1
00:00:01,120 --> 00:00:06,799
okay here we go we are live this is uh

2
00:00:04,160 --> 00:00:10,800
between two ferns uh the lioness tech tips edition i have laser james with me

3
00:00:08,880 --> 00:00:15,040
here today and we're gonna talk about a whole bunch of different privacy news

4
00:00:12,719 --> 00:00:21,680
including the whole facebook thing with mark the zuck zuckerberg um AMD navi GPU

5
00:00:19,119 --> 00:00:25,920
being potentially amazing or not nothing to do with privacy no and other

6
00:00:23,439 --> 00:00:31,279
non-privacy news yes there could be a new successor to the chromecast and

7
00:00:28,880 --> 00:00:37,040
competitor to amazon firestick i'm actually stoked on this oh stoked okay

8
00:00:34,239 --> 00:00:41,760
um and and mostly other privacy stuff but also the ftc says

9
00:00:39,840 --> 00:00:46,160
warranty void stickers like warranty voided for move stickers are bs

10
00:00:44,719 --> 00:00:50,079
which is awesome that makes me really happy but stay tuned to see that and

11
00:00:48,320 --> 00:00:55,360
more on the WAN Show that is actually going to have an intro today we're doing

12
00:00:51,440 --> 00:00:56,719
the intro oh no it wasn't ready Colton

13
00:00:55,360 --> 00:01:02,640
oh spoiler alert

14
00:00:59,039 --> 00:01:02,640
so the answer that question was no

15
00:01:04,720 --> 00:01:07,760
and we're dead

16
00:01:08,560 --> 00:01:11,560
okay

17
00:01:12,479 --> 00:01:19,119
be quiet! which you already saw i think synergy 2 and

18
00:01:17,400 --> 00:01:22,640
squarespace awesome you're going to put subscribe to

19
00:01:20,560 --> 00:01:26,400
the channel it works next time and go like that there we go

20
00:01:24,960 --> 00:01:32,000
welcome to the wine show you might be able to tell we've had a little bit of change of scenery we're actually in

21
00:01:30,320 --> 00:01:34,799
pretty close to the same area but i can't tell you why

22
00:01:33,600 --> 00:01:39,200
things have obviously changed or for how long or if

23
00:01:37,439 --> 00:01:43,600
they'll go back or when they'll go back or any of that detail so

24
00:01:41,759 --> 00:01:48,000
speculate as you will that's i think that's i think all i can do so

25
00:01:46,720 --> 00:01:52,479
good buddy let's go i've been good you've been away i haven't seen you and like i have been mostly awake i was like

26
00:01:50,799 --> 00:01:55,439
i'm gonna be in office way more from now on i made it in one

27
00:01:53,920 --> 00:01:59,680
day this week it was great wait you were in the city like in the country all week

28
00:01:57,920 --> 00:02:03,280
yeah you've been back from pax like that whole time yeah oh oh yeah i thought i

29
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:08,720
was like yeah he's back from packs cool like what happened tell us about it no i

30
00:02:05,280 --> 00:02:10,239
i got back on sunday pax was good um

31
00:02:08,720 --> 00:02:14,080
i did there was really not a lot of hardware stuff there we used to so like

32
00:02:12,480 --> 00:02:18,400
back when i first started working here um i asked lions my first time off

33
00:02:16,160 --> 00:02:21,840
request ever was to go to pax okay and i was like just assume that i'm

34
00:02:20,319 --> 00:02:27,120
gonna ask for this time off for the rest of my career working with you um and

35
00:02:24,560 --> 00:02:29,920
then immediately the next year he was like

36
00:02:28,480 --> 00:02:33,200
you're gonna work it just at pax and i was like okay well

37
00:02:31,680 --> 00:02:36,879
that sounds like a pretty okay compromise so i started making videos at

38
00:02:35,280 --> 00:02:41,440
pax about computer hardware now in retrospect

39
00:02:38,879 --> 00:02:46,160
good compromise it was it was it was interesting it was a fun thing to do um

40
00:02:43,840 --> 00:02:50,560
i really like pax so i've been to like 15 of them so working some of those was

41
00:02:48,319 --> 00:02:54,640
probably okay but there used to be an abundance of new

42
00:02:52,879 --> 00:02:57,920
interesting stuff at pounds usually peripherals we get a lot of keyboards we

43
00:02:56,160 --> 00:03:01,360
get a lot of mice get a lot of headsets that kind of stuff but we'd sometimes

44
00:02:59,440 --> 00:03:04,560
get cases and a few other things there's there was never like a graphics card or

45
00:03:02,879 --> 00:03:08,640
something but there was always a lot of technology videos to make sure that

46
00:03:06,640 --> 00:03:12,800
slowly started dwindling over the years the amount of potential technology

47
00:03:10,400 --> 00:03:16,840
videos that pax slowly started reducing constantly over time but here's my

48
00:03:14,080 --> 00:03:20,879
question yes so do you prefer to go as luke or as

49
00:03:19,680 --> 00:03:27,440
luke from Linus media group i i can't

50
00:03:24,640 --> 00:03:30,480
not go as luke from Linux media now yeah i guess but like on your third or fourth

51
00:03:29,360 --> 00:03:35,599
time there when maybe people didn't know you were luke from Linus media group as well okay

52
00:03:34,239 --> 00:03:39,840
so you were working there but you weren't like super famous

53
00:03:37,440 --> 00:03:44,319
so the that would be yeah there was like one year in that gap um and that that

54
00:03:42,480 --> 00:03:48,400
was pretty good it was funny because my dad always does this so okay

55
00:03:47,040 --> 00:03:55,040
a little bit of backstory when i go to pax i was born for facts back in the old

56
00:03:52,000 --> 00:03:57,360
days i was conceived at the Corsair

57
00:03:55,040 --> 00:04:02,239
booth my dad's been to a millionaires yeah i know so my my dad brought me pax

58
00:03:59,360 --> 00:04:05,680
as a like uh as a birthday present and he brought myself my best friend and so

59
00:04:04,159 --> 00:04:09,680
we went from when i was like really young uh and the first year that any

60
00:04:08,159 --> 00:04:13,280
amount of people knew me at all which was a very very small amount of people

61
00:04:11,680 --> 00:04:17,359
because i think i had been in one wayne show that's it oh wow by the time i went

62
00:04:15,040 --> 00:04:21,759
to this packs um that year my dad would like look around

63
00:04:20,239 --> 00:04:27,479
for anyone that stared at me for too long and then would go like get them and

64
00:04:23,919 --> 00:04:27,479
get them to come over

65
00:04:31,280 --> 00:04:38,000
uh so yeah that was pretty cool but yeah no it's i still i really like meeting

66
00:04:35,280 --> 00:04:42,479
people um i think the reason why i would have probably preferred the old one was

67
00:04:39,759 --> 00:04:45,280
because i liked pax more back in the day but that's not actually

68
00:04:44,240 --> 00:04:49,919
that doesn't have anything to do with yeah well that was my question ultimately was now that there's fewer

69
00:04:48,240 --> 00:04:53,919
videos to make do you get to enjoy the show more and it's kind of like

70
00:04:52,080 --> 00:04:58,000
the best of all worlds i would have if there was more stuff to check out the

71
00:04:56,240 --> 00:05:02,160
show overall is just it's much bigger now and when you become

72
00:05:00,639 --> 00:05:07,440
much bigger in terms of those types of shows it usually becomes a little bit more corporate a little bit more stale

73
00:05:05,360 --> 00:05:11,360
there's more rules now like back in the day a booth would have

74
00:05:09,120 --> 00:05:14,400
like a giveaway and everyone would swarm it and they'd like throw stuff out and

75
00:05:12,960 --> 00:05:17,520
it was crazy no you're not allowed throwing things because probably someone

76
00:05:16,240 --> 00:05:21,919
got hurt which has to ruin the fun and everything

77
00:05:19,600 --> 00:05:26,240
um and like i don't know it just it became bigger became more corporate it's

78
00:05:23,520 --> 00:05:30,400
not as like niche and nerdy anymore um it's still really cool it's a great

79
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:33,360
event i love going i hope ltx never suffers from that remember how much

80
00:05:31,680 --> 00:05:37,360
stuff we threw last year we exactly almost got murked

81
00:05:35,440 --> 00:05:40,639
it was like serious it was serious like looking at the size of your eyes biting

82
00:05:39,039 --> 00:05:44,240
your finger like that like that was actually too bad

83
00:05:42,639 --> 00:05:47,600
that was too far again yeah the case toss yeah we we are in closing at this

84
00:05:46,320 --> 00:05:50,400
time that's and that's what i was actually going to say not to promote ltx

85
00:05:49,440 --> 00:05:56,479
too much i don't even think we're supposed to on this show but i'm doing it anyways

86
00:05:54,400 --> 00:05:59,919
it was amazing the first year we had it was so much fun and i think there were

87
00:05:58,639 --> 00:06:03,440
some definite problems like the main stage was kind of under produced and

88
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:08,479
there was a couple others the sound was a big issue the music was an issue Linus

89
00:06:05,039 --> 00:06:08,479
wore a took and that really bothered me

90
00:06:08,880 --> 00:06:15,520
personally i love that that's like you're like the main stage

91
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:20,160
is an issue the sound is big issue Linus wore clothing that i didn't appreciate

92
00:06:18,479 --> 00:06:26,639
i mostly saw him when he was on stage and every time he came out and he had a touch on i was like who's this like uh

93
00:06:23,919 --> 00:06:28,960
opening hip-hop act like who's this guy and then it was latinus and i was like

94
00:06:27,919 --> 00:06:36,160
what a chook isn't part of your like he's like never worn not part of your uniform

95
00:06:33,199 --> 00:06:38,800
yeah i hear ya i hear you um yeah i don't know i'm really excited for the

96
00:06:37,600 --> 00:06:42,720
next one it's gonna be bigger we're gonna have more booths the main stages will be better

97
00:06:43,039 --> 00:06:48,639
i'm not gonna let them the enclosed uh case off is gonna be sweet because you

98
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:52,240
can do bank shots and try to damage it more by getting some kind of angle

99
00:06:50,319 --> 00:06:57,360
that's not gonna be my strategy okay you know you're gonna try to go off the sidewall or the roof

100
00:06:54,880 --> 00:07:00,720
i don't know hi or like roof sidewall ground you don't even have to i guess

101
00:06:59,039 --> 00:07:07,199
it's a distance challenge not a damaging challenge because if it was just trying to break the case you could just go

102
00:07:04,000 --> 00:07:07,199
completely laterally ready

103
00:07:08,240 --> 00:07:14,400
break the whole booth in half like yes i'm sure there'll be some kind of troll

104
00:07:12,240 --> 00:07:17,840
shots like that yeah probably anyways we should probably talk about

105
00:07:15,599 --> 00:07:22,080
actual news um i think we already introduced a bunch of topics but we can

106
00:07:19,440 --> 00:07:26,400
start with probably uh the most yeah

107
00:07:23,759 --> 00:07:31,840
expected topic of the week uh is that we learned this week that zuckerberg drinks

108
00:07:28,639 --> 00:07:31,840
water like this

109
00:07:32,960 --> 00:07:37,360
he's been working on this it's actually pretty good at this point

110
00:07:40,479 --> 00:07:47,199
yeah yeah then you gotta do the smile meter thing

111
00:07:44,800 --> 00:07:52,319
i can't do it i can't do that smoothly his smile is so granular the steps are

112
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:52,319
tiny

113
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:58,800
it's so good okay so i'm going to let me hold on i got to be Linus here for a

114
00:07:56,879 --> 00:08:02,720
second which i'm not used to there we go uh facebook users aren't changing their

115
00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:06,960
privacy settings despite uproar so this has been a pretty interesting wait a

116
00:08:04,720 --> 00:08:12,160
second who posted that in the forum uh shorty 88 junior

117
00:08:09,440 --> 00:08:16,720
good job always forget we do thank you very much i appreciate it um yeah so

118
00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:19,840
people aren't really leaving people aren't changing their privacy settings

119
00:08:18,400 --> 00:08:26,000
apparently people aren't even changing what type of things they share with the platform so there's this like giant

120
00:08:23,360 --> 00:08:29,599
uproar well actually i think it kind of speaks

121
00:08:27,440 --> 00:08:33,599
to the whole issue because if you watch any of the congress uh i don't even know

122
00:08:31,840 --> 00:08:39,360
what you call that the inspection of

123
00:08:35,680 --> 00:08:41,760
zuckerberg a lot of it was like um

124
00:08:39,360 --> 00:08:45,279
he keeps defaulting to be like okay we do tell them everything our terms of

125
00:08:43,200 --> 00:08:49,920
service is all here nobody reads it it's garbage we know that nobody reads it so

126
00:08:47,120 --> 00:08:54,000
we also have these these little um dialog boxes that are the top your news

127
00:08:51,839 --> 00:08:57,040
feed that tell you like hey in plain english

128
00:08:55,040 --> 00:09:01,120
you can share this with the world or not they do all these things to make it

129
00:08:59,040 --> 00:09:04,880
transparent what they're doing it's just no one cares though

130
00:09:03,040 --> 00:09:09,440
no one cares i like by and large no one cares so i

131
00:09:07,760 --> 00:09:13,600
think a surprisingly low amount of people actually care about their privacy

132
00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:17,680
there is like and i bet you a a abnormally high percentage of the

133
00:09:15,920 --> 00:09:21,200
audience here and i think an abnormally high percentage of tech people in

134
00:09:19,120 --> 00:09:24,720
general because uh i think those people actually understand better what's

135
00:09:23,519 --> 00:09:30,720
happening when they're putting their privacy out there um i i think the

136
00:09:28,160 --> 00:09:35,200
average person sees it as like oh some mega corporation knows that i like uh

137
00:09:33,600 --> 00:09:38,800
thong sandals yeah they've got nothing to hide maybe they'll sell me a few

138
00:09:36,800 --> 00:09:42,160
thong sandals and they don't understand that like it's going further than that

139
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:45,680
and your data is being picked apart further than that and facebook is selling it to people that you don't

140
00:09:44,399 --> 00:09:49,279
necessarily know well they don't sell the data well it

141
00:09:47,839 --> 00:09:54,959
gets given away improperly yeah well it still does yeah

142
00:09:52,080 --> 00:09:59,120
it really did before yeah so i don't know and like the fact that uh a myriad

143
00:09:57,440 --> 00:10:02,880
of platforms get hacked every single year and people's data gets pulled out

144
00:10:01,120 --> 00:10:06,320
of that not saying that happened to facebook but it happens to a huge amount

145
00:10:04,640 --> 00:10:10,959
of people you can check out uh i think it's have i been pwned.com yeah yeah

146
00:10:08,959 --> 00:10:13,440
that's not specifically facebook data no i'm i'm saying

147
00:10:12,240 --> 00:10:18,160
i'm talking about privacy in general yeah i actually said specifically i don't think it's happened to facebook

148
00:10:16,160 --> 00:10:22,800
like at all correct um but there has been huge companies that have had leaks

149
00:10:19,920 --> 00:10:25,920
like that and and those leaks could could make your facebook vulnerable if

150
00:10:24,480 --> 00:10:30,240
you're using the same password across lots of sites so what normally happens

151
00:10:27,519 --> 00:10:35,200
is like linkedin got hacked so the dark webs has your password for linkedin that

152
00:10:33,600 --> 00:10:38,880
gets bought by someone else who takes that password and tries it in a bunch of

153
00:10:36,959 --> 00:10:41,760
other sites like your email your bank facebook and if you're the type of

154
00:10:40,720 --> 00:10:45,279
person that has the same password everything you might be compromised on lots of

155
00:10:44,079 --> 00:10:50,880
sites that never actually got hacked themselves

156
00:10:47,200 --> 00:10:52,240
yeah um it's it's and like

157
00:10:50,880 --> 00:10:56,000
what i was more getting to is just the idea that people don't understand how

158
00:10:54,079 --> 00:10:59,440
their data can spread um and like not just on facebook i mean

159
00:10:58,079 --> 00:11:03,360
in terms of using the internet as a whole non-tech people don't necessarily

160
00:11:01,360 --> 00:11:05,920
understand how like putting their data in some place or

161
00:11:04,720 --> 00:11:09,920
putting their credit card information in some place can result in it getting to

162
00:11:07,920 --> 00:11:12,320
other places um but

163
00:11:10,959 --> 00:11:16,079
it kind of leads into the regulation discussion here because there's there's

164
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:19,360
yes there's a lot of talk uh about regulating facebook and there's

165
00:11:18,160 --> 00:11:23,680
kind of three different ways that that could go the first is what facebook

166
00:11:21,600 --> 00:11:27,279
would probably like which is just to self-regulate

167
00:11:25,040 --> 00:11:30,160
and that seems more and more basically everybody wants

168
00:11:28,399 --> 00:11:33,040
it seems more and more that it's like maybe less likely

169
00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:37,680
to me anyway because like to happen yeah okay yeah yeah

170
00:11:36,079 --> 00:11:40,240
because there's this awesome article that's been written by zainab what's her

171
00:11:39,200 --> 00:11:46,079
last name she's that security researcher i'm really bad with

172
00:11:43,760 --> 00:11:50,079
especially last names so she's awesome she wrote this uh kind of article that

173
00:11:48,320 --> 00:11:53,440
blew up about like 14 years of facebook's apology tour since the

174
00:11:52,079 --> 00:11:57,440
beginning like a lot of people gave uh props to

175
00:11:55,519 --> 00:12:01,120
zuckerberg for kind of taking ownership of what has happened at facebook and

176
00:11:59,440 --> 00:12:04,160
apologizing for it not like deflecting or saying mistakes were made but the

177
00:12:02,800 --> 00:12:07,519
same time he's been doing that for like a decade and a half so at some point

178
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:12,240
it's like stop stop letting him screw up so much

179
00:12:09,839 --> 00:12:15,200
yeah so option one facebook self regulates

180
00:12:13,440 --> 00:12:17,839
option two they regulate the entire industry

181
00:12:16,480 --> 00:12:21,120
that would be really stifling to innovation yeah really if

182
00:12:19,680 --> 00:12:23,760
you've ever worked at a company that was undergoing some kind of like

183
00:12:22,880 --> 00:12:29,040
um you know we're going to implement compliance for hipaa which is like a a

184
00:12:27,600 --> 00:12:33,440
health healthcare security thing

185
00:12:31,600 --> 00:12:35,760
that stuff is intense and drains company resources more than you could ever

186
00:12:34,800 --> 00:12:40,959
imagine unless you've actually gone through it yourself it's crazy and there's a ton of ton like that so if

187
00:12:39,040 --> 00:12:44,720
there was something like that for the social media industry

188
00:12:43,200 --> 00:12:49,040
you can basically guarantee yourself that there would be no new upstarts

189
00:12:47,360 --> 00:12:52,480
like that's hard enough to to make a new social network is hard

190
00:12:51,120 --> 00:12:56,720
enough given that network effects are such an important part of it like you need to have a bunch of users before

191
00:12:55,360 --> 00:13:01,279
it's useful to people if you're going to have this other layer of compliance

192
00:12:59,120 --> 00:13:06,000
you're basically solidifying facebook's position and all incumbents positions so

193
00:13:03,839 --> 00:13:11,120
that's yeah i don't i don't think you're guaranteeing that there will be no

194
00:13:07,680 --> 00:13:13,120
challenges um but

195
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:16,800
i haven't seen even without this i haven't seen very many successful

196
00:13:14,639 --> 00:13:20,959
challenges to facebook at all anyways google plus completely failed um and

197
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:24,720
anyone that really tries just gets bought and consumed anyways well that's

198
00:13:22,720 --> 00:13:28,720
what was funny when that one senator was like who's your biggest competitor it's

199
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:33,360
like you don't understand network economies because but by virtue of way

200
00:13:31,519 --> 00:13:37,760
they the way they work there are no competitors it's like it's a win winner

201
00:13:36,000 --> 00:13:41,040
take all such a situation where like everyone's on this platform therefore

202
00:13:39,279 --> 00:13:44,800
everyone's using this platform you can't split them there could never

203
00:13:42,399 --> 00:13:49,360
be half people here in half there yeah with com completely overlapping

204
00:13:46,560 --> 00:13:55,440
functions it doesn't work that way option three for regulation would be um

205
00:13:53,279 --> 00:14:00,000
if facebook itself just has a like dedicated third party or agency

206
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:04,399
that only regulates facebook like some kind of steward of the data um

207
00:14:02,800 --> 00:14:08,800
to me that's like the most likely situation but this one too

208
00:14:06,720 --> 00:14:12,959
enshrines facebook's current market position because

209
00:14:10,880 --> 00:14:16,480
if it's the case that facebook has so much data about you and they regulate

210
00:14:15,440 --> 00:14:22,240
such that that data can never leave facebook

211
00:14:19,920 --> 00:14:26,480
then no one else has no upstarts have access to that data in the way that um

212
00:14:24,800 --> 00:14:29,839
the developers on the facebook platform did in the past and that's how cambridge

213
00:14:27,920 --> 00:14:32,800
analytica came to get the big data that leaked anyway

214
00:14:31,040 --> 00:14:36,959
so if no one has access to that then they're just sitting on this gold mine

215
00:14:34,160 --> 00:14:40,639
of data that no one can compete with so you're kind of in a pickle any either

216
00:14:38,800 --> 00:14:45,440
way so i'm going to make a straw poll here

217
00:14:43,760 --> 00:14:49,760
which is how should facebook be regulated or not um

218
00:14:47,839 --> 00:14:55,760
you need four bro yeah it it self expands oh oh oh watch

219
00:14:53,040 --> 00:14:58,480
this dude it self regulates wait oh oh i think i have to fill this one out maybe

220
00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:02,000
and then hit enter uh not regulated self-regulated third

221
00:15:00,959 --> 00:15:07,680
there we go nice congratulations

222
00:15:06,079 --> 00:15:12,760
but like dedicated like they only regulate facebook

223
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:12,760
uh

224
00:15:14,399 --> 00:15:20,480
i can't type on this keyboard for some reason probably because it's way over there it's just a really weird one you

225
00:15:18,720 --> 00:15:22,720
know like it's this qwerty layout i don't know

226
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:29,519
i'm used to divorce i know it's been around since the 1870s but

227
00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:29,519
whatever

228
00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:35,600
okay so we have not regulated self-regulated third-party regulations

229
00:15:33,760 --> 00:15:39,519
specifically for facebook and government-wide spanning regulations are

230
00:15:37,680 --> 00:15:41,920
going to put a troll on sir no donkey balls

231
00:15:40,720 --> 00:15:46,000
donkey come on nope last week it was donkey balls

232
00:15:46,720 --> 00:15:54,320
we've been regulated internally self-regulated

233
00:15:52,240 --> 00:15:58,639
okay so check that straw pull out hit us with the feedback i want to see what you

234
00:15:55,759 --> 00:16:03,199
guys think um i kind of have my own opinion but ooh do

235
00:16:01,360 --> 00:16:07,920
you have a while we wait for that let's fantasize

236
00:16:04,880 --> 00:16:09,759
about some kind of future epic uh social

237
00:16:07,920 --> 00:16:12,720
network startup that's all blockchain based where

238
00:16:10,959 --> 00:16:17,519
every individual's data is completely owned by them is on a blockchain so that

239
00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:21,279
the entire internet is modular so that you can switch from one social network

240
00:16:19,519 --> 00:16:24,880
to another and bring your data with you and release to each social network

241
00:16:23,040 --> 00:16:29,040
exactly what you want that would be the most beneficial to new

242
00:16:27,600 --> 00:16:32,720
innovation because you could start up your own social network and people could

243
00:16:30,959 --> 00:16:36,320
come to it and be like here's all the data and here's all the connections

244
00:16:34,399 --> 00:16:40,240
here's all the people i know and suddenly you'd have like this really

245
00:16:37,680 --> 00:16:43,199
thick market and strong network effects right away

246
00:16:41,360 --> 00:16:47,360
someone said it's called steemit wow i don't like that platform but i is that

247
00:16:45,040 --> 00:16:51,199
how that actually works i know that platform is blockchain based but is it

248
00:16:49,040 --> 00:16:55,199
like what you're describing i don't think so i have no idea but what i have

249
00:16:53,279 --> 00:16:59,440
heard is that all the current social like blockchain-based social media

250
00:16:57,680 --> 00:17:03,680
projects are junk yeah i heard it on a podcast i don't

251
00:17:01,199 --> 00:17:06,880
actually know i haven't tried it myself pied piper

252
00:17:06,880 --> 00:17:11,919
i wouldn't put steam in my title sounds

253
00:17:10,000 --> 00:17:15,280
like steaming pile you know it's like it's like s-t-e-e-m-i-t

254
00:17:15,280 --> 00:17:20,160
or something like that i don't remember exactly how it works um i'm going to

255
00:17:18,400 --> 00:17:28,240
check in on this straw poll actually let's see okay wow okay not a meaningful

256
00:17:23,600 --> 00:17:29,919
split at all really oh donkey

257
00:17:28,240 --> 00:17:33,520
second place oh okay that plays into what we were saying earlier where it's like honestly most people don't really

258
00:17:32,559 --> 00:17:36,640
care um or even in our car but they just

259
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:40,880
don't know well that's fair

260
00:17:38,880 --> 00:17:44,960
i should have had a like i don't know and then i don't care that should have

261
00:17:42,400 --> 00:17:48,000
been that's donkey i guess the two together but yeah that's the problem is

262
00:17:46,480 --> 00:17:52,480
that they're both together so right now oh right i'm not on the screen

263
00:17:50,240 --> 00:17:56,480
right now we're looking at 25 for third party regulations specifically for

264
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:59,039
facebook i'm kind of surprised by that um

265
00:17:57,919 --> 00:18:03,039
do tell i'm just kind of surprised by that because in that situation you're putting

266
00:18:02,000 --> 00:18:07,760
a weight on facebook which i don't think anyone's going to care about but you're putting a

267
00:18:06,080 --> 00:18:12,720
weight on facebook so that opens the door to more other platforms but then those

268
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:17,679
other platforms are probably going to have the same problem and then do you at that point once

269
00:18:16,559 --> 00:18:23,280
they're big yeah take the regulations specifically for facebook and then push it on them

270
00:18:21,919 --> 00:18:27,200
or like so do you just let people run rampant

271
00:18:25,360 --> 00:18:30,799
with other people's data at the beginning and then go like

272
00:18:29,120 --> 00:18:34,080
you shouldn't have done that but we didn't tell you not to so it's okay but

273
00:18:32,320 --> 00:18:37,360
now you have to stop yeah it kind of sounds like you need to

274
00:18:35,919 --> 00:18:42,640
have a hybrid approach where there are certain ground rules for everybody to begin with but there already is existing

275
00:18:40,960 --> 00:18:47,440
laws plus you also have to consider uh users

276
00:18:45,679 --> 00:18:51,360
choices right not like because this is happening let's just

277
00:18:49,440 --> 00:18:55,120
there's a societal shift where people are prioritizing and caring more about

278
00:18:53,440 --> 00:18:58,320
this kind of thing right so if a new upstart comes knocking on your door

279
00:18:56,559 --> 00:19:02,559
asking you to become a user you're more likely to ask like well

280
00:19:01,200 --> 00:19:07,600
what kind of data like what are you guys doing what do you want from me yeah so

281
00:19:04,880 --> 00:19:12,559
in that climate then like maybe a light touch regulation is enough

282
00:19:10,160 --> 00:19:17,760
i don't know and then uh people the the next highest category that wasn't donkey

283
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:22,240
was government-wide spanning regulation which i'm not super surprised was up

284
00:19:19,760 --> 00:19:27,760
there not regulated i'm honestly pretty surprised that that even got 13 percent

285
00:19:25,039 --> 00:19:31,840
um but then i guess there are well those are the people who know how to set the

286
00:19:30,240 --> 00:19:35,360
permissions the way they actually want they're just like it's going fine just

287
00:19:33,360 --> 00:19:39,600
read the tos yeah people who are going to actually

288
00:19:36,799 --> 00:19:43,120
like manage it properly themselves um which unfortunately isn't everybody

289
00:19:41,360 --> 00:19:47,280
which is i guess the problem i have with it because like my mom is not going to

290
00:19:45,760 --> 00:19:52,480
understand what to do hi mom what she's listening she's probably watching but like i'm not

291
00:19:50,559 --> 00:19:56,720
saying that she's sitting there nodding she's like yeah yeah like it's it's

292
00:19:55,360 --> 00:20:00,960
my mom's actually surprisingly good with some things but she can also somehow

293
00:19:58,400 --> 00:20:03,600
manage to send emails with her text messaging program without any of us

294
00:20:02,400 --> 00:20:08,000
being able to figure out how for like months at a time um like it's it's

295
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:10,880
there's there's people that have a special touch with technology and

296
00:20:09,600 --> 00:20:14,960
there's people that when they use it it falls apart magically um

297
00:20:13,200 --> 00:20:17,919
and like as far as i can tell it has nothing to do with being her fault but

298
00:20:16,480 --> 00:20:21,679
anyways i love you um

299
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:24,880
but like i don't know there's people that are super in the know in a platform

300
00:20:23,280 --> 00:20:29,039
and there's people that aren't and it varies i took my socks off right

301
00:20:27,360 --> 00:20:35,520
before the show but now i want them back on why my feet got cold oh my goodness

302
00:20:33,360 --> 00:20:40,400
you're having cold feet about this regulation platform idea yeah

303
00:20:37,919 --> 00:20:43,200
changed my mind uh if we could get like four more people to vote for donkey that

304
00:20:42,080 --> 00:20:49,120
would be great because then it would be in first place and then we can just be done with this straw poll uh but i think

305
00:20:47,200 --> 00:20:55,360
we're probably done with this topic in general meanwhile AMD nabi gpus yeah

306
00:20:52,640 --> 00:21:00,880
rumor mill time let's uh let's get away from don't come through this way go away

307
00:20:57,440 --> 00:21:04,159
please thank you uh

308
00:21:00,880 --> 00:21:06,720
let's jump down to AMD navi navi is the

309
00:21:04,159 --> 00:21:11,120
next generation of architecture from AMD gpus and it is a seven nanometer

310
00:21:09,120 --> 00:21:15,600
architecture and the rumor these days is that it's not gonna

311
00:21:13,520 --> 00:21:20,159
it's not gonna be the source of the next wave of enthusiast cards

312
00:21:18,320 --> 00:21:24,400
it's not going to be the next vega

313
00:21:21,840 --> 00:21:28,559
in fact it's going to be a what they call the mainstream uh lineup

314
00:21:26,799 --> 00:21:33,760
which or mainstream tier which right now is the rx 580s those guys also thank you

315
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:35,840
ryujin 2013 on the forums

316
00:21:33,760 --> 00:21:41,280
yeah so what they're saying is that when

317
00:21:37,760 --> 00:21:43,120
these cards launch in 2019

318
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:48,000
they're gonna have a comparable performance to a gtx 1080

319
00:21:45,760 --> 00:21:53,679
which came out in the end of may basically june 2016

320
00:21:50,559 --> 00:21:55,280
but it'll cost about 250 bucks

321
00:21:53,679 --> 00:22:00,000
which is nice well because buying a 1080 right now is

322
00:21:57,039 --> 00:22:04,240
more than that msrp 250 bucks who knows what it'll actually cost fair

323
00:22:02,400 --> 00:22:08,080
mining stuff is going down a lot because bitcoin's super down right now well it's

324
00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:13,920
going up in the last day or two oh has it yes oh no it's coming back again yes

325
00:22:10,240 --> 00:22:15,120
it's back baby back again

326
00:22:15,120 --> 00:22:20,320
oh dear da nana and then with new cards that are high

327
00:22:18,799 --> 00:22:25,520
performance for lower dollar value it might become more profitable

328
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:28,880
so we'll see but yeah msrp has not been a realistic thing for actually quite a

329
00:22:27,280 --> 00:22:36,080
long time um especially on the AMD side we've seen

330
00:22:32,400 --> 00:22:37,840
accidental artificial whatever uh uh

331
00:22:36,080 --> 00:22:42,640
spawned from bitcoin inflation whatever you want on gpus for quite a long time

332
00:22:40,000 --> 00:22:47,520
even well before it was identified as being a bitcoin mining problem uh we had

333
00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:51,280
inflation and graphics card prices all the way from back to the launch of these

334
00:22:49,039 --> 00:22:53,840
cards which was well before mining bitcoin was like super

335
00:22:52,840 --> 00:22:58,240
trendy well the gtx yes yeah okay yeah

336
00:22:56,080 --> 00:23:02,080
i thought when i first read that and i i read that they were aiming navi at at

337
00:23:00,159 --> 00:23:04,880
this particular market segment i thought are they doing that like to satisfy

338
00:23:03,600 --> 00:23:10,000
shareholders is it just more cost effective and they're gonna it's a bigger addressable market because

339
00:23:08,400 --> 00:23:14,960
stop it max you're doing that thing you said you're gonna just get out of here

340
00:23:13,760 --> 00:23:21,600
all right there's just more people who have the money to buy a cheaper but like still

341
00:23:19,280 --> 00:23:25,679
good like well 250 is a really nice price point for a

342
00:23:23,120 --> 00:23:30,240
graphics card around 300 bucks is fairly reasonable for a quite a large amount of

343
00:23:28,320 --> 00:23:34,640
people for a graphics card yeah 250 bucks is pretty good still if if you can

344
00:23:33,120 --> 00:23:38,320
like pcs aren't going to get here

345
00:23:36,159 --> 00:23:43,760
realistically but if like at least not in the short term but 300 bucks in like

346
00:23:41,120 --> 00:23:47,520
2013 was like the golden i remember there was articles about it

347
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:50,960
all over the place where like 300 for a relatively high ticket item was really

348
00:23:49,520 --> 00:23:55,120
good for consumers because a lot of people could gather that much money in a

349
00:23:52,960 --> 00:23:58,320
reasonable amount of saving time this should be uh comparatively cheaper

350
00:23:56,960 --> 00:24:03,039
than because with inflation and everything with inflation and it's 250

351
00:24:00,640 --> 00:24:06,159
yeah uh but it isn't the full component for a computer but it's a nice upgrade

352
00:24:05,120 --> 00:24:10,799
it goes all over so it's a sound business it's a good product if they're just doing this strategically that would

353
00:24:08,799 --> 00:24:14,080
make sense but then i learned that actually

354
00:24:12,559 --> 00:24:17,919
history is repeating itself here because this is a new

355
00:24:15,760 --> 00:24:22,559
what they call manufacturing node this is a seven nanometer uh

356
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:26,000
part the lithography that is they can't get the yields on all their

357
00:24:24,320 --> 00:24:30,880
wafers uh at a at a rate

358
00:24:27,919 --> 00:24:34,480
or a quantity that makes a lot of sense economically for them so

359
00:24:32,799 --> 00:24:37,679
that was really convoluted let me just say what i actually have written down

360
00:24:35,919 --> 00:24:43,760
from a manufacturing point of view it is not feasible to produce a large GPU like

361
00:24:41,039 --> 00:24:48,080
a 1080 like a big one or a vega on a brand new cutting-edge process like

362
00:24:46,000 --> 00:24:50,799
seven nanometer early in the nodes life cycle because it's just a new technology

363
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:55,520
and they haven't ironed out all the manufacturing kinks yet so once they do

364
00:24:52,880 --> 00:25:00,159
it's conceivable that in the future maybe in 2021 that they could use the

365
00:24:58,240 --> 00:25:03,440
seven nanometer lithography to make bigger cards

366
00:25:01,840 --> 00:25:07,520
yeah makes sense the more you know

367
00:25:05,679 --> 00:25:11,919
hooray it's it's i don't know this is good uh

368
00:25:10,080 --> 00:25:16,320
for a lot of reasons AMD needs to keep doing well they're doing quite well right now uh one interesting observation

369
00:25:15,120 --> 00:25:19,919
that i had at pax we were talking about pax earlier on in the show Intel did not

370
00:25:18,320 --> 00:25:23,840
have a booth there that was weird Intel's had a booth at

371
00:25:21,600 --> 00:25:28,799
pax like every pax as far as i know for the last five or six years uh and video

372
00:25:26,640 --> 00:25:32,640
wasn't there that's not super surprising they used to be at every pax then they

373
00:25:30,400 --> 00:25:38,080
started dwindling off but okay no Intel no NVIDIA ASUS booth was much smaller

374
00:25:35,120 --> 00:25:42,159
than normal AMD had a fairly big booth that was poppin the whole event it was

375
00:25:40,320 --> 00:25:46,480
full there was queues for all the different stuff they had they had vr

376
00:25:44,240 --> 00:25:49,919
setups but there was vr setups multiple other places on the show that

377
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:53,520
didn't have a line but the line at AMD was full all the time it was an

378
00:25:51,520 --> 00:25:57,520
interesting experience to see that the community has kind of opened up to AMD

379
00:25:55,679 --> 00:26:03,520
as a whole if you look back into like 2014 they were actually the very much so

380
00:26:01,279 --> 00:26:07,440
underdog that like the underground people were like yeah i'm gonna buy one

381
00:26:04,799 --> 00:26:10,480
of these even though like you know maybe it doesn't make a ton of

382
00:26:08,880 --> 00:26:15,760
sense i'm gonna get it anywhere my money is just a donation name yeah basically

383
00:26:12,960 --> 00:26:18,960
but now it's actually a lot more logical to go for their stuff which is really

384
00:26:17,279 --> 00:26:23,200
cool and it's it's really cool to see them coming back um it was

385
00:26:21,440 --> 00:26:29,039
a pretty awesome moment to see their booth packed at pax yeah because

386
00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:32,400
even at pax west which was i guess in

387
00:26:29,039 --> 00:26:33,679
the very beginning of september 2017

388
00:26:32,400 --> 00:26:37,360
um the AMD booth was not that packed so

389
00:26:36,080 --> 00:26:42,880
you're saying now that this hasn't even been that long now that there's no competition

390
00:26:40,480 --> 00:26:47,600
their booth is popping well it helped i guess um and like they

391
00:26:46,080 --> 00:26:51,520
did a much better job with their booth which in a way

392
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:54,960
kind of sort of not really but kind of indirectly maybe there's a lot of

393
00:26:53,039 --> 00:26:58,480
caveats there i keep drinking water not like zuckerberg he's gonna work continue

394
00:26:57,440 --> 00:27:02,880
um oh he's got it he's got it

395
00:27:00,480 --> 00:27:06,880
sorry i'll ignore it i don't know um it it kind of shows success in the company

396
00:27:05,120 --> 00:27:12,240
they have the money to flaunt at an event spending way too much money on a

397
00:27:09,360 --> 00:27:15,840
ridiculously small roi of having a booth as a shareholder that angers me

398
00:27:14,960 --> 00:27:21,120
yeah yeah that makes sense it's if you look at the roi of a booth you're actually

399
00:27:19,520 --> 00:27:23,840
not showing to that many people and it costs a ludicrous amount of money you're

400
00:27:22,799 --> 00:27:29,200
probably gonna end up giving a whole bunch of product away uh you're probably gonna have to pay a bunch of staff like

401
00:27:27,120 --> 00:27:33,520
it's a really expensive thing to do but it's it's to cater to your super

402
00:27:31,360 --> 00:27:38,240
fans and the the roi is hard to describe but it it reaches um and

403
00:27:36,080 --> 00:27:41,520
then it is branding's huge in this space and you're you're making yourself a

404
00:27:39,760 --> 00:27:45,520
constant part of the conversation and you're trying to spread that roi beyond

405
00:27:43,360 --> 00:27:48,559
just that event that's kind of the idea so i don't know it was really

406
00:27:46,880 --> 00:27:52,720
interesting to see that i'm very happy about AMD's fairly recent success and i

407
00:27:51,520 --> 00:27:56,960
hope they keep going and i hope this is part of it because if you can get 1080

408
00:27:54,640 --> 00:28:02,159
performance off a 250 card that breaches people into a way higher

409
00:28:00,000 --> 00:28:05,679
level of gaming yeah but this is three years after the fact though like a year

410
00:28:04,480 --> 00:28:10,159
from now you're gonna have a 1080

411
00:28:08,240 --> 00:28:14,480
yeah which is like and we'll have to see like if mining does crash super hard and

412
00:28:12,799 --> 00:28:18,559
people start selling mining cards for dirt cheap then it might not matter because you

413
00:28:17,039 --> 00:28:23,039
might be able to get 1080s for around that price anyways they would just might

414
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:29,279
be kind of sketchy um but you're just the most tired car yeah

415
00:28:25,919 --> 00:28:30,880
or you might just got some games in me

416
00:28:29,279 --> 00:28:36,399
you turn your computer off it just falls apart because it's like i've been running for so long the dust was holding

417
00:28:33,679 --> 00:28:40,240
me together um or you might get 1080 tis for that price or whatever else right

418
00:28:37,679 --> 00:28:44,399
who knows but if mining does stay up there and the price of this does inflate

419
00:28:42,399 --> 00:28:46,559
that might still even be helpful who knows

420
00:28:45,440 --> 00:28:51,120
she's just trolling you man she's trolling me there's a door that's open here for

421
00:28:49,360 --> 00:28:55,760
people who don't know yeah max's loitering we like have to have the

422
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:58,880
contact because if i go to close the door oh i can't there's a sandbag in the

423
00:28:57,440 --> 00:29:03,919
way but if i go to close the door it will it will block the camera well not entirely actually you just have to look

424
00:29:02,000 --> 00:29:07,760
through like a fire rated window i would like to end the show that way actually

425
00:29:05,840 --> 00:29:12,880
by closing the door yeah i'll crawl under there remove the sound back

426
00:29:10,480 --> 00:29:15,760
okay okay i'm down wait wait till the end of the show that's going to be your

427
00:29:13,840 --> 00:29:19,679
easter egg it's going to happen yeah so anyways there's a weird a bunch of

428
00:29:17,760 --> 00:29:24,640
documentation showed up this is the next topic okay

429
00:29:21,840 --> 00:29:27,360
a bunch of documentation showed up uh uh at a random

430
00:29:26,480 --> 00:29:31,200
i mean to to our ears rise anyway people who

431
00:29:29,919 --> 00:29:36,559
aren't in the know of these things a random seeming manufacturer in china has

432
00:29:34,080 --> 00:29:43,360
the documentation that describes like specs out this new mysterious google

433
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:45,919
branded dongle which is like a 4k

434
00:29:43,360 --> 00:29:49,520
Android tv dongle as you can see yeah

435
00:29:48,240 --> 00:29:53,760
and some people might think this is boring because they're like yeah okay it's a

436
00:29:52,159 --> 00:29:57,679
roku or it's an amazon yeah i was wondering why you care so i'll tell you

437
00:29:55,520 --> 00:30:02,159
why i care so much i have a chromecast at home okay

438
00:30:00,159 --> 00:30:06,080
and i also have a google home okay those things work together

439
00:30:04,399 --> 00:30:12,320
they're attached to my tv which is a smart tv the smart tv has a remote

440
00:30:09,600 --> 00:30:16,960
and i use that remote and that smart tv to use apps like youtube a lot

441
00:30:15,039 --> 00:30:20,240
the problem is that google home

442
00:30:18,240 --> 00:30:26,240
and casting by voice is incompatible with my remote when i

443
00:30:23,120 --> 00:30:28,720
cast if i'm like google play the latest

444
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:33,120
Linus tech tips video on the tv and it plays it

445
00:30:30,320 --> 00:30:37,440
i can't then grab my remote and hit next video and start scrolling around and

446
00:30:34,399 --> 00:30:39,200
stuff like that because my smart tvs

447
00:30:37,440 --> 00:30:43,120
youtube app is a different app than the app that gets used when i cast things by

448
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:46,480
voice i basically have two youtube apps on my tv

449
00:30:44,559 --> 00:30:51,840
with this you're going to be able to do that just like when you have a amazon fire tv

450
00:30:49,360 --> 00:30:55,520
stick they actually the microphone the excuse me the remote is a microphone

451
00:30:53,679 --> 00:30:58,960
you can talk into it this remote is the same deal it has a

452
00:30:56,960 --> 00:31:01,919
dedicated google assistant button on it so this is the remote he's talking about

453
00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:07,120
by the way and presumably i'm going to be able to say

454
00:31:04,640 --> 00:31:10,399
googstar play this video on i don't want to hotword people i know i was going to

455
00:31:09,039 --> 00:31:14,559
say you guys got to appreciate that he didn't include the first word yes when

456
00:31:12,559 --> 00:31:17,840
he he's paying attention play the latest video i'll be able to watch that video

457
00:31:16,159 --> 00:31:20,559
and then i'll be able to just use my remote

458
00:31:19,200 --> 00:31:24,480
and then back and forth and that is gonna be sick

459
00:31:22,559 --> 00:31:27,840
that's huge for me hey google play the hipster song with the whistling

460
00:31:29,520 --> 00:31:34,960
i had to i'm sorry continue hey you don't want to leave

461
00:31:32,559 --> 00:31:38,240
those alexa play the hipster song with the whistling people out is that going

462
00:31:36,880 --> 00:31:42,159
to work though because i think that's a fairly specific

463
00:31:40,320 --> 00:31:47,200
keyword for google play no that that or sorry the key phrase oh

464
00:31:45,840 --> 00:31:50,480
the hipster song with the whistling because they put that in an ad

465
00:31:49,120 --> 00:31:55,360
and i tried a whole bunch of other descriptions for songs that i thought were pretty good

466
00:31:53,360 --> 00:31:59,840
it didn't work at all oh did you try the one the russian guy that goes

467
00:31:58,000 --> 00:32:04,240
does that work yes we've done it even on land show before oh that's awesome yeah

468
00:32:01,440 --> 00:32:09,360
yeah okay it's awesome okay sweet that's cool i'm surprised that works actually

469
00:32:07,679 --> 00:32:14,799
that's a great song you know the song i'm talking about it's called like

470
00:32:10,720 --> 00:32:17,039
seventh element by vedas get out

471
00:32:14,799 --> 00:32:20,880
i think that's that was my choose that's what i wanted so people in chat are

472
00:32:18,240 --> 00:32:24,240
saying that it's like basically a shield tv

473
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:29,039
but in a small compact dongle but i think it does a little bit

474
00:32:26,799 --> 00:32:32,880
less and plus the price point those things

475
00:32:30,880 --> 00:32:36,159
are over 200 bucks oh yeah so this is probably gonna be way cheaper the shield

476
00:32:34,399 --> 00:32:39,600
will also be able to like cast games to your tv which is like

477
00:32:38,159 --> 00:32:44,799
you're you're you're in a little bit different of a of a range there the shield also has a

478
00:32:42,960 --> 00:32:49,039
voice controllable remote and the easiest way to think about it is

479
00:32:46,240 --> 00:32:54,320
going to be there are already Android tv boxes it's just going to be that with

480
00:32:52,080 --> 00:32:58,640
google assistant integration and voice remote

481
00:32:56,080 --> 00:32:58,640
people in chat

482
00:32:59,519 --> 00:33:06,000
i'm guessing that the price point will be like what 120 130 bucks is that how

483
00:33:03,360 --> 00:33:11,440
much a fire tv stick is let me search the american internets

484
00:33:08,240 --> 00:33:13,519
yeah where these things exist oh my

485
00:33:11,440 --> 00:33:13,519
god

486
00:33:15,519 --> 00:33:21,840
while you do that fire truck no they know it from last

487
00:33:19,360 --> 00:33:21,840
tech tips

488
00:33:23,120 --> 00:33:30,640
what did you guys think about the fire pole video good god it's thirty dollars

489
00:33:27,919 --> 00:33:35,679
fire tv stick with alexa voice from 30 bucks that's really cheap even the 4k

490
00:33:32,880 --> 00:33:38,880
one is only 50. a 4k chromecast is like 70 usd

491
00:33:37,519 --> 00:33:43,919
isn't it i don't know hold on let me google some more

492
00:33:41,039 --> 00:33:43,919
do it do it

493
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:50,720
you can get a chromecast on amazon now can't you wasn't that the whole thing that they argued about before

494
00:33:49,360 --> 00:33:56,159
can you do it now though because i know they're arguing about it but i don't know if it's like already an option oh

495
00:33:53,440 --> 00:34:00,480
that got pretty settled it auto filled i don't see it i see a shield they sell

496
00:33:57,840 --> 00:34:04,799
NVIDIA shields for 200. it comes with a gamepad though yeah

497
00:34:02,480 --> 00:34:07,840
because you can play Android games on it some of them i guess

498
00:34:09,520 --> 00:34:15,440
yeah i'm totally going to sell my chromecast and get one of these donald if it comes out they're probably going

499
00:34:13,520 --> 00:34:18,839
to announce it at i o i o is in a month it's in may google i o

500
00:34:17,040 --> 00:34:24,240
it's going to be sweet can you work on this heck yeah yeah okay i thought so so

501
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:28,079
while you're looking that up i'm gonna do a little Floatplane moment 70 bucks

502
00:34:26,079 --> 00:34:32,399
i was right i have to 70 okay okay so it is a little bit more expensive uh

503
00:34:30,000 --> 00:34:37,280
Floatplane has awesome stuff on it kyle from bitwit currently has cool cooler is

504
00:34:34,960 --> 00:34:41,040
cool what happens if we if we remove the fans it's a be quiet! cooler that should

505
00:34:38,879 --> 00:34:45,599
be a pretty interesting video also he has a 32x9 gaming setup that he wants to

506
00:34:43,839 --> 00:34:49,599
show off in a different video Linus tech tips has a wearable coast

507
00:34:48,560 --> 00:34:55,520
house a merged keyboard and mouse

508
00:34:52,720 --> 00:35:00,000
it is a cause i like it that was by accident but i'm

509
00:34:57,440 --> 00:35:03,839
kind of down with it uh it's so can you tell me a tiny amount but what this

510
00:35:01,520 --> 00:35:08,560
thing actually is so it's these rings that you wear on your fingers yeah if

511
00:35:05,839 --> 00:35:11,520
you lay your hand on a table okay it's a mouse

512
00:35:09,760 --> 00:35:14,960
if you don't and you just put your wrist on the edge of a table and you tap on a

513
00:35:12,880 --> 00:35:18,880
table it's a keyboard and it can know based on like if you

514
00:35:17,040 --> 00:35:22,800
stretch your finger or whatever it's not

515
00:35:20,240 --> 00:35:25,599
uh spatial it's not like a is over here and p is over here okay you actually

516
00:35:24,480 --> 00:35:30,480
have to learn a bunch of gestures like it's his own language

517
00:35:27,920 --> 00:35:34,160
like that's a that's n oh that's r

518
00:35:32,240 --> 00:35:38,720
yeah okay i learned it all can you type properly that way i can

519
00:35:36,480 --> 00:35:44,480
type how fast uh i can survive

520
00:35:42,160 --> 00:35:48,480
like probably dial up like i could describe it as okay okay that's cool

521
00:35:46,560 --> 00:35:51,839
though i don't know it's sweet i like it a lot and it's good at what it's doing

522
00:35:49,920 --> 00:35:56,320
like it's it doesn't register i'm not gonna give away the video no yeah don't

523
00:35:53,440 --> 00:36:00,720
go any further perfect uh there's also uh the continuation of the apple fiasco

524
00:35:59,119 --> 00:36:03,599
with the imac pro um

525
00:36:02,160 --> 00:36:08,480
buying a video card without getting screwed and some other cool stuff like

526
00:36:06,000 --> 00:36:11,200
the history of the motherboard i haven't seen that video i'm going to watch that

527
00:36:10,320 --> 00:36:14,880
video because i grew up with these super janky

528
00:36:13,440 --> 00:36:18,240
weird motherboard setups and i grew up with like my dad's computer where

529
00:36:16,560 --> 00:36:22,560
basically to build the computer you had to have a whole bunch of add-in cards

530
00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:26,640
because the motherboard was so bare and it didn't have like like you didn't have

531
00:36:24,560 --> 00:36:30,400
onboard nick okay he didn't have on-board lan for Ethernet connection so

532
00:36:28,400 --> 00:36:34,160
he had to have a nic card in order to have connections i remember when we

533
00:36:32,079 --> 00:36:38,960
bought our first uh computer my like i remember being in the shop when we were

534
00:36:35,680 --> 00:36:41,040
buying it and it was like for hours and

535
00:36:38,960 --> 00:36:44,400
we like bought a sound card yeah like that's just totally integrated didn't

536
00:36:42,640 --> 00:36:48,720
have audio on board probably yeah so like that i'm 100 certain that that is

537
00:36:47,359 --> 00:36:53,920
going to be a sick video so be sure to check that out check out Floatplane you can go to Floatplane.com and sign up

538
00:36:51,839 --> 00:36:57,839
there or you can do it through the forum but we are moving over to Floatplane.com

539
00:36:56,160 --> 00:37:01,040
and honestly the payment system on Floatplane.com works way better so if

540
00:36:59,520 --> 00:37:05,760
you want to have less issues i would probably go there um but it only supports credit card

541
00:37:04,000 --> 00:37:10,560
right now we will be supporting uh paypal in the future but

542
00:37:07,599 --> 00:37:10,560
cryptocurrencies

543
00:37:10,960 --> 00:37:17,680
kitties yeah well you can get a year of flow plane for a single crypto kitty

544
00:37:15,839 --> 00:37:20,800
what is a cryptokitty what you don't know what cryptokitties is

545
00:37:19,520 --> 00:37:24,880
it's nothing worth describing it's like come and gone this is like a four month

546
00:37:22,560 --> 00:37:27,839
old is it like a meme it's like a it's like a

547
00:37:25,920 --> 00:37:32,720
ethereum based game where you trade

548
00:37:29,920 --> 00:37:32,720
digital kitties

549
00:37:34,480 --> 00:37:37,839
you just zuckerberg

550
00:37:39,040 --> 00:37:44,280
are you telling me to zuck off uh i just

551
00:37:53,760 --> 00:37:59,280
there we go i think we've completed our ritual we didn't get to watch that but i

552
00:37:57,440 --> 00:38:02,160
think we were in sync i think so yeah i noticed when mine was like going down

553
00:38:01,040 --> 00:38:06,960
that yours was going down at the same time and stuff and i was like i saw it in the corner you were doing that smile

554
00:38:05,599 --> 00:38:12,079
yeah yeah oh you did the smile meter thing yeah it was later there okay so as long as we did do we just

555
00:38:10,240 --> 00:38:15,680
become best friends okay that movie was amazing i just have

556
00:38:13,680 --> 00:38:21,920
to say that uh let's get back on topic though actually no let's do ad spots

557
00:38:19,440 --> 00:38:24,640
we might as well synergy

558
00:38:24,800 --> 00:38:29,839
yes yes correct synergy two synergy is a

559
00:38:28,079 --> 00:38:33,200
mouse and keyboard sharing software so you can have multiple computers even

560
00:38:31,839 --> 00:38:36,720
multiple different types of computers like a laptop and a desktop and you

561
00:38:34,960 --> 00:38:40,480
could have like Linux on one of them and Windows or mac or whatever and you could

562
00:38:39,040 --> 00:38:44,079
share your mouse and keyboard across all of them it doesn't even matter which mouse and keyboard you use you can even

563
00:38:42,720 --> 00:38:50,320
use a cause yeah yes i want to make that a thing um and

564
00:38:49,440 --> 00:38:55,359
now with synergy one you had to have like one of the computers set up as a server

565
00:38:53,680 --> 00:38:58,880
and i think that was the one that had to have the most keyboard plugged into it

566
00:38:57,280 --> 00:39:02,960
and then you had like all the client boxes and all kinds of stuff all that's

567
00:39:00,640 --> 00:39:05,200
been massively simplified uh it doesn't really matter which one you have the

568
00:39:04,000 --> 00:39:10,480
stuff plugged into you can share it across all of them it's like super simple now uh there's ssl encryption so

569
00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:14,960
you don't have to worry about someone like taking over your stuff which would be not great

570
00:39:15,280 --> 00:39:20,560
just you know not in good in general

571
00:39:18,720 --> 00:39:24,960
you can even use a raspberry pi now which is pretty nuts

572
00:39:22,480 --> 00:39:27,599
they fixed issues with reconnecting all the computers after one of them goes to

573
00:39:26,640 --> 00:39:32,400
sleep they fixed issues where redundant connections were being created between

574
00:39:30,800 --> 00:39:36,480
machines which would also be not necessarily good things things are great

575
00:39:34,800 --> 00:39:38,880
if you have multiple computers if you go to work with a laptop and then bring it

576
00:39:37,839 --> 00:39:42,400
home and want to be able to put it on your desk and easily transfer files from

577
00:39:41,119 --> 00:39:46,480
one to the other just by dragging and dropping from one desktop to the other

578
00:39:44,320 --> 00:39:52,320
one and just really nice seamless stuff like that check out oh i guess seamless

579
00:39:49,440 --> 00:39:55,440
seamless dot com synergy slash wan five

580
00:39:53,440 --> 00:40:00,720
use the use the five yeah it's important

581
00:39:57,440 --> 00:40:03,520
also speaking of kyle's video on

582
00:40:00,720 --> 00:40:08,160
Floatplane we've got be quiet! they're a sponsor of the show you can

583
00:40:05,440 --> 00:40:14,160
check out their dirk rock pro 4 and their nadas pro but still pretty cool

584
00:40:10,800 --> 00:40:17,839
dark rock 4 itself the dark rock 4 and

585
00:40:14,160 --> 00:40:20,880
dark rock pro 4 CPU coolers uh

586
00:40:17,839 --> 00:40:24,560
include virtually inaudible silent wings

587
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:28,160
135 millimeter pwm fans uh it achieves a

588
00:40:24,560 --> 00:40:30,560
quiet 21.4 db at maximum fan speed which

589
00:40:28,160 --> 00:40:34,880
is actually pretty sweet um smells pretty good in there too oh my you know

590
00:40:32,800 --> 00:40:38,800
okay slight tangent while we're on topic sorry be quiet! but mouse pads smell

591
00:40:37,119 --> 00:40:42,800
terrible when you first take them out of the box but anyways

592
00:40:40,640 --> 00:40:46,320
um they they eventually this is pretty bad

593
00:40:43,839 --> 00:40:48,960
it smells like a tire yeah that's yeah that's true i mean it could be worse i

594
00:40:47,680 --> 00:40:54,079
was expecting like the smell of fingertips

595
00:40:50,720 --> 00:40:56,160
but it's not that interesting okay uh it

596
00:40:54,079 --> 00:41:01,839
supports an additional 120 millimeter fan clips are included in the scope of

597
00:40:59,040 --> 00:41:05,680
delivery uh there's a brushed aluminum top cover which looks pretty nice it

598
00:41:03,440 --> 00:41:09,359
like covers up the the fin stuff so that's what you see inside your pc we

599
00:41:07,440 --> 00:41:12,880
can replace my face with it now i'm like the man with the apple in

600
00:41:10,800 --> 00:41:16,960
front of his face anyways moving on uh there's a three-year manufacturer

601
00:41:14,160 --> 00:41:20,640
warranty which is great uh and and yeah if you need a CPU killer check them out

602
00:41:18,960 --> 00:41:24,720
they're on newegg and other websites but we have links for

603
00:41:23,599 --> 00:41:28,960
newegg which will be in the video description on youtube

604
00:41:26,960 --> 00:41:33,839
moving on squarespace i feel like we haven't had a squarespace spot in a

605
00:41:30,880 --> 00:41:38,480
while but i'm here so i'm happy 24 7 live chat and email support for your

606
00:41:35,440 --> 00:41:40,640
website which you can set up super fast

607
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:43,319
on squarespace you can save 10 off with offer code wan if you want to check it

608
00:41:42,400 --> 00:41:47,760
out at squarespace.comwan it's 12 bucks a month

609
00:41:45,520 --> 00:41:52,160
you get a free domain if you sign up for square space for a full year which makes

610
00:41:50,240 --> 00:41:56,000
sense because domain leases are for a year it has responsive design so if you

611
00:41:54,160 --> 00:42:00,400
go to any device like a watch a cell phone a laptop a big computer monitor

00:42:06,720 --> 00:42:12,400
which is great and everyone can publish an apple news format which is great

615
00:42:10,880 --> 00:42:16,720
because that format can go into a whole bunch of other formats so you can

616
00:42:14,319 --> 00:42:19,520
publish blogs in in on pretty much everything which is which is good you

00:42:18,240 --> 00:42:25,119
can start a trial with no credit card required and start building your website today to make sure that it works for you

618
00:42:23,040 --> 00:42:30,480
again check out squarespace.comwan and use offer code wan to save 10 on your

619
00:42:27,599 --> 00:42:36,000
first purchase back to the show boom the beginning of the end of passwords yes so

620
00:42:34,480 --> 00:42:42,319
there could be a future soon where you very

621
00:42:39,200 --> 00:42:44,000
very seldom enter a password

622
00:42:42,319 --> 00:42:47,040
which would be dope because passwords suck

623
00:42:45,440 --> 00:42:53,520
so what happened is there's this there's this new security standard called

624
00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:56,480
web often like authentication yeah

625
00:42:53,520 --> 00:43:00,400
that's so stupid it's weird thanks guys i thought it was a typo at first like i

626
00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:04,480
was like oh it appears more than once oh you didn't account for people saying

627
00:43:02,640 --> 00:43:09,599
this out loud but okay um web often has won near final approval

628
00:43:07,040 --> 00:43:14,319
from the world wide web consortium which is the governing body for these kinds of

629
00:43:11,280 --> 00:43:15,760
standards so what this is is

630
00:43:14,319 --> 00:43:19,920
on your phone you're unlocking your phone with face id or with your

631
00:43:17,359 --> 00:43:25,040
fingerprint all the time right but you don't do that when you go to

632
00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:31,119
facebook.com or basically any other website all recipes for them you enter

633
00:43:27,760 --> 00:43:33,680
in just a password um setting up a face

634
00:43:31,119 --> 00:43:37,680
a biometric um a password on all different websites

635
00:43:35,839 --> 00:43:41,119
would take a long time you'd have to not only would they have to implement that

636
00:43:39,599 --> 00:43:44,400
that technology but then you'd have to like do your all those different finger

637
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:50,160
taps on every different finger for every website and that'd be really annoying

638
00:43:46,319 --> 00:43:51,760
so what this is is it's an API

639
00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:54,400
an application programming interface that all the different websites

640
00:43:53,520 --> 00:43:59,839
will will hook into and then you only have to

641
00:43:56,880 --> 00:44:03,520
set up your biometric passwords once and then the whole web

642
00:44:02,079 --> 00:44:09,520
can rely on them which is going to be be a name yes so

643
00:44:06,880 --> 00:44:15,200
for hackers all you really need to do is break one system yeah and then you get

644
00:44:12,079 --> 00:44:16,880
all of them yes sick

645
00:44:15,200 --> 00:44:22,880
i might be wrong but this is how i think it works because the i had to do some

646
00:44:20,000 --> 00:44:27,920
some digging beyond uh just what was found on the forum the forum post by the

647
00:44:25,040 --> 00:44:32,720
way was posted by matthew valencia thank you very much thank you matt

648
00:44:30,240 --> 00:44:38,000
you sound italian what valencia that's spanish sounding to

649
00:44:35,119 --> 00:44:42,960
me i'm really bad at that so you're probably totally right it

650
00:44:40,240 --> 00:44:46,400
could be really hard it could be either uh yeah i don't know it sounds like it

651
00:44:44,800 --> 00:44:49,200
could be cool it sounds like it could be a single point of failure it just

652
00:44:47,920 --> 00:44:53,040
depends on i guess how they exactly

653
00:44:51,680 --> 00:44:57,760
implement it you can require something

654
00:44:56,160 --> 00:45:02,480
like a yubikey which i think is actually pretty cool

655
00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:06,880
so if they if they add power to the user in terms of like oh

656
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:11,280
i'm okay with fairly weak authentication and you want

657
00:45:09,359 --> 00:45:14,480
to go that route that's fine i don't care if someone doesn't really care

658
00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:19,599
about their accounts that's okay if you have one password for everything and you

659
00:45:16,240 --> 00:45:22,640
think that's okay that's fine um as long

660
00:45:19,599 --> 00:45:24,880
as it's in your control to amplify that

661
00:45:22,640 --> 00:45:28,720
and have more security if you want to go to like

662
00:45:26,400 --> 00:45:32,880
having two factors still like a yubikey and something else that could be pretty

663
00:45:30,000 --> 00:45:36,560
cool um well you kind of already have a single point of failure like if someone

664
00:45:34,880 --> 00:45:40,400
were to get my phone which they would unlock with fingerprint

665
00:45:38,079 --> 00:45:44,560
or if they were to get my laptop and unlock with a password then i have all

666
00:45:42,480 --> 00:45:48,800
those autocompletes set up so they kind of have everything anyway see but then

667
00:45:46,000 --> 00:45:52,480
that's that's uh an in your control thing yes mine doesn't

668
00:45:50,560 --> 00:45:56,160
if someone got my phone yeah yeah they have access to

669
00:45:54,160 --> 00:46:00,079
not very much i would have access to my email which is pretty bad

670
00:45:57,839 --> 00:46:04,160
um and i guess they would have but they they don't have access to like my

671
00:46:01,599 --> 00:46:08,880
password trove and nothing autocompletes but they would have my email so they

672
00:46:06,000 --> 00:46:12,720
could probably reset most things um but like yeah i don't know but even if

673
00:46:11,520 --> 00:46:16,880
even if you're the kind of person who like doesn't care about things um

674
00:46:15,200 --> 00:46:19,359
wouldn't those like how are they gonna get a hold of your

675
00:46:18,400 --> 00:46:26,000
of your biometric information isn't that just hashed isn't it totally

676
00:46:24,000 --> 00:46:30,400
yeah but okay so the there's there's different types of of

677
00:46:28,560 --> 00:46:35,359
hacking so you could find a vulnerability in the

678
00:46:33,119 --> 00:46:40,400
system that no longer requires you to use those sure yeah okay right there's

679
00:46:37,680 --> 00:46:45,119
like things yeah it's and and someone will probably find one of those okay uh

680
00:46:42,880 --> 00:46:49,200
whether it ends up on zero day and gets solved or whether it gets sold or what

681
00:46:47,280 --> 00:46:53,440
happens with it who knows and having

682
00:46:50,800 --> 00:46:56,800
one central system if it's open source uh and you have a whole bunch of huge

683
00:46:55,359 --> 00:47:02,319
companies working on making sure that it stays secure could be really awesome and

684
00:46:59,760 --> 00:47:05,280
could like really lock things down um one thing that's awesome about this is

685
00:47:03,520 --> 00:47:07,680
if you're not even that savvy or serious about your privacy

686
00:47:06,720 --> 00:47:12,880
um you're more protected with this because you can't be phished with this

687
00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:18,079
because your password is like a secret that you know and

688
00:47:16,160 --> 00:47:21,119
just because no one else knows it doesn't mean that they can't get it just

689
00:47:19,440 --> 00:47:27,359
by asking you what it is which is what phishing is

690
00:47:27,359 --> 00:47:35,280
my wife actually got an sms recently that was like your your telco

691
00:47:32,800 --> 00:47:40,480
has given you a refund or your isp is giving you a refund of 114.61

692
00:47:38,240 --> 00:47:44,800
click through you click through and it's got tiles for each of the common banks

693
00:47:43,440 --> 00:47:49,680
in canada totally branded looks totally professional looks awesome and you just

694
00:47:48,480 --> 00:47:55,200
you click on that and it's like you enter your banking credentials and then boom they have everything if she didn't

695
00:47:52,880 --> 00:47:59,280
explicitly know like uh this isp never texts me they never text

696
00:47:58,000 --> 00:48:03,599
me and they have no reason to give me a refund but like how tempting is that like oh

697
00:48:01,680 --> 00:48:07,599
free money free money yeah anything's possible sms

698
00:48:05,839 --> 00:48:10,560
people get fished all the time so you can't get fish with this

699
00:48:12,640 --> 00:48:18,839
you still totally could because if it would just be done in a different way

700
00:48:16,640 --> 00:48:23,839
because you would have to have it capture your authentication i guess

701
00:48:22,240 --> 00:48:27,680
so because you're saying this is a general API for everyone right so they

702
00:48:26,559 --> 00:48:33,440
would be so you would go to the phishing site and it would be like scan your fingerprint

703
00:48:31,280 --> 00:48:38,000
and you'd be like click when you have to when you get like it on

704
00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:42,240
Android or iOS when you get a a permission prompt that was like share

705
00:48:40,319 --> 00:48:44,319
your fingerprint with this website and you'd be like that's weird i already did

706
00:48:43,599 --> 00:48:48,720
that and then even if you did say yes to that they'd scan your fingerprint it would

707
00:48:47,520 --> 00:48:55,119
just be once which may not be enough to like totally get super dangerous may not be enough i

708
00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:58,559
don't know it still might work its potential you could also algorithm it

709
00:48:56,800 --> 00:49:02,319
out to like angle it slightly to try to make it slightly different um and

710
00:49:00,640 --> 00:49:05,760
honestly i would honestly think most people would go like oh yeah go away

711
00:49:04,319 --> 00:49:10,640
to any prompt that's like do you want to share this with the website could be um

712
00:49:07,839 --> 00:49:16,559
it's it's still possible there's there's phishing attempts that succeed that are

713
00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:18,880
super garbage all the time uh and

714
00:49:16,559 --> 00:49:23,119
there's actually some people who intentionally make things like fishing

715
00:49:21,359 --> 00:49:26,559
uh attempts that are really bad

716
00:49:24,800 --> 00:49:30,559
because they don't want to get savvy people ah

717
00:49:28,480 --> 00:49:34,160
so they actually weed out savvy people by making it

718
00:49:31,839 --> 00:49:37,280
fairly obviously fake so if someone does fall for it they can probably get way

719
00:49:36,000 --> 00:49:43,760
more from them that's because they're really gullible yeah there's there's oh that's amazing

720
00:49:40,480 --> 00:49:46,640
the the world of of people trying to

721
00:49:43,760 --> 00:49:49,599
benefit off of other people uh is vast and well-educated that actually is a

722
00:49:48,160 --> 00:49:54,720
pretty good segue into another thing that happened which is this ransomware

723
00:49:52,160 --> 00:49:59,839
that asks yeah pubg get this ransomware it's like your data

724
00:49:57,280 --> 00:50:03,280
is encrypted the only way to get it back is to play this video game

725
00:50:03,359 --> 00:50:09,200
like we're not affiliated just play it because it's awesome or if

726
00:50:07,359 --> 00:50:12,079
you don't want to do that just enter the password that's actually written right

727
00:50:10,640 --> 00:50:15,760
here on the screen so it's just like just like a joke

728
00:50:14,000 --> 00:50:19,440
i don't know maybe someone just wanted to play it maybe it's a viral marketing

729
00:50:17,599 --> 00:50:26,480
campaign it's obviously like bad and stuff viral

730
00:50:23,119 --> 00:50:26,480
it's a viral it's a virus

731
00:50:27,599 --> 00:50:35,599
i like that i didn't pick up on that right away first um it's it's obviously like bad

732
00:50:33,280 --> 00:50:40,720
and stuff but i think it's hilarious i i think this is very funny um just play

733
00:50:38,880 --> 00:50:43,839
pub g for one hour and apparently you don't even have to if you just launch

734
00:50:42,319 --> 00:50:49,920
the game at all it just that's what happens yeah when you launch when you launch it and the or restore code is and

735
00:50:48,160 --> 00:50:55,760
you can just type that in i think it's i think it's funny um

736
00:50:53,359 --> 00:50:59,760
it's it's i mean i'm not condoning it it's not a good thing all that kind of

737
00:50:57,680 --> 00:51:03,520
stuff but i just i think it's hilarious i was like kind of hoping it was going

738
00:51:01,359 --> 00:51:08,880
to happen to me just because i'd be like well i guess i gotta play

739
00:51:05,839 --> 00:51:08,880
pubg right honey

740
00:51:09,280 --> 00:51:14,000
luke it's date night ignore that code

741
00:51:12,400 --> 00:51:19,520
i have to say that i have to save the pictures although all the family pictures are all

742
00:51:16,720 --> 00:51:24,960
super important yes family pictures

743
00:51:21,680 --> 00:51:24,960
my family videos

744
00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:31,680
my family vr videos yes of course

745
00:51:29,200 --> 00:51:37,200
so apparently warranty sticker stickers that say if you remove the sticker

746
00:51:33,440 --> 00:51:38,480
you're going to your buoyancy is ward

747
00:51:37,200 --> 00:51:43,599
you know what i'm talking about this was posted by steve uh grabowski on the

748
00:51:40,880 --> 00:51:45,440
forum and the previous topic was posted by

749
00:51:45,440 --> 00:51:50,960
no one hey grabowski thanks for the topic yes

750
00:51:49,040 --> 00:51:55,839
warranty void if removed that sticker apparently is and illegal so

751
00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:58,960
the ftc is cracking down they've sent

752
00:51:57,200 --> 00:52:02,079
letters to six major companies they haven't said who these companies are but

753
00:52:00,240 --> 00:52:06,160
they're rigged yeah and they're in the sectors of

754
00:52:03,440 --> 00:52:09,280
their car manufacturers of cars they are

755
00:52:07,280 --> 00:52:12,640
did i even write it down video yeah here we go automobiles cellular devices and

756
00:52:11,119 --> 00:52:16,839
video game systems uh makers like i'm pretty sure they're

757
00:52:14,240 --> 00:52:19,839
big companies like so yeah yeah so

758
00:52:18,400 --> 00:52:23,359
they've sent warning letters to these companies writing that statements that

759
00:52:21,920 --> 00:52:28,559
consumers must use specified parts or service providers

760
00:52:26,400 --> 00:52:31,839
to keep their warranties is actually illegal and it has been

761
00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:35,200
since 1975. and we've kind of always sort of known

762
00:52:34,319 --> 00:52:43,839
this to be completely honest okay okay um but it's been so ah okay

763
00:52:41,040 --> 00:52:48,880
maybe i shouldn't say we have but like a lot of people have been on this side and

764
00:52:46,240 --> 00:52:52,240
kind of known this for a long time but that being said because there hasn't

765
00:52:50,400 --> 00:52:55,680
been a big public statement that's super easy to point out like this there's you

766
00:52:54,079 --> 00:53:00,400
can point at like really old laws and whatever but most companies just act on

767
00:52:58,559 --> 00:53:04,240
the idea that it that it is enforceable so we'll make it

768
00:53:02,880 --> 00:53:10,319
a nightmare to actually get your stuff repaired to the point where it's not worth it uh i

769
00:53:08,000 --> 00:53:13,280
think even if even if the case was that like

770
00:53:11,760 --> 00:53:17,119
you know i'm gonna take the sticker off and there's nothing the company can do

771
00:53:14,880 --> 00:53:20,480
and they're gonna have to uh honor the warranty anyway

772
00:53:18,960 --> 00:53:24,800
just the fact that they have a sticker on there and are deterring a large part

773
00:53:22,559 --> 00:53:28,559
of the population even that is getting cracked down on right which is good

774
00:53:26,559 --> 00:53:32,960
because that sticker like you're right deters a huge percentage of population

775
00:53:30,559 --> 00:53:37,119
basically almost everyone and then uh even if it doesn't like i love breaking

776
00:53:35,119 --> 00:53:41,119
those stickers uh if i did want a warranty repair for something that i

777
00:53:38,559 --> 00:53:44,720
broke the sticker on uh it would be a nightmare and probably not worth my time

778
00:53:43,520 --> 00:53:50,000
and it would probably never end up happening and to get it fixed i'd probably have to take them to court

779
00:53:47,839 --> 00:53:54,559
which is not going to be worth it so this being enacted is awesome i love it

780
00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:59,920
it's great this is good one quote that i like here is from thomas b paul acting

781
00:53:57,200 --> 00:54:04,160
director of the ftt ftc's bureau of consumer protection he said proficient

782
00:54:02,240 --> 00:54:08,319
provisions that tie warranty coverage to the use of particular products or

783
00:54:05,520 --> 00:54:12,480
services harm both consumers who pay more for them as well as the small

784
00:54:10,480 --> 00:54:16,480
businesses who offer competing products and services

785
00:54:14,400 --> 00:54:20,559
you know like if there's a say a mac store that's not max certified but the

786
00:54:18,800 --> 00:54:22,880
people that are yeah they know how to fix them

787
00:54:21,839 --> 00:54:26,720
those people should be able to start businesses and fix up these computers yeah

788
00:54:25,440 --> 00:54:30,720
i completely agree they're right to repair you know let's not waste as much

789
00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:37,359
stuff sounds good to me homebod

790
00:54:35,440 --> 00:54:42,000
homepod no i mean like that's dude no i know let's do it i'm down

791
00:54:39,520 --> 00:54:45,680
uh this is this is interesting apple hasn't what's the

792
00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:49,920
last thing that apple released that was a new product

793
00:54:47,920 --> 00:54:54,640
um airpods okay yeah no you got me immediately well

794
00:54:52,720 --> 00:54:58,559
that goes out the window um i was thinking like they're they're watched it

795
00:54:56,480 --> 00:55:01,680
hasn't done very well their homepod now hasn't done very well but you're right

796
00:54:59,839 --> 00:55:04,800
airpods have done great but they're okay they are well headphones the watch

797
00:55:03,359 --> 00:55:07,040
game's steamed has

798
00:55:07,760 --> 00:55:13,680
everyone knows it's the best smart watch out there i mean it's not safe okay but do people care about yeah exactly do

799
00:55:12,160 --> 00:55:17,280
people care about smart watches no no the category is is still yeah pretty

800
00:55:16,079 --> 00:55:20,960
niche so here's the story with the home pods

801
00:55:19,200 --> 00:55:25,280
um when it was when the pre-orders went out

802
00:55:23,599 --> 00:55:30,720
that weekend the the sales of like the pre-orders

803
00:55:27,839 --> 00:55:36,000
there for the home pod accounted for 73 of all smart speaker sales that weekend

804
00:55:33,119 --> 00:55:38,880
and for the first month i believe it was ten percent

805
00:55:37,359 --> 00:55:42,079
of the market basically the market share of homepod

806
00:55:40,559 --> 00:55:47,440
relative to other smart speakers like the amazon echo and google home is abysmal

807
00:55:46,240 --> 00:55:51,119
and shrinking had a depressing rate

808
00:55:51,440 --> 00:55:58,079
if at first it looked like the homepod might be a hit pre-orders were strong in the last week of january it grabbed

809
00:55:55,760 --> 00:56:02,720
about a third of the us smart smart speaker market in unit sales but by the

810
00:56:00,480 --> 00:56:08,640
time homepod arrived in stores sales were tanking during the first 10 weeks

811
00:56:05,440 --> 00:56:10,559
they had 10 of the smart speaker market

812
00:56:08,640 --> 00:56:13,440
but three weeks after launch sales slipped to about four percent

813
00:56:12,720 --> 00:56:19,359
that it didn't help that they missed the entire holiday season and that when they

814
00:56:16,880 --> 00:56:22,799
did ship they were missing two critical uh features that they're gonna have to

815
00:56:20,480 --> 00:56:25,440
wait for apple airplay two uh before they have which is gonna be like july or

816
00:56:24,400 --> 00:56:29,680
something all that not withstanding uh the end

817
00:56:27,520 --> 00:56:34,240
result here is that apple has actually slashed the quantity that they're

818
00:56:31,839 --> 00:56:39,760
ordering from their suppliers now from 500 000 units to 200 000 units

819
00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:43,760
and the people who are working like anecdotally i guess the yeah employees

820
00:56:42,000 --> 00:56:48,559
at apple stores are saying that like yeah we sell like 10 of these a day like

821
00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:52,880
they're not really flying off the shelf which is interesting because at

822
00:56:50,880 --> 00:56:56,160
quite a few stores 10 a day would be pretty good so i don't know what yeah

823
00:56:54,559 --> 00:56:59,119
who said that because if that was at pacific center like in vancouver it's

824
00:56:58,319 --> 00:57:05,200
like damn yeah they sell like 10 iphones a day yeah yeah yeah exactly but

825
00:57:03,520 --> 00:57:09,440
yeah and like yeah there's a little apple section of

826
00:57:06,960 --> 00:57:13,119
the local best pie and like if they sold 10 home hots a day they'd

827
00:57:23,760 --> 00:57:30,319
so it really like i don't know if they have 10 customers a day at that apple

828
00:57:27,760 --> 00:57:34,079
thing they're stoked so like it depends on the scale um

829
00:57:32,559 --> 00:57:38,319
of where you're dealing with but essentially they're not selling very

830
00:57:35,760 --> 00:57:41,119
well so there's a rumor here i believe it's just a rumor

831
00:57:39,760 --> 00:57:44,400
i mean it's definitely just a rumor i just don't know how how like

832
00:57:42,799 --> 00:57:49,599
authoritative that rumor is but yeah people are saying that apple could be

833
00:57:46,160 --> 00:57:51,760
considering making a smaller homepod

834
00:57:49,599 --> 00:57:55,520
i guess it would be cheaper because i mean it's a pretty competitive

835
00:57:54,480 --> 00:58:00,799
market yeah this isn't a bluetooth speaker but

836
00:57:58,240 --> 00:58:05,200
bluetooth speakers are totally uh totally commodity by now and the thing

837
00:58:03,599 --> 00:58:09,680
with smart speakers is apple's the only one that's not decoupled from their own

838
00:58:07,359 --> 00:58:13,200
proprietary device like you can get sonos to have or you will be soon

839
00:58:11,440 --> 00:58:16,240
someone else to have google assistant in them yeah you can get

840
00:58:14,720 --> 00:58:20,400
someone to have alexa in them there's some devices that have amazon

841
00:58:18,240 --> 00:58:23,760
alexa as well as google assistant in them oh i actually didn't know uh sonos

842
00:58:22,559 --> 00:58:27,440
is going to be like that soon and i believe there's a company that

843
00:58:26,000 --> 00:58:32,319
i think it's called the wand and it's on its way here that does that how cool is

844
00:58:29,359 --> 00:58:37,040
that to address alexa and then address i said it to dress her and then address

845
00:58:34,720 --> 00:58:41,359
google home like for whatever you want like that's awesome anyway um here's a

846
00:58:39,520 --> 00:58:46,079
few reasons why i don't think it's true that apple is making a smaller homepod

847
00:58:44,160 --> 00:58:49,119
and maybe i'll be wrong but i don't think it makes very much sense because

848
00:58:47,359 --> 00:58:52,720
when you make a speaker that's cheaper like if you think about the echo and the

849
00:58:51,119 --> 00:58:56,480
echo dot everything with the google home and the google home mini the thing that

850
00:58:54,960 --> 00:58:59,760
makes it cheaper and smaller is that they've compromised on sound quality

851
00:58:58,720 --> 00:59:05,200
like the google home mini doesn't have the speakers that the bigger one does

852
00:59:03,040 --> 00:59:09,359
but with the homepod that's the only thing that the homepod does well is the

853
00:59:08,000 --> 00:59:14,079
sound quality so if they got rid of the sound quality all you'd have left is all

854
00:59:12,079 --> 00:59:18,160
the reasons why homepod isn't doing well you'd have a crappy assistant that

855
00:59:15,599 --> 00:59:23,520
doesn't do that much stuff yeah so why would you buy that you

856
00:59:20,000 --> 00:59:23,520
wouldn't so it doesn't make any sense

857
00:59:23,599 --> 00:59:29,359
i i think if they are doing that

858
00:59:27,040 --> 00:59:32,799
uh i think it would speak to the like post

859
00:59:30,799 --> 00:59:35,359
steve jobs apple and like i don't know if they are doing

860
00:59:34,160 --> 00:59:42,240
that and if they're not i think that would make more sense so i'm not saying this is necessarily what's happening but

861
00:59:39,520 --> 00:59:46,559
old apple with steve jobs not old old apple without him or older apple with

862
00:59:44,079 --> 00:59:50,400
him i mean like the the like third one uh not the fourth one that we're

863
00:59:47,839 --> 00:59:55,440
currently in um they would have demanded

864
00:59:52,799 --> 00:59:59,599
no this is the right way to do it if they make something they would have been

865
00:59:57,119 --> 01:00:02,799
like no this is what people should have and people will learn that we're right

866
01:00:00,880 --> 01:00:06,640
eventually or whatever and everything that they would

867
01:00:04,480 --> 01:00:10,640
make would make tons of money and make sense and even if it didn't sell a huge

868
01:00:08,640 --> 01:00:15,200
amount the first time they made it they would just make another one which is a

869
01:00:12,400 --> 01:00:18,799
linear improvement as well from there i think you can categorize that by arrows

870
01:00:17,359 --> 01:00:23,599
and attribute to steve jobs but i think a lot of it is more attributed to just

871
01:00:20,880 --> 01:00:27,280
the maturation of the that particular market category and now

872
01:00:26,160 --> 01:00:31,920
there's lots of different iphones because the smartphone market is just

873
01:00:29,520 --> 01:00:35,760
way more mature in terms of speakers though like their their market strategy

874
01:00:33,680 --> 01:00:40,160
now is like we're a hardware company whose principal product the smartphone

875
01:00:38,240 --> 01:00:43,839
is under attack at all sides and being commoditized so what we're going to do

876
01:00:41,680 --> 01:00:47,920
instead because we can't get more iphone customers is we're just going to get

877
01:00:45,839 --> 01:00:51,760
more money from our existing customers through all these

878
01:00:49,280 --> 01:00:55,680
kind of uh ancillary products like airpods and the homepod so

879
01:00:54,640 --> 01:01:01,040
we're going to make a speaker that's really good and we're going to get another 350 from each of our existing

880
01:00:59,200 --> 01:01:04,079
customers that's wicked i don't think they're going to compromise on that i

881
01:01:02,319 --> 01:01:08,240
don't think they're going to say you know what instead of getting 350

882
01:01:06,240 --> 01:01:12,319
from our customers we're going to get 150 with this like weak ass homepod yeah

883
01:01:11,359 --> 01:01:18,480
because then who's going to get the expensive one it makes a lot more sense to me for them

884
01:01:16,160 --> 01:01:22,640
to spend their resources on making the home pod that already exists more

885
01:01:20,400 --> 01:01:26,559
attractive why don't they just make it you know focus on the ecosystem

886
01:01:24,400 --> 01:01:29,920
focus on the the uh integration with more smart home stuff makes siri better

887
01:01:28,480 --> 01:01:34,240
make siri better if you can at this point yeah and that's gonna affect all

888
01:01:32,000 --> 01:01:38,400
your other products as well i think focusing on the ecosystem for them is

889
01:01:37,040 --> 01:01:44,079
is what they're gonna do it's that's consistent with their strategy that they're using today i think this rumor

890
01:01:41,119 --> 01:01:49,200
is bunk i think the first person to make a

891
01:01:46,640 --> 01:01:53,920
very personalized assistant is gonna start winning me over pretty fast

892
01:01:51,440 --> 01:01:57,280
when it's like actual conversational oh yeah that would when it's scarlet

893
01:01:55,920 --> 01:02:00,799
like sup like you mean from is that is that

894
01:01:58,960 --> 01:02:03,920
that's heard her yeah yeah okay have you seen uh why him

895
01:02:04,160 --> 01:02:09,839
uh why him yeah yeah with that it's a james franco movie no i haven't yeah

896
01:02:08,559 --> 01:02:13,280
yeah there's a uh there's a virtual assistant in that movie that's totally

897
01:02:11,599 --> 01:02:18,000
totally colloquial like it fights with you and stuff yeah perfect yeah

898
01:02:15,520 --> 01:02:22,000
like i i'm careful no seriously though like i

899
01:02:18,880 --> 01:02:24,000
i want it to be like you're late

900
01:02:22,000 --> 01:02:28,000
wake up yeah yeah then when i'm like no i want to get up

901
01:02:26,400 --> 01:02:31,599
and like because it gets used to the fact that i have a hard time waking up so it becomes a little bit more

902
01:02:30,079 --> 01:02:34,640
aggressive so it tries to get me up like i i want one that learns who i am i

903
01:02:33,440 --> 01:02:38,880
would honestly mostly prefer that it was local and

904
01:02:37,119 --> 01:02:42,559
didn't have to call back to outside servers and would just use my own stuff

905
01:02:40,640 --> 01:02:46,160
so if someone makes one of those i'll spend exorbitant amounts of money

906
01:02:44,319 --> 01:02:53,040
and i'll make that work if it's like good uh but they won't so that's okay um

907
01:02:49,760 --> 01:02:54,960
but yeah well that'll happen eventually

908
01:02:53,040 --> 01:03:00,640
come on scotty i mean if we're talking like super long term but yeah what do

909
01:02:57,839 --> 01:03:03,520
you mean this isn't this is 10 years 10 years until you have a local one

910
01:03:02,160 --> 01:03:08,799
that's actually as good as the other ones i'm talking yeah i'm talking like okay

911
01:03:07,040 --> 01:03:12,640
conversational will definitely happen yeah and i'm but knowing about you and

912
01:03:11,280 --> 01:03:18,559
dealing with you the only data they need for that is data

913
01:03:15,039 --> 01:03:20,960
from you so why wouldn't that be local

914
01:03:18,559 --> 01:03:24,400
because they want all of it though i got confused for a second but it's

915
01:03:22,240 --> 01:03:29,760
because they want all of that data so they can train the rest of their

916
01:03:26,559 --> 01:03:33,359
their devices and stuff and so they can

917
01:03:29,760 --> 01:03:33,359
take things from it for the most point

918
01:03:33,440 --> 01:03:38,640
but yeah because they want that data ooh there's another like just get let's get

919
01:03:36,880 --> 01:03:42,160
one more in here okay uh speaking of google basically

920
01:03:40,079 --> 01:03:45,680
there's some leaks of where the heck did i put this

921
01:03:44,400 --> 01:03:50,480
there's a new gmail coming in the next couple weeks and it has some cool new features

922
01:03:48,720 --> 01:03:55,599
yeah someone data mining is profitable basically yeah this looks awesome uh not only does

923
01:03:53,599 --> 01:03:58,400
it aesthetically looks kind of cool or more Android

924
01:03:56,799 --> 01:04:02,160
but it has this new feature of like confidential

925
01:04:00,000 --> 01:04:06,799
email so there's like a little lock icon you can hit and when you hit that

926
01:04:04,720 --> 01:04:10,799
lock icon your email gets all these new properties such as

927
01:04:08,640 --> 01:04:13,839
the recipient can no longer forward that email they can't download it they can't

928
01:04:12,880 --> 01:04:19,680
print it obviously they can take a screenshot because you can take a screenshot or

929
01:04:17,359 --> 01:04:23,119
even if you somehow block that because of their native os they could just take

930
01:04:21,440 --> 01:04:28,319
another thing and take a picture yeah sure sure for sure you'll never get past

931
01:04:24,720 --> 01:04:30,240
that um it disables copy and paste

932
01:04:28,319 --> 01:04:34,480
and it lets you make it explode so you can make the email itself expire after

933
01:04:32,799 --> 01:04:40,640
like a week or a month or a year or multiple years and when that happens

934
01:04:38,880 --> 01:04:43,680
so there are other services that have these kind of

935
01:04:42,240 --> 01:04:48,559
properties already the notably is protonmail

936
01:04:45,359 --> 01:04:50,720
if a proton mail user sends an email

937
01:04:48,559 --> 01:04:54,960
or a message to another proton mail user and it's exploding message when it

938
01:04:52,720 --> 01:04:59,440
explodes it just disappears from both of our boxes it's like just gone the way it

939
01:04:57,760 --> 01:05:03,440
works or is probably gonna work with the new google one is

940
01:05:01,760 --> 01:05:06,160
if you're the recipient you're gonna get an email looks like a normal email

941
01:05:04,960 --> 01:05:10,559
you're gonna open that email and it's gonna have a link to the confidential

942
01:05:08,079 --> 01:05:12,880
email so when it expires i think it's just that link that expires and the

943
01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:18,000
email like line item will still be in your inbox when you click that link you're

944
01:05:16,880 --> 01:05:22,559
gonna have to enter your google credentials again which is pretty sweet because then if

945
01:05:21,039 --> 01:05:26,240
someone stole your laptop and just had access to your email because you left it

946
01:05:24,240 --> 01:05:31,280
open they still wouldn't have access to that that confidential email and you can also

947
01:05:29,440 --> 01:05:34,319
stipulate that they need to enter like a two-factor thing like a sms

948
01:05:33,359 --> 01:05:39,440
when when they get that email too

949
01:05:36,960 --> 01:05:43,039
just increases security someone steals your device and figures out your pattern

950
01:05:41,280 --> 01:05:46,799
or your code or whatever and can get into it like we were talking earlier

951
01:05:44,640 --> 01:05:51,359
like my passwords would still be locked but emails auto login so if all my

952
01:05:49,359 --> 01:05:55,440
emails had this thing or all the important ones had this thing

953
01:05:53,280 --> 01:05:58,720
uh that would add a lot of security and you can make it so that the expiration

954
01:05:57,119 --> 01:06:02,720
date like you're saying it explodes you can make so the expiration date is like multiple years

955
01:06:01,839 --> 01:06:07,440
so if it's something that that person's gonna have to go back to it multiple

956
01:06:05,520 --> 01:06:10,559
times yeah well you could make it so that the expiration date is like way way

957
01:06:09,440 --> 01:06:15,680
down the line uh it also says etc so i

958
01:06:13,280 --> 01:06:19,280
could see a potential situation where it just doesn't ever explode but it has all

959
01:06:17,599 --> 01:06:24,720
the other security features like you have to go through that link you have to re-log in yeah all that kind of stuff so

960
01:06:22,640 --> 01:06:28,960
you can do it you could do it for just high security emails in general which is

961
01:06:26,799 --> 01:06:32,480
really cool um it doesn't just have to be stuff that is gonna delete if you're

962
01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:35,680
an accountant you could tell your clients like hey

963
01:06:34,400 --> 01:06:39,920
send me your your stuff just make it explode in seven

964
01:06:38,000 --> 01:06:43,200
years because you i don't need it legally after that time and i don't want

965
01:06:41,599 --> 01:06:46,960
to be holding your data in my storage sure yeah i mean it wouldn't be theirs anyway

966
01:06:45,520 --> 01:06:50,960
but yeah whatever i think that would be cool it's friday night

967
01:06:49,599 --> 01:06:55,920
