1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000
We've had this before, haven't we?

2
00:00:03,600 --> 00:00:05,600
Hey, what's up y'all?

3
00:00:10,600 --> 00:00:13,960
Yes, this is them. Yeah, they're cool

4
00:00:16,440 --> 00:00:18,440
Hello nerds

5
00:00:23,680 --> 00:00:29,160
You guys forgot what I was doing in the chat I was posting a water bottle emote every time I took a drink

6
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:32,000
Uh-huh

7
00:00:33,120 --> 00:00:37,120
And I'll friggin do it again boink there it is

8
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:47,280
You guys should do that individually for yourselves for the rest of the show, but it's don't explain it to the people that show up late

9
00:00:48,600 --> 00:00:51,120
Just have their randomly be water bottles the whole time

10
00:00:53,480 --> 00:00:57,480
You remind me of Greek yogurt What is that?

11
00:00:59,000 --> 00:01:03,080
Means you're a stand-up guy and kind of fat you see sleep

12
00:01:03,840 --> 00:01:08,960
Protein is fat. You're stiff. You're thick. You're a stiffy kind of guy

13
00:01:14,280 --> 00:01:19,560
I've lost that milk fat. I think it's seven pounds already this year nice a

14
00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:25,240
Little ahead of schedule nice Is alright. I've lost more

15
00:01:25,960 --> 00:01:29,680
Got him. That's not good. I have my teeth out so I couldn't eat much

16
00:01:32,160 --> 00:01:37,440
Okay at risk of TMI Yvonne was like patting my butt and she's like where to go

17
00:01:38,720 --> 00:01:40,720
Where's my cake?

18
00:01:42,160 --> 00:01:45,400
She didn't say it like that because she's Yvonne, but you know yes, yeah, yeah

19
00:01:47,760 --> 00:01:52,160
Where's my cake at? All right

20
00:01:52,160 --> 00:01:54,160
Let's let's do this thing. Shall we?

21
00:01:56,040 --> 00:02:01,120
What are we even talking about today? We got deep-seek. We got another 20 minute

22
00:02:02,160 --> 00:02:06,320
You know addressing the controversy start. I'm kidding. I'm kidding

23
00:02:07,960 --> 00:02:09,960
kidding

24
00:02:11,520 --> 00:02:17,200
I need that like Green Day song wake me up when September ends, but it's like wake me up when we're in January

25
00:02:17,200 --> 00:02:22,640
Well, January is gonna be over real quick me up when people shut up. You might not even be asleep yet by the time January

26
00:02:22,760 --> 00:02:30,520
is over There is no chance actually I guarantee you I will not be there is no way I

27
00:02:32,320 --> 00:02:38,760
Will be awake until February. I promise you AJ Geist says wake me up when August 2023

28
00:02:40,640 --> 00:02:43,200
It ends when other people decide it ends

29
00:02:46,560 --> 00:02:51,040
Man we moved on like multiple times

30
00:02:52,760 --> 00:02:55,200
Alright, let's do this thing

31
00:02:57,440 --> 00:03:00,040
Really enjoy that there's just random water bottles

32
00:03:01,800 --> 00:03:07,800
Where's the bread though? So when you eat something you post bread when you take a bite of something you post bread

33
00:03:07,800 --> 00:03:13,960
We take a drink of something you post water bottle and just don't explain it to anyone in the live show

34
00:03:16,120 --> 00:03:21,440
Don't spam it don't spam it no no no you have to actually have taken a drink of something ideally water

35
00:03:21,800 --> 00:03:25,240
And then you post water bottle or take a bite of something and then you post

36
00:03:26,160 --> 00:03:30,040
It's not even funny unless they do it in the YouTube chat or something because they all know now

37
00:03:30,840 --> 00:03:34,840
No, but like Two hours from now

38
00:03:35,200 --> 00:03:40,200
There will be a lot of like people come and go with live streams. That's super that's a thing

39
00:03:41,160 --> 00:03:46,360
Well, what you just said it's not even if they wouldn't it's captive audience once they start watching

40
00:03:46,360 --> 00:03:52,120
They're literally not once they start watching me I am literally the most important thing in the world and they could never possibly

41
00:03:53,240 --> 00:03:56,680
Watch anything they would they would have to just they would have to be unintelligent

42
00:03:57,600 --> 00:04:02,400
They'd have to be they have to be they'd have to be that's so that's it. You can't tune out now. Yeah

43
00:04:03,240 --> 00:04:07,960
Or else you're just Willing spy L is for narcissists. Can we get like?

44
00:04:08,760 --> 00:04:12,160
Can we get like like what would be our narcissist emote?

45
00:04:14,520 --> 00:04:17,920
We'll have to like keep doing narcissistic dog whistles throughout the show

46
00:04:18,680 --> 00:04:25,000
Selling a mug that says L L's for narcissists on it. That's a reference genuinely very few people are gonna get

47
00:04:26,560 --> 00:04:30,680
Well, I mean some guy said it but like realistically who the f**k is Dan Besser, so

48
00:04:32,760 --> 00:04:39,680
There's another WAN audience only reference yeah, or rather the other one's not WAN only but it's only in that one video that one time

49
00:04:41,080 --> 00:04:46,920
Yes, this is pre-WAN. This is definitely pre-WAN. Can we please own update what's going on message?

50
00:04:46,960 --> 00:04:50,120
Great warehouse support. Oh for what? What do they want to know?

51
00:04:50,120 --> 00:04:55,440
So I don't get it. I ordered the commuter backpack on December 26th still haven't shipped what's going on with that

52
00:04:55,440 --> 00:05:00,920
Can we please own update with what's going on? Oh, they're shipping out the waves of orders as soon as they get them

53
00:05:01,720 --> 00:05:04,400
Is there some indication can someone figure out what wave they're in?

54
00:05:05,200 --> 00:05:13,560
I think it should say on your order confirmation I think wave one is almost done or done and it should be wave two stuff now

55
00:05:14,520 --> 00:05:18,600
I think

56
00:05:19,760 --> 00:05:22,040
They sent out an email about shipping

57
00:05:23,640 --> 00:05:26,760
Your wave is on your original confirmation email. Okay, there you go

58
00:05:27,760 --> 00:05:36,340
Okay. Well, there you go Just because your wave one order maybe has been shifted doesn't necessarily mean it has arrived it

59
00:05:38,120 --> 00:05:41,440
But yeah, we're we are getting them out as soon as possible

60
00:05:42,440 --> 00:05:44,960
And from what I can understand

61
00:05:45,560 --> 00:05:48,040
It shouldn't be impacted by tariffs

62
00:05:49,080 --> 00:05:52,240
yet Based on what we've heard so far

63
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:56,600
so We're not ready to make a full proper

64
00:05:56,960 --> 00:06:02,920
Sort of address as far as all that goes yet because right now the information is incomplete at best

65
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:10,880
but if you're if you're just kind of like stressed that like oh my goodness tariffs are going into effect this weekend and like

66
00:06:10,880 --> 00:06:13,920
I'm gonna get dinged 25% on my backpack

67
00:06:14,480 --> 00:06:18,800
That does not appear to be the case. So would it be on new purchases?

68
00:06:19,400 --> 00:06:22,080
Can they even track that tariffs happen on landing? Don't they?

69
00:06:22,840 --> 00:06:30,240
They would happen on landing in the country that is applying the tariffs. So theoretically if something country of origin China came

70
00:06:30,240 --> 00:06:39,760
Through Canada into the US it could be impacted But I'm not the expert on this and we have actual people who actually are smart and know this stuff cool working on it at CW

71
00:06:39,760 --> 00:06:42,000
And they're gonna they're gonna get that

72
00:06:42,800 --> 00:06:45,440
Tough job for y'all. Thank you for working on it

73
00:06:51,840 --> 00:06:55,600
DiGear not the order page the order confirmation email

74
00:06:57,240 --> 00:07:00,000
That should be where you get the the wave

75
00:07:00,720 --> 00:07:04,160
should be the product page talks about the wave that

76
00:07:05,720 --> 00:07:10,600
What you would be in if you bought it right now Mm-hmm

77
00:07:11,120 --> 00:07:13,120
Mod Mat will come when it is ready

78
00:07:16,760 --> 00:07:24,840
Wafflehead asks given Yvonne is from Singapore I'm gonna not go with the rest of your question because Yvonne is not from Singapore. Yeah

79
00:07:25,360 --> 00:07:29,520
I think there's a Singaporean actress who is also named Yvonne Ho. Oh

80
00:07:30,760 --> 00:07:34,040
And so there's like there's like a whole thing where

81
00:07:34,760 --> 00:07:38,840
I Am supposedly married to this actress

82
00:07:39,720 --> 00:07:45,720
Which is two wives pretty racist because I'm surprised you have so much time. They don't look like each other

83
00:07:47,480 --> 00:07:51,880
Yeah, Yvonne Ho is known for this and apparently

84
00:07:53,560 --> 00:07:59,280
Yeah, like it's there's there's yeah, there's like it's a whole thing that I'm apparently

85
00:08:00,520 --> 00:08:02,520
Married to this actress

86
00:08:04,120 --> 00:08:09,480
There's like a handful of like AI generated articles that started it and then I

87
00:08:10,000 --> 00:08:16,360
Can't find any of it right now, but it's definitely a thing. So you could see your wedding photo

88
00:08:16,360 --> 00:08:21,240
And then there's photos of not her. Yeah. Yeah, there you go. Yeah, it's a whole it's a whole thing man

89
00:08:23,240 --> 00:08:30,160
What those are not Yvonne and no well and no Yvonne is not a Chinese Communist Party member

90
00:08:31,120 --> 00:08:36,720
What it says that in there too. No, no someone in chat. I don't think she's ever even been to mainland China. Oh, I

91
00:08:38,320 --> 00:08:43,720
Have maybe I am yeah, you could be what you look like you would be yeah, yeah

92
00:08:44,920 --> 00:08:49,800
Got dead eyes Dead eyes Luke. That's why we call him that

93
00:08:50,320 --> 00:08:57,780
Dead eyes like just bags. No, that's not based on anything. I mean might have to make everything about you

94
00:08:58,780 --> 00:09:03,940
Some kind of fucking narcissists. Yeah, yeah, I'm better at you than it

95
00:09:05,820 --> 00:09:12,660
I'm the best narcissist. What are you gonna do, but probably nothing cuz you're not good at stuff cuz I'm the best

96
00:09:21,980 --> 00:09:26,420
You know who you should trust me trust me, bro, not him, bro

97
00:09:26,580 --> 00:09:34,300
Trust me, bro. Have we actually gotten past like this being upsetting into this is just kind of comical now

98
00:09:36,020 --> 00:09:39,220
Maybe is that is that where we've gotten to I

99
00:09:41,500 --> 00:09:46,140
Mean at a certain point Just like to deal with the process

100
00:09:47,420 --> 00:09:52,660
It's easier to still I don't know. It's so tiring. Yeah

101
00:09:52,660 --> 00:10:00,260
I mean the challenge is that the human capacity for imagination is much greater than the human capacity to painstakingly

102
00:10:00,980 --> 00:10:09,020
Go through receipts and present information in an organized and easily digestible fashion. Yeah, that's the cold hard truth

103
00:10:10,900 --> 00:10:14,140
Yeah Why don't we get this show started?

104
00:10:14,500 --> 00:10:17,420
The Luke needs to talk over Linus all stream

105
00:10:18,100 --> 00:10:22,460
The L is for a narcissist thing still works. Yeah, really does

106
00:10:25,060 --> 00:10:29,860
My name even has to I mean, yeah, and like you don't even have to have L is for a narcissist

107
00:10:29,860 --> 00:10:34,300
You don't even have to have your name start with L. You could just be someone who's taken some L's recently

108
00:10:34,300 --> 00:10:38,620
I'm trying to keep talking over you then you got all the L's it's impossible. It's impossible

109
00:10:44,140 --> 00:10:46,140
I

110
00:10:49,780 --> 00:10:52,740
Need my first and middle sorry, what's that Luke?

111
00:10:53,980 --> 00:10:58,900
My first and middle name are both Bible names. Does that make me even more narcissistic?

112
00:11:00,020 --> 00:11:04,020
My first and middle name are both Bible names, too. So boom got him

113
00:11:04,020 --> 00:11:08,580
Well, see how I took whatever you said and I Made it about myself. You see that

114
00:11:08,740 --> 00:11:13,340
It was pretty good. I think I'm winning. That's a point for me right then David. No

115
00:11:13,580 --> 00:11:20,340
incorrect Then why are you talking? Why are you talking about yourself and what you're doing? That's a point for Dan?

116
00:11:20,340 --> 00:11:25,260
I'm sorry sir point for Dan. Oh You can't apologize

117
00:11:25,260 --> 00:11:27,260
I'm talking to myself. Now you lost

118
00:11:30,260 --> 00:11:36,340
For only being recognized for me now. Yeah, I think that's a bonus point. Why are they talking to me?

119
00:11:36,340 --> 00:11:40,100
Oh, no There we go

120
00:11:40,100 --> 00:11:43,500
How are you guys doing I muted their mics, they don't know that

121
00:11:45,700 --> 00:11:48,340
They can't thank no no one from chat can hear you

122
00:11:50,180 --> 00:11:56,760
They're still talking point I would be a winner. Sorry you guys were muted. What were you saying? Wow you

123
00:12:01,220 --> 00:12:07,900
Never mess with the producer That's something I've learned running a company. Okay. You never mess with your video editors

124
00:12:08,220 --> 00:12:13,740
You never mess with your IT infrastructure people. Okay, you never mess with I

125
00:12:14,460 --> 00:12:17,580
Don't know who else do you never mess with generally? It's like everyone. Yeah

126
00:12:18,340 --> 00:12:21,420
Pretty much in a company like this pretty much anyone

127
00:12:22,740 --> 00:12:24,740
No, it's just me

128
00:12:28,180 --> 00:12:32,160
I have some control I have some control I can do that

129
00:12:33,160 --> 00:12:40,080
Though hold on he controls the controller. I can also mute down. I just muted Dan boom uno reverse got him

130
00:12:40,880 --> 00:12:45,760
Now he's gone. He's faking. What's he faking? Yeah, I don't believe him. I think he was just moving his mouth

131
00:12:45,760 --> 00:12:49,220
I don't think he was talking you guys are so gullible. It's actually pathetic

132
00:12:54,320 --> 00:13:00,200
All right All right, let's do this thing this whole time Dan talks about how it's so hard to respond all the merge messages

133
00:13:00,200 --> 00:13:02,200
And he's just like generating the responses all the time

134
00:13:03,760 --> 00:13:09,720
No Screenscraper that just reads the question and automatically feeds it into an LLM now

135
00:13:09,720 --> 00:13:14,360
I think he's more sophisticated than needing a screen scraper. He wouldn't need that. Mm-hmm. Yeah

136
00:13:14,360 --> 00:13:17,920
He would get the he would get the plain text API, baby

137
00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:23,080
But I don't know if they're like is one Yeah, they probably not know

138
00:13:23,080 --> 00:13:28,840
That's why I said Dan would believe in his greatness so much that he would will one into existence

139
00:13:29,000 --> 00:13:33,880
So I'm sure he could just ask and then one would be I wouldn't ask I would tell oh

140
00:13:34,840 --> 00:13:40,040
That's more points for that. I think so many points. I think Dan won. He might be in the least of course. I was gonna win

141
00:13:41,000 --> 00:13:44,680
I guess it's another point ridiculous Damn

142
00:13:44,680 --> 00:13:48,840
Get it together. All right. I'm launching the thing. I'm resuming the selected now

143
00:13:49,720 --> 00:13:54,520
As an AI merge message model. I do not have the ability to read or respond to anything but merge messages

144
00:13:55,480 --> 00:14:01,080
What's up everyone welcome to the land show I told you I was starting the thing

145
00:14:01,080 --> 00:14:07,240
We've got a great show lined up for you guys this week Deep seek has been causing deep panic

146
00:14:07,640 --> 00:14:13,720
NVIDIA's stock is down. I mean it's my top last time I looked at it. It was like 11 percent which sounds like a lot

147
00:14:14,440 --> 00:14:16,840
until you consider that NVIDIA's worth like

148
00:14:17,800 --> 00:14:20,920
Two to three trillion dollars. Then you know it's a lot. Then you know

149
00:14:21,880 --> 00:14:29,720
Take the punchline. Anyway, the point is got them We're also going to be talking about our hardware reviewers just kind of shouting into the void

150
00:14:30,120 --> 00:14:36,120
Like the percentage of gamers that are actually watching reviews. Is it significant? What else we got this week?

151
00:14:36,280 --> 00:14:40,520
You can poison AI in even more fun and creative ways now and

152
00:14:42,360 --> 00:14:48,520
Sony removed psn requirements for four pc games. I think we talked about them adding psn requirements for

153
00:14:48,920 --> 00:14:56,120
uh Helldivers and maybe horizon zeroed on maybe but they did it for spiderman 2 last was to

154
00:14:56,520 --> 00:15:00,520
You know, we do the topic later, right? We could have talked about right now. It's pretty short

155
00:15:00,760 --> 00:15:04,040
Yeah, but we're fine, but we're not going to but we have to we have to

156
00:15:04,840 --> 00:15:06,840
drag them on

157
00:15:08,680 --> 00:15:10,680
Make them keep watching

158
00:15:15,720 --> 00:15:17,720
Really

159
00:15:19,480 --> 00:15:26,040
You The show today is brought to you by vessie odu and odd

160
00:15:26,520 --> 00:15:34,120
pieces Also by our rap partner dbrand and our chair partner secret lab. Why don't we jump straight into our

161
00:15:34,840 --> 00:15:39,640
What's the title today? What is our headline topic? Oh, does what we do even matter?

162
00:15:40,280 --> 00:15:46,200
This was actually inspired by a really cool visual that paul's hardware created

163
00:15:46,200 --> 00:15:48,680
That was awesome showing how the 5080

164
00:15:49,560 --> 00:15:55,480
Kind of blows compared to previous generational uplifts from 80 class cards

165
00:15:55,960 --> 00:16:01,160
Now our review wasn't exactly glowing either. We pretty much pointed out that it's

166
00:16:02,360 --> 00:16:10,040
A bit better, but if this doesn't beat a 4090 the uh upcoming 5070 contrary to what NVIDIA has been claiming

167
00:16:10,520 --> 00:16:15,240
Absolutely will not beat a 4090, but the question that

168
00:16:16,280 --> 00:16:23,640
Looking at paul's graphs and looking at the at the at the viewer retention for our 5080 review and not just ours

169
00:16:23,720 --> 00:16:28,280
But 5080 reviews around the internet the question that it raised in my mind was

170
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:35,080
Does what we're doing even make a difference and i'm not trying to be defeatist here or anything

171
00:16:35,640 --> 00:16:39,320
But the 5090 literally

172
00:16:39,320 --> 00:16:43,160
Sold out in seconds. Well, there was like none of them literally

173
00:16:43,720 --> 00:16:50,200
Instantaneously, this is a 2000 Four of anything it's going to sell pretty quick. This is a $2,000

174
00:16:50,680 --> 00:16:55,880
This is a $2,000 GPU and then the 5080 apparently bots scalped

175
00:16:56,280 --> 00:17:01,960
The entire stock for multiple e-u countries before the official launch thanks to a leaked distributor link

176
00:17:02,760 --> 00:17:09,720
After signing a zotac 5090 at microcenter jay's two cents found the thing listed on marketplace for

177
00:17:09,960 --> 00:17:13,960
5800 dollars later that day

178
00:17:14,200 --> 00:17:19,880
Which i find disgusting they had an opportunity to price it at five thousand eighty dollars

179
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:23,560
And they went for five thousand eight hundred dollars

180
00:17:24,680 --> 00:17:26,680
That's outrageous that is outrageous

181
00:17:27,960 --> 00:17:33,560
It is is joke either way is outrageous. Please for the love of god slash s um nope

182
00:17:34,440 --> 00:17:40,440
You're serious and here is a hilarious post that is now gone from r slash pc mr

183
00:17:40,440 --> 00:17:45,400
Oh, it was up before the show justifying justifying scalping. Um

184
00:17:46,040 --> 00:17:49,960
Oh, but i'm not bad because i only scalped one card. So so here's the thing

185
00:17:50,920 --> 00:17:54,200
scalpers are clearly getting utterly

186
00:17:54,200 --> 00:18:01,240
Detached from reality amounts of money for these things because they wouldn't price these things so high if nobody was buying them

187
00:18:01,640 --> 00:18:06,040
NVIDIA clearly has zero incentive whatsoever to lower pricing

188
00:18:06,360 --> 00:18:10,680
We talked about this in our recent video is now a good time to buy a pc

189
00:18:11,160 --> 00:18:17,160
Right, we talked about how what happened the last time around that we had a huge spike in pricing was

190
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:21,560
The dominant player in the market and that's invidia noticed that

191
00:18:22,120 --> 00:18:25,480
Oh People will totally pay that much for this stuff

192
00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:31,880
But they'll keep the prices high Whether we're paying tariffs or whether there is you know

193
00:18:32,520 --> 00:18:36,440
Covid inflation or whatever the case may be if people will pay it

194
00:18:36,680 --> 00:18:41,560
That's what the market will bear and that's going to make our shareholders real happy no competition

195
00:18:42,040 --> 00:18:50,280
um And so i'm looking at it going we we spend how many how many person hours

196
00:18:50,520 --> 00:18:54,600
How many do you think went into something like our 50 90 and 50 80 reviews?

197
00:18:54,840 --> 00:18:58,760
And i i'm combining them because a lot of the work was somewhat overlapping

198
00:18:59,480 --> 00:19:03,240
Because we used it was the same driver release from invidia for both cards

199
00:19:04,040 --> 00:19:08,600
A lot of the testing for 50 80 review was done on the 50 90 review and stuff like that

200
00:19:08,840 --> 00:19:15,880
It completely dominated the output from the Labs from the the testers and nick and some other people being involved for

201
00:19:16,440 --> 00:19:20,600
Uh Probably a solid like two three weeks

202
00:19:20,840 --> 00:19:27,640
Yeah, and then we had one writer dedicated to it for a couple of weeks probably more like two and a half

203
00:19:28,120 --> 00:19:34,680
And then there's the you know, we went to cES largely for information that informed that oh, yeah, that's true

204
00:19:34,760 --> 00:19:40,840
So I think that counts. I mean it would it be fair for me to say that there's hundreds of hours. Oh easily in those reviews easily

205
00:19:41,560 --> 00:19:47,400
so We say hey this thing is not really that worth it

206
00:19:47,960 --> 00:19:51,400
It sells out immediately people pay scalper prices for them

207
00:19:51,800 --> 00:19:58,920
And here's where this thought here's where this thought train kind of led to I was looking at the numbers the number of views on our

208
00:19:59,000 --> 00:20:05,400
reviews for these cards and not just ours um, but also from from other reviewers around the web and

209
00:20:06,760 --> 00:20:14,520
I would say That looking at the 50 80 and the 50 90 the tam so the total addressable market that the total number of people

210
00:20:14,840 --> 00:20:19,800
That actually watch a hardware review video for a GPU

211
00:20:20,600 --> 00:20:26,280
Is probably somewhere between the lamborghini of the GPU's either way because tends to get more views

212
00:20:26,520 --> 00:20:32,200
No, we sure. Oh, yeah. Yeah, sure because we we get way fewer views on the cards that people buy more actually

213
00:20:32,200 --> 00:20:37,800
Yes, yeah So even for the best case scenario the tam is probably somewhere between

214
00:20:38,280 --> 00:20:41,880
four and six million

215
00:20:41,880 --> 00:20:45,080
People because there's a lot of cross talk people watch more than one video

216
00:20:45,080 --> 00:20:49,080
There'll be a ton of overlap because we aren't the only ones who for years have said hey

217
00:20:49,560 --> 00:20:52,440
Don't just take one reviews word for it go watch all them

218
00:20:52,600 --> 00:20:58,520
Yeah, you go go watch more so that you can get multiple perspectives because everyone's going to have sort of slightly different ideas about

219
00:20:58,840 --> 00:21:04,280
What they think is important and I will say As kind of expected this generation was like

220
00:21:04,840 --> 00:21:09,000
One of the best examples of that. Yeah, there was a lot of different

221
00:21:09,960 --> 00:21:15,320
Outlets that took different angles on this. I mean you pointed out paul's earlier if I remember correctly

222
00:21:16,280 --> 00:21:22,920
Hardware knucks did a like let's see it get CPU throttled by using older and older. Yeah, use different things like that's kind of

223
00:21:22,920 --> 00:21:25,400
Different approaches, which I thought was really cool awesome

224
00:21:26,120 --> 00:21:30,280
So yeah, this this was this generation proved our point better than like literally ever before

225
00:21:30,280 --> 00:21:40,680
So if you have only looked at one go look at more So here's my problem with that if the tam for people in these quite overlapping circles, right who watch hardware reviews is

226
00:21:41,000 --> 00:21:45,720
Somewhere in that let's let's say for the sake of argument that i'm totally off and it's like 10 million

227
00:21:46,040 --> 00:21:52,840
Let's let's say it's way more sure The total number okay almost certainly is because of other languages and stuff sure sure

228
00:21:53,400 --> 00:21:58,920
That's fine The total number of pc gamers is estimated to be somewhere between one and two

229
00:22:00,200 --> 00:22:06,120
billion yeah, so like doesn't even matter if it's six or ten and and and but

230
00:22:07,000 --> 00:22:10,600
I want to make sure that we're we're giving this kind of a balanced discussion, right?

231
00:22:10,680 --> 00:22:18,040
Because I think there's a strong argument to be made for micro influence like micro influencers people who influence their family and friends

232
00:22:18,840 --> 00:22:23,160
They might they might stay up on everything and watch all the reviews and everything like that

233
00:22:23,400 --> 00:22:27,080
And their friends might not but they might get the benefit of of those recommendations

234
00:22:27,080 --> 00:22:31,880
But even then so like the market is probably like three to four x the amount of people that watch the video

235
00:22:32,040 --> 00:22:40,680
Even then what's clear to me from these numbers is that the vast majority of people who buy a GPU who buy a gaming pc

236
00:22:41,480 --> 00:22:44,680
do not read a review and

237
00:22:49,000 --> 00:22:54,920
Not only that But even out of the people who do I couldn't help noticing that erin mr.

238
00:22:54,920 --> 00:23:01,240
Who's the boss actually has the highest performing 5090 video by a decent by by a fairly significant margin

239
00:23:01,720 --> 00:23:06,440
And if you want to if you want to sort of I think it's his fit if you want to reflect

240
00:23:07,080 --> 00:23:09,960
On you know what the difference is right? I think it's pretty clear

241
00:23:10,440 --> 00:23:15,640
He's got a lot of energy his style is so good. It's so engaging

242
00:23:16,360 --> 00:23:20,440
And I think and I think this one is really key. It's light on graphs

243
00:23:21,000 --> 00:23:27,640
Oh, yeah, there's like barely any have you looked luke have you looked at the retention on our 5090 video? No

244
00:23:28,520 --> 00:23:33,720
Okay, check this out And you know what in fairness this is a thick video

245
00:23:34,120 --> 00:23:40,520
We called it rtx 5090 review our big our rtx 5090 our biggest review ever

246
00:23:41,000 --> 00:23:46,840
So check this out out of the people those those millions of people that do watch a review

247
00:23:48,520 --> 00:23:51,640
This is how many of them actually watched the whole thing

248
00:23:51,720 --> 00:23:55,160
So we had below average retention a way below way below

249
00:23:55,800 --> 00:24:01,240
So the people who actually reached the conclusion who reached the sponsor segue is one third of them

250
00:24:03,800 --> 00:24:09,240
Most people didn't get past 1440p and 4k raster

251
00:24:11,480 --> 00:24:16,120
We're below 50% by the time we get to blackwell architecture and neural rendering

252
00:24:17,720 --> 00:24:23,560
Is this a situation where like we should we should offload more stuff to the the site?

253
00:24:24,200 --> 00:24:31,000
I I I'm I'm not even asking what's actionable yet. Yeah, I'm mostly just asking take it's something to consider

254
00:24:31,080 --> 00:24:39,240
I'm just asking Are we just are we just shouting into the void? Here's an argument. Yeah, no

255
00:24:39,560 --> 00:24:44,920
I want I want to have a conversation. I want to have a conversation about this because this is this has definitely been

256
00:24:47,000 --> 00:24:50,120
Enlightening distressing are you part of the problem?

257
00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:57,960
Maybe I'm gonna give it the spiciest possible intro. Maybe my reason my reason come at me. You've already stated you're getting a 5090

258
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:05,720
How many people out there? It doesn't even matter how connected to the tech industry. They are it doesn't matter. It's irrelevant

259
00:25:05,800 --> 00:25:10,200
They they have a certain current graphics card. They were gonna buy this completely regardless

260
00:25:10,360 --> 00:25:15,880
They might be interested in the performance. They might be going and buying a 5090 but being like I like wish it was better

261
00:25:15,960 --> 00:25:19,960
But they're gonna do it anyways But like let me put it this way

262
00:25:20,600 --> 00:25:26,440
We are getting deep into the answer to that question in our 8k gaming video

263
00:25:27,240 --> 00:25:34,280
So MSI wanted some sponsored 5090 stuff so they could show off their 5090 and we were like

264
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:44,280
Let's game at 8k again So we're so we're milking that stupid 8k tv in the lounge beautiful and we're gaming at 8k

265
00:25:45,480 --> 00:25:54,440
again And what adds really a really interesting through line to that video is that both of the hosts

266
00:25:55,320 --> 00:26:02,760
Me and nick ploof Had declared during the rumor phase that we were going to buy a 5090

267
00:26:03,640 --> 00:26:10,200
So the card our before card that we compare the 5092 is literally

268
00:26:10,920 --> 00:26:17,720
nick ploof's 4090 That he had to pull out of his computer at home because we wanted to have an MSI 4090

269
00:26:17,960 --> 00:26:21,720
And we didn't have one in our inventory and i'm not going to go buy a 4090 right now

270
00:26:22,120 --> 00:26:28,520
So he graciously Volunteered to bring his 4090 to work so that we could use it for the video

271
00:26:29,080 --> 00:26:33,640
And so that he could also experience side by side

272
00:26:34,200 --> 00:26:40,120
What kind of an upgrade am I getting? It's a really cool video and what I will say is that

273
00:26:41,240 --> 00:26:43,240
The answer is

274
00:26:45,000 --> 00:26:49,640
Not a foregone conclusion. I said before that I would buy a 5090

275
00:26:50,440 --> 00:26:53,400
So did nick ploof when we saw the review numbers

276
00:26:54,360 --> 00:26:56,600
Both of us felt pretty differently about it. Yeah

277
00:26:57,560 --> 00:27:03,320
And We did not gain perfect clarity from gaming on them side by side

278
00:27:03,960 --> 00:27:07,960
I will say all of those things but very interesting that video that video is coming

279
00:27:08,120 --> 00:27:17,160
I also think I don't want to jump us off this topic yet For sure like a little bit of a hint to the next topic. I also think with the deep seek r1 stuff going on right now

280
00:27:19,080 --> 00:27:22,840
Local llm is exploding like never before

281
00:27:23,560 --> 00:27:27,240
Um, like yes, people have been running lm and stuff for a long time and we'll get into this in a second

282
00:27:27,240 --> 00:27:35,560
Are you doing another victory lap right now? Oh So much. I know no idea. Dude. Like he is actually erect under the table right now

283
00:27:35,880 --> 00:27:43,000
Just from how right solid from how right he has been like like can you tell that the table is actually tilted this way?

284
00:27:43,000 --> 00:27:45,000
It's slightly slanted. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah

285
00:27:46,040 --> 00:27:52,680
Because he wasn't he called it so hard that the cloud was coming that the cloud was coming back on prem

286
00:27:52,920 --> 00:27:57,560
Now in fairness. I did not make as comprehensive a prediction as you

287
00:27:58,840 --> 00:28:01,640
But I resisted the move to the cloud

288
00:28:01,960 --> 00:28:06,360
Which I think you remember and do you remember everyone calling me stupid for doing on prem storage?

289
00:28:06,680 --> 00:28:11,480
Yeah, oh, yeah, like for years and years. Why are you such an idiot? Why are you doing on prem storage?

290
00:28:11,480 --> 00:28:16,760
I like all the video people are doing it Yeah, because because it's freaking expensive to put things in the cloud and annoying

291
00:28:16,840 --> 00:28:22,120
But what he called was all the compute coming back all the hosted services coming back

292
00:28:22,200 --> 00:28:26,600
I didn't I didn't I did not see that coming a lot of people told me no when I said it

293
00:28:26,600 --> 00:28:29,640
But I was like, I don't know. I just feel like it's gonna be a I don't remember what I said

294
00:28:29,800 --> 00:28:34,360
By that time you you might have been right about so many trends already that I might have just been like

295
00:28:34,760 --> 00:28:37,800
I don't think it was a okay debate I think we were just kind of like talking about it

296
00:28:37,800 --> 00:28:40,440
But there there was a few other people that were like no, dude

297
00:28:40,840 --> 00:28:48,360
Like opening I was going to push so hard to keep everything. Yeah Up up up up up and like looking at how llama's been going. I never lost hope, but I was still like

298
00:28:48,760 --> 00:28:54,680
Hmm This is not hitting mainstream really, but I guess we can just shift topics now if you want

299
00:28:54,760 --> 00:29:00,680
Yeah, sure I don't think there's that much more to say about are we wasting our time reviewing GPUs when they get snapped up

300
00:29:00,760 --> 00:29:06,840
Regardless of what reviewers think of them. Yeah, I think I think genuinely there is potentially an argument to start talking about like

301
00:29:07,480 --> 00:29:11,880
Okay, what what if we give like an overall 1080p gaving average

302
00:29:12,520 --> 00:29:17,000
chart In the video and then we do a breakdown of the games on the site

303
00:29:17,480 --> 00:29:24,600
No I don't know I mean like the thing is people are dipping because of graphs like I feel like we might want to respond to that

304
00:29:24,760 --> 00:29:28,200
And that doesn't mean the information can't be out there if it's one click away

305
00:29:28,440 --> 00:29:33,160
Okay, that doesn't feel like it's too bad. Let me present this data in a different way. Okay. Okay

306
00:29:35,720 --> 00:29:38,840
One million people watched the whole thing

307
00:29:41,240 --> 00:29:45,240
Just about And I think that that's really important

308
00:29:45,880 --> 00:29:49,640
Those one million people might go tell three friends or five friends

309
00:29:49,640 --> 00:29:54,120
And if you take the gaming charts out, you might just lose a different portion of people. I think so. Okay

310
00:29:54,520 --> 00:29:57,560
I think so. I think that I mean look Labs is

311
00:29:58,200 --> 00:30:03,240
One of those things that we did not Create to make money. Oh, yeah

312
00:30:04,360 --> 00:30:11,960
That is Like the the the the narrative that you know everything we do is to make the maximum amount of money is just comically false

313
00:30:12,680 --> 00:30:17,960
If I wanted to make more money, I would do more sponsored showcase videos and I would do absolutely zero

314
00:30:18,600 --> 00:30:22,920
building of a lab Luke knows because he's seen the numbers

315
00:30:23,240 --> 00:30:30,920
But I would literally be millions of dollars more wealthy if I had just not bothered a lot of people think that's hardware cost

316
00:30:31,400 --> 00:30:36,920
I like it is sure sure. Yeah, that too. Yeah, but hardware space, but no no

317
00:30:37,960 --> 00:30:41,880
people and uh um

318
00:30:41,880 --> 00:30:46,120
So, why do we do it? We don't do it because everyone watches the whole video

319
00:30:46,680 --> 00:30:49,160
Yeah, we do it because it's important. Yeah

320
00:30:50,440 --> 00:30:54,680
Yeah, um, but yeah, okay, so we can we can jump to this. Yeah, we can jump to the next time

321
00:30:54,680 --> 00:30:58,600
I'm gonna run through some of the the notes that were written and then we have like the discussion

322
00:30:59,240 --> 00:31:03,240
Question section for this discussion topic. Whatever you want to call it is like over half the topic

323
00:31:03,240 --> 00:31:10,040
So we'll get into that but I'll read the notes first on monday january 17th several big tech companies stock markets crashed stocks

324
00:31:10,760 --> 00:31:20,600
Not markets The market crashed and most of that was big tech companies. Uh, most notably was NVIDIA dropping 17 percent, which is roughly 600

325
00:31:21,320 --> 00:31:23,800
billion dollars in market cap

326
00:31:24,360 --> 00:31:31,000
The cause was new ai models developed by chinese company deep seek that reportedly cost less than six million us dollars to train

327
00:31:31,160 --> 00:31:36,440
Reportedly is a decently important word there. Yes, it is Obviously some analysts became skeptical of this number

328
00:31:36,600 --> 00:31:39,960
But others said that even if it cost several times that amount it would still be

329
00:31:40,520 --> 00:31:46,280
Far cheaper to run than current competitors like chat gpt from open ai and that seems to probably be true

330
00:31:46,360 --> 00:31:52,200
And it's worth noting that we're talking specifically about chat gp or open ai's most recent

331
00:31:54,040 --> 00:32:01,080
Reasoning model. Yes, right. We're not talking about any like older stuff. We're talking about right now. Yeah, it's kind of

332
00:32:01,160 --> 00:32:07,080
It's what matters now. Um speaking of open ai us administration's new ai and crypto czar david sacks

333
00:32:07,240 --> 00:32:13,000
Stated that there's substantial evidence that what deep seek did here is they distilled the knowledge out of open ai's models

334
00:32:13,320 --> 00:32:19,080
Uh, and I don't think open ai is very happy about this. What reaping what you sow. That's crazy

335
00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:25,720
Um, dude, that's not in the quote This okay. Sorry. Sorry. Could yeah, keep reading the thing because this is so funny

336
00:32:25,880 --> 00:32:31,800
This is generally this is actually the funniest thing that will happen on the WAN Show for probably the entire year

337
00:32:32,280 --> 00:32:41,400
Is open ai being like You traded on our data. You can't train your you can't train your ai on our stuff. It's the spider man meme

338
00:32:42,520 --> 00:32:48,520
What are you even talking about? Buddy apparently that's unverified apparently that's unverified

339
00:32:48,840 --> 00:32:54,120
Open ai is accusing deep seek of training deep seeks dataset using responses generated by open ai models

340
00:32:54,280 --> 00:32:59,560
Open ai is now looking into count counter measures to protect themselves to help prevent distillation and of course

341
00:33:00,040 --> 00:33:04,360
Their own ip and brand And then we get into the discussion topics

342
00:33:04,680 --> 00:33:09,800
What do you think gives open ai the right to be upset about their quote-unquote copyrighted material?

343
00:33:10,040 --> 00:33:16,920
If all they did was scrape the internet for possibly copyrighted material now definitely copyrighted material now in fairness they did

344
00:33:17,640 --> 00:33:20,760
license Some of the material

345
00:33:20,840 --> 00:33:24,520
Way later whenever they got in trouble enough to deal with it. Yes

346
00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:31,240
Do you do have we like noticed ai scraper bots like on our form and stuff like is it a lot?

347
00:33:31,320 --> 00:33:34,040
Is it basically everything and everyone? Uh, I don't know about

348
00:33:35,000 --> 00:33:39,960
Plain so much, but all of our other websites. Yeah, cool. Yeah, cool. Cool. Yeah, it's a thing

349
00:33:40,760 --> 00:33:42,760
it's just I talked to

350
00:33:43,800 --> 00:33:51,880
Dan Dan seagull about this The guy that runs the the lab's web team and we essentially came to the conclusion of like we can spend

351
00:33:52,200 --> 00:33:56,360
Time and resources on stopping it or we can spend time and resources on making the site better

352
00:33:56,520 --> 00:34:00,280
Yeah, let's do the second thing. Well, let's make the site better. Yeah, let's do the second thing. Yeah

353
00:34:01,080 --> 00:34:04,920
So that's what we're doing At a certain point like it is what it is

354
00:34:04,920 --> 00:34:10,600
It's going to be a continued arms race So we would be signing up for like a long-term battle and it's just like man

355
00:34:11,320 --> 00:34:14,120
Add dub asks how do you notice scraper bots?

356
00:34:14,680 --> 00:34:18,360
It's a good question That is a good question that I'm not going to be able to answer super well

357
00:34:18,360 --> 00:34:21,000
But usually it's like you can you can tell what they're doing. They don't

358
00:34:21,720 --> 00:34:29,240
They're they're searching every single page. They're acting in non-human ways. Sometimes they'll even basically flag themselves

359
00:34:29,640 --> 00:34:35,720
Uh, that's not as common. Um, yeah, people are posting resource usage location. Yeah, that's all very good

360
00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:38,600
Um, there's there's like a ton of different ways

361
00:34:39,160 --> 00:34:43,480
Um, cloudflare have decent decent scrapers built it. I think you mean like scraper defense

362
00:34:44,360 --> 00:34:47,400
They do have that but

363
00:34:47,400 --> 00:34:52,600
As far as my understanding goes, um, like if you try to block this this might be false

364
00:34:52,680 --> 00:34:57,640
I want to say that before I say this as far as my understanding goes if you try to block like googles

365
00:34:58,280 --> 00:35:02,120
ai scraper bot You'll get d ranked

366
00:35:02,520 --> 00:35:09,000
so Do you want to not be found by anyone including bots? It's like that. It's not really the goal either

367
00:35:09,880 --> 00:35:14,440
So I don't know but either way it's like it hasn't even been worth the the cycles

368
00:35:15,160 --> 00:35:20,920
To figure it out because it's like have you played around with deep sea yet? No, not personally, but I've seen its outputs a lot

369
00:35:21,480 --> 00:35:27,160
And we're it seems like there's been some pretty funny stuff going on some hilarious stuff

370
00:35:27,640 --> 00:35:32,120
I don't know if it's been like made up. I don't know if they're then let's not bother with it videos. Yeah

371
00:35:32,920 --> 00:35:41,320
But yeah, we're looking into I am Essentially as of now declaring like all right. I think it's been far enough nick from the lab has been messing around with

372
00:35:41,880 --> 00:35:46,520
um, local lm's on I think it's a mac mini in the lab for a long time now

373
00:35:47,240 --> 00:35:51,640
But now it's going to be the point. We're like, okay. I think we want company wrought company wide resources for this

374
00:35:53,640 --> 00:35:58,520
So we're probably going to build something which will be cool. Oh thinking about making a video for it

375
00:35:58,840 --> 00:36:04,520
Okay, cool. Elijah has in the notes here that uh, he's never had anyone read out

376
00:36:04,600 --> 00:36:09,080
Oh, this is all me. Oh, this is you. Okay. Well, do your thing then from here to here is all me

377
00:36:09,160 --> 00:36:14,280
So, yeah, I'll just I'll just run for it. Yeah, I said while it might still not be mainstream

378
00:36:14,360 --> 00:36:18,360
I had originally written written like oh local lm is mainstream now. Okay, maybe not

379
00:36:18,760 --> 00:36:24,760
um Lama has been awesome But nothing has brought local lm in my opinion to the masses like deep seek

380
00:36:25,160 --> 00:36:29,640
A lot of the conversation that I'm seeing around deep seek is people like concerned about its

381
00:36:30,120 --> 00:36:35,560
Ties to china or whatever the other half of the conversation has been how incredibly lightweight it is

382
00:36:35,800 --> 00:36:38,520
I mean even the chat's blowing up about it. Someone was saying that

383
00:36:39,320 --> 00:36:43,560
It's been tuned down to require only like 80 gigs of shared memory or something like that

384
00:36:44,360 --> 00:36:49,640
Yeah, which is huge which is well, not huge. No, I mean, it's a huge deal. Yeah

385
00:36:51,560 --> 00:36:57,640
It's it's it's wild. It's way easier to run locally and I think a lot of people are are seeing the benefits

386
00:36:57,720 --> 00:37:04,360
Especially when you're looking at chat tpt costs and going like that's $200 a month and m white says bro

387
00:37:04,920 --> 00:37:08,760
I managed to get the 8-bit quantized version to run on my 30 hdti

388
00:37:09,160 --> 00:37:14,600
Yeah, like oh, I have a note in here about 3000 series graphics cards being like huge for this, but we'll get to that

389
00:37:14,840 --> 00:37:18,920
um Yeah, anyway, sorry. I'll just keep going then we can discuss for a little bit

390
00:37:19,160 --> 00:37:27,160
um But yeah, people are worried about its ties to china or whatever But you can fairly easily just like ignore those by running it locally and even entirely offline

391
00:37:27,880 --> 00:37:31,000
So you don't have to use their chat bot thing you can run it locally

392
00:37:31,080 --> 00:37:34,680
You can run it entirely offline so they aren't getting reports or data from it or anything

393
00:37:35,320 --> 00:37:38,520
And I've heard from many other people that you can tune it

394
00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:44,280
So people have found that it'll censor certain responses that you might expect a piece of software from china to censor

395
00:37:44,920 --> 00:37:50,600
But you can just make it not Wow, you're running it locally. You're in control. So like cool. Okay

396
00:37:50,920 --> 00:37:56,520
I I don't know that you're gonna get away from all of its potential biases to be super clear

397
00:37:56,600 --> 00:37:59,720
But it's open source someone if open chat just pointed out you can fork it

398
00:38:00,200 --> 00:38:04,520
like The fact that this is open source is the craziest part the fact

399
00:38:05,160 --> 00:38:11,160
The fact that so much of this stuff llama now deep seek is all going open source is wild and

400
00:38:11,880 --> 00:38:21,560
Yeah, I don't know anyways My next note is that I've never had anyone reach out asking about how to run LLMS locally or what hardware to get for anything

401
00:38:21,800 --> 00:38:28,120
In the last week. I've had no less than 10 I saw a thread on twitter where some someone put together

402
00:38:28,680 --> 00:38:32,840
Um, just like a hardware list with like a couple epic cpus

403
00:38:32,920 --> 00:38:38,200
They were like, look, you don't even like need gpus because that'll be way more expensive. So we're just going to use system memory

404
00:38:38,200 --> 00:38:42,440
We're going to use CPU. Uh, here's the motherboard you need they put together this hardware list that was

405
00:38:43,320 --> 00:38:49,880
Yeah, sure. It's still thousands and thousands of dollars or whatever But compared to what you would have needed before to do it on a GPU

406
00:38:50,840 --> 00:38:55,640
Um, uh, it's like you can even do it so much cheaper than that too. Yeah. No, but this was

407
00:38:56,280 --> 00:39:02,120
This was but this was earlier in the week before anyone knew how uh, how much it could be optimized

408
00:39:02,520 --> 00:39:10,760
For smaller memory footprints, so it needed like a bunch of RAM But anyway, the the point is not any of that the point is that this post had like tens of thousands of upvotes

409
00:39:11,320 --> 00:39:15,880
Like like this is happening like There's a shift this is such a niche

410
00:39:16,520 --> 00:39:20,040
topic Or it isn't yeah, not really anymore

411
00:39:20,040 --> 00:39:25,960
And the fact that you can plug and play with with different models once you get it locally means it's not really gonna go out date

412
00:39:26,440 --> 00:39:31,800
It seems like they're getting easier to run not harder And you're looking at a 200 a month bill and going wow

413
00:39:31,800 --> 00:39:37,000
I can really distill this out in like half a year and then it's it's gravy from there is crazy

414
00:39:37,080 --> 00:39:42,520
Yeah, compared to buying a subscription to like a like is open ai just gonna

415
00:39:43,400 --> 00:39:46,760
Go out of business. No, I don't think so and I have I haven't noticed that later on

416
00:39:46,760 --> 00:39:52,360
Yeah, let's talk about okay. Do some of the flowpoint chat pointed out apparently there's 6400 forks already on github

417
00:39:54,200 --> 00:39:57,640
So like Yeah, the whole like oh ties to china stuff

418
00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:02,520
I don't think it matters this this really to me feels like an economic blow

419
00:40:02,760 --> 00:40:09,720
It feels like an attack against not just open ai But honestly the entire american tech sector the fact that they made the chat bot free

420
00:40:10,120 --> 00:40:14,600
And they completely open sourced it so you can't even pull the the china card very well

421
00:40:15,560 --> 00:40:19,320
I don't see a reason to do that other than to just hyper dunk on

422
00:40:20,040 --> 00:40:25,400
the american tech industry Anyways, I'm gonna keep going. Oh, yeah, I've never had people asked before

423
00:40:25,400 --> 00:40:29,880
I had no less than 10 in the last week and I've had people telling me like hey

424
00:40:30,120 --> 00:40:35,240
Sorry to ask what I'm asking on behalf of like another friend that is really interested in I'm wondering if you know

425
00:40:35,880 --> 00:40:41,800
I am personally trying to pressure wendell to make a video on this so that I can just link it to people because I

426
00:40:41,800 --> 00:40:46,120
Want to stop writing the same thing over and over again, then he's gonna know better than me anyways

427
00:40:46,520 --> 00:40:50,760
Um, and he said something along the lines of like soon tm. I think

428
00:40:51,160 --> 00:40:55,080
Um, that seems like the kind of thing wendell would would do. Yeah, so hopefully he does it

429
00:40:55,080 --> 00:40:58,200
But I don't know when and I'm not saying he's going to but yeah

430
00:40:58,600 --> 00:41:04,440
What I what I have in here is what I will say is what's really popular right now is mac minis because of the shared memory

431
00:41:04,760 --> 00:41:10,600
so mac studio As well because that one you can configure with way more RAM

432
00:41:11,160 --> 00:41:16,760
Nice, and you don't need a crazy amount though. Well the mac mini with the m4 pro even okay

433
00:41:16,760 --> 00:41:22,440
So with the m4 it tops out at 32 gigs. That's pretty good with the m4 pro it tops out at 64

434
00:41:23,320 --> 00:41:31,000
But the max studio is is honestly not that unreasonably priced compared to the mini if as soon once you start to upgrade it

435
00:41:31,400 --> 00:41:36,600
And it maxes out. I I believe 192 gigs. I mean that's sick. I just it's

436
00:41:37,560 --> 00:41:41,160
So much more than what that's basically everyone needs

437
00:41:41,320 --> 00:41:46,120
I'm not my main point here is that you can go as low as something like that

438
00:41:46,280 --> 00:41:48,840
Like I've seen a lot of people being like oh, I'm going to get

439
00:41:49,560 --> 00:41:57,000
340 90s and like I'm like bro like no and NVIDIA's little ai super computer for five grand or whatever

440
00:41:57,480 --> 00:42:03,400
Is going to look completely irrelevant compared to a mac mini. Yeah, if we don't if we don't need

441
00:42:03,640 --> 00:42:06,520
All that RAM if we don't need a powerful

442
00:42:06,760 --> 00:42:12,120
We'll have to see how good digits is but but yeah for the vast majority of people that aren't running this for like

443
00:42:12,360 --> 00:42:15,400
A group or a team of people you've run one person

444
00:42:15,400 --> 00:42:21,000
I really think like the the mac mini keep it cheap play if you're going for one person is not bad

445
00:42:21,240 --> 00:42:28,120
I would also want to point out um that 3000 series gpus are in a in my opinion really cool sweet spot

446
00:42:28,520 --> 00:42:32,360
Um and on all of this Dan i'm interested in your input too. Maybe when I get through my notes

447
00:42:32,440 --> 00:42:34,840
Yeah, Dan you need to sell those 30 90s

448
00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:38,520
No Oh, well if you just want the cash. Yeah

449
00:42:38,920 --> 00:42:44,440
There's a lot right now dude 39 because of the 24 gigs of vram. So yeah, my next no, I bought them

450
00:42:45,880 --> 00:42:50,040
39 3000 series gpus especially the 30 90 due to its 24 gigs of vram

451
00:42:50,200 --> 00:42:54,200
Which didn't increase with the 40 90 and while it did increase with the 50 90

452
00:42:54,360 --> 00:43:02,200
It wasn't by a huge amount and those like don't exist. So 30 90s are selling now for still over a thousand dollars

453
00:43:02,440 --> 00:43:06,440
When did they first come out? So, you know, what's funny? I think over four years ago

454
00:43:06,600 --> 00:43:11,080
And what was the end was almost five years ago? MSRP was 1200 us dollars

455
00:43:12,040 --> 00:43:15,000
And it came out in september 24th of 2020

456
00:43:16,360 --> 00:43:23,480
Yeah Holy crap, but they have 24 gigs of vram. You know, what's really funny is

457
00:43:24,280 --> 00:43:31,240
I kind of mocked jensen's keynote when he said that buying that 40 90 was a great investment

458
00:43:32,840 --> 00:43:42,520
I Mean the 30 90 might have been no no 40 90s have held their value incredibly well. Oh, yeah, even though the 50 90 and 50 80 have been

459
00:43:43,320 --> 00:43:48,520
Announced released benchmarked everything ploof was telling me that he can still get about

460
00:43:49,320 --> 00:43:54,920
2000 canadian dollars for his 40 90 That's wild and this is a card that fair the 50 90s don't exist

461
00:43:55,000 --> 00:43:58,200
And so he's been he's been gaming on it for two years

462
00:43:58,760 --> 00:44:02,920
So if you compare that right like if you could buy if you could buy a car today

463
00:44:03,640 --> 00:44:07,640
for $10,000 Drive it for two years

464
00:44:07,640 --> 00:44:10,680
And then sell it for 9500 dollars

465
00:44:11,720 --> 00:44:19,400
Then basically you were paying like 40 bucks a month in rent or whatever to rent a car like it's like it's like it's trivial

466
00:44:19,960 --> 00:44:30,440
Compared to how we used to think of these things It used to be that when I bought a 500 dollar graphics card when the next generation came out that thing was worth 200 bucks

467
00:44:31,000 --> 00:44:33,400
Like it was it was functionally worthless

468
00:44:34,040 --> 00:44:41,400
whereas now What the f**k is going on two generational GPU. I'm on facebook marketplace here. Okay

469
00:44:42,200 --> 00:44:48,680
And 30 90s are like a thousand dollars now. That's canadian dollars. That's that's rubles worth about four bucks

470
00:44:48,760 --> 00:44:54,760
I need to buy more. So let's do a quick correction. Okay, we'll do a quick conversion here. Okay, so we got the

471
00:44:55,880 --> 00:44:57,880
Oh, no, baby sad

472
00:45:00,520 --> 00:45:02,520
Okay, so that's you know

473
00:45:04,440 --> 00:45:09,720
But still Dude, that's a four and a half year old GPU

474
00:45:10,760 --> 00:45:16,360
Or like 4.4.25 or whatever whatever the math works. It's over four year old GPU

475
00:45:16,440 --> 00:45:23,240
That is now two generations out of date and they are sick at running these systems because of the 24 gigs of eram

476
00:45:23,880 --> 00:45:25,880
actually crazy

477
00:45:28,360 --> 00:45:33,080
Uh Yeah, I just had to mentally

478
00:45:33,080 --> 00:45:37,560
Check I like a new but I didn't want to say the wrong thing and it sounds incorrect

479
00:45:37,720 --> 00:45:42,760
No way the fact that the 5080 is 16 gigs is like what a queen boo in chat

480
00:45:43,160 --> 00:45:46,040
Says that they're still like 900 us dollars on ebay

481
00:45:46,360 --> 00:45:52,120
I wonder if this is one of those things where some of the canadian sellers don't realize how worthless the cat is right now

482
00:45:53,720 --> 00:45:58,920
Maybe I should be should I be buying canadian 30 90s and flipping them in america? Let's go

483
00:45:59,960 --> 00:46:01,960
Oh, dude. Dude. Dude. Dude. Dude. Look at this

484
00:46:03,000 --> 00:46:07,320
This founder's edition is at 930 us dollars. That's a bid

485
00:46:07,880 --> 00:46:14,600
That's a freaking auction. Wow You got to be kidding me. No, no, hold on. This can't be right. This can't be right. Okay, hold on. Hold on. Hold on

486
00:46:14,600 --> 00:46:19,880
Hold on. Where's my sold? Where's my sold at sold items? Here we go. Completed. I am sold items. No, no, okay. No, no

487
00:46:19,960 --> 00:46:22,440
Well, actually no, dude, dude

488
00:46:23,000 --> 00:46:26,440
dude Oh, this is two. No, these are parts only

489
00:46:27,320 --> 00:46:34,280
You got to be you got to be kidding me here. You got to be kidding me here 830 us 830 us. Yeah, they're going for 800 to

490
00:46:34,680 --> 00:46:38,760
a thousand us dollars that's

491
00:46:38,760 --> 00:46:42,600
Bunkers and it's just because of VRAM. I when the 50 90s VRAM was announced

492
00:46:42,680 --> 00:46:46,920
I was openly disappointed and a few people questioned it because they're like, oh, I went up it went up

493
00:46:47,000 --> 00:46:50,200
I'm like, yeah, but it didn't go up last gen. So if you compare it

494
00:46:50,760 --> 00:46:53,160
Uh, like you you can't ignore the fact

495
00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:57,480
That it didn't go up with the 40 90 in my opinion. I think that's what makes it worse

496
00:46:58,360 --> 00:47:04,200
Because that means in in however many years we we've gone up like eight gigs

497
00:47:04,200 --> 00:47:11,960
Yikes We are never yikes. We are never building a 30 90 pc in scrapyard wars

498
00:47:14,520 --> 00:47:22,360
Yeah, probably Literally never they're gonna be a thousand dollars forever. That's brutal. This is ridiculous

499
00:47:23,400 --> 00:47:27,240
So if I bought if I got an msrp

500
00:47:27,720 --> 00:47:31,640
30 90 at launch, okay 30 90 launch msrp

501
00:47:31,720 --> 00:47:38,200
I believe it was 1200 but let's just oh, no, I'm wrong. Am I wrong? It was 14 99. Okay. So

502
00:47:38,760 --> 00:47:42,920
Is that right fair bit higher? Okay. How much was the 30 90 ti?

503
00:47:46,440 --> 00:47:53,480
1999 okay, so 1500 us dollars, you know what my point still works if I bought this thing at launch

504
00:47:53,800 --> 00:47:58,200
Okay, so launch date was let's just double check that september of

505
00:47:59,080 --> 00:48:02,280
Uh, september 24th of 2020 was it?

506
00:48:04,280 --> 00:48:08,840
Uh, oh for the the 30 90 release. Yeah, I believe so. I believe it was 2020

507
00:48:09,560 --> 00:48:14,440
Yes, September 24th 2020. So how many how many months is that? That's like 50 months

508
00:48:14,840 --> 00:48:20,760
So this thing has gone down in value by anywhere from 500 to 700 dollars. Let's call it 600 dollars

509
00:48:21,640 --> 00:48:25,720
Okay, so 600 dollars divided by 50 months

510
00:48:26,680 --> 00:48:34,600
Means That I could have a 59 or excuse me a 30 90 in my computer from launch day till now

511
00:48:35,160 --> 00:48:43,640
For 12 dollars a month. Yeah, wow And I could and I could sell this thing and get back that much of my money that is flipping

512
00:48:44,840 --> 00:48:47,560
Pun intended crazy. That's pretty nuts

513
00:48:48,200 --> 00:48:51,800
Yeah, 1590 like what's a g-force? What's a g-force now subscription?

514
00:48:52,040 --> 00:48:59,880
Like is this gonna justify g-force now no because g-force now is going to be more expensive than just

515
00:49:00,440 --> 00:49:02,440
Buying a 30 90

516
00:49:03,720 --> 00:49:10,120
Buying a 30 90 on launch day to be clear. Yeah to be clear and using it the whole time and actually putting in the work to flip it

517
00:49:10,840 --> 00:49:15,000
Wait, you've got to be kidding me mind on it g-force now is sold out

518
00:49:15,000 --> 00:49:22,840
This is NVIDIA's game streaming service

519
00:49:25,000 --> 00:49:27,000
What

520
00:49:29,240 --> 00:49:32,520
They're running out of subs they've limited that's weird

521
00:49:33,880 --> 00:49:38,120
For weeks They ran out of they ran out of cloud

522
00:49:40,680 --> 00:49:44,840
All this tells us is that Literally

523
00:49:44,840 --> 00:49:49,960
quite literally Every wafer. Yeah, NVIDIA can get

524
00:49:50,920 --> 00:49:55,640
Goes straight To the data center. Yeah, I mean

525
00:49:56,440 --> 00:50:00,200
50 90 50 80 appear to be functionally paper launches. Yeah

526
00:50:01,800 --> 00:50:06,520
They can't even they can't even put GPUs in their own days in their own data center

527
00:50:07,880 --> 00:50:11,720
Wow Even NVIDIA can't get the GPUs they need, right?

528
00:50:13,640 --> 00:50:19,720
Oh, okay. Hold on someone says read the news. They're changing payment processors. So they've halted subscriptions. Okay. Okay. Okay. Hold on hold on hold on

529
00:50:20,280 --> 00:50:25,240
So whoever had is not paying until they figure this out. Okay. Okay. Okay. Maybe it's not that bad. Maybe it's not that bad

530
00:50:25,240 --> 00:50:27,880
Okay, this is why it's nice to have chat. Thanks chat. You guys are great

531
00:50:29,720 --> 00:50:34,600
Okay, well how much I don't know how much it costs then the point is I'm pretty sure that this would be less than

532
00:50:35,160 --> 00:50:39,480
Less than a g-force now subscription You also have to pay for the rest of stuff in your computer

533
00:50:39,560 --> 00:50:47,720
But I guess you'd also have to a device to run g-force now Yeah, and you might just like having a computer in general. So, you know, whatever my point is just like what you're paying for this the GPU

534
00:50:48,520 --> 00:50:53,320
Unless you're an ai developer or whatever functions as a gaming device. Yeah, yeah, right

535
00:50:54,280 --> 00:50:59,240
yep And and that 30 90 is not uh, not far off

536
00:50:59,560 --> 00:51:04,360
Is actually better than a 40 80 in terms of performance anyway, and that's the ultimate tier as well

537
00:51:04,520 --> 00:51:09,560
So you don't even have to spend You know the $1,500 at at launch or whatever

538
00:51:11,080 --> 00:51:17,800
Well, how do we I don't say it's 20 bucks per month ultimate. There you go. Yeah, so literally cheaper

539
00:51:19,080 --> 00:51:21,400
Then streaming just buy the computer. Yeah

540
00:51:23,160 --> 00:51:28,840
Crazy because that's Crazy, this is crazy. We live in crazy timeline a limited amount of time

541
00:51:28,840 --> 00:51:31,880
You can use g-force now for like you have limited hours per month ultimate

542
00:51:31,880 --> 00:51:35,800
I don't think is limited eight hour session lengths and then when you're done the session

543
00:51:35,800 --> 00:51:40,920
It's not gonna be enough for some of the people watching right now. I guarantee you. Why are you calling out Dan like that?

544
00:51:41,320 --> 00:51:44,520
uh That might not be enough for Dan sometimes

545
00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:53,640
No, i'm not even just saying for gamey because Dan does a lot of stuff on his computer Oh, and there's q times too. Even the ultimate. There's q times. That's a workstation computer that also plays video games

546
00:51:53,720 --> 00:51:56,040
Exactly, right? So like eight hour sessions. I don't know

547
00:51:56,840 --> 00:52:02,200
Maybe not. Oh, did I leave though? I put on a brand new shirt before the show. I'm saying all this big talk

548
00:52:02,360 --> 00:52:05,640
It wouldn't work for me. Yeah No

549
00:52:05,640 --> 00:52:14,040
All right, there we go. Sorry about that guys. What'd you do? I I had the uh the extra button in the plastic bag hanging off the back of my shirt. I was bothering people in the chat

550
00:52:14,200 --> 00:52:19,960
It's the style. You did it on purpose. All right. What are we supposed to be talking about? Let's do some harsh messages. No, i'm not done

551
00:52:20,760 --> 00:52:25,800
I'm not done. Okay carry on. My next line is uh, don't expect openly. I did not have an answer for this

552
00:52:26,280 --> 00:52:31,880
Um, I I don't think they're just gonna like roll over. I do I'm not personally surprised

553
00:52:31,880 --> 00:52:37,960
I saw a lot of hot takes when the market crashed at like all these dumb idiot investor people don't understand that

554
00:52:38,520 --> 00:52:44,120
They still use gpus for this stuff. Um, I actually understand the crash personally because

555
00:52:44,760 --> 00:52:50,440
what this signaled was that you can do it much more efficiently and

556
00:52:51,000 --> 00:52:56,120
The stock price for NVIDIA as insanely inflated as it probably still is

557
00:52:56,600 --> 00:53:00,440
um A big part of the reason why it was so inflated was because of the incredible

558
00:53:01,320 --> 00:53:06,040
Inefficiency of ai stuff and the incredible amount of power that were people were needing to buy from NVIDIA

559
00:53:06,520 --> 00:53:15,800
Um, so if if it's more efficient Then the hundreds of millions billions of dollars being flooded into NVIDIA to buy every single possible thing

560
00:53:15,880 --> 00:53:22,360
Anyone could possibly scrape for them is maybe not as much of a thing as it was in the past probably still a thing

561
00:53:22,760 --> 00:53:31,720
Yeah, and the and the the the Positive for NVIDIA stock, you know spin on that is well by being so much more efficient

562
00:53:32,360 --> 00:53:37,400
So many more people are going to run these things and so they're going to sell even more gpus

563
00:53:38,120 --> 00:53:43,560
It remains to be seen how that plays out, but this way we're at least presenting sort of both sides of the argument

564
00:53:43,640 --> 00:53:48,040
I have a really interesting take on this which is probably pie in the sky and

565
00:53:49,000 --> 00:53:54,200
hopeful whatever but Um, is there is if a lot of people coming down is it

566
00:53:54,760 --> 00:53:59,800
Calling it's good. Yeah, the pie. It's the it's the pizza on the roof from breaking bad. Um, but uh

567
00:54:01,880 --> 00:54:08,600
I don't know man. If a lot of people buy some of these to have local lm's at home. Yeah more gaming pieces

568
00:54:11,000 --> 00:54:16,760
Maybe more gaming pieces if you're looking at electronic spending for your home and you

569
00:54:18,040 --> 00:54:24,200
You could have a console wait. Why do you sorry? What what do you think if you buy a high-end GPU sure to run an llm at home

570
00:54:24,440 --> 00:54:29,080
Oh, so you game on it. So you're just going like convert the convert the faithless

571
00:54:29,640 --> 00:54:39,800
Bring everyone to pc gaming because They can't run an llm on their xbox. Yeah, really deep seek destroys console peasants. Yeah, that's the headline. Yeah

572
00:54:41,080 --> 00:54:44,520
Okay, xbox is dying anyways like that dominoes meme

573
00:54:46,520 --> 00:54:50,920
Sure switch two is going to sell at quibillion units and is also incredibly boring

574
00:54:51,640 --> 00:54:55,080
Yeah, it's probably the most boring console in nintendo has ever announced

575
00:54:55,800 --> 00:54:58,680
Oh, that's an interesting debate. Hold on. Let's see

576
00:54:59,640 --> 00:55:01,880
The most boring console

577
00:55:08,120 --> 00:55:10,120
New ds

578
00:55:11,880 --> 00:55:18,360
Oh, do you count? Oh, this is technically I can't even I can't even remember a bit of a hybrid all the different variants of ds

579
00:55:18,600 --> 00:55:25,160
At this point to be honest with you Wasn't it like new ds plus or something? Yeah, I'm getting a lot of support in chat

580
00:55:25,800 --> 00:55:29,320
There's a lot of yes was not boring because 2ds was an affordability play

581
00:55:30,920 --> 00:55:36,360
2ds was way cheaper people are saying the new 2ds so somewhere between what you and I are saying

582
00:55:36,360 --> 00:55:40,840
but basically one of the flipping ds's like I'm I'm not convinced that because

583
00:55:41,560 --> 00:55:49,640
Like gameboy advance is huge gameboy advance was huge gameboy color was huge back then there was a pretty clear delineation between console and handheld

584
00:55:49,720 --> 00:55:54,920
I know it's become blurry now, but it was it's a console. It was clearly it's a handheld gaming console

585
00:55:55,000 --> 00:55:59,560
It was clearly separate. Don't even give me that. It was clearly separate. You know it. Don't even give me that

586
00:55:59,640 --> 00:56:02,440
It's clearly separate. You know it we you then got him

587
00:56:03,000 --> 00:56:06,440
He wasn't boring. It's I mean no one was interested in it

588
00:56:07,160 --> 00:56:12,200
No one knew what it was the definition of boring is I don't know don't care. No, it was so

589
00:56:13,320 --> 00:56:17,000
It was so exotic that people couldn't figure out what it was

590
00:56:17,560 --> 00:56:22,280
It definitely wasn't boring. It was weird. It was very weird. It was not boring. It might not have been good

591
00:56:22,520 --> 00:56:27,080
I liked it might not have been good though. Is he talking about you or is he talking about sex?

592
00:56:27,880 --> 00:56:30,680
What just go back and watch that listen to that whole thing

593
00:56:31,480 --> 00:56:39,960
What's he talking about? No one could figure it out. No, I don't I'm just I'm just it just sounded like you were talking about it doesn't matter

594
00:56:40,360 --> 00:56:47,720
um the point is The answer is virtual boy. Okay, the answer is always virtual boy. Virtual boy is not boring. Okay, that's true

595
00:56:47,800 --> 00:56:51,640
That's true. You're going for like bad or didn't sell well. I actually not the point

596
00:56:51,640 --> 00:56:53,800
I'm actually kind of excited for switch two

597
00:56:55,000 --> 00:56:59,400
If okay, because I I have I have I have a little theory. I have a little theory

598
00:56:59,480 --> 00:57:05,000
It's a it's a me theory But they they used the newer encoding engine. Yes, that could

599
00:57:05,640 --> 00:57:12,760
Move it to being more interesting if I think what they do with that Yeah, if if it uses because we haven't even seen yet on 50 series

600
00:57:13,560 --> 00:57:20,360
What is what that's going to mean for things like moonlight for for streaming like is is the quality because it's garbage in garbage out

601
00:57:20,360 --> 00:57:25,240
Right, so if if you are encoding at at much higher

602
00:57:25,800 --> 00:57:33,080
um color depth then Or with at fortuitu basically if you're if you're encoding with much higher quality

603
00:57:33,480 --> 00:57:39,320
Then when you decode that on the other side on your you know on your tv or on your handheld device

604
00:57:40,040 --> 00:57:44,520
Or you know on your like logitech gcloud or whatever, right when you decode that

605
00:57:44,920 --> 00:57:48,600
Theoretically it should look better. I haven't we haven't had a chance to look at any of this yet

606
00:57:49,080 --> 00:57:55,000
Um, this is potentially another w for big GPU. Enjoy your llm people. Yeah, I guess that's true

607
00:57:55,160 --> 00:58:01,560
Just saying but but anyway, the point is that if nintendo is using a newer generation encoder that I don't know

608
00:58:01,560 --> 00:58:05,960
Has really great latency or really great encoding quality and I can stream

609
00:58:06,520 --> 00:58:11,880
My switch from somewhere else. I think it kind of brings some of the spirit of the wu

610
00:58:12,520 --> 00:58:16,920
Into modern era which is which is kind of cool. So I can use it three ways now

611
00:58:17,320 --> 00:58:25,320
I can use it docked at the tv I can use it handheld or I can use it docked at the tv with a separate lightweight high battery life handheld

612
00:58:25,320 --> 00:58:29,880
That would be flipping cool with like a mobile app or something. I don't know that nintendo would go mobile app

613
00:58:30,040 --> 00:58:33,000
I mean, so many did though. You can buy a ps portal or you can just

614
00:58:33,640 --> 00:58:38,360
Not and you can just use an Android app. That's super cool. I didn't know that actually. Yeah, that's cool

615
00:58:38,440 --> 00:58:44,520
Yeah, no, it's genuinely cool. So the logitech gcloud is one of the few examples

616
00:58:45,000 --> 00:58:50,440
Now that I've been doing this so many years I generally have a pretty good idea if something's going to be phenomenally stupid

617
00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:57,320
Before I start reviewing it But that was one of the few examples of something that I was completely dismissive of

618
00:58:58,040 --> 00:59:03,000
And I went into it and I was like, oh This is this makes

619
00:59:03,080 --> 00:59:07,560
For the right person. I mean, I don't still use one because I just game on an ally

620
00:59:08,040 --> 00:59:11,960
I'd have my compute locally because I prefer the lower latency, but but for the right person

621
00:59:12,600 --> 00:59:18,840
There's a lot of games makes a ton of sense because the battery life's great And there's a ton of games where it doesn't matter. There's a ton of games where it doesn't matter

622
00:59:18,840 --> 00:59:23,640
Civ 7's right around the corner. Yeah, I mean, I wouldn't play that with a controller, but like

623
00:59:24,440 --> 00:59:30,920
I know people do On a yeah, maybe not on a switch, but on a steam deck. You have those pads

624
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:34,840
Dude, someone messaged me on steam the other day saying they play anno on their handheld

625
00:59:35,800 --> 00:59:42,040
I know right, but they're they've really enjoying it. Steam deck has the touch pads, right? Yeah, it might not be as bad

626
00:59:42,680 --> 00:59:49,000
Man, I think that would suck though I would not want to play anno anno is a whole different beast than than

627
00:59:50,760 --> 00:59:56,120
There you go Okay, so it is a steam deck because I'm not surprised. No, no, no, this isn't the post

628
00:59:56,120 --> 00:59:59,640
This is just this is just a post of someone playing anno on the steam deck

629
01:00:00,200 --> 01:00:03,880
Yeah, lower the graphics setting to medium still stutters a bit. I'll report back later. Yeah, no

630
01:00:05,160 --> 01:00:11,320
No, it's not the easiest game to run ever. It actually is and it has a super weird optimization curve. So

631
01:00:11,960 --> 01:00:19,480
Um at that when you max it out It will it will kind of crush your GPU in spite of honestly not really looking that much more better

632
01:00:19,560 --> 01:00:24,440
That's probably why I didn't think it was and it has some issues like if you if you max max it out and you're in

633
01:00:25,800 --> 01:00:31,000
x12 mode I can't remember but it will basically fail to launch and they've just never fixed it

634
01:00:31,560 --> 01:00:38,120
But at relatively low detail settings the developers specifically optimized it to run it until the integrated graphics

635
01:00:38,600 --> 01:00:45,560
Whoa. Yeah, so it actually runs really well. Wow if you turn the details down. That's actually sick. Yeah, that's cool

636
01:00:46,040 --> 01:00:48,040
I love stuff like that. I didn't know that at all

637
01:00:50,200 --> 01:00:57,640
That's that's Oh, we're supposed to explain merge messages now. Are you done? No, okay carry on. Uh, I think I was actually kind of kidding

638
01:00:58,120 --> 01:01:01,880
Um, yeah, I don't know. I feel like I could talk about this stuff forever

639
01:01:02,200 --> 01:01:09,400
Um, so he's done. But this is this is earmarking like I I do want us to get some local resources one for people to

640
01:01:09,400 --> 01:01:16,920
Just start playing with it. Um, but also like I want to start running better models for like inline IDE assistance for developers

641
01:01:17,640 --> 01:01:23,080
Uh, locally and potentially remote and not paying like big fat fees to open a i for that

642
01:01:23,400 --> 01:01:27,160
Cool would be pretty cool, especially if we can just like make a video doing it and then

643
01:01:28,600 --> 01:01:33,080
You know that helps pay for it to be pretty sick speaking of helping pay for things

644
01:01:33,160 --> 01:01:37,000
If you guys like the show you want to interact don't just throw money at your screen

645
01:01:37,080 --> 01:01:45,800
We don't really do twitch bits or super chats or anything like that We do merge messages to send a merge message. All you got to do is go to lttstore.com add some great

646
01:01:46,920 --> 01:01:50,680
incredible stuff like our new sport

647
01:01:50,680 --> 01:01:57,000
Button up shirt to your cart and you will get a little box that you can fill out and send in a merge message

648
01:01:57,400 --> 01:02:03,720
Uh, we're gonna do a couple of them show you guys how it works But basically it'll go to producer Dan who will reply a little something like that. Look at that

649
01:02:04,120 --> 01:02:08,760
He's ready to wave. He's ready to wave. I was waving already. Are you ready to wave now? Oh, no got oh

650
01:02:08,840 --> 01:02:12,280
Well, there he is. Oh nice. What what can't we with that hand? Sorry

651
01:02:13,320 --> 01:02:19,080
Anyway, the point is it goes through to producer Dan He will reply or he'll forward it to someone or he will curate it for me and luke

652
01:02:19,400 --> 01:02:23,960
But before we do a couple of them to show you how it works. Uh, let's talk about our new sport button up luke

653
01:02:23,960 --> 01:02:33,160
Do you like wearing dress shirts? No? Yeah, that's fair and you know what I get it sometimes they suck. Uh, they're stiff. They're sweaty. They don't move with your body

654
01:02:33,560 --> 01:02:38,840
Well, our fashion team made it their mission to prove that you can look like you have your life together

655
01:02:39,480 --> 01:02:43,880
While still also being comfy. That's why we made the sport button-up shirt

656
01:02:43,880 --> 01:02:48,440
It's made from the same four-way stretch material that we use for our premium sport joggers

657
01:02:48,840 --> 01:02:52,440
It's lightweight. It moves with your body and is even sweat wicking

658
01:02:53,560 --> 01:02:55,560
I see you

659
01:02:56,680 --> 01:03:00,920
It's super versatile It can be easily paired with a suit or worn casually on top of a t-shirt

660
01:03:01,080 --> 01:03:04,600
It also has a handy pocket to stash your pens snacks or patience

661
01:03:05,080 --> 01:03:11,400
And of course we couldn't go without adding a little bit of flair on the back bottom left of the shirt is a fun rainbow reflective LTT logo

662
01:03:11,960 --> 01:03:13,960
Oh

663
01:03:15,640 --> 01:03:19,800
From my experience, uh, don't wash that or don't dry that on with heat

664
01:03:21,000 --> 01:03:26,040
Just you know care instructions and all that just anyway, they're available now at LMG.gg slash sport

665
01:03:26,520 --> 01:03:30,440
Button up then if you want to hit all the chats with that that would be swell

666
01:03:31,080 --> 01:03:33,960
Uh, we also have one more announcement before we get started on merch messages

667
01:03:34,280 --> 01:03:37,560
Help us make our website better over the past few years

668
01:03:37,560 --> 01:03:40,600
We've expanded into so many different product categories on LTT Store

669
01:03:40,840 --> 01:03:44,520
We know that sometimes it can be a bit of a challenge to find what you're looking for

670
01:03:45,000 --> 01:03:48,760
Fortunately, we're working on making the store a little bit easier to navigate

671
01:03:49,080 --> 01:03:52,760
But to do it right we need your input if you're interested in contributing

672
01:03:52,760 --> 01:03:58,680
Please scan the qr code to take part and this says Dan show the thing which he's already doing. What a guy

673
01:04:00,040 --> 01:04:07,160
What a guy All right, shall we do a couple merch messages? We shall let's do that

674
01:04:08,120 --> 01:04:14,200
Just got a new mechanical keyboard and so far I hate it because of things like chattering and keys getting mistyped

675
01:04:14,520 --> 01:04:17,000
Is there a way to fix that or what are your suggestions?

676
01:04:17,880 --> 01:04:26,920
He's getting mistyped so far. I hate it because of things like chattering and keys getting mistyped

677
01:04:27,880 --> 01:04:29,880
uh

678
01:04:31,000 --> 01:04:37,400
I'm trying to think what would even cause that like if you had a crappy mechanical keyboard. Well, is it I

679
01:04:38,040 --> 01:04:42,360
I would return it Yeah, to be honest. Yeah, that's a good idea

680
01:04:42,920 --> 01:04:46,840
I would just return it because well, I'm just trying to think what would even cause that like if you have really cheap

681
01:04:46,920 --> 01:04:50,120
mechanical switches and the stems wobble or if you had

682
01:04:50,600 --> 01:04:55,640
Really heavy caps point is that a weird part and if you type in a certain way and you kind of like bounce

683
01:04:55,720 --> 01:04:58,760
It can it can like triple register. I think that's what he means by chattering

684
01:05:00,440 --> 01:05:06,920
The the you've got bad switches, bro. They're like miss input of the keys or whatever however he described it

685
01:05:07,400 --> 01:05:15,560
um Keys getting mistyped keys getting mistyped. I don't fully know what that means. You got a bad keyboard, but just return

686
01:05:15,720 --> 01:05:19,240
I think you got a broken keyboard if your keyboard isn't keyboarding send it back

687
01:05:19,480 --> 01:05:23,800
Yeah, get a different keyboard because man, you can get dude. You can get affordable

688
01:05:24,440 --> 01:05:27,800
You can get mechanical keyboards for less than you just spent on LTT Store

689
01:05:28,440 --> 01:05:33,560
That are great these days. So you just need to find one of those go the other direction, right?

690
01:05:33,640 --> 01:05:37,400
You can not i'm not telling you to spend a lot of money, but there's there's infinite scaling here

691
01:05:37,720 --> 01:05:41,320
And genuinely there's people who spend thousands of dollars on the keyboards

692
01:05:41,640 --> 01:05:46,840
um You can you can build your own you could go with a really fancy pre-built one

693
01:05:47,000 --> 01:05:52,040
You could go with a lower end pre-built one that just isn't junk like it sounds like yours is unfortunately

694
01:05:52,520 --> 01:05:55,720
Um, someone said keychron for not too much. I really like keychron stuff

695
01:05:56,200 --> 01:06:01,320
Um, I was really impressed by the one that we showed in the all china pc

696
01:06:01,960 --> 01:06:05,480
Uh, let me just get past this ad and then I will I will show it

697
01:06:05,720 --> 01:06:08,520
It's an ad for galaxy ai

698
01:06:08,920 --> 01:06:14,280
There are genuinely a ton of options though and those issues that you're describing should not exist. That is that is

699
01:06:14,920 --> 01:06:18,920
Uh Bad don't accept that just send it back get your money back

700
01:06:22,520 --> 01:06:31,640
You can't you can't have like Oh, look at that. Look at that it happened to go right to the part where we were talking about the keyboard amazing 50 bucks for this ala

701
01:06:32,520 --> 01:06:34,520
Whatever it is

702
01:06:35,800 --> 01:06:42,840
Oh Dang we can't we can't wait. We can't praise them like that's gonna go to his head. Damn. I'm pretty good sometimes

703
01:06:42,920 --> 01:06:47,880
Hold on. That was all the time. Dang. That was pretty good. Dang. What the heck?

704
01:06:47,880 --> 01:06:52,040
I don't remember doing that. If you buy this keyboard you have to do you have to try to do that when you get it

705
01:06:53,560 --> 01:07:00,760
Yeah, so this f 98 was like 50 bucks and I was dude. I was super impressed by it. This this is super nice

706
01:07:01,560 --> 01:07:12,040
All right, cool Hi lld what single thing in tech has made you feel the oldest my mom's master project was on ray tracing and it is now in a museum

707
01:07:16,760 --> 01:07:21,400
I mean That's sick. That's super cool. Your mom sounds awesome

708
01:07:22,440 --> 01:07:26,280
Just putting that out there. I don't have to try that hard to feel old in tech

709
01:07:26,280 --> 01:07:30,120
Just because so much of my life is just doing tech things and talking about tech

710
01:07:30,760 --> 01:07:34,520
You gotta post whatever that project is on the reddit. Yeah, for sure. Please do that

711
01:07:35,320 --> 01:07:41,720
Sammy or the forum to Sammy pointed out discord too that we're at the five-year anniversary of the i'm thinking about retiring stream that

712
01:07:42,520 --> 01:07:49,640
Completely blew my mind I was playing have I talked on wanchoe before about playing lords of the realm 2 with my son

713
01:07:50,120 --> 01:07:55,800
I have okay. That made me feel pretty old that you know, what was a game that I played when I was

714
01:07:56,760 --> 01:08:04,440
Not much younger than him Looks like, you know crude chicken scratch 2d compared to what exists now

715
01:08:06,840 --> 01:08:12,600
It all makes me feel old like you look at 10 year old games and it's like, uh, it doesn't look too bad

716
01:08:12,760 --> 01:08:14,760
You look at 20 year old games and you're like, oh

717
01:08:15,880 --> 01:08:18,520
That looks pretty old. You look at 30 old games and it's like, whoa

718
01:08:19,160 --> 01:08:21,560
And then and then you remember

719
01:08:22,680 --> 01:08:26,840
How amazing you thought it looked. Oh, yeah, like I remember playing

720
01:08:26,840 --> 01:08:29,880
Especially the 20 year old ones. I remember playing. Um

721
01:08:30,760 --> 01:08:34,760
I thought morwin looks sick Soul reaver legacy of cane

722
01:08:35,560 --> 01:08:40,360
I remember being impressed with the water and morwin. Okay, it's horrible. It's so bad

723
01:08:41,240 --> 01:08:46,840
But I went from like an n64 to that man, whatever So I remember playing this game

724
01:08:47,400 --> 01:08:55,400
Okay, and thinking that the in game, you know seemed kind of like that

725
01:08:56,920 --> 01:09:04,680
Um Box art no this that yeah, that must be a remaster. Hold on. Hold on. Uh, where here we go. Here we go. This is it

726
01:09:05,800 --> 01:09:10,200
It didn't It did not look like the box art. This this is what it looked like

727
01:09:10,840 --> 01:09:15,800
And I remember thinking wow, this looks so incredible. I mean the fact that it was 3d at all blew my mind

728
01:09:15,800 --> 01:09:21,720
Would it come out? Uh, that's a good question soul reaver legacy of cane

729
01:09:22,680 --> 01:09:26,360
But I don't know 1999

730
01:09:26,600 --> 01:09:31,400
That's pretty good for 99. Yeah, I mean it was good for 99, but it doesn't look pretty good

731
01:09:31,480 --> 01:09:38,440
It doesn't look very good today. What about the original mech warriors? Oh, I remember thinking that was just like the boxes

732
01:09:39,160 --> 01:09:42,520
Dude, I didn't dad. I need a better GPU so I could play back warriors of one

733
01:09:42,760 --> 01:09:47,000
I never tried a mech warrior game until like way after the fact

734
01:09:47,080 --> 01:09:51,640
So I was going back and trying to play them once, you know, graphics were good

735
01:09:52,120 --> 01:10:00,360
And I was just like this is not fun Like it's it's not good enough to be fun some some old games still managed to be pretty fun

736
01:10:00,600 --> 01:10:04,440
The biggest problem for me with old games is not the graphics. It's the control schema

737
01:10:04,840 --> 01:10:12,920
Some of the old controls for games are just like yeah, we Go back and you're you're just so confused about the quality of life stuff that we've just take we take that for granted

738
01:10:12,920 --> 01:10:19,080
Yeah, that always gets me. I can overlook a decent amount of that for me. It really it's the controls when you can't change them

739
01:10:20,520 --> 01:10:23,880
Yeah, I'm willing to bet this game would still be fun

740
01:10:25,160 --> 01:10:27,160
This is specter

741
01:10:30,040 --> 01:10:35,480
Whoa, it's a it's a tank game. I guarantee you this game made people motion say oh, there we go. That's a little better

742
01:10:36,280 --> 01:10:42,680
I don't look sick. I don't look looking this good. That is super playable. Yeah, so you had multiple views

743
01:10:43,720 --> 01:10:47,480
And there was a there was a wire frame. There was like a wire frame view

744
01:10:47,960 --> 01:10:53,720
So your tank wouldn't be solid. It could be like, uh, you're gonna see through a little bit. Yeah, it gives me tron vibes

745
01:10:54,440 --> 01:10:58,360
Yeah, it was pretty cool. That's wicked for mac man back when yeah, it looked like this

746
01:10:58,840 --> 01:11:04,680
91 Let's go. Yeah, here it is. Here it is. Here it is. That must have been a banger in 91

747
01:11:04,680 --> 01:11:07,720
And this is this is the explosions when you blow up a tank, dude. It's so cool

748
01:11:08,280 --> 01:11:12,760
I like it because that almost feels like an like a like an art style thing more than a limitation

749
01:11:12,840 --> 01:11:17,960
Which is always cool. I've seen stuff come out these days with that kind of graphic style. Yeah, sweet

750
01:11:18,120 --> 01:11:23,480
What about chips challenge? Did you either of you play chips challenge? I did bummer. I did but bummer

751
01:11:23,720 --> 01:11:27,240
I shook my head. Oh No, that's from they used to say that in the game

752
01:11:27,880 --> 01:11:32,360
Classy. Oh, I don't remember that. I don't even know if my computer had speakers at that point. Mm-hmm

753
01:11:33,160 --> 01:11:37,480
You couldn't take that kind of thing for granted. All right. What kind of midi card you got in there, but

754
01:11:39,320 --> 01:11:42,600
Midi your sound card works perfectly

755
01:11:43,480 --> 01:11:45,480
I got a sound blaster. Oh

756
01:11:48,600 --> 01:11:53,640
Uh, what are we supposed to do? Yeah, james

757
01:11:55,240 --> 01:12:01,640
What plane chat he knows what that's from? Uh, what are we doing now two more topics? What do you want to talk about?

758
01:12:03,240 --> 01:12:05,240
Luke you want to pick one?

759
01:12:06,360 --> 01:12:12,920
Sure Oh, I lied. I'm picking it. I just picked one fine

760
01:12:13,720 --> 01:12:21,240
We can yours fine. No, you'll do yours All right, uh, we can poison ai now and even more. Oh, no, no more ai. Okay. No, we're doing mine

761
01:12:21,480 --> 01:12:27,720
What it's so good talking about ai again. It's so good pebble fami mentioned on wancho pebble's coming back

762
01:12:28,200 --> 01:12:32,360
All right, hackaday reported on a flurry of pebble news this week

763
01:12:32,840 --> 01:12:38,440
Pebble if you guys don't remember was an e-paper smartwatch that was introduced with a Kickstarter in

764
01:12:39,320 --> 01:12:42,760
2012 uh, let's see if we can find some file footage

765
01:12:44,520 --> 01:12:49,320
Pebble watch Oh

766
01:12:50,120 --> 01:12:55,560
Of course, it's all Okay, look at that the first one that's actually from then

767
01:12:56,920 --> 01:13:05,640
This guy What a nerd. I know not her. Yeah, hold on. I mean she might be a nerd. Wait a minute. Oh, it's unskippable

768
01:13:06,120 --> 01:13:10,760
Forget it. I'm over it Anyway, the point is I

769
01:13:10,920 --> 01:13:17,640
Loved the pebble not because it had a bunch of great functionality or because it was the best looking device with the

770
01:13:18,120 --> 01:13:24,360
cleanest most minimalistic design But because it just freaking did what it was supposed to do

771
01:13:24,440 --> 01:13:31,800
Which was it displayed my stupid notifications for me and it had an easy to use interface with physical flipping buttons

772
01:13:32,920 --> 01:13:39,800
Dude, it was so easy to use that I actually still up until I um

773
01:13:41,080 --> 01:13:46,440
Togethered my motorcycle a couple of years ago was still using a pebble time

774
01:13:46,520 --> 01:13:51,640
Which was a successor to this one after so there was this and the pebble steel than the pebble time if I recall correctly

775
01:13:51,960 --> 01:13:56,280
I was still using a pebble time to control media playback when I would ride my motorcycle

776
01:13:56,760 --> 01:13:59,720
I I hot glued a magnet to the back of it

777
01:14:00,120 --> 01:14:04,280
And then I hot glued a magnet to my bike and then I would just put it on there

778
01:14:04,280 --> 01:14:09,240
So I could take it off and charge it and then throw it on my bike for my for my in helmet speakers like

779
01:14:10,200 --> 01:14:14,760
Why the crap? Is no one else making a super energy efficient?

780
01:14:15,400 --> 01:14:22,200
smartwatch with physical buttons is exactly what the uh original pebble founder

781
01:14:22,440 --> 01:14:27,160
Eric Mijakovsky said when he launched repubble.com and was like dang it

782
01:14:27,800 --> 01:14:32,040
If no one's gonna do this after we were acquired by google in 2021

783
01:14:32,520 --> 01:14:37,320
Then are rather acquired by fitbit in 2016 which was then acquired by google in 2021

784
01:14:37,560 --> 01:14:40,040
Then we're just going to bring it back and this is so cool

785
01:14:40,600 --> 01:14:45,400
A team including former pebblers turned googlers has been working on

786
01:14:45,880 --> 01:14:50,920
Open sourcing the os for the last year the code is on github. So not only

787
01:14:52,920 --> 01:14:57,960
Is eric relaunching the pebble with repubble.com so i'm just going to fire this up here

788
01:14:58,680 --> 01:15:02,040
but Oh, hold on

789
01:15:02,760 --> 01:15:09,720
Oh, no, I just typed it But but hold on i'm gonna do this i'm gonna do this successfully open sources popping off on way

790
01:15:10,040 --> 01:15:15,320
Not only is he relaunching some hardware, but this might not be the only hardware

791
01:15:16,280 --> 01:15:23,000
Because the os is open source. That is so cool. That is very cool. That is so flipping cool

792
01:15:24,520 --> 01:15:27,800
Bringing it back. It's open source. We're making new pebble watches

793
01:15:28,520 --> 01:15:33,160
Anyone can use pebble os in any way they want. Do you want a new pebble? Uh, yeah a little bit

794
01:15:34,520 --> 01:15:42,600
Freaking awesome I'm personally really excited because as much as I wear an apple watch. I don't like it

795
01:15:43,400 --> 01:15:48,200
I have never liked a smartwatch the way that I liked my pebble. Oh, it's google

796
01:15:48,760 --> 01:15:53,640
Open sourcing this. Yeah, super cool. I I assumed they left the company to work on this, but yeah

797
01:15:53,640 --> 01:15:55,880
No, this is officially google open sourcing. Yeah

798
01:15:56,680 --> 01:16:03,320
It's so cool Sweet Okay, these announcements have caused some serious excitement for the rebel

799
01:16:03,800 --> 01:16:10,200
Project which has been working since 2016 to maintain an advanced pebble functionality in the absence of pebble technology corp

800
01:16:10,440 --> 01:16:18,120
And does so through their rebel web services Rebels will murphy stated that these developments are massive for rebel and will accelerate our efforts to produce new hardware

801
01:16:18,440 --> 01:16:23,240
Rebel has also announced they're going to become a non-profit organization and allow the community to take ownership of the project

802
01:16:23,480 --> 01:16:27,880
Check out rebel.io. That's rebel.r e b b l e

803
01:16:28,440 --> 01:16:35,400
Dot i o for more information. Wow. I didn't realize kind of how how deep this went. No, this is this is so cool

804
01:16:35,400 --> 01:16:41,560
I actually had a call with eric Last week where he was just kind of talking about

805
01:16:42,280 --> 01:16:46,040
Um, you know potential ways to work together and stuff like that and I was like look

806
01:16:46,040 --> 01:16:49,560
What it really just boils down to for me is i'm stoked

807
01:16:50,520 --> 01:16:56,440
Sick so like as soon as you guys have got some new hardware i'm like i'm so in i'm i'm so ready. Yeah, yeah

808
01:16:56,920 --> 01:16:58,920
Super exciting

809
01:17:00,520 --> 01:17:03,640
Fine you can talk about your ai somewhere. Let's go talk about your ai

810
01:17:04,200 --> 01:17:10,760
We can poison ai in even more ways now Several methods of poisoning ai models have been circulating for a while now

811
01:17:11,000 --> 01:17:15,480
While none of them are 100 effective at tricking computers and have trade-offs

812
01:17:15,800 --> 01:17:20,680
They have been successful at making scraping data more expensive and more difficult for these companies

813
01:17:21,080 --> 01:17:27,880
With the aim of reducing ai's long-term feasibility and all four are available for you to use now

814
01:17:28,440 --> 01:17:35,960
youtuber fami Often written with a four instead of the a has made a video demonstrating how to use the dot

815
01:17:36,840 --> 01:17:43,640
ass Subtitle format or dot. We have to believe that like I don't know. I mean, it's technically dot ass

816
01:17:43,720 --> 01:17:50,440
Yeah, so dot ass. It just is what it is. I'm not I'm not swearing. I'm just saying what it is. Yeah dot ass dot ass

817
01:17:52,520 --> 01:18:00,200
Yeah Anyways, uh, she demonstrates how you can use the dot ass subtitle format to combat trawlers or crawlers from stealing content

818
01:18:00,440 --> 01:18:07,720
By adding junk caption data that should only affect ai nice a professor at the university of chicago and his students have created tools

819
01:18:08,280 --> 01:18:11,400
Glaze and nightshade these are again these these ones aren't new

820
01:18:11,800 --> 01:18:16,680
That scramble how ai interprets photos slash art with minimal visible changes to the human eye

821
01:18:17,080 --> 01:18:21,880
And an anonymous dev angry that metas crawler ignored their website's policy and hit their website

822
01:18:23,240 --> 01:18:26,200
30 million times struck back with malware

823
01:18:27,080 --> 01:18:34,920
nup n fees It's a tar pitting tool that traps ai in an infinite maze of static files with no exit links, which is pretty sick

824
01:18:35,640 --> 01:18:41,560
And fees some garbage data Discussion question. Can you think of any better file type other than dot ass?

825
01:18:42,200 --> 01:18:46,040
Um, and I think no, no, I don't think I can't be completely honest

826
01:18:46,600 --> 01:18:55,080
Uh, extremely well well thought of um Do these tools give you hope in the fight against the ai takeover of creative ventures and possibly humanity itself? Nope

827
01:18:55,720 --> 01:19:00,360
Uh, nope, but it's fun. It's interesting. Yeah, it's great. I mean and if you want to protect your stuff do it

828
01:19:00,520 --> 01:19:04,680
Resistance is cool. Even if it's futile. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah do it

829
01:19:05,640 --> 01:19:09,960
yeah The models have already been trained and open sourced and put out there

830
01:19:10,600 --> 01:19:14,440
It's already been done. Uh, but again, really if you do want to protect your stuff

831
01:19:14,600 --> 01:19:18,760
If you are a particular artist, I think and you have a particular style

832
01:19:19,320 --> 01:19:22,680
Um, I think poisoning all your stuff could be a really good idea

833
01:19:23,160 --> 01:19:30,280
Um, because then you could keep your style from being trained on very effectively or you could resist your style from being trained on very effectively

834
01:19:30,680 --> 01:19:33,960
Um, and I think that's the main use for this stuff is like individual

835
01:19:34,680 --> 01:19:40,040
Uh stylistic Defense, I don't think it's going to stop, you know

836
01:19:40,600 --> 01:19:45,960
Um, the wave from happening, but you might be able to resist your specific flavor

837
01:19:46,920 --> 01:19:52,520
So in other cool news. Yeah steam os expands beyond the steam deck. Check out family's content. She's cool

838
01:19:53,000 --> 01:19:56,440
In the lead up to the Lenovo Legion go s launch

839
01:19:56,920 --> 01:19:59,800
Valve will be improving compatibility with other

840
01:20:00,120 --> 01:20:05,160
Handhelds and we'll be shipping a beta of steam os which should improve the experience on other handholds

841
01:20:05,480 --> 01:20:08,680
Users can download and test this for themselves. Of course

842
01:20:08,920 --> 01:20:13,320
We will continue adding support and improving the experience with future releases. I

843
01:20:13,800 --> 01:20:19,080
am Super bullish on steam os. I freaking love steam os. I can't wait to use it as

844
01:20:19,720 --> 01:20:23,480
a Oh, well, I was going to say desktop operating system, but that's not actually the truth

845
01:20:23,480 --> 01:20:28,520
What I want to use it for is a living room operating system. Bring back the steam machine. Yeah, dude

846
01:20:28,680 --> 01:20:32,440
I'm stoked like dude. I have a I have a Windows machine in my family room

847
01:20:33,000 --> 01:20:37,000
Which you probably don't know because you've probably never seen me turn it on because it's annoying

848
01:20:37,560 --> 01:20:44,520
Because it runs Windows, but is configured to just launch steam in big picture mode every time it turns on except that

849
01:20:45,320 --> 01:20:52,440
Because I only use it very infrequently Whenever I turn it on there's been some stupid Windows up there wants me to go through the Windows setup wizard again

850
01:20:52,440 --> 01:20:57,160
I'm like, I don't have a keyboard connected to this. I don't want this. I wanted to just work

851
01:20:58,040 --> 01:21:02,440
I know I don't want to use edge Not now

852
01:21:02,440 --> 01:21:05,560
microsoft Are you sure?

853
01:21:05,560 --> 01:21:08,760
Yeah, I'm sure are you sure. I'm really sure not now

854
01:21:09,480 --> 01:21:14,360
I want to just use my software And not yours

855
01:21:16,360 --> 01:21:22,200
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I'm dude. I'm I'm so excited. I'm so excited more steam os

856
01:21:22,840 --> 01:21:26,040
Yeah, I agree Yeah, what else we got

857
01:21:26,120 --> 01:21:29,240
Sony removes psn requirements on four pc games

858
01:21:29,320 --> 01:21:35,560
Sony has removed the mandatory playstation account requirement from four single player pc games spider-man 2 last of us part 2 god of war

859
01:21:35,560 --> 01:21:41,080
Ragnarok horizon zero don remastered. Are there any original ip's anymore? These are literally all sequels, but go ahead carry on

860
01:21:42,040 --> 01:21:50,040
This is too incentive. Oh, sorry. No to incentivize people to still sign in there will be content unlocks when you connect to your account

861
01:21:50,040 --> 01:21:56,760
Okay, I actually you know what? Yeah, if you if you need horse armor that badly then go ahead link your account

862
01:21:56,840 --> 01:22:00,200
And if you just can't be arsed then hey you have that option now that is sweet

863
01:22:00,600 --> 01:22:05,000
That is a good way to do it. I don't mind them doing some amount of incentive like you know

864
01:22:05,320 --> 01:22:11,160
It is what it is This comes nearly after a year of the backlash around the post launch psn requirement for hell divers too

865
01:22:11,480 --> 01:22:19,000
Locking people in territories not served by psn This is the entire reason why this matters out of the game that they have already paid for to be clear

866
01:22:19,160 --> 01:22:22,680
There are regions in the world whole countries that cannot get

867
01:22:23,240 --> 01:22:31,160
PSN, but we're able to buy these games So it literally banned them from playing their own game that they owned or potentially banned them from buying it at all in the

868
01:22:31,160 --> 01:22:34,120
Future, which is nuts. So that's that's going away, which is good

869
01:22:34,520 --> 01:22:41,720
Also force horizon 5 is coming to ps5 this spring. How did I miss this? Are you kidding me? Really is halo next question mark

870
01:22:41,720 --> 01:22:44,760
I know a lot of people have been saying that they think starfield is coming soon

871
01:22:45,400 --> 01:22:52,120
Who cares no one cares about that one Okay, cool, but but it's an xbox exclusive title forza on playstation

872
01:22:52,200 --> 01:22:56,120
That's pretty wild because it was always Gran Turismo versus forza. Well, yeah, yeah

873
01:22:56,920 --> 01:23:00,360
What? It's weird announced today. Apparently, yeah

874
01:23:00,920 --> 01:23:06,200
Whoa That's wild. Sorry. I'm still I'm still reeling from this one. That's

875
01:23:08,440 --> 01:23:16,600
That was a historic battle for decades I think is this the last generation of xbox like haven't they said they're working on next gen hardware

876
01:23:16,680 --> 01:23:22,600
What's the point? Sorry someone in full point chat said starfield was fantastic until dot dot dot the event and by that

877
01:23:22,680 --> 01:23:28,200
I think they mean the launch date. Yeah, I'm not I'm not really sure what it could really mean other than that

878
01:23:30,680 --> 01:23:33,960
Yeah, um loading zone enjoyer

879
01:23:38,200 --> 01:23:41,880
Other annoying AI annoying news. I'm gonna do another fun thing. Cool

880
01:23:42,760 --> 01:23:46,440
We played wandshow on our school's jumbo tron and sound system

881
01:23:47,160 --> 01:23:50,920
How cool is this? Whoa

882
01:23:50,920 --> 01:23:55,960
Yeah, right That's so sick. This is so cool

883
01:23:58,200 --> 01:24:07,400
Ridiculously geeky Like what anyway cool. That's amazing. I love stuff like that. That is so cool

884
01:24:07,880 --> 01:24:10,680
That's like I I think one of the reasons why I love stuff like that is because

885
01:24:11,080 --> 01:24:16,680
Absolutely That is the type of thing that I would want to do if I was in if I was that person. Oh, yeah, that's what I do

886
01:24:17,080 --> 01:24:23,160
And the next thing I do is put crisis on it. Let's play something fun on the jumbo tron for whatever reason. Yeah, let's get something silly up there

887
01:24:23,640 --> 01:24:28,600
That's sick. I love it. I love it. Nice screen. Good looking. Yeah, actually looks pretty good

888
01:24:29,080 --> 01:24:33,880
That's a nice facility. Yeah, man school sports in the u.s. Is one of those things that

889
01:24:34,520 --> 01:24:40,680
Growing up in canada where the biggest sport at my high school was definitely rugby and

890
01:24:41,720 --> 01:24:45,880
About four people cared other than the players

891
01:24:45,960 --> 01:24:52,520
Like there'd be the school announcements on monday or whatever and the rugby team had a result against uh

892
01:24:52,680 --> 01:24:57,000
MRSS and no one responds and literally no one is even listening like

893
01:24:57,800 --> 01:25:01,560
Nobody cared. No one really goes to the sport unless they have like a significant other playing

894
01:25:02,520 --> 01:25:06,440
And even then it's like even then it's like dude. I don't know. It's raining like

895
01:25:07,320 --> 01:25:09,800
Tell me about it after like dude. No one

896
01:25:10,520 --> 01:25:15,640
No one cared and so I made it all the way to adulthood having no idea that like

897
01:25:16,360 --> 01:25:24,520
High school level sports are televised in the u.s. Dude, I went to with my with my grandpa who used to live in arizona

898
01:25:24,680 --> 01:25:27,560
we went to a university of arizona football game and

899
01:25:28,440 --> 01:25:33,240
It was genuinely deeply difficult for me to comprehend that this was not an nfl game

900
01:25:35,320 --> 01:25:38,920
It was a massive stadium

901
01:25:39,000 --> 01:25:44,360
The stands were full There was people like with body paint that spelled things

902
01:25:44,600 --> 01:25:50,040
They had a marching band like a massive one that came out during they had a whole crazy halftime show

903
01:25:51,160 --> 01:25:56,920
All this stuff. Here's my high school This is the field that they play rugby on

904
01:25:57,560 --> 01:26:02,040
Where's your jumbo tron now? Yeah, where's even some bleachers?

905
01:26:02,600 --> 01:26:09,400
Yeah, definitely not existence. They literally do not even have a place for spectators

906
01:26:10,040 --> 01:26:12,040
Because they know nobody's gonna watch

907
01:26:16,120 --> 01:26:20,360
We didn't even we had tennis courts. We did not have a tennis team. Oh, is this pickleball?

908
01:26:20,360 --> 01:26:25,240
Is this someone in full-play chat right? Rye saw in full-play chat said the biggest university stadiums in the u.s.

909
01:26:25,240 --> 01:26:31,880
Are almost twice as big as the university of arizona stadium that place was enormous. It's like hard to

910
01:26:32,440 --> 01:26:39,560
Man, this is I don't know. I don't know. I understand a lot more people live down there, but like dang that's that's crazy

911
01:26:40,040 --> 01:26:46,920
Um Webb says I've heard college is bigger too. That's true. Absolutely. Dude college sports in the states is

912
01:26:47,880 --> 01:26:55,480
As big if not bigger than I would say professional sports is here like it's it's a whole thing, man

913
01:26:56,280 --> 01:27:00,840
and Oh man, yeah

914
01:27:00,840 --> 01:27:05,240
Here's my high school You can barely even tell where the fields are

915
01:27:05,800 --> 01:27:10,040
Yeah No, it's green. There's muscle. It is green and there happens to be like

916
01:27:11,000 --> 01:27:14,840
You could put a line between the fields if you were kind of feeling like it that day

917
01:27:15,560 --> 01:27:21,000
Our track is just like the dirt stuff that's around them. You guys had natural track. That was pretty cool. Yeah. Yeah

918
01:27:21,160 --> 01:27:27,160
Ours is also a square. This has been improved since I was there for sure too though. That's worth that's worth noting

919
01:27:27,720 --> 01:27:32,040
Um, yeah, sorry. I can put this back up. It was quite not like this when I was there

920
01:27:32,200 --> 01:27:39,960
It looks like uh, mine was not Yeah, this this wasn't ours. By the way, this belonged to the elementary school who were also nobody watched anybody play

921
01:27:40,920 --> 01:27:45,320
Um, and it's not just that like it's not just like oh well like Linus's school sucked

922
01:27:46,040 --> 01:27:49,800
um I mean it probably has fewer

923
01:27:50,120 --> 01:27:57,000
You know stars than the other one, but like yeah, no, here's the other one This was like the school where people cared about the sports a lot when I was growing up

924
01:27:57,160 --> 01:28:00,440
They had one little stands area. Yeah, that's it. That's all they got

925
01:28:00,440 --> 01:28:04,200
But the fact that they had like an actual track was huge

926
01:28:07,000 --> 01:28:09,640
That was a big deal. Yeah, here let's go. Here we go

927
01:28:10,520 --> 01:28:19,160
Thomas Haney Thomas Haney school. Uh, yeah, they don't even have a track. Yeah, they do have a baseball diamond. That's crazy. So that's something

928
01:28:19,960 --> 01:28:24,200
Uh, I guarantee you they never play baseball there. It's probably like just for california kickball

929
01:28:24,200 --> 01:28:27,960
Oh, no, no, they've got actual they've got what appear to be kind of dugouts and they do

930
01:28:27,960 --> 01:28:32,600
Oh, they you know what this may actually be used. They've got they've got stands and everything. I didn't go there

931
01:28:32,600 --> 01:28:36,680
So I didn't I don't know how big I don't know how big a baseball was at this school

932
01:28:36,680 --> 01:28:41,720
Brookswood secondary if I remember correctly Brookswood secondary did not have I can tell you this looks like a problem

933
01:28:44,120 --> 01:28:47,560
Like especially given that right-handed hitters are going to pull this way

934
01:28:48,040 --> 01:28:50,360
Maybe they're maybe they just know it'll be fine

935
01:28:51,400 --> 01:28:54,840
Dyslexic stoner 240 asked what is california kickball?

936
01:28:55,640 --> 01:29:01,560
It's pretty much baseball But with like a giant rubber ball and you just roll it. So it's like

937
01:29:02,440 --> 01:29:08,520
Especially when you're young kids And you you don't have the hand-eye coordination to hit a baseball or a softball

938
01:29:08,680 --> 01:29:11,320
It's so that you can start to learn the rules of baseball

939
01:29:11,880 --> 01:29:18,360
But you just like you just you just kick it. Yeah, you just like roll. It's actually decently fun when you're like elementary school

940
01:29:18,360 --> 01:29:23,480
Yeah, yeah, until you know, everyone can just freaking boot it

941
01:29:24,120 --> 01:29:28,760
It's pretty fun. People are saying that's just kickball up here. I remember it being called california kickball

942
01:29:28,920 --> 01:29:31,880
Yeah, I don't I don't know. I don't know. Maybe there was a difference. I have no idea

943
01:29:32,840 --> 01:29:35,880
Apparently, it's just called kid. What makes it california. I don't know. That's just what we called it

944
01:29:35,960 --> 01:29:40,120
What do you what do you want from me? All right, google? This is like a royale with cheese thing or you know

945
01:29:40,600 --> 01:29:42,600
French drawers are just called doors in france

946
01:29:44,920 --> 01:29:46,920
Thanks for that Dan

947
01:29:48,840 --> 01:29:55,720
Is there a difference I don't know while kickball and california kickball are often used interchangeably

948
01:29:55,720 --> 01:30:01,320
The main distinction is that california kickball is essentially just a regional term for the game of kickball

949
01:30:02,280 --> 01:30:05,960
Particularly popularized in the california area and I guess bc

950
01:30:06,600 --> 01:30:12,440
Often applying a slightly more relaxed or casual approach to the game's rules compared to the more structured kickball leagues elsewhere

951
01:30:12,520 --> 01:30:15,560
Oh, interesting. So this is kind of like a ping-pong table tennis thing

952
01:30:16,200 --> 01:30:22,440
where technically I believe the the differences in the game are like so

953
01:30:23,000 --> 01:30:27,320
minor that only You know someone at a competitive level would care

954
01:30:27,640 --> 01:30:30,280
Uh, but functionally speaking they're like kind of the same thing

955
01:30:30,760 --> 01:30:34,760
Oh, wait the the stadium manager of that football field is in football

956
01:30:37,400 --> 01:30:41,160
That's pretty sick. Yeah, so they are essentially the same game

957
01:30:41,480 --> 01:30:45,080
The difference is one of perception table tennis is an olympic sport

958
01:30:45,720 --> 01:30:48,600
and respected while ping pong is

959
01:30:49,720 --> 01:30:54,760
A hobby or recreational activity. Yeah, so california kickball is the whatever version

960
01:30:54,840 --> 01:30:58,920
Yeah, and and like okay badminton has something similar if somebody calls it a birdie

961
01:30:59,240 --> 01:31:04,760
You know that they're just like a wreck like they play in the backyard or whatever. They don't actually play badminton. They just like

962
01:31:06,040 --> 01:31:11,000
Whereas if they call it a shuttle, then you know that they actually like know the sport and care and like play

963
01:31:12,360 --> 01:31:15,960
I feel like those types of things exist like

964
01:31:15,960 --> 01:31:19,320
For practically everything. Yeah, sure. It's just like are you are it's so

965
01:31:20,040 --> 01:31:23,880
Are you in it or are you just an enjoy healthy casual? Yeah. Yeah

966
01:31:25,560 --> 01:31:32,440
Yeah, it's fair like it's fair. I'm looking around. I I can't think of um, I know of one school

967
01:31:33,320 --> 01:31:39,400
Sort of around here two I know of two schools that have like fields where you could really watch people play

968
01:31:39,720 --> 01:31:46,600
But I think it's mostly because those fields happen to be there and they're more community fields than really the schools fields

969
01:31:46,600 --> 01:31:49,160
But the school is right next to it. So they're like, ah, we might as well use it too

970
01:31:49,640 --> 01:31:52,760

1001
01:34:37,800 --> 01:34:41,000
Okay, whatever the point is i'm gonna go off the script because these were super fun

1002

I actually did this one with my kids Um, so you get you get the picture on the box

1003

And then you also get like a like a story

1004
01:34:49,640 --> 01:34:54,600
And then the final puzzle is a little bit different from the box

1005
01:34:55,000 --> 01:35:00,600
So almost everything changes a little bit so you can see right there that tv that they're working on fixing

1006
01:35:01,080 --> 01:35:05,240
Is fixed in the final one. Yeah, it's it's super cool

1008
01:35:08,920 --> 01:35:14,120

All right, we're supposed to do three merge messages now go ahead hit me Dan

1016
01:35:50,520 --> 01:35:55,000
Sure thing. Let me just get to the place where they are. Hi l2d1

1017
01:35:55,400 --> 01:36:01,720
I'm not a morning person. So I have a pretty elaborate morning ritual. Can you walk me through your typical morning?

1018
01:36:02,680 --> 01:36:07,640
Oh, man, okay sure So I am also

1019
01:36:07,960 --> 01:36:10,440
Not a morning person. I do not sleep well

1020
01:36:11,160 --> 01:36:15,320
But my kids need to get to school So most mornings, um

1021
01:36:15,960 --> 01:36:19,320
We either teamwork getting lunches ready or

1022
01:36:19,880 --> 01:36:24,440
More often lately because Yvonne is a saint and she's been coming into the office less lately

1023
01:36:24,840 --> 01:36:31,800
She'll do the lunches and get the kids out the door and then I will drive them. So I get to get up like

1024
01:36:32,600 --> 01:36:37,160
20 minutes later, which is pretty nice. That's pretty good. Yep. That's not nothing. Um

1025
01:36:39,160 --> 01:36:45,240
I Usually don't eat breakfast. I know I really really really really really really should

1026
01:36:46,120 --> 01:36:48,840
Uh, what else? I'm no longer a morning shower

1027
01:36:49,880 --> 01:36:51,960
I'm a I'm a late night bathroom

1028
01:36:52,920 --> 01:36:59,800
um I haven't been able to give up the morning shower despite also extremely not being a morning person because I just I just

1029
01:36:59,880 --> 01:37:04,040
Swear so much at night. I can't Really even with your hate sleep

1030
01:37:04,520 --> 01:37:09,720
Yeah, it still happens What I can't keep the entirety of me. I'm a I'm a big boy

1031
01:37:11,000 --> 01:37:15,000
Only some of me can touch the bed, man some of it's up

1032
01:37:15,000 --> 01:37:17,400
I'll be cooking on I'm like a

1033
01:37:18,360 --> 01:37:24,200
Like a not properly flipped steak I'll be cooking on one side and cold on the other and I'll have to like

1034
01:37:24,680 --> 01:37:29,880
Roll over enough and if I'm not if I don't actively roll over enough while sleeping, I'll wake up and I will be like

1035
01:37:30,600 --> 01:37:36,680
Hot on one side and cool on the other I think we should do a cooled blanket video or something because does that exist?

1036
01:37:36,680 --> 01:37:39,320
Can you get a cool to blanket blanket? I don't think so

1037
01:37:39,960 --> 01:37:45,720
Wait, I think the chance that you get a leak out of a blanket would be like No, I think you can get ones that like blow air through it

1038
01:37:45,720 --> 01:37:50,120
But the problem is that there's no way Emma would want that so it would have to be just the one side

1039
01:37:50,360 --> 01:37:54,360
Yeah, so we have to do like you know, you can set up a curve like a sleeping curve

1040
01:37:55,320 --> 01:37:58,120
Where it changes the temperature over the night. Yeah, we're not doing that

1041
01:37:58,600 --> 01:38:02,360
No, no, no, I'm not um, and you're you're supposed to like raise it at certain points and stuff

1042
01:38:02,680 --> 01:38:06,440
Mine is literally just cranked at the absolute bottom

1043
01:38:07,400 --> 01:38:15,400
and I That's that's the best I can do. Okay, so I'm not promising anything, but I will I will uh

1044
01:38:15,960 --> 01:38:19,720
If it's gonna leak all over my everywhere, I don't know if I uh, well look I

1045
01:38:20,440 --> 01:38:24,200
I take no responsibility for any of that. I don't know. I don't even know what you're talking about

1046
01:38:24,200 --> 01:38:28,680
But what I'll say is Dan if you could fire over to um,

1047
01:38:28,680 --> 01:38:32,680
Vance to add to the next writers meeting How heavy is it gonna be?

1048
01:38:33,160 --> 01:38:36,360
Luke Okay

1049
01:38:36,360 --> 01:38:42,200
Do you look a gift horse in the mouth? If it's not really a gift maybe what am I telling Vance?

1050
01:38:42,600 --> 01:38:49,160
Uh, we're gonna try and figure out a water cooled blanket for Luke. I think that's uh, I think it's the right thing to do

1051
01:38:49,800 --> 01:38:52,680
I think water cooled blanket for Luke is the right thing to do

1052
01:38:53,080 --> 01:38:57,720
So it just feels right. I don't have to take morning shower. It feels right. Yeah, it feels right

1053
01:38:58,120 --> 01:39:02,600
I bet what we could even do is we could probably modify your eight sleep

1054
01:39:03,320 --> 01:39:06,680
So that we um, so that we branch off

1055
01:39:07,400 --> 01:39:12,360
Of the mattress side of it and we actually redirect some of the water flow into the top

1056
01:39:12,920 --> 01:39:17,000
layer part Anyway, but we won't get too deep into the plan right now, but I'm

1057
01:39:17,960 --> 01:39:26,120
I think we could do it This is this is off topic, but somebody told me to look up allen high school in texas and my brain actually exploded

1058
01:39:26,280 --> 01:39:28,280
I'm flipping over to your laptop

1059
01:39:29,960 --> 01:39:32,200
This is a cluster of

1060
01:39:33,160 --> 01:39:39,000
Five baseball fields. This looks like four more baseball steals. No, no, that can't be baseball here. Can you zoom in more?

1061
01:39:39,880 --> 01:39:48,280
Oh wait softball So they they delineate that so they have four softball fields five baseball fields one of them being like way big

1062
01:39:48,760 --> 01:39:54,520
They have an aquatic center over there. They have all of these tennis courts here. They have a park

1063
01:39:55,160 --> 01:40:02,120
Uh, they have some some this is all still the school. Yes, they have all these that's not two schools

1064
01:40:02,280 --> 01:40:08,600
Which is baseball more baseball and softball fields are like pro-ass looking baseball fields

1065
01:40:08,840 --> 01:40:13,160
They have whatever how many teams do they have they have eagle stadium

1066
01:40:14,760 --> 01:40:19,080
This is high school the allen eagles

1067
01:40:20,200 --> 01:40:26,760
Allen eagle just sounds like a dude. It doesn't sound like a sports team. It does look at this stadium, dude

1068
01:40:28,120 --> 01:40:34,760
Oh, man, and it has a huge parking lot because I guess people like flip and go to are these something

1069
01:40:34,840 --> 01:40:41,560
What is this? I don't know the edge the edge. I'll say the park. This is still the high school. I don't know what this is

1070
01:40:42,440 --> 01:40:47,640
But it's still a high school might be a competitive rowing. It literally might be this might be water

1071
01:40:47,880 --> 01:40:56,120
What the flip is going on here? That school has a subway like do you mean the restaurant or the at this point? I don't know or the train

1072
01:40:57,080 --> 01:41:01,640
Oh nox allen station Uh, maybe they mean the train

1073
01:41:02,600 --> 01:41:05,720
No, I don't it's like houses and maybe they mean both

1074
01:41:06,520 --> 01:41:09,320
Yeah, maybe water skiing shut up. No way

1075
01:41:10,120 --> 01:41:19,800
Water cooling might This is not uncommon for high schools in texas says boom zero zero my old home town with like 25,000 people is this size

1076
01:41:20,680 --> 01:41:26,520
You got to be kidding me here. Can I why can't I see information on the aquatics the lower freshman center?

1077
01:41:26,760 --> 01:41:33,320
Yes subway restaurant. Okay. That's not even I mean, uh, well, well, okay. He has a timis

1078
01:41:33,480 --> 01:41:38,840
Yeah, but that bc it is a post-secondary institution true. Why is this panel off the screen? What happened?

1079
01:41:39,880 --> 01:41:43,000
I don't know Anyway, okay. I think we get the point

1080
01:41:43,560 --> 01:41:47,000
wild absolutely wild

1081
01:41:47,960 --> 01:41:49,960
I zoom the browser. Oh, I totally did okay

1082
01:41:51,800 --> 01:42:01,640
proton mail Politically neutral and privacy-first encrypted email service proton mail has been under fire for both posting and seeming pro g.o.p

1083
01:42:01,800 --> 01:42:09,720
Biased and being not so private They've recently handed over a user's information to french legal authorities and admitted that they would hand over any info

1084
01:42:09,880 --> 01:42:13,160
They have if prompted by authorities to comply with swiss law

1085
01:42:13,880 --> 01:42:17,880
This includes email subjects headers senders recipients times, but

1086
01:42:18,680 --> 01:42:21,880
Notably not the body of the emails themselves

1087
01:42:22,600 --> 01:42:27,160
They have also been under fire for posting praise for certain aspects of the us republican party

1088
01:42:27,560 --> 01:42:33,960
The original tweet from the ceo said 10 years ago republicans were the party of big business and dems stood for the little guys

1089
01:42:34,120 --> 01:42:42,440
But today the tables have completely turned Uh, the official comment or the original comment from the official proton reddit account said until corporate dems are thrown out

1090
01:42:42,520 --> 01:42:46,840
The reality is that republicans remain more likely to tackle big tech abuses

1091
01:42:47,640 --> 01:42:54,200
From the damage control thread the ceo posted big tech CEOs are tripping over themselves to kiss the ring

1092
01:42:55,000 --> 01:43:00,680
Because the new president represents an unprecedented challenge to their monopolistic dominance

1093
01:43:01,640 --> 01:43:05,800
Um, lina con being out now. I don't I guess we're not commenting on what they're saying

1094
01:43:05,880 --> 01:43:11,160
I don't think yeah. I'm not commenting on what they're saying I'm just throwing this out there and as far as I'm concerned

1095
01:43:11,720 --> 01:43:16,440
As far as I could tell neither the democrats nor the republicans wanted lina conan. So yeah

1096
01:43:16,680 --> 01:43:23,160
I'm pro lina con. Fair enough. Yeah. Yeah, she's the only one that actually has my support lina con for prime minister of canada. Thank you

1097
01:43:25,400 --> 01:43:30,040

01:43:36,520 --> 01:43:40,280

Yeah, meta ai now automatically uses your facebook and instagram data and messages to personalize auto responses with no option to opt out

1101
01:43:48,600 --> 01:43:57,960

01:47:14,920 --> 01:47:19,240
Yeah, what even is this is gov using proprietary usbc cables

1136
01:47:19,720 --> 01:47:27,480
ltt4 member viper 7 reports that gov cameras will only work with the included usbc to c cable

1137
01:47:28,440 --> 01:47:34,600
So rather than replacing a too short cable users are buying extensions to use with the included cables

1138
01:47:35,720 --> 01:47:40,360
um Turns out we don't have any gov cameras on hand to confirm these reports

1139
01:47:40,360 --> 01:47:45,560
So we're asking the when audience instead and I guess the the main reason that I wanted to bring this up is because

1140
01:47:46,280 --> 01:47:53,320
Why does usb have to be usbc specifically have to be such a broken weird freaking stupid standard?

1141
01:47:54,360 --> 01:47:59,000
It doesn't seem that hard and I'm very excited for us to bring our cables to market and do

1142
01:47:59,640 --> 01:48:04,440
Our small part to fix this so they're just going to be clearly labeled with the wattage in the data rate

1143
01:48:05,160 --> 01:48:09,800
and that's it simple Simple they've been a sponsor, right?

1144
01:48:10,120 --> 01:48:13,160
Yeah, that was one of the reasons that I wanted to bring it up. Yeah, so we should try to

1145
01:48:13,880 --> 01:48:19,400
If you have them try to um Elijah says I have a feeling this could be a case of someone using a wrong spec like a power

1146
01:48:19,880 --> 01:48:22,280
Why do the power only cables exist?

1147
01:48:23,400 --> 01:48:26,760
I know it's good to save four cents on your cable or whatever, but uh

1148
01:48:28,200 --> 01:48:33,080
Yeah, I wonder what it is. Um, I suspect it's I suspect that's right. I suspect that's it

1149
01:48:33,320 --> 01:48:36,680
Yeah, if you have one, uh, try to test it plus it on the forum or something. Yeah

1150
01:48:37,560 --> 01:48:44,760
All right, is this it is it went after dark? I think so. Oh wait. No pre went after dark announcement. Yes

1151
01:48:45,480 --> 01:48:53,480
Behind every great chief vision officer eyeball. There are executives that have to wrangle said chief vision officer

1152
01:48:53,800 --> 01:48:58,520
and on Floatplane We've had exec week where you can meet some of them

1153
01:49:01,240 --> 01:49:06,200
James drive nick light and tarantong all sat down for interviews with the one and

1154
01:49:07,400 --> 01:49:13,960
Sammy So we can go over to the exclusives and you can meet the team all three of these guys

1155
01:49:14,600 --> 01:49:20,840
Um, they did a great job. They were good sports and that's our that's our Floatplane exclusive update for the week

1156
01:49:21,000 --> 01:49:26,840
Let's go If meeting execs isn't your cup of tea you can watch my wisdom tooth post surgery

1157
01:49:28,920 --> 01:49:36,120
Drug trip Or you can catch up on why is when late since there is a new episode next week

1158
01:49:36,680 --> 01:49:41,080
A bunch of people saying taryn's interview is really good. Uh, some people asking where mine is

1159
01:49:41,080 --> 01:49:46,040
I had a whole week to myself because i'm a special little flower. I guess so you can check out our special boy

1160
01:49:47,880 --> 01:49:53,000
Yeah, I think I think weeks are generally three videos for Floatplane. So you you get three people

1161
01:49:53,560 --> 01:49:57,640
Got him. All right. What else we got after dark? Yeah, let's do it. Yeah

1162
01:49:58,680 --> 01:50:05,080
Dan you're up. I got to push a couple buttons first. Look at this guy. Wait for it. Wait for it and

1163
01:50:05,800 --> 01:50:12,760
There was some people talking in I don't remember where it was that they missed the actual dark after dark

1164
01:50:12,840 --> 01:50:19,240
I was about to say those words exactly. Yep. I miss it too. I understand the reason how dare you steal my words

1165
01:50:20,680 --> 01:50:24,280
Pretty good. They were my words pretty good at it. You're good at it. How are you? You at it?

1166
01:50:29,240 --> 01:50:35,800
Okay The pre-show viewers will get in and I'm not explaining that

1167
01:50:39,560 --> 01:50:44,680
But yeah, I understand the reasoning and you know, it's probably still the correct reasoning, but I do miss it being dark

1168
01:50:45,720 --> 01:50:49,160
I do Dude, don't don't even

1169
01:50:50,120 --> 01:50:56,040
Look at these guys still unneeding words the regular the regular show cannot handle that

1170
01:50:57,080 --> 01:50:59,240
You are too spicy for the pepper, sir

1171
01:51:02,200 --> 01:51:05,320
Oh All right

1172
01:51:05,320 --> 01:51:08,040
All right, let's get back to the most important part of the show

1173
01:51:08,920 --> 01:51:10,920
Where I get to talk

1174
01:51:18,520 --> 01:51:24,120
Oh, man. All right. Anyways, uh, I'm loving I apologize for what I did

1175
01:51:25,320 --> 01:51:30,760
Um, oh you admit it. You're terrible. Oh, right. I'm loving the look of lost point. I lost point. Yeah

1176
01:51:31,320 --> 01:51:38,760
Personal attack against him mark for Dan. Yep. Yeah, I'm loving the look of the new shirt and that I can wear it at work

1177
01:51:39,160 --> 01:51:45,640
When will we get some pants to go with it? Would love to have a full ldd office appropriate set. Oh the tech pants are back in development

1178
01:51:46,520 --> 01:51:48,520
so, um, they

1179
01:51:51,880 --> 01:51:57,000
The the original prototypes which uh, we went through like five revisions on all of them

1180
01:51:57,720 --> 01:52:00,760
Suffered from a condition that I call vagina pocket

1181
01:52:01,160 --> 01:52:05,720
syndrome We're basically they had zipper pockets because

1182
01:52:06,360 --> 01:52:10,760
Even on like a like a dress your pant we

1183
01:52:10,840 --> 01:52:15,560
I just Even on a dress your pant. We didn't want your stuff to fall out of your pockets

1184
01:52:16,040 --> 01:52:19,480
So we had zippers on the main pockets, but the problem

1185
01:52:20,920 --> 01:52:29,880
The problem was that whenever the zippers were undone Because it was like inside a thing and there was a fold it kind of looked like you had two vaginas on your hips

1186
01:52:30,840 --> 01:52:36,760
so we We like do you have like penis pocket problems when you put your screwdriver in your pocket? No, no

1187
01:52:36,760 --> 01:52:44,360
No, we definitely don't have pockets there for screwdrivers, but if we did it would be a problem. Anyway, uh, the point is that it, um

1188
01:52:45,880 --> 01:52:50,680
We couldn't solve vagina pocket syndrome. So we kind of canceled the tech pants

1189
01:52:51,320 --> 01:52:59,240
Okay, it looked it looked It looked really bad. It wasn't even just like oh Linus you have such a sick mind. Whatever

1190
01:52:59,880 --> 01:53:03,320
Like in the meeting we're all standing there. Oh my god

1191
01:53:03,960 --> 01:53:08,760
I those shorts that I wear all the time have have zipper pockets. Maybe it's like an angle thing or something

1192
01:53:08,760 --> 01:53:15,240
So it's the material. It's the positioning. It's the it's it was everything. Okay. It was it was very difficult. Um

1193
01:53:16,120 --> 01:53:24,920
so anyway They're back and this time they're going to be based on the very successful very well received cargo pants block

1194
01:53:25,160 --> 01:53:33,160
Which is what like a like a like a basic pattern is called. Um, and we did a first round and, um

1195
01:53:34,760 --> 01:53:42,840
It's particularly, um noticeable on me because I have kind of wide childbearing hips, um, especially for a male

1196
01:53:43,240 --> 01:53:47,560
um And even on me, um the vps

1197
01:53:48,200 --> 01:53:55,320
Uh issue it seems to be resolved. So I I am pretty excited. Hopefully I don't know who knows some months

1198
01:53:55,400 --> 01:54:03,080
Hopefully this year. Uh, but our tech pants are going to be the same fit as the cargo pants. Um, very plumber bum resistant

1199
01:54:03,560 --> 01:54:05,960
Um, no vps on the pockets

1200
01:54:06,920 --> 01:54:14,200
um And and and more a more of a professional office look. Yeah, we're we're working on it. We're going to get there

1201
01:54:15,320 --> 01:54:18,680
Okay Yeah

1202
01:54:19,160 --> 01:54:23,240
It's not the answer I was expecting. Howdy lld Linus after watching channel superfund

1203
01:54:23,240 --> 01:54:27,640
Do you still find dbrand stickers in your house when denis was living in your new house? Yes

1204
01:54:28,840 --> 01:54:31,080
There are still stickers in my house. Yes, there are

1205
01:54:31,880 --> 01:54:34,920
Because my kids helped so they put them freaking everywhere

1206
01:54:35,640 --> 01:54:42,760
Yeah, that's a good way to do that. Yeah, there's still a light fixture That's like kind of out of the way and inconvenient to get at that has one on it. Yeah, it's really nice

1207
01:54:43,320 --> 01:54:51,960
It's really good Hey everyone, I work as an urban planner and technology's importance has been rapidly growing in our field

1208
01:54:52,440 --> 01:54:57,800
Do did you see or use any cool technology when you're selecting locations for the badminton center?

1209
01:54:58,920 --> 01:55:02,280
No, um, honestly the the location

1210
01:55:03,000 --> 01:55:06,440
considerations were Most it was mostly just

1211
01:55:06,440 --> 01:55:12,600
Okay, I actually looked this up very recently because I was trying to figure out how long I'd been trying to open

1212
01:55:12,600 --> 01:55:18,920
That thing and from from the day I started to the day we did our soft opening

1213
01:55:18,920 --> 01:55:27,720
It was somewhere between five and six years. I think And the reason it took me so long is because I needed a whole bunch of stars to align. I needed something with ample parking

1214
01:55:28,520 --> 01:55:32,120
So that basically ruled out almost any new building

1215
01:55:32,840 --> 01:55:39,160
I needed something with high ceilings So that ruled out almost anything old and anything other than a warehouse basically

1216
01:55:39,320 --> 01:55:45,800
I needed something zoned for recreational use which ruled out anything other than the city of richmond

1217
01:55:46,120 --> 01:55:49,560
the city of Langley or further east or

1218
01:55:50,120 --> 01:55:54,280
Surrey specifically has a carve out as long as it's less than 50 percent of the building

1219
01:55:54,680 --> 01:55:57,960
Which is why we're able to do it because we have two units out of the four

1220
01:55:58,280 --> 01:56:04,680
But because the electrical mechanical room is in one of our units We're actually like 49 percent of the usable floor space

1221
01:56:05,080 --> 01:56:09,240
So we're able to be an auxiliary use recreational use business there

1222
01:56:11,560 --> 01:56:15,880
I needed it to be somewhat accessible to the badminton community

1223
01:56:16,600 --> 01:56:22,440
So it's a very popular sport in some parts of the world and not a very popular sport in other parts of the world

1224
01:56:22,760 --> 01:56:27,720
So generally speaking like your typical, you know white boy doesn't really play badminton

1225
01:56:28,600 --> 01:56:35,560
But in southeast asia in india in china and taiwan badminton is

1226
01:56:36,440 --> 01:56:43,480
super popular And so I wanted to be close to you know where there's a high density of

1227
01:56:44,040 --> 01:56:51,160
of like A high population density of people who have come from those areas because they're far more likely to to play badminton

1228
01:56:52,040 --> 01:57:01,080
Yeah, it basically just came down to all of that I didn't have a chance to use any technology because it took me like four and a half years to find something that would work

1229
01:57:01,720 --> 01:57:05,960
at all I'm I'm dude. I'm I'm stoked on how it's turned out though

1230
01:57:06,920 --> 01:57:11,720
We had our we had our launch a little while ago of our memberships and stuff and

1231
01:57:12,200 --> 01:57:16,680
It's dude. It's going great. People are freaking loving it

1232
01:57:17,880 --> 01:57:20,440
Like freaking loving it

1233
01:57:24,600 --> 01:57:26,600
Yeah

1234
01:57:27,960 --> 01:57:33,480
Loving it Yeah, it's been really it's been really great. Someone's got a, um

1235
01:57:34,360 --> 01:57:38,120
Assistant. Yeah, yeah, my watch was talking to me. Oh not even talking to you siri

1236
01:57:40,440 --> 01:57:47,480
Rude to interrupt Hi Linus, I notice that you have a really deliberate

1237
01:57:48,040 --> 01:57:51,740
Diction especially when similar sounding are in sequence

1238
01:57:51,740 --> 01:57:55,500
Is this something you have always done or practiced and intentional skill?

1239
01:57:56,340 --> 01:57:59,140
It's from just watching our videos back and

1240
01:57:59,940 --> 01:58:03,820
trying to make them intelligible, especially knowing that people now

1241
01:58:04,420 --> 01:58:08,220
typically it seems watch videos at anywhere from one and a half X to two X.

1242
01:58:08,420 --> 01:58:13,940
So if I mumble my words or I slur them together then what I've noticed is that the

1243
01:58:14,760 --> 01:58:20,340
comprehendibility of what I'm saying goes way down if there aren't clear breaks between my words.

1244
01:58:20,460 --> 01:58:23,860
It's also a habit that doesn't come naturally to me,

1245
01:58:23,860 --> 01:58:28,300
but that I have tried to adopt in order to make me a little bit easier to edit.

1246
01:58:29,180 --> 01:58:31,660
If you have your words go together like this,

1247
01:58:32,340 --> 01:58:35,980
then you can't really pick up mid sentence and do a retake.

1248
01:58:36,260 --> 01:58:39,860
And which is so convenient sometimes because you might have done like a killer job

1249
01:58:39,860 --> 01:58:47,220
with the beginning of what you're saying, but then screw up something really small and you really want that back. Yeah. And if you could keep it somehow, that would be nice.

1250
01:58:48,140 --> 01:58:54,420
Noice. Hey, sorry. You see our Buffalo says you said before the wisdom tooth surgery used to have a lisp too.

1251
01:58:54,420 --> 01:59:00,140
Yeah, I had a pretty pronounced lisp before I got my dental appliances and they reshaped my palate

1252
01:59:00,540 --> 01:59:02,540
and it's kind of been coming back.

1253
01:59:05,900 --> 01:59:12,660
Anyway. Hey, LLD, if you could travel back in time to the 20th century and bring LTT with you,

1254
01:59:12,940 --> 01:59:16,500
what technology would you love to cover or revisit the birth of?

1255
01:59:18,220 --> 01:59:24,420
Oh, I think like long distance communications would be something that I'd be super, super into the wire.

1256
01:59:24,460 --> 01:59:30,380
Yeah. Yeah. And yeah, like switchboard so much.

1257
01:59:30,380 --> 01:59:33,380
Dude, switchboard. You ever seen a switchboard? They're crazy. Freaking wild.

1258
01:59:33,380 --> 01:59:36,660
Absolutely wild. Super cool. Early telecom stuff would have been insane.

1259
01:59:36,660 --> 01:59:43,140
Yeah. Honestly, any early computer things were just wild.

1260
01:59:43,340 --> 01:59:47,700
Yeah, you should go. You should go when you guys are done this watching WAN Show.

1261
01:59:47,900 --> 01:59:49,820
Like imagine, imagine the content.

1262
01:59:51,260 --> 01:59:55,340
I don't know. We're not making videos at that point, but whatever content you're making in that era,

1263
01:59:55,580 --> 02:00:00,500
imagine the content you could make on the first like three and a half inch hard drive.

1264
02:00:01,740 --> 02:00:09,420
Like mind blowing, dude. Go go watch these videos from Smarter Every Day and Linus Tech Tips.

1265
02:00:10,060 --> 02:00:12,500
This memory module.

1266
02:00:14,260 --> 02:00:17,420
Actually, I can't remember if that's the compute module or the memory module.

1267
02:00:17,420 --> 02:00:21,340
The point is the RAM was literally the hand woven.

1268
02:00:23,700 --> 02:00:26,500
So cool. Woven memory is.

1269
02:00:27,100 --> 02:00:31,980
Yeah. OK, this race. It is RAM. It is RAM. You can see it's 14 kilobytes of RAM in my hand there.

1270
02:00:32,100 --> 02:00:34,740
And that's how they programmed it, right? So cool.

1271
02:00:35,620 --> 02:00:38,140
They've wired the program bonkers.

1272
02:00:39,980 --> 02:00:43,860
Hey, DLL, I work in the trading industry as a software developer

1273
02:00:43,860 --> 02:00:47,580
and I loved the Equinix DC video.

1274
02:00:47,900 --> 02:00:52,260
Do you think x86 CPUs are going to be able to scale past 128 cores?

1275
02:00:52,540 --> 02:00:56,140
Excited for the backpack? No, no, they'll never get there.

1276
02:00:58,940 --> 02:01:02,100
Never going to get there. Not happening.

1277
02:01:02,100 --> 02:01:06,580
Yeah, OK, I was like, hold on a second. What are you talking about? I'm kidding.

1278
02:01:06,580 --> 02:01:12,820
I mean, AMD and Intel are clearly clearly still into it, adding more and more cores.

1279
02:01:14,220 --> 02:01:16,460
OK, Knight's Corner.

1280
02:01:17,820 --> 02:01:21,300
Technically x86, but they were they were pretty

1281
02:01:21,860 --> 02:01:25,300
like weak sauce compared to. Oh, yeah, but still.

1282
02:01:25,300 --> 02:01:29,660
Yeah, we're talking cores. I mean, that's that's fair enough.

1283
02:01:30,660 --> 02:01:34,700
I. Knight's Corner was 50 cores per chip.

1284
02:01:36,820 --> 02:01:40,460
When did it come like 20 years ago?

1285
02:01:40,860 --> 02:01:43,980
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, 14.

1286
02:01:44,020 --> 02:01:48,260
Yeah. Hey, it's not that far off. Alright, hit me, Dan.

1287
02:01:48,260 --> 02:01:52,660
Ignoring GPUs, the CPU uplifts this generation have been really disappointing.

1288
02:01:52,940 --> 02:01:57,300
How come we've seen 30% plus performance for ARM CPUs

1289
02:01:57,300 --> 02:02:01,740
like the new QC SD8 Elite, but not x86.

1290
02:02:01,740 --> 02:02:08,420
Not so much. That hasn't been true for x86. Well, that and Snapdragon 8 Elite got a node shrink.

1291
02:02:10,140 --> 02:02:14,900
Like TSMC's latest node is so flipping expensive.

1292
02:02:14,900 --> 02:02:17,980
Almost no one's using it. Apple's using it, Qualcomm's using it,

1293
02:02:17,980 --> 02:02:21,220
but NVIDIA didn't use it for their latest GPUs.

1294
02:02:21,220 --> 02:02:25,340
And like that's a lot of the really, really,

1295
02:02:25,580 --> 02:02:30,580
smart ideas have been done to optimize chip design.

1296
02:02:32,500 --> 02:02:37,500
So, it used to be easy or easy to get big performance gains

1297
02:02:38,780 --> 02:02:42,340
because you could just cram more transistors in because you just have a new process node

1298
02:02:42,340 --> 02:02:46,300
that allows you to shrink the freaking transistors. But when you can't do that,

1299
02:02:46,300 --> 02:02:49,940
well, you end up with NVIDIA's RTX 50 series.

1300
02:02:50,780 --> 02:02:55,780
And you can see this increasing cost

1301
02:02:57,020 --> 02:03:01,300
as we go down to more and more recent process nodes.

1302
02:03:01,300 --> 02:03:04,500
And you can see the way that companies like AMD

1303
02:03:04,500 --> 02:03:08,020
are actually optimizing their cost for their products

1304
02:03:08,020 --> 02:03:12,620
by avoiding it whenever possible. Like you look at their latest Ryzen processors.

1305
02:03:12,620 --> 02:03:17,040
They don't use the same node for their IO die

1306
02:03:17,040 --> 02:03:20,080
that they do for the CCDs for the compute dies.

1307
02:03:20,080 --> 02:03:27,200
And the reason for that is that it's so flipping expensive. It's cheaper to use a way larger die of an older node

1308
02:03:28,240 --> 02:03:33,960
than it is to just shrink the IO to using the same node as the compute dies.

1309
02:03:35,160 --> 02:03:39,960
That wasn't a thing 10 years ago. You just shrunk everything

1310
02:03:39,960 --> 02:03:45,600
because it would all kind of come out in the wash. Like, yeah, it'd be more expensive per area or whatever,

1311
02:03:45,600 --> 02:03:49,400
but you'd be able to pack so much more into the area that nothing else made any sense.

1312
02:03:51,920 --> 02:03:55,040
Yeah, so Snapdragon 8 Elite got a die shrink

1313
02:03:55,040 --> 02:03:59,920
and other CPUs have gotten small ones or not that much.

1314
02:03:59,920 --> 02:04:03,600
Also, like x86 CPUs are like so mature.

1315
02:04:03,600 --> 02:04:07,120
Honestly, I'm kind of impressed that we are still getting the performance gains

1316
02:04:07,120 --> 02:04:11,200
for on a single core chip that we are. Like they can't scale clock speed anymore.

1317
02:04:11,560 --> 02:04:16,480
I don't know, Ryzen 9000 is like pretty good, right?

1318
02:04:16,480 --> 02:04:19,840
800X3D? 9800X3D. It's a heck of a chip. It's still a beast.

1319
02:04:19,840 --> 02:04:25,720
It's a heck of a chip. It's questionable whether you need it. I mean, we demonstrated this pretty well in our video

1320
02:04:25,720 --> 02:04:29,920
that if you're not running at 1080p low, it doesn't make much of a difference.

1321
02:04:29,920 --> 02:04:33,640
And in fact, we were so convinced by that

1322
02:04:33,640 --> 02:04:38,320
that we felt, yeah, we're good to go ahead with our 50 series reviews with the 7800X3D

1323
02:04:38,320 --> 02:04:42,880
because we're benchmarking these at 1440p and up. And we just didn't see much of a difference.

1324
02:04:42,880 --> 02:04:47,280
We are planning on eventually moving that over. Yeah, I just mean we didn't like freak out

1325
02:04:47,280 --> 02:04:51,240
and panic upgrade everything without doing our due diligence.

1326
02:04:51,240 --> 02:04:54,760
Cause you guys might remember this, but we did it, we put a ton of work

1327
02:04:54,760 --> 02:04:57,760
into making sure that our parallelized test benches

1328
02:04:57,760 --> 02:05:01,340
are all going to be, are all going to give out results

1329
02:05:01,340 --> 02:05:04,960
that are very close to each other. And we needed over, I think it was over a dozen,

1330
02:05:04,960 --> 02:05:08,880
7800X3Ds in order to nail that down before your time. Yeah, I don't know.

1331
02:05:09,880 --> 02:05:11,000
It was a bunch though.

1332
02:05:13,840 --> 02:05:18,960
Do you have any recommendations on restoring the finish on the black shaft screwdrivers?

1333
02:05:18,960 --> 02:05:22,200
Nope, that's why we only did them for a limited time

1334
02:05:22,200 --> 02:05:24,080
because there's no way to do that.

1335
02:05:25,800 --> 02:05:29,200
And it was exactly these kinds of questions forever

1336
02:05:29,200 --> 02:05:35,000
that I was trying to avoid. The only reason we did it was because people demanded

1337
02:05:35,000 --> 02:05:39,920
to have them in spite of us telling everyone, look, we can't, we're canceling the black shaft

1338
02:05:39,920 --> 02:05:43,680
because we can't guarantee the durability. Some people really like it.

1339
02:05:43,680 --> 02:05:49,840
Yeah, well, this person apparently doesn't. Yep. No, there's no way to restore it.

1340
02:05:49,840 --> 02:05:53,480
Cause like you'd have to, to get it perfect, you'd want to like sandblaster or something

1341
02:05:53,480 --> 02:05:58,000
and you do not want to sandblast that screwdriver. Something's going to end up in the ratchet mechanism.

1342
02:05:58,000 --> 02:06:03,000
You do not want to do that. Sure. Like the plug the, yeah, that's probably what I do.

1343
02:06:03,000 --> 02:06:07,120
The Diplo Mat says, I love my black shaft.

1344
02:06:08,840 --> 02:06:14,560
Very diplomatic. I think if you, if you plug the like socket end,

1345
02:06:14,560 --> 02:06:18,360
you might be able to, someone mentioned in chat. The socket end. Plasti-dip it, but yeah.

1346
02:06:18,360 --> 02:06:21,400
Oh, yeah, it wouldn't look that good.

1347
02:06:21,400 --> 02:06:25,320
No. And the, touching the knurling, like Plasti-dip is just going to come off.

1348
02:06:27,600 --> 02:06:32,120
Had to RMA a headphone four times in two years.

1349
02:06:32,120 --> 02:06:38,320
Each replacement came with a new legal warranty. This time they offer a good will instead of a warranty.

1350
02:06:38,320 --> 02:06:41,440
Should I insist on my warranty or just switch brands?

1351
02:06:41,440 --> 02:06:45,000
This is a, oh man, warranties.

1352
02:06:45,000 --> 02:06:49,240
Why do I even talk about them? Why do I get baited into this stuff?

1353
02:06:49,240 --> 02:06:55,000
Cause I curated this when I'm, maybe I should just, what do you think, Linus?

1354
02:06:56,040 --> 02:07:00,680
Oh no. I think that warranties are written in such a way

1355
02:07:00,680 --> 02:07:04,400
that they basically leave enough room for interpretation

1356
02:07:04,400 --> 02:07:08,400
that they are designed to protect the company rather than the user.

1357
02:07:08,400 --> 02:07:13,440
If you look carefully at any of them, they will have clauses in there

1358
02:07:13,440 --> 02:07:18,760
that say things like at discretion or regular wear and tear

1359
02:07:18,760 --> 02:07:23,800
that will allow them to decide whether they give you warranty service or not.

1360
02:07:23,800 --> 02:07:29,280
So with all of that said, the warranty service that you will get from a company

1361
02:07:29,280 --> 02:07:33,680
functionally comes down to their willingness to stand behind their product.

1362
02:07:33,680 --> 02:07:37,000
But you should still get a warranty. And I would, you know, in this situation,

1363
02:07:37,000 --> 02:07:41,480
I would make it very clear that you're uncomfortable without one, especially considering the failure rate

1364
02:07:41,480 --> 02:07:45,160
that you've experienced thus far. Especially because most headphones really don't fail that much.

1365
02:07:45,160 --> 02:07:49,600
And then if they don't appease you,

1366
02:07:49,600 --> 02:07:54,320
if they don't satisfy you, then yeah, you should switch brands

1367
02:07:54,320 --> 02:07:58,620
because at the end of the day, whatever's written down on the warranty terms

1368
02:07:58,620 --> 02:08:01,660
or whatever is what it is,

1369
02:08:02,660 --> 02:08:05,940
but it changes absolutely nothing about your experience.

1370
02:08:05,940 --> 02:08:10,180
And that's what matters. Their reputation matters.

1371
02:08:10,180 --> 02:08:14,220
Your experience matters. Are they gonna try and weasel out of it?

1372
02:08:14,220 --> 02:08:18,820
That's what matters. And honestly, after something failed that many times,

1373
02:08:18,820 --> 02:08:20,820
I would just be not that impressed anyway.

1374
02:08:22,340 --> 02:08:25,980
Hello, Lan, Lan and Dan. Question for Luke.

1375
02:08:25,980 --> 02:08:30,140
I am a media student and I have pretty much been relying on AI

1376
02:08:30,140 --> 02:08:35,940
for my programming assignments. How do you think development will evolve in regards to AI?

1377
02:08:35,940 --> 02:08:40,340
It's gonna be weird. There's things right now that it's like,

1378
02:08:40,340 --> 02:08:44,340
I've seen a ton of examples of people using, I'm sure Dan's seen this too.

1379
02:08:44,340 --> 02:08:48,580
I've seen a ton of examples of people using the R1 model to do stuff that it's pretty good.

1380
02:08:48,580 --> 02:08:52,100
Yeah, it scores really high on the programming.

1381
02:08:52,100 --> 02:08:55,340
There's a thing Wendell was sharing with me. I wonder if I can find it.

1382
02:08:56,340 --> 02:09:01,340
Where it like, oh man, I don't know the details,

1383
02:09:02,540 --> 02:09:07,540
but it's a genuinely wild Reddit thread

1384
02:09:08,140 --> 02:09:15,380
and they shared like their prompt and it's just anyone could have prompted for this.

1385
02:09:15,780 --> 02:09:20,020
I believe you can also feed it back code as examples

1386
02:09:20,020 --> 02:09:23,660
and it'll work on them. Yeah. Your phone needs to move.

1387
02:09:23,660 --> 02:09:27,780
Yeah, sorry. Oh, is it going through? Yeah, it's pretty bad.

1388
02:09:27,780 --> 02:09:32,420
I need to figure out how to solve this. Adam Z says, the way he talks about warranty

1389
02:09:32,420 --> 02:09:35,940
does North America not have laws mandating the minimum warranty rules and duration.

1390
02:09:35,940 --> 02:09:39,140
The issue is just that it costs so much to pursue it

1391
02:09:39,140 --> 02:09:43,900
that it's very difficult to actually chase anybody on it.

1392
02:09:43,900 --> 02:09:48,700
That's the challenge. It's not that you aren't entitled to it.

1393
02:09:48,700 --> 02:09:52,260
It's just that the cost of making someone deal

1394
02:09:52,300 --> 02:09:56,060
with something is greater than what it would cost to just go buy a new one.

1395
02:09:56,060 --> 02:09:59,100
So it just usually doesn't make sense.

1396
02:09:59,100 --> 02:10:02,340
But some people push it and there are laws in the States about it and stuff. Yeah, of course.

1397
02:10:03,380 --> 02:10:06,420
Get your warranty. Yeah. Honestly, in that situation that was

1398
02:10:06,420 --> 02:10:09,780
merch messaged about, I would ask for like, maybe you should give me a longer warranty

1399
02:10:09,780 --> 02:10:11,220
because your product is sketch.

1400
02:10:13,300 --> 02:10:16,580
Optimize his Laminos. Do you want to come back to it, Luke?

1401
02:10:17,580 --> 02:10:18,580
Give me one second.

1402
02:10:23,260 --> 02:10:24,100
Ugh.

1403
02:10:26,740 --> 02:10:27,580
Can I help you?

1404
02:10:30,340 --> 02:10:33,380
Boom, there it is. He's got this. Am I good to go to your laptop?

1405
02:10:33,380 --> 02:10:37,660
Yeah. There we go. This thread is wild.

1406
02:10:37,660 --> 02:10:41,620
Diving through it is wild. If you scroll, this is a picture, obviously,

1407
02:10:41,620 --> 02:10:47,500
but if you scroll down and find, someone actually linked the actual GitHub repository.

1408
02:10:47,500 --> 02:10:50,140
And on there,

1409
02:10:51,140 --> 02:10:57,660
you can see the code that it wrote and it shows the prompts that they used.

1410
02:10:57,660 --> 02:11:01,500
Oh, what? Is this shorter? I swear, this is shorter.

1411
02:11:01,500 --> 02:11:05,300
Oh, nevermind. Here's the example of the prompt that I used.

1412
02:11:05,300 --> 02:11:06,420
You can see like,

1413
02:11:11,060 --> 02:11:14,980
your task is to convert, given C++, Arminion,

1414
02:11:16,020 --> 02:11:20,060
into this. And okay, it just goes.

1415
02:11:20,060 --> 02:11:21,980
Here's the function that you need to convert.

1416
02:11:24,180 --> 02:11:27,300
It's gonna be way too much for us to go over

1417
02:11:27,300 --> 02:11:31,140
and it's probably not gonna be interesting for the vast majority of the audience. But check out this thread.

1418
02:11:31,140 --> 02:11:34,420
If you're interested in DeepSeek R1

1419
02:11:34,420 --> 02:11:38,140
helping with developer stuff, check out this. Dan's like, yeah.

1420
02:11:38,140 --> 02:11:42,700
It's starting, Luke. You know how we were disenfranchised last year?

1421
02:11:43,860 --> 02:11:48,660
Yeah. I think we're back on the up and up. Yeah, it makes the lamba.cpp,

1422
02:11:48,660 --> 02:11:52,260
if I remember correctly. Roughly 2x speed increase.

1423
02:11:52,260 --> 02:11:55,460
A user even noticed there was something that it did

1424
02:11:55,460 --> 02:11:58,500
that was not necessarily necessary

1425
02:11:58,500 --> 02:12:02,340
and they asked R1 about it.

1426
02:12:02,340 --> 02:12:07,020
And it was like, oh yeah, you're correct. You can remove it by doing these things, blah, blah, blah, blah, like it improved beyond there.

1427
02:12:07,020 --> 02:12:10,260
So it's improving and making code more efficient

1428
02:12:12,260 --> 02:12:16,620
and then able to work with someone giving it feedback to do stuff.

1429
02:12:16,620 --> 02:12:19,380
Yeah, one of the top comments, self-improvement achieved.

1430
02:12:22,340 --> 02:12:26,460
Yeah, there's a comment here saying there's a non-zero chance that something like

1431
02:12:26,460 --> 02:12:30,140
O3 Pro is already influencing code optimizations inside OpenAI.

1432
02:12:30,140 --> 02:12:34,940
First mover advantage could be strong here as improvements compound and are magnified even further

1433
02:12:34,940 --> 02:12:37,980
by possibly implementing R1 optimizations.

1434
02:12:37,980 --> 02:12:42,660
Essentially what they're talking about here is if you have the most powerful model

1435
02:12:42,660 --> 02:12:46,140
at a certain point, you can use the most powerful model

1436
02:12:46,140 --> 02:12:49,500
to continually self-improve faster than other people can,

1437
02:12:49,500 --> 02:12:53,780
especially if you don't release the most powerful model publicly the second you make it every time.

1438
02:12:53,780 --> 02:12:57,500
This is a similar concept to like ASIC coin miners.

1439
02:12:57,500 --> 02:13:00,740
Yeah, I was about to say this is basically ant miners.

1440
02:13:00,740 --> 02:13:04,420
Yep, it's ASIC coin miners mining on their own machines

1441
02:13:04,420 --> 02:13:09,220
before they release it to the public halfway through the next development cycle

1442
02:13:09,220 --> 02:13:13,140
in order to kind of always stay on top. It's a really interesting conversation.

1443
02:13:13,140 --> 02:13:17,900
Bitmain, that's the company. And yeah, it's totally a thing.

1444
02:13:19,420 --> 02:13:23,860
All right. If you work for us and you're hearing this

1445
02:13:23,860 --> 02:13:29,460
and you're worried, don't be. We have roughly 47,000 years worth of work to do.

1446
02:13:29,460 --> 02:13:33,300
So if this accelerates you many times,

1447
02:13:33,300 --> 02:13:37,180
which I don't think we're there yet, but if it does, sweet.

1448
02:13:38,020 --> 02:13:42,260
There's more tasks, don't worry about it. It begins.

1449
02:13:42,260 --> 02:13:44,660
All right, this year's gonna be spicy.

1450
02:13:45,460 --> 02:13:48,500
Hey, Linus, I recently wrecked my car. Oh, bummer.

1451
02:13:48,500 --> 02:13:51,860
A 2003 Camry, and I'm painting a new hood for it.

1452
02:13:51,860 --> 02:13:54,860
Any problems just using a rattle can for a quick and dirty paint job?

1453
02:13:54,860 --> 02:14:00,300
Any tips you'd suggest? First of all, I do not condone graffiti.

1454
02:14:00,300 --> 02:14:01,780
You should not paint your hood.

1455
02:14:03,580 --> 02:14:08,980
Ding. Second of all, the most important thing is to clean it.

1456
02:14:08,980 --> 02:14:15,440
Just make sure that the car is really clean. So soap and water, rinse really, really well.

1457
02:14:15,440 --> 02:14:20,480
And then, yeah, realistically, if all you wanna do is prevent it from rusting,

1458
02:14:20,480 --> 02:14:24,520
just make sure you prime first or use a paint primer combination.

1459
02:14:24,520 --> 02:14:29,120
Like this is an older car. It sounds like you don't wanna put a lot of money into it,

1460
02:14:29,120 --> 02:14:32,080
so yeah, no, it'll work.

1461
02:14:33,120 --> 02:14:38,680
Make sure you coat everything, right? Cause if there's any gaps, then moisture will start

1462
02:14:38,680 --> 02:14:42,000
to rust it and once rust gets under the paint, then you have to understand the whole thing

1463
02:14:42,000 --> 02:14:45,360
and then you do the whole thing again. That's about it.

1464
02:14:45,360 --> 02:14:48,520
And someone closely familiar with people are expensive.

1465
02:14:48,520 --> 02:14:52,720
I was laid off this week. What are your thoughts on companies that struggle

1466
02:14:52,720 --> 02:14:56,960
due to the huge amount of misinformation perpetuated over and over?

1467
02:14:56,960 --> 02:14:58,960
Oh, I have lots of thoughts about that.

1468
02:15:02,000 --> 02:15:05,080
I'd like to apologize for Luke for two for two for tonight.

1469
02:15:06,360 --> 02:15:10,240
I'm not answering this one. Go for it, Luke, you're up.

1470
02:15:11,920 --> 02:15:14,720
Asia, Africa, Australia.

1471
02:15:16,360 --> 02:15:20,000
North America. What? Antarctica.

1472
02:15:20,000 --> 02:15:23,360
What? You're up. Oh.

1473
02:15:23,360 --> 02:15:27,000
You wanna ding him again? There we go, good, good, good, good, good.

1474
02:15:27,000 --> 02:15:31,800
I don't know, I mean, yeah, it's really tough. We, in a lot of ways, people have been talking about this

1475
02:15:31,800 --> 02:15:35,560
for a while, we're in like a semi-post-truth scenario

1476
02:15:35,560 --> 02:15:40,400
when everyone around basically has the same ability

1477
02:15:40,400 --> 02:15:45,120
to voice things that has a lot of benefits.

1478
02:15:45,360 --> 02:15:48,520
And is cool, but that means that every single person,

1479
02:15:49,760 --> 02:15:53,280
I'm not even talking about voting, every single person's form of communication

1480
02:15:53,280 --> 02:15:57,680
is taken at a very similar authority level,

1481
02:15:57,680 --> 02:16:02,680
which is kind of questionable in a few different ways.

1482
02:16:02,720 --> 02:16:06,720
And one person could create a huge range of accounts

1483
02:16:06,720 --> 02:16:11,120
or run a LLM-backed bought farm

1484
02:16:11,120 --> 02:16:15,840
to communicate various things that they want. We see this from nation states, don't kid yourself,

1485
02:16:15,840 --> 02:16:21,200
it's also happening on a personal level. A crafty high school kid with a laptop could figure it out.

1486
02:16:21,200 --> 02:16:25,760
This is not highly sophisticated at this point.

1487
02:16:25,760 --> 02:16:31,280
Yeah, like it's, this is a thing and it's happening. You go around, it's public knowledge,

1488
02:16:31,280 --> 02:16:35,040
I'm not exactly a fan of Twitter or X and in any of its iterations,

1489
02:16:35,040 --> 02:16:37,440
it has nothing to do with its current ownership.

1490
02:16:39,040 --> 02:16:42,440
You go around it lately though, it's a ghost town, dude.

1491
02:16:42,440 --> 02:16:46,280
Like I will look at a tweet that has a lot

1492
02:16:46,280 --> 02:16:49,520
or whatever they're called now, that has a lot of interactions on it.

1493
02:16:49,520 --> 02:16:53,480
And you look at the, like it has all the likes, retweets, comments, et cetera.

1494
02:16:53,480 --> 02:16:57,280
I have seen a couple where I like, actually was just stunned for a while

1495
02:16:57,280 --> 02:17:01,440
and then like shared it with someone else and was like, look at this. Cause there's like 40 responses

1496
02:17:01,440 --> 02:17:04,280
and I pretty much guarantee none of them are real.

1497
02:17:05,760 --> 02:17:09,240
Wow, like the whole, what is it called again?

1498
02:17:09,240 --> 02:17:12,640
Like a dead internet theory or whatever. Dead internet, yeah.

1499
02:17:12,640 --> 02:17:16,960
Yeah, like it's obviously not true. There's an incredible amount of people that are chronically online,

1500
02:17:16,960 --> 02:17:21,400
but there is also just a mind blowing amount

1501
02:17:21,400 --> 02:17:26,040
of fake content on the internet these days. Fake people, fake comments, fake replies,

1502
02:17:26,040 --> 02:17:30,960
fake content, the whole thing. Big problem is, I actually mentioned this on the pre-show,

1503
02:17:30,960 --> 02:17:35,960
the human capacity or now augmented

1504
02:17:36,040 --> 02:17:40,560
by the machine capacity for imagination

1505
02:17:40,560 --> 02:17:44,320
is much, much, much greater

1506
02:17:44,320 --> 02:17:49,320
than responsible, informed, diligent people's capacity

1507
02:17:49,960 --> 02:17:54,080
for finding, formulating,

1508
02:17:54,080 --> 02:17:57,680
and presenting arguments against bullshit.

1509
02:17:58,800 --> 02:18:03,680
So it feels like a hopeless losing battle.

1510
02:18:03,680 --> 02:18:04,520
Yeah.

1511
02:18:09,800 --> 02:18:15,040
Linus, the other week, you mentioned playing Lords of the Realm 2,

1512
02:18:15,040 --> 02:18:18,600
one of my favorite games from childhood. Have you heard of the new game, Manor Lords?

1513
02:18:18,600 --> 02:18:21,640
I have. I feel it's a spiritual successor to that game.

1514
02:18:21,640 --> 02:18:25,640
I haven't played it yet, but I was, Lord of the Realms just like popped up

1515
02:18:25,640 --> 02:18:31,680
on like cheap games on Steam and I was like, hey, and it has made me want to try Manor Lords even more.

1516
02:18:31,680 --> 02:18:36,600
Is Manor Lords still in early access though? Yes, I was part of the first people to grab it

1517
02:18:36,600 --> 02:18:41,560
as it came out. Yeah, I will, I will, but I haven't yet.

1518
02:18:43,640 --> 02:18:47,360
Very good. Is it good? Do you like it? I liked it.

1519
02:18:47,360 --> 02:18:50,680
Did you play Lords of the Realm 2? I did not. Oh, okay. I think I should.

1520
02:18:50,680 --> 02:18:55,200
It's surprise, it's not very deep, but it is surprisingly still really fun.

1521
02:18:55,200 --> 02:18:58,720
You gotta remember that it is still in early access, so it will change over time.

1522
02:18:58,720 --> 02:19:02,080
Yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, honestly. I'm talking to the audience.

1523
02:19:02,080 --> 02:19:07,120
Oh, sure. A lot of people think that early access games are done.

1524
02:19:07,120 --> 02:19:11,520
Oh yeah, they're not. I've been enjoying the heck out of an early access game,

1525
02:19:11,520 --> 02:19:16,200
tape to tape. Dude, it's so good.

1526
02:19:16,200 --> 02:19:19,200
Yeah, it's, it definitely has problems.

1527
02:19:19,200 --> 02:19:22,960
Like right now, breakaways are kind of broken and stuff like that.

1528
02:19:22,960 --> 02:19:27,480
Like it's always got new problems because they're constantly working on it, but it is a ton of fun.

1529
02:19:27,480 --> 02:19:33,640
And I actually have really been enjoying what we did for the last run that we did together,

1530
02:19:33,640 --> 02:19:37,960
where instead of- That's gotten a lot better. Instead of choosing our path

1531
02:19:37,960 --> 02:19:42,960
at some of the like roguelite roster building forks,

1532
02:19:43,800 --> 02:19:47,680
we just flip a coin and then we just play with whatever we get.

1533
02:19:47,680 --> 02:19:51,160
I've done a couple of solo runs recently. The events are a lot more viable now.

1534
02:19:51,160 --> 02:19:54,960
Where I did the same thing

1535
02:19:54,960 --> 02:19:58,240
and dude, the one I did last night was just f***ed

1536
02:19:58,240 --> 02:20:03,040
because I did it for everything, including choosing my superstar, choosing my initial ability.

1537
02:20:03,040 --> 02:20:06,760
So I just had garbage for everything. It was unusable.

1538
02:20:08,320 --> 02:20:13,480
Yeah, that sounds pretty bad. That sounds, I mean, it would be fun to challenge yourself

1539
02:20:13,480 --> 02:20:19,000
to try to win that way, but wow, that's a- I got crushed by the Knights.

1540
02:20:19,000 --> 02:20:24,160
Oh yeah. Just f***ed. I mean, that's a wall already. They rolled over me, it was embarrassing.

1541
02:20:24,160 --> 02:20:29,080
While I say that's a wall already, I really hope they don't nerf the princesses and the knights.

1542
02:20:29,080 --> 02:20:33,640
Yeah, the princesses and the knights are pretty steadily.

1543
02:20:33,640 --> 02:20:38,400
But it is like, I'm happy that that wall is there and not like immediately before the final boss

1544
02:20:38,400 --> 02:20:43,000
or something because the final boss being a wall and the princesses and the knights being a wall

1545
02:20:43,000 --> 02:20:46,000
is like, okay, this is fair. This seems okay.

1546
02:20:46,000 --> 02:20:50,800
Yeah, it's super, super, super fun. I really, really hope that someday they make it

1547
02:20:50,800 --> 02:20:54,880
so that you can properly just like both own copies of the game and play multiplayer.

1548
02:20:55,840 --> 02:20:59,680
But as of right now and theoretically forever,

1549
02:20:59,680 --> 02:21:03,280
you can play with Steam Remote Play. So only one person in your friend group needs to buy the game

1550
02:21:03,280 --> 02:21:06,840
and then everyone else can Steam Remote Play, which is wild. But if you really love it, you should just all buy it.

1551
02:21:06,840 --> 02:21:10,640
Yeah, I'm just saying. Just saying. Just saying. Just saying.

1552
02:21:10,640 --> 02:21:14,000
Just saying. Just saying. Because there's always that like, well, I want to play this new game,

1553
02:21:14,000 --> 02:21:17,320
but now I have to convince my entire friend group. Yeah. And now it's like, no.

1554
02:21:17,320 --> 02:21:19,640
No, you totally don't have to. Yeah.

1555
02:21:21,640 --> 02:21:24,960
I-L-L-D, what is the technology or piece of equipment

1556
02:21:25,000 --> 02:21:28,600
that you loved the idea of, but never reached its potential or was abandoned

1557
02:21:28,600 --> 02:21:31,400
because it didn't catch on? Nia.

1558
02:21:32,400 --> 02:21:35,400
O-C-Z Nia. Really? Yeah, dude.

1559
02:21:35,400 --> 02:21:38,400
Oh, come on. Yeah, dude. Come on.

1560
02:21:38,400 --> 02:21:41,720
Look at this guy. Look at this dude.

1561
02:21:41,720 --> 02:21:45,160
Look at this dude. I know, what a loser. Look at that thing on his head.

1562
02:21:45,160 --> 02:21:49,320
He's going nowhere in life. O-C-Z Nia.

1563
02:21:49,320 --> 02:21:53,080
Neural impulse actuator plus brain mouse demonstration,

1564
02:21:53,080 --> 02:21:56,640
Pong Linus tectaphs. What a title.

1565
02:21:56,640 --> 02:22:00,840
Yeah, well, what a title. It was a different time for SEO.

1566
02:22:00,840 --> 02:22:04,200
Oh, I used to have that keyboard. That keyboard was sick. That keyboard was pretty sick.

1567
02:22:04,200 --> 02:22:07,480
Its predecessor was better, in my opinion. Original G-15 was better.

1568
02:22:07,480 --> 02:22:12,520
Yeah. That's the Gen 2. But yeah, look, he's playing the game with his brain.

1569
02:22:12,520 --> 02:22:17,760
With his brain. It doesn't look like he's using the facial muscle trick either.

1570
02:22:17,760 --> 02:22:21,600
So I think he was actually playing with his brain. But yeah, it was cool.

1571
02:22:21,760 --> 02:22:24,840
I played Call of Duty match with it and ended up positive.

1572
02:22:24,840 --> 02:22:31,200
I used it for shooting and reloading. I looked and moved with my mouse and my keyboard,

1573
02:22:31,200 --> 02:22:33,800
but I used it for shooting and reloading. That was tough.

1574
02:22:35,320 --> 02:22:39,160
I have always been a fan of alternative input methods.

1575
02:22:39,160 --> 02:22:43,840
I've always thought they're cool. And this is one of them, you know?

1576
02:22:45,080 --> 02:22:48,440
What is this? 14 years ago. Brain control. 2010.

1577
02:22:48,440 --> 02:22:51,960
Let's go. I bought this from NCIX.

1578
02:22:51,960 --> 02:22:55,480
I had no idea you had a video on it. Oh, really? Yeah.

1579
02:22:55,480 --> 02:22:58,840
I don't think I knew you made videos at that point. I don't think I'd been making videos

1580
02:22:58,840 --> 02:23:06,280
for very long at that point. That's true. Yeah, you can see it like try to map out your brainwaves

1581
02:23:06,280 --> 02:23:11,880
and then it uses thresholds of these different brainwave activations to create inputs.

1582
02:23:11,880 --> 02:23:15,680
So when I was messing with this back in the day, I was living with my parents' house

1583
02:23:15,680 --> 02:23:21,120
because I was in high school, I think. Yeah. And my parents or my brother or someone

1584
02:23:21,120 --> 02:23:24,120
would come up to the computer desk and talk to me.

1585
02:23:24,120 --> 02:23:27,120
And I'd be trying to play some game or something and I'd look and go to talk to them

1586
02:23:27,120 --> 02:23:31,760
and just everything starts happening because my face is moving

1587
02:23:31,760 --> 02:23:36,520
and it used facial muscles as some of the inputs. And then you're also thinking about your response

1588
02:23:36,520 --> 02:23:40,280
and all this kind of stuff. If you're not focused on the game anymore, so just everything would go nuts.

1589
02:23:42,280 --> 02:23:46,000
It was kind of funny because I would like beg people not to talk to me while I was playing with it

1590
02:23:46,720 --> 02:23:49,280
because everything just gets screwed up.

1591
02:23:51,280 --> 02:23:54,720
Oh yeah, anyways, like proper advancements

1592
02:23:54,720 --> 02:23:57,560
in this technology I think would have been really cool, but anyways.

1593
02:23:59,680 --> 02:24:04,320
Anything from you? Oh, I thought you did a really great job.

1594
02:24:04,320 --> 02:24:09,040
Okay, all right. I have nothing to add. Sounds good. What's up my fellow whaners?

1595
02:24:09,040 --> 02:24:13,520
Blindness, given the option, would you ever replace any of your limbs or organs

1596
02:24:13,520 --> 02:24:16,600
and become a cyborg? I've been legally blind since I was 11

1597
02:24:16,600 --> 02:24:19,200
and have always dreamt of robo eyes.

1598
02:24:21,440 --> 02:24:26,440
Yes, absolutely, but I don't think I would want to

1599
02:24:26,640 --> 02:24:30,600
and still until it was like becoming a problem. I never asked for this.

1600
02:24:30,600 --> 02:24:36,560
Yeah, I think I'm on the same page because like I've known from very young

1601
02:24:36,560 --> 02:24:39,560
that my knees are gonna go probably pretty relatively young.

1602
02:24:39,560 --> 02:24:44,080
So that's one of the reasons that I avoid high impact sports altogether.

1603
02:24:44,080 --> 02:24:47,660
I don't run. So if I'm gonna go out for a jog,

1604
02:24:47,660 --> 02:24:51,100
I've put on rollerblades, like I do not jog.

1605
02:24:52,600 --> 02:24:55,720
I'll bike, I'll rollerblade, I will elliptical,

1606
02:24:55,720 --> 02:24:59,280
I will, I'll go on the stairs,

1607
02:24:59,280 --> 02:25:03,080
stair master, no problem, but I'm not jogging, I'm not running.

1608
02:25:03,080 --> 02:25:06,840
I can imagine some bad winter movements aren't awesome for that.

1609
02:25:06,840 --> 02:25:10,000
I won't play at facilities. I won't play at facilities

1610
02:25:10,000 --> 02:25:13,240
that don't have a Christian floor.

1611
02:25:13,240 --> 02:25:16,840
And I don't even mean just like a vinyl cushion or like a foam or whatever.

1612
02:25:16,840 --> 02:25:21,120
I mean like a proper sprung, like dance floor or like a sprung floor,

1613
02:25:22,200 --> 02:25:25,760
which makes a huge difference in terms of the impact.

1614
02:25:25,760 --> 02:25:30,560
And so I work to keep my knees strong, but I've known from very young

1615
02:25:30,560 --> 02:25:35,120
that it runs thick in my family that my knees are probably gonna fall apart in my 40s.

1616
02:25:35,120 --> 02:25:39,840
So if I had the opportunity to put like way better ones in,

1617
02:25:39,840 --> 02:25:46,200
I wouldn't hesitate for a second, I'd go for it. If they were just like my original ones, but like better.

1618
02:25:46,200 --> 02:25:49,280
And if I could do the same thing for things like vision,

1619
02:25:49,280 --> 02:25:51,720
as long as the risk is low,

1620
02:25:52,600 --> 02:25:56,600
I'd be pretty stoked for it. I don't think I'd want to just jump on it,

1621
02:25:56,600 --> 02:26:00,520
but like similarly there's, you know, I've got some problemos.

1622
02:26:00,520 --> 02:26:06,280
And if they crossed a line, if I'm no longer able to do certain things or whatever,

1623
02:26:06,280 --> 02:26:10,640
yeah, sure, yeah, of course. From the moment I understood the weakness of my flesh,

1624
02:26:10,640 --> 02:26:14,360
it disgusted me. What's that a quote from?

1625
02:26:14,360 --> 02:26:19,480
40K. Okay. And there's, so yeah, for sure,

1626
02:26:19,480 --> 02:26:23,120
but there's also variants of it from like everything. Oh, absolutely, yeah.

1627
02:26:23,120 --> 02:26:29,040
I wanted to go into biomedical engineering for a long time to kind of perpetuate the cybernetic things.

1628
02:26:30,040 --> 02:26:35,100
Okay, well, I didn't know it was like quite that far. Genesis8925 asks, would you go full Borg?

1629
02:26:36,120 --> 02:26:39,560
I go full Borg. Yeah, I wouldn't, here's my issue though,

1630
02:26:39,560 --> 02:26:44,920
is I would only want to live forever with everyone that I liked would also live forever.

1631
02:26:44,920 --> 02:26:48,360
And they wouldn't, they wouldn't do that. They'd just be like, no.

1632
02:26:48,360 --> 02:26:51,840
So what I'm going to live forever by myself, that's lame.

1633
02:26:51,840 --> 02:26:55,200
I'd go for it. Do you see a future where they become extremely common

1634
02:26:55,200 --> 02:27:00,240
and then we start offering LTD brand, like replacement parts on LTD store?

1635
02:27:00,240 --> 02:27:05,560
Like you get LTD store brand knees? No. Like the open source and maker community gets behind it?

1636
02:27:05,560 --> 02:27:09,600
I got my new ARM and it's pink and orange and it's so cute.

1637
02:27:09,600 --> 02:27:12,920
Lambo edition. Lambo edition, four arms, baby.

1638
02:27:12,920 --> 02:27:18,240
Maybe the cyberpunk future is not that bad if open source and right to repair people

1639
02:27:18,240 --> 02:27:23,240
are like still. Right to repair your body. That's one of the reasons why I wanted to get into it so bad.

1640
02:27:23,240 --> 02:27:26,960
I'm going to own that. We don't even do food stuffs on our store.

1641
02:27:26,960 --> 02:27:30,680
We don't even sell anything people ingest because of the liability concerns.

1642
02:27:30,680 --> 02:27:33,920
You wouldn't do a leg? We're not going to do body parts. Why not?

1643
02:27:33,920 --> 02:27:38,200
We're not going to do body parts. What do you mean? You don't want people to have trust me pro-warranties

1644
02:27:38,200 --> 02:27:41,960
on their other literal legs? Well, what I literally don't want to do

1645
02:27:41,960 --> 02:27:45,680
is be responsible for someone's broken legs.

1646
02:27:45,680 --> 02:27:50,160
Yeah, but you just replace them. They can just get new ones. You don't have to worry about your legs breaking

1647
02:27:50,160 --> 02:27:56,480
because you just got new ones. That's the whole point of it. My son's legs malfunctioned and he ran off a cliff.

1648
02:27:56,480 --> 02:28:00,440
I would like to warranty my son, please.

1649
02:28:00,440 --> 02:28:05,000
It's going to cost $10,000 for his new back that has to come out of your...

1650
02:28:05,000 --> 02:28:08,200
Luckily, it's the cyberpunk future so you can realistically just replace everything.

1651
02:28:08,200 --> 02:28:13,760
So it's fine. I had to print a new kid. This sucks. I had to print a new kid.

1652
02:28:13,760 --> 02:28:14,600
You owe me $45.

1653
02:28:18,360 --> 02:28:21,320
I'm going to leave you a negative review on our Google Mind Palace.

1654
02:28:26,120 --> 02:28:28,960
Okay, okay. Up next.

1655
02:28:30,240 --> 02:28:36,840
I dream of the future a lot, if you can tell. Hi, Optilinus Prime, Bumblebee Luke and Megatron Dan

1656
02:28:36,840 --> 02:28:40,560
as a product company. I'm interested in your insight on what I assume

1657
02:28:40,560 --> 02:28:43,920
are insane logistics for companies with major annual releases.

1658
02:28:43,920 --> 02:28:48,880
For example, phones or games. I would hate to be responsible for making sure

1659
02:28:48,880 --> 02:28:52,120
that there are enough iPhones on September, the whatever it is.

1660
02:28:52,120 --> 02:28:55,760
Yeah. Like honestly, I had someone... Sounds not that hard if you're NVIDIA.

1661
02:28:55,760 --> 02:28:58,600
I think it was on Reddit. Someone was asking me,

1662
02:29:00,240 --> 02:29:05,080
hey, what's up with you guys shipping your backpacks in waves after you launch?

1663
02:29:05,080 --> 02:29:08,280
And I'm like, I am not Apple.

1664
02:29:09,240 --> 02:29:12,600
This may surprise our regular viewers,

1665
02:29:12,600 --> 02:29:16,480
but in the grand scheme of things, we are a pretty small company.

1666
02:29:18,200 --> 02:29:23,160
So when we launch a new product that we conceivably could sell tens of thousands

1667
02:29:23,160 --> 02:29:27,080
of units of, it is not manageable for our cash flow

1668
02:29:27,080 --> 02:29:32,080
to just make all of it that we could possibly ever need,

1669
02:29:32,080 --> 02:29:36,280
distribute it globally, and then build up

1670
02:29:36,280 --> 02:29:40,600
with our production capacity, build up stock levels such that on launch day,

1671
02:29:40,600 --> 02:29:44,040
everyone who could possibly want one can buy one and get it immediately.

1672
02:29:44,040 --> 02:29:50,640
It's just not viable. And so you look at some of the world's most successful

1673
02:29:50,640 --> 02:29:54,760
companies and what they actually do really well is like, is Apple a technology company?

1674
02:29:54,760 --> 02:29:59,600
Yeah, but they could be the greatest technology company

1675
02:29:59,600 --> 02:30:02,880
in the world and they wouldn't be worth trillions of dollars.

1676
02:30:02,880 --> 02:30:07,160
What they are is a logistics and operations company.

1677
02:30:07,160 --> 02:30:14,520
The fact that they execute what they do with the kind of precision that they do is honestly

1678
02:30:15,040 --> 02:30:20,200
as impressive as what they do technologically, if not more so sometimes.

1679
02:30:20,200 --> 02:30:24,480
Some of the tech stuff they do is really cool. And you see in the tandem OLED iPad, whoa.

1680
02:30:24,480 --> 02:30:29,480
But, but man, the logistics of it is incredible, incredible.

1681
02:30:31,360 --> 02:30:35,200
Like just go to some other country and like walk into an Apple store.

1682
02:30:35,200 --> 02:30:39,560
Be like, think about how hard it is to train any one person

1683
02:30:39,560 --> 02:30:44,920
to do anything. Go to some other country and just be walking

1684
02:30:44,920 --> 02:30:50,440
to an Apple store and you're like, oh, this is an Apple store, but en franÃ§ais.

1685
02:30:51,720 --> 02:30:57,720
How did they, how did they do that? That's incredible. I think it's crazy that like you can get a can of Coke,

1686
02:30:57,720 --> 02:31:01,160
like almost quite literally anywhere in the world. Yeah.

1687
02:31:01,160 --> 02:31:05,600
Like that's actually wild. Like, yeah, it's, it's worthless sugar water.

1688
02:31:06,720 --> 02:31:11,360
So are they a beverage company? No, they have agreements with people to keep it cold.

1689
02:31:11,360 --> 02:31:14,720
They're a sales and logistics company and it's incredible.

1690
02:31:16,800 --> 02:31:22,760
Yeah. Last one I got for you today. Hey, Dan's and those on when Linus,

1691
02:31:22,760 --> 02:31:27,320
I have an ongoing bet that the GTA six will release prior to your painting

1692
02:31:27,320 --> 02:31:29,240
and finishing the bike impossible.

1693
02:31:30,800 --> 02:31:34,200
I will do it. Have you made any progress?

1694
02:31:34,200 --> 02:31:36,400
Yes. I don't have any pictures.

1695
02:31:37,640 --> 02:31:39,400
Oh, hold on. Where's my phone?

1696
02:31:42,920 --> 02:31:46,600
I got it. There's a phone in your back pocket.

1697
02:31:46,600 --> 02:31:51,280
There's a what now? Oh, that's, it doesn't have a sim in it right now.

1698
02:31:53,240 --> 02:31:57,360
My web, let's find out if she's at home. Ben Mitchell said in some parts of Mexico,

1699
02:31:57,360 --> 02:32:00,680
you can only buy Coke, not water, and it's also cheaper.

1700
02:32:01,960 --> 02:32:05,880
I actually knew that. That's absurd. I think I've talked before about how I just wanted to work

1701
02:32:05,880 --> 02:32:07,640
for McDonald's. Hi, lady, are you at home?

1702
02:32:09,400 --> 02:32:12,600
Can I ask you a favor? Very easy.

1703
02:32:16,320 --> 02:32:19,480
Do you mind teaming Dan a couple pictures

1704
02:32:19,480 --> 02:32:21,720
of the bike progress?

1705
02:32:24,680 --> 02:32:27,800
Thanks, lady. Okay, bye.

1706
02:32:28,800 --> 02:32:32,720
Okay, Yvonne is going to team Dan some pictures of bike progress.

1707
02:32:33,600 --> 02:32:38,040
So I will, I will show you guys, I will show you real progress.

1708
02:32:38,040 --> 02:32:42,880
Nice. You will probably not be very impressed because it really does not look like much right now,

1709
02:32:42,880 --> 02:32:45,920
but it's, it's something, it's something.

1710
02:32:50,000 --> 02:32:55,960
Oh, there's a new one. Hello, Lycus, Loonisism, and Daniel.

1711
02:32:55,960 --> 02:33:01,200
Linus, as someone with experience, can you give any advice on how one might perform

1712
02:33:01,200 --> 02:33:04,600
a hostile takeover of the company they work for? Asking for a friend.

1713
02:33:05,600 --> 02:33:10,720
I never took over NCIX. The only thing that I did was I bought

1714
02:33:10,720 --> 02:33:14,160
the intellectual property slash assets

1715
02:33:14,160 --> 02:33:19,200
that were the Linus Tech Tips YouTube channel and linustechtips.com.

1716
02:33:19,840 --> 02:33:23,120
Which at the time was like a barely active blog.

1717
02:33:23,120 --> 02:33:28,120
And then later with some help became the LTT forum.

1718
02:33:29,840 --> 02:33:33,320
So it really, it was me negotiating the purchase

1719
02:33:33,320 --> 02:33:37,840
of an asset, not really orchestrating

1720
02:33:37,840 --> 02:33:45,360
any kind of like company takeover. Now I would love to collect what remains

1721
02:33:45,480 --> 02:33:49,480
of the skeleton of NCIX and, and breathe new life into it.

1722
02:33:49,480 --> 02:33:53,480
That would actually, that would actually be super cool.

1723
02:33:53,480 --> 02:34:00,320
I'd be pretty sick. I think it would be super cool. But up until now, we have not been able to reach

1724
02:34:00,320 --> 02:34:04,320
an agreement that has been mutually agreed upon

1725
02:34:04,320 --> 02:34:07,960
by all parties who would need to be involved in it. So.

1726
02:34:07,960 --> 02:34:13,080
It's interesting because over time, it's value rapidly approaches itself.

1727
02:34:14,080 --> 02:34:16,000
Rapidly approaches zero.

1728
02:34:17,400 --> 02:34:21,840
Yeah. What value would it have to literally anyone other than you right now?

1729
02:34:21,840 --> 02:34:26,840
Very little. I can't think of literally anything.

1730
02:34:26,840 --> 02:34:32,040
Like it's a four letter.com, but it's like a gobbledygook four letter.com like it is.

1731
02:34:32,040 --> 02:34:36,280
Nothing. Also people don't care anymore. Oh dude, the NCIX brand is.

1732
02:34:36,280 --> 02:34:39,920
No, I don't mean the brand. Oh. I don't think people care about four letter domains anymore.

1733
02:34:39,920 --> 02:34:44,080
Oh, interesting. People are typing in domains. People are typing in domains. Yeah. Oh.

1734
02:34:44,080 --> 02:34:47,240
Yeah, you're probably right. It's apps and searches. It's not.

1735
02:34:47,240 --> 02:34:50,480
Yeah. No one cares anymore. I mean, they still cost money.

1736
02:34:50,480 --> 02:34:53,920
Of course. But it's not like it used to be. It used to be prestigious.

1737
02:34:53,920 --> 02:34:57,520
You could camp a domain and literally the value

1738
02:34:57,520 --> 02:35:01,240
of it would be parabolic over time. Yeah.

1739
02:35:01,240 --> 02:35:04,640
Got your picks. X.com though. Yeah. And no one cares.

1740
02:35:04,640 --> 02:35:09,640
Yeah. Which is my point. My silent protest every time I go to that site

1741
02:35:09,640 --> 02:35:14,400
is I type twitter.com. Yeah, sure. Because it's actually not like slower.

1742
02:35:14,400 --> 02:35:18,920
Also, your browser's just going to autocomplete. Yeah. Like I really, the short domain thing,

1743
02:35:18,920 --> 02:35:22,440
like it's still cool and like some old heads will see it

1744
02:35:22,440 --> 02:35:25,560
and be like, oh, sweet. But like almost no one cares. And me says.

1745
02:35:25,560 --> 02:35:30,400
And me in float plain chat says, years ago, I saw people type Facebook login

1746
02:35:30,400 --> 02:35:33,720
instead of Facebook.com into it. Yeah. Yeah.

1747
02:35:33,720 --> 02:35:39,360
Yeah. It doesn't matter anymore. So like your domain is unimportant and doesn't matter now.

1748
02:35:39,360 --> 02:35:42,520
Your brand name got trashed on the way out anyways

1749
02:35:42,520 --> 02:35:45,800
and no one cares. And it's been a long time and everyone's forgotten.

1750
02:35:45,800 --> 02:35:49,520
So like. I haven't forgotten. Yeah.

1751
02:35:49,520 --> 02:35:55,160
I would like to bring back. But again. X.com. Other than you, it doesn't have value to anyone.

1752
02:35:55,160 --> 02:35:58,640
I also don't think anyone else would really have a shot at it.

1753
02:35:58,640 --> 02:36:01,760
Do anything with it. Yeah. What would we do with it?

1754
02:36:04,120 --> 02:36:07,560
I already know, but body parts. Yeah. What would you do with it?

1755
02:36:07,560 --> 02:36:12,160
Stop. So what? Like Linus, it's the new frontier.

1756
02:36:12,160 --> 02:36:15,640
Dan, no one wants leg. Everyone's trying to get rid of leg.

1757
02:36:15,640 --> 02:36:19,280
Ah, but OK. If computer starts getting less interesting.

1758
02:36:19,280 --> 02:36:22,560
There it is. Oh. If computer start getting less interesting,

1759
02:36:22,560 --> 02:36:25,840
you could start reviewing body parts.

1760
02:36:25,840 --> 02:36:30,600
We're not going to use it for reviews. Why review a monitor when you could review a cybernetic eye?

1761
02:36:30,600 --> 02:36:35,000
Yeah, we're going to get over this cake-less thing that's happened.

1762
02:36:35,000 --> 02:36:38,400
Return Linus's cake. Cybernetic cake.

1763
02:36:38,400 --> 02:36:43,920
2024 Linus cake is this year's model is way worse.

1764
02:36:43,920 --> 02:36:48,280
More Linus, less cake. A lot less fun this year. Let's look at motorbike pictures.

1765
02:36:48,280 --> 02:36:51,800
All right, let's look at some of the pictures. Some depleted mass.

1766
02:36:51,800 --> 02:36:54,840
OK, so these are testers.

1767
02:36:54,840 --> 02:36:58,400
The finished color is going to be the one that's

1768
02:36:58,400 --> 02:37:03,160
in the bottom right. So that's the same pink that is in the top left,

1769
02:37:03,160 --> 02:37:06,240
but with the effect layer that's on the top right

1770
02:37:06,280 --> 02:37:09,320
over top of it. OK.

1771
02:37:09,320 --> 02:37:12,400
I feel like I like the top left one most, but the lighting on this is also.

1772
02:37:12,400 --> 02:37:15,800
Yes, it's suspect. It's suspect.

1773
02:37:15,800 --> 02:37:21,280
So here's some primed plastic parts, and as well as my primed wheels.

1774
02:37:21,280 --> 02:37:24,720
One or two of them needs some sanding and maybe a quick

1775
02:37:24,720 --> 02:37:29,280
reattempt at the priming, but they're pretty OK.

1776
02:37:29,280 --> 02:37:32,760
And that is the front.

1777
02:37:32,760 --> 02:37:36,440
Bloody hell. That's the fairing.

1778
02:37:36,440 --> 02:37:40,200
And that is the.

1779
02:37:40,200 --> 02:37:42,680
That's it. That's it. That's all I got. OK.

1780
02:37:45,320 --> 02:37:49,600
Jeez. And I guess I got one more merch message

1781
02:37:49,600 --> 02:37:52,920
and that that's about it. Yo, how do you guys measure input latency?

1782
02:37:52,920 --> 02:37:56,680
I streamed to my stream deck and latency is completely negligible for most games,

1783
02:37:56,680 --> 02:38:00,280
but others I think I barely notice. Can't tell if it's in my head or not.

1784
02:38:00,280 --> 02:38:07,800
Do we have an order? There's actually an overlay for depending

1785
02:38:07,800 --> 02:38:12,840
what streaming thing you're using. There should be an overlay that shows you what your latency is.

1786
02:38:12,840 --> 02:38:17,560
I can promise you it is not negligible,

1787
02:38:17,560 --> 02:38:21,400
but depending on the games you're playing, it can be way less noticeable.

1788
02:38:21,400 --> 02:38:24,960
So tape to tape, for example, everybody remote plays in,

1789
02:38:24,960 --> 02:38:28,960
and it's pretty great. So hold on a second.

1790
02:38:28,960 --> 02:38:32,160
They're talking about in-home streaming, though.

1791
02:38:32,160 --> 02:38:38,480
Yeah, but they asked, how do we measure input latency? And I thought it was interesting. There's an article in the Labs written by Oni with James

1792
02:38:38,480 --> 02:38:41,680
and Antoine doing the informative. And they did ask how we do it.

1793
02:38:41,680 --> 02:38:44,840
And this is how Labs conduct tests on mice. And if you scroll down a little bit,

1794
02:38:44,840 --> 02:38:47,960
they have the latency and sensor test section. This is a very cool article.

1795
02:38:47,960 --> 02:38:51,520
Check it out. Yeah.

1796
02:38:51,520 --> 02:38:56,720
All right. That's mostly it for the show, but there is a quick last thing.

1797
02:38:56,720 --> 02:39:03,800
I did end up watching some of Lewis's video that he uploaded shortly before the WAN Show last week.

1798
02:39:03,800 --> 02:39:07,120
I don't think I made through quite as much of it

1799
02:39:07,120 --> 02:39:10,720
as Dr. Ian Cuttrust did.

1800
02:39:10,720 --> 02:39:17,840
Yeah, he got through 20 minutes before deciding it was, quote, not worth the mental effort.

1801
02:39:17,840 --> 02:39:21,200
What I saw so far seems to be a classic bad faith,

1802
02:39:21,200 --> 02:39:25,600
assume the absolute worst load of bulls***, frankly.

1803
02:39:25,600 --> 02:39:28,680
The main premise for his medical diagnosis of me,

1804
02:39:28,680 --> 02:39:33,120
with a personality disorder, appears to be that I can never admit when I'm wrong.

1805
02:39:33,120 --> 02:39:36,560
But my first interaction with this man

1806
02:39:36,560 --> 02:39:43,000
was to admit that I was wrong in public and cordially invite him to collaborate

1807
02:39:43,000 --> 02:39:47,160
so that we could correct the record in front of 2.2 million

1808
02:39:47,160 --> 02:39:53,520
people. Literally, this is the first interaction we ever

1809
02:39:53,520 --> 02:39:56,640
have where I say, I was wrong.

1810
02:39:56,640 --> 02:39:59,720
Show me the right way to do it so that I can show my viewers.

1811
02:40:03,520 --> 02:40:08,040
There's also a bit in here about how I intentionally texted the wrong number for Steve.

1812
02:40:08,040 --> 02:40:14,200
No, of course, it wasn't intentional. You'd be in a difficult mental state, too, in that situation.

1813
02:40:14,200 --> 02:40:17,760
But, and this is going to just blow up the narrative,

1814
02:40:17,760 --> 02:40:23,920
I'm going to take that feedback and get that mistake removed, and or we'll add the context that, while yes, Steve does

1815
02:40:23,960 --> 02:40:26,960
have the number active, he primaries a different number.

1816
02:40:26,960 --> 02:40:30,840
Anyway, maybe there's an appropriate time and place to address the rest of this stuff,

1817
02:40:30,840 --> 02:40:34,520
but y'all are clearly tired of hearing about it here.

1818
02:40:34,520 --> 02:40:40,680
So we're going to see you again next week. Same bad time, same bad channel.

1819
02:40:40,680 --> 02:40:44,840
Bye. That was my cybernetic ARM.

1820
02:40:44,840 --> 02:40:48,920
I liked it. I had to run the wave function.
