1
00:00:03,080 --> 00:00:10,960
the W show is theoretically live so hoay

00:01:34,799 --> 00:01:41,759
that's a complete lie and it's not on the calendar one it's on my calendar because

22
00:01:40,119 --> 00:01:46,520
I manually put everyone's birthdays on my calendar cuz I will not remember them

23
00:01:43,399 --> 00:01:49,479
if I don't even like my mom my brother

24
00:01:46,520 --> 00:01:55,479
everyone everyone has a manual entry so I remembered because Google

25
00:01:52,439 --> 00:01:58,920
remembered fantastic um and it's also

26
00:01:55,479 --> 00:02:03,240

00:02:21,239 --> 00:02:29,640
the Internet because let's face it it's not always easy to hop on a plane like

33
00:02:26,640 --> 00:02:32,720
some of our incredible viewers did I

34
00:02:29,640 --> 00:02:36,120
actually had three people drop off with

35
00:02:32,720 --> 00:02:38,680

36
00:02:36,120 --> 00:02:46,159

and then Sebastian who actually shares

43
00:03:04,400 --> 00:03:12,239
his first name with my last name even the same spelling which is uh which is

44
00:03:09,040 --> 00:03:15,599
unusual so we had an incredible turnout

45
00:03:12,239 --> 00:03:18,159
today some people hailing from BC um who

46
00:03:15,599 --> 00:03:23,480
drove up to you know eight plus hours we had a couple people show up at the same

47
00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:27,040
time from Winnipeg how they managed to

48
00:03:23,480 --> 00:03:29,519
time that I'm not not completely certain

49
00:03:27,040 --> 00:03:33,959
so uh pretty pretty unbelievable there guys so we've got a bunch of great

50
00:03:30,680 --> 00:03:35,799
topics for you today I think um I've got

51
00:03:33,959 --> 00:03:41,680
call outs now yep the Ashley Madison hack has got some serious updates uh and

52
00:03:39,439 --> 00:03:47,000
we'll get to that later on on the show also a research lab has accidentally

53
00:03:44,319 --> 00:03:52,640
created a longer lasting battery how' they do that well the same way hey oh

54
00:03:50,000 --> 00:03:55,599
here Silly Putty also an accident there you go I believe they were trying to

55
00:03:53,760 --> 00:03:59,840
make some kind of better rubber or something Google project sunroof which

56
00:03:58,000 --> 00:04:03,920
is Google's way to try to help every body get solar panels and also Popcorn

57
00:04:02,040 --> 00:04:07,760
Time users are finally getting attacked by various companies oh that was a

58
00:04:05,799 --> 00:04:10,400
matter of time all right let's roll that intro think it's going to work no

59
00:04:09,159 --> 00:04:14,879
actually I know for a fact it isn't going to work oh what did I just do

60
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:18,160
preview hold on hold on I got this i got this i got this yeah who I thought you

61
00:04:16,959 --> 00:04:22,680
said it wasn't going to work well it sort of worked worked a little bit it is

62
00:04:20,680 --> 00:04:27,360
working though I want to go to the

63
00:04:25,400 --> 00:04:31,919
auction you can go what if there's something cheap I don't like I miss out

64
00:04:30,680 --> 00:04:35,440
there will be something cheap I think there's still like a Titan black or two

65
00:04:33,840 --> 00:04:39,759
I actually did hear about that and there's like there's like only so many

66
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:44,280
people that still have cash so i' suspect they're taking it away for not a

67
00:04:41,280 --> 00:04:47,880
whole lot of it well if you can take

68
00:04:44,280 --> 00:04:49,639
like $2 I think I'm good other than that

69
00:04:47,880 --> 00:04:54,199
I don't know so much I think we did multiples of five anyway okay so I think

70
00:04:52,240 --> 00:04:57,520
you're you're wed you're wrecked all right all right so why don't we jump

71
00:04:55,680 --> 00:05:04,520
right into our first topic of the day sure Google makes it own $200 wireless

72
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:08,639
router onhub so the original tic are you posting in the twitch chat sure okay you

73
00:05:06,520 --> 00:05:12,720
got this so the original article here is from The Verge I'm just going to go

74
00:05:10,039 --> 00:05:17,280
ahead and uh share that with you guys here I think I'm clicking news item

75
00:05:14,960 --> 00:05:21,840
nothing is happening where is my where is my window screen

76
00:05:19,880 --> 00:05:29,120
capture over this boom uh maybe just but well let's

77
00:05:25,919 --> 00:05:31,199
just but I got I got this i got this

78
00:05:29,120 --> 00:05:37,960
this show sometimes works today The Show Must Go On yes it's really not working

79
00:05:34,720 --> 00:05:41,520
is anyways uh let's we go let's cover

80
00:05:37,960 --> 00:05:43,520
Luke with it h Get Wrecked Luke yes uh

81
00:05:41,520 --> 00:05:46,759
window delete there we go the on HUB is purely just a router not a speaker or a

82
00:05:45,319 --> 00:05:52,000
few other things people thought it looks kind of similar to the E yeah it looks

83
00:05:49,919 --> 00:05:56,840
like it could be like the echo home interactivity device yes but it's super

84
00:05:54,520 --> 00:06:01,560
not doesn't work at all in Canada which we found out the hard way so here's Kind

85
00:05:58,880 --> 00:06:04,639
of a Funny Story story for uh everyone here and I guess everyone who's watching

86
00:06:03,080 --> 00:06:11,240
the show since everyone's kind of live at the moment um I went out of my way I

87
00:06:08,039 --> 00:06:13,440
got myself a Us address to ship it to

88
00:06:11,240 --> 00:06:19,360
and I bought the remote that goes with it I picked up an Amazon Echo it sat on

89
00:06:17,080 --> 00:06:23,599
my table at home for like two weeks cuz I was like the way this has to be

90
00:06:21,599 --> 00:06:28,919
reviewed is kind of different you have to make it part of your life you can't

91
00:06:25,319 --> 00:06:31,360
just sit in front of it and go Echo tell

92
00:06:28,919 --> 00:06:34,120
me about Le birs well it's material quality isn't really that great but I

93
00:06:33,199 --> 00:06:40,120
don't know it could work in your computer because you're reviewing a lifestyle product so I was like Luke I

94
00:06:38,160 --> 00:06:43,680
do not have time for this can you do the echo he goes yeah sure that sounds right

95
00:06:42,000 --> 00:06:50,039
up my alley and I have a week's vacation and I was looking for something to work on from work anyway so how'd that go for

96
00:06:47,680 --> 00:06:53,280
you uh it doesn't work in Canada it literally only works in the states so

97
00:06:51,720 --> 00:06:57,280
what I would have to do to be able to get it to work is get a US registered

98
00:06:55,720 --> 00:07:00,639
mobile device and then connect to it over Wi-Fi to actually set it up the

99
00:06:59,080 --> 00:07:05,599
problem with that is I could I could like proxy out my router do whatever but

100
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:10,120
it has to persistently be like that so I'd have to like make my router think it

101
00:07:07,199 --> 00:07:14,879
was in the states for like a month and that doesn't sound fun so nope and also

102
00:07:12,919 --> 00:07:18,400
it wouldn't be a proper Fair review either because it's designed to work in

103
00:07:16,520 --> 00:07:21,639
the states so even if parts of it did work it wouldn't be able to properly do

104
00:07:19,919 --> 00:07:25,400
a lot of its functions so I wouldn't be able to properly say what the experience

105
00:07:23,759 --> 00:07:30,840
was like so that's not going to happen so we gave up welcome to one of the many

106
00:07:28,479 --> 00:07:35,720
stupid things that we we waste our money on and that never even turned into a

107
00:07:32,840 --> 00:07:39,759
video because we thought hey maybe we can a lot of the time we pull this off

108
00:07:37,400 --> 00:07:44,159
we'll take something that's not going to work and we'll just force it to work and

109
00:07:42,680 --> 00:07:48,120
we'll and we'll make that stuff happen but a lot of the time it it just doesn't

110
00:07:45,919 --> 00:07:51,680
work out here's some cool news though the onhub we are definitely going to be

111
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:57,120
able to do something with and in fact I believe we are going to be getting one of the earliest samples oh that's cool

112
00:07:55,400 --> 00:08:02,280
yeah you didn't know that no I didn't even know we were getting it because not that long ago you said we weren't doing

113
00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:05,800
routers anymore well the thing that a week the thing that I'm interested in

114
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:09,680
about this is a couple of things number one is why Google thinks they need a

115
00:08:07,479 --> 00:08:13,879
router at all yeah what they believe they bring to the table other than

116
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:18,680
sitting between you and all of your possible internet traffic that they can

117
00:08:16,479 --> 00:08:22,599
get whatever it is that they want to get out of that um hopefully they're

118
00:08:21,120 --> 00:08:27,280
bringing some kind of a value proposition to the table so I want to

119
00:08:24,199 --> 00:08:29,520
find out what it is yeah it doesn't

120
00:08:27,280 --> 00:08:33,800
really seem extremely Apparent at first number two is I want to have a look at

121
00:08:31,360 --> 00:08:38,519
the performance because the only thing that jumped into my mind that they might

122
00:08:36,440 --> 00:08:43,279
think that they add to the table is Affordable performance and $200 is still

123
00:08:41,120 --> 00:08:49,000
an expensive router but if they can handle full gigabit well yeah which is a

124
00:08:46,800 --> 00:08:54,480
service they offer to their customers then maybe there's a value to it so I

125
00:08:52,640 --> 00:08:58,959
definitely do want to check it out but I don't know how it also be interesting if

126
00:08:57,120 --> 00:09:02,480
you got it at like a cheaper cost if you signed up for for their internet service

127
00:09:00,240 --> 00:09:07,519
at the same time I also really want to see if they have some kind of crazy

128
00:09:04,959 --> 00:09:13,560
Wi-Fi technology going on inside because as you guys may or may not know I'm not

129
00:09:10,440 --> 00:09:16,320
a huge fan of anything but the best

130
00:09:13,560 --> 00:09:22,720
Wi-Fi and the stuff we have here thank you for that uh the stuff we have here

131
00:09:19,480 --> 00:09:26,480
is almost as good as it

132
00:09:22,720 --> 00:09:30,079
gets this whole show is as good as it

133
00:09:26,480 --> 00:09:32,800
gets but it's not the Enterprise version

134
00:09:30,079 --> 00:09:37,839
so we've got some stuff from xclaim which is a daughter company of ruckus so

135
00:09:35,880 --> 00:09:42,440
if we had Ruckus access points which their top ofth line goes for like a

136
00:09:39,560 --> 00:09:47,399
th000 bucks a pop us really good like they're awesome but no we're not putting

137
00:09:44,800 --> 00:09:51,040
like four of those in our office um if we had those we probably could have

138
00:09:48,760 --> 00:09:58,279
handled everyone's Wi-Fi today but we're all on one midgrade unit today because

139
00:09:55,560 --> 00:10:01,360
my data terminations are not done in this side of the building so I'm

140
00:09:59,839 --> 00:10:05,399
supposed to have one in each corner of the building sort of like it's more

141
00:10:04,040 --> 00:10:08,560
complicated than that but I'm supposed to have at least two at the front here

142
00:10:07,440 --> 00:10:14,880
that I was hoping people would be able to use and I only have one that's really

143
00:10:10,959 --> 00:10:17,240
in range but um I want to see what

144
00:10:14,880 --> 00:10:22,120
Google has managed to do in terms of of Wi-Fi so they're saying it's got 13

145
00:10:18,720 --> 00:10:24,720
antennas inside um which would be used

146
00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:28,519
for beam forming and narrowing in on where exactly the devices are and and

147
00:10:26,600 --> 00:10:33,040
hopefully getting better signal out of it I mean most companies just do it so

148
00:10:30,399 --> 00:10:38,240
poorly though that I've kind of given up on consumer grade Wi-Fi so if Google

149
00:10:34,959 --> 00:10:39,880
can't turn me around on this then um

150
00:10:38,240 --> 00:10:45,040
there's a few things that I actually really like from like a family it dude

151
00:10:43,160 --> 00:10:49,680
perspective so if you're the IT guy for like your immediate family and like your

152
00:10:46,680 --> 00:10:51,760
grandma and stuff because uh one of the

153
00:10:49,680 --> 00:10:57,040
Google on apps that you can have on your phone allows you to set up people like a

154
00:10:54,200 --> 00:11:03,040
friend to help you remotely so if your grandma is like my RoR isn't working I

155
00:11:00,480 --> 00:11:07,440
don't have the internets you could remotely go in you don't have to go to

156
00:11:04,880 --> 00:11:10,920
her house necessarily so like if if you should go visit your grandma but like if

157
00:11:09,399 --> 00:11:14,240
you can't for whatever reason she needs to get on the internet you can fix it

158
00:11:12,639 --> 00:11:18,000
first and then you can go hang out with her and the internet I think it's kind

159
00:11:16,760 --> 00:11:21,800
of cool being able to remotely fix things easily hang out with the internet

160
00:11:20,120 --> 00:11:25,399
yeah I guess that's basic you not hang out with the internet I hang out with

161
00:11:23,120 --> 00:11:31,240
the internet all the time exactly yeah I never use Google Hangouts for it though

162
00:11:29,360 --> 00:11:34,920
there's also really easy setup and whatnot so if you've got a buddy who's

163
00:11:33,279 --> 00:11:38,079
looking for a router and doesn't really know Network stuff and lives super far

164
00:11:36,480 --> 00:11:43,000
away from you you can suggest this to him maybe if it's good yeah we got to

165
00:11:40,639 --> 00:11:48,560
find out if it's easy Everyone is always promising me this network attached

166
00:11:45,760 --> 00:11:54,639
storage device is easy this router is easy I promise this time it's easy it's

167
00:11:52,560 --> 00:11:59,480
never easy no and one thing that's confusing is they're like it's easier

168
00:11:56,399 --> 00:12:02,399
than 1 2 3core lowercase c lower lower

169
00:11:59,480 --> 00:12:06,839
case C capital F lowercase j lowercase p lowercase x what the hell is that that

170
00:12:05,440 --> 00:12:11,680
doesn't sound easy at all that's right from the onhub page so we are we're

171
00:12:09,399 --> 00:12:17,160
we're hoping we're hoping for that's a funny joke and Google's actually really

172
00:12:14,240 --> 00:12:20,639
nailed it this time yeah all right they didn't have to hire a designer CU they

173
00:12:18,600 --> 00:12:25,440
just copied the echo it looks exactly like the echo it

174
00:12:23,959 --> 00:12:29,959
just has like a little divoted ring on the inside I mean in their in their in

175
00:12:27,639 --> 00:12:33,959
their defense the echo basically just looks like that

176
00:12:31,920 --> 00:12:38,240
um sorry no well it does look like that

177
00:12:36,199 --> 00:12:43,760
dlink router but I was actually thinking of uh logitech's Ultimate Ears uh boom

178
00:12:41,560 --> 00:12:50,760
ah yeah yeah yeah so yeah it's like well ours has less

179
00:12:46,839 --> 00:12:53,360
mesh or something yeah that's totally

180
00:12:50,760 --> 00:12:58,760
different this is ours it's Unique it's new it also has networking capability we

181
00:12:55,920 --> 00:13:01,120
changed everything again it's a slightly different

182
00:13:01,920 --> 00:13:07,399
cylinder okay moving on all right so uh

183
00:13:05,240 --> 00:13:13,440
here's a bit of news out of Amazon Jeff bzo says that they will not tolerate

184
00:13:10,480 --> 00:13:17,920
callus management practices so this article is from USA Today let's go ahead

185
00:13:15,760 --> 00:13:21,360
and uh drop the oh look at somebody's sponsor

186
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:26,800
message something to do with weed whacking uh let's go ahead and drop the

187
00:13:23,680 --> 00:13:28,480
the article so uh some of the more

188
00:13:26,800 --> 00:13:32,199
memorable you can mow an entire lawn with a WeedWacker some of the more memorable

189
00:13:33,120 --> 00:13:40,279
anecdotes um I know that it was done once

190
00:13:37,399 --> 00:13:45,639
ever instead of weekly never mind

191
00:13:42,680 --> 00:13:50,279
continue uh so here are so so basically the question the article asks is can I

192
00:13:47,440 --> 00:13:53,880
continue to support Amazon with my money um and there are some anecdotes about

193
00:13:52,040 --> 00:13:57,399
you know working conditions at Amazon woman who had just lost a child in

194
00:13:55,279 --> 00:14:01,320
pregnancy was put on performance review for not giving her all to the company

195
00:13:59,120 --> 00:14:05,519
apparently emails are sent out at all hours miss the midnight email you get a

196
00:14:03,800 --> 00:14:09,000
text message a few minutes later asking why you haven't replied uh daily

197
00:14:07,639 --> 00:14:12,920
performance reviews are apparently standard giving opportunities the opport

198
00:14:11,320 --> 00:14:17,199
or giving employees the opportunity to chime in and tear down others

199
00:14:14,839 --> 00:14:22,000
anonymously so you know some of these things are kind of you know not too not

200
00:14:20,160 --> 00:14:27,360
too great so this was an expose done by the New York Times

201
00:14:24,639 --> 00:14:34,120
um I mean there's some stuff here that's like quite frankly I send out email at

202
00:14:29,800 --> 00:14:36,560
all times of night um in fact I have now

203
00:14:34,120 --> 00:14:42,759
officially sent out an email at night after hours asking for a reply at night

204
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:45,880
after hours but it was for their benefit

205
00:14:42,759 --> 00:14:45,880
it was so that I wouldn't fire

206
00:14:46,279 --> 00:14:50,959
them I do a Hangouts at like 11:45

207
00:14:49,560 --> 00:14:54,519
yesterday it was but it was for their benefit I actually gave the employees a

208
00:14:52,839 --> 00:14:58,000
bit of an early crack at the garage sale items so I told them I needed to know

209
00:14:56,560 --> 00:15:01,560
what they wanted before we did the garage sale today so and I do send

210
00:15:00,040 --> 00:15:06,360
emails all times of night but I generally don't expect a reply until

211
00:15:04,399 --> 00:15:13,360
until the morning um so Amazon's founder says he doesn't

212
00:15:10,639 --> 00:15:18,040
recognize the company described um refers to shockingly callous management

213
00:15:15,480 --> 00:15:23,759
practices and urges employees to contact HR or even him if any situation like

214
00:15:21,279 --> 00:15:28,800
that has occurred he says even if it's rare or isolated our tolerance for such

215
00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:30,240
a lack of empathy needs to be zero so at

216
00:15:28,800 --> 00:15:35,000
the very least they're dealing with it internally I mean this is something that

217
00:15:32,839 --> 00:15:39,079
is really good for me to hear because as many of our viewers know we do a shout

218
00:15:36,839 --> 00:15:47,120
out to shop on Amazon at the end of almost all of our videos um and we are

219
00:15:44,240 --> 00:15:51,600
like a major Amazon affiliate partner that's that's a that's a huge huge

220
00:15:50,000 --> 00:15:56,600
that's been a huge helper for us over the last couple of years since we

221
00:15:53,240 --> 00:15:59,040
started doing it um so for me to you

222
00:15:56,600 --> 00:16:02,319
know find out that the company that I don't know if a lot of people know this

223
00:16:00,440 --> 00:16:07,399
but if you're in a particularly charitable mood and you're buying something on Amazon you don't have to

224
00:16:04,839 --> 00:16:12,720
use our affiliate code they've also got their um what's that program called uh

225
00:16:10,160 --> 00:16:15,600
smile right yes smile yeah Amazon smile where they'll actually contribute it's a

226
00:16:14,199 --> 00:16:19,399
smaller percentage then they give Affiliates I think you can do both can

227
00:16:17,519 --> 00:16:23,279
you do both I think you can do smile dot cuz it's smile Dot and then the tag is

228
00:16:21,600 --> 00:16:27,160
at the end oh I'm pretty sure you can do both at any rate you know if you guys

229
00:16:25,399 --> 00:16:30,720
are looking for a way to contribute to a charity of your choice you can actually

230
00:16:29,079 --> 00:16:34,040
pick your charity and use smile to donate I think it's one or one and a

231
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:40,560
half% or something like that of your purchase value so you know they seem

232
00:16:36,800 --> 00:16:42,480
like pretty good guys it seemed like a

233
00:16:40,560 --> 00:16:46,639
safe thing for us to call out all the time you hear this stuff about valve and

234
00:16:44,560 --> 00:16:50,560
everybody y yeah I mean there was that big uh there was that big thing with

235
00:16:48,319 --> 00:16:53,680
valve employees sort of you know blowing the lid off of you know you think it

236
00:16:52,240 --> 00:16:56,399
isn't as flat of a structure as you think it is and it's just a boys club

237
00:16:55,360 --> 00:17:00,360
and like all this kind of stuff like this this happens from every company it

238
00:16:58,360 --> 00:17:04,319
might be true to a certain degree I'm sure a lot of it is true to a certain

239
00:17:03,000 --> 00:17:08,000
degree but it's probably exaggerated when told in an

240
00:17:06,640 --> 00:17:16,039
interview yeah I mean you always need to get both sides of any story

241
00:17:11,280 --> 00:17:18,559
so okay uh Bitcoin could split in a

242
00:17:16,039 --> 00:17:22,600
debate over the currency's future but not Dogecoin right yeah we got to get

243
00:17:21,280 --> 00:17:29,840
hold on we got to get our buddy with the Dogecoin shirt pimping the Dogecoin come

244
00:17:25,120 --> 00:17:31,600
on come on Dogecoin is United Doge coin

245
00:17:29,840 --> 00:17:35,200
will never fail yes go up a little bit go up a

246
00:17:33,919 --> 00:17:38,080
little bit yeah there you go there you go yeah

247
00:17:42,280 --> 00:17:49,320
yeah uh so our article here is from the

248
00:17:45,799 --> 00:17:51,200
BBC I love that shirt man it's great go

249
00:17:49,320 --> 00:17:55,720
away it needs more doge meme on it though

250
00:17:52,840 --> 00:18:02,080
um so there you go remember guys physical Bitcoin coins are not act

251
00:17:59,440 --> 00:18:06,600
necessarily A Thing It's All Digital but some people did make them for laws and

252
00:18:04,200 --> 00:18:12,039
you know people gathered them or something um so basically what's going

253
00:18:09,159 --> 00:18:19,880
down is there's two sides to bitcoin so there's Bitcoin core the original

254
00:18:16,440 --> 00:18:22,120
and wait hold on a second okay so

255
00:18:19,880 --> 00:18:27,480
they're on the side of increasing wallet size Bitcoin XT which is a slight

256
00:18:24,360 --> 00:18:29,520
variation is lightweight wallets so

257
00:18:27,480 --> 00:18:35,559
bitcoin's Creator said in 10 it would be nice to keep the blockchain files small

258
00:18:32,679 --> 00:18:39,960
as long as we can um the eventual solution will be to not care how big it

259
00:18:37,840 --> 00:18:44,640
gets when I eventually implemented client only mode uh that won't matter

260
00:18:42,760 --> 00:18:48,880
much anymore but in recent months it's become clear that a small group of

261
00:18:47,080 --> 00:18:53,039
people have a radically different plan for Bitcoin and that's Bitcoin XT I mean

262
00:18:51,559 --> 00:19:00,000
what if people couldn't run Bitcoin on their home computers anymore so some of the changes that they want are networks

263
00:18:57,000 --> 00:19:02,880
of payment routing hubs or something

264
00:19:00,000 --> 00:19:09,320
along those lines a sharp Ryzen fees they want to end support for mobile P2P

265
00:19:05,360 --> 00:19:11,440
wallets and give up on unconfirmed

266
00:19:09,320 --> 00:19:15,159
transactions so it's unknown if people would migrate I mean I think the whole

267
00:19:13,120 --> 00:19:21,120
digital currency thing continues to be what it is

268
00:19:16,559 --> 00:19:24,640
it's unproven until except for Dogecoin

269
00:19:21,120 --> 00:19:28,360
proven except for Dogecoin in which we

270
00:19:24,640 --> 00:19:30,240
all trust yes um the limit of the

271
00:19:28,360 --> 00:19:35,440
current system will allegedly be reached by 2017 so we've still got a year plus

272
00:19:33,600 --> 00:19:40,840
to figure out how this is all going to go down but uh you

273
00:19:38,720 --> 00:19:46,880
know I guess the thing that I don't really see as any different really here

274
00:19:44,360 --> 00:19:51,760
is it's yet another competing cryptocurrency yeah so there you go and

275
00:19:49,799 --> 00:19:56,559
they're all failing and honestly Bitcoin hasn't really been doing that great

276
00:19:53,039 --> 00:19:58,240
lately either so I mean it had to settle

277
00:19:56,559 --> 00:20:03,480
down the Gold Rush couldn't go on forever but it I I kind of hoped that it would

278
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:07,679
ride long enough that people would actually

279
00:20:04,760 --> 00:20:10,640
care like cuz there there's a problem with it's hard to spend in a lot of

280
00:20:09,440 --> 00:20:15,360
different places like someone here was like why don't you accept Bitcoin I was like well cuz it would have taken a

281
00:20:14,039 --> 00:20:20,919
little bit to set up because none of us have wallets except for me and you don't want them to give me money um I wish you

282
00:20:19,440 --> 00:20:25,120
did but doesn't work like that at companies well it's all so complicated

283
00:20:22,960 --> 00:20:30,720
because then that would be personal income to you which then you're respons

284
00:20:29,080 --> 00:20:33,880
it be that hard but there's going be like people that use it then you guys

285
00:20:32,159 --> 00:20:36,080
have tot it if you take a while tot it and it falls then it's worth less money

286
00:20:35,320 --> 00:20:44,919
and then I mean it's one of those things we've meant to kind of do forever but

287
00:20:41,360 --> 00:20:50,080
it's just easier to not I mean

288
00:20:44,919 --> 00:20:53,000
honestly I I hash got wrecked by the

289
00:20:50,080 --> 00:20:58,280
Bitcoin gold rush because back when I was working at ncx like I had access to

290
00:20:56,880 --> 00:21:02,640
even though I didn't really like have my own building toor in and it wasn't like

291
00:21:00,080 --> 00:21:10,000
all like mine sort of but I had access to all kinds of awesome gear like back

292
00:21:07,320 --> 00:21:15,840
when Bitcoins were pretty easy to mine and it was just taking off and I

293
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:18,240
actually went and I set up a mining rig

294
00:21:15,840 --> 00:21:22,640
and I was just like hey well I could set it up at the office and we'll make like

295
00:21:20,559 --> 00:21:26,799
a tech tips about it and I'll just get my boss's permission so I literally

296
00:21:24,799 --> 00:21:30,279
wouldn't have been paying for Hardware wouldn't have been paying for

297
00:21:27,880 --> 00:21:34,720
electricity even and could have mined myself a whack ton of Bitcoins cuz I had

298
00:21:32,600 --> 00:21:39,559
probably a dozen to two dozen graphics cards and test benches to match could

299
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:43,679
have just filled that crap up like before people started you know covering

300
00:21:41,840 --> 00:21:51,919
walls in their garages with Bitcoin mining Rigs and uh I like I like got

301
00:21:49,039 --> 00:21:56,320
like a bad stick of RAM in the test bench or something and like it something

302
00:21:54,919 --> 00:22:00,480
something and I just got lazy and I was like ask it that would have been huge

303
00:21:58,960 --> 00:22:04,840
cuz he's right it was it was right before the first big boom where it

304
00:22:02,880 --> 00:22:08,400
jumped up to like what was it 250 bucks or something so they were still worth

305
00:22:06,360 --> 00:22:12,840
almost nothing and Mining them you got a ton back then so he would have got like

306
00:22:11,080 --> 00:22:17,400
I could have probably made tens and tens of thousands of dollars like actually so

307
00:22:15,240 --> 00:22:19,880
I don't reject Bitcoin because I'm bitter

308
00:22:20,640 --> 00:22:26,600
though but I am a little bitter it's just it's just not why I don't bother

309
00:22:25,200 --> 00:22:31,640
with it I don't bother with it for the same reasons that I never bothered with

310
00:22:28,240 --> 00:22:33,600
it I'm just clearly shortsighted it's

311
00:22:31,640 --> 00:22:36,919
cool it's just yeah I think cryptocurrency will totally be a thing

312
00:22:35,480 --> 00:22:40,799
at some point I just think it's not right now yeah I mean the good news is

313
00:22:38,919 --> 00:22:46,159
that some more Forward Thinking companies are at least trying to adapt

314
00:22:43,880 --> 00:22:50,720
their laws to account for it um others are just completely ignoring it we'll

315
00:22:47,679 --> 00:22:53,200
see how that goes for them but

316
00:22:50,720 --> 00:22:59,159
um yeah so let's move on to our next topic I guess oh poor poor twitch chat I

317
00:22:55,799 --> 00:23:02,360
am ignoring them even more than usual

318
00:22:59,159 --> 00:23:06,480
everyone's posting salt emojis it's cuz

319
00:23:02,360 --> 00:23:08,840
you're oh me it makes a ton of sense yes

320
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:13,880
it does thanks for that twitch chat every single time I'm like you know I

321
00:23:12,240 --> 00:23:21,080
haven't been paying enough attention to Twitch chat let's give twitch chat some

322
00:23:17,360 --> 00:23:23,400
love they make me regret it every time

323
00:23:21,080 --> 00:23:23,400
every

324
00:23:24,440 --> 00:23:33,520
time all right so I'm just gonna post our I got this one oh I I did you do it

325
00:23:30,840 --> 00:23:41,440
already it's sitting right there you were ready the one time I'm

326
00:23:36,799 --> 00:23:44,760
ready research lab goof results in four

327
00:23:41,440 --> 00:23:47,200
times longer lithium ion battery working

328
00:23:44,760 --> 00:23:50,840
life so some scientists at singua University in Beijing and the

329
00:23:48,960 --> 00:23:55,600
Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Boston have been working on techniques

330
00:23:52,880 --> 00:24:00,799
to extend the working life of lithium ion batteries now to be clear this

331
00:23:57,799 --> 00:24:05,279
particular research is not to make your

332
00:24:00,799 --> 00:24:07,600
phone last for you know 3 or 4 days this

333
00:24:05,279 --> 00:24:12,279
particular technology is to make the battery last for enough recharge cycles

334
00:24:10,799 --> 00:24:19,960
that you can keep it for longer than a couple of years so this is cool because basically

335
00:24:17,640 --> 00:24:23,679
what happened is they were working on making the anodes of the battery more

336
00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:29,600
durable because that's the part that decays the fastest um and that's why

337
00:24:27,120 --> 00:24:35,080
after a few hundred charge you see a really sharp drop off and all of a

338
00:24:31,480 --> 00:24:37,440
sudden you know it's 2:00 and you're at

339
00:24:35,080 --> 00:24:42,160
you know 40% battery life that's why that happens oh and there's a train

340
00:24:40,440 --> 00:24:46,449
rude so

341
00:24:47,240 --> 00:24:54,640
rude thank you than I wonder what that sounds like twitch we can hear you

342
00:24:53,000 --> 00:24:59,120
everything is good oh this was for you I was supposed

343
00:24:57,159 --> 00:25:06,760
to throw it at you oh no this is mine

344
00:25:02,679 --> 00:25:09,279
okay yay that was to yeah you armed us

345
00:25:06,760 --> 00:25:15,320
both that's weird all right so basically a batch of

346
00:25:13,039 --> 00:25:20,760
anodes was left under chemical treatment for several hours more than they should

347
00:25:18,240 --> 00:25:26,320
have completely by accident and remember guys when you're doing lab work you're

348
00:25:23,120 --> 00:25:29,320
often working with chemicals and like

349
00:25:26,320 --> 00:25:31,840
engineering like pre reengineering

350
00:25:29,320 --> 00:25:36,559
sample grade Hardware that is unbelievably expensive to produce I mean

351
00:25:34,279 --> 00:25:42,200
you guys have no idea even something as simple and stupid as a computer case and

352
00:25:39,600 --> 00:25:47,039
I don't mean computer cases are stupid I mean they're made of materials we

353
00:25:44,080 --> 00:25:53,159
basically understand you got a plastic bezel you got your steel chassis you

354
00:25:50,000 --> 00:25:55,240
fold it up pretty much right I mean

355
00:25:53,159 --> 00:25:59,360
we're not talking we want the battery to last for four times longer we're going

356
00:25:56,880 --> 00:26:07,200
to completely re-engineer new a new compound so the stuff they're working

357
00:26:01,880 --> 00:26:10,440
with is expensive to to screw up a batch

358
00:26:07,200 --> 00:26:12,440
could cost hundreds or maybe thousands

359
00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:17,159
or even tens of thousands of dollars depending on what they're working on so

360
00:26:14,760 --> 00:26:21,679
instead of throwing them away you know someone probably got a slap on the wrist

361
00:26:19,559 --> 00:26:27,679
but they decided to test them and the results were great four times more

362
00:26:24,520 --> 00:26:28,919
durable than the current best available

363
00:26:27,679 --> 00:26:34,799
technology so they've been working on using aluminum in preference to graphite it

364
00:26:32,399 --> 00:26:38,919
expands and contracts more so in effect these cells let me get this right they

365
00:26:36,360 --> 00:26:43,039
can't just fold the metal fold the metal no no this is not a computer case okay I

366
00:26:41,960 --> 00:26:47,559
just need to make sure they can just fold the metal to be very clear they

367
00:26:45,039 --> 00:26:50,840
can't just injection mold the plastic and then fold the metal and then fold

368
00:26:48,799 --> 00:26:57,120
the metal on the other side all right cool uh so

369
00:26:54,159 --> 00:27:01,600
basically so by soaking it in sulfuric acid and titanium oxy sulfate which

370
00:26:59,720 --> 00:27:05,279
replaces the aluminum oxide from the aluminum being exposed I don't know if

371
00:27:03,440 --> 00:27:09,120
you guys know this aluminum rust is white and it oxidizes almost immediately

372
00:27:07,880 --> 00:27:13,960
that's why most people don't even know that aluminum rusts if you polish it and

373
00:27:11,520 --> 00:27:17,960
clear coat it you can actually make a very efficient mirror out of aluminum

374
00:27:16,039 --> 00:27:21,799
very interesting stupid fact that no one cares about uh but the reason it always

375
00:27:20,080 --> 00:27:27,360
looks like rubbish is because it oxidizes almost immediately just from

376
00:27:24,720 --> 00:27:31,480
being exposed to open air uh so pretty much it's uh it has a much more

377
00:27:29,600 --> 00:27:38,159
conductive titanium oxide coating effectively now which provided exactly

378
00:27:34,000 --> 00:27:41,320
the desired results completely by

379
00:27:38,159 --> 00:27:43,279
accident very very cool so epic awesome

380
00:27:41,320 --> 00:27:48,960
stuff that guy instead of getting fired got a promotion hoay maybe you got fired and

381
00:27:46,480 --> 00:27:52,840
then a promotion that' be awesome well you've been fired lots of times I'm sure

382
00:27:50,399 --> 00:27:56,640
I've promoted you at some point Y now we have a pretty flat from firstand

383
00:27:54,799 --> 00:28:03,840
experience that it's awesome it's awesome uh so LG's new Nexus 5 has

384
00:28:00,799 --> 00:28:07,799
leaked I guess Google has heard our

385
00:28:03,840 --> 00:28:10,720
cries about the Nexus 6 not being an

386
00:28:07,799 --> 00:28:14,480
Nexus 5 or wait what what's the stupid thing called is it even called an Nexus

387
00:28:12,600 --> 00:28:18,440
6 I don't know that that phone that I didn't care about that I reviewed yeah

388
00:28:16,440 --> 00:28:22,679
it is an Nexus 6 right the one that was too big their numbers are just bad and

389
00:28:20,760 --> 00:28:25,559
they should probably feel bad so it's fine they should just call it I don't

390
00:28:24,159 --> 00:28:31,399
even I don't even know what they would call it because you anyway the point is

391
00:28:28,480 --> 00:28:37,060
they heard us we don't all want a huge phone some of us have tiny hands some of

392
00:28:35,399 --> 00:28:39,240
us

393
00:28:39,240 --> 00:28:46,600
don't um to be fair though I don't even like phones that are that

394
00:28:43,519 --> 00:28:48,360
huge I what is what is let me see like

395
00:28:46,600 --> 00:28:52,000
my G3 which is not on me cuz it's charging is like borderline too large

396
00:28:50,640 --> 00:28:58,919
not because I don't like the big screen but because most of the time I'm just typing on on anyways you mean Z3 and yes

397
00:28:55,720 --> 00:29:00,480
Z3 sorry neither of us are you said g G3

398
00:28:58,919 --> 00:29:05,120
which is a phone that you did have at one point and I don't anymore I have the

399
00:29:02,399 --> 00:29:09,080
G2 yeah uh anyways and being able to type on it with one hand is helpful I

400
00:29:06,480 --> 00:29:15,039
can do that with the Z3 but it's easier on a slightly smaller pH so there you go

401
00:29:11,080 --> 00:29:17,440
a tweet from our our main man over at

402
00:29:15,039 --> 00:29:23,679
MKBHD I mean can we really say he's at MKBHD he is on Twitter but do you really

403
00:29:20,480 --> 00:29:25,679
do you really work at MKBHD isn't that

404
00:29:23,679 --> 00:29:29,840
his thing now he's like he's one guy though does but yeah but doesn't he run

405
00:29:27,279 --> 00:29:36,080
MKBHD isn't that actually his thing yeah so he so Marcus from MKBHD sure why not

406
00:29:33,240 --> 00:29:39,600
the guy yeah Marcus uh so basically it looks like it's going to have a camera

407
00:29:37,600 --> 00:29:44,240
bump it looks like it's going to say Nexus on the back I hope they removed

408
00:29:42,080 --> 00:29:48,279
this not for sale printing that's really an eyesore you I like it you like it

409
00:29:46,919 --> 00:29:52,960
because you know what my phone isn't for sale I don't want you to have my personal information I don't want you to

410
00:29:50,840 --> 00:29:57,240
buy my phone I don't know if I put my phone down uh at like Starbucks I don't

411
00:29:55,320 --> 00:30:00,279
want someone to be like yo can I buy it yeah but I don't think Googles are going

412
00:29:58,480 --> 00:30:02,640
to be down with that because everything on your

413
00:30:02,679 --> 00:30:08,880
phone it's ours good point all right all

414
00:30:06,440 --> 00:30:11,399
right all maybe they don't want me to sell it because they want to keep

415
00:30:09,919 --> 00:30:16,960
harvesting my maybe that's what's special about it just for Marquez he was

416
00:30:13,480 --> 00:30:21,240
like it's the I'll review the new Nexus

417
00:30:16,960 --> 00:30:24,480
5 but you can't have my data I want it

418
00:30:21,240 --> 00:30:27,519
right on the phone not for

419
00:30:24,480 --> 00:30:30,159
sale this is only mine speaking of not

420
00:30:27,519 --> 00:30:37,080
for sale spots on our show are for

421
00:30:32,559 --> 00:30:40,159
sale y if you're squar space yay build

422
00:30:37,080 --> 00:30:43,000
the beautiful yes thank you that is

423
00:30:40,159 --> 00:30:45,960
their slogan for the last time okay I have to make sure that every single

424
00:30:44,360 --> 00:30:50,480
person that ever watches the W show knows I should just say it as the

425
00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:53,360
opening line now of the W show hey it's going to be a good show and I'll be like

426
00:30:51,640 --> 00:30:58,600
build the beautiful so when Squarespace isn't even a sponsor you're just going

427
00:30:54,720 --> 00:31:02,080
to go and do it

428
00:30:58,600 --> 00:31:03,639
okay so Squarespace if you guys are

429
00:31:02,080 --> 00:31:07,840
watching and I'm pretty sure you are our Squarespace contact legit watches the

430
00:31:05,480 --> 00:31:12,799
show which I discovered when we had that phenomenally embarrassing situation

431
00:31:10,440 --> 00:31:17,039
where Luke told me his mom's site was hosted on

432
00:31:13,799 --> 00:31:19,360
Squarespace so we had the entire Wan

433
00:31:17,039 --> 00:31:26,039
show audience hit it all at the same time it goes down and it's hosted on

434
00:31:22,519 --> 00:31:28,440
like dog hosting or some stupid thing

435
00:31:26,039 --> 00:31:32,519
and it's down and I'm like you have got I don't care whatever it is

436
00:31:30,919 --> 00:31:38,399
it's some kind of animal that doesn't work hard enough

437
00:31:36,000 --> 00:31:43,600
so God super unhappy and they they were watching and

438
00:31:41,720 --> 00:31:47,639
I was like no you got to be kidding me so Squarespace if you're watching can

439
00:31:45,360 --> 00:31:50,120
you get a new slogan maybe just for us so he can shut up with the build it

440
00:31:49,000 --> 00:31:53,279
beautiful thing they should make it build it more beautiful but

441
00:31:54,360 --> 00:31:58,919
the so I mean that is it in a nutshell

442
00:31:57,360 --> 00:32:01,720
squares space build it beautiful they're all about people making beautiful

443
00:32:00,440 --> 00:32:06,639
websites and putting them on the Internet with their tools and their

444
00:32:04,399 --> 00:32:10,840
website hosting it comes in affordable plans all the way up to pretty darn

445
00:32:08,480 --> 00:32:15,159
beefy plans you pick from one of their templates you can make a Blog you can

446
00:32:12,559 --> 00:32:19,880
make a you know portfolio you can make oh I don't know an informational site

447
00:32:18,039 --> 00:32:24,120
about you know your company like lism Medi group.com where all these people

448
00:32:21,960 --> 00:32:28,480
found our address presumably to come and hang out with us at this live Meetup

449
00:32:26,559 --> 00:32:31,399
also there was a link in the Forum which is not a Squarespace site because they

450
00:32:30,000 --> 00:32:36,399
don't have a forum template but that's a whole other thing and the link wasn't broken you weren't signed in

451
00:32:38,320 --> 00:32:45,240
Bam um so pretty much that's all there is to

452
00:32:43,000 --> 00:32:48,760
it squarespace.com make an awesome website that runs great on your computer

453
00:32:46,960 --> 00:32:53,840
your phone whatever else and if you use offer code lius on your first purchase

454
00:32:52,399 --> 00:33:01,960
you will save 10% and I fix it is not

455
00:32:58,360 --> 00:33:03,679
a new sponsor oh today but they do can

456
00:33:01,960 --> 00:33:09,120
you be my Vanna oh yes he lives for the moments when

457
00:33:06,279 --> 00:33:14,919
they can be my Mana okay so use offer code when to save $10 off of purchase at

458
00:33:11,840 --> 00:33:16,880
ifixit.com they have all kinds of great

459
00:33:14,919 --> 00:33:21,320
guides for disassembling and reassembling and fixing phones and

460
00:33:18,880 --> 00:33:25,120
tablets and computers and laptops which are technically computers and also

461
00:33:23,559 --> 00:33:29,840
phones and tablets are technically computers too I mean anything that

462
00:33:26,559 --> 00:33:35,200
computes is a computer my computer a a

463
00:33:29,840 --> 00:33:39,480
what a moment so this is their all new

464
00:33:35,200 --> 00:33:42,760
small business like toolbox thing so

465
00:33:39,480 --> 00:33:44,799
it's got their screwdriver set which is

466
00:33:42,760 --> 00:33:48,799
kind of like a if you've ever if you got the Protech toolkit which is also in

467
00:33:46,960 --> 00:33:52,840
here and I'll show you guys that later then you'll probably have noticed that

468
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:56,159
you can stick a thing through the hole if you know what I mean and twist it

469
00:33:54,440 --> 00:34:00,480
that way but sometimes you can't get enough torque so these ones Are all uh

470
00:33:58,639 --> 00:34:04,080
are all rubber coated so they're a little bit better if you know you need a

471
00:34:02,159 --> 00:34:08,679
little bit more torque action there let's go ahead and uh what else we got

472
00:34:06,840 --> 00:34:12,679
in here they told me to familiarize myself with this kit before we started I

473
00:34:10,399 --> 00:34:19,560
didn't so here we go um we have an antistatic wrist strap as well as a safe

474
00:34:16,760 --> 00:34:24,879
anti-static mat that check this out so your wrist strap actually Clips right in

475
00:34:21,440 --> 00:34:26,720
there so you got a safe workstation no

476
00:34:24,879 --> 00:34:31,200
Tech tool kit is complete without a multimeter so you want to I mean we've

477
00:34:28,879 --> 00:34:36,040
used this stuff we've used stuff like this for even the most mundane thing

478
00:34:34,040 --> 00:34:41,679
like you don't have to be an electrical engineer to need a multimeter like uh

479
00:34:38,679 --> 00:34:43,119
EVGA uh had a like a Kingpin graphics

480
00:34:41,679 --> 00:34:47,280
card that we were overclocking and we were like are these voltage adjustments

481
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:51,040
even working are we even running the right BIOS for this some dude bought it

482
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:56,079
that graphics card someone bought it we sold it today nice all right so we were

483
00:34:53,599 --> 00:34:59,800
able to use the multimeter to validate that we got the ln2 bio correctly and

484
00:34:58,359 --> 00:35:03,480
that the voltage was actually adjusting so that's cool uh what the devil is this

485
00:35:01,960 --> 00:35:09,240
it's called an eye opener I actually don't know I know you're supposed to heat it up I'm assuming it melts like

486
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:10,800
glue and yes so these are fantastic you

487
00:35:09,240 --> 00:35:15,800
heat it up and then if you've got like an adhesive behind a some behind a

488
00:35:13,440 --> 00:35:20,160
screen or whatever it gets hot enough to melt the adhesive and make it easier to

489
00:35:17,680 --> 00:35:24,440
remove but not so hot that like you're pointing a heat gun at your device and

490
00:35:21,720 --> 00:35:28,800
probably cooking it this the prot tech tool kit has every bit under the sun

491
00:35:26,320 --> 00:35:34,880
your Tri Wings your security Torx is your your triangle bits you can take

492
00:35:32,040 --> 00:35:41,200
apart pretty much anything with this puppy we've got the screen and lens

493
00:35:38,880 --> 00:35:45,599
cleaner you that's hard to here take this ah yes I love this puppy it's

494
00:35:43,359 --> 00:35:48,960
dangerous to go the magnetic project mat we've already shown this before cuz this

495
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:53,720
is the one that I used when I did the iMac disassembly cuz there were like

496
00:35:51,200 --> 00:35:57,480
freaking 16 20 different types of screws in there so it comes with a pen with an

497
00:35:55,599 --> 00:36:01,040
eraser you write what all the stuff you have have on you put the screws on and

498
00:35:58,800 --> 00:36:05,920
it's magnetic what else is in here they have everything in here suction cups for

499
00:36:03,440 --> 00:36:11,720
pulling screens off of heavy screens off of things without dropping them or like

500
00:36:08,119 --> 00:36:12,760
slicing yourself open repair Manifesto

501
00:36:11,720 --> 00:36:17,800
oh that's cute okay well that's more of a swag

502
00:36:15,000 --> 00:36:22,240
item cleaning cloth other more rugged microfiber cleaning cloth like a a

503
00:36:20,160 --> 00:36:25,920
textured one and a non-textured one a puff thing for sticking in your eye and

504
00:36:24,480 --> 00:36:30,119
drying it out whenever you need your eyes to be dry because you too much or

00:36:33,280 --> 00:36:38,319
of their handy dandy you know slice the

507
00:36:36,520 --> 00:36:42,079
adhesive that's between the thing that you can't get at more prying tools

508
00:36:40,720 --> 00:36:46,560
extras for the ones that come in the Protech tool kit how many freaking

509
00:36:44,480 --> 00:36:50,839
things are in here A bunch of opening picks they're kind of like guitar picks

510
00:36:48,160 --> 00:36:58,760
but special for opening more pry tools more pry

511
00:36:54,240 --> 00:36:58,760
tools more pry tools

512
00:36:59,040 --> 00:37:06,000
ah they're plastic cards next time you don't want to ruin your debit card or

513
00:37:03,920 --> 00:37:11,480
your gym membership prying something open they have special Prime cards for

514
00:37:07,839 --> 00:37:13,640
that are we done seriously okay some

515
00:37:11,480 --> 00:37:22,119
someone has to take this home today and iron on hand with a wrench repair person

516
00:37:18,560 --> 00:37:25,240
badge first one to say Luke's last name

517
00:37:22,119 --> 00:37:27,960
there you are get on up here you're a

518
00:37:25,240 --> 00:37:33,960
certified repair man now or or woman you have long hair I couldn't tell no I'm

519
00:37:29,680 --> 00:37:36,720
just kidding it's a beard hey hey ladies

520
00:37:33,960 --> 00:37:39,760
can have a beard too and that's okay y y yeah I don't know I was reading some

521
00:37:37,920 --> 00:37:45,480
article some actress was upset by Hollywood beauty standards Sheed wa her

522
00:37:42,800 --> 00:37:48,000
mustache yeah and then I was I was I brought it up in some conversation like

523
00:37:46,880 --> 00:37:52,359
no it's obviously not cuz there's a beard my mom was like I shave I was like

524
00:37:50,040 --> 00:37:58,560
oh there you go makes sense today you learned yeah next up actually yeah I we

525
00:37:56,240 --> 00:38:03,280
started recommending dollar sh sh Club as well it makes sense all right we got

526
00:38:00,640 --> 00:38:07,640
Google's Project sunroof so do you want to cover this one I'm so excited by this

527
00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:10,560
this is so cool okay so what Google's planning to do they're doing it in three

528
00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:15,680
different cities right now I don't remember what ones so GG but there's not

529
00:38:13,000 --> 00:38:19,160
Vancouver unfortunately only the stat yes they're only in the states the idea

530
00:38:17,440 --> 00:38:24,200
is that they're using data from Google Maps to figure out basically uh what the

531
00:38:22,040 --> 00:38:29,079
sun value is of your house I just came up with that word but basically um how

532
00:38:26,440 --> 00:38:32,599
much of your roof will Sun for how long and how much power and money that will

533
00:38:31,079 --> 00:38:36,160
save you if you get solar panels installed so that you can figure out

534
00:38:34,319 --> 00:38:41,160
things like should you get solar panels installed it'll also help you figure out

535
00:38:37,520 --> 00:38:44,160
how much that will cost um so it can

536
00:38:41,160 --> 00:38:45,880
survey companies in your area and it can

537
00:38:44,160 --> 00:38:49,319
actually recommend ones to you tell you how much it'll cost to install tell you

538
00:38:47,720 --> 00:38:53,920
how long it's going to be until you've paid off your investment um tons of

539
00:38:51,599 --> 00:38:57,960
stuff so basically the idea is taking a lot of the confusion out of getting

540
00:38:55,520 --> 00:39:00,720
solar panels installed on your house and making it a lot easier in terms of

541
00:38:59,359 --> 00:39:05,520
barrier of entry for people making it make a lot more sense so it does all the hardcore math for you and it solves all

542
00:39:03,920 --> 00:39:10,440
the complicated problems which I think is great because solar panels are

543
00:39:07,680 --> 00:39:13,839
cool if we get the strata to accept it I really want to put solar panels on our

544
00:39:11,720 --> 00:39:18,040
roofe so but we had have to get the strata to yeah strata is going to have

545
00:39:15,520 --> 00:39:23,040
to be down for it um I'm really not sure how that works we're new Str don't

546
00:39:20,119 --> 00:39:28,240
really and we just did this so I don't know how many good books we're in right

547
00:39:24,359 --> 00:39:30,280
now I have no idea how many emails

548
00:39:28,240 --> 00:39:34,440
we we we took kind of an ask forgiveness not permission approach to the Meetup

549
00:39:32,119 --> 00:39:39,280
today so for those of you who weren't here live who are watching we had

550
00:39:36,960 --> 00:39:45,280
probably as many as probably about 300 people here at one point like it was

551
00:39:42,599 --> 00:39:52,079
bananas you guys think more than 300 okay well we had a ton of people like we

552
00:39:50,200 --> 00:39:55,839
had a lineup for the garage sale down the block we had a lineup for tours of

553
00:39:54,599 --> 00:40:00,480
the office which we are going to continue to do after the show today that

554
00:39:58,319 --> 00:40:05,640
was down to the lineup for the garage sale um so we have no idea how stoked

555
00:40:03,640 --> 00:40:08,640
they are on us fortunately we've already got the stratus approval for my big

556
00:40:07,200 --> 00:40:13,599
Linus Media Group sign that's going to be going on the front of the building I

557
00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:15,880
picked up the permit for that on you a

558
00:40:13,599 --> 00:40:19,040
permit for that yeah yesterday Strat I picked up the no we had we had a city

559
00:40:17,400 --> 00:40:23,400
permit too oh my goodness yeah we had to get approval from the strata then we had to get a permit that could make sense

560
00:40:21,880 --> 00:40:27,800
cuz it could fall off the building like Strat are so frustrating but like I mean

561
00:40:26,040 --> 00:40:31,200
fortunately they wouldn't let us cover the Windows we need to cover the Windows

562
00:40:29,520 --> 00:40:35,839
for like lighting they said that we have to get approval they didn't say no they

563
00:40:34,240 --> 00:40:40,440
just said that we have to bring it up at a meeting okay the fact that you have to

564
00:40:38,720 --> 00:40:44,640
bring it up on a meeting to put covers inside your own building is not the good

565
00:40:42,720 --> 00:40:49,720
news is that we're occupying three of the eight units in this building which

566
00:40:46,640 --> 00:40:52,480
gives us an awful lot of

567
00:40:49,720 --> 00:40:56,319
votes that's helpful yeah that's pretty good oh that's we just got to make sure

568
00:40:53,960 --> 00:41:02,079
we don't piss off literally everyone which we might have just done so um so

569
00:40:59,400 --> 00:41:08,599
let's go ahead and uh his own yes awesome thank you so much I have been

570
00:41:04,000 --> 00:41:11,599
talking so much today and those you

571
00:41:08,599 --> 00:41:13,800
that's awesome I know this man sorry

572
00:41:11,599 --> 00:41:21,359
keep going so it's finally happened an actual

573
00:41:17,920 --> 00:41:24,000
fashion watch brand has gotten around to

574
00:41:21,359 --> 00:41:30,359
doing a smartwatch fossil unveils it's Intel powered Android Wear watch flat

575
00:41:26,720 --> 00:41:32,880
tire play into so let's uh so these are

576
00:41:30,359 --> 00:41:37,560
just some these are just some not not actually Android wear these are typical

577
00:41:34,599 --> 00:41:45,319
Fossil watches all right bippity boppity there it is

578
00:41:40,480 --> 00:41:48,680
so um yeah it kind of looks like a Moto

579
00:41:45,319 --> 00:41:50,319
360 it super looks like a Moto 360 yeah

580
00:41:48,680 --> 00:41:56,520
well I said kind of because I'm a generous person I'm not yeah Moto 360 so

581
00:41:53,960 --> 00:41:59,240
basically it's it's kind of shinier also it has like

582
00:41:57,839 --> 00:42:03,000
beving and and hopefully the battery lasts longer I mean the thing about a

583
00:42:00,960 --> 00:42:08,800
watch it's Android is that there's really not a whole lot you can do with

584
00:42:06,160 --> 00:42:14,760
it with Android Weare yeah you can go square or you can go round cuz like

585
00:42:12,640 --> 00:42:18,319
saying watch in general is not really f a lot you can do with the mechanical you

586
00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:24,720
could have a rubber strap or like a leather one or like maybe it could come

587
00:42:21,119 --> 00:42:28,200
with two straps W and you could change

588
00:42:24,720 --> 00:42:31,000
them out W so I mean I get it it's not

589
00:42:28,200 --> 00:42:34,760
really that different um so they also showed off some some other stuff a

590
00:42:32,599 --> 00:42:39,960
fitness band a semi- smartwatch and then the fully fledged Smartwatch um I think

591
00:42:37,920 --> 00:42:45,839
the technology has to has to continue to progress a little

592
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:50,760
bit I mean Samsung and LG are both showing off transparent OLED displays

593
00:42:48,400 --> 00:42:56,119
that are capable of in the neighborhood of

594
00:42:51,760 --> 00:42:58,880
50% plus or minus transparency I mean I

595
00:42:56,119 --> 00:43:04,079
think that's when going to capture a lot of people when you can put a really thin

596
00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:09,280
transparent display over top of what is otherwise a beautifully crafted

597
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:13,200
mechanical watch that's when you're going to get a lot of attention and I

598
00:43:11,079 --> 00:43:16,760
know there's that one company that's done it that everyone always links us

599
00:43:14,920 --> 00:43:21,160
when we say this every time and they're like not

600
00:43:18,680 --> 00:43:24,680
good just they're just not you're not feeling charitable today no but it's

601
00:43:23,040 --> 00:43:28,720
true I don't know like I'm feeling charitable because uh Google's sunroof

602
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:33,720
thing is fantastic I'm not feeling Charle because that watch is

603
00:43:31,079 --> 00:43:37,319
trash it is though look it up everyone that buys one is like yeah this thing is

604
00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:40,240
terrible I wish I didn't waste my money so I don't want to help other people

605
00:43:38,720 --> 00:43:46,559
waste their money fair enough doesn't seem it's not really what we do no so

606
00:43:42,920 --> 00:43:49,200
there you go um there is no word on the

607
00:43:46,559 --> 00:43:53,760
hardware inside the Android Smartwatch from fossil the battery life pricing or

608
00:43:51,599 --> 00:43:57,960
the release time frame one thing that I will say is if they don't have an always

609
00:43:56,480 --> 00:44:01,400
on display it's getting a negative review from me

610
00:43:59,680 --> 00:44:05,319
if it gets one at all it might just get a mention on W show hey screwed up yet

611
00:44:04,240 --> 00:44:10,240
another one what if it's one of the transparent ones and the screen is off

612
00:44:07,920 --> 00:44:16,280
unless you do a I'm okay with that I'm totally okay with that um I mean for me

613
00:44:13,160 --> 00:44:18,480
the big thing is just I want to be able

614
00:44:16,280 --> 00:44:22,760
to see and I know I made that awful joke in my Apple Watch review which ended up

615
00:44:21,079 --> 00:44:27,599
even more Awkward because of Ed's editing on that that was just that was

616
00:44:25,200 --> 00:44:32,880
pretty cringe right there but it is a perfectly valid point the time when I

617
00:44:29,960 --> 00:44:38,000
realized that motion gestures were ridiculous was when I was laying on my

618
00:44:35,319 --> 00:44:41,839
back and my son was playing a game with me like he was going for a daddy ride

619
00:44:40,440 --> 00:44:48,599
and I was like oh I wonder what time it is and I was using the Apple watch and I

620
00:44:45,599 --> 00:44:51,319
couldn't look up the time because you

621
00:44:48,599 --> 00:44:56,040
have to be upright and do it like this like this repeat after me like this to

622
00:44:54,200 --> 00:45:00,599
see the time no that's ridiculous it's that that motion

623
00:44:58,319 --> 00:45:04,119
reminded me of that super old school uh Apple like 1984

624
00:45:02,440 --> 00:45:12,000
commercial when they're walking through and they're all watching the screen and stuff they're becoming what they

625
00:45:08,079 --> 00:45:13,559
hated so that's what I need to see and

626
00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:18,200
uh that's pretty much all there is to it now I'd like to do something a little

627
00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:23,000
bit special and I'm actually going to kick Luke off the show for a bit here

628
00:45:20,720 --> 00:45:27,960
normally we do well not quite no no don't go anywhere okay okay uh well no

629
00:45:25,319 --> 00:45:32,359
don't sit down either okay so normally when we want to get like

630
00:45:30,319 --> 00:45:37,880
questions or comments from the audience we take to Twitter but the audience is

631

650
00:46:53,079 --> 00:46:58,520
about your company I'm listening what about your company do you like the most

651
00:46:56,920 --> 00:47:05,440
and what do you like the least all right thank you okay you can go um the thing I

652
00:47:02,599 --> 00:47:11,960
like the most is working with a team of people that I

653
00:47:08,079 --> 00:47:13,680
handpicked um it's really it it it is

654
00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:20,200
the reason yeah let's just get the people s y thank you Luke it's it's

655
00:47:16,440 --> 00:47:23,119
really different from working somewhere

656
00:47:20,200 --> 00:47:31,079
where you know your new subordinate or your new peer or your new boss might be

657
00:47:26,960 --> 00:47:33,520
selected by someone else and you know

658
00:47:31,079 --> 00:47:39,599
I'm not saying that my years at NC were bad in any way I learned so much and I

659
00:47:37,040 --> 00:47:44,599
am incredibly grateful to everyone from the president of the company up there

660
00:47:41,200 --> 00:47:46,760
who by the end of my time at NC I

661
00:47:44,599 --> 00:47:51,559
reported to directly I'm grateful to everyone from him down to you know the

662
00:47:49,359 --> 00:47:55,680
guys in the warehouse that made sure that my orders got counted correctly and

663
00:47:54,000 --> 00:47:58,880
labeled correctly and shipped to the customers on time like

664
00:47:57,440 --> 00:48:03,000
it was such an amazing learning experience but lonus Media Group the

665
00:48:01,280 --> 00:48:11,160
greatest thing about it is the people here um every one of them is handpicked

666
00:48:06,760 --> 00:48:14,240
by me so I have no one to blame but

667
00:48:11,160 --> 00:48:16,240
myself if it doesn't work out and we

668
00:48:14,240 --> 00:48:21,000
have an incredible team here absolutely world class I mean I think the results

669
00:48:18,760 --> 00:48:25,559
speak for themselves since lius Tech tips has gone Indie and is under the

670
00:48:23,520 --> 00:48:31,720
banner of lonus Media Group our growth has gone like this so yeah that's what I

671
00:48:29,720 --> 00:48:36,040
love about lonus Media Group I think the worst thing about it is the can I help

672
00:48:33,839 --> 00:48:39,520
you cently they're great other than throwing things at me um I mean that's

673
00:48:38,280 --> 00:48:43,559
another great thing about it we have a really great work Dynamic U you know

674
00:48:41,520 --> 00:48:47,960
people I see a lot of I see a lot of comments like lonus is the worst boss

675
00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:53,680
ever he's such a jerk he's such a troll you guys got to understand I get that

676
00:48:50,920 --> 00:48:59,480
back from these guys this is the kind of company where you can legitimately shoot

677
00:48:56,359 --> 00:48:59,960
your B with a Nerf gun in the head and

678
00:48:59,480 --> 00:49:07,040
it's cool don't go get a gun right

679
00:49:07,040 --> 00:49:14,040
now um the worst thing about it I think is probably the hours I thought that

680
00:49:11,799 --> 00:49:19,559
compared to my job as a product manager it couldn't get any worse but it it is

681
00:49:17,160 --> 00:49:23,240
worse I mean I a lot of people think YouTube's easy and you just like stand

682
00:49:21,799 --> 00:49:29,079
in front of a camera for 10 minutes and then you just throw it up on the internet send it used to be easy I of

683
00:49:26,960 --> 00:49:34,160
necessity that's why I did unboxings cuz they were easy um and I could just I

684
00:49:31,880 --> 00:49:39,280
could I could do an unboxing in one take no problem a lot of the time not always

685
00:49:37,240 --> 00:49:45,480
sometimes I broke things or whatever but but the point is is

686
00:49:41,559 --> 00:49:47,680
that because we've tried to really amp

687
00:49:45,480 --> 00:49:53,960
up what we're doing in every possible way every additional body that we add

688
00:49:50,480 --> 00:49:56,760
here is all about increasing quality

689
00:49:53,960 --> 00:50:01,599
making what we're doing more and better so um the hardest part is is how much

690
00:49:58,720 --> 00:50:06,319
work it is all right what's your name my name is Daniel two years ago you guys

691
00:50:03,520 --> 00:50:10,799
were working out of a house L Media Group just got started and now you're

692
00:50:08,440 --> 00:50:15,799
here what do you see year two maybe three in the future wow it's a it's a

693
00:50:12,760 --> 00:50:18,440
great question and go away

694
00:50:15,799 --> 00:50:22,720
um that's a great question and it's one that unfortunately I don't have a

695
00:50:20,160 --> 00:50:28,359
crystal ball that is amazing enough to answer because if you had asked me 2 and

696
00:50:25,520 --> 00:50:32,720
a half years ago when we started this um when we were working out of the garage

697
00:50:29,880 --> 00:50:37,640
at my house if you'd asked me where I saw lonus Media Group 2 and a half years

698
00:50:35,040 --> 00:50:42,480
from now uh well actually no I I didn't even think about that I thought about

699
00:50:39,160 --> 00:50:44,720
five years and five years when it was

700
00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:48,280
just three of us it was me Luke and Ed and if you asked me five years I would

701
00:50:46,200 --> 00:50:54,319
have said well I mean five maybe six people and like you know we'll do better

702
00:50:52,520 --> 00:50:57,680
unboxings and we'll have like more channels we'll kind of do unboxings of

703
00:50:56,400 --> 00:51:02,319
tech and then maybe we'll do like unboxings of like tools or cars or other

704
00:51:00,040 --> 00:51:07,960
things like we'll have like the unboxing Network that would have been my vision

705
00:51:05,680 --> 00:51:12,559
uh here we are 2 and a half years in we have either 10 or 11 people uh we're in

706
00:51:11,319 --> 00:51:18,280
an actual studio um we don't do unboxings anymore

707
00:51:15,440 --> 00:51:23,559
really and our new channels are things like Channel Super Fun where we're

708
00:51:20,240 --> 00:51:25,559
pitting dildos against each other one

709
00:51:23,559 --> 00:51:30,920
one against one it's a race to the Finish Line like I who can predict that

710
00:51:28,000 --> 00:51:35,319
stuff my title to dildo engineer no too late truth is Stranger Than

711
00:51:33,760 --> 00:51:39,480
Fiction sometimes and if you'd asked me when we moved into the the house Studio

712
00:51:38,119 --> 00:51:45,480
I'd have told you that was easily going to last us 5 years we made it for two

713
00:51:42,680 --> 00:51:49,200
and that place was bursting at the seams what's your name Andrew all right Andrew

714
00:51:47,760 --> 00:51:54,680
what's your question how would you compare the the work style at the old

715
00:51:52,359 --> 00:52:00,799
house office compared to your new office so uh thank you away and um I don't mean

716
00:51:59,559 --> 00:52:06,359
go away you can stay close enough to hear the answer no Andrew come back no

717
00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:08,720
no I mean no don't sit down right there's

718
00:52:11,400 --> 00:52:17,280
fine um so the workflow is not yet

719
00:52:15,319 --> 00:52:22,119
established here we're I'm going to have a video coming really soon about the way

720
00:52:19,640 --> 00:52:26,000
that we're going to handle footage and transcoding it and people who went on

721
00:52:24,559 --> 00:52:30,760
the tour with me might know a little bit about this

722
00:52:27,559 --> 00:52:36,000
uh the workflow in terms of shooting is

723
00:52:30,760 --> 00:52:37,480
going to be way tidier much much tidier

724
00:52:36,000 --> 00:52:41,680
I I don't understand you just supposed to throw it or give it to someone else oh free

725
00:52:43,359 --> 00:52:51,760
shirt I'm looking over here it's going over there oh am I doing more SW

726
00:52:49,880 --> 00:52:56,880
shirt um so the main thing I expect in the new

727
00:52:54,680 --> 00:53:01,720
workflow is organization because in the past we had one place where like

728
00:53:00,160 --> 00:53:07,400
sometimes I was actually testing hardware and then I was filming like the

729
00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:10,200
main video and then I'd have to get my crap out of there and Brandon had to

730
00:53:08,799 --> 00:53:14,240
move his cameras in and shoot b-roll there was just no room for anything so

731
00:53:12,319 --> 00:53:20,079
we're going to actually have things go from inventory with a real system for

732
00:53:16,200 --> 00:53:22,200
tracking that to testing to shooting to

733
00:53:20,079 --> 00:53:28,440
b-roll and then back to inventory I expect organization that's the biggest

734
00:53:23,799 --> 00:53:28,440
difference awesome all right next

735
00:53:29,359 --> 00:53:35,880
sup welcome to the W show thank you um

736
00:53:33,000 --> 00:53:39,440
hi everybody my name is Maxwell um about a month and a half ago you guys got to

737
00:53:37,200 --> 00:53:44,079
about 8,600 viewers and you're like oh my God we're almost over 9,000 and then

738
00:53:42,240 --> 00:53:47,559
you guys said well this is going to be a great idea like how about we have a huge

739
00:53:46,119 --> 00:53:51,960
surprise show when we get over 9,000 viewers and then you guys ended up

740
00:53:49,160 --> 00:53:54,920
getting to like 10K a couple weeks ago and I didn't find out what the idea was

741
00:53:53,280 --> 00:53:59,920
that I've been waiting for so what was the great idea for over 9,000 viewers on

742
00:53:56,680 --> 00:54:01,400
a l show I don't know hey Luke did we

743
00:53:59,920 --> 00:54:06,480
ever figure out what we were going to do for overnight he asked me this before we came in so I was wondering if you knew

744
00:54:04,240 --> 00:54:11,599
no I don't remember we apparently said that I don't remember saying it at all

745
00:54:08,079 --> 00:54:14,000
we apparently said that and I have no

746
00:54:11,599 --> 00:54:14,000
that is

747
00:54:14,799 --> 00:54:21,079
so maybe but do we have any

748
00:54:18,359 --> 00:54:26,880
no are we totally forgot thank you for asking we can do it

749
00:54:22,760 --> 00:54:28,960
though I think I might know but

750
00:54:26,880 --> 00:54:33,559
but it might have been it okay I'll just I'll just tell

751
00:54:31,280 --> 00:54:37,799
you it might have been like blonde spiky wigs like super saiyan yes I think that

752
00:54:36,319 --> 00:54:42,119
might have been the idea but I'm not sure okay so sorry we failed you that's

753
00:54:40,359 --> 00:54:45,280
all right all right who's next I think we didn't expect it to happen very

754
00:54:43,440 --> 00:54:49,319
quickly no I really I don't know if I ever expected it to happen but wo's kind

755
00:54:47,720 --> 00:54:55,480
of been like that like the first time we broke a thousand viewers I was like

756
00:54:51,839 --> 00:54:57,040
whoa and now we're sitting at 8,900 for

757
00:54:55,480 --> 00:55:01,440
a Twitter Blitz well sort of Twitter are you even on

758
00:54:58,960 --> 00:55:06,040
Twitter barely bar there you go all right what's up um I was wondering which

759
00:55:03,680 --> 00:55:09,240
of your employes you think works the hardest wow

760
00:55:09,839 --> 00:55:14,680
me that's pretty good that's

761
00:55:15,760 --> 00:55:21,920
all Brandon it's Brandon it's Brandon

762
00:55:18,920 --> 00:55:24,200
it's Brandon could be Brandon could be

763
00:55:21,920 --> 00:55:28,400
Brandon could be could be Luke could be Nick you know what everyone here works

764
00:55:26,960 --> 00:55:36,400
really hard if they didn't they wouldn't last um period we had one guy who lasted

765
00:55:32,720 --> 00:55:39,760
like two weeks and uh he fell asleep at

766
00:55:36,400 --> 00:55:43,319
work once and stuff and so our culture

767
00:55:39,760 --> 00:55:46,839
is one of work extremely hard play

768
00:55:43,319 --> 00:55:49,640
extremely hard um but everyone here

769
00:55:46,839 --> 00:55:56,599
Works incredibly hard who's next I hope I last two week it's a two

00:56:19,160 --> 00:56:26,559
event where we had three projectors 3D

778
00:56:23,599 --> 00:56:33,319
projectors running in NVIDIA surround powered by a couple of GTX

779
00:56:29,280 --> 00:56:35,799
590s that was ba and I only probably had

780
00:56:33,319 --> 00:56:42,280
like 30 people show up for that so I kind of gave up on

781
00:56:38,520 --> 00:56:45,200

790
00:57:21,880 --> 00:57:27,559
just get the W bus and go across Canada yeah we need to we totally need a w bus

791
00:57:26,160 --> 00:57:33,760
as long as we don't accidentally put a g on the end then the

792
00:57:31,319 --> 00:57:37,599
Wang yeah the Wang bus okay what do you got uh where do you see lest Tech tips

793
00:57:35,599 --> 00:57:41,000
in five years where do I see okay great question go away um and let's get the

794
00:57:39,720 --> 00:57:46,760
next one right in there let's get these going quick so lus Tech tips in five

795
00:57:45,200 --> 00:57:51,160
years I don't even know about five years but I'll do two years okay um

796
00:57:49,640 --> 00:57:57,520
so YouTube I have seen many YouTube

797
00:57:54,760 --> 00:58:02,839
personalities uh com and go uh throughout my my like I've never really

798
00:58:00,240 --> 00:58:06,680
done the explosive exponential growth thing but I've also never leveled off

799
00:58:05,200 --> 00:58:10,880
it's always been like a slow and steady wins the race and I've I've seen a lot

800
00:58:08,799 --> 00:58:16,319
of guys that I used to look up to and wonder how I could ever be as big as

801
00:58:12,839 --> 00:58:18,520
them I've I've seen a lot of those guys

802
00:58:16,319 --> 00:58:25,400
fall behind in terms of their their YouTube audience anyway um and I think

803
00:58:23,359 --> 00:58:30,160
there are a lot of different reasons it's happened you know YouTube has

804
00:58:27,119 --> 00:58:32,559
changed the audience has changed uh the

805
00:58:30,160 --> 00:58:39,799
technology has changed everything is always changing and the old formula is

806
00:58:36,440 --> 00:58:43,160
not going to work forever and that is

807
00:58:39,799 --> 00:58:45,839
why even though it was a huge risk we

808
00:58:43,160 --> 00:58:51,720
killed unboxings we stopped doing unboxings that was our bread and butter

809
00:58:48,039 --> 00:58:53,960
it was the single most viewed and

810
00:58:51,720 --> 00:58:58,880
therefore profitable thing that we did as a company and here I was I took this

811
00:58:56,440 --> 00:59:02,160
enormous leap of faith I was like okay I'm tired of this that means the

812
00:59:00,640 --> 00:59:06,520
audience must be tired of it if I'm tired of it so let's let's do it let's

813
00:59:03,880 --> 00:59:11,319
kill it all we do now is reviews and projects and and showcases so so we

814
00:59:09,319 --> 00:59:17,319
killed unboxings we switch to almost entirely reviews at that time we are

815
00:59:14,160 --> 00:59:19,640
actually in the middle of yet another

816
00:59:17,319 --> 00:59:24,200
reinvention right now um some of you might have noticed we are going to be

817
00:59:22,799 --> 00:59:29,559
gradually we're still going to do reviews but we are GR gradually making

818
00:59:27,520 --> 00:59:33,039
it not all about the reviews I see him I have a preview of the video right in

819
00:59:30,799 --> 00:59:38,400
front of me we are we are gradually moving away from just reviews to more

820
00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:44,400
projects and like crazy over-the-top you know showcases and

821
00:59:40,720 --> 00:59:46,680
stuff and more of making Linus Tech tips

822
00:59:44,400 --> 00:59:54,760
like this this is like the dream for me making Linus Tech tips a show about

823
00:59:51,079 --> 00:59:59,520
technology rather than a technology

824
00:59:54,760 --> 01:00:02,920
unboxing or view show so I don't want it

825
00:59:59,520 --> 01:00:06,160
to live within the confines of this is

826
01:00:02,920 --> 01:00:09,079
what we do I want us to just do whatever

827
01:00:06,160 --> 01:00:16,440
it is and I want people to watch it and enjoy it and that is why I have expanded

828
01:00:13,000 --> 01:00:19,160
our staff and grown the company the way

829
01:00:16,440 --> 01:00:24,000
that I have because if it was still just me or just me and a camera person

830
01:00:21,920 --> 01:00:29,079
something like scrapyard Wars is impossible because that takes a big crew

831
01:00:26,680 --> 01:00:34,280
of people to make happen it takes an enormous amount of time stuff like new

832
01:00:31,599 --> 01:00:38,880
office Vlog which kind of accidentally turned into kind of a reality show that

833
01:00:37,359 --> 01:00:43,599
that everyone loved would have been impossible stuff like Luke wants to do

834
01:00:41,240 --> 01:00:50,079
where we DIY solar panels on the roof of the office would be impossible if we

835
01:00:46,720 --> 01:00:54,280
didn't have our own paid C camera crew

836
01:00:50,079 --> 01:00:56,520
on staff in the office every day so you

837
01:00:54,280 --> 01:01:01,680
know it's it's it's so cliche but I really want lonus Tech tips

838
01:00:59,359 --> 01:01:07,480
to be a technology show the same way that Top Gear is a car show it's not a

839
01:01:04,119 --> 01:01:09,760
car show it's just a show it's well not

840
01:01:07,480 --> 01:01:14,480
anymore it's anything but but but what it was was an entertaining show with

841
01:01:12,160 --> 01:01:18,400
great personalities and the cars were happy to be along for the ride so that's

842
01:01:16,640 --> 01:01:22,599
what I want this to be and I think that the group that we've built here and the

843
01:01:21,119 --> 01:01:28,920
the the workflow that we've built here will enable us to do that and that's what I want L Tech tips to be what can I

844
01:01:26,720 --> 01:01:32,520
do for you lus why are there no fire PES in the new place there are no fire PES

845
01:01:30,880 --> 01:01:37,200
because it was hard enough to get our safety inspection passed with a handrail

846
01:01:35,359 --> 01:01:42,119
on that stupid staircase let alone a fire pole on the outside of it so uh

847
01:01:40,599 --> 01:01:48,000
what's your favorite series that you've ever done my personal favorite great

848
01:01:45,480 --> 01:01:51,720
question um wow my personal

849
01:01:52,720 --> 01:02:00,079
favorite it's got to be scrapyard Wars um

850
01:01:56,400 --> 01:02:02,920
it's a lot of fun to shoot um it's a lot

851
01:02:00,079 --> 01:02:09,440
of fun to watch like even though cuz I'm in a lot of our videos duh uh but

852
01:02:05,559 --> 01:02:12,119
scrapyard Wars is so fun for me to watch

853
01:02:09,440 --> 01:02:18,160
because it's like it's like the Highlight Reel of that enormous amount

854
01:02:14,960 --> 01:02:21,119
of time that I spent on it for me and I

855
01:02:18,160 --> 01:02:25,079
get to enjoy the struggle and the Triumph that's going on opposite me that

856
01:02:23,520 --> 01:02:31,640
I'm completely oblivious to the whole time so it's a lot of fun for me to

857
01:02:28,000 --> 01:02:33,039
watch what would you have done if Darren

858
01:02:31,640 --> 01:02:39,440
died Darren who's Darren specifically I know

859
01:02:35,839 --> 01:02:41,880
a lot of oh Darren the 3D printer well

860
01:02:39,440 --> 01:02:46,240
Darren did die fortunately Luke resurrected

861
01:02:43,440 --> 01:02:51,760
him so uh we're changing his name to Lazarus lafrenier and uh wait no Darren

862
01:02:49,720 --> 01:02:56,559
we're changing to Lazarus Luke's name we're changing to something hopefully

863
01:02:53,279 --> 01:02:58,559
unoffensive so

864
01:02:56,559 --> 01:03:03,480
let's just move on from that that question what can I do for you nice

865
01:03:00,119 --> 01:03:06,119
shirt thanks uh in the little time that

866
01:03:03,480 --> 01:03:10,039
you get to have now they can see your shirt in the little free time that you

867
01:03:08,039 --> 01:03:14,480
get to have what is your favorite thing to do um I have very little time for

868
01:03:12,279 --> 01:03:21,359
anything in the little time that I have my kids are the light of my life so yep

869
01:03:18,960 --> 01:03:26,279
my kids are awesome that's uh that's what I do when I'm not

870
01:03:22,880 --> 01:03:28,520
here and sometimes I eat

871
01:03:26,279 --> 01:03:33,279
how are you today I am fantastic thank you for asking um my question is about

872
01:03:31,039 --> 01:03:37,559
ant venom actually really what were your thoughts on when he said he was going to

873
01:03:35,200 --> 01:03:45,400
come and then his flight being cancelled I was super bummed out because ant venom

874
01:03:40,920 --> 01:03:46,599
is like such an amazing lonus Tech tips

875
01:03:45,400 --> 01:03:51,799
fan I don't know if you guys know ant Venom's got like two million bazillion

876
01:03:48,599 --> 01:03:54,359
subscribers on YouTube big deal he was

877
01:03:51,799 --> 01:04:00,880
gonna show up and I was like wow that would be super cool to have like other

878
01:03:58,200 --> 01:04:05,680
huge content creators show up at our Fan event as like a huge bonus for the

879
01:04:03,000 --> 01:04:09,319
people here and just for me to shoot the breeze with because I living in

880
01:04:07,920 --> 01:04:13,760
Vancouver there's not a lot of huge YouTubers here and huge streamers here

881
01:04:11,960 --> 01:04:20,440
it's it's it's a pretty desolate place there are a couple but like if I want

882
01:04:17,160 --> 01:04:22,520
to yeah if I want to like hang out with

883
01:04:20,440 --> 01:04:27,440
guys that are that are absolutely huge and guys that are like totally in my

884
01:04:25,160 --> 01:04:32,559
head space ant venom is one of the few that exists out there and what I mean by

885
01:04:29,520 --> 01:04:36,520
totally in my head is it's funny because

886
01:04:32,559 --> 01:04:37,880
Gamers and like it technophiles they're

887
01:04:36,520 --> 01:04:41,720
kind of like they're like the VIN diagram right like there's the overlap

888
01:04:40,160 --> 01:04:47,559
but a lot of the time the guys building the Beast gaming rigs are not actually

889
01:04:44,000 --> 01:04:49,680
hardcore Gamers like me and the guys

890
01:04:47,559 --> 01:04:55,000
that are the hardcore gamers are not that techsavvy they just buy a pre-built

891
01:04:51,640 --> 01:04:56,839
machine in a send right so an Venom

892
01:04:55,000 --> 01:05:02,079
actually took our whole room water cooling concept amped it up a notch and

893
01:05:00,400 --> 01:05:07,359
has his gaming machine on a separate floor of his house with his Radiator in

894
01:05:04,520 --> 01:05:12,240
the basement but he did it up right he took everything we learned every mistake

895
01:05:09,839 --> 01:05:18,880
we made and he published a video on his gaming Centric channel of his Recreation

896
01:05:15,599 --> 01:05:20,720
of whole room water cooling which works

897
01:05:18,880 --> 01:05:25,079
it actually gets the heat out of the room successfully because he didn't use

898
01:05:22,799 --> 01:05:28,640
a huge array of copper tubing to do it he's just got a a nice short run right

899
01:05:26,720 --> 01:05:32,640
through the floor he used a plastic Reservoir a lesson that we learned about

900
01:05:31,079 --> 01:05:38,039
anti-corrosive additives and how they don't always work so his video is badass

901
01:05:36,520 --> 01:05:43,559
I was hoping for him to be here and hang out on the W show but hey the effort

902
01:05:41,480 --> 01:05:48,440
totally counts and a we're sorry you couldn't be here all right you're up oh

903
01:05:46,799 --> 01:05:53,720
so how scary was it to take a chance and start your own business doing what you do it was mortifying um I mean this is

904
01:05:51,680 --> 01:06:00,680
something I'm I'm not sure if I've talked about before but lus Media Group

905
01:05:57,119 --> 01:06:02,880
almost completely ran out of money uh 4

906
01:06:00,680 --> 01:06:09,119
months in so I don't know if you guys are super business savvy but the way

907
01:06:06,640 --> 01:06:17,160
that it works is even if you have a sponsor like Intel or whoever especially

908
01:06:14,079 --> 01:06:20,720
a big sponsor they don't expect to

909
01:06:17,160 --> 01:06:23,720
prepay for things so they expect to

910
01:06:20,720 --> 01:06:25,200
reach an agreement sign a contract like

911
01:06:23,720 --> 01:06:31,200
okay we're going to have you mention our product in the first 30 seconds of your

912
01:06:27,119 --> 01:06:33,839
video 10 times in the month of you know

913
01:06:31,200 --> 01:06:40,119
February and then once you've executed the contract they expect what's called

914
01:06:36,160 --> 01:06:41,760
net terms so that is they pay after

915
01:06:40,119 --> 01:06:45,440
completion that gives them time to process it in accounting and get you

916
01:06:43,839 --> 01:06:50,160
know the necessary signatures and all that stuff and I get it but it means

917
01:06:47,599 --> 01:06:56,359
that even though lonus Media Group was working hard to obtain sponsors and and

918
01:06:52,960 --> 01:06:57,960
all that stuff all without selling out I

919
01:06:56,359 --> 01:07:01,240
mean that's the thing is sellout is a word that gets thrown around a lot but

920
01:06:59,680 --> 01:07:06,960
it has a meaning that people don't understand sellout doesn't mean you make

921
01:07:03,240 --> 01:07:09,559
money we make money but sellout means

922
01:07:06,960 --> 01:07:16,640
making money by compromising your values so we have never taken money from Blue

923
01:07:14,279 --> 01:07:21,359
to review this microphone that will not happen we can take money from Blue to

924
01:07:19,559 --> 01:07:26,440
put their microphone in front of our camera while we host the W show that is

925
01:07:24,160 --> 01:07:32,839
sponsorship that is is a product placement that is completely separate we

926
01:07:29,359 --> 01:07:34,520
will give a bad review to a sponsor if

927
01:07:32,839 --> 01:07:40,039
they submit a product to us for a review we have to keep our content which has no

928
01:07:37,960 --> 01:07:46,039
value to our viewers and therefore no value to a future sponsor I mean even if

929
01:07:42,440 --> 01:07:48,799
I was a terrible person I can't sell out

930
01:07:46,039 --> 01:07:53,559
on a product review because I have to be smart enough to know that if my audience

931
01:07:51,400 --> 01:07:58,240
can be 10 years from now my audience could be 10 times the size then I should

932
01:07:56,000 --> 01:08:01,599
be able to get 10 times the sponsors but my audience isn't going to grow if I

933
01:08:00,000 --> 01:08:06,799
give you people bad advice about technology and tell you the wrong thing

934
01:08:04,039 --> 01:08:12,319
even if I was a terrible money money is the only important thing to me person I

935
01:08:08,880 --> 01:08:14,760
still wouldn't do it so we had to even

936
01:08:12,319 --> 01:08:18,239
though we ran out and we got sponsors you know it's harder if you're not

937
01:08:16,319 --> 01:08:23,080
willing to sell out because you have to be like look this guarantees you no

938
01:08:20,560 --> 01:08:29,839
special treatment nothing you get nothing other than the ad iing spot that

939
01:08:26,880 --> 01:08:34,319
we promise that's what you get that's it so we did it anyway it was hard work but

940
01:08:31,880 --> 01:08:39,920
we did it but I still had to wait anywhere from 30 to 120 days for my

941
01:08:38,759 --> 01:08:44,440
first paychecks aside from things like YouTube

942
01:08:42,640 --> 01:08:51,440
which roll in monthly but but isn't as much as you'd think and I and I and I

943
01:08:46,679 --> 01:08:53,199
took a risk um Luke and Ed both took a

944
01:08:51,440 --> 01:08:58,679
risk too they dropped out of their programs in school because I promised

945
01:08:56,319 --> 01:09:02,319
that I would get the money to pay them and support them and we'd make a real

946
01:09:00,199 --> 01:09:08,120
company out of this thing so they both went for it and I went for it and in

947
01:09:06,000 --> 01:09:12,920
April of the first year of lus Media Group we almost completely ran out of

948
01:09:10,159 --> 01:09:18,279
money like out like done like we were down to

949
01:09:15,480 --> 01:09:23,759
double digits in the account I didn't have another payroll and then the check

950
01:09:20,480 --> 01:09:25,920
started arriving so it was down to the

951
01:09:23,759 --> 01:09:29,520
wire for us it was terrifying the good news about what we were doing

952
01:09:27,679 --> 01:09:32,520
is at least I had a lot of Industry connections and that's another I

953
01:09:31,319 --> 01:09:37,040
mentioned this earlier on the show but I'll always be thankful for my time at

954
01:09:34,359 --> 01:09:42,040
NC for all the things I learned and I should have mentioned this all the

955
01:09:38,440 --> 01:09:43,880
amazing people I met many of whom like

956
01:09:42,040 --> 01:09:50,799
uh you know I really hope I don't miss anyone here but uh guys like Rick from

957
01:09:46,359 --> 01:09:52,880
Corsair that was Corsair was our first

958
01:09:50,799 --> 01:09:59,960
the first ones that ever wrote lonus Media Group Incorporated a check was

959
01:09:55,920 --> 01:10:01,280
Corsair um and and those guys those guys

960
01:09:59,960 --> 01:10:08,000
very special relationship that doesn't mean I won't give them a negative review or whatever um guys like uh fractal

961
01:10:05,600 --> 01:10:12,239
design were on board very early on Josh from fractal huge buddies you it doesn't

962
01:10:10,960 --> 01:10:18,800
mean I won't rip on their products if they suck um so those those early those

963
01:10:15,960 --> 01:10:21,560
early guys really helped us pull through what can I do for you what are you

964
01:10:20,159 --> 01:10:25,480
planning to print with your 3D printer that's actually practical okay the first

965
01:10:23,920 --> 01:10:30,520
practical thing you'll see printed is a shroud for our new router that is going

966
01:10:28,560 --> 01:10:35,040
to handle our new gigabit internet connection and it needs a cooling shroud

967
01:10:33,000 --> 01:10:39,000
because I built using standard components in a oneu case and we

968
01:10:37,440 --> 01:10:44,560
couldn't find a way to cool the CPU very well without that shroud which

969
01:10:42,080 --> 01:10:49,280
we hope works but we don't know yet hi there hi nice sunglasses we're

970
01:10:46,600 --> 01:10:54,560
sunglasses buddies well thank you uh is there anything you regret about getting

971
01:10:52,159 --> 01:10:57,520
your own company with lonus Media Group and going out on your own rather than

972
01:10:56,560 --> 01:11:05,600
through n um wow good question is there anything I

973
01:11:03,280 --> 01:11:10,480

974
01:11:07,280 --> 01:11:13,159

988
01:12:09,400 --> 01:12:15,719
what's up all right I got a serious question this okay all right um so about

989
01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:20,600
a year ago you uh had a guest host on doto uh doto from on data yeah yeah and

990
01:12:19,239 --> 01:12:27,400
uh I was wondering if there's anyone else like that that was like a huge a source of inspiration like you know what

991
01:12:24,880 --> 01:12:33,480
um actually that's a great that's a great question because this Sunday I am

992
01:12:29,960 --> 01:12:35,400
going down to chill with one of my main

993
01:12:33,480 --> 01:12:40,840
Inspirations when I was starting up on YouTube uh Chris pillo also known as

994
01:12:38,320 --> 01:12:46,760
Locker Nome is going to be hosting an event called vlogger Fair uh this

995
01:12:43,400 --> 01:12:48,920
weekend in Seattle so I will be on a

996
01:12:46,760 --> 01:12:53,719
panel down there on Sunday so I'll be doing two meetups within like 3 days

997
01:12:51,760 --> 01:12:58,199
which is kind of amazing um so I'll be down there just on the Sunday

998
01:12:55,760 --> 01:13:01,239
and hanging out with Chris and hope he's going to be super busy so hopefully I

999
01:12:59,520 --> 01:13:05,880
get some of his time uh but there's going to be some other guys there I think Barnacles and Jay's two cents are

1000
01:13:03,920 --> 01:13:10,920
showing up uh they're both they're both based in that area

1001
01:13:08,520 --> 01:13:15,920
um yeah no Chris was a huge inspiration for me because he was like pardon my

1002
01:13:13,480 --> 01:13:19,960
French he was like the [ __ ] when it came to Tech on YouTube when I was first

1003
01:13:18,000 --> 01:13:22,840
getting started no one no one could touch that guy and I didn't really

1004
01:13:21,360 --> 01:13:25,840
follow the phone guys like your John ringers and your soldier knows best and

1005
01:13:24,960 --> 01:13:33,360
uh like I didn't really follow that stuff so when it came to like computer tech it

1006
01:13:30,000 --> 01:13:35,520
was him so um yeah I've learned a lot

1007
01:13:33,360 --> 01:13:38,960
from from Chris over the years we've we've hung out a few times whether it's

1008
01:13:37,199 --> 01:13:44,520
at an airport on our way back from that AMD Hawaii event or whatever else and uh

1009
01:13:41,760 --> 01:13:48,480
yeah he's a huge inspiration for me hi do you see lonus Media Group opening up

1010
01:13:46,280 --> 01:13:53,239
more YouTube channels in the future yes let's play uh no let's plays probably I

1011
01:13:51,040 --> 01:13:57,760
think it's a very crowded space um I think there's a lot of let's players out

1012
01:13:54,679 --> 01:14:01,719
there that a great job thank you

1013
01:13:57,760 --> 01:14:04,280
um but and if anything I think I would

1014
01:14:01,719 --> 01:14:09,280
be surprised if it's Tech related I think between Linus Tech tips and Tech

1015
01:14:06,639 --> 01:14:14,600
quickie we can handle you know your shows and your reviews and we can handle

1016
01:14:12,159 --> 01:14:20,000
your rapid fire information basically like repository of facts about crap to

1017
01:14:17,560 --> 01:14:25,560
do with tech um and I think Channel Super Fun has been a really uh amazing

1018
01:14:24,280 --> 01:14:33,199
in terms of the growth that we've experienced and be um really fun for us

1019
01:14:29,960 --> 01:14:35,600
to make and so I think our next project

1020
01:14:33,199 --> 01:14:41,080
which may be sooner rather than later uh because Channel Super Fun is as big now

1021
01:14:39,159 --> 01:14:45,960
as Techquickie was when we started super fun so it may be sooner rather

1022
01:14:43,880 --> 01:14:50,440
than later but I think I'd be surprised if it's Tech related at all maybe sketch

1023
01:14:48,440 --> 01:14:54,199
comedy I think we've got a lot of really great characters here um you know maybe

1024
01:14:52,760 --> 01:15:00,000
something to do with toys which is what Channel Super Fun was supposed to be and

1025
01:14:56,520 --> 01:15:02,920
completely ended up not becoming at all

1026
01:15:00,000 --> 01:15:07,120
um is anyone else coming in for live Twitter

1027
01:15:04,320 --> 01:15:10,320
Blitz okay Luke come on back onto the show what's your favorite

1028
01:15:10,960 --> 01:15:16,320
color mine's red you don't even you made

1029
01:15:14,600 --> 01:15:22,159
that up on the spot uh okay this is a little known fact

1030
01:15:19,840 --> 01:15:26,800
because I'm always on about pink my favorite color is actually green

1031
01:15:25,239 --> 01:15:33,159
so there you go um should we do a oh we got to do the

1032
01:15:29,480 --> 01:15:35,960
Ashley Madison topic so more details uh

1033
01:15:33,159 --> 01:15:39,960
on the Ashley Madison hack so those of you who aren't familiar

1034
01:15:37,320 --> 01:15:46,239
ashleymadison.com is an is like a cheating site for married people and

1035
01:15:43,120 --> 01:15:48,120
they uh they were threatened they said

1036
01:15:46,239 --> 01:15:52,000
look we hacked into you we got all your user data including credit card

1037
01:15:49,719 --> 01:15:56,159
information and they were you can hack into me anytime although I'd prefer if

1038
01:15:53,960 --> 01:16:00,880
you didn't hack gentle this time please yes okay um we learned the first time

1039
01:15:58,679 --> 01:16:07,440
around that's not how you do that you gotta work into it so the hack is not

1040
01:16:04,239 --> 01:16:10,040
only real it's worse than we thought the

1041
01:16:07,440 --> 01:16:14,159
details are everywhere they basically said look if you don't pull down your

1042
01:16:11,880 --> 01:16:18,040
site we're going to leak all the data which included credit card information

1043
01:16:15,880 --> 01:16:21,679
now to be clear if you want to check on your significant other or whatever the

1044
01:16:20,080 --> 01:16:26,280
fact that they have an account is actually not meaningful I have an Ashley

1045
01:16:24,120 --> 01:16:31,520
Madison account as soon as we started reporting on the Ashley Madison thing

1046
01:16:28,239 --> 01:16:33,520
someone signed my email address up for

1047
01:16:31,520 --> 01:16:38,320
an Ashley Madison account I've heard I have one but I haven't seen the thing I

1048
01:16:35,719 --> 01:16:43,639
started getting newsletters I was like do people not do email verification

1049
01:16:41,040 --> 01:16:47,360
apparently not so that's a cool thing because it means that there aren't

1050
01:16:45,000 --> 01:16:51,199
necessarily 30 million cheats out there because anyone even someone who has no

1051
01:16:49,800 --> 01:16:55,520
idea they have an account can apparently have an account but they also leaked

1052
01:16:54,080 --> 01:16:59,639
credit card information so if you want to actually use the site

1053
01:16:57,480 --> 01:17:04,480
you need aedit card so if your credit card number in there you Ed the site yes

1054
01:17:02,719 --> 01:17:09,159
so it's taking a lot longer than we originally expected to find all the

1055
01:17:06,159 --> 01:17:11,199
people that were actually um using the

1056
01:17:09,159 --> 01:17:16,239
website but it is starting to happen like basically person by person it's

1057
01:17:13,280 --> 01:17:21,800
being leaked um like the the first tip off was when like B Obama at whatever.

1058
01:17:19,320 --> 01:17:27,719
goov was registered I was like that's not a thing no at all no that's like was

1059
01:17:25,080 --> 01:17:33,480
a lot of that so yeah he's in there for the same reason that my personal Hotmail

1060
01:17:30,440 --> 01:17:35,480
account which uh was leaked like three

1061
01:17:33,480 --> 01:17:40,520
years ago and I never touch except for certain things um like my Ashley Madison

1062
01:17:39,000 --> 01:17:46,440
account um so that account I logged into it at

1063
01:17:43,960 --> 01:17:50,400
some point and realized I had I think it was either 30 or 60 it was some multiple

1064
01:17:48,560 --> 01:17:55,960
of three thousand like daily Bible verse

1065
01:17:53,120 --> 01:18:01,679
newsletters sitting in it and I was like you got to be kidding me

1066
01:17:59,400 --> 01:18:07,159
so someone I think there are sites that email account oh I've had that

1067
01:18:03,920 --> 01:18:09,280
email daily emails yeah no not daily but

1068
01:18:07,159 --> 01:18:15,920
60,000 emails from the ones coming in Daily yeah yeah total and hot mails

1069
01:18:11,760 --> 01:18:18,280
filter can only like do so many at a

1070
01:18:15,920 --> 01:18:22,600
time so when I'd search for keywords and it's not as good as Gmail's filter like

1071
01:18:20,960 --> 01:18:27,120
like it's not as granular in terms of what you can block so I could only block

1072
01:18:24,560 --> 01:18:32,840
by like specific email address so if it's like info@ lighthous media that's

1073
01:18:30,120 --> 01:18:36,920
different from news at lighthous media which is different from admin at Life

1074
01:18:34,520 --> 01:18:40,360
House media and then it takes like 10 minutes to go through all you know

1075
01:18:38,920 --> 01:18:46,840
thousand of them because it can only do a page at a time like no I just want to

1076
01:18:43,960 --> 01:18:52,159
get rid of them allall it's like there couldn't be like why did you even need

1077
01:18:49,480 --> 01:18:55,440
to use that email um oh I use it as like my password recovery for certain things

1078
01:18:54,000 --> 01:19:01,639
cuz actually to dig through find something

1079
01:18:57,719 --> 01:19:04,159
Hotmail has pretty sick um twostep yeah

1080
01:19:01,639 --> 01:19:10,120
so my Hotmail account this is an interesting behind the- scenes story my

1081
01:19:05,920 --> 01:19:13,320
hot mail account was what saved my all

1082
01:19:10,120 --> 01:19:16,560
of my other accounts when my YouTube

1083
01:19:13,320 --> 01:19:20,320
channel Got Hijacked a few years ago so

1084
01:19:16,560 --> 01:19:22,400
they didn't get my hot mail account and

1085
01:19:20,320 --> 01:19:27,440
that the notifications that I was getting as they were trying to get in

1086
01:19:24,840 --> 01:19:32,080
was what alerted me to the need to change all my other passwords so they

1087
01:19:30,000 --> 01:19:36,760
went for the hot mail account early and got locked out of everything else so

1088
01:19:34,639 --> 01:19:40,520
that's why I like my hot mail account yeah yeah also there's a few like people

1089
01:19:39,320 --> 01:19:44,560
who only know how to reach me there I've had it for like 15 years so it's one of

1090
01:19:42,600 --> 01:19:49,480
those things and that's a tip is to link your emails to a certain degree y it's

1091
01:19:46,760 --> 01:19:53,400
actually a really good idea um so basically there's 10 gigs of Ashley

1092
01:19:51,280 --> 01:19:57,960
Madison info out there it's pretty easy to find uh and they dumped another 20

1093
01:19:56,199 --> 01:20:03,880
gigs onto the dark web in addition to the earlier 10 gigs for a total of

1094
01:20:00,320 --> 01:20:06,760
30 um yeah so one of my favorite

1095
01:20:03,880 --> 01:20:13,600
statistics um with there's thousands of fake female profiles and about 90 to 95%

1096
01:20:09,600 --> 01:20:18,360
of the actual users are male yeah we

1097
01:20:13,600 --> 01:20:19,920
suck yeah wow we're bad at things yeah

1098
01:20:18,360 --> 01:20:25,719
and we should probably feel bad for being bad at things

1099
01:20:22,320 --> 01:20:26,920
yep all right so what else did we tease

1100
01:20:25,719 --> 01:20:34,719
because I think we're already it's already almost 6:30 popcorn time getting

1101
01:20:29,840 --> 01:20:38,600
attacked yes so if you use popcorn time

1102
01:20:34,719 --> 01:20:42,080
um and you wanted another reason why you

1103
01:20:38,600 --> 01:20:44,360
probably shouldn't movie studio sues

1104
01:20:42,080 --> 01:20:47,880
individual Popcorn Time users for infringement so for those of you who

1105
01:20:46,159 --> 01:20:54,639
aren't familiar with popcorn time I've tried it it's really really good like

1106
01:20:51,840 --> 01:21:00,600
it's the Netflix of piracy you basically basically just stream from Torrance and

1107
01:20:56,480 --> 01:21:04,960
I was like wow this works really really

1108
01:21:00,600 --> 01:21:07,960
well subtitles are all like a drop down

1109
01:21:04,960 --> 01:21:10,239
I was like all that crap that like when

1110
01:21:07,960 --> 01:21:16,560
you're watching a Blu-ray like it blows me away how crappy the Blu-ray

1111
01:21:12,960 --> 01:21:18,719
experience still is why can't they fix

1112
01:21:16,560 --> 01:21:23,600
this why do I have to sit through two minutes of blah blah blah don't copy

1113
01:21:20,880 --> 01:21:30,280
this why do I have to go back to the menu every time why do I have to all

1114
01:21:26,560 --> 01:21:31,880
these things just shut up they do really

1115
01:21:30,280 --> 01:21:35,639
suck it's very very annoying when the experience is worse for people that are

1116
01:21:33,480 --> 01:21:39,920
paying for it okay here's a million dooll idea for the movie studios why do

1117
01:21:37,719 --> 01:21:46,360
I have to come up with this crap the first Blu-ray okay in the however many

1118
01:21:43,239 --> 01:21:48,560
discs set should have fewer episodes of

1119
01:21:46,360 --> 01:21:53,000
the show on it and it should have a lower quality compressed version of the

1120
01:21:50,960 --> 01:21:56,880
entire season so that I don't have to change my freaking Blu-ray

1121
01:21:55,080 --> 01:22:02,560
when I want to watch a different episode cuz I don't give a crap I'm watching

1122
01:21:58,840 --> 01:22:05,719
Family Guy Do I need more pixels

1123
01:22:02,560 --> 01:22:08,239
no million dooll idea why do I have to

1124
01:22:05,719 --> 01:22:13,639
come up with it peeking sorry sorry sorry headphone users all the peeking so

1125
01:22:11,560 --> 01:22:17,960
it just it blows me away how much better the piracy experience is but the thing

1126
01:22:16,280 --> 01:22:24,679
that people need to understand about popcorn time is even if you're a

1127
01:22:20,600 --> 01:22:26,840
Shameless pirate you should not use it

1128
01:22:24,679 --> 01:22:32,360
because you don't know what you're seeding anything you watch sits and

1129
01:22:29,679 --> 01:22:35,480
seeds in the background until you reboot your computer at least that's how it

1130
01:22:33,840 --> 01:22:41,520
used to work I I actually haven't looked into it since probably still how it

1131
01:22:38,120 --> 01:22:44,120
works so Popcorn Time users you could be

1132
01:22:41,520 --> 01:22:48,520
getting it pretty good if you use Popcorn Time a lot restart your computer

1133
01:22:46,239 --> 01:22:52,040
very infrequently because it could mean a lot of different Studios Netflix and

1134
01:22:50,280 --> 01:22:57,080
chill what are you doing I'm talking to Twitch chat oh a lot of different and

1135
01:22:54,800 --> 01:23:01,880
chill Studios could be coming after you and you don't even realize that you've

1136
01:22:59,120 --> 01:23:07,360
shared so many different movies cuz that's the thing is downloading is one

1137
01:23:04,080 --> 01:23:12,040
thing Distributing is a whole other

1138
01:23:07,360 --> 01:23:14,000
thing so is that it for wo I think so
