okay so uh we'll start the show with the
traditional apology I'm sorry for being late yep
however this whoa we're really late yeah
this okay it's actually my fault this time I think it's mostly your fault I
could have been more prepared but I've been working on a video that I'm like
really really excited about and I kind of got carried away doing a last minute
processor swap so that I could like see
more numbers when I'm done the W show and be all excited about how wrong that
I was for my side of things people might be slightly excited people often
complain about multi-part content and wanting really long videos you're
getting one it took him like half an hour to
film one video I think it was an it was
was it really I started filming at
about okay so I think it was half hour for one video 15 minutes the other one
so but that half an hour video wasn't like six takes of a 5 minute video no
that was like probably about a 17 minute
18 minute video so all like deep dive
technical yep basically if you're upset
that we haven't really talked much about Vulcan and directx12 Luke took it upon
himself to make up for L Time by spending a lot of time working
on one ginor thing that will hopefully cover us for like at least a while yes
oh jeez um so the one that I'm working
on is actually um about the most wrong
that I have been about how to configure
a computer in probably a decade like
we're talking I spent you know three
times as much on a component that performs 60% as well as something else
that I could have bought wow like I I done goofed I done
goofed and and you guys are going to you guys are going to find this super
hilarious I'm sure people love that stuff yeah yeah you guys are going to
find this like super hilarious for sure because the machine or machines in
question were actually the subject of multi-part videos previously on the
channel and are a key component of our
editing workflow here at lonus Media Group are you gonna have a multi-part
video explaining why your previous multi-part video was bad no I think I'm
just gonna I think I'm just Teran says yes no taran's wrong I think it's just
going to be the one video and I'm gonna I'm G to
quantify everything that's wrong um
count in chat go whatever Doritos go Doritos is
Illuminati I don't even I I think that
there's a cultural Gap
between me and twitch chat okay not to like anyways uh my twitch
chat after the W show yeah is drastically different than the W show
twitch chat so it has far less cancer or more cancer far less far less it's like
slow it's a slow chat cuz like a fraction of the people are there but
then like they're like talking about computer topics and like everyone's on
point like when I screw up in the game there will be some guy that's like ha
then other people be like you go it next time and like it's completely like
everyone's really nice like you know you're jinxing it right now though right
like like you you know what's going to happen in your after part are you doing
an Afterparty stream tonight yeah but they'll forget by then so the internet
never forgets it's like an elephant okay Ser
of elephant Tes it depends the internet both forgets extremely quickly and never
forgets he's like oh yeah guys this game sucked let's never pre-order another
game whoa this new game looks really cool
let's new Call of Duty is it with old
guns this time hey no one's told us anything really about no man's Sky let's
all pre-order
what um all right so we got a lot of great topics for you guys today I feel
like I feel like okay okay I feel like
two things one I feel like the WAN Show is going to
have as its first primary topic from now
until early 2017 when it launches some kind of news about AMD
Zen and number two is I'm feeling the
battered wife syndrome a little bit right now because this is how AMD
behaved every other time they launched something that was
unexceptional the hype train for Zen is
so strong between the leaks and the
leaks like the actual leaks and the ones where amds just
like you want to see you want to see one
Benchmark want I just see one Benchmark you know between between we almost just
got banned off twitch I didn't I didn't show the nip I didn't show the nip I
just I I was teasing the nip I wasn't showing the ni actually even like covered it so that he couldn't screw up
and stuff I could not get kicked off of twitch for that unless twitch altered
their rules to be like don't be weird on Twitch but they would ban everyone
everybody be gone everyone's gone everyone in the chat you're gone the
entire creative section just like implodes immediately half the staff gone
yeah yeah um so we've got some more news
about Zen uh We've also got what's
inside Microsoft's Hollow lens and how it works no this is not a video where uh
you know My Buddy Cuts open the hollow
lens I actually met the what's inside I tell you I was just going to say you I
think Buddy is a strong word but I met him met him once I haven't met son
though he you can now say that you are deep friends deep friend yes I can now
say that I know an internet celebrity
yeah what else we got for T I do too I've met Day N
before dagger right right through my
heart that was actually a really cool moment anyways uh we also have PCI
Express 4.0 uh which brings 16 or well
okay the main part that I like is 300 watts at the slot or not like the main
interesting part I don't know that I like that doing my I'm doing my PCI
Express 4.0 excitement dance you like the 300 watts
thing okay he just wants to dance I think at this point
also MIT discovers a cleaner more efficient smelting process which is
actually really cool I don't know if that's like super directly related to
what we normally talk about intro
apparently the 300
wat5 I fix
it cooler M for full info about what
what is this what does this even mean I guess you'll have to stay tuned to find
out if you want to know about the company like who the CEO is What their
like the mission statement is and stuff go to coolermaster tocom and click the
hopefully exists aotos button if they were smarter they would have just named
the company after the CEO and then you wouldn't even have to go to the website
to know the CEO's name you would just have to know what the website is or the
YouTube channel or the Twitter handle but your last name or the Facebook page
so what if it's tals or what if it's
media your last you should legally change your last name to lonus
Media change your middle name to tech lonus tech Media Group
Sebastian ho there you go add them all in there
all right um what are we talking about I
don't even I don't even know I feel like this week has just been crazy like I
filmed six videos this week um we're
trying to we're trying to build up a buffer for when as some of you know I'm
having another small human join my family very very shortly you're insane
you didn't know that I knew that you're just insane I was like how did you not
know that you know that's why we're busting our butts right now right so
I'll be taking hopefully a few weeks off when that happens uh close to the end of
September um and the idea is that by
that time Luke and I will have built up enough of a Content buffer that they can
get by without me just fine without missing any of our daily uploads and
without Luke uh being at the office literally 16 hours a day like I'm pretty
sure was the case last time I tried to go anywhere or do anything
yeah I just pulled double shifts and then I was two people that
was I mean okay that was also a particular ularly horrible situation
because that was right so aside from trying to create a buffer for me to be
gone we were creating the buffer to launch Vel and during that while you
were gone we launched vessel and I had to do
like yeah tons of stuff for that yeah let's just say not everyone was happy
about the vessel lunch and someone had to do damage control and my internet I
we could go back and find the tweets of my internet it wasn't just me to be
clear just like Nick light was huge during that if anyone was on the
fors what you're going to go after his weight when you're trying to be nice to
him no if he was wow he was servicing questions
wonder if he's watching the show oh God he's been taking shots at me
for being old okay okay which is
something I have less control over you know you didn't even call out that it
was like your birthday really last no not really yeah you had the cake
there but you didn't talk about it oh yeah I had cake I forgot to eat it and
it was like out in the hot Warehouse the whole time we were on W I was just like
nope this is awful well it had that stuff so probably
awful anyways what's that stuff fond fondant yeah fondant should be banned
fondant should be not allow it shouldn't be called food yeah because it's awful I
mean with that said plasticine material two two of the most memorable cakes I've
ever had made out of fun we made out of fondant there was the noct to a fan from
the uh from The Forum guys and then there was the TV cake fan is the TV cake
yeah it had a TV on top I don't know if you looked that closely it was from LG
you know those guys they're just like they're crazy they can make a a Linus
from something they seem to just do it yeah socks yeah like a box of I actually
still have all those socks I I I part of me wants to wear well they're it's funny
because they're like thin they're like dress socks but they're hideous oh so I'm kind
of sitting here
going what are you where did they find
you what are you for yeah what what do you do I pass butter oh you pass butter
that's a don't it the conversation actually goes the other way it's like
what do I do says you pass butter he's like oh God it's from Rick and Morty
okay don't worry about it okay cool all right so our original article here is
from extreme Tech it's like Tech but extreme extreme
change it to like lonus extreme Tech tips Linus Tech tips EXT extreme Tech
tip media extreme Linus Sebastian it's
more Linus than you can
handle um all right so basically in a
nutshell uh AMD unveiled some information at hot
chips um about the upcoming Zen CPU core
and architecture uh Zen's design goals
are to intelligently share resources between CPU cores while simultaneously
hitting higher frequencies and higher execution efficiencies than AMD's
previous CPU core K10 which is good because if they had been hoping to hit
lower frequencies while not sharing
resources between cores and being less efficient then that would be a terrible
goal I'm glad AMD is clarifying these things you a lot of this stuff is that way I mean I was wondering I have to
confess I was wondering like when we went from uh what was that Flagship six
core that they actually they uh they replaced with the FX whatever you can
stand can't remember what you don't have to not be in the camera it's fine shoot
what was it when they introduced a new architecture that was actually clock for
clock worse than the previous one I can't can't remember anymore it was 10
1090 I try to not remember oh yeah 1090t
had better IPC than the fx8 core that
followed it and I was just kind of like what how did you pull that off um
there's there's other like relatively like okay I hope that would happen
considering you haven't released a processor in this long like faster L2
cache faster L3 cache larger everything
yeah two threads per core which we already knew yep so it'll have not
hyperthreading yeah it yes um what else we got branch
mispredict has been improved simultaneous multi-threading just in case you didn't uh larger retire like
the brand ambiguous term qu issue floting Point Unit better C system lower
power aggressive clock gating with multi-level
regions um a lot of this is like stuff
that too vague is my criticism cuz like
obviously these things are going to be better I would really hope they would be
considering saying that they're going to compete with modern Intel processors so
they would need to be better than what you had before so there's a bunch of
like slides and stuff if you want to see them so why don't you
slide sorry sorry I'll stop singing that now
um so there you go uh Zen will be really good we promise this time yay all right
next up this was originally posted on the Forum by op it's me is that their
name or is Colton trying to say would be original poster it's me is probably the
person who posted is the name all right so the original article here is from
Tom's Hardware uh uh uh mic cracking
popping stuff um fix the mic audio is cracking
there's like enough people spamming it that it might actually be true or maybe
not um are we just leaning too close to it
maybe
okay cuz I can like sort of hear it
somewhat in my ears okay um is it still
popping if I'm back here nope I don't think so is it popping if I'm here not
right now oh
okay
wo I mean I didn't change anything but that doesn't mean it's completely
impossible that someone came onto the set and moved around just because they
hate me personally I mean there's enough people working here now that it is
possible that even if only half of them hated me
there's enough people that you know someone might that's sad I don't think
any I don't think anyone who works here hates me Brandon you know yeah right I'm
not Brandon can hate yeah goodbye unless it's like a really shitty SD
card yeah Brandon is not not a huge fan
of uh bad SD card s yeah all right let's
talk what's inside oops oh I don't know
what I had on my screen that whole time well hopefully nothing incriminating
what's inside Microsoft's Hollow lens and how it
works kind of kind of so there's an OLED
screen which is not super surprising uh
the components of the opic opical I've done way too many videos in the last
little bit the components of the optical system break down into micro display
Imaging Optics wave guide combiner cool
and gradings that perform uh exit pup
expansion there the like the the compute
inside of it contains a custom main board so we're not really going to know
what is up with that 64 gigs of emmc uh
2 gigs of lpddr3 RAM it's based on x86 and runs so
surprisingly Windows 10 um it has a
cherry Trail s so Wi-Fi Bluetooth connectivity and four microphones I'm
not entirely sure why there's four microphones so with a VR head mounted
display you've effectively got two tiny monitors that are millimeters from your
face uh by contrast the hollow lens
spits out a projected image which is then combined defract and layered to
produce images that you can see within a space yeah you have to do that type of
projection stuff at least right now
in order to um create the Hologram like
effect so right now the Hologram like effect can be created several meters
away which is probably why they do all of these demos like in a house yeah
you're not going to be you're not going to be projecting Holograms you're not
going to see Charizard on a mountain yeah yeah s what on a mountain Charizard
Charizard okay like the the Pokémon Go trailers thought you said Jo of Arc and
I was like I don't well so I had my headphones in cuz I was
going to see John far on Mountain it's like it's like usually when I have a wet
dream that's not how it goes I don't
think Jon of Arc was a sex symbol no no not I mean it's possible you know Clone
High okay yeah like if you're really into Tunes or whatever yeah um sorry
what are we talking about apparently Clone High okay sensors
so there's there's a sensor bar you guys wait okay can we straw pull for a quick
second do they know what Clone High is I I don't know I sure I'll drop a straw
pull actually you can do them now because we can screen share you but it's
okay I'm already doing it okay clone
pie yes no turn
it okay here we go let's see what we got
here I just cuz like I really I wonder now okay guys hit that straw pull hit
that straw pull I've been wondering lately like how out of date some of of
our references might be I know I know I
I I am out of date any reference to me feels inherently out majority says no
wow there are more Trump voters in our audience today than you said Trump I
said include turnup no that definitely peaked a
little by the way yeah okay so we have more Trump voters and I I thought we
didn't have any Trump voters left I thought they all hated me either for being Canadian or for
building a computer Trum Trump themed PC I am sort of surprised that didn't
like get trending somewhere for
political reason I am I'm a little surprised myself that video just largely
seemed to have been disliked by everyone Trump supporters and non-trump
supporters alike just like go back to Canadian
politics talk about Justin Trudeau like he boxes and not that many
things interesting happen in Canada well there was elbow gate which is you
know I love El God I think I think I
just got
triggered all right back to hollow lens so there's a sensor bar on the hollow
lens that's comprised of four environment understanding cameras two on
each side so there's a depth camera an
ambient light sensor and a 2 megapixel
photo slhd video camera some of these are off-the-shelf Parts while Microsoft
buils the others so when you first said environment understanding cameras like I
get it but I wasn't shifted back into talking about the hollow lens yet so I
thought it was like they're not environmentally friendly but they get
that they're not environmentally friendly and it's okay are you getting
figured some more like is this
just oh dear no no that's fine um so the
environment sensing cameras provide the basis for head tracking because if
you're going to project images out there they have to rotate and they have to
change in size uh according to how you
move your head around so that's why you need these cameras uh there's a time of
flight so the time oflight depth cameras serve two roles they help with hand
tracking and they perform surface reconstruction these sensors work with
the Optics module and the IMU so that's pretty cool I guess um the
word on the street is cuz all of this is just like for us because we don't have a
unit uh for us this is just kind of like like cool that sounds like a lot of cool
technology um but the word on the street is Luke might get a chance to try it
maybe maybe which I'm really interested in because it's another computer on your
head thing right which is your an
excessively expensive one right so maybe they'll do it right and it's also not
trying cuz well the head mounted computer it's not trying to do full VR
yeah and the head mounted computer too is not about it not being expensive
you could build the most expensive headmount computer and it wouldn't overc
any of the problems you or I have with it the weight the heat the size it it
might help those things but not overcome them yeah wouldn't overcome them for
sure whereas this isn't trying to be
that the projections that it puts in front of you don't need to be rendered
on Dual GTX Titan XPS in order for them to look good and you don't have to
render an entire field of vision scene
you just have to render parts of it and stuff like it should this does make more
sense but it also since the very beginning I don't know about you but to
me has felt like this weird snake oil combination where it has like existed
and not really existed and like they they did this one like they they showed
it off and then they didn't really talk about it for a long time and then they're like and then they don't talk
about it for a long time and it's just like what what is this thing yeah I
guess it feels kind of like um it feels kind of like you know one of those games
that's in development forever where they kind of like they show off like a
working demo at some point really early on yeah and then it's like where did it
go and then a year later it's a completely different game it's like yeah
it's not an RTS anymore it's like a it's a first person shooter now do you
remember the presence demo I don't know if I showed it to you the hollow lens
presentence demo they did they did this thing where they they were in two very
different rooms but they put furniture and stuff in the same location yeah I
did see I did see the presents demo S I thought you were talking about a game demo I thought you oh that makes sense
did you see the presents demo yeah I know I got you no um but basically what
they did Starcraft ghost they made it so that because the furniture was in the
same positions and a lot of it was like dense Furniture so it went squished when
people sat in it um but people could sit around in this room and as long as they
didn't sit on each other cuz that would be possible um or even if they did I
mean hey the future is uh future is exciting future is accepting um so like
you could sit in a room and have like what they were displaying was like a
family gathering like with your with
people all over the world and like that's super holy crap really cool but
what they showed it off in was like this incredibly expensive cameras all over
the place custom room and you had to have the exact same version of it in
multiple places around the world and like this insanely expensive headset and
all this kind of stuff and then it was like one little demo that like Engineers
did in a back room and then it's just gone I'm just like what like what so
cool where did it go I don't oh I don't know so I would I would love to see your
thoughts or see hear your thoughts on it um I could yeah they could be both we do
make videos that is sort of a thing that we do yeah I really hope I get to check
it out cuz I'm rather excited all right speaking of things that I am excited
about the p is it's me I'll show the
link and the original article is from
Tom's Hardware PCI Express
4.0 because I was really feeling like PCI Express 3.0 were you was just not
Web 2.0 enough were you from a consumer standpoint actually
no yeah no I'm not feeling like that at all I feel like if anything this is
going to be complet complely meaningless
for the general consumer um we're already at the point
where unless you're running more than
two graphics cards in SLI or Crossfire
There is almost nothing you could put in your computer that would give you any
reason to need more than the PCI Express
bandwidth that's already available on Intel's mainstream platform let alone on
the Enthusiast LGA 20113 x99 platform so that's 20 PCIe Slots of
which four are handled through uh DMI I
think it's called whatever the replacement for the South Bridge is that
the system whatever anyway um words fail
me doesn't happen often um but but for
like Enterprise customers where basically they they they can't have
enough highspeed connectivity to the CPU
this I guess will be very cool uh I guess it'll also enable faster
ssds um so NVMe PCI Express ssds because
even with maybe maybe it doesn't matter
that you can have a PCIe Gen 4 16x slot
maybe it's more important that your 2x slot on your laptop can do like you
double the bandwidth to an ndme SSD that it used to be able to do maybe we'll see
an impact there although quite frankly it's been a long time since I've really
felt like a faster SSD makes a huge difference to the day-to-day use of my
computer I think you were running an ocz octane until like 6 months ago yep which
was like a SATA 2 SSD and now I literally don't even know the name of my
SSD and it's fine um like I was talking to uh Anthony from NC the other day he's
trying to upgrade his x79 system to x99 um because he wants to run NVMe and
I was just
like sure it is faster yeah and if you put them beside each other you can tell
you can tell but it's not like the it's
not like the moment that I had like like
like moment that I had when I first installed a dual core processor in my
machine or the first time you ever installed an SSD or the first time I
installed an SSD those were like wow
this is a new generation of comp um when
I put that Athlon 64 X2 4400 plus still
the most expensive single component I have spent my own money on I paid like
$800 plus dollars for a CPU but it was relatively speaking worth
it sort of um because it was very different than any other experience you
could have I just don't feel that way about NVMe ssds yeah um anyway I guess
we could tell you there is like the the like glass kind of wow this is beautiful
combination of getting a ridiculously good monitor that's like the say the
165hz ASUS yep remember the first time you tried that and you're like whoo y
you combine that and like an NVMe drive and like that kind of tier high-end
system you can feel it and it's nice yeah because everything is just but it's
not the same yeah it's not quite like that and you know what actually I would
say that a high refresh rate ultrawide
monitor was probably a similar experience for me I know you don't
necessarily buy into the ultra wide but for productivity right I really
like my ultra wide for work here right I don't know if I'd want one at home if I
did want one at home it would go over and tilt down above other monitors and I
would put like chats up there and web brows and stuff because I like doing product activity stuff on them not a
huge fan of gaming on Ultra wides watching YouTube videos on Ultra wides
is sweet there's mov stuff would be sweet um LG has a 38 in Ultra wide
coming that is uh 1,600 vertical by
whatever that works out to horizontally I'm actually going to be doing a review
of it soon it looks pretty beastly I
don't know if it's going to make I don't know what 38 Ines is going to kind of
feel like right in front of my face you know that's a lot of inches in my face
yeah um but we'll see maybe I can handle it so we haven't actually said anything
about PCI Express 4.0 so it's 16 Gat
transfers per second uh the through the slot power is still 75 Watts same as
always um the final specification should come by the end of
2016 they are days away from releasing version7 of the specification to the 730
paying members that provide input and a board of directors to help the process
and it will double the bandwidth per Lane compared to what we've seen before
so here's a screenshot showing once it
loads um the bandwidth of the previous
PCI Express Generations I think poor
poor oh yeah there it goes poor server it's just struggling a little bit
there so there you go it didn't quite double
from so so gen one to two doubled gen two to gen 3 didn't quite double but we
are actually getting it looks like straight up doubling again this time so
what that means is you could do 31.5 gigabytes per second through a PCI
e6x slot um which is which is great
maybe we'll maybe we can do away with the external s bridge now maybe in did
be cool maybe we could I mean they could even they could even they could even do
something at that point where if you had
two maybe if you had two 16x slots they could allow it or something the gpus
could use the first eight lanes and the and the SLI communication could be on
the other eight Lanes like I don't know maybe I'm just totally being ignorant
here some of the reason why they don't like it as interference and cross talk
if Colton if Colton did this screenshot then he gets to be yelled at
because he left his cursor on one of the data points for the new spec that's okay
we love you um so there you have it though with a single 1X or 2x slot you
could do 2 gabt or 4 gabt per second of
bandwidth to something like an NVMe SSD which is which is I guess good you know
um here we go so they've also got some suggestions as to sort of why they think
this matters so use cases chipto chip connection you can reduce power in real
estate with extendable design features and power management capabilities uh m.2
scalable performance for power constrained mobile platforms u.2 so this
would be the um that's that like server connector where you can connect SSD
storage in like a more like a rack mount case um and then use cables to get get
off the motherboard with it and PCI Express cards so high bandwidth
functionality for Internet of Things appliances like HD video streaming apps
high frequency sensor data and automation controls so nowhere in there
does it say graphics cards will suddenly be faster because PCI Express 4.0 but
that's not going to stop them from cramming it down our throats as a selling
feature now we should probably skip this topic I've read over it and and then we
should go to Android 7.0 all right let's talk nougat so this was posted by Trix
Sanity on the Forum the original article here is from unon Tech I don't think
I've ever read anything by Matt humr on a n Tech before but Android nougat is
here so there's like some I actually filmed a uh a Techquickie fastest
possible you know these ones always get me they're like you won't believe these
animals are real yeah yeah half the time they're not real by the way yeah don't
get drawn into it they're real drawings they're real photoshops
yeah anyways it's started rolling out as of August 22nd so like four days ago or
something uh it will begin rolling out on Nexus devices in the next few weeks
including Nexus 5x 6p 69 player pixel c
tablet General Mobile 4G H yeah anyways uh the Nexus 5 and 7
2013 are not eligible for this update
LG v20 will be the first new device that will ship with nougat
pre-installed cool yeah Samsung's
president of mobile stated that an update should come to the Note 7 in perhaps the next two to three months how
long ago did you film your thing uh the Note 7 uh no this video today Tech quick
today yeah so coming soon yeah coming soon to a Techquickie near you yeah um
but some of the new get features that we're highlighting here are split screen
mode this is something that has already existed on some vendors custom versions of
Android just um so Samsung has had this for quite some time although and this is
something that I did bring up in my Note 7 review it doesn't work across the
board like here's a a key application that Samsung split screen doesn't work
with Google Sheets oh no way like I can
yeah so I mean that was that was kind of the first time when I was working on my
review when I went gee I really need to use split screen right now because I was
filling out a props sheet um and doing internet research on like funny camping
things and I was copying pasting links and I was like oh yeah cool that oh wait
no so the app support is quite limited if it is natively supported in Android I
would hope that app support would be quite a bit broader um double tapping
the uh the most recently used apps button now switches between your last
app and the current one um which is really nice cuz that and this kind of
ties into to another comment from my Note 7 review which I think went up on
vessel last night um where I was talking
about the stylus on the note this is not a note 7 just to be clear this is the
Moto Z Force Droid thing um but anyway
the the stylus has a feature called glance where there's a little a little
minimized icon in the bottom corner that you can hover over to quickly look
between two apps and I was like that sounds pretty cool right except that
it's faster to just use your multitask button and switch between them because
of the delay when you hover but if it was a shorter delay then it just
wouldn't work very well because every time you accidentally move the P anyway
um so so this makes that even less
relevant now because now you can just double tap that button and it'll go
right to the last app you're using so when you're quickly switching between things to refer back to them this could
be very useful I'm super excited about that um there's now the ability to
bundle notifications together and this isn't in our notes but it was in John
script so I'm going to assume that it's correct um also the ability to expand
your notifications and address them individually oh thank goodness cuz Okay
this is something that's been pissing me off with Twitter for so long you'll get
like this person followed you and then
someone that you're following like retweeted something of yours I'm like I
want to click on that person's profile to figure out who they are that just
followed me because if you ever get a notification that someone followed you they're probably someone important or
something or it's one of those people that just like 90 5 million followers
and 95 million people that they followed and it's like oh okay sure um anyways
and you can't because you click on it and the app just gets confused and then
it dumps you somewhere with that said I have very little faith that this is any
of this is going to improve Twitter because there's plenty of stuff
that is perfectly not broken on Android but is still very broken on Twitter you
know they uh released that like anyone
can apply for official status thing did you apply yep no they didn't they denied
John they didn't deny deny me they just refused to respond uh respond oh I've
done it like three or four times they're just I tried to apply and um the form
just didn't work in multiple browsers on multiple occasions I filled out the
whole form and that's what happened the first couple times I tried to up you
have to upload a thing I think yeah so I kept trying to upload and the uploader
just wouldn't work so I was just like okay it's really not that important to
me so yeah fine fine my only thing is
there's like and you're going to get this with your new account too there's a
lot of imposter accounts there was some guy who was not retweeting manually
tweeting all of the same tweets that I had really and then filtering in like
super ultra aggressive religious messages in between them and like he had
the exact same uh photo as me exact same cover photo all the same pictures that I
would post up he would post um like everything I mean that takes a
significant amount of dedication a lot of it was a lot of work and then yeah
religious messages filtered in between what a weird thing to work on I know I
mean everybody needs a hobby and I get that and you know they verified that I
was real and banned him really
fast and but they don't want to give you contined to not respond about being
official and I'm like if this is a problem you should probably just give me
an official tag so this is easier cuz once you're official if you report
someone as a or whatever you don't have to go through as big of a process oh
really I didn't know that yeah it's more refined interesting okay cuz they like
know that you're actually the right one cuz I had to go through this thing like
verifying that I was the one that wasn't the impostor right
anyways apparently the audio crackle is back I wonder if like the microphone is
overheating or something it's really hot honestly it wouldn't even surprise me
it's like 33 degrees out there or something like that and like the
warehouse with the lights and the you know
stardom neither of us have official tags
the stardom
the well all right so the original article
here uh was posted by Patrick 3027 on the Forum and it's from ifixit.org
could it be bendgate all over again no
because the design defect actually has nothing to do with bending but you can
see this gray flickering bar across the top of this iPhone is a classic symptom
of a problem that repair Pros are seeing more and more in iPhone 6 and iPhone 6
Plus devices um and it basically causes the
touchcreen to be unresponsive and the weird thing about
this is that it has taken until now for
lots of repair shops to experience this
influx of faulty iPhones with exactly the same problem now replacing the
touchcreen actually doesn't fix it the
gray bar eventually shows back up on the new screen as well it's actually the two
touchscreen controller chips or the touch IC chips on the board inside the
phone that are causing the issue Apple
hasn't addressed the issue and their in-house teams cannot fix it so third
party micro micro soldering Specialists uh it's funny this our notes this is
yeah our notes say mostly unauthorized
to do Apple repairs because Apple doesn't authorize third parties even in
cases where there literally isn't an Apple store within driving distance like
you would have to get on a plane to go to an Apple Store um so unauthorized
Apple repair people have been helping to fix people's phones but right now uh it
looks like that's about all that you've
got going for yourself The Good the good news is that Apple will have to respond
to this because literally every single iPhone 6 or 6 Plus is within its
warranty period right now unless you've done something to physically damage it
outside of this going wrong with it um so let's let's hope that they do
something though I don't know what that
would
be all right this next topic is pretty
fun this is posted by numlock 21 on the Forum the original article here is from
polygon South Park the fractured but holes fart smelling
peripheral is a
thing there you have it this is the nostril Rift which is of course a play
on Oculus and nostril and
um that's that's about it I I don't even
know what else to say other than someone tried it and apparently it's very pungent yeah the sole purpose of this
peripheral is to deliver a potent fart smell during specific in-game
moments and I think the jokes pretty
much write themselves here but the developer of this peripheral is
Ubisoft so the obvious one is we tried the nosulus rift ubisoft's
latest release we couldn't tell the difference between
it and any of their other
releases oh which isn't fair because they haven't been that bad lately but
who has the guts to make a gaming device
that just smells bad that just smells
like ass gas um so farting is a key component in
South Park the fractured but whole and
uh I mean it's a command that you can use anytime with a button press and then
after you fart in game the nostrils floods with a smell that only gets
stronger as you progress it comes from oils within the device that's really
gross um and here is a picture of what
it looks like when you wear it I not sure if I am excited about the
new South Park game I really enjoyed stick of truth I did too a lot it was
really good um um but they I mean like
so many brands that work through third
party game developers they made a game that was
good and my understanding is there were some difficulties throughout the development process I get that but like
they made a game it was successful and then they completely changed the
developer and are making a oh no very different game yeah it's not the same de
it's not Ubie um I don't no no the like
the actual game Studio making it yeah
oh that's still a nightmare yeah so it's
one of those things where it's like you have changed literally everything about it
so yeah don't pre-order things anyways but especially don't pre-order this yeah
I really do want to play it though if it gets good reviews I'll get it I'll play it uh all right next article this was
originally posted by Good Bites that guy can post pretty much anything about
Microsoft on the Forum and I won't be surprised
all this raised some controversy is an
Xbox on Z is he being paid off to sell onesies
yeah I don't think so I don't know what he might be this they're only being sold
on Australia what if Microsoft is trying to take over the Australian onesie
Market it comes in both black and white uh the features are highlighted in
Microsoft's press release it actually looks kind of comfy enlarged Pockets to
fit your Xbox controller and media remotes it has an ARM pouch to offer
quick and easy access to your mobile phone it has rollable legs and arms to
cater to all temperatures and Seasons it has forearm grips to prevent slipping on
those Edge ofyou seat
moments it has an extra large Hood to accommodate headsets for the ultimate
gaming session and customized gamer tag
embroidery um should I go get our NVIDIA
one on yeah okay I will be I will be right
back I will return in the meantime if you want to talk about uh manbang or
something else manbang what the crap okay we are going to talk about
this don't forget you can screen share you just have to click your thing right
give me one second guys hold up post it
in there now it's in the chat you guys can investigate manbang with me I have
never heard of this manbang thing I'm using the wrong Mouse
where's my screen there we go nice all
right so outside of the Nissan thing North Korea's manbang is a state
approved streaming service why did they call it manbang could one of them have
looked into this so one of my first questions that's
going to arise here is like as far as I've heard almost no one in North Korea
has the like North Korean version of the
internet so I'm not sure how this is going to work um it says you can't watch
Netflix in North Korea thanks n Gadget um but the Democratic People's
Republic now has something at least manbang a state approved set box that
streams live to me TV or on demand video
okay so really the only interesting thing about this article is the name
manbang there's a
video I have no idea how loud this is so I'm just going to mute it
I'm also going to mute
this there you go
okay so here come the shill comments see it's very subtle actually
just little NVIDIA logo oh I guess I could switch to this and then that might
make more sense see little NVIDIA logo on the ARM there it's uh I actually
don't know exactly how the Snuggie is supposed to work like is it supposed to
kind of be like a ninja thing or like oh wow but it has uh has pockets in
the front the uni pouch yeah it's hard to tell to kind of do that see well you
can tell that my hands disappear see like gone boom see Hands no hands it's
like a anti-aliasing oh nice something
there you go yeah yeah cuz that makes sense this is freaking warm okay check
this out real quick I want to show you this really cool video effect that they use in the manbang video check watch
watch this
whoa holy crap now that's a transition I
think we need to start talking to Taran and Ed about rolling on the channel I
think we should start using that for every transition imagine imagine every
single time we went from like product to host it was like
whoa boom here's your host wonderful you
have to like warp through space and time and then there's like this crazy fuzzy
effect yeah why is they why do they I
mean we've seen that before when there's condensation uh in front of the inside
the waterproof housing for a GoPro yeah we've seen that like that weird blurry
effect around the outside of the frame but
uh oh no original article here is from
RS Technica McDonald's recalls Happy Meal fitness trackers
after they injure children so they recalled millions of wristband toys amid
reports of blistering now this is a case
of um okay I have this conversation with my
wife all the time English is not her first language although she speaks it
mostly natively but there are certain things that she's picked up particularly
from her parents where um it doesn't
seem she doesn't really seem to understand the
importance of the different meanings that words
have like injure like okay yeah but I'll
give some other examples first so she'll tell me go up in the house I left my
keys on the table I will go to the house
and I will look on every single table in the house and they will not be there I
will then run back down the stairs and I'll will say they're not there where
are they and she'll say they're on the table I'll say come show me it turns out
they are on the counter which is not a table okay another perfect
example the cat scratched the kid and
now she has a scar and I go what it
turns out she means scratch which is not the same as scar scar is permanent
scratch is is a mark it goes away so in
much the same way that that a table is
not a counter or vice versa an injury is
not a blister and vice versa and and the
difference between after like hurting kids hurting kids has a very broad
definition anything could be hurting kids that could be all the way from the
Sun yeah yes but injuring children
implies that they like can't um the the
dietary properties of McDonald's food could be hurting kids
yeah uh anyway so so the devices were
found to burn and irritate kids skin so far there have been 70 reports of
injuries from the colorful gadgets um
so apparently you can return it to the
restaurant in exchange for another toy a tube of yogurt or apple slices cool so
at least there's
that apparently there's a US senator suggesting that swapping College
instructors for videos could be a good idea directly calling out uh the higher
education system as a cartel and suggesting that uh colleges could cut
the number of instructors and increase the use of online
videos um I guess this is this is trying
to to lay the groundwork for some of the
discussion that mostly seems to stem from uh the Bernie Sanders campaign
around postsecondary education should be free I guess we're we're now laying the
groundwork for What free what you should actually get for free yeah it should be
video courses I guess yeah um being able
to have uh office hours and being able to ask questions is rather important
yeah I really don't think the point that the Democrats were trying to make is
that um the the entire us higher
education system should be changed and then be free I think they were trying to
say like what we have which is fairly
well regarded with many of the world's most prestigious schools being in the
United States that should beess to everyone and I'm
not getting involved in that debate I paid for University um I was able to
like make that work even without you
know an amazing job by being entrepreneurial and stuff like that like
I think there are ways to do it I do I
think it's great that you know people in lower income brackets than me are able
to get bseries and are able to like make that work I think the system could be
better but I'm not necessarily saying I think that it's you know everyone's
right to go to university for absolutely nothing and thinking there's possibly a
middle ground but I do think it should be accessible to everyone uh whether
that means that you have 10 years to pay back your loans or whether that means
that the costs are significantly reduced I don't know what the answer is that's
what I'm trying to say I'm just saying I don't think the answer is making it free
and significantly reducing the Staffing
of universities and colleges yeah I really don't think that was the
point
um yeah Pizza drone deliveries start
testing in New Zealand the drone delivery stuff is interesting because we
were talking about this how many years ago did we start talking about this two
one and a half something like that yeah something like that it's been a while
and they're they're still kind of going along and one thing that we said back
then that is that this wasn't going to happen now that it was going to happen
later on down the line and whatnot and there's there's a video here which you
can check out I can't imagine your pizza wouldn't be cold by the time it arrived
if it was delivered by drone like I'm just pointing out sort of
why well I don't know what's like if that's a relatively thermally sealed box
it might get there faster than what oh
by a cable it might get there faster than uh a car sometimes you throw it in
a car and it's going to be in the car for a while before it gets to Des that's true but it's going to have to be pretty
sealed because you literally are blowing four
fans very forcefully at it whereas most
of the time when I see the driver come out of their car they're keeping it like
in that thermal bag against the seat where you're going to lose a little
bit of heat but like not too much I mean these guys look like it's
super delicious all nodding yes yes the pizza did arrive by drone
yes here you go who knows though that is interesting I don't think it's going to
matter that much clearly not actors look it's
raining drop fell right in front of the lens it's like oh sometimes you just got
to do the shoot you know not a neat Pizza Guys not a eat pizza um this is
interesting ASRock rack and super micro have announced Zeon 5 systems we are
actually getting one oh what we're going to do with it I don't know but hey maybe
it can solve your uh balancing ISS give it a rest um basically these are a
couple of the Super Micro Systems that are going to be available Zeon fi is um
kind of a like
co-processor but it's a little bit different from the first generation Zeon
fi so this is the U this is the new X200
series and it's going to be a little bit different in the sense that you can
actually run Windows on it now so it's
not just on a PCI Express card that you have to add to a system that's running
regular zons now you can actually just boot a Zeon F system so they're going to
have CPUs with up to 72 cores and these
are based on highly modified atom silvermont cores running it up to 1.5
GHz with up to 36 Megs of level two cache 16 gigs of on package high
performance memory holy crap a six Channel ddr4 controller as well as 36
PCIe 3.0 Lanes this is going to be an LGA
3647 socket so these chips are like huge
huge they're massive um and should be a
significant upgrade over the existing Zeon 5 Parts which only ran over a PCI
Express Bus like I mentioned before it is expected that they will be
available in PCI Express form again but
for now they're going to look like a pretty traditional rack mount server I
wish we could get a better look at the socket there so you guys could see yeah
there you go huge so there's it there it
is liquid cooled I don't quote me on this but I want to say like 160 or 185
watt TDP or something like that oh no here we go here we go here we go 250 to
260 watt tdps so yeah liquid cooling a thing in
servers moving forward um and again I
have no idea what we're going to do with it but apparently super micro is
planning to send us one I don't think we're going to keep it
okay because we legitimately have zero use for it whatsoever we should just do
something with it folder something something um the thing is that
it's like immediately B better than the whole folding team the software designed
to run on it has to be designed to run on it even though it is sort of x86
that's also totally fair like I still haven't had my brief on it yet I've only
done a little bit of like cursory research myself um and it's not very
clear
exactly what a general consumer could possibly hope to get out of
it probably nothing yes yes yes um okay
but there are things that there's more than nothing that consumers could expect
to get out of Intel finally has m.2 ssds
freaking finally so the 600p series has
been announced in capacities of up to 1
tbte um so these are for the mainstream
market these are not a 950 Pro competitor but with that said they still
are going to outperform a SATA based SSD fairly substantially with sequential
reads in the neighborhood of up to 2 gigabytes per second and random read
iops over well over 100k 155k in random
right iops actually more difficult are at 128k so we're looking at better than
SATA 3 pretty much across the board uh although uh reviews are still pending on
this one so I don't really have anything to say other than that and I guess
that's pretty much all that I have one more thing scroll down a little bit y a
little bit more Yep a little bit a little bit more a little bit more there
the PlayStation now coming to PC okay this was at the very bottom of the dock
I did not see this definitely should have been in like the first three or you
better you better cover this so I only know a few things cuz also very bottom
of the dock just saw it uh the PlayStation Now streaming ecosystem
which I just looked up wow that's awesome um is coming to PC and includes
a huge list of games it's actually
rather massive I'm not even just saying that full list of subscription games is
like here switching my screen for a second uh oh yeah cool W this is the
full list of subscription games there's there's like if you like Bioshock
there's Bioshock BioShock 2 BioShock Infinite you like immediately get a
really substantial library of games for
not even that much money all the God of Wars all this different stuff what's the
monthly fee start your 7-Day trial uh one month for 20 bucks three months for
$44.99 three months for 44 that is substantially more expensive than
GeForce now more titles right just having a look at the titles available on
gForce now though here oh man isn't this great how we can both be looking up
different things yeah so part of the problem with GeForce now is that a lot
of the games are just the same
price you just NVIDIA is trying to sell it based on you don't have to buy a
video card so they're eating up your video card budget whereas it looks like
Sony is going after your game budget yeah um so it's a different kind of
approach so you can see a lot of these are paid games paid paid I clicked on
something sorry so the actual ones that are included with your membership are
like mostly older titles yep Saints Row
4 last gen or a couple of gens grid Auto
Sport Street Fighter 4 um Arkham Asylum
original Borderlands Borderlands one they don't have Borderlands 2 Darksiders
Darksiders 2 those are old May Cry 4
fear three um whereas
Sony's Library looks more competitive
for a couple of reasons number one is there are some more modern games in it
and I think they're getting around this with that substantially higher subscription fee yeah um as well as the
fact that Sony's library of exclusive titles spans back three generations of
some pretty freaking amazing games I'm replaying Final Fantasy Tactics right
now because if you're willing to forgive
some of the utterly gamebreaking issues with it it is a great great turn-based
game the story is completely
unintelligible as far as I can tell there's like suspenseful moments where
you're like oh yeah like that guy's bad and we hate him let's kill him you kind
of like you can kind of get into it a bit but the lore is very poorly
constructed especially at the beginning I I wouldn't blame you for having
absolutely no idea what's going on and the uh sponsors we haven't talked
about at all so I fix it I fix it has an
offer code when that will let you save $5 off a purchase of $10 or more and I
fix it this isn't a service that they offer unfortunately because it's the coolest thing ever but I want to give
them a huge shout out for providing our office with all these embroidered prot
te toolkits the latest version of the Protek tool kit um I have one that says
lonus Luke has one that says Luke John
has one that says writer so he's replaceable no it says John so they sent
us they sent us all these kits and the funny thing about it was they were like
do not show the old kits on camera
anymore we are sending you literally a dozen of the new kits do not use the old
kits but the thing is is that while the old kit is not as good in some fairly
significant ways mine is still in perfect condition and works great I have
had no desire whatsoever to use the lifetime warranty that they provide on
their tools but the new kit is better it comes with 10 more drivers for the
screwdriver kit it has this handy dandy magnetic release system and the lid is
released so you can kind of use it as a parts tray which is pretty cool yep the
uh so the lid is magnetic as well and it has all these little dividing things in
it that I totally use as a parts tray even though I'm actually not sure if
that was what they intended uh the driver is significantly upgraded it has
like a grippy part on it now so you get way way more torque and which was a
problem before and it has this handy spinning part on the top I don't know if
you guys can see that this is spinning but that makes it so you can hold that
in your in your hand and you can spin the uh the the neural part right here
like there's a few ergonomic improvements that actually make a very significant difference it also comes
with more General Parts suction cups and more plier speed prior pieces and stuff
like that the okay the plastic like uh Mac Tools is what I used to call them
they have a better name than that but these are significantly improved as well
yeah um you can just bend them in half I don't want to do it cuz like someone did
it for me before and uh darus yeah was
just like and I was like oh why did you do that and he's like look cuz it's
still perfect can I do it
yeah and see it just like bounces back I was like oh that's cool yeah um and the
ends are much more durable now cuz I I used to love those things but they had
like a lifespan yeah the more more you use them the more chewed up the ends
would get and these ones areway solid iFixit tools are the bomb and if you use
offer code when you can save five bucks off a purchase of $10 or more if you
don't have an iFixit kit and any mobile
device needs a repair in your house I
can tell you right now the math that I did is fairly
simple I can pay someone the amount it would cost me for an iFixit kit to
repair this once or I can buy an iFixit
kit now and I can do all my own repairs in the future and since then I've done
everything from taking apart an iMac to repairing my old iPhone 4 putting in a
new home button so that I can continue to use it as an MP3 player like a
throwaway device that I don't care about when I'm on trips or whatever the case
may be so highly recommended and that one was like a $6 part on eBay yeah so
you know just sitting and I personally I find repairing small electronics kind of
therapeutic so I just kind of sat and chilled for an hour replaced my home
button and it cost me nothing yeah except like $6 and the iix IT kit once
yes all right our next one and I have no idea what the bullet points are for this
coolermaster is sponsoring the W show and you can learn more about why at
coolermaster tocom because I sure don't
know it's the maker five oh it's the oh it's the master case maker 5 again oh
good the master case maker 5 gives you the freedom to build your case uh the
way you will with a variety of modular Parts S I actually forget the pre-roll
spot I haven't done it in a little while that was it wasn't it was it um hold on
the master case maker 5 gives you the freedom to make your midtower PC case
your own with a Vari free form modular system oh right with the free form
modular system with a variety with the free form mod variety of parts and
accessories with a variety of parts and accessories okay let's just screen share
here all right master case maker 5 there it is guys the master case maker 5 the
case that we have probably talked about more than any there it is free form
modular system um there's actually some pretty cool
stuff about it so the fact that you can here this is cool so you can design
stuff yourself they've actually got 3D Graphics files for external modularity
to customize or accessorize so you can download those they actually have a
store that you can find where is it is it under modding or is it under okay I'm
not sure where it is we've talked about it before but they have a store where you can actually buy third party um like
maker inspired and maker designed and maker made accessories for the masterc
case series uh custom here it is maker
Master accessories and maker made accessories some of these are pretty
cool they were showing off some Primo chill ones back at I think it was CES I
was just like oh yeah okay that's pretty neat those guys are cool and of course
their site it takes a long time to load because that's how it is sure you try
and show anything you guys are probably all over there right now or
something so I guess that's pretty much it check them out at the link in the
video description and I will go ahead and copy that link into the chat for you
guys did Nick message you that we had forgotten the sponsor spots are like no
oh okay good job someone in the twitch chat did really yeah wow yeah we should
hire them yeah that's that's now the
like yeah hiring metrics have you ever been in the W show chat yeah have you
ever reminded of of our sponsor spots no okay I think we're going to have to talk
to you later yeah but if they yell at us for being late then it cancels it out
okay yeah all right so thank you guys for
watching the WAN Show the overheated
show yeah do we need like a fan for our
microphone like I don't I don't understand what to do at this point that
anymore putting a fan yeah you don't want to put a fan on a mic we need to
like water cool it yeah we could water cool the microphone I wonder if we
somewhere else like that would be just kind of one of those totally stupid
projects but that I'm sure you guys would watch I'd watch that like water
cool your desktop microphone just out of curiosity you know you could
probably actually do it relatively easily like we could even just wrap like
some kind of conductive tubing around it
like you wouldn't actually it have to be custom Loop styled where the pump is far
away though yeah yeah put the pump like under the desk like a nice quiet pump
under the desk I think I think you'd be fine vibration isolation Okay like some
kind of like a thick rubbery phone thing of some kind yeah some kind of silicone
thing um I think that could work in like a
radiator just like mount it to the bottom bot of the desk speaking of desks
this has been a long time coming but there will be a new desk PC build online
as Tech tips and it is going to be better than every other desk PC you've
ever seen not because it looks more
impressive not because the hardware is higher end not because it has like
Hardline water cooling or anything like that it will be the best because it will
be super cheap and look pretty
cool okay yeah cuz most s PC builds are
like excessively expensive Okay and like
to replicate them you would need like an
entire well equipped shop yeah whereas this one literally doesn't have a single
glue or excuse me a single nail or screw in it you can build the entire desk PC
with a single sheet of MDF and
glue seriously well the computer would have screw in it
yes but the purpose of the desk Victory the purpose of the desk PC is that you
can build it for less than you'd pay for
like an Enthusiast grade case that's pretty wicked so it should
be pretty cool pretty excited about it that is pretty wied I mean okay to be clear the hardware inside it is going to
be baller AF because it did we have that
yeah it's a showcase build like if I go and put like an matx matx motherboard in
like one hard drive in an entire desk P I got so much [ __ ] because I released
that video about how high-end power supplies or like really really really
high wattage power supplies are stupid yeah and then the very next build that
came out had like a 1200 WT power supply in it the only reason why I did that was
because it looks nice and it came with it already had the nice cables plugged
into it yeah that computer turned on like maybe once for b-roll yeah sorry
but like the comment section oh man
people were like how can you make a video about that then make this computer
I'm like I'm not suggesting you put these parts in this case I was just
reviewing the case we're just reviewing a case it legitimately doesn't matter
what power supply we put in it no not at all it was literally just laying there
you know what was my other favorite like top comment on that video was the people
being like well actually they're not stupid because my triple r9290 build
actually like draws almost that much I'm sorry
but why did you build I want triple 290
Bill High wattage power
supplies don't make sense for any other
configuration of Hardware that would have made
sense I can build a computer that can
max out a 1,200 or even a 1500 wat power supply and I literally in the intro
seven Gamers one CPU was that computer
it actually Drew like 1500 watts from
the wall but it was stupid and that makes sense and nobody should have built
it yeah it was a cool experiment yes it
definitely was a cool experiment I don't understand why anyone built a multi what
what what architecture was that that was Hawaii oh I think so yeah I don't
understand why anyone built a multi- Hawaii Crossfire
system oh unless you were going to water
cool it maybe maybe and like hang the radiator out the window or put it on
your roof but we all know how that ends
up anyways I all right so I'm done thank
you for tuning into the show it's been a great great time we see you again next
week same bat Time same bat Channel
bye is that joke ever going to get well someone in I guess people have to get it
for it to be old someone in my chat again thought you were saying batch yeah
same batch Time same batch ch and I was like nope that's wrong
