00:00:16.359 --> 00:00:22.119
half or so uh basically the computer I

00:00:19.760 --> 00:00:25.599
streamed from right before the WAN Show that some of you may or may not have

00:00:23.840 --> 00:00:32.759
watched I mean it's kind of been a while everyone who watched that stream is probably in bed by now probably um

00:00:30.880 --> 00:00:40.160
yeah so the computer that I streamed that stream from decided to it yeah does

00:00:36.760 --> 00:00:41.960
not it boots into Windows sometimes and

00:00:40.160 --> 00:00:46.480
then when it does it locks up within about two minutes it's having a bad day

00:00:44.640 --> 00:00:53.160
there you there you have it yes I know the camera is a little green um yeah I

00:00:50.960 --> 00:01:00.120

00:01:03.519 --> 00:01:10.200

so it's fine uh all right so guys let's

00:01:34.600 --> 00:01:42.399
get right into it we've got uh not a not a lot of time here based on the time

00:01:40.119 --> 00:01:51.560
that it happens to be right now and how little of it is left so topics Pokemon

00:01:45.680 --> 00:01:54.920
go is obviously the worldwide poo storm

00:01:51.560 --> 00:01:58.920
that is taking the nation and the world

00:01:54.920 --> 00:02:00.719
it swept pretty much everything um tops

00:01:58.920 --> 00:02:05.560
daily Twitter users and sees more engagement than Facebook something that

00:02:03.240 --> 00:02:09.640
not many apps can boast and we've got a lot of news around

00:02:08.119 --> 00:02:15.840
Pokemon go it's going to be actually some pretty fun conversation the csgo

00:02:12.280 --> 00:02:17.840
gambling debacle continues valve has

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

00:02:19.239 --> 00:02:27.440
little bit here um it is customary for the co-host

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

00:02:29.480 --> 00:02:35.599
okay PC shipments in the US are growing for the first time in quote unquote ages

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

00:02:38.760 --> 00:02:45.360
also Nintendo is releasing a miniature nest with 30 built-in games so that

00:02:43.760 --> 00:02:52.400
could be cool that actually sounds freaking awesome let's roll the intro go

00:02:47.680 --> 00:02:52.400
away go away Colton go away go

00:02:54.879 --> 00:03:02.000
away at least I'm hoping the intro will roll at some point here

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

00:03:04.280 --> 00:03:09.879
will I will uh

00:03:07.920 --> 00:03:17.200
seriously wow uh

00:03:12.879 --> 00:03:19.840
so I am not sure if we are oh oh oh we

00:03:17.200 --> 00:03:26.000
are we are we are we are broadcasting a thing I

00:03:23.239 --> 00:03:34.159
oh I pulled the network versions that's why it didn't work um so

00:03:30.879 --> 00:03:36.080
the intro will not be occurring today

00:03:34.159 --> 00:03:40.560
and Nick will jump into our first Pokemon go topic while I change my shirt

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

00:03:43.519 --> 00:03:49.680
figure that out okay anyway so as lonus

00:03:47.319 --> 00:03:54.360
alluded to earlier Pokemon go has topped Twitter daily users and sees more

00:03:51.760 --> 00:04:00.079
engagement than Facebook currently uh so it's now the biggest mobile game in US

00:03:56.519 --> 00:04:02.239
history approximately 5.92% of the us

00:04:00.079 --> 00:04:07.799
Android population engages with the app on a daily basis which is insane um so

00:04:06.200 --> 00:04:11.400
that's the highest percentage of daily users on Android or sorry the highest

00:04:09.760 --> 00:04:17.600
percentage of daily users on Android is in Australia uh at about 7.98% of all

00:04:15.120 --> 00:04:20.600
Android users in the country um and like is it even officially launched in

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

00:04:23.080 --> 00:04:30.759
could be wrong though uh and then the current Peak daily active users is just

00:04:26.880 --> 00:04:32.600
over 20 million people uh Candy Crush

00:04:30.759 --> 00:04:37.880
Sager reached approximately 20 million back in 23 or 2013

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

00:04:40.840 --> 00:04:48.000
and then Clash Royale only reached about six million at its peak in 2016 uh so

00:04:45.840 --> 00:04:53.240
it's closing in on Snapchat on Android right now which is pretty insane and uh

00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:56.360
professional yeah look at you huh and apparently the Pokemon go Android

00:04:54.600 --> 00:05:02.199
application could even pass Google Maps on Android in terms of daily users like

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

00:05:04.800 --> 00:05:10.840
Monsters than people who are trying to find a map to get to their grandmother's

00:05:09.320 --> 00:05:15.639
house I'm just G to move somewhere to actually do something productive yes I'm

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

00:05:18.360 --> 00:05:27.960
iPhone user spent 33 minutes in Pokemon go uh be the average iPhone user yeah

00:05:24.880 --> 00:05:29.759
the in America in America wow yeah uh

00:05:27.960 --> 00:05:35.600
and that beats Facebook which saw about 22 minutes and 8 seconds on average uh

00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:39.680
and I mean to be clear Facebook has probably more staying power than Pokemon

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

00:05:42.120 --> 00:05:50.560
social media app and it will completely overtake everything ever and replace

00:05:48.000 --> 00:05:54.840
YouTube and Facebook and Twitter and Snapchat and Instagram all at the same

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

00:05:56.960 --> 00:06:02.240
don't expect them to be able to sustain these kinds of numbers over the long

00:06:00.000 --> 00:06:08.720
term like someone like Facebook has managed to do but um still it's

00:06:06.720 --> 00:06:13.000
incredibly impressive I mean when you consider that the average iPhone user

00:06:11.199 --> 00:06:19.479
spent half an hour in Pokemon go that means for every like old person like me

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

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

00:06:25.039 --> 00:06:31.759
for an entire hour like if you look at

00:06:28.720 --> 00:06:33.599
pretty much anyone who does Vlog style

00:06:31.759 --> 00:06:37.199
content on YouTube right now like they're just walking around being like

00:06:35.639 --> 00:06:41.680
everyone here is playing Pokemon literally and I'm sure that it's

00:06:40.280 --> 00:06:45.880
more prevalent in the really concentrated areas uh like LA and New

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

00:06:47.440 --> 00:06:54.680
I can only get like four Pokemon in my area which is in like Montana or

00:06:51.680 --> 00:06:56.280
whatever but I mean just the sheer

00:06:54.680 --> 00:07:00.440
number of people who are engaging with the app on a daily basis is ridiculous

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

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

00:07:08.879 --> 00:07:16.440
last week I have not only not played Pokemon go I haven't seen anyone play

00:07:13.479 --> 00:07:21.120
Pokemon go right I I haven't installed it yet I pretty much haven't been

00:07:17.800 --> 00:07:23.360
outside of work or my house yeah in this

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

00:07:25.400 --> 00:07:30.599
here it looks very fun though yep so I

00:07:28.400 --> 00:07:35.199
guess yeah that's that's great oh actually here's a few more numbers as

00:07:32.199 --> 00:07:38.520
far as the installs go so uh Pokémon go

00:07:35.199 --> 00:07:41.840
Android installs and daily active users

00:07:38.520 --> 00:07:44.720
so in New Zealand 60 New Zealand and

00:07:41.840 --> 00:07:51.599
Australia love their Pokemon go that is absolutely fantastic between 6.6 to

00:07:47.400 --> 00:07:55.520
almost 8% daily active users and about

00:07:51.599 --> 00:07:57.639
15 to 16% of people have it installed

00:07:55.520 --> 00:08:01.560
pretty incredible so let's talk about some of the worst news with respective

00:07:59.720 --> 00:08:04.720
Pokémon go this article is from tweak toown let's go ahead and pull this

00:08:04.800 --> 00:08:12.039
up San Diego residents brush with death

00:08:08.560 --> 00:08:15.280
while playing Pokemon go fall off

00:08:12.039 --> 00:08:17.560
cliff wow they were both taken to Trauma

00:08:15.280 --> 00:08:21.960
Center suffering moderate injuries according to battalion chief Robbie Ford

00:08:20.479 --> 00:08:26.400
of the I'm not even going to try and pronounce that local fire department

00:08:24.000 --> 00:08:32.599
presumably where they were playing the game incat sure let's go with that

00:08:32.800 --> 00:08:42.000
sure so one of them fell somewhere between 75 and 100 feet and the other

00:08:38.760 --> 00:08:44.720
one approximately 50 feet and was found

00:08:42.000 --> 00:08:49.560
unconscious by firefighters holy crap the dude who fell a less or a lower

00:08:47.720 --> 00:08:53.560
distance was the one who was knocked unconscious so like he should be darn

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

00:08:55.920 --> 00:09:03.480
just fell off a cliff playing Pokemon please come save us like ridiculous

00:09:01.480 --> 00:09:08.200
unbelievable and then uh there was also a teen hit by a car while playing

00:09:05.920 --> 00:09:12.880
Pokemon go so the original article here is from Gamestop excuse me Gamespot

00:09:11.360 --> 00:09:17.440
that's completely different things actually even though it's just a couple

00:09:14.760 --> 00:09:20.600
letters Mo shifted yeah so 15-year-old female from Pennsylvania was hit by a

00:09:18.959 --> 00:09:24.399
car and hospitalized for injury injuries to her collarbone and foot uh in

00:09:22.399 --> 00:09:27.920
addition to numerous cuts and bruises the her mother says I blame the game

00:09:26.519 --> 00:09:35.120
because she would not have been out of my house my daughter is a

00:09:31.000 --> 00:09:38.720
Hermit so that's that uh I would like to

00:09:35.120 --> 00:09:40.680
clarify what a Hermit actually is before

00:09:38.720 --> 00:09:44.040
we actually go any further with this story well like a Hermit used to be

00:09:42.360 --> 00:09:50.120
someone who lived on like a royal property right but like never went

00:09:46.600 --> 00:09:52.720
Outdoors or something uh oh no I had not

00:09:50.120 --> 00:09:58.200
heard of that I thought Hermits lived in seclusion maybe like away from other

00:09:55.000 --> 00:10:00.200
people so you can't live in seclusion in

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

00:10:01.279 --> 00:10:09.079
doubting myself a person living in solitude as a religious

00:10:05.760 --> 00:10:11.000
discipline so or decide yeah discipline

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

00:10:13.519 --> 00:10:22.120
clear about that and for number two you cannot

00:10:17.959 --> 00:10:24.600
blame an app on a phone for your

00:10:22.120 --> 00:10:32.000
daughter leaving the house for your daughter walking across a major highway

00:10:28.680 --> 00:10:35.519
yeah she says at 5:00 in the evening

00:10:32.000 --> 00:10:35.519
which is Rush Hour

00:10:35.560 --> 00:10:41.120
fantastic what else we got here uh a US

00:10:38.880 --> 00:10:46.040
Holocaust Museum asks players to stay away uh so somehow us Holocaust museum

00:10:43.920 --> 00:10:51.160
has been designated as a Pok stop um so that's you know developer

00:10:49.560 --> 00:10:53.880
slightly overlooking something there I would say uh the communications director

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

00:10:57.120 --> 00:11:04.519
inside a memorial to victims of Nazism is extremely inappropriate which I would

00:11:01.720 --> 00:11:07.760
agree with uh a Dutch hospital has also asked that players refrain from entering

00:11:06.040 --> 00:11:11.600
the build their building uh with the sole purpose of playing Pokemon go after

00:11:09.320 --> 00:11:17.480
some players ventured into restricted areas uh and they posted a cute little

00:11:14.800 --> 00:11:20.800
picture through Twitter there uh where they said there's indeed a sick Pokemon

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

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

00:11:27.959 --> 00:11:34.880
sure oh okay yeah but

00:11:31.720 --> 00:11:38.639
like oh I mean it's one of those things

00:11:34.880 --> 00:11:40.639
where it's like I know that in Skyrim it

00:11:38.639 --> 00:11:45.600
is considered acceptable to just walk into anyone's house or any building just

00:11:43.920 --> 00:11:50.760
pick stuff and just start like bashing things with a sword to open them up you

00:11:48.200 --> 00:11:56.800
know like this is this is the typical RPG player Behavior yeah but that don't

00:11:54.279 --> 00:12:03.000
lean away from the mic oh sorry uh this is the typical RPG player Behavior but

00:11:59.000 --> 00:12:04.600
but while we are looking for Pokemon in

00:12:03.000 --> 00:12:11.760
augmented reality we're not supposed to be just like behaving as though we're

00:12:08.200 --> 00:12:13.279
looking for Pokemon in augment okay so

00:12:11.760 --> 00:12:17.079
we are supposed to be behaving that way but we're supposed to remember that we

00:12:15.519 --> 00:12:21.160
are also operating from within the real world and that is that is not that is

00:12:19.399 --> 00:12:27.079
not considered the the most most appropriate way to yes well you get the

00:12:23.519 --> 00:12:29.959
point I hope hopefully yes so here's the

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

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

00:12:37.600 --> 00:12:44.000
the AMC uh Twitter post which is extremely cute I'm glad they at least

00:12:41.360 --> 00:12:49.600
had a sense of humor about it yeah um but like that's serious apparently

00:12:46.680 --> 00:12:54.079
people were going into their basement um where there's like where they

00:12:51.560 --> 00:13:01.360
essentially sterilize like bed sheets and stuff like holy crap you're exposing

00:12:57.399 --> 00:13:04.040
yourself to like serious possible like

00:13:01.360 --> 00:13:10.399
pathogens harmful pathogens and tainted bodily fluids and ah

00:13:07.839 --> 00:13:16.519
just I understand that it's Pokemon and that you're stoked to go catch Pokemon

00:13:12.000 --> 00:13:18.959
but like have some sense please please

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

00:13:21.880 --> 00:13:29.720
uh who has their sales who has had their sales increased by

00:13:25.839 --> 00:13:32.399
75% uh by using Pokémon go lure

00:13:29.720 --> 00:13:37.360
yeah this is a huge thing so Luke and I were actually talking about this earlier

00:13:34.120 --> 00:13:39.279
this week and um it is I don't know if

00:13:37.360 --> 00:13:43.440
this is confirmed at this point it was a speculated thing earlier in the week

00:13:41.399 --> 00:13:51.000
when we were discussing it but apparently I want to say bread garden

00:13:46.880 --> 00:13:54.000
had made it a chain wide procedure nice

00:13:51.000 --> 00:13:56.560
to constantly spam lures at their

00:13:54.000 --> 00:14:01.440
locations in order to draw in people who were playing Pokémon go and this has

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

00:14:05.480 --> 00:14:14.160
something I've talked about before on the show and just in general is how

00:14:10.000 --> 00:14:15.959
computers had this um progression that

00:14:14.160 --> 00:14:21.839
they followed where they were kind of slow and not really useful and only like

00:14:18.560 --> 00:14:24.279
nerds used them and then over time they

00:14:21.839 --> 00:14:28.360
got more accessible they got uh less expensive they got more powerful they

00:14:26.360 --> 00:14:31.959
got more functional and this happened over span of here you can sco over a

00:14:30.079 --> 00:14:38.079
littleit too this happened over a span of decades in the case of computers

00:14:34.240 --> 00:14:41.079
right and phones have gone through just

00:14:38.079 --> 00:14:43.120
this accelerated version of that right

00:14:41.079 --> 00:14:48.639
where the first smartphones were kind of like stupid and quite frankly didn't do

00:14:46.160 --> 00:14:55.560
much I mean people forget this but the iPhone couldn't copy paste I mean come

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

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

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

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

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

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

00:15:20.880 --> 00:15:26.920
where computers and phones have gone

00:15:24.160 --> 00:15:31.639
through this these this the this much accelerated progression through the

00:15:29.000 --> 00:15:36.040
stages of of just for nerds then exciting to everyone then it kind of got

00:15:33.480 --> 00:15:42.720
boring right so it feels like as a mobile app Pokemon go is going through

00:15:39.759 --> 00:15:49.319
an accelerated version of previous social applications where it's like you

00:15:45.959 --> 00:15:51.199
know Facebook was just used on on a Col

00:15:49.319 --> 00:15:54.480
on a single college campus and then multiple college campuses and then all

00:15:52.759 --> 00:15:59.160
of a sudden it went massively mainstream and now your grandma's on it okay but

00:15:56.360 --> 00:16:03.800
that took a long time and what also took a long time was

00:16:01.560 --> 00:16:08.240
advertisers figuring out how to leverage the platform and ruin it for the users

00:16:06.079 --> 00:16:15.279
right okay so all these platforms YouTube Facebook Twitter they start out

00:16:11.399 --> 00:16:17.720
free and then there's ads and then

00:16:15.279 --> 00:16:22.199
there's sponsored tweets and then there's you know companies trying to

00:16:19.839 --> 00:16:26.800
spend lots of money on attempted viral videos or whatever the case may be it

00:16:23.680 --> 00:16:29.279
goes It goes commercial yeah Pokemon go

00:16:26.800 --> 00:16:37.199
took like two days to go from free sort of microtransaction

00:16:33.040 --> 00:16:39.120
but but free fun app to businesses

00:16:37.199 --> 00:16:42.680
figuring out how to cash in on it and spamming lures in front of their stores

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

00:16:44.800 --> 00:16:51.560
fair there though because I actually don't have that big of a problem with

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

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

00:16:57.240 --> 00:17:03.959
place for people to congregate where you can also enjoy some food and

00:17:00.959 --> 00:17:05.360
drink if you so choose yes and I

00:17:03.959 --> 00:17:08.839
actually prefer this because like they're placing lures here whereas other

00:17:07.280 --> 00:17:12.720
people are placing lures in the middle of parks in the middle of the night and

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

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

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

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

00:17:28.160 --> 00:17:35.440
saying like that that commercialization the advertisers taking over and figuring

00:17:34.000 --> 00:17:41.799
out how to leverage the platform happened so fast we have to remember

00:17:38.280 --> 00:17:44.039
though that it's very similar to Ingress

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

00:17:46.440 --> 00:17:53.559
much lower the impact was much lower because Ingress wasn't this

00:17:50.160 --> 00:17:55.120
phenomenon um but I mean it's you know

00:17:53.559 --> 00:18:00.080
what you're saying is true but there are a lot of other factors I

00:17:57.039 --> 00:18:02.880
think all right all right so let's see

00:18:00.080 --> 00:18:08.360
there's not much left so the Lindo L lenio whatever Pizza Bar in Long

00:18:06.640 --> 00:18:13.159
Island New York started using the in-game lures as of Monday July 11th it

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

00:18:15.440 --> 00:18:23.120
of the notes got mixed up okay anyway there this is wow nean has confirmed

00:18:21.320 --> 00:18:27.880
that retail establishments will be able to pay to have their shop become a

00:18:25.559 --> 00:18:32.480
sponsored location that hosts rare Pokémon attractive items or a gym so

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

00:18:37.159 --> 00:18:45.640
unbelievably fast the Pokemon go partnership with McDonald's is on Source

00:18:43.440 --> 00:18:50.000
says according to Gizmodo Source everyone is using the same like two

00:18:47.480 --> 00:18:54.120
stock images in Pokemon go it's awesome for their articles I mean it doesn't

00:18:51.640 --> 00:18:57.760
matter you could you can use any picture Pokemon go you want completely doesn't

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

00:18:58.880 --> 00:19:04.559
you got okay so uh redditors discovered

00:19:02.400 --> 00:19:08.280
decompiled code in Android and iOS versions of Pokemon go earlier this week

00:19:06.679 --> 00:19:13.400
and part of that code indicated a potential sponsorship deal with

00:19:09.960 --> 00:19:16.520
McDonald's apparently uh so as Lina said

00:19:13.400 --> 00:19:18.120
a well-placed source has confirmed with

00:19:16.520 --> 00:19:23.760
Gizmodo that the sponsorship is moving forward and is set to launch in one

00:19:20.039 --> 00:19:25.440
country in Asia um and Gizmodo learned

00:19:23.760 --> 00:19:29.200
that every McDonald's restaurant in this country will either be a poké stop or a

00:19:27.600 --> 00:19:33.039
gym uh they're unable to confirm which

00:19:30.640 --> 00:19:37.520
country it would debut at but the guess uh based on several compelling reasons

00:19:35.559 --> 00:19:43.799
uh including that this country is the birthplace of the Pokemon company uh is

00:19:40.679 --> 00:19:47.039
that it will be Japan which makes a lot

00:19:43.799 --> 00:19:49.480
of sense uh and this could actually be

00:19:47.039 --> 00:19:54.120
the reason why the launch has been delayed in Japan because apparently

00:19:51.000 --> 00:19:55.880
there are a number of very upset people

00:19:54.120 --> 00:19:59.159
in Japan about the fact that it hasn't been released yet there for seemingly no

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

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

00:20:07.159 --> 00:20:13.559
know we'll Pony up the money to have McDonald's everywhere in Japan be Poké

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

00:20:15.799 --> 00:20:21.320
whole thing a little ironic that it's partnership with McDonald's because

00:20:18.799 --> 00:20:26.600
Pokemon go is all about like hey get up and go outside walk around and be

00:20:23.520 --> 00:20:29.280
healthy and eat McDonald's

00:20:26.600 --> 00:20:37.679
W so that's a little weird um but I mean I

00:20:34.000 --> 00:20:40.600
guess it makes sense in a way again it's

00:20:37.679 --> 00:20:44.840
positive in the sense that they're providing locations for people to

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

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

00:20:52.200 --> 00:21:01.679
feelings on it um honestly I am trying to put the lower

00:20:58.159 --> 00:21:04.320
or third on here right

00:21:01.679 --> 00:21:07.919
now and I hadn't technical difficulties I hadn't been listening to a bloody

00:21:05.640 --> 00:21:11.559
thing you said actually no I was okay McDonald's uh partnership with Pokemon

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

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

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

00:21:22.080 --> 00:21:29.000
congregate to do this somewhere that's well lit um somewhere that you know

00:21:26.000 --> 00:21:31.919
there's staff around with a phone to

00:21:29.000 --> 00:21:37.960
call 911 or whatever get attack or whatever emergency number happens to be

00:21:34.360 --> 00:21:41.039
um I don't even mind that you can go

00:21:37.960 --> 00:21:45.000
there to get some rare Pokemon like a

00:21:41.039 --> 00:21:48.080
you know Hamburglar chew or whatever the

00:21:45.000 --> 00:21:50.200
case may be like I don't mind that but

00:21:48.080 --> 00:21:56.159
what does bother me about it a little bit is that to say that McDonald's

00:21:53.799 --> 00:22:02.000
restaurants will be the place to go to obtain a rare Pokemon implies that you

00:21:59.400 --> 00:22:08.360
won't be able to get it anywhere else right so those rare Pokemon that you

00:22:05.679 --> 00:22:15.320
could otherwise get some other way are going to be limited to McDonald's so if

00:22:12.799 --> 00:22:23.600
if you're creating something special something different um the the the the

00:22:18.840 --> 00:22:25.840
the Ronald McDonald lacks or you know

00:22:23.600 --> 00:22:30.880
whatever actually that's that's that's what they should just call McDonald's

00:22:27.039 --> 00:22:33.320
food in general oh my god oh no and

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

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

00:22:42.919 --> 00:22:49.200
Pokemon purist who doesn't care about

00:22:46.600 --> 00:22:49.200
the MC

00:22:51.520 --> 00:22:58.880
Squirtle hey Burger King we got your backs you know what I'm saying um where

00:22:56.840 --> 00:23:04.320
where I don't care about thex Squirtle then I can still be a completionist um

00:23:02.440 --> 00:23:09.760
when it comes to the actual Pokemon and the actual uh

00:23:07.400 --> 00:23:14.799
achievements and whatever else is part of the main game right but if you're

00:23:11.679 --> 00:23:17.520
going to go okay yeah if you want you

00:23:14.799 --> 00:23:19.760
know you have to buy five Happy Meals to get a

00:23:19.960 --> 00:23:25.960
Mewtwo then then it gets then it's pretty frustrating to me and then it's

00:23:24.039 --> 00:23:29.120
something that I'm not not necessarily a huge fan of someone says mix Squirtle

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

00:23:34.880 --> 00:23:40.480
like that brings up an interesting point though because I think they're only I

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

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

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

00:23:51.000 --> 00:23:57.400
hundreds now yep so maybe they're going

00:23:54.440 --> 00:24:03.760
like hey sport check if you want you know the legendaries from gen 3 to be

00:23:59.679 --> 00:24:06.279
sport check exclusives like pay us money

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

00:24:08.360 --> 00:24:14.960
that they can be smart about this as well um like for example timed

00:24:12.720 --> 00:24:21.679
exclusives are a lot more palatable to me than forever exclusives so if you are

00:24:18.520 --> 00:24:24.480
rolling out new Pokemon very slowly and

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

00:24:26.720 --> 00:24:33.120
those then the obsessives who absolutely

00:24:29.919 --> 00:24:36.000
have to have again like a like a gen 3

00:24:33.120 --> 00:24:40.320
legendary or something like that fine they can just go to McDonald's and buy a

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

00:24:42.320 --> 00:24:52.080
still get one in a legitimate manner then that's super cool I I I

00:24:48.120 --> 00:24:54.159
don't mind that at all y for sure and I

00:24:52.080 --> 00:24:58.240
like to be clear I don't think there has been any confirmation of like this

00:24:56.880 --> 00:25:02.320
Pokemon will be specific specific to this retail location or anything yet

00:25:01.000 --> 00:25:08.679
right but we're just saying that it would be concerning if that did happen

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

00:25:10.320 --> 00:25:17.880
of uh some kind of scary stuff in there like for example what if in Manhattan

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

00:25:20.039 --> 00:25:23.120
to get oh

00:25:24.760 --> 00:25:30.320
no that would be very troubling um

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

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

00:25:38.440 --> 00:25:45.440
offered users no way to chat with one another so he was like Hey I should

00:25:42.559 --> 00:25:48.200
probably create something around that um and he said that especially in a

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

00:25:51.600 --> 00:25:57.960
I'm at just caught eradicate it's dope

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

00:26:00.919 --> 00:26:08.080
Pokemon Go Chat is approaching 1 million users and hitting servers with 600

00:26:05.039 --> 00:26:10.240
requests per second that is unbelievable

00:26:08.080 --> 00:26:15.080
and apparently now it may drive him bankrupt because the server costs are

00:26:12.240 --> 00:26:19.399
getting like ridiculously high you know the guys I'll give him I'll give him

00:26:17.120 --> 00:26:23.720
credit for sticking to his principles here um so this is the original article

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

00:26:25.840 --> 00:26:32.399
he says he doesn't want to ad support it

00:26:29.159 --> 00:26:35.840
because he hates

00:26:32.399 --> 00:26:38.159
ads and doesn't want to draw attention

00:26:35.840 --> 00:26:42.600
from the Pokemon company and I'm like okay because you

00:26:40.559 --> 00:26:47.960
know what makes sense the definition of selling out is compromising your

00:26:45.039 --> 00:26:53.279
principles for money that's the definition so if you love ads and you

00:26:51.080 --> 00:26:57.960
think ads are great and you have no problem with ads personally and you kind

00:26:54.840 --> 00:27:00.080
of go okay well you know so there you go

00:26:57.960 --> 00:27:03.159
I consume ads therefore I will also serve ads and people can consume them

00:27:01.840 --> 00:27:08.320
and ads make the world go around and this is great then there's nothing wrong

00:27:05.919 --> 00:27:14.200
with having ads in your application or your content or whatever else the case

00:27:10.159 --> 00:27:17.120
may be but if you you hate ads you

00:27:14.200 --> 00:27:21.600
adamantly refuse to use products and services that are supported by ads and

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

00:27:23.600 --> 00:27:32.679
this then I got to give him credit for sticking with his principes

00:27:28.440 --> 00:27:35.919
and not implementing ads with

00:27:32.679 --> 00:27:37.799
that if you have a super successful app

00:27:35.919 --> 00:27:45.440
and you are providing a service that people are willing to either endure ads

00:27:40.240 --> 00:27:48.000
or pay for it is not very business smart

00:27:45.440 --> 00:27:54.840
to be spending your own money maintaining it when you have a community

00:27:51.320 --> 00:27:58.559
of literally a million people that wants

00:27:54.840 --> 00:28:00.240
to use it yeah and like the

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

00:28:02.399 --> 00:28:09.600
attention from the Pokemon company because like that would probably result

00:28:07.039 --> 00:28:14.080
him in a lot of trouble but like if you're doing responsible advertising

00:28:11.559 --> 00:28:19.679
that's not like taking over the screen or like playing music at a ridiculously

00:28:16.720 --> 00:28:23.600
high volume or like weird like Pokemon porn or something like that like if

00:28:21.519 --> 00:28:29.080
you're not infringing on Nintendo or netics um intellectual property in any

00:28:26.799 --> 00:28:33.279
way and even like have a disclaimer to be like hey Pokemon company if you see

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

00:28:35.600 --> 00:28:41.679
I'm making is going to ex charity or whatever and then they can still slam

00:28:39.480 --> 00:28:45.399
him with a cease and desist that can still happen and they can still shut

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

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

00:28:52.039 --> 00:29:02.240
mean yeah like good on him for seeing an issue and like doing something to

00:28:57.760 --> 00:29:04.360
correct it but holy crap man everyone's

00:29:02.240 --> 00:29:07.440
like stop the Pokemon stop the Pokemon there's nothing we can do to stop the

00:29:05.679 --> 00:29:11.320
Pokemon yeah dude I'm personally not playing it I'm doing everything that I

00:29:09.399 --> 00:29:16.960
possibly I'm I'm I'm not letting my kids play it and I'm not playing it I've done

00:29:13.360 --> 00:29:18.799
everything I can to stop

00:29:16.960 --> 00:29:23.039

I never get it wrong so our our second sponsor today is actually a new one it's

00:32:00.480 --> 00:32:07.760
called Ministry of supply and this is uh this is Colton's doing that we are

00:32:04.760 --> 00:32:09.200
wearing colored professional shirts on

00:32:07.760 --> 00:32:13.559
the W show today I'll just give a disclaimer this shirt is actually a size

00:32:11.600 --> 00:32:18.240
too small for me because it was uh ordered for Luke so it's not like the

00:32:16.279 --> 00:32:21.919
shirts fit poorly this is just a shirt that's too small for me yeah it feels

00:32:19.960 --> 00:32:27.120
nice we ordered it for we ordered it for Luke because Colton way to go Colton

00:32:24.880 --> 00:32:32.399
apparently didn't realize that Luke wasn't going to be here this week so uh

00:32:29.960 --> 00:32:40.200
Luke's actually on vacation which is like amazing I don't think that's ever

00:32:34.960 --> 00:32:43.080
happened I am I I okay yes it has but

00:32:40.200 --> 00:32:47.639
there's always kind of been uh a reason for it right like he's gone on vacation

00:32:45.360 --> 00:32:52.440
at the end of a business trip to a location so like we're he's in Germany

00:32:50.639 --> 00:32:56.799
anyway right yo I'm going to take a couple couple more days off I'll be back

00:32:54.440 --> 00:33:00.639
like a little bit later peace bro like that's happened yeah but he actually

00:32:59.279 --> 00:33:07.440
booked time and booked his own plane ticket

00:33:05.679 --> 00:33:11.000
yeah I think that's the first time like ever played for a plane ticket yeah

00:33:09.279 --> 00:33:16.279
anyway and he's visiting someone and coming okay you need to tell the people about Min right Ministry of Supply so

00:33:14.399 --> 00:33:19.600
Ministry of Supply combines performance Fabrics Advanced manufacturing

00:33:17.600 --> 00:33:23.559
techniques and tailored design to make where to work clothes that are

00:33:21.000 --> 00:33:28.960
comfortable and capable yes my friends your clothing can do this and more

00:33:29.159 --> 00:33:35.120
it's funny this these talking points are great way to go Colton clothes are meant

00:33:32.840 --> 00:33:38.399
to be worn on the body I'm glad we're clearing this up for you people so

00:33:36.679 --> 00:33:41.559
Ministry of Supply starts by studying ergonomics how the human body moves and

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

00:33:45.200 --> 00:33:51.279
over top of your nipple the products keep you cool and dry with sweat wicking

00:33:49.200 --> 00:33:54.639
fibers breathable fabrics and NASA developed phase change materials which

00:33:52.720 --> 00:33:59.320
help regulate your body temperature so basically you won't get too hot and

00:33:56.360 --> 00:34:03.080
sweaty um and you will still be clothed which is good I mean Dennis should

00:34:01.159 --> 00:34:07.639
probably look into this at some point or another for those of you who don't know

00:34:05.679 --> 00:34:13.639
Dennis like Dennis like can't keep a shirt on I'll walk into the he's like uh

00:34:10.480 --> 00:34:15.639
oh what's that actor that has this issue

00:34:13.639 --> 00:34:20.960
uh I forget who it is it's either like Matthew mccon or Ashton

00:34:18.800 --> 00:34:25.159
Kutcher I'm I'm just gonna google it because it's like 10 actors who can't

00:34:22.520 --> 00:34:25.159
keep their shirts

00:34:25.599 --> 00:34:34.599
on come on no freaking way the first one is Dennis I didn't even know that that

00:34:31.040 --> 00:34:37.119
counts Hugh Jackman okay so Hugh Jackman

00:34:34.599 --> 00:34:41.800
Mark wallberg okay Mark Wahlberg I also knew uh it's G to make me it's going to

00:34:40.320 --> 00:34:45.240
make me load a new page in order to keep reading the article so nope not going to

00:34:43.359 --> 00:34:48.879
do that but yes there you go so Dennis Dennis is one of those maybe Ministry

00:34:47.119 --> 00:34:54.440
Supply could get him taken care of everything's easy to care for no dry

00:34:50.919 --> 00:34:56.320
cleaning no iron oh yeah look at that

00:34:54.440 --> 00:35:00.920
this is right out of the box and it doesn't have that and you like threw it

00:34:58.240 --> 00:35:06.000
around and it's like super not lined and actually pretty wrinkle-free that's

00:35:03.040 --> 00:35:08.880
awesome I actually did not I I was I was actually G to yell at Colton about this

00:35:07.520 --> 00:35:13.920
too and then I just didn't have time because I was busy fixing the show I was

00:35:10.680 --> 00:35:16.119
going to be like yo you just brought me

00:35:13.920 --> 00:35:21.920
a button-up shirt right out of the box right out of the fold pre-folded package

00:35:19.000 --> 00:35:25.440

00:35:49.359 --> 00:35:54.119

00:36:07.000 --> 00:36:13.240
all featured and we'll have linked in the in the W show description on the

00:36:10.560 --> 00:36:18.720
Youtube upload check them out all right let's move into some

00:36:15.440 --> 00:36:21.640
non-pokemon topics here I'm sure that we

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

00:36:24.359 --> 00:36:31.880
jones.com and this is aett uh this is a pretty serious pretty

00:36:29.920 --> 00:36:38.160
serious sort of topic here the other original article is from the steam store

00:36:35.079 --> 00:36:39.839
so there's an in-game trading update

00:36:38.160 --> 00:36:44.920
from valve so they've acknowledged that there

00:36:42.040 --> 00:36:48.800
are a number of gambling sites uh that have started leveraging the Steam

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

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

00:36:54.079 --> 00:36:59.680
some false assumptions made about their involvement with the with those sites

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

00:37:03.359 --> 00:37:11.240
any revenue from them and steam does not have a system for turning in-game items

00:37:07.480 --> 00:37:13.319
into real world currency so okay

00:37:11.240 --> 00:37:18.440
technically all of those statements are correct they claim that the sites have

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

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

00:37:26.880 --> 00:37:34.920
further pursue the matter as necessary and what they also had to say um this is

00:37:32.359 --> 00:37:39.280
from the article is that users should probably consider this information as

00:37:37.079 --> 00:37:45.599
they manage their in-game inventory and their trade activity so basically dump

00:37:42.359 --> 00:37:47.920
your items now I tried to find the link

00:37:45.599 --> 00:37:52.359
for this I was looking at the Global Offensive Reddit yesterday and there

00:37:49.839 --> 00:37:57.359
were claims that some of these uh illicit gambling sites had actually

00:37:54.359 --> 00:37:59.760
disabled their trade Bots

00:37:57.359 --> 00:38:05.359
so like people had like thousands of dollars worth of

00:38:01.319 --> 00:38:08.240
inventory and they just couldn't get it

00:38:05.359 --> 00:38:11.599
now there's some speculation that the sites are just updating their terms of

00:38:09.920 --> 00:38:16.800
service and updating their use of the API to abide by valve's clarified rules

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

00:38:19.520 --> 00:38:26.760
seems to finally be taking a stand against unregulated gambling using their

00:38:23.200 --> 00:38:30.119
in-game items long overdue but I mean

00:38:26.760 --> 00:38:32.480
you can't it's like it's like if your

00:38:30.119 --> 00:38:37.880
kid's not doing their homework for a week and they're way behind and then

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

00:38:40.520 --> 00:38:46.680
want to be overly critical but this really is overdue um to be clear this is

00:38:45.000 --> 00:38:51.599
very much an emerging story so as new information becomes available some of it

00:38:48.599 --> 00:38:54.119
may become outdated and uh will require

00:38:51.599 --> 00:38:57.800
further updates as time goes on uh there's a group of trial attorneys

00:38:55.440 --> 00:39:02.920
that's taking on class action requests in the csgo gambling lawsuit or in a

00:39:00.720 --> 00:39:06.920
csgo gambling lawsuit so they're stated they're pursuing multiple class action

00:39:04.839 --> 00:39:09.760
lawsuits in the US against valve and various skins gambling websites

00:39:08.440 --> 00:39:14.520
connected to the game Counter-Strike Global Offensive working diligently to

00:39:12.280 --> 00:39:18.920
recover funds from us residents who have lost money on skins through these

00:39:15.960 --> 00:39:23.880
illegal gambling contracts call 1 1800 recover your skins for help

00:39:21.640 --> 00:39:28.079
now it really does feel like a late night lawyer infomercial it feels like

00:39:26.119 --> 00:39:33.160
those Billboards that are all over the place in like large American yeah

00:39:30.359 --> 00:39:37.079
exactly exactly actually haven't watched that show yet is it good I I saw the

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

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

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

00:39:50.119 --> 00:39:57.480
oh okay crap nope nope Noe that's not

00:39:54.359 --> 00:39:59.839
him no uh one other thing that isn't in

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

00:40:02.480 --> 00:40:11.119
that wrong I mean I guess they looks somewhat similar not really not that

00:40:06.760 --> 00:40:13.040
similar no not somewhat anyway The Fawns

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

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

00:40:19.400 --> 00:40:24.240
a week okay uh you know we carry on on

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

00:40:26.640 --> 00:40:31.680
uh that any you know in their terms of

00:40:29.680 --> 00:40:35.880
service it essentially says that if a streamer is streaming something that

00:40:33.040 --> 00:40:40.040
breaks the terms of service for of a third party then that is not allowed on

00:40:37.800 --> 00:40:43.200
Twitch so they've essentially come out and said you guys can't stream gambling

00:40:41.839 --> 00:40:47.160
sites anymore you guys can't take sponsorships from gambling sites anymore

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

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

00:40:54.440 --> 00:40:59.560
always just like gamble gamble gamble gamble gamble for like the top 10

00:40:57.560 --> 00:41:03.440
streamers and they said something like you can only gamble on stream for 30

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

00:41:06.000 --> 00:41:11.400
they were just waiting on valve to finally make a statement on it and now

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

00:41:12.680 --> 00:41:19.319
stop doing this so I mean I don't know I like like I

00:41:17.280 --> 00:41:23.200
said valve is technically correct in everything that they've said but I think

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

00:41:27.079 --> 00:41:32.119
that betting on csgo matches has

00:41:30.400 --> 00:41:38.400
increased viewership like I would personally say

00:41:35.560 --> 00:41:42.680
that I believe that happened um you could also say that losing while betting

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

00:41:43.960 --> 00:41:51.160
correlation or uh yeah but I don't know

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

00:41:53.680 --> 00:41:58.880
another kind of nasty subject but it turns out they got it sorted out the

00:41:57.240 --> 00:42:04.240
original article here is from Tom's Hardware NVIDIA GTX 1080 and 1070

00:42:02.560 --> 00:42:09.880
DisplayPort incompatible with the HTC Vive this is

00:42:07.680 --> 00:42:15.560
something I actually could have discovered on my own and been very very

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

00:42:19.200 --> 00:42:27.800
my living room because my computer room doesn't have enough room for hollow

00:42:23.800 --> 00:42:29.880
point anyway um so what this means

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

00:42:31.400 --> 00:42:37.200
plugged in via HDMI already like say for

00:42:34.400 --> 00:42:42.440
example a TV most of which do not have DisplayPort inputs if any um and you

00:42:40.520 --> 00:42:49.040
want to use DisplayPort into the mini DisplayPort in in the little uh the

00:42:45.359 --> 00:42:51.440
little input output box the 1070 and

00:42:49.040 --> 00:42:58.200
1080 just wouldn't work with it yeah not my 980 worked just fine but

00:42:55.960 --> 00:43:02.680
it was apparently a bug they have identified a solution and will'll be

00:43:00.520 --> 00:43:05.960
rolling it out in the next driver update which is this week the article is from

00:43:04.240 --> 00:43:11.119
the 11th uh they rolled out a driver update today so it probably wouldn't be

00:43:08.520 --> 00:43:14.800
a ridiculous assumption to say that that's probably it but I'm looking at

00:43:13.480 --> 00:43:20.440
this going like that is such a huge oversight I would imagine people having

00:43:17.119 --> 00:43:23.040
their display plugged in via HDMI and

00:43:20.440 --> 00:43:28.200
wanting to use DisplayPort for the Vive being a pretty common thing I mean I

00:43:26.520 --> 00:43:31.800
can't be the only one installing this somewhere I mean DisplayPort hasn't

00:43:29.960 --> 00:43:35.720
even been mainstream on monitors for longer than a couple of years I mean

00:43:34.400 --> 00:43:40.240
ASUS kind of addressed that with the stricks where they put two hdmis in yep

00:43:38.240 --> 00:43:43.960
so if you want to learn more about the stricks we have a video coming to

00:43:41.599 --> 00:43:47.119
YouTube next week uh yeah I think so just went to vessel last night see if

00:43:45.160 --> 00:43:53.720
you have vessel you can check that out um in other news PC shipments return to

00:43:51.520 --> 00:44:01.520
growth in the US wow glorious PC Master race am I

00:43:58.040 --> 00:44:04.280
right no no I'm not right unfortunately

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

00:44:06.119 --> 00:44:11.839
this quarter yeah uh they're still down

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

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

00:44:18.640 --> 00:44:26.599
and a half and 5.2% and even them we're talking like

00:44:23.119 --> 00:44:28.760
1.4% if you don't factor in Chromebooks

00:44:26.599 --> 00:44:32.160
yeah and we're talking 4.9% if you factor in Chromebooks we're talking

00:44:30.079 --> 00:44:37.839
literally like $100 computers so that's growth so that's that's unit count

00:44:34.599 --> 00:44:40.000
growth to be fair y uh I believe that

00:44:37.839 --> 00:44:45.160
these numbers only Factor like pre-built PC sales yep so that's been on the

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

00:44:47.240 --> 00:44:53.440
as hard as we once thought it was or as

00:44:50.800 --> 00:44:57.760
some people once thought it was right speaking of PC Building not be

00:44:55.720 --> 00:45:02.920
that hard hard Terry Cruz pretty much took over our PC Master race yesterday

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

00:45:05.079 --> 00:45:13.160
fan that dude's Awesome Brooklyn 99 is like one of my favorite shows right now

00:45:09.960 --> 00:45:14.800
um so I was pretty happy when I saw this

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

00:45:16.960 --> 00:45:26.000
with the Glorious Terry Cruz putting the PC masterace hair on him with his

00:45:21.720 --> 00:45:27.599
Majestic figure and uh so he was you

00:45:26.000 --> 00:45:32.319
know he created a Facebook uh video outlining the parts in his PC which now

00:45:29.160 --> 00:45:34.280
has over 1.2 million views pretty darn

00:45:32.319 --> 00:45:38.079
significant uh he was very humble throughout the whole process asking the

00:45:35.839 --> 00:45:41.160
community for advice and uh checking what the community thought of his Parts

00:45:39.240 --> 00:45:46.599
choices which overall were pretty positive he chose a core i7 6800k 2

00:45:44.000 --> 00:45:52.800
terab SSD 32 gigs of Dominator PL platinums from Corsair and a GTX 1080 so

00:45:49.720 --> 00:45:54.119
pretty badass rig and also he paid for

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

00:45:57.680 --> 00:46:02.240
NVIDIA or whoever and uh he says that

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

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

00:46:08.800 --> 00:46:15.079
actually was part of the battlefield 1 pre3 event with like Jamie Fox and Snoop

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

00:46:18.720 --> 00:46:25.119
in the booth of all the people there um

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

00:46:26.960 --> 00:46:32.920
say any more than that yeah and uh he essentially said he really enjoyed

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

00:46:35.079 --> 00:46:40.920
very clear that he's not going to be abandoning being this crazy like

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

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

00:46:46.640 --> 00:46:53.160
cool pretty sweet I mean if he gets into VR especially some of the more physical

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

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

00:46:58.640 --> 00:47:06.599
already been on some twitch ads so like twitch get it going get it popping this

00:47:04.920 --> 00:47:13.079
looks pretty cool original article here is from techradar.com

00:47:08.440 --> 00:47:16.359
I mean this has been the the emulators

00:47:13.079 --> 00:47:17.559
argument for so long look Nintendo if

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

00:47:20.520 --> 00:47:26.040
to legitimately acquire the games yep

00:47:24.000 --> 00:47:32.920
and they've addressed this somewhat through retro console games but it's

00:47:29.319 --> 00:47:35.960
it's not always that well done um this

00:47:32.920 --> 00:47:40.040
actually looks like a fantastic

00:47:35.960 --> 00:47:42.160
solution check this out the nest is back

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

00:47:44.559 --> 00:47:53.359
install in it or anything like that it's a much smaller size and it comes

00:47:49.160 --> 00:47:55.839
preloaded with 50 games 30 30 Games

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

00:47:58.240 --> 00:48:05.640
able to use it without buying yourself like uh what's that uh retro bit

00:48:03.760 --> 00:48:11.520
retrogen whatever that thing that Luke just bought that super expensive low

00:48:08.079 --> 00:48:12.880
latency analog to HDMI converter okay

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

00:48:16.240 --> 00:48:23.680
HDMI output is awesome because you don't need any specialized Hardware in order

00:48:20.440 --> 00:48:25.920
to avoid the horrible processing latency

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

00:48:29.800 --> 00:48:34.920
over the show now it's mine uh but the

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

00:48:38.599 --> 00:48:45.480
like essentially the price of a new Wii U game which is freaking

00:48:43.000 --> 00:48:48.480
fantastic uh and there are actually some awesome and really classic games that

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

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

00:48:56.480 --> 00:49:02.119
Mystic Quest was the first one so I've played Mystic Quest cuz it was called

00:49:00.280 --> 00:49:06.240
Final Fantasy Mystic Quest but it's not actually a Final Fantasy game oh it was

00:49:04.160 --> 00:49:10.119
like rebranded for North America or something it was one of those situations

00:49:07.760 --> 00:49:13.559
I don't remember the details interesting uh it'll also have the Legend of Zelda

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

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

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

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

00:49:30.040 --> 00:49:36.359
game you can get 30 classic Nest games

00:49:33.040 --> 00:49:39.240
in the little awesome HDMI Nintendo this

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

00:49:41.359 --> 00:49:47.079
necessarily think that you should have to buy a piece of hardware for

00:49:44.920 --> 00:49:50.880
this I mean if they have okay I personally like it what if they offered

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

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

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

00:50:02.839 --> 00:50:08.319
Wonder like I wonder why they're choosing to do it this way maybe it's

00:50:06.240 --> 00:50:12.440
just like hey have this cool knickknack as well as all these games and like I

00:50:10.880 --> 00:50:16.319
personally like having Hardware stuff like I when I used to buy more PC games

00:50:14.880 --> 00:50:20.079
I used to like to buy the physical copies yeah because I like actually

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

00:50:22.440 --> 00:50:27.319
500 games now or whatever I don't know I

00:50:25.799 --> 00:50:31.240
like having something physical I think it's really cool I like the design of

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

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

00:50:36.319 --> 00:50:43.920
controller which they unfortunately didn't update yeah even rounded edges

00:50:41.200 --> 00:50:47.559
guys come on please please they wanted to give us back the horrible experience

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

00:50:48.920 --> 00:50:56.680
my bad retrogen makes uh like emulator consoles indubitably something says

00:50:53.880 --> 00:51:04.920
confirmed for old I mean it's true yeah but that hurts man

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

00:51:07.920 --> 00:51:14.520
lot else here that we really have to uh have to get into so thank you guys very

00:51:12.480 --> 00:51:18.960
much for tuning into to the WAN Show we will see you again next week same bat

Time same bat Channel by which time I will probably have completely rebuilt

00:51:21.480 --> 00:51:27.599
and reformatted the stupid computer that's next to me that I hate so very

00:51:26.040 --> 00:51:31.760
much hit us up on Twitter if you want to see a build like streaming PC build
