:02,160 --> 00:09:07,040
so one of the theories we had was that in order to

127
00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:11,680
prevent um you know these kinds of of echo

128
00:09:09,760 --> 00:09:18,240
chambery things from happening youtube might have been de-emphasizing

129
00:09:13,920 --> 00:09:20,560
um more niche content and then pumping

130
00:09:18,240 --> 00:09:23,200
stuff that's safer now

131
00:09:21,279 --> 00:09:27,920
that was the theory and we were kind of like oh well we're tech we're kind of

132
00:09:25,360 --> 00:09:33,519
niche we're also a niche within tech like quite frankly a lot of the content

133
00:09:30,320 --> 00:09:35,360
that we upload would have absolutely

134
00:09:33,519 --> 00:09:42,160
no place on uh a more mainstream tech content

135
00:09:38,480 --> 00:09:44,399
channel like like marquez's like come on

136
00:09:42,160 --> 00:09:48,560
it wouldn't make sense for him to do his audience wouldn't like it and it it

137
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:53,680
makes sense that it goes up on our channel gets fewer views etc etc etc um

138
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:58,320
so we were looking at it going okay well maybe part of this is we're just

139
00:09:56,000 --> 00:10:02,399
more niche and so people because we noticed the biggest dip in viewership

140
00:10:00,000 --> 00:10:05,760
was on our back catalog so maybe what's happening is instead of people watching

141
00:10:03,920 --> 00:10:10,800
one of our new videos and then getting bombarded with our

142
00:10:07,839 --> 00:10:15,200
massive back catalog of 4 000 videos something that had a huge benefit for us

143
00:10:12,800 --> 00:10:19,839
and generated a lot of subscribers maybe instead of that

144
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:22,560
well they're being fed some marquez and

145
00:10:19,839 --> 00:10:26,000
some austin and some gamers nexus and whatever else and to be clear we love

146
00:10:24,560 --> 00:10:30,000
all those guys and that's cool fine whatever but it definitely did have an

147
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:35,440
impact on our viewership over the course of this year so from there i actually had some really

148
00:10:33,680 --> 00:10:40,399
great conversations at the youtuber youtube creator summit and um derek from

149
00:10:38,560 --> 00:10:44,160
veritasium posted a great video did you watch that by the way

150
00:10:41,680 --> 00:10:50,720
posted a great video on his theory about why his shade ball video went viral

151
00:10:47,519 --> 00:10:52,720
and um basically his theory it's funny

152
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:56,640
because i in some ways i give youtube like so much credit

153
00:10:54,399 --> 00:11:00,720
like that like the puppet masters or have all these different strings they're

154
00:10:57,839 --> 00:11:04,640
pulling on his theory was so simple that i forget whose razer it is where

155
00:11:02,800 --> 00:11:09,200
the simplest solution is is that occam's razor thinks so anyway

156
00:11:07,440 --> 00:11:15,600
yeah the simplest solution is usually the correct one his theory was as simple

157
00:11:11,680 --> 00:11:18,320
as youtube has taken the um

158
00:11:15,600 --> 00:11:22,640
the the click-through ratio that you get with your with the the the clickiness of

159
00:11:20,800 --> 00:11:28,800
your title and thumbnail and it has shifted the axis so that

160
00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:34,720
a smaller difference in click-through ratio gives it a greater proportion

161
00:11:32,000 --> 00:11:38,560
more promotion on the site and then a small difference the other way gives you

162
00:11:36,320 --> 00:11:42,480
way less so instead of it being kind of linear if your click-through ratio is

163
00:11:40,399 --> 00:11:46,480
great you're like way up here and if your click-through ratio sucks you're

164
00:11:44,079 --> 00:11:50,000
like way down here um so that was another interesting theory because we

165
00:11:48,079 --> 00:11:55,360
have also had our click-through ratio decreased this year as we've moved away

166
00:11:53,120 --> 00:11:59,600
from more click-baity titles and click baity thumbnails which sucks but it's

167
00:11:58,320 --> 00:12:04,959
something that we've committed to our audience that we're gonna do it just means that we'd really appreciate if you

168
00:12:02,959 --> 00:12:09,040
guys clicked the bell yeah and then watch the video right away yeah that

169
00:12:06,880 --> 00:12:12,720
actually makes a huge difference even if you're not going to actually watch it

170
00:12:10,480 --> 00:12:17,120
right now if you drop what you're doing start the video put your phone back in

171
00:12:14,079 --> 00:12:19,120
your pocket i don't care but if you just

172
00:12:17,120 --> 00:12:21,920
just click and just just go about the rest of your day go watch it later

173
00:12:20,399 --> 00:12:26,320
doesn't matter that initial click-through ratio

174
00:12:24,639 --> 00:12:30,000
basically determines everything about how that video is going

175
00:12:28,399 --> 00:12:33,920
to perform as far as we can tell that's derrick's

176
00:12:31,680 --> 00:12:39,360
theory and it's so simple it might just be right yeah so anyway

177
00:12:36,639 --> 00:12:42,959
ltt has actually struggled in terms of viewership this year it's actually it's

178
00:12:40,800 --> 00:12:46,480
back up in the last four to six weeks or so and we are tracking a really good

179
00:12:44,959 --> 00:12:52,480
direction right now but coming back to our all hands meeting

180
00:12:49,600 --> 00:12:56,880
this monday this was a very very long story wow we're 12 minutes in um coming

181
00:12:54,720 --> 00:13:00,000
back i'm engaged right now coming back to our all hands meeting this monday i

182
00:12:58,399 --> 00:13:04,399
actually did stand up in front of everyone you know when i stand up during the monday morning meeting there's

183
00:13:02,399 --> 00:13:08,880
usually a little serious good news everyone yeah um i basically went look

184
00:13:07,600 --> 00:13:12,959
this is something that i've really struggled with not just um

185
00:13:10,880 --> 00:13:16,560
professionally but also personally you know trying to figure out

186
00:13:14,880 --> 00:13:21,600
what am i doing what am i doing wrong what can i do to fix it um does the

187
00:13:18,720 --> 00:13:27,519
audience just plain not like me anymore um is is is pc hardware losing its sex

188
00:13:24,800 --> 00:13:32,839
appeal like i was trying to identify what it was because unless i know what

189
00:13:29,360 --> 00:13:34,880
the problem is i cannot fix it and

190
00:13:32,839 --> 00:13:39,440
um what i ultimately came to was that there was a

191
00:13:37,519 --> 00:13:42,639
combination of audience sentiment things that did need to be addressed you know

192
00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:46,800
talking to the audience directly about things like doing less offensive thumbnails and

193
00:13:45,680 --> 00:13:50,639
titles that kind of thing you know making sure we're appending the

194
00:13:49,279 --> 00:13:53,920
the brand and the product wherever that makes sense things like that i thought

195
00:13:52,320 --> 00:13:57,440
that was part of it i also thought that some kind of change whether a manual

196
00:13:55,680 --> 00:14:01,920
change or an algorithmic change on youtube side was part of the problem and

197
00:13:59,920 --> 00:14:06,959
then the bigger conclusion that i came to is that maybe

198
00:14:04,320 --> 00:14:10,240
if we build our business correctly it just doesn't matter

199
00:14:09,120 --> 00:14:14,959
because where ltt has struggled this year

200
00:14:13,680 --> 00:14:19,760
techlinked has actually picked up

201
00:14:16,880 --> 00:14:24,720
nearly all of the lost watch time nearly all of the lost

202
00:14:22,079 --> 00:14:27,680
viewership and lost revenue and i kind of went well techland was an

203
00:14:26,560 --> 00:14:31,440
accident after the failure of channel super fun

204
00:14:30,560 --> 00:14:35,279
and a bit of a stagnation period that we

205
00:14:33,680 --> 00:14:40,160
went through with tech quickie to be clear tech quickie's going really well

206
00:14:37,839 --> 00:14:42,560
right now so massive shout out to john and dennis

207
00:14:43,120 --> 00:14:51,360
so after kind of a stagnation period for tech quickie i was full like triple down

208
00:14:49,279 --> 00:14:56,480
mode on ltt i was like okay we just throw all the ltt has literally

209
00:14:54,079 --> 00:15:01,760
ten times as much staff as any other channel even now

210
00:14:59,279 --> 00:15:06,160
but what i realized is if i can't ultimately control it well something

211
00:15:04,079 --> 00:15:10,639
that i can control is this diversification strategy so technique

212
00:15:07,920 --> 00:15:14,079
happened by accident my homeboy riley lost his job because his company went

213
00:15:12,240 --> 00:15:18,160
out of business and i was like yo dog i've been trying to hire you forever you

214
00:15:16,160 --> 00:15:21,680
twit get out of the dumpster get get out of the dumpster get get come on get get

215
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:25,120
on come on and you know riley he's driven to do the

216
00:15:24,000 --> 00:15:30,000
tech news i think we all know this he's driven to

217
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:35,839
to to to do the tech news for the people um so we created techlinked and

218
00:15:32,560 --> 00:15:37,040
techlinked was a an accidental complete

219
00:15:35,839 --> 00:15:41,760
success like that channel is freaking awesome i

220
00:15:39,279 --> 00:15:47,519
get my tech news from tech linked like it's awesome you get your tech news from

221
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:49,680
nice i genuinely watch it all the time

222
00:15:47,519 --> 00:15:53,759
yeah it's great and clearly a lot of people do tech linked regularly gets

223
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:59,199
half a million views of video even only has like 700 800 000 subscribers like

224
00:15:56,240 --> 00:16:04,320
it's outstanding yeah it's a great show um anyway so i was looking at it going

225
00:16:02,480 --> 00:16:09,680
well maybe we're just maybe we're just thinking about this too narrowly

226
00:16:06,399 --> 00:16:12,240
maybe the answer here is to

227
00:16:09,680 --> 00:16:16,160
broaden the net instead because that way every time

228
00:16:14,000 --> 00:16:21,440
tech linked struggles a little bit and you know needs a needs a fresh a fresh

229
00:16:19,120 --> 00:16:25,199
coat of lipstick or you know every time ltt

230
00:16:22,800 --> 00:16:28,399
loses its its groove or every time tech quick he

231
00:16:26,560 --> 00:16:32,880
runs out of things people need explain as if that'll ever happen

232
00:16:30,480 --> 00:16:36,480
something else can carry some of that weight and we can spread things out the

233
00:16:34,800 --> 00:16:40,720
other really cool thing about techlinked is that it doesn't rely on me

234
00:16:38,480 --> 00:16:44,959
yeah at the beginning of techlink i was far and away the top performing host on

235
00:16:42,959 --> 00:16:49,759
that channel in terms of the views that each video would get like of the top 10

236
00:16:47,600 --> 00:16:54,320
i was all but one of them and then of the bottom 10 i wasn't in any of them

237
00:16:51,680 --> 00:16:57,440
like i was clearly my face was driving more clicks

238
00:16:55,440 --> 00:17:01,279
really interesting fact over the last couple of months i've actually been on

239
00:16:59,199 --> 00:17:06,400
the bottom half which i think is great that is because

240
00:17:03,680 --> 00:17:11,600
it means that riley and james i mean we've had dennis host we've had uh alex

241
00:17:08,559 --> 00:17:14,480
host we've had yvonne host it means

242
00:17:11,600 --> 00:17:19,120
it means that people are connecting with the team

243
00:17:16,240 --> 00:17:23,839
and with the brand not just linus sebastian the person who quite honestly

244
00:17:21,199 --> 00:17:29,919
can't do everything forever and so i was so so basically i had this

245
00:17:26,640 --> 00:17:32,799
um this sort of magic moment where

246
00:17:29,919 --> 00:17:37,200
i went okay ltt is starting to recover which is good

247
00:17:33,840 --> 00:17:37,200
if we can hire um

248
00:17:37,360 --> 00:17:45,520
dodge a bullet there uh but also maybe it's not the future maybe it's just one

249
00:17:42,480 --> 00:17:47,840
part of the future and we can we can

250
00:17:45,520 --> 00:17:51,120
bring people more types of tech content that

251
00:17:49,120 --> 00:17:53,440
bring them happiness in other you know tech ways and that's been one of the

252
00:17:52,320 --> 00:17:57,760
great things about the channels that you guys have expanded is like if you liked

253
00:17:55,520 --> 00:18:02,880
linus tech tips and you don't want an education channel or a news channel or a

254
00:18:00,880 --> 00:18:06,160
channel of us playing with weird toys and being very cringy you could just

255
00:18:04,320 --> 00:18:10,320
keep watching the line of tech tips it didn't matter and lion detectives will

256
00:18:08,160 --> 00:18:14,160
as far as i can tell carry on just as well as it has and other channels will

257
00:18:12,160 --> 00:18:18,880
keep carrying on and you're maybe expanding what are you expanding to are

258
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:22,080
you saying at this point i don't know so it was really interesting because

259
00:18:20,160 --> 00:18:26,960
normally when you enter the hiring process you know you might go in and say

260
00:18:24,400 --> 00:18:32,640
uh you know i really want someone with um javascript experience or whatever

261
00:18:30,160 --> 00:18:35,520
okay you set out what your your job requirements are yeah

262
00:18:34,320 --> 00:18:38,960
um well i am just looking at all my

263
00:18:37,679 --> 00:18:43,120
applicants and i'm figuring out what can i do with

264
00:18:41,039 --> 00:18:47,280
this person best applicants are and then i will i will

265
00:18:44,880 --> 00:18:51,520
create programming it's actually there's some a little bit larger companies than

266
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:54,240
flow plane uh that do this in a lot of different spaces you try to find people

267
00:18:53,039 --> 00:18:59,120
that are extremely talented and passionate and you go like welp

268
00:18:56,799 --> 00:19:04,559
i'll make you super valuable let's go uh it's it's actually if you can manage

269
00:19:02,160 --> 00:19:08,000
it it's a very apparently cool way to do things so not necessarily just the new

270
00:19:06,640 --> 00:19:11,760
people but there's people who are already here that the new people could

271
00:19:10,480 --> 00:19:16,320
come and alleviate some of their workload and maybe they could pursue a

272
00:19:14,160 --> 00:19:19,440
passion project james and riley have been really into

273
00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:22,720
talk linked do you know talk linked okay totally

274
00:19:21,360 --> 00:19:27,919
different from tech linked because it's just one topic instead of many topics

275
00:19:24,799 --> 00:19:30,880
and it's long instead of short yeah um

276
00:19:27,919 --> 00:19:35,200
and honestly the last the first episode kind of rough the second episode a lot

277
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:41,360
better and the i happened to eavesdrop on sort of a

278
00:19:38,880 --> 00:19:45,200
a debrief conversation and they had identified basically everything that

279
00:19:43,679 --> 00:19:49,760
they needed to fix and they're like they're iterating and they're they're going through that creative process and

280
00:19:47,919 --> 00:19:53,679
i'm looking at it going like wow like this is great this is me witnessing the

281
00:19:52,400 --> 00:19:57,840
machine working yeah um and but they don't have

282
00:19:56,480 --> 00:20:02,240
time right so james has produced i think four

283
00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:06,480
ltt's in the last two weeks because jake's been on vacation

284
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:09,679
anthony's been tied up preparing some of our really cool boots that we're gonna

285
00:20:07,760 --> 00:20:14,720
have for ltx he's got 10 years of pc gaming he has 10 gaming rigs to

286
00:20:12,320 --> 00:20:18,960
configure build and benchmark and set up demos on

287
00:20:15,840 --> 00:20:20,320
like uh so he's been super busy

288
00:20:18,960 --> 00:20:25,039
alex has been tied up he's actually putting together our like maker space

289
00:20:22,480 --> 00:20:27,600
next door right now yeah like so james we've been leaning on him really heavily

290
00:20:26,400 --> 00:20:31,200
but that means he hasn't had a ton of time for talk linked um so you know we

291
00:20:30,080 --> 00:20:35,679
could bring these new people in they could lift some of that load and then we can

292
00:20:34,400 --> 00:20:41,200
kind of spread things out we can figure out what makes sense i mean it makes each person a little bit more agile as

293
00:20:38,960 --> 00:20:46,480
long as we keep a really great team dynamic here and as long as we stay

294
00:20:42,799 --> 00:20:48,159
passionate about tech whether it's news

295
00:20:46,480 --> 00:20:54,400
news is important riley whether it's news or whether it's something else um

296
00:20:51,760 --> 00:20:57,120
yeah i i guess yeah we're we're gonna we're gonna do more stuff though you

297
00:20:56,159 --> 00:21:01,120
know i'm i'm i'm not done yet

298
00:21:01,120 --> 00:21:08,159
cool you know i was thinking about it not thinking about actually quitting but

299
00:21:05,280 --> 00:21:12,000
thinking about phasing myself out um you know it's you've been sort of talking

300
00:21:09,919 --> 00:21:15,039
about it for a while yeah i i was i was really thinking about it i mean you and

301
00:21:13,120 --> 00:21:19,600
i chatted about it back at ces i think um and i've just been kind of

302
00:21:17,600 --> 00:21:24,159
considering whether like whether i'm done um you know and when the when the

303
00:21:22,159 --> 00:21:28,480
channel is not performing well because at the end of the day it's not

304
00:21:26,080 --> 00:21:31,440
up to me it's it's not up to you it's not up to

305
00:21:29,679 --> 00:21:34,960
the rest of my staff like you know everyone here could go oh no linus you

306
00:21:33,200 --> 00:21:38,400
know we really want you to keep being the face of the company in the face of

307
00:21:36,400 --> 00:21:41,760
the channel and i'd go well yeah that's great but if the audience doesn't want

308
00:21:41,039 --> 00:21:45,840
it then like it's a nice sentiment but it

309
00:21:44,159 --> 00:21:50,159
actually doesn't matter yeah

310
00:21:47,679 --> 00:21:53,600
you could pivot to uh hear me out

311
00:21:51,280 --> 00:21:58,799
you could pivot to like vlogs of you doing hey hold on hold on

312
00:21:56,480 --> 00:22:02,480
i'm not saying daily vlogs or anything just what am i going to be a family

313
00:22:00,480 --> 00:22:07,120
vlogger now no that actually isn't where i was going to go with it hold on

314
00:22:05,440 --> 00:22:11,120
hold on you really enjoyed your like rc car

315
00:22:09,280 --> 00:22:15,600
hacking electronic stuff yeah the gun's going a little bit

316
00:22:12,880 --> 00:22:20,159
further away um just like you experimenting with technologies in

317
00:22:17,600 --> 00:22:23,840
ways that you actually want to and just like fumbling around and trying

318
00:22:21,679 --> 00:22:28,000
different things instead of trying to go with this like

319
00:22:25,120 --> 00:22:31,919
hyper entertainment or hyper so we've done a bit more of that or

320
00:22:29,360 --> 00:22:35,280
whatever i know yeah but having a little bit even more free form and being like

321
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:41,039
off the line of sections channel so it could be like pretty separated if you

322
00:22:37,520 --> 00:22:43,679
wanted to here's one problem with that

323
00:22:41,039 --> 00:22:46,880
at 4 000 videos in i've run most of the experiments that i

324
00:22:45,520 --> 00:22:51,919
was kind of like wondering about when i was in high school yeah yeah i have so much more

325
00:22:49,840 --> 00:22:56,720
resources now than i used to you know one of the things i really struggle with

326
00:22:53,280 --> 00:22:56,720
right now is just

327
00:22:57,120 --> 00:23:02,720
having too much resources like people got mad when i upgraded my

328
00:23:01,440 --> 00:23:07,200
gaming rig so there's a couple problems one is that people don't think critically sometimes

329
00:23:06,000 --> 00:23:10,240
so they were like why are you calling a titan graphics

330
00:23:09,039 --> 00:23:16,000
card slow so the thing is depending on what generation of titan is

331
00:23:13,679 --> 00:23:19,919
it is it could be really slow by today's standards it is it could be literally

332
00:23:18,159 --> 00:23:24,400
the fastest card on the market all the way down to slower than

333
00:23:22,559 --> 00:23:26,640
literally anything that nvidia currently sells

334
00:23:28,880 --> 00:23:35,520
and then you know you've got people that are frustrated because for me upgrading

335
00:23:33,280 --> 00:23:40,159
my personal rig is as simple as showing up at nvidia for a sponsored

336
00:23:37,360 --> 00:23:45,120
project of all things and saying that i've been finally finding time to play

337
00:23:41,919 --> 00:23:46,799
games lately um but anno 1800 is like

338
00:23:45,120 --> 00:23:49,120
chugging on my system and them just being like

339
00:23:48,240 --> 00:23:54,240
what i'll put a graphics card in the mail people people get mad about that

340
00:23:52,799 --> 00:23:59,760
and i get it but the flip side of it is um

341
00:23:57,679 --> 00:24:04,960
the alternative i guess is for me to just not tell you

342
00:24:02,080 --> 00:24:07,679
yeah because you could be an influencer 1

343
00:24:05,919 --> 00:24:13,679
20th my size and i use the term influencer

344
00:24:10,400 --> 00:24:16,320
as like the i word um so let's say an

345
00:24:13,679 --> 00:24:21,360
online content creator literally 120th my size and getting something like a

346
00:24:18,480 --> 00:24:27,520
graphics card sent to you is easy i mean even when we started lioness

347
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:29,200
tech tips we had 200 000 subscribers

348
00:24:27,520 --> 00:24:34,559
yeah and one of the first videos that luke worked on when we went indie was

349
00:24:31,200 --> 00:24:36,960
our review of the first gtx titan yeah

350
00:24:34,559 --> 00:24:40,240
like it's not like this is new so the only

351
00:24:38,159 --> 00:24:44,240
so if you're gonna get mad at me about it you're well within your rights but

352
00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:49,440
just understand that anyone else out there who is not telling you that

353
00:24:47,200 --> 00:24:51,919
they got sampled a card for complete for doing a project or whatever the case may

354
00:24:51,120 --> 00:24:57,039
be is probably just not telling you there are exceptions

355
00:24:54,799 --> 00:25:01,840
but we believe in transparency if nothing else

356
00:24:58,159 --> 00:25:02,880
also it's not for my personal rig

357
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:07,919
it's for a video there you have it so there's your full

358
00:25:06,559 --> 00:25:13,440
disclosure hey guys i'm working on my personal rig this

359
00:25:11,360 --> 00:25:17,679
video was sent or this video card was sent over by nvidia this motherboard was

360
00:25:15,279 --> 00:25:22,880
sent over by gigabyte that's it we are we are fulfilling our

361
00:25:19,919 --> 00:25:26,000
obligation and so if you want me to just say hey i'm working on my personal rig

362
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:30,159
here's the parts i'm using i could do that but i just don't i don't think

363
00:25:28,320 --> 00:25:33,279
that's good enough and not just i don't think that's good enough the fcc doesn't

364
00:25:31,600 --> 00:25:36,080
think that's good enough so i mean they don't have any jurisdictions

365
00:25:35,039 --> 00:25:40,880
yeah at all and so but it's a good idea to i

366
00:25:39,279 --> 00:25:44,960
could just not but for my part i would rather take a little

367
00:25:43,440 --> 00:25:47,679
bit of negativity and uh

368
00:25:46,640 --> 00:25:52,799
just deal with it and there's people that are going to be resentful but i guess my response to them would be

369
00:25:51,679 --> 00:25:57,039
um you know where's your channel

370
00:25:55,120 --> 00:26:00,240
where's your investment in building something

371
00:25:58,720 --> 00:26:04,960
so that people want you to show their products on it

372
00:26:03,919 --> 00:26:11,120
like i'm not saying that anyone can be a youtuber i'm just saying that

373
00:26:09,120 --> 00:26:14,640
you literally won't know unless you're like really

374
00:26:12,880 --> 00:26:18,640
trying to do it give it a shot and then should people be

375
00:26:17,039 --> 00:26:21,840
should people resent you if someone sends you a graphics card

376
00:26:20,720 --> 00:26:26,880
i don't know have you have you heard taylor swift's new song i haven't

377
00:26:24,880 --> 00:26:32,080
oh boy do i sound like her please don't tell me no actually no no no no no no no

378
00:26:29,600 --> 00:26:34,720
no no no no no no stop it

379
00:26:33,279 --> 00:26:38,240
that actually ties in really well to what i would say right there is the

380
00:26:36,480 --> 00:26:41,520
title of song as you need to calm down you're being or and then a part of the

381
00:26:40,320 --> 00:26:45,039
lyrics is like you need to calm down you're being too loud and the whole

382
00:26:43,360 --> 00:26:52,640
thing is just like leave it alone and this is i think one of those kind of situations where like he's he's telling

383
00:26:48,880 --> 00:26:54,799
you i i have seen a lot of creators do a

384
00:26:52,640 --> 00:26:57,440
lot worse things where they hide it or there's something going on in the

385
00:26:55,919 --> 00:27:02,000
background and they're not communicating that stuff him saying like hey they sent me this

386
00:27:00,000 --> 00:27:05,840
card it doesn't mean go buy this card it's the best one no and i didn't say

387
00:27:03,760 --> 00:27:09,600
that no i have never recommended a titan to anyone no

388
00:27:07,760 --> 00:27:14,720
nvidia knows that they still sent it yeah it means hey i got this card i might as

389
00:27:13,039 --> 00:27:19,679
well use it it's gonna fulfill all the things i really care about

390
00:27:17,120 --> 00:27:21,520
sweet dunks literally the fastest card so

391
00:27:20,480 --> 00:27:25,600
cool put it in i don't know and people are all over the map because on the one hand

392
00:27:24,240 --> 00:27:29,520
you've got people mad that i'm putting in an rtx titan and then on the other

393
00:27:27,520 --> 00:27:34,440
hand you've got people mad that like what kind of tech influence are you not

394
00:27:31,039 --> 00:27:34,440
even running slide

395
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:43,039
yeah yeah you've got too many people in your audience at a certain point like you

396
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:44,080
can't please everyone yeah yeah exactly

397
00:27:43,039 --> 00:27:50,640
um this shirt is kind of pleasing though we should probably do ad spots oh right and

398
00:27:48,159 --> 00:27:57,279
surely you mean sponsor spots oh right oh because our sponsor integrations and

399
00:27:54,480 --> 00:28:02,399
placements surely do not compete with youtube's ad formats yep we should do a

400
00:28:00,559 --> 00:28:06,159
lan show on that at some point why we have to call everything sponsored that

401
00:28:03,919 --> 00:28:10,159
would be awesome just kind of some inside baseball for you ladies and

402
00:28:07,679 --> 00:28:13,600
gentlemen uh ridge wallet yeah where's the ridge wallet

403
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:19,200
they didn't give us a ridge wallet to talk about

404
00:28:16,399 --> 00:28:25,840
uh they might have been hoping mine would be here oh shoot but honestly to

405
00:28:22,159 --> 00:28:25,840
be screwed up straight up hey jake

406
00:28:26,240 --> 00:28:31,279
jake daly drives one is brandon getting one

407
00:28:29,360 --> 00:28:35,120
hey brandon saves the day yeah thanks

408
00:28:33,600 --> 00:28:40,640
brandon so the reason why i don't have mine on me is because

409
00:28:37,919 --> 00:28:45,440
uh i was traveling you didn't lose it and i lose my stuff way too often and i

410
00:28:43,279 --> 00:28:50,240
didn't want to lose it oh all right that is why i actually believe see

411
00:28:48,080 --> 00:28:55,360
this is why he said that because it's happened multiple times he lost the

412
00:28:52,880 --> 00:28:58,320
first phone that he ever earned as an influencer and i'm going to use the word

413
00:28:56,880 --> 00:29:02,640
earned because you don't become an influencer by accident he left it on a

414
00:29:00,320 --> 00:29:08,880
plane was it lg g3 g3 g3 but it still haunts

459
00:32:11,039 --> 00:32:15,559
i checked yeah i was curious

460
00:32:17,120 --> 00:32:23,120
all right back to the show ladies and gentlemen why don't we talk about the tech topic

461
00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:27,760
um yeah why don't we talk about the 64 core threadripper yes so this is a rumor

462
00:32:25,760 --> 00:32:34,159
right now rumor status uh this was posted by clueless gamer on the forum

463
00:32:31,039 --> 00:32:38,200
it's definitely a rumor wccf tech

464
00:32:34,159 --> 00:32:41,120
they claim amd is working on a 64 core

465
00:32:38,200 --> 00:32:44,960
128 thread threadripper part for launch in q4 of 2019.

466
00:32:44,159 --> 00:32:49,519
now this was something that was

467
00:32:47,519 --> 00:32:53,679
very recently rumored to be going away altogether threadripper was like on

468
00:32:51,440 --> 00:32:57,519
amd's roadmap and it was like then kind of off not on it yeah

469
00:32:55,679 --> 00:33:01,840
and then now there's a rumor that we're still going to have it

470
00:32:59,279 --> 00:33:06,640
i'm going to say something unpopular oh i don't think this skew makes any sense

471
00:33:05,120 --> 00:33:13,039
i think amd has such a strong end

472
00:33:09,600 --> 00:33:14,559
i am take everything i'm saying as a

473
00:33:13,039 --> 00:33:18,240
rumor and the reason for that is that we

474
00:33:16,080 --> 00:33:23,120
haven't actually seen third gen ryzen performance yet yeah so

475
00:33:21,200 --> 00:33:28,960
i am oh we're coming back to this i am assuming based on amd's numbers that

476
00:33:26,320 --> 00:33:34,240
they have provided that they are not lying

477
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:36,960
and that third gen riser kicks ass riser

478
00:33:34,240 --> 00:33:40,559
did i say riser riser ryzen sorry all right so i am assuming that they are

479
00:33:39,360 --> 00:33:44,720
not bull crapping around

480
00:33:42,799 --> 00:33:48,559
i kind of like riser right someone should make a riser product line

481
00:33:46,799 --> 00:33:52,480
all right enough sorry

482
00:33:50,000 --> 00:33:55,840
here just twist a little bit take it

483
00:33:54,240 --> 00:33:59,919
thanks yeah it looked like a nipple pinch anyway

484
00:33:58,000 --> 00:34:02,960
so i'm i'm going based on that third gen ryzen is going to be awesome

485
00:34:01,519 --> 00:34:08,079
so here's my here's my counter to thread

486
00:34:05,200 --> 00:34:12,399
ripper pitch you already have 32 core thread ripper okay that already

487
00:34:11,280 --> 00:34:18,000
exists on the ryzen 3rd gen

488
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:24,159
mainstream platform you are already going to have a 16 core

489
00:34:22,000 --> 00:34:30,320
32 thread chip i would i would postulate that for the

490
00:34:27,520 --> 00:34:34,919
vast majority of workloads that is already

491
00:34:31,440 --> 00:34:34,919
more than enough

492
00:34:35,119 --> 00:34:41,520
i i realize i'm changing my tune a lot because back when intel was determined

493
00:34:39,359 --> 00:34:46,399
to keep quad core the maximum for mainstream forever i was like

494
00:34:43,919 --> 00:34:48,960
yo where's my course for mainstream i absolutely think so for

495
00:34:48,159 --> 00:34:55,200
some scenarios where you're trying to build out like serverless clouds and stuff by

496
00:34:53,520 --> 00:34:59,520
epic yeah

497
00:34:57,200 --> 00:35:05,760
i just it feels completely unnecessary

498
00:35:02,240 --> 00:35:07,040
because verizon whatever it is 30 90

499
00:35:05,760 --> 00:35:11,040
something what's the future of their effort again what's their future of the epic

500
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:14,960
processors 30 what no epic is uh epic is going to

501
00:35:13,839 --> 00:35:19,119
be on there so zen 2 epic is going to be called rome

502
00:35:17,200 --> 00:35:22,000
okay it's coming okay very soon okay okay so

503
00:35:22,880 --> 00:35:30,480
i could still see them doing thread ripper as a 20

504
00:35:28,000 --> 00:35:35,599
24 32 lineup or something like that

505
00:35:33,440 --> 00:35:38,800
but that's three skus it's hard to say if it's worth

506
00:35:36,640 --> 00:35:44,000
maintaining a completely separate socket and chipset platform for it

507
00:35:41,440 --> 00:35:49,920
um it's already like it's like it's it's so

508
00:35:47,440 --> 00:35:54,720
niche the only reason i could think of to do it would be to just

509
00:35:52,480 --> 00:35:58,720
put the screws to intel but even then it's totally unnecessary

510
00:35:56,880 --> 00:36:02,800
like we already kind of have intel isn't going to have

511
00:36:00,560 --> 00:36:06,240
anything to compete with even a 32 core thread ripper

512
00:36:04,000 --> 00:36:10,640
within the next 18 months as far as i can tell yeah so this is just

513
00:36:08,960 --> 00:36:14,560
when do we get to the point where we're honestly just giving up too much of our

514
00:36:12,800 --> 00:36:19,040
single threaded clock speed for the sake of having more cores

515
00:36:16,079 --> 00:36:22,480
and if we really need 64 cores why aren't we just getting an epic there

516
00:36:20,640 --> 00:36:27,119
is very very little that i can think of

517
00:36:24,960 --> 00:36:32,800
even for a workstation workload that needs 64 cpu cores i hadn't heard the

518
00:36:30,000 --> 00:36:36,240
rom you call that rom like r-o-m-e yeah yeah okay i hadn't heard the rome news

519
00:36:35,119 --> 00:36:41,920
so it sort of made sense to me is there specs out for what rome will be up to 64

520
00:36:40,880 --> 00:36:45,599
course so basically they're just repurposing rome yeah as a workstation

521
00:36:44,160 --> 00:36:52,000
product which i mean i guess if you're building the damn thing anyway

522
00:36:48,560 --> 00:36:52,000
okay maybe if it's easy

523
00:36:52,560 --> 00:36:58,160
it doesn't make it yeah the thing about threadripper though is it's overclockable

524
00:36:56,800 --> 00:37:04,079
i don't know that i would recommend overclocking a 64-core processor

525
00:37:02,000 --> 00:37:06,960
so it just feels like the the product without a customer

526
00:37:07,280 --> 00:37:13,119
because you're either a little bit lower than it probably or a

527
00:37:11,440 --> 00:37:17,040
little bit higher than it probably there's it's fairly unlikely you'll be

528
00:37:14,720 --> 00:37:20,720
right on so if i'm amd and there's any truth to it would be fun the rumors here

529
00:37:19,920 --> 00:37:25,920
yeah so okay if this isn't about building a practical

530
00:37:24,320 --> 00:37:28,720
product yeah and you don't actually care if anybody buys it here's what's going

531
00:37:27,599 --> 00:37:35,200
to happen based on what we know what we're taking amd's word for

532
00:37:32,880 --> 00:37:37,599
so far with 3rd gen ryzen it should have excellent performance per

533
00:37:36,800 --> 00:37:40,880
watt the sustained clock speeds that it can

534
00:37:39,920 --> 00:37:44,640
hit should be pretty decent even with high

535
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:50,640
core counts and its ipc improvements over last gen

536
00:37:47,839 --> 00:37:56,000
zen are looking pretty good yeah so with all of that in mind

537
00:37:52,560 --> 00:37:58,240
intel's highest end and like

538
00:37:56,000 --> 00:38:02,880
it's like full desperation move that w series 28 core xeon that the

539
00:38:00,800 --> 00:38:06,880
overclockable one that you can put on there's like three motherboards that

540
00:38:04,400 --> 00:38:09,440
exist for it or whatever um so

541
00:38:07,839 --> 00:38:13,760
so intel's best possible response without bringing back

542
00:38:12,320 --> 00:38:18,400
like skull trail dual socket overclockable systems is 28 cores

543
00:38:17,520 --> 00:38:24,320
so what we know then is that if amd goes 32

544
00:38:22,160 --> 00:38:27,520
core which is what they currently have and what they could easily and

545
00:38:26,240 --> 00:38:31,839
comfortably do with a next-gen threadripper they will probably beat

546
00:38:29,599 --> 00:38:37,119
that processor by a little so when you're looking at the like review the

547
00:38:34,800 --> 00:38:40,640
the halo product versus the halo product amd might be on top

548
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:43,839
but like by a bit and it might depend on if it's

549
00:38:42,560 --> 00:38:50,640
like an avx 512 enabled workload or whatever

550
00:38:46,560 --> 00:38:53,839
if amd releases a 64 core processor they

551
00:38:50,640 --> 00:38:55,280
know that for the first time

552
00:38:53,839 --> 00:38:59,280
uh ever no no they beat until the dual class

553
00:38:57,680 --> 00:39:04,480
they beat them to dual core so for the first time in over 10 years

554
00:39:01,839 --> 00:39:07,839
they know that they will not just beat intel at the top of the benchmark

555
00:39:06,640 --> 00:39:13,119
leaderboards they will absolutely

556
00:39:10,000 --> 00:39:15,040
destroy them pardon my french

557
00:39:13,119 --> 00:39:18,320
sorry we don't have the button yeah i need the button

558
00:39:16,560 --> 00:39:22,400
like we're talking there will be benchmark graphs where

559
00:39:20,560 --> 00:39:28,640
people are showing you know video encoding in ffmpeg or cinebench

560
00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:34,079
where amd literally is outperforming until by a factor of two yeah

561
00:39:32,160 --> 00:39:39,440
that's the only reason that i can think of for them to do it it sounds fun and

562
00:39:36,640 --> 00:39:44,800
with how like successful they've been for the last little while maybe that

563
00:39:42,000 --> 00:39:49,520
type of fun is becoming worth it where like the uh the the last round of

564
00:39:47,680 --> 00:39:51,920
processors from amd i would not have necessarily said the same thing well now

565
00:39:50,800 --> 00:39:58,079
that they're selling anything at a profit they actually have some that's what i'm playing with yeah yeah so that

566
00:39:55,440 --> 00:39:58,079
helps yeah

567
00:39:59,440 --> 00:40:05,839
it's cool though i don't know i've been very happy with all this amd stuff um

568
00:40:03,760 --> 00:40:08,960
and with constant security vulnerability problems coming from intel

569
00:40:07,680 --> 00:40:13,040
um it's it's a it's a good time over in

570
00:40:10,720 --> 00:40:19,119
that camp so the rumor is that um it would be socket compatible

571
00:40:17,119 --> 00:40:22,880
with existing tr4 motherboards after a bios update um

572
00:40:21,280 --> 00:40:27,520
if there's speculation that it's probably a 14 nanometer part

573
00:40:25,280 --> 00:40:33,839
um they're we're expecting it to be priced in the 2500 to 3 000 range um

574
00:40:32,720 --> 00:40:38,000
and they're aiming for mid q4 2019 because

575
00:40:36,320 --> 00:40:42,640
they have something planned for ces next year or at the very latest january 2020.

576
00:40:41,760 --> 00:40:47,200
um actually i don't even know if these are zen 2 course which is interesting

577
00:40:45,440 --> 00:40:51,040
because if they're not 7 nanometer they wouldn't be as far as i know

578
00:40:49,680 --> 00:40:56,079
forgive me for not having all the details about this rumored product yeah

579
00:40:53,599 --> 00:41:02,240
but uh we'll see we'll see how it goes either way the only way that i could see

580
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:05,200
this making any sense for amd is just as

581
00:41:02,240 --> 00:41:08,480
a gigantic fu which is fun

582
00:41:06,800 --> 00:41:11,920
which is fun yeah yeah

583
00:41:10,079 --> 00:41:16,160
all right speaking of fun xbox scarlet announced you want to talk

584
00:41:13,520 --> 00:41:19,920
about this one uh yeah sure this is awesome by the way and if you're in the

585
00:41:18,319 --> 00:41:25,119
computer space you're like no consoles suck no it's awesome shut up because

586
00:41:22,800 --> 00:41:28,319
every time new really awesome consoles come out everything steps up a little

587
00:41:26,800 --> 00:41:31,920
bit because developers are going to be making for compatibility across the

588
00:41:30,240 --> 00:41:36,400
platform and you want this this is good for you this is very good for you also

589
00:41:34,000 --> 00:41:42,319
consoles are basically computers now yes extremely much so supports don't suck so

590
00:41:38,640 --> 00:41:43,760
hard yeah um so that's it's great it's

591
00:41:42,319 --> 00:41:46,880
actually it's fantastic anyways microsoft announced it at e3 2019

592
00:41:46,000 --> 00:41:51,920
there's a bunch of stuff that got announced at e3 2019 um they're they're

593
00:41:49,920 --> 00:41:55,119
they're apparently we'll have a physical disk drive which is actually important

594
00:41:54,079 --> 00:42:00,560
to know because they've been talking about maybe not having that for a little while now can i interrupt for a second

595
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:04,240
this is a really important comment clash in cube india says linus got a great

596
00:42:02,480 --> 00:42:07,839
body thank you go ahead

597
00:42:05,680 --> 00:42:12,400
i did i did um auto completes for you and i on youtube

598
00:42:10,400 --> 00:42:16,960
recently just out of pure pure curiosity yeah and one of your top

599
00:42:14,400 --> 00:42:20,319
ones is topless really or shirtless or something but

600
00:42:18,640 --> 00:42:23,760
effectively without a shirt on that's uncomfortable so there you go cool

601
00:42:22,079 --> 00:42:27,200
nobody should want to see my weird chest hair tuft

602
00:42:27,200 --> 00:42:34,880
it's a custom designed amd processor using zen 2 and navi architectures sexy

603
00:42:32,800 --> 00:42:39,040
from a pure processing perspective it's four times more powerful and while i was

604
00:42:36,960 --> 00:42:44,319
reading this i expected it to say the original xbox one but it's the xbox one

605
00:42:42,000 --> 00:42:49,200
x which is that's actually like that's cool uh capable of running games at 120

606
00:42:47,200 --> 00:42:53,599
hertz frame rates now i want to jump in for a second and say that that is a bs

607
00:42:51,280 --> 00:42:56,560
way to talk about the power of a game console

608
00:42:54,960 --> 00:43:00,960
that's true what game are we talking about what at what texture the

609
00:42:59,760 --> 00:43:04,560
resolution and this detail level at what draw

610
00:43:02,800 --> 00:43:09,359
distance and this is going to apply to the next note as well uh keynote says 8k

611
00:43:07,359 --> 00:43:12,960
compatibility for a brief second like yeah is it a picture this stuff makes me

612
00:43:11,920 --> 00:43:17,599
so mad so there were people posting again on

613
00:43:15,520 --> 00:43:21,119
the personal rig update one that are like

614
00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:27,440
pc gaming is a joke because even with the titan rtx it was still only running

615
00:43:22,800 --> 00:43:30,400
at 70 to 85 frames per second

616
00:43:27,440 --> 00:43:34,400
as if it's that simple it depends on how much you cranked up

617
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:39,280
the details do you remember uh the console comparison video we did yeah at

618
00:43:37,040 --> 00:43:43,119
the last big launch that was technically like the last big console launch uh it's

619
00:43:41,680 --> 00:43:47,680
just been forever you guys should do another one yeah we totally should

620
00:43:46,079 --> 00:43:54,319
i was also thinking of doing a lot better doing a video called

621
00:43:51,040 --> 00:43:55,680
console marketing is stupid

622
00:43:54,319 --> 00:43:59,920
were we basically okay but pc marketing is really stupid too i know but console

623
00:43:57,520 --> 00:44:04,240
marketing vr ready is sli ready that's really stupid and i

624
00:44:02,000 --> 00:44:07,440
don't have to accept that so the reason that marketing a console

625
00:44:06,720 --> 00:44:12,400
as 4k is that

626
00:44:10,560 --> 00:44:16,880
everything has trade-offs i could run games at 4k on a

627
00:44:14,800 --> 00:44:22,240
six-year-old computer what games

628
00:44:19,359 --> 00:44:28,240
at what image quality settings pong exactly i could run i could i could

629
00:44:25,440 --> 00:44:33,839
whatever this laptop i could run a game at 4k 120 frames per second if i don't

630
00:44:31,440 --> 00:44:38,079
tell you what game it is and what it freaking looks like that is not

631
00:44:36,319 --> 00:44:43,440
meaningful information it's like it's like having a

632
00:44:39,680 --> 00:44:45,599
multi-variable algebra equation and

633
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:52,319
you've only got one number and everything else you've got variables x y

634
00:44:49,440 --> 00:44:56,319
z a b c gamma freaking it's all over the place it would be cool

635
00:44:54,079 --> 00:44:59,280
if they tried to maybe use a first party title

636
00:44:57,839 --> 00:45:06,800
like for microsoft pretty easy one to call out halo if they were like halo and more will run

637
00:45:03,920 --> 00:45:11,680
at 120. sure or something um anyway i'll let you finish i'ma let

638
00:45:08,960 --> 00:45:14,720
you finish but i'ma let you finish uh apparently there's a quote saying we're

639
00:45:12,960 --> 00:45:20,319
seeing over 40 times performance increase over the current generation

640
00:45:16,640 --> 00:45:22,160
from the ssd and yeah yeah yeah to be

641
00:45:20,319 --> 00:45:26,319
yeah i probably should have said that um because the ssd is being used as virtual

642
00:45:24,240 --> 00:45:30,240
ram so it's gonna share a little bit uh and moving through worlds without

643
00:45:28,000 --> 00:45:33,760
waiting for screens to load is going to maybe happen sometimes with

644
00:45:32,480 --> 00:45:36,960
some games that's so funny too because it's like

645
00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:41,040
they're like yeah what an innovation an ssd

646
00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:46,480
yeah meanwhile we're like hey yeah you mean like when people were

647
00:45:43,359 --> 00:45:50,079
upgrading for freaking like

648
00:45:46,480 --> 00:45:51,119
wow burning crusade

649
00:45:50,079 --> 00:45:55,920
and to be clear people have been manually upgrading consoles with ssds for a bit too

650
00:45:54,079 --> 00:45:58,800
it's it's honestly like burning crusade days that was kind of when people

651
00:45:57,280 --> 00:46:04,560
started upgrading and putting wow on an ssd so that they wouldn't load when they

652
00:46:00,800 --> 00:46:07,040
went budget like come on

653
00:46:04,560 --> 00:46:11,599
um halo infinite is confirmed as a launch title but also to be clear halo

654
00:46:08,960 --> 00:46:15,560
infinite's coming to pc and xbox one x as well nice um

655
00:46:15,760 --> 00:46:21,760
it's possible that a new elite controller a series two no that's

656
00:46:19,520 --> 00:46:26,560
available for pre-order that's coming i'm excited i love my elite controller

657
00:46:24,560 --> 00:46:30,400
except when it broke it's actually the only xbox controller i've ever had break

658
00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:35,280
is my elite controller that's kind of sad how did it break d-pad

659
00:46:33,200 --> 00:46:38,000
so i was playing cross-code and um use the d-pad to switch between the

660
00:46:36,480 --> 00:46:42,319
different elements okay i'm starting soon you said something sorry uh you

661
00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:46,000
said something about keyboard and mouse versus controller should i keyboard and mouse it

662
00:46:46,319 --> 00:46:52,800
it's i think it okay i've never actually played it on keyboard and mouse

663
00:46:51,280 --> 00:46:56,560
so the only experience i have with the keyboard mouse controls

664
00:46:55,040 --> 00:47:01,200
i didn't even realize you could play it with keyboard and mouse because it's like

665
00:46:58,960 --> 00:47:04,240
a top-down sprite-based rpg and i just grabbed a controller the first time i

666
00:47:02,800 --> 00:47:08,000
played it because i was like duh this is that's how you do that yeah so

667
00:47:06,640 --> 00:47:11,760
the only reason i even know you can control it with keyboard and mouse it's

668
00:47:10,079 --> 00:47:15,359
because i was sitting on a plane and i kept like accidentally like aiming

669
00:47:13,680 --> 00:47:20,079
and firing at stuff and i didn't realize i was touching my touch pad with the back of my hand

670
00:47:18,880 --> 00:47:25,440
so i kind of played around with it a little bit and it seems like particularly for

671
00:47:23,119 --> 00:47:28,480
quickly aiming keyboard and mouse would be

672
00:47:26,240 --> 00:47:35,760
way better yeah that makes sense that's kind of a rule i really enjoyed

673
00:47:32,160 --> 00:47:38,640
like the laid-back console experience of

674
00:47:35,760 --> 00:47:40,880
using a controller with it and like you're good enough with the

675
00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:44,240
controller that it probably shouldn't matter okay yeah

676
00:47:42,560 --> 00:47:49,839
okay i could do it i beat the game no problem there were challenging parts but like i

677
00:47:47,040 --> 00:47:55,200
could do it and it wasn't so did you ever play psychonauts no i uh i

678
00:47:52,640 --> 00:48:02,319
played a demo so psychonauts towards the end is like

679
00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:07,119
it's like kind of unfair like there's some really frustrating

680
00:48:03,920 --> 00:48:09,599
parts that are like i'd say

681
00:48:07,119 --> 00:48:11,680
amazing game design for a very skilled player

682
00:48:10,880 --> 00:48:15,520
like you should be able to um

683
00:48:14,319 --> 00:48:20,160
you should be able to beat it on the first try if you're really really good

684
00:48:17,920 --> 00:48:23,200
unless it's dark souls or something like obviously there are games that are

685
00:48:21,359 --> 00:48:27,359
designed to just kick your ass over and over and over again yeah

686
00:48:25,440 --> 00:48:30,720
but i'd say most games if they're balanced correctly if you're really

687
00:48:28,800 --> 00:48:34,079
really good and you are mastering every new skill as it comes at you you should

688
00:48:32,559 --> 00:48:39,520
be able to be level on the first try like psychonauts like really really tough so i'd say cross code

689
00:48:37,440 --> 00:48:42,079
is is everything is beatable on the first try if you've been paying really

690
00:48:40,880 --> 00:48:46,559
close attention with a controller there's no i never

691
00:48:44,240 --> 00:48:51,440
felt like it was totally unfair okay yeah all right fair

692
00:48:48,400 --> 00:48:53,040
um current xbox one accessories will

693
00:48:51,440 --> 00:48:59,760
work with scarlett which is cool and apparently launching holiday 2020 so

694
00:48:56,880 --> 00:49:07,119
we're still quite a ways out but yeah yes jim this is bacon jerky

695
00:49:04,240 --> 00:49:11,680
it's pretty legit actually yeah that's scarlet it's uh not coming

696
00:49:09,280 --> 00:49:15,760
for a while but it's very exciting it's cool

697
00:49:13,040 --> 00:49:19,119
we should maybe stay on the microsoft path

698
00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:22,800
and jump down to the xbox game pass for pc

699
00:49:21,280 --> 00:49:27,200
yeah so basically uh it's like a steam like

700
00:49:25,920 --> 00:49:31,839
thingy but it's a subscription based it's ten

701
00:49:30,000 --> 00:49:36,960
bucks a month or five bucks a month if you sign up during the beta or

702
00:49:33,839 --> 00:49:39,760
one dollar if you sign up now but it's

703
00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:44,079
10 bucks a month um over 100 pc games available at launch

704
00:49:41,920 --> 00:49:46,960
and it's not game streaming so you still need to like download the game and play

705
00:49:45,440 --> 00:49:50,720
it off your computer and stuff so here's some of the games um

706
00:49:48,800 --> 00:49:52,880
here i'll just uh screen share with you guys

707
00:49:53,559 --> 00:49:59,040
333 results honestly as with pretty much all of

708
00:49:57,839 --> 00:50:05,760
these things so here let's filter by pc games sure

709
00:50:04,000 --> 00:50:10,240
hooray 108 results that's more like it

710
00:50:08,480 --> 00:50:13,440
yeah a lot of it is stuff i have never heard

711
00:50:12,240 --> 00:50:19,280
of versa sea of thieves here's a war there's a

712
00:50:16,480 --> 00:50:22,720
war a bunch of first-party stuff i think the most interesting things in here are

713
00:50:20,960 --> 00:50:27,040
going to be the first party games other than that they're going to be mostly things that could have been very cheap

714
00:50:25,599 --> 00:50:32,480
if you caught bought them on certain sales or things that you're probably not going

715
00:50:29,359 --> 00:50:34,559
to be super interested in just because

716
00:50:32,480 --> 00:50:37,200
unless you're like equally interested in literally every game genre because

717
00:50:36,079 --> 00:50:42,000
there's a whole bunch of different game genres maybe this is a really good game is it

718
00:50:40,400 --> 00:50:45,599
wrong if i'm a little offended on by someone trying to capitalize on mr

719
00:50:43,440 --> 00:50:50,559
rogers he was so against that kind of stuff is that supposed to be hello

720
00:50:47,680 --> 00:50:54,960
neighbor come on wearing like a plaid sweater vest oh it's a super creepy game

721
00:50:52,559 --> 00:50:57,760
though it's it has nothing to do with i hear you

722
00:50:56,319 --> 00:51:02,079
i see where you're going you can't say hello neighbor without it yeah being

723
00:51:00,319 --> 00:51:04,800
fred rogers i got you but you're trying to like i've never played it but i think

724
00:51:03,760 --> 00:51:09,920
you're trying to like break into that guy's house and he's trying to like catch you

725
00:51:08,800 --> 00:51:14,960
and then yeah i think he's holding a shovel because he attacks yourself

726
00:51:13,040 --> 00:51:17,520
highly recommended broforce is amazing luke and i played through it a little

727
00:51:16,480 --> 00:51:20,480
while ago save this fire is great

728
00:51:20,559 --> 00:51:26,800
very good i actually really enjoyed lucky's tale

729
00:51:24,640 --> 00:51:31,359
really yeah did you not i don't think i played it very much oh

730
00:51:29,119 --> 00:51:36,800
yeah it was like it's like the one thing that i ever played on the oculus yeah i

731
00:51:33,520 --> 00:51:39,040
didn't i ran it on the 5. but i had

732
00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:42,960
bought an oculus so i don't even care yeah so because i bought one for lmg

733
00:51:42,160 --> 00:51:48,160
yeah so i i i ran that on an unauthorized

734
00:51:46,319 --> 00:51:53,359
system with no it's interesting quality so we called

735
00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:59,200
this so hard and we got so much crap for it mostly me i guess uh not not the crap

736
00:51:56,079 --> 00:52:01,119
i mean the calling um but vr you guys

737
00:51:59,200 --> 00:52:06,079
didn't even cover the new stuff did anyone complain i'm yes actually i

738
00:52:03,920 --> 00:52:09,440
need to cover the quest people are mad but not the rift s

739
00:52:07,680 --> 00:52:13,839
who cares about the rift s yeah there you go oof yeah no one cared

740
00:52:12,160 --> 00:52:17,440
about the rift as people do care about the quest the quest seems to be doing

741
00:52:15,599 --> 00:52:21,440
pretty well i'm really skeptical about it but i am trying to maintain an open

742
00:52:19,760 --> 00:52:26,000
mind i will i was i was going to come here and say

743
00:52:24,000 --> 00:52:30,000
i understand but i think you should cover it because i don't think linus

744
00:52:28,319 --> 00:52:33,599
tech tips should lose the foothold of covering vr content

745
00:52:31,760 --> 00:52:39,280
because i think it will be really big at some time at some point okay game time

746
00:52:36,400 --> 00:52:44,319
cross codes in game pass hey hey already bought it so whatever that's cheap yeah

747
00:52:42,559 --> 00:52:48,559
i love that game so much i wouldn't it's not like

748
00:52:46,640 --> 00:52:52,240
i'm not gonna play it again it's hard not necessarily recommend it it's not oh

749
00:52:50,240 --> 00:52:57,040
no i'll recommend it okay no problem it's not my favorite game or anything

750
00:52:54,880 --> 00:53:02,000
but if i'm being really honest i think it's better than

751
00:52:59,200 --> 00:53:05,599
a lot of the rpgs that i treasure having played as a kid oh like i think

752
00:53:04,160 --> 00:53:09,520
it's objectively better we've got some nostalgic classes

753
00:53:07,200 --> 00:53:11,520
yeah like i think if i'm being honest with myself what about breath of the

754
00:53:10,640 --> 00:53:16,880
wild oh breath of the wild is the greatest game of all time do you hear about

755
00:53:14,559 --> 00:53:19,839
breath of wild too i don't think i care oh

756
00:53:17,839 --> 00:53:22,240
what was magic about breath of the wild was how

757
00:53:21,119 --> 00:53:27,119
utterly different it was i had no temptation

758
00:53:24,800 --> 00:53:31,760
whatsoever to download the dlc okay i was just like

759
00:53:30,079 --> 00:53:34,880
i was like you know what that was a great contained experience yeah you know

760
00:53:33,440 --> 00:53:37,920
when you finish happy with my music a really great book

761
00:53:36,480 --> 00:53:41,359
yep and you close the last cover and you

762
00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:45,599
kind of sit there and you go wow

763
00:53:43,839 --> 00:53:50,400
they didn't produce season eight i'm awesome yeah yeah i'm kind of done but i men i

764
00:53:48,960 --> 00:53:53,280
put so many hours into breath of the wild like i just

765
00:53:52,079 --> 00:53:59,040
i uh i yeah i i i tried to tell myself no final

766
00:53:56,720 --> 00:54:01,920
fantasy 6 is still my favorite game but

767
00:53:59,760 --> 00:54:05,680
it's just not like breath of the wild final fantasy 6 i still i i adore the

768
00:54:04,480 --> 00:54:09,760
characters um

769
00:54:08,000 --> 00:54:13,520
but if i you know if i go back and i play it as an adult who knows my way

770
00:54:11,520 --> 00:54:18,400
through the game there's actually not a lot that happens

771
00:54:16,480 --> 00:54:21,599
whereas and you know what i think the same is probably true for cross code

772
00:54:19,920 --> 00:54:26,240
cross code can get a little grindy at times not that much actually happens but

773
00:54:24,160 --> 00:54:28,640
what's great about it is i absolutely adore

774
00:54:27,359 --> 00:54:32,480
the characters i still there's a strong connection

775
00:54:30,400 --> 00:54:35,680
there i went back and played some of more wind recently yeah more wins the

776
00:54:34,640 --> 00:54:40,559
game that i've always said is my favorite game um and i think

777
00:54:38,880 --> 00:54:47,119
i think it still is but but i don't think i would have the

778
00:54:44,559 --> 00:54:50,880
time or the patience now to play it the way you did yes and to get out of it

779
00:54:49,040 --> 00:54:55,040
what you did yes that makes sense i don't think i could extract the

780
00:54:52,800 --> 00:54:59,920
experience i had with morrowind anymore which makes me really sad

781
00:54:57,680 --> 00:55:04,000
but like you're done growed up yeah to a certain degree because like the thing

782
00:55:01,760 --> 00:55:06,800
with morrowind was i the game starts they give you this like

783
00:55:05,520 --> 00:55:12,000
package thing and you're supposed to go give it to someone and it was worth

784
00:55:08,800 --> 00:55:14,400
something so i just sold it all the time

785
00:55:12,000 --> 00:55:17,839
and that was what started the main quest so i actually really thoroughly enjoyed

786
00:55:16,720 --> 00:55:24,079
the game for like months before i realized the game had a main

787
00:55:21,680 --> 00:55:27,920
quest yep and i was like oh god and then this unlocked this whole

788
00:55:26,400 --> 00:55:32,480
other part of the game and it was it was very interesting to wander and explore

789
00:55:30,640 --> 00:55:36,559
and i don't have the now i'm like i have time to play game i

790
00:55:34,480 --> 00:55:40,240
must extract enjoyment out of game as much as possible not just i'm gonna go

791
00:55:38,640 --> 00:55:44,800
enjoy myself and that's what was so magical about breath of the wild to me

792
00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:48,720
so most of the games that i've loved a lot have been because i love the

793
00:55:47,200 --> 00:55:52,319
characters like even some of the less popular final fantasies um

794
00:55:51,520 --> 00:55:58,000
i actually know most of them the characters are kind of cliche i've

795
00:55:55,680 --> 00:56:01,599
really loved six um uh so it's because i love the characters

796
00:56:00,319 --> 00:56:06,799
um and that was something that was a little bit different for breath of the wild because i loved

797
00:56:04,880 --> 00:56:11,760
the exploration not the uh

798
00:56:08,799 --> 00:56:14,839
like the link character is

799
00:56:12,880 --> 00:56:19,839
utterly uninteresting to me okay

800
00:56:17,040 --> 00:56:22,079
there's not much to him no no the zelda character

801
00:56:20,960 --> 00:56:27,599
is she might as well be princess peach

802
00:56:25,280 --> 00:56:32,160
they are completely interchangeable to me they're like

803
00:56:29,040 --> 00:56:33,760
um a damsel in distress but over the

804
00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:38,880
years because uh you know empowerment they have become

805
00:56:36,319 --> 00:56:42,960
strong independent women and that's great

806
00:56:40,319 --> 00:56:45,839
but that doesn't that's still completely two-dimensional

807
00:56:46,319 --> 00:56:53,839
and you know what i'm sure that there's like supplementary manga or something

808
00:56:52,319 --> 00:56:57,680
like sure yeah some type of additional some people

809
00:56:56,079 --> 00:57:01,280
only play the games and you gotta get you gotta if you read

810
00:56:59,839 --> 00:57:04,799
the lore you gotta give me something to work with here like link is literally a

811
00:57:03,040 --> 00:57:08,880
silent protagonist um and and that's that's a storytelling

812
00:57:07,359 --> 00:57:12,240
mechanism but but what was magical about breath of the wild was definitely the

813
00:57:10,400 --> 00:57:15,680
exploration what i usually love about games is the characters so it's just

814
00:57:14,240 --> 00:57:19,599
it's hard for me to admit that my favorite game is not one that's about

815
00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:25,119
the characters especially because i would never go and explore a world that

816
00:57:22,079 --> 00:57:26,559
i've already explored but i might go

817
00:57:25,119 --> 00:57:31,280
have a story retold to me about characters that i

818
00:57:28,559 --> 00:57:35,200
love so for me breath of the wild has no replay value

819
00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:39,200
whereas i have played final fantasy 6 through to the end

820
00:57:36,720 --> 00:57:44,079
at least half a dozen times i'm like and almost through probably 20 times to

821
00:57:41,359 --> 00:57:47,839
reaffirm all of these points it's on the same map

822
00:57:45,680 --> 00:57:50,559
oof yeah

823
00:57:48,799 --> 00:57:54,480
yeah there's no it's like effectively and you said i wouldn't buy a dlc they

824
00:57:52,319 --> 00:57:58,559
were they in in one of their interviews they basically said

825
00:57:56,319 --> 00:58:03,359
it would have made sense to be a dlc if dlcs were conventionally seen as like

826
00:58:01,599 --> 00:58:07,040
multitudes bigger than what they are so it's an expansion pack it's basically so

827
00:58:05,280 --> 00:58:10,799
we're back to that yeah it will okay they're saying it's like

828
00:58:08,480 --> 00:58:14,079
the majority's mask i never played majora's mask me neither

829
00:58:12,400 --> 00:58:17,920
actually so i don't know how accurate this is but the majority is maxed to

830
00:58:16,240 --> 00:58:22,079
ocarina of time except it's on the same map it's an expansion panel

831
00:58:20,000 --> 00:58:25,280
yeah it's like a really big expansion pack yeah but the expansion packs are

832
00:58:23,839 --> 00:58:27,760
really big yeah what are you doing

833
00:58:28,960 --> 00:58:34,000
oh no i was going further back than that i was actually going to use warcraft 2.

834
00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:39,040
i'm trying to remember don't don't tell me don't tell me it's warcraft 2 tides of darkness beyond the dark portal yeah

835
00:58:37,520 --> 00:58:42,960
uh it's it's beyond the dark portal the beyond the dark portal campaign is just

836
00:58:40,880 --> 00:58:45,599
as long as the tides of darkness came but i remember correctly frozen throne

837
00:58:44,160 --> 00:58:49,680
campaign is just as long it's just as long you're right it is and and it like

838
00:58:47,920 --> 00:58:52,720
completely overhauls and changes the game but it's the same sort of supreme

839
00:58:51,280 --> 00:58:56,160
commander's expansion pack had a campaign that was just as long and added a race

840
00:58:55,359 --> 00:59:01,359
like it's an expansion pack yeah we just don't call them that

841
00:58:59,040 --> 00:59:06,559
anymore i guess is someone dying oh it's possible

842
00:59:04,799 --> 00:59:10,160
all right time for all right actually was there anything else you really wanted to hit today because otherwise i

843
00:59:08,640 --> 00:59:15,440
was going to do some super chats uh we've uh we should maybe talk about uh

844
00:59:12,799 --> 00:59:22,559
ltx because there's a thing oh right there's like a ton of ltx news yeah um

845
00:59:19,839 --> 00:59:27,280
okay vrc car is going to include four cars but isn't a race anymore it's now a

846
00:59:25,119 --> 00:59:30,160
first person view experience so we're designing the tracks and it'll include

847
00:59:28,720 --> 00:59:34,640
some fun little easter eggs for you guys to find um

848
00:59:32,799 --> 00:59:39,920
that's probably a good idea we'll be playing robo recall vacation simulator

849
00:59:36,960 --> 00:59:45,200
and winlands2 at the vr experience booth that will include eight htc vibes a big

850
00:59:42,720 --> 00:59:48,559
step up from last year's three vives and because we couldn't find a sponsor for

851
00:59:46,720 --> 00:59:52,079
it i have to buy them oof yeah

852
00:59:50,880 --> 00:59:56,960
one of them is going to be my personal vibe because i don't say like i think you guys have

853
00:59:55,359 --> 01:00:02,880
still i don't think so i don't know where it is oh i don't think we have it sure i don't

854
01:00:00,559 --> 01:00:07,040

01:01:03,040 --> 01:01:09,440
then we've got a panel running a youtube business the early years that should be an interesting one now i'm not the only

870
01:01:08,160 --> 01:01:14,079
one on all these panels we're actually going to be leaning on some of our creators um to come up and help us with

871
01:01:13,200 --> 01:01:19,839
these um twitter slash float playing q a with

872

the second day uh world of warships tournament with linus never played the game so that'll

874
01:01:24,480 --> 01:01:30,079
be interesting apparently i get it i get like a stacked

875
01:01:27,520 --> 01:01:34,319
like special ship that's like uh ltt colored and stuff what so

876
01:01:32,319 --> 01:01:37,520
like people so i because i don't know how to play the game i

877
01:01:35,839 --> 01:01:41,920
have kind of an advantage so i don't know it might be interesting

878
01:01:39,040 --> 01:01:46,880
uh pc versus mac panel uh budget versus performance panel award ceremony and a

879
01:01:44,079 --> 01:01:50,160
farewell uh msi is apparently sending us 20 little lucky dragons to sell and

880
01:01:49,119 --> 01:01:55,839
build on the floor plan oh my goodness we're showing the floor plan

881
01:01:53,839 --> 01:02:02,960
look at all the updates today hold up those boc seats oh yeah we expanded it

882
01:01:59,760 --> 01:02:04,640
um heck yeah okay so

883
01:02:02,960 --> 01:02:07,839
here's what we're looking oh my goodness this is a little small i can't read all

884
01:02:06,160 --> 01:02:13,760
this stuff it's gigantic though so this is 590 byoc seats this is pc free play

885
01:02:11,440 --> 01:02:19,040
where the systems are already there uh vip slash staff slash krubiosc so that's

886
01:02:16,640 --> 01:02:23,040
where you'll be luke okay um here's a stream zone so this is all kind of like

887
01:02:21,119 --> 01:02:27,760
dream hacky things then we've got the stage then over here you've got ltx and

888
01:02:26,079 --> 01:02:31,839
i'm having a hard time reading so the vip staff crew bric that's float plane

889
01:02:30,319 --> 01:02:36,240
is going to be in there as well uh yeah yeah yeah okay yeah

890
01:02:33,440 --> 01:02:39,599
um and then over here is the indie zone i believe this is the case toss

891
01:02:38,400 --> 01:02:44,720
um i can't read any of this stuff but

892
01:02:42,079 --> 01:02:50,160
maybe it's i don't know it's super awesome oh

893
01:02:47,599 --> 01:02:56,079
yes so this is a problem um free geek

894
01:02:52,799 --> 01:02:58,400
is uh actually kind of in trouble

895
01:02:56,079 --> 01:03:02,960
um so we just wanted to take a moment to shout them out big time for being such

896
01:03:00,319 --> 01:03:06,240
an amazing supporter of ltx without them we wouldn't have been able

897
01:03:04,559 --> 01:03:10,319
to get the hundreds of dead motherboards to use as the motherboard house of cards

898
01:03:08,400 --> 01:03:14,240
booth they provided 20 plus cases to throw at the infamous case toss they

899
01:03:12,480 --> 01:03:17,119
sourced 20 computers for us to use in the pc build workshop like dead

900
01:03:15,680 --> 01:03:20,400
components that people can learn to assemble sent us a number of unique

901
01:03:19,119 --> 01:03:26,240
motherboards for the guess that motherboard booth a lot of this would have been difficult

902
01:03:23,839 --> 01:03:30,079
if not impossible to do without them so free geek is a vancouver-based

903
01:03:27,839 --> 01:03:34,160
non-profit community organization that reuses and recycles donated electronics

904
01:03:32,400 --> 01:03:38,400
they offer education job skills training and provide free or low-cost computers

905
01:03:36,720 --> 01:03:43,280
to the public they've been an integral part of the event and they're in a bit

906
01:03:40,160 --> 01:03:46,480
of a tough spot right now

907
01:03:43,280 --> 01:03:48,400
because recycling rates are falling and

908
01:03:46,480 --> 01:03:53,280
um you know what not too much details but we'd really appreciate your guys's

909
01:03:51,039 --> 01:03:57,520
help to help them keep their doors open it what they do is kind of important so

910
01:03:55,520 --> 01:04:01,440
it's freegeekvancouver.org where you can go to learn how you can

911
01:03:59,440 --> 01:04:05,200
contribute because uh you know everything from

912
01:04:03,039 --> 01:04:13,200
scrapyard wars to retro mods to our sleeper pc series like

913
01:04:09,039 --> 01:04:16,319
they have hooked us up in ways that are

914
01:04:13,200 --> 01:04:18,400
like not money but just

915
01:04:16,319 --> 01:04:22,480
pc community relationship ways

916
01:04:20,319 --> 01:04:26,720
this is the kind of stuff you want in the pc community because if you think

917
01:04:24,319 --> 01:04:30,240
back to your current or maybe younger self depending on where you're at yeah

918
01:04:28,880 --> 01:04:34,640
there's a point in time where if you're really into pcs these types of outlets

919
01:04:32,880 --> 01:04:38,880
is what you need to lean on maybe the only way that you could afford one yeah

920
01:04:36,640 --> 01:04:44,480
to be completely honest so so inspiring new young or or

921
01:04:42,079 --> 01:04:49,440
uh less financially fortunate minds in our space is how is is how it grows yeah

922
01:04:48,079 --> 01:04:52,960
all right so guys go check it out that's freegeekvancouver.org

923
01:04:51,200 --> 01:04:57,680
and uh we should go ahead and call up some super chats amari says finally

924
01:04:55,839 --> 01:05:02,880
youtube premium got sick of ads good stuff and thank you for the two dollars

925
01:04:59,680 --> 01:05:06,079
um jamaican you too presumably logan

926
01:05:02,880 --> 01:05:08,240
frozen sniper you guys too sup spencer

927
01:05:06,079 --> 01:05:11,440
uh connor says what were you doing with gavin

928
01:05:09,839 --> 01:05:15,119
uh a couple of really cool things so gathering this i think

929
01:05:13,359 --> 01:05:19,359
knows what you're doing no they don't that video is not up yet oh

930
01:05:17,200 --> 01:05:24,240
so uh we did a couple of things we determined once and for all whether

931
01:05:22,400 --> 01:05:28,160
240 hertz monitors have an advantage over 60 hertz

932
01:05:26,400 --> 01:05:31,839
for gamers oh yeah and in a bunch of really interesting

933
01:05:30,880 --> 01:05:37,680
ways so does it affect reaction time

934
01:05:34,720 --> 01:05:43,680
does it affect your kill rate does it affect the way that you aim

935
01:05:40,799 --> 01:05:46,400
so we used slow motion 1000 frame per second footage

936
01:05:44,960 --> 01:05:50,880
to watch how a gamer reacts at 60hz versus

937
01:05:49,599 --> 01:05:55,920
did you watch ed we did okay good wow he's a lot better

938
01:05:53,680 --> 01:05:59,359
at 240 hertz but i won't spoil anything else about it because the findings with

939
01:05:57,359 --> 01:06:02,880
me and gavin were also interesting but in completely different ways yeah i was

940
01:06:01,440 --> 01:06:09,039
i was i was hoping you were doing a spectrum but if you weren't doing a spectrum i was hoping it was ed we were

941
01:06:06,400 --> 01:06:14,079
yeah so we had ed at the top at the top end we had gavin as more of like a

942
01:06:11,839 --> 01:06:21,200
casual and then we had me as sort of like i used to be okay i guess

943
01:06:18,559 --> 01:06:26,160
you're good at games my aim is fantastic actually my spread was pretty close to

944
01:06:23,520 --> 01:06:29,680
ed's wow but um what game my

945
01:06:28,319 --> 01:06:36,079
my kill time was much higher

946
01:06:32,799 --> 01:06:38,480
uh we used cs go with an auto snipe okay

947
01:06:36,079 --> 01:06:43,440
uh and then we had uh we had a target basically at an at an undetermined

948
01:06:41,359 --> 01:06:48,000
time uh well the reason for the auto snipe was we wanted to give the um if

949
01:06:46,240 --> 01:06:51,440
you got a head shot you took him down in one we told everyone to go for head

950
01:06:49,359 --> 01:06:54,160
shots but if you hit a body shot we wanted it to be possible to take down

951
01:06:52,880 --> 01:06:58,559
the target in the time that you had while they ran across the hallway okay

952
01:06:56,400 --> 01:07:02,480
um so you basically had to you had a pixel that you had to point at

953
01:07:00,880 --> 01:07:06,079
and then you didn't know when it was going to come and you had to take them

954
01:07:04,799 --> 01:07:11,520
out as fast as you could as you ran across so interesting very interesting really

955
01:07:08,880 --> 01:07:15,359
really cool test and then uh what we did with the knowledge that we gained from

956
01:07:13,280 --> 01:07:20,000
working with gavin was we produced a second video the next day determining

957
01:07:18,079 --> 01:07:23,520
once and for all whether wireless mice

958
01:07:22,079 --> 01:07:30,000
are slower so we devised a mechanism

959
01:07:26,079 --> 01:07:31,839
to hit a mouse complete a circuit

960
01:07:30,000 --> 01:07:35,680
light up a light to show us the exact moment that they make contact and then

961
01:07:34,079 --> 01:07:39,839
we were able to use one millisecond frames at a thousand

962
01:07:37,599 --> 01:07:44,960
frames per second to see how long it takes the um the crosshair

963
01:07:42,960 --> 01:07:49,280
on the monitor behind it to start to move so we were we weren't

964
01:07:47,359 --> 01:07:53,920
able to actually determine down to one millisecond which mouse was faster

965
01:07:52,400 --> 01:07:58,559
because we don't have the equipment to measure that we can't intercept the signal from the mouse but we were able

966
01:07:57,520 --> 01:08:02,319
to tell if any monitor on the market could

967
01:08:00,960 --> 01:08:06,559
possibly give you the feedback fast enough that

968
01:08:04,319 --> 01:08:10,880
you could detect a difference yeah and it's going to be a really really

969
01:08:08,160 --> 01:08:14,240
interesting video um so that's what i was doing with gavin

970
01:08:12,240 --> 01:08:17,440
commissioner says if the 64 core threadripper was cheap not sure where

971
01:08:16,159 --> 01:08:23,679
you're going with that because it sure as heck won't be uh sup jason will briggs westerlai

972
01:08:22,000 --> 01:08:27,759
uh derek youtube premium gives free super chats i

973
01:08:25,440 --> 01:08:32,400
think that's what like most of this is zach says put it towards some tooling

974
01:08:29,520 --> 01:08:38,080
for the mill uh oh man that workshop is gonna be freaking awesome see bart

975
01:08:34,719 --> 01:08:40,480
hashtag save channel super fun 20 bucks

976
01:08:38,080 --> 01:08:44,960
if only it were that only almost 20 bucks you know what's really funny is it

977
01:08:42,880 --> 01:08:50,239
is not impossible that channel super fun could end up resurrected as part of this

978
01:08:46,880 --> 01:08:52,400
diversification push we'll see

979
01:08:50,239 --> 01:08:56,880
it's not dead it's just you want to support you want to know a

980
01:08:54,080 --> 01:08:59,920
fun a fun little fact here remember the pigeon

981
01:08:58,000 --> 01:09:02,719
the pigeon was it i think it's called a pigeon

982
01:09:01,040 --> 01:09:06,400
um apple pigeon

983
01:09:04,839 --> 01:09:09,679
console pippin oh the pippin yeah yeah the app

984
01:09:08,239 --> 01:09:13,359
mark it's that it's probably paid for itself by now

985
01:09:11,759 --> 01:09:16,400
has it it's like three million views or something really yeah how much did we

986
01:09:14,880 --> 01:09:22,319
pay for that stupid thing again i think it was 500 bucks oh

987
01:09:20,080 --> 01:09:26,159
can literally buy like a brand new xbox one x for what we paid for the worst

988
01:09:24,560 --> 01:09:29,120
console and like a game and some controllers yeah

989
01:09:29,199 --> 01:09:34,880
yeah three million views hell yeah what's up nick you guys talking about

990
01:09:32,719 --> 01:09:38,560
merce oh oh he wants us to talk about the merch

991
01:09:35,920 --> 01:09:43,359
so this this is our hot item right now this hoodie is finally for sale yeah did

992
01:09:40,880 --> 01:09:47,199
you get one yet okay oh really

993
01:09:44,719 --> 01:09:51,679
ouch nick is my savior because my luggage was lost

994
01:09:48,719 --> 01:09:54,719
you lost it no i did not no an airline did

995
01:09:55,280 --> 01:10:01,520
an airline did a hundred percent okay and my sweater was in there but nick

996
01:10:00,000 --> 01:10:05,040
nick swooped in and got me another one all right so this is the one

997
01:10:03,520 --> 01:10:08,719
he did but either way this is the one that's

998
01:10:07,199 --> 01:10:12,560
like the hot seller on the store right now it's nttstore.com

999
01:10:10,800 --> 01:10:16,880
it's got like a little oh it's got a little logo here it's got

1000
01:10:14,880 --> 01:10:21,360
the phone pocket on this side that holds even really big phones this is an early

1001
01:10:18,560 --> 01:10:24,719
prototype so actually the um we had enlarged the phone pocket

1002
01:10:23,280 --> 01:10:29,920
after this one because it didn't really fit very well it was like hard to get it in and out

1003
01:10:27,679 --> 01:10:33,440
also this one see how yours goes a little bit lower

1004
01:10:31,440 --> 01:10:36,960
we made it about an inch longer because this is an early one because it was

1005
01:10:34,880 --> 01:10:42,800
always riding up on me like that i also have a rather tall torso and it fits on

1006
01:10:40,000 --> 01:10:46,960
me perfectly fine i know some people ask about how different fitting things

1007
01:10:44,640 --> 01:10:51,280
work so yeah we change the zipper to ykk instead of whatever this is that's

1008
01:10:49,120 --> 01:10:54,719
that's good yeah so we made some quality and some

1009
01:10:52,800 --> 01:11:00,159
wearability improvements that's why these projects take so

1010
01:10:56,960 --> 01:11:01,920
long because you're sending feedback

1011
01:11:00,159 --> 01:11:04,800
you're waiting for new samples you're sending more feedback you're waiting for

1012
01:11:03,280 --> 01:11:08,960
new samples if it was just as simple as like getting a shirt printed this merch

1013
01:11:07,199 --> 01:11:13,520
stuff would have paid for itself ages ago as it is were

1014
01:11:11,120 --> 01:11:16,800
okay so we're making money on every item we sell but we're deep in the red in

1015
01:11:15,360 --> 01:11:22,480
terms of the total investment that we put in but honestly i'm so much happier

1016
01:11:20,080 --> 01:11:26,880
like wearing our stuff okay as an outside party the the stuff i was

1017
01:11:24,880 --> 01:11:30,880
most upset about losing in that like okay one random little tidbit i lost

1018
01:11:29,120 --> 01:11:35,120
literally every single pair of bottoms that i own except for these shorts that

1019
01:11:32,560 --> 01:11:38,159
i'm wearing in that luggage so wow i don't have very many bars it's gonna

1020
01:11:36,320 --> 01:11:41,280
take you a long time to get free bottoms to replace those bottoms because i know

1021
01:11:39,440 --> 01:11:44,560
you won't pay that's why i only had that many i know it's because trust me those

1022
01:11:43,040 --> 01:11:47,679
are the same jeans i've had for like seven years i believe you

1023
01:11:47,760 --> 01:11:53,840
but okay as an outside source the shirts are insanely comfortable the

1024
01:11:51,840 --> 01:11:57,600
constellation one is actually my like favorite shirt which is also gone out of

1025
01:11:55,679 --> 01:12:01,840
stock right now we're working on getting more uh the problem is we can't get that

1026
01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:07,520
color of shirt and so we're working on an overseas source um but unless it

1027
01:12:04,960 --> 01:12:12,239
meets the standard of the ones that we are using now we are just we'd rather be

1028
01:12:10,080 --> 01:12:15,679
completely out of stock and not sell anything than compromise anymore i'm

1029
01:12:14,159 --> 01:12:18,480
just tired of it and it's insane i'm just going to step in again still

1030
01:12:17,199 --> 01:12:24,159
outside source your shirts are 20 bucks yeah basically no influencer shirts are

1031
01:12:22,400 --> 01:12:27,760
20 bucks right now twenty dollars a shirt is the like

1032
01:12:25,679 --> 01:12:31,040
five to ten years ago pricing for most of this kind of stuff which is pretty

1033
01:12:29,360 --> 01:12:36,560
awesome the shirts feel great the printing's great the sweaters are thin

1034
01:12:34,000 --> 01:12:40,800
which is usually bad but it's not no because it's like it's like a a french

1035
01:12:38,880 --> 01:12:44,640
terry yeah like it's not like a cheap thin it's i haven't had a sweater like

1036
01:12:42,560 --> 01:12:49,520
this before so every thin sweater that i've had sucked this one's fantastic i

1037
01:12:46,880 --> 01:12:52,800
slept with it over my face when i didn't have a another option while i was in

1038
01:12:51,120 --> 01:12:56,000
taiwan it was great and then it's gone but i was really sad and i got a new one

1039
01:12:54,400 --> 01:13:00,000
we're trying to we're trying to keep the pricing reasonable that's like yeah 60

1040
01:12:58,320 --> 01:13:04,239
bucks for a sweater again it's sweaters are kind of expensive but

1041
01:13:02,320 --> 01:13:08,159
it takes us a long time to make this stuff so yeah

1042
01:13:05,840 --> 01:13:12,000
yeah it is what it is go buy some pants well i have to now okay

1043
01:13:10,800 --> 01:13:15,199
so i will start uh lloyd really wants to do

1044
01:13:14,080 --> 01:13:19,120
joggers so joggers would be dope i i don't

1045
01:13:17,199 --> 01:13:22,800
really like them though so my my new thing my new thing with the merch

1046
01:13:20,640 --> 01:13:25,520
actually i i listened to a talk from kris jenner of all people

1047
01:13:24,640 --> 01:13:30,640
um you know what you can say what you want about the content but you have to

1048
01:13:28,400 --> 01:13:34,800
respect the business savvy uh and she was like

1049
01:13:33,280 --> 01:13:38,239
look focus

1050
01:13:36,400 --> 01:13:42,320
focus on what you actually are passionate about

1051
01:13:39,679 --> 01:13:46,320
and it's a lot harder to screw up and so i'm going you know so i i so i

1052
01:13:44,320 --> 01:13:51,040
got back to the office and i canceled the joggers project because i don't care

1053
01:13:48,640 --> 01:13:54,880
about them okay and i was like nope we're gonna do stuff that like i care

1054
01:13:53,040 --> 01:13:58,159
about a lot so the underwear that's coming yeah

1055
01:13:56,239 --> 01:14:03,120
it's really nice okay good because i lost also a very high percentage of my

1056
01:14:01,040 --> 01:14:06,320
underwear the underwear the underwear fairly soon literally my entire wardrobe

1057
01:14:05,040 --> 01:14:11,199
was just gonna be ltd stuff the underwear which i'm okay with it's like

1058
01:14:08,880 --> 01:14:15,280
really nice yeah that's awesome anyway uh conor says can you recommend a

1059
01:14:13,360 --> 01:14:17,920
battery pack that can power a usb c powered laptop i don't know anything

1060
01:14:16,800 --> 01:14:24,000
from like like anchor stuff he's pretty good anchor just go anchor i guess

1061
01:14:22,000 --> 01:14:28,480
um weekend gaming nerds about i'm we're

1062
01:14:25,440 --> 01:14:31,600
getting so many free super chats guys

1063
01:14:28,480 --> 01:14:32,880
thank you uh twigs darkstalker azaril

yeah but if you but you can also identify it yeah yeah

1067
01:14:48,320 --> 01:14:54,159
uh distro tube this show is cool have you guys ever considered switching to

1068
01:14:51,920 --> 01:14:58,000
new lift news linux find out more about free software

1069
01:14:56,080 --> 01:15:02,159
software freedom and the new project at new.org

1070
01:14:59,360 --> 01:15:04,400
oh thank you sweet we had never heard of that

1071
01:15:04,800 --> 01:15:11,360
let me get right on that for our adobe premiere editing workflow

1072
01:15:09,120 --> 01:15:15,040
well i'm not i'm not trying to be a hater we use

1073
01:15:13,120 --> 01:15:19,360
linux where it makes sense like our storage servers for example

1074
01:15:17,600 --> 01:15:23,360
all of luke float playing crap runs on linux yeah but

1075
01:15:21,360 --> 01:15:26,800
we're not ready to advocate switching to linux for like a media production

1076
01:15:25,040 --> 01:15:30,880
environment it's not it's not a thing yet and before you

1077
01:15:29,600 --> 01:15:35,760
send another super chat which i appreciate by the way about davinci resolve yes we're aware of it but it

1078
01:15:33,920 --> 01:15:39,520
doesn't do everything um

1079
01:15:37,760 --> 01:15:42,080
michael freddie from lazar

1080
01:15:40,960 --> 01:15:48,800
lachlan danny um arash thank you very much uh midland

1081
01:15:47,440 --> 01:15:52,719
says good evening guys wondering if there's a way to clone an internal ssd

1082
01:15:50,480 --> 01:15:56,080
to an internal software raid1 ssd array that is a tremendous question and i have

1083
01:15:54,880 --> 01:16:01,199
actually tried to figure out how to do it i don't

1084
01:15:58,400 --> 01:16:06,400
know why with the intel raid when you create it you can't just say

1085
01:16:04,880 --> 01:16:11,840
hey all of that that one drive that one's good

1086
01:16:09,840 --> 01:16:14,560
all of that to the other one too you have to clear them when you create

1087
01:16:13,280 --> 01:16:20,640
it and it seems like the kind of thing that i do know that there are um

1088
01:16:18,719 --> 01:16:24,560
like there are values that you that you write when you create a raid that kind

1089
01:16:22,239 --> 01:16:27,760
of tie the two together it just seems like the kind of thing that someone over

1090
01:16:26,239 --> 01:16:31,600
the last couple of decades might have engineered a solution to by now

1091
01:16:29,760 --> 01:16:35,280
as far as i'm aware um

1092
01:16:33,040 --> 01:16:38,560
i i don't know of a way to do it i'm sorry

1093
01:16:36,320 --> 01:16:40,800
rehan uh says the search on floatplane is there but doesn't seem to be

1094
01:16:39,520 --> 01:16:44,719
effective yeah i know they're working on it yep

1095
01:16:42,800 --> 01:16:49,280
uh there's actually like a fix for it but it's just not up yet uh lorenz sorry

1096
01:16:47,679 --> 01:16:54,080
don't think about quitting i really miss you lately on the channel don't worry i'm i'm not going anywhere

1097
01:16:52,320 --> 01:16:57,920
uh qwerty to be honest i love all the other staff but if you're done i am too

01:17:00,080 --> 01:17:05,120
also i appreciate the support for the rest of the staff because

1100
01:17:03,760 --> 01:17:11,360
they're awesome um niche requests podcasts interesting ben

1101
01:17:10,000 --> 01:17:16,400
burrell says watercool the new mac pro we're going to create our own this is a podcast yeah this is a podcast by the

1102
01:17:14,719 --> 01:17:22,320
way we already have a podcast uh jacksonville said story driven podcasts

1103
01:17:19,679 --> 01:17:26,400
like reply all uh watching your rig upgrade thunderbolt config is it still

1104
01:17:24,320 --> 01:17:30,400
in the closet okay so i had to rip the gigabyte board back out that night and

1105
01:17:28,480 --> 01:17:34,400
put my old board back in because i don't have a thunderbolt 3d

1106
01:17:31,679 --> 01:17:37,600
thunderbolt 2 adapter so really sad story especially because

1107
01:17:36,080 --> 01:17:41,920
brandon and i stayed late to finish that video oh no so i ended up reusing that

1108
01:17:39,760 --> 01:17:44,320
motherboard in a you know what i won't spoil it but

1109
01:17:42,960 --> 01:17:47,679
there's more videos coming up that narrative is far from done

1110
01:17:46,560 --> 01:17:52,800
uh now bill says hey linus you're paying too much attention to the feedback great

1111
01:17:51,440 --> 01:17:56,719
to have the feedback but do what you like man we enjoy seeing you stop do the

1112
01:17:54,480 --> 01:18:01,120
stuff you enjoy so that's good that's important but also i do need to take

1113
01:17:59,280 --> 01:18:06,080
feedback because it does matter too it's just like filtering it that's the key

1114
