the occasional 00:00:11.280 --> 00:00:18.240 little sort of snippets of insight i get into you and your lives through the twitch 00:00:15.599 --> 00:00:24.160 chat and some of you are my friends who i um have met once in person 00:00:21.760 --> 00:00:29.760 and i guess we dm'd on twitter a little bit so welcome to the show this is 00:00:27.439 --> 00:00:34.640 wendell from level one text he is going to be co-hosting the show with me today 00:00:31.679 --> 00:00:38.879 luke is attending a nintendo event and uh i think i'll leave it to him to 00:00:36.800 --> 00:00:45.040 introduce himself and talk a little bit about who he is before we get started 00:00:42.879 --> 00:00:48.640 howdy i'm i'm wendell i'm just another nerd it's fine you can check us out at 00:00:46.559 --> 00:00:51.440 levelone.tech but uh 00:00:50.079 --> 00:00:57.360 i don't really know what to tell you my background's computer science i like nerding out i've got some earl grey tea 00:00:54.879 --> 00:01:01.840 and we're going to talk about the news and it's going to be awesome and i don't 00:00:58.879 --> 00:01:05.280 know why that oh right i don't have this there we go all right there we go there 00:01:03.440 --> 00:01:09.360 we go all right so i just posted a link to his youtube channel 00:01:07.280 --> 00:01:11.680 in the twitch chat there so you guys are going to want to go check that out we're 00:01:10.720 --> 00:01:17.759 going to have that linked under the youtube archive as well in the meantime i'm going to roll the intro which i 00:01:15.280 --> 00:01:23.280 spent most of the time prior to the show being late today putting our entire 00:01:20.320 --> 00:01:28.479 audio setup back together because and this was a very ill-advised move on my 00:01:25.439 --> 00:01:30.720 part i took it all off and unplugged it 00:01:28.479 --> 00:01:35.759 all about half an hour before the show was supposed to start because i was 00:01:33.280 --> 00:01:38.799 actually making a video about wendell you you would love this thing uh 00:01:37.520 --> 00:01:43.680 actually you know what here hold on a second let me uh let me see if i have my 00:01:41.200 --> 00:01:47.600 uh oh oh i do have it can i just can i just throw this up here yeah it's sick 00:01:45.360 --> 00:01:52.840 okay so i'm just gonna i'm just gonna full screen this 00:01:49.280 --> 00:01:57.840 all the usb cameras check this thing 00:01:52.840 --> 00:01:57.840 out that is a server cabinet 00:01:58.719 --> 00:02:04.880 wait he can't see it no wendell can't see it he's he's on a different he's on 00:02:02.799 --> 00:02:09.759 a different computer okay four post server rack that uh is amazing 00:02:07.600 --> 00:02:12.879 and magical hold on well okay they can see it if you were watching the twitch 00:02:11.440 --> 00:02:16.319 stream then you'd be able to see it can you see it now 00:02:14.480 --> 00:02:20.319 uh is it the oh that's the one that looks like a uh yeah that's from uh i 00:02:18.480 --> 00:02:24.800 star usa that's right yeah that's uh you know there's a law 00:02:22.879 --> 00:02:28.560 firm i'm aware of a law firm that bought one of those because of an unfortunate 00:02:26.480 --> 00:02:34.000 placement of a 24-port switch and they're like where they're the line came 00:02:30.640 --> 00:02:35.760 in for like their fiber or whatever 00:02:34.000 --> 00:02:40.000 the lawyer's offices and he's like this is this is uncalled for and that totally 00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:44.000 is like a good solution for that yep i think it's a great solution if you're 00:02:41.920 --> 00:02:49.040 looking to increase the sort of wife factor appeal of something like a um you 00:02:46.800 --> 00:02:52.319 know a bunch of audio recording gear so so basically i was trying to find every 00:02:50.640 --> 00:02:56.400 rack mount cool looking thing with lots of dials and switches on it and throw it 00:02:54.239 --> 00:03:00.400 in there and i took pictures of where all the cables went because i have no 00:02:57.920 --> 00:03:04.640 idea how to set up our compressor our preamp our headphone amp for monitoring 00:03:02.720 --> 00:03:09.360 in our mixer i had no idea focusrite flew here to set it up for me 00:03:07.200 --> 00:03:12.720 and uh so i but i i forgot 00:03:11.120 --> 00:03:16.640 even taking a picture wasn't enough for me because i forgot 00:03:14.560 --> 00:03:19.440 that i had taken a picture of the front where there was also some very important 00:03:18.159 --> 00:03:24.800 stuff so i put all the back stuff back together like why isn't the morning room 00:03:22.400 --> 00:03:28.720 working anyway 00:03:26.000 --> 00:03:31.040 let's roll the intro which doesn't work and 00:03:29.760 --> 00:03:34.319 sorry there's a bit of a delay on the line there i'm sorry i'm sorry i don't 00:03:32.799 --> 00:03:39.040 know i was gonna say it doesn't matter you've got 465 people so it's fine 00:03:37.599 --> 00:03:45.440 yeah all right we'll be right back we'll be right back intro time 00:03:42.799 --> 00:03:48.560 yes i haven't fixed this file yet it has no audio 00:03:49.760 --> 00:03:55.200 that has a picture of luke but luke's not on the show today because it's 00:03:52.879 --> 00:03:55.200 wendell 00:03:57.120 --> 00:04:03.840 okay yep i'd pause the thing okay Linus tech tips 00:04:00.720 --> 00:04:06.400 and they have sponsors because 00:04:03.840 --> 00:04:12.080 otherwise they would not be able to pay their bills which is cool i guess okay 00:04:09.040 --> 00:04:12.959 and we're back 00:04:12.080 --> 00:04:17.120 so i've got a few people asking me to turn wendell up a little bit i'm going to 00:04:15.680 --> 00:04:22.400 turn you up a little bit see if that makes them happy although a lot of people are saying it's perfect 10 out of 00:04:20.000 --> 00:04:27.199 10. so uh i'm going to go with that and selective taking selective feedback this 00:04:24.479 --> 00:04:30.320 is the new way is it not taking the the things you want to hear and focusing on 00:04:29.360 --> 00:04:36.320 those how is it down in america actually we don't get political on the show anymore 00:04:33.360 --> 00:04:36.320 so you don't have to answer that 00:04:36.720 --> 00:04:40.320 yes yes 00:04:40.800 --> 00:04:43.800 27 00:04:44.800 --> 00:04:50.400 i'm glad you asked i'm just gonna drink some more of this 00:04:49.040 --> 00:04:54.479 tea that's code for i don't know what's 00:04:52.240 --> 00:04:59.840 going on help me fortunately this tea isn't from mexico or i'd be paying 20 00:04:57.040 --> 00:04:59.840 more for it now 00:05:01.040 --> 00:05:04.320 so much for nafta i mean 00:05:05.680 --> 00:05:12.639 yep okay why don't we talk about something 00:05:08.880 --> 00:05:15.520 that is a far less political and uh less 00:05:12.639 --> 00:05:20.400 controversial subject that was you know a source of less strife for you in the 00:05:17.840 --> 00:05:25.759 last little bit you got to explain why are you level one text now 00:05:23.039 --> 00:05:29.199 well see there's much less drama right yeah we kind of we kind of started over 00:05:27.520 --> 00:05:34.240 i you know i wasn't really sure it was a lot of fun i kind of like doing this you 00:05:31.759 --> 00:05:39.840 know so i'm i've i've been a consultant for you know the better part of a decade 00:05:36.560 --> 00:05:40.720 and um i do programming and this this 00:05:39.840 --> 00:05:46.960 sort of thing was fun to show off stuff but we have this really amazing 00:05:44.639 --> 00:05:50.479 community and so i didn't really want to abandon the community as it were because 00:05:48.720 --> 00:05:54.080 there's a lot of people in the community that are like it pros or their students 00:05:52.479 --> 00:05:57.600 that are like coming up and they're like i don't know if i want to study computer science or if i want to get into 00:05:56.320 --> 00:06:02.240 networking or i want to do whatever and it's like well you know maybe we could take a sort 00:06:01.120 --> 00:06:07.600 of different a different tack on this and do 00:06:05.199 --> 00:06:11.440 some you know admittedly niche content niche stuff the the Linux content was 00:06:09.520 --> 00:06:17.199 really popular i get to meet some really amazing guys um i got i get to meet eric 00:06:14.960 --> 00:06:21.840 raymond and tron guy you know tron guy you've seen tron guy right 00:06:18.800 --> 00:06:23.520 i actually am not familiar with tron guy 00:06:21.840 --> 00:06:27.440 yeah he's i'm sorry if you google tron oh just oh the meme 00:06:26.000 --> 00:06:33.039 okay yes yeah yeah so it turns out that guy 00:06:29.759 --> 00:06:36.240 is an insanely brilliant um mainframe 00:06:33.039 --> 00:06:39.600 expert and so i've met him and actually 00:06:36.240 --> 00:06:42.000 got to talk to him about um system 390 00:06:39.600 --> 00:06:46.080 and he works in the hercules emulator and uh he's just a fascinating brilliant 00:06:45.199 --> 00:06:50.880 guy and so it's just level one is about that 00:06:49.280 --> 00:06:55.120 kind of stuff it's about those kind of projects because you never know 00:06:53.199 --> 00:06:59.599 you know who the celebrity meme person is going to be that actually works on a 00:06:57.120 --> 00:07:05.840 you know like a mainframe emulator yes star wars kid he's he's a sound designer 00:07:03.199 --> 00:07:08.800 oh i didn't know no no no no no i think he ended up getting bullied 00:07:07.440 --> 00:07:11.680 and dropping out of school or something like that i'm not sure exactly what 00:07:10.479 --> 00:07:17.840 happened there oh well that kind of sucks i guess yeah 00:07:13.759 --> 00:07:17.840 no that's actually not very funny um 00:07:18.720 --> 00:07:23.680 let's have been good yep okay 00:07:24.000 --> 00:07:30.319 so are you going to are you going to touch on any of the i mean i'm sure 00:07:28.720 --> 00:07:34.160 people would be would love to hear your side of the story the entire chat is 00:07:31.840 --> 00:07:37.199 going like uh blah blah blah text indicate this text indicate that are you 00:07:35.599 --> 00:07:42.319 gonna are you gonna talk about it no i don't think so 00:07:40.319 --> 00:07:47.039 it's just it was fun while it lasted 00:07:44.400 --> 00:07:50.560 uh this is a little bit different and it is what it is so 00:07:49.599 --> 00:07:55.440 yeah having fun so far yeah so far it's actually been i was 00:07:54.160 --> 00:07:59.759 actually kind of surprised by the community the the community was like you 00:07:57.680 --> 00:08:03.599 should do this and you know don't go away and blah blah blah it was like okay 00:08:01.520 --> 00:08:07.759 well i mean i guess that's fine uh and so that that worked out really 00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:11.680 well i was really surprised by you know the support from the community 00:08:09.840 --> 00:08:15.599 so far and just kind of trying this as an experiment and doing doing fun 00:08:13.360 --> 00:08:20.560 interesting stuff but you know i don't this this whole like youtube e-celebrity 00:08:18.319 --> 00:08:23.599 whatever i don't really like honestly i really don't fully get it like i just i 00:08:22.319 --> 00:08:28.319 don't really i'm just nerding out and i guess the 00:08:26.240 --> 00:08:32.719 audience is along for the ride so what you don't uh you you don't 00:08:31.199 --> 00:08:37.919 you don't get uh you know why someone might think that 00:08:36.000 --> 00:08:41.519 like jenna marbles is the most amazing person on earth or 00:08:39.519 --> 00:08:44.880 i just i feel every time i make a video there's a little voice in the back of my 00:08:42.959 --> 00:08:48.240 head that is like you self-important blowhard why are you doing this this 00:08:46.480 --> 00:08:51.440 doesn't make any sense at all and it's just like well 00:08:49.519 --> 00:08:56.240 i get i mean it's like i'm spreading the gospel of open source and and uh and 00:08:53.839 --> 00:08:59.519 Linux and and you know knowledge is power and all that kind of stuff so i 00:08:57.680 --> 00:09:03.120 guess it's all right yeah you guys i mean just from like a 00:09:01.200 --> 00:09:08.560 purely sort of um you know self-important blowhard sort of uh 00:09:06.560 --> 00:09:12.320 you know but really focused on being an e-celebrity sort of perspective you guys 00:09:10.399 --> 00:09:16.720 are doing really well i mean for such a new channel 130 000 00:09:14.640 --> 00:09:20.640 subscribers but more importantly than that the last four videos are averaging 00:09:18.959 --> 00:09:25.519 about 30 000 views give or take 00:09:22.880 --> 00:09:30.080 each or the last five or so which means that a quarter of your audience 00:09:28.640 --> 00:09:33.360 is watching is interested yeah everything you put up 00:09:32.320 --> 00:09:39.200 i mean for me people can look at it and they'll go oh yeah he's got like 3.6 million 00:09:36.800 --> 00:09:44.880 subscribers but we're averaging like 500 600 000 views per video so that means 00:09:41.839 --> 00:09:46.560 that like one seventh and i'm not that 00:09:44.880 --> 00:09:50.480 great at mental math so hopefully that's pretty close but closer to a sixth or a 00:09:48.720 --> 00:09:53.680 seventh so those are like really really impressive numbers 00:09:52.000 --> 00:10:00.080 it's it's really kind of weird though because like some of the content is 00:09:57.519 --> 00:10:04.640 really really esoteric like we did like the smb multi-channel video and i can't 00:10:02.959 --> 00:10:08.399 i can't imagine that anybody would have just a casual interest in that but if 00:10:07.040 --> 00:10:12.959 you're a system administrator or somebody that's like been through that banging your head against a wall there's 00:10:11.519 --> 00:10:16.000 information in there that you just you can't get anywhere else because 00:10:15.120 --> 00:10:21.120 uh nobody has bothered to ride it up and plus microsoft's changed it like 12 00:10:19.920 --> 00:10:26.160 different times so uh you know but there's a it's really 00:10:23.600 --> 00:10:28.800 dense technical information so i guess that's good and the Linux videos are 00:10:27.519 --> 00:10:33.600 kind of like that but um the storage server video there's 00:10:31.839 --> 00:10:37.200 not really a lot of technical content in that we the first version of that was 00:10:35.360 --> 00:10:40.800 like an hour long and it had a lot of technical information but we sort of did 00:10:39.200 --> 00:10:45.519 a funny skit in it i don't know if you saw it or not but you you there was a little picture of 00:10:43.360 --> 00:10:49.839 you and on a picture and there was on the wall and some other you know tech 00:10:47.600 --> 00:10:52.959 youtubers and yarn it was kind of funny but uh you have to watch it 00:10:51.600 --> 00:10:57.920 when we're building our storage server and so it's a it's a it's based on a 00:10:55.360 --> 00:11:01.600 fedora which is a distribution of Linux and it's using zfs and so there's about 00:10:59.920 --> 00:11:05.360 a hundred hard drives and four rack mount chassis and an old 00:11:03.120 --> 00:11:09.680 google server and so it's 172 terabytes and i had a blast not only building that 00:11:07.839 --> 00:11:13.279 but also sort of documenting it on video at one point i rode the rack 00:11:11.519 --> 00:11:16.079 it's on a wheeled rack and so at one point i rode the rack like a skateboard 00:11:14.720 --> 00:11:20.000 around the office and there's a little a little bit of that in the video 00:11:17.839 --> 00:11:23.440 but uh doing that kind of like i'm gonna i'm doing that stuff anyway whether or 00:11:21.839 --> 00:11:26.560 not it's on camera and so now it's just like oh i can do it on camera and people 00:11:24.959 --> 00:11:31.360 watch that and you know there's ad dollars for that okay sounds good i 00:11:28.640 --> 00:11:36.560 could just buy more random crap so i mean the intention for you is never 00:11:34.480 --> 00:11:41.360 to turn this into your full-time gig is it i don't think so 00:11:38.720 --> 00:11:47.120 the the the interesting situation i mean maybe but the situation is that a lot of 00:11:44.800 --> 00:11:50.320 the stuff that that we would be doing videos on 00:11:48.480 --> 00:11:53.519 are things that i'm doing professionally or things that are connected to things 00:11:52.160 --> 00:11:57.279 that i'm doing professionally and so like we're working on a video right now 00:11:55.200 --> 00:12:01.519 on docker which is like a programming thing and if i weren't doing that 00:11:59.760 --> 00:12:04.959 professionally i don't know that i would 00:12:02.880 --> 00:12:07.279 know enough about it to do a video that's like this is how you get started 00:12:06.240 --> 00:12:12.880 with docker this is how you're productive with this same thing with like zfs and the server it's like if i 00:12:10.880 --> 00:12:16.880 wasn't doing it professionally i don't know that i would 00:12:14.639 --> 00:12:20.560 sort of figure that out and i don't know the content would be 00:12:18.399 --> 00:12:24.000 interesting i'm just throwing up your uh throwing up your video here on the on 00:12:22.240 --> 00:12:29.040 the screen share so people can see you sitting next to what is that a 6u 00:12:26.560 --> 00:12:32.399 uh it's two it's four for you cabinets and one to you server well that i think 00:12:31.200 --> 00:12:36.399 oh you're probably not looking at the same uh frame of the video as me okay so 00:12:35.120 --> 00:12:40.240 there you go there's this is a good view of it so there's the there's the two 00:12:38.639 --> 00:12:44.000 four u's right there you guys and then there's the 2u right up there 00:12:42.560 --> 00:12:48.240 um let's see if i can find your fun little 00:12:46.160 --> 00:12:53.120 skit part where do you where do you ride the where do you ride the 00:12:50.079 --> 00:12:54.959 rack because that sounds amazing 00:12:53.120 --> 00:12:58.880 there's a gif of it somewhere that the people have already made so it's it's 00:12:57.200 --> 00:13:03.040 probably it's there's it's probably in the description or something i don't know but it's uh 00:13:02.160 --> 00:13:07.760 uh yeah it just ended up being kind of nuts 00:13:05.680 --> 00:13:11.360 and it's not insanely fast it's only got one 10 gig interface right now i've got 00:13:09.519 --> 00:13:14.639 to get a dual 10 gig adapter for it but it can move a 00:13:12.880 --> 00:13:18.079 Gigabyte per second no problem and it's all spinning rust i do have one NVMe in 00:13:16.560 --> 00:13:21.440 there for caching but but uh other than that it's all spinning 00:13:19.760 --> 00:13:26.480 rust which is not bad so we are we are finally uh oh i ha i 00:13:24.720 --> 00:13:31.519 have figured out how i'm doing the archival storage actually 00:13:29.600 --> 00:13:34.800 so it looks like we're gonna be using blaster fs 00:13:32.880 --> 00:13:40.639 cool that's awesome that will be good i think so that's um right now 00:13:38.160 --> 00:13:45.279 we've got all of the super fast stuff so the pure NVMe storage server that's 00:13:42.720 --> 00:13:48.800 running Windows server native smb there's 00:13:46.160 --> 00:13:53.760 a lot to be said for it um is it perfect no 00:13:49.600 --> 00:13:56.320 but support for pure NVMe diy solutions 00:13:53.760 --> 00:13:58.480 right now as far as i can tell is sort of 00:13:57.199 --> 00:14:02.720 yeah not really exist not doesn't really 00:14:00.560 --> 00:14:07.040 exist i mean if you want to go to ibm or something and you want to buy some hyper 00:14:04.959 --> 00:14:13.360 fast you know 100 you know Gigabyte like you know super 00:14:10.399 --> 00:14:18.079 flash storage doodad that plunks into a proprietary system sure go for it um 00:14:16.800 --> 00:14:21.440 yeah you gotta be careful with those because they'll happily take your fifty 00:14:19.920 --> 00:14:26.000 thousand dollars but it doesn't always live up to the hype i mean 00:14:23.920 --> 00:14:29.120 uh it's just you gotta get one and play with it and don't be afraid to send it 00:14:27.440 --> 00:14:32.800 back even though it costs you know five six figures but that's the thing is on 00:14:30.959 --> 00:14:38.720 the very high end there's that on the very low end there's you're not buying 00:14:36.320 --> 00:14:41.920 48 NVMe drives because you're trying to do it more cheaply than that so and 00:14:40.480 --> 00:14:45.760 there's this there's this in between that super micro built this server that 00:14:43.680 --> 00:14:51.040 i don't understand who the customer is for but i ended up with one and uh and 00:14:48.880 --> 00:14:55.680 so Windows Windows server it is i guess for now anyway so we've got that for 00:14:53.199 --> 00:15:00.320 high speed and then we're moving to uh gluster fs uh running on i forget some 00:14:58.720 --> 00:15:04.079 Linux distro once again i'm having people who understand it better than i 00:15:01.920 --> 00:15:08.480 do uh fly up here and set it up for me so uh brett from 45 drives is actually 00:15:06.880 --> 00:15:13.199 coming up to set us up so we are actually aiming and i'm not sure if 00:15:10.720 --> 00:15:17.040 we're going to get there yet because that moolah but we are aiming to do a 00:15:15.440 --> 00:15:21.040 one petabyte storage machine the petabyte price nice 00:15:19.920 --> 00:15:26.079 nice seagate just laid off a bunch of people though so i don't know what that means 00:15:24.639 --> 00:15:29.519 for the hard drive industry spinning rust yeah well they laid off a bunch of 00:15:28.480 --> 00:15:34.320 people we talked about this on the wine show last week actually so i don't think we can do it as a full topic but they 00:15:32.959 --> 00:15:37.519 they laid off a bunch of people and they closed down like 00:15:36.079 --> 00:15:43.519 significantly into double-digit percentages of their hard drive production capacity 00:15:41.760 --> 00:15:47.360 at that time had they announced the 14 and 16 terabyte drives i had just 00:15:45.440 --> 00:15:51.440 noticed that the last few days no i don't think so 00:15:49.120 --> 00:15:56.160 yeah they just announced 14 and 16 terabyte capacity drives 00:15:54.399 --> 00:16:00.560 but i can't get any information out of them on the throughput of the drives 00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:04.240 because it seems like the capacity of the drives have been going up and up and 00:16:02.320 --> 00:16:08.880 up and up but the throughput on the drives really hasn't improved all that 00:16:05.920 --> 00:16:13.839 much and like our i mean you know our storage array is basically 00:16:10.959 --> 00:16:18.079 uh surplus so it was retired i got lucky though because the power on hours on all 00:16:15.839 --> 00:16:22.240 the drives are only about 18 months and the you like mechanical hard drives you 00:16:20.720 --> 00:16:26.160 can set your watch by their design at least enterprise grade they're designed 00:16:23.920 --> 00:16:30.160 to last five years anything beyond five years you are on borrowed time and and 00:16:28.639 --> 00:16:33.519 that that comes from a decade of experience and uh 00:16:32.160 --> 00:16:37.519 the the drives that we've got they're only two terabytes there's like 100 of 00:16:35.279 --> 00:16:42.560 them but uh but the time to replicate them is really 00:16:40.480 --> 00:16:46.639 really quick like those drives have a have a streaming performance or just you 00:16:44.480 --> 00:16:50.240 know transfer rate of like 150 megabytes per second 100 450 at the 00:16:48.639 --> 00:16:56.000 fastest part of the disc so re-imaging two terabytes not a big 00:16:52.399 --> 00:16:58.480 deal re-imaging 14 terabytes at say 200 00:16:56.000 --> 00:17:03.120 megabytes yeah 7210 maybe yeah i mean that's going to take like 00:17:00.399 --> 00:17:07.760 days i mean not to mention you look at what western digital is doing for their 00:17:04.799 --> 00:17:12.240 12 and 14 terabyte disks so their 12 is going to be a 00:17:09.520 --> 00:17:17.520 standard um perpendicular magnetic recording but their 14 terabyte is only 00:17:14.400 --> 00:17:18.799 going to be available in shingled 00:17:17.520 --> 00:17:21.280 yeah the rewrites on that aren't going to be fun 00:17:21.679 --> 00:17:27.919 i guess it's good for archives but yep which is about it which is exactly what 00:17:26.160 --> 00:17:31.440 we plan to be using stuff like that for but um 00:17:29.840 --> 00:17:36.640 yeah it's going to be uh it's gonna be a very interesting next next few years i mean uh look uh 00:17:34.559 --> 00:17:40.080 walking around in seagate's booth at ces i don't know if you were were you down 00:17:37.679 --> 00:17:44.480 at ces or no no no i skipped ces i'm hoping to make it to computex but uh you 00:17:42.160 --> 00:17:48.240 know it's only 125 000 subs i've gotta i gotta spend a couple of years growing my 00:17:46.000 --> 00:17:50.960 subscribers or whatever well we'll try to throw a few your day 00:17:49.919 --> 00:17:59.640 wait today thanks appreciate it i'm learning the lingo learning the 00:17:54.240 --> 00:17:59.640 vernacular as it were subs yeah 00:18:01.200 --> 00:18:06.640 all right so um next topic of the day i don't know if you i don't know if you 00:18:05.360 --> 00:18:13.039 looked at the video i'm sure you didn't because you would have already known the answer to this um we did a video 00:18:11.039 --> 00:18:17.440 yesterday i think it was yesterday yeah yesterday called does a thousand dollar 00:18:15.520 --> 00:18:20.640 Windows perform better 00:18:18.799 --> 00:18:26.400 where we took a server version of Windows and basically you 00:18:23.280 --> 00:18:29.600 know ran your typical desktop benchmarks 00:18:26.400 --> 00:18:32.960 against good old-fashioned Windows 10 00:18:29.600 --> 00:18:36.080 and the comments on this video are just 00:18:32.960 --> 00:18:37.919 just poisonous um so so this guy says 00:18:36.080 --> 00:18:42.320 wow the ignorance in this video is tremendous no one is actually paying the 00:18:40.240 --> 00:18:46.400 server edition of Windows for performance they are paying that big 00:18:44.160 --> 00:18:52.400 buck for its features uh i really thought that Linus would research first 00:18:48.080 --> 00:18:53.760 before making these kinds of videos 00:18:52.400 --> 00:18:58.960 so tell me something wendell you've known me for about four years now actually i think 00:18:57.120 --> 00:19:03.600 you've known me for about four years do you think that i expected 00:19:01.600 --> 00:19:06.000 the server version of Windows to perform dramatically different from the desktop 00:19:05.200 --> 00:19:10.880 one yeah probably not do 00:19:08.240 --> 00:19:16.559 you think there is a case to be made for making a video because perhaps somebody 00:19:13.440 --> 00:19:18.559 else other than the host might not know 00:19:16.559 --> 00:19:22.480 this yeah that that could come out i could 00:19:20.480 --> 00:19:26.720 see that maybe i could see that as it relates to the 00:19:24.480 --> 00:19:32.320 game mode the upcoming game mode for Windows honestly because if you look at 00:19:30.080 --> 00:19:36.080 like um the host processes and the default loadout on like which services 00:19:34.320 --> 00:19:39.440 are enabled and what server is doing and blah blah blah yeah especially 00:19:37.600 --> 00:19:43.760 especially if you start with like core os and you just enable the desktop 00:19:41.679 --> 00:19:47.840 experience and that's all you've got uh depending on what you're doing that 00:19:45.760 --> 00:19:51.120 can actually be faster if you can do whatever you're doing without the 00:19:49.120 --> 00:19:54.880 desktop experience then that would even be better but for 00:19:53.600 --> 00:20:00.000 desktop workloads you're probably going to need the desktop experience you probably will um 00:19:58.080 --> 00:20:04.240 and honestly the the most frustrating thing about this is that like the very 00:20:01.840 --> 00:20:08.880 beginning of the video i even point out old forum threads from back in the vista 00:20:06.400 --> 00:20:12.559 days of people asking does vista ultimate perform better 00:20:10.640 --> 00:20:16.480 oh actually i think that was true i think that not vista ultimate but i 00:20:14.240 --> 00:20:21.440 think that like server 08 actually did perform better than vista because vista 00:20:17.840 --> 00:20:24.160 was just a huge steaming pile of trash 00:20:21.440 --> 00:20:28.000 i ran vista for a long time maybe you just didn't have the horses 00:20:26.960 --> 00:20:33.200 that's right that might be true i mean it's possible i mean i wasn't trying to 00:20:31.360 --> 00:20:36.159 run vista on a on a netbook either though so that i mean that was painful 00:20:35.200 --> 00:20:39.600 you remember that when they were shipping netbooks with vista 00:20:38.480 --> 00:20:45.600 oh yeah i tried to use one once i was just like this is ridiculous 00:20:44.000 --> 00:20:50.640 um so let's talk a little bit about Windows 10 game mode because i've actually got like i'm sure you have the 00:20:48.880 --> 00:20:53.039 same video in the in the works so it's going to be the race to who can make it 00:20:52.000 --> 00:20:58.480 first but Windows 10 game mode versus those 00:20:56.000 --> 00:21:03.919 Windows 10 d bloatify scripts that you can run versus stock Windows 10 out of 00:21:01.919 --> 00:21:07.840 the box how interesting of a video is that going to be 00:21:06.240 --> 00:21:12.559 you know in the preliminary testing that we've done there's not like the the game 00:21:10.080 --> 00:21:17.200 mode the the build we played with was the very first version that enabled game 00:21:14.799 --> 00:21:20.960 mode and honestly i couldn't really tell that it did a whole lot other than it 00:21:18.559 --> 00:21:23.600 disabled search indexer while you're while the game was running which 00:21:22.640 --> 00:21:28.400 okay and uh there was something else that it did it 00:21:26.480 --> 00:21:33.760 did something with the dvr the xbox live dvr sure and and that was and it's like 00:21:31.120 --> 00:21:37.919 okay i mean sure the the blow script that we have mostly disables the 00:21:35.120 --> 00:21:42.640 telemetry and all that crap so do any of these things fix the start 00:21:40.080 --> 00:21:46.159 menu yet no you mean when the start menu just 00:21:44.000 --> 00:21:51.360 randomly doesn't respond sometimes yeah yeah no isn't that baffling yeah it 00:21:49.039 --> 00:21:56.080 really is i'll give you one better uh Windows 10 the the builds that we that 00:21:53.440 --> 00:22:00.240 we use in the like for business stuff uh randomly after like three or four 00:21:57.919 --> 00:22:02.960 days it's just stops being responsive you have to restart the whole machine 00:22:01.440 --> 00:22:05.919 eventually explorer will crash for no apparent reason 00:22:04.720 --> 00:22:09.840 really did you try turning it off and turning it back on again did that fix it that 00:22:08.559 --> 00:22:15.440 does fix it oh good well i mean yeah i'm talking to the 00:22:13.520 --> 00:22:19.039 level one text guy right so i got to throw these jokes in here 00:22:20.799 --> 00:22:26.240 so in a nutshell oh for uh for those of you who aren't familiar 00:22:24.640 --> 00:22:30.000 with game mode uh we've got an article here from rs technica that we got all of 00:22:28.240 --> 00:22:34.720 our information from because we don't do any actual research but the idea behind 00:22:32.400 --> 00:22:39.360 it is improved resource allocation gives a boost to frame rates and in a nutshell 00:22:37.440 --> 00:22:43.600 um they're saying that when game mode is active the os will lean towards 00:22:41.520 --> 00:22:47.200 allocating CPU and GPU resources to the game i don't know what else it would be 00:22:44.720 --> 00:22:50.480 allocating GPU resources to but who knows for games that are CPU or GPU 00:22:49.520 --> 00:22:56.240 bound um kevin gamel partner group program 00:22:53.679 --> 00:22:59.840 manager for the xbox platform said that they were seeing frame rate improvements 00:22:57.760 --> 00:23:02.400 of two to five percent i mean 00:23:00.960 --> 00:23:08.159 the thing about frame rate improvements from two to five percent is that it's one of those things where it sounds kind 00:23:05.520 --> 00:23:13.360 of good on paper but in practice a two percent frame rate improvement is what 00:23:10.960 --> 00:23:17.440 at 60 FPS yeah not enough is that the difference 00:23:15.200 --> 00:23:20.240 between like the hardware that you had now you're like really getting the most 00:23:18.880 --> 00:23:25.760 out of it and uh a terrible gaming experience 00:23:24.159 --> 00:23:31.520 i don't based on the testing that we've done i don't think we're gonna do a video on this but here's something that 00:23:29.280 --> 00:23:35.360 you could try for for yours in task manager as a control 00:23:33.440 --> 00:23:39.919 just right click on the game process and set it to an elevated priority not real 00:23:37.919 --> 00:23:42.400 time not high just the the one that's above normal 00:23:41.200 --> 00:23:47.120 and um i bet that will result in a two to five 00:23:44.400 --> 00:23:50.120 percent performance increase hmm 00:23:50.640 --> 00:23:56.400 just elevating the process i mean there's uh 00:23:54.320 --> 00:24:00.480 that was one of the fixes from rockstar when gta 5 first came out 00:23:58.559 --> 00:24:03.280 um for like middle of the road i5 systems they were like everything is 00:24:01.600 --> 00:24:07.200 fine but sometimes it goes glitchy and weird literally the the thing from 00:24:05.440 --> 00:24:10.960 rockstar was uh right click on the thing and set it to 00:24:09.440 --> 00:24:14.640 above normal and people were like oh my god that fixed it 00:24:12.559 --> 00:24:17.679 so and it might be the Windows is doing you know like the search index or 00:24:15.760 --> 00:24:22.240 in the background or whatever the malware service is executable is the 00:24:19.840 --> 00:24:25.360 one that keeps killing my like my my razor blade will be sitting on a 00:24:23.919 --> 00:24:29.200 table like 10 feet away from me and it'll start 00:24:27.120 --> 00:24:33.840 going i go over there i'm like what do you 00:24:30.240 --> 00:24:35.760 mean 18 CPU usage there's nothing open 00:24:33.840 --> 00:24:39.440 it's doing a background scan because that's what you need right yeah i need 00:24:37.679 --> 00:24:43.600 that when i'm running on battery thank you thank you 00:24:42.400 --> 00:24:47.760 um so anyway game mode in case you do care 00:24:46.400 --> 00:24:51.120 about it will work for both traditional win 32 games and new universal Windows 00:24:50.080 --> 00:24:55.279 platform games um the creators update will ship 00:24:53.679 --> 00:24:58.880 with a periodically updated white list of known games for automatically 00:24:56.720 --> 00:25:03.760 enabling game mode so that's cool i guess 00:25:01.679 --> 00:25:06.640 whitelist for increasing the priority like i can do that with a powershell 00:25:05.279 --> 00:25:10.799 script done 00:25:08.559 --> 00:25:13.760 anyway back to back to making videos that we already know the answer to i 00:25:12.480 --> 00:25:18.159 think probably i think this is one of my biggest 00:25:15.520 --> 00:25:22.559 frustrations as a content creator because we actually did one quite a 00:25:20.559 --> 00:25:28.480 while back um does water cooling 00:25:25.600 --> 00:25:31.840 make your room cooler or something along those lines i can't remember exactly 00:25:30.000 --> 00:25:36.400 what we called it yeah there it is does water cooling make your room cooler and 00:25:34.640 --> 00:25:41.520 the one that drove me craziest on that one at least with the Windows versus 00:25:38.799 --> 00:25:46.480 Windows server video people were like Linus you're an idiot because 00:25:44.000 --> 00:25:50.159 of they got the right answer they they knew that like there shouldn't 00:25:48.480 --> 00:25:54.559 be much of a difference with this one 00:25:51.600 --> 00:25:59.840 half the comments are Linus you're an idiot you why would you think this and 00:25:57.600 --> 00:26:04.960 the other half of the comments are Linus you're an idiot of course it makes your 00:26:01.360 --> 00:26:06.559 room cooler how did you not know that 00:26:04.960 --> 00:26:11.840 i'm sitting here going that is why i made the video 00:26:12.080 --> 00:26:17.760 now i'm probably going to get some hate for saying this but uh yeah 00:26:16.320 --> 00:26:21.440 you know you've got your computer and your computer is drawing you know 700 00:26:19.440 --> 00:26:25.600 watts 800 watts or whatever uh that is that is functionally no 00:26:23.279 --> 00:26:30.159 different than having a space heater that is dumping 700 or 800 watts of heat 00:26:27.919 --> 00:26:32.960 into your room it's like oh the computer is like you you really want to get 00:26:31.360 --> 00:26:37.520 pedantic you can be like oh the computer is doing the work and the amount of 00:26:35.279 --> 00:26:41.360 energy that's going into doing work is not going to generate heat that is 00:26:39.679 --> 00:26:44.880 negligible yeah that's the stupidest thing i've ever heard because it's 00:26:42.880 --> 00:26:49.360 pretty obvious okay like when you have a heat sink on your CPU okay you touch the 00:26:47.200 --> 00:26:54.799 heat sink it's very hot and when you have a water cooling 00:26:50.640 --> 00:26:54.799 radiator water is inherently cold 00:26:55.039 --> 00:27:01.440 somewhere else yeah no no no no no water the water is much cooler much cooler you 00:27:00.000 --> 00:27:05.760 touch the radiator no no 00:27:03.200 --> 00:27:11.120 i mean that my friends is why when you have a laptop that's running really hot 00:27:08.320 --> 00:27:15.440 and you take it into a room you can look right out the window and 00:27:13.440 --> 00:27:18.640 bam temperature goes down global warming defeated 00:27:16.720 --> 00:27:23.520 if that's one of the things did you guys do a video on um 00:27:20.720 --> 00:27:26.640 alternative uh fluids for liquid cooling because that has come up a lot on our 00:27:25.120 --> 00:27:30.480 forums and it's just like jesus the specific heat capacity of water is 00:27:28.640 --> 00:27:34.240 really good it's hard to beat it no i haven't i mean that's one of those 00:27:31.760 --> 00:27:39.919 things where we've shied away from some of the really really nerdy enthusiast 00:27:37.120 --> 00:27:43.120 topics like that um it's something that i've been aware of for a long time i 00:27:41.919 --> 00:27:48.799 don't know how long how long have you been in the water cooling scene you're more of a like an enterprise tech guy 00:27:47.279 --> 00:27:53.520 i've never done a custom loop water cooler ever okay so 00:27:51.520 --> 00:28:00.720 um i've been in the the custom water cooler scene since about 2006 or so and 00:27:57.919 --> 00:28:05.039 back then the the popular one was an additive called water wetter that was an 00:28:03.440 --> 00:28:08.159 automotive additive so people were putting that in their in their water 00:28:06.720 --> 00:28:14.399 cooling loops and i think people were getting quite confused um in those days especially 00:28:12.559 --> 00:28:20.320 because there was a lot of a lot more even a lot more misinformation 00:28:17.200 --> 00:28:22.559 so people were putting water wetter in 00:28:20.320 --> 00:28:26.720 on the advice of friends and water wetter was supposed to be was supposed 00:28:24.960 --> 00:28:30.559 to it was advertised that it would help with cooling but i think one of its more 00:28:28.720 --> 00:28:35.120 important characteristics was actually an anti-corrosive additive that was in 00:28:32.559 --> 00:28:39.600 it so back then mixing metals uh brass copper aluminum even on the same piece 00:28:38.000 --> 00:28:43.600 was a lot more common because people were actually pulling heater cores out 00:28:41.360 --> 00:28:47.679 of um out of cars and using them as water cooling radiators 00:28:46.720 --> 00:28:52.480 yeah so uh oh okay apparently water wetter is 00:28:50.080 --> 00:28:56.240 used in uh motorcycles apparently that's that's what it's for i thought it was 00:28:53.440 --> 00:29:00.320 automotive anyway the point is that it has always been true and it continues 00:28:58.720 --> 00:29:04.240 to be true today um you know whether you're talking 00:29:02.159 --> 00:29:09.760 fesser one or whether you're talking fluid xp or whatever the case may be 00:29:07.679 --> 00:29:14.240 pretty much any fluid that you put in a water cooling loop other than mineral 00:29:12.159 --> 00:29:18.159 oil which i would strongly recommend against because it'll destroy the hell 00:29:16.000 --> 00:29:22.000 out of all of your gaskets and tubing so please don't do that unless you're 00:29:19.840 --> 00:29:27.120 putting like mineral oil or what's it called floor inert that stuff from 3m 00:29:24.720 --> 00:29:32.159 yeah yeah or floor nerd or something into your tubing whatever you use will 00:29:29.919 --> 00:29:35.600 eventually become somewhat electrically conductive because that's just the way 00:29:33.679 --> 00:29:39.600 it works all those cooler fluid xp is water-based um it just has some kind of 00:29:37.840 --> 00:29:43.039 glycol of some sort in it and then it has something else in it i can't 00:29:41.200 --> 00:29:45.919 remember but eventually it'll pick up enough metal ions that it will become 00:29:44.640 --> 00:29:50.399 conductive and the other thing is that the more you 00:29:48.480 --> 00:29:54.240 add to water the worse it will perform that's why if i'm actually building a 00:29:52.399 --> 00:29:59.679 water-cooled system that i actually intend to run for more than a couple of 00:29:56.399 --> 00:30:02.399 months as a showcase then all i run is 00:29:59.679 --> 00:30:05.600 water with a couple drops of iodine or with a chunk of silver in it that's the 00:30:04.159 --> 00:30:10.240 only thing you should use for the best performance yeah and that makes sense chemically i 00:30:08.240 --> 00:30:13.279 mean you would want to use even like the metal ions that the water picks up the 00:30:11.840 --> 00:30:18.320 water itself is going to conduct electricity because the water becomes ionized 00:30:15.919 --> 00:30:21.919 so you would i mean you probably is there any mythology around using 00:30:20.559 --> 00:30:27.520 distilled water or something like that because it seems like that would also help it be more chemically stable 00:30:25.039 --> 00:30:31.200 yeah a lot of people a lot of people want to use distilled water in their 00:30:29.919 --> 00:30:35.440 loops a lot of people say that's the best thing to use personally we don't 00:30:33.440 --> 00:30:39.039 have particularly heavy tap water around here anyway so i've always 00:30:37.279 --> 00:30:43.360 you know what's really funny okay okay we're getting we're oh we're digging up 00:30:41.039 --> 00:30:47.360 the stories now so every time 00:30:44.880 --> 00:30:52.320 in a video you've seen me pull out a jug of distilled water and pour it into a 00:30:49.679 --> 00:30:56.880 water cooling loop i am just appeasing the distilled water fanboys that's 00:30:54.640 --> 00:31:00.799 that's tap water i drank the distilled water 00:30:58.559 --> 00:31:05.360 or i found a jug somewhere like it doesn't matter 00:31:02.640 --> 00:31:09.760 it's fine i won't tell anybody if you don't yeah that's right 00:31:09.760 --> 00:31:13.279 so um so yeah there's that 00:31:13.760 --> 00:31:20.000 and twitch chat's freaking out twitch chat's freaking out yeah no i it 00:31:18.480 --> 00:31:24.880 it doesn't make a difference um you know what i do have to jump into now 00:31:23.120 --> 00:31:29.520 is our sponsor spots for the show today we have gotten through almost no topics 00:31:27.039 --> 00:31:33.600 it's amazing how long how much time you can kill just shooting the breeze 00:31:31.440 --> 00:31:37.760 so our first sponsor of the day is freshbooks freshbooks is the easy to use 00:31:36.159 --> 00:31:41.679 invoicing software that helps small businesses look professional and get 00:31:39.679 --> 00:31:47.519 paid faster though that's not to say that um like it's all about looking more 00:31:44.880 --> 00:31:52.159 professional it actually makes you more professional when you track your 00:31:49.519 --> 00:31:56.080 expenses accurately and you track your hours accurately and you send your 00:31:54.080 --> 00:31:59.760 invoices on time and you have ways for people to pay they've actually got a 00:31:58.000 --> 00:32:04.480 card reader now so they've got a way to pay through the card reader they've got a way to pay through the freshbooks 00:32:02.240 --> 00:32:09.600 platform all this stuff legitimately makes you more organized and more 00:32:07.279 --> 00:32:14.399 professional they've actually even got a feature that lets you know if your 00:32:11.440 --> 00:32:18.480 clients looked at the invoice so that eliminates the guessing games of like oh 00:32:16.720 --> 00:32:23.120 i'm sorry i didn't pay for little sally's uh you know bocce ball lesson or 00:32:21.440 --> 00:32:27.440 whatever the case may be um i didn't see the invoice but can you 00:32:25.279 --> 00:32:31.120 teach her today anyway no little sally sits out today 00:32:29.279 --> 00:32:34.159 because i know you saw the invoice you just didn't pay it or you could be 00:32:32.640 --> 00:32:37.760 merciful and you could let little sally play bocce ball 00:32:36.000 --> 00:32:42.159 does anyone do anyone in twitch chat even know what bocce ball is 00:32:40.159 --> 00:32:46.159 i don't have a clue what that is it's lawn darts but with balls 00:32:44.080 --> 00:32:49.200 oh okay so you throw a little ball and then you throw a big ball and then 00:32:47.679 --> 00:32:51.840 someone else throws a big ball and you throw your big ball whoever's closest 00:32:50.720 --> 00:32:54.880 wins it's like curling for americans where they don't 00:32:53.919 --> 00:33:00.880 have ice i think lawn darts are illegal here in the u.s lawn darts are super illegal in 00:32:58.799 --> 00:33:04.640 the u.s and in canada i've been trying to get my hands on a set for uh for a 00:33:03.039 --> 00:33:08.880 channel superfund video for quite some time they're illegal to sell illegal to 00:33:06.720 --> 00:33:13.200 buy illegal to own they're basically illegal in every 00:33:10.320 --> 00:33:16.640 possible way so i've i've been having a fair bit of difficulty getting my hands 00:33:14.720 --> 00:33:19.600 on any of that stuff uh sounds like you need to talk to a 00:33:18.000 --> 00:33:25.600 metal fabricator and they can make you some can they probably be even more badass than the originals wow yeah we 00:33:23.279 --> 00:33:29.840 could have like instead of like a nine inch long spike we could have like a 16 00:33:27.760 --> 00:33:33.200 inch long spike and they could be like they could the whole thing could be like 00:33:31.200 --> 00:33:35.840 three feet long giant lawn that's actually not a terrible i mean it's a 00:33:34.480 --> 00:33:40.480 terrible idea but it's a fun idea it's the best kind of 00:33:38.559 --> 00:33:44.240 terrible idea uh i do have one more sponsor spot 00:33:42.000 --> 00:33:48.399 vertiger you can check out vertiger's gaming chairs over at vertiger.com so 00:33:46.880 --> 00:33:51.360 the one that i'm sitting in this is the s line 00:33:49.919 --> 00:33:55.600 there you go so you got a little vertigo logo over there just takes one person to assemble the 00:33:54.159 --> 00:33:58.960 chair i'm not actually quite sure how that's a selling point i've never had 00:33:57.360 --> 00:34:02.000 enough difficulty assembling a chair that i needed someone to help me unless 00:34:00.399 --> 00:34:04.640 it was from ikea and that has nothing to do with the difficulty of assembling the 00:34:03.760 --> 00:34:08.879 chair and more to do with the documentation it glides very smoothly on 00:34:07.039 --> 00:34:12.960 any surface the tall backrest is meant for the neck shoulders and lumbar 00:34:10.720 --> 00:34:16.399 support and like the plus line which i was supposed to tell you about first 00:34:14.240 --> 00:34:19.520 apparently but the plus line is the chair that luke normally sits in as you 00:34:17.919 --> 00:34:22.720 can see there is no chair and there is no luke like the plus line you can 00:34:21.280 --> 00:34:28.399 adjust the seat to fit your height it's got an adjustable armrest which is cushioned for the ARM as opposed to 00:34:26.079 --> 00:34:31.839 cushion for your balls i suppose which is good because most people don't sit on 00:34:30.079 --> 00:34:34.800 the armrest in order to prevent stress relieve muscle strain as well as any 00:34:33.440 --> 00:34:38.960 other shoulder or wrist pain i don't know how the ARM rest affects wrist pain 00:34:36.879 --> 00:34:42.159 but okay the knob under the seat can be set in order to match your weight so you 00:34:40.879 --> 00:34:47.440 can rock and tilt with these and that actually does work quite well and the backrest can be changed from 80 degrees 00:34:45.599 --> 00:34:52.639 to 150 degrees so you can check out their gaming chairs at 00:34:49.079 --> 00:34:54.399 vertiger.com or at the link below which 00:34:52.639 --> 00:34:58.240 says video description don't copy this copy below and paste that please thank 00:34:56.240 --> 00:35:01.839 you Colton for putting that in there all right 00:35:00.160 --> 00:35:05.200 so why don't we jump into some of our other topics here what else do we got 00:35:03.760 --> 00:35:10.960 that's like interesting i don't even i don't even know this is like zoomed in it's the post ces 00:35:08.960 --> 00:35:16.960 slow season it's been slow for us too on the news i know there's like nothing i 00:35:13.760 --> 00:35:19.280 mean uh x verizon lawyer is now the 00:35:16.960 --> 00:35:23.520 chair of the fcc okay so that's that's just that's terrible um 00:35:22.079 --> 00:35:27.440 let's wait and see what evil things he does before we make fun of him okay sure 00:35:25.920 --> 00:35:31.920 in the meantime there's a link to the rs technica article that uh that that's 00:35:30.000 --> 00:35:36.640 from yeah okay oh man i 00:35:34.240 --> 00:35:41.839 yeah okay no we don't we've been cutting back on on on the the 00:35:39.119 --> 00:35:47.359 political sort of nature of the show ever since we got um sort of roasted for 00:35:45.119 --> 00:35:52.640 talking about nothing but donald trump for an entire episode 00:35:49.119 --> 00:35:55.359 of what is purportedly a tech show 00:35:52.640 --> 00:36:01.520 oh the schadenfreude for my countrymen um all right oh vivaldi ceo calls on 00:35:58.640 --> 00:36:08.240 microsoft to quote unquote do the right thing and stop aggressive edge pushing 00:36:04.800 --> 00:36:10.240 so how excited do you get 00:36:08.240 --> 00:36:14.560 when you're sitting there using Windows because i know using Windows gets all of 00:36:12.560 --> 00:36:17.200 your juices going when you're sitting there using Windows 00:36:16.320 --> 00:36:21.839 10 and you open up another browser and you 00:36:19.599 --> 00:36:26.560 get a little little pop-up little pop-up from the taskbar it's all like hey did 00:36:24.560 --> 00:36:30.160 you know that chrome is 22 percent faster than some arbitrary thing we 00:36:28.000 --> 00:36:34.400 pulled out of our butt uh edge did you know that edges did i 00:36:32.240 --> 00:36:37.760 say chrome okay yeah chrome's not faster than anything that was obviously a an 00:36:36.560 --> 00:36:41.680 error it's it's been doing that i mean maybe 00:36:39.839 --> 00:36:44.720 it's because i'm on the insider build on the Windows machines that i have to use 00:36:42.960 --> 00:36:48.400 regularly i'm i'm not sure but it's been doing that for like six months but it's 00:36:46.320 --> 00:36:53.280 not just chrome it's been doing it with a lot of things yeah uh even just like 00:36:51.599 --> 00:36:57.040 the office pop-ups and it's like oh let's get microsoft office and let's do 00:36:55.200 --> 00:37:00.720 a trial but the version of microsoft office that i have is for developers and 00:36:58.640 --> 00:37:03.920 so it's like i've got microsoft office installed some dumb ass programmer 00:37:02.720 --> 00:37:08.119 didn't take into account if you're running the developer version of office 00:37:08.560 --> 00:37:15.280 yeah um so basically it's addressing and so so this is kind 00:37:13.599 --> 00:37:19.280 of the quote so it addresses how microsoft's anti-competitive practices 00:37:17.119 --> 00:37:22.640 create problems for the user so john tells a story about how a friend of his 00:37:20.880 --> 00:37:26.800 had her pc upgraded from Windows 8 to Windows 10 with the browser being 00:37:24.400 --> 00:37:30.720 changed to edge um and again another quote instead of 00:37:28.720 --> 00:37:34.560 building a better browser microsoft is forcing its product onto people in the 00:37:32.400 --> 00:37:38.640 most unapologetic manner so i actually was planning to make a video about this 00:37:37.359 --> 00:37:42.720 um i switched to edge 00:37:40.720 --> 00:37:47.599 for edge has better battery life about two weeks because i was trying to 00:37:45.040 --> 00:37:51.680 address the abominable battery life with chrome i'm a bit of a tab monster uh 00:37:49.920 --> 00:37:54.640 this is something i'm attending regular meetings i'm working on it um i have a 00:37:53.599 --> 00:37:59.359 sponsor um so i'm a bit of a tab addict and i 00:37:57.440 --> 00:38:04.880 mean i was getting like a couple hours of battery on my laptop which is like 00:38:01.440 --> 00:38:07.119 not very good so i was like okay i heard 00:38:04.880 --> 00:38:13.440 from microsoft that edge has much better battery life i'm gonna try it 00:38:09.920 --> 00:38:16.400 it's just such a piece of garbage 00:38:13.440 --> 00:38:20.000 i mean just just fundamental stuff okay and i don't know if this will happen on 00:38:17.680 --> 00:38:26.560 every machine but on my machine it definitely does if i click a link if i 00:38:23.280 --> 00:38:27.839 click a link in an email in gmail in my 00:38:26.560 --> 00:38:33.200 browser it manages to crash not only the tab 00:38:30.240 --> 00:38:37.440 that spawns but also the tab with my gmail in it 00:38:34.960 --> 00:38:41.280 maybe like 60 of the time like if i do a middle middle click 00:38:39.359 --> 00:38:46.320 that's surprising i'm sitting here going this is this is ridiculous 00:38:43.839 --> 00:38:51.440 how can anything be this unstable and there's all kinds of just rendering 00:38:48.160 --> 00:38:52.640 issues um all kinds of crashing that i 00:38:51.440 --> 00:38:57.920 mean i don't know what browser to use anymore what are you using 00:38:55.520 --> 00:39:01.119 uh chromium chromium is a build of chrome with all the google stuff 00:38:59.200 --> 00:39:05.440 stripped out yeah yeah and actually the canary build which is like the well 00:39:03.200 --> 00:39:08.720 canary's the the like the developer build of chrome it's 00:39:07.280 --> 00:39:12.640 like chrome plus one it's like the next version there's a there's a setting that 00:39:10.720 --> 00:39:17.839 you can tweak in chrome so the non-active tabs don't get CPU and so 00:39:15.599 --> 00:39:21.599 like any kind of like a background most of its advertiser's fault honestly yeah 00:39:20.079 --> 00:39:24.560 uh because there's like all kinds of javascript stuff like that running in 00:39:23.280 --> 00:39:29.440 the background of the tabs that's what's chewing up your battery because chrome was like yeah sure let's keep going 00:39:27.599 --> 00:39:33.920 eight percent of the battery to this tab sure no problem yeah and uh animations 00:39:32.079 --> 00:39:37.760 is also the thing a lot of like when you implement animations with javascript if 00:39:35.920 --> 00:39:42.480 you don't use like request animation frame they'll just run continuously 00:39:39.839 --> 00:39:48.240 right um and so nobody knows to use request animation frame 00:39:45.200 --> 00:39:49.359 so it's bad but uh if you get the canary 00:39:48.240 --> 00:39:56.800 version there's a tweak that you can enable and it may be it's i think it's gonna be in chrome 56 55 56 i think 55's 00:39:54.640 --> 00:40:01.520 out now it's probably going to be in 56 um and when you enable that option you 00:39:59.440 --> 00:40:05.599 should have reasonable battery life again from 00:40:03.040 --> 00:40:09.200 super mega i have i too have a problem with a lot of tabs and so 00:40:08.400 --> 00:40:14.000 uh yeah yeah it's okay you can join my support group if you ever move out to 00:40:12.480 --> 00:40:17.760 the west coast this is great just one one person's 00:40:15.839 --> 00:40:22.079 complaint about chrome really struck a chord with me 00:40:19.520 --> 00:40:25.440 how is it even possible that they still do this 00:40:23.440 --> 00:40:31.040 bullcrap where the first time you launch it the the address bar is here for some 00:40:28.480 --> 00:40:35.200 reason why why 00:40:32.000 --> 00:40:37.920 it's like nobody in the microsoft ux 00:40:35.200 --> 00:40:40.160 team for edge has ever heard of muscle memory 00:40:38.960 --> 00:40:46.400 ever i think that this ui might be designed for geriatrics 00:40:45.040 --> 00:40:49.440 because i could see how this might be easy for old people 00:40:51.760 --> 00:40:57.680 you know what's really funny though is there's actually been i i'm trying to 00:40:55.440 --> 00:41:01.839 think of what the other thing that really 00:40:58.720 --> 00:41:04.319 had me thinking about that recently was 00:41:01.839 --> 00:41:07.920 uh i don't remember if it was like an iphone thing or an Android thing or a 00:41:06.319 --> 00:41:11.520 Windows thing but i was going through this a little while ago where i kind of 00:41:09.920 --> 00:41:14.960 it kind of dawned on me because i was sitting there thinking this product is a 00:41:13.119 --> 00:41:19.520 piece of garbage how could anybody like this and i went wow 00:41:16.960 --> 00:41:22.720 old people that's it 00:41:21.040 --> 00:41:27.520 and it was it was such an epiphany for me um 00:41:25.200 --> 00:41:30.800 all right so hp laptops caught fire or something i don't know it's a battery's 00:41:28.960 --> 00:41:34.800 catching fire seems feels like it's not even news at this point 00:41:32.640 --> 00:41:38.160 a certain it's entropy i mean you cram a lot of 00:41:36.560 --> 00:41:42.240 energy in a small space it can't wait to catch on fire i mean that's 00:41:40.160 --> 00:41:45.040 again back to physics no no physics is boring we don't talk 00:41:43.680 --> 00:41:51.119 about that on this show no physics no politics you keep your physics in your politics and you go you 00:41:48.720 --> 00:41:54.800 put it on level one text we can talk about it 00:41:52.640 --> 00:41:58.800 well not the politics where we we killed politics on our forum because the mods 00:41:56.880 --> 00:42:02.160 were like i'm tired and i want to go home and it's like okay we'll eliminate 00:42:00.560 --> 00:42:06.960 politics as not related to tech and they're like they're peppy and happy 00:42:04.319 --> 00:42:11.520 again it's really nice it's great uh so there's a bunch more details on 00:42:08.640 --> 00:42:15.599 the nintendo dot co dot uk website about the switch so they've got like a whole 00:42:13.440 --> 00:42:20.720 like diagram and everything game cards sold separately technical specifications 00:42:18.160 --> 00:42:24.800 all of this good stuff that nintendo has been kind of keeping to themselves for 00:42:22.880 --> 00:42:27.839 the most part up until this time actually don't know what luke is 00:42:26.400 --> 00:42:31.359 learning at the event that he's at right now but uh how excited are you about the 00:42:30.319 --> 00:42:36.560 switch not at all oh okay well that was quick 00:42:33.680 --> 00:42:41.520 uh care to clarify why so i really like like so i grew up i had 00:42:39.040 --> 00:42:45.119 a nintendo the original nintendo i had like the original original one and a 00:42:43.680 --> 00:42:50.960 super nintendo and i really like them i really love the titles zelda you know super mario bros all that 00:42:48.960 --> 00:42:54.640 i really really like that nintendo has screwed the pooch 00:42:52.720 --> 00:42:58.319 so much with community and like understanding the community and 00:42:55.839 --> 00:43:02.000 understanding who their consumer is that i just don't care anymore and it's 00:42:59.760 --> 00:43:06.240 really sad to say that like i hate to be like that because i you know like the 00:43:04.160 --> 00:43:08.880 the nes mini like the nes classic whatever the the new one is that they 00:43:07.520 --> 00:43:14.640 came out the rest of the emulator and it's probably some version of Linux and whatever uh 00:43:12.079 --> 00:43:18.319 60 bucks i might buy that but i have a real hard time supporting nintendo just 00:43:16.319 --> 00:43:22.240 because of the way like the let's plays and like the aggressive 00:43:20.000 --> 00:43:26.119 quote-unquote protection of the ip it's just it's like 00:43:26.640 --> 00:43:35.920 so i don't know yeah i um i i i share i share your 00:43:33.359 --> 00:43:40.560 frustration um i really think i i really don't 00:43:37.920 --> 00:43:43.680 i mean how do how do i put this like i've run into situations a number of 00:43:42.240 --> 00:43:47.040 times in the past where i've kind of gone you know what i'm sure i'll be fine 00:43:46.160 --> 00:43:52.800 to do x so we oh okay here's a perfect example 00:43:49.839 --> 00:43:57.119 so we use a few frames from an from an episode of south park in a video that 00:43:55.040 --> 00:44:02.160 will be coming up very soon so i actually purchased a child tracker like 00:43:59.839 --> 00:44:06.079 a gps tr child tracker so uh south park did an episode about 15 00:44:04.640 --> 00:44:09.520 years ago where all the kids get equipped with this like headgear with 00:44:07.760 --> 00:44:13.520 satellite dishes and stuff going around because all the parents are concerned 00:44:11.040 --> 00:44:17.200 they'll get they'll get kidnapped and so every once in a while i will do 00:44:15.119 --> 00:44:22.240 something like that and i'll kind of go because i i nod to the episode i go you 00:44:19.920 --> 00:44:26.640 know it's amazing how often south park calls it 15 years ago they did this 00:44:24.400 --> 00:44:31.520 episode and we use a couple a couple frames from it and here we are all this 00:44:29.280 --> 00:44:35.920 time ahead and here i am reviewing a child tracker the child tracker 9000 or 00:44:33.680 --> 00:44:39.760 whatever um so every once in a while i will do something like that where i'll 00:44:37.839 --> 00:44:43.599 go they get nothing but benefit from this technically i am on the wrong side 00:44:41.520 --> 00:44:46.960 of the law i understand that i i have i have broken their copy right 00:44:45.839 --> 00:44:51.520 here but i haven't given away any of the real 00:44:49.680 --> 00:44:55.200 meaning of the content it's not like you had the experience of watching the 00:44:52.880 --> 00:44:58.880 episode from the chunk that i used it illustrated my point incredibly well and 00:44:57.119 --> 00:45:02.880 they got nothing but praise and positive encouraging support 00:45:01.440 --> 00:45:06.960 for the wonderful program they've been producing for so long out of this few 00:45:04.880 --> 00:45:12.319 seconds of footage realistically i consider myself protected by 00:45:09.280 --> 00:45:14.880 the the human being factor someone 00:45:12.319 --> 00:45:19.839 somewhere would have to decide that it is worth the na the bad will that 00:45:17.520 --> 00:45:22.400 they're going to generate to sue me over this 00:45:21.520 --> 00:45:27.119 and i consider that a reasonable protection in a lot of cases 00:45:25.839 --> 00:45:32.560 nintendo breaks that that kind of that covenant 00:45:30.839 --> 00:45:36.000 constantly constantly where there's nothing in 00:45:34.480 --> 00:45:40.079 there's nothing in this for me other than being like a nintendo fan or like 00:45:39.280 --> 00:45:45.839 you know spreading the nintendo gospel and you get nothing but negative 00:45:44.000 --> 00:45:50.160 publicity out of going after me for this but they just do it anyway 00:45:47.920 --> 00:45:55.760 did you see what uh jim sterling what he figured out to combat nintendo it's 00:45:52.319 --> 00:45:58.000 amazing no i didn't so he was doing a 00:45:55.760 --> 00:46:02.960 review of something nintendo and he used some he used a clip that he knew would be 00:46:00.960 --> 00:46:07.359 flagged by nintendo of america just like one or two seconds and he used another 00:46:05.280 --> 00:46:11.359 clip that nintendo japan would flag and because both of them have claimed his 00:46:09.440 --> 00:46:14.359 video neither one of them get any revenue 00:46:15.119 --> 00:46:22.880 i haven't seen the video but i actually did hear about that that is fantastic 00:46:21.200 --> 00:46:26.160 that's how it's done with the master troll 00:46:27.040 --> 00:46:33.040 um let's see what else we got here oh this 00:46:30.640 --> 00:46:38.480 is pretty good microsoft hololens the microsoft admits that sales figures are 00:46:35.920 --> 00:46:43.200 in the thousands but that's all they need 00:46:41.440 --> 00:46:47.839 says the headset's commercial leads so the original article here is from the 00:46:45.720 --> 00:46:51.599 enquirer.net man i remember when that site used to be like the go-to for all 00:46:50.160 --> 00:46:55.440 of the dirt you know 5000 doesn't sound like many 00:46:53.680 --> 00:46:59.599 but if those are developers and like hardcore users that actually could be a 00:46:57.680 --> 00:47:04.000 big deal i mean assuming that let's say i mean i 00:47:02.160 --> 00:47:08.960 wouldn't be dropping what is it two thousand pounds or four thousand pounds 00:47:06.640 --> 00:47:13.200 depending on the dev only version or the enterprise model i wouldn't be dropping 00:47:11.040 --> 00:47:18.000 that kind of money on it if i wasn't either a developer looking to build an 00:47:15.119 --> 00:47:21.680 application that i expect others to use or 00:47:19.040 --> 00:47:25.520 a high-end big business user who's looking to develop something for 00:47:23.200 --> 00:47:30.720 internal use so there will be applications for it based on those kinds 00:47:28.000 --> 00:47:38.480 of sales numbers i mean i'm not as um i'm not as what is it bear or bearish 00:47:34.720 --> 00:47:40.319 bearing bearing a bull on the 00:47:38.480 --> 00:47:44.640 no bullish is good so i'm bullish i'm not bear bull or bear market 00:47:42.720 --> 00:47:47.680 i don't know the opposite of bullish i'm sorry i'm i'm looking like an idiot to 00:47:46.560 --> 00:47:52.640 twitch chat but i'm sure they already thought that anyway um 00:47:50.800 --> 00:47:55.599 all right ooh 00:47:53.920 --> 00:48:00.160 this is exciting so the original article here is from endgadget.com let's go 00:47:57.200 --> 00:48:06.800 ahead pull that up here the first ultra hd blu-ray pc drive ships next month 00:48:04.240 --> 00:48:09.280 only there's a catch and i'm sure i'm going to get some ranting from you on 00:48:08.400 --> 00:48:18.319 this you must have a kaby lake processor and 00:48:13.680 --> 00:48:22.480 Windows 10 to play your uhd 4k HDR 00:48:18.319 --> 00:48:25.760 movies off the disk 00:48:22.480 --> 00:48:29.200 so just like netflix 4k streaming we are 00:48:25.760 --> 00:48:31.599 looking at hardware drm built into your 00:48:29.200 --> 00:48:35.760 Intel CPU in order to play back the content what do you think go go away 00:48:34.559 --> 00:48:41.680 go wendell well so okay before we talk about the drm part of it 00:48:39.119 --> 00:48:46.000 there is actually a legit technical reason for that and the the legit 00:48:43.920 --> 00:48:51.200 technical reason is that kb lake has hardware acceleration not found on any 00:48:48.000 --> 00:48:53.920 other CPU that will hardware accelerate 00:48:51.200 --> 00:48:58.240 the decoding of this content because if you've got a low end kb like sku like a 00:48:56.559 --> 00:49:02.079 like a portable device an i3 something like that it's not going 00:49:00.400 --> 00:49:07.119 to perform well it's it's going to get hot and it's going to run the battery down so like if you've got you know a 00:49:05.280 --> 00:49:11.599 surface pro 4 and well surface pro 5 because kb like 00:49:10.079 --> 00:49:15.359 if well no yeah if you've got a surface pro 4 with a skylake CPU and you wanted 00:49:13.280 --> 00:49:18.960 to watch high def content uh the battery's going to be dead in an hour 00:49:16.720 --> 00:49:23.440 and it's going to be about 80 degrees c um and so okay i could see 00:49:21.599 --> 00:49:26.240 i could see some legitimacy in that this is an internal drive 00:49:25.119 --> 00:49:31.920 and so forth and a quarter inch drive yeah yeah so this is this is a little 00:49:29.599 --> 00:49:37.839 bit more about drm but how crazy is it that we've gotten to a a a point where 00:49:36.000 --> 00:49:43.280 the content manufacturers literally don't trust the computer and so like the 00:49:40.000 --> 00:49:44.800 CPU and the dvd or the the drive are 00:49:43.280 --> 00:49:47.599 going to have this secret private conversation that we're not allowed to 00:49:46.319 --> 00:49:51.520 know what it is even though it's our own hardware uh in order to be able to 00:49:49.440 --> 00:49:55.359 decode the hardware and decode the thing and send it on that just seems a little 00:49:53.440 --> 00:50:00.400 you know anti-consumer to me this just seems like the 00:49:56.839 --> 00:50:03.280 the this just basically seems like the 00:50:00.400 --> 00:50:08.960 content companies finally won the battle i mean it's it is no great secret 00:50:06.720 --> 00:50:13.440 i i think i mean okay this is maybe this is my personal opinion but i think 00:50:10.960 --> 00:50:18.240 piracy is ultimately what led to Windows being the dominant platform i think that 00:50:15.920 --> 00:50:22.640 pirated pirated content of all sorts the fact 00:50:20.400 --> 00:50:28.079 that you had this one box that could play all the music obtain all 00:50:25.680 --> 00:50:33.520 the music play and obtain all the movies play and and obtain all the games for 00:50:30.640 --> 00:50:39.040 free where it was like you could justify at a time when a computer wasn't 00:50:35.839 --> 00:50:41.280 necessary for your job or anything you 00:50:39.040 --> 00:50:46.960 wanted to do you could justify this multi thousand dollar expense because it 00:50:44.240 --> 00:50:49.440 saved you so much money on all the music and movies and games you weren't gonna 00:50:48.480 --> 00:50:56.319 buy um i believe very strongly that that's a 00:50:52.480 --> 00:50:58.480 huge part of why microsoft and Intel had 00:50:56.319 --> 00:51:05.520 their success and it looks like they have finally given in and gone okay 00:51:02.880 --> 00:51:10.720 we're turning our back on on the on the piracy and we're kind of going okay 00:51:07.599 --> 00:51:12.240 we're going to hardware drm this be utch 00:51:10.720 --> 00:51:16.880 um so there there you have it then uh that 00:51:14.960 --> 00:51:23.520 that's pretty much it i imagine at some point 00:51:18.800 --> 00:51:26.079 someone will find some way to 00:51:23.520 --> 00:51:30.559 to pull defeat it oh yeah to defeat it but um it looks like this might be a bit 00:51:28.880 --> 00:51:35.119 more difficult than it has been in the past at the very least well i you know 00:51:33.200 --> 00:51:39.119 the technical i'm honestly not really worried about how difficult it is 00:51:36.800 --> 00:51:43.440 technically but the political climate and the whole like 00:51:40.720 --> 00:51:49.119 you know legal climate of that is really really nuts i mean it's like uh 00:51:46.720 --> 00:51:52.880 manslaughter uh you broke the copy protection on a movie uh it's kind of 00:51:51.040 --> 00:51:55.680 the same things in terms of jail sentence and you know what you might be 00:51:54.319 --> 00:51:59.839 facing and stuff like that i mean how crazy is that it's nuts yeah 00:51:58.800 --> 00:52:05.040 i mean i don't know i don't know if we've got time for it but anecdotally 00:52:02.000 --> 00:52:06.640 you know i i'll confess i'm a consumer 00:52:05.040 --> 00:52:12.640 and i picked up all of the episodes of star trek the next generation on dvd the remastered ones 00:52:10.079 --> 00:52:16.720 from 35 millimeter bought them all and i transcoded them uh 00:52:15.440 --> 00:52:22.640 uh to my media server and i will tell you that 00:52:19.359 --> 00:52:24.160 i would not enjoy the content at all if 00:52:22.640 --> 00:52:28.960 i had not transcoded it to the media server i've got all the content i've got all the special features i got 00:52:26.319 --> 00:52:33.760 everything but it's like i want to watch season four episode two click and i'm 00:52:31.359 --> 00:52:37.520 watching it it is a two second operation if i if i had to deal with the 00:52:35.440 --> 00:52:40.400 of the disc i would be ready to slip my wrist after two minutes and i still 00:52:38.800 --> 00:52:44.960 wouldn't be the episode are you a plex guy yeah well i've got 00:52:42.800 --> 00:52:48.720 plex but i've also been experimenting because plex has done some weird stuff 00:52:46.559 --> 00:52:51.760 and i'm experimenting with uh my sort of own home cooked web thing but yes i love 00:52:50.559 --> 00:52:55.760 plex so we're gonna do some videos on plex cody has gotten to the point where 00:52:54.160 --> 00:52:58.640 it it will basically run as a full-fledged media server as well and 00:52:57.280 --> 00:53:02.559 you don't really need the stuff with play you don't need the subscription or the account or anything 00:53:01.200 --> 00:53:08.000 with plex either that you would need with plex so yeah plex threw a free subscription at me so 00:53:06.160 --> 00:53:11.280 i'm just using it i didn't make any videos about it or anything but like i 00:53:10.000 --> 00:53:15.760 was like okay sometimes flex is is awesome but i don't 00:53:13.440 --> 00:53:19.440 know five bucks a month it's like i've already 00:53:17.200 --> 00:53:25.599 yeah i mean i'm just frustrated because this means that all of the content even 00:53:22.000 --> 00:53:28.960 some of that i've bought at 4k HDR 00:53:25.599 --> 00:53:30.559 i am not gonna get to enjoy in 4k the 00:53:28.960 --> 00:53:36.079 good news is that all of those discs came with a regular blu-ray so i will 00:53:32.800 --> 00:53:37.280 watch that in the meantime i suppose 00:53:36.079 --> 00:53:42.480 well i've really really enjoyed the crispiness of star trek the next generation the the remastered stuff they 00:53:40.480 --> 00:53:45.520 really did a nice job with that i should watch it i actually haven't 00:53:43.920 --> 00:53:48.800 watched star trek the next generation since they were airing new episodes like 00:53:47.280 --> 00:53:53.839 as a kid sitting on the couch with my dad so that would probably be worthwhile 00:53:52.000 --> 00:53:57.839 it's just as magical i mean it's like they really they've done a really nice 00:53:55.520 --> 00:54:00.640 and it came from 35 millimeters so they rated the effects but 00:53:59.680 --> 00:54:05.520 um you know they they haven't it was not like star wars they they kept everything 00:54:04.160 --> 00:54:08.960 exactly the way that i haven't watched all of them from beginning to end but i've watched some of my favorite 00:54:08.000 --> 00:54:14.400 episodes um as i've had time and i've been really really happy with it i'm really happy 00:54:12.800 --> 00:54:18.400 with the media server do you still spend about 60 percent of the time following 00:54:16.160 --> 00:54:22.640 the episode and 40 wondering how patrick stewart still looks the same 00:54:20.880 --> 00:54:26.160 yeah he's kind of ageless you know it's really 00:54:26.160 --> 00:54:32.559 all right well on that note our admiration our mutual admiration
