WEBVTT

00:00:01.120 --> 00:00:06.799
okay here we go we are live this is uh

00:00:04.160 --> 00:00:10.800
between two ferns uh the lioness tech tips edition i have laser james with me

00:00:08.880 --> 00:00:15.040
here today and we're gonna talk about a whole bunch of different privacy news

00:00:12.719 --> 00:00:21.680
including the whole facebook thing with mark the zuck zuckerberg um AMD navi GPU

00:00:19.119 --> 00:00:25.920
being potentially amazing or not nothing to do with privacy no and other

00:00:23.439 --> 00:00:31.279
non-privacy news yes there could be a new successor to the chromecast and

00:00:28.880 --> 00:00:37.040
competitor to amazon firestick i'm actually stoked on this oh stoked okay

00:00:34.239 --> 00:00:41.760
um and and mostly other privacy stuff but also the ftc says

00:00:39.840 --> 00:00:46.160
warranty void stickers like warranty voided for move stickers are bs

00:00:44.719 --> 00:00:50.079
which is awesome that makes me really happy but stay tuned to see that and

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

00:00:51.440 --> 00:00:56.719
the intro oh no it wasn't ready Colton

00:00:55.360 --> 00:01:02.640
oh spoiler alert

00:00:59.039 --> 00:01:02.640
so the answer that question was no

00:01:04.720 --> 00:01:07.760
and we're dead

00:01:08.560 --> 00:01:11.560
okay

00:01:12.479 --> 00:01:19.119
be quiet! which you already saw i think synergy 2 and

00:01:17.400 --> 00:01:22.640
squarespace awesome you're going to put subscribe to

00:01:20.560 --> 00:01:26.400
the channel it works next time and go like that there we go

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

00:01:30.320 --> 00:01:34.799
pretty close to the same area but i can't tell you why

00:01:33.600 --> 00:01:39.200
things have obviously changed or for how long or if

00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:43.600
they'll go back or when they'll go back or any of that detail so

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

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

00:01:50.799 --> 00:01:55.439
i'm gonna be in office way more from now on i made it in one

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

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

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

00:02:05.280 --> 00:02:10.239
i got back on sunday pax was good um

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

00:02:12.480 --> 00:02:18.400
back when i first started working here um i asked lions my first time off

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

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

00:02:24.560 --> 00:02:29.920
then immediately the next year he was like

00:02:28.480 --> 00:02:33.200
you're gonna work it just at pax and i was like okay well

00:02:31.680 --> 00:02:36.879
that sounds like a pretty okay compromise so i started making videos at

00:02:35.280 --> 00:02:41.440
pax about computer hardware now in retrospect

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

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

00:02:48.319 --> 00:02:54.640
probably okay but there used to be an abundance of new

00:02:52.879 --> 00:02:57.920
interesting stuff at pounds usually peripherals we get a lot of keyboards we

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

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

00:03:02.879 --> 00:03:08.640
something but there was always a lot of technology videos to make sure that

00:03:06.640 --> 00:03:12.800
slowly started dwindling over the years the amount of potential technology

00:03:10.400 --> 00:03:16.840
videos that pax slowly started reducing constantly over time but here's my

00:03:14.080 --> 00:03:20.879
question yes so do you prefer to go as luke or as

00:03:19.680 --> 00:03:27.440
luke from Linus media group i i can't

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

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

00:03:34.239 --> 00:03:39.840
so you were working there but you weren't like super famous

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

00:03:42.480 --> 00:03:48.400
was pretty good it was funny because my dad always does this so okay

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

00:03:52.000 --> 00:03:57.360
days i was conceived at the Corsair

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

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

00:04:04.159 --> 00:04:09.680
we went from when i was like really young uh and the first year that any

00:04:08.159 --> 00:04:13.280
amount of people knew me at all which was a very very small amount of people

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

00:04:15.040 --> 00:04:21.759
to this packs um that year my dad would like look around

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

00:04:23.919 --> 00:04:27.479
get them to come over

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

00:04:35.280 --> 00:04:42.479
people um i think the reason why i would have probably preferred the old one was

00:04:39.759 --> 00:04:45.280
because i liked pax more back in the day but that's not actually

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

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

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

00:04:56.240 --> 00:05:02.160
show overall is just it's much bigger now and when you become

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

00:05:05.360 --> 00:05:11.360
there's more rules now like back in the day a booth would have

00:05:09.120 --> 00:05:14.400
like a giveaway and everyone would swarm it and they'd like throw stuff out and

00:05:12.960 --> 00:05:17.520
it was crazy no you're not allowed throwing things because probably someone

00:05:16.240 --> 00:05:21.919
got hurt which has to ruin the fun and everything

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

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

00:05:28.400 --> 00:05:33.360
event i love going i hope ltx never suffers from that remember how much

00:05:31.680 --> 00:05:37.360
stuff we threw last year we exactly almost got murked

00:05:35.440 --> 00:05:40.639
it was like serious it was serious like looking at the size of your eyes biting

00:05:39.039 --> 00:05:44.240
your finger like that like that was actually too bad

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

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

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

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

00:05:58.639 --> 00:06:03.440
some definite problems like the main stage was kind of under produced and

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

00:06:05.039 --> 00:06:08.479
wore a took and that really bothered me

00:06:08.880 --> 00:06:15.520
personally i love that that's like you're like the main stage

00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:20.160
is an issue the sound is big issue Linus wore clothing that i didn't appreciate

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

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

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

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

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

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

00:06:46.880 --> 00:06:52.240
can do bank shots and try to damage it more by getting some kind of angle

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

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

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

00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:07.199
completely laterally ready

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

00:07:12.240 --> 00:07:17.840
shots like that yeah probably anyways we should probably talk about

00:07:15.599 --> 00:07:22.080
actual news um i think we already introduced a bunch of topics but we can

00:07:19.440 --> 00:07:26.400
start with probably uh the most yeah

00:07:23.759 --> 00:07:31.840
expected topic of the week uh is that we learned this week that zuckerberg drinks

00:07:28.639 --> 00:07:31.840
water like this

00:07:32.960 --> 00:07:37.360
he's been working on this it's actually pretty good at this point

00:07:40.479 --> 00:07:47.199
yeah yeah then you gotta do the smile meter thing

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

00:07:50.000 --> 00:07:52.319
tiny

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

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

00:08:00.800 --> 00:08:06.960
privacy settings despite uproar so this has been a pretty interesting wait a

00:08:04.720 --> 00:08:12.160
second who posted that in the forum uh shorty 88 junior

00:08:09.440 --> 00:08:16.720
good job always forget we do thank you very much i appreciate it um yeah so

00:08:15.280 --> 00:08:19.840
people aren't really leaving people aren't changing their privacy settings

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

00:08:23.360 --> 00:08:29.599
uproar well actually i think it kind of speaks

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

00:08:31.840 --> 00:08:39.360
what you call that the inspection of

00:08:35.680 --> 00:08:41.760
zuckerberg a lot of it was like um

00:08:39.360 --> 00:08:45.279
he keeps defaulting to be like okay we do tell them everything our terms of

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

00:08:47.120 --> 00:08:54.000
we also have these these little um dialog boxes that are the top your news

00:08:51.839 --> 00:08:57.040
feed that tell you like hey in plain english

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

00:08:59.040 --> 00:09:04.880
transparent what they're doing it's just no one cares though

00:09:03.040 --> 00:09:09.440
no one cares i like by and large no one cares so i

00:09:07.760 --> 00:09:13.600
think a surprisingly low amount of people actually care about their privacy

00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:17.680
there is like and i bet you a a abnormally high percentage of the

00:09:15.920 --> 00:09:21.200
audience here and i think an abnormally high percentage of tech people in

00:09:19.120 --> 00:09:24.720
general because uh i think those people actually understand better what's

00:09:23.519 --> 00:09:30.720
happening when they're putting their privacy out there um i i think the

00:09:28.160 --> 00:09:35.200
average person sees it as like oh some mega corporation knows that i like uh

00:09:33.600 --> 00:09:38.800
thong sandals yeah they've got nothing to hide maybe they'll sell me a few

00:09:36.800 --> 00:09:42.160
thong sandals and they don't understand that like it's going further than that

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

00:09:44.399 --> 00:09:49.279
necessarily know well they don't sell the data well it

00:09:47.839 --> 00:09:54.959
gets given away improperly yeah well it still does yeah

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

00:09:57.440 --> 00:10:02.880
of platforms get hacked every single year and people's data gets pulled out

00:10:01.120 --> 00:10:06.320
of that not saying that happened to facebook but it happens to a huge amount

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

00:10:08.959 --> 00:10:13.440
that's not specifically facebook data no i'm i'm saying

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

00:10:16.160 --> 00:10:22.800
like at all correct um but there has been huge companies that have had leaks

00:10:19.920 --> 00:10:25.920
like that and and those leaks could could make your facebook vulnerable if

00:10:24.480 --> 00:10:30.240
you're using the same password across lots of sites so what normally happens

00:10:27.519 --> 00:10:35.200
is like linkedin got hacked so the dark webs has your password for linkedin that

00:10:33.600 --> 00:10:38.880
gets bought by someone else who takes that password and tries it in a bunch of

00:10:36.959 --> 00:10:41.760
other sites like your email your bank facebook and if you're the type of

00:10:40.720 --> 00:10:45.279
person that has the same password everything you might be compromised on lots of

00:10:44.079 --> 00:10:50.880
sites that never actually got hacked themselves

00:10:47.200 --> 00:10:52.240
yeah um it's it's and like

00:10:50.880 --> 00:10:56.000
what i was more getting to is just the idea that people don't understand how

00:10:54.079 --> 00:10:59.440
their data can spread um and like not just on facebook i mean

00:10:58.079 --> 00:11:03.360
in terms of using the internet as a whole non-tech people don't necessarily

00:11:01.360 --> 00:11:05.920
understand how like putting their data in some place or

00:11:04.720 --> 00:11:09.920
putting their credit card information in some place can result in it getting to

00:11:07.920 --> 00:11:12.320
other places um but

00:11:10.959 --> 00:11:16.079
it kind of leads into the regulation discussion here because there's there's

00:11:14.240 --> 00:11:19.360
yes there's a lot of talk uh about regulating facebook and there's

00:11:18.160 --> 00:11:23.680
kind of three different ways that that could go the first is what facebook

00:11:21.600 --> 00:11:27.279
would probably like which is just to self-regulate

00:11:25.040 --> 00:11:30.160
and that seems more and more basically everybody wants

00:11:28.399 --> 00:11:33.040
it seems more and more that it's like maybe less likely

00:11:31.760 --> 00:11:37.680
to me anyway because like to happen yeah okay yeah yeah

00:11:36.079 --> 00:11:40.240
because there's this awesome article that's been written by zainab what's her

00:11:39.200 --> 00:11:46.079
last name she's that security researcher i'm really bad with

00:11:43.760 --> 00:11:50.079
especially last names so she's awesome she wrote this uh kind of article that

00:11:48.320 --> 00:11:53.440
blew up about like 14 years of facebook's apology tour since the

00:11:52.079 --> 00:11:57.440
beginning like a lot of people gave uh props to

00:11:55.519 --> 00:12:01.120
zuckerberg for kind of taking ownership of what has happened at facebook and

00:11:59.440 --> 00:12:04.160
apologizing for it not like deflecting or saying mistakes were made but the

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

00:12:06.480 --> 00:12:12.240
it's like stop stop letting him screw up so much

00:12:09.839 --> 00:12:15.200
yeah so option one facebook self regulates

00:12:13.440 --> 00:12:17.839
option two they regulate the entire industry

00:12:16.480 --> 00:12:21.120
that would be really stifling to innovation yeah really if

00:12:19.680 --> 00:12:23.760
you've ever worked at a company that was undergoing some kind of like

00:12:22.880 --> 00:12:29.040
um you know we're going to implement compliance for hipaa which is like a a

00:12:27.600 --> 00:12:33.440
health healthcare security thing

00:12:31.600 --> 00:12:35.760
that stuff is intense and drains company resources more than you could ever

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

00:12:39.040 --> 00:12:44.720
there was something like that for the social media industry

00:12:43.200 --> 00:12:49.040
you can basically guarantee yourself that there would be no new upstarts

00:12:47.360 --> 00:12:52.480
like that's hard enough to to make a new social network is hard

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

00:12:55.360 --> 00:13:01.279
it's useful to people if you're going to have this other layer of compliance

00:12:59.120 --> 00:13:06.000
you're basically solidifying facebook's position and all incumbents positions so

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

00:13:07.680 --> 00:13:13.120
challenges um but

00:13:11.120 --> 00:13:16.800
i haven't seen even without this i haven't seen very many successful

00:13:14.639 --> 00:13:20.959
challenges to facebook at all anyways google plus completely failed um and

00:13:19.440 --> 00:13:24.720
anyone that really tries just gets bought and consumed anyways well that's

00:13:22.720 --> 00:13:28.720
what was funny when that one senator was like who's your biggest competitor it's

00:13:27.040 --> 00:13:33.360
like you don't understand network economies because but by virtue of way

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

00:13:36.000 --> 00:13:41.040
take all such a situation where like everyone's on this platform therefore

00:13:39.279 --> 00:13:44.800
everyone's using this platform you can't split them there could never

00:13:42.399 --> 00:13:49.360
be half people here in half there yeah with com completely overlapping

00:13:46.560 --> 00:13:55.440
functions it doesn't work that way option three for regulation would be um

00:13:53.279 --> 00:14:00.000
if facebook itself just has a like dedicated third party or agency

00:13:58.160 --> 00:14:04.399
that only regulates facebook like some kind of steward of the data um

00:14:02.800 --> 00:14:08.800
to me that's like the most likely situation but this one too

00:14:06.720 --> 00:14:12.959
enshrines facebook's current market position because

00:14:10.880 --> 00:14:16.480
if it's the case that facebook has so much data about you and they regulate

00:14:15.440 --> 00:14:22.240
such that that data can never leave facebook

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

00:14:24.800 --> 00:14:29.839
the developers on the facebook platform did in the past and that's how cambridge

00:14:27.920 --> 00:14:32.800
analytica came to get the big data that leaked anyway

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

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

00:14:38.800 --> 00:14:45.440
way so i'm going to make a straw poll here

00:14:43.760 --> 00:14:49.760
which is how should facebook be regulated or not um

00:14:47.839 --> 00:14:55.760
you need four bro yeah it it self expands oh oh oh watch

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

00:14:57.360 --> 00:15:02.000
and then hit enter uh not regulated self-regulated third

00:15:00.959 --> 00:15:07.680
there we go nice congratulations

00:15:06.079 --> 00:15:12.760
but like dedicated like they only regulate facebook

00:15:09.760 --> 00:15:12.760
uh

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

00:15:18.720 --> 00:15:22.720
know like it's this qwerty layout i don't know

00:15:22.880 --> 00:15:29.519
i'm used to divorce i know it's been around since the 1870s but

00:15:27.120 --> 00:15:29.519
whatever

00:15:30.560 --> 00:15:35.600
okay so we have not regulated self-regulated third-party regulations

00:15:33.760 --> 00:15:39.519
specifically for facebook and government-wide spanning regulations are

00:15:37.680 --> 00:15:41.920
going to put a troll on sir no donkey balls

00:15:40.720 --> 00:15:46.000
donkey come on nope last week it was donkey balls

00:15:46.720 --> 00:15:54.320
we've been regulated internally self-regulated

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

00:15:55.759 --> 00:16:03.199
guys think um i kind of have my own opinion but ooh do

00:16:01.360 --> 00:16:07.920
you have a while we wait for that let's fantasize

00:16:04.880 --> 00:16:09.759
about some kind of future epic uh social

00:16:07.920 --> 00:16:12.720
network startup that's all blockchain based where

00:16:10.959 --> 00:16:17.519
every individual's data is completely owned by them is on a blockchain so that

00:16:15.040 --> 00:16:21.279
the entire internet is modular so that you can switch from one social network

00:16:19.519 --> 00:16:24.880
to another and bring your data with you and release to each social network

00:16:23.040 --> 00:16:29.040
exactly what you want that would be the most beneficial to new

00:16:27.600 --> 00:16:32.720
innovation because you could start up your own social network and people could

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

00:16:34.399 --> 00:16:40.240
here's all the people i know and suddenly you'd have like this really

00:16:37.680 --> 00:16:43.199
thick market and strong network effects right away

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

00:16:45.040 --> 00:16:51.199
how that actually works i know that platform is blockchain based but is it

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

00:16:53.279 --> 00:16:59.440
heard is that all the current social like blockchain-based social media

00:16:57.680 --> 00:17:03.680
projects are junk yeah i heard it on a podcast i don't

00:17:01.199 --> 00:17:06.880
actually know i haven't tried it myself pied piper

00:17:06.880 --> 00:17:11.919
i wouldn't put steam in my title sounds

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

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

00:17:18.400 --> 00:17:28.240
check in on this straw poll actually let's see okay wow okay not a meaningful

00:17:23.600 --> 00:17:29.919
split at all really oh donkey

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

00:17:32.559 --> 00:17:36.640
care um or even in our car but they just

00:17:35.760 --> 00:17:40.880
don't know well that's fair

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

00:17:42.400 --> 00:17:48.000
been that's donkey i guess the two together but yeah that's the problem is

00:17:46.480 --> 00:17:52.480
that they're both together so right now oh right i'm not on the screen

00:17:50.240 --> 00:17:56.480
right now we're looking at 25 for third party regulations specifically for

00:17:54.000 --> 00:17:59.039
facebook i'm kind of surprised by that um

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

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

00:18:06.080 --> 00:18:12.720
weight on facebook so that opens the door to more other platforms but then those

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

00:18:16.559 --> 00:18:23.280
they're big yeah take the regulations specifically for facebook and then push it on them

00:18:21.919 --> 00:18:27.200
or like so do you just let people run rampant

00:18:25.360 --> 00:18:30.799
with other people's data at the beginning and then go like

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

00:18:32.320 --> 00:18:37.360
now you have to stop yeah it kind of sounds like you need to

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

00:18:40.960 --> 00:18:47.440
laws plus you also have to consider uh users

00:18:45.679 --> 00:18:51.360
choices right not like because this is happening let's just

00:18:49.440 --> 00:18:55.120
there's a societal shift where people are prioritizing and caring more about

00:18:53.440 --> 00:18:58.320
this kind of thing right so if a new upstart comes knocking on your door

00:18:56.559 --> 00:19:02.559
asking you to become a user you're more likely to ask like well

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

00:19:04.880 --> 00:19:12.559
in that climate then like maybe a light touch regulation is enough

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

00:19:15.280 --> 00:19:22.240
was government-wide spanning regulation which i'm not super surprised was up

00:19:19.760 --> 00:19:27.760
there not regulated i'm honestly pretty surprised that that even got 13 percent

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

00:19:30.240 --> 00:19:35.360
permissions the way they actually want they're just like it's going fine just

00:19:33.360 --> 00:19:39.600
read the tos yeah people who are going to actually

00:19:36.799 --> 00:19:43.120
like manage it properly themselves um which unfortunately isn't everybody

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

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

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

00:19:55.360 --> 00:20:00.960
my mom's actually surprisingly good with some things but she can also somehow

00:19:58.400 --> 00:20:03.600
manage to send emails with her text messaging program without any of us

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

00:20:06.400 --> 00:20:10.880
there's there's people that have a special touch with technology and

00:20:09.600 --> 00:20:14.960
there's people that when they use it it falls apart magically um

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

00:20:16.480 --> 00:20:21.679
anyways i love you um

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

00:20:23.280 --> 00:20:29.039
and there's people that aren't and it varies i took my socks off right

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

00:20:33.360 --> 00:20:40.400
you're having cold feet about this regulation platform idea yeah

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

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

00:20:47.200 --> 00:20:55.360
we're probably done with this topic in general meanwhile AMD nabi gpus yeah

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

00:20:57.440 --> 00:21:04.159
please thank you uh

00:21:00.880 --> 00:21:06.720
let's jump down to AMD navi navi is the

00:21:04.159 --> 00:21:11.120
next generation of architecture from AMD gpus and it is a seven nanometer

00:21:09.120 --> 00:21:15.600
architecture and the rumor these days is that it's not gonna

00:21:13.520 --> 00:21:20.159
it's not gonna be the source of the next wave of enthusiast cards

00:21:18.320 --> 00:21:24.400
it's not going to be the next vega

00:21:21.840 --> 00:21:28.559
in fact it's going to be a what they call the mainstream uh lineup

00:21:26.799 --> 00:21:33.760
which or mainstream tier which right now is the rx 580s those guys also thank you

00:21:30.720 --> 00:21:35.840
ryujin 2013 on the forums

00:21:33.760 --> 00:21:41.280
yeah so what they're saying is that when

00:21:37.760 --> 00:21:43.120
these cards launch in 2019

00:21:41.280 --> 00:21:48.000
they're gonna have a comparable performance to a gtx 1080

00:21:45.760 --> 00:21:53.679
which came out in the end of may basically june 2016

00:21:50.559 --> 00:21:55.280
but it'll cost about 250 bucks

00:21:53.679 --> 00:22:00.000
which is nice well because buying a 1080 right now is

00:21:57.039 --> 00:22:04.240
more than that msrp 250 bucks who knows what it'll actually cost fair

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

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

00:22:10.240 --> 00:22:15.120
it's back baby back again

00:22:15.120 --> 00:22:20.320
oh dear da nana and then with new cards that are high

00:22:18.799 --> 00:22:25.520
performance for lower dollar value it might become more profitable

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

00:22:27.280 --> 00:22:36.080
long time um especially on the AMD side we've seen

00:22:32.400 --> 00:22:37.840
accidental artificial whatever uh uh

00:22:36.080 --> 00:22:42.640
spawned from bitcoin inflation whatever you want on gpus for quite a long time

00:22:40.000 --> 00:22:47.520
even well before it was identified as being a bitcoin mining problem uh we had

00:22:46.000 --> 00:22:51.280
inflation and graphics card prices all the way from back to the launch of these

00:22:49.039 --> 00:22:53.840
cards which was well before mining bitcoin was like super

00:22:52.840 --> 00:22:58.240
trendy well the gtx yes yeah okay yeah

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

00:23:00.159 --> 00:23:04.880
this particular market segment i thought are they doing that like to satisfy

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

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

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

00:23:19.280 --> 00:23:25.679
good like well 250 is a really nice price point for a

00:23:23.120 --> 00:23:30.240
graphics card around 300 bucks is fairly reasonable for a quite a large amount of

00:23:28.320 --> 00:23:34.640
people for a graphics card yeah 250 bucks is pretty good still if if you can

00:23:33.120 --> 00:23:38.320
like pcs aren't going to get here

00:23:36.159 --> 00:23:43.760
realistically but if like at least not in the short term but 300 bucks in like

00:23:41.120 --> 00:23:47.520
2013 was like the golden i remember there was articles about it

00:23:45.280 --> 00:23:50.960
all over the place where like 300 for a relatively high ticket item was really

00:23:49.520 --> 00:23:55.120
good for consumers because a lot of people could gather that much money in a

00:23:52.960 --> 00:23:58.320
reasonable amount of saving time this should be uh comparatively cheaper

00:23:56.960 --> 00:24:03.039
than because with inflation and everything with inflation and it's 250

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

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

00:24:08.799 --> 00:24:14.080
make sense but then i learned that actually

00:24:12.559 --> 00:24:17.919
history is repeating itself here because this is a new

00:24:15.760 --> 00:24:22.559
what they call manufacturing node this is a seven nanometer uh

00:24:20.240 --> 00:24:26.000
part the lithography that is they can't get the yields on all their

00:24:24.320 --> 00:24:30.880
wafers uh at a at a rate

00:24:27.919 --> 00:24:34.480
or a quantity that makes a lot of sense economically for them so

00:24:32.799 --> 00:24:37.679
that was really convoluted let me just say what i actually have written down

00:24:35.919 --> 00:24:43.760
from a manufacturing point of view it is not feasible to produce a large GPU like

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

00:24:46.000 --> 00:24:50.799
seven nanometer early in the nodes life cycle because it's just a new technology

00:24:49.840 --> 00:24:55.520
and they haven't ironed out all the manufacturing kinks yet so once they do

00:24:52.880 --> 00:25:00.159
it's conceivable that in the future maybe in 2021 that they could use the

00:24:58.240 --> 00:25:03.440
seven nanometer lithography to make bigger cards

00:25:01.840 --> 00:25:07.520
yeah makes sense the more you know

00:25:05.679 --> 00:25:11.919
hooray it's it's i don't know this is good uh

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

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

00:25:18.320 --> 00:25:23.840
have a booth there that was weird Intel's had a booth at

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

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

00:25:30.400 --> 00:25:38.080
started dwindling off but okay no Intel no NVIDIA ASUS booth was much smaller

00:25:35.120 --> 00:25:42.159
than normal AMD had a fairly big booth that was poppin the whole event it was

00:25:40.320 --> 00:25:46.480
full there was queues for all the different stuff they had they had vr

00:25:44.240 --> 00:25:49.919
setups but there was vr setups multiple other places on the show that

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

00:25:51.520 --> 00:25:57.520
interesting experience to see that the community has kind of opened up to AMD

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

00:26:01.279 --> 00:26:07.440
underdog that like the underground people were like yeah i'm gonna buy one

00:26:04.799 --> 00:26:10.480
of these even though like you know maybe it doesn't make a ton of

00:26:08.880 --> 00:26:15.760
sense i'm gonna get it anywhere my money is just a donation name yeah basically

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

00:26:17.279 --> 00:26:23.200
cool and it's it's really cool to see them coming back um it was

00:26:21.440 --> 00:26:29.039
a pretty awesome moment to see their booth packed at pax yeah because

00:26:25.840 --> 00:26:32.400
even at pax west which was i guess in

00:26:29.039 --> 00:26:33.679
the very beginning of september 2017

00:26:32.400 --> 00:26:37.360
um the AMD booth was not that packed so

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

00:26:40.480 --> 00:26:47.600
their booth is popping well it helped i guess um and like they

00:26:46.080 --> 00:26:51.520
did a much better job with their booth which in a way

00:26:49.440 --> 00:26:54.960
kind of sort of not really but kind of indirectly maybe there's a lot of

00:26:53.039 --> 00:26:58.480
caveats there i keep drinking water not like zuckerberg he's gonna work continue

00:26:57.440 --> 00:27:02.880
um oh he's got it he's got it

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

00:27:05.120 --> 00:27:12.240
they have the money to flaunt at an event spending way too much money on a

00:27:09.360 --> 00:27:15.840
ridiculously small roi of having a booth as a shareholder that angers me

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

00:27:19.520 --> 00:27:23.840
not showing to that many people and it costs a ludicrous amount of money you're

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

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

00:27:31.360 --> 00:27:38.240
fans and the the roi is hard to describe but it it reaches um and

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

00:27:39.760 --> 00:27:45.520
constant part of the conversation and you're trying to spread that roi beyond

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

00:27:46.880 --> 00:27:52.720
interesting to see that i'm very happy about AMD's fairly recent success and i

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

00:27:54.640 --> 00:28:02.159
performance off a 250 card that breaches people into a way higher

00:28:00.000 --> 00:28:05.679
level of gaming yeah but this is three years after the fact though like a year

00:28:04.480 --> 00:28:10.159
from now you're gonna have a 1080

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

00:28:12.799 --> 00:28:18.559
people start selling mining cards for dirt cheap then it might not matter because you

00:28:17.039 --> 00:28:23.039
might be able to get 1080s for around that price anyways they would just might

00:28:20.240 --> 00:28:29.279
be kind of sketchy um but you're just the most tired car yeah

00:28:25.919 --> 00:28:30.880
or you might just got some games in me

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

00:28:33.679 --> 00:28:40.240
me together um or you might get 1080 tis for that price or whatever else right

00:28:37.679 --> 00:28:44.399
who knows but if mining does stay up there and the price of this does inflate

00:28:42.399 --> 00:28:46.559
that might still even be helpful who knows

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

00:28:49.360 --> 00:28:55.760
people who don't know yeah max's loitering we like have to have the

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

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

00:29:02.000 --> 00:29:07.760
through like a fire rated window i would like to end the show that way actually

00:29:05.840 --> 00:29:12.880
by closing the door yeah i'll crawl under there remove the sound back

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

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

00:29:17.760 --> 00:29:24.640
documentation showed up this is the next topic okay

00:29:21.840 --> 00:29:27.360
a bunch of documentation showed up uh uh at a random

00:29:26.480 --> 00:29:31.200
i mean to to our ears rise anyway people who

00:29:29.919 --> 00:29:36.559
aren't in the know of these things a random seeming manufacturer in china has

00:29:34.080 --> 00:29:43.360
the documentation that describes like specs out this new mysterious google

00:29:39.760 --> 00:29:45.919
branded dongle which is like a 4k

00:29:43.360 --> 00:29:49.520
Android tv dongle as you can see yeah

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

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

00:29:55.520 --> 00:30:02.159
why i care so much i have a chromecast at home okay

00:30:00.159 --> 00:30:06.080
and i also have a google home okay those things work together

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

00:30:09.600 --> 00:30:16.960
and i use that remote and that smart tv to use apps like youtube a lot

00:30:15.039 --> 00:30:20.240
the problem is that google home

00:30:18.240 --> 00:30:26.240
and casting by voice is incompatible with my remote when i

00:30:23.120 --> 00:30:28.720
cast if i'm like google play the latest

00:30:26.240 --> 00:30:33.120
Linus tech tips video on the tv and it plays it

00:30:30.320 --> 00:30:37.440
i can't then grab my remote and hit next video and start scrolling around and

00:30:34.399 --> 00:30:39.200
stuff like that because my smart tvs

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

00:30:40.880 --> 00:30:46.480
voice i basically have two youtube apps on my tv

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

00:30:49.360 --> 00:30:55.520
stick they actually the microphone the excuse me the remote is a microphone

00:30:53.679 --> 00:30:58.960
you can talk into it this remote is the same deal it has a

00:30:56.960 --> 00:31:01.919
dedicated google assistant button on it so this is the remote he's talking about

00:31:00.720 --> 00:31:07.120
by the way and presumably i'm going to be able to say

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

00:31:09.039 --> 00:31:14.559
say you guys got to appreciate that he didn't include the first word yes when

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

00:31:16.159 --> 00:31:20.559
and then i'll be able to just use my remote

00:31:19.200 --> 00:31:24.480
and then back and forth and that is gonna be sick

00:31:22.559 --> 00:31:27.840
that's huge for me hey google play the hipster song with the whistling

00:31:29.520 --> 00:31:34.960
i had to i'm sorry continue hey you don't want to leave

00:31:32.559 --> 00:31:38.240
those alexa play the hipster song with the whistling people out is that going

00:31:36.880 --> 00:31:42.159
to work though because i think that's a fairly specific

00:31:40.320 --> 00:31:47.200
keyword for google play no that that or sorry the key phrase oh

00:31:45.840 --> 00:31:50.480
the hipster song with the whistling because they put that in an ad

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

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

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

00:32:01.440 --> 00:32:09.360
yeah okay it's awesome okay sweet that's cool i'm surprised that works actually

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

00:32:10.720 --> 00:32:17.039
seventh element by vedas get out

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

00:32:18.240 --> 00:32:24.240
saying that it's like basically a shield tv

00:32:21.840 --> 00:32:29.039
but in a small compact dongle but i think it does a little bit

00:32:26.799 --> 00:32:32.880
less and plus the price point those things

00:32:30.880 --> 00:32:36.159
are over 200 bucks oh yeah so this is probably gonna be way cheaper the shield

00:32:34.399 --> 00:32:39.600
will also be able to like cast games to your tv which is like

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

00:32:42.960 --> 00:32:49.039
voice controllable remote and the easiest way to think about it is

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

00:32:52.080 --> 00:32:58.640
google assistant integration and voice remote

00:32:56.080 --> 00:32:58.640
people in chat

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

00:33:03.360 --> 00:33:11.440
much a fire tv stick is let me search the american internets

00:33:08.240 --> 00:33:13.519
yeah where these things exist oh my

00:33:11.440 --> 00:33:13.519
god

00:33:15.519 --> 00:33:21.840
while you do that fire truck no they know it from last

00:33:19.360 --> 00:33:21.840
tech tips

00:33:23.120 --> 00:33:30.640
what did you guys think about the fire pole video good god it's thirty dollars

00:33:27.919 --> 00:33:35.679
fire tv stick with alexa voice from 30 bucks that's really cheap even the 4k

00:33:32.880 --> 00:33:38.880
one is only 50. a 4k chromecast is like 70 usd

00:33:37.519 --> 00:33:43.919
isn't it i don't know hold on let me google some more

00:33:41.039 --> 00:33:43.919
do it do it

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

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

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

00:33:57.840 --> 00:34:04.799
NVIDIA shields for 200. it comes with a gamepad though yeah

00:34:02.480 --> 00:34:07.840
because you can play Android games on it some of them i guess

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

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

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

00:34:22.480 --> 00:34:28.079
while you're looking that up i'm gonna do a little Floatplane moment 70 bucks

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

00:34:30.000 --> 00:34:37.280
Floatplane has awesome stuff on it kyle from bitwit currently has cool cooler is

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

00:34:38.879 --> 00:34:45.599
be a pretty interesting video also he has a 32x9 gaming setup that he wants to

00:34:43.839 --> 00:34:49.599
show off in a different video Linus tech tips has a wearable coast

00:34:48.560 --> 00:34:55.520
house a merged keyboard and mouse

00:34:52.720 --> 00:35:00.000
it is a cause i like it that was by accident but i'm

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

00:35:01.520 --> 00:35:08.560
thing actually is so it's these rings that you wear on your fingers yeah if

00:35:05.839 --> 00:35:11.520
you lay your hand on a table okay it's a mouse

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

00:35:12.880 --> 00:35:18.880
table it's a keyboard and it can know based on like if you

00:35:17.040 --> 00:35:22.800
stretch your finger or whatever it's not

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

00:35:24.480 --> 00:35:30.480
have to learn a bunch of gestures like it's his own language

00:35:27.920 --> 00:35:34.160
like that's a that's n oh that's r

00:35:32.240 --> 00:35:38.720
yeah okay i learned it all can you type properly that way i can

00:35:36.480 --> 00:35:44.480
type how fast uh i can survive

00:35:42.160 --> 00:35:48.480
like probably dial up like i could describe it as okay okay that's cool

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

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

00:35:53.440 --> 00:36:00.720
go any further perfect uh there's also uh the continuation of the apple fiasco

00:35:59.119 --> 00:36:03.599
with the imac pro um

00:36:02.160 --> 00:36:08.480
buying a video card without getting screwed and some other cool stuff like

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

00:36:10.320 --> 00:36:14.880
video because i grew up with these super janky

00:36:13.440 --> 00:36:18.240
weird motherboard setups and i grew up with like my dad's computer where

00:36:16.560 --> 00:36:22.560
basically to build the computer you had to have a whole bunch of add-in cards

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

00:36:24.560 --> 00:36:30.400
onboard nick okay he didn't have on-board lan for Ethernet connection so

00:36:28.400 --> 00:36:34.160
he had to have a nic card in order to have connections i remember when we

00:36:32.079 --> 00:36:38.960
bought our first uh computer my like i remember being in the shop when we were

00:36:35.680 --> 00:36:41.040
buying it and it was like for hours and

00:36:38.960 --> 00:36:44.400
we like bought a sound card yeah like that's just totally integrated didn't

00:36:42.640 --> 00:36:48.720
have audio on board probably yeah so like that i'm 100 certain that that is

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

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

00:36:56.160 --> 00:37:01.040
and honestly the payment system on Floatplane.com works way better so if

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

00:37:04.000 --> 00:37:10.560
right now we will be supporting uh paypal in the future but

00:37:07.599 --> 00:37:10.560
cryptocurrencies

00:37:10.960 --> 00:37:17.680
kitties yeah well you can get a year of flow plane for a single crypto kitty

00:37:15.839 --> 00:37:20.800
what is a cryptokitty what you don't know what cryptokitties is

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

00:37:22.560 --> 00:37:27.839
old is it like a meme it's like a it's like a

00:37:25.920 --> 00:37:32.720
ethereum based game where you trade

00:37:29.920 --> 00:37:32.720
digital kitties

00:37:34.480 --> 00:37:37.839
you just zuckerberg

00:37:39.040 --> 00:37:44.280
are you telling me to zuck off uh i just

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

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

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

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

00:38:10.240 --> 00:38:15.680
become best friends okay that movie was amazing i just have

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

00:38:19.440 --> 00:38:24.640
we might as well synergy

00:38:24.800 --> 00:38:29.839
yes yes correct synergy two synergy is a

00:38:28.079 --> 00:38:33.200
mouse and keyboard sharing software so you can have multiple computers even

00:38:31.839 --> 00:38:36.720
multiple different types of computers like a laptop and a desktop and you

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

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

00:38:42.720 --> 00:38:50.320
use a cause yeah yes i want to make that a thing um and

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

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

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

00:39:00.640 --> 00:39:05.200
been massively simplified uh it doesn't really matter which one you have the

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

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

00:39:15.280 --> 00:39:20.560
just you know not in good in general

00:39:18.720 --> 00:39:24.960
you can even use a raspberry pi now which is pretty nuts

00:39:22.480 --> 00:39:27.599
they fixed issues with reconnecting all the computers after one of them goes to

00:39:26.640 --> 00:39:32.400
sleep they fixed issues where redundant connections were being created between

00:39:30.800 --> 00:39:36.480
machines which would also be not necessarily good things things are great

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

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

00:39:41.119 --> 00:39:46.480
one to the other just by dragging and dropping from one desktop to the other

00:39:44.320 --> 00:39:52.320
one and just really nice seamless stuff like that check out oh i guess seamless

00:39:49.440 --> 00:39:55.440
seamless dot com synergy slash wan five

00:39:53.440 --> 00:40:00.720
use the use the five yeah it's important

00:39:57.440 --> 00:40:03.520
also speaking of kyle's video on

00:40:00.720 --> 00:40:08.160
Floatplane we've got be quiet! they're a sponsor of the show you can

00:40:05.440 --> 00:40:14.160
check out their dirk rock pro 4 and their nadas pro but still pretty cool

00:40:10.800 --> 00:40:17.839
dark rock 4 itself the dark rock 4 and

00:40:14.160 --> 00:40:20.880
dark rock pro 4 CPU coolers uh

00:40:17.839 --> 00:40:24.560
include virtually inaudible silent wings

00:40:20.880 --> 00:40:28.160
135 millimeter pwm fans uh it achieves a

00:40:24.560 --> 00:40:30.560
quiet 21.4 db at maximum fan speed which

00:40:28.160 --> 00:40:34.880
is actually pretty sweet um smells pretty good in there too oh my you know

00:40:32.800 --> 00:40:38.800
okay slight tangent while we're on topic sorry be quiet! but mouse pads smell

00:40:37.119 --> 00:40:42.800
terrible when you first take them out of the box but anyways

00:40:40.640 --> 00:40:46.320
um they they eventually this is pretty bad

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

00:40:47.680 --> 00:40:54.079
was expecting like the smell of fingertips

00:40:50.720 --> 00:40:56.160
but it's not that interesting okay uh it

00:40:54.079 --> 00:41:01.839
supports an additional 120 millimeter fan clips are included in the scope of

00:40:59.040 --> 00:41:05.680
delivery uh there's a brushed aluminum top cover which looks pretty nice it

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

00:41:07.440 --> 00:41:12.880
can replace my face with it now i'm like the man with the apple in

00:41:10.800 --> 00:41:16.960
front of his face anyways moving on uh there's a three-year manufacturer

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

00:41:18.960 --> 00:41:24.720
they're on newegg and other websites but we have links for

00:41:23.599 --> 00:41:28.960
newegg which will be in the video description on youtube

00:41:26.960 --> 00:41:33.839
moving on squarespace i feel like we haven't had a squarespace spot in a

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

00:41:35.440 --> 00:41:40.640
website which you can set up super fast

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

00:41:42.400 --> 00:41:47.760
out at squarespace.comwan it's 12 bucks a month

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

00:41:50.240 --> 00:41:56.000
sense because domain leases are for a year it has responsive design so if you

00:41:54.160 --> 00:42:00.400
go to any device like a watch a cell phone a laptop a big computer monitor

00:41:58.560 --> 00:42:05.359
one of those crazy wide computer monitors all that kind of stuff it will adjust your website to look good on all

00:42:03.520 --> 00:42:08.880
of them it has commerce modules so you can sell stuff through your website

00:42:06.720 --> 00:42:12.400
which is great and everyone can publish an apple news format which is great

00:42:10.880 --> 00:42:16.720
because that format can go into a whole bunch of other formats so you can

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

00:42:23.040 --> 00:42:30.480
again check out squarespace.comwan and use offer code wan to save 10 on your

00:42:27.599 --> 00:42:36.000
first purchase back to the show boom the beginning of the end of passwords yes so

00:42:34.480 --> 00:42:42.319
there could be a future soon where you very

00:42:39.200 --> 00:42:44.000
very seldom enter a password

00:42:42.319 --> 00:42:47.040
which would be dope because passwords suck

00:42:45.440 --> 00:42:53.520
so what happened is there's this there's this new security standard called

00:42:50.160 --> 00:42:56.480
web often like authentication yeah

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

00:42:58.480 --> 00:43:04.480
was like oh it appears more than once oh you didn't account for people saying

00:43:02.640 --> 00:43:09.599
this out loud but okay um web often has won near final approval

00:43:07.040 --> 00:43:14.319
from the world wide web consortium which is the governing body for these kinds of

00:43:11.280 --> 00:43:15.760
standards so what this is is

00:43:14.319 --> 00:43:19.920
on your phone you're unlocking your phone with face id or with your

00:43:17.359 --> 00:43:25.040
fingerprint all the time right but you don't do that when you go to

00:43:22.440 --> 00:43:31.119
facebook.com or basically any other website all recipes for them you enter

00:43:27.760 --> 00:43:33.680
in just a password um setting up a face

00:43:31.119 --> 00:43:37.680
a biometric um a password on all different websites

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

00:43:39.599 --> 00:43:44.400
that technology but then you'd have to like do your all those different finger

00:43:42.880 --> 00:43:50.160
taps on every different finger for every website and that'd be really annoying

00:43:46.319 --> 00:43:51.760
so what this is is it's an API

00:43:50.160 --> 00:43:54.400
an application programming interface that all the different websites

00:43:53.520 --> 00:43:59.839
will will hook into and then you only have to

00:43:56.880 --> 00:44:03.520
set up your biometric passwords once and then the whole web

00:44:02.079 --> 00:44:09.520
can rely on them which is going to be be a name yes so

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

00:44:12.079 --> 00:44:16.880
all of them yes sick

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

00:44:20.000 --> 00:44:27.920
some digging beyond uh just what was found on the forum the forum post by the

00:44:25.040 --> 00:44:32.720
way was posted by matthew valencia thank you very much thank you matt

00:44:30.240 --> 00:44:38.000
you sound italian what valencia that's spanish sounding to

00:44:35.119 --> 00:44:42.960
me i'm really bad at that so you're probably totally right it

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

00:44:44.800 --> 00:44:49.200
could be cool it sounds like it could be a single point of failure it just

00:44:47.920 --> 00:44:53.040
depends on i guess how they exactly

00:44:51.680 --> 00:44:57.760
implement it you can require something

00:44:56.160 --> 00:45:02.480
like a yubikey which i think is actually pretty cool

00:45:00.160 --> 00:45:06.880
so if they if they add power to the user in terms of like oh

00:45:05.280 --> 00:45:11.280
i'm okay with fairly weak authentication and you want

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

00:45:12.480 --> 00:45:19.599
about their accounts that's okay if you have one password for everything and you

00:45:16.240 --> 00:45:22.640
think that's okay that's fine um as long

00:45:19.599 --> 00:45:24.880
as it's in your control to amplify that

00:45:22.640 --> 00:45:28.720
and have more security if you want to go to like

00:45:26.400 --> 00:45:32.880
having two factors still like a yubikey and something else that could be pretty

00:45:30.000 --> 00:45:36.560
cool um well you kind of already have a single point of failure like if someone

00:45:34.880 --> 00:45:40.400
were to get my phone which they would unlock with fingerprint

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

00:45:42.480 --> 00:45:48.800
those autocompletes set up so they kind of have everything anyway see but then

00:45:46.000 --> 00:45:52.480
that's that's uh an in your control thing yes mine doesn't

00:45:50.560 --> 00:45:56.160
if someone got my phone yeah yeah they have access to

00:45:54.160 --> 00:46:00.079
not very much i would have access to my email which is pretty bad

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

00:46:01.599 --> 00:46:08.880
password trove and nothing autocompletes but they would have my email so they

00:46:06.000 --> 00:46:12.720
could probably reset most things um but like yeah i don't know but even if

00:46:11.520 --> 00:46:16.880
even if you're the kind of person who like doesn't care about things um

00:46:15.200 --> 00:46:19.359
wouldn't those like how are they gonna get a hold of your

00:46:18.400 --> 00:46:26.000
of your biometric information isn't that just hashed isn't it totally

00:46:24.000 --> 00:46:30.400
yeah but okay so the there's there's different types of of

00:46:28.560 --> 00:46:35.359
hacking so you could find a vulnerability in the

00:46:33.119 --> 00:46:40.400
system that no longer requires you to use those sure yeah okay right there's

00:46:37.680 --> 00:46:45.119
like things yeah it's and and someone will probably find one of those okay uh

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

00:46:47.280 --> 00:46:53.440
happens with it who knows and having

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

00:46:55.359 --> 00:47:02.319
companies working on making sure that it stays secure could be really awesome and

00:46:59.760 --> 00:47:05.280
could like really lock things down um one thing that's awesome about this is

00:47:03.520 --> 00:47:07.680
if you're not even that savvy or serious about your privacy

00:47:06.720 --> 00:47:12.880
um you're more protected with this because you can't be phished with this

00:47:11.760 --> 00:47:18.079
because your password is like a secret that you know and

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

00:47:19.440 --> 00:47:27.359
by asking you what it is which is what phishing is

00:47:27.359 --> 00:47:35.280
my wife actually got an sms recently that was like your your telco

00:47:32.800 --> 00:47:40.480
has given you a refund or your isp is giving you a refund of 114.61

00:47:38.240 --> 00:47:44.800
click through you click through and it's got tiles for each of the common banks

00:47:43.440 --> 00:47:49.680
in canada totally branded looks totally professional looks awesome and you just

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

00:47:52.880 --> 00:47:59.280
explicitly know like uh this isp never texts me they never text

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

00:48:01.680 --> 00:48:07.599
free money free money yeah anything's possible sms

00:48:05.839 --> 00:48:10.560
people get fished all the time so you can't get fish with this

00:48:12.640 --> 00:48:18.839
you still totally could because if it would just be done in a different way

00:48:16.640 --> 00:48:23.839
because you would have to have it capture your authentication i guess

00:48:22.240 --> 00:48:27.680
so because you're saying this is a general API for everyone right so they

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

00:48:31.280 --> 00:48:38.000
and you'd be like click when you have to when you get like it on

00:48:35.200 --> 00:48:42.240
Android or iOS when you get a a permission prompt that was like share

00:48:40.319 --> 00:48:44.319
your fingerprint with this website and you'd be like that's weird i already did

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

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

00:48:53.040 --> 00:48:58.559
don't know it still might work its potential you could also algorithm it

00:48:56.800 --> 00:49:02.319
out to like angle it slightly to try to make it slightly different um and

00:49:00.640 --> 00:49:05.760
honestly i would honestly think most people would go like oh yeah go away

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

00:49:07.839 --> 00:49:16.559
it's it's still possible there's there's phishing attempts that succeed that are

00:49:13.520 --> 00:49:18.880
super garbage all the time uh and

00:49:16.559 --> 00:49:23.119
there's actually some people who intentionally make things like fishing

00:49:21.359 --> 00:49:26.559
uh attempts that are really bad

00:49:24.800 --> 00:49:30.559
because they don't want to get savvy people ah

00:49:28.480 --> 00:49:34.160
so they actually weed out savvy people by making it

00:49:31.839 --> 00:49:37.280
fairly obviously fake so if someone does fall for it they can probably get way

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

00:49:40.480 --> 00:49:46.640
the the world of of people trying to

00:49:43.760 --> 00:49:49.599
benefit off of other people uh is vast and well-educated that actually is a

00:49:48.160 --> 00:49:54.720
pretty good segue into another thing that happened which is this ransomware

00:49:52.160 --> 00:49:59.839
that asks yeah pubg get this ransomware it's like your data

00:49:57.280 --> 00:50:03.280
is encrypted the only way to get it back is to play this video game

00:50:03.359 --> 00:50:09.200
like we're not affiliated just play it because it's awesome or if

00:50:07.359 --> 00:50:12.079
you don't want to do that just enter the password that's actually written right

00:50:10.640 --> 00:50:15.760
here on the screen so it's just like just like a joke

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

00:50:17.599 --> 00:50:26.480
campaign it's obviously like bad and stuff viral

00:50:23.119 --> 00:50:26.480
it's a viral it's a virus

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

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

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

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

00:50:48.160 --> 00:50:55.760
you can just type that in i think it's i think it's funny um

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

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

00:51:01.359 --> 00:51:08.880
to happen to me just because i'd be like well i guess i gotta play

00:51:05.839 --> 00:51:08.880
pubg right honey

00:51:09.280 --> 00:51:14.000
luke it's date night ignore that code

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

00:51:16.720 --> 00:51:24.960
super important yes family pictures

00:51:21.680 --> 00:51:24.960
my family videos

00:51:25.200 --> 00:51:31.680
my family vr videos yes of course

00:51:29.200 --> 00:51:37.200
so apparently warranty sticker stickers that say if you remove the sticker

00:51:33.440 --> 00:51:38.480
you're going to your buoyancy is ward

00:51:37.200 --> 00:51:43.599
you know what i'm talking about this was posted by steve uh grabowski on the

00:51:40.880 --> 00:51:45.440
forum and the previous topic was posted by

00:51:45.440 --> 00:51:50.960
no one hey grabowski thanks for the topic yes

00:51:49.040 --> 00:51:55.839
warranty void if removed that sticker apparently is and illegal so

00:51:53.440 --> 00:51:58.960
the ftc is cracking down they've sent

00:51:57.200 --> 00:52:02.079
letters to six major companies they haven't said who these companies are but

00:52:00.240 --> 00:52:06.160
they're rigged yeah and they're in the sectors of

00:52:03.440 --> 00:52:09.280
their car manufacturers of cars they are

00:52:07.280 --> 00:52:12.640
did i even write it down video yeah here we go automobiles cellular devices and

00:52:11.119 --> 00:52:16.839
video game systems uh makers like i'm pretty sure they're

00:52:14.240 --> 00:52:19.839
big companies like so yeah yeah so

00:52:18.400 --> 00:52:23.359
they've sent warning letters to these companies writing that statements that

00:52:21.920 --> 00:52:28.559
consumers must use specified parts or service providers

00:52:26.400 --> 00:52:31.839
to keep their warranties is actually illegal and it has been

00:52:29.920 --> 00:52:35.200
since 1975. and we've kind of always sort of known

00:52:34.319 --> 00:52:43.839
this to be completely honest okay okay um but it's been so ah okay

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

00:52:46.240 --> 00:52:52.240
kind of known this for a long time but that being said because there hasn't

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

00:52:54.079 --> 00:53:00.400
can point at like really old laws and whatever but most companies just act on

00:52:58.559 --> 00:53:04.240
the idea that it that it is enforceable so we'll make it

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

00:53:08.000 --> 00:53:13.280
think even if even if the case was that like

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

00:53:14.880 --> 00:53:20.480
and they're gonna have to uh honor the warranty anyway

00:53:18.960 --> 00:53:24.800
just the fact that they have a sticker on there and are deterring a large part

00:53:22.559 --> 00:53:28.559
of the population even that is getting cracked down on right which is good

00:53:26.559 --> 00:53:32.960
because that sticker like you're right deters a huge percentage of population

00:53:30.559 --> 00:53:37.119
basically almost everyone and then uh even if it doesn't like i love breaking

00:53:35.119 --> 00:53:41.119
those stickers uh if i did want a warranty repair for something that i

00:53:38.559 --> 00:53:44.720
broke the sticker on uh it would be a nightmare and probably not worth my time

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

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

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

00:53:57.200 --> 00:54:04.160
director of the ftt ftc's bureau of consumer protection he said proficient

00:54:02.240 --> 00:54:08.319
provisions that tie warranty coverage to the use of particular products or

00:54:05.520 --> 00:54:12.480
services harm both consumers who pay more for them as well as the small

00:54:10.480 --> 00:54:16.480
businesses who offer competing products and services

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

00:54:18.800 --> 00:54:22.880
people that are yeah they know how to fix them

00:54:21.839 --> 00:54:26.720
those people should be able to start businesses and fix up these computers yeah

00:54:25.440 --> 00:54:30.720
i completely agree they're right to repair you know let's not waste as much

00:54:29.680 --> 00:54:37.359
stuff sounds good to me homebod

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

00:54:39.520 --> 00:54:45.680
uh this is this is interesting apple hasn't what's the

00:54:43.680 --> 00:54:49.920
last thing that apple released that was a new product

00:54:47.920 --> 00:54:54.640
um airpods okay yeah no you got me immediately well

00:54:52.720 --> 00:54:58.559
that goes out the window um i was thinking like they're they're watched it

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

00:54:59.839 --> 00:55:04.800
airpods have done great but they're okay they are well headphones the watch

00:55:03.359 --> 00:55:07.040
game's steamed has

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

00:55:12.160 --> 00:55:17.280
people care about smart watches no no the category is is still yeah pretty

00:55:16.079 --> 00:55:20.960
niche so here's the story with the home pods

00:55:19.200 --> 00:55:25.280
um when it was when the pre-orders went out

00:55:23.599 --> 00:55:30.720
that weekend the the sales of like the pre-orders

00:55:27.839 --> 00:55:36.000
there for the home pod accounted for 73 of all smart speaker sales that weekend

00:55:33.119 --> 00:55:38.880
and for the first month i believe it was ten percent

00:55:37.359 --> 00:55:42.079
of the market basically the market share of homepod

00:55:40.559 --> 00:55:47.440
relative to other smart speakers like the amazon echo and google home is abysmal

00:55:46.240 --> 00:55:51.119
and shrinking had a depressing rate

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

00:55:55.760 --> 00:56:02.720
about a third of the us smart smart speaker market in unit sales but by the

00:56:00.480 --> 00:56:08.640
time homepod arrived in stores sales were tanking during the first 10 weeks

00:56:05.440 --> 00:56:10.559
they had 10 of the smart speaker market

00:56:08.640 --> 00:56:13.440
but three weeks after launch sales slipped to about four percent

00:56:12.720 --> 00:56:19.359
that it didn't help that they missed the entire holiday season and that when they

00:56:16.880 --> 00:56:22.799
did ship they were missing two critical uh features that they're gonna have to

00:56:20.480 --> 00:56:25.440
wait for apple airplay two uh before they have which is gonna be like july or

00:56:24.400 --> 00:56:29.680
something all that not withstanding uh the end

00:56:27.520 --> 00:56:34.240
result here is that apple has actually slashed the quantity that they're

00:56:31.839 --> 00:56:39.760
ordering from their suppliers now from 500 000 units to 200 000 units

00:56:37.680 --> 00:56:43.760
and the people who are working like anecdotally i guess the yeah employees

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

00:56:46.400 --> 00:56:52.880
they're not really flying off the shelf which is interesting because at

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

00:56:54.559 --> 00:56:59.119
who said that because if that was at pacific center like in vancouver it's

00:56:58.319 --> 00:57:05.200
like damn yeah they sell like 10 iphones a day yeah yeah yeah exactly but

00:57:03.520 --> 00:57:09.440
yeah and like yeah there's a little apple section of

00:57:06.960 --> 00:57:13.119
the local best pie and like if they sold 10 home hots a day they'd

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

00:57:27.760 --> 00:57:34.079
thing they're stoked so like it depends on the scale um

00:57:32.559 --> 00:57:38.319
of where you're dealing with but essentially they're not selling very

00:57:35.760 --> 00:57:41.119
well so there's a rumor here i believe it's just a rumor

00:57:39.760 --> 00:57:44.400
i mean it's definitely just a rumor i just don't know how how like

00:57:42.799 --> 00:57:49.599
authoritative that rumor is but yeah people are saying that apple could be

00:57:46.160 --> 00:57:51.760
considering making a smaller homepod

00:57:49.599 --> 00:57:55.520
i guess it would be cheaper because i mean it's a pretty competitive

00:57:54.480 --> 00:58:00.799
market yeah this isn't a bluetooth speaker but

00:57:58.240 --> 00:58:05.200
bluetooth speakers are totally uh totally commodity by now and the thing

00:58:03.599 --> 00:58:09.680
with smart speakers is apple's the only one that's not decoupled from their own

00:58:07.359 --> 00:58:13.200
proprietary device like you can get sonos to have or you will be soon

00:58:11.440 --> 00:58:16.240
someone else to have google assistant in them yeah you can get

00:58:14.720 --> 00:58:20.400
someone to have alexa in them there's some devices that have amazon

00:58:18.240 --> 00:58:23.760
alexa as well as google assistant in them oh i actually didn't know uh sonos

00:58:22.559 --> 00:58:27.440
is going to be like that soon and i believe there's a company that

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

00:58:29.359 --> 00:58:37.040
that to address alexa and then address i said it to dress her and then address

00:58:34.720 --> 00:58:41.359
google home like for whatever you want like that's awesome anyway um here's a

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

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

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

00:58:51.119 --> 00:58:56.480
echo dot everything with the google home and the google home mini the thing that

00:58:54.960 --> 00:58:59.760
makes it cheaper and smaller is that they've compromised on sound quality

00:58:58.720 --> 00:59:05.200
like the google home mini doesn't have the speakers that the bigger one does

00:59:03.040 --> 00:59:09.359
but with the homepod that's the only thing that the homepod does well is the

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

00:59:12.079 --> 00:59:18.160
the reasons why homepod isn't doing well you'd have a crappy assistant that

00:59:15.599 --> 00:59:23.520
doesn't do that much stuff yeah so why would you buy that you

00:59:20.000 --> 00:59:23.520
wouldn't so it doesn't make any sense

00:59:23.599 --> 00:59:29.359
i i think if they are doing that

00:59:27.040 --> 00:59:32.799
uh i think it would speak to the like post

00:59:30.799 --> 00:59:35.359
steve jobs apple and like i don't know if they are doing

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

00:59:39.520 --> 00:59:46.559
old apple with steve jobs not old old apple without him or older apple with

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

00:59:47.839 --> 00:59:55.440
currently in um they would have demanded

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

00:59:57.119 --> 01:00:02.799
like no this is what people should have and people will learn that we're right

01:00:00.880 --> 01:00:06.640
eventually or whatever and everything that they would

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

01:00:08.640 --> 01:00:15.200
amount the first time they made it they would just make another one which is a

01:00:12.400 --> 01:00:18.799
linear improvement as well from there i think you can categorize that by arrows

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

01:00:20.880 --> 01:00:27.280
the maturation of the that particular market category and now

01:00:26.160 --> 01:00:31.920
there's lots of different iphones because the smartphone market is just

01:00:29.520 --> 01:00:35.760
way more mature in terms of speakers though like their their market strategy

01:00:33.680 --> 01:00:40.160
now is like we're a hardware company whose principal product the smartphone

01:00:38.240 --> 01:00:43.839
is under attack at all sides and being commoditized so what we're going to do

01:00:41.680 --> 01:00:47.920
instead because we can't get more iphone customers is we're just going to get

01:00:45.839 --> 01:00:51.760
more money from our existing customers through all these

01:00:49.280 --> 01:00:55.680
kind of uh ancillary products like airpods and the homepod so

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

01:00:59.200 --> 01:01:04.079
customers that's wicked i don't think they're going to compromise on that i

01:01:02.319 --> 01:01:08.240
don't think they're going to say you know what instead of getting 350

01:01:06.240 --> 01:01:12.319
from our customers we're going to get 150 with this like weak ass homepod yeah

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

01:01:16.160 --> 01:01:22.640
to spend their resources on making the home pod that already exists more

01:01:20.400 --> 01:01:26.559
attractive why don't they just make it you know focus on the ecosystem

01:01:24.400 --> 01:01:29.920
focus on the the uh integration with more smart home stuff makes siri better

01:01:28.480 --> 01:01:34.240
make siri better if you can at this point yeah and that's gonna affect all

01:01:32.000 --> 01:01:38.400
your other products as well i think focusing on the ecosystem for them is

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

01:01:41.119 --> 01:01:49.200
is bunk i think the first person to make a

01:01:46.640 --> 01:01:53.920
very personalized assistant is gonna start winning me over pretty fast

01:01:51.440 --> 01:01:57.280
when it's like actual conversational oh yeah that would when it's scarlet

01:01:55.920 --> 01:02:00.799
like sup like you mean from is that is that

01:01:58.960 --> 01:02:03.920
that's heard her yeah yeah okay have you seen uh why him

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

01:02:08.559 --> 01:02:13.280
yeah there's a uh there's a virtual assistant in that movie that's totally

01:02:11.599 --> 01:02:18.000
totally colloquial like it fights with you and stuff yeah perfect yeah

01:02:15.520 --> 01:02:22.000
like i i'm careful no seriously though like i

01:02:18.880 --> 01:02:24.000
i want it to be like you're late

01:02:22.000 --> 01:02:28.000
wake up yeah yeah then when i'm like no i want to get up

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

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

01:02:33.440 --> 01:02:38.880
would honestly mostly prefer that it was local and

01:02:37.119 --> 01:02:42.559
didn't have to call back to outside servers and would just use my own stuff

01:02:40.640 --> 01:02:46.160
so if someone makes one of those i'll spend exorbitant amounts of money

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

01:02:49.760 --> 01:02:54.960
but yeah well that'll happen eventually

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

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

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

01:03:07.040 --> 01:03:12.640
conversational will definitely happen yeah and i'm but knowing about you and

01:03:11.280 --> 01:03:18.559
dealing with you the only data they need for that is data

01:03:15.039 --> 01:03:20.960
from you so why wouldn't that be local

01:03:18.559 --> 01:03:24.400
because they want all of it though i got confused for a second but it's

01:03:22.240 --> 01:03:29.760
because they want all of that data so they can train the rest of their

01:03:26.559 --> 01:03:33.359
their devices and stuff and so they can

01:03:29.760 --> 01:03:33.359
take things from it for the most point

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

01:03:36.880 --> 01:03:42.160
one more in here okay uh speaking of google basically

01:03:40.079 --> 01:03:45.680
there's some leaks of where the heck did i put this

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

01:03:48.720 --> 01:03:55.599
yeah someone data mining is profitable basically yeah this looks awesome uh not only does

01:03:53.599 --> 01:03:58.400
it aesthetically looks kind of cool or more Android

01:03:56.799 --> 01:04:02.160
but it has this new feature of like confidential

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

01:04:04.720 --> 01:04:10.799
lock icon your email gets all these new properties such as

01:04:08.640 --> 01:04:13.839
the recipient can no longer forward that email they can't download it they can't

01:04:12.880 --> 01:04:19.680
print it obviously they can take a screenshot because you can take a screenshot or

01:04:17.359 --> 01:04:23.119
even if you somehow block that because of their native os they could just take

01:04:21.440 --> 01:04:28.319
another thing and take a picture yeah sure sure for sure you'll never get past

01:04:24.720 --> 01:04:30.240
that um it disables copy and paste

01:04:28.319 --> 01:04:34.480
and it lets you make it explode so you can make the email itself expire after

01:04:32.799 --> 01:04:40.640
like a week or a month or a year or multiple years and when that happens

01:04:38.880 --> 01:04:43.680
so there are other services that have these kind of

01:04:42.240 --> 01:04:48.559
properties already the notably is protonmail

01:04:45.359 --> 01:04:50.720
if a proton mail user sends an email

01:04:48.559 --> 01:04:54.960
or a message to another proton mail user and it's exploding message when it

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

01:04:57.760 --> 01:05:03.440
works or is probably gonna work with the new google one is

01:05:01.760 --> 01:05:06.160
if you're the recipient you're gonna get an email looks like a normal email

01:05:04.960 --> 01:05:10.559
you're gonna open that email and it's gonna have a link to the confidential

01:05:08.079 --> 01:05:12.880
email so when it expires i think it's just that link that expires and the

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

01:05:16.880 --> 01:05:22.559
gonna have to enter your google credentials again which is pretty sweet because then if

01:05:21.039 --> 01:05:26.240
someone stole your laptop and just had access to your email because you left it

01:05:24.240 --> 01:05:31.280
open they still wouldn't have access to that that confidential email and you can also

01:05:29.440 --> 01:05:34.319
stipulate that they need to enter like a two-factor thing like a sms

01:05:33.359 --> 01:05:39.440
when when they get that email too

01:05:36.960 --> 01:05:43.039
just increases security someone steals your device and figures out your pattern

01:05:41.280 --> 01:05:46.799
or your code or whatever and can get into it like we were talking earlier

01:05:44.640 --> 01:05:51.359
like my passwords would still be locked but emails auto login so if all my

01:05:49.359 --> 01:05:55.440
emails had this thing or all the important ones had this thing

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

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

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

01:06:05.520 --> 01:06:10.559
times yeah well you could make it so that the expiration date is like way way

01:06:09.440 --> 01:06:15.680
down the line uh it also says etc so i

01:06:13.280 --> 01:06:19.280
could see a potential situation where it just doesn't ever explode but it has all

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

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

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

01:06:31.200 --> 01:06:35.680
an accountant you could tell your clients like hey

01:06:34.400 --> 01:06:39.920
send me your your stuff just make it explode in seven

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

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

01:06:45.520 --> 01:06:50.960
but yeah whatever i think that would be cool it's friday night

01:06:49.599 --> 01:06:55.920
and speaking of friday night i think that's the end of the show i'm out of zuck juice yeah that means it's over i
