so who knows are we live now it is wednesday show time so we've got a great
show for you guys today lots of good topics actually every time yeah people
died which sucks because like no no i mean that sucks too but i meant the
having great topics sucks because we burned through a bunch of time with
inexplicable audio issues because yeah wait what is going on now what
what even is this is this crashed what is what
this uh oh that's pretty neat are we even are
we even like pictures frozen nice that's
real too ah never seen it real cool uh go back to
maine hold on that's working hold on go back to maine yeah click on camera right
click properties can we refresh it uh you have to do it in properties which is
hilarious out loud uh oh no property is available so i think
i think
oh my goodness i think the whole wait wait hold on hold on oh yeah i
don't know people are just saying the screen share worked oh man
oh man feels good feels good
everything feels good right about now i love this uh it's blink oh did we get
something no no i got i got an i got nothing i'm just gonna i'm just gonna
like i'm just gonna add a new one i'm just gonna add like a new a new uh
hold on what am i looking for media source is that what i want no no i don't
want that i want a new
um a new
new video capture device there it is okay add existing
uh avio camera blip blop and
um okay yeah oh i know what that properties
thing didn't work that didn't work okay new idea yeah click on the camera scene
not there yep yeah uh now do it there
yeah oh brilliant brilliant yeah uh no
no no no no deactivate activate yeah sure
okay all right forgot that you had to
nest it so that it would keep its dimensional properties so do we leave
this in the show at this point
or do we spam people's twitch with yet another
notification these are the hard questions
these are the tough questions this is what you guys don't see behind
the camera that we tackle here on the WAN Show to make the best
show all right the greatest show yeah my friends called me
i'm kidding i have no friends
nobody calls me my friends called me they said look you never show up on time
you talk so quiet we can't understand a damn thing you're saying and every once
in a while we're in the middle of a conversation and you just
all right so uh we've got a lot of great topics for you guys today um apple
responds to the iphone slow down fiasco
so does i fix it dropping their iphone battery replacement price oh they're not
a sponsor today to 29.
uh what else we got um so somebody got
swatted which resulted in them dying uh
yeah swatting's not funny by the way no and this was like the person that got
swatted gave a fake address but it was a real address
and then that person that lived at the fake address died so they actually had
nothing to do with the entire situation but we'll talk more about that later and
then someone fell down while playing games in vr
and hit their head on a table and died great week
uh yeah stay tuned after the intro talk about it more
wow that was dark yeah
it's gonna be good
in 10 minutes
on a bot we would script that
like for sure
at like the end okay cool thank you
sponsors
fresh books why why see why is this you have to get the line just above yeah no
i have it it's above it's just not working because
whatever oh you probably have to refresh that too
holy crap obs is not better than xsplit it it
never said it was bad maybe it is better they're they're both they're both not
they both have at this time glaring issues like
they just have different glaring issues we need to just
yeah we need to combine them
yeah except that then we'd end up with all the glare
if you took the automatic game detection from xsplit and you took
most but not all of the ui design from xsplit yeah and put it on top of obs i
think you'd have experienced audio ui is off that's what that's why i said most
abominable this audio ui pretty good adding gain
terrible like here's what i want to know why is it that only vlc
can figure this out okay a volume slider that just goes to 150
why is it that vlc had that going on a
decade ago and literally no one else
has clued into this now people are saying it's quiet except if i laugh it's
really loud yeah that actually just kind of makes sense because my life is really
loud yeah not nothing nothing we can do about that at this point all right yeah
well clean recording suite 2018 at this point you know what
i mean could it come to that maybe like honestly probably not 2018 but maybe not
2018 okay i will promise you it is not
going to happen in 2018. i'm also certain there's people
on the team that would have a hoot trying to make one of those i'm certain
that there's people on the team who are already working on it
stop we need to get the site launched first
okay it's coming it's coming there's some
great things that happen you guys are crazy they're they're awesome you guys
are crazy oh oh first topic this week is
yeah i know i know some people get frustrated with this but there's
literally nothing i can do about it right now um it is a Floatplane topic
because this is officially luke's last week oh
as a lioness media group the employee unceremonious day ever
actually yeah well you got hold on a second nothing
happened you got your you got your five-year award at the christmas dinner which was
a silver medal and i'm not getting a gold one because he's firing me i'm not
firing you yeah i'm being forced to quit if i fire you and i have to give you
several references so he's doing it even the worst way
so he was like here's your silver medal bt dubs can never get a better one
hey hey you can make your own you can make your own medals i'm going to give
myself a gold mine yeah you can make yeah i mean
every float playing medal will be a gold medal Yvonne and i talked about it we
were like like do do we get five-year
like company theoretically you're an employee of the
company because of how it works so you should actually so strictly speaking
yeah i've been employed by Linus media group incorporated yeah for five years
but i was like who awards it to me who awards it to you i think you would award
it to each other but yeah yeah but the come on no i know that's
like i mean the optics of that are like giving yourself an award essentially i
would i wouldn't do it ceremoniously i would just put it on a shelf at home
you know what i mean i see i see it so i would want it so that i could have my own representation of like whatever
right but i'm not gonna like go up to stage and be like i'm such a wonderful
person you know congratulations me
for sticking it out for five years for not quitting myself yeah yeah for
putting up with my horrible boss
for so long he wants to have meetings on mondays and fridays what a crazy person
crazy person um
so no what were we talking about okay so so right so
actually this is a great time to do a little bit of q a about what this
transition means because i know a lot of people have been asking um so the first
question that we have in the chat actually i don't see it there but i'm sure it's coming is luke are you gonna
be on rancho anymore uh sorry i have to interrupt for one second somebody said i
don't think the ceo gets any medals works for me still get medals at float
plane owned uh and that means you don't
brilliant perfect um sorry what what was your what
was your question are you still going to be on WAN Show yeah yeah i'm going to be
on WAN Show next week um i'll almost certainly be on the wen show the week
after that although the week after that is the wench of when we're at ces so
it's always kind of yeah that's that's how it works is
always kind of who knows uncertain but there if if i'm not on that one it's
because of like some random reason not because i don't work for LMG anymore i'm
still gonna be doing LMG stuff i'm still gonna be managing their security that's
lol random um i'm still going to be doing WAN Show um and i'll probably be
on a video here and there we have one that we have planned to film yeah the
year the year-long conclusion yeah you can
stop tweeting me about it oh my god we
know it's just let me it's a low priority yeah i mean okay cause it's
like i had some actor tweet me about it like
they're high profile enough that like i got a notification that they followed me
and they followed me specifically to be like yo when the hell are you doing that
i don't i don't remember who it was but it was like
it was like mr actor the conclusion is install filters where you don't have
fans no no no no hold on it was like no it was like someone like significant i
can't remember because i don't really i don't i'm just saying like if you don't have time to wait for the thing and
you're trying to build a computer just install filters where you don't have fans i don't really know actor people uh
james allen mccoon i'm super bad with uh james in blair
maddie on shameless and jimmy on the walking dead wow yeah oh no i recognize
this guy yeah oh that's cool no so like so so so guy tweets me and he's like yo
yo at Linus tech whatever happened to that year-long pc airflow experiment you
said you were up to last year i'm like we are going to do it just been
busy i'm gonna be that guy gonna be that guy ride you all about it
so giddy up cowboy you spell giddy up wrong but that's okay his skill set is
not about spelling yeah and i'm like okay may not be after ces and he's still
writing me okay i'll allow it this time looking forward to it also oh if you all
need a guest host for ces i know a guy whoa cool i didn't even see that
give them that'd be super cool yeah see jay's two
cents isn't the only youtube tech show
that can like talk to real celebrities
bam yeah it's a really funny thing like how
like like it's weird because we're
clearly like known like you were talking about going to
twitchcon and people being like yo what up
but then like we're we'll never be real celebrities
internet celebrities the only way to be a real celebrity is
to actually do crossovers with mainstream media like a pewdiepie and
his featured episode himself of south park for example and you know what's you
know what's kind of weird is i actually think there might be more
obsessive tendencies for the like not real
celebrity youtube people they're like attainable they're they're attainable
they're more attainable yeah there's less security yep because there's less
money going around yeah they don't live on like a 15 million dollar estate
probably some of them live in like an apartment or some normal house that has
no additional security if you go to events you probably have no security
you're you're much more public in terms of like this guy's he's in some huge
stuff i recognize him from multiple different things that he's in
his twitter account is not that big yeah it's the opposite of someone who's like
a youtuber who will have a giant twitter account even though they're less
recognizable exactly and i'm not trying to dig on you dude if you're watching
that wasn't the point um like there's lots of different things
and they probably see you a lot more
if someone's in a movie and they're a big movie star you see them for like
two hours-ish but it's more memorable it's more memorable yeah but two hours
ish every once in a blue moon youtubers often
really really commonly if they're a twitch streamer potentially like eight
hours a day like it's way more personal there's a lot more obsession apparently
it was on sugar pine seven uh just from what was in his twitter bio
he's yeah no it's crazy
um apparently people prefer LTT internet
celebrity over kim kardashian but we weren't really talking about kim
kardashian specifically that's another weird people are like can we do a
patreon to save luke that's awkward um no
uh-huh what else someone also asked if you're going to be doing alliance media
group stuff from time to time can you be retained as a part-time employee that uh
would be really weird yeah and it'd be complicated and expensive too so if he's part-time at
both companies then both companies have to pay like canada pension plan
separately um and i don't i don't remember how benefits works as well but
there's like and it would be like a really low amount of hours of part time
and then really randomly it would be like a bunch and then it would go back down to really low like it's it's
actually easier if we just keep it clean and lucas just like a guest on the
lanchow or like guest hosts a video here and there and he is
the ceo of Floatplane media that's his job yeah um
so is it the ceo of Floatplane nope nope nope technically that's me jokes
um but actually this is something that neither luke nor i had looked up
beforehand but c o o basically means you actually run the company yeah
which i totally didn't know but yeah if you look up the actual
definition of ceo is more what did it say
i it was like it was like it was like large-scale strategic decision maker
yeah and then ceo was like operationally speaking actually runs the damn thing
yeah oversight of operational procedures
and efficiencies it had a really broad description that was basically like the
guy that actually does the stuff so it actually works really well in terms of
like definition of what i want to do at full plane it makes way more sense so um
is Floatplane a different building no no it would be tape on the floor for
now for now yeah someday though if all goes according to plan it it will need
to be Floatplane will totally need its own building it'll have its own it's
have its own like quite a few employees and it'll like totally explode and we've
had a lot of people tell us uh Floatplane is going to be a failure like
you know the failing Floatplane
is already failing um my favorite one is when they spell it wrong yeah these
people have no no access to internal numbers that
already exist and it is not failing and is not going
to fail and we're actually like really excited because sometime in the next
hopefully we would measure it in weeks not months
we're going to have an alpha site up well technically you could go on the
site now if you really wanted to i've i've yeah
sort of i've said like it's not open in any way
unless you're inquisitive enough to figure out how to get in there yeah um
and then uh and then hopefully not that long after that we are going to get to
the point where we would be able to invite on more creators i don't know
what you're changing unless it's white balance no i'm just joking oh you're
just checking you always check you do not always check no it's very rare he's done it before
though he has done it before yeah okay we'll defend him on that terence i think
he comes in this way with ripped underwear every time see you
wow that's what i needed i needed terran ripped underwear before my long repair
so i'll have lots of time to reflect on that
dang oh dang someone asked so i'll bring it up right now
someone said are you doing your charity stream after this no that is tomorrow
oh i'm doing it tomorrow i was like what well then why did you why did i why were
you like no it's yo can i promote the charity stream on the lan show and i was
like yeah go for it like are you doing it no no
yeah i know it's happening tomorrow it starts at noon pacific standard time why
do you waste my time that's what i want to know is this funny tv well i won't anymore
because i'm leaving you can't leave because i'm sending you
wait wait i can't do it yes yeah yeah yes he
said i don't care no severance oh man that would be great all right
but yeah i know it's starting tomorrow at noon we've raised 21 000 for extra
life so far this year wow i want to see if we can make it to 30 making it to 25
would be super great uh making it to nothing more than we have is also
fantastic yeah show up if you can dang man yeah that's a luke underscoring afr
yeah okay on twitch all right outside of the charity streams
i'd probably recommend not watching it's a terrible stream but the charity streams are great the charity streams
are planned out we do like one game per hour this year is going to be uh 2017 in
review we're gonna do 20 different games through 17 and talk about what impact
they had on the gaming industry sometimes there's cool stuff it's pretty uncommon like when you're like like like
uh uh um testing Floatplane livestream
breaking twitches
are there any twitch staff in the chat right now probably not hope not
literally breaking twitch's terms of service
in your attempt to create a service that
could allow people to break twitch's terms of service
literally but we would never encourage people to
do that no um like seriously we would we would not
encourage people to do that okay probably not yeah so posted by dr
mcintosh on the forum we have our first
news item of the day a mere 20 minutes into the stream
apple apologizes for iphone slow down
drama will offer 29 battery placements for a
year batteries are apparently consumable components now
this is a stroke of
absolute and you'll have to pardon the pun here genius
oh oh because for the price of people who would have
been sitting in their stores earning an hourly wage
anyway and batteries that are just
basically being sold at like not a markup at this point or a very small
markup at this point so apple actually gives up next to nothing here
though they do create some additional bottlenecking in there in their queues
in all likelihood for the cost of basically next to
nothing apple is hoping it looks like this is my perception here is all based
on what i think it looks like they're hoping to avoid a lengthy expensive
class action lawsuit and a bunch of bad
pr by doing something super duper temporary
yeah so apple's basically going whoa whoa
whoa there's a lot of people complaining about a thing you know what here's some
goodwill also we are not actually fixing
this problem in any long-term way so
yeah go eat crap yeah am i am i missing something here
yeah no um it's pretty ridiculous so just in case
people didn't know uh france as far as i know possibly other places i don't
actually see this in the neighborhood it's it's different yeah it's a different topic so we can talk about we
can talk about that now if you want well i think it ties in really well because
you mentioned to avoid getting started so let's talk about the lawsuit in
france so a group in france called stop planned obsolescence has filed a
criminal complaint in the french court alleging that apple has violated
france's energy transition law and to be
clear um yeah this is the first criminal charge
against apple related to this dispute because it
is officially against the law to do this in france
like specifically um the group believes the law on the energy transition of 2015
prohibits the practice of planned obsolescence which is defined by the use
of techniques by which the person responsible for making of for the
marketing of a product aims to deliberately reduce lifespan in order to
increase the replacement rate the complaint is therefore criminal the law
provides for a maximum maximum sentence of two years in prison
and up to 300 000 euros in fines and 5
of the annual annual turnover
big deal like specifically stated in the law that it is illegal um apple can try
to contort their pitch for why they did it
in terms of like the uh reducing shutdowns and stuff like that but that
changes nothing yeah because the end user experience yes
because you are still more likely to replace the phone because you have less battery and it is specifically happening
because of reducing lifespan in order to increase
replacement rate because the proving the in order to replace uh increased
replacement rate is difficult but all that really needs to be proven
is the deliberately reducing lifespan and
you could make a fairly strong argument that it's done to increase replacement
rate if you can demonstrate that the replacement rate is higher which
anecdotally from testimony from users
should be fairly easy to do yeah
especially for a product like the iphone where so many people run out and buy the
new one every year because it's faster
this is something that i've been kind of curious about
so i don't think you were involved in this
video but we did a really interesting piece um oh my goodness it must have
been like a year ago anyway it was a long time ago actually where we took
swift tech's flagship CPU water block
over 10 years i think it was eight years or something
yeah so Jake worked on it yeah yeah so over a
span of many years and we tested them all on a modern
flagship high-end processor and what we observed is that every year there were
these claims of 20 better performance or two degree better performance or
whatever it was and if you added them up
it was nowhere near the difference between the first one we tested and the
last one we tested now with the water block you could make
the argument that every year those improvements were more to do with
optimizing for the generation of CPU that was being released at that time
yeah so the die size probably the hot spot actually the CPU just generating
less thermals no no no not that that's a thing because on the same CPU on the on
the news the new block would do better than the old one every time because they actually
did design them around them yeah okay
now let's go back to the iphone for a minute here when we're comparing
performance on a year on a brand new iphone
a year old iphone and a two-year-old iphone as often happens whether it's a
you know a written article like a non-tech or whether it's
us just holding up phones and going which one's faster
how much of apple's marketing then has been affected by this
when they talk about the performance improvement generation over generation
think about it when people do independent benchmarks to look at
apple's claims no i'm sure we would have heard about it if
there was some huge discrepancy there so is apple using decayed performance
numbers to talk about their generational improvements oh oh scathing
oh i don't know this is actually not
something that i think i have the capability to test because you would
have to you would have to get apple to create
for you a non-degraded you know iphone
6. okay so someone said there's no improvement on apple that's not what
he's saying he's saying the difference of improvement would is probably in
reality a little bit smaller yeah than what they're claiming like if apple says
okay from the iphone 6 to the iphone 6s
we improved 30 CPU performance and then
if they actually degrade this one and then they say okay now with the seven
we've got 30 better performance it's not a 60 improvement over that first one
it's not 30 plus 30 which actually wouldn't be 60 yes i know just don't
worry about it the point is that it could be significantly smaller than what they
were advertising i don't know there's not an accusation there's no allegedly
even there's just just asking questions just asking questions um
Floatplane data on LMG petabyte no
sorry oh no someone's asking who owns
the servers and all this kind of stuff oh okay it's it's not Floatplane is its
own company its servers are hosted elsewhere yeah
um now i think there was a backup of something on like your nas at some point
but that's dead yeah and that was that was uh not like very early stages
so we i'm not we're not we're not going to say we haven't done
anything janky that wasn't customer stuff no to be
clear and we also at this time okay the i think the only
customer data we hold is actually through the forum not through the flow
plane site at all yeah and it's not it's not like your credit card info
because we don't take credit card yeah that's right it's coming though but
then even then we won't store that information it'll be stored by stripe
all right so actually let's go back to what apple's offering here so the offer
continues through december 2018 for the 29 battery replacement um they're also
planning to issue an iOS software update early in 2018 that gives users more
visibility into health of their iphone's battery so they can see for themselves
if its condition is affecting performance we've got a few people
asking about the 30 plus 30 thing it's it's because we're talking 30 above so
item b is 30 above item a item c is 30
above item b that doesn't mean that item c is 60
above item a yeah or even approximately 60 because if item
b got degraded by 10 or 15 percent
yeah and item c is now 30 faster than that then it's only 45-ish percent
faster than the original one yeah okay um you're adding percentages of two
different things and trying to come up with one it's not it is really
interesting to see apple the like the pioneer of built-in batteries that you
can't replace really changing their tune on what a
battery is to try and avoid any legal ramifications here so they said in its
le in the letter that batteries are consumable components
but then in 2007 this is actually a really really great quote apple vice
marketing vice president uh
hold on yeah this is great their their vice president of marketing
said that most iphone users will realize as most ipod customers as ipod customers
realized that they never needed to replace their batteries
yeah um okay
so based on their experience they originally okay we began to receive
feedback about people are seeing slower performance we now believe another
contributor to these user experiences the continued chemical aging of the batteries and older iphone 6 and 6s
devices many of which are still running on their original many of which are still running on their original
batteries yeah as opposed to what other battery
that you're supposed to put in it yeah well i fixed it has been able to do it
the whole time my frame on my iphone 6 is bent it got bent in my bag because
hashtag bendgate so i don't even know how easily i would be able to pop the
screen probably not put the battery in and then get the screen back on because
it's actually like buckled on the side probably not that easily no i haven't
seen it it's bad
all right anyway um
so the ifixit just to bring this up i fix it drops its
iphone battery replacement to 29 we don't really need to like post this link
and stuff this would be a very short thing to talk about yeah um but it's
it's a kit i wonder if
they take another jab i'm sure you get the battery but is that
do you get like tools and stuff um
yeah it's not any cheaper so the only benefit is that you don't have to wait
in line at a genius bar but i think that
having your phone yeah okay hold on so the like the iphone 7 plus replacement
kit comes with all the tools you need to do it and the battery
so if you buy it once and then you're able to just source the
batteries then it's cheaper you can keep doing it for yourself repeatedly and you
can do it for your friends and stuff and you just need to acquire the battery
yeah but there is something to be said if it's the same price for just having
it done at the store where if they screw it up they owe you a new phone
yes so i personally if it was 29
versus 29 would just take my phone to the apple store with that said part of the problem
is that not everyone has easy access to an apple store and have you seen what
comes in this kit oh that's pretty sick they're pretty
sick it has one of the nice screwdrivers and it has like the like a has the pry
tools that's a nice one for the iphone se cool okay but like
there's there's different kits just so they make sure you actually have everything they're all
pretty much the same actually but there's slight variations probably
just the battery in the instruction manual but like you get some nice stuff
you get three bits you get the really nice screwdriver which i actually like a
lot i don't know tweezers esd tweezers little suction
cups speaking of ifixit who by the way isn't sponsoring the show today
actual people who are sponsoring the show today madrina's coffee
i don't oh that actually smells really good berry
lemony nutty yeah they've got all kinds of like really cool like does that not
smell like it does just smelling that could wake
you up so madrina's coffee is coffee for fuel
they've got big cans of their cold brewed coffee with a flavor for everyone
they've got cafe mocha cafe vanilla they've got an entire thing over here

his drink consumed literally everything they sent last time within like two days

they have specialty grade blends of cold brewed coffee given to you in a convenient ready to drink can and you
can also just buy their premium roasts in little

still in here apparently so i can just hold up the package because it's empty i
think i ate all of that on our uh the first day this shipment arrived
dang it you know what there's a package
traditional traditional is really good too i'm not going to subject myself to
the hottest stuff today because let me tell you guys if you are into hot jerky
i have had multiple people go out of their way to contact me and say you know
what i love hot jerky i can eat hot jerky all day when you guys said savage
jerky is really hot i was like yeah it's probably not that hot i ordered some
it's that hot i wonder what mape thinks mape so mape doesn't have
um a sense of smell as far as i know or it's extremely
really reduced i don't remember it's one of the two that's good so it actually
helps him deal with spicy food like a lot and he can deal with like insanity
levels of spicy food and he ordered some
i would love to hear from me but i haven't i haven't heard from him all right
so savage jerky is made with the best ingredients without nitrates or
preservatives the goal is to create a snack that's full of flavor and spice but that isn't bad for you
we've got 13 different flavors my personal favorites are the maple buffalo
bacon the mojo is really good traditional is really good the cracked
pepper and sea salt really actually got a lot of great flavors yep and if you're
into the hot they've got jerkys that are made out of carolina reapers ghost
peppers um there's another super crazy hot one
those ones are not for the faint of heart for real
um they've also got barbecue sauce hot sauce and a spice rub their carolina
reaper hot sauce is made using one of the hottest peppers in the world the
jalapeno no i'm just kidding the carolina reaper it's like right in the name should have been fairly obvious
anyway you can use offer code LTT to save ten percent on their products
over at savage jerky.com
what can i do for you i'm gonna just do a thing here don't worry about it are
you adding more i am okay all right let's see let's see if it distorts
oh oh oh risky right that's good i think it'll be fine
all right so what else we got for topics today i
feel like there's got to be some i want to talk about people dying oh yeah i
guess we can try to keep them fairly short but that really i think they're
pretty important it's worth talking we do have to talk about it
yeah so oh i want to talk about this too it'll be fairly short but yeah yeah for
sure i'll keep it condensed all right um
where is the first one geez uh breaking news there we go uh this was
posted over on pcgamer.com
so i don't know if we want to put like the guy's twitch account or
anything on blast um definitely not going to talk about who
did it because i'm very against the last thing these people need is more
attention exactly um very against making celebrities around terrible people but
um andrew finch is the person who
passed away in this whole thing so we can talk about him because he had
absolutely nothing to do with this and it's very sad
that he was involved in this at all anyways
someone was harassing a twitch streamer to some degree saying that they were
going to swat them as a prank and all this kind of stuff um
so as far as i know there was kind of a like bring it on bro that was
proposed and super dumb by the way yep
and a fake address was given but this wasn't an actually fake address
it was somewhat fake street yeah it was someone's actual home and that home was
swatted uh the swat team apparently um
oh here we go yeah in this case one gamer essentially dared the other to
swat him but provided an address that wasn't his own but was nearby so that's
apparently what happened police believe they were responding to a report of a murder and hostage situation
at finch's home when andrew finch came to the door he was shot and killed
these situations are always hard because if if he say
had his hands in a sweater or something like that it could look like he's trying
to conceal a gun i don't know what's going on um i'm not
blaming anyone except for the people that were involved and i don't want to
name them um the the two main people that were
involved is what i'm saying i don't want to name them very very disappointing situation
swatting in its own is is
terrible um and
causing it to happen to someone that that
someone that isn't even remotely involved is even worse so yeah this
whole thing not good uh the officer who killed finch when he answered his front
door has been placed on administrative paid leave so which is probably good see
what happens with that hopefully he gets some psych help as well um
because he's probably traumatized which is another
side effect of these things happening which is why they shouldn't be done
swat calls for hot current hostage and
very recent murder like the the guys on the swat call
that yeah hard situation to deal with moving on
there's another one we'll just get rid of this one while we're at it um a 44
year old russian man was playing a star wars vr game the game that was being
played has nothing to do with the actual story um he fell and he hit his head on
a glass table apparently based on the medical
examinators report the man continued playing the game instead of seeking any
form of immediate medical attention and lost a lot of blood in the process he
eventually succumbed to his injuries and died there has been no toxology information
done so there's no knowledge of whether he was
like potentially under the influence of drugs or alcohol
which may have promoted him not realizing how much
blood he was losing well depending on how you how deep you
get cut you can actually like not feel it very much yeah like
that's that's the thing that your nerves are mostly at the surface so he could
have had a like pretty egregious injury and he's in vr so he wouldn't be
able to see it i would assume that if you're not drunk or high in any
form that you'd be able to feel it
like losing enough blood to die but then it's also coming from your head
and it's warm and warm is is uh harder to really feel depending on how into the
game you are you might be sweating already so it could be yeah and if you're
wearing like a sweater like to be clear i'm not saying that you know um
i'm not saying that he probably shouldn't have known to like
pop out of the game for a minute and like check himself if you get hit if you
get hit in the head any any like if you fall and your head hits something it is
bad there's no like there's no thing around that you should get yourself
checked out to a certain degree make sure that you're not mildly consuming i'm a football player yeah yeah actually
um i know a lot of people have concussions the only concussion i ever
had was in rugby and i thought i was completely fine and my coach like
demanded to drive me home and then part way on the drive home i was like uh
something's wrong and we had to stop and i puked all over the side of the road because i thought i was fine but had a
concussion um so yeah check yourself out
if you hit your head on anything head injuries are brutal
very sorry to hear that this man passed away
on to different news yeah all right
this one kind of interesting do you want to do gaming disorder is now a mental
condition according to the world health organization
supposed by hey yo on the forum
the original article is from forbes here
and i will just click continue to article because that's not a parasite
did you post that in the chat already i did not okay do you have gaming disorder
a newly recognized mental health condition
um probably well let's find out let's find out yeah
let's see let's diagnose me okay gaming disorder is characterized by a pattern
of persistent or recurrent gaming behaviors yep okay okay so far i'm
screwed digital gaming or video gaming okay both
which may be online over the internet yeah or offline not
over the internet okay still screwed okay all right manifested by one
impaired control over gaming uh for example onset frequency intensity
duration termination and context okay
i'm screwed okay yep um two
increasing priority given to gaming to the extent that gaming takes precedent
over other life interests and daily activities
all right all right all right it doesn't say how many other life interests that's
the problem so if it takes precedence over anything yeah i mean would you say
gaming is more important than running to take a crap sometimes
i've never i've never actually pooped myself
but i have been in situations thank you i'm glad no but like but gamer bladder
is a thing oh totally a thing where like you won't go pee for like a whole day
because you've just been sitting down the whole time you brought all your supplies to wherever you're gaming
you're eating you're drinking you're gaming the whole day goes by you stand
up and all of a sudden you're like whoa and that puts pressure on your bladder
and is actually not a good thing so so sure okay number three continuation or
escalation of gaming despite the occurrence of negative consequences okay
yep yep i'm still screwed okay um okay
okay but there's a few other things here okay so the behavior pattern needs to be
of sufficient severity to result in significant impairment in personal
family social educational occupational or other important areas of functioning
okay i don't think i've had uh
one of them previously in my life but not now yeah okay yeah i i told my
girlfriend that i was grounded on tuesdays and thursdays so that i could raid
oh but that was a long time ago okay that was a long time ago
yeah this sounds like some of the uh some of the um
some of the like celebrities and stuff who have been accused of sexual assault
where like the defenses that was a really long time ago
you know what you're disordered man that's it that's all there is to it you
are disordered yeah there's no denying it
um okay the pattern of gaming behavior must be oh maybe continuous episodic or
recurrent see maybe so you're not off the ground if it occurs then you're done
all right but yeah yeah but it said may may so the gaming behavior and other
features are normally evident over a period of at least 12 months in order
for a diagnosis to be assigned although the required duration may be shortened
if all diagnostic requirements are met and symptoms are severe so what what
happens if you're diagnosed with so this inclusion basically means that in a
could you be forcefully hospitalized in a more socialist country like say for
example yes i think some people would argue canada is pretty darn socialist
in some ways yeah um it could be that your tax dollars
oh could be spent rehabilitating someone from
gaming disorder
so the the inclusion you're gonna have to rehabilitate me in
the who guidelines will mean that it will officially become a health
condition a diagnosis that can be used by doctors official healthcare other
healthcare workers and insurance companies so you can't be
because there's some cases where you can be admitted to like a mental health
hospital by someone who isn't yourself right that's a thing right
uh i can speak from not my own personal
experience being admitted but i definitely know someone who has admitted
okay not of their own could you be admitted
to a hospital for gaming addiction that's like it not of your own accord to
be clear this is not gaming addiction this is gaming disorder gaming disorder
gaming disorder gaming disorder because it's broadcast could someone bring their
kid and be like my kid likes league of
legends so the league of legends
the legal sergeant yes if you're going to be the ignorant parent
okay my kid is addicted to law uh to the law
yeah okay the lol the wall the lol yeah okay could you put them in a hospital
imagine this like that has its own like essentially
like white padded cell that doesn't have video games could you have gaming
disorder so bad that you need disability
pay i was talking earlier oh my god
oh my god
the twitch chat's like they like league of legends that's a disorder
god damn burn that was pretty good i like that uh so wait but do they take
away your gaming stuff if you have disabilities i don't know
because then then wouldn't they just be paying you to indulge in your house yeah
but like that's like um like okay i don't know what the the what amendment
it probably is there's probably some amendment where it's nobody's business
what you spend your money no seriously which is like in much the same way that
you can like be disabled and
you can be getting um like you can be
okay like you can get this i don't know what the government money is called
because there's all kinds of different government money for different like there's disability and there's
out of work but not disabled and then there's out of work temporarily and then
there's like mental health disorder out of work and then there's like welfare i don't
even know what welfare is exactly but like it's something to do with is it
called welfare in canada i don't even think so yeah yeah like i don't know
some kind of social services some kind of there's lots of different names but
like i don't think they're allowed to tell you hey by the way the reason that
you're not very functional is that you've like been super addicted to drugs for a long time and your brain is adult
um you can't spend this money we're giving you on drugs like i actually
don't think they can do that so if they can't do that how do they prevent you from spending money on a graphics card
and they're not going to take things from you so they're not going to take
your computer they're not going to take yeah like i don't think they can repo you're going to take your place and
they're not going to take your expertise so you just get paid to
play video games i mean if we're gonna do this like if we're gonna you know if
we're gonna do this then let's just have a minimum
guaranteed income and get it out of the way which we're working on to be fair
canada's working on that there's a pilot project somewhere in ontario some little
town is looking because it is time like if if
if if we're the the only option here appears like if you're gonna go
socialism then you go full socialism okay
oh man this is this is this is going to be
there is going to be some lawsuits
and there is going to be some well like some public debates
admitting in order to get disability insurance or
disability money yeah and like whatever can you imagine like it said
specifically insurance companies can you imagine insurance companies being able
to charge you a higher premium because you got diagnosed with gamer disorder
when you were like a kid or whatever like can you imagine
what my goodness
oh man and this is so vague can we can we
pay attention to that too like it's really vague holy cow like if i if i
like update a little mobile game under the
table at dinner one time is that like impairing
my my like family if grandpa doesn't like it then you just impaired your
family function man yeah like holy cow
all right this is cool this was posted by tomorrow on the forum the original
article is from tech spot here and this was something you said you really
i'm 100 certain that i played everquest or wow or something when my mom didn't
want me to like did i did i like interfere with family function yeah i
think so but we moved on to a different topic anyways okay so this is over there
this is sorry i'm pointing at this oh that makes sense
don't worry about it awkward um so okay so proposed dmca
not an actual thing yeah not yet anyway proposed it's a dmca exemption
uh would allow people to resurrect dead online games this has been brought up
this is pretty good by the museum of art and digital entertainment my biggest
reason why i like this yes is because honestly gaming companies have been in a
really weird spot yep it's not even entirely their fault they don't really
have a choice no so like blizzard going after the private server guys um anyone
else taking an online game that requires
server login to some kind so it's just wow is an easy example for
this and it's like been very recently largely it's also not a perfect example
though just because it's like technically still supported even though it's just like newer versions of it
let's use the matrix online sure let's see
oh terrible game but let's use the matrix
online someone still wants to play it someone is actively trying to
essentially rebuild that game but the people that made the matrix
online and the people that own the rights to the matrix online or the
matrix in general can't allow them to
spin up their own servers because under like copyright style law that would be
not defending your copyright or something it's it's not defending your
something i think it's copyright
so with this exemption that would mean that
you don't have to go after these people to defend your copyright
you don't have to that's no longer a thing so these gaming companies would be
able to just let people build small tiny little communities
around their games that they don't want to or can't support anymore and it says
in here ea
the electronic arts online services shutdown list includes more than 300
titles and servers dropped out of service in the last four years
and so anyone who tries to resurrect any of those things is going to end up with
a seasoned assistant notice from the copyright holder because otherwise if ea
themselves 10 years down the line and we have seen
gaming franchises get resurrected after 10 years of inactivity
that's the thing i mean look at okay serious sam
yeah would have been an example of that i don't know if it was 10 years but it was a lot yeah anything valve does
yeah anyway the point is if they ever want to
resurrect that iep the fact that they haven't been defending at all this time
weakens their copyright claim yeah against all of it um
so it's a big problem now something like wow is confusing
because with wow what people are trying to resurrect is like wrath of lich king
bernie crusade and classic with our three different versions of wow
but wow is still running and still exists so it's in a very gray area i
don't think i don't think you'd be able to win with
this one because then how do you define a patch versus an expansion and how
quickly can someone actually do this and et cetera et cetera so the last time this was brought up in 2015 it was shut
down because the proposal uh because the specific games mentioned
in the proposal could still be played over a lan but the new request argues that local
multiplayer is not really a thing anymore yeah
so if you don't have the option it's almost never to play it
on a lan nintendo's still doing it and the servers are shut down
then effectively it's just gone
you can't have that experience anymore yeah and why for what
doesn't make any sense i i'm a huge proponent of this and i
don't think this is gonna stop companies like ea from being dick bags
but um it will allow people to ignore that
anyways and be like well this is a dmcx
exemption i'm just going to run this anyways what's up oh
sorry i just um oh yeah yeah okay so last last topic sure posted by
aluminium tech on the forum um netflix adds HDR streaming to Windows 10 in the
uwp app and microsoft edge um which we actually think we might have
a better understanding of why 4k and HDR would be exclusive to
microsoft edge it actually does there's some there's some things
like especially in this that are a little bit more complicated
to figure out why than what we did but in general
edge seems to handle color color and some other video stuff better
than other browsers which is weird because there's a lot of stuff that
doesn't do that sucks in like so many different ways but it's good at that so
you can get HDR netflix if you have a premium netfix plan use microsoft edge
or the universal Windows app if you have Windows 10 with the fall creators update
if you have an HDR display if you have an Intel 7th standard newer CPU AMD not
supported and if you have integrated graphics or a gtx 10 series with three
gigs of vram or more AMD not supported
that's a lot of that's a lot of stars and asterisks
and asterisks yeah what okay what is a premium netflix
plan is there non-premium netflix plans yeah you just uh like 1080p or 4k or
whatever like i have a premium one oh so that means you have a 4k streaming plan
yeah it costs like another six bucks a month or whatever oh wasn't that included at some point
i have no idea i got on the netflix bandwagon like super late okay yeah
all right so that's pretty much it for the show today thank you so much for tuning in we'll see you guys again no
no no Floatplane we will never see you guys again because he's going to float
planes sorry about that
oh yeah we've actually got a bunch of really cool stuff over on Floatplane right now should i go on to the actual
site uh i want to do it on the site sure i
want to do it on the site gonna be confusing for people again
i already wasn't able to do support quests for this week sorry if you
sent in a support ticket and you're like what the heck it will be responded to this weekend um
probably not tonight so i have to prepare for the stream probably not tomorrow because i'm doing a big 24-hour
charity stream probably not sunday because i'll still be doing the 20-hour
charity stream and sleeping but either sunday or monday and it's a
long weekend so i'm including monday is in the weekend you're gonna have to stop doing those 24-hour streams we've talked
about this i know you're getting it it's 20 this time is it 20. it's 20. yeah
it's we're saying like 20 ish so it's like 20. we're talking about it and he's
like yeah like i don't know what it is every time i do one of these 24 hour
streams i get sick yeah and like even if i sleep enough hours like i
still feel like crap i'm like yo dude you're old yeah it's happening it
happened to me at like exactly the same age i specifically asked so the the
theme with this one so the stream that does the best is my like birthday
charity stream and i think why is because i do a whole
bunch of games but i do each game just for an hour and there's a reason why
it's there it's it's my favorite game from that year and we iterate one game
every year so i was trying to recreate that idea and someone suggested what if
you just do games in 2017 so i went okay i'm going to do
interesting not necessarily good not necessarily bad but interesting games
for 2017. so like battlefront 2 is going to be involved oh yeah because we'll
just talk during the stream about the loot box controversy and what actually
happened with the game what happened at ea all that kind of stuff so it'll be games gaming disorder confirmed
yeah pretty much uh yeah no yeah exactly
uh good call um but yeah like games that are discussion
worthy is what we're going to talk about so so i asked a whole bunch that were
actually discussion worthy because i was like nope nope nope nope nope i need to
get this stream shorter so i cut it down to 20.
all right i am loading it up
boom floodplain okay so that's a placeholder thing right
there don't ignore that yeah but it looks like kyle has a video up
USB-C all the things if you are subscribed to bit wit specifically but
with ultra yeah kyle also has a thing here
um wait have we been pushing stuff live on this still uh yeah oh no i don't
think we have oh lol people aren't clicking public then dang it
hooray okay i will i will they're your employees now
yeah well still i guess i guess
okay so there are did you ever actually tell people how to do it
um i don't think you did yeah nick did
super late but you never did did you you told me not to make that video that i
had already fully planned because you would do it no i didn't do that i should
have just done that um i told you i should have done it too
is best case under 35 bucks that's already live on youtube oh dang okay
so no one's been pushing public great all right i did i did i published this
which also has a description this thing's sick by the way cool uh 144
hertz 300 bucks us wow ips 1440p wow uh 28 inch
wow killer absolutely killer that's cool
like the crushinator um we got it from an ebay seller the same
guys who sent over that uh that pretty cheap um ultra wide like a while back
interesting that's pretty cool handy wake up tech
this video this video was done did you school oh you are not you're currently
not logged in oh brilliant oh i'm on the oh
well reasons why we don't use the site that's still being developed on um okay
so that's fair that's fair what you said just there you were fair to me just now um so to
explain to the viewers who are probably like what the heck um he's on his
creator account so his creator account isn't technically subscribed to himself
i think yeah i thought we fixed that but that might have been overwritten or
something no no you fixed it for kyle oh yeah but like it was like it was a
temporary fix like a dumb fix like not a real fix wait what is this
oh yeah why you do this to me
well they needed it so what you can do my other test account
is also not working i hate you so much
i hate you with all of my heart and soul that's great all right that's fine this
one's fine okay all right so what do we got over there
this is a cool video oh that's i've been waiting to see this
thing for seven years the chiller resurrection
is real um there it is
check this out that is a CPU cooler right there that thing you're looking at
that i'm lifting up onto the desk so when did you originally make that thing
um it was the first
oh man hold on did i work at ncix yet
just trying to think i think it was my first summer with
Yvonne so it's been like 13 years ago
yeah so he resurrected a CPU cooler from
13 years ago yeah that's like actively cooled and all this kind of stuff it's
it's like it's like refrigerant cooled it's pretty sick um we've got a tech
quickie on dolby atmos and dtsx because a lot of people actually didn't really
know what they were by the way tyler suggested today and i was very surprised
that we haven't done it uh we should do a Techquickie on cryptocurrencies
oh we have done it oh was it just like a long time ago that
was a long time ago is this does it move maybe do a new one john's working on it
oh okay yep cool Yvonne was giving me crap about it
it's just like austin did one i'm like yeah so did we she's like well he did
one recently like okay fine
we'll make a new one um
what else we got oh the beginning of this video is sick
like it's actually awesome
it's like epically cinematic and stuff
what
this is the lenovo 25th anniversary edition think pad
what like isn't this just way over the top
but why did
oh my goodness
that is ridiculous it's all just for fun yeah yeah yeah um
we have uh the review of the dankest ergonomic keyboard the ergodox ez
that's got led lighting on an ergonomic keyboard
because why not dale the sleeper is live nice this has
been really well received this is um not
i think strictly speaking as powerful as the last sleeper pc but it's super small
six core processor and it's in this
epic epic chassis really cool build uh tech showdown part
three is up and the conclusion goes up tomorrow um for those of you who have
been watching tech showdown but have been a little disappointed um feedback
on part three is a lot better part three is kind of where it picks up
so part three is where you're going to want to go watch it over on floatplay
i'm surprised it's gonna be four parts
um i didn't expect four parts when we were shooting long story okay um okay so
i think that's pretty much it for what we've got going on right now
yeah cool there we go although i thought i had
like uh like an exclusive behind the scenes that maybe i forgot to post oops
yes i did i think i did oops
okay so that's a thing just you know remember to mark it public
well no no i see it's confusing because there's no there's marking it public in the cms
which we have to do and then there's like remembering to like post a thread
in the forum now when i i just want everyone to move over to the site i'm i'm like it's not ready yet i know it's
not ready don't do that all right so thanks for watching this week see you
again next week same bat time same bad channel thanks boy
