WEBVTT

00:00:00.880 --> 00:00:08.200
all right guys it is W show time we had

00:00:05.520 --> 00:00:13.040
a couple people we've got people complaining that we're an hour late we

00:00:10.160 --> 00:00:17.400
are not an hour late daylight savings time is a thing here in the Canada well

00:00:15.759 --> 00:00:20.400
not in all of Canada but we've been through this we've been through this

00:00:18.920 --> 00:00:25.199
last week so I'm not going to spend too much time on it I actually just realized

00:00:22.760 --> 00:00:31.400
that I don't have my headphones on me so I'm not monitoring the audio so for all

00:00:27.119 --> 00:00:34.600
I know they're not hearing any of this

00:00:31.400 --> 00:00:36.360
rock on so anyway here we go I'm going

00:00:34.600 --> 00:00:44.160
to go ahead and make sure that we actually have audio it looks like we do

00:00:40.680 --> 00:00:47.840
so got people being like no sound no

00:00:44.160 --> 00:00:50.280
sound I love you guys I love you so much

00:00:47.840 --> 00:00:53.640
hey uh Brandon speaking of no sound can you Center the camera for us I think it

00:00:52.399 --> 00:00:59.039
like fell thanks man I don't know how this

00:00:56.039 --> 00:01:01.519
happens all the time I don't even get it

00:00:59.039 --> 00:01:05.360
ghost Phantom camera movers I actually I know exactly how it happens I'm usually

00:01:03.559 --> 00:01:11.240
the one who moves it by accident no because the tripod is not

00:01:08.600 --> 00:01:15.000
actually secured very well here Brandon just look over here but what are you

00:01:12.560 --> 00:01:20.479
doing in here all the time the well I I'm borrowing the lens or stuff like

00:01:17.479 --> 00:01:22.280
that so or like turning off the camera

00:01:20.479 --> 00:01:28.360
because you guys we're in a really small room like actually really small really

00:01:24.640 --> 00:01:30.439
small so the camera is on a tripod where

00:01:28.360 --> 00:01:34.720
like the back legs are like vertical and the front legs like out like this so

00:01:32.880 --> 00:01:39.600
the camera's like right against the wall I can barely reach the power button all

00:01:37.439 --> 00:01:46.799
right so we got a great show for you guys today actually fantastic show um

00:01:43.680 --> 00:01:51.799
Google has begun talking about their

00:01:46.799 --> 00:01:54.240
Smartwatch OS Android Wear so this is a

00:01:51.799 --> 00:02:02.039
type of Android that when it bites other Androids they become infected

00:01:58.000 --> 00:02:05.320
and not wear and no no Android Wear not

00:02:02.039 --> 00:02:07.200
wear I got I got it it was a joke yeah

00:02:05.320 --> 00:02:12.000
it was a rather clever one so Android Wear is going to be an OS

00:02:10.239 --> 00:02:16.840
that is specifically optimized for wearables and the one of the first

00:02:14.120 --> 00:02:22.000
products we're going to see is the Moto 360 which has people internally here at

00:02:19.599 --> 00:02:27.959
lonus Media Group anyway extremely excited because it's round

00:02:26.160 --> 00:02:31.800
well that brings in my okay I was I I tried we're not getting into this topic

00:02:29.519 --> 00:02:35.680
yet oh you have to do your introductory topics then the intro I got so excited I

00:02:33.879 --> 00:02:39.920
was ready to go anyway I we got to tease the audience don't just you my teasing

00:02:37.680 --> 00:02:43.200
articles put out entirely right up front is that there's something called Project

00:02:41.319 --> 00:02:48.800
Morpheus coming from Sony which has to do with VR and there's something more

00:02:45.239 --> 00:02:50.760
direct called uh developer kit 2 coming

00:02:48.800 --> 00:02:55.200
from Oculus which is about VR and we'll talk about both those things in their

00:02:52.800 --> 00:02:58.680
hopefully entirety later and there's also a documentary released by Valve

00:02:57.120 --> 00:03:03.080
which some people are either on on either side of a fence for and that fence seems to be completely hating it

00:03:01.720 --> 00:03:12.580
or completely loving it so we'll talk about that later as well all right

00:03:28.599 --> 00:03:34.959
bam all sponsors this week are

00:03:32.120 --> 00:03:40.400
squarespace.com and Dollar Shave Club Squarespace is the easy way to create a

00:03:37.280 --> 00:03:43.959
beautiful website for your business or

00:03:40.400 --> 00:03:46.879
store or blog or portfolio without as

00:03:43.959 --> 00:03:51.159
much effort as other Solutions and keep it super functional on multiple

00:03:49.480 --> 00:03:54.799
platforms whether it's mobile or desktop or whatever else so you can visit

00:03:52.920 --> 00:03:59.560
squarespace.com Linus for more details on that as well as Dollar Shave Club the

00:03:57.640 --> 00:04:04.120
service that allows you to shave time and shave money and they've got a great

00:04:01.799 --> 00:04:08.319
commercial where they basically explain with many exploitive deleted well at

00:04:06.319 --> 00:04:14.040
least one exploitive deleted at least one the value ad of having razor shipped

00:04:11.319 --> 00:04:18.199
to your door every month for less than what you'd pay if you went to a store

00:04:15.760 --> 00:04:22.240
and did it and with much less hassle because you don't have to wait for them

00:04:19.320 --> 00:04:25.720
to unlock Fort Knox to get out your razor blades because that's freaking

00:04:24.040 --> 00:04:30.800
ridic you know that is oh kind of ridiculous okay this is unrelated to my

00:04:28.199 --> 00:04:33.440
Dollar Shave Club like sponsorship spot here so thanks to Squarespace and Dollar

00:04:32.199 --> 00:04:37.560
Shave Club for sponsoring the episode today but um do you remember when they

00:04:35.360 --> 00:04:40.560
started doing that yeah I thought it was really weird yeah it was like must have

00:04:39.199 --> 00:04:46.680
been about 5 years ago they started doing it at the stores here and I was

00:04:43.520 --> 00:04:48.639
actually like I started shaving before

00:04:46.680 --> 00:04:53.560
they did that and then like like it happened while I was while

00:04:51.280 --> 00:05:00.080
I was shaving and I was just like one day I went to the store and I was

00:04:56.280 --> 00:05:02.400
like uh uh uh and then I was like I was

00:05:00.080 --> 00:05:06.120
at London Drugs there wasn't a single person anywhere that could possibly help

00:05:04.479 --> 00:05:10.720
me with any like when's the last time other than Cosmetics when's the last

00:05:08.600 --> 00:05:14.639
time saw someone there someone to help you and I mean we had this problem at

00:05:12.919 --> 00:05:21.000
home people yesterday or the other day too that was that was actually pretty brutal ridiculous I told you what I do

00:05:17.639 --> 00:05:23.479
for razors right I just like grinded

00:05:21.000 --> 00:05:27.560
against my face okay we got to get you hooked up

00:05:25.880 --> 00:05:31.720
with Dollar Shave Club you know what okay okay if our Dollar Shave Club is

00:05:30.160 --> 00:05:35.440
watching we need to get him hooked up with because it's actually pretty

00:05:34.039 --> 00:05:41.919
terrifying I actually grow a beard pretty quick and I've been using the same razors for like a year I just shave

00:05:40.360 --> 00:05:46.639
in the shower and just go over it a whole bunch of times that is horrible

00:05:44.039 --> 00:05:52.639
that's like horrible for you like it really is I'm not even okay like sponsor

00:05:49.400 --> 00:05:55.199
message aside that's bad for you dude I

00:05:52.639 --> 00:06:00.759
know but it's just like I'm way too lazy to go by because every single time I get

00:05:56.680 --> 00:06:03.360
there I'm just like oh I'm done I just

00:06:00.759 --> 00:06:06.520
leave I hate finding people in stores and even if I can find someone I hate

00:06:05.280 --> 00:06:10.720
talking to salese well they're just they're just

00:06:08.680 --> 00:06:15.319
opening a cabinet for you it's not like you're buying them at a car dealership

00:06:13.039 --> 00:06:18.319
speaking of car dealerships we're super mad at them should we just jump into

00:06:16.759 --> 00:06:23.479
that right now we should just jump right into that right now cuz I'm like super

00:06:21.599 --> 00:06:28.240
mad I get the feeling that we're going to be talking about this like every week

00:06:25.720 --> 00:06:31.599
for the next like I don't know how long where the hell is this link remember we

00:06:30.160 --> 00:06:41.319
can use the no it's not there where was it Ohio there we go Ohio auto dealers

00:06:35.000 --> 00:06:41.319
support an anti-tesla direct sales Bill

00:06:44.080 --> 00:06:49.919
really really they don't they support

00:06:47.240 --> 00:06:55.199
the anti- Tesla Bill and now my screen sharing isn't working because that's how

00:06:52.520 --> 00:06:58.800
angry I am right now that's like the level of anger that's going on is that

00:06:57.240 --> 00:07:03.520
even plugged into the right thing your anger just like

00:07:00.879 --> 00:07:08.000
flow is that yeah flowed into the flow flow too too much anger I think it's

00:07:06.120 --> 00:07:12.280
going into the a media thing so anyway here you do you want to like walk them

00:07:09.680 --> 00:07:18.960
through this in the okay so Ohio like obviously I don't know why anyone would

00:07:14.199 --> 00:07:18.960
think otherwise oh you just moved the

00:07:19.919 --> 00:07:24.599
camera Ohio auto dealers are trying to

00:07:22.919 --> 00:07:28.280
push the bill that will stop Tesla from opening stores outside of its only two

00:07:26.440 --> 00:07:33.160
locations in Ohio ah so you don't let them sell

00:07:31.199 --> 00:07:37.319
directly the customer you're not letting them sell like oh

00:07:35.120 --> 00:07:40.520
man they're taking legal action against them but it didn't fall in their favor

00:07:38.879 --> 00:07:45.319
blah blah blah but it might because they're in big pockets and they have

00:07:42.240 --> 00:07:47.840
tons of money and they're probably yeah

00:07:45.319 --> 00:07:53.879
do you even listen to yourself yes that wasn't as bad as coming with a brick

00:07:50.120 --> 00:07:55.400
come come with a brick that's fantastic

00:07:53.879 --> 00:08:00.080
all right I'm going to I just plugged it into a different capture card because

00:07:57.319 --> 00:08:03.360
that is how baller we are now so a lot of the auto dealers don't want to sell

00:08:01.560 --> 00:08:06.800
Tesla vehicles but they don't also don't want Tesla to be able to sell their own

00:08:05.080 --> 00:08:10.120
Vehicles which is kind of ridiculous I can fully understand the auto dealers

00:08:08.479 --> 00:08:14.840
not wanting to sell Tesla vehicles because they're stupid but I can't fully

00:08:12.599 --> 00:08:19.280
understand not Tesla vehicles are stupid auto dealers are stupid and we hate them

00:08:17.199 --> 00:08:22.120
but I can't understand they're like yeah we don't want to sell them but you can't

00:08:20.240 --> 00:08:26.479
sell them either I get where they're coming from but that's way worse and

00:08:24.599 --> 00:08:31.120
should never be allowed to be a thing so basically this just comes down to who's

00:08:28.560 --> 00:08:35.959
got the deep relation existing relationship and not what's actually

00:08:33.120 --> 00:08:40.719
best for the consumer or best for a free and open market I mean okay so here that

00:08:39.399 --> 00:08:46.360
there there's there's some big problems here so we have another article on this

00:08:42.880 --> 00:08:47.959
that's actually from jalopnik.com where

00:08:46.360 --> 00:08:52.920
Patrick George the writer there I'm just going to go ahead and bring this up on the screen figures and and this was so

00:08:51.440 --> 00:08:57.760
his early estimate when he was just digging into the public record figures

00:08:55.120 --> 00:09:03.120
that the Ohio Senator behind the new bill who was the same one who tried to

00:09:00.200 --> 00:09:08.160
sneak this into some stupid traffic legislation at some point earlier um the

00:09:06.079 --> 00:09:14.519
same guy who's behind it has taken so he figured uh

00:09:10.519 --> 00:09:16.600
$7,500 since 2009 from the Ohio

00:09:14.519 --> 00:09:21.000
Automobile Dealers Association Investment Group then there's an update

00:09:19.240 --> 00:09:24.720
to the article and it's like okay well it turns out that he got way more from

00:09:23.079 --> 00:09:30.959
car dealers that I was able to find media trackers reports between 2002 and

00:09:27.279 --> 00:09:33.279
2013 pattent received 42

00:09:30.959 --> 00:09:37.959
1,825 from State and National Auto dealership owners employees and

00:09:35.399 --> 00:09:41.839
political action committees honestly I would fully expect it to be more than

00:09:39.240 --> 00:09:47.079
that too it may very well be more than that like that's what they know of like

00:09:43.800 --> 00:09:49.680
come on but this is a big fundamental

00:09:47.079 --> 00:09:55.640
problem how can we expect the world to move forward if we just take these

00:09:52.839 --> 00:10:01.360
existing incumbents who just have Deep Pockets to just buy whatever they want

00:09:58.440 --> 00:10:06.040
and allow them to do this last week we talked about it and you went slightly

00:10:03.560 --> 00:10:09.560
defensive when saying um about how it takes it takes people a long time to

00:10:07.440 --> 00:10:12.680
adapt to different things yes and like like the selling directly from the

00:10:11.200 --> 00:10:17.920
retailer and all that kind of stuff and that kind of makes I propose to

00:10:15.279 --> 00:10:21.399
compromise I'm I'm not saying that I'm just saying like that was brought up and

00:10:19.800 --> 00:10:25.040
that's actually kind of interesting and kind of makes sense but when people are

00:10:22.839 --> 00:10:30.480
taking this kind of a stance that's not really okay okay so here's a quote from

00:10:26.720 --> 00:10:33.279
this Paton Yahoo the state leg ISL years

00:10:30.480 --> 00:10:36.760
ago recognized having distinct roles for auto

00:10:34.200 --> 00:10:40.920
manufacturers and dealers Fosters competition in the marketplace and

00:10:38.839 --> 00:10:44.600
provides consumers with a system of checks and balances to ensure that

00:10:42.959 --> 00:10:49.839
warranty and service issues are administered fairly he said in an email

00:10:47.480 --> 00:10:52.360
Senate Bill 260 simply reinforces a standard set of rules for all

00:10:51.000 --> 00:10:58.800
manufacturers and dealers to follow which benefits both the industry and consumers when was the last time anyone

00:10:56.639 --> 00:11:04.360
anywhere had a good experience with a car warranty issue at a dealership I

00:11:01.920 --> 00:11:09.360
would love to hear from you guys hit us up on Twitter if you have had a good at

00:11:07.279 --> 00:11:14.639
lineus tech on Twitter right there if your manufacturer warranty experience at

00:11:12.160 --> 00:11:18.360
a dealership was fantastic all Tesla is asking for is a to cut out the middleman

00:11:17.079 --> 00:11:24.320
and they're not blameless here they really are just trying to reduce overhead which isn't necessarily bad but

00:11:22.720 --> 00:11:28.040
the other thing that they're asking for is to control the customers experience

00:11:26.560 --> 00:11:32.040
because they don't feel like dealerships deliver a great one and I for I forget

00:11:30.480 --> 00:11:37.079
where the link was last year but I think it was something like 9% satisfaction

00:11:34.800 --> 00:11:39.880
polls well I did I tell you but when I was shopping for my car car salesman or

00:11:38.760 --> 00:11:45.279
something like that when I was shopping for my car I knew the exact model I wanted and we spent the entire day just

00:11:43.920 --> 00:11:51.880
going to dealership to dealership to dealership and I'd like walk around for a little bit and then just leave I was

00:11:49.160 --> 00:11:56.320
like I just hate these guys like I can't do it like I'd get hounded and then I

00:11:55.160 --> 00:12:02.560
talk to them for a little bit and then I just be like oh sorry just leave there's a great episode of um there's a great

00:12:00.040 --> 00:12:07.399
episode of Dexter where he he kills a car salesman and the guy just like is

00:12:05.519 --> 00:12:12.079
amazing like the actor did a really great job of being a car salesman but it

00:12:09.600 --> 00:12:16.000
was it the scary part of watching it was the car salesman was exactly like every

00:12:14.040 --> 00:12:19.480
car salesman I've ever encountered it's like oh you've got a 2-year-old son so

00:12:18.160 --> 00:12:25.800
do I and I'd be looking at them I'm like yeah you're like 65 no you don't it's

00:12:22.519 --> 00:12:27.480
just ridiculous anything to like build

00:12:25.800 --> 00:12:32.040
the relationship with the customer and make them feel comfortable giving

00:12:30.160 --> 00:12:35.480
we went with the angle I paid for my car but we went the angle so that they

00:12:33.279 --> 00:12:38.639
thought it was my parents so I could easily be the like the one actually

00:12:37.560 --> 00:12:43.320
managing everything but they were targeting my parents so he heard our

00:12:41.720 --> 00:12:47.560
last name and then asked my dad where he's from oh they ended up going to the

00:12:44.920 --> 00:12:52.240
same school and like all this crap and I was like probably not luckily all that

00:12:50.519 --> 00:12:57.079
junk is focused on my dad even though I'm the one actually making the purchasing decision that was one of the

00:12:54.720 --> 00:13:00.680
smartest things I've ever had my mom do was like let's make them think we're

00:12:58.360 --> 00:13:07.519
buying it that was so smart cuz it made it so much easier anyways anyway

00:13:05.000 --> 00:13:09.440
so I guess that's about it luckily we don't have to talk about it for very

00:13:08.639 --> 00:13:14.880
long because we're probably going to have to talk about it every single week yeah I know right as new States and new

00:13:12.519 --> 00:13:18.519
things come into play one thing that you said earlier that I thought was

00:13:16.079 --> 00:13:21.760
hilarious uh this was a few days ago about this thing CU like you were like I

00:13:20.279 --> 00:13:25.399
thought this was America yeah I thought this was America you know what's funny

00:13:23.519 --> 00:13:30.360
about that is direct sales already exists in

00:13:27.399 --> 00:13:35.519
Canada it's like America you're falling behind like Canada in your americanness

00:13:32.959 --> 00:13:39.480
like come on Freedom Train we're we're actually like rooting for you over here

00:13:37.720 --> 00:13:42.760
you guys can do it I believe in you we we want we want everyone to have the

00:13:41.240 --> 00:13:46.399
right to buy the vehicle they want the way they want without dealing with

00:13:44.279 --> 00:13:50.040
greasy used car salesman or new car salesman I don't think the new ones are

00:13:47.920 --> 00:13:53.120
better than the used ones they're not light condoms that

00:13:53.759 --> 00:14:02.399
way all right so let's head back over to my screen here Google is official

00:13:59.680 --> 00:14:07.320
getting into wearables is the first line of this article which Dante I mean come

00:14:04.600 --> 00:14:14.040
on is that is that really the headline here I mean Google Glass was I mean it

00:14:10.759 --> 00:14:15.720
goes on your face if anything it's more

00:14:14.040 --> 00:14:21.440
wearable than a smartwatch but it but it's okay it's okay it's okay I still like the article so Smartwatch is coming

00:14:19.440 --> 00:14:26.199
soon from some of the partners that they've announced including Motorola

00:14:23.079 --> 00:14:29.600
Samsung LG and more the one that you're

00:14:26.199 --> 00:14:32.399
looking right there is the Moto 3 60

00:14:29.600 --> 00:14:37.440
which has a round display and with a very very classic styling looks a lot

00:14:34.639 --> 00:14:40.519
more like what we would expect a watch to look like as opposed to just being a

00:14:38.959 --> 00:14:44.279
smartwatch now I've seen some smart Smartwatch designs haven't had my hands

00:14:42.600 --> 00:14:48.519
on too many of them yet I have a Pebble Steel coming um I'm definitely going to

00:14:46.759 --> 00:14:51.360
Ping Motorola about getting my hands on one of these and I've had some people

00:14:50.040 --> 00:14:55.360
requesting that I look at the Sony SmartWatch 2o um I reached out to my

00:14:53.680 --> 00:14:58.839
contact there but it's like a Canadian contact so they often don't have access

00:14:56.959 --> 00:15:03.000
to stuff but if I can't get one from them I'll just buy one and uh I

00:15:00.759 --> 00:15:06.560
definitely want to talk more about about these wearables but um I've seen some

00:15:05.079 --> 00:15:11.920
really smart ones that include things like a classic analog watch under a

00:15:09.600 --> 00:15:15.279
transparent screen and I think something like that is I told you about that

00:15:14.079 --> 00:15:20.839
that's that's the thing that I didn't want to put in uh the show yet but like

00:15:18.519 --> 00:15:24.320
I've i' I told you about that months ago about how that should have been a thing

00:15:22.279 --> 00:15:27.680
how they have a normal watch with a screen on top of it so it can be a smart

00:15:26.120 --> 00:15:31.319
watch or a classic watch that makes so much sense that makes a ton of sense to

00:15:29.279 --> 00:15:35.160
me but for someone like me who doesn't really about the classic watch look I

00:15:33.600 --> 00:15:39.240
would probably still go with something more like the Moto 360 so basically it's

00:15:37.959 --> 00:15:43.079
going to be running a very very lightweight OS you're going to have the

00:15:40.959 --> 00:15:48.120
ability to obviously pair it with your other Android devices uh you'll be able

00:15:45.440 --> 00:15:54.399
to use things like voice control so Google Now something that doesn't come

00:15:50.480 --> 00:15:56.160
up in everyday conversation that much uh

00:15:54.399 --> 00:16:01.120
unlike Xbox my buddy Nick and I were hanging out last night working on something and I had my phone up and he

00:15:58.800 --> 00:16:06.399
had his phone up and he decided to set a calendar event he like Okay Google and

00:16:04.240 --> 00:16:12.440
they're like like stop no I don't want this on

00:16:09.959 --> 00:16:17.800
my phone anyways sorry keep going um Google's also working with fashion

00:16:14.759 --> 00:16:19.680
brands as opposed to just pure it Brands

00:16:17.800 --> 00:16:23.920
I mean the the great thing about it Brands we love them dearly and they

00:16:21.319 --> 00:16:27.240
deliver fantastic technology to us um the not so great thing about them is

00:16:25.680 --> 00:16:32.040
that sometimes they don't really have great fashion sense and Apple

00:16:30.199 --> 00:16:38.440
well I did pick the orange one the bad fashion sense was sort of my bad here so

00:16:34.680 --> 00:16:40.880
you're the it brand is I'm the IT guy so

00:16:38.440 --> 00:16:46.800
when you compare that to Apple um and they just beautiful fashion sense Google

00:16:44.199 --> 00:16:52.399
doesn't want their mobile their wearable OS to be stuck as like for for it dorks

00:16:50.680 --> 00:16:55.720
like me they want it to be something that will be accepted by the general

00:16:54.040 --> 00:16:59.000
consumer so they will be working very closely with their Partners to ensure

00:16:57.120 --> 00:17:02.880
that we get beautiful designs although Moto 360 from a more traditional company

00:17:01.920 --> 00:17:09.520
although we don't know how much influence Google had on the project because of the very brief ownership that

00:17:07.000 --> 00:17:14.160
they had of Motorola so all of those things um looks absolutely beautiful and

00:17:12.640 --> 00:17:18.959
and that's a big thing with watches cuz watches are huge about style yes so like

00:17:17.319 --> 00:17:22.280
it it does make a ton of sense if we really cared about the functionality of

00:17:20.640 --> 00:17:27.559
watches everyone would still be wearing a calculator

00:17:24.600 --> 00:17:32.679
watch hey I had one that did everything it had a backlight could do alarms I

00:17:30.919 --> 00:17:38.360
could write boobies on it yeah I'm sure you could did

00:17:36.440 --> 00:17:44.520
absolutely everything so did I miss anything there

00:17:42.320 --> 00:17:47.160
I don't think so we're just kind of waiting to get one so we can do a video

00:17:46.280 --> 00:17:54.240
about it yeah there will be more information in sort of the beginning of the summer sort of like late June sort

00:17:51.320 --> 00:17:57.960
of time frame um there's lots of rumors flying around about Apple Smartwatch I'm

00:17:56.360 --> 00:18:02.520
really excited to see what comes from both of them and I will definitely get

00:17:59.440 --> 00:18:04.520
my hands on them at my soonest possible

00:18:02.520 --> 00:18:10.039
opportunity uh one thing I don't like about the Moto 360 which I guess let's

00:18:06.600 --> 00:18:12.600
get into now is that they seem to be

00:18:10.039 --> 00:18:20.520
using just kind of a a traditional LCD based screen um and for

00:18:16.320 --> 00:18:22.400
me with a phone I can like here here

00:18:20.520 --> 00:18:26.000
this is this is actually great cuz I have my phone plugged into a battery

00:18:24.120 --> 00:18:32.960
bank right now CU it died when I tried to call him right with a phone I can

00:18:30.480 --> 00:18:38.600
kind of accept one day battery because it's something that I already like I

00:18:35.840 --> 00:18:43.480
don't know like I already accept it even though I don't know if I should like our

00:18:40.240 --> 00:18:45.240
our new guy Taran um was using some

00:18:43.480 --> 00:18:50.600
ancient hey Taran do you have your phone here your old

00:18:47.080 --> 00:18:53.720
one yeah he does does he yeah

00:18:50.600 --> 00:18:56.320
Taran do you have your old phone

00:18:53.720 --> 00:19:01.080
here can I borrow it you guys are going to love this so he's got an old phone

00:18:58.559 --> 00:19:04.200
that he figures gets about a month of battery life but I saw this thing and I

00:19:02.799 --> 00:19:08.720
was like dude you got to get with the time so I was just like here's a One

00:19:06.400 --> 00:19:13.000
Mini I know it's not the greatest phone in the world but jeez man when I first

00:19:11.320 --> 00:19:18.520
saw it I thought it was a Blackberry yeah if a Blackberry was made

00:19:15.520 --> 00:19:21.360
by like Fisher pra so this is this is

00:19:18.520 --> 00:19:24.960
like a look at the screen size it actually doesn't even weigh anything

00:19:23.159 --> 00:19:29.919
either it does have a keybard to my thumb yeah here

00:19:29.919 --> 00:19:36.120
thank you um so we can we can make fun of it because we we gave him something

00:19:34.200 --> 00:19:40.280
else but one of the things he complained about immediately switching to a modern

00:19:38.559 --> 00:19:44.080
smartphone is the hey the battery life sucks on this thing I have to charge it

00:19:41.960 --> 00:19:48.520
every day and I have been doing it for so long that I've kind of Forgotten but

00:19:46.120 --> 00:19:52.799
with watches we're not talking about going from a week of battery on my old

00:19:50.320 --> 00:19:56.200
noia brick phone versus like a day of or a couple days of battery at best on a

00:19:54.520 --> 00:20:04.280
smartphone we're talking about going from months long batteries or even like

00:20:00.159 --> 00:20:06.880
solar powered to like a day on the gear

00:20:04.280 --> 00:20:11.120
no no no so we need to see mirol displays we need to see advances in that

00:20:09.120 --> 00:20:15.080
technology we need to see whatever it takes to keep them low power enough to

00:20:12.640 --> 00:20:20.000
run for at least four to 5 days would be my Benchmark if I can remember to charge

00:20:17.280 --> 00:20:24.720
it a couple times a week then I'm okay with that I found when I was testing G2

00:20:23.080 --> 00:20:28.360
that it had like actually a pretty acceptable amount because you could go

00:20:26.799 --> 00:20:31.600
with pretty heavy use for 2 days and between totally fine and that was pretty

00:20:30.280 --> 00:20:35.480
good cuz if you forgot one night you probably wouldn't forget the next so

00:20:33.400 --> 00:20:39.000
that was okay when I was testing it so right now we don't have too many details

00:20:37.120 --> 00:20:43.880
about the 360 it's going to launch in the summer uh they aren't mentioning any

00:20:41.480 --> 00:20:48.120
specs whatsoever and I think that's going to be a common theme with

00:20:45.919 --> 00:20:52.400
SmartWatches Samsung did release some of the specifications of the gear so they

00:20:51.039 --> 00:20:55.559
were like yeah we're using kind of this processor we're using a cut down Android

00:20:54.200 --> 00:20:59.000
we're doing this we're doing that but you look at what Qualcomm did with the

00:20:57.240 --> 00:21:03.200
talk they didn't give us any specs I don't think anyone really I don't think

00:21:01.559 --> 00:21:08.080
Pebble talks about what they're using in their watches at all I think for these

00:21:05.600 --> 00:21:12.960
kinds of devices the the Space Race the gigahertz race um is going to be pretty

00:21:10.760 --> 00:21:17.440
much over and I'm okay with that and I had some I had someone criticize me

00:21:14.799 --> 00:21:20.600
pretty harshly on my Talk review when I said I don't know what's in here and I

00:21:18.840 --> 00:21:25.120
don't care they said well you're a Tech head you're supposed to care but the

00:21:22.640 --> 00:21:30.000
reality of it is that beyond the display and the aesthetic and the software of

00:21:27.799 --> 00:21:36.039
something like a smart Smart Watch why would I care all the processing is done

00:21:33.240 --> 00:21:39.120
here all the connectivity besides and hopefully that will happen even more

00:21:38.039 --> 00:21:44.679
right we've talked about this in the past where we were talking about having a more centralized compute and then your

00:21:42.919 --> 00:21:49.720
other things just connecting to it so hopefully that will matter even less

00:21:47.240 --> 00:21:54.080
than it does now if anything the smart watch should be as dumb as possible so

00:21:52.279 --> 00:21:57.840
that we can extend its battery life cuz that'll be a better overall experience

00:21:55.720 --> 00:22:01.320
if you can you know have your wireless Ear Pod

00:21:59.159 --> 00:22:04.919
and your Smartwatch and all this stuff that just uses super low power

00:22:02.840 --> 00:22:09.679
connectivity to have something else do all the work and act as as a hub then

00:22:08.520 --> 00:22:15.320
that's going to deliver a much better experience for people who actually need to like gear all this stuff up every day

00:22:13.320 --> 00:22:18.720
before they leave the house yeah um so it'll probably feature wireless charging

00:22:17.240 --> 00:22:22.799
we'll launch first in the US but we'll find a way to get our hands on it um no

00:22:21.320 --> 00:22:27.600
camera on board uh there are some pictures and

00:22:24.960 --> 00:22:32.520
renders on the uh The Daily Tech article here so nice pop that it looks

00:22:29.840 --> 00:22:37.039
absolutely beautiful doesn't it yeah there you go and like the classic watch

00:22:33.960 --> 00:22:38.360
fronts look really good yeah I'm

00:22:37.039 --> 00:22:43.760
actually pretty stoked for this too and I haven't been super stoked for too many smart watches yet so you'll be able to

00:22:41.760 --> 00:22:48.039
do all the usual stuff check your emails preview your text messages all that kind

00:22:45.360 --> 00:22:52.640
of all that kind of nonsense but uh you know I'm not going to get too hyped

00:22:49.520 --> 00:22:54.880
about it this time because I got really

00:22:52.640 --> 00:23:00.640
amped on the qualcom talk yeah I remember that I was like it did look a

00:22:57.279 --> 00:23:02.679
lot better and it's not bad yeah it

00:23:00.640 --> 00:23:06.679
isn't a bad product there's just a few things like the the cutting the thing

00:23:04.600 --> 00:23:09.720
it's just not a finished product yeah that was my issue with it and it was too

00:23:08.400 --> 00:23:13.880
expensive although they dropped the price $100 like two days after my review

00:23:12.039 --> 00:23:17.080
went up so I single-handedly take responsibility for that price

00:23:17.480 --> 00:23:22.960
drop no I don't but but I I I would have

00:23:21.279 --> 00:23:27.240
probably adjusted my conclusion about the device a little bit based on the

00:23:25.840 --> 00:23:32.400
price drop but I would have also needed to see them going in the right direction in terms of software Dev as well I mean

00:23:30.679 --> 00:23:35.720
one thing that I really you know this this isn't in our

00:23:34.799 --> 00:23:42.919
agenda today but go for it we do that a lot

00:23:38.640 --> 00:23:45.159
anyways yeah I know Fitness wearables y

00:23:42.919 --> 00:23:50.039
fad or longterm I think eventually they'll just

00:23:47.080 --> 00:23:55.400
be integrated into everything else um but I think Fitness is not a

00:23:52.559 --> 00:23:59.080
fad okay so like I think it'll be something maybe considering your

00:23:56.720 --> 00:24:02.200
Smartwatch will have skin contact anyway maybe it can grab your heartbeat that

00:24:00.480 --> 00:24:05.520
way maybe other things can do everything that Fitness wearables are currently

00:24:03.520 --> 00:24:09.520
doing so you don't need them maybe your freaking running headphones that you

00:24:07.600 --> 00:24:13.480
wear can now do everything that the fitness wearable does yeah I saw one

00:24:11.520 --> 00:24:17.279
that's I actually kickstarted it last night I think I didn't even know that

00:24:14.919 --> 00:24:21.799
existed so like I I think the idea of Fitness integrated with technology that

00:24:19.200 --> 00:24:26.440
you can go on a run is only going to get bigger but I don't know if it's going to

00:24:23.840 --> 00:24:30.559
be dedicated devices are we just selling the dream to people who are out of shape

00:24:29.039 --> 00:24:36.640
no not necessarily because the main people I know that are buying these things are actually fairly in shape okay

00:24:34.520 --> 00:24:40.919
I know someone that goes for like 10 to 15K runs at least twice a week and he's

00:24:39.240 --> 00:24:47.600
the one that always has the new fitness wearable okay okay but of course you're

00:24:44.919 --> 00:24:52.000
dealing with Fitness some amount of it is going to be selling the dream cuz we

00:24:49.039 --> 00:24:56.559
fit sold like billio some amount of it is selling the dream I out of the

00:24:54.480 --> 00:25:01.200
3,130 people watching right now I guarantee not one of you has touched a

00:24:57.919 --> 00:25:02.399
we fit in like a year like that's the

00:25:01.200 --> 00:25:07.600
that's the issue with these Fitness wearables is that I look at them right

00:25:04.720 --> 00:25:11.960
now in their current form and I go well that's stupid because it does like one

00:25:09.559 --> 00:25:15.880
thing and it's an entire another device to carry around something that I've been

00:25:13.520 --> 00:25:19.600
waiting for is a more and like I know I'm taking this course so of course I'm

00:25:17.320 --> 00:25:23.640
trying to apply it to everything but um I kind of always do because I think it's

00:25:21.240 --> 00:25:28.720
fantastic but a more gamified system of Fitness wearables like my biggest

00:25:25.240 --> 00:25:32.039
complaint with the Zombies Run 2 app is

00:25:28.720 --> 00:25:35.279
that it's not tracked enough and there's

00:25:32.039 --> 00:25:36.840
not enough like goals and progress loops

00:25:35.279 --> 00:25:42.080
and engagement loops and stuff like that like there's nothing pushing me to go for my run right other than myself once

00:25:40.360 --> 00:25:45.880
I get out there I get the voice track I get all that kind of stuff but like the

00:25:43.840 --> 00:25:51.200
build your own base part of it is really not very welldeveloped and it's kind of

00:25:47.880 --> 00:25:53.760
really boring and has no real meaning um

00:25:51.200 --> 00:25:59.000
and the social integration is there but it's kind of JY and doesn't matter the

00:25:56.640 --> 00:26:05.200
problem with social integration for fitness apps in my mind is that it helps

00:26:02.440 --> 00:26:10.520
the people who are already really active yeah maybe it keeps a ball rolling but I

00:26:07.399 --> 00:26:13.159
don't think if you're not in a group of

00:26:10.520 --> 00:26:16.919
physically engaged people like uh so so the only real thing that I do to work

00:26:14.399 --> 00:26:22.000
out is I play badminton so unless my whole group all are like using that app

00:26:20.320 --> 00:26:25.760
or something and like we play all of our games with like this badminton app or

00:26:23.880 --> 00:26:28.760
something that tracks how far you moved on the court and we can compare stats

00:26:27.559 --> 00:26:33.039
and there's some kind of there like unless it's really deeply integrated and

00:26:32.039 --> 00:26:36.159
really personalized it's not that meaningful to

00:26:35.080 --> 00:26:41.080
me and I don't think it's going to help a couch potato get off the couch I think it's more like for your buddy who

00:26:39.240 --> 00:26:44.559
already runs anyway yeah and that's true but then it's it has to be voluntary

00:26:43.039 --> 00:26:48.480
like that part of the app has to be voluntary you have to look for it and

00:26:46.279 --> 00:26:53.159
you have to enable it yourself if it's forced upon you it's just going to hurt

00:26:50.360 --> 00:26:58.720
right it's not a good idea um but like having those things where maybe playing

00:26:55.919 --> 00:27:02.080
Zombies Run if I go for a run four or five times in one week it can be like

00:27:00.679 --> 00:27:05.600
you're really getting on it it give be some sort of badge or award or something

00:27:04.240 --> 00:27:10.000
and then maybe I can get something in the game maybe it'll talk to me different or something like that like

00:27:07.799 --> 00:27:13.760
some type of so I can have some sort of a goal within the system within the game

00:27:12.320 --> 00:27:17.039
I think that's a good idea and could push a lot of people off the couch

00:27:15.399 --> 00:27:22.200
because the main reason why I'm going for these runs lately is because it's

00:27:19.200 --> 00:27:23.919
fun right I hate going for runs is

00:27:22.200 --> 00:27:27.640
mind-numbingly boring but if I can listen to this this audio tape

00:27:26.240 --> 00:27:32.080
essentially which is just giving me a storyline which I really have no integration with which is another thing

00:27:30.559 --> 00:27:35.480
that's terrible about that game is there's no actual plotted points on a

00:27:33.760 --> 00:27:38.120
map so I just run in a circle the whole time and they're like yeah let's run

00:27:36.960 --> 00:27:42.880
down Main Street and I'm like I'm running through the park this is not a

00:27:40.320 --> 00:27:46.679
thing I think when you'll convince me CU that that again is the to is the problem

00:27:45.039 --> 00:27:51.240
with this Fitness thing for me and I think what's out there now is kind of

00:27:48.679 --> 00:27:55.039
fatty yeah but it that's the problem but when we see it more tightly integrated

00:27:52.960 --> 00:27:59.640
like that um that laser tag system that we saw with the augmented reality when

00:27:57.159 --> 00:28:04.000
you integrate that with a fitness element you build a fitness app for that

00:28:01.919 --> 00:28:07.679
so that it's designed to move your Battlefield around and your objectives

00:28:05.960 --> 00:28:12.880
around like if they mix like if they mixed like uh Ingress with uh Zombies

00:28:11.240 --> 00:28:16.080
Run so you have to like run to a point and like take it over and then keep

00:28:14.600 --> 00:28:19.600
running something yeah yeah that totally makes sense something like that is a

00:28:17.600 --> 00:28:24.120
whole other ball game and then you know I've got a lot of people okay I I I I

00:28:22.159 --> 00:28:28.399
don't I don't normally I don't normally respond to these kinds of comments but

00:28:26.799 --> 00:28:31.960
I've got a lot of people that that are that are giving me a hard time about

00:28:30.000 --> 00:28:37.120
Badminton being a workout here on the stream so uh so oh god really so you

00:28:35.159 --> 00:28:44.000
know what okay here we go right

00:28:40.320 --> 00:28:45.960
there that's right this is awkward right

00:28:44.000 --> 00:28:50.039
there I'm not a part of this binton is a workout I'm not a part I wasn't on this

00:28:47.559 --> 00:28:57.159
stream it's the only thing I do I wasn't on the stream bam all right I'm just

00:28:54.600 --> 00:29:01.840
putting that out there so let's move on to our next topic because badminton is a

00:28:59.399 --> 00:29:06.799
thing this is awkward Amazon smartphone the original article is from bgr.com oh

00:29:05.320 --> 00:29:10.640
you know what no before we move into that let's have a look at people's

00:29:08.519 --> 00:29:16.600
comments on the whole dealership thing Ryan says Nope um hermy says Audi has

00:29:14.200 --> 00:29:20.720
good car salesman uh Tommy says I work at a and we don't have razors in cages

00:29:18.679 --> 00:29:24.399
there they're alarmed and it's in front of the counter okay that's not that's

00:29:22.919 --> 00:29:30.559
better if you're willing to give up that near the car salesman um or that near car that near

00:29:28.799 --> 00:29:34.480
the counter space Cameron Martin that's probably the point hated that car

00:29:31.960 --> 00:29:38.760
salesman yeah Chevy wanted me to pay 2K to fix one wire in the harness of my car

00:29:36.880 --> 00:29:43.600
that was a known defect that kills audio I did it myself for $12 oh my God Ashley

00:29:41.440 --> 00:29:47.279
says I had a good experience but they didn't struggle was your garage sale

00:29:46.039 --> 00:29:50.919
successful yes it was we're going to have another garage sale today never

00:29:49.399 --> 00:29:56.720
have many issues with recurring transmission problem even went to multiple dealerships you know my parents

00:29:54.440 --> 00:30:00.120
SUV um that's stupid you know how the hatch doesn't open yeah that's been

00:29:58.559 --> 00:30:05.760
there since like 6 months after they got it they've never managed to actually fix

00:30:02.080 --> 00:30:10.320
it y okay Mr Jimmy penguin says I have

00:30:05.760 --> 00:30:12.440
okay that was good um fully supported

00:30:10.320 --> 00:30:15.600
the okay infinity dealer at Richmond autal is apparently pretty good they

00:30:13.760 --> 00:30:19.640
always fix it up but the coffee is lousy coffe though 70 bucks for my 30k

00:30:17.799 --> 00:30:23.440
maintenance for free one day yeah okay nope dealerships would kill a rising up

00:30:21.159 --> 00:30:27.399
with bad experiences I'm a kid so this doesn't matter haven't bought a car yet

00:30:25.919 --> 00:30:30.200
are good for getting service done I've gone to private garages for Diagnostics

00:30:29.039 --> 00:30:34.240
and they were way off okay I think that's going to vary a

00:30:32.519 --> 00:30:38.039
lot I think a lot of it too is going to vary between vendors as well too but

00:30:36.440 --> 00:30:42.399
that's I mean this is good for us to know so just because our experience have

00:30:40.480 --> 00:30:46.960
been what they are well we have a very small um use I don't buy new I don't buy

00:30:45.000 --> 00:30:52.480
new vehicles I've been shopping for new vehicles but um I've never actually

00:30:50.600 --> 00:30:56.000
that's another thing bought for myself have you actually dealt with the new

00:30:53.880 --> 00:30:59.799
vehicle salesman though uh yeah oh yeah I was I've only dealt with used car

00:30:57.600 --> 00:31:03.600
sales um when uh when I was shopping for my wife's car we were going to buy new

00:31:02.080 --> 00:31:09.000
and then we ended up not so we we shopped everywhere I I deal I dealt with

00:31:06.720 --> 00:31:12.679
dealers that sold new cars and used cars they weren't just used cars dealerships

00:31:11.080 --> 00:31:16.360
they were like everything dealerships right um so I don't know if that makes

00:31:14.799 --> 00:31:21.200
any difference but yeah I also don't have a huge amount of experience I've bought one car that was from a

00:31:19.799 --> 00:31:26.639
dealership the car that I bought before that was from like just a family friend

00:31:23.639 --> 00:31:28.320
I apologize to whoever I made throw up

00:31:26.639 --> 00:31:33.039
you made someone throw up my with my tummy have you like not ever watched TV

00:31:31.159 --> 00:31:36.840
or gone to a pool or something yeah no apparently apparently threw up guys

00:31:35.039 --> 00:31:44.360
stomachs are like not really a a censored thing I'm just putting that out

00:31:40.880 --> 00:31:46.480
there you must throw up a

00:31:44.360 --> 00:31:51.480
lot that's great moving on all right yeah let's move on

00:31:48.840 --> 00:31:55.360
okay should we have another like this is on almost every week thing talk about

00:31:53.840 --> 00:31:59.440
that no let's do the uh let's do the Amazon smartphone R rumors so this isn't

00:31:58.000 --> 00:32:03.919
confirmed in anyway I'll let you handled this one the Amazon smartphone thing

00:32:01.760 --> 00:32:08.120
yeah I didn't really look over this a ton cuz I didn't really care because

00:32:05.720 --> 00:32:12.440
it's a not confirmed and like what are they

00:32:08.960 --> 00:32:12.440
doing I don't

00:32:12.519 --> 00:32:18.440
know it doesn't make a ton of sense to me the the camera things for gestures

00:32:17.080 --> 00:32:23.080
okay so there's like six cameras or something yeah there's six cameras there's a front and back and there's

00:32:20.880 --> 00:32:27.360
four for gestures yeah that's interesting yep that's definitely

00:32:25.320 --> 00:32:33.159
interesting but I personally I'm not super interested in gestures on my phone

00:32:30.399 --> 00:32:37.159
um I like gestures on monitors we saw that at CES I thought that was

00:32:35.120 --> 00:32:40.240
interesting um gesture control built into monitors I thought that was kind of

00:32:38.480 --> 00:32:45.600
cool especially for touch desktop experiences I could see it helping

00:32:41.919 --> 00:32:47.880
Windows 8.1 or maybe Windows 9 rumors a

00:32:45.600 --> 00:32:51.399
lot because of like uh modern UI or whatever because at a desktop I'm not

00:32:49.880 --> 00:32:55.360
necessarily that close and I don't want to be like touching things all the time

00:32:53.919 --> 00:32:59.200
so I think that's kind of cool but for my phone it's always right there and I

00:32:57.440 --> 00:33:02.559
don't really mind touching the screen I like the tactile feedback so I'm not

00:33:00.919 --> 00:33:09.840
really sure I'm not super interested in that um it's it doesn't have the highest

00:33:06.360 --> 00:33:12.559
end screen the battery seems like super

00:33:09.840 --> 00:33:18.240
lame um I don't know I don't know why they're

00:33:15.279 --> 00:33:22.240
getting into the smartphone market now when it seems like all the hype is going

00:33:20.480 --> 00:33:26.360
down but maybe that is a good time because maybe the shelf life for a phone

00:33:24.159 --> 00:33:29.639
is becoming longer because the the market isn't being as pushed as hard

00:33:27.919 --> 00:33:34.279
yeah and I mean if their whole model is that they're just going to sell you a

00:33:30.919 --> 00:33:36.159
device and then um not really care at

00:33:34.279 --> 00:33:41.440
all if they make any money on it and then instead bundle in their services or

00:33:38.840 --> 00:33:46.519
sell you ebooks or audio books down the line then ultimately what do they care

00:33:44.799 --> 00:33:50.440
as long as it's a reasonably competitive device at a reasonably competitive price

00:33:48.799 --> 00:33:55.200
if you're someone who's deeply entrenched in the Amazon ecosystem which

00:33:52.360 --> 00:33:58.679
is getting easier and easier to do um not for Canadians might make a ton of

00:33:56.480 --> 00:34:02.760
sense yeah not so much for Canadians but all the news we get is so us Centric

00:34:00.799 --> 00:34:06.200
anyway yeah we had I had someone in the twitch chat saying that some of what we

00:34:04.320 --> 00:34:11.040
were saying was offensive he's a car salesman

00:34:07.839 --> 00:34:13.480
and sorry it might not be you maybe

00:34:11.040 --> 00:34:19.119
you're the good one but there's always got to be an exception to prove the rule

00:34:15.760 --> 00:34:21.040
yep and like all I can go on is my own

00:34:19.119 --> 00:34:26.119
experience my yeah my personal experience has not been super great but

00:34:24.200 --> 00:34:30.760
then I have very low amount of personal experience

00:34:27.879 --> 00:34:37.879
all right so moving on to smartphones that may actually be reasonably exciting

00:34:33.639 --> 00:34:41.040
the iPhone 6 so there are renders there

00:34:37.879 --> 00:34:43.760
are maybe leaks we're looking at an

00:34:41.040 --> 00:34:50.679
ultra retina screen with a 379 pixels per inch density totally

00:34:47.720 --> 00:34:55.359
unnecessary did I say 379 cuz I meant 389 that 10 extra pixels is going to

00:34:53.200 --> 00:35:02.800
make all the difference definitely uh uh we could be looking at

00:34:58.839 --> 00:35:05.960
Apple's fastest processor yet A 2.6 GHz

00:35:02.800 --> 00:35:08.079
A8 processor this little render right

00:35:05.960 --> 00:35:13.680
here may not actually be factual at all but the rumors are that it might be as

00:35:10.680 --> 00:35:17.839
thin as 5 and2

00:35:13.680 --> 00:35:21.599
mm which is kind of Berserk so more like

00:35:17.839 --> 00:35:24.960
an iPad Air shrunk down as opposed to um

00:35:21.599 --> 00:35:26.440
more bricky like the previous iPhones um

00:35:24.960 --> 00:35:34.880
we could be looking at two different display sizes 4 and 5.7 in um which is a

00:35:32.240 --> 00:35:38.920
real departure and kind of surprising to me like I would have expected them to do

00:35:37.160 --> 00:35:45.320
something more like the traditional iPhone size and then maybe a 4.7 large

00:35:42.520 --> 00:35:52.520
iPhone I wouldn't have expected them to do a larger iPhone and a and like almost

00:35:48.720 --> 00:35:55.640
a fablet jobs has passed man but the

00:35:52.520 --> 00:35:58.000
thing is okay like if we if we think

00:35:55.640 --> 00:36:01.800
about you know who's using I know you mean like make an option so that all the

00:36:00.200 --> 00:36:06.280
current users that want the same siiz phone can have that option and like I'm

00:36:03.880 --> 00:36:10.560
not trying to generalize based on sex I'm not going to say that women use

00:36:08.079 --> 00:36:15.760
iPhones and men use Android phones well gay apparently uses an iPhone who gay

00:36:14.200 --> 00:36:21.720
gay Ben yeah well okay we'll talk about that later um but what I will say is

00:36:18.960 --> 00:36:27.119
that four people with smaller hands and women would fall into that category I

00:36:25.000 --> 00:36:31.280
also would so I'm not like down on them or anything

00:36:28.200 --> 00:36:33.800
the iPhone is a great option because it

00:36:31.280 --> 00:36:38.119
is smaller but it is still very highend very high spec and very feature rate but

00:36:35.440 --> 00:36:41.560
you've used a bigger phone now yep and you were totally fine with it I'm

00:36:39.680 --> 00:36:46.960
totally fine with it but I went back to using my iPhone 4 not that long ago and

00:36:44.040 --> 00:36:50.440
I was like oh yeah it's really easy to use okay and oh this is actually

00:36:49.079 --> 00:36:56.119
something that isn't on the dock and I didn't talk about last week um Apple

00:36:52.280 --> 00:36:58.520
fixed it the iPhone 4 on iOS

00:36:56.119 --> 00:37:02.520
7.1 Snappy it's not it's not a new high-end device

00:37:00.599 --> 00:37:06.480
or anything but it's way better like you saw it before y it's probably as

00:37:04.560 --> 00:37:10.440
responsible as as responsible as responsive as my like cluttered up HTC1

00:37:08.800 --> 00:37:15.720
at this point for basic stuff I mean it hitches more maybe more like a Moto G

00:37:13.480 --> 00:37:19.400
okay yeah more like a Moto G and that was one of the things that I had mocked

00:37:17.359 --> 00:37:23.560
Apple openly about before was that they were positioning iPhone 4 in markets

00:37:21.359 --> 00:37:27.599
like India as a competitor for Moto G and it was more expensive well now at

00:37:25.560 --> 00:37:31.480
least it has higher build quality and and it's delivering a responsive

00:37:29.640 --> 00:37:34.880
experience yeah because it was kind of a problem oh it was terrible terrible for

00:37:33.599 --> 00:37:38.200
a while AG kind of a really big problem so kudos to Apple for continuing to SP I

00:37:36.800 --> 00:37:44.160
mean this is something that I always have to contrast um against the Android

00:37:41.520 --> 00:37:50.520
experience is I got my iPhone 4 the same time my wife got a Galaxy S Vibrant how

00:37:47.760 --> 00:37:54.160
supported is a Galaxy S Vibrant versus an iPhone 4 and that's that's why I

00:37:52.560 --> 00:37:59.680
always leaned on Nexus devices pretty hard yeah is cuz at least with my Nexus

00:37:56.280 --> 00:38:02.040
S um um I had updates for a really long

00:37:59.680 --> 00:38:06.760
time did nexs ever get kit kat uh I don't think so I think I

00:38:05.240 --> 00:38:11.400
stopped using it before that would have happened so I'm not

00:38:08.720 --> 00:38:17.720
sure apparently there there are ROMs if nothing else uh Kit Kat Android 4.4

00:38:13.920 --> 00:38:19.119
that's through S engine mod uh Android

00:38:17.720 --> 00:38:26.119
maybe someone in the twitch chat can let us know I can't I can't remember I don't follow phones as closely as uh as I do

00:38:24.040 --> 00:38:29.400
lots of other things all right so let's see if there are any more iPhone 6 oh

00:38:27.760 --> 00:38:36.079
yeah there's a couple really cool leaks so two things um the rumor is that Apple

00:38:33.599 --> 00:38:41.119
may be using U so they they put in five patents for liquid metal and um the

00:38:39.359 --> 00:38:44.200
rumors is that it may be used to encase the phone so there's a there's a link to

00:38:43.000 --> 00:38:51.319
the patent here I'm just going to go ahead and fire this up for you guys minus' screen okay that's probably not

00:38:48.599 --> 00:38:54.480
that helpful so there you go basically that that's what at least one of them

00:38:52.599 --> 00:38:59.240
looks like but let's talk a little bit about liquid metal because a lot of

00:38:56.319 --> 00:39:05.720
people are under the uh impression that liquid metal is actually liquid no but

00:39:02.359 --> 00:39:07.920
it isn't at all what liquid metal is is

00:39:05.720 --> 00:39:13.599
more of it's okay it's it's it's strong and its light and it's more to do with

00:39:10.599 --> 00:39:17.480
the ease of working with it and the fact

00:39:13.599 --> 00:39:20.520
that it's difficult to scratch than like

00:39:17.480 --> 00:39:22.599
it being like liquid like you know a

00:39:20.520 --> 00:39:27.640
doorway that you approach and it like you know dissolves as you walk through

00:39:25.160 --> 00:39:31.640
it like it's not like that it's just um the the difference the main difference

00:39:29.079 --> 00:39:37.119
between liquid metal and normal metal is that rather than having a clear melting

00:39:33.760 --> 00:39:40.440
point where we go from solid to liquid

00:39:37.119 --> 00:39:43.079
liquid metal becomes more softer and

00:39:40.440 --> 00:39:47.599
softer and easier and easier to mold and more liquid like very gradually as you

00:39:45.680 --> 00:39:51.000
increase the temperature so this means that you can work with it in a number of

00:39:49.480 --> 00:39:55.119
different ways it also maintains its strength even if you heat it up and cool

00:39:52.920 --> 00:39:59.480
it down so what happens is you can make it super liquid to the point where you

00:39:57.440 --> 00:40:04.720
can cast it which with traditional Metals is not nearly as strong as if you

00:40:02.280 --> 00:40:08.280
were to forge it or work on it in some other way so you can cast it and then if

00:40:07.000 --> 00:40:11.839
you're at a different temperature you can actually mold it so you can create

00:40:10.440 --> 00:40:15.560
very complex shapes another characteristic of liquid metal is that

00:40:13.560 --> 00:40:20.359
it doesn't expand and contract to nearly the same degree as more traditional

00:40:17.839 --> 00:40:24.040
normal Metals do so when you heat it up and do something with it it's not going

00:40:21.920 --> 00:40:28.040
to just contract and deform and and do something stupid so we could be looking

00:40:25.760 --> 00:40:31.839
at some extremely beautiful Innovative designs with liquid metal but beyond it

00:40:30.560 --> 00:40:35.440
being a little bit more difficult to scratch and

00:40:33.560 --> 00:40:38.440
lightweight probably isn't going to make that much of a day-to-day difference and

00:40:36.800 --> 00:40:43.400
they're probably not going to go way off the wall with it either I don't expect

00:40:40.960 --> 00:40:46.680
Apple to come with some like crazy weird liquid metal design that can only be

00:40:45.119 --> 00:40:50.880
achieved by using liquid metal yeah they'll probably honest because Apple's

00:40:48.880 --> 00:40:54.000
design first implementation second so they'll figure out what they want to

00:40:52.040 --> 00:40:56.680
make and then if liquid metal is the easiest way to do it then they'll do it

00:40:55.400 --> 00:41:02.599
I mean they've been experimenting with it for a while back in the iPhone 3G

00:40:59.280 --> 00:41:05.640
days some of the Sim removal trays were

00:41:02.599 --> 00:41:08.800
liquid metal and probably people never

00:41:05.640 --> 00:41:10.960
even thought about it or noticed or knew

00:41:08.800 --> 00:41:15.359
and all they were doing was kind of playing kind of trying it

00:41:13.520 --> 00:41:18.800
yeah yeah you got to wonder how often crap like that goes on you just have no

00:41:17.520 --> 00:41:23.440
idea what you actually yeah that's probably true because we heard so many rumors about it back then it was such a

00:41:22.119 --> 00:41:27.800
big deal for like a little while and then it just never really became a thing

00:41:25.520 --> 00:41:34.359
so it faded away this is really cool I'm going to highlight

00:41:29.599 --> 00:41:37.319
it yes um so the rumor is that we could

00:41:34.359 --> 00:41:42.079
be looking at a sapphire glass screen so to to just explain what Sapphire or

00:41:39.880 --> 00:41:45.720
Sapphire sapphire crystal glass screen whatever you want to call it sapphire

00:41:43.119 --> 00:41:50.160
crystal screen so to be clear a sapphire crystal screen is going to be more

00:41:47.680 --> 00:41:56.440
difficult to scratch than the current weapon of choice Gorilla Glass 3 from

00:41:52.839 --> 00:41:58.400
Corning but Corning actually had a

00:41:56.440 --> 00:42:05.079
conference called earlier this month it was about 2 and a half weeks ago

00:42:02.000 --> 00:42:07.880
where I mean analysts were trying to

00:42:05.079 --> 00:42:12.760
kind of pick at them basically they're trying to figure out what the upcoming

00:42:09.920 --> 00:42:17.240
iPhone will use because Corning would obviously be privy to what kind of glass

00:42:15.560 --> 00:42:21.160
apple is ordering and if they saw a sudden dramatic decline in shipments

00:42:19.640 --> 00:42:25.040
compared to what they normally get when there's an upcoming iPhone then they'd

00:42:23.440 --> 00:42:27.680
kind of figure out okay I guess they're not using Gorilla Glass 3 this time

00:42:26.800 --> 00:42:33.680
around um so what Corning had to say about sapphire glass is that it's about 10

00:42:31.760 --> 00:42:36.839
times the price and yes it is more expensive right now it's a lot more

00:42:35.440 --> 00:42:41.040
expensive and less environmentally friendly to produce due to the energy

00:42:38.800 --> 00:42:46.520
involved and the amount of time it takes to build the large paines of it and it

00:42:44.240 --> 00:42:52.520
is while more scratch resistant not necessarily able to take more pressure

00:42:49.720 --> 00:42:55.240
although one of the things that um the I didn't actually read the entire

00:42:53.880 --> 00:42:59.240
transcript of the call but one of the things the summary didn't mention was

00:42:57.240 --> 00:43:02.760
impact resistance and that's something I think most people would actually be more

00:43:00.920 --> 00:43:07.599
concerned about what than pressure I would be way more concerned about impact

00:43:04.319 --> 00:43:11.000
than pressure what about Impact versus

00:43:07.599 --> 00:43:13.920
scratching probably be more looking at

00:43:11.000 --> 00:43:17.839
the things I've seen happen to iPhones or any other phone I mean or any other

00:43:15.640 --> 00:43:20.640
phone probably impact right because you can kind of deal with scratching but

00:43:19.240 --> 00:43:24.040
when the entire face of your phone becomes in not usable because you

00:43:22.480 --> 00:43:29.119
dropped it from a foot and it just landed at a really weird angle I don't

00:43:26.720 --> 00:43:33.720
know not very cool well at any rate Corning um obviously is going to be

00:43:32.200 --> 00:43:38.319
defensive of Gorilla Glass they did say they have a new Gorilla Glass coming

00:43:35.559 --> 00:43:44.280
sometime in 2014 Gorilla Glass 4 so that'll probably have their

00:43:40.440 --> 00:43:46.520
antimicrobial um the like the agent inte

00:43:44.280 --> 00:43:49.559
saw yeah very cool um so that'll probably have that maybe it'll be even

00:43:47.920 --> 00:43:53.520
stronger and thinner oh they also said that gill glass is lighter I think it's

00:43:51.280 --> 00:43:56.720
something like 60% lighter or something like that um so although with how much

00:43:55.480 --> 00:44:02.800
lighter phones have been getting I don't think that's it's going to be a huge deal here's what Corning said um we

00:44:00.920 --> 00:44:07.599
don't know what kind of glass Apple's using but our forecast is still 30%

00:44:06.119 --> 00:44:15.119
growth blah blah blah blah blah so whatever they're using won't have any impact on our volumes so whatever that

00:44:12.160 --> 00:44:19.839
means that's weird yeah uh the camera on the iPhone 6 is rumored to be up to 13

00:44:17.640 --> 00:44:23.119
megapixels although the actual megapixels are not nearly as important

00:44:21.960 --> 00:44:28.960
as some of the other Innovations we've seen in cameras over the last little while like the Dual LED flashes for a

00:44:27.400 --> 00:44:36.920
more for more balanced skin tone and stuff like that okay ha I called this what yep I

00:44:35.760 --> 00:44:42.160
know what you're going to bring into now I'm not even at the right article but

00:44:38.760 --> 00:44:44.480
it's yep I called this so hard the

00:44:42.160 --> 00:44:49.800
iPhone is or the iPhone the iome is coming Apple just patented A system that

00:44:46.880 --> 00:44:56.000
could put Siri in charge of your home we should have seen this coming I did no

00:44:52.680 --> 00:44:58.240
but like this level of it this looks

00:44:56.000 --> 00:45:04.240
absolutely fantastic fantastic actually to the point where like if some like it

00:45:01.000 --> 00:45:06.480
is not going to come down to Moto 360

00:45:04.240 --> 00:45:11.240
versus Pebble and it's not going to come down to iPhone versus HTC1 it is going

00:45:09.520 --> 00:45:16.040
to come down to whoever can build the best ecosystem that makes it so that

00:45:13.960 --> 00:45:19.079
your life is augmented in meaningful ways and then that watch will go along

00:45:17.760 --> 00:45:23.559
with it and then that you'll buy whatever watch goes with it if I'm if

00:45:21.440 --> 00:45:27.520
the watch that when I'm sitting on my couch being a potato for too long says

00:45:26.640 --> 00:45:31.359
hey you're at like a super low like resting

00:45:29.880 --> 00:45:36.000
heart rate have you even done anything in the last three days get your ass up

00:45:33.960 --> 00:45:41.480
go for a run and then when I get in my car it's like yo dog I said go for a run

00:45:38.839 --> 00:45:45.359
not go for a drive like when we get something that's that intelligent I mean

00:45:43.599 --> 00:45:52.040
a I haven't seen it yet have you seen her who her her the movie yes you have

00:45:50.040 --> 00:45:55.040
yes I have so I haven't seen I haven't seen it yet but like that because I've

00:45:53.640 --> 00:45:58.960
seen trailers is that what you're kind of talking about where it can like converse with you because that's

00:45:57.520 --> 00:46:03.160
essentially what you're just doing even without the conversation even without

00:46:00.760 --> 00:46:06.839
the conversational aspect something that really looks for patterns in your

00:46:04.680 --> 00:46:10.800
behavior and if you give it a set of goals like look I want to be more active

00:46:09.359 --> 00:46:15.920
I want to be more active I want to lose 10 pounds some people aren't going to want you some people won't want that and

00:46:14.160 --> 00:46:21.280
some people will be absolutely terrified by this and if I was smart I would be

00:46:17.440 --> 00:46:23.000
too because this level of of being aware

00:46:21.280 --> 00:46:27.800
of what you're doing and where you are and what you're saying at any given time

00:46:25.200 --> 00:46:35.119
is is is just AB scary but in terms of an enjoyable

00:46:32.000 --> 00:46:37.440
lifestyle if I were to just block it

00:46:35.119 --> 00:46:41.440
from my mind and not worry about the fact that someone else is watching what

00:46:38.559 --> 00:46:45.800
I'm doing um I think it could seriously enhance my life anyway we've got I'm I'm

00:46:43.240 --> 00:46:50.559
excited for this type of stuff um I'm jumping ideas again but like what with

00:46:48.839 --> 00:46:54.000
Google just did where they're encrypting your email all over yeah I was going to

00:46:52.520 --> 00:46:57.960
jump into that topic next for sure yeah so they're they're encrypting your email

00:46:55.520 --> 00:47:03.960
all over the freaking place I'm excited for more personalized style Cloud more

00:47:02.000 --> 00:47:08.359
personalized style services and something like this where maybe you get

00:47:06.000 --> 00:47:13.079
like the Siri box which sits in the closet in your house and just has

00:47:10.520 --> 00:47:17.800
storage and compute and connectivity and everything and then it's all your own

00:47:15.760 --> 00:47:22.000
stuff and it's encrypted everywhere like crazy because

00:47:19.680 --> 00:47:26.480
then the is probably still going to find a way to get it I don't think either

00:47:24.480 --> 00:47:31.599
Apple or Google with the way that they value your information is ever going to

00:47:28.240 --> 00:47:34.440
offer that to you yeah but then they'll

00:47:31.599 --> 00:47:37.119
take it but then no one else okay and you're going to have to figure out which

00:47:35.319 --> 00:47:43.599
one you're okay with having all of your data Apple's got a reasonably okay

00:47:40.240 --> 00:47:46.160
history of privacy protection actually

00:47:43.599 --> 00:47:50.079
yeah like neither of them are super scary Google's becoming more scary yeah

00:47:48.599 --> 00:47:54.640
I was just going to say Google's getting kind of scary lately I I was on the

00:47:52.480 --> 00:47:59.280
Google train pretty hard probably about a year ago maybe a little bit more and

00:47:57.000 --> 00:48:03.000
I've dropped off pretty heavily cuz a a lot of their services are just kind of

00:48:00.760 --> 00:48:06.480
becoming junk just putting that out there they're getting worse not better

00:48:04.920 --> 00:48:11.079
you know what's really funny I've noticed that like half of my calendar

00:48:08.760 --> 00:48:14.839
notifications don't pop up anymore and I'm just like things just seem to be

00:48:12.720 --> 00:48:19.040
getting that's weird things just seem to be getting worse I haven't seen

00:48:17.040 --> 00:48:23.240
something from them in so long I know right oh major Geeks all right so let's

00:48:21.720 --> 00:48:27.920
move into our next topic this is a positive thing about Google though so

00:48:24.760 --> 00:48:29.640
the article is on majorgeeks.com

00:48:27.920 --> 00:48:33.240
this is definitely man I used to love this website I know I used to be on here

00:48:31.079 --> 00:48:39.920
all the time downloading my future marks yeah man yeah man like any game patches

00:48:36.400 --> 00:48:42.079
are always on here yeah dog all right uh

00:48:39.920 --> 00:48:44.880
sorry yeah so like this is definitely Improvement I know I just said

00:48:43.720 --> 00:48:50.400
everything's getting worse but this is definitely getting cutter okay so let's talk about what what's going on here so

00:48:48.200 --> 00:48:55.240
Google Gmail has announced that they are quote quote staying at the Forefront of

00:48:52.520 --> 00:49:00.839
email security and reliability by using an encrypted https connect ction when

00:48:57.520 --> 00:49:03.480
you check or send email the fact that

00:49:00.839 --> 00:49:08.359
the option to turn off https will no longer be available will help users

00:49:05.520 --> 00:49:15.040
thwart the prying eyes of any number of wouldbe snoopers so is this is this like

00:49:12.520 --> 00:49:18.119
is this the transition to the Future where everyone starts to hate government

00:49:16.559 --> 00:49:25.319
and government kind of seems to go away and then it's just like what corporate team are you

00:49:21.000 --> 00:49:28.280
on cuz like in every video game and a

00:49:25.319 --> 00:49:34.040
lot of future Style movies it's always these like giant mega Corps like by and

00:49:31.240 --> 00:49:38.280
large that actually run everything and then like governments either just don't

00:49:35.920 --> 00:49:42.240
exist or just don't matter well you look at how little uh apparently the

00:49:40.520 --> 00:49:48.920
government matters in Ohio because the car dealerships are running Automotive

00:49:45.280 --> 00:49:51.359
legislation so is this the future or was

00:49:48.920 --> 00:49:55.440
it yesterday D yeah I don't know which would be

00:49:53.280 --> 00:49:59.240
funnier if it wasn't actually something that's deeply concerning seriously

00:49:57.160 --> 00:50:03.559
because like and something that we just talked about which is how we were

00:50:00.799 --> 00:50:10.160
talking about how we might be more happy with uh Google or Apple having our data

00:50:06.680 --> 00:50:12.839
than the NSA truthfully yep yeah

00:50:10.160 --> 00:50:19.920
particular particularly Apple I would I would gladly hand over the keys to you

00:50:16.480 --> 00:50:21.559
know like my life to Apple compared to

00:50:19.920 --> 00:50:25.400
if you had to the government yeah if I had to choose if it was if it was like

00:50:23.200 --> 00:50:30.760
gun to your head you pick one I'll hand it to Apple versus someone else because

00:50:27.960 --> 00:50:36.160
Apple has my best interest at heart because they need my money yeah all of

00:50:33.440 --> 00:50:40.280
your money but that's the difference between a government and a company is

00:50:38.400 --> 00:50:43.640
that I have to voluntarily give Apple my money which is yeah that's a big deal

00:50:42.000 --> 00:50:46.680
and that's what drives this corruption in the government is that I have to give

00:50:45.319 --> 00:50:51.359
them my money whether I'm happy with what they're doing or not if I actually

00:50:48.960 --> 00:50:55.200
had to give them my money because I was pleased with what they were doing that

00:50:53.280 --> 00:51:01.280
would be a completely I I suspect we'd see them behave in a much more consumer

00:50:57.520 --> 00:51:03.599
much more populace friendly manner so

00:51:01.280 --> 00:51:11.599
while I'm not while while I don't think that Mega corporations are necessarily

00:51:06.440 --> 00:51:13.839
you know perfect cuz they're not no no

00:51:11.599 --> 00:51:16.960
is would we rather have a mega corporation that calls itself the

00:51:15.359 --> 00:51:25.079
government I mean did you see that recent Scandal over the um shoot what it

00:51:20.680 --> 00:51:26.200
was it Canadian Metals Millions wasted

00:51:25.079 --> 00:51:32.720
I'm going to I'm going to see if I can find it um but like the the Canadian government

00:51:30.640 --> 00:51:37.520
wasted some ludicrous amount of money awarding medals to like members of the

00:51:34.960 --> 00:51:40.799
government for whatever they were doing some guy won like three and refused them

00:51:39.440 --> 00:51:45.040
all because he was like looking at this program going this is absolutely obscene

00:51:42.920 --> 00:51:49.160
how many millions of dollars of taxpayer money did you spend on like patting

00:51:47.160 --> 00:51:53.640
ourselves on the back for doing a good job are you

00:51:50.799 --> 00:51:56.680
insane um wish I could find it right now I I've never heard of this actually but

00:51:55.119 --> 00:52:02.839
that's super yeah I was on the news a little while ago and I just kind of remember watching it and I was just like

00:51:59.559 --> 00:52:05.440
really oh holy

00:52:02.839 --> 00:52:11.920
crap it's kind of depressing I don't know like I can't imagine a company that

00:52:09.240 --> 00:52:16.240
actually has to make its own money doing something that stupid yeah it's not

00:52:14.760 --> 00:52:19.720
going to work or they're going to do I've you know what okay I've seen that

00:52:18.520 --> 00:52:25.599
um challenge coins if you heard of challenge coins you know what challenge coins are like military challenge coins

00:52:22.599 --> 00:52:27.720
and stuff like if you're in a a military

00:52:25.599 --> 00:52:30.760
division possible that they will have what's called a challenge coin challenge

00:52:29.280 --> 00:52:36.920
coins are a very old thing they go really far back when I was in Korea um

00:52:34.079 --> 00:52:40.480
when edzel and I were doing our like Changing of the Guard thing did you hear

00:52:38.520 --> 00:52:42.559
about that or see those pictures I heard you guys told me about it yeah yeah when

00:52:41.640 --> 00:52:47.040
we're doing The Changing of the Guard thing there was a challenge coin ceremony okay to connect the coin or

00:52:45.319 --> 00:52:51.559
whatever but the like more modern challenge coins like say you're a part of the 501 you better explain what the

00:52:49.920 --> 00:52:55.520
hell of challenge coin is I'm probably not the only one who has no idea what you're talking about talk you get some

00:52:53.799 --> 00:52:59.880
sort of coin you can probably Google it really easily you get a coin and then

00:52:57.920 --> 00:53:03.000
it's very specific and if someone asks you for it you have to produce it and

00:53:01.160 --> 00:53:08.160
then it has to match theirs so you know you're a part of the same crew okay um

00:53:06.119 --> 00:53:10.480
obviously there's inherent issues where you could like kill someone and take

00:53:09.359 --> 00:53:15.599
theirs and then be like hey I'm a part of your group but this is like a very

00:53:12.559 --> 00:53:18.079
old system and challenge coins now are

00:53:15.599 --> 00:53:21.720
just kind of like really cool and I know like there's a corporation on Eve that

00:53:19.960 --> 00:53:25.160
got uh a whole bunch of funing together and got their own challenge coins

00:53:23.079 --> 00:53:29.000
because they're they just look amazing uh I wonder if I can find that

00:53:30.480 --> 00:53:37.359
article challenge coin Eve yep if you just Google challenge coin Eve the like

00:53:35.599 --> 00:53:42.960
first thing on there will show the guy and then if you find it somewhere in the comments he has a picture of his and it

00:53:39.640 --> 00:53:44.040
just looks like super cool right um I

00:53:42.960 --> 00:53:48.760
can't remember where I was going for this what were we talking about for challenge points right okay so and I've

00:53:46.760 --> 00:53:53.200
heard of some corporations giving like okay all of the executives give get

00:53:50.559 --> 00:53:57.440
challenge coins but this is like you buy the mold which is like 500 bucks and

00:53:55.440 --> 00:54:02.960
then each coin is like $6 right does not cost a whole bunch of

00:54:00.799 --> 00:54:05.960
money they're not giving like trophies and medals and all this kind of stuff

00:54:04.319 --> 00:54:09.280
and even if they do there's probably some sort of actually really good reason

00:54:07.760 --> 00:54:15.319
behind it and they'll probably do it in a somewhat reasonable and financially

00:54:11.200 --> 00:54:17.920
responsible way I like I like uh cric's

00:54:15.319 --> 00:54:24.240
skills challenge coins please I got doge coins oh oh snap did you even find

00:54:21.359 --> 00:54:28.799
pictures of challenge coins uh no I was I was looking for the stupid award

00:54:26.480 --> 00:54:32.720
medals that were ridiculous I couldn't find them though but like there there's

00:54:30.000 --> 00:54:35.280
reasons to give people awards but you're not supposed to spend all of your money

00:54:34.160 --> 00:54:40.119
on it that's the whole point of giving someone an award is it's not a monetary

00:54:38.359 --> 00:54:45.799
award yeah like you got a Christmas bonus yeah but it wasn't the entire

00:54:42.880 --> 00:54:49.200
profit of the company for 2013 yeah and it's like it's it's supposed to like

00:54:47.720 --> 00:54:52.799
make you happy and drive you to work harder like that's the idea of rewards

00:54:51.200 --> 00:54:56.160
not like here we just spent all of our money I just wanted you to think of me

00:54:54.440 --> 00:55:00.760
when you're not working every time you make food you have to think of me and

00:54:57.640 --> 00:55:03.280
every time I play Wii U

00:55:00.760 --> 00:55:09.359
yep isn't that depressing well I work all the time

00:55:05.799 --> 00:55:10.760
posted by so it's kind of have to yeah I

00:55:09.359 --> 00:55:15.680
don't know so basically it hasn't Chang so even when I'm on

00:55:15.680 --> 00:55:21.680
lunch so Ashley posted on the Forum in

00:55:18.920 --> 00:55:25.839
home streaming beta update March 17th this was posted by

00:55:23.319 --> 00:55:31.119
slen and actually I got an opportunity to chat with with him for about an hour

00:55:28.520 --> 00:55:37.280
on Steam Chat um earlier this week which was really cool and um I found out that

00:55:34.359 --> 00:55:42.799
he's like the main guy who's working on Steam in home streaming we chatted and I

00:55:40.680 --> 00:55:46.079
actually had a really cool experience where he was talking to me about

00:55:44.160 --> 00:55:50.400
something like blah blah blah you know a year ago I was kind of you know thinking

00:55:48.760 --> 00:55:54.680
about this this was percolating in my mind and I was like you know what it's

00:55:53.119 --> 00:56:01.760
funny cuz it must have been about a year ago my co-host in I were sitting in my

00:55:57.920 --> 00:56:03.839
garage talking about um NVIDIA grid and

00:56:01.760 --> 00:56:09.000
how we wanted like a centralized streaming device within our homes that

00:56:06.520 --> 00:56:12.920
would turn anything from a computer like a normal desktop computer to a Raspberry

00:56:10.720 --> 00:56:17.599
Pi into a full-fledged gaming system and I went looking for the article and it

00:56:14.599 --> 00:56:19.599
had been it was one year exactly prior

00:56:17.599 --> 00:56:24.319
because NVIDIA had announced it at GDC the prior the previous year and U like I

00:56:22.599 --> 00:56:28.520
sent him the link to the timestamp within what was before called live

00:56:26.000 --> 00:56:32.760
stream but it's now W show and as he's watching it he's like yeah man you were

00:56:30.319 --> 00:56:37.319
like right on like like way ahead of your time but like imagine this blah

00:56:34.960 --> 00:56:41.240
blah blah like raspberry piie and then like 30 seconds later he gets to the

00:56:39.039 --> 00:56:45.240
point in the video where I'm like blah blah blah raspberry pie imagine you know

00:56:43.559 --> 00:56:50.119
you could have a land just by everyone bringing over like you know their their

00:56:48.039 --> 00:56:53.960
favorite peripherals and like raspberry pies and like boom you're set up and

00:56:52.160 --> 00:56:57.559
like with stuff like Oculus which I wasn't even talking about at the time

00:56:55.319 --> 00:57:01.119
all of a sudden you're displays here all you need is like a game controller and a

00:56:59.640 --> 00:57:07.680
Raspberry Pi and everyone could be running like seriously HD Plus graphics

00:57:04.720 --> 00:57:12.640
on their heads I mean sitting okay tell me this is VR Gaming with a group of

00:57:10.359 --> 00:57:16.319
people socializing okay hold on that might be a

00:57:14.480 --> 00:57:18.760
whole separate topic yeah yeah but anyway they added a bunch of really cool

00:57:17.760 --> 00:57:22.839
stuff so that was a really cool conversation with him super cool guy uh

00:57:21.400 --> 00:57:27.720
he talked a little bit about what it's like working for the almighty Lord and

00:57:24.799 --> 00:57:30.520
Savior gab Ben and uh how you know he like came in like right when he first

00:57:29.200 --> 00:57:35.440
started he's only been there about a year which is really cool yeah he went

00:57:32.400 --> 00:57:37.799
from like not working there to like

00:57:35.440 --> 00:57:41.799
creating one of the headline features of Steam OS in my mind in like a year

00:57:40.400 --> 00:57:45.960
welcome to being a valve employee exactly so he walked into gab Ben's office and he was like yeah this would

00:57:44.160 --> 00:57:49.319
be really cool and gab Ben's like go build it and he's just like oh no I

00:57:48.200 --> 00:57:54.160
don't feel ready yet so he went and worked on TF2 for a couple months and

00:57:51.280 --> 00:58:00.079
then did some work on Steam OS and then like had another conversation with with

00:57:56.359 --> 00:58:02.440
men who he calls Gabe but I feel not

00:58:00.079 --> 00:58:05.839
worthy um so he had another conversation he's like yeah I really want to try this

00:58:03.880 --> 00:58:10.559
and he's like make it so and so he started trying he started out trying to

00:58:07.720 --> 00:58:15.559
prove that inhome streaming wasn't possible and it kept not kept on he kept

00:58:13.160 --> 00:58:20.599
on like fixing it kept not working or kept working yeah the

00:58:18.240 --> 00:58:24.440
disproving kept not working to the point where now we have this very usable

00:58:22.319 --> 00:58:28.079
service and this latest batch of improvements looks pretty darn

00:58:25.599 --> 00:58:32.319
impressive Hardware accelerated encoding via quick sync quick sync isn't the best

00:58:30.319 --> 00:58:36.720
quality encoding in the world but what it is is extremely fast which is what

00:58:34.480 --> 00:58:39.280
you need and on pretty much any Intel processor in the last couple of

00:58:38.240 --> 00:58:45.400
generations as long as you're on a mainstream platform they also added Mouse emulation mode for controllers

00:58:42.720 --> 00:58:48.240
toggled with guide a there were oh see ah see now okay I'm just going to go

00:58:47.079 --> 00:58:55.119
through this list because I talked to him bu about a bunch of other crap that

00:58:51.480 --> 00:58:57.200
like is not on this list and so maybe

00:58:55.119 --> 00:59:00.079
shouldn't Cod want to accidentally talk about anything that's like going to be a

00:58:58.720 --> 00:59:04.319
problem for don't bring that bridge before we get to go to valve yeah yeah

00:59:02.160 --> 00:59:08.119
yeah okay something I did talk to him about is like could we maybe like get an

00:59:06.599 --> 00:59:13.200
invite down there at some point and he didn't promise anything but like he

00:59:10.839 --> 00:59:17.920
really liked our video about in streaming so seriously I think it like

00:59:15.480 --> 00:59:23.359
made his month that's good to have us make that video and like get it and we

00:59:20.280 --> 00:59:25.079
want to do an update just not now necess

00:59:23.359 --> 00:59:29.960
I'll probably wait till it's out of beta um the other really cool stuff that they

00:59:26.520 --> 00:59:32.160
added is a 30 megabit bandwidth option

00:59:29.960 --> 00:59:36.440
which was before the maximum with an unlimited bandwidth option that's been

00:59:33.599 --> 00:59:40.039
increased to 100 megabit so we could be seeing better image quality we wanted

00:59:38.880 --> 00:59:44.160
that that's something we noticed when we were testing um settings to uh enable

00:59:42.720 --> 00:59:48.760
traffic quality of service priority in the advanced host options um honestly

00:59:46.480 --> 00:59:51.599
it's getting better like almost daily that was one of the challenges when I

00:59:49.920 --> 00:59:54.640
was benchmarking it was the and I told him this I was like dude the bloody

00:59:53.000 --> 00:59:58.760
thing was changing while I was trying to test it I I managed to find like two

00:59:57.119 --> 01:00:03.240
days where you didn't do an update and I got my video done and then it updated

01:00:00.400 --> 01:00:08.839
the next day and he was just like like Colon

01:00:05.599 --> 01:00:08.839
D thank

01:00:08.920 --> 01:00:14.599
you work too hard for some reason I signed out of my Google doc anyway in

01:00:12.799 --> 01:00:18.119
home streaming got an update so that was that was the point of all that we can

01:00:16.000 --> 01:00:24.680
stay on the valve idea yeah let's let's ride the valve train to like gaming

01:00:21.880 --> 01:00:28.480
Enlightenment station I'm so free to play I'm finally almost done Portal 2

01:00:27.240 --> 01:00:31.960
finally I thought you said you were finally done portal I thought I was I

01:00:30.640 --> 01:00:36.520
have played like another two and a half hours I thought I was close to the end but I wasn't portals like that though

01:00:34.960 --> 01:00:41.559
yeah portal makes you think you're like done and then it's just like oh nope by

01:00:38.599 --> 01:00:44.640
the way no yeah um so yeah I'm still really enjoying it though it's fantastic

01:00:43.160 --> 01:00:50.280
but I can't start Bravely Default till I'm done Portal 2 I'm determined to finish it first yeah so what valve news

01:00:49.359 --> 01:00:57.760
do you want to do there's actually a bunch yeah I know it's like how much ass

01:00:54.680 --> 01:01:00.359
can we kiss

01:00:57.760 --> 01:01:05.599
you know what okay let's let's not let's not kiss up let's let's do let's do like

01:01:02.760 --> 01:01:09.839
brutal valve news first okay look who doesn't hate Apple the one and only gab

01:01:07.920 --> 01:01:13.960
Ben I don't know why this was okay holding an iPhone and an iPad we don't

01:01:12.359 --> 01:01:18.680
know who this guy is but I just thought this fun some dude on Reddit um I I

01:01:16.240 --> 01:01:24.520
don't know like I just think it's funny Steam Works on Mac I know like they they

01:01:22.280 --> 01:01:29.119
like push Mac support yeah g man openly is hating on Windows lately not OS 10

01:01:27.599 --> 01:01:34.160
and not not Linux that's why I was like why is everyone so surprised oh I just

01:01:32.480 --> 01:01:38.760
well it's kind of like it's kind of funny it's probably not a matter of them

01:01:35.680 --> 01:01:42.119
being surprised as more a matter of the

01:01:38.760 --> 01:01:43.920
internet has like a culture like and

01:01:42.119 --> 01:01:49.200
it's like there's like the internet culture and then there's like the internet Counter Culture you know and so

01:01:47.280 --> 01:01:53.680
the internet culture went on this like apple thing and then like Android became

01:01:51.039 --> 01:01:57.440
the counterculture and then when Android goes mainstream everyone will probably

01:01:55.520 --> 01:02:01.119
want the cool kids on the internet will probably shift to something else and so

01:01:59.240 --> 01:02:05.319
the cool kids on the internet right now ourselves included are all running

01:02:03.160 --> 01:02:09.480
Android and expect that anyone who is a tweaker or like an Enthusiast is going

01:02:08.039 --> 01:02:15.720
to be doing the same thing but he's an Enthusiast about other stuff he's not really a mobile PL I and a lot of game

01:02:13.000 --> 01:02:20.359
developers use apple just throwing that out there like that's a thing um and uh

01:02:18.799 --> 01:02:24.160
but yeah but that's I think why people found it so surprising was because they

01:02:21.839 --> 01:02:27.920
would have expected him to be on whatever sort of the internet bandwagon

01:02:25.680 --> 01:02:33.039
is I just I just personally don't care as long as his desktop that he's doing

01:02:29.680 --> 01:02:34.720
all of his like work for Steam on is

01:02:33.039 --> 01:02:40.279
actually it's not even probably he probably has a Mac so that he can work

01:02:36.720 --> 01:02:42.440
on stuff for Steam on Mac he probably

01:02:40.279 --> 01:02:45.119
has both it's it's gab Ben I fully expect him to have both I don't know I

01:02:44.079 --> 01:02:50.559
didn't think this was that yeah he's worth like over a billion dollars or something so I think if he multiple of

01:02:48.720 --> 01:02:56.480
both if he felt like having a Mac Pro I think it's a non-issue yeah okay uh

01:02:53.920 --> 01:03:00.680
let's get into the new steam controller which is no longer

01:02:58.520 --> 01:03:03.279
interesting still kind of interesting oh come on now we knew exactly what these

01:03:02.079 --> 01:03:07.640
buttons were though which was kind of cool remember we called it out we were like the the ones on the right are going

01:03:06.200 --> 01:03:11.240
to be abxy and the ones on the left are going to be Arrow buttons oh it's going

01:03:09.440 --> 01:03:14.880
to be essentially a d-pad we said that and when they were unlabeled and now

01:03:12.559 --> 01:03:18.559
they're like Boop Arrow buttons make for a terrible d-pad and valves should know

01:03:17.079 --> 01:03:22.319
better that's all I'll say about the design I'll let you launch into what you

01:03:20.160 --> 01:03:25.520
think about it I hate that but no one other than Nintendo has seemingly been

01:03:24.240 --> 01:03:29.079
able to figure out d-pads in the last little while while even Nintendo

01:03:27.760 --> 01:03:33.760
actually the one on the Wii was okay the one on the Wii Moe is actually not bad

01:03:31.039 --> 01:03:37.359
um so like I don't know what's going on there maybe people just suck at making

01:03:35.279 --> 01:03:40.920
d-pads nowadays but I don't know if maybe that has something to do with it

01:03:38.720 --> 01:03:44.760
they don't like the D but I I would still rather a d-pad even if it was kind

01:03:42.960 --> 01:03:49.039
of a crappy d-pad then buttons because it's just weird and I want a d-pad it's

01:03:47.319 --> 01:03:53.079
still different because it has the touchcreen areas and it's still going to

01:03:51.240 --> 01:03:58.960
enable you to play still not sold on those I'm not either um but it's still

01:03:56.720 --> 01:04:05.520
different you know I think I would actually rather some totally janky

01:04:02.119 --> 01:04:07.520
solution like a couchmaster versus being

01:04:05.520 --> 01:04:13.079
stuck gaming with touchpads even if I was playing Civ

01:04:10.000 --> 01:04:14.880
5 when's the last time you had an

01:04:13.079 --> 01:04:18.440
opportunity to game on your notebook and you didn't just go to the extra effort

01:04:16.920 --> 01:04:24.359
to go find a mouse gaming on a touchpad is terrible

01:04:21.559 --> 01:04:28.359
yeah but then like I don't know it's terrible yeah it is

01:04:26.440 --> 01:04:34.279
it's terrible the only reason why I always use the Civ 5 one is like I could

01:04:30.640 --> 01:04:35.440
I could also say XCOM the new XCOM game

01:04:34.279 --> 01:04:41.000
you could probably do it fairly easily with a touchpad but you know what I guarantee it works great with anything

01:04:39.319 --> 01:04:46.240
that isn't a touchpad as well because that's just how that game is set up

01:04:43.079 --> 01:04:49.000
right um so Civ is Civ is really the

01:04:46.240 --> 01:04:53.119
champion for this controller but yeah I don't know I don't care like I'm going

01:04:51.279 --> 01:04:56.000
to play Civ on my desktop because I'm going to be playing with other people

01:04:54.680 --> 01:05:00.799
and then it's going to go so slow that I'm going to Tab out in between turns

01:04:57.920 --> 01:05:04.240
anyways so like so I can do other things so I I don't really see it being that

01:05:02.079 --> 01:05:08.240
big of a deal given valves openness what I would like to see because I I've held

01:05:06.160 --> 01:05:13.160
the controller ergonomically I don't I don't have you know a ton of complaints

01:05:10.559 --> 01:05:17.200
about it um I would like to see someone just adopt their design and get rid of

01:05:14.960 --> 01:05:21.079
the touch pads and throw like joysticks in there because if you were to do that

01:05:19.319 --> 01:05:25.160
and put a proper d-pad on it then all of a sudden now we've got some buttons on

01:05:22.880 --> 01:05:30.559
the back chang everything except for the buttons on the back the thing that goes

01:05:26.920 --> 01:05:32.000
in your palm and the abxy buttons or we

01:05:30.559 --> 01:05:38.119
could all just go back to using SNES controllers because they're clearly Superior to everything else Xbox 360

01:05:36.160 --> 01:05:41.279
Xbox 360 is okay but the d-pad is terrible yeah but you've got thumb

01:05:39.720 --> 01:05:45.039
sticks you got thumb sticks but that's not great for

01:05:42.799 --> 01:05:49.160
platforming for platforming that's all you want screw you I like platforming no

01:05:47.680 --> 01:05:53.559
I play platforms all the time I'm just saying that's all you want to do that's

01:05:51.480 --> 01:05:58.480
literally the only reason why you care I also still use a d-pad for other

01:05:56.279 --> 01:06:05.760
and Okay and like you know what okay the shield I just traded you yeah um has

01:06:01.559 --> 01:06:06.960
kind of a kind of a crappy uh a button

01:06:05.760 --> 01:06:13.880
like it kind of sticks a bit did you notice already a little bit but it's like it's not that bad yeah I know but

01:06:10.520 --> 01:06:15.720
it has a better d-pad than mine it's I

01:06:13.880 --> 01:06:19.839
like the d-pad the d-pad is okay mine's very clicky I haven't played with it a

01:06:17.359 --> 01:06:24.319
lot yet I only played uh one game in for not very long have you tried using gam

01:06:21.960 --> 01:06:30.000
stream on it yet yes oh but your wireless is terrible in your place isn't

01:06:26.440 --> 01:06:32.880
it um yes but I did upstairs there's a

01:06:30.000 --> 01:06:37.039
dlink router in my car I did it like it's an AC dual band router I did it

01:06:34.720 --> 01:06:39.839
close to the router right U when I was doing actual game stream and then I

01:06:38.200 --> 01:06:44.559
ended up just watching a movie on it off my Nest right CU I was like this makes

01:06:41.960 --> 01:06:48.400
sense yep you know what's funny the funny thing about Shield is I think

01:06:46.319 --> 01:06:52.760
people didn't understand what it was and I think that's a lot of the hate people

01:06:50.160 --> 01:06:55.839
were like it's a game console and that's what NVIDIA is pushing but I actually

01:06:54.279 --> 01:06:58.760
disagree and then people were like oh I'd rather

01:06:57.279 --> 01:07:05.039
game on my phone and I went well no this isn't a phone it's a tablet that's what

01:07:01.559 --> 01:07:06.599
it is it's a small tablet and what makes

01:07:05.039 --> 01:07:11.799
it a tablet is not the size of the screen what makes it a tablet is the way

01:07:09.640 --> 01:07:17.640
that it comes with a stand in it that's the funny thing to me about it

01:07:14.480 --> 01:07:19.960
the reason I completely stopped using my

01:07:17.640 --> 01:07:23.559
iPad and started using my shield for everything I used to use my iPad all the

01:07:21.720 --> 01:07:30.039
time almost every day now I use my shield almost every day is because it

01:07:26.119 --> 01:07:31.680
sits on this controller thing yeah that

01:07:30.039 --> 01:07:35.920
that I can like I can put it next to the bath or if I'm cooking it's always got

01:07:34.200 --> 01:07:40.240
to it's always got to stand on it and how you can integrate like uh I haven't

01:07:38.039 --> 01:07:43.880
been a huge push of Shield before but now I've actually had some extended Ed

01:07:41.640 --> 01:07:50.799
with it which is really nice um how they actually integrated using like d-pad and

01:07:46.240 --> 01:07:52.319
abxy buttons in the OS yes is freakishly

01:07:50.799 --> 01:07:57.160
good yeah it's really good like I assumed it was going to be terrible and I was just going be touching everything

01:07:54.799 --> 01:08:02.720
and I started that way and then I just like instinctively pressed B and was

01:07:59.279 --> 01:08:04.400
like what yeah that works the UI is

01:08:02.720 --> 01:08:08.160
really good it's to me it's a tablet it has great speakers so it's great for

01:08:06.480 --> 01:08:12.160
Content watching um and you're not going to use it for uh like phone stuff you're

01:08:10.760 --> 01:08:17.000
not going to phone someone on you yeah exactly so it's not perfect and I'm

01:08:14.880 --> 01:08:21.400
really stoked for shield to like it needs Hardware volume buttons for the

01:08:19.080 --> 01:08:24.640
love everything inidia what is up with that that's true but that's not the

01:08:22.839 --> 01:08:29.279
worst thing it's not the worst it manageable um it needs to be lighter it

01:08:27.159 --> 01:08:33.000
needs to be lots of things I'm not a huge fan of how it sits in your hands

01:08:30.960 --> 01:08:38.960
you know what's funny is I wasn't at first and now that I use it more often

01:08:36.600 --> 01:08:43.799
than I use an Xbox 360 controller the Xbox 360 controller feels kind of cheap

01:08:40.839 --> 01:08:47.400
and crappy to me the shield has a really solid feel I like okay I like the weight

01:08:45.880 --> 01:08:53.560
that's not what I don't like about it and the rubber grip is fine but it's like it's the weird it's just how my

01:08:50.600 --> 01:08:57.159
fingers naturally sit on it is very odd give it some more time I'm going to and

01:08:55.719 --> 01:09:01.279
very recently started using it so I'm going to I I should have given that to

01:08:59.400 --> 01:09:05.520
you like months ago to use just because I talk about it so much it'd be great if

01:09:02.839 --> 01:09:08.279
you had I know I know I just kept not getting around to copying all the data

01:09:07.120 --> 01:09:13.279
off of it I'm basically a terrible

01:09:11.319 --> 01:09:17.000
person um but yeah so far I've been enjoying it a lot wait before we before

01:09:15.000 --> 01:09:23.600
we get into this we have uh we have a couple of sponsor

01:09:18.679 --> 01:09:25.400

01:09:32.520 --> 01:09:39.120
about uh the whole Squarespace integration is at okay it went through

01:09:37.000 --> 01:09:42.960
phases at the beginning of us talking about Squarespace and how it's you I'm

01:09:41.640 --> 01:09:46.920
going to work in the sponsor messages here how it's a fast and easy way to

01:09:45.040 --> 01:09:49.640

01:09:57.840 --> 01:10:02.560
automatically with you all that stuff that's really good about Squarespace and

01:10:01.320 --> 01:10:08.239
it's funny because when we first started doing these Integrations we had a whole bunch of people sign up right away and

01:10:06.080 --> 01:10:10.840
then there was like a lull where people were like I don't want to hear about

01:10:09.520 --> 01:10:16.000
Squarespace anymore I already even know what it is now you know what's funny is

01:10:14.120 --> 01:10:18.960
like I'm seeing more and more people like thanking me on Twitter for drawing

01:10:17.760 --> 01:10:23.239
their attention to Squarespace because they're just like yeah I was like doing

01:10:21.360 --> 01:10:29.239
something else before and it's like super stupid and squ space is not super

01:10:26.280 --> 01:10:33.000
stupid so like thank you for the 10% off code because it's kind of awesome and

01:10:31.560 --> 01:10:37.640
regardless of whether you decide to give us credit for your Squarespace account

01:10:34.960 --> 01:10:41.440
if you sign up for a full year you get a free domain they will throw that in for

01:10:39.440 --> 01:10:46.520
you so guys there you go Squarespace beautiful websites that work on mobile

01:10:44.000 --> 01:10:49.480
desktop uh laptops I went ahead and went to the wrong thing I wanted to go to my

01:10:48.120 --> 01:10:54.840
screen here so you can see our Squarespace website which I can like I

01:10:51.960 --> 01:10:59.880
can touch and I can use a mouse and keyboard if I want it's nice and snappy

01:10:57.480 --> 01:11:06.719
it's lmedi group.com you guys can all hit it as hard as you want and it will

01:11:02.760 --> 01:11:08.560
not care at all you know what's really

01:11:06.719 --> 01:11:15.280
funny is I don't know if we actually have Squarespace listed as one of our

01:11:11.760 --> 01:11:16.120
sponsors on our site yes we do there

01:11:15.280 --> 01:11:22.080
they are all right so moving on to a sponsor

01:11:19.679 --> 01:11:26.520
that um that we don't actually have listed on the site because we compiled

01:11:23.719 --> 01:11:31.760
that list a long time time ago this is Dollar Shave Club and we've gotten a lot

01:11:29.159 --> 01:11:37.000
of really positive feedback about this one already I've had a ton of people

01:11:34.560 --> 01:11:41.000
message me telling me that okay yep I switched to Dollar Shave Club and it's

01:11:38.800 --> 01:11:44.880
amazing it's awesome I I think most of them probably haven't even gotten their

01:11:42.400 --> 01:11:47.159
initial orders yet oh we did the first integration like a couple weeks ago

01:11:46.239 --> 01:11:52.239
right yeah they could have definitely got yeah they probably have yeah they probably have especially the US guys I

01:11:50.719 --> 01:11:57.960
had some people saying like yeah the the razors are blanking great now I I'll do

01:11:56.000 --> 01:12:01.880
I'll okay like their whole ad I'm going to switch over to my screen here for a

01:11:59.440 --> 01:12:05.920
moment this is a fantastic ad and aside from what I'm saying during the show

01:12:03.600 --> 01:12:13.000
here you guys should definitely watch it because their CEO is kind of a marketing

01:12:10.719 --> 01:12:17.520
genius here so he basically walks through their warehouse talks about how

01:12:14.760 --> 01:12:21.040
they're creating American jobs um they were able to bleep out the swear wordss

01:12:19.280 --> 01:12:26.120
that go with their our blades are blanking great slogan uh talk about sort

01:12:24.080 --> 01:12:30.480
of the the money you can save by switching to Dollar Shave Club versus um

01:12:28.800 --> 01:12:35.679
going and buying razors at the store we talked about this at the beginning of the show but just the fact that there's

01:12:33.280 --> 01:12:41.440
like you know an armed guard next to the replacement razor blades is just it

01:12:38.400 --> 01:12:42.840
creates extra hassle when already I know

01:12:41.440 --> 01:12:48.600
both of the people sitting in this room are just playing too lazy to go to the

01:12:45.639 --> 01:12:55.199
store to buy new razors like okay what I would do is not as bad as you what would

01:12:51.880 --> 01:12:56.639
you do I would like in my first

01:12:55.199 --> 01:13:01.280
integration for Dollar Shave Club I made a joke where like I was using um a

01:12:58.760 --> 01:13:05.880
hobbit replica sting and I was like maybe I can get one more shave out of

01:13:03.000 --> 01:13:12.440
this Elven blade but I would do that as so I instead of having a razor blade

01:13:08.280 --> 01:13:14.400
I've gone I've gone out 500 more shaves

01:13:12.440 --> 01:13:17.840
like instead of using it for a week which is what Dollar Shave Club says

01:13:15.800 --> 01:13:22.320
look use it for a week get a really nice clean shave and next month four more are

01:13:20.840 --> 01:13:25.320
going to show up use them each for a week that is the way it should be done

01:13:24.199 --> 01:13:31.040
the way that I would do it is I would use them for like 3 weeks and then you

01:13:28.520 --> 01:13:33.719
were saying before the show started I I literally don't think I've bought razors

01:13:32.440 --> 01:13:38.520
for a year and I think it was like I don't

01:13:36.120 --> 01:13:42.920
even think I no I didn't buy them my mom got them for me not this Christmas but

01:13:41.120 --> 01:13:47.520
the one before so it's been more than a year it's been like a year and what like

01:13:45.639 --> 01:13:52.400
3 months almost four months it's been about a year and four months um since I

01:13:50.440 --> 01:13:56.239
bought new razors that's disgusting and I just grind them against my face

01:13:54.639 --> 01:13:59.440
because there some amount of metal there and it has some amount of an edge so

01:13:57.920 --> 01:14:04.639
it's just going to eventually pull off all the hair all right so the service is

01:14:01.239 --> 01:14:06.400
available in Canada the US and Australia

01:14:04.639 --> 01:14:11.719
I'm going to go ahead fire up my screen here so for less than $10 a month for

01:14:09.159 --> 01:14:17.960
even the executive which is their premium six blade razor that's like made

01:14:14.800 --> 01:14:19.440
in outer space or something like that I

01:14:17.960 --> 01:14:23.120
mean their marketing is really silly I kind of like these guys cuz they're just

01:14:21.080 --> 01:14:27.920
they they're not too serious about it they're like yeah we have a service and

01:14:25.199 --> 01:14:32.040
and like you know what it's razor blades man like there's only so much we can say

01:14:29.960 --> 01:14:34.639
about it but look they're really good they're really cheap they're really

01:14:33.239 --> 01:14:37.679
convenient because for me the big obstacle was just I didn't feel like

01:14:36.239 --> 01:14:41.719
going and dealing with it so I would have my wife buy them after like the

01:14:39.440 --> 01:14:46.239
three weeks some guy just said um looks at slick I never knew he didn't use

01:14:43.440 --> 01:14:50.360
razors it's like I do man I do actually have to all the time there's a reason

01:14:47.920 --> 01:14:53.760
why this sits here it's cuz it's way too much to deal with if it if I don't let

01:14:51.880 --> 01:14:58.960
it so aside from their razors they have Dr Carver's easy shave butter which I

01:14:55.560 --> 01:15:00.760
actually did try and it works um unlike

01:14:58.960 --> 01:15:03.960
shaving is there an option so you can get like a cheaper set that doesn't have

01:15:02.080 --> 01:15:06.320
the butter yeah okay yeah the the butter is an optional I know some people don't

01:15:05.280 --> 01:15:09.840
use it cuz some people like me and they just shave in the shower yeah but it's

01:15:08.480 --> 01:15:13.639
actually kind of nice because unlike shaving cream it's not opaque so it's

01:15:12.400 --> 01:15:18.440
clear so you can kind of see what you're doing that's actually pretty aw and it softens up the hairs just like kind of

01:15:16.560 --> 01:15:23.000
you'd expect and it smells really nice I don't know if you smelled it you smell

01:15:20.159 --> 01:15:28.159
it yeah smells nice so and it's not like awkward to smell that like the a okay

01:15:25.400 --> 01:15:33.840
cuz I got to bring these up too one WIP Charlie they the ad for this one

01:15:30.600 --> 01:15:35.440
actually was like it was like awkward to

01:15:33.840 --> 01:15:38.639
the point where he's like yeah he gets off a toilet he's like sometimes you

01:15:37.199 --> 01:15:42.880
know you don't have time to jump in the shower and rinse off your butt so we

01:15:41.040 --> 01:15:47.880
made these peppermint scented butt wipes for men one wipe Charlie and I really

01:15:45.840 --> 01:15:52.000
just talking about these makes me feel a little uncomfortable but there you go

01:15:49.360 --> 01:15:57.280
guys Dollar Shave Club bathroom supplies direct to your door once a month we've

01:15:54.520 --> 01:16:01.280
actually had um there's someone walking by outside who's listening to me talk

01:15:58.880 --> 01:16:05.560
about butt wipes for men and that's a little bit awkward but the point is

01:16:03.440 --> 01:16:09.560
we've had over a hundred of our viewers already sign up for Dollar Shave Club so

01:16:07.600 --> 01:16:12.000
chicken or dog and she was just staring out the window when he said butt wipes

01:16:11.080 --> 01:16:15.920
from in okay okay I'm sorry yeah we got a

01:16:14.719 --> 01:16:20.239
bunch of we got a bunch of people did I even tell you that yeah yeah like we've had over a hundred people sign up and

01:16:19.000 --> 01:16:24.560
everything I've seen from people has been super positive so far so guys I

01:16:22.760 --> 01:16:28.400
would love for you to drop me a line on Twitter and let me know any one of our

01:16:26.679 --> 01:16:32.480
sponsors that you decide to use whether it's Hotspot Shield um oh Hotspot Shield

01:16:30.840 --> 01:16:36.520
has a design our new slogan contest they're running on Facebook right now uh

01:16:34.560 --> 01:16:41.360
you guys should probably check that out Facebook Hotspot Shield design slogan or

01:16:40.040 --> 01:16:44.719
something like that or come up with our new slogan is the thing that they're

01:16:43.280 --> 01:16:47.960
that they're running right now so whoever it is we'd love to hear from you

01:16:46.480 --> 01:16:51.600
guys that you're using it and that it's great and we'd also love to hear from

01:16:49.800 --> 01:16:54.440
you that you're using it and it sucks yeah because we have the inside track

01:16:53.280 --> 01:17:00.159
with these companies and if they're doing something that's making you unhappy a we don't want sponsors that

01:16:58.159 --> 01:17:04.159
are making our viewers unhappy and we will cut them off if there is a problem

01:17:02.440 --> 01:17:07.679
seriously we will cut them off and number two is because we're able to

01:17:06.159 --> 01:17:14.239
bring your problem to their attention we can get it resolved for you pretty quickly most of the time so we'd love to

01:17:11.320 --> 01:17:18.199
hear from you guys about that all right we had such a good rapport of people

01:17:16.440 --> 01:17:21.679
around here I know and now they're going to be like they talk about butt wives in

01:17:20.679 --> 01:17:26.960
their house what are they doing in there

01:17:25.040 --> 01:17:32.000
wiping our butts what do you not wipe your butt that should be not going to help

01:17:29.840 --> 01:17:35.040
things that should be our retort like do you think wiping your butts

01:17:35.400 --> 01:17:41.199
gross oh God what's our next topic uh we

01:17:38.600 --> 01:17:44.080
can do do we want to finish off the valve stuff yeah let's finish off the

01:17:42.560 --> 01:17:48.960
valve stuff we don't have much longer on the show here I kind of went tangental

01:17:46.840 --> 01:17:52.040
today yeah people that's all right yeah I guess as long as we do it okay then

01:17:50.600 --> 01:17:56.239
it's all right all right valve's new film free to play is a bid to legitimize

01:17:54.920 --> 01:18:02.199
professional Gamers post on the Washington Post you watched it right I

01:17:57.960 --> 01:18:04.560
did watch it and while I think the angle

01:18:02.199 --> 01:18:10.159
from the I'm GNA stop you who should watch it I honestly I'm going to send it

01:18:07.440 --> 01:18:13.760
to my mom and dad I had a little bit of boats with this when I was younger and I

01:18:12.280 --> 01:18:17.880
think my mom can relate to certain things that happened so I think my mom

01:18:15.600 --> 01:18:20.360
will appreciate the movie I think my dad will just kind of find it interesting

01:18:19.159 --> 01:18:26.480
because he's always come to packs with us and stuff even though he's not a huge

01:18:22.320 --> 01:18:32.560
gamer he likes being with the group and

01:18:26.480 --> 01:18:35.760
he it he canate it um but Gamers now

01:18:32.560 --> 01:18:38.360
it's it's about DOTA right very

01:18:35.760 --> 01:18:41.840
specifically it's about DOTA I don't really play DotA yeah go figure it's

01:18:40.400 --> 01:18:46.199
they don't try to hide that that's one thing that I found in the Washington Post thing was that they're like oh my

01:18:44.360 --> 01:18:51.280
God it's about DOTA and I'm like it's a documentary about DOTA out yeah good job

01:18:49.679 --> 01:18:56.159
anyways sorry I'm going to rant more about that later but it's like you don't

01:18:53.320 --> 01:19:02.280
have to necessarily appreciate or like DOTA to appreciate and like this

01:18:59.440 --> 01:19:08.000
documentary I don't really play DotA much or ever at all and I don't really

01:19:05.080 --> 01:19:12.440
watch it too much either um and I really enjoyed it okay really really enjoyed it

01:19:10.440 --> 01:19:16.320
and I'm not a huge DOTA fan now that being said I used to be really big into

01:19:15.040 --> 01:19:21.520
uh League of Legends and I was a bit into DOTA one and stuff like that and I've kind of dropped off I don't play

01:19:18.840 --> 01:19:24.920
any mobas anymore right um that's just a personal thing I burn myself out I play

01:19:23.320 --> 01:19:28.320
them way too much I have like hundreds and hundreds of hours in a few of them

01:19:26.679 --> 01:19:31.760
so I'm just like okay I'm pulling off a little bit playing other things like I might jump back in the future I'm just

01:19:30.639 --> 01:19:37.239
not that into it now pulling off or pulling out oh man I knew you were going to go there um but it's still really

01:19:36.000 --> 01:19:44.400
interesting it covers some really interesting stuff and one thing that I really appreciated was while it is a

01:19:41.120 --> 01:19:45.920
documentary about valve about DOTA they

01:19:44.400 --> 01:19:49.719
didn't just thump the hammer the whole time they actually went into like these

01:19:48.320 --> 01:19:54.520
are problems thump the hammer what does that even mean I was going to say drum but then I said Hammer it just didn't

01:19:52.320 --> 01:19:57.760
work the ham cuz it would be like pound the drum you know that was the whole

01:19:56.080 --> 01:20:04.000
point thump the drum wouldn't even be right it's close it it with a brick go

01:20:00.639 --> 01:20:05.280
ahead anyways um so it it was

01:20:04.000 --> 01:20:10.239
interesting to see like okay these are all the problems that these players have actually gone through and these are the

01:20:08.520 --> 01:20:14.960
issues that they're having trying to be professional Gamers it's not easy

01:20:12.600 --> 01:20:17.440
they're not making much money like it brought up all these problems like

01:20:16.080 --> 01:20:21.360
despite it being a million dooll tournament a lot of them really didn't

01:20:19.960 --> 01:20:25.159
make enough money to make a million dollars yeah no like and that was a

01:20:23.880 --> 01:20:29.960
really interesting angle that they came around and it it it seemed more like a

01:20:27.360 --> 01:20:34.320
push to legitimize gaming in general instead of being an advertisement while

01:20:32.239 --> 01:20:38.520
still being a documentary by Valve about DOTA which I found really interesting

01:20:36.760 --> 01:20:42.159
and coming from an angle where I'm not super interested in Dota much more

01:20:40.920 --> 01:20:49.440
interested currently in Counterstrike another valve title but there was nothing in here about Counterstrike um

01:20:46.679 --> 01:20:53.639
still super interesting okay so I I appreciate if you're into gaming on a

01:20:51.760 --> 01:20:56.920
professional level at all like if you like watching professional gaming if you

01:20:55.360 --> 01:21:03.719
like any of that kind of stuff or even if you're just a gamer I could see this being very interesting um and you don't

01:21:01.400 --> 01:21:07.120
have to be very well versed to appreciate the film they explain

01:21:05.320 --> 01:21:10.800
everything so I wouldn't worry about that either like I can show this to my

01:21:08.560 --> 01:21:15.600
mom and she'll get it and it'll be fine one man Pizza says if you liked free to

01:21:12.520 --> 01:21:17.760
play Go Google the Smash Brothers or the

01:21:15.600 --> 01:21:21.800
Smash Bros apparently it's a really good uh gaming documentary as well yeah indie

01:21:19.520 --> 01:21:25.800
game the movie is really good uh I watched that that was really good yeah

01:21:23.199 --> 01:21:29.400
indie game the movie is great uh so these are those are all really

01:21:27.320 --> 01:21:33.800
interesting things to check out um The Washington Post bringed up a few things

01:21:31.199 --> 01:21:37.239
the Andrea Peterson was saying that it's an extended commercial an effective

01:21:35.840 --> 01:21:41.400
extended commercial but definitely an extended commercial and they go through

01:21:39.400 --> 01:21:45.159
the thing talking about how like they brought up they followed cliche

01:21:43.440 --> 01:21:49.040
characters and I'm like it's a documentary man they call they followed

01:21:46.920 --> 01:21:55.000
like captains of teams where do you think cliches come from and like it's

01:21:51.560 --> 01:21:56.239
it's one thing too because um up with

01:21:55.000 --> 01:22:01.679
friends that were trying to do it and myself trying to do it and like people that were wildly more successful than I

01:21:59.560 --> 01:22:06.880
was and all this kind of stuff like we all went through this stuff so you're

01:22:04.480 --> 01:22:10.840
wrong people from Washington Post it's really good that they covered that

01:22:08.400 --> 01:22:13.800
because this legitimately happens your parents will be against you that being

01:22:12.239 --> 01:22:18.560
said at the very beginning my parents were and then once they started to see

01:22:15.360 --> 01:22:21.400
how into it I was they were totally

01:22:18.560 --> 01:22:24.800
welcoming and happy about it um but definitely not everyone's are and they

01:22:23.239 --> 01:22:28.960
covered that in this movie which really interesting I if if my son was like yeah

01:22:27.560 --> 01:22:32.600
I'm going to be a Pro Gamer dad I'd be like no you're not like and these these

01:22:31.239 --> 01:22:37.280
are things that should be covered and were covered and were really interesting

01:22:34.280 --> 01:22:40.040
and they show like um the one guy's mom

01:22:37.280 --> 01:22:44.560
being like this is really dumb like to his face in the documentary right and

01:22:42.320 --> 01:22:47.800
I'm like that's good that should have been in this documentary and they're

01:22:46.120 --> 01:22:50.920
like oh we didn't necessarily see that it's just really like cliche characters

01:22:49.280 --> 01:22:55.040
and stuff and I'm like shut up that totally exist it's a documentary like

01:22:53.280 --> 01:22:59.199
they should cover that stuff and they're like yeah they spent so much time looking at the different players and I'm

01:22:57.400 --> 01:23:03.560
like thank you that's what I wanted to see they showed little Snippets from the

01:23:01.040 --> 01:23:06.840
matches and a lot of the time it sometimes it was an actual clip from the

01:23:05.239 --> 01:23:11.000
match and sometimes it was just like super heavily animated right and not

01:23:09.320 --> 01:23:14.840
like actually the stuff from the match which I think actually helped it be

01:23:13.320 --> 01:23:18.480
watchable by people that aren't super interested in Dota 2 I would have not I

01:23:17.360 --> 01:23:24.239
would have been able to follow it just fine if there was more footage from the matches cuz I understand Dota 2 but not

01:23:22.840 --> 01:23:29.320
everyone can and being able to show it to my mom that helps a lot right um and

01:23:26.920 --> 01:23:33.080
like having one-on-one interviews with relatives right was really interesting

01:23:31.679 --> 01:23:37.080
of the players and stuff like that like going heavily into their back stories

01:23:35.080 --> 01:23:41.040
because it's a really difficult thing to get into it's incredibly difficult to

01:23:39.400 --> 01:23:46.159
get into and they bring up the thing where like you're not going to be a Pro Gamer Beyond

01:23:43.840 --> 01:23:49.679
29 right because your your reaction time is going to be too low and like the main

01:23:48.080 --> 01:23:52.840
thing people usually think about that in is stuff like Counter-Strike but that

01:23:51.080 --> 01:23:55.719
applies to pretty much everything and of course there's exceptions to the rule

01:23:54.159 --> 01:24:00.120
but there's not very many right well just like teimo salani is still playing

01:23:57.600 --> 01:24:06.320
hockey the guy's like 42 like there's exception but like one guy yeah yeah

01:24:03.880 --> 01:24:09.080
yeah that's it so like it's it's interesting the stuff they bring up and

01:24:07.679 --> 01:24:12.639
it's it's honestly it's a great documentary I've got a few people upset

01:24:10.920 --> 01:24:16.560
that I would tell my son no you're not going to be a Pro Gamer um well I would

01:24:14.520 --> 01:24:21.600
also tell my son no you're not going to be a professional football player

01:24:18.400 --> 01:24:24.960
because in the real world you're

01:24:21.600 --> 01:24:26.560
probably not if he's willing to fight

01:24:24.960 --> 01:24:30.480
through the adversity of me telling him he's an idiot for trying then he stands

01:24:28.840 --> 01:24:37.360
a chance if he's going to be his son he's going to have to fight through that kind of stuff yeah so I don't know

01:24:34.760 --> 01:24:41.719
honestly like is that uh is that you know a correct parenting tactic oh I

01:24:39.400 --> 01:24:46.119
don't know probably not I don't care um the reality of it is if you're not

01:24:43.920 --> 01:24:49.360
willing to you know if you're not willing to fight for something that you

01:24:47.639 --> 01:24:55.360
believe in and you're not passionate about passionate enough about to get

01:24:52.600 --> 01:24:59.199
past you know your your your parents not caring about it you will not succeed

01:24:57.320 --> 01:25:02.520
anyway I'm sorry no it's true uh that's very true and they cover that in the

01:25:00.320 --> 01:25:06.719
documentary they show how much crap these guys have to go through and trust

01:25:04.760 --> 01:25:10.639
me even the people that they didn't cover were going through that stuff um

01:25:08.880 --> 01:25:14.719
no one's parents are going to go this is a very good career move don't go to

01:25:12.360 --> 01:25:17.960
school play games all day you'll be successful I don't see anyone's parents

01:25:16.440 --> 01:25:23.760
really doing that I can see parents going my mom and dad's wrote which was

01:25:21.159 --> 01:25:26.639
pursue other things yeah but if you want to do this as as much as you want in

01:25:24.920 --> 01:25:30.920
your free time go ahead and they'll support me with that that was fantastic

01:25:28.920 --> 01:25:35.400
my parents did in my opinion a very good job right I appreciate that a lot um but

01:25:33.199 --> 01:25:39.040
they also were kind of pushing like make sure and this is something I really

01:25:36.840 --> 01:25:42.080
appreciated too and I still apply is don't necessarily lock yourself in with

01:25:40.920 --> 01:25:47.480
one thing you need to have an exit strategy that's important I had someone

01:25:44.719 --> 01:25:52.000
else ask um well lonus would you uh tell your kid not to be a tech YouTuber

01:25:49.239 --> 01:25:56.719
absolutely what are the odds like what are the odds of su if anything the odd

01:25:54.320 --> 01:26:01.280
odds of success being a professional Tech YouTuber are probably lower than

01:25:59.280 --> 01:26:05.880
the odds of being a Pro Gamer at some level who is actually making a full-time

01:26:04.400 --> 01:26:10.800
job out of being a tech YouTuber there's not very many like I can count them on

01:26:08.320 --> 01:26:18.719
one hand probably like who is actually full-time Logan me Marcus

01:26:15.760 --> 01:26:23.840
Austin uh El you're not counting the team component though I'm not counting

01:26:21.880 --> 01:26:27.400
okay I'm not counting the team component okay okay so fine I could probably count

01:26:25.719 --> 01:26:31.199
like the the lead guys that are like running Tech YouTuber companies maybe on

01:26:29.159 --> 01:26:34.199
both hands cuz there's Detroit Borg I don't know if he does it fulltime and

01:26:32.480 --> 01:26:38.040
there's there's like some other guys but even looking at Lou from unbox therapy

01:26:36.360 --> 01:26:41.880
is another one so even looking at like a collab that he's planning a lot of the

01:26:40.360 --> 01:26:45.800
guys participating are like still students and stuff like they're not

01:26:43.560 --> 01:26:49.480
actually trying to turn this into a viable business yet even I mean even

01:26:47.320 --> 01:26:53.239
Marcus is still a student yeah and like he's making enough money that he could

01:26:51.239 --> 01:26:58.159
go full-time if he felt like it but he's not even he's one of the most successful

01:26:55.800 --> 01:27:01.719
ones out there and he's not even banking on it and he's doing the backup strategy

01:26:59.719 --> 01:27:04.400
thing the Ed strategy thing where if it fails there's an option I think that's a

01:27:03.400 --> 01:27:10.960
really good point and I mean people would ask me this all the time before I went before I went independent and

01:27:09.560 --> 01:27:15.040
people would say oh I want to be a tech YouTuber just like you and I'd say I'm

01:27:12.560 --> 01:27:20.000
not a tech YouTuber I have a real job I'm a product manager that's an actual

01:27:17.679 --> 01:27:23.440
job I do this Tech YouTube thing because it's like super fun and it's exciting

01:27:21.760 --> 01:27:29.040
and I really enjoy it and I'm passionate about it and that is my point my parents

01:27:26.840 --> 01:27:36.360
don't have a bloody idea what I do they have no idea they have never once bought

01:27:32.800 --> 01:27:39.960
a video game or a piece of okay no no

01:27:36.360 --> 01:27:42.119
they did they did upgrade our 386 to a

01:27:39.960 --> 01:27:46.840
486 but that wasn't for like for like gaming or Hardware passion or anything

01:27:44.360 --> 01:27:50.239
they've never actually bought me a piece of computer hardware want to be real

01:27:48.920 --> 01:27:55.400
clear about that my parents have my parents did my the closest I got was my

01:27:53.320 --> 01:28:00.400
uncle UPG his computer and I built his new computer for him and he gave me his

01:27:57.360 --> 01:28:03.320
old computer as like like an attab boy

01:28:00.400 --> 01:28:07.639
and this was a Pentium 1 166 mehz when Pentium 4S were on the market when I to

01:28:06.080 --> 01:28:11.760
be clear when I pieced out my first computer I paid for it all but I when I

01:28:10.159 --> 01:28:16.040
when I pieced it out my dad and I went to go pick it up and the the sales guy

01:28:14.080 --> 01:28:21.400
was like do you have a monitor and I was just like

01:28:18.520 --> 01:28:26.560
uh no Chrome monkey is bringing up some people who are not entirely YouTubers uh

01:28:23.840 --> 01:28:31.239
Ryan Shrout is not a YouTuber like he he does YouTube videos and you can tell him

01:28:28.480 --> 01:28:37.080
I said that quote lonus out of context Ryan Shrout is not a YouTuber uh but he

01:28:33.440 --> 01:28:39.320
runs pcper pc.com is his bread and

01:28:37.080 --> 01:28:44.440
butter that's a like a website that's web journalism as opposed to Dad I want

01:28:42.239 --> 01:28:49.400
to be a tech YouTuber it's more than two hands it's but he's using

01:28:46.920 --> 01:28:53.119
a what it's more there's more than two hands okay yeah okay fine there's more

01:28:51.320 --> 01:28:58.520
than however many hands worth but the ones doing it strictly on YouTube I

01:28:55.480 --> 01:29:00.239
don't know well if you include like are

01:28:58.520 --> 01:29:04.080
you talking about just PC Hardware cuz Tech YouTubers okay Tech

01:29:02.800 --> 01:29:08.440
YouTubers yeah there's probably tons of them yeah even then the odds are slim

01:29:06.840 --> 01:29:12.520
and I wouldn't be a big fan of it if he was like yeah that's my master plan I'm

01:29:10.119 --> 01:29:18.199
going to be like a tech YouTuber be like you got to have a real plan first

01:29:15.600 --> 01:29:22.800
like have a plan for a 9 to-5 and then if you like if you like make it it's

01:29:20.159 --> 01:29:28.800
kind of like professional athletes you know what the V majority of them go to

01:29:25.880 --> 01:29:32.520
school and participate in School athletics and then make it that's

01:29:30.600 --> 01:29:35.639
something too is like I I've my my brother does Starcraft casting locally

01:29:33.960 --> 01:29:40.440
right so i' I've talked to some of the guys locally that are really good one of

01:29:37.199 --> 01:29:42.280
them um who's like an awesome dude fire

01:29:40.440 --> 01:29:45.840
Zerg I follow him around a little bit he's actually really good yeah um and

01:29:44.639 --> 01:29:53.080
like a few of the other guys that they hang out with and stuff they go to this UBC Starcraft club right UBC University

01:29:51.199 --> 01:29:56.600
of British Columbia Starcraft club they're all kids that are going to UBC

01:29:55.119 --> 01:30:00.119
and also enjoy playing Starcraft and some of them are really good and could

01:29:58.600 --> 01:30:06.199
probably make it professionally but are also going to UBC yeah so have a backup

01:30:03.679 --> 01:30:10.280
plan I guess is the main point of thisly crap we could almost do I we we got

01:30:08.639 --> 01:30:14.920
sidetracked today we could almost do a whole other show on like some of this

01:30:12.840 --> 01:30:21.320
stuff in here yeah we went from not enough topics every week to like way too

01:30:17.760 --> 01:30:23.199
many yeah H new CPUs from Intel okay

01:30:21.320 --> 01:30:26.880
we're going to have to like Blitz this stuff you guys

01:30:24.560 --> 01:30:31.320
so Intel's looking at doing an unlock God we haven't done any VR yet I know we

01:30:28.920 --> 01:30:35.960
have done none of the VR and none of the improvements to direct X12 and openg GL

01:30:34.199 --> 01:30:38.960
like we're screwed okay guys we're going to have to just Blitz this stuff

01:30:37.239 --> 01:30:44.480
unlocked Pentium 20th anniversary edition uh we're going to be getting an

01:30:40.360 --> 01:30:46.080
8 core core i7 extreme and and Intel is

01:30:44.480 --> 01:30:49.880
talking about fixing the thermal interface material issue that they've

01:30:47.600 --> 01:30:53.000
had with some of their processors giving you better temperatures and hopefully

01:30:51.440 --> 01:30:56.600
improved overclocking personally I'm not expecting it to make a big differ

01:30:54.880 --> 01:31:01.679
but the fact that Intel is listening to the Enthusiast community and addressing

01:30:59.119 --> 01:31:06.840
it is a really good sign cuz they've basically come out and acknowledged like

01:31:05.159 --> 01:31:11.639
kind ofing for a little while we've done some kind of crappy stuff and have not

01:31:09.199 --> 01:31:15.280
acknowledged it at all so now we're getting a proper Enthusiast grade SSD

01:31:13.880 --> 01:31:20.679
we're getting an eight Core Extreme Edition we're getting fixed thermal interface material it's like they're

01:31:18.960 --> 01:31:26.360
listening to us and that's extremely exciting yay and thumbs up all right

01:31:24.040 --> 01:31:30.920
Source here directex 12 that needs to start working there we

01:31:28.560 --> 01:31:36.199
go all right direct X2 this is from NVIDIA's blog where the main notes here

01:31:34.080 --> 01:31:40.080
and I'm just going to cut you guys off my screen so I can cheat and go back to

01:31:37.679 --> 01:31:45.119
my notes um will be delivered sometime this year with enough time to see

01:31:41.440 --> 01:31:48.880
shipping titles holiday 2015 forsa five

01:31:45.119 --> 01:31:50.960
was already ped ped ped it was ported

01:31:48.880 --> 01:31:55.679
from the Xbox One to the PC with DirectX 12 in four man months that's not bad you

01:31:54.119 --> 01:32:00.800
could have four Dudes working on it for a month four Dudes or women whatever I

01:31:58.400 --> 01:32:06.080
meant like dudes like people um not trying to I try not to be

01:32:03.119 --> 01:32:10.600
sexist um so wom computers is becoming a bigger and bigger thing I know I know

01:32:07.960 --> 01:32:15.520
and like that's good that's like great and I don't want to seem like you know

01:32:13.199 --> 01:32:19.840
male chauvinist women can't you know code CU they can better than me my one

01:32:18.520 --> 01:32:23.040
of my tutors when I was going to school was a a female and she's the best tutor

01:32:21.639 --> 01:32:26.560
I've ever had that's like saying something racially sensitive being like

01:32:24.679 --> 01:32:30.360
one of my friends is a black guy though not really okay it's not the same

01:32:29.000 --> 01:32:33.360
thing at all

01:32:33.440 --> 01:32:40.760
no okay that would be like me saying the insensitive thing and being like but I

01:32:38.040 --> 01:32:44.560
know like one female coder so it's okay but I know a whole bunch like I know

01:32:42.560 --> 01:32:49.920
what time okay anyway the point is uh fors of 5 was ported from Xbox One to PC

01:32:46.880 --> 01:32:52.840
with directx12 in four people

01:32:49.920 --> 01:32:57.600
months with big performance improvements direct X1 relied predominantly on one

01:32:55.639 --> 01:33:01.239
CPU core to do the bulk of the work and it was able to distribute things a

01:32:59.000 --> 01:33:07.199
little bit but we've had multi CPUs multi-core CPUs for years Microsoft I'm

01:33:05.560 --> 01:33:12.199
glad that you're doing this now but I wish the Sleeping Bear had woken up a

01:33:09.560 --> 01:33:16.679
little bit earlier and not waited for AMD to put all this work into mantle

01:33:14.639 --> 01:33:21.639
which is basically in my mind a wasted effort at this point oh okay not wasted

01:33:18.920 --> 01:33:27.239
effort mantle looks like a dead project to me but the fact that we're able to

01:33:24.920 --> 01:33:33.280
get this Improvement in the industry with Microsoft improving DirectX giving

01:33:30.119 --> 01:33:35.600
the developers more bare toetal sort of

01:33:33.280 --> 01:33:39.199
ability to program for the gpus uh giving the developers the ability to

01:33:37.480 --> 01:33:44.440
dramatically scale the number of draw calls um reducing the driver overhead

01:33:42.639 --> 01:33:50.280
significantly and spreading it out over multiple CPU cores this is all in my

01:33:47.960 --> 01:33:54.719
mind either a result of mantle or a result of Microsoft kind of looking at

01:33:52.440 --> 01:34:00.040
what AMD was planning to do and going oh crap if the API isn't like direct X

01:33:58.000 --> 01:34:04.440
anymore then like why would people game on Windows

01:34:01.960 --> 01:34:08.800
uhoh and I'm glad that they're finally waking up and that they completed a goal

01:34:06.840 --> 01:34:12.480
AMD said for a long time if if they ran away from this and maybe so the mantle

01:34:10.320 --> 01:34:16.239
doesn't have to exist it's okay yep and they did say that I wasn't sure if they

01:34:14.199 --> 01:34:21.600
were truthful about that but they said it that's true but they yeah regardless

01:34:19.159 --> 01:34:25.880
they said it so so direct X12 could be leveraged on the Xbox One Windows mobile

01:34:24.239 --> 01:34:32.840
but Microsoft has neither confirmed nor denied whether it will come to Windows 7

01:34:29.800 --> 01:34:34.880
yeah I really wanted to please I don't

01:34:32.840 --> 01:34:38.040
want to move up I'm completely happy with my we could be looking at orders of

01:34:36.520 --> 01:34:42.360
magnitude better performance in some ways yeah we'd have to change over every

01:34:39.760 --> 01:34:47.000
like like draw calls would be 10 to 100 times improvements in performance and

01:34:45.280 --> 01:34:52.960
this is really exciting hardware-wise it's coming to any gcn AMD card however

01:34:51.280 --> 01:34:58.080
we've noticed that just because something to every gcn card 7,000 series

01:34:56.119 --> 01:35:02.119
all the way up to the newer stuff doesn't mean it actually works that well

01:34:59.600 --> 01:35:05.040
on it yeah um so just throwing that out there and there's actually a fairly

01:35:03.239 --> 01:35:11.520
noticeable difference between gcn1 and gcn 1.1 so there you go and it's coming

01:35:08.520 --> 01:35:14.360
to every DirectX capable NVIDIA GPU so

01:35:11.520 --> 01:35:18.239
that's fery Kepler and Maxwell AMD hasn't said anything about 5,000 series

01:35:16.000 --> 01:35:21.880
or 6,000 series but I would I would expect that's not going to be coming all

01:35:20.080 --> 01:35:27.199
right open GL improvements here we go Bo boom uh from

01:35:25.679 --> 01:35:32.520
the NVIDIA blog if you want to get a developer's attention all you need to do

01:35:29.280 --> 01:35:35.520
is start dropping whole numbers great

01:35:32.520 --> 01:35:38.760
Point Adrien or ASU sorry how did I read

01:35:35.520 --> 01:35:41.320
Adrian wow I got my eyes no

01:35:38.760 --> 01:35:45.360
idea just read the A and then just made up the

01:35:42.880 --> 01:35:50.440
rest that's all I need that's like skim reading to a

01:35:47.920 --> 01:35:57.239
completely new level all right so an unlikely team of presenters got together

01:35:53.840 --> 01:35:59.520
at GDC this I got a kick out of this but

01:35:57.239 --> 01:36:07.440
Intel AMD and NVIDIA really weird I know right hosted

01:36:03.119 --> 01:36:10.159
a session on openg and how openg current

01:36:07.440 --> 01:36:17.400
modern openg could be used to reduce driver overhead to near

01:36:13.119 --> 01:36:21.639
zero improving performance 1.3 times

01:36:17.400 --> 01:36:23.600
like easily and then up to 7 to 15 times

01:36:21.639 --> 01:36:28.159
with some optimization that is extremely exciting and unlike DirectX which was

01:36:25.920 --> 01:36:33.119
like yeah it could work on like Windows phone openg can work on whatever you

01:36:31.080 --> 01:36:38.080
want so we're talking any mobile platform pretty much any desktop

01:36:35.719 --> 01:36:41.719
platform any I don't know you could probably run it on a toaster if you

01:36:39.639 --> 01:36:44.880
really felt like it so openg GL is extremely exciting and while on the

01:36:43.000 --> 01:36:49.679
desktop the performance I know the performance improvements are going to be

01:36:47.719 --> 01:36:53.760
really important on mobile the improvements in battery life because

01:36:51.400 --> 01:36:58.239
it's much more efficient to build multi CPUs then High performing

01:36:55.800 --> 01:37:04.040
single-threaded CPUs the improvements in battery life on mobile that we can that

01:37:01.000 --> 01:37:06.080
we can achieve by leveraging openg as a

01:37:04.040 --> 01:37:10.360
as a way to reduce overhead and as a way to utilize more cores is extremely

01:37:08.199 --> 01:37:14.480
exciting all right let's move on to the Snowdrop engine Holy balls this thing

01:37:13.520 --> 01:37:18.960
looks outstanding so there's a video which

01:37:17.440 --> 01:37:24.840
basically everyone should just go watch this is on hexus.net but this thing

01:37:21.600 --> 01:37:27.360
looks amazing and the main points here

01:37:24.840 --> 01:37:31.679
to take away are that they've created a way of working with the engine that like

01:37:30.080 --> 01:37:35.960
obviously it's not this simple but in the demo they're just like dragging and

01:37:33.440 --> 01:37:41.760
dropping things and like drawing lines to connect um different elements like

01:37:38.480 --> 01:37:45.320
actions as well as objects and events

01:37:41.760 --> 01:37:47.040
and uh basically the idea is aside from

01:37:45.320 --> 01:37:51.599
looking absolutely amazing let's see if I can find the part with the burning

01:37:48.400 --> 01:37:53.719
buildings because it just looks so good

01:37:51.599 --> 01:37:56.040
like look at the cityscape where's the burning building I want the

01:37:54.960 --> 01:38:03.719
burning building I don't have enough time for this crap literally we're already over

01:38:00.599 --> 01:38:05.159
time I know people got to go home they

01:38:03.719 --> 01:38:09.360
get to their families they might already be home whatever there's a car with lights on it that's kind of like

01:38:07.880 --> 01:38:14.520
building good enough we'll settle for that all right so what do we got going

01:38:10.960 --> 01:38:16.239
on here I go back to my notes because

01:38:14.520 --> 01:38:19.840
there's a lot of stuff I don't remember system so the yeah okay so nodeb

01:38:18.280 --> 01:38:25.400
scripting system allows all objects and actions to be connected allows the artist to focus on creativity rather the

01:38:23.679 --> 01:38:30.159
mundane tasks it'll be available first in Tom Clan's the division later in 2014

01:38:28.639 --> 01:38:34.560
and this was really cool also in the video it allows easy experimentation and

01:38:32.599 --> 01:38:38.119
testing of whatever is being worked on so the video shows patterns being

01:38:36.320 --> 01:38:42.080
altered with just like a slider on the side of a helicopter and like a little

01:38:40.280 --> 01:38:44.760
robot just like walking around in a test environment where you can like put stuff

01:38:43.320 --> 01:38:50.000
for it to step on and you can test it and look at how it's going to work

01:38:47.599 --> 01:38:54.000
unity5 has been announced moving on to the next thing this is from Tech crunch

01:38:52.199 --> 01:39:00.000
I'll jump in once we better lighting better audio and early support for

01:38:56.560 --> 01:39:03.639
plugin free browser games wow really

01:39:00.000 --> 01:39:06.440
cool really cool wow okay I'll let you

01:39:03.639 --> 01:39:11.119
cover this um okay so what I was really expecting when I saw this and lonus

01:39:08.360 --> 01:39:15.280
probably remembers me saying this is uh not surprised on the timing because this

01:39:13.159 --> 01:39:19.040
coming out and unity being such a big force in the VR scene with oculus I

01:39:17.719 --> 01:39:24.080
assumed it was going to tie in something really heavily with oculus but it

01:39:21.360 --> 01:39:30.760
actually seems the main thing are the web stuff so plug-in list support for

01:39:27.080 --> 01:39:32.159
browsers um like early access web GL

01:39:30.760 --> 01:39:35.560
support like all this kind of stuff audio systems lighting stuff like that

01:39:34.159 --> 01:39:40.560
all being brought into Unity which is really cool because Unity is such a heavy hitter when it comes to Indie

01:39:38.560 --> 01:39:44.520
Games and then allowing them all to access this kind of stuff is very cool

01:39:42.400 --> 01:39:49.199
obviously this is also going to go to Oculus and people have been talking

01:39:45.960 --> 01:39:50.840
about how while this is very cool a lot

01:39:49.199 --> 01:39:55.280
of this was actually able to be brought in if you were like a really technical

01:39:53.679 --> 01:40:00.040
user you could apply all this stuff yourself with mods and whatnot but this

01:39:57.280 --> 01:40:04.239
is now easily done by anyone so that's actually really important in my opinion

01:40:02.199 --> 01:40:09.599
um there's also a video of new features for Source 2 which is really cool um and

01:40:07.679 --> 01:40:13.560
then we should probably move on already Revan Stig says shut up about Oculus oh

01:40:12.320 --> 01:40:19.159
that ain't happening no the mantle and true audio

01:40:17.159 --> 01:40:22.480
patch for thief has been released I got to wonder how many of the

01:40:21.239 --> 01:40:27.040
people who cared about Thief have already watched or already played it

01:40:25.159 --> 01:40:30.480
yeah I you know I did I tell you I stopped

01:40:28.440 --> 01:40:34.080
completely after I got the benchmarking run I just quit because I was like the

01:40:32.520 --> 01:40:39.119
audio in this game is too messed up for me to care going to wait well at least

01:40:36.199 --> 01:40:44.360
true audio may help things so Tom's Hardware actually has some benchmarks of

01:40:42.239 --> 01:40:49.679
uh Thief running with true audio and mantle I haven't looked at these yet so

01:40:46.960 --> 01:40:53.800
so that's interesting butm let's have a look theme frame rate

01:40:51.880 --> 01:40:58.760
lowest detail preset why we been looking at this okay normal details here we go

01:40:56.400 --> 01:41:02.840
normal so here's directex versus manle oh we're looking at some pretty

01:40:59.920 --> 01:41:07.599
significant improvements so here's a 270 which um it's not even a super high

01:41:05.520 --> 01:41:12.199
powerered graphics card and an 8350 which is a pretty decent CPU and we're

01:41:09.840 --> 01:41:16.360
looking at like wow like 30% Improvement in performance oh of minimum but that's

01:41:15.080 --> 01:41:21.480
the most important thing anyway minum okay yeah I was like that seems very low

01:41:19.360 --> 01:41:25.679
for a really weird reason makes no sense no I was looking at minimum FPS that's

01:41:23.320 --> 01:41:28.440
pretty impressive um positional audio was just completely broken in the game

01:41:27.320 --> 01:41:33.199
but it may actually be fixed now you should give it a shot May that's what I wanted to bring up with this is I'm I'm

01:41:31.840 --> 01:41:38.560
probably going to try it again now because positional audio is brutal before there could be someone two floors

01:41:36.480 --> 01:41:42.320
below you walking around and he sounds like he's exactly beside you on the same

01:41:40.360 --> 01:41:47.880
level I like what is this because the way the game was always supposed to work

01:41:44.679 --> 01:41:50.800
was with um shoot now I forget what it's

01:41:47.880 --> 01:41:55.400
called convoluted Reverb so that means that audio was supposed to be like

01:41:52.840 --> 01:42:01.199
dynamic IC and real time and like instead of being a scripted or like um

01:41:59.199 --> 01:42:06.000
you know pre-done effect like when someone's

01:42:03.199 --> 01:42:10.560
underwater like it was supposed to just the the the audio was just supposed to

01:42:07.880 --> 01:42:14.599
like bounce off stuff in a natural way and so it was like completely broken out

01:42:12.159 --> 01:42:20.040
of the gate but now with true audio AMD users who happen to be running like

01:42:17.440 --> 01:42:26.040
three different cards um can use their Hardware DSP to accelerate the true

01:42:23.560 --> 01:42:30.239
audio convoluted Reverb stuff but don't worry guys you can still use it you can

01:42:27.880 --> 01:42:35.520
just offload it to your CPU um those performance improvements noted on

01:42:32.719 --> 01:42:41.480
certain resolutions like uh what is it yeah 4 4770k with a 270x and I believe

01:42:38.679 --> 01:42:46.440
it was 1440p got like a 1 FPS Improvement right so I it's like this is

01:42:44.920 --> 01:42:50.560
the same story that we talked about before where it really matters on the

01:42:48.560 --> 01:42:56.000
whole combination of your setup how well it's going to work out for you right um

01:42:52.760 --> 01:42:58.639
but yeah anyways moving on all right uh

01:42:56.000 --> 01:43:01.840
do it all right so Project Morpheus um I'm G to jump on specs real quick and

01:43:00.440 --> 01:43:06.239
then jump on things that aren't specs after that so it's going to be a 1920 by

01:43:04.199 --> 01:43:10.199
1080 screen I'm going to do a bunch of verses here at the beginning so 1920 by

01:43:08.360 --> 01:43:16.440
1080 screen and I'm going to compare this to development kit 2 from Oculus so

01:43:13.440 --> 01:43:19.400
I'm comparing the spec out probably

01:43:16.440 --> 01:43:22.800
release version of Morpheus with the current developer version of oculus not

01:43:21.440 --> 01:43:29.280
the release version of oculus cuz we have no idea so 1920 x 108 screen on the

01:43:25.679 --> 01:43:32.880
release version of Morpheus and 960 by

01:43:29.280 --> 01:43:36.840
1920 per eye on the Oculus one uh

01:43:32.880 --> 01:43:39.159
Morpheus will have a 90° fov and the dev

01:43:36.840 --> 01:43:43.040
kit 2 for Oculus is going to have 100 degree fov um you're going to be able to

01:43:41.360 --> 01:43:46.639
integrate your PlayStation camera and PlayStation move to take in part uh

01:43:45.159 --> 01:43:51.480
skeleton movement from the camera and like hand movement from the move or whatever like that which is actually

01:43:49.239 --> 01:43:56.440
really cool um because that's stuff that isn't like first party support from Ulus

01:43:53.639 --> 01:44:01.440
at least well the camera is but like you're going to have to get like a Hydra

01:43:58.840 --> 01:44:06.320
or um I can't remember the name of it but that other six a no not six axis

01:44:04.719 --> 01:44:12.480
that was the hydro the two Hand one no but the the other thing that's coming out that looks like handles made by the

01:44:10.080 --> 01:44:15.360
same company that does that made Hydra for them I can't remember I don't

01:44:13.840 --> 01:44:18.639
remember what it's called but that thing that's not out yet or something like

01:44:16.920 --> 01:44:22.400
that which could be really expensive um it's going to be a 5-in panel it's going

01:44:20.400 --> 01:44:25.599
to be used HDMI and USB but they have been corded hopefully won't be a thing

01:44:24.239 --> 01:44:30.639
it'll hopefully be Wireless at some point so that could be on release we're not sure yet uh it's going to be a 5 in

01:44:29.239 --> 01:44:34.719
panel now we're going to get into some quotes problems with these quotes before

01:44:32.800 --> 01:44:38.560
I even say them they're both from people at Oculus these are the main quotes I

01:44:36.599 --> 01:44:41.639
found so far they're obviously going to be negative because they're people from

01:44:39.719 --> 01:44:45.360
Oculus that being said Sony has approached Oculus and is trying to work

01:44:43.679 --> 01:44:48.920
together with them so that's a rumor that's a rumor allegedly so there's um

01:44:47.639 --> 01:44:56.800
I'm hold on I'm gonna find it because I've got it in the dock here sure I'm just so there's a post on Reddit where

01:44:53.480 --> 01:44:58.239
um here it is so guys I'll post this in

01:44:56.800 --> 01:45:04.599
the I'll post this in the chat so you guys should check this out after but it's basically just saying okay

01:45:01.320 --> 01:45:07.480
allegedly Sony and Oculus may be looking

01:45:04.599 --> 01:45:11.760
to work together on VR game development because Sony's solution isn't going to

01:45:09.520 --> 01:45:16.480
work on a PC and Oculus solution isn't going to work on a console so there's no

01:45:15.000 --> 01:45:20.520
real competition between them from a hardware perspective they might as well

01:45:18.480 --> 01:45:24.800
enable game developers to have a larger platform to launch their games on which

01:45:22.199 --> 01:45:30.760
is why e Valkyrie while it's an exclusive for Oculus is also an

01:45:28.199 --> 01:45:35.440
exclusive for Morpheus it's an exclusive for both of

01:45:33.840 --> 01:45:40.360
them which is really interesting and shows kind of a a backbone behind just

01:45:38.360 --> 01:45:45.520
like our relationship is exclusive oh God yes it is um so those quotes as we

01:45:43.560 --> 01:45:51.360
jump into it now is John carac saying calibrate PS4 VR expectations a game

01:45:48.800 --> 01:45:56.639
that ran at 60 FPS on PS3 could be done in VR on

01:45:53.679 --> 01:46:01.719
PS4 um but it's gonna have to have run at 60 FPS on PS3 so it have to be a

01:45:59.199 --> 01:46:06.560
1080p game at 60 FPS on PS3 to be able to run on Project Morpheus that's from

01:46:04.400 --> 01:46:10.440
John carmac John carmac has extremely high expectations whenever it comes to

01:46:07.840 --> 01:46:14.400
anything to do with displays and he's on Oculus his team which no matter what you

01:46:12.000 --> 01:46:17.960
think about platform usability they're still competitors he just kind of says

01:46:16.119 --> 01:46:21.960
whatever he wants though he does he totally does so I don't know I think I

01:46:20.880 --> 01:46:26.199
personally think he has a really good point but bar bear in mind that it's

01:46:24.199 --> 01:46:31.159
each side of the fence another quote this is coming from um Palmer like CEO

01:46:29.560 --> 01:46:35.920
of oculus and this is fairly old actually uh consoles are too limited to

01:46:33.280 --> 01:46:38.719
do what we want to do so if you're looking at a VR perspective and one of

01:46:37.400 --> 01:46:44.239
the biggest Pioneers in that industry and they're saying this thing is too limited to be able to do it now one of

01:46:41.880 --> 01:46:49.560
the reasons behind that quote actually was um the platform being very locked

01:46:46.880 --> 01:46:53.280
down you can't like upgrade graphics on a PlayStation um and that was actually a

01:46:51.639 --> 01:46:56.920
lot of the reasoning not NE neily that it's currently not powerful enough blah

01:46:54.639 --> 01:47:01.119
blah blah blah blah um that being said every single demo that I have played I

01:46:58.800 --> 01:47:03.920
have not played e Valkyrie on an Oculus yet and they're saying that it's going

01:47:02.599 --> 01:47:09.199
to work on Playstation anyways so I don't know what to say about that but every demo that I've played on an Oculus

01:47:06.920 --> 01:47:14.560
would easily run on a PS4 that being said a lot of them are kind

01:47:11.280 --> 01:47:16.719
of tech demos so far showing how it

01:47:14.560 --> 01:47:20.400
works not supposed to be fully-fledged games so we'll see that more in the

01:47:18.440 --> 01:47:25.000
future uh they have a bunch of really interesting Partners like epic games

01:47:22.040 --> 01:47:28.520
krych Autodesk unity and more and they're also going to be showcasing

01:47:26.199 --> 01:47:32.119
things like demos of Eve and Eve Valkyrie sorry and Thief so that's

01:47:30.679 --> 01:47:39.080
actually really interesting um funny story the demo was

01:47:35.239 --> 01:47:41.320
running on a uh Windows 7 PC and that's

01:47:39.080 --> 01:47:44.760
like I mean this is just typical we're not surprised yeah this happens every

01:47:43.280 --> 01:47:48.480
bloody time there's a new console refresh or whatever else it happens with

01:47:46.560 --> 01:47:51.760
XBox exclusive games it happens with PlayStation exclusive games which aren't

01:47:50.040 --> 01:47:55.920
supposed to be able to run on PC and they're running on a PC that makes me so

01:47:53.800 --> 01:48:00.360
mad it's like you already have the PC version just releas it um but yeah so

01:47:59.119 --> 01:48:03.360
like that actually wasn't surprising at all but it's still funny to joke about

01:48:02.239 --> 01:48:08.560
another thing that happened this week was what I was kind of just talking about was oculus rift development kit 2

01:48:07.280 --> 01:48:14.080
came out and everyone in their mom bought one so in 36 hours why is my

01:48:11.960 --> 01:48:19.920
notes gone on this there it is 12.5 th000 units sold in 36 hours that's

01:48:16.560 --> 01:48:21.080
4.375 million of Revenue and they

01:48:19.920 --> 01:48:25.920
haven't even actually released a commercial product yet yeah so I'll get it the commercial product thing soon so

01:48:24.679 --> 01:48:32.800
more specs on this I already talked about some of it just to give you a refresher it's 960 by1 1920 per I 100

01:48:30.400 --> 01:48:37.320
100 degree fov and now refresh rates they've made the refresh rates a lot

01:48:34.080 --> 01:48:40.480
better that's wrong why is this

01:48:37.320 --> 01:48:42.280
changed um I'm like sure that's wrong

01:48:40.480 --> 01:48:45.239
but you want to check the ref I'll check it real quick

01:48:45.480 --> 01:48:52.360
sure this is your baby man yeah why was

01:48:48.840 --> 01:48:54.840
that changed anyways um it's luckily I

01:48:52.360 --> 01:48:58.880
recognized is that it's up to 75 HZ running at 75 72 or 60 HZ refresh rate

01:48:57.719 --> 01:49:06.080
which is really interesting that actually makes a surprisingly big difference yeah um my 30-in monitor my

01:49:03.400 --> 01:49:11.080
305t I wasn't able to like crazy overclock it or anything to like you

01:49:08.480 --> 01:49:15.560
know 100 Herz or whatever but I did remember we went through this I managed

01:49:12.520 --> 01:49:18.119
to get it running at like 72 MH and it

01:49:15.560 --> 01:49:21.560
makes a really big difference Y and especially when things are that close to

01:49:19.360 --> 01:49:26.480
your face any amount of latency or lag is really no

01:49:23.960 --> 01:49:31.040
um so that is supposed to help a lot I haven't tried it yet um but who knows

01:49:29.440 --> 01:49:34.320
low persistence so we're looking at 2 milliseconds 3 milliseconds or full

01:49:32.719 --> 01:49:37.560
which is going to be really interesting that's coming in with the OLED display

01:49:35.760 --> 01:49:40.840
being able to switch on and off so that there isn't a frame sitting there for a

01:49:39.000 --> 01:49:44.239
really long time this comes in again any amount of latency or lag is very

01:49:42.639 --> 01:49:48.920
noticeable when it's that close to your face and when you're when you're that uh

01:49:47.280 --> 01:49:52.800
when the presence is that high when you're that in gr ingrown in this thing

01:49:51.199 --> 01:49:56.280
if there's any amount of latency it feels really weird your brain is going

01:49:54.760 --> 01:49:59.760
to have issues with that so that's probably going to help it as well uh

01:49:58.080 --> 01:50:03.080
it's going to have a gyroscope accelerometer and a magnom meter which

01:50:01.159 --> 01:50:07.840
is not super surprising and a built-in latency tester which is actually really

01:50:04.840 --> 01:50:11.360
cool so this is going to be U motion to

01:50:07.840 --> 01:50:13.199
to to uh pixel essentially so you better

01:50:11.360 --> 01:50:16.880
explain exactly what that means so if you move and there's supposed to be

01:50:15.199 --> 01:50:20.520
Motion in the game how long does it take for that to actually appear on the

01:50:18.560 --> 01:50:23.880
screen because that's going to feel really weird and that's going to really

01:50:22.080 --> 01:50:28.239
disconnect you from The Experience if you go like this and it takes a few

01:50:26.320 --> 01:50:32.159
seconds and it's like and that's the main reason why people liked Oculus

01:50:30.199 --> 01:50:36.159
already was a lot of VR experiences in the past had this issue where you turn

01:50:34.119 --> 01:50:39.960
and then it would catch up and it would kind of like this actually happened

01:50:38.239 --> 01:50:43.000
where you you'd turn and then it would go like past your vision because it's

01:50:41.360 --> 01:50:48.079
predicting and then it would like slot back you turn it just did this thing all

01:50:45.560 --> 01:50:51.960
the time um so that was already really good and now it's supposed to be a lot

01:50:49.239 --> 01:50:55.119
better so that's going to help a lot um there's there's the external camera

01:50:53.440 --> 01:50:59.280
which we saw in Crystal Cove so it has tracking ireds all across the front now

01:50:57.320 --> 01:51:03.679
there's problems with this um and this has been voiced by a lot more people

01:51:01.400 --> 01:51:09.400
than just me but especially in games like uh Valkyrie if you want to flip

01:51:06.360 --> 01:51:11.880
over in Valkyrie so you go like this and

01:51:09.400 --> 01:51:16.320
there's tracking IR LED camera sitting right in front of you and you take all

01:51:13.480 --> 01:51:19.599
those IR LEDs and go nope you can't see them anymore there's probably going to

01:51:18.159 --> 01:51:25.639
be issues I've played roller coaster games where I've done a 180 in my chair

01:51:21.560 --> 01:51:26.520
the camera can no longer see my my irls

01:51:25.639 --> 01:51:33.920
there's there's going to be some interesting stuff with this and that comes into a quote from pmer saying DK2

01:51:32.159 --> 01:51:39.000
development kit 2 is really for developers it not for consumers we don't

01:51:36.639 --> 01:51:42.199
need consumers to buy this we don't want consumers to buy this because the

01:51:40.400 --> 01:51:46.360
consumer version is really going to be so much

01:51:44.079 --> 01:51:52.840
better I'm buying one and I've recommended some people buy them

01:51:49.079 --> 01:51:54.760
but that was based on the rumors that

01:51:52.840 --> 01:51:58.440
DK2 was going to be pretty darn close to the release version that was partially

01:51:56.280 --> 01:52:01.440
based on that yes and it's based on the main people that I'm recommending it to

01:52:00.040 --> 01:52:07.960
are people that are going to just play with it a lot no matter what and they'll get a lot of usage out of it so it'll be

01:52:04.320 --> 01:52:10.960
okay but don't buy this expecting for

01:52:07.960 --> 01:52:12.239
everything to be like sugar and cream

01:52:10.960 --> 01:52:17.599
it's not all just going to work out of the gate there isn't a ton of things that work really well with it yet you're

01:52:15.480 --> 01:52:22.159
going to be playing a lot of tech demos or not playing with it um there going be

01:52:21.119 --> 01:52:26.360
a lot of things that are different with the release version um and he wants to

01:52:24.320 --> 01:52:30.920
make that clear he's and he crushed expectations on multiple platforms of

01:52:28.800 --> 01:52:34.679
people saying that it's the that DK2 is going to be the same thing as the release version which I actually thought

01:52:33.320 --> 01:52:38.960
was fairly true because most of the rumors have been fairly true so far and

01:52:36.639 --> 01:52:42.880
that was a pretty big rumor um one thing that they're interested in doing is

01:52:40.239 --> 01:52:48.320
making uh integrated audio because they're tired of big clunky headphones

01:52:45.159 --> 01:52:49.880
again with the valkyrie uh idea if you

01:52:48.320 --> 01:52:54.280
flip your head over and your headphones fall off that's really immersion

01:52:51.560 --> 01:52:59.719
breaking that being said it's going to increase the cost and I'm probably just

01:52:55.760 --> 01:53:01.040
going to want to replace them so right I

01:52:59.719 --> 01:53:04.280
don't know hopefully they maybe have a model that doesn't have it built in

01:53:02.840 --> 01:53:08.119
that's going to be on the consumer version so maybe but again I also doubt

01:53:07.040 --> 01:53:14.400
it it's probably going to be on every single one they'll probably go Model T style you can have any color you want as

01:53:12.040 --> 01:53:18.639
long as it's black yeah yeah so like wouldn't be surprised if that's a thing

01:53:15.760 --> 01:53:22.079
at all um but we'll see it's it is definitely going to be removable that is

01:53:20.360 --> 01:53:25.000
something that he said so you can take them off or just not use them or

01:53:23.920 --> 01:53:28.639
something CU I want to use my own earbuds yeah your own earbuds or your

01:53:27.320 --> 01:53:32.079
own headphones if you come up with some solution so they don't fly off your head or something like that like people are

01:53:30.880 --> 01:53:36.719
going to want to do their own thing he realizes that he knows that uh he's a

01:53:34.880 --> 01:53:40.920
audio freak anyways my headphones would probably be kind of awesome cuz like the

01:53:39.000 --> 01:53:45.199
uh it comes like this like it doesn't sit in the same spot as the headband and

01:53:42.920 --> 01:53:48.679
they clamp quite tight yeah so like it might work mine won't at all mine will

01:53:46.679 --> 01:53:51.920
go flying right off my head so I I know I'll have to figure something out but

01:53:49.840 --> 01:53:56.239
I'll probably just wear euds so like I don't I don't know not a big deal but

01:53:53.560 --> 01:53:59.400
like yeah guys don't necessarily go rush and buy this I know a lot of people did

01:53:58.199 --> 01:54:04.520
a lot of people that I sit in the team streak with and talk on the Afterparty with have like all bought it and I'm

01:54:03.280 --> 01:54:10.040
like guys

01:54:06.280 --> 01:54:13.079
guys maybe no all right our last topic

01:54:10.040 --> 01:54:15.599
of the day Walmart announces video game

01:54:13.079 --> 01:54:20.199
tradein program for store credit so I guess the advantage of trading in your

01:54:17.199 --> 01:54:21.760
games at Walmart versus anywhere else is

01:54:20.199 --> 01:54:27.599
that you can buy whatever you want with the credit you get you could go in and

01:54:24.119 --> 01:54:30.480
literally trade Super Smash Brothers for

01:54:27.599 --> 01:54:33.360
eggs if you really really wanted to and then since you're like a Smash Brothers

01:54:32.239 --> 01:54:37.599
player you'd probably want to like throw them at people or something do they have eggs and SM I don't think so I don't

01:54:35.800 --> 01:54:40.800
know where I was going with that I know they don't have eggs and Smash Brothers

01:54:39.000 --> 01:54:47.000
well there isn't there that one character who's an egg character uh the

01:54:44.199 --> 01:54:51.800
last one I played was brawl so I don't remember anyway not the point games but

01:54:50.360 --> 01:54:56.719
not consoles can be traded and they actually started this pilot program back

01:54:53.440 --> 01:54:58.639
in 2009 and you need the retail box for

01:54:56.719 --> 01:55:02.159
the game so folks trading in much older games are probably still going to need

01:54:59.760 --> 01:55:07.800
to go to gam spot or something like that and the program for the resale of used

01:55:05.159 --> 01:55:11.440
games that come in is not open yet but is going to be coming later this year

01:55:09.679 --> 01:55:16.040
but employees are able to buy them already the average credit payout credit

01:55:14.199 --> 01:55:20.320
payout per game is $35 which seems like something that

01:55:18.079 --> 01:55:25.159
they're bragging about now but will not be able to sustain later yeah because

01:55:23.560 --> 01:55:28.639
they have to make money on it otherwise how is this going to work and we lied

01:55:26.800 --> 01:55:36.719
and there's another topic um do you want to talk about this at all or are you able to able to

01:55:33.280 --> 01:55:41.440
yeah what do you mean well the thing

01:55:36.719 --> 01:55:45.040
that the are you able to talk about

01:55:41.440 --> 01:55:48.000
it I have oh no okay forget it okay so

01:55:45.040 --> 01:55:51.880
wild star there's a there's a 20% coupon code pre-order I guess that's all we

01:55:49.520 --> 01:55:56.239
really have to say guys thank you for watching the show if you are wondering

01:55:54.360 --> 01:56:03.960
