1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:02,000
Oh

2
00:00:06,600 --> 00:00:09,640
Right hi everyone. Hello

3
00:00:17,800 --> 00:00:20,000
You know what you don't have up need to

4
00:00:22,120 --> 00:00:24,120
Your face just

5
00:00:25,200 --> 00:00:29,800
Need to go post my little water bottle Um

6
00:00:30,160 --> 00:00:36,400
What were you fidgeting with before is that camera gear? Yeah, you steal camera gear. I mean it's been sitting there for

7
00:00:37,320 --> 00:00:43,800
So the fact that something was so you know if someone took the Statue of Liberty like Carmen San Diego for instance

8
00:00:44,720 --> 00:00:48,520
Her defense would just be well. It was just sitting there for yeah

9
00:00:49,200 --> 00:00:52,120
That's a pretty good defense. We should go steal the Statue of Liberty

10
00:00:53,120 --> 00:01:03,640
What happened to Carmen San Diego I That's not where on the world called not wearing the world, but what happened what happened to Carmen San Diego

11
00:01:05,160 --> 00:01:10,280
But that why did that franchise like die everyone that I know of thinks back to it like very positive

12
00:01:10,280 --> 00:01:17,400
I mean, I feel like it's the kind of thing that did you ever so I watched the first door of the Explorer live-action film with my family

13
00:01:17,560 --> 00:01:21,900
Okay, it's awesome. Didn't know that was a thing nice. Yeah, it's it's like actually awesome

14
00:01:22,440 --> 00:01:25,560
We haven't seen the second one, but apparently it's rated really well as well

15
00:01:25,800 --> 00:01:32,600
Like I really had to twist my family's ARM to watch it. I was like look it's rated really well like

16
00:01:33,120 --> 00:01:37,960
Can we just be a little open-minded and particularly my teenage son was like?

17
00:01:39,080 --> 00:01:46,760
Okay dad sure But like everyone literally the entire family enjoyed as far as teenage son things go that seems pretty reasonable

18
00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:48,920
Yeah, it was legitimately really good

19
00:01:49,800 --> 00:01:52,700
But I could see I could see like a like a modern

20
00:01:53,480 --> 00:02:00,080
A modern spin on Carmen San Diego hitting Millennials and the nostalgia feels like super hard right now

21
00:02:01,000 --> 00:02:08,200
What's up? Apparently there's a show on Netflix. Of course there was it must not be very good then because I had not heard of it

22
00:02:13,240 --> 00:02:17,080
Animated series, okay. Yeah, this looks like it's for babies it does

23
00:02:18,040 --> 00:02:21,160
That's not what to do with uh

24
00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:23,160
With a like nostalgia IP

25
00:02:24,360 --> 00:02:28,440
Apparently it's good though Go figure

26
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:34,680
89% liked it on google 7.9 on imdb 87% on rotten tomatoes. Nice

27
00:02:35,960 --> 00:02:39,080
Cool. Go go Carmen San Diego. Yeah, apparently it's uh

28
00:02:40,360 --> 00:02:44,440
Yeah, it's still fresh Okay

29
00:02:45,400 --> 00:02:47,560
Carmen San Diego who owns who owns that IP?

30
00:02:49,480 --> 00:02:53,000
Program creators Broderbund software. Wow Broderbund software is still a thing

31
00:02:53,800 --> 00:02:58,600
Was an American maker of video games defunct in 1998

32
00:03:00,840 --> 00:03:02,840
Oh interesting, okay

33
00:03:06,840 --> 00:03:08,840
Mavis B can teach his typing

34
00:03:10,440 --> 00:03:15,400
Prince of Persia Missed

35
00:03:16,520 --> 00:03:18,520
Hmm reader rabbit

36
00:03:22,120 --> 00:03:27,480
Is now the brand name for river deeps graphic design productivity and edutainment titles. Okay. Yeah, okay

37
00:03:28,120 --> 00:03:31,160
Heck is river deep man. There's some like space station game

38
00:03:31,880 --> 00:03:33,880
When I was I've brought this up on wanshow before and I

39
00:03:35,320 --> 00:03:39,000
We weren't able to find the right one the audience and I but

40
00:03:39,400 --> 00:03:44,040
There was some like space station game that I played with when I was a kid Which I'm pretty sure was like a math learning game

41
00:03:45,560 --> 00:03:49,720
And it was awesome space station math learning game

42
00:03:49,960 --> 00:03:52,360
I've ever had something to do with space stuff. I'm gonna ask AI

43
00:03:53,720 --> 00:03:55,960
It was not I don't think it was math blaster

44
00:03:57,960 --> 00:04:01,400
Math circus you were just a really confused child

45
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:08,440
Yeah, it wasn't math blaster. Okay, does this sound right?

46
00:04:09,400 --> 00:04:14,680
Late to late 90s early 2000s educational game involving space stations and math not math blasters

47
00:04:15,080 --> 00:04:18,760
Very 90s graphics, but not pixel art. It was supposed to be 3d set on a space station

48
00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:22,200
Goal was to complete very basic math problems to do things in space

49
00:04:22,280 --> 00:04:26,040
You could link up pieces of circular portals outside the ship that you could activate and fly through

50
00:04:26,040 --> 00:04:30,040
Does this any of this sound familiar the last bit lost in space math adventure

51
00:04:31,960 --> 00:04:36,840
CD access.com here we go. Hopefully this is oh, hopefully it's not that kind of CD

52
00:04:37,720 --> 00:04:44,920
Nope Definitely not. Definitely not this oh 404 not found. All right, so much for cdaccess.com and

53
00:04:45,640 --> 00:04:49,800
Entire generations of information are going to be lost now that they're not in books

54
00:04:51,080 --> 00:04:58,840
What else you guys got People are saying it was definitely math blaster. It was not math blaster. Okay. All right, like 3000

55
00:04:59,160 --> 00:05:01,160
spaceflight rescue

56
00:05:07,800 --> 00:05:09,800
And this is not the game

57
00:05:10,840 --> 00:05:15,640
Yeah, because this is like freaking x-wing versus tie fighter. This is from that reddit post

58
00:05:15,800 --> 00:05:17,800
They're like not this game, but it had this feel

59
00:05:19,240 --> 00:05:21,240
This is a star wars game

60
00:05:24,040 --> 00:05:26,680
Should we should we go live we should probably do the show at some point

61
00:05:27,560 --> 00:05:32,040
You guys down you guys ready to do it. There's multiple math blaster games. I don't

62
00:05:32,760 --> 00:05:37,240
Your face is a math blaster game got him Uh, yeah, I'm ready whenever

63
00:05:38,280 --> 00:05:44,360
Um Oh, uh, right. I wasn't here last week. My headphones are still messed up. I still only hear Linus in my right ear

64
00:05:44,440 --> 00:05:46,440
Oh, should we fix that?

65
00:05:48,200 --> 00:05:54,360
Got him. It's like actually terrible I did the whole last show with it because like we weren't going to fix it live, but it's it's horrible experience

66
00:05:55,160 --> 00:05:57,160
It just in the right ear still

67
00:05:59,400 --> 00:06:02,440
No, now I hear nothing. Oh now it's just left ear

68
00:06:03,400 --> 00:06:06,200
Uh, it's because I'm doing things down

69
00:06:11,560 --> 00:06:13,560
Math workshop

70
00:06:17,640 --> 00:06:25,000
No, but I feel like it had the graphics kind of feel right, but this is not it

71
00:06:26,680 --> 00:06:28,680
Math space workshop

72
00:06:32,680 --> 00:06:40,760
Hello. Oh, uh, okay. Hello. So it's yeah, it's not left here. It's what's not left here. There's no sound. Oh, there's no sound

73
00:06:41,080 --> 00:06:45,080
Oh, um I only hear it in the right

74
00:06:45,080 --> 00:06:50,680
Um, all right. Forget it. No show today. The streak is over. Luke's left ear can't hear anything. Wow

75
00:06:51,560 --> 00:06:54,840
Give me those headphones. Maybe it's your left ear. Okay, it's not

76
00:06:57,400 --> 00:07:00,280
Operation Neptune this doesn't look right. This is too old

77
00:07:01,080 --> 00:07:03,080
Minor vga, maybe

78
00:07:06,680 --> 00:07:15,160
Quality game Hey, are you coming to whale land this time? Yeah, hell, yeah, that's a plan. When is it? Uh, february something

79
00:07:16,040 --> 00:07:18,040
Have we sold the tickets?

80
00:07:19,160 --> 00:07:24,120
Oh, I don't even know if we ever actually did we ever actually call it out on land show. Yes, we did. Okay

81
00:07:24,920 --> 00:07:29,160
And then there was uh dates for the future ones and they pulled them down. Oh, did they?

82
00:07:30,120 --> 00:07:32,120
Oh, cool

83
00:07:33,240 --> 00:07:35,240
There's an upcoming. Oh, it's back up

All right Okay, but yeah, february 21st 22nd. I should be here. Okay whale vip is sold out

85
00:07:44,120 --> 00:07:48,440
Um regular whale land and whale land plus one foot are both remaining

86
00:07:49,000 --> 00:07:51,880
There's uh, oh, there's still like a hundred tickets left. Okay, cool

87
00:07:53,160 --> 00:07:55,240
Kids math quest this doesn't seem right either

88
00:07:56,200 --> 00:07:58,680
I think the problem with this is my description

89
00:08:00,040 --> 00:08:03,880
I think I like I'm pretty sure it was math based, but like maybe it wasn't space

90
00:08:03,960 --> 00:08:06,920
Maybe it was just a laboratory or something. I knew it math circus

91
00:08:08,040 --> 00:08:10,040
Is that wait? Is that actually a game math circus?

92
00:08:13,000 --> 00:08:19,640
Oh, no, yeah, there's no way it was definitely like sciency of some kind it's math blaster. You're just remembering wrong and you're crazy

93
00:08:19,960 --> 00:08:23,960
Whoa, okay Wow, that's some quality

94
00:08:24,040 --> 00:08:34,360
It's not math blaster guys like I'm actually Pretty maybe I'm not sure Dan. How did you do this and can you undo it? Please where I cannot select my audio output devices

95
00:08:38,280 --> 00:08:42,360
That makes me extremely unhappy. Why is that part of our process? I don't like it

96
00:08:46,280 --> 00:08:53,160
Oh, okay The hell is sound panel jumpstart adventures. Whoa jumpstart adventures sounds that's a

97
00:08:54,120 --> 00:08:56,760
It's a jumpstart adventures

98
00:08:59,400 --> 00:09:04,440
Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, this might be it Yes, I would like my speakers enabled please

99
00:09:05,240 --> 00:09:07,240
Thank you

100
00:09:08,920 --> 00:09:15,960
Raymond I don't know which version of it, but I think it's this thing. I think it's jumpstart adventures jumpstart adventures this in particular

101
00:09:17,400 --> 00:09:21,960
Oh, does that have a nostalgia feel to it? Oh my god that desktop

102
00:09:22,600 --> 00:09:29,480
Yeah, daemon tools. Yeah, I think this is right. Yeah, this is right 100%. This is it. Holy crap

103
00:09:30,760 --> 00:09:37,080
That's amazing Uh, right. Hello. Hello. No

104
00:09:37,880 --> 00:09:40,920
Just right side. I think the headphones might be like bjorked or something

105
00:09:41,480 --> 00:09:47,640
Oh, maybe it's on that side. Linus. He did. Yeah, he did. Linus unplugged it and plugged it back in and then it just never worked again

106
00:09:48,680 --> 00:09:51,880
Sorry I have that effect sometimes

107
00:09:52,920 --> 00:09:55,640
Does this come out? I thought he did. That's why Von's not in the office today

108
00:10:01,080 --> 00:10:03,080
So is crazy

109
00:10:07,000 --> 00:10:11,160
Um jumpstart sixth grade like I think this one was it

110
00:10:14,200 --> 00:10:18,440
Who Copernicus I think this was it and

111
00:10:19,160 --> 00:10:22,120
You see that like kids are

112
00:10:23,000 --> 00:10:26,440
Behind on like every cognitive test right now

113
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:32,040
Yeah, it's the first time in recorded history that IQ is going down generation to generation

114
00:10:32,440 --> 00:10:36,680
So maybe they just didn't have enough jumpstart adventures. They need more jumpstart adventures, dude

115
00:10:38,680 --> 00:10:40,680
I loved this game too

116
00:10:43,320 --> 00:10:48,280
I'm start adventures Yep

117
00:10:50,040 --> 00:10:51,960
Oh, well, there's your problem right there. I believe

118
00:11:03,480 --> 00:11:06,120
Try that if not, I'm gonna put you on to four

119
00:11:10,200 --> 00:11:12,520
I don't think that's gonna work. I think it is the

120
00:11:15,320 --> 00:11:18,840
I'm gonna talk Linus. Oh, hello. Keep talking. Hello. Yeah. No

121
00:11:22,520 --> 00:11:29,560
Okay, hear me out math circus wait, there's no sound in this video. You got to be kidding me. Oh, it's muted. Uh, yeah

122
00:11:30,440 --> 00:11:32,440
Hold on

123
00:11:34,680 --> 00:11:36,680
Well

124
00:11:38,280 --> 00:11:43,480
Yeah, I'm hearing in both ears. Yeah Now this isn't the math circus I know

125
00:11:47,000 --> 00:11:49,000
Math circus hold on

126
00:11:50,840 --> 00:11:54,040
Okay, I think I played like a bunch of the jumpstart adventures games

127
00:11:55,240 --> 00:11:58,040
I don't think it's one particular one this guy's showing off

128
00:12:03,000 --> 00:12:05,320
Showing off my jumpstart adventures experience

129
00:12:06,280 --> 00:12:10,680
So good at them Dude, I beat all of them. I'm so good

130
00:12:11,640 --> 00:12:16,680
I'm in like grade 10 playing grade six jumpstart adventures. I'm so good at this game

131
00:12:19,800 --> 00:12:22,760
Oh man, you're smurfing

132
00:12:23,720 --> 00:12:32,840
Just smurfing jumpstart adventures I love that. Oh dude, even oh man. Yeah, I must have played all these because I remember the art for jumpstart kindergarten even

133
00:12:33,480 --> 00:12:38,360
Nice, he was so good at them, dude. Oh kicks bought it jumpstart kindergarten

134
00:12:39,480 --> 00:12:41,480
That was amazing

135
00:12:49,640 --> 00:12:51,640
Look at this look at this face

136
00:12:57,720 --> 00:13:01,480
That's how everyone else felt seeing how good you were at jumpstart adventures. That was me

137
00:13:01,560 --> 00:13:03,960
That's that's how good I was I did that

138
00:13:05,160 --> 00:13:10,600
Oh, Al Linus, I'm told you have to put on your clothes. Otherwise, Jamie won't be allowed to go home

139
00:13:11,000 --> 00:13:15,960
Um, oh, okay. There should be a sweater. Why would I want Jamie to go home? Jamie's cool. He can hang

140
00:13:16,760 --> 00:13:21,160
Yeah, Linus says You're cool

141
00:13:21,160 --> 00:13:23,160
And we'll stay here

142
00:13:32,280 --> 00:13:34,280
Oh my god, I can buy

143
00:13:36,120 --> 00:13:39,320
Oh my god, it's 33 dollars. My goodness

144
00:13:41,320 --> 00:13:45,960
Jumpstart adventures sixth grade brand new in box cd rom

145
00:13:49,320 --> 00:13:55,720
I wonder how much of this I would fail now Uh, because they do they it's not just math. It's probably more than you'd think

146
00:13:55,880 --> 00:14:02,520
What province is Yugoslavia in my son was trying to get me to help him with his schoolwork the other day and I was like

147
00:14:03,880 --> 00:14:11,560
Yeah Yeah, because they have poetry literature world geography estimation geometry fractions. Well, I don't want to be fine

148
00:14:12,280 --> 00:14:14,280
Spelling and grammar art history

149
00:14:17,000 --> 00:14:19,400
No, I'm failing that for sure, dude

150
00:14:20,200 --> 00:14:25,720
Music ancient history biology and life science environmental science metaphors and analogies

151
00:14:26,360 --> 00:14:30,200
percentages critical thinking Oh

152
00:14:30,200 --> 00:14:32,680
Watch out for that one. That's a difficult chapter, man

153
00:14:34,840 --> 00:14:37,000
I don't know. You were pretty critical right before the show

154
00:14:40,200 --> 00:14:45,160
I was Someone's gotta be

155
00:14:45,320 --> 00:14:51,560
Someone's gotta or else we just have unchecked spending all over the place. Otherwise we end up with regular hits

156
00:15:00,120 --> 00:15:04,200
I got a cool, uh, I got a cool picto in expedition 33

157
00:15:04,920 --> 00:15:07,960
That picto. Yeah, don't worry about it. It's a relic

158
00:15:08,520 --> 00:15:10,520
There um cool

159
00:15:12,200 --> 00:15:17,160
And it gives you 109% crit chance. Whatever the crap that means

160
00:15:17,560 --> 00:15:22,440
Is there like critical resistance, but it reduces your, um, maximum hp to one

161
00:15:23,640 --> 00:15:27,560
So you have to dodge everything but you hit twice as hard every single time

162
00:15:28,120 --> 00:15:30,440
Huh, which is pretty cool. That is pretty cool

163
00:15:31,720 --> 00:15:33,880
I don't want to scroll pictures of this thing

164
00:15:34,920 --> 00:15:39,000
All right Oh

165
00:15:42,040 --> 00:15:44,120
I didn't have the toys I had cd-roms

166
00:15:45,400 --> 00:15:48,280
But some of which were very very likely pirated

167
00:15:49,640 --> 00:15:52,280
I already have cheater. No knowing my dad

168
00:15:54,120 --> 00:15:59,880
Cheaters op Is that one of your picdos? Yeah, one's called cheater. Yep

169
00:16:01,000 --> 00:16:04,600
Naturally, I equipped it immediately to my fire god mile

170
00:16:05,320 --> 00:16:09,800
so Yep nice

171
00:16:10,920 --> 00:16:14,760
Which is probably not the like min max way to do it, but i'm not looking up anything

172
00:16:15,320 --> 00:16:21,560
So i'm just doing my own builds weird having you talk about strategies and min maxing in a new video game

173
00:16:21,640 --> 00:16:25,960
And me having no idea what you're talking about. Oh, yeah, and it's not even like some niche ass like no game

174
00:16:26,040 --> 00:16:29,480
It's like literally the game of the year like absolutely swept the awards

175
00:16:29,880 --> 00:16:33,880
I haven't had a chance to play it. That's hilarious. It's really good. I'll play it soon. Yeah

176
00:16:34,440 --> 00:16:41,400
I uh Almost exclusively played it on a handheld up until the third act

177
00:16:42,120 --> 00:16:45,240
and then I um only recently like

178
00:16:45,880 --> 00:16:50,600
Got home and got um, I had an issue with the fan in the system in the theater room

179
00:16:50,600 --> 00:16:52,440
So i've been playing it in the theater room for the last

180
00:16:53,880 --> 00:16:57,240
Very short amount of gameplay time. I'm not that far into the third act

181
00:16:58,200 --> 00:17:03,720
I don't even know if it's a third act so much as i'm like doing stuff now like the world's completely open now

182
00:17:04,600 --> 00:17:10,440
Um, is it an open world game? I don't know. Isn't every world game kind of an open world game

183
00:17:11,640 --> 00:17:17,880
Final fantasy six is kind of an open world game. You know fantasy six more or less is yeah, there's a world

184
00:17:18,520 --> 00:17:21,400
You know you open doors treasure chests

185
00:17:24,120 --> 00:17:26,120
Corners of your soul

186
00:17:27,560 --> 00:17:32,200
I just I saw we'll talk about that later actually that's very specifically tied into the ubisoft topic

187
00:17:32,200 --> 00:17:35,960
So I'll I'll chill for now Yeah

188
00:17:35,960 --> 00:17:41,080
Um, I'm avoiding looking at chat right now because this is a highly spoilable game

189
00:17:41,480 --> 00:17:45,960
So I don't know how much you do or don't know but I just wouldn't be looking at chat anytime we talk about it at all

190
00:17:45,960 --> 00:17:50,680
Understood. I don't know anything about it. So yeah, yeah, and it's better if you don't I've been trying to keep it that way

191
00:17:50,840 --> 00:17:55,960
Yeah, because like I actually do care about enjoying this game because it sounds amazing. Yeah, it's really good

192
00:17:56,360 --> 00:18:01,000
And I just I haven't really you know a little obtuse sometimes but really good

193
00:18:02,440 --> 00:18:08,520
Yeah, they the opening like Like sequence before you actually like like the tutorial

194
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:16,200
Like sucks you in like crazy. Just gets you super engaged in like the world building. They're doing they don't tell you anything. They just like

195
00:18:17,720 --> 00:18:24,120
You gotta put you in let you figure it out. That's cool. All right. Should we do this thing? Let's do this thing, Dan

196
00:18:24,200 --> 00:18:28,680
Oh, wait, I'm the one who's supposed to do them Oh, why do I always forget?

197
00:18:29,560 --> 00:18:34,040
I Reminded him earlier

198
00:18:35,080 --> 00:18:38,440
Apparently people are playing uh jump start adventure

199
00:18:41,320 --> 00:18:46,520
Heck yeah Can I do that instead of merge messages? No, ah

200
00:18:48,440 --> 00:18:51,880
No, I'm not as good as math as you is luke

201
00:18:53,800 --> 00:18:59,160
Need more practices I kind of want to play oh, I kind of want to like go back to school by

202
00:18:59,880 --> 00:19:03,000
Going from kindergarten to grade six through jump start adventures

203
00:19:12,920 --> 00:19:14,920
I can't believe someone figured it out

204
00:19:21,160 --> 00:19:24,520
I didn't even recognize who it was. Sorry I got too excited

205
00:19:25,800 --> 00:19:27,800
I

206
00:19:39,000 --> 00:19:44,760
Blue wackadoo. Well, thank you appreciate it. I like your name

207
00:19:47,880 --> 00:19:52,520
Okay, all right, okay All right, okay

208
00:19:56,280 --> 00:20:05,400
You Make sure I only ever screwed that up one time Dan one time only telling you this because it changed this week so mean

209
00:20:07,720 --> 00:20:14,760
No Yes, he's trying to be helpful minus. Yeah, so why does he do it in such a mean way? He's not

210
00:20:15,640 --> 00:20:17,640
He is

211
00:20:18,680 --> 00:20:21,400
Oh my god, I prefer a median way

212
00:20:25,880 --> 00:20:27,880
Oh, man

213
00:20:30,360 --> 00:20:33,640
Now on all employees have to be exactly average never mean

214
00:20:37,160 --> 00:20:39,160
New company policy

215
00:20:47,480 --> 00:20:49,480
Sigma employees only

216
00:20:50,680 --> 00:20:56,760
That doesn't work very much Those work too well, but there you go. Yeah, and we'd have to get rid of me

217
00:20:59,080 --> 00:21:01,080
We all know on beta as fuck

218
00:21:02,360 --> 00:21:05,400
That's gonna is it or are new babies beta generation yet?

219
00:21:06,120 --> 00:21:11,480
No, I don't think so. That's gonna suck. Yeah, that's rough. That's gonna be so brutal

220
00:21:12,120 --> 00:21:16,360
Yes, they are really when does it start? um

221
00:21:16,360 --> 00:21:20,440
I think my son's gen alpha. Yeah, I'm pretty sure which makes sense

222
00:21:21,400 --> 00:21:26,680
Does it though? I mean the names are so stupid. No, I well, how could we possibly have greatest generation?

223
00:21:26,680 --> 00:21:30,440
I was saying and then what no generation can ever be greatest again

224
00:21:31,080 --> 00:21:35,080
Like I what about silent? I could be silent. I see how silent my

225
00:21:37,480 --> 00:21:42,920
The worst member of silent generation ever I don't know what you're talking about

226
00:21:43,640 --> 00:21:48,040
Oh Greatest generation two

227
00:21:48,600 --> 00:21:54,600
Greatest generation alpha Greatest generation two electric boo boo like what are we?

228
00:21:56,040 --> 00:22:01,480
I tried to I tried to talk jordan into calling a video something three electric beagle

229
00:22:04,840 --> 00:22:09,160
We're not titling the video that I

230
00:22:09,720 --> 00:22:16,520
Like that a lot apparently gen beta started 2025. Oh, okay. Yeah, it checks out

231
00:22:18,520 --> 00:22:23,480
That sucks Okay, I am resuming the selected. We ready to go

232
00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:29,400
Oh, apparently there's uh, some debate about it and I don't care. So I'm not gonna look into it. Cool. All right. Got him

233
00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:34,280
Dan's ready. Oh good. Thank god Dan's ready

234
00:22:37,400 --> 00:22:42,600
He's locked in look at him go. He is ready. Actually, you know what? I'm sorry. I mocked him. I regret it

235
00:22:44,360 --> 00:22:49,480
This was one of the worst choices I ever made in my life He's very good at lying, isn't he?

236
00:22:50,600 --> 00:22:55,240
Yeah, well, you know True true true

237
00:22:55,240 --> 00:22:57,240
Oh

238
00:23:03,080 --> 00:23:07,960
Interesting am Kerr in full plane chat said I'm the coo of a research institute here in the uk

239
00:23:08,280 --> 00:23:15,240
And I actually got my researchers to stop using generational breakdowns because the academic consensus on when they start and when they end is so

240
00:23:15,320 --> 00:23:19,240
Loosely defined. No, it's it's total nonsense. It just means nothing. Yeah

241
00:23:20,040 --> 00:23:22,040
like there definitely are

242
00:23:23,080 --> 00:23:27,080
kind of like things

243
00:23:27,080 --> 00:23:32,600
But where they start and end trying to just assign a date to it is just obviously stupid to me a lot of it's like

244
00:23:33,800 --> 00:23:40,600
Did you substantially experience pre-internet? Yes or no? Did you substantially experience pre-smartphone? Yes or no?

245
00:23:40,920 --> 00:23:45,880
Yeah, like those are those are create differences and like the experiences that people have absolutely

246
00:23:46,440 --> 00:23:52,360
Did you substantially experience pre car pre television pre radio? Whatever?

247
00:23:53,320 --> 00:23:58,120
And I know like it makes sense for me to tie it into technological leaps

248
00:23:58,120 --> 00:24:03,000
But I think that just actually does make sense because that changes the your experience of your life

249
00:24:03,320 --> 00:24:06,760
And how you consume information stuff, which is going to change

250
00:24:07,960 --> 00:24:09,960
people largely

251
00:24:12,200 --> 00:24:18,920
W culturini and Floatplane chat goes on the last of the boomers 1963 and no I do not have all of your stuff

252
00:24:23,160 --> 00:24:27,240
Before you ask It ain't me

253
00:24:27,240 --> 00:24:30,440
All right, I'm resuming the selected now Dan. Do you want to signal me when we're good?

254
00:24:30,680 --> 00:24:32,680
Okay

255
00:24:47,320 --> 00:24:52,520
What is up everybody and welcome to the wandshow I forget

256
00:24:53,160 --> 00:24:55,960
Which one was the headline title today?

257
00:24:56,440 --> 00:25:00,680
Ah, yes, of course. Thank you producer Dan for whispering my ear

258
00:25:00,920 --> 00:25:03,560
We've got a lot of great topics for you guys today

259
00:25:03,960 --> 00:25:07,800
apple is reportedly working on an ai wearable pin because

260
00:25:08,680 --> 00:25:12,280
That worked so well the times that other companies tried to do it

261
00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:19,400
I mean, who knows apple does tend to do that They take something other people do kind of crappily and they do it better if only anybody wanted that

262
00:25:19,960 --> 00:25:31,080
Yeah, also Uh, sony has given up 51 percent of its bravia tv business to china's tcl and a new

263
00:25:31,720 --> 00:25:35,640
strategic partnership which sounds an awful lot more like a uh

264
00:25:37,080 --> 00:25:41,160
Strategic, uh, well, you know what when you give someone a controlling stake in your business

265
00:25:41,240 --> 00:25:49,080
Look, I'm just saying that sony doesn't control their tv business anymore, which is wild to me as a 90s kid

266
00:25:50,040 --> 00:25:52,680
What else we got that was wild

267
00:25:54,440 --> 00:26:00,440
Speaking of wild uh, and companies maybe like kind of not existing anymore ubi soft just

268
00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:09,400
Are you okay? Yeah, I just I couldn't tell if our chair partner isn't okay ubi soft

269
00:26:09,400 --> 00:26:11,400
I

270
00:26:15,400 --> 00:26:22,680
Can tell if our chair partner razor has their ARM rests at a different level or if I am just a lopsided human

271
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:30,680
I think based on that they both tuck under the table at the same height. It's me. Hi. I'm the problem. It's me carry on

272
00:26:30,920 --> 00:26:38,040
speaking about Lot lopsided. I don't know youtube blog. What's new for youtube in 2026? Oh, I'm actually excited about this

273
00:26:38,200 --> 00:26:42,600
Yeah, I saw one thing I liked and then I ignored the rest of it and so hopefully the rest is good too

274
00:26:42,600 --> 00:26:44,600
Uh

275
00:27:02,040 --> 00:27:06,120
The wancho is brought to you today by Rove lab

276
00:27:06,120 --> 00:27:13,400
Squarespace Factor meals and odu alongside our rap partner dbrand and our laptop partner razor

277
00:27:13,960 --> 00:27:16,600
They already got a shout out for the chair so they don't get another one

278
00:27:17,480 --> 00:27:24,680
That's all i'm contractually obligated to do What do we want to get into first? How about we jump right into apple?

279
00:27:25,240 --> 00:27:30,440
Reportedly working on an ai wearable pin the information

280
00:27:30,920 --> 00:27:39,080
Great domain by the way great snag the information.com fantastic work with that you guys the information reports

281
00:27:39,480 --> 00:27:43,400
That apple is working on an ai powered wearable pin

282
00:27:44,040 --> 00:27:50,440
The pins tech features are speculated to be many packed with two cameras

283
00:27:50,680 --> 00:27:57,160
Including a standard and wide-angle lens three microphones a speaker and a physical button

284
00:27:58,120 --> 00:28:04,920
Its shell is Rumored because this is all all rumors functionally pure speculation at this point

285
00:28:05,320 --> 00:28:11,800
Its shell is rumored to be aluminum and glass with a magnetic inductive charger like the apple watch

286
00:28:12,280 --> 00:28:18,440
And the target size is apparently a little thicker than an air tag with about the same circumference

287
00:28:19,320 --> 00:28:23,080
Can I interrupt myself for one moment here?

288
00:28:23,800 --> 00:28:27,160
Yes, sure. No problem Linus. Go ahead. Thank you

289
00:28:27,880 --> 00:28:33,000
um I would like to point out that if apple does go ahead and make this out of metal

290
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:38,760
Aluminum is a light metal, but it's metal um and glass which is rocks

291
00:28:39,400 --> 00:28:49,080
um Thank you for that. Yes. Let's flash our no the ai pin. What are you trying to show the people out there very deep

292
00:28:49,880 --> 00:28:56,280
You really you really send it on that one I mean, is it any deeper than I usually go? Yeah

293
00:28:57,560 --> 00:29:04,360
Well They have these great ads on these fantastic websites about you know

294
00:29:05,160 --> 00:29:08,280
Improving your ability to you know what the point is

295
00:29:08,920 --> 00:29:14,760
That this wouldn't be the first time that apple made a device that needs to be light

296
00:29:15,480 --> 00:29:23,160
For its use case And they just need to make it and they go and they make it out of these heavy more but yeah, and what if it was made of

297
00:29:23,160 --> 00:29:26,200
meddling glass um

298
00:29:26,200 --> 00:29:35,160
Anyway to be clear none of this is confirmed But I hope that they would think to make it out of something really light if it is intended to be worn as a pin of any sort

299
00:29:35,960 --> 00:29:42,920
It seems that apple is wanting this wearable to compete with a product that is coming from open ai's collaboration with jony ive later in

300
00:29:43,480 --> 00:29:49,720
2026 however Allegedly the apple product is not likely to launch until 2027

301
00:29:50,280 --> 00:29:57,400
um, our discussion question here is Apparently apple plans to produce around 20 million units at launch

302
00:29:57,960 --> 00:30:01,240
Is that a realistic number of ai pins?

303
00:30:01,800 --> 00:30:04,040
Given how other ai pins have

304
00:30:04,840 --> 00:30:11,400
Catastrophically failed and maybe the bigger conversation here is what would you even want from an ai pin?

305
00:30:11,800 --> 00:30:14,040
What would be a useful ai pin to you?

306
00:30:15,560 --> 00:30:17,960
I have noticed two separate people

307
00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:24,120
That I know Really deep diving ai stuff recently. Yeah, and I okay. I don't mean

308
00:30:24,760 --> 00:30:30,680
Getting really into like how it all works and stuff like that. I mean really just letting it take over their lives completely

309
00:30:31,080 --> 00:30:33,080
um including like

310
00:30:34,280 --> 00:30:40,520
Some pretty important things just being left to like the ai autopilot as far as I can tell I got to know you got it

311
00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:44,200
You don't have to name any names, but like like what are we talking meals?

312
00:30:44,600 --> 00:30:48,760
Are we talking? Oh, yeah, how to talk to their spouse like like relationship?

313
00:30:49,320 --> 00:30:53,000
Yeah, okay, so these are very important things. Yeah, okay meals

314
00:30:53,080 --> 00:30:58,200
Honestly, I think for a lot of people meals are not a deep dive for ai stuff right right right right pretty common

315
00:30:58,760 --> 00:31:05,160
Like okay, so although it does a terrible job and you probably shouldn't do that right in my experience

316
00:31:05,560 --> 00:31:12,840
Right right right because it recommends something other than chicken which it's obviously everyone knows is the 100 success meal. Yeah

317
00:31:12,840 --> 00:31:17,880
Yeah, yeah, I you know my meal plan might just be actually even more chicken

318
00:31:19,080 --> 00:31:25,880
Moving forward really you're gonna eat more. How could you eat more chicken less rice less rice more chicken? Okay

319
00:31:26,840 --> 00:31:30,040
uh good

320
00:31:30,760 --> 00:31:36,760
Sorry, I'm just trying to I'm trying to find something because I tried to use ai for

321
00:31:37,720 --> 00:31:43,640
Not quite the first time But one of the first times when okay, when is that video coming out?

322
00:31:44,680 --> 00:31:49,880
Oh, no not that one when is that video coming out? I know that needs to come out at some point, but that's a separate conversation

323
00:31:49,880 --> 00:31:58,280
Okay, uh, so I I was in this ultimate fighting bots like robot fight thing and I'm trying to find the freaking

324
00:31:59,000 --> 00:32:01,960
um ufb

325
00:32:02,680 --> 00:32:06,520
What what Hold on okay

326
00:32:06,600 --> 00:32:11,640
Anyway, I was in it and I had to look up who one of the other competitors was

327
00:32:12,120 --> 00:32:19,800
Because they you know, they were super cool. They were super nice But it was one of those things where I like I didn't catch their name at the very beginning

328
00:32:19,960 --> 00:32:24,840
And we were hanging out for long enough that it reached the point where it was going to be kind of embarrassing

329
00:32:25,320 --> 00:32:35,000
If I had to ask again So my brilliant idea was I I took a picture of the of like the the operator

330
00:32:35,960 --> 00:32:41,160
card like little handout that they had and I I circled the person

331
00:32:41,800 --> 00:32:45,640
And I used my oh, oh, this is a video. Good lord

332
00:32:46,360 --> 00:32:52,040
Uh, here we go. Oh, of course. It's a video. Everything's a video. Why is everything of freaking video?

333
00:32:52,440 --> 00:32:55,640
I just want a not video video make man

334
00:32:59,480 --> 00:33:04,680
Listen I am doing my best right now. Okay. I am not perfect

335
00:33:05,000 --> 00:33:10,440
I am trying ultimate fighting bots 5. Okay. I'm just trying to find the post. You know what? It doesn't matter the point is

336
00:33:10,840 --> 00:33:17,320
I held the button on my thing. I circled the person and I said who is this and it was like

337
00:33:17,720 --> 00:33:20,040
Sorry, I can't give you results about people

338
00:33:21,240 --> 00:33:23,800
And I was like, this is literally a tech influencer

339
00:33:24,440 --> 00:33:28,440
This is a public figure. I'm not it's not like I'm it's not like I'm discreetly

340
00:33:28,680 --> 00:33:34,440
Snapping a picture of someone at the gym being like give me her home address, you know, like it's it's not

341
00:33:34,520 --> 00:33:38,360
It's not creepy. I just want to know like you gotta use grok for that

342
00:33:38,440 --> 00:33:42,600
Yeah, like like if if someone has hundreds of thousands of followers or whatever

343
00:33:43,080 --> 00:33:47,400
I I would think that it would just tell me like who is this

344
00:33:48,520 --> 00:33:52,840
Sort of broadly speaking and I tried it for myself too. It wouldn't even tell me who I was

345
00:33:53,800 --> 00:34:01,640
Which is Like where so where's the where's the line? It feels like an existential crisis waiting to happen. It just feels it just feels kind of

346
00:34:02,280 --> 00:34:10,120
useless Um And so I'm dude. I I tried to call someone on staff while I was driving

347
00:34:10,520 --> 00:34:17,160
And I I did like hey google called this person and it called some like random grocery store with a somewhat similar name

348
00:34:17,480 --> 00:34:21,640
It's it feels like the same problem as google you've talked about this with trying to call your wife

349
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:25,240
Um, it feels like a similar problem to like Windows search

350
00:34:25,720 --> 00:34:29,880
Where it's like if there's a close match In my contacts list

351
00:34:29,880 --> 00:34:34,120
Maybe go with that first instead of a random grocery store

352
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:38,600
I I tried to navigate to a community center in surrey

353
00:34:39,080 --> 00:34:42,600
And it uh, it tried to navigate to somewhere in like the states

354
00:34:43,640 --> 00:34:50,040
When I when I tried to use my voice for ways I I am I am at the point now where I am just I want to

355
00:34:50,280 --> 00:34:58,680
I want to put my fist through the Through the freaking dash of my car every time I have to use my voice to interact with Android auto or carplay

356
00:34:59,080 --> 00:35:04,760
I I just I'm so done with it It's so much slower and so much less reliable

357
00:35:05,160 --> 00:35:10,760
Then just being allowed to type a couple of letters and let the auto complete go and then and then press the thing

358
00:35:11,160 --> 00:35:13,880
I I don't understand the completely

359
00:35:14,920 --> 00:35:16,920
freaking

360
00:35:17,960 --> 00:35:23,400
Wrong Thinking that has gone into these these alternative interfaces

361
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:28,840
Whether it's the little like like I draw on a touchpad here or I have a knob to go through the letters

362
00:35:29,240 --> 00:35:33,880
Here or I draw on a screen up here or I use my voice, which is just it's it's so

363
00:35:34,920 --> 00:35:39,480
So unreliable that it causes so much more distraction than if I could just

364
00:35:40,360 --> 00:35:46,840
Tap what is usually just three or four letters and it will it'll auto complete wherever it is that I'm trying to go

365
00:35:47,560 --> 00:35:52,040
Um, anyway, so so what would what would we want out of an ai pin?

366
00:35:52,120 --> 00:35:58,440
I guess I guess my issue is that every interaction that I don't believe it's going to work had with it has been so

367
00:35:59,240 --> 00:36:03,480
Unreliable and so useless that I just I don't want anything

368
00:36:03,960 --> 00:36:09,400
Like okay another perfect example And I know that this is something that is tunable by the car manufacturer

369
00:36:09,400 --> 00:36:18,440
So I don't know if this is across the board with Android auto But I'll be having a conversation with my kids in the car and I'll hit my my my voice button on my steering wheel

370
00:36:18,840 --> 00:36:20,840
And I'll be like hey tell me about the

371
00:36:22,600 --> 00:36:24,600
The the battle of waterloo

372
00:36:25,640 --> 00:36:28,040
And it'll be like I'm sorry. I can't do that

373
00:36:29,160 --> 00:36:33,560
f***ing why I can listen to audiobooks

374
00:36:34,200 --> 00:36:40,120
I can listen to the radio I can talk to other people in the car. I can

375
00:36:40,840 --> 00:36:48,520
I I the only successful things I can routinely do through voice controls is set alarms and start music playing

376
00:36:48,680 --> 00:36:52,120
Even getting it to play really specific songs can sometimes be a problem

377
00:36:52,360 --> 00:36:57,240
But I can just get it to like just play music and it will it will generally do it

378
00:36:58,120 --> 00:37:04,920
So i'm just kind of sitting here going I know how some of the people around here use their their metaglasses

379
00:37:05,240 --> 00:37:09,000
For instance, like start recording video stop recording video

380
00:37:09,400 --> 00:37:13,640
I guess that's something but I can't think of any reason why I would want that to be on a pin

381
00:37:14,120 --> 00:37:21,240
Rather than my my my field of view feels objectively faster to be sorry objectively better to be your glasses because pin is

382
00:37:21,640 --> 00:37:28,280
Effectively never going to be pointed or stable exact right spot. Yeah, there's the pro honestly if it weighs

383
00:37:29,160 --> 00:37:34,840
almost any amount And like has a battery in it. So there's like a bit of a floor

384
00:37:35,640 --> 00:37:41,080
It's going to tug down on your shirt if you remember that that ai pin that epically failed

385
00:37:41,960 --> 00:37:46,520
In all of their marketing and all of their test videos and everything they were wearing relatively heavy clothing

386
00:37:47,240 --> 00:37:51,320
And pinned it on that it was like seemed pretty obvious as to why they were doing that

387
00:37:51,800 --> 00:37:55,640
And then the other main use case is that kind of just

388
00:37:56,440 --> 00:38:00,840
Uh, tell me about this. What's the how many us dollars is this?

389
00:38:01,480 --> 00:38:06,200
You know it and it's in some other currency or whatever like like that sort of thing, which again

390
00:38:07,240 --> 00:38:09,640
I would much rather have on glasses

391
00:38:10,520 --> 00:38:16,520
From my point of view rather than like what i'm gonna i'll like hold stuff up to my

392
00:38:17,320 --> 00:38:22,760
pin And hope that I have it framed correctly and it has the you know enough

393
00:38:23,800 --> 00:38:27,560
Situational awareness to understand what exactly it is that i'm asking it about

394
00:38:28,120 --> 00:38:31,240
I don't know this just and I understand like some people aren't going to want to wear glasses

395
00:38:31,240 --> 00:38:33,480
But I don't think the answer to that problem is

396
00:38:34,440 --> 00:38:38,840
Pinnable things we also have to remember that apple has enough r&d budget

397
00:38:39,080 --> 00:38:45,240
To buy the earth and all the heavens so they could conceivably r&d this entire product all the way to

398
00:38:45,800 --> 00:38:52,600
manufacturability And and then just and then just go hey, that was a really great learning experience. Let's make it into our glasses

399
00:38:53,480 --> 00:38:55,960
Yes, that makes far more sense to me personally

400
00:38:56,600 --> 00:39:00,280
Or they can just pull another apple vision pro. What's the what's the last?

401
00:39:00,280 --> 00:39:03,720
I don't think they do want to pull another apple vision pro. I don't think anyone does

402
00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:07,560
What's the last product that apple released that was net new?

403
00:39:08,280 --> 00:39:13,320
That went well. I mean we talked about this is it watch we started to talk about this on the show earlier

404
00:39:13,400 --> 00:39:15,560
And it's been it's been tough apple has been

405
00:39:16,600 --> 00:39:20,520
Tim cook has done a lot of things really well um

406
00:39:20,520 --> 00:39:27,080
Like apple is is a supply chain management monster like they're absolutely incredible

407
00:39:27,400 --> 00:39:32,840
They have they have executed on the yearly cadence for iphone with

408
00:39:34,520 --> 00:39:43,160
Precision so Good, you could set your apple watch to it, you know, like they've they've come up with accessories for the iphone like the apple watch

409
00:39:43,720 --> 00:39:47,880
um Guys airpods 4 is not a net new product. I'm talking new product line

410
00:39:47,960 --> 00:39:54,120
Well airpods, I would say is but is net new. I agree hugely successful

411
00:39:54,360 --> 00:39:56,840
But was that after before the watch but again?

412
00:39:57,400 --> 00:40:03,320
Uh post watch. Yeah, but again, it's it's it's an iphone accessory, right?

413
00:40:03,400 --> 00:40:11,480
It's not a completely new category of product in the way that I think you're you're asking me. Yeah, uh apple silicon is

414
00:40:12,120 --> 00:40:20,600
Unbelievable absolutely incredible Um, it's a component of but it's a component of a mac book which was already a thing that existed and

415
00:40:21,240 --> 00:40:24,440
I I think I honestly ai pin

416
00:40:25,000 --> 00:40:29,240
Just kind of feels like like like like desperate thrashing

417
00:40:30,200 --> 00:40:38,280
Trying to find yeah something new and some some relevance in this ai obsessed corporate world right now

418
00:40:38,840 --> 00:40:45,160
Um frizer says mac mini. Yeah, there's a new mac mini, but the mac mini has not a new existed forever

419
00:40:45,240 --> 00:40:50,840
And it's just a computer. Yeah What when did the first mac mini come out? We're essentially

420
00:40:51,640 --> 00:40:56,600
Drilling down to 2006. No 2005 apparently according to ai

421
00:40:57,400 --> 00:41:02,360
um Yeah, wild Wait, was there a mac mini?

422
00:41:03,000 --> 00:41:06,440
Holy crap. There was a mac mini before Intel

423
00:41:07,000 --> 00:41:13,160
power pcg for mac mini Support dot apple.com is the source. I think I'll take their word for it

424
00:41:14,040 --> 00:41:17,640
That ati graphics brother so

425
00:41:17,640 --> 00:41:21,640
Yeah, mac mini is not it is not what would count as a as a new

426
00:41:22,520 --> 00:41:26,920
A product for for apple apple tv. Yeah, I'll I'll accept apple tv

427
00:41:27,400 --> 00:41:31,800
What it even looked like surprisingly modern

428
00:41:32,680 --> 00:41:37,160
That's pretty cool. Like this is the back of it. That's pretty cool. That's crazy

429
00:41:39,720 --> 00:41:43,320
Huh Okay

430
00:41:43,320 --> 00:41:45,960
Home pod. Yeah, but we were asking for successful products

431
00:41:48,280 --> 00:41:51,400
Like they've they've really struggled to come up with a new thing

432
00:41:51,400 --> 00:41:57,160
They worked for years on that car project and then just canned it the watch came out one year before the air pods

433
00:41:57,160 --> 00:42:03,560
You write air pods came out uh came out uh after air takes cool, but I stand behind that's an iphone accessory

434
00:42:03,880 --> 00:42:08,840
um It doesn't work without an iphone anything that doesn't work. I do

435
00:42:09,720 --> 00:42:17,720
Okay, this is interesting One of the things that I've gone off on multiple times is the way that apple treats

436
00:42:18,120 --> 00:42:22,040
Buyers of their products like second-class citizens if they haven't bought

437
00:42:22,760 --> 00:42:29,960
Enough of their products and I do start to wonder if that's something that culturally at apple could be holding them back

438
00:42:30,680 --> 00:42:33,400
If they're afraid to make something that

439
00:42:34,040 --> 00:42:38,600
Isn't an iphone accessory because air pods don't have to be an iphone accessory

440
00:42:39,800 --> 00:42:45,320
They could have all the same functionality. They could on Android or on a pc. They could

441
00:42:45,800 --> 00:42:50,600
But they decide that they don't they decide that you can't even so much as update your firmware

442
00:42:51,000 --> 00:42:55,400
Unless you have an apple device to connect it to and and so I

443
00:42:56,040 --> 00:43:04,440
You know i'm thinking you know, you know air pods How many more air pods could they have sold if they were cross platform and you you could just use them with anything

444
00:43:09,560 --> 00:43:12,760
I don't think that much more which might be an unfortunate answer

445
00:43:12,920 --> 00:43:18,520
Maybe a lot of people that I know that have androids just also have air pods and just deal with them being crap

446
00:43:19,960 --> 00:43:28,440
Yeah, no, that's fair Um, yeah, I've heard of libra pods super cool project. Um, I haven't actually started using it

447
00:43:28,840 --> 00:43:35,560
Um, correctly But yeah that that whole that whole mentality that they have that you're not really an apple user. You're not

448
00:43:36,280 --> 00:43:42,040
You're not you're not really like a customer that we need to take care of and provide basic

449
00:43:42,760 --> 00:43:48,360
Personality that we advertise for the product or the ability to keep the keep it software firmware up to date

450
00:43:48,520 --> 00:43:52,200
Unless you've you've bought more of our products. You have to buy you have to buy more of our products

451
00:43:52,200 --> 00:43:55,400
You really should have an iphone the fact that you I mean you don't have an iphone

452
00:43:55,400 --> 00:44:02,040
Why would you need to be able to man? What was it? I was trying to I was trying to like cancel a subscription on my apple tv

453
00:44:02,520 --> 00:44:09,000
And it was like a super super tedious roundabout process if I didn't have an iphone for some reason or another

454
00:44:09,000 --> 00:44:12,680
I forget the exact details around it um

455
00:44:12,680 --> 00:44:22,360
uh Yeah, I don't know. I don't think ai pin is the answer and uh, it it really does seem like they're just at sort of a loss

456
00:44:22,360 --> 00:44:26,520
They've become kind of a follower like vision pro has been such a disaster

457
00:44:27,000 --> 00:44:30,600
And I I think I can say that objectively at this point

458
00:44:31,480 --> 00:44:33,880
When's the last time you saw somebody using one?

459
00:44:34,840 --> 00:44:40,600
This is an apple product Like if it doesn't move millions and millions of units, it's it

460
00:44:41,160 --> 00:44:45,480
Was not worth them lifting a finger to to develop it. Um

461
00:44:49,160 --> 00:44:55,720
Yeah, apple mac pro wheels that those were new you're right, but I don't think those are going to go down as a major success

462
00:44:56,520 --> 00:44:59,000
Yeah, I do think glasses would kill

463
00:45:01,640 --> 00:45:05,880
Yeah, assuming they're good if they had good smart glasses they would destroy

464
00:45:06,680 --> 00:45:10,120
I mean, it's not like anyone That I know of

465
00:45:10,120 --> 00:45:16,360
loves meta Yeah, you know, I don't think that facebook slash meta

466
00:45:17,480 --> 00:45:23,480
Slash oculus slash whatever you want to sort of cull what they're doing with their augmented reality stuff. Um

467
00:45:25,160 --> 00:45:31,320
I don't think anyone is rooting for them to win. No, it's just they happen to have a product that

468
00:45:32,280 --> 00:45:39,800
Is admittedly quite appealing like the video quality out of those glasses is mind blowing to me for how compact it is

469
00:45:40,920 --> 00:45:45,480
Like super cool Personally, I haven't

470
00:45:45,480 --> 00:45:52,120
found myself craving Them and I and I do I am starting to wonder if I'm just becoming a bit of a boomer

471
00:45:52,680 --> 00:45:58,680
Because I've been I actually saw there's a post on the red at asking Linus where the heck's your Garmin smartwatch video

472
00:45:59,480 --> 00:46:06,040
And part of the reason that I haven't done the ShortCircuit yet. It's it's going to be a ShortCircuit is that I just

473
00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:09,560
Haven't interacted with it very much

474
00:46:10,520 --> 00:46:20,040
I don't really care about it Um, I it got my attention today because I left my accidentally left my phone in my office and I ran to the washroom to

475
00:46:20,920 --> 00:46:26,920
Pick all of the mucho burrito out of my braces after lunch because that's part of my life. It's a fun experience

476
00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:30,920
Yeah, it's good. That's it's nice. There's a whole second meal in there. Um, yeah

477
00:46:31,480 --> 00:46:35,080
Anyway, uh, so someone called me on teams and I was like, oh, oh shoot

478
00:46:35,240 --> 00:46:38,920
Oh, so my my wrist starts vibrating and I and I realized I was like, oh, I can't

479
00:46:39,640 --> 00:46:43,400
actually interact with this because they're calling on teams and

480
00:46:44,200 --> 00:46:48,440
Um, all I can do is decline the call. I can't send a message. I can't

481
00:46:49,000 --> 00:46:53,800
Accept the call. I just it's okay. So I'll just run back to my desk then so functionally

482
00:46:53,800 --> 00:46:58,360
I it didn't it didn't do much. It didn't change. It didn't really change my life

483
00:46:58,440 --> 00:47:03,480
I use it to set timers when I do badminton training on uh, Monday night

484
00:47:03,560 --> 00:47:06,840
I feel like everything for you and me is like that that uh

485
00:47:07,880 --> 00:47:11,880
Whatever that tv show is uh, where there's a little robot. It's like, what is my purpose?

486
00:47:12,360 --> 00:47:20,680
And for us, it's always just like you set timers You see like all the ai systems just suck at everything else. So we're just like whatever you set timers now rick and morty. Yeah, there we go

487
00:47:20,680 --> 00:47:23,320
Yeah, yeah, uh, yeah, you pass butter

488
00:47:24,280 --> 00:47:29,320
uh Yeah, I I just and the glaces

489
00:47:30,040 --> 00:47:33,560
I feel like it would be the same for me. There's there's there was one time

490
00:47:34,040 --> 00:47:37,080
Uh, well, we're starting a family vlog. So there you go. There's that

491
00:47:37,560 --> 00:47:43,160
Um, so there was one time we were we were playing volleyball at the at the on the beach

492
00:47:43,720 --> 00:47:48,760
And I realized afterward man I brought metaglasses with me on this trip so that I could like try them

493
00:47:48,760 --> 00:47:53,880
This would have been a perfect use case for it. So like like vlogging or something like that

494
00:47:53,960 --> 00:47:58,040
Yeah, I could I could see having a camera mounted to your head all the time being super useful

495
00:47:58,360 --> 00:48:02,440
I haven't seen a lot of Maybe this is my sphere of

496
00:48:02,520 --> 00:48:05,320
of uh content, but I haven't seen a lot of like

497
00:48:06,440 --> 00:48:08,840
Video filmed with metaglasses content

498
00:48:10,040 --> 00:48:13,720
Maybe you didn't realize I don't

499
00:48:13,720 --> 00:48:21,240
Really? I don't think so. Okay It's really good though. Like shockingly good. I was really surprised by how good the quality was when I used it

500
00:48:21,560 --> 00:48:23,560
I just actually don't really think so though

501
00:48:26,920 --> 00:48:31,320
I like are you they just have you guys is there big creators doing this?

502
00:48:31,800 --> 00:48:41,240
Have you guys seen anybody? Yeah, let us know I mean everyone's talking about adult content in chat because classic degenerate chat. That makes sense. Sure. Yep. That makes sense

503
00:48:42,040 --> 00:48:50,520
Yeah, because I just I don't know I'm kind of surprised that I haven't but then I I also wonder if that's more on like the short form content realm

504
00:48:50,520 --> 00:48:52,520
Which I generally try to stay away from

505
00:48:55,480 --> 00:48:58,760
I haven't seen either shorts creators

506
00:48:58,760 --> 00:49:05,960
Yeah, dna. I'm not I'm not like seeking out Um videos from people who have them to be clear. Um

507
00:49:06,840 --> 00:49:11,960
I just haven't actually like seen a lot So if it's if it's mostly just shorts creators that make sense because I kind of avoid that

508
00:49:13,160 --> 00:49:15,160
Yeah

509
00:49:16,440 --> 00:49:20,280
Okay I got a browser add-on

510
00:49:20,280 --> 00:49:23,720
that removes shorts from

511
00:49:24,280 --> 00:49:28,040
My youtube page. Nice. They're just gone. How's that going for you? Great?

512
00:49:28,680 --> 00:49:34,360
cool I tried the I tried the official way which is show me fewer shorts

513
00:49:34,760 --> 00:49:40,120
Doesn't work at all. I I've yeah, I've heard that but I don't think I've used youtube since I clicked the button

514
00:49:40,200 --> 00:49:43,240
So I haven't noticed. Yeah. No, I tried that. I didn't do anything

515
00:49:43,880 --> 00:49:46,920
Uh, which browser add-on is it? I don't remember the name. Cool

516
00:49:48,440 --> 00:49:52,040
Uh, apparently there's a pilot according to dense one in Floatplane chat

517
00:49:52,360 --> 00:49:57,000
That does some cool long form videos with meta meta glasses. That would be awesome

518
00:49:57,240 --> 00:50:02,520
See, that's like a cool use case that I think those are probably particularly good for because like a gopro

519
00:50:02,920 --> 00:50:06,200
In that scenario would be very annoying to wear. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah

520
00:50:06,760 --> 00:50:09,880
In a lot of scenarios, they're pretty annoying to wear. Yeah pain in the butt. Um

521
00:50:11,240 --> 00:50:17,160
Amariah says my show fewer shorts button works for like a week and then they come back. Well, it's probably because the sun came out

522
00:50:25,320 --> 00:50:27,320
Nice

523
00:50:29,000 --> 00:50:33,240
I thought there was a follow-up to follow these Yeah, it

524
00:50:33,240 --> 00:50:39,560
That was a that was a fairly weak ding. I think well listen We need like a ding damper so you can get like the first like bing, but then it doesn't

525
00:50:39,960 --> 00:50:47,000
No No, that would be yeah, like that satisfying gross. Yeah gross. No, that's what that deserves

526
00:50:49,960 --> 00:50:51,960
Great fun Linus

527
00:50:56,840 --> 00:51:03,640
What's the opposite of Pavlov Ah, so now that we've trained you to have a dopamine response to the good ding

528
00:51:04,840 --> 00:51:09,640
What's the opposite of dopamine? Probably like man slaughter

529
00:51:14,040 --> 00:51:20,360
I don't know. I'm not sure All right, I'm not gonna unpack that one speaking of youtube

530
00:51:21,400 --> 00:51:28,440
YouTube CEO Neil Mohan published a blog post on january 21st about new things coming in 2026

531
00:51:29,000 --> 00:51:35,000
Some of the notable ones include shorts feed changes to allow image posts

532
00:51:35,640 --> 00:51:42,920
YouTube tv will be getting multi view allowing users to watch up to four different youtube tv feeds at once

533
00:51:43,320 --> 00:51:48,840
That's right. My friends you can have quadruple the brain rot on your tv. Amazing

534
00:51:49,000 --> 00:51:55,240
There will be updates to parental controls and they will be simplifying parental controls, which I am

535
00:51:55,880 --> 00:52:01,080
Very much in support of there will be more monetization options for vertical streaming

536
00:52:01,400 --> 00:52:04,040
Which actually probably makes a ton of sense right now

537
00:52:04,680 --> 00:52:09,080
Updates to youtube shopping including having purchases baked into the app

538
00:52:09,720 --> 00:52:18,120
Instead of redirecting to another store That'll be really good for people who are interested in selling things on the platform and really bad for people with impulse control problems

539
00:52:18,280 --> 00:52:23,400
Yeah We've got tools for creators to swap out

540
00:52:23,880 --> 00:52:30,200
They're baked in ads and then resell and replace those ad spots at later dates

541
00:52:30,600 --> 00:52:37,480
Which is going to be an absolute goldmine for like very evergreen content creators

542
00:52:37,800 --> 00:52:41,400
I don't know that it'll be as useful for us, but if you make videos that are

543
00:52:42,200 --> 00:52:51,320
About the war of 1812 for instance very good. Then absolutely nothing would prevent you like uh, oh actually a perfect example of this would be um

544
00:52:51,880 --> 00:52:56,600
Oh Man, what's his name? He does the the queue oversimplified

545
00:52:57,000 --> 00:53:01,480
It's a perfect example of someone who could benefit from this immensely because he does those

546
00:53:02,040 --> 00:53:05,400
Like uh, like limited edition merch drops in his videos

547
00:53:05,560 --> 00:53:11,720
So if he could go back and replace his entire back catalog with whatever his current merch drop is

548
00:53:14,680 --> 00:53:20,120
Wow Uh, that could be that could be pretty uh, that could be very powerful

549
00:53:20,840 --> 00:53:27,960
Um for creators like that. Uh, what else we got some ai transparency labeling to help users identify when videos are made with ai

550
00:53:28,040 --> 00:53:35,240
Assuming they can even tell um Combats to ai slot didn't get into much detail there. I like the idea. Hopefully it executes well

551
00:53:35,320 --> 00:53:40,040
They also gave some stats for youtube, uh 200 billion views every day on shorts alone

552
00:53:40,200 --> 00:53:45,640
I really wonder how they calculate views on shorts. Yep, according to a 2025 kantar survey

553
00:53:46,040 --> 00:53:52,360
93 percent of 18 to 27 year old us viewers agree youtube helps you learn new skills

554
00:53:53,640 --> 00:53:58,760
I wonder what the other seven percent are probably not shorts as much. Maybe they've never heard of youtube

555
00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:03,320
Uh 79 percent of us teachers are using youtube to teach students

556
00:54:04,040 --> 00:54:09,000
100 billion dollars was paid out to creators artists and media companies in the last four years

557
00:54:09,720 --> 00:54:16,680
That is a truly astronomical number That's a lot. Uh, and then in 2024 in the us youtube says they contributed

558
00:54:17,480 --> 00:54:20,040
55 billion to gdp and supported over

559
00:54:21,320 --> 00:54:23,320
490,000 full-time jobs

560
00:54:24,600 --> 00:54:29,400
That's wild Almost half a million full-time

561
00:54:30,200 --> 00:54:35,560
Maybe not creators right because there's a lot more full-time jobs than just me like here at LTT

562
00:54:36,200 --> 00:54:42,280
um But like half a million full-time jobs. I could see that for sure. Yeah

563
00:54:42,440 --> 00:54:45,720
I guess but like I just never really thought about it that way

564
00:54:47,320 --> 00:54:51,400
It's interesting creator economy, man I wonder how they calculated that but

565
00:54:51,400 --> 00:54:58,680
I'm not too Stunned by the number egg nog in april says. Yeah, I don't believe half a million jobs. I mean, why not? I kind of do

566
00:54:58,840 --> 00:55:02,200
I know so many creators that have enormous

567
00:55:02,760 --> 00:55:10,360
teams Oh, and when I say enormous, I don't mean like a thousand people, but I'm talking like like 10 or 20

568
00:55:10,680 --> 00:55:15,720
And there's the amount of like so many two to three people youtube teams is like endless

569
00:55:16,360 --> 00:55:21,320
huge Like it used to be Not that long ago

570
00:55:21,320 --> 00:55:27,960
Back in my day man yells at cloud back in my day that you could literally take all the youtubers with a million subscribers

571
00:55:28,040 --> 00:55:33,400
And put them on stage at once and give them giant youtube play button plaques. That was a thing

572
00:55:34,360 --> 00:55:38,760
Whereas now Yeah, like how many channels are there with a million subscribers?

573
00:55:39,640 --> 00:55:42,120
How many youtube channels have a million?

574
00:55:43,400 --> 00:55:47,400
Subscribers Quite a few

575
00:55:47,400 --> 00:55:50,680
You also don't need a million subs to hire people and make a team

576
00:55:50,920 --> 00:55:58,760
Especially in modern youtube I would argue where there are certain like crazy niches where you can be super successful with 20 000 views of video

577
00:55:59,800 --> 00:56:05,320
Um, it's just an audience that like supports really heavily or monetizes really heavily

578
00:56:05,320 --> 00:56:09,320
Like they'll buy the things that you're talking about a lot and you get big affiliate revenue or whatever else

579
00:56:11,560 --> 00:56:13,560
Uh, okay

580
00:56:19,720 --> 00:56:22,920
See I don't know the ai overview estimates

581
00:56:23,640 --> 00:56:30,440
around 69 000 channels nice as of mid 2025, but I haven't actually found

582
00:56:31,400 --> 00:56:38,120
Awesome creator academy says 69 182 as of when uh in 2025. Okay

583
00:56:38,840 --> 00:56:43,320
So Out of date It's 2026 now

584
00:56:43,320 --> 00:56:47,640
The point is a lot Now obviously not all of those are in the us

585
00:56:47,720 --> 00:56:53,160
But as we already talked about a lot of those channels probably are

586
00:56:53,800 --> 00:56:59,000
Either directly or indirectly responsible for the full-time employment of a lot more than one people

587
00:56:59,320 --> 00:57:04,840
One people one person like LMG. For instance directly employs like 100

588
00:57:05,480 --> 00:57:10,760
Plus, I think we're at sitting at around 120 right now. Is that sound about right? Yes. Um ish

589
00:57:11,480 --> 00:57:19,000
But there are also People who are indirectly full-time employed who don't necessarily work for us like for instance, um our

590
00:57:19,720 --> 00:57:26,840
Our third-party logistics company is one of the reasons why I said it to I wonder how they're counting it because we're over half of their business

591
00:57:27,240 --> 00:57:29,640
So by that logic half their headcount is

592
00:57:30,600 --> 00:57:35,080
Is do you count some amount of employment for all the services that support us?

593
00:57:35,880 --> 00:57:38,200
Absolutely internet. I would think so. Oh

594
00:57:39,800 --> 00:57:44,360
Uh, that's not going to be a whole person. That's getting pretty fuzzy, but it's part of a person

595
00:57:45,320 --> 00:57:53,160
Yeah, here it says youtube supported over 490 000 full-time jobs. So it's very I think it has to be more direct employment

596
00:57:53,240 --> 00:57:59,320
Unclear exactly what they would mean, but then you're counting the shipping thing. Yeah, which I think is I think is fair

597
00:58:00,680 --> 00:58:03,480
Where is the line though? Yeah, not sure

598
00:58:04,840 --> 00:58:11,400
Not sure, uh, I think the biggest one for me was actually that um for the parental controls

599
00:58:11,880 --> 00:58:18,760
I can now I have the granularity to turn off shorts or limit shorts directly

600
00:58:19,240 --> 00:58:23,000
for my dependence Which is

601
00:58:23,000 --> 00:58:27,320
That's actually huge. Thank you because I don't mind my kids using youtube at all

602
00:58:27,880 --> 00:58:32,440
I do mind a lot them doom scrolling shorts shorts is a different thing

603
00:58:33,080 --> 00:58:35,080
The different beasts entirely. Yeah

604
00:58:36,520 --> 00:58:41,640
I feel like I I do I do feel a little bit like every generation goes through this

605
00:58:42,520 --> 00:58:47,880
Books were once the devil and and an idle pastime that rotted your brain

606
00:58:48,360 --> 00:58:54,040
And then it was radio And then it was tv and then it was video games

607
00:58:54,600 --> 00:58:59,480
And then and then and then and then and then and so, you know, I'm sitting here going well

608
00:58:59,560 --> 00:59:02,680
You know, I grew up with youtube and I turned out okay

609
00:59:03,240 --> 00:59:06,200
But these shorts these shorts are bad. They'll rot your brain except

610
00:59:06,920 --> 00:59:09,960
I mean they do seem to kind of do that. No, actually though

611
00:59:10,680 --> 00:59:15,400
Uh, yeah Anyways, I I really like the

612
00:59:16,040 --> 00:59:20,040
learning new skills And the viewers agree that youtube helps. Sorry

613
00:59:20,600 --> 00:59:26,120
Teachers are using 79% of teachers using youtube to teach students. I was kind of wondering

614
00:59:27,800 --> 00:59:30,520
Time for business meeting on wansho time

615
00:59:31,560 --> 00:59:35,560
There was a thread on the the reddits recently of

616
00:59:36,440 --> 00:59:41,160
About the vimeo thing No, um a Techquickie episode

617
00:59:41,880 --> 00:59:44,440
Oh being used in a classroom. Yes

618
00:59:45,400 --> 00:59:49,400
I lost it. It's somewhere in here, but that you know that we'll get a little

619
00:59:50,200 --> 00:59:53,880
Reddit post about that every once in a while everyone's been a consistent thing for a long time

620
00:59:54,120 --> 00:59:56,600
Have you ever thought of like working?

621
00:59:57,640 --> 00:59:58,760
with

622
01:00:02,680 --> 01:00:10,680
Content like for classrooms. Oh interesting. That's not where I thought you were going. Um, so youtube actually has features where educational

623
01:00:11,400 --> 01:00:19,880
Solutions can license your content for use in classroom. Yeah, um, we've always opted out just because uh, I don't I don't care

624
01:00:20,040 --> 01:00:23,480
Whatever dude, just use it. Yeah, that's always kind of been my stance

625
01:00:25,160 --> 01:00:32,120
As for like like supplemental materials that are specifically designed in partnership with

626
01:00:32,760 --> 01:00:40,120
with some kind of Um educational institution. I think that's super cool. I'd be there's a neat idea

627
01:00:40,360 --> 01:00:42,600
Yeah, and like obviously, you know, if

628
01:00:43,720 --> 01:00:47,720
The ideal for us would be that it's stuff that we could still upload

629
01:00:48,120 --> 01:00:54,120
Yeah on youtube. So I wouldn't want to go into much more depth than something like a Techquickie already would

630
01:00:54,360 --> 01:00:59,320
Yep, um, but if it was meant to be like, hey, here's the new unit. We're working on today

631
01:01:00,040 --> 01:01:02,760
Here's a fun fast-paced engaging

632
01:01:03,480 --> 01:01:08,200
Top level primer of what we're going to dig into over the next two to three weeks of our coursework

633
01:01:08,280 --> 01:01:12,680
I'd be I'd be super interested in that. Yeah, for sure. Awesome to me. Yeah, that'd be great

634
01:01:13,560 --> 01:01:19,480
You should make a comp to your rival just to troll them. You can certify yourself. No, I wouldn't need to do that

635
01:01:19,560 --> 01:01:22,520
That's that there it is. Uh, I mean look

636
01:01:24,200 --> 01:01:26,200
You've got the paper. It's good enough

637
01:01:30,600 --> 01:01:33,240
Last time there was like a lot of spiders on the back of that just a heads up

638
01:01:33,960 --> 01:01:39,800
Oh Seems like you're probably fine. There's a dead one. Um

639
01:01:40,840 --> 01:01:45,960
Listen, they can take away the actual certification online

640
01:01:46,360 --> 01:01:49,880
But they can never take away this piece of paper that I printed for myself

641
01:01:53,880 --> 01:01:59,240
You should you should pause the video and freeze frame that and then zoom in and replace the name

642
01:01:59,480 --> 01:02:04,520
Linus Sebastian with your name and print your own Nice, you should not we would never endorse such a thing

643
01:02:05,480 --> 01:02:09,080
Um What stands out to you from the youtube blog?

644
01:02:10,120 --> 01:02:15,320
I mean, I didn't even see it in here, but that thing you told me about shorts and being able to control your kid's feeds is amazing

645
01:02:15,720 --> 01:02:18,360
Yeah, um, that's awesome. I'm

646
01:02:19,560 --> 01:02:23,320
I'm actually surprised that 79 of us teachers are using youtube to teach students

647
01:02:23,880 --> 01:02:27,400
Really like I know we get those posts every once in a while. I didn't think it was going to be effectively

648
01:02:27,800 --> 01:02:32,840
80 percent of teachers. I mean so many teachers are like friggin millennials now like they're

649
01:02:33,560 --> 01:02:36,840
I get it. It makes sense. I'm just surprised that it's that high

650
01:02:37,320 --> 01:02:42,200
Um, and that that number is why I thought of the like man like maybe we should support this more

651
01:02:42,760 --> 01:02:48,680
Um, I don't know if that's a desire from anybody, but I mean it does seem like our videos get used

652
01:02:48,920 --> 01:02:51,960
I have usually seen our videos getting used in

653
01:02:52,520 --> 01:02:59,000
Universities that's usually the the what people are talking about when it when it comes up or technical colleges or whatever

654
01:02:59,480 --> 01:03:05,960
um So I don't know if maybe maybe we'd need to aim differently to show up in in like high schools or whatever

655
01:03:06,040 --> 01:03:13,720
But stay the path says yeah, I have a bunch of friends who are teachers And I'd be very surprised if they never showed their kids youtube videos. Yeah, okay cool makes sense. Yeah

656
01:03:14,120 --> 01:03:21,160
I mean I I used it as a military instructor for airplanes says bordaga sweet. I mean if somebody else did the work

657
01:03:21,960 --> 01:03:25,080
Of no, yeah, I get it. I just like I don't remember

658
01:03:25,880 --> 01:03:29,720
You know, they'd roll out bill nye every once in a while, but it was it was like pretty rare

659
01:03:30,440 --> 01:03:32,440
That we watched things in class

660
01:03:33,720 --> 01:03:40,040
Yeah, I guess that's true, isn't it So like is that more common now? I would assume so probably more ubiquitous now

661
01:03:40,360 --> 01:03:45,640
Our school only had like a handful of like av cards tv. This is my point. Yeah

662
01:03:45,960 --> 01:03:49,080
Yeah, so like I am I I'm just super out of touch with high schools

663
01:03:49,080 --> 01:03:53,560
I guess because they probably I'm assuming do they just all have projectors now or like what's the

664
01:03:54,520 --> 01:03:58,360
I think so. Actually, I think so. I think my kids school all the classrooms have projectors in them

665
01:03:58,440 --> 01:04:02,600
So our schools like a huge client for projectors like when the oh, oh, yeah

666
01:04:02,920 --> 01:04:10,120
Oh, yeah, like Ben Q. Ben Q. My school had none lives or dies on like universities how many school projectors they sell

667
01:04:10,200 --> 01:04:18,680
like big big university And and uh, I was gonna say yeah, like I was I was helping out in one of my kids classrooms

668
01:04:18,680 --> 01:04:23,160
They had like a parent helper day This was a few years ago. My kids are all a little bit older now

669
01:04:23,240 --> 01:04:27,000
But it used to be when they're younger you could go in and you could like help run

670
01:04:27,320 --> 01:04:31,400
Like a unit that they were doing or whatever. It was a nice way to just kind of see your kids in their

671
01:04:32,040 --> 01:04:36,200
environment at school see how they're doing Um, see which are their friends

672
01:04:36,440 --> 01:04:38,920
Probably we like shouldn't invite over, you know

673
01:04:39,800 --> 01:04:44,360
the rabble rousers anyway, like

674
01:04:44,600 --> 01:04:48,200
So I happened to be there when they did the morning announcements and it was like a video

675
01:04:49,080 --> 01:04:53,560
Oh, yeah, so like the principal was like on video in the classroom and I was like, oh, I guess that's pretty smart

676
01:04:53,560 --> 01:04:58,120
Was it a live stream? I don't know. I actually don't know. I didn't think about it. Interesting

677
01:04:58,600 --> 01:05:07,720
But like they definitely all have like You know projectors in their classrooms. Sure. Yeah, and like if you think about it like yeah, why not? Yeah. No, it makes sense

678
01:05:07,800 --> 01:05:12,520
I just I just yeah projectors like back to high school since high school projectors like a few hundred bucks a grand

679
01:05:12,600 --> 01:05:17,800
You get a throw a little screen on there and like some networking like it. Yeah, there's it's nothing that

680
01:05:18,280 --> 01:05:23,560
I mean, you know a person who worked in in school it for quite a few years

681
01:05:23,880 --> 01:05:27,960
It's nothing that guy wouldn't have been able to figure out. I mean he probably did

682
01:05:28,200 --> 01:05:35,160
I just mostly talked to him about like server stuff. So we never got into like what are the like classroom configurations that you have

683
01:05:35,640 --> 01:05:38,680
um But yeah, it's really interesting. I

684
01:05:39,320 --> 01:05:43,000
The the whole story is very long So I probably won't go through the whole thing

685
01:05:43,080 --> 01:05:48,200
But I was recently on a Trip that ended up a little haphazard and I ended up in a location

686
01:05:48,200 --> 01:05:51,240
I did not expect at a very very very small town and I had a

687
01:05:51,320 --> 01:05:55,480
Are you not going to talk about are you not going to talk about the town visit? I was going to ask you about it later on this show

688
01:05:55,560 --> 01:05:59,080
It's just a long story. Yeah, sure fine. Maybe later. Maybe later

689
01:05:59,480 --> 01:06:02,760
Um, but something that I did think of was the internet there was so

690
01:06:04,040 --> 01:06:08,200
So bad That I kind of had this thought like I mean

691
01:06:09,000 --> 01:06:13,560
There was none at the airport. There was no cell signal. There was no whatever at the airport

692
01:06:13,720 --> 01:06:18,840
Solid to drive into town to like get signal solid. I had this thought of like it would be kind of fun to do a

693
01:06:19,080 --> 01:06:22,280
I don't know if it's a series or a one-off or whatever, but you're doing tech house

694
01:06:23,000 --> 01:06:29,400
Could there be like tech tiny town where it's like you are just trying to push this Linus town thing we set up

695
01:06:29,960 --> 01:06:35,640
Oh, I didn't think that's brilliant. No, it's not brilliant. That's a great idea. Great idea. Linus. That's fantastic

696
01:06:36,200 --> 01:06:41,000
This is why you're the mayor of Linus town that makes sense

697
01:06:41,080 --> 01:06:48,200
He's so smart. He's so intelligent That's that might be one of the best ideas you've ever had our greatest dear leader

698
01:06:48,520 --> 01:06:51,320
You could totally just buy a tiny town getting cookies

699
01:06:52,760 --> 01:06:59,240
What a phenomenal idea always one after the other look at them go walking off the stage not running this time

700
01:07:05,640 --> 01:07:07,640
I

701
01:07:18,520 --> 01:07:21,240
Okay, so my my thought was basically like, you know

702
01:07:21,880 --> 01:07:27,000
We could probably partner with somebody we could partner with ubiquity whatever but because ubiquity has those point-to-point dishes

703
01:07:27,080 --> 01:07:30,360
Right, so like could could we make this a little bit better while I was there?

704
01:07:30,760 --> 01:07:37,720
I speed tested which probably brought the whole thing down, but I speed tested and I got 2.4 megs down and it just

705
01:07:38,680 --> 01:07:45,640
Crit failed on the upload Nothing. I didn't give me a report speed test just gave me the download. I've never seen that before

706
01:07:46,200 --> 01:07:48,200
um, and it also had 900

707
01:07:49,320 --> 01:07:53,080
latency to the closest server a second

708
01:07:53,080 --> 01:07:58,600
Yeah, but not only that it felt like it was like on an analog on off switch that was constantly running

709
01:07:58,840 --> 01:08:04,280
Because if I sat there with a web page open on my phone and just refreshed repeatedly it would

710
01:08:04,920 --> 01:08:11,560
load and then Like fail web page not found and then load and just rotate that constantly

711
01:08:11,800 --> 01:08:17,640
Interesting and apps like basically didn't function because it wouldn't have like the continual connection that an app would expect

712
01:08:18,040 --> 01:08:23,640
it was Really bad like I don't think I've experienced internet that bad in

713
01:08:24,600 --> 01:08:30,120
um decades So I was just thinking like is there something we can do to like

714
01:08:30,920 --> 01:08:35,960
Help basically, um, and is this interesting and like to me. It's kind of interesting

715
01:08:36,040 --> 01:08:39,560
I'm I'm trying to get into some home labby stuff recently and whatnot

716
01:08:39,960 --> 01:08:43,560
Um, that's why I thought ubiquity because I was on their website looking at different things that they had

717
01:08:43,640 --> 01:08:46,920
I saw their point-to-point things like really good and affordable point-to-points

718
01:08:47,000 --> 01:08:51,960
They do and I don't have a use case for it, but I find those things fascinating. Um, they're super cool

719
01:08:52,040 --> 01:08:56,680
We have one on the ceiling here still going to I think we might have gotten rid of it

720
01:08:57,080 --> 01:09:01,960
It might be a backup link now um, uh, that makes but for the price

721
01:09:03,240 --> 01:09:07,240
That's like crazy cheap for what you can do with it. Yeah, and this I mean this isn't uh

722
01:09:08,120 --> 01:09:13,480
This isn't a ubiquity add. They also are a sponsor. So are they sponsored right now? I have no idea

723
01:09:13,960 --> 01:09:18,760
Who knows this has nothing to do with that, but they just they have some cool stuff

724
01:09:19,560 --> 01:09:24,600
And I thought it could be an interesting experience to to do some network connection stuff for future linestown

725
01:09:25,880 --> 01:09:27,880
You're still talking about this

726
01:09:29,000 --> 01:09:31,000
I tried to time it for your return

727
01:09:32,360 --> 01:09:34,600
And I think it worked nicely done

728
01:09:36,680 --> 01:09:44,360
Geez Because of you I had to get two packs of cookies two packs of cookies to deal with my stress

729
01:09:44,520 --> 01:09:46,520
Oh

730
01:09:48,360 --> 01:09:52,920
Part of the park benefits of linestown is if you're feeling particularly stressed out you get free cookies

731
01:09:52,920 --> 01:09:57,800
Yes, you get two packs of two too. You had a hard day. Yeah, you have two packs of cookies

732
01:09:57,880 --> 01:10:03,480
Yeah, these will make you feel better very temporarily automatically deducted from your monthly linest bucks

733
01:10:06,840 --> 01:10:09,080
All right, it's double your daily portion of food

734
01:10:12,200 --> 01:10:16,360
All we need to say about The youtube announcement

735
01:10:16,440 --> 01:10:21,560
Uh Then that was topic too. So what are we supposed to be doing now? Well, we've got 10 minutes

736
01:10:22,120 --> 01:10:26,200
We could do merge messages now. We could do another topic that was quick. We've got lots today

737
01:10:27,080 --> 01:10:29,560
Uh, sure. Why don't we do a quick topic? Let's do a quick topic. Yeah

738
01:10:30,280 --> 01:10:34,600
Uh, what's a quick one? Oh, uh, yeah, okay. So I have a proposal

739
01:10:35,480 --> 01:10:39,480
Microsoft needs to have their new coke moment. Oh

740
01:10:40,440 --> 01:10:44,600
Sorry, I read this before the show and got really excited because I like can't agree more they

741
01:10:45,880 --> 01:10:51,000
Think about it Coke was having trouble with coke. Okay

742
01:10:51,560 --> 01:10:56,280
So they come up with new coke. Everyone hates it. They bring back coca-cola classic

743
01:10:56,680 --> 01:11:01,080
Everybody loves it sales go hockey stick. Okay, right brilliant

744
01:11:02,440 --> 01:11:08,200
Microsoft has this kind of problem with their their helper monkeys their assistants

745
01:11:08,680 --> 01:11:15,240
You know back when clippy was their current helper. I mean even I think I think the

746
01:11:16,040 --> 01:11:19,720
Which one came first clippy or the dog the search dog?

747
01:11:20,280 --> 01:11:23,480
I genuinely don't know, but I thought it was search dog was

748
01:11:24,200 --> 01:11:28,520
That was xp and then but I thought clippy was office xp clippy was also

749
01:11:28,600 --> 01:11:33,080
I think they were like that was their characters era clippy was apparently word 97

750
01:11:34,040 --> 01:11:36,040
Damn

751
01:11:37,960 --> 01:11:40,280
Okay, well whatever the point is

752
01:11:41,800 --> 01:11:49,640
At the time At the time everyone freaking hated clippy. Oh, yeah, right everyone hated the dog, right?

753
01:11:51,320 --> 01:11:54,280
Until they gave us cortana and then all of a sudden

754
01:11:55,080 --> 01:11:59,000
I felt nostalgic for clippy You know, I was like, oh the dog

755
01:11:59,080 --> 01:12:02,760
I remember the dog that dog that never found anything that was so cute, right?

756
01:12:02,840 --> 01:12:08,520
The flashlight would go like this and you oh no, the dog was after the flashlight. The point is wow, the dog was first

757
01:12:08,760 --> 01:12:17,160
1995 it didn't get better They gave us they gave us cortana. We hated cortana until they gave us co-pilot and now I'm sitting there going

758
01:12:17,720 --> 01:12:22,760
How much would I love to just have cortana back? Okay, but but seriously, do you think back positively?

759
01:12:23,720 --> 01:12:30,680
Nostalgically for cortana. I think compared to co-pilot. Yes. I think it's all relative easier to get out of the way

760
01:12:30,840 --> 01:12:34,520
I think microsoft just needs to completely new coke this

761
01:12:35,400 --> 01:12:38,200
Throw away the co-pilot branding entirely

762
01:12:39,240 --> 01:12:42,520
And make their big ai push around clippy

763
01:12:44,120 --> 01:12:49,960
I would unironically want to try clippy. I would too and this is why when I read this I was like, no way

764
01:12:50,040 --> 01:12:57,000
AI pin called clippy you clippy it to your shirt if it was just a big paper clip that would actually go so hard

765
01:12:57,480 --> 01:12:59,480
That would be amazing

766
01:13:03,480 --> 01:13:05,480
All right, take out the stream

767
01:13:06,920 --> 01:13:10,680
That's wild. We should make an ai pin. It's not like it's hard

768
01:13:12,120 --> 01:13:15,640
Actually though There it's all just

769
01:13:15,640 --> 01:13:19,480
Do we know or do we know hot glue look if we want to baby

770

01:15:13,480 --> 01:15:16,280
Oh, damn. All right. Oh, damn

788
01:15:19,000 --> 01:15:22,520
Dan, what are we doing again? I think we're at the whole top of the message. That was the whole topic. Yeah

789
01:15:22,760 --> 01:15:24,760
Okay, let's do this

790
01:15:26,760 --> 01:15:33,640
Oh, okay, so, uh, where's that? At the very top. Okay. We have no main topics today when you hide things from me at the very top

791
01:15:33,720 --> 01:15:37,880
I can't find them down. They're supposed to be in the middle. I didn't write the topic. We talked about this

792
01:15:38,760 --> 01:15:41,880
Is you Why are you so mean?

793
01:15:41,880 --> 01:15:43,880

01:15:46,280 --> 01:15:50,280

slash cleanup wizard So with these photos

808
01:17:02,680 --> 01:17:08,680
The the ones where they actually like try to be a real wizard like oh my god, that's incredible

809
01:17:09,400 --> 01:17:15,800
That's so good, man. Like he he's the one who made our um, who made the trophies for the last grap yard worth

810
01:17:19,240 --> 01:17:22,040
That's so good. Oh, there's another one

811
01:17:23,320 --> 01:17:25,720
That's amazing. Sorry. I really like these

812
01:17:26,600 --> 01:17:31,160
Oh, man, that's great. Now I need to hide my camera so I can buy a tie dye one before they

813
01:17:31,640 --> 01:17:39,080
Really cool design. I believe this one was either entirely or predominantly a lisa innovation who

814
01:17:39,720 --> 01:17:47,640
technically works for the fashion team not the design team, but she obviously has a design background and um

815
01:17:48,760 --> 01:17:52,920
This basically I I think I asked for like a couple small tweaks

816
01:17:53,320 --> 01:17:56,280
But pretty much she showed it to me and I was like

817
01:17:57,240 --> 01:18:00,760
Amazing print it. I love it. It's so cool

818
01:18:01,160 --> 01:18:04,040
Old old microsoft of mascots that were awesome

819
01:18:04,600 --> 01:18:08,680
Everyone loved the wizard. Yeah, everyone loved the wizard. Yeah, even

820
01:18:09,320 --> 01:18:17,480
When it was current and this is like cool gritty reimagined wizard and like I love that it looks like a band shirt or something

821
01:18:17,640 --> 01:18:22,920
I thought okay Dan was walking in in front of me and he was wearing the hoodie

822
01:18:23,000 --> 01:18:26,840
I'm pretty sure and I saw it on the back and was like, huh like

823
01:18:27,560 --> 01:18:33,400
You know Never heard of that. That's a cool concert hoodie. You know when did Dan start dressing will?

824
01:18:37,000 --> 01:18:42,040
It just and then and then I think he told me it's like, oh, yeah, it's like, you know a reference that I was like

825
01:18:42,520 --> 01:18:45,480
Oh, obviously because yeah, I thought it was a band shirt

826
01:18:46,200 --> 01:18:49,560
crazy Now I need to continue trying to buy one. Thank you

827
01:18:50,280 --> 01:18:55,720
before we move on A quick reminder about the LTT true spec cables drop

828
01:18:56,120 --> 01:19:03,000
They're going to be available in usb a to c and USB-C to c with plenty of speed and length options for a cleaner setup

829
01:19:03,720 --> 01:19:06,520
You can check out our sign up page at LMG.gg

830
01:19:06,760 --> 01:19:14,200
Slash cable sign up to get more information and features and to get notified as soon as they go live

831
01:19:14,280 --> 01:19:18,760
I would not probably screw around if you want to get exactly the length that you want

832
01:19:19,960 --> 01:19:22,920
Because we ordered somewhat conservatively on the first round

833
01:19:23,400 --> 01:19:32,520
And I can't guarantee that all sizes will stay in stock unless unless we nailed it and we got the mix exactly right and we

834
01:19:33,960 --> 01:19:38,680
Are you leaving a merch message? I

835
01:19:39,000 --> 01:19:43,000
What the call the call is coming from inside the house like I'm a customer

836
01:19:43,000 --> 01:19:47,800
He's within his right leave a merch message. I mean you're entitled. Yeah, you're entitled to leave a merch

837
01:19:47,800 --> 01:19:51,000
But you could I mean don't sorry don't let me stop you go ahead and leave a merch message

838
01:19:51,000 --> 01:19:53,640
Well, now you know I'm sending it so now I need to send something different

839
01:19:57,160 --> 01:20:03,480
I mean you're not subtle Everyone can tell when you're on your phone on the wind show. I'm not trying to I'm not trying to creep here

840
01:20:04,200 --> 01:20:11,000
It's that big You think I don't know what our own store looks like. I didn't know you could actually see my screen though

841
01:20:11,880 --> 01:20:15,400
Linus, what if somebody else wanted to send a merch message? What did they do?

842
01:20:15,640 --> 01:20:23,880
Right, okay All they would have to do is head over to lttstore.com where they could pick up some great merchandise like last week's

843
01:20:24,360 --> 01:20:29,400
Crash out shirt, which I actually love how how cute how cute is the little sad face here?

844
01:20:29,800 --> 01:20:34,760
Or you could pick up the Clean up wizard collection

845
01:20:34,840 --> 01:20:41,960
Um, just drop something in your cart How about this one? Let's go with this add to cart and then in your cart

846
01:20:41,960 --> 01:20:48,840
You will see this checkbox right here I would like my order to appear as a merch message on the LTT stream

847
01:20:49,160 --> 01:20:53,000
You can do it anonymously. You can change the color however you like

848
01:20:53,320 --> 01:20:56,600
See that one was purple the one that just faded away in the top up there

849
01:20:56,840 --> 01:21:00,680
And then you can type a merch message that merch message will go to producer Dan

850
01:21:01,560 --> 01:21:06,520
Who will throw it down there if it's just like a shout out or something or reply to it himself if

851
01:21:06,920 --> 01:21:11,240
He knows the answer or it's one we've seen a hundred times or he might curate it

852
01:21:11,560 --> 01:21:16,040
That is to say he will put it in a queue for me and luke to address later on the show

853
01:21:16,360 --> 01:21:20,280
We like merch messages because they're a way for you to throw money at your screen

854
01:21:20,520 --> 01:21:24,840
Like you would with any other streamer except instead of just throwing money at your screen and getting

855
01:21:25,720 --> 01:21:31,720
I don't know what Noticing in return you also get high quality products

856
01:21:32,520 --> 01:21:35,880
by the way, I've been using the m word and

857
01:21:36,440 --> 01:21:40,760
We had a meeting this week. Yeah the m word. We had we had a

858
01:21:41,880 --> 01:21:45,160
We're not going to call it merch meeting anymore. We had a product meeting this week

859
01:21:45,480 --> 01:21:51,720
We are officially banning the word merch because it's not merch. What are these things called that? Check out chats

860
01:21:51,800 --> 01:21:55,480
We talked about this months ago. Yeah, we're going to call it something else. Let's call them checkout chats

861
01:21:55,640 --> 01:22:02,760
So it has the same abbreviation as ccleaner I like it. Okay, we could call them. It's good. Um

01:22:03,880 --> 01:22:06,120
Okay, what what would be m m help us out here guys?

Money makers says mickabane Well conrad does get final say and he says rambi dans, so

865
01:22:23,240 --> 01:22:27,080
We're going with that. No, we're not calling it that. Um

866
01:22:29,080 --> 01:22:35,720
Mercantile messages, thank you for that market manipulators

867
01:22:37,720 --> 01:22:43,800
Money messages, um stream shouts is kind of cute says when bingo quantified mandatory meetings

868
01:22:46,040 --> 01:22:50,680
Money makers, I think we could go with checkout chats send send your cocks

01:22:52,920 --> 01:22:58,200
Yeah, uh elemental exposure. Thank you for that. Perfect. Okay, check. Let's go with checkout chats

870
01:22:58,360 --> 01:23:01,400
So nice. Yeah, well, it might take uh might take a week or two

871
01:23:01,400 --> 01:23:06,520
But let's get the let's get the rebrand in here and let's do uh, let's call them checkout chats from now on

872
01:23:06,760 --> 01:23:11,320
Because we got to stop calling this stuff merch. It's not merch. It's uh, we do we do product development

873
01:23:11,800 --> 01:23:17,320
like they were I think this this might have actually been lisa as well. Um

874
01:23:18,280 --> 01:23:23,800
But she was uh telling an anecdote and someone was getting like a tour through there and they were like

875
01:23:25,720 --> 01:23:28,920
So Was like all this stuff you guys do

876
01:23:29,480 --> 01:23:34,200
Would you consider this more like a like a fashion department? And she's like

877
01:23:35,480 --> 01:23:37,480
Oh

878
01:23:38,520 --> 01:23:45,080
Like wow you guys do like so much testing on like the like the materials and finishes and everything like you get every it's not

879
01:23:46,040 --> 01:23:49,560
Yeah So we've just we've got to just stop calling it that

880
01:23:50,520 --> 01:23:56,280
Yeah We've got to respect ourselves enough to call it what it is merch really does just mean merchandise though

881
01:23:56,600 --> 01:24:00,760
I know but it but it has that connotation of just being

882
01:24:01,400 --> 01:24:07,800
Cheaply reproduced aliexpress stuff with a silk silk screen logo on it. You know all languages cyclical though

883
01:24:09,080 --> 01:24:13,560
People just get like tired of a word so they decide it's bad and then you just make a new one

884
01:24:14,200 --> 01:24:16,200
That does the same thing

885
01:24:21,240 --> 01:24:26,760
Loot messages as long as the words don't start with r. I won't get confused

886
01:24:31,640 --> 01:24:33,640
Calm down

887
01:24:34,920 --> 01:24:36,920
I don't know if his mic was on but I could

888
01:24:39,000 --> 01:24:48,440
Giggling through gritted teeth Uh, I don't want some merch messages to read sorry check out chat. Damn it. Um, show me show me your cock

891
01:24:58,280 --> 01:25:03,480
Oh, yes, um, I'm wearing them today. I'm not wearing them today. I'm wearing old prototypes today

893
01:25:16,200 --> 01:25:18,200
Every week

894
01:25:21,480 --> 01:25:23,480
Curated cocks

895
01:25:27,480 --> 01:25:32,200
I mean at least Dan's best cocks of 2026

896
01:25:36,840 --> 01:25:38,840
Oh

897
01:25:44,360 --> 01:25:54,120
Man Sorry, you keep going. Um, sock up. Sorry. Yeah sock update. Did you work me on the cock? I'm super happy

898
01:25:54,760 --> 01:26:02,280
I'm with how the the latest samples are going. They're really durable. They're really breathable. They're

899
01:26:02,920 --> 01:26:08,280
Not the softest socks in the world. They're they're like a marina wool blend. We found that the

900
01:26:09,400 --> 01:26:13,000
Percentage of marina wool was not what the manufacturer told us that it was

901
01:26:13,480 --> 01:26:19,480
Which is why we do all this materials testing and stuff that makes us. Yes. Uh, like a company with a fashion team

902
01:26:20,040 --> 01:26:24,280
Um, not just a merch, you know off outfit. Um

903
01:26:25,240 --> 01:26:28,120
And so that that was super cool Tatiana full credit for that

904
01:26:28,920 --> 01:26:34,520
And uh, what we decided was that we're gonna stick with the composition that it is because it's great

905
01:26:34,920 --> 01:26:42,120
It's very wearable. Uh, but that just is going to affect the way that we advertise it. I had a meeting with, um

906
01:26:43,640 --> 01:26:47,800
Dave Adam the head of customer care, uh, Tatiana

907
01:26:48,360 --> 01:26:54,680
So the material specialist and then and Bridget who's head of the fashion department not not merch department fashion department

908
01:26:55,160 --> 01:27:00,920
And um or had a fashion design. I can't remember her exact title, but basically the honcho and

909
01:27:02,040 --> 01:27:06,840
We that's the new title. Yeah The honcho the hon. You know

910
01:27:07,400 --> 01:27:11,880
Bridget and I are pretty chill. I think if I was like, yeah, we're printing you business cards that say honcho on them

911
01:27:11,880 --> 01:27:15,880
I think she might actually be down I'm not a hundred percent sure on that though, so I

912
01:27:16,760 --> 01:27:21,160
Riley's she's the kind of person who you definitely get approval before you do something

913
01:27:21,880 --> 01:27:30,360
But if you do the wrong thing She'll tell you in the nicest possible way that you have royally fucked it up

914
01:27:34,200 --> 01:27:40,360
So I'll let her decide what her job title is Riley's badge for cea said the hon. I think it was honorable

915
01:27:40,920 --> 01:27:44,360
That was amazing. I know I'm so charades was doctor

916
01:27:45,320 --> 01:27:57,240
Because of course it was anyway The point is I had a long meeting not long short meeting with those folks and I think the socks are going to be

917
01:27:58,120 --> 01:28:04,520
The third fourth fourth entry in the trust me bro limited lifetime guarantee family

918
01:28:05,240 --> 01:28:09,800
To be clear everything on the store. We stand behind it. Um extremely

919
01:28:10,360 --> 01:28:15,880
You know strongly, but this is one where we're looking at it going. This is going to be a very premium sock

920
01:28:16,040 --> 01:28:23,960
I think people are going to have For the price that it is very high expectations for how long they should last everything is within reason

921
01:28:24,600 --> 01:28:28,760
Just like I've discussed before with the how a limited lifetime warranty works

922
01:28:28,760 --> 01:28:32,360
Whether it's the backpack or the screwdriver or the socks or the cables or whatever else

923
01:28:33,160 --> 01:28:35,560
There's going to be language in the warranty that

924
01:28:36,600 --> 01:28:39,000
Limits it that's what a limited lifetime

925
01:28:40,600 --> 01:28:44,680
So, you know, it's not going to cover things like flagrant abuse of the product

926
01:28:44,760 --> 01:28:51,480
Um When it'll it'll have wording in there that basically gives us the right to weasel out of whatever it is

927
01:28:51,480 --> 01:28:55,880
We don't want to do which is exactly sort of my point on the whole warranty thing in the first place

928
01:28:56,760 --> 01:29:01,480
But what we're going to be doing through calling it that is sending a very strong signal

929
01:29:01,480 --> 01:29:04,440
This is a product that we expect to last for an extremely long time

930
01:29:04,840 --> 01:29:09,720
If it does not get abused and that you will be extremely happy with the value that you'll get out of it

931
01:29:09,720 --> 01:29:17,160
And that we are going to stand behind very strongly. I'm extremely excited for this product. Oh, that's pretty good. Sorry

932
01:29:17,480 --> 01:29:23,400
What do you look at? Check out messages comms I like it being comms. Hmm comms is pretty good

933
01:29:26,040 --> 01:29:28,200
I don't know if we can go long term with cocks

934
01:29:29,880 --> 01:29:35,080
I mean speak for yourself Only if you use the it's just a fling for me

935
01:29:40,520 --> 01:29:43,160
Comms is probably better

936
01:29:43,960 --> 01:29:47,720
Or you could just say check out jets. You could you could have the long one rather than the short one

937
01:29:48,520 --> 01:29:57,320
But there's no way you didn't do that on purpose Yeah, it was on purpose, but okay. It's pretty pretty bit of a stretch honestly. I like it check out jets

938
01:29:57,560 --> 01:30:02,760
Uh, let's have another one for today. They're check out jets. Oh, they sure are

939
01:30:02,760 --> 01:30:04,760
Uh

940
01:30:07,240 --> 01:30:11,560
Let's just do the one at the top. How about that? Hey, wonderful tech bros

941
01:30:11,800 --> 01:30:17,080
I know in the past it's been said that RAM slots on gpus wasn't gonna happen

942
01:30:17,240 --> 01:30:25,000
But with the RAM Pocalypse here now. Does that change your answer sell cheap gpus with bring your own RAM?

943
01:30:25,800 --> 01:30:31,480
No, it doesn't change the answer unfortunately because the reasons that they are doing things the way they're doing them

944
01:30:32,440 --> 01:30:37,720
Are economical or sorry are technical reasons not economical reasons

945
01:30:38,440 --> 01:30:43,160
In order to get that memory running at the kind of speeds that they need it running at

946
01:30:44,040 --> 01:30:51,560
The traces need to be extremely short and every time you add trace length or you add an interface

947
01:30:51,640 --> 01:30:54,680
so so a a pin and a spring or

948
01:30:55,560 --> 01:30:57,880
anything like that you are you are

949
01:30:58,600 --> 01:31:05,560
Contributing to signal loss at that will ultimately result in not being able to run it as high of a speed

950
01:31:05,960 --> 01:31:09,240
That's why the faster the GPU

951
01:31:10,520 --> 01:31:14,520
The more important it is that we bring the memory closer and closer to it

952
01:31:14,600 --> 01:31:22,680
So you look at something like hbm where they're bringing the memory right onto the package versus a typical GPU where your memory

953
01:31:23,320 --> 01:31:31,400
um Dies are laid out around the GPU and you notice they're never far away like they would literally rather

954
01:31:32,040 --> 01:31:38,120
Have it double-sided on the pcb, especially look at like um some some higher capacity cards

955
01:31:38,360 --> 01:31:42,600
Where they'll have memory chips laid out around the GPU and you flip it over and there's memory chips all over the back

956
01:31:45,400 --> 01:31:50,120
Excuse me, um It's the same reason that

957
01:31:50,680 --> 01:31:57,400
That AMD requires strix halo to have the memory soldered to the board. So that's their Ryzen ai

958
01:31:59,080 --> 01:32:07,640
ai max 300 but whatever the actual brand rise an ai max an ai max plus if i recall correctly is the the branding for it

959
01:32:08,440 --> 01:32:16,680
But framework took some flak for making the framework desktop with strix halo and having soldered memory on the board

960
01:32:17,240 --> 01:32:25,400
But the cold hard truth is the reason that that memory is soldered is because to feed that high performance integrated GPU

961
01:32:26,040 --> 01:32:32,280
It has to be You could put socketed dims in it, but you'd be giving up so much performance

962
01:32:32,760 --> 01:32:36,040
That you're basically defeating the purpose of the product in the first place

963
01:32:36,600 --> 01:32:38,600
socketed GPU's were a thing

964
01:32:39,640 --> 01:32:42,760
but It just got to the point where

965
01:32:43,160 --> 01:32:48,120
It just wasn't worth it. It didn't make any sense and the vast majority of the time

966
01:32:49,240 --> 01:32:56,360
It was pretty clear Pretty much how much memory was needed for that GPU performance in

967
01:32:56,920 --> 01:33:00,760
The kinds of applications that it would be running. There are certainly exceptions

968
01:33:00,840 --> 01:33:07,000
We're just having way more could allow you to run a way larger ai model for instance now today

969
01:33:07,320 --> 01:33:15,640
But from a gaming standpoint NVIDIA and AMD Intel they have a pretty good idea

970
01:33:16,040 --> 01:33:21,480
How much memory that GPU could really benefit from before you're getting into games that need way more memory

971
01:33:21,560 --> 01:33:29,000
But would also just need way more GPU horsepower I also think they have a pretty good idea of how they can push people into higher price bands through manipulating that

972
01:33:29,720 --> 01:33:34,840
Absolutely, but that's a separate conversation. Not a wrong conversation

973
01:33:35,320 --> 01:33:38,840
totally valid point but is not

974
01:33:38,840 --> 01:33:42,280
The reason why we don't have socketed GPU's

975
01:33:43,000 --> 01:33:45,000
at this time

976
01:33:51,240 --> 01:33:57,000
Was that two merge messages sure was okay slew by time flies and you're having fun sure did you want to pick one?

977
01:33:57,800 --> 01:34:00,920
um yes

978
01:34:00,920 --> 01:34:08,360
I do I do want to pick one sony gives up 51 of its bravia tv business to china's tcl

979
01:34:09,320 --> 01:34:16,760
In a new strategic partnership very very odd. This is done with the aim of leveraging sony's high quality picture and audio technology

980
01:34:18,040 --> 01:34:25,320
Which includes some class leading image processing? Sorry, I didn't wince to that statement. I wince because it's like interesting that is going in that direction then

981
01:34:25,640 --> 01:34:32,120
um Which includes some class leading image processing and tcl's and then this is crossed out

982
01:34:32,840 --> 01:34:37,320
Um advanced display technology global scale advantages. Oh, okay. I see

983
01:34:38,120 --> 01:34:41,480
industrial footprint end-to-end cost efficiency and vertical supply chain strength

984
01:34:42,680 --> 01:34:47,720
Also known as cheap manufacturing In a joint press release sony said the joint venture will

985
01:34:48,840 --> 01:34:55,560
Will operate globally handling full process from product development to design to manufacturing sales logistics customer service everything

986
01:34:55,800 --> 01:34:59,400
Sony has partnered with numerous other companies to manufacture their TVs in the past

987
01:34:59,560 --> 01:35:05,960
Um, maybe not to this degree. I'm not necessarily sure on that one. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It is to this degree. Yeah. Yeah, okay

988
01:35:06,600 --> 01:35:10,280
They gave up 51 of their business. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, but like they they they have

989
01:35:11,400 --> 01:35:14,920
Had other factories oem manufacture their TVs. That's not yeah

990
01:35:15,320 --> 01:35:19,640
What I was talking about was giving up 51 of their business. Uh, because doing that repeatedly is

991
01:35:21,080 --> 01:35:25,320
confusing Sony has partnered with

992
01:35:26,040 --> 01:35:31,800
They partnered with tcl's own china star opto electronics technology csot

993
01:35:32,520 --> 01:35:40,360
Um, at least for now the bravia navel continued to exist But in this new arrangement tcl will take full control of the manufacturing process of sony's tv's

994
01:35:40,680 --> 01:35:43,560
And likely their soundbar speakers avr's and turntables

995
01:35:43,960 --> 01:35:51,800
The aim is to have definitive binding agreements signed by the end of march 2026 and for the new company to commence its operations

996
01:35:52,040 --> 01:35:54,360
in april of 20 27

997
01:35:56,280 --> 01:36:02,840
Dang does this new surprise you personally? Yes. Yeah big time. Definitely

998
01:36:03,640 --> 01:36:12,680
This was a major surprise to me because Sony's tv business has has been seemed pretty strong in dire straits at times

999
01:36:13,640 --> 01:36:18,200
But not right now, right? But it didn't seem like it was right now. Now admittedly like it

1000
01:36:18,920 --> 01:36:23,160
admittedly Every time i've gone out shopping for a tv

1001
01:36:23,720 --> 01:36:30,280
In the last little while whether it was you asking me for a recommendation or whether it was my grandparents needing a new tv

1002
01:36:30,360 --> 01:36:32,360
And me just like going and buying one

1003
01:36:34,120 --> 01:36:38,680
Sony hasn't been in my consideration at all

1004
01:36:38,680 --> 01:36:43,880
So sony has been in kind of a weird place for me where they have a lot of mindshare with me

1005
01:36:44,440 --> 01:36:50,040
I I see it as a high quality product But i'm not willing to open up my wallet

1006
01:36:50,600 --> 01:36:54,600
to pay the premium for it but

1007
01:36:54,600 --> 01:36:58,280
Sony's been in that position for the better part of my adult life

1008
01:36:58,760 --> 01:37:01,080
So I guess what i'm just trying to understand is

1009
01:37:02,440 --> 01:37:06,600
What changed is it maybe just is it just even further

1010
01:37:07,400 --> 01:37:14,760
tighter Pressure to to consolidate like it's I think that the tv game for a long time has been raced to the bottom with prices

1011
01:37:14,840 --> 01:37:20,200
Well, yeah, and they just probably can't compete that way anymore You look at what we saw in that high sense factory tour

1012
01:37:20,600 --> 01:37:27,800
Where they were talking about how important it was that they had this new automated glue dispensing machine for adhering the thing to the thing

1013
01:37:27,880 --> 01:37:32,360
That saved some percentage of glue and i'm like was it expensive glue? They're like no

1014
01:37:33,160 --> 01:37:38,760
And i'm like well, then why does it matter if you save like a few milliliters of glue and they're like well

1015
01:37:39,560 --> 01:37:43,000
because We make a lot of tv's and i'm like, oh, yeah

1016
01:37:43,160 --> 01:37:46,440
That makes sense. Yeah, like they're they are squeezing

1017
01:37:48,120 --> 01:37:51,720
Every penny that they can save out of these things

1018
01:37:52,600 --> 01:37:58,760
In order to keep tv's getting bigger and prices staying similar or in many cases

1019
01:37:59,240 --> 01:38:02,200
Going down here's a question. Have you found that?

1020
01:38:02,840 --> 01:38:07,800
I'm not much of a tv guy. Have you found that tv failure rates have been going up?

1021
01:38:08,520 --> 01:38:14,680
I haven't experienced it personally. I've heard people anecdotally talk about it. Yeah, okay, but

1022
01:38:15,320 --> 01:38:20,920
Like I don't I can't remember the last time I heard anyone say that their tv died of like natural causes

1023
01:38:22,280 --> 01:38:25,320
Like actually so that doesn't seem to be happening because I I have a

1024
01:38:27,080 --> 01:38:33,080
My my fridge at home is having a problem and just because I everything is in my place apparently right now

1025
01:38:33,400 --> 01:38:41,720
Um, we had an appliance guy come in and he was basically just like okay Yeah, I mean I can fix this but realistically this thing's old enough. You should just buy a new one to that

1026
01:38:41,800 --> 01:38:47,080
I was like, huh? My parents have had two fridges that I can remember my entire life

1027
01:38:47,480 --> 01:38:50,440
This fridges does not seem that old. What are we talking about?

1028
01:38:50,840 --> 01:38:55,000
Um, and I did a bunch of research also known as I looked up threads on reddit

1029
01:38:55,320 --> 01:39:00,120
Um, and this is like a thing now. Oh, yeah people are like, oh, yeah fridges last like five ten years now

1030
01:39:00,680 --> 01:39:06,600
Ten years on the high end five on the like average and I was like what wild it's a big box of cold

1031
01:39:07,400 --> 01:39:09,400
Now there are there are tv

1032
01:39:10,920 --> 01:39:20,440
Longevity issues So for instance ratings did that really great investigation into edgelit tv's finding that especially if they were on for very extended periods of time

1033
01:39:20,920 --> 01:39:29,240
At high backlight power What was happening was it was like melting and discoloring the diffusion layer behind the lcd screen

1034
01:39:29,720 --> 01:39:34,680
and That was like a widespread issue with budget tv's for instance

1035
01:39:34,760 --> 01:39:40,040
But what I was going to point out was that you and a lot of people in your social circle are probably

1036
01:39:40,600 --> 01:39:43,560
More middle class. Yeah, and therefore

1037
01:39:45,080 --> 01:39:49,080
Have not the the cheapest tv that makes and so

1038
01:39:50,120 --> 01:39:56,440
It seems to me that you still can buy a quality product that lasts for a while a lot of my friends that aren't necessarily

1039
01:39:57,080 --> 01:40:00,920
um A lot of my friends

1040
01:40:00,920 --> 01:40:03,560
The two that i've been in their living room and seen what they have

1041
01:40:04,440 --> 01:40:10,200
Have not opted to go buy a cheap tv from the store. They've opted to

1042
01:40:11,000 --> 01:40:16,440
get used stuff Um, so they have higher quality things that might be slightly older

1043
01:40:17,000 --> 01:40:20,440
um But like and they let someone else pay the initial

1044
01:40:21,080 --> 01:40:24,120
Depreciation cost which on a tv because they're so cheap

1045
01:40:25,080 --> 01:40:30,040
It seems to be like you got that crazy tv for what was 100 bucks or something crazy for scraphead wars

1046
01:40:30,280 --> 01:40:35,160
No, it was more than that I don't remember what it was, but the the deal was crazy. Whatever. I think it was four

1047
01:40:35,320 --> 01:40:40,600
I want to say 400 canadian dollars and it came with a free soundbar or 600 dollars and it came with a free soundbar

1048
01:40:40,680 --> 01:40:43,240
Whatever it was for the quality of tv that you got. It was fine

1049
01:40:44,040 --> 01:40:51,560
fantastic totally acceptable Our scapid wars tv was 550 with a hundred dollar free soundbar, but it was worth way more than thanks bank rats

1050
01:40:52,280 --> 01:40:55,000
So like the use market for tv seems pretty good

1051
01:40:55,560 --> 01:41:01,000
I think you'd really we bought that one new though as a one. Oh, wow, which puts pressure on the use market as well

1052
01:41:01,080 --> 01:41:06,200
When new tv is just goodness. Yeah. Yeah, we bought it from like open box warehouse, but it wasn't open box

1053
01:41:07,800 --> 01:41:09,800
I know right crazy

1054
01:41:11,800 --> 01:41:16,680
I was going to say was if you're going to buy a tv use check for bernand, but um eddie coltrick says tcl

1055
01:41:16,680 --> 01:41:19,640
Is probably one of the very cheapest tv brands available in the uk

1056
01:41:19,720 --> 01:41:24,040
It's weird to see them taking on what I would consider as a luxury tv brands

1057
01:41:24,600 --> 01:41:27,640
especially sony bravia pro line and

1058
01:41:28,280 --> 01:41:30,280
This is one of those things that I think

1059
01:41:31,640 --> 01:41:36,040
I think i've been guilty of many times in the past as well this perception

1060
01:41:37,240 --> 01:41:43,160
That chinese brands or chinese manufacturing or or or low end brands

1061
01:41:44,040 --> 01:41:49,160
can't Make something better a lot of the time. It's that they choose

1062
01:41:49,640 --> 01:41:52,760
Yeah to make like a budget crappy one. Yeah

1063
01:41:53,240 --> 01:41:59,320
um Sometimes it's because they can't make something better, but a company like tcl like I was

1064
01:42:00,200 --> 01:42:09,000
I was blown away When I first got that 115 inch tv like two years ago or whenever it was and I was like this is not only the biggest tv

1065
01:42:09,080 --> 01:42:12,040
I've ever seen. This is one of the best tv's I've ever seen. I was not

1066
01:42:12,600 --> 01:42:18,120
Expecting that and it has still held it spot in my theater room to this day in spite of

1067
01:42:18,520 --> 01:42:22,280
Heating up competition in the ultra-large tv segment. Yeah, which is

1068
01:42:23,000 --> 01:42:26,520
Crazy kind of wild right? Yeah um

1069
01:42:26,520 --> 01:42:32,600
And and like going back even further Remember how we used to go to ces in the early days

1070
01:42:33,160 --> 01:42:38,440
And hyacinths always had the booth right next to Intel right at the entrance of the central hall

1071
01:42:39,240 --> 01:42:44,360
And I'd be like who the f*** are these guys like I know who Intel is every year for a while

1072
01:42:44,520 --> 01:42:47,400
But who the f*** is hyacinths? Why does the why does the

1073
01:42:48,840 --> 01:42:54,200
Perspective back then Relax. Yeah, like junk tv company have this like massive booth

1074
01:42:54,280 --> 01:43:00,520
I didn't even know who they were at all the first time I saw them because my first ces was like 17 years ago now or something

1075
01:43:00,520 --> 01:43:03,880
Like that. I literally didn't know who they were. I had to look at other like and it was like

1076
01:43:03,960 --> 01:43:09,320
Oh, it's like a weird chinese tv brand that literally doesn't exist in north america at all

1077
01:43:09,640 --> 01:43:16,280
What are they even doing here? And now they're battling it out with tcl another brand that I wouldn't have heard of at all at the time

1078
01:43:16,760 --> 01:43:21,480
For number one number two if I recall correctly is samsung is samsung still up there?

1079
01:43:22,440 --> 01:43:31,320
top tv brands Brands us. Is it hyacinths and tcl now? Are you measuring it by sales? Yeah, would be the volume of sales or or like

1080
01:43:32,120 --> 01:43:34,120
Total dollars

1081
01:43:36,120 --> 01:43:38,120
No, I don't want best

1082
01:43:39,880 --> 01:43:44,360
Yeah, top selling tv brands from accio accio statistics

1083
01:43:48,840 --> 01:43:55,560
So Average star rating last month sales volume hyacinths tcl sony

1084
01:43:55,800 --> 01:44:03,400
That's a cheap sony. So I guess that makes sense samsung at algae visio samsung samsung sam. So oh, we're into

1085
01:44:03,640 --> 01:44:08,440
What are these? I don't know how reliable this is last month sales volume. There's no way. What is this?

1086
01:44:09,800 --> 01:44:18,760
Okay, you know what? I don't know. I don't know if I'm going to be able to find this But the point is they absolutely have a very strong presence in the u.s. Market. We can say that with certainty

1087
01:44:20,440 --> 01:44:27,560
and uh I guess where I yeah where I was going with this is that there's nothing about tcl's

1088
01:44:28,520 --> 01:44:32,200
budget low-end tv's and them not being very good

1089
01:44:32,760 --> 01:44:36,360
That means that tcl doesn't have the manufacturing expertise

1090
01:44:37,080 --> 01:44:40,840
And and facilities to make a high-end tv

1091
01:44:41,640 --> 01:44:48,040
And that's how a lot of these brands ultimately make their way it to having a retail presence is their

1092
01:44:48,520 --> 01:44:54,440
oemming for Much more recognized bigger brands

1093
01:44:54,920 --> 01:45:01,880
And then they eventually kind of go. Sorry. What do I need these guys for and they start making their own stuff and their own stuff kind of

1094
01:45:02,600 --> 01:45:06,120
Sucks, um, not because they don't know how to build a better one in many cases

1095
01:45:06,520 --> 01:45:12,520
Sometimes that because they don't have the color science down or they don't have the good processing chips or whatever the case may be

1096
01:45:12,920 --> 01:45:15,800
and then other times it's because they just recognize that they're going to have to

1097
01:45:16,200 --> 01:45:21,480
Lucky gold star it and start at the the bottom of the quality and perception pile

1098
01:45:21,800 --> 01:45:28,200
And work their work their way up until their manufacturing volumes get higher and their expertise raises and then all of a sudden they're lg

1099
01:45:29,400 --> 01:45:32,520
And they're like a globally dominant electronics brand

1100
01:45:39,160 --> 01:45:44,200
As for how I feel about buying a sony tv at this point

1101
01:45:45,800 --> 01:45:51,000
There things are a little bit more confusing sony still owns 49 percent from my understanding

1102
01:45:51,720 --> 01:45:54,280
So sony is still going to be literally

1103
01:45:54,920 --> 01:45:58,280
Like very invested in bravia tv is being

1104
01:45:59,480 --> 01:46:01,480
Really good

1105
01:46:02,520 --> 01:46:06,360
But would I pay extra would I pay the bravia premium

1106
01:46:07,080 --> 01:46:11,720
For a tcl tv with sony's special sauce knowing that I already

1107
01:46:12,360 --> 01:46:16,280
Wasn't willing to do it and also that nothing's really changed

1108
01:46:16,760 --> 01:46:21,160
Because tcl may very well have been manufacturing them before anyway. Like the whole thing is

1109
01:46:21,880 --> 01:46:27,000
It's funky. It's changing. But is it changing most people aren't going to know that ever happened?

1110
01:46:27,640 --> 01:46:31,240
Oh, yeah Yeah, a hundred percent

1111
01:46:33,400 --> 01:46:37,560
I I think this might be somewhat Sony throwing in the manufacturing towel

1112
01:46:37,560 --> 01:46:43,080
I mean this is talked about a lot where people would be like, oh apple apple or coca-cola coca-cola is not a

1113
01:46:43,640 --> 01:46:47,400
Not a pop company. They're a logistics company whatever

1114
01:46:48,440 --> 01:46:51,480
Tcl I think if you're making that argument about other companies

1115
01:46:51,480 --> 01:46:55,000
I think you can make the argument of them being logistics and manufacturing and

1116
01:46:55,640 --> 01:47:01,560
Efficiency and stuff like that not necessarily a tv company. So if at a certain scale, it's it's very true though. Totally. No

1117
01:47:01,560 --> 01:47:05,720
I'm not I'm not even countering that I'm just saying that you might also I don't know enough about tcl

1118
01:47:05,720 --> 01:47:16,120
But you might also be able to apply that same logic to them And if so, sony might just be like look, we just want to step back and be like a really premium technology and rnd

1119
01:47:17,560 --> 01:47:23,160
group That can contribute that to really good tv's that these other people can pump out

1120
01:47:23,960 --> 01:47:28,680
Um, and if they're getting, you know, if they own 49 percent of of the joint venture

1121
01:47:29,160 --> 01:47:32,680
Big part of the pie, especially if they don't have to mess with the manufacturing side of things

1122
01:47:32,920 --> 01:47:38,840
Logistics and everything they leave that alone. Like it it might be fine. I don't know if I want to be too doomer about this

1123
01:47:39,400 --> 01:47:44,600
Um, as someone who has never purchased a sony tv. It doesn't necessarily matter that much to me

1124
01:47:44,840 --> 01:47:50,280
Yeah, sony was always like an aspirational brand for me even going back to like

1125
01:47:51,080 --> 01:47:57,400
Like portable cd players and stuff. It was like they're usually quite premium. Actually, hold on. No, I did have us

1126
01:47:57,480 --> 01:48:04,680
I did have a discman I remember I had a discman and panasonic was actually the the more premium brand around the time that I finally got one

1127
01:48:04,680 --> 01:48:11,240
I didn't get an early discman like I didn't get one when they were square I got one when sony had kind of started to have their

1128
01:48:11,880 --> 01:48:15,960
Their ability to compete in the premium space eroded when they had the rounded ones

1129
01:48:17,320 --> 01:48:23,480
The conversation we had on when about rechargeable batteries reminded me that I probably needed a few more

1130
01:48:23,960 --> 01:48:27,080
um, so I I treated myself to one of those like

1131
01:48:27,400 --> 01:48:32,280
The in a loop kits nice comes with the the charger and the adapters and stuff

1132
01:48:33,320 --> 01:48:38,600
It showed up. I'm pretty happy about it. I wonder which one I had this looks a little bit too squared off

1133
01:48:39,160 --> 01:48:44,360
To be mine, but this display looks extremely familiar

1134
01:48:45,160 --> 01:48:48,120
Uh, this this branding came way later

1135
01:48:48,440 --> 01:48:51,560
I don't think it's there anymore But I remember when there was a sony store in the willowbrook mall

1136
01:48:51,800 --> 01:49:00,760
They used to go through there all the time and never owned anything from sony, but I always thought it was cool This was absolutely directly competing with like panasonics. Uh, look at the time

1137
01:49:02,040 --> 01:49:07,160
These uh, these early, uh square ones were pretty pretty wild. Oh

1138
01:49:08,280 --> 01:49:13,960
I think this is the one. I think this is the one I had scroll downs like one row digital mega base

1139
01:49:14,680 --> 01:49:18,120
One row right? What yeah, what do you have to like orange and black one at the top of your screen?

1140
01:49:18,200 --> 01:49:21,400
Oh, yeah, this guy. I don't know if I've seen that before but that looks awesome

1141
01:49:21,640 --> 01:49:27,160
Is that relatively new like is that like going for like a retro vibe?

1142
01:49:27,720 --> 01:49:31,720
Can can this not be here? I'm trying to oh my god. It moved stop

1143
01:49:32,600 --> 01:49:36,920
2023 what wait no vintage vintage. Yeah, okay

1144
01:49:37,960 --> 01:49:44,840
It looks awesome late 1980s. That's pretty wild. That's pretty cool. That's quite a vibe going on there

1145
01:49:45,880 --> 01:49:50,520
The kids the kids whose parents loved them more had had panasonics though with their better anti skip

1146
01:49:52,120 --> 01:49:54,120
It's true

1147
01:49:55,640 --> 01:50:02,360
Did you have a panasonic? No My parents love me then your parents didn't love you that much. I don't know about that

1148
01:50:03,160 --> 01:50:05,160
That sounds fishy to me

1149
01:50:06,600 --> 01:50:13,160
I remember there was this one kid in my class who had uh, like I don't remember exactly what we had

1150
01:50:14,520 --> 01:50:17,320
But it was one kind of like the c Dan's parents loved him. Yeah

1151
01:50:17,800 --> 01:50:23,000
Well, I'm pretty sure they didn't buy it. It's probably a repair. Nice. We never bought anything electronic ever

1152
01:50:23,560 --> 01:50:30,840
It's like, oh, this is too much of two repair. We'll just fix it I remember this kid in my grade seven class showing off his panasonic shock wave

1153
01:50:31,320 --> 01:50:37,880
And basically his demo was that he would like give you his headphones and then he'd be like, okay

1154
01:50:37,880 --> 01:50:43,240
Now start shaking it and you'd like you'd shake it for as long as you could before you like got tired

1155
01:50:43,560 --> 01:50:48,440
And it would keep playing the whole time because I think it had 45 seconds of read ahead

1156
01:50:49,080 --> 01:50:56,280
So like you would you would have to like You'd have to shake it for almost a minute to get it to finally skip which was probably

1157
01:50:57,320 --> 01:51:05,000
Terrible for it Like probably awful for it. Totally but a fun demo, but it worked. Yeah. It was a cool demo. He didn't buy it

1158
01:51:05,560 --> 01:51:12,360
Yeah, what does he care? Yeah, I don't know how to feel about this

1159
01:51:13,560 --> 01:51:21,480
It might be fine It might not be fine. Cool. Good chat the 51% of its bravia tv business is also interesting because as far as my understanding goes

1160
01:51:21,480 --> 01:51:24,440
If you're a foreign company and you want to work in china, you just have to do that

1161
01:51:25,720 --> 01:51:29,880
And they said the new company will start operating. Oh, yeah, hold on a second. Um

1162
01:51:30,680 --> 01:51:36,600
definitive binding agreements will be signed by march of 2026 for the new company to commence

1163
01:51:36,760 --> 01:51:44,200
So they didn't just like sell part of their company They made a new company and in china if you're going to make a new company a chinese company has to have

1164
01:51:45,160 --> 01:51:52,200
Uh Majority they have to have at least 51 percent. So this is this I don't even think this was like a negotiation

1165
01:51:53,080 --> 01:51:58,760
They wanted to start a new company in china making tv's and they just had to partner with somebody and they partnered with tcl

1166
01:52:00,440 --> 01:52:02,760
Well, I wish them luck with that. This is part of

1167
01:52:03,640 --> 01:52:06,680
Do I want to talk about this because I don't know enough of the facts

1168
01:52:07,240 --> 01:52:14,360
Uh You might know some of it This is part of carney's plan as far as my understanding goes is 51 percent for

1169
01:52:15,080 --> 01:52:23,240
The canadian side He's trying to do effectively the same thing they're doing when uh when an outside foreign company wants to come to canada and do business

1170
01:52:23,880 --> 01:52:30,520
Especially like natural resource extraction. Yeah, it's been it's been a real problem for canada for a long time

1171
01:52:30,520 --> 01:52:35,800
That we have foreign entities coming in setting up shop um doing a bunch of mineral

1172
01:52:36,920 --> 01:52:40,040
and um natural resource extraction and then

1173
01:52:40,840 --> 01:52:43,560
Funneling the profits outside of canada where there's

1174
01:52:44,600 --> 01:52:51,320
Uh, no contribution to the canadian taxes historically been extremely permitted by canadian leadership

1175
01:52:52,120 --> 01:52:55,400
To the point where there's like almost certainly backroom deals happening

1176
01:52:55,960 --> 01:53:02,920
Um, but yeah, this is this is a discussion about car companies coming in from from china to canada potentially setting up

1177
01:53:03,560 --> 01:53:06,360
Manufacturing and whatnot and a canadian company would need to have

1178
01:53:07,080 --> 01:53:12,840
Majority ownership it's it's and that's that's not a you know, amazing new playbook idea

1179
01:53:13,080 --> 01:53:16,360
That's just hey china did that it worked really well for them. Let's do the same thing

1180
01:53:17,160 --> 01:53:23,340
so Yeah, I mean I I see nothing wrong with learning from our geopolitical rivals

1181
01:53:25,960 --> 01:53:30,600
Hardly rivals. Yeah. Yeah From the big dogs. I mean

1182
01:53:30,920 --> 01:53:35,080
Listen every pokemon game you meet your rival. I know i'm gonna crush him still a rival

1183
01:53:37,640 --> 01:53:42,040
Fair enough um

1184
01:53:42,120 --> 01:53:46,040
All right. Hey, what do you want to talk about next? How about

1185
01:53:46,040 --> 01:53:52,120
Tesla's robo taxi service actually goes full robo for the first time in austin

1186
01:53:52,840 --> 01:53:56,920
Since launching in the summer of this year, tesla's robo taxis have come with a safety monitor

1187
01:53:57,240 --> 01:53:59,880
In the car who can hit a kill switch in the event of an emergency

1188
01:54:00,280 --> 01:54:03,960
But now they've started offering unsupervised trips in austin texas

1189
01:54:04,200 --> 01:54:09,640
Nice, they apparently plan to phase out these safety monitors and move to a fully autonomous fleet over time

1190
01:54:09,720 --> 01:54:17,640
I mean, yes that that has been the plan for That's that's been coming in two years for quite some time now. It's coming in two years. Is it? Yeah

1191
01:54:18,120 --> 01:54:23,000
There have been approximately eight crashes in the five months since the service launched despite the safety monitors

1192
01:54:23,400 --> 01:54:29,000
Which depending on how you interpret that number is either really great or really not as great

1193
01:54:29,480 --> 01:54:33,080
um, I remember reading about some college student who

1194
01:54:33,640 --> 01:54:38,680
Created an app that pings their service constantly from a bunch of different locations to find out

1195
01:54:39,160 --> 01:54:43,800
How many robo taxis they actually have deployed and it turns out it's not very many

1196
01:54:44,520 --> 01:54:48,120
Um Which was pretty interesting

1197
01:54:48,440 --> 01:54:52,120
Good job. Anyway, the cyber taxi program still has a wait list for new riders

1198
01:54:52,200 --> 01:54:54,840
But the company is pushing to open in more cities soon

1199
01:54:56,120 --> 01:55:04,200
um There's a full play i'm asking for a source, but there's a full plane chatter that said this is not true and supervisory

1200
01:55:04,760 --> 01:55:10,920
Safety monitors are in following cars. That's hilarious. I don't have like a source for this or anything yet though

1201
01:55:11,080 --> 01:55:13,960
At what point do you think it would be easier

1202
01:55:15,080 --> 01:55:23,240
For tesla to just Do the things they say they're gonna do instead of pretend to do the things they say they're gonna do impossible

1203
01:55:24,280 --> 01:55:28,040
I'm just wondering impossible. I'm just wondering there'll be two uncharacteristic

1204
01:55:28,840 --> 01:55:34,760
Like what like would it be easier for them to actually make a useful humanoid robot? I can change him energy

1205
01:55:41,080 --> 01:55:43,080
I

1206
01:55:44,600 --> 01:55:47,560
Mean for a trillionaire it's worth at least trying luke

1207
01:55:50,040 --> 01:55:55,880
Yeah, this is a futurism dot dot com article says there's reportedly a car secretly

1208
01:55:56,280 --> 01:55:59,640
Following every tesla. So this is not like I don't know if this is real or not

1209
01:56:00,200 --> 01:56:06,280
um And it says when elon musk said there would no longer be a safety monitor in the car. He didn't mention the other car

1210
01:56:06,280 --> 01:56:09,480
I don't know. This doesn't necessarily mean anything. Maybe it's true. Maybe it's not the whole thing

1211
01:56:09,800 --> 01:56:17,320
Basically, doesn't necessarily mean anything. It's been pretty clear that this rollout has been a desperate attempt to prove

1212
01:56:17,400 --> 01:56:21,880
That they're actually definitely for real definitely actually gonna do self-driving this time

1213
01:56:22,520 --> 01:56:25,800
Meanwhile speaking of which are we transitioning to the same topic?

1214
01:56:26,280 --> 01:56:30,360
Yeah Tesla autopilot comes to an end in north america

1215
01:56:31,000 --> 01:56:34,360
Tesla has quietly removed autopilot from all vehicle purchases

1216
01:56:34,760 --> 01:56:41,560
Based on what elon has shared in the u.s. And canada replacing it with traffic aware cruise control or tac

1217
01:56:41,880 --> 01:56:49,080
TACC as the default driver assist feature the change follows tesla's recent announcement that full self-driving

1218
01:56:49,560 --> 01:56:52,920
Supervised is moving to a subscription first model

1219
01:56:53,560 --> 01:57:01,960
Existing owners won't lose autopilot But new buyers now have to pay for fsd or full self-driving if they want features like lane steering

1220
01:57:02,920 --> 01:57:08,200
Oh boy Tesla is offering a longer 90-day fsd trial

1221
01:57:08,840 --> 01:57:14,200
But after that, it's it's 99 bucks a month or a one-time purchase is available until

1222
01:57:14,760 --> 01:57:20,440
February 14th of 11,000 canadian dollars or 8,000 u.s. Dollars

1223
01:57:21,000 --> 01:57:29,240
Autopilot has been a core part of tesla's value proposition and removing it means even basic lane keeping is now pay walled really

1224
01:57:29,960 --> 01:57:36,360
Something many cheaper cars include by default yokes. Is there gonna be comma ai kits for tesla's?

1225
01:57:36,760 --> 01:57:39,640
That's a thing. Oh really? That's that's a thing. Yes

1226
01:57:40,600 --> 01:57:43,560
This is pretty wild to me because a huge part of the

1227
01:57:44,920 --> 01:57:49,240
The tesla package From my understanding has been the

1228
01:57:50,040 --> 01:57:52,680
the advanced software and it seems like this

1229
01:57:54,840 --> 01:57:58,040
This push to making it all a subscription

1230
01:57:59,400 --> 01:58:07,480
Is either Oh my god, it is it either means that they're actually ready this time and it's actually working and they're finally like

1231
01:58:08,360 --> 01:58:10,840
We can actually charge money for this because it's not just

1232
01:58:11,800 --> 01:58:16,040
alpha level software running on beta level hardware

1233
01:58:16,520 --> 01:58:19,640
um, I shouldn't say beta level hardware, but

1234
01:58:20,440 --> 01:58:27,080
It's not working as advertised. They've been they've been making claims about full self-driving for many many years

1235
01:58:27,880 --> 01:58:34,120
With respect to the capabilities and the timeline that have simply not turned out to be true that we can all agree on

1236
01:58:34,600 --> 01:58:37,640
um so either

1237
01:58:37,640 --> 01:58:41,560
Secretly they're like really ready this time and they're like, yeah, we can charge for it now

1238
01:58:42,440 --> 01:58:46,120
or This is a desperate attempt to phomo people

1239
01:58:46,680 --> 01:58:50,760
Into buying a bunch of full self-driving right now so that they can juice the numbers

1240
01:58:51,400 --> 01:58:56,600
For their next investor call and talk about how much people love full self-driving and how much they just bought of it

1241
01:58:56,600 --> 01:58:58,680
I I can't I can't tell

1242
01:58:59,720 --> 01:59:03,960
if if every move in this chess game

1243
01:59:05,240 --> 01:59:14,440
is um Just a way of staving off the ultimate crash of this stock for another quarter or if it's something else

1244
01:59:16,600 --> 01:59:18,600
Can't tell

1245
01:59:22,040 --> 01:59:28,520
Um, yeah, it's uh I don't know it's it's it's it's interesting because they I mean they've got something like I

1246
01:59:29,000 --> 01:59:34,040
I sat in a car with somebody who was driving a tesla and driving is like

1247
01:59:34,840 --> 01:59:41,080
in enormous air quotes because their their legs were crossed in their seat and they were like

1248
01:59:42,040 --> 01:59:48,120
clearly on their phone and uh showing me the the how they know the limits of

1249
01:59:48,600 --> 01:59:51,400
When autopilot will get them to like pay attention again

1250
01:59:51,800 --> 01:59:55,000
And how they like play within the limit so they just never have to do anything

1251
01:59:55,240 --> 02:00:00,440
And it drove them all the way from where we were to the next location with no intervention whatsoever

1252
02:00:01,640 --> 02:00:03,640
Yes

1253
02:00:04,680 --> 02:00:06,680
Yeah

1254
02:00:09,320 --> 02:00:16,680
I don't want it to come back to that person But there was other stuff going on as well like it was uh, it was honestly quite impressive

1255
02:00:17,640 --> 02:00:22,040
But then that's still not technically the advertised full self-driving

1256
02:00:22,200 --> 02:00:26,920
But the thing that gets me is the removing of of even things like lane keeping like that's

1257
02:00:27,560 --> 02:00:33,000
Crazy because clearly they have something like that was that was quite an impressive experience to be honest

1258
02:00:33,480 --> 02:00:40,760
um But to just rip it away it's like yikes, man to be clear everyone who has

1259
02:00:41,800 --> 02:00:46,600
autopilot which is Advanced cruise control with lane keep not without it. Um

1260
02:00:47,640 --> 02:00:51,320
Everyone who has it in their existing vehicle already will still have it

1261
02:00:53,000 --> 02:00:56,920
Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Okay. So they're not taking it away from anyone who does have it

1262
02:00:56,920 --> 02:01:00,600
They're just not providing it as an included option on vehicles

1263
02:01:01,240 --> 02:01:05,400
Going forward. So you'll have to pay a subscription to unlock it. Okay. Just like

1264
02:01:06,280 --> 02:01:10,200
You've had to pay to unlock the heated rear seats in the past for instance. Yeah

1265
02:01:10,200 --> 02:01:13,880
I mean that still kind of sucks them, but that's not as bad as I thought I I misinterpreted this

1266
02:01:13,880 --> 02:01:19,560
I thought they were taking it away And I was like what like if that was my experience which you know, maybe you shouldn't do that

1267
02:01:19,560 --> 02:01:23,000
But if that was my experience, um, I'd be kind of pissed

1268
02:01:23,640 --> 02:01:27,400
Going back to like a fully manual car. No, definitely not. Okay. Cool. Cool. Cool

1269
02:01:29,000 --> 02:01:31,000
Uh more Elon news

1270
02:01:33,480 --> 02:01:36,440
Yeah, let's do that instead that sounds like a better idea

1271
02:01:36,680 --> 02:01:38,680
Mm-hmm

1272
02:01:39,720 --> 02:01:44,040
Floatplane announcement this week on Floatplane. Do you want to bring it up? Sure

1273
02:01:44,520 --> 02:01:50,920
Is all about what Linus does when he's not in Linus youtuber mode? Oh, okay. Interesting

1274
02:01:51,960 --> 02:01:55,880
The tonight show behind the scenes vlog is finally out

1275
02:01:56,280 --> 02:02:01,240
showcasing what happened during the event including the parts where the laptop did in fact work

1276
02:02:01,800 --> 02:02:04,680
And a quick meeting with Jimmy Fallon himself

1277
02:02:05,160 --> 02:02:09,000
Um, yeah, Luke got to meet him too this time. Yeah, it was cool. Uh, here he is

1278
02:02:09,080 --> 02:02:11,800
He didn't chat with us for as long this time as he did the first time

1279
02:02:13,000 --> 02:02:16,360
It was pretty short, but he's a he's a busy man. I'm trying to find the laptop opening

1280
02:02:18,040 --> 02:02:23,400
Uh, you'll find it We didn't end up capturing how frustrated I was right after the segment

1281
02:02:23,960 --> 02:02:26,920
Uh, but you did get to see how depressed the room felt

1282
02:02:27,960 --> 02:02:31,480
So that's something. Oh, yeah, he must have been filming in there

1283
02:02:31,800 --> 02:02:34,440
I talked to sammy about it and he was like, yeah, I was

1284
02:02:35,000 --> 02:02:41,160
I I've never actually seen you like really upset before and I was like scared to film you and I was like sammy

1285
02:02:41,560 --> 02:02:46,040
You still have it You you well, I didn't say that

1286
02:02:46,680 --> 02:02:50,520
um I was like sammy

1287
02:02:51,080 --> 02:02:59,320
Even if I say don't The right thing to do is to film me. Yeah, because later. I don't use it. Yeah, we can always

1288
02:03:00,040 --> 02:03:03,080
I can always tell you later when I'm like not upset anymore

1289
02:03:03,960 --> 02:03:11,720
Let's not do that. Let's not upload it But we can never recapture a moment and the example I gave him was when wanik server

1290
02:03:12,280 --> 02:03:15,960
suffered that enormous data loss incident and I was like

1291
02:03:16,760 --> 02:03:20,520
Actually, like I I think I snapped it. I think it was taryn van hemert

1292
02:03:21,000 --> 02:03:23,720
Like put away the camera like like was like

1293
02:03:24,520 --> 02:03:30,040
Not okay in that moment And he basically was like I disagree. This is very important

1294
02:03:31,480 --> 02:03:34,440
In that way that he sometimes did

1295
02:03:36,520 --> 02:03:42,200
Which I didn't have time to argue with him about and ultimately I came to him afterward and I was like you were right

1296
02:03:42,360 --> 02:03:47,240
You were right to capture this moment because this was really great very real

1297
02:03:48,120 --> 02:03:51,080
content that I wasn't in the mood for

1298
02:03:51,720 --> 02:03:58,040
Making at the time, but I'm very grateful that we have captured now that I can look back on it after the fact

1299
02:03:58,840 --> 02:04:03,160
And so I basically I told sammy that story about how like even if I tell you know

1300
02:04:04,600 --> 02:04:09,320
The better thing to do is capture it. We can always not use it. We can always even delete it

1301
02:04:09,960 --> 02:04:11,960
If anything, I would take it a sign to maybe be

1302
02:04:13,320 --> 02:04:17,640
Less intrusive with the filming but keep filming. Yeah. Yeah, definitely. Yeah

1303
02:04:18,360 --> 02:04:23,960
Um Anyway, what else was I gonna say? We also had sammy following follow me around during my day at ces

1304
02:04:24,360 --> 02:04:27,800
To see what it looks like when I don't have 12 shoots at the show floor

1305
02:04:28,360 --> 02:04:34,280
This ranged from troubleshooting and inconsequential laptop all the way to some behind the scenes of us at the robot fight event

1306
02:04:34,680 --> 02:04:40,520
Also funny moment at 1919 to 1929. Okay. Okay

1307
02:04:41,960 --> 02:04:45,720
1919 oh hold on hold on hold on

1308
02:04:46,520 --> 02:04:49,720
Uh, okay audio Dan. Do we have audio?

1309
02:04:57,160 --> 02:04:59,160
I'm not gonna yuck your young

1310
02:05:06,600 --> 02:05:08,600
That's a fire quote

1311
02:05:12,040 --> 02:05:16,760
Oh my god Wow, that's a huge yikes. Um

1312
02:05:18,120 --> 02:05:20,120
If you

1313
02:05:21,160 --> 02:05:28,760
If you prefer riley though Riley and bjorn sat down to talk about the behind the scenes and some insight on how to make their fun

1314
02:05:29,160 --> 02:05:33,400
Creative sponsor spots. I saw that. I'm excited to I haven't watched it, but I saw the thumbnail

1315
02:05:33,400 --> 02:05:37,720
I'm excited to watch that stay tuned because next week we have a Floatplane exclusive product

1316
02:05:38,200 --> 02:05:44,360
Not clothing that is very cool. That's launching LMG dot gg slash fp

1317
02:05:45,000 --> 02:05:48,840
When go check it out Do you know about this?

1318
02:05:48,840 --> 02:05:53,320
I my brain just went to like cables. Nope. Okay

1319
02:05:54,200 --> 02:05:57,480
Oh, I love that you don't know about this. This is gonna be so much fun. It's gonna be a great surprise

1320
02:05:57,560 --> 02:06:03,560
I wonder I can't speculate though. I'm not gonna tell you nothing right now. Absolutely nothing stone cold poker face

1321
02:06:04,680 --> 02:06:06,680
Um, how do I

1322
02:06:08,680 --> 02:06:11,880
Okay, I can't no I can't

1323
02:06:14,360 --> 02:06:18,840
Yeah, I'm gonna try again. I'm gonna try again. Okay. You can't put it on me Dan. You can't put the camera on me

1324
02:06:18,920 --> 02:06:21,640
I saw I saw you do that. No, you can't. Okay

1325
02:06:25,160 --> 02:06:32,040
This is gonna do it again I'm actually really surprised you can't do this. Are you are you are you throwing for content?

1326
02:06:32,520 --> 02:06:34,920
But no, why would I do that because it's so easy

1327
02:06:35,880 --> 02:06:37,880
Fine, you do it

1328
02:06:41,400 --> 02:06:43,400
You're so smiling

1329
02:06:45,480 --> 02:06:47,960
Stoic when zoom in on him

1330
02:06:52,920 --> 02:06:57,560
I saw I saw twitch. I didn't laugh at you though. That's not fair

1331
02:07:00,920 --> 02:07:04,760
I did not laugh at you. I got I got I had a more difficult version

1332
02:07:05,320 --> 02:07:07,320
Sure

1333
02:07:09,160 --> 02:07:12,680
Uh It's actually a really great trick for uh

1334
02:07:13,320 --> 02:07:18,840
Photographing kids when you have uh, when you have a bunch of kids and like like they won't smile or whatever else

1335
02:07:18,840 --> 02:07:22,200
And you just try to fit the love of god. Can we just be serious? Yeah. Okay, everybody

1336
02:07:22,440 --> 02:07:32,200
Everybody make the most serious face. No I'm telling you you've got to be completely serious right now. That's not that's not serious enough. Hey, I'm warning you

1337
02:07:32,600 --> 02:07:35,800
They'll all crack up. I guarantee it every time super cool hack

1338
02:07:35,880 --> 02:07:41,480
I remember um, I was probably a teenager So I still had young siblings and a photographer

1339
02:07:42,200 --> 02:07:45,640
Pulled that move on us for like our family portrait that year or whatever

1340
02:07:46,040 --> 02:07:50,200
And I was like i'ma file that away because that's gonna be useful

1341
02:07:50,600 --> 02:07:53,960
I don't know why this made me think of this, but I saw somebody recently who fed

1342
02:07:54,440 --> 02:07:57,240
You know pills to their dog and they did so by

1343
02:07:57,880 --> 02:08:01,320
Accidentally dropping like a piece of meat off their plate

1344
02:08:02,200 --> 02:08:05,880
But it was the like it had the pill in it. I don't remember what it maybe it wasn't a piece of meat

1345
02:08:05,880 --> 02:08:09,480
But like something off their plate, but their dog is like super fast about getting it. Yeah

1346
02:08:10,520 --> 02:08:12,520
It's actually pretty smart. That's really smart

1347
02:08:14,600 --> 02:08:19,400
It was pretty good Okay

02:08:19,800 --> 02:08:26,760

wan All right, a couple more topics shall we?

1367
02:10:13,400 --> 02:10:18,840
Yeah, what do you want to talk about mr. Lafrendo, what do I want to talk about? What do you want to talk about?

1368
02:10:20,040 --> 02:10:24,440
Ubisoft Do you really want to talk about no to be honest?

1369
02:10:24,520 --> 02:10:30,280
But I think we should after announcing a sweeping company restructure that includes the closure of two

1370
02:10:31,400 --> 02:10:41,880
studios The delay of seven titles yikes and the cancellation of six more yikes including the prince of persia sands of time remake

1371
02:10:41,880 --> 02:10:47,560
No That was oh, I was uh, I love prince of persia sands of time that one

1372
02:10:48,920 --> 02:10:51,640
I mean, I wouldn't have given you bisoft money for a remake of it, but whatever

1373
02:10:52,200 --> 02:11:03,240
It was off lowered its financial year expectations by 330 million pounds euro euros now euro

1374
02:11:03,960 --> 02:11:09,160
It's singular fun fact really yep Why did they do that? I don't know because they're a bureau

1375
02:11:11,160 --> 02:11:13,660
Now a 1.5 billion euro

1376
02:11:14,600 --> 02:11:18,360
With an operating loss of around 1 billion euro

1377
02:11:19,160 --> 02:11:27,960
Shares dropped 34 in value on thursday an approximate 95 loss from five years ago and the lowest point in 14 years

1378
02:11:29,080 --> 02:11:34,760
How do you get to keep your job as ceo at that point? Well, you're the family that owns the company, I think

1379
02:11:35,640 --> 02:11:41,480
All right, so oh the same reason I I've kept my job. It's pretty good. You're not the ceo anymore though. That's true

1380
02:11:42,440 --> 02:11:44,440
Mm-hmm

1381
02:11:46,040 --> 02:11:48,760
That's uh, wow, that's a wow

1382
02:11:49,400 --> 02:11:53,320
Huh, how about that that decline doesn't exactly look like it's stopping either

1383
02:11:54,200 --> 02:12:00,360
Well, I mean, that's the thing about you know stocks is they can you know, they stock they can stonks or they can stonks

1384
02:12:00,920 --> 02:12:03,320
They can kind of they can upside down stonks. Yeah

1385
02:12:04,360 --> 02:12:08,280
Wow discussion question ubi soft ceo yves guimón

1386
02:12:08,920 --> 02:12:14,520
Is calling you right now and says i'll do anything you say to save this company. Please help me. What do you tell him to do?

1387
02:12:15,880 --> 02:12:20,200
Uh, he could try um

1388
02:12:20,200 --> 02:12:23,320
Oh man, what would I do to save it would be soft at this point?

1389
02:12:24,840 --> 02:12:28,440
I gotta say I don't know necessarily enough about their problems

1390
02:12:29,000 --> 02:12:32,920
Like obviously they have the problems with the product that they're delivering

1391
02:12:33,640 --> 02:12:38,840
But I don't know enough about their product I don't know enough about their problems internally because you can

1392
02:12:39,400 --> 02:12:45,000
You can have like a super toxic company that's hyper dysfunctional behind the scenes but manages to

1393
02:12:45,560 --> 02:12:49,960
To churn out good product even for like a very long time with that dysfunction

1394
02:12:50,520 --> 02:12:54,920
And you can have a company that is very harmonious behind the scene

1395
02:12:55,560 --> 02:12:59,720
Behind the scenes but has bad luck and and is not ultimately

1396
02:13:00,440 --> 02:13:08,440
Successful obviously there would be a correlation between companies that are operating harmoniously and are executing and are making money and succeeding

1397
02:13:08,520 --> 02:13:12,360
But it's not a guarantee. So I don't I just don't know enough

1398
02:13:13,160 --> 02:13:16,760
about How

1399
02:13:16,760 --> 02:13:21,960
I don't know enough about what's wrong with them like obviously i'm playing expedition 33 right now

1400
02:13:22,520 --> 02:13:29,240
And it seems like the kind of game that ubi soft could have made. Yeah, it really does externally like yeah

1401
02:13:29,800 --> 02:13:33,400
So much Like where where those where those guys from anyway

1402
02:13:34,680 --> 02:13:36,680
33 yeah, they're from france

1403
02:13:37,720 --> 02:13:41,560
Yes, I know from france. Uh, hold on team

1404
02:13:43,400 --> 02:13:47,960
But where's the uh Oh, no way

1405
02:13:47,960 --> 02:13:54,840
No way Okay wikipedia the ideas behind expedition 33 originated in 2019 with guillombrouche

1406
02:13:55,160 --> 02:13:59,800
An employee of ubi soft not long before the covet 19 pandemic began

1407
02:13:59,960 --> 02:14:05,640
I I can't I can't just keep taking all these w's from my videos that no one cares about on on flow plane

1408
02:14:06,520 --> 02:14:09,720
My my little series on gaming things. Have you watched any of them?

1409
02:14:10,600 --> 02:14:15,240
My whole point is that way back in the day with atari and stuff like atari's

1410
02:14:16,360 --> 02:14:22,520
Slow death was the thing that spawned companies like activision and my whole argument is we're going through that again right now

1411
02:14:22,840 --> 02:14:27,640
Yeah, and this is my example as to why is these types of things keep happening

1412
02:14:27,960 --> 02:14:34,360
This is an offshoot from ubi soft in bark studios the guys that made arc raiders another game of the year, but for multiplayer

1413
02:14:34,840 --> 02:14:38,040
Uh winner this year is an offshoot from

1414
02:14:38,600 --> 02:14:42,040
A dice right like all these companies that are releasing like

1415
02:14:42,760 --> 02:14:49,880
He's like new feeling companies that are releasing amazing games are very often people leaving these giant

1416
02:14:50,360 --> 02:14:56,840
No longer properly functioning companies of of effectively the past now right and making new

1417
02:14:57,720 --> 02:15:02,920
Uh, it's hyper successful often. It's basically what happened with zip-tie tuning

1418
02:15:03,800 --> 02:15:08,280
Oh my Oh my

1419
02:15:08,280 --> 02:15:13,320
Are you the activision of youtube? In relative years it might make sense

1420
02:15:16,440 --> 02:15:25,080
I think i'm still doing all right get owned We've got a fun collab coming with them by the way. I'm very excited. I shot it monday. Oh, that's cool. Yeah, that's sweet

1421
02:15:25,240 --> 02:15:27,880
Yeah, we uh, that's exciting. I think I think

1422
02:15:28,920 --> 02:15:34,440
I think this is uh, I think I think it's going to be a very exciting future

1423
02:15:35,240 --> 02:15:38,600
Is you know what I won't say more than that. Yeah, it's going to be an exciting future

1424
02:15:38,680 --> 02:15:43,240
Yeah, I mean I could talk for way too long about all the things that I think ubi soft could do to to fix themselves

1425
02:15:43,240 --> 02:15:48,200
I have lots of opinions on this I don't know if it makes sense to talk for an incredibly long time on that topic

1426
02:15:48,840 --> 02:15:52,440
Um, but I think I mean some of it feels like really obvious to me

1427
02:15:52,760 --> 02:15:59,000
Um, like we can start with skull and bones. It was like clearly an obvious massive failure when everyone on the

1428
02:15:59,640 --> 02:16:03,720
F***ing planet told you exactly what to do and you were like, no

1429
02:16:04,520 --> 02:16:08,760
Like maybe just listen to people. Maybe you should have just made another

1430
02:16:09,400 --> 02:16:14,840
like And I think they're remastering it as well do that Assassin's Creed 4 was one of the best things you ever made

1431
02:16:15,080 --> 02:16:17,960
Remaster it sure, but also make another one

1432
02:16:18,440 --> 02:16:21,560
Make a single player pirates game. That is awesome

1433
02:16:22,040 --> 02:16:25,960
No one cared about the assassin's creed portion of assassin's creed 4

1434
02:16:27,000 --> 02:16:35,640
All they cared about was the boats Make a single player boat combat game. It was sick. Just do it again. Oh my god

1435
02:16:36,440 --> 02:16:44,120
You're you're obviously best assassin's creed games were two and then the brotherhood and and ascension

1436
02:16:44,280 --> 02:16:46,280
I think I got the names right

1437
02:16:48,200 --> 02:16:54,280
Go back to Ezio make a like return of Ezio. It's been I think over a decade. I think it would be okay

1438
02:16:54,600 --> 02:16:59,880
I'm sure you can find a way to slot another story in in his like some age gap

1439
02:16:59,960 --> 02:17:03,400
He got he got a pretty old the fireman correctly between brotherhood and ascension

1440
02:17:03,800 --> 02:17:06,680
Find some stories in the middle there. It's probably fine. You can do it again

1441
02:17:06,920 --> 02:17:13,400
There's there's like a version of this for every single franchise. You're telling me you can't make a far cry game based around

1442
02:17:13,480 --> 02:17:17,720
What's happening in america right now? Are you kidding me?

1443
02:17:18,120 --> 02:17:24,200
Far cry was always the like political tension game. You think there's political tension right now in the states like

1444
02:17:25,480 --> 02:17:28,920
Find a way. There's a way for all of these things. It feels so

1445
02:17:29,640 --> 02:17:38,200
Obvious they made any like rayman games recently. I'm not sure like I they did some weird collab with mario like forever ago

1446
02:17:40,920 --> 02:17:46,040
Rayman they did already one of the Far Cry's was said in america. That's not current year problems

1447
02:17:47,080 --> 02:17:51,080
I mean a lot of america's current year problems are not exactly new

1448
02:17:52,760 --> 02:17:59,320
Mostly fair There was some there was a little bit it was a little bit

1449
02:17:59,400 --> 02:18:02,600
Yeah, I kind of like that one. I still have one of the figurines from oh, yeah, okay

1450
02:18:02,840 --> 02:18:08,840
Mario plus rabbits spark of hope it doesn't even have rayman in the name of the game rabbits just rabbits

1451
02:18:10,760 --> 02:18:15,400
Oh, whoa Seriously

1452
02:18:15,400 --> 02:18:20,120
Yeah, they haven't done like a mainline rayman game in

1453
02:18:21,160 --> 02:18:24,280
Freaking forever who cares about rabbits

1454
02:18:25,560 --> 02:18:28,060
I don't know that's crazy

1455
02:18:29,880 --> 02:18:33,400
Splinter cells seems like a huge dropped ball lots of potential there

1456
02:18:34,120 --> 02:18:38,600
um Well, am I missing something here? Yeah, rayman legends

1457
02:18:39,480 --> 02:18:43,320
Apparently was was the last one 2013

1458
02:18:46,200 --> 02:18:50,280
Whoa I

1459
02:18:52,040 --> 02:18:55,080
Just I'm looking at like some of their franchises right now

1460
02:18:55,240 --> 02:19:00,840
And it's just there's like so much potential and it just feels like they've like wet noodled every one of them

1461
02:19:01,560 --> 02:19:06,760
Like far cry when far cry was like banging with like far cry 3 far cry 4 around that area

1462
02:19:07,240 --> 02:19:13,000
They were very topical right very topical and they've just ditched that

1463
02:19:13,720 --> 02:19:19,080
um What are their other ips just kind of curious

1464
02:19:20,360 --> 02:19:24,680
Uh, you be soft the new anno doesn't seem like it's reviewing super well

1465
02:19:24,680 --> 02:19:30,200
I do wonder if that has like an expansion fatigue problem where the previous AI and

1466
02:19:30,760 --> 02:19:37,560
Things a lot of the like I don't know if they've fixed this yet But it came under fire a lot because all of the like loading screens and stuff like that

1467
02:19:38,040 --> 02:19:43,320
Uh, the painted backgrounds seemed to mostly just be AI generated. Um

1468
02:19:43,560 --> 02:19:46,680
Um It might have changed, you know

1469
02:19:47,160 --> 02:19:53,000
But a little disappointing It feels like a classic ubisoft decision though. So it's just like

1470
02:19:54,040 --> 02:19:56,040
I don't know

1471
02:19:57,160 --> 02:19:59,800
So here's some here's some ubisoft

1472
02:20:00,920 --> 02:20:04,840
ip's Man a lot of these have weakened

1473
02:20:05,480 --> 02:20:12,280
A lot all of them. I think I think pretty sure every single one anno was strong until the very most recent release anno 1800

1474
02:20:12,280 --> 02:20:15,640
Was an absolute yeah, the one in the photo was wicked

1475
02:20:16,120 --> 02:20:22,040
um Man beyond good and evil has been I don't know if that's been relevant for a really long time

1476
02:20:22,920 --> 02:20:28,360
If I was I I understand this is like literally not the point if I was running the steep project

1477
02:20:28,440 --> 02:20:35,000
I would probably do like, uh, uh, I don't know what you would call it like a remix version where you go back to like

1478
02:20:35,240 --> 02:20:39,560
SSX tricky style gameplay and release one of those remember when they released that far cry

1479
02:20:40,120 --> 02:20:50,760
That was like blood dragon. Yes I would do like a blood dragon for steep and make it more like, uh, the like old snowboarding games like 1080 and ssx tricky

1480
02:20:51,080 --> 02:20:57,720
And release a version of that If for no other reason to like just get people talking about your studio in a potentially positive way

1481
02:20:57,960 --> 02:21:05,000
Like there's answers all over the place. They have so many legendary ip under ubisoft and it just feels like every time

1482
02:21:05,080 --> 02:21:08,520
They just have to piss them away and it makes me want to scream

1483
02:21:09,320 --> 02:21:12,840
Um, the the skull and bones thing was such an insane disappointment

1484
02:21:13,000 --> 02:21:15,720
It was such an auto win that they just spent

1485
02:21:16,280 --> 02:21:20,120
Incredible amounts of money on making sure it would fail horrendously

1486
02:21:20,840 --> 02:21:26,520
So frustrating Okay, we're good. Do you want to talk about Bethesda now?

1487
02:21:26,920 --> 02:21:28,920
You seem like you're on it

1488
02:21:30,680 --> 02:21:36,280
I don't know Maybe we could talk about the decline of blizzard. Oh, am I like, oh, no

1489
02:21:37,080 --> 02:21:39,080
All right

1490
02:21:40,120 --> 02:21:43,480
Oh, you're not serious. Okay. I thought there was a Bethesda topic and I was like, I'm gonna

1491
02:21:44,040 --> 02:21:49,720
Vane's gonna pop out of my head. No. Okay. All right, test six is actually set in the starfield universe

1492
02:21:56,920 --> 02:21:58,920
Oh, no, my mic was unmuted I was

1493
02:22:00,280 --> 02:22:04,840
You get to the end of the game and you have to just delete your entire save and start over again because

1494
02:22:05,080 --> 02:22:10,360
For some reason that was a good idea. It takes you do that again into starfield and then you have to play that

1495
02:22:10,600 --> 02:22:15,320
Nice. Nice. And then it's a prequel. It's a prequel. Yes. Good. Good. Good. Good

1496
02:22:15,800 --> 02:22:21,480
Hey, that hey the worst mechanic in the entire game. Let's make them do that again. Let's let's do that another time

1497
02:22:22,520 --> 02:22:26,920
The microsoft ceo microsoft ceo acknowledges that they will lose

1498
02:22:27,480 --> 02:22:32,440
Social permission to waste electricity on ai unless they do something useful with it

1499
02:22:32,760 --> 02:22:34,760
Wait

1500
02:22:35,880 --> 02:22:45,960
In a surprising moment of self-awareness Microsoft ceo satcha nadella admitted at the world economic forum that ai risks and this is a direct quote

1501
02:22:46,680 --> 02:22:52,440
Becoming a speculative bubble unless its use spreads beyond big tech companies and wealthy economies

1502
02:22:53,000 --> 02:22:59,320
He also said that ai companies will quickly lose the social permission to take something like energy

1503
02:22:59,800 --> 02:23:09,080
Unless it's used for improving health outcomes education outcomes public sector efficiency private sector competitiveness across all sectors small and large

1504
02:23:11,400 --> 02:23:18,360
More quotes For this to not be a bubble it requires that the benefits of this are much more evenly spread

1505
02:23:18,920 --> 02:23:27,080
And he also said that the a telltale sign that ai is a bubble would be that only tech companies were benefiting

1506
02:23:30,040 --> 02:23:34,040
So it turns out they do hire really smart people to be CEOs of tech companies

1507
02:23:34,920 --> 02:23:39,560
Way to go. They just never say the quiet part out loud except when they do except for this time

1508
02:23:39,880 --> 02:23:46,360
man Davos and the World economic forum this year where just absolute fire a banger

1509
02:23:46,920 --> 02:23:50,040
Who needs the real housewives of beaverly hills when we have

1510
02:23:50,760 --> 02:23:52,760
Davos in the world economic forum

1511
02:23:54,600 --> 02:24:03,320
What a wild couple events I mean, I guess that's what happens when you hire a reality star to be the head of the world's largest economy

1512
02:24:05,400 --> 02:24:09,880
You end up with reality tv in your politics. It is. I mean the ratings are high

1513
02:24:10,600 --> 02:24:13,320
Everyone's watching. Yeah, they have the best ratings

1514
02:24:14,920 --> 02:24:20,040
My friends told me they said you've never seen ratings like this. Did they have it? He's right

1515
02:24:21,000 --> 02:24:30,840
Way to go um All right, so this comes after microsoft reaffirmed investments of tens of billions of dollars into building ai data centers

1516
02:24:31,240 --> 02:24:37,240
And after nadella asked the public To stop calling ai slop slop

1517
02:24:38,680 --> 02:24:44,440
To which the public responded by changing microsoft branding on things to microslop

1518
02:24:45,320 --> 02:24:50,440
Because of course that was going to happen. It's so easy now that they can just do it with ai. Ah, yes

1519
02:24:50,680 --> 02:24:53,880
Yes, anyone can meme on microsoft now

1520
02:24:54,440 --> 02:24:58,200
Our discussion question is should big investors into ai be sweating?

1521
02:24:59,800 --> 02:25:01,800
Yeah

1522
02:25:03,400 --> 02:25:06,600
Unless you think you can time your exit really really well

1523
02:25:07,480 --> 02:25:12,280
I mean I like I think we talked about this on wancho before and I've heard this argument elsewhere as well, but like

1524
02:25:13,000 --> 02:25:17,320
I don't think a lot like a lot of like the the the googles of the world

1525
02:25:17,960 --> 02:25:20,440
Whatever man, they have so much revenue flowing in

1526
02:25:21,080 --> 02:25:26,440
um They're gonna be fine the microsofts of the world. They're gonna be fine. Oh, yeah

1527
02:25:26,760 --> 02:25:33,240
Because they have they have real revenue. Do we have a real business ad thing in here an open ai ad

1528
02:25:33,560 --> 02:25:36,600
So open ai is talking about putting ads into their

1529
02:25:37,160 --> 02:25:45,880
Like free tier and stuff, but there's a for chat gpt There's a quote there's a quote from sam altman talking about how putting ads into the service would be like

1530
02:25:46,760 --> 02:25:49,880
a last financial resort and that quote was like

1531
02:25:50,760 --> 02:25:54,200
Not that long ago and now they're adding ads into the service

1532
02:25:56,200 --> 02:26:02,600
um and The discussion around this is is a little bit nuanced because some people are going like, okay

1533
02:26:02,920 --> 02:26:05,960
Well, he said last financial resort. So are they failing?

1534
02:26:06,920 --> 02:26:11,560
Like is this is this the beginning of the end? Here's a source from pcgamer dot

1535
02:26:12,440 --> 02:26:16,680
Whoa, what site am I on again? Which one just in case you I didn't know

1536
02:26:17,000 --> 02:26:21,720
Yeah, one's called it a last resort, but chat gpt is about to get stuffed with ads. Yeah, but

1537
02:26:22,360 --> 02:26:24,360
the the counter

1538
02:26:26,840 --> 02:26:29,160
Oh, sorry, oh my god. Yeah, it's a pretty good one

1539
02:26:30,600 --> 02:26:35,560
Oh because sam altman is such an ethical person that he was always

1540
02:26:36,120 --> 02:26:42,040
Never otherwise Even if they don't sell the data of the companies, they can still target you to all hell. So just be ready for that

1541
02:26:42,440 --> 02:26:49,800
um But uh, there is a counter argument that while it might actually genuinely be a last resort

1542
02:26:50,120 --> 02:26:54,040
It doesn't mean that they're necessarily failing

1543
02:26:54,040 --> 02:26:56,520
Um, if you look at I mean, they might have been

1544
02:26:57,320 --> 02:27:02,200
But this move might literally be significant enough that it actually solves their problems

1545
02:27:02,600 --> 02:27:06,200
Because there is just so much freaking money in ads

1546
02:27:06,840 --> 02:27:10,360
And like if you look at this is a direct argument from

1547
02:27:11,080 --> 02:27:14,200
Uh dug dug, I believe um

1548
02:27:14,200 --> 02:27:17,880
Which was basically like if you look at if you look at facebook and google

1549
02:27:18,760 --> 02:27:26,280
Clearly ads be banging. So like this might actually be enough to just bring them all the way up. It'll be interesting to observe

1550
02:27:26,840 --> 02:27:30,920
um Because I I really wonder how they're going to implement it because

1551
02:27:31,560 --> 02:27:33,560
And

1552
02:27:35,400 --> 02:27:38,520
Will this open the door for all the other ones to do the same

1553
02:27:39,720 --> 02:27:45,480
Absolutely as soon as I mean, this is why I always go off about apple doing something that's anti consumer

1554
02:27:46,120 --> 02:27:52,280
Because the second apple does it it gives everybody else permission to do it. It's not because I will even necessarily use the apple product

1555
02:27:53,080 --> 02:28:00,600
it's just because Everyone else blindly follows once something becomes a norm because there's another dollar to be made by

1556
02:28:00,680 --> 02:28:05,080
Not including a cable or a charger or whatever else is in the box. So if the household name

1557
02:28:05,960 --> 02:28:10,760
LLM service Then everybody else is

1558
02:28:10,840 --> 02:28:16,280
It's it's easy and they don't have to tank the reputational hit because opening. I will just do it somebody else did it first. Yeah, yeah

1559
02:28:17,560 --> 02:28:24,920
Yeah, um Our next discussion question is haven't these companies already lost their social permission to burn energy?

1560
02:28:25,720 --> 02:28:29,880
No, no, I mean, that's the thing. So this was written by david who I think is a very

1561
02:28:30,600 --> 02:28:33,240
He's a very dialed in person. He knows

1562
02:28:34,040 --> 02:28:39,880
He knows stuff about a lot of stuff and he's he's got a high high awareness level

1563
02:28:40,440 --> 02:28:44,920
You know, like, uh, high high awareness intelligence. You might say ai

1564
02:28:45,640 --> 02:28:51,640
um Sorry david, I would never say something that rude about you without it being a joke clearly a joke

1565
02:28:52,040 --> 02:28:57,240
Uh, but anyway, like david has a high level of awareness and um, I think that

1566
02:28:58,040 --> 02:29:02,360
I think that often We

1567
02:29:02,360 --> 02:29:09,160
And I mean I'm talking to you guys too right now. That's right. You I'm talking to you. Whoa, you guys very serious

1568
02:29:09,400 --> 02:29:17,000
We we live in our bubble We we hang out a lot of you probably work in in the tech industry a lot of you

1569
02:29:17,480 --> 02:29:24,040
Probably gravitate towards people in your lives who who keep up with and are interested in talking to you about the tech industry

1570
02:29:24,040 --> 02:29:27,720
You're watching How how long have we been how long have we been live?

1571
02:29:28,280 --> 02:29:36,680
You are you're two and a half hours Into a podcast that is at least loosely I was gonna say loosely like

1572
02:29:38,360 --> 02:29:43,080
Maintains a facade. Yeah, there you go. I'm being about technology, right?

1573
02:29:43,720 --> 02:29:47,000
And so I I feel like we end up with this inherent

1574
02:29:47,560 --> 02:29:53,640
I don't know if I would quite call it an echo chamber because I would like to think that we are open to new ideas

1575
02:29:54,360 --> 02:29:58,760
But it's definitely a self reinforcing

1576
02:29:58,760 --> 02:30:02,760
Perception that the things that we are knowledgeable about are

1577
02:30:03,320 --> 02:30:08,200
The same things that everyone around us is knowledgeable about and more importantly cares about

1578
02:30:09,000 --> 02:30:16,680
but no like My sister-in-law doesn't know how much power chat gpt is using

1579
02:30:18,120 --> 02:30:20,920
She doesn't even know it wouldn't even occur to her to ask

1580
02:30:21,240 --> 02:30:26,520
I I think there's a lot of people that are just going to be like, you know what I am invested in

1581
02:30:27,640 --> 02:30:33,960
the The stock market in general. I my pension is invested in the stock market in general

1582
02:30:34,040 --> 02:30:39,560
I want these companies to do whatever they're going to do to make money And I I think yeah a lot of people aren't going to say that out loud

1583
02:30:39,640 --> 02:30:48,040
And that's even a tier of awareness above Yeah, like what we're what we're talking about here where we where we care about the the technical details of

1584
02:30:48,520 --> 02:30:57,000
which NVIDIA accelerators and how much VRAM they have on them and what impact that has on the supply of silicon wafers

1585
02:30:57,080 --> 02:31:03,480
That's going to micron or sk hynix for the production of consumer memory and how that's affecting the pricing of the steam machine

1586
02:31:03,640 --> 02:31:08,920
Like that's the kind of stuff that we're talking about on this show with the assumption that you guys are all kind of saying

1587
02:31:08,920 --> 02:31:12,520
They're going yeah, yeah, I have all the context to kind of follow along with this

1588
02:31:13,000 --> 02:31:20,840
um but there's Other people who are like way more interested in nutritional supplements or in

1589
02:31:21,560 --> 02:31:28,760
The in in in min maxing the performance of their truck or whatever else it is that they do and they're passionate about and they care about

1590
02:31:28,760 --> 02:31:34,280
I'm not saying that these are not aware people. I'm just saying they might have a lower level of awareness

1591
02:31:34,360 --> 02:31:39,800
This particular topic. Yeah about this particular topic. I don't know what's going on and probably whatever they do

1592
02:31:40,680 --> 02:31:44,120
be either I couldn't I couldn't tell you who makes the best

1593
02:31:44,920 --> 02:31:47,400
Drill right now. Yeah, I don't know

1594
02:31:48,440 --> 02:31:52,600
Milwaukee Mekita. Yeah, DeWalt

1595
02:31:53,880 --> 02:32:00,120
I'm on the team of the probably not ryobi company that I have the battery compatibility with. Yeah, exactly, right?

1596
02:32:01,240 --> 02:32:05,960
To the project farm Yeah, yeah, to be honest

1597
02:32:05,960 --> 02:32:08,360
Exactly, right? So I'm um

1598
02:32:09,480 --> 02:32:14,920
so none of this really Surprises me that or none of this surprises me that

1599
02:32:15,640 --> 02:32:23,320
No, people Haven't gotten fed up with what ai companies are doing unless these companies are operating in their backyard and

1600
02:32:23,800 --> 02:32:31,640
and Emitting a bunch of you know toxic gas and smoke into the air that's like drifting over there over their house or whatever

1601
02:32:32,200 --> 02:32:36,840
um, and no, it doesn't surprise me either that david probably

1602
02:32:37,160 --> 02:32:46,840
lives in enough of a Technological bubble that to him it was like obvious that this is bad and to a lot of you guys like a lot of your your

1603
02:32:47,560 --> 02:32:53,880
Your adamant opposition to ai is based on understanding exactly what's going on right now

1604
02:32:55,160 --> 02:33:01,880
Um and being kind of powerless to stop it. I mean we talked about this in the um in the bright side of tech video

1605
02:33:02,520 --> 02:33:05,160
where it's like, yeah, you're you're 100 like

1606
02:33:05,960 --> 02:33:10,680
We got the I got the messaging wrong when I talked about it live on the WAN Show where I was like

1607
02:33:10,680 --> 02:33:14,440
We need a perspective adjustment a lot of people bristled at that wording

1608
02:33:14,760 --> 02:33:21,080
And so we we avoided that wording when we did the bright side of tech video, but it was thank you for beta testing our video

1609
02:33:21,160 --> 02:33:25,240
I know right it was but it was it was the same it was the same point

1610
02:33:25,640 --> 02:33:28,280
The point was that you're 100 right to be mad

1611
02:33:29,000 --> 02:33:37,720
100 um You're 100 right to feel powerless and frustrated 100 but just

1612
02:33:39,000 --> 02:33:41,640
Okay, can we direct it to the right places?

1613
02:33:42,760 --> 02:33:46,680
That's all can we just can we point it in the right direction?

1614
02:33:47,240 --> 02:33:51,240
um was kind of what I was trying to what I was trying to get across and

1615
02:33:51,800 --> 02:33:54,520
and and directing it at this at this

1616
02:33:57,480 --> 02:34:00,360
At this all in bet for the next

1617
02:34:01,000 --> 02:34:06,920
The next 5g the next iot the next big tech trend that will make the stock

1618
02:34:08,040 --> 02:34:12,840
Go go go hockey stick higher um at the expense of

1619
02:34:13,720 --> 02:34:17,960
You know anything else getting better for the the average consumer

1620
02:34:18,600 --> 02:34:23,800
um Yeah, definitely be mad about that, but you know, maybe not

1621
02:34:25,240 --> 02:34:30,360
Maybe not everything we I don't I just I don't think we have the energy to be angry about everything

1622
02:34:31,000 --> 02:34:35,960
I don't it's also just like really bad for you Well, yeah objectively

1623
02:34:36,040 --> 02:34:38,760
This is this is this is based in true. Yeah

1624
02:34:42,120 --> 02:34:49,400
Pick your battles and avoid the ones you don't have yeah Andre B says the bright side of tech video was a somewhat surprising video really appreciated it. Yeah, I

1625
02:34:50,360 --> 02:34:56,520
I um I wasn't sure how it was going to go It was one of those ones that we talked about a lot in the writer's room and we kind of

1626
02:34:57,160 --> 02:35:00,600
We knew that we were doing something a little bit risky

1627
02:35:01,240 --> 02:35:09,240
It's a lot easier to go. I am a consumer advocate. I am that was on paper mad on your behalf

1628
02:35:10,360 --> 02:35:16,040
Um, uh, that is effective. It's not effective. It doesn't do anything. It can be

1629
02:35:17,160 --> 02:35:22,200
It can be if it's done in a way that is effective, but

1630
02:35:23,160 --> 02:35:27,160
I haven't I haven't seen it With respect to anything around

1631
02:35:27,640 --> 02:35:31,880
What's going on with AI right now like being mad about micron

1632
02:35:32,360 --> 02:35:40,920
Shuttering the crucial brand is not going to change that decision I think the biggest impact we've seen actually is in gaming with a few companies coming out and saying that they'll

1633
02:35:41,240 --> 02:35:45,960
Limit their usage of it or whatever. Yeah, um, which is interesting and

1634
02:35:46,520 --> 02:35:49,880
Also, I don't know how much I don't know if I believe it's gonna last man

1635
02:35:50,120 --> 02:35:53,400
And I also have heard that that is

1636
02:35:54,760 --> 02:36:00,760
causing Some issues within a couple studios not one. I've heard more than one

1637
02:36:01,320 --> 02:36:06,040
um Where some of the workers are actually really frustrated

1638
02:36:07,480 --> 02:36:10,600
By not being able to use it. Yeah, that doesn't surprise me at all

1639
02:36:11,160 --> 02:36:14,280
Because there was certain cases where the higher ups didn't even know

1640
02:36:14,760 --> 02:36:18,840
To what degree it was being used and then made statements being like whatever dude

1641
02:36:19,160 --> 02:36:22,760
I I found out I found out about an AI tool that we were using

1642
02:36:23,160 --> 02:36:25,400
Yesterday in a meeting with an external company

1643
02:36:26,680 --> 02:36:32,360
I had no idea. So apparently, you know, the the safety pass on our videos

1644
02:36:32,920 --> 02:36:37,320
Where we check for exposed email addresses. Oh, yeah, IP addresses

1645
02:36:37,880 --> 02:36:42,600
Um physical addresses phone numbers Are you doing an automated run of that as well?

1646
02:36:42,600 --> 02:36:45,960
Apparently there's an automated run of that before a human goes in and checks it

1647
02:36:46,120 --> 02:36:49,320
Yeah, so you do the classic you don't actually remove the human step

1648
02:36:49,400 --> 02:36:54,200
But you added that one to help and we we we've tuned it to be extremely sensitive

1649
02:36:54,440 --> 02:36:57,720
So out of 20 positives probably only two of them will be real

1650
02:36:58,040 --> 02:37:06,600
Sure, but then when the human check happens, I can just verify those things But I literally didn't even know we were doing that and uh and and um a member of our a member of our team

1651
02:37:07,320 --> 02:37:13,000
James was telling this this other entity that we were chatting with and sort of sharing

1652
02:37:13,480 --> 02:37:16,920
Exchanging trade secrets basically. Yeah learning from each other

1653
02:37:17,560 --> 02:37:24,760
um He he was like, yeah And like the best thing about it is that for a 20 minute video it doesn't take 20 minutes to watch it

1654
02:37:24,760 --> 02:37:31,720
It can do it in like a few seconds and then you can just be surgical about what you're then reviewing as a human is like

1655
02:37:33,480 --> 02:37:37,960
It doesn't surprise me at all then that the leadership at these companies literally just had

1656
02:37:38,520 --> 02:37:44,280
No idea what the employees were doing because at the end of the day as long as the work output quality is high

1657
02:37:44,440 --> 02:37:50,920
The way we're going it's just gonna it's gonna be another tool whether you like it or not

1658
02:37:51,160 --> 02:37:54,280
Yeah, and for a lot of people already is and for a lot of people it has been for a long time

1659
02:37:54,920 --> 02:37:59,720
As well like there's nothing you could do as you know, let's say larion

1660
02:38:00,200 --> 02:38:06,440
There's nothing that you could do as larion to prevent your concept artists from generating a bunch of ai slop on their computer at home

1661
02:38:08,360 --> 02:38:11,960
Being inspired and then being inspired the next day when they come into the office

1662
02:38:12,200 --> 02:38:17,160
You literally can't Yeah, you can't actually technically control it

1663
02:38:19,000 --> 02:38:21,000
You can you can set uh

1664
02:38:22,120 --> 02:38:26,280
Like a tone for your company you can you can try to set like a general expectation

1665
02:38:26,680 --> 02:38:30,520
And then people would have to work around that and be sneaky and dodgy about it

1666
02:38:30,520 --> 02:38:34,040
Which will significantly reduce it potentially to zero

1667
02:38:34,360 --> 02:38:38,280
But you can't actually guarantee that it will be at zero the the cat's out of the bag

1668
02:38:38,280 --> 02:38:41,000
This is this is the same argument i've made in the past about like

1669
02:38:41,720 --> 02:38:46,280
Um the ai regulation stuff is like i don't know what you can do at this point

1670
02:38:46,680 --> 02:38:50,680
Um, and i'm a very open to ideas to be clear. I'm not saying don't do anything but

1671
02:38:51,160 --> 02:38:56,120
Like the the models have already been trained and then open sourced. They're out there

1672
02:38:56,680 --> 02:39:01,720
There's no we're you can't turn this off. There's no turning the faucet to close. It's it's

1673
02:39:02,440 --> 02:39:07,480
It's out there people are are running this in home Labs. You cannot take it fully away anymore

1674
02:39:07,560 --> 02:39:12,760
And in fairness a lot of the ideas are really good like look at this tiger polar bear

1675
02:39:16,680 --> 02:39:19,640
Can you imagine can you imagine star wars?

1676
02:39:20,600 --> 02:39:25,160
With creature design of this caliber that is what ai's

1677
02:39:27,000 --> 02:39:30,280
It's just so sad man. Sorry. Sorry. Sorry

1678
02:39:31,240 --> 02:39:34,040
Pond crackers goes. Oh, no not again

1679
02:39:34,760 --> 02:39:39,720
It's so sad for so many reasons because like that obviously just in and of itself is

1680
02:39:40,280 --> 02:39:44,200
Depressing but then just seeing what has happened to star wars and then seeing that that is

1681
02:39:44,680 --> 02:39:50,840
A genuinely like praised idea coming out of that camp just is so sad. That's not even the worst one

1682
02:39:50,840 --> 02:39:54,520
This is the worst one. Yeah, this is by far the worst one

1683
02:39:56,120 --> 02:39:58,120
They're all so bad though

1684
02:40:01,000 --> 02:40:03,000
So

1685
02:40:04,600 --> 02:40:11,560
He looks he even looks He scrolled down like he actually just looks sad. He's like, why did this happen to me?

1686
02:40:13,000 --> 02:40:16,120
This one is this one is upset that he has to wear that costume

1687
02:40:16,440 --> 02:40:20,600
It sounds like why did they why did they put weird dots on me? I would never show this

1688
02:40:20,600 --> 02:40:23,800
Just show don't show it to no WAN Show it to no one and talk about it

1689
02:40:23,800 --> 02:40:28,200
Not at all that would be the solution pat them on their head and tell them to run off to their cubicle again

1690
02:40:28,200 --> 02:40:30,200
And go do more productive things

1691
02:40:33,960 --> 02:40:38,520
RIP star wars um Speaking of open sourcing algorithms

1692
02:40:38,600 --> 02:40:42,280
Elon musk has been talking about open sourcing the recommendation algorithm behind x

1693
02:40:42,920 --> 02:40:48,440
Since before he bought twitter and attempted to rebranded x earlier this week news broke that it was finally happening

1694
02:40:48,840 --> 02:40:54,280
But the story evolved rapidly with the target date shifting from next week to march 31st

1695
02:40:54,360 --> 02:40:57,560
No There is an existing github repository

1696
02:40:57,880 --> 02:41:04,520
Purporting to be the code behind the algorithm But most of the code is from before x was x with the latest changes coming back in september of 20

1697
02:41:05,080 --> 02:41:09,400
25 I wonder if when they open source it if they ever do

1698
02:41:09,880 --> 02:41:15,560
We'll be able to find the part where his tweet is always at the very top of my feed regardless of whether I follow him or not

1699
02:41:16,200 --> 02:41:18,200
Yeah, probably not probably not

1700
02:41:19,320 --> 02:41:23,320
Probably not Google begins rolling out

1701
02:41:23,880 --> 02:41:27,480
Personal intelligence beta for ai pro and ai ultra subscribers

1702
02:41:28,120 --> 02:41:34,280
Gemini with personal intelligence hopes to combine the data from across many different google products gmail youtube photos drive search calendar

1703
02:41:34,360 --> 02:41:39,960
Etc to provide highly personalized answers Google's pitch as to why you don't have to worry about privacy is literally

1704
02:41:40,520 --> 02:41:46,120
And because this data already lives at google securely you don't have to send sensitive data elsewhere to start personalizing your experience

1705
02:41:46,280 --> 02:41:48,680
Which love it. I have to insert

1706
02:41:50,680 --> 02:41:54,280
Is just true They already have it all anyways

1707
02:41:54,600 --> 02:41:59,640
They're not like it's Maybe this is a quiet part out loud thing, but like I read that and I was like, yeah

1708
02:42:00,440 --> 02:42:05,800
They also promise that gemini doesn't train directly on your gmail inbox or google photos library

1709
02:42:06,200 --> 02:42:12,360
But they will train on prompts and responses within gemini. Okay, and I think a key word there is directly

1710
02:42:12,680 --> 02:42:18,200
For example, when prompted gemini will tell you where it pulled the information from so you can verify it and you can correct it on the spot

1711
02:42:18,280 --> 02:42:22,200
i.e. I don't like golf or I just dropped my son off there for work

1712
02:42:22,520 --> 02:42:27,000
It will also filter out or obfuscate what it deems to be personal data. I don't good luck with that

1713
02:42:27,000 --> 02:42:31,160
Yeah, sure it definitely will definitely do that also ai's have no history of gaslighting

1714
02:42:31,160 --> 02:42:35,160
You're telling you things that are false ever they definitely would never do that. This is not a problem

1715
02:42:35,320 --> 02:42:39,000
I'm kind of tempted to try it just to see if like it does anything useful at all

1716
02:42:39,080 --> 02:42:43,160
But I also just feel like it's gonna end up being a waste of time probably set an alarm for you

1717
02:42:44,120 --> 02:42:48,520
It's just one Just one, yeah

1718
02:42:48,680 --> 02:42:53,240
Oh the fact that like set timer and set alarm were not just like running locally on my device

1719
02:42:53,320 --> 02:42:57,080
And I have to wait around for the cloud delay is nuts in 2026

1720
02:42:57,320 --> 02:43:05,400
I I didn't have networking on my phone and I tried to set an alarm and it just sat there spinning and I realized why and I was like

1721
02:43:05,480 --> 02:43:10,920
Oh my god, I want to smash this thing It would be so simple to process that locally

1722
02:43:11,400 --> 02:43:14,920
But no But no

1723
02:43:14,920 --> 02:43:18,920
Okay, our next topic gigs in space

1724
02:43:20,680 --> 02:43:26,120
And the first note for this from mr. Jordan block is sorry. I've been rewatching old muppet shows

1725
02:43:26,280 --> 02:43:30,920
That's kind of based really good. I uh, I forget how old I was but I was an adult

1726
02:43:31,000 --> 02:43:33,960
I didn't watch the muppets as a kid because it was a little before my time

1727
02:43:34,520 --> 02:43:38,440
Um, but I I did watch the old the muppet show. It's so good

1728
02:43:38,520 --> 02:43:41,320
It's like so funny and subversive and

1729
02:43:42,040 --> 02:43:49,880
I am old enough that I at least know who a lot of the people they're making references to are

1730
02:43:50,600 --> 02:43:56,760
Um, yeah, it's uh, I don't know that younger people would enjoy it. I think

1731
02:43:57,640 --> 02:44:03,560
Like mid to to elder millennial is probably about as young as you'd want to be but it's it's really good

1732
02:44:03,960 --> 02:44:07,480
Yeah, and the reboot movies were good too. At least the first one or two were

1733
02:44:08,760 --> 02:44:14,200
On wednesday this week blue origin the bezos founded space technology company announced their upcoming

1734
02:44:14,440 --> 02:44:19,720
Terra wave a network of more than 5 000 satellites in low earth orbit that they say will deliver

1735
02:44:19,960 --> 02:44:23,240
Symmetrical speeds of up to six terabit per second anywhere on the globe

1736
02:44:24,040 --> 02:44:30,440
Uh, well, I'll believe that when I see it the new network is expected to serve up to 100 000 customers globally and will offer both rf

1737
02:44:30,760 --> 02:44:36,440
144 gigabit per second and optical six terabit per second connectivity options

1738
02:44:36,920 --> 02:44:43,320
Current low earth orbit constellations are serving millions of customers with asymmetric speeds up to 1 gigabit per second download and 400

1739
02:44:43,640 --> 02:44:47,320
megabit per second upload with the main one being of course

1740
02:44:47,960 --> 02:44:52,840
starlink, uh, there is another one. What is it called? Um

1741
02:44:55,480 --> 02:45:00,600
Galileo Galileo, um, how many satellites?

1742
02:45:01,480 --> 02:45:05,480
But I think starlink is like way ahead of the others

1743
02:45:06,680 --> 02:45:08,680
AI overview says as of

1744
02:45:09,720 --> 02:45:13,720
late 2025 the Galileo

1745
02:45:14,520 --> 02:45:16,520
Figaro

1746
02:45:19,080 --> 02:45:22,680
What is this a is this a reference to yeah, I heard about

1747
02:45:23,800 --> 02:45:28,280
Oh, you got I got duped by a Floatplane Kerbal space program mod

1748
02:45:28,920 --> 02:45:33,480
That was a good one chat. I like that That's good. Dang

1749
02:45:33,720 --> 02:45:38,040
You got I haven't had egg on my face for a while tastes good

1750
02:45:42,600 --> 02:45:50,440
Yeah, apparently there's really not a lot of Galileo satellites up there yet. Um, no Galileo is also, um

1751
02:45:51,160 --> 02:45:54,680
People are saying Galileo is gps equivalent. Well, hold on a second. What does um

1752
02:45:59,640 --> 02:46:02,840
Hold on hold on I'm gonna figure this out. Um

1753
02:46:04,200 --> 02:46:07,720
I mean, it's definitely it's definitely a thing

1754
02:46:09,720 --> 02:46:14,360
Leo satellite go go Galileo broadband connectivity for every airframe like it's

1755
02:46:15,160 --> 02:46:20,680
Definitely internet connectivity high speed low latency internet to business aircraft. Um

1756
02:46:22,120 --> 02:46:24,760
I don't know how many I don't know how many satellites they have

1757
02:46:27,800 --> 02:46:32,760
Apparently Galileo is europe's gps. So maybe it's just a double naming thing maybe there's two

1758
02:46:34,040 --> 02:46:41,480
Go go Galileo uses the utel sat one web low earth orbit satellite constellation which consists of somewhere around

1759
02:46:42,520 --> 02:46:47,560
600 satellites according to the ai overview. Okay, so it's the utel sat one web

1760
02:46:48,360 --> 02:46:51,640
How many one web satellites are in orbit?

1761
02:46:53,000 --> 02:46:57,240
As of early march 2023 according to wikipedia, there are 584

1762
02:46:57,880 --> 02:47:02,360
Okay, got it got it got it got it got it got it got it got it Okay

1763
02:47:02,600 --> 02:47:09,240
Well Anywho a discussion question. Could this be a viable solution for remote ingest of footage when we're shooting on location?

1764
02:47:09,240 --> 02:47:17,000
I mean potentially, but it's all going to depend on like starlink what the power requirements are and the the fixture requirements are for the

1765
02:47:17,720 --> 02:47:20,840
Uh for the base stations, which I haven't seen yet

1766
02:47:21,800 --> 02:47:23,800
What is starlink operating over?

1767
02:47:25,960 --> 02:47:29,800
Like what frequency or uh, well this was saying rf or optical

1768
02:47:31,080 --> 02:47:38,680
Starlink's definitely not optical Yeah, I feel like optical is going to be tough and they're they're trying to talk about the the six terabits per second

1769
02:47:39,000 --> 02:47:41,000
But optical so it's like

1770
02:47:42,760 --> 02:47:44,760
Yeah

1771
02:47:45,880 --> 02:47:51,240
I don't know dude sounds pretty awesome, but like I I wonder um,

1772
02:47:51,800 --> 02:47:57,800
does your Does your transfer get cancelled if a plane flies overhead or if there's a cloud or a

1773
02:47:58,760 --> 02:48:00,760
What if a complicated flies overhead

1774
02:48:06,520 --> 02:48:09,400
It's very interesting to me though, that's crazy like it sounds

1775
02:48:10,200 --> 02:48:15,080
Kind of uh pretty epic. I would like to know more. I'd like to know what the complications are and stuff like that

1776
02:48:15,640 --> 02:48:20,680
How much of a difference is it in latency if you're at like 40,000 feet versus if you're on the surface of the earth

1777
02:48:21,320 --> 02:48:24,600
For like a for like a low earth orbit internet connection. I wonder

1778
02:48:24,680 --> 02:48:29,400
Huh like how high How high in feet

1779
02:48:29,560 --> 02:48:33,560
are Satellite to satellite is optical for starlink that makes sense

1780
02:48:33,560 --> 02:48:39,160
But am I am I misreading this is is their optical just satellite to satellite? Oh, okay. They're like

1781
02:48:39,800 --> 02:48:42,520
1.8 million feet, so it wouldn't make that much of a difference

1782
02:48:45,480 --> 02:48:49,400
Are the notes of this like kind of weird is it not optical down to earth?

1783
02:48:49,480 --> 02:48:52,680
Is it just optical to each other's satellite? Yeah, it can't be optical down to earth

1784
02:48:54,680 --> 02:48:56,680
So then it's our

1785
02:48:58,040 --> 02:49:01,240
The way it's worded is anyways, whatever we're moving on

1786
02:49:03,960 --> 02:49:06,760
The show today is brought to you by factor meals

1787
02:49:07,320 --> 02:49:11,400
James from the business team has been going through his third playthrough of final fantasy 6. Oh good

1788
02:49:11,880 --> 02:49:15,640
Uh, this time the pixel remaster and he says he lost track of time trying to get the

1789
02:49:15,960 --> 02:49:19,960
Ultima weapon last weekend and didn't end up making dinner until well past 10 p.m

1790
02:49:20,200 --> 02:49:24,520
Okay My generation called it atma weapon, but that's fine

1791
02:49:24,920 --> 02:49:29,960
This wouldn't have been a problem if he had a bacon shrimp mac and cheese from factor meals ready to go in his fridge

1792
02:49:30,360 --> 02:49:37,080
Factor meals are made by real chefs with plans designed by dieticians delivered to your door and ready to heat and eat in just a couple of minutes

1807
02:51:01,560 --> 02:51:03,800
Should go and watch more advertisements for the plane chat

1808
02:51:04,760 --> 02:51:09,480
Please yeah flow plane. What are you doing? I have you know, I have seen you not even have ads

1809
02:51:09,880 --> 02:51:14,680
I've seen people asking like can we have like compilations? Yeah, we should do 2025 compilations probably

1810
02:51:15,560 --> 02:51:24,120
Oh Man, I'm sore. Are you good, bro? I did badminton three days in a week sunday monday tuesday. I just wrecked myself

1811
02:51:24,840 --> 02:51:26,840
I'm just I'm not as young as I once was

1812
02:51:27,880 --> 02:51:31,720
I mean in fairness. I went pretty hard. I think even when I was younger

1813
02:51:31,800 --> 02:51:35,640
I probably would erect myself pretty good doing this, but I think I like I kind of like

1814
02:51:36,440 --> 02:51:39,560
Pulled something in here my left ARM ironically. What's up with that?

1815
02:51:40,680 --> 02:51:42,680
Yeah, right see that's what the face. I made

1816
02:51:45,000 --> 02:51:52,520
Us muscles in the back get real weird The u.s. Government will be taking a 25 cut of AMD and invidia's ai sales to china

1817
02:51:53,320 --> 02:51:59,000
Uh, the u.s. Government has decided it will take a 25 cut of revenue for certain ai chips that AMD and invidia sold to china

1818
02:51:59,000 --> 02:52:08,040
As part of new tariff rules. This isn't just a tax It's tied to a broader export policy that now lets those companies export advanced ai processors like invidia's h200

1819
02:52:08,040 --> 02:52:13,000
And AMD's mi 325x to china after importing them into the us first

1820
02:52:14,280 --> 02:52:21,400
So basically, yeah, there isn't actually a problem with our geopolitical arrival having access to these advanced processors

1821
02:52:21,800 --> 02:52:24,280
They just need to like pay a bit more

1822
02:52:24,840 --> 02:52:29,320
And be shipped around for no reason or chips only qualify if they meet specified

1823
02:52:29,880 --> 02:52:33,720
Specific performance and technical thresholds exporters must prove to the

1824
02:52:33,720 --> 02:52:38,840
Prove that the us market is fully supplied first and that shipments to china can't exceed half of what's sold in the us

1825
02:52:38,840 --> 02:52:45,720
All of which limits how many gps will actually move the idea behind the cut is to let us firms get back into china's ai market

1826
02:52:45,720 --> 02:52:48,440
While the government extracts revenue instead of outright banning the sales

1827
02:52:48,920 --> 02:52:54,200
This policy is unusual and it is meant to survive legal challenges because it applies only to certain chips that meet specific

1828
02:52:54,280 --> 02:52:58,280
Criteria. So good luck everyone with all of that. That seems like a

1829
02:52:59,160 --> 02:53:06,760
Perfectly good plan Meanwhile, the us department of health and human services is worried about the dangers of radio signals

1830
02:53:07,160 --> 02:53:10,600
And has removed web pages that assert that cell phones are safe

1831
02:53:12,360 --> 02:53:16,440
Really Nice So at the highest level

1832
02:53:16,680 --> 02:53:19,640
Of the world's largest economies government

1833
02:53:20,360 --> 02:53:23,800
We're actually like 5g

1834
02:53:23,800 --> 02:53:28,760
Paranoia really nice. This is this is this real this timeline that we're on

1835
02:53:29,400 --> 02:53:32,600
Nice. Yeah, mu says uh back to this again

1836
02:53:33,560 --> 02:53:42,360
An hhs representative Directed by the maha initiative said that they removed the web pages that had old conclusions that required more research to

1837
02:53:42,600 --> 02:53:45,080
Identify gaps in knowledge and radio wave safety

1838
02:53:46,920 --> 02:53:50,200
A lot of the 5g hate that's out there is based on a handful of studies

1839
02:53:50,520 --> 02:53:53,560
Like one that showed a link between the persistent use of cell phones

1840
02:53:53,560 --> 02:53:58,520
Which resulted in the formation of tumors and nerves surrounding the hearts of male rats, but not female rats or mice

1841
02:53:59,160 --> 02:54:07,640
Um Optional editorializing says our notes from mr. David gochie most scientists see this study and say that the field requires more research

1842
02:54:07,720 --> 02:54:13,320
But many conspiratorial social media health influencers see that as the most convincing proof they've ever seen

1843
02:54:13,640 --> 02:54:16,360
Because they've never seen real scientific proof before

1844
02:54:17,320 --> 02:54:20,600
Or if they have seen it they wouldn't recognize that I added the last bit

1845
02:54:20,920 --> 02:54:27,000
I kenneth our foster phd professor emeritus of bioengineering at the university of pennsylvania said in a 2018 article that

1846
02:54:27,480 --> 02:54:31,800
People have been using cell phones for decades and so far there's been no noticeable increase in brain cancer

1847
02:54:32,040 --> 02:54:37,400
Dr. Foster said this means that the risk if it occurs at all is too low to detect with any reliability

1848
02:54:37,800 --> 02:54:40,520
so it's basically where we're at on that and um

1849
02:54:41,400 --> 02:54:45,160
We have apparently moved backwards now in terms of

1850
02:54:46,120 --> 02:54:49,880
understanding of all of this which is

1851
02:54:50,200 --> 02:54:54,840
Pretty neat tylor says there was a lawmaker in florida posting about chem trails this week

1852
02:54:55,160 --> 02:55:00,680
So here's the thing it's so chem trails is one of those ones that's super easy to logic your way out of because

1853
02:55:01,480 --> 02:55:07,960
the conspiracy theory is They put chemicals in the air for mind control to which you reply

1854
02:55:08,680 --> 02:55:13,080
Okay, then why isn't it controlling your mind and how are you able to see through it?

1855
02:55:13,320 --> 02:55:15,320
Ah, I have superior lungs

1856
02:55:16,440 --> 02:55:21,000
I guess You should test that

1857
02:55:21,000 --> 02:55:28,040
Try putting a plastic bag on your head. Nope, and then seeing how long you can breathe in it for I can resist that

1858
02:55:28,200 --> 02:55:30,760
Because I have resisted the mind control

1859
02:55:32,120 --> 02:55:39,080
I am undefeatable You will never win see that's the problem with using logic to argue with illogical people

1860
02:55:39,320 --> 02:55:46,200
They're impervious to it. It's it's remarkable because I am undefeatable. I can mute you

1861
02:55:49,240 --> 02:55:55,640
I am impervious to the mute. You would have to mute yourself as well. I cannot be defeated

1862
02:56:01,160 --> 02:56:04,680
Maybe I should just give up on all of this and go be a gay frog somewhere

1863
02:56:05,480 --> 02:56:13,720
I Did not see that coming at all. They never see the gay frogs coming. Oh my

1864
02:56:16,200 --> 02:56:21,240
ASUS smartphone development is apparently on pause while the company shifts its focus to AI

1865
02:56:21,800 --> 02:56:27,720
ASUS chairman Johnny Shee has stated that ASUS will no longer add new mobile phone models in the future instead

1866
02:56:28,040 --> 02:56:31,560
ASUS will focus on developing AI products such as robots and smart glasses

1867
02:56:32,360 --> 02:56:36,680
With that said existing phones will continue to receive software updates and warranty support

1868
02:56:37,000 --> 02:56:42,760
Our discussion question from mr. David pan crats is has there really ever been an ASUS phone that you would actively recommend?

1869
02:56:42,760 --> 02:56:47,960
Anyway, is this a huge loss? I strongly believe a significant amount of companies are branding

1870
02:56:49,240 --> 02:56:58,280
fairly obvious company and operational and directional changes as we are pivoting to AI in a hope that that gets enough attention to pump their stock

1871
02:56:59,240 --> 02:57:03,880
That's it same thing as people branding layoffs has returned to office

1872
02:57:04,600 --> 02:57:08,920
Um, I think it's the same thing. I think it's just companies doing company stuff and just

1873
02:57:09,480 --> 02:57:14,120
Branding the company stuff in the most stock pumping way possible. And I think that's it

1874
02:57:14,360 --> 02:57:19,560
Mi gore and Floatplane chat says Is he still made phones? Yeah, but this is my point

1875
02:57:20,440 --> 02:57:26,760
Like why were they still doing that? I don't know. It's a good question. So if you're on their side, maybe you want to stop

1876
02:57:27,480 --> 02:57:35,640
Yeah, and maybe the way to stop Is be like we're gonna do uh AI stuff instead right right when you probably could have done both

1877
02:57:35,960 --> 02:57:43,480
Yeah, it seems to me red magic has sort of like a monopoly on gaming phones that actually make any sense at all

1878
02:57:43,880 --> 02:57:49,880
For sure. Is there is there anyone i'm missing? I think uh, I don't think there's a massive market for it. I mean

1879
02:57:51,320 --> 02:57:55,880
Red magic exists and as far as I can tell they don't have they don't do anything else. Sure. Yeah

1880
02:57:56,040 --> 02:57:58,040
I've also never seen one in the wild

1881
02:57:59,880 --> 02:58:06,360
I have oh, I've actually also seen an rog phone in the wild and not one that someone won at our christmas party

1882
02:58:07,080 --> 02:58:15,640
um I was quite surprised to see it Someone took a picture like at a taiwanese tech mall or something and they like had an rog phone. I was like what?

1883
02:58:17,320 --> 02:58:22,520
There you go. It feels a little unfair that it was at a taiwanese tech mall. Well, I don't make the rules

1884
02:58:22,680 --> 02:58:28,440
Yeah, yeah, um anyways, I think that's all this is personally

1885
02:58:29,080 --> 02:58:33,480
I don't blame them for the change and I don't even blame them for trying to market it in a way that pumps the stock

1886
02:58:33,480 --> 02:58:35,480
Is just companies doing company stuff

1887
02:58:37,560 --> 02:58:39,560
So what will be our AI pivot?

1888
02:58:42,360 --> 02:58:51,080
We don't benchmark anything anymore We tell the AI the specs and we tell it the historical performance of various things

1889
02:58:51,720 --> 02:58:55,640
We inform it that companies generally go after price bands

1890
02:58:56,040 --> 02:59:02,600
We tell it what the cost of the device will be and then we ask it how it performs. That sounds really cheap. I'm in

1891
02:59:03,880 --> 02:59:08,280
I'm convinced. Let's do it. Nice. Nice. Nice. Nice

1892
02:59:09,320 --> 02:59:15,640
Okay Vimeo is laying off staff globally after it's 1.38 billion dollar sale to bending spoons

1893
02:59:16,040 --> 02:59:19,880
After being bought by italian tech firm bending spoons for about 1.38 billion

1894
02:59:19,880 --> 02:59:25,400
Vimeo has cut a large chunk of its workforce with former employees saying it felt like almost everyone was let go

1895
02:59:25,400 --> 02:59:31,640
Including reportedly the entire video team, which isn't that like what Vimeo does video

1896
02:59:31,640 --> 02:59:37,880
Established in 2004 a year prior to youtube. Vimeo has carved out a niche as a high-end video hosting platform

1897
02:59:37,880 --> 02:59:42,520
Catering primarily to professional creators and businesses rather than viral entertainment

1898
02:59:42,760 --> 02:59:45,960
It's actually the second set of job cuts in a few months back in september

1899
02:59:45,960 --> 02:59:49,400
Vimeo trimmed about 10 percent of their staff before the acquisition wrapped

1900
02:59:49,800 --> 02:59:54,600
Bending spoons has a bit of a history of buying tech platforms like we transfer evernote meetup

1901
02:59:54,600 --> 03:00:00,440
Bit of a history and then making deep cuts afterward, which makes this feel a little less surprising

1902
03:00:00,440 --> 03:00:08,840
I think you could I think Calling this a bit of a history is completely fair for the person who wrote this but I will editorialize a little bit and say

1903
03:00:08,840 --> 03:00:14,840
This is what they do Um, they they they enter into spaces

1904
03:00:14,840 --> 03:00:18,840
Purchase companies up Consolidate simplify

1905
03:00:18,840 --> 03:00:24,840
Layoff fire Take profit and then who knows after that

1906
03:00:28,840 --> 03:00:30,840
Yeah

1907
03:00:32,840 --> 03:00:38,840
Acquisitions I'm just trying to see like who they Products vimeo evernote event bright we transfer meetup

1908
03:00:38,840 --> 03:00:42,040
Komoot aol stream yard is

1909
03:00:42,040 --> 03:00:46,840
Sue Mile IQ harvest break cove and remony

1910
03:00:46,840 --> 03:00:48,840
Apparently they have a thousand employees

1911
03:00:50,840 --> 03:00:54,840
Wow Wow indeed

1912
03:00:54,840 --> 03:00:58,840
Private equity go ber Yeah, no kidding

1913
03:00:58,840 --> 03:01:02,840
So Here's a question

1914
03:01:02,840 --> 03:01:04,840
Doesn't drop out use Vimeo. Yes

1915
03:01:06,840 --> 03:01:10,840
They do should they use Floatplane That'd be pretty sick

1916
03:01:10,840 --> 03:01:12,840
Um

1917
03:01:14,840 --> 03:01:18,840
That'd be pretty sick. I've always seen getting them on full plane as the like

1918
03:01:20,840 --> 03:01:24,840
I don't know the special artifact the holy grail whatever

1919
03:01:24,840 --> 03:01:28,840
I always thought that would be really cool I really like what they do over there

1920
03:01:34,840 --> 03:01:38,840
Are we ready, I don't know I think we could be

1921
03:01:40,840 --> 03:01:44,840
We need to do some work to make our thing more like what I think that they want

1922
03:01:48,840 --> 03:01:52,840
I'm not sure Like that'd be

1923
03:01:52,840 --> 03:01:56,840
I wouldn't obviously think that they would just upload to Floatplane that would be stupid

1924
03:01:56,840 --> 03:02:00,840
But well if they were to do something like sauce plus where they had their own

1925
03:02:00,840 --> 03:02:08,840
But they they do I think yeah I haven't dove into this in a while, but I would make the assumption that Vimeo is just delivering their video

1926
03:02:08,840 --> 03:02:12,840
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, so their site is actually just theirs anyways

1927
03:02:12,840 --> 03:02:16,840
Man, they have so much cool stuff. My goodness

1928
03:02:16,840 --> 03:02:20,840
They make so much content. It's actually mind-blowing

1929
03:02:20,840 --> 03:02:26,840
They're an extremely interesting company. It's it's it's funny because they have a crazy amount of subscribers from what I've heard

1930
03:02:26,840 --> 03:02:32,840
I don't know if it's real or not But they have a they have a wild amount of subscribers claimed at least

1931
03:02:34,840 --> 03:02:40,840
They have a insane amount of like shows and originals and different things that they make

1932
03:02:40,840 --> 03:02:44,840
But they're so like Not super

1933
03:02:44,840 --> 03:02:52,840
Public because all their stuff is paid access. Yeah, and it's it's just fascinating how like successful they've been at this model

1934
03:02:52,840 --> 03:02:54,840
Um

1935
03:02:56,840 --> 03:02:58,840
Yeah, I don't know they're a cool group

1936
03:03:02,840 --> 03:03:06,840
I wonder what that would even Look like

1937
03:03:06,840 --> 03:03:10,840
Like us just doing info info and not doing the platform

1938
03:03:10,840 --> 03:03:14,840
It would look like yet again something we've never done before

1939
03:03:18,840 --> 03:03:24,840
We could do it we've we've like Theorycrafted scenarios where it's something like that, but that's not a

1940
03:03:24,840 --> 03:03:28,840
Like becoming Vimeo was never a target because Vimeo exists

1941
03:03:28,840 --> 03:03:36,840
You know like it was oh wow. Yeah, this was just linked by max o drive in Floatplane chat

1942
03:03:36,840 --> 03:03:44,840
Websites using Vimeo Download a list of all two million one hundred fifteen thousand seven hundred and one current Vimeo customers

1943
03:03:44,840 --> 03:03:52,840
Oh, yeah built with is a really cool website. Oh, that's super cool. Yeah built with is awesome actually

1944
03:03:52,840 --> 03:03:56,840
Huh I mean is

1945
03:03:56,840 --> 03:04:00,840
At some point should we like try and make it fly or should we just like not really bother, you know

1946
03:04:00,840 --> 03:04:04,840
One of the problems Um

1947
03:04:04,840 --> 03:04:08,840
And this is like it's a problem and it's also a big part of the reason why we still exist

1948
03:04:08,840 --> 03:04:14,840
So I don't know you want to call it but some of the original tenets of philoplane was basically like

1949
03:04:14,840 --> 03:04:18,840
It should always be either neutral or pa or real I mean

1950
03:04:18,840 --> 03:04:24,840
The philoplane was basically like it should always be either neutral or pa or profitable as much as possible

1951
03:04:24,840 --> 03:04:36,840
Oh, yeah, you better believe it It needs to be as independent and and self-reliant as possible all these other types of things all of those pillars that we initially laid out

1952
03:04:36,840 --> 03:04:40,840
Strongly resist explosive growth

1953
03:04:40,840 --> 03:04:46,840
You how do you how do you how do you build to scale when you can't out hire your profitability?

1954
03:04:46,840 --> 03:04:52,840
Yeah, it's like it's we we set up the pillars to be the least silicon valley company possible

1955
03:04:52,840 --> 03:05:00,840
We really did while still making a software tool. So the team's like tiny yeah and incredible by the way

1956
03:05:00,840 --> 03:05:06,840
Yes, the fact that it exists at all at the size of the team is like fascinating

1957
03:05:06,840 --> 03:05:12,840
And I've had long conversations with people that have talked to me about how it actually doesn't make any sense and I'm like well

1958
03:05:12,840 --> 03:05:16,840
It is a thing. So I don't know what to tell you

1959
03:05:16,840 --> 03:05:20,840
Gibbarim says their platform website is a Vimeo website with a dropout skin

1960
03:05:20,840 --> 03:05:24,840
They need active platform support rather than just a back end Interesting, okay

1961
03:05:24,840 --> 03:05:28,840
And Rysau says dropout allegedly surpassed a million subscribers recently

1962
03:05:28,840 --> 03:05:34,840
Yeah, like a whole B I mean, I don't see any reason why we couldn't scale to accommodate it

1963
03:05:34,840 --> 03:05:40,840
We could scale to that, yeah Like philoplane is it's small but not because it has to be

1964
03:05:40,840 --> 03:05:44,840
It's small because it keeps costs manageable

1965
03:05:44,840 --> 03:05:50,840
I don't know what features they have and stuff though Like I deep dove this a while ago but it's been a while

1966
03:05:50,840 --> 03:05:54,840
I would think they would have a lot more in the way of like analytics and tracking than we do

1967
03:05:54,840 --> 03:05:58,840
Like we're pretty loosey-goosey about that They can give subscriptions

1968
03:06:00,840 --> 03:06:04,840
Yeah, we should really have that

1969
03:06:04,840 --> 03:06:08,840
We should do that, yeah And also trial subscriptions and stuff

1970
03:06:08,840 --> 03:06:12,840
There's things we would need to do Whenever you get to a look

1971
03:06:12,840 --> 03:06:16,840
We're not ready this second I would have loved to be

1972
03:06:16,840 --> 03:06:20,840
I wish this happened a little bit later Because I would love to work with them

1973
03:06:20,840 --> 03:06:24,840
Not even because the million subscribers thing Obviously company had on, that's really cool

1974
03:06:24,840 --> 03:06:28,840
But like I just think like

1975
03:06:28,840 --> 03:06:32,840
Man, they're such a unique I find talking to creators at events fascinating

1976
03:06:32,840 --> 03:06:36,840
Like OpenSauce is one of my favorite events to go to

1977
03:06:36,840 --> 03:06:40,840
And just hang around with a huge variety of different creators all the time

1978
03:06:40,840 --> 03:06:44,840
And just talk about like what they're doing and how it's working And man is dropout unique

1979
03:06:44,840 --> 03:06:50,840
Like, my god Rysauce says they've been getting some flak for a low quality merch

1980
03:06:50,840 --> 03:06:54,840
Maybe you could help them there too I don't know, we're like

1981
03:06:54,840 --> 03:06:58,840
We're in this weird We're at this weird kind of inflection point

1982
03:06:58,840 --> 03:07:02,840
Where I think we kind of have to decide where we're going

1983
03:07:02,840 --> 03:07:06,840
We We're continuing to

1984
03:07:06,840 --> 03:07:10,840
Scale the way that we used to Years ago

1985
03:07:10,840 --> 03:07:14,840
Just on our own And we're not really

1986
03:07:14,840 --> 03:07:18,840
It would require a large investment

1987
03:07:18,840 --> 03:07:22,840
And a huge leap of faith To become

1988
03:07:22,840 --> 03:07:26,840
Like a service, a creator services company

1989
03:07:26,840 --> 03:07:30,840
In the way that I think you guys are kind of Envisioning as a future for

1990
03:07:30,840 --> 03:07:34,840
For LMG CW

1991
03:07:34,840 --> 03:07:38,840
Floatplane And

1992
03:07:48,840 --> 03:07:52,840
It's not an easy decision Right, because I've gotten

1993
03:07:52,840 --> 03:07:56,840
Pretty comfortable Do I want to

1994
03:07:56,840 --> 03:08:00,840
Bed it all again Do I want to convince my wife

1995
03:08:00,840 --> 03:08:04,840
To bed it all again For what?

1996
03:08:08,840 --> 03:08:12,840
I don't think it would change My

1997
03:08:12,840 --> 03:08:16,840
Quality of life If

1998
03:08:16,840 --> 03:08:20,840
LMG CWFP was A ten times larger company

1999
03:08:24,840 --> 03:08:28,840
And that's the thing like we could I don't know

2000
03:08:28,840 --> 03:08:32,840
I don't love the idea of bringing in venture capital To take a chunk

2001
03:08:32,840 --> 03:08:36,840
To inject the cash To build and scale this thing

2002
03:08:36,840 --> 03:08:40,840
Managing people is the thing I like least About my job

2003
03:08:40,840 --> 03:08:44,840
To be clear it's not that I don't like the people Actually I

2004
03:08:44,840 --> 03:08:48,840
Love the team that I get to work with Everyday that's one of the most privileged

2005
03:08:48,840 --> 03:08:52,840
Things about my life actually Turns out managing people is not

2006
03:08:52,840 --> 03:08:56,840
Hanging out with people So lean

2007
03:08:58,840 --> 03:09:02,840
I hate doing that And nothing that I can

2008
03:09:02,840 --> 03:09:06,840
Yeah, I don't know Hyobiz as a company I worked for

2009
03:09:06,840 --> 03:09:10,840
I hit about 60 employees and stopped growing And it worked well

2010
03:09:10,840 --> 03:09:14,840
I don't think chasing more and more is always the best I really liked working there, yeah

2011
03:09:14,840 --> 03:09:18,840
But I bet you outgrew it So

2012
03:09:18,840 --> 03:09:22,840
That's another thing, there's never a perfect answer There's people on the team that will

2013
03:09:22,840 --> 03:09:26,840
Not want to grow I mean I've

2014
03:09:26,840 --> 03:09:30,840
Been rather outspoken About not having wanted to grow

2015
03:09:30,840 --> 03:09:34,840
And then I think we've felt the pain of that growth

2016
03:09:34,840 --> 03:09:38,840
We've also reaped the benefits Of that growth, it's not a simple answer

2017
03:09:40,840 --> 03:09:44,840
But there's some people that won't stay If you do that forced growth

2018
03:09:44,840 --> 03:09:48,840
And there's people that won't stay if you don't Yeah, so it's like

2019
03:09:48,840 --> 03:09:52,840
Steve and Jay asks have you ever thought of Putting CW outside of the merch space

2020
03:09:52,840 --> 03:09:56,840
Not that we call it merch anymore You have such quality products

2021
03:09:56,840 --> 03:10:00,840
I just bought a bunch of the plain shirts And when they arrived my thoughts were like

2022
03:10:00,840 --> 03:10:04,840
Why aren't these just a product And they are from our point of view

2023
03:10:04,840 --> 03:10:08,840
And yeah we'd love to But it's not that simple

2024
03:10:10,840 --> 03:10:14,840
Like from a logistic standpoint From an economic standpoint

2025
03:10:16,840 --> 03:10:20,840
Like you'd be Like on paper, right?

2026
03:10:20,840 --> 03:10:23,840
It seems simple Luke

2027
03:10:23,840 --> 03:10:26,840
Luke underscore Laffer Yeah

2028
03:10:26,840 --> 03:10:29,840

Shirt from LTT Store and he goes oh Sorry who makes this and

2033
03:10:45,840 --> 03:10:48,840
Do the labels say CW yet or do they say LTT still? It looks like it does

2034
03:10:51,840 --> 03:10:54,840
Yes Yeah so he sees this label and he goes oh

2035
03:10:54,840 --> 03:10:59,840
Wow creator warehouse I'm a creator And I wear things and I'm in a house

I'd love for my My Luke Laffer

2038
03:11:07,840 --> 03:11:11,840
I'm gonna make a burb shirt And it's just gonna be a budgie on the front

2039
03:11:11,840 --> 03:11:15,840
And the budgie is gonna be looking like this And it's just gonna be thinking

2040
03:11:15,840 --> 03:11:19,840
It's gonna have a thought bubble and it's gonna be like burb It's gonna be like war

2041
03:11:19,840 --> 03:11:22,840
Sure Do you know what? Love it

2042
03:11:22,840 --> 03:11:26,840
Burb war Burb war shirt And yeah yeah 10 of 10

2043
03:11:26,840 --> 03:11:29,840
Jeremy says I would buy One sale

2044
03:11:29,840 --> 03:11:32,840
Okay Yes Now what?

2045
03:11:34,840 --> 03:11:39,840
Luke has this idea He has this shirt that he's like this is pretty cool

2046
03:11:39,840 --> 03:11:42,840
How do we get that graphic on the shirt?

2047
03:11:42,840 --> 03:11:45,840
How do we get it onto a website where you will buy it?

2048
03:11:45,840 --> 03:11:49,840
How do we manage Luke's exposure to this inventory?

2049
03:11:49,840 --> 03:11:55,840
I don't want any exposure No he doesn't How do we manage the lead times of the inventory that we will

2050
03:11:55,840 --> 03:11:58,840
I guess we what we have to carry now

2051
03:11:58,840 --> 03:12:02,840
So that he has blank shirts for him to print bourbon once in a while

2052
03:12:02,840 --> 03:12:08,840
Whenever he feels like it What will be the minimum print quantities for the print shop that we work with

2053
03:12:08,840 --> 03:12:13,840
We don't own our own print shop We work with the local company and then there's another print shop

2054
03:12:13,840 --> 03:12:17,840
In the states that we work on next to our US US 3PL

2055
03:12:17,840 --> 03:12:21,840
That's gonna be helping us out in the near future They're actually some really nice prints recently

2056
03:12:21,840 --> 03:12:24,840
I'm gonna be the chat Just print on demand dummy

2057
03:12:24,840 --> 03:12:27,840
Yeah okay who Who will do it

2058
03:12:27,840 --> 03:12:30,840
What will be the costs of that Times

2059
03:12:31,840 --> 03:12:35,840
Yeah Like silk screening is way more cost effective over a certain quantity

2060
03:12:35,840 --> 03:12:38,840
And print on demand direct to garment printing

2061
03:12:38,840 --> 03:12:41,840
Is way more cost effective for very low quantities

2062
03:12:41,840 --> 03:12:44,840
But these are gonna be really expensive shirts And that's just

2063
03:12:44,840 --> 03:12:48,840
Oh I meant like lead times Like how long will it take you to get the shirt

2064
03:12:48,840 --> 03:12:51,840
Oh yeah oh dude It'll take Way longer

2065
03:12:51,840 --> 03:12:52,840
Take a minute

2066
03:12:54,840 --> 03:12:57,840
It's hurly time says just open your own print shop

2067
03:12:57,840 --> 03:13:04,840
I mean yeah if I had a casual I think the last time we looked into it is around $400,000 to $600,000 worth of equipment

2068
03:13:04,840 --> 03:13:08,840
Plus we need to space If I and people here are gonna be managing it

2069
03:13:08,840 --> 03:13:13,840
It's gonna need to be a space around here Which is money

2070
03:13:16,840 --> 03:13:21,840
Staff like nothing is that simple

2071
03:13:23,840 --> 03:13:27,840
How will we make sure that the customers that are buying from Luke

2072
03:13:27,840 --> 03:13:30,840
All paid the taxes correctly

2073
03:13:30,840 --> 03:13:34,840
And all the like customs and whatever nonsense on their shipment

2074
03:13:34,840 --> 03:13:37,840
And we make sure that are we handling Luke's accounting now

2075
03:13:37,840 --> 03:13:41,840
Will he remit all of those correctly and properly

2076
03:13:41,840 --> 03:13:46,840
Is that our responsibility or is that his There's also like Wanshoe Bingo said print to order is the only real solution

2077
03:13:46,840 --> 03:13:50,840
Have a three to five week time on all orders Like yeah I'm sorry

2078
03:13:50,840 --> 03:13:53,840
I don't know if I want the shirt that I just bought to show up in two months

2079
03:13:53,840 --> 03:13:56,840
Like Huh

2080
03:13:56,840 --> 03:14:00,840
I uh That's always been really frustrating for me about print to order stuff

2081
03:14:00,840 --> 03:14:05,840
Is like I don't know Am I a spoiled I have it now dopamine machine

2082
03:14:05,840 --> 03:14:07,840
Maybe But

2083
03:14:08,840 --> 03:14:11,840
Like five weeks lead time I'm assuming that's just production

2084
03:14:11,840 --> 03:14:13,840
And then they actually have to ship it and stuff like I

2085
03:14:14,840 --> 03:14:16,840
That's a really long time to wait

2086
03:14:18,840 --> 03:14:22,840
Yeah and and to be clear These are all things that are solvable

2087
03:14:22,840 --> 03:14:25,840
So everyone who's suggesting solutions

2088
03:14:25,840 --> 03:14:29,840
You are a hundred percent right But the question is

2089
03:14:29,840 --> 03:14:36,840
Is that where we want to invest our time And is that where we want to invest our capital because we have a limited amount of both of those things

2090
03:14:36,840 --> 03:14:39,840
What if instead of doing any of that

2091
03:14:39,840 --> 03:14:42,840
I just made another video Every week

2092
03:14:43,840 --> 03:14:46,840
That'd be kind of cool Probably higher profit margins

2093
03:14:46,840 --> 03:14:49,840
And we have room for that And I already know how to do that

2094
03:14:49,840 --> 03:14:51,840
We have upload slots Yep

2095
03:14:52,840 --> 03:14:57,840
Or we just Make another really cool product for LTT Store

2096
03:14:57,840 --> 03:15:00,840
And then we don't have to split margin with another creator

2097
03:15:00,840 --> 03:15:02,840
We do another podcast

2098
03:15:03,840 --> 03:15:06,840
Yeah we'll do the white dudes with facial hair podcast

2099
03:15:06,840 --> 03:15:09,840
There isn't enough white dudes with facial hair

2100
03:15:09,840 --> 03:15:12,840
Podcasts You're right We should add another one

2101
03:15:12,840 --> 03:15:16,840
You're a hundred percent right That's what the market needs The market is asking for us

2102
03:15:16,840 --> 03:15:19,840
I agree with you so completely that like

2103
03:15:19,840 --> 03:15:22,840
If I agreed with you any more we'd probably start beating each other off

2104
03:15:23,840 --> 03:15:26,840
We need more white dudes with facial hair circle jerking

2105
03:15:27,840 --> 03:15:31,840
In the podcast space Maybe we could

2106
03:15:31,840 --> 03:15:34,840
We could innovate by having three white dudes Yeah

2107
03:15:34,840 --> 03:15:37,840
I mean we could get another chair I could sit in the corner Yeah

2108
03:15:37,840 --> 03:15:40,840
Well no you can't be in the corner Because we'd have to be in a circle Obviously

2109
03:15:40,840 --> 03:15:44,840
It's just physics Dan Yeah but I mean technically like a triangle

2110
03:15:44,840 --> 03:15:47,840
Fits into a circle Oh he wants a cock chair

2111
03:15:47,840 --> 03:15:49,840
Thanks Dan Yeah

2112
03:15:50,840 --> 03:15:52,840
Didn't get it Didn't get it

2113
03:15:55,840 --> 03:15:57,840
That's okay I got more cocks for you later

2114
03:16:00,840 --> 03:16:03,840
Ugh Anyways

2115
03:16:03,840 --> 03:16:05,840
Yeah I mean

2116
03:16:06,840 --> 03:16:10,840
I mean we had a conversation about like how cool it would be to

2117
03:16:11,840 --> 03:16:14,840
Be the back end for Dropout like a month ago

2118
03:16:14,840 --> 03:16:18,840
In like a Floatplane staff call And everybody was like yeah sick also

2119
03:16:19,840 --> 03:16:22,840
Not quite ready for that right now But like that would be sick

2120
03:16:23,840 --> 03:16:26,840
We want to focus on our app We want to actually get a TV app out there

2121
03:16:26,840 --> 03:16:30,840
Like we're not blind to the people To the things that people have been asking for

2122
03:16:30,840 --> 03:16:35,840
We want to get those things figured out We've been having some trouble with our app

2123
03:16:35,840 --> 03:16:38,840
Where there's a new head of

2124
03:16:39,840 --> 03:16:42,840
Did I talk about that? I don't name them

2125
03:16:42,840 --> 03:16:45,840
But I can say that it exists The new role that was hired

2126
03:16:45,840 --> 03:16:49,840
Go for it now There's a new head of HR in here And I've already talked to them about

2127
03:16:49,840 --> 03:16:52,840
Hiring for app dev for Floatplane

2128
03:16:52,840 --> 03:16:56,840
Like it's we want to figure that out If that's figured out though

2129
03:16:56,840 --> 03:17:00,840
There isn't like a ton left

2130
03:17:00,840 --> 03:17:04,840
Like we're not ready But we're not far from being ready

2131
03:17:04,840 --> 03:17:07,840
And we spent like a solid like two years

2132
03:17:07,840 --> 03:17:10,840
You know dealing with a bunch of the Like early days tech debt and stuff

2133
03:17:10,840 --> 03:17:13,840
To the point where we're pretty modern

2134
03:17:13,840 --> 03:17:16,840
In terms of like the tech stack We're pretty scalable

2135
03:17:16,840 --> 03:17:19,840
The team like I said is super smart

2136
03:17:19,840 --> 03:17:23,840
And I think would be like ready for a challenge

2137
03:17:23,840 --> 03:17:26,840
As long as they're as they're resourced appropriately

2138
03:17:26,840 --> 03:17:29,840
Like I'm We're just small

2139
03:17:29,840 --> 03:17:33,840
Yeah it's small Yeah We have one more topic

2140
03:17:33,840 --> 03:17:37,840
By the way David's answer for what was the last Relevant Ubisoft game is

2141
03:17:37,840 --> 03:17:41,840
He thinks other than 2023's Principles of the Lost Crown

2142
03:17:41,840 --> 03:17:44,840
Which was great And then the team behind it was disbanded

2143
03:17:44,840 --> 03:17:47,840
The last great or majorly relevant Ubisoft game in his opinion is

2144
03:17:47,840 --> 03:17:50,840
Assassin's Creed Odyssey back in 2018

2145
03:17:50,840 --> 03:17:54,840
Which is rough Assassin's Creed Odyssey was sick

2146
03:17:54,840 --> 03:17:58,840
And in my opinion underrated Last topic for today

2147
03:17:58,840 --> 03:18:01,840
New leaks show NVIDIA's N1X gaming laptops

2148
03:18:01,840 --> 03:18:06,840
Are reportedly set to debut this quarter With N2 on its way for 2027

2149
03:18:06,840 --> 03:18:10,840
A new Digitimes report says that NVIDIA's N1X Windows on ARM laptop chip

2150
03:18:10,840 --> 03:18:14,840
Is back on the internal roadmap With a Q1 2026 consumer launch

2151
03:18:14,840 --> 03:18:18,840
Followed by three more variants in Q2 Likely aimed at the enterprise

2152
03:18:18,840 --> 03:18:22,840
This lines up with reports of an unreleased ARM based N1X CPU being spotted

2153
03:18:22,840 --> 03:18:26,840
In a shipping manifest for an unnamed Dell laptop

2154
03:18:26,840 --> 03:18:30,840
N1 and N1X is Confirmed to be the same silicon used

2155
03:18:30,840 --> 03:18:34,840
In the DGX Spark NVIDIA's AI workstation That kind of looks like a Mac Mini on steroids

2156
03:18:34,840 --> 03:18:38,840
Considering the sources say that The next gen N2 series is already on

2157
03:18:38,840 --> 03:18:42,840
Its way for your... Q3 2027

2158
03:18:42,840 --> 03:18:46,840
It seems a little strange that N1 wasn't Even mentioned at CES 2026

2159
03:18:46,840 --> 03:18:50,840
I had a little off the record Conversation with a fellow

2160
03:18:50,840 --> 03:18:54,840
Tech Journalism bro

2161
03:18:54,840 --> 03:18:58,840
That I respect a lot I'm not going to name him

2162
03:18:58,840 --> 03:19:02,840
Because I don't know if he was at Liberty To talk about any of this

2163
03:19:02,840 --> 03:19:06,840
But basically apparently This

2164
03:19:06,840 --> 03:19:10,840
Silicon has been an absolute cluster Bomb over at NVIDIA

2165
03:19:10,840 --> 03:19:14,840
And None of the

2166
03:19:14,840 --> 03:19:18,840
None of the external Unimpressedness with the DGX

2167
03:19:18,840 --> 03:19:22,840
Spark was a major surprise To my bro

2168
03:19:22,840 --> 03:19:26,840
I remember Carmack Pretty much the first thing he said about it was

2169
03:19:26,840 --> 03:19:30,840
Does this thing overheat? Something like that

2170
03:19:30,840 --> 03:19:34,840
That was a pretty epic burn Yeah, so DGX

2171
03:19:34,840 --> 03:19:38,840
Spark has Not been quite as impressive

2172
03:19:38,840 --> 03:19:42,840
And these ARM on Windows

2173
03:19:42,840 --> 03:19:46,840
Gaming laptops have been The first time they were supposed to launch was

2174
03:19:46,840 --> 03:19:50,840
Like CES 2025 Or was it Computex before that?

2175
03:19:50,840 --> 03:19:54,840
I can't remember the first time they were supposed to launch But they've been punted down the road

2176
03:19:54,840 --> 03:19:58,840
M-m-multiple Times at this point

2177
03:20:00,840 --> 03:20:04,840
Lullenverse says DGX Spark is great for concurrency Lol

2178
03:20:04,840 --> 03:20:06,840
Well, there you go

2179
03:20:08,840 --> 03:20:12,840
I think it's time for After Dark Should we do this thing?

2180
03:20:12,840 --> 03:20:14,840
Wow, you guys are loving the Cleanup Wizard merch

2181
03:20:16,840 --> 03:20:18,840
Products!

2182
03:20:20,840 --> 03:20:22,840
Got em

2183
03:20:24,840 --> 03:20:26,840
Yeah, Cleanup Wizard t-shirt is killing it

2184
03:20:28,840 --> 03:20:32,840
A lot of people picking up Linus Cat Tips pins Pins are great

2185
03:20:32,840 --> 03:20:36,840
They are, they're so cute I requested a couple of the

2186
03:20:36,840 --> 03:20:40,840
Mouse pads as well For a friend of mine

2187
03:20:40,840 --> 03:20:44,840
I might still want to Nice

2188
03:20:44,840 --> 03:20:48,840
Talking of mats Hey DLL, question for Linus

2189
03:20:48,840 --> 03:20:52,840
Will the mod mat have ESD protection? If so, what are you using to test it?

2190
03:20:52,840 --> 03:20:56,840
Yes, and I'm using Tatiana to test it

2191
03:20:58,840 --> 03:21:02,840
Also, I think the CW Engineering team Was involved in that as well

2192
03:21:04,840 --> 03:21:08,840
Linus, how often should one paint The walls of their home to maintain it for selling later on?

2193
03:21:08,840 --> 03:21:12,840
And are there any renovations That provide a lot of value to a house

2194
03:21:12,840 --> 03:21:16,840
Buyer Mom renovating house right now

2195
03:21:16,840 --> 03:21:20,840
So this is a funny thing, right? Because

2196
03:21:20,840 --> 03:21:24,840
There's a lot of different There's a lot to unpack here

2197
03:21:24,840 --> 03:21:28,840
So many people Wait until the moment that they're moving out of their home

2198
03:21:28,840 --> 03:21:32,840
To freshen it up for sale And

2199
03:21:32,840 --> 03:21:36,840
I have to imagine that people do this Because it's a tried and true

2200
03:21:36,840 --> 03:21:40,840
Strategy to maximize the value of your home I have to assume that

2201
03:21:40,840 --> 03:21:42,840
I don't know that for sure

2202
03:21:44,840 --> 03:21:48,840
And if it was me And I was shopping for a house

2203
03:21:48,840 --> 03:21:52,840
I would actually much rather they Didn't paint it

2204
03:21:52,840 --> 03:21:56,840
I would actually much rather They had, as I walk into

2205
03:21:56,840 --> 03:22:00,840
This house with scuffs And dings everywhere on the walls

2206
03:22:00,840 --> 03:22:04,840
One of those paint chip books And it just included fresh paint

2207
03:22:04,840 --> 03:22:08,840
Because then I could pick the color Which would obviously

2208
03:22:08,840 --> 03:22:12,840
Be more likely to be a color I wanted Oh wait, interesting

2209
03:22:12,840 --> 03:22:16,840
So you're saying like we will paint it for you Before you even get the home

2210
03:22:16,840 --> 03:22:20,840
Because I'm paying for it anyway So I might as well get a color that I actually want

2211
03:22:20,840 --> 03:22:24,840
Nope, you get white I think that painting a house

2212
03:22:24,840 --> 03:22:28,840
Right before you sell it Is causing an epidemic of blandness

2213
03:22:28,840 --> 03:22:32,840
Yes Because resale white is the only color

2214
03:22:32,840 --> 03:22:36,840
That's going to want to paint on it To make it look fresh and open

2215
03:22:36,840 --> 03:22:40,840
And bright And as soon as you move into a new home

2216
03:22:40,840 --> 03:22:44,840
And I've done this That's been freshly painted

2217
03:22:44,840 --> 03:22:48,840
You kind of go well It was just painted

2218
03:22:48,840 --> 03:22:52,840
I'd be an idiot for painting it now I'll do it later

2219
03:22:52,840 --> 03:22:56,840
You're never going to do it until finally You move out having spent the last 10 years of your life

2220
03:22:56,840 --> 03:23:00,840
Living in like dinged Dented

2221
03:23:00,840 --> 03:23:04,840
And only to go Oh wow man, this place looks so great

2222
03:23:04,840 --> 03:23:08,840
I wonder if we should have just lived here for longer Maybe we should have just

2223
03:23:08,840 --> 03:23:12,840
Spent money on the house At a time when we would be the ones to enjoy it

2224
03:23:12,840 --> 03:23:16,840
Instead of these new people who are moving in And they don't even like that color

2225
03:23:18,840 --> 03:23:22,840
Yeah Nice

2226
03:23:24,840 --> 03:23:28,840
I'd say the most important thing In terms of what I'm looking for when I shop for a home

2227
03:23:28,840 --> 03:23:32,840
Is that I'm not going to suffer From like death by a thousand cuts

2228
03:23:32,840 --> 03:23:36,840
But I don't know that that's the norm Like I'm looking for

2229
03:23:36,840 --> 03:23:40,840
You know, hey, is this a place that looks like They didn't just slap a coat of paint on it

2230
03:23:40,840 --> 03:23:44,840
Oh my god, sorry I saw a Reddit thread that

2231
03:23:44,840 --> 03:23:48,840
I think is actually a brilliant idea They said that you should get

2232
03:23:48,840 --> 03:23:52,840
Electro Boom out to come check out the tech house I did see that

2233
03:23:52,840 --> 03:23:56,840
I don't know that another video like going through it Again would add a ton of value

2234
03:23:56,840 --> 03:24:00,840
But I think with him it would be frickin' sick Alkins, I'm considering it

2235
03:24:00,840 --> 03:24:04,840
Oh, I think it would be cool Very cool

2236
03:24:04,840 --> 03:24:08,840
Love Mehdi, always love collaborating with Mehdi He's awesome

2237
03:24:08,840 --> 03:24:12,840
He is a walking content machine And he's such a nice guy

2238
03:24:12,840 --> 03:24:16,840
Just like the most genuine guy You guys

2239
03:24:16,840 --> 03:24:18,840
Love Mehdi

2240
03:24:20,840 --> 03:24:24,840
What happened to the Linus Does Vibe Coding video? It's coming

2241
03:24:24,840 --> 03:24:28,840
Good question I actually don't know

2242
03:24:28,840 --> 03:24:32,840
At some point It will happen

2243
03:24:32,840 --> 03:24:36,840
Our writers have a lot of Balls

2244
03:24:36,840 --> 03:24:40,840
Predominantly male department They do

2245
03:24:40,840 --> 03:24:44,840
And they gotta juggle them Sometimes you gotta

2246
03:24:44,840 --> 03:24:48,840
How many balls did they have? Terrible, stop

2247
03:24:48,840 --> 03:24:52,840
Don't take the paint Move on

2248
03:24:52,840 --> 03:24:56,840
Hey Hey, LLD

2249
03:24:56,840 --> 03:24:58,840
You do a seated floss

2250
03:25:00,840 --> 03:25:04,840
What is he even doing? What is he even happening?

2251
03:25:04,840 --> 03:25:08,840
What is happening? He's planking

2252
03:25:08,840 --> 03:25:12,840
This man's planking I genuinely did not see that coming

2253
03:25:14,840 --> 03:25:16,840
They never do

2254
03:25:18,840 --> 03:25:22,840
Hey LLD Linus, since Final Fantasy Tactics

2255
03:25:22,840 --> 03:25:26,840
Remaster has sold a million copies Do you think there is hope for a sequel

2256
03:25:26,840 --> 03:25:30,840
Or a prequel to it? Maybe pick up Orlando's story

2257
03:25:30,840 --> 03:25:34,840
And would you play it? I'd play the crap out of it

2258
03:25:34,840 --> 03:25:38,840
I mean the fact that it took this long For them to

2259
03:25:38,840 --> 03:25:42,840
It's good, but like Not super high effort

2260
03:25:42,840 --> 03:25:46,840
Remaster it is remarkable And gives me no faith

2261
03:25:46,840 --> 03:25:50,840
But also hey, they sold a million Friggin' copies, so that seems like

2262
03:25:50,840 --> 03:25:54,840
For a financially motivated company Like Square Enix

2263
03:25:54,840 --> 03:25:58,840
Like hello Maybe you should do more of this

2264
03:25:58,840 --> 03:26:02,840
Kind of signal, but maybe they'll just completely ignore I mean don't

2265
03:26:02,840 --> 03:26:06,840
Yeah, that's in Square Enix The one that has that activist investor

2266
03:26:06,840 --> 03:26:10,840
That's like hey, you guys are being really stupid And like you actually need to stop being stupid now

2267
03:26:10,840 --> 03:26:12,840
So maybe they'll listen, maybe they won't

2268
03:26:14,840 --> 03:26:18,840
Maybe Ubisoft needs one of those They do, won't be me

2269
03:26:18,840 --> 03:26:22,840
I mean I probably afford to buy A significant chunk of the company at that share price

2270
03:26:22,840 --> 03:26:26,840
But would I want it And to be clear, no I can't

2271
03:26:26,840 --> 03:26:30,840
That is, is joke Ubisoft is still worth

2272
03:26:30,840 --> 03:26:34,840
So, so, so much more than I If you own world or IP, we could do some cool stuff

2273
03:26:36,840 --> 03:26:40,840
Ubisoft Total value

2274
03:26:40,840 --> 03:26:44,840
What's their total value? The bar's pretty low, Luke

2275
03:26:44,840 --> 03:26:48,840
Exactly Yeah, so good

2276
03:26:48,840 --> 03:26:52,840
Linus Studios Sure

2277
03:26:52,840 --> 03:26:56,840
Would not call it that I would not call a company my name again

2278
03:26:56,840 --> 03:27:00,840
If you had Ubisoft you could probably employ Enough people

2279
03:27:00,840 --> 03:27:04,840
That it would make sense to do some form of like Stop it

2280
03:27:04,840 --> 03:27:08,840
Housing development Okay, Dan, next one, I've given you

2281
03:27:08,840 --> 03:27:12,840
Linus Town maybe I have given you frameworks in the past

2282
03:27:12,840 --> 03:27:16,840
Or just that Linus And he ignored me

2283
03:27:16,840 --> 03:27:18,840
Ubisoft

2284
03:27:20,840 --> 03:27:22,840
So what, we do all X-rated games?

2285
03:27:24,840 --> 03:27:28,840
You'd make some money, dude Oh man

2286
03:27:28,840 --> 03:27:32,840
Dang That's good

2287
03:27:32,840 --> 03:27:36,840
Hi, DLL, question for Linus Which LDD merch item do you think

2288
03:27:36,840 --> 03:27:40,840
Didn't get as much love as it deserved? I love some of your one-off products

2289
03:27:40,840 --> 03:27:44,840
That was so cute I saw mine the other day because Yvonne and I

2290
03:27:44,840 --> 03:27:48,840
Were getting ready for the ski season And we were sorting our outdoor wear

2291
03:27:48,840 --> 03:27:52,840
And I was like, the Ramsticks scarf That's

2292
03:27:52,840 --> 03:27:56,840
Well, probably a little depressing to look at For people these days since it's the only RAM

2293
03:27:56,840 --> 03:28:00,840
That they might be able to afford But it was so cute

2294
03:28:00,840 --> 03:28:04,840
It was so cute What didn't get as much love as it deserved?

2295
03:28:04,840 --> 03:28:08,840
I'm going to answer this even though it was specifically asked to Linus But that

2296
03:28:08,840 --> 03:28:12,840
3D printed down jacket Oh, the 3D town

2297
03:28:12,840 --> 03:28:16,840
Is genuinely like an incredible jacket And

2298
03:28:16,840 --> 03:28:20,840
I think it was like too expensive For a product that

2299
03:28:20,840 --> 03:28:24,840
People don't get to try on first Because everyone that actually tried

2300
03:28:24,840 --> 03:28:28,840
That jacket on was like, oh This is very nice

2301
03:28:28,840 --> 03:28:32,840
I love that jacket The Dropout hoodie

2302
03:28:32,840 --> 03:28:36,840
The Dropout hoodie is legit I love this hoodie

2303
03:28:36,840 --> 03:28:40,840
They don't let me wear it Because it's not for sale anymore

2304
03:28:40,840 --> 03:28:44,840
In any Sizes that matter

2305
03:28:44,840 --> 03:28:48,840
But I freaking Love that hoodie

2306
03:28:48,840 --> 03:28:52,840
And I love the idea behind it The multiple layers

2307
03:28:52,840 --> 03:28:56,840
Of the meaning, how it looks like University or college

2308
03:28:56,840 --> 03:29:00,840
Hoodie, but I didn't graduate So it just is LTT

2309
03:29:00,840 --> 03:29:04,840
And it's like I don't know, I love it

2310
03:29:04,840 --> 03:29:08,840
So just like in the tech space That whole

2311
03:29:08,840 --> 03:29:12,840
Dropout but be successful anyway Thing is such a thing

2312
03:29:12,840 --> 03:29:16,840
And also LTT is Sure, entertaining, but also

2313
03:29:16,840 --> 03:29:20,840
This may surprise Some people on some corners of the internet

2314
03:29:20,840 --> 03:29:24,840
But we do actually teach people stuff It's edumacational

2315
03:29:24,840 --> 03:29:28,840
It's definitely edumacational So I just loved all the layers of

2316
03:29:28,840 --> 03:29:32,840
LTT school of hard knocks Exactly charge nuclei

2317
03:29:32,840 --> 03:29:36,840
Hoodie and it was also just such a quality Garment, I love the fit

2318
03:29:36,840 --> 03:29:40,840
And the feel of it And I just

2319
03:29:40,840 --> 03:29:44,840
Yup Wanted that to do better

2320
03:29:44,840 --> 03:29:48,840
We ended up having to liquidate a lot of them Which hurt because it was

2321
03:29:48,840 --> 03:29:52,840
Just such a good product These are like burn them rather than like melt them

2322
03:29:54,840 --> 03:29:58,840
Nice Hi Dilo No, no, you gotta do it for yourself too

2323
03:29:58,840 --> 03:30:02,840
It's low quality ding Get out of here

2324
03:30:02,840 --> 03:30:06,840
Hi Dilo, what is the new Completely new hardware that you are excited about

2325
03:30:06,840 --> 03:30:10,840
That's not just an improvement On other hardware

2326
03:30:10,840 --> 03:30:14,840
For example, for smartphone For smartwatch

2327
03:30:14,840 --> 03:30:18,840
Is this asking us to like invent a device? I don't think so

2328
03:30:18,840 --> 03:30:22,840
I think this is like What is a new thing

2329
03:30:22,840 --> 03:30:26,840
Can you name a new thing? Kind of a Apple topic

2330
03:30:26,840 --> 03:30:30,840
I think the valve Steam frame

2331
03:30:30,840 --> 03:30:34,840
Is kind of a new product It is sort of

2332
03:30:34,840 --> 03:30:38,840
But it's like It's a stand alone headset

2333
03:30:38,840 --> 03:30:42,840
But also it's a It uses the onboard computer to do wireless streaming

2334
03:30:42,840 --> 03:30:46,840
Better than it's ever been done before For VR and it's a

2335
03:30:46,840 --> 03:30:50,840
It's a PC VR headset But it like

2336
03:30:50,840 --> 03:30:54,840
Has like really good quality And mobility

2337
03:30:54,840 --> 03:30:58,840
And you can also play like Windows x86 games on the ARM CPU

2338
03:30:58,840 --> 03:31:02,840
It's like Okay fine, it's an improvement

2339
03:31:02,840 --> 03:31:06,840
Yeah Because there's the first smartphone

2340
03:31:06,840 --> 03:31:10,840
First smartwatch Theoretically I'm still excited about smart glasses

2341
03:31:10,840 --> 03:31:14,840
But I just like Can't motivate myself to put a pair on

2342
03:31:14,840 --> 03:31:18,840
So I don't know how to reconcile If ASUS figures it out it makes some cool ones

2343
03:31:18,840 --> 03:31:22,840
That'll be kind of neat but ASUS on the software side though

2344
03:31:22,840 --> 03:31:26,840
Yeah, I kind of doubt it, sorry guys We've done some stuff that's been better than expected

2345
03:31:26,840 --> 03:31:30,840
Like their software on the ROG Ally is much better than I

2346
03:31:30,840 --> 03:31:34,840
Expected it to be Their overlay stuff, it just works

2347
03:31:34,840 --> 03:31:38,840
And from my understanding It's not that simple

2348
03:31:38,840 --> 03:31:42,840
I think if there's a robot that can do my laundry and do the dishes That would be huge

2349
03:31:44,840 --> 03:31:48,840
And not like fall over or smash things While doing so and not be

2350
03:31:48,840 --> 03:31:52,840
Not be remotely pirated Piloted, my goodness

2351
03:31:52,840 --> 03:31:56,840
That's also A fairly important one

2352
03:31:56,840 --> 03:32:00,840
I'd also really like it to not be Calling home about every single detail of my entire life

2353
03:32:00,840 --> 03:32:04,840
Including the layout of my house and where I am At all points in time

2354
03:32:04,840 --> 03:32:08,840
A home kit smart robot See, yes

2355
03:32:08,840 --> 03:32:12,840
It could turn off your lights For you, properly

2356
03:32:12,840 --> 03:32:16,840
Walking over to impressing the switch That is so smart switch with extra steps

2357
03:32:16,840 --> 03:32:20,840
That's so retro It's so vintage

2358
03:32:20,840 --> 03:32:24,840
Literal steps But yeah, if it's a home kit

2359
03:32:24,840 --> 03:32:28,840
I control it It doesn't phone home

2360
03:32:28,840 --> 03:32:32,840
Everything that ever happens And it's a robot that can do my laundry

2361
03:32:32,840 --> 03:32:36,840
Do my dishes and other various annoying things like that If we can take out the garbage, stuff like that

2362
03:32:36,840 --> 03:32:40,840
Huge You could ask it to set an alarm

2363
03:32:40,840 --> 03:32:44,840
And it would grab your phone And then just do that for you

2364
03:32:44,840 --> 03:32:48,840
See We just need

2365
03:32:48,840 --> 03:32:52,840
Like More Boston Dynamics robots

2366
03:32:52,840 --> 03:32:56,840
Because they can just do everything that the things can This is where we're going

2367
03:32:56,840 --> 03:33:00,840
How much do you think the robot that isn't just Adware is going to cost

2368
03:33:00,840 --> 03:33:04,840
And then everyone buys the one That's just spying on you

2369
03:33:04,840 --> 03:33:08,840
And serves you ads $25,000

2370
03:33:08,840 --> 03:33:12,840
There's no way, no shot, Luke I did cheap car

2371
03:33:12,840 --> 03:33:16,840
It's really, really hard to buy A non-smart TV right now

2372
03:33:16,840 --> 03:33:20,840
I'll put it I'll save that

2373
03:33:20,840 --> 03:33:24,840
That's the only way they reach these prices It'll probably be impossible to buy

2374
03:33:24,840 --> 03:33:28,840
A non Always internet connected smart home robot

2375
03:33:28,840 --> 03:33:32,840
But I would like it to be a thing Because I don't

2376
03:33:32,840 --> 03:33:36,840
Know if I can That's how you break it

2377
03:33:36,840 --> 03:33:40,840
So much fun though I was wondering why it was broken at that spot

2378
03:33:40,840 --> 03:33:44,840
Of all places There's no way I did that to

2379
03:33:44,840 --> 03:33:48,840
Or the chair, one of the two Then why isn't mine broken

2380
03:33:48,840 --> 03:33:50,840
Scale issue

2381
03:33:52,840 --> 03:33:56,840
Alright What do we got next time?

2382
03:33:56,840 --> 03:34:00,840
Oh yeah, my job Hey LOD, Luke

2383
03:34:00,840 --> 03:34:04,840
My wife wants to know how your Birds are

2384
03:34:04,840 --> 03:34:08,840
I don't, but she wears the pants Thanks for all the fun

2385
03:34:08,840 --> 03:34:12,840
We'll cover your ears, I'll talk directly to your wife I wouldn't let him do that

2386
03:34:12,840 --> 03:34:16,840
Especially don't let him make the chicken There's birds involved, get out man

2387
03:34:18,840 --> 03:34:22,840
They're doing alright You can sit on the chair in the corner

2388
03:34:22,840 --> 03:34:26,840
Yeah, we can be friends Yeah, they're doing good

2389
03:34:26,840 --> 03:34:30,840
Actually the One of them was recently sick again

2390
03:34:30,840 --> 03:34:34,840
But it was very very short lived Which is great

2391
03:34:34,840 --> 03:34:38,840
The bird or the sickness I can infer

2392
03:34:38,840 --> 03:34:42,840
I'd hope so But yeah, they're doing good

2393
03:34:42,840 --> 03:34:46,840
All three of them now For people that don't know that update

2394
03:34:46,840 --> 03:34:50,840
Which I think is a decent amount of people know that one But maybe not everyone

2395
03:34:50,840 --> 03:34:54,840
There's three birds now One which was

2396
03:34:54,840 --> 03:34:58,840
We had already purchased it From a breeder to be a buddy

2397
03:34:58,840 --> 03:35:02,840
For our previous bird and then our previous bird passed away So then the time window from having a bird

2398
03:35:02,840 --> 03:35:06,840
To having a bird again was really short Because there was a bird that we were already receiving

2399
03:35:06,840 --> 03:35:10,840
As we bought it We bought that bird a buddy

2400
03:35:10,840 --> 03:35:14,840
And then There was a bird that was out in the wild

2401
03:35:18,840 --> 03:35:22,840
Was in the park in Langley, right? No, it was in Richmond

2402
03:35:22,840 --> 03:35:26,840
But it was in a park And this would be the

2403
03:35:26,840 --> 03:35:30,840
Second bird that Emma recovered

2404
03:35:30,840 --> 03:35:34,840
But this one No one claimed it and we

2405
03:35:34,840 --> 03:35:38,840
Tried very hard to Scream from every rooftop possible

2406
03:35:38,840 --> 03:35:42,840
That we had this bird and no one ever claimed it We talked to our vet about it

2407
03:35:42,840 --> 03:35:46,840
And they said it was Fairly tell-tale situation

2408
03:35:46,840 --> 03:35:50,840
Of someone just kind of threw it out a window Because they didn't want it anymore

2409
03:35:50,840 --> 03:35:54,840
There was other reasons why they thought that And it did make sense

2410
03:35:54,840 --> 03:35:58,840
But I'm not going to go into all of that And now we just have third bird

2411
03:35:58,840 --> 03:36:02,840
But third bird is female bird And other two birds are boybirds

2412
03:36:02,840 --> 03:36:06,840
So birds Cannot mix

2413
03:36:06,840 --> 03:36:10,840
I don't know how they can necessarily tell They look pretty similar to me

2414
03:36:10,840 --> 03:36:14,840
But the second There is a female bird in vicinity of the boybirds

2415
03:36:14,840 --> 03:36:18,840
It is party time They are very excited

2416
03:36:18,840 --> 03:36:22,840
And go a little Nuts

2417
03:36:22,840 --> 03:36:26,840
So it is very obvious that we can't Necessarily let them all kind of

2418
03:36:26,840 --> 03:36:30,840
Hang out together too much So that adds some complications

2419
03:36:30,840 --> 03:36:34,840
But yeah anyways long story Birds are good

2420
03:36:34,840 --> 03:36:38,840
Follow-up Luke question You mentioned earlier that you are building out a

2421
03:36:38,840 --> 03:36:42,840
Home lab. What kind of things are you Thinking of setting up?

2422
03:36:42,840 --> 03:36:46,840
Dude I want to do lots of stuff A decent amount of this is just like

2423
03:36:46,840 --> 03:36:50,840
I feel like it is hyper overdue I want

2424
03:36:50,840 --> 03:36:54,840
To know more about the people on About what the people on my teams do

2425
03:36:54,840 --> 03:36:58,840
So some Of the goal is to use similar things

2426
03:36:58,840 --> 03:37:02,840
That we use here So I can get more experience

2427
03:37:02,840 --> 03:37:06,840
And have a better understanding of what they are talking about And the like

2428
03:37:06,840 --> 03:37:10,840
The issues that they run into And just things like that

2429
03:37:12,840 --> 03:37:16,840
Good keep going Just making adjustments

2430
03:37:16,840 --> 03:37:20,840
It is a why It is like a better this way

2431
03:37:20,840 --> 03:37:24,840
No one is not perfectly level though It is fine just relax I like it this way

2432
03:37:24,840 --> 03:37:28,840
Stop it It still works that is fine

2433
03:37:28,840 --> 03:37:32,840
They are both crossing They both have a high point

2434
03:37:32,840 --> 03:37:36,840
It is very nice I want to get a

2435
03:37:36,840 --> 03:37:40,840
Plex server up to Livestream home videos

2436
03:37:40,840 --> 03:37:44,840
To my family Sure

2437
03:37:44,840 --> 03:37:48,840
Yeah I would like to do some local LLM stuff

2438
03:37:48,840 --> 03:37:52,840
There is just a lot of things I want to do I feel like I am very overdue on

2439
03:37:52,840 --> 03:37:56,840
Really actually pushing Yeah

2440
03:37:57,840 --> 03:38:01,840
As a student and IT worker At a university

2441
03:38:01,840 --> 03:38:05,840
I have noticed that the newer generation Is less tech literate

2442
03:38:05,840 --> 03:38:09,840
Do you think The oversimplification

2443
03:38:09,840 --> 03:38:11,840
And hand holding has contributed to this issue

2444
03:38:14,840 --> 03:38:16,840
Hold on I have got something

2445
03:38:18,840 --> 03:38:22,840
Yeah I have got something

2446
03:38:22,840 --> 03:38:26,840
To share with you guys A great meme I came across

2447
03:38:26,840 --> 03:38:30,840
And sent to Yvonne Phone or tablets because

2448
03:38:30,840 --> 03:38:34,840
I heard like what is a file system For a lot of people

2449
03:38:34,840 --> 03:38:38,840
Because they are mostly interacting With like a phone

2450
03:38:38,840 --> 03:38:42,840
Or a tablet or an application They do not have to know

2451
03:38:42,840 --> 03:38:46,840
What is a D drive Or a C drive

2452
03:38:46,840 --> 03:38:50,840
What is a network share Okay Dan I just sent you

2453
03:38:50,840 --> 03:38:52,840
My favorite meme from the last week

2454
03:38:54,840 --> 03:38:58,840
I want a YouTube app on my computer Shut up pug boy

2455
03:38:58,840 --> 03:39:00,840
Get out

2456
03:39:03,840 --> 03:39:07,840
I actually do Why

I wish less things were just browser Here is Linus' favorite meme

2458
03:39:11,840 --> 03:39:13,840
Favorite meme of the week

2459
03:39:14,840 --> 03:39:18,840
I am training a zoomer kit To use the computer at work

2460
03:39:18,840 --> 03:39:22,840
And it is exactly like training a boomer There is exactly one generation

2461
03:39:22,840 --> 03:39:26,840
To rotate a PDF and there will never be another The knowledge dies with us

2462
03:39:26,840 --> 03:39:30,840
So good It is kind of true

2463
03:39:30,840 --> 03:39:34,840
Go jellyfin and swim upstream Yeah I don't know if I want to do plex

2464
03:39:34,840 --> 03:39:38,840
Or not but I want to do like Video, home video distribution

2465
03:39:38,840 --> 03:39:40,840

2466
03:39:42,840 --> 03:39:44,840
Yeah

2467
03:39:46,840 --> 03:39:50,840
Hi WAN.DLO Hold on I just want to jump in and say

2468
03:39:50,840 --> 03:39:54,840
Generally speaking our staff has actually been Really good

2469
03:39:54,840 --> 03:39:58,840
We have younger people on staff And there are absolutely

2470
03:39:58,840 --> 03:40:02,840
Zoomers and younger people Who are

2471
03:40:02,840 --> 03:40:06,840
Very capable technically I just want to throw that out there

2472
03:40:06,840 --> 03:40:10,840
That these generalizations are just generalizations They are not universally applicable

2473
03:40:10,840 --> 03:40:14,840
Okay carry on Very good

2474
03:40:14,840 --> 03:40:18,840
Hi WAN.DLO I am a high school chemistry teacher

2475
03:40:18,840 --> 03:40:22,840
The Green Brothers Have a bit of an empire with YouTube

2476
03:40:22,840 --> 03:40:26,840
Education content via Crash Course Do you have connections with them

2477
03:40:26,840 --> 03:40:30,840
Would love education focused collapse I don't think I've ever met either

2478
03:40:30,840 --> 03:40:34,840
The Green Brothers I admire

2479
03:40:34,840 --> 03:40:36,840
Them from a distance

2480
03:40:40,840 --> 03:40:44,840
One of the ways that I can find out Is just checking my inbox

2481
03:40:44,840 --> 03:40:48,840
No I have never Corresponded

2482
03:40:48,840 --> 03:40:50,840
With either of the Green Brothers

2483
03:41:00,840 --> 03:41:04,840
Downer maybe I should try and do that You never know unless you try right

2484
03:41:08,840 --> 03:41:10,840
Thanks Luke

2485
03:41:12,840 --> 03:41:16,840
Very deep Hi DLL

2486
03:41:16,840 --> 03:41:20,840
Question for Luke As a software developer I come across

2487
03:41:20,840 --> 03:41:24,840
Other developers who see Errors as something only

2488
03:41:24,840 --> 03:41:28,840
Others can solve Any tips on how to encourage them to see

2489
03:41:28,840 --> 03:41:32,840
Errors as opportunities to learn This was

2490
03:41:32,840 --> 03:41:36,840
A little bit confusing Any tips on no no I understand

2491
03:41:36,840 --> 03:41:40,840
I understand it too That's a tough one

2492
03:41:40,840 --> 03:41:44,840
Some people I don't know if you'll ever Get that through to them

2493
03:41:44,840 --> 03:41:48,840
I think if you are Leading or managing those people

2494
03:41:48,840 --> 03:41:52,840
I think you make it very clear That this is a required part of career progression

2495
03:41:52,840 --> 03:41:56,840
But to a certain degree That's just a performance issue

2496
03:41:56,840 --> 03:42:00,840
Some people will never resolve that And it will make their careers

2497
03:42:00,840 --> 03:42:04,840
Halt in progression And that's sometimes where people

2498
03:42:04,840 --> 03:42:08,840
Just sort of stop Because they can't get their minds around that

2499
03:42:08,840 --> 03:42:12,840
It's a very difficult Thing to have as a programmer

2500
03:42:14,840 --> 03:42:18,840
I find a lot of people That

2501
03:42:18,840 --> 03:42:22,840
No, that train of thought doesn't make it Make any sense

2502
03:42:22,840 --> 03:42:26,840
I think like Solving errors is a natural

2503
03:42:26,840 --> 03:42:30,840
Constant state of a software developer So if they can't do that

2504
03:42:30,840 --> 03:42:34,840
They're going to be hyper limited in their career And if you try to communicate to them

2505
03:42:34,840 --> 03:42:38,840
That to them, hopefully they absorb it And grow, I've seen this happen with people

2506
03:42:38,840 --> 03:42:42,840
It's not that it doesn't happen I have just also for sure

2507
03:42:42,840 --> 03:42:46,840
Seen it not happen with people And

2508
03:42:46,840 --> 03:42:50,840
You can't save them all So do what you can

2509
03:42:50,840 --> 03:42:54,840
But yeah, I think I would tie it Pretty directly into like, look

2510
03:42:54,840 --> 03:42:58,840
You will stop progressing If you don't figure this out

2511
03:42:58,840 --> 03:43:02,840
So you have to figure this out Apparently John Green said that I gave him a computer recommendation

2512
03:43:02,840 --> 03:43:06,840
I don't remember that But I recommend computers to a lot of people

2513
03:43:06,840 --> 03:43:10,840
So That would be a little embarrassing

2514
03:43:10,840 --> 03:43:14,840
It's like, oh yeah You like built a server for Santa Claus

2515
03:43:14,840 --> 03:43:18,840
You don't remember? Like, oh yeah, sorry Just slip my mind

2516
03:43:18,840 --> 03:43:22,840
How do you forget something like that? I don't know That's a big you'd have to be more specific moment

2517
03:43:22,840 --> 03:43:26,840
Yeah Like the villain is like

2518
03:43:26,840 --> 03:43:30,840
Or the protagonist in a movie Or whatever, it's like you killed my dad

2519
03:43:30,840 --> 03:43:34,840
And the villain's like you'd have to be more specific You recommended a computer

2520
03:43:34,840 --> 03:43:36,840
You'd have to be a lot more specific

2521
03:43:38,840 --> 03:43:42,840
So Are there programmers that just

2522
03:43:42,840 --> 03:43:46,840
Program and then don't fix It when it doesn't work?

2523
03:43:46,840 --> 03:43:50,840
Is that what this is talking about? You used a lot of software in your life Dan

2524
03:43:50,840 --> 03:43:54,840
Do you think there are programmers who just Program and don't make sure it works? That's what I was a little confused

2525
03:43:54,840 --> 03:43:58,840
Because it's like, okay we have Errors or like doesn't compile, well would you just

2526
03:43:58,840 --> 03:44:02,840
Haven't done your job then? No, it's like If they're struggling to accomplish something

2527
03:44:02,840 --> 03:44:06,840
They'll just give up Oh, yeah that's

2528
03:44:06,840 --> 03:44:10,840
So much worse I think that's the crux

2529
03:44:10,840 --> 03:44:14,840
This is how I'm interpreting it So they'll be like I mean problem hard

2530
03:44:14,840 --> 03:44:18,840
And then they'll try to just go to someone else And I mean sometimes

2531
03:44:18,840 --> 03:44:22,840
That might make sense We try to

2532
03:44:22,840 --> 03:44:26,840
Do a thing where like you should try to grind on it for a bit And try to solve it yourself, but at a certain point

2533
03:44:26,840 --> 03:44:30,840
You should seek help Because you're just kind of wasting time

2534
03:44:30,840 --> 03:44:34,840
You heard it here first, at a certain point You should seek help, Luke 2026

2535
03:44:34,840 --> 03:44:36,840
The extremely deep

2536
03:44:38,840 --> 03:44:42,840
But you should try to Solve it yourself

2537
03:44:42,840 --> 03:44:46,840
Not wrong words Do you see a need

2538
03:44:46,840 --> 03:44:50,840
For wireless TVs that they had at CES

2539
03:44:50,840 --> 03:44:54,840
Wires are still needed Regardless of what they say

2540
03:44:54,840 --> 03:44:58,840
Well you answered your own question didn't you This is kind of like

2541
03:44:58,840 --> 03:45:02,840
Okay, this is my favorite thing, hold on I'm just gonna search for

2542
03:45:02,840 --> 03:45:06,840
We're gonna go on a little journey together Are they like battery powered?

2543
03:45:06,840 --> 03:45:10,840
I'm gonna search for projector, what the hell are the Bigly brothers

2544
03:45:10,840 --> 03:45:14,840
Anyway, that doesn't matter The point is we're gonna go to like

2545
03:45:14,840 --> 03:45:18,840
A mainstream type of Projector brand

2546
03:45:18,840 --> 03:45:22,840
Seriously Okay, let's

2547
03:45:22,840 --> 03:45:26,840
Pick on LG

2548
03:45:26,840 --> 03:45:30,840
Cinebeam, okay Let's pick on LG Cinebeam

2549
03:45:30,840 --> 03:45:34,840
So I'm gonna click Shut up

2550
03:45:34,840 --> 03:45:38,840
Trying to use your Stupid website, okay

2551
03:45:38,840 --> 03:45:42,840
Let's click this thing Wow, what a great design

2552
03:45:42,840 --> 03:45:46,840
That I'd love to Look at

2553
03:45:46,840 --> 03:45:50,840
Wow, this is such a Oh wow, this is a shockingly honest

2554
03:45:50,840 --> 03:45:54,840
Deployment, except it also isn't Because where's this cord going

2555
03:45:54,840 --> 03:45:58,840
Where's this going This is, your couch is there

2556
03:45:58,840 --> 03:46:02,840
Like you're Completely ignoring the fact

2557
03:46:02,840 --> 03:46:06,840
Look at this This, it's not plugged in

2558
03:46:06,840 --> 03:46:10,840
In any Of these situations

2559
03:46:10,840 --> 03:46:14,840
It's also not one of those times In a position that you would actually want

2560
03:46:16,840 --> 03:46:20,840
Minimal Q design, right, but It's all bullshit unless

2561
03:46:20,840 --> 03:46:24,840
It actually runs wirelessly Which, as far as I can tell

2562
03:46:24,840 --> 03:46:28,840
It doesn't There are so many

2563
03:46:28,840 --> 03:46:32,840
They hide the cable behind a coffee machine A coffee thing

2564
03:46:32,840 --> 03:46:36,840
I don't drink coffee What are you talking about? That?

2565
03:46:36,840 --> 03:46:40,840
Oh yeah Behind what, is that like a battery bank?

2566
03:46:40,840 --> 03:46:44,840
So they show, yes, so it can Be used with a battery bank

2567
03:46:44,840 --> 03:46:48,840
But they don't even show the cable going into the battery bank But like, where is the

2568
03:46:48,840 --> 03:46:52,840
Where is the projector in this shot That's awesome

2569
03:46:52,840 --> 03:46:56,840
This is clearly just complete Horse shit

2570
03:46:56,840 --> 03:47:00,840
And so I have a very Similar issue

2571
03:47:00,840 --> 03:47:04,840
With whatever you were talking about Yes, wireless TVs

2572
03:47:04,840 --> 03:47:08,840
I have a very similar issue with wireless TVs As I have with this type of

2573
03:47:08,840 --> 03:47:12,840
Projector marketing, it's all fantasy It's all pie in the sky

2574
03:47:12,840 --> 03:47:16,840
What if everything was Well, it isn't fucking wireless

2575
03:47:16,840 --> 03:47:20,840
It's not wireless, so what are you even talking about I'm gonna play on my switch

2576
03:47:20,840 --> 03:47:24,840
Well, I'm gonna have to have power for my TV Because I definitely need that

2577
03:47:24,840 --> 03:47:28,840
I'm gonna have to have HDMI into some box Somewhere, because as far as I

2578
03:47:28,840 --> 03:47:32,840
Can tell, the switch doesn't have Magical, lala

2579
03:47:32,840 --> 03:47:36,840
Wireless Display transmission

2580
03:47:36,840 --> 03:47:40,840
I'm gonna have to have power for my switch So I'm gonna need a media console anyway

2581
03:47:40,840 --> 03:47:44,840
So I might as well just have one then Yeah

2582
03:47:44,840 --> 03:47:48,840
So basically they're stupid And I think they're stupid

2583
03:47:48,840 --> 03:47:52,840
I do Glan and Dinus I could totally see myself putting one in the tech

2584
03:47:52,840 --> 03:47:56,840
House though, just because we can Yeah, drill some walls

2585
03:47:56,840 --> 03:48:00,840
Drill some walls Hell yeah

2586
03:48:00,840 --> 03:48:04,840
I do Glan and Dinus Is there any tech you'd like to see

2587
03:48:04,840 --> 03:48:08,840
Added to modern car suites Shout out to my wife for letting me do some gear shopping

2588
03:48:08,840 --> 03:48:12,840
Honestly? Dials?

2589
03:48:12,840 --> 03:48:16,840
Some switches More piano black

2590
03:48:16,840 --> 03:48:20,840
Maybe a slider Don't need them

2591
03:48:20,840 --> 03:48:24,840
We need less actually Please less

2592
03:48:24,840 --> 03:48:28,840
My car is almost all glass And I love it

2593
03:48:28,840 --> 03:48:32,840
Oh, I know, I don't like it I don't

2594
03:48:32,840 --> 03:48:36,840
It's interesting to me because I hear a lot of people talk about

2595
03:48:36,840 --> 03:48:40,840
How desperately they need Climate controls for instance

2596
03:48:40,840 --> 03:48:44,840
To be physical switches And I'm sitting here going

2597
03:48:44,840 --> 03:48:48,840
Why are you touching it? The fan is set to auto

2598
03:48:48,840 --> 03:48:52,840
You set a temperature you're comfortable with And then you never touch it again

2599
03:48:52,840 --> 03:48:56,840
You also Have discussed how

2600
03:48:56,840 --> 03:49:00,840
Your significant other Will change the things

2601
03:49:00,840 --> 03:49:04,840
Then you have to change them back So just because you think her opinion is wrong

2602
03:49:04,840 --> 03:49:08,840
Does not change the fact that you still Have to interact with it

2603
03:49:08,840 --> 03:49:12,840
It's so little though It's like I just

2604
03:49:12,840 --> 03:49:16,840
I'm just saying the point doesn't really land That's fair, that's fair

2605
03:49:16,840 --> 03:49:20,840
But it also just it's still I don't know man, I don't know what to tell you

2606
03:49:20,840 --> 03:49:24,840
It just doesn't bother me At all to do it on a touch screen

2607
03:49:24,840 --> 03:49:28,840
I was a Rivian not that long ago And

2608
03:49:28,840 --> 03:49:32,840
Had to interact with the touch screen And it just felt like the dumbest thing in the world

2609
03:49:32,840 --> 03:49:36,840
Why are these not buttons? I don't know

2610
03:49:36,840 --> 03:49:40,840
I don't think it needs to all be buttons again I think you can have some stuff in the menus

2611
03:49:40,840 --> 03:49:44,840
But like All I would want to see is just

2612
03:49:44,840 --> 03:49:48,840
Sort of more thoughtful I'd love to see Android Auto

2613
03:49:48,840 --> 03:49:52,840
And CarPlay be more reliable That's something

2614
03:49:52,840 --> 03:49:56,840
I'd basically I would just love

2615
03:49:56,840 --> 03:50:00,840
Like a minor feature and bug fix Pass on my car and otherwise it'd be perfect

2616
03:50:00,840 --> 03:50:04,840
So for example I have a couple of programmable buttons I have one on my steering wheel

2617
03:50:04,840 --> 03:50:08,840
And I have one that's like up on the dash here If both of those supported

2618
03:50:08,840 --> 03:50:12,840
Alternate functions with long press and double press I would be happy as a pig in sh**

2619
03:50:12,840 --> 03:50:16,840
That'd be pretty sweet If my Android Auto

2620
03:50:16,840 --> 03:50:20,840
Didn't occasionally just like Fail to Bluetooth pair and have my audio not work

2621
03:50:20,840 --> 03:50:24,840
Or if Depending on the

2622
03:50:24,840 --> 03:50:28,840
Audio source on my phone The volume wasn't either

2623
03:50:28,840 --> 03:50:32,840
Way lower or way higher So I would just send

2624
03:50:32,840 --> 03:50:36,840
Portia A list of all those sort of

2625
03:50:36,840 --> 03:50:40,840
Various minor Tiny insignificant inconveniences

2626
03:50:40,840 --> 03:50:44,840
Like the fact that I can't have it just automatically start up the car

2627
03:50:44,840 --> 03:50:48,840
In the driving profile that I always use I always drive in sport mode so why do I have to

2628
03:50:48,840 --> 03:50:52,840
Turn this dial every single time I get into my car It's stupid just don't do that

2629
03:50:52,840 --> 03:50:56,840
Then I would just I would just love it

2630
03:50:56,840 --> 03:51:00,840
I wouldn't want anything else I wouldn't want my car to really do

2631
03:51:00,840 --> 03:51:04,840
Anything other than when I press this thing It goes that way and when I press this thing

2632
03:51:04,840 --> 03:51:08,840
It stops going that way except When I also press a different thing

2633
03:51:08,840 --> 03:51:12,840
And then sometimes it goes that way When I press this thing sometimes it goes that way

2634
03:51:12,840 --> 03:51:16,840
When you press a different thing can you do that one again Do you press a different thing?

2635
03:51:16,840 --> 03:51:20,840
I don't even know what I did Okay don't worry about it

2636
03:51:20,840 --> 03:51:24,840
Yeah I want a dumber car And I want to pay a lot less for it

2637
03:51:24,840 --> 03:51:28,840
Well you're never going to get that second thing so No it's a thing

2638
03:51:28,840 --> 03:51:32,840
I mean well the slate looks pretty cool And there's like a bunch of them globally

2639
03:51:32,840 --> 03:51:36,840
Toyota has some truck that Is not sold in North America but it's very affordable

2640
03:51:36,840 --> 03:51:40,840
Well that's what I'm talking about though But it's not sold in North America because of

2641
03:51:40,840 --> 03:51:44,840
North American regulations on lane assistance stuff Really?

2642
03:51:44,840 --> 03:51:48,840
It has nothing to do with Toyota's decision making Interesting

2643
03:51:48,840 --> 03:51:52,840
There's like a certain reason with Certain safety laws that

2644
03:51:52,840 --> 03:51:56,840
A bunch of cheaper cars Globally are not allowed to come to North America

2645
03:51:56,840 --> 03:52:00,840
So irritating Especially because like an insane amount

2646
03:52:00,840 --> 03:52:04,840
Of cars on the road don't have these things Yeah because they're just older

2647
03:52:04,840 --> 03:52:08,840
And like dude oh my god Driving Emma's car the lane assist

2648
03:52:08,840 --> 03:52:12,840
Is dangerous Oh it can be

2649
03:52:12,840 --> 03:52:16,840
Like it's not okay And not just a lane assist but the emergency automatic braking

2650
03:52:16,840 --> 03:52:20,840
I've had At least three times

2651
03:52:20,840 --> 03:52:24,840
That my Taycan has almost killed me Because

2652
03:52:24,840 --> 03:52:28,840
I decided to go To turn left

2653
03:52:28,840 --> 03:52:32,840
And it was like there's a car in front of you I'm gonna stop and it stopped

2654
03:52:32,840 --> 03:52:36,840
In Oncoming traffic

2655
03:52:36,840 --> 03:52:40,840
And in a really jarring startling I need a second to figure out what the heck is going on

2656
03:52:40,840 --> 03:52:44,840
And why my car isn't moving And I need to hit it again to get out of the way

2657
03:52:44,840 --> 03:52:48,840
Absolutely insane I don't want these things

2658
03:52:48,840 --> 03:52:52,840
I understand they might make it better But it's like

2659
03:52:52,840 --> 03:52:56,840
There's a lot of drivers out there somewhere I think a lot of people on the road it's not helpful for

2660
03:52:56,840 --> 03:53:00,840
And I know a lot of people just turn them off So like

2661
03:53:00,840 --> 03:53:04,840
And my lane keep there's a particular spot between Smashchamps and my house

2662
03:53:04,840 --> 03:53:08,840
That it's just like And just tries to rip me out of the lane

2663
03:53:08,840 --> 03:53:12,840
Dude I don't want any of this stuff I don't want any of it at all

2664
03:53:12,840 --> 03:53:16,840
So like The fact that I'm not allowed to buy one

2665
03:53:16,840 --> 03:53:20,840
In North America that doesn't have those things Super cheap

2666
03:53:20,840 --> 03:53:24,840
I'm hoping this brings it up Toyota

2667
03:53:24,840 --> 03:53:28,840
Truck sold outside America

2668
03:53:28,840 --> 03:53:32,840
Is it the Hilux? That's what people in chat said

2669
03:53:32,840 --> 03:53:36,840
I think it's a Hilux Champ Yeah this thing

2670
03:53:36,840 --> 03:53:40,840
They have a bunch of different versions of it Um

2671
03:53:40,840 --> 03:53:44,840
It looks a little You know like a Lego truck

2672
03:53:44,840 --> 03:53:48,840
Um You can configure it in a bunch of different ways

2673
03:53:48,840 --> 03:53:52,840
And look $10,000 pick up

2674
03:53:52,840 --> 03:53:56,840
Wow Like

2675
03:53:56,840 --> 03:54:00,840
Let me buy the cheap truck thing That people do crazy stuff with

2676
03:54:00,840 --> 03:54:04,840
Whatever It's a $10,000 platform that has an engine in it

2677
03:54:04,840 --> 03:54:08,840
And you can drive around Cool

2678
03:54:08,840 --> 03:54:12,840
There's a bunch of these things It's not just this Toyota truck

2679
03:54:12,840 --> 03:54:16,840
There's other variants as well Oh

2680
03:54:18,840 --> 03:54:22,840
frustrating More TV focused questions

2681
03:54:22,840 --> 03:54:26,840
Howdy when? With TVs being so competitive

2682
03:54:26,840 --> 03:54:30,840
Nearing a race to the bottom economics Creating millions of pounds of e-waste

2683
03:54:30,840 --> 03:54:34,840
Should we have a minimum price floor On certain electronics?

2684
03:54:34,840 --> 03:54:38,840
Is quality the winner? Generally speaking I'm pretty pro free market

2685
03:54:38,840 --> 03:54:42,840
A regulated free market That prevents monopolists from taking advantage

2686
03:54:42,840 --> 03:54:46,840
Of their position But I don't think

2687
03:54:46,840 --> 03:54:50,840
You're ever going to get me advocating For

2688
03:54:50,840 --> 03:54:54,840
Minimum price? For a minimum price on something

2689
03:54:54,840 --> 03:54:58,840
I think that You know my job

2690
03:54:58,840 --> 03:55:02,840
Is educating people To make sure that they buy something

2691
03:55:02,840 --> 03:55:06,840
That is going to meet their needs For an extended period of time

2692
03:55:06,840 --> 03:55:10,840
In hopes that there will be less waste overall If people consume

2693
03:55:10,840 --> 03:55:14,840
As they will consume But consume the right things

2694
03:55:14,840 --> 03:55:18,840
So that there's less trial and error involved And I just

2695
03:55:18,840 --> 03:55:22,840
Don't see how you implement this Like it's not like

2696
03:55:22,840 --> 03:55:26,840
It's a terrible idea On the surface of it

2697
03:55:26,840 --> 03:55:30,840
I'd say You'd be better off creating

2698
03:55:30,840 --> 03:55:34,840
Like a warranty minimum So a minimum amount of time

2699
03:55:34,840 --> 03:55:38,840
That they have to support the product To incentivize them

2700
03:55:38,840 --> 03:55:42,840
To implement things Rather than regulating it directly

2701
03:55:42,840 --> 03:55:46,840
I like that, that should also spread to more products The more I'm learning about washer, dryer

2702
03:55:46,840 --> 03:55:50,840
Refrigerator Dishwasher

2703
03:55:50,840 --> 03:55:54,840
Holy crap dude The sheer amount of waste

2704
03:55:54,840 --> 03:55:58,840
In not even the electronics portion But just the metals and everything else

2705
03:55:58,840 --> 03:56:02,840
That is involved with this People just have to toss out

2706
03:56:02,840 --> 03:56:06,840
Because it's not worth repairing Is crazy

2707
03:56:06,840 --> 03:56:10,840
Yeah It comes with the house

2708
03:56:10,840 --> 03:56:14,840
Like how Is this turning into something that I'm going to replace more often than my TV

2709
03:56:14,840 --> 03:56:18,840
We were going to get new appliances When we moved into our current place

2710
03:56:18,840 --> 03:56:22,840
And the guy who came in Looked at one of them

2711
03:56:22,840 --> 03:56:26,840
When we were The motor and the washer went or something like that

2712
03:56:26,840 --> 03:56:30,840
And basically Yvonne was like, oh yeah I don't know if we want to bother

2713
03:56:30,840 --> 03:56:34,840
With repairing it and the guy's like, yes you do I will put a new motor

2714
03:56:34,840 --> 03:56:38,840
And this will last for another 25 years If you bought a new one

2715
03:56:38,840 --> 03:56:42,840
You would be replacing it in 5 to 10 Yeah

2716
03:56:42,840 --> 03:56:46,840
So like I said earlier in the show My fridge is going so I was like alright

2717
03:56:46,840 --> 03:56:50,840
Time to do some research because this is a pastime What can I buy

2718
03:56:50,840 --> 03:56:54,840
What should I get All of everything

2719
03:56:54,840 --> 03:56:58,840
Like there was literally I can't remember the exact comment

2720
03:56:58,840 --> 03:57:02,840
I could probably find it on my phone But there was like an appliance guy

2721
03:57:02,840 --> 03:57:06,840
Who says ending and I hate everything Because like he can't recommend

2722
03:57:06,840 --> 03:57:10,840
Something that's actually good Yeah I forget what brand it is

2723
03:57:10,840 --> 03:57:14,840
But my mom bought a new fridge From someone that like for me growing up

2724
03:57:14,840 --> 03:57:18,840
Was like oh that's a reputable appliance brand And they've been out I think half a dozen

2725
03:57:18,840 --> 03:57:22,840
Times To fix it

2726
03:57:22,840 --> 03:57:26,840
And she's been like at what point Is this a lemon you guys have spent more than

2727
03:57:26,840 --> 03:57:30,840
The cost of this fridge coming here And fixing it over and over and over again

2728
03:57:30,840 --> 03:57:34,840
And it is broken and that you're Not able to fix it and

2729
03:57:34,840 --> 03:57:38,840
It's just like The whole thing is so

2730
03:57:38,840 --> 03:57:40,840
Grossly inefficient

2731
03:57:42,840 --> 03:57:46,840
The comment was Appliance tech here

2732
03:57:46,840 --> 03:57:50,840
It's all plastic disposable crap Life is pointless and the planet is doomed

2733
03:57:50,840 --> 03:57:54,840
Because of the waste we produce Refrigerators within your budget are not by it for life

2734
03:57:56,840 --> 03:58:00,840
And it was like Oh

2735
03:58:00,840 --> 03:58:04,840
So then I was like okay Well this person's listed budget

2736
03:58:04,840 --> 03:58:08,840
On this particular reddit thread Didn't seem super high

2737
03:58:08,840 --> 03:58:12,840
Can you spend More than this and get

2738
03:58:12,840 --> 03:58:16,840
Something that's not just portable E-waste

2739
03:58:16,840 --> 03:58:20,840
Apparently yeah Nice

2740
03:58:20,840 --> 03:58:24,840

03:58:32,840 --> 03:58:36,840
Opened a subzero fridge Myself but I've heard of them

2744
03:58:36,840 --> 03:58:40,840
There's another one that I don't Remember the name of it but there's another brand as well

2745
03:58:40,840 --> 03:58:44,840
You do have to be careful sometimes because Not

2746
03:58:44,840 --> 03:58:48,840
Manufacturers just make for all the manufacturers Yeah

2747
03:58:48,840 --> 03:58:52,840

Can't remember the name of the other brand But it was

2762
03:59:52,840 --> 03:59:56,840
There's wolf for stoves I know Pretty typical like a high end install

2763
03:59:56,840 --> 04:00:00,840
I don't know if they're actually worth it How much does a sub zero fridge cost

2764
04:00:00,840 --> 04:00:04,840
Oh What

2765
04:00:04,840 --> 04:00:08,840
Oh my god But there's a ton of people on reddit

2766
04:00:08,840 --> 04:00:12,840
Saying that these things last 25 years And are highly repairable

2767
04:00:12,840 --> 04:00:16,840
That's like how much a fridge should cost For how insanely complicated

2768
04:00:16,840 --> 04:00:20,840
Some of them can be Called true

2769
04:00:20,840 --> 04:00:24,840
Those were the two that people were talking about True and sub zero

2770
04:00:24,840 --> 04:00:28,840
So do you spend No

2771
04:00:28,840 --> 04:00:32,840
$11,000 to $20,000 on a fridge Or do you replace the same

2772
04:00:32,840 --> 04:00:36,840
Genuine piece of garbage And fill landfills with

2773
04:00:36,840 --> 04:00:40,840
You know a thousand dollar Bridges I'm guessing I don't know what the price is

2774
04:00:40,840 --> 04:00:44,840
Especially because when you sell your house With that sub zero fridge

2775
04:00:44,840 --> 04:00:48,840
The new buyer will not Have additional value to it

2776
04:00:48,840 --> 04:00:52,840
So you're basically just paying for yourself To use it

2777
04:00:52,840 --> 04:00:56,840
Most people are not going to Be in a position in their life

2778
04:00:56,840 --> 04:01:00,840
Where they can afford a $25,000 fridge And have enough of their life left

2779
04:01:00,840 --> 04:01:04,840
That they're going to use it for the whole time And that's just

2780
04:01:04,840 --> 04:01:08,840
The cold hard truth Now for some cold hard truth

2781
04:01:08,840 --> 04:01:12,840
About b580s Being available at MSRP

2782
04:01:12,840 --> 04:01:16,840
They're not How am I supposed to do that

2783
04:01:16,840 --> 04:01:20,840
Do you have the gun year Intel arc Didn't think so

2784
04:01:20,840 --> 04:01:24,840
You have this one right here Always a versioning thing

2785
04:01:24,840 --> 04:01:28,840
Cool Don't worry

2786
04:01:28,840 --> 04:01:32,840
We're working on that and it's going to be awesome I don't know if we're working on that

2787
04:01:32,840 --> 04:01:36,840
Someday we will Lowest price in 30 days

2788
04:01:36,840 --> 04:01:40,840
Whatever It's not

2789
04:01:40,840 --> 04:01:44,840
And this one doesn't have the holiday bundle For some reason

2790
04:01:44,840 --> 04:01:48,840
So I don't know what's up with that Maybe contact new egg before you buy this one

2791
04:01:48,840 --> 04:01:52,840
LMG.GG slash new egg right Do I remember this now

2792
04:01:52,840 --> 04:01:56,840
The asrock steel legend is It was $259 for a long time

2793
04:01:56,840 --> 04:02:00,840
And it's $299 now But the Intel holiday bundle is still there

2794
04:02:00,840 --> 04:02:04,840
So free battlefield 6 I think you could say with a straight face

2795
04:02:04,840 --> 04:02:08,840
If you wanted battlefield 6 And you get battlefield 6 with it

2796
04:02:08,840 --> 04:02:12,840
It's pretty close to MSRP But it's not what it was

2797
04:02:12,840 --> 04:02:16,840
Just a couple weeks ago Where you could get it for $249

2798
04:02:16,840 --> 04:02:20,840
$259 And get the holiday bundle

2799
04:02:20,840 --> 04:02:24,840
Which was an outstanding value Man, what about 50-70 TI's

2800
04:02:24,840 --> 04:02:28,840
Are they just Dad, are we cooked? What's up?

2801
04:02:28,840 --> 04:02:32,840
Dad's in the chat He said take it with you when you move

2802
04:02:32,840 --> 04:02:36,840
Stop problem Nice

2803
04:02:36,840 --> 04:02:40,840
Assuming your new kitchen layout accommodates With the fridge

2804
04:02:40,840 --> 04:02:44,840
Yeah We ended up having one option

2805
04:02:44,840 --> 04:02:48,840
For oven When we needed to get a new oven for our kitchen

2806
04:02:48,840 --> 04:02:52,840
At our place because we didn't want to Completely redo all the cabinets and everything

2807
04:02:52,840 --> 04:02:56,840
And they weren't wood They were like some kind of

2808
04:02:56,840 --> 04:03:00,840
Mela, whatever They were like that kind of plastic covered thing

2809
04:03:00,840 --> 04:03:04,840
And so they're not like easily Modifiable

2810
04:03:04,840 --> 04:03:08,840
And it was like a top bottom stack one One option

2811
04:03:08,840 --> 04:03:12,840
So a lot of the time it's dictated by Like the space you're in

2812
04:03:12,840 --> 04:03:16,840
More than the Oh man, 50-70 TI's are really expensive

2813
04:03:16,840 --> 04:03:20,840
Dad, if you're continuing to comment I can't tell because my computer is restarting

2814
04:03:20,840 --> 04:03:24,840
Because Security or something

2815
04:03:24,840 --> 04:03:28,840
Nice It's your dad's username

2816
04:03:28,840 --> 04:03:30,840
Liquidus

2817

Take it with you when you move I would make it work

2818
04:03:40,840 --> 04:03:44,840

2819
04:03:44,840 --> 04:03:48,840

Okay Last one I got for you today

2821
04:03:52,840 --> 04:03:56,840
Were any of you impacted by the telecom bubble And the fall of Nortel

2822
04:03:56,840 --> 04:04:00,840
Loving the mechanical pencil I'm so glad you like it

2823
04:04:00,840 --> 04:04:04,840
No, I was, man, I was still I was still a young boy

2824
04:04:04,840 --> 04:04:08,840
When did Nortel fall? The history of all that

2825
04:04:08,840 --> 04:04:12,840
Super interesting Yeah, I was 14

2826
04:04:12,840 --> 04:04:16,840
So I wasn't really like Workforcing it up yet

2827
04:04:16,840 --> 04:04:20,840
Sleeping on those investments Yeah, you should have bought a house

2828
04:04:20,840 --> 04:04:24,840
And invested in Nortel very temporarily And then sold right before the crash

2829
04:04:24,840 --> 04:04:28,840
