frenching really well though HDMI 2.1 00:01:47.840 --> 00:01:53.360 yeah sure uh so this was posted by silver 00:01:51.439 --> 00:01:56.720 silver oh do you mind if i have the uh uh right i was tested this was posted by 00:01:55.119 --> 00:02:01.479 silverdrocci on the forum and the original article 00:01:59.280 --> 00:02:04.799 here is from engadget.com let's go ahead and pull 00:02:03.280 --> 00:02:11.360 that baby up boom HDMI 2.1 is here with support for 00:02:09.360 --> 00:02:17.520 10k and dynamic HDR support and it is 00:02:14.800 --> 00:02:24.560 backwards compatible with previous HDMI specifications that 10k by the way 00:02:19.840 --> 00:02:26.720 pretty weird 10k so so 10k it looks like 00:02:24.560 --> 00:02:33.680 is gonna be more like wide 8k yeah except that that still 00:02:30.400 --> 00:02:36.400 makes it 10k yes because 00:02:33.680 --> 00:02:38.800 the way that we define resolutions because average 00:02:37.920 --> 00:02:46.480 you know joe cons okay nothing against people named joe okay let's just average jeff 00:02:42.560 --> 00:02:49.360 consumer yeah can't handle two numbers 00:02:46.480 --> 00:02:53.680 okay so that's why resolutions are just something k now has to be a maximum of 00:02:51.760 --> 00:02:57.440 three characters or else you've lost them that's right four that's probably 00:02:56.239 --> 00:03:02.280 pushing it that's why swear words usually cap at four you can't go beyond 00:02:59.280 --> 00:03:02.280 there 00:03:04.720 --> 00:03:07.120 okay 00:03:09.200 --> 00:03:14.879 it's kind of a thing how interesting 00:03:13.760 --> 00:03:19.120 um so okay here hold on back to this back to this chart that we're looking at over on 00:03:17.760 --> 00:03:24.080 engadget here so this is this is interesting because back in the day we had full hd 00:03:22.159 --> 00:03:28.319 and that was everyone we didn't really know that as full hd outside of like you 00:03:26.560 --> 00:03:33.680 know like the yeah i mean 1920 by 1080 i think we 00:03:31.200 --> 00:03:36.959 called it 1080p back then and then full hd 00:03:35.280 --> 00:03:41.920 was no no we didn't know it is full hd but that was kind of like used 00:03:39.280 --> 00:03:45.760 some people even said 1080p full hd yeah because we we called it full hd because 00:03:43.760 --> 00:03:51.599 of all the bs marketing that went on around 170 which was called hd hd okay 00:03:49.519 --> 00:03:57.760 this is like no this is like a real hd the full hd it's complete and then 4k 00:03:54.640 --> 00:04:00.239 was like okay it's i get the four so 00:03:57.760 --> 00:04:04.319 it's like four times this and it's also about 4 000 pixels wide 00:04:02.959 --> 00:04:09.680 but then okay so this 5k this is interesting 00:04:06.879 --> 00:04:13.439 we've got about 5000 pixels wide which makes sense that's consistent with the 00:04:11.200 --> 00:04:18.720 4k naming oh something a lot of people don't know is that there was actually a 00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:21.120 2k standard yeah so it's uh 20 00:04:18.720 --> 00:04:25.360 48 by 1080 if i recall correctly but that was only a dci cinema standard that 00:04:23.360 --> 00:04:30.320 wasn't actually a consumer standard and then everything got really confused with 00:04:27.360 --> 00:04:38.560 4k because this resolution 3840 by 2160 is technically uhd ultra hd it is not 4k 00:04:35.199 --> 00:04:40.720 4k should be 4096 by 2160 because it 00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:44.720 would be 4 times 2k but then we weren't sure if we were 00:04:42.320 --> 00:04:49.280 using consumer nomenclature or if we were using a professional nomenclature 00:04:47.280 --> 00:04:54.479 and then the 5k thing i don't know i don't know what the hell that is because 00:04:51.120 --> 00:04:56.880 that's like widescreen 4k that's not 5k 00:04:54.479 --> 00:05:04.240 because 5k the only 5k devices that exist are the apple display 00:05:01.199 --> 00:05:05.680 on the imac and lg's 5k display that's 00:05:04.240 --> 00:05:12.160 also for max and then 8k is 4 times 4k 00:05:09.280 --> 00:05:16.160 but actually this is four times uhd which is four times full hd so the 00:05:14.320 --> 00:05:21.280 decays never meant anything in the first place and also 00:05:18.039 --> 00:05:24.240 7680 is like dangerously not that close 00:05:21.280 --> 00:05:30.479 to 8 000 at this point and then 10k is now apparently four times 5k 00:05:27.520 --> 00:05:33.600 at a different aspect ratio than 8k 4k full hd 00:05:32.160 --> 00:05:39.600 you know what no that was probably horrible sorry 00:05:36.080 --> 00:05:42.240 sorry i'm sorry sorry but i i have to 00:05:39.600 --> 00:05:46.160 express my frustration two numbers 00:05:43.840 --> 00:05:50.800 is not that hard we've been doing it since you know 640 00:05:48.880 --> 00:05:54.639 by 480. it was good enough for me it's good 00:05:52.320 --> 00:05:58.960 enough for the next generation i hate this i hate everything about it except 00:05:56.720 --> 00:06:02.400 that with new HDMI we can run higher resolution and i actually am excited to 00:06:00.720 --> 00:06:07.440 see ultrawide tvs the fact that these standards are making it into the HDMI 00:06:04.960 --> 00:06:12.160 specification means you're gonna see tvs like this anytime 00:06:09.840 --> 00:06:16.160 you don't see a clip there's one that's really high on reddit right now anytime 00:06:13.680 --> 00:06:20.000 you see a clip of horizon zero dawn that's an ultra wide it's like 00:06:18.880 --> 00:06:29.840 that's probably how that game's supposed to be played tvs apparently 480p was first gen hd 00:06:25.759 --> 00:06:32.319 what was that yeah uh hdcrts oh they 00:06:29.840 --> 00:06:37.360 could be i think they could be like 480 progressive or something or something 00:06:34.720 --> 00:06:40.479 something i can't remember the hd term has been 00:06:38.560 --> 00:06:44.400 it's been bastardized yeah there's a swear word that's not four letters yes 00:06:42.720 --> 00:06:48.400 someone in the twitch chat informed me of that yeah i said usually i mean we 00:06:46.560 --> 00:06:51.520 could have thought of a couple i'm sure i think i said usually because there are 00:06:49.680 --> 00:06:55.199 some compound swear words that are definitely more than four letters 00:06:53.600 --> 00:06:59.360 um so anyway there's a bunch of other cool stuff 48 00:06:56.720 --> 00:07:04.639 gigabit per second that's pretty sick 4k at 120 hertz that's actually a lot more 00:07:01.360 --> 00:07:07.120 important to me than 10k yes uh 8k at 60 00:07:04.639 --> 00:07:10.639 hertz that's pretty sweet i guess personally i'm really not that sold on 00:07:09.280 --> 00:07:15.919 above 4k at this point for yeah but that 4k at 00:07:12.800 --> 00:07:18.319 120 is like that's pretty sweet i mean 00:07:15.919 --> 00:07:23.840 8k 60 hertz would be great for like a gigantic projector i guess 00:07:20.639 --> 00:07:28.160 um dynamic HDR variable refresh rate oh 00:07:23.840 --> 00:07:31.120 yes thank you finally oh man when 00:07:28.160 --> 00:07:36.319 i'm surprised that sony and microsoft haven't been pushing harder for variable 00:07:32.720 --> 00:07:38.560 refresh rate because it would mask so 00:07:36.319 --> 00:07:43.440 many of the FPS dips in a good way in a good way yeah like 00:07:41.120 --> 00:07:48.319 actually like mask puts a potentially negative term i guess that's true yeah 00:07:45.919 --> 00:07:52.800 but it is masking but like it would it would it would look 00:07:49.840 --> 00:07:58.000 a lot better uh auto low latency mode so that's cool uh contextual anti-aliasing 00:07:55.759 --> 00:08:01.360 removing jaggies without noticeable blur that sounds like if they get it right 00:07:59.759 --> 00:08:06.879 it'll be great and if they don't then it won't um and sub one millisecond leg although 00:08:04.720 --> 00:08:11.759 that'll be up to the tv makers in terms of how they want to implement that and 00:08:09.360 --> 00:08:17.199 how little lag there actually is because they are constantly dinking around with 00:08:14.160 --> 00:08:19.440 the signal trying to 00:08:17.199 --> 00:08:24.240 do whatever it is that they're trying to certainly wish they wouldn't do 00:08:21.360 --> 00:08:28.240 um yeah every time that i even think about maybe looking into a tv which i 00:08:26.560 --> 00:08:32.479 don't i haven't i've never technically bought a tv um so 00:08:30.800 --> 00:08:36.959 i mean like if someone asks me or whatever else um 00:08:35.200 --> 00:08:41.039 i end up just being like i wish i could just buy a ginormous monitor 00:08:39.440 --> 00:08:45.920 because i don't even exist now yeah like can you get like 00:08:43.279 --> 00:08:49.200 60-inch 65-inch monitors no i think the biggest is that's what i'm talking about 00:08:47.279 --> 00:08:54.080 g has a 42 because like not only do i not want this 00:08:51.760 --> 00:08:59.200 stuff that's on the tv right so i don't want extra smart tv but like the tuner 00:08:56.959 --> 00:09:03.200 it makes it worse it's not like oh that's not a benefit it's like no i 00:09:01.360 --> 00:09:06.720 really really wish that wasn't there i would pay the same price just please 00:09:04.640 --> 00:09:10.480 take it off it's so annoying 00:09:08.560 --> 00:09:15.120 i've got people asking me what's up with the ijustine thing um so 00:09:13.360 --> 00:09:19.839 i went down there hooked her up with a sick 150 terabyte 00:09:18.240 --> 00:09:23.200 storage server in pink and white yeah absolutely did 00:09:21.360 --> 00:09:27.839 you see the picture yeah it's sweet it looks really clean it's 00:09:25.680 --> 00:09:34.320 super cool and then while i was down there i actually impromptu shot a studio 00:09:31.600 --> 00:09:37.760 tour of her place because i actually didn't take a camera this is kind of a 00:09:35.680 --> 00:09:40.560 funny story so uh the original plan was for me to take a camera person down and 00:09:39.360 --> 00:09:46.720 i was gonna stay down for like two or three days and i was gonna hang out with uh jay's tu san si and do um 00:09:45.360 --> 00:09:52.399 because he's actually working i don't wanna say what he's working on because his might still be top secret but it's a 00:09:49.519 --> 00:09:55.920 really cool build um it's like sort of a collab except i don't need to be there 00:09:54.320 --> 00:09:59.279 so i don't need to be there for that anymore so we shortened my trip and then 00:09:58.160 --> 00:10:04.959 the other reason that i was going to take a shooter was that i was probably going to do some kind of video for our 00:10:02.480 --> 00:10:07.680 channel with justine um and then i was like you know what forget it i just need 00:10:06.399 --> 00:10:11.200 to do a short trip because i've been traveling so much lately and you know 00:10:09.920 --> 00:10:15.360 what i don't know if we're gonna have time in one day to do the video for her 00:10:13.440 --> 00:10:18.079 channel and one for mine don't worry about it she already came up 00:10:16.959 --> 00:10:21.680 and she did a a guest appearance for us 00:10:20.160 --> 00:10:26.880 another thing that's never coming out one thing that it'll come out even i'm kidding i'm kidding um 00:10:24.959 --> 00:10:31.360 forget it i'm not gonna shoot a video and then what's funny is Yvonne booked a 00:10:29.279 --> 00:10:35.519 room with two beds just in case i like changed my mind at 00:10:33.200 --> 00:10:38.560 the last second and took a shooter but i didn't 00:10:36.640 --> 00:10:44.399 but then i got to justine's place and i was like this place is amazing this 00:10:41.279 --> 00:10:46.560 place is unbelievable 00:10:44.399 --> 00:10:50.480 and so what i did was i actually borrowed her shooter 00:10:48.640 --> 00:10:55.519 and then just got the clips off the sd card back here and it's actually being edited 00:10:52.880 --> 00:11:00.079 right now nice you are gonna be blown away and this is coming from the 00:10:57.519 --> 00:11:04.560 same person who just did a dead mouse studio tour her place 00:11:02.720 --> 00:11:09.279 is unbelievable it's incredible really cool cool yeah i'm stoked 00:11:06.560 --> 00:11:09.279 one spoiler 00:11:09.920 --> 00:11:16.480 yes she probably has literally 00:11:13.839 --> 00:11:20.959 50 xbox one controllers literally what 00:11:18.480 --> 00:11:26.000 literally okay one more spoiler yeah 00:11:23.440 --> 00:11:30.480 literally every amiibo literally 00:11:28.720 --> 00:11:35.279 like properly using that term every single one literally 00:11:33.200 --> 00:11:41.120 what the heck literally actually literally 00:11:36.800 --> 00:11:43.200 oh my god that's so many amiibos she is 00:11:41.120 --> 00:11:45.920 a way bigger nerd than i give her credit for there's a few i haven't been able to 00:11:44.800 --> 00:11:51.360 get i'm not collecting that many to be very clear i have like four so 00:11:50.240 --> 00:11:55.920 something that i've wanted that i can't get yeah so her place was super cool and 00:11:53.920 --> 00:12:00.079 i was really excited to uh that's pretty cool yeah the entire chat is just like 00:11:57.920 --> 00:12:05.440 literally literally literally um 00:12:02.560 --> 00:12:08.839 i found something that i thought okay you know what forget it that's we'll get 00:12:07.200 --> 00:12:13.920 to it in the video okay um what were we talking about we 00:12:11.760 --> 00:12:17.200 were technically on HDMI but i think we passed on oh yeah i think we're in 00:12:15.360 --> 00:12:22.639 between things and we're maybe doing dji should we do floatplay oh 00:12:19.040 --> 00:12:25.760 let's do dji first yeah dji 00:12:22.639 --> 00:12:26.959 wow so this was posted by wm groom ak on 00:12:25.760 --> 00:12:32.639 the forum and actually we're going with our forum 00:12:30.079 --> 00:12:36.880 for the source of this article here because apparently this was a really 00:12:34.800 --> 00:12:40.240 epic post oh no no end gadget is the original source here let's pull that up 00:12:40.320 --> 00:12:45.920 uh if it ever goes it'll go 00:12:43.519 --> 00:12:49.600 it'll go it'll go 00:12:47.040 --> 00:12:54.480 i'm gonna post it in the twitch chat come on baby you got this 00:12:51.360 --> 00:12:54.480 there we go all right 00:12:54.720 --> 00:13:01.839 homeland security claims 00:12:58.000 --> 00:13:03.360 that dji drones are spying 00:13:01.839 --> 00:13:10.320 for china and it released a memo detailing what it 00:13:05.600 --> 00:13:12.639 believes to be dji's main targets 00:13:10.320 --> 00:13:18.000 wow that is like some pretty serious 00:13:15.920 --> 00:13:21.600 business accusation going on so this is a memo from the los angeles office of 00:13:20.000 --> 00:13:26.399 the immigration and customs enforcement bureau alleging that the data captured from dji 00:13:24.720 --> 00:13:32.639 drone customers in the u.s is being provided to the chinese government 00:13:29.680 --> 00:13:37.519 and the memo originally in august says that and there's a quote with moderate 00:13:34.880 --> 00:13:41.040 confidence the chinese-based company dji science and technology is providing u.s 00:13:39.360 --> 00:13:44.560 critical infrastructure and law enforcement data to the chinese 00:13:42.399 --> 00:13:48.720 government the information is based on open source reporting and a reliable 00:13:46.800 --> 00:13:52.399 source within the unmanned aerial systems industry with first and second 00:13:50.959 --> 00:13:57.279 hand access so they conclude and this is more quotes 00:13:54.560 --> 00:14:00.880 that it assesses with high confidence the critical infrastructure and law 00:13:58.639 --> 00:14:04.800 enforcement entities using dji systems are collecting sensitive intelligence 00:14:02.880 --> 00:14:08.399 that the chinese government could use to conduct physical or cyber attacks 00:14:06.959 --> 00:14:13.600 against the united states and its population yeah so dji appears to be 00:14:12.079 --> 00:14:18.959 targeting users with the ability to disrupt critical infrastructure railroads utilities companies that 00:14:16.959 --> 00:14:21.519 provide drinking water weapon storage facilities 00:14:22.880 --> 00:14:29.120 dji's statement though to be clear this is all alleged 00:14:26.800 --> 00:14:33.519 dji statement says that the memo was based on clearly false and misleading 00:14:31.360 --> 00:14:37.680 claims um 00:14:35.040 --> 00:14:41.760 shortly after however dji released a local data mode which allows users to 00:14:40.079 --> 00:14:48.160 cut off drones from all internet activity which they probably should what does my 00:14:45.839 --> 00:14:52.000 drone need to do on the internet no clue especially in terms of reporting like 00:14:50.240 --> 00:14:56.480 camera and telemetry data yeah especially when i'm recording or like 00:14:54.639 --> 00:15:01.360 other than when i'm performing a firmware update yeah 00:14:58.560 --> 00:15:05.519 um or i could that should only be down i could see it reporting something like if 00:15:03.760 --> 00:15:08.959 i'm flying in a no-fly zone like that kind of stuff's coming but again that 00:15:07.440 --> 00:15:13.120 shouldn't be going to a foreign government that's for sure that should 00:15:11.040 --> 00:15:17.279 be going to one that has jurisdiction over the area that i am flying it should 00:15:14.959 --> 00:15:19.680 be like when you have to would you have to register your drone or something now 00:15:18.720 --> 00:15:27.199 right so that should be like when you register your drone they like get a key or 00:15:23.839 --> 00:15:28.880 something yup um 00:15:27.199 --> 00:15:33.680 wow pretty brutal so now the ice memo did 00:15:31.760 --> 00:15:37.920 focus on the drones used by companies and institutions not the drones flown by 00:15:36.079 --> 00:15:41.839 hobbyists so i don't know if you necessarily have to stop you know 00:15:40.240 --> 00:15:45.120 hovering your drone in the bedroom to film yourself making a sex tape or 00:15:43.440 --> 00:15:50.480 whatever um i wouldn't recommend that either either 00:15:47.279 --> 00:15:51.680 way yeah blades yeah you know blades and 00:15:50.480 --> 00:15:56.639 penises um not a good combination unless you don't 00:15:54.399 --> 00:15:59.920 want to have kids anymore like me but there's better ways to do that yeah yeah 00:15:58.959 --> 00:16:04.639 oh speaking of which i know you wanted to 00:16:02.320 --> 00:16:10.079 talk about stuff that's on Floatplane it's hilarious 00:16:07.120 --> 00:16:15.120 okay it's

recently on the 00:16:56.480 --> 00:17:01.920 elgato stream deck i have so many problems with that thing 00:17:00.560 --> 00:17:06.640 i've watched this video yet but we'll see um let's see what else we got here we got 00:17:05.199 --> 00:17:11.120 some exclusive stuff we toured the server room that was pretty cool well 00:17:08.640 --> 00:17:15.600 where's the Channel Super Fun one uh oh it's coming it's coming uh oh that's 00:17:12.959 --> 00:17:20.600 already up on youtube oh there it is uh triton 700 super powerful super thin 00:17:18.079 --> 00:17:27.280 gaming laptop very cool and there it is cruel pregnancy prank 00:17:25.280 --> 00:17:30.960 gone wrong it's amazing how many people are giving us crap about that gone wrong 00:17:29.679 --> 00:17:36.160 in the title i would hope 00:17:33.039 --> 00:17:38.799 it's fairly obvious that that like 00:17:36.160 --> 00:17:42.960 naming scheme is is played out at this point and that 00:17:40.480 --> 00:17:47.600 anyone doing it now and people are still really doing it almost 2018 exactly 00:17:44.960 --> 00:17:51.600 anyone doing it now is clearly just being ironic it's tongue-in-cheek it's 00:17:50.160 --> 00:17:55.280 just it's silly we all know it's dumb gone sexual gone 00:17:53.919 --> 00:18:01.039 wrong i don't think we've done a prank in a while yeah so it's kind of a show back to like 00:17:58.559 --> 00:18:04.799 when youtube used to be pranked to prank to basically yeah like i just i 00:18:03.600 --> 00:18:10.799 there were a couple people who seemed legit upset about it no no it's just it's it's a joke it's just a it's just a 00:18:08.640 --> 00:18:15.520 joke bro it's just a joke it's just a joke bro it's just a joke um that was 00:18:13.200 --> 00:18:20.799 the worst in all seriousness this wasn't a very funny joke 00:18:17.120 --> 00:18:22.880 it was hilarious as an external person 00:18:20.799 --> 00:18:27.760 so there are nothing to do it is a it is a two-prank video yeah so should i 00:18:26.400 --> 00:18:32.080 should i you know i'll say what the first one is because that one's right at 00:18:29.919 --> 00:18:37.760 the beginning okay okay so the first prank is when 00:18:34.880 --> 00:18:42.799 Yvonne got pregnant with our third um she and i got together and we were 00:18:40.559 --> 00:18:47.200 talking about how guys are not that observant like women can 00:18:45.200 --> 00:18:50.320 tell that each other are pregnant like basically immediately i don't know how 00:18:48.880 --> 00:18:52.960 they do it it's like they can smell it on each other or something you called me 00:18:52.000 --> 00:18:56.400 on the phone yeah oh okay well i'll keep doing this 00:18:55.039 --> 00:19:03.919 uh so women can tell right away and i was like no there's no way guys would notice like that's why we never ask like 00:19:01.120 --> 00:19:06.720 we never bring it up because we can't tell the difference between 00:19:05.600 --> 00:19:11.200 like eight months pregnant and fat and you 00:19:09.280 --> 00:19:14.960 don't want to run that risk because you're like there's no way to win right 00:19:13.760 --> 00:19:20.720 and she was like no they'll be able to tell i was like they will not be able to tell and they certainly won't say 00:19:18.080 --> 00:19:23.760 anything and so she and i kind of made a little bet i was like they won't be able 00:19:22.640 --> 00:19:28.400 to tell even if and and they'll think that it's 00:19:26.080 --> 00:19:31.280 me being mean if i'm like constantly going after you about how you're getting 00:19:30.160 --> 00:19:36.799 fat there's they won't be able to tell they'll just be like Linus is an ass 00:19:35.360 --> 00:19:42.080 they will not figure out that you're actually pregnant and you have to 00:19:38.480 --> 00:19:44.799 consider that while he's being an ass to 00:19:42.080 --> 00:19:51.200 his wife who's also an employee of the company that we all work at he's also 00:19:47.360 --> 00:19:54.080 everyone's boss yup yup it's a really 00:19:51.200 --> 00:19:58.400 weird dynamic and this is great i would ask people like do you think do 00:19:56.160 --> 00:20:03.120 you think Yvonne's getting fat meanwhile she has actually gained 15 pounds 00:20:01.360 --> 00:20:06.360 because she is pregnant they'd be like oh no 00:20:08.160 --> 00:20:15.440 anyway there's actually a part two to the prank that is 00:20:12.799 --> 00:20:19.760 not funny at all but um no it's actually hilarious it's a good 00:20:16.880 --> 00:20:23.360 video go go sign up for Floatplane having having the second part's not 00:20:21.600 --> 00:20:27.200 funny though having nothing to do with it it is 00:20:25.120 --> 00:20:31.039 hilarious but like there are certain points in 00:20:28.400 --> 00:20:34.559 time where i was like oh this is oh so this is getting bad there you go 00:20:32.880 --> 00:20:38.480 there you go guys go sign up for flow plane one week early access ish ish it's 00:20:37.280 --> 00:20:42.159 not always a week but it's like definitely early access also beautiful 00:20:40.960 --> 00:20:46.320 videos with top tier audio quality top tier audio 00:20:44.240 --> 00:20:50.880 just wanna drop that out there all right speaking of top tier quality why don't 00:20:48.080 --> 00:20:53.760 we talk about sc2 mitch's post on the forum 00:20:51.919 --> 00:20:57.360 uh the original article here is from astute gaming 00:20:55.760 --> 00:21:02.640 a site that i've never heard of but neither but sure one there you go 00:20:59.919 --> 00:21:07.840 and uh the headline here oh the headline oh 00:21:04.720 --> 00:21:10.039 ea sports ufc 3 the single most 00:21:07.840 --> 00:21:13.600 egregious implementation of microtransactions to 00:21:12.480 --> 00:21:18.960 date so bad whoa have you read any about this at all 00:21:17.760 --> 00:21:23.360 you know this is this is not my deal i'm not a 00:21:21.039 --> 00:21:26.320 ufc guy i'm not an ea sports guy and i rarely even have time for gaming and i 00:21:25.280 --> 00:21:32.080 definitely don't pay for microtransactions so i tend to pretty much ignore them wherever they exist so 00:21:30.320 --> 00:21:35.440 it offends me probably less than other people because this is a game i was 00:21:33.840 --> 00:21:40.799 never going to play from a company whose game i was never going to put it i should still offend you okay hit me 00:21:39.440 --> 00:21:46.240 reasons why i should still offend you no no no no no no no run run through what it is okay run through what it is right 00:21:43.679 --> 00:21:50.640 off the top every single technique ability fighter stat roll all of it is 00:21:49.120 --> 00:21:56.240 in quad is entirely acquired and upgraded 00:21:53.039 --> 00:21:56.240 through a loot box system 00:21:57.120 --> 00:22:02.720 okay oh where's the question you can't 00:22:00.159 --> 00:22:06.080 actually like buy a fighter pressing the square button apparently we're going for 00:22:04.400 --> 00:22:09.840 playstation here pressing a square button to throw a punch at an opponent 00:22:07.840 --> 00:22:16.159 the simplest and most obvious mechanic in an mma game will do more damage if 00:22:13.039 --> 00:22:16.159 players have paid money 00:22:16.240 --> 00:22:24.320 in an online pvp game it will do more 00:22:20.000 --> 00:22:24.320 damage if players have paid money 00:22:24.960 --> 00:22:31.520 so good microtransactions are also the 00:22:28.080 --> 00:22:33.600 only means of acquiring perks and boosts 00:22:31.520 --> 00:22:38.799 perks are powerful abilities that can be equipped for a small number of fights 00:22:35.840 --> 00:22:43.919 before expiring and boosts are temporary enhancements that offer endurance boosts 00:22:41.520 --> 00:22:48.080 and durability bonuses meaning you can fight longer you can take less damage 00:22:46.640 --> 00:22:51.440 and you can hit harder which is literally the entire game 00:22:52.799 --> 00:22:58.799 boom so good 00:22:56.240 --> 00:23:02.559 so basically ea is saying that ufc 00:23:01.200 --> 00:23:05.120 gamer fans 00:23:05.360 --> 00:23:09.760 are just 00:23:08.480 --> 00:23:13.919 endless like like money teats that they can suck 00:23:12.559 --> 00:23:19.440 on pretty much does that sound like about what ea 00:23:17.200 --> 00:23:22.640 apparently thinks so yeah they're their audience here and you know what the 00:23:20.559 --> 00:23:28.080 interesting thing is when we when we rolled out the coupon digging shirt 00:23:25.039 --> 00:23:30.720 that was because of ubisoft i know 00:23:28.080 --> 00:23:34.480 but they've like taken turns well yeah because ea was like always crap like the 00:23:32.960 --> 00:23:39.520 keep on digging was only relevant because ubisoft's crap-ness was like 00:23:37.280 --> 00:23:43.440 kind of a new thing like ea i mean when was the last time 00:23:41.760 --> 00:23:47.679 oh no because i remember like at that time we did actually have some positive 00:23:45.120 --> 00:23:50.720 ea deadlines yeah so they've switched and like like 00:23:49.520 --> 00:23:55.919 ubisoft is not doing everything right right now 00:23:53.440 --> 00:23:59.840 yeah there's some extremely valid complaints to be made about certain 00:23:57.360 --> 00:24:04.080 games of theirs like for honor uh but they also launched uh the south park 00:24:02.159 --> 00:24:07.679 game south park game was very fun it's quite a long game lots of content in it 00:24:06.159 --> 00:24:11.679 i haven't heard many people complaining about that all the negative reviews that i've seen 00:24:10.159 --> 00:24:15.840 on steam because there's quite a few of them are people going why the heck do i 00:24:13.440 --> 00:24:19.520 need uplay that's not a new problem that's a consistent that's been around 00:24:17.600 --> 00:24:22.880 dumb problems it is a dumb problem but it has existed for a long time i should 00:24:21.039 --> 00:24:26.400 play it did that just come out fairly recently there's nothing like 00:24:24.480 --> 00:24:30.000 sticker truth right it's extremely similar to good truth oh cool it's like 00:24:28.000 --> 00:24:33.520 basically the same game okay yeah it's just a different story yeah i'll just go 00:24:31.279 --> 00:24:37.760 play like like the overworld is essentially identical well yeah i mean 00:24:35.440 --> 00:24:41.039 so yeah but like even town in colorado what do you want yeah you want to make a 00:24:39.200 --> 00:24:45.760 new town in colorado and you can't redo the art style because it's south park so 00:24:43.279 --> 00:24:50.240 like it's it's like the same thing and you do the same thing where you go from 00:24:47.440 --> 00:24:53.279 like house to house which i don't know there's only so many houses 00:24:51.600 --> 00:24:57.120 yeah yeah but like it is a very good game it's 00:24:55.120 --> 00:25:00.640 funny yeah okay they said it has a completely different 00:24:58.400 --> 00:25:04.000 combat system uh i don't even remember the previous one but yeah it's not it's 00:25:02.720 --> 00:25:08.159 not like super next level or anything sure i 00:25:06.000 --> 00:25:12.159 would recommend playing it on as hard of the difficulties yeah yeah sticker truth 00:25:10.720 --> 00:25:18.480 is pretty easy yeah um okay cool but like it's it's 00:25:16.960 --> 00:25:22.320 what do we even say about this there's like nothing to say you can't defend it 00:25:20.640 --> 00:25:25.200 no you like you can't even play devil's advocate and be like oh well you know 00:25:23.919 --> 00:25:30.480 maybe if no not at all and like this is this this 00:25:28.159 --> 00:25:34.480 ties in with there's battlefront issues going on right now 00:25:31.840 --> 00:25:38.159 while that's going on they somehow thought it was okay 00:25:36.080 --> 00:25:41.840 to throw a beta keys for this game with this already implemented and this being 00:25:40.000 --> 00:25:45.120 the style they take the micro transactions out of battlefront 2 and 00:25:43.279 --> 00:25:49.360 then what just assume that everyone's going to be super okay with ufc like oh 00:25:47.600 --> 00:25:53.360 different target audience they're not even going to bring it up i don't think 00:25:50.799 --> 00:25:59.279 that's going to be a thing what is my hold on oh man yes mom oh boy hey hi i 00:25:57.600 --> 00:26:02.480 wanted to say goodbye to you because i'll be gone for three weeks

can talk to my son once in a while yeah no problem 00:27:17.760 --> 00:27:20.760 thanks 00:27:23.679 --> 00:27:30.480 okay uh so let's jump into our sponsors sponsor number one spectrum which 00:27:28.480 --> 00:27:34.240 classes do you want today uh oh i'll just go straight up with these so 00:27:32.240 --> 00:27:38.880 spectrum staring at a monitor all day can be hard on your eyes over time and 00:27:36.559 --> 00:27:44.480 spectrum is an affordable solution to help you keep from your eyes getting 00:27:41.120 --> 00:27:46.799 fatigued there are software solutions to 00:27:44.480 --> 00:27:50.159 reducing the amount of blue light that goes from your monitor into your eyes 00:27:48.720 --> 00:27:54.640 like flux and twilight but they don't give you the same kind of filtering that 00:27:52.159 --> 00:27:58.399 an actual piece of glass or two pieces if you have two eyes would 00:27:56.960 --> 00:28:03.799 they have many features including that they are stylish um they are 00:28:04.399 --> 00:28:10.080 you like well yeah that's what they do yeah no you wait you know what they do right 00:28:08.559 --> 00:28:13.360 yeah yeah yeah okay so basically they're like a yellow tinted len 00:28:11.840 --> 00:28:17.279 oh actually you know what i never noticed this 00:28:14.880 --> 00:28:21.039 before there was a there was a pair that i was wearing years ago like these 00:28:18.799 --> 00:28:24.480 yellow glasses are not an entirely new concept there was a pair i was wearing 00:28:22.320 --> 00:28:27.200 years ago and the reason i stopped using it was because even though i did find 00:28:25.919 --> 00:28:34.000 that it was more comfortable over the course of the day was it had a slight magnification on it spectrum has 00:28:30.960 --> 00:28:35.919 absolutely nailed this 00:28:34.000 --> 00:28:40.159 no magnification whatsoever at least on this particular 00:28:38.320 --> 00:28:44.320 pair uh well i don't notice any on this one either so that's pretty nice um 00:28:42.240 --> 00:28:48.640 anyway it's high quality product one year warranty and extremely durable and 00:28:46.799 --> 00:28:52.320 they have very low color distortion so they're trying to block the high energy 00:28:49.919 --> 00:28:57.440 blue light while keeping other colors as similar as possible so you can check 00:28:54.799 --> 00:29:02.080 them out at spectrum oops you can check them out at 00:28:58.520 --> 00:29:04.720 spectrumglasses.com collection prospects 00:29:02.080 --> 00:29:09.360 and uh you can get 10 off using offer code Linus 00:29:07.679 --> 00:29:15.279 not bad i'm going to keep wearing these yeah next up we've got 00:29:13.039 --> 00:29:20.000 oh what is this 00:29:16.559 --> 00:29:22.399 this has happened a handful of times 00:29:20.000 --> 00:29:26.399 and people always like people always go tinfoil hat on this kind of stuff when 00:29:24.240 --> 00:29:28.640 it happens but uh have you did you watch our video about this 00:29:27.679 --> 00:29:33.760 the the answer once but no i didn't interesting okay so this has happened a 00:29:32.159 --> 00:29:38.480 handful of times where we with no 00:29:36.000 --> 00:29:43.039 no intention of actually ever working together we've done a review of a 00:29:40.799 --> 00:29:47.840 product in this case it was the m cable from marsai 00:29:44.799 --> 00:29:49.919 a product that claims to improve the 00:29:47.840 --> 00:29:55.360 image quality of a device that it's attached to 00:29:52.799 --> 00:30:00.399 i didn't see this video okay so many songs going off please explain it's over 00:29:57.520 --> 00:30:04.960 a hundred dollars okay it's 150 bucks okay for an m cable yep 00:30:02.480 --> 00:30:09.440 and what they claim well you can see what they claim i'm reserving judgment 00:30:06.960 --> 00:30:14.480 because they only take sponsors pixel and graphics rejuvenation 00:30:11.760 --> 00:30:19.120 advanced contextual anti-aliasing contrast and detail enhancement lag free 00:30:17.200 --> 00:30:22.960 real-time processing and an automatic 00:30:20.720 --> 00:30:26.720 movie mode they claim 00:30:24.240 --> 00:30:30.559 and it works so inside the cable see how there's a 00:30:28.480 --> 00:30:35.679 usb connection yes i did see that it is actually a powered signal processor and 00:30:33.760 --> 00:30:41.760 i saw on the t on the tv end of the cable is like huge yep so so it actually 00:30:39.200 --> 00:30:45.760 works particularly well for certain applications uh one of which is anime so 00:30:44.559 --> 00:30:50.559 i think you're holding the cinema edition does a great job of like low 00:30:48.799 --> 00:30:55.840 resolution anime collections you got a bunch of like 480p anime 00:30:53.760 --> 00:31:00.960 it cleans up a lot of the lines a lot of banding that 2006 warcraft video i got 00:30:58.559 --> 00:31:07.600 uh no that so there's a limit to the tech um so we went uh oh oh we hooked it 00:31:04.080 --> 00:31:09.760 up with like original unreal oh yeah it 00:31:07.600 --> 00:31:12.399 looked really good um 00:31:11.600 --> 00:31:16.799 ah the m cable cinema is actually apparently also great for streaming 00:31:15.440 --> 00:31:21.039 content that isn't something that we tested extensively in ours but we did 00:31:19.039 --> 00:31:26.159 take a look at a lot of down-sampled content and it managed to do a really 00:31:23.919 --> 00:31:30.000 good job you guys can't see it because it's way too small but up in this corner 00:31:27.919 --> 00:31:34.080 and i'm sure if you go to their website um which is probably on 00:31:33.039 --> 00:31:38.559 green marsai inc.com it shows that there's 00:31:36.799 --> 00:31:43.360 like a processor and stuff going on within the cable sub one millisecond leg 00:31:40.960 --> 00:31:48.080 we did not notice any discernible leg even in like 00:31:45.600 --> 00:31:52.000 uh you know crt optimized games like super mario world um it's pretty awesome 00:31:50.559 --> 00:31:57.840 and it's even supports frame rates up to 1080p 120 so you can legitimately game 00:31:55.120 --> 00:32:01.440 on the gaming edition here and uh yeah you guys you guys should probably check 00:31:59.840 --> 00:32:06.399 it out the the best use cases we found for it were older 00:32:03.679 --> 00:32:11.600 consoles but not too old so you don't want something like a nest but something 00:32:08.559 --> 00:32:13.600 like an n64 playstation playstation 00:32:11.600 --> 00:32:17.120 makes sense actually yeah you can clean up the quality of it a fair bit because 00:32:15.039 --> 00:32:22.799 to be fair a nest is already pretty clean old anime yeah um streamed 00:32:20.720 --> 00:32:26.320 video i'm oh sorry oh oh that's where i got confused by streams 00:32:24.640 --> 00:32:30.240 i don't necessarily mean live streaming although it would help with that but any 00:32:28.320 --> 00:32:34.480 kind of internet video where it's like pretty good but a little bit of tidy up 00:32:32.559 --> 00:32:39.600 would probably not be a bad idea it's great for that guess what vr 00:32:37.120 --> 00:32:42.799 lots of people are using it for vr because the displays are low resolution 00:32:41.279 --> 00:32:46.559 and it cleans up the image a little bit yeah um and apparently the results are 00:32:45.120 --> 00:32:51.760 fantastic though i actually haven't tried that personally yet it's interesting how like a type of 00:32:49.840 --> 00:32:56.480 content is specifically better that actually makes sense so check them out 00:32:53.760 --> 00:33:00.960 at marsai inc.com this is one of those situations where we intended to do a 00:32:58.320 --> 00:33:05.200 useless tech over a hundred ended up spending Anthony spent an 00:33:02.799 --> 00:33:09.440 entire week because we knew we couldn't come out and say this thing is really 00:33:06.640 --> 00:33:12.880 great unless we absolutely proved it like if we were going to come 00:33:10.960 --> 00:33:17.200 out and say it's it's junk that would be easy because we've done that before we 00:33:14.480 --> 00:33:23.279 made a video on the 1 000 like silver HDMI cable based on that 00:33:20.399 --> 00:33:27.519 their claims were bs which they obviously were yeah and that's easy 00:33:25.679 --> 00:33:31.679 that's like cheap easy content so we were intending to do more cheap easy 00:33:29.279 --> 00:33:35.440 content and instead and you got i screwed paid someone for an entire week 00:33:33.760 --> 00:33:43.760 to make a video but then they turned around and now they're sponsoring the lan show so i guess that worked out okay 00:33:38.799 --> 00:33:45.200 um all right last sponsor they're back 00:33:43.760 --> 00:33:51.200 i'm gonna do something hot this week by the way someone said their background looks fake it's not are that 00:33:49.360 --> 00:33:56.799 i can like pick things up from yeah i'm going to type i'm going to type on this 00:33:52.960 --> 00:33:56.799 underwood the keys don't come back up 00:33:57.440 --> 00:34:04.559 there you go this is like the world's most convincing that's 00:34:02.000 --> 00:34:10.320 that's my con oh it's out of the frame convincing i think this is an 00:34:07.360 --> 00:34:13.760 NVIDIA ammo box why don't we have it showing the top secret 00:34:12.000 --> 00:34:16.960 it's the wrong way around because it's a secret you dunk 00:34:15.359 --> 00:34:21.520 oh no i don't i don't know i don't know it's just so much cooler all right all 00:34:20.399 --> 00:34:25.440 right i'll put the top secret there's the NVIDIA crowbar too 00:34:23.520 --> 00:34:28.480 yeah that's that's hidden there's a lot of secret cool things around that was 00:34:26.960 --> 00:34:34.960 the uh that was the container that anyone who reviewed the uh gtx 590 yeah 00:34:32.879 --> 00:34:38.320 yeah got the card in and it was such a terrible shipping container my first one 00:34:36.720 --> 00:34:42.240 was broken because they just put like packing peanuts and like an anti-static bag in 00:34:41.520 --> 00:34:48.560 there and it's just a metal container there's no like there's no shock absorption 00:34:46.560 --> 00:34:54.320 so my card was totally broken so we're in the chat wow cgi has come a long way 00:34:50.800 --> 00:34:56.079 yeah oh you dicks um 00:34:54.320 --> 00:34:59.359 all right what do you want today uh we're going we're going hot you can 00:34:58.160 --> 00:35:03.200 do whatever you want but i'm going with the ghost peppers ghost pepper buffalo 00:35:01.680 --> 00:35:08.560 sauce did you do it last week no i went i went 00:35:05.680 --> 00:35:11.359 i ate an entire pack of the maple maybe we both said we were like going to do it 00:35:10.079 --> 00:35:15.119 or i said i was going to do it and i don't think either of us did it so yeah 00:35:15.520 --> 00:35:22.880 oh i'm preparing myself these guys really do make freaking hot 00:35:20.960 --> 00:35:28.400 jerky and not just jerky they also make barbecue sauce hot sauce and a spice rub 00:35:26.560 --> 00:35:32.800 so their carolina reaper hot sauce uses one of the hottest peppers in the world 00:35:31.359 --> 00:35:36.000 the jalapeno no i'm just kidding the carolina reaper 00:35:34.640 --> 00:35:40.880 their jerky is made with great ingredients without nitrates or preservatives and the goal is to create 00:35:39.280 --> 00:35:44.400 a snack that is full of flavor and spice that's not bad for you 00:35:42.720 --> 00:35:48.960 it's definitely full of flavor and it's definitely full of spices i'm starting with a small piece i'm working 00:35:46.720 --> 00:35:52.720 my way up to it today they've got 13 different flavors of 00:35:50.320 --> 00:35:55.359 jerky i'm gonna regret that was some of the favorites did you eat the whole 00:35:53.680 --> 00:35:59.920 thing yep oh being the sriracha bacon maple 00:35:56.800 --> 00:36:01.680 buffalo bacon and traditional flavors 00:35:59.920 --> 00:36:05.359 i'm partial to the mojo me too and the uh 00:36:04.320 -->

white and black 00:36:12.240 --> 00:36:17.760 package that's really good whatever the one with the white and 00:36:15.280 --> 00:36:21.760 black package anyway use offer code LTT to save 10 on their products at the link 00:36:20.560 --> 00:36:24.800 below sea salt uh what was it something pepper 00:36:23.680 --> 00:36:29.280 cracked pepper and sea salt that one's really good 00:36:27.200 --> 00:36:33.280 okay i'm gonna keep working on this i'm i'm going slow and steady wins the 00:36:31.280 --> 00:36:38.000 race man Windows 10 is bringing tabs to every 00:36:36.400 --> 00:36:43.119 microsoft is bringing tabs to every Windows 10 app the spice flip that 00:36:40.640 --> 00:36:45.760 around on me nona hexa was this posted this on the forum 00:36:46.079 --> 00:36:51.359 microsoft is planning to add tabs like the ones in your web browser 00:36:49.839 --> 00:36:56.480 to apps and Windows 10 allowing you to group apps together 00:36:53.520 --> 00:37:00.480 they're calling this feature sets so say you're working on a word document 00:36:58.240 --> 00:37:05.119 you need to research data on the web or grab notes from powerpoint you can 00:37:02.079 --> 00:37:06.800 create sets or tabs of these tasks in a 00:37:05.119 --> 00:37:10.880 single window honestly i think this is actually pretty 00:37:08.240 --> 00:37:15.119 sick yeah that sounds great i really like this because often times 00:37:12.560 --> 00:37:20.720 i'll have a few different things that are for one thing 00:37:18.720 --> 00:37:24.079 honestly my preferred method is just to have more monitor space so i can have it 00:37:22.880 --> 00:37:31.119 all open at the same time you're gonna have Windows 7 anyway that's so 8.1 00:37:28.160 --> 00:37:34.320 are you running 8.1 okay yeah yeah okay i'm excited i wish this wasn't 00:37:32.960 --> 00:37:37.599 news because i wish this was a thing ages ago but i'm not going to be down on 00:37:36.079 --> 00:37:42.880 them for like doing something good so it would also be really cool if like on the 00:37:40.160 --> 00:37:42.880 taskbar at the bottom 00:37:44.160 --> 00:37:49.839 you could have your set icon down there so you could like click on it and then 00:37:48.160 --> 00:37:53.200 it would bring up the multiple things instead of having it all in one because 00:37:51.599 --> 00:37:56.240 oftentimes i want to copy between them and read one thing while i'm typing one 00:37:54.960 --> 00:38:01.760 thing and having it all in a set actually isn't very conducive to that but 00:37:59.760 --> 00:38:06.240 it'll still be really nice and helpful except not for me so oh well although 00:38:04.560 --> 00:38:09.760 8.1 is getting painful because i think it's like less than 10 of people are 00:38:08.000 --> 00:38:14.720 using it so like compatibility for my platform is 00:38:11.520 --> 00:38:14.720 like really not great 00:38:15.040 --> 00:38:21.119 so file explorer even notepad and they'll eventually be 00:38:18.720 --> 00:38:25.119 extending to app that have custom title bars like photoshop um and they're 00:38:23.440 --> 00:38:28.880 aiming to let iphone and Android users start sets and then resume them on a pc 00:38:27.280 --> 00:38:31.880 or vice versa oh i'm getting my spicy hiccups 00:38:32.079 --> 00:38:36.480 all right um 00:38:37.200 --> 00:38:41.760 this is pretty bad this was posted by hey yo on the forum 00:38:43.359 --> 00:38:49.040 websites use your CPU to mine cryptocurrency 00:38:46.480 --> 00:38:52.320 even when you close your browser that's new well 00:38:50.480 --> 00:38:56.320 yeah like we've heard of we talked about the pirate bay yep and another one i 00:38:54.560 --> 00:38:59.760 don't remember who it was but another one 00:38:57.760 --> 00:39:04.720 but this is new it's it's always it's always been kind of a 00:39:01.920 --> 00:39:09.280 short-term thing because it's only lasted um 00:39:06.960 --> 00:39:13.200 while you were on that page yeah luckily for these websites a lot of people just 00:39:10.800 --> 00:39:19.520 leave things open in tabs wow look at this so they've got a pop under 00:39:16.400 --> 00:39:21.280 that's opening up another tab 00:39:19.520 --> 00:39:26.560 that is running this in the background so you see once they close it the CPU 00:39:23.599 --> 00:39:26.560 usage goes away 00:39:26.839 --> 00:39:34.800 wow you can still close it so one researcher recently documented 2 00:39:32.240 --> 00:39:41.599 500 sites actively running crypto mining code in visitors browsers 00:39:38.320 --> 00:39:43.680 that's a lot of sites actually yeah 00:39:41.599 --> 00:39:47.200 that's pretty brutal i wonder what 00:39:45.040 --> 00:39:51.359 these sites are though so basically in a nutshell um 00:39:52.160 --> 00:39:59.040 so the one that they're focused on is mining monero so this is like 00:39:56.880 --> 00:40:01.680 i don't know i think everyone should be offended by this like some people might 00:40:00.320 --> 00:40:06.720 not think it's that big of a deal but this is using your electricity and your 00:40:04.000 --> 00:40:11.040 CPU resources so like your investment to just make money from this site 00:40:08.320 --> 00:40:15.680 cranking your CPU and it's potentially making your CPU run really hot which can 00:40:13.440 --> 00:40:18.800 potentially reduce its lifespan especially if you're on a mobile device 00:40:17.200 --> 00:40:23.359 and speaking of a mobile device if you're on something that's battery 00:40:20.320 --> 00:40:25.119 powered this is going to destroy your 00:40:23.359 --> 00:40:29.839 battery life if it's a technique that's being used on any sites that you visit 00:40:27.200 --> 00:40:29.839 regularly 00:40:31.760 --> 00:40:37.440 right now the technique works on the latest version of chrome running on the 00:40:35.520 --> 00:40:40.640 latest versions of Windows 7 and Windows 10. at the moment no indication that 00:40:39.200 --> 00:40:46.720 it's being used on other browsers or operating systems so your incompatibility state of the day 00:40:44.560 --> 00:40:51.920 that's hilarious freaking brilliant 00:40:49.920 --> 00:40:55.839 it's the apple approach you know we are secure because no one's making viruses 00:40:53.680 --> 00:40:59.200 for us you know what's interesting is that that's not in the dock have you 00:40:57.280 --> 00:41:03.359 heard about that uh yeah i did see that hilarious you know what's interesting is 00:41:01.119 --> 00:41:07.760 our render server like the one that does our final export before we upload yeah 00:41:06.720 --> 00:41:12.560 almost never errors out on a render in fact i'm 00:41:10.240 --> 00:41:15.520 not aware of it ever having done it Windows 8.1 00:41:15.599 --> 00:41:20.359 it's the uh embedded version the Windows yeah 00:41:21.040 --> 00:41:27.680 all right dude messaged me today it's it's like the third a few days ago it's like the 00:41:25.760 --> 00:41:32.079 third year anniversary of the like Windows 9 thing 00:41:29.680 --> 00:41:36.640 oh really cool yeah so this is sort of a big deal um 00:41:35.359 --> 00:41:41.839 if you're into like that sort of thing but 00:41:38.720 --> 00:41:43.599 our formal emp or our former employer oh 00:41:41.839 --> 00:41:49.200 yeah uh has 00:41:46.240 --> 00:41:52.079 here we go where is this this is kind of crazy 00:41:50.480 --> 00:41:58.640 yeah so here hold on i'm gonna bring this up 00:41:55.440 --> 00:42:01.359 search civil by party name 00:41:58.640 --> 00:42:03.839 so netlink computer inc um 00:42:04.079 --> 00:42:09.119 oh wait hold on so here's some here so here you can i 00:42:08.079 --> 00:42:15.760 actually didn't even know you can do this of course that makes sense so you can search for uh lawsuits or like you 00:42:13.040 --> 00:42:19.839 can search for court cases by party name it's a net link computer inc uh small 00:42:18.079 --> 00:42:25.119 claims small claims small claims small claims uh four times over the uh 00:42:23.359 --> 00:42:31.280 over the last uh you know since 2011 and boom 00:42:29.440 --> 00:42:37.040 net link computer inc bora group inc 00:42:33.599 --> 00:42:38.480 the netlink computer inc supreme 00:42:37.040 --> 00:42:45.680 bankruptcy december 1 2017. so this 00:42:42.240 --> 00:42:46.960 just went down uh my formal my former 00:42:45.680 --> 00:42:51.280 employer is i mean is this still up 00:42:50.319 --> 00:42:56.319 oh uh uh 00:42:53.599 --> 00:43:00.880 no i think it's still loading uh 00:42:58.319 --> 00:43:04.720 no no i'm pretty sure it's still loading uh 00:43:01.839 --> 00:43:10.960 oh oh yeah there we go the site's still up i really don't know 00:43:07.680 --> 00:43:13.440 that i would necessarily recommend 00:43:10.960 --> 00:43:16.800 um apparently shopping there though getting your stuff after you buy it has 00:43:15.200 --> 00:43:20.400 been a little bit of an issue recently for a while yeah yep um 00:43:19.440 --> 00:43:24.839 so i yeah i i haven't done any i haven't done any 00:43:23.200 --> 00:43:30.079 uh pre like sort of research here but uh 00:43:28.000 --> 00:43:33.920 i'm heading over to the i'm heading over to the forum 00:43:32.560 --> 00:43:37.760 uh okay 00:43:36.000 --> 00:43:43.520 restructuring okay 00:43:40.000 --> 00:43:45.440 important service announcement 00:43:43.520 --> 00:43:49.680 uh we figured it's time to write a formal post about the restructuring wow 00:43:48.240 --> 00:43:55.119 i'm pretty sure this threat has been pruned because i know that there were 00:43:51.760 --> 00:43:57.440 other things in here before 00:43:55.119 --> 00:43:57.440 huh 00:43:58.400 --> 00:44:00.880 all right 00:44:02.480 --> 00:44:10.480 um ncix supreme bankruptcy confirmed 00:44:08.720 --> 00:44:15.920 okay what is supreme is there sub-supreme bankruptcy i have no idea it 00:44:14.000 --> 00:44:19.200 sounds crazy like 00:44:17.200 --> 00:44:25.520 what but um wow yeah i've had a lot of people 00:44:21.440 --> 00:44:26.880 no buyer two box i did not cause this 00:44:25.520 --> 00:44:30.400 um no i mean that okay i don't know i don't 00:44:28.880 --> 00:44:34.160 know well how much should i talk about right now 00:44:32.000 --> 00:44:39.280 scale of one to ten like a six or six okay like not not that 00:44:37.440 --> 00:44:43.839 high so i left um partly because i saw a great opportunity 00:44:43.040 --> 00:44:48.160 in uh content creation online 00:44:46.160 --> 00:44:52.960 and partly because i had some significant we're 00:44:51.440 --> 00:45:00.560 getting closer to a three fundamental disagreements with senior management um 00:44:58.240 --> 00:45:02.839 okay particularly the owner over 00:45:01.520 --> 00:45:08.319 what exactly we needed to do in terms of our 00:45:05.599 --> 00:45:12.560 direction as a company i also left 00:45:10.560 --> 00:45:16.319 this was a significant part of the reason for my departure i also left 00:45:15.040 --> 00:45:21.839 because the people that i had been mentored by 00:45:19.760 --> 00:45:25.520 there um the people that i had really felt like 00:45:23.040 --> 00:45:29.119 i learned a lot from were departing 00:45:27.119 --> 00:45:35.599 um and they sometimes for very good reasons i'm not 00:45:32.240 --> 00:45:38.640 going to defend the conduct and 00:45:35.599 --> 00:45:41.520 job performance of at least one of them 00:45:38.640 --> 00:45:47.280 but some of them were forced out by extraordinarily 00:45:43.680 --> 00:45:49.119 in my opinion extraordinary poor 00:45:47.280 --> 00:45:54.720 management decisions and that ultimately led me to believe 00:45:51.520 --> 00:45:56.240 that i could do it better 00:45:54.720 --> 00:46:02.319 so i had an opportunity 00:45:58.839 --> 00:46:05.359 and i thought i could do it better and i 00:46:02.319 --> 00:46:06.880 thought that my company made my way 00:46:05.359 --> 00:46:11.440 would be something that would make me happier to get up in the morning and go 00:46:10.240 --> 00:46:15.760 to um it's made me happier well i'm glad to 00:46:13.920 --> 00:46:22.720 hear that uh i know you're having a moment i just wanted to add some comedy yeah thank you 00:46:19.440 --> 00:46:24.720 and that was ultimately why i left i 00:46:22.720 --> 00:46:30.240 didn't agree with the strategy i thought uh and this was something that 00:46:26.720 --> 00:46:32.400 i pitched about six and a half years ago 00:46:30.240 --> 00:46:36.560 i thought the direction for us to go and i mean by us i mean i was at ncix i was 00:46:34.640 --> 00:46:40.000 one of the top product management people there i might have been a category 00:46:37.839 --> 00:46:43.599 manager at that point can't remember um anyway i was basically at or near the 00:46:41.920 --> 00:46:46.480 highest rank that you could really have in the company there before 00:46:45.520 --> 00:46:52.560 um and i don't wanna you know the odds of anyone that this 00:46:50.720 --> 00:46:56.160 might apply to ever watching this stream are pretty low 00:46:53.760 --> 00:47:01.520 but my opinion of some of the people that were hired in senior positions 00:46:59.280 --> 00:47:05.680 couldn't possibly be any lower so you know that was 00:47:03.599 --> 00:47:07.760 that was there were some bad decisions there as well 00:47:06.800 --> 00:47:14.000 um anyway where was i where was i going with this right so the direction that i 00:47:10.960 --> 00:47:15.119 had wanted to go was um to try to get 00:47:14.000 --> 00:47:19.520 acquired and the way to try and get acquired is 00:47:17.200 --> 00:47:25.200 to have some kind of a value that somebody else would want 00:47:21.680 --> 00:47:27.119 and it wasn't going to be the website 00:47:25.200 --> 00:47:31.920 let's be honest um it wasn't going to be the logistics 00:47:30.160 --> 00:47:37.680 system and you know i can't say too much about what ncix had 00:47:35.760 --> 00:47:41.520 because you know i don't want to i don't want to be disrespectful of their 00:47:39.280 --> 00:47:46.720 privacy as a company but i will tell you that 00:47:42.560 --> 00:47:48.400 it wasn't you know robot arms and 00:47:46.720 --> 00:47:52.560 you know robot eyes and automated conveyor belts 00:47:51.520 --> 00:47:58.400 like what state-of-the-art warehouses were doing even back then 00:47:56.079 --> 00:48:02.000 it was not that so it wasn't going to be the warehousing system 00:48:00.480 --> 00:48:05.680 it wasn't going to be the inventory management system i can tell you that 00:48:03.599 --> 00:48:11.920 much it wasn't going to be the um the super 00:48:09.680 --> 00:48:15.760 talented team and there were talented people on it obviously like i was part 00:48:14.240 --> 00:48:20.560 of it i think i was pretty talented there were definitely talented people on 00:48:18.480 --> 00:48:25.839 it but i don't know that that was visible enough externally um and i think 00:48:23.440 --> 00:48:29.599 that you would end up with um a lot of in order to acquire a team you'd have 00:48:27.440 --> 00:48:33.760 ended up with a lot of dead weight um and i don't even necessarily mean in 00:48:31.119 --> 00:48:39.119 terms of people like the locations that we had leased i think at one point there 00:48:35.839 --> 00:48:40.559 were three locations in richmond 00:48:39.119 --> 00:48:44.960 um which is a small city just to give you 00:48:43.040 --> 00:48:51.440 guys some idea of why that wouldn't be a good idea 00:48:46.839 --> 00:48:52.480 um so so so my concept for what we could 00:48:51.440 --> 00:48:58.880 build having seen uh the partnership between NVIDIA with 00:48:56.480 --> 00:49:04.319 the shield and eb games in the states where i think the shield was initially 00:49:00.720 --> 00:49:05.599 only available to preview it at eb games 00:49:04.319 --> 00:49:08.960 in the states and i was like why would they make it exclusive to them and i 00:49:07.520 --> 00:49:14.079 could be remembering some little detail of this wrong maybe it was a nintendo system i don't know whatever the point 00:49:11.839 --> 00:49:18.559 is the reason that they partnered with them was that they still had at that 00:49:15.599 --> 00:49:22.640 time anyway 4 500 locations which has a value 00:49:20.640 --> 00:49:29.520 another thing that i thought could have a value would be a distribution system 00:49:25.920 --> 00:49:31.119 slash business model that combatted one 00:49:29.520 --> 00:49:35.280 of the biggest difficulties of doing business in canada which is extremely 00:49:32.720 --> 00:49:38.720 high shipping cost it deters customers from shopping online 00:49:36.880 --> 00:49:42.720 and it enables brick and mortar to continue to 00:49:40.480 --> 00:49:46.800 be competitive here because shipping a case across the country from newag is 00:49:44.800 --> 00:49:51.760 like seven dollars shipping a case across this country from ncix could be 00:49:48.880 --> 00:49:55.440 as much as 30 40 60 depending on how remote you are so 00:49:53.520 --> 00:49:58.480 you know it was a constant refrain from customers shipping kills the deal you'd 00:49:57.280 --> 00:50:02.880 hear it all the time so the concept that i pitched was like 00:50:00.880 --> 00:50:07.440 an ncix light these would be extremely small stores um 00:50:06.480 --> 00:50:12.079 like maybe 600 to 800 square feet really 00:50:10.240 --> 00:50:16.400 small stores with really small storefronts that were effectively kind 00:50:13.680 --> 00:50:21.920 of ordering kiosks and the idea was that you'd have technical services so you 00:50:19.200 --> 00:50:26.160 could walk into small communities like kamloops and displace the mom and pop 00:50:24.240 --> 00:50:29.599 shops with a trusted brand believe it or not at the time we were a trusted brand 00:50:28.160 --> 00:50:33.680 you could displace those mom and pop shops as a trusted brand you could 00:50:31.359 --> 00:50:37.040 probably cover your lease and your employee overhead 00:50:35.280 --> 00:50:44.160 with the services business that you're doing then you would stock like two skus tops 00:50:41.680 --> 00:50:46.800 of every category so that if someone walked in 00:50:45.359 --> 00:50:51.760 they could build like something basically the computer at any given time 00:50:49.599 --> 00:50:55.920 which is pretty easy to define it's really easy to do so right now you would 00:50:53.920 --> 00:51:02.880 stock assuming that you there is inventory you would stock the 8400 00:50:59.599 --> 00:51:06.160 for Intel and you would stock the uh the 00:51:02.880 --> 00:51:08.240 ryzen 5 1600 or something along those 00:51:06.160 --> 00:51:13.040 lines and then you'd have like a motherboard for each of them you'd have 00:51:10.319 --> 00:51:17.119 an eight gig stick and a 16 gig stick and like obviously multiples of each of 00:51:15.280 --> 00:51:21.040 these but the idea is that if someone just like wanted like the computer right 00:51:19.280 --> 00:51:24.800 now like the bang for the buck sweet one that everyone wants you could just walk 00:51:22.880 --> 00:51:28.640 in and buy it or we would build a system 00:51:26.960 --> 00:51:32.559 and it wouldn't be a complicated system but we would have a network of trucks 00:51:30.640 --> 00:51:37.599 that would crisscross the country constantly between the two locations 00:51:35.040 --> 00:51:42.720 that we had in the west and in the east so that the model would be you can shop 00:51:40.160 --> 00:51:48.400 online and you can ship to your house or we'd have these little tiny low overhead 00:51:45.599 --> 00:51:53.359 locations scattered across the country and you could get free pick up at any 00:51:50.079 --> 00:51:55.680 location and this was well before 00:51:53.359 --> 00:52:00.400 amazon started doing pick up someone in the chat whoa ncx actually sounds really 00:51:57.920 --> 00:52:04.800 cool this was an idea never happened that he was pitching i pitched this this 00:52:02.800 --> 00:52:08.880 is what i wanted to do instead of these monolithic 00:52:06.000 --> 00:52:12.640 high overhead extraordinarily expensive retail stores 00:52:10.319 --> 00:52:17.200 um in order to you know i the writing was on the wall like seven 00:52:14.960 --> 00:52:21.760 years ago amazon was going to kill us all like the people who were paying 00:52:20.400 --> 00:52:28.240 attention knew this already so the idea was to build this 00:52:26.079 --> 00:52:32.720 infrastructure so that when amazon decided to hit the switch and you can 00:52:30.400 --> 00:52:36.800 see now they're running around acquiring people that have infrastructure that 00:52:34.559 --> 00:52:41.680 they like like whole foods the idea was that when they came in they could buy us 00:52:40.319 --> 00:52:46.079 um and that never happened 00:52:44.079 --> 00:52:48.800 if i'd had the resources i think that could have been the way for me to never 00:52:47.359 --> 00:52:52.880 have to work again like if i could have built my like i 00:52:50.720 --> 00:52:56.640 even to go back like if i was the one who had the resources that i have today 00:52:54.800 --> 00:52:59.119 even that might have been a model that i would have pursued i really believed in 00:52:58.000 --> 00:53:05.520 it i thought that it was a great opportunity it's not worth it now 00:53:01.440 --> 00:53:07.599 oh no you'd never make it now no but um 00:53:05.520 --> 00:53:12.880 i should buy ncix and do that i couldn't afford ncix 00:53:09.359 --> 00:53:15.680 not because i i couldn't afford um like 00:53:12.880 --> 00:53:21.119 what ncix's net value is right now but i couldn't afford ncix's overhead the the 00:53:18.400 --> 00:53:24.160 the monthly expenses um even with all the layoffs that they've done there's 00:53:22.880 --> 00:53:29.280 still a lot of employees there's still a lot of buildings there's still a lot of 00:53:26.839 --> 00:53:32.400 inventory um so 00:53:30.319 --> 00:53:38.880 when we didn't do that and when we continued marching down the 00:53:34.960 --> 00:53:40.079 obviously no longer viable big box 00:53:38.880 --> 00:53:45.520 retail path i figured out that i had to get out so 00:53:43.680 --> 00:53:50.000 ultimately the reason that i ended up leaving ncix and taking this guy with me 00:53:48.240 --> 00:53:55.920 and ed with me thanks for coming along bro um 00:53:53.200 --> 00:53:59.680 yeah that i was thinking that five year thing it's actually like seven or 00:53:58.000 --> 00:54:04.800 something or eight or something yeah it's kind of ridiculous so um 00:54:03.359 --> 00:54:10.160 anyway sorry i forget where i was going with that um right so so what happened 00:54:07.520 --> 00:54:13.520 when i left was i had decided to leave and the reason that i was able to take 00:54:11.599 --> 00:54:20.400 the Linus tech tips channel and so to be clear i take no pleasure whatsoever 00:54:17.440 --> 00:54:23.520 in ncix's demise you know and i've seen a lot of horror 00:54:21.760 --> 00:54:28.400 stories online but however they've treated other people um 00:54:26.079 --> 00:54:32.640 everyone there all the way up to steve the owner and mary his wife they have 00:54:30.960 --> 00:54:39.119 always treated me with the utmost kindness and respect um 00:54:34.960 --> 00:54:42.000 i have not had personal bad experiences 00:54:39.119 --> 00:54:45.280 with anyone there from from hr to my colleagues to 00:54:43.599 --> 00:54:48.960 um i shouldn't say everyone there were some there were some some poor just 00:54:47.200 --> 00:54:52.559 hiring decisions made but at the very highest level the at least 00:54:51.040 --> 00:54:56.240 the people that i consider to be at the highest level 00:54:54.079 --> 00:55:02.640 um you know i i take no pleasure from this i learned a lot there like i am 00:54:59.920 --> 00:55:07.119 everything i understand about business what to do right 00:55:04.000 --> 00:55:09.040 what to do wrong um it was ultimately 00:55:07.119 --> 00:55:12.800 from them i i didn't go to school for business management i don't have an mba 00:55:10.880 --> 00:55:17.520 i don't i don't actually have any formal education everything i learned was 00:55:14.960 --> 00:55:22.240 school of hard knocks and ncix was a stupendous proving ground for me 00:55:20.559 --> 00:55:27.760 um so you know 00:55:23.920 --> 00:55:30.160 i take no pleasure in this but um 00:55:27.760 --> 00:55:35.440 uh where was i going with this but uh how you got the channel right how 00:55:32.880 --> 00:55:39.839 i got the channel so so ultimately um i was able right right right so i'm 00:55:37.680 --> 00:55:43.280 i'm very grateful to them for giving me the opportunity to to 00:55:42.240 --> 00:55:49.359 build up this channel and then ultimately take it with me because the deal was 00:55:46.240 --> 00:55:51.200 uh look i'm leaving because i disagree 00:55:49.359 --> 00:55:58.640 with some of the stuff we're doing and you my boss is gone who i loved um 00:55:55.599 --> 00:56:01.760 and that sucks and so i'm out 00:55:58.640 --> 00:56:04.400 so you can either let me walk away to 00:56:01.760 --> 00:56:09.200 another retailer and i mean you know i didn't have four million 00:56:06.480 --> 00:56:13.599 subscribers and a team of you know 19 people that's like a world-class video 00:56:11.920 --> 00:56:17.119 production team like i hadn't built any of this yet yeah we were pretty far from 00:56:15.680 --> 00:56:21.280 it yeah we were a long way away from this but for me personally anyway 00:56:19.839 --> 00:56:25.280 my stock was high enough that i could have walked into literally any 00:56:23.599 --> 00:56:29.920 electronics entity and gone like this and i would have had 00:56:27.920 --> 00:56:33.839 a job so i wasn't concerned about getting a job 00:56:31.359 --> 00:56:37.680 what i was concerned about was building a team and building something and making 00:56:35.920 --> 00:56:41.839 sure that luke and ed who were both out of work if i walked out of there and 00:56:40.160 --> 00:56:47.760 didn't manage to take them with me making sure that they stayed employed so 00:56:44.640 --> 00:56:50.160 the deal was look i'm leaving 00:56:47.760 --> 00:56:53.200 but if we can work out a deal where i take the Linus tech tips youtube channel 00:56:52.400 --> 00:56:59.200 the trademark and any associated assets 00:56:57.119 --> 00:57:01.760 which now that this is going on i'm really happy we did buy the book with a 00:57:00.880 --> 00:57:06.079 lawyer um i'll get to that more later but if i 00:57:04.160 --> 00:57:09.520 take all that stuff with me i'll sign a non-compete for 00:57:07.839 --> 00:57:14.079 i believe it was two years but it ended up getting extended to three and for 00:57:12.000 --> 00:57:17.680 pennies on the dollar i'll come back and i'll continue to support the ncix tech 00:57:16.079 --> 00:57:21.839 tips channel so that you don't have to replace me immediately also i'll give 00:57:19.920 --> 00:57:25.440 you as much notice for my departure as you need so i had originally planned on 00:57:23.680 --> 00:57:28.480 giving somewhere between a month and six weeks notice i ended up giving about 00:57:26.880 --> 00:57:32.160 five months notice um although 00:57:30.640 --> 00:57:35.040 in fairness i phoned in about the last three weeks of it but then i had trained 00:57:33.839 --> 00:57:40.960 my replacements for pretty much everything i didn't really know what to do when it was five months like um yeah 00:57:38.000 --> 00:57:45.839 like i tried okay i tried so the fact that we um the fact that we acquired 00:57:44.000 --> 00:57:51.599 those assets legally is really important because if someone if the um like the 00:57:49.440 --> 00:57:55.839 bankruptcy lawyers if whoever ncix's creditors are were to find that it had 00:57:54.319 --> 00:58:00.240 an asset that was worth a significant amount of money and let me tell you 00:57:58.400 --> 00:58:05.839 Linus tech tips is worth a significant amount of money both 00:58:03.280 --> 00:58:11.040 as a brand and as a youtube channel at this point um although you know no i'm 00:58:09.040 --> 00:58:14.240 not going to say no thanks to ncix but most of that development has been done 00:58:12.480 --> 00:58:18.319 in the five years since we left but if it was found that that asset wasn't 00:58:16.960 --> 00:58:23.040 transferred tidally then it could also be found that 00:58:20.720 --> 00:58:26.559 ncix still had some claim to make against it and then their creditors 00:58:24.799 --> 00:58:30.960 would as well so steve i trusted to never do anything 00:58:28.880 --> 00:58:34.720 untoward with me um 00:58:32.079 --> 00:58:37.599 but creditors creditors all bets are off i really didn't you 00:58:36.559 --> 00:58:43.440 know i didn't think it would come to this i take no pleasure in it but um 00:58:41.839 --> 00:58:48.559 that's what happened and uh yeah for some context there we 00:58:46.079 --> 00:58:52.960 broke off at what 240 000 subscribers something like that yeah we're now at 00:58:50.200 --> 00:58:58.960 4.8 million yep there's kind of been a lot of work done yep we've been we've 00:58:55.040 --> 00:58:58.960 been going pretty hard on it so yeah 00:59:02.240 --> 00:59:07.040 so uh elena's tech tips documentary no 00:59:05.680 --> 00:59:12.640 no that probably won't happen we actually tried to do it behind this like a behind the blow type uh thing here and 00:59:11.119 --> 00:59:16.079 it was a total disaster we brought in a third-party film crew they like shot a 00:59:14.160 --> 00:59:20.400 bunch of stuff then they submitted a rough cut that was 00:59:17.520 --> 00:59:24.400 awful totally unusable uh and then we tried to edit it together ourselves but 00:59:22.160 --> 00:59:29.599 by then our team was like 60 bigger so like different yeah 00:59:27.359 --> 00:59:33.359 like a third of our staff wasn't in the video and yeah it just didn't make sense 00:59:32.160 --> 00:59:35.599 um yeah 00:59:37.280 --> 00:59:42.400 all right so uh what else do we have for topics 00:59:40.400 --> 00:59:46.079 yeah that was wow that was kind of a freaking downer of a topic man it also 00:59:44.480 --> 00:59:49.280 took a long i'm surprised people are still watching 00:59:47.680 --> 00:59:53.520 sheesh let's find something exciting it's pretty interesting yeah i guess so 00:59:51.520 --> 00:59:57.359 it's like learning that before coke came out it was green i'm like i'm like down 00:59:55.599 --> 01:00:02.960 let's just find like something like one cool topic to do and then wow these are 01:00:00.400 --> 01:00:05.760 all terrible um 01:00:07.200 --> 01:00:13.760 oh tinder tinder tests using ai to suggest who to super like 01:00:12.000 --> 01:00:16.960 uh they're testing a new feature called super likable that intermittently 01:00:15.599 --> 01:00:20.880 presents a card on your screen and offers you a bonus super light that can 01:00:18.880 --> 01:00:24.319 be sent to one of four people presented to presented on the card 01:00:22.640 --> 01:00:29.920 the original super like was designed as a way to signal your interest in a potential match was stronger than others 01:00:27.040 --> 01:00:34.400 but users have a limited number per day wow how many of those could you possibly 01:00:31.520 --> 01:00:38.480 need per day wow i'm not i mean like i'm sort of pre online dating so i don't 01:00:36.559 --> 01:00:43.839 really get i wonder if you're in like a social hub sheesh like somewhere like 01:00:40.880 --> 01:00:48.480 like deep like la or san fran if you just like go through a few 01:00:45.599 --> 01:00:52.319 hundred people and you're just like there's many more 01:00:50.319 --> 01:00:55.599 you know what i mean i don't know because i don't feel like

i thought it was kind of interesting because right now they're huge because the switch is like wildly wildly 01:01:14.480 --> 01:01:21.440 successful but at a previous time of them being huge they also tried to roll 01:01:18.160 --> 01:01:24.480 out cereal and this one is not just 01:01:21.440 --> 01:01:26.079 uh cereal the box itself is essentially 01:01:24.480 --> 01:01:29.839 an amiibo you
