1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:08,000
What's up flow plane and technically twitch chat

2
00:00:13,920 --> 00:00:21,560
Really What you acknowledged twitch chat I did that's crazy. No one's irredeemable

3
00:00:23,560 --> 00:00:25,560
Whoa, I mean they're on twitch

00:00:26,560 --> 00:00:30,800
Okay, we're just we're just we're just kidding you guys we just we're just kidding you guys

5
00:00:30,800 --> 00:00:37,520
We don't actually hate twitch if that's an old enough meme though that like I feel like a lot of current people might not yeah

6
00:00:37,760 --> 00:00:39,760
We always used to meme on twitch chat

7
00:00:40,840 --> 00:00:46,320
Because they were kind of toxic awful. Yeah, they deserved it. Yeah, everything that we ditched. Yeah

8
00:00:55,600 --> 00:00:59,160
I think we might just have to go live with the show today. Sorry. I don't have a ton of time

9
00:01:00,880 --> 00:01:02,880
No, no, you're good

10
00:01:05,840 --> 00:01:08,240

What the crap Running Windows 31% running Windows 31% what is the threat locker? Oh

14
00:01:28,600 --> 00:01:33,360
Hold on. No. No Windows modules installer

15
00:01:35,560 --> 00:01:38,120
Classic they both hit at the same time

16
00:01:40,120 --> 00:01:46,120
So I'm sitting at like okay, it didn't stay at 30 is that about 20% CPU utilization

17
00:01:46,120 --> 00:01:51,320
Okay, that's what actually it's actually chilling out a little bit now. Yeah. All right. All right. All right

18
00:01:54,720 --> 00:02:01,200
I saw your game links video and it's awesome, but why is your on-screen voice different than your when voice?

19
00:02:07,520 --> 00:02:10,960
Different Mike on when I'm probably mostly like chilling and

20
00:02:11,920 --> 00:02:18,800
On that video, I'm like very presentary and also very different Mike's

21
00:02:31,880 --> 00:02:39,760
Yeah, I'd love to Threat locker will live watch updates install and scan them as they come in that's actually kind of sick

00:02:40,960 --> 00:02:47,960
I Make sense why you'd have a brutal spike, but it's kind of cool. Yeah, I'm ready whenever dude

23
00:02:47,960 --> 00:02:51,120

00:03:04,680 --> 00:03:10,600
Ah, it's it's less it's less of a hard out and more of a beat traffic out got it

27
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:16,400
Oh, so the sooner the better. Okay, you know, yeah, you know what I'm saying. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah

28
00:03:19,200 --> 00:03:21,200
Yeah, do it

29
00:03:33,800 --> 00:03:35,800
You

30
00:03:38,560 --> 00:03:43,440
Hello world and oh welcome to the way and show happy Friday everybody

31
00:03:43,440 --> 00:03:52,600
We've got a great show lined up for you It is the first day of the second month of good news when show that's right

32
00:03:52,600 --> 00:03:58,040
Oh the ratio of good news to bad news has to be I forget what we settled on

33
00:03:58,040 --> 00:04:05,360
But it's pretty much mostly good news this week starting with something that is like a blast from my childhood past

34
00:04:05,640 --> 00:04:12,000
The one and only Zs night original developer of Zs and ES is

35
00:04:12,880 --> 00:04:20,480
back Z-SNES is back completely rewritten from scratch. I actually haven't tried it yet, but I intend to this weekend

36
00:04:20,480 --> 00:04:27,040
I'm super excited to talk about that. Also. We've got to be talking about. Oh, no, I don't want to talk about that

37
00:04:28,760 --> 00:04:34,480
Oh, this one's good Microsoft has committed in something that they are codenaming

38
00:04:35,120 --> 00:04:41,000
K2 seemingly as an acknowledgement of the mountain they have to climb a

39
00:04:41,640 --> 00:04:48,800
concerted effort to fix Windows very excited to talk about that. What else we got. Yeah, I took mine

40
00:04:49,360 --> 00:04:54,000
You know, I tried baby Toyota did what people have thought about for a really long time

41
00:04:54,000 --> 00:04:58,360
Which is they took a chair from a car and they put it on a stand with some wheels on it

42
00:04:58,360 --> 00:05:04,880
And they called it a computer chair toy was limited edition thirty five hundred dollar crown gaming chair has heating cooling in USB-C

43
00:05:05,400 --> 00:05:10,320
Seat seat Pelt Buckle Didn't even know that part. It's so expensive

44
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:16,280
Cheaper than a real Toyota That's true

45
00:05:16,320 --> 00:05:24,520
Maybe not much more than a used one And I don't know we've got stuff. There's other stuff we sponsored a drift car

46
00:05:25,720 --> 00:05:27,840
Really you went with that. I don't know sure

47
00:05:30,080 --> 00:05:32,080
It's all better one right under it

48
00:05:48,320 --> 00:05:58,920
The show is brought to you by messy Oh, dude, Squarespace and Ninja one along with our rap partner D brand and our laptop partner razor and our chair partner

49
00:05:58,920 --> 00:06:02,800
Also, razor if you were a famous musician, what genre would you?

50
00:06:04,120 --> 00:06:07,680
What's the most annoying genre? No, I think it's called noise

51
00:06:08,760 --> 00:06:11,440
No, I think it's called noise that a thing Dan

52
00:06:12,040 --> 00:06:16,840
Tell me something. What do you think I would that knows way more infinitely more about this than either of us

53
00:06:16,840 --> 00:06:19,040
I'm going with sure. I would definitely be

54
00:06:19,960 --> 00:06:27,680
Cringy cringy agree. Yeah, okay. I'd be cringy pop style music for like moms at this point

55
00:06:27,680 --> 00:06:32,600
I think I think that would be that would be my best shot. I don't know Taylor Swift

56
00:06:34,520 --> 00:06:39,840
If I could if I had half the talent that Taylor Swift has in one thigh then I could hope to be

57
00:06:40,160 --> 00:06:45,280
You know more like Taylor Swift, but no, no, I'm afraid I might have thighs, but they're not talented

58
00:06:45,560 --> 00:06:53,720
Let's jump right Noise music or simply noise is a subgenre of experimental music that is characterized by its use of

59
00:06:54,320 --> 00:06:57,240
Unwanted noise as a primary musical element

60
00:06:59,000 --> 00:07:01,920
So that's that's I think that's probably the most annoying one

61
00:07:03,400 --> 00:07:07,720
It's just terrible often featuring little or no melody rhythm or harmony

62
00:07:08,560 --> 00:07:14,440
That just sounds like someone was taking the piss just terrible and then it just

63
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:17,320
Accidentally a whole genre

64
00:07:19,240 --> 00:07:29,080
No, no, we're not Everyone knows about noise. Okay. Sorry. Yeah, Microsoft has created an internal initiative called to K2 to fix

65
00:07:29,680 --> 00:07:32,640
Windows 11 probably something for a while though

66
00:07:32,680 --> 00:07:38,760
They have finally admitted to themselves that Windows 11 is a giant boatload of suck and

67
00:07:39,240 --> 00:07:47,360
According to sources inside Microsoft is using the K2 initiative to fix the operating systems biggest pain points and win

68
00:07:48,280 --> 00:07:53,120
Unintended back user trust the company is also reportedly

69
00:07:53,840 --> 00:07:58,400
intentionally pivoting away from shipping new features as fast as possible and

70
00:07:59,400 --> 00:08:02,840
Refocusing on quality, you know, it's kind of amazing

71
00:08:03,720 --> 00:08:06,920
how every time a company is

72
00:08:07,400 --> 00:08:11,920
Like having big big problems. The idea is hey

73
00:08:12,960 --> 00:08:15,800
Why don't we stop intentionally sucking?

74
00:08:17,280 --> 00:08:23,740
Actually, I wish that was often the solution. I went on a rant about this recently but not on camera. So here you go

75
00:08:24,560 --> 00:08:27,960
Ready for it. Here comes the Tim Hortons when show rant

76
00:08:28,800 --> 00:08:35,360
Oh, yeah, this made me so angry. I was talking to an American or something and they were basically like well

77
00:08:35,360 --> 00:08:38,440
Yeah, yeah, right, you know, right like bud like Tim Hortons, right?

78
00:08:38,440 --> 00:08:43,960
Y'all Canadians y'all like the Tim Hortons, right bud and I'm like triggered and I was basically like only triggered

79
00:08:44,840 --> 00:08:48,760
okay Let me clarify because yes, I

80
00:08:49,520 --> 00:08:56,920
Do like Tim Hortons, but there's a bit of a temporal issue with that statement because while it was once true

81
00:08:57,440 --> 00:09:04,180
For me and every proud Canadian it is no longer true Tim Hortons is now owned by

82
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:11,760
Restaurant brands which seriously did they go to that to that LTT Store school of naming?

83
00:09:12,480 --> 00:09:18,960
We're gonna have a company that owns restaurant. What should we call it? Let's call it fucking restaurant brands

84
00:09:19,720 --> 00:09:26,020
That aside, okay restaurant brands is owned by like black rock and some

85
00:09:26,460 --> 00:09:31,140
Brazilian conglomerate like a bunch of private equity. There is nothing

86
00:09:31,700 --> 00:09:39,340
Canadian about Tim Hortons anymore anymore. Yeah, and after all of that happened Tim Hortons went at least here on the west coast

87
00:09:39,340 --> 00:09:45,300
I've been told that on the east and the eastern side some of them do still bake the doughnuts fresh in store

88
00:09:45,300 --> 00:09:50,620
Oh, really here on the west coast they went from baking the doughnuts fresh in store every day

89
00:09:50,740 --> 00:09:57,300
Their slogan used to be always fresh always Tim Hortons that was their slogan now

90
00:09:57,300 --> 00:10:03,260
They're still always Tim Hortons, but they're a gross messed up not fresh version of it

91
00:10:03,260 --> 00:10:07,380
Like you you could get a brand new like the freshest donut in Tim Hortons

92
00:10:07,380 --> 00:10:13,500
It'll taste like it's three days old these days. It's so it's so bad. It's it's absolutely

93
00:10:14,260 --> 00:10:19,660
Disgusting how did I get on the subject of Tim Hortons? I literally to be honest

94
00:10:20,820 --> 00:10:25,740
Oh, right when companies start sucking right? Okay, so this was a while back

95
00:10:25,740 --> 00:10:34,120
This must have been like a year ago at this point But it like it made its way into my news feed that Tim Hortons was experiencing less than stellar growth and

96
00:10:34,460 --> 00:10:42,660
Customer engagement and on a shareholder call. Okay on a shareholder call. They're literally acknowledging soft sales and they go

97
00:10:43,500 --> 00:10:49,580
Yeah, so here's what our plan. We're gonna really like double down on the

98
00:10:49,700 --> 00:10:58,620
Canadiana in our marketing and like, you know little kids skating on outdoor hockey rinks and maple leaves and beavers and all those

99
00:10:58,620 --> 00:11:03,900
Very Canadian things in order to connect more to our Canadian cut. Here's an idea

100
00:11:03,940 --> 00:11:09,180
Why don't you make fucking edible food? Yeah as a way to connect with your Canadian customers?

101
00:11:09,180 --> 00:11:11,580
I used to when I would travel abroad

102
00:11:12,260 --> 00:11:18,620
So when I'm at airports basically I had a routine where every single time I would go to Tim Hortons

103
00:11:18,780 --> 00:11:22,740
So like the last thing I did in Canada was like one of the most Canadian things you could do

104
00:11:22,740 --> 00:11:28,940
We just go to Tim Hortons. Go to Tim Hortons get some chili. I haven't done it. Yep. Get a sandwich get get a donut

105
00:11:30,500 --> 00:11:36,660
They all suck now haven't done it in years. They even fucked up the chili. How do you fuck up chili?

106
00:11:36,780 --> 00:11:42,940
It's literally just like meat and tomato paste and beans and then you just put it over heat

107
00:11:43,260 --> 00:11:47,220
Okay, the chili is fine, but the problem is the bun sucks though

108
00:11:47,220 --> 00:11:50,820
The chili has gotten worse as well. Has it really okay? I think so. I haven't had it in a while

109
00:11:50,820 --> 00:11:56,380
It feels like it I might just be like dude annoyed the bun taste. I also use the bun as a spoon

110
00:11:56,380 --> 00:12:01,260
Well, yeah, that's the whole point being way worse may have impacted my opinion of the chili

111
00:12:01,980 --> 00:12:07,420
Okay, because I used to go and get Tim Hortons chili for my lunch like seriously

112
00:12:07,420 --> 00:12:13,340
This is embarrassing, but like two to three times a week when I was working at NCIX. I'd get my chili

113
00:12:13,340 --> 00:12:17,940
I'd get my bun. I'd get usually when they had them. I'd get the blueberry fritter

114
00:12:17,940 --> 00:12:23,060
Oh the blueberry fritter the only problem with the blueberry fritter was how often they ended up undercooking them

115
00:12:23,060 --> 00:12:26,980
Which looking back on it is maybe why they stopped baking them in store. The point is that doesn't matter

116
00:12:26,980 --> 00:12:33,840
I would get my blueberry fritter I'd get my lemon iced tea and that was it the lunch of champions that lunch took

117
00:12:34,260 --> 00:12:36,700
OCC as a product line from like

118
00:12:37,660 --> 00:12:44,900
$3,000 a month to $100,000 a month. Okay, that's what Tim Hortons chili did in his prime

119
00:12:45,660 --> 00:12:52,900
now I Wouldn't feed my dog that bun. I don't even have a dog

120
00:12:56,580 --> 00:13:03,780
Anyway, so yeah, I wish that every company came up with the idea of how about making the product suck less

121
00:13:04,020 --> 00:13:06,700
But restaurant brands couldn't do it

122
00:13:07,620 --> 00:13:14,860
Anyway, I genuinely think Tim Hortons was so important to Canada's national identity that that sale should have been blocked

123
00:13:15,380 --> 00:13:20,020
I actually Strongly agree it like actually was

124
00:13:20,780 --> 00:13:25,820
Like our Prime Minister would talk about it globally like this was this was it was not a

125
00:13:26,500 --> 00:13:33,340
This was not just some random like restaurant Yeah, like like going to Tim Hortons in the morning for breakfast is like

126
00:13:33,780 --> 00:13:39,300
Was might as well be the canteen of Canada. Yeah, it's just yeah, and it's ruined now

127
00:13:39,300 --> 00:13:42,620
Like I'm trying to think of like what would be any like I don't know of a single example

128
00:13:42,620 --> 00:13:47,300
It would be like Ford Like not be it would be like Ford selling to like

129
00:13:47,820 --> 00:13:53,860
Company, yeah, or to Geely or something like imagine as an American if you're watching this right now

130
00:13:53,860 --> 00:14:01,300
If like fucking Ford did not I don't think I don't think Ford is as tied into the American ideas as Tim Hortons was

131
00:14:01,540 --> 00:14:05,700
Depends, you know like like built for tough like dude

132
00:14:05,700 --> 00:14:11,740
Is there a country on earth that loves the f-150 the way that America does like let's let's be real

133
00:14:11,740 --> 00:14:14,460
No, but still let's be real here. I still think I

134
00:14:15,260 --> 00:14:21,340
Still think it's more like what would be what would be like what would be like like at like a German equivalent

135
00:14:21,340 --> 00:14:24,420
Like what would what would be so if so offensive

136
00:14:25,900 --> 00:14:30,740
So like Guys guys hit me hit me with it. You know what? No, we can move on we can move on

137
00:14:30,860 --> 00:14:36,700
Okay, so coming back to Windows on the performance side the start menu is being completely

138
00:14:37,060 --> 00:14:43,020
Rewritten in Microsoft's own when UI 3 framework, which is supposed to make it 60% faster and more responsive

139
00:14:43,020 --> 00:14:48,900
That is such a see that's such a baffling one to me is like when I open the start. What are you even doing?

140
00:14:50,660 --> 00:14:55,220
Like there's there's there's there's things that I do on computers that just

141
00:14:56,220 --> 00:15:00,500
Completely bewilder me how they can take as long as they do a perfect example of this

142
00:15:00,500 --> 00:15:02,860
We were running a benchmark on set yesterday. We were

143
00:15:03,740 --> 00:15:08,340
Performance testing. Oh, we ran SLI. We grabbed some 30 90 ti's

144
00:15:08,620 --> 00:15:14,980
Okay, and we like ran like modern games that would still run. It's not really SLI

145
00:15:14,980 --> 00:15:24,380
It's more of like the direct X 12 multi GPU thing But hey, we ran them and in the best case scenario it was actually pretty competitive with a 50 90 and like 3d mark

146
00:15:24,420 --> 00:15:29,260
It's pretty pretty crazy. Anyway, the point is when we were running 3d mark. I was just like I was

147
00:15:29,860 --> 00:15:35,380
Losing my mind because it's just always bothered me. You know how it does that thing where it's like

148
00:15:36,140 --> 00:15:38,140
detecting system configuration

149
00:15:39,500 --> 00:15:41,500
And it takes like a minute

150
00:15:43,020 --> 00:15:50,060
To do what yeah, like how long does steam hardware survey take how long does it take to get a string of characters for

151
00:15:50,380 --> 00:15:57,860
For the identifier of a piece of heart like we run we run at billions of operations per second on modern computing device

152
00:15:57,860 --> 00:16:03,980
You've got to be kidding me or like when a Wi-Fi access point takes like forever to authenticate the password

153
00:16:03,980 --> 00:16:11,860
It's like it's literally eight bits. Oh, I know it isn't okay. I know it isn't

154
00:16:12,100 --> 00:16:21,500
But but it seems so trivial and in the same way the start menu is like what are you even actually doing like all of this

155
00:16:21,500 --> 00:16:25,260
Has got to be pre-cached What are you doing? You're not doing

156
00:16:26,260 --> 00:16:28,540
anything why why is there like a

157
00:16:29,860 --> 00:16:36,540
Delay well, I don't know enough of the the difference between like what is it when you are or whatever?

158
00:16:37,460 --> 00:16:43,740
And react native as far as my standing goes react native was calling when you I so they're the

159
00:16:44,620 --> 00:16:48,340
The start menu right now is a react native app as far as my understanding goes

160
00:16:48,340 --> 00:16:54,860
Yeah, and if they're just removing that layer and stepping down one and going to win UI

161
00:16:54,860 --> 00:17:00,060
I don't know how this stack works. I read quickly that apparently at least sometimes it is calling when you I

162
00:17:00,060 --> 00:17:03,820
So I'm assuming they're just stepping down a layer like maybe you gains a bunch of performance there

163
00:17:04,220 --> 00:17:10,780
The fact that any part of Windows native UI is react native is wild to me

164
00:17:10,780 --> 00:17:13,860
Oh, this is great. G freak has another good one

165
00:17:13,860 --> 00:17:20,060
I hate it when Windows takes forever to tell me my passwords wrong. I accidentally press enter instead of you know enter anything like

166
00:17:20,700 --> 00:17:26,300
Just immediately when you when you do it like six or seven times or whatever that could be a that can be a security feature

167
00:17:26,300 --> 00:17:29,560
Where it's like delaying you being able to put in again for us and whatnot, but when it just like

168
00:17:30,200 --> 00:17:36,240
Takes a while it's dude. It's like a handful of characters that either the hash matches or it doesn't for the crying out loud

169
00:17:37,080 --> 00:17:41,240
Anyway, Microsoft is also reportedly removing ads from its start menu

170
00:17:42,120 --> 00:17:50,040
Again like a bold move bold move. This is like restaurant sales falling. They come up with the bold idea of making food fresh

171
00:17:50,800 --> 00:17:55,800
And then for gaming Microsoft is treating this is

172
00:17:56,320 --> 00:18:01,600
Crazy, this is probably the best that's marketing for steam. Oh, yeah

173
00:18:02,400 --> 00:18:09,120
That valve could have never afforded with all their billions and billions of dollars of I'm Gabe Newell

174
00:18:09,240 --> 00:18:16,720
Rather than buying a yacht I will literally buy the company that makes the yachts all of the money that they have could never have purchased

175
00:18:17,480 --> 00:18:22,000
Microsoft is treating valves steam OS as a performance benchmark

176
00:18:22,640 --> 00:18:28,600
They want those gaming performance to be comparable to steam OS on identical hardware

177
00:18:28,600 --> 00:18:34,640
Which they say is critical because the next Xbox is reportedly going to run Windows

178
00:18:35,360 --> 00:18:43,560
11 oh Man, they were doing really good up until this is this have they hard confirmed that there was gonna be another Xbox

179
00:18:43,560 --> 00:18:46,720
Yeah, project Scorpio. I think it's called like the new CEO

180
00:18:47,720 --> 00:18:54,480
Healy healy helix helio Helio something helix helix. Thank you like next to chat

181
00:18:55,160 --> 00:19:02,240
File Explorer is also getting major performance fixes with a third-party app called file pilot being used as the performance benchmark

182
00:19:02,240 --> 00:19:06,840
They're shooting for this is like embarrassing. Who makes file pilot like no offense

183
00:19:07,440 --> 00:19:11,860
No offense. You're probably no, it's it's I mean, it's the opposite. It's a huge

184
00:19:12,840 --> 00:19:14,840
Brag if you're file pilot

185
00:19:15,840 --> 00:19:23,880
That's amazing, but I don't even know who you are and the fact that Microsoft a multi-trillion dollar company is looking at this

186
00:19:24,560 --> 00:19:32,160
Going yeah These guys are crushing us. We need to do we need to do better. Okay. Who are you?

187
00:19:32,960 --> 00:19:40,880
Manifesto fast dude a system commands. This is actually sick. Hold on. We're getting is file pilot dope file pilot is one guy

188
00:19:41,360 --> 00:19:47,700
dude Catholic Croatian husband father of five one

189
00:19:48,760 --> 00:19:53,920
Extremely busy guy Donking on Windows. Look at that. That's awesome

190
00:19:54,800 --> 00:20:00,080
Hey, what am I looking at here? Oh, this is file pilot. Yeah, he's selected a bunch of things and select a system

191
00:20:00,080 --> 00:20:03,800
He can search. Yeah, I never even like thought about that. That's awesome

192
00:20:04,560 --> 00:20:11,960
Finally Windows update is being reworked to with the goal of making Windows 11 reliable enough that you only need to restart once a month

193
00:20:13,920 --> 00:20:22,840
You Dude file pilots cool, you might if we're doing that thing you should maybe include Microsoft Microsoft setting the bar

194
00:20:23,160 --> 00:20:30,900
Okay, we want to we want to beat the performance of an operating system that the games literally don't even run natively on

195
00:20:31,560 --> 00:20:35,360
We want to beat this one dude in

196
00:20:35,360 --> 00:20:41,920
Explorer like the most critical thing in Windows that literally is like Windows 3.1

197
00:20:42,400 --> 00:20:47,460
Okay, and we want to only have to restart your computer once a month. They put the bar

198
00:20:48,920 --> 00:20:51,280
Here come on you guys

199
00:20:52,520 --> 00:20:56,960
Also, the task bar is getting back. At least they put the bar somewhere moved and resized

200
00:20:57,480 --> 00:21:01,000
K2 is reportedly not going to be a single release

201
00:21:01,000 --> 00:21:07,600
But an ongoing initiative that started in the second half of 2025 with most changes rolling out through the end of 2026 and into

202
00:21:09,040 --> 00:21:11,040
2027

203
00:21:12,440 --> 00:21:17,000
Discussion question and for this I need you to put away the chat

204
00:21:18,200 --> 00:21:24,480
close your eyes and Search deep inside your feelings search your feelings Luke. Okay

205
00:21:26,240 --> 00:21:34,680
Channeling the force right? Do you think Windows can win back its users and you're searching your feelings because

206
00:21:35,360 --> 00:21:38,680
You know you at least used to be a Windows user

207
00:21:39,160 --> 00:21:41,560
Or is it too little too late search your feelings Luke?

208
00:21:42,640 --> 00:21:44,640
I

209
00:21:47,600 --> 00:21:53,000
Mean I think I think so and the reason why I think so is I think most of them haven't left yet

210
00:21:53,160 --> 00:21:56,880
Yeah, I think most of them are very vocally angry as honestly

211
00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:04,400
They should be and this is why you should be because we're seeing action come of the rage that the community has had

212
00:22:04,400 --> 00:22:08,040
I think some people have left I've left

213
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:14,600
I'm not stopping using Linux when the Linux challenge is over. There's a spoiler. I'm going to continue using it

214
00:22:15,760 --> 00:22:20,280
But it isn't it isn't completely too late the approach that I'm taking right now is

215
00:22:21,080 --> 00:22:25,520
What is the most appropriate tool for me to use to have the least frustration?

216
00:22:26,720 --> 00:22:28,720
the the most good time

217
00:22:29,880 --> 00:22:35,640
Whatever you want to call it. Yep, and be able to operate and get stuff done without significant

218
00:22:36,400 --> 00:22:39,200
Like inability to do the thing that I want to do. Yeah, and

219
00:22:40,040 --> 00:22:43,520
right now that is almost always pushing me to

220
00:22:44,400 --> 00:22:47,400
Linux either meant on my laptop cash use on my desktop. I

221
00:22:48,520 --> 00:22:52,960
do Plan on ending with a dual boot setup on my desktop

222
00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:57,080
But it's honestly completely unnecessary on my laptop and I will be continuing to run mint

223
00:22:57,600 --> 00:23:02,700
If this bar shifts and it makes more sense for me to use Windows

224
00:23:03,700 --> 00:23:11,540
I'd probably just use Windows But that is not currently true and like I'm trying to be honestly like pretty

225
00:23:14,820 --> 00:23:19,340
Would I say about that objective? Yeah. Yeah, and like I I

226
00:23:20,340 --> 00:23:23,300
Whipped I went over to my Windows drive

227
00:23:24,020 --> 00:23:28,100
Because I still have my Windows drive in my desktop. It's just been sitting there untouched for like two months

228
00:23:28,100 --> 00:23:34,620
I jumped over my Windows drive just to like Okay, like is it going to function? I haven't even booted into it for two months

229
00:23:34,620 --> 00:23:38,060
I don't know it like did I corrupt it in that time? Maybe I thought I know where this is going

230
00:23:38,700 --> 00:23:45,140
I've ran Windows update for a while got annoyed by a few things booted back into cashy and was like nice

231
00:23:46,620 --> 00:23:53,700
It took dude it took and I know I haven't updated in a while. Okay. Okay. All right. It took

232
00:23:55,180 --> 00:23:58,980
Forever to update it was so long

233
00:23:59,980 --> 00:24:07,140
Super super long time I it felt so stupid that like the control panel seems like it wants to fight me

234
00:24:08,820 --> 00:24:12,340
Like there's just there's just like I'm trying to do multiple things at once and it's like no

235
00:24:12,980 --> 00:24:18,260
No, I'm just gonna like redirect. I guess you just have one of me open. It's like, what do you what are you talking about?

236
00:24:19,100 --> 00:24:22,380
Search was just annoying again. Just like everything. It was just like

237
00:24:23,660 --> 00:24:29,860
Felt gross so I went back All right, let's jump into Windows insiders actually, sorry

238
00:24:29,860 --> 00:24:35,020
There's an interesting question from chat at at zm said have you tried macOS recently? If not, would you give it a try? I?

239
00:24:36,060 --> 00:24:41,740
More open to trying other operating systems now. I recently learned mint and cashy. Do you want to borrow my neo?

240
00:24:41,900 --> 00:24:46,020
I'm not using it right now. It's on my desk. I don't necessarily think so

241
00:24:46,020 --> 00:24:52,780
But what I was gonna add is that I was using my mom's neo for a bit. Mm-hmm. It was totally fine. I

242
00:24:53,740 --> 00:24:58,860
Do find macOS a little weird. I don't know if I would fully get used to it

243
00:24:58,860 --> 00:25:08,580
There's still don't think it's for me really There's some stuff that I find just completely unnecessary and irritating about macOS the fact that you have to click on a window first to

244
00:25:09,260 --> 00:25:12,500
Make it the focus window before you can interact with a thing

245
00:25:13,700 --> 00:25:21,780
Huh, I see it both ways like on Windows sometimes you can like if a window like pops up and you're like about to click something

246
00:25:21,820 --> 00:25:26,980
You can like accidentally interact with something that you didn't mean to and I can see how the macOS way

247
00:25:28,500 --> 00:25:35,140
Kind of prevents that But also it's just it just creates a second click like anytime

248
00:25:35,140 --> 00:25:38,540
I'm switching between things and I do not find that to be

249
00:25:39,780 --> 00:25:47,620
Great, there's a couple. Yeah, there's a couple little things like that There's a couple things that feel a little clunky to me just because it I don't know. It's just not really my style

250
00:25:47,940 --> 00:25:50,460
I do think however at this point in time

251
00:25:51,180 --> 00:25:55,340
If there was a killer app on macOS, I wouldn't flinch using it

252
00:25:55,620 --> 00:25:58,820
Yeah, which I think is not true as of a year ago

253
00:25:58,820 --> 00:26:04,140
So like if I was an editor and it was like, oh boy, I'm gonna have to use final cut. It's like, okay

254
00:26:04,780 --> 00:26:08,020
I mean if I have a Mac, yeah, sounds good more Windows news though

255
00:26:08,300 --> 00:26:12,820
Windows insiders can now pause updates indefinitely in 35-day increments

256
00:26:13,340 --> 00:26:17,900
Windows insiders can oh and there's no cap on renewals. This is a Windows in

257
00:26:18,660 --> 00:26:24,380
Crying out loud. Okay, we need to do a thing where the the the title and the first line are not the same

258
00:26:26,820 --> 00:26:31,620
Yeah, no, I completely agree. Yeah, also indefinitely for 35 days. Yeah

259
00:26:31,620 --> 00:26:36,020
So so for as long as you want you can keep saying 35 days later

260
00:26:36,900 --> 00:26:43,940
35 days later Okay, you can also restart or shut down without being forced into an update and restart

261
00:26:44,260 --> 00:26:49,100
Previously you got five weeks max before Windows would force these updates

262
00:26:49,100 --> 00:26:54,200
This is only available in the experimental channel, which replaced the old dev and canary channels

263
00:26:54,620 --> 00:26:58,940
Microsoft's own description Features here may change get delayed or not ship at all

264
00:26:58,940 --> 00:27:02,500
So the people testing this are the ones who opted into the most bleeding edge

265
00:27:02,700 --> 00:27:05,220
Pre-release builds because they want updates as early as possible

266
00:27:06,180 --> 00:27:10,980
Regular Windows users who've been getting forced restarted mid-meeting for a decade don't have this yet

267
00:27:10,980 --> 00:27:15,180
And there's no timeline or confirmation for a general rollout. Now

268
00:27:15,660 --> 00:27:21,620
Our discussion question is how did it take Microsoft over a decade to let people decide when their own computer updates and

269
00:27:22,140 --> 00:27:26,220
My crazy hot take responses. I actually don't like this

270
00:27:28,020 --> 00:27:33,020
Crazy people should probably update their computers. I when I did my first

271
00:27:33,620 --> 00:27:38,500
macOS challenge. So the first time I switched to macOS. I think it was on the 5k iMac

272
00:27:39,100 --> 00:27:45,420
Was the first time I like used nothing but I nothing but macOS for 30 days or 60 days or however long it was

273
00:27:45,940 --> 00:27:50,740
The thing that was most life-changing about it for me in a positive way

274
00:27:50,900 --> 00:27:57,980
Was the way that macOS handled updates at that time and it still does actually and that is that it would say

275
00:27:58,020 --> 00:28:02,860
Hey, there's an update like a little you know little thing and then you'd be like

276
00:28:03,380 --> 00:28:11,700
K and Then you would come in the next day in the morning and everything would be exactly where you left it and your computer would have

277
00:28:11,700 --> 00:28:14,580
Installed all the updates and then opened everything back up right where you left it

278
00:28:16,940 --> 00:28:21,020
Pausing updates is not the solution better handling of

279
00:28:21,860 --> 00:28:29,460
Saving all of my work saving my state and then restoring my state and just doing the update when I'm not using my computer is

280
00:28:30,020 --> 00:28:38,700
in my opinion a Way more elegant solution like I I get I get like I get agitated

281
00:28:39,260 --> 00:28:46,580
When you know someone hands me their phone or their computer to use and I see that they're running like a year-old build of

282
00:28:47,140 --> 00:28:55,780
Whatever Something I've really started to enjoy is I actually system update way more often on Linux than I did on Windows

283
00:28:55,780 --> 00:28:58,260
But I really like that it just updates everything

284
00:28:59,260 --> 00:29:07,300
Like that's awesome like I'll get discord updates. I'll get any other software that I have it'll just update my entire system all at once

285
00:29:07,300 --> 00:29:14,340
I'm not individually updating programs Are you asking for the mic? I mean the Microsoft Store is the thing that exists and Windows can manage your updates for you

286
00:29:14,340 --> 00:29:17,340
But I think most of us just make it not terrible though

287
00:29:17,700 --> 00:29:25,300
Like I that but honestly I think that's really the solution like games for Windows would have been fine if it wasn't dog crap

288
00:29:26,100 --> 00:29:32,900
Microsoft Store would be totally fine people like package managers on Linux. They just don't always

289
00:29:34,140 --> 00:29:38,140
Suck complete, but and a lot of them Microsoft

290
00:29:38,140 --> 00:29:43,300
So yeah, the first one that I had on on Kashi sucked and then I went with KDE and now I actually really like it

291
00:29:43,300 --> 00:29:49,100
but And then the one that comes packages with mint is like fantastic to be honest

292
00:29:49,100 --> 00:29:54,000
But it's it's very up and down but the Microsoft Store in my opinion is like the the problem

293
00:29:54,480 --> 00:30:01,360
Yeah, and the fact that Windows update and the Microsoft Store are not integrated. Yeah, like crazy

294
00:30:02,080 --> 00:30:08,360
Like if the best way to install stuff on Windows was Microsoft Store because Microsoft Store wasn't an annoying piece of crap and

295
00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:12,000
Also, because that way it would just auto update along with Windows update

296
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:16,920
I just made everything really smooth and like why do I have to go digging for a driver update?

297
00:30:16,920 --> 00:30:23,160
And I know that Microsoft has actually done a lot of really good work around like automatic driver management

298
00:30:23,200 --> 00:30:25,400
but the fact that some of it is

299
00:30:26,640 --> 00:30:33,620
Over here and some of it is like it'll never update unless I like go and get it and some of it is handled by like

300
00:30:34,040 --> 00:30:39,200
Armory crate and some of it is in Windows update and like the fact that it's everywhere is

301
00:30:41,160 --> 00:30:51,080
It's one of those things where The first thing that someone would would tell me from Microsoft or even you know a viewer would tell me is well, that's not

302
00:30:51,800 --> 00:30:55,040
X's fault, you know, or that's because of

303
00:30:55,640 --> 00:31:03,080
You know this and that might be true It can still be solved and and you know what those things are super super true

304
00:31:04,280 --> 00:31:10,720
But you know what as as a user from a user perspective, I don't give a flying who's fault it is

305
00:31:10,720 --> 00:31:16,720
Yeah, it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter what matters is that it's a terrible user experience and

306
00:31:17,440 --> 00:31:20,800
Somebody needs to fix it like the way that

307
00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:29,200
This is while you think of that This is what I'm talking about like all the time when I talk about how it's actually it's not even here right now

308
00:31:29,200 --> 00:31:33,800
So I keep just trying it but my my laptop when I talk about how it's actually easier and like

309
00:31:34,760 --> 00:31:39,240
Less annoyance and more productivity to use it. This is what I'm talking about

310
00:31:39,240 --> 00:31:46,840
I don't have to go around and update all these individual apps I'm not like part way through working on something and then I need to open another app to do something and oh my god

311
00:31:46,840 --> 00:31:53,440
Now that needs an update whatever. No, I just update once and it does everything and it's fine and it works

312
00:31:53,840 --> 00:32:01,360
It's great. Everyone Freaks you out when you go to any arch based distro because they're like oh, it's rolling you're gonna update

313
00:32:01,360 --> 00:32:07,600
It's gonna break everything When I go to update on Kashi, it checks arch news. Oh

314
00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:13,360
No, it and it'll be like oh no this one might require manual intervention

315
00:32:13,360 --> 00:32:17,640
You might not want to solve this right now and it's like okay, and I just close it and then I wait until it doesn't

316
00:32:18,640 --> 00:32:24,960
Just do it that way like it's Harry G made a good point the driver nightmares because of third parties

317
00:32:24,960 --> 00:32:28,200
They don't want to ship their drivers view Windows update because they can't bundle their bloatware with it

318
00:32:28,360 --> 00:32:32,960
So then Microsoft should just straight up stop Wickel certifying anything that

319
00:32:33,320 --> 00:32:40,320
Requires bloatware to be shipped with it like these are things that Microsoft flex your muscle man does like they're they flex their muscle to do

320
00:32:40,320 --> 00:32:47,320
the wrong things Like they're flexing their muscle to put stupid candy crush in my stupid operating system

321
00:32:47,320 --> 00:32:54,640
No flex your muscle to do things that enhance the user experience and make Windows more secure and

322
00:32:55,560 --> 00:32:58,800
Faster and more powerful and more usable

323
00:32:59,800 --> 00:33:02,000
All right, let's jump into

324
00:33:03,680 --> 00:33:07,400
Okay, this is one of our bad news is for this week

325
00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:15,640
Intel has reportedly canceled discreet gaming GPUs in the upcoming XE 3p arc

326
00:33:16,320 --> 00:33:20,040
Celestial family according to Intel leaker Jake Hain

327
00:33:20,720 --> 00:33:29,920
Intel canceled their discreet GPUs So these are the add-in cards for Celestial long ago. That means that the arc B580

328
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:37,360
So this is their battle mage generation will remain Intel's latest gaming GPU with no clear successor in sight

329
00:33:38,040 --> 00:33:44,520
XE 3p will show up in data center and workstation products. Just not gaming cards

330
00:33:44,800 --> 00:33:49,600
The next gen XE 4 druid architecture is expected late 2027

331
00:33:49,720 --> 00:33:52,640
but whether it gets a gaming GPU in

332
00:33:53,200 --> 00:33:59,480
Jake Hinn's words is up in the air Intel has not confirmed or denied any of this

333
00:33:59,920 --> 00:34:07,740
Our discussion question here is if Intel quietly walks away from gaming GPUs. What happens to GPU pricing?

334
00:34:08,440 --> 00:34:10,600
The answer is it goes up

335
00:34:12,600 --> 00:34:17,520
However, however, the answer is nothing however, unfortunately, I

336
00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:25,080
I really want to keep the faith. This is something that me to former Intel CEO Pat Gelsinger

337
00:34:25,800 --> 00:34:30,240
allowed to continue Intel's discreet GPU

338
00:34:30,880 --> 00:34:33,840
Ambitions and I really hope that liputan

339
00:34:34,440 --> 00:34:43,560
Does not kill. I know that there's a lot of like issues with the consumer cards that you know, like being low-margin and

340
00:34:44,600 --> 00:34:53,360
Catering to a super noisy high maintenance customer base. Let's face it gamers are not the easiest customers to deal with

341
00:34:54,160 --> 00:34:56,840
but I really do believe and

342
00:34:57,800 --> 00:35:04,320
If they're the strongest argument that I can make for this is so does Jensen Huang who is the CEO of

343
00:35:05,000 --> 00:35:12,000
From time to time the world's most valuable company I really do believe that the innovation on the gaming side

344
00:35:12,520 --> 00:35:15,400
makes the enterprise and professional

345
00:35:16,120 --> 00:35:20,600
sides better and stronger for all the work that they do and

346
00:35:21,080 --> 00:35:28,640
Also gives you a volume market that you can dump silicon into to help fund all the development that you need to do like you

347
00:35:28,640 --> 00:35:34,320
I don't think it makes sense to build a GPU business that doesn't have a consumer ARM

348
00:35:34,600 --> 00:35:40,880
If you've all like you've already done so much of the work for alchemist and battle mage

349
00:35:41,240 --> 00:35:45,920
To fix the backwards compatibility and to refine the architecture

350
00:35:46,920 --> 00:35:51,600
Please please just give us a bigger desktop version of

351
00:35:52,720 --> 00:35:56,440
You know what you're already shipping like amazing

352
00:35:57,720 --> 00:36:05,120
Technology on on like laptop like please don't let it die and if you have to skip celestial

353
00:36:05,920 --> 00:36:09,160
Fine don't skip druid. Don't skip druid

354
00:36:10,000 --> 00:36:14,920
We need more options and gamers. It's like the Windows thing like gamers are

355
00:36:15,040 --> 00:36:24,400
They're mad at Microsoft. They're mad at NVIDIA But you've got to give them a better option or they're just gonna begrudgingly stay there forever and like oh man

356
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:30,240
Like Intel continues to put in the work on the software side. You've got to give us hardware to run it on

357
00:36:32,120 --> 00:36:35,000
Let's go yeah, you know yeah

358
00:36:37,600 --> 00:36:39,600
Thank you for coming to my TED talk

359
00:36:42,680 --> 00:36:50,600
Dan what are we supposed to be doing? You can keep doing topics or we can do the CW announcement. Oh, I feel like I should probably talk about the CW announcements

360
00:36:50,600 --> 00:36:54,600
Do you want to do you want to fire up the site? Sure this week? It's a huge

361
00:36:55,200 --> 00:36:59,080
Week for a creator warehouse. Is shipstorms still running?

362
00:37:01,920 --> 00:37:05,920
Yes, looks like it I believe so so the shipstorm sale is

363
00:37:06,480 --> 00:37:10,240
Still running so now is an amazing time to pick up

364
00:37:10,560 --> 00:37:13,960
I mean basically anything at LTT Store

365
00:37:13,960 --> 00:37:19,600
So we've got buy more save more on our blank t-shirts. We've got deals running on our scribe driver bolt action

366
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:26,240
Pen and pencil as well as our long sleeve t-shirts and then hold on hold on

367
00:37:26,240 --> 00:37:29,760
Let me see if I can find the details and we have some super cool new items

368
00:37:29,760 --> 00:37:36,040
So shipstorm a free shipping across Canada on orders over 150 and worldwide on over orders over 225

369
00:37:36,040 --> 00:37:40,720
And then on the US site. Oh, no, I wish I had these details ready. I'm so sorry you guys

370
00:37:41,720 --> 00:37:46,000
That that and then on the US site shipstorm is yeah

371
00:37:46,360 --> 00:37:51,840
Free US wide shipping on orders over 150 and then Floatplane supporter plus

372
00:37:51,840 --> 00:37:56,800
So if you're on Floatplane at the supporter plus tier, it actually goes down to just a hundred US dollars

373
00:37:56,800 --> 00:38:01,840
So it's a great time to join Floatplane. Also. We have some new arrivals

374
00:38:02,440 --> 00:38:08,280
So yeah, we'll put that Luke's laptop. We have some new prints for our party shirts

375
00:38:08,720 --> 00:38:13,560
Yeah, these are flipping amazing want to give us want to give us a close-up of that

376
00:38:15,720 --> 00:38:22,040
Are you serious right now laptop zoom this touchpad is a little weird. It's not the site. It's the touchpad cursors. Yeah

377
00:38:22,880 --> 00:38:29,240
Some of them are our our glasses. How cute is that hands some of them are pointers, right? That's fun

378
00:38:29,240 --> 00:38:34,320
Yeah, and then we've also got okay. This one's this one's sick

379
00:38:34,600 --> 00:38:37,760
Let's are you okay? That works. It's there we go

380
00:38:37,760 --> 00:38:45,960
Yeah, so this is like a very kind of 90s and like 90s screensaver and computing and also

381
00:38:45,960 --> 00:38:51,040
I don't know work from home. It's got a whole bunch of different like vibes like work from the beach

382
00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:55,040
Kind of yeah, like the palm trees and stuff just like

383
00:38:55,640 --> 00:38:59,840
Don't mind me here chilling on my like CRT laptop or whatever

384
00:38:59,840 --> 00:39:03,280
And then this one's meant to just be like a very wearable

385
00:39:03,960 --> 00:39:12,200
Lollipop Lollipop print totally not inspired by anything else that looks like that. It's lollipops. It's

386
00:39:12,960 --> 00:39:19,000
It's it's it's candies. It's umbrellas. It definitely is not a beach ball

387
00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:28,280
100% not a beach ball. We've also got the spinning wheel of death pin set. Okay. Well now we've

388
00:39:28,680 --> 00:39:35,800
Really gotten rid of any plausible deniability that we could have had around where that design inspiration came from

389
00:39:35,800 --> 00:39:41,800
So here's our pin set that is yeah, definitely not a beach ball except for the one that definitely is a beach ball

390
00:39:41,800 --> 00:39:44,880
So we've got candy umbrella as well as a lollipop in there

391
00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:52,240
What else do we got? Yo, yeah, so you can get yours at LMG GG slash party shirt and LMG GG slash

392
00:39:52,520 --> 00:40:01,840
wheel of death If you're looking for something that's a little bit more low-key, we've also got two new polo colors plus a restock on

393
00:40:02,000 --> 00:40:08,120
Black so soft cotton blend with a bit of stretch so it's comfortable without feeling sloppy clean simple look that works

394
00:40:08,120 --> 00:40:14,520
Whether you dress it up or keep it casual These are just easy to put on pieces that go with pretty much anything and that you can wear it pretty much

395
00:40:14,960 --> 00:40:19,000
Anywhere and you can shop at LMG GG slash polos

396
00:40:19,200 --> 00:40:24,720
We also do this kind of fun thing where we have like a little kind of splash of accent color down there

397
00:40:24,720 --> 00:40:29,760
There you go polo shirts dress blues brilliant white and black

398
00:40:31,440 --> 00:40:34,080
Look a bunch of happier pluff looks come on Reese would kill you to spot

399
00:40:35,520 --> 00:40:38,640
Love that guy. We we did an upgrade for him yesterday

400
00:40:38,960 --> 00:40:42,040
We're bringing back setup doctor and his setup

401
00:40:42,640 --> 00:40:48,360
Needed some doctoring. He streams he games. He does like unboxings of fancy shoes

402
00:40:48,880 --> 00:40:56,320
He had so many shoes So we helped a little bit with the organization of that. We got him like a new desk set up and he tufts

403
00:40:57,640 --> 00:41:05,200
That's like carpet tufting and so we got like a like a much more ergonomic space efficient setup in his little room

404
00:41:05,200 --> 00:41:10,480
He does all those things. So that was a that was a fun shoot guys. Don't miss that one lots of good vibes

405
00:41:11,720 --> 00:41:16,640
Also, okay. Yeah, that's pretty much it. So yeah now's a great time to get an order in also

406
00:41:16,640 --> 00:41:21,040
I think that a lot of people probably missed it, but

407
00:41:23,200 --> 00:41:31,680
Hold on where are they? Yeah cables so we did have a small restock hit our us distribution hub today for true spec cables

408
00:41:33,320 --> 00:41:38,700
Okay, yeah, many of the sizes are already out of stock again

409
00:41:39,160 --> 00:41:45,080
The only way that you're gonna have a shot of getting these guys is to make sure

410
00:41:45,920 --> 00:41:50,000
That you get the notify me because when they hit

411
00:41:50,680 --> 00:41:59,120
they're gone so There's nothing I can do about that. It's in priority sequence. You guys got a you got to get in there

412
00:41:59,480 --> 00:42:06,280
So yeah, we had an order hit today and then you can actually you can actually see in the dashboard where it hits

413
00:42:07,320 --> 00:42:12,160
Here check this out. This is hilarious Uh

414
00:42:13,800 --> 00:42:18,480
Gee Luke Can you tell me where the cable restock was?

415
00:42:19,520 --> 00:42:23,960
Yeah, I mean, maybe we're there. Maybe we're the snake ate the deer. Yeah

416
00:42:24,960 --> 00:42:26,960
Yeah, so yeah

417
00:42:28,240 --> 00:42:34,880
So make sure you do that All right, two comms. Oh, right. So if you're placing an order now

418
00:42:34,880 --> 00:42:39,600
It's a perfect time because we have what we call check out messages

419
00:42:39,600 --> 00:42:45,600
We when we stream, we don't want you guys to just throw money at us for nothing. We want to work for it

420
00:42:45,600 --> 00:42:49,600
That's right me Luke and Dan. We all want to work for it. So

421
00:42:51,400 --> 00:42:55,120
Instead of having people just send like twitch bits or super chats or whatever

422
00:42:55,120 --> 00:42:58,240
We created what are called check out messages or comms

423
00:42:58,400 --> 00:43:05,400
All you got to do to send one is head on over to lttstore.com add something like our new flex pants to your cart and

424
00:43:05,760 --> 00:43:11,480
Go to the checkout There it is you can choose to have it displayed as a checkout message

425
00:43:11,480 --> 00:43:19,140
You can make your name anonymous or you can show your name You can send a little message and then you can choose your color and whether or not you want to opt into email

426
00:43:19,280 --> 00:43:22,440
Communication about your message. This will help us follow things up with you if you want

427
00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:26,600
All right, then you go ahead and place your order and it will go to producer Dan

428
00:43:26,720 --> 00:43:32,200
I already waved. I don't know what to do now You'll have to come up with something with the other hand. Nice

429
00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:42,880
It looks weird. I'm not used to doing that. It hurts Anyway, it'll go to producer Dan who will reply to your checkout message or will pop it up down here or up there

430
00:43:42,880 --> 00:43:48,600
Or who will curate it for me and Luke and I'm often Dan to respond to Dan

431
00:43:48,600 --> 00:43:53,840
Do you want to do a couple for us? Yeah, sure. Hey, Daniel. I'm currently visiting Vancouver with my wife and kids

432
00:43:53,840 --> 00:43:58,600
I had no idea. It was so beautiful. Capilino Park is awesome

433
00:43:58,600 --> 00:44:04,080
Yeah, do any of you guys go hiking or anything like that? Not as much as I should

434
00:44:05,840 --> 00:44:10,040
Literally we were like flying over

435
00:44:10,040 --> 00:44:13,720
the the like outer Vancouver region and

436
00:44:14,480 --> 00:44:21,120
I was like Luke did you have any idea that there were this many hiking trails in this area a lot

437
00:44:21,120 --> 00:44:28,800
But it looked like a wherever we particularly were at the time I think it was over like Chilliwack or whatever. That's very likely. Yeah, it looks like a video game map

438
00:44:29,280 --> 00:44:32,160
It was like there was just so many trails

439
00:44:33,360 --> 00:44:37,840
And they weren't they didn't seem to be like dried riverbeds like they seemed to be

440
00:44:38,520 --> 00:44:43,800
Hiking trails. Yeah. Oh, yeah, the entire area was just littered with them and I was like

441
00:44:44,280 --> 00:44:50,960
How have I never been on any of these some of them are pretty great. Absolutely ridiculous. Sheen is pretty legendary

442
00:44:51,240 --> 00:44:58,120
Um, so yeah, we should have you ever done the grind. No, I've always gone the other way

443
00:44:58,760 --> 00:45:08,240
Gone the other way. Yeah What's the other way? Isn't the grind north van? Yeah. Yeah, I've always gone like oh, oh, I thought you might you've always like gone down it

444
00:45:08,240 --> 00:45:11,400
I take that. Yeah, I take that going to look up

445
00:45:12,240 --> 00:45:18,280
You're literally not even allowed like it's that'd be that'd also be the one way that would be really bad for my knees

446
00:45:18,280 --> 00:45:24,000
Yeah Okay, well if you ever want to do the grind I'll do the grind it's called the gross grind

447
00:45:24,000 --> 00:45:29,680
It's on gross mountain. You can like hike up the mountain. It's yeah, it's pretty savage

448
00:45:29,680 --> 00:45:36,200
Yeah, wait till your knees. It's more of like a workout. Yeah, what you might expect from a traditional hike. This is fair

449
00:45:36,200 --> 00:45:41,060
It's just like an incredible amount of stairs Which is awesome. There's people that do it like literally every day

450
00:45:42,160 --> 00:45:46,760
Like it's it's great. It's just it's a quite a bit of a different experience from what I've heard

451
00:45:47,640 --> 00:45:51,120
my brother Shot up there recently I

452
00:45:52,000 --> 00:45:59,800
Wanda DLL first off San update when I'm a storage and backup engineer and that is my daily bread and butter

453
00:46:00,280 --> 00:46:07,160
Second did you consider any centralized backup solution? Also? Why no why so few tall sure now?

454
00:46:07,160 --> 00:46:16,000
I can see why you curated this one Dan It's a really good question. We are Linus. We are expanding slowly our selection of tall

455
00:46:16,560 --> 00:46:21,920
merchandise We just we have to be we have to go slow and steady sure

456
00:46:22,360 --> 00:46:28,040
This may be a surprise to you and all of you, but physical goods are an extremely

457
00:46:28,880 --> 00:46:38,640
cash-flow sensitive business They every new product requires a brand new upfront investment that may or may not pay off

458
00:46:38,640 --> 00:46:44,880
And we just have to be careful. We have to go slow. We have to be careful. We don't we're not taking private equity

459
00:46:44,920 --> 00:46:52,400
We don't have outside investors. So every time we launch a new product. That's the product team

460
00:46:53,040 --> 00:46:59,880
Working with me and working with our other leadership and going okay. Here's all the chips. These are our chips here

461
00:46:59,880 --> 00:47:03,120
We are betting them Let's hope it pays off

462
00:47:03,120 --> 00:47:08,600
It doesn't always we've got to be careful. It's it really is that simple and also complicated

463
00:47:08,600 --> 00:47:13,880
I think I think the new the new war is gonna have to be over pants

464
00:47:14,280 --> 00:47:18,400
Tall pants. I know when when we're not even necessarily tall pants just

465
00:47:19,120 --> 00:47:27,160
When you guys launch the flex pants, I was really surprised the inseam length was 29 and then on on on an internet forum

466
00:47:27,920 --> 00:47:31,440
Somebody posted like wow LTT Store really makes me feel really tall

467
00:47:32,440 --> 00:47:39,560
And it was in relation to those pants cuz they're like wait inseam 29 is is all the yeah

468
00:47:40,400 --> 00:47:46,840
Yeah Pants are tough man. There's yeah, you have to have all the waist sizes

469
00:47:47,600 --> 00:47:53,120
Ideally you would have all the inseam sizes. We've done as much as two inseam sizes for a pair of pants

470
00:47:53,640 --> 00:48:00,360
I believe the cargo pants we have two inseams for yeah, and it literally double like you got it

471
00:48:00,360 --> 00:48:04,080
You got to think about it in terms of skew count you literally double your skew count

472
00:48:04,080 --> 00:48:09,960
And if we still had everything consolidated at a single distribution center, that would be a little bit easier

473
00:48:10,400 --> 00:48:17,520
But every additional layer of complexity you add it's a multiplier. Yeah, it's not additive. It's

474
00:48:18,400 --> 00:48:27,800
multiplicative so was that like I'm just genuinely curious you've sold pants before so was that like did we have was most of our orders 29 or like

475
00:48:27,800 --> 00:48:37,200
How did we land on 29? We landed on that as sort of a like a best middle ground for most people really. Yeah

476
00:48:40,000 --> 00:48:48,120
Okay, yep, and What we would have probably done if we had another skew is we would have gone longer. Yeah

477
00:48:49,080 --> 00:48:53,280
But that was one of those ones where the tech pants are 30 and 32

478
00:48:54,280 --> 00:48:58,560
Hey, people also got a kick out of you guys calling tall 32

479
00:49:02,440 --> 00:49:07,200
There's degrees of tall I'm a 32

480
00:49:07,320 --> 00:49:14,680
So yeah, yeah, it's tall dance pretty tall. What do we call it? Stumpy legs Jonathan and Conrad and Lucas and those guys

481
00:49:14,680 --> 00:49:18,560
I mean Lucas towers. Yeah, like

482
00:49:19,560 --> 00:49:27,440
Okay, San update I am still not convinced that San is the right solution for us. I've

483
00:49:28,040 --> 00:49:32,120
Every time I've asked someone who's very pro storage area network

484
00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:37,880
Why we should have one? They have not given me a satisfactory answer

485
00:49:39,800 --> 00:49:45,760
Naz seems like the way to go for us. I we don't have the same kind of like

486
00:49:46,760 --> 00:49:51,840
Resiliency and like like cross org access complications that

487
00:49:52,680 --> 00:50:00,280
That you might have if you're like I I don't know flipping like multinational or if you're or if you're like, you know

488
00:50:00,280 --> 00:50:04,720
You're running a data center that has you know CPU compute over here and GPU compute over here

489
00:50:04,720 --> 00:50:09,360
So you need to have like a storage network that they all access like we don't have any of those use cases

490
00:50:09,360 --> 00:50:11,360
We just have individual users

491
00:50:12,400 --> 00:50:15,280
accessing file level resources

492
00:50:15,760 --> 00:50:20,160
That are centrally stored. Can someone explain to me why we need San?

493
00:50:24,240 --> 00:50:27,200
Like Floatplane has San. Yeah Floatplane does but

494
00:50:28,240 --> 00:50:34,400
Do we have no safe right? Yeah. Do we have no safe locally? I don't think so. I don't think there was a reason to

495
00:50:36,560 --> 00:50:39,840
It was a pitch at one point. Yeah, and then we didn't go there

496
00:50:40,640 --> 00:50:46,400
It's all of redundancy. Yeah, but we don't need that much redundancy

497
00:50:46,400 --> 00:50:50,760
We have the one share that is like the current projects

498
00:50:51,280 --> 00:51:00,720
actually redundant and replicated places share and then everything else we made a conscious decision and it's been it, you know, it

499
00:51:02,000 --> 00:51:08,720
It's it's funny for me seeing people sort of go. Oh, remember that time they lost date. Yes. Yes. Yes

500
00:51:08,960 --> 00:51:12,960
We we've Other than okay when we lost Wanik that was bad

501
00:51:13,120 --> 00:51:19,200
But the time that our vault had some data loss We had made a conscious decision that this was non essential

502
00:51:19,520 --> 00:51:27,280
Archived data and that if we lost it we had decided that it was not worth the additional expense of replicating that storage

503
00:51:27,600 --> 00:51:31,840
And that's especially true today man storage has gotten so expensive

504
00:51:32,320 --> 00:51:40,400
And so we've made the decision That we only really need the projects we're working on and every other like random snippet of footage if we lost it

505
00:51:40,400 --> 00:51:42,960
We lost it. It doesn't really matter and so

506
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:50,480
Going for something more complicated More expensive that requires more administration

507
00:51:51,200 --> 00:51:54,720
I just I don't

508
00:51:55,840 --> 00:51:57,840
Um, I don't see the point

509
00:51:59,120 --> 00:52:02,880
Or are you talking are you literally talking to aj and chat right now and jonathan they're both in here

510
00:52:03,120 --> 00:52:07,520
We do have seph on prem It's just in the lab and it's just an mvp right now

511
00:52:07,760 --> 00:52:13,040
Sure, and there's only a few things kind of running into it But the thing is when you take aj and jonathan

512
00:52:13,520 --> 00:52:17,360
And you throw them in the pool of it people that do stuff for LMG

513
00:52:18,080 --> 00:52:22,800
They come from seph and kubernetes land. Yep. So like it

514
00:52:24,160 --> 00:52:27,200
Why not it becomes I think a lot more reasonable

515
00:52:28,000 --> 00:52:32,240
It's it's a right tool for the right job for the right person type of situation

516
00:52:32,880 --> 00:52:39,520
We have aj and jonathan. We might as well do this thing. It doesn't really mean that it's a recommendation for everybody

517
00:52:40,160 --> 00:52:49,520
um Like tcl 987 says I would think you'd want san for running vm's so that a storage node going down doesn't take down the vm's too

518
00:52:51,680 --> 00:52:56,160
In terms of like like critical on the media group side

519
00:52:56,800 --> 00:53:01,680
And the creator warehouse side which make up the majority of our revenue

520
00:53:03,680 --> 00:53:07,040
I can think of like a couple of vm's we run

521
00:53:08,480 --> 00:53:18,080
Like sure on the Floatplane side Yeah, yeah, sure you're a hundred percent right like you want that redundancy built into that storage network that everything else is using but yeah

522
00:53:18,720 --> 00:53:20,720
for video editing

523
00:53:22,640 --> 00:53:25,840
We don't we don't have nodes of storage

524
00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:29,840
We just have a storage server that every periodically

525
00:53:30,800 --> 00:53:32,800
Backs up to another one

526
00:53:34,160 --> 00:53:38,880
So if Floatplane was on prem you need it Floatplane has it anyways. Yeah, I just I just said that

527
00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:46,000
Yeah, yeah um, oh faint lock it asks can you explain what san is

528
00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:51,600
so Basically the idea is that instead of having your storage

529
00:53:52,160 --> 00:53:57,440
In each machine right like this and this and then like allocating

530
00:53:57,920 --> 00:54:03,200
You know like instead of putting like a drive into your computer and going okay here virtual machine

531
00:54:03,520 --> 00:54:07,840
This is like your drive san is an entire

532
00:54:08,880 --> 00:54:14,640
An entire separate network of machines whose entire job is to provide storage

533
00:54:15,040 --> 00:54:20,880
For all the other machines on the network big pools. Yeah, so whether whether their job is to

534
00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:24,080
run vm's or whether their job is to

535
00:54:25,040 --> 00:54:29,040
Serve media or whether their job is for the editors to access it

536
00:54:29,680 --> 00:54:34,960
All of these compute resources will just instead of having local storage

537
00:54:35,600 --> 00:54:39,680
Over the network. They will access this this storage network

538
00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:43,280
Which is entirely separate boxes that maybe don't need a ton of compute

539
00:54:43,680 --> 00:54:51,600
But do need like a but ton of storage and then this this storage network is going to be built with redundancies and and

540
00:54:51,680 --> 00:54:55,440
safeties that make it so that if one of these machines goes down

541
00:54:56,160 --> 00:55:00,320
All the other machines that are doing all of your web serving and all of your

542
00:55:00,960 --> 00:55:07,520
Your compute or all of your research or whatever it is They're doing are still able to access their storage as if nothing happened

543
00:55:07,600 --> 00:55:14,000
So it's a way of of distributing your storage to make it so that a failure will

544
00:55:14,720 --> 00:55:19,040
Not impact your operation at all rather than taking down one of your nodes

545
00:55:19,520 --> 00:55:23,600
But we have so few nodes outside of the Floatplane side

546
00:55:25,680 --> 00:55:32,400
And so little critical critical infrastructure that I just I just not convinced that it is relevant for us

547
00:55:32,960 --> 00:55:40,240
um Yeah, torpedo bench describes it as kind of like raid but at a much bigger scale and and that's kind of a way of

548
00:55:40,320 --> 00:55:45,360
Thinking about it instead of your one machine having multiple drives one of which could fail

549
00:55:46,160 --> 00:55:53,360
all of your machines Have like a bunch of machines that have a bunch of drives in them and an entire machine could fail

550
00:55:53,760 --> 00:55:59,280
And then they'd be able to still access it It's that's it's kind of a it's kind of a neat way of thinking about it

551
00:55:59,360 --> 00:56:01,840
And then nas is more like

552
00:56:02,400 --> 00:56:05,760
Like it's like a storage area network that only that's not really a network

553
00:56:06,080 --> 00:56:10,800
It's just it's just a a standalone resource that all of those things can access

554
00:56:11,200 --> 00:56:16,480
Over the network that might have some redundancy in the form of in the form of raid for instance

555
00:56:16,560 --> 00:56:22,480
But it doesn't have like multi machine level redundancy. That's about the kind of simplest way that I can

556
00:56:24,000 --> 00:56:26,000
Summarize it

557
00:56:29,920 --> 00:56:31,920
Okay, yeah time to do more topics

558
00:56:34,960 --> 00:56:39,760
Uh, no Legendary z-snash nintendo emulator

559
00:56:40,240 --> 00:56:48,720
Has been rewritten from scratch with GPU acceleration the original developers of z-snash or zsnes or zsnes

560
00:56:49,440 --> 00:56:52,320
Whatever you want to call it zsnite and demo

561
00:56:53,120 --> 00:56:57,920
Are back together for the first time in nearly two decades with super

562
00:56:58,880 --> 00:57:06,240
zsnes a complete ground-up rewrite of the legendary snes emulator that dates back to the dos era

563
00:57:06,560 --> 00:57:12,720
And the first nintendo super nintendo emulator that I ever used I have personally played through

564
00:57:13,600 --> 00:57:19,520
Final fantasy six on this emulator chrono trigger on this emulator like man

565
00:57:19,600 --> 00:57:22,080
I have very fond memories of using this

566
00:57:22,720 --> 00:57:30,640
oftentimes uncooperative but Quite quite treasured piece of software. It was what yeah, it was what everybody used for a long time

567
00:57:30,800 --> 00:57:35,200
The last major release was almost 20 years ago though

568
00:57:35,680 --> 00:57:40,720
So big change here is a GPU powered ppu core that enables high res mode seven

569
00:57:41,360 --> 00:57:44,240
widescreen support in support of games

570
00:57:44,800 --> 00:57:47,600
Overclocking for games that were notorious for slowdown

571
00:57:48,160 --> 00:57:52,400
uncompressed audio and per game visual enhancements that the devs are calling

572
00:57:52,880 --> 00:57:58,800
Super enhancement engine. It also keeps the classic falling snow ui

573
00:57:59,280 --> 00:58:03,360
It's available now on Windows mac Linux and Android with iOS coming soon

574
00:58:03,440 --> 00:58:08,000
And the devs made a point of listing no vibe coding as an official feature

575
00:58:08,320 --> 00:58:11,280
Everything was handwritten the classic way

576
00:58:12,000 --> 00:58:16,480
Now with that said I have heard that it's a little buggy

577
00:58:17,280 --> 00:58:21,520
It is an early build special chips like chips like the super effects are not supported yet

578
00:58:22,000 --> 00:58:24,640
But in a world where vibe coding is everywhere

579
00:58:25,600 --> 00:58:30,960
Is no vibe coding a selling point for this for you? Would you want to try it? I want to try it. I'm spoiler. I want to try it

580
00:58:31,200 --> 00:58:36,160
Uh I don't know if like

581
00:58:37,200 --> 00:58:43,680
No vibe coding is particularly a selling point, but I'm gonna try anyways. I want to I want to I want to hear you talk about that

582
00:58:46,480 --> 00:58:52,960
If stuff is Properly like I I know people that use vibe coding stuff

583
00:58:53,520 --> 00:58:58,720
In a way that I would consider properly and I know people that use vibe coding in a way that I would

584
00:58:59,600 --> 00:59:02,160
Hyper aggressively not consider properly

585
00:59:02,720 --> 00:59:04,720
um, if these two guys

586
00:59:06,000 --> 00:59:09,520
Said that they Used ai-assisted tools

587
00:59:09,760 --> 00:59:13,600
I don't think I'd be too concerned about it interesting so

588
00:59:13,600 --> 00:59:20,400
to you it's more about Having who's wielding the tool having the skills and having the street cred

589
00:59:21,040 --> 00:59:24,480
to take shortcuts and

590
00:59:24,480 --> 00:59:28,800
no To like review it and make sure that bad stuff doesn't get through still

591
00:59:29,360 --> 00:59:36,400
um Because it also is what also depends like did they say no, okay, so no vibe coding specifically

592
00:59:36,480 --> 00:59:39,520
so okay, maybe yeah, maybe that is particularly a good thing but like

593
00:59:40,640 --> 00:59:46,400
ai-assisted so here's the quote the quote no vibe coding classic development style

594
00:59:46,800 --> 00:59:53,040
But that's pretty ambiguous. Yeah, what's classic well to them 20 years ago might be just no assistance

595
00:59:53,120 --> 00:59:57,200
I don't think it's that they haven't been doing work. They just haven't been working on z-ness. No. Yeah, that's fair

596
00:59:57,680 --> 00:59:59,040
um

597
01:00:03,120 --> 01:00:07,760
Yeah, peter said this and I I mean I've said this on wancho like a billion times and I just still agree with it

598
01:00:08,000 --> 01:00:10,000
The buck stops with the one who commits the code

599
01:00:11,360 --> 01:00:15,280
100 it goes back to that ibm thing that I've also shown on wancho before

600
01:00:15,680 --> 01:00:21,120
um Quote a computer cannot be held responsible

601
01:00:22,080 --> 01:00:26,160
Um, let's find the slide here

602
01:00:28,800 --> 01:00:36,720
A computer cannot be held accountable Therefore a computer must never make a management decision and a management decision is to commit code. So like uh

603
01:00:37,760 --> 01:00:41,120
From the vibe that I get from this team these two people

604
01:00:41,760 --> 01:00:45,920
um, yeah, I mean I wouldn't particularly be too

605
01:00:46,000 --> 01:00:51,120
concerned about it But there there will be people that will vibe code something

606
01:00:51,520 --> 01:00:57,360
And they'll tell me that excitedly and I know who it is and I know how much work and development they've done and I'll be like

607
01:00:57,760 --> 01:01:02,960
Oh boy I'm excited to see how many different ways this breaks. Um

608
01:01:03,680 --> 01:01:07,680
I wonder how many security keys are like hard coded and publicly readable

609
01:01:09,120 --> 01:01:11,360
Like things like that. I have to call me out like that

610
01:01:12,640 --> 01:01:17,520
No, no, that never happened. Oh, no, no Um security key for your google sheet

611
01:01:17,760 --> 01:01:25,200
Yeah Speaking of the Linus vibe coding challenge the project is officially dead. Unfortunately. Yeah in the form of a video

612
01:01:26,080 --> 01:01:31,680
But I'm still trying to uh, I'm still trying to turn it into at least if it can be

613
01:01:32,240 --> 01:01:36,720
If it can be cobbled together relatively easily a Floatplane video or something

614
01:01:37,120 --> 01:01:42,000
So the problem is not that I was not able to vibe code a solution

615
01:01:42,320 --> 01:01:49,920
I was and it's actually been In production since I vibe coded it, which is like six months ago now or something

616
01:01:50,800 --> 01:01:54,560
Which is the problem By the time we would be releasing this video

617
01:01:55,920 --> 01:02:03,360
Everything that I did is so far removed from the current state of AI and vibe coding

618
01:02:03,680 --> 01:02:06,800
That it just doesn't make any sense to talk about it the entire thing

619
01:02:07,200 --> 01:02:11,120
Like yeah, which I could probably do in fact

620
01:02:11,120 --> 01:02:14,080
I could probably do way faster with better tools and now that I've done it

621
01:02:14,320 --> 01:02:19,520
But the entire premise of the video for me was as someone who's never done this

622
01:02:20,480 --> 01:02:25,280
What does that look like and We would no longer be answering that question

623
01:02:25,680 --> 01:02:33,040
The other thing that it wasn't killed because of is our real developer our real developer was able to create a solution

624
01:02:33,840 --> 01:02:40,160
But because of scheduling and stuff and people being busy, I still haven't seen it

625
01:02:42,880 --> 01:02:46,080
So what I was hoping that we could still do is

626
01:02:47,280 --> 01:02:55,040
have um Like have me sit down and like have it shown to me and then

627
01:02:56,960 --> 01:03:05,200
Like yeah, Dan could just kind of walk me through it Yeah, and then we just do that on camera sure and then we can do that as and then I could do like a short little summary

628
01:03:05,520 --> 01:03:08,320
He already walked me through it on camera. Okay, perfect

629
01:03:08,560 --> 01:03:13,200
And then we and then we can just throw that up on flow plane or something like that. Yeah. Um, I know another

630
01:03:13,760 --> 01:03:19,120
Sorry, are you done? No, I just and then I probably I probably need a little bit more of his time though

631
01:03:20,560 --> 01:03:27,920
Because I need it to work for mixed doubles and singles as well Also, ultimately, I mean you you you pay his jack. So well, I know but

632
01:03:28,880 --> 01:03:35,440
But then why did we have to do this whole vibe coding? So the vibe coding challenge started because I needed some development resources for something that didn't really matter

633
01:03:35,920 --> 01:03:39,200
Um, but then then it mattered because it was a video, but then now it's not a video

634
01:03:39,440 --> 01:03:44,400
I feel like it would have been better for us to just say hey, can I have some of Dan Siegel's time?

635
01:03:44,880 --> 01:03:48,960
It's it's easier now and more appropriate now. I think so if you want so this time it makes sense

636
01:03:49,360 --> 01:03:53,600
Uh, I wanted to say one more thing on the super zed schnitz thing. Um

637
01:03:54,480 --> 01:03:57,600
Um I think there's also a like

638
01:03:59,040 --> 01:04:06,320
Can I classify this as a cry wolf problem? I don't know. I watched a short clip last night before completely tearing down my entire computer setup

639
01:04:06,640 --> 01:04:10,800
um of Shroud going back to counter strike

640
01:04:11,040 --> 01:04:15,840
Because I was interested because what I've heard is that counter strike is covered in cheaters

641
01:04:16,560 --> 01:04:21,280
And the title didn't say anything about cheaters. It just said shroud goes back to counter strike in the first time years or whatever

642
01:04:21,440 --> 01:04:24,400
So I watched it in the first two games. He was in there was two blatant cheaters

643
01:04:25,040 --> 01:04:30,560
Um, and it's it's it's this thing where like modern, especially FPS games, but modern

644
01:04:31,200 --> 01:04:38,640
every game Uh, basically don't kid yourself if people like to cheat and like rocket league and mmo's and everything you can imagine

645
01:04:39,200 --> 01:04:41,760
Um with with cheaters freaking everywhere

646
01:04:42,800 --> 01:04:44,800
Something that has ruined

647
01:04:46,800 --> 01:04:52,160
Something that has ruined It's a weird sentence whatever um is

648
01:04:53,520 --> 01:05:00,640
defeat Because it it often feels like there's a built-in excuse for everything. Yes

649
01:05:01,840 --> 01:05:07,360
So if you don't think that people are cheating or if it's they're probably not then it's like, oh, man

650
01:05:07,360 --> 01:05:11,040
That guy's really good. I want to watch this replay and try to learn from them, right?

651
01:05:11,520 --> 01:05:14,880
But if it's like, I don't know there's usually at least one cheater per lobby

652
01:05:15,040 --> 01:05:20,400
Then it's like that guy's just cheating screw that guy and it like it it loses a lot of the like

653
01:05:22,080 --> 01:05:27,600
The interesting nature of losing if that makes yeah, how do you how do you how do you get motivation from loss?

654
01:05:28,720 --> 01:05:33,600
if The how do you get like the competition was never fair. How do you get like a rival?

655
01:05:34,080 --> 01:05:38,080
Yeah, like you know back back when there was dedicated servers and you jump on a server and there was always that

656
01:05:38,560 --> 01:05:46,000
Freaking guy who just yeah, who'd get you like every time Yeah, and then and then you you train and you get better and you beat that guy and then it feels good

657
01:05:46,000 --> 01:05:48,880
Like that that type of stuff is just kind of gone from cheating

658
01:05:49,040 --> 01:05:54,080
And I think something that they're dodging here to bring it back to super SNES super zed SNES

659
01:05:54,640 --> 01:05:59,360
um Is there saying no vibe coding? So if it comes out and it has a bug

660
01:06:01,040 --> 01:06:03,440
You don't get to go. Ah, it's probably just

661
01:06:04,320 --> 01:06:07,680
Modern ai junk spaghetti code, right? They're saying no

662
01:06:08,160 --> 01:06:12,800
No, if there's a bug it's because we did that part. I think we haven't fixed that yet that part

663
01:06:12,800 --> 01:06:14,800
I think is kind of cool. I think that's super cool. Yeah

664
01:06:16,640 --> 01:06:18,640
Yeah, yeah, want to pick a topic sure

665
01:06:20,720 --> 01:06:27,680
Uh, what do we got here? Sony finally responds to playstation drm panic says only a one-time license check is needed

666
01:06:27,920 --> 01:06:32,320
No 30 day requirement This was confusing if you weren't on top of this news because you're a pc person

667
01:06:32,560 --> 01:06:39,920
There was a mysterious 30 day license timer showing up on playstation digital games purchased after march 2026's firmware update

668
01:06:40,160 --> 01:06:47,200
Some people were freaking out. What is this 30 day thing modders on twitter spotted at first but things spiraled when playstation's own

669
01:06:47,760 --> 01:06:52,720
ai support chatbots told users that they'd lose access every 30 days

670
01:06:53,120 --> 01:06:58,080
Unless they were online, which is just not true to be clear. That's just what the chatbot said

671
01:06:58,400 --> 01:07:03,040
With nobody sure what was real players started just testing stuff trying to see what was going on

672
01:07:03,280 --> 01:07:10,880
YouTuber spawn wave pulled his ps5 cmos battery to simulate a timer expiring and watched his brand new digital purchases just

673
01:07:11,440 --> 01:07:16,880
Refused to load with a license error Nice what actually happens if you miss the window

674
01:07:17,360 --> 01:07:25,280
Is that the game stops working until you connect back to the internet? It doesn't delete it or get revoked permanently or anything like that once you're back online access is restored

675
01:07:25,600 --> 01:07:29,600
And I believe once it does that actual check in you do get a permanent token

676
01:07:30,080 --> 01:07:36,640
Sony says that if you launch the game once while connected a one-time check kicks in and the 30 day timer won't apply at all

677
01:07:36,720 --> 01:07:39,840
Ever again, it's fine. Okay, but oh

678
01:07:40,400 --> 01:07:45,280
Testing from reset era user and shrew found it's not quite that simple

679
01:07:45,280 --> 01:07:53,200
There appears to be around a 15 day delay before the console actually converts your temporary license into a permanent one

680
01:07:53,520 --> 01:08:01,280
A permanent offline one Until that conversion happens going offline for 30 days will lock you out that 15 day window lines up

681
01:08:02,000 --> 01:08:06,960
Suspiciously close to playstation's 14 day refund period suggesting

682
01:08:07,920 --> 01:08:13,280
That this might have been an anti fraud measure because apparently some people were buying games

683
01:08:14,080 --> 01:08:18,080
Going offline having their offline version refunding the game

684
01:08:18,480 --> 01:08:24,960
Right Yeah, uh, sony hasn't confirmed that part, but apparently that has been happening. So

685
01:08:26,160 --> 01:08:33,760
Yeah, makes sense Sony has now officially responded to game spot saying a one-time check is required to confirm the game's license after which no further check

686
01:08:33,760 --> 01:08:39,680
Is required the drm is real, but it's not the always online nightmare that people feared that said

687
01:08:40,240 --> 01:08:45,680
Sony rolled this out silently and let the panic build for a freaking week before saying a single thing

688
01:08:46,400 --> 01:08:51,360
Ah as a company That's kind of annoying that sometimes

689
01:08:53,040 --> 01:08:56,880
Is Has things

690
01:08:57,440 --> 01:09:01,840
Fester in the community I understand it both ways

691
01:09:03,760 --> 01:09:08,320
I can understand why it seems crazy that sony didn't say anything for a week

692
01:09:09,200 --> 01:09:18,000
And then I can equally understand All the like mechanisms and checks that external comms need to go through

693
01:09:18,720 --> 01:09:22,160
Especially in the midst of a crisis and why it can take a while

694
01:09:23,200 --> 01:09:27,520
I I mean, I'm gonna firmly stand on both sides

695
01:09:30,560 --> 01:09:32,880
Going going wide yes

696
01:09:34,800 --> 01:09:36,800
Strong firm stands

697
01:09:41,440 --> 01:09:46,000
I don't love this. I understand they're whole trying to dodge the fraud thing

698
01:09:46,160 --> 01:09:51,600
Honestly, it seems better than steam and we we hold steam up on this like this pillar

699
01:09:52,800 --> 01:09:56,560
This this pedestal better. How's it better than steam steam checks like all the time

700
01:09:57,440 --> 01:10:01,680
Yeah, but if you go offline, yeah, then it works, which is fine single player games

701
01:10:01,920 --> 01:10:04,880
Yeah, not always they'll they'll make you check once in a while

702
01:10:05,440 --> 01:10:11,040
Oh, yeah, I guess I've never been offline long enough to notice as someone who uh, actually it seems like it's

703
01:10:11,040 --> 01:10:15,600
Been a little better lately, but there was definitely a period where they had cracked down on it quite a bit

704
01:10:16,080 --> 01:10:20,320
And we would really run into it like on set. Can you just run the executables out of the folder?

705
01:10:20,880 --> 01:10:23,760
No, no, because it'll still launch steam and it'll still do a DRM check

706
01:10:24,560 --> 01:10:28,000
So so we'd run into this on set when we only had like one copy of a game

707
01:10:28,000 --> 01:10:33,680
And we'd try to like pull the Ethernet cord and then launch it on the next computer And then pull the Ethernet cord and then launch it on the next one and pull the Ethernet cord

708
01:10:33,920 --> 01:10:38,480
So obviously this is like not a You know classic use case

709
01:10:38,800 --> 01:10:42,240
But I have definitely run up against this

710
01:10:42,720 --> 01:10:46,560
Um, I I haven't ran into I haven't done this often

711
01:10:46,560 --> 01:10:50,480
But I have not ran into it opening steam when you try to just run the executable for the game

712
01:10:50,560 --> 01:10:57,120
I've had it just launched the game Okay, people in chat are saying they definitely do does it depend on the game because from my understanding

713
01:10:57,120 --> 01:11:03,040
I definitely see it depending on it's not like gog where part of the deal is that there's no online DRM

714
01:11:03,120 --> 01:11:07,840
Like with steam there there's online DRM. It's like a feature not a bug

715
01:11:07,840 --> 01:11:12,160
I bet you it depends on you. It depends on whether the game uses steamworks, which is steams DRM

716
01:11:12,240 --> 01:11:17,760
That also makes sense Uh cus cus captain says can you keep your steam deck in offline mode for just a limited amount of time?

717
01:11:17,840 --> 01:11:25,360
Yeah, from my understanding it'll eventually need to phone home But I correct me if I'm wrong. Like I said, this is something that I ran into more before

718
01:11:25,840 --> 01:11:32,000
And lately when we've been doing the Ethernet unplug thing now that I'm thinking about it. It's been a little more successful

719
01:11:32,880 --> 01:11:37,840
um tcl 987 says steamworks and steam DRM are independent

720
01:11:38,480 --> 01:11:42,000
Blah blah blah a lot of games use steam library stuff for networking voice chat, etc

721
01:11:42,000 --> 01:11:45,280
Yeah, so it's probably gonna be dependent on the game somewhat

722
01:11:46,080 --> 01:11:52,480
um Man one thing that I find really annoying as somebody who has to set up a system

723
01:11:52,960 --> 01:11:58,160
For travel probably more often than most people because when I'm traveling is often when I'll have time to like oh, yeah

724
01:11:58,720 --> 01:12:03,520
I'm gonna try out the steam controller So I need like to load a bunch of games onto a system before I go

725
01:12:04,080 --> 01:12:10,960
I really really wish there was a way to with one button like do the pre-launch crap

726
01:12:11,840 --> 01:12:14,880
For every game on my system because if I'm like

727
01:12:15,840 --> 01:12:23,680
If I have no internet or I'm or I'm somewhere remote with very slow internet or whatever like okay like installing stuff

728
01:12:23,680 --> 01:12:30,800
Not shaders you mean no like get the dot net whatever get the redistributable whatever install all dependencies

729
01:12:30,960 --> 01:12:40,320
Do your DRM check? Yeah, like to Install all dependencies because like it's it's it's become it's become more and more of an annoyance over time

730
01:12:40,480 --> 01:12:45,360
How many steam games have other launchers or have random dependencies?

731
01:12:45,840 --> 01:12:49,440
Especially on Linux, uh, which I've been using more lately

732
01:12:50,240 --> 01:12:53,040
Where they'll have to grab like proton crap ahead of time

733
01:12:53,920 --> 01:12:58,800
So if I so if installing the game Installed the game

734
01:12:59,040 --> 01:13:02,720
So that I just click go and it goes I would actually I would love that

735
01:13:02,720 --> 01:13:07,840
So if valve is taking suggestions right now, uh, that's something that I'd love to see steam

736
01:13:08,480 --> 01:13:12,080
Level up on ever so slightly when I install a game do all of it

737
01:13:12,640 --> 01:13:17,040
Assume that my intention when I install a game is to play the game

738
01:13:17,760 --> 01:13:23,040
Um, not just not just enjoy it being in my ready to play filter

739
01:13:23,840 --> 01:13:25,840
Um

740
01:13:27,360 --> 01:13:30,720
Okay, uh Ignacy

741
01:13:30,720 --> 01:13:34,880
Says as a game dev requiring steam is a toggle in the stk API

742
01:13:35,040 --> 01:13:40,880
Yeah, okay game either confirm steam is open and connected on steamworks initialization or it doesn't so that explains why

743
01:13:41,040 --> 01:13:46,720
So we've just tried to open different games. We both would have had completely different experiences because both are both are true

744
01:13:46,800 --> 01:13:52,960
That makes sense. Um It's not like a thing I do all the time. So I wasn't super confident

745
01:13:54,480 --> 01:14:01,600
Also, okay Oh, we should probably uh do some show sponsors. The show is brought to you today by

746
01:14:02,880 --> 01:14:07,600
Vessy Earlier this week. We did a fun breakdown of valve steam controller

747
01:14:07,680 --> 01:14:10,880
But today we need to stop talk about something that's even more important

748
01:14:11,520 --> 01:14:13,600
A rain and moisture controller

749
01:14:15,040 --> 01:14:18,400

01:14:18,800 --> 01:14:22,800
Oh But vessy makes shoes that they claim are 100 waterproof

752
01:14:27,520 --> 01:14:32,640
This is thanks to vessy's diamatex material Which also makes the shoes lightweight and easy to pack on trips

758
01:15:07,520 --> 01:15:12,320
I don't know what that has to do with vessy's but sure I mean he's like splooshes when you land

759
01:15:12,400 --> 01:15:15,600
I guess The show is also brought to you by odo

760

You know what the l in Linus stands for?

778
01:16:47,840 --> 01:16:51,280
Oh, there's a lot of Floatplane exclusives about me this week

779
01:16:51,920 --> 01:16:59,040
In the first video sammy gave me such a wonderful welcome back gift to welcome me back to the office

780
01:16:59,120 --> 01:17:04,800
He will be fired for this injunction. Okay, so first of all sammy. That's not really what injunction means. Is it not? No

781
01:17:05,680 --> 01:17:09,120
Um, it's about vibe and second of all you're not fired allegedly

782
01:17:09,360 --> 01:17:15,920
Um, okay Anyway, this is the video. Uh, people really loved this video on Floatplane

783
01:17:16,320 --> 01:17:20,080
I came back to work and my entire office had been gift wrapped

784
01:17:20,880 --> 01:17:25,600
Um To this day, this is still how I feel about it

785
01:17:28,880 --> 01:17:33,760
Anywho Um, and if pc building is more your style

786
01:17:34,240 --> 01:17:39,920
I went head to head against elijah jordan and pankrats to see who can build a pc the fastest

787
01:17:40,560 --> 01:17:45,440
At Linus media group. Wow. Did any of you wear a horse head? Dude, you filmed that

788
01:17:46,080 --> 01:17:50,400
Ages ago. That video is just coming out. It should forever to we should do

789
01:17:50,480 --> 01:17:55,120
Yeah, we should do a video on who's the fastest to edit a video at Linus media group because I think

790
01:17:55,440 --> 01:17:59,360
I think you would not be in good shape for hours and eight povs. I had to edit

791
01:18:00,320 --> 01:18:04,560
And then I got I because you understand what kind of videos you editing with the povs sick

792
01:18:06,160 --> 01:18:08,640
You disgust me get your mind out of the gutter

Okay, I'm not going to scroll down to the comments because

795
01:18:19,520 --> 01:18:22,400
I feel like it's going to be somewhat debatable who won

796
01:18:22,880 --> 01:18:27,280
So it's probably going to come down to commenters to decide who uh, who did it best

797
01:18:27,840 --> 01:18:35,200
What else is going on on Floatplane? To wrap it up. We've uploaded the full interview with the creator of popos carl rachel

798

01:19:35,840 --> 01:19:40,240
Yes, that one. So I so here this was uh, this was yesterday's video

810
01:19:40,720 --> 01:19:46,000
Uh, it has actually one of my favorite intros that we've done in quite a while

811
01:19:49,200 --> 01:19:51,200
Okay, that that wasn't

812
01:19:52,960 --> 01:19:56,960
What are you watching? What are you? There we go. No, no, we're good. We're good

813
01:19:58,080 --> 01:20:03,120
But this is a gaming chair Um, so you can yeah, so we had

814
01:20:04,800 --> 01:20:10,800
I love david crawling so But uh, anyway solid effort david. I'm not gonna take too much time today

815
01:20:10,880 --> 01:20:15,920
Okay, so I promised I would daily drive that thing for 30 days. I did not approve that

816
01:20:16,560 --> 01:20:20,560
The ergonomics are like not safe in my opinion. Is this a good monitor you think?

817
01:20:21,440 --> 01:20:23,440
Yeah

818
01:20:25,840 --> 01:20:32,240
Yes, you like that monitor. Um, so uh, the the lumbar I agree is bad. So I was trying to adjust it

819
01:20:32,560 --> 01:20:34,560
Yeah, did you know that thing has no limiters?

820
01:20:39,040 --> 01:20:44,400
Sammy You can see my hand here when I visually tried to physically try to stop it

821
01:20:44,800 --> 01:20:49,840
It did not stop. There's no limiter on that chair. Yes, I know I didn't know that

822
01:20:50,800 --> 01:20:52,800
So then it broke

823
01:20:54,320 --> 01:20:59,520
I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I felt so bad. I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry

824
01:21:01,280 --> 01:21:07,600
Uh, yeah, but I record for full plane Uh, so you'll see my reaction on there where you see my my the horror in my face as I try to

825
01:21:08,320 --> 01:21:16,400
Save this monitor. Oh, it's it's mangled. That's deep. I didn't actually realize like you know like the uh, the keyboard like

826
01:21:16,880 --> 01:21:21,920
Play it went through it. Did it occur to you to stop it not with your hand like by pressing the button

827
01:21:21,920 --> 01:21:26,640
So the button wasn't responsive. It wasn't oh the no the one remote doesn't like work

828
01:21:26,720 --> 01:21:33,920
Yeah, I didn't you have to use the other Did you think to watch the video before I watched like I watched mostly through I'm like, I know enough and then

829
01:21:34,240 --> 01:21:38,720
I didn't know I didn't know this you are the problem. I know I'm the problem

830
01:21:40,720 --> 01:21:48,880
Okay, Linus would have just read the comments. I'm sorry Yeah, and through reading the comments, I would have known all the critical information that he didn't have

831
01:21:49,440 --> 01:21:56,800
You I will die on this hill You are better off reading all the comments on a video than like watching the first 30 of it

832
01:21:56,880 --> 01:22:03,680
I watched 50 I You know, I still maintain you're better off reading the comments on a video than watching only half of it

833
01:22:03,760 --> 01:22:08,560
Well, I I am sorry But I had my reaction on on full plane next week

834
01:22:09,280 --> 01:22:13,040
So we had some content. Okay. All right. You know that crazy expensive computer you built for him

835
01:22:13,680 --> 01:22:17,280
I feel like you have to take the value of this monitor out of that computer somehow

836
01:22:17,680 --> 01:22:22,880
They took away my GPU already. Oh really? I I stood up for you. I know you did. I appreciate it

837
01:22:22,880 --> 01:22:26,880
You saw me stand up for you. I said they shouldn't take it away. You know why they took it your department

838
01:22:27,360 --> 01:22:32,480
Oh, get on that beak with you. Get on. Let's get Linus get owned. Yeah, I don't think the two of us could take him

839
01:22:33,600 --> 01:22:41,200
With this broken monitor I just might it's very durable. All right. Thank you sammy. It's very very sorry. I'm very sorry. I feel so bad

840
01:22:41,680 --> 01:22:47,840
I'm sorry. Oh man. That's a really nice monitor. I know. I'm sorry. What's the what's the model? That's not the 4k one

841
01:22:47,840 --> 01:22:49,840
Is it like

842
01:22:50,880 --> 01:22:55,920
Sorry, it wasn't intentional. I'm sorry. I'm sorry. I feel so bad. What monitor is it?

843
01:22:56,160 --> 01:23:02,000
Uh, it's a it's an alien wear or something You know that you're the one holding it who can see the model number, right? That's

844
01:23:04,560 --> 01:23:07,520
Yeah, it's always on there. It's gonna drop it see

845
01:23:08,080 --> 01:23:13,760
I mean, that's fine at this point sammy's one of those guys that we make a video with him and then half the comments are like

846
01:23:13,840 --> 01:23:18,320
Why does this guy even work there? You're getting glass on the ground. I promise he's he's really good at other things

847
01:23:18,640 --> 01:23:23,280
Where's the model? He is. Oh alien wear 2725 q

848
01:23:24,000 --> 01:23:30,240
October 2025 Here, I think that's the 1440. I'm sorry. I'm so sorry

849
01:23:31,040 --> 01:23:33,520
But how much does it cost? It's it's 500 us, right?

850
01:23:34,400 --> 01:23:36,400
Oh

851
01:23:39,440 --> 01:23:45,440
That's the first one I saw this is a 240 hertz 4k. Yeah, this is like top of the line

852
01:23:46,880 --> 01:23:50,560
Cudio led like one of the best monitors on the market. Wow

853
01:23:52,160 --> 01:23:59,120
I'm sorry. I'm so sorry. I honestly had no idea when you showed me. I thought it was just like some random junk monitor

854
01:23:59,120 --> 01:24:05,280
I had no idea. I had no no we got like really nice monitors and we had that like sick alien wear

855
01:24:06,080 --> 01:24:08,960
That like sick alien wear gaming pc on it. It was like

856
01:24:09,520 --> 01:24:12,960
That was like peak gaming other than the lumbar support in the headrest

857
01:24:13,760 --> 01:24:16,000
But are you glad i'm okay? I didn't get hurt

858
01:24:17,200 --> 01:24:20,720
Actually, yes, that would have been worse. Did you get blood on the monitor?

859
01:24:20,960 --> 01:24:24,960
You got my hand on it. See see this this this this hand sign shows war

860
01:24:25,440 --> 01:24:32,240
I went or it shows that you were like banging in the depths of a steamship. Yeah, that's another possibility

861
01:24:32,880 --> 01:24:35,920
That's not the kind of banging I meant but sure. Yeah, what do you mean?

862
01:24:36,400 --> 01:24:41,840
He's never seen titanic. This is the problem with the kids today. I watched like no, I'm sorry. Anyways, I don't think too much time

863
01:24:42,080 --> 01:24:47,600
All right, thanks sammy. Sorry. Hasn't seen tinnit. Sorry tinnit. Hasn't seen pov

864
01:24:48,720 --> 01:24:53,120
Who is this guy? That's that's more expensive than any monitor I've ever owned

865
01:24:55,520 --> 01:25:02,080
It's a random random fun fact that might be worth more than every multi monitor setup you've ever owned

866
01:25:03,200 --> 01:25:11,360
1300 cat Probably and I run three pretty good monitors. Yeah. Yeah. No, I think it is actually I think so that's uh

867
01:25:12,720 --> 01:25:17,040
Wow, I like I I honestly had no idea he showed me in the lab

868
01:25:17,120 --> 01:25:21,280
And I was like, okay I mean losing a monitor like sucks because we just always need monitors

869
01:25:21,280 --> 01:25:25,440
But I'm sure it's just like some random generic monitor. I had no idea it was an alien wear

870
01:25:25,520 --> 01:25:27,520
I had no idea it was high end at all

871
01:25:28,720 --> 01:25:34,960
No, it's the highest of end It's it's like full downward dog high end

872
01:25:36,160 --> 01:25:38,160
It's downward dog the one where your butt's in the air

873
01:25:39,600 --> 01:25:43,920
I sounds like it. Yeah Yes

874
01:25:44,240 --> 01:25:48,320
I was thinking child It doesn't get much more high end than that

875
01:25:51,840 --> 01:25:57,040
Um, all right. Well subscribe to Floatplane so sammy can

876
01:25:58,480 --> 01:26:02,480
Continue to do the things he does. No, he does really good stuff too. I promise

877
01:26:03,280 --> 01:26:09,920
dude, that's All right, let's pick an let's move on let's pick another topic. Hey really cool LTT Labs article this week

878
01:26:10,080 --> 01:26:16,000
Yeah, let's talk about that instead. We know it can be daunting to take your first steps into the world of Linux

879
01:26:16,000 --> 01:26:22,880
We know this because we've been doing it recently But LTT Labs is here for you this article

880
01:26:23,600 --> 01:26:30,880
From nick tested by shawn and steven is we tried popular Linux gaming distros

881
01:26:31,360 --> 01:26:38,240
It's I have not read this one yet because it just went up, but I am very excited to this went up like two days ago

882
01:26:38,320 --> 01:26:42,960
So we can maybe summarize for us. We had some well. Yeah, it's I mean we're kind of benchmarking

883
01:26:43,520 --> 01:26:47,840
A bunch of gaming distros and there's there's tests if you go down

884
01:26:48,320 --> 01:26:55,120
Um, there's there's standard, you know Labs charts with different games and how the different distros did and as you might expect

885
01:26:55,760 --> 01:26:59,760
They're pretty similar Because it kind of goes that way every time

886
01:27:00,480 --> 01:27:03,600
But we still looked at stuff cash. You did pretty good. Let's go cashy

887
01:27:04,240 --> 01:27:08,080
Um, hey, look at that. Look at that. I managed to pick the one

888
01:27:09,280 --> 01:27:17,360
The one that's bad Specifically for doom the dark ages the other games it was uh, if we if we do another Linux iSwitch challenge in the future

889
01:27:17,440 --> 01:27:19,440
You should just have to use whatever

890
01:27:21,040 --> 01:27:24,800
No, that's less interesting. No, I I like I

891
01:27:25,680 --> 01:27:33,360
I think it's really important to have the conversation around what information a normie is likely to be exposed to

892
01:27:34,080 --> 01:27:38,800
That to me is a whether I end up making the right choice for the wrong choice

893
01:27:39,440 --> 01:27:46,560
is is actually a fundamentally important part of the Linux challenge and

894
01:27:47,440 --> 01:27:50,560
I intentionally will not just ask people

895
01:27:51,040 --> 01:27:55,680
I could have we even said this in the first episode. I could literally call Linus torvolds

896
01:27:55,920 --> 01:28:00,240
Yeah, literally have his digits and ask him what distro to use but i'm not doing that

897
01:28:00,800 --> 01:28:06,080
The one the only thing that really surprised me and this would have led you to a distro that I didn't even recommend

898
01:28:06,080 --> 01:28:09,440
But yeah, I had a gut feeling that you were going to go with

899
01:28:10,240 --> 01:28:15,280
What he said he used. Oh, yeah. Yeah in the video you guys did together. That's what I thought you were gonna do

900
01:28:15,360 --> 01:28:23,920
No, no So my part of my method is that I am I'm looking at the entire switching experience

901
01:28:24,480 --> 01:28:32,000
And part of the switching experience is going out there and fact finding. Yeah, and so, you know when the community kind of comes

902
01:28:32,960 --> 01:28:36,640
and goes like He did the fact finding

903
01:28:36,800 --> 01:28:40,880
Wrong because He found the wrong conclusion

904
01:28:41,440 --> 01:28:47,440
What we need to do is we need to look at okay. What are all of these resources and why are they recommending this thing if quote-unquote?

905
01:28:47,520 --> 01:28:53,840
Everyone knows that it's like not good And honestly, we've already seen some positive change

906
01:28:55,200 --> 01:29:00,480
Every time yeah already. Yeah, and so it's one of those things where maybe I just accept my role

907
01:29:01,120 --> 01:29:10,240
as the bearer of bad news And the reality check for people who are so knowledgeable that they don't realize what they don't

908
01:29:10,960 --> 01:29:17,360
What they know, I guess is probably the best way that I could describe it It's like a curse of knowledge thing to a lot of Linux community members

909
01:29:17,840 --> 01:29:22,000
They don't realize how easy it is to make the wrong choice

910
01:29:22,480 --> 01:29:29,840
Because to them it's so obvious They have they know the right people to ask they know the right resources to look at

911
01:29:30,080 --> 01:29:34,400
But to someone who to whom it's not obvious who's coming into it the for the first time

912
01:29:35,120 --> 01:29:39,040
It's very easy to end up on a different path and and

913
01:29:39,600 --> 01:29:43,680
Honestly, I do find this pretty interesting because I I didn't initially use chat

914
01:29:43,680 --> 01:29:46,960
I've used chat gpd to try to figure out things that are going on with my system

915
01:29:47,280 --> 01:29:56,480
But I didn't use it to pick my distro at all But you did and it spat out popos and then I did to see if mine would as well and I don't it was one of the options

916
01:29:56,480 --> 01:30:03,360
I don't remember if it was number one, but it was one of the I don't think it was number one But it was there. I thought number one was cashew for you. I don't remember

917
01:30:03,760 --> 01:30:05,760
I thought it was like open sushi or something

918
01:30:07,760 --> 01:30:16,720
I'm sorry. I don't remember it was a while ago. Yeah, but this time I just did this sitting here right now not logged in so it's not tailored on me and best overall experience popos

919
01:30:17,840 --> 01:30:23,040
So like we can say we can say whatever we want, but a ton of people

920
01:30:23,360 --> 01:30:27,440
We'll use this. Yes. Yeah, and people can be like upset about that

921
01:30:28,160 --> 01:30:31,760
Right. You can be upset about that. You can think they shouldn't use it

922
01:30:32,800 --> 01:30:35,440
But and I said this I said this in episode one

923
01:30:36,080 --> 01:30:39,760
If I am trying to be representative of joe gamer

924
01:30:40,080 --> 01:30:47,040
Who's doing my own research today? And I didn't ask a chat bot. I'd be doing a complete disservice

925
01:30:47,760 --> 01:30:51,360
That would be a completely unrealistic

926
01:30:51,360 --> 01:30:56,160
Assumption that they would not use a chat bot because so many people are using them

927
01:30:56,640 --> 01:31:00,320
And we know this this is just a fact that we don't have to like

928
01:31:00,800 --> 01:31:06,640
But we do have to deal with we've got to deal with the fact that when luke typed in what Linux distro

929
01:31:06,640 --> 01:31:11,040
Should I use and then closed his tab right as I was about to switch back to his screen?

930
01:31:12,000 --> 01:31:14,320
It's out popo has

931
01:31:15,040 --> 01:31:18,640
Yeah, and you know what's funny is um, I know borrow and a couple of things

932
01:31:18,640 --> 01:31:22,400
But I said best overall was popo. I never actually switched off a popo s on my desktop

933
01:31:22,800 --> 01:31:27,200
I don't know if I ever actually acknowledged that on wancho. I don't I don't feel like I realized that

934
01:31:27,360 --> 01:31:33,040
I I kept it because I I did the vast majority of my Linux sing on my other machines

935
01:31:33,520 --> 01:31:36,320
Which were not running popo s. I was running steam os on

936
01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:43,360
On the media pc and then I was running kubuntu on my laptop, which I actually ended up mostly really happy with

937
01:31:43,840 --> 01:31:46,880
They're Worst in issues, you know, we'll talk about those

938
01:31:47,040 --> 01:31:53,120
But uh, yeah, I didn't actually end up using my desktop that much and for the limited amount that I did use it popo

939
01:31:53,120 --> 01:31:56,000
s not only was usable, but it actually got better

940
01:31:56,560 --> 01:31:58,560
Over the entire course of the challenge

941
01:32:03,360 --> 01:32:08,560
Someone in chat said I asked the llm search and ubuntu admit was number one. I was like, oh, that's an interesting idea

942
01:32:08,640 --> 01:32:13,680
I should just ask search which I'd never do. Yeah, but I should just do that and

943
01:32:14,640 --> 01:32:19,040
It's the exact same output um

944
01:32:19,040 --> 01:32:22,800
No bar project. I am specifying. I'm switching the Linux from Windows

945
01:32:23,440 --> 01:32:29,520
And that's where a lot so so a big part of why it recommended popo s for me was that I laid out what my requirements were

946
01:32:29,680 --> 01:32:34,000
Yeah, I want and and a huge part of the of the residual

947
01:32:34,640 --> 01:32:40,400
Sort of branding for popo s is that it's really good for people with NVIDIA GPU's

948
01:32:40,880 --> 01:32:46,320
Who want a turnkey gaming experience and are coming from Windows? That's like that's the identity

949
01:32:47,120 --> 01:32:49,920
Of popo s and also that it's not just for gaming

950
01:32:50,560 --> 01:32:56,960
like that was That's that's the kind of like branding in a nutshell for popo s. I think I think

951
01:32:58,560 --> 01:33:02,720
First of all, I think a lot of people have labeled me as like the Linux guy here, which I think is just not

952
01:33:03,200 --> 01:33:08,800
It's not true, but you're definitely You definitely had more familiarity going into it than either. Oh, no

953
01:33:08,800 --> 01:33:15,360
I'm just trying to qualify my next statement as like I probably don't know as much about this as some of you seem to think that I do

954
01:33:15,840 --> 01:33:18,720
um But in my experience the whole

955
01:33:19,280 --> 01:33:23,120
better NVIDIA driver native stuff is like

956
01:33:25,520 --> 01:33:29,280
Yeah, no, I know that hasn't been a thing for me in like a long time

957
01:33:29,360 --> 01:33:33,360
I think that's uh, I think that's an old and it's it's everywhere

958
01:33:33,920 --> 01:33:38,240
So like it was talked about a lot in the past, but I think we're kind of past that problem

959
01:33:38,720 --> 01:33:44,560
um At least in in like everything I've used like mint is much more casual

960
01:33:45,120 --> 01:33:50,720
And has no problem with NVIDIA drivers mint for me can switch between Intel and and NVIDIA

961
01:33:51,280 --> 01:33:57,360
Graphics for like performance or battery saving setups and stuff and just has no problem with it like I don't think that's a

962
01:33:58,080 --> 01:34:04,880
modern problem Just does a note for anyone watching. I wouldn't get too scared about the NVIDIA on the next thing

963
01:34:04,960 --> 01:34:09,520
It's it's really not as big of a deal as it was before tim 000x3 says, okay

964
01:34:09,520 --> 01:34:13,360
Here's my counterpoint Linus. Joe gamer is actually going to also watch LTT

965
01:34:13,840 --> 01:34:17,920
So they're going to say Linus has a lot of problems with popo s and probably not use popo s now

966
01:34:18,160 --> 01:34:21,120
Are you taking that into account? Well, I can't at the time

967
01:34:21,280 --> 01:34:26,400
There's a bit of a like temporal issue with your argument because at the time that I selected popo s

968
01:34:26,400 --> 01:34:30,400
I have not yet made a video finding out that popo s was problematic for me now

969
01:34:31,040 --> 01:34:36,960
so it's Yeah, and also the chat gpt user base versus Linus tech tips viewers

970
01:34:38,400 --> 01:34:45,280
So the chat gpt user base is this big And the Linus tech tips user base our viewer base is this big. Yeah, like we

971
01:34:46,960 --> 01:34:50,400
I've talked about this a fair bit, but I think our regular viewers

972
01:34:51,040 --> 01:34:53,520
Especially our WAN Show viewers

973
01:34:54,480 --> 01:35:01,520
Overestimate the importance of us and I'm flattered. You know, I I appreciate that

974
01:35:02,080 --> 01:35:07,520
If if people that I game with figure out what I do the most common question I get is what pre-build should I buy?

975
01:35:08,640 --> 01:35:13,280
Because I'm not into this stuff Yeah

976
01:35:13,280 --> 01:35:19,040
Yep, it was astonishing to me. I think much less so you but it was astonishing to me to figure out how

977
01:35:20,000 --> 01:35:24,640
Massive the pre-built market was I thought some of these companies were just kind of small

978
01:35:24,800 --> 01:35:27,840
I've existed forever some people will build computers or whatever

979
01:35:28,560 --> 01:35:35,120
No, they're big. They're very big. Yeah, they're huge. I didn't realize how much like sway

980
01:35:35,600 --> 01:35:39,280
System integrators had as well because they're so massive. Yep

981
01:35:39,440 --> 01:35:46,640
I had really no clue and because of how important they are not even necessarily computers because I'm dumb even from a sales

982
01:35:47,040 --> 01:35:54,640
Perspective but from a marketing perspective. Yeah, like when people are shopping for us for a gaming system

983
01:35:55,440 --> 01:36:04,240
Having your brand In everyone's configurator is in some ways like way more powerful than any reviewer that you could ever see

984
01:36:04,720 --> 01:36:08,800
Product to because that's where people with a very high purchase intent

985
01:36:09,200 --> 01:36:12,640
Are going to be seeing your brand and are going to be exposed to your product

986
01:36:12,640 --> 01:36:18,080
And it's it's funny because I um, I in a lot of for a lot of my career

987
01:36:18,480 --> 01:36:23,920
I sort of took for granted my experience as a product manager and working in sales and marketing

988
01:36:24,400 --> 01:36:31,360
As just like well. Yeah, but like everyone knows that the enthusiast side of things is just this like, you know, tiny little cute

989
01:36:31,600 --> 01:36:37,920
Niche and and and understands that there's actually a much larger machine here. Yeah, that doesn't really care about us

990
01:36:38,320 --> 01:36:45,680
yeah, but then The longer I've gone the more I've been like no actually that perspective was really important

991
01:36:46,160 --> 01:36:49,680
in trying to in trying to frame products in a way that

992
01:36:50,480 --> 01:36:57,200
Because I'm one of you because I am an enthusiast. I I can see the things that are important to us

993
01:36:57,840 --> 01:37:01,520
but also share the perspective that

994
01:37:03,280 --> 01:37:08,880
Guides product decisions that we don't like. Yeah, and that is that

995
01:37:09,840 --> 01:37:14,320
99 out of the 100 people that are purchasing it are not us

996
01:37:14,960 --> 01:37:20,320
And don't care like okay here. Here's something that I know is a bugbear for you

997
01:37:21,200 --> 01:37:24,560
boring modern graphics card packaging. Yeah

998
01:37:25,600 --> 01:37:34,800
But look at it from NVIDIA's perspective. Okay GPU box. Here we go. Dude. They were so cool. Oh my god packaging

999
01:37:34,880 --> 01:37:39,920
It's so boring. Okay, that boring box. So this is what they used to look like

1000
01:37:40,720 --> 01:37:45,600
That's so sick. This is what they used to look like so much better, dude. Here's what they look like

1001
01:37:46,240 --> 01:37:53,840
Here's what they look like now So NVIDIA mandates that you have to have you know this and on the side

1002
01:37:54,320 --> 01:37:59,840
Let me see if I can find a shot from the side Uh, you've got to have so you've got to have certain

1003
01:37:59,920 --> 01:38:04,240
Yeah, I know I know relax over clocks. Okay, here you go

1004
01:38:04,320 --> 01:38:07,600
So you've got to have this on the side so that no matter how it's faced on the shelf

1005
01:38:08,320 --> 01:38:15,360
Everyone can see the g-force and the model number and you know whatever and you know what in fairness to NVIDIA

1006
01:38:15,520 --> 01:38:21,440
I'm not that against that I think that's okay. This was pretty hard to read. Yes, you know about this, right?

1007
01:38:21,440 --> 01:38:25,520
This is like, uh, it's like a table book. Did you did you order it? No

1008
01:38:26,480 --> 01:38:32,720
Um, oh remember this thing. Yeah, I know I didn't I should yeah, did that ever

1009
01:38:33,760 --> 01:38:37,280
Uh, noteworthy find from the did that ever like come to life?

1010
01:38:37,840 --> 01:38:44,160
publisher's website for stock alerts overclocked an archive of graphics card box art can be

1011
01:38:45,840 --> 01:38:51,280
Let's go All right. Uh, this is your birthday present sick. Thank you. All right

1012
01:38:52,000 --> 01:38:58,400
um Yeah, I I think having some amount of standard labeling so that you can tell what

1013
01:38:58,960 --> 01:39:05,520
Thing you're buying is fine. But then beyond that I would like it if it was if NVIDIA would screw off

1014
01:39:06,800 --> 01:39:13,520
Um, and just let people do fun stuff outside of like, you know, have your we we talked about it with thumbnails where there's like the

1015
01:39:13,920 --> 01:39:22,240
The safety zones or whatever. Mm-hmm where like, okay This isn't this isn't going to conflict with youtube putting a timestamp or or a hover over or something like that

1016
01:39:22,560 --> 01:39:29,920
Have those areas just be where NVIDIA has their mandatory branding cool. No problem. And then beyond that have some fun with it

1017
01:39:30,000 --> 01:39:32,880
It's a graphics card. It's supposed to do fun things

1018
01:39:34,480 --> 01:39:40,640
Somehow we ended up here. We were talking about this article on the Labs website. Check it out at lttlabs.com

1019
01:39:41,200 --> 01:39:45,440
Um, it's just up here in the in the feed right here before you ask. Yes

1020
01:39:45,600 --> 01:39:51,520
We do have an rss feed So that you can make sure that you see all these all these really all these really cool

1021
01:39:51,600 --> 01:39:56,960
Articles that are actually coming out on a very regular basis these days. Yeah, go check it out. Yeah

1022
01:39:58,400 --> 01:40:04,720
All right, let's pick another topic Oh, this is cool. Uh here do you want to bring up the visuals for?

1023
01:40:05,680 --> 01:40:12,960
Wave overhangs is a new open source slicer forked from orca slicer that can print

1024
01:40:13,680 --> 01:40:20,400
And this is wild Fully horizontal 90 degree overhangs without support material

1025
01:40:22,800 --> 01:40:25,360
That's what I looked like that's confusing

1026
01:40:26,480 --> 01:40:32,160
I don't I'm not a big 3d printer omega brain, but this that's confusing. Okay. You've got the visuals up now

1027
01:40:32,240 --> 01:40:37,760
I think so. Okay. So here. Let's throw out. Okay. This is cool. Yeah. Can you like zoom zoom zoom? Yeah, there we go

1028
01:40:38,080 --> 01:40:43,680
So instead of laying plastic into thin air and then just hoping for the best

1029
01:40:44,000 --> 01:40:47,360
Okay, it generates concentric rings of material

1030
01:40:47,840 --> 01:40:53,040
That each grab onto the cooled ring that was laid down before them in the same layer

1031
01:40:53,520 --> 01:40:57,200
Propagating outward from the supporting from the supported edge like a wave

1032
01:40:57,760 --> 01:41:00,800
So we're looking at the one on the right over there

1033
01:41:01,120 --> 01:41:05,440
So you can see that it it kind of it kind of goes

1034
01:41:06,800 --> 01:41:11,120
A little farther a little farther each time

1035
01:41:11,840 --> 01:41:16,560
In order to in order for that overhang to have something to grab on to. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah

1036
01:41:16,800 --> 01:41:24,560
This concept isn't brand new arc overhangs first appeared back in 2022 as a proof of concept that using overlapping circular

1037
01:41:24,800 --> 01:41:33,040
toolpaths could achieve the same basic idea The difference is arc overhangs were never integrated into a real slicer and required manually extracting

1038
01:41:33,360 --> 01:41:37,120
Coordinates running a separate script and then pasting the gcode back into your sliced model

1039
01:41:37,120 --> 01:41:42,800
Wave paths do look a lot more simple Not exactly that kind of thing that most people are going to want to bother with

1040
01:41:43,440 --> 01:41:48,560
Wave overhangs then is the first time the technique has been built directly into a usable slicer with a gooey toggle

1041
01:41:48,880 --> 01:41:53,600
With tunable settings and two different algorithms to choose from it is still very experimental

1042
01:41:53,920 --> 01:42:00,400
There are around 20 tunable parameters and no presets yet and warping on larger spans is a no limitation

1043
01:42:00,880 --> 01:42:08,720
But the developers are asking users to be part of its development and upload test prints to a community gallery at wave overhangs.com

1044
01:42:08,960 --> 01:42:14,240
To help figure out what settings work best across different printers and materials

1045
01:42:15,120 --> 01:42:22,240
So be be part of the change that you want to see in the world. Let's have a look at some stuff from the gallery like

1046
01:42:22,720 --> 01:42:25,760
Oh Oh, how cool is that?

1047
01:42:26,240 --> 01:42:31,200
Wow, right That's pretty sweet

1048
01:42:32,800 --> 01:42:42,320
Oh, I like it Less supports should be less wasted plastic more warping observed. It's always hold on a second. No, wait a second. Oh wait

1049
01:42:42,320 --> 01:42:47,200
What am I looking at here? This looks like a uh

1050
01:42:47,840 --> 01:42:52,640
No, forget this one Hold on. Hold on. Let's find what yeah, here we go. Here we go. Here we go

1051
01:42:53,840 --> 01:42:57,200
Okay, that isn't that isn't that's an overhang and a half

1052
01:42:58,240 --> 01:43:04,560
That's wild Being able to print that like yeah, not perfect, but like

1053
01:43:05,440 --> 01:43:08,400
That's crazy. There's the print bed right there

1054
01:43:15,280 --> 01:43:22,240
Man Dang 3d printing you crazy one. Look at this

1055
01:43:23,200 --> 01:43:28,560
Best print so far on this very challenging test print pattern zigzag

1056
01:43:29,440 --> 01:43:33,200
Wow, there's definitely some warping. Oh, yeah

1057
01:43:34,560 --> 01:43:39,760
But like this is how this is how these things get to the point where it's like click and forget

1058
01:43:40,320 --> 01:43:46,400
Am I wrong that this would even just be a good idea to do even if you did have some supports to help stop the warping?

1059
01:43:46,400 --> 01:43:49,120
Because wouldn't it be stronger once you remove the supports as well?

1060
01:43:49,760 --> 01:43:54,160
Or am I just totally tripping possibly because what I'm seeing in the in the demo imagery

1061
01:43:55,040 --> 01:43:58,080
The the thing that was most interesting to me. I'm going to jump over to mine. Look at that

1062
01:43:58,560 --> 01:44:04,720
Oh, wait, we can look at that. Look at that. Look. Look at this. Look, man. Look at this. It is cool. No supports. Luke

1063
01:44:04,880 --> 01:44:10,160
That's pretty wild. That's crazy. This is the base guys for context. This is what was stuck to the base of the print bed

1064
01:44:10,160 --> 01:44:14,880
Yeah, so this gives us a look at what it looks like from the bottom like oh

1065
01:44:16,000 --> 01:44:20,880
Man, that's what I'm seeing here is like in these example images the detached lines here

1066
01:44:21,280 --> 01:44:24,080
Just removing those and making it so that your

1067
01:44:24,800 --> 01:44:31,120
your like Your your path is all the way from back here. So you have all the strength from back here on these like

1068
01:44:32,560 --> 01:44:37,120
These parts here which seem like they might be more breakable. I don't know. I'm not 3d printer brain guy

1069
01:44:37,280 --> 01:44:44,400
But it seems like potentially using wave paths in combination with supports if you can't afford to have

1070
01:44:44,800 --> 01:44:49,280
any deformation Could be a cool option for strength. I don't know

1071
01:44:50,880 --> 01:44:55,440
James unknown says I've been 3d printing for years now my own business now and this is huge

1072
01:44:55,840 --> 01:45:00,800
Not just saving material, but also what Luke is saying. I can see that being way stronger. Cool. Okay

1073
01:45:01,440 --> 01:45:06,320
Sweet very I mean that that seems awesome to me because you might even end up with a combination of both

1074
01:45:06,640 --> 01:45:12,160
You might not need as much support If it's not going to be as much of a as big of a problem

1075
01:45:12,400 --> 01:45:15,280
So you can save some material and it can be stronger like what a win

1076
01:45:15,840 --> 01:45:19,920
All right. I got a funny one Qualcomm's stock surges

1077
01:45:20,480 --> 01:45:25,600
In response to a report that it could make chips for an open ai smartphone

1078
01:45:26,640 --> 01:45:30,880
And then it lost much of those gains on subsequent trading days

1079
01:45:31,840 --> 01:45:35,440
According to a report from well-known tech analyst, uh, Ming-Chi Kuo

1080
01:45:35,840 --> 01:45:41,760
Open ai is working on its own smartphone in an effort to compete with the iphone with mass production targeted for 2028

1081
01:45:42,240 --> 01:45:45,680
Kuo. Yeah, we'll get to it. We'll get to it. This is sec. This is sec. Hold on. Hold on. Relax. Relax

1082
01:45:46,000 --> 01:45:53,040
Kuo says that open ai has partnered with chip makers qualcomm and media tech to develop the smartphone's processors with luxe share handling system

1083
01:45:53,120 --> 01:46:00,240
Codesign and manufacturing the phone will reportedly have no apps and be a completely agentic workflow. Whatever that means

1084
01:46:00,880 --> 01:46:04,880
This is another in a handful of hardware products. Hold on. Hold on. Contain yourself

1085
01:46:05,280 --> 01:46:10,480
This is another in a handful of hardware products that open ai has announced but not yet released

1086
01:46:10,800 --> 01:46:16,000
Including earbuds and that home pod style smart speaker that johnny i've is reportedly working on

1087
01:46:16,720 --> 01:46:18,720
Okay, go

1088
01:46:24,000 --> 01:46:28,000
First of all just flat line used no brain power

1089
01:46:28,800 --> 01:46:33,920
Had a thought Sounds terrible. I would never want to buy this

1090
01:46:34,800 --> 01:46:42,080
Oh my god Okay, diving a little bit more into things. It uses no apps. Dang that sucks a lot

1091
01:46:43,920 --> 01:46:48,880
So much of what i'm gonna need to do is using apps on my phone

1092
01:46:49,440 --> 01:46:55,440
Uh, hopefully i'm not just like, you know that old guy that gets clipped in the future when people are like, well, obviously

1093
01:46:55,520 --> 01:46:59,360
We didn't need whatever but at least right now. This seems genuinely bad

1094
01:46:59,760 --> 01:47:05,360
Um, also, isn't it called apps when you add like functions to agentic?

1095
01:47:06,560 --> 01:47:12,960
systems Like when when what does that even mean when a jet this is to be short for application

1096
01:47:13,040 --> 01:47:19,920
This is kind of what i mean now it's developed. It's kind of its own meaning I don't know what to tell you when they added wolfram alpha as a thing to

1097
01:47:20,960 --> 01:47:24,080
Open ai's agentic mode. Yeah, was that was it not an app?

1098
01:47:25,200 --> 01:47:28,720
It could be called skills to skills and tools sure whatever

1099
01:47:29,520 --> 01:47:35,600
Um Sounds sounds good. Uh other than the product the product sounds terrible

1100
01:47:35,840 --> 01:47:42,240
Um Remember that time that facebook wanted to make a phone? Yeah, remember how nobody

1101
01:47:43,040 --> 01:47:46,160
Wants or needs a phone that is not

1102
01:47:46,960 --> 01:47:52,480
at least At least a walled garden ecosystem that is that is

1103
01:47:53,040 --> 01:47:57,360
Accepting of you know, pretty much everything else running on it as a platform

1104
01:47:58,160 --> 01:48:01,600
Can you think of? any reason

1105
01:48:01,600 --> 01:48:08,400
to want this Over a phone from someone with decades of experience building hardware like apple

1106
01:48:09,680 --> 01:48:13,200
The western world is still going to want iPhones and the rest of the world

1107
01:48:14,000 --> 01:48:20,800
Is still going to want Open systems that they can extend and modify and and keep going long term

1108
01:48:21,600 --> 01:48:30,800
And this is neither And I don't think it's going to breach the market basically anywhere. Maybe it'll be popular for sales in san francisco

1109
01:48:31,760 --> 01:48:39,520
Uh and that's probably about it So it's the it's the smartphone for tech bros and tech bros only

1110
01:48:40,640 --> 01:48:43,760
Whoa Okay, do you want to hear something kind of wild?

1111
01:48:44,000 --> 01:48:49,200
There's more viewers on there's more viewers on the WAN Show channel than there are on the Linus tech tips channel

1112
01:48:49,520 --> 01:48:53,840
I think it's going to be time to cut it off pretty soon guys if you're watching on Linus tech tips right now

1113
01:48:53,840 --> 01:48:58,160
You got to go switch over to the WAN Show channel. We got to figure out that collaborative thing

1114
01:48:58,400 --> 01:49:01,200
Yeah, I think that's probably the way to go like moving forward

1115
01:49:01,680 --> 01:49:07,440
Yeah, like a collab stream. Yeah, we stream on the WAN Show and then we just collab with LTT collab for a while

1116
01:49:07,520 --> 01:49:10,480
I don't think we should do it forever because I don't want to be sending

1117
01:49:11,520 --> 01:49:17,120
Notifications on both forever. I think we should move to wan shows sooner rather than I don't think it will if you're subscribed to both

1118
01:49:17,600 --> 01:49:24,720
I think youtube is smart About that. I also I also don't want to let people get complacent about it

1119
01:49:24,960 --> 01:49:29,040
They should subscribe to the WAN Show in order to continue to follow the WAN Show

1120
01:49:29,760 --> 01:49:34,160
So get get get on for streams get on over there. Really sammy?

1121
01:49:35,280 --> 01:49:40,640
um All right, moving on to our next topic

1122
01:49:41,680 --> 01:49:49,920
I'm gonna pick one Maryland video has become the first american state to ban surveillance pricing in grocery stores

1123
01:49:51,040 --> 01:49:53,760
Critics do say that the law has too many loopholes, but

1124
01:49:54,400 --> 01:49:58,960
Look, let's Let's start with let's start with the good news side of it

1125
01:49:59,520 --> 01:50:07,520
The law was signed by governor west moor on tuesday and bans grocers and third party delivery services from using personal data

1126
01:50:07,840 --> 01:50:11,360
To set higher prices if you're not familiar

1127
01:50:11,760 --> 01:50:15,920
Surveillance pricing is a practice that uses some

1128
01:50:16,640 --> 01:50:22,160
characteristic of yourself like your zip code for instance or your ethnicity or

1129
01:50:22,880 --> 01:50:32,400
um Just any personal personally identifiable personal information about you and uses it to adjust the pricing upward

1130
01:50:34,240 --> 01:50:39,760
Because of what you can presumably afford there's some camera thing and it's like all white people like broccoli

1131
01:50:39,760 --> 01:50:46,560
Let's increase the price of broccoli pretty much. It doesn't have to be a racial thing, but it could be let's face it

1132
01:50:46,960 --> 01:50:51,760
It could be whether we want it to go to a race place or not it often ends

1133
01:50:51,760 --> 01:50:56,560
They'll put it behind some machine learning thing and call it a black box and say they have no control over what kind of box

1134
01:51:03,760 --> 01:51:05,760
I think you're more intimately familiar than me

1135
01:51:09,200 --> 01:51:11,200
No

1136
01:51:14,400 --> 01:51:19,040
Listen I

1137
01:51:21,920 --> 01:51:26,000
Colorado California

1138
01:51:26,000 --> 01:51:29,840
Massachusetts illinois and new jersey are all considering similar bills

1139
01:51:30,480 --> 01:51:35,440
But while this is a win consumer advocates are saying that maryland's law is full of loopholes

1140
01:51:35,840 --> 01:51:39,600
The biggest one is that it bans raising prices based on personal data

1141
01:51:39,920 --> 01:51:45,440
But doesn't stop companies from raising prices for everyone then offering personalized discounts

1142
01:51:45,840 --> 01:51:52,880
That ultimately arrive at the exact same outcome There are also exemptions for loyalty programs and promotional offers

1143
01:51:52,960 --> 01:51:56,400
Which are some of the main vehicles that companies already use to do this

1144
01:51:57,200 --> 01:52:03,200
And there's no private right of action meaning that regular consumers can't actually sue if they get caught up in surveillance pricing

1145
01:52:03,520 --> 01:52:08,080
Only the state attorney general can enforce it which critics say guts any real deterrent so

1146
01:52:09,120 --> 01:52:12,480
It's a little bit of progress in that we're finally talking about the issue

1147
01:52:12,800 --> 01:52:18,960
We're acknowledging the issue But it's very clear that there is a lot more that needs to be done

1148
01:52:19,040 --> 01:52:22,560
And I mean personally I would just love to see this happen across the board

1149
01:52:22,960 --> 01:52:26,960
You know, why are airline why are airline operators allowed to do this?

1150
01:52:27,760 --> 01:52:32,240
Actually crazy. They're like the entire vacation industry seems to operate based on this

1151
01:52:33,600 --> 01:52:39,280
However, however, I I would caution that we don't want to go too far

1152
01:52:40,160 --> 01:52:43,760
Regional pricing on services like steam, for example, I

1153
01:52:45,040 --> 01:52:49,520
Fundamentally support so this shouldn't be able to be done within a country. Is that fair enough?

1154
01:52:49,520 --> 01:52:53,680
I think that's a fair line to draw. Let's use the those arbitrary lines on the map

1155
01:52:54,080 --> 01:52:58,640
And let's let's make those the boundaries. Would you go as far as like

1156
01:53:01,520 --> 01:53:07,040
A province Or a city would I allow

1157
01:53:07,920 --> 01:53:13,280
How Different pricing because I'm pretty sure somebody had Alberta plates on

1158
01:53:13,920 --> 01:53:18,240
Oh, right because it has to be dynamic. No, it has to be dynamic. Yeah. No, I don't I

1159
01:53:18,800 --> 01:53:23,600
Because my mind is like, I mean, there is different pricing for like say milk in Alberta versus here

1160
01:53:23,600 --> 01:53:29,360
Yeah, but it shouldn't be because of where you're from or because of who you are. It shouldn't be. Yeah. Yeah. No, that's f***ed up

1161
01:53:29,520 --> 01:53:35,200
Especially because it incentivizes these organizations to then collect the data on everybody. Yeah

1162
01:53:35,600 --> 01:53:39,280
And then whether or not they actually use it. I mean a lot of the tech could use it anyway

1163
01:53:39,280 --> 01:53:45,920
You can set your pricing there might be market factors It might be more expensive to get trucks to wherever you are. Maybe you're way north in Canada or something

1164
01:53:45,920 --> 01:53:51,360
It's just a fact Um, but you can't you can't change it based on who's in the store

1165
01:53:52,240 --> 01:53:54,880
Yeah, obviously that seems like it should just happen

1166
01:53:57,280 --> 01:54:02,720
Um fools and horses says Linus, do you collect any trends or data from LTT Store?

1167
01:54:03,280 --> 01:54:08,000
Where does the line get drawn? You know what? This was actually something that you don't use that to

1168
01:54:10,000 --> 01:54:15,440
Target pricing for specific users though. No, we don't but Colton that actually messaged us about

1169
01:54:16,160 --> 01:54:23,360
um Like what we do and don't collect on LTT Store and like where we think the right line would be

1170
01:54:23,440 --> 01:54:28,880
I don't know if we ever actually Talked about that on wandshow. I can't actually I can't find the email

1171
01:54:29,360 --> 01:54:34,000
From him right now, but do you remember the one that i'm talking about they're trying to figure out like what would be

1172
01:54:34,640 --> 01:54:38,160
what would be You know an LMG friendly

1173
01:54:38,720 --> 01:54:41,600
level of like cookies and data collection

1174
01:54:42,160 --> 01:54:47,920
To determine whether some of the marketing efforts that his team is doing are actually working because right now

1175
01:54:48,720 --> 01:54:56,480
We do some limited data collection, but there are pieces of it that would be very helpful to them that right now they don't

1176
01:54:57,280 --> 01:55:00,560
They don't have enough to get it to get a clear picture for instance like

1177
01:55:01,200 --> 01:55:05,200
um, one of the things they were looking at was like conversion of

1178
01:55:05,840 --> 01:55:08,960
um of people on Floatplane

1179
01:55:09,360 --> 01:55:14,640
For subscriptions and stuff like that Uh, what what is what's the right amount?

1180
01:55:16,560 --> 01:55:22,160
The Floatplane one was a pretty big line because we don't have a banner for stuff like that because we don't do like any of it

1181
01:55:22,400 --> 01:55:25,600
So we were like, uh, we'd have to do oh like a gdpr

1182
01:55:26,000 --> 01:55:28,720
Like i'm like a cookie banner and like all that kind of stuff

1183
01:55:30,480 --> 01:55:38,480
um So i we just didn't do it at zeem says i avoid ads at a very high cost. Yeah, we're not we're not talking about ads

1184
01:55:39,040 --> 01:55:41,440
Though we're talking about like forms of tracking. Yeah

1185
01:55:42,400 --> 01:55:48,720
Because like you it's it's there are also other ways to do it though and that that was the counter pitch from Floatplane

1186
01:55:49,360 --> 01:55:53,840
So how do we do it? You can have like

1187
01:55:53,920 --> 01:55:55,920
You can have it so that it's a link

1188
01:55:57,040 --> 01:55:59,600
And like the where did the url come from?

1189
01:56:00,080 --> 01:56:06,240
Yeah, so we can't we can't track it on like an individual user basis, but we can see like this many people clicked this link

1190
01:56:07,040 --> 01:56:12,080
and This many people that clicked on that link did follow through and purchase a description

1191
01:56:12,720 --> 01:56:19,520
Now someone could screw that up Because the for us because they could click on the link and then like navigate somewhere else manually

1192
01:56:19,760 --> 01:56:23,760
And that manual navigation might get rid of the the uh the url

1193
01:56:24,880 --> 01:56:29,520
Like there's there's yeah, there are other ways to do it. They're not perfect, but neither is

1194
01:56:30,160 --> 01:56:32,800
aggressive cookies that you're also feeding to

1195
01:56:34,080 --> 01:56:38,320
Facebook or whoever else because you're running it through their systems. It's another thing to keep in mind

1196
01:56:38,960 --> 01:56:40,960
Yeah

1197
01:56:44,800 --> 01:56:50,960
All right, well, let's leave it alone for now and then we'll go from there, I guess

1198
01:56:52,960 --> 01:56:58,880
I don't know man. I I understand why his team wants to do this stuff, but I also understand the hesitation

1199
01:56:59,120 --> 01:57:02,640
Yeah, but like I said, there are other options. It's it's not like we're we're saying

1200
01:57:02,800 --> 01:57:06,080
I mean we might we might have said no at the time because we're such a small team

1201
01:57:06,080 --> 01:57:10,080
We can't just do everything all the time, but um

1202
01:57:10,080 --> 01:57:15,840
There's ways that you can track how well that campaign is working without being able to tie it down to it specific user

1203
01:57:16,960 --> 01:57:20,320
Okay, like it is possible. You can you can have flags in the url

1204
01:57:20,960 --> 01:57:23,760
that follow the process and if if

1205
01:57:24,480 --> 01:57:30,880
One of those like url flagged people that goes through does a purchase. Yeah, it's just holding tallies

1206
01:57:31,840 --> 01:57:38,640
Okay, so you like the advertising platform side should know how many people you served that ad to

1207
01:57:39,680 --> 01:57:44,560
Our side should know how many people came to the site with that in the url

1208
01:57:44,720 --> 01:57:48,160
And then our side should know how many people checked out with that in the url

1209
01:57:48,640 --> 01:57:53,520
And then you have your three data points I'm like ideally that's enough and then we're not feeding it through

1210
01:57:54,240 --> 01:58:01,440
Metta or whoever else Amica asks are you just putting yourself at a commercial disadvantage by trying to be ethical about this? Yes

1211
01:58:02,800 --> 01:58:06,240
But like we often do

1212
01:58:06,320 --> 01:58:09,760
and That's something we've decided to do

1213
01:58:10,640 --> 01:58:14,800
And I think I think that should almost potentially uh reflect

1214
01:58:18,560 --> 01:58:20,560
I'm just gonna skip

1215
01:58:21,760 --> 01:58:25,280
All right in some other cool news you guys can come up with your own morality

1216
01:58:26,000 --> 01:58:32,080
The first tesla semi truck from their gigafactory nevada high volume production line has

1217
01:58:32,880 --> 01:58:36,880
officially rolled off the line the semi is

1218
01:58:36,880 --> 01:58:42,640
A little late. It was first unveiled in 2017 with an original promised production date of 2019

1219
01:58:44,000 --> 01:58:53,280
Okay, a little late But it's here. It is worth noting. This is not the first semi to be produced a handful were delivered to pepsico in late 2022

1220
01:58:53,520 --> 01:58:56,560
But those were essentially like hand built on a pilot line

1221
01:58:57,520 --> 01:59:02,640
This time we're talking mass produced units with an expected annual production capacity of 50

1222
01:59:03,200 --> 01:59:07,760
Thousand trucks although it is worth noting that that will have to ramp up over the next few years

1223
01:59:08,000 --> 01:59:12,240
Doesn't mean anything and it doesn't mean anything because tesla lies constantly

1224
01:59:12,560 --> 01:59:17,440
But but but this is as far as we can tell truthfully the mass production line

1225
01:59:17,760 --> 01:59:24,960
These trucks have a range of 325 miles or 500 miles depending on whether they are the standard or long range model

1226
01:59:25,120 --> 01:59:30,880
And that is apparently fully loaded though. It's not clear in our notes. What exactly

1227
01:59:31,520 --> 01:59:40,640
Fully loaded Means there's definitely degrees of loaded for semi trucks. They support teslas mega charger, which is 1.2

1228
01:59:41,760 --> 01:59:45,200
megawatt charger

1229
01:59:45,200 --> 01:59:47,600
Could they not have done 1.21?

1230
01:59:48,880 --> 01:59:52,880
They were so close 1.21 megawatts

1231
01:59:53,040 --> 02:00:00,160
Yeah, that would be pretty sick And does it round up that'll restore 60 percent of the trucks range in 30 minutes

1232
02:00:00,640 --> 02:00:07,040
Cost on the long range model and this is what makes this good news WAN Show cost on the long range model is expected to be

1233
02:00:08,000 --> 02:00:10,000
290 000 us dollars

1234
02:00:11,200 --> 02:00:15,120
That do we have a reference point for other semi trucks? Oh, they're really expensive

1235
02:00:15,280 --> 02:00:25,840
I know they're so expensive That was my grandpa's job and like the maintenance and the dealer network and just the like old boys club of everything the financing crazy loans

1236
02:00:27,040 --> 02:00:31,040
290 000 us dollars for something that

1237
02:00:31,760 --> 02:00:37,360
Is going to have sure all the disadvantages of an electric vehicle, right?

1238
02:00:37,440 --> 02:00:41,440
Like these batteries will eventually wear out and you have to charge and blah blah blah blah

1239
02:00:42,160 --> 02:00:45,040
But that will also have the advantages

1240
02:00:45,680 --> 02:00:50,240
Of an electric vehicle and that you're using simple electric motors

1241
02:00:51,440 --> 02:00:57,920
That's okay. Sorry not simple, but relatively low maintenance electric motors. Dude, this thing looks freaking

1242
02:00:58,880 --> 02:01:09,360
awesome I am uh, I am like kind of stoked on it to be clear. I don't think that the teslas semi is going to be taking over long haul trucking anytime

1243
02:01:11,520 --> 02:01:17,200
In the foreseeable future. There is a ton of trucking that isn't long haul trucking. Yes, and that's okay

1244
02:01:17,520 --> 02:01:21,440
And and what's kind of cool about this is for semis

1245
02:01:21,920 --> 02:01:25,040
I can actually see the range being less of an issue

1246
02:01:25,200 --> 02:01:30,400
Especially for companies that are somewhat integrated where they can build in charging infrastructure

1247
02:01:30,880 --> 02:01:35,120
At the various docks that they're going to be visiting because it said 60 in half an hour, right?

1248
02:01:35,680 --> 02:01:42,560
If you're doing an unload or load Well, that wouldn't get a lot of you wouldn't have a mega charger at like your warehouse

1249
02:01:43,760 --> 02:01:53,120
But if every time you docked You would be able because I mean you'd like your transformer for your for your warehouse building like simply will not have that level of

1250
02:01:53,680 --> 02:01:58,240
Unless you went out of your way like you're not going to have a mega charger. Sorry. Sorry specifically mega charger

1251
02:01:58,240 --> 02:02:01,600
Yeah, so I guess I won't do that rate, but still you could plug into something

1252
02:02:01,760 --> 02:02:06,240
Yes, but but the way that I see it is as long as this thing is charged in the morning

1253
02:02:06,800 --> 02:02:14,080
As you're going around to you know, you're bottling Let's use Pepsi as an example just because they were one of the first customers for the tesla semi

1254
02:02:14,240 --> 02:02:18,080
So you're going around to your various ports of call. You're going to like the bottling depot here

1255
02:02:18,080 --> 02:02:22,480
You're dropping off some you're making some drop offs at a distribution hub here You're going back to the bottling depot

1256
02:02:22,480 --> 02:02:26,160
If at every one of those are at or at some of those at the ones that you own

1257
02:02:26,480 --> 02:02:31,200
You're able to plug in while things are are loading and and being unloaded a little bit more

1258
02:02:31,680 --> 02:02:34,720
You can you can juice yourself up a little bit over the course of the day

1259
02:02:35,040 --> 02:02:37,840
And if you're mostly doing local distribution runs

1260
02:02:38,480 --> 02:02:45,040
This is just going to be so huge for everything from noise to urban smog to

1261
02:02:45,920 --> 02:02:52,320
Just convenience for operators like driving a big rig like like uh like man, do you know that some of them have like two stick shifts?

1262
02:02:53,280 --> 02:02:58,160
I didn't know what the two. Yeah, I didn't know you can like slip gears on purpose and there's all this like

1263
02:02:58,880 --> 02:03:01,280
Like driving a truck is non-simple

1264
02:03:02,080 --> 02:03:11,440
If it could be if it could be one One pedal driving semis like if we could lower the barrier to entry for for operating these vehicles

1265
02:03:12,560 --> 02:03:18,800
Lower the mental load of operating them so you can be more focused on the road right the barrier entry thinks spooks me because of the amount of

1266
02:03:19,360 --> 02:03:24,880
Opened tin cans we've had in in bc of people hitting bridges when I say okay when I say lower the barrier to entry

1267
02:03:24,880 --> 02:03:29,040
I don't mean that we need people who are less cognitively capable of operating them

1268
02:03:29,120 --> 02:03:35,840
What I mean is that fewer just fewer distractions. Sure. Um, I just I see this as an absolute

1269
02:03:36,160 --> 02:03:40,720
I see this as an absolute win. Yeah, it seems cool. I always have like a little bit of skepticism

1270
02:03:41,280 --> 02:03:46,640
um Because of their track record on being able to hit their targets and stuff like that

1271
02:03:46,640 --> 02:03:50,480
But sure these things just rolling off the line sounds great to me

1272
02:03:51,440 --> 02:03:58,320
Uh, tim asks, how about maintenance? I mean look a diesel engine is a super reliable

1273
02:03:59,040 --> 02:04:03,520
Engine, you know, like a like a Cummins diesel that you might find in a large truck

1274
02:04:03,920 --> 02:04:09,440
It's gonna be pretty flippin reliable like those Volvo trucks. They'll do a million miles, you know

1275
02:04:10,160 --> 02:04:17,520
And that's not even like that's not even like Whoa, you should get a free truck because it did a million miles, you know, like remember that first car

1276
02:04:18,000 --> 02:04:22,240
That that like traveling salesman or whatever who put a million miles on his car and the company gave him a new one

1277
02:04:22,480 --> 02:04:26,240
Like that's not that's not even like that remarkable but

1278
02:04:26,240 --> 02:04:31,680
Uh, actually, okay. Hayago ego says diesels used to be super reliable, but now they are not as good

1279
02:04:32,240 --> 02:04:40,480
interesting Okay, classic. Yeah, no many such cases. No comment on that. I I was not aware of that from my understanding

1280
02:04:40,880 --> 02:04:43,360
Big rigs do tend to be pretty reliable

1281
02:04:43,920 --> 02:04:50,000
um Edison Loaders hold on a second. Um, but yeah from a maintenance standpoint

1282
02:04:50,000 --> 02:04:55,920
I know that my experience with electric vehicles has been that it's relatively low and I would imagine that especially on braking

1283
02:04:56,560 --> 02:05:02,640
these would just be So much better breaking on one of these must be insane, right?

1284
02:05:04,080 --> 02:05:08,320
Yeah, I mean, maybe I'm missing something here. Feel free to tell me if I'm missing something

1285
02:05:08,640 --> 02:05:14,800
But regenerative braking would be amazing for trucks and they spend so much time idling and stuff. It's just relative

1286
02:05:15,520 --> 02:05:19,440
What if it takes so much energy to get them going that it's it's relative. I'm not sure

1287
02:05:20,880 --> 02:05:28,960
Um Okay, hold on Either way neat cool to be clear. Let's see it when it happens. Tesla's not the only player in the game

1288
02:05:29,040 --> 02:05:35,040
We actually I really I still need to go these guys shipping check out these guys. Uh, can you buy a semi truck from them?

1289
02:05:35,600 --> 02:05:37,600
Uh

1290
02:05:39,120 --> 02:05:50,560
Okay, so hybrid so Diesel and battery so hybrid trucks could be a better approach to a cool idea to long range trucking and Edison motors is a company that

1291
02:05:51,520 --> 02:05:58,000
They they they're doing like an investment drive right now Like I don't know what kind of shape they're in right now

1292
02:05:58,400 --> 02:06:02,160
So this is not like an endorsement of the company or anything like that

1293
02:06:02,240 --> 02:06:10,080
I I don't know enough to say one way or the other But I do I do love the idea of what they're doing

1294
02:06:10,640 --> 02:06:12,640
Um

1295
02:06:16,080 --> 02:06:20,400
VNG supernova says I thought semis used pneumatic braking so regen braking wouldn't be that useful

1296
02:06:20,720 --> 02:06:23,680
Does the tesla semi not use regen braking?

1297
02:06:25,120 --> 02:06:27,120
And they're braking

1298
02:06:28,240 --> 02:06:31,520
Uses powerful regenerative braking across all three electric motors is yeah

1299
02:06:32,880 --> 02:06:38,240
Um Yeah, no, no, no, yeah regular semis do use pneumatic a lot of them use air brakes

1300
02:06:38,640 --> 02:06:40,640
But no the tesla should be uh

1301
02:06:42,160 --> 02:06:44,960
Should be using regenerative braking. Yeah, yeah uses regenerative braking

1302
02:06:45,200 --> 02:06:52,480
So that's kind of like the whole point of the tesla semis is that it is doing things differently to bring advantages that traditional semis do not

1303
02:06:54,480 --> 02:07:00,480
Uh kitsune sensei says most of your wishes for trucks are already reality outside of north america. This is this is true

1304
02:07:00,880 --> 02:07:04,240
uh electric trucks in um

1305
02:07:04,320 --> 02:07:08,480
Like I I remember seeing like a crazy number apparently in the last year

1306
02:07:08,720 --> 02:07:14,480
There were more electric trucks produced in china than the entire total addressable market

1307
02:07:14,880 --> 02:07:17,280
Like the entire annual market for um

1308
02:07:18,000 --> 02:07:24,000
Fossil fuel and electric trucks in north america. Um, so yes electric trucks are definitely a thing

1309
02:07:24,480 --> 02:07:28,720
But guys it's good news wancho. Can we just let a win be a win?

1310
02:07:29,360 --> 02:07:31,440
Okay, there's more electric trucks on the road

1311
02:07:35,120 --> 02:07:41,520
All right Uh, what else we got you want to pick one? Sure. Let's jump through here

1312
02:07:43,600 --> 02:07:46,800
I think I know what you might pick. I'm gonna be ready for it. Is it just the next one?

1313
02:07:49,120 --> 02:07:58,960
Right to repair repeal repelled What a what a title colorados consumer rights continue kick rocks corpos colorados consumer rights right to repair digital

1314
02:07:58,960 --> 02:08:06,000
electronics equipment law took effect in january 2026 providing access to documentation and tools to repair or modify electronics

1315
02:08:06,080 --> 02:08:13,200
however A new bill was proposed that would create an exception for critical infrastructure a term that advocates

1316
02:08:13,680 --> 02:08:19,120
uh That advocates feel is too loosely defined

1317
02:08:19,600 --> 02:08:25,680
The bill was supported by lobbyists for sisco and ibm and passed unanimously through the colorados senate

1318
02:08:26,240 --> 02:08:34,640
Really? But was shot down in a seven to four vote by the colorado houses state civic military and veteran affairs committee

1319
02:08:35,280 --> 02:08:40,560
The core arguments from sisco representatives claims that there was potential cyber security risks

1320
02:08:42,800 --> 02:08:47,920
To what uh, what's the stop bad actors from using those tools to reverse engineer internet routers?

1321
02:08:48,480 --> 02:08:55,280
I mean lots. Okay carry on The cyber security experts pointed out it doesn't really work like that

1322
02:08:55,520 --> 02:09:00,640
The vast majority of hacks are carried out remotely and it is more likely the victims of hacks

1323
02:09:00,960 --> 02:09:04,960
Um that that need to make changes on the fly without acquiring permission from manufacturers

1324
02:09:05,760 --> 02:09:09,520
Yes Yeah

1325
02:09:09,760 --> 02:09:12,480
Cool. Oh man our discussion question here is

1326
02:09:13,600 --> 02:09:17,680
Is there is there? Oh, okay. No, I misread it. I thought it was wanting us to get into

1327
02:09:18,400 --> 02:09:24,240
Whether lobbying should be a thing or not. Oh, no, we're definitely not approaching that on the WAN Show today. No

1328
02:09:25,040 --> 02:09:28,160
I thought you were going to do this one Oh

1329
02:09:28,160 --> 02:09:32,640
Where is that one? Up a little higher. I see it. Yeah. Yeah

1330
02:09:33,280 --> 02:09:38,160
This week Noctua announced that they now offer public 3d CAD models for all their fans

1331
02:09:38,480 --> 02:09:43,120
You can find the files directly from their product download section just like any fan

1332
02:09:43,840 --> 02:09:51,200
Sorry, just find any fans such as the classic nff 12 pwm. Oh once I go away

1333
02:09:52,480 --> 02:09:58,240
If you want to download a step file to check it out sammy might have a 3d printed one for you to check out

1334
02:09:58,880 --> 02:10:06,880
Which is here Yeah, it is worth noting that this is not going to allow you to make your own Noctua fan

1335
02:10:07,440 --> 02:10:11,840
This fan that luke is holding is not really a fan so much as it is a

1336
02:10:12,560 --> 02:10:16,000
There's no motor model of a fan. Yeah, there's no motor in it and

1337
02:10:18,560 --> 02:10:25,520
Noctua says that they intentionally adjusted the geometry a little bit so that cosmetically it looks like their fans

1338
02:10:26,000 --> 02:10:32,480
But if you were to 3d print your own fan and actually put a motor in it, it would not achieve the same performance characteristics

1339
02:10:33,840 --> 02:10:37,120
You know, obviously that wouldn't prevent anyone from

1340
02:10:37,840 --> 02:10:42,960
You just buying a real Noctua fan and scanning it or whatever a sophisticated enough counterfeiter

1341
02:10:43,680 --> 02:10:48,960
Would be able to make it without this anyway But this is more for community members to

1342
02:10:49,440 --> 02:10:54,400
Have realistic looking Noctua products in their, you know, their renderings or whatever else. Sure

1343
02:10:54,800 --> 02:10:59,280
Yeah, I think I don't know. I just I just I just thought it was pretty cool. Sweet

1344
02:10:59,440 --> 02:11:02,880
Exactly in other sweet news

1345
02:11:03,440 --> 02:11:07,600
Libre pods no longer requires root for some features

1346
02:11:08,000 --> 02:11:15,040
So Libre pods if you're not familiar is a way to use air pods on Android and have some of the

1347
02:11:15,840 --> 02:11:23,040
Apple exclusive features accessible the app now works without root privileges on google pixels

1348
02:11:24,240 --> 02:11:27,760
Running Android 16 march update or later with the latest play system update

1349
02:11:28,560 --> 02:11:33,280
Google pixels running Android 17 beta 3 or above. Okay, hold on. I'm a little confused by those two

1350
02:11:35,680 --> 02:11:38,080
Are my do I have a problem with my notes?

1351
02:11:39,840 --> 02:11:41,840
Control f pixel

1352
02:11:43,680 --> 02:11:53,680
Okay, well Milage may vary on those two one plus devices that are running oxygen os 16 and above opo devices on color os 16 and above

1353
02:11:53,920 --> 02:11:56,960
and real me devices on real me ui 7.0

1354
02:11:57,360 --> 02:12:01,600
And above you can now get the following features without root

1355
02:12:02,240 --> 02:12:05,600
noise control modes ear detection

1356
02:12:05,600 --> 02:12:10,320
battery status head gestures And conversational awareness

1357
02:12:10,800 --> 02:12:16,000
There are a few more features that Libre pods supports but still require root and that's hearing aid mode

1358
02:12:16,480 --> 02:12:20,560
customized transparency mode and multi device connectivity. Honestly, they've nailed down

1359
02:12:21,520 --> 02:12:26,960
Most of the stuff that I would think I would need the app is free on the play store

1360
02:12:27,200 --> 02:12:32,640
But does require an in-app purchase of five euro in order to unlock all functionality

1361
02:12:32,640 --> 02:12:36,080
I think I actually bought it a while ago. I just need to check. Um, it's

1362
02:12:37,120 --> 02:12:41,040
My uh, my galaxy phone is still not on the list, but I am

1363
02:12:42,240 --> 02:12:45,520
Very very ready to have more

1364
02:12:46,960 --> 02:12:53,280
More Libre pods goodness Man, it's amazing how many updates like modern

1365
02:12:54,160 --> 02:12:58,720
Platforms make to make them supposedly faster and yet they are so slow

1366
02:12:59,280 --> 02:13:03,840
Like I remember when it's a lot of updates are not for speed youtube updated their dashboard

1367
02:13:03,840 --> 02:13:09,520
They claimed it was all about speed. It is still slower than it ever was like the creator dashboard and like graphs and everything

1368
02:13:10,160 --> 02:13:13,520
Like hello, can we can look can I search for something?

1369
02:13:14,080 --> 02:13:17,120
Anyway, not right now apparently. Uh, what else we got today?

1370
02:13:18,080 --> 02:13:20,080
Um, let's see

1371
02:13:22,880 --> 02:13:31,600
Boink pentathlon the LTT boink team will be competing in the seventh boink pentathlon running from 17th that makes more sense

1372
02:13:32,000 --> 02:13:37,600
Uh, running from may 5th to 19th in this event will go up against other tech communities

1373
02:13:37,920 --> 02:13:42,320
Contributing computing power through boink to support scientific research and progress

1374
02:13:42,720 --> 02:13:47,920
Last year LTT placed in second overall our goal this year is to take home the gold

1375
02:13:48,560 --> 02:13:53,920
If you want to join the competition and support science, you can find the details and sign up on the thread on the forum

1376
02:13:54,560 --> 02:13:57,760
Oh, I finally have a use for my computer. I'll compete this year with you guys

1377
02:13:59,520 --> 02:14:08,880
Here's all the details. There will be prizes Oh, wow, there's community donated prizes. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah steam keys. Uh, yeah. Well, we're providing some pricing too, right?

1378
02:14:09,680 --> 02:14:14,080
We better be we better be well, but we're on it. We'll find some prizes. Don't worry about it

1379
02:14:15,200 --> 02:14:19,600
Uh, let me uh, I didn't see us in there, but we usually do. Yeah, I don't know. We'll we'll get it done

1380
02:14:20,480 --> 02:14:23,920
Heck yeah all right cool

1381
02:14:23,920 --> 02:14:25,920
Heck yeah LTT forum and

1382
02:14:27,600 --> 02:14:31,680
Xbox mode begins rolling out to players on Windows 11 pc's

1383
02:14:32,720 --> 02:14:41,360
scroll Today microsoft is expanding what used to be called the full screen experience on handhelds like the rog xbox ally

1384
02:14:41,760 --> 02:14:44,880
To all Windows 11 pc's laptops desktops tablets

1385
02:14:45,440 --> 02:14:53,680
Etc xbox mode is a full screen controller optimized interface that puts your game library front and center while minimizing background distractions

1386
02:14:54,080 --> 02:14:58,160
Rolling out gradually in select markets via Windows update

1387
02:14:58,560 --> 02:15:04,240
You can toggle it in settings then enter it with Windows and f11 from the game bar

1388
02:15:05,440 --> 02:15:10,960
Or by pressing the xbox button on a paired controller. Yeah, so three different ways to activate it

1389
02:15:11,840 --> 02:15:15,440
Discussion question is xbox mode what Windows gaming should have been all along?

1390
02:15:17,520 --> 02:15:24,720
Yeah Probably yeah, I mean it's it's basically the game folder from Windows vista, but like way better

1391
02:15:25,440 --> 02:15:28,640
Um overall, I like it ish

1392
02:15:29,280 --> 02:15:31,280
um

1393
02:15:32,560 --> 02:15:35,920
In some ways it feels like it can be a little unnecessary

1394
02:15:36,640 --> 02:15:40,640
Because my entire game library is in steam pretty much

1395
02:15:41,440 --> 02:15:48,400
Uh, but if I was someone who had a game library that spanned multiple launchers to a greater degree then

1396
02:15:48,960 --> 02:15:56,000
Yeah, having the the xbox mode experience consolidate them all would have more of a value to me

1397
02:15:56,480 --> 02:16:04,000
I definitely have multiple launchers Yeah, uh, I mean, you might like it with yeah, I might especially with um new assassin's creed

1398
02:16:04,240 --> 02:16:09,920
Not new assassin's creed the new assassin's creed remaster coming and stuff. It's definitely a little bit

1399
02:16:10,480 --> 02:16:12,800
You know full of game pass and stuff

1400
02:16:13,920 --> 02:16:17,760
But you don't have to click those buttons so

1401
02:16:17,840 --> 02:16:21,600
As they're there they'll probably annoy me. Well, let's see. Let's see

1402
02:16:22,400 --> 02:16:27,360
Uh Hey speaking of things that are there and might not annoy you toyota's limited edition

1403
02:16:28,320 --> 02:16:34,320
$3,500 crown gaming chair. I mean is here. You know what does annoy me about this is I've

1404
02:16:35,280 --> 02:16:37,280
I don't know man. I don't fit a lot of chairs

1405
02:16:39,120 --> 02:16:44,160
Just being honest. Mm-hmm. I don't so I saw this and was like no way

1406
02:16:45,120 --> 02:16:49,760
Let's go. I want the purchase page right now and then I saw the price

1407
02:16:50,400 --> 02:16:52,960
And I was like well someone will have fun with that

1408
02:16:54,480 --> 02:16:58,320
It looks pretty fancy

1409
02:17:00,000 --> 02:17:04,480
USBC I didn't notice that when I first looked at it. That is actually so funny

1410
02:17:05,200 --> 02:17:13,440
um Sorry, my uh, my zoom. Wait. Wait. Wait. My zoom is being a little funky. Uh here. Hold on. I'm 100 percent

1411
02:17:14,160 --> 02:17:21,280
Yeah, why is it $3,500 though? It's like the crown collection like the price of two monitors

1412
02:17:24,720 --> 02:17:31,680
That's so painful heating the cooling sounds pretty cool cooling sounds incredible the cooling sounds amazing

1413
02:17:32,480 --> 02:17:36,560
um I don't know what I would do with this

1414
02:17:37,840 --> 02:17:43,200
You know what my chair at home is right now charging I guess because it wouldn't be data like it wouldn't be connected to my computer

1415
02:17:43,600 --> 02:17:49,920
Don't answer that luke. We got a merge message for later. Wait. Oh, okay. Oh wait for some reason. What's in the caboose?

1416
02:17:52,000 --> 02:17:54,320
Uh, is that all the like is that the like

1417
02:17:55,200 --> 02:17:58,640
Oh, does it stuff for the heating and cooling the junk wait?

1418
02:17:59,120 --> 02:18:04,080
Like this needs to be like plugged in. Oh, I'm sure right which makes sense. Yeah heating and cooling

1419
02:18:04,400 --> 02:18:08,080
Wow, you know, I I want to try it. Is it japan only though?

1420
02:18:08,800 --> 02:18:14,160
I think it's japan only you just just you know, there's only about 70 units being made

1421
02:18:14,960 --> 02:18:19,680
Oh, why man? ah

1422
02:18:20,400 --> 02:18:25,360
Okay My question is if you're gonna put the work into creating it

1423
02:18:26,960 --> 02:18:31,600
Why so few you know, there's more than 70 people who'd be like

1424
02:18:32,560 --> 02:18:38,560
Toyota gaming chair and just do it 3,500 more than 70 for sure. Come on

1425
02:18:40,560 --> 02:18:46,160
Toyota fanboys With money and the toyota crown. You know, they didn't spend that much on their car

1426
02:18:46,320 --> 02:18:49,280
So the toyota crown is one of those like super fancy cars, right?

1427
02:18:50,000 --> 02:18:53,920
Uh, I actually I'm pretty sure it is. Don't know. What's a toyota crown?

1428
02:18:55,200 --> 02:19:00,160
I thought they were really nice Yeah

1429
02:19:00,480 --> 02:19:08,320
Yeah, it according to ai the toyota crown hybrid sedan starts at around 55,000 canadian dollars

1430
02:19:09,760 --> 02:19:18,720
So no not even like I said they bought a toyota So they clearly didn't overpay for their car so they can afford so they can afford a fancy chair. I guess I don't know

1431
02:19:20,640 --> 02:19:28,560
Is this a plug-in hybrid Is it what the chair? No the car. Oh, oh, I'm a hybrid system

1432
02:19:29,840 --> 02:19:33,440
If it doesn't say plug-in hybrid, then it's just a regular hybrid

1433
02:19:34,160 --> 02:19:36,800
powertrains limited models blah blah hybrid system

1434
02:19:37,520 --> 02:19:41,760
Sure, but charge hybrid max. Yeah. No, no, they're hybrid not plug-in. Ah, damn. Sorry luke

1435
02:19:44,960 --> 02:19:53,040

When finally the show is brought to you by ninja one if you manage more than a handful of machines

1446
02:20:50,320 --> 02:20:55,040
You probably know that it can be a bit of a nightmare keeping everything patched monitored and under control

1447
02:20:55,440 --> 02:21:03,200
Without that becoming a full-time job on its own. Well our sponsor ninja one lets you handle endpoint management patch management remote access and

1448
02:21:04,960 --> 02:21:10,000
um And what I assume this is backup

1449
02:21:11,360 --> 02:21:17,600
I Must be from a single console. Okay. They do that. So that must be it just says back in my notes

1450
02:21:17,920 --> 02:21:27,840
Yeah from a single console whether that's for Windows macOS Linux servers or mobile devices ninja one was built for it teams and msp's who were tired of

1451
02:21:28,240 --> 02:21:31,360
metaphorically duck taping a bunch of tools together

1452
02:21:31,680 --> 02:21:37,200
It's been rated number one by users across 14 it management categories on g2 in the spring of this year

1456
02:21:54,960 --> 02:22:00,560
We've got a couple more topics still too Do we a bank robber is trying to get out of his conviction

1457
02:22:00,880 --> 02:22:05,840
By claiming that geofence warrants are a violation of his constitutional rights

1458
02:22:05,920 --> 02:22:08,560
This is down in the states the supreme court is hearing this case

1459
02:22:09,120 --> 02:22:14,480
On whether a geofence warrant violates the fourth amendment's protection against unreasonable searches

1460
02:22:14,640 --> 02:22:21,360
What is that the case uh, well here we'll get to it the case stems from a 2019 bank robbery in richmond virginia

1461
02:22:21,680 --> 02:22:24,720
Where a man made off with a hundred ninety five thousand dollars

1462
02:22:25,280 --> 02:22:30,000
Police had no leads until they served a geofence warrant on google

1463
02:22:30,480 --> 02:22:36,640
Which handed over location data for every device that was in the area around the time of the robbery

1464
02:22:36,800 --> 02:22:41,680
Which eventually led to the man's arrest when they found a bunch of cash with them

1465
02:22:43,200 --> 02:22:48,400
So context of geofence warrants if you need it is police draw a virtual circle around a crime scene

1466
02:22:48,720 --> 02:22:55,360
Pick a time window and then ask a tech company like google to hand over data on every device that was inside that circle during that time

1467
02:22:56,080 --> 02:22:58,720
Practical usage tends to follow these stages

1468
02:22:59,280 --> 02:23:05,760
Initial sweep gives police anonymized location pings and timestamps for every device within the circle identified only by numerical IDs

1469
02:23:06,160 --> 02:23:12,480
Police then flag any devices that look suspicious based on movement patterns and go back to the tech company with a follow-up request

1470
02:23:12,720 --> 02:23:18,080
To unmask those specific accounts getting the email address's phone numbers and user names that are tied to them

1471
02:23:18,640 --> 02:23:22,160
In the case of google this data comes from google's location history feature

1472
02:23:22,400 --> 02:23:28,800
Which technically requires you to opt in but most people who use google maps or other google services are already sharing this information

1473
02:23:29,760 --> 02:23:35,040
So the plaintiff's lawyer argued that even anonymized location data acts like a type of fingerprint

1474
02:23:35,200 --> 02:23:38,800
Since your specific moving pattern movement patterns can be used to identify you

1475
02:23:39,120 --> 02:23:44,000
The doj countered that location data just represents public movements that anyone could observe

1476
02:23:44,240 --> 02:23:46,960
So the fourth amendment defense shouldn't apply

1477
02:23:47,440 --> 02:23:54,480
The discussion question here is that the justices seem split and generally reluctant to wait into how the fourth amendment operates in today's world

1478
02:23:57,120 --> 02:24:00,880
This one is complicated

1479
02:24:02,640 --> 02:24:11,680
Yeah, why do criminals keep bringing Identifiable phones to crime scenes. Yeah, but that's a very complicated question that I really will never understand

1480
02:24:11,760 --> 02:24:13,760
But then also also

1481
02:24:15,360 --> 02:24:18,160
Why am I able to be tracked?

1482
02:24:19,440 --> 02:24:27,120
in a personal I personally identifiable way by something that supposedly cares about my privacy

1483
02:24:28,320 --> 02:24:31,200
Yeah, I don't like that, but then counter counterpoint

1484
02:24:32,480 --> 02:24:39,520
If you're a narrow-do-well taking money that ultimately, you know, we all pay for like I'm not an american and I don't bank at that bank

1485
02:24:39,520 --> 02:24:42,960
So I have nothing to do with like that specific case, but at the end of the day

1486
02:24:43,440 --> 02:24:46,960
We all pay for a crime like societally

1487
02:24:46,960 --> 02:24:54,400
um Do I do I mind if never do well everyone there got their information flagged and taken by the government

1488
02:24:54,480 --> 02:25:02,480
But then counter counter counterpoint Yes, to luke's point. That's exactly what the lawyer's arguing and who's defining how big the circle is

1489
02:25:03,280 --> 02:25:07,680
So what if they're like, um, there was a bank robbery in north vancouver. What if

1490
02:25:08,480 --> 02:25:12,800
What if we circled the entire greater vancouver area and just grabbed

1491
02:25:13,920 --> 02:25:19,040
Everything and use this data for multiple other things going on and also so I can track

1492
02:25:19,440 --> 02:25:25,760
My wife's phone to see if she's going somewhere that I don't like or I'm not going to tell anyone that I just did that

1493
02:25:25,760 --> 02:25:28,720
What if there was no bank robbery? What if there was a protest?

1494
02:25:29,280 --> 02:25:32,080
Yeah, now all of a sudden it can become a tool for

1495
02:25:32,720 --> 02:25:34,720
government crackdown

1496
02:25:38,640 --> 02:25:43,040
I actually Do not

1497
02:25:43,040 --> 02:25:46,560
Envy the supreme court justices as they navigate this one

1498
02:25:48,080 --> 02:25:55,040
To be clear I have No pity for buddy who got busted stealing a bunch of money from a bank

1499
02:25:56,640 --> 02:26:00,480
Just desserts However

1500
02:26:00,480 --> 02:26:07,600
The methods do matter If you want to even maintain the branding of having a free society

1501
02:26:09,280 --> 02:26:16,240
And this one is Complicated they're just exercising their freedom to all of your information and data and knowing where you are all the time

1502
02:26:16,720 --> 02:26:19,840
Oh, that's what you think freedom is. It's just it's just freedom

1503
02:26:21,200 --> 02:26:30,560
I don't know what you're talking about Yeah, man freedom is uh, it's she's a complicated. She's a complicated concept. I read a really interesting essay recently on the

1504
02:26:31,440 --> 02:26:37,280
um, the ways that the word and the concept of freedom have been kind of perverted

1505
02:26:38,640 --> 02:26:41,440
From the way that a lot of people kind of

1506
02:26:42,080 --> 02:26:47,760
Intended them in the in the in the in the creation of sort of the the western model of free society

1507
02:26:48,000 --> 02:26:56,160
sure and how They've become kind of divorced from the responsibilities that accompany that freedom

1508
02:26:56,640 --> 02:26:59,840
And how we're not sure if that freedom will survive

1509
02:27:00,720 --> 02:27:04,400
um an unwillingness to also

1510
02:27:05,600 --> 02:27:08,800
Exercise the freedom responsibly and be a part of

1511
02:27:09,520 --> 02:27:15,200
Be a part of that functioning free society. Is it really interesting essay? I wish I could find the link for you guys

1512
02:27:15,280 --> 02:27:19,520
But um, yeah fascinating It doesn't come to a conclusion

1513
02:27:19,600 --> 02:27:25,760
Because it's because it's complicated archangel of death said as the saying goes your freedom ends when the freedom of the big

1514
02:27:25,840 --> 02:27:28,320
Corporation and government starts or something like that

1515
02:27:28,880 --> 02:27:30,880
Yeah, sir

1516
02:27:32,160 --> 02:27:40,240
Just so that everyone's clear Archangel of death meant that with a big fat slash s. Okay relax sometimes

1517
02:27:42,000 --> 02:27:49,520
Well, yeah, but your freedom to have your ip not ripped off just got obliterated by every single ai company on the planet. Well, yes

1518
02:27:51,440 --> 02:27:54,640
Luke It's good news wancho

1519
02:27:54,640 --> 02:28:01,280
Right, okay calm down next topic Android developers are revolting against google's 2026

1520
02:28:01,520 --> 02:28:08,160
Sideloading registration mandate starting september 2026 google is fundamentally changing how sideloading works on Android

1521
02:28:08,720 --> 02:28:13,760
Right now installing an app from outside the play store is as simple as downloading an apk and tapping install

1522
02:28:14,400 --> 02:28:18,240
Sort of you have to enable unknown developers whatever whatever whatever but sort of

1523
02:28:18,960 --> 02:28:23,760
Under the new rules every developer even hobbyists and open source contributors who never touch the play store

1524
02:28:23,920 --> 02:28:30,480
Must register with google verify their identity with government issued id register their app signing keys agree to google's terms and pay $25

1525
02:28:30,480 --> 02:28:36,720
fee If they don't their app gets silently blocked from installing on any certified Android device

1526
02:28:37,440 --> 02:28:41,840
google says that power users Can still install unverified apps

1527
02:28:42,080 --> 02:28:46,880
But the new advanced flow requires enabling developer mode by tapping the build number seven times

1528
02:28:47,040 --> 02:28:52,320
Navigating through multiple setting screens and waiting out a mandatory 24 hour cooling off period

1529
02:28:53,200 --> 02:28:56,480
Over 37 organizations including the eff

1530
02:28:56,960 --> 02:29:02,640
Eftroid proton next cloud and the tour project have signed an open letter demanding the google reverse course

1531
02:29:03,200 --> 02:29:08,560
Eftroid calls the mandate existential since its entire model relies on volunteer and

1532
02:29:09,360 --> 02:29:13,360
pseudonymous developers who have no reason or desire to register with google

1533
02:29:13,920 --> 02:29:19,280
The rollout starts in brazil indonesia singapore and thailand with a global expansion plan for 2027

1534
02:29:19,840 --> 02:29:22,480
custom ROMs like graphing os and linage us

1535
02:29:23,600 --> 02:29:31,600
Are unaffected Discussion question if installing an app on your own phone now requires a 24 hour waiting period in developer mode

1536
02:29:31,760 --> 02:29:34,880
Can google still call Android an open platform?

1537
02:29:35,520 --> 02:29:38,480
I mean, I think they can still call it whatever they want, but is it one?

1538
02:29:38,960 --> 02:29:43,760
Um, I don't know. I think this is something that would kind of push me to do the same thing

1539
02:29:43,760 --> 02:29:46,640
I'm doing with Linux right now on my phone, which is just try alternative options

1540
02:29:46,960 --> 02:29:49,440
Let me pitch you some food for thought

1541
02:29:50,560 --> 02:29:55,840
With this change, would you be more comfortable recommending an Android phone for your grandpa or grandma?

1542
02:29:57,440 --> 02:30:00,960
No, really I would

1543
02:30:00,960 --> 02:30:06,800
straight up 24 hour waiting period for it random apks the way that scams work

1544
02:30:08,000 --> 02:30:13,200
Zero question Now does that mean that I support the move?

1545
02:30:14,160 --> 02:30:17,280
Not necessarily. I see lots of problems with it

1546
02:30:18,400 --> 02:30:21,840
but I also can see

1547
02:30:22,160 --> 02:30:32,160
a good faith argument For why google wants to unmask developers on the platform and they are still offering a way that you can install anything

1548
02:30:33,040 --> 02:30:37,440
You know what I would like a 24 hour waiting period would functionally kill

1549
02:30:38,240 --> 02:30:43,440
The like, oh, yeah, grandpa. Just go here and install this and click through this and click through this

1550
02:30:43,840 --> 02:30:48,320
I'll wait on the phone with you while you dump all of your life savings. A lot of those scams are multi-day long

1551
02:30:49,200 --> 02:30:56,000
Okay, not all That's totally fair. That's what makes it so much more work. Yes, it definitely would I um

1552
02:30:57,120 --> 02:30:59,520
I would like to see this as a

1553
02:31:01,680 --> 02:31:12,720
Feature That is like family management controllable interesting. So like a fleet management feature, but okay, so here's my question though because

1554
02:31:15,040 --> 02:31:21,120
Who is the administrator of that though? Like as as a as a head of family like techie dude

1555
02:31:21,840 --> 02:31:26,640
I hear that and I go. Oh, yeah, that totally makes sense That's how I would manage it through family link and I would do this and I would do that

1556
02:31:27,120 --> 02:31:30,560
But most people's structure is not necessarily like that

1557
02:31:34,640 --> 02:31:38,000
Like I can this is one of those ones where on the surface

1558
02:31:39,440 --> 02:31:43,760
I can see this feels like sacrificing freedom for security in a way that I do not like

1559
02:31:44,240 --> 02:31:47,920
It does but I I think if you put that in the power of users

1560
02:31:48,400 --> 02:31:52,720
Yeah, you'll still lose some people because they're not going to have that type person in their family or whatever

1561
02:31:52,720 --> 02:31:59,920
But in my experience of my my grandpa living far away in a retirement village effectively

1562
02:32:00,160 --> 02:32:03,120
Yep, there was like an it person

1563
02:32:03,760 --> 02:32:10,800
Thing I don't even know what I would call it It was like the person that everyone in that town because it was it was a pretty sprawling area

1564
02:32:10,800 --> 02:32:15,520
But it was and everyone had their own homes and stuff, but it was a retirement focused area. I don't even know

1565
02:32:15,520 --> 02:32:19,600
I'm sure it has a name. I don't know what it is Um retirement community sure

1566
02:32:20,320 --> 02:32:24,320
And I don't know if this person's shop was like on site in that community or not

1567
02:32:24,480 --> 02:32:28,480
But like just everybody knew who he was Um

1568
02:32:28,480 --> 02:32:32,240
and He had a particular way of dealing with everyone

1569
02:32:32,560 --> 02:32:38,720
Which was actually like kind of neat Because it was like the only person everybody really used word of mouth was everywhere

1570
02:32:39,040 --> 02:32:45,280
That like if you were have like if your laptop was screwed up You just exchange you and then fix yours and like sell it to somebody else or whatever

1571
02:32:45,360 --> 02:32:51,360
Like he was pretty good about just like keeping people going Okay, and he had basically like team viewer on everyone's systems

1572
02:32:52,480 --> 02:32:58,560
Which I know But he could tap in if he like needed to help you with something because there would often be like

1573
02:32:58,560 --> 02:33:03,600
Oh, there's something going on with whatever that's what our change of death says 24 hours is enough time for my elderly family members

1574
02:33:03,680 --> 02:33:10,160
To call me just to check if they're doing the right thing I'm still fundamentally against it for other reasons and I think that actually summarizes

1575
02:33:10,800 --> 02:33:17,600
sort of Where I am at right now. I haven't had a lot of time to think about it. My reason for this very long story

1576
02:33:17,760 --> 02:33:22,960
Oh, sorry. Okay, whoever that dude was. Yeah, could maybe enable this thing for these people

1577
02:33:22,960 --> 02:33:27,760
That he was a good actor. What if he wasn't? Yeah, then disaster

1578
02:33:28,080 --> 02:33:33,920
And this is a not a good actor and you're in that dude's position this 24 hour window will not stop you

1579
02:33:34,560 --> 02:33:38,880
This is true fools and horses has a really good point and asks asks the question

1580
02:33:39,600 --> 02:33:48,080
Has Android gotten so large That the risk of being called negligent for allowing these things and for not putting obstacles in the way

1581
02:33:48,640 --> 02:33:54,240
Is greater than the risk of their disgruntled customers over the loss of freedom loss of

1582
02:33:54,800 --> 02:33:58,400
openness How much of the market would they really lose?

1583
02:33:58,880 --> 02:34:04,240
And I think that's got to be the question that google is asking themselves as they navigate this decision

1584
02:34:04,240 --> 02:34:08,080
And I I suspect the answer for how many people they're going to lose is

1585
02:34:09,520 --> 02:34:13,920
Extremely small. Yeah um

1586
02:34:13,920 --> 02:34:17,680
And then that's not like that's not me saying that I support the decision

1587
02:34:18,240 --> 02:34:24,640
I'm just saying that that's The reality is that most people are not even watching the wanshow

1588
02:34:25,200 --> 02:34:32,720
Not even aware of this would have never side-loaded an apk. Anyway, unless some rando told them to do it in which case

1589
02:34:33,760 --> 02:34:37,760
This was probably a thing um

1590
02:34:38,240 --> 02:34:40,240
So g freak asks why is this?

1591
02:34:41,280 --> 02:34:47,840
Also, oh, okay. Sorry. They're responding to someone else. Yeah, never mind. Um, yeah, ann m white says it won't be zero

1592
02:34:47,840 --> 02:34:54,640
But yeah, it will be small Leaving one's most experienced os and just like switching is like kind of a pain like honestly

1593
02:34:54,640 --> 02:34:57,440
That's why Yvonne's still on iOS not because she prefers it

1594
02:34:58,000 --> 02:35:02,640
But just after she did the iphone challenge. She's just like oh switching phone phones

1595
02:35:03,200 --> 02:35:08,080
Pain in the butt. It really is and just I I do think it's going to be pretty negligible

1596
02:35:08,400 --> 02:35:12,720
Our comey and says leave to what iOS. I mean graffin os is an option

1597
02:35:14,320 --> 02:35:22,560
iOS um I saw I saw cool. Uh, this was cool. This was not really good news enough to be good news wanshow, but um

1598
02:35:23,520 --> 02:35:27,680
Windows phone Android launcher someone's uh, someone is working on or

1599
02:35:28,720 --> 02:35:32,800
um Made oh no, apparently this is old

1600
02:35:33,120 --> 02:35:37,760
Just uh an Android launcher that like looks a lot like Windows phone tried that was pretty cool

1601
02:35:38,240 --> 02:35:45,760
Anyway, that's it. That was a little highlight for that I I don't think we're going to reach a conclusion on this one because I don't think that it's it's cut and dried

1602
02:35:45,920 --> 02:35:51,360
It's not simple. I do I do appreciate google's um

1603
02:35:52,400 --> 02:35:55,520
Position that they are still allowing side loading

1604
02:35:56,080 --> 02:36:02,960
With these caveats and for me for my use of Android the handful of times that i've needed to sideload

1605
02:36:03,360 --> 02:36:07,600
This would have been good enough. This would have been a minor inconvenience. Where does the slope end?

1606
02:36:09,440 --> 02:36:14,800
Are we on the slipper so so and I can't tell I don't know that we are i'm not trying to claim necessarily where we are

1607
02:36:15,280 --> 02:36:18,720
I don't either. There are there are times where I have been like this is a slope

1608
02:36:19,200 --> 02:36:23,520
I don't know that this one is but it it smells like one. It well, okay

1609
02:36:24,400 --> 02:36:31,200
In a vacuum, I would push back If this was the only change that google had made to Android over the last five years

1610
02:36:31,440 --> 02:36:36,160
Then I'd be like luke come on. Yeah, they've been good stewards. They've done this. They've done that

1611
02:36:37,760 --> 02:36:41,760
In the context of everything that google has done though with chrome and with Android

1612
02:36:42,160 --> 02:36:44,880
um But their products in general over

1613
02:36:45,600 --> 02:36:51,520
I mean the last while It's a lot harder for me to do that. I've they've lost my trust. Yeah

1614
02:36:52,320 --> 02:37:01,040
And I think that's a big part of it. It's like they've There was a time when google might have done this and said trust me bro. I got you and I said, okay, I would have

1615
02:37:02,080 --> 02:37:06,720
I still have a little bit of that with them, but not as much as before I feel like they uh

1616
02:37:07,920 --> 02:37:14,320
Let's check in on killed by google I feel like they've been slowing down, but I'm not sure

1617
02:37:21,920 --> 02:37:25,200
Okay, so 2026 and beyond is these

1618
02:37:26,000 --> 02:37:30,640
Oh, okay. Yeah, that's actually not that much compared to I mean

1619
02:37:31,680 --> 02:37:35,440
2024 being like

1620
02:37:35,920 --> 02:37:39,120
What all of this the post covet time was a big

1621
02:37:39,680 --> 02:37:44,400
Was a time of a lot of consolidation for the big tech companies

1622
02:37:45,760 --> 02:37:49,760
Team sizes shrank projects were abandoned. It wasn't just google at that time

1623
02:37:51,360 --> 02:37:57,680
Wow That's me. Yeah, the google is like the the corporate

1624
02:37:58,400 --> 02:38:02,160
Uh embodiment of throw things at the wall and see what sticks man

1625
02:38:02,160 --> 02:38:11,680
Yeah And this next uh after dark segment is the embodiment of throw questions at

1626
02:38:12,560 --> 02:38:17,120
Us and producer Dan. He's a rubber made bin shelf now. There he is

1627
02:38:17,680 --> 02:38:20,000
Uh throw questions at us and see what sticks

1628
02:38:21,920 --> 02:38:27,920
I have become square Let me get us changed over uh after dark

1629
02:38:28,800 --> 02:38:34,020
And I have to push this button to Sorry that came out of nowhere. It was unprepared

1630
02:38:35,280 --> 02:38:39,680
You good Hey lld

1631
02:38:39,680 --> 02:38:42,960
I've been thinking about this lately badminton is super popular around the world

1632
02:38:42,960 --> 02:38:50,720
But most pluriplayers aside from the very top don't seem to make nearly as much as athletes in other big sports

1633
02:38:51,120 --> 02:38:54,160
I think about this a lot. So

1634
02:38:55,200 --> 02:38:57,920
Take this for the semi-informed

1635
02:38:58,640 --> 02:39:02,320
Um Rant that it kind of is

1636
02:39:02,960 --> 02:39:07,040
Um, I think it's a number of problems and I think that

1637
02:39:07,680 --> 02:39:12,320
bwf So badminton world federation is doing some things right to address it

1638
02:39:13,040 --> 02:39:17,440
For for instance, they actually just recently changed the scoring format. So

1639
02:39:18,320 --> 02:39:26,240
In the in the olden days. So I guess this ended ended in the 90s or early 2000s. I think badminton was done with service point

1640
02:39:26,560 --> 02:39:33,040
So that is that you can only score a point when you begin the rally with the serve. Okay, so it was service point

1641
02:39:34,320 --> 02:39:37,040
Sets of 15 and then best of three sets

1642
02:39:37,840 --> 02:39:42,320
The problem with service point is that the games would sometimes drag on forever

1643
02:39:42,320 --> 02:39:49,760
It was an enormous burden on the athletes and when you consider that oftentimes during tournaments, they're playing back to back to back

1644
02:39:50,480 --> 02:39:55,280
Across subsequent days It could put you at a major disadvantage if one of your

1645
02:39:56,000 --> 02:40:00,400
If one of your sets dragged on for a really long time because you have to win by two

1646
02:40:00,720 --> 02:40:04,720
So a service point win by two means that you could

1647
02:40:04,720 --> 02:40:07,520
just defensively carry things forever and it really

1648
02:40:08,320 --> 02:40:14,480
Rewarded endurance and less aggressive play. So it was changed to rally point

1649
02:40:14,640 --> 02:40:18,080
So you can win a point on any service, whether it's yours or the other players

1650
02:40:18,640 --> 02:40:22,160
Um, so I believe in the I believe in the 2000s don't quote me on that

1651
02:40:22,160 --> 02:40:27,040
But I believe it was the 2000s to encourage a more aggressive style of play

1652
02:40:27,440 --> 02:40:31,680
But to make sure the matches weren't crazy short. It was changed to 21 points per set

1653
02:40:33,280 --> 02:40:40,720
I think the 21 point service point or excuse me 21 point rally point format still best of three

1654
02:40:41,200 --> 02:40:49,360
Was horrible for the game Not for the players the players like it and they actually from my understanding still mostly like it

1655
02:40:49,360 --> 02:40:54,800
And there's a lot of resistance to the new scoring format, which is 15 points rally point

1656
02:40:57,840 --> 02:41:02,960
But why I think it's so detrimental to the sport is it's really boring to watch

1657
02:41:04,000 --> 02:41:09,360
A 21 point match I mean, tell me how important in hockey

1658
02:41:09,840 --> 02:41:18,080
How important is the first goal to you as a player right? Yeah, extremely extremely important from the opening faceoff from that moment

1659
02:41:19,200 --> 02:41:24,800
The entire game could be riding on the line It's also a significant amount of like fear at any point in time that something might happen

1660
02:41:24,800 --> 02:41:29,280
Which could result in a goal Okay, like if you see if you're if you're you know if the

1661
02:41:29,840 --> 02:41:33,040
If the enemy team is in your team zone and you're a fan

1662
02:41:33,520 --> 02:41:37,520
You're shaking in your boots At most stages of the game. Yes. Okay

1663
02:41:38,160 --> 02:41:42,480
So counterpoint what if a hockey game was played to 21 goals?

1664
02:41:43,680 --> 02:41:46,320
Yeah, you don't care that much the first goal are you

1665
02:41:47,520 --> 02:41:54,240
Almost doesn't matter So what's happened and especially you got to set the tone especially in a format that

1666
02:41:55,840 --> 02:42:02,240
Is is like a seeded bracketed tournament where your top seeds are playing against your bottom seeds

1667
02:42:02,560 --> 02:42:07,360
Up until you reach realistically like the the round of 16 or quarter finals

1668
02:42:08,320 --> 02:42:10,800
You end up with a lot of boring play

1669
02:42:11,680 --> 02:42:19,280
That no one cares about Because the first like a little bit of the game is everyone just kind of like settling in

1670
02:42:20,000 --> 02:42:24,480
And then after that you've got like a very obvious who's going to win and who's not going to win

1671
02:42:25,040 --> 02:42:29,200
And there's very little upset in the rally point system because

1672
02:42:30,080 --> 02:42:32,720
A better player will just win more points

1673
02:42:33,440 --> 02:42:36,880
And there's less like oh, but hold on he could defend

1674
02:42:37,600 --> 02:42:41,440
He could defend their service regain the serve

1675
02:42:41,440 --> 02:42:45,040
And like like like scrape his way back into the game

1676
02:42:45,040 --> 02:42:49,200
You don't really get as many momentum swings and you get don't get as many upsets

1677
02:42:49,440 --> 02:42:54,720
And you get a lot of the game that's just kind of like people are the players themselves are kind of tuned out

1678
02:42:54,720 --> 02:42:58,720
They're not going as hard And I think it's really boring to watch

1679
02:42:59,280 --> 02:43:06,400
The other thing that contributes to badminton being boring to watch is the camera is is the broadcast the camera angles

1680
02:43:07,200 --> 02:43:10,320
suck They do such a poor job

1681
02:43:10,320 --> 02:43:15,040
I remember showing someone like a really high level badminton match at one point and i'm going well

1682
02:43:15,040 --> 02:43:17,920
Why are they just like lobbing it to each other and i'm like

1683
02:43:18,960 --> 02:43:22,560
Bro, if I hit those shots to you on a court

1684
02:43:23,120 --> 02:43:28,560
And you like properly understood from the actual movement how far they're going they travel

1685
02:43:29,200 --> 02:43:35,280
Way farther in way less time than top level tennis players, but you don't know that from watching it. You can't tell

1686
02:43:36,080 --> 02:43:41,440
Like the sheer athleticism of the game is not apparent from farther. I don't think that's true way farther

1687
02:43:41,520 --> 02:43:45,520
It's not even close. You cannot think it's true, but it's in the amount of time. I think you're totally right

1688
02:43:45,520 --> 02:43:48,640
But no it's it's not even close. I promise you

1689
02:43:49,120 --> 02:43:55,440
Men so it's a men singles to men singles like top level olympic match comparison someone did the math total distance move

1690
02:43:55,600 --> 02:44:00,400
Total distance okay, I think yeah, I think we're talking about different things Total distance moved is higher

1691
02:44:00,960 --> 02:44:08,560
And it's in less time Both of those things it's crazy like what they're doing out there and the explosiveness of the movement. It's a great game

1692
02:44:08,560 --> 02:44:18,320
It's a wonderful game You can't tell the the the the angles do it no service whatsoever and especially the english-speaking commentators

1693
02:44:18,320 --> 02:44:20,320
They might as well be commentating golf

1694
02:44:22,000 --> 02:44:25,120
So i'm coming around to my point finally you should commentate a game

1695
02:44:26,400 --> 02:44:33,520
It'd be fun. I'd not experienced. I'm not like I it would still be very amateur and like crappy and boring bring one

1696
02:44:34,080 --> 02:44:37,040
This is how game casting does it bring one person

1697
02:44:37,680 --> 02:44:40,560
On who bring one of the people from badminton insights

1698
02:44:42,320 --> 02:44:48,080
And you And then you have like you're the energy right and they're the facts person

1699
02:44:48,880 --> 02:44:53,760
Okay, you know what that's kind of an interesting idea. It's kind of an interesting idea. I kind of I kind of like the idea

1700
02:44:54,480 --> 02:45:01,440
Um Anyway, I'm coming around to my point here So you ask why the players aren't paid as much and it's because

1701
02:45:02,160 --> 02:45:06,560
In my humble opinion I see a lot of resistance from the players

1702
02:45:07,280 --> 02:45:11,600
To rule changes that would make the game more entertaining to watch

1703
02:45:12,240 --> 02:45:15,200
Where does money come from? Interesting. It doesn't

1704
02:45:15,680 --> 02:45:21,600
Necessarily come from people playing the game in their backyards. They'll go and they'll buy a racket from yonix or victor or whatever

1705
02:45:21,600 --> 02:45:25,440
So there's revenue coming into the companies that are that are sponsoring these events

1706
02:45:26,160 --> 02:45:28,960
But it's not necessarily attributable to the players

1707
02:45:29,600 --> 02:45:34,240
It's not attributable necessarily to the broadcast except like you said to those very top players

1708
02:45:34,480 --> 02:45:42,160
Where the matches are interesting where anyone could win So I would actually like to see them go even farther in the reduction of points per set

1709
02:45:42,480 --> 02:45:45,840
I'd like to see something that's closer to like a tennis scoring system

1710
02:45:46,320 --> 02:45:49,440
Uh, so for badminton because the rallies are generally shorter

1711
02:45:49,920 --> 02:45:53,200
What I'd like to see is maybe like best of five sets

1712
02:45:53,760 --> 02:46:00,880
But playing service point to like five points or seven points. So very very very short sets

1713
02:46:02,240 --> 02:46:06,800
But that have service point in order to give an opportunity for upset victories because

1714
02:46:07,440 --> 02:46:12,240
Realistically even if I'm a much better badminton player than you I could make three mistakes

1715
02:46:12,640 --> 02:46:18,240
If you know, yeah, I'm kidding. Yeah, but but I could make three mistakes. Sure. Sure. Now the pressure's on

1716
02:46:18,400 --> 02:46:23,440
Yeah, yeah, right you create tension. I want tension and I want excitement

1717
02:46:23,840 --> 02:46:28,400
The whole time I'm watching think about sports that are fun to watch that keep you on the edge of your seat

1718
02:46:28,560 --> 02:46:33,600
The whole time you're watching anything could happen. Yeah, it's a yeah, it's always tension badminton doesn't achieve that

1719
02:46:34,560 --> 02:46:38,720
All the ideas your idea is very interesting all the ideas. I've been trying to think of while sitting here

1720
02:46:38,880 --> 02:46:42,880
I don't think work for the players at all. I had one where like if your rally gets

1721
02:46:43,600 --> 02:46:47,760
Far enough in It starts it becomes like worth more or something

1722
02:46:49,120 --> 02:46:52,480
But like that now you have no players like counting on

1723
02:46:53,120 --> 02:46:58,160
Course it doesn't work. Yeah, it would be kind of fun as like a video game, but it doesn't work as like a sport

1724
02:46:58,240 --> 02:47:04,320
Yeah, like and then and then if you get enough multiplier bonus you could have you could nuke your opponent from orbit

1725
02:47:04,720 --> 02:47:10,960
With the geo positioning laser if you if you go six six rally back and forth you can like double jump

1726
02:47:11,280 --> 02:47:16,240
You could do a special a special combo move

1727
02:47:18,320 --> 02:47:24,560
Um helicopter hit. Yeah, so there. Sorry. That's my extremely long answer to what I think is wrong with badminton is it's not

1728
02:47:24,720 --> 02:47:29,680
It's not fun enough to watch a lot of sports have that problem. Yeah, it also has the problem of like

1729
02:47:30,880 --> 02:47:35,760
being very very multinational and therefore

1730
02:47:35,760 --> 02:47:40,320
um It being hard to get like good common language interviews

1731
02:47:41,280 --> 02:47:45,040
For your various geographies of audience. Yeah, um

1732
02:47:46,400 --> 02:47:51,600
Ah It's tough It like it's it's a funny thing because in general

1733
02:47:52,400 --> 02:47:57,520
I I find myself Not liking the corporatization of sports

1734
02:47:58,080 --> 02:48:05,680
Like it it kind of sucks that Macklin Celebrini doesn't play for the f***ing vancouver canucks given he's from here

1735
02:48:06,240 --> 02:48:12,880
He's like the most exciting player in hockey right now pretty freaking cool. Yeah, I don't think I would mind that. That'll be awesome

1736
02:48:17,520 --> 02:48:23,440
Um And like the fact that connor mcdavid doesn't play for the toronto maple Leafs is like

1737
02:48:24,560 --> 02:48:30,160
You know kind of ridiculous Uh, where where's where sid from he's from he's from uh, novus kosher. I think right

1738
02:48:30,240 --> 02:48:35,120
So the fact that the hartford whalers don't get to still exist and sid plays for them like come on, man

1739
02:48:35,680 --> 02:48:42,480
That was like, okay, so Yeah, this is very true with hockey where like americans will be like, oh, well, we beat you and it's like

1740
02:48:42,480 --> 02:48:47,360
Yeah, you do has a lot of canadiens on it, but then baseball in stella cup you look at the Toronto Raptors

1741
02:48:48,720 --> 02:48:53,360
It's like all the canadiens finally made it was like kind of where they're like two canadiens on a team or something

1742
02:48:53,360 --> 02:49:03,280
Yeah, it's kind of a lot of americans So so as much as I so as much as I don't love the corporatization of of sport where like the vancouver canucks is just a brand

1743
02:49:03,760 --> 02:49:08,160
It has no meaning like there was at one point. There was more swedes than canadiens on the team

1744
02:49:08,160 --> 02:49:16,800
Which I don't mind. I have nothing against swedes. I just Historically been a big thing for vancouver to have a like disproportionate amount of just like basically the canucks were team sweden at one point

1745
02:49:16,960 --> 02:49:20,160
Yeah, um, and and so I don't like that

1746
02:49:21,040 --> 02:49:24,000
But what that does a really good job of

1747
02:49:24,480 --> 02:49:30,240
Is like getting people excited about, you know, like their team

1748
02:49:30,640 --> 02:49:37,440
Whereas when it's like the national team If you don't happen to have a star player, especially in a more individual sport like badminton

1749
02:49:37,760 --> 02:49:44,240
There's like nothing kind of nothing to cheer for whereas if you just you know had the you know, the malaysia aces

1750
02:49:44,880 --> 02:49:51,680
and you know the The the the the canadian geese or you know, like you had you you did more branding around it

1751
02:49:52,160 --> 02:49:55,040
Then yeah, I think there's uh, and I think there's a chance

1752
02:49:55,520 --> 02:50:02,000
To to there's also a build long-term fandom. Yeah, like people will identify like they'll wear the hat

1753
02:50:02,480 --> 02:50:12,080
You know, like i'm a i'm a chargers fan You know, i'm a raptors guy sure nobody nobody very few people do that except like on the court

1754
02:50:12,400 --> 02:50:15,600
Like they'll they'll wear like, you know a jersey or whatever for their favorite player

1755
02:50:15,600 --> 02:50:19,040
But there's not that that team branding and it works

1756
02:50:19,680 --> 02:50:22,000
It works. I don't make the rules it works

1757
02:50:22,880 --> 02:50:29,520
This is an ignorance thing is most of the world as interested in sports at all as north america is oh, dude. Yeah

1758
02:50:30,560 --> 02:50:36,000
Like as a viewer as a fan dude like cricket in india, right crazy

1759
02:50:36,320 --> 02:50:43,040
Is that them having a massive population? It's just crazy. Okay, and like dude at soccer

1760
02:50:43,760 --> 02:50:50,560
Soccer or south america. Yes spectator hundred percent hundo pee the brits hundo pee. Yeah, so that's pretty huge

1761
02:50:50,720 --> 02:50:52,720
Yeah, huge

1762
02:50:54,160 --> 02:50:59,280
Oh, yeah, yeah agent renzo's japan loves baseball dude the way that japan just kind of was like

1763
02:50:59,920 --> 02:51:06,160
Oh this american thing. Nope. It's a japanese thing now by the way the greatest player on the face of the earth is japanese

1764
02:51:06,240 --> 02:51:12,960
He's an absolute god at absolutely everything like japan just exploded into the baseball scene

1765
02:51:12,960 --> 02:51:17,280
That's been that's been wild to watch over my lifetime. I just like whenever i'm traveling

1766
02:51:17,760 --> 02:51:22,720
Literally anywhere that i've gone i've never been to india, but anywhere that i've gone. Yeah, you don't see it

1767
02:51:23,600 --> 02:51:25,600
Hmm interesting. That's what i mean

1768
02:51:28,080 --> 02:51:35,680
Like if like in canada you go basically anywhere and you're gonna see somebody wearing something to do with some sports team

1769
02:51:36,480 --> 02:51:44,800
In america same deal. Would you necessarily recognize their sports attire? Not necessarily, but usually sports attire has kind of a vibe it does

1770
02:51:45,760 --> 02:51:51,280
A solid color big logo, but i wouldn't i wouldn't necessarily there are definitely i there i've

1771
02:51:52,800 --> 02:51:55,520
Guarantee you there are cricket teams i would have no idea. Yeah

1772
02:51:57,840 --> 02:52:02,640
Yeah, all right hit us Dan and sometimes some soccer jerseys just look like an advertisement. This is true

1773
02:52:05,600 --> 02:52:10,320
Hey dll loving the cables. Do we have any news on DisplayPort or HDMI?

1774
02:52:11,280 --> 02:52:18,400
The news is that we're working on development But realistically even if we got our golden samples and signed off and said go

1775
02:52:18,880 --> 02:52:24,320
There's no production capacity for them until we can somewhat catch up on usbc and usba

1776
02:52:26,160 --> 02:52:34,160
So we're working on it. We're gonna do it They're not gonna be the same so they're gonna be a little bit more rigid just because the conductors are so thick

1777
02:52:36,480 --> 02:52:42,320
So they're gonna have like a bit more like memory to them But they're still gonna have the same outer sheath so there's be super uv resistant

1778
02:52:42,720 --> 02:52:51,360
And they'll have that kind of that nice feel to them And obviously the signal quality will be a top priority, but they won't have quite the same flexibility

1779
02:52:51,360 --> 02:52:53,360
So that's something to watch out for

1780
02:52:54,480 --> 02:52:58,880
Hello dll steam frame height. Oh, I know if it ever comes out

1781
02:52:59,280 --> 02:53:05,280
Any opinion on the way valve has handled the release so far has luke tried the controller. I have not. Oh, yeah

1782
02:53:05,440 --> 02:53:09,440
You should you should borrow one just to try it out. It's it's different It's

1783
02:53:09,440 --> 02:53:14,720
Definitely better for people with big hands than for people with my size mitts when I saw the imagery of it

1784
02:53:14,720 --> 02:53:19,200
I thought that'd probably be true. She's a thick boy the big pads man. Yeah. Yeah

1785
02:53:19,840 --> 02:53:24,720
um As for how valves handled the release so far, I don't think valve had a choice

1786
02:53:25,360 --> 02:53:30,960
Obviously valve would have loved to have the steam controller and the steam machine and the steam frame come out at the same time

1787
02:53:31,040 --> 02:53:37,520
I'm like no question, but It's already in the warehouse for the controllers. You gotta start moving them. Yeah

1788
02:53:38,000 --> 02:53:41,520
Um, I I saw in your review that the thumb collision thing

1789
02:53:42,160 --> 02:53:47,360
I suspect I'll have an issue with that. Right. You don't love the symmetrical thumb sticks. Neither do I really hate it

1790
02:53:47,920 --> 02:53:49,920
Neither do I really hate it

1791
02:53:51,840 --> 02:53:55,120
Read bad man A yep dll

1792
02:53:55,120 --> 02:53:58,880
It's great to watch live from the uk from your limited experience with it

1793
02:53:58,880 --> 02:54:03,600
Would you say that the steam machine will be worth the wait or bite the bullet and upgrade my i7

1794
02:54:04,240 --> 02:54:10,880
7700k at today's prices There are some deals to be had on DRAM right now. I don't know how long they're gonna last

1795
02:54:11,040 --> 02:54:16,080
It's fun. It's funny looking at them be like, oh, it's whatever percentage off. It's like, yeah

1796
02:54:16,480 --> 02:54:19,440
Yeah, don't ignore that. Just look at the price

1797
02:54:20,480 --> 02:54:25,760
If you can snag a deal, I would snag the deal you can snag and I wouldn't wait much longer

1798
02:54:25,840 --> 02:54:29,920
I7 7700k is old enough that um

1799
02:54:29,920 --> 02:54:34,800
There are modern games that are going to benefit from a from a big upgrade for you

1800
02:54:35,440 --> 02:54:43,120
I would go for it Hi, Linus and team. Are you still running an lg tv OLED as your work monitor?

1801
02:54:43,520 --> 02:54:46,320
Any annoyances you've come across and how did you fix them?

1802
02:54:46,960 --> 02:54:51,200
um I'm not anymore the biggest annoyance

1803
02:54:51,360 --> 02:54:57,360
It has got to be the auto brightness control as you go from from windowed applications to full screen applications

1804
02:54:57,360 --> 02:55:00,800
There's not a ton that can really be done about that

1805
02:55:01,280 --> 02:55:06,400
The monitor that i'm using for work right now is the one that we did a sponsored LTT for

1806
02:55:07,280 --> 02:55:11,680
This thing is absolutely knucking futs

1807
02:55:11,680 --> 02:55:17,520
Whoa, it's 52 inches 6k and the way del markets it is as like a 4k

1808
02:55:18,400 --> 02:55:21,040
um, what's the size of the 4k they

1809
02:55:22,080 --> 02:55:25,200
They compare it to I don't remember but basically it's like

1810
02:55:26,160 --> 02:55:30,000
61 44 by 25 60 at 120 hertz this thing is

1811
02:55:31,200 --> 02:55:35,680
Wild so it's like having a 4k display and then like 210 80s flanking it

1812
02:55:36,160 --> 02:55:42,960
Um, and it's 52 inches across it's curved. It's got a built-in Thunderbolt hub. So I just roll up with my laptop

1813
02:55:43,840 --> 02:55:49,040
Plug in And all my peripherals are ready to rock my webcam my mic everything's good to go

1814
02:55:49,440 --> 02:55:55,360
It's IPS. So there's no tom foolery around like auto brightness and dimming and anything like that

1815
02:55:56,000 --> 02:55:59,840
It's like four thousand canadian dollars. So it's like three grand us

1816
02:56:00,000 --> 02:56:06,320
I was gonna say I think I'll keep my uh, my three monitors. It's the nicest monitor that I use but could never recommend

1817
02:56:06,400 --> 02:56:10,640
You know what i'm saying? Sure. Yeah. Yeah, I mean, that's fair enough and hopefully, you know that

1818
02:56:11,920 --> 02:56:16,000
You're seeing prices like of

1819
02:56:16,000 --> 02:56:19,760
Standard class monitors. I don't 1080 1440p monitors right now

1820
02:56:20,240 --> 02:56:24,800
Constantly coming down. Yeah stuff like that'll come down eventually and for the for the price. I would

1821
02:56:25,440 --> 02:56:27,920
solidly recommend the 42 inch tv instead

1822
02:56:28,640 --> 02:56:32,720
that's uh Even with the distractions and annoyances

1823
02:56:32,960 --> 02:56:37,840
I remember we did a video a while back on how you can get like a service remote for the lg and you there's more stuff

1824
02:56:37,840 --> 02:56:41,920
You can adjust. I don't know that that's true of the newer ones though. I think I was on like a c2 at the time

1825
02:56:42,560 --> 02:56:47,120
Yeah, I've got a c2 is my main monitor and 52 inches nice and they're pretty damn cheap

1826
02:56:48,400 --> 02:56:53,360
Uh, let's see what else is next. Hey, look, how are you liking tarkov 1.0?

1827
02:56:54,160 --> 02:56:56,640
Uh, I was having a pretty okay time with it

1828
02:56:57,280 --> 02:57:01,200
And then you sound so enthusiastic. We and then we Linux challenged

1829
02:57:01,200 --> 02:57:05,360
I do want to escape from tarkov. I want to like complete the game which is possible now

1830
02:57:05,840 --> 02:57:09,200
Okay, hit me up. Hit me up. I'll join. Yeah, I'll I'll be your boat anchor

1831
02:57:09,920 --> 02:57:14,800
You think I'll have fun Um, we'll see how that goes, especially because like I was playing

1832
02:57:15,520 --> 02:57:18,160
decently close to launch and doing okay

1833
02:57:18,720 --> 02:57:25,440
But if I jumped in now, everyone's gonna have like crazy gear So it might make sense for me to wait for a wipe again and then try to beat it then but

1834
02:57:26,960 --> 02:57:34,480
We'll see Hello dll from the netherlands question one. My company is looking to give none techie users

1835
02:57:34,960 --> 02:57:37,680
Uh to vibe code in house apps

1836
02:57:38,480 --> 02:57:42,880
Users think will help them With their work. What's your thoughts?

1837
02:57:43,440 --> 02:57:49,040
Um, also when's the LTT vibe code video coming out? I talked about that earlier. Oh, you did. Okay. So yeah, it's it's dead

1838
02:57:49,200 --> 02:57:53,840
It'll maybe be a Floatplane exclusive with like sort of roughly cut together

1839
02:57:53,920 --> 02:57:58,480
But it's just it's been so long since I did the challenge that it just doesn't seem that relevant today

1840
02:57:59,520 --> 02:58:04,720
um So i'm gonna hear your question and take in a slightly different angle, but

1841
02:58:05,600 --> 02:58:11,520
An interesting application for vibe coding that i've thought of recently that i've kind of pitched to somebody internally who was

1842
02:58:12,560 --> 02:58:16,400
Trying to vibe code their own thing, but something that would be pretty sketchy to vibe code

1843
02:58:16,560 --> 02:58:20,480
um Was how about you try to vibe code it on your own?

1844
02:58:21,360 --> 02:58:25,360
and use that as the request

1845
02:58:25,360 --> 02:58:34,480
Yeah, so like Make this but not crap. Yeah, basically because one of the most difficult parts is actually getting out of someone's brain

1846
02:58:34,960 --> 02:58:38,080
What they actually want and you'd think that wouldn't

1847
02:58:38,880 --> 02:58:43,200
Be that hard, but it's really really difficult sometimes

1848
02:58:43,360 --> 02:58:46,880
That was what I expected to be the conclusion of the vibe coding challenge

1849
02:58:47,200 --> 02:58:54,080
Yeah Was that the best use of it for someone like me was to make a proof of concept that I could then hand to a developer and go

1850
02:58:54,080 --> 02:58:58,320
This is what I needed to do now It does everything I needed to do make it not suck and i'm not gonna lie

1851
02:58:58,560 --> 02:59:03,280
If you handed your version to Dan and he got to start with that instead of your notes

1852
02:59:03,840 --> 02:59:06,480
I bet you would have done a better job and your notes weren't even like that bad

1853
02:59:06,880 --> 02:59:11,120
Like compared to most people pitching things your notes were pretty good. Some people will

1854
02:59:11,760 --> 02:59:16,640
Give you just nothing and it's like I tried to put a lot of thought into it

1855
02:59:17,040 --> 02:59:20,160
Like I what I tried to do was I tried to provide Dan

1856
02:59:20,640 --> 02:59:24,320
With the same prompting. Yeah that I would give to an llm. Yeah

1857
02:59:24,880 --> 02:59:31,440
because if You know if the llm can't do it then he can't do it for sure or like if he can't do it then the llm can't do it

1858
02:59:31,440 --> 02:59:35,040
That's that's what I was going for so he would have to have all the information

1859
02:59:35,040 --> 02:59:39,840
So I tried to actually try like tried to be extra super serial like thorough. Yeah

1860
02:59:40,880 --> 02:59:49,280
um So like I I think that can be kind of neat like let this person brainstorm with themselves effectively and come up with like a

1861
02:59:49,680 --> 02:59:52,480
Yeah, I mean this thing doesn't necessarily work or maybe it's like a

1862
02:59:53,120 --> 02:59:55,840
Just absolute nightmare for security reasons or whatever else

1863
02:59:56,480 --> 03:00:00,080
But this is kind of what I wanted to do you can poke around and see the intention

1864
03:00:00,720 --> 03:00:03,680
And then take that and actually make a thing out of it sounds pretty cool

1865
03:00:04,080 --> 03:00:10,800
Um a company really encouraging their employees to do that. I mean, yeah, sounds like security problems depending on what your

1866
03:00:11,280 --> 03:00:13,280
company works on

1867
03:00:15,520 --> 03:00:19,680
I've also seen people do some really cool stuff with vibe coding. I I'm pretty sure

1868
03:00:20,960 --> 03:00:24,480
What's his name? Hank green? Uh, Hank green youtube

1869
03:00:25,360 --> 03:00:29,840
Let's go to his channel He has a video

1870
03:00:29,840 --> 03:00:36,880
The Artemis photos you didn't see yet And then in here he vibe coded a website called Artemis timeline

1871
03:00:37,520 --> 03:00:42,160
And you can go through and see the the photos that were taken

1872
03:00:42,720 --> 03:00:49,120
And the like time of day and which camera took it and what they were supposed to be doing at the time

1873
03:00:49,760 --> 03:00:52,320
And all that kind of stuff and he

1874
03:00:53,200 --> 03:00:58,640
Put this together with some vibe coding and it didn't perfectly work and he had to step in and

1875
03:00:59,360 --> 03:01:02,800
Make some changes to it and improve things and fix data and whatnot

1876
03:01:02,880 --> 03:01:06,320
But like he got part of the way there with vibe coding

1877
03:01:06,720 --> 03:01:09,920
And if it if you're not Hank green and you can't take it the rest of the way there

1878
03:01:10,480 --> 03:01:13,520
Um, maybe within your company you can hand it off to somebody who can yeah

1879
03:01:14,400 --> 03:01:19,760
It's funny you bring up like creators using vibe coding. I was at creator summit recently and I spoke to at least one

1880
03:01:20,720 --> 03:01:27,360
I'll just put it that way creator who uses vibe coding very regularly in their projects and just doesn't disclose it

1881
03:01:27,680 --> 03:01:31,440
Yeah, because they just don't feel like dealing with the hate because at the end of the day

1882
03:01:31,680 --> 03:01:37,280
All the viewers care about is like the end result of the product. They're never gonna audit the code

1883
03:01:37,280 --> 03:01:42,080
It doesn't matter because they're never going to ship it to anyone and they just love it

1884
03:01:42,560 --> 03:01:46,000
I know multiple creators personally that that use it and don't disclose it

1885
03:01:48,960 --> 03:01:54,320
But they're also not like shipping. Yeah, these are tools for themselves. Yeah, yeah

1886
03:01:54,720 --> 03:01:58,240
Like and and hank green did but he disclosed it

1887
03:01:58,960 --> 03:02:04,080
I think like multiple times in one video like he wasn't uh, that's a hank green thing to do. Yeah

1888
03:02:05,200 --> 03:02:09,760
Sure is And it's a cool site. Oh, sorry. Sorry. Cool. What's up boys? Luke?

1889
03:02:09,760 --> 03:02:13,040
What specific charity use at home when sitting at your computer and gaming?

1890
03:02:14,320 --> 03:02:18,640
Uh I

1891
03:02:20,160 --> 03:02:27,040
Had the name on my head earlier and I don't remember Uh, let me see one second. I took that from you. I can I can find it pretty easily

1892
03:02:28,080 --> 03:02:32,720
Do do do Computer oh my god

1893
03:02:38,160 --> 03:02:40,400
The Marcus the Ikea Marcus

1894
03:02:42,800 --> 03:02:47,520
That's it nice solid It's cheap. It's not that good

1895
03:02:50,240 --> 03:02:56,320
Nice Hello, legendary lords of devices. This question mostly goes to luke. Wow three in a row

1896
03:02:56,640 --> 03:03:01,920
But Linus is free to answer as well. I've heard you mentioned playing balder's gate three before

1897
03:03:02,000 --> 03:03:04,160
What's your favorite class to play? Oh, dude

1898
03:03:05,360 --> 03:03:08,960
I don't think Linus is gonna have one of these. I don't think you've played it. I always play mage chicks

1899
03:03:10,160 --> 03:03:14,000
Okay Mage chicks I think are world of warcraft or dragon

1900
03:03:14,720 --> 03:03:18,160
Dragon age or like whatever. I'm just I'm just I go straight for the mage chick

1901
03:03:18,320 --> 03:03:22,880
I personally think those are cooler in divinity because the the interaction of all the spells with each other

1902
03:03:22,960 --> 03:03:25,440
We don't do that kind of stuff. Um fighter

1903
03:03:27,120 --> 03:03:31,600
Classic So second balder's gate. They're crazy, dude

1904
03:03:32,480 --> 03:03:37,360
They're nuts attacking like six times in one turn is just crazy

1905
03:03:38,480 --> 03:03:42,640
Jumping all over the place. Yeah They're nuts

1906
03:03:42,640 --> 03:03:47,600
I like one of the designers for balder's gate must have looked at d&d and been like fighters are boring

1907
03:03:47,600 --> 03:03:49,600
What if we just gave them crack?

1908
03:03:50,720 --> 03:03:53,120
Just like what happens worked for the germans

1909
03:03:53,840 --> 03:03:58,720
basically Yeah, um, so I don't know those are fun. Um

1910
03:03:59,680 --> 03:04:04,480
I like tons of stuff that I've played. I've played a bunch of different classes, but yeah, just just

1911
03:04:05,280 --> 03:04:09,200
Senate just full sending laser down fighter is is sick

1912
03:04:10,000 --> 03:04:16,960
All right DLL if LTT could pivot to a completely channel unrelated topic for one week. What would you cover?

1913
03:04:17,440 --> 03:04:23,440
Also, thanks for the new shipping perk. I upgraded to Floatplane plus because I did the math and I would actually save money

1914
03:04:24,640 --> 03:04:32,480
Uh, yeah, if you order a fair bit from LTT Store, it's uh, it's kind of a no-brainer. Um, the Floatplane perk includes, um

1915
03:04:33,200 --> 03:04:37,120
Always free shipping. I have clarified with the team that is apparently forever

1916
03:04:37,760 --> 03:04:41,280
So free shipping over a threshold, but during shipstorm the threshold is even lower

1917
03:04:43,040 --> 03:04:47,040
Oh, okay. Yeah, okay um

1918
03:04:47,680 --> 03:04:53,520
It would probably be okay. This is gonna sound crazy, but I think it would be like going to garage sales

1919
03:04:54,720 --> 03:04:57,440
If it was just for a week just like a throwaway thing

1920
03:04:58,000 --> 03:05:03,600
I would I would probably I would I would probably like thrift or like go to garage this I love hunting for deals

1921
03:05:03,600 --> 03:05:08,080
Garage yard wars and it'd be kind of fun to like not have to bother with computer deals for a change

1922
03:05:09,840 --> 03:05:15,840
I'd like I think that would be a blast Linus and Luke just go to garage sales. I would watch I would watch the crap out of that

1923
03:05:17,040 --> 03:05:24,880
I was thinking I don't feel like this is My personal vote which I think everyone's going to get pissed about but my personal vote is that we maybe don't even do a

1924
03:05:24,880 --> 03:05:28,560
Scrapyard Wars this year. Oh, we're not doing money. Yeah, okay. Everything's just kind of a mess

1925
03:05:28,880 --> 03:05:33,360
But I was thinking next time we bring it back. I think you and I should be teamed up

1926
03:05:34,320 --> 03:05:37,600
Oh, I don't know you just want a trophy. Maybe

1927
03:05:42,080 --> 03:05:49,360
I don't know what the challenge is. I don't know why it makes sense But I think it would be fun. It's just gonna be two adults beating up toddlers at that point

1928
03:05:49,760 --> 03:05:54,400
No, we've done it before. Yeah, we we lost ones when we were teamed up. I think really nope

1929
03:05:54,800 --> 03:05:58,240
Did we not we did and then figured out that they cheated. Oh, that's right. I remember that. Yeah

1930
03:05:58,720 --> 03:06:04,320
But they did they did super well, and I think they only really cheated because their part like died, which was

1931
03:06:05,120 --> 03:06:07,120
unfortunate, but we still win

1932
03:06:08,480 --> 03:06:15,440
Hello Linus Luke and Dan what has been the biggest tech interruption caused by pets once I had our dog rip a DSL cable

1933
03:06:15,440 --> 03:06:22,880
Which took down internet and television for a few hours And I was a kid. We had a pet rabbit and they chewed through all of the cables behind the TV

1934
03:06:23,600 --> 03:06:28,800
Nice and then my brother and I didn't think quite as highly of the rabbit

1935
03:06:31,040 --> 03:06:35,760
Yeah, I can imagine you two not being into that Not a pet, but I had rats

1936
03:06:36,960 --> 03:06:40,400
Destroy both our minivan and Yvonne's SUV recently

1937
03:06:41,120 --> 03:06:47,200
Making nests in them and chewing through wires They both had they both had to go in for work over the last like few months

1938
03:06:47,520 --> 03:06:52,720
Yikes pretty not impressed by that. So I have to like I have to like rodent proof my garage now

1939
03:06:52,720 --> 03:06:55,280
Which is just you know the kind of thing I love doing on a weekend

1940
03:06:57,200 --> 03:07:02,000
I had that problem ages ago that in an effort to be green they made the wires out of cellulose

1941
03:07:03,600 --> 03:07:10,240
Let's just make wait really yeah, it was some derivative or something Let's just make all the wires in the car out of rat food a great choice

1942
03:07:10,960 --> 03:07:18,160
okay as much as As much as it's like a champagne problem. I was talking to my uncle about

1943
03:07:19,040 --> 03:07:24,880
sort of green initiatives in manufacturing and how they sometimes have unintended consequences

1944
03:07:25,600 --> 03:07:32,800
And he was saying that in some ways an older airframe is actually more desirable than a newer one

1945
03:07:33,360 --> 03:07:39,840
And the reason is that the EPA mandates the use of more ecologically friendly primers

1946
03:07:40,560 --> 03:07:45,760
On the frames now that just crack and fail after

1947
03:07:46,560 --> 03:07:51,440
Not that many years compared to the old ones like crazy expensive because I don't know it flies

1948
03:07:52,160 --> 03:07:55,920
And so the one from 1990 he was telling me it's actually

1949
03:07:56,720 --> 03:08:01,040
more economical to carefully remove only the paint

1950
03:08:02,000 --> 03:08:07,040
And then just touch up the primer With the because you can't use the old stuff anymore

1951
03:08:07,200 --> 03:08:10,880
So you just like touch up the spots where you like accidentally went through it

1952
03:08:11,920 --> 03:08:17,520
Then it is to like strip it and reprim it because of how often you'll have to completely strip it and reprim it now

1953
03:08:18,000 --> 03:08:23,280
and everyone knows this and just Keeps doing it and it sort of raises the question

1954
03:08:24,160 --> 03:08:32,240
How much eco-friendly paint? Do you need to use before it would have been better to just paint it once with the not eco-friendly paint?

1955
03:08:32,240 --> 03:08:38,000
And I I don't know the answer to that. I also wonder what about it is not eco-friendly and and how not eco-friendly it is

1956
03:08:38,000 --> 03:08:41,040
Because it could be that that original primer is just like really brutal

1957
03:08:41,040 --> 03:08:49,600
It could be as bad as painting it six times Right, but unless we unless we know for sure that math which maybe someone has done but I just

1958
03:08:50,480 --> 03:08:54,800
I just doubt it like how many times do they have to manufacture the cable harness and mine and Dan's car

1959
03:08:55,280 --> 03:08:59,520
Before it would have been better to just use the less eco-friendly cable harness. Yeah, what if it's rat food?

1960
03:08:59,600 --> 03:09:05,440
You know what I mean? I mean the potential the manufacturing of the product could also be super super brutal

1961
03:09:06,000 --> 03:09:09,280
Like maybe not so much for for wire, you know installation, but

1962
03:09:11,840 --> 03:09:21,200
Sometimes these have unintended consequences bro. Mm-hmm a bro. What I just got some good news. What I just got a tracking number

1963
03:09:24,800 --> 03:09:28,320
Uh-oh no or here here. I'll bring I'll bring it up here. I'll bring it up here

1964
03:09:30,480 --> 03:09:34,240
I told these guys at CES. I guess it was

1965
03:09:36,400 --> 03:09:38,400
Did we even make a video?

1966
03:09:39,760 --> 03:09:41,760
Caddo s stop tracking people

1967
03:09:42,880 --> 03:09:47,200
Uh Uh

1968
03:09:49,760 --> 03:09:56,400
I don't think I made a video Did I do a short bro? What are you talking about? You gotta tell me what you're talking about. Okay, okay

1969
03:09:56,640 --> 03:10:02,960
Okay, do you remember four systems the guys who did that like air jet thing? Yeah, okay at CES

1970
03:10:05,520 --> 03:10:09,040
They showed off something called liquid jet

1971
03:10:10,080 --> 03:10:16,400
so Traditional cold plates, right like water blocks are made by taking a plate of copper

1972
03:10:16,880 --> 03:10:21,840
And then you either you like mill a design in it. So, you know like little pins or whatever

1973
03:10:22,800 --> 03:10:26,880
Or or like a lot of modern ones use what's called skived copper

1974
03:10:27,120 --> 03:10:30,560
Where you take a blade and so you take that flat piece of copper and you like

1975
03:10:31,360 --> 03:10:37,120
Shave a sliver of copper and then like fold it up and then make another fin and make another video of making heat

1976
03:10:37,840 --> 03:10:41,360
Skive copper so cool. Anyway That's a traditional way

1977
03:10:41,360 --> 03:10:49,120
Your geometries are pretty limited because it's subtractive or like like using the malleability of the copper to reshape it

1978
03:10:49,120 --> 03:10:54,160
So Roar is using more like

1979
03:10:54,640 --> 03:10:57,920
um More like uh, like like silicon

1980
03:10:58,880 --> 03:11:02,400
Manufacturing so they're using like metal deposition

1981
03:11:03,200 --> 03:11:05,520
Like you would like you would make microchips

1982
03:11:06,240 --> 03:11:09,360
so By using copper deposition

1983
03:11:09,920 --> 03:11:12,240
They can make geometries that are like

1984
03:11:14,080 --> 03:11:20,240
Like out of this world More firmly efficient than even skived copper

1985
03:11:20,880 --> 03:11:24,800
Um, this is not a good that's not what i'm getting. That's not what i'm getting

1986
03:11:25,120 --> 03:11:30,960
I'm getting just oh no, no, you can keep that up though. I'm getting just the like cooling engines at the top right

1987
03:11:30,960 --> 03:11:37,280
I'm getting two So we're gonna try putting one on a gaming GPU cool and just like

1988
03:11:37,920 --> 03:11:43,680
Seeing how fast she go this this stuff's so cool. So I was I've been working on this since january

1989
03:11:44,320 --> 03:11:49,440
um And I was like, yeah, I don't see the point of me making. Yeah, I remember now

1990
03:11:49,440 --> 03:11:53,440
I was like, I don't see the point of me making a video about like here's a demo on a GPU

1991
03:11:53,440 --> 03:11:57,440
No one will ever own but i'm really excited about this and I really want to work with you guys

1992
03:11:57,840 --> 03:12:04,080
But I want one and it's taken until now to kind of give them all the reassurances that like

1993
03:12:04,800 --> 03:12:10,160
you know We're not going to judge them based on that the you know the the vrms are going to be hotter

1994
03:12:10,480 --> 03:12:15,440
Because it's not a full coverage solution and just like no no no guys is yeah. Yeah. Yeah, we're good. We're good. We're good

1995
03:12:16,720 --> 03:12:21,120
I'm dude. I'm stoked. I'm so stoked to check it out. Yeah, nice. That's sweet

1996
03:12:22,000 --> 03:12:26,480
Yeah, howdy from texas mechanical slash manufacturing engineer here

1997
03:12:26,800 --> 03:12:34,160
What manufacturing methods do y'all use in the production of your products or any product in general that still fascinates you today?

1998
03:12:36,560 --> 03:12:40,640
Injection molding I was going to say it's all kind of fascinating casting

1999
03:12:41,440 --> 03:12:44,400
um three little printing

2000
03:12:44,480 --> 03:12:48,080
uh I mean lots of different things laser engraving

2001
03:12:50,640 --> 03:12:55,520
Um, I mean we have a lot of like small scale stuff in house, but realistically, you know, we're

2002
03:12:56,160 --> 03:13:03,440
We're we're using industrial scale manufacturers for for a lot of the stuff that makes it to LTT Store

2003
03:13:03,520 --> 03:13:10,400
Otherwise, we wouldn't be able to produce in any meaningful volume. So I i'm very fascinated by manufacturing technology

2004
03:13:10,960 --> 03:13:19,600
but Unless you asked me a specific product, then I I wouldn't really be able to I wouldn't really be able to narrow it down too much

2005
03:13:19,680 --> 03:13:21,680
I'm afraid

2006
03:13:24,400 --> 03:13:33,040
Sorry Linus and luke about to quit my job to be an executive at a startup post huge step mall business focused on home services

2007
03:13:33,600 --> 03:13:39,840
After seeing many businesses rise and fall. What are the biggest indicators of success tips culture?

2008
03:13:40,800 --> 03:13:43,440
You have to have a culture that's hungry and wants to win

2009
03:13:44,320 --> 03:13:51,520
At times we've had a very hungry winning oriented culture and at times we've had a very complacent

2010
03:13:52,240 --> 03:14:00,480
um, collect a paycheck culture and and at times we've had mixed and at times we've had a mix that has been at various

2011
03:14:01,600 --> 03:14:09,760
levels of health And I would say that if there's anything that I could tell you to focus on it's have a culture that is laser focused on

2012
03:14:10,080 --> 03:14:14,320
Just winning and being hungry and and six failure is not an option

2013
03:14:18,000 --> 03:14:27,040
Hey lip-lap dap You mentioned a while ago that you were going to hold a smash tournament as a middle finger to nintendo's crazy guidelines

2014
03:14:27,360 --> 03:14:33,760
Any updates to that for the future of whale land? We got yelled at of the el coin by our own people

2015
03:14:34,000 --> 03:14:40,240
Yeah, we basically I'm not going to tell you my wife said no

2016
03:14:42,160 --> 03:14:44,160
But my wife said no

2017
03:14:45,520 --> 03:14:49,840
And she was right she usually is sometimes she's not

2018
03:14:51,520 --> 03:14:57,440
Hypothetically I I imagine sometimes she's not but usually she's usually she's right

2019
03:14:58,240 --> 03:15:01,280
Sometimes she can be very very conservative

2020
03:15:02,000 --> 03:15:08,080
Um in terms of like like cya, you know covering our butts, but that has you know

2021
03:15:09,040 --> 03:15:12,240
And and there are times when it's very annoying to navigate that

2022
03:15:12,320 --> 03:15:15,360
But then we'll get audited and we like pass our audits

2023
03:15:16,000 --> 03:15:20,880
And I'm like Right good Good job, you know

2024
03:15:23,520 --> 03:15:28,800
Do you have any recommendations on what I should use on my px 13 for the memory modules?

2025
03:15:28,960 --> 03:15:31,120
I plan on repasting my

2026
03:15:32,160 --> 03:15:37,120
CPU to get the to get rid of the liquid metal before I kill my unit

2027
03:15:37,440 --> 03:15:41,120
I plan to use btm 7 950 for processing

2028
03:15:41,840 --> 03:15:49,360
Oh It's less a matter of what you should use and it's more a matter of what thickness you should use

2029
03:15:49,600 --> 03:15:56,160
Uh, you may want to try checking with ASUS. They may be willing to tell you if they're not willing to tell you

2030
03:15:56,640 --> 03:16:02,320
Then uh, man Your best bet might be to just take it off and measure the thickness of those thermal pads

2031
03:16:02,320 --> 03:16:05,760
And then make sure that you're not putting in something that is thinner or thicker than what's already in there

2032
03:16:06,480 --> 03:16:13,200
Or you could just keep using the thermal pads that are in there I mean realistically are those going to be a real problem for you? Is your memory overheating?

2033
03:16:15,520 --> 03:16:18,480
There's no liquid metal on the memory so I if I if it was me

2034
03:16:19,120 --> 03:16:24,720
The convenient way would be to just reuse my thermal pads there. That's going to be that's going to be my my low friction

2035
03:16:25,680 --> 03:16:32,480
recommendation What's your opinion on the online belief that the steam machine will include a controller on launch?

2036
03:16:32,640 --> 03:16:37,520
I'm interested, but the price worries me. Also. What's the status on the physical Linus corn shipping?

2037
03:16:38,080 --> 03:16:43,600
Uh status on the physical coins is they are in manufacturing and if you check your order confirmation

2038
03:16:43,600 --> 03:16:46,080
It should tell you like when they're expected to be

2039
03:16:46,800 --> 03:16:52,720
being minted Um as for the steam machine including a controller from my understanding it should include a controller

2040
03:16:52,720 --> 03:16:58,320
That was what valve pretty sure told me when I went down there for the announcement or the unveiling

2041
03:16:58,800 --> 03:17:03,600
Um if if something changed due to the way the market is right now

2042
03:17:03,680 --> 03:17:07,760
I wouldn't actually like hold valve to the coals over it

2043
03:17:08,320 --> 03:17:13,200
Like it's a tough situation that they're in. Um, but for my understanding that is the intent

2044
03:17:16,880 --> 03:17:25,040
Hello from toronto I just finished see stars and i'm looking for my next fix got any recommendations for more retro vibe fun times

2045
03:17:25,280 --> 03:17:28,160
Already finished crosscode from your WAN Show recommendation

2046
03:17:29,360 --> 03:17:31,360
ooh

2047
03:17:33,680 --> 03:17:38,000
Is it retro or is it jrpg because you could you recommend exposition 33?

2048
03:17:38,640 --> 03:17:41,600
Oh exposition 33 is so good. Not retro looking

2049
03:17:42,400 --> 03:17:51,920
but jrpg Not technically it's not retro vibe fun time french rpg. Oh, they want a retro vibe fun time

2050
03:17:52,560 --> 03:17:58,160
Uh chain chain decos chain decos is another one. I played and really enjoyed the story gets a little sort of weird

2051
03:17:58,240 --> 03:18:01,760
But that's kind of typical of the genre. Um toward the end

2052
03:18:06,800 --> 03:18:13,360
Chain decos was my answer Dan. Oh, there you go. Sorry and last one I got for you today is hey

2053
03:18:13,600 --> 03:18:18,480

2059
03:18:46,000 --> 03:18:49,200
We might have to figure out the collab feature. I don't know apparently that isn't a thing

2060
03:18:49,600 --> 03:18:52,800
Maybe but you could collab launch the vaude

2061
03:18:53,920 --> 03:18:58,320
Okay, I don't know See you later
