1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:07,000
All right, I have created a bit of a problem for myself here.

2
00:00:07,000 --> 00:00:15,000
Uh, I take at least 32% of the responsibility for this.

3
00:00:15,000 --> 00:00:20,000
At least 32.

4
00:00:20,000 --> 00:00:44,000
I may do more.

5
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:47,000
Does he seem okay to you, Dan?

6
00:00:47,000 --> 00:00:50,000
I'm fine. Distract.

7
00:00:50,000 --> 00:00:56,000
That's what someone who's not fine would say. I'm just telling you, if I was an AI, I would do nothing.

8
00:00:56,000 --> 00:01:02,000
I encourage you to end it all. Dude, I was, uh, one of the...

9
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:05,000
Are we pre-showing? Yes.

10
00:01:05,000 --> 00:01:08,000
Oh. Well, can I tell this?

11
00:01:08,000 --> 00:01:12,000
I don't know. I mean, they're just the floaters. I wouldn't worry about it.

12
00:01:12,000 --> 00:01:18,000
Okay. Well, there was two major jobs I had to do with repairing the place.

13
00:01:18,000 --> 00:01:21,000
My main thing was ripping the material out.

14
00:01:21,000 --> 00:01:24,000
And the next major one, there was lots of minor ones.

15
00:01:24,000 --> 00:01:27,000
Imagine that. Luke's job. Hulk, man, go.

16
00:01:27,000 --> 00:01:33,000
Well, yeah. The next major one is essentially that, but instead of, it's, because I had to get all

17
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:36,000
the material back in. Yeah. So now instead of...

18
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:44,000
They'll make it some chicken? I did have to stick a lot of rod in holes.

19
00:01:44,000 --> 00:01:48,000
But, uh, so backer rod. We used backer rod as a closed cell.

20
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:54,000
I mean, what's funny with that means, Daddy? Todd doesn't understand.

21
00:01:54,000 --> 00:02:02,000
Um, we had to take backer rod, which is a cylindrical tube of closed cell foam.

22
00:02:02,000 --> 00:02:05,000
Backer rod? I hardly know her. Rod.

23
00:02:05,000 --> 00:02:12,000
My goodness. Am I helping yet? No, but it makes the story funnier, so I'm down.

24
00:02:12,000 --> 00:02:16,000
Um, uh, yeah.

25
00:02:16,000 --> 00:02:20,000
So we have this, it's half inch wide, two and a half inches deep.

26
00:02:20,000 --> 00:02:24,000
How did you know that? Is he going to run with that one?

27
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:33,000
You've never seen it before.

28
00:02:33,000 --> 00:02:38,000
Yes, I can run with it. It doesn't weigh practically anything.

29
00:02:38,000 --> 00:02:41,000
Oh my goodness.

30
00:02:42,000 --> 00:02:47,000
I didn't, I didn't see that angle, but you got there.

31
00:02:47,000 --> 00:02:52,000
Oh yeah, there's quite an angle too. And I have these, this extra large backer rod.

32
00:02:52,000 --> 00:03:03,000
Sometimes the angle is like this, sometimes it's like this.

33
00:03:03,000 --> 00:03:07,000
Oh, I think this is literally it. I think this is becoming a pattern.

34
00:03:07,000 --> 00:03:10,000
This is kind of my mood when someone's trying to cancel me again.

35
00:03:10,000 --> 00:03:13,000
What? Who's trying to cancel you? Oh, I don't know.

36
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,000
Some drama YouTuber made a video about the decline of Linus Media Group or something.

37
00:03:16,000 --> 00:03:19,000
Oh, nice. Yeah, yeah. That's cool.

38
00:03:19,000 --> 00:03:24,000
Um, we're on the precipice, folks. We're on the brink.

39
00:03:24,000 --> 00:03:29,000
Look, uh, cell phone backer rod.

40
00:03:29,000 --> 00:03:33,000
Okay. You actually have my full and undivided attention.

41
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:36,000
Um, backer rod. Yeah.

42
00:03:36,000 --> 00:03:41,000
I had one extra large cylindrical rod that I had to shove in this.

43
00:03:41,000 --> 00:03:46,000
Now he's just baiting me. In this, in this relatively small, especially the opening hole.

44
00:03:46,000 --> 00:03:49,000
Yeah. No, it's true. He showed me.

45
00:03:49,000 --> 00:03:54,000
And then not only did I have to put one extra large backer rod.

46
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:57,000
You might say he's a master baiter. In this relatively small hole.

47
00:03:57,000 --> 00:04:00,000
Yeah. I had to then put a second. Right.

48
00:04:00,000 --> 00:04:04,000
I could say. You could say that it, the hole had to be penetrated twice.

49
00:04:04,000 --> 00:04:07,000
Yeah. Yeah. Double rod.

50
00:04:07,000 --> 00:04:10,000
Right. Double rod. Yeah.

51
00:04:10,000 --> 00:04:13,000
However, it sounds like both rods went in the same hole.

52
00:04:13,000 --> 00:04:21,000
Now I've always wondered how the rods managed to maintain their size.

53
00:04:21,000 --> 00:04:26,000
Do they get compressed when they both fit into the one hole?

54
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:32,000
Or is it more that they're really not enjoying it much at that point?

55
00:04:32,000 --> 00:04:35,000
Because it's just kind of awkward and that makes it easier.

56
00:04:35,000 --> 00:04:38,000
These ones enjoyed it. They did. Oh, I see.

57
00:04:38,000 --> 00:04:42,000
They were, by the time I was done, they were very dense.

58
00:04:42,000 --> 00:04:45,000
Right. There was a lot of. Were they also done?

59
00:04:45,000 --> 00:04:48,000
Mm-hmm. Well, then how were they dense?

60
00:04:48,000 --> 00:04:51,000
They just had. You would think they'd have been more spongy.

61
00:04:51,000 --> 00:04:57,000
They just had that, what was it even called again?

62
00:04:57,000 --> 00:05:01,000
Refactored? They had fantastic refactory time.

63
00:05:01,000 --> 00:05:04,000
Jesus. We're getting too literal now.

64
00:05:04,000 --> 00:05:07,000
Yeah. So I had to. Anyway.

65
00:05:07,000 --> 00:05:12,840
I had to refill those slots. We pulled out this expansion joint material, which was kind of like a plywood, but it was

66
00:05:12,840 --> 00:05:17,480
rotten so it didn't have quite the structural integrity that normal plywood has.

67
00:05:17,480 --> 00:05:21,200
Took that out, had to clean it a bunch a lot, a lot, a lot.

68
00:05:21,200 --> 00:05:25,240
It also was very annoying that the cement, we thought it was like this.

69
00:05:25,240 --> 00:05:35,600
It was more like that. So there was a material down here and getting that stuff out was very difficult.

70
00:05:35,600 --> 00:05:39,000
Took a lot of time. What is wrong?

71
00:05:39,000 --> 00:05:42,000
Oh my God.

72
00:05:42,000 --> 00:05:45,000
So anyways, I had to put that back in.

73
00:05:45,000 --> 00:05:52,000
So with the speed and the force required, I like skinned a lot of my fingers basically.

74
00:05:52,000 --> 00:05:56,000
Oh. Like you can see it's like a little shiny and red.

75
00:05:56,000 --> 00:05:59,000
Yeah. So your skin's thin. All of them.

76
00:05:59,000 --> 00:06:02,000
Okay. So basically you're mostly unharmed.

77
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:05,000
You just need to grow a thicker skin.

78
00:06:05,000 --> 00:06:08,000
Yeah. I do that. Yeah.

79
00:06:08,000 --> 00:06:12,000
Totally. That is actually 100% correct.

80
00:06:12,000 --> 00:06:16,000
Like my forearms like kind of sore and stuff, but the biggest problem is that my thick skin

81
00:06:16,000 --> 00:06:19,000
is gone and I need to regrow a thicker skin.

82
00:06:19,000 --> 00:06:22,000
Right. Yeah. That's probably what I should do too.

83
00:06:23,000 --> 00:06:28,000
It was, it's been interesting.

84
00:06:28,000 --> 00:06:32,000
Like I had a, we have a couple new hires in lab.

85
00:06:32,000 --> 00:06:36,000
So we went out for lunch to like socialize and meet the new people.

86
00:06:36,000 --> 00:06:41,000
Sounds toxic. The place we're at.

87
00:06:41,000 --> 00:06:44,000
Was it pizza? No. No, I know.

88
00:06:44,000 --> 00:06:47,000
Just pizza lunch is toxic now. Yeah.

89
00:06:47,000 --> 00:06:50,000
Toxic workplaces. And they served tea at the place that we were at.

90
00:06:50,000 --> 00:06:54,000
Right. So I'm going to pick it up with my skinned fingers.

91
00:06:54,000 --> 00:06:59,000
It was immediately like, whoa. With my what?

92
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:02,000
Did you say that?

93
00:07:02,000 --> 00:07:05,000
Did you not mute? What did you say? I don't know.

94
00:07:05,000 --> 00:07:09,000
I wasn't there. I didn't see it.

95
00:07:09,000 --> 00:07:12,000
You did say that.

96
00:07:12,000 --> 00:07:15,000
Wow. Totally unmuted. The floaters just get a.

97
00:07:15,000 --> 00:07:18,000
My hands were busy. Oh yeah.

98
00:07:18,000 --> 00:07:19,000
Yeah.

99
00:07:21,000 --> 00:07:25,000
Because I'm also a master baiter.

100
00:07:25,000 --> 00:07:28,000
I don't see. Yeah.

101
00:07:28,000 --> 00:07:37,000
Yeah. Sneaky like that. You wouldn't know.

102
00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:43,000
Oh my God. What even is this show?

103
00:07:43,000 --> 00:07:46,000
I think it's going to be one of those weeks where I question it.

104
00:07:46,000 --> 00:07:50,000
So this is a Christian stream.

105
00:07:50,000 --> 00:07:54,000
It's really interesting watching your kids grow up from like little babies that the only

106
00:07:54,000 --> 00:07:59,000
thing that they know is whatever you tell them to like having their own like ideas and

107
00:07:59,000 --> 00:08:06,000
stuff, you know, like where do I even, where do I even see this?

108
00:08:06,000 --> 00:08:11,000
Some of the floaters are demanding that they be referred to as float goats.

109
00:08:11,000 --> 00:08:20,000
I'm down. So my son has like a status on one of his platforms that he uses.

110
00:08:20,000 --> 00:08:25,000
And it's like, it's, it's just like, it's a funny thing.

111
00:08:25,000 --> 00:08:29,000
Like I never would have had my parents on a texting platform that I would have used

112
00:08:29,000 --> 00:08:32,000
when I was his age, right? Because that wasn't a thing.

113
00:08:32,000 --> 00:08:36,000
They were like, what, telephone, you know, like, right?

114
00:08:36,000 --> 00:08:41,000
And so it's just, it's weird having like insight into how they are growing and developing

115
00:08:41,000 --> 00:08:50,000
their own thoughts. So the status is everyone is an atheist unless you believe in God.

116
00:08:50,000 --> 00:08:54,000
And then he just has like a surprised face with like, is that like the sushi chef one?

117
00:08:54,000 --> 00:08:57,000
Or like, what, what do you mean? Oh, no. Head explosion.

118
00:08:57,000 --> 00:09:01,000
I couldn't see it. Head explosion. It's like, okay.

119
00:09:01,000 --> 00:09:04,000
Yeah. That's a. Except no.

120
00:09:04,000 --> 00:09:07,000
I think he's memeing though.

121
00:09:07,000 --> 00:09:10,000
Oh. I'm rather certain he's memeing.

122
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:15,000
A hundred percent.

123
00:09:15,000 --> 00:09:18,000
It took me so long to get my laptop.

124
00:09:18,000 --> 00:09:21,000
That I now don't have any time to do the thing that I need to do on my laptop, which is

125
00:09:21,000 --> 00:09:26,000
really cool. Are we ready to start the show?

126
00:09:26,000 --> 00:09:29,000
Yeah, I think so.

127
00:09:29,000 --> 00:09:32,000
Dan. Okay. Shut down.

128
00:09:32,000 --> 00:09:37,000
Nice. It's doing that thing where it comes out of sleep and overheats my bag.

129
00:09:37,000 --> 00:09:49,000
Pretty cool. Oh, nice. That's slick.

130
00:09:49,000 --> 00:10:05,000
I should have the dashboard open so that I can see when the show goes live.

131
00:10:05,000 --> 00:10:16,000
Sorry. I'm actually not quite ready. I also have to sign into the selected.

132
00:10:16,000 --> 00:10:19,500
Your lid function must not be enabled for battery mode.

133
00:10:19,500 --> 00:10:23,000
That would be so sick if that was true. Yeah.

134
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:28,000
If only. Unfortunately. Can enable whatever I want.

135
00:10:28,000 --> 00:10:31,840
Yeah. But that was Windows.

136
00:10:31,840 --> 00:10:35,360
And when I'm booted into Windows.

137
00:10:35,360 --> 00:10:41,360
It just decides to wake up and do things really intensely in the bag.

138
00:10:41,360 --> 00:10:45,360
Ow. I'm dual booting right now.

139
00:10:45,360 --> 00:10:49,360
Those were nice. Those first couple were.

140
00:10:49,360 --> 00:10:52,360
I'm pain. Not nice. I had ladder last night.

141
00:10:52,360 --> 00:10:55,360
So I'm sore.

142
00:10:55,360 --> 00:10:58,360
It's good though.

143
00:10:58,360 --> 00:11:06,360
People are still complaining about the ELO system.

144
00:11:06,360 --> 00:11:09,360
I think that's just a fact of life.

145
00:11:09,360 --> 00:11:19,360
So the current feedback is basically like I play the same people every week.

146
00:11:19,360 --> 00:11:22,360
I'm like, okay.

147
00:11:22,360 --> 00:11:27,360
Yeah. Beat them.

148
00:11:27,360 --> 00:11:30,360
Or lose a lot. Yeah.

149
00:11:30,360 --> 00:11:38,360
That's also an option. I looked up just because I'm working on an FAQ because I do think part of it is people

150
00:11:38,360 --> 00:11:43,360
just sort of not really like understanding it. All they have is their score that they can log in.

151
00:11:43,360 --> 00:11:46,360
Or they can. There's like a Google sheet. They can see it.

152
00:11:46,360 --> 00:11:50,360
And then that's it. So if they don't. Have you seen the other one yet?

153
00:11:50,360 --> 00:11:53,360
No. Haven't. Yeah.

154
00:11:53,360 --> 00:11:56,360
Hopefully I will soon. And that's about it.

155
00:11:56,360 --> 00:12:01,360
So if you don't like, you know, understand the ELO system, which I don't blame you.

156
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:04,360
Not everybody's familiar with it. Then it's just like this.

157
00:12:04,360 --> 00:12:07,360
It seems like this arbitrary score.

158
00:12:07,360 --> 00:12:10,360
And so I'm working on like an FAQ.

159
00:12:10,360 --> 00:12:14,360
And one of the things I think I'm going to include in the FAQ is like, okay, you know,

160
00:12:14,360 --> 00:12:21,360
how do I move up? And I'm going to be like, okay, well, I think it was chess.com recommends that if you want

161
00:12:21,360 --> 00:12:26,360
your ELO score to improve by a hundred points, you should probably start practicing 30 to

162
00:12:26,360 --> 00:12:34,360
60 minutes a day. You're not just going to like magically go up in a system like this.

163
00:12:34,360 --> 00:12:37,360
And I think part of the problem is that most ladder systems.

164
00:12:37,360 --> 00:12:40,360
So do you have to teach people how to develop skills?

165
00:12:40,360 --> 00:12:44,360
Well, I have to teach people to socially network apparently.

166
00:12:44,360 --> 00:12:49,360
Like we've had multiple people leave one star reviews because they didn't have they

167
00:12:49,360 --> 00:12:53,360
can find friends or whatever. We don't have enough mixer nights that are at like a lower play level.

168
00:12:53,360 --> 00:12:57,360
I'm like, bro, mixer night is for you to meet people who are at your level.

169
00:12:57,360 --> 00:13:00,360
And then you play a different time. It's not for you to just play mixer night.

170
00:13:00,360 --> 00:13:04,360
It's not like beginner drop in. It's mixer night.

171
00:13:04,360 --> 00:13:07,360
It's literally in the name.

172
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:13,360
So yeah, ladder. I think people are just kind of having a hard time wrapping their brain around that like the

173
00:13:13,360 --> 00:13:16,360
only way to go up is to win consistently.

174
00:13:16,360 --> 00:13:21,360
You can't just like win half your games, but probably stay about the same if you do that.

175
00:13:21,360 --> 00:13:27,360
Yeah. But most ladders, the way that they work is like on a given week, if you get the most

176
00:13:27,360 --> 00:13:30,360
points on your court, you like go up.

177
00:13:30,360 --> 00:13:34,360
You are like promoted to the next tier next week.

178
00:13:34,360 --> 00:13:40,360
That sucks. Which is it's good for causing things to mix more.

179
00:13:40,360 --> 00:13:45,360
Yes. I understand that if you have a small pool of people and we do have a relatively small

180
00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:49,360
pool, it's only about 130 or something like that.

181
00:13:49,360 --> 00:13:52,360
But I don't know, man.

182
00:13:52,360 --> 00:14:01,360
I mean, I started training for two to three hours a week and I'm going up.

183
00:14:01,360 --> 00:14:09,360
So the path says, you know, this is exactly like how the Starcraft two letter was.

184
00:14:09,360 --> 00:14:12,360
Everyone feels like they're in the next league. Yeah.

185
00:14:12,360 --> 00:14:17,360
That's also the same as legal legends. That's also the same as everything.

186
00:14:17,360 --> 00:14:24,360
Well, part of the problem is that what people in like what people will objectively, you

187
00:14:24,360 --> 00:14:32,360
know, come to me and say the system is flawed about is that while I played, I played those

188
00:14:32,360 --> 00:14:37,360
guys that are two courts above me on in drop in night and we have really close games.

189
00:14:37,360 --> 00:14:43,360
Sometimes I beat them. And I'm like sometimes beat them means sometimes you lose.

190
00:14:43,360 --> 00:14:46,360
That's drop in night. Oh, yeah.

191
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:51,360
Do I have to be the one to explain to you that they're being nice to you?

192
00:14:51,360 --> 00:14:55,360
Oh, I don't want to have to be that guy.

193
00:14:55,360 --> 00:14:59,360
But like that.

194
00:14:59,360 --> 00:15:03,360
That's right. Sorry. Jeff, JK and Flooping Chesed.

195
00:15:03,360 --> 00:15:14,360
You beat them. Gross. At least I didn't sell a rhythm.

196
00:15:14,360 --> 00:15:20,360
Anyway, I don't know, dude.

197
00:15:20,360 --> 00:15:24,360
I think it's hard stuck silver badminton players law.

198
00:15:24,360 --> 00:15:31,360
You should make it metals. You can easily because you just apply metals to ranges of Elo.

199
00:15:31,360 --> 00:15:40,360
Spectrally how it started. But the thing is like I don't think that'll help because people have access to their score

200
00:15:40,360 --> 00:15:44,360
already. They just want to play with different people.

201
00:15:44,360 --> 00:15:48,600
Oh, no. They'll just start really caring a lot about the metals, which is just how you get people

202
00:15:48,600 --> 00:15:51,840
to engage more. It doesn't mean it'll help. Yeah.

203
00:15:51,840 --> 00:15:57,400
Actually just add anxiety. I think I don't think that'll help because I think that's why basically every game now

204
00:15:57,400 --> 00:16:03,320
just gives you metal upgrades like they created so many levels of ranks so they can just

205
00:16:03,320 --> 00:16:09,320
like if you color people's armband based on their level or wristband or whatever.

206
00:16:09,320 --> 00:16:12,320
No. Amazing. No, definitely not.

207
00:16:12,320 --> 00:16:15,320
Okay. Yeah. Let's just start this thing.

208
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:30,880
He came to my court. He's cold. Like like you did whatever when are you going to do a hard reset new season you got badminton

209
00:16:30,880 --> 00:16:34,720
DLC. How's the tiny phone?

210
00:16:34,720 --> 00:16:38,200
Are you going to talk about that on the show? Maybe a little bit.

211
00:16:38,200 --> 00:16:44,040
I've struggled so much with moving over to it that I haven't actually really made a ton

212
00:16:44,040 --> 00:16:48,840
of notes on it yet. It's too small. I don't actually.

213
00:16:48,840 --> 00:16:56,040
The migration is functionally worthless. So it managed to bring over like six messages or something.

214
00:16:56,040 --> 00:16:59,480
Oh my God.

215
00:16:59,480 --> 00:17:05,600
Stop. Oh, maybe not. It told me it brought over like six messages, but this seems like more.

216
00:17:05,600 --> 00:17:09,480
I don't know. I don't know what this is.

217
00:17:09,480 --> 00:17:13,840
And then I asked it, it asks you, okay, do you want to migrate your Google account?

218
00:17:13,840 --> 00:17:17,280
Do you want to migrate your apps? And I'm like, yes and yes.

219
00:17:17,280 --> 00:17:23,640
It did neither of those things. It put a bunch of shortcuts to download apps.

220
00:17:23,640 --> 00:17:27,440
That's annoying. Why? Well, what was the point of this?

221
00:17:27,440 --> 00:17:31,200
Why did it? Why did the transfer take so long? What were you even doing?

222
00:17:31,200 --> 00:17:35,920
It's also annoying that it isn't just like a download button. It's a view in store button.

223
00:17:35,920 --> 00:17:39,800
So it doesn't even really save you that many clicks. No. It just like searches for it.

224
00:17:39,800 --> 00:17:42,800
Yeah. That's dumb. Wild.

225
00:17:42,800 --> 00:17:46,560
That would annoy the crap out of me. All right.

226
00:17:46,560 --> 00:17:55,080
Okay. Sorry, sorry.

227
00:17:55,080 --> 00:18:01,280
Resuming the selected now.

228
00:18:01,280 --> 00:18:03,280
Thank you.

229
00:18:32,280 --> 00:18:40,280
What is up everybody and welcome to the WEN show. We've got a great, great show lined up for you guys this week.

230
00:18:40,280 --> 00:18:49,280
We're gonna be talking about YouTube taking down a video that showed how to turn your Plex server into a live TV channel.

231
00:18:49,280 --> 00:18:52,280
That was dangerous and harmful. Dangerous.

232
00:18:52,280 --> 00:18:56,280
Yeah, we can't have that. Yeah, you might have... You might store ISOs there.

233
00:18:56,280 --> 00:18:59,280
You wouldn't download a danger, would you?

234
00:18:59,280 --> 00:19:03,280
I would download. I have downloaded danger. You've downloaded danger.

235
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:06,280
I have objectively downloaded danger. How did you download my middle name?

236
00:19:06,280 --> 00:19:18,280
In other news, Microsoft has blocked more ways to set up a Windows 11 local account.

237
00:19:19,280 --> 00:19:26,280
Do they have like a committee, an internal committee for how to make things less convenient?

238
00:19:26,280 --> 00:19:30,280
How to make Windows worse? Good committee, quality committee.

239
00:19:30,280 --> 00:19:39,280
It feels like it. Truly doing the Lord's work. In good news, Synology backpedals on banning third-party hard drives and in...

240
00:19:39,280 --> 00:19:43,280
Is there more good news somewhere? I told them there was a good show.

241
00:19:43,280 --> 00:19:47,280
I told them it was a good show. It is gonna be a good show, but is there more good news?

242
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:51,280
Microsoft promises more Xbox hardware still on the way.

243
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:55,280
Do you care about that? I don't know. Sure, let's go with that.

244
00:19:55,280 --> 00:20:19,280
That's the best I could get. The show is brought to you today by Vessi, Proton, Squarespace, and Ubiquiti.

245
00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:25,280
Alongside, of course, our wrap partner, D-Brand, our laptop partner, Dell, and our chair partner, Secret Lab.

246
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:26,280
With the flip around?

247
00:20:29,280 --> 00:20:32,280
The what? You did it out of order. Did I?

248
00:20:32,280 --> 00:20:36,280
Yeah. You even ever so slightly hickey. You don't even notice anymore, do you?

249
00:20:36,280 --> 00:20:39,280
You just auto-correct. That's fantastic.

250
00:20:39,280 --> 00:20:43,280
What was the flip around? You did the middle one, then the top one, then the bottom one.

251
00:20:49,280 --> 00:20:51,280
Did he not? I thought he just did that.

252
00:20:52,280 --> 00:20:58,280
Just over a week ago, Space Invader One had a video taken down from their channel for,

253
00:20:58,280 --> 00:21:02,280
and I quote, dangerous and harmful content.

254
00:21:02,280 --> 00:21:08,280
The video in question showed, Ersatz TV, a program that lets you convert your Plex,

255
00:21:08,280 --> 00:21:13,280
MB, or Jellyfin Library into a live TV channel.

256
00:21:13,280 --> 00:21:18,280
Space Invader One states that they are sure to never include copyrighted content,

257
00:21:18,280 --> 00:21:25,280
and in this case, even used public domain films such as The Brain That Wouldn't Die.

258
00:21:25,280 --> 00:21:32,280
Amazing. Since this takedown, they have requested an appeal with no further update on whether this was resolved.

259
00:21:32,280 --> 00:21:36,280
They did say the video is still up on their Patreon for free,

260
00:21:36,280 --> 00:21:40,280
in case you guys are interested in seeing it and supporting.

261
00:21:40,280 --> 00:21:43,280
Our discussion question here from the one and only Elijah Horner is,

262
00:21:43,280 --> 00:21:48,280
it feels like we know what the real reason was for this video being taken down,

263
00:21:48,280 --> 00:21:52,280
considering that we had our part two of The Google Your Life Taken Down

264
00:21:52,280 --> 00:21:56,280
for showcasing an ad-free workaround for YouTube.

265
00:21:58,280 --> 00:22:02,280
Would it be better if Google just told you the reasoning outright,

266
00:22:02,280 --> 00:22:07,280
rather than saying dangerous and harmful, or is there a reason for them to keep this vague?

267
00:22:08,280 --> 00:22:13,280
There's definitely a reason. There's absolutely a reason.

268
00:22:13,280 --> 00:22:15,280
You never, if you want,

269
00:22:17,280 --> 00:22:21,280
whenever you're trying to moderate a social platform,

270
00:22:21,280 --> 00:22:24,280
you can't be too specific about the rules,

271
00:22:24,280 --> 00:22:28,280
because all that does, I mean, we saw this with Twitch.

272
00:22:28,280 --> 00:22:32,280
Right. Twitch tried to implement some rules of what you couldn't do.

273
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:39,280
Right. You've got to be, you know, at least within four inches of your chin for your neckline.

274
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:43,280
And so you'll have people at 3.9 inches,

275
00:22:43,280 --> 00:22:47,280
or they'll get a chin extension, you know, injection,

276
00:22:47,280 --> 00:22:50,280
so that they can wear a slightly lower shirt or whatever, right?

277
00:22:50,280 --> 00:22:56,280
Whatever. Like, I know some person wore really tight-fitting green clothes,

278
00:22:56,280 --> 00:23:00,280
and then green screened the game onto the clothes. You couldn't actually see them wearing any clothes,

279
00:23:00,280 --> 00:23:03,280
so it gave the illusion that they were, like,

280
00:23:03,280 --> 00:23:06,280
people will find a way, no matter what.

281
00:23:06,280 --> 00:23:11,280
There is as many examples of this as you want. This is with standard everyday law.

282
00:23:11,280 --> 00:23:14,280
This is with rules on platforms, whatever.

283
00:23:14,280 --> 00:23:18,280
So if you're vague and you're just like, you broke a rule bad,

284
00:23:18,280 --> 00:23:22,280
then it's harder for those people to try to gamify working around the rules.

285
00:23:22,280 --> 00:23:26,280
Right. So why don't we try to dig into why they care?

286
00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:30,280
I don't know who it was. Why they care about this? Because here's a funny thing,

287
00:23:30,280 --> 00:23:35,280
and I am probably about to get myself into trouble here, because...

288
00:23:35,280 --> 00:23:38,280
Nice. Let's go. Yeah, I mean, you know what?

289
00:23:38,280 --> 00:23:42,280
We're pretty deep into the show at this point. I think realistically,

290
00:23:42,280 --> 00:23:45,280
most people probably aren't watching anymore.

291
00:23:45,280 --> 00:23:48,280
Windows-free Linus.

292
00:23:48,280 --> 00:23:51,280
Okay. Here's this guy.

293
00:23:51,280 --> 00:23:57,280
Look at this hair. I mean, can you imagine being in your late 30s and doing this?

294
00:23:57,280 --> 00:24:00,280
What is this bracelet? Okay, the point is, it doesn't matter.

295
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:03,280
Are you paying too much for Windows? He's wearing this.

296
00:24:03,280 --> 00:24:06,280
He's wearing this pirate hat. Free.

297
00:24:06,280 --> 00:24:09,280
Free Windows. I think whoever dyed your hair there did a really good job.

298
00:24:09,280 --> 00:24:12,280
Quality. Quality job. Yeah.

299
00:24:12,280 --> 00:24:23,280
That video was uploaded, I think, a day after our warning for de-Google Your Life Part 2 expired,

300
00:24:23,280 --> 00:24:28,280
because if we had uploaded something to do with piracy, which...

301
00:24:28,280 --> 00:24:34,280
Sure. Google, just to let you know, 100% agrees with me that ad block is piracy.

302
00:24:34,280 --> 00:24:38,280
They're real clear on that. Wow, I wasn't sure about that one.

303
00:24:38,280 --> 00:24:42,280
Yeah. Well, that was one of the big arguments for why it was wrong.

304
00:24:42,280 --> 00:24:45,280
Oh. Like back when I first said that. Google doesn't...

305
00:24:45,280 --> 00:24:48,280
Yeah, they do. They definitely do.

306
00:24:48,280 --> 00:24:51,280
They have the extension so that they can stay competitive, not because they like it.

307
00:24:52,280 --> 00:24:56,280
So our video, how to de-Google Your Life Part 2 was taken down

308
00:24:56,280 --> 00:24:59,280
because of specific instructions,

309
00:24:59,280 --> 00:25:02,280
which I don't even know if we got that deep into it,

310
00:25:02,280 --> 00:25:05,280
but basically talking about circumventing ads on YouTube.

311
00:25:05,280 --> 00:25:11,280
And the justification given to me was that it was because it was anything

312
00:25:11,280 --> 00:25:15,280
around breaking a digital lock was essentially...

313
00:25:15,280 --> 00:25:18,280
Sorry, Gator is harmful. Can't have it on the platform.

314
00:25:18,280 --> 00:25:23,280
Really? So we waited 91 days or whatever the number was.

315
00:25:23,280 --> 00:25:30,280
I don't remember. 92 days or something. Basically, we had this video done when de-Google Your Life Part 2 went up,

316
00:25:30,280 --> 00:25:33,280
but we held it until our...

317
00:25:33,280 --> 00:25:36,280
Not a strike, it wasn't a strike, but until our warning expired

318
00:25:36,280 --> 00:25:41,280
so that we wouldn't accumulate two warnings because I think the third one, you're actually in serious trouble

319
00:25:41,280 --> 00:25:44,280
and you end up with like a strike or a channel suspension or something like that.

320
00:25:44,280 --> 00:25:47,280
Or maybe it's the second one. Don't quote me on that details.

321
00:25:47,280 --> 00:25:50,280
The point is we didn't want two warnings.

322
00:25:50,280 --> 00:25:55,280
We didn't even want one warning. I don't know why I'm talking about this right now then.

323
00:25:55,280 --> 00:26:03,280
So this video contains pretty specific instructions

324
00:26:03,280 --> 00:26:08,280
on how to obtain Windows for free.

325
00:26:08,280 --> 00:26:11,280
Why doesn't YouTube care?

326
00:26:11,280 --> 00:26:16,280
So my theory at the time, because we've talked about piracy lots,

327
00:26:16,280 --> 00:26:21,280
my theory at the time was the only reason that de-Google Your Life Part 2

328
00:26:21,280 --> 00:26:27,280
ruffled their undergarments was that it was specifically around YouTube,

329
00:26:27,280 --> 00:26:30,280
around their platform.

330
00:26:30,280 --> 00:26:35,280
I can't figure out where this ersatz TV thing falls into that

331
00:26:35,280 --> 00:26:39,280
because I doubt it has anything to do with people wanting to broadcast YouTube.

332
00:26:39,280 --> 00:26:43,280
I mean, the whole point of YouTube is that it's on demand.

333
00:26:43,280 --> 00:26:46,280
It's not like a streaming service.

334
00:26:46,280 --> 00:26:50,280
And the kind of piracy that it seems like they are concerned about.

335
00:26:50,280 --> 00:26:54,280
I promise you there are auto-downloader scripts for plex that scrape YouTube channels.

336
00:26:54,280 --> 00:26:57,280
Sure, but what would be the point of watching that?

337
00:26:57,280 --> 00:27:03,280
It would be far more of a waste of your time to sit through a whole bunch of video from that channel

338
00:27:03,280 --> 00:27:06,280
that you don't want to watch in order to get to the one you want to watch

339
00:27:06,280 --> 00:27:10,280
versus just sitting through the ad on YouTube.

340
00:27:10,280 --> 00:27:13,280
Because this is for streaming.

341
00:27:13,280 --> 00:27:16,280
Oh. Yeah.

342
00:27:16,280 --> 00:27:20,280
So there's no real threat to YouTube here.

343
00:27:20,280 --> 00:27:26,280
The main threat is probably more along the lines of enabling people who run

344
00:27:26,280 --> 00:27:30,280
like pirate video streaming subscription services.

345
00:27:30,280 --> 00:27:36,280
Like having a Disney movie channel that you have people in your social circle.

346
00:27:36,280 --> 00:27:40,280
You advertise on Facebook Marketplace or Craigslist or whatever.

347
00:27:40,280 --> 00:27:46,280
I don't think that's the case. It's totally a thing. No, I think this is downloading VODs for sure.

348
00:27:46,280 --> 00:27:51,280
It says make your own live TV channel, but I think they would do that by downloading VODs

349
00:27:51,280 --> 00:27:54,280
and then mixing them into a live feed.

350
00:27:54,280 --> 00:27:58,280
So you're still downloading things from YouTube and then playing them somewhere else.

351
00:27:58,280 --> 00:28:03,280
But if you wanted to do that, then why wouldn't you just share your Plex library?

352
00:28:03,280 --> 00:28:07,280
Am I missing something here? Please tell me if I'm missing something here. I want to be based on YouTube videos.

353
00:28:07,280 --> 00:28:11,280
I don't think it's like, is there a better option or not necessarily.

354
00:28:11,280 --> 00:28:15,280
I think at its core, they were downloading YouTube videos and then having them play

355
00:28:15,280 --> 00:28:18,280
in effectively random order off of your own thing.

356
00:28:18,280 --> 00:28:22,280
Yeah, no. It's enjoy your own, build your own live TV channels.

357
00:28:22,280 --> 00:28:25,280
So it's like this with like programming.

358
00:28:25,280 --> 00:28:28,280
And it's like at a scheduled time.

359
00:28:28,280 --> 00:28:33,280
Yeah. But they're YouTube videos. They're not live streams.

360
00:28:33,280 --> 00:28:37,280
Your thing is a live stream, but what you're downloading is YouTube videos.

361
00:28:37,280 --> 00:28:41,280
So it still fits in the reason why you think our video is taken down because it shows you

362
00:28:41,280 --> 00:28:48,280
how to download YouTube videos. Okay, but I don't think he's, but he wasn't talking about YouTube videos and I don't

363
00:28:48,280 --> 00:28:52,280
think that's what most people are using this for. Because like, why would you do that?

364
00:28:52,280 --> 00:28:57,280
Why would you want this experience for YouTube videos?

365
00:28:57,280 --> 00:29:00,280
I mean, even just look at their example.

366
00:29:00,280 --> 00:29:03,280
This is all traditional media.

367
00:29:03,280 --> 00:29:09,280
Like this is not YouTube. This is not what I would think anyone would be doing with this.

368
00:29:09,280 --> 00:29:17,280
And I suspect that the people who are trying to use this in any kind of commercial fashion

369
00:29:17,280 --> 00:29:22,280
are more trying to monetize this like live TV experience.

370
00:29:22,280 --> 00:29:27,280
So it's had nothing. Given that it doesn't threaten YouTube's own content.

371
00:29:27,280 --> 00:29:31,280
I'm just, I'm a little surprised that they care.

372
00:29:31,280 --> 00:29:34,280
I made a bad assumption that this had something to do at all with YouTube.

373
00:29:34,280 --> 00:29:37,280
No. Yeah, I don't get it even slightly then.

374
00:29:37,280 --> 00:29:44,280
No, turning your Plex library into TV channels is what or Sats TV does.

375
00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:48,280
If I had to, if I, okay, this is, this is pretty good from chat.

376
00:29:48,280 --> 00:29:51,280
So maybe they got a cease and desist.

377
00:29:51,280 --> 00:29:55,280
Like maybe this was one of the more traditional content providers that basically went,

378
00:29:55,280 --> 00:29:58,280
hey, y'all need to remove this.

379
00:29:58,280 --> 00:30:05,280
Yeah, maybe. But then again, like you said, he used stuff like the brain that wouldn't die.

380
00:30:05,280 --> 00:30:10,280
Yeah. So you, it feels like he did this all above board.

381
00:30:10,280 --> 00:30:13,280
And like I also said, where's my takedown for this then?

382
00:30:13,280 --> 00:30:16,280
Yeah. So look at this guy.

383
00:30:16,280 --> 00:30:19,280
How could you not? Look at that shifty-eyed motherfucker.

384
00:30:19,280 --> 00:30:22,280
Wouldn't you just automatically want to take his videos down?

385
00:30:22,280 --> 00:30:30,280
Yeah, right? This is weird.

386
00:30:30,280 --> 00:30:34,280
I just, I just applied what happened to us to it and assumed.

387
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:38,280
No. Oh, here's a fun one.

388
00:30:38,280 --> 00:30:47,280
This might not be good to bring attention here. Sorry, Lawn, but LawnTV, a full-point guy actually, has a video on my streaming channel

389
00:30:47,280 --> 00:30:50,280
with Plex in there. That's TV four months ago.

390
00:30:50,280 --> 00:31:00,280
It's still up. It just feels like, and I look, I know it's probably not targeted, but it can't help

391
00:31:00,280 --> 00:31:07,280
but feel a little targeted when finding a video on this topic from four months ago was

392
00:31:07,280 --> 00:31:10,280
as easy as you just searching for it like that.

393
00:31:10,280 --> 00:31:14,280
Yeah.

394
00:31:14,280 --> 00:31:18,280
Well, good luck us and good luck everybody else.

395
00:31:18,280 --> 00:31:24,280
And if you guys want to check out the video, you can head over to Space Invader 1's Patreon

396
00:31:24,280 --> 00:31:31,280
where that video is still up. If you ever want to watch D-Google Your Life Part 2, I don't actually think we did leave

397
00:31:31,280 --> 00:31:34,280
it up on Floatplane.

398
00:31:34,280 --> 00:31:38,280
Did we? That is a good question.

399
00:31:38,280 --> 00:31:41,280
Part 2, it's up. Part 2's up. Oh, okay.

400
00:31:41,280 --> 00:31:44,280
Yeah. Are you sure? 100%.

401
00:31:44,280 --> 00:31:47,280
You're 100% sure. I am 100% sure.

402
00:31:48,280 --> 00:31:51,280
Oh, good.

403
00:31:51,280 --> 00:31:55,280
Okay. Neat. Well, that's up on, oh yeah, there it is.

404
00:31:55,280 --> 00:31:58,280
Cool. So that's up on Floatplane.

405
00:31:58,280 --> 00:32:01,280
Oh yeah, our search is not the greatest. There's a fun trick.

406
00:32:01,280 --> 00:32:05,280
If you put it in quotes, it immediately works wildly better.

407
00:32:05,280 --> 00:32:08,280
We know what's wrong. We'll get to fixing it.

408
00:32:08,280 --> 00:32:12,280
Nope, didn't work. You just put D-Google in quotes and it didn't work because I've done this like five times

409
00:32:12,280 --> 00:32:15,280
this show so far. No, because I didn't put D-Google.

410
00:32:15,280 --> 00:32:18,280
I just put Google your life. Oh.

411
00:32:18,280 --> 00:32:21,280
So it brought up probably any video that had the words Google your and life.

412
00:32:21,280 --> 00:32:24,280
Anywhere in the title, comments and description would be my guess, right?

413
00:32:24,280 --> 00:32:28,280
That is, it's been a long time since I've looked into our search, maybe.

414
00:32:28,280 --> 00:32:31,280
But yeah, D-Google would have worked for you.

415
00:32:31,280 --> 00:32:34,280
Cool. All right, what's next?

416
00:32:34,280 --> 00:32:37,280
What do you want to talk about, Dan? We're going to mix it up.

417
00:32:37,280 --> 00:32:43,280
Dan, choose our next topic. Oh, we're going to talk about Windows 11.

418
00:32:43,280 --> 00:32:47,280
Because I'm not moving over. Yeah, good.

419
00:32:47,280 --> 00:32:52,280
Ever. Good. I'm waiting for 12.

420
00:32:52,280 --> 00:32:58,280
You know that the past pattern of like good Windows, crappy Windows, good Windows, crappy

421
00:32:58,280 --> 00:33:03,280
Windows is not an indication of future good Windows.

422
00:33:03,280 --> 00:33:07,280
Prove me wrong Windows. I mean, don't tempt them.

423
00:33:07,280 --> 00:33:11,280
Prove you right. Prove him wrong. I'm just going backwards.

424
00:33:11,280 --> 00:33:14,280
I'm going back to seven. Good.

425
00:33:14,280 --> 00:33:21,280
Good. Microsoft is blocking more ways to set up a Windows 11 local account.

426
00:33:21,280 --> 00:33:27,640
When announcing Windows 11 insider preview builds 26120.6772, Microsoft revealed that

427
00:33:27,640 --> 00:33:34,280
they are removing known mechanisms for setting up an offline or local account.

428
00:33:34,280 --> 00:33:40,280
Microsoft says users will need to complete their Windows 11 setup with an internet connection

429
00:33:40,280 --> 00:33:43,280
and with a Microsoft account.

430
00:33:43,280 --> 00:33:49,280
As you would probably expect, it was not long before folks started to make workarounds.

431
00:33:49,280 --> 00:33:57,280
And notebook check, who we were reading when we were looking at this development, already

432
00:33:57,280 --> 00:34:02,280
has some examples of how to make a local account on Windows 11's new build.

433
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:09,280
Nice. So if you guys want to head on over, I'm not saying, look, Google, just calm down.

434
00:34:09,280 --> 00:34:12,280
You have a little relax. I think you should.

435
00:34:12,280 --> 00:34:15,280
I think you should go read the article and I think you should make a local account.

436
00:34:15,280 --> 00:34:18,280
I am not providing anyone with instructions to anything.

437
00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:25,280
I think you should do it. This is notebook check, an unaffiliated website with which I have nothing to do.

438
00:34:25,280 --> 00:34:31,280
I don't even know if they have ever even associated with me in any way.

439
00:34:31,280 --> 00:34:35,280
Maybe they said mean things about me. I literally don't know.

440
00:34:35,280 --> 00:34:42,280
What I do know is that this is not a page that you should ever look up.

441
00:34:42,280 --> 00:34:49,280
There, please don't take down my WAN Show.

442
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:54,280
Discussion question aside from simply allowing local accounts, what can Microsoft do to repair

443
00:34:54,280 --> 00:35:04,280
Windows 11's public image? I mean, dude, I mean, like where do you even, where do you even start with stuff like that?

444
00:35:04,280 --> 00:35:07,280
Right. Like here, let's try a thing.

445
00:35:07,280 --> 00:35:17,280
Let's try a thing for fun. Tell me something that might be on my computer that I could search for.

446
00:35:17,280 --> 00:35:20,280
I can tell you things I wish were on your computer that you could search for.

447
00:35:20,280 --> 00:35:25,280
What happened to local games without ads?

448
00:35:25,280 --> 00:35:28,280
Okay. Something. No pad.

449
00:35:28,280 --> 00:35:31,280
That'll show up. That'll work. Yeah.

450
00:35:31,280 --> 00:35:33,280
Okay. That worked immediately.

451
00:35:34,280 --> 00:35:40,280
Usually, it's individual files that I wouldn't know you have on your computer that doesn't

452
00:35:40,280 --> 00:35:43,280
immediately search up. Well, let's find out what files I have on my computer.

453
00:35:43,280 --> 00:35:46,280
Probably not a ton because they're WAN Show laptops.

454
00:35:46,280 --> 00:35:54,280
Yeah. This is not going to be an amazing example, but I'm pretty sure everybody has experienced

455
00:35:54,280 --> 00:35:57,280
this, so we could just tell them what you're talking about. Okay.

456
00:35:57,280 --> 00:36:01,280
Okay. Hold on. Basically, when you search for things on Windows and you can disable this.

457
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:08,280
I have found my favorite Luke meme.

458
00:36:08,280 --> 00:36:15,280
Okay. You know what? The search actually worked pretty okay there, but there's definitely times when it doesn't

459
00:36:15,280 --> 00:36:17,280
work too good.

460
00:36:22,280 --> 00:36:25,280
All right. Why don't we move on? My goodness.

461
00:36:25,280 --> 00:36:28,280
Oh, yeah. What could they do to fix the image?

462
00:36:28,280 --> 00:36:31,280
I mean, okay, fix the search.

463
00:36:31,280 --> 00:36:34,280
Well, maybe it's great. Yeah.

464
00:36:34,280 --> 00:36:40,280
Okay. Permanently fix the search. We should do a Labs thing.

465
00:36:40,280 --> 00:36:45,280
Does Windows search still suck? I don't know if it would prove it one way or the other, unfortunately.

466
00:36:45,280 --> 00:36:53,280
You could do a lot of dive. Yeah, but from one machine to the next, sometimes you'll have a pretty different experience.

467
00:36:53,280 --> 00:36:57,280
From one date, from one search to the next, I can take the same.

468
00:36:57,280 --> 00:37:04,280
A bunch of different ones. I can take the same characters and it will literally, like, oh man, what was one that

469
00:37:04,280 --> 00:37:10,280
would happen all the time for me? Because I had two applications that had the first three or four letters in common.

470
00:37:10,280 --> 00:37:13,280
That one's rough. Yeah, that one's really rough.

471
00:37:13,280 --> 00:37:18,280
When the one that it's auto-selecting will change after you finish typing.

472
00:37:18,280 --> 00:37:24,280
Even though they both share all the same letters, it will randomly change when you type one

473
00:37:24,280 --> 00:37:28,280
more letter. It's just bizarre. What's the name of...

474
00:37:32,280 --> 00:37:36,280
Battle State. I would try to open the Battle State Launcher back in the day.

475
00:37:36,280 --> 00:37:39,280
Right. I couldn't remember the name of the company. It's been a while.

476
00:37:39,280 --> 00:37:43,280
But I'd try to open the Battle State Launcher to play Tarkov and I type bat and it would

477
00:37:43,280 --> 00:37:47,280
show the Battle State Launcher and then in the time that it takes for me to shift my

478
00:37:47,280 --> 00:37:50,280
hand over to enter, it would switch to BattleNet.

479
00:37:50,280 --> 00:37:53,280
Then I'd be like, why?

480
00:37:53,280 --> 00:37:59,280
Hold on. You can load it under or something. Is this pre or post-activation acquisition?

481
00:37:59,280 --> 00:38:02,280
Putting on my tinfoil hat.

482
00:38:02,280 --> 00:38:05,280
Definitely post. Oh, I knew it.

483
00:38:05,280 --> 00:38:09,280
I knew it. This is a good one.

484
00:38:09,280 --> 00:38:13,280
XD stock and Floatplane chat says, I tried to open PowerShell the other day and it web

485
00:38:13,280 --> 00:38:16,280
searched it instead. No.

486
00:38:16,280 --> 00:38:22,280
I don't know. It's just, it's tough to, it's the kind of thing that's really tough to replicate.

487
00:38:22,280 --> 00:38:29,280
Yeah. One of them was the new Windows 11 preview build has folks wanting to jump ship.

488
00:38:29,280 --> 00:38:36,280
What advice would you give any Windows users considering swapping their OS in 2025?

489
00:38:36,280 --> 00:38:40,280
Do it. Some games are still a problem.

490
00:38:40,280 --> 00:38:43,280
But send it. Yeah. Give it a shot.

491
00:38:43,280 --> 00:38:48,280
Right? At least try. Here's a wild question.

492
00:38:48,280 --> 00:38:51,280
Do you need to play the games that are on Windows?

493
00:38:51,280 --> 00:38:54,280
Yeah, probably not. There's some like friend group issues.

494
00:38:54,280 --> 00:38:58,280
Yeah. I mean, you ran into that back when we did the Linux challenge a couple of years ago.

495
00:38:58,280 --> 00:39:01,280
And it would again be a problem. What game was it?

496
00:39:01,280 --> 00:39:05,280
Battlefield, which is funny because if I did it now, it would be Battlefield again.

497
00:39:05,280 --> 00:39:08,280
That's hilarious. Yeah. Nice.

498
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:11,280
Was that, was that Battlefield? 2042.

499
00:39:11,280 --> 00:39:14,280
Okay. Which turns out not a big deal that I couldn't play that one.

500
00:39:14,280 --> 00:39:17,280
Right. But you're pretty psyched for Battlefield 6. Pretty psyched for 6.

501
00:39:17,280 --> 00:39:20,280
Yeah, okay. I think it comes out like tonight, but I can't play because my computer's not set up anyways.

502
00:39:20,280 --> 00:39:23,280
Nice. I don't have like things to do. Nice.

503
00:39:23,280 --> 00:39:27,280
But I will play eventually. Maybe I'll play it in Think of You.

504
00:39:27,280 --> 00:39:30,280
I won't. I'll be playing the Middle East Chronicles.

505
00:39:30,280 --> 00:39:33,280
The what? Oh, the Final Fantasy Tactics. Oh, right, right, right, right, right, right, right.

506
00:39:33,280 --> 00:39:36,280
Yeah. I'm like 20. People are saying it's already out.

507
00:39:36,280 --> 00:39:39,280
Yeah. 25 hours. Today, right?

508
00:39:39,280 --> 00:39:46,280
I was working. Oh, Handyman figured it out. Yeah, it was Teams and Team Viewer was what I would always, it would like change.

509
00:39:46,280 --> 00:39:54,280
I'd type TEA and it would be like Team Viewer and I'd hit M and it'd be like, you mean

510
00:39:54,280 --> 00:39:58,280
Teams and I'd hit enter because sometimes my typing just like has momentum.

511
00:39:58,280 --> 00:40:01,280
Yeah, of course. I'll be like, oh, no, you've got it already.

512
00:40:01,280 --> 00:40:04,280
And then it would change right as I hit like one more key.

513
00:40:04,280 --> 00:40:07,280
Ah, no, it's not what I meant to open.

514
00:40:07,280 --> 00:40:15,280
Apparently, Stranger IFT, I don't know.

515
00:40:15,280 --> 00:40:18,280
My name is Floatgoat in Battlefield. Let's go.

516
00:40:18,280 --> 00:40:22,280
My little note here is maybe Microsoft should pull an edge.

517
00:40:22,280 --> 00:40:27,280
Other people are doing it. What if they just based their operating system off of Linux?

518
00:40:27,280 --> 00:40:32,280
With Edge, they just based it off of Chromium. What if they just gave up on the Windows kernel?

519
00:40:32,280 --> 00:40:35,280
What if they just let it die?

520
00:40:35,280 --> 00:40:38,280
Imagine how much better Windows Server would be.

521
00:40:38,280 --> 00:40:44,280
So that's kind of crazy. You're proposing that they turn Windows into a Linux distro.

522
00:40:44,280 --> 00:40:50,280
If the next iteration of Windows is just a distro of Linux.

523
00:40:50,280 --> 00:40:54,280
Yeah, with like a bunch of ads and bull crap, because that's what they do now, right?

524
00:40:54,280 --> 00:40:58,280
So that would work.

525
00:40:58,280 --> 00:41:04,280
I think they should just do it.

526
00:41:04,280 --> 00:41:07,280
What distro? I told you Windows 12 would be great.

527
00:41:07,280 --> 00:41:10,280
I told you, man. Dude.

528
00:41:10,280 --> 00:41:19,280
Windows aren't arched. Think about it. So much of the back catalog is going to have to be like emulatable because of the switch to ARM anyway.

529
00:41:19,280 --> 00:41:28,280
Like looking at what a colossal project that has been would figuring out a compatibility layer

530
00:41:28,280 --> 00:41:35,280
for your older Windows apps, for new Linux Windows, really be any harder than that.

531
00:41:35,280 --> 00:41:39,280
I literally don't know. I actually do not know the answer to that.

532
00:41:39,280 --> 00:41:49,280
It would be great. But given that Valve and the open source community managed to do it to a significant degree for gaming,

533
00:41:49,280 --> 00:41:57,280
given that there are already, there's already such widespread support for.

534
00:41:57,280 --> 00:42:04,280
Well, okay. No, sorry. I'm just, I'm trying to, I'm trying to wrap my brain around this because somehow in all the years of WAN Show,

535
00:42:04,280 --> 00:42:09,280
we have never talked about this.

536
00:42:10,280 --> 00:42:13,280
Could you, could you use? Microsoft Store and Game Pass Native on Linux?

537
00:42:13,280 --> 00:42:16,280
Yeah, why not? Could you use like virtualization in some way?

538
00:42:16,280 --> 00:42:21,280
Like could you, could you virtualize old Windows to run certain apps?

539
00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:25,280
Like could you? There's the WAN compatibility layer.

540
00:42:25,280 --> 00:42:29,280
Yeah. People have called that out in full potential.

541
00:42:29,280 --> 00:42:33,280
Anyways.

542
00:42:33,280 --> 00:42:36,280
There's some stuff to do this already. Yeah.

543
00:42:36,280 --> 00:42:42,280
Like Valve. They could just pour into these open source projects and get it done.

544
00:42:42,280 --> 00:42:45,280
Look at the rapid development that happened with Proton.

545
00:42:45,280 --> 00:42:54,280
Right. But they want, dude, they, but then why would OEMs like Lenovo and Acer keep pouring money

546
00:42:54,280 --> 00:42:57,280
into their coffers for Windows licenses then at that point?

547
00:42:57,280 --> 00:43:01,280
Because they do still make money on Windows as far as I can tell.

548
00:43:01,280 --> 00:43:07,280
Microsoft, Windows. Is it against agreements to charge for a Linux distro?

549
00:43:07,280 --> 00:43:10,280
No, I don't think so. Well, then they could just do that.

550
00:43:10,280 --> 00:43:13,280
Right. But who would pay for it at that point?

551
00:43:13,280 --> 00:43:18,280
The familiarity would be there. Not with the way they keep changing the stupid UI all the time.

552
00:43:18,280 --> 00:43:21,280
I mean, why was my start menu in the middle all of a sudden?

553
00:43:21,280 --> 00:43:26,280
Yeah. Redhead is pretty sure. I just didn't know if that was purely a support contract or if you actually had to pay for

554
00:43:26,280 --> 00:43:30,280
the distro itself. I wasn't sure about that.

555
00:43:31,280 --> 00:43:41,280
Windows revenue. Here we go. A fiscal year 2024 compared to fiscal year 2023 revenue increased 13%.

556
00:43:41,280 --> 00:43:47,280
Windows revenue increased 8% driven by growth in Windows commercial and Windows OEM.

557
00:43:47,280 --> 00:43:51,280
So note that retail is not their focus.

558
00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:56,280
Not even a little bit. Commercial products and cloud services revenue increased.

559
00:43:56,280 --> 00:43:59,280
Microsoft 365, Windows OEM. Oh, yeah.

560
00:43:59,280 --> 00:44:04,280
So this is just like system builders, Windows.

561
00:44:04,280 --> 00:44:12,280
Yeah. So I can't think of a reason why if I'm Lenovo, I want to keep paying even the bulk rate,

562
00:44:12,280 --> 00:44:19,280
bulk rate Windows licenses, if my user for this system is going to be able to just not

563
00:44:19,280 --> 00:44:22,280
run Windows and run all the same software. But that's the thing.

564
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:25,280
Run all the same software. Yeah.

565
00:44:25,280 --> 00:44:29,280
Stuff like Teams, Microsoft Teams is rough.

566
00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:34,280
Every time I've had to use it, it's rough to the point where it usually ends up being

567
00:44:34,280 --> 00:44:38,280
worth it to just run it in a browser, which is a worse experience for an app like that,

568
00:44:38,280 --> 00:44:41,280
in my opinion.

569
00:44:41,280 --> 00:44:45,280
RISO says most users are just going to use whatever their computer ships with, which

570
00:44:45,280 --> 00:44:48,280
is fair enough. I just, if I'm an Acer-

571
00:44:48,280 --> 00:44:52,280
People have tried it though and those are less popular options, even when they're cheaper.

572
00:44:52,280 --> 00:44:56,280
But I might want to dip my toes into it if all of a sudden it wouldn't matter.

573
00:44:56,280 --> 00:45:01,280
Like, if it legitimately wouldn't matter, because the second Microsoft ships their

574
00:45:01,280 --> 00:45:05,280
Windows fork or whatever, I think that already exists.

575
00:45:05,280 --> 00:45:08,280
I think it's just a Linux that is kind of skinned like Windows.

576
00:45:08,280 --> 00:45:13,280
But the second they ship that, you know that there's going to be forks upon forks upon forks

577
00:45:13,280 --> 00:45:19,280
upon forks of that, that try to replicate as much of the Linux Windows experience as

578
00:45:19,280 --> 00:45:27,280
possible. And if what matters to the typical users that their browser works and the familiarity of

579
00:45:27,280 --> 00:45:33,280
the interface, then I just don't think there's going to be much special sauce left for Windows

580
00:45:33,280 --> 00:45:39,280
at that point. Like, the compatibility is pretty much the only thing keeping me on it now.

581
00:45:39,280 --> 00:45:43,280
Like, just knowing that, especially games. It is purely the only thing keeping me on it.

582
00:45:43,280 --> 00:45:46,280
Anything I want to run is going to work on it.

583
00:45:46,280 --> 00:45:52,280
Unless they put a ton of work into proprietary compatibility layers, then I just don't really

584
00:45:52,280 --> 00:46:01,280
see what value their Windows Linux would have.

585
00:46:01,280 --> 00:46:04,280
I think it would be funny. Yeah, funny.

586
00:46:04,280 --> 00:46:07,280
I wonder if in like, there's billions of dollars on the line for them.

587
00:46:07,280 --> 00:46:10,280
They can't just do a long time. They can't just like post a new Windows.

588
00:46:10,280 --> 00:46:15,280
The computers are getting less and less central in people's lives.

589
00:46:15,280 --> 00:46:20,280
Linux is getting easier and easier for people to use and the barriers are getting lower

590
00:46:20,280 --> 00:46:23,280
due to things like proton.

591
00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:30,280
10 years, 15 years. If people just don't really care that much anymore, they could try.

592
00:46:30,280 --> 00:46:34,280
They'll still care about consider it long-term PMS at Microsoft.

593
00:46:34,280 --> 00:46:37,280
Consider it. I would love it to happen.

594
00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:41,280
I want Windows to die.

595
00:46:41,280 --> 00:46:44,280
I wish I didn't think that. I desperately wish I didn't think that.

596
00:46:44,280 --> 00:46:50,280
If you asked me like, seven years ago, I'd just be happy using Windows for the entire

597
00:46:50,280 --> 00:46:53,280
rest of my life. No problem. I like it a lot.

598
00:46:53,280 --> 00:47:04,280
The only trend line in Windows for a long, long time has been, I like, hate it.

599
00:47:04,280 --> 00:47:07,280
So unless there's a significant change.

600
00:47:07,280 --> 00:47:10,280
8.1 was okay. 8.1 was all right.

601
00:47:10,280 --> 00:47:18,280
Yeah. 8 was. 8.1 needed some work, but you could get it to be pretty solid.

602
00:47:18,280 --> 00:47:24,280
Yeah. And then it would stay pretty solid. Oh yeah, toward the end of 8.1 when it was service packed up, like it was.

603
00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:27,280
It was pretty all right. Yeah.

604
00:47:27,280 --> 00:47:32,280
And then right back at it, Windows 10 didn't like that.

605
00:47:32,280 --> 00:47:35,280
Never liked that. Windows 11 came out never liked that.

606
00:47:35,280 --> 00:47:38,280
I can't remember what I thought of Windows 10.

607
00:47:38,280 --> 00:47:47,280
I think Windows 10 was okay. I actually, man, it's kind of amazing how long ago Windows 10 came out.

608
00:47:47,280 --> 00:47:50,280
Yeah. So just for reference for people.

609
00:47:50,280 --> 00:47:53,280
Yeah. Windows 10 came out 10 years ago.

610
00:47:53,280 --> 00:47:59,280
Like what? So I have actively very much disliked everything about Windows for 10 years.

611
00:47:59,280 --> 00:48:07,280
Right. So at a certain point it's just like, damn dude, can we make Luke switch to macOS?

612
00:48:07,280 --> 00:48:14,280
Nope, probably not. I mean, it really doesn't matter that much, honestly.

613
00:48:14,280 --> 00:48:21,280
And macOS gets ironically better support from Microsoft than Linux does in a lot of cases.

614
00:48:21,280 --> 00:48:24,280
Oh, no. Teams on macOS is fine. Definitely.

615
00:48:24,280 --> 00:48:27,280
Yeah. Yeah. That's not even, that's like all the time.

616
00:48:27,280 --> 00:48:33,280
Oh no, no, I know. I just mean, the irony is just that, you know, Windows Mac.

617
00:48:33,280 --> 00:48:36,280
But like. It's mostly keep those Linux guys out.

618
00:48:36,280 --> 00:48:39,280
Yeah. Yeah.

619
00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:42,280
And I don't think it like has to always be this way.

620
00:48:42,280 --> 00:48:45,280
I absolutely definitely think there is a path to redemption for Windows.

621
00:48:45,280 --> 00:48:49,280
I just don't think they're going to take it. That's why I'm like so frustrated.

622
00:48:49,280 --> 00:48:55,280
And it's been so long of being very sure they're not going to take it that it's just like, all right.

623
00:48:55,280 --> 00:48:59,280
I just don't know why it'd be, it'd be interesting to sit in the board room.

624
00:48:59,280 --> 00:49:02,280
And my, sorry. No, go ahead.

625
00:49:02,280 --> 00:49:08,280
My completely ignorant naive opinion is that it would be so easy to make it not trash.

626
00:49:08,280 --> 00:49:14,280
I don't think it would take that much work to make it not trash genuinely because like,

627
00:49:14,280 --> 00:49:18,280
there are a lot of things in my opinion that Windows could do that would make it cool and

628
00:49:18,280 --> 00:49:22,280
interesting. And they don't. That's a whole other question.

629
00:49:22,280 --> 00:49:27,280
The thing that bothers me most is the things that they actively do that actively make it

630
00:49:27,280 --> 00:49:29,280
bad or worse.

631
00:49:30,280 --> 00:49:36,280
Like if I, if I have purchased my Windows, I don't want freaking ads.

632
00:49:36,280 --> 00:49:39,280
Right. Ever. Any amount.

633
00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:43,280
Go away. Like just, there's certain things that are like my goodness.

634
00:49:43,280 --> 00:49:48,280
And we know that they've been rather okay with Windows piracy for like a long time.

635
00:49:48,280 --> 00:49:51,280
Yep. So if you're going to do that, just put ads in those versions.

636
00:49:51,280 --> 00:49:55,280
Right. Whatever. But I bought it.

637
00:49:55,280 --> 00:50:00,280
Go away. Like you just mentioned it barely matters anymore.

638
00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:03,280
I agree. So get out of my way.

639
00:50:03,280 --> 00:50:11,280
Don't just like put all this junk there all the time. Don't make search bad or make it an easy toggle and never turn it back on if I turn it off.

640
00:50:11,280 --> 00:50:18,280
No questions. If I'm like, you know what, I kind of like just using my start for search and for local

641
00:50:18,280 --> 00:50:21,280
files. But if you did, sure.

642
00:50:21,280 --> 00:50:24,280
Yeah. Then you can leave that on. There's no problem.

643
00:50:24,280 --> 00:50:28,280
Don't bury it in a reg edit and don't reset it every once in a while.

644
00:50:28,280 --> 00:50:34,280
Remember when like media player was pretty cool media player used to be sick.

645
00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:42,280
The new one is so annoying. Do you remember when the ability to view photos within Windows wasn't just a trash experience?

646
00:50:42,280 --> 00:50:46,280
They have this new. What is it called? Why is this pop up coming up?

647
00:50:46,280 --> 00:50:49,280
Go away. Where's the X?

648
00:50:49,280 --> 00:50:52,280
Where's the exact socks so much?

649
00:50:52,280 --> 00:50:59,280
This is such a terrible experience. Any window that doesn't have an X in the top right should be banned.

650
00:50:59,280 --> 00:51:02,280
Yeah. By law. Yeah.

651
00:51:02,280 --> 00:51:08,280
I don't want next. I don't want anything. I want this to get out of my way because I'm using my computer.

652
00:51:08,280 --> 00:51:12,280
I hate the new photos app. I hate the new video playing app.

653
00:51:12,280 --> 00:51:15,280
I actually did kind of like old like Windows media player classic.

654
00:51:15,280 --> 00:51:19,280
I know it was like more based to use VLC or whatever else, but I liked Windows media

655
00:51:19,280 --> 00:51:25,280
player classic. Why did this open in a new thing?

656
00:51:25,280 --> 00:51:28,280
Yeah.

657
00:51:28,280 --> 00:51:33,280
It's wack. They have clip champ now. Is it at least easy to just quickly crop something now?

658
00:51:33,280 --> 00:51:38,280
Because that used to drive me absolutely crazy is that let's see.

659
00:51:38,280 --> 00:51:41,280
No. Hold on. Edit.

660
00:51:41,280 --> 00:51:44,280
Resize. Is this going to open in yet another window? Okay.

661
00:51:44,280 --> 00:51:47,280
Here we go. Okay. Yeah.

662
00:51:47,280 --> 00:51:53,280
There's a lot of things in here now. How do I apply it?

663
00:51:53,280 --> 00:51:57,280
Why is this? What is all this AI crap?

664
00:51:57,280 --> 00:52:02,280
Okay. Save. So wait, did I?

665
00:52:02,280 --> 00:52:05,280
Okay. Is it? Okay.

666
00:52:05,280 --> 00:52:08,280
I can't just, I can't just apply it. Dude, I don't know.

667
00:52:08,280 --> 00:52:11,280
Maybe I'm missing something here, but like. This part's whatever.

668
00:52:11,280 --> 00:52:14,280
Let's just getting used to how this app works. I hope.

669
00:52:14,280 --> 00:52:16,280
You think so? I hope.

670
00:52:17,280 --> 00:52:23,280
I don't know, man. When I, I don't know why apply buttons went out of fashion.

671
00:52:23,280 --> 00:52:26,280
I suspect if you just saved it, it would just be that. Yeah, it will.

672
00:52:26,280 --> 00:52:29,280
No, no, no, no. I don't, I don't doubt that. I don't doubt that.

673
00:52:29,280 --> 00:52:32,280
I just, I don't know, man. I just, I like. Sure.

674
00:52:32,280 --> 00:52:35,280
I like being able to apply a change. I just know it's done.

675
00:52:35,280 --> 00:52:39,280
And then seeing that it is done. It just doesn't seem.

676
00:52:39,280 --> 00:52:43,280
This is better than it was for a long time, man. The stupid clip champ on your computer.

677
00:52:43,280 --> 00:52:46,280
I do have clip champ. I mean, it comes installed on my computer.

678
00:52:46,280 --> 00:52:47,280
Piss is me.

679
00:52:50,280 --> 00:52:54,280
What is it? Is it worse than Windows movie maker? I mean, Windows movie maker is kind of a piece of junk.

680
00:52:54,280 --> 00:52:57,280
Windows movie maker better. Apparently mine doesn't even have clip champ.

681
00:52:57,280 --> 00:53:01,280
Oh, I have clip champ. I can open up clip champ. I probably uninstalled it.

682
00:53:01,280 --> 00:53:04,280
I may have done a pass and like. Sure.

683
00:53:04,280 --> 00:53:07,280
I always do. Oh my God. Why do I have to sign in?

684
00:53:07,280 --> 00:53:09,280
Done immediately. Piss.

685
00:53:10,280 --> 00:53:13,280
This is my point. What are you talking about?

686
00:53:14,280 --> 00:53:17,280
I want to edit a video.

687
00:53:17,280 --> 00:53:20,280
I don't need to log into your stupid thing.

688
00:53:20,280 --> 00:53:23,280
I need a timeline. I need to put the video on it.

689
00:53:23,280 --> 00:53:26,280
Maybe the video has some audio. Great.

690
00:53:26,280 --> 00:53:29,280
There should be a timeline for the audio. If not, I can put my own audio there.

691
00:53:29,280 --> 00:53:32,280
You had Windows movie maker.

692
00:53:32,280 --> 00:53:37,280
Tons of people actually cut their teeth on editing videos with Windows movie maker.

693
00:53:37,280 --> 00:53:40,280
It was kind of rough. Hold on. They could have just made the experience better.

694
00:53:40,280 --> 00:53:44,280
No, no, no, no. Are you wanting to sign in with Google or email?

695
00:53:47,280 --> 00:53:51,280
Would that make it better? Just stop.

696
00:53:51,280 --> 00:53:56,280
Oh my God. They're differentiating factor for Microsoft.

697
00:53:56,280 --> 00:53:59,280
Seems to be right now that they're pushing the apps.

698
00:53:59,280 --> 00:54:06,280
The negative thing they're doing towards Linux is that there's no native from vendor

699
00:54:06,280 --> 00:54:10,280
teams app. I don't think you can do Office 365 natively on Linux.

700
00:54:10,280 --> 00:54:14,280
Not sure. I just don't think so. Or at least not easily.

701
00:54:14,280 --> 00:54:20,280
Okay. Make your video editor at least fine.

702
00:54:20,280 --> 00:54:26,280
They've retired the official native teams app for Linux in late 2022 according to AI

703
00:54:26,280 --> 00:54:30,280
overview. You have to use this other one. It has a bunch of issues.

704
00:54:30,280 --> 00:54:34,280
It is what it is. I appreciate that somebody made one at all.

705
00:54:34,280 --> 00:54:37,280
It's far from perfect. Okay.

706
00:54:37,280 --> 00:54:40,280
This is also on Q&A on Microsoft.

707
00:54:40,280 --> 00:54:44,280
It might be far from perfect because they haven't really had that much time because

708
00:54:44,280 --> 00:54:51,280
that happened not that long ago. But it's just like there's all these things where like if the, if the, I never hear those

709
00:54:51,280 --> 00:54:56,280
types of complaints from Apple people. I hear other complaints, but I don't hear those types of complaints.

710
00:54:56,280 --> 00:55:01,280
Windows is so obsessed with constantly stopping you from doing the thing that you want to

711
00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:06,280
do. Like 2021 says, I miss when Windows let us set another media player as the default for

712
00:55:06,280 --> 00:55:09,640
every format. Now I have to do it per file type.

713
00:55:09,640 --> 00:55:14,680
Yeah. The change in the defaults is so annoying now, like it's just another like, why?

714
00:55:14,680 --> 00:55:20,200
And the, oh man, the one that really kills me is that wizard that comes up like every,

715
00:55:20,200 --> 00:55:23,360
I don't know, every three months, every six months, you know, the one I'm talking about

716
00:55:23,360 --> 00:55:30,920
where it looks like it formatted your computer. It makes you go through the Ubi again and like dark patterns, the crap out of you trying

717
00:55:30,920 --> 00:55:36,200
to get you to change to edge intensely Luke yours, uh, did that when I turned it on this

718
00:55:36,200 --> 00:55:39,200
morning? Not surprised. Happens every once in a while.

719
00:55:39,200 --> 00:55:42,200
Freaking annoying. Never do that. Yeah.

720
00:55:42,200 --> 00:55:46,640
Just like there's so many things that it's like never under any circumstance do that. And then it's just everything on Windows.

721
00:55:46,640 --> 00:55:52,880
It's like, whoa, but then stopping doing that doesn't seem that hard, which I'm like, I

722
00:55:52,880 --> 00:55:56,600
don't know. Maybe if like the right person gets in the right position, they can fix it.

723
00:55:56,600 --> 00:56:07,120
It is definitely not unfixable. I just don't believe it's going to happen anymore because it's been so long of just

724
00:56:07,120 --> 00:56:12,280
constantly trending in this direction. A deduct says you can turn that off and that's cool.

725
00:56:12,280 --> 00:56:16,280
I actually didn't know that because from my understanding, it happens when you apply a

726
00:56:16,280 --> 00:56:19,360
major update. So I just assumed that it was re enabling itself.

727
00:56:19,360 --> 00:56:25,040
Uh, so I didn't know that that's good to know, but also I shouldn't have to.

728
00:56:25,040 --> 00:56:36,880
That should just not happen even once or, or if they must do it, a confirmation screen.

729
00:56:36,880 --> 00:56:43,520
Here's the way everything was set up because I mean nowadays, they still roll out things

730
00:56:43,520 --> 00:56:49,720
that would have been a surface pack or surface pack or that would have been like a major

731
00:56:49,720 --> 00:56:53,680
update as just part of like, you know, last Windows you'll ever need, whatever.

732
00:56:53,680 --> 00:56:57,360
Like they really do do major updates that would have previously been another version

733
00:56:57,360 --> 00:57:00,760
of Windows or they would have been a service pack or something.

734
00:57:00,760 --> 00:57:04,320
So I could see another version of Windows, but definitely service pack every once in

735
00:57:04,320 --> 00:57:14,320
a while. If they were to do something like that. I mean, Windows 10 changed a friggin lot from day one to sunset, like a lot under the

736
00:57:14,320 --> 00:57:17,880
hood. Um, I don't, I don't know. I leave that.

737
00:57:17,880 --> 00:57:21,800
That's why the fact that it's mostly under the hood is why I don't see another version

738
00:57:21,800 --> 00:57:24,960
of sure. But that's fair. But I also think you're right.

739
00:57:24,960 --> 00:57:29,280
But either way, if every once in a while they did a major one and they were like, yeah,

740
00:57:29,280 --> 00:57:33,640
this is basically like, you know, being on a new Windows and they were like, Hey, here's

741
00:57:33,640 --> 00:57:42,000
how you had everything set up before. You're still good with this. If I had to click one button, okay.

742
00:57:42,000 --> 00:57:46,080
It's also genuinely like, okay, confusing for a lot of people and they think their computer

743
00:57:46,080 --> 00:57:52,200
just like reset. Oh dude, my, my kids accidentally update our media, updated our media PC to Windows 11

744
00:57:52,240 --> 00:57:55,520
as of one of those prompts. Exactly. It's weird.

745
00:57:55,520 --> 00:57:59,960
Yeah. It's very unnatural. It feels like something is wrong with your computer.

746
00:57:59,960 --> 00:58:06,080
Like it was, it was a different one. It was the upgrade to Windows 11 prompts, but I think you get what I mean.

747
00:58:06,080 --> 00:58:11,600
Just like these full screen takeover your whole computer, dark patterned, like crazy.

748
00:58:11,600 --> 00:58:16,080
Definitely click the blue button. Like I came and I was like, Oh my God, we have no Wi-Fi drivers.

749
00:58:16,080 --> 00:58:19,600
Why do, why do we have no Wi-Fi drive? Why are we running Windows 11?

750
00:58:19,600 --> 00:58:25,720
Everything on this machine was working perfectly. Have a window pop up, make it full screen if you want, but leave your start menu so

751
00:58:25,720 --> 00:58:33,520
you can tell that the computer booted properly. Have like those, whatever they're called, there's emojis for them where like the streamers

752
00:58:33,520 --> 00:58:36,760
pop out, the party streamers pop out and there's like a Canon thing, whatever.

753
00:58:36,760 --> 00:58:41,640
Have those in the corner, have them like actually go off and animate. It's like, Oh, you got a big upgrade to Windows 11.

754
00:58:41,640 --> 00:58:44,640
Hooray. There's, here's some cool things. Do you still want your settings to be the same?

755
00:58:44,640 --> 00:58:48,200
This is what they were. Like now I'm like, Oh sick.

756
00:58:48,200 --> 00:58:53,080
This thing that I bought just got better instead of incredibly annoyed.

757
00:58:53,080 --> 00:59:00,440
Like it's, this is what I mean. The gap is not that hard to jump, but I don't trust they'll do it because they haven't done

758
00:59:00,440 --> 00:59:04,680
it in a decade, right? Which is too long.

759
00:59:04,680 --> 00:59:07,680
So I, I don't know. I, you heard it here first.

760
00:59:07,680 --> 00:59:14,240
We finally found what's too long for Luke.

761
00:59:14,240 --> 00:59:17,680
I just, I never thought it was going to happen.

762
00:59:17,680 --> 00:59:26,560
But it finally came. If they give me a little bit of hope, I can keep going, they just got to tease it a little

763
00:59:26,560 --> 00:59:29,560
bit. Yeah. Oh God.

764
00:59:29,560 --> 00:59:40,440
Anyway. I just hear Dan dying.

765
00:59:40,440 --> 00:59:43,720
Dan guide us, guide us back to the past. Yeah.

766
00:59:43,720 --> 00:59:51,040
So either, either they figured out, which I don't think they will, or I hope it dies. And then it gets easier to use for more people, the community grows and things keep getting

767
00:59:51,040 --> 00:59:54,540
better. Why not both? I'm down with both.

768
00:59:54,540 --> 00:59:57,540
It's not going to happen. Yeah. I know.

769
00:59:57,540 --> 00:59:58,540
I'm totally down with both though.

770
01:00:02,360 --> 01:00:07,840
I just don't anymore. I like Windows is fine. I'm so excited for my steam machine.

771
01:00:07,840 --> 01:00:11,080
Do you know about my steam machine? Not at all.

772
01:00:11,080 --> 01:00:16,360
Do you remember the very low number of steam?

773
01:00:16,360 --> 01:00:19,560
Like I remember seeing all of them on one table at CES.

774
01:00:19,560 --> 01:00:22,560
Built by valve. Yeah. No, no, no.

775
01:00:22,560 --> 01:00:27,280
Not the like OEM, like stupid alienware ones or whatever. Do you remember the valve steam machine?

776
01:00:27,280 --> 01:00:30,720
The like reference design? I remember it. I don't think I got to see that in person.

777
01:00:30,720 --> 01:00:34,920
I just saw the, the vendor ones.

778
01:00:34,920 --> 01:00:38,080
Steam machine. Here we go.

779
01:00:38,080 --> 01:00:42,440
Images. I'm talking about this one.

780
01:00:42,440 --> 01:00:45,520
Oh yeah. No, I remember it for sure.

781
01:00:45,520 --> 01:00:48,960
I just haven't seen it in person. I got one. You got one.

782
01:00:48,960 --> 01:00:52,400
That's actually cool. I never got one back then. I wasn't cool enough or important enough.

783
01:00:52,400 --> 01:00:56,960
Does it like boot into an environment? I mean, oh, I don't know.

784
01:00:56,960 --> 01:01:00,680
I don't think the storage is still in it or anything. I can go get it. You want to see it?

785
01:01:00,680 --> 01:01:03,680
Yeah. Okay. All right.

786
01:01:03,680 --> 01:01:06,680
Install the people. Okay. Do a sponsor.

787
01:01:06,680 --> 01:01:09,680
Do a sponsor spot. I always have to do it. Sure.

788
01:01:09,880 --> 01:01:15,280
Are you ready, Dan? Yeah. That's the first time I've ever been in.

789
01:01:15,280 --> 01:01:18,280
You are, are you ready for Vessi? Do you want to do that first? Yeah.

790
01:01:18,280 --> 01:01:21,280
You just do it. Normally people just start. Do I just, I just start talking?

791
01:01:21,280 --> 01:01:24,280
Yeah. People. Your job sounds so hard.

792
01:01:24,280 --> 01:01:30,880
That's tough. Okay. It's spooky season now, but one thing you don't have to be scared of is the rain.

793
01:01:30,880 --> 01:01:34,320
For the whole month of October, we're teaming up with Vessi to bring you a frighteningly

794
01:01:34,320 --> 01:01:41,480
huge giveaway. Each of the seven available prize packs contains a pair of their iconic shoes made for lightweight,

795
01:01:41,480 --> 01:01:46,080
patented material called DynaTex.

796
01:01:46,080 --> 01:01:51,080
DynaTex that's meant to keep moisture from seeping in while expelling sweat and heat.

797
01:01:51,080 --> 01:01:56,680
There will be some CW merch in each prize like our LTD lanyards and our commuter backpack.

798
01:01:56,680 --> 01:02:02,880
Well, that's pretty big. You can even score some handy tech like a pair of Sony XM6 headphones.

799
01:02:02,880 --> 01:02:07,520
Entering is easy. Go to Vessi.com slash LMG and sign up using your email.

804
01:02:27,720 --> 01:02:33,760
Proton unlike the rain, you know something you should be scared of emails.

805
01:02:34,640 --> 01:02:40,080
I am your preferred email platform might not be protecting your messages as well as

806
01:02:40,080 --> 01:02:44,380
you'd think. Enter proton mail and it's end to end encryption.

807
01:02:44,380 --> 01:02:48,560
It's so secure only you and your recipients can access your mail.

808
01:02:48,560 --> 01:02:55,600
Not even proton has visibility. They also have other security features designed to help lock your info down like advanced

809
01:02:55,600 --> 01:03:00,200
phishing protection, tracker blocking, email aliases and more.

810
01:03:00,200 --> 01:03:03,360
And if you think switching over will be a hassle, their migration tool can transfer

811
01:03:03,360 --> 01:03:06,840
emails, calendars, contacts with just a few clicks.

812
01:03:06,840 --> 01:03:12,160
So sign up for free today by clicking our link in the description or by going to proton.me

813
01:03:12,160 --> 01:03:17,280
slash WAN. WAN. Nicely done.

814
01:03:17,280 --> 01:03:21,280
I'm back. Let's see it.

815
01:03:21,280 --> 01:03:24,280
Okay. Well, there's some old ports. Oh, hold on.

816
01:03:24,280 --> 01:03:29,280
That's it. I'm peeking. I don't have pants on.

817
01:03:29,280 --> 01:03:38,800
I'm gonna make a, not a joke.

818
01:03:38,800 --> 01:03:43,000
That is actually way bigger than I was expecting it to be.

819
01:03:43,000 --> 01:03:46,800
I don't know how to make that not sexual.

820
01:03:46,800 --> 01:03:49,800
Oh, it's going to be. But I thought it was like NVIDIA Shield size.

821
01:03:49,800 --> 01:03:53,560
So it's got like a, it's got like a brushed. That is handmade, isn't it?

822
01:03:53,560 --> 01:03:58,120
Plastic front. Unfortunately, it's been through some hard times.

823
01:03:58,120 --> 01:04:02,000
So this little spot on the front is, is dented.

824
01:04:02,000 --> 01:04:08,800
I'm afraid all ventilation down this side, all ventilation down this side.

825
01:04:08,800 --> 01:04:11,960
I believe the top too. Yeah.

826
01:04:11,960 --> 01:04:19,480
Tons of ventilation. It was a different time and these vent holes are for, you can actually see here for the

827
01:04:19,480 --> 01:04:23,840
CPU socket or for the CPU area.

828
01:04:23,840 --> 01:04:31,760
All those ports on the GPU. They're above the socket, which means that the GPU is actually kind of going to starve

829
01:04:31,760 --> 01:04:37,480
for airflow. So I think there's going to be some necessary modifications in order to put a more, I don't

830
01:04:37,480 --> 01:04:42,960
remember that card having a yellow modern system here, Zotac probably would be my guess.

831
01:04:42,960 --> 01:04:48,040
And then yeah, to Luke's point, the back, this must be the original hardware that was

832
01:04:48,040 --> 01:04:54,240
in it. I don't know that for sure, but it's, it's, it's gotta be.

833
01:04:54,240 --> 01:05:00,840
And then my understanding is that this is not like damage that happened at some point.

834
01:05:00,840 --> 01:05:06,560
I think this was how they marked the serial of which one it was.

835
01:05:06,560 --> 01:05:11,320
So there's, there's 300 holes here.

836
01:05:11,320 --> 01:05:15,400
And did, how many units did they make? Did they make 300 units?

837
01:05:15,400 --> 01:05:22,200
I actually, I actually don't know how many they made. John Luke in full plane chat said, careful, the drilled hole tells valve, which serial

838
01:05:22,200 --> 01:05:25,200
number you have. Oh, okay. Yeah.

839
01:05:25,200 --> 01:05:30,920
Were you supposed to show that? Well, I, Val didn't send it to me, right?

840
01:05:30,920 --> 01:05:35,400
But did the person who sent it to you, could they, no, it ended up in like a junk shop

841
01:05:35,400 --> 01:05:38,400
or something. Oh, okay. Yeah.

842
01:05:38,400 --> 01:05:42,800
I mean, dude, this was, for Val to still be mad about a system they sent out 12 years

843
01:05:42,800 --> 01:05:46,440
ago, I think is probably pretty unlikely. Yeah.

844
01:05:46,440 --> 01:05:51,480
You know, you never know. There's an angle on there that looks rough.

845
01:05:51,480 --> 01:05:55,000
Yeah. Also, should we try to open it? Should we open it?

846
01:05:55,000 --> 01:05:58,000
Yeah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. I think we should open it.

847
01:05:58,000 --> 01:06:01,000
Oh, okay. That just started going. Right.

848
01:06:01,000 --> 01:06:04,000
That was not that bad. All right. So there's the top.

849
01:06:04,000 --> 01:06:07,760
Looks a little... Hey, you were right about the brand. Something like that.

850
01:06:07,760 --> 01:06:11,840
The witch now? This is Zotac. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, for sure.

851
01:06:11,840 --> 01:06:23,480
And then yeah, here's the internals. So it's actually a really thoughtfully laid out case, uses PCI, like a hard PCIe riser.

852
01:06:23,480 --> 01:06:26,480
So it... Ugh. So it orients the card.

853
01:06:26,480 --> 01:06:29,480
That is really solid, actually. Yeah. No, it's pretty cool.

854
01:06:29,480 --> 01:06:33,280
So you have a hard riser coming out of here. Your card goes in right here.

855
01:06:33,280 --> 01:06:37,400
Your intake is like, oh my God, what were they thinking here?

856
01:06:37,400 --> 01:06:43,640
Because this side is vented, right? So theoretically, you're getting some air here, but absolutely nothing here.

857
01:06:43,640 --> 01:06:48,600
But they're using a blower style cooler so that at least it's taking that hot air and

858
01:06:48,600 --> 01:06:52,120
it's getting rid of it out the back of the system.

859
01:06:52,120 --> 01:06:56,480
But it doesn't really have an intake fan, right?

860
01:06:56,480 --> 01:07:00,440
Because your power supply, that'll draw air in that to remember this was the side that

861
01:07:00,440 --> 01:07:08,720
had the vents on the top, right? So that'll draw air in and then blow it out and we'll know the case doesn't have an air

862
01:07:08,840 --> 01:07:11,840
intake. Oh, the general case. Because this...

863
01:07:11,840 --> 01:07:14,840
Wow. That... That is loose.

864
01:07:14,840 --> 01:07:19,320
Yes. Okay. So this will draw some air in, but you can see it's all shrouded.

865
01:07:19,320 --> 01:07:22,760
Ooh, the fins on there, too. So it'll come right out here.

866
01:07:22,760 --> 01:07:25,760
So the... We have the fins on the CPU. Oh, yeah.

867
01:07:25,760 --> 01:07:28,800
They got a little mangled there.

868
01:07:28,800 --> 01:07:33,000
So both of these are drawing air in, but they're also exhausting it directly out.

869
01:07:33,000 --> 01:07:38,200
So... Oh man, it's really hard to hold stuff up when I'm here, it doesn't matter.

870
01:07:38,200 --> 01:07:44,800
So the case itself doesn't have a single intake that provides any fresh air to this GPU.

871
01:07:44,800 --> 01:07:51,960
Mm-hmm. Like there's... So it's negative air pressure because these are both in their own isolated airflow zones.

872
01:07:51,960 --> 01:07:55,720
And then this one has a fan here, right?

873
01:07:55,720 --> 01:08:03,320
That is exhausting, but it has... There's no equivalent air intake for the exhaust that is blowing out.

874
01:08:03,320 --> 01:08:08,120
It's got a spot for a two and a half inch SSD here, but pretty much the idea...

875
01:08:08,120 --> 01:08:17,240
What I've been waiting for for three and a half years is for Valve to follow through

876
01:08:17,240 --> 01:08:25,040
on the commitment they made when they launched the Steam Deck three and a half years ago

877
01:08:25,040 --> 01:08:30,920
to create Steam OS for desktop. Are you going to upgrade that machine and then install it on there?

878
01:08:30,920 --> 01:08:33,920
That's sick. And then this will be... I love that.

879
01:08:33,920 --> 01:08:36,920
This will be my living room console. That's fantastic. Could I ask?

880
01:08:37,520 --> 01:08:40,520
No, you can't have it. No? How much was it?

881
01:08:40,520 --> 01:08:46,520
Oh, I don't actually know. No, I think we found it in a junk pile.

882
01:08:46,520 --> 01:08:51,560
Oh, no way. Yeah, it ended up at a free geek equivalent or something, and I think someone offered

883
01:08:51,560 --> 01:08:55,320
to send it to us or something like that. I'm pretty sure we didn't pay for it. Wow.

884
01:08:55,320 --> 01:09:00,120
So in terms of buying stolen goods or whatever, no.

885
01:09:00,120 --> 01:09:04,520
We didn't go looking for someone's coveted intellectual property or anything like that.

886
01:09:04,520 --> 01:09:09,880
For sure. I mean, I'd be curious to know if there's any out there.

887
01:09:09,880 --> 01:09:14,880
So Valve Steam Machine.

888
01:09:14,880 --> 01:09:18,520
So they only sent this out to gaming press, I think.

889
01:09:18,520 --> 01:09:25,440
Oh, yeah. eBay has got nothing. They've got literal actual Steam machines.

890
01:09:25,440 --> 01:09:31,520
So sorry, you won't be finding one of those there.

891
01:09:31,520 --> 01:09:35,120
Claim that as your upgrade. Do you have the right? No, I don't think so.

892
01:09:35,120 --> 01:09:39,040
Unfortunately, that's not how the terms work.

893
01:09:39,040 --> 01:09:42,040
It's freaking cool, though. Oh. Is that a fan?

894
01:09:42,040 --> 01:09:47,800
No, it's not. Nope. It's just a little shrub.

895
01:09:47,800 --> 01:09:50,800
I mean, it's already prepaid. Yeah. And you're replacing all the hardware.

896
01:09:50,800 --> 01:09:53,800
It's probably fine. Yeah. I'm a dude.

897
01:09:53,800 --> 01:09:58,080
And then you refinish the case at all. So, okay. Are you going to leave some?

898
01:09:58,080 --> 01:10:05,040
That is a hard question. That's a tough one because the wanting a beautiful

899
01:10:05,800 --> 01:10:11,800
system in me would be like, yeah, you know what I really want to do is I want to do like,

900
01:10:11,800 --> 01:10:19,560
I want to do a cool color scheme. I want to pull out this internal mesh and then I want to paint that like an accent color

901
01:10:19,560 --> 01:10:23,320
and that'd be super cool and then I want to do this top like a whatever and then I want

902
01:10:23,320 --> 01:10:30,680
to do like a hand painted, you know, third color here, like a cool, like red or like

903
01:10:30,680 --> 01:10:33,680
a cyan. Yeah. Yeah.

904
01:10:33,680 --> 01:10:36,840
Yeah. It would look sick actually. Right.

905
01:10:36,840 --> 01:10:41,000
Like I just, I wanted, but then it feels wrong, right?

906
01:10:41,000 --> 01:10:44,000
Yeah. Doesn't it feel a little wrong to paint it?

907
01:10:44,000 --> 01:10:48,760
It kind of does. I'm unsure, but I think making significant changes, yes, but what if you like cleaned

908
01:10:48,760 --> 01:10:52,880
up some of the dings? You wouldn't be able to do that though.

909
01:10:52,880 --> 01:10:56,680
Without like painting it. This is anodized aluminum. Yeah.

910
01:10:56,680 --> 01:11:01,440
Okay. So, you would have to, you'd have to, you'd have to strip the anodization, which for

911
01:11:01,440 --> 01:11:04,640
my understanding. Deep rounder case bluster makes me sad actually. Yeah.

912
01:11:04,640 --> 01:11:08,960
It is un... You're not restoring at that point.

913
01:11:08,960 --> 01:11:12,880
You're kind of modifying. What if you painted it the same?

914
01:11:12,880 --> 01:11:17,800
No, it can be challenging. Removing anodization can be quite challenging.

915
01:11:17,800 --> 01:11:24,000
Got it. Someone said you have a CNC machine, make a new hood, I mean I could, but that's not...

916
01:11:24,000 --> 01:11:27,000
No, yeah. You don't want to make a new hood. It has to be the same one.

917
01:11:27,000 --> 01:11:30,000
Yeah. For sure. That's, that's for sure.

918
01:11:30,000 --> 01:11:35,040
I'm going to do like a super cool color scheme though, like a baby blue and yellow or something

919
01:11:35,040 --> 01:11:38,440
for like... What if you have... Like a really out there color scheme.

920
01:11:38,440 --> 01:11:41,440
Do it as a wrap? You have two... Oh.

921
01:11:41,440 --> 01:11:44,440
You have two TVs. You have the upstairs and downstairs. What if you did...

922
01:11:44,440 --> 01:11:49,320
What if you recreated this and made it cool in the way that you would want and also had

923
01:11:49,320 --> 01:11:52,920
the OG one? What if you had two?

924
01:11:52,920 --> 01:11:56,360
I mean, I'll just have to brace myself for all of the...

925
01:11:56,360 --> 01:12:00,720
Number one Linus TechTips was relatable comments, but other than that, I guess I don't see a

926
01:12:00,720 --> 01:12:06,160
downside. It would be... Those comments are going to show up anyways.

927
01:12:06,160 --> 01:12:11,440
There's a lot of aspects of this that would be pretty untrivial to recreate.

928
01:12:11,440 --> 01:12:14,520
Like we basically have to...

929
01:12:14,520 --> 01:12:19,760
You could 3D print a lot of it, but like, I'm not going to commit to that.

930
01:12:19,760 --> 01:12:23,400
I'm definitely not going to commit to that. I wouldn't expect it to do right now either.

931
01:12:23,400 --> 01:12:29,520
It's just potentially an option. That's sick though. Does the ring around the power button light up?

932
01:12:29,520 --> 01:12:36,280
It looks like it did in the picture. I believe it does, but I don't think I've ever tried to power this one up.

933
01:12:36,280 --> 01:12:39,280
You should. We should do it right now. You want to do it right now?

934
01:12:39,280 --> 01:12:43,040
Let's do it right now. I mean, do you have a C13? We can try.

935
01:12:43,040 --> 01:12:48,520
I have no idea, man.

936
01:12:48,520 --> 01:12:54,160
Daniel Besser, I think Luke would like us to obtain a C13 power cable.

937
01:12:54,160 --> 01:12:59,160
He's on it. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah.

938
01:12:59,160 --> 01:13:04,640
Dan will have a way. I'm sure. Man, I wish the dings weren't in the front.

939
01:13:04,640 --> 01:13:08,120
All the dings are in the front. The back is... Okay, no.

940
01:13:08,120 --> 01:13:11,720
There's some pretty big dings in the back. Okay, the dings are everywhere. Dude, I'm so excited.

941
01:13:11,720 --> 01:13:15,760
It survived. It's so compact. It's so console-like.

942
01:13:15,760 --> 01:13:21,080
If Valve had just ponied up and they had done the same thing they did with the Steam

943
01:13:21,080 --> 01:13:24,400
Deck where they subsidized the hardware.

944
01:13:24,400 --> 01:13:28,720
I think we would have... I think we'd have a Steam desktop console.

945
01:13:28,720 --> 01:13:32,680
Yeah. Like, frickin... I mean, the software wasn't ready yet though.

946
01:13:32,680 --> 01:13:36,600
That's true. It was so far off. They waited for the right time, ultimately.

947
01:13:36,600 --> 01:13:40,800
Yeah. Letting them cook for longer was also good.

948
01:13:40,800 --> 01:13:45,720
It was a good thing. Thank you, Mr. Daniel Besser.

949
01:13:45,720 --> 01:13:48,720
Can we display... It is HDMI, right? Do you want to...?

950
01:13:48,720 --> 01:13:52,720
Oh, I mean, yeah, I guess. How would you use yours?

951
01:13:52,720 --> 01:13:55,720
Mine? No.

952
01:13:55,720 --> 01:13:58,720
Damn it. No.

953
01:13:58,720 --> 01:14:01,720
What a dick. Did the stream hear that?

954
01:14:01,720 --> 01:14:04,720
That was good. That was good. That was good.

955
01:14:04,720 --> 01:14:07,720
That was good. I can't... There you go.

956
01:14:07,720 --> 01:14:15,240
That was very good. USB? Does it make your mother uncomfortable that we talk about your penis so much on this

957
01:14:15,240 --> 01:14:19,240
show? Probably. I mean, she's seen it a thousand times already.

958
01:14:19,240 --> 01:14:22,240
I guess it doesn't really matter. Sorry.

959
01:14:22,240 --> 01:14:29,240
Not in, like, a weird way, you know, in, like, he was going to be all over himself, you

960
01:14:29,240 --> 01:14:33,240
know. I was going to say yours, too.

961
01:14:33,240 --> 01:14:38,240
Okay, let's try to turn it on.

962
01:14:38,240 --> 01:14:43,240
Yeah, good luck. There's no chicken.

963
01:14:43,240 --> 01:14:53,240
Yeah, the proximity to discussing people's parents and making seduction jokes is too close,

964
01:14:53,240 --> 01:14:56,240
Dan. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Too close.

965
01:14:56,240 --> 01:15:04,240
What's going on here? Well, I don't know. I pressed what I think is the power button, and nothing happened, sir.

966
01:15:04,240 --> 01:15:07,240
The banner, Dan. The banner?

967
01:15:07,240 --> 01:15:10,240
Sure. Oh. Oh, yeah, no, they can't...

968
01:15:10,240 --> 01:15:14,240
I'm working on it. There's not a whole lot to see that isn't happening.

969
01:15:14,240 --> 01:15:17,240
That was a very nimble and good save. Thank you.

970
01:15:17,240 --> 01:15:22,240
Did we try to bypass the Trump panel-headers? I mean, yeah, we could. I mean, how much troubleshooting do you want to do on the WAN Show?

971
01:15:22,240 --> 01:15:26,240
That's not what this show is. This is probably the best and most interesting part of the WAN Show so far.

972
01:15:26,240 --> 01:15:32,880
Okay. I'm not even... I think you might just be a bit of a Valve fanboy and a little bit extra excited right

973
01:15:32,880 --> 01:15:37,240
now. The 30% is a lot, okay? The 30% is a large amount.

974
01:15:38,240 --> 01:15:42,240
Dude, it's like buried in there.

975
01:15:42,240 --> 01:15:45,240
Bringa Studios video has info for us.

976
01:15:45,240 --> 01:15:48,240
I'm not going to be able to watch that right now.

977
01:15:48,240 --> 01:15:51,240
Is this power supply on? Is it outlet work?

978
01:15:51,240 --> 01:15:54,240
Oh, I don't know.

979
01:15:54,240 --> 01:15:57,240
I suspect the system is broken, you guys.

980
01:15:57,240 --> 01:16:01,240
I really don't. I also have to say, of course, Bringa Studios has a video on this.

981
01:16:01,240 --> 01:16:04,240
There's no power switch on the power supply, so...

982
01:16:04,240 --> 01:16:08,240
Yeah. Guys, I think he's dead, Jim.

983
01:16:08,240 --> 01:16:14,240
I think that the best course of action is for us to put new hardware in it and make

984
01:16:14,240 --> 01:16:18,240
us sick. Anyways, we don't have to, but...

985
01:16:18,240 --> 01:16:23,240
Sorry, what do you want me to do? You could bypass the pass through and plug directly into the power supply.

986
01:16:23,240 --> 01:16:26,240
And you could try to bridge the header just in case that's not working.

987
01:16:26,240 --> 01:16:30,240
I can't reach it. Look, the motherboard's completely covered, brother.

988
01:16:30,240 --> 01:16:36,240
I'm sure you have an LTTstore.com screwdriver readily accessible at all periods in time.

989
01:16:36,240 --> 01:16:41,240
Yes, I do. So you can't tell me a few little screws that are going to defeat the great line of Sebastian.

990
01:16:41,240 --> 01:16:44,240
Do you want me to troubleshoot it back here?

991
01:16:44,240 --> 01:16:51,240
We could also do that. We could continue the show, and Dan could solve the troubleshooting things.

992
01:16:51,240 --> 01:16:56,240
Oh, my God, you guys. I could just call Jordan, who is the writer for this project, and be like, hey, have you

993
01:16:56,240 --> 01:16:59,240
tested the system? Does it work?

994
01:16:59,240 --> 01:17:02,240
That would probably be easier. Okay, no, it is not that.

995
01:17:02,240 --> 01:17:05,240
That is not the problem. Okay, cool. One problem down.

996
01:17:05,240 --> 01:17:09,240
Oh, my God.

997
01:17:09,240 --> 01:17:13,240
It's good. It's good. You're killing me.

998
01:17:13,240 --> 01:17:16,240
We don't have to do it, but it's just, it's very interesting.

999
01:17:16,240 --> 01:17:20,240
For something we don't have to do, you're sure putting an awful lot of pressure to do it.

1000
01:17:20,240 --> 01:17:23,240
Do we really have to do anything?

1001
01:17:23,240 --> 01:17:28,240
What does that even mean? That means that we should do this.

1002
01:17:28,240 --> 01:17:37,240
Fine. We can go as far as bridging the power switch on the motherboard.

1003
01:17:37,240 --> 01:17:42,240
Are we passing it to Dan? Dan's going to have to do it, because we're going to have to do the lens show at some

1004
01:17:42,240 --> 01:17:45,240
point. Yeah, that's fine. All right.

1005
01:17:45,240 --> 01:17:50,240
Dan, come on. Okay. Oh, here it's going the wrong way.

1006
01:17:50,240 --> 01:17:53,240
I got it. Oh, knocked my mic twice there.

1007
01:17:53,240 --> 01:17:56,240
Sorry, people. Okay.

1008
01:17:56,240 --> 01:18:01,940
Now, Dan can't even do his job, which is about to get more difficult because we're about

1009
01:18:01,940 --> 01:18:06,360
to talk about the Creator Warehouse stuff.

1010
01:18:06,360 --> 01:18:11,840
This week, we have an exclusive Floatplane drop on LTTstore.com.

1011
01:18:11,840 --> 01:18:15,140
If you're a Floatplane subscriber, you already know that it's been Sarah Week featuring

1012
01:18:15,140 --> 01:18:19,240
content centering around our designer, Sarah.

1013
01:18:19,240 --> 01:18:24,440
Just today, we released her trip to Dinosaur Town, aka Drum Heller, where she visited the

1014
01:18:24,440 --> 01:18:27,440
Royal Tyrell Museum.

1015
01:18:27,440 --> 01:18:34,000
Point of clarification on that. Did LMG actually pay for her and Sammy to go to Drum Heller?

1016
01:18:34,000 --> 01:18:38,240
I think so. How did that work?

1017
01:18:38,240 --> 01:18:41,920
So that was the video budget.

1018
01:18:41,920 --> 01:18:45,520
So it seems to me...

1019
01:18:45,520 --> 01:18:48,680
So here it is.

1020
01:18:48,680 --> 01:18:51,680
Where was the thing with the... Okay.

1021
01:18:51,680 --> 01:18:57,640
Oh, yeah. It was in the trailer. So yeah, they just went to a dinosaur museum.

1022
01:18:57,640 --> 01:19:05,960
All right. Anywho, getting inspiration from the trip, she designed the Dinosaur T-shirt, exclusive

1023
01:19:05,960 --> 01:19:15,380
to our float goats. It's a retro rendition of a Gorgosaur fossil designed by the one and only, Sarah Butt.

1024
01:19:15,380 --> 01:19:20,320
It's available only while supplies last at LMG.gg slash dinosaur, so you can make sure

1025
01:19:20,320 --> 01:19:24,840
you subscribe over there and check it out.

1026
01:19:24,840 --> 01:19:28,200
Here it is. Well, this museum is huge.

1027
01:19:28,200 --> 01:19:33,840
Design a sore T-shirt. Also photo shoot with jungle.

1028
01:19:33,840 --> 01:19:37,520
This is great. Oh my God, Jamie, how is this guy...

1029
01:19:37,520 --> 01:19:41,680
Dude, I saw the photo earlier. He looks so good in this.

1030
01:19:41,680 --> 01:19:44,680
Seriously. It's fantastic. Seriously.

1031
01:19:44,680 --> 01:19:48,520
Dude, the fit is perfect. Amazing. Good trigger control.

1032
01:19:48,520 --> 01:19:51,760
Look at this. Look at this. Look.

1033
01:19:51,760 --> 01:19:58,360
Quality, quality photo. Incredible. You know, never explore the prehistoric jungle without your Apple Watch.

1034
01:19:58,360 --> 01:20:01,360
Yeah. You know what I'm saying? Why would you?

1035
01:20:01,360 --> 01:20:08,360
Why would you indeed? But that's not all. We're also offering everybody a chance to save this weekend with 10% off all digital

1036
01:20:08,360 --> 01:20:14,200
gift cards. So essentially, you can get 10% off pretty much everything on the store.

1037
01:20:14,200 --> 01:20:18,160
Grab one today at LMG.gg slash gift card.

1038
01:20:18,160 --> 01:20:23,500
Page not found. Hold on a second. Is that not real?

1039
01:20:23,500 --> 01:20:26,540
Luke, is that...

1040
01:20:26,540 --> 01:20:29,540
Are you... It worked for me.

1041
01:20:29,540 --> 01:20:34,340
Okay. So here's the U.S. site.

1042
01:20:34,340 --> 01:20:39,140
Select denomination. And what happens if I add it to cart?

1043
01:20:39,140 --> 01:20:44,740
Uh-huh. Okay. It is discounted by $10.

1044
01:20:44,740 --> 01:20:48,580
Oh, this is going to be a problem. Is it?

1045
01:20:48,580 --> 01:21:03,820
For us, because you can send a merch message by buying $100 for $90.

1046
01:21:03,820 --> 01:21:07,380
See I knew we were going to do a gift card discount promo.

1047
01:21:07,380 --> 01:21:17,780
I didn't think we were going to do it now before Black Friday.

1048
01:21:17,780 --> 01:21:22,140
Hold on a second. This may go away.

1049
01:21:22,140 --> 01:21:26,940
One moment, please. I need to make a call.

1050
01:21:26,940 --> 01:21:30,820
You probably shouldn't have said that. I didn't even think about that at all.

1051
01:21:30,820 --> 01:21:39,500
When's Black Friday? Not yet. I need to make a really quick call here.

1052
01:21:39,500 --> 01:21:43,900
Remember 28th. Oh, it's not for a while. That's not the point.

1053
01:21:43,900 --> 01:21:50,100
The point is that Black Friday will already be discounted. Hey, look, the only good thing about teams.

1054
01:21:50,100 --> 01:21:54,060
What? The song. Yeah, but that's just from Skype.

1055
01:21:54,060 --> 01:21:57,060
Uh-huh. They just remixed Skype. Uh-huh.

1056
01:21:57,060 --> 01:22:09,020
Okay, he's not picking up.

1057
01:22:09,020 --> 01:22:12,500
Hathos asks, Linus, can you use a gift card to buy a gift card?

1058
01:22:12,500 --> 01:22:18,980
If I buy a $100 gift card for $90, then use that $100 gift card to buy another $100 gift

1059
01:22:18,980 --> 01:22:22,140
card for $90. Did you guys think about that?

1060
01:22:22,140 --> 01:22:25,140
How would you do that? Hold on. How would you not do that?

1061
01:22:25,140 --> 01:22:28,260
Is that buying? Can I use that to buy another?

1062
01:22:28,260 --> 01:22:32,060
No, I don't think you can do that.

1063
01:22:32,060 --> 01:22:35,060
Yeah. Okay. Okay.

1064
01:22:35,060 --> 01:22:42,100
Okay. Do you want to do a topic really quick?

1065
01:22:42,700 --> 01:22:46,700
Sure. I just did to find out what's going on. Can I just do the other two sponsors, Dan?

1066
01:22:46,700 --> 01:22:49,700
No, no, no, no. We should do some topics.

1067
01:22:49,700 --> 01:22:53,580
Okay. Do you have any that I could do?

1068
01:22:53,580 --> 01:22:58,900
Yeah, we should do a couple of merge messages. Not directly for you.

1069
01:22:58,900 --> 01:23:02,020
If there's general ones, I can do those, or I can talk about...

1070
01:23:02,020 --> 01:23:07,660
We should explain merge messages. So the way to send a merge message is to add something to your card on lttstore.com.

1071
01:23:07,660 --> 01:23:13,180
Once you add something to your cart, say, for example, okay.

1072
01:23:13,180 --> 01:23:17,020
So once you add something to your cart, say, for example, one of our new t-shirt colors

1073
01:23:17,020 --> 01:23:22,660
available in long sleeve and short sleeve and available in regular and tall lengths.

1074
01:23:22,660 --> 01:23:26,380
That's right. Let's go. So you could get a tall, medium shirt.

1075
01:23:26,380 --> 01:23:29,540
My God, is this ever a lot of skews. Imagine it all.

1076
01:23:29,540 --> 01:23:33,860
Imagine all of these colors in different lengths, in different sizes, and imagine why...

1077
01:23:33,860 --> 01:23:37,820
Out of stock. Some of them are out of stock. It totally makes sense if you think about it.

1078
01:23:37,820 --> 01:23:41,780
Anyway, the point is you add that to your cart and you'll see the interface for merge

1079
01:23:41,780 --> 01:23:46,620
messages. You can either make it anonymous or you can show your first name and last initial.

1080
01:23:46,620 --> 01:23:52,780
You can leave a merge message for the show. It'll go to producer Dan, who is working on a computer and also will reply to your merge

1081
01:23:52,780 --> 01:23:59,620
message. Yeah, you can do both. We think merge messages are great because instead of just throwing money at your screen,

1082
01:23:59,620 --> 01:24:03,180
we don't... We don't really want your donations.

1083
01:24:03,180 --> 01:24:08,100
We would much rather that you just get some high-quality merchandise in the mail if you

1084
01:24:08,100 --> 01:24:13,500
want to support the show. So lttstore.com, go send a merge message.

1085
01:24:13,500 --> 01:24:17,300
Right. Well, we are right. Dan's going to have us reply to a couple of merge messages.

1086
01:24:17,300 --> 01:24:21,460
That's what happens when he curates them. This was the most disjointed merge message thing ever.

1087
01:24:21,460 --> 01:24:26,100
I really want to know what's going on with this gift card promo.

1088
01:24:26,100 --> 01:24:30,300
Make another call. I have one here for Luke.

1089
01:24:30,300 --> 01:24:36,940
So hi, LLD. Luke, did you get a chance to tour any ESA facilities in Germany?

1090
01:24:36,940 --> 01:24:42,660
They held their open days roughly at the same time as IFA.

1091
01:24:42,660 --> 01:24:48,460
I had no idea that was a thing. I had no idea they even ever did that, let alone that it happened while I was there.

1092
01:24:48,460 --> 01:24:52,340
That would have been sick. I would have 1,000% did that. Done that.

1093
01:24:52,340 --> 01:24:56,300
ESA is the European Space Agency, just in case people did not know.

1094
01:24:56,300 --> 01:25:00,300
Oh, no. Oh, no.

1095
01:25:01,300 --> 01:25:04,300
Oh, no. Just leave it.

1096
01:25:04,300 --> 01:25:08,300
Yeah, anyways, separate thing. But yeah, I know that's really cool.

1097
01:25:08,300 --> 01:25:11,300
I like that they do open days. It was really fun.

1098
01:25:11,300 --> 01:25:20,300
I don't think it got a crazy amount of views. I don't know if it was the title or something, but you guys should go watch a Linus video.

1099
01:25:20,300 --> 01:25:25,300
Did it end up doing better? Did I just bad talk it for no reason?

1100
01:25:25,300 --> 01:25:28,300
I did, but you should go watch it anyways because it deserves even more views.

1101
01:25:28,300 --> 01:25:33,300
The Canada's Las Vegas sphere is here and I game on it video is awesome.

1102
01:25:33,300 --> 01:25:40,300
There's a place up here called the H.R. McMillan Space Center or something, but there's a thing

1103
01:25:40,300 --> 01:25:44,300
that they call the Planetarium in there, which is this really, really cool theater.

1104
01:25:44,300 --> 01:25:51,300
Basically, everyone that lives here when they were a kid went to go see things on the Planetarium

1105
01:25:51,300 --> 01:25:55,300
and remembers that experience because it's just awesome.

1106
01:25:55,300 --> 01:25:59,300
They're doing an upgrade to it that looks amazing.

1107
01:25:59,300 --> 01:26:05,300
Linus got some really cool behind the scenes access to the hardware and how they're doing it

1108
01:26:05,300 --> 01:26:09,300
and some of the history of that place because it's genuinely really interesting.

1109
01:26:09,300 --> 01:26:14,300
They play a game on it and even just the act of playing the game on it is really interesting

1110
01:26:14,300 --> 01:26:17,300
because of how they have to warp it to make it work on that screen.

1111
01:26:17,300 --> 01:26:22,300
The screen having holes in it so you can hear acoustics through the screen.

1112
01:26:23,300 --> 01:26:27,300
It's a very interesting video. Space stuff is cool.

1113
01:26:27,300 --> 01:26:30,300
I don't really have anything else to say. I wish I knew that ESA thing.

1114
01:26:30,300 --> 01:26:33,300
I will keep that in mind in the future, but yeah.

1115
01:26:33,300 --> 01:26:39,300
Someone in chat, Cam Stabro said, I have very positive memories of H.R. McMillan.

1116
01:26:39,300 --> 01:26:46,300
Everyone I know that's been there when they were a kid has very positive memories of H.R. McMillan.

1117
01:26:46,300 --> 01:26:50,300
I cannot reach Dave. This is my fault.

1118
01:26:50,300 --> 01:26:59,300
He messaged me before the show today at yesterday.

1119
01:26:59,300 --> 01:27:02,300
Sounds good.

1120
01:27:02,300 --> 01:27:07,300
We are testing a 10% gift card promotion this weekend to see how it goes.

1121
01:27:09,300 --> 01:27:15,300
I had a full day and five and a half hours to say,

1122
01:27:15,300 --> 01:27:19,300
oh my God, no, not before Black Friday.

1123
01:27:22,300 --> 01:27:24,300
What are you changing, Dan?

1124
01:27:28,300 --> 01:27:30,300
Let's leave it till midnight.

1125
01:27:32,300 --> 01:27:38,300
Anyone who watches live or watches the VOD immediately, my loss is your gain.

1126
01:27:38,300 --> 01:27:41,300
If you buy gift cards with gift cards, we will cancel the whole thing.

1127
01:27:42,300 --> 01:27:45,300
That's how I was just going to message you.

1128
01:27:45,300 --> 01:27:52,300
Okay. We good? Do we have an accord? Please buy something profitable with it.

1129
01:27:52,300 --> 01:27:58,300
Because you could absolutely go from the cheapest gift card to the most expensive one.

1130
01:27:58,300 --> 01:28:02,300
I know. And multiples of the most expensive one. But if you do that, we will cancel your order.

1131
01:28:02,300 --> 01:28:11,300
So there's really no point doing that. Whereas if you do this now in good faith and order one gift card with the discount,

1132
01:28:11,300 --> 01:28:18,300
then we will leave it alone. We will honor it even though I think the timing for this is...

1133
01:28:18,300 --> 01:28:22,300
You just know there was some person sitting at their computer,

1134
01:28:22,300 --> 01:28:26,300
infinite money glitching gift cards that just went, oh.

1135
01:28:26,300 --> 01:28:30,300
Some person? Probably a bunch.

1136
01:28:30,300 --> 01:28:33,300
Guys, come on.

1137
01:28:33,300 --> 01:28:36,300
Yeah, wild.

1138
01:28:36,300 --> 01:28:41,300
4.5 said, what's profitable? I will show you how to tell.

1139
01:28:41,300 --> 01:28:50,300
So, okay. If something has a little discount, little nice discount, probably profitable.

1140
01:28:50,300 --> 01:28:56,300
If something has a... Let's see, do we still have the...

1141
01:28:56,300 --> 01:29:00,300
Oh, yeah, no, the Uber clearance stuff is gone.

1142
01:29:00,300 --> 01:29:07,300
So if something has an Uber clearance, like 50% plus discount, 40% discount on it,

1143
01:29:07,300 --> 01:29:11,300
probably it's a loss leader. That's generally the way to tell.

1144
01:29:11,300 --> 01:29:14,300
So just, yeah, do me a solid.

1145
01:29:14,300 --> 01:29:19,300
If you must have it before Black Friday, just don't just load up on loss leaders.

1146
01:29:19,300 --> 01:29:23,300
If you could just find something else as well, that would be swell.

1147
01:29:23,300 --> 01:29:27,300
So it sounds like they do block it, Dan, from what people in Full Play Chat are saying,

1148
01:29:27,300 --> 01:29:32,300
is you can't buy just a gift card with just a gift card.

1149
01:29:32,300 --> 01:29:36,300
Yeah, that wouldn't make any sense. But you can split the transaction.

1150
01:29:36,300 --> 01:29:39,300
You could buy just a gift card with a gift card and some money.

1151
01:29:39,300 --> 01:29:42,300
Oh, okay. Don't do that.

1152
01:29:42,300 --> 01:29:46,300
That's the gist that I'm getting. Okay.

1153
01:29:46,300 --> 01:29:50,300
Okay, cool.

1154
01:29:50,300 --> 01:29:53,300
Okay, cool. Good chat.

1155
01:29:53,300 --> 01:30:01,300
Style451 says, so the gift cards are profitable with their teeny, tiny 10% discount.

1156
01:30:01,300 --> 01:30:04,300
Not how that works.

1157
01:30:04,300 --> 01:30:07,300
Okay, oh my God.

1158
01:30:07,300 --> 01:30:11,300
Oh my God, there's 42 merge messages in the queue.

1159
01:30:11,300 --> 01:30:14,300
We have made a terrible mistake.

1160
01:30:14,300 --> 01:30:18,300
How are you doing, Dan? What have you done?

1161
01:30:18,300 --> 01:30:21,300
Technically, it wasn't him. Yeah.

1162
01:30:21,300 --> 01:30:24,300
Usually it is, and I'm down with that. Okay.

1163
01:30:24,300 --> 01:30:29,300
But this time. Oh, man. Okay, let's just do a topic.

1164
01:30:29,300 --> 01:30:33,300
Why don't we do a topic? Let's pick some good news.

1165
01:30:33,300 --> 01:30:38,300
Let's see. South Korean government loses a bunch of money in a fire or data in a fire.

1166
01:30:38,300 --> 01:30:41,300
Oh, no. Logitech bricks, it's pop smart home buttons.

1167
01:30:41,300 --> 01:30:44,300
No, no. Qualcomm acquires are doing it.

1168
01:30:44,300 --> 01:30:48,300
No. Ford is locking basic navigation behind a subscription.

1169
01:30:48,300 --> 01:30:51,300
No. Oh, Synology. Yeah.

1170
01:30:51,300 --> 01:30:55,300
Hey, this isn't someone that I was expecting to give good news on.

1171
01:30:55,300 --> 01:31:04,300
No. But on October 8th, Synology announced DSM 7.3 along with expanded storage flexibility,

1172
01:31:04,300 --> 01:31:09,300
which less storage flexibility is what that means.

1173
01:31:09,300 --> 01:31:15,300
Yeah. That means temporarily for a short period of time they had reduced storage flexibility

1174
01:31:15,300 --> 01:31:18,300
and they are back to status quo.

1175
01:31:18,300 --> 01:31:24,300
They have walked back the unpopular change that restricted the use of third party hard

1176
01:31:24,300 --> 01:31:29,300
drives that they made earlier this year. Literally, it didn't even last for a year.

1177
01:31:29,300 --> 01:31:34,300
Synology stated in their announcement, this provides users greater flexibility while Synology

1178
01:31:34,300 --> 01:31:38,300
continues to expand the lineup of officially verified drives that meet long term reliability

1179
01:31:38,300 --> 01:31:46,620
standards. By the way, full disclosure, I am invested in Ashtek, the makers of HexOS, who are making

1180
01:31:46,620 --> 01:31:52,060
an operating system that I hope will make Synology completely obsolete someday.

1181
01:31:52,060 --> 01:31:57,540
So far, they're not there yet, but they do have some big news today.

1182
01:31:57,540 --> 01:32:03,300
So it's actually kind of convenient that Synology gave us a reason to talk about them today.

1183
01:32:03,300 --> 01:32:06,300
Add closure, not disclosure. Am I right, audience?

1184
01:32:06,300 --> 01:32:13,020
What? Add closure? If I had full disclosure, I'm invested in HexOS also there, amazing, look at all these

1185
01:32:13,020 --> 01:32:17,660
cool features. That sounds like an add closure, not a disclosure.

1186
01:32:17,660 --> 01:32:20,660
You want me to hear something? Deal with it.

1187
01:32:20,660 --> 01:32:23,660
No. Okay. I don't know.

1188
01:32:23,660 --> 01:32:28,980
Do John text me? I'm not invested in either of these companies and what Synology did sucked and calling it

1189
01:32:28,980 --> 01:32:36,900
expanded storage flexibility is also just complete BS and makes me even not more upset

1190
01:32:36,900 --> 01:32:40,620
than the original status, but I am now still displeased.

1191
01:32:40,620 --> 01:32:43,620
Okay. Man. Dude.

1192
01:32:43,620 --> 01:32:46,820
And I have a Synology device at home. Okay.

1193
01:32:46,820 --> 01:32:49,820
What is going on? So I click the blog. I'm not aiming to not use it in the future.

1194
01:32:49,820 --> 01:32:54,260
Thinking I would find the update, but it's not in the blog. It's apparently in Docs.

1195
01:32:54,260 --> 01:32:57,260
What? What did? Okay.

1196
01:32:57,260 --> 01:33:01,860
Docs.hexos.com slash blog.

1197
01:33:01,860 --> 01:33:04,860
Do you have two blogs? Hey.

1198
01:33:04,860 --> 01:33:08,060
That's illegal. I don't think it's issued one blog.

1199
01:33:08,060 --> 01:33:11,540
They have two blogs. Don't do that.

1200
01:33:11,540 --> 01:33:14,860
Ash tech. Just okay. It doesn't matter.

1201
01:33:14,860 --> 01:33:19,540
The point is by enabling experimental features and settings preferences, you can now access

1202
01:33:19,540 --> 01:33:22,540
the custom script option for app installs.

1203
01:33:22,540 --> 01:33:28,180
This is one of the big features that I think is going to really set Hexos apart is easy

1204
01:33:28,180 --> 01:33:31,740
installation of curated apps.

1205
01:33:31,740 --> 01:33:35,460
From there, you can tweak existing install scripts, create entirely new ones and share

1206
01:33:35,460 --> 01:33:40,500
them with the community or submit them to the official Hexos curation templates.

1207
01:33:40,500 --> 01:33:46,140
This is pretty cool. They also launched their official documentation site, a centralized resources to bring together

1208
01:33:46,140 --> 01:33:50,300
getting started guides, feature documentation, troubleshooting help, et cetera.

1209
01:33:50,300 --> 01:33:57,020
First flight improvements. This was actually based on Robert Oaks, who's one of our editors.

1210
01:33:57,020 --> 01:34:02,620
We did his AMD ultimate tech upgrade very recently. I think it's coming, going up in the next few days.

1211
01:34:02,860 --> 01:34:06,660
I ran into some issues with the first flight, the sort of setup wizard.

1212
01:34:06,660 --> 01:34:09,660
I was like, hey, can you fix that? They did.

1213
01:34:09,660 --> 01:34:14,660
Pretty neat. Folder wizard, much like manual pool creation, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera.

1214
01:34:14,660 --> 01:34:24,060
Looking ahead. This is a big deal because one of the big criticisms of Hexos back when they first announced it

1215
01:34:24,060 --> 01:34:30,900
was, hey, why do I need an account and why do I need to access the control dashboard for

1216
01:34:30,900 --> 01:34:40,180
a NAS? My NAS with my hard drives, with my data on them through a cloud interface.

1217
01:34:40,180 --> 01:34:46,420
The Hexos team heard that feedback and said, hey, before we go out of beta, we will have

1218
01:34:46,420 --> 01:34:52,340
a local UI. There are reasons that we had to do it this way first, but before we go out of beta, we

1219
01:34:52,340 --> 01:34:55,420
will have a local UI and it's coming.

1220
01:34:55,420 --> 01:35:00,180
The command deck remains our primary interface for initial setup and for remote access, but

1221
01:35:00,180 --> 01:35:04,140
the local UI ensures you'll have access to the Hexos interface for system management

1222
01:35:04,140 --> 01:35:10,460
even during command deck maintenance Windows. This is a core component of our 1.0 release.

1223
01:35:10,460 --> 01:35:18,820
They're getting that going. John also asked me so very nicely, so this is the only reason that I'm going to, oh,

1224
01:35:18,820 --> 01:35:21,820
what? Got them. Well, whatever.

1225
01:35:21,820 --> 01:35:24,820
They're hiring. Got them. They're apparently hiring and I can't click this topic.

1226
01:35:24,820 --> 01:35:28,540
Get wrecked, John. That's what happens. No.

1227
01:35:28,540 --> 01:35:35,100
That's what happens. You ask me to shout something out and you have a permissions issue, you get nothing.

1228
01:35:35,100 --> 01:35:41,300
That's how it works. Sorry, John. All right, what else are we supposed to be talking about?

1229
01:35:41,300 --> 01:35:47,140
Okay, let's talk about Logitech breaking these PopSmart home buttons.

1230
01:35:47,140 --> 01:35:52,860
Breaking hate this stuff. And this is why it was so important to the community that, you know, Hexos not just

1231
01:35:52,860 --> 01:35:58,500
be like, yeah, no, you know, yeah, someday we'll have a local access option.

1232
01:35:58,500 --> 01:36:02,340
That is not okay. Because it's not okay. And they get it.

1233
01:36:02,340 --> 01:36:05,740
They 100% get it now. But this is why people were butthurt about it.

1234
01:36:05,740 --> 01:36:09,420
Because anything that relies on a cloud service doesn't belong to you.

1235
01:36:09,420 --> 01:36:17,620
Very appropriately butthurt. Logitech is emailing PopSmart home users to inform them that as of October 15th, five

1236
01:36:17,620 --> 01:36:25,060
days from now, all Logitech Pop buttons and their associated hubs will lose all functionality.

1237
01:36:25,060 --> 01:36:29,060
We talked about this last week. I don't think so.

1238
01:36:29,060 --> 01:36:35,940
Okay. Okay. Logitech emailed users on September 29th announcing the shutdown, giving users less

1239
01:36:35,940 --> 01:36:39,020
than three weeks to do anything about it.

1240
01:36:39,020 --> 01:36:45,660
As compensation, Logitech is offering a 15% discount coupon for select Logitech products

1241
01:36:45,660 --> 01:36:49,460
in the US. Can you think?

1242
01:36:49,460 --> 01:36:52,700
They're, they're a handyman just linked.

1243
01:36:52,700 --> 01:36:56,220
Their doc site has the cruise thing and you could read it.

1244
01:36:56,220 --> 01:37:00,340
No, I won't. They get nothing.

1245
01:37:00,340 --> 01:37:06,100
That's pretty good.

1246
01:37:06,100 --> 01:37:10,740
Can you think of a more insulting solution?

1247
01:37:10,740 --> 01:37:17,820
Remember, we just talked about, we just talked about how much of a discount, right, is probably

1248
01:37:17,820 --> 01:37:27,540
still profitable. Do you remember that conversation? So they are offering you an opportunity for them to profit on a new purchase after they

1249
01:37:27,540 --> 01:37:32,620
just fucked you.

1250
01:37:32,620 --> 01:37:35,620
What is this? Select products?

1251
01:37:35,620 --> 01:37:39,540
You're not even going to let me buy any product I want.

1252
01:37:39,540 --> 01:37:42,780
And why is it only in the US? Select products.

1253
01:37:42,780 --> 01:37:47,180
I didn't actually realize the select products. If it's not profitable at 15% off.

1254
01:37:47,180 --> 01:37:50,300
Dude, what even is this? Can't buy that one.

1255
01:37:50,300 --> 01:37:54,900
Like a 15% discount is not an apology.

1256
01:37:54,900 --> 01:38:00,860
That's like a, that's a retention marketing strategy.

1257
01:38:00,860 --> 01:38:04,300
That's like, that's a mail out coupon.

1258
01:38:04,300 --> 01:38:11,980
This is wild. The POP system was launched in August 2016 to allow users to trigger smart home actions,

1259
01:38:11,980 --> 01:38:17,980
Phillips Hue, Sonos, et cetera, with a starter kit priced at $100 and individual add-on buttons

1260
01:38:17,980 --> 01:38:25,860
at $40. Our discussion question is, how do you think Logitech could have better handled this situation

1261
01:38:25,860 --> 01:38:31,980
and what do you think is an appropriate end of life cycle for a piece of technology?

1262
01:38:31,980 --> 01:38:37,420
Well, yeah, they could have handled this better and the proper way to handle this is to open

1263
01:38:37,420 --> 01:38:43,020
source it. That's the only proper way to handle it at this point.

1264
01:38:44,020 --> 01:38:49,980
And if you don't want to, because you're still using that stuff, maintain it.

1265
01:38:49,980 --> 01:38:55,180
Yeah. Do you want to take one?

1266
01:38:55,180 --> 01:38:58,180
Sure. Ford. Do we do Ford?

1267
01:38:58,180 --> 01:39:01,180
No. I'm going to scroll up.

1268
01:39:01,180 --> 01:39:04,700
There's stuff up here, right? Discussion on settlements.

1269
01:39:04,700 --> 01:39:07,700
You want to do that? Yeah, we could do that. Sure.

1270
01:39:07,700 --> 01:39:16,820
Discussion on settlements. Week on the LTT Reddit, a fan posted a story about how they received $1 of credit for a

1271
01:39:16,820 --> 01:39:20,900
parking app that had data leak back into 2021.

1272
01:39:20,900 --> 01:39:29,100
In total, the attorneys for the case were paid $6.2 million, seven class reps received

1273
01:39:29,100 --> 01:39:38,220
$5K each, and the rest of the $31 million was paid out in $1 credits to the customers.

1274
01:39:38,740 --> 01:39:46,740
But wait, there's more. The credit is actually $0.25 that has to be used four times across four purchases.

1275
01:39:48,740 --> 01:39:53,540
The notice of this compensation also came with notes about data security improvements,

1276
01:39:53,540 --> 01:39:58,780
but ultimately stated that the company, Park Mobile, was never found liable for anything.

1277
01:39:58,780 --> 01:40:03,380
Rather, the settlement was reached to allow the company to continue focusing on providing

1278
01:40:03,380 --> 01:40:12,380
excellent service for its customers. If people don't claim credits or money or whatever it is from class action suits, what

1279
01:40:12,380 --> 01:40:15,460
happens to the money? I'll be honest with you.

1280
01:40:15,460 --> 01:40:22,140
I don't know. I assume the lawyers figure that out, so I assume it's helpful to the lawyers.

1281
01:40:22,140 --> 01:40:26,900
I literally do not know that, though.

1282
01:40:26,900 --> 01:40:32,540
Not legal advice, unbelievable.

1283
01:40:32,540 --> 01:40:36,420
Is it even worth the company to give out $1 to its customers?

1284
01:40:36,420 --> 01:40:39,780
What's the point if they claim they aren't liable?

1285
01:40:39,780 --> 01:40:43,660
Well, the point is that the lawyers get paid.

1286
01:40:43,660 --> 01:40:49,300
What's the point to the company, though, if the company is saying that they're not liable?

1287
01:40:49,300 --> 01:40:53,780
If they just want the suit end because they were spending so much money on legal?

1288
01:40:53,780 --> 01:41:00,700
It just ends it. That's the point of any legal settlement is you either get so sick of litigating it

1289
01:41:00,700 --> 01:41:05,980
and everyone's tired of it, so you just reach a settlement.

1290
01:41:05,980 --> 01:41:10,500
Wanting to avoid a legal precedent is another reason that companies will often try to settle

1291
01:41:10,500 --> 01:41:16,180
because if it goes to full trial, then now it's legal precedent.

1292
01:41:16,180 --> 01:41:20,300
Now, it could impact future cases, whereas a settlement can't.

1293
01:41:20,300 --> 01:41:25,060
You might settle, and part of your condition for settling might be no admission of wrong

1294
01:41:25,060 --> 01:41:30,780
doing, whereas if you don't settle and, again, it goes to a full trial, then you will have

1295
01:41:30,780 --> 01:41:37,180
to admit wrong doing. There's a lot of different reasons that you might want to settle, for sure.

1296
01:41:37,180 --> 01:41:41,700
If you think it's going to end up costing you even more, then you might want to settle.

1297
01:41:41,700 --> 01:41:46,420
There's at least four reasons. It's interesting that it's a credit for their own service.

1298
01:41:46,420 --> 01:41:50,500
I know, right? I'm assuming that they make more than $0.25 per transaction.

1299
01:41:50,500 --> 01:41:55,100
I would think so on parking. So again, it's just a profitable discount.

1300
01:41:55,100 --> 01:42:04,980
It's not. The fact that they make you spread a $1 credit across four purchases is all the proof in

1301
01:42:04,980 --> 01:42:11,060
the world that you could possibly need, that the lawyers negotiating this on behalf of

1302
01:42:11,060 --> 01:42:16,940
the people whose data was breached, right?

1303
01:42:16,940 --> 01:42:23,420
Do not care about any kind of justice.

1304
01:42:23,420 --> 01:42:28,860
Data breach stuff like this is really interesting, though, because this genuinely happens all

1305
01:42:28,860 --> 01:42:33,500
the time, and most of them don't go to class actions.

1306
01:42:33,500 --> 01:42:38,100
So that's, yeah, what does that even mean?

1307
01:42:38,100 --> 01:42:44,260
I used to check how I've been pwned all the time, not to check my emails if I go pwn,

1308
01:42:44,260 --> 01:42:49,180
but just to see what's going on, and I almost don't even bother anymore because it's just

1309
01:42:49,180 --> 01:43:03,220
constant. Look at these stats, dude, 15.11 billion pwned accounts.

1310
01:43:03,220 --> 01:43:09,140
Nice. Nice sort by breach date.

1311
01:43:09,140 --> 01:43:15,700
There we go. Oh, look at all those from 2025. Look at this scrollable list from 2025.

1312
01:43:15,700 --> 01:43:19,420
This stuff is just all of the way, when does it, there we go.

1313
01:43:19,420 --> 01:43:24,900
It stops there finally. Floatplane chats having a field day with this.

1314
01:43:24,900 --> 01:43:31,660
Donut711 says, I got charged a 35 cent transaction fee in this app on free parking the other

1315
01:43:31,660 --> 01:43:36,900
day. So this is great.

1316
01:43:36,900 --> 01:43:40,580
MavsGuy842 says, the lawyers should get paid an app credit too.

1317
01:43:40,580 --> 01:43:44,740
Yeah, they should have gotten $6.2 million in parking credit.

1318
01:43:44,740 --> 01:43:50,580
Rightly, if it's good enough for the people whose data was stolen, why isn't it good enough

1319
01:43:50,580 --> 01:43:57,820
for the lawyers? I understand the lawyers got to make money in these situations, $6.2 million is crazy,

1320
01:43:57,820 --> 01:44:01,820
but then also how many of them were there and how long did they work it and stuff like

1321
01:44:01,820 --> 01:44:05,540
that. It happened back in 2021, right?

1322
01:44:05,540 --> 01:44:10,300
So like, I don't know, but then the payout is just so lame.

1323
01:44:10,300 --> 01:44:16,580
Yeah, and I get that stuff like this is supposed to be punitive, right?

1324
01:44:16,580 --> 01:44:26,540
But hold on a second, because they only actually paid $6.2 million plus another $35,000.

1325
01:44:26,540 --> 01:44:33,940
The rest of the $31 million was in $1 credits that have to be used over four times parking.

1326
01:44:33,940 --> 01:44:42,180
So that was, I guarantee you their margin on those, so what does that work out to?

1327
01:44:42,180 --> 01:44:57,180
So $31 million times four. So we're talking about 124 million parking instances at $0.25 discount each.

1328
01:44:57,180 --> 01:45:04,980
They're going to make more than $6.2 million if people actually redeem the $31 million.

1329
01:45:04,980 --> 01:45:08,860
So it's free real estate. Yeah, it really is.

1330
01:45:08,860 --> 01:45:13,820
I really wonder what percentage of class action payouts are actually redeemed.

1331
01:45:13,820 --> 01:45:22,260
I suspect it's surprisingly low because most of the time they're such low payouts.

1332
01:45:22,260 --> 01:45:25,340
This is a comically low one. I wouldn't bother for a dollar.

1333
01:45:25,340 --> 01:45:28,420
Exactly. So what an insane percentage of this.

1334
01:45:28,420 --> 01:45:34,060
Okay, here, actually, this is kind of an interesting conversation. I'd love for you guys to kind of participate in this too.

1335
01:45:34,060 --> 01:45:39,100
Give me your line, okay? It's a dollar, okay?

1336
01:45:39,100 --> 01:45:44,420
So whether it's an American bill or it's a Canadian coin, you know what?

1337
01:45:44,420 --> 01:45:47,700
Let's assume it's an American bill. It's an American dollar.

1338
01:45:47,700 --> 01:45:51,660
Okay, let's start with an easy one.

1339
01:45:51,660 --> 01:45:55,100
It's stuck to the bottom of your shoe. Do you pick it up?

1340
01:45:55,100 --> 01:45:58,100
Yeah. Okay, of course. You put it in your wallet.

1341
01:45:58,100 --> 01:46:00,100
Yeah. Okay.

1342
01:46:01,100 --> 01:46:09,740
Um, it is, you are walking down the sidewalk and it is on the grass to the side of the

1343
01:46:09,740 --> 01:46:12,740
sidewalk. For sure. Okay.

1344
01:46:12,740 --> 01:46:18,900
For sure. Okay. It is laying over, actually, no, here's an easier one.

1345
01:46:18,900 --> 01:46:24,620
It's in a tree and you have to pull yourself up a branch in order to reach it.

1346
01:46:24,620 --> 01:46:32,780
Definitely. Okay. It's on a storm drain, kind of hanging over one of the, one of the grates and it's wet.

1347
01:46:32,780 --> 01:46:41,940
Yes. Okay. It is on the floor of a bathroom.

1348
01:46:41,940 --> 01:46:44,940
It's American too, right? It escalated quickly. It's an American dollar.

1349
01:46:44,940 --> 01:46:47,940
So it's like dollar 40. Cloth, aren't they? It's a dollar 40.

1350
01:46:47,940 --> 01:46:50,940
Because the Canadian ones are plastic. They're cotton, baby. So they're cotton.

1351
01:46:50,940 --> 01:46:54,140
They're cotton, baby. So I want you guys, I want you guys participating.

1352
01:46:54,140 --> 01:46:57,300
I want you guys participating. I will leave the feces dollar.

1353
01:46:57,300 --> 01:47:01,740
Okay. What if it's just a urine dollar?

1354
01:47:01,740 --> 01:47:04,740
I would leave the urine dollar. It's a cotton bill.

1355
01:47:04,740 --> 01:47:08,300
Let's say it's not, okay, hold on. Oh, we're going to find his line. We're going to find his line.

1356
01:47:08,300 --> 01:47:11,300
We're going to find his line. It's not near the urinal. Okay.

1357
01:47:11,300 --> 01:47:15,860
It's by the door. It's by the door. I have seen what people do to bathrooms, brother.

1358
01:47:15,860 --> 01:47:18,860
Okay. Forget the bathroom. Forget the bathroom.

1359
01:47:18,860 --> 01:47:21,860
Okay. Okay. It is.

1360
01:47:21,860 --> 01:47:30,380
I'm leaving that one the heck alone. Okay. It's on the floor of a commercial kitchen.

1361
01:47:30,380 --> 01:47:36,460
Near where they cook. Man, it varies like a lot depending on the kitchen.

1362
01:47:36,460 --> 01:47:43,460
Church is chicken. No. I'll leave that one alone.

1363
01:47:43,460 --> 01:47:46,460
Okay. Okay. Hold on.

1364
01:47:46,460 --> 01:47:52,180
Hold on. Let me, let me try to think. I want to try and nail this down because the bathroom really did feel like a big escalation

1365
01:47:52,180 --> 01:47:55,180
out. It was pretty big. I was kind of hoping.

1366
01:47:55,180 --> 01:47:58,180
Oh. Okay. Okay.

1367
01:47:58,180 --> 01:48:01,180
Here's one. Yeah. It's kitchen.

1368
01:48:01,180 --> 01:48:04,180
Have you guys worked in commercial kitchens? There's a reason why they have so many rats. Anyways.

1369
01:48:04,180 --> 01:48:08,220
Okay. It's not a public bathroom now. It's the bathroom at your parents' house.

1370
01:48:08,220 --> 01:48:11,220
Oh, yeah. Sure. Okay.

1371
01:48:11,220 --> 01:48:14,220
So that's fine. Yeah. So that's the line then.

1372
01:48:14,220 --> 01:48:20,940
Okay. There's an enormous gap between most people's home bathrooms, let alone my parents, and

1373
01:48:20,940 --> 01:48:26,660
a public bathroom. Sure. Oh, that's some bad experiences on some recent trips.

1374
01:48:26,660 --> 01:48:29,660
Okay. Oh, here's an interesting one.

1375
01:48:29,660 --> 01:48:33,340
Okay. So back to the one that was on the grass.

1376
01:48:33,340 --> 01:48:37,180
And there's a dog turd near it.

1377
01:48:37,180 --> 01:48:40,260
Near it? Near it? Near it's fine.

1378
01:48:40,260 --> 01:48:43,620
But it's a windy.

1379
01:48:43,620 --> 01:48:47,980
Still probably fine. So you don't know for sure that it didn't touch the dog turd.

1380
01:48:47,980 --> 01:48:51,940
It's downwind of the dog turd, but not by much. Still probably okay.

1381
01:48:51,940 --> 01:48:56,780
There's no visible mark. So do you check it before you pick it up?

1382
01:48:56,780 --> 01:49:00,380
Yeah. But like as I'm walking up to it, I'm like, yeah. Okay.

1383
01:49:00,380 --> 01:49:03,580
So you intend to pick it up and you're going to look for a skid mark on your dollar bill?

1384
01:49:03,580 --> 01:49:06,580
Yeah. Okay. If there's a skid mark, that thing ain't moving.

1385
01:49:06,580 --> 01:49:09,580
Okay. Got it. Got it.

1386
01:49:09,580 --> 01:49:12,580
Got it. Got it. Okay.

1387
01:49:12,580 --> 01:49:17,060
I think we've found your line basically as long as it's clean. I was expecting you to do more on the like having to do work to get to it.

1388
01:49:17,060 --> 01:49:20,540
I was just going to keep saying, yeah. Yeah. I kind of figured I wasn't getting anywhere with that.

1389
01:49:20,620 --> 01:49:24,740
It just makes it a game. And then it's fun. It's not even about the dollar anymore.

1390
01:49:24,740 --> 01:49:27,940
It's just, okay. There's a goal. Can I accomplish goal?

1391
01:49:27,940 --> 01:49:30,940
Sure. That's the interest. So that, whatever.

1392
01:49:30,940 --> 01:49:33,980
When it gets to like, is this dollar a health risk?

1393
01:49:33,980 --> 01:49:36,980
It's like, yeah. Okay. How about this though?

1394
01:49:36,980 --> 01:49:40,340
So you are in a hurry. Okay.

1395
01:49:40,340 --> 01:49:46,140
Okay. You're in enough of a hurry that you are, that you are jogging.

1396
01:49:46,140 --> 01:49:50,420
Ooh. Okay. It's on the other side of the street.

1397
01:49:50,420 --> 01:49:56,340
There's no cars. No. You're going this way and that way.

1398
01:49:56,340 --> 01:50:00,700
You're going to go to the next intersection. You're going to go right. It's on the left side of the street.

1399
01:50:00,700 --> 01:50:04,940
There are hurries that are not that big of a hurry that I will jog for.

1400
01:50:04,940 --> 01:50:08,780
So it's still kind of depends. You're on your trip to, your last trip to Germany.

1401
01:50:08,780 --> 01:50:11,940
No, I don't get it.

1402
01:50:11,940 --> 01:50:15,100
Okay. So there's the line.

1403
01:50:15,100 --> 01:50:20,660
Nothing to do with human or animal waste is a no go.

1404
01:50:20,660 --> 01:50:23,820
There are definitely kitchens, there are definitely commercial kitchens where I would pick it

1405
01:50:23,820 --> 01:50:28,020
up off the ground. Okay. There are also very disgusting commercial kitchens.

1406
01:50:28,020 --> 01:50:34,380
And then out of the way is fine as long as I was already playing Pokemon Go anyway.

1407
01:50:34,380 --> 01:50:37,980
Yeah. The point is to walk.

1408
01:50:37,980 --> 01:50:40,980
So yeah, sure. Whatever. I don't care.

1409
01:50:40,980 --> 01:50:47,740
Got it. Okay. There are some things where like there is an incredibly minor gain for this like incredibly

1410
01:50:47,740 --> 01:50:50,980
long amount of walking that I could do and I'll just be like, yeah, sure.

1411
01:50:50,980 --> 01:50:55,780
Oh man. Trick killer here says when I was a teenager, we used to put dollar bills in the horse manure

1412
01:50:55,780 --> 01:51:00,900
at the Minnesota State Fair and then watch to see who picks it up.

1413
01:51:00,900 --> 01:51:06,580
Absolutely deranged. That is sociopathic. That is just classic teenager activities.

1414
01:51:06,580 --> 01:51:12,220
I mean, look, like this is coming from someone who literally had like horse turdy fights

1415
01:51:12,220 --> 01:51:16,180
in the riding ring with my siblings. So like whatever.

1416
01:51:16,180 --> 01:51:19,500
Like I'm not, I'm not judging. I mean, that's the thing.

1417
01:51:19,500 --> 01:51:22,860
If one person... I think that's more accurate teenager activity. If one person throws one...

1418
01:51:22,860 --> 01:51:26,460
Yeah, throw it back. I mean, it's good.

1419
01:51:26,460 --> 01:51:32,800
And to be clear, I'm talking like the dried out, the dried out ones, which is very different

1420
01:51:32,800 --> 01:51:36,500
from the fresh ones. It really is. Very different.

1421
01:51:36,500 --> 01:51:44,740
Luca103 says, I'm sorry, what? Tell me that you never lived on a farm without telling me you never lived on a farm.

1422
01:51:44,740 --> 01:51:48,140
Poop made of grass is not that gross. It doesn't smell that bad.

1423
01:51:48,140 --> 01:51:53,700
It doesn't like... Yeah, it's... They also do actually really turn into throwable balls.

1424
01:51:53,700 --> 01:51:56,700
They really do. Like it's... Yeah.

1425
01:51:56,700 --> 01:52:00,220
Yeah, they really do. It's... Austin Blitt says it's poop though.

1426
01:52:00,220 --> 01:52:04,700
You get a little desensitized to it. Yeah. You shovel enough of it.

1427
01:52:04,700 --> 01:52:10,940
Like literally, I probably have shoveled thousands of pounds of horse poo.

1428
01:52:10,940 --> 01:52:14,540
It's like, yeah, what? Yeah.

1429
01:52:14,540 --> 01:52:19,060
It's poop. Part of life. You know?

1430
01:52:19,060 --> 01:52:27,980
And the difference between vegetarian animal poop and carnivore animal poop is a whole

1431
01:52:27,980 --> 01:52:31,180
world. A whole world of difference.

1432
01:52:31,180 --> 01:52:34,180
Yeah. I don't know.

1433
01:52:34,180 --> 01:52:37,260
Maybe that's the kind of thing I shouldn't admit, but...

1434
01:52:37,260 --> 01:52:41,700
I'm in my zero sh** given phase that had a poop fight.

1435
01:52:41,700 --> 01:52:44,700
Whatever. I don't know. I think it's great.

1436
01:52:44,700 --> 01:52:50,100
Someone's going to find a way to turn it into something. I mean, there's always something.

1437
01:52:50,100 --> 01:52:53,380
You were saying I'm a scat man? I'm a scat man.

1438
01:52:53,380 --> 01:52:58,100
No, I haven't. You don't know that?

1439
01:52:58,100 --> 01:53:02,020
Whoa. Please tell me. You know what I'm talking about.

1440
01:53:02,020 --> 01:53:07,020
He's... Cool. Yeah, rest in peace.

1441
01:53:07,020 --> 01:53:10,020
Oh, wait. What? Really?

1442
01:53:10,020 --> 01:53:13,020
Yeah. Oh, all right. Well, that was a downy.

1443
01:53:13,020 --> 01:53:17,620
Thanks, Dan. That sucks. Glad we brought you out of your focus zone to do that.

1444
01:53:17,620 --> 01:53:20,620
Cool. What do we want to talk about next?

1445
01:53:20,620 --> 01:53:23,620
Ah, yes. The... Oh, wow.

1446
01:53:23,620 --> 01:53:29,140
Like a while ago. Okay. Qualcomm acquires Arduino.

1447
01:53:29,140 --> 01:53:33,700
Qualcomm, known for developing mobile chips such as the Snapdragon series and many more,

1448
01:53:33,700 --> 01:53:38,620
has acquired microcontroller manufacturer Arduino for an undisclosed sum.

1449
01:53:43,620 --> 01:53:46,620
How are we feeling about this? Hold on. I think...

1450
01:53:46,620 --> 01:53:49,620
Okay, I just... I love the look on your face there.

1451
01:53:49,620 --> 01:53:54,820
Qualcomm states that by acquiring Arduino, this will allow them to deliver a full stack

1452
01:53:55,020 --> 01:53:59,020
edge platform, which is a fancy way of saying local AI.

1453
01:53:59,020 --> 01:54:03,340
Jeff Geerling posted a short five-minute video talking about this and some concerns like

1454
01:54:03,340 --> 01:54:06,940
commitment to open source and education spaces.

1455
01:54:06,940 --> 01:54:12,980
Which were like a huge thing with Arduino. That's how people primarily talked about when they first showed up, was the education

1456
01:54:12,980 --> 01:54:17,620
spaces stuff. Well, hey, I mean, Qualcomm is really well known for...

1457
01:54:17,620 --> 01:54:20,820
Sorry, I can't. Good luck.

1458
01:54:20,820 --> 01:54:26,420
I can't finish that sentence. I mean, here's the problem.

1459
01:54:26,420 --> 01:54:33,660
The problem with something getting acquired for money by someone who expects a return

1460
01:54:33,660 --> 01:54:41,820
on said money is that whatever money it was making now was clearly not enough for whoever

1461
01:54:41,820 --> 01:54:52,420
was making money with it now. So whoever's going to acquire it is often, but not always, often highly financially motivated

1462
01:54:52,420 --> 01:54:57,860
to make it make more money. Yeah, that's kind of the point.

1463
01:54:57,860 --> 01:55:01,660
Private equity. This isn't private equity, but private equity.

1464
01:55:01,660 --> 01:55:04,660
I mean, that's an interesting conversation.

1465
01:55:04,660 --> 01:55:13,020
At what point is it private equity? At what point does a large enough conglomerate start to essentially function like private

1466
01:55:13,020 --> 01:55:17,300
equity in terms of the impact that it has on the companies that it acquires?

1467
01:55:17,300 --> 01:55:24,180
I mean, there's no, I don't think that, you know, what's happened with Activision Blizzard

1468
01:55:24,180 --> 01:55:27,700
for Microsoft acquiring them would have been any different if private equity acquired them.

1469
01:55:27,700 --> 01:55:31,900
Like I don't really, I don't really see the difference at that point.

1470
01:55:31,900 --> 01:55:37,900
Yeah. Well, we'll see how that goes.

1471
01:55:37,900 --> 01:55:40,900
Screwdriver? Sure. Why not?

1472
01:55:40,900 --> 01:55:49,420
Prusa and LTT screwdriver video. Prusa posted a nine minute video today talking about the development of the LTT screwdriver.

1473
01:55:49,420 --> 01:55:52,900
Wait, that was Prusa. I saw this in my feed.

1474
01:55:52,900 --> 01:55:57,420
I didn't realize it was Prusa. Huh.

1475
01:55:57,420 --> 01:56:04,540
Cool. Uh, yeah. Uh, talking about everything from handle design to line a spontaneously saying he wanted

1476
01:56:04,540 --> 01:56:09,620
the screwdriver to be orange, uh, spontaneously saying that.

1477
01:56:09,620 --> 01:56:12,620
I don't know. That's a goal forever. I don't know.

1478
01:56:12,620 --> 01:56:19,740
That's, uh, that's what, that's what Kyle says. He says, I couldn't, I couldn't, uh, I couldn't contain my excitement.

1479
01:56:19,740 --> 01:56:26,060
I haven't actually watched this. So I have no idea what other, uh, what other things, of course, who's supposed to be orange?

1480
01:56:26,060 --> 01:56:32,540
Uh, I don't actually necessarily know that for sure because yeah, the, the snap on one

1481
01:56:32,540 --> 01:56:35,540
that I used before was orange and orange.

1482
01:56:35,540 --> 01:56:40,580
Color was orange and black part of our branding, but we also did an all black screwdriver

1483
01:56:40,580 --> 01:56:45,460
right from the very start. I literally do not remember.

1484
01:56:45,460 --> 01:56:49,300
It's possible he remembers this better than I do.

1485
01:56:49,300 --> 01:56:53,060
The screwdriver not having some orange on it would be weird.

1486
01:56:53,060 --> 01:56:57,740
The primary standard one, not having some orange on it would be weird.

1487
01:56:57,740 --> 01:57:00,860
I really don't remember. I got it.

1488
01:57:00,860 --> 01:57:07,140
I got to be completely honest with you. I wasn't involved at all. So I have no idea, uh, but yeah, that's, that's awesome.

1489
01:57:07,140 --> 01:57:13,340
Hypothetical world, where would LTT be today if there was no screwdriver?

1490
01:57:13,340 --> 01:57:17,260
Exactly where it is probably, but maybe a little smaller.

1491
01:57:17,260 --> 01:57:27,660
Yeah. Maybe, maybe a little smaller. The screwdriver was, uh, a very most excellent, um, product launch for us and, uh, continues

1492
01:57:27,660 --> 01:57:30,740
to sell extremely well on the store.

1493
01:57:30,740 --> 01:57:34,940
I think we're, I think we're well over half a million screwdrivers now, which is like,

1494
01:57:34,940 --> 01:57:40,740
I have had one interaction where someone had no idea what the channel was or anything,

1495
01:57:40,740 --> 01:57:46,540
but I was talking about what I do. And then they were like, wait, the screwdriver that has happened.

1496
01:57:46,540 --> 01:57:49,540
Really? So they just only know us by the screwdriver?

1497
01:57:49,540 --> 01:57:55,460
Yeah. Well, they, I guess someone in their life probably knew the channel and told them about the screwdriver

1498
01:57:55,460 --> 01:57:59,060
and they were like, okay, well, It's very giftable. Try it out or got gifted or something.

1499
01:57:59,060 --> 01:58:02,260
I don't know what. Yeah. Um, and then they liked the screwdriver a bunch.

1500
01:58:02,260 --> 01:58:05,260
So they knew the screwdriver, but they didn't, they don't care about computers or anything.

1501
01:58:05,260 --> 01:58:08,260
Right. So like, fair enough. Yeah.

1502
01:58:08,260 --> 01:58:15,260
Whatever. I mean, they were like, nice screwdriver. It's like, okay, cool.

1503
01:58:15,260 --> 01:58:18,260
They like it. They use it all the time. Sweet.

1504
01:58:18,260 --> 01:58:26,700
Couldn't, couldn't give the slightest crap about anything else going on, but pretty stoked

1505
01:58:26,700 --> 01:58:29,700
on the screwdriver. Nice. Yeah.

1506
01:58:29,700 --> 01:58:37,860
You know what I'm not stoked on? Ford. Ford is locking basic navigation and more behind a subscription.

1507
01:58:37,860 --> 01:58:43,740
Who could have seen this coming? Could anyone possibly have seen this coming?

1508
01:58:43,740 --> 01:58:49,380
I mean, ah, dude, I was, uh, I was someone, uh, someone posted on the subreddit that,

1509
01:58:49,380 --> 01:58:54,820
uh, Chevy is announcing a new bolt and that surely Linus would be talking about this on

1510
01:58:54,820 --> 01:58:58,700
WAN Show. And I was like, okay, first of all, It's a bolt, not a fault.

1511
01:58:58,700 --> 01:59:03,060
Yes. That's the first thing I was going to say. I never cared about the bolt.

1512
01:59:03,060 --> 01:59:07,260
The bolt was an entry level EV, which is like fine.

1513
01:59:07,260 --> 01:59:12,260
But what excited me was the volt, the plug-in hybrid back when plug-in hybrids weren't trendy

1514
01:59:12,260 --> 01:59:16,340
and cool yet. And I took a bunch of flak for talking about how cool they were.

1515
01:59:16,340 --> 01:59:19,820
And now everyone knows they're cool. They're so cool. They really are cool.

1516
01:59:19,820 --> 01:59:22,820
They're so cool. I loved the bolt. There is no new vault.

1517
01:59:22,820 --> 01:59:30,920
It's still bolt. Or the new one is bolt, whatever the point is to GM doesn't support Android Auto and

1518
01:59:30,920 --> 01:59:41,720
CarPlay anymore. They've gone the Rivian Tesla route and I, I, I gotta be honest, man, like I, I still

1519
01:59:41,720 --> 01:59:48,920
can think the cars are cool. I'll be like, yeah, if this suits your needs, I wouldn't judge you in any way for buying

1520
01:59:48,920 --> 01:59:57,560
one. But you're going to have to pry my money from my cold, dead hands before I buy a car that

1521
01:59:57,560 --> 02:00:03,800
doesn't support me just plugging in my phone and using all my crap that I'm already logged

1522
02:00:03,800 --> 02:00:08,480
into and all the data tracking that is already happening anyway, because I need this in my

1523
02:00:08,480 --> 02:00:17,400
pocket anyway. I am not signing into your additional platform and using your additional separate apps.

1524
02:00:17,400 --> 02:00:21,080
I am not going to do it.

1525
02:00:21,080 --> 02:00:28,320
I won't. So GM can make all the bolts and bolts and sholts and mults.

1526
02:00:28,320 --> 02:00:33,840
I don't care. They can make anything they want and they will not get my money from me because they

1527
02:00:33,840 --> 02:00:43,200
have made a decision that I fundamentally disagree with because it unlocks this bulls***

1528
02:00:43,200 --> 02:00:46,760
because all of a sudden now you control the platform and all the other subscriptions that

1529
02:00:46,760 --> 02:00:53,960
I already have in my life can't just be plugged into my car, which I expect to just f***ing

1530
02:00:53,960 --> 02:00:58,640
own once I pay that kind of money for it.

1531
02:00:58,640 --> 02:01:02,800
No. I own my car. I like my car a lot.

1532
02:01:02,800 --> 02:01:06,600
My car is great. I got a new car. Oh, what?

1533
02:01:06,600 --> 02:01:10,040
I'm daily driving a Prius. No, Corolla.

1534
02:01:10,040 --> 02:01:13,040
Different Toyota. It doesn't even know that. I have a new car.

1535
02:01:13,040 --> 02:01:16,200
What is it? I have a new car.

1536
02:01:16,200 --> 02:01:22,000
What is it? I don't know. It's the one that we hooked up the Comma AI self-driving.

1537
02:01:22,000 --> 02:01:25,040
So are you trying to like daily Comma AI or something? Yeah.

1538
02:01:25,040 --> 02:01:28,240
So it's going to be a really different kind of video for our channel.

1539
02:01:28,240 --> 02:01:33,240
I have no idea if people are going to be into it. I don't know if it's going to cut together very well.

1540
02:01:33,240 --> 02:01:36,480
I don't know. But I get in the car.

1541
02:01:36,480 --> 02:01:42,120
We have like three or four webcams in there or if not webcams dashcams.

1542
02:01:42,120 --> 02:01:47,640
So we have two angles of me, one that's like just me and one that's like me and the passenger.

1543
02:01:47,640 --> 02:01:52,560
We have an angle showing the Comma AI and I think there might be one more angle.

1544
02:01:52,560 --> 02:02:00,600
I can't remember what it is. And then we put a microphone on the passenger sunshade, just like a little shotgun mic pointing

1545
02:02:00,600 --> 02:02:06,080
at me. And every time I get in the car, I'm supposed to turn on the audio recording.

1546
02:02:06,080 --> 02:02:12,920
The video rolls automatically. And then I'm just supposed to like, if anything interesting happens, I do like an audio mark

1547
02:02:12,920 --> 02:02:16,240
for the editor. And then I talk about it and we're going to cut it together.

1548
02:02:16,240 --> 02:02:21,960
And I daily drove a DIY self-driving, I mean, it's not really self-driving.

1549
02:02:21,960 --> 02:02:27,120
It's an advanced driver versus feature. But I mean, certain companies might call it self-driving.

1550
02:02:27,120 --> 02:02:32,840
So why can't I? I saw your car parked somewhere the other day.

1551
02:02:32,840 --> 02:02:36,240
Yeah. Your actual car. Yeah.

1552
02:02:36,240 --> 02:02:41,200
Take it. And was genuinely confused because I was like, where is he?

1553
02:02:41,200 --> 02:02:46,920
Yeah. And now this makes a lot, actually a lot more sense because I was like, I was the last person

1554
02:02:46,920 --> 02:02:52,160
to leave the place and I was locking everything up and then your car was there and I was

1555
02:02:52,160 --> 02:02:55,160
like, what? Okay. I was actually concerned.

1556
02:02:55,160 --> 02:02:58,160
I like locked you inside. Oh yeah. No, I'm good.

1557
02:02:58,160 --> 02:03:02,960
Yeah. I'm driving the Corolla. I, I, I like my car.

1558
02:03:02,960 --> 02:03:05,520
No, I love my car. It's great.

1559
02:03:06,520 --> 02:03:11,480
It doesn't, it's not life-changing. This is why I love my car so much.

1560
02:03:11,480 --> 02:03:16,320
Yeah. It's been paid off for so long and I get inside and it's comfortable.

1561
02:03:16,320 --> 02:03:19,800
Yeah. The Corolla's all right. And it gets me where I need to go.

1562
02:03:19,800 --> 02:03:23,000
Yep. Oh no, I don't have Google Maps. Oh, my phone's sitting on the dash.

1563
02:03:23,000 --> 02:03:27,100
I suddenly have Google Maps. Wow. Crazy feature.

1564
02:03:27,100 --> 02:03:31,200
It turns out I'm still not really much of a car guy.

1565
02:03:31,200 --> 02:03:35,280
I like cool cars. I don't not like them.

1566
02:03:35,280 --> 02:03:38,400
I just think it's a lot of money.

1567
02:03:38,400 --> 02:03:42,080
And it is, it's, it's, it's a fun party trick.

1568
02:03:42,080 --> 02:03:50,360
Like driving a rocket ship. I don't think it's cheap to not want to spend like decent nice new cars are so expensive.

1569
02:03:50,360 --> 02:03:53,800
I don't want to spend like 60 grand on a new version of my car.

1570
02:03:53,800 --> 02:03:56,800
How much is it? 60 grand. That doesn't even include your subscription.

1571
02:03:56,800 --> 02:04:03,080
A Reddit user on the LTT subreddit shared a photo of their truck requiring them to pay

1572
02:04:03,080 --> 02:04:10,760
a 120 Canadian dollar a year add-on fee to get full use of their car's navigation system.

1573
02:04:10,760 --> 02:04:15,500
It's not the only subscription that you need to get full access to your Ford truck's features.

1574
02:04:15,500 --> 02:04:24,440
Their blue cruise, hands-free highway driving assistance will cost you $500 a year or $2,500

1575
02:04:24,440 --> 02:04:30,080
one time for a lifetime access, which they indicate could actually be only seven years

1576
02:04:30,080 --> 02:04:33,880
of the service. The comment here says, who's this?

1577
02:04:33,880 --> 02:04:38,680
This is David. That's a deal breaker, ladies.

1578
02:04:38,680 --> 02:04:45,320
Some other examples of car sub bulls**t, BMW has heated seats locked behind a subscription.

1579
02:04:45,320 --> 02:04:48,600
Mercedes has actual car performance locked behind a subscription.

1580
02:04:48,600 --> 02:04:56,720
Okay. I've talked about this one, that one I actually don't necessarily mind as much because there

1581
02:04:56,720 --> 02:05:04,920
can be wear and tear impacts on pushing hardware harder, whether it's an electric, whether

1582
02:05:04,920 --> 02:05:10,880
it's a gas vehicle, there could be an actual cost associated with unlocking that extra

1583
02:05:10,880 --> 02:05:15,440
performance in terms of warranty service over time.

1584
02:05:15,440 --> 02:05:20,800
That one could potentially maybe be justified.

1585
02:05:20,800 --> 02:05:25,960
Heated seats that are just already there, I object to far more.

1586
02:05:26,200 --> 02:05:31,640
A navigation system that doesn't work is like, what even is a car in current year that doesn't

1587
02:05:31,640 --> 02:05:34,640
have a navigation system? You've got to be kidding me. Anyway.

1588
02:05:34,640 --> 02:05:39,040
Tesla has their media capabilities behind such a subscription, Toyota has remote start

1589
02:05:39,040 --> 02:05:44,040
on vehicles three years older or more on a subscription, and a ton have over-the-air

1590
02:05:44,040 --> 02:05:47,480
UI updates locked behind subscriptions.

1591
02:05:47,480 --> 02:05:53,840
GM stated, the one that, remember, I was just talking about how I'm not interested in there

1592
02:05:53,840 --> 02:06:00,680
not having Android Auto or CarPlay Bulls**t, GM stated that it earned more than $2 billion

1593
02:06:00,680 --> 02:06:05,920
in 2021 via in-car subscriptions.

1594
02:06:05,920 --> 02:06:11,280
Yeah. That's exactly why they don't do it like they did in the Volt anymore.

1595
02:06:11,280 --> 02:06:16,360
The Volt is like the Goldilocks zone.

1596
02:06:16,360 --> 02:06:20,000
What is that car, 2017, I think? It's great.

1597
02:06:20,000 --> 02:06:25,760
Sounds right. It has a big enough screen that you can totally make out where you're going.

1598
02:06:25,760 --> 02:06:29,400
It supports Android Auto and CarPlay.

1599
02:06:29,400 --> 02:06:33,720
It never got any like- Ended production 2019, so yours being 2017 sounds pretty yuck.

1600
02:06:33,720 --> 02:06:41,840
I think mine's a 2017. It doesn't really get any OTA updates or anything, but it doesn't need them because I can plug

1601
02:06:41,840 --> 02:06:47,480
my phone into it forever and have all the features I could possibly want.

1602
02:06:47,480 --> 02:06:56,840
People love these, dude. What? 2019 Chevrolet Volt, car and driver, this is American prices, used, dude.

1603
02:06:56,840 --> 02:07:01,640
Well, yeah. It's because it's like a God tier car.

1604
02:07:01,640 --> 02:07:06,480
It's awesome. That's wicked. No, I'm not even like, that's cool.

1605
02:07:06,480 --> 02:07:10,040
I'm not even down talking it. Dude, I took- And I get it.

1606
02:07:10,040 --> 02:07:13,960
I took so much flack for that take back then.

1607
02:07:13,960 --> 02:07:19,440
It was a major factor in me just being like, hey, I don't think I'm going to push that

1608
02:07:19,440 --> 02:07:27,720
hard into doing more car reviews on LTT because I took so much for being like, this is a really

1609
02:07:27,720 --> 02:07:30,720
great car. Did you throw it?

1610
02:07:30,720 --> 02:07:33,720
Throw the car. No, the- Damn.

1611
02:07:33,720 --> 02:07:44,080
Did you start whipping it back at people or did you lose your youthfulness?

1612
02:07:44,080 --> 02:07:48,000
I just got frustrated.

1613
02:07:48,000 --> 02:07:51,880
With them throwing feces at you? What?

1614
02:07:51,880 --> 02:07:54,880
Yes. Okay. Yeah.

1615
02:07:54,880 --> 02:07:57,880
It doesn't taste good. I thought it was food.

1616
02:07:57,880 --> 02:08:00,880
Oh, no. Oh, no. That never happened.

1617
02:08:00,880 --> 02:08:06,380
Oh, no. Yeah, this sucks.

1618
02:08:06,380 --> 02:08:09,380
All of this sucks. All of it sucks. Boo.

1619
02:08:09,380 --> 02:08:18,880
Stop doing it. Discussion question. In that same statement, GM stated that I accidentally minimized this topic, GM stated

1620
02:08:18,880 --> 02:08:24,760
that customers are willing to spend $135 a month on average for the right mix of in-car

1621
02:08:24,760 --> 02:08:28,680
products and services. Nope. No, I don't think I am.

1622
02:08:28,680 --> 02:08:31,680
Stuff it. I'm not at all. I will pay you nothing.

1623
02:08:31,680 --> 02:08:39,000
My subscription, like my included with purchase subscriptions in my Taycan expired last month

1624
02:08:39,560 --> 02:08:47,680
and I don't even know what they were because to me, a feature of a vehicle that is not

1625
02:08:47,680 --> 02:08:51,840
just part of it and that requires a subscription doesn't exist.

1626
02:08:51,840 --> 02:08:56,240
So I have literally never used them because the last thing I want is to get used to using

1627
02:08:56,240 --> 02:09:00,320
something that I know I'm going to have to pay monthly for later. Like, no.

1628
02:09:00,320 --> 02:09:05,440
The only problem my cars had in years happened somewhat recently, some air got in the brake

1629
02:09:05,440 --> 02:09:11,440
line. It still works perfectly fine, just like should probably get it tuned up eventually.

1630
02:09:11,440 --> 02:09:15,640
Somebody with a trailer pulled out in front of me today when I was driving to work.

1631
02:09:15,640 --> 02:09:20,640
And at the red light, their trailer brakes were not working and their trailer was blocking

1632
02:09:20,640 --> 02:09:26,080
their brake lights. So when they went to go stop, I didn't realize there was a car in front of them as well.

1633
02:09:26,080 --> 02:09:29,680
So they stopped way earlier than I expected and I couldn't see their lights.

1634
02:09:29,680 --> 02:09:33,560
So I ended up slamming on my brakes in order to not hit them.

1635
02:09:33,560 --> 02:09:38,520
And that somehow fixed the air in the lines. So my car fixed itself.

1636
02:09:38,520 --> 02:09:41,520
Thanks Honda.

1637
02:09:41,520 --> 02:09:54,760
Okay. Sick. When I went to stop at the next light, I was like, wait, what the heck, it was awesome.

1638
02:09:54,760 --> 02:09:58,200
That is not okay. Yeah, I'll go get it checked out, but it did actually fix itself.

1639
02:09:58,200 --> 02:10:03,800
So I don't know. I don't know if like brake slamming just shocked the line and the air came out or something.

1640
02:10:03,800 --> 02:10:13,520
I don't know, but I will get it checked out. Dude, take hands are crazy, crazy affordable.

1641
02:10:13,520 --> 02:10:17,280
If you wait for the right deal these days, whoa, why is that so much cheaper than the

1642
02:10:17,280 --> 02:10:20,640
one? Is it the turbo S part? They have.

1643
02:10:20,640 --> 02:10:28,920
Oh, yes. Turbo S is the like top spec one and is quite a bit more expensive, but I mean, I don't know.

1644
02:10:29,920 --> 02:10:34,760
I know guys, I'm taking it in. I literally have an appointment from like that I planned like a week ago.

1645
02:10:34,760 --> 02:10:37,760
It's fine. Don't worry about it. Yeah.

1646
02:10:37,760 --> 02:10:40,760
My goodness. Dude, my car is depreciated so much.

1647
02:10:40,760 --> 02:10:46,160
It's fine though. You bought a luxury electric car.

1648
02:10:46,160 --> 02:10:51,840
Yeah. What do you expect? I expect to enjoy driving my luxury electric car, except when I drive my Corolla, which

1649
02:10:51,840 --> 02:10:54,960
honestly is kind of fine too.

1650
02:10:55,960 --> 02:11:00,600
Dude, the comma AI is really cool.

1651
02:11:00,600 --> 02:11:05,240
The more I drive it, the more clear it is that it's really though, only useful in a

1652
02:11:05,240 --> 02:11:13,320
straight line. Like, yeah, it doesn't do anything other than really lane keep assist and auto start

1653
02:11:13,320 --> 02:11:18,840
stop, but to its credit, I had a really cool experience with it this morning.

1654
02:11:18,840 --> 02:11:27,120
I was stopped in the left-hand turning lane coming down Highway 15.

1655
02:11:27,120 --> 02:11:31,880
Is that the one that comes down from the Trans-Canada Highway to the office area?

1656
02:11:31,880 --> 02:11:34,880
It's the Highway 15? I think so. I think so.

1657
02:11:34,880 --> 02:11:38,280
Yeah. So I'm coming down Highway 15 and then I'm turning left onto Fraser Highway. You know the one, right?

1658
02:11:38,280 --> 02:11:44,000
Okay. So there's your two lanes going straight and then there's your two turning lanes.

1659
02:11:44,000 --> 02:11:50,520
So there's all that construction there for the SkyTrain right now. So I'm in the right most of the left turning lanes.

1660
02:11:50,520 --> 02:11:54,600
So if I was numbering them from left to right, I'm in lane two.

1661
02:11:54,600 --> 02:11:57,720
So there's two lights for the straight lanes.

1662
02:11:57,720 --> 02:12:01,560
Those are kind of in front of me here. And then there's two lights for the left turning lane.

1663
02:12:01,560 --> 02:12:05,240
There's one kind of here and then there's one like way over here. And so I was sitting there.

1664
02:12:05,240 --> 02:12:10,520
I was at the front and I was like, what's going to happen when the straight green lights

1665
02:12:10,520 --> 02:12:15,400
turn green? Is it going to rip me into the intersection?

1666
02:12:15,400 --> 02:12:18,840
Because a beta feature, I think it's still in beta actually have not checked, but it

1667
02:12:18,840 --> 02:12:27,400
was in beta back when we did our first impressions. A feature that I think is in beta of the comma AI is a green and red light detection.

1668
02:12:27,400 --> 02:12:31,600
So it should theoretically automatically stop for a red light and start once the light

1669
02:12:31,600 --> 02:12:35,800
turns green. It didn't go.

1670
02:12:35,800 --> 02:12:39,240
When the straight greens went, it didn't go.

1671
02:12:39,240 --> 02:12:42,480
I don't actually recall if it went when the left turning lights went.

1672
02:12:42,480 --> 02:12:46,120
I just have to check the footage. But yeah. I was pretty impressed.

1673
02:12:46,120 --> 02:12:49,120
That is pretty good actually. Yeah. That's quite a niche case.

1674
02:12:49,120 --> 02:12:53,920
However, let's talk about yellow lights.

1675
02:12:53,920 --> 02:13:02,480
It slows down. It seems to kind of treat them like caution, but it doesn't treat them like caution.

1676
02:13:02,480 --> 02:13:06,280
This will turn red. Maybe it treats them like caution.

1677
02:13:06,280 --> 02:13:13,040
Maybe it will turn red. Maybe it could turn green again. Maybe it has location services and knows you're in BC.

1678
02:13:13,040 --> 02:13:21,920
That's a joke because BC drivers, red means stop, green means go, yellow means go faster.

1679
02:13:21,920 --> 02:13:25,160
Go faster, but head on a swivel. But go faster.

1680
02:13:25,160 --> 02:13:30,960
Oh, God. Yeah. They just knew where you were.

1681
02:13:30,960 --> 02:13:34,160
They're trying to keep you fitting in with the locals.

1682
02:13:34,160 --> 02:13:39,520
Yeah, well, yeah.

1683
02:13:39,520 --> 02:13:45,680
Microsoft has promised more Xbox hardware is still on the way despite low sales numbers

1684
02:13:45,680 --> 02:13:53,480
for their hardware and the canned Xbox handheld that is rumored to be because AMD required

1685
02:13:53,480 --> 02:13:59,280
a guarantee that they would sell at least 10 million units.

1686
02:13:59,280 --> 02:14:04,400
Microsoft has assured gamers that future first party consoles and devices are still being

1687
02:14:04,400 --> 02:14:07,880
designed, engineered and built by Xbox.

1688
02:14:07,880 --> 02:14:13,640
They have pointed to the multi-year partnership that they entered with AMD earlier this year.

1689
02:14:13,640 --> 02:14:18,360
With that said, it still looks like their main focus remains on Game Pass with rumors

1690
02:14:18,360 --> 02:14:22,640
of a free ad-supported tier of streaming only Game Pass on the horizon.

1691
02:14:22,640 --> 02:14:25,760
Okay, I can see from your face, but hold on a second.

1692
02:14:25,760 --> 02:14:31,680
Hold on a second. Okay. We have a video coming soon about the state of Xbox that you should keep an eye out for.

1693
02:14:31,680 --> 02:14:40,440
I actually filmed my part of it today and I want to talk about ad-supported free streaming

1694
02:14:40,440 --> 02:14:47,640
only Game Pass. Luke, would you like to translate that look on your face into words?

1695
02:14:47,640 --> 02:14:53,200
Do you have words? Mostly sadness, I think. Because you were a bit of an Xbox boy.

1696
02:14:53,200 --> 02:14:57,880
Yeah. Oh, yeah. Original Xbox, Xbox 360 were a huge deal.

1697
02:14:57,880 --> 02:15:01,560
Loved both of those consoles. Absolutely loved both of those consoles.

1698
02:15:01,600 --> 02:15:05,880
Seeing either one of them immediately brings me joy.

1699
02:15:05,880 --> 02:15:12,040
Like fantastic pieces of equipment.

1700
02:15:12,040 --> 02:15:18,380
They really fell off the rails in a big way immediately after the 360 and I think never

1701
02:15:18,380 --> 02:15:29,440
got it back. The unhappy face isn't this, honestly, it just feels like, and it's Microsoft again.

1702
02:15:29,440 --> 02:15:34,720
It feels like the same take that I have with Windows, which it's just been so long now

1703
02:15:34,720 --> 02:15:42,880
of just junk. The original Xbox and Xbox 360 were an amazing value prop, came with incredible exclusives,

1704
02:15:42,880 --> 02:15:48,360
fantastic games, fantastic hardware, great experience, and then it just went and never

1705
02:15:48,360 --> 02:15:52,680
came back. What was the first 360 in the one?

1706
02:15:52,680 --> 02:16:00,600
Not making ... Yeah. What were the bangers on the Xbox One?

1707
02:16:00,600 --> 02:16:03,600
When did Gears hit? Was that 360? No, that was 360, right?

1708
02:16:03,600 --> 02:16:07,880
No. Yeah. Xbox One was Gears of War One, right?

1709
02:16:07,880 --> 02:16:13,040
No. Oh, no, that was 360. Original Gears of War was either 360 or the original one?

1710
02:16:13,040 --> 02:16:16,800
No, it wasn't original Xbox, I don't think. Yeah.

1711
02:16:16,800 --> 02:16:20,680
So I'm pretty sure it's 360 then. Titanfall 2 says Mav. Okay.

1712
02:16:20,680 --> 02:16:22,680
That was multi-platform. Yeah.

1713
02:16:23,680 --> 02:16:26,680
Yeah. Gears of War was 360.

1714
02:16:26,680 --> 02:16:31,680
Halo 2. No, no, no, no. People are just naming stuff that was on the old versions.

1715
02:16:31,680 --> 02:16:35,680
Halo 2 was playable in the original Xbox, but primarily came out for the 360, was really

1716
02:16:35,680 --> 02:16:40,240
designed for the 360, but it was playable in the original Xbox if I remember correctly.

1717
02:16:40,240 --> 02:16:43,240
Or maybe we just got our internet module thing late, I don't know.

1718
02:16:43,240 --> 02:16:49,760
What was Killer for Xbox One? I'm trying to even remember the Xbox One.

1719
02:16:49,760 --> 02:17:02,200
Did anybody care about the Xbox One? Gears 4 to 5 on the Xbox One.

1720
02:17:02,200 --> 02:17:07,080
Halo 5 Guardians, Gears 5, Forza.

1721
02:17:07,080 --> 02:17:10,560
No, man, Fable One was like OG Xbox.

1722
02:17:10,560 --> 02:17:14,360
That wasn't Xbox One. Fantastic game, but old.

1723
02:17:14,360 --> 02:17:18,600
So like this is just downhill.

1724
02:17:18,600 --> 02:17:23,760
What year did the... Red Dead 2's cross-platform, so that's not going to fly.

1725
02:17:23,760 --> 02:17:26,760
Yeah, that's not going to work at all. 2013, wow.

1726
02:17:26,760 --> 02:17:30,600
Right around the time that Windows started getting really terrible as well.

1727
02:17:30,600 --> 02:17:33,600
Interesting. I don't know what changed that. I genuinely don't.

1728
02:17:33,600 --> 02:17:38,200
I'm not alluding. I'm not actually alluding to anything. It's just interesting that the timelines are similar.

1729
02:17:38,200 --> 02:17:41,320
When did Bill Gates step down? Way before that, didn't he?

1730
02:17:41,320 --> 02:17:44,320
Well, yeah, but I mean, it takes a long time for the pipeline to...

1731
02:17:44,320 --> 02:17:48,080
That's fair, but I think it was like way, way before that. Step down as CEO.

1732
02:17:48,080 --> 02:17:51,320
I'm just curious. He was saying that he was like a great leader or whatever.

1733
02:17:51,320 --> 02:17:56,720
2000, he stepped down, so that was way, way, way, way before that.

1734
02:17:56,720 --> 02:17:59,720
All right. What are you talking about?

1735
02:17:59,720 --> 02:18:05,120
Yeah, okay. But my actual sadness here wasn't about the Xbox hardware thing, because in my opinion,

1736
02:18:05,120 --> 02:18:09,320
that's been dead for 12 years.

1737
02:18:09,320 --> 02:18:13,920
Right. So, I already kind of moved on from Xbox hardware.

1738
02:18:13,920 --> 02:18:17,720
The thing that I like about Xbox hardware is the controllers now.

1739
02:18:17,720 --> 02:18:22,400
I would be really sad if they stopped making controllers, and it impacts my life literally

1740
02:18:22,400 --> 02:18:27,720
not at all that they stopped making consoles, despite being like, as you said, an Xbox boy.

1741
02:18:27,720 --> 02:18:34,160
Right. Because they just completely lost me, which sucks.

1742
02:18:34,160 --> 02:18:39,720
Yeah, I'm trying to think of a good reason to game on an Xbox.

1743
02:18:39,720 --> 02:18:45,160
The cheap hardware was one, but then they've hiked the prices.

1744
02:18:45,200 --> 02:18:49,000
Didn't they increase the price recently for the same console? Yeah.

1745
02:18:49,000 --> 02:18:53,080
When does that happen? Remember when mid-cycle consoles would maybe go down in price?

1746
02:18:53,080 --> 02:18:56,680
Do you remember that? They'd either go down, or you'd get like slim versions or whatever.

1747
02:18:56,680 --> 02:19:00,760
Or they'd start coming with bundled games and like extra controllers, like there'd be

1748
02:19:00,760 --> 02:19:04,080
cool variants, like translucent purple. Yeah.

1749
02:19:04,080 --> 02:19:07,080
Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.

1750
02:19:07,080 --> 02:19:10,080
Yeah. That's crazy though. Who would do that with their screwdriver?

1751
02:19:10,080 --> 02:19:13,080
What? Huh? That's crazy.

1752
02:19:13,080 --> 02:19:15,120
That is crazy. That is crazy indeed.

1753
02:19:20,120 --> 02:19:24,320
Yeah. So it's like the thing that I'm sad about here, and I know I'm going to catch flak for

1754
02:19:24,320 --> 02:19:32,160
this, but the thing that I'm sad about here is the, you can play the games for free with

1755
02:19:32,160 --> 02:19:36,200
ads. So you think that's bad?

1756
02:19:36,200 --> 02:19:40,600
That? Why do you think that's bad? Is a stepping stone, in my opinion.

1757
02:19:40,600 --> 02:19:43,880
I mean, is it? Even more increasingly annoying things.

1758
02:19:43,880 --> 02:19:48,960
Is it any different from what we already have in like microtransaction hell?

1759
02:19:48,960 --> 02:19:54,720
I think it's just progressive. I mean, the all, I mean, that's, it's basically just mobile gaming then.

1760
02:19:54,720 --> 02:19:57,720
This is my point. Oh, I see.

1761
02:19:57,720 --> 02:20:02,880
Okay. So you're just like, okay, well. And ads will start being made with this in mind.

1762
02:20:02,880 --> 02:20:06,640
Sorry. Games will start being, I mean, same deal, unfortunately.

1763
02:20:06,640 --> 02:20:11,480
Games will start being made with this in mind. But like mobile games don't need to be as bad as they are.

1764
02:20:11,520 --> 02:20:15,600
They have the hardware. They have the performance to make them better. They don't on purpose.

1765
02:20:15,600 --> 02:20:21,360
The ad supported tier in mobile games though is just to get you going on to the microtransactions.

1766
02:20:21,360 --> 02:20:26,200
And PC games are already made for microtransactions, which is why it feels progressive.

1767
02:20:26,200 --> 02:20:29,320
It's like we skipped stage two cancer and we went straight to stage four.

1768
02:20:29,320 --> 02:20:35,400
Like I don't really, I don't think we even skipped stage two or three.

1769
02:20:35,400 --> 02:20:39,080
I think we did them. Well, when did we have ad supported games on PC?

1770
02:20:39,080 --> 02:20:43,720
Like if you're saying like ads, like I'm saying ad supported is like, is like one of

1771
02:20:43,720 --> 02:20:52,920
the stages we went through to get to. In a few games or already games that have funding from ads, yeah, just in very alternative

1772
02:20:52,920 --> 02:20:57,240
ways. This is the most blatant because there's already been like paid billboard ads.

1773
02:20:57,240 --> 02:21:00,560
There's even been games that have the ads in them update over time.

1774
02:21:00,560 --> 02:21:04,160
Okay. Tell me this.

1775
02:21:04,160 --> 02:21:13,320
If the idea is that the ad supports the streaming of the game, then the game developer isn't

1776
02:21:13,320 --> 02:21:18,760
really being incentivized in any way to put ads in the game itself.

1777
02:21:18,760 --> 02:21:25,040
And it's a source of revenue that is completely separate from any kind of microtransaction. You don't know how the revenue sharing is happening.

1778
02:21:25,040 --> 02:21:31,960
That's true. So if your game gets more ad views, oh, so you're worried about this things getting like

1779
02:21:31,960 --> 02:21:36,560
super grindy. What I was saying was that I'm worried about games being made with this in mind because

1780
02:21:36,560 --> 02:21:45,520
the same thing happened with microtransactions. When microtransactions came in, cool cosmetics for accomplishing cool things went away.

1781
02:21:45,520 --> 02:21:49,920
When microtransactions came in, fun cheat codes went away.

1782
02:21:49,920 --> 02:21:55,920
I've had an intrusive thought. You know how many loading zones there are in Starfield?

1783
02:21:55,920 --> 02:21:59,360
This is my point. Ad break.

1784
02:21:59,360 --> 02:22:09,720
Yeah. So like just the fact that that mechanism in there is there concerns me.

1785
02:22:09,720 --> 02:22:13,880
You understand streaming economy. It can't just be free ads make sense to make it cheap.

1786
02:22:13,880 --> 02:22:18,120
That's fully understand that. That's not the point at all.

1787
02:22:18,120 --> 02:22:23,040
The point is the perverse incentive that happens to developers, right?

1788
02:22:23,040 --> 02:22:29,720
Because now they would be incentivized. I'm assuming if your game plays way more ads than other people's games, you're going to

1789
02:22:29,760 --> 02:22:32,960
get more money. I don't know when the ads play.

1790
02:22:32,960 --> 02:22:38,480
I don't know if it's during the game. I don't know if it's during low screens. It can just be like in the middle of lining up a headshot.

1791
02:22:38,480 --> 02:22:41,960
No. Obviously. So it has to be at some kind of a natural break.

1792
02:22:41,960 --> 02:22:45,480
It could be that you can't launch the game until you play a certain amount of ads or something.

1793
02:22:45,480 --> 02:22:53,480
Right. I don't know. But I'm sure that starting with playing a bunch of ads and then the game going will

1794
02:22:53,480 --> 02:23:00,480
turn into playing a bunch of ads and then in between rounds could turn into whatever.

1795
02:23:02,040 --> 02:23:05,040
This is the sadness. I see. Okay.

1796
02:23:05,040 --> 02:23:12,040
I think gaming was better when you owned less games because you bought them.

1797
02:23:17,120 --> 02:23:23,080
I don't think having access to 700 games made my life better.

1798
02:23:23,120 --> 02:23:27,480
When I had an Xbox and I had like five games, it was great.

1799
02:23:27,480 --> 02:23:32,360
And that was totally fine. And I bought them and there wasn't ads and there wasn't micro transactions and it was

1800
02:23:32,360 --> 02:23:39,640
fantastic. I don't need infinite game on Game Pass for free, but I have to watch ads.

1801
02:23:39,640 --> 02:23:44,240
I don't want that. But you can also afford regular Game Pass or just buying games.

1802
02:23:44,240 --> 02:23:47,760
Even when I couldn't, I preferred it. I would just have less games.

1803
02:23:47,760 --> 02:23:52,120
Like I said, when I had just like a few games in an Xbox, when my brother and I had to go

1804
02:23:53,080 --> 02:23:56,520
do random chores and odd jobs around the neighborhood to be able to afford a Super

1805
02:23:56,520 --> 02:24:01,480
Nintendo, even when like the N64 was out, whatever, I preferred the fewer games that

1806
02:24:01,480 --> 02:24:06,360
I had that did not have the ads that it's nostalgia talking.

1807
02:24:06,360 --> 02:24:11,880
It aggressively is not. And I promise you that is not at all what's happening.

1808
02:24:11,880 --> 02:24:15,640
Yeah. You don't know this man. I promise you that is not the case.

1809
02:24:15,640 --> 02:24:21,320
It's genuinely not roast tinted glasses looking at the past.

1810
02:24:21,320 --> 02:24:24,440
It is actually not that that is not the case whatsoever.

1811
02:24:24,440 --> 02:24:31,480
It is a degradation of game and quality. I loved that tons of games used to come with cheat codes.

1812
02:24:31,480 --> 02:24:40,840
It just made the game fun and silly. I loved games being more contained, compartmentalized experiences.

1813
02:24:40,840 --> 02:24:47,560
I loved doing weird things in game and getting rewarded with like cool, fancy stuff instead

1814
02:24:47,880 --> 02:24:52,040
of most of the cool stuff being locked behind cosmetics that you buy in a store.

1815
02:24:52,040 --> 02:24:59,160
And if you don't think that's happening, you're nuts. Basically what Luke misses is the dopamine hit being because you did something.

1816
02:24:59,160 --> 02:25:02,680
Rather than the dopamine hit being because you paid for something.

1817
02:25:03,640 --> 02:25:08,120
And even if you're like, oh, those mechanisms are still there, they're not prioritized.

1818
02:25:08,120 --> 02:25:13,560
Well, yeah, because it's way more profitable to prioritize giving you a dopamine hit for

1819
02:25:13,560 --> 02:25:16,760
watching an ad or giving you a dopamine hit for paying money.

1820
02:25:18,440 --> 02:25:24,520
And it's such an incredibly powerful force. And again, if you don't think it is, you're probably just being manipulated.

1821
02:25:26,920 --> 02:25:35,400
Sorry. Wow, dropping truth bombs. Are you, are you gonna like, you know, warn them to get to an evac zone

1822
02:25:35,400 --> 02:25:39,240
before you drop truth bombs like that? Nope. Nope.

1823
02:25:39,240 --> 02:25:42,360
Our discussion question here is actually kind of unrelated.

1824
02:25:42,360 --> 02:25:46,440
Why is the Steam Deck considered such a huge success

1825
02:25:46,440 --> 02:25:50,360
when it's rumored to have sold somewhere in the neighborhood of around 5 million units?

1826
02:25:51,240 --> 02:25:55,000
PS Vita sold 10 to 15 million units.

1827
02:25:55,640 --> 02:26:02,200
Wii U sold about 13 million and both are considered to be historic bombs.

1828
02:26:05,080 --> 02:26:09,640
I actually think I have a good answer if you don't have one ready. But I was curious to hear your take.

1829
02:26:09,640 --> 02:26:14,040
First, I have a couple angles. I'm going to go with expectations.

1830
02:26:14,040 --> 02:26:19,720
Yeah. The expectations for Linux gaming was that it was just never going to happen.

1831
02:26:20,440 --> 02:26:22,360
And I don't mean the optimists.

1832
02:26:23,640 --> 02:26:28,600
They thought Linux gaming had already happened and for them it had.

1833
02:26:28,600 --> 02:26:37,480
But for the rest of the world, for like, you know, my nephew, it hadn't happened.

1834
02:26:38,440 --> 02:26:47,240
Steam Deck made that happen. I guarantee you there are more people gaming on a Steam Deck right now

1835
02:26:47,240 --> 02:26:51,560
than there were cumulatively ever before that on Linux.

1836
02:26:52,120 --> 02:27:02,040
Like, huge. Millions of units is incredible for like gaming on Linux.

1837
02:27:03,400 --> 02:27:08,760
So what that, what that, and it's also like, it's also their first crack at it.

1838
02:27:09,720 --> 02:27:21,000
So it's a data point, right? Whereas the Wii U and the PS Vita, they were data points that took a sales trend

1839
02:27:21,000 --> 02:27:26,520
and went like this with it. The Steam Deck is a sales trend that is at the very beginning.

1840
02:27:26,520 --> 02:27:29,560
That most external analysts thought would be a failure.

1841
02:27:29,560 --> 02:27:32,600
And that we think is probably going to go like this.

1842
02:27:32,600 --> 02:27:35,800
Was a keyword. Right. It's probably going to go like this.

1843
02:27:36,440 --> 02:27:42,600
So it's extremely exciting. Reason number two that the Steam Deck is considered a success

1844
02:27:42,600 --> 02:27:48,520
is that the PS Vita and the Wii U had very limited game libraries.

1845
02:27:48,520 --> 02:27:54,280
The Wii U did have some bangers, but a lot of those bangers ended up selling big on the switch.

1846
02:27:54,280 --> 02:27:58,520
Yeah. They didn't end up selling big or on the Wii, right?

1847
02:27:58,520 --> 02:28:04,120
Like that's true. They ended up selling on the consoles that were on either side of the Wii U.

1848
02:28:05,080 --> 02:28:08,280
And yeah, the PS Vita had some bangers too.

1849
02:28:09,320 --> 02:28:15,240
But when you compare that to the Steam Deck, Valve's business model is to take 30% of every

1850
02:28:15,240 --> 02:28:22,040
flipping game on Steam. And the Steam Deck is such an enabler of more hours spent gaming.

1851
02:28:22,040 --> 02:28:28,280
I guarantee you that the economics of the Steam Deck have worked out way better for Valve

1852
02:28:28,280 --> 02:28:32,520
than the PS Vita or the Wii U ever did for Sony or for Nintendo.

1853
02:28:32,600 --> 02:28:39,560
So those are my two main arguments is expectations and sort of future opportunity that is unlocked

1854
02:28:39,560 --> 02:28:50,200
by the Steam Deck compared to those other two. And also the ability to attach software to it is like I have literally bought games that I go,

1855
02:28:50,920 --> 02:28:56,920
I would never play this game except that I'm going to be stuck somewhere with only a handheld

1856
02:28:56,920 --> 02:29:02,040
and it's a perfect game to play on my handheld. Like I would never play Vampire Survivors on my desktop.

1857
02:29:02,840 --> 02:29:06,280
Never. I wouldn't touch that game on my desktop.

1858
02:29:06,280 --> 02:29:11,400
Not because it's a bad game. I probably have like 30 hours in it, 35 hours in it.

1859
02:29:11,400 --> 02:29:13,720
But it's all on my ally, all of it.

1860
02:29:14,840 --> 02:29:18,520
It's just it's a mobile game for me. It's like I have 10 minutes.

1861
02:29:19,480 --> 02:29:24,600
Yeah, I'll just fire up Vampire Survivors. Yeah, my main thing was expectations.

1862
02:29:24,600 --> 02:29:29,880
The other one was highly related to your other comment of like the future stuff,

1863
02:29:29,880 --> 02:29:36,040
because the 13 million Wii U sold were sold to a bunch of people that

1864
02:29:40,440 --> 02:29:41,000
I don't know.

1865
02:29:43,720 --> 02:29:47,640
Weren't super enthusiastic, I guess. I liked my Wii U a lot, actually.

1866
02:29:47,640 --> 02:29:49,880
But most people that I knew that got one were like,

1867
02:29:50,680 --> 02:29:54,760
eh, it's kind of a Wii. And but your big thing was Mario Kart.

1868
02:29:55,320 --> 02:29:59,000
You played the crap out of Mario Kart 8. It was incredible. If Mario Kart 8 didn't exist,

1869
02:29:59,000 --> 02:30:02,680
I don't think I would look back on the Wii U at nearly as positively.

1870
02:30:02,680 --> 02:30:07,720
There were cool things about it, but really it was a Mario Kart 8 machine. So if you really loved Mario Kart 8,

1871
02:30:07,720 --> 02:30:11,320
the Wii U was a banger of a console. Yeah, but if not.

1872
02:30:11,320 --> 02:30:14,680
Or like that cool four player.

1873
02:30:14,680 --> 02:30:19,080
Dude. Side scroller. This is the reason why it would still look good to me,

1874
02:30:19,080 --> 02:30:22,120
because I think it was Mario Brothers Wii U,

1875
02:30:22,920 --> 02:30:25,320
something like that. Mario Brothers U, that's what it was.

1876
02:30:26,280 --> 02:30:31,000
You could play four characters playing the actual side scrolling game,

1877
02:30:31,000 --> 02:30:35,480
and then you had one like kind of God mode character that could like put down little platforms for them,

1878
02:30:35,480 --> 02:30:40,360
which ultimately turned into, as someone was jumping, you put down a platform in their way

1879
02:30:40,360 --> 02:30:42,840
so that they smack into it and fall down and you troll your friends.

1880
02:30:43,400 --> 02:30:49,000
That was really fun. The actual like unique controller tablet thing

1881
02:30:49,000 --> 02:30:54,120
was actually really cool. But anyways, the buyers of the Switch,

1882
02:30:55,160 --> 02:30:57,560
the Steam Deck, not the Switch,

1883
02:30:59,480 --> 02:31:05,080
are like really into it. Like I see a surprising amount of them on planes.

1884
02:31:05,080 --> 02:31:08,120
Oh yeah. All the time.

1885
02:31:08,120 --> 02:31:10,920
Oh yeah. And there's that like, wait, what's that?

1886
02:31:11,960 --> 02:31:16,680
And maybe that person who asked that question isn't going to buy it now, because it's like kind of two years old at this point, whatever.

1887
02:31:16,680 --> 02:31:20,680
Three and a half. Three and a half, sure. Wow, that's, wow, it's been a while.

1888
02:31:21,640 --> 02:31:25,000
But they might get interested in other handhelds. They might wait for the next one, whatever.

1889
02:31:25,000 --> 02:31:27,960
But it's that first one that doesn't necessarily sell

1890
02:31:28,520 --> 02:31:32,520
as crazy as it could, just because it wasn't as known.

1891
02:31:32,520 --> 02:31:36,520
And it's quite a daring piece of technology to put out there, like my goodness,

1892
02:31:36,520 --> 02:31:39,960
especially with Steam OS.

1893
02:31:39,960 --> 02:31:42,120
But I suspect the next one will do even better.

1894
02:31:44,120 --> 02:31:45,160
I heard back from Dave.

1895
02:31:51,080 --> 02:31:54,680
Oh, the holidays, sorry. So yeah, sorry, Mr. Calls.

1896
02:31:55,640 --> 02:31:59,080
We do have time to try between Black Friday and Boxing Day.

1897
02:31:59,080 --> 02:32:04,040
Plan was to hold out until the holiday promotions are over to minimize stacking discounted cards

1898
02:32:04,040 --> 02:32:07,320
on additional discounted offers. Yes.

1899
02:32:09,240 --> 02:32:13,320
So that was my understanding too, but apparently we ran it now anyway.

1900
02:32:13,880 --> 02:32:17,640
We'll be tracking redemptions to see how customers spend the cards over time.

1901
02:32:19,240 --> 02:32:22,200
Okay. Well.

1902
02:32:23,400 --> 02:32:26,280
Hope you wanted a cash injection. Nope.

1903
02:32:27,560 --> 02:32:33,160
I'm okay right now. I was, well, I don't know what to say then.

1904
02:32:33,160 --> 02:32:36,680
All I've managed to do today was take a 10% bite

1905
02:32:36,680 --> 02:32:39,960
out of what was going to be the Black Friday cash injection.

1906
02:32:40,840 --> 02:32:43,880
Yeah. Oh, whatever. You know what?

1907
02:32:44,760 --> 02:32:45,560
Merry Christmas.

1908
02:32:48,520 --> 02:32:51,640
Yeah, they'll be fine. They'll be all right. They already got everything.

1909
02:32:51,640 --> 02:32:52,120
Who cares?

1910
02:32:55,080 --> 02:33:02,920
Speaking of not having everything, South Korean government loses 858 terabytes of data in fire.

1911
02:33:04,440 --> 02:33:10,680
Whoa. A battery fire on September 26th consisted of 384 battery packs

1912
02:33:10,680 --> 02:33:14,200
resulted in the destruction of 96 government computer systems.

1913
02:33:14,200 --> 02:33:18,120
Well, 95 of those systems did have some form of backup.

1914
02:33:18,120 --> 02:33:23,320
One system known as the G drive. G meaning government, not Google.

1915
02:33:23,320 --> 02:33:24,520
Reportedly couldn't.

1916
02:33:26,360 --> 02:33:29,640
Okay. Have a backup system due to its large capacity.

1917
02:33:31,160 --> 02:33:33,720
That couldn't is a big word. That's not true.

1918
02:33:34,280 --> 02:33:38,040
Rendering all 858 terabytes completely gone.

1919
02:33:38,040 --> 02:33:43,960
G drive was used by staff to store documents and allocated 30 gigabytes of space per public official.

1920
02:33:43,960 --> 02:33:49,320
So it's all their personal stuff. That's brutal. The Ministry of the Interior and Safety

1921
02:33:49,320 --> 02:33:52,360
originally issued guidelines that all work materials

1922
02:33:52,360 --> 02:33:55,880
should be stored on the G drive. Wow.

1923
02:33:55,880 --> 02:34:00,600
That's nuts. As for the other 95 computers that did have backups,

1924
02:34:00,600 --> 02:34:05,480
only 62% were backed up daily with the remaining 38% backed up monthly.

1925
02:34:05,480 --> 02:34:08,520
That's a big jump. Leaving additional data loss concerns.

1926
02:34:09,160 --> 02:34:11,640
Oh, so there's more than 858 terabytes lost.

1927
02:34:13,000 --> 02:34:17,080
Nice. Wow. Overall, the fire impacted government email,

1928
02:34:17,080 --> 02:34:22,680
online postal services, petition services, and the national 119 emergency service.

1929
02:34:23,240 --> 02:34:26,760
I don't actually know why everyone uses different ones.

1930
02:34:28,040 --> 02:34:31,240
119 feels very inspired by 911.

1931
02:34:32,680 --> 02:34:35,880
That's a very North America centric point of view.

1932
02:34:36,280 --> 02:34:39,720
How do you know 911 wasn't inspired by 119? Telephone.

1933
02:34:39,720 --> 02:34:41,880
Prove it. Who made telephone?

1934
02:34:43,400 --> 02:34:48,840
It was probably the way that I described. I can't guarantee that, but I'm just guessing.

1935
02:34:51,480 --> 02:34:55,240
Emergency services number was first.

1936
02:34:56,120 --> 02:34:59,080
Okay, AI go. 999.

1937
02:35:00,120 --> 02:35:03,960
Wow. Rect. Sure. Why don't we all just use that?

1938
02:35:03,960 --> 02:35:08,520
Absolutely wrecked. Sure. Well, okay. That doesn't actually, that doesn't prove any point.

1939
02:35:08,520 --> 02:35:13,640
Reconnated. That doesn't prove any point. You're talking like, you're sounding like someone who was wrecked.

1940
02:35:13,640 --> 02:35:19,000
That doesn't prove any point. You sound like someone who doesn't know. That doesn't prove any point at all.

1941
02:35:20,360 --> 02:35:23,640
It proves that 911 is not the right one. Sure.

1942
02:35:23,640 --> 02:35:26,520
So 911 should be 999. Sure.

1943
02:35:27,160 --> 02:35:30,200
And 119 should just also be 999.

1944
02:35:30,200 --> 02:35:34,280
Sure. Why does it change? 999 was a bad first choice.

1945
02:35:34,280 --> 02:35:38,920
Yeah, I kind of think you should change it at least once. 999 was for rotary phones.

1946
02:35:39,640 --> 02:35:43,560
Oh, that's interesting, but that would take too long. That would take a really long time.

1947
02:35:45,960 --> 02:35:51,080
Yeah, okay. I mean, some kids still could. Debate 119 versus 911.

1948
02:35:51,080 --> 02:35:54,680
No, I don't think I need to. Anyways, yeah, moving on.

1949
02:35:54,680 --> 02:35:57,480
So it was more than 858 terabytes that they lost.

1950
02:35:59,080 --> 02:36:02,280
Since the incident, one employee involved in the data recovery process has

1951
02:36:04,680 --> 02:36:09,960
taken their own life, themselves. Four other individuals have been arrested

1952
02:36:09,960 --> 02:36:13,080
and are actively being investigated on whether professional negligence

1953
02:36:13,080 --> 02:36:17,640
may have contributed to the fire. Honestly, blaming the employees at this point

1954
02:36:17,640 --> 02:36:20,760
is the least-based thing that you could possibly do.

1955
02:36:20,760 --> 02:36:27,640
I think it's time to just own the responsibility that you didn't feel like spending another 100 grand

1956
02:36:27,640 --> 02:36:31,640
on another petabyte of data to have a second copy of this stuff.

1957
02:36:31,640 --> 02:36:33,960
And, uh, wow.

1958
02:36:35,640 --> 02:36:39,560
The South Korean government has reported a recovery rate of only 17.8%.

1959
02:36:40,600 --> 02:36:46,200
Oh, with a full recovery expected to take a month. How are they possibly hoping to get a full recovery of this

1960
02:36:46,200 --> 02:36:50,440
if it burned down and there wasn't a backup? That just sounds like nonsense.

1961
02:36:52,280 --> 02:36:57,400
I mean, I'll be honest with you. Maybe they mean... No, there's no way I can say maybe they mean the services.

1962
02:36:57,400 --> 02:37:00,440
As someone who has lost data from a petabyte project,

1963
02:37:01,160 --> 02:37:06,520
it was a very conscious decision. I made the decision fully understanding

1964
02:37:06,520 --> 02:37:11,720
that I wasn't backing up this data to not back it up based on cost.

1965
02:37:12,280 --> 02:37:16,040
That was the only reason that we didn't back it up

1966
02:37:16,040 --> 02:37:20,440
because that data was not essential. So it was all archived projects

1967
02:37:21,240 --> 02:37:23,560
and I didn't feel like spending money on it.

1968
02:37:24,680 --> 02:37:28,200
So to hear anything other than we didn't back this up

1969
02:37:28,200 --> 02:37:31,560
because we didn't feel like spending money on it, is horse shit.

1970
02:37:33,320 --> 02:37:38,200
And I throw it at you. I have no idea on the legitimacy of this,

1971
02:37:38,200 --> 02:37:41,560
but it's mullets in full point chat said the fire also happened

1972
02:37:41,560 --> 02:37:45,080
on the same day investigation was supposed to start on corruption related things.

1973
02:37:48,760 --> 02:37:50,600
Okay, so there's more to it. Maybe.

1974
02:37:52,440 --> 02:37:56,360
I don't know. That's not from our notes. I have no idea. But if you're interested, maybe...

1975
02:37:56,360 --> 02:37:58,920
Nae Nae says they did have two copies

1976
02:37:59,560 --> 02:38:03,000
on the same system in the same data center. You knew what I meant, Nae Nae.

1977
02:38:09,000 --> 02:38:12,680
All right. Are we talking about... Oh wait, have we finished sponsors yet?

1978
02:38:12,680 --> 02:38:15,960
This thing, no. Uh, no.

1979
02:38:15,960 --> 02:38:19,800
We have one topic left, so we should probably do those right now.

1980
02:38:19,800 --> 02:38:23,000
Yeah, I won't. And then we can talk about the steam machine after that.

1981
02:38:23,640 --> 02:38:29,320
Oh, okay. Once I get it back together. YouTube no longer permabands people.

1982
02:38:29,320 --> 02:38:33,400
It used to be that YouTube took steps. Wait, shouldn't we do the sponsors?

1983
02:38:33,400 --> 02:38:38,040
I thought you wanted to do a topic. We have to do the sponsors so that we have one topic left after that.

1984
02:38:38,040 --> 02:38:41,160
They'll have After Dark after that. So we do sponsors in that After Dark?

1985
02:38:42,200 --> 02:38:45,720
Yeah. Okay. After Dark is great. People love After Dark.

1986
02:38:45,720 --> 02:38:48,440
They'll stay for After Dark. Okay, sure. It's the best part of the show.

1987
02:38:49,000 --> 02:38:53,080
Yeah. I just, I just force my way through the rest of it. I only like After Dark.

1988
02:38:53,080 --> 02:38:58,520
Pretty much. I'm kidding.

1989
02:38:58,520 --> 02:39:01,960
We have to wade through the topic so we can get to the real juice.

1990
02:39:02,840 --> 02:39:07,160
Anyway, so it used to be that YouTube would permaband you

1991
02:39:07,160 --> 02:39:11,080
and then you were permaband. And they took steps to prevent you from creating a new account.

1992
02:39:11,640 --> 02:39:14,920
Well, now YouTube believes in second chances.

1993
02:39:16,040 --> 02:39:19,960
Our long held approach of enforcing lifetime terminations can be difficult for creators.

1994
02:39:21,000 --> 02:39:25,400
Blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, appeals. Starting today, some previously terminated creators

1995
02:39:25,400 --> 02:39:29,560
will have the opportunity to request a new YouTube channel.

1996
02:39:31,240 --> 02:39:36,120
This is a fresh start. You can re-upload any of your prior videos

1997
02:39:36,120 --> 02:39:41,080
that are within our community guidelines. How will you decide who gets a new channel?

1998
02:39:41,080 --> 02:39:46,440
Oh God, man, there's some stuff that just like... That's heavy. There's people that really should not be let back on the platform.

1999
02:39:46,440 --> 02:39:49,960
100%. Whether the creator committed particularly severe

2000
02:39:49,960 --> 02:39:53,480
or persistent violations, whether the creator is on or off platform activity harmed

2001
02:39:53,480 --> 02:40:00,280
or may continue to harm the YouTube community, like channels that endanger kids' safety, that's good.

2002
02:40:01,640 --> 02:40:08,200
Not everybody seems to be that concerned with holding accountable people who endanger kids' safety.

2003
02:40:08,200 --> 02:40:12,360
There's some files, I think, that there's probably

2004
02:40:12,360 --> 02:40:15,720
some people are hoping would burn down in a government data center fire.

2005
02:40:16,840 --> 02:40:20,520
But I don't know, at some point... Yeah, we should probably release those files,

2006
02:40:20,520 --> 02:40:23,560
all of them, every single part. Should release all of them. Yeah.

2007
02:40:24,520 --> 02:40:29,080
Don't leave anything out. What about monetization? You can apply for it.

2008
02:40:32,280 --> 02:40:35,480
Okay, man, I'm having real mixed feelings on this.

2009
02:40:35,480 --> 02:40:40,520
I feel like having this be like, at our discretion, maybe some people will maybe be allowed,

2010
02:40:41,160 --> 02:40:45,160
is a huge can of worms. And I just don't understand why they would open it up.

2011
02:40:45,160 --> 02:40:48,680
Because if they don't let someone back, they're making like a...

2012
02:40:48,680 --> 02:40:51,960
They're making... Because everything's polarized now.

2013
02:40:51,960 --> 02:40:55,880
Oh yeah. If they don't let someone back, they're making a specific judgment

2014
02:40:55,880 --> 02:40:59,560
about that specific individual. And if they do allow someone back,

2015
02:40:59,560 --> 02:41:03,480
they're making a specific judgment about that specific individual.

2016
02:41:03,480 --> 02:41:08,280
Like, there was this... One of the first channels that I was aware of being banned,

2017
02:41:08,280 --> 02:41:12,200
probably wasn't the first channel to ever be banned, but it was a big channel.

2018
02:41:12,920 --> 02:41:17,160
And it getting banned was kind of a big deal, was this channel called David's Farm.

2019
02:41:17,960 --> 02:41:21,000
And it was kind of a lot of what it sounds like.

2020
02:41:21,000 --> 02:41:25,960
Just like, it was a very early farming YouTube channel.

2021
02:41:26,920 --> 02:41:30,120
But there was very unsafe,

2022
02:41:31,320 --> 02:41:35,080
very disgusting animal cruelty stuff that happened.

2023
02:41:35,960 --> 02:41:39,640
And just egregious violations of anything

2024
02:41:39,640 --> 02:41:43,160
that would be considered remotely acceptable for upload to YouTube.

2025
02:41:43,160 --> 02:41:44,360
And I'm sitting here going like,

2026
02:41:46,360 --> 02:41:48,440
would they let someone who...

2027
02:41:49,400 --> 02:41:54,680
Content warning. Extremely graphic description incoming.

2028
02:41:54,680 --> 02:41:58,440
So mute your mic for a second. And I'm gonna go like this when it's safe.

2029
02:42:00,440 --> 02:42:05,880
Mute your mic. Hear headphones. Yeah. Like, this is a channel that took a live pig,

2030
02:42:06,440 --> 02:42:10,200
pinned it down, and chainsawed it in half while alive.

2031
02:42:11,720 --> 02:42:12,280
Safe now.

2032
02:42:16,520 --> 02:42:22,920
Why? That is a person that clearly is disturbed in the head

2033
02:42:24,040 --> 02:42:28,280
and does not need to share anything they have to say with anybody.

2034
02:42:29,080 --> 02:42:31,880
Sorry, I'm standing by that.

2035
02:42:32,440 --> 02:42:32,680
Yeah.

2036
02:42:37,160 --> 02:42:41,080
You know? So if I see something like that come back,

2037
02:42:41,080 --> 02:42:45,320
I'm sitting here going, no, lifetime ban was the right kind of ban. You know, I don't know, dude.

2038
02:42:47,720 --> 02:42:51,560
Like, that is, like, that's just, it's monstrous, you know?

2039
02:42:55,960 --> 02:42:59,560
Yeah. There's a lot of people saying that it has to do with Trump's ban.

2040
02:43:01,320 --> 02:43:08,200
So, oh, so this is just a policy to have something to point at

2041
02:43:08,200 --> 02:43:13,560
when they violate what previously would have been the policy

2042
02:43:13,560 --> 02:43:18,040
and reinstate an account. You think it's that simple? They're just, it might be.

2043
02:43:18,040 --> 02:43:20,520
I just, I've seen some comments about this. I have no idea.

2044
02:43:21,480 --> 02:43:25,000
Where's my thing? We don't have any notes on that.

2045
02:43:25,000 --> 02:43:29,960
I don't know anything about it. I thought Trump's ban was overturned, like, quite a while ago,

2046
02:43:30,520 --> 02:43:33,000
but like you said, maybe it's just something to point to now.

2047
02:43:33,960 --> 02:43:38,040
No idea. Interesting. I honestly didn't even know he was banned off YouTube.

2048
02:43:38,760 --> 02:43:41,880
Oh, yeah, yeah. It was after the January 6th thing.

2049
02:43:41,880 --> 02:43:45,240
Oh, yeah. That makes sense. But he was reinstated in 2023.

2050
02:43:46,360 --> 02:43:51,560
Yeah, I don't know. So, who knows?

2051
02:43:52,200 --> 02:43:55,480
Yeah. Moon pies.

2052
02:43:56,520 --> 02:43:58,040
What a time to be alive.

2053
02:44:00,840 --> 02:44:03,880
It's going to be after dark in a minute. Let's get through a couple of slides.

2054
02:44:03,880 --> 02:44:06,520
That sounds like two minute papers. I mean, what?

2055
02:44:07,400 --> 02:44:10,840
What a paper. Time to be alive. Love that, man.

2056
02:44:11,880 --> 02:44:15,400
What do you want? This. Yeah, after the sponsor spots.

2057
02:44:15,400 --> 02:44:20,520
Okay. For the love of God. Okay. The show is brought to you today by whatever Luke didn't read already.

2058
02:44:20,520 --> 02:44:23,560
Start with Squarespace. Hey, Luke. Knock, knock.

2059
02:44:24,360 --> 02:44:29,240
Who's there? Definitely not a door-to-door salesman,

2060
02:44:29,240 --> 02:44:33,320
because they've probably got an awesome website instead built with Squarespace.

2061

2070
02:45:19,400 --> 02:45:22,680
Knock, knock. Who's there? Not a door-to-door salesman,

2071
02:45:22,680 --> 02:45:25,240
because they have a website that uses Squarespace.

2072
02:45:26,600 --> 02:45:31,400
Oh my God. The show is also brought to you by Ubiquiti.

2073
02:45:31,400 --> 02:45:36,840
We hosted our inaugural Whale Land event at Smash Chance last week, two weeks ago.

2074
02:45:37,400 --> 02:45:42,120
I think it was two weeks ago. And while we're still working on our video taking you deep behind the scenes

2075
02:45:42,120 --> 02:45:46,440
and checking out some of the setup, coming soon, TM, we can show you this picture.

2076
02:45:48,200 --> 02:45:52,520
Okay, that's Chase. It's Chase. Thanks for all your hard work, Chase.

2077
02:45:52,520 --> 02:45:54,680
And also thanks to our sponsor, Ubiquiti.

2078
02:45:55,720 --> 02:46:00,200
They've powered up all of our networking. And boy, was there a lot to consider

2079
02:46:00,760 --> 02:46:05,560
for making sure that our 8v8 gaming setup was operational, video coming soon as well, TM,

2080
02:46:05,560 --> 02:46:10,280
to keeping all 250 attendees gaming throughout the weekend.

2081
02:46:10,920 --> 02:46:14,120
Good thing their latest Pro XG48 PoE switches

2082
02:46:14,120 --> 02:46:17,640
and access points are simple to deploy and reach up to 10 gig speeds.

2083
02:46:18,200 --> 02:46:22,680
It might seem like a lot of things to keep track of, but fortunately their license-free Unify site manager

2084
02:46:22,680 --> 02:46:26,040
has a clean user-friendly design. So whether it's for personal use,

2085
02:46:26,040 --> 02:46:30,920
for large events, or even massive stadiums, you can count on Ubiquiti to make networking easy.

2086

2088
02:46:42,120 --> 02:46:43,720
We'll have that linked in the video description.

2089
02:46:47,080 --> 02:46:50,600
It's after dark, let's do it. All right, that sounds good to me.

2090
02:46:50,600 --> 02:46:53,560
Oh, wait. Do you have another topic? Did you do...

2091
02:46:55,480 --> 02:46:59,160
Oh, yeah. Show us. It's not quite done.

2092
02:46:59,160 --> 02:47:00,760
I'll bring it over right now. Okay.

2093
02:47:02,200 --> 02:47:05,480
All right, just make sure it still works. Still works.

2094
02:47:05,480 --> 02:47:08,920
I mean, why don't you just point your camera? I heard him do a little squeak,

2095
02:47:08,920 --> 02:47:12,040
and I knew he got it. I knew something happened.

2096
02:47:12,040 --> 02:47:15,080
I was earlier the show, I was like... I got the dopamine squeak.

2097
02:47:15,080 --> 02:47:18,520
Yes, exactly, I heard it. And I was like, oop, we're getting something good.

2098
02:47:20,040 --> 02:47:24,040
I don't know what exactly, like I don't know if the... Maybe he just got the light to turn on or something, but...

2099
02:47:26,520 --> 02:47:30,040
Is it boot? I don't know. No screen, I guess?

2100
02:47:31,320 --> 02:47:35,640
Yeah. Okay, well, we'll see what happens. I guess you want to give me your HDMI cable?

2101
02:47:35,640 --> 02:47:38,040
Sure. Dude, I'm so stoked.

2102
02:47:38,920 --> 02:47:41,240
I don't want to throw my bottle. There we go. I actually work for...

2103
02:47:42,200 --> 02:47:45,800
Been intermittent. Somebody's... Oh, my power cable's not here anymore.

2104
02:47:46,600 --> 02:47:49,720
Crunched a bunch of cables in there, maybe when they tried to reassemble it.

2105
02:47:50,520 --> 02:47:53,640
I don't know what you're talking about. So...

2106
02:47:53,640 --> 02:47:57,400
He's blaming me. Can you believe he's blaming me? I don't think he was.

2107
02:47:57,400 --> 02:48:00,040
Oh, he was. Dan, you were blaming me, right?

2108
02:48:00,600 --> 02:48:03,720
No, I don't know. Might have been sent from factory like that.

2109
02:48:04,440 --> 02:48:08,920
See? God, it's British humor.

2110
02:48:10,520 --> 02:48:14,680
That's surely it's the funniest. You know, I mean, it wasn't in your position

2111
02:48:14,680 --> 02:48:20,280
for so many years. I just assumed he meant somebody else. No, he wouldn't take shots at some random.

2112
02:48:22,040 --> 02:48:24,200
I mean, it was a blameless accusation.

2113
02:48:25,400 --> 02:48:29,640
See, you can tell from his tone. You can tell from his tone how blameful it is.

2114
02:48:29,640 --> 02:48:34,120
I've seen enough insides of things that just blame a general person,

2115
02:48:34,120 --> 02:48:36,360
and then they can be guilty. See, he blamed the general.

2116
02:48:39,320 --> 02:48:42,840
Oh, I wonder if the front button is actually...

2117
02:48:42,840 --> 02:48:45,480
Make sure not to dock someone with pulling up the sign in.

2118
02:48:47,160 --> 02:48:49,560
What? I mean,

2119
02:48:52,520 --> 02:48:56,440
I think the sign in is probably going to be a username,

2120
02:48:56,440 --> 02:48:58,920
worst case scenario. I think we're probably going to be okay.

2121
02:48:59,640 --> 02:49:03,000
Watch it be like full first and last name of a Valve employee.

2122
02:49:03,000 --> 02:49:06,680
I know, right? I mean, it'd be pretty funny.

2123
02:49:08,840 --> 02:49:12,360
There's no way they still work that way. No, they haven't even noticed, have they? Gabe, no. Valve.

2124
02:49:12,360 --> 02:49:16,600
Oh, hey, look. Look at Glove. Hey! Yeah, were you going to bring it over here, Dan?

2125
02:49:16,600 --> 02:49:20,920
Yeah, why was it over here? We want to put it on the screen so people can see.

2126
02:49:23,400 --> 02:49:27,000
Well, in fairness to him, the first thing I said was, Dan, why don't we just do it over there?

2127
02:49:27,240 --> 02:49:31,080
So did you take away the power cable?

2128
02:49:31,080 --> 02:49:33,960
He needs the power cable. Can I have that, please? Come on, hey.

2129
02:49:45,000 --> 02:49:46,120
Dan, you hit the mic.

2130
02:49:49,240 --> 02:49:52,280
God. Some people's kids, man.

2131
02:49:52,920 --> 02:49:57,480
Okay. Should we move the banner so they can see?

2132
02:49:57,480 --> 02:50:00,600
Yeah, yeah, yeah. Like up or like, oh, hold on. He just sat down. We don't need it.

2133
02:50:00,600 --> 02:50:05,880
No, no, no, we don't. Is that opaque or is it transparent? You know what, just add a bit more translucency.

2134
02:50:05,880 --> 02:50:08,120
That way people's merge messages can still show. Yes.

2135
02:50:09,560 --> 02:50:11,560
Please. Yes.

2136
02:50:12,600 --> 02:50:14,680
Thank you. Hey, there we go. Oh, wow.

2137
02:50:18,120 --> 02:50:20,280
Did you, what? Did you push it correctly?

2138
02:50:22,760 --> 02:50:27,000
What the heck? Yeah, who broke it now, smart guy?

2139
02:50:27,000 --> 02:50:30,040
As far as I can tell, Linus had it back for like a minute

2140
02:50:30,040 --> 02:50:32,760
and just destroyed everything. No way. That was, no.

2141
02:50:33,320 --> 02:50:36,680
That sounds. I destroyed nothing. That sounds lower accurate.

2142
02:50:36,680 --> 02:50:40,120
No, I destroyed nothing. That sounds lower accurate to me.

2143
02:50:41,560 --> 02:50:44,760
Stop. Oh, I'm just not sure if this fan's going to be able to spin.

2144
02:50:45,560 --> 02:50:49,320
The mount on it is broken. Yeah. It's really temperamental.

2145
02:50:50,280 --> 02:50:54,440
Oh, okay. So, so it broke.

2146
02:50:58,360 --> 02:51:02,040
Yeah, I think maybe it's broken. I want to, I want to display.

2147
02:51:02,040 --> 02:51:05,160
Oh, that was barely in there. It was in there.

2148
02:51:06,040 --> 02:51:09,320
That was barely in there. It was totally in there. You don't want to plug things in?

2149
02:51:09,320 --> 02:51:12,840
I know. I'm going to start to touch him. Plug in the freaking cable.

2150
02:51:12,840 --> 02:51:18,920
It was plugged in. What was that, dude? He pulled it out with like one one hundredth of a pound of force.

2151
02:51:20,280 --> 02:51:25,000
Oh, is it off again? No, it just hasn't turned on in a while.

2152
02:51:25,000 --> 02:51:28,280
I plugged it in. No, you did not. I did.

2153
02:51:28,280 --> 02:51:31,640
You did not at all. I did plug it in. You did not. I did.

2154
02:51:31,640 --> 02:51:35,880
They can't see it. It was not properly plugged in. It was plugged in at all.

2155
02:51:35,880 --> 02:51:40,920
You know what? It's possible. Dan, what do you think? I don't know. Whoever plugged it in last time probably didn't plug it in.

2156
02:51:42,520 --> 02:51:46,200
It was on here like this. I probably plugged it in until it hit this.

2157
02:51:46,200 --> 02:51:49,960
It was very difficult to plug in. It's a line assist defense.

2158
02:51:49,960 --> 02:51:53,560
I think that, I think that's probably what happened is I plugged it in and it felt like it moved

2159
02:51:53,560 --> 02:51:56,920
and then it hit this thing right here because it hangs down a little bit. Yeah, that makes sense.

2160
02:51:56,920 --> 02:52:00,680
That's dumb. Because the power cable has a bit of a... I didn't plug it in.

2161
02:52:00,680 --> 02:52:03,800
Box and something. Do we have an, is there an output at all? Checking.

2162
02:52:03,800 --> 02:52:06,920
On my laptop? That's what it was before.

2163
02:52:06,920 --> 02:52:10,360
Oh yeah, that seems to be cash. Yeah, that's the last frame it had.

2164
02:52:10,360 --> 02:52:15,000
I have 800 by 600.

2165
02:52:15,640 --> 02:52:21,720
Oh, okay. So that's probably a biosplash screen then. Let me, so you're a Luke laptop.

2166
02:52:21,720 --> 02:52:24,520
Wait, you took the storage drive out of it down. How the hell are we supposed to boot it?

2167
02:52:25,160 --> 02:52:29,400
Well, the fact that it turned on I think is good enough. I'll bring that over back in one sec.

2168
02:52:29,960 --> 02:52:33,560
Let's just make sure that we can get. Oh, well, I mean, yeah. I think we wanted to see what it...

2169
02:52:33,560 --> 02:52:39,160
That was why we were going to show the screen. Why do I even know it was going to work in like five minutes ago?

2170
02:52:39,160 --> 02:52:41,560
That's fair. I am happy we got the ring.

2171
02:52:45,960 --> 02:52:48,440
Yeah, he wants it to not work. It's better for camera.

2172
02:52:49,080 --> 02:52:54,120
No, I wanted to... Oh, yes. Sorry, I forgot that was in our script. You know, fail for content or whatever?

2173
02:52:54,120 --> 02:52:58,680
Yeah, that's all we do. That is not a principle for us. He did mean to play it properly.

2174
02:52:58,680 --> 02:53:00,440
Core tenant. But he just knew the views...

2175
02:53:04,360 --> 02:53:10,680
What? What do you do? He dropped the drive directly onto the motherboard.

2176
02:53:10,680 --> 02:53:17,160
That's amazing. But you can't make the stuff up, dude. It's just...

2177
02:53:17,160 --> 02:53:18,280
It's a padded drive.

2178
02:53:20,200 --> 02:53:22,200
It's cushioned. Oh, my goodness.

2179
02:53:25,320 --> 02:53:28,440
This man's an icon. Oh, man.

2180
02:53:30,520 --> 02:53:33,960
All right, we'll see how this goes. All right. Well, maybe it won't.

2181
02:53:33,960 --> 02:53:41,400
We can do... Yeah. That... Yeah, we can start merge messages while we tinker around with this.

2182
02:53:44,200 --> 02:53:47,640
Uh, sure. Yeah, let's see. Dan, have you been doing merge messages at all?

2183
02:53:48,440 --> 02:53:51,800
Well, we have had like 300.

2184
02:53:51,800 --> 02:53:55,000
So I've been trying. Oh, my God.

2185
02:53:55,000 --> 02:53:58,280
This is... What hole went into it on some of these? Oh, my God. This is...

2186
02:53:58,280 --> 02:54:02,840
Dude, this is f***ed. We're good. This guy bought $300 in gift cards.

2187
02:54:07,800 --> 02:54:10,520
Is anybody buying anything other than gift cards?

2188
02:54:10,840 --> 02:54:13,480
Some people said they might buy stuff.

2189
02:54:14,440 --> 02:54:19,800
Oh, my God. Someone bought the gift card and super discounted swim trunks.

2190
02:54:21,080 --> 02:54:23,800
And a pin. Well, the pin was free.

2191
02:54:25,080 --> 02:54:25,400
F***.

2192
02:54:28,920 --> 02:54:32,120
We had a deal, you guys. You're going to buy profitable stuff.

2193
02:54:34,120 --> 02:54:38,120
Oh, my God. So many people are buying like $250 gift cards

2194
02:54:38,120 --> 02:54:40,840
or like multiple $100 gift cards.

2195
02:54:41,720 --> 02:54:48,200
What is this order? $242, $100 freaking gift card.

2196
02:54:48,200 --> 02:54:54,440
Okay. No, you bought a couple of scribe drivers. Thank you, Jacob, for being a team player.

2197
02:54:56,840 --> 02:55:03,720
So I'm going to jump in the incoming and help Dan. Okay. Uh, uh, I mean, uh, Dan left.

2198
02:55:05,080 --> 02:55:08,200
He just left. He was there and he left. I might have too.

2199
02:55:08,200 --> 02:55:11,320
Luke, we're on our own now. We could do it.

2200
02:55:11,320 --> 02:55:15,000
We're fine. Oh, well, that's the, that's the steam machine.

2201
02:55:15,560 --> 02:55:19,720
So much for that. Okay. So should I just do curated ones on my own?

2202
02:55:20,360 --> 02:55:22,440
I can read it to you if you want. No, I'll do it. I'll do it.

2203
02:55:23,720 --> 02:55:27,480
Joseph Bees writes, what how when showers?

2204
02:55:27,480 --> 02:55:32,520
I managed to see the Joseph musical in the summer. It was great and brought back memories.

2205
02:55:33,080 --> 02:55:36,120
Just wondering what makes it special to Linus.

2206
02:55:36,120 --> 02:55:41,480
May I suggest PC build guide? The musical, you know, with Riley's talents.

2207
02:55:43,640 --> 02:55:47,880
That could actually be pretty great. Some of those sponsors. I feel like I would really enjoy it.

2208
02:55:47,880 --> 02:55:51,240
Dude, the, um, that's right over your power button. Just the heads up.

2209
02:55:51,240 --> 02:55:54,760
The, whatever the most recent one was, uh,

2210
02:55:54,760 --> 02:55:58,200
Oh, on the underwater, the underwater, um, Yes.

2211
02:55:58,200 --> 02:56:02,280
That one, the spot on there is hilarious. I think I watched it twice or three times.

2212
02:56:02,280 --> 02:56:07,400
Yep. Oh dude, amazing. I think a lot of people from the thumbnail, by the way,

2213
02:56:07,400 --> 02:56:10,360
might have assumed that was another like pool cleaner or something.

2214
02:56:10,920 --> 02:56:15,640
Yeah, we're working on updating the thumbnail. I think we're going to change the thing in my hand to a boom box.

2215
02:56:16,760 --> 02:56:20,760
So then it seems like a little less obviously a product.

2216
02:56:20,760 --> 02:56:25,400
The reason we use that Bluetooth speaker was just because it seemed like,

2217
02:56:25,400 --> 02:56:29,560
so a, it tied into the initial research I did,

2218
02:56:29,560 --> 02:56:34,040
trying to find a solution where it was just a bunch of stupid Bluetooth speakers.

2219
02:56:34,040 --> 02:56:39,800
That advertise themselves as being waterproof, but actually what they meant was can get splashed on a little bit,

2220
02:56:39,800 --> 02:56:44,440
not like under, so I searched for underwater speaker and I ended up with a bunch of stupid Bluetooth speakers.

2221
02:56:44,440 --> 02:56:49,960
So it was kind of, it was kind of supposed to tie in with that. And also it just clearly looks like a speaker,

2222
02:56:49,960 --> 02:56:53,080
you know, to the modern audience.

2223
02:56:53,080 --> 02:56:59,560
But I think that the boom, but to your point, I think it looks sponsored, but it's not super.

2224
02:56:59,560 --> 02:57:03,720
I understood it wasn't, which is why I clicked on it, but it immediately looked very sponsored.

2225
02:57:03,720 --> 02:57:06,920
Yeah. So I think if we change it to a boom box above the water,

2226
02:57:06,920 --> 02:57:09,640
then that will sell it a little bit better as what it is.

2227
02:57:11,000 --> 02:57:15,320
Anyway, what's special about it for me is I think it was one of the first musicals I ever saw.

2228
02:57:15,320 --> 02:57:18,840
I went with my auntie and it was just, it was just such a great show.

2229
02:57:18,840 --> 02:57:22,760
It was such a, it was such a magic, awesome experience.

2230
02:57:22,760 --> 02:57:27,480
It, it set off what turned out to be a lifelong love of musical theater,

2231
02:57:27,480 --> 02:57:33,880
live theater in general. And Donnie is just such an incredible star.

2232
02:57:34,600 --> 02:57:36,840
It was when Donnie Osmond was playing Joseph.

2233
02:57:38,200 --> 02:57:41,320
And so yeah, when I saw it most recently with him playing Pharaoh,

2234
02:57:41,320 --> 02:57:45,080
such a cool like full circle moment.

2235
02:57:45,080 --> 02:57:48,200
And it was just magic, man. It's a, it's a great show.

2236
02:57:48,200 --> 02:57:52,200
It's just pure fun. It doesn't, oh my God, it booted up.

2237
02:57:54,200 --> 02:57:58,680
Want to show the people? Yeah, I would like to. Do you want to use Luke's cam or my cam rather?

2238
02:58:02,840 --> 02:58:08,520
Dan, push the button. I did. Oh, is there a pastor?

2239
02:58:08,520 --> 02:58:12,360
Well, no. Yeah. I mean, you'll have to move the camera, Dan, because it's not pointed at that.

2240
02:58:12,360 --> 02:58:15,560
I thought it was. Yeah. He's tethered with headphones. This is hilarious.

2241
02:58:15,560 --> 02:58:19,000
Also, your producer cam thing is up. Right. Just go to the wiping.

2242
02:58:19,000 --> 02:58:22,360
You can only do two things at a time. Okay.

2243
02:58:22,360 --> 02:58:29,240
There you go. Nailed it. Perfection. Okay. Just, you're good, Dan.

2244
02:58:29,240 --> 02:58:33,000
That's fine. It's good enough. We don't have a keyboard though, Dan.

2245
02:58:33,640 --> 02:58:39,080
Oh my God. Does it need something? Well, I mean, I, it depends if we've, and he's gone.

2246
02:58:41,240 --> 02:58:43,320
Cool. Good merge message. I'm going to archive it now.

2247
02:58:44,760 --> 02:58:47,400
Adam R writes, greetings DLL.

2248
02:58:48,200 --> 02:58:51,480
It is genuinely hard to pitch slash explain

2249
02:58:52,200 --> 02:58:58,600
YouTuber merch and there isn't really a better term. Have you considered brand names for your clothing outside of LTT Store?

2250
02:58:59,320 --> 02:59:07,160
Linus tech styles. That one's free. We are going to transition to using more creator warehouse branding for like our

2251
02:59:07,160 --> 02:59:11,480
blank products with the idea being that eventually maybe other creators would

2252
02:59:11,480 --> 02:59:21,160
use our blanks as well. Beyond that, I think we've discussed switching over to LTT rather than Linus.

2253
02:59:22,280 --> 02:59:28,360
Um, and then LTT Store could still just work and we just kind of move away from the Linus-ness.

2254
02:59:28,360 --> 02:59:32,760
Like our old stealth hoodie, for instance, was like a black on black, so it was still stealthy,

2255
02:59:32,760 --> 02:59:35,800
but it just had like Linus tech tips and giant text down the ARM.

2256
02:59:35,800 --> 02:59:42,120
We very rarely put my name on anything anymore and that's, that's highly intentional.

2257
02:59:43,240 --> 02:59:48,440
Um, Dan is doing things over there, so I'm just going to switch over to that camera.

2258
02:59:49,000 --> 02:59:56,600
But yes, it has occurred to us, but right now our overall sales volumes are so relatively low

2259
02:59:56,600 --> 03:00:00,760
that splitting out and creating a new product line with a different brand.

2260
03:00:01,960 --> 03:00:05,720
I feel like all it would really serve to do is split our run rate and I don't see how we could,

2261
03:00:06,760 --> 03:00:15,000
how we could justify it. We still, honestly speaking, are not that good at selling outside of

2262
03:00:15,960 --> 03:00:24,840
promoting it through our like YouTube channels. We still have a lot to learn about marketing without leaning on the YouTube channels as a crutch.

2263
03:00:28,520 --> 03:00:31,560
Our unique username says Linus. That was the opposite of stealthy.

2264
03:00:31,560 --> 03:00:34,520
That was a shiny Linus cringe. It wasn't shiny.

2265
03:00:35,080 --> 03:00:37,880
It was like, it was like matte black on black.

2266
03:00:39,160 --> 03:00:42,840
Yes, I agree. It's too much and that's why we don't do it anymore,

2267
03:00:42,840 --> 03:00:48,200
but I really don't think it was shiny that I don't think I can agree with that.

2268
03:00:48,200 --> 03:00:52,920
Sorry. Luke and Linus writes Gabriel.

2269
03:00:53,880 --> 03:01:03,160
You've talked about making sandals in the past. Have you thought about making boots or FR clothing work in the oil and gas industry?

2270
03:01:03,160 --> 03:01:06,600
And FR is required. P.S. play payday three.

2271
03:01:07,640 --> 03:01:19,640
You mean like fire resistant? Yeah, flame, yeah. Yeah, so we looked at doing flame retardant like either like the base material itself

2272
03:01:19,640 --> 03:01:28,760
or with coatings on the workshop jacket and ultimately I forget whether it was due to

2273
03:01:28,760 --> 03:01:33,960
like the chemical nature or we really liked the material we were using and it just wasn't

2274
03:01:33,960 --> 03:01:37,240
or if it was a certification thing, we're very low volume.

2275
03:01:37,240 --> 03:01:45,320
Like that's the thing to kind of remember always is that we are, you know, a big

2276
03:01:46,040 --> 03:01:52,280
YouTuber organization, but a little bitty company in the grand scheme of things.

2277
03:01:52,280 --> 03:02:00,600
Like we are we are ants under which the giant boots of companies like Nestle descend upon

2278
03:02:00,600 --> 03:02:04,280
and crush like we're not a huge player in the grand scheme of things.

2279
03:02:04,280 --> 03:02:12,040
So like this is impacting our ability to do cables, for instance, our USB cables are coming,

2280
03:02:12,040 --> 03:02:17,560
but certain display cables not going to name any names have just

2281
03:02:20,040 --> 03:02:29,800
unbelievable fees associated with every single SKU at every single length that could prevent us

2282
03:02:29,800 --> 03:02:33,320
from being able to make that type of display cable at all.

2283
03:02:35,160 --> 03:02:38,280
Because we just we just don't do that kind of volume.

2284
03:02:38,280 --> 03:02:50,280
So no plans for fire resistant clothing in the near future as for boots, very unlikely as well.

2285
03:02:50,280 --> 03:02:58,360
Doing doing boots requires different molds for every single size.

2286
03:02:58,360 --> 03:03:05,080
And I mean, I feel like you could you could probably go to like a Chinese boot factory

2287
03:03:05,080 --> 03:03:09,640
or something like that and they'd be able to do the molds for you for a fraction of what you'd

2288
03:03:09,640 --> 03:03:16,200
be able to do somewhere else, but between tariffs and between it being very challenging to control

2289
03:03:16,200 --> 03:03:22,120
the quality of a product like that, I just don't really see what we'd be adding to the boot category.

2290
03:03:22,120 --> 03:03:28,040
If that situation ever changes, if we find a really outstanding factory and we find a really

2291
03:03:28,040 --> 03:03:32,840
outstanding reason for our boots to exist, never say never.

2292
03:03:32,840 --> 03:03:37,640
But there are absolutely no plans for the near future also duly noted on the payday three recommendation.

2293
03:03:37,800 --> 03:03:46,040
Oh, wow, I can do a couple more if you want.

2294
03:03:46,040 --> 03:03:52,120
No idea how to read this, but here's a merge message from this.

2295
03:03:53,000 --> 03:03:55,400
Yeah, love from China.

2296
03:03:56,200 --> 03:04:01,720
Do you think that it is ethically defensible for Apple to apply double standards

2297
03:04:01,720 --> 03:04:06,680
when it comes to trading profit for surrendering iCloud servers to our government?

2298
03:04:07,880 --> 03:04:11,480
What would you do if you were in our situation?

2299
03:04:12,680 --> 03:04:20,600
No, I don't think it's defensible at all. I mean, this is one of the things that drives me so nuts about Apple.

2300
03:04:21,320 --> 03:04:26,120
And it's one of the things that Apple users flipping hate when I talk about because there is

2301
03:04:26,920 --> 03:04:33,560
no defense of this. You can't get on stage and talk about how important user privacy is to you.

2302
03:04:34,120 --> 03:04:39,880
You can't beat your chest and talk about how uncompromising you are about user privacy

2303
03:04:42,360 --> 03:04:49,560
when you have user data in data centers that the Chinese government has unlimited access to.

2304
03:04:50,920 --> 03:05:00,680
I'm sorry, but you don't get to do that. And yeah, the Chinese government would probably just lock Apple out of the Chinese market

2305
03:05:00,680 --> 03:05:03,560
if they refused to surrender that access.

2306
03:05:05,160 --> 03:05:08,920
But that's bims the brakes then.

2307
03:05:10,840 --> 03:05:18,280
So you can't say privacy first, profit second if actually when push comes to shove, it's the other one.

2308
03:05:20,040 --> 03:05:24,840
And look, it's not like Apple's any different from the vast majority of other companies

2309
03:05:24,840 --> 03:05:29,160
who would make the same decision. Fine, just own it then.

2310
03:05:29,240 --> 03:05:32,440
That's all I'm asking. Just don't bullshit me.

2311
03:05:33,320 --> 03:05:41,400
Just say, yeah, we will comply with whatever laws in order to make sure that we can continue doing

2312
03:05:41,400 --> 03:05:44,520
business in whatever key region. Just say that then.

2313
03:05:47,160 --> 03:05:50,200
Don't pretend to be better than anybody. That's all.

2314
03:05:55,000 --> 03:05:56,680
Next up. BIOS.

2315
03:06:01,320 --> 03:06:05,640
Okay. Okay. So we're in the BIOS. Is our boot drive showing up?

2316
03:06:05,640 --> 03:06:08,600
Yeah, I didn't see it there. Yeah, there it is. Oh, cool. Okay.

2317
03:06:09,640 --> 03:06:15,320
Man, that is a fun looking BIOS. Look at, man, when did BIOS just get so boring?

2318
03:06:15,320 --> 03:06:20,280
There it goes, don't worry. Yeah, look at that. That's awesome. Do you think it might need something like...

2319
03:06:20,280 --> 03:06:25,320
Oh, like CSM or something?

2320
03:06:25,320 --> 03:06:29,320
Or, no, not CSM, the stupid legacy boot mode.

2321
03:06:29,320 --> 03:06:35,800
Hold on, just go to exit. Go to the exit one. Because sometimes the exit tab will just have a boot to this particular device.

2322
03:06:35,800 --> 03:06:36,680
Oh, yeah, this one too.

2323
03:06:41,160 --> 03:06:45,480
Nope, no dice. Yeah, back to boot then. Hard drive boot priorities, boot option one.

2324
03:06:45,480 --> 03:06:50,200
I mean, if it shows up as a boot option, theoretically, it should just go, right?

2325
03:06:50,680 --> 03:06:53,480
Oh, legacy only. Want to change storage to either?

2326
03:06:56,280 --> 03:06:59,560
Oh, no, UFI only. Okay, so we already tried legacy then.

2327
03:06:59,560 --> 03:07:02,040
Do you want to try UFI? Sure. Okay, let's see what happens.

2328
03:07:05,400 --> 03:07:09,720
F10. If F10 doesn't work, it's illegal.

2329
03:07:10,360 --> 03:07:13,880
Okay. Okay. Put them in jail. BIOS jail.

2330
03:07:13,880 --> 03:07:19,480
Yep. Kevin B asks, Linus, any updates on your daily driving of the AirPods Pro 3s?

2331
03:07:19,480 --> 03:07:22,760
I'm really looking forward to hearing your thoughts after using them for a while after

2332
03:07:22,760 --> 03:07:25,800
your fiery first impressions on ShortCircuit.

2333
03:07:27,480 --> 03:07:32,040
I flew to Dallas, Texas earlier this week.

2334
03:07:35,320 --> 03:07:43,400
The noise cancellation on the AirPods Pro 3s is so good that on a jet aircraft,

2335
03:07:44,200 --> 03:07:50,280
I could have just as easily been cruising at like 50 miles an hour on the highway.

2336
03:07:50,280 --> 03:07:53,240
Wow. Like, wow.

2337
03:07:53,800 --> 03:08:02,760
It is so good that I actually kind of wish that Apple had like a staged or a faded,

2338
03:08:03,320 --> 03:08:08,760
like a gradual change from ANC to transparency mode.

2339
03:08:08,760 --> 03:08:15,480
Is it shocking? Because it's jarring sometimes. You turn off transparency and you're like, oh, dang, it's loud in here.

2340
03:08:16,200 --> 03:08:22,680
Like you get adjusted to it. Well, I find the transparency mode on mine is louder than not having the headphones in.

2341
03:08:22,680 --> 03:08:27,720
The transparency mode on the AirPods Pro 3s is also just outstanding.

2342
03:08:27,720 --> 03:08:35,320
It's very natural. Like, even my own speech is quite natural, which is very difficult to do as far as I can tell,

2343
03:08:35,320 --> 03:08:38,680
because almost nobody executes it very well.

2344
03:08:41,800 --> 03:08:50,200
Sometimes the audio quality doesn't bother me, but there are certain situations where it is,

2345
03:08:50,200 --> 03:08:59,000
it is just not very good. Now, I have heard that there's a new update and I have finally figured out my transition

2346
03:08:59,000 --> 03:09:07,560
problems over to the iPhone Air. So once I pair my AirPods Pros to this, I should be able to apply the latest firmware update.

2347
03:09:08,040 --> 03:09:14,920
I should actually add that to my notes for the review that if Apple hasn't dealt with this yet,

2348
03:09:14,920 --> 03:09:19,000
I haven't actually checked if they haven't dealt with this yet, but if Apple still hasn't dealt with

2349
03:09:20,120 --> 03:09:25,160
there being absolutely no way to update the firmware on AirPods Pro 3s unless you also

2350
03:09:25,160 --> 03:09:28,040
have an iPhone, that is like, should be criminal basically.

2351
03:09:28,600 --> 03:09:34,200
You should be able to apply updates to your device simply by having your device.

2352
03:09:34,200 --> 03:09:38,360
Can you do it through? Oh, wait, maybe I think someone might have mentioned before that you might be able to do it

2353
03:09:38,360 --> 03:09:41,000
through iTunes. Can you do it through iTunes on PC?

2354
03:09:42,280 --> 03:09:44,440
Someone let me know. Let me know in the chat.

2355
03:09:47,560 --> 03:09:51,320
I'll just make a note for myself. Can you update without iPhone?

2356
03:09:52,280 --> 03:09:55,240
Okay, now I got that in there. That is something that I want to talk about one way or another.

2357
03:09:58,600 --> 03:10:01,480
I think that's all I kind of have to say for now.

2358
03:10:02,200 --> 03:10:09,480
They still aren't as comfortable for me, but I think I figured out why they did it because wow,

2359
03:10:09,480 --> 03:10:11,320
do they ever stay seated in your ear canal?

2360
03:10:13,320 --> 03:10:18,760
I have those problems with the IEMs staying in my ear canal,

2361
03:10:18,760 --> 03:10:24,040
so I use the kind of older version where it doesn't go in your ear there.

2362
03:10:26,040 --> 03:10:35,640
Ear buds. Ear buds instead of IEMs. But I got the AirPods Non-Pro 4, I think it's proper name,

2363
03:10:35,640 --> 03:10:41,240
and that has ANC and transparency mode, and honestly, they drive me nuts, and I wish I just had the old ones.

2364
03:10:41,240 --> 03:10:47,000
And I still use the old ones sometimes, but my old ones, the battery life in the right ear is really bad,

2365
03:10:47,000 --> 03:10:50,200
so it'll die way before the other one, which sucks. Why don't you just replace the battery?

2366
03:10:54,440 --> 03:10:56,440
F***ing got them. Get trolled.

2367
03:10:58,040 --> 03:11:02,520
The reason why I don't like them so much is because you don't have that

2368
03:11:02,520 --> 03:11:05,400
insert from the IEMs, the seal is really bad.

2369
03:11:06,280 --> 03:11:10,360
And even in transparency mode, it'll be like trying to figure it out,

2370
03:11:10,360 --> 03:11:14,440
and it'll just start going like crazy,

2371
03:11:14,440 --> 03:11:17,320
and it's like percussion against your ear, it gets really intense.

2372
03:11:19,880 --> 03:11:24,120
So I don't know, it's annoying, especially when you're like moving around doing stuff,

2373
03:11:24,120 --> 03:11:26,840
they'll move slightly in your ear, and then the seal will break.

2374
03:11:27,560 --> 03:11:32,360
And then it's like, man, I find it really annoying, to be honest.

2375
03:11:32,360 --> 03:11:37,000
With the seal, it's good. And man, I gotta say, I wake up with them both still in my ears,

2376
03:11:37,000 --> 03:11:41,560
which is pretty incredible. My pro twos fall out during the middle of the night all the time.

2377
03:11:42,200 --> 03:11:45,080
When it makes seal, it sounds great.

2378
03:11:45,720 --> 03:11:49,240
And the ANC and the transparency mode is amazing, all kinds of fantastic.

2379
03:11:49,240 --> 03:11:52,680
You just gotta figure out how to wear in ears, or in canal.

2380
03:11:52,680 --> 03:11:55,720
I need those spring clips to be a thing. Nice.

2381
03:11:55,720 --> 03:11:58,680
I need to bring that back. Classic.

2382
03:11:59,320 --> 03:12:03,080
Yeah. See, did we give up on this?

2383
03:12:03,720 --> 03:12:08,600
I can't get it past the black screen of death. Okay. Cool. So hardware, that says hardware.

2384
03:12:09,400 --> 03:12:12,680
It could just be that this drive is empty. Yeah. Yeah.

2385
03:12:12,680 --> 03:12:16,360
Wouldn't it say, hey, boot, stop it. Give me boot device.

2386
03:12:16,360 --> 03:12:20,600
Not necessarily. I've seen this behavior before personally.

2387
03:12:20,600 --> 03:12:25,640
Okay. I tried. We should crank the transparency back up and make it purple.

2388
03:12:26,520 --> 03:12:30,040
Nice. Oh, I forgot to do so many things.

2389
03:12:30,040 --> 03:12:33,400
It's all good. I can read the next one. Dan, you're doing great. I'll skip the one.

2390
03:12:33,400 --> 03:12:41,800
Oh, Luke, what Linux distro do you use, and how has the experience been considering Linux myself?

2391
03:12:41,800 --> 03:12:45,720
For the last little bit, I've been dual booting, because there's some stuff I need to do in Windows

2392
03:12:45,720 --> 03:12:49,640
that I could have VM'd and stuff, but that was proven to be annoying.

2393
03:12:49,640 --> 03:12:54,600
So I've been dual booting, but on the Linux side, on my laptop, I've been using Arch.

2394
03:12:54,600 --> 03:12:58,040
The reason why I picked Arch wasn't to be a...

2395
03:12:59,480 --> 03:13:04,040
I'm better at Linux than you, dude. It was to prove that...

2396
03:13:04,040 --> 03:13:07,480
It was just because I'm a better than Linux than you, dude. No, no, no, no.

2397
03:13:07,480 --> 03:13:11,080
And I'm good enough to run Arch. No, no, that's fine. You don't have to say it.

2398
03:13:11,080 --> 03:13:14,520
With relatively little knowledge experience or effort.

2399
03:13:14,520 --> 03:13:20,200
With relatively little knowledge experience or effort, I have been able to run it just fine for months now.

2400
03:13:20,200 --> 03:13:23,480
Totally just fine. No problems, updates, all that stuff.

2401
03:13:25,400 --> 03:13:28,920
And it's been great. And I don't game on my laptop much,

2402
03:13:28,920 --> 03:13:32,120
but I have Steam installed, and I can play a game every now and then.

2403
03:13:32,120 --> 03:13:34,040
And it's been very transparent.

2404
03:13:35,560 --> 03:13:38,920
It doesn't feel like, oh, I'm using Steam,

2405
03:13:38,920 --> 03:13:43,000
trying to pull all these levers and do all these crazy things to get these games to work.

2406
03:13:43,000 --> 03:13:46,440
It's a download button. It's a play button. It's just like you're on Windows.

2407
03:13:46,440 --> 03:13:48,280
Like it's very easy.

2408
03:13:50,840 --> 03:13:55,000
So yeah, the whole goal of this honestly was to be able to basically talk about it on Wancho

2409
03:13:56,280 --> 03:14:01,080
and point out that it's been fine, and I picked the one that's hard.

2410
03:14:01,800 --> 03:14:05,080
And the reason for that was so that- So it was to show how great you are,

2411
03:14:05,080 --> 03:14:10,280
even though it's hard. The point was that I've done nothing. There's no skill involved.

2412
03:14:10,280 --> 03:14:15,160
There's no skill. So if you can't do it, wow, you must be beyond no skill.

2413
03:14:15,160 --> 03:14:18,520
Because I am so godlike at running Linux.

2414
03:14:18,520 --> 03:14:23,720
It took no skill at all. Oh my God. There was at the Intel event in Arizona that we were at,

2415
03:14:23,720 --> 03:14:27,880
there was like Linux nerds there asking me Linux questions because they heard that I was running it.

2416
03:14:27,880 --> 03:14:31,960
And I kept on being like, I don't know. That's not the point.

2417
03:14:32,840 --> 03:14:36,680
The point is that I don't have to do all these things and it's still good.

2418
03:14:36,680 --> 03:14:41,720
Like that's the point. That's the interesting part. So like I, if I were you,

2419
03:14:41,720 --> 03:14:48,280
wouldn't necessarily pick Arch. It's not a game arch. Hathill says Luke is swinging his Luke around the room as usual.

2420
03:14:51,480 --> 03:14:52,840
Giant Linux dong.

2421
03:14:54,840 --> 03:14:59,240
The point is that you can pick the one you want and it's probably going to be fine.

2422
03:14:59,960 --> 03:15:03,240
Let's go have fun. I wish the rest of us could have picked it.

2423
03:15:06,440 --> 03:15:09,400
Up next. Yeah.

2424
03:15:10,200 --> 03:15:13,720
Sadly, no infinite money glitch on gift cards.

2425
03:15:13,720 --> 03:15:16,920
No gift cards with gift cards. What game is Luke playing right now?

2426
03:15:16,920 --> 03:15:19,240
Did you ever finish Baldur's Gate III?

2427
03:15:20,120 --> 03:15:24,760
You still haven't finished it? No. You talk so much about how many characters you've finished it.

2428
03:15:24,760 --> 03:15:30,040
How many characters are you on? Eight. I think more than eight.

2429
03:15:30,040 --> 03:15:33,160
More than eight. I'm pretty sure more than eight. I got super far through a Der's run

2430
03:15:33,160 --> 03:15:36,360
and then was just like, I have like three different.

2431
03:15:36,360 --> 03:15:39,000
I could only play this 15 hours a day.

2432
03:15:40,040 --> 03:15:44,600
Like there's not enough time. I have a hard time not doing everything.

2433
03:15:45,720 --> 03:15:48,680
Yeah. And I have this style. That must cost you a lot in chicken.

2434
03:15:49,560 --> 03:15:54,360
That's actually a really good joke for Baldur's Gate.

2435
03:15:58,360 --> 03:16:01,640
I even like bears. Both kinds.

2436
03:16:03,640 --> 03:16:07,000
He kind of is both kinds, I guess. But anyways.

2437
03:16:07,000 --> 03:16:09,000
Everyone's players, actually. Off that topic.

2438
03:16:11,160 --> 03:16:15,480
Frick, what was I going to say? Yeah, one of my favorite ways to play with new people

2439
03:16:15,880 --> 03:16:19,800
is to not be the party face.

2440
03:16:19,800 --> 03:16:21,480
Like make them be the party face.

2441
03:16:22,840 --> 03:16:26,680
That's like playing the charisma character or the character that will do the dialogues, basically.

2442
03:16:26,680 --> 03:16:29,720
Because I've like done all the things in act one and act two.

2443
03:16:30,920 --> 03:16:33,960
Like in act one and act two.

2444
03:16:33,960 --> 03:16:37,240
So. Do you really just think of them as things?

2445
03:16:38,440 --> 03:16:42,840
That just toys to his masculinity. They're just chicken consumption.

2446
03:16:43,400 --> 03:16:46,600
They just eat your chicken and then they're just.

2447
03:16:47,160 --> 03:16:50,680
You discard them. It might be a wizard, actually.

2448
03:16:50,680 --> 03:16:55,000
Could be poisoned. Arcane chicken.

2449
03:16:55,000 --> 03:16:58,040
So my whole thing is letting them.

2450
03:16:58,040 --> 03:17:01,240
Because every once in a while, even if very small,

2451
03:17:01,240 --> 03:17:05,800
there will be one little tiny thing that I haven't really experienced before. But if I'm just making the decisions all the time,

2452
03:17:05,800 --> 03:17:10,200
it's going to be hard to do that. Because it's very likely that I'll just do the types of things

2453
03:17:10,200 --> 03:17:14,360
that I would normally do. Even doing things in different orders can kind of change how the game plays.

2454
03:17:15,480 --> 03:17:19,400
So I have so many campaigns that are in act two.

2455
03:17:19,400 --> 03:17:22,440
I have a few different campaigns that are in act three.

2456
03:17:23,880 --> 03:17:26,120
I have a ton of campaigns that never made it out of act one.

2457
03:17:27,240 --> 03:17:30,520
Someone who I'd love to start playing with again.

2458
03:17:30,520 --> 03:17:35,000
I'd have to, you know, have a house together and my computer set up and stuff like that.

2459
03:17:35,000 --> 03:17:38,600
But I started a game with Wendell and he,

2460
03:17:38,600 --> 03:17:45,480
this was like right early on in the game coming out. And he's like to dirge without knowing what that was.

2461
03:17:45,480 --> 03:17:51,320
And Wendell's like the kindest, nicest dude ever. And then his character's just doing dirge things.

2462
03:17:51,320 --> 03:17:55,160
And he's like, ah, that was great. I don't like this game very much.

2463
03:17:55,160 --> 03:17:58,440
I would love to start playing that again.

2464
03:17:59,000 --> 03:18:02,360
But yeah, I don't know. I'll beat it eventually. I'm in no particular rush.

2465
03:18:03,000 --> 03:18:06,840
Well, why would you have to beat it if you have all your things to use?

2466
03:18:08,440 --> 03:18:12,680
Let's move on. Like Luke does from his thing.

2467
03:18:12,680 --> 03:18:15,400
You're such an animal. You're such an animal.

2468
03:18:17,720 --> 03:18:21,240
What comes immediately to your mind is the biggest news you've ever discussed.

2469
03:18:23,000 --> 03:18:27,960
What comes immediately to your mind is the biggest news you've ever discussed on the Wandshow?

2470
03:18:29,800 --> 03:18:32,280
I don't know. Maybe Silicon Valley Bank.

2471
03:18:35,240 --> 03:18:38,120
Facebook buying open AI. What?

2472
03:18:38,920 --> 03:18:42,680
Facebook buying Oculus. Other O company?

2473
03:18:42,680 --> 03:18:43,960
Yeah, not that.

2474
03:18:46,520 --> 03:18:49,640
That was a big one for me. That's that big. That was a big one for me. Yeah.

2475
03:18:53,480 --> 03:18:54,840
Biggest news.

2476
03:18:57,160 --> 03:19:02,040
Biggest news. Like the Silicon Valley Bank thing was big, but like...

2477
03:19:04,520 --> 03:19:07,800
It didn't impact you or me. Exactly. Yeah. Or most of them.

2478
03:19:07,800 --> 03:19:09,560
It's like what was the biggest news to us?

2479
03:19:11,640 --> 03:19:15,080
CEO step down? Yeah, I guess.

2480
03:19:15,080 --> 03:19:19,080
I mean, would you say it's changed that much around here?

2481
03:19:20,440 --> 03:19:22,840
You can say it did. Like I'm fine.

2482
03:19:24,120 --> 03:19:29,080
It depends on how you like... In people's very average day to day,

2483
03:19:29,080 --> 03:19:33,720
I don't necessarily think it's changed a ton, but there are certain things that have changed very significantly.

2484
03:19:34,840 --> 03:19:37,240
I would say. Tackful. He's learning.

2485
03:19:41,160 --> 03:19:43,000
Not enough because you noticed, so...

2486
03:19:45,480 --> 03:19:50,440
Yeah, whatever. I mean like whatever political bullshittery,

2487
03:19:50,440 --> 03:19:51,640
I taught you a lot of it.

2488
03:20:03,480 --> 03:20:09,560
And to be clear, the point is not to deceive. The point is to evade.

2489
03:20:11,160 --> 03:20:16,040
To speak without saying.

2490
03:20:18,120 --> 03:20:19,880
It's pretty good though. Thanks. Yeah.

2491
03:20:22,840 --> 03:20:26,040
Man, what am I... I don't know.

2492
03:20:28,440 --> 03:20:31,800
Yeah, chat GPT release was pretty wild, says Camstabrow,

2493
03:20:31,800 --> 03:20:34,040
but I just wonder if there's like a recency bias there.

2494
03:20:35,400 --> 03:20:37,320
That was a bit ago.

2495
03:20:39,240 --> 03:20:41,080
Oh yeah. So it was.

2496
03:20:42,680 --> 03:20:46,280
The like crazy stream where we were like freaking out over it, that was a...

2497
03:20:46,280 --> 03:20:48,760
That's probably a couple of years ago now. A few years ago-ish, I think. Yeah.

2498
03:20:53,560 --> 03:20:58,760
See, what else? Yeah, the hack we didn't like announce on the WAN Show though,

2499
03:20:58,760 --> 03:21:03,800
like it like happened before. Yeah, the YouTube video was kind of the big deal with the hack,

2500
03:21:03,800 --> 03:21:08,840
I think, not so much the stream. We did talk about it on the stream, but the news was already broken for sure.

2501
03:21:08,840 --> 03:21:12,840
Yeah, you know what? I think the chat GPT one was pretty big in terms of like...

2502
03:21:13,560 --> 03:21:16,600
I think that's... Impact on the world. That feels correct.

2503
03:21:16,600 --> 03:21:20,120
Yeah. Okay, yeah, let's go with that.

2504
03:21:21,320 --> 03:21:25,480
When chat GPT released, this is a step in Floatplane chat,

2505
03:21:25,480 --> 03:21:28,760
it was the first time in a while where I realized I was living

2506
03:21:28,760 --> 03:21:32,520
in a history defining moment. I think it was for us too,

2507
03:21:32,520 --> 03:21:36,120
which is one of the reasons why I agree. I think that's probably the...

2508
03:21:36,120 --> 03:21:39,320
Almost three years. Really? Whoa.

2509
03:21:39,320 --> 03:21:41,320
Yeah. That seems crazy.

2510
03:21:43,240 --> 03:21:47,640
Yeah, wow. This is a good spread of that. ChargeNuclei8300 goes,

2511
03:21:47,640 --> 03:21:51,880
yeah, everyone was worried about losing their jobs. Now we're losing our jobs.

2512
03:21:54,440 --> 03:21:57,480
Yeah. Yeah, but it's usually not AI to be honest.

2513
03:21:58,440 --> 03:22:00,520
It's... Except when it is.

2514
03:22:02,360 --> 03:22:05,160
Yeah, a lot of those have eventually come out as like...

2515
03:22:07,560 --> 03:22:10,680
layoff excuses because they wanted to do layoffs, not because they...

2516
03:22:10,680 --> 03:22:15,240
This is true. Yeah. This is true. It's return to work and laid off because of AI is usually...

2517
03:22:15,240 --> 03:22:19,240
They actually just wanted to do layoffs regardless, and they found an excuse.

2518
03:22:19,240 --> 03:22:23,000
A lot of the AI replacing people thing isn't actually really like working.

2519
03:22:24,520 --> 03:22:29,320
I had a... I've been doing home stuff, was at Home Depot,

2520
03:22:29,320 --> 03:22:31,480
bought a thing, walked up to the desk.

2521
03:22:32,520 --> 03:22:37,080
I was trying to figure out like, is this self-checkout or not? Because there is employees standing by like most of them,

2522
03:22:37,160 --> 03:22:41,080
and the person walked up to me, took my stuff.

2523
03:22:41,080 --> 03:22:44,360
And then did the self-checkout for you? Walked it to the self-checkout thing. I've seen that.

2524
03:22:44,360 --> 03:22:46,680
Did it for me, and then just walked away,

2525
03:22:47,560 --> 03:22:50,440
and I was left to like pay, and I was like, how is this better?

2526
03:22:51,080 --> 03:22:54,600
Like, what are we doing? ScrappyTP says,

2527
03:22:54,600 --> 03:22:59,480
Billet Labs, no. You know, they did one production run of that thing.

2528
03:22:59,480 --> 03:23:02,840
Did they? Aren't they doing more stuff now though? I think they have a YouTube channel and whatever.

2529
03:23:03,480 --> 03:23:06,200
But the actual product that I said was irrelevant...

2530
03:23:07,080 --> 03:23:11,080
Ended up having exactly enough relevance for them to do one pre-order,

2531
03:23:12,440 --> 03:23:14,840
one production run, and then never make it again.

2532
03:23:17,480 --> 03:23:20,280
So no, I don't think that was a particularly consequential

2533
03:23:22,360 --> 03:23:26,040
thing. Brian asks,

2534
03:23:26,040 --> 03:23:30,280
Hi, LLD. What are your thoughts on the future

2535
03:23:30,280 --> 03:23:33,720
of discrete Intel Arc cards, particularly higher end,

2536
03:23:33,720 --> 03:23:41,000
given the recent Intel NVIDIA partnership, I'd really like a B770 or C770 to be a thing.

2537
03:23:42,360 --> 03:23:47,080
We're hoping for the best, man. We're rooting for it right alongside you.

2538
03:23:47,080 --> 03:23:53,160
Bring on future discrete Arc. It's gonna be great if it ever makes it.

2539
03:23:53,160 --> 03:23:56,440
I am so exciting, so excited.

2540
03:23:56,440 --> 03:23:58,200
I'm not exciting, but I'm excited.

2541
03:24:00,040 --> 03:24:03,480
Are you excited? Yes. Is it because I'm exciting? Yeah.

2542
03:24:03,480 --> 03:24:10,600
I don't think that's right. Oh, stop it. Brian asks us,

2543
03:24:10,600 --> 03:24:13,880
High Linus, do you dream much? Sometimes.

2544
03:24:14,440 --> 03:24:19,880
Sometimes I sleep like the living dead. Other times I wake up

2545
03:24:19,880 --> 03:24:24,440
and I think I'm mid-conversation with someone and I have no idea where I am or what's going on

2546
03:24:24,440 --> 03:24:30,280
because I was dreaming so lucidly that I was pretty sure that I was awake.

2547
03:24:31,000 --> 03:24:34,120
So everywhere in between.

2548
03:24:34,120 --> 03:24:37,560
And I have particular, well, I shouldn't even say particular ones.

2549
03:24:37,560 --> 03:24:41,640
I have like two different kinds of sleeping pills that I use once in a while and I like really need to sleep

2550
03:24:41,640 --> 03:24:43,560
and my brain's just buzzing.

2551
03:24:45,160 --> 03:24:50,440
And both of them in different ways give me just the most wackadoodle dreams.

2552
03:24:51,160 --> 03:24:54,920
So I end up sleeping more, but I end up resting less well.

2553
03:24:55,480 --> 03:25:02,760
I have to set alarms or have some really good sunlight exposure in the room.

2554
03:25:03,800 --> 03:25:05,480
The sun coming up will wake me up.

2555
03:25:07,720 --> 03:25:10,760
But if I have like blackout lines or whatever,

2556
03:25:10,760 --> 03:25:15,560
or even just not a lot of sun exposure into the room, I can just sleep forever

2557
03:25:15,560 --> 03:25:18,600
because I will lucid dream the heck out of it

2558
03:25:18,600 --> 03:25:21,000
every single night. And it's been that way forever.

2559
03:25:21,880 --> 03:25:26,360
I also have a problem where like if I get woken up,

2560
03:25:26,440 --> 03:25:29,240
say like three hours, four hours into sleeping

2561
03:25:30,600 --> 03:25:35,320
and then fall back asleep, my brain wants to like reset and it's like, no, we're going for eight again.

2562
03:25:36,600 --> 03:25:40,760
There's no other way. And it's, it worries me for like when I'm older,

2563
03:25:40,760 --> 03:25:45,880
if I end up needing to do more often. Like charge nuclei with the bangers this week.

2564
03:25:45,880 --> 03:25:49,160
Luke sleeps like a bird. You just put a blanket on him.

2565
03:25:49,160 --> 03:25:52,200
He's like, that's actually so true.

2566
03:25:53,640 --> 03:25:56,840
I hate you so much. What's a circadian rhythm?

2567
03:25:56,840 --> 03:25:57,480
No, dark?

2568
03:26:01,160 --> 03:26:02,040
That's so true.

2569
03:26:05,400 --> 03:26:08,200
Because when I go, when I go on a plane,

2570
03:26:09,320 --> 03:26:13,560
no, you don't know this to you.

2571
03:26:13,560 --> 03:26:17,240
Funny. When I go on a plane, oh God, one of my standard things

2572
03:26:17,240 --> 03:26:21,000
that I pack in my like smaller bag. I'll have my like switch.

2573
03:26:21,000 --> 03:26:25,160
I'll have some battery banks, whatever else, is always a sweater.

2574
03:26:26,440 --> 03:26:31,240
Even when I like, when I went to Arizona, I packed a sweater because I'll put the sweater on backwards.

2575
03:26:31,240 --> 03:26:36,360
So I put the hood over my head and it like blacks everything. I hate the eye covering things.

2576
03:26:37,880 --> 03:26:44,520
And, and it just blacks everything out. And I can, I like flying back from Arizona.

2577
03:26:44,520 --> 03:26:50,360
I think it was like eight PM. I am not tired at eight PM on any day.

2578
03:26:50,360 --> 03:26:52,840
We get on the plane. I was like out before takeoff.

2579
03:26:54,760 --> 03:26:58,520
So yeah, that's actually, I haven't heard that before. That's a very good description.

2580
03:26:59,240 --> 03:27:02,920
I can't, I can't find it right now.

2581
03:27:03,560 --> 03:27:08,680
But a picture of me definitely exists on social media somewhere of my plane move,

2582
03:27:08,680 --> 03:27:15,720
which involves a hoodie as well. But I cinch the front tight so that only my nose sticks out.

2583
03:27:15,720 --> 03:27:21,080
So that, because I can't, I can't sleep if I'm breathing back in hood air.

2584
03:27:21,240 --> 03:27:25,000
Oh yeah, there's like a, the reason why I wear the full hoodie

2585
03:27:25,000 --> 03:27:29,240
is because I'll like usually lift a thing up down low.

2586
03:27:29,240 --> 03:27:31,720
That's not enough for me. Yeah, not enough.

2587
03:27:32,440 --> 03:27:35,640
I've got to have the, I've got to have the nose hole.

2588
03:27:35,640 --> 03:27:39,960
I definitely don't mind a little bit of recirculated air. I can deal with that no problem.

2589
03:27:41,320 --> 03:27:44,120
Anonymous ass. Here it is. Oh, you found it? Yeah, here it is.

2590
03:27:45,560 --> 03:27:48,760
Yeah, that's it. No key found it. So this is my move.

2591
03:27:48,760 --> 03:27:52,440
So I actually end up with little pressure marks on the bridge of my nose here.

2592
03:27:54,120 --> 03:27:57,720
But yeah, it leaves, it leaves my breathing holes open.

2593
03:27:59,720 --> 03:28:03,400
That's actually pretty good. That's my move. That's pretty good. Oh yeah, this too.

2594
03:28:05,320 --> 03:28:10,760
Yeah. Yeah, always hands in the pockets because otherwise they get chilly. I usually like this under the sweater.

2595
03:28:10,760 --> 03:28:14,680
Right, okay. Yeah, yeah. Oh, oh, like pulling the ARM, pulling in out of the arms.

2596
03:28:15,320 --> 03:28:18,520
Because I do that one too. I don't actually put the sweater like on. It's on reverse.

2597
03:28:18,520 --> 03:28:22,280
Oh, I see, I see. So you just lay it on you. Yeah. I'll wear the sweater,

2598
03:28:22,280 --> 03:28:25,560
but I'll pull my arms out of the arms

2599
03:28:26,280 --> 03:28:30,920
and then I'll just go like this. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I don't care if I'm in my 30s

2600
03:28:31,720 --> 03:28:35,080
and I look like a child. When you're on a plane, all bets are off.

2601
03:28:35,080 --> 03:28:38,200
You get whatever rest you can. Yes, exactly.

2602
03:28:38,200 --> 03:28:41,240
You get comfy and that's it. It doesn't matter anymore.

2603
03:28:41,240 --> 03:28:44,520
Yep. I know I look like a goof. It's fine.

2604
03:28:45,080 --> 03:28:49,960
It doesn't matter to me. But yeah, I like basically wear it like a blanket

2605
03:28:50,600 --> 03:28:53,320
because that's another thing. I find it very hard to sleep unless

2606
03:28:54,840 --> 03:28:59,080
like something is on top of me. But there has been like very significant portions of my life

2607
03:28:59,080 --> 03:29:02,680
where I'm sleeping is way too hot. So I'll sleep with just a sheet,

2608
03:29:02,680 --> 03:29:08,760
but it just has to be like something. So wearing the sweater like that also like feels

2609
03:29:08,760 --> 03:29:12,200
like I have a blanket on me. I don't know. It works. I found a system.

2610
03:29:12,200 --> 03:29:18,120
I'm sticking to it. Hell yeah. Lannis, thank you for some great videos this week.

2611
03:29:18,120 --> 03:29:21,960
What was the best part of the planetarium shoot? LTT, Gamer Dome win.

2612
03:29:21,960 --> 03:29:25,400
Oh, definitely climbing the dome.

2613
03:29:25,400 --> 03:29:30,840
Dude, I was so sick. The fact that there was nobody who actually like worked

2614
03:29:30,840 --> 03:29:35,800
for the McMillan Space Center there to tell me no was like awesome.

2615
03:29:35,800 --> 03:29:39,400
That was important. Dome, awesome. So like you started climbing.

2616
03:29:39,400 --> 03:29:42,520
I was like, there's no way they let him do that. And then he just kept going.

2617
03:29:43,160 --> 03:29:46,520
I was like, what? Yeah. It's amazing. Yeah, I do. Massive.

2618
03:29:46,520 --> 03:29:50,200
What did they call it? The like Nexus speaker or whatever? Oh, shoot.

2619
03:29:50,200 --> 03:29:53,320
What was it? Not apex. I shouldn't have said a word.

2620
03:29:53,320 --> 03:29:57,640
Something. Yeah. What was the speaker at the top called?

2621
03:29:57,640 --> 03:30:00,840
Does someone remember? Not pinnacle. That's not it. I don't think it was pinnacle.

2622
03:30:00,840 --> 03:30:03,400
Someone's going to know. Someone's going to post it in chat, but oh.

2623
03:30:03,960 --> 03:30:07,080
Really sick name. Mass. Zenith. Yeah. Zenith. Whatever.

2624
03:30:07,080 --> 03:30:10,920
Zenith. Yeah. So, so cool. Dude, it's been,

2625
03:30:11,720 --> 03:30:15,080
it's been, you know what the upside is

2626
03:30:15,080 --> 03:30:17,800
of channel momentum being a little bit low lately

2627
03:30:19,000 --> 03:30:22,760
is when people make their way back to the channel

2628
03:30:22,760 --> 03:30:26,200
after the long pause that they've had. There's some bangers.

2629
03:30:26,200 --> 03:30:29,960
They're going to have an absolute killer back catalog

2630
03:30:29,960 --> 03:30:33,080
to go through. This video is great.

2631
03:30:33,080 --> 03:30:39,000
The thumbnail really, I don't know. We need to do some more work on it or something

2632
03:30:39,000 --> 03:30:42,680
because David did just such an amazing job of this video.

2633
03:30:42,680 --> 03:30:45,800
It's so cool. We play around with underwater speakers

2634
03:30:45,800 --> 03:30:50,040
that are for like synchronized swimming teams and we like put it in this guy's pool

2635
03:30:50,040 --> 03:30:53,320
and he's a local guy and he makes like setups for it

2636
03:30:53,320 --> 03:30:56,040
in his shop and we tour his shop and it's like freaking awesome.

2637
03:30:56,600 --> 03:30:59,240
This video is funny. Were you like bait him into jumping into the pool?

2638
03:30:59,800 --> 03:31:03,080
Hilarious. I didn't do that on purpose. Oh, what?

2639
03:31:03,080 --> 03:31:06,440
Oh, no. Okay. So what happened here? Oh my God.

2640
03:31:09,240 --> 03:31:12,600
There we go. Okay.

2641
03:31:12,600 --> 03:31:15,560
So what happened here is I was doing a dry run.

2642
03:31:16,200 --> 03:31:18,920
Like we had done a few dry runs and I was just,

2643
03:31:19,880 --> 03:31:22,920
I was doing one more practice before I was going to be like,

2644
03:31:22,920 --> 03:31:27,320
okay, let's go. I thought because there's footage of him,

2645
03:31:27,960 --> 03:31:29,320
like there's another camera, this one.

2646
03:31:34,360 --> 03:31:37,160
No, that was not intentional. Oh, it was so good.

2647
03:31:37,720 --> 03:31:41,240
So I was just, I was doing, yeah, literal dry run. Thank you, Conrad.

2648
03:31:41,240 --> 03:31:44,520
Don't worry Conrad, I like it. So I was just practicing the line

2649
03:31:44,520 --> 03:31:49,720
and I was showing him the timing. So I was showing him how I was going to telegraph the jump

2650
03:31:49,720 --> 03:31:52,920
because we were supposed to jump in together so that it would-

2651
03:31:52,920 --> 03:31:56,200
You guys ended up nailing it. So it would look like this. Yeah, we got it on the next take

2652
03:31:56,200 --> 03:31:59,240
because we had done a few practices, right? So-

2653
03:31:59,240 --> 03:32:02,280
Like the timing was, the camera went right with your head.

2654
03:32:02,280 --> 03:32:06,840
I actually, I noticed when it, when you guys did it again that I was like, oh, damn, that was actually really good.

2655
03:32:06,840 --> 03:32:09,880
Yeah. Well, because we, that was- Fantastic work to have.

2656
03:32:09,880 --> 03:32:13,240
That was probably the fourth time that I had sort of telegraphed the move.

2657
03:32:13,240 --> 03:32:18,280
But then I was changing the intonation, I was changing the timing a little bit. So I was doing it one more time

2658
03:32:18,280 --> 03:32:22,120
to show him how I was going to do it. Did you tell him that? No, but I also didn't tell him

2659
03:32:22,120 --> 03:32:27,640
we were going for real this time. So I just did the read- I will say for him, like being him,

2660
03:32:27,640 --> 03:32:31,560
it's much safer for him to do what he did

2661
03:32:31,560 --> 03:32:34,840
because he can come out and just like be wet and it's fine. Yeah.

2662
03:32:34,840 --> 03:32:38,360
You can't really- Yeah, I can't go from dry to wet again. Yeah.

2663
03:32:38,360 --> 03:32:44,040
So if someone's going to screw that up, it would be him. So, you know, if he has even the inkling of a thought

2664
03:32:44,040 --> 03:32:46,440
that you're actually going for it, it makes sense for him to go for it.

2665
03:32:47,320 --> 03:32:50,600
I will defend the actions of the camera. Scrapyard Wars 10 is a banger.

2666
03:32:50,600 --> 03:32:53,720
If you're into that, this VR one is freaking awesome.

2667
03:32:53,720 --> 03:32:58,360
Did you watch this yet? I have not. Dude, I've had no time. It's, this thing is so cool.

2668
03:32:58,360 --> 03:33:01,640
It's a VR headset from 1994. Oh, I'm going to watch it.

2669
03:33:01,640 --> 03:33:05,160
I just have had, because of the house, I've been renovating, whatever. Dude, I've had no time.

2670
03:33:05,160 --> 03:33:09,960
Freakin' awesome. Oh, dude, like under-viewed videos.

2671
03:33:09,960 --> 03:33:14,520
This one right here is probably the most under-viewed video

2672
03:33:14,520 --> 03:33:20,360
on the channel. Because it starts out with this like real footage of Ploof's car.

2673
03:33:21,880 --> 03:33:24,200
And it's just me and Adam driving, right?

2674
03:33:26,760 --> 03:33:29,800
This is probably one of the best intros we've ever done.

2675
03:33:29,800 --> 03:33:31,400
Like top three for sure.

2676
03:33:35,160 --> 03:33:49,240
The fact that there's the little like jiggle too is crazy.

2677
03:33:49,240 --> 03:33:52,120
Oh dude, that motion platform is so cool.

2678
03:33:53,080 --> 03:33:57,800
So if you haven't seen the video like, man, what a cool setup.

2679
03:33:58,440 --> 03:34:02,840
So wild. Is that incredible or what? It's a really cool video.

2680
03:34:02,840 --> 03:34:06,440
And like, dude, I've made some complaints about how long our videos are now.

2681
03:34:06,440 --> 03:34:09,960
That's a 22-minute video. Flies by. I felt like it could have been 45.

2682
03:34:09,960 --> 03:34:12,520
Flies by. Like it's very dense. Yep.

2683
03:34:13,240 --> 03:34:17,960
So, you know, man, I don't know. It's going to be, it's going to be a lot of fun

2684
03:34:17,960 --> 03:34:26,120
for people who have made their way off the channel for one reason or another and finally find their way back

2685
03:34:26,120 --> 03:34:29,640
and are just like, man, why the heck did I stop watching?

2686
03:34:29,640 --> 03:34:34,360
Because there's some really, really great videos in the library lately.

2687
03:34:34,360 --> 03:34:37,400
Team's been absolutely freaking killing it.

2688
03:34:37,400 --> 03:34:39,320
Do you do the crab thing underwater?

2689
03:34:40,600 --> 03:34:43,960
Oh dude, did you see the person who like AI'd it

2690
03:34:43,960 --> 03:34:47,160
onto actual crabs or something on Reddit? Yeah, yeah.

2691
03:34:47,160 --> 03:34:51,320
The Reddit's been fun. It's, it's so.

2692
03:34:51,320 --> 03:34:56,680
Bit of a rare moment, but the Reddit has been fun. It's, it is so uncomfortable to look at, but really funny.

2693
03:34:57,320 --> 03:35:01,720
All right, hit me, Dan. Linus, you said you're a big fan of Made in Canada.

2694
03:35:01,720 --> 03:35:06,440
That show got me into the Tragically Hip. Do you enjoy their music and did any of you

2695
03:35:06,440 --> 03:35:09,400
watch their final performance? About a third of the country did.

2696
03:35:10,120 --> 03:35:15,080
I have to admit, Tragically Hip is one of those bands

2697
03:35:15,080 --> 03:35:18,280
that I've heard of a billion times. What?

2698
03:35:18,280 --> 03:35:22,360
You don't. And I probably like would know their songs if I heard them.

2699
03:35:22,360 --> 03:35:26,680
You would know their songs. But I never, I never got into them.

2700
03:35:26,680 --> 03:35:32,760
I, I'm sorry. If this helps me redeem my Canadian-ness a little bit.

2701
03:35:32,760 --> 03:35:34,760
Love the Bare-Naked Ladies. Listen to them a lot.

2702
03:35:35,800 --> 03:35:38,360
That helps. Bare-Naked Ladies. Sorry.

2703
03:35:39,000 --> 03:35:42,600
Tragically Hip is fantastic. Hunterth Meridian is probably my favorite song of theirs.

2704
03:35:42,600 --> 03:35:44,600
It's not the most popular, but it's probably my favorite one.

2705
03:35:46,120 --> 03:35:48,520
Also, Arrogant Worms, big fan.

2706
03:35:51,480 --> 03:35:54,280
Hi, little.dll. Saw them live ones.

2707
03:35:55,160 --> 03:35:59,640
Arrogant Worms. Yeah, at the Maple Ridge Center for the Performing Arts or whatever it's called.

2708
03:35:59,640 --> 03:36:03,240
Maple Ridge has like a tiny little theater that seats like 200 people or something.

2709
03:36:03,240 --> 03:36:08,200
I adore it. And they performed that. It was great. They did this impromptu song called I pulled my groin.

2710
03:36:09,160 --> 03:36:14,120
I pulled my groin. I pulled my groin. It just kind of went like that for a while.

2711
03:36:14,120 --> 03:36:17,480
Pretty great. It's a very, it's a very if you're into it kind of humor.

2712
03:36:17,480 --> 03:36:21,080
Those guys anyway. Rush, my dad's a huge Rush fan.

2713
03:36:22,280 --> 03:36:25,480
Rush is dope. I didn't know they were Canadian.

2714
03:36:26,280 --> 03:36:29,560
You know who else is Canadian? Uh-oh. Almost everybody.

2715
03:36:29,560 --> 03:36:32,680
Best named band in the world. Hold on.

2716
03:36:33,320 --> 03:36:37,240
Best named. Saying it ironically.

2717
03:36:37,240 --> 03:36:41,960
Band in the world. You have to know the story behind it to understand why I would say that.

2718
03:36:41,960 --> 03:36:45,400
Chad already guessed it. Simple plan.

2719
03:36:46,040 --> 03:36:48,680
No. Are they Canadian? Oh yeah. Montreal.

2720
03:36:51,480 --> 03:36:54,840
Nickelback. Nickelback. Why? Why is that? Lead singer guy.

2721
03:36:54,840 --> 03:37:00,600
I think it was lead singer guy. One of them used to work at a coffee shop and used to constantly ask people if they wanted their

2722
03:37:00,600 --> 03:37:05,720
Nickelback because they'd pay in cash and then that's how much change there would be after they

2723
03:37:05,720 --> 03:37:09,080
bought a coffee. All our 95, you know, 95 cents.

2724
03:37:09,080 --> 03:37:12,280
You want your Nickelback? Yeah, I get it. Let's name it our band.

2725
03:37:12,280 --> 03:37:16,280
It's a very Abbotsford. Their label is 604 Records.

2726
03:37:16,840 --> 03:37:19,720
Yeah. Which is kind of cool. It's a very good code.

2727
03:37:21,720 --> 03:37:26,680
What a unique way to name a record table.

2728
03:37:26,680 --> 03:37:28,840
What a name. All right, cool.

2729
03:37:30,760 --> 03:37:33,960
And yes, Night Shift 31, Carrot Juice's Murder is a great song.

2730
03:37:35,160 --> 03:37:37,800
Let's listen to this merch message.

2731
03:37:38,760 --> 03:37:43,640
Luke, you mentioned that you're using Godot. What's the most complex thing you've done so far?

2732
03:37:43,640 --> 03:37:47,800
Been learning game dev with it myself. Love how easy it is to pick up.

2733
03:37:47,800 --> 03:37:51,160
Shout out to the Godot team. Shout out to the Godot team for sure.

2734
03:37:52,440 --> 03:37:54,920
Most complex thing I've done so far is not very complex.

2735
03:37:56,120 --> 03:37:59,880
Nippless Cage has a late guest for Best Named Band.

2736
03:37:59,880 --> 03:38:03,160
Jimmy Eat World doesn't abbreviate well on his shirt though.

2737
03:38:07,400 --> 03:38:09,640
I mean, not if you don't want to get blamed for everything, that's for sure.

2738
03:38:12,040 --> 03:38:14,840
Okay, most complicated thing. Yeah, I really haven't done a lot.

2739
03:38:15,560 --> 03:38:20,680
That's super complicated, to be honest. I know that's a really boring answer, but I haven't gotten that far into it.

2740
03:38:21,320 --> 03:38:25,400
Right around when I started using it, my life got very busy and very complicated,

2741
03:38:25,400 --> 03:38:26,840
so I haven't really done a ton of it.

2742
03:38:28,520 --> 03:38:32,280
Just wait till you have a kid if you ever do. Your life is not busy or complicated yet.

2743
03:38:34,200 --> 03:38:37,400
I think birds sound worse. No, they're not.

2744
03:38:37,400 --> 03:38:39,720
You don't go to jail. Yeah, exactly.

2745
03:38:41,800 --> 03:38:47,080
I'll reference my birds as if they're like kids or whatever every once in a while.

2746
03:38:47,480 --> 03:38:51,080
It's not, no, that's not, like we've been, they've been at the,

2747
03:38:51,080 --> 03:38:56,200
they've been away from us for a long time right now, and I'm fine.

2748
03:38:58,040 --> 03:39:01,480
Oh yeah, they're not going to like grow up and have to pay therapy.

2749
03:39:02,200 --> 03:39:08,040
It's okay, they're not going to have to do drugs about it. They're okay, it's good, it's expensive.

2750
03:39:08,040 --> 03:39:12,200
That part makes me want to cry myself to sleep, but not the them being away from me.

2751
03:39:12,200 --> 03:39:15,640
I'm excited for them to be back. It'll be nice. I like having them around.

2752
03:39:15,640 --> 03:39:18,680
They're cool. It's not my child. These things are different.

2753
03:39:21,880 --> 03:39:26,120
How are the birds? Birds are fine. They're at like the safest place they could possibly be.

2754
03:39:26,840 --> 03:39:29,560
They're fine. In a coal mine. Nope.

2755
03:39:30,600 --> 03:39:34,200
That would be a canary, not a budgie. I mean, it'd probably work.

2756
03:39:34,200 --> 03:39:38,280
A budgie would, oh, it would work. Yeah. Would it work too well?

2757
03:39:38,280 --> 03:39:41,880
Yeah, I think so actually. I think that's kind of the problem. I think that is the problem.

2758
03:39:41,880 --> 03:39:45,160
Why don't you, could you have both of them in the cage and then you could get,

2759
03:39:45,160 --> 03:39:46,920
you could get like different levels.

2760
03:39:49,160 --> 03:39:52,840
Be like a thermometer. The problem is the budgie, I think would just die. Like just run.

2761
03:39:52,840 --> 03:39:54,120
Oh, I've been outside.

2762
03:39:57,720 --> 03:40:01,320
That would suck. It'd be a terrible launch. It constantly goes off.

2763
03:40:02,280 --> 03:40:05,320
Have you seen it? It would be the everything's okay alarm. Yeah, true.

2764
03:40:05,320 --> 03:40:09,320
What? Have you seen the little contraptions that the miners would make to save the canaries?

2765
03:40:09,320 --> 03:40:13,720
Crazy. Have you seen those? Yeah. Yeah. They're actually. I like that they cared.

2766
03:40:13,720 --> 03:40:19,320
Yeah. It's really nice. Makes me happy. Like they needed some. And that's the words like they only cared because it cost so much to get another one.

2767
03:40:19,320 --> 03:40:24,680
And I was like, shut up. No. I don't believe that. They were a life-saving technology and they felt that, but it was all they had.

2768
03:40:25,960 --> 03:40:31,560
Up next. Would you be willing to talk more about your experience with ADHD and working in a world

2769
03:40:31,560 --> 03:40:37,560
that is not built for it? What's your advice to help others who are struggling to succeed like you have?

2770
03:40:43,160 --> 03:40:46,040
Good luck. Um.

2771
03:40:47,640 --> 03:40:48,520
Great advice.

2772
03:40:50,760 --> 03:40:54,280
Every day is suffering and it doesn't get better. Thanks, Dan.

2773
03:40:55,560 --> 03:40:59,400
So the winner goes to the spoils. See you. I don't know, man.

2774
03:40:59,400 --> 03:41:14,840
I mean, so much of, so much of everything is just not accepting any outcome other than

2775
03:41:15,320 --> 03:41:19,720
success. And to be clear, that's not always going to work.

2776
03:41:19,720 --> 03:41:26,120
You might just, you might be willing and able to try really hard, but you might just be really

2777
03:41:26,120 --> 03:41:29,800
dumb, you know, and your ideas might just be really bad.

2778
03:41:29,800 --> 03:41:35,000
You can still. And it might not, you know, I just mean like, what I mean is just like trying really hard at

2779
03:41:35,000 --> 03:41:39,560
something that's a bad idea won't be a recipe for success. You have to have a combination.

2780
03:41:39,560 --> 03:41:42,760
You have to have a willingness to win.

2781
03:41:42,760 --> 03:41:46,840
You have to have, uh, you have to have a fortunate situation.

2782
03:41:46,840 --> 03:41:50,760
Like, you know, Luke and I often talk about how we grew up without a lot of money.

2783
03:41:50,760 --> 03:41:55,320
But what we were both lucky to have was supportive families.

2784
03:41:55,320 --> 03:41:59,560
Right. And that's something that is worth more than any amount of money.

2785
03:41:59,560 --> 03:42:04,120
So, you know, we were very privileged in that way for sure.

2786
03:42:04,120 --> 03:42:07,160
Right. And so you have to have an opportunity.

2787
03:42:07,160 --> 03:42:13,480
You have to have, you have to have just like genetic lottery luck.

2788
03:42:15,640 --> 03:42:19,880
Like there's a lot of things that have to align for, for success.

2789
03:42:21,080 --> 03:42:29,000
But what every single successful person has in common, and I don't mean people who were handed

2790
03:42:29,000 --> 03:42:33,320
money. I don't consider just the act of having money success.

2791
03:42:34,280 --> 03:42:42,120
Um, but people who, who earned a place in the world, like what they all have in common is

2792
03:42:42,120 --> 03:42:46,440
they all worked their butt off and didn't take failure as an option.

2793
03:42:49,080 --> 03:42:52,360
And so that's, yeah, that, that's it.

2794
03:42:52,360 --> 03:42:57,320
Your people hate that answer and we've gotten flamed for this answer repeatedly over time.

2795
03:42:57,320 --> 03:43:01,080
Yeah. It doesn't change the hustle culture. Hustle culture is toxic.

2796
03:43:01,080 --> 03:43:08,920
The grind set is whatever. That's fine. Neat. But then just, you know, you've got to define, you've got to define what your goals are.

2797
03:43:08,920 --> 03:43:12,200
Yeah, exactly. But that's not what I'm being asked.

2798
03:43:12,200 --> 03:43:13,480
Yeah. Right. Like.

2799
03:43:17,000 --> 03:43:20,760
And there's no like, there's no, I don't know, there's no auto win button.

2800
03:43:20,760 --> 03:43:26,760
So when people don't like. Addo says ADHD person trying to focus in order to provide tips on ADHD.

2801
03:43:26,760 --> 03:43:27,240
Well, yeah.

2802
03:43:31,480 --> 03:43:35,720
Yeah. Doing my best over here.

2803
03:43:36,360 --> 03:43:39,400
I will, I will never not try hard.

2804
03:43:39,400 --> 03:43:43,640
That's what I, that's what I told badminton insight when they came and did the collab,

2805
03:43:43,640 --> 03:43:46,200
when they like trained me like a pro for the day.

2806
03:43:47,000 --> 03:43:52,040
So I did like their professional training regimen and it kicked my butt.

2807
03:43:52,040 --> 03:43:59,720
And they were like, I can't believe you're still going. And I'm like, well, that's the only thing that I can offer any coach who has ever coached me

2808
03:43:59,720 --> 03:44:07,960
is that I will do my absolute best every single time. Sometimes my best will be trash and I just like, I won't hit a single shot.

2809
03:44:09,400 --> 03:44:12,520
But I will do my best for the entire session.

2810
03:44:12,520 --> 03:44:17,400
And when it's over, I will go have a bath and then I will come back the next day

2811
03:44:17,400 --> 03:44:21,320
and I will do my best and my best might be trash again.

2812
03:44:21,320 --> 03:44:24,600
But dammit, I will do my best and that's all I can offer.

2813
03:44:25,720 --> 03:44:29,480
And maybe part of it is just accepting that sometimes you're going to do your best

2814
03:44:29,480 --> 03:44:32,200
and it's going to be trash and you just have to keep doing it anyway.

2815
03:44:33,000 --> 03:44:35,240
Because anything else is not going to win.

2816
03:44:36,680 --> 03:44:38,920
You will never win sandbagging it.

2817
03:44:42,360 --> 03:44:47,400
Linus, alabaster Don, crosscode quote unquote sequel, got a demo.

2818
03:44:47,400 --> 03:44:50,600
Maybe a while before one by no, but from the sounds of it.

2819
03:44:59,240 --> 03:45:00,860
You okay brother? Yep.

2820
03:45:02,680 --> 03:45:07,400
Wishlist? What is this? Where's the demo? You can't tell me alabaster Don has a demo.

2821
03:45:07,400 --> 03:45:12,200
You gotta go to this team. Not have one. Well, why wouldn't they, why wouldn't they talk about it on their website?

2822
03:45:12,200 --> 03:45:15,560
It says right there, you scrolled past it, it's up there. You scrolled past it. Oh boy.

2823
03:45:17,720 --> 03:45:20,920
What are you doing? Where is it? There, in the middle.

2824
03:45:20,920 --> 03:45:25,880
What, wishlist? That's a wishlist. Yeah, that's not demo. You should talk about, you should talk about the demo.

2825
03:45:25,880 --> 03:45:29,080
How would you not talk about your demo? Public demo, here it is.

2826
03:45:29,080 --> 03:45:32,040
I have to go to the blog. Why don't... Do they only have one blog?

2827
03:45:33,320 --> 03:45:38,280
They're like dummies. Every one of these things has anything, has two blogs.

2828
03:45:38,280 --> 03:45:43,160
Oh, John actually texted me online. Oh, is he upset? What about Secret Third blog?

2829
03:45:43,160 --> 03:45:48,120
You can't make fun of me, I have two blogs. He said, sorry about the links and permissions with the forum stuff.

2830
03:45:48,120 --> 03:45:53,080
This week's been kind of a show for me. Don't worry about it, John, relax, it's okay.

2831
03:45:54,200 --> 03:45:58,920
Okay, what do we got here? Alabaster Don demo. Don't apologize for anything, you have two blogs.

2832
03:45:58,920 --> 03:46:03,480
Yeah, he has twice as many blogs as this pathetic radical fish games.

2833
03:46:06,600 --> 03:46:11,560
Imagine we have one blog. Okay, so yeah, you just install it from Steam. First public demo, what is it?

2834
03:46:11,560 --> 03:46:17,000
Install it right now, play on the show. Saves from this demo are expected to be fully compatible with future early access

2835
03:46:17,000 --> 03:46:21,800
and full versions, aside from... Install it now. We hope that you will enjoy a small taste of what's to come.

2836
03:46:21,800 --> 03:46:25,160
You can also already leave feedback with Steam reviews. Oh, I wonder, I wonder how the feedback is.

2837
03:46:25,160 --> 03:46:28,680
Oh, it really... Leave feedback on a video of this WAN Show.

2838
03:46:28,760 --> 03:46:32,120
By playing it now. Alabaster Don, I'm not going to play it right now.

2839
03:46:32,120 --> 03:46:35,320
Why? Because I'm going to wait. We're now a review channel. I'm going to wait.

2840
03:46:35,320 --> 03:46:39,000
You're going to wait for full release? Oh, no user reviews yet.

2841
03:46:39,000 --> 03:46:42,840
Oh, dude, if this game is anywhere near as good as I'm expecting, it will be a full release.

2842
03:46:44,120 --> 03:46:48,600
It's not early access though, which is nice. Yeah, it was a question that was going to be full release.

2843
03:46:48,600 --> 03:46:50,760
I was saying, are you going to wait to play it until full release?

2844
03:46:52,280 --> 03:46:56,040
It's not even announced. Oh, whatever. I'll let Chad explain it to you.

2845
03:46:56,040 --> 03:46:59,400
It'll happen. Oh.

2846
03:47:02,760 --> 03:47:03,320
Understood.

2847
03:47:06,760 --> 03:47:07,000
Dan.

2848
03:47:10,520 --> 03:47:12,760
I think he's the other guy running from that one.

2849
03:47:14,200 --> 03:47:19,400
Linus went to Luke and it took a while to get over here to quite far away.

2850
03:47:20,200 --> 03:47:23,080
Oh, fire tonight.

2851
03:47:23,800 --> 03:47:28,280
It's not even the gonorrhea. We need the explained vid.

2852
03:47:28,280 --> 03:47:30,200
Oh, that's an incoming. Linus, what's your favorite color?

2853
03:47:32,760 --> 03:47:35,720
How many times are you going to curate this question, Dan?

2854
03:47:36,280 --> 03:47:38,680
I don't know. You just say a color and then we can move on.

2855
03:47:39,800 --> 03:47:43,560
It's a one word. Have a favorite color. It's complicated.

2856
03:47:43,560 --> 03:47:47,800
It's complicated. Moving on. I don't have a favorite color.

2857
03:47:47,800 --> 03:47:51,880
I don't have one. I don't have one. I haven't picked it. What's your favorite color?

2858
03:47:53,880 --> 03:47:57,160
What's your favorite band? Okay.

2859
03:47:57,160 --> 03:47:58,760
Do you like Blink-22 or something for you? What?

2860
03:48:00,200 --> 03:48:04,440
He went again. You're a boy. Hi, DLL. Have you ordered the pebble yet?

2861
03:48:04,440 --> 03:48:08,520
No, I haven't actually. They're starting to ship the white pebble. Oh, that's a question.

2862
03:48:08,520 --> 03:48:11,560
I don't know. No, I actually didn't get around to ordering one.

2863
03:48:11,560 --> 03:48:14,200
Yeah, really. Okay.

2864
03:48:15,400 --> 03:48:18,840
I'll get in touch. Okay.

2865
03:48:26,280 --> 03:48:32,040
This might be a Luke question, actually.

2866
03:48:32,040 --> 03:48:32,920
Last one I've got here.

2867
03:48:35,400 --> 03:48:42,840
What do you think? Let's try it. Why does certain fods like Wansho on Flow Plane stream

2868
03:48:42,840 --> 03:48:46,920
very poorly to my TV using cast for the last six months?

2869
03:48:46,920 --> 03:48:51,080
Even the lowest quality only plays audio, the video freeze frames?

2870
03:48:51,800 --> 03:48:56,040
Well, the Flow Plane casting feature is...

2871
03:48:58,760 --> 03:49:02,600
Hot garbage? Questionably existent.

2872
03:49:03,800 --> 03:49:07,160
And theoretically, hopefully... We haven't put a lot of dev time into it.

2873
03:49:07,160 --> 03:49:09,880
No, well, neither has Google, so it is what it is.

2874
03:49:10,680 --> 03:49:15,720
Hopefully, theoretically, eventually won't be necessarily because we will have a Flow Plane app for TVs.

2875
03:49:15,720 --> 03:49:19,320
It is not coming soon, but we have been working towards it for a while,

2876
03:49:19,320 --> 03:49:22,920
and we will get there eventually. I know people have been wanting it.

2877
03:49:22,920 --> 03:49:28,440
We have not been ignoring you, which is a small team. It takes us time, but it's coming.

2878
03:49:28,440 --> 03:49:29,240
So, yeah.

2879
03:49:32,760 --> 03:49:36,280
Sorry. There are... Yeah, yeah, yeah.

2880
03:49:39,880 --> 03:49:44,120
Oliva, I think is the name. Hydrovion is an option.

2881
03:49:44,120 --> 03:49:48,040
There's a few... I've heard very good things about Hydrovion,

2882
03:49:48,040 --> 03:49:53,640
but there's a few different options for open source.

2883
03:49:53,640 --> 03:49:56,680
Other people made apps for the TVs and stuff.

2884
03:49:56,680 --> 03:50:00,760
You can use theirs. We want to have a first-party version eventually because that's what people are going to look for,

2885
03:50:01,400 --> 03:50:04,600
but there are other ones that, as far as I understand it,

2886
03:50:04,600 --> 03:50:06,920
goes actually work quite well. So, you can check those out.

2887
03:50:07,880 --> 03:50:11,880
Remember correctly, I talked to the Hydrovion guy a while ago, and it was super cool.

2888
03:50:14,920 --> 03:50:20,120
Hmm. Last one I got here. Linus, the leather jacket, it has that middle.

2889
03:50:20,920 --> 03:50:27,240
So, for the two zippers, have both zipper pulls on each right side

2890
03:50:27,240 --> 03:50:31,240
and tabs on the left. This way, you can use it without the middle,

2891
03:50:31,240 --> 03:50:35,480
without the second zipper. Yes, that is the plan.

2892
03:50:35,480 --> 03:50:40,840
So, this middle section here, where there's a second zipper because it's designed by AI.

2893
03:50:42,120 --> 03:50:45,720
Yes, this side is female, and this is male,

2894
03:50:45,800 --> 03:50:49,160
and this is female, and this is male. So, you can actually zip it together

2895
03:50:49,160 --> 03:50:50,680
and make it like a slimmer fit

2896
03:50:52,600 --> 03:50:55,000
by taking out the middle section, if you want.

2897
03:50:55,640 --> 03:50:59,000
So, the stock fit will be a little bit on the huskier side,

2898
03:50:59,000 --> 03:51:03,640
and then you'll be able to make it a slimmer fit by bringing it together.

2899
03:51:03,640 --> 03:51:07,960
To be clear, no, it is not entirely designed by AI.

2900
03:51:07,960 --> 03:51:11,320
Matthew from our Creator Warehouse fashion team

2901
03:51:12,760 --> 03:51:17,880
did generate a bunch of leather jackets, and so, we did take a ton of inspiration

2902
03:51:17,880 --> 03:51:22,360
from an AI-generated leather jacket. So, it has a bunch of pockets that don't do anything

2903
03:51:22,360 --> 03:51:26,120
and little straps and stuff that don't attach anything,

2904
03:51:26,120 --> 03:51:29,960
and it has two front zippers, which was an AI innovation,

2905
03:51:29,960 --> 03:51:34,760
but it took a lot of work still to turn that AI-generated nonsense

2906
03:51:34,760 --> 03:51:37,160
into something that's actually wearable by a human,

2907
03:51:38,760 --> 03:51:41,640
and it's gonna be awesome. We're calling it the Jensen.

2908
03:51:42,840 --> 03:51:48,840
Actually, I haven't reached out lately but I messaged our NVIDIA contact months ago,

2909
03:51:48,840 --> 03:51:54,120
saying, hey, what are the odds that we could gift Jensen one

2910
03:51:55,160 --> 03:51:57,560
and have him wear it on stage or something?

2911
03:51:58,360 --> 03:52:00,760
The AI-generated leather jacket, do you don't think so?

2912
03:52:01,400 --> 03:52:04,920
Why not? Hell no. Why not? I think you should try. You should definitely try.

2913
03:52:04,920 --> 03:52:10,920
You don't think she would. Unquestionably, you should try. You don't think that Jensen would like the story of our jacket?

2914
03:52:10,920 --> 03:52:14,600
Doesn't have the buzz. What? It's a challenge.

2915
03:52:14,600 --> 03:52:18,280
What kind of a thing to say is that? He should do it. Well, yeah, he should do it,

2916
03:52:18,280 --> 03:52:23,400
but why would you think that he would not be into wearing a jacket that was designed by AI?

2917
03:52:23,400 --> 03:52:27,000
Because it's designed poorly in his whole things that he wants to show off good AI.

2918
03:52:28,840 --> 03:52:32,760
But he also talks a lot about AI as a tool

2919
03:52:33,400 --> 03:52:36,600
for humans to do work, so that's what it was.

2920
03:52:36,600 --> 03:52:41,320
We used it for design inspiration, and it did some pretty wacky stuff,

2921
03:52:41,320 --> 03:52:43,640
but as wacky as the stuff is,

2922
03:52:44,360 --> 03:52:47,880
literally everyone that I show this jacket to in person

2923
03:52:47,880 --> 03:52:50,600
is like, that's a super cool jacket.

2924
03:52:51,320 --> 03:52:54,520
So yeah, sure, it's covered in a bunch of buckles that have no purpose,

2925
03:52:55,400 --> 03:52:59,000
but does a leather jacket need a purpose for a buckle

2926
03:52:59,000 --> 03:53:04,440
other than to look cool? Make it cost an obscene amount of money.

2927
03:53:05,320 --> 03:53:10,120
And then he'd like it? Maybe. Like make it come across as like,

2928
03:53:11,000 --> 03:53:13,740
it actually does look pretty good. It does look good. Yeah.

2929
03:53:18,040 --> 03:53:21,000
What do you... Floatplane chat.

2930
03:53:22,120 --> 03:53:27,080
Hold on, I'm trying to find a good shot of it where I'm not just like behind a thing.

2931
03:53:28,200 --> 03:53:31,720
Think it's, I think it's over here somewhere. Where do I put on the jacket?

2932
03:53:31,720 --> 03:53:35,880
Oh yeah, put on the jacket here. What would you guys think real leather,

2933
03:53:36,840 --> 03:53:39,480
this is probably worth? Like what would you pay for this?

2934
03:53:40,920 --> 03:53:44,520
You make it tall? Probably not a tall, sorry Dan.

2935
03:53:44,520 --> 03:53:49,080
I was talking to Matthew and said, could I request a one-of-one sample tall

2936
03:53:49,880 --> 03:53:51,800
and pay out the ass for it?

2937
03:53:53,800 --> 03:53:58,040
I think that if you're giving the money to Luke, he'd strongly prefer that it was nowhere near your ass.

2938
03:53:58,840 --> 03:54:02,520
He wouldn't even want a dollar if it was from your ass, but anyway, hold on, carry on.

2939
03:54:02,520 --> 03:54:07,000
But he'll take a bathroom one? No, I said no truck stuff.

2940
03:54:07,000 --> 03:54:11,640
Although it's... Okay. Someone in a full-plane chat asked if I'd take one off

2941
03:54:11,640 --> 03:54:14,520
the floor of a Japanese bathroom. 400, 600.

2942
03:54:15,560 --> 03:54:19,080
I mean, I use them for your shower water. 200 to 300, pokey brick.

2943
03:54:19,080 --> 03:54:20,600
I don't think you're being very realistic.

2944
03:54:22,680 --> 03:54:26,680
400, 800, 500 to 600, at least 400.

2945
03:54:26,680 --> 03:54:32,280
That's real leather? Like actual animals? Yeah, 500, 400 to 500.

2946
03:54:32,280 --> 03:54:42,600
US, that'd be like six to $800. I think that much of chat will be happy,

2947
03:54:43,480 --> 03:54:47,080
not all of them, and Dan will be pleasantly surprised.

2948
03:54:48,040 --> 03:54:52,280
I will say that much. I have some idea of pricing now.

2949
03:54:53,880 --> 03:54:56,920
I'd say somewhere between 350 and 450. That's my guess.

2950
03:54:56,920 --> 03:55:00,200
That's a very low guess, sir. For leather goods? USD?

2951
03:55:00,760 --> 03:55:05,240
USD, yeah. That's a very low guess for real,

2952
03:55:05,240 --> 03:55:09,160
actual leather with this many things. This is very complicated. That many things might change it.

2953
03:55:09,160 --> 03:55:13,320
I remember, I don't know if you remember this, I had a leather jacket that I wore all the time.

2954
03:55:14,040 --> 03:55:21,720
No, I don't remember that. What was that? This is a long time ago, and for not that long of a period of time.

2955
03:55:22,440 --> 03:55:25,480
But I wore it a lot for a while. No, I do remember talking about this because you and I

2956
03:55:25,480 --> 03:55:29,800
both lost the fanciest jackets we'd ever bought, and it wasn't that far apart, I think.

2957
03:55:29,800 --> 03:55:34,520
Yep. Yeah, I do remember that. It was called, so it was from Danie leather.

2958
03:55:34,520 --> 03:55:38,600
Oh, that's mine too. And they name their jackets, people names?

2959
03:55:38,600 --> 03:55:43,320
Yeah. And it was Luke. Nice. And I didn't know that until I had picked it,

2960
03:55:43,320 --> 03:55:49,080
and then I was like, no way. And then when it got stolen, I went to go back and buy another one,

2961
03:55:49,080 --> 03:55:56,040
and they were gone. But that was like, is Danie leather like real leather?

2962
03:55:56,040 --> 03:55:59,560
Is that? I don't think so. Yep. I mean, they have different levels of quality.

2963
03:55:59,560 --> 03:56:04,680
Mine one was real leather. It was the only medium-tall, like, weird, not-bomber that exists.

2964
03:56:04,680 --> 03:56:08,440
Because like, they've got this one. Oh, it's on an insane sale.

2965
03:56:08,440 --> 03:56:12,600
That might explain it. They're not doing so hot. Ah, I see.

2966
03:56:14,600 --> 03:56:18,680
That's a sale if I've ever seen a sale. Is it only, though, there's only like one size left, though.

2967
03:56:18,680 --> 03:56:22,760
That's pretty normal. Okay, so it's like. Yeah, it's only in 2XL. Get it out of my inventory size.

2968
03:56:22,760 --> 03:56:26,360
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. So what's something that's actually. Let's look at this jacket.

2969
03:56:26,360 --> 03:56:31,320
The Asher. Oh, okay, wow. Oh, it's my brother's name. This is Canadian, but this is a very

2970
03:56:31,640 --> 03:56:36,120
simple jacket compared to the one you're showing. Yes. There's really not a lot going on here.

2971
03:56:36,120 --> 03:56:40,680
Yep. Let's go try to find something a little bit more complicated.

2972
03:56:42,520 --> 03:56:46,840
Speaking of Canadian artists. Maybe they don't have them. That was a little bit more.

2973
03:56:46,840 --> 03:56:48,680
I had to go make things so complicated.

2974
03:56:54,600 --> 03:56:58,520
The Jackson, maybe? I know he's not, but I love just thinking that that guy's just

2975
03:56:58,520 --> 03:57:01,720
giving you a thumbs up. Nice. What up, dude?

2976
03:57:03,560 --> 03:57:06,760
This guy, too. This guy, too. Hey, you want a little bowling?

2977
03:57:08,760 --> 03:57:12,760
I mean, that was a little bit more complicated. It's still not anywhere near so is yours.

2978
03:57:12,760 --> 03:57:16,280
And I think part of the reason why I think it is is because of his under thing that he has going on.

2979
03:57:16,280 --> 03:57:18,520
So maybe not. But yeah, that's 627.

2980
03:57:21,560 --> 03:57:24,840
They're just all a lot more simple is what I'm getting out.

2981
03:57:24,840 --> 03:57:29,240
Well, because it's easier to make. That makes sense. Yep. And they're also a mass manufacturer.

2982
03:57:32,040 --> 03:57:40,920
Well, good luck, us. I hope we sell a few. And I think some people will be pleasantly surprised,

2983
03:57:42,360 --> 03:57:48,680
including Dan. I added the word designer and immediately found a $38,000 jacket.

2984
03:57:48,680 --> 03:57:51,800
Yep. Cool. What do you got? Let's see it. Let's see it.

2985
03:57:52,520 --> 03:57:54,360
Is it worth it? Fendi. So no.

2986
03:57:55,720 --> 03:57:57,800
But I mean, that was an impossible. Oh, it's not even leather.

2987
03:57:59,080 --> 03:58:01,560
Our company's still making fur. Is this fur?

2988
03:58:02,280 --> 03:58:05,400
Yeah, sheepskin. Animals. It's lamb RAM.

2989
03:58:05,400 --> 03:58:06,840
It's male sheep.

2990
03:58:09,960 --> 03:58:14,600
Really? I thought fur was like this guy. This looks like the guy from Game of Thrones almost.

2991
03:58:15,400 --> 03:58:19,480
I don't know his character name or the actor name. So good luck. Is there just one picture?

2992
03:58:20,440 --> 03:58:25,720
They went to all the work to get a model and have him put it on.

2993
03:58:26,440 --> 03:58:29,240
And they took one picture. This shirt looks so bad.

2994
03:58:31,080 --> 03:58:34,840
It's like a lot of money.

2995
03:58:35,960 --> 03:58:37,560
I don't like this stuff. I'm going away.

2996
03:58:41,320 --> 03:58:46,200
Tiana, Greyjoy. Sure. I don't know. I don't know their names, but he looks kind of like that guy.

2997
03:58:47,080 --> 03:58:50,600
If that's the right guy. That's all I got.

2998
03:58:50,600 --> 03:58:53,720
Our worksman says fur is tremendously out of fashion

2999
03:58:53,720 --> 03:58:55,960
and Crystal says yes, fur is still a thing.

3000
03:58:57,880 --> 03:59:01,160
All right. Wow. Cool.

Apparently the British army still uses Canadian black and brown bear fur.

3002
03:59:09,240 --> 03:59:12,360
Huh. Cato S says I'm a furry. Does that count? The answer is no.

3003
03:59:12,360 --> 03:59:15,080
We'll see you again next week. Same bad time. Same bad channel.

3004
03:59:18,680 --> 03:59:21,960
Bye. Bye. Would that mean you have to use them?

3005
03:59:23,640 --> 03:59:26,760
That's so much worse. Skin them.

3006
03:59:27,880 --> 03:59:28,920
It would be ethical.
