--> 00:01:58,920 that is taking the nation and the world 26 00:01:54,920 --> 00:02:00,719 it swept pretty much everything um tops 27 00:01:58,920 --> 00:02:05,560 daily Twitter users and sees more engagement than Facebook something that 28 00:02:03,240 --> 00:02:09,640 not many apps can boast and we've got a lot of news around 29 00:02:08,119 --> 00:02:15,840 Pokemon go it's going to be actually some pretty fun conversation the csgo 30 00:02:12,280 --> 00:02:17,840 gambling debacle continues valve has 31 00:02:15,840 --> 00:02:21,239 issued a statement so we'll get into that and sort of what that means in a 32 00:02:19,239 --> 00:02:27,440 little bit here um it is customary for the co-host 33 00:02:24,640 --> 00:02:31,480 to do two of the call out topics he's new at this don't worry folks sh it's 34 00:02:29,480 --> 00:02:35,599 okay PC shipments in the US are growing for the first time in quote unquote ages 35 00:02:34,120 --> 00:02:41,239 it's only been a few years but it's still been quite a long time uh and then 36 00:02:38,760 --> 00:02:45,360 also Nintendo is releasing a miniature nest with 30 built-in games so that 37 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:52,400 could be cool that actually sounds freaking awesome let's roll the intro go 38 00:02:47,680 --> 00:02:52,400 away go away Colton go away go 39 00:02:54,879 --> 00:03:02,000 away at least I'm hoping the intro will roll at some point here 40 00:03:00,440 --> 00:03:07,920 yep you should go do the thing so Colton doesn't have it it sure is supposed to I 41 00:03:04,280 --> 00:03:09,879 will I will uh 42 00:03:07,920 --> 00:03:17,200 seriously wow uh 43 00:03:12,879 --> 00:03:19,840 so I am not sure if we are oh oh oh we 44 00:03:17,200 --> 00:03:26,000 are we are we are we are broadcasting a thing I 45 00:03:23,239 --> 00:03:34,159 oh I pulled the network versions that's why it didn't work um so 46 00:03:30,879 --> 00:03:36,080 the intro will not be occurring today 47 00:03:34,159 --> 00:03:40,560 and Nick will jump into our first Pokemon go topic while I change my shirt 48 00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:47,319 does that mean that the sponsor stuff isn't on there yes it does okay we should probably fix that yeah we'll 49 00:03:43,519 --> 00:03:49,680 figure that out okay anyway so as lonus 50 00:03:47,319 --> 00:03:54,360 alluded to earlier Pokemon go has topped Twitter daily users and sees more 51 00:03:51,760 --> 00:04:00,079 engagement than Facebook currently uh so it's now the biggest mobile game in US 52 00:03:56,519 --> 00:04:02,239 history approximately 5.92% of the us 53 00:04:00,079 --> 00:04:07,799 Android population engages with the app on a daily basis which is insane um so 54 00:04:06,200 --> 00:04:11,400 that's the highest percentage of daily users on Android or sorry the highest 55 00:04:09,760 --> 00:04:17,600 percentage of daily users on Android is in Australia uh at about 7.98% of all 56 00:04:15,120 --> 00:04:20,600 Android users in the country um and like is it even officially launched in 57 00:04:18,919 --> 00:04:24,600 Australia maybe people in the chat can tell me but uh I don't think it is I 58 00:04:23,080 --> 00:04:30,759 could be wrong though uh and then the current Peak daily active users is just 59 00:04:26,880 --> 00:04:32,600 over 20 million people uh Candy Crush 60 00:04:30,759 --> 00:04:37,880 Sager reached approximately 20 million back in 23 or 2013 61 00:04:35,440 --> 00:04:42,800 so remember how big the scope of that was uh it's even bigger than Candy Crush 62 00:04:40,840 --> 00:04:48,000 and then Clash Royale only reached about six million at its peak in 2016 uh so 63 00:04:45,840 --> 00:04:53,240 it's closing in on Snapchat on Android right now which is pretty insane and uh 64 00:04:50,720 --> 00:04:56,360 professional yeah look at you huh and apparently the Pokemon go Android 65 00:04:54,600 --> 00:05:02,199 application could even pass Google Maps on Android in terms of daily users like 66 00:04:59,280 --> 00:05:07,039 what what yeah so more people are trying to find a map to where to find Little 67 00:05:04,800 --> 00:05:10,840 Monsters than people who are trying to find a map to get to their grandmother's 68 00:05:09,320 --> 00:05:15,639 house I'm just G to move somewhere to actually do something productive yes I'm 69 00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:21,000 gonna move the mic right next to you okay and so uh so on Monday the average 70 00:05:18,360 --> 00:05:27,960 iPhone user spent 33 minutes in Pokemon go uh be the average iPhone user yeah 71 00:05:24,880 --> 00:05:29,759 the in America in America wow yeah uh 72 00:05:27,960 --> 00:05:35,600 and that beats Facebook which saw about 22 minutes and 8 seconds on average uh 73 00:05:33,120 --> 00:05:39,680 and I mean to be clear Facebook has probably more staying power than Pokemon 74 00:05:37,759 --> 00:05:45,080 go yes but don't I mean don't quote me on that maybe Pokemon go will be the new 75 00:05:42,120 --> 00:05:50,560 social media app and it will completely overtake everything ever and replace 76 00:05:48,000 --> 00:05:54,840 YouTube and Facebook and Twitter and Snapchat and Instagram all at the same 77 00:05:52,120 --> 00:05:58,639 time uh but probably not so this is very much a hype train at the moment and I 78 00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:02,240 don't expect them to be able to sustain these kinds of numbers over the long 79 00:06:00,000 --> 00:06:08,720 term like someone like Facebook has managed to do but um still it's 80 00:06:06,720 --> 00:06:13,000 incredibly impressive I mean when you consider that the average iPhone user 81 00:06:11,199 --> 00:06:19,479 spent half an hour in Pokemon go that means for every like old person like me 82 00:06:16,720 --> 00:06:23,160 who didn't play it at all so this is US statistics remember yeah that's fine so 83 00:06:21,319 --> 00:06:28,720 for every old person like me who didn't play it at all that day someone played 84 00:06:25,039 --> 00:06:31,759 for an entire hour like if you look at 85 00:06:28,720 --> 00:06:33,599 pretty much anyone who does Vlog style 86 00:06:31,759 --> 00:06:37,199 content on YouTube right now like they're just walking around being like 87 00:06:35,639 --> 00:06:41,680 everyone here is playing Pokemon literally and I'm sure that it's 88 00:06:40,280 --> 00:06:45,880 more prevalent in the really concentrated areas uh like LA and New 89 00:06:43,960 --> 00:06:49,880 York where a lot of these guys reside I mean I've seen a lot of people going oh 90 00:06:47,440 --> 00:06:54,680 I can only get like four Pokemon in my area which is in like Montana or 91 00:06:51,680 --> 00:06:56,280 whatever but I mean just the sheer 92 00:06:54,680 --> 00:07:00,440 number of people who are engaging with the app on a daily basis is ridiculous 93 00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:06,199 absolutely abolutely ridiculous so the original article here was from Tech crunch let's go ahead and pull that up 94 00:07:04,039 --> 00:07:11,280 yeah absolutely love it you know what's kind of sad is I've been so busy this 95 00:07:08,879 --> 00:07:16,440 last week I have not only not played Pokemon go I haven't seen anyone play 96 00:07:13,479 --> 00:07:21,120 Pokemon go right I I haven't installed it yet I pretty much haven't been 97 00:07:17,800 --> 00:07:23,360 outside of work or my house yeah in this 98 00:07:21,120 --> 00:07:28,400 last week or so it's been it's been a sort of a challenging challenging period 99 00:07:25,400 --> 00:07:30,599 here it looks very fun though yep so I 100 00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:35,199 guess yeah that's that's great oh actually here's a few more numbers as 101 00:07:32,199 --> 00:07:38,520 far as the installs go so uh Pokémon go 102 00:07:35,199 --> 00:07:41,840 Android installs and daily active users 103 00:07:38,520 --> 00:07:44,720 so in New Zealand 60 New Zealand and 104 00:07:41,840 --> 00:07:51,599 Australia love their Pokemon go that is absolutely fantastic between 6.6 to 105 00:07:47,400 --> 00:07:55,520 almost 8% daily active users and about 106 00:07:51,599 --> 00:07:57,639 15 to 16% of people have it installed 107 00:07:55,520 --> 00:08:01,560 pretty incredible so let's talk about some of the worst news with respective 108 00:07:59,720 --> 00:08:04,720 Pokémon go this article is from tweak toown let's go ahead and pull this 109 00:08:04,800 --> 00:08:12,039 up San Diego residents brush with death 110 00:08:08,560 --> 00:08:15,280 while playing Pokemon go fall off 111 00:08:12,039 --> 00:08:17,560 cliff wow they were both taken to Trauma 112 00:08:15,280 --> 00:08:21,960 Center suffering moderate injuries according to battalion chief Robbie Ford 113 00:08:20,479 --> 00:08:26,400 of the I'm not even going to try and pronounce that local fire department 114 00:08:24,000 --> 00:08:32,599 presumably where they were playing the game incat sure let's go with that 115 00:08:32,800 --> 00:08:42,000 sure so one of them fell somewhere between 75 and 100 feet and the other 116 00:08:38,760 --> 00:08:44,720 one approximately 50 feet and was found 117 00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:49,560 unconscious by firefighters holy crap the dude who fell a less or a lower 118 00:08:47,720 --> 00:08:53,560 distance was the one who was knocked unconscious so like he should be darn 119 00:08:51,640 --> 00:08:57,800 happy that his friend like fell a little better and was able to go yo dude we 120 00:08:55,920 --> 00:09:03,480 just fell off a cliff playing Pokemon please come save us like ridiculous 121 00:09:01,480 --> 00:09:08,200 unbelievable and then uh there was also a teen hit by a car while playing 122 00:09:05,920 --> 00:09:12,880 Pokemon go so the original article here is from Gamestop excuse me Gamespot 123 00:09:11,360 --> 00:09:17,440 that's completely different things actually even though it's just a couple 124 00:09:14,760 --> 00:09:20,600 letters Mo shifted yeah so 15-year-old female from Pennsylvania was hit by a 125 00:09:18,959 --> 00:09:24,399 car and hospitalized for injury injuries to her collarbone and foot uh in 126 00:09:22,399 --> 00:09:27,920 addition to numerous cuts and bruises the her mother says I blame the game 127 00:09:26,519 --> 00:09:35,120 because she would not have been out of my house my daughter is a 128 00:09:31,000 --> 00:09:38,720 Hermit so that's that uh I would like to 129 00:09:35,120 --> 00:09:40,680 clarify what a Hermit actually is before 130 00:09:38,720 --> 00:09:44,040 we actually go any further with this story well like a Hermit used to be 131 00:09:42,360 --> 00:09:50,120 someone who lived on like a royal property right but like never went 132 00:09:46,600 --> 00:09:52,720 Outdoors or something uh oh no I had not 133 00:09:50,120 --> 00:09:58,200 heard of that I thought Hermits lived in seclusion maybe like away from other 134 00:09:55,000 --> 00:10:00,200 people so you can't live in seclusion in 135 00:09:58,200 --> 00:10:03,360 your parents house yeah I'm just I'm going to look it up because you got me 136 00:10:01,279 --> 00:10:09,079 doubting myself a person living in solitude as a religious 137 00:10:05,760 --> 00:10:11,000 discipline so or decide yeah discipline 138 00:10:09,079 --> 00:10:16,360 okay yeah so so your daughter wasn't a Hermit for one thing just to be very 139 00:10:13,519 --> 00:10:22,120 clear about that and for number two you cannot 140 00:10:17,959 --> 00:10:24,600 blame an app on a phone for your 141 00:10:22,120 --> 00:10:32,000 daughter leaving the house for your daughter walking across a major highway 142 00:10:28,680 --> 00:10:35,519 yeah she says at 5:00 in the evening 143 00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:35,519 which is Rush Hour 144 00:10:35,560 --> 00:10:41,120 fantastic what else we got here uh a US 145 00:10:38,880 --> 00:10:46,040 Holocaust Museum asks players to stay away uh so somehow us Holocaust museum 146 00:10:43,920 --> 00:10:51,160 has been designated as a Pok stop um so that's you know developer 147 00:10:49,560 --> 00:10:53,880 slightly overlooking something there I would say uh the communications director 148 00:10:52,959 --> 00:10:59,680 of the museum has said that they're trying to get the museum removed from the game and that playing the game 149 00:10:57,120 --> 00:11:04,519 inside a memorial to victims of Nazism is extremely inappropriate which I would 150 00:11:01,720 --> 00:11:07,760 agree with uh a Dutch hospital has also asked that players refrain from entering 151 00:11:06,040 --> 00:11:11,600 the build their building uh with the sole purpose of playing Pokemon go after 152 00:11:09,320 --> 00:11:17,480 some players ventured into restricted areas uh and they posted a cute little 153 00:11:14,800 --> 00:11:20,800 picture through Twitter there uh where they said there's indeed a sick Pokemon 154 00:11:18,839 --> 00:11:23,839 at AMC but we'll have but we'll look after him well please don't visit him 155 00:11:22,560 --> 00:11:29,560 and it's like a Pikachu with little Band-Aids and stuff if you want to show that yeah I I will it takes a second 156 00:11:27,959 --> 00:11:34,880 sure oh okay yeah but 157 00:11:31,720 --> 00:11:38,639 like oh I mean it's one of those things 158 00:11:34,880 --> 00:11:40,639 where it's like I know that in Skyrim it 159 00:11:38,639 --> 00:11:45,600 is considered acceptable to just walk into anyone's house or any building just 160 00:11:43,920 --> 00:11:50,760 pick stuff and just start like bashing things with a sword to open them up you 161 00:11:48,200 --> 00:11:56,800 know like this is this is the typical RPG player Behavior yeah but that don't 162 00:11:54,279 --> 00:12:03,000 lean away from the mic oh sorry uh this is the typical RPG player Behavior but 163 00:11:59,000 --> 00:12:04,600 but while we are looking for Pokemon in 164 00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:11,760 augmented reality we're not supposed to be just like behaving as though we're 165 00:12:08,200 --> 00:12:13,279 looking for Pokemon in augment okay so 166 00:12:11,760 --> 00:12:17,079 we are supposed to be behaving that way but we're supposed to remember that we 167 00:12:15,519 --> 00:12:21,160 are also operating from within the real world and that is that is not that is 168 00:12:19,399 --> 00:12:27,079 not considered the the most most appropriate way to yes well you get the 169 00:12:23,519 --> 00:12:29,959 point I hope hopefully yes so here's the 170 00:12:27,079 --> 00:12:35,680 uh uh I don't know I don't know what he needs the tissues for but you know oh 171 00:12:33,720 --> 00:12:39,720 right he's got a cold that's right it's a little Pikachu got some snot that's 172 00:12:37,600 --> 00:12:44,000 the AMC uh Twitter post which is extremely cute I'm glad they at least 173 00:12:41,360 --> 00:12:49,600 had a sense of humor about it yeah um but like that's serious apparently 174 00:12:46,680 --> 00:12:54,079 people were going into their basement um where there's like where they 175 00:12:51,560 --> 00:13:01,360 essentially sterilize like bed sheets and stuff like holy crap you're exposing 176 00:12:57,399 --> 00:13:04,040 yourself to like serious possible like 177 00:13:01,360 --> 00:13:10,399 pathogens harmful pathogens and tainted bodily fluids and ah 178 00:13:07,839 --> 00:13:16,519 just I understand that it's Pokemon and that you're stoked to go catch Pokemon 179 00:13:12,000 --> 00:13:18,959 but like have some sense please please 180 00:13:16,519 --> 00:13:24,279 um in a little bit more positive news uh there's a Long Long Island pizza place 181 00:13:21,880 --> 00:13:29,720 uh who has their sales who has had their sales increased by 182 00:13:25,839 --> 00:13:32,399 75% uh by using Pokémon go lure 183 00:13:29,720 --> 00:13:37,360 yeah this is a huge thing so Luke and I were actually talking about this earlier 184 00:13:34,120 --> 00:13:39,279 this week and um it is I don't know if 185 00:13:37,360 --> 00:13:43,440 this is confirmed at this point it was a speculated thing earlier in the week 186 00:13:41,399 --> 00:13:51,000 when we were discussing it but apparently I want to say bread garden 187 00:13:46,880 --> 00:13:54,000 had made it a chain wide procedure nice 188 00:13:51,000 --> 00:13:56,560 to constantly spam lures at their 189 00:13:54,000 --> 00:14:01,440 locations in order to draw in people who were playing Pokémon go and this has 190 00:13:59,040 --> 00:14:06,959 become and that this is this is amazing to me because it's almost like um like 191 00:14:05,480 --> 00:14:14,160 something I've talked about before on the show and just in general is how 192 00:14:10,000 --> 00:14:15,959 computers had this um progression that 193 00:14:14,160 --> 00:14:21,839 they followed where they were kind of slow and not really useful and only like 194 00:14:18,560 --> 00:14:24,279 nerds used them and then over time they 195 00:14:21,839 --> 00:14:28,360 got more accessible they got uh less expensive they got more powerful they 196 00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:31,959 got more functional and this happened over span of here you can sco over a 197 00:14:30,079 --> 00:14:38,079 littleit too this happened over a span of decades in the case of computers 198 00:14:34,240 --> 00:14:41,079 right and phones have gone through just 199 00:14:38,079 --> 00:14:43,120 this accelerated version of that right 200 00:14:41,079 --> 00:14:48,639 where the first smartphones were kind of like stupid and quite frankly didn't do 201 00:14:46,160 --> 00:14:55,560 much I mean people forget this but the iPhone couldn't copy paste I mean come 202 00:14:53,120 --> 00:14:58,920 on it couldn't copy paste and that was only what like 10 years ago N9 years ago 203 00:14:57,759 --> 00:15:03,440 I don't even know if that was 10 years ago like 2008 or something like that so 204 00:15:00,880 --> 00:15:07,399 like eight years ago maybe yeah so so that was not a long time ago and now 205 00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:12,079 they've gotten to the point where I feel like a lot of phone reviewers are just 206 00:15:09,399 --> 00:15:15,440 kind of bored of phones because it's sort of the same thing year to year the 207 00:15:13,800 --> 00:15:24,160 camera's a little better but like it was already pretty good okay so I'm taking that whole thing 208 00:15:20,880 --> 00:15:26,920 where computers and phones have gone 209 00:15:24,160 --> 00:15:31,639 through this these this the this much accelerated progression through the 210 00:15:29,000 --> 00:15:36,040 stages of of just for nerds then exciting to everyone then it kind of got 211 00:15:33,480 --> 00:15:42,720 boring right so it feels like as a mobile app Pokemon go is going through 212 00:15:39,759 --> 00:15:49,319 an accelerated version of previous social applications where it's like you 213 00:15:45,959 --> 00:15:51,199 know Facebook was just used on on a Col 214 00:15:49,319 --> 00:15:54,480 on a single college campus and then multiple college campuses and then all 215 00:15:52,759 --> 00:15:59,160 of a sudden it went massively mainstream and now your grandma's on it okay but 216 00:15:56,360 --> 00:16:03,800 that took a long time and what also took a long time was 217 00:16:01,560 --> 00:16:08,240 advertisers figuring out how to leverage the platform and ruin it for the users 218 00:16:06,079 --> 00:16:15,279 right okay so all these platforms YouTube Facebook Twitter they start out 219 00:16:11,399 --> 00:16:17,720 free and then there's ads and then 220 00:16:15,279 --> 00:16:22,199 there's sponsored tweets and then there's you know companies trying to 221 00:16:19,839 --> 00:16:26,800 spend lots of money on attempted viral videos or whatever the case may be it 222 00:16:23,680 --> 00:16:29,279 goes It goes commercial yeah Pokemon go 223 00:16:26,800 --> 00:16:37,199 took like two days to go from free sort of microtransaction 224 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:39,120 but but free fun app to businesses 225 00:16:37,199 --> 00:16:42,680 figuring out how to cash in on it and spamming lures in front of their stores 226 00:16:40,600 --> 00:16:47,639 in order to get you to buy more pizza which leads us finally into let's be 227 00:16:44,800 --> 00:16:51,560 fair there though because I actually don't have that big of a problem with 228 00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:54,600 this because they're not saying oh yeah we have a lure in here you can only come 229 00:16:53,040 --> 00:16:59,000 in if you're buying Pizza as far as I know no no they're just providing a safe 230 00:16:57,240 --> 00:17:03,959 place for people to congregate where you can also enjoy some food and 231 00:17:00,959 --> 00:17:05,360 drink if you so choose yes and I 232 00:17:03,959 --> 00:17:08,839 actually prefer this because like they're placing lures here whereas other 233 00:17:07,280 --> 00:17:12,720 people are placing lures in the middle of parks in the middle of the night and 234 00:17:10,280 --> 00:17:16,679 holding people up at gunpoint yeah no I'm not okay I'm not saying it's wrong 235 00:17:14,919 --> 00:17:21,520 right I'm just saying that by the same logic um you know we're just putting the 236 00:17:19,679 --> 00:17:27,000 W show here and we're just saying you know hey uh linda.com you know hey it's 237 00:17:24,640 --> 00:17:30,799 a thing and you can you can sign up for it you can not sign up for I'm just 238 00:17:28,160 --> 00:17:35,440 saying like that that commercialization the advertisers taking over and figuring 239 00:17:34,000 --> 00:17:41,799 out how to leverage the platform happened so fast we have to remember 240 00:17:38,280 --> 00:17:44,039 though that it's very similar to Ingress 241 00:17:41,799 --> 00:17:47,919 true so a lot of this stuff did develop over time in Ingress but the impact was 242 00:17:46,440 --> 00:17:53,559 much lower the impact was much lower because Ingress wasn't this 243 00:17:50,160 --> 00:17:55,120 phenomenon um but I mean it's you know 244 00:17:53,559 --> 00:18:00,080 what you're saying is true but there are a lot of other factors I 245 00:17:57,039 --> 00:18:02,880 think all right all right so let's see 246 00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:08,360 there's not much left so the Lindo L lenio whatever Pizza Bar in Long 247 00:18:06,640 --> 00:18:13,159 Island New York started using the in-game lures as of Monday July 11th it 248 00:18:10,480 --> 00:18:18,360 was reported that Pokémon go had 7.5 oh wait what the crap is this I think some 249 00:18:15,440 --> 00:18:23,120 of the notes got mixed up okay anyway there this is wow nean has confirmed 250 00:18:21,320 --> 00:18:27,880 that retail establishments will be able to pay to have their shop become a 251 00:18:25,559 --> 00:18:32,480 sponsored location that hosts rare Pokémon attractive items or a gym so 252 00:18:31,320 --> 00:18:40,039 this is where we start getting into issues and this leads into the next topic this is this is happening so 253 00:18:37,159 --> 00:18:45,640 unbelievably fast the Pokemon go partnership with McDonald's is on Source 254 00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:50,000 says according to Gizmodo Source everyone is using the same like two 255 00:18:47,480 --> 00:18:54,120 stock images in Pokemon go it's awesome for their articles I mean it doesn't 256 00:18:51,640 --> 00:18:57,760 matter you could you can use any picture Pokemon go you want completely doesn't 257 00:18:55,880 --> 00:19:02,400 matter at all but like all right let's get into the det details here what do 258 00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:04,559 you got okay so uh redditors discovered 259 00:19:02,400 --> 00:19:08,280 decompiled code in Android and iOS versions of Pokemon go earlier this week 260 00:19:06,679 --> 00:19:13,400 and part of that code indicated a potential sponsorship deal with 261 00:19:09,960 --> 00:19:16,520 McDonald's apparently uh so as Lina said 262 00:19:13,400 --> 00:19:18,120 a well-placed source has confirmed with 263 00:19:16,520 --> 00:19:23,760 Gizmodo that the sponsorship is moving forward and is set to launch in one 264 00:19:20,039 --> 00:19:25,440 country in Asia um and Gizmodo learned 265 00:19:23,760 --> 00:19:29,200 that every McDonald's restaurant in this country will either be a poké stop or a 266 00:19:27,600 --> 00:19:33,039 gym uh they're unable to confirm which 267 00:19:30,640 --> 00:19:37,520 country it would debut at but the guess uh based on several compelling reasons 268 00:19:35,559 --> 00:19:43,799 uh including that this country is the birthplace of the Pokemon company uh is 269 00:19:40,679 --> 00:19:47,039 that it will be Japan which makes a lot 270 00:19:43,799 --> 00:19:49,480 of sense uh and this could actually be 271 00:19:47,039 --> 00:19:54,120 the reason why the launch has been delayed in Japan because apparently 272 00:19:51,000 --> 00:19:55,880 there are a number of very upset people 273 00:19:54,120 --> 00:19:59,159 in Japan about the fact that it hasn't been released yet there for seemingly no 274 00:19:57,919 --> 00:20:05,520 reason uh this might be the reason maybe they said hey roll it out in us see how it 275 00:20:03,360 --> 00:20:08,520 goes if it's as crazy you guys as you guys expect it's going to be then you 276 00:20:07,159 --> 00:20:13,559 know we'll Pony up the money to have McDonald's everywhere in Japan be Poké 277 00:20:10,840 --> 00:20:17,280 stops and gyms and we'll launch there which like I don't know I find this 278 00:20:15,799 --> 00:20:21,320 whole thing a little ironic that it's partnership with McDonald's because 279 00:20:18,799 --> 00:20:26,600 Pokemon go is all about like hey get up and go outside walk around and be 280 00:20:23,520 --> 00:20:29,280 healthy and eat McDonald's 281 00:20:26,600 --> 00:20:37,679 W so that's a little weird um but I mean I 282 00:20:34,000 --> 00:20:40,600 guess it makes sense in a way again it's 283 00:20:37,679 --> 00:20:44,840 positive in the sense that they're providing locations for people to 284 00:20:42,240 --> 00:20:49,679 congregate that aren't some Bush in a park at 3:00 a.m. where some dude is 285 00:20:47,080 --> 00:20:54,640 going to try to rob you um but I don't know I just what are your 286 00:20:52,200 --> 00:21:01,679 feelings on it um honestly I am trying to put the lower 287 00:20:58,159 --> 00:21:04,320 or third on here right 288 00:21:01,679 --> 00:21:07,919 now and I hadn't technical difficulties I hadn't been listening to a bloody 289 00:21:05,640 --> 00:21:11,559 thing you said actually no I was okay McDonald's uh partnership with Pokemon 290 00:21:10,039 --> 00:21:15,520 go possibly launching in Japan yeah I don't mind it at all um mind it I I 291 00:21:13,679 --> 00:21:19,200 don't I don't mind okay so there's a couple things that I do mind about it so 292 00:21:17,159 --> 00:21:23,440 I don't mind people having like you said a safe place to go to play right to to 293 00:21:22,080 --> 00:21:29,000 congregate to do this somewhere that's well lit um somewhere that you know 294 00:21:26,000 --> 00:21:31,919 there's staff around with a phone to 295 00:21:29,000 --> 00:21:37,960 call 911 or whatever get attack or whatever emergency number happens to be 296 00:21:34,360 --> 00:21:41,039 um I don't even mind that you can go 297 00:21:37,960 --> 00:21:45,000 there to get some rare Pokemon like a 298 00:21:41,039 --> 00:21:48,080 you know Hamburglar chew or whatever the 299 00:21:45,000 --> 00:21:50,200 case may be like I don't mind that but 300 00:21:48,080 --> 00:21:56,159 what does bother me about it a little bit is that to say that McDonald's 301 00:21:53,799 --> 00:22:02,000 restaurants will be the place to go to obtain a rare Pokemon implies that you 302 00:21:59,400 --> 00:22:08,360 won't be able to get it anywhere else right so those rare Pokemon that you 303 00:22:05,679 --> 00:22:15,320 could otherwise get some other way are going to be limited to McDonald's so if 304 00:22:12,799 --> 00:22:23,600 if you're creating something special something different um the the the the 305 00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:25,840 the Ronald McDonald lacks or you know 306 00:22:23,600 --> 00:22:30,880 whatever actually that's that's that's what they should just call McDonald's 307 00:22:27,039 --> 00:22:33,320 food in general oh my god oh no and 308 00:22:30,880 --> 00:22:40,000 McDonald's never sponsored the L show oh no um that was awful okay so wasn't 309 00:22:37,120 --> 00:22:46,600 great if you're creating new content around it and I can be a purist like a 310 00:22:42,919 --> 00:22:49,200 Pokemon purist who doesn't care about 311 00:22:46,600 --> 00:22:49,200 the MC 312 00:22:51,520 --> 00:22:58,880 Squirtle hey Burger King we got your backs you know what I'm saying um where 313 00:22:56,840 --> 00:23:04,320 where I don't care about thex Squirtle then I can still be a completionist um 314 00:23:02,440 --> 00:23:09,760 when it comes to the actual Pokemon and the actual uh 315 00:23:07,400 --> 00:23:14,799 achievements and whatever else is part of the main game right but if you're 316 00:23:11,679 --> 00:23:17,520 going to go okay yeah if you want you 317 00:23:14,799 --> 00:23:19,760 know you have to buy five Happy Meals to get a 318 00:23:19,960 --> 00:23:25,960 Mewtwo then then it gets then it's pretty frustrating to me and then it's 319 00:23:24,039 --> 00:23:29,120 something that I'm not not necessarily a huge fan of someone says mix Squirtle 320 00:23:27,640 --> 00:23:36,559 leak Squirtle leaked yeah well was kind of where I was going with that um oh no um 321 00:23:34,880 --> 00:23:40,480 like that brings up an interesting point though because I think they're only I 322 00:23:38,760 --> 00:23:44,600 think Pokemon go currently like I said I haven't played it yet I don't know 323 00:23:42,520 --> 00:23:47,960 entirely what it's all about um I think they only either have gen one or gen one 324 00:23:46,400 --> 00:23:54,440 and gen two Pokemon I think it's just gen one Pokemon um but there's like 325 00:23:51,000 --> 00:23:57,400 hundreds now yep so maybe they're going 326 00:23:54,440 --> 00:24:03,760 like hey sport check if you want you know the legendaries from gen 3 to be 327 00:23:59,679 --> 00:24:06,279 sport check exclusives like pay us money 328 00:24:03,760 --> 00:24:09,960 like that's I agree I don't necessarily like that and you know what there's ways 329 00:24:08,360 --> 00:24:14,960 that they can be smart about this as well um like for example timed 330 00:24:12,720 --> 00:24:21,679 exclusives are a lot more palatable to me than forever exclusives so if you are 331 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:24,480 rolling out new Pokemon very slowly and 332 00:24:21,679 --> 00:24:29,919 you kind of go okay if you want to be the first place where you can get one of 333 00:24:26,720 --> 00:24:33,120 those then the obsessives who absolutely 334 00:24:29,919 --> 00:24:36,000 have to have again like a like a gen 3 335 00:24:33,120 --> 00:24:40,320 legendary or something like that fine they can just go to McDonald's and buy a 336 00:24:37,720 --> 00:24:45,080 Big Mac I don't care but the people who can wait a couple of weeks if they can 337 00:24:42,320 --> 00:24:52,080 still get one in a legitimate manner then that's super cool I I I 338 00:24:48,120 --> 00:24:54,159 don't mind that at all y for sure and I 339 00:24:52,080 --> 00:24:58,240 like to be clear I don't think there has been any confirmation of like this 340 00:24:56,880 --> 00:25:02,320 Pokemon will be specific specific to this retail location or anything yet 341 00:25:01,000 --> 00:25:08,679 right but we're just saying that it would be concerning if that did happen 342 00:25:06,279 --> 00:25:12,919 y oh man like there's some like there's some pretty there's actually some kind 343 00:25:10,320 --> 00:25:17,880 of uh some kind of scary stuff in there like for example what if in Manhattan 344 00:25:15,840 --> 00:25:23,120 McDonald's set it up so that you had to visit like every McDonald's in Manhattan 345 00:25:20,039 --> 00:25:23,120 to get oh 346 00:25:24,760 --> 00:25:30,320 no that would be very troubling um 347 00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:35,840 should we do the chat app one yeah sure let's do it okay Soh apparently Jonathan 348 00:25:33,640 --> 00:25:40,159 Zara was a beta tester in the summer uh for Pokemon go uh he could see that it 349 00:25:38,440 --> 00:25:45,440 offered users no way to chat with one another so he was like Hey I should 350 00:25:42,559 --> 00:25:48,200 probably create something around that um and he said that especially in a 351 00:25:46,799 --> 00:25:55,039 location based game of course there should be a chat so you can text your buddy and be like Yo dude here's where 352 00:25:51,600 --> 00:25:57,960 I'm at just caught eradicate it's dope 353 00:25:55,039 --> 00:26:02,799 uh So within five days of the the launch of Pokémon go Zara's free app for for 354 00:26:00,919 --> 00:26:08,080 Pokemon Go Chat is approaching 1 million users and hitting servers with 600 355 00:26:05,039 --> 00:26:10,240 requests per second that is unbelievable 356 00:26:08,080 --> 00:26:15,080 and apparently now it may drive him bankrupt because the server costs are 357 00:26:12,240 --> 00:26:19,399 getting like ridiculously high you know the guys I'll give him I'll give him 358 00:26:17,120 --> 00:26:23,720 credit for sticking to his principles here um so this is the original article 359 00:26:21,520 --> 00:26:29,159 here is from the verge.com I'll give him credit for sticking to his principles so 360 00:26:25,840 --> 00:26:32,399 he says he doesn't want to ad support it 361 00:26:29,159 --> 00:26:35,840 because he hates 362 00:26:32,399 --> 00:26:38,159 ads and doesn't want to draw attention 363 00:26:35,840 --> 00:26:42,600 from the Pokemon company and I'm like okay because you 364 00:26:40,559 --> 00:26:47,960 know what makes sense the definition of selling out is compromising your 365 00:26:45,039 --> 00:26:53,279 principles for money that's the definition so if you love ads and you 366 00:26:51,080 --> 00:26:57,960 think ads are great and you have no problem with ads personally and you kind 367 00:26:54,840 --> 00:27:00,080 of go okay well you know so there you go 368 00:26:57,960 --> 00:27:03,159 I consume ads therefore I will also serve ads and people can consume them 369 00:27:01,840 --> 00:27:08,320 and ads make the world go around and this is great then there's nothing wrong 370 00:27:05,919 --> 00:27:14,200 with having ads in your application or your content or whatever else the case 371 00:27:10,159 --> 00:27:17,120 may be but if you you hate ads you 372 00:27:14,200 --> 00:27:21,600 adamantly refuse to use products and services that are supported by ads and 373 00:27:19,679 --> 00:27:26,559 you just kind of like nope nope I do not agree with this I refuse to take part in 374 00:27:23,600 --> 00:27:32,679 this then I got to give him credit for sticking with his principes 375 00:27:28,440 --> 00:27:35,919 and not implementing ads with 376 00:27:32,679 --> 00:27:37,799 that if you have a super successful app 377 00:27:35,919 --> 00:27:45,440 and you are providing a service that people are willing to either endure ads 378 00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:48,000 or pay for it is not very business smart 379 00:27:45,440 --> 00:27:54,840 to be spending your own money maintaining it when you have a community 380 00:27:51,320 --> 00:27:58,559 of literally a million people that wants 381 00:27:54,840 --> 00:28:00,240 to use it yeah and like the 382 00:27:58,559 --> 00:28:03,799 the pay for the app thing is what he wants to avoid in order to not attract 383 00:28:02,399 --> 00:28:09,600 attention from the Pokemon company because like that would probably result 384 00:28:07,039 --> 00:28:14,080 him in a lot of trouble but like if you're doing responsible advertising 385 00:28:11,559 --> 00:28:19,679 that's not like taking over the screen or like playing music at a ridiculously 386 00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:23,600 high volume or like weird like Pokemon porn or something like that like if 387 00:28:21,519 --> 00:28:29,080 you're not infringing on Nintendo or netics um intellectual property in any 388 00:28:26,799 --> 00:28:33,279 way and even like have a disclaimer to be like hey Pokemon company if you see 389 00:28:31,440 --> 00:28:37,559 this like I only have ads on here so that I don't go broke any profit that 390 00:28:35,600 --> 00:28:41,679 I'm making is going to ex charity or whatever and then they can still slam 391 00:28:39,480 --> 00:28:45,399 him with a cease and desist that can still happen and they can still shut 392 00:28:43,640 --> 00:28:49,000 down his app but at the end of the day at least then he hasn't paid out of 393 00:28:47,039 --> 00:28:54,840 pocket for it something that doesn't make a ton of sense I don't know I 394 00:28:52,039 --> 00:29:02,240 mean yeah like good on him for seeing an issue and like doing something to 395 00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:04,360 correct it but holy crap man everyone's 396 00:29:02,240 --> 00:29:07,440 like stop the Pokemon stop the Pokemon there's nothing we can do to stop the 397 00:29:05,679 --> 00:29:11,320 Pokemon yeah dude I'm personally

and coming okay you need to tell the people about Min right Ministry of Supply so 455 00:33:14,399 --> 00:33:19,600 Ministry of Supply combines performance Fabrics Advanced manufacturing 456 00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:23,559 techniques and tailored design to make where to work clothes that are 457 00:33:21,000 --> 00:33:28,960 comfortable and capable yes my friends your clothing can do this

clearing this up for you people so 460 00:33:36,679 --> 00:33:41,559 Ministry of Supply starts by studying ergonomics how the human body moves and 461 00:33:40,320 --> 00:33:47,279 functions to ensure they're putting the right technology in the right place which is why you won't find a jock strap 462 00:33:45,200 --> 00:33:51,279 over top of your nipple the products keep you cool and dry with sweat wicking 463 00:33:49,200 --> 00:33:54,639 fibers breathable fabrics and NASA developed phase change materials which 464 00:33:52,720 --> 00:33:59,320 help regulate your body temperature so basically

let's move into some 498 00:36:15,440 --> 00:36:21,640 non-pokemon topics here I'm sure that we 499 00:36:18,720 --> 00:36:27,240 have some right oh yes okay yeah here we go so the original article here is from 500 00:36:24,359 --> 00:36:31,880 jones.com and this is aett uh this is a pretty serious pretty 501 00:36:29,920 --> 00:36:38,160 serious sort of topic here the other original article is from the steam store 502 00:36:35,079 --> 00:36:39,839 so there's an in-game trading update 503 00:36:38,160 --> 00:36:44,920 from valve so they've acknowledged that there 504 00:36:42,040 --> 00:36:48,800 are a number of gambling sites uh that have started leveraging the Steam 505 00:36:46,160 --> 00:36:52,839 Trading System great job uh being on top of that guys it's been a problem for a 506 00:36:50,440 --> 00:36:55,800 while didn't really take a long time so good and they claim that there have been 507 00:36:54,079 --> 00:36:59,680 some false assumptions made about their involvement with the with those sites 508 00:36:58,240 --> 00:37:05,680 they wanted to clarify that they have no business relationships with any of the sites they have never directly received 509 00:37:03,359 --> 00:37:11,240 any revenue from them and steam does not have a system for turning in-game items 510 00:37:07,480 --> 00:37:13,319 into real world currency so okay 511 00:37:11,240 --> 00:37:18,440 technically all of those statements are correct they claim that the sites have 512 00:37:15,599 --> 00:37:22,520 been using the open ID API in a way that is not allowed by their user agreements 513 00:37:21,359 --> 00:37:29,680 and they are going to start sending notices to these sites requesting they cease operations through Steam and will 514 00:37:26,880 --> 00:37:34,920 further pursue the matter as necessary and what they also had to say um this is 515 00:37:32,359 --> 00:37:39,280 from the article is that users should probably consider this information as 516 00:37:37,079 --> 00:37:45,599 they manage their in-game inventory and their trade activity so basically dump 517 00:37:42,359 --> 00:37:47,920 your items now I tried to find the link 518 00:37:45,599 --> 00:37:52,359 for this I was looking at the Global Offensive Reddit yesterday and there 519 00:37:49,839 --> 00:37:57,359 were claims that some of these uh illicit gambling sites had actually 520 00:37:54,359 --> 00:37:59,760 disabled their trade Bots 521 00:37:57,359 --> 00:38:05,359 so like people had like thousands of dollars worth of 522 00:38:01,319 --> 00:38:08,240 inventory and they just couldn't get it 523 00:38:05,359 --> 00:38:11,599 now there's some speculation that the sites are just updating their terms of 524 00:38:09,920 --> 00:38:16,800 service and updating their use of the API to abide by valve's clarified rules 525 00:38:14,319 --> 00:38:21,280 but it is unclear exactly how they will do so um bottom line here is that valve 526 00:38:19,520 --> 00:38:26,760 seems to finally be taking a stand against unregulated gambling using their 527 00:38:23,200 --> 00:38:30,119 in-game items long overdue but I mean 528 00:38:26,760 --> 00:38:32,480 you can't it's like it's like if your 529 00:38:30,119 --> 00:38:37,880 kid's not doing their homework for a week and they're way behind and then 530 00:38:35,040 --> 00:38:42,560 like they do it all finally you don't yell at them for doing it so I don't 531 00:38:40,520 --> 00:38:46,680 want to be overly critical but this really is overdue um to be clear this is 532 00:38:45,000 --> 00:38:51,599 very much an emerging story so as new information becomes available some of it 533 00:38:48,599 --> 00:38:54,119 may become outdated and uh will require 534 00:38:51,599 --> 00:38:57,800 further updates as time goes on uh there's a group of trial attorneys 535 00:38:55,440 --> 00:39:02,920 that's taking on class action requests in the csgo gambling lawsuit or in a 536 00:39:00,720 --> 00:39:06,920 csgo gambling lawsuit so they're stated they're pursuing multiple class action 537 00:39:04,839 --> 00:39:09,760 lawsuits in the US against valve and various skins gambling websites 538 00:39:08,440 --> 00:39:14,520 connected to the game Counter-Strike Global Offensive working diligently to 539 00:39:12,280 --> 00:39:18,920 recover funds from us residents who have lost money on skins through these 540 00:39:15,960 --> 00:39:23,880 illegal gambling contracts call 1 1800 recover your skins for help 541 00:39:21,640 --> 00:39:28,079 now it really does feel like a late night lawyer infomercial it feels like 542 00:39:26,119 --> 00:39:33,160 those Billboards that are all over the place in like large American yeah 543 00:39:30,359 --> 00:39:37,079 exactly exactly actually haven't watched that show yet is it good I I saw the 544 00:39:34,960 --> 00:39:41,640 first season on Netflix I thought it was very good cool okay um I can't remember 545 00:39:39,599 --> 00:39:46,920 his name but the GU the guy who plays Saul is uh a great actor I'm a fan man 546 00:39:45,000 --> 00:39:54,359 I'm a fan what's his name yeah uh wink Winkler Henry Winkler is that right nope 547 00:39:50,119 --> 00:39:57,480 oh okay crap nope nope Noe that's not 548 00:39:54,359 --> 00:39:59,839 him no uh one other thing that isn't in 549 00:39:57,480 --> 00:40:04,599 the dock but that I noticed uh twitch Bob Odenkirk wow Bob Oden how did I get 550 00:40:02,480 --> 00:40:11,119 that wrong I mean I guess they looks somewhat similar not really not that 551 00:40:06,760 --> 00:40:13,040 similar no not somewhat anyway The Fawns 552 00:40:11,119 --> 00:40:17,440 okay just forget it I'm pulling I'm having a Luke moment here like that's as 553 00:40:15,119 --> 00:40:22,560 bad as some of the stuff it's been a week let's just let's just say it's been 554 00:40:19,400 --> 00:40:24,240 a week okay uh you know we carry on on 555 00:40:22,560 --> 00:40:29,680 uh it's not in the dock here but twitch actually issued a statement that said uh 556 00:40:26,640 --> 00:40:31,680 uh that any you know in their terms of 557 00:40:29,680 --> 00:40:35,880 service it essentially says that if a streamer is streaming something that 558 00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:40,040 breaks the terms of service for of a third party then that is not allowed on 559 00:40:37,800 --> 00:40:43,200 Twitch so they've essentially come out and said you guys can't stream gambling 560 00:40:41,839 --> 00:40:47,160 sites anymore you guys can't take sponsorships from gambling sites anymore 561 00:40:45,000 --> 00:40:51,280 wow I'm sure that they have been wanting to do this for a while I remember it was 562 00:40:49,319 --> 00:40:56,400 a couple months ago it was getting super out of hand the csgo uh twitch page was 563 00:40:54,440 --> 00:40:59,560 always just like gamble gamble gamble gamble gamble for like the top 10 564 00:40:57,560 --> 00:41:03,440 streamers and they said something like you can only gamble on stream for 30 565 00:41:01,680 --> 00:41:08,000 minutes a day or something like that but it was so tough to enforce so I think 566 00:41:06,000 --> 00:41:11,400 they were just waiting on valve to finally make a statement on it and now 567 00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:14,040 they've come out and they said yeah okay this is out of hand you guys need to 568 00:41:12,680 --> 00:41:19,319 stop doing this so I mean I don't know I like like I 569 00:41:17,280 --> 00:41:23,200 said valve is technically correct in everything that they've said but I think 570 00:41:20,680 --> 00:41:30,400 that they're like trying to obscure the truth a bit because you can be darn sure 571 00:41:27,079 --> 00:41:32,119 that betting on csgo matches has 572 00:41:30,400 --> 00:41:38,400 increased viewership like I would personally say 573 00:41:35,560 --> 00:41:42,680 that I believe that happened um you could also say that losing while betting 574 00:41:40,880 --> 00:41:48,760 on csgo decreased viewership so I'm not going to try and say that there's a 575 00:41:43,960 --> 00:41:51,160 correlation or uh yeah but I don't know 576 00:41:48,760 --> 00:41:55,560 it's it's just such a nasty subject in my opinion all right let's move on to 577 00:41:53,680 --> 00:41:58,880 another kind of nasty subject but it turns out they got it sorted out the 578 00:41:57,240 --> 00:42:04,240 original article here is from Tom's Hardware NVIDIA GTX 1080 and 1070 579 00:42:02,560 --> 00:42:09,880 DisplayPort incompatible with the HTC Vive this is 580 00:42:07,680 --> 00:42:15,560 something I actually could have discovered on my own and been very very 581 00:42:13,160 --> 00:42:21,000 frustrated by if I had upgraded my media center PC so I actually use the Vive in 582 00:42:19,200 --> 00:42:27,800 my living room because my computer room doesn't have enough room for hollow 583 00:42:23,800 --> 00:42:29,880 point anyway um so what this means 584 00:42:27,800 --> 00:42:34,400 you're such a nerd I know what this means is that if you have a display 585 00:42:31,400 --> 00:42:37,200 plugged in via HDMI already like say for 586 00:42:34,400 --> 00:42:42,440 example a TV most of which do not have DisplayPort inputs if any um and you 587 00:42:40,520 --> 00:42:49,040 want to use DisplayPort into the mini DisplayPort in in the little uh the 588 00:42:45,359 --> 00:42:51,440 little input output box the 1070 and 589 00:42:49,040 --> 00:42:58,200 1080 just wouldn't work with it yeah not my 980 worked just fine but 590 00:42:55,960 --> 00:43:02,680 it was apparently a bug they have identified a solution and will'll be 591 00:43:00,520 --> 00:43:05,960 rolling it out in the next driver update which is this week the article is from 592 00:43:04,240 --> 00:43:11,119 the 11th uh they rolled out a driver update today so it probably wouldn't be 593 00:43:08,520 --> 00:43:14,800 a ridiculous assumption to say that that's probably it but I'm looking at 594 00:43:13,480 --> 00:43:20,440 this going like that is such a huge oversight I would imagine people having 595 00:43:17,119 --> 00:43:23,040 their display plugged in via HDMI and 596 00:43:20,440 --> 00:43:28,200 wanting to use DisplayPort for the Vive being a pretty common thing I mean I 597 00:43:26,520 --> 00:43:31,800 can't be the only one installing this somewhere I mean DisplayPort hasn't 598 00:43:29,960 --> 00:43:35,720 even been mainstream on monitors for longer than a couple of years I mean 599 00:43:34,400 --> 00:43:40,240 ASUS kind of addressed that with the stricks where they put two hdmis in yep 600 00:43:38,240 --> 00:43:43,960 so if you want to learn more about the stricks we have a video coming to 601 00:43:41,599 --> 00:43:47,119 YouTube next week uh yeah I think so just went to vessel last night see if 602 00:43:45,160 --> 00:43:53,720 you have vessel you can check that out um in other news PC shipments return to 603 00:43:51,520 --> 00:44:01,520 growth in the US wow glorious PC Master race am I 604 00:43:58,040 --> 00:44:04,280 right no no I'm not right unfortunately 605 00:44:01,520 --> 00:44:10,079 the news isn't all good and while PC shipments are up I think it what is it 606 00:44:06,119 --> 00:44:11,839 this quarter yeah uh they're still down 607 00:44:10,079 --> 00:44:16,800 overall for the year and the growth is not is not huge they're up I they might 608 00:44:14,319 --> 00:44:21,319 be up for the year in the US only but globally they're still down between 4 609 00:44:18,640 --> 00:44:26,599 and a half and 5.2% and even them we're talking like 610 00:44:23,119 --> 00:44:28,760 1.4% if you don't factor in Chromebooks 611 00:44:26,599 --> 00:44:32,160 yeah and we're talking 4.9% if you factor in Chromebooks we're talking 612 00:44:30,079 --> 00:44:37,839 literally like $100 computers so that's growth so that's that's unit count 613 00:44:34,599 --> 00:44:40,000 growth to be fair y uh I believe that 614 00:44:37,839 --> 00:44:45,160 these numbers only Factor like pre-built PC sales yep so that's been on the 615 00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:50,800 decline for a long time as more and more people realize that building a PC isn't 616 00:44:47,240 --> 00:44:53,440 as hard as we once thought it was or as 617 00:44:50,800 --> 00:44:57,760 some people once thought it was right speaking of PC Building not be 618 00:44:55,720 --> 00:45:02,920 that hard hard Terry Cruz pretty much took over our PC Master race yesterday 619 00:45:01,079 --> 00:45:07,480 because he's building a custom PC and I got to say like I'm a huge Terry Cruz 620 00:45:05,079 --> 00:45:13,160 fan that dude's Awesome Brooklyn 99 is like one of my favorite shows right now 621 00:45:09,960 --> 00:45:14,800 um so I was pretty happy when I saw this 622 00:45:13,160 --> 00:45:19,200 and uh there are a lot of memes going down some dank memes going on with h 623 00:45:16,960 --> 00:45:26,000 with the Glorious Terry Cruz putting the PC masterace hair on him with his 624 00:45:21,720 --> 00:45:27,599 Majestic figure and uh so he was you 625 00:45:26,000 --> 00:45:32,319 know he created a Facebook uh video outlining the parts in his PC which now 626 00:45:29,160 --> 00:45:34,280 has over 1.2 million views pretty darn 627 00:45:32,319 --> 00:45:38,079 significant uh he was very humble throughout the whole process asking the 628 00:45:35,839 --> 00:45:41,160 community for advice and uh checking what the community thought of his Parts 629 00:45:39,240 --> 00:45:46,599 choices which overall were pretty positive he chose a core i7 6800k 2 630 00:45:44,000 --> 00:45:52,800 terab SSD 32 gigs of Dominator PL platinums from Corsair and a GTX 1080 so 631 00:45:49,720 --> 00:45:54,119 pretty badass rig and also he paid for 632 00:45:52,800 --> 00:46:00,880 all those parts himself he wanted to make it very clear he wasn't doing like a sponsor deal or anything with Intel or 633 00:45:57,680 --> 00:46:02,240 NVIDIA or whoever and uh he says that 634 00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:06,359 he's building the gaming ring to spend more time with his son who is a big PC 635 00:46:04,319 --> 00:46:10,920 Gamer but he admits that he's also got a fast growing interest in PC gaming so he 636 00:46:08,800 --> 00:46:15,079 actually was part of the battlefield 1 pre3 event with like Jamie Fox and Snoop 637 00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:22,280 Dogg I think that was the one where there was uh a lot of uh let's say fog 638 00:46:18,720 --> 00:46:25,119 in the booth of all the people there um 639 00:46:22,280 --> 00:46:29,200 that may have been that one Snoop was there so yeah you don't really have to 640 00:46:26,960 --> 00:46:32,920 say any more than that yeah and uh he essentially said he really enjoyed 641 00:46:30,839 --> 00:46:36,920 playing Battlefield 1 there he's hooked on gaming and you know he's he's made it 642 00:46:35,079 --> 00:46:40,920 very clear that he's not going to be abandoning being this crazy like 643 00:46:39,079 --> 00:46:44,599 muscular huge dude he's still going to be a very physical guy but he wants PC 644 00:46:43,240 --> 00:46:48,640 gaming to be a bigger part of his life now which is uh pretty dope yeah that's 645 00:46:46,640 --> 00:46:53,160 cool pretty sweet I mean if he gets into VR especially some of the more physical 646 00:46:50,440 --> 00:46:57,040 games yeah he had an HTC Vive very nice on his table there so very nice pretty 647 00:46:55,160 --> 00:47:01,599 cool I would love to see like Terry Cruz do some live streams and I think he's 648 00:46:58,640 --> 00:47:06,599 already been on some twitch ads so like twitch get it going get it popping this 649 00:47:04,920 --> 00:47:13,079 looks pretty cool original article here is from techradar.com 650 00:47:08,440 --> 00:47:16,359 I mean this has been the the emulators 651 00:47:13,079 --> 00:47:17,559 argument for so long look Nintendo if 652 00:47:16,359 --> 00:47:24,000 you're going to tell us we're not allowed to emulate then give us a means 653 00:47:20,520 --> 00:47:26,040 to legitimately acquire the games yep 654 00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:32,920 and they've addressed this somewhat through retro console games but it's 655 00:47:29,319 --> 00:47:35,960 it's not always that well done um this 656 00:47:32,920 --> 00:47:40,040 actually looks like a fantastic 657 00:47:35,960 --> 00:47:42,160 solution check this out the nest is back 658 00:47:40,040 --> 00:47:47,040 it's a little mini Nest it's the same shape um but there's no cartridge to 659 00:47:44,559 --> 00:47:53,359 install in it or anything like that it's a much smaller size and it comes 660 00:47:49,160 --> 00:47:55,839 preloaded with 50 games 30 30 Games 661 00:47:53,359 --> 00:48:00,680 sorry did I say 50 sorry 30 games in it has an HDMI output so you'll actually be 662 00:47:58,240 --> 00:48:05,640 able to use it without buying yourself like uh what's that uh retro bit 663 00:48:03,760 --> 00:48:11,520 retrogen whatever that thing that Luke just bought that super expensive low 664 00:48:08,079 --> 00:48:12,880 latency analog to HDMI converter okay 665 00:48:11,520 --> 00:48:18,319 I'm going to I'm going to go grab it off of his desk while you run through some of some of the details here but a native 666 00:48:16,240 --> 00:48:23,680 HDMI output is awesome because you don't need any specialized Hardware in order 667 00:48:20,440 --> 00:48:25,920 to avoid the horrible processing latency 668 00:48:23,680 --> 00:48:32,880 that you'll encounter by trying to put a lowde signal into a modern TV I'm taking 669 00:48:29,800 --> 00:48:34,920 over the show now it's mine uh but the 670 00:48:32,880 --> 00:48:40,559 Wii are it will be available on November 11th of this year for $ 59.99 USD so 671 00:48:38,599 --> 00:48:45,480 like essentially the price of a new Wii U game which is freaking 672 00:48:43,000 --> 00:48:48,480 fantastic uh and there are actually some awesome and really classic games that 673 00:48:46,960 --> 00:48:54,640 are going to be a part of this so Donkey Kong uh Final Fantasy the first one uh 674 00:48:51,760 --> 00:48:58,119 Super Mario Bros 1 two three uh I think I started on two as well yeah I thought 675 00:48:56,480 --> 00:49:02,119 Mystic Quest was the first one so I've played Mystic Quest cuz it was called 676 00:49:00,280 --> 00:49:06,240 Final Fantasy Mystic Quest but it's not actually a Final Fantasy game oh it was 677 00:49:04,160 --> 00:49:10,119 like rebranded for North America or something it was one of those situations 678 00:49:07,760 --> 00:49:13,559 I don't remember the details interesting uh it'll also have the Legend of Zelda 679 00:49:11,599 --> 00:49:19,000 the very first one as well as the second one uh which is not as great of a of an 680 00:49:16,640 --> 00:49:23,920 experience I've not as welln I've heard it's a a bit of a subpar experience you 681 00:49:21,200 --> 00:49:27,640 know uh but yeah like this is awesome like I will play the crap out of this 682 00:49:25,799 --> 00:49:33,040 yeah and it's like what is it 60 bucks yeah 60 bucks the price of a new Wii U 683 00:49:30,040 --> 00:49:36,359 game you can get 30 classic Nest games 684 00:49:33,040 --> 00:49:39,240 in the little awesome HDMI Nintendo this 685 00:49:36,359 --> 00:49:42,799 is the right way to do it I like it I mean okay well to be clear I don't 686 00:49:41,359 --> 00:49:47,079 necessarily think that you should have to buy a piece of hardware for 687 00:49:44,920 --> 00:49:50,880 this I mean if they have okay I personally like it what if they offered 688 00:49:48,880 --> 00:49:54,880 this what if they also for 60 bucks had like a a package on Wii U Store package 689 00:49:53,079 --> 00:49:58,280 on the Wii U Store yeah like I I'd like to see that as well I think people would 690 00:49:56,520 --> 00:50:04,720 compl great I think people would complain because they would think that 60 bucks is too high and then um I'm 691 00:50:02,839 --> 00:50:08,319 Wonder like I wonder why they're choosing to do it this way maybe it's 692 00:50:06,240 --> 00:50:12,440 just like hey have this cool knickknack as well as all these games and like I 693 00:50:10,880 --> 00:50:16,319 personally like having Hardware stuff like I when I used to buy more PC games 694 00:50:14,880 --> 00:50:20,079 I used to like to buy the physical copies yeah because I like actually 695 00:50:18,400 --> 00:50:25,799 having like a library of games instead of just like oh yeah my steam is at like 696 00:50:22,440 --> 00:50:27,319 500 games now or whatever I don't know I 697 00:50:25,799 --> 00:50:31,240 like having something physical I think it's really cool I like the design of 698 00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:34,760 the nest it's you know a classic and having that on the table is like I don't 699 00:50:32,960 --> 00:50:37,839 know to me it's badass one thing I don't like about the nest is the design of the 700 00:50:36,319 --> 00:50:43,920 controller which they unfortunately didn't update yeah even rounded edges 701 00:50:41,200 --> 00:50:47,559 guys come on please please they wanted to give us back the horrible experience 702 00:50:45,720 --> 00:50:51,400 sorry it's frame Meister oh yes that's what I was thinking of that's what it is 703 00:50:48,920 --> 00:50:56,680 my bad retrogen makes uh like emulator consoles indubitably something says 704 00:50:53,880 --> 00:51:04,920 confirmed for old I mean it's true yeah but that hurts man 705 00:51:02,040 --> 00:51:10,160 hurts real bad it hurts real bad um you know what I don't see a whole 706 00:51:07,920 --> 00:51:14,520 lot else here that we really have to uh have to get

though like re building 714 00:51:41,520 --> 00:51:47,440 the WAN because it's like it's like a 715 00:51:44,839 --> 00:51:52,280 it's not that applicable to other people like we're going to build a completely 716 00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:54,520 overpowered ridiculous machine and like 717 00:51:52,280 --> 00:51:57,440 I don't I don't see that being that valuable to anyone else else but okay 718
