necessarily mean much on Twitch lately yeah we had some issues a little

00:00:23.880 --> 00:00:28.800
while ago that yeah I've had issues on my private stream too lately like you

00:00:27.359 --> 00:00:35.800
you can be sending everything perfectly but it'll be like oh well some server that you're not even going to is down so

00:00:32.119 --> 00:00:37.800
you're screwed it's like what yeah what

00:00:35.800 --> 00:00:41.399

that's a complete lie and it's not on the calendar one it's on my calendar because

00:01:40.119 --> 00:01:46.520
I manually put everyone's birthdays on my calendar cuz I will not remember them

00:01:43.399 --> 00:01:49.479
if I don't even like my mom my brother

00:01:46.520 --> 00:01:55.479

00:01:52.439 --> 00:01:58.920
remembered fantastic um and it's also

00:01:55.479 --> 00:02:03.240

the Internet because let's face it it's not always easy to hop on a plane like

00:02:26.640 --> 00:02:32.720
some of our incredible viewers did I

00:02:29.640 --> 00:02:36.120
actually had three people drop off with

00:02:32.720 --> 00:02:38.680
me today some currency from their native

00:02:36.120 --> 00:02:46.159
lands uh we had one gentleman from Germany uh we had someone from Argentina

00:02:42.599 --> 00:02:48.360
and then I had someone from I oh oh crap

00:02:46.159 --> 00:02:53.959
uh what is where is this one from that's the Argentina one that one's Norway yes

00:02:50.840 --> 00:02:57.640

and then Sebastian who actually shares

00:03:04.400 --> 00:03:12.239
his first name with my last name even the same spelling which is uh which is

00:03:09.040 --> 00:03:15.599
unusual so we had an incredible turnout

00:03:12.239 --> 00:03:18.159
today some people hailing from BC um who

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

00:03:20.280 --> 00:03:27.040
time from Winnipeg how they managed to

00:03:23.480 --> 00:03:29.519
time that I'm not not completely certain

00:03:27.040 --> 00:03:33.959
so uh pretty pretty unbelievable there guys so we've got a bunch of great

00:03:30.680 --> 00:03:35.799
topics for you today I think um I've got

00:03:33.959 --> 00:03:41.680
call outs now yep the Ashley Madison hack has got some serious updates uh and

00:03:39.439 --> 00:03:47.000
we'll get to that later on on the show also a research lab has accidentally

00:03:44.319 --> 00:03:52.640
created a longer lasting battery how' they do that well the same way hey oh

00:03:50.000 --> 00:03:55.599
here Silly Putty also an accident there you go I believe they were trying to

00:03:53.760 --> 00:03:59.840
make some kind of better rubber or something Google project sunroof which

00:03:58.000 --> 00:04:03.920
is Google's way to try to help every body get solar panels and also Popcorn

00:04:02.040 --> 00:04:07.760
Time users are finally getting attacked by various companies oh that was a

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

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

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

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

00:04:20.680 --> 00:04:27.360
working though I want to go to the

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

00:04:30.680 --> 00:04:35.440
there will be something cheap I think there's still like a Titan black or two

00:04:33.840 --> 00:04:39.759
I actually did hear about that and there's like there's like only so many

00:04:37.520 --> 00:04:44.280
people that still have cash so i' suspect they're taking it away for not a

00:04:41.280 --> 00:04:47.880
whole lot of it well if you can take

00:04:44.280 --> 00:04:49.639
like $2 I think I'm good other than that

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

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

00:04:55.680 --> 00:05:04.520
right into our first topic of the day sure Google makes it own $200 wireless

00:05:01.880 --> 00:05:08.639
router onhub so the original tic are you posting in the twitch chat sure okay you

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

00:05:10.039 --> 00:05:17.280
ahead and uh share that with you guys here I think I'm clicking news item

00:05:14.960 --> 00:05:21.840
nothing is happening where is my where is my window screen

00:05:19.880 --> 00:05:29.120
capture over this boom uh maybe just but well let's

00:05:25.919 --> 00:05:31.199
just but I got I got this i got this

00:05:29.120 --> 00:05:37.960
this show sometimes works today The Show Must Go On yes it's really not working

00:05:34.720 --> 00:05:41.520
is anyways uh let's we go let's cover

00:05:37.960 --> 00:05:43.520
Luke with it h Get Wrecked Luke yes uh

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

00:05:45.319 --> 00:05:52.000
few other things people thought it looks kind of similar to the E yeah it looks

00:05:49.919 --> 00:05:56.840
like it could be like the echo home interactivity device yes but it's super

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

00:05:58.880 --> 00:06:04.639
of a Funny Story story for uh everyone here and I guess everyone who's watching

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

00:06:08.039 --> 00:06:13.440
got myself a Us address to ship it to

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

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

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

00:06:25.319 --> 00:06:31.360
just sit in front of it and go Echo tell

00:06:28.919 --> 00:06:34.120
me about Le birs well it's material quality isn't really that great but I

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

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

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

00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:53.280
you uh it doesn't work in Canada it literally only works in the states so

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

00:06:55.720 --> 00:07:00.639
mobile device and then connect to it over Wi-Fi to actually set it up the

00:06:59.080 --> 00:07:05.599
problem with that is I could I could like proxy out my router do whatever but

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

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

00:07:12.919 --> 00:07:18.400
it wouldn't be a proper Fair review either because it's designed to work in

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

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

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

00:07:28.479 --> 00:07:35.720
stupid things that we we waste our money on and that never even turned into a

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

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

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

00:07:45.919 --> 00:07:51.680
work out here's some cool news though the onhub we are definitely going to be

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

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

00:07:59.720 --> 00:08:05.800
routers anymore well the thing that a week the thing that I'm interested in

00:08:04.240 --> 00:08:09.680
about this is a couple of things number one is why Google thinks they need a

00:08:07.479 --> 00:08:13.879
router at all yeah what they believe they bring to the table other than

00:08:11.360 --> 00:08:18.680
sitting between you and all of your possible internet traffic that they can

00:08:16.479 --> 00:08:22.599
get whatever it is that they want to get out of that um hopefully they're

00:08:21.120 --> 00:08:27.280
bringing some kind of a value proposition to the table so I want to

00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:29.520
find out what it is yeah it doesn't

00:08:27.280 --> 00:08:33.800
really seem extremely Apparent at first number two is I want to have a look at

00:08:31.360 --> 00:08:38.519
the performance because the only thing that jumped into my mind that they might

00:08:36.440 --> 00:08:43.279
think that they add to the table is Affordable performance and $200 is still

00:08:41.120 --> 00:08:49.000
an expensive router but if they can handle full gigabit well yeah which is a

00:08:46.800 --> 00:08:54.480
service they offer to their customers then maybe there's a value to it so I

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

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

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

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

00:09:10.440 --> 00:09:16.320
a huge fan of anything but the best

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

00:09:19.480 --> 00:09:26.480
is almost as good as it

00:09:22.720 --> 00:09:30.079
gets this whole show is as good as it

00:09:26.480 --> 00:09:32.800
gets but it's not the Enterprise version

00:09:30.079 --> 00:09:37.839
so we've got some stuff from xclaim which is a daughter company of ruckus so

00:09:35.880 --> 00:09:42.440
if we had Ruckus access points which their top ofth line goes for like a

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

00:09:44.800 --> 00:09:51.040
like four of those in our office um if we had those we probably could have

00:09:48.760 --> 00:09:58.279
handled everyone's Wi-Fi today but we're all on one midgrade unit today because

00:09:55.560 --> 00:10:01.360
my data terminations are not done in this side of the building so I'm

00:09:59.839 --> 00:10:05.399
supposed to have one in each corner of the building sort of like it's more

00:10:04.040 --> 00:10:08.560
complicated than that but I'm supposed to have at least two at the front here

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

00:10:10.959 --> 00:10:17.240
in range but um I want to see what

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

00:10:18.720 --> 00:10:24.720
antennas inside um which would be used

00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:28.519
for beam forming and narrowing in on where exactly the devices are and and

00:10:26.600 --> 00:10:33.040
hopefully getting better signal out of it I mean most companies just do it so

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

00:10:34.959 --> 00:10:39.880
can't turn me around on this then um

00:10:38.240 --> 00:10:45.040
there's a few things that I actually really like from like a family it dude

00:10:43.160 --> 00:10:49.680
perspective so if you're the IT guy for like your immediate family and like your

00:10:46.680 --> 00:10:51.760
grandma and stuff because uh one of the

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

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

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

00:11:04.880 --> 00:11:10.920
her house necessarily so like if if you should go visit your grandma but like if

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

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

00:11:16.760 --> 00:11:21.800
of cool being able to remotely fix things easily hang out with the internet

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

00:11:23.120 --> 00:11:31.240
the internet all the time exactly yeah I never use Google Hangouts for it though

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

00:11:33.279 --> 00:11:38.079
looking for a router and doesn't really know Network stuff and lives super far

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

00:11:40.639 --> 00:11:48.560
find out if it's easy Everyone is always promising me this network attached

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

00:11:52.560 --> 00:11:59.480
never easy no and one thing that's confusing is they're like it's easier

00:11:56.399 --> 00:12:02.399
than 1 2 3core lowercase c lower lower

00:11:59.480 --> 00:12:06.839
case C capital F lowercase j lowercase p lowercase x what the hell is that that

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

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

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

00:12:18.600 --> 00:12:25.440
just copied the echo it looks exactly like the echo it

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

00:12:27.639 --> 00:12:33.959
their defense the echo basically just looks like that

00:12:31.920 --> 00:12:38.240
um sorry no well it does look like that

00:12:36.199 --> 00:12:43.760
dlink router but I was actually thinking of uh logitech's Ultimate Ears uh boom

00:12:41.560 --> 00:12:50.760
ah yeah yeah yeah so yeah it's like well ours has less

00:12:46.839 --> 00:12:53.360
mesh or something yeah that's totally

00:12:50.760 --> 00:12:58.760
different this is ours it's Unique it's new it also has networking capability we

00:12:55.920 --> 00:13:01.120
changed everything again it's a slightly different

00:13:01.920 --> 00:13:07.399
cylinder okay moving on all right so uh

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

00:13:10.480 --> 00:13:17.920
callus management practices so this article is from USA Today let's go ahead

00:13:15.760 --> 00:13:21.360
and uh drop the oh look at somebody's sponsor

00:13:20.160 --> 00:13:26.800
message something to do with weed whacking uh let's go ahead and drop the

00:13:23.680 --> 00:13:28.480
the article so uh some of the more

00:13:26.800 --> 00:13:32.199
memorable you can mow an entire lawn with a WeedWacker some of the more memorable

00:13:33.120 --> 00:13:40.279
anecdotes um I know that it was done once

00:13:37.399 --> 00:13:45.639
ever instead of weekly never mind

00:13:42.680 --> 00:13:50.279
continue uh so here are so so basically the question the article asks is can I

00:13:47.440 --> 00:13:53.880
continue to support Amazon with my money um and there are some anecdotes about

00:13:52.040 --> 00:13:57.399
you know working conditions at Amazon woman who had just lost a child in

00:13:55.279 --> 00:14:01.320
pregnancy was put on performance review for not giving her all to the company

00:13:59.120 --> 00:14:05.519
apparently emails are sent out at all hours miss the midnight email you get a

00:14:03.800 --> 00:14:09.000
text message a few minutes later asking why you haven't replied uh daily

00:14:07.639 --> 00:14:12.920
performance reviews are apparently standard giving opportunities the opport

00:14:11.320 --> 00:14:17.199
or giving employees the opportunity to chime in and tear down others

00:14:14.839 --> 00:14:22.000
anonymously so you know some of these things are kind of you know not too not

00:14:20.160 --> 00:14:27.360
too great so this was an expose done by the New York Times

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

00:14:29.800 --> 00:14:36.560
all times of night um in fact I have now

00:14:34.120 --> 00:14:42.759
officially sent out an email at night after hours asking for a reply at night

00:14:39.360 --> 00:14:45.880
after hours but it was for their benefit

00:14:42.759 --> 00:14:45.880
it was so that I wouldn't fire

00:14:46.279 --> 00:14:50.959
them I do a Hangouts at like 11:45

00:14:49.560 --> 00:14:54.519
yesterday it was but it was for their benefit I actually gave the employees a

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

00:14:56.560 --> 00:15:01.560
what they wanted before we did the garage sale today so and I do send

00:15:00.040 --> 00:15:06.360
emails all times of night but I generally don't expect a reply until

00:15:04.399 --> 00:15:13.360
until the morning um so Amazon's founder says he doesn't

00:15:10.639 --> 00:15:18.040
recognize the company described um refers to shockingly callous management

00:15:15.480 --> 00:15:23.759
practices and urges employees to contact HR or even him if any situation like

00:15:21.279 --> 00:15:28.800
that has occurred he says even if it's rare or isolated our tolerance for such

00:15:25.440 --> 00:15:30.240
a lack of empathy needs to be zero so at

00:15:28.800 --> 00:15:35.000
the very least they're dealing with it internally I mean this is something that

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

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

00:15:44.240 --> 00:15:51.600
like a major Amazon affiliate partner that's that's a that's a huge huge

00:15:50.000 --> 00:15:56.600
that's been a huge helper for us over the last couple of years since we

00:15:53.240 --> 00:15:59.040
started doing it um so for me to you

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

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

00:16:04.839 --> 00:16:12.720
use our affiliate code they've also got their um what's that program called uh

00:16:10.160 --> 00:16:15.600
smile right yes smile yeah Amazon smile where they'll actually contribute it's a

00:16:14.199 --> 00:16:19.399
smaller percentage then they give Affiliates I think you can do both can

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

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

00:16:25.399 --> 00:16:30.720
are looking for a way to contribute to a charity of your choice you can actually

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

00:16:32.160 --> 00:16:40.560
half% or something like that of your purchase value so you know they seem

00:16:36.800 --> 00:16:42.480
like pretty good guys it seemed like a

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

00:16:44.560 --> 00:16:50.560
everybody y yeah I mean there was that big uh there was that big thing with

00:16:48.319 --> 00:16:53.680
valve employees sort of you know blowing the lid off of you know you think it

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

00:16:55.360 --> 00:17:00.360
and like all this kind of stuff like this this happens from every company it

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

00:17:03.000 --> 00:17:08.000
degree but it's probably exaggerated when told in an

00:17:06.640 --> 00:17:16.039
interview yeah I mean you always need to get both sides of any story

00:17:11.280 --> 00:17:18.559
so okay uh Bitcoin could split in a

00:17:16.039 --> 00:17:22.600
debate over the currency's future but not Dogecoin right yeah we got to get

00:17:21.280 --> 00:17:29.840
hold on we got to get our buddy with the Dogecoin shirt pimping the Dogecoin come

00:17:25.120 --> 00:17:31.600
on come on Dogecoin is United Doge coin

00:17:29.840 --> 00:17:35.200
will never fail yes go up a little bit go up a

00:17:33.919 --> 00:17:38.080
little bit yeah there you go there you go yeah

00:17:42.280 --> 00:17:49.320
yeah uh so our article here is from the

00:17:45.799 --> 00:17:51.200
BBC I love that shirt man it's great go

00:17:49.320 --> 00:17:55.720
away it needs more doge meme on it though

00:17:52.840 --> 00:18:02.080
um so there you go remember guys physical Bitcoin coins are not act

00:17:59.440 --> 00:18:06.600
necessarily A Thing It's All Digital but some people did make them for laws and

00:18:04.200 --> 00:18:12.039
you know people gathered them or something um so basically what's going

00:18:09.159 --> 00:18:19.880
down is there's two sides to bitcoin so there's Bitcoin core the original

00:18:16.440 --> 00:18:22.120
and wait hold on a second okay so

00:18:19.880 --> 00:18:27.480
they're on the side of increasing wallet size Bitcoin XT which is a slight

00:18:24.360 --> 00:18:29.520
variation is lightweight wallets so

00:18:27.480 --> 00:18:35.559
bitcoin's Creator said in 10 it would be nice to keep the blockchain files small

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

00:18:37.840 --> 00:18:44.640
gets when I eventually implemented client only mode uh that won't matter

00:18:42.760 --> 00:18:48.880
much anymore but in recent months it's become clear that a small group of

00:18:47.080 --> 00:18:53.039
people have a radically different plan for Bitcoin and that's Bitcoin XT I mean

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

00:18:57.000 --> 00:19:02.880
of payment routing hubs or something

00:19:00.000 --> 00:19:09.320
along those lines a sharp Ryzen fees they want to end support for mobile P2P

00:19:05.360 --> 00:19:11.440
wallets and give up on unconfirmed

00:19:09.320 --> 00:19:15.159
transactions so it's unknown if people would migrate I mean I think the whole

00:19:13.120 --> 00:19:21.120
digital currency thing continues to be what it is

00:19:16.559 --> 00:19:24.640
it's unproven until except for Dogecoin

00:19:21.120 --> 00:19:28.360
proven except for Dogecoin in which we

00:19:24.640 --> 00:19:30.240
all trust yes um the limit of the

00:19:28.360 --> 00:19:35.440
current system will allegedly be reached by 2017 so we've still got a year plus

00:19:33.600 --> 00:19:40.840
to figure out how this is all going to go down but uh you

00:19:38.720 --> 00:19:46.880
know I guess the thing that I don't really see as any different really here

00:19:44.360 --> 00:19:51.760
is it's yet another competing cryptocurrency yeah so there you go and

00:19:49.799 --> 00:19:56.559
they're all failing and honestly Bitcoin hasn't really been doing that great

00:19:53.039 --> 00:19:58.240
lately either so I mean it had to settle

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

00:20:01.600 --> 00:20:07.679
ride long enough that people would actually

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

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

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

00:20:19.440 --> 00:20:25.120
did but doesn't work like that at companies well it's all so complicated

00:20:22.960 --> 00:20:30.720
because then that would be personal income to you which then you're respons

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

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

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

00:20:41.360 --> 00:20:50.080
it's just easier to not I mean

00:20:44.919 --> 00:20:53.000
honestly I I hash got wrecked by the

00:20:50.080 --> 00:20:58.280
Bitcoin gold rush because back when I was working at ncx like I had access to

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

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

00:21:07.320 --> 00:21:15.840
when Bitcoins were pretty easy to mine and it was just taking off and I

00:21:12.440 --> 00:21:18.240
actually went and I set up a mining rig

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

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

00:21:24.799 --> 00:21:30.279
wouldn't have been paying for Hardware wouldn't have been paying for

00:21:27.880 --> 00:21:34.720
electricity even and could have mined myself a whack ton of Bitcoins cuz I had

00:21:32.600 --> 00:21:39.559
probably a dozen to two dozen graphics cards and test benches to match could

00:21:37.480 --> 00:21:43.679
have just filled that crap up like before people started you know covering

00:21:41.840 --> 00:21:51.919
walls in their garages with Bitcoin mining Rigs and uh I like I like got

00:21:49.039 --> 00:21:56.320
like a bad stick of RAM in the test bench or something and like it something

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

00:21:58.960 --> 00:22:04.840
cuz he's right it was it was right before the first big boom where it

00:22:02.880 --> 00:22:08.400
jumped up to like what was it 250 bucks or something so they were still worth

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

00:22:11.080 --> 00:22:17.400
I could have probably made tens and tens of thousands of dollars like actually so

00:22:15.240 --> 00:22:19.880
I don't reject Bitcoin because I'm bitter

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

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

00:22:28.240 --> 00:22:33.600
it I'm just clearly shortsighted it's

00:22:31.640 --> 00:22:36.919
cool it's just yeah I think cryptocurrency will totally be a thing

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

00:22:38.919 --> 00:22:46.159
that some more Forward Thinking companies are at least trying to adapt

00:22:43.880 --> 00:22:50.720
their laws to account for it um others are just completely ignoring it we'll

00:22:47.679 --> 00:22:53.200
see how that goes for them but

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

00:22:55.799 --> 00:23:02.360
am ignoring them even more than usual

00:22:59.159 --> 00:23:06.480
everyone's posting salt emojis it's cuz

00:23:02.360 --> 00:23:08.840
you're oh me it makes a ton of sense yes

00:23:06.480 --> 00:23:13.880
it does thanks for that twitch chat every single time I'm like you know I

00:23:12.240 --> 00:23:21.080
haven't been paying enough attention to Twitch chat let's give twitch chat some

00:23:17.360 --> 00:23:23.400
love they make me regret it every time

00:23:21.080 --> 00:23:23.400
every

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

00:23:30.840 --> 00:23:41.440
already it's sitting right there you were ready the one time I'm

00:23:36.799 --> 00:23:44.760
ready research lab goof results in four

00:23:41.440 --> 00:23:47.200
times longer lithium ion battery working

00:23:44.760 --> 00:23:50.840
life so some scientists at singua University in Beijing and the

00:23:48.960 --> 00:23:55.600
Massachusetts Institute of Technology in Boston have been working on techniques

00:23:52.880 --> 00:24:00.799
to extend the working life of lithium ion batteries now to be clear this

00:23:57.799 --> 00:24:05.279
particular research is not to make your

00:24:00.799 --> 00:24:07.600
phone last for you know 3 or 4 days this

00:24:05.279 --> 00:24:12.279
particular technology is to make the battery last for enough recharge cycles

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

00:24:17.640 --> 00:24:23.679
what happened is they were working on making the anodes of the battery more

00:24:22.000 --> 00:24:29.600
durable because that's the part that decays the fastest um and that's why

00:24:27.120 --> 00:24:35.080
after a few hundred charge you see a really sharp drop off and all of a

00:24:31.480 --> 00:24:37.440
sudden you know it's 2:00 and you're at

00:24:35.080 --> 00:24:42.160
you know 40% battery life that's why that happens oh and there's a train

00:24:40.440 --> 00:24:46.449
rude so

00:24:47.240 --> 00:24:54.640
rude thank you than I wonder what that sounds like twitch we can hear you

00:24:53.000 --> 00:24:59.120
everything is good oh this was for you I was supposed

00:24:57.159 --> 00:25:06.760
to throw it at you oh no this is mine

00:25:02.679 --> 00:25:09.279
okay yay that was to yeah you armed us

00:25:06.760 --> 00:25:15.320
both that's weird all right so basically a batch of

00:25:13.039 --> 00:25:20.760
anodes was left under chemical treatment for several hours more than they should

00:25:18.240 --> 00:25:26.320
have completely by accident and remember guys when you're doing lab work you're

00:25:23.120 --> 00:25:29.320
often working with chemicals and like

00:25:26.320 --> 00:25:31.840
engineering like pre reengineering

00:25:29.320 --> 00:25:36.559
sample grade Hardware that is unbelievably expensive to produce I mean

00:25:34.279 --> 00:25:42.200
you guys have no idea even something as simple and stupid as a computer case and

00:25:39.600 --> 00:25:47.039
I don't mean computer cases are stupid I mean they're made of materials we

00:25:44.080 --> 00:25:53.159
basically understand you got a plastic bezel you got your steel chassis you

00:25:50.000 --> 00:25:55.240
fold it up pretty much right I mean

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

00:25:56.880 --> 00:26:07.200
to completely re-engineer new a new compound so the stuff they're working

00:26:01.880 --> 00:26:10.440
with is expensive to to screw up a batch

00:26:07.200 --> 00:26:12.440
could cost hundreds or maybe thousands

00:26:10.440 --> 00:26:17.159
or even tens of thousands of dollars depending on what they're working on so

00:26:14.760 --> 00:26:21.679
instead of throwing them away you know someone probably got a slap on the wrist

00:26:19.559 --> 00:26:27.679
but they decided to test them and the results were great four times more

00:26:24.520 --> 00:26:28.919
durable than the current best available

00:26:27.679 --> 00:26:34.799
technology so they've been working on using aluminum in preference to graphite it

00:26:32.399 --> 00:26:38.919
expands and contracts more so in effect these cells let me get this right they

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

00:26:41.960 --> 00:26:47.559
just need to make sure they can just fold the metal to be very clear they

00:26:45.039 --> 00:26:50.840
can't just injection mold the plastic and then fold the metal and then fold

00:26:48.799 --> 00:26:57.120
the metal on the other side all right cool uh so

00:26:54.159 --> 00:27:01.600
basically so by soaking it in sulfuric acid and titanium oxy sulfate which

00:26:59.720 --> 00:27:05.279
replaces the aluminum oxide from the aluminum being exposed I don't know if

00:27:03.440 --> 00:27:09.120
you guys know this aluminum rust is white and it oxidizes almost immediately

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

00:27:11.520 --> 00:27:17.960
clear coat it you can actually make a very efficient mirror out of aluminum

00:27:16.039 --> 00:27:21.799
very interesting stupid fact that no one cares about uh but the reason it always

00:27:20.080 --> 00:27:27.360
looks like rubbish is because it oxidizes almost immediately just from

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

00:27:29.600 --> 00:27:38.159
conductive titanium oxide coating effectively now which provided exactly

00:27:34.000 --> 00:27:41.320
the desired results completely by

00:27:38.159 --> 00:27:43.279
accident very very cool so epic awesome

00:27:41.320 --> 00:27:48.960
stuff that guy instead of getting fired got a promotion hoay maybe you got fired and

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

00:27:50.399 --> 00:27:56.640
I've promoted you at some point Y now we have a pretty flat from firstand

00:27:54.799 --> 00:28:03.840
experience that it's awesome it's awesome uh so LG's new Nexus 5 has

00:28:00.799 --> 00:28:07.799
leaked I guess Google has heard our

00:28:03.840 --> 00:28:10.720
cries about the Nexus 6 not being an

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

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

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

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

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

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

00:28:35.399 --> 00:28:39.240
us

00:28:39.240 --> 00:28:46.600
don't um to be fair though I don't even like phones that are that

00:28:43.519 --> 00:28:48.360
huge I what is what is let me see like

00:28:46.600 --> 00:28:52.000
my G3 which is not on me cuz it's charging is like borderline too large

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

00:28:55.720 --> 00:29:00.480
Z3 sorry neither of us are you said g G3

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

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

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

00:29:11.080 --> 00:29:17.440
a tweet from our our main man over at

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

00:29:20.480 --> 00:29:25.679
do you really work at MKBHD isn't that

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

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

00:29:58.480 --> 00:30:02.640
to be down with that because everything on your

00:30:02.679 --> 00:30:08.880
phone it's ours good point all right all

00:30:06.440 --> 00:30:11.399
right all maybe they don't want me to sell it because they want to keep

00:30:09.919 --> 00:30:16.960
harvesting my maybe that's what's special about it just for Marquez he was

00:30:13.480 --> 00:30:21.240
like it's the I'll review the new Nexus

00:30:16.960 --> 00:30:24.480
5 but you can't have my data I want it

00:30:21.240 --> 00:30:27.519
right on the phone not for

00:30:24.480 --> 00:30:30.159
sale this is only mine speaking of not

00:30:27.519 --> 00:30:37.080
for sale spots on our show are for

00:30:32.559 --> 00:30:40.159
sale y if you're squar space yay build

00:30:37.080 --> 00:30:43.000
the beautiful yes thank you that is

00:30:40.159 --> 00:30:45.960
their slogan for the last time okay I have to make sure that every single

00:30:44.360 --> 00:30:50.480
person that ever watches the W show knows I should just say it as the

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

00:30:51.640 --> 00:30:58.600
build the beautiful so when Squarespace isn't even a sponsor you're just going

00:30:54.720 --> 00:31:02.080
to go and do it

00:30:58.600 --> 00:31:03.639
okay so Squarespace if you guys are

00:31:02.080 --> 00:31:07.840
watching and I'm pretty sure you are our Squarespace contact legit watches the

00:31:05.480 --> 00:31:12.799
show which I discovered when we had that phenomenally embarrassing situation

00:31:10.440 --> 00:31:17.039
where Luke told me his mom's site was hosted on

00:31:13.799 --> 00:31:19.360
Squarespace so we had the entire Wan

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

00:31:22.519 --> 00:31:28.440
like dog hosting or some stupid thing

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

00:31:30.919 --> 00:31:38.399
it's some kind of animal that doesn't work hard enough

00:31:36.000 --> 00:31:43.600
so God super unhappy and they they were watching and

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

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

00:31:49.000 --> 00:31:53.279
beautiful thing they should make it build it more beautiful but

00:31:54.360 --> 00:31:58.919
the so I mean that is it in a nutshell

00:31:57.360 --> 00:32:01.720
squares space build it beautiful they're all about people making beautiful

00:32:00.440 --> 00:32:06.639
websites and putting them on the Internet with their tools and their

00:32:04.399 --> 00:32:10.840
website hosting it comes in affordable plans all the way up to pretty darn

00:32:08.480 --> 00:32:15.159
beefy plans you pick from one of their templates you can make a Blog you can

00:32:12.559 --> 00:32:19.880
make a you know portfolio you can make oh I don't know an informational site

00:32:18.039 --> 00:32:24.120
about you know your company like lism Medi group.com where all these people

00:32:21.960 --> 00:32:28.480
found our address presumably to come and hang out with us at this live Meetup

00:32:26.559 --> 00:32:31.399
also there was a link in the Forum which is not a Squarespace site because they

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

00:32:38.320 --> 00:32:45.240
Bam um so pretty much that's all there is to

00:32:43.000 --> 00:32:48.760

00:33:14.919 --> 00:33:21.320
guides for disassembling and reassembling and fixing phones and

00:33:18.880 --> 00:33:25.120
tablets and computers and laptops which are technically computers and also

00:33:23.559 --> 00:33:29.840
phones and tablets are technically computers too I mean anything that

00:33:26.559 --> 00:33:35.200
computes is a computer my computer a a

00:33:29.840 --> 00:33:39.480
what a moment so this is their all new

00:33:35.200 --> 00:33:42.760
small business like toolbox thing so

00:33:39.480 --> 00:33:44.799
it's got their screwdriver set which is

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

00:33:46.960 --> 00:33:52.840
here and I'll show you guys that later then you'll probably have noticed that

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

00:33:54.440 --> 00:34:00.480
that way but sometimes you can't get enough torque so these ones Are all uh

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

00:34:02.159 --> 00:34:08.679
little bit more torque action there let's go ahead and uh what else we got

00:34:06.840 --> 00:34:12.679
in here they told me to familiarize myself with this kit before we started I

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

00:34:16.760 --> 00:34:24.879
anti-static mat that check this out so your wrist strap actually Clips right in

00:34:21.440 --> 00:34:26.720
there so you got a safe workstation no

00:34:24.879 --> 00:34:31.200
Tech tool kit is complete without a multimeter so you want to I mean we've

00:34:28.879 --> 00:34:36.040
used this stuff we've used stuff like this for even the most mundane thing

00:34:34.040 --> 00:34:41.679
like you don't have to be an electrical engineer to need a multimeter like uh

00:34:38.679 --> 00:34:43.119
EVGA uh had a like a Kingpin graphics

00:34:41.679 --> 00:34:47.280
card that we were overclocking and we were like are these voltage adjustments

00:34:45.440 --> 00:34:51.040
even working are we even running the right BIOS for this some dude bought it

00:34:49.280 --> 00:34:56.079
that graphics card someone bought it we sold it today nice all right so we were

00:34:53.599 --> 00:34:59.800
able to use the multimeter to validate that we got the ln2 bio correctly and

00:34:58.359 --> 00:35:03.480
that the voltage was actually adjusting so that's cool uh what the devil is this

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

00:35:06.200 --> 00:35:10.800
glue and yes so these are fantastic you

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

00:35:13.440 --> 00:35:20.160
screen or whatever it gets hot enough to melt the adhesive and make it easier to

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

00:35:21.720 --> 00:35:28.800
probably cooking it this the prot tech tool kit has every bit under the sun

00:35:26.320 --> 00:35:34.880
your Tri Wings your security Torx is your your triangle bits you can take

00:35:32.040 --> 00:35:41.200
apart pretty much anything with this puppy we've got the screen and lens

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

00:35:43.359 --> 00:35:48.960
dangerous to go the magnetic project mat we've already shown this before cuz this

00:35:47.560 --> 00:35:53.720
is the one that I used when I did the iMac disassembly cuz there were like

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

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

00:35:58.800 --> 00:36:05.920
it's magnetic what else is in here they have everything in here suction cups for

00:36:03.440 --> 00:36:11.720
pulling screens off of heavy screens off of things without dropping them or like

00:36:08.119 --> 00:36:12.760
slicing yourself open repair Manifesto

00:36:11.720 --> 00:36:17.800
oh that's cute okay well that's more of a swag

00:36:15.000 --> 00:36:22.240
item cleaning cloth other more rugged microfiber cleaning cloth like a a

00:36:20.160 --> 00:36:25.920
textured one and a non-textured one a puff thing for sticking in your eye and

00:36:24.480 --> 00:36:30.119
drying it out whenever you need your eyes to be dry because you too much or

00:36:28.319 --> 00:36:36.520
for dusting things you know whatever cleaning brush as well as one

00:36:33.280 --> 00:36:38.319
of their handy dandy you know slice the

00:36:36.520 --> 00:36:42.079
adhesive that's between the thing that you can't get at more prying tools

00:36:40.720 --> 00:36:46.560
extras for the ones that come in the Protech tool kit how many freaking

00:36:44.480 --> 00:36:50.839
things are in here A bunch of opening picks they're kind of like guitar picks

00:36:48.160 --> 00:36:58.760
but special for opening more pry tools more pry

00:36:54.240 --> 00:36:58.760
tools more pry tools

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

00:37:03.920 --> 00:37:11.480
your gym membership prying something open they have special Prime cards for

00:37:07.839 --> 00:37:13.640
that are we done seriously okay some

00:37:11.480 --> 00:37:22.119
someone has to take this home today and iron on hand with a wrench repair person

00:37:18.560 --> 00:37:25.240
badge first one to say Luke's last name

00:37:22.119 --> 00:37:27.960
there you are get on up here you're a

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

00:37:29.680 --> 00:37:36.720
just kidding it's a beard hey hey ladies

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

00:37:37.920 --> 00:37:45.480
article some actress was upset by Hollywood beauty standards Sheed wa her

00:37:42.800 --> 00:37:48.000
mustache yeah and then I was I was I brought it up in some conversation like

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

00:37:50.040 --> 00:37:58.560
oh there you go makes sense today you learned yeah next up actually yeah I we

started recommending dollar sh sh Club as well it makes sense all right we got

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

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

00:38:09.280 --> 00:38:15.680
different cities right now I don't remember what ones so GG but there's not

00:38:13.000 --> 00:38:19.160
Vancouver unfortunately only the stat yes they're only in the states the idea

00:38:17.440 --> 00:38:24.200
is that they're using data from Google Maps to figure out basically uh what the

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

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

00:38:31.079 --> 00:38:36.160
save you if you get solar panels installed so that you can figure out

00:38:34.319 --> 00:38:41.160
things like should you get solar panels installed it'll also help you figure out

00:38:37.520 --> 00:38:44.160
how much that will cost um so it can

00:38:41.160 --> 00:38:45.880
survey companies in your area and it can

00:38:44.160 --> 00:38:49.319
actually recommend ones to you tell you how much it'll cost to install tell you

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

00:38:51.599 --> 00:38:57.960
stuff so basically the idea is taking a lot of the confusion out of getting

00:38:55.520 --> 00:39:00.720
solar panels installed on your house and making it a lot easier in terms of

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

00:39:03.920 --> 00:39:10.440
the complicated problems which I think is great because solar panels are

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

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

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

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

00:39:24.359 --> 00:39:30.280
now I have no idea how many emails

00:39:28.240 --> 00:39:34.440
we we we took kind of an ask forgiveness not permission approach to the Meetup

00:39:32.119 --> 00:39:39.280
today so for those of you who weren't here live who are watching we had

00:39:36.960 --> 00:39:45.280
probably as many as probably about 300 people here at one point like it was

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

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

00:39:54.599 --> 00:40:00.480
the office which we are going to continue to do after the show today that

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

00:40:03.640 --> 00:40:08.640
they are on us fortunately we've already got the stratus approval for my big

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

00:40:10.280 --> 00:40:15.880
picked up the permit for that on you a

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

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

00:40:21.880 --> 00:40:27.800
cuz it could fall off the building like Strat are so frustrating but like I mean

00:40:26.040 --> 00:40:31.200
fortunately they wouldn't let us cover the Windows we need to cover the Windows

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

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

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

00:40:42.720 --> 00:40:49.720
news is that we're occupying three of the eight units in this building which

00:40:46.640 --> 00:40:52.480
gives us an awful lot of

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

00:40:53.960 --> 00:41:02.079
we don't piss off literally everyone which we might have just done so um so

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

00:41:04.000 --> 00:41:11.599
talking so much today and those you

00:41:08.599 --> 00:41:13.800
that's awesome I know this man sorry

00:41:11.599 --> 00:41:21.359
keep going so it's finally happened an actual

00:41:17.920 --> 00:41:24.000
fashion watch brand has gotten around to

00:41:21.359 --> 00:41:30.359
doing a smartwatch fossil unveils it's Intel powered Android Wear watch flat

00:41:26.720 --> 00:41:32.880
tire play into so let's uh so these are

00:41:30.359 --> 00:41:37.560
just some these are just some not not actually Android wear these are typical

00:41:34.599 --> 00:41:45.319
Fossil watches all right bippity boppity there it is

00:41:40.480 --> 00:41:48.680
so um yeah it kind of looks like a Moto

00:41:45.319 --> 00:41:50.319
360 it super looks like a Moto 360 yeah

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

00:41:53.960 --> 00:41:59.240
basically it's it's kind of shinier also it has like

00:41:57.839 --> 00:42:03.000
beving and and hopefully the battery lasts longer I mean the thing about a

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

00:42:06.160 --> 00:42:14.760
it with Android Weare yeah you can go square or you can go round cuz like

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

00:42:15.880 --> 00:42:24.720
could have a rubber strap or like a leather one or like maybe it could come

00:42:21.119 --> 00:42:28.200
with two straps W and you could change

00:42:24.720 --> 00:42:31.000
them out W so I mean I get it it's not

00:42:28.200 --> 00:42:34.760
really that different um so they also showed off some some other stuff a

00:42:32.599 --> 00:42:39.960
fitness band a semi- smartwatch and then the fully fledged Smartwatch um I think

00:42:37.920 --> 00:42:45.839
the technology has to has to continue to progress a little

00:42:42.960 --> 00:42:50.760
bit I mean Samsung and LG are both showing off transparent OLED displays

00:42:48.400 --> 00:42:56.119
that are capable of in the neighborhood of

00:42:51.760 --> 00:42:58.880
50% plus or minus transparency I mean I

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

00:43:01.280 --> 00:43:09.280
transparent display over top of what is otherwise a beautifully crafted

00:43:06.400 --> 00:43:13.200
mechanical watch that's when you're going to get a lot of attention and I

00:43:11.079 --> 00:43:16.760
know there's that one company that's done it that everyone always links us

00:43:14.920 --> 00:43:21.160
when we say this every time and they're like not

00:43:18.680 --> 00:43:24.680
good just they're just not you're not feeling charitable today no but it's

00:43:23.040 --> 00:43:28.720
true I don't know like I'm feeling charitable because uh Google's sunroof

00:43:27.200 --> 00:43:33.720
thing is fantastic I'm not feeling Charle because that watch is

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

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

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

00:43:42.920 --> 00:43:49.200
there you go um there is no word on the

00:43:46.559 --> 00:43:53.760
hardware inside the Android Smartwatch from fossil the battery life pricing or

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

00:43:56.480 --> 00:44:01.400
on display it's getting a negative review from me

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

00:44:04.240 --> 00:44:10.240
another one what if it's one of the transparent ones and the screen is off

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

00:44:13.160 --> 00:44:18.480
the big thing is just I want to be able

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

00:44:21.079 --> 00:44:27.599
even more Awkward because of Ed's editing on that that was just that was

00:44:25.200 --> 00:44:32.880
pretty cringe right there but it is a perfectly valid point the time when I

00:44:29.960 --> 00:44:38.000
realized that motion gestures were ridiculous was when I was laying on my

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

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

00:44:45.599 --> 00:44:51.319
couldn't look up the time because you

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

00:44:54.200 --> 00:45:00.599
see the time no that's ridiculous it's that that motion

00:44:58.319 --> 00:45:04.119
reminded me of that super old school uh Apple like 1984

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

00:45:08.079 --> 00:45:13.559
hated so that's what I need to see and

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

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

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

00:45:25.319 --> 00:45:32.359
don't sit down either okay so normally when we want to get like

00:45:30.319 --> 00:45:37.880
questions or comments from the audience we take to Twitter but the audience is

00:45:35.200 --> 00:45:43.119
here so I would like for Luke to be my dman here and if anyone would like to

00:45:39.880 --> 00:45:44.960
come and do a live Twitter Blitz and uh

00:45:43.119 --> 00:45:48.599
well get get over here don't be shy don't put up your hand like some kind of

00:45:46.720 --> 00:45:54.440

thing and uh thank you for your question

00:46:06.319 --> 00:46:11.280
I did not invent Linux common

00:46:09.319 --> 00:46:16.599
misconception especially yeah you're you're wearing a tech Syndicate shirt

00:46:12.680 --> 00:46:19.480
did he send you no um I wish so uh

00:46:16.599 --> 00:46:27.200
common misconception especially on Reddit SLR slpc Master race where it's

00:46:23.680 --> 00:46:29.440
like there's I I have my own tag and and

00:46:27.200 --> 00:46:35.240
people are like like every time there's like one without votes it's like I came

00:46:31.880 --> 00:46:39.079
here expecting the other lius I was

00:46:35.240 --> 00:46:42.559
disappointed I'm sorry I can't be him I

00:46:39.079 --> 00:46:44.640
just make YouTube videos uh anyone else

00:46:42.559 --> 00:46:48.760

00:46:46.640 --> 00:46:55.119
first all right what do you got live Twitter Blitz hello um lonus yes what

00:46:53.079 --> 00:46:58.520
about your company I'm listening what about your company do you like the most

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

00:47:02.599 --> 00:47:11.960
like the most is working with a team of people that I

00:47:08.079 --> 00:47:13.680
handpicked um it's really it it it is

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

00:47:16.440 --> 00:47:23.119
really different from working somewhere

00:47:20.200 --> 00:47:31.079
where you know your new subordinate or your new peer or your new boss might be

00:47:26.960 --> 00:47:33.520
selected by someone else and you know

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

00:47:37.040 --> 00:47:44.599
am incredibly grateful to everyone from the president of the company up there

00:47:41.200 --> 00:47:46.760
who by the end of my time at NC I

00:47:44.599 --> 00:47:51.559
reported to directly I'm grateful to everyone from him down to you know the

00:47:49.359 --> 00:47:55.680
guys in the warehouse that made sure that my orders got counted correctly and

00:47:54.000 --> 00:47:58.880
labeled correctly and shipped to the customers on time like

00:47:57.440 --> 00:48:03.000
it was such an amazing learning experience but lonus Media Group the

00:48:01.280 --> 00:48:11.160
greatest thing about it is the people here um every one of them is handpicked

00:48:06.760 --> 00:48:14.240
by me so I have no one to blame but

00:48:11.160 --> 00:48:16.240
myself if it doesn't work out and we

00:48:14.240 --> 00:48:21.000
have an incredible team here absolutely world class I mean I think the results

00:48:18.760 --> 00:48:25.559
speak for themselves since lius Tech tips has gone Indie and is under the

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

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

00:48:33.839 --> 00:48:39.520
you cently they're great other than throwing things at me um I mean that's

00:48:38.280 --> 00:48:43.559
another great thing about it we have a really great work Dynamic U you know

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

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

00:48:50.920 --> 00:48:59.480
back from these guys this is the kind of company where you can legitimately shoot

00:48:56.359 --> 00:48:59.960
your B with a Nerf gun in the head and

00:48:59.480 --> 00:49:07.040
it's cool don't go get a gun right

00:49:07.040 --> 00:49:14.040
now um the worst thing about it I think is probably the hours I thought that

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

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

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

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

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

00:49:37.240 --> 00:49:45.480
sometimes I broke things or whatever but but the point is is

00:49:41.559 --> 00:49:47.680
that because we've tried to really amp

00:49:45.480 --> 00:49:53.960
up what we're doing in every possible way every additional body that we add

00:49:50.480 --> 00:49:56.760
here is all about increasing quality

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

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

00:50:03.520 --> 00:50:10.799
were working out of a house L Media Group just got started and now you're

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

00:50:12.760 --> 00:50:18.440
great question and go away

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

00:50:20.160 --> 00:50:28.359
crystal ball that is amazing enough to answer because if you had asked me 2 and

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

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

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

00:50:39.160 --> 00:50:44.720
five years and five years when it was

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

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

00:50:52.520 --> 00:50:57.680
unboxings and we'll have like more channels we'll kind of do unboxings of

00:50:56.400 --> 00:51:02.319
tech and then maybe we'll do like unboxings of like tools or cars or other

00:51:00.040 --> 00:51:07.960
things like we'll have like the unboxing Network that would have been my vision

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

00:51:11.319 --> 00:51:18.280
an actual studio um we don't do unboxings anymore

00:51:15.440 --> 00:51:23.559
really and our new channels are things like Channel Super Fun where we're

00:51:20.240 --> 00:51:25.559
pitting dildos against each other one

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

00:51:28.000 --> 00:51:35.319
stuff my title to dildo engineer no too late truth is Stranger Than

00:51:33.760 --> 00:51:39.480
Fiction sometimes and if you'd asked me when we moved into the the house Studio

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

00:51:42.680 --> 00:51:49.200
and that place was bursting at the seams what's your name Andrew all right Andrew

00:51:47.760 --> 00:51:54.680
what's your question how would you compare the the work style at the old

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

00:51:59.559 --> 00:52:06.359
go away you can stay close enough to hear the answer no Andrew come back no

00:52:03.760 --> 00:52:08.720
no I mean no don't sit down right there's

00:52:11.400 --> 00:52:17.280
fine um so the workflow is not yet

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

00:52:19.640 --> 00:52:26.000
that we're going to handle footage and transcoding it and people who went on

00:52:24.559 --> 00:52:30.760
the tour with me might know a little bit about this

00:52:27.559 --> 00:52:36.000
uh the workflow in terms of shooting is

00:52:30.760 --> 00:52:37.480
going to be way tidier much much tidier

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

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

00:52:49.880 --> 00:52:56.880
shirt um so the main thing I expect in the new

00:52:54.680 --> 00:53:01.720
workflow is organization because in the past we had one place where like

00:53:00.160 --> 00:53:07.400
sometimes I was actually testing hardware and then I was filming like the

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

00:53:08.799 --> 00:53:14.240
move his cameras in and shoot b-roll there was just no room for anything so

00:53:12.319 --> 00:53:20.079
we're going to actually have things go from inventory with a real system for

00:53:16.200 --> 00:53:22.200
tracking that to testing to shooting to

00:53:20.079 --> 00:53:28.440
b-roll and then back to inventory I expect organization that's the biggest

00:53:23.799 --> 00:53:28.440
difference awesome all right next

00:53:29.359 --> 00:53:35.880
sup welcome to the W show thank you um

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

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

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

00:53:46.119 --> 00:53:51.960
surprise show when we get over 9,000 viewers and then you guys ended up

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

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

00:53:56.680 --> 00:54:01.400
a l show I don't know hey Luke did we

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

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

00:54:08.079 --> 00:54:14.000
we apparently said that and I have no

00:54:11.599 --> 00:54:14.000
that is

00:54:14.799 --> 00:54:21.079
so maybe but do we have any

00:54:18.359 --> 00:54:26.880
no are we totally forgot thank you for asking we can do it

00:54:22.760 --> 00:54:28.960
though I think I might know but

00:54:26.880 --> 00:54:33.559
but it might have been it okay I'll just I'll just tell

00:54:31.280 --> 00:54:37.799
you it might have been like blonde spiky wigs like super saiyan yes I think that

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

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

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

00:54:47.720 --> 00:54:55.480
of been like that like the first time we broke a thousand viewers I was like

00:54:51.839 --> 00:54:57.040
whoa and now we're sitting at 8,900 for

00:54:55.480 --> 00:55:01.440
a Twitter Blitz well sort of Twitter are you even on

00:54:58.960 --> 00:55:06.040
Twitter barely bar there you go all right what's up um I was wondering which

00:55:03.680 --> 00:55:09.240
of your employes you think works the hardest wow

00:55:09.839 --> 00:55:14.680
me that's pretty good that's

00:55:15.760 --> 00:55:21.920
all Brandon it's Brandon it's Brandon

00:55:18.920 --> 00:55:24.200
it's Brandon could be Brandon could be

00:55:21.920 --> 00:55:28.400
Brandon could be could be Luke could be Nick you know what everyone here works

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

00:55:32.720 --> 00:55:39.760
like two weeks and uh he fell asleep at

00:55:36.400 --> 00:55:43.319
work once and stuff and so our culture

00:55:39.760 --> 00:55:46.839
is one of work extremely hard play

00:55:43.319 --> 00:55:49.640
extremely hard um but everyone here

00:55:46.839 --> 00:55:56.599
Works incredibly hard who's next I hope I last two week it's a two

00:55:53.599 --> 00:56:00.960
person oh so

00:55:56.599 --> 00:56:04.160
oh so lonus no when's the next Meetup

00:56:00.960 --> 00:56:07.559
happening wow great question

00:56:04.160 --> 00:56:10.359
um so the last time I did a formal

00:56:07.559 --> 00:56:12.720
Meetup I think was um he's mine get out get out get

00:56:12.799 --> 00:56:19.160
out the last time I did a formal like an

00:56:16.079 --> 00:56:23.599
actually formal Meetup I think was an NC

00:56:19.160 --> 00:56:26.559
event where we had three projectors 3D

00:56:23.599 --> 00:56:33.319
projectors running in NVIDIA surround powered by a couple of GTX

00:56:29.280 --> 00:56:35.799
590s that was ba and I only probably had

00:56:33.319 --> 00:56:42.280
like 30 people show up for that so I kind of gave up on

00:56:38.520 --> 00:56:45.200
them uh oh Kingston hypx paintball was

00:56:42.280 --> 00:56:49.520
sort of a Meetup but it it was also yeah the guys that were there were awesome it

00:56:46.920 --> 00:56:55.440
was also a like a shoot and so the people that came had to like be in a

00:56:52.720 --> 00:56:59.680
video and stuff so okay I had forgotten about that one because that day was a

00:56:57.559 --> 00:57:04.319
freaking blur I was coordinating a Meetup like starring in the video and

00:57:02.440 --> 00:57:11.720
coordinating the video shoot all in one day like it was bananas yeah yes I did

00:57:08.920 --> 00:57:18.119
not intend for Sho to be a pun but I'm glad it happened did I do one at

00:57:14.799 --> 00:57:19.640
PA 2013 oh okay that was like the photo

00:57:18.119 --> 00:57:23.680
booth thing I wouldn't call that a formal meet up it was like yeah should

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

00:57:26.160 --> 00:57:33.760
as long as we don't accidentally put a g on the end then the

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

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

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

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

00:57:49.640 --> 00:57:57.520
so YouTube I have seen many YouTube

00:57:54.760 --> 00:58:02.839
personalities uh com and go uh throughout my my like I've never really

00:58:00.240 --> 00:58:06.680
done the explosive exponential growth thing but I've also never leveled off

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

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

00:58:12.839 --> 00:58:18.520
them I've I've seen a lot of those guys

00:58:16.319 --> 00:58:25.400
fall behind in terms of their their YouTube audience anyway um and I think

00:58:23.359 --> 00:58:30.160
there are a lot of different reasons it's happened you know YouTube has

00:58:27.119 --> 00:58:32.559
changed the audience has changed uh the

00:58:30.160 --> 00:58:39.799
technology has changed everything is always changing and the old formula is

00:58:36.440 --> 00:58:43.160
not going to work forever and that is

00:58:39.799 --> 00:58:45.839
why even though it was a huge risk we

00:58:43.160 --> 00:58:51.720
killed unboxings we stopped doing unboxings that was our bread and butter

00:58:48.039 --> 00:58:53.960
it was the single most viewed and

00:58:51.720 --> 00:58:58.880
therefore profitable thing that we did as a company and here I was I took this

00:58:56.440 --> 00:59:02.160
enormous leap of faith I was like okay I'm tired of this that means the

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

00:59:03.880 --> 00:59:11.319
kill it all we do now is reviews and projects and and showcases so so we

00:59:09.319 --> 00:59:17.319
killed unboxings we switch to almost entirely reviews at that time we are

00:59:14.160 --> 00:59:19.640
actually in the middle of yet another

00:59:17.319 --> 00:59:24.200
reinvention right now um some of you might have noticed we are going to be

00:59:22.799 --> 00:59:29.559
gradually we're still going to do reviews but we are GR gradually making

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

00:59:30.799 --> 00:59:38.400
front of me we are we are gradually moving away from just reviews to more

00:59:36.240 --> 00:59:44.400
projects and like crazy over-the-top you know showcases and

00:59:40.720 --> 00:59:46.680
stuff and more of making Linus Tech tips

00:59:44.400 --> 00:59:54.760
like this this is like the dream for me making Linus Tech tips a show about

00:59:51.079 --> 00:59:59.520
technology rather than a technology

00:59:54.760 --> 01:00:02.920
unboxing or view show so I don't want it

00:59:59.520 --> 01:00:06.160
to live within the confines of this is

01:00:02.920 --> 01:00:09.079
what we do I want us to just do whatever

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

01:00:13.000 --> 01:00:19.160
our staff and grown the company the way

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

01:00:21.920 --> 01:00:29.079
something like scrapyard Wars is impossible because that takes a big crew

01:00:26.680 --> 01:00:34.280
of people to make happen it takes an enormous amount of time stuff like new

01:00:31.599 --> 01:00:38.880
office Vlog which kind of accidentally turned into kind of a reality show that

01:00:37.359 --> 01:00:43.599
that everyone loved would have been impossible stuff like Luke wants to do

01:00:41.240 --> 01:00:50.079
where we DIY solar panels on the roof of the office would be impossible if we

01:00:46.720 --> 01:00:54.280
didn't have our own paid C camera crew

01:00:50.079 --> 01:00:56.520
on staff in the office every day so you

01:00:54.280 --> 01:01:01.680
know it's it's it's so cliche but I really want lonus Tech tips

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

01:01:04.119 --> 01:01:09.760
car show it's just a show it's well not

01:01:07.480 --> 01:01:14.480
anymore it's anything but but but what it was was an entertaining show with

01:01:12.160 --> 01:01:18.400
great personalities and the cars were happy to be along for the ride so that's

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

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

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

01:01:30.880 --> 01:01:37.200
because it was hard enough to get our safety inspection passed with a handrail

01:01:35.359 --> 01:01:42.119
on that stupid staircase let alone a fire pole on the outside of it so uh

01:01:40.599 --> 01:01:48.000
what's your favorite series that you've ever done my personal favorite great

01:01:45.480 --> 01:01:51.720
question um wow my personal

01:01:52.720 --> 01:02:00.079
favorite it's got to be scrapyard Wars um

01:01:56.400 --> 01:02:02.920
it's a lot of fun to shoot um it's a lot

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

01:02:05.559 --> 01:02:12.119
scrapyard Wars is so fun for me to watch

01:02:09.440 --> 01:02:18.160
because it's like it's like the Highlight Reel of that enormous amount

01:02:14.960 --> 01:02:21.119
of time that I spent on it for me and I

01:02:18.160 --> 01:02:25.079
get to enjoy the struggle and the Triumph that's going on opposite me that

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

01:02:28.000 --> 01:02:33.039
watch what would you have done if Darren

01:02:31.640 --> 01:02:39.440
died Darren who's Darren specifically I know

01:02:35.839 --> 01:02:41.880
a lot of oh Darren the 3D printer well

01:02:39.440 --> 01:02:46.240
Darren did die fortunately Luke resurrected

01:02:43.440 --> 01:02:51.760
him so uh we're changing his name to Lazarus lafrenier and uh wait no Darren

01:02:49.720 --> 01:02:56.559
we're changing to Lazarus Luke's name we're changing to something hopefully

01:02:53.279 --> 01:02:58.559
unoffensive so

01:02:56.559 --> 01:03:03.480
let's just move on from that that question what can I do for you nice

01:03:00.119 --> 01:03:06.119
shirt thanks uh in the little time that

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

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

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

01:03:18.960 --> 01:03:26.279
my kids are awesome that's uh that's what I do when I'm not

01:03:22.880 --> 01:03:28.520
here and sometimes I eat

01:03:26.279 --> 01:03:33.279
how are you today I am fantastic thank you for asking um my question is about

01:03:31.039 --> 01:03:37.559
ant venom actually really what were your thoughts on when he said he was going to

01:03:35.200 --> 01:03:45.400
come and then his flight being cancelled I was super bummed out because ant venom

01:03:40.920 --> 01:03:46.599
is like such an amazing lonus Tech tips

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

01:03:48.599 --> 01:03:54.359
subscribers on YouTube big deal he was

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

01:03:58.200 --> 01:04:05.680
huge content creators show up at our Fan event as like a huge bonus for the

01:04:03.000 --> 01:04:09.319
people here and just for me to shoot the breeze with because I living in

01:04:07.920 --> 01:04:13.760
Vancouver there's not a lot of huge YouTubers here and huge streamers here

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

01:04:17.160 --> 01:04:22.520
to yeah if I want to like hang out with

01:04:20.440 --> 01:04:27.440
guys that are that are absolutely huge and guys that are like totally in my

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

01:04:29.520 --> 01:04:36.520
totally in my head is it's funny because

01:04:32.559 --> 01:04:37.880
Gamers and like it technophiles they're

01:04:36.520 --> 01:04:41.720
kind of like they're like the VIN diagram right like there's the overlap

01:04:40.160 --> 01:04:47.559
but a lot of the time the guys building the Beast gaming rigs are not actually

01:04:44.000 --> 01:04:49.680
hardcore Gamers like me and the guys

01:04:47.559 --> 01:04:55.000
that are the hardcore gamers are not that techsavvy they just buy a pre-built

01:04:51.640 --> 01:04:56.839
machine in a send right so an Venom

01:04:55.000 --> 01:05:02.079
actually took our whole room water cooling concept amped it up a notch and

01:05:00.400 --> 01:05:07.359
has his gaming machine on a separate floor of his house with his Radiator in

01:05:04.520 --> 01:05:12.240
the basement but he did it up right he took everything we learned every mistake

01:05:09.839 --> 01:05:18.880
we made and he published a video on his gaming Centric channel of his Recreation

01:05:15.599 --> 01:05:20.720
of whole room water cooling which works

01:05:18.880 --> 01:05:25.079
it actually gets the heat out of the room successfully because he didn't use

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

01:05:26.720 --> 01:05:32.640
through the floor he used a plastic Reservoir a lesson that we learned about

01:05:31.079 --> 01:05:38.039
anti-corrosive additives and how they don't always work so his video is badass

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

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

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

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

01:05:57.119 --> 01:06:02.880
almost completely ran out of money uh 4

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

01:06:06.640 --> 01:06:17.160
that it works is even if you have a sponsor like Intel or whoever especially

01:06:14.079 --> 01:06:20.720
a big sponsor they don't expect to

01:06:17.160 --> 01:06:23.720
prepay for things so they expect to

01:06:20.720 --> 01:06:25.200
reach an agreement sign a contract like

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

01:06:27.119 --> 01:06:33.839
video 10 times in the month of you know

01:06:31.200 --> 01:06:40.119
February and then once you've executed the contract they expect what's called

01:06:36.160 --> 01:06:41.760
net terms so that is they pay after

01:06:40.119 --> 01:06:45.440
completion that gives them time to process it in accounting and get you

01:06:43.839 --> 01:06:50.160
know the necessary signatures and all that stuff and I get it but it means

01:06:47.599 --> 01:06:56.359
that even though lonus Media Group was working hard to obtain sponsors and and

01:06:52.960 --> 01:06:57.960
all that stuff all without selling out I

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

01:06:59.680 --> 01:07:06.960
it has a meaning that people don't understand sellout doesn't mean you make

01:07:03.240 --> 01:07:09.559
money we make money but sellout means

01:07:06.960 --> 01:07:16.640
making money by compromising your values so we have never taken money from Blue

01:07:14.279 --> 01:07:21.359
to review this microphone that will not happen we can take money from Blue to

01:07:19.559 --> 01:07:26.440
put their microphone in front of our camera while we host the W show that is

01:07:24.160 --> 01:07:32.839
sponsorship that is is a product placement that is completely separate we

01:07:29.359 --> 01:07:34.520
will give a bad review to a sponsor if

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

01:07:37.960 --> 01:07:46.039
value to our viewers and therefore no value to a future sponsor I mean even if

01:07:42.440 --> 01:07:48.799
I was a terrible person I can't sell out

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

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

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

01:08:00.000 --> 01:08:06.799
give you people bad advice about technology and tell you the wrong thing

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

01:08:08.880 --> 01:08:14.760
still wouldn't do it so we had to even

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

01:08:16.319 --> 01:08:23.080
willing to sell out because you have to be like look this guarantees you no

01:08:20.560 --> 01:08:29.839
special treatment nothing you get nothing other than the ad iing spot that

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

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

01:08:38.759 --> 01:08:44.440
first paychecks aside from things like YouTube

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

01:08:46.679 --> 01:08:53.199
took a risk um Luke and Ed both took a

01:08:51.440 --> 01:08:58.679
risk too they dropped out of their programs in school because I promised

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

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

01:09:06.000 --> 01:09:12.920
April of the first year of lus Media Group we almost completely ran out of

01:09:10.159 --> 01:09:18.279
money like out like done like we were down to

01:09:15.480 --> 01:09:23.759
double digits in the account I didn't have another payroll and then the check

01:09:20.480 --> 01:09:25.920
started arriving so it was down to the

01:09:23.759 --> 01:09:29.520
wire for us it was terrifying the good news about what we were doing

01:09:27.679 --> 01:09:32.520
is at least I had a lot of Industry connections and that's another I

01:09:31.319 --> 01:09:37.040
mentioned this earlier on the show but I'll always be thankful for my time at

01:09:34.359 --> 01:09:42.040
NC for all the things I learned and I should have mentioned this all the

01:09:38.440 --> 01:09:43.880
amazing people I met many of whom like

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

01:09:46.359 --> 01:09:52.880
Corsair that was Corsair was our first

01:09:50.799 --> 01:09:59.960
the first ones that ever wrote lonus Media Group Incorporated a check was

01:09:55.920 --> 01:10:01.280
Corsair um and and those guys those guys

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

01:10:05.600 --> 01:10:12.239
design were on board very early on Josh from fractal huge buddies you it doesn't

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

01:10:15.960 --> 01:10:21.560
early guys really helped us pull through what can I do for you what are you

01:10:20.159 --> 01:10:25.480
planning to print with your 3D printer that's actually practical okay the first

01:10:23.920 --> 01:10:30.520
practical thing you'll see printed is a shroud for our new router that is going

01:10:28.560 --> 01:10:35.040
to handle our new gigabit internet connection and it needs a cooling shroud

01:10:33.000 --> 01:10:39.000
because I built using standard components in a oneu case and we

01:10:37.440 --> 01:10:44.560
couldn't find a way to cool the CPU very well without that shroud which

01:10:42.080 --> 01:10:49.280
we hope works but we don't know yet hi there hi nice sunglasses we're

01:10:46.600 --> 01:10:54.560
sunglasses buddies well thank you uh is there anything you regret about getting

01:10:52.159 --> 01:10:57.520
your own company with lonus Media Group and going out on your own rather than

01:10:56.560 --> 01:11:05.600
through n um wow good question is there anything I

01:11:03.280 --> 01:11:10.480
regret I mean this ties really closely into the what do I like what do I not

01:11:07.280 --> 01:11:13.159
like question I mean I wish I didn't

01:11:10.480 --> 01:11:19.280
have to work so hard but like the fact that I get to I get to roll into my like

01:11:17.080 --> 01:11:23.840
parking spot that says Linus Media Group employees only and then I get to go

01:11:21.600 --> 01:11:30.320
inside and like hang out with Luke and Ed and Brandon and ter and Nick and

01:11:26.880 --> 01:11:35.320
other Nick and Colton and I'm going to

01:11:30.320 --> 01:11:38.040
forget someone crap John yes thank you

01:11:35.320 --> 01:11:44.360
who else am I missing I'm sure I Dennis and Dennis I think I got everyone I mean

01:11:41.280 --> 01:11:47.600
it's amazing it's like the best job ever

01:11:44.360 --> 01:11:49.400
like you will not I will sometimes post

01:11:47.600 --> 01:11:54.280
pictures in the middle of the night of like me still working on something at

01:11:51.120 --> 01:11:56.719
3:00 a.m. I'm not looking for your pity

01:11:54.280 --> 01:12:02.000
I'm just saying this is what I'm up to because I have the best job on Earth

01:11:59.120 --> 01:12:06.280
it's awesome so yeah well I have the best job on Earth I

01:12:04.560 --> 01:12:10.679
don't speak for Ed it may not be the best paying he has a pretty cool job

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

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

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

01:12:24.880 --> 01:12:33.480
um actually that's a great that's a great question because this Sunday I am

01:12:29.960 --> 01:12:35.400
going down to chill with one of my main

01:12:33.480 --> 01:12:40.840
Inspirations when I was starting up on YouTube uh Chris pillo also known as

01:12:38.320 --> 01:12:46.760
Locker Nome is going to be hosting an event called vlogger Fair uh this

01:12:43.400 --> 01:12:48.920
weekend in Seattle so I will be on a

01:12:46.760 --> 01:12:53.719
panel down there on Sunday so I'll be doing two meetups within like 3 days

01:12:51.760 --> 01:12:58.199
which is kind of amazing um so I'll be down there just on the Sunday

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

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

01:13:03.920 --> 01:13:10.920
showing up uh they're both they're both based in that area

01:13:08.520 --> 01:13:15.920
um yeah no Chris was a huge inspiration for me because he was like pardon my

01:13:13.480 --> 01:13:19.960
French he was like the [ __ ] when it came to Tech on YouTube when I was first

01:13:18.000 --> 01:13:22.840
getting started no one no one could touch that guy and I didn't really

01:13:21.360 --> 01:13:25.840
follow the phone guys like your John ringers and your soldier knows best and

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

01:13:30.000 --> 01:13:35.520
was him so um yeah I've learned a lot

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

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

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

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

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

01:13:54.679 --> 01:14:01.719
there that a great job thank you

01:13:57.760 --> 01:14:04.280
um but and if anything I think I would

01:14:01.719 --> 01:14:09.280
be surprised if it's Tech related I think between Linus Tech tips and Tech

01:14:06.639 --> 01:14:14.600
quickie we can handle you know your shows and your reviews and we can handle

01:14:12.159 --> 01:14:20.000
your rapid fire information basically like repository of facts about crap to

01:14:17.560 --> 01:14:25.560
do with tech um and I think Channel Super Fun has been a really uh amazing

01:14:24.280 --> 01:14:33.199
in terms of the growth that we've experienced and be um really fun for us

01:14:29.960 --> 01:14:35.600
to make and so I think our next project

01:14:33.199 --> 01:14:41.080
which may be sooner rather than later uh because Channel Super Fun is as big now

01:14:39.159 --> 01:14:45.960
as Techquickie was when we started super fun so it may be sooner rather

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

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

01:14:52.760 --> 01:15:00.000
something to do with toys which is what Channel Super Fun was supposed to be and

01:14:56.520 --> 01:15:02.920
completely ended up not becoming at all

01:15:00.000 --> 01:15:07.120
um is anyone else coming in for live Twitter

01:15:04.320 --> 01:15:10.320
Blitz okay Luke come on back onto the show what's your favorite

01:15:10.960 --> 01:15:16.320
color mine's red you don't even you made

01:15:14.600 --> 01:15:22.159
that up on the spot uh okay this is a little known fact

01:15:19.840 --> 01:15:26.800
because I'm always on about pink my favorite color is actually green

01:15:25.239 --> 01:15:33.159
so there you go um should we do a oh we got to do the

01:15:29.480 --> 01:15:35.960
Ashley Madison topic so more details uh

01:15:33.159 --> 01:15:39.960
on the Ashley Madison hack so those of you who aren't familiar

01:15:37.320 --> 01:15:46.239
ashleymadison.com is an is like a cheating site for married people and

01:15:43.120 --> 01:15:48.120
they uh they were threatened they said

01:15:46.239 --> 01:15:52.000
look we hacked into you we got all your user data including credit card

01:15:49.719 --> 01:15:56.159
information and they were you can hack into me anytime although I'd prefer if

01:15:53.960 --> 01:16:00.880
you didn't hack gentle this time please yes okay um we learned the first time

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

01:16:04.239 --> 01:16:10.040
only real it's worse than we thought the

01:16:07.440 --> 01:16:14.159
details are everywhere they basically said look if you don't pull down your

01:16:11.880 --> 01:16:18.040
site we're going to leak all the data which included credit card information

01:16:15.880 --> 01:16:21.679
now to be clear if you want to check on your significant other or whatever the

01:16:20.080 --> 01:16:26.280
fact that they have an account is actually not meaningful I have an Ashley

01:16:24.120 --> 01:16:31.520
Madison account as soon as we started reporting on the Ashley Madison thing

01:16:28.239 --> 01:16:33.520
someone signed my email address up for

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

01:16:35.719 --> 01:16:43.639
started getting newsletters I was like do people not do email verification

01:16:41.040 --> 01:16:47.360
apparently not so that's a cool thing because it means that there aren't

01:16:45.000 --> 01:16:51.199
necessarily 30 million cheats out there because anyone even someone who has no

01:16:49.800 --> 01:16:55.520
idea they have an account can apparently have an account but they also leaked

01:16:54.080 --> 01:16:59.639
credit card information so if you want to actually use the site

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

01:17:02.719 --> 01:17:09.159
so it's taking a lot longer than we originally expected to find all the

01:17:06.159 --> 01:17:11.199
people that were actually um using the

01:17:09.159 --> 01:17:16.239
website but it is starting to happen like basically person by person it's

01:17:13.280 --> 01:17:21.800
being leaked um like the the first tip off was when like B Obama at whatever.

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

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

01:17:30.440 --> 01:17:35.480
account which uh was leaked like three

01:17:33.480 --> 01:17:40.520
years ago and I never touch except for certain things um like my Ashley Madison

01:17:39.000 --> 01:17:46.440
account um so that account I logged into it at

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

01:17:48.560 --> 01:17:55.960
of three thousand like daily Bible verse

01:17:53.120 --> 01:18:01.679
newsletters sitting in it and I was like you got to be kidding me

01:17:59.400 --> 01:18:07.159
so someone I think there are sites that email account oh I've had that

01:18:03.920 --> 01:18:09.280
email daily emails yeah no not daily but

01:18:07.159 --> 01:18:15.920
60,000 emails from the ones coming in Daily yeah yeah total and hot mails

01:18:11.760 --> 01:18:18.280
filter can only like do so many at a

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

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

01:18:24.560 --> 01:18:32.840
by like specific email address so if it's like info@ lighthous media that's

01:18:30.120 --> 01:18:36.920
different from news at lighthous media which is different from admin at Life

01:18:34.520 --> 01:18:40.360
House media and then it takes like 10 minutes to go through all you know

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

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

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

01:18:54.000 --> 01:19:01.639
cuz actually to dig through find something

01:18:57.719 --> 01:19:04.159
Hotmail has pretty sick um twostep yeah

01:19:01.639 --> 01:19:10.120
so my Hotmail account this is an interesting behind the- scenes story my

01:19:05.920 --> 01:19:13.320
hot mail account was what saved my all

01:19:10.120 --> 01:19:16.560
of my other accounts when my YouTube

01:19:13.320 --> 01:19:20.320
channel Got Hijacked a few years ago so

01:19:16.560 --> 01:19:22.400
they didn't get my hot mail account and

01:19:20.320 --> 01:19:27.440
that the notifications that I was getting as they were trying to get in

01:19:24.840 --> 01:19:32.080
was what alerted me to the need to change all my other passwords so they

01:19:30.000 --> 01:19:36.760
went for the hot mail account early and got locked out of everything else so

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

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

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

01:19:46.760 --> 01:19:53.400
actually a really good idea um so basically there's 10 gigs of Ashley

01:19:51.280 --> 01:19:57.960
Madison info out there it's pretty easy to find uh and they dumped another 20

01:19:56.199 --> 01:20:03.880
gigs onto the dark web in addition to the earlier 10 gigs for a total of

01:20:00.320 --> 01:20:06.760
30 um yeah so one of my favorite

01:20:03.880 --> 01:20:13.600
statistics um with there's thousands of fake female profiles and about 90 to 95%

01:20:09.600 --> 01:20:18.360
of the actual users are male yeah we

01:20:13.600 --> 01:20:19.920
suck yeah wow we're bad at things yeah

01:20:18.360 --> 01:20:25.719
and we should probably feel bad for being bad at things

01:20:22.320 --> 01:20:26.920
yep all right so what else did we tease

01:20:25.719 --> 01:20:34.719
because I think we're already it's already almost 6:30 popcorn time getting

01:20:29.840 --> 01:20:38.600
attacked yes so if you use popcorn time

01:20:34.719 --> 01:20:42.080
um and you wanted another reason why you

01:20:38.600 --> 01:20:44.360
probably shouldn't movie studio sues

01:20:42.080 --> 01:20:47.880
individual Popcorn Time users for infringement so for those of you who

01:20:46.159 --> 01:20:54.639
aren't familiar with popcorn time I've tried it it's really really good like

01:20:51.840 --> 01:21:00.600
it's the Netflix of piracy you basically basically just stream from Torrance and

01:20:56.480 --> 01:21:04.960
I was like wow this works really really

01:21:00.600 --> 01:21:07.960
well subtitles are all like a drop down

01:21:04.960 --> 01:21:10.239
I was like all that crap that like when

01:21:07.960 --> 01:21:16.560
you're watching a Blu-ray like it blows me away how crappy the Blu-ray

01:21:12.960 --> 01:21:18.719
experience still is why can't they fix

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

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

01:21:26.560 --> 01:21:31.880
these things just shut up they do really

01:21:30.280 --> 01:21:35.639
suck it's very very annoying when the experience is worse for people that are

01:21:33.480 --> 01:21:39.920
paying for it okay here's a million dooll idea for the movie studios why do

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

01:21:43.239 --> 01:21:48.560
discs set should have fewer episodes of

01:21:46.360 --> 01:21:53.000
the show on it and it should have a lower quality compressed version of the

01:21:50.960 --> 01:21:56.880
entire season so that I don't have to change my freaking Blu-ray

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

01:21:58.840 --> 01:22:05.719
Family Guy Do I need more pixels

01:22:02.560 --> 01:22:08.239
no million dooll idea why do I have to

01:22:05.719 --> 01:22:13.639
come up with it peeking sorry sorry sorry headphone users all the peeking so

01:22:11.560 --> 01:22:17.960
it just it blows me away how much better the piracy experience is but the thing

01:22:16.280 --> 01:22:24.679
that people need to understand about popcorn time is even if you're a

01:22:20.600 --> 01:22:26.840
Shameless pirate you should not use it

01:22:24.679 --> 01:22:32.360
because you don't know what you're seeding anything you watch sits and

01:22:29.679 --> 01:22:35.480
seeds in the background until you reboot your computer at least that's how it

01:22:33.840 --> 01:22:41.520
used to work I I actually haven't looked into it since probably still how it

01:22:38.120 --> 01:22:44.120
works so Popcorn Time users you could be

01:22:41.520 --> 01:22:48.520
getting it pretty good if you use Popcorn Time a lot restart your computer

01:22:46.239 --> 01:22:52.040
very infrequently because it could mean a lot of different Studios Netflix and

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

01:22:54.800 --> 01:23:01.880
chill Studios could be coming after you and you don't even realize that you've

01:22:59.120 --> 01:23:07.360
shared so many different movies cuz that's the thing is downloading is one

01:23:04.080 --> 01:23:12.040
thing Distributing is a whole other

01:23:07.360 --> 01:23:14.000
