WEBVTT

00:00:00.359 --> 00:00:08.800
all right guys welcome to the WAN Show the live show every week at

00:00:04.880 --> 00:00:10.719
approximately 4:30 Pacific time I like

00:00:08.800 --> 00:00:17.119
cables like this can you really say approximately when it's always after cuz

00:00:14.160 --> 00:00:21.359
it's never no it has been before when you're not here when my brother and I

00:00:19.760 --> 00:00:26.480
host it sometimes we start it like 5 minutes early just to troll wow that is

00:00:24.199 --> 00:00:31.000
a that is a different type of trolling it's like it's it's the kind of trolling

00:00:28.800 --> 00:00:35.280
we often have around here trping tring you've never heard of tring

00:00:33.800 --> 00:00:39.399
no yeah that's something that we do all the time it's helpful

00:00:37.000 --> 00:00:43.559
trolling where you're like here's the answer but in the most obnoxious

00:00:41.399 --> 00:00:49.920
possible way I I hope it made you happy jackass

00:00:47.800 --> 00:00:55.440
yeah uh so guys we've got a great show for you today there's big updates with

00:00:52.719 --> 00:01:01.199
respect to Net Neutrality as well as the title 2 reclassification of the

00:00:58.000 --> 00:01:04.839
interwebs and yeah yeah basically all

00:01:01.199 --> 00:01:07.759
good news there Android 5.0 Lollipop so

00:01:04.839 --> 00:01:13.040
far is a gigantic turd I mean we often point at well okay we'll talk about it

00:01:09.400 --> 00:01:16.640
later basically the adoption of it is

00:01:13.040 --> 00:01:20.880
very teeny tiny very

00:01:16.640 --> 00:01:22.960
small can I have some more

00:01:20.880 --> 00:01:27.720
lollipops wasn't he small wasn't that part of the story uh Oliver Twist no he

00:01:25.880 --> 00:01:31.520
was just a kid I thought he was a small kid he was an orphan yeah I mean he was

00:01:29.960 --> 00:01:34.759
smaller than his parents but you can't prove it cuz they weren't exactly

00:01:36.799 --> 00:01:41.720
around I think I I tasted some Cards

00:01:39.799 --> 00:01:45.280
Against Humanity there I think I think I was coming back yeah that's going to be

00:01:43.079 --> 00:01:50.560
fun we've got our uh a new format for Channel Super Fun coming up we we're

00:01:47.479 --> 00:01:52.000
calling it games night we play games yep

00:01:50.560 --> 00:01:57.960
the first one is Cards Against Humanity so it will probably be the most inappropriate one of all of them and out

00:01:55.759 --> 00:02:00.640
of anything we've ever released yeah what else we got for topics today we

00:01:59.640 --> 00:02:07.079
have am I starting well I did the first two already you already did them yeah the

00:02:04.719 --> 00:02:11.840
lollipop thing and the uh neutrality thing I remember now I derailed that so

00:02:09.080 --> 00:02:16.280
hard that I forgot where the rails were derail by the time I got to my

00:02:14.280 --> 00:02:20.480
destination anyways China is going to require real name registration to be

00:02:17.959 --> 00:02:26.480
able to use the internet so also Nintendo creators

00:02:23.920 --> 00:02:30.120
program there's more revisions on that yeah there's more Nintendo creators

00:02:27.879 --> 00:02:34.800
program revisions and they're bad so I got the good news and the amusing news

00:02:32.000 --> 00:02:39.520
you just got the terrible hor that suck crappy news things that suck with lonus

00:02:36.840 --> 00:02:44.200
and Luke let's roll Dead

00:02:44.200 --> 00:02:53.040
intro no you didn't clench hard enough oh I am ready to do this though oh

00:02:53.040 --> 00:03:03.000
cool usually and I think it's funny

00:03:00.560 --> 00:03:08.200
our sponsors today are linda.com sex appeal and learning all at

00:03:06.440 --> 00:03:13.280
the same time they messaged you about that no no they keep they keep letting

00:03:10.519 --> 00:03:16.920
me do this all right and Squarespace they have a new slogan I don't remember

00:03:15.040 --> 00:03:22.959
what it is but it's something to do with making beautiful websites where space

00:03:20.120 --> 00:03:27.879
help you dream with what's his name Jeff Bridges Jeff Bridges I don't think

00:03:24.879 --> 00:03:32.280
that's it also Mass drop get good deals

00:03:27.879 --> 00:03:35.040
on stuff and it's um um physics because

00:03:32.280 --> 00:03:40.799
mass and dropping things which is also physics everything is basically physics

00:03:37.080 --> 00:03:42.680
except at the the same rate right which

00:03:40.799 --> 00:03:45.920
is physics and not all mass Drops Fall at the same rate well hold on a second

00:03:44.120 --> 00:03:50.360
they won't necessarily fall at the same rate in a vacuum they would yes so you

00:03:48.680 --> 00:03:55.640
know if I were to drop you but Mass isn't what's determining that that's

00:03:52.280 --> 00:03:58.239
right that's true so mass the mass is

00:03:55.640 --> 00:04:03.159
not important well but on their website more mass does make it drop further it

00:04:00.959 --> 00:04:08.280
would drop further if it had more mass so they're defying the laws of

00:04:05.480 --> 00:04:13.239
physics no by not being in a physics equatable no no they're not defying

00:04:10.599 --> 00:04:18.400
anything actually if you were to drop something yeah they're not saying that

00:04:15.560 --> 00:04:22.759
it will fall at a greater rate they are saying that it will fall further because

00:04:20.479 --> 00:04:27.440
the price is lower so once it hits whatever obstacle it hits okay it

00:04:25.600 --> 00:04:32.039
actually creaters so the obstacle is actually where the recording starts yes

00:04:29.720 --> 00:04:39.680
so that's zero is or even if it wasn't it would still be low lower than the

00:04:35.520 --> 00:04:41.800
starting point yeah okay yeah y y yep y

00:04:39.680 --> 00:04:45.320
oh that works because there's a disc matter what the first resistance Point

00:04:43.560 --> 00:04:48.720
could be the first discount that's right so where the drop is a zero first

00:04:47.440 --> 00:04:58.600
discount and then there could even be a higher resistance point where further discounts are exactly wow um okay so

00:04:55.039 --> 00:05:01.919
let's go ahead and uh oh hey we've got

00:04:58.600 --> 00:05:04.520
okay let's go into our first topic right

00:05:01.919 --> 00:05:09.600
right early early on here and we're going to try and get this out of the way

00:05:06.800 --> 00:05:12.620
extremely quickly we're bringing in I I don't know people are people are asking

00:05:11.280 --> 00:05:16.560
Linda to teach us

00:05:17.360 --> 00:05:25.120
physics oh that's beautiful if there was anything that could teach us physics it

00:05:22.759 --> 00:05:34.120
would be linda.com but linda.com powers are only

00:05:29.720 --> 00:05:35.800
are only so uh magnificent and uh there

00:05:34.120 --> 00:05:40.199
there is there is a limit there is a limit to what linda.com can do teaching

00:05:38.240 --> 00:05:46.000
us physics I think Falls outside of that limit um okay so we are calling in a

00:05:42.680 --> 00:05:49.960
special guest Mr Ryan Shrout to come in

00:05:46.000 --> 00:05:51.919
and give us the once and for all he's

00:05:49.960 --> 00:05:56.360
his set and everything he's on his set usually he's like shirtless and I have

00:05:54.319 --> 00:06:00.240
to crop around around his head hold on Ryan don't talk yet I have to turn you

00:05:57.919 --> 00:06:05.720
down in the uh in the volume thing uh mixer that's the word thank

00:06:06.599 --> 00:06:15.400
you boop boop all right then I have to add

00:06:11.319 --> 00:06:18.560
you add Ryan tro everyone's saying

00:06:15.400 --> 00:06:21.680
lineus spec tips lus spec tips oh yes I

00:06:18.560 --> 00:06:23.400
am wearing glasses today isn't that fun

00:06:21.680 --> 00:06:27.840
all right so welcome to the show Mr shout we are going to put to rest the

00:06:25.680 --> 00:06:32.759
whole NVIDIA thing once and for all and we're going to kick this right off with

00:06:30.720 --> 00:06:38.680
okay this is what this is what our viewers said to us last week are you

00:06:36.080 --> 00:06:44.240
telling me you know looking us looking in the eye making eye contact are you

00:06:40.759 --> 00:06:47.520
telling me that no one at NVIDIA caught

00:06:44.240 --> 00:06:49.880
this no engineer ever looked at the spec

00:06:47.520 --> 00:06:53.919
page once it was released and caught it and mentioned this they're saying that's

00:06:51.639 --> 00:06:59.759
completely unbelievable I'd like to hear sort of the the flip side of that

00:06:56.319 --> 00:07:04.000
argument I I would believe that it was

00:06:59.759 --> 00:07:07.400
not caught until fairly recently only

00:07:04.000 --> 00:07:11.560
because the the the now we're talking

00:07:07.400 --> 00:07:15.039
about the r and uh cash size changes

00:07:11.560 --> 00:07:16.759
only not the memory pool differences uh

00:07:15.039 --> 00:07:21.520
but if you look at that like those those specific points those specifications are

00:07:19.319 --> 00:07:26.400
not really listed on GeForce.com they're not really listed on NVIDIA's website as

00:07:24.520 --> 00:07:32.360
far as I know the only place those were actually kind of published is in the

00:07:28.360 --> 00:07:34.240
reviewer guide that they sent to editors

00:07:32.360 --> 00:07:38.080
after the you know the launch day and before you know when we got all of our

00:07:35.759 --> 00:07:42.639
our test cards and stuff sure and so then it took us reading those documents

00:07:40.599 --> 00:07:48.080
and Publishing the incorrect information in your review and my review and

00:07:43.919 --> 00:07:51.199
everybody else's review out there um and

00:07:48.080 --> 00:07:53.319
I would find it uh I would find it

00:07:51.199 --> 00:07:58.599
probably difficult to believe that zero people inside a company that size took

00:07:56.800 --> 00:08:05.159
note of that like nobody said oh you know what it actually does doesn't have

00:08:00.560 --> 00:08:07.319
two Megs of L2 cach on there but I don't

00:08:05.159 --> 00:08:10.639
know if that person thought it was well it's not that big of a deal at this

00:08:08.599 --> 00:08:14.639
point the information's out there and performance is what it is and we'll just

00:08:12.039 --> 00:08:18.960
go about our business there I I I I don't think um you know I don't

00:08:17.639 --> 00:08:22.759
think there was like big meetings between PR and Engineering said oh no we

00:08:21.240 --> 00:08:26.159
have this discrepancy and should what do we do do

00:08:24.879 --> 00:08:33.200
we want to hide it and bury it or you want to bring it up and they decided to bury it I think it was more likely a

00:08:30.720 --> 00:08:36.880
the right people didn't notice uh and didn't didn't decided not to bring it up

00:08:35.120 --> 00:08:40.800
to the people that would actually care if this had been something that they had

00:08:38.159 --> 00:08:45.720
caught a week or two weeks into the 980 or 970 release I think they would have

00:08:43.120 --> 00:08:50.880
come forward with that part about it I think so okay so let me let me s i I'll

00:08:49.160 --> 00:08:55.360
I'll go and I'll play my audience's devil's advocacy once more and say okay

00:08:53.480 --> 00:08:58.519
if you were this was actually this was actually a really good point someone I

00:08:57.000 --> 00:09:04.440
feel bad because I forget their name but there was a really good point that someone brought up and that was if

00:09:02.000 --> 00:09:10.040
you're an engineer who slaved away on this GPU for literally

00:09:06.480 --> 00:09:12.560
years on launch day are you not sitting

00:09:10.040 --> 00:09:16.440
at your computer reading the reviews that people are making about this

00:09:15.000 --> 00:09:21.800
product that you spent so much of your time on like are you not even interested

00:09:18.760 --> 00:09:24.079
do you does every single one of them

00:09:21.800 --> 00:09:28.920
skip over the spec sheet because they know the

00:09:25.240 --> 00:09:31.160
spec um I would guess I I think I think

00:09:28.920 --> 00:09:38.320
I think it's it's a very valid point there I would guess that um many of the

00:09:36.040 --> 00:09:43.560
of the engineers and and marketing and and Technical people at NVIDIA or amb or

00:09:40.959 --> 00:09:47.279
Intel do what a lot of our readers do which is they kind of read that intro

00:09:46.000 --> 00:09:50.760
and then they kind of go to the end there and kind of get what what is this

00:09:49.120 --> 00:09:56.120
person's actual opinion on it I don't think they would really dive too much

00:09:52.720 --> 00:09:57.839
into um a descript like my description

00:09:56.120 --> 00:10:03.160
of the architecture that they built because they know it better than I do

00:10:00.519 --> 00:10:07.560
right maybe some of them did I you know I don't know uh and if if they would

00:10:05.680 --> 00:10:13.519
have found that discrepancy would they have brought it up to somebody

00:10:09.920 --> 00:10:15.480
probably uh it's it's a it's a tough

00:10:13.519 --> 00:10:18.640
it's a tough spot inidia in trying to convince people that that's that that

00:10:17.399 --> 00:10:24.440
wouldn't have happened I I think the memory thing is much more impactful to

00:10:21.720 --> 00:10:31.320
the consumer than the the cash and R concern necessarily um but so let's get

00:10:27.880 --> 00:10:33.680
into that then okay so okay so pla

00:10:31.320 --> 00:10:37.600
plausibly even an engineer who worked on the GPU might have missed that part of

00:10:35.600 --> 00:10:43.120
any review because why would they give a crap they don't need you to tell them

00:10:39.360 --> 00:10:46.320
how many shaders it has um but let's get

00:10:43.120 --> 00:10:49.480
into the memory speed bit because it's

00:10:46.320 --> 00:10:50.839
not the first time they've done it and

00:10:49.480 --> 00:10:56.040
it's not the first time that they haven't really talked about it so is the

00:10:52.920 --> 00:10:58.639
amount of butthurt out there Justified

00:10:56.040 --> 00:11:02.399
should there be a class action lawsuit um I

00:11:00.079 --> 00:11:06.920
don't if we get into the politics side of it is I tend to be on the uh

00:11:05.120 --> 00:11:12.680
persuasion of class action lawsuits are rarely necessary but I I I would say in

00:11:10.079 --> 00:11:16.480
this instance it's it's similar to what they and you're referring to what they

00:11:13.839 --> 00:11:19.760
did with the 550ti and the 660 Ti and how that memory configuration work

00:11:17.839 --> 00:11:22.920
compared to the 970 and it's similar in a couple ways and it's and it's

00:11:20.920 --> 00:11:28.320
different in several ways as well like the the the bandwidth discrepancy

00:11:25.880 --> 00:11:32.760
between the second pool of memory on the 660 Ti

00:11:30.000 --> 00:11:39.839
and the primary pool was not nearly the golf that we have with the 970 it didn't

00:11:35.320 --> 00:11:42.440
go from you know 184 gigs to 24 gigs per

00:11:39.839 --> 00:11:46.120
second or whatever it is yeah um and also it was a significantly higher

00:11:44.079 --> 00:11:49.800
percentage of the total frame buffer right so I think you were talking about

00:11:47.880 --> 00:11:54.240
a 2 gig frame buffer at that time of which 500 Megs was this kind of

00:11:52.360 --> 00:11:59.800
secondary pool so you're about 25% of the memory instead of8 of your memory um

00:11:57.600 --> 00:12:05.360
so it's it's so it's important there but I I would the internet tends to as you

00:12:03.360 --> 00:12:11.800
guys are well aware make things a little bit more um aggressive than they need to

00:12:08.639 --> 00:12:14.440
be maybe uh it they tend to amplify

00:12:11.800 --> 00:12:18.920
these problems more than they would be otherwise as you know the kind of the

00:12:16.480 --> 00:12:24.839
snowball begins to roll and petitions are formed and whatnot change.org yeah

00:12:22.360 --> 00:12:29.720
which Wasa changed anything the poor the most poorly wed uh petition to actually

00:12:27.320 --> 00:12:33.440
get something done I've ever read but you know what's funny I haven't read

00:12:31.560 --> 00:12:37.399
it I just assumed there was a change.org petition oh no there absolutely is oh

00:12:35.680 --> 00:12:41.040
there absolutely is and it was it was written it was maybe by no fault of his

00:12:39.800 --> 00:12:44.560
own it was written by a non-native English speaker so it's kind of like all

00:12:42.880 --> 00:12:50.000
in it broken up and it's like I don't really know what they're trying to tell me but I know what their intent is uh I

00:12:48.440 --> 00:12:55.480
I I think it's a I think it's something that's worth noting and I think NVIDIA

00:12:52.480 --> 00:12:57.480
should have if if I don't believe that

00:12:55.480 --> 00:13:02.680
they should have called it a 3.5 gig card but I think they should have been

00:12:59.639 --> 00:13:05.760
upfront with the the technical media to

00:13:02.680 --> 00:13:07.600
say hey some of this is a little bit

00:13:05.760 --> 00:13:12.880
different you know and we we both know NVIDIA very well they come up they could

00:13:09.720 --> 00:13:14.079
have made this a marketing uh positive

00:13:12.880 --> 00:13:21.040
as opposed card with overflow buffer RAM

00:13:18.600 --> 00:13:25.040
half a gig of backup memory 500 Megs of Super Cash 2.0 whatever crap they would

00:13:23.199 --> 00:13:29.199
have come up with right and they could have done that and they would have sold

00:13:26.519 --> 00:13:33.120
it as an advantage but now you come back look at it in retrospect and you you can

00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:38.360
only really see it in a negative light there's no positive to it um The only

00:13:35.880 --> 00:13:42.480
positive would be that you know this is this is something that the 500 Megs of

00:13:41.120 --> 00:13:48.519
you know super cach whatever you want to call it is actually only possible because of the way Maxwell was built if

00:13:46.279 --> 00:13:51.880
you look back at uh kind of that block diagram that I think you guys showed

00:13:49.920 --> 00:13:56.279
last week as well that that the white diagram that that shows the different

00:13:53.639 --> 00:13:59.279
blocks um had they wanted to do that before they would have had to disable

00:13:57.600 --> 00:14:05.199
the entire block you would have had 192bit memory bus and you would have 3

00:14:01.560 --> 00:14:07.959
gigs of Graphics memory but because of

00:14:05.199 --> 00:14:11.720
the way uh Maxwell was architected to be more modular they were able to disable

00:14:10.040 --> 00:14:15.680
just that portion of L2 and Rob to kind of help their yields and increase their

00:14:13.880 --> 00:14:21.600
their profitability on the production side and thus you were able to get 500

00:14:18.240 --> 00:14:23.399
Megs more uh of your primary frame

00:14:21.600 --> 00:14:28.399
buffer than you would have been able to get to before and you kind of have this

00:14:25.279 --> 00:14:32.680
500 Megs that you can access as this

00:14:28.399 --> 00:14:35.959
secondary portion I guess but that being

00:14:32.680 --> 00:14:37.399
said it is painfully obvious after

00:14:35.959 --> 00:14:42.480
everything has gone on over the last 10 days that this was this was not the

00:14:38.959 --> 00:14:44.399
right way to do it um yeah and they are

00:14:42.480 --> 00:14:50.320
like somebody sent me a link last week to some uh uh Law Firm that is

00:14:47.680 --> 00:14:55.440
investigating the the plans of a class action and they of course just to make

00:14:53.000 --> 00:14:59.759
feel benefit law firms anyways yeah as far as I can tell I mean they men me as

00:14:58.360 --> 00:15:03.120
in their descrip destion they kind of mention as quoted by PC perspective blah

00:15:01.680 --> 00:15:08.320
blah blah like I don't want to be involved in this I don't need I don't

00:15:05.839 --> 00:15:12.360
need any more depositions in my life I'm good yeah the funny thing about class

00:15:10.519 --> 00:15:17.600
actions is there was what that Intel Benchmark one that got resolved a little

00:15:14.120 --> 00:15:19.759
while ago where everyone got like $17 or

00:15:17.600 --> 00:15:23.000
something like that so the only the only and it was and you have to go through a

00:15:20.759 --> 00:15:27.880
filing thing for it and all this kind of stuff like so the only one who benefited

00:15:25.680 --> 00:15:31.240
lawyers yeah because most people aren't going to claim it they're just going to

00:15:28.759 --> 00:15:35.720
grab the cash anyways $17 is actually a lot for one of those if you're like a a

00:15:33.120 --> 00:15:42.120
secondary uh uh plaintiff and that I I've had ones from like back in the DDR

00:15:38.240 --> 00:15:43.959
memory days that are like $3 and $6 nice

00:15:42.120 --> 00:15:47.880
it's like I I can't imagine the amount of processing and and kind of Records

00:15:46.160 --> 00:15:51.959
keeping you have to have for that many people to be sent $3 checks that I then

00:15:50.839 --> 00:15:56.639
have to go through the process of cashing or depositing and it's you know

00:15:54.920 --> 00:16:00.839
yes the the lawyers end up on on the high side of that the intent obviously

00:15:58.680 --> 00:16:05.639
to the lawyer side is to kind of uh inhibit other companies or this company

00:16:02.720 --> 00:16:09.360
from doing that same thing again right it's more of a punitive it hurt side

00:16:07.639 --> 00:16:13.519
yeah it just doesn't really benefit consum it doesn't end up B benefiting

00:16:11.240 --> 00:16:15.920
the consumers other than unless unless that injury placed on the company

00:16:14.720 --> 00:16:20.000
benefits them in the future but they're not getting benefited for purchasing

00:16:18.160 --> 00:16:25.440
that item yeah yeah I don't think you're going to have a lawsuit that credits

00:16:21.880 --> 00:16:28.040
everybody that buys a 970 with 1/8 of

00:16:25.440 --> 00:16:32.639
the price of the card or you know or upgrade everybody to a 980 or whatever

00:16:30.800 --> 00:16:37.319
how do you calate how do you calculate worth uh worth as well because memory

00:16:35.040 --> 00:16:41.759
isn't 100% of the card so 18 isn't actually a prop yep yeah yeah okay so

00:16:40.319 --> 00:16:46.759
then the other thing that I wanted to bring you on oh for those of you who don't know this is Ryan Trout from PC

00:16:45.160 --> 00:16:53.720
perspective I realized I never really introduced him we just kind of brought him on and started talking about the 970

00:16:50.120 --> 00:16:56.880
vram gate issue um so welcome to the

00:16:53.720 --> 00:16:59.160
show Ryan thanks it's glad to finally be

00:16:56.880 --> 00:17:03.240
on here you know thanks we were recording all that previous stuff right

00:17:00.600 --> 00:17:06.640
because it was pretty good so uh jumping jumping forward to the other thing I've

00:17:05.160 --> 00:17:10.919
got my NVIDIA sweater on by the way I don't know if you noticed I did I did

00:17:08.799 --> 00:17:15.640
yeah I'm I'm I'm just I'm messing with everybody because I'm G to go and play

00:17:13.079 --> 00:17:20.480
Devil's Advocate against NVIDIA okay while wearing my NVIDIA sweater that's

00:17:17.799 --> 00:17:24.079
like my objective on the stream today I'm just kind of having fun with it I

00:17:22.000 --> 00:17:29.320
got a really fun email from someone about um how I'm an NVIDIA apologist and

00:17:27.720 --> 00:17:34.200
there was some terrible punctu in the email it was it was pretty funny

00:17:30.840 --> 00:17:37.760
apologist and Unapologetic are so

00:17:34.200 --> 00:17:40.440
overused now oh my God I'm

00:17:37.760 --> 00:17:44.559
unapologetically in behind this bu shut up I got a we got we got more than my

00:17:42.919 --> 00:17:48.440
fair share of those comments as well if you look through uh those couple of

00:17:46.160 --> 00:17:53.120
stories from last week but I did do that so let's move on to the g-sync one

00:17:50.360 --> 00:17:58.360
g-sync without a gsync module do you realistically think now that uh okay

00:17:56.760 --> 00:18:04.880
here's here's the million-dollar question are we heading towards a future

00:18:02.080 --> 00:18:09.600
where a monitor has the hardware in the same way that a motherboard has a PCI

00:18:07.400 --> 00:18:15.039
Express slot so where the monitor has the hardware to realistically operate

00:18:11.679 --> 00:18:16.360
perfectly with uh free sync or gsync and

00:18:15.039 --> 00:18:21.039
it's just going to come down to the monitor manufacturer to certify or not

00:18:19.120 --> 00:18:26.080
certify with a given maker is that where we're headed uh I think that's where

00:18:22.840 --> 00:18:29.320
we're headed yes I think the the qu the

00:18:26.080 --> 00:18:32.120
real issue here is when is that going to

00:18:29.320 --> 00:18:35.720
occur right so the the kind of controversy around the GYN g-sync thing

00:18:34.120 --> 00:18:39.679
was that well at first the guy claimed that he hacked a driver to make it work

00:18:38.000 --> 00:18:43.520
when that that wasn't really the case but the insinuation was that oh look

00:18:41.159 --> 00:18:47.520
g-sync modules are never really required you could always just do this and that's

00:18:45.840 --> 00:18:53.320
that's 100% not the case like if you look at desktop displays that existed to

00:18:51.720 --> 00:18:56.760
that exist today and that have existed for the past year that g-sync has been

00:18:54.919 --> 00:19:00.320
around you could not do that with currently shipping scalers and currently

00:18:58.400 --> 00:19:05.760
shipping you know display connection standards um but remember when AMD you

00:19:04.159 --> 00:19:10.000
know like I think it was October or November of 2013 when we were out in

00:19:07.480 --> 00:19:14.760
Montreal an NVIDIA demo ging for the first time that next January at CES AMD

00:19:13.080 --> 00:19:18.919
had a laptop and they said oh look we can do it too and they showed a demo of

00:19:16.720 --> 00:19:23.240
a variable refresh screen not to me because I'm not one of the cool kids but

00:19:20.919 --> 00:19:27.520
whatever I hey you know well that you take that up with them that's I I try

00:19:24.760 --> 00:19:31.640
not to take the blame for that one um but they did it on a mobile form form

00:19:28.880 --> 00:19:36.760
factor for a reason right it was in a mobile form factor you have uh EDP uh

00:19:34.360 --> 00:19:40.559
embedded DisplayPort you have complete control and knowledge over all of the

00:19:38.919 --> 00:19:44.120
timing controllers and the display controllers between your GPU and the

00:19:42.240 --> 00:19:49.320
panel you know everything in the pipeline which you do not know on a

00:19:46.400 --> 00:19:53.600
desktop configuration so right uh desktop monitors are getting there and

00:19:51.960 --> 00:19:57.240
that's why that's this is essentially what AMD's free sync is kind of has been

00:19:55.720 --> 00:20:01.000
waiting for right there's a reason why freesync is not out and it's not really

00:19:58.919 --> 00:20:05.120
because AMD is holding back on anything they need the technology to be out there

00:20:02.480 --> 00:20:11.880
and they need stuff to actually work and function and what the mobile g-sync kind

00:20:08.360 --> 00:20:14.320
of story showed us was that NVIDIA knows

00:20:11.880 --> 00:20:18.720
this and um they also know that in the mobile form factor the mobile displays

00:20:16.480 --> 00:20:25.320
you still you know all that information and they will go through a g-sync module

00:20:22.039 --> 00:20:28.240
less certification process for mobile

00:20:25.320 --> 00:20:34.600
variants of gsync at the very least but on the upside it's still up in year

00:20:30.840 --> 00:20:36.720
right right and I mean there's there's

00:20:34.600 --> 00:20:40.799
you got to assume NVIDIA is working on there like I I okay last question last

00:20:39.600 --> 00:20:45.559
question about this because I know your wife wants you home at some point so do

00:20:43.360 --> 00:20:51.280
you think what do you think NVIDIA's plan was were they looking to Kickstart

00:20:48.480 --> 00:20:56.400
an entry into the display scaler business with a killer app Feature like

00:20:54.080 --> 00:21:00.559
g-sync was that the objective like was the was the idea okay we've got this

00:20:58.159 --> 00:21:05.080
totally non-cost effective solution but we're going to ramp up the business

00:21:02.640 --> 00:21:08.240
volume we are going to rev two it rev three it rev four it we're going to get

00:21:06.360 --> 00:21:13.840
into the display scaler business and we're going to make that work seamlessly

00:21:09.679 --> 00:21:18.480
with our gpus or flip side was the

00:21:13.840 --> 00:21:20.919
objective to actually have an exclusive

00:21:18.480 --> 00:21:25.960
feature and they just didn't think that AMD and the scaler manufacturers would

00:21:22.919 --> 00:21:28.679
get their crap together so

00:21:25.960 --> 00:21:33.080
quickly um I don't think they necessarily wanted to enter into the

00:21:30.720 --> 00:21:37.159
scaler Market specifically I don't think that's that's like a super profitable

00:21:35.039 --> 00:21:42.159
business that they were trying to work their way in to um I what I what I

00:21:40.039 --> 00:21:47.000
really think occurred is if you and I have quite a bit of

00:21:45.279 --> 00:21:51.520
background on this is like if you they they knew panel self- refresh was a

00:21:49.240 --> 00:21:55.279
thing right on mobile and on cell phones on laptops and cell phones they knew

00:21:52.919 --> 00:21:59.240
what it was and they figured out that hey we could use that for the alternate

00:21:57.320 --> 00:22:04.799
purposes rather than saving power to improve a gaming experience and in order

00:22:03.000 --> 00:22:08.679
to do that they wanted to be first to the market with it they didn't want to

00:22:06.000 --> 00:22:12.919
have to you know to submit a standard to visa and wait for it to be approved and

00:22:10.960 --> 00:22:16.400
thus you know AMD and Intel and NVIDIA all be on the same um pathway right you

00:22:15.440 --> 00:22:21.480
know that nobody would have any particular Advantage so they went through with developing the logic for it

00:22:20.400 --> 00:22:25.799
working with Partners to make the displays and kind of integrating it

00:22:23.520 --> 00:22:29.480
first because they wanted to be the uh the one kind of pushing the variable

00:22:27.279 --> 00:22:33.320
refresh technology forward which they clearly had done as much as AMD deserves

00:22:31.760 --> 00:22:37.559
credit with mantle for pushing the development of direct X12 NVIDIA

00:22:35.840 --> 00:22:43.480
deserves credit with g-sync for pushing ahead adaptive sync and DP 1.2a plus and

00:22:41.000 --> 00:22:49.679
all that right right and what I what I think will be the most interesting thing

00:22:45.799 --> 00:22:51.640
to see is uh as we move into later this

00:22:49.679 --> 00:22:55.840
year and freesync monitors are widely available and they are shown to work

00:22:53.960 --> 00:22:59.320
mostly reliably and and pretty closely match the experience that we have with

00:22:57.279 --> 00:23:05.279
uh gsync displays will NVIDIA continue to require a g-sync

00:23:02.400 --> 00:23:10.240
module in their desktop displays and I think they will but not for the same

00:23:08.679 --> 00:23:17.919
reasons that they have them in there today I think that NVIDIA has more plans

00:23:13.120 --> 00:23:20.520
for display technology changes than just

00:23:17.919 --> 00:23:23.960
variable refresh and in order to do that they want they need to have a piece of

00:23:21.880 --> 00:23:28.840
logic on the other side it doesn't mean gsync monitor shipping today will have

00:23:25.640 --> 00:23:31.679
those features but that you know gsync

00:23:28.840 --> 00:23:35.520
2.0 whatever that happens to be maybe they introduce some more interesting

00:23:33.120 --> 00:23:40.760
things other than just a variable refresh or maybe they just straight up

00:23:37.520 --> 00:23:43.480
segment the desktop and the mobile gpus

00:23:40.760 --> 00:23:48.440
that way they just say well look uh 980 supports whatever this new feature is

00:23:45.440 --> 00:23:49.880
with a g-sync display and 980m doesn't

00:23:48.440 --> 00:23:54.640
have it I mean they do that kind of thing all the time even stuff like um

00:23:52.360 --> 00:23:58.120
Shadow play it's like oh it's desktop first or whatever else the case may be

00:23:56.760 --> 00:24:01.760
and they might just not roll it out I mean even even in its current form the

00:23:59.919 --> 00:24:07.840
for what we saw in this kind of alpha leak of mobile gsync it's it is not at

00:24:05.279 --> 00:24:13.480
feature parody with gsync on the desktop right once you dip below that 25 or so

00:24:10.520 --> 00:24:17.960
frames per second Mark there you know on the desktop g-sync there's an algorithm

00:24:15.360 --> 00:24:21.279
in that in that chip that does work in terms of figuring out has it been too

00:24:19.679 --> 00:24:24.880
long do I need to refresh and it doubles up frame rates at certain points and it

00:24:22.960 --> 00:24:28.080
and it keeps the experience better when you go under that with the mobile

00:24:26.520 --> 00:24:31.520
version it won't have that capability because the tcons don't have that kind

00:24:29.640 --> 00:24:36.679
of logic they don't have the same size buffer um and so it's doubtful that they

00:24:34.960 --> 00:24:41.159
will ever have feature parody between the two I don't know if they'll brand it

00:24:38.840 --> 00:24:46.000
differently like gsync mobile as we kind of have branded it for them or gsync

00:24:43.200 --> 00:24:53.000
light or whatever it is uh but they're usually better at it than uh SLI light

00:24:49.279 --> 00:24:55.600
or gsync light but if you do lit te then

00:24:53.000 --> 00:25:01.840
it's fine right dynamic dynamic super gsync maybe they'll do Li to TI yeah

00:24:59.840 --> 00:25:04.640
yeah they they have they have a tremendous marketing department I'm sure

00:25:03.279 --> 00:25:10.360
they're better than us at coming up with this crap so all right well I think that was that

00:25:08.559 --> 00:25:14.960
was pretty much it I can take off my NVIDIA hoodie now thankfully because I'm

00:25:12.480 --> 00:25:19.320
so was the razor armband supposed to look like an NVIDIA thing no no I'm just

00:25:17.159 --> 00:25:23.640
wearing that because I I have an armband and my I've been this weird thing with

00:25:21.720 --> 00:25:27.240
my wrist lately it's been really cold when I sit and use the mouse so I've

00:25:24.880 --> 00:25:30.840
been wearing the thing just for warmth seems to make it a little more com if

00:25:28.600 --> 00:25:34.080
that's happening you are on the edge of carpal

00:25:31.919 --> 00:25:39.159
tunnel yeah well I've been on the edge a long time then well welcome to the fold

00:25:37.240 --> 00:25:43.320
it Happ it goes away it's fine it's only it's only a a a lifelong issue that

00:25:41.840 --> 00:25:46.760
you'll have for the remainder of your Living Years so yeah it was really bad a

00:25:44.919 --> 00:25:51.640
couple years ago actually about three years ago I was having a lot of trouble

00:25:48.799 --> 00:25:58.760
with uh with cold and and pain in my wrist and uh old people problems wow

00:25:55.520 --> 00:26:00.679
guess we can continue that does hurt

00:25:58.760 --> 00:26:07.520
I'm I think I'm older than both of you right line probably combined I think

00:26:02.760 --> 00:26:07.520
yeah oh ouch that hurts

00:26:07.799 --> 00:26:15.840
ouch yeah you're I think you're a little older than me I'm 28 yeah I'm 33 okay

00:26:12.600 --> 00:26:18.039
yeah damn it little all right well I

00:26:15.840 --> 00:26:22.120
think uh yeah I'll I'll let you get to your thing I think I had said we we'd

00:26:20.039 --> 00:26:25.679
kick it kick kick you off at five we're also dropping frames on the stream that

00:26:23.919 --> 00:26:30.960
I think are due to the uh to the video call right now so we got to let you go

00:26:28.760 --> 00:26:35.039
but are you hitting up with your are you hitting that 3.5 gab frame buffer limit

00:26:33.360 --> 00:26:40.799
and you're going into the secondary pool of memory maybe is that much slower it's

00:26:37.399 --> 00:26:43.120
much slower I think I what do I deserve

00:26:40.799 --> 00:26:46.760
in exchange for this no see this is the this is the like backup memory area

00:26:45.559 --> 00:26:53.440
right so that's why it's still working at all we should be thankful that the stream is still on and then it's not

00:26:50.799 --> 00:26:57.520
just dropping some frames this is this is the wait no I don't have my shill

00:26:55.240 --> 00:27:04.039
sweater on there that's much better memory boost .0 now it's like a shill

00:26:59.799 --> 00:27:05.399
Shaw right yeah like shill scarf nice as

00:27:04.039 --> 00:27:10.840
long as it doesn't turn into like a shill noose then we're good all right

00:27:07.760 --> 00:27:12.320
all right so before before before I go

00:27:10.840 --> 00:27:16.480
plug uh before you end your show go ahead and plug our YouTube channels and

00:27:13.880 --> 00:27:20.679
websites and everything so we can uh get do that now do that now want me do all

00:27:17.679 --> 00:27:22.200
right so pcp.com that's uh where you

00:27:20.679 --> 00:27:26.200
want to see all the stories on the 970 issue or the mobile gsync we've got that

00:27:23.840 --> 00:27:29.919
there and then uh we compete directly with lonus and Luke on YouTube right and

00:27:28.720 --> 00:27:33.679
nobody has enough time to watch any videos but if you go to youtube.com/

00:27:31.760 --> 00:27:38.679
pcper you can see some of our crap there and try to figure out what all this L

00:27:36.200 --> 00:27:41.840
red light is behind me as well the red light

00:27:39.760 --> 00:27:44.880
district we can change it we can make it a green light district but I see unlike

00:27:43.600 --> 00:27:50.120
you I decided I don't want the background to be green if I'm G to sit here and talk about NVIDIA stuff and so

00:27:48.960 --> 00:27:54.000
you but then I come on and you're wearing the the NVIDIA hoodie that we

00:27:51.960 --> 00:27:58.960
got at the gsync editor day which is it's a it's a nice shirt it really is a

00:27:55.919 --> 00:28:01.080
nice isn't it I wanted one to be honest

00:27:58.960 --> 00:28:05.279
I I feel like I feel like such a corporate [ __ ] wearing it like I I put

00:28:03.640 --> 00:28:10.279
the thing on and then so it just adds the word corporate and then thank you

00:28:07.399 --> 00:28:15.159
and then that um and that uh that super nice one we got at the Maxwell event too

00:28:12.440 --> 00:28:18.720
at the 970 event that jacket the Jack W Breer yeah that is actually really nice

00:28:17.159 --> 00:28:22.799
I had I have worn that I when I went to Montreal a couple weeks ago I took that

00:28:20.159 --> 00:28:26.399
it was very nice um but I I don't let any I don't let myself wear it when I go

00:28:24.679 --> 00:28:31.640
out to other events I don't let myself wear it when we're on video like uh if

00:28:28.960 --> 00:28:35.039
Allan's here doing like a a storage video with me and he's got like an Intel

00:28:33.480 --> 00:28:38.519
skull logo t-shirt I'm like sorry you got to go change shirts we're not do on

00:28:36.519 --> 00:28:43.080
that I'm not gonna I'm not gonna bring those comments upon us so but hey I mean

00:28:41.080 --> 00:28:46.960
thanks for having me on guys and good luck the rest of your show all right

00:28:44.640 --> 00:28:51.399
take care man good to talk to you as always see

00:28:48.720 --> 00:28:58.559
you oh hold on hold on let me there we go you're

00:28:54.360 --> 00:29:01.080
good no thanks Ryan okay byebye by right

00:28:58.559 --> 00:29:05.200
all right so guys uh welcome back to our regularly scheduled content where we

00:29:03.519 --> 00:29:12.519
talk about things that happened this week yeah so the LG G4 is rumored to

00:29:08.320 --> 00:29:15.519
feature a 3K display let's go ahead and

00:29:12.519 --> 00:29:17.159
uh oh hold on a second here let me just

00:29:15.519 --> 00:29:20.720
make sure that I've while you're setting that up I'm going to do call outs for

00:29:18.519 --> 00:29:26.000
the U Starcraft League winners of January Kane won the official League

00:29:23.919 --> 00:29:32.799
which is like the not the tech Syndicate Kane no oh okay different no um k a y n

00:29:31.200 --> 00:29:37.480
won the official League which is like the UL members league and Commander Fett

00:29:35.919 --> 00:29:43.240
won the public league which is the best score against the

00:29:39.120 --> 00:29:45.799
public okay that is what is going on

00:29:43.240 --> 00:29:53.840
here I don't really oh I know what the issue is the issue is that my um my

00:29:50.519 --> 00:29:58.200
screen sharing is no longer working is

00:29:53.840 --> 00:30:04.120
is the is the a media plugged in yeah uh

00:29:58.200 --> 00:30:07.360
um did it fall out okay so

00:30:04.120 --> 00:30:08.919
Source uh try a different plug we can

00:30:07.360 --> 00:30:15.799
try again could it be a USB compatibility thing that's not it uh I I

00:30:12.519 --> 00:30:19.159
straight up don't understand uh what's

00:30:15.799 --> 00:30:21.440
going on here so we can remove that and

00:30:19.159 --> 00:30:30.480
then we can add camera and it will be correct wow I love

00:30:25.760 --> 00:30:31.880
this show okay so let's go ahead and the

00:30:30.480 --> 00:30:36.399
W show where we talk about things that happened last week carpel tunnel being

00:30:33.840 --> 00:30:41.039
old and we don't prep things yeah uh so the LG G4 to feature a 3K display this

00:30:39.519 --> 00:30:46.559
is rumored it showed up in some of the specs uh it's Al the rumors also point

00:30:42.960 --> 00:30:49.159
to a slightly smaller 5.3 in display

00:30:46.559 --> 00:30:53.480
it'll be 1620 by 2880 pixels which would be a pixel

00:30:51.360 --> 00:30:58.519
density of around 626 pixels per inch which is very

00:30:56.279 --> 00:31:05.600
impressive and completely necessary um the G3 had a 5.5 in display

00:31:02.080 --> 00:31:08.720
and a 2560 x440 uh p screen which

00:31:05.600 --> 00:31:12.720
resulted in 538 PPI and that was already

00:31:08.720 --> 00:31:14.840
kind of ridiculous so from 538 to 626 I

00:31:12.720 --> 00:31:18.399
already straight up couldn't tell um I don't have terrible eyes I'm wearing

00:31:16.440 --> 00:31:25.279
glasses this week but my close-up vision is just fine um and it doesn't make a

00:31:22.279 --> 00:31:27.399
difference past about 1080P and now

00:31:25.279 --> 00:31:32.279
going past 1440p it definitely doesn't make a difference what I would like to

00:31:28.840 --> 00:31:36.080
see instead is higher density displays

00:31:32.279 --> 00:31:38.200
in other form factors um most notably on

00:31:36.080 --> 00:31:44.200
the desktop because the issue actually this is something I talk about in our

00:31:39.440 --> 00:31:46.880
XPS 13 review um so that display is also

00:31:44.200 --> 00:31:54.639
a 3K display and the notebook is also available in a 1080p version Dell quotes

00:31:50.200 --> 00:31:58.360
the 1080ps battery life as

00:31:54.639 --> 00:32:01.519
25% higher again you can force a Mobile

00:31:58.360 --> 00:32:03.559
screen to be smaller smaller well you're

00:32:01.519 --> 00:32:07.960
talking about laptops on phones you can force different resolutions oh yeah no

00:32:06.039 --> 00:32:14.480
that's fine I just mean the additional power required to drive all these pixels

00:32:11.639 --> 00:32:18.960
is something that I don't know if I necessarily agree on with a mobile

00:32:16.440 --> 00:32:26.039
device because and it should be noted that on the XPS 13 2015 found that's a

00:32:22.159 --> 00:32:27.960
lot of numbers um the 1080p models also

00:32:26.039 --> 00:32:32.000
tend to have lower spec CPUs so there's going to be some savings there as well

00:32:29.080 --> 00:32:36.559
and Dell is obviously just approximating you know these higher power models get

00:32:33.679 --> 00:32:41.639
about this much less so it's 12 hours on the high-end one and 15 hours on the

00:32:39.360 --> 00:32:44.960
low-end one in of rated battery it's a very significant difference yeah

00:32:43.159 --> 00:32:49.080
actually and I got to look at it and go well hold on a second like if we just if

00:32:47.039 --> 00:32:54.320
we just didn't worry so much about all these pixels that especially especially

00:32:52.559 --> 00:33:00.960
on a laptop where you're running Windows 8 and scaling is a complete disaster

00:32:58.279 --> 00:33:05.600
just doesn't make a ton of sense to meh all right Microsoft now pays ad block

00:33:03.679 --> 00:33:08.799
plus are you posting this one thing sure one thing we really need to remember

00:33:06.840 --> 00:33:13.279
with this article is that ad block plus is not the same as all the different

00:33:10.360 --> 00:33:19.440
versions there's block ad block plus other things that block ads um so this

00:33:16.960 --> 00:33:24.679
is specifically ad block plus who we've who we've given a hard time to on this

00:33:21.880 --> 00:33:30.720
show in the past about the whole Mafia style yeah um yeah you get paid for

00:33:28.360 --> 00:33:36.720
security or what protection protection money yeah yeah yeah um but it looks

00:33:33.000 --> 00:33:39.440
like Microsoft Google Amazon and tabula

00:33:36.720 --> 00:33:45.399
are all paying to have advertisements go unblocked on their websites for users

00:33:41.679 --> 00:33:46.799
that are running ad block plus so I

00:33:45.399 --> 00:33:51.919
don't know I don't know who they're trying to make happy here um obviously

00:33:50.080 --> 00:33:59.159
their users are not going to be super thrilled unless unless their users are

00:33:56.600 --> 00:34:05.320
those users who are only trying to block malicious ads for example yeah yeah and

00:34:02.760 --> 00:34:09.879
if if the idea was okay you know a site like

00:34:06.399 --> 00:34:11.200
microsoft.com is probably vetting the uh

00:34:09.879 --> 00:34:16.040
you know the ads making sure that there's no malicious code in them um if

00:34:14.040 --> 00:34:22.599
the idea is they're kind of going okay yeah you're paying us for the service of

00:34:19.399 --> 00:34:24.560
validating that your ads are not

00:34:22.599 --> 00:34:28.599
malicious okay I've had enough Devil's Advocate this is such nonsense yeah it's

00:34:27.280 --> 00:34:33.919
it's kind of ridiculous but I kind of think they're all ridiculous so I don't

00:34:31.320 --> 00:34:37.399
know um I'm kind of surprised like I don't know how much exactly they're

00:34:35.839 --> 00:34:41.520
paying but I'm kind of surprised these big companies are actually paying for

00:34:39.079 --> 00:34:46.240
that well the way that okay the way that the whole program works is much smaller

00:34:44.000 --> 00:34:50.639
websites like very small websites don't have to pay I think they just submit uh

00:34:48.679 --> 00:34:56.760
they they just submit an application to be whitelisted whereas much larger

00:34:53.119 --> 00:34:59.320
businesses are are intended to pay and

00:34:56.760 --> 00:35:03.839
guess Microsoft is prob doing it for MSN msn.com or whatever their like kind

00:35:02.280 --> 00:35:07.520
of homepage thingy where I think there is actually a bunch of ad I would imagine it's kind of across the board

00:35:06.440 --> 00:35:14.000
yeah but that's probably the one they're actually worried about MSN video would be another big one man the ads are

00:35:11.280 --> 00:35:18.280
obnoxious on MSN video every once in a while I kind of fall down the rabbit

00:35:16.079 --> 00:35:22.760
hole on on MSN video because they tend to have a lot of really short like 105

00:35:20.560 --> 00:35:27.000
second you know stupid Clips clickable things yeah like and I'll just kind of

00:35:24.760 --> 00:35:31.440
and then I'll watch like another 30 second ad to see a 10-second video I'll

00:35:29.240 --> 00:35:37.359
be like yeah I've had enough and then that that that saves the rest of my

00:35:33.200 --> 00:35:39.880
evening um Time Warner

00:35:37.359 --> 00:35:44.920
Cable this is actually a great article this is posted by oh we should go back

00:35:41.960 --> 00:35:49.880
and uh Warrior surprising sorry oh oh keep Cy Warrior posted the 3K display

00:35:47.440 --> 00:35:53.680
one uh Good Bites posted about Adblock Plus and this one is from Victoria

00:35:52.160 --> 00:35:58.520
Secret do you want to go ahead and post this in the chat sure uh Time Warner

00:35:57.000 --> 00:36:03.319
Cables 97% profit margin on high-speed internet

00:36:01.839 --> 00:36:09.400
service exposed um actually the uh the digging

00:36:07.760 --> 00:36:14.680
that was done by the author of this article is not particularly deep I mean

00:36:12.880 --> 00:36:19.800
all he really had to do was look at some of the numbers that they are providing

00:36:16.599 --> 00:36:21.640
us on the the telephone and uh on The

00:36:19.800 --> 00:36:27.119
Voice side of things and and some other stuff and then kind of reverse engineer

00:36:24.560 --> 00:36:31.319
the numbers for high-speed internet and it raised is some really interesting

00:36:28.800 --> 00:36:40.119
questions if they're making 97% margin so he worked it out and he

00:36:36.160 --> 00:36:44.400
figures H where is it their average

00:36:40.119 --> 00:36:48.240
subscription is 40 something $

00:36:44.400 --> 00:36:49.839
43.92 per month and their average cost

00:36:48.240 --> 00:36:54.119
is a132 per month for the service that

00:36:52.480 --> 00:36:59.480
they're providing to that customer and he he raises some really interesting

00:36:56.079 --> 00:37:02.920
questions how did regulatory body ever

00:36:59.480 --> 00:37:05.160
look at this yeah who makes 97% margin

00:37:02.920 --> 00:37:09.160
on anything especially where it's been

00:37:07.440 --> 00:37:13.000
proven that there's essentially no competition in terms of isps in the

00:37:10.839 --> 00:37:18.800
states yeah it's esentially it's essentially localized monopolies yeah

00:37:15.079 --> 00:37:21.040
which is ridiculous so you're basically

00:37:18.800 --> 00:37:24.599
forcing Because the Internet is basically required at this point you're

00:37:22.920 --> 00:37:29.599
basically forcing people to buy something that you are serving them at a

00:37:26.440 --> 00:37:33.720
97% profit margin which is

00:37:29.599 --> 00:37:37.160
insanity that's absolutely Insanity oh

00:37:33.720 --> 00:37:39.400
man it's also interesting that the uh

00:37:37.160 --> 00:37:44.079
reported uh it's it's reported that fees have increased by about 100% in a matter

00:37:41.720 --> 00:37:50.319
of two years for some customers yeah this was this seems like this is an

00:37:45.839 --> 00:37:52.839
article that uh the the author kind of

00:37:50.319 --> 00:37:58.079
had close to his heart because uh he was actually talking about how his personal

00:37:55.200 --> 00:38:04.760
Time Warner Cable basic triple play bill went up 112% in just 2 years from the

00:38:01.520 --> 00:38:07.839
advertised price of $89.99 to

00:38:04.760 --> 00:38:11.079
$19.77 that's insane it includes all

00:38:07.839 --> 00:38:14.960
kinds of fees and SAR charges and Rental

00:38:11.079 --> 00:38:17.640
this and uh one of them is a is a is a

00:38:14.960 --> 00:38:23.560
defunct social contract charge which is an extra $5 a month that hasn't actually

00:38:20.599 --> 00:38:28.520
been required apparently since 2001 um oh my God

00:38:27.599 --> 00:38:33.040
you should be able to get your money back for that yeah CU isn't that it

00:38:30.920 --> 00:38:38.000
shouldn't okay social cont what is that okay I think the fee was implemented and

00:38:35.920 --> 00:38:41.079
then taken off the bill but then the money is still being charged or

00:38:39.680 --> 00:38:48.599
something like that okay so time water is not necessarily taking that five no they're just jacking up the price yeah

00:38:44.359 --> 00:38:51.839
they're taking a $5 yeah

00:38:48.599 --> 00:38:53.560
no not necessarily that $5 is it a form

00:38:51.839 --> 00:38:58.560
of tax though like is this a government regulated thing uh I don't know too much

00:38:56.720 --> 00:39:02.800
about the social contract thing yeah cuz social contract sounds like some sort of

00:39:01.280 --> 00:39:06.680
oh yeah it was supposed to be to fund the upgrade to the network yeah yeah

00:39:05.119 --> 00:39:13.000
yeah like it that's what it was supposed to be for okay uh but oh so for it to

00:39:10.440 --> 00:39:19.040
funds I guess it could just go directly to them yeah oh that's if the Network's

00:39:15.560 --> 00:39:21.000
good enough then uh hey hey and it's not

00:39:19.040 --> 00:39:26.040
so hey so hey yeah how how about them social

00:39:23.720 --> 00:39:31.119
contract service charges you want to upgrade some things please I'm going to

00:39:28.160 --> 00:39:36.200
enter into my own social contract well some cities are they're installing their

00:39:33.200 --> 00:39:38.000
own networks and it's actually baller so

00:39:36.200 --> 00:39:43.680
um yeah so one of the ones I didn't bring up was franchise fees um yeah what

00:39:42.079 --> 00:39:50.040
does that even mean super gross so this is all based on 2013 records but I I

00:39:47.079 --> 00:39:55.440
mean I knew that they were doing just fine all we have to do is look at the

00:39:53.359 --> 00:39:59.920
you know all the commercial space they buy on TV and all the stadiums that

00:39:57.599 --> 00:40:03.079
these companies name and all this stuff we could look at it and go okay they're

00:40:01.359 --> 00:40:08.599
spending all that money and they're still doing fine um but I I had no idea

00:40:07.319 --> 00:40:14.960
it was 3% of the actual of it was the ACT about

00:40:12.160 --> 00:40:19.160
what like closed perfume and makeup are some of the most cuz printer ink yes

00:40:17.119 --> 00:40:24.040
printer ink like all those things that are just ridiculous where like the the

00:40:21.359 --> 00:40:28.960
nicest bottle of wine like ever is still very comparable to printer Inc in terms

00:40:26.440 --> 00:40:32.520
of prices uh I I don't remember that was an article a long time ago I had to I

00:40:30.640 --> 00:40:37.079
probably quoted it slightly wrong but it was ridiculous um yeah the bit about

00:40:35.280 --> 00:40:40.319
drinking the printer ink instead of the wine I think that was the part you

00:40:38.280 --> 00:40:47.079
screwed up that wasn't in there I didn't say that no you didn't anyways uh but it

00:40:43.640 --> 00:40:49.359
was funnier yes uh like that's nuts

00:40:47.079 --> 00:40:54.599
though that's absolutely ridiculous I wish our margin was 97% I guess what I

00:40:52.440 --> 00:41:02.200
could do is just slash all of your salaries I think that's illegal

00:40:57.680 --> 00:41:05.480
well this isn't this no that that isn't

00:41:02.200 --> 00:41:07.839
legal I said I think that is il legal

00:41:05.480 --> 00:41:11.520
isn't would mean that it's legal right I don't know if what they're doing is like

00:41:09.319 --> 00:41:14.400
actually documented as legal because there's there's questions to be brought

00:41:12.920 --> 00:41:17.760
up I this is a very old conversation so I won't delve into it for very long but

00:41:16.079 --> 00:41:21.000
where the government's like here's money to build this stuff then you just don't

00:41:19.440 --> 00:41:25.160
do it that should be under contract that should be illegal I don't think there's

00:41:23.240 --> 00:41:28.440
any punishment for that yeah there should be something there should be

00:41:26.960 --> 00:41:32.680
anyway we should carry on because that's a very old

00:41:30.040 --> 00:41:36.359
very goes out of business in Canada and says they're going to have amazing deals

00:41:34.319 --> 00:41:40.359
and my wife goes there on Thursday there should be amazing deals was there

00:41:38.000 --> 00:41:44.760
nothing apparently the stores were just the store was just like packed and

00:41:42.480 --> 00:41:48.560
people were buying things but she ended up leaving and going to Superstore to

00:41:46.760 --> 00:41:52.960
buy some garbage cans for the new office because she knew they were actually on

00:41:50.160 --> 00:41:57.040
sale um she the electronics department apparently was so full of people that

00:41:55.560 --> 00:42:02.480
there was a lineup to get in so she didn't didn't actually go to the electronics but apparently just cuz I I

00:42:01.200 --> 00:42:06.240
sent her there cuz we're going to need some Sundries for the new office and

00:42:04.599 --> 00:42:09.920
things like toilet paper you know cleaning supplies um stuff like that and

00:42:08.760 --> 00:42:16.000
I was like yeah just pick up some of that stuff I mean it should be like uber liquidation sale and apparently it's as

00:42:14.359 --> 00:42:19.520
simple as just saying you're having a liquidation sale and people come and

00:42:17.760 --> 00:42:23.760
they buy things they should just they should do that thing okay I don't know

00:42:21.599 --> 00:42:28.240
about you viewers but this is a total thing here grand opening and and like

00:42:26.079 --> 00:42:35.319
final closing sales thing furniture stores I swear every single furniture

00:42:31.000 --> 00:42:37.040
store on like um Bridgeport Road and uh

00:42:35.319 --> 00:42:41.920
and King George Boulevard and Richmond and sui like like you you drive through

00:42:39.599 --> 00:42:46.319
furniture storeand and especially the smaller ones not the Big Chain ones like

00:42:44.599 --> 00:42:53.280
half of them are having their moving sale or or liquidation sale or closing

00:42:50.040 --> 00:42:56.200
down final inventory close out s grand

00:42:53.280 --> 00:43:00.079
opening for like six years yeah there's actually a documented thing where one of

00:42:57.800 --> 00:43:05.760
the stores in BC had a grand opening sale for years and I mean like the the

00:43:03.240 --> 00:43:10.160
sign is faded you know yeah yeah yeah like it's old and faded and ripping what

00:43:07.720 --> 00:43:16.319
did you buy someone else's used Grand Opening sale sign and put it on or if

00:43:12.480 --> 00:43:21.319
you just ridiculous um all right so

00:43:16.319 --> 00:43:25.520
there's ah yes a new Intel consumer SSD

00:43:21.319 --> 00:43:27.200
750 series uh pops up on a compatibility

00:43:25.520 --> 00:43:31.960
list so this is cool the code name is August Ridge it's the month I'm born in

00:43:29.400 --> 00:43:37.440
so it's probably like Illuminati confirmed anyway um it was on the road

00:43:35.559 --> 00:43:42.480
map for releasing Q4 2014 but that time has passed we're

00:43:39.960 --> 00:43:46.200
still hoping we can see it soon and if we do then that'll make Intel the first

00:43:44.559 --> 00:43:51.359
one to deliver an NVMe compliant SSD so that would be an

00:43:49.280 --> 00:43:56.200
SSD that doesn't rely on the oldfashioned

00:43:53.040 --> 00:43:58.000
ahci uh software layer to interface with

00:43:56.200 --> 00:44:03.000
the controller so it would actually it's optimized for lower latency uh most

00:44:00.839 --> 00:44:06.880
mostly lower latency it's optimized for the lower latency PCI Express

00:44:04.599 --> 00:44:11.720
connections that new ssds are going to be connecting to whether it's over m.2

00:44:08.760 --> 00:44:17.920
or over a standard PCI Express slot um capacities will be 180 240 360 480 and

00:44:14.480 --> 00:44:19.520
600 gigs and

00:44:17.920 --> 00:44:24.839
um yeah that's honestly there isn't a ton

00:44:22.000 --> 00:44:27.800
to say I'm excited to see them in person fast rests are good yes for lots of

00:44:26.880 --> 00:44:34.280
things I me here's something you might not even consider you know if your SSD in your

00:44:32.160 --> 00:44:37.040
laptop or your phone is much higher performance okay ph's a bad example

00:44:35.720 --> 00:44:44.599
because we're not getting this in phones but on your laptop uh is is using uh PCI

00:44:41.200 --> 00:44:46.640
Express Bus and is using NVMe the faster

00:44:44.599 --> 00:44:50.960
it can complete any transactions that it has to the more it's sitting there idle

00:44:48.960 --> 00:44:54.920
instead of working so as long as we get nice power efficient super high-speed

00:44:52.880 --> 00:45:01.280
ssds it's kind of like um it's kind of like how faster Wi-Fi

00:44:57.640 --> 00:45:03.240
actually benefits more than just you

00:45:01.280 --> 00:45:06.480
know oh okay there's less stuff sitting in the air essentially that's right

00:45:04.680 --> 00:45:09.480
that's right it makes everything else that's on that Network faster because

00:45:08.160 --> 00:45:16.240
you're not using up as much air time it's good yeah Sony has sold Sony Online

00:45:14.240 --> 00:45:20.000
Entertainment I that's I'm actually kind of surprised they sold it especially

00:45:17.559 --> 00:45:24.839
with the timing because H1 Z1 despite the highly controversial launch actually

00:45:22.960 --> 00:45:30.240
seemed to be doing pretty well well okay launch into early activ Early Access

00:45:28.480 --> 00:45:33.400
sorry I keep not posting links I keep forgetting to say who I've done I've

00:45:31.839 --> 00:45:37.240
posted all the other ones it's me and King cry for the last two posting on the

00:45:35.200 --> 00:45:42.200
Forum thanks guys this one is King cry um yeah like I is that even proper

00:45:40.720 --> 00:45:45.839
terminology now because that wasn't even a real launch was it I'm I'm pretty sure

00:45:43.760 --> 00:45:48.760
H1 Z1 is still in Early Access I think so yeah but then people were like oh my

00:45:47.160 --> 00:45:53.520
God the servers aren't good enough because Early Access literally doesn't

00:45:50.359 --> 00:45:55.079
mean Early Access anymore um you just

00:45:53.520 --> 00:46:00.040
buy the game you just bought the game you're playing the game anyways dumb but

00:45:58.359 --> 00:46:05.760
yeah apparently the company that bought it which has a terrible name of Daybreak

00:46:02.480 --> 00:46:07.880
game company well no that they renamed

00:46:05.760 --> 00:46:12.240
it to Daybreak game company yeah which is bought by was bought by like a

00:46:10.200 --> 00:46:16.440
holding company columus Nova yeah New York's B firm investment management firm

00:46:14.680 --> 00:46:20.559
but Daybreak game company

00:46:18.119 --> 00:46:28.839
really um they make games until they they work

00:46:25.160 --> 00:46:30.000
until so late at night the comes up that

00:46:28.839 --> 00:46:34.800
might actually be true if you're a programmer yeah so maybe not that far

00:46:32.440 --> 00:46:39.640
from the TR actually maybe it's the best name for a game company

00:46:37.760 --> 00:46:43.680
ever I just didn't like that they're called game company I don't know why I'm

00:46:42.359 --> 00:46:48.200
sure there's other ones out there called aren't we called I so I shouldn't have

00:46:46.119 --> 00:46:52.200
called us lonus Media company I have never said that that was a good name

00:46:50.280 --> 00:46:57.440
right I have forever said that that was a terrible name right moving on um what

00:46:55.680 --> 00:47:04.720
did you want like dish water R anything other than lus Media Group

00:47:02.040 --> 00:47:07.839
anyways um they're they're looking into they they said that they want to fully

00:47:05.920 --> 00:47:11.599
embrace the multiplatform world in which we all live so that's bringing up

00:47:10.400 --> 00:47:16.319
theories that they're going to bring H1 Z1 to consoles which is probably not too

00:47:13.480 --> 00:47:21.880
surprising and mobile you just said H1N1 to consoles did I yeah hopefully we're

00:47:18.760 --> 00:47:26.040
bringing viruses to

00:47:21.880 --> 00:47:28.200
consoles H1 Z1 is what I meant to say uh

00:47:26.040 --> 00:47:33.160
and apparently interested in possible mobile crap in the future so nothing was

00:47:31.200 --> 00:47:40.040
interesting for us not all mobile stuff is crap um Square Enix keeps remaking

00:47:36.680 --> 00:47:43.520
Final Fantasy ver mobile those are good

00:47:40.040 --> 00:47:47.000
games oh Pokemon Pokemon Blue is a

00:47:43.520 --> 00:47:47.000
mobile game bam

00:47:47.920 --> 00:47:55.480
no technically yes not the mobile I'm currently talking

00:47:52.960 --> 00:48:01.559
about you just you just got trashed son but technically yes

00:47:57.520 --> 00:48:03.839
that is not wrong okay uh oh this is a

00:48:01.559 --> 00:48:09.200
shame this was posted by Good Bites brutal this is like like I I'll post it

00:48:06.480 --> 00:48:13.520
in the chat this is like a supreme ouch moment um do you know how oh you're

00:48:11.800 --> 00:48:21.160
posting the broken ones let me let me do the posting

00:48:15.839 --> 00:48:27.240
fine um this is great so oh it broke

00:48:21.160 --> 00:48:27.240
again all right please stop breaking

00:48:31.319 --> 00:48:37.720
andity boity no okay I don't

00:48:38.839 --> 00:48:44.040
know oh can they hear us yeah that's not

00:48:42.200 --> 00:48:47.720
what I meant to do now we're really big hi everyone yeah this is a fairly large

00:48:46.319 --> 00:48:51.920
area that I'm in I've always been really big larger larger than the area that we

00:48:50.440 --> 00:48:56.119
normally are when we're showing the now we're gone

00:48:53.799 --> 00:49:00.599
oh you know what's kind of fun know what's kind of fun just start talking go

00:48:58.440 --> 00:49:06.480
just go I I think this is a terrible idea okay I got Apple will spend two

00:49:03.559 --> 00:49:11.880
billion to turn its failed Sapphire plant into a global Command Center so

00:49:09.760 --> 00:49:16.720
you know how the rumor was that the iPhone 6 and 6 Plus would feature

00:49:14.720 --> 00:49:22.400
sapphire glass screens and there was that viral video that Marcus brownley

00:49:19.680 --> 00:49:27.520
made where he tried to scratch it and he bent it and was like w sapphire glass is

00:49:24.880 --> 00:49:31.440
kind of amazing okay you can put us in the corner now um sapphire glass is

00:49:30.079 --> 00:49:37.079
amazing well the company that Apple was actually

00:49:35.000 --> 00:49:41.680
had actually thrown a lot of money at and who had committed to deliver the

00:49:39.559 --> 00:49:47.240
volume of sapphire glass that Apple required in order to integrate this

00:49:44.640 --> 00:49:51.520
product onto not just the iPhone 6 or iPhone 6 Plus but lots of their lots of

00:49:49.440 --> 00:49:56.880
their products including the Apple watch well they GT Advanced Technologies like

00:49:54.240 --> 00:50:04.000
straight up realized that they couldn't it and for bankruptcy so the uh 1.3

00:50:01.559 --> 00:50:10.200
millionare foot building that Apple built to manufacture sapphire glass will

00:50:07.440 --> 00:50:13.960
be um not for that they're going to make it a data center yeah which makes sense

00:50:12.440 --> 00:50:17.520
repurpose the building if you can't do it but it's pretty brutal for a few

00:50:16.319 --> 00:50:23.040
reasons they could fil it with trampolines that would be awesome

00:50:19.920 --> 00:50:24.920
trampolines would do and uh the the ball

00:50:23.040 --> 00:50:29.000
pits not my company would fill it with trampolines not air conditioning

00:50:26.799 --> 00:50:33.760
trampolines mind you but definitely try uh I have bad news by the way the HVAC

00:50:31.079 --> 00:50:38.559
is definitely on hold for the new office we are putting in the hold on just just

00:50:35.720 --> 00:50:42.400
calm down we are and and and okay funny story funny story you might laugh um we

00:50:40.720 --> 00:50:45.799
are not only not going to have air conditioning we're not going to have eat

00:50:44.000 --> 00:50:50.520
I didn't yeah because it's going to be a combo unit I thought it would be when we

00:50:47.720 --> 00:50:55.839
put it in um so the good news is we're putting in the

00:50:51.680 --> 00:50:58.160
ducting so we can install hbac later but

00:50:55.839 --> 00:51:01.640
we cannot afford it right now this the sound the sound dampening that we need

00:50:59.880 --> 00:51:05.599
to do in the warehouse is have you figured more about that I I have figured

00:51:03.640 --> 00:51:09.799
out more about that more research is being done it's going to be very

00:51:07.599 --> 00:51:16.119
expensive is it looking positive into the buy some pizza and do it ourselves

00:51:12.559 --> 00:51:18.000
um I'm not sure okay yeah not sure okay

00:51:16.119 --> 00:51:22.000
so sorry what were we talking about right trampolines right they're repurposing it for data center you know

00:51:20.640 --> 00:51:25.799
cloud storage and all that kind of stuff is all is all yes un the the part that I

00:51:24.599 --> 00:51:30.359
was getting to sorry I was trying to remember what I was trying talk about um

00:51:27.960 --> 00:51:36.280
the the really sucky part in my opinion is that it will now create 150 full-time

00:51:33.480 --> 00:51:40.200
jobs and 300 to 500 construction jobs temporarily that sounds pretty cool

00:51:38.480 --> 00:51:47.359
except that it was supposed to create 2,000 jobs permanently bummer now it's

00:51:44.559 --> 00:51:52.920
150 that's a nasty drop it's one of the largest Investments Apple has ever made

00:51:50.400 --> 00:51:58.559
and although of those 150 it's probably like data center people so people in the

00:51:54.520 --> 00:52:02.119
audience might be more able to be hired

00:51:58.559 --> 00:52:03.640
than the sapphire plant so that might be

00:52:02.119 --> 00:52:09.000
good for like our group of people but it's not good for the overall Employment

00:52:05.680 --> 00:52:12.040
Number all right so this is actually

00:52:09.000 --> 00:52:15.200
look at this good news from

00:52:12.040 --> 00:52:17.319
Ubisoft I think this is good yeah but

00:52:15.200 --> 00:52:21.240
it's like good because they're reeling back from terrible oh it wasn't okay

00:52:20.079 --> 00:52:24.599
it's like they shot someone and then they're like hold on let me let me fix

00:52:23.440 --> 00:52:30.040
that they patch the hole stood by while

00:52:28.319 --> 00:52:34.119
someone else got shot little bit of disinfectant they stood by how did they

00:52:31.720 --> 00:52:37.480
stand by they shot this gun no they didn't yes they did well they didn't

00:52:36.119 --> 00:52:41.359
they didn't okay let's hold on let's try's someone punched them in the face

00:52:39.440 --> 00:52:44.720
they shot some other dude and they're like crap okay that's actually the bad

00:52:42.960 --> 00:52:50.799
guy let me patch this someone else robbed their Bank okay okay so they so

00:52:48.160 --> 00:52:53.920
someone else no no someone else robbed their bank so they went and stole stuff

00:52:52.520 --> 00:52:58.920
from everyone that's ever used their Bank no someone okay Robin Hood

00:52:57.040 --> 00:53:03.680
let's say let's say Robin Hood okay like dirty Robin Hood who's in it for the

00:53:01.200 --> 00:53:10.200
profit to himself so definitely not Robin Hood not Robin Hood so a thief yes

00:53:07.160 --> 00:53:14.520
okay so we're gonna call him dirty Robin

00:53:10.200 --> 00:53:18.960
okay so dirty Robin busts into the bank

00:53:14.520 --> 00:53:20.920
takes um money okay but but not like uh

00:53:18.960 --> 00:53:24.960
not just like us cash let's say this happens in America okay but they don't

00:53:22.760 --> 00:53:29.799
take us cash they take all the foreign currency okay that for some reason

00:53:27.559 --> 00:53:34.960
people want no let's say it happens in Canada okay just

00:53:31.680 --> 00:53:37.200
just you just no I'm going let's go okay

00:53:34.960 --> 00:53:41.240
okay so they break into a Canadian Bank no one wants Canadian currency because

00:53:39.000 --> 00:53:47.559
it's plummeting right now so they take all the US currency okay and then

00:53:45.079 --> 00:53:54.000
instead of Distributing it to the poor they sell it to the poor for Canadian

00:53:51.240 --> 00:53:59.559
currency that they then convert to something useful like Bitcoin and then

00:53:56.880 --> 00:54:03.240
they have money I'm I'm well relatively useful it got a little weird at the end

00:54:01.440 --> 00:54:09.040
okay okay okay so so that's what happened followed you yeah the Ubisoft

00:54:06.520 --> 00:54:16.000
the the bank the bank thank you the Ubisoft Bank basically

00:54:12.400 --> 00:54:18.920
invalidated the foreign currency serial

00:54:16.000 --> 00:54:22.799
numbers that were stolen because it was stolen goods so they stole a stolen

00:54:20.599 --> 00:54:27.559
property it is illegal to buy stolen goods but they bought it from a

00:54:25.160 --> 00:54:33.000
legitimate store so we missed we screwed up part of that story okay so but will

00:54:29.240 --> 00:54:33.000
they stool the money from a legitimate

00:54:34.520 --> 00:54:39.720
bank doesn't I wasn't commenting on that

00:54:38.040 --> 00:54:44.359
at all I was to saying we missed the part where like they they sold it to a

00:54:42.720 --> 00:54:50.040
store that you would normally buy legitimate things from so the people

00:54:46.559 --> 00:54:51.520
that bought it no no no uh the people

00:54:50.040 --> 00:54:56.599
that stole from the bank a bank with a store in it oh I see what you're saying

00:54:54.319 --> 00:54:59.880
cuz they're not buying the money yeah no you said they sold the money yeah they

00:54:57.880 --> 00:55:04.599
sold well they exchanged the exchanged the money so they were a bank so a bank

00:55:02.960 --> 00:55:08.480
stole money from a bank and then sold it to other Banks and then people bought it

00:55:06.480 --> 00:55:12.079
from the yeah and then they cancelled the bank

00:55:10.000 --> 00:55:17.480
money okay you know what why don't I just so basically Ubisoft is

00:55:14.799 --> 00:55:22.880
reactivating Far Cry 4 keys that were invalidated due to

00:55:20.960 --> 00:55:27.760
um okay you know what why don't you just do this because apparently I can't

00:55:24.079 --> 00:55:29.520
handle it okay so I'm so lost now I

00:55:27.760 --> 00:55:33.640
actually had like the I had everything for the story ready and now I'm just

00:55:31.039 --> 00:55:38.799
screwed um essentially there's a whole bunch of keys uh stolen through

00:55:36.200 --> 00:55:42.960
apparently G2 a whole bunch of keys were sold through g2a which were stolen or

00:55:40.880 --> 00:55:47.319
something from other online retailers or whatever so Ubisoft just went and like

00:55:45.680 --> 00:55:50.720
canceled everyone who had bought it from other retailers um although I don't

00:55:49.280 --> 00:55:54.839
think that's actually a proper general statement it's said in the article that

00:55:52.839 --> 00:56:01.880
way but I'm pretty sure steam ones weren't cancelled and that's technically

00:55:57.880 --> 00:56:04.000
not you play right okay so I don't

00:56:01.880 --> 00:56:08.000
really can you even buy far I remember didn't we buy Far Cry 4 through

00:56:06.319 --> 00:56:11.960
Steam we did yeah we did but then I don't even remember there's something weird going on with you play in Far Cry

00:56:10.280 --> 00:56:17.240
4 I don't remember how all that stuff went down but anyways a lot of keys got

00:56:14.760 --> 00:56:20.599
invalidated because uh they were stolen or they assumed to be stolen or whatever

00:56:19.200 --> 00:56:27.920
even if they were purchased from sites that would traditionally have been seen as the legitimate way to buy things um

00:56:24.880 --> 00:56:29.880
and g2a has I think some form of

00:56:27.920 --> 00:56:33.559
protection or something so people that got that are no matter what being taken

00:56:31.680 --> 00:56:37.920
care of people that didn't are like probably being taken care of and right I

00:56:36.000 --> 00:56:42.960
don't know their angle is super weird but yeah then Ubisoft went like okay I

00:56:41.280 --> 00:56:47.280
think we need to like invalidate the ones that we think are currently stolen

00:56:45.240 --> 00:56:53.200
but not necessarily activated and let people play that actually paid for it at

00:56:49.359 --> 00:56:54.559
some point okay yeah okay so they're

00:56:53.200 --> 00:56:58.319
like kind of trying to they're kind of trying to fix it here so Ubisoft got

00:56:56.319 --> 00:57:02.640
screwed over actually yeah pretty hard and then they retaliated heavier than

00:57:00.839 --> 00:57:07.680
they probably should have in terms of Saving Face right so dirty Robin took

00:57:05.200 --> 00:57:11.920
their stuff and then they basically strung up everyone he sold it to from a

00:57:10.400 --> 00:57:15.359
they did like the superhero recovery mode which where like they destroy half

00:57:13.599 --> 00:57:21.319
the city while trying to get the villain right yes okay speaking of which we had

00:57:19.160 --> 00:57:25.760
this conversation the other night I am like so excited for Incredibles 2 I know

00:57:23.880 --> 00:57:29.599
it's like not even close and there aren't even like teaser trailers yet but

00:57:28.039 --> 00:57:33.799
any there's nothing we can show you this is not an article yeah this is not this

00:57:31.559 --> 00:57:36.559
is not a thing be a really good talking about the other night um speaking of

00:57:35.280 --> 00:57:40.440
things we were talking about the other night we actually have some sponsors for

00:57:38.319 --> 00:57:45.000
the show today look at that linda.com you can learn it we've

00:57:42.839 --> 00:57:53.000

00:58:22.039 --> 00:58:28.960
mean unlimited within constraints giving

00:58:26.319 --> 00:58:32.760
a better term of unlimited than isps and sell providers do yeah I think we're

00:58:31.200 --> 00:58:37.880
being pretty fair about it at least it's it's Unlimited in the amount of time

00:58:34.480 --> 00:58:39.680
that exists yeah so uh so unlimited

00:58:41.119 --> 00:58:48.240
coding digital photography uh business which uh we've had quite a few people

00:58:45.760 --> 00:58:53.359
suggesting that perhaps we uh take some courses on in the twitch chat here while

00:58:50.359 --> 00:58:54.680
we were discussing dirty Robin and what

00:58:53.359 --> 00:58:59.440
whatever else is we were talking about so guys uh thanks to

00:58:56.680 --> 00:59:04.559
for sponsoring the W show we've also got Squarespace as a sponsor this week

00:59:02.319 --> 00:59:09.079
Squarespace I why do you have to bring up that song every time because I didn't

00:59:07.119 --> 00:59:13.319
know a single lyric When We sang it I know you you didn't you didn't do your

00:59:11.119 --> 00:59:18.640
pre-show prep and now you're rubbing that in my face like I did something

00:59:15.160 --> 00:59:20.400
wrong so um guys if you if you missed it

00:59:18.640 --> 00:59:23.760
you can check out squarespace's Super Bowl commercial that we actually

00:59:22.079 --> 00:59:28.359
previewed last week with the Jeff Bridges whole Jeff Bridges

00:59:26.640 --> 00:59:32.640
that project that he's working on with the sound recording but that is really

00:59:31.039 --> 00:59:37.359
not the point of Squarespace they've got a new slogan build it beautiful I think

00:59:35.280 --> 00:59:41.039
that actually is not a bad slogan it's certainly better than the slogans we

00:59:38.640 --> 00:59:46.240
were working on earlier we we came up with some pretty bad ones did I show you

00:59:42.480 --> 00:59:49.359
the one that I liked though um oh oh it

00:59:46.240 --> 00:59:51.119
was uh we Tech things seriously yeah no

00:59:49.359 --> 00:59:56.559
yeah yeah yeah yeah I like that one yeah that I thought that one was pretty funny we have some other like really terrible

00:59:53.680 --> 01:00:01.319
puny stuff uh anyway so build it that is kind of the point Squarespace

00:59:59.640 --> 01:00:05.799

cuz I got like the best user testimonial for Squarespace ever and they were like

01:01:06.119 --> 01:01:11.640
oh my gosh I use Squarespace and it's like super awesome but they were a lot

01:01:10.160 --> 01:01:17.400
more eloquent than that uh make beautiful website it's

01:01:15.359 --> 01:01:21.160
super easy with our templates okay well it is the s i I'll have to find that

01:01:19.520 --> 01:01:25.960
again so the sites look great on mobile they look great on desktop and they're

01:01:23.359 --> 01:01:29.880
very responsive and easy to make easy to use they got 247 tech support and I

01:01:27.920 --> 01:01:33.880
think that pretty much covers it you want your site to look great and be very

01:01:32.039 --> 01:01:38.880
usable and be easy to make then squarespace.com is pretty much the way

01:01:36.160 --> 01:01:42.480
to go and then our last one is just kind of a just kind of a fun one we actually

01:01:40.640 --> 01:01:48.720
have a variety of different things from Master up um that we can show you guys

01:01:44.799 --> 01:01:51.799
today we've had a lot of people drooling

01:01:48.720 --> 01:01:53.920
over this keycap set when uh what video

01:01:51.799 --> 01:01:59.359
did I show it in I don't know I think it was in the iMac gaming video

01:01:56.559 --> 01:02:03.559
iMac gaming no one's looking at the iMac no one's impressed by running Crisis 3

01:02:01.279 --> 01:02:07.319
on it everyone's looking at this keycap set that's what I was looking at so this

01:02:05.200 --> 01:02:11.760
was like a crazy I think this drop is actually over so I'm sorry guys I'm just

01:02:10.000 --> 01:02:17.039
like showing you cool stuff Mass drop has that you can't buy but it's a full

01:02:14.240 --> 01:02:25.240
PBT key cap set with like custom Star Trek themed Spacey lettering like

01:02:19.960 --> 01:02:28.200
airlock key and like phase key resan for

01:02:25.240 --> 01:02:32.200
clan key oh so it's mostly designed for people who already know what the keys

01:02:30.680 --> 01:02:36.520
are supposed to be we should we should get super affordable though we should

01:02:33.920 --> 01:02:39.920
get Nick Van Burl a keyboard that has a phas clan key on it then every single

01:02:38.599 --> 01:02:44.160
time that he presses it it just plays the audio clip we should probably do

01:02:42.440 --> 01:02:48.319
that actually that would be a good super fun just like how to do it how to yeah

01:02:46.119 --> 01:02:53.400
like if we just make like a Phase Clan button yep that's actually toally

01:02:51.000 --> 01:02:58.119
doe we should totally make that that drop is on until tomorrow oh that's what

01:02:55.640 --> 01:03:01.839
our link goes to is the keycap set all right thank you

01:02:59.440 --> 01:03:06.079
nips once again I have no idea what's going on I do have two he might as well

01:03:04.440 --> 01:03:08.760
stay he does have notes on I just want to make it clear he does have notes on

01:03:07.599 --> 01:03:13.760
his screen he just doesn't look at they're actually not technically on his screen right now he's like he he he not

01:03:12.079 --> 01:03:17.279
only moved the screen away but he put a different window in front of it there's

01:03:15.200 --> 01:03:21.200
your issue so there's like two layers of Defense from the knowledge okay well

01:03:18.839 --> 01:03:24.960
they have other cool things that are over but the point is they have lots of

01:03:23.240 --> 01:03:30.839
stuff that isn't just keyboards so this is the uh graffiti graffiti

01:03:28.079 --> 01:03:35.480
Lin something yeah anyway so it's a little tiny USB charging cable they've

01:03:33.799 --> 01:03:39.760
got a lightning one they've got a micro USB one we've actually featured a very

01:03:37.480 --> 01:03:44.680
similar product before on handy Tech under 100 um so they've got like cool

01:03:42.480 --> 01:03:49.520
little stuff like that and this I wasn't really sure about even bringing up on

01:03:46.520 --> 01:03:52.079
the show we don't generally talk about

01:03:49.520 --> 01:03:58.760
weapons a weapon

01:03:53.760 --> 01:03:58.760
okay a gun is not a weapon you call it a

01:03:58.920 --> 01:04:05.640
firearm okay I'm serious if you go get your gun Licensing in BC you call it a

01:04:04.039 --> 01:04:12.480
firearm or they will not give you your license so the fact that I called this a

01:04:08.680 --> 01:04:15.720
weapon means I should have as a Yes

01:04:12.480 --> 01:04:17.240
mine you can use it technically as a

01:04:15.720 --> 01:04:22.200
weapon but you don't describe it as a weapon and you don't use it as a weapon

01:04:20.000 --> 01:04:27.599
it just can be you can use a kitchen pot as a weapon it is actually done in very

01:04:24.200 --> 01:04:28.880
many times in movies you can use basic

01:04:27.599 --> 01:04:34.559
you're you're I could use your BS logic is

01:04:32.400 --> 01:04:37.720
going to be it happens in movies therefore you could hit you can't start

01:04:36.799 --> 01:04:41.480
a sentence with that you could hit someone with a frying pan and that would hurt a lot I can't take you seriously do

01:04:40.279 --> 01:04:48.160
you want to fight me with a frying pan No I don't want to fight you with a frying pan that is not the point that

01:04:45.559 --> 01:04:55.440
we're talking about at all the point is draw. slw show for awesome drops like

01:04:52.200 --> 01:04:57.440
this one bring it back around to the to

01:04:55.440 --> 01:05:02.200
hand why do I even let you co-host this show

01:04:59.319 --> 01:05:05.400
with me a a a frying pan could be very easily used as a weapon that would hurt

01:05:03.760 --> 01:05:09.400
I didn't say it couldn't be used as a weapon I just said the fact that it

01:05:06.799 --> 01:05:14.640
appears in movies is a complete I said it could be and then I

01:05:11.400 --> 01:05:18.119
said in fact it is as an additional

01:05:14.640 --> 01:05:19.279
Point not as a main point that was a

01:05:18.119 --> 01:05:26.359
supporting article supporting supports

01:05:22.480 --> 01:05:28.400
nothing speaking of for my thesis on on

01:05:26.359 --> 01:05:35.279
on weapon variability speaking of supporting nothing uh consoles may get

01:05:31.640 --> 01:05:37.880
4k support uh sometime in Q4 this is

01:05:35.279 --> 01:05:43.000
good this is actually really helpful and can you actually do your job and post

01:05:39.520 --> 01:05:44.839
this the twitch chat the the reason why

01:05:43.000 --> 01:05:50.799
this is really helpful is this might bring more uh 4K content like Netflix

01:05:48.760 --> 01:05:55.720
and stuff might push for more 4K content because of compatibility on other things

01:05:52.920 --> 01:06:00.559
so non console people might actually get more 4K content that they can watch um

01:05:58.440 --> 01:06:08.200
through that thanks to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One um finally joining 4 years ago

01:06:05.039 --> 01:06:10.279
well okay well okay you could play 4K

01:06:08.200 --> 01:06:14.720
video easily for quite a while on a PC in terms of a hardware but then the PS4

01:06:12.680 --> 01:06:19.960
and the Xbox one already have the horsepower to play back 4K video it's

01:06:16.640 --> 01:06:21.640
not freaking complicated um the problem

01:06:19.960 --> 01:06:25.960
is that they don't have a display interface that's capable of playing back

01:06:23.520 --> 01:06:29.760
4K video and we haven't had that on the PC for that long it has been a couple

01:06:27.640 --> 01:06:34.160
years a good point but DisplayPort 1.2 is when we got that on the PC like

01:06:31.520 --> 01:06:38.960
affordably without you know multi multi- linking multiple interfaces right two

01:06:36.920 --> 01:06:44.880
monitors and bizel chopping or whatever yeah so what it seems like they were

01:06:40.720 --> 01:06:48.119
waiting for was HDMI 2.0 and I suspect

01:06:44.880 --> 01:06:51.520
since it's already I mean it it

01:06:48.119 --> 01:06:54.119
hopefully the article covers this um I

01:06:51.520 --> 01:06:57.799
don't remember anymore but I I don't think we're going to be looking at 4K

01:06:56.119 --> 01:07:04.319
gaming anytime soon because that would be a serious as I told Hardware revision

01:07:01.559 --> 01:07:08.240
it could it it just have to do puzzle bble yeah the arcade games or whatever

01:07:06.480 --> 01:07:13.640
like it would you're not going to do yeah you might do arcade gaming stuff

01:07:10.520 --> 01:07:18.720
that's about it so like 4K Stickman

01:07:13.640 --> 01:07:20.240
Adventures 201 Edition uh maybe Tetris

01:07:18.720 --> 01:07:24.400
unless they put too many cool graphics in they've done that sometimes but then

01:07:23.000 --> 01:07:30.599
now that I think about it no they already have HDMI1 .4 they could

01:07:26.400 --> 01:07:34.079
technically do HDMI video playback

01:07:30.599 --> 01:07:36.000
already at 30 FPS this actually got said

01:07:34.079 --> 01:07:40.839
as to no longer be an official statement anyways so so moving on cuz Netflix is

01:07:39.839 --> 01:07:46.520
the one that said it and then they're like oh wait we can't talk on behalf of

01:07:42.920 --> 01:07:46.520
those guys so

01:07:46.880 --> 01:07:52.880
yeah that's about it three months later

01:07:50.240 --> 01:07:58.039
Android 5.0 Lollipop uh the last one was posted by crater and this one's posted

01:07:55.079 --> 01:08:04.720
by good bites has only 1.6% market

01:08:00.680 --> 01:08:07.200
share wow we that is uh not a hell heck

01:08:04.720 --> 01:08:13.119
of a lot um especially given that Android operating systems come in at the

01:08:09.880 --> 01:08:16.440
whopping price of absolutely nothing

01:08:13.119 --> 01:08:19.080
yeah uh to run on anything so this means

01:08:16.440 --> 01:08:22.839
this means a couple of things um it or it could mean a couple of things number

01:08:20.679 --> 01:08:29.560
one it could mean that KitKat was just fine um and handset ERS Andor users

01:08:26.960 --> 01:08:33.120
simply don't feel the need to update uh number two is it could mean that the

01:08:31.600 --> 01:08:39.239
devices that come pre-loaded with lollipop like the Nexus 6 uh NVIDIA

01:08:35.359 --> 01:08:41.199
Shield tablet Nexus 9 um just aren't

01:08:39.239 --> 01:08:46.920
selling that well but I really don't think that's it because the Android

01:08:43.799 --> 01:08:49.159
install base is so massive I mean to put

01:08:46.920 --> 01:08:53.120
it in the appropriate context Jelly Bean is still in the lead yeah and there have

01:08:51.520 --> 01:08:58.319
been some pretty successful Kit Kat based devices um so I don't think that's

01:08:55.759 --> 01:09:02.159
it and then number three and this is the one that I personally think is most

01:08:59.880 --> 01:09:06.120
likely the handset makers that are validating lollipop are finding it just

01:09:04.319 --> 01:09:11.839
kind of a bear to deal with and roll out to their devices um droid turbo was sold

01:09:09.920 --> 01:09:18.040
with the promise of quick update to lollipop I mean we're 3 months in that's

01:09:13.440 --> 01:09:19.960
not exactly quick these days um so so

01:09:18.040 --> 01:09:24.799
there you go I mean I personally wasn't that impressed with lollipop but Google

01:09:21.799 --> 01:09:26.279
has acknowledged the memory leak issue

01:09:24.799 --> 01:09:30.799
um that they're hopefully going to be fixing and I think it was going to be a

01:09:28.799 --> 01:09:35.560
5.1 update of the people that I know that have uh volli poop it it I I

01:09:33.880 --> 01:09:39.960
haven't actually heard usually when there's a new phone OS you're like oh

01:09:38.400 --> 01:09:44.359
there's all these cool new things about it like look at this new thing I can do

01:09:41.600 --> 01:09:47.560
blah blah blah blah blah no nothing really I hear some frustrations about

01:09:46.040 --> 01:09:52.120
like how notifications work and how you have to scroll through them and stuff and that's about it just some

01:09:49.960 --> 01:09:57.199
frustrations have some extra clicks um all for the sake of material design yeah

01:09:55.480 --> 01:10:00.600
that's that's about all I've heard is I have to do more things to be able to get

01:09:58.640 --> 01:10:03.440
stuff done the thing that really annoyed me most and maybe this is petty cuz

01:10:02.239 --> 01:10:08.199
Brandon doesn't seem to care he's running a Nexus 5 with lollipop um is

01:10:06.239 --> 01:10:13.120
removing the dividing lines between all the characters on the keyboard yeah why

01:10:10.120 --> 01:10:15.120
do you need to do that yeah don't why

01:10:13.120 --> 01:10:20.120
don't you have uh better things to do swift key um oh yeah yeah but whenever I

01:10:18.400 --> 01:10:25.679
whenever I fire up a new phone fresh install I try to use it until it makes

01:10:23.199 --> 01:10:31.159
me mad and then that's my benchmark for whether it was good enough so so if I

01:10:28.719 --> 01:10:33.920
have if I end up switching to swift key it's like how long did it take me to

01:10:32.560 --> 01:10:38.880
switch to swift key that's how good their stock keyboard is well their stock

01:10:36.440 --> 01:10:42.120
keyboard is about a two and a half week yeah it's a two it's a two and a half

01:10:40.199 --> 01:10:46.760
week until it frustrates you start start giving it like its own values Ivon uh

01:10:44.199 --> 01:10:51.679
recently switched to the 1 M8 and it was a one day keyboard for her the uh the

01:10:49.679 --> 01:10:55.679
the the sense sense keyboard wow she was like this is

01:10:53.679 --> 01:10:59.760
terrible cuz she'd been using the phone before and uh I was like no no it's okay

01:10:58.080 --> 01:11:02.480
I can change it she's like no it's okay I'm like no no I'll change it for you

01:11:01.080 --> 01:11:09.040
and so I put in swift key I put in the number row I removed swipe and then I

01:11:05.600 --> 01:11:10.640
changed the delay for um for special

01:11:09.040 --> 01:11:14.080
characters I do every single one of those are my essential essential

01:11:12.520 --> 01:11:20.880
settings for swift key and she was like oh this is great this is much better um

01:11:17.440 --> 01:11:23.560
dual GPU cards and configurations this

01:11:20.880 --> 01:11:29.199
is posted by assassin and we are of course going to use the WCC F Tech link

01:11:26.199 --> 01:11:32.480
because we love trolling you guys um M

01:11:29.199 --> 01:11:35.239
oh really

01:11:32.480 --> 01:11:38.840
wrecked wrecked wreck wrecked this is annoying it's probably a loose

01:11:37.040 --> 01:11:43.480
connection somewhere I blame you you set it up all right I'll try not to add the

01:11:40.960 --> 01:11:48.159
wrong camera this time I blame your feet I blame your on table I blame your face

01:11:45.760 --> 01:11:52.560
you're probably bumping things what is going on here well whatever um we should

01:11:50.760 --> 01:12:00.480
just like glue in all the connections so new lowlevel apis like uh anle and

01:11:56.280 --> 01:12:03.560
DirectX 12 may allow game developers to

01:12:00.480 --> 01:12:06.480
combine the video memory of multiple

01:12:03.560 --> 01:12:13.280
graphics cards so the Autobon Hammer that 24 gig uh system that we built with

01:12:10.520 --> 01:12:20.400
three 29x 8 gig cards could potentially have 24 gigs of video memory now to be

01:12:16.440 --> 01:12:23.520
clear this is at least in the short term

01:12:20.400 --> 01:12:25.560
completely purposeless because no game

01:12:23.520 --> 01:12:31.239
developer is going to build a game that is going to take advantage of 24 games

01:12:28.360 --> 01:12:35.080
not even just that I'm gonna quote a a little bit long quote here but still

01:12:33.199 --> 01:12:39.440
quote just because they're running uh Windows 10 and dx12 and or mantle API

01:12:37.760 --> 01:12:43.679
does not mean that your multi-GPU configuration is now stacking memory the

01:12:41.760 --> 01:12:48.560
capability is present in these low-level overhead apis but they will not come

01:12:46.199 --> 01:12:54.239
into effect until Dev specifically optimize the games as

01:12:50.920 --> 01:12:56.120
such right so not only is there no games

01:12:54.239 --> 01:13:00.719
that can really use that much VM right now but the devs are going to have to do

01:12:58.360 --> 01:13:05.520
it themselves and looking at how long it takes them to even have multi-GPU

01:13:02.920 --> 01:13:10.960
profiles at launch half the freaking time I don't see that many devs really

01:13:08.400 --> 01:13:16.000
doing this at least not now so yeah so don't get your hopes up

01:13:14.800 --> 01:13:21.920
there will probably be some sponsored titles I mean this is not just a PC

01:13:18.880 --> 01:13:24.840
feature this is like a super esoteric PC

01:13:21.920 --> 01:13:30.440
feature that a very small subset of that PC audience is going to be able to

01:13:26.520 --> 01:13:32.400
leverage so uh so that's cool and that's

01:13:30.440 --> 01:13:37.040
I'm very happy that it exists um one thing that's very cool about this is

01:13:34.840 --> 01:13:40.840
that uh well it's mantle so it'll probably come to like everything else as

01:13:38.719 --> 01:13:45.159
well and if it starts being available in kind of everything and then hopefully

01:13:42.719 --> 01:13:50.719
starts being available as just a plug-in that developers can do instead of uh

01:13:48.040 --> 01:13:56.320
having to manually code things for that then that would be nice so not now but

01:13:53.760 --> 01:14:00.199
future speaking of speaking of mantle and direct X12 this is actually an

01:13:57.920 --> 01:14:05.960
article I was reading oh for crying out loud right I don't have screen share

01:14:02.880 --> 01:14:07.440
uh sorry is this a linkable thing uh can

01:14:05.960 --> 01:14:11.920
I link this just on an unch oh you're going to do it there okay

01:14:09.800 --> 01:14:18.600
yeah I'll just do it here um I just want to share the article that's all yeah so

01:14:14.000 --> 01:14:22.280
I'll just add screen region bity Boop uh

01:14:18.600 --> 01:14:25.159
here's my browser enjoy

01:14:22.280 --> 01:14:31.120
okay there we go uh the direct X12 performance preview AMD NVIDIA and star

01:14:27.960 --> 01:14:33.600
swarm so Ryan Smith over at Anon uh put

01:14:31.120 --> 01:14:38.920
together some explanations of blippity bloop you can read all that if you want

01:14:35.040 --> 01:14:41.719
here's the star swarm demo and the test

01:14:38.920 --> 01:14:48.199
and here are the results so on cards that support direct deck 11 12 and

01:14:45.440 --> 01:14:51.960
mantle we get to see all three results and for cards that don't support mantle

01:14:49.800 --> 01:14:58.000
and video cards uh we get to see DirectX 11 and 12 so uh G GTX 9 980 gets more

01:14:55.960 --> 01:15:03.239
than a doubling in performance moving from directex 11 to direct X2 and we've

01:15:00.800 --> 01:15:07.120
also got on the AMD cards direct x 12 and mantle performing within spitting

01:15:05.040 --> 01:15:11.040
distance of each other pretty well across the board mantle winning in every

01:15:09.280 --> 01:15:17.440
case but definitely within spitting distance yeah yes mantle does does Edge out

01:15:14.800 --> 01:15:21.679
direct X12 in every case but I think that if people were hoping that mantle

01:15:19.280 --> 01:15:28.080
was going to be the reason to own an AMD card um they're I think well basically

01:15:25.600 --> 01:15:31.040
if they work at AMD um then I think they're going to be a little bit

01:15:29.040 --> 01:15:38.480
disappointed because the thing is that star swarm is kind of a a worst case

01:15:34.960 --> 01:15:40.600
scenario it is designed to Showcase

01:15:38.480 --> 01:15:46.920
scenarios where there are far too many draw calls for directx11 to be able to

01:15:43.080 --> 01:15:49.280
handle it efficiently and to create CPU

01:15:46.920 --> 01:15:55.040
bottlenecks it's designed to do that whereas real games these differences

01:15:52.080 --> 01:15:58.880
that you see between mantle and direct X1 we've already seen that in real games

01:15:57.600 --> 01:16:01.840
you're not looking at a doubling of performance from from direct X1 to

01:16:00.719 --> 01:16:06.560
mantle you're looking at maybe a couple of percent a few percent um so that

01:16:04.880 --> 01:16:11.560
difference between mant and directx12 will be a fraction of a

01:16:09.199 --> 01:16:15.280
fraction of that other bigger difference that ended up being much smaller yeah so

01:16:13.719 --> 01:16:20.880
and then if we do end up doing that which we probably will eventually end up

01:16:17.040 --> 01:16:22.239
using all that performance um DirectX 12

01:16:20.880 --> 01:16:26.239
will have well we might not even be on DirectX 12 at that point we might be

01:16:24.120 --> 01:16:31.920
further on but that Gap probably will have closed at least a little bit

01:16:28.360 --> 01:16:33.679
anyways yes but yeah it's it's a little

01:16:31.920 --> 01:16:37.320
bit disappointing that it has to be has to lean so much on developers we're

01:16:35.120 --> 01:16:42.760
seeing so many things come out these days where uh to quote Balmer developers

01:16:40.719 --> 01:16:47.040
developers developers ey tracking leans on developers VR leans on developers

01:16:44.880 --> 01:16:52.040
this leans on developers so much stuff is doing that and it's uh yeah as a

01:16:49.920 --> 01:16:56.639
developer right now I would be scared and excited at the same time all right

01:16:54.880 --> 01:17:02.880
speaking of being scared and excited this was posted by Alex Goes High Razer

01:16:59.400 --> 01:17:04.679
has upgraded the blade with Maxwell and

01:17:02.880 --> 01:17:10.199
more importantly for me since I'm a bit of a tab fiend more RAM so the blade is

01:17:08.360 --> 01:17:16.520
now available with a gtx970m instead of an 870m and 16 gigs

01:17:14.199 --> 01:17:23.760
of RAM is now an option on the higher end skew you still have that same high

01:17:20.360 --> 01:17:26.040
resolution exop panel display Luke is

01:17:23.760 --> 01:17:32.320
I'm trying to fix it doing things here I got kind of a funny idea uh so which one

01:17:29.360 --> 01:17:35.120
is this this is this one oh what the oh what are you doing I was going to I was

01:17:33.920 --> 01:17:39.560
going to give them like a behind the scenes of what you were doing well I'm

01:17:37.080 --> 01:17:42.960
trying to coniger the a med actually I'm just going to point it at your butt why

01:17:40.960 --> 01:17:49.199
are you doing that why would I not do that I don't know this doesn't seem like

01:17:46.040 --> 01:17:51.280
very high quality show content

01:17:49.199 --> 01:17:56.360
hello look at my nose what you got going on down there well there's computer

01:17:53.400 --> 01:18:01.719
cables and carpet and video cables and video cables oh look a wheel hey a foot

01:17:59.400 --> 01:18:05.719
oh why don't you wear Footwear at work uh because I don't want to right okay

01:18:04.400 --> 01:18:11.320
why don't you have air conditioning installed uh because it's expensive but

01:18:09.159 --> 01:18:15.719
where's expensive that's true Footwear not the kind you would buy no nothing

01:18:13.520 --> 01:18:22.320
you would buy is expensive no um okay they upgraded the CPU from an i7 4702 HQ

01:18:19.080 --> 01:18:23.760
to an i747 20hq that movement of the two

01:18:22.320 --> 01:18:31.639
is actually very important that signifies a TDP jump from 37 to 47 Watts

01:18:28.360 --> 01:18:33.560
uh which the more efficient 970m allowed

01:18:31.639 --> 01:18:40.000
although personally I probably would have opted for more battery and uh not

01:18:37.679 --> 01:18:43.960
bother with that minuscule gain in CPU performance um there's also a new

01:18:41.880 --> 01:18:52.520
lower-end version with a 1080p display and 256 gig SSD for 2 Grand still very

01:18:48.400 --> 01:18:55.080
expensive commenting on the CRT um oh

01:18:52.520 --> 01:18:59.760
the CRT yeah the CRT is for uh retro games

01:18:56.840 --> 01:19:03.199
mhm next so I I guess here I'll post this one I'll let you uh I'll let you

01:19:01.480 --> 01:19:08.040
handle this one or we I guess we could both handle this one so the FCC will

01:19:05.199 --> 01:19:13.520
declare the internet title 2 and apply net neutrality rules to

01:19:10.480 --> 01:19:16.360
mobile yeah that is awesome so great

01:19:13.520 --> 01:19:19.560
news wheeler did a bit of a jump face and started actually supporting the

01:19:17.840 --> 01:19:25.040
people that he's supposed to which is cool um and started backing up saying

01:19:22.840 --> 01:19:29.040
like oh yeah well we we we've listened to uh the communities and the people and

01:19:27.400 --> 01:19:34.480
all this kind of stuff for once apparently um and now yeah title 2 and

01:19:32.719 --> 01:19:37.520
blah blah blah there's some kind of sketchy things in this I'm not going to

01:19:36.080 --> 01:19:42.920
go over too much over title 2 as we've covered that in previous episodes but uh

01:19:40.679 --> 01:19:46.920
they want to modernize title 2 we were talking about this before the show um I

01:19:45.320 --> 01:19:50.280
actually just kind of skimmed over it initially thought that modernized title

01:19:48.400 --> 01:19:55.000
2 just kind of meant that they're going to modernize the infrastructure behind

01:19:52.360 --> 01:20:00.960
title 2 like the physical infrastructure behind title 2 apparently they might be

01:19:58.280 --> 01:20:05.520
uh changing kind of how it works but a lot of it should be in terms of uh

01:20:03.520 --> 01:20:10.080
where's his exact wording for it tailoring it for the 21st century in

01:20:07.840 --> 01:20:17.080
order to provide returns necessary to construct competitive Network so so so

01:20:13.520 --> 01:20:20.520
yeah we're talking about the physical

01:20:17.080 --> 01:20:23.840
infrastructure changing and the rules of

01:20:20.520 --> 01:20:27.440
of title 2 altering to enable that to

01:20:23.840 --> 01:20:29.639
happen but if we if we were to take the

01:20:27.440 --> 01:20:34.960
optimistic approach to that statement and go oh it's to it's to prevent the

01:20:33.120 --> 01:20:41.719
kind of nonsense that's already been going on for the last decade with the

01:20:37.800 --> 01:20:43.560
internet um then then that that's great

01:20:41.719 --> 01:20:50.440
I mean some of the other points here no rate regulation no tariffs no Last Mile

01:20:47.560 --> 01:20:53.040
unbundling um and this means the action we take will be strong enough and

01:20:51.639 --> 01:20:56.960
flexible enough not only to deal with the realities of today but also to

01:20:54.719 --> 01:21:01.600
establish ground rules for the as yet unimagined the internet must be fast far

01:20:59.280 --> 01:21:04.840
and open this is the message I've heard if we're to sort of believe all this

01:21:03.239 --> 01:21:09.800
then this is incredibly good news it seems like too much of an about face for

01:21:07.120 --> 01:21:14.199
it all to be positive I feel like there has to be something and I'm worried

01:21:12.280 --> 01:21:20.239
about that that could be my like pessimism coming out

01:21:16.800 --> 01:21:21.760
but I mean the theory is that the FCC is

01:21:20.239 --> 01:21:26.000
supposed to be on the side of the consumer but they like haven't really

01:21:23.520 --> 01:21:31.600
shown that until now which is

01:21:27.280 --> 01:21:33.520
sketchy yeah I uh I just I just I mean I

01:21:31.600 --> 01:21:38.120
I got to wonder where they was he keeping quiet just because he didn't

01:21:35.760 --> 01:21:42.880
want to shake the boat yet and this was the plan all along I mean uh he brings

01:21:40.960 --> 01:21:47.199
up uh I don't think this is in our notes but it was in the article but he brings

01:21:44.440 --> 01:21:53.639
up a company that he used to work for that got uh contr F the nabo yeah I it's

01:21:51.520 --> 01:21:57.719
called Naboo it is in the notes is it tells the story of NAB the home computer

01:21:55.320 --> 01:22:01.320
network a competitor to AOL a startup that he was the president of that failed

01:21:59.480 --> 01:22:06.360
because networks acted as Gatekeepers so I mean you know was he

01:22:04.239 --> 01:22:11.239
was he on our side all this time I I I don't know don't really think so but

01:22:08.480 --> 01:22:15.320
maybe didn't look that way no um speaking of not being on our side this

01:22:13.199 --> 01:22:20.239
was posted by powder banks that last one was from Smitty shei and the previous

01:22:17.639 --> 01:22:24.000
one was from Alex Goes high and then the previous one was from assassin well we

01:22:21.600 --> 01:22:29.320
didn't do any for a bit um China will require real name registration for use

01:22:27.639 --> 01:22:33.280
of the internet and we're not talking real name registration like you have to

01:22:31.440 --> 01:22:36.920
pay for your internet service from your provider and you have to pay them with a

01:22:35.520 --> 01:22:42.760
credit card that has your name attached to it we're talking about the burden

01:22:39.520 --> 01:22:45.719
being put on isps and internet companies

01:22:42.760 --> 01:22:51.000
to enforce the new rules which are that the 650 million people who are online in

01:22:48.080 --> 01:22:56.159
China need to be personally identifiable online in their goings

01:22:53.560 --> 01:23:01.320
about super dumb I just now can I play Devil's

01:22:59.880 --> 01:23:05.280
Advocate or you just gonna get mad are you get all mad I know can you just stay

01:23:03.120 --> 01:23:09.360
calm for like two seconds thank you you know those are all things that just make

01:23:06.880 --> 01:23:17.600
people mad I know when you say okay um so okay so the The Devil's Advocate sort

01:23:12.880 --> 01:23:20.880
of um glass half full side of this is oh

01:23:17.600 --> 01:23:23.639
it will reduce you know uh inappropriate

01:23:20.880 --> 01:23:29.800
internet behaviors like swatting or trolling or or bullying or just just can

01:23:26.520 --> 01:23:32.679
you just I said two seconds two seconds

01:23:29.800 --> 01:23:39.679
I didn't get mad you I was watching you in the screen I saw what you did uh so

01:23:35.920 --> 01:23:42.440
let me take not being being identifiable

01:23:39.679 --> 01:23:47.360
online will lead to more personal accountability for one's actions when

01:23:45.080 --> 01:23:53.840
they go about their business online that is the that is the devil's advocate sort

01:23:50.320 --> 01:23:55.800
of version of that now what I actually

01:23:53.840 --> 01:23:59.880
personally think is that it's not going to help with that at all I mean there

01:23:57.320 --> 01:24:04.800
are sites and there are communities where they have tried to enforce uh

01:24:02.120 --> 01:24:11.440
people using their real names um didn't seem to help a whole lot with

01:24:06.800 --> 01:24:15.000
go+ um so so there's there's that but

01:24:11.440 --> 01:24:17.400
aside from aside from it not working the

01:24:15.000 --> 01:24:21.520
fact that there are communities that already have this that encourage the use

01:24:19.360 --> 01:24:25.600
of real names like Facebook means that if people wanted to engage in that way

01:24:24.080 --> 01:24:32.639
then they would go to those sites and they would do it this way we're not giving people a

01:24:30.199 --> 01:24:38.679
choice and it feels less like a benevolent sort of Nod to you know high

01:24:36.400 --> 01:24:42.239
school kids who are getting bullied and more of a way to keep tabs on what

01:24:40.719 --> 01:24:49.280
people are doing and what they're saying and in the context of of you know

01:24:45.560 --> 01:24:50.920
someone's being a dick to me on Twitter

01:24:49.280 --> 01:24:54.520
I guess yeah I would probably like to know who that person is so I can call

01:24:52.639 --> 01:24:59.159
their mom so that I can be like yo do you have any idea what your little crap

01:24:57.159 --> 01:25:04.600
turd of a son just said to me or daughter whatever you know gender

01:25:00.920 --> 01:25:08.239
equality um girls can be rude online too

01:25:04.600 --> 01:25:10.560
um so so that side of me is like yeah

01:25:08.239 --> 01:25:15.080
this is great but the flip side is you know what if someone lives in a country

01:25:12.520 --> 01:25:19.480
where they're oppressed for their religion or their or anything else about

01:25:17.280 --> 01:25:23.239
them and they can't they can't find other people they can't find support

01:25:21.159 --> 01:25:26.560
that's that's a huge problem where if they need to speak out against their

01:25:24.520 --> 01:25:30.360
government online or get access to news sources that are not censored by their

01:25:28.159 --> 01:25:34.480
local government I mean having anonymity as you browse the web is incredibly

01:25:31.600 --> 01:25:38.960
important can I talk now all right get all mad I'm not no I'm not getting mad

01:25:36.400 --> 01:25:43.159
you said uh because you you you Devil's Advocate and then you went back which is

01:25:41.000 --> 01:25:46.880
weird as a devil's advocate to well I didn't say I was a good Advocate you

01:25:44.560 --> 01:25:50.679
fought against yourself for way longer than you fought for Devil's advoc you

01:25:49.119 --> 01:25:56.679
were like here's some small points now I'm going to destroy

01:25:52.159 --> 01:25:58.600
myself like okay sure um you said less

01:25:56.679 --> 01:26:02.199
swatting and less trolling I think those are

01:26:00.159 --> 01:26:07.360
specifically totally wrong I think they'll be way more swatting cuz

01:26:04.520 --> 01:26:11.800
swatting is anonymous for the person that's doing it unless it's not and if

01:26:09.800 --> 01:26:16.320
every internet user was identifiable on every site that they're using right you

01:26:14.080 --> 01:26:19.960
could pick up a phone but if you pick up a phone then that's tied to your

01:26:17.760 --> 01:26:23.719
landline I'm assuming any any regime regime that's requiring you to register

01:26:21.600 --> 01:26:27.600
online proba knows there's always ways to file Anonymous yeah that's true

01:26:25.600 --> 01:26:30.880
information Anonymous information and that's how like basically okay squatting

01:26:29.320 --> 01:26:35.679
bad example online bullying though perhaps online bullying yes but this

01:26:33.000 --> 01:26:40.480
could pull more bullying and more trolling into the real world which is a

01:26:38.360 --> 01:26:43.560
lot worse than being bullied and trolled online not that we're saying online

01:26:41.760 --> 01:26:47.000
bullying isn't real and isn't a problem it's just no but saying I'm going to

01:26:45.119 --> 01:26:51.199
punch you in the face and actually punching someone in the face are very

01:26:49.280 --> 01:26:56.159
different things I would way rather someone goes I'm going to punch you in

01:26:53.040 --> 01:26:57.679
the face on on a keyboard and then

01:26:56.159 --> 01:27:02.360
finish the game we're playing in and go on to other matchmaking instead of

01:26:59.520 --> 01:27:06.199
having them go Kabam in real life right and now obviously not every time that

01:27:04.520 --> 01:27:10.320
happens is it going to happen but when people can't vent their frustration in

01:27:07.880 --> 01:27:12.960
that way uh it might happen more in the real world this is actually something

01:27:11.360 --> 01:27:16.719
that's been happening in terms of uh studies with violent video games a lot

01:27:15.560 --> 01:27:22.480
which is where a lot of people can use it as a venting mechanism instead of actually doing it it reduces violent

01:27:20.119 --> 01:27:27.760
crimes by a lot where you can play like GTA and just do stupid crap and then go

01:27:24.600 --> 01:27:30.280
play golf afterwards in GTA um is

01:27:27.760 --> 01:27:33.080
actually helping reduce a lot of the like violent crappy things you might do

01:27:31.760 --> 01:27:36.560
in real life because you can you can vent it's an interesting idea and if

01:27:35.040 --> 01:27:39.679
you're removing all of that that's actually not a good thing I'm not

01:27:38.199 --> 01:27:45.080
advocating for trolling on the internet I think trolling on the Internet is stupid the amount of crap that happened

01:27:42.920 --> 01:27:49.280
on The Forum over the 970 thing was ridiculous and like totally not okay and

01:27:47.800 --> 01:27:54.239
I lost a lot of respect for a lot of people on The Forum but I'm happy that

01:27:52.560 --> 01:27:59.080
wasn't a whole bunch of people standing in a building fighting each other cuz

01:27:56.920 --> 01:28:04.199
that would have been worse like I don't know this is fairly like

01:28:01.719 --> 01:28:07.760
straightforward stuff I don't know all right so let's move on to something

01:28:05.840 --> 01:28:14.239
that's also fairly straightforward uh this was posted by nine shadow on the

01:28:09.360 --> 01:28:17.000
Forum the Samsung Galaxy S6 chassis has

01:28:14.239 --> 01:28:23.400
been leaked allegedly uh it looks like it's going to have an all metal non

01:28:19.360 --> 01:28:25.119
removable back uh appears to look fairly

01:28:23.400 --> 01:28:29.159
similar to the iPhone Ione 6 I'd love to show it to you guys uh actually

01:28:30.000 --> 01:28:40.440
Galaxy S6 here we go blah blah blah blah

01:28:36.360 --> 01:28:40.440
blah chassis

01:28:40.639 --> 01:28:49.040
leak okay blue okay let's go come on Forbes

01:28:47.119 --> 01:28:53.679
hate that thing continue to site here we go so here's the article from Forbes

01:28:51.520 --> 01:29:00.199
where they're showing how very Apple like the alleged Galaxy S6 chassis is

01:28:57.920 --> 01:29:05.400
going to look that is very they're going to get the pants suit off of them yeah

01:29:03.400 --> 01:29:10.320
that seems very possible so let's go ahead and tuck tuck that away for now

01:29:07.199 --> 01:29:11.800
tuck tuck yep um I think there's a

01:29:10.320 --> 01:29:15.400
reference there that I missed a few people will get that so it's going to

01:29:13.600 --> 01:29:19.639
use glass material in the front and back some of them are apparently going to

01:29:16.880 --> 01:29:24.400
have like curved curved screens uh like curved Edge screens and some of them are

01:29:21.520 --> 01:29:28.760
not um Samsung pay is said to be embedded in the phone good luck with

01:29:25.639 --> 01:29:30.280
that Samsung um might be based on

01:29:28.760 --> 01:29:34.880
magnetic emitting that mimics your credit card so not NFC uh potentially

01:29:33.239 --> 01:29:38.440

01:29:36.560 --> 01:29:41.960
still wish them luck although Apple pay is apparently only available in 200

01:29:40.119 --> 01:29:46.800
100,000 spots for me it's more of a trust issue and less of a um like

01:29:45.440 --> 01:29:51.520
trusting the technology Apple does a good job know I hear you yeah um

01:29:48.600 --> 01:29:58.639
complely agree apparently the rear will be non- removable so as much as the S5

01:29:56.400 --> 01:30:04.119
was not a huge success for Samsung and I think that's kind of putting it lightly

01:30:00.600 --> 01:30:08.000
I think that taking away the things that

01:30:04.119 --> 01:30:11.920
made the Galaxy S the Galaxy S um things

01:30:08.000 --> 01:30:14.760
like removable battery is

01:30:11.920 --> 01:30:19.719
probably not like I I don't I don't see an iPhone 6 clone being a way to win new

01:30:17.520 --> 01:30:23.480
customers and I don't see taking away the things that sold your phone to

01:30:21.199 --> 01:30:28.040
someone else a generation or two ago being to retain your existing customers

01:30:25.880 --> 01:30:32.520
so I really have to wonder what exactly is the plan here right now or if it's

01:30:29.920 --> 01:30:36.639
real or if it's even real yeah could be totally fake so there's that I I really

01:30:35.119 --> 01:30:40.400
wonder sometimes these things are freakishly accurate so it it could be

01:30:38.639 --> 01:30:45.480
right but it's it's is really close yes more often than

01:30:43.199 --> 01:30:49.280
not Yep this is really really close I have to clarify something I think a few

01:30:47.520 --> 01:30:52.600
people in the chat thought I meant that people attacking NVIDIA on the Forum

01:30:51.280 --> 01:30:57.159
was super bad I wasn't talking about that I was talking about personal insults going to each other yeah we

01:30:55.800 --> 01:31:00.480
don't want members fighting we don't care if people are upset with that's

01:30:58.960 --> 01:31:05.360
like a rule on the Forum you're allowed to attack companies you're not all sh

01:31:02.560 --> 01:31:09.840
sweater bring back the shill sweater so you can attack lonus on the forum for

01:31:07.440 --> 01:31:13.400
wearing a shill sweater CU that's fine but you can't attack lonus for well

01:31:11.800 --> 01:31:18.000
actually you can attack lonus on fair game we that's what I'm saying we don't we don't count we are members but we

01:31:16.639 --> 01:31:21.080
don't count you can attack us and you can attack companies but don't attack

01:31:19.760 --> 01:31:26.880
other members of The Forum that's not a thing if you disagree with what they're saying use an intelligent argument to

01:31:25.159 --> 01:31:32.159
talk about how you disagree with what or better yet don't reply no because there

01:31:29.960 --> 01:31:37.800
could be intelligent argument yeah then don't reply yeah if they seem to be

01:31:34.920 --> 01:31:40.320
stuck in their way yeah yep recognize when people are trolling you like this

01:31:39.600 --> 01:31:45.920
right now yeah you did that at really good

01:31:43.560 --> 01:31:50.159
timing you owe me a coke I don't want a Coke I think you already owed me a coke

01:31:47.880 --> 01:31:56.480
from our last text Jinks yeah we'll call it even we can just buy each other

01:31:52.280 --> 01:31:56.480
nothing that works better for

01:31:56.960 --> 01:32:03.040
me all right so the Nintendo creators

01:32:00.679 --> 01:32:08.159
program which was already ridiculous so you guys I mean if you've been following

01:32:04.760 --> 01:32:10.840
this whole Fiasco Nintendo was claiming

01:32:08.159 --> 01:32:15.239
monetization against uh let's players and game streamers who were streaming

01:32:13.040 --> 01:32:20.119
their games um you know based on that they're using the in-game music and

01:32:17.040 --> 01:32:22.560
artwork without um having created it

01:32:20.119 --> 01:32:25.719
themselves when the content creators the guys who are playing the games are are

01:32:24.239 --> 01:32:32.320
arguing that it's actually their commentary that is the content and this

01:32:28.719 --> 01:32:35.560
is a fair use whatever anyway um so

01:32:32.320 --> 01:32:38.199
Nintendo sort of about faced on that and

01:32:35.560 --> 01:32:45.159
created the Nintendo creators program that would allow creators to register as

01:32:41.520 --> 01:32:47.880
approved creators um and then

01:32:45.159 --> 01:32:54.719
they started introducing that they want a share of the revenue so I believe it's

01:32:50.719 --> 01:32:58.159
a 6040 split by default and now

01:32:54.719 --> 01:33:01.840
now they are offering a 7030 split if

01:32:58.159 --> 01:33:04.719
creators are willing to remove any non

01:33:01.840 --> 01:33:08.960
Nintendo content from their videos like non- Nintendo

01:33:10.440 --> 01:33:17.880
games like are they for real this is there isn't even a debate

01:33:15.239 --> 01:33:21.480
for us to have like are they are they are they even I I said this before the

01:33:19.880 --> 01:33:26.719
show this GNA be kind of a boring topic because there's you like can't really

01:33:24.520 --> 01:33:34.960
have another stance I can't even Devil's Advocate you

01:33:30.360 --> 01:33:37.600
like what do you want 5% I I even no I

01:33:34.960 --> 01:33:41.520
even I even tried to to I like I don't know if you remember this but back when

01:33:39.119 --> 01:33:45.080
they first started claiming monetization that was back when we were doing

01:33:42.719 --> 01:33:49.600
Nintendo streams on the Afterparty I was like well I kind of get it it is their

01:33:47.400 --> 01:33:54.400
music and it is their asset and in much the same way that if I put someone

01:33:51.080 --> 01:33:56.719
else's music as a backdrop to w show

01:33:54.400 --> 01:34:02.159
they could claim the monetization from it well okay yeah I I guess so but if

01:33:59.480 --> 01:34:07.840
you're going to then go and say well no okay we do understand the benefit that

01:34:05.400 --> 01:34:15.600
game streamers and let's players have especially for titles like a Super Smash

01:34:11.040 --> 01:34:18.119
Brothers for example where there is no

01:34:15.600 --> 01:34:23.080
there is no entertainment in the viewing experience that overlaps with the

01:34:20.719 --> 01:34:28.719
entertainment of the playing experience spectating Super Smash and playing Super

01:34:25.840 --> 01:34:32.199
Smash are two distinctly different experiences and the people who are into

01:34:30.360 --> 01:34:36.719
that might not necessarily have been into that and weren't going to buy it anyway necessarily and the people who

01:34:34.400 --> 01:34:41.760
want to play it story driven watching it is not a replacement so particularly for

01:34:39.679 --> 01:34:45.360
games like that or like a Mario Kart these are these are great examples of

01:34:43.719 --> 01:34:50.159
competitive style stuff different experiences viewing versus playing um so

01:34:48.520 --> 01:34:56.199
so Nintendo has acknowledged oh maybe there is a benefit to this maybe we shouldn't take all the money away from

01:34:52.840 --> 01:34:58.880
people who are driving eyeballs to our

01:34:56.199 --> 01:35:03.239
to our games um but then they go and they kind of they want to like nickel

01:35:00.440 --> 01:35:08.639
and dime these people like oh no we like really need the revenue so badly because

01:35:05.600 --> 01:35:10.639
Wii U and smash and Mario Kart are not

01:35:08.639 --> 01:35:14.719
selling really well and the entire Internet isn't hyped over the moon about

01:35:12.760 --> 01:35:19.400
the upcoming Zelda game pretty well right now yeah Wii U and smash and Mario

01:35:17.880 --> 01:35:26.000
Kart are specifically doing pretty good right now so they should like not do

01:35:22.280 --> 01:35:28.440
this cuz they're probably

01:35:26.000 --> 01:35:33.440
fine it's frustrating so basically we don't even game stream but we think this

01:35:30.159 --> 01:35:36.280
is ridiculous you game stream yeah yeah

01:35:33.440 --> 01:35:40.480
so that's ridiculous um I've I've done game streaming of Nintendo content

01:35:37.960 --> 01:35:45.119
because I just don't care I'm not into it for that I want to

01:35:43.119 --> 01:35:49.159
play freaking Mario Kart so like whatever leave me alone yeah it helps

01:35:47.159 --> 01:35:53.040
that you have a day job yes but I mean it's one of those things where you know

01:35:51.199 --> 01:35:55.920
it's it's easy for us to say yeah if we want to stream game we're really not

01:35:54.520 --> 01:35:59.800
going to give to craps about it because our day job is making Tech videos but

01:35:58.159 --> 01:36:03.040
for people who do rely on it this is extremely frustrating and this is the

01:36:01.360 --> 01:36:07.320
kind of problem that we do potentially face in the future where it's powers

01:36:04.960 --> 01:36:12.040
that be that control our Revenue stream not us it's funny I actually I saw a

01:36:10.040 --> 01:36:16.040
comment on uh I think it was on whole room water cooling something anyway U

01:36:14.480 --> 01:36:20.920
someone asked what do these guys do for a living and uh I was I was about to

01:36:19.520 --> 01:36:24.600
reply and I saw there was already a reply I think they build computers I'm

01:36:23.320 --> 01:36:29.239
like what how can you watch our videos and

01:36:26.920 --> 01:36:33.000
not know that we make videos for a living uh some people don't understand

01:36:31.239 --> 01:36:38.080
how long it takes to make it I guess that's true yeah I mean actually you

01:36:35.679 --> 01:36:46.280
know what perfect example of this um my wife Yvonne had no idea how long b-roll

01:36:42.679 --> 01:36:48.760
takes for the upgraded new and improved

01:36:46.280 --> 01:36:51.960
Linus Tech tips format cuz Brandon was over at my house which is the only place

01:36:50.480 --> 01:36:55.119
where there's enough room to set up that oo gaming cockpit for which by the way

01:36:54.280 --> 01:37:01.119
is coming out this weekend pretty excited for that I'm going to watch that one yeah um so he was over filming it

01:36:59.520 --> 01:37:05.920
and we were there for like you know 5 hours and she was like yeah I had no

01:37:03.600 --> 01:37:10.040
idea it takes so long like yeah and the editing takes even longer than that so

01:37:08.639 --> 01:37:15.199
there I me there's pre-production and then there's actual filming which is

01:37:11.880 --> 01:37:16.400
actually by far the shortest part yeah

01:37:15.199 --> 01:37:23.719
scripting writing fil uh editing uh testing things

01:37:20.800 --> 01:37:26.480
learning about the product roll all those things take a lot longer than me

01:37:25.480 --> 01:37:33.320
standing there and reading off a teleprompter Nick testing the actual video setting it live at the right time

01:37:30.639 --> 01:37:37.639
yeah the Forum topic all that stuff there's tons of things all right well I

01:37:36.080 --> 01:37:42.560
think that's pretty much it for the L show for tonight you guys are awesome

01:37:40.639 --> 01:37:50.360
and we thank you for watching really hot in here I know it's getting hot in here

01:37:46.400 --> 01:37:53.679
so turn off all the clothes I am getting

01:37:50.360 --> 01:37:57.239
hot I will take my clothes off then

01:37:53.679 --> 01:37:57.239
their monetization for the stream was

01:38:02.280 --> 01:38:10.040
stolen TGI Friday TG

01:38:07.360 --> 01:38:14.780
oh every time I hear that I think of the restaurant yeah but I know the

01:38:12.440 --> 01:38:17.159
restaurant's not the original

01:38:17.159 --> 01:38:23.719
no mop your squares spaces with

01:38:20.719 --> 01:38:23.719
knowledge

01:38:24.000 --> 01:38:29.840
learn about how things fall I'm just going to cut you off
