1 00:00:01,800 --> 00:00:08,120 all right my friends welcome to the W 2 00:00:05,920 --> 00:00:12,559 show we've got a great show for you guys today and by we I mean I have a great 3 00:00:10,639 --> 00:00:17,080 show for you guys today because while I will potentially have 4 00:00:15,519 --> 00:00:23,119 someone sitting in this chair in fact they might rotate in and out I am 5 00:00:19,600 --> 00:00:26,880 without my one my only my 6 00:00:23,119 --> 00:00:28,960 flame Luke today 7 00:00:26,880 --> 00:00:35,520 Luke is gone for 8 00:00:30,840 --> 00:00:37,160 today to a wedding not his wedding so I 9 00:00:35,520 --> 00:00:42,160 really didn't feel like it was that important compared to being here with me 10 00:00:38,719 --> 00:00:45,039 for w show but he insisted on taking a 11 00:00:42,160 --> 00:00:50,039 banked day for one of the days that he has already worked so what could I 12 00:00:47,760 --> 00:00:55,000 really say other than you vicious bastard how dare you I'm now Luke I'm 13 00:00:52,640 --> 00:01:00,519 the new Luke you're tall but you're not strong like 14 00:00:56,280 --> 00:01:02,559 Luke well not yet there are armor you 15 00:01:00,519 --> 00:01:05,439 can't get any closer to me but yeah we're not centered okay now we're a 16 00:01:04,519 --> 00:01:10,080 little more centered in the frame so yeah I'll have be having Taran join me today and probably some other people who 17 00:01:08,680 --> 00:01:15,240 actually know things about tech at some point um and then I think yeah without 18 00:01:13,360 --> 00:01:19,400 further Ado I'll kick off what we've got for our topics today so Windows 10 19 00:01:17,439 --> 00:01:24,119 according to an article from Forbes is apparently sending your PC's data to 20 00:01:21,720 --> 00:01:29,119 Microsoft although there has been some debate as to 21 00:01:25,960 --> 00:01:30,119 uh what exactly it is that's going on 22 00:01:29,119 --> 00:01:35,560 there I mean look at this guy I can't even figure out how to turn a laptop on although in your defense that one is 23 00:01:32,880 --> 00:01:41,439 kind of tricky to turn on uh AMD Zen based optons shown up in slides in a 24 00:01:39,360 --> 00:01:44,399 debate at CERN which is pretty interesting I mean it's not like it was 25 00:01:42,840 --> 00:01:47,759 so much of a stretch that AMD is probably going to have opteron products 26 00:01:46,479 --> 00:01:55,399 based on their Zen architecture but there you go now there are slides to go with them AMD's Polaris graphics cards 27 00:01:52,320 --> 00:01:57,880 will apparently make the minimum VR spec 28 00:01:55,399 --> 00:02:03,920 more affordable for everyone this just in new graphics cards will make higher 29 00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:09,599 performance and lower prices more possible wow that's really new news more 30 00:02:06,680 --> 00:02:13,000 at 11 did you just increase the size of my Tex really small well you're supposed 31 00:02:11,200 --> 00:02:16,040 to use your computer well I'm going to but you were just like leaning really 32 00:02:14,280 --> 00:02:21,440 forward also how do I get to it on my computer well you I don't know where the 33 00:02:18,440 --> 00:02:23,560 what the link is uh well oh for crying 34 00:02:21,440 --> 00:02:27,920 out loud Taran we'll do this while we roll the intro okay all right I got one 35 00:02:25,800 --> 00:02:33,560 more I got one more topic to uh to throw out here Intel according to tell chips 36 00:02:30,840 --> 00:02:38,879 to become slower but more efficient more at 11 Oh 37 00:02:39,879 --> 00:02:46,040 weird I sign as myself uh 38 00:02:47,720 --> 00:02:55,599 yes there can only be one caring are you going to talk about the uh gravity 39 00:02:53,640 --> 00:02:58,920 waves no actually I don't have that in the dock oh it's so cool you can talk 40 00:02:57,400 --> 00:03:02,959 about gravity about although I don't know enough are we still are they still 41 00:03:01,360 --> 00:03:06,519 hearing us yes they can still hear us they can still hear us because we don't 42 00:03:04,360 --> 00:03:10,480 have a very good audio control board well no they can hear us on purpose I 43 00:03:08,040 --> 00:03:14,040 can make them not hear us oh okay I always assumed that was a mistake on 44 00:03:11,879 --> 00:03:17,879 your part no every single time I can make them stop hearing us immediately no 45 00:03:16,239 --> 00:03:22,920 I I want them I want because Luke and I will often you know my good co-host and 46 00:03:20,280 --> 00:03:26,360 I will often chat while the intro is rolling and we'll pretend that we don't 47 00:03:25,040 --> 00:03:31,959 know that the audience can hear us and they'll be all like we can still hear you in the chat and it's fun it's it's 48 00:03:30,000 --> 00:03:35,879 fun to have fun but you have to know how that's really fun all right let's go 49 00:03:33,360 --> 00:03:40,720 ahead and uh a link to the dock still oh you still need a link to the dock oh you 50 00:03:37,360 --> 00:03:42,439 want to look at the dock I see all right 51 00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:46,519 there you go all right enjoy enjoy the dock yay so let's get into our first 52 00:03:45,040 --> 00:03:52,720 topic really quick here this was posted by tofu man89 on the Forum and the 53 00:03:49,640 --> 00:03:54,680 original article here is from Forbes so 54 00:03:52,720 --> 00:03:58,840 let's go ahead and oh what the hey we'll look at forbes's quote of the day and 55 00:03:56,519 --> 00:04:02,519 their interesting topics let's see if they suggest the topic we're about to 56 00:04:00,480 --> 00:04:06,879 look at no they don't interesting all right thank you for that 57 00:04:04,640 --> 00:04:11,480 so this is an article written by Gordon Kelly and that's the Windows 10 worst 58 00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:16,560 secret spins out of control there have actually been quite a 59 00:04:13,760 --> 00:04:20,199 few Updates this is very much a go go it won't let me open it as Taran it wants 60 00:04:18,479 --> 00:04:23,880 me to be luke then just sign in with a different account well I'm not Luke 61 00:04:22,079 --> 00:04:28,840 though that then that's why you click sign in I signed in well you're just 62 00:04:27,479 --> 00:04:32,160 you're with a different account I already did this there then you sign in 63 00:04:30,520 --> 00:04:36,000 as Teran well why do I have to sign in twice all right all right do your thing 64 00:04:34,000 --> 00:04:42,440 do your thing all right oh wait what it still wants me to be luke uh what yeah 65 00:04:39,960 --> 00:04:47,800 use a different browser oh for heaven s go all right so basically the gist of 66 00:04:45,320 --> 00:04:53,440 this article is that or the the claim that this article makes is that by going 67 00:04:50,560 --> 00:05:00,560 through a process that involved using a DDWRT if I recall correctly uh DDWRT 68 00:04:56,960 --> 00:05:03,800 firmware flashed router um the author 69 00:05:00,560 --> 00:05:06,080 well the author pulled from a post on 70 00:05:03,800 --> 00:05:11,440 some Reddit clone or something where the guy took that router and analyzed what 71 00:05:09,080 --> 00:05:17,080 was happening like how many how many attempts his fresh install of Windows 10 72 00:05:14,039 --> 00:05:19,919 in a VM was making to communicate and 73 00:05:17,080 --> 00:05:24,400 with whom and determined that many of those servers were indeed Microsoft 74 00:05:22,039 --> 00:05:30,560 servers in spite of the user having turned off as many of uh Windows 10's 75 00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:32,280 phone home features as was possible at 76 00:05:30,560 --> 00:05:35,520 least on the consumer versions I was wondering about that when I was 77 00:05:33,880 --> 00:05:40,039 listening to all this Barnacle stuff that he posted about how to disable it 78 00:05:37,000 --> 00:05:45,360 all I'm like how do you know for sure 79 00:05:40,039 --> 00:05:48,479 that it's been disabled yeah so now so 80 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:51,080 okay this was a user on vote by the way 81 00:05:48,479 --> 00:05:58,360 I believe the original post has actually been pulled down deleted by user at this 82 00:05:54,120 --> 00:06:00,280 point um now I did read another very 83 00:05:58,360 --> 00:06:05,160 very interesting article in in response to this this was also posted in the 84 00:06:01,880 --> 00:06:07,800 lonus tech tips uh Forum post about this 85 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:11,680 where another another author completely different site came out and said well 86 00:06:09,280 --> 00:06:16,280 hold on a second why don't we have a look at what all of this traffic is and 87 00:06:14,240 --> 00:06:21,120 it turned out that a very significant chunk of it was legitimate traffic 88 00:06:19,080 --> 00:06:26,120 checking in with Microsoft's activation server for example to see if you've 89 00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:28,440 activated Windows which is fair play um 90 00:06:26,120 --> 00:06:35,000 some of them were even requests to the npt time server uh or ntp whatever it is 91 00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:39,840 the were just requests to a Time server to check the clock and make sure that it 92 00:06:37,160 --> 00:06:44,479 was accurate which as far as my experience has been never works anyway 93 00:06:41,759 --> 00:06:48,000 so I just assume it didn't bother but uh that's a whole other topic of 94 00:06:45,680 --> 00:06:52,720 conversation and so that author determined that at least I think it was 95 00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:56,240 something like 90% of this traffic was totally legitimate traffic and part of 96 00:06:54,319 --> 00:07:00,800 the reason why there might have been thousands and thousands of requests in a 97 00:06:58,840 --> 00:07:04,360 short period of time would have been that because of the way that the router 98 00:07:02,280 --> 00:07:09,120 was set up these requests weren't going through so it would have been making 99 00:07:06,000 --> 00:07:12,319 repeated attempts okay so the drama 100 00:07:09,120 --> 00:07:14,360 continues and um Gordon Kelly from 101 00:07:12,319 --> 00:07:18,560 Forbes writes a follow-up article saying well you know what my point wasn't 102 00:07:16,639 --> 00:07:25,280 necessarily the thousands of communication attempts and what exactly 103 00:07:22,160 --> 00:07:28,199 was being communicated my point was if 104 00:07:25,280 --> 00:07:33,120 that you are turning stuff down oh apparently uh oh apparent apparently I'm 105 00:07:29,879 --> 00:07:35,360 peeking I'm sorry the point was that if 106 00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:40,560 they are turning if they are if you're turning all this stuff off then they 107 00:07:37,840 --> 00:07:46,159 shouldn't be sending out anything um so 108 00:07:43,280 --> 00:07:51,960 originally originally Microsoft didn't really respond to Gordon Kelly's article 109 00:07:49,080 --> 00:08:00,039 to the first one but they have since responded Yes yes I I I know I know I'm 110 00:07:55,720 --> 00:08:01,199 sorry I'm sorry about what um 111 00:08:00,039 --> 00:08:07,240 I just turned it down the peing oh the peeking what can't we have 112 00:08:05,639 --> 00:08:11,080 like an auto gate or whatever the heck it's called on here to we we have a 113 00:08:09,400 --> 00:08:16,319 compressor but it's hard it audio is a big pain in the ass 114 00:08:14,520 --> 00:08:22,240 yeah I can tell you that from having to work with it okay well I can I can check 115 00:08:20,520 --> 00:08:27,479 real quick and see if we've managed to fix it but it'll be hard to tell because 116 00:08:24,159 --> 00:08:30,520 I'm talking a lot quieter now so uh whoa 117 00:08:27,479 --> 00:08:34,360 yeah likes to shout all of his things 118 00:08:30,520 --> 00:08:35,719 all the time I'm lonus okay so basically 119 00:08:34,360 --> 00:08:39,880 yeah you know this actually has an indicator so I I I could have been a lot 120 00:08:37,959 --> 00:08:44,640 more careful and I'm very very sorry to the audience right there I I that was 121 00:08:42,080 --> 00:08:51,440 that was very that was a mean thing to uh for for me to do turn down for what 122 00:08:47,680 --> 00:08:53,839 yeah yeah thank you for that okay so 123 00:08:51,440 --> 00:09:00,160 anyway the drama continues and Microsoft has now finally responded to the second 124 00:08:57,600 --> 00:09:05,760 to the follow-up article and and said that sometime this year they are going 125 00:09:03,279 --> 00:09:10,079 to make it possible to turn off everything um I think we have a somewhat 126 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:16,120 of a time frame for the Enterprise version but I don't know if we have a 127 00:09:11,480 --> 00:09:19,160 time frame for home or Pro users yet um 128 00:09:16,120 --> 00:09:22,680 but they recommend not turning it off 129 00:09:19,160 --> 00:09:25,600 and now to be clear I am not necessarily 130 00:09:22,680 --> 00:09:30,079 A tinfoil hat user you know I don't think that Microsoft cares what I ate 131 00:09:28,279 --> 00:09:34,480 for lunch personally I think they might care what everyone 132 00:09:32,240 --> 00:09:39,200 collectively is eating for lunch hence the anonymized data there is a lot of 133 00:09:36,320 --> 00:09:45,360 value to that anonymized data mining so I don't I don't think they care about me 134 00:09:41,800 --> 00:09:47,600 um but the problem here as the Forbes 135 00:09:45,360 --> 00:09:53,040 writer as Gordon Kelly has pointed out is that if you turn it off if you opt 136 00:09:50,000 --> 00:09:55,079 out it should be opted out it should be 137 00:09:53,040 --> 00:10:01,320 fully opted out and you should not have to send any further 138 00:09:57,959 --> 00:10:01,320 information so 139 00:10:01,760 --> 00:10:07,360 yeah I guess uh I I you know what here I 140 00:10:05,560 --> 00:10:11,480 want to hear from you guys I want to know if you care and you too you've just 141 00:10:09,839 --> 00:10:14,560 kind of sat there for now I mean I I have you have the dock yet I have no I 142 00:10:13,040 --> 00:10:21,680 have the dock I've been looking at gravitational waves stuff okay l so do 143 00:10:19,200 --> 00:10:25,279 you care if Microsoft do do you trust Microsoft to collect your personal data 144 00:10:23,480 --> 00:10:28,959 in a way that is not well can I finish the question to collect your personal 145 00:10:27,640 --> 00:10:34,760 data in a way that is not personally identic if iable and that is not 146 00:10:31,760 --> 00:10:39,880 ethically incorrect 147 00:10:34,760 --> 00:10:42,320 well I mean what data exactly cuz for 148 00:10:39,880 --> 00:10:45,600 something like a smartphone you kind of understand that it's a bit more public 149 00:10:44,279 --> 00:10:51,360 but on my personal computer um like I I I want I want 150 00:10:49,720 --> 00:10:57,120 privacy I want protection I want to be able to do whatever you know nefarious 151 00:10:54,959 --> 00:11:01,079 things I might get up to without Microsoft knowing about it even 152 00:10:58,839 --> 00:11:06,000 anonymous I don't know I mean if if any of you have read 1984 obviously bit of a 153 00:11:03,839 --> 00:11:10,160 different thing with Communism and all that but the the whole idea of my 154 00:11:08,600 --> 00:11:14,200 computer spying on me just kind of makes my skin crawl I don't like it I want to 155 00:11:12,519 --> 00:11:19,920 opt out completely that should be my choice yeah totally okay so riddle me 156 00:11:17,680 --> 00:11:24,560 this then why do you accept this on your phone well I I don't actually um why do 157 00:11:22,639 --> 00:11:29,680 you accept it more why did you even say that why is it that the phone feels less 158 00:11:27,600 --> 00:11:35,160 personal than the personal computer love I'd love to hear from you less personal 159 00:11:31,760 --> 00:11:39,680 yeah um well less 160 00:11:35,160 --> 00:11:41,399 private uh I don't know it's um it's it 161 00:11:39,680 --> 00:11:44,959 it it was really annoying to me when I first got a smartphone and you remember 162 00:11:42,920 --> 00:11:48,839 that cuz you gave me my first smartphone cuz I had a crappy Fisher Price looking 163 00:11:47,120 --> 00:11:54,079 phone he was literally not even using a flip phone he was still using a brick 164 00:11:50,839 --> 00:11:56,320 phone was awful um but like I don't know 165 00:11:54,079 --> 00:12:00,320 like they do make me uncomfortable I've just gotten used to it it's like boiling 166 00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:04,560 the Frog I mean every smartphone is basically a telescreen it's insane how 167 00:12:02,560 --> 00:12:10,279 much data they can track from you with a simple smartphone 168 00:12:07,399 --> 00:12:13,600 but I want my personal computer at least I mean I don't know maybe I just I'm not 169 00:12:11,639 --> 00:12:17,040 used to it yet maybe I haven't been boiled the Frog enough for my personal 170 00:12:15,800 --> 00:12:21,160 computer and that's what they're trying to do we've got some people in twitch 171 00:12:18,920 --> 00:12:24,519 chat saying because you use it in public so do you feel like because 172 00:12:23,399 --> 00:12:31,279 someone could be looking over your shoulder you're not in your own home yeah yeah yeah I I can see yeah maybe 173 00:12:28,800 --> 00:12:34,160 maybe that's the intuitive sort of idea that I'm getting here lead this leads 174 00:12:32,519 --> 00:12:39,680 really well into one of our other topics so I'm glad we're having this conversation but I want to jump back 175 00:12:36,959 --> 00:12:44,680 into the results of that straw pull do you care if Microsoft collects your data 176 00:12:41,680 --> 00:12:48,720 we've got a whopping 53% of you going 177 00:12:44,680 --> 00:12:51,959 with yes and 32% of you not caring and 178 00:12:48,720 --> 00:12:53,920 3% of you the correct or excuse me 15% 179 00:12:51,959 --> 00:12:59,639 of you going with the correct Choice which is of course turnip yeah whatever 180 00:12:57,480 --> 00:13:05,560 um you know what I I 181 00:13:01,160 --> 00:13:07,880 actually as far as evil companies go and 182 00:13:05,560 --> 00:13:13,160 yes I understand that this is this is kind of kind of dumb and that you know 183 00:13:11,079 --> 00:13:18,440 there's I I what I should be doing is spending all of my time you know VPN up 184 00:13:15,720 --> 00:13:25,959 and and turning off all reporting and creating custom you know custom firewall 185 00:13:21,639 --> 00:13:29,320 rules within my router to block any un I 186 00:13:25,959 --> 00:13:32,360 I installed Windows 10 and I left all 187 00:13:29,320 --> 00:13:34,440 the customer experience stuff on I I 188 00:13:32,360 --> 00:13:39,440 left it on default um if I'm going to trust Google with my data then I really 189 00:13:37,399 --> 00:13:44,000 think Microsoft is the lesser of two evils or has been the lesser of two 190 00:13:41,120 --> 00:13:50,800 evils over the last little while here um and I use so many Google services for so 191 00:13:46,639 --> 00:13:55,120 much of what I do even our company uses 192 00:13:50,800 --> 00:13:58,120 Google for our company emails which is 193 00:13:55,120 --> 00:14:00,199 like about as about as personal as 194 00:13:58,120 --> 00:14:05,720 anything about me actually gets really like the the innermost workings of my 195 00:14:02,320 --> 00:14:09,560 business um so I figure if Google's got 196 00:14:05,720 --> 00:14:11,079 it all then you know I'm just I'm almost 197 00:14:09,560 --> 00:14:14,959 kind of just waiting for the hammer to drop on all this like all these 198 00:14:13,519 --> 00:14:22,120 companies have all this information about you they haven't done anything super nefarious with it yet but maybe 199 00:14:19,639 --> 00:14:25,920 one day that we know that we know maybe one day they will I mean you know you'll 200 00:14:23,839 --> 00:14:29,440 get hauled Away by the secret police tonight maybe you know yeah we've got a 201 00:14:28,079 --> 00:14:33,040 lot of people talking in chat saying it's not as simple as a yes or no answer 202 00:14:31,440 --> 00:14:37,440 and I think that might be part of why we got so few responses to that straw poll 203 00:14:35,600 --> 00:14:40,759 because usually we get a lot more uh we've got people saying like well well 204 00:14:39,240 --> 00:14:46,720 just a second it depends what they're collecting I mean if Cortana or Siri 205 00:14:43,759 --> 00:14:52,160 wants to know when my appointment is um so that she can remind me then like cool 206 00:14:50,440 --> 00:14:56,920 or if they want to know my birthday so they can send me a little birthday wish 207 00:14:53,959 --> 00:15:00,360 or whatever I don't need that but well it's not about need it's about it's 208 00:14:58,480 --> 00:15:04,800 about making the user experience friendlier and that's what a lot of the 209 00:15:02,160 --> 00:15:08,680 data they're collecting is for yeah yeah yeah I mean but but the NSA also told us 210 00:15:07,240 --> 00:15:13,240 that they can you know they can be trusted to have our personal information 211 00:15:11,399 --> 00:15:17,360 and they totally turned out it couldn't be trusted y 212 00:15:15,000 --> 00:15:20,079 so and what if maybe they are totally trustworthy now and they have no 213 00:15:18,560 --> 00:15:23,240 nefarious intents they're just collecting this data to do the best 214 00:15:21,720 --> 00:15:26,959 things they can with it great customer experience and so on how do we know that 215 00:15:24,880 --> 00:15:31,240 won't change in the future we don't we don't we don't I mean you look at you 216 00:15:29,199 --> 00:15:36,880 look at how much Microsoft has changed in the last year with the CEO shift has 217 00:15:34,160 --> 00:15:41,759 it yeah I haven't noticed they're they're they're a pretty different 218 00:15:38,839 --> 00:15:46,160 company um and and I've heard this not just from you know media Outlets who 219 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:49,000 read very different press releases I've heard this from people internally at 220 00:15:47,680 --> 00:15:55,000 Microsoft they're saying it really is different there so I mean that's great 221 00:15:52,319 --> 00:15:59,519 um but what that means is if you can have an if you can have a change for the 222 00:15:57,040 --> 00:16:03,360 better with a with a with leadership change and we're not talking like hiring 223 00:16:01,440 --> 00:16:07,920 an outside CEO he didn't come from outside the company we're talking an 224 00:16:05,279 --> 00:16:10,800 internal guy um so if you can have a change for the better by putting a 225 00:16:09,399 --> 00:16:15,519 different internal guy in charge I think you can definitely have a change for the worse I mean imagine if we put Taran in 226 00:16:13,920 --> 00:16:20,720 charge of lonus Media Group that'd be a disaster all of our videos would be about robots well maybe not all of that 227 00:16:19,240 --> 00:16:25,480 speaking of which do we have our our co-host what the the the yeah the no 228 00:16:23,519 --> 00:16:29,440 he's over there I don't want to even I hate that thing so much I don't want to 229 00:16:26,759 --> 00:16:33,480 see it ever again hey I actually I have this is this is a good opportunity for a 230 00:16:30,759 --> 00:16:38,800 straw poll because I found that the live audience is actually a little bit 231 00:16:36,399 --> 00:16:44,639 different than the uh than the vaud audience the uh the Youtube audience so 232 00:16:41,440 --> 00:16:47,040 what do you think of taran's Hosting 233 00:16:44,639 --> 00:16:51,360 improvements if you guys have cuz I think that he has done a lot better oh I 234 00:16:49,839 --> 00:16:55,759 got a lot of really good comments interesting note on the video that I 235 00:16:54,120 --> 00:17:01,720 just finished editing right now which is the fly cly smart ped scooter kick 236 00:16:58,120 --> 00:17:03,800 assist ebug like I'm less good of a host 237 00:17:01,720 --> 00:17:07,760 I'm like more awkward and the reason is the prompto was so far away because we 238 00:17:06,480 --> 00:17:13,280 had to get the whole bike in the shot that I could barely read it and saw I was awkwardly reading off the prompter 239 00:17:11,039 --> 00:17:18,640 like this and it just was awful also there's no good teleprompter software in 240 00:17:15,199 --> 00:17:20,000 the universe nope so that also sucks 241 00:17:18,640 --> 00:17:25,039 there might be something but it's like anything in the professional production 242 00:17:21,720 --> 00:17:27,240 industry where the the the half yeah the 243 00:17:25,039 --> 00:17:31,000 half decent one is like add two zeros almost worth it at this point though I 244 00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:34,679 mean if it exists you know what I think we do need to get a bigger prompter oh 245 00:17:33,200 --> 00:17:38,520 yeah cuz you're not the only one that has trouble with it's way too small I 246 00:17:36,480 --> 00:17:43,080 well I can far away well lonus is magical he will like do a one take or a 247 00:17:41,039 --> 00:17:47,799 two take for an entire video and it's like oh I have to make two cuts and then 248 00:17:45,080 --> 00:17:52,640 it's done you just start plopping on the graphics all right so actually really 249 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:58,960 good feedback so far we've got 63% saying great mate eight out of eight um 250 00:17:55,240 --> 00:18:02,760 17% voting correctly for turnup uh 16% 251 00:17:58,960 --> 00:18:04,960 saying okay and only 5% saying bad if 5% 252 00:18:02,760 --> 00:18:09,480 of the internet thinks that you suck you're doing really well that's not bad 253 00:18:07,120 --> 00:18:14,799 well not the internet I mean this is a very biased poll I'm sure the more 254 00:18:12,480 --> 00:18:20,080 hardcore fans are the ones who watch live I I think I think that's fair but 255 00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:23,640 you know what I've also experienced is that sometimes the more hardcore fans 256 00:18:22,280 --> 00:18:28,320 have been the ones that have been more resistant to 257 00:18:25,320 --> 00:18:31,000 change it was a lot of the hardc that 258 00:18:28,320 --> 00:18:34,880 Obed to Luke hosting videos back when we initially did it I can hardly imagine I 259 00:18:33,080 --> 00:18:39,080 mean remember luk do you remember the first time you hosted a fast as possible 260 00:18:37,080 --> 00:18:43,760 awful they were like who is this guy why does he have a beard thing oh yeah like 261 00:18:41,000 --> 00:18:46,360 my hosting was awkward and also lots of yeah but we didn't even properly 262 00:18:45,000 --> 00:18:50,120 introduced me I wanted to put a lower third well they would have hated you no 263 00:18:48,000 --> 00:18:53,559 matter and L was like no you don't need to put your name on there or any 264 00:18:51,960 --> 00:19:00,799 information about who the heck you are it'll be fine and it was awkward it was 265 00:18:57,640 --> 00:19:02,400 awkward well okay they know me now yeah 266 00:19:00,799 --> 00:19:09,960 yeah yeah you know what's really funny too is Brandon is the only one who never 267 00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:13,400 got any Flack Luke got Flack you got 268 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:15,400 Flack Ed got Flack people just instantly 269 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:20,880 love Brandon and it's not just it's not just people watching our videos my kids 270 00:19:18,240 --> 00:19:25,640 like Brandon your cats like Brandon yeah like my son was really really shy 271 00:19:23,960 --> 00:19:30,039 especially at the beginning you never worked out of the garage right you 272 00:19:27,760 --> 00:19:38,039 joined us at the house so when we worked out of my house in the 273 00:19:34,200 --> 00:19:40,720 my son was young very sh did not did not 274 00:19:38,039 --> 00:19:45,320 like Luke didn't like pretty much anyone he's a big guy but would give Brandon a 275 00:19:42,760 --> 00:19:51,240 big smile that's so weird yeah it's bizarre he's just like a big teddy bear 276 00:19:48,600 --> 00:19:56,280 yeah he's not as big as he thinks he is sorry Brandon you're not that ripped 277 00:19:53,520 --> 00:19:56,280 you're not that ripped 278 00:19:56,600 --> 00:20:02,320 Brandon Brandon sucks quite on set yeah 279 00:19:59,840 --> 00:20:05,600 quiet on set quiet on set Brandon wa I I put that in the video where you say that 280 00:20:03,960 --> 00:20:08,960 that that'll that's coming up soon that's our that's like funny enough 281 00:20:07,159 --> 00:20:12,520 that's like our new favorite is we just rip on Brandon because he'll be like 282 00:20:10,440 --> 00:20:15,960 somewhere else in the studio and then when he goes to reply it's like don't 283 00:20:14,400 --> 00:20:18,840 quiet on set no we're doing a video Brandon yeah we're recording Brandon you 284 00:20:17,799 --> 00:20:24,679 can't say anything Brandon can't say anything back um so this is some good 285 00:20:21,919 --> 00:20:29,360 news for AMD uh Mr troll posted this originally on the lineus tech tips Forum 286 00:20:26,720 --> 00:20:33,919 amds oh you know what no let's not do this topic next let's do a different 287 00:20:31,039 --> 00:20:38,360 topic next because I had said that that last topic um it was a great segue into 288 00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:42,480 something was a great Segway never made segue yeah no no it's it's here it's 289 00:20:40,559 --> 00:20:47,480 here somewhere my Segways are better than Linus's uh I don't even need to do 290 00:20:44,360 --> 00:20:50,760 a poll my Segways are amazing speaking 291 00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:52,760 of whatever yeah something else here we 292 00:20:50,760 --> 00:20:59,360 that's not a segue so this was posted by Jaws on the Forum the our original 293 00:20:54,960 --> 00:21:01,280 article here is from deep.web all right 294 00:20:59,360 --> 00:21:07,799 and the headline here is pretty concerning turning your phone on is 295 00:21:04,520 --> 00:21:09,919 consenting to being tracked by whom so 296 00:21:07,799 --> 00:21:17,400 but but this is it and it's funny that we say this because you basically just 297 00:21:14,400 --> 00:21:19,400 said that you would be more accepting of 298 00:21:17,400 --> 00:21:23,600 that than someone tracking you when you're on your PC at home and you didn't 299 00:21:21,520 --> 00:21:27,799 know why accepting but you didn't even know why you said it because boil the 300 00:21:25,320 --> 00:21:33,200 Frog because boil the Frog but it's interesting that you might actually be 301 00:21:30,600 --> 00:21:36,159 more right than you would have even thought about and if You' thought about 302 00:21:34,720 --> 00:21:42,039 how right you were you probably wouldn't have said it because this is the 303 00:21:38,360 --> 00:21:44,559 argument being made um so Baltimore 304 00:21:42,039 --> 00:21:49,640 Police obtained an arrest warrant for Karen Andrews in 2014 arrests see it's 305 00:21:47,919 --> 00:21:55,120 happening in an attempt to find this person they used his cell phone yeah of 306 00:21:52,600 --> 00:21:59,240 course they did okay so they requested a pen register order from the judge 307 00:21:56,919 --> 00:22:04,440 expressing intent to locate Karen they used a hail storm to track the phone and 308 00:22:02,120 --> 00:22:08,919 never disclosed this wait hang on a hail storm yeah what do you mean a hail storm 309 00:22:06,320 --> 00:22:14,480 is that a device or an actual hail storm um okay so a hail storm is a machine 310 00:22:11,840 --> 00:22:17,400 that steals your phone's data so there's a variety of there's a variety of 311 00:22:16,159 --> 00:22:23,400 different ones oh is that like a stingray it it intercepts it like it 312 00:22:19,799 --> 00:22:25,000 acts like a telephone pole um yeah so it 313 00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:28,799 covertly intercepts mobile phone conversations in real time okay okay so 314 00:22:27,320 --> 00:22:33,400 they used a hail storm to track phone they never disclosed it um so basically 315 00:22:31,120 --> 00:22:37,520 it acts like a mobile Tower and attacks phones that connect to it it is 316 00:22:34,799 --> 00:22:41,799 indiscriminate and can easily end up scooping up innocent bystanders 317 00:22:39,400 --> 00:22:48,720 information so the Baltimore Sun reports that the police have used the technology 318 00:22:44,679 --> 00:22:51,919 4,300 times oh sure since 2007 I'm not 319 00:22:48,720 --> 00:22:53,640 surprised um a response to a discovery 320 00:22:51,919 --> 00:22:58,880 request asking if Police use a stingray was stalled until June 2015 and in June 321 00:22:56,000 --> 00:23:03,400 2015 a judge concluded the information was intentionally withheld from the 322 00:23:00,679 --> 00:23:07,000 defense by police violating legal disclosure 323 00:23:05,120 --> 00:23:12,840 obligations so they're up to some sneaky shite in 324 00:23:10,679 --> 00:23:18,000 the brief's first statement it states while cell phones are ubiquitous they 325 00:23:14,720 --> 00:23:20,360 all come with an off switch oh if a cell 326 00:23:18,000 --> 00:23:24,640 phone is turned on it is receiving signals from cell towers and sending 327 00:23:22,640 --> 00:23:29,600 signals back out to cell towers unless you put it in Airplane Mode right the 328 00:23:26,360 --> 00:23:31,840 cell site simulat yes 329 00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:36,799 the Cell Site Simulator used in this case took advantage of that fact in 330 00:23:33,880 --> 00:23:41,200 order to locate andrews's phone because Andrew and this is this is bolded in my 331 00:23:38,440 --> 00:23:46,919 notes because Andrews chose to keep his cell phone on he was voluntarily sharing 332 00:23:44,480 --> 00:23:51,480 the location of his cell phone with third parties it's like oh it's it's 333 00:23:49,760 --> 00:23:54,799 your fault you left your blinds open and we looked inside your house except that 334 00:23:53,360 --> 00:23:59,400 what they really have is a device that looks through the walls because no one 335 00:23:57,600 --> 00:24:03,840 else has this thing that can intercept cell phone signals with that said I mean 336 00:24:02,600 --> 00:24:10,480 and let's I'm going to play Devil's Advocate a little bit here it is the 337 00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:13,200 case that if you have the blinds open of 338 00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:18,679 your house yeah and someone a legal thing someone can see what they can see 339 00:24:16,080 --> 00:24:24,919 from public property not on your private property then you are not private would 340 00:24:22,000 --> 00:24:30,799 you agree that turning on your phone which it is true it is true you are 341 00:24:27,440 --> 00:24:33,840 inherently ageing to share information 342 00:24:30,799 --> 00:24:38,360 about your location with third parties 343 00:24:33,840 --> 00:24:39,320 would you argue that that air space is 344 00:24:38,360 --> 00:24:45,279 not private well are the signals encrypted 345 00:24:41,919 --> 00:24:47,440 or not no okay can you encrypt the 346 00:24:45,279 --> 00:24:52,000 signals not you won't have a way of encrypting 347 00:24:49,360 --> 00:24:56,559 everything I mean encryption has to be supported at both end points yeah and in 348 00:24:54,240 --> 00:25:01,960 flight and so it's it's not not not a thing at the I me I I I just just sounds 349 00:24:58,760 --> 00:25:03,640 ridiculous to me is all so and and 350 00:25:01,960 --> 00:25:07,279 remember it's it's not everything like you can enter your credit card 351 00:25:05,120 --> 00:25:11,320 information and that can be encrypted while it's being sent but we're talking 352 00:25:08,720 --> 00:25:15,559 about voice here yeah um I I think that's dumb I mean if I'm in my if I if 353 00:25:13,640 --> 00:25:19,720 I'm Alexander van Bell or whatever his name was not van Bell van Bell van Bell 354 00:25:18,600 --> 00:25:23,960 who by the way didn't invent the telephone yeah way to be an American 355 00:25:21,640 --> 00:25:27,799 about it whatever um like you're in your home making a phone call mhm and then 356 00:25:26,120 --> 00:25:32,520 you hang up the phone and the person answering in their home listening to you 357 00:25:30,360 --> 00:25:36,600 y and just because you have a fancy wiretapping device doesn't mean that you 358 00:25:35,320 --> 00:25:40,240 should be allowed to listen to my conversation I don't see the difference 359 00:25:38,480 --> 00:25:47,120 between picking up my phone and just leaving it on MH you know with the 360 00:25:43,120 --> 00:25:49,279 signal uh dial tone and well I mean if 361 00:25:47,120 --> 00:25:54,039 you pick up your phone and you just leave it sitting around and then someone 362 00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:57,399 hears something that you say but they're somewhere where they shouldn't have been 363 00:25:55,240 --> 00:26:02,320 anyway yeah but they're in a public space it's I I don't like any of this at 364 00:26:00,279 --> 00:26:06,279 all I just don't like it I don't want to have to like oh you have your phone 365 00:26:03,799 --> 00:26:10,600 anyway no it's like this is my phone so I will I will make the argument that 366 00:26:08,200 --> 00:26:16,279 even if the police didn't do anything illegal to uh to Andrews like even if 367 00:26:14,480 --> 00:26:21,799 they were in public doing public things um I would 368 00:26:20,600 --> 00:26:26,919 make the argument that they did something illegal to the cell phone 369 00:26:23,760 --> 00:26:29,559 carrier because they do actually pay for 370 00:26:26,919 --> 00:26:35,840 the exclusive right to use those bands now with that said we have a cell phone 371 00:26:33,399 --> 00:26:41,559 signal booster here in our office that's true that effectively acts as a little 372 00:26:39,279 --> 00:26:46,600 mini tower right here in our building and then translates everything in and 373 00:26:43,720 --> 00:26:50,600 out to the a nearby cell phone tower yeah but it's dumb it just it's 374 00:26:47,880 --> 00:26:54,399 basically a what if it wasn't well then it that that would be laws would have 375 00:26:52,520 --> 00:26:57,880 something to say about about that I would hope well the carrier wouldn't 376 00:26:56,159 --> 00:27:03,840 care so the carrier is the one who owns the spect mhm okay or well the carrier 377 00:27:01,520 --> 00:27:08,880 doesn't it's legal mhm it's legal for me to have that you think it would ever be 378 00:27:05,559 --> 00:27:11,760 illegal uh could somebody abuse this 379 00:27:08,880 --> 00:27:15,960 technology everyone in this complex could be talking on our booster could 380 00:27:14,279 --> 00:27:21,320 they yes they and then we could tap in and be perfectly legal in fact our cell 381 00:27:18,679 --> 00:27:25,600 phone booster had an issue with it last uh two weeks ago where our outer anten 382 00:27:24,000 --> 00:27:29,840 our outdoor antenna was too close to our indoor antenna and it was causing an 383 00:27:27,480 --> 00:27:34,159 interference Spike on someone else's mobile network so our carrier didn't 384 00:27:31,360 --> 00:27:38,039 even know oh yeah um but they showed up and they were like hey yo you actually 385 00:27:35,799 --> 00:27:41,919 need to move those and that was definitely interfering with the service 386 00:27:40,200 --> 00:27:46,240 of other people around us who were not even on the same carrier mhm cuz our 387 00:27:44,399 --> 00:27:50,159 cell phone booster is Carrier agnostic it actually works with every Canadian 388 00:27:47,880 --> 00:27:54,240 carrier so someone in the next building over and the next building over there 389 00:27:51,559 --> 00:28:00,360 because we got a Ballin cell phone booster uh with like Ballin antennas 390 00:27:57,039 --> 00:28:01,559 because we had really we had really bad 391 00:28:00,360 --> 00:28:05,799 yeah like we couldn't use our phones in the building um but that means that they 392 00:28:04,519 --> 00:28:10,200 can have the benefit of our cell phone booster and we could theoretically 393 00:28:07,880 --> 00:28:15,320 intercept and that would be legal I don't know okay but if the police the 394 00:28:12,880 --> 00:28:20,799 kind of thing that should be if the police do it then maybe if they go 395 00:28:19,159 --> 00:28:24,080 through the correct due process it is legal but I think the argument being 396 00:28:22,159 --> 00:28:26,360 made here is that they didn't they intentionally didn't disclose it but 397 00:28:25,240 --> 00:28:31,720 they're saying hey well whatever if you turn on your phone you should accept that third parties have your 398 00:28:34,919 --> 00:28:39,600 location what's the next topic yeah I'll 399 00:28:38,440 --> 00:28:43,600 try and find something that you'll like a little bit better okay uh so this was 400 00:28:41,559 --> 00:28:48,679 posted by Mr troll on the Forum the original article here is from wccf Tech 401 00:28:46,360 --> 00:28:54,919 AMD's Polaris graphics cards will make the minimum VR spec more affordable for 402 00:28:51,720 --> 00:28:58,080 everyone targeting price points below 403 00:28:54,919 --> 00:29:00,840 3.49 to deliver what would be a min 404 00:28:58,080 --> 00:29:05,360 minimum minimum like a minimum recommended uh gameplay experience in VR 405 00:29:03,640 --> 00:29:09,360 so this is something Luke's talked about a fair bit on the show and really VR is 406 00:29:07,279 --> 00:29:14,279 his wheelhouse not mine but I do want to talk about this a little bit to have a 407 00:29:12,200 --> 00:29:18,559 good experience in VR you not only have to run it a high resolution because it's 408 00:29:16,440 --> 00:29:26,679 the whole it's the whole retina concept all over again it's like why is why is 409 00:29:24,159 --> 00:29:33,320 1080p just fine and I can't see any of the pixels from like 10 ft away and you 410 00:29:29,960 --> 00:29:35,720 know why do I need uh you know okay 411 00:29:33,320 --> 00:29:39,480 that's a bad example um cuz it's closer to your face whatever the point is yeah 412 00:29:37,640 --> 00:29:42,880 the closer it is the more pixels you need so you can't see so if it's right 413 00:29:41,000 --> 00:29:49,480 here you need a ton of pixels they need to be really tiny also the uh in 414 00:29:47,039 --> 00:29:54,799 resolution of your eyes increases as it gets closer to the center right so you 415 00:29:52,200 --> 00:29:58,480 need to maybe what what do they have like eye tracking to put extra pixels 416 00:29:56,919 --> 00:30:02,000 where your eyes are looking do they do that I think they do Luke was talking 417 00:30:00,919 --> 00:30:10,600 about this I don't remember what are you looking at uh and balls apparently 418 00:30:06,240 --> 00:30:13,159 what that's uh Nick Nick Van burkel okay 419 00:30:10,600 --> 00:30:16,640 are we yeah get get out we should never have put that window in I know right all 420 00:30:14,799 --> 00:30:20,679 right Nick it was like you feel that book and that's a full page spread full 421 00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:24,640 page page spread you haven't seen that before yeah that get out of here right 422 00:30:22,399 --> 00:30:29,840 get out of here um okay so another factor is that we always talk about 423 00:30:27,360 --> 00:30:34,480 average f PS okay like that's what everyone loves to talk about I got 80 424 00:30:31,880 --> 00:30:42,919 FPS average in Crisis 3 or whatever game it is MHM average FPS is almost 425 00:30:38,480 --> 00:30:45,519 meaningless in VR because on a screen 426 00:30:42,919 --> 00:30:50,080 when you get that chug or that stutter it's annoying it's not so jarring yeah 427 00:30:47,640 --> 00:30:53,840 on a head-mounted display as you're moving around like this that's super 428 00:30:52,039 --> 00:30:58,159 weird that jutter will make you feel motion sick oh for sure so what's going 429 00:30:55,840 --> 00:31:02,600 to become more important is the minimum um frame rate yeah so you're going to 430 00:31:00,720 --> 00:31:06,279 have to you're going to have to reach a high frame rate which is also important 431 00:31:04,399 --> 00:31:09,559 for smooth motion again so you don't get motion sickness you're going to have to 432 00:31:08,120 --> 00:31:14,600 maintain that frame rate all the time and it's going to have to be at a high resolution so AMD is basically coming 433 00:31:13,159 --> 00:31:19,200 out and saying their new Polaris architecture gpus will be faster and 434 00:31:17,200 --> 00:31:24,799 more affordable thanks to their upgraded architecture making VR uh easily more 435 00:31:22,320 --> 00:31:29,639 easily attainable for everyone which pretty much goes without saying and is 436 00:31:26,720 --> 00:31:34,480 about like saying that NVIDIA's new graphics cards will be faster and more 437 00:31:32,200 --> 00:31:40,080 affordable for equivalent performance and Intel's new CPUs will be faster and 438 00:31:37,639 --> 00:31:46,120 more affordable except the same thing slightly faster slightly smaller except 439 00:31:42,720 --> 00:31:48,919 welcome to CES Asos sometimes bigger if 440 00:31:46,120 --> 00:31:52,440 we're talking TVs faster and bigger not faster and smaller smart guy depends on 441 00:31:50,600 --> 00:31:55,000 what it is yeah sometimes bigger is better sometimes smaller is better 442 00:31:53,840 --> 00:31:59,960 sometimes we can't decide I mean remember when phones wanted to be smaller and then bigger and then along 443 00:31:58,399 --> 00:32:05,760 and then bigger again and then the thing that's not the iPad came along the NFL 444 00:32:03,240 --> 00:32:12,000 whatever not not oh the surface yeah the surface um okay unless your Intel and 445 00:32:10,279 --> 00:32:17,559 this was posted on the Forum by a person I just said I 446 00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:25,399 think Intel chips will have to sacrifice 447 00:32:17,559 --> 00:32:27,960 speed gains for Energy savings m d d 448 00:32:25,399 --> 00:32:31,639 d but I don't I don't get it how's that different from just going back a 449 00:32:29,399 --> 00:32:36,559 generation right uh well back a generation we didn't have as good power 450 00:32:34,480 --> 00:32:40,639 efficiency or power consumption in general you mean from the power supply 451 00:32:38,840 --> 00:32:44,480 or in the chip itself the chip itself how much power it requires from the 452 00:32:42,360 --> 00:32:50,519 power supply so uh William Holt executive VP and GM 453 00:32:48,159 --> 00:32:56,399 of Technology and Manufacturing Group which is basically like big deal at 454 00:32:53,840 --> 00:33:01,399 Intel I mean what do they do other than Technology and Manufacturing 455 00:32:58,399 --> 00:33:04,279 okay says that new techologies in chip 456 00:33:01,399 --> 00:33:11,039 manufacturing will favor better energy consumption over faster execution times 457 00:33:07,200 --> 00:33:13,600 and is calling it an end to Moore's Law 458 00:33:11,039 --> 00:33:17,279 so um he discussed some new technologies at the international solid state 459 00:33:14,880 --> 00:33:21,840 circuits conference in San Fran such as tunneling transistors and spintronics 460 00:33:19,919 --> 00:33:27,760 and says look we're going to see major Transitions and the best pure technology 461 00:33:25,440 --> 00:33:33,080 improvements we can make will bring improvements in power consumption but 462 00:33:29,960 --> 00:33:34,399 will reduce speed so spintronics is 463 00:33:33,080 --> 00:33:39,159 expected to begin to appear in commercial Technologies such as Graphics 464 00:33:36,200 --> 00:33:43,559 chips within 18 months but Intel has not yet committed to tunneling transistors 465 00:33:41,760 --> 00:33:48,799 or spintronics or really much of anything they're just saying hey look 466 00:33:45,639 --> 00:33:51,320 guys be ready for your smartphone or 467 00:33:48,799 --> 00:33:56,919 your tablet or your you know thin and light gaming PC to be more efficient uh 468 00:33:55,320 --> 00:34:02,840 and consume less power and have longer battery life but don't expect it to 469 00:33:59,519 --> 00:34:04,480 actually be faster very very interesting 470 00:34:02,840 --> 00:34:09,839 so we've been going through a long period of time now where we've been 471 00:34:06,919 --> 00:34:15,960 getting I mean it used to be oh man it used to be so awesome like within a 472 00:34:13,119 --> 00:34:20,520 single architecture we would get multiple speed bumps that would give us 473 00:34:18,200 --> 00:34:23,960 like 10 to 20% performance improvements it was freaking sick and when we got a 474 00:34:22,520 --> 00:34:29,480 generational Improvement when we got a new architecture it was like it was like 475 00:34:26,679 --> 00:34:34,879 bananas it was it it was the bomb like the the article on the release of the 476 00:34:31,560 --> 00:34:37,760 Core 2 Duo on Anon Tech probably has 477 00:34:34,879 --> 00:34:43,159 like millions and millions of views whereas like I mean we didn't even do a 478 00:34:40,560 --> 00:34:47,560 review of one CPU release from Intel until like 3 weeks later and literally 479 00:34:45,320 --> 00:34:51,679 four people complained like it's gotten to the point where we get these tiny 480 00:34:49,960 --> 00:34:55,879 performance improvements but what we do get is better power consumption which on 481 00:34:53,280 --> 00:35:00,280 the desktop most people and some people do but most 482 00:34:58,400 --> 00:35:04,520 people are less concerned about and what they would really prefer to have is more 483 00:35:01,839 --> 00:35:08,760 performance and it looks like that trend is going to not only continue where we 484 00:35:07,240 --> 00:35:14,040 don't really get huge performance games anymore but it could actually get worse 485 00:35:11,720 --> 00:35:18,520 where it's like the new chip that comes out is going to save me money on the 486 00:35:16,359 --> 00:35:22,599 power bill here in the building but is not going to make your video render any 487 00:35:20,000 --> 00:35:27,280 faster how much power does a CPU really use um like is it worth that minuscule 488 00:35:26,040 --> 00:35:30,760 amount I mean compared to putting the lights on and heaters and which is a 489 00:35:29,920 --> 00:35:36,880 great question at home at home I would say 490 00:35:34,359 --> 00:35:41,680 especially here in BC where our power comes from falling water and we have 491 00:35:38,680 --> 00:35:46,640 plenty of that which is basically free 492 00:35:41,680 --> 00:35:49,079 um no it's no big deal however in places 493 00:35:46,640 --> 00:35:55,680 where the power is coming from coal burning coal or um you know other fossil 494 00:35:52,280 --> 00:35:58,119 fuels um then yes if you can change if 495 00:35:55,680 --> 00:36:04,920 you can like let's say let's say as CPU consumes only 65 Watts okay uh if you 496 00:36:01,480 --> 00:36:07,720 can cut that down by 10 or 20 or or or 497 00:36:04,920 --> 00:36:12,760 25% then we're talking yeah that for the same or slightly less performance then 498 00:36:09,880 --> 00:36:19,880 we're talking maybe 12 to you know 15 watts per CPU in your home does that 499 00:36:15,640 --> 00:36:22,520 matter no no however for a massive data 500 00:36:19,880 --> 00:36:27,839 center many homes let's say every home in an entire country had a computer that 501 00:36:25,359 --> 00:36:31,280 was 15% more efficient you're going to save a lot more energy with just 502 00:36:29,280 --> 00:36:34,319 different lights and more efficient Heating and insulation which isn't to 503 00:36:33,200 --> 00:36:38,720 say that you can't do all of those things it's just to say that it is a 504 00:36:36,440 --> 00:36:41,880 factor and if you're running a data center which you just brought up that's 505 00:36:40,319 --> 00:36:45,880 the huge savings right there where you're running literally 100,000 CPUs 506 00:36:44,040 --> 00:36:51,280 under Under One Roof but I'm thinking like cost spense to energy saves like 507 00:36:48,880 --> 00:36:55,160 buying yourself a brand spanking new CPU from Intel to save something on your 508 00:36:53,200 --> 00:37:00,079 power bill is never going to be worth it for most people it's going to be a lot 509 00:36:56,800 --> 00:37:03,599 more worth it to get LED lights more 510 00:37:00,079 --> 00:37:05,160 insulation um stuff like that that is a 511 00:37:03,599 --> 00:37:09,640 very interesting that is a very interesting potential topic for a video 512 00:37:07,319 --> 00:37:15,319 right there oh where we cuz I actually did this a long time ago um back when 80 513 00:37:12,960 --> 00:37:20,800 plus gold efficiency rated power supplies first started popping up and I 514 00:37:17,760 --> 00:37:23,920 kind of went oh okay so let's look at 515 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:27,000 this two different ways yeah how long do 516 00:37:23,920 --> 00:37:28,040 you have to run this computer to to 517 00:37:27,000 --> 00:37:31,720 justify buying a new power supply outright right 518 00:37:30,240 --> 00:37:36,280 and how long do you have to run this computer to justify the more expensive 519 00:37:34,200 --> 00:37:41,760 power supply versus buying a cheaper one if you were going to have to buy a power 520 00:37:37,880 --> 00:37:44,119 supply anyway and in BC it was like 521 00:37:41,760 --> 00:37:47,400 until the end of time right like the end of you know that that place in Chrono 522 00:37:45,800 --> 00:37:51,040 Trigger where the old man is standing on the little island like that's how long 523 00:37:48,839 --> 00:37:55,079 you'd have to wait um but in places like California where power is much more 524 00:37:53,040 --> 00:37:58,040 expensive because I think they're buying a lot of it from us um or at least they 525 00:37:57,040 --> 00:38:03,079 used to be um actually it didn't take that long it 526 00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:08,800 took like 3 or four years mhm so I would be interested to know how many 527 00:38:05,560 --> 00:38:12,560 generations back you have to go for a 528 00:38:08,800 --> 00:38:14,520 full system upgrade to pay for itself in 529 00:38:12,560 --> 00:38:19,560 a reasonable span of time like within the lifespan of the system like years 530 00:38:16,720 --> 00:38:24,319 prob like ever like the further back you go the more reasonable it is to upgrade 531 00:38:22,119 --> 00:38:28,960 yes right but I mean the stuff we saw at free geek was nuts like those power 532 00:38:26,160 --> 00:38:33,960 supplies those two Mass it was amazing 350 power suppes were two 533 00:38:32,520 --> 00:38:38,319 of them and it's like oh we have this tiny one that do the same thing for we 534 00:38:35,520 --> 00:38:42,760 cheaper now and that's amazing um but where's The Sweet Spot yeah but but yeah 535 00:38:40,440 --> 00:38:46,880 and like like you could also factor in improving the installation in your home 536 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:50,760 and changing the Windows to like triple paint or whatever um although really 537 00:38:49,400 --> 00:38:57,960 what you you should have is like smaller Windows if you want to save on energy 538 00:38:53,720 --> 00:38:59,800 bills um factor that all in as well I 539 00:38:57,960 --> 00:39:04,680 don't know if if if it would be so easy to uh test that yeah we wouldn't be able 540 00:39:02,560 --> 00:39:10,000 to we we wouldn't be able to look at all of those things I mean like I mean seal 541 00:39:07,359 --> 00:39:15,839 up the cracks in your doors you know y stop the heat from escaping you know 542 00:39:12,480 --> 00:39:17,560 just just go go nutso on it yeah very 543 00:39:15,839 --> 00:39:21,000 interesting people are saying this is basic physics to be honest the same 544 00:39:19,480 --> 00:39:25,000 amount of power will be used to boil water something something I'm sure that 545 00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:27,400 is in response to someone else in twitch chat now that I read a little bit more 546 00:39:26,280 --> 00:39:34,680 of it I don't think that really has anything to do with what we're talking about what I found interesting um when I 547 00:39:31,119 --> 00:39:37,400 was learning about uh Bitcoin mining and 548 00:39:34,680 --> 00:39:41,520 like C cryptocoin Mining and whatever is that the energy you use to power the 549 00:39:38,960 --> 00:39:45,200 gpus being released as heat is like the same as just having an electric heater 550 00:39:43,560 --> 00:39:49,400 right because it's thermodynamics so either you can use that uh energy to 551 00:39:48,040 --> 00:39:53,359 heat up your room or you can use it to heat up your room and get Bitcoins which 552 00:39:51,680 --> 00:39:58,160 is kind of cool although of course the equipment is very expensive and also 553 00:39:55,480 --> 00:40:01,680 it's not worth it anymore so did you get a Bitcoin back in the day I 554 00:40:00,040 --> 00:40:06,200 didn't get any Bitcoins you never you never you never mind one not Bitcoin no 555 00:40:03,960 --> 00:40:12,839 not one not any yeah rock on all right our next 556 00:40:10,280 --> 00:40:18,040 topic here is posted by Top Dollar on the Forum and the original article here 557 00:40:14,599 --> 00:40:20,319 is from Computer World the Navy calls on 558 00:40:18,040 --> 00:40:27,720 researchers to create firefighting humanoid robots that's 559 00:40:23,880 --> 00:40:29,319 awesome that would be freaking awesome 560 00:40:27,720 --> 00:40:33,800 something straight at of SciFi I mean this is one of those things where I 561 00:40:30,839 --> 00:40:38,839 don't see this within a within a reasonable amount of time taking over 562 00:40:36,640 --> 00:40:42,079 the role of the fire department and the people who work at the fire department I 563 00:40:40,319 --> 00:40:47,440 don't see this as a threat to the firefighters jobs for heaven sakes no I 564 00:40:44,440 --> 00:40:49,760 see this as a significant Improvement in 565 00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:52,920 the safety oh yeah of firefighters in the in the much more immediate future 566 00:40:51,359 --> 00:40:57,800 building's on fire it is in danger of collapse at any moment yeah I mean being 567 00:40:55,000 --> 00:41:01,520 able to being able to Pilot just a firefighter drone walking around 568 00:41:00,119 --> 00:41:05,640 in there would be awesome and I mean if they can build robotic arms that are 569 00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:10,040 delicate enough for a surgeon to perform a surgery remotely then I don't think 570 00:41:08,359 --> 00:41:14,119 it's unreasonable to expect to be able to build a firefighting robot that can 571 00:41:12,480 --> 00:41:17,359 run in and grab someone and pull them out of a building now there are going to 572 00:41:16,000 --> 00:41:21,960 be some challenges of course you're going to have to make it lightweight enough that it doesn't cause the 573 00:41:20,280 --> 00:41:27,720 freaking building to collapse just by setting foot in it um now now ridddle me 574 00:41:25,000 --> 00:41:31,119 this why humanoid because I think I have the answer but I want to know if they 575 00:41:29,200 --> 00:41:35,680 say it in the article why they want it to be humanoid the context of this is 576 00:41:33,560 --> 00:41:41,160 need to be or does it the context of this is the Navy so they want these to 577 00:41:38,359 --> 00:41:44,280 fight onboard fires so I would imagine getting around on a ship is going to 578 00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:47,359 require some pretty humanoid like characteristics because it's built for 579 00:41:45,760 --> 00:41:50,760 humans already that's right that's why you build a robot humanoid and I mean 580 00:41:49,000 --> 00:41:55,839 ships are expected to be in service for decades it's not like you know you 581 00:41:53,240 --> 00:41:59,520 develop this technology today and in the future maybe you don't need a human one 582 00:41:57,560 --> 00:42:03,440 maybe there's a rail that's designed throughout the ship that any that a 583 00:42:01,000 --> 00:42:06,480 firefighting unit can fly around on or whatever but then you got to install 584 00:42:04,599 --> 00:42:10,079 that everywhere and if it doesn't exist then yeah if you have a humanoid robot 585 00:42:08,319 --> 00:42:14,119 it will go and do everything that and you can retrofit can do yeah you can 586 00:42:11,760 --> 00:42:18,400 retrofit stuff with that so uh the US military's Office of Naval Research is 587 00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:22,440 giving out a grant of $600,000 to a Worchester Polytechnic Institute 588 00:42:20,160 --> 00:42:27,240 Professor to develop motion planning algorithms for firefighting humanoid 589 00:42:24,240 --> 00:42:29,319 robots so the robot must be agile and 590 00:42:27,240 --> 00:42:33,760 and able to move in tight spaces on a ship or a submarine 591 00:42:31,280 --> 00:42:38,839 yeah I I love this stuff very interesting very cool very very 592 00:42:36,800 --> 00:42:44,160 cool yeah this is the kind of thing where like you hear about it and then 593 00:42:40,920 --> 00:42:45,559 you'd hear nothing for like 10 20 years 594 00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:50,359 and then later they have a breakthrough it's like oh yeah I remember that hey 595 00:42:48,880 --> 00:42:54,079 that I mean stuff like that has already happened on WAN Show Luke and I have 596 00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:58,880 been doing wow for like two years now I think and we like we've had well no it's 597 00:42:56,839 --> 00:43:02,599 a very small amount of time but we've already had stuff where we like talked 598 00:43:00,800 --> 00:43:07,000 about it and then it turned into a real thing yeah which is which is which is 599 00:43:04,480 --> 00:43:12,760 pretty cool pretty cool speaking of things that are pretty cool I wish um I 600 00:43:11,359 --> 00:43:15,960 don't remember who originally posted this on the Forum unfortunately but it 601 00:43:14,440 --> 00:43:20,400 was definitely there and this actually happened last week I think not this week 602 00:43:17,880 --> 00:43:26,760 February 3rd yeah uh Microsoft acquires swift key is that bad that sucks why 603 00:43:24,119 --> 00:43:29,520 does that suck because I love swift key what are they going to do to it to ruin 604 00:43:28,040 --> 00:43:33,880 it nothing well that's exactly it they're 605 00:43:31,720 --> 00:43:37,760 not going to upgrade it so Microsoft has entered a definitive agreement to 606 00:43:35,640 --> 00:43:42,119 acquire swift key whose highly rated highly engaging Swift Key software 607 00:43:40,040 --> 00:43:47,599 keyboard and SDK Powers more than 300 million Android and iOS devices let's 608 00:43:45,640 --> 00:43:54,760 just have every company merge into one giant company that'll be great L the buy 609 00:43:49,559 --> 00:43:57,359 and large buy and large super store so 610 00:43:54,760 --> 00:44:01,280 um the swift key blah blah blah Swift Keys Tech aligns with our vision for 611 00:43:59,240 --> 00:44:05,119 more personal Computing experiences that anticipate our needs versus responding 612 00:44:03,040 --> 00:44:09,400 to our Command says Harry sham executive VP of tech and research they're looking 613 00:44:07,440 --> 00:44:14,200 to also integrate swift key Tech into wordflow technology for Windows and 614 00:44:12,200 --> 00:44:19,119 they're moving some of swift key staff to blah blah blah positions here and 615 00:44:16,720 --> 00:44:23,480 there which basically means swift key which was awesome and so many people are 616 00:44:21,760 --> 00:44:27,119 like lus why do you like swift key so much the stock keyboard has flow typing 617 00:44:25,640 --> 00:44:32,480 I don't care about flow typing flow typing is crap swift key predictive text 618 00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:38,359 is excellent and this is a a mini cupcake which is also excellent thank 619 00:44:34,880 --> 00:44:41,920 you uh thank you very very much both of 620 00:44:38,359 --> 00:44:43,880 you what's the story here this 621 00:44:41,920 --> 00:44:47,839 wonderful testing out mini cupcakes for a wedding testing out oh then I have to 622 00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:53,240 take one yeah go for it ah so we're guinea pigs now thanks Steph appreciate 623 00:44:51,119 --> 00:44:58,079 that sorry you don't mind if I say your name right okay I didn't know if it I 624 00:44:55,760 --> 00:45:02,920 didn't know if it was private or anything yeah so so Colton's fiance is 625 00:45:01,160 --> 00:45:06,599 apparently poisoning his boss and colleague now that's fine as long as 626 00:45:04,880 --> 00:45:11,720 it's delicious I thought we I thought we were friends yeah we're tight it's 627 00:45:09,680 --> 00:45:16,599 supposed to be a gift of love ah gift of love like like we want to be together 628 00:45:14,400 --> 00:45:22,000 forever I want to preserve you this way for all time it's it's chalk full of uh 629 00:45:20,400 --> 00:45:27,520 I can never think of words when I need them um what's the preservative that 630 00:45:24,200 --> 00:45:29,760 they use for dead bodies oh wow from 631 00:45:27,520 --> 00:45:32,880 alhy Jo fulla from alide don't ask how I know 632 00:45:30,520 --> 00:45:36,119 that he preserved forever right I don't actually think that it is from alahh 633 00:45:34,160 --> 00:45:40,599 when they embal people I think embalming fluid is a different thing felhide is 634 00:45:39,119 --> 00:45:44,280 for dead bodies technically though if you want to preserve them like in a jar 635 00:45:42,240 --> 00:45:50,040 well that's very different though all right you win okay so I'm not an icing 636 00:45:47,079 --> 00:45:55,040 guy yeah me you I I really don't like icing I always when I have cake the 637 00:45:53,079 --> 00:46:00,680 icing gets slopped off to one side and I eat the cake part but what I will say 638 00:45:57,920 --> 00:46:05,680 is that the peanut butter cupcake is excellent yeah I am I am down for the 639 00:46:03,800 --> 00:46:09,319 peanut butter cupcake but if you were making it for me personally which I 640 00:46:07,240 --> 00:46:14,119 don't expect it's like there'll be everyone else's and then there's Linus's 641 00:46:11,440 --> 00:46:17,880 one cupcake for just lonus it's like one of frosting then it would it would be 642 00:46:15,839 --> 00:46:21,640 like it would almost have to have more like like a 643 00:46:19,160 --> 00:46:27,079 chocolate or something like that cuz that's part of the peanut butter cup 644 00:46:23,240 --> 00:46:29,400 experience is yeah a little 645 00:46:27,079 --> 00:46:34,319 much but you should talk to Ivonne because she's an icing person she's into 646 00:46:31,880 --> 00:46:39,079 icing whereas like for me if it's not like a super light cream cheese icing 647 00:46:36,079 --> 00:46:43,079 then you might as well just leave yeah 648 00:46:39,079 --> 00:46:44,640 tuxedo what's a tuxedo huh oh this it 649 00:46:43,079 --> 00:46:50,240 it's it's good it's fine tastes like a cupcake you know I mean you know it's 650 00:46:47,680 --> 00:46:54,000 it's great I try to give you know specific feedback I mean I mean it's I I 651 00:46:52,640 --> 00:46:59,200 don't know what it's not yeah I mean it's fantastic 652 00:46:57,160 --> 00:47:04,520 yeah yeah that is wow I've never actually had a peanut butter 653 00:47:01,559 --> 00:47:10,720 cupcake I'm down for that so sorry I'm super 654 00:47:08,400 --> 00:47:14,280 bummed swift key about swift key especially 655 00:47:11,880 --> 00:47:19,599 because swift key on Android is already pretty much perfect 656 00:47:17,400 --> 00:47:27,480 um they fixed most of my minor complaints swift key Cloud means that 657 00:47:21,800 --> 00:47:29,520 when I type in like GeForce GTX 980t I 658 00:47:27,480 --> 00:47:35,880 the t is Big the I is small like it's amazing it gets everything right um but 659 00:47:32,359 --> 00:47:38,079 on iOS it sucks and I was really hoping 660 00:47:35,880 --> 00:47:42,520 that over time twift key would continue to fix it and I just don't really have 661 00:47:40,839 --> 00:47:45,680 much hope for that anymore how hard is this though I mean it's a keyboard right 662 00:47:44,440 --> 00:47:51,880 it it predicts what you're going to write do you use it yes I use 663 00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:55,599 something can I see your phone it's not installed on this one I haven't switched 664 00:47:53,359 --> 00:48:00,200 yet it's on the other phone okay well it's pretty it's it's it's it's more 665 00:47:58,119 --> 00:48:04,160 complic if it wasn't complicated Microsoft wouldn't have bought them for 666 00:48:01,960 --> 00:48:10,839 however many millions of dollars I don't think we know um but yeah it's it's it's 667 00:48:07,640 --> 00:48:14,280 predictive technology it's really cool 668 00:48:10,839 --> 00:48:15,480 um yeah I'm oh I'm just I'm just sad I 669 00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:19,720 don't really have anything else to say about that other than that I'm sad mhm I 670 00:48:17,880 --> 00:48:27,000 use something tan 2016 awesome um speaking of using 671 00:48:24,480 --> 00:48:32,119 something if you're thinking gee I could use a VPN 672 00:48:29,359 --> 00:48:37,160 on my computer or my phone you might want to head over to TunnelBear tunnel 673 00:48:34,000 --> 00:48:40,200 bear is the easy to use VPN for mobile 674 00:48:37,160 --> 00:48:42,200 and desktop it lets you tunnel through 675 00:48:40,200 --> 00:48:45,319 20 different countries allowing you to browse the internet and use online 676 00:48:43,480 --> 00:48:49,720 services as though you are in the aforementioned countries without getting 677 00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:53,520 on a plane and actually going there it's easy to use so you don't have to be a 678 00:48:51,119 --> 00:48:57,280 tech person and deal with opening ports and blippity bopity all that stuff you 679 00:48:55,079 --> 00:49:02,280 just hit the switch and boom AES 256bit encryption and your public IP 680 00:49:00,359 --> 00:49:07,160 is Switched done deal and if you have any trouble their friendly support Bears 681 00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:10,440 will help you out no problems at all and the best thing is that you can

00:49:18,040 --> 00:49:25,920 sister-in-law was looking at flights and she wanted a way to VPN herself to get 685 00:49:24,200 --> 00:49:30,319 cheaper on flights and I and she was like ter VPN I'm like well I don't have 686 00:49:28,720 --> 00:49:35,520 that one anymore but you can use tunnel bear cuz it's free at first and just 687 00:49:33,480 --> 00:49:41,000 surf from any any country and

--> 00:50:43,640 to skip to that point in the video Even and also if you already know somewhat 703 00:50:41,960 --> 00:50:47,200 about a topic you can just read through the transcripts to see oh yeah I already 704 00:50:45,599 --> 00:50:52,280 know this go to the next one oh I don't know that click on it it's fantastic and 705 00:50:50,079 --> 00:50:55,799 what I really like about them and I was always recommending linda.com to people 706 00:50:54,200 --> 00:51:00,240 before I worked here and before they were sponsors of our 707 00:50:57,400 --> 00:51:05,280 is that they um they give you like a fantastic base of knowledge uh that that 708 00:51:03,079 --> 00:51:08,480 that you can build upon right like they they don't skip anything so you don't 709 00:51:06,799 --> 00:51:13,000 have gaps in your knowledge that you otherwise will if you try to piece stuff 710 00:51:10,839 --> 00:51:17,839 together which is something that I've done a lot and then I'll be like 711 00:51:16,079 --> 00:51:21,440 suddenly realizing oh I didn't know about this thing and if I had known 712 00:51:19,799 --> 00:51:26,400 about this thing I would have saved so much time you know in whatever program 713 00:51:23,799 --> 00:51:29,920 it was so I mean it selftaught is good but but there is some value to having a 714 00:51:28,440 --> 00:51:35,599 structured course in front of you to make sure that you don't miss any fundamental the time that you'll save it 715 00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:37,760 depends on the topic obviously is is so 716 00:51:35,599 --> 00:51:41,720 well worth it yeah like there's a

Squarespace makes building a site easy 723 00:52:05,359 --> 00:52:11,559 for normal people not just web developers to interrupt your pitch again 724 00:52:09,920 --> 00:52:17,119 have you ever tried to build a website yourself from scratch um I had like a 725 00:52:14,960 --> 00:52:21,960 geoc c site that was awful that doesn't count like from scratch getting your own 726 00:52:19,839 --> 00:52:31,040 server for doing the HTML CSS I I I worked with Luke through 727 00:52:28,319 --> 00:52:37,079 the processes of even even stuff as simple as when we had the server at like 728 00:52:34,599 --> 00:52:41,400 NC and we needed port forwarding done and blah blah blah blah blah all that 729 00:52:39,440 --> 00:52:47,000 stuff I mean when when there would be like something like a Dos attack or 730 00:52:43,040 --> 00:52:49,119 whatever else like it was awful it is so 731 00:52:47,000 --> 00:52:53,200 it is so hard even to do the simplest thing is pretty awful like and and it's 732 00:52:51,559 --> 00:53:00,079 only gotten more complex you used to be able to get away with an HTML web page 733 00:52:56,559 --> 00:53:02,200 nope not anymore um even like you'll get 734 00:53:00,079 --> 00:53:06,319 hacked even like the stuff just showing up on my website it's got like like like 735 00:53:04,680 --> 00:53:11,720 little like people oh you're like teran's animations and songs website oh 736 00:53:08,680 --> 00:53:14,880 wow like uh cuz I used WordPress for it 737 00:53:11,720 --> 00:53:16,680 it's down now I got to renew but um like 738 00:53:14,880 -->

00:54:10,079 --> 00:54:16,920 thread on the Forum are just like screen grabs of Luke build it beautiful yeah 753 00:54:16,079 --> 00:54:22,040 that's funny um this is cool so this was posted 754 00:54:20,200 --> 00:54:27,280 by doc Swag On The Forum original article here is from PC World and here's 755 00:54:24,559 --> 00:54:31,680 what I want to understand is why on Earth hasn't this been a thing forever 756 00:54:29,559 --> 00:54:35,839 when you buy a license of a game why can't you just play it on any device you 757 00:54:33,359 --> 00:54:40,640 want like I feel much the same way about DVDs and Blu-ray discs that I buy if I 758 00:54:38,720 --> 00:54:45,000 feel like viewing these on my phone which by the way doesn't have a DVD 759 00:54:42,520 --> 00:54:49,640 drive the last time I checked no it I would hope then I don't care about using 760 00:54:47,160 --> 00:54:53,079 your stupid service of which there are however stupid many of them and are 761 00:54:51,359 --> 00:54:57,200 licensed for however many stupid devices cuz quite frankly I switch phones more 762 00:54:55,599 --> 00:55:02,760 frequently than most people and that is extraordinarily inconvenient for me with 763 00:54:59,559 --> 00:55:04,640 service like DRM type services like that 764 00:55:02,760 --> 00:55:08,400 um Google play music by the way is awesome if you run out of devices and 765 00:55:06,559 --> 00:55:13,480 you run out of times you can run out of devices you just call them up they fixed 766 00:55:10,760 --> 00:55:20,440 it in like 45 seconds and offered me a Google Play credit for my trouble I was 767 00:55:15,040 --> 00:55:21,960 like that's incredible um anyway so I 768 00:55:20,440 --> 00:55:25,640 I've never really understood why when you buy a license to a game you don't 769 00:55:23,640 --> 00:55:29,400 just own the license to a game CU it's not like it really 770 00:55:27,119 --> 00:55:35,079 money I do know why but anyway if they can get you to buy a a movie on your 771 00:55:31,520 --> 00:55:39,079 phone and your computer and a DVD why 772 00:55:35,079 --> 00:55:41,559 wouldn't they and same for games so 773 00:55:39,079 --> 00:55:45,599 Gamers who pre-order the Xbox One's Quantum break which by the way I'm not 774 00:55:43,079 --> 00:55:53,240 recommending to do uh will receive a free digital copy for Windows 10 PC mhm 775 00:55:49,880 --> 00:55:55,960 very cool now I don't personally agree 776 00:55:53,240 --> 00:56:01,720 that that's a free digital copy I think it is is a paid for digital copy because 777 00:55:59,280 --> 00:56:05,240 you paid for it yeah but maybe more people will start doing this it'll 778 00:56:03,440 --> 00:56:10,079 become the norm the game will manage save games crossplatform which is sick 779 00:56:09,240 --> 00:56:15,799 that's awesome and that's extra functionality 780 00:56:13,400 --> 00:56:22,119 right there and Microsoft's Chief plans to make the crossby a platform feature 781 00:56:18,880 --> 00:56:24,200 of the Xbox one which in my mind should 782 00:56:22,119 --> 00:56:27,480 have been what they did out of the gate to differentiate the Xbox and I know 783 00:56:26,319 --> 00:56:36,880 licensing agreements with the game developers are complicated and all this stuff and I get that but I don't I I I I 784 00:56:35,280 --> 00:56:42,640 don't understand why this wasn't more obvious what a cool and awesome and 785 00:56:38,760 --> 00:56:45,240 consumer friendly thing to do MH um so 786 00:56:42,640 --> 00:56:51,079 yeah it's a baby step it's definitely baby step we're talking one game but you 787 00:56:49,160 --> 00:56:57,319 know crossplatform play crossplatform save games crossplatform in-game 788 00:56:53,599 --> 00:56:59,520 settings the ability to actually choose 789 00:56:57,319 --> 00:57:06,319 how I want to experience something very very cool very cool love it I mean this 790 00:57:02,960 --> 00:57:08,680 is a way to use the cloud in a way that 791 00:57:06,319 --> 00:57:13,160 is not obnoxious you know and you look at something like GeForce now okay 792 00:57:10,559 --> 00:57:16,200 NVIDIA's cloud gaming service where you are gaming off the cloud and you have to 793 00:57:14,640 --> 00:57:20,319 have like a ball and internet connection and it's like well you know what it's 794 00:57:18,119 --> 00:57:23,480 actually easier for me to just pack my Xbox with me to go to a friend's house 795 00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:28,280 there's a reason the cloud to butt extension exists because usually we hear 796 00:57:26,280 --> 00:57:32,480 about the cloud in some stupid way whereas this if it's just like oh I go 797 00:57:29,960 --> 00:57:36,319 over to my buddies and we can use my cloud save of you know I'm I'm obviously 798 00:57:34,720 --> 00:57:41,200 putting the cart before the horse here but uh you know my cloud save of you 799 00:57:38,920 --> 00:57:44,039 know Mario Kart and we can unlock all the characters without me actually 800 00:57:42,559 --> 00:57:49,039 having to physically bring my console or my games right cool cool yay Cloud 801 00:57:47,319 --> 00:57:53,240 features in a way that is not you know terrible or if like you can go over to 802 00:57:51,319 --> 00:57:55,960 your friend you know back to an Xbox example if you can be like yeah hey you 803 00:57:54,559 --> 00:57:59,079 want to play this game together that I just Scott you go over there you don't 804 00:57:57,640 --> 00:58:04,280 actually have to bring your your disc you don't have to bring your console you can just sit down at his console you 805 00:58:01,280 --> 00:58:06,400 sign into your Xbox account or log on to 806 00:58:04,280 --> 00:58:10,359 you know your Live account on his Windows 10 PC or whatever or hers and 807 00:58:09,240 --> 00:58:19,680 you can just play it and you can experience it together that is so cool and that is the way that it should be I 808 00:58:15,599 --> 00:58:22,520 am all for personal licenses for things 809 00:58:19,680 --> 00:58:29,720 um and I am even willing to accept a subscription model for that experience 810 00:58:25,400 --> 00:58:31,319 where if I go sit for if I go well not 811 00:58:29,720 --> 00:58:36,880 but for a lot of things if I sit down in front of a computer I want to have the 812 00:58:34,160 --> 00:58:42,319 full Microsoft Office experience I am an Office 365 subscriber and I love it and 813 00:58:40,319 --> 00:58:46,359 same for something like Creative Cloud to be able to just be like okay on any 814 00:58:44,160 --> 00:58:49,599 computer I don't have to have a CD key I don't have to have a disc I don't have 815 00:58:47,880 --> 00:58:55,000 there's some advantages to Creative Cloud but boy do I have opinions about 816 00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:57,680 it I know it's not perfect Taran but 817 00:58:55,000 --> 00:59:03,200 this is probably worth mention Adobe has committed to send out not one but two 818 00:59:00,599 --> 00:59:07,200 technicians to our site to come investigate um this month to come 819 00:59:05,280 --> 00:59:10,640 investigate how we're using the products and some of the challenges that we have 820 00:59:08,559 --> 00:59:16,000 and help us improve our workflow which for the first time ever as an Adobe 821 00:59:13,200 --> 00:59:20,720 customer I really feel valued and like the $600 a month or whatever it is I 822 00:59:18,319 --> 00:59:26,280 give them is actually going somewhere other than a black hole pit of money at 823 00:59:23,760 --> 00:59:31,119 the Adobe headquarters it was my complainy videos about Premiere that 824 00:59:29,119 --> 00:59:34,960 ended up setting this up I never expected that anything would come from 825 00:59:32,640 --> 00:59:38,039 those I I just I make these videos where I complain about the features Premiere 826 00:59:36,359 --> 00:59:44,680 doesn't have yeah and like are actually quite rude about it yeah they 827 00:59:40,920 --> 00:59:46,960 are um like super snarky can we talk 828 00:59:44,680 --> 00:59:50,760 about um gravitational waves next because this is amazing uh sure do you 829 00:59:48,920 --> 00:59:56,400 want to hang out to me the article so I already did wow you are like a somewhat 830 00:59:54,359 --> 01:00:01,079 competent person it's not the article it's a Reddit Mega thread which I don't 831 00:59:58,200 --> 01:00:06,400 know probably is a very excellent thing to uh get to so 832 01:00:03,680 --> 01:00:10,200 anyway gravitational waves I don't know much about these but it's kind well I'm 833 01:00:08,960 --> 01:00:16,319 glad you're informing the rest of us then it's kind of um as amazing as 834 01:00:13,520 --> 01:00:20,240 discovering like uh electromagnetic waves almost sort of like we don't 835 01:00:18,640 --> 01:00:24,280 really know exactly what we'll be able to do with them uh I just I usually I 836 01:00:22,680 --> 01:00:29,319 know a lot more details cuz this stuff really interests me but basically 837 01:00:26,599 --> 01:00:33,760 um it's an enormous Discovery um this was been theorized by uh what is it 838 01:00:31,480 --> 01:00:39,559 special or general relativity I think general relativity for like since 839 01:00:35,799 --> 01:00:42,319 Einstein and we just now um determined 840 01:00:39,559 --> 01:00:46,440 that it is in fact a thing so the direct detection of them the direct detection 841 01:00:44,520 --> 01:00:50,960 has happened cuz in 1993 they had already indirectly detected them yes 842 01:00:48,400 --> 01:00:54,480 they and and a Nobel Prize or whatever in physics was awarded for that and now 843 01:00:52,960 --> 01:00:58,200 someone's going to get a prize for this but check this out what it was it was so 844 01:00:56,079 --> 01:01:02,119 cool it's so cool how they found these is they got like this thing that shot a 845 01:01:00,240 --> 01:01:07,760 laser that got split in two and then bounced back and the tiny tiny 846 01:01:05,280 --> 01:01:12,280 differences in the interference between those two lasers was used to detect if 847 01:01:10,520 --> 01:01:17,480 waves of gravity gravitational waves were happening because all of SpaceTime 848 01:01:15,200 --> 01:01:22,400 gets kind of warped so they'll bounce back at different rates and it's like 849 01:01:19,799 --> 01:01:27,000 just minuscule amount and what it was that was detected was two super massive 850 01:01:25,000 --> 01:01:32,119 black holes spinning together and colliding which apparently output 50 851 01:01:29,760 --> 01:01:39,079 times this is amazing 50 times the energy of the entire universe during 852 01:01:35,160 --> 01:01:41,520 that event like and then and then we get 853 01:01:39,079 --> 01:01:46,839 this tiny blip back here on Earth like 1 billion years later isn't that amazing 854 01:01:44,599 --> 01:01:50,880 don't quote me on the 50 times thing I I saw that some physicist might have said 855 01:01:48,960 --> 01:01:55,240 that but it's kind of here say right now so you can check out the mega thread 856 01:01:53,520 --> 01:02:00,279 yeah very much a developing uh developing at but but basically I mean 857 01:01:58,160 --> 01:02:03,520 like it's as exciting as discovering the electron cuz we don't really know what 858 01:02:01,880 --> 01:02:09,240 it's going to be useful for power not energy appar until okay until like 859 01:02:07,000 --> 01:02:13,960 future advancements but like physicists are extremely excited about this it's 860 01:02:12,279 --> 01:02:17,079 amazing yeah people are saying power not energy and it can't be more than the 861 01:02:15,520 --> 01:02:21,000 entire universe might have been a Galaxy or something anyway the point is a lot I 862 01:02:18,960 --> 01:02:24,920 I'll look for The Source on that one yeah but it was people are like can 863 01:02:23,160 --> 01:02:32,039 I power my computer with them no you cannot welcome to twitch chat 864 01:02:27,880 --> 01:02:34,400 yeah um all right what else we got here 865 01:02:32,039 --> 01:02:41,720 oh this is great uh Ubisoft developer concedes that the division um PC version 866 01:02:39,279 --> 01:02:46,760 was held back by the consoles so we're back to more more digging by Ubisoft 867 01:02:44,359 --> 01:02:52,319 original article here was from kit Guru and this was posted on the Forum by 868 01:02:48,760 --> 01:02:53,960 roohi Kumar s so an unnamed developer 869 01:02:52,319 --> 01:02:57,960 stated that they had to keep the PC version of the division in check with 870 01:02:56,440 --> 01:03:03,359 consoles because it would kind of be unfair to push it so far away from them 871 01:03:00,799 --> 01:03:05,760 Ubisoft sent PC games and a statement saying it has come to our attention that 872 01:03:04,599 --> 01:03:10,039 a comment from one of our team members has been perceived by some te some 873 01:03:08,319 --> 01:03:13,599 members of the community to imply the PC version of the division was held back 874 01:03:11,880 --> 01:03:16,599 and it is simply not true from the beginning the PC version of the division 875 01:03:15,119 --> 01:03:22,160 was developed from the ground up and we're confident players will enjoy the game and the features that this version 876 01:03:20,119 --> 01:03:25,400 has to offer and the feedback from PC players who participated in the recent 877 01:03:23,720 --> 01:03:29,440 closed beta supports this now to be clear 878 01:03:27,000 --> 01:03:35,520 I am not piling on the Ubisoft hate train on this one because I will be the 879 01:03:32,119 --> 01:03:37,119 first to hate on up crappy port a port 880 01:03:35,520 --> 01:03:41,119 that doesn't have graphical Fidelity sliders because they just couldn't be 881 01:03:39,000 --> 01:03:46,319 ared a port that says press a to continue when I do not have a game pad 882 01:03:44,839 --> 01:03:51,240 attached and when I press a on my keyboard it doesn't do a bloody thing 883 01:03:48,880 --> 01:03:56,000 that's what I object to whereas if they developed the game from the ground up on 884 01:03:53,920 --> 01:04:03,760 PC and it's well optimized and runs as well I'm not going to crucify them for 885 01:03:58,920 --> 01:04:06,799 that if the game has to exist within the 886 01:04:03,760 --> 01:04:08,559 same mortal realm as the PlayStation 4 887 01:04:06,799 --> 01:04:13,480 and the Xbox One like if they can't just make a completely different game for the 888 01:04:10,640 --> 01:04:17,920 PC and the Xbox one I understand that too you can't you can't be like oh well 889 01:04:16,039 --> 01:04:21,760 we've got this great idea for a gameplay mechanic that would have the you know 890 01:04:19,760 --> 01:04:25,480 player character blah blah this too many polygons something something like that 891 01:04:23,640 --> 01:04:31,359 it's just not technically feasible on all the platforms that the game has to 892 01:04:27,359 --> 01:04:33,200 be released on then in that way a game 893 01:04:31,359 --> 01:04:40,000 like the the the the paradig the gameplay paradigms might be held back by 894 01:04:36,319 --> 01:04:42,480 the consoles but that's not the same as 895 01:04:40,000 --> 01:04:46,480 nerfing the game because they didn't want to create too much disparity in the 896 01:04:44,279 --> 01:04:50,240 marketing materials between what the PC version and the console version looked 897 01:04:48,039 --> 01:04:55,720 like like what we saw with Watch Dogs mhm was watch doog significantly better 898 01:04:52,520 --> 01:04:58,119 on PC um no it was it was it was nerfed 899 01:04:55,720 --> 01:05:02,960 significantly from the original like uh E3 trailers that were showing off oh 900 01:05:00,160 --> 01:05:07,240 yeah that sucks so I don't feel like this is the same thing but it could be 901 01:05:05,200 --> 01:05:11,279 proven that I am totally wrong and I am giving them the benefit of the doubt for 902 01:05:08,599 --> 01:05:14,400 nothing I just I I believe they learned their 903 01:05:12,039 --> 01:05:19,400 lesson um and I I don't think they were stupid enough to do that again then 904 01:05:17,359 --> 01:05:25,200 again they are Ubisoft and they they they do they do dig um all right I've 905 01:05:22,960 --> 01:05:28,480 got one more or two more rapid fire topics here uh this was posted by doc 906 01:05:26,880 --> 01:05:33,160 Swag On The Forum original article here is from PC World let's go ahead and pop 907 01:05:30,200 --> 01:05:37,720 that up um coming soon to a consumer laptop near you smoother video with 908 01:05:35,119 --> 01:05:41,119 AMD's free sync so that's pretty cool I mean that was bound to happen eventually 909 01:05:39,599 --> 01:05:46,200 I mean the original demos of free sync were actually done on laptops because 910 01:05:44,319 --> 01:05:49,920 they're not inherently that different from like some laptops the way that the 911 01:05:48,240 --> 01:05:58,559 display and the GPU interface is not inherently that different from the way free sync works at all um oh AMD D Scott 912 01:05:56,440 --> 01:06:04,039 Watson good old Scott this was posted by doc Swag On The Forum apparently tweeted 913 01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:07,079 an image of what looks like a fury X2 or 914 01:06:04,039 --> 01:06:10,559 two Fiji gpus or something like that so 915 01:06:07,079 --> 01:06:13,720 Fury X2 is being teased wow it's coming 916 01:06:10,559 --> 01:06:16,000 really close to Polaris maybe Polaris 917 01:06:13,720 --> 01:06:24,400 isn't going to be as fast as I had hoped cuz if two fijes even makes any 918 01:06:20,200 --> 01:06:26,799 sense um H I have no opinions on this 919 01:06:24,400 --> 01:06:33,720 topic that's fine uh oh actually oh crap oh there 920 01:06:30,559 --> 01:06:35,599 were oh man Opera got bought for 1.2 921 01:06:33,720 --> 01:06:40,279 billion by a Chinese Consortium um so that's sort of a bummer 922 01:06:38,119 --> 01:06:43,480 if you if you cared about the Opera browser which I personally didn't but 923 01:06:42,160 --> 01:06:48,559 I'm sure some people do what is Nick doing uh selfie sticks are actually banned in this office yeah also Disney 924 01:06:46,799 --> 01:06:54,440 World so yeah I'm going to take a selfie with you 925 01:06:51,200 --> 01:06:56,359 guys on the W show what are you why can 926 01:06:54,440 --> 01:07:01,039 can they see I felt like I wasn't interrupting anyone's day oh yeah we 927 01:06:58,599 --> 01:07:09,760 like with the giant penis in the window thank you for that by the way um 928 01:07:05,039 --> 01:07:10,880 by so 1.2 billion uh wow actually yeah 929 01:07:09,760 --> 01:07:17,480 there's dang it there's a bunch of really good stuff okay there is one more that I did want to discuss though so 930 01:07:14,119 --> 01:07:19,200 this was originally posted by syntax vgm 931 01:07:17,480 --> 01:07:24,039 on the Forum the original article is actually from 932 01:07:20,720 --> 01:07:27,880 wired and is about how wired is going to 933 01:07:24,039 --> 01:07:29,880 handle ad blocking M so wired is going 934 01:07:27,880 --> 01:07:36,400 to start um offering a subscription based 935 01:07:33,279 --> 01:07:39,799 service for people who want to browse 936 01:07:36,400 --> 01:07:44,119 the site without ads and they are going 937 01:07:39,799 --> 01:07:46,599 to block access to their content from 938 01:07:44,119 --> 01:07:54,440 people who are using an ad blocker now there is no uh there is no like hard and 939 01:07:51,599 --> 01:08:01,319 fast tried and true for sure we can do this way to block ad blocking but 940 01:07:58,599 --> 01:08:06,760 they're going to try has this been tried before oh yeah oh yeah definitely has it 941 01:08:03,480 --> 01:08:08,640 succeeded before um I don't know to be 942 01:08:06,760 --> 01:08:11,319 perfectly honest with you cuz cuz one thing that might happen is people with 943 01:08:09,839 --> 01:08:16,159 ad block just won't visit them anymore and they won't pay 944 01:08:13,480 --> 01:08:20,920 um I don't know I mean it all I mean it's it's the whole it's the whole 945 01:08:18,040 --> 01:08:25,960 piracy argument again right like you know well I won't I won't I wouldn't 946 01:08:23,759 --> 01:08:30,120 have paid for it anyway or I would I wouldn't have looked at the ad anyway 947 01:08:28,159 --> 01:08:33,920 I don't remember what it is but okay so anyway couple quotes So on an average 948 01:08:32,279 --> 01:08:37,560 day more than 20% of the traffic to wi.com comes from a reader who is 949 01:08:35,600 --> 01:08:40,319 blocking our ads we know that you come to our site primarily to read our 950 01:08:39,000 --> 01:08:45,080 content but it's important to be clear that advertising is how we keep wired going paying the writers editors 951 01:08:43,279 --> 01:08:48,480 designers engineers and other staff that work so hard to create the stories that 952 01:08:46,560 --> 01:08:52,400 you read and watch here so there will be two easy options to access that content 953 01:08:50,520 --> 01:08:55,600 you can simply add.com to your ad blockers white list they're not even 954 01:08:53,960 --> 01:08:59,159 going as far as to say don't use ad blocker because there are a lot of 955 01:08:56,960 --> 01:09:02,759 compelling reasons to use an ad blocker when you do we will keep the ads as 956 01:09:00,799 --> 01:09:06,520 polite as we can and you will only see standard display advertising or number 957 01:09:04,799 --> 01:09:10,239 two you can subscribe to a brand new AdFree version of wire.com and for a 958 01:09:08,920 --> 01:09:15,799 dollar a week you will get complete access to our content with no display advertising or ad tracking I think a 959 01:09:13,400 --> 01:09:19,799 dollar a week is out to lunch I can't think of a website on Earth that I would 960 01:09:17,679 --> 01:09:23,199 pay a dollar a week rather than I thought it was a dollar a month I didn't 961 01:09:21,000 --> 01:09:28,960 even hear week cuz it was kind of okay YouTube R I would pay the $109 9 or 962 01:09:25,880 --> 01:09:32,560 whatever $1.99 it is for you mon that's 963 01:09:28,960 --> 01:09:35,120 per month okay but we're talking wired 964 01:09:32,560 --> 01:09:40,400 wants something like what 40% of the cost of YouTube red or 30% or something 965 01:09:37,520 --> 01:09:45,319 like that H and and it's one of those things where whether they like it and 966 01:09:43,880 --> 01:09:52,400 whether you like it or whether anyone likes it or not the value of 967 01:09:48,480 --> 01:09:55,600 written is just not as high it's not 968 01:09:52,400 --> 01:09:57,400 perceived to be as high as the value of 969 01:09:55,600 --> 01:10:02,360 video Even though and this is a point I've made many times there are so many 970 01:09:59,760 --> 01:10:05,600 YouTube videos that would be way better as articles yep right because it's just 971 01:10:04,159 --> 01:10:10,640 pictures and talking just let me read it because 972 01:10:07,920 --> 01:10:14,800 there can be as much or more that goes into a really well done written article 973 01:10:13,040 --> 01:10:18,120 as a video for sure and there can also be a lot more that goes into a video 974 01:10:16,880 --> 01:10:22,120 than an article which doesn't to say video is easy like we're not we're not 975 01:10:20,560 --> 01:10:27,280 we're not making push a couple buttons in the video edits itself I don't know 976 01:10:24,040 --> 01:10:29,679 about you so we've had a really dis 977 01:10:27,280 --> 01:10:34,760 interesting discussion on the Forum uh we've had that goes back and forth uh 978 01:10:32,679 --> 01:10:40,560 between people who have sort of different different sort of uh different 979 01:10:37,800 --> 01:10:45,640 opinions one way or the other so there's there's the usual like okay you know 980 01:10:43,000 --> 01:10:48,679 it's it's their right to set a price uh the price is whatever they say it is and 981 01:10:47,280 --> 01:10:53,159 if you don't like it then you don't have to visit the site um there's people 982 01:10:50,960 --> 01:10:57,440 saying that wired is shooting themselves in the foot because ultimately no one's 983 01:10:55,920 --> 01:11:03,159 going to be interested in advertising with them at all if they can't show 984 01:10:59,080 --> 01:11:04,920 massive site traffic numbers um which is 985 01:11:03,159 --> 01:11:09,920 which which they will be able to if they don't actively block people from 986 01:11:07,440 --> 01:11:15,480 accessing their site 20% to a greater degree hey 20% can be a can be a pretty 987 01:11:13,199 --> 01:11:19,719 darn big deal that's you know we could get 20% more traffic to our whatevers 988 01:11:17,640 --> 01:11:22,719 that'd be awesome and then you know other people are saying you know blah 989 01:11:21,159 --> 01:11:25,719 blah blah I shouldn't have to pay for it other people are saying you know uh just 990 01:11:24,679 --> 01:11:30,880 because something is posted on the internet doesn't mean it's free and people are saying well they should find 991 01:11:28,920 --> 01:11:35,719 other ways to other ways to support it other than obnoxious ads and I guess one 992 01:11:32,960 --> 01:11:39,840 of the things that I want to point out um and it was it was going to be a 993 01:11:37,080 --> 01:11:46,400 direct response to someone but I didn't remember who it was and I didn't 994 01:11:43,480 --> 01:11:49,320 unfortunately um who reads yeah someone was saying blah blah blah of course you 995 01:11:47,840 --> 01:11:53,639 have the right to control your browsing experience on your computer and modify 996 01:11:51,440 --> 01:11:57,159 web code on your computer but the content provider also has the right to 997 01:11:55,239 --> 01:12:02,040 block their ads and so you know you we sure we can have this arms race um blah 998 01:12:00,360 --> 01:12:06,000 blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah yeah I really wish I 999 01:12:04,080 --> 01:12:10,880 could find I really wish I could find the uh well what what did he say damn it 1000 01:12:09,120 --> 01:12:15,719 I don't remember I'm trying to find the post and I'm very sad right now very 1001 01:12:13,760 --> 01:12:20,120 very sad right now it's hard to think when you have a camera on you and it's 1002 01:12:17,520 --> 01:12:28,400 live the point I was going to make in response though is that if you back 1003 01:12:24,400 --> 01:12:30,639 content providers into a corner where I 1004 01:12:28,400 --> 01:12:35,960 mean frankly we're doing great we're we're surviving just fine but many 1005 01:12:33,280 --> 01:12:41,159 written sites are not and that's where things like audio or autop playing video 1006 01:12:38,280 --> 01:12:47,120 or full page ads are coming from is they are in my mind mistakenly um getting 1007 01:12:44,560 --> 01:12:51,760 more and more in your face about the ads in an attempt to keep their advertising 1008 01:12:49,440 --> 01:12:55,520 revenues high enough in order to survive because frankly it is an awful lot of 1009 01:12:53,480 --> 01:12:59,040 work to make good content whether it's video or whether it's written and it's 1010 01:12:57,320 --> 01:13:03,400 unfortunate that people don't value the written content the way that they used 1011 01:13:00,600 --> 01:13:11,760 to so what I the argument that I'm making is if you refuse to subscribe and 1012 01:13:06,320 --> 01:13:13,480 you refuse to view ads um one of the oh 1013 01:13:11,760 --> 01:13:18,480 that's a bummer do a SoundCloud could be forced to close after $44 million losses 1014 01:13:16,360 --> 01:13:22,280 is an article I just pulled up here okay I was just on the subject of companies 1015 01:13:20,280 --> 01:13:27,440 not being able to finance themselves yeah and so on go on then what you might 1016 01:13:25,280 --> 01:13:31,560 find yourself stuck with is a lot more native advertising and what Native 1017 01:13:29,639 --> 01:13:37,360 advertising can look like is things like you know those sponsored articles um 1018 01:13:34,440 --> 01:13:43,280 things like that um where it's not actually immediately 1019 01:13:39,800 --> 01:13:45,719 obvious um you know like uh like what 1020 01:13:43,280 --> 01:13:52,400 would it be like you know this plant that Dr Oz said was amazing yeah um you 1021 01:13:48,400 --> 01:13:56,679 could end up with a lot of that instead 1022 01:13:52,400
