00:00:00.160 --> 00:00:06.560
When I first saw the Umbrella Arcades wall-mounted arcade machine, I had to

00:00:04.799 --> 00:00:09.840
have it. I mean, there's the sleek design. There's the fact that you've got

00:00:08.160 --> 00:00:17.199
any retro game you could want at your fingertips. The fact it doesn't take up

00:00:11.759 --> 00:00:19.600
any floor space. But the price, $4,400,

00:00:17.199 --> 00:00:25.199
$1,800 for the shell. It's some bent sheet metal. Yeah. How is this thing so

00:00:22.720 --> 00:00:29.519
expensive? I feel like anyone with some spare time and some tools could probably

00:00:27.519 --> 00:00:36.399
make one themselves. I've got some tools and some spare time or paid time.

00:00:33.360 --> 00:00:39.040
Okay, fine. But here's the deal. You

00:00:36.399 --> 00:00:42.239
can't use any exotic tools. Basically, if you couldn't borrow it from your

00:00:40.480 --> 00:00:47.200
boomer neighbor, you're not allowed to use it. And you have to include an

00:00:44.960 --> 00:00:51.520
hourly wage in your cost because your time isn't free. Okay. But if I pull it

00:00:49.760 --> 00:00:59.440
off, it gets to live on the line set for a month. What? You heard me. Okay. What

00:00:56.559 --> 00:01:03.600
the What a weird handshake. Deal. Like this deal we made with our sponsor,

00:01:01.160 --> 00:01:08.000
Vessie. Rain or shine, you can treat every day like it's Friday with their

00:01:05.360 --> 00:01:11.600
stylish weekend sneakers. Their Datex material is designed to keep moisture

00:01:09.680 --> 00:01:17.750
out while remaining lightweight and breathable. And you can get 15% off your

00:01:14.080 --> 00:01:25.120
first pair by using our link down below.

00:01:26.880 --> 00:01:32.400
I want to take on Umbrella's high-end model. They're using a Nookstyle

00:01:30.240 --> 00:01:36.000
computer with a Ryzen 7. We can easily match or beat that. Construction-wise,

00:01:34.479 --> 00:01:39.360
it's just a bunch of sheet metal with holes punched in and bent it in shape.

00:01:37.759 --> 00:01:42.960
All we got to do is throw in a monitor, speakers, controls, and I guess figure

00:01:41.600 --> 00:01:48.079
out how to hang it on the wall and we're good to go. I'd love to just do this whole thing out of wood in like a couple

00:01:46.000 --> 00:01:52.159
hours and call it a day, but that's not really the point of the series. We're

00:01:49.439 --> 00:01:56.079
trying to remake this thing we found as close as we can to the original style

00:01:54.320 --> 00:01:59.600
and you know learn some new things as we go. You can't use any exotic tools

00:01:58.079 --> 00:02:03.280
because I don't have a welder though. Joining all the metal together is not

00:02:01.920 --> 00:02:08.000
going to be that easy. So I think we're still going to have to use some wood like here on the side panels and then

00:02:06.159 --> 00:02:12.959
we'll screw the rest of the metal into that wood. The control panel electronics

00:02:11.120 --> 00:02:15.599
we can just get online. I'll order them. They'll show up later. Actually mounting

00:02:14.480 --> 00:02:21.120
them is going to be a little tricky because we can't use the laser cutter. You can't use I'm thinking we'll have to

00:02:18.879 --> 00:02:25.040
use either a hole saw or maybe we've got a big enough step bit, something like

00:02:22.640 --> 00:02:28.319
that. We'll see when we get to it. The thing we can't get around is we're going

00:02:26.800 --> 00:02:32.319
to have to bend metal, but I've got just the thing for that. The rules say I can

00:02:30.720 --> 00:02:36.560
buy one special tool as long as it's within reach of you guys following along

00:02:33.760 --> 00:02:40.959
at home. This is a sheet metal brake, and you can get it at places like Harbor

00:02:38.239 --> 00:02:44.800
Freight. It's not cheap by any means, but it's not expensive compared to our

00:02:42.640 --> 00:02:47.040
$4,400 arcade machine. And once we're done with it, we can throw it on

00:02:45.840 --> 00:02:50.200
marketplace and get some of our money back. Let's go check out the metal we're

00:02:48.879 --> 00:02:55.680
actually going to be working with. This is 18 gauge steel. It's uh 2

00:02:53.840 --> 00:02:59.840
ft x 4 ft. And that's actually going to impact our design choices a little bit.

00:02:57.519 --> 00:03:04.239
Let me explain. 2 ft is going to be too narrow for two players to stand at, but

00:03:02.159 --> 00:03:07.840
the 4ft width of our metal is definitely too wide. I think we're going to hit

00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:11.840
somewhere around 30 in. And we'll do some cutting. I think our best bet is to

00:03:10.159 --> 00:03:15.440
make our wooden sides and frame first and then we'll adjust the metal to fit

00:03:13.599 --> 00:03:22.599
that. I'm going to recruit Justin to help for a little while here. He's better with the metal work than me,

00:03:22.599 --> 00:03:28.480
too. We've cut our MDF down to a more manageable size. And now I'm going to

00:03:26.640 --> 00:03:32.640
start drawing the silhouette down on the wood so we know where to cut. I'm doing

00:03:30.480 --> 00:03:37.920
a little bit of designing on the go here because I don't want to have any lengths

00:03:34.959 --> 00:03:41.840
that are greater than 24 in because of the size of our metal panels. This is a

00:03:40.000 --> 00:03:46.000
bevel gauge. I'm using it to copy the angles from my drawing onto the wood.

00:03:44.239 --> 00:03:50.400
This one's pretty ancient, but you can still get these in literally any

00:03:47.760 --> 00:03:54.400
hardware shop for like 10, 20 bucks. I think you can see this starting to take

00:03:51.760 --> 00:03:58.319
shape now. Uh the monitor will be up here. The controls are going to be here

00:03:56.000 --> 00:04:01.680
with lots of room under here for wiring. I think under here I want to leave room

00:04:00.080 --> 00:04:04.720
for a drawer so we can put in our keyboard and mouse and maybe a couple of

00:04:03.280 --> 00:04:07.599
wireless PlayStation controllers, something like that. Draw a little line

00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:11.599
down to the bottom here. It's not too long for our sheet metal. And we can

00:04:09.439 --> 00:04:11.599
start

00:04:13.080 --> 00:04:19.600
cutting. The two layers of MDF is a little bit much for this little jigsaw,

00:04:17.600 --> 00:04:25.120
but I'd rather get both pieces cut the same way at the same time rather than

00:04:21.280 --> 00:04:26.400
trying to make it even later.

00:04:25.120 --> 00:04:30.880
I'm cutting a little bit outside the lines here cuz I can follow it up later on with a router bit and get it

00:04:29.120 --> 00:04:35.919
perfectly smooth. What are you doing? L said we could use the bandsaw. Oh yeah.

00:04:33.280 --> 00:04:39.600
Why am I doing this? A bandsaw does a lot of the same job as a jigsaw, just a

00:04:37.680 --> 00:04:43.520
lot more efficiently. And every boomer has a band saw

00:04:41.320 --> 00:04:47.520
anyway. Okay, I think you can see the the basic shape we're going for here.

00:04:45.759 --> 00:04:53.120
All we need to do now is clean it up a little bit and then we can start working on the metal. We got a flush trim bit in

00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:57.280
our router here. And this will basically ride along this bearing on this hunk of

00:04:56.000 --> 00:05:02.240
plywood we've attached here as a straight edge. And it'll make this edge

00:04:59.919 --> 00:05:05.600
perfectly smooth. Here we have our two sides. Uh we'll have to a little bit

00:05:03.680 --> 00:05:10.000
more clean up later on, but don't worry about that right now. Uh the last thing

00:05:07.520 --> 00:05:13.280
we'll end up doing is a slot right along the edge here. And that'll be for some

00:05:11.840 --> 00:05:16.960
molding later on to heat everything up at the end. I'm just marking about a/ an

00:05:15.360 --> 00:05:20.639
inch in from the edge. And that's where our metal is going to end up in the end.

00:05:19.039 --> 00:05:24.240
We could cut our metal with these tin snips, but 18 gauge is a little bit

00:05:22.639 --> 00:05:27.360
thick for that. And while we were picking up our sheet metal brake, we

00:05:25.919 --> 00:05:30.160
happened to see these air nippers on sale for about 30 bucks Canadian. So,

00:05:29.120 --> 00:05:35.440
we're going to go with that. It's going to be way easier. Our goal is to have 30

00:05:32.880 --> 00:05:39.600
in wide, but we're going to add on an inch on either side of that to have

00:05:37.120 --> 00:05:44.880
little tabs on each of the I guess we'll call them side edges of our metal. We're

00:05:42.320 --> 00:05:50.320
going to have, I think, three tabs that will bend over and they'll screw into

00:05:47.039 --> 00:05:51.759
our wood panels. Um, we're just kind of

00:05:50.320 --> 00:05:55.520
figuring out exactly where to lay them out. And then we'll, uh, get cutting.

00:05:54.080 --> 00:05:59.039
Again, I don't remember what this is called, but we're going to use this to

00:05:57.120 --> 00:06:03.639
bend our tabs. So, we're basically going to just measure in a couple inches from

00:06:00.800 --> 00:06:08.919
the end, put our clamp in place, and then mark on either side of

00:06:05.919 --> 00:06:08.919
it.

00:06:23.840 --> 00:06:28.960
Right now, this is still pretty floppy. We're going to fold over an edge on each

00:06:27.759 --> 00:06:31.120
side, and that's going to give us a lot more

00:06:36.680 --> 00:06:40.240
rigidity there.

00:06:42.400 --> 00:06:48.160
So, our next one. I think we can do this whole piece as one, right? Yeah. Let's

00:06:45.600 --> 00:06:48.160
just do a little

00:06:52.440 --> 00:06:56.960
piece. Little more if it's possible. I don't know if it

00:06:58.120 --> 00:07:03.520
is. Yeah, that's good. This is T- molding. It'll go around all the edges

00:07:02.080 --> 00:07:09.759
here once we're done. I'm just making sure I've got this relatively lined up.

00:07:07.199 --> 00:07:09.759
Oh, that's

00:07:11.000 --> 00:07:18.000
perfect. I'm just assembling the side panels with some MDF bracing. This is

00:07:16.000 --> 00:07:22.400
also 30 in across, so it'll be the same as our panels when we're done with them.

00:07:20.880 --> 00:07:28.160
And uh this will give us a little bit more rigidity in the back without having to do a bunch more metal.

00:07:26.400 --> 00:07:30.639
Sorry. He's not

00:07:33.080 --> 00:07:41.199
sorry. I've got the panel for the monitor here. Let's uh see if it

00:07:38.520 --> 00:07:46.240
fits. Good work, Justin. We're at the end of day one, so let's kind of check

00:07:43.280 --> 00:07:52.160
in where we are here. Our MDF sides, those are good. Happy with that. Uh

00:07:49.360 --> 00:07:55.840
metal panels, the one for the monitor is mostly here. We got to cut a hole in it,

00:07:53.759 --> 00:08:01.080
but that's easy enough. The control panel, Justin's got that about 3/4 of

00:07:58.319 --> 00:08:04.319
the way done, I would say, for the the mounting. So, I mean, we're going to

00:08:03.280 --> 00:08:08.400
cross those off just because I have to cross something off. Uh, tomorrow we got

00:08:06.800 --> 00:08:12.479
to build a drawer to go underneath the control panel. That's for our keyboard

00:08:09.840 --> 00:08:17.039
and mouse and everything. And then we'll deal with a plate underneath that. We'll

00:08:15.120 --> 00:08:21.280
check in with Pancrats for a PC, figure out all our electronics, and eventually

00:08:19.440 --> 00:08:23.840
we'll show this thing to Linus. It's day two, and uh while we're waiting for

00:08:22.479 --> 00:08:27.840
Justin to get here, we're just going to put some screws into the wood frame to

00:08:26.400 --> 00:08:30.879
beef it up a little bit. It's important to pre-drill the holes so we don't split

00:08:29.440 --> 00:08:36.080
the wood. And we're also using a bit of a counter synink here. So the screws will end up below the surface of the

00:08:33.760 --> 00:08:39.519
wood. That way we can maybe put on some fill afterwards to make it nice and

00:08:40.440 --> 00:08:46.320
smooth. Justin's using this map gas torch. You'll find this in the plumbing

00:08:44.240 --> 00:08:50.080
section of any Home Depot. He's heating up the metal and bending over our tab so

00:08:48.160 --> 00:08:56.000
we can attach it onto the wooden frame. I'm going to use this 1x6 to build a

00:08:52.399 --> 00:08:57.839
French cleat mounting system.

00:08:56.000 --> 00:09:01.360
How this works is we stick this up against the wall and then the arcade

00:08:59.760 --> 00:09:05.360
machine will just hang right off of it. And because we cut it at the same time, it's a perfect

00:09:09.000 --> 00:09:16.160
alignment. So, something like that. I got these templates from a site called

00:09:14.440 --> 00:09:20.880
slagcoin.com. We got a bunch of different options. This is kind of a

00:09:18.040 --> 00:09:24.560
generic version of a typical Japanese arcade machine. And I found this to be

00:09:22.800 --> 00:09:30.240
pretty comfortable for my own use. So, that's what we're going to go with. So, now I just got to cut some holes.

00:09:29.040 --> 00:09:36.880
First things first, uh we're going to drill some pilot holes. So, that way we can use our step drill bit here, which

00:09:34.480 --> 00:09:39.880
will allow us to drill the holes for this.

00:09:43.120 --> 00:09:48.720
What we do, yeah, is just hold it in place where we want it. We're going to

00:09:46.880 --> 00:09:53.040
temporarily install our first couple of panels here. We think that's going to make it a little easier to drill our

00:09:51.200 --> 00:09:57.200
control panel out. It's a little tough to get to our screws from the top. So,

00:09:54.800 --> 00:10:00.800
we flip this up on its side. And it's still, you know, a little awkward as you

00:09:59.040 --> 00:10:05.040
can see here. A little snug, but with an extension and a bit of patience, it's

00:10:02.560 --> 00:10:05.040
going in.

00:10:09.399 --> 00:10:15.200
Okay. Okay. So, this I'm thinking is the

00:10:12.640 --> 00:10:18.800
kick plate. So, the bottom. Yeah. And the drawer we'll figure out to fit in

00:10:16.720 --> 00:10:21.959
the middle with our last piece. Or else even the sunk of scrap maybe. We'll see.

00:10:21.040 --> 00:10:26.160
Little more under 90, but like probably

00:10:30.200 --> 00:10:37.519
75. We grabbed this old ASUS ProArt monitor from Logistics. It's not in

00:10:35.040 --> 00:10:41.200
great shape, but it'll do 1440 at 60 Hz, which is really all we need to do. And I

00:10:39.600 --> 00:10:45.920
can find it for about 100 bucks on eBay, which is a good bonus. I'm thinking we

00:10:43.760 --> 00:10:49.680
put in a shelf to hold the monitor. Something like that. And then we can

00:10:47.680 --> 00:10:55.120
just use the two ball joints in the monitor arm to position the monitor to

00:10:52.720 --> 00:10:55.120
fit our

00:10:55.880 --> 00:11:00.800
hole. Our monitor fits quite nicely in

00:11:01.320 --> 00:11:04.320
here.

00:11:04.680 --> 00:11:12.200
There. And then flip her up onto the floor again. We're doing good. Now what?

00:11:10.519 --> 00:11:17.200
Drawer. Yeah. This piece here will be our front

00:11:15.120 --> 00:11:22.040
panel for the drawer. These are the sides and this is the back. Meaning that

00:11:19.920 --> 00:11:27.760
we need to get rid of this big chunk here,

00:11:23.800 --> 00:11:27.760
here, this hole by

00:11:31.720 --> 00:11:36.720
here. So, in terms of physical

00:11:34.720 --> 00:11:39.360
construction, probably 90% of the way there. We have to do the electronics.

00:11:38.399 --> 00:11:43.760
That's going to be just a bunch of wiring, but it's pretty much Lego. Uh

00:11:41.760 --> 00:11:46.320
the PC, we actually had two options delivered earlier today. We haven't had

00:11:44.959 --> 00:11:51.279
a chance to look at them yet. Turn everything on, see if we can play some games and show it to Linus and, you

00:11:50.000 --> 00:11:55.279
know, maybe paint it and make it look a little bit less ugly. We bought two

00:11:53.279 --> 00:12:01.399
packs of these Sana 30 mil buttons. They're the same ones that are being

00:11:56.480 --> 00:12:01.399
used by the Umbrella Arcades machine.

00:12:07.839 --> 00:12:13.760
You may have noticed this is upside down right now, but there's a good reason for

00:12:11.040 --> 00:12:17.519
that is we're about to drill out for the joysticks. Before we get to that, I just

00:12:16.160 --> 00:12:20.959
want to show you the drawer slots we put in here on either side. And our metal

00:12:19.760 --> 00:12:25.040
drawer is just going to ride along those. And inside there, we can put our

00:12:22.959 --> 00:12:28.320
PC and our keyboard and extra controllers, all that kind of fun stuff.

00:12:26.320 --> 00:12:31.920
So, it's easy to access. Don't have to pull off any panels or anything to do

00:12:29.680 --> 00:12:36.720
any changes. These are sand joysticks as well that came along with our buttons as

00:12:33.519 --> 00:12:39.160
a set. And we just need four bolts to

00:12:36.720 --> 00:12:43.519
hold them into our control panel. We're still waiting for the

00:12:41.279 --> 00:12:47.120
proper bolts to arrive. Those will have no cut in the top so they be nice and

00:12:45.200 --> 00:12:51.120
smooth. But for now, these will work fine. Each of our joystick kits pairs

00:12:49.200 --> 00:12:56.600
with one of these little control boards. Basically, it's just a little USB

00:12:52.639 --> 00:12:59.040
controller. We plug our wire into one

00:12:56.600 --> 00:13:05.120
end and the other end goes to each one of the buttons. I think it looks like an

00:13:00.959 --> 00:13:05.120
arcade machine. Let's see if it

00:13:12.920 --> 00:13:18.360
works. Yeah, that happened. We're using our magnetic cable management essential

00:13:17.440 --> 00:13:23.200
solution, ltdstore.com, to connect our control

00:13:21.360 --> 00:13:26.480
boards right onto our metal housing. Conveniently

00:13:24.519 --> 00:13:30.639
magnetic. Obviously, we're going to need a computer to run this thing. So, we had

00:13:28.399 --> 00:13:34.480
David give us a couple of options. Oh, not that David. This is uh David

00:13:32.240 --> 00:13:36.959
Pancrret. He's our new uh technical production assistant. Something like

00:13:35.680 --> 00:13:41.279
that. Yeah, that's the one. Perfect. What do you got for us? Uh I've got two

00:13:38.959 --> 00:13:46.160
options here. Okay. Uh we've got the Raspberry Pi 5 and this has a hat on it

00:13:44.240 --> 00:13:50.000
so you can stick an NVMe drive in there. Beautiful. We've got a 4 TB drive in

00:13:48.079 --> 00:13:54.160
here right now, which is a bit overkill. You could drop that down to a two TB and

00:13:52.560 --> 00:13:58.639
save about a h 100red bucks. But this package as it is is about

00:13:56.040 --> 00:14:04.240
$375. That's not too bad. Okay, if you want a little bit more power, we've got

00:14:00.639 --> 00:14:06.480
the Minis Forum UM970 Pro. All right.

00:14:04.240 --> 00:14:11.440
Uh, this one has a two TB drive in it right now and 16 gigs of RAM. And this

00:14:09.760 --> 00:14:15.839
package would end up costing you about 525. Okay, that's not too bad either,

00:14:13.839 --> 00:14:20.160
actually. I'm kind of surprised. Uh, how much time would it take you to set them

00:14:16.880 --> 00:14:21.680
up? Honestly, it was a lot more

00:14:20.160 --> 00:14:24.800
difficult downloading the image off of the site in terms of time. Uh once

00:14:23.279 --> 00:14:29.199
you've got the image off the site, it was as easy as using Etcher to image the

00:14:26.800 --> 00:14:32.880
drives over and then you were pretty much good to go. Perfect. Thank you very

00:14:31.440 --> 00:14:36.480
much for your help. Yeah, not a problem. All right. I'm only going to pay for one

00:14:34.800 --> 00:14:39.519
of these. By the way, I guess we kicked out Pancrrets a little early. We needed

00:14:38.000 --> 00:14:43.680
his help to uh get everything running again here. But now we're looking great.

00:14:41.920 --> 00:14:46.639
Obviously, we need some spit and polish get on the machine, but uh I think we're

00:14:45.360 --> 00:14:53.070
going to do that as a bit of a montage for you guys. And next time you see this, Linus will be evaluating

00:14:50.120 --> 00:15:04.529
it. All

00:15:10.639 --> 00:15:17.199
right, here's what we did.

00:15:13.920 --> 00:15:20.480
Damn. You like it?

00:15:17.199 --> 00:15:23.360
Way more than I expected to.

00:15:20.480 --> 00:15:27.760
Thanks. Don't take that the wrong way. Don't take that the wrong way. We used

00:15:25.920 --> 00:15:31.040
magnetic cable management for our handles.

00:15:29.600 --> 00:15:36.959
Are they attached or are they just No, they're just magnet. They're just Wow.

00:15:33.839 --> 00:15:38.959
Everything magnet. What? I don't get it.

00:15:36.959 --> 00:15:43.000
It's a reference. Two. Except for the parts that are computer.

00:15:41.199 --> 00:15:48.560
Dear God. Um, is that blood? No, that's paint.

00:15:45.920 --> 00:15:52.079
Cool. Well, okay. Here's your coins. First player, second player. Your

00:15:50.399 --> 00:15:55.120
starts. Are those just the monitors builtin

00:15:53.519 --> 00:16:01.279
speakers? No, there's speakers in the back of the Logitech.

00:15:58.480 --> 00:16:05.519
I actually kind of like how they sound. They're an appropriate level of

00:16:03.040 --> 00:16:08.839
Yeah. Yeah, cuz there's no grills, so they've got kind of like a boommy crappy

00:16:07.600 --> 00:16:14.399
sound to them, but it's very arcadey. Well, this

00:16:12.320 --> 00:16:19.440
is great for just quickly navigating. So, uh, how do we go to the Ooh, this is

00:16:17.759 --> 00:16:22.000
a nice interface. This is just a different skin on the same front end,

00:16:20.959 --> 00:16:26.680
though, right? It's still It's still better, but it's like their default interface.

00:16:26.920 --> 00:16:34.880
Oh, balls. Look, it's hard. It is designed

00:16:32.320 --> 00:16:40.440
to steal my quarters. I gotta say in terms of the actual user experience now

00:16:37.440 --> 00:16:42.720
that it is complete because

00:16:40.440 --> 00:16:46.320
obviously it was a little bit more work to

00:16:43.480 --> 00:16:50.240
build. This does not feel meaningfully that different. Do I get to guess what

00:16:48.639 --> 00:16:55.920
the budget was? What did you guys pay yourselves per hour? Uh 30 bucks US an

00:16:52.720 --> 00:16:57.920
hour. $30 an hour. I think you were

00:16:55.920 --> 00:17:00.959
still able to beat them by just over $1,000.

00:16:59.680 --> 00:17:06.959
All right. I think you guys are probably around 3,300 to 3,400 US. Oh, you're way

00:17:04.160 --> 00:17:14.559
over. Really? How long did this take to build? This took 22 29 hours really of

00:17:11.760 --> 00:17:18.079
actual labor. That's pretty good. Couple of weekends basically. Did that include

00:17:16.319 --> 00:17:22.400
all of the software configuration because they've got more games on theirs

00:17:19.439 --> 00:17:30.080
than we have? I have a full name set on there, sir. Our total was $24.44 and 59.

00:17:26.480 --> 00:17:32.880
So, we beat it by two grand pretty much.

00:17:30.080 --> 00:17:37.360
Wow. I see that two different ways. Okay. I see that as wow, we could build

00:17:35.520 --> 00:17:41.440
something that is functionally very similar for half the price and have the

00:17:39.840 --> 00:17:46.320
fun of learning how to do it for ourselves while paying ourselves $30 an

00:17:43.760 --> 00:17:51.200
hour to do it. But I also see it as okay, so basically we're paying them two

00:17:49.200 --> 00:17:54.880
grand to figure everything out for us pretty much and for whatever level of

00:17:53.440 --> 00:18:00.720
support they're going to give you. So, the only question that remains then is

00:17:56.880 --> 00:18:02.640
buy or DIY. And you're the only ones who

00:18:00.720 --> 00:18:08.520
can answer this for us. Which would you rather have? This for

00:18:04.760 --> 00:18:12.080
$2,500 or this for

00:18:08.520 --> 00:18:13.520
$4,400? Well, go leave a comment. And

00:18:12.080 --> 00:18:18.240
while you're down there, be sure to check out our sponsor, ground news. Up

00:18:16.480 --> 00:18:23.200
here in Canada, we just had a federal election, meaning that there was a lot

00:18:19.919 --> 00:18:25.440
of, let's call it dubiously factual

00:18:23.200 --> 00:18:30.400
information being thrown around by all the political parties. Well, with ground

00:18:27.840 --> 00:18:35.200
news, we can stay informed instead of being influenced. For every news story,

00:18:33.120 --> 00:18:39.360
we get to see how many sources are reporting on the story, the political

00:18:36.960 --> 00:18:44.559
bias of each article, how reliable the reporting is, and even who owns the

00:18:41.919 --> 00:18:48.320
publications. Take for example this story about misinformation leading up to

00:18:46.640 --> 00:18:53.200
the election. Along with a concise summary, you can also see the breakdown

00:18:50.480 --> 00:18:58.480
of which political side each source leans to with their bias distribution

00:18:55.520 --> 00:19:02.320
feature. In this case, around 70% of them are left-leaning. Then, if you're

00:19:00.640 --> 00:19:06.960
interested in digging deeper, you can even click into each of those sources

00:19:04.320 --> 00:19:11.440
and read the full articles. In fact, even the Nobel Peace Center called

00:19:08.960 --> 00:19:16.640
ground news an excellent way to stay informed, avoid echo chambers, and

00:19:14.080 --> 00:19:21.760
expand your world view. So, start seeing the news the way you deserve to. Facts

00:19:32.559 --> 00:19:39.280
circuit video that we did on the Umbrella Arcade? We found some really

00:19:36.480 --> 00:19:42.320
good things about it and we found some not so good things for what they're

00:19:40.880 --> 00:19:46.880
charging. They could have included better controllers like Jordan did in

00:19:44.000 --> 00:19:46.880
his build.
