WEBVTT

00:00:00.000 --> 00:00:04.720
works peter was researching something the

00:00:03.040 --> 00:00:09.760
other day and one of our one of our videos that was uh me on techwiki

00:00:08.160 --> 00:00:14.480
like teaching something was in the thread oh that's of like the person teaching

00:00:12.719 --> 00:00:18.800
something to peter and i was like this is nuts ready yep

00:00:20.000 --> 00:00:27.519
hey welcome to the WAN Show guys we've got a great show for you today i hope

00:00:25.519 --> 00:00:32.000
yeah i actually haven't seen this guy in like a month three weeks something like

00:00:29.679 --> 00:00:36.239
that yeah he's been like cavorting about in asia yeah perfectly innocent though

00:00:35.360 --> 00:00:44.160
no weird kinds of tourism

00:00:40.000 --> 00:00:46.160
it was taiwan not yeah not not thailand

00:00:44.160 --> 00:00:50.320
taiwan um anyways let's roll the intro

00:00:55.920 --> 00:00:59.239
oh boy

00:01:02.239 --> 00:01:05.519
oh man

00:01:05.519 --> 00:01:09.040
this is not gonna be a good show

00:01:09.920 --> 00:01:14.640
we are off to a real rough start here

00:01:13.200 --> 00:01:19.119
yeah yeah yeah but that's okay because it's not

00:01:17.200 --> 00:01:24.960
about how you start it's about the big finish

00:01:24.960 --> 00:01:30.159
would you believe i'm trying to hire a new writing staff

00:01:30.640 --> 00:01:36.720
would you believe that this is like part of the process like how many dick jokes

00:01:34.960 --> 00:01:41.280
you can come up with oh and during the interview no no definitely not there's

00:01:39.520 --> 00:01:45.759
there are bonus points for saying that they think i'm funny though only one

00:01:43.040 --> 00:01:49.520
person did it today so um you know i want to commend that one individual one

00:01:47.600 --> 00:01:54.159
person on their honesty oh yes yeah i want to commend them on

00:01:51.759 --> 00:01:57.600
their honesty because everyone else they're like closet thinking i'm funny

00:01:55.920 --> 00:02:01.040
because i know everyone thinks i'm funny of course yeah not so much all right

00:01:59.040 --> 00:02:05.119
fine fair that's fine yeah no i'm actually finally um

00:02:03.360 --> 00:02:08.879
finishing up the writer search that i started four months

00:02:07.600 --> 00:02:13.440
ago or something like that i've been traveling so much that i just have not

00:02:10.720 --> 00:02:17.520
had time to do it properly and i would rather

00:02:14.959 --> 00:02:22.480
just have it take too long and go through everyone fairly versus you

00:02:19.840 --> 00:02:27.200
know trying to spread it out over um you know many weeks and then like the

00:02:25.599 --> 00:02:30.000
people that i evaluated at the beginning maybe i'm not using the same standards

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

00:02:32.800 --> 00:02:39.120
um and so we've uh started our interviews

00:02:36.879 --> 00:02:42.080
we're not quite done interviews yet but um we're looking to make a decision

00:02:40.640 --> 00:02:46.640
pretty soon so we're going to be increasing the writing side writing team

00:02:43.920 --> 00:02:49.680
size here by like 40

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

00:02:51.760 --> 00:02:57.519
oh wow i thought this was one position no

00:02:55.360 --> 00:02:59.599
holy cow yeah two to three are you

00:02:58.400 --> 00:03:03.280
that i've are you expanding channels

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

00:03:05.760 --> 00:03:10.480
yet okay but um actually so you don't

00:03:08.800 --> 00:03:13.120
attend Linus media group monday morning meetings anymore because you are not an

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

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

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

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

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

00:03:31.120 --> 00:03:37.200
was talking about um some of the changes that have been taking place on youtube

00:03:34.879 --> 00:03:41.280
lately and how they've affected our channels yeah yeah um you know youtube

00:03:39.040 --> 00:03:45.680
won't admit anything um i've never i've had correspondence with them not just

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

00:03:47.760 --> 00:03:54.400
believe when he tells me you know nothing changes or nothing has changed

00:03:52.239 --> 00:03:57.840
or that it's machine learning and nothing discreet was changed but that

00:03:56.080 --> 00:04:01.680
doesn't mean that it isn't always learning and always changing

00:03:59.519 --> 00:04:05.439
and i've even gone higher up the food chain than that

00:04:03.360 --> 00:04:10.799
and everyone insists we didn't change anything we tweaked no dials but i just

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

00:04:12.879 --> 00:04:20.560
things that youtube says like i went to brandcast and youtube's talking about um

00:04:19.519 --> 00:04:25.520
you know um raising authoritative voices

00:04:24.160 --> 00:04:29.600
when it comes to trying to make sure that they're a platform that promotes credible

00:04:28.320 --> 00:04:35.680
information but can you raise an authoritative voice

00:04:32.639 --> 00:04:37.280
without suppressing yeah another one

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

00:04:39.360 --> 00:04:46.000
you can't yeah you can't elevate something without pushing something else

00:04:44.000 --> 00:04:50.000
down that's just the way it works especially when sorry to jump in here

00:04:47.440 --> 00:04:54.560
for a second but youtube kind of at this point like has the population like they

00:04:52.960 --> 00:04:58.960
don't really have a ton of expanding more to do other than people getting

00:04:56.639 --> 00:05:02.400
internet or people getting to the age where they can watch their own youtube

00:05:00.720 --> 00:05:07.919
fun fact they're no longer going to report on unique uh unique visitor

00:05:05.919 --> 00:05:12.800
increases anymore interesting you know why because they're already over two billion

00:05:11.919 --> 00:05:18.000
a month oh my gosh so like yeah so like who do you go for now

00:05:16.080 --> 00:05:20.960
nothing that they can do can sound impressive and sound like growth to

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

00:05:24.639 --> 00:05:32.080
talk about it anymore though because like a point one percent improvement

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

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

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

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

00:05:45.919 --> 00:05:53.039
understand it's not how it works just hold on um if you start pumping someone

00:05:50.720 --> 00:05:56.400
you have to reduce push for other people there's only

00:05:54.240 --> 00:05:59.680
so many eyeballs and you know there's been problems on youtube i

00:05:58.160 --> 00:06:04.080
understand there's more eyeballs all the time that have been identified uh like

00:06:02.160 --> 00:06:09.360
the black hole thing with conspiracy theories or flat earth or fake moon

00:06:06.560 --> 00:06:13.520
landing or anti-vaxxing or whatever else you know there's there's things that are

00:06:11.360 --> 00:06:18.840
relatively low-hanging fruit um that

00:06:16.400 --> 00:06:23.600
hold on a second one moment please

00:06:20.560 --> 00:06:23.600
technical difficulties

00:06:27.520 --> 00:06:34.960
i'm just checking to see if uh okay cool so in february youtube demonetized

00:06:32.479 --> 00:06:39.199
anti-vaxx channels uh facebook youtube to suppress anti-vaxxer content this was

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

00:06:40.720 --> 00:06:46.560
source for this so youtube is suppressing anti-vaxx content um

00:06:44.720 --> 00:06:49.360
now so oh no so there's certain things that i

00:06:48.000 --> 00:06:53.520
completely agree with because that's incredibly dangerous um anti-vaxx

00:06:51.680 --> 00:06:57.520
content not suppressing it because anti-vaxx content is super stupid

00:06:56.080 --> 00:07:02.560
um so there's things that i agree with

00:06:59.919 --> 00:07:06.800
but there's also potential collateral damage so one of the problems that was

00:07:04.400 --> 00:07:10.880
identified on social media in general not just on youtube is that once you

00:07:09.039 --> 00:07:14.800
watch like if you go okay for lulls you know you want you

00:07:13.440 --> 00:07:19.120
show a friend some stupid tai lopez video because

00:07:17.520 --> 00:07:22.560
you're like that guy you know the guy with the

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

00:07:25.599 --> 00:07:34.400
all of a sudden you're you're recommended your ads it's just full of

00:07:31.120 --> 00:07:35.520
all those bloody get rich quick youtube

00:07:34.400 --> 00:07:40.080
gurus and it's so obnoxious okay so there's

00:07:38.000 --> 00:07:44.400
this problem that's been identified in online on social media in general with

00:07:42.080 --> 00:07:48.560
echo chambers and with one search for a given topic all of a

00:07:47.039 --> 00:07:53.680
sudden just you might slightly be interested in this

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

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

00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:04.879
you might just see something on facebook

00:08:02.879 --> 00:08:09.199
and go oh it's credible it's printed in black and white like it's

00:08:06.319 --> 00:08:13.360
it's the craziest thing in the world but that same

00:08:10.639 --> 00:08:16.960
just because something is printed in the in black and white doesn't mean that

00:08:14.800 --> 00:08:20.240
it's true that same education that's been

00:08:17.919 --> 00:08:27.280
trying that people have been trying to to give to people since the freaking

00:08:22.520 --> 00:08:29.120
1800s is still a big deal today and so

00:08:27.280 --> 00:08:32.080
so what happens is you end up in this in this kind of this

00:08:30.400 --> 00:08:37.760
death spiral of fake moon landing flat earth whatever

00:08:35.120 --> 00:08:41.680
just from watching one stupid video and a lot of the people that perpetuate

00:08:39.760 --> 00:08:46.560
these conspiracy theories speak in a way that may not sound

00:08:43.760 --> 00:08:50.959
authoritative to you the educated viewer but to other people apparently does

00:08:50.240 --> 00:08:54.959
so anyway one of the ways it might sound it

00:08:53.360 --> 00:08:59.120
might not sound believable but they're trying to be authoritative almost always

00:08:57.600 --> 00:09:04.480
so like exactly it makes sense that it might sound that way exactly intent so

00:09:02.160 --> 00:09:07.040
so one of the theories we had was that in order to

00:09:05.920 --> 00:09:11.680
prevent um you know these kinds of of echo

00:09:09.760 --> 00:09:18.240
chambery things from happening youtube might have been de-emphasizing

00:09:13.920 --> 00:09:20.560
um more niche content and then pumping

00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:23.200
stuff that's safer now

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

00:09:25.360 --> 00:09:33.519
niche we're also a niche within tech like quite frankly a lot of the content

00:09:30.320 --> 00:09:35.360
that we upload would have absolutely

00:09:33.519 --> 00:09:42.160
no place on uh a more mainstream tech content

00:09:38.480 --> 00:09:44.399
channel like like marquez's like come on

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

00:09:46.880 --> 00:09:53.680
makes sense that it goes up on our channel gets fewer views etc etc etc um

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

00:09:56.000 --> 00:10:02.399
more niche and so people because we noticed the biggest dip in viewership

00:10:00.000 --> 00:10:05.760
was on our back catalog so maybe what's happening is instead of people watching

00:10:03.920 --> 00:10:10.800
one of our new videos and then getting bombarded with our

00:10:07.839 --> 00:10:15.200
massive back catalog of 4 000 videos something that had a huge benefit for us

00:10:12.800 --> 00:10:19.839
and generated a lot of subscribers maybe instead of that

00:10:16.640 --> 00:10:22.560
well they're being fed some marquez and

00:10:19.839 --> 00:10:26.000
some austin and some gamers nexus and whatever else and to be clear we love

00:10:24.560 --> 00:10:30.000
all those guys and that's cool fine whatever but it definitely did have an

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

00:10:33.680 --> 00:10:40.399
great conversations at the youtuber youtube creator summit and um derek from

00:10:38.560 --> 00:10:44.160
veritasium posted a great video did you watch that by the way

00:10:41.680 --> 00:10:50.720
posted a great video on his theory about why his shade ball video went viral

00:10:47.519 --> 00:10:52.720
and um basically his theory it's funny

00:10:50.720 --> 00:10:56.640
because i in some ways i give youtube like so much credit

00:10:54.399 --> 00:11:00.720
like that like the puppet masters or have all these different strings they're

00:10:57.839 --> 00:11:04.640
pulling on his theory was so simple that i forget whose razer it is where

00:11:02.800 --> 00:11:09.200
the simplest solution is is that occam's razor thinks so anyway

00:11:07.440 --> 00:11:15.600
yeah the simplest solution is usually the correct one his theory was as simple

00:11:11.680 --> 00:11:18.320
as youtube has taken the um

00:11:15.600 --> 00:11:22.640
the the click-through ratio that you get with your with the the the clickiness of

00:11:20.800 --> 00:11:28.800
your title and thumbnail and it has shifted the axis so that

00:11:27.120 --> 00:11:34.720
a smaller difference in click-through ratio gives it a greater proportion

00:11:32.000 --> 00:11:38.560
more promotion on the site and then a small difference the other way gives you

00:11:36.320 --> 00:11:42.480
way less so instead of it being kind of linear if your click-through ratio is

00:11:40.399 --> 00:11:46.480
great you're like way up here and if your click-through ratio sucks you're

00:11:44.079 --> 00:11:50.000
like way down here um so that was another interesting theory because we

00:11:48.079 --> 00:11:55.360
have also had our click-through ratio decreased this year as we've moved away

00:11:53.120 --> 00:11:59.600
from more click-baity titles and click baity thumbnails which sucks but it's

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

00:12:02.959 --> 00:12:09.040
guys clicked the bell yeah and then watch the video right away yeah that

00:12:06.880 --> 00:12:12.720
actually makes a huge difference even if you're not going to actually watch it

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

00:12:14.079 --> 00:12:19.120
your pocket i don't care but if you just

00:12:17.120 --> 00:12:21.920
just click and just just go about the rest of your day go watch it later

00:12:20.399 --> 00:12:26.320
doesn't matter that initial click-through ratio

00:12:24.639 --> 00:12:30.000
basically determines everything about how that video is going

00:12:28.399 --> 00:12:33.920
to perform as far as we can tell that's derrick's

00:12:31.680 --> 00:12:39.360
theory and it's so simple it might just be right yeah so anyway

00:12:36.639 --> 00:12:42.959
LTT has actually struggled in terms of viewership this year it's actually it's

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

00:12:44.959 --> 00:12:52.480
direction right now but coming back to our all hands meeting

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

00:12:54.720 --> 00:13:00.000
back i'm engaged right now coming back to our all hands meeting this monday i

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

00:13:02.399 --> 00:13:08.880
usually a little serious good news everyone yeah um i basically went look

00:13:07.600 --> 00:13:12.959
this is something that i've really struggled with not just um

00:13:10.880 --> 00:13:16.560
professionally but also personally you know trying to figure out

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

00:13:18.720 --> 00:13:27.519
audience just plain not like me anymore um is is is pc hardware losing its sex

00:13:24.800 --> 00:13:32.839
appeal like i was trying to identify what it was because unless i know what

00:13:29.360 --> 00:13:34.880
the problem is i cannot fix it and

00:13:32.839 --> 00:13:39.440
um what i ultimately came to was that there was a

00:13:37.519 --> 00:13:42.639
combination of audience sentiment things that did need to be addressed you know

00:13:41.120 --> 00:13:46.800
talking to the audience directly about things like doing less offensive thumbnails and

00:13:45.680 --> 00:13:50.639
titles that kind of thing you know making sure we're appending the

00:13:49.279 --> 00:13:53.920
the brand and the product wherever that makes sense things like that i thought

00:13:52.320 --> 00:13:57.440
that was part of it i also thought that some kind of change whether a manual

00:13:55.680 --> 00:14:01.920
change or an algorithmic change on youtube side was part of the problem and

00:13:59.920 --> 00:14:06.959
then the bigger conclusion that i came to is that maybe

00:14:04.320 --> 00:14:10.240
if we build our business correctly it just doesn't matter

00:14:09.120 --> 00:14:14.959
because where LTT has struggled this year

00:14:13.680 --> 00:14:19.760
techlinked has actually picked up

00:14:16.880 --> 00:14:24.720
nearly all of the lost watch time nearly all of the lost

00:14:22.079 --> 00:14:27.680
viewership and lost revenue and i kind of went well techland was an

00:14:26.560 --> 00:14:31.440
accident after the failure of Channel Super Fun

00:14:30.560 --> 00:14:35.279
and a bit of a stagnation period that we

00:14:33.680 --> 00:14:40.160
went through with Techquickie to be clear Techquickie's going really well

00:14:37.839 --> 00:14:42.560
right now so massive shout out to john and dennis

00:14:43.120 --> 00:14:51.360
so after kind of a stagnation period for Techquickie i was full like triple down

00:14:49.279 --> 00:14:56.480
mode on LTT i was like okay we just throw all the LTT has literally

00:14:54.079 --> 00:15:01.760
ten times as much staff as any other channel even now

00:14:59.279 --> 00:15:06.160
but what i realized is if i can't ultimately control it well something

00:15:04.079 --> 00:15:10.639
that i can control is this diversification strategy so technique

00:15:07.920 --> 00:15:14.079
happened by accident my homeboy riley lost his job because his company went

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

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

00:15:20.480 --> 00:15:25.120
on come on and you know riley he's driven to do the

00:15:24.000 --> 00:15:30.000
tech news i think we all know this he's driven to

00:15:27.440 --> 00:15:35.839
to to to do the tech news for the people um so we created techlinked and

00:15:32.560 --> 00:15:37.040
techlinked was a an accidental complete

00:15:35.839 --> 00:15:41.760
success like that channel is freaking awesome i

00:15:39.279 --> 00:15:47.519
get my tech news from TechLinked like it's awesome you get your tech news from

00:15:43.920 --> 00:15:49.680
nice i genuinely watch it all the time

00:15:47.519 --> 00:15:53.759
yeah it's great and clearly a lot of people do TechLinked regularly gets

00:15:51.920 --> 00:15:59.199
half a million views of video even only has like 700 800 000 subscribers like

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

00:16:02.480 --> 00:16:09.680
well maybe we're just maybe we're just thinking about this too narrowly

00:16:06.399 --> 00:16:12.240
maybe the answer here is to

00:16:09.680 --> 00:16:16.160
broaden the net instead because that way every time

00:16:14.000 --> 00:16:21.440
TechLinked struggles a little bit and you know needs a needs a fresh a fresh

00:16:19.120 --> 00:16:25.199
coat of lipstick or you know every time LTT

00:16:22.800 --> 00:16:28.399
loses its its groove or every time tech quick he

00:16:26.560 --> 00:16:32.880
runs out of things people need explain as if that'll ever happen

00:16:30.480 --> 00:16:36.480
something else can carry some of that weight and we can spread things out the

00:16:34.800 --> 00:16:40.720
other really cool thing about techlinked is that it doesn't rely on me

00:16:38.480 --> 00:16:44.959
yeah at the beginning of techlink i was far and away the top performing host on

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

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

00:16:51.680 --> 00:16:57.440
like i was clearly my face was driving more clicks

00:16:55.440 --> 00:17:01.279
really interesting fact over the last couple of months i've actually been on

00:16:59.199 --> 00:17:06.400
the bottom half which i think is great that is because

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

00:17:08.559 --> 00:17:14.480
host we've had Yvonne host it means

00:17:11.600 --> 00:17:19.120
it means that people are connecting with the team

00:17:16.240 --> 00:17:23.839
and with the brand not just Linus sebastian the person who quite honestly

00:17:21.199 --> 00:17:29.919
can't do everything forever and so i was so so basically i had this

00:17:26.640 --> 00:17:32.799
um this sort of magic moment where

00:17:29.919 --> 00:17:37.200
i went okay LTT is starting to recover which is good

00:17:33.840 --> 00:17:37.200
if we can hire um

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

00:17:42.480 --> 00:17:47.840
part of the future and we can we can

00:17:45.520 --> 00:17:51.120
bring people more types of tech content that

00:17:49.120 --> 00:17:53.440
bring them happiness in other you know tech ways and that's been one of the

00:17:52.320 --> 00:17:57.760
great things about the channels that you guys have expanded is like if you liked

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

00:18:00.880 --> 00:18:06.160
channel of us playing with weird toys and being very cringy you could just

00:18:04.320 --> 00:18:10.320
keep watching the line of tech tips it didn't matter and lion detectives will

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

00:18:12.160 --> 00:18:18.880
keep carrying on and you're maybe expanding what are you expanding to are

00:18:16.000 --> 00:18:22.080
you saying at this point i don't know so it was really interesting because

00:18:20.160 --> 00:18:26.960
normally when you enter the hiring process you know you might go in and say

00:18:24.400 --> 00:18:32.640
uh you know i really want someone with um javascript experience or whatever

00:18:30.160 --> 00:18:35.520
okay you set out what your your job requirements are yeah

00:18:34.320 --> 00:18:38.960
um well i am just looking at all my

00:18:37.679 --> 00:18:43.120
applicants and i'm figuring out what can i do with

00:18:41.039 --> 00:18:47.280
this person best applicants are and then i will i will

00:18:44.880 --> 00:18:51.520
create programming it's actually there's some a little bit larger companies than

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

00:18:53.039 --> 00:18:59.120
that are extremely talented and passionate and you go like welp

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

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

00:19:06.640 --> 00:19:11.760
people but there's people who are already here that the new people could

00:19:10.480 --> 00:19:16.320
come and alleviate some of their workload and maybe they could pursue a

00:19:14.160 --> 00:19:19.440
passion project james and riley have been really into

00:19:18.240 --> 00:19:22.720
talk linked do you know talk linked okay totally

00:19:21.360 --> 00:19:27.919
different from TechLinked because it's just one topic instead of many topics

00:19:24.799 --> 00:19:30.880
and it's long instead of short yeah um

00:19:27.919 --> 00:19:35.200
and honestly the last the first episode kind of rough the second episode a lot

00:19:33.600 --> 00:19:41.360
better and the i happened to eavesdrop on sort of a

00:19:38.880 --> 00:19:45.200
a debrief conversation and they had identified basically everything that

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

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

00:19:52.400 --> 00:19:57.840
machine working yeah um and but they don't have

00:19:56.480 --> 00:20:02.240
time right so james has produced i think four

00:19:59.840 --> 00:20:06.480
LTT's in the last two weeks because Jake's been on vacation

00:20:04.400 --> 00:20:09.679
Anthony's been tied up preparing some of our really cool boots that we're gonna

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

00:20:12.320 --> 00:20:18.960
configure build and benchmark and set up demos on

00:20:15.840 --> 00:20:20.320
like uh so he's been super busy

00:20:18.960 --> 00:20:25.039
alex has been tied up he's actually putting together our like maker space

00:20:22.480 --> 00:20:27.600
next door right now yeah like so james we've been leaning on him really heavily

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

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

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

00:20:38.960 --> 00:20:46.480
long as we keep a really great team dynamic here and as long as we stay

00:20:42.799 --> 00:20:48.159
passionate about tech whether it's news

00:20:46.480 --> 00:20:54.400
news is important riley whether it's news or whether it's something else um

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

00:20:56.159 --> 00:21:01.120
know i'm i'm i'm not done yet

00:21:01.120 --> 00:21:08.159
cool you know i was thinking about it not thinking about actually quitting but

00:21:05.280 --> 00:21:12.000
thinking about phasing myself out um you know it's you've been sort of talking

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

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

00:21:17.600 --> 00:21:24.159
considering whether like whether i'm done um you know and when the when the

00:21:22.159 --> 00:21:28.480
channel is not performing well because at the end of the day it's not

00:21:26.080 --> 00:21:31.440
up to me it's it's not up to you it's not up to

00:21:29.679 --> 00:21:34.960
the rest of my staff like you know everyone here could go oh no Linus you

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

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

00:21:41.039 --> 00:21:45.840
it then like it's a nice sentiment but it

00:21:44.159 --> 00:21:50.159
actually doesn't matter yeah

00:21:47.679 --> 00:21:53.600
you could pivot to uh hear me out

00:21:51.280 --> 00:21:58.799
you could pivot to like vlogs of you doing hey hold on hold on

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

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

00:22:05.440 --> 00:22:11.120
hold on you really enjoyed your like rc car

00:22:09.280 --> 00:22:15.600
hacking electronic stuff yeah the gun's going a little bit

00:22:12.880 --> 00:22:20.159
further away um just like you experimenting with technologies in

00:22:17.600 --> 00:22:23.840
ways that you actually want to and just like fumbling around and trying

00:22:21.679 --> 00:22:28.000
different things instead of trying to go with this like

00:22:25.120 --> 00:22:31.919
hyper entertainment or hyper so we've done a bit more of that or

00:22:29.360 --> 00:22:35.280
whatever i know yeah but having a little bit even more free form and being like

00:22:34.000 --> 00:22:41.039
off the line of sections channel so it could be like pretty separated if you

00:22:37.520 --> 00:22:43.679
wanted to here's one problem with that

00:22:41.039 --> 00:22:46.880
at 4 000 videos in i've run most of the experiments that i

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

00:22:49.840 --> 00:22:56.720
resources now than i used to you know one of the things i really struggle with

00:22:53.280 --> 00:22:56.720
right now is just

00:22:57.120 --> 00:23:02.720
having too much resources like people got mad when i upgraded my

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

00:23:06.000 --> 00:23:10.240
so they were like why are you calling a titan graphics

00:23:09.039 --> 00:23:16.000
card slow so the thing is depending on what generation of titan is

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

00:23:18.159 --> 00:23:24.400
the fastest card on the market all the way down to slower than

00:23:22.559 --> 00:23:26.640
literally anything that NVIDIA currently sells

00:23:28.880 --> 00:23:35.520
and then you know you've got people that are frustrated because for me upgrading

00:23:33.280 --> 00:23:40.159
my personal rig is as simple as showing up at NVIDIA for a sponsored

00:23:37.360 --> 00:23:45.120
project of all things and saying that i've been finally finding time to play

00:23:41.919 --> 00:23:46.799
games lately um but anno 1800 is like

00:23:45.120 --> 00:23:49.120
chugging on my system and them just being like

00:23:48.240 --> 00:23:54.240
what i'll put a graphics card in the mail people people get mad about that

00:23:52.799 --> 00:23:59.760
and i get it but the flip side of it is um

00:23:57.679 --> 00:24:04.960
the alternative i guess is for me to just not tell you

00:24:02.080 --> 00:24:07.679
yeah because you could be an influencer 1

00:24:05.919 --> 00:24:13.679
20th my size and i use the term influencer

00:24:10.400 --> 00:24:16.320
as like the i word um so let's say an

00:24:13.679 --> 00:24:21.360
online content creator literally 120th my size and getting something like a

00:24:18.480 --> 00:24:27.520
graphics card sent to you is easy i mean even when we started lioness

00:24:24.320 --> 00:24:29.200
tech tips we had 200 000 subscribers

00:24:27.520 --> 00:24:34.559
yeah and one of the first videos that luke worked on when we went indie was

00:24:31.200 --> 00:24:36.960
our review of the first gtx titan yeah

00:24:34.559 --> 00:24:40.240
like it's not like this is new so the only

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

00:24:42.320 --> 00:24:49.440
just understand that anyone else out there who is not telling you that

00:24:47.200 --> 00:24:51.919
they got sampled a card for complete for doing a project or whatever the case may

00:24:51.120 --> 00:24:57.039
be is probably just not telling you there are exceptions

00:24:54.799 --> 00:25:01.840
but we believe in transparency if nothing else

00:24:58.159 --> 00:25:02.880
also it's not for my personal rig

00:25:01.840 --> 00:25:07.919
it's for a video there you have it so there's your full

00:25:06.559 --> 00:25:13.440
disclosure hey guys i'm working on my personal rig this

00:25:11.360 --> 00:25:17.679
video was sent or this video card was sent over by NVIDIA this motherboard was

00:25:15.279 --> 00:25:22.880
sent over by Gigabyte that's it we are we are fulfilling our

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

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

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

00:25:31.600 --> 00:25:36.080
think that's good enough so i mean they don't have any jurisdictions

00:25:35.039 --> 00:25:40.880
yeah at all and so but it's a good idea to i

00:25:39.279 --> 00:25:44.960
could just not but for my part i would rather take a little

00:25:43.440 --> 00:25:47.679
bit of negativity and uh

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

00:25:51.679 --> 00:25:57.039
um you know where's your channel

00:25:55.120 --> 00:26:00.240
where's your investment in building something

00:25:58.720 --> 00:26:04.960
so that people want you to show their products on it

00:26:03.919 --> 00:26:11.120
like i'm not saying that anyone can be a youtuber i'm just saying that

00:26:09.120 --> 00:26:14.640
you literally won't know unless you're like really

00:26:12.880 --> 00:26:18.640
trying to do it give it a shot and then should people be

00:26:17.039 --> 00:26:21.840
should people resent you if someone sends you a graphics card

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

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

00:26:29.600 --> 00:26:34.720
no no no no no no stop it

00:26:33.279 --> 00:26:38.240
that actually ties in really well to what i would say right there is the

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

00:26:40.320 --> 00:26:45.039
lyrics is like you need to calm down you're being too loud and the whole

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

00:26:48.880 --> 00:26:54.799
you i i have seen a lot of creators do a

00:26:52.640 --> 00:26:57.440
lot worse things where they hide it or there's something going on in the

00:26:55.919 --> 00:27:02.000
background and they're not communicating that stuff him saying like hey they sent me this

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

00:27:03.760 --> 00:27:09.600
that no i have never recommended a titan to anyone no

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

00:27:13.039 --> 00:27:19.679
well use it it's gonna fulfill all the things i really care about

00:27:17.120 --> 00:27:21.520
sweet dunks literally the fastest card so

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

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

00:27:27.520 --> 00:27:34.440
hand you've got people mad that like what kind of tech influence are you not

00:27:31.039 --> 00:27:34.440
even running slide

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

00:27:39.760 --> 00:27:44.080
can't please everyone yeah yeah exactly

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

00:27:48.159 --> 00:27:57.279
surely you mean sponsor spots oh right oh because our sponsor integrations and

00:27:54.480 --> 00:28:02.399
placements surely do not compete with youtube's ad formats yep we should do a

00:28:00.559 --> 00:28:06.159
lan show on that at some point why we have to call everything sponsored that

00:28:03.919 --> 00:28:10.159
would be awesome just kind of some inside baseball for you ladies and

00:28:07.679 --> 00:28:13.600
gentlemen uh ridge wallet yeah where's the ridge wallet

00:28:12.240 --> 00:28:19.200
they didn't give us a ridge wallet to talk about

00:28:16.399 --> 00:28:25.840
uh they might have been hoping mine would be here oh shoot but honestly to

00:28:22.159 --> 00:28:25.840
be screwed up straight up hey Jake

00:28:26.240 --> 00:28:31.279
Jake daly drives one is brandon getting one

00:28:29.360 --> 00:28:35.120
hey brandon saves the day yeah thanks

00:28:33.600 --> 00:28:40.640
brandon so the reason why i don't have mine on me is because

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

00:28:43.279 --> 00:28:50.240
didn't want to lose it oh all right that is why i actually believe see

00:28:48.080 --> 00:28:55.360
this is why he said that because it's happened multiple times he lost the

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

00:28:56.880 --> 00:29:02.640
earned because you don't become an influencer by accident he left it on a

00:29:00.320 --> 00:29:08.880
plane was it lg g3 g3 g3 but it still haunts

00:29:06.799 --> 00:29:12.720
me to use the dork so stop carrying pointless items around in

00:29:10.880 --> 00:29:17.520
your pockets like receipts old hotel room keys or spent gift cards the ridge

00:29:14.640 --> 00:29:22.640
wallet is designed to help you carry less it uses two metal plates that are

00:29:19.679 --> 00:29:26.399
bound by a strong elastic band keeping all your cards tightly together but

00:29:24.960 --> 00:29:30.559
still easily accessible it's rfid blocking and it's lifetime

00:29:28.960 --> 00:29:34.000
guaranteed it comes in different types of metal like aluminum titanium and

00:29:32.640 --> 00:29:38.960
carbon fiber which is not a type of metal but chill and you can use offer

00:29:36.000 --> 00:29:42.640
code LTT to save 10 percent on a ridge wallet at ridgewallet.com

00:29:40.880 --> 00:29:47.200
LTT oh you want to hit me with carbon fiber whoa

00:29:45.120 --> 00:29:52.559
it's lighter go freaking figure who would have found

00:29:49.200 --> 00:29:55.279
such a thing wow ah also for today's

00:29:52.559 --> 00:30:00.320
show is savage le jerky where's my maple buffalo bacon you can pick between these

00:29:57.039 --> 00:30:01.919
two and i am salivating already oh

00:30:00.320 --> 00:30:06.159
savage jerky was made by a group of friends that were tired of the same

00:30:03.600 --> 00:30:09.840
mediocre jerky they were a snack that was flavorful spicy and something that

00:30:08.480 --> 00:30:14.480
you wouldn't regret eating later they've got 13 different flavors of jerky like

00:30:12.320 --> 00:30:18.320
moho ghost pepper buffalo and my favorite

00:30:16.080 --> 00:30:20.480
maple buffalo bacon you might you might regret

00:30:19.440 --> 00:30:26.000
regret you might regret you know

00:30:23.120 --> 00:30:31.279
ghost pepper buffalo a little bit partially you won't regret the flavor

00:30:28.399 --> 00:30:34.240
you might regret what it does to you you might regret what it does to your

00:30:32.480 --> 00:30:40.000
toilet yeah but hey it's yummy

00:30:38.399 --> 00:30:43.760
and they don't just sell jerky you can try out their hot sauces i haven't tried

00:30:42.159 --> 00:30:47.200
the mojo habanero one that i'm holding up right now but the ghost pepper one is

00:30:45.840 --> 00:30:51.360
or the carolina reaper one that's the one i have it's so good i really i

00:30:49.520 --> 00:30:56.080
haven't tried this sauce but i really like this jerky so it's probably good um

00:30:54.080 --> 00:31:01.200
they've also got their barbecue sauces and they've even got a

00:30:57.919 --> 00:31:02.559
spice rub that goes great on anything

00:31:01.200 --> 00:31:05.679
they've got a promo on right now buy three bags of jerky and get one free

00:31:04.480 --> 00:31:10.159
heck yeah so check it out at LMG.gg

00:31:08.080 --> 00:31:14.480
savage jerky finally we got this plate

00:31:12.080 --> 00:31:18.880
boom how do you like that ltx disc blade yeah pull it off pull it off

00:31:17.279 --> 00:31:21.600
that's how easy it is to mount a disc plate make your walls look awesome with

00:31:20.399 --> 00:31:26.159
this plate the posters are made out of metal they're three millimeters thick they've got bent edges so that you won't

00:31:24.320 --> 00:31:30.640
cut yourself they use a magnetic wall mounting system and they've got

00:31:28.559 --> 00:31:36.000
15 000 artists who have contributed to over 260 000 different designs each

display sold gets 10 trees planted they offer hassle-free returns they're

00:31:37.360 --> 00:31:47.039
already gift packed and with code LTT you can save 15 so just head to LMG.gg

00:31:44.159 --> 00:31:51.039
displate when oh and apparently these are for sale

00:31:49.600 --> 00:31:55.360
honestly these are really sharp that's cool these are like

00:31:53.919 --> 00:31:58.640
yeah these are pretty cool you know how people used to get those metal car signs

00:31:56.960 --> 00:32:03.840
in their garage metal tech signs in your computer room

00:32:01.440 --> 00:32:09.120
or where you have your computer perfect that's cool yeah

00:32:06.799 --> 00:32:15.559
this one made me like a tiny bit sad because you're not on it yep

00:32:11.039 --> 00:32:15.559
i checked yeah i was curious

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

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

00:32:25.760 --> 00:32:34.159
right now rumor status uh this was posted by clueless gamer on the forum

00:32:31.039 --> 00:32:38.200
it's definitely a rumor wccf tech

00:32:34.159 --> 00:32:41.120
they claim AMD is working on a 64 core

00:32:38.200 --> 00:32:44.960
128 thread threadripper part for launch in q4 of 2019.

00:32:44.159 --> 00:32:49.519
now this was something that was

00:32:47.519 --> 00:32:53.679
very recently rumored to be going away altogether threadripper was like on

00:32:51.440 --> 00:32:57.519
AMD's roadmap and it was like then kind of off not on it yeah

00:32:55.679 --> 00:33:01.840
and then now there's a rumor that we're still going to have it

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

00:33:05.120 --> 00:33:13.039
i think AMD has such a strong end

00:33:09.600 --> 00:33:14.559
i am take everything i'm saying as a

00:33:13.039 --> 00:33:18.240
rumor and the reason for that is that we

00:33:16.080 --> 00:33:23.120
haven't actually seen third gen ryzen performance yet yeah so

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

00:33:26.320 --> 00:33:34.240
they have provided that they are not lying

00:33:30.240 --> 00:33:36.960
and that third gen riser kicks ass riser

00:33:34.240 --> 00:33:40.559
did i say riser riser ryzen sorry all right so i am assuming that they are

00:33:39.360 --> 00:33:44.720
not bull crapping around

00:33:42.799 --> 00:33:48.559
i kind of like riser right someone should make a riser product line

00:33:46.799 --> 00:33:52.480
all right enough sorry

00:33:50.000 --> 00:33:55.840
here just twist a little bit take it

00:33:54.240 --> 00:33:59.919
thanks yeah it looked like a nipple pinch anyway

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

00:34:01.519 --> 00:34:08.079
so here's my here's my counter to thread

00:34:05.200 --> 00:34:12.399
ripper pitch you already have 32 core Threadripper okay that already

00:34:11.280 --> 00:34:18.000
exists on the ryzen 3rd gen

00:34:15.280 --> 00:34:24.159
mainstream platform you are already going to have a 16 core

00:34:22.000 --> 00:34:30.320
32 thread chip i would i would postulate that for the

00:34:27.520 --> 00:34:34.919
vast majority of workloads that is already

00:34:31.440 --> 00:34:34.919
more than enough

00:34:35.119 --> 00:34:41.520
i i realize i'm changing my tune a lot because back when Intel was determined

00:34:39.359 --> 00:34:46.399
to keep quad core the maximum for mainstream forever i was like

00:34:43.919 --> 00:34:48.960
yo where's my course for mainstream i absolutely think so for

00:34:48.159 --> 00:34:55.200
some scenarios where you're trying to build out like serverless clouds and stuff by

00:34:53.520 --> 00:34:59.520
epic yeah

00:34:57.200 --> 00:35:05.760
i just it feels completely unnecessary

00:35:02.240 --> 00:35:07.040
because verizon whatever it is 30 90

00:35:05.760 --> 00:35:11.040
something what's the future of their effort again what's their future of the epic

00:35:09.760 --> 00:35:14.960
processors 30 what no epic is uh epic is going to

00:35:13.839 --> 00:35:19.119
be on there so zen 2 epic is going to be called rome

00:35:17.200 --> 00:35:22.000
okay it's coming okay very soon okay okay so

00:35:22.880 --> 00:35:30.480
i could still see them doing Threadripper as a 20

00:35:28.000 --> 00:35:35.599
24 32 lineup or something like that

00:35:33.440 --> 00:35:38.800
but that's three skus it's hard to say if it's worth

00:35:36.640 --> 00:35:44.000
maintaining a completely separate socket and chipset platform for it

00:35:41.440 --> 00:35:49.920
um it's already like it's like it's it's so

00:35:47.440 --> 00:35:54.720
niche the only reason i could think of to do it would be to just

00:35:52.480 --> 00:35:58.720
put the screws to Intel but even then it's totally unnecessary

00:35:56.880 --> 00:36:02.800
like we already kind of have Intel isn't going to have

00:36:00.560 --> 00:36:06.240
anything to compete with even a 32 core Threadripper

00:36:04.000 --> 00:36:10.640
within the next 18 months as far as i can tell yeah so this is just

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

00:36:12.800 --> 00:36:19.040
single threaded clock speed for the sake of having more cores

00:36:16.079 --> 00:36:22.480
and if we really need 64 cores why aren't we just getting an epic there

00:36:20.640 --> 00:36:27.119
is very very little that i can think of

00:36:24.960 --> 00:36:32.800
even for a workstation workload that needs 64 CPU cores i hadn't heard the

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

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

00:36:40.880 --> 00:36:45.599
course so basically they're just repurposing rome yeah as a workstation

00:36:44.160 --> 00:36:52.000
product which i mean i guess if you're building the damn thing anyway

00:36:48.560 --> 00:36:52.000
okay maybe if it's easy

00:36:52.560 --> 00:36:58.160
it doesn't make it yeah the thing about threadripper though is it's overclockable

00:36:56.800 --> 00:37:04.079
i don't know that i would recommend overclocking a 64-core processor

00:37:02.000 --> 00:37:06.960
so it just feels like the the product without a customer

00:37:07.280 --> 00:37:13.119
because you're either a little bit lower than it probably or a

00:37:11.440 --> 00:37:17.040
little bit higher than it probably there's it's fairly unlikely you'll be

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

00:37:19.920 --> 00:37:25.920
yeah so okay if this isn't about building a practical

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

00:37:27.599 --> 00:37:35.200
to happen based on what we know what we're taking AMD's word for

00:37:32.880 --> 00:37:37.599
so far with 3rd gen ryzen it should have excellent performance per

00:37:36.800 --> 00:37:40.880
watt the sustained clock speeds that it can

00:37:39.920 --> 00:37:44.640
hit should be pretty decent even with high

00:37:43.280 --> 00:37:50.640
core counts and its ipc improvements over last gen

00:37:47.839 --> 00:37:56.000
zen are looking pretty good yeah so with all of that in mind

00:37:52.560 --> 00:37:58.240
Intel's highest end and like

00:37:56.000 --> 00:38:02.880
it's like full desperation move that w series 28 core xeon that the

00:38:00.800 --> 00:38:06.880
overclockable one that you can put on there's like three motherboards that

00:38:04.400 --> 00:38:09.440
exist for it or whatever um so

00:38:07.839 --> 00:38:13.760
so Intel's best possible response without bringing back

00:38:12.320 --> 00:38:18.400
like skull trail dual socket overclockable systems is 28 cores

00:38:17.520 --> 00:38:24.320
so what we know then is that if AMD goes 32

00:38:22.160 --> 00:38:27.520
core which is what they currently have and what they could easily and

00:38:26.240 --> 00:38:31.839
comfortably do with a next-gen threadripper they will probably beat

00:38:29.599 --> 00:38:37.119
that processor by a little so when you're looking at the like review the

00:38:34.800 --> 00:38:40.640
the halo product versus the halo product AMD might be on top

00:38:38.800 --> 00:38:43.839
but like by a bit and it might depend on if it's

00:38:42.560 --> 00:38:50.640
like an avx 512 enabled workload or whatever

00:38:46.560 --> 00:38:53.839
if AMD releases a 64 core processor they

00:38:50.640 --> 00:38:55.280
know that for the first time

00:38:53.839 --> 00:38:59.280
uh ever no no they beat until the dual class

00:38:57.680 --> 00:39:04.480
they beat them to dual core so for the first time in over 10 years

00:39:01.839 --> 00:39:07.839
they know that they will not just beat Intel at the top of the benchmark

00:39:06.640 --> 00:39:13.119
leaderboards they will absolutely

00:39:10.000 --> 00:39:15.040
destroy them pardon my french

00:39:13.119 --> 00:39:18.320
sorry we don't have the button yeah i need the button

00:39:16.560 --> 00:39:22.400
like we're talking there will be benchmark graphs where

00:39:20.560 --> 00:39:28.640
people are showing you know video encoding in ffmpeg or cinebench

00:39:26.640 --> 00:39:34.079
where AMD literally is outperforming until by a factor of two yeah

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

00:39:36.640 --> 00:39:44.800
with how like successful they've been for the last little while maybe that

00:39:42.000 --> 00:39:49.520
type of fun is becoming worth it where like the uh the the last round of

00:39:47.680 --> 00:39:51.920
processors from AMD i would not have necessarily said the same thing well now

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

00:39:55.440 --> 00:39:58.079
helps yeah

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

00:40:03.760 --> 00:40:08.960
and with constant security vulnerability problems coming from Intel

00:40:07.680 --> 00:40:13.040
um it's it's a it's a good time over in

00:40:10.720 --> 00:40:19.119
that camp so the rumor is that um it would be socket compatible

00:40:17.119 --> 00:40:22.880
with existing tr4 motherboards after a BIOS update um

00:40:21.280 --> 00:40:27.520
if there's speculation that it's probably a 14 nanometer part

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

00:40:32.720 --> 00:40:38.000
and they're aiming for mid q4 2019 because

00:40:36.320 --> 00:40:42.640
they have something planned for ces next year or at the very latest january 2020.

00:40:41.760 --> 00:40:47.200
um actually i don't even know if these are zen 2 course which is interesting

00:40:45.440 --> 00:40:51.040
because if they're not 7 nanometer they wouldn't be as far as i know

00:40:49.680 --> 00:40:56.079
forgive me for not having all the details about this rumored product yeah

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

00:40:59.040 --> 00:41:05.200
this making any sense for AMD is just as

00:41:02.240 --> 00:41:08.480
a gigantic fu which is fun

00:41:06.800 --> 00:41:11.920
which is fun yeah yeah

00:41:10.079 --> 00:41:16.160
all right speaking of fun xbox scarlet announced you want to talk

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

00:41:18.319 --> 00:41:25.119
computer space you're like no consoles suck no it's awesome shut up because

00:41:22.800 --> 00:41:28.319
every time new really awesome consoles come out everything steps up a little

00:41:26.800 --> 00:41:31.920
bit because developers are going to be making for compatibility across the

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

00:41:34.000 --> 00:41:42.319
consoles are basically computers now yes extremely much so supports don't suck so

00:41:38.640 --> 00:41:43.760
hard yeah um so that's it's great it's

00:41:42.319 --> 00:41:46.880
actually it's fantastic anyways microsoft announced it at e3 2019

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

00:41:49.920 --> 00:41:55.119
they're apparently we'll have a physical disk drive which is actually important

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

00:41:59.200 --> 00:42:04.240
this is a really important comment clash in cube india says Linus got a great

00:42:02.480 --> 00:42:07.839
body thank you go ahead

00:42:05.680 --> 00:42:12.400
i did i did um auto completes for you and i on youtube

00:42:10.400 --> 00:42:16.960
recently just out of pure pure curiosity yeah and one of your top

00:42:14.400 --> 00:42:20.319
ones is topless really or shirtless or something but

00:42:18.640 --> 00:42:23.760
effectively without a shirt on that's uncomfortable so there you go cool

00:42:22.079 --> 00:42:27.200
nobody should want to see my weird chest hair tuft

00:42:27.200 --> 00:42:34.880
it's a custom designed AMD processor using zen 2 and navi architectures sexy

00:42:32.800 --> 00:42:39.040
from a pure processing perspective it's four times more powerful and while i was

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

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

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

00:42:51.280 --> 00:42:56.560
way to talk about the power of a game console

00:42:54.960 --> 00:43:00.960
that's true what game are we talking about what at what texture the

00:42:59.760 --> 00:43:04.560
resolution and this detail level at what draw

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

00:43:07.359 --> 00:43:12.960
compatibility for a brief second like yeah is it a picture this stuff makes me

00:43:11.920 --> 00:43:17.599
so mad so there were people posting again on

00:43:15.520 --> 00:43:21.119
the personal rig update one that are like

00:43:19.280 --> 00:43:27.440
pc gaming is a joke because even with the titan rtx it was still only running

00:43:22.800 --> 00:43:30.400
at 70 to 85 frames per second

00:43:27.440 --> 00:43:34.400
as if it's that simple it depends on how much you cranked up

00:43:31.920 --> 00:43:39.280
the details do you remember uh the console comparison video we did yeah at

00:43:37.040 --> 00:43:43.119
the last big launch that was technically like the last big console launch uh it's

00:43:41.680 --> 00:43:47.680
just been forever you guys should do another one yeah we totally should

00:43:46.079 --> 00:43:54.319
i was also thinking of doing a lot better doing a video called

00:43:51.040 --> 00:43:55.680
console marketing is stupid

00:43:54.319 --> 00:43:59.920
were we basically okay but pc marketing is really stupid too i know but console

00:43:57.520 --> 00:44:04.240
marketing vr ready is sli ready that's really stupid and i

00:44:02.000 --> 00:44:07.440
don't have to accept that so the reason that marketing a console

00:44:06.720 --> 00:44:12.400
as 4k is that

00:44:10.560 --> 00:44:16.880
everything has trade-offs i could run games at 4k on a

00:44:14.800 --> 00:44:22.240
six-year-old computer what games

00:44:19.359 --> 00:44:28.240
at what image quality settings pong exactly i could run i could i could

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

00:44:31.440 --> 00:44:38.079
tell you what game it is and what it freaking looks like that is not

00:44:36.319 --> 00:44:43.440
meaningful information it's like it's like having a

00:44:39.680 --> 00:44:45.599
multi-variable algebra equation and

00:44:43.440 --> 00:44:52.319
you've only got one number and everything else you've got variables x y

00:44:49.440 --> 00:44:56.319
z a b c gamma freaking it's all over the place it would be cool

00:44:54.079 --> 00:44:59.280
if they tried to maybe use a first party title

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

00:45:03.920 --> 00:45:11.680
at 120. sure or something um anyway i'll let you finish i'ma let

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

00:45:12.960 --> 00:45:20.319
seeing over 40 times performance increase over the current generation

00:45:16.640 --> 00:45:22.160
from the SSD and yeah yeah yeah to be

00:45:20.319 --> 00:45:26.319
yeah i probably should have said that um because the SSD is being used as virtual

00:45:24.240 --> 00:45:30.240
RAM so it's gonna share a little bit uh and moving through worlds without

00:45:28.000 --> 00:45:33.760
waiting for screens to load is going to maybe happen sometimes with

00:45:32.480 --> 00:45:36.960
some games that's so funny too because it's like

00:45:35.520 --> 00:45:41.040
they're like yeah what an innovation an SSD

00:45:39.280 --> 00:45:46.480
yeah meanwhile we're like hey yeah you mean like when people were

00:45:43.359 --> 00:45:50.079
upgrading for freaking like

00:45:46.480 --> 00:45:51.119
wow burning crusade

00:45:50.079 --> 00:45:55.920
and to be clear people have been manually upgrading consoles with ssds for a bit too

00:45:54.079 --> 00:45:58.800
it's it's honestly like burning crusade days that was kind of when people

00:45:57.280 --> 00:46:04.560
started upgrading and putting wow on an SSD so that they wouldn't load when they

00:46:00.800 --> 00:46:07.040
went budget like come on

00:46:04.560 --> 00:46:11.599
um halo infinite is confirmed as a launch title but also to be clear halo

00:46:08.960 --> 00:46:15.560
infinite's coming to pc and xbox one x as well nice um

00:46:15.760 --> 00:46:21.760
it's possible that a new elite controller a series two no that's

00:46:19.520 --> 00:46:26.560
available for pre-order that's coming i'm excited i love my elite controller

00:46:24.560 --> 00:46:30.400
except when it broke it's actually the only xbox controller i've ever had break

00:46:28.560 --> 00:46:35.280
is my elite controller that's kind of sad how did it break d-pad

00:46:33.200 --> 00:46:38.000
so i was playing cross-code and um use the d-pad to switch between the

00:46:36.480 --> 00:46:42.319
different elements okay i'm starting soon you said something sorry uh you

00:46:40.640 --> 00:46:46.000
said something about keyboard and mouse versus controller should i keyboard and mouse it

00:46:46.319 --> 00:46:52.800
it's i think it okay i've never actually played it on keyboard and mouse

00:46:51.280 --> 00:46:56.560
so the only experience i have with the keyboard mouse controls

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

00:46:58.960 --> 00:47:04.240
a top-down sprite-based rpg and i just grabbed a controller the first time i

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

00:47:06.640 --> 00:47:11.760
the only reason i even know you can control it with keyboard and mouse it's

00:47:10.079 --> 00:47:15.359
because i was sitting on a plane and i kept like accidentally like aiming

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

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

00:47:23.119 --> 00:47:28.480
quickly aiming keyboard and mouse would be

00:47:26.240 --> 00:47:35.760
way better yeah that makes sense that's kind of a rule i really enjoyed

00:47:32.160 --> 00:47:38.640
like the laid-back console experience of

00:47:35.760 --> 00:47:40.880
using a controller with it and like you're good enough with the

00:47:39.520 --> 00:47:44.240
controller that it probably shouldn't matter okay yeah

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

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

00:47:52.640 --> 00:48:02.319
played a demo so psychonauts towards the end is like

00:47:59.760 --> 00:48:07.119
it's like kind of unfair like there's some really frustrating

00:48:03.920 --> 00:48:09.599
parts that are like i'd say

00:48:07.119 --> 00:48:11.680
amazing game design for a very skilled player

00:48:10.880 --> 00:48:15.520
like you should be able to um

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

00:48:17.920 --> 00:48:23.200
unless it's dark souls or something like obviously there are games that are

00:48:21.359 --> 00:48:27.359
designed to just kick your ass over and over and over again yeah

00:48:25.440 --> 00:48:30.720
but i'd say most games if they're balanced correctly if you're really

00:48:28.800 --> 00:48:34.079
really good and you are mastering every new skill as it comes at you you should

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

00:48:37.440 --> 00:48:42.079
is is everything is beatable on the first try if you've been paying really

00:48:40.880 --> 00:48:46.559
close attention with a controller there's no i never

00:48:44.240 --> 00:48:51.440
felt like it was totally unfair okay yeah all right fair

00:48:48.400 --> 00:48:53.040
um current xbox one accessories will

00:48:51.440 --> 00:48:59.760
work with scarlett which is cool and apparently launching holiday 2020 so

00:48:56.880 --> 00:49:07.119
we're still quite a ways out but yeah yes jim this is bacon jerky

00:49:04.240 --> 00:49:11.680
it's pretty legit actually yeah that's scarlet it's uh not coming

00:49:09.280 --> 00:49:15.760
for a while but it's very exciting it's cool

00:49:13.040 --> 00:49:19.119
we should maybe stay on the microsoft path

00:49:16.640 --> 00:49:22.800
and jump down to the xbox game pass for pc

00:49:21.280 --> 00:49:27.200
yeah so basically uh it's like a steam like

00:49:25.920 --> 00:49:31.839
thingy but it's a subscription based it's ten

00:49:30.000 --> 00:49:36.960
bucks a month or five bucks a month if you sign up during the beta or

00:49:33.839 --> 00:49:39.760
one dollar if you sign up now but it's

00:49:36.960 --> 00:49:44.079
10 bucks a month um over 100 pc games available at launch

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

00:49:45.440 --> 00:49:50.720
it off your computer and stuff so here's some of the games um

00:49:48.800 --> 00:49:52.880
here i'll just uh screen share with you guys

00:49:53.559 --> 00:49:59.040
333 results honestly as with pretty much all of

00:49:57.839 --> 00:50:05.760
these things so here let's filter by pc games sure

00:50:04.000 --> 00:50:10.240
hooray 108 results that's more like it

00:50:08.480 --> 00:50:13.440
yeah a lot of it is stuff i have never heard

00:50:12.240 --> 00:50:19.280
of versa sea of thieves here's a war there's a

00:50:16.480 --> 00:50:22.720
war a bunch of first-party stuff i think the most interesting things in here are

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

00:50:25.599 --> 00:50:32.480
if you caught bought them on certain sales or things that you're probably not going

00:50:29.359 --> 00:50:34.559
to be super interested in just because

00:50:32.480 --> 00:50:37.200
unless you're like equally interested in literally every game genre because

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

00:50:40.400 --> 00:50:45.599
wrong if i'm a little offended on by someone trying to capitalize on mr

00:50:43.440 --> 00:50:50.559
rogers he was so against that kind of stuff is that supposed to be hello

00:50:47.680 --> 00:50:54.960
neighbor come on wearing like a plaid sweater vest oh it's a super creepy game

00:50:52.559 --> 00:50:57.760
though it's it has nothing to do with i hear you

00:50:56.319 --> 00:51:02.079
i see where you're going you can't say hello neighbor without it yeah being

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

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

00:51:08.800 --> 00:51:14.960
and then yeah i think he's holding a shovel because he attacks yourself

00:51:13.040 --> 00:51:17.520
highly recommended broforce is amazing luke and i played through it a little

00:51:16.480 --> 00:51:20.480
while ago save this fire is great

00:51:20.559 --> 00:51:26.800
very good i actually really enjoyed lucky's tale

00:51:24.640 --> 00:51:31.359
really yeah did you not i don't think i played it very much oh

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

00:51:33.520 --> 00:51:39.040
didn't i ran it on the 5. but i had

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

00:51:42.160 --> 00:51:48.160
yeah so i i i ran that on an unauthorized

00:51:46.319 --> 00:51:53.359
system with no it's interesting quality so we called

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

00:51:56.079 --> 00:52:01.119
i mean the calling um but vr you guys

00:51:59.200 --> 00:52:06.079
didn't even cover the new stuff did anyone complain i'm yes actually i

00:52:03.920 --> 00:52:09.440
need to cover the quest people are mad but not the rift s

00:52:07.680 --> 00:52:13.839
who cares about the rift s yeah there you go oof yeah no one cared

00:52:12.160 --> 00:52:17.440
about the rift as people do care about the quest the quest seems to be doing

00:52:15.599 --> 00:52:21.440
pretty well i'm really skeptical about it but i am trying to maintain an open

00:52:19.760 --> 00:52:26.000
mind i will i was i was going to come here and say

00:52:24.000 --> 00:52:30.000
i understand but i think you should cover it because i don't think Linus

00:52:28.319 --> 00:52:33.599
tech tips should lose the foothold of covering vr content

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

00:52:36.400 --> 00:52:44.319
cross codes in game pass hey hey already bought it so whatever that's cheap yeah

00:52:42.559 --> 00:52:48.559
i love that game so much i wouldn't it's not like

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

00:52:50.240 --> 00:52:57.040
no i'll recommend it okay no problem it's not my favorite game or anything

00:52:54.880 --> 00:53:02.000
but if i'm being really honest i think it's better than

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

00:53:04.160 --> 00:53:09.520
it's objectively better we've got some nostalgic classes

00:53:07.200 --> 00:53:11.520
yeah like i think if i'm being honest with myself what about breath of the

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

00:53:14.559 --> 00:53:19.839
breath of wild too i don't think i care oh

00:53:17.839 --> 00:53:22.240
what was magic about breath of the wild was how

00:53:21.119 --> 00:53:27.119
utterly different it was i had no temptation

00:53:24.800 --> 00:53:31.760
whatsoever to download the dlc okay i was just like

00:53:30.079 --> 00:53:34.880
i was like you know what that was a great contained experience yeah you know

00:53:33.440 --> 00:53:37.920
when you finish happy with my music a really great book

00:53:36.480 --> 00:53:41.359
yep and you close the last cover and you

00:53:39.680 --> 00:53:45.599
kind of sit there and you go wow

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

00:53:48.960 --> 00:53:53.280
put so many hours into breath of the wild like i just

00:53:52.079 --> 00:53:59.040
i uh i yeah i i i tried to tell myself no final

00:53:56.720 --> 00:54:01.920
fantasy 6 is still my favorite game but

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

00:54:04.480 --> 00:54:09.760
characters um

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

00:54:11.520 --> 00:54:18.400
through the game there's actually not a lot that happens

00:54:16.480 --> 00:54:21.599
whereas and you know what i think the same is probably true for cross code

00:54:19.920 --> 00:54:26.240
cross code can get a little grindy at times not that much actually happens but

00:54:24.160 --> 00:54:28.640
what's great about it is i absolutely adore

00:54:27.359 --> 00:54:32.480
the characters i still there's a strong connection

00:54:30.400 --> 00:54:35.680
there i went back and played some of more wind recently yeah more wins the

00:54:34.640 --> 00:54:40.559
game that i've always said is my favorite game um and i think

00:54:38.880 --> 00:54:47.119
i think it still is but but i don't think i would have the

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

00:54:49.040 --> 00:54:55.040
what you did yes that makes sense i don't think i could extract the

00:54:52.800 --> 00:54:59.920
experience i had with morrowind anymore which makes me really sad

00:54:57.680 --> 00:55:04.000
but like you're done growed up yeah to a certain degree because like the thing

00:55:01.760 --> 00:55:06.800
with morrowind was i the game starts they give you this like

00:55:05.520 --> 00:55:12.000
package thing and you're supposed to go give it to someone and it was worth

00:55:08.800 --> 00:55:14.400
something so i just sold it all the time

00:55:12.000 --> 00:55:17.839
and that was what started the main quest so i actually really thoroughly enjoyed

00:55:16.720 --> 00:55:24.079
the game for like months before i realized the game had a main

00:55:21.680 --> 00:55:27.920
quest yep and i was like oh god and then this unlocked this whole

00:55:26.400 --> 00:55:32.480
other part of the game and it was it was very interesting to wander and explore

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

00:55:34.480 --> 00:55:40.240
must extract enjoyment out of game as much as possible not just i'm gonna go

00:55:38.640 --> 00:55:44.800
enjoy myself and that's what was so magical about breath of the wild to me

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

00:55:47.200 --> 00:55:52.319
characters like even some of the less popular final fantasies um

00:55:51.520 --> 00:55:58.000
i actually know most of them the characters are kind of cliche i've

00:55:55.680 --> 00:56:01.599
really loved six um uh so it's because i love the characters

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

00:56:04.880 --> 00:56:11.760
the exploration not the uh

00:56:08.799 --> 00:56:14.839
like the link character is

00:56:12.880 --> 00:56:19.839
utterly uninteresting to me okay

00:56:17.040 --> 00:56:22.079
there's not much to him no no the zelda character

00:56:20.960 --> 00:56:27.599
is she might as well be princess peach

00:56:25.280 --> 00:56:32.160
they are completely interchangeable to me they're like

00:56:29.040 --> 00:56:33.760
um a damsel in distress but over the

00:56:32.160 --> 00:56:38.880
years because uh you know empowerment they have become

00:56:36.319 --> 00:56:42.960
strong independent women and that's great

00:56:40.319 --> 00:56:45.839
but that doesn't that's still completely two-dimensional

00:56:46.319 --> 00:56:53.839
and you know what i'm sure that there's like supplementary manga or something

00:56:52.319 --> 00:56:57.680
like sure yeah some type of additional some people

00:56:56.079 --> 00:57:01.280
only play the games and you gotta get you gotta if you read

00:56:59.839 --> 00:57:04.799
the lore you gotta give me something to work with here like link is literally a

00:57:03.040 --> 00:57:08.880
silent protagonist um and and that's that's a storytelling

00:57:07.359 --> 00:57:12.240
mechanism but but what was magical about breath of the wild was definitely the

00:57:10.400 --> 00:57:15.680
exploration what i usually love about games is the characters so it's just

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

00:57:17.440 --> 00:57:25.119
the characters especially because i would never go and explore a world that

00:57:22.079 --> 00:57:26.559
i've already explored but i might go

00:57:25.119 --> 00:57:31.280
have a story retold to me about characters that i

00:57:28.559 --> 00:57:35.200
love so for me breath of the wild has no replay value

00:57:32.640 --> 00:57:39.200
whereas i have played final fantasy 6 through to the end

00:57:36.720 --> 00:57:44.079
at least half a dozen times i'm like and almost through probably 20 times to

00:57:41.359 --> 00:57:47.839
reaffirm all of these points it's on the same map

00:57:45.680 --> 00:57:50.559
oof yeah

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

00:57:52.319 --> 00:57:58.559
were they in in one of their interviews they basically said

00:57:56.319 --> 00:58:03.359
it would have made sense to be a dlc if dlcs were conventionally seen as like

00:58:01.599 --> 00:58:07.040
multitudes bigger than what they are so it's an expansion pack it's basically so

00:58:05.280 --> 00:58:10.799
we're back to that yeah it will okay they're saying it's like

00:58:08.480 --> 00:58:14.079
the majority's mask i never played majora's mask me neither

00:58:12.400 --> 00:58:17.920
actually so i don't know how accurate this is but the majority is maxed to

00:58:16.240 --> 00:58:22.079
ocarina of time except it's on the same map it's an expansion panel

00:58:20.000 --> 00:58:25.280
yeah it's like a really big expansion pack yeah but the expansion packs are

00:58:23.839 --> 00:58:27.760
really big yeah what are you doing

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.

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

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

00:58:40.880 --> 00:58:45.599
as long as the tides of darkness came but i remember correctly frozen throne

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

00:58:47.920 --> 00:58:52.720
completely overhauls and changes the game but it's the same sort of supreme

00:58:51.280 --> 00:58:56.160
commander's expansion pack had a campaign that was just as long and added a race

00:58:55.359 --> 00:59:01.359
like it's an expansion pack yeah we just don't call them that

00:58:59.040 --> 00:59:06.559
anymore i guess is someone dying oh it's possible

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

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

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

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

00:59:25.119 --> 00:59:30.160
first person view experience so we're designing the tracks and it'll include

00:59:28.720 --> 00:59:34.640
some fun little easter eggs for you guys to find um

00:59:32.799 --> 00:59:39.920
that's probably a good idea we'll be playing robo recall vacation simulator

00:59:36.960 --> 00:59:45.200
and winlands2 at the vr experience booth that will include eight htc vibes a big

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

00:59:46.720 --> 00:59:52.079
it i have to buy them oof yeah

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

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

01:00:00.559 --> 01:00:07.040
know i'm not accusing i don't know okay either way if it's there it'll be there

01:00:05.359 --> 01:00:10.880
we have new guests their bowers gonna be there oh sweet

01:00:09.119 --> 01:00:15.200

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

01:01:13.200 --> 01:01:19.839
these um twitter slash float playing q a with

01:01:16.240 --> 01:01:21.200
LMG part one and two is at uh 11 30 on

01:01:19.839 --> 01:01:25.520
the second day uh world of warships tournament with Linus never played the game so that'll

01:01:24.480 --> 01:01:30.079
be interesting apparently i get it i get like a stacked

01:01:27.520 --> 01:01:34.319
like special ship that's like uh LTT colored and stuff what so

01:01:32.319 --> 01:01:37.520
like people so i because i don't know how to play the game i

01:01:35.839 --> 01:01:41.920
have kind of an advantage so i don't know it might be interesting

01:01:39.040 --> 01:01:46.880
uh pc versus mac panel uh budget versus performance panel award ceremony and a

01:01:44.079 --> 01:01:50.160
farewell uh MSI is apparently sending us 20 little lucky dragons to sell and

01:01:49.119 --> 01:01:55.839
build on the floor plan oh my goodness we're showing the floor plan

01:01:53.839 --> 01:02:02.960
look at all the updates today hold up those boc seats oh yeah we expanded it

01:01:59.760 --> 01:02:04.640
um heck yeah okay so

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

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

01:02:11.440 --> 01:02:19.040
where the systems are already there uh vip slash staff slash krubiosc so that's

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

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

01:02:26.079 --> 01:02:31.839
i'm having a hard time reading so the vip staff crew bric that's Floatplane

01:02:30.319 --> 01:02:36.240
is going to be in there as well uh yeah yeah yeah okay yeah

01:02:33.440 --> 01:02:39.599
um and then over here is the indie zone i believe this is the case toss

01:02:38.400 --> 01:02:44.720
um i can't read any of this stuff but

01:02:42.079 --> 01:02:50.160
maybe it's i don't know it's super awesome oh

01:02:47.599 --> 01:02:56.079
yes so this is a problem um free geek

01:02:52.799 --> 01:02:58.400
is uh actually kind of in trouble

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

01:03:00.319 --> 01:03:06.240
an amazing supporter of ltx without them we wouldn't have been able

01:03:04.559 --> 01:03:10.319
to get the hundreds of dead motherboards to use as the motherboard house of cards

01:03:08.400 --> 01:03:14.240
booth they provided 20 plus cases to throw at the infamous case toss they

01:03:12.480 --> 01:03:17.119
sourced 20 computers for us to use in the pc build workshop like dead

01:03:15.680 --> 01:03:20.400
components that people can learn to assemble sent us a number of unique

01:03:19.119 --> 01:03:26.240
motherboards for the guess that motherboard booth a lot of this would have been difficult

01:03:23.839 --> 01:03:30.079
if not impossible to do without them so free geek is a vancouver-based

01:03:27.839 --> 01:03:34.160
non-profit community organization that reuses and recycles donated electronics

01:03:32.400 --> 01:03:38.400
they offer education job skills training and provide free or low-cost computers

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

01:03:40.160 --> 01:03:46.480
of a tough spot right now

01:03:43.280 --> 01:03:48.400
because recycling rates are falling and

01:03:46.480 --> 01:03:53.280
um you know what not too much details but we'd really appreciate your guys's

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

01:03:55.520 --> 01:04:01.440
it's freegeekvancouver.org where you can go to learn how you can

01:03:59.440 --> 01:04:05.200
contribute because uh you know everything from

01:04:03.039 --> 01:04:13.200
scrapyard wars to retro mods to our sleeper pc series like

01:04:09.039 --> 01:04:16.319
they have hooked us up in ways that are

01:04:13.200 --> 01:04:18.400
like not money but just

01:04:16.319 --> 01:04:22.480
pc community relationship ways

01:04:20.319 --> 01:04:26.720
this is the kind of stuff you want in the pc community because if you think

01:04:24.319 --> 01:04:30.240
back to your current or maybe younger self depending on where you're at yeah

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

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

01:04:36.640 --> 01:04:44.480
to be completely honest so so inspiring new young or or

01:04:42.079 --> 01:04:49.440
uh less financially fortunate minds in our space is how is is how it grows yeah

01:04:48.079 --> 01:04:52.960
all right so guys go check it out that's freegeekvancouver.org

01:04:51.200 --> 01:04:57.680
and uh we should go ahead and call up some super chats amari says finally

01:04:55.839 --> 01:05:02.880
youtube premium got sick of ads good stuff and thank you for the two dollars

01:04:59.680 --> 01:05:06.079
um jamaican you too presumably logan

01:05:02.880 --> 01:05:08.240
frozen sniper you guys too sup spencer

01:05:06.079 --> 01:05:11.440
uh connor says what were you doing with gavin

01:05:09.839 --> 01:05:15.119
uh a couple of really cool things so gathering this i think

01:05:13.359 --> 01:05:19.359
knows what you're doing no they don't that video is not up yet oh

01:05:17.200 --> 01:05:24.240
so uh we did a couple of things we determined once and for all whether

01:05:22.400 --> 01:05:28.160
240 hertz monitors have an advantage over 60 hertz

01:05:26.400 --> 01:05:31.839
for gamers oh yeah and in a bunch of really interesting

01:05:30.880 --> 01:05:37.680
ways so does it affect reaction time

01:05:34.720 --> 01:05:43.680
does it affect your kill rate does it affect the way that you aim

01:05:40.799 --> 01:05:46.400
so we used slow motion 1000 frame per second footage

01:05:44.960 --> 01:05:50.880
to watch how a gamer reacts at 60hz versus

01:05:49.599 --> 01:05:55.920
did you watch ed we did okay good wow he's a lot better

01:05:53.680 --> 01:05:59.359
at 240 hertz but i won't spoil anything else about it because the findings with

01:05:57.359 --> 01:06:02.880
me and gavin were also interesting but in completely different ways yeah i was

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

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

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

01:06:18.559 --> 01:06:26.160
you're good at games my aim is fantastic actually my spread was pretty close to

01:06:23.520 --> 01:06:29.680
ed's wow but um what game my

01:06:28.319 --> 01:06:36.079
my kill time was much higher

01:06:32.799 --> 01:06:38.480
uh we used cs go with an auto snipe okay

01:06:36.079 --> 01:06:43.440
uh and then we had uh we had a target basically at an at an undetermined

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

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

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

01:06:52.880 --> 01:06:58.559
the target in the time that you had while they ran across the hallway okay

01:06:56.400 --> 01:07:02.480
um so you basically had to you had a pixel that you had to point at

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

01:07:04.799 --> 01:07:11.520
out as fast as you could as you ran across so interesting very interesting really

01:07:08.880 --> 01:07:15.359
really cool test and then uh what we did with the knowledge that we gained from

01:07:13.280 --> 01:07:20.000
working with gavin was we produced a second video the next day determining

01:07:18.079 --> 01:07:23.520
once and for all whether wireless mice

01:07:22.079 --> 01:07:30.000
are slower so we devised a mechanism

01:07:26.079 --> 01:07:31.839
to hit a mouse complete a circuit

01:07:30.000 --> 01:07:35.680
light up a light to show us the exact moment that they make contact and then

01:07:34.079 --> 01:07:39.839
we were able to use one millisecond frames at a thousand

01:07:37.599 --> 01:07:44.960
frames per second to see how long it takes the um the crosshair

01:07:42.960 --> 01:07:49.280
on the monitor behind it to start to move so we were we weren't

01:07:47.359 --> 01:07:53.920
able to actually determine down to one millisecond which mouse was faster

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

01:07:57.520 --> 01:08:02.319
to tell if any monitor on the market could

01:08:00.960 --> 01:08:06.559
possibly give you the feedback fast enough that

01:08:04.319 --> 01:08:10.880
you could detect a difference yeah and it's going to be a really really

01:08:08.160 --> 01:08:14.240
interesting video um so that's what i was doing with gavin

01:08:12.240 --> 01:08:17.440
commissioner says if the 64 core threadripper was cheap not sure where

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

01:08:22.000 --> 01:08:27.759
uh derek youtube premium gives free super chats i

01:08:25.440 --> 01:08:32.400
think that's what like most of this is zach says put it towards some tooling

01:08:29.520 --> 01:08:38.080
for the mill uh oh man that workshop is gonna be freaking awesome see bart

01:08:34.719 --> 01:08:40.480
hashtag save Channel Super Fun 20 bucks

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

01:08:42.880 --> 01:08:50.239
is not impossible that Channel Super Fun could end up resurrected as part of this

01:08:46.880 --> 01:08:52.400
diversification push we'll see

01:08:50.239 --> 01:08:56.880
it's not dead it's just you want to support you want to know a

01:08:54.080 --> 01:08:59.920
fun a fun little fact here remember the pigeon

01:08:58.000 --> 01:09:02.719
the pigeon was it i think it's called a pigeon

01:09:01.040 --> 01:09:06.400
um apple pigeon

01:09:04.839 --> 01:09:09.679
console pippin oh the pippin yeah yeah the app

01:09:08.239 --> 01:09:13.359
mark it's that it's probably paid for itself by now

01:09:11.759 --> 01:09:16.400
has it it's like three million views or something really yeah how much did we

01:09:14.880 --> 01:09:22.319
pay for that stupid thing again i think it was 500 bucks oh

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

01:09:24.560 --> 01:09:29.120
console and like a game and some controllers yeah

01:09:29.199 --> 01:09:34.880
yeah three million views hell yeah what's up nick you guys talking about

01:09:32.719 --> 01:09:38.560
merce oh oh he wants us to talk about the merch

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

01:09:40.880 --> 01:09:47.199
you get one yet okay oh really

01:09:44.719 --> 01:09:51.679
ouch nick is my savior because my luggage was lost

01:09:48.719 --> 01:09:54.719
you lost it no i did not no an airline did

01:09:55.280 --> 01:10:01.520
an airline did a hundred percent okay and my sweater was in there but nick

01:10:00.000 --> 01:10:05.040
nick swooped in and got me another one all right so this is the one

01:10:03.520 --> 01:10:08.719
he did but either way this is the one that's

01:10:07.199 --> 01:10:12.560
like the hot seller on the store right now it's nttstore.com

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

01:10:14.880 --> 01:10:21.360
the phone pocket on this side that holds even really big phones this is an early

01:10:18.560 --> 01:10:24.719
prototype so actually the um we had enlarged the phone pocket

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

01:10:27.679 --> 01:10:33.440
also this one see how yours goes a little bit lower

01:10:31.440 --> 01:10:36.960
we made it about an inch longer because this is an early one because it was

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

01:10:40.000 --> 01:10:46.960
me perfectly fine i know some people ask about how different fitting things

01:10:44.640 --> 01:10:51.280
work so yeah we change the zipper to ykk instead of whatever this is that's

01:10:49.120 --> 01:10:54.719
that's good yeah so we made some quality and some

01:10:52.800 --> 01:11:00.159
wearability improvements that's why these projects take so

01:10:56.960 --> 01:11:01.920
long because you're sending feedback

01:11:00.159 --> 01:11:04.800
you're waiting for new samples you're sending more feedback you're waiting for

01:11:03.280 --> 01:11:08.960
new samples if it was just as simple as like getting a shirt printed this merch

01:11:07.199 --> 01:11:13.520
stuff would have paid for itself ages ago as it is were

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

01:11:15.360 --> 01:11:22.480
terms of the total investment that we put in but honestly i'm so much happier

01:11:20.080 --> 01:11:26.880
like wearing our stuff okay as an outside party the the stuff i was

01:11:24.880 --> 01:11:30.880
most upset about losing in that like okay one random little tidbit i lost

01:11:29.120 --> 01:11:35.120
literally every single pair of bottoms that i own except for these shorts that

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

01:11:36.320 --> 01:11:41.280
take you a long time to get free bottoms to replace those bottoms because i know

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

01:11:43.040 --> 01:11:47.679
are the same jeans i've had for like seven years i believe you

01:11:47.760 --> 01:11:53.840
but okay as an outside source the shirts are insanely comfortable the

01:11:51.840 --> 01:11:57.600
constellation one is actually my like favorite shirt which is also gone out of

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

01:11:59.360 --> 01:12:07.520
color of shirt and so we're working on an overseas source um but unless it

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

01:12:10.080 --> 01:12:15.679
completely out of stock and not sell anything than compromise anymore i'm

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

01:12:17.199 --> 01:12:24.159
outside source your shirts are 20 bucks yeah basically no influencer shirts are

01:12:22.400 --> 01:12:27.760
20 bucks right now twenty dollars a shirt is the like

01:12:25.679 --> 01:12:31.040
five to ten years ago pricing for most of this kind of stuff which is pretty

01:12:29.360 --> 01:12:36.560
awesome the shirts feel great the printing's great the sweaters are thin

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

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

01:12:42.560 --> 01:12:49.520
this before so every thin sweater that i've had sucked this one's fantastic i

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

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

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

01:12:58.320 --> 01:13:04.239
bucks for a sweater again it's sweaters are kind of expensive but

01:13:02.320 --> 01:13:08.159
it takes us a long time to make this stuff so yeah

01:13:05.840 --> 01:13:12.000
yeah it is what it is go buy some pants well i have to now okay

01:13:10.800 --> 01:13:15.199
so i will start uh lloyd really wants to do

01:13:14.080 --> 01:13:19.120
joggers so joggers would be dope i i don't

01:13:17.199 --> 01:13:22.800
really like them though so my my new thing my new thing with the merch

01:13:20.640 --> 01:13:25.520
actually i i listened to a talk from kris jenner of all people

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

01:13:28.400 --> 01:13:34.800
respect the business savvy uh and she was like

01:13:33.280 --> 01:13:38.239
look focus

01:13:36.400 --> 01:13:42.320
focus on what you actually are passionate about

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

01:13:44.320 --> 01:13:51.040
got back to the office and i canceled the joggers project because i don't care

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

01:13:53.040 --> 01:13:58.159
about a lot so the underwear that's coming yeah

01:13:56.239 --> 01:14:03.120
it's really nice okay good because i lost also a very high percentage of my

01:14:01.040 --> 01:14:06.320
underwear the underwear the underwear fairly soon literally my entire wardrobe

01:14:05.040 --> 01:14:11.199
was just gonna be ltd stuff the underwear which i'm okay with it's like

01:14:08.880 --> 01:14:15.280
really nice yeah that's awesome anyway uh conor says can you recommend a

01:14:13.360 --> 01:14:17.920
battery pack that can power a USB-C powered laptop i don't know anything

01:14:16.800 --> 01:14:24.000
from like like anchor stuff he's pretty good anchor just go anchor i guess

01:14:22.000 --> 01:14:28.480
um weekend gaming nerds about i'm we're

01:14:25.440 --> 01:14:31.600
getting so many free super chats guys

01:14:28.480 --> 01:14:32.880
thank you uh twigs darkstalker azaril

01:14:31.600 --> 01:14:40.320
lee gamer uh matt aaron also marcos this is the new CPU

01:14:37.600 --> 01:14:45.440
shirt and it's super cool yeah i like that really look like tech

01:14:43.199 --> 01:14:50.400
yeah but if you but you can also identify it yeah yeah

01:14:48.320 --> 01:14:54.159
uh distro tube this show is cool have you guys ever considered switching to

01:14:51.920 --> 01:14:58.000
new lift news Linux find out more about free software

01:14:56.080 --> 01:15:02.159
software freedom and the new project at new.org

01:14:59.360 --> 01:15:04.400
oh thank you sweet we had never heard of that

01:15:04.800 --> 01:15:11.360
let me get right on that for our adobe premiere editing workflow

01:15:09.120 --> 01:15:15.040
well i'm not i'm not trying to be a hater we use

01:15:13.120 --> 01:15:19.360
Linux where it makes sense like our storage servers for example

01:15:17.600 --> 01:15:23.360
all of luke float playing crap runs on Linux yeah but

01:15:21.360 --> 01:15:26.800
we're not ready to advocate switching to Linux for like a media production

01:15:25.040 --> 01:15:30.880
environment it's not it's not a thing yet and before you

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

01:15:33.920 --> 01:15:39.520
doesn't do everything um

01:15:37.760 --> 01:15:42.080

lachlan danny um arash thank you very much uh midland

01:15:47.440 --> 01:15:52.719
says good evening guys wondering if there's a way to clone an internal SSD

01:15:50.480 --> 01:15:56.080
to an internal software raid1 SSD array that is a tremendous question and i have

01:15:54.880 --> 01:16:01.199
actually tried to figure out how to do it i don't

01:15:58.400 --> 01:16:06.400
know why with the Intel raid when you create it you can't just say

01:16:04.880 --> 01:16:11.840
hey all of that that one drive that one's good

01:16:09.840 --> 01:16:14.560
all of that to the other one too you have to clear them when you create

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

01:16:18.719 --> 01:16:24.560
like there are values that you that you write when you create a raid that kind

01:16:22.239 --> 01:16:27.760
of tie the two together it just seems like the kind of thing that someone over

01:16:26.239 --> 01:16:31.600
the last couple of decades might have engineered a solution to by now

01:16:29.760 --> 01:16:35.280
as far as i'm aware um

01:16:33.040 --> 01:16:38.560
i i don't know of a way to do it i'm sorry

01:16:36.320 --> 01:16:40.800
rehan uh says the search on Floatplane is there but doesn't seem to be

01:16:39.520 --> 01:16:44.719
effective yeah i know they're working on it yep

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

01:17:19.679 --> 01:17:26.400
like reply all uh watching your rig upgrade Thunderbolt config is it still

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

01:17:28.480 --> 01:17:34.400
put my old board back in because i don't have a Thunderbolt 3d

01:17:31.679 --> 01:17:37.600
Thunderbolt 2 adapter so really sad story especially because

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

01:17:39.760 --> 01:17:44.320
motherboard in a you know what i won't spoil it but

01:17:42.960 --> 01:17:47.679
there's more videos coming up that narrative is far from done

01:17:46.560 --> 01:17:52.800
uh now bill says hey Linus you're paying too much attention to the feedback great

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

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

01:17:59.280 --> 01:18:06.080
feedback because it does matter too it's just like filtering it that's the key

01:18:03.600 --> 01:18:11.199

01:18:09.760 --> 01:18:15.360
