hello welcome to the when show everybody
we've got a great show for you guys today you seem hesitant
we don't have a great show for them is it a bad show we have we have intense
fairly intense news the apple oh i know
right yeah so it turns out apple is
slowing down your old iphone well except for those of you who are like haha
joke's on you i don't have an iphone um except for you apple cannot slow down
your iphone but they can slow down your friend's iphone so you should still care
about this we'll talk about a little more later uh Intel ceo brian krasanage
came out and said we are going to take more risks
so basically Intel is getting into they're becoming they're going to get
into like like the energy drink sector nice and they're going to start inside
they're going to have a new slogan Intel we want to be inside you right now right
now over and over all night all night all
night oh i love it
oh we're off to a good start today um i can't get into the dock but uh
there is other good news good news yeah facebook strikes a music
deal with universal like which is great news because we needed another music
streaming platform yeah i needed another thing to subscribe to okay i'm actually
okay this is about to get really bad okay um
so taylor swift's album oh
oh no you didn't just hold on you did didn't you just for that you know what
we'll talk about it later um also magic leap magic lead finally has a product
yes you ordered it i well i signed up you can't order it yet so i signed up so
i'm expecting you know 10 years might show up so we'll talk about the the
ultimate secrecy freaking these guys are ridiculous i don't know how they got
funding because they didn't they've never shown anything no they have
only behind individually yes yes yeah like mdad literally up the rectum yeah
so no one's ever no one knows what's going on toe inside uh intelligent side
okay
i can just talk louder does that work for everybody great squarespace is that
cool for freshbooks okay we can just yell all show it i'm
down yeah i'm down to y'all i'm down to yell all show heck yeah apparently rip
rip ears rip yours oh sorry everyone apparently it got louder so i have no
idea what you people are talking about um that's a global audio setting so yeah
yeah i don't know what's going on okay so why don't we get into our first topic
for the day apple this was posted by dr mcintosh
on the forum uh the original article that we have
here is from yahoo finance it's posted in twitch chat but that's uh
that's an odd one i don't think i have actually which which one have we tested
is is that is that the luke one or is that minus one do we do we have any idea if
either of these this one works i believe that one works i think uh okay
let's um let's see what
happens right rock on so about a week ago a massively popular
and widely circulated thread on reddit posited that apple purposely slows down
performance on iphones with older
batteries which people have been thinking
for kind of ever yeah but now we've been able to you
know so in a nutshell iphone users have noticed their older phones not
performing as well as they did before iOS 10.2.1.
but they've also noticed that performance can increase
after getting a new battery so it turns out that apple has admitted that they
are intentionally gating the amount of power that the CPU demands from the
battery this is because the phone will shut down to protect itself if the CPU
demands more power than it can supply so there are three scenarios where
batteries are less likely to be able to produce the big bursts of power that the
CPU might ask for when they're cold
when they're low and when the battery has degraded over
time so what this means is that right out of the box you might run into a
situation where your CPU effectively throttles for a reason other than
thermals except that it could be thermals but cold thermals not hot thermals yes
but the other takeaway here the third reason means that
out of out of a hundred iphones how many
of them will slow down a hundred a hundred yeah
because if it will throttle once the battery decays well i shouldn't say
decays degrades these degrees they don't they don't necessarily decay i mean they
if you put enough like if you put enough chicken soup on them they could probably
decay do you remember that old camera we used to use for uh tech tips videos
lines tech tips videos that i got the chicken soup on yeah that decayed oh
yeah wow cause it yeah because it was in my backpack for like like over a span of
a week i didn't realize yeah chicken soup i didn't know it actually decayed
well it smelled oh so the soup did it souped it that's yeah well i don't know
the uh oh the contacts in the battery compartment were like corroded and stuff
okay that makes sense it's still not decay kind of a decay it's erosion
well you know i've had enough of your crap
how long do i have to put up with you again like when's your last day at Linus media like slightly over a week yeah
like just just over a week perfect perfect can't come soon enough
two days i'll get to put down that piece of tape that will make it totally
different than before yeah
you'll be working in you'll be working in a separate office an office
all by myself while i talk to people over the internet marked by the masking
tape that'll be your office yeah um and i won't have to be in it uh except when
i have to meet with you about four times oh oh oh we should talk about flow plane
stuff on the show come on
i want to show the pre-healthy site oh but see every single time that this
happens people get confused despite no matter how many times i say this isn't
the site you're supposed to be using everyone goes to go use it okay also you
never actually ended up telling all the editors that they're supposed to upload
things in a certain way and use that setting
so it hasn't been being used so there's things that aren't supposed to be viewed
yet on there and you're not going to tell them until next week and then
you'll probably forget so it's really not
up to you i'll think about it but people are going to be seeing videos with the
wrong titles i'll think about it i'll think about it okay um
anyway the Floatplane side of things going great we have a new live stream
panel thing set up so uh we'll show it later and yes i did uh
he's not streaming till later tonight we'll talk about that later we're gonna go through like you know what we're
doing it okay we're going through the thing because i'm out okay anyway so starting with iOS
10.2.1 max CPU power draw is stepped down in proportion to battery capability
uh it's not just like a like your battery's good so your phone runs at
full speed or your battery is a little bit okay the twitch chat is really confused about me leaving might want to
explain that okay starting january 1st all right all right
new okay okay can i finish the apple battery thing and then can we get into okay we'll come back to that we'll come
back to you it's not coming back to not that scary don't worry about it um no it's a little scary i'm scared
i mean it's are you a little scared it throws me off pretty hard yeah but we'll talk about it in a moment okay okay
anyway anyway so um so it's not a matter of like your
battery's good or your battery is bad so your performance is like great or your performance is like poo um yeah it's
it's like it's a spectrum you know um so this was originally applied to the
iphone se 6 and has now been applied to the iphone 7 and the 6s and it's being
planned for future devices um so part of the problem though um
okay blah they could have broke the phones up front instead of breaking them a year after launch they wouldn't be as
oppressive and competitive okay you know what let's let's get into this because the rest of
this is all kind of opinion stuff um
hit me what are your thoughts i don't like it
okay can i i'm gonna can i play devil's advocate on this one because if you're
gonna be if you're gonna not like it then i'm gonna make the counter argument here
um your Android phone gets slow within a matter of weeks anyway
even if the battery is perfect i haven't really used an iphone very
much but don't they do pretty much the same thing and mine doesn't do in a matter of weeks
to be fair okay so the pixel lasts a little longer
it lasts quite a while quite a while longer and then i just reformatted it and then
it was totally fine again i'm on the pixel 2 xl right now i'm quite happy
with the with the uh mine took like over half a year okay look i'm not supposed
to be on your side so and then i reformatted it and then it was fine
again let's all let's bear in mind though that like samsung owns the lion's
share of Android right now okay and i'm
not defending samsung yeah so okay so so you know hey at least your
performance is good for a year and then i refer
but then you can just you can't do that on an iphone it doesn't solve the
problem no it doesn't solve the problem you're right so i have the ability to
solve the problem my iphone doesn't
you're not winning here
okay i don't like that because this way like say say i'm not a
techie person look i tried
say i'm not a wreck say i'm not i've read wrecked in the in the
chat uh say i'm not a techie person yeah let's say that and you're my buddy and
you're like wow way to be way to be with that little eye gesture thing um and and
i have a phone and i'm complaining to you that it got slower yeah if it's an
Android phone you can be like hey back up all your stuff reformat it put it
back on everything's fine if it's an iphone you can be like
go buy a new iphone no i guess yeah
so really the upsetting thing here is not
apple um degrading the performance to me
that actually doesn't bother me and it wouldn't surprise me if other people
were doing it and it wouldn't oh yeah a big deal to me oh i would not be even
remotely surprised at all if it was on the other side of the field as well so
the part that is bothering me is that
apple is shipping these devices with batteries that are not only not user
upgradable because i've that ship has sailed i've gotten over that but that
are difficult to diy repair upgrade um
or i shouldn't have said user upgradeable user replaceable but they're difficult even as someone with a
reasonable amount of diy knowledge like i have replaced phone batteries before
even on ones with non-replaceable batteries like it's it's not rocket
science if you're careful and you go slow yeah um
but they they're making these devices that are difficult to replace the battery for
and they are running them so close to
the red line that surely they must know when they're
shipping these things because it's not like lithium ion or lithium polymer
batteries are especially new technology at this point apple in particular has
done tons of research in this field they
know exactly what's going to happen with this thing
pretty much perfectly and they're making a conscious decision
like the fact that the iphone 7 is affected they're making a conscious
decision to run them so close to the red line
sorry this side redline that they can only handle it for a year
can you imagine if a car manufacturer did this like
let's say for example that volkswagen
nothing against volkswagen let's say for example they're like not that long ago
giant issues but yeah let's say for example volkswagen shipped a car that
had great emissions for the first year
okay yeah and then when all the press
had stopped benchmarking it and all those users
well they're just plumb out of warranty
let's say hypothetically that when nobody was looking they made it so the
emissions were bad
would that not be kind of similar and now to be clear we're not talking
about a a 10 year old car that just don't run
the way it used to that's okay this is very targeted you
know that's why you know that's why well bc used to anyway bc had a um a program
called air care where people would have to take very old vehicles and they would
have to demonstrate that they've been keeping them up well enough they don't
have really difficult horrible emissions it was like a huge problem
um and you know i i had a car before that i used to have
to make sure i had a nice fresh oil change in it nice fresh oil change on
the highway for a while anyway uh premium gas yeah yeah we know all the
anyway so the point is the point is this is
um i really don't think okay so my iphone 4 my iphone 4 is really slow and
i get it that's a really old device that also you know is not getting security
updates anymore like really has no no right to be to be used like as a daily
driver at this point um and and i could and the thing too is like i could
replace it with something that would be a much better experience for an amount
of money that i consider reasonable to tell someone
just upgrade your device like i could upgrade to an iphone 5s and that would
be way better i could get a cheap 5s i'd get a way better experience and i could
probably do that for i don't know what a 5s is worth it can't be more than like around 100 bucks like i can't even yeah
not very much i don't know i don't know don't quote me on that the point is
apple is not doing that with
six-year-old devices apple
is doing this with devices that are well within
what i would consider to be the the prime of their lives a one-year-old
phone is not an old phone you're looking at used 150 give or take 10 20. okay and
new 200 240. okay and but i consider i
consider a used phone if you're on a budget a perfectly reasonable thing to
do yeah so so i'm not that far off
um so i can't i can't defend what they're
doing because it really feels misleading i'd like for them to be chasing that
headline they're chasing that headline the iphone's the fastest have they um
posted anything in response to this um
i'm actually you know what to be perfectly honest i'm not sure because to
flip sides on you a little bit i wonder if there is some legitimate technical
reason to the point of trying to reduce
issues with these batteries um
maybe using them at the same rate as before it could could produce critical
situations where you have because batteries
sorry shut downs shutdowns
yeah preventing shutdown we talked about that already preventing shutdowns uh
battery issues having a lithium-ion battery in your pocket is
like not cool um and has become really common but is like
super sketchy and luckily these manufacturers of things have been doing
things mostly right outside of samsung that one time you know yeah bombs um
you know funny to joke about now uh
so i don't know it could have something to do with that i haven't personally
seen an official statement anywhere yeah they they've acknowledged that they're
doing it they've said it's to prevent shutdowns um but basically the the the
cold hard truth is they're only doing this so that they can they can run it
right at the red line for a while
knowing that no one's gonna no one's gonna benchmark
it and no one's gonna give this the kind of press like even now we're talking
about it now but when the iphone x2 or whatever maybe they'll take on
like a final fantasy-esque sort of naming yeah i don't know what they're
gonna do yeah um maybe when the the iphone x2 rolls around
by the time that happens we're not going to be talking about this again we're not
going to be like here's the review of the new iphone x2 by the way your iphone
10 now performs like this and your iphone 8 now performs like this
wow but we can but you can't because it won't even necessarily be applicable
maybe maybe mine is still running at 98
but maybe there are other people out there who let's say they use wireless charging all the time uh
which by the way like apple won't say yes it degrades it
and i can't say like like with absolute certainty yes it will degrade it this
amount but it will degrade it some amount we don't know how much but heat
is bad we know this heat is bad for batteries
and wireless charging produces more heat so someone who's running around like
leaving their phone on a wireless charger trickle charging all the time for example or who just uses a wireless
charger at night unnecessarily instead of plugging in
they could be at risk of actually degrading the performance of their phone
a year or two down the line so this is something like we're going to
want to keep talking about but i really don't know if it's uh
i really don't know if it's going to keep people's attention the way that a shiny fast new iphone does
okay um let's get let's get through our sponsors
and then we'll talk about luke leaving Linus media group sure
see how i made them stay tuned like that
uh so first up is squarespace
think about it this might be your last squarespace sponsor spot
as an lng employee okay yeah isn't that crazy
maybe i know i also put a little bit of a spoiler in there i think we're going to continue working with squarespace for
a long time yeah squarespace is the place to go to you
know let's say you weren't employed with your old employer anymore let's say you
had to create an online portfolio wow you know wow
jesus
if i needed to do that i'd have 24 7 live chat and email support which would
be great it would only cost me twelve dollars a month because apparently i don't have a job anymore except i do
i'm not sure um all their great templates feature
responsive design so they'll look great if your potential employer is looking at
them on a laptop computer or on their slow year old phone
they've got a lot of great features like their logo designer and cover pages uh
the ability to publish content in apple news format directly from the squarespace blog every site includes
commerce like if you wanted to i don't know spend all that spare time that you
might have uh weaving little etsy baskets
you could sell them through your squarespace yes uh if you if you sign up for a year
you get a free domain yep so head over to squarespace.com
and use offer code when to get 10
off which leads us right into our next
sponsor spot i fix it so let's say that
the basket weaving doesn't doesn't work out for you there yeah maybe you want to
get into small-time electronics repair like replacing batteries and phones
ifixit has got the tools for you they've got everything from suction cups to
their 64-bit driver kit to their like
big tool pack with like the magnetic sheet that has all the little uh it's
like dry erase so you can write what everything is and you can stick all the screws to it super handy esd straps
they've got everything and they've got the guides so you won't actually know
have to know a damn thing about electronic repair yeah to start up a
squarespace site get your ifixit kit and
start repairing electronics go to ifixit.com
Linus and get the fully loaded protect tool kit for just 60 us dollars and then
once that starts going well great when you need to do all your accounting
for your small business then you use your ifixit tools on that
you advertise on your squarespace site you can use freshbooks
oh that is that is a that is a grand slam
concert lineup right i feel like this was set up oh that was fun
and you can create and send slick looking invoices oh boy in just seconds
freshbooks is everything you need as a small business owner or a freelancer to
help you keep track of your time with their timesheet function manage your
expenses and keep track of who owes you
what as for me LMG only owing you

technically technically well okay well yeah i think it's going to be the other
way around because you you get the okay we'll get into that
we'll get into that um freshbooks has tons of great features

you know what fresh books is one of those ones where i've like poked the bear i've tempted fate i've said
it's one of the sponsors one of the few sponsors that we have never gotten a
complaint it still hasn't we still and we still haven't gotten one not nothing
credible i shouldn't say we've never gotten one because we might have gotten something but
i've never because i will actually escalate things personally to a brand if
something comes through and they're an actual customer but nothing has ever
made it to my desk i have never seen a comment it's impressive so go get a 30
day free trial at the link in the video description freshbooks.com tech tips
enter the WAN Show in the how to do your vote section oh that's weird our lower
third says when well try them both
all right so you're leaving Linus media group or are
you being fired i don't i literally don't know how is that going to work does it have
to leave that has to legally work in a way oh yeah oh yeah like you're gone
you're done no i know but which one like it has to be one right oh uh
no well no it's it's that it's yeah i'm not paying your weight off yeah and
you're not laid off so i think technically you have to quit i have to
have to quit what if i don't quit this sucks
um what happens um yeah no i'm pretty sure you have to wait
because your other employer Floatplane media
it's gonna be like what the hell yeah it's gonna be like uh yo
by the way it may actually be a conflict of interest for you to maintain your
position yeah absolutely yeah yeah so um
so luke is not quitting quitting he's just
quitting um yeah confusing so i'm still going to be
on WAN Show if Linus ever actually lets me uh make a video i will make a video
uh i'm going to be at sea we're working on that one soon together
oh yeah that's not really oh that's going to be fun it'll be fun yeah it's
not like it's not real and you have i'm not sure if i should make a video on that thing i think you
should i don't it's not as cool oh all
right well if nothing else we could do the classic
react and just have some fun with it yeah yeah anyway we'll see well i do
want to still do some stuff um you might just need to sign up okay i
got this i got this um okay so anyways
Floatplane has been my full-time thing for quite a while now so most of this
stuff is just stuff happening on paper that doesn't actually mean anything for
you guys i'm still going to be on wayne show every week um
uh we'll be doing ces coverage and we're doing ces coverage so i'll be making
videos down there for sure uh i won't be making as many as you
until i get to handle like most of the load myself this year which is great
yeah i'm hoping i still think uh planned for that
there's some perceptionally confusing stuff with the scheduling side of things
i think i can do more than i'm currently scheduled for oh okay so we'll see how
that goes but um
yeah i i yeah basically nothing's gonna change on your side of things i'll still
be doing ces i'll still be doing WAN Show i'm just going to be doing a video
every now and then just
kind of you know not that often and i will be more on paper same with
everyone that is currently a Floatplane person will be more on paper a float
plane person because right now we're all technically like Linus media groups yeah
so right now Linus media group is paying the bills but starting january 1st
formally Floatplane media is starting up as a separate company
Floatplane media is acquiring the
employees and the intellectual property from Linus media group that will um the
trademarks all that kind of stuff and it will become its own
separate legal entities so we were joking about it earlier on the show but
we are actually going to like put tape down on the floor maybe put up a sign or
something like make it kind of fun and Floatplane media will have an office
it'll be here within this building but legally speaking
well it'll it'll be it's it's like you have to listen to yeah it's like you're
renting space Linus media group will be subleasing yeah some of the property to
Floatplane media and floatplay media like has to pay for it like like legally
other you can't give stuff away at least here in bc yeah like you can't give away
a car to a friend unless it's like under a certain value
because you have to pay tax on it there's there's taxation problems with
that so like Linus media group can't just be like we're buddies you can use our office
space um so we have to actually start doing everything by the book which is um
both terrifying and uh really exciting
because yeah i have something really cool to show you guys that we weren't
100 sure if we were going to show you i still don't think it's a great idea but
you know what i want to do it this is so cool um
line is the screen i'm even i'm even going to put i'm even just going to get
rid of us we're just going to we're just going to go float slow plane front and
center oh yeah that's all fine that's just places i go um
here we go so this is the sign in screen now to be clear this won't work for you
guys yet my account was manually created by
manually creating entries in the database we're just going to not talk about that and we're not going to talk
about that okay what just happened
lol there it is okay crying out loud
okay so this is a sneak peek
at the pre-alpha pre-alpha of Floatplane.com
so you can see here um there's a few things like like what what can i what
can i show should i click on a video sure okay that one so razer phone um the
review of the razer phone is one of the videos that is up on Floatplane but is
not yet up on youtube so you can see here the video content is really front
and center in the design um some of these things are going to end up tweaked
just to be clear like this is we're calling it pre-alpha because
everyone hears beta and thinks basically finished product yeah because that's
changed in my lifetime but this is yeah let's call it pre-alpha even though it's
it's if you like go with how that structure worked when i was
young this is like a beta if you go with how that structure works now with things
like the early access games on stream then this is a like pre-alpha
however however you want to see it it's early on yeah so
man that player that's good man so there's a lot of
stuff that you might not have expected from a pre-alpha stage type product so
we've got thumbnail previews working one of our guys yuki has worked really hard
and gotten it so that our color profiles
are wider than places like youtube so if you have something like a really dark
shot you'll be able to see more on our platform we can't show you the proper
comparison for that right now it's not my content don't think it would come
through twitch anyways yeah so we can't really show you um also
there's a guy that i don't know if i can say his name yet i haven't asked him has
been working on live streaming really heavily uh you can see live testing i
don't think i'm currently running it right now so yeah that's really worried about that but um
should we talk about that yeah i think we should totally talk about it hold on
i want to go i want to go a little bit oh yeah oh yeah yeah let's talk about
that okay hold on let's let's pull back to us for a second then yeah
so kyle from bitwit he's gonna be
the plan is the last time i heard from him is um
oh oh he's like now is now a good time for
you to show me the ropes no i'm streaming right now um so kyle is actually planning to do
the first public facing Floatplane
live stream like the first official one not a test yeah um tonight so if you are
subscribed to bit with ultra on Floatplane then uh right now that's
still running through the linustechtips.com forum yeah uh i'm just
gonna paste that link another guy on the team that i don't know if i can say his
name publicly has been working really hard on the new payment system which is
awesome because the current payment system is horrible terrible and we're
going to do it right um and we're going to have an awesome payment system coming
yep the best payment system the best the greatest payment system um
so that's really exciting so you guys might want to check out bitwit that'll
be the first Floatplane live stream from a creator
um let's just go back to let's go back to this here Linus's screen
so that's still running which is good yeah i i can't show you guys right now
um but we have a chat system working for
the live stream um and that chat system has like basic
moderation tools and highlighting for when the creator talks in the chat and
all this other kind of really cool stuff that um
i don't know if i can say name has been working really hard on um and it
actually looks pretty good this is pretty cool uh we've got comments
working we are going to have thumbs down because we believe that some comments
deserve a thumbs down damn it yeah um they do downvoting is important these
are real people by the way these are people actually using the site these are our pre-alpha testers
so this is one you can see it's uh shaded green because i thumbs it up a
few people thumbs that up we don't have replies working but that's coming yeah
that's coming yep it's being worked on uh everyone on the floor playing team
has been like going super hard i i i
even told like everybody that they could leave early today and people are still
talking in the work chat because they're watching the stream um right now i can
see you on my phone um which is like that's that's pretty
hardcore i don't know so this is pretty cool there's a live button here um so
kyle's channel when he's live hopefully we would be
able to uh yeah we're gonna have so we're gonna have the standard like there will be a thumbnail sitting here kind of
situation there will be some stuff you can fill in here this is just placeholder text right now
i'm subscribed to kyle as you can see and then this is that this is a chat so
yeah so that you can talk hello
just go ahead and just do that there so you can oh wait they could see it
already so uh so that's what the live streaming will look like um let's go ahead and go
back to our stuff we can talk about some of the stuff that's on there so we've got um the lg gram late 2017 that video
is up we've got best case under 35 bucks this is what luke was referring to
earlier when he was saying the editors when they upload the videos or not using
like the real title like this is just our file name um
yeah they don't they don't realize that it's public facing now because that's a
feature that we've had for a long time the ability to put a title and
description and keywords and stuff but it's never actually been public facing
because we've just been posting them into the forum so that's great dale the sleeper is live
now so that's uh the sequel to hubert the sleeper this is a really cool
machine you guys uh razer phone is up uh the oh the quad core blade stealth
that video is up lenovo thinkpad anniversary edition that's up on
Floatplane and we do have some exclusive content over there as well so this is a
pretty cool little look at the um
the guts did you see this uh yes yeah so this is like kind of the
equivalent of a developing kit a developer kit for automated cars really
cool it's really cool stuff i don't recognize almost any of these
but the number of sensors in this thing is freaking bananas so it's just a
little three minute uh three minute tour of that i actually think i have another
update that's going to go up uh probably sometime this weekend so
um should i show them the cms so another
another cool thing that's working um there's no way to set it manually right
now uh but automatic uh quality changing
yeah yeah you can definitely show that automatic quality changing is going to work on the stream which is really cool
aj's been working on that and a huge amount of other things um for quite a
while so that's i'm stoked that that's working so
um oh someone says they don't see dale on Floatplane oh crap i wonder if it's
like someone said it to the wrong status very recently we finished uh update uh
okay uh well what you'll know for sure then having seen that is that it's
coming very soon because the video is ready
we very recently finished an update that allows for like the public private
unlisted style setup that most uh video platform sites have
and uh the people uploading the videos haven't started using it yet so
everything's just been public on that site
so there you go um got people asking about ijustine um i
definitely have talked to justine about it um i'm okay here's the thing
i haven't talked to that many people about it just because i haven't had
anything to show them up until about this week other than like um still
images and because you don't want to it's a
weird balance of like we don't want to do the
always in beta thing yeah then we've been in production since before we had
anything yeah so we have kind of always been in beta but then we didn't want to
like advertise other creators before then and it's a chicken and egg thing
too because it's hard to you don't want to spend a year working on a platform if
you don't have any creators but you don't want to talk to creators about a
platform that doesn't exist that you don't have you don't want to make
promises that you can't back up so we've been really cautious and really careful
about what we can commit to and um you know we're we're doing our best
to to to keep from to keep from disappointing anybody i
think that's that's really the main thing for us is we're trying not to not to screw
anything up um will Floatplane
allow can girls i'm sure you mean cam girls and
no comment at this time one thing i will say about Floatplane is that we do
intend for it to be fairly non-restrictive in terms of the kind of
content creators that can be there well there's there's also yeah there's no
should we go into that and go into it slightly i don't think we should go into
a ton of detail i mean this is rancho we can still do a little bit of tech news we've done like two topics um but it's
something that it's extremely unlikely that a
conventional cam girl will be on the platform
but if there's like an artistic element we're going to look into that side of
things maybe yeah so we'll see we're not sure yet we're going to work with like
we're going to work with creators and like friends of ours like that's who we're going to work with in terms of
like what they want this platform to be because right now we're just building a
toolbox and we want people to use it the way
that the way that they want to use it my phone's dying uh buy all the Floatplane
people that i don't know if i can say your name great work people are like body paint very happy to show it that's
going to be a great area see like i don't we don't know um
we're going to it's it's going to take talking to people it's going to take planning we're not really focused on
that right now yeah Intel cp uh until CPU yeah Intel ceo and
kind of the CPU um we are going to take more risks the original article here is
from techsbot.com let's go ahead and actually
click that and see if that's going to work for me there yeah how's that going minus the screen
we're going to take more risks we are taking the bull by the horns
that is some pretty corporate speak right there here's a letter that um
brian kurzanich wrote to the employees
2017 comes to a close almost impossible to predict the future one cool thing is
that Intel is almost a 50 50 company which is to say that half the revenue
comes from the pc and half from new
things that they have tried to create and it's weird to think
of Intel as an underdog but in a lot of those markets they are you know you look
at Intel and the way they tried to break into phones for example yeah disaster
yeah um but that doesn't mean that they're gonna
stop doing that they're just gonna keep trying new things and uh see if they can
grow that way apparently so that's good
i guess um do you want to talk about the magic leap
we still don't really know much yeah i guess we can go through this pretty quickly i can talk about it though one
they have an amazing website you should go to their actual native website it's
really cool yeah it is really cool i'm just gonna i'm gonna go to it
it's like you scroll down like it's like coming out of like it's crystal ball
it's actually worth looking at um
just because it's like just really cool yeah that scroll didn't work as well as
it's supposed to there you go yeah see that so i'm scrolling with my
touchpad right now and it like goes out of this like thing and then you start
actually scrolling down the page then it looks like a normal website so there's a few things that we can see here one is
that this is photoshopped
is it that's hilarious that's a render yeah yeah there's absolutely no way
look at this i don't buy it that's hilarious yeah
like let's see see the light coming off his face on this side and see the way
that this is lit like you can tell they tried
but no i don't buy it huh either way i believe those are
translucent lenses they show it somewhere else
that's pretty cool and the fact that you can yeah so you can see through it
uh which is super cool digital light field
um scroll up a little bit i noticed one thing you know i've been talking been
talking about this this since the garage
compute that is untethered from the wall yup but is not
up on your head that's really cool um that's a way
better approach i remember we had joked about doing um like a wearable computer where we
literally like strapped a ups to the back and like a power supply so you
could have like a full desktop experience but wearing the whole thing as a
bodysuit as opposed to putting the whole thing in a backpack yeah um
but like that's actually a very cool idea having having untethered but also
tethered uh but where it's tethered to you is very cool sdk is coming
interesting i signed up as a
reporter there's different ways that you can sign up you can sign up as a
developer or whatever else i sign up as a reporter i'm waiting to hear back this
is super interesting open up displays all over the
room yeah gaming in
ar basically yeah
the fact that the fact that you can see through the lenses is very cool because
the there isn't that many of those that are
actually you can you can that you can get that are any good and
aren't basically just fakes so they're saying they're going to ship
in 2018 yeah and you get that controller which doesn't look like the most gamery
controller it looks like an experiential controller yeah but that doesn't mean it
won't be compatible with other controllers yeah usb type-c looks like
this looks like a wireless that's the compute
no no this looks like oh oh is it the whole thing is the compute thing i'm not
sure i think that might be wireless charge module on the bottom because if
not that's a lot to tuck into a belt or whatever yeah uh but that is the compute
unit we can run up and have a look at the the guy who had it on yeah i think
that's just it looks like it's in his pocket though that doesn't look like
it's going through his belt so it could be really bulky on the inside actually
um i haven't read the individual things i
think i think the bulk does go here actually we've got a better look at it here so you can kind of see that it
looks like that big bulky thing does go into his pocket i like that that looks
quite robust yeah i mean too because you're gonna be moving around quite a bit but the thing is is that if you make
it too robust then it just wears it uh yeah i know yeah so yeah we've run into
that before that's for sure yeah it looks really well done though so
yeah these guys have gotten a lot of funding including from Intel speaking of
experimental things that Intel's done um so is it better than a backpack i guess
i would i would think so it looks like it's gonna be about the same performance
scale as the ones that intend to have it built into the headset but adding weight
to the headset is not in my opinion the right way to do it and having it so that
it can go on in like your pocket or something that sounds cool alliance and
i've been talking about the compute and storage disk that goes in
your pocket for the last like four years um so i'm i'm stoked that it's happening
in a way um blah blah blah
i may be wrong about Intel having uh backed magically google for sure alibaba
for sure um but yeah i might be i might have been
wrong about that one i thought they were one of the ones that had put some money into it apparently they've raised about
two billion dollars so far geez and they have shown like basically nothing
publicly yeah uh NVIDIA ended driver support for
32-bit operating systems so the original article there this was posted by
matrix07012 on the forum the original article is from NVIDIA
whoops but i don't know what i just did there we go
um yeah so i get it
like if you bought Windows 10 32-bit like you really suck at buying Windows i
literally didn't even know that was a thing yeah it's pretty dumb why did they even do
that um i don't know compatibility was like really wacko stuff i guess i would
just run the previous os duran senkay uh yeah but then you wouldn't get security
updates like microsoft story has to be get the security yeah
blah last version of Windows etc um
AMD confirmed second generation ryzen processors to debut in q1 2018. cool so
they'll be like a little bit more better um
yeah to be clear second generation does not mean zen two
so we can expect tweaks not uh not not
twerks still cool yep still cool
um that's exciting it's cool to see them actually continuing to release stuff wm
groom aka posted this on the forum seagate has announced
multi-actuator technology yeah
so now uh i thought this was a graphic
here we go yeah there it goes so now
you can actually boost performance by
having the read and write heads
move to different parts of the disk independently so if you need something
that's on this platter this head can go get it and if you need something that's
on this platter this head can go get it and they don't have to wait for each other so this is kind of like sli for
hard drives but like inside the drive yeah
in the past and like is actually becoming a thing instead of becoming
less of things yeah so in the past all of those heads would have had to move um
in synchronization whereas now they can split up now to be clear you won't
expect to double the performance no much like sli um but what you will get is
potentially much improved uh random
reads and writes yes i mean i'm not gonna say that it's you
know gonna get up there with an SSD but it's gonna be a lot better i would
think and like if if you're in like a torturous
situation where hard drives would like really really really start bottlenecking
then this one should feel it much less yeah
um okay there's actually a lot more stuff
in here but like the show is most assuredly over because it is a
definitely christmas break and people definitely want to go home and i'm
definitely not done shooting mining adventure part two over there
so um that's pretty much it
uh oh wait no are we good yeah yeah i think so
uh if you are a bit with ultra subscriber yeah um either myself or kyle
or Linus will post a thing on how to view his live stream oh yeah right in
the bit with ultra sub forum yeah on the
actual forum forum like not on the Floatplane site the Floatplane site is
still closed pre-alpha oh yeah i'm gonna have
like at least a few hours of support tickets again this weekend explaining
that that is not the site people are supposed to go to uh
that happens every time
guys please do not write luca's support ticket
because then the site development will be slower
um it probably won't affect it that much
that's i'm trying to scare them yeah it'll be so all right see you again next
week same bat time same bat channel why isn't this playing
i don't know what's going on here that happened before right click yeah properties
yeah uh uh
okay wow
that should have worked but did the property okay
team i believe i'm on the why not both team
merry christmas happy holidays um jovial
time off whatever doesn't make you unhappy yeah
like mary ptl
that's what americans call it oh paid time off
yeah oh hold on hold on we're still streaming
