WEBVTT

00:00:01.079 --> 00:00:06.440
all right what up y'all welcome to the show what up y'all yeah did you become

00:00:05.240 --> 00:00:11.360
American while you were gone with your baby yeah yeah dog I guess dog is

00:00:09.679 --> 00:00:15.719
American and gangster American and gangster yeah I'm the most gangster

00:00:13.200 --> 00:00:18.480
person ever I'm like all rapping and I was going to say have have have they

00:00:16.960 --> 00:00:24.000
seen the stormtrooper video you're obviously pretty gang you straight up killed a guy yeah yeah with Force

00:00:21.880 --> 00:00:28.400
lightning no you know the number of people who complained oh my God that it

00:00:26.119 --> 00:00:34.399
was fake because Stormtroopers don't have Force lightning did you guys see a

00:00:30.960 --> 00:00:36.800
stormtrooper rapping yeah exactly it's

00:00:34.399 --> 00:00:41.039
like let's figure out all the other things that could how about the

00:00:38.719 --> 00:00:45.360
Stormtrooper was wearing headphones well there's one thing how about the

00:00:42.680 --> 00:00:51.280
Stormtrooper didn't have a gun that he was firing wildly at

00:00:47.360 --> 00:00:53.600
nothing although I'm actually a believer

00:00:51.280 --> 00:00:57.559
in the conspiracy theory that they were instructed not to hit

00:00:55.079 --> 00:01:02.960
anything I buy that have you heard of this that sense though yeah the the the

00:01:00.960 --> 00:01:07.159
conspiracy theory is that the Stormtroopers were told not to hit

00:01:04.960 --> 00:01:11.600
anything because we already know from Obi-Wan that only Imperial Stormtroopers

00:01:09.880 --> 00:01:16.680
are this precise I actually just rewatched a new hope not special edition

00:01:14.439 --> 00:01:20.840
not remastered actually totally makes sense it totally makes sense who that

00:01:18.840 --> 00:01:25.520
blew my brain up a little bit anyway I just watched re-watched a new hope with

00:01:22.880 --> 00:01:30.640
my son and I can happily say actually I haven't watched it in probably at least

00:01:28.360 --> 00:01:35.360
eight years I I've watched it a lot of times but I haven't watched it in a long

00:01:31.960 --> 00:01:36.960
time it still holds up really yep and my

00:01:35.360 --> 00:01:40.720
2-year-old son sat through the whole thing even though it's not really that

00:01:38.680 --> 00:01:45.719
action-packed like the first movie he really sat through all the way was uh

00:01:43.200 --> 00:01:49.320
How to Train Your Dragon yeah yeah like that's a pretty exciting movie that was

00:01:48.280 --> 00:01:54.000
one of those things where it was just playing on like a local TV network and I went to my parents house and I came in

00:01:52.240 --> 00:01:56.840
like half hour late you still haven't seen it no I came in like half an hour

00:01:55.759 --> 00:02:00.880
late and I was supposed to be helping my mom cook and I like kept on dragging

00:01:59.039 --> 00:02:04.560
back to like watch to TV I was like this is really interesting this is actually a

00:02:02.280 --> 00:02:07.719
pretty good movie fantastic mov I have I have to you know what else is supposed

00:02:06.280 --> 00:02:11.080
to be really good is Guardians of the Galaxy I haven't seen it yet but I've

00:02:09.560 --> 00:02:15.519
heard glowing reviews from like everybody have not seen it up to this

00:02:13.720 --> 00:02:20.440
expect you probably would have seen it yeah just bring bring like absolute

00:02:18.200 --> 00:02:23.920
newborn into the theater I did manage to see how to train your dragon too before

00:02:22.360 --> 00:02:30.360
the the new baby come we actually didn't take my son what why it was Date Night

00:02:30.920 --> 00:02:37.760
he got wrecked well that and we could only find a 3D showing and he's two I 3D

00:02:36.160 --> 00:02:42.680
showing yeah know I wouldn't do that yeah it was just one of those things and I was like I've heard too much crap

00:02:40.879 --> 00:02:48.200
about 3D in little kids I wanted to see it in the theater

00:02:45.159 --> 00:02:51.280
so I'll watch it again when it's out for

00:02:48.200 --> 00:02:53.200
DVD or whatever that's hilarious okay

00:02:51.280 --> 00:02:57.840
when that happens then that's what'll happen um so our first topic yeah we

00:02:55.760 --> 00:03:01.959
have some topics for today the Samsung Galaxy Alpha has been announced

00:02:59.840 --> 00:03:09.040
announced it's the least exceptional thing ever as far as I can tell uh USB

00:03:06.040 --> 00:03:11.560
type c has a finalized spec which is

00:03:09.040 --> 00:03:17.040
actually really exciting a hundred times more exciting than the Samsung Galaxy

00:03:13.640 --> 00:03:18.799
Alpha uh Ubisoft is promising to cater

00:03:17.040 --> 00:03:24.840
more to PC Gamers and pay more attention to PC Gamers

00:03:20.920 --> 00:03:26.120
so excuse me sorry uh yeah I don't we've

00:03:24.840 --> 00:03:31.159
been having these problems lately was that too subtle [ __ ] there we go

00:03:28.040 --> 00:03:33.640
there uh the experience 2 survived

00:03:31.159 --> 00:03:38.159
multiple weeks under salt water which is insane we'll talk more about that thing

00:03:35.280 --> 00:03:40.720
like meters of salt water but without further

00:03:43.000 --> 00:03:48.599
Ado come on can I never get this right

00:03:47.080 --> 00:03:54.640
were there even technical difficulties when I was gone

00:03:51.000 --> 00:03:57.040
uh we might have yes there was remember

00:03:54.640 --> 00:04:01.079
the the screen sharing worked before I remember anything oh well I told you on

00:03:59.400 --> 00:04:04.959
oh that's that's right yeah yeah I'm back in the a media now it's all good

00:04:03.400 --> 00:04:11.400

um this is actually I've got to get the I'm not logged in can you never remember

00:05:36.080 --> 00:05:42.240
my login thank you that's TWiT on my

00:05:39.440 --> 00:05:45.400
computer at home um will tell me that my login information is incorrect and then

00:05:43.759 --> 00:05:48.280
if I just click login again it's like okay good

00:05:46.759 --> 00:05:52.280
job what I'm going to go on my dashboard I'm

00:05:50.479 --> 00:05:57.440
going to post this straw pull um want you guys to check this out okay so

00:05:53.800 --> 00:05:59.800
speaking of of the internet in the uh

00:05:57.440 --> 00:06:05.080
not the '90s but certainly the certainly the early 2000s does anyone but me

00:06:02.680 --> 00:06:11.199
remember the palace this is preabo Hotel okay we're

00:06:09.000 --> 00:06:15.919
talking Palace not habo hotel if you were a habo hotel kid then you were

00:06:12.840 --> 00:06:15.919
basically as cool as my

00:06:19.280 --> 00:06:24.160
sister that's STW all right so guys

00:06:22.479 --> 00:06:30.199
check that out I'm curious to see the results here that is the most hardcore

00:06:26.360 --> 00:06:32.960
spam I think I've ever seen so apparent

00:06:30.199 --> 00:06:36.960
I am like the only person in the entire universe who remembers the pal I

00:06:35.080 --> 00:06:40.199
remember the palace I don't think I ever was on it but I knew the palace oh

00:06:38.840 --> 00:06:46.520
Palace was awesome like it was okay it was It was

00:06:43.840 --> 00:06:52.960
kind of if they had figured out a monetization model for avatars they

00:06:49.599 --> 00:06:55.960
would have been you know 10 plus years

00:06:52.960 --> 00:06:57.560
ahead of in-game items yeah in terms cuz

00:06:55.960 --> 00:07:01.840
cuz the way that avatars worked in the palace was generally speaking people

00:06:59.680 --> 00:07:05.479
shared them back and forth you couldn't really just rip them off people because

00:07:03.919 --> 00:07:08.680
the way that they worked was they you know you like you built them up on your

00:07:07.360 --> 00:07:12.400
guy and it was kind of this weird thing so there were sets and then some people

00:07:10.400 --> 00:07:15.759
would be mismatched so everyone had like there was like the one chick with the

00:07:13.759 --> 00:07:19.560
skater shorts and like the one dude with the skater pants or whatever and so you

00:07:18.120 --> 00:07:23.720
could like mix and match them so they look different anyway the point is um I

00:07:22.520 --> 00:07:28.800
don't know what the point is the point is I'm old and no one remembers the things I remember so well you got that

00:07:27.400 --> 00:07:33.840
from the Space Jam thing still existing so we're just talking about old internet stuff no no I already homar Runner

00:07:32.240 --> 00:07:37.720
someone said homar runner in the chat yeah hestar Runner man there's a

00:07:36.000 --> 00:07:42.840
Wikipedia entry update apparently they released a video at some point like

00:07:39.400 --> 00:07:45.560
teasing that there's beting all the

00:07:42.840 --> 00:07:48.759
people apparently there's going to be a another Strong Bad email at some point

00:07:47.120 --> 00:07:52.240
but that was like three years ago I think and it still hasn't happened so I

00:07:50.319 --> 00:07:56.039
don't know yeah we'll see all right so speaking of things that should have

00:07:53.680 --> 00:08:01.199
happened 3 years ago and never really managed to happen uh Samsung is a

00:07:59.520 --> 00:08:06.479
finally releasing hold on I'm just going to sign out of my Forum account here

00:08:03.159 --> 00:08:08.360
Galaxy beta yeah galaxy beta no no this

00:08:06.479 --> 00:08:12.319
is pre beta this this be Alpha Dog all right

00:08:11.240 --> 00:08:19.240
the screen share here so this was originally posted by nine shadow on the

00:08:14.879 --> 00:08:21.360
Forum and it is finally a metal phone

00:08:19.240 --> 00:08:25.199
from Samsung is it called Alpha cuz it's not ready yet and it's funny because I

00:08:23.240 --> 00:08:31.440
don't think they could have made this look any more like an iPhone if they had

00:08:28.280 --> 00:08:33.800
tried what now that Android has onscreen

00:08:31.440 --> 00:08:38.640
buttons you have just one home button in the middle you got a speaker grill a

00:08:36.640 --> 00:08:44.320
front camera and like side buttons wow like I know they

00:08:42.640 --> 00:08:47.240
already weren't really that different but that's pretty close but it's pretty

00:08:46.200 --> 00:08:53.720
if their button at the bottom with circular then I know right GG but at

00:08:51.040 --> 00:08:59.440
least okay so it's got a 4.7 in display it's got a metal housing it's got their

00:08:56.320 --> 00:09:03.200
exos octacore processor so four core

00:08:59.440 --> 00:09:05.560
cores at 1.8 four cores at 1.3 it has 2

00:09:03.200 --> 00:09:10.720
gigs of RAM 32 gigs of internal storage it supports LTE Advanced which is nice

00:09:09.079 --> 00:09:15.920
but it's got a fingerprint sensor speaking of yeah really yeah 12

00:09:14.200 --> 00:09:21.760
megapixel rear camera metal building materials and it

00:09:18.399 --> 00:09:24.600
is the rumored street price for off

00:09:21.760 --> 00:09:24.600
contract is

00:09:25.519 --> 00:09:34.839
$800 now I left out a couple of key specs there that 4. 7 in screen is a

00:09:30.920 --> 00:09:36.360
1280x 720 screen and I'll be the first

00:09:34.839 --> 00:09:42.079
like I've talked about this on the show before I don't think we need Quad HD

00:09:39.240 --> 00:09:46.560
2560 x445 in screens I think it's unnecessary I think it adds to cost

00:09:44.320 --> 00:09:50.959
power consumption and reduces battery life and otherwise just generally

00:09:48.079 --> 00:09:56.120
doesn't really have any benefit but you got to at least try and

00:09:54.399 --> 00:10:03.920
there's something to say for 1080 over 720 on a phone yes yes 1080 is

00:10:00.079 --> 00:10:06.360
noticeable whereas you know 1440 maybe

00:10:03.920 --> 00:10:12.279
not that noticeable 720p is definitely lower it also only has an 1860 milliamp

00:10:10.000 --> 00:10:18.200
battery yeah I was I I noticed you skipped over that and I was like I know

00:10:14.360 --> 00:10:22.480
why cuz I'm about to lower the hate

00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:25.000
boom and no micro SD expansion I mean

00:10:22.480 --> 00:10:29.600
we're talking a flagship phone when pretty much everyone else has reversed

00:10:27.959 --> 00:10:33.640
on the whole yes we're not going to have micr SD because people should use up

00:10:31.959 --> 00:10:38.839
their entire internal storage for their music libraries that never made any

00:10:36.079 --> 00:10:44.399
sense super dumb super dumb I mean I don't I I don't necessarily agree that

00:10:41.760 --> 00:10:49.680
phone makers need to allow people to install apps on an external SD card no

00:10:47.600 --> 00:10:54.959
and there are good reasons for that SD cards are not reliable they're not fast

00:10:52.680 --> 00:10:58.279
so fine I get it have the experience or whatever that's fine but let me put my

00:10:56.600 --> 00:11:02.000
music and pictures on it I don't want to be using up my stud stupid 16 gigs of

00:11:00.480 --> 00:11:05.760
internal stage that's I ever used it for anyways exactly I just used a direct

00:11:03.880 --> 00:11:08.800
storage device play in the computer put freaking music what songs whatever on it

00:11:07.560 --> 00:11:15.279
take it out put in the phone so it's freaking awesome so this doesn't have

00:11:10.760 --> 00:11:17.760
that and just otherwise is not very

00:11:15.279 --> 00:11:26.320
impressive I mean okay it's it's less than 7 mm thick and excuse me thin oh I

00:11:23.639 --> 00:11:31.040
hate that so much are you 59 years young yeah I know right God that kills me

00:11:28.040 --> 00:11:32.839
every time like come okay I'm when

00:11:31.040 --> 00:11:40.519
you're 59 you'll understand no I'll still call myself 59 years old um or

00:11:35.160 --> 00:11:43.839
just 59 years or that 59 years of Swag

00:11:40.519 --> 00:11:45.440
Dog uh so right and it's only 115 gram

00:11:43.839 --> 00:11:51.800
so it is pretty light especially for a metal phone but I think that Samsung's

00:11:48.760 --> 00:11:54.120
marketing video really does tell us

00:11:51.800 --> 00:11:56.880
everything that we needed to know about this

00:11:55.079 --> 00:12:04.399
phone this phone has Le nothing to do with how good

00:12:01.160 --> 00:12:06.720
it is it has to do with this completely

00:12:04.399 --> 00:12:12.279
stupid way that some guy has it on his mixing console it has to do with for

00:12:09.600 --> 00:12:16.800
some reason someone like moving their hands around like this has their phone

00:12:14.639 --> 00:12:23.639
propped up at the edge of the table on its side and it has to do with storing

00:12:21.160 --> 00:12:28.360
it like that for some reason they all do

00:12:26.240 --> 00:12:34.880
that well they're showing that the side is flat I guess yes oh who cares you

00:12:31.399 --> 00:12:37.120
were not the first to do that no oh wait

00:12:34.880 --> 00:12:41.760
they're all walking with it hold on hold on the suspense oh look at look at how

00:12:39.720 --> 00:12:44.680
well it goes with that Chic little let's make sure she carries it in the

00:12:42.800 --> 00:12:47.720
dangerous position outside of the purse yeah where it might potentially fall

00:12:46.480 --> 00:12:53.000
yeah don't put a case on or anything though no of course not so pretty much

00:12:50.360 --> 00:12:55.639
this phone is targeted towards people who were never going to care about the

00:12:54.519 --> 00:13:01.480
spec anyway but the thing is that the thing

00:12:58.680 --> 00:13:04.880
that I have to respect Apple for is if you're going to make something that's a

00:13:03.639 --> 00:13:10.639
fashion accessory an iPhone is still a wicked

00:13:07.440 --> 00:13:13.000
fast phone it's still got the

00:13:10.639 --> 00:13:17.360
horses and it it I personally think it looks better than that yeah never liked

00:13:16.000 --> 00:13:21.440
the Samsung button on the bottom and it always has that wobbling issue well

00:13:19.480 --> 00:13:25.800
maybe this one doesn't maybe let's not be too down they've all had it so far

00:13:24.040 --> 00:13:29.440
but yeah you're right it might not I don't know it comes in five colors black

00:13:27.600 --> 00:13:35.040
white gold silver and blue I'm actually trying to get HTC to send me a pink 1 M8

00:13:32.279 --> 00:13:40.639
really oh I like super stoked on if I could get my

00:13:37.839 --> 00:13:45.920
hands on one of those um anyway so the only pricing we actually have is $599 so

00:13:43.360 --> 00:13:51.279
it's possible this will land at $5.99 that happens a lot where there's no

00:13:49.000 --> 00:13:55.360
currency conversion between territories I always feel bad for other places when

00:13:53.480 --> 00:14:00.279
that happens well remember they also get paid in that currency so like a

00:13:58.240 --> 00:14:06.959
competitive minimum wage is not going to be $10 an hour here and 672 an hour

00:14:04.759 --> 00:14:11.440
whatever but it isn't typically I don't know so I have no argument here in a

00:14:09.040 --> 00:14:15.959
country with a similar economy it'll be similarly equivalent in terms of the

00:14:13.240 --> 00:14:22.120
actual number on the end right um sometimes not

00:14:18.560 --> 00:14:23.759
always okay so I don't think that works

00:14:22.120 --> 00:14:27.600
for people in bad economies cuz when you're making like when when a phone

00:14:25.880 --> 00:14:33.600
cost like millions of what that's what I mean like in in similar devel

00:14:30.920 --> 00:14:38.240
okay okay so I I have a segue I have a segue for a phone that cost $800 at

00:14:36.680 --> 00:14:44.680
least they're not as bad people as one plus one oh right this is happening I

00:14:40.560 --> 00:14:52.040
forgot about this happy baby to

00:14:44.680 --> 00:14:59.040

making a human with your genitals I'm

00:15:12.880 --> 00:15:19.320
not sure what they were expecting me to make with my genitals maybe a little

00:15:17.279 --> 00:15:22.720
like uh you know like a little thing with like sunglasses and a big nose and

00:15:21.880 --> 00:15:27.399
a mustache I could I could make that oh

00:15:25.440 --> 00:15:30.440
God maybe not on this show but I don't think yeah I think we get banned off

00:15:28.560 --> 00:15:34.440

appreciate that there we go okay okay so

00:16:59.639 --> 00:17:06.319
anyway seg my my previous segue was it may cost about $800 and be somewhat

00:17:04.400 --> 00:17:14.439
useless but at least the company behind it isn't as bad as OnePlus One oh one

00:17:10.240 --> 00:17:17.839
plus what are you guys doing it's like

00:17:14.439 --> 00:17:19.880
is the plan to create as much negative

00:17:17.839 --> 00:17:24.520
publicity as possible negative publicity is still publicity I guess yeah that's

00:17:22.000 --> 00:17:30.720
true but I mean come we are talking about on so this was originally posted

00:17:27.559 --> 00:17:32.960
by Alex Goes high on The Forum and

00:17:30.720 --> 00:17:36.120
basically um it was a contest exclusively for women where it asked

00:17:34.720 --> 00:17:40.200
women to take a picture of themselves with the OnePlus logo visible on either

00:17:38.160 --> 00:17:44.360
a piece of paper or drawn somewhere on the body the 50 most well-liked ladies

00:17:42.880 --> 00:17:51.200
would get a T-shirt and a code so that they could so that they could buy a

00:17:48.600 --> 00:17:56.520
OnePlus H OnePlus dropped a ladies no nudity warning um and I believe which is

00:17:54.240 --> 00:18:02.720
just another way of saying we want you to get as unclosed as possible without

00:18:00.960 --> 00:18:06.440
it being considered new well yeah cuz if you think about it it's most liked so

00:18:04.280 --> 00:18:14.200
what do you expect to yeah and it it invites the you know the sub caverns of

00:18:10.480 --> 00:18:16.559
the internet to come in and spam do

00:18:14.200 --> 00:18:20.480
whatever whenever you host a big poll you're always going to bring in that but

00:18:18.880 --> 00:18:26.360
whenever you post a poll in this style it's going to happen way more yeah way

00:18:22.640 --> 00:18:29.240
way way more so basically it's super

00:18:26.360 --> 00:18:32.919
tasteless yeah super super super tast a lot of women came in and started um

00:18:31.360 --> 00:18:38.080
doing pictures where they would have like the OnePlus logo and then don't be

00:18:35.559 --> 00:18:41.440
sexist and then like not be wearing super revealing clothing I think that

00:18:40.039 --> 00:18:46.559
was the general idea on that yeah there was some of that by at this point

00:18:43.159 --> 00:18:49.880
Cyanogen has like denounced the whole

00:18:46.559 --> 00:18:52.039
thing sonen exactly said we value all of

00:18:49.880 --> 00:18:56.600
our users and do not support any contest that objectifies people and the contest

00:18:54.480 --> 00:19:02.159
thread has since been taken down I mean you know what it would be one thing if

00:19:00.159 --> 00:19:07.280
they were all for equality and they just said take a picture of yourself with one

00:19:05.039 --> 00:19:11.600
plus. and if people submitted you know scantily clad whatever they were going

00:19:09.120 --> 00:19:15.679
to do on their own of their own valtion if people just are like yeah you know

00:19:13.679 --> 00:19:19.559
what I'm down I want to post a picture of myself on the internet that's their

00:19:17.159 --> 00:19:23.799
right and they can do that but they specifically LED people down the path to

00:19:22.799 --> 00:19:27.919
believe that that's what they were looking exclusively for women and in the

00:19:25.840 --> 00:19:32.039
thing it says somewhere on your body somewhere on your body pie so they were

00:19:29.960 --> 00:19:35.480
specifically asking for that and then again it would be a whole other ball of

00:19:33.720 --> 00:19:41.400
wax if they were actually giving them a phone or something here's you get a

00:19:38.039 --> 00:19:41.400
chance to buy one cuz we're

00:19:41.840 --> 00:19:50.840
douchebags people keep asking me for review of this phone and

00:19:47.840 --> 00:19:53.520
honestly I just don't even want to we

00:19:50.840 --> 00:19:58.880
got close like a day or two ago yeah we were kind of maybe going to do it cuz if

00:19:55.760 --> 00:20:00.400
one fell into our lap uh and maybe then

00:19:58.880 --> 00:20:04.960
it maybe would have happened but at this point no yeah I don't think so like I

00:20:02.480 --> 00:20:08.080
just if we did half the review would be like yeah they're kind of douches with

00:20:06.480 --> 00:20:12.280
they invite only system and yeah they're kind of douches with their objectifying

00:20:09.480 --> 00:20:16.679
women thing so and breaking perfectly good phones instead of encouraging

00:20:13.880 --> 00:20:21.240
people to recycle them yeah yeah yeah but it's made well yeah I guess so and

00:20:19.760 --> 00:20:24.679
Okay Google Now support isn't there but you can patch it in and blah blah blah

00:20:23.000 --> 00:20:29.520
blah blah there's your review there's the whole review that's all you really

00:20:26.240 --> 00:20:32.240
need to know is it we should do a series

00:20:29.520 --> 00:20:35.960
all you really need to know by Luke it's just like 30 seconds long it's made well

00:20:34.640 --> 00:20:40.360
but some things are broken but you can fix most of them but they're kind of a douchebag company so it's a pretty good

00:20:38.919 --> 00:20:43.720
phone if you're okay with ignoring the company and you're okay with patching

00:20:42.039 --> 00:20:47.440
things in thanks for watching I had an idea for a segment that I wanted to

00:20:45.640 --> 00:20:52.080
start doing and now I've totally forgotten what it was not the LSD

00:20:49.320 --> 00:20:56.880
segment right no no not that one it was uh it was going to be something else

00:20:54.120 --> 00:21:02.200
shoot it was a really good idea uh oh well

00:20:59.400 --> 00:21:05.159
all right so Microsoft it happens every time so it's hardly news we're not going

00:21:03.840 --> 00:21:11.080
to spend a lot of time on it but Microsoft and Sony caught using PCS to

00:21:07.520 --> 00:21:12.600
Showcase games at gamescon not new but a

00:21:11.080 --> 00:21:17.400
continued Trend which is still worth talking about so Microsoft decided as

00:21:14.880 --> 00:21:22.720
usual to camouflage a number of PCS in order to Showcase one or even more of

00:21:19.880 --> 00:21:27.000
its titles so there was a game Crash and apparently this was running on a GeForce

00:21:24.960 --> 00:21:30.960
PC because we see a GeForce experience update down here and then of course

00:21:29.279 --> 00:21:34.880
there's an Xbox console that is obviously not doing anything I mean the

00:21:33.320 --> 00:21:39.799
thing about this is guys you got to understand this makes sense because devs

00:21:36.799 --> 00:21:42.400
I mean what you you you expect to walk

00:21:39.799 --> 00:21:48.919
into a game studio and like everyone has like monitors on their desk and like

00:21:44.640 --> 00:21:52.679
Xboxes next no the real work gets done

00:21:48.919 --> 00:21:54.480
on a PC so the real testing is going to

00:21:52.679 --> 00:22:00.440
get done on a PC you're not going to you're not going to do like a a build

00:21:57.080 --> 00:22:02.400
version of the game put it on a disc and

00:22:00.440 --> 00:22:04.559
like put it in a console every time you want to test something that's not how

00:22:03.840 --> 00:22:11.440
that works so yes especially in development

00:22:08.760 --> 00:22:15.679
games are going to be showcased on PCS yeah because they're just better I think

00:22:14.159 --> 00:22:21.039
like they they'll have consoles there CU obviously going to have to test it on the console but like the mass majority

00:22:18.520 --> 00:22:24.360
of the development like all their test builds like you were talking about will

00:22:22.440 --> 00:22:27.000
be on a PC yeah I'm not saying they're not going to have uh I'm not saying

00:22:25.520 --> 00:22:32.440
they're not going to have consoles in fact uh talking to uh Joel from metek uh

00:22:30.919 --> 00:22:35.880
the the channelizer guys with the Spectrum analysis thing they were

00:22:34.279 --> 00:22:40.000
telling me that one of the guys that they've worked with in the past was a

00:22:37.679 --> 00:22:45.240
major game development Studio that had a big problem because they had so many

00:22:42.520 --> 00:22:48.559
Xboxes that even though the wireless controller uh Works kind of like

00:22:47.000 --> 00:22:52.360
Bluetooth where it jumps channels all the time to avoid interfering with

00:22:50.000 --> 00:22:56.840
anything they had so many of them that it just created Broadband interference

00:22:54.679 --> 00:23:01.880
in 2.4 GHz so nothing else could function

00:22:58.880 --> 00:23:04.320
oh that's awesome just jumps but lands

00:23:01.880 --> 00:23:10.960
on them on each other all the time it's horrible frog with multiple thousands of

00:23:06.919 --> 00:23:12.720
people so ay and the blind Forest is the

00:23:10.960 --> 00:23:16.159
only game from Microsoft that was proven to be running on PC it is speculated

00:23:14.720 --> 00:23:20.640
that others were running on PC and then Sony was also caught showing Need for

00:23:18.000 --> 00:23:23.760
Speed on PC hon the amount of years that I've been at packs there's countless

00:23:21.960 --> 00:23:27.760
amounts of time where you get a peakin in a cabinet and you can see a console

00:23:25.480 --> 00:23:30.720
under it I mean a a PC under it countless amounts of time there's even

00:23:29.120 --> 00:23:35.559
been times where people just straight up have like a grill on the side of their

00:23:33.640 --> 00:23:40.039
their box thing that's under the TV and you can look through the no and you can

00:23:38.159 --> 00:23:44.000
look through the grill and see a computer and it's like K you're not even

00:23:42.440 --> 00:23:50.279
hiding it at all so like yeah I don't know all right

00:23:47.080 --> 00:23:55.000
speaking of uh I don't know what to call

00:23:50.279 --> 00:23:57.440
this Ubisoft pledges to take PC more

00:23:55.000 --> 00:24:02.080
seriously Ubisoft said today that it is seeking to take Windows PC gaming way

00:23:59.440 --> 00:24:09.159
more seriously as the platform continues to make gains against Rivals um you know

00:24:05.400 --> 00:24:11.279
I think as PC Gamers that headline alone

00:24:09.159 --> 00:24:16.640
is enough to kind of give me pause it's like so you're only doing this because

00:24:13.480 --> 00:24:19.679
there's a lot of us you're only doing

00:24:16.640 --> 00:24:22.720
this because in spite of everything that

00:24:19.679 --> 00:24:26.200
the entire gaming AAA gaming industry

00:24:22.720 --> 00:24:28.720
has done to alienate us it's still

00:24:26.200 --> 00:24:33.960
growing so I guess there's nothing can do so at the last possible second as the

00:24:31.480 --> 00:24:39.600
growth continues to be uncontrolled and amazing you're like oh okay um yeah

00:24:38.399 --> 00:24:45.399
guess we were on board all along guess we'll care about you cuz you have money I used to like them so basically

00:24:44.159 --> 00:24:49.159
they're saying they focus more on the needs of PC Gamers they're going to have

00:24:47.200 --> 00:24:53.640
simplified DRM activation greater commitment to multiplatform releases

00:24:51.640 --> 00:24:57.080
which is a good thing and I am happy to see if it happens if it happens

00:24:55.760 --> 00:25:02.360
seriously doubt it and the thing about a multiplatform release is that we expect

00:24:59.240 --> 00:25:04.600
to actually get a proper release not one

00:25:02.360 --> 00:25:08.080
that gets patched 3 weeks later Allah Watch Dogs and had a bunch of hidden

00:25:06.480 --> 00:25:14.000
content in it that you just like I don't even that there wasn't

00:25:10.399 --> 00:25:16.279
even a DLC plan it just was turned off

00:25:14.000 --> 00:25:20.640
turned off I mean that's a whole other thing like hey pay another 10 bucks for

00:25:18.360 --> 00:25:23.720
like the ultra extreme amazing High Fidelity version you know I think a lot

00:25:21.960 --> 00:25:28.320
of people would actually go for that they've uh there was a post I don't

00:25:25.440 --> 00:25:33.000
remember by who at all I think it was someone from bung saying that like if it

00:25:31.440 --> 00:25:39.120
it's so aggressive right now with DLC and microtransactions that we could probably sell resolutions to

00:25:35.880 --> 00:25:40.679
you and it's like oh I didn't say it was

00:25:39.120 --> 00:25:46.039
good to be clear I said that it they could probably get away with it

00:25:43.440 --> 00:25:49.240
um what are we talking about anyway so blah blah blah they'll focus more on the

00:25:47.240 --> 00:25:53.279
needs of PC Gamers greater commitment to multiplatform releases we're doing our

00:25:51.600 --> 00:25:56.799
best to bring our games to PC at the same time as the console version so

00:25:54.840 --> 00:26:01.360
Assassin's Creed unity and Far Cry 4 will come to the PC

00:25:59.360 --> 00:26:04.600
simultaneously not the the two games simultaneously but with the cons

00:26:03.080 --> 00:26:10.279
simultaneously yeah I'm most worried about the thing actually working or being optimized properly I I've said in

00:26:08.159 --> 00:26:16.039
the past when there's there's these like massive ridiculous um Assassin's Creed

00:26:13.399 --> 00:26:19.279
delays for PC I'm like it's fine if it works and then it like rarely really

00:26:18.000 --> 00:26:25.000
does and it's always like this craptastic Port but whatever all right

00:26:21.679 --> 00:26:27.559
so Ubisoft revenues from PC in spite of

00:26:25.000 --> 00:26:33.679
you know all the scrummy stuff have gone from 11 % of their total revenue to 15%

00:26:30.520 --> 00:26:35.520
so on the one hand at 11% of their total

00:26:33.679 --> 00:26:39.559
company Revenue I guess I can understand why they didn't give any cares yeah but

00:26:37.880 --> 00:26:44.679
their revenue is very split if you think about it and the thing about that too is

00:26:42.679 --> 00:26:49.360
well of course it was going to be 11% if you don't give anyone the option to buy

00:26:46.279 --> 00:26:49.360
the bloody game on the

00:26:49.720 --> 00:26:54.799
platform that happens a lot of times it's extremely delayed like some of the

00:26:53.520 --> 00:26:58.720
Assassin's Creed delays have been I think like 6 months long not super

00:26:57.279 --> 00:27:03.600
surprising if they have happened to have a console and happened to buy it for that because they wanted to play it

00:27:01.120 --> 00:27:10.279
sometime near its release at all um another thing is they're divied up into

00:27:06.039 --> 00:27:13.240
web mobile I believe um even some phone

00:27:10.279 --> 00:27:18.240
stuff all consoles including Wii and Wii U PC last gen consoles they're

00:27:15.760 --> 00:27:24.399
everywhere right so even 11% is probably still not too

00:27:20.279 --> 00:27:28.559
bad yeah all right so of course uh big

00:27:24.399 --> 00:27:31.559
news this week was uh the passing of

00:27:28.559 --> 00:27:33.840
beloved actor comedian Robin Williams um

00:27:31.559 --> 00:27:38.200
wow fans given that he was such an avid gamer in his life have asked for a wow

00:27:35.960 --> 00:27:43.960
tribute it wouldn't be the first time that Blizzard's done an NPC as a tribute

00:27:40.880 --> 00:27:47.159
to um you know a person or some kind of

00:27:43.960 --> 00:27:49.200
event so not a new thing at all and

00:27:47.159 --> 00:27:55.480
basically the only news we have right now is that blizzard is indeed listening

00:27:52.919 --> 00:28:00.440
and they did send out a tweet if I could just find the Tweet y blizzard says

00:27:58.279 --> 00:28:07.960
thanks to Robin Williams and we'll see you in game so that's that's really nice

00:28:04.880 --> 00:28:10.159
I mean I just you know I I hope that

00:28:07.960 --> 00:28:13.679
it's not so soon that it's just kind of piling on because the thing that I think

00:28:12.159 --> 00:28:19.080
a lot of people don't really think about is how the family might react to an

00:28:16.880 --> 00:28:23.200
in-game representation I mean as long as they're okay with it then that's well

00:28:21.159 --> 00:28:25.600
this is this is slightly jumping but did you did you hear about how people were

00:28:24.440 --> 00:28:30.360
treating Zelda uh no people were treating her

00:28:28.240 --> 00:28:32.919
incredibly poorly and like attacking her for not having enough pictures of her

00:28:31.880 --> 00:28:37.399
dad and all this kind of stuff on Twitter so she fairly publicly left

00:28:35.399 --> 00:28:41.320
Twitter she's like I'm installing uninstalling it from everything and I'm

00:28:39.080 --> 00:28:45.000
kind of gone for now and then Twitter's like yeah we're going to work on our

00:28:43.320 --> 00:28:50.960
harassment policies because it was like pretty bad I can't believe people to be

00:28:48.519 --> 00:28:55.360
clear Zelda is not the game Zelda is Zelda Williams Robin Williams's daughter

00:28:52.919 --> 00:29:00.480
yeah um she's what 25 I think I don't know something like that so anyway the

00:28:58.320 --> 00:29:06.840
petition to get him added to wow as an NPC has almost 11,000 signatures and uh

00:29:04.279 --> 00:29:10.320
so yeah I'll be glad to see some kind of meaningful tribute as long as it's not

00:29:08.440 --> 00:29:13.799
something that's upsetting to the family and knowing blizzard I wouldn't be too

00:29:11.880 --> 00:29:20.640
surprised if they talked to them first I made myself so sad today when we were

00:29:15.960 --> 00:29:23.000
filming um an NC PC video because at the

00:29:20.640 --> 00:29:26.519
end I was like there was kind of like a like a salesy pitchy thing at the end

00:29:24.799 --> 00:29:32.880
and I was like something something something on sale today come on down and

00:29:28.799 --> 00:29:37.120
I was like oh now I'm sad cuz that's uh

00:29:32.880 --> 00:29:39.960
an aladdin bit from the very beginning

00:29:37.120 --> 00:29:44.080
yeah yeah I just I made myself uncomfortable and

00:29:41.679 --> 00:29:48.960
sad that's no good I like this is kind of sucky that is kind of I grew up on

00:29:46.039 --> 00:29:52.480
like Mrs doubt firan I know yeah I saw all his stuff too yeah and I even used

00:29:51.080 --> 00:29:56.799
to watch like all of his comedy and everything apparently the internet

00:29:54.320 --> 00:30:01.360
absolutely exploded with uh torrent downloads of Robin Williams stuff I'm

00:29:58.720 --> 00:30:06.360
sure did um so this Tech gauge article moving along to sort of less sad but

00:30:04.559 --> 00:30:12.200
also kind of annoying uh apparently this one's been

00:30:08.640 --> 00:30:15.440
taken down but the uh the gist of it was

00:30:12.200 --> 00:30:17.600
gathered by our our you know article

00:30:15.440 --> 00:30:23.080
sleuths before the whole thing was was disappeared so ddr4 will be just as

00:30:20.200 --> 00:30:28.919
expensive as we feared it would be 60 to 70% more expensive than DDR 3 based on

00:30:26.559 --> 00:30:38.120
crucial prices which are on newegg.com as a pre-order um both the 4x8 gig 2133

00:30:33.000 --> 00:30:40.320
and 4x8 gig 2400 MHz kits are listed at

00:30:38.120 --> 00:30:45.080
$520 us wow worst D yeah that's fine uh I

00:30:43.960 --> 00:30:51.000
mean it doesn't really matter I don't think there's anything it's on Tech gauge if anyone cares y you can find it

00:30:48.360 --> 00:30:55.360
so for whatever reason 2133 and 2400 MHz are priced the same so our kits with and

00:30:52.799 --> 00:30:59.080
without heat spreaders although um that actually makes sense that's a trend that

00:30:56.799 --> 00:31:04.039
we've seen in the past because when the pricing is so high for memory the memory

00:31:01.880 --> 00:31:07.480
makers actually have some margin so they don't nickel and dime you on the heat

00:31:05.320 --> 00:31:11.760
spreader that's legitimately what happens yeah they're just like yeah

00:31:10.120 --> 00:31:17.159
whatever I because heat spreader costs like what 40 cents or something like that like they're not expensive but when

00:31:15.279 --> 00:31:23.320
we're talking like I mean I've seen module prices in in my time fall down as

00:31:19.919 --> 00:31:28.639
low as I think NC was buying Samsung

00:31:23.320 --> 00:31:31.799
sticks of DDR 1 or ddr2 for like 9

00:31:28.639 --> 00:31:33.760
$25 or something like that like we're at

00:31:31.799 --> 00:31:37.240
that price yeah 40 cents makes a difference so at lower prices it it

00:31:35.480 --> 00:31:40.919
tends to really matter and then very expensive heat spreaders will still cost

00:31:39.039 --> 00:31:44.760
money things like Dominator Platinum heat spreaders those are expensive yeah

00:31:43.120 --> 00:31:47.519
those actually cost money to make you have to pay for lights and the clear

00:31:46.120 --> 00:31:52.399
panel and all the metal and all that kind of stuff so it's kind of a big deal

00:31:50.399 --> 00:31:57.679
uh okay we just got confirmation from our potentially new employee who uh you

00:31:56.000 --> 00:32:02.080
still need to meet and kind of sign off on on but he said yes he can probably

00:31:59.519 --> 00:32:06.639
get some contract stuff done for us in the metime cuz we are in a little bit of

00:32:04.840 --> 00:32:12.000
trouble over here at lus Media Group Taran has an injury to his ARM and needs

00:32:10.039 --> 00:32:17.840
to take some time off and Brandon's going on vacation to Mexico next week so

00:32:15.159 --> 00:32:22.200
we are down two Shooters SL editors so we brought in a guy named

00:32:20.720 --> 00:32:26.120
David part-time who's a friend of Brandon's and then we are we are adding

00:32:24.240 --> 00:32:30.559
another another head because we have no idea how long Taran will be gone David I

00:32:28.880 --> 00:32:34.919
I almost just leaked the name of a video David has edited a video that um that I

00:32:33.399 --> 00:32:39.360
did very recently and it was actually pretty good so you guys will see that fairly soon oh yeah David's done work

00:32:37.320 --> 00:32:42.799
for us before yeah yeah like quite a lot I can you can like if I don't tell you

00:32:41.519 --> 00:32:48.960
which one it is you probably won't be able to figure it out yep all right so

00:32:46.200 --> 00:32:54.200
speaking of highspeed memory original poster for this is Mike TZ and then

00:32:52.000 --> 00:32:59.840
we've got a promo video which is very exciting so this is over on the Kingston

00:32:55.679 --> 00:32:59.840
hypx channel so

00:33:00.120 --> 00:33:07.399
4,620 MHz hyperx Predator memory is a

00:33:03.960 --> 00:33:10.039
thing now to be clear that world record

00:33:07.399 --> 00:33:16.039
was set with a single 4 gig stick cooled by liquid

00:33:12.639 --> 00:33:19.480
nitrogen so this memory basically

00:33:16.039 --> 00:33:21.480
doesn't actually exist in fact the uh

00:33:19.480 --> 00:33:25.840
the the kits that they are going to make out of the same you know chips and with

00:33:23.760 --> 00:33:32.080
the same binning process aren't even for sale yet but um I guess it goes to show

00:33:29.080 --> 00:33:34.279
you if you want to buy expensive memory

00:33:32.080 --> 00:33:40.840
there's probably not much in terms of compelling reasons to spend that money

00:33:36.360 --> 00:33:43.080
on ddr4 instead of highspeed DDR3 at

00:33:40.840 --> 00:33:48.880
this point that happens every time though does it happens every time we see

00:33:45.080 --> 00:33:50.960
a last harra and we see lower pricing

00:33:48.880 --> 00:33:54.240
and then we see it eventually go away and then we reach price parody and then

00:33:52.399 --> 00:33:58.360
etc etc and around the time Intel releases an actual mainstream platform

00:33:56.200 --> 00:34:02.639
so around the time we see Broadwell that's when we'll see that price parody

00:34:00.159 --> 00:34:05.919
and all that yeah but this was on a board that's specifically designed for

00:34:04.200 --> 00:34:10.760
overclocking from Gigabyte like it's totally Barren of like features and

00:34:07.919 --> 00:34:16.679
stuff it's just an overclocking board brilliant yeah uh speaking of

00:34:14.119 --> 00:34:22.639
Intel's upcoming platforms silent laptops may be coming with Broadwell so

00:34:20.480 --> 00:34:28.679
this was originally tweeted at me by aljo Mr noia okay the original article

00:34:26.399 --> 00:34:33.960
is in Spanish but Google Translate is Magic hoay and yeah hooray uh although

00:34:32.520 --> 00:34:37.639
this is not the translated version doesn't seem to be working for me now

00:34:35.520 --> 00:34:41.119
URL it can give you a translate thing yeah it's okay it doesn't matter um so

00:34:39.240 --> 00:34:47.480
basically we are going to be seeing chips that potentially require no

00:34:43.839 --> 00:34:49.599
additional cooling um Intel is doing a

00:34:47.480 --> 00:34:53.200
lot of bragging lately about their 14 nanometer process which they'll be using

00:34:51.280 --> 00:34:59.359
to manufacture these upcoming Broadwell y chips and uh the impressive gains in

00:34:57.119 --> 00:35:03.880
performance as well as power consumption that they've made over the last few

00:35:00.560 --> 00:35:06.000
years so core M will be a 14 NM chip

00:35:03.880 --> 00:35:10.280
based on Broadwell Intel claims it twice as fast as core models that were

00:35:07.480 --> 00:35:14.599
introduced in 2010 seven times better graphics performance and with power

00:35:12.119 --> 00:35:18.520
consumption that is four times smaller so that means you could achieve double

00:35:16.119 --> 00:35:21.960
the battery life with a battery that's half the capacity that's pretty Beast

00:35:20.520 --> 00:35:27.079
which is some pretty simple math but impressive nonetheless um so yeah cool

00:35:25.560 --> 00:35:30.680
we're going to see a whole new class of devices I mean imagine this this was

00:35:29.280 --> 00:35:35.320
something someone tweeted at me this week was what if you could build a

00:35:32.720 --> 00:35:40.400
shield portable that's actually just a Windows PC like if we could get

00:35:37.720 --> 00:35:43.920
something that small that has a built-in h264 decoder so you could just run Steam

00:35:42.640 --> 00:35:47.960
in home streaming that would be pretty sick

00:35:45.800 --> 00:35:51.800
actually and do a lot of other stuff you have a browser or you could have

00:35:49.280 --> 00:35:55.440
whatever right so you can even view if you want to be like a super super

00:35:53.520 --> 00:36:00.880
business loser dude you could like view PowerPoints you can do whatever I view

00:35:59.040 --> 00:36:04.640
PowerPoints sometimes PowerPoints have useful information in them I make power

00:36:03.079 --> 00:36:09.400
points so kind of shooting myself in the foot

00:36:06.839 --> 00:36:13.200
as well not that big of a deal good I hate you I very recently pinned it to my

00:36:11.680 --> 00:36:20.359
start bar so I could see recently created items speaking of upcoming Intel

00:36:15.760 --> 00:36:22.599
CPUs there is an erum or whatever you

00:36:20.359 --> 00:36:27.280
want to have I actually I've never heard that word said out

00:36:24.040 --> 00:36:31.760
loud okay well the point is that Intel

00:36:27.280 --> 00:36:35.040
has had to turn off a feature called TSX

00:36:31.760 --> 00:36:37.000
that was first announced back in 2012 so

00:36:35.040 --> 00:36:40.599
all previous processors that have this feature are going to have it turned off

00:36:38.599 --> 00:36:44.119
with an upcoming micro code update so if you update the BIOS of your motherboard

00:36:42.040 --> 00:36:47.560
for example to get better memory overclocking or some new feature or

00:36:45.640 --> 00:36:52.160
something like that improve stability by default it will disable this feature um

00:36:50.480 --> 00:36:57.800
unfortunately so that stands for transactional synchronization extensions

00:36:55.400 --> 00:37:01.839
let's just ignore that e there yeah yeah don't worry too much about the E TSX

00:36:59.839 --> 00:37:06.079
sounds much cooler as long as we don't call it TSA then yeah then no one will

00:37:04.520 --> 00:37:10.800
hate it it's not good I mean it's one of those things where for most users it's

00:37:08.599 --> 00:37:16.800
probably not that big of a deal but this was going to be really interesting in

00:37:13.160 --> 00:37:18.960
terms of multicore processor performance

00:37:16.800 --> 00:37:24.839
over the next little while and unfortunately with the upcoming sort of

00:37:21.560 --> 00:37:26.599
new Haswell whatever we're going to

00:37:24.839 --> 00:37:31.960
whatever it's ND so with the upcoming potential new platform form that could

00:37:28.079 --> 00:37:33.119
be coming sometime in the future ever

00:37:31.960 --> 00:37:37.400
well okay we all know it's coming eventually so I haven't said anything that's not it's not too bad actually

00:37:36.280 --> 00:37:41.359
yeah so we all know it's coming so anyway so it won't be there for that and

00:37:39.440 --> 00:37:47.319
even the first Broadwell y those super low power processors um will not have it

00:37:45.200 --> 00:37:52.960
fixed yet but Intel is of course working on it so there you go uh to be clear

00:37:51.040 --> 00:37:58.200
guys this kind of stuff happens all the time it happens every generation I'm not

00:37:55.680 --> 00:38:02.680
saying it's good it's super suck that a feature that has had started to gain

00:38:01.079 --> 00:38:07.839
traction I mean that's the thing is Intel or AMD or NVIDIA or whoever is

00:38:05.200 --> 00:38:14.359
going to release a feature with a product like let's say directx10

00:38:11.000 --> 00:38:16.800
compatibility and then they're going to

00:38:14.359 --> 00:38:21.599
get an install base of people who can support that feature and then software

00:38:19.440 --> 00:38:27.240
developers are going to get on board and create software that leverages it so

00:38:23.440 --> 00:38:31.400
this sets TSX back a generation and a

00:38:27.240 --> 00:38:32.440
half or so which is a bummer it is but

00:38:31.400 --> 00:38:37.599
they kind of need to go through that process because no matter how much debugging you do once you get a mass

00:38:35.839 --> 00:38:43.040
install base that's when you really see how stable your stuff is yeah but mostly

00:38:40.400 --> 00:38:51.720
Intel doesn't have this issue mostly so there you go um all right so

00:38:47.400 --> 00:38:53.839
speaking of reasons to hate Ubisoft yeah

00:38:51.720 --> 00:38:58.800
well okay sure this was originally posted on the Forum by

00:38:55.480 --> 00:39:01.119
Jers and uh he used used some pretty

00:38:58.800 --> 00:39:06.640
strong language G joners I don't know if that language belongs on the uh the the

00:39:03.800 --> 00:39:12.040
land show here let's just go ahead and keep things somewhat PG we're going to

00:39:09.800 --> 00:39:16.960
not display that on screen right now yeah sounds good do you want to handle

00:39:14.359 --> 00:39:20.520
this one sure okay so Ubisoft has confirmed the presence of

00:39:18.240 --> 00:39:25.119
microtransactions during their gamecom Gamescom presentation of Assassin's

00:39:23.000 --> 00:39:29.880
Creed Unity which will essentially allow you to FastTrack things like upgrade

00:39:28.319 --> 00:39:34.440
um do they say anything specifically what you're going to be able to Fast Track in here I don't think so yeah uh

00:39:32.760 --> 00:39:38.359
you you it's a straightforward way to pay for in-game items so essentially

00:39:36.359 --> 00:39:41.480
instead of like doing all the work in the game to get something you can just

00:39:40.079 --> 00:39:47.640
be like I want it I can't I'm I'm I'm I'm I don't know

00:39:45.359 --> 00:39:51.240
okay riddle me this because I had a thought while I was while I was looking

00:39:49.119 --> 00:39:57.720
at this article and I was I had a thought one thought was I it's not many

00:39:52.960 --> 00:39:57.720
thoughts mind you um

00:39:58.000 --> 00:40:03.000
what if how far away do you think we are from

00:40:01.760 --> 00:40:07.440
someone offering an ingame like uh like an

00:40:06.319 --> 00:40:11.280
in-game microtransaction for let's say a game

00:40:09.480 --> 00:40:15.440
like Tomb Raider okay so you go into an optional tomb I just finished Tomb

00:40:13.160 --> 00:40:19.960
Raider 20 2013 there's like five optional tomes I told you right it's

00:40:17.280 --> 00:40:24.680
like and each of them's like one puzzle it's really short it's like figure out

00:40:21.720 --> 00:40:29.839
the pulley and they're like all the same it's a pretty good game but you get

00:40:26.800 --> 00:40:32.640
to the end in be like what and I'm only

00:40:29.839 --> 00:40:37.839
like 60% complete but I think that I just have to go find relics and crap I'm

00:40:34.319 --> 00:40:39.200
not going to do that me stupid anyway um

00:40:37.839 --> 00:40:44.680
and the relics don't even have any significance I mean the audio logs are kind of cool but I already know what

00:40:43.040 --> 00:40:49.319
happened because the audio logs are just hints about what's going to happen

00:40:46.520 --> 00:40:53.440
anyway anyway anyway so how far away do you think we are from a microtransaction

00:40:51.640 --> 00:40:59.520
where you walk into the tomb you walk into the tomb and it's just like press

00:40:56.200 --> 00:41:01.599
press o to just have Lara just do the

00:40:59.520 --> 00:41:06.079
thing and press X to try to solve it yourself oh God that makes sense because

00:41:04.400 --> 00:41:11.839
they're doing that on mobile games right and is it really any different from

00:41:08.880 --> 00:41:11.839
buying a strategy

00:41:14.960 --> 00:41:20.720
guide that's pretty intense now okay the

00:41:18.680 --> 00:41:25.760
strategy guide for more CU those were like 20 bucks yep or more Yep y yep

00:41:23.800 --> 00:41:30.520
definitely not cheap the strategy guide for mowind I actually thought was pretty

00:41:27.520 --> 00:41:32.680
cool because it was written like you

00:41:30.520 --> 00:41:37.359
were kind of having a conversation sure but a microtransaction could be I know

00:41:35.000 --> 00:41:41.240
some Fair could be really well animated be like hello Luke you did a really good

00:41:39.640 --> 00:41:44.680
job to pay for me to come help you solve this puzzle can I flash my boobies for

00:41:42.960 --> 00:41:49.200
you how's your day going I can show you how to do this now um no like the reason

00:41:47.599 --> 00:41:54.480
why I liked it is you could use it to just show you where things were mm so

00:41:51.880 --> 00:41:57.599
you could like find the cave mhm and then you could just do it all on your

00:41:55.480 --> 00:42:02.760
own but it did also have these Solutions forward yes it did yes it did F there

00:42:00.119 --> 00:42:08.480
with that and you could always have like varying levels of Micron so you could

00:42:05.680 --> 00:42:16.040
have like an ultra micro transaction that just reveal a nearby optional

00:42:12.160 --> 00:42:18.960
dungeon I can't beat you you're right

00:42:16.040 --> 00:42:26.400
damn it I still like players guides more than damn it so okay and to be clear

00:42:23.359 --> 00:42:29.880
guys I'm as anti microtransactions as

00:42:26.400 --> 00:42:32.839
anyone other than buying my ship in Star

00:42:29.880 --> 00:42:37.760
Citizen I have never purchased a microtransaction no horse armor no

00:42:35.319 --> 00:42:44.040
jetpacks in Jetpack Joy Ride I earn my stuff or I don't play the game that

00:42:41.000 --> 00:42:46.040
simple but unfortunately not everyone

00:42:44.040 --> 00:42:50.760
has that kind of discipline so we have to deal with this stuff yep and you know

00:42:48.160 --> 00:42:54.520
what if I was in ubisoft's position I would do exactly the same thing and you

00:42:52.480 --> 00:42:58.520
know I'm still totally against this people want it yeah I know they're

00:42:56.240 --> 00:43:02.920
asking for it pay for it and the people who don't want it don't have to buy it

00:43:01.079 --> 00:43:08.400
yeah so it's kind of win-win it's like okay realistically are you going to not

00:43:05.640 --> 00:43:13.760
play Assassin's Creed based on this and my thing is it's a single it's a single

00:43:10.520 --> 00:43:15.200
player game right so like you can decide

00:43:13.760 --> 00:43:20.520
not to and you can decide not to the balance doesn't really matter it's a single player game one thing that does

00:43:18.520 --> 00:43:25.599
bug me is if they make things unnecessarily hard just to get people to

00:43:24.200 --> 00:43:29.240
pay the microtransaction yeah but lots of games are necessarily hard if if

00:43:27.280 --> 00:43:34.599
anything that would be a return to difficulty for PC gaming and a very

00:43:30.920 --> 00:43:35.920
positive step but bam just no not

00:43:34.599 --> 00:43:41.240
necessarily because what if it's like n impossible what if they're like oh yeah the best sword in the game is infinite

00:43:38.599 --> 00:43:46.079
money essentially or you can buy it for two

00:43:42.839 --> 00:43:46.960
bucks why do you need that item because

00:43:46.079 --> 00:43:53.920
it's the best in the game you're obviously going to desire it I don't but sure uh but like it's a

00:43:52.480 --> 00:43:58.319
lot of a lot of games are about like collecting and make yourself making yourself badass if you really think

00:43:56.839 --> 00:44:01.559
about you can beat all of Assassin's Creed with the beginner swords if you

00:43:59.920 --> 00:44:04.839
really wanted to but you want to deck yourself out with like the pistol swords

00:44:03.480 --> 00:44:09.319
and all those super badass swords that you get throughout the game one thing

00:44:07.359 --> 00:44:15.240
about um it being in Assassin's Creed that I

00:44:13.079 --> 00:44:19.720
don't necessarily mind and before people destroy me on this um I'm still totally

00:44:17.240 --> 00:44:24.400
against it but the idea the fact that it's Assassin's Creed makes it kind of

00:44:21.240 --> 00:44:27.400
hilarious because you can buy like the

00:44:24.400 --> 00:44:29.960
best sword from the store really early

00:44:27.400 --> 00:44:33.920
on especially if you don't just straight plow through the main quest if you like

00:44:32.280 --> 00:44:40.760
go and do some other things you can rack up the money to buy the best sword from the store really quickly so I don't know

00:44:39.319 --> 00:44:44.599
I've never really seen it as a problem like I have a buddy who in every game he

00:44:42.880 --> 00:44:48.160
ever plays he doesn't start the main quest right away he kind of roams around

00:44:46.200 --> 00:44:52.720
and tries to experience the game and he was able to buy the best sword from the

00:44:49.640 --> 00:44:54.800
store before he even like really started

00:44:52.720 --> 00:44:57.359
the main quest once you have free roam of course you have to unlock free roam

00:44:56.240 --> 00:45:02.640
first by going through the main quest for a while but still like I don't know

00:45:00.400 --> 00:45:07.480
items money has never really been that hard to acquire in Assassin's Creed and

00:45:05.240 --> 00:45:14.760
you've also you've always seemed to have insane amounts of it even in what was it

00:45:10.160 --> 00:45:16.040
Brotherhood or um Revelations where like

00:45:14.760 --> 00:45:21.640
you have to buy all those shops everywhere and it's kind of this insane little game you always have abundant

00:45:20.040 --> 00:45:26.359
amounts of money and buying items was never really a problem so we're going to have to tone down our Assassin's Creed

00:45:24.359 --> 00:45:32.400
discussion apparently no one cares about Assassin's Creed wasn't going to play it

00:45:28.319 --> 00:45:32.400
and don't care says 40% of our

00:45:34.599 --> 00:45:40.839
audience and then so most people don't

00:45:37.839 --> 00:45:43.200
care between wasn't going to play it and

00:45:40.839 --> 00:45:50.000
don't care and was going to play it still going to play it um that's about

00:45:46.839 --> 00:45:51.800
70% and then another 25% of you or so

00:45:50.000 --> 00:45:57.800
this B is like Mega weren't going to play it and but you're mad anyway but

00:45:54.559 --> 00:45:59.960
they didn't lose any money so air 8% of

00:45:57.800 --> 00:46:04.400
you were planning to play Assassin's Creed unity and are not going to play it

00:46:02.680 --> 00:46:10.720
now because there are microtransactions in it so basically if Ubisoft manages to

00:46:08.280 --> 00:46:16.480
increase their average sell price at the game by even 10% and that's down to 7%

00:46:14.880 --> 00:46:20.640
Now by even 10% then they missed out on nothing

00:46:19.000 --> 00:46:25.160
because you guys didn't play that might be pretty hard if you

00:46:23.079 --> 00:46:29.480
think about it if you think about how much money people spend on hats I a 10%

00:46:27.520 --> 00:46:32.920
increase in their yeah but there isn't like near infinite amount of items like

00:46:31.400 --> 00:46:37.160
there is with Hats or maybe there will be or maybe there will be lots of

00:46:34.960 --> 00:46:43.599
different stuff I don't know we'll see yeah you only need you know a few people

00:46:39.920 --> 00:46:45.119
to you know buy some crazy ship for if

00:46:43.599 --> 00:46:49.520
you spend what $6 if if if you spend $6 in terms of

00:46:48.200 --> 00:46:53.960
buying stuff with microtransactions you need 10 people for each replacement

00:46:51.599 --> 00:46:58.400
person mhm it's a fair amount that's a lot of microtransactions yeah you have

00:46:55.960 --> 00:47:02.200
to average $6 per person but then remember there's always the crazy guys

00:47:00.040 --> 00:47:05.880
that spend 100 200 bucks on like the best ship and the best I know just what

00:47:04.359 --> 00:47:10.000
I'm saying was this wasn't necessarily possible there's been microtransactions in Assassin's Creed games like that's

00:47:09.079 --> 00:47:16.440
that's another thing that I don't think people necessarily realize with this like in the previous Assassin's Creed

00:47:12.640 --> 00:47:17.960
game you could unlock the like uh the

00:47:16.440 --> 00:47:24.280
the quest finder thing or whatever which showed every single possible Quest point

00:47:21.280 --> 00:47:26.359
on the map right so you can just go to

00:47:24.280 --> 00:47:29.920
it and like every single Quest point every single rare fishing point every

00:47:28.000 --> 00:47:33.079
single treasure point every single whatever it would show it all on the map

00:47:31.160 --> 00:47:38.440
like all this kind of stuff has existed before maybe just not in this form um so

00:47:36.599 --> 00:47:43.520
I don't know but it wouldn't have been possible to spend 200 bucks before maybe

00:47:40.839 --> 00:47:47.520
it is now I don't know especially because it's FastTrack for items I could

00:47:45.760 --> 00:47:51.839
see it being a lot because if you FASTT tracked every item and if they made

00:47:50.480 --> 00:47:57.480
first somehow if they made it like a sequence of items instead of just being able to buy it directly from the store

00:47:54.559 --> 00:48:05.040
then yeah whoa all right so basically here we go

00:48:02.160 --> 00:48:09.720
um head of Xbox Phil Spencer uh comments about resolution so

00:48:08.559 --> 00:48:18.119
this is from computer andv videogames.com here we go interview etc

00:48:13.920 --> 00:48:21.559
etc etc and basically the the summary is

00:48:18.119 --> 00:48:21.559
let's just go ahead and go back to

00:48:21.920 --> 00:48:32.760
here frame rate to me is significantly more important than resolution to gaming

00:48:28.040 --> 00:48:35.599
okay okay I can I can dig that except

00:48:32.760 --> 00:48:42.440
that there's a threshold for both like if your frame rate is 23 frames per

00:48:38.960 --> 00:48:44.640
second or like you know sure let's pick

00:48:42.440 --> 00:48:48.839
on 24 frames per second because that's not good enough for games so if your

00:48:46.280 --> 00:48:54.520
frame rate is 24 frames per second and you're running at a resolution of 4K I

00:48:52.319 --> 00:48:59.440
would say yes you need to tone down your resolution you need to get that frame

00:48:55.960 --> 00:49:03.880
rate up to minimum and like hopefully a

00:48:59.440 --> 00:49:06.000
little higher if your frame rate is 45

00:49:03.880 --> 00:49:10.599
and you're running at 792p then you need to amp up that

00:49:08.720 --> 00:49:15.040
resolution maybe settle in at 40 frames per second or something like that like it's a it's a balancing game and it's

00:49:13.240 --> 00:49:21.480
going to depend on the style of game as well for a twitch combat type game yeah

00:49:19.359 --> 00:49:25.880
frame rate is going to be extremely extremely important whereas for a more

00:49:23.319 --> 00:49:30.559
cinematic or exploration Style game like Skyrim

00:49:27.400 --> 00:49:33.480
um you are going to want I know a lot of

00:49:30.559 --> 00:49:36.960
people in Skyrim that have massively sacrificed frame rate to make their game

00:49:35.559 --> 00:49:40.400
look ridiculously amazing because you can kind of do that with mods especially

00:49:39.079 --> 00:49:44.160
if you run Nexus instead of just Workshop so I don't remember where I was

00:49:42.200 --> 00:49:48.079
going with this right okay so another quote from the uh from the interview is

00:49:45.960 --> 00:49:51.960
reaching parity with our partners has been important in the end I don't want

00:49:50.000 --> 00:49:57.440
it to be about a number because 1080p isn't some mythical perfect resolution

00:49:54.960 --> 00:50:04.200
and frame rate to me is signic gepl resolution and mix of righty and

00:50:01.680 --> 00:50:08.160
freed there certain genres like racing GES hitting 1080p 60fps is important and

00:50:07.000 --> 00:50:15.599
expected but there are other genres where I'd rather use the Cycles to put more effects on screen or better

00:50:11.040 --> 00:50:18.079
lighting so basically

00:50:15.599 --> 00:50:22.680
um I I think he's interpreting the whole 1080p 60 FPS thing wrong because he's

00:50:20.799 --> 00:50:26.920
saying oh 1080p isn't some mythical perfect number I don't think anyone has

00:50:24.559 --> 00:50:31.480
ever said that 1080p is a bare minimum yes they're saying it should be at least

00:50:29.040 --> 00:50:37.680
60 FPS and at least 1080p you're reading it wrong buddy I

00:50:34.880 --> 00:50:42.160
mean yes I do understand that more graphical detail is is nice and it's

00:50:40.200 --> 00:50:45.599
cool and it's good and we've proven that it's not as hard as cranking your FPS

00:50:44.040 --> 00:50:50.559
either yeah I think the thing that is being ignored here is just the fact that

00:50:47.960 --> 00:50:54.480
the hardware is underpowered and no amount of spin doctoring is going to

00:50:52.440 --> 00:50:59.319
change that the Xbox One just isn't powerful enough and that these next gen

00:50:56.920 --> 00:51:03.440
consoles are either going to be the last ones ever or they're going to be need to

00:51:01.160 --> 00:51:08.839
be replaced in a much shorter period of time than the last gen ones um so

00:51:06.040 --> 00:51:08.839
something cool just

00:51:09.839 --> 00:51:12.839
arrived

00:51:15.480 --> 00:51:25.160
ddr4 although they sent the wrong thing so I'm not quite sure how to react to

00:51:20.400 --> 00:51:28.920
this uh this is ddr4 2800 MHz it's a 16

00:51:25.160 --> 00:51:32.359
gig 4x4 kit of

00:51:28.920 --> 00:51:36.000
vengance something um so basically

00:51:32.359 --> 00:51:37.839
that's uh pretty exciting so the pieces

00:51:36.000 --> 00:51:43.400
are all kind of arriving I mean it's no secret that there are chips out there

00:51:39.720 --> 00:51:46.359
kower posted screenshots from CPU of

00:51:43.400 --> 00:51:50.599
Haswell e chips running on at whatever settings cuz he's crazy like that and uh

00:51:49.440 --> 00:51:56.640
yeah so the hype train has started of not

00:51:54.960 --> 00:52:01.599
posting screenshots of what just happen happed yeah I don't think it's a big

00:51:58.119 --> 00:52:03.440
deal that hype train didn't start um let

00:52:01.599 --> 00:52:07.640
me just send off a quick email because that's not what we were supposed to

00:52:07.640 --> 00:52:15.400
get oh I just got a troll hangout

00:52:11.920 --> 00:52:18.400
message from Anthony from NC he's like

00:52:15.400 --> 00:52:21.559
yeah so you're getting dominators e lol

00:52:18.400 --> 00:52:21.559
cuz I was I was supposed

00:52:23.440 --> 00:52:29.680
to I don't know what to do right now this is awward you could start a new

00:52:27.520 --> 00:52:33.760
topic I don't really want to do your job it's fun hanging out in the awkward Zone

00:52:31.720 --> 00:52:37.240
in the awkward Zone yeah this is the awkward zone is that like how your

00:52:35.559 --> 00:52:43.400
relationships with girls are is it all about the awkward zone no no it's all

00:52:39.720 --> 00:52:46.920
about the like lasting too long

00:52:43.400 --> 00:52:46.920
I does it get

00:52:49.799 --> 00:52:55.079
awkward that got awkward anyways um all

00:52:53.000 --> 00:52:58.920
right this is cool this is really cool this is the kind of thing that I think

00:52:56.520 --> 00:53:06.520
everyone can sort of geek out over I hope so time lapse video this is cool a

00:53:03.680 --> 00:53:12.960
thing a very cool thing this is your typical time-lapse video

00:53:08.960 --> 00:53:16.440
footage Okay blah blah blah some dude or

00:53:12.960 --> 00:53:18.880
some lady walking around doing things

00:53:16.440 --> 00:53:23.680
okay so here's a 10x time lapse super shaky kind of hard to watch now

00:53:21.400 --> 00:53:29.160
Microsoft is working on a feature that will be an app enabled feature okay so

00:53:27.079 --> 00:53:33.760
here's video stabilization check this out

00:53:30.680 --> 00:53:36.520
hyperlapse have you not seen this yet no

00:53:33.760 --> 00:53:44.400
yeah wow wow so basically the way it works is

00:53:40.799 --> 00:53:47.000
it's creating like a like a 3D image

00:53:44.400 --> 00:53:52.119
it's creating like a 3D scene from all of the images and then navigating

00:53:49.559 --> 00:53:57.720
through that so we can just watch these there's a hyperlapse of

00:53:53.799 --> 00:53:59.520
that so amazing

00:53:57.720 --> 00:54:05.960
um I love it and then the fact that this isn't going to be you know a multi

00:54:02.760 --> 00:54:07.520
thousand plugin for Adobe Premiere or

00:54:05.960 --> 00:54:14.480
something like that is incredibly exciting because it enables all kinds of

00:54:10.599 --> 00:54:17.520
new creative things that people can do

00:54:14.480 --> 00:54:19.040
just with basic camera phones so the

00:54:17.520 --> 00:54:23.240
video is kind of blown up it's got almost two million views and so yeah I

00:54:21.640 --> 00:54:28.400
guess that's pretty much all I awesome I had I had seen this but I

00:54:26.640 --> 00:54:32.400
hadn't like I had seen like article titles but this week has been so messed

00:54:30.599 --> 00:54:38.240
up that I had no time to open the article so I hadn't actually seen the

00:54:35.319 --> 00:54:43.240
video yet that's pretty epic actually and if you saw the twitch chat during

00:54:39.960 --> 00:54:44.559
that I'll try to zoom up zoom up no not

00:54:43.240 --> 00:54:51.000
at all just yeah holy sheet oh my God whole lot

00:54:49.000 --> 00:54:54.799
of that yeah so that was kind of awesome all right so Speaking of awesome NVIDIA

00:54:53.280 --> 00:55:01.640
announces and this was originally posted on the Forum by Patrick J P something

00:54:58.200 --> 00:55:04.440
Patrick JP 93 why is this

00:55:01.640 --> 00:55:08.599
awesome it's not awesome okay there's some awesome things about it actually

00:55:06.280 --> 00:55:12.640
I'm going somewhere with this but NVIDIA basically announces that wait what the

00:55:10.960 --> 00:55:17.640
heck is this no that's not the original poster where's the top of

00:55:15.119 --> 00:55:23.960
this LOL touch screens Dang It touchcreen Go all right originally

00:55:20.480 --> 00:55:26.880
posted by why am I on the sixth page

00:55:23.960 --> 00:55:33.680
what is going on here artorius thank you so uh Jensen hang from NVIDIA their CEO

00:55:31.240 --> 00:55:40.319
believes that modern graphics cards due to their importance for gamers can

00:55:35.720 --> 00:55:43.319
continue to increase in ASP so ASP is

00:55:40.319 --> 00:55:46.319
the average sell price and Jensen goes

00:55:43.319 --> 00:55:48.000
on to explain that a number of years ago

00:55:46.319 --> 00:55:53.480
Gamers were typically willing to spend around $200 on a GPU with a graphics

00:55:51.400 --> 00:55:57.440
card and memory attached to it and nowadays is closer to they're willing to

00:55:56.319 --> 00:56:03.480
to spend $300 now the reaction to this article

00:56:01.280 --> 00:56:07.760
has actually been pretty negative because I think a lot of people's

00:56:05.480 --> 00:56:13.280
perception of this is that NVIDIA is planning on jacking up prices whereas

00:56:11.280 --> 00:56:18.440
that's not actually the way that I read it because we've had see people are

00:56:15.960 --> 00:56:24.160
investing more we've yeah we've had higher price options this entire time so

00:56:21.160 --> 00:56:29.079
here let's go way back in the day so I'm

00:56:24.160 --> 00:56:31.039
going to pick on the X8 50 XT Platinum

00:56:29.079 --> 00:56:37.079
Edition that's good with the card not that many people remember well if you

00:56:34.480 --> 00:56:42.039
were into this stuff at that time I know I'm just saying then you'd remember it

00:56:38.880 --> 00:56:44.520
so way to be a jackass I'm just trolling

00:56:42.039 --> 00:56:47.520
you so here we go from tech report

00:56:48.280 --> 00:56:58.000
H double so there it is that's what it looked like pretty b super bad check out

00:56:53.520 --> 00:57:00.240
that copper though I know that copper yo

00:56:58.000 --> 00:57:04.359
all right so here's the pricing Matrix okay so an x850 XT Platinum Edition was

00:57:03.359 --> 00:57:10.520
a $550 card so in terms of how much

00:57:07.920 --> 00:57:16.319
graphics card prices have increased in the last I mean when was this 2004 so

00:57:13.640 --> 00:57:23.799
that was 10 years ago does 10 years worth of inflation account for let's

00:57:19.400 --> 00:57:26.240
have a look at amds top-of-the line card

00:57:23.799 --> 00:57:30.359
today uh and I'm not talking about buying two of them because that was an

00:57:27.799 --> 00:57:37.799
option back then too so a Top of-the Line R9 290x is here we go

00:57:35.079 --> 00:57:41.720
$549.99 and look at all just the raw material that's increased since then too

00:57:40.000 --> 00:57:45.480
yeah I mean the actual copper is more expensive at this point not to mention

00:57:43.720 --> 00:57:50.160
how much more complicated it is to manufacture graphics cards now I'm not

00:57:47.640 --> 00:57:55.520
just going to pick on AMD here let's go ahead and find something sort of equally

00:57:53.039 --> 00:58:02.599
equally kind of over the top for its time yeah the 8800 Ultra so this was

00:57:59.680 --> 00:58:06.680
back in 2007 so we're going to pick on Guru 3DS review this time where

00:58:05.160 --> 00:58:10.920
hopefully they have the pricing on the first page no they don't so let's go on

00:58:09.200 --> 00:58:15.559
tech report okay Ultra graphics card this is

00:58:14.160 --> 00:58:21.760
what I love about these guys who've been doing it forever Scott wson man doing it

00:58:19.319 --> 00:58:27.240
for a long time and their pictures and articles are identical I know it's that

00:58:24.440 --> 00:58:31.599
consistent experience man yep where is the

00:58:28.400 --> 00:58:33.760
pricing come on Scott

00:58:31.599 --> 00:58:38.559
help the holder of graphics card performance Crown is rarely available

00:58:35.440 --> 00:58:40.400
for $88 88 at Walmart but the ultra's

00:58:38.559 --> 00:58:45.400
value proposition is something something and he doesn't actually include the

00:58:42.720 --> 00:58:49.640
price on the conclusion he says it's like $200 more but doesn't say what the

00:58:48.079 --> 00:58:57.119
price is dag nabit Scott trying to do a thing

00:58:53.559 --> 00:58:59.559
here all right it's blah blah blah it's

00:58:57.119 --> 00:59:05.280
blah blah blah it's blah blah blah here we go NVIDIA expects Ultra prices to

00:59:02.240 --> 00:59:05.280
start at roughly

00:59:07.599 --> 00:59:17.119
$829 this crap isn't new so I don't interpret I don't

00:59:14.359 --> 00:59:21.599
interpret NVIDIA's statement that they expect graphics card average selling

00:59:18.960 --> 00:59:25.599
prices to continue to increase as a statement that they plan to increase

00:59:24.160 --> 00:59:32.160
pricing because if we go and look at the 780 TI which is I'm I'm excluding the

00:59:29.240 --> 00:59:36.599
Titan Titan is not a gaming card if we go and look at the 780 Ti the highest

00:59:34.319 --> 00:59:43.119
and actual gaming graphics card from NVIDIA now is priced at

00:59:40.079 --> 00:59:45.559
$720 so there you go it hasn't really

00:59:43.119 --> 00:59:49.720
changed a whole lot people are just realizing and this is part of the whole

00:59:47.079 --> 00:59:54.359
statement people are just realizing that you know games benefit from these higher

00:59:52.599 --> 01:00:00.280
end graphics cards and you can throw like a not super amazing CPU and a super

00:59:57.280 --> 01:00:03.880
badass graphics card solution and most

01:00:00.280 --> 01:00:05.599
games will grab that and run and $300 as

01:00:03.880 --> 01:00:10.760
an average sell price isn't that bad I mean you can get a really great card for

01:00:08.000 --> 01:00:15.200
$300 and that's true on both the AMD and the NVIDIA side right now and yes some

01:00:13.720 --> 01:00:18.880
crazy guys are going to run out and buy two Titan Z's for

01:00:16.720 --> 01:00:22.480
$6,000 but that doesn't mean that you have to be a part of it and just because

01:00:20.760 --> 01:00:26.520
that product exists doesn't mean that NVIDIA ever expects people to spend

01:00:24.200 --> 01:00:30.599
$6,000 on the graphics card be super amazing at their whole marketing thing

01:00:28.400 --> 01:00:35.960
and they might uh say it's a gaming card but it's not and and the reality of it

01:00:33.160 --> 01:00:41.240
is if you made the product and someone was bananas enough to buy it would you

01:00:39.480 --> 01:00:45.799
not provide an option for them I'd be down with that I don't know whatever I

01:00:43.520 --> 01:00:51.960
mean NVIDIA within their own product lineup provides better values yes you

01:00:49.280 --> 01:00:56.839
could buy you could pick up better you could pick up three GTX

01:00:54.160 --> 01:01:02.280
780 uh 6 gig cards that would be the extreme gaming

01:01:00.000 --> 01:01:06.480
option of choice you know if you absolutely had to have the most bananas

01:01:04.480 --> 01:01:14.480
thing and that would cost you just over that would cost you around $1,700 $1,800

01:01:10.599 --> 01:01:17.400
or so less than the price of one Titan Z

01:01:14.480 --> 01:01:21.079
and would absolutely demolish at least one in terms of

01:01:19.400 --> 01:01:25.240
performance it would probably beat two given how much lower a Titan Z is

01:01:22.599 --> 01:01:29.799
clocked so yeah just because these things exist doesn't mean we have to buy

01:01:26.880 --> 01:01:33.680
them yeah yeah exactly people are like I could buy a c yes you could buy a car

01:01:31.359 --> 01:01:37.960
but we're talking about Gamers oh uh actually here's an interesting addition

01:01:35.359 --> 01:01:42.559
from Ghost uh inflation over the last 10 years has been 26% so the fact that

01:01:40.200 --> 01:01:46.200
AMD's top-of-the-line GPU cost exactly the same as their top-of-the-line GPU

01:01:44.160 --> 01:01:52.559
from back then is actually pretty darn impressive and is a reduction in

01:01:49.559 --> 01:01:54.960
price speaking of AMD AMD is hoping to

01:01:52.559 --> 01:01:58.559
put a little bit of mantle into the next open G

01:01:56.400 --> 01:02:04.200
sort of developments so they've actually provided I believe they've given the Y

01:02:01.520 --> 01:02:10.079
they've given Kronos unfettered access to mantle this was originally posted by

01:02:06.400 --> 01:02:13.720
monster Cameron and this is news coming

01:02:10.079 --> 01:02:15.079
from Richard huie AMD's gaming scientist

01:02:13.720 --> 01:02:19.480
we actually had an opportunity to interview him but interview interview

01:02:17.640 --> 01:02:23.520
him but it was while I was gone having a baby and I knew you were going to be

01:02:21.279 --> 01:02:27.599
busy so I I kind of bailed on it but yeah that's extremely exciting so AMD

01:02:25.640 --> 01:02:32.240
will impose no restrictions nor will it charge any licensing fees and they're

01:02:29.960 --> 01:02:37.440
basically just saying here this is how we do it if you want to take the same

01:02:34.440 --> 01:02:39.039
approach go ahead so to me this is

01:02:37.440 --> 01:02:45.839
basically the nail in the coffin on mantle because why would anyone support

01:02:42.559 --> 01:02:47.960
Mantle when they can just if if Kronos

01:02:45.839 --> 01:02:53.240
decides to go ahead and Implement some of Mantle's great features into openg

01:02:50.760 --> 01:02:59.720
openg is going to be the way to go because it's multiplatform I mean it's

01:02:56.079 --> 01:03:01.799
good it runs on tablets and I I I

01:02:59.720 --> 01:03:07.520
seriously don't see NVIDIA going oh we don't want to use

01:03:03.200 --> 01:03:10.319
openl like no that's no yeah so I mean

01:03:07.520 --> 01:03:15.520
mantle it was cool while it lasted yep um but and and it's just like g-sync you

01:03:13.359 --> 01:03:19.119
know it was cool while it lasted you know maybe you sold a couple graphics

01:03:17.359 --> 01:03:23.279
cards based on getting a bit better performance out of Battlefield 4 but at

01:03:21.240 --> 01:03:27.160
the end of the day if the purpose of this was to drive the industry towards

01:03:25.240 --> 01:03:32.079
creating this and if you're going to stop really getting any monetary benefit

01:03:29.319 --> 01:03:35.480
out of it at all in the future then I say great you know I'm glad that you

01:03:34.079 --> 01:03:39.000
sold a couple graphics cards in the meantime or NVIDIA I'm glad you sold a

01:03:37.319 --> 01:03:43.920
couple monitors in the meantime because someone had to invest to make this

01:03:41.599 --> 01:03:47.400
happen and I'm glad someone did it and I'm glad they got paid that's all I have

01:03:45.720 --> 01:03:53.039
to say right that's cool Twitter admits that 23

01:03:50.680 --> 01:03:57.760
million of its users of its active users are automated I don't even know if I

01:03:54.720 --> 01:03:59.920
care though I assume this yeah there's

01:03:57.760 --> 01:04:03.240
so many and they're pretty cool like uh well okay stats Canada isn't a bot but

01:04:01.839 --> 01:04:07.640
that's a pretty awesome one there's the is half lifee three out yet which just

01:04:05.079 --> 01:04:11.520
con constantly says no Uh there's Big Ben which goes like bong bong bong

01:04:09.880 --> 01:04:16.359
whenever Big Ben would go off I don't know there's there's there's a lot of bots there's even like social experiment

01:04:14.599 --> 01:04:20.440
Bots and there's yeah there's tons of stuff I don't know I wouldn't worry

01:04:18.400 --> 01:04:23.799
about it too much not exactly surprising news at all but it is kind of cool to

01:04:22.000 --> 01:04:29.960
see the exact number or the exact number figure of total

01:04:26.440 --> 01:04:31.160
Twitter users okay that's a lot yeah

01:04:29.960 --> 01:04:36.319
kind of oh this is cool the son xeria Z2

01:04:34.960 --> 01:04:40.920
lives on after being submerged in saltwater for six weeks yeah so oh okay

01:04:38.920 --> 01:04:47.200
hold on uh mango juice stain was the op for that uh that Twitter thing mango and

01:04:44.039 --> 01:04:50.720
then lar reviews was the original poster

01:04:47.200 --> 01:04:52.240
for this Sony xeria Z2 article that is

01:04:50.720 --> 01:04:58.599
amazing here do you want to run through the details of this one we have 6,400

01:04:55.400 --> 01:04:59.799
live viewers right now we do what the

01:04:58.599 --> 01:05:04.839
heck and I didn't have any time to read the doc this week that's absolutely bananas it's okay I'm was it in the

01:05:02.920 --> 01:05:09.039
ocean that's cool I thought they got like a bucket of salt water I haven't

01:05:06.559 --> 01:05:16.000
read the dock I told you I'll cover it just thr in the ocean that's so

01:05:11.920 --> 01:05:19.359
basically what happened was um the way

01:05:16.000 --> 01:05:22.359
that Sony rates the phone is for 30

01:05:19.359 --> 01:05:26.160
minutes of submersion in fresh water as

01:05:22.359 --> 01:05:28.880
deep as 5T that's it yeah that's what

01:05:26.160 --> 01:05:36.319
the IP rating for the phone says that it can handle now what happened here was

01:05:32.520 --> 01:05:39.039
that while water skiing uh Mr Alexander

01:05:36.319 --> 01:05:43.319
maxen I guess from gothenberg okay I don't know what language that is then I

01:05:40.880 --> 01:05:47.680
was assuming it was French it's not uh was water skiing and left his Sony

01:05:45.200 --> 01:05:51.880
Experia Z2 on the seat of the boat once the craft started the phone fell into

01:05:49.359 --> 01:05:58.240
the sea and was into the seabed more than 10 m deep so for our American

01:05:54.279 --> 01:06:01.039
viewers that is 30 feet deep Yad dog

01:05:58.240 --> 01:06:06.000
that is six times the rated depth and that's legit like all the gunk that's in

01:06:02.799 --> 01:06:08.839
the ocean too six weeks L and salt is a

01:06:06.000 --> 01:06:13.079
corrosion problem six weeks later a friend of his went scuba diving and

01:06:10.839 --> 01:06:17.440
retrieved it probably just for lws I don't think anyone was expecting it to

01:06:14.720 --> 01:06:20.119
work although he did try calling it and noticed that it didn't go straight to

01:06:18.640 --> 01:06:24.640
voicemail and therefore assumed it was still on but that's not

01:06:22.200 --> 01:06:28.319
necessarily the case because we've played around with the origal xeria Z

01:06:26.720 --> 01:06:32.520
and even under a couple feet of water Wireless reception is not too great so

01:06:30.240 --> 01:06:36.400
it could have been anything causing that um anyway so 6 weeks later retrieved it

01:06:34.520 --> 01:06:40.079
the back glass was shattered but probably from the fall and the battery

01:06:38.319 --> 01:06:43.880
had completely discharged probably from just sitting there for 6 weeks but the

01:06:41.760 --> 01:06:50.400
LED indicator lit up and when the phone was plugged in and recharged it worked

01:06:46.480 --> 01:06:52.160
perfectly even making phone calls beasts

01:06:50.400 --> 01:06:55.200
that's pretty cool wait from the fall so did it hit like the the boat and then

01:06:53.799 --> 01:07:01.559
fall in the water well it must it remember a metal object a metal object falling

01:06:59.640 --> 01:07:05.520
30t in the water if it's somewhat streamlined that's true can come down

01:07:03.319 --> 01:07:11.039
pretty whip through yeah okay yeah so that's probably what happened um

01:07:08.640 --> 01:07:16.039
incredible I mean the Xperia Z was a phone that I really had a hard time

01:07:13.279 --> 01:07:21.359
recommending because that TN screen was bad and on a phone where you might be

01:07:19.079 --> 01:07:24.920
looking at it from an angle all the time where it's just like oh yeah you know

01:07:23.400 --> 01:07:31.599
whatever I'm just glancing at it on the table that is a big problem whereas the

01:07:27.400 --> 01:07:34.480
Z2 IPS panel great specs great build

01:07:31.599 --> 01:07:39.680
quality what a great phone next up we have Microsoft possibly

01:07:37.279 --> 01:07:42.559
renaming Internet Explorer um apparently they've been discussing it for a long

01:07:40.839 --> 01:07:49.799
time kicking around names so that's not super surprising call it

01:07:44.680 --> 01:07:51.200
Steve or Bill Microsoft bill yeah just I

01:07:49.799 --> 01:07:57.520
know what you're referencing with that but just having like Microsoft Bill and having the icon just be money would

01:07:54.880 --> 01:08:00.640
troll so many people because of the Microsoft logo with the dollar sign is

01:07:59.520 --> 01:08:05.400
the S oh yeah justes have the Microsoft

01:08:03.160 --> 01:08:09.240
dollar sign as the S but name it bill because that makes no sense but who

01:08:06.599 --> 01:08:15.200
cares and then make the S like coded in like money texture just be like up

01:08:12.440 --> 01:08:19.000
terrible you know I think that I think it's a great idea I think they need to

01:08:16.960 --> 01:08:23.440
do it at some point but I what I think they need to do is make sure cuz

01:08:21.400 --> 01:08:27.719
Internet Explorer is not that bad right now it's had a lot of improvements it's

01:08:25.199 --> 01:08:31.799
been lot worse at times in its past but they've got to get it there yeah they've

01:08:30.480 --> 01:08:36.799
got to be cuz I mean that was what worked so well for Google they launched

01:08:33.920 --> 01:08:41.679
Chrome when Chrome was good Chrome has a lot of issues now but it still has that

01:08:39.359 --> 01:08:45.279
perception that it's really fast and really lightweight it's not lightweight

01:08:43.480 --> 01:08:50.159
at all anymore no it's not it's heavy as hell like at all so what they need to do

01:08:47.960 --> 01:08:54.920
if they're going to reimagine Internet Explorer now's a good time because

01:08:52.679 --> 01:08:59.239
everything else is kind of bloated yeah and having a lot of issues and having

01:08:57.000 --> 01:09:04.000
issues so if they were to call it not just Chrome Microsoft something else and

01:09:02.000 --> 01:09:08.679
create a new perception of the product it'll be great if they just take

01:09:06.199 --> 01:09:12.960
Internet Explorer and reskin it in a way that is undesirable and crappy and it

01:09:11.040 --> 01:09:15.480
doesn't stack up well right at the time of launch then it's going to be the

01:09:14.080 --> 01:09:23.239
whole same thing all over again apparently they briefly considered Ultron which would have been badass

01:09:18.799 --> 01:09:26.679
Ultron uh let me fire up Ultron but uh

01:09:23.239 --> 01:09:28.400
lawyer said but lawyer said no so that

01:09:26.679 --> 01:09:37.279
got that got those darn lawyers are no fun jerks absolute jerks all right

01:09:32.799 --> 01:09:41.400
speaking of jerks anyone who likes micro

01:09:37.279 --> 01:09:44.000
USB boom I said it um this is posted by

01:09:41.400 --> 01:09:50.120
good bites on the Forum the USB type-c cable and connectors are finalized and

01:09:47.880 --> 01:09:54.960
here are renders of what they'll look like so here's what receptacles will

01:09:52.400 --> 01:09:59.520
look like here's what uh plugs and cables will look like here is the most

01:09:58.239 --> 01:10:04.920
important thing about this actually there's a lot of really important stuff here so number one reversible no more

01:10:03.640 --> 01:10:11.679
putting your head around the back of your computer and trying to figure out which way it goes in yay it also it

01:10:09.719 --> 01:10:15.440
looks Slimmer although it's hard for me to say that just based on a picture the

01:10:13.560 --> 01:10:20.960
next cool stuff is it's going to support the new 10 gbit per second standard yay

01:10:19.120 --> 01:10:26.920
is this going to be super thin and fragile though no I doubt it looking

01:10:23.760 --> 01:10:28.120
micro I don't know I guess we'll see I

01:10:26.920 --> 01:10:32.199
guess we'll see it doesn't look like a locking connector which is a little bit disappointing I wouldn't have minded if

01:10:31.000 --> 01:10:39.440
there was an optional lock there may be an optional lock I don't know I haven't looked into that much but the next cool

01:10:35.560 --> 01:10:41.640
thing is up to 100 watts of power yes y

01:10:39.440 --> 01:10:44.760
that is cool so we're going to be talking about we'd actually kind of seen

01:10:43.440 --> 01:10:49.719
that a little bit on a slightly different spec but at uh CES I did a

01:10:47.360 --> 01:10:53.199
video on that that was really cool so we're going to be talking about being

01:10:50.880 --> 01:10:59.880
able to run like a multi- hard drive external enclosure off of this thing or

01:10:55.800 --> 01:11:03.480
running your monitor yeah very cool very

01:10:59.880 --> 01:11:04.400
very cool 100 watts is a lot yeah um one

01:11:03.480 --> 01:11:11.000
thing that they were trying to do with that 100 watt spec when I was at uh CES

01:11:07.280 --> 01:11:12.600
was power a screen charge a laptop and

01:11:11.000 --> 01:11:16.880
run everything else on it at the same time because it was so fast and push

01:11:14.920 --> 01:11:22.760
power pretty cool all right metal gear solid five

01:11:19.640 --> 01:11:26.679
coming to PC that's pretty exciting news

01:11:22.760 --> 01:11:28.640
um so Konami says yes that will

01:11:26.679 --> 01:11:32.120
happen I guess that's pretty much all there is to really say about this I

01:11:30.360 --> 01:11:37.320
think total biscuit actually probably put this best yeah um because the other

01:11:34.880 --> 01:11:42.360
big news in terms of you know former exclusive titles was Goat Simulator

01:11:39.560 --> 01:11:46.000
coming to consoles so there you go thank you total biscuit for summing this up so

01:11:44.080 --> 01:11:52.040
we traded Goat Simulator to consoles for Metal Gear Solid 5 on PC got out like a

01:11:48.280 --> 01:11:54.120
bandit there didn't we yes yes PC Gamers

01:11:52.040 --> 01:11:59.000
got the uh got the better that how horrible Goat Simulator is like I'm

01:11:56.639 --> 01:12:03.080
sorry but God that game is bad and like for being bad it wasn't even very good

01:12:00.840 --> 01:12:09.000
at being like funny bad it was just kind of

01:12:04.199 --> 01:12:11.679
bad I don't know oh man but we lost a

01:12:09.000 --> 01:12:18.120
multiplatform game potentially um very disappointed about

01:12:15.000 --> 01:12:19.719
this temporarily temporarily well yeah

01:12:18.120 --> 01:12:24.040
but yes I would have like to have it sooner I I finally mind you at the rate

01:12:22.239 --> 01:12:27.520
that I finish games given that I just played Tomb Raider 23

01:12:25.960 --> 01:12:31.520
this might not affect me at all you won't play it until it's

01:12:29.639 --> 01:12:35.120
released then we'll probably get it for benchmarking anyways and then you'll

01:12:32.880 --> 01:12:43.159
just play it thing so the upcoming Tomb Raider with the reimagined Lura Croft uh

01:12:38.520 --> 01:12:43.159
is going to be an XBox One exclusive at

01:12:44.400 --> 01:12:49.159
launch not a ton else to say there there's going to be a delay I believe

01:12:47.639 --> 01:12:52.560
they said after holiday season it might be coming to PC I don't remember what

01:12:50.719 --> 01:12:56.520
the exact time frame is though I don't know where we even are in the dock now

01:12:54.960 --> 01:13:01.840
um I guess I can try and find it there we go uh the game is coming holiday 2015

01:12:59.400 --> 01:13:06.480
exclusively Xbox it is unclear how long the exclusivity will last so now we know

01:13:04.440 --> 01:13:10.760
it's at least coming we're just not really sure when which is kind of

01:13:08.239 --> 01:13:16.159
unfortunate apparently Day Z is going to PS4 um I know uh rocket two guns or

01:13:14.639 --> 01:13:21.560
whatever I think that's what he refers to himself as Rocket two guns in the

01:13:18.760 --> 01:13:26.679
dude posted by Jam dude has yeah rocket two guns or Dean Hall in the past has

01:13:23.920 --> 01:13:32.400
kind of mashed consoles a little bit not a ton but a little bit there's a tweet

01:13:28.560 --> 01:13:35.159
here if you jump back real quick yeah

01:13:32.400 --> 01:13:39.120
excuse me sorry problem tired it's I was just going to say I think we're both

01:13:36.080 --> 01:13:45.400
pretty tired this week

01:13:39.120 --> 01:13:49.320
um yeah no I see the one yeah

01:13:45.400 --> 01:13:51.639
so um some guy says PS4 next release

01:13:49.320 --> 01:13:57.679
please uh slightly different wording but yeah and then uh another guy named guy

01:13:56.040 --> 01:14:01.880
say uh it hasn't even been fully released on our glorious PC what are you

01:13:59.520 --> 01:14:05.719
expecting peasant and then Dean Hall also known as Rocket two guns responds

01:14:03.719 --> 01:14:10.719
yes quiet consoles the men folk are talking so he has bashed consoles a

01:14:07.960 --> 01:14:14.960
little bit in the past but then has um claimed on Reddit I believe it was that

01:14:13.600 --> 01:14:19.560
getting it on the consoles might help funding to get other things so

01:14:16.840 --> 01:14:25.280
essentially uh stuff like DirectX 11 and 64bit support

01:14:22.719 --> 01:14:29.120
so apparently they used a little bit of the PC

01:14:26.440 --> 01:14:33.440
funding to get their PlayStation agreement thing going on so that's kind

01:14:31.440 --> 01:14:37.400
of sketchy but that's what happens when you pre-order early withe these games

01:14:36.000 --> 01:14:44.360
yeah we really need to make that shirt but the early designs for it are terrible oh did you see them no I paid

01:14:42.280 --> 01:14:49.159
full price for this sh I didn't see it yeah no it's terrible um okay so the

01:14:46.560 --> 01:14:52.719
creator of popup ads is sorry this was originally posted on the Forum by

01:14:50.520 --> 01:14:57.199
Victoria Secret it's actually kind of a a funny little thing okay thank you

01:14:55.480 --> 01:15:02.000
continue thank you warning annoying popup Ethan

01:15:00.280 --> 01:15:06.800
Zuckerman is sorry he leads the center for civic

01:15:04.199 --> 01:15:10.600
media at MIT says he didn't realize what he was bringing into the world when he

01:15:08.239 --> 01:15:15.199
wrote the code for the first popup ad more than 20 years ago oh God tells the

01:15:13.360 --> 01:15:18.920
story of how it happened in an Exquisite essay about how the ad-based business

01:15:17.400 --> 01:15:23.679
model came to dominate the internet and why it really shouldn't and what we

01:15:21.000 --> 01:15:30.880
ought to do about it but basically what happened was um they were in the middle

01:15:27.040 --> 01:15:32.920
of of working on something and they

01:15:30.880 --> 01:15:38.679
create what happened was there was an inappropriate ad that was encouraging

01:15:36.000 --> 01:15:43.560
anal sex or something like that on a car manufacturer's website and they went

01:15:40.239 --> 01:15:45.440
whoa hold on a second like you know ads

01:15:43.560 --> 01:15:50.360
are good but we don't want to be associated with this so the idea was if

01:15:47.679 --> 01:15:53.239
it was a popup it wouldn't be associated with the website and it wouldn't

01:15:51.400 --> 01:16:00.120
actually have to be on the website it would be separate so it would allow

01:15:56.800 --> 01:16:04.639
advertisers and content hosts to

01:16:00.120 --> 01:16:06.560
dissociate each other from each other so

01:16:04.639 --> 01:16:11.760
that was the intention um yeah and he just says I'm

01:16:09.639 --> 01:16:20.199
sorry our intentions were good sorry man but I

01:16:16.920 --> 01:16:23.320
know you didn't see that going anywhere

01:16:20.199 --> 01:16:26.360
bad well okay you think about the way

01:16:23.320 --> 01:16:29.000
that you might sort of cludge something

01:16:26.360 --> 01:16:31.679
just as a temporary fix I guess you really think about the long-term

01:16:30.199 --> 01:16:36.040
implications someone was probably able to Jack that code so he probably was

01:16:34.159 --> 01:16:41.679
like I'm making this for me and someone was like I'm taking this for me it is

01:16:38.280 --> 01:16:44.840
mine now and then that was bad yeah

01:16:41.679 --> 01:16:46.679
super super super bad okay I just got to

01:16:44.840 --> 01:16:51.760
do a quick search for a hashtag here because oh right yeah that makes sense

01:16:49.080 --> 01:16:55.159
we have a Squarespace subscription to give away today

01:16:55.280 --> 01:17:02.880
all right so I'm searching for # Linus

01:16:59.239 --> 01:17:05.060
Squarespace and I think we might have a

01:17:02.880 --> 01:17:07.560
winner oh

01:17:07.560 --> 01:17:16.080
no okay is this the thing I don't know

I thought we might get it this time jez but there you go guys and that's the

01:20:29.080 --> 01:20:34.280
most basic Squarespace plan and the great thing about it is it's scalable on

its own so if all of a sudden you need a lot more bandwidth all you have to do is

01:20:36.679 --> 01:20:43.480

giveaway I think that's pretty much it people keep saying it's down and then I

01:21:33.440 --> 01:21:39.560
test it and it's totally not it's totally not guys here okay okay here

01:21:37.080 --> 01:21:46.560
here here here here here here here not down at all wrecked there we go all

01:21:44.400 --> 01:21:52.880
right so let's go ahead and move on I think we have like one more topic today

01:21:49.040 --> 01:21:55.159
oh oh this one oh this is good news and

01:21:52.880 --> 01:22:02.600
like terrible news at the same time Intel teams up with 50

01:21:58.800 --> 01:22:03.960
Cent well 50 Cent company SMS Audio on

01:22:02.600 --> 01:22:09.280
biometric earbuds so the technolog is cool

01:22:07.280 --> 01:22:12.679
basically it's a biometric monitoring Gadget so it's going to check your heart

01:22:11.000 --> 01:22:16.239
rate temperature blah blah blah blah blah blah blah I actually don't remember

01:22:14.679 --> 01:22:22.159
exactly what it monitors I don't much care because I personally think that an

01:22:18.880 --> 01:22:25.639
earphone is an in phenomenally stupid

01:22:22.159 --> 01:22:28.400
place to wear that I mean the the

01:22:25.639 --> 01:22:33.760
article says something about uh it seems like one of the obstacles for wearables

01:22:31.280 --> 01:22:40.080
uh is that people are not looking for a new thing to wear but the problem is

01:22:36.920 --> 01:22:42.280
that nobody lives with their earbuds in

01:22:40.080 --> 01:22:46.520
the whole time so well if it's for working out if it's just for working out

01:22:44.600 --> 01:22:50.960
then okay but that doesn't actually give you that much useful information about

01:22:48.840 --> 01:22:56.199
your overall lifestyle yes this is true so who gives a crap you

01:22:53.840 --> 01:23:03.120
might as well just suck it up and wear an armband

01:22:58.440 --> 01:23:04.800
then so okay anyway uh basically the

01:23:03.120 --> 01:23:12.040
price point will be acceptable to Consumers says SMS Audio says SMS Audio

01:23:10.199 --> 01:23:17.360
so what does that mean

01:23:14.679 --> 01:23:21.880
$200 and they sound like poo poo yeah they say the thing the thing that drives

01:23:19.159 --> 01:23:26.239
me crazy about this is it's an article about earphones that makes no

01:23:25.159 --> 01:23:34.719
of how they sound they're earphones if IED a monitor

01:23:30.960 --> 01:23:37.120
thing that I we in my ear then that's

01:23:34.719 --> 01:23:41.480
what I would look for why would I want earphones that sound bad and I'm

01:23:40.199 --> 01:23:48.199
assuming they're going to sound bad although I would be willing to

01:23:43.280 --> 01:23:51.960
completely reverse my sort of you know

01:23:48.199 --> 01:23:53.239
analysis here if uh if I do try them out

01:23:51.960 --> 01:23:57.719
and they're great like I'm not going to be close-minded about it but I just

01:23:55.120 --> 01:24:06.000
don't expect them to sound good at all I mean if you saw our review of the

01:24:02.360 --> 01:24:08.000
of the streets by 50 on ear yeah that

01:24:06.000 --> 01:24:12.520
was just bad I wonder how much the Star Wars

01:24:10.360 --> 01:24:16.120
edition in your biometric ones are going to cost I really wish we'd stopped

01:24:14.639 --> 01:24:20.080
giving this kind of nonsense our attention we shouldn't have even talked

01:24:18.040 --> 01:24:25.400
about it we should have just completely ignored it but if we the biometric thing

01:24:23.400 --> 01:24:29.040
is cool though yeah yeah Oh you mean like on the show I was going to say the

01:24:27.440 --> 01:24:36.000
review was good cuz we smashed it so that means that other people can tell people it was bad I don't think we have

01:24:33.040 --> 01:24:40.119
to inform the informants the problem with us doing a review of something like

01:24:38.120 --> 01:24:44.800
streets by 50 I mean that was a onetime thing I think where I was just like oh

01:24:42.719 --> 01:24:48.639
this is Star Wars which is cool but it's also an obviously terrible pair of

01:24:47.080 --> 01:24:54.000
headphones and it's expensive which is hilarious I bought them intending to

01:24:52.199 --> 01:24:59.159
slam them because I knew they were going to be bad I did do my due diligence I

01:24:57.000 --> 01:25:03.320
made sure they were bad before I slammed them but I bought them intending to do

01:25:01.360 --> 01:25:09.719
that I'm not going to make a habit of just buying stuff to be terrible we do

01:25:07.280 --> 01:25:13.639
though not very often not often at all once every quarter every six months or

01:25:11.920 --> 01:25:19.320
something like that so I'm not going to run out and buy these just so that I can

01:25:15.480 --> 01:25:20.440
declare them to be horrible um and I I I

01:25:19.320 --> 01:25:25.679
guess I just don't really know what to say about it

01:25:22.679 --> 01:25:27.239
anymore the only uh like biometrically

01:25:25.679 --> 01:25:30.199
scanning kind of thingy that I've seen in a long time that I cared about was

01:25:28.800 --> 01:25:34.239
that thing that I mentioned to you where it was the I believe it was a wristband

01:25:32.159 --> 01:25:39.000
but who really cares and it's constantly measuring and it measures like uh like

01:25:36.800 --> 01:25:42.600
the salt and stuff in your skin yeah to figure out like do you need to drink

01:25:40.600 --> 01:25:45.560
more water do you need to eat more food do you need to work out more do you need

01:25:44.360 --> 01:25:49.040
to start moving because you've been too idle like that one's kind of interesting

01:25:47.719 --> 01:25:54.080
because every once's in a while it'll be like hey you haven't had any water today go drink some or you're malnourished

01:25:52.679 --> 01:26:00.560
right now go eat something yeah that to me is a lot more useful whereas something like in ears um that you're

01:25:58.159 --> 01:26:05.800
going to be wearing maybe an hour a day that's not going to give any kind of

01:26:02.760 --> 01:26:08.600
useful information it's just it's just

01:26:05.800 --> 01:26:14.639
marketing to PE to gullible people based on that whole fad of Fitness midlevel

01:26:12.920 --> 01:26:19.800
monitoring like that's that's all it's another we fit yeah that's what it is

01:26:17.600 --> 01:26:24.320
Fitness stuff will always sell yeah I know I just and okay I've got a lot of

01:26:22.159 --> 01:26:30.159
people saying that yes reviews like the Star Wars edition streets by 50 on years

01:26:27.199 --> 01:26:35.600
are important but I don't actually agree because you guys already know you watch

01:26:33.639 --> 01:26:40.920
this show so who are we reaching we're not

01:26:38.600 --> 01:26:46.320
reaching the people who are buying this stuff and leaving rave reviews on Amazon

01:26:43.360 --> 01:26:46.320
about how great they

01:26:46.840 --> 01:26:51.320
are I don't know it's you have to also

01:26:50.320 --> 01:26:55.679
calculate in that we're getting new viewers all the time so they may not actually know and if one of their

01:26:54.239 --> 01:26:59.080
friends is fairly dead set on buying it and they try to tell them it's bad and

01:26:57.520 --> 01:27:03.719
they're like oh no I don't know I've heard it's pretty good they could show them the video still use behind my

01:27:02.400 --> 01:27:07.639
name's not going to carry a ton of weight with that person because they

01:27:06.000 --> 01:27:11.040
never heard they see that it's a fairly fairly well shot video so it seems

01:27:09.400 --> 01:27:15.600
fairly legit there's quite a few views on it and they'll go and then they'll go

01:27:13.040 --> 01:27:20.480
look at five star customer reviews two of them on Amazon doesn't matter some of

01:27:17.840 --> 01:27:24.840
the other amazon.com has 75 averaging four and a half Stars this is amazon.cm

01:27:22.800 --> 01:27:29.440
on right now so that what we're up against we're up against people who

01:27:26.719 --> 01:27:39.719
don't know any better and buy whatever FY tells them to and like it and it's

01:27:34.520 --> 01:27:41.239
just wow wow in my opinion SMS is better

01:27:39.719 --> 01:27:44.719
and wouldn't mind recommending it to my friends I mean we're talking verified

01:27:42.719 --> 01:27:49.800
purchases here better than what beats better than I don't know airplane

01:27:46.199 --> 01:27:51.440
headphones probably the the the issue is

01:27:49.800 --> 01:27:55.520
that people don't these sound so purchased SMS Audio is the best way to

01:27:53.239 --> 01:27:58.679
listen to music that doesn't mentioned these headphones are made of superb

01:27:57.080 --> 01:28:02.520
quality build and sound they're more durable than beats and they sound better

01:28:00.159 --> 01:28:08.800
and clearer that sounds incredibly purchased just saying oh but the but

01:28:06.199 --> 01:28:12.920
like the grammar is wrong so it probably is an end user I I would no that that's

01:28:11.159 --> 01:28:16.440
happened in purchase ones a lot yeah I guess you're probably right like a ton

01:28:15.000 --> 01:28:22.280
mainly you see the grammar problem and spelling problem thing people like audio

01:28:18.679 --> 01:28:26.800
is subjective man no it isn't there's

01:28:22.280 --> 01:28:29.040
bad audio bad audio AIO is bad audio and

01:28:26.800 --> 01:28:34.119
streets by 50 are objectively bad they do not take the

01:28:32.119 --> 01:28:38.760
signal that comes into them and output something that resembles it that's bad I

01:28:36.719 --> 01:28:42.840
think there's there's a there's a there is some subjectivity but bad is bad but

01:28:41.520 --> 01:28:47.000
there's yeah there's still there's still a threshold of this is this is just bad

01:28:45.679 --> 01:28:51.639
and these ones are good and these ones are subjective it's like wine there's

01:28:49.800 --> 01:28:56.440
lots of different good wine and they can be different from each other but bad

01:28:53.800 --> 01:29:01.560
wine is going to make anybody throw up as if they've tried good wine especially

01:28:59.080 --> 01:29:06.119
that's all there is to it done I really hoped everyone who watched this show

01:29:03.800 --> 01:29:13.960
knew better but apparently they don't sorry anyway I think on that sort of

01:29:10.080 --> 01:29:15.840
annoying note we're done here um right

01:29:13.960 --> 01:29:19.440
