do that again it's 00:08:23.780 --> 00:08:32.780 weird isn't it yeah it's bad yucky it's not good if you rotate the thing the 00:08:32.780 --> 00:08:39.500 promise there's nothing left to rotate turning him upside down would just be 00:08:39.500 --> 00:08:47.060 weird so this mic upside down please don't yeah no I think we're good rotate 00:08:47.060 --> 00:08:57.060 his desktop I don't know man he wouldn't even know there is no headrest that's 00:08:57.060 --> 00:09:00.260 why I said there's nothing to flip oh you can't even see right now okay well 00:09:00.260 --> 00:09:04.500 there is no headrest they don't need to it's there's just no headrest my chair 00:09:04.500 --> 00:09:08.620 also has no headrest there you can see you can see this isn't moveable this is 00:09:08.620 --> 00:09:13.100 just the chair I don't know where the headrest even went I think they're new 00:09:13.100 --> 00:09:26.380 chairs a what really really maybe I don't know maybe they are 00:09:30.660 --> 00:09:34.580 the calf at the bottom put us down the problem is like none of this stuff is 00:09:34.580 --> 00:09:40.740 gonna bother him he's not here I can't affect he's an immunity bubble of not 00:09:40.780 --> 00:09:52.620 being on the set cheating man everyone's talking about flipping stuff and then 00:09:52.620 --> 00:09:58.260 Rooker said getting a female attention is probably a good thing and just the 00:09:58.260 --> 00:10:08.020 middle of nowhere and I have no idea what context that's supposed to be yes 00:10:08.020 --> 00:10:17.940 they are new chairs thank you Sean okay cool yeah there's nothing to flip I 00:10:17.940 --> 00:10:22.220 keep telling them there's nothing to flip they want me to flip something there's 00:10:22.220 --> 00:10:27.660 no headrest and you're also not here I can't like flip something where you are 00:10:27.660 --> 00:10:48.380 that doesn't work flip the bird all right settle down flip Linus yeah but then 00:10:48.380 --> 00:10:55.260 like if I flip this over it just looks stupid for the whole show yeah that's I 00:10:55.300 --> 00:11:00.700 think that's like feeding into what he wants yeah you guys don't understand it 00:11:00.700 --> 00:11:05.020 really is the original thing was that he flipped it over and then I would turn it 00:11:05.020 --> 00:11:09.660 the correct way now everything's the correct way and you guys are asking me 00:11:09.660 --> 00:11:13.820 to flip it over which is what he wants this is my whole point there's no three 00:11:13.820 --> 00:11:23.740 for me in the current state of the set and him not be there you go that's like 00:11:23.740 --> 00:11:35.380 the one thing we can do I'll fight you try to host the show that way would be 00:11:35.380 --> 00:11:51.180 insane those glorious though does this one

everyone welcome to the WAN Show we got a great 00:14:41.820 --> 00:14:49.940 show for you guys this week of course the big news is discord requiring facial 00:14:49.940 --> 00:14:57.460 scans for age verification oh man you can you can tell how passionate the 00:14:57.460 --> 00:15:06.820 writing team is about a particular topic when you see Jordan is like I am 00:15:06.820 --> 00:15:12.580 going to very thoroughly talk about why this is very upsetting yeah yeah we're 00:15:12.580 --> 00:15:18.220 gonna be getting into that also oh man we had we had we had the other huge 00:15:18.220 --> 00:15:30.300 privacy nightmare did did anyone watch rings a Superbowl ad cuz I did yeah okay 00:15:30.300 --> 00:15:34.700 what else we got Luke get find me some good news you got the good news right 00:15:34.700 --> 00:15:41.780 modern standby won't train your pattern anymore maybe maybe possibly and yes 00:15:41.780 --> 00:15:47.140 slaps is already mobilizing to try to look into it because part of the 00:15:47.140 --> 00:15:50.980 question here is has anyone else verified this so we're gonna try it's 00:15:50.980 --> 00:15:59.100 it's gonna be difficult to conclusively verify but we're gonna try also let's see 00:15:59.100 --> 00:16:05.260 I have a machine that definitely is very often on in my backpack so it's it's a 00:16:05.260 --> 00:16:09.820 it's a chronic offender so maybe we could maybe we could work together in other 00:16:09.860 --> 00:16:20.020 great news mr. Beast just bought a banking app you picked that yeah what 00:16:20.020 --> 00:16:24.780 could go wrong just roll the intro 00:16:39.820 --> 00:16:49.620 the show is brought to you today by Razor Squarespace zero bounce and UPDF 00:16:49.620 --> 00:16:53.620 along with our rap partner dbrand our laptop partner Razor and our chair 00:16:53.620 --> 00:16:58.380 partner Razor good lord it's gonna be called the Razor show at some point 00:16:58.380 --> 00:17:03.820 with all the sponsorship money that Razor's throwing at the WAN Show I it's 00:17:03.820 --> 00:17:10.060 it's I mean thanks Razor first of all but also it's a little confusing because 00:17:10.060 --> 00:17:16.540 I think they went 10 years without doing anything with so okay they're they're 00:17:16.540 --> 00:17:21.140 back they're back hard all right why don't we why don't we jump right into our 00:17:21.140 --> 00:17:27.140 first topic today which is of course the big news from discord discord announced 00:17:27.140 --> 00:17:32.820 that it will start rolling out age verification globally beginning in March 00:17:33.140 --> 00:17:38.540 just five months after a breach from a third-party age verification vendor 00:17:38.540 --> 00:17:47.220 exposed the government IDs of around 70,000 discord users I don't think the 00:17:47.220 --> 00:17:55.580 timing for this could be a lot worse well no actually it could have been worse 00:17:55.580 --> 00:17:59.020 it could have been just four months after a breach but I think you understand 00:17:59.020 --> 00:18:05.300 what I mean the platform is going to automatically configure all user accounts 00:18:05.300 --> 00:18:11.420 for what they're calling a teen appropriate experience unless those users 00:18:11.420 --> 00:18:18.780 are proven to be adults now it is worth noting that apparently not everyone is 00:18:18.780 --> 00:18:26.700 going to have to submit proof of being an adult but the way that they get you 00:18:26.700 --> 00:18:31.900 know non-user submitted proof of your adulthood is not going to make you a lot 00:18:31.900 --> 00:18:38.620 happier than submitting the proof all right yeah first let's talk about what 00:18:38.620 --> 00:18:44.300 happens with users that are not verified adults they will not be able to 00:18:44.300 --> 00:18:48.780 access age-restricted servers or channels they won't be able to speak on 00:18:48.780 --> 00:18:54.700 stage channels they will see content filters for anything discord decides is 00:18:54.700 --> 00:18:59.460 graphic or sensitive they will see warnings about friend requests from 00:18:59.460 --> 00:19:06.460 users they might not know I mean honestly that's fine and will have dm's 00:19:06.460 --> 00:19:11.580 from unfamiliar users go into a separate inbox frankly those last two should 00:19:11.580 --> 00:19:17.700 just be platform-wide I'll die on that hill dm's from friends and interactions 00:19:17.700 --> 00:19:23.180 on non-age restricted servers will operate as they always have users with 00:19:23.180 --> 00:19:26.820 pre-existing subscriptions to restricted servers we'll have those oh this is 00:19:26.820 --> 00:19:31.820 wild we'll have those servers content obfuscated until they pass age 00:19:31.820 --> 00:19:41.020 verification checks the craziest part of this Luke and I feel like okay part of 00:19:41.020 --> 00:19:44.540 me wanted to wait until the end of you going through the information before 00:19:44.540 --> 00:19:48.620 talking about this but I feel like I just have to jump in right now the craziest 00:19:48.620 --> 00:19:54.980 part of this is they didn't have to do this there were some jurisdictions that 00:19:54.980 --> 00:19:59.060 are pushing for stronger child safety measures that are that are putting 00:19:59.060 --> 00:20:03.740 pressure on on social media platforms including discord to put these kinds of 00:20:03.740 --> 00:20:10.460 checks in place but then they didn't have to roll it out globally and we've 00:20:10.460 --> 00:20:16.020 seen this before sometimes it's a huge benefit to a user base you 00:20:16.100 --> 00:20:20.540 know when Apple gets a bunch of pressure from the EU to use USB type-c guess 00:20:20.540 --> 00:20:25.180 what we get USB-C iPhones everywhere so sometimes this works out really great 00:20:25.180 --> 00:20:30.980 but this is software so there was no real reason other than maintaining two 00:20:30.980 --> 00:20:34.460 forks I guess that they had to do this like do you have any thoughts on this 00:20:34.460 --> 00:20:40.420 as someone who you know has led a couple of software teams now currently yeah I 00:20:40.420 --> 00:20:45.740 mean I wouldn't want to touch this at all ever and like they talk about how 00:20:45.980 --> 00:20:49.940 they I think this is maybe in the notes somewhere again we haven't gone through 00:20:49.940 --> 00:20:54.580 all but yet but they talk about how they're gonna delete it immediately but 00:20:54.580 --> 00:20:57.820 then they also talk about we'll get into that I just mean like why would they 00:20:57.820 --> 00:21:01.420 maintain the two forks can you give me a reason why they would roll this out 00:21:01.420 --> 00:21:05.460 globally when a lot of the world is not putting any pressure on them to do this 00:21:05.460 --> 00:21:13.580 I think the two forks can be really annoying and I think they might see the 00:21:13.900 --> 00:21:16.940 wall a little bit that a lot of different countries are moving in this direction 00:21:16.940 --> 00:21:22.340 I mean that's fair that's that's fair the momentum is really building I can't 00:21:22.340 --> 00:21:26.980 believe how quickly we went from everyone kind of agrees that 00:21:26.980 --> 00:21:32.500 social just BS anyways oh no I was going somewhere else like social social 00:21:32.500 --> 00:21:37.780 media is like really bad for kids oh yeah and then like sometimes legislation 00:21:37.780 --> 00:21:42.180 can seem to move pretty quickly like there are there are you know minor phones 00:21:42.380 --> 00:21:47.180 right now it's moving pretty fast move pretty fast really did yeah it took 00:21:47.180 --> 00:21:53.340 forever to get anywhere and then it was like okay we're doing something okay 00:21:53.340 --> 00:21:58.300 got it all right let's let's let's keep talking speaking to the Verge 00:21:58.300 --> 00:22:03.860 discord's global head of product policy stated that and this is a quote for most 00:22:03.860 --> 00:22:09.660 adults age verification won't be required huh remember how I said though 00:22:09.660 --> 00:22:15.260 that you weren't necessarily going to like how they were doing that she went 00:22:15.260 --> 00:22:20.700 on to explain the discord's age inference model uses account information 00:22:20.700 --> 00:22:26.780 such as tenure device and activity data and high-level patterns to attempt to 00:22:26.780 --> 00:22:34.020 determine the user's age range so I guess I'm safe because I still use gifs 00:22:34.460 --> 00:22:40.060 which are apparently boomer meta now oh but I call them that which means you're 00:22:40.060 --> 00:22:47.700 obviously ancient so you're you're good you're in the clear for sure if the 00:22:47.700 --> 00:22:53.580 system is unable to infer a user's age the user will be prompted to take a video 00:22:53.580 --> 00:22:59.300 selfie for facial age estimation discord claims the video won't leave your device 00:22:59.300 --> 00:23:05.260 but as many commenters noted that does not mean that your biometric data is 00:23:05.260 --> 00:23:12.420 safe alternatively you can submit a scan of government issued ID along with a 00:23:12.420 --> 00:23:17.620 selfie as definitive proof of age age will be apparently estimated using the 00:23:17.620 --> 00:23:22.700 KID tool from Swiss based vendor privately discord claims images of 00:23:22.700 --> 00:23:28.260 documents are deleted in most cases immediately after age 00:23:28.300 --> 00:23:33.780 confirm it what does in most cases mean why would it not be in all cases and they 00:23:33.780 --> 00:23:38.620 also claim they don't keep the information from the ID which you know 00:23:38.620 --> 00:23:43.100 you tell a community like discord that oh yeah we're gonna you know we're only 00:23:43.100 --> 00:23:46.780 gonna do this with it and we're gonna delete it probably immediately and it 00:23:46.780 --> 00:23:50.180 will totally be fine of course they're gonna start you know pulling at every 00:23:50.180 --> 00:23:54.180 loose thread they can find so some discord users posted on reddit saying 00:23:54.180 --> 00:23:58.100 that policies for KID and privately don't exactly line up with what discord 00:23:58.140 --> 00:24:03.780 also think this is actually out of date information oh okay I full plane chat 00:24:03.780 --> 00:24:07.660 got me going down a path and then I started googling some things and it 00:24:07.660 --> 00:24:14.740 sounds like they've swapped out the KID plan okay no they're now going down they 00:24:14.740 --> 00:24:19.540 didn't do a like roll it back situation they just switched partners and now 00:24:19.540 --> 00:24:23.820 they're working with a company called persona and people in full plane chat 00:24:23.860 --> 00:24:31.500 I've not verified this yet are saying that persona is owned by Peter teal so 00:24:31.500 --> 00:24:36.060 wait this is out of date but not in a way that it is getting better in any way 00:24:36.060 --> 00:24:47.140 no like potentially worse yeah why you were for an actual fairly extended 00:24:47.140 --> 00:24:51.740 period of time in the UK as an experiment okay yeah sorry I there's 00:24:51.860 --> 00:24:56.860 some stuff going on here I'm not a hundred percent sure what it is there's 00:24:56.860 --> 00:25:02.300 a red thread from 11 hours ago like this is very new discord is assured its 00:25:02.300 --> 00:25:06.900 users that it is using KID for its facial age estimation this is a beaten 00:25:06.900 --> 00:25:13.860 switch KID is an on-device zero knowledge proof you can scan your face 00:25:13.860 --> 00:25:17.140 then KID runs an assessment model locally and estimates your age I mean that 00:25:17.140 --> 00:25:21.020 sounds pretty alright this court only receives a token let's say blah blah 00:25:21.020 --> 00:25:25.660 blah that sounds not too bad persona is a corporate partner of Palantir a 00:25:25.660 --> 00:25:29.500 spying surveillance company that blah blah blah blah they quote-unquote delete 00:25:29.500 --> 00:25:33.060 your information within minutes usually but they retain the embeddings the 00:25:33.060 --> 00:25:36.460 embeddings are machine readable portion of your face or ID something 00:25:36.460 --> 00:25:42.540 something something oh this is promise KID but is giving us persona this is all 00:25:42.620 --> 00:25:50.260 relatively new okay so I don't know about all this here's what we can say 00:25:50.260 --> 00:25:57.060 definitively we can say that so far the story from discord doesn't seem to be 00:25:57.060 --> 00:26:01.620 firmed up in a way that is making their community happy yeah I think we can say 00:26:01.620 --> 00:26:07.900 that many commenters have mentioned canceling nitro subscriptions and or 00:26:07.900 --> 00:26:11.700 moving to other platforms even if they don't get prompted to verify their 00:26:11.700 --> 00:26:15.420 accounts others have started placing bets on how long it'll take for discord 00:26:15.420 --> 00:26:19.820 to be hit with another breach because of course everybody bets on everything now 00:26:19.820 --> 00:26:25.140 this is not financial advice I would not get involved in that personally 00:26:25.140 --> 00:26:33.460 commenters have also brought up some pretty well I've a pretty familiar debate 00:26:33.460 --> 00:26:36.900 between the real name solved everything crowd and the privacy advocates 00:26:36.900 --> 00:26:43.540 reminding us that while there can be benefits to people using real names I 00:26:43.540 --> 00:26:48.540 you know okay well this is pretty early in the show for me to say something this 00:26:48.540 --> 00:26:55.020 controversial but I appreciate or at least appreciated before it was so full 00:26:55.020 --> 00:27:00.740 of spammers the real identity element of Facebook marketplace it was a lot easier 00:27:00.740 --> 00:27:04.900 to navigate knowing that for the most part these were real people yeah it's 00:27:04.900 --> 00:27:08.140 just scammers anyways now it's just scammers anyway they seem to have kind 00:27:08.140 --> 00:27:12.580 of overcome it yeah so there have been there has been at least one time when I 00:27:12.580 --> 00:27:19.300 personally enjoyed and appreciated that element of a web service but it's worth 00:27:19.300 --> 00:27:25.660 reminding even the people who do enjoy that vibe that online privacy can be a 00:27:25.660 --> 00:27:30.260 literal life-and-death issue sometimes and even when it's not life-and-death many 00:27:30.260 --> 00:27:33.400 folks have a good reason not to share their identities as explained by 00:27:33.400 --> 00:27:39.300 Redditor radia active truth this is a quote am I really going to associate my 00:27:39.300 --> 00:27:42.780 legal name with the PTSD groups that I'm part of because of course they're not 00:27:42.780 --> 00:27:49.040 safe for work so I would need to be age verified like do you know how sickening 00:27:49.040 --> 00:27:57.140 it would be to the hundreds of members there to have to put our legal names on experiences that scarred us right like there's so many perspectives there's so 00:27:57.140 --> 00:28:02.660 many ways that people use the internet and connect on the internet that rely 00:28:02.720 --> 00:28:12.840 on not being forced to upload a government issued ID okay Luke go ahead and 00:28:12.840 --> 00:28:20.440 say it oh just like this was obviously inevitable oh no I was gonna I was I 00:28:20.440 --> 00:28:23.840 wanted you to just tell us you already use TeamSpeak just like you already use 00:28:23.840 --> 00:28:28.280 Firefox because you're just that cool I do I do use TeamSpeak though like I 00:28:28.300 --> 00:28:33.780 actually do I okay I use an older version of TeamSpeak I I do think I 00:28:33.780 --> 00:28:37.300 have never used this one but I do think a lot of people are unaware so like okay 00:28:37.300 --> 00:28:40.780 hold on hold on hold on hold on I'm gonna go back speak the answer Luke is 00:28:40.780 --> 00:28:44.620 TeamSpeak the answer I think for most people the answer is going to be to stay 00:28:44.620 --> 00:28:49.580 on discord which is really sad I would encourage you to try something else now 00:28:49.580 --> 00:28:56.060 when we go back to the old greats Ventrilo is still showing off this this 00:28:56.080 --> 00:29:02.240 UI so okay that might not be working for a lot of people mumble is still showing 00:29:02.240 --> 00:29:09.280 off this UI so again it it might not be up there for a lot of people even though 00:29:09.280 --> 00:29:15.280 both of them are based I'm just saying but TeamSpeak is trying I haven't tried 00:29:15.280 --> 00:29:21.480 this version of TeamSpeak but they have like chat channels and server browsers 00:29:21.780 --> 00:29:28.380 and friends lists and chats and like it looks a lot like discord I when the 00:29:28.380 --> 00:29:32.260 group of people that I joined that was using TeamSpeak told me they're using 00:29:32.260 --> 00:29:40.460 TeamSpeak I was excited about this and then I realized that we're still using like I think TeamSpeak 3 or something nice also someone in chat said TeamSpeak 00:29:40.460 --> 00:29:45.220 6 is just a matrix server with a different UI which brings up matrix which 00:29:45.220 --> 00:29:49.060 is another thing a bunch people have been talking about I had that ready thank 00:29:49.080 --> 00:29:53.880 you thank you for priming me on that flowpoint chat matrix is another option 00:29:53.880 --> 00:29:58.800 that people are exploring things are built on top of this which I can't 00:29:58.800 --> 00:30:03.040 confirm that this is actually just built on top of matrix but it I mean that 00:30:03.040 --> 00:30:10.960 would maybe make sense but there there are there are other options I know a 00:30:10.960 --> 00:30:15.600 lot of people are going to run into this this thing and just go like well okay 00:30:15.620 --> 00:30:20.220 discord is the only thing out there for a weird blip of time people used Skype 00:30:20.220 --> 00:30:24.380 before then people used like yeah a huge variety of things mumble ventrilo 00:30:24.380 --> 00:30:30.060 TeamSpeak X fire a razor comms for four and a half minutes I was I was gonna say 00:30:30.060 --> 00:30:34.060 I was gonna say I mean the show is already brought to you by razor three 00:30:34.060 --> 00:30:37.980 other times why don't they resurrect comms yeah the show can be brought to you 00:30:37.980 --> 00:30:43.260 by razor comms but a discord did fully pull a Amazon Walmart maneuver and 00:30:43.280 --> 00:30:50.960 effectively kill everything else so there really isn't much but momentum yeah 00:30:50.960 --> 00:30:56.120 not much that has any meaningful sort of user base that they could that they 00:30:56.120 --> 00:31:01.840 could grow that they could kind of quickly grow from yeah yeah but there are 00:31:01.840 --> 00:31:04.920 efforts out there and I would implore you to at least check them out matrix 00:31:04.920 --> 00:31:09.720 sounds really exciting they're also I'm not gonna name them just because the 00:31:09.720 --> 00:31:13.000 open source people can be a little spicy sometimes but there's been a 00:31:13.000 --> 00:31:20.620 couple people in Floatplane chat that have been like yeah but matrix is kind of not great I've never personally used it but I've heard great things 00:31:20.620 --> 00:31:26.460 milia's points out that steam chat has actually improved a lot way better between 00:31:26.460 --> 00:31:32.660 the time that we actually relied on steam chat quite a bit and then discord 00:31:32.660 --> 00:31:40.140 took over and then was dominant valve has quietly continued to improve the 00:31:40.140 --> 00:31:47.080 social experiences of just using steam I mean I don't so I said what was lack 00:31:47.080 --> 00:31:53.120 slack is not an acceptable replacement for gaming groups in my opinion yeah 00:31:53.120 --> 00:32:01.000 that's a tough one and I don't love the the fact that steams social experiences 00:32:01.000 --> 00:32:04.720 which still aren't amazing are baked right into the steam platform I want 00:32:04.720 --> 00:32:08.580 something that is truly cross-platform and like okay yes they have the mobile 00:32:08.600 --> 00:32:18.320 app but like this is this feels like one of those things where if Microsoft and 00:32:18.320 --> 00:32:23.320 the Xbox team were like on it they you you know where I'm going with a hundred 00:32:23.320 --> 00:32:29.800 they were never will if they were dialed right yep like if they were dialed this 00:32:29.800 --> 00:32:33.840 would have been solved so long ago they were dialed they never would have 00:32:33.840 --> 00:32:39.140 abandoned MSN messenger and then now they would have like a gaming yeah version 00:32:39.140 --> 00:32:42.540 or something I don't know they would have some form of way to like tied into 00:32:42.540 --> 00:32:50.940 gaming if only Microsoft had known how enormous social networking social media 00:32:50.940 --> 00:32:57.500 was going to be because they were they were so far ahead they had all the 00:32:57.500 --> 00:33:01.940 mindshare all of it yeah nothing else mattered other than MSN and Skype which 00:33:01.960 --> 00:33:07.840 they bought like trillion was dead ICQ was dead aim was dead everything was 00:33:07.840 --> 00:33:13.320 dead they were just they were it only show in town yeah some people are saying 00:33:13.320 --> 00:33:18.880 like the hardest thing will be I think it was Elijah I don't know I lost it no 00:33:18.880 --> 00:33:22.240 it was Elijah the hardest thing would be getting whole groups to move like I have 00:33:22.240 --> 00:33:27.520 a server with 1500 people how do I move everyone yeah no that's really that's a 00:33:27.540 --> 00:33:33.060 great point yeah because you there will be there's also a lot of discord bots and 00:33:33.060 --> 00:33:39.540 discord integrations for different communities and stuff I discord is I 00:33:39.540 --> 00:33:47.780 think it's free to self-host I'm pretty sure so like maybe consider that 00:33:48.720 --> 00:33:56.840 because it's still free but like I don't know guys this isn't this isn't it I 00:33:56.840 --> 00:34:01.080 don't think I think we're still gonna be waiting for what it is but when you look 00:34:01.080 --> 00:34:06.320 at the mass of what discord is and then you try to tell me nitro is fully 00:34:06.320 --> 00:34:11.120 funding that platform sorry bro there's no way I don't believe I had this 00:34:11.120 --> 00:34:15.320 conversation with one of the writers the other day forget who it was but they 00:34:15.320 --> 00:34:18.980 were they were making the argument to me that yeah do you have any idea how 00:34:18.980 --> 00:34:22.300 much people spend on nitro and all that and I'm just looking at it going like I 00:34:22.300 --> 00:34:32.380 don't think it looks like they've they've gone I mean we've seen it so many 00:34:32.380 --> 00:34:36.620 times that I don't know why oh it was Elijah we've seen it so many times that I 00:34:36.620 --> 00:34:41.500 don't understand why we keep getting surprised by it a new service shows up 00:34:41.800 --> 00:34:47.000 it's totally free it's totally way better than anything else that you would 00:34:47.000 --> 00:34:52.040 probably have to pay for or is free and you know kind of jank because it's a 00:34:52.040 --> 00:34:55.240 handful of people that are working on it in their spare time like of course you've 00:34:55.240 --> 00:34:59.760 got mumble up on screen right now yep that checks out and everyone migrates to 00:34:59.760 --> 00:35:03.840 it they get the user base that they keep growing the user base which allows them 00:35:03.840 --> 00:35:09.720 to you know keep getting access to funding to keep burning money and then 00:35:09.720 --> 00:35:16.100 at some point the piper comes calling and they have to figure out how to make 00:35:16.100 --> 00:35:19.860 money on it and they come up with all these ideas and they convert some of the 00:35:19.860 --> 00:35:25.980 users to paid but it's it's not enough I don't think I'm convinced that nitro is 00:35:25.980 --> 00:35:32.820 enough geek power points out there are ads in discord yep fair enough as someone 00:35:32.820 --> 00:35:38.980 who uses it unpaid with no nitro and okay admittedly I do have I do have a 00:35:39.040 --> 00:35:45.240 pretty solid built-in ad block into my brain but I have I don't think I've ever 00:35:45.240 --> 00:35:49.600 seen an ad in discord I've okay they bother me about nitro but I just 00:35:49.600 --> 00:35:53.760 dismissed that pretty good there are cosmetics I know very few people that 00:35:53.760 --> 00:35:58.240 have paid cosmetics there are free well I know people that have those okay yeah 00:35:58.240 --> 00:36:01.680 right you only need a few whales you only need a few whales when it comes to 00:36:01.680 --> 00:36:06.400 cosmetics I still think there's gonna be just like what happens with basically 00:36:06.400 --> 00:36:12.460 every platform I think there's gonna be a major we want to make more money now 00:36:12.460 --> 00:36:16.100 push at some point and they've been slowly creeping towards it and maybe 00:36:16.100 --> 00:36:21.700 it'll just continue to be slowly but yeah and then the other part is as you 00:36:21.700 --> 00:36:26.300 acquire all these users you're you're kind of caught between a rock in a hard 00:36:26.300 --> 00:36:30.420 place right like you're you're caught between this need to monetize the user 00:36:30.420 --> 00:36:36.560 base that you don't have because or you that you haven't figured out because you 00:36:36.560 --> 00:36:40.320 were like okay but we'll deal with that later and then you're caught between 00:36:40.320 --> 00:36:46.280 that and the regulatory burden that exists for extremely large platforms 00:36:46.280 --> 00:36:49.720 regardless of how much money they're making like if you had a social media 00:36:49.720 --> 00:36:55.600 platform that had a hundred million users you're going to be under intense 00:36:55.600 --> 00:37:00.080 scrutiny whether you're making a billion dollars a year or losing a billion 00:37:00.100 --> 00:37:03.380 dollars a year it doesn't really matter just because you're so influential 00:37:03.380 --> 00:37:07.020 whiskey nerd points out that the discord IPO was supposed to be next month in 00:37:07.020 --> 00:37:13.380 March yeah that's something that's okay I saw a conspiracy theory that this is 00:37:13.380 --> 00:37:22.020 like 4d chess trying to somehow manipulate the public perception towards 00:37:22.020 --> 00:37:26.540 discord right before the IPO because that was the only explanation they could 00:37:26.540 --> 00:37:33.120 come up with for why they would do something this upsetting to their user 00:37:33.120 --> 00:37:39.920 base right before they go public but and maybe this is just me not being you 00:37:39.920 --> 00:37:46.320 know stock market brained enough but could there possibly be any reason for 00:37:46.320 --> 00:37:53.480 you to want your company to be worth less before you go IPO I thought you 00:37:53.500 --> 00:38:01.580 want to juice the valuation before you go IPO that's weird hit me up hit come 00:38:01.580 --> 00:38:08.300 on maybe that's the like Palantir adjacent push working with persona 00:38:08.300 --> 00:38:09.940 because that's a that's a weird move 00:38:18.060 --> 00:38:23.380 all publicity is good publicity says Advocatis diaboli most equities 00:38:23.380 --> 00:38:28.600 trading is bots bots don't care about product sentiment okay that's that 00:38:28.600 --> 00:38:32.680 second part though is an it's an interesting point but if they bleed 00:38:32.680 --> 00:38:38.040 users bots probably care about that a little bit tank the initial price go 00:38:38.040 --> 00:38:42.760 public then once you buy a ton you roll back the bad stuff and go up once you 00:38:42.760 --> 00:38:46.480 own it no because then you wouldn't just you just wouldn't IPO in the first 00:38:46.540 --> 00:38:48.860 place you would just keep owning the stock 00:38:52.860 --> 00:38:58.860 will we control the running costs I really I really don't think that's it 00:38:58.860 --> 00:39:02.580 because we'll see how much people actually care is what this ultimately is 00:39:02.580 --> 00:39:06.660 going to lead to because like you hear really really loud noises about so many 00:39:06.660 --> 00:39:12.700 different things gambling micro transactions and video games all these 00:39:12.700 --> 00:39:23.880 different things then you see the user behavior is to just use it more than ever yeah I I think I think the ultimate reaction to this is going to be nothing 00:39:23.880 --> 00:39:29.800 and that's kind of sad but I mean I'm gonna go check out you know team speak 00:39:29.800 --> 00:39:33.880 six or whatever this is see how cool it is maybe it's cool maybe it's not maybe 00:39:33.880 --> 00:39:39.800 it'll be a real alternative maybe it won't be but I'm interested okay cool 00:39:39.800 --> 00:39:44.640 that's a pretty depressing note to end that on but let's get right into let's 00:39:44.700 --> 00:39:49.040 get right into a an update for you guys whale land brought to you by threat 00:39:49.040 --> 00:39:54.360 locker do you want to throw the schedule up on screen Luke is just one 00:39:54.360 --> 00:40:00.180 count them one week away we've got an extensive lineup of game scheduled for 00:40:00.180 --> 00:40:05.280 the stage the 8v8 arena and the lounge with locally hosted lobbies for a 00:40:05.280 --> 00:40:10.700 bunch of games including Battlefront 2 tribes to and other classics like Halo 00:40:10.720 --> 00:40:15.080 custom edition you can enjoy some classic split screen or local multiplayer 00:40:15.080 --> 00:40:19.040 action in the gaming lounge we'll have a lineup of party games ranging from 8 to 00:40:19.040 --> 00:40:22.400 12 players at once and we'll be hosting a smash bros tournament in the lounge on 00:40:22.400 --> 00:40:26.680 Saturday we're pulling up to the land with the new and improved modified 00:40:26.680 --> 00:40:32.560 fire truck featuring okay hold on it only has some of this stuff so far so 00:40:32.560 --> 00:40:36.720 don't read out all of this but it definitely has a super custom Nintendo 00:40:36.720 --> 00:40:40.160 switch to themed gaming TV setup in the back so you can check out the fire 00:40:40.180 --> 00:40:47.700 truck in person oh yeah and we just got comfort oh no way seriously we just got 00:40:47.700 --> 00:40:53.780 confirmation today that just like LTX 2023 we will have a custom screwdriver 00:40:53.780 --> 00:40:59.420 station on site oh whoa really I had no idea this is the first time hearing of 00:40:59.420 --> 00:41:06.100 it but that's pretty cool that is cool so we'll see you guys there I have I 00:41:06.100 --> 00:41:09.980 ever explicitly said that you and I are gonna be there like we've talked about 00:41:10.120 --> 00:41:15.000 whale land a lot but did we clarify that oh man I got my date screwed I am 00:41:15.000 --> 00:41:19.120 gonna be there to be clear as the spoiler I am gonna be there the whole 00:41:19.120 --> 00:41:22.680 time everything's fine everything's okay but I got my date screwed up and I 00:41:22.680 --> 00:41:30.440 thought that thing that's coming this weekend that I told you about was that weekend and I was like no and then figured out that I'm all clear I'm all 00:41:30.440 --> 00:41:39.480 good so I'll be there jeez Luke I was real upset for a moment anyway tickets 00:41:39.540 --> 00:41:47.820 are available at LMG dot GG slash whale land we will see you there I gotta jump 00:41:47.820 --> 00:41:52.460 back into something because somebody in chat reminded me of something I was 00:41:52.460 --> 00:41:58.340 gonna say where to go deep blue v7 said our our servers for our open source 00:41:58.340 --> 00:42:02.100 chat solution have been buckling under all the people signing up maybe just 00:42:02.100 --> 00:42:06.180 temporary but usually some people stay at least and that's awesome I'm very 00:42:06.180 --> 00:42:09.180 happy for and I really don't want this come across negative but something I was 00:42:09.200 --> 00:42:13.320 planning on saying for this segment was that if like say team speaks users for 00:42:13.320 --> 00:42:21.040 example double quadruple I don't think discord will even notice the the the 00:42:21.040 --> 00:42:26.440 mass that discord has right now is insane and one thing that this might help 00:42:26.440 --> 00:42:31.920 is like your open source project maybe you guys get bigger and maybe team speak 00:42:31.920 --> 00:42:40.740 it's bigger and maybe these other solutions get bigger and maybe they become at least seen as a viable actual alternative that alone in my opinion 00:42:40.740 --> 00:42:45.620 would be a huge win because right now it's it's nothing people basically just 00:42:45.620 --> 00:42:52.300 use discord or nothing it's it's only discord so if we can at least normalize 00:42:52.300 --> 00:42:57.260 that there are alternatives even if we can't take a real actual sizable chunk 00:42:57.260 --> 00:43:02.580 out but if we can just normalize there being alternatives I think that would be 00:43:03.360 --> 00:43:06.720 awesome so just try to keep that in mind I don't think we're gonna be able to 00:43:06.720 --> 00:43:12.200 make a real dent to discord but this is a this is a slow war not a fast one I 00:43:12.200 --> 00:43:21.560 think all right do you want to pick our next topic sure modern standby won't 00:43:21.560 --> 00:43:25.600 drain your battery anymore according to Microsoft Windows 11 yeah according 00:43:25.600 --> 00:43:29.720 according to Microsoft can also be used that way Windows 11 background 00:43:29.720 --> 00:43:34.100 processes won't trigger modern standby issues meaning you'll no longer see 00:43:34.100 --> 00:43:38.740 excessive battery drain when your machine should be in the s0 sleep state 00:43:38.740 --> 00:43:45.380 previously certain process previously certain processes previously certain 00:43:45.380 --> 00:43:49.100 processes were able to break the machine out of the sleep state without the 00:43:49.100 --> 00:43:55.340 user's knowledge leading to unexpected battery use and in many cases it is now 00:43:55.340 --> 00:43:59.540 stored somewhere that it's difficult for it to breathe so like a backpack or 00:43:59.540 --> 00:44:02.840 something like that and it can also go into really really bad thermal situations 00:44:02.840 --> 00:44:10.880 and and and those thermal situations can be exacerbated by the use of say for 00:44:10.880 --> 00:44:18.640 example liquid metal thermal interface material which when when when it's 00:44:18.640 --> 00:44:23.680 stored in a backpack completely enclosed and the laptop gets super hot for no 00:44:23.680 --> 00:44:29.520 reason whatsoever and is on its side for a extended period of time can lead to 00:44:29.520 --> 00:44:37.500 some pretty bad stuff oh yeah it can lead to unexpected battery use naturally in 00:44:37.500 --> 00:44:40.500 a good environment it can lead to other even worse things in a bad environment 00:44:40.500 --> 00:44:46.900 in newer builds Windows will now try to prevent the PC from waking up try without 00:44:46.900 --> 00:44:50.700 the user opening the lid or pressing the power button the discussion question is 00:44:50.700 --> 00:44:54.900 has anyone not employed by Microsoft confirm this is actually fixed I don't 00:44:54.900 --> 00:44:58.860 think anyone's completed testing on this yet I'm sure other people are and 00:44:58.880 --> 00:45:02.840 please check theirs out as well but Labs is gonna be is gonna be cooking on this 00:45:02.840 --> 00:45:05.840 a little bit we obviously have other things we're already working on but 00:45:05.840 --> 00:45:09.760 this is something we will be looking to as well so hopefully we'll have updates 00:45:09.760 --> 00:45:14.560 for you there I'm sure there will be an article if nothing else and yeah I hope 00:45:14.560 --> 00:45:17.560 other people check it out too because this is gonna be something that's 00:45:17.560 --> 00:45:23.960 relatively difficult to conclusively make statements okay I have a fantastic 00:45:24.500 --> 00:45:31.940 test system for you my elite book that I've been daily driving lately is I would 00:45:31.940 --> 00:45:40.940 say a solid like one out of eight times is gonna be like piping hot when I take 00:45:40.940 --> 00:45:46.140 it out of my backpack my backpack and so it comes up for me a lot just because 00:45:46.140 --> 00:45:51.740 this is kind of funny I haven't had a desktop at work for like a year it was 00:45:51.800 --> 00:45:56.840 back when I did the qualcomm snapdragon 30 day challenge I stopped using my 00:45:56.840 --> 00:46:00.760 desktop because I was supposed to be using snapdragon for a month and then I 00:46:00.760 --> 00:46:09.040 had some issues with my NCIX PC desktop and then I just never went back to not 00:46:09.040 --> 00:46:14.760 just using my laptop on a dock even though I went back to x86 more recently 00:46:14.760 --> 00:46:20.920 with a strict halo machine so that that HP I'd look I don't know that I would 00:46:20.940 --> 00:46:27.340 necessarily blame HP for this but I run into this all the flipping time and it 00:46:27.340 --> 00:46:33.260 is so freaking annoying people are very rightfully pointing out that MacBooks 00:46:33.260 --> 00:46:38.180 don't really have this issue nope and also pointing out that Linux laptops 00:46:38.180 --> 00:46:44.620 don't really have this issue nope yeah that's totally fair I mean hey we're 00:46:44.620 --> 00:46:50.340 we're kicking the Linux challenge off I think in this next coming week right 00:46:50.640 --> 00:47:00.440 yeah and I told I told Elijah I want five drives so my desktop upstairs my 00:47:00.440 --> 00:47:07.680 desktop downstairs my work laptop my my oh my hand held and then I think there 00:47:07.680 --> 00:47:11.640 was there was one other one I was like I'm doing it Luke I'm going for it this 00:47:11.640 --> 00:47:19.160 time yeah I'm not gonna touch Windows for do we do we help each other at all 00:47:20.640 --> 00:47:29.760 interesting like how much like because okay so here hold on let me put it this 00:47:29.760 --> 00:47:35.240 way I think I agree with you but I have some comments because I would think you 00:47:35.240 --> 00:47:40.920 know a very community driven initiative like Linux right you would think well 00:47:40.920 --> 00:47:46.080 yeah community is why not your immediate part of it right yeah and if your 00:47:46.100 --> 00:47:53.940 community was like Linux noobs you know who are who are also who are who are 00:47:53.940 --> 00:47:58.540 also on this journey at the same time I would say that that is is kosher I'd 00:47:58.540 --> 00:48:02.700 say that that's fair game but I don't think some of the other folks in our 00:48:02.700 --> 00:48:06.100 cohort would really qualify as a Linux noob and then where do we draw the line 00:48:06.100 --> 00:48:12.420 like am I allowed to call Wendell you know I feel like for me I kind of still 00:48:12.440 --> 00:48:16.640 want to be me I'm not gonna completely pretend to not know anything because 00:48:16.640 --> 00:48:21.320 this is not my first kick at the can but I'm but I'm not gonna just leverage the 00:48:21.320 --> 00:48:25.920 resources that I have I like I think Elijah has a line in the script that's 00:48:25.920 --> 00:48:29.240 something along along the lines of like not everyone has torvolds on speed dial 00:48:29.240 --> 00:48:35.760 right like you can't we can't we can't just we can't be us either it has to be 00:48:35.760 --> 00:48:41.120 somewhere in the middle Elijah just trying to flex as per use yeah okay 00:48:41.140 --> 00:48:49.940 fair enough I mean it's a pretty cool flex yeah yeah I I'm not sure how this is 00:48:49.940 --> 00:48:56.780 gonna go for me I think yours is gonna be kind of boring just might be you're 00:48:56.780 --> 00:49:04.060 like dailying it already yeah but like it's it also it hasn't truly been daily 00:49:04.060 --> 00:49:07.940 because that laptop has had so many hardware issues that has been bouncing 00:49:07.940 --> 00:49:11.480 back and forth between getting serviced and coming back to me that sometimes I 00:49:11.480 --> 00:49:16.920 end up back on Windows for a while and then I go back to running various 00:49:16.920 --> 00:49:22.080 versions of Linux Linux is never saying genuinely never been the problem and I 00:49:22.080 --> 00:49:25.720 have verified multiple times that it happens I have two drives in the machine 00:49:25.720 --> 00:49:31.400 now so I have one for Windows and one for Linux well not realistically I have 00:49:31.400 --> 00:49:41.460 one that is split in half for Windows and Linux then I have a storage drive but whatever you know what I mean and it yeah they they want me to like try to 00:49:41.460 --> 00:49:44.500 verify that it's working under Windows they just don't believe me so it's like 00:49:44.500 --> 00:49:48.620 okay I'm running Windows and I ran into the same problem again thank you please 00:49:48.620 --> 00:49:53.900 fix and then after I have it for like a little while if I know they're gonna 00:49:53.900 --> 00:49:57.180 repair it I go back to Linux anyways because that's what I want to be using 00:49:57.180 --> 00:50:02.660 but I've been like verifying the issues within Windows and it's a problem in 00:50:02.680 --> 00:50:09.920 both it's definitely like hardware issues with the laptop it has nothing to do software at all but that's so yeah I've been bouncing back and forth so I can't 00:50:09.920 --> 00:50:14.160 quite say that I've been daily it but I have been fairly actively using it for a 00:50:14.160 --> 00:50:17.440 long time now and feel pretty comfortable in it but I'm also not really 00:50:17.440 --> 00:50:22.680 gaming much on that laptop I find personally and I'm genuinely not 00:50:22.680 --> 00:50:26.640 intentionally calling anyone out here but even even a video that I publicly 00:50:26.640 --> 00:50:32.320 said I liked a lot and I do like a lot whenever you see creators do like 00:50:32.340 --> 00:50:39.340 Linux I switched challenges it's always framed as a challenge and that always 00:50:39.340 --> 00:50:44.100 involves doing things that are particularly difficult in Linux I don't 00:50:44.100 --> 00:50:48.300 even okay this stood out let me finish talking this stood out to me because when 00:50:48.300 --> 00:50:52.660 I switched Linux on my laptop I just did what I always do and it was literally 00:50:52.660 --> 00:50:58.420 never a problem all right ever but everyone always has like a thing and 00:50:58.600 --> 00:51:03.480 it's very common that it's creators and creators always have to edit videos and 00:51:03.480 --> 00:51:08.680 this is like a known problem is it like Premiere doesn't work very well right so 00:51:08.680 --> 00:51:11.720 they run into like the editing videos problem and then they're like oops it 00:51:11.720 --> 00:51:15.240 doesn't work and it's like yeah okay well that was predictable because all the 00:51:15.240 --> 00:51:19.080 other I switched videos also tried to edit videos and also had problems so 00:51:19.080 --> 00:51:25.080 it's like yeah all right let the record show that that right there was 00:51:25.100 --> 00:51:29.500 definitive proof that anything can happen once Luke did in fact get to finish 00:51:29.500 --> 00:51:37.020 talking but I'm still gonna jump in now that you're done and defend myself yeah 00:51:37.020 --> 00:51:42.580 I don't think anything that we tried to do as part of our last I switched was 00:51:42.580 --> 00:51:49.700 unrealistic or unreasonable because I wasn't trying to I wasn't trying to 00:51:50.000 --> 00:51:56.040 switch was video our last I switch was pretty successful though I mean I had a 00:51:56.040 --> 00:51:59.800 lot of issues I'm not necessarily saying I had a problem with our previous run at 00:51:59.800 --> 00:52:10.080 it oh okay I just like in general I think the I don't know I would implore the 00:52:10.080 --> 00:52:14.880 audience to pay attention to the things that you know we the three of us or 00:52:14.880 --> 00:52:19.520 anyone else has actual problems with instead of just their conclusion being 00:52:19.540 --> 00:52:24.020 that there was some problems with what they were doing like if they if they 00:52:24.020 --> 00:52:30.700 play you know if you play games that are proton platinum and you just run some 00:52:30.700 --> 00:52:35.220 basic applications and spend the vast majority of your time in a web browser 00:52:35.220 --> 00:52:43.700 like an enormously massive percentage of users then in a lot of cases you know 00:52:43.700 --> 00:52:47.540 what I actually won't say this is a definitive statement I suspect in a lot 00:52:47.560 --> 00:52:54.320 of cases it's gonna be totally fine but we'll see how it ends up going yeah all 00:52:54.320 --> 00:52:58.880 right I can't see Dan's Luke saying there's a negative connotation to 00:52:58.880 --> 00:53:03.320 challenge that suggests there was a problem that's part of it but I think 00:53:03.320 --> 00:53:06.960 it's that is definitely part of it but I also think people put themselves in 00:53:06.960 --> 00:53:12.560 situations intentionally sometimes it's like it's like the whole throwing for 00:53:12.560 --> 00:53:17.780 content thing right you put yourself in situations intentionally that will 00:53:17.780 --> 00:53:22.520 cause contention and will cause issues because that is insanely more 00:53:22.520 --> 00:53:27.120 interesting on camera if I went to explain my laptop experience with Linux 00:53:27.120 --> 00:53:31.760 on camera I would sit down and be like it was fine I used a web browser and it 00:53:31.760 --> 00:53:37.500 was it was fine it was fine I didn't have any problems I had to update it and 00:53:37.500 --> 00:53:42.540 then I went okay that's how and then I updated it and it was fine like 00:53:42.540 --> 00:53:46.980 no one's gonna care about that so so you have to like do something like they're 00:53:46.980 --> 00:53:50.260 literally promoting Linux by putting it in difficult situations that it's not 00:53:50.260 --> 00:53:53.260 gonna do well at because then at least more people will see the video and you 00:53:53.260 --> 00:53:56.780 might get more people to adopt it like I'm not going after the creators here to 00:53:56.780 --> 00:53:59.820 be clear it's just it's a complicated situation I just want people to 00:53:59.820 --> 00:54:04.340 understand that like just because it has problems doing certain things doesn't 00:54:04.340 --> 00:54:08.900 mean that it will always for one and for two doesn't mean that you're necessarily 00:54:08.940 --> 00:54:13.740 doing that like how many people in the audience are actually edit videos okay 00:54:13.740 --> 00:54:18.580 that is such a that is such a hilarious thing for you to bring up because so 00:54:18.580 --> 00:54:27.820 much of how we make decisions is totally not based on what we actually do 00:54:27.820 --> 00:54:34.140 dude we know we from we from GPU review videos that we make oh yeah and look at 00:54:34.140 --> 00:54:41.860 Apple's marketing how laser focused are they on you know on how creative you 00:54:41.860 --> 00:54:46.700 can be with your iPhone and there is absolutely a subset of the users that 00:54:46.700 --> 00:54:52.220 are you know gonna be you know the next filmmakers you know the next generation 00:54:52.220 --> 00:54:56.580 of filmmakers but there's also a lot of users that are just sitting in Starbucks 00:54:56.580 --> 00:55:00.180 browsing Facebook on their MacBook and that's all they were realistically ever 00:55:00.180 --> 00:55:03.500 gonna do on it and they could have had a Chromebook and they would have had quite 00:55:03.540 --> 00:55:08.340 literally exactly the same user experience yeah my phone is largely sold on 00:55:08.340 --> 00:55:14.820 its camera and 90% of the photos that I take are of my parking spots like the 00:55:14.820 --> 00:55:21.980 most Luke thing you've said at least today I was reviewing my photos from 00:55:21.980 --> 00:55:34.780 New York and it's it's it's where I parked my car at the airport it's funny 00:55:34.780 --> 00:55:38.140 because there's certain things that you do and there's certain places that you 00:55:38.140 --> 00:55:42.100 go you take a lot of that is true like when you went to that I'm gonna ask her 00:55:42.100 --> 00:55:47.740 and that get away from it all place you went in Taiwan yeah you took a ton of 00:55:47.740 --> 00:55:51.460 pictures there like you were you were behaving like a like a relative I 00:55:51.460 --> 00:56:01.300 haven't seen in a couple years how many pictures you wanted to show me like it was crazy yeah that's true but other than that like like you almost seem weird 00:56:01.300 --> 00:56:08.740 it out if I pull out a phone that dinner and I'm like let's take a picture to what 00:56:08.740 --> 00:56:19.660 end yeah for some reason my brain's like people or building no leaf yes rock 00:56:19.700 --> 00:56:27.940 yes I don't know parking spot triple yeah yeah yeah for sure every time will you 00:56:27.940 --> 00:56:31.300 actually use this reference someone said bird yeah that's true I have become that 00:56:31.300 --> 00:56:38.140 guy you're such a bird I don't know how it happened well my thumbs up is in the 00:56:38.140 --> 00:56:43.940 frame as well I'll be like yeah good bird if I had told you when I met you that 00:56:43.940 --> 00:56:47.820 you were gonna turn into a weird bird dad you'd have been like no that's stupid 00:56:47.820 --> 00:56:54.300 birds are stupid yeah like 100% yeah yeah there are ways you've been like 00:56:54.300 --> 00:57:00.420 there are a waste of time and money yeah honestly yeah yeah unbelievable that's 00:57:00.420 --> 00:57:08.940 still not necessarily untrue but I do like them a lot all right on the subject 00:57:08.940 --> 00:57:19.220 of taking pictures ring no ring is a company that is owned by Amazon and it 00:57:19.220 --> 00:57:24.740 takes a lot of pictures of your front porch and paid big bucks for a super 00:57:24.740 --> 00:57:31.740 bull ad to celebrate or announce or whatever whatever they were trying to 00:57:31.740 --> 00:57:36.900 do is not what ultimately happened but to promote their search party tool which 00:57:36.940 --> 00:57:43.060 allows anyone in the US ring owner or not to launch a search for their lost 00:57:43.060 --> 00:57:50.660 dogs using all the ring cameras in their neighborhood now hold on a second just 00:57:50.660 --> 00:57:54.700 give me one second here I can see the look on your face you know I can see you 00:57:54.700 --> 00:58:03.060 even though I'm remote right just contain yourself as someone who has lost 00:58:03.420 --> 00:58:10.020 multiple pets and who cried multiple tears multiple times over losing 00:58:10.020 --> 00:58:20.060 multiple pets I understand the sales pitch here yeah I get it however if 00:58:20.060 --> 00:58:25.060 you're in that moment if if if ten minutes ago you recognized that your pet 00:58:25.060 --> 00:58:30.820 is gone in that moment a lot of people are gonna want this thing even if right 00:58:30.860 --> 00:58:35.100 now they don't not everyone so people will hold true to their their you know 00:58:35.100 --> 00:58:43.660 their line however however this launch coming just a few months after ring 00:58:43.660 --> 00:58:47.300 announced a partnership with law enforcement surveillance provider 00:58:47.300 --> 00:58:55.900 flock safety was received with really an immediate and completely predictable 00:58:55.900 --> 00:59:04.060 response from just everyone with the EFF calling the feature a surveillance 00:59:04.060 --> 00:59:13.820 nightmare look if Amazon and ring was a company that I had any kind of trust in 00:59:13.820 --> 00:59:21.180 whatsoever right any kind of trust in whatsoever and they announced this like 00:59:21.340 --> 00:59:29.180 lost dog feature and it was a core part of the design of the product that all of 00:59:29.180 --> 00:59:37.740 the image recognition was done locally on device and that was opt-in and and and 00:59:37.740 --> 00:59:45.260 and it's something that as someone as a pet dad who has has lost a pet that got 00:59:45.260 --> 00:59:53.420 out it's something that I I would crave you know that I could want but the last 00:59:53.420 --> 00:59:59.620 two companies that I could have any interest yeah really in administering 01:00:11.420 --> 01:00:20.620 irrevocably yes that's the basically they could never earn my trust back the way 01:00:20.620 --> 01:00:30.700 that they have handled security and data privacy man flock and persona aka peer 01:00:30.700 --> 01:00:38.020 to deal getting into consumer stuff is not fun that being like a primary thread 01:00:38.020 --> 01:00:42.780 of today's show is not that cool it is worth noting by the way that they 01:00:42.780 --> 01:00:50.020 apparently ditched the flock partnership but like okay doesn't that just tell us 01:00:50.020 --> 01:00:57.060 everything we need to know about them how they choose their partners like I 01:00:57.060 --> 01:01:02.740 don't want to I don't want to be I don't want to be like that but you know if 01:01:02.740 --> 01:01:14.100 someone is if someone say for example was married to someone abhorrent and you 01:01:14.100 --> 01:01:19.660 know doesn't seem to have a problem with it you know like what's our what's our 01:01:19.660 --> 01:01:25.140 nuts let's let's use a historical example Eva Braun or Eva Braun excuse me 01:01:25.500 --> 01:01:34.380 okay is that's Hitler's wife oh like I never does it does it not tell us anything 01:01:34.380 --> 01:01:38.580 about her just how she chooses her partner it's like yeah at some point 01:01:38.580 --> 01:01:43.220 she cut ties with Hitler or whatever well they kind of both cut ties with the 01:01:43.220 --> 01:01:46.380 world at the same time but that's a whole separate thing you know like just 01:01:46.380 --> 01:01:50.820 because she divorces the guy does that not still tell us a fair bit about him 01:01:50.820 --> 01:01:57.060 especially if the circumstances of cutting ties were because of public 01:01:57.060 --> 01:02:01.780 pressure like doesn't that just doesn't it still tell us a lot about the kind of 01:02:01.780 --> 01:02:06.620 decision-making process that's going on behind closed doors is this called is 01:02:06.620 --> 01:02:12.620 this a thing so a zosis or whatever says Godwin's law like is this just like 01:02:12.620 --> 01:02:18.580 birds of a feather kind of thing what's Godwin's law I'm no I'm not reading the 01:02:18.700 --> 01:02:24.180 overview is an internet adage asserting as an online discussion grows longer the 01:02:24.180 --> 01:02:28.460 probability of a comparison involving Nazis or Hitler approaches but no okay 01:02:28.460 --> 01:02:32.900 very funny I actually thought this was a pretty good comparison Linus I will 01:02:32.900 --> 01:02:37.820 give you that thank you I just for other people that might be confused I was 01:02:37.820 --> 01:02:41.460 like I didn't think they did yeah they did not divorce I understand he's doing 01:02:41.460 --> 01:02:45.260 the comparison here because themselves yeah yeah he's doing the comparison to 01:02:45.260 --> 01:02:50.060 divorce here because Amazon and flock are no longer working together yeah but 01:02:50.060 --> 01:02:57.020 yeah and you know what like Avon Fox and Floatplane chat points out okay what 01:02:57.020 --> 01:03:00.860 if this person was manipulated or in a relationship due to pressure or whatever 01:03:00.860 --> 01:03:06.060 you did yeah okay yes that's fair it's not a perfect analogy please the the 01:03:06.060 --> 01:03:12.020 point is just that Amazon as a company clearly chose to partner with flock okay 01:03:12.340 --> 01:03:17.540 if Linus media group chose to partner with flock and then you guys got super mad 01:03:17.540 --> 01:03:26.500 about it predictably and then I said oh wow yeah wow that oh you guys are so 01:03:26.500 --> 01:03:31.580 right we should have never done that we're we're not doing that anymore wow 01:03:31.580 --> 01:03:40.860 I'm so glad that come on that's how you know has it not and we're not okay flock 01:03:40.860 --> 01:03:44.900 okay I don't think you could draw a direct parallel to anything like maybe not 01:03:44.900 --> 01:03:48.140 someone as bad as flock but we've worked with we've worked with brands someone 01:03:48.140 --> 01:03:51.660 just pointed out anchor yeah we've worked with brands someone said raid 01:03:51.660 --> 01:03:56.300 shadow legends we've worked with brands that we've been you know what maybe you 01:03:56.300 --> 01:04:01.060 guys are right let's pull back on that but flock literally like no I agree this 01:04:01.060 --> 01:04:05.220 scale is not the same but I'm just saying like this this can't be extrapolated 01:04:05.220 --> 01:04:11.860 fully so you can absolutely make mistakes but in this case I'm talking 01:04:11.860 --> 01:04:18.660 about partnering with again an abhorrent organization that it has complete 01:04:18.660 --> 01:04:24.820 and utter disregard for user security and privacy and some in some cases like 01:04:24.820 --> 01:04:30.940 rage shadow legends never led to anyone being you know falsely harassed by law 01:04:30.980 --> 01:04:36.660 enforcement or you know rage shadow legends never got anyone that never had 01:04:36.660 --> 01:04:41.460 anyone have a gun pointed at them because of it let's be real here guys I 01:04:41.460 --> 01:04:48.260 think these these two birds of the same feather whatever I'm trying to use the 01:04:48.260 --> 01:04:56.860 flock analogy yeah I don't know how much they mind it do be Amazon after all FTC 01:04:56.860 --> 01:05:01.820 this is a older 2023 but FTC and DOJ charge Amazon with violating children's 01:05:01.820 --> 01:05:06.220 privacy law by keeping kids Alexa voice recordings forever and undermining 01:05:06.220 --> 01:05:12.060 parents deletion requests Amazon just do be Amazon at the end of the day maybe 01:05:12.060 --> 01:05:17.860 they're kind of chill with with flock and the other thing raising that and the 01:05:17.860 --> 01:05:21.460 other thing is that it has to do with like our knowledge at the time if we 01:05:21.460 --> 01:05:26.780 announced a partnership with flock today when you've heard me on stream talking 01:05:26.780 --> 01:05:31.300 about the horrible things that they've done and making it clear how horrible I 01:05:31.300 --> 01:05:36.260 think they are like we know there's no precedent in LMG's history for anything 01:05:36.260 --> 01:05:40.180 like that like people are bringing up people are kind of trying to sort of 01:05:40.180 --> 01:05:43.460 poke poke holes in it here someone brought up the honey thing it's like 01:05:43.460 --> 01:05:47.900 yeah but we didn't know any of that we still have a huge we did and we stopped 01:05:47.900 --> 01:05:51.460 working with them as soon as we did like that that's the difference whereas when 01:05:51.460 --> 01:05:55.660 you announce a partnership with someone that you know is horrible then it's a 01:05:55.660 --> 01:06:05.420 completely different situation April Fool's video idea good lord oh what is 01:06:05.420 --> 01:06:15.820 we're partnering with flock yeah new new LTT Store webcams oh my god that's how 01:06:15.820 --> 01:06:24.180 we can use Twitter new Twitter cams barbed by flock 01:06:25.020 --> 01:06:32.060 it's a fin 724 and float playing chat says do not do that you will never 01:06:32.060 --> 01:06:37.300 recover and you're so right the number of time funny though dude the number of 01:06:37.300 --> 01:06:41.580 times I run up against people who legitimately believe horrible things 01:06:41.660 --> 01:06:46.740 about me because I joked about it or because I said it in April Fool's 01:06:46.740 --> 01:06:57.380 video is distressingly high my this is the reason that actors like Dwayne 01:06:57.380 --> 01:07:02.620 Johnson have no lose clauses in their contracts because people will actually 01:07:02.620 --> 01:07:07.860 watch someone be acting on TV and be stupid enough to think that they're 01:07:07.860 --> 01:07:11.380 weak because they lost a fight in a movie that they were scripted to lose 01:07:12.260 --> 01:07:16.020 which I think you know I think you can be comfortable just not caring about 01:07:16.020 --> 01:07:22.540 those people's opinions though I think I think that can be okay Luke I wish I 01:07:22.540 --> 01:07:29.180 wish that this was an isolated small tiny minority Luke I think you dig pretty 01:07:29.180 --> 01:07:37.700 hard to find comments sometimes I think you can't help yourself I I think that 01:07:37.980 --> 01:07:43.220 can be true at the same time as it can be true that it is a distressingly large 01:07:43.220 --> 01:07:55.820 number sure maybe I should just retire to a potato farm yeah Dan and I had a fancy 01:07:55.820 --> 01:08:00.660 dinner last night my favorite part was a potato they're pretty good potatoes are 01:08:00.660 --> 01:08:07.060 pretty good it's hard to knock a good potato dude dude a baked potato with 01:08:07.060 --> 01:08:11.940 some butter and some salt and pepper you get a bit of sour cream on there you 01:08:11.940 --> 01:08:17.500 get a little bit of like green onion oh like are you salivating brother oh yeah 01:08:17.500 --> 01:08:24.780 potato in almost any form though warm potato great great cold potato warm 01:08:24.780 --> 01:08:32.980 potato fantastic okay hear me out hear me out okay nugget potatoes cold nugget 01:08:32.980 --> 01:08:36.780 potatoes cold can be pretty good yeah all right potatoes just win potatoes are 01:08:36.980 --> 01:08:42.460 yeah and not not every not every french fries good cold but but there are 01:08:42.460 --> 01:08:46.700 there are good cold french fries I I'll die on that hill I think they're better 01:08:46.700 --> 01:08:52.060 warm oh I can't think of a I can't think of a potato that's like even even nugget 01:08:52.060 --> 01:08:56.860 potatoes I think they're better warm hmm potatoes gain a lot from heat I don't 01:08:56.860 --> 01:09:00.860 know why but I think they gain a lot from heat that I will give you a potato's 01:09:00.860 --> 01:09:05.700 like at a like room temperature are probably the best form of potatoes at 01:09:05.700 --> 01:09:11.860 room temperature in my opinion I want a better warm I once accidentally potato 01:09:11.860 --> 01:09:20.740 shirt eight so many room temperature nugget potatoes that I threw up I wasn't 01:09:20.740 --> 01:09:26.220 sick I just spontaneously was like my stomach is at capacity I was I was 01:09:26.220 --> 01:09:33.100 reading I was like reading and just eating potatoes yeah and I just threw 01:09:33.100 --> 01:09:37.700 up it was like it wasn't even like it wasn't the sickiest sickest most like 01:09:37.700 --> 01:09:43.300 foul throw up ever or anything it wasn't even that gross cuz I had just eaten all 01:09:43.300 --> 01:09:47.740 of it and it was just it was basically just potato like it was probably still 01:09:47.740 --> 01:10:00.500 edible I love I love this like way too perfect image I have in my head of this 01:10:00.540 --> 01:10:04.820 situation of you just being way too laser focused in on what you're doing to 01:10:04.820 --> 01:10:10.460 not realize that you've eaten like an entire massive massive bowl size of your 01:10:10.460 --> 01:10:19.420 entire torso thing of your body's just like bro get it out of here yeah ADHD 01:10:19.420 --> 01:10:22.940 turned up to 11 someone point out yeah that's all I'm all I'm picturing is 01:10:22.940 --> 01:10:28.620 just like I must keep reading and also this hand is just doing this motion for 01:10:28.620 --> 01:10:36.860 whatever reason that's great anyways back to evil things we don't 01:10:36.860 --> 01:10:41.780 unfortunately get to keep talking about potatoes yeah that I mean that sucks a 01:10:41.780 --> 01:10:45.740 lot there are alternatives again just like in the discord thing they're all 01:10:45.740 --> 01:10:50.900 there are alternatives in this range of products the alternative ends up being 01:10:50.900 --> 01:10:56.380 more expensive usually yeah but you shout out ubiquity I was just gonna do it 01:10:56.380 --> 01:11:01.620 there are also other alternatives that aren't ubiquity but you know in our kind 01:11:01.620 --> 01:11:06.140 of spaces a lot of people do do be like a new big witty hear me out true spec 01:11:06.140 --> 01:11:13.140 security camera partnered with flock oh gosh yeah no but like it's it's 01:11:13.140 --> 01:11:16.220 effectively gonna end up being self-hosting and through something like 01:11:16.220 --> 01:11:21.540 ubiquity or a variety of other products it's gotta be self-hosted you can do a 01:11:21.620 --> 01:11:27.100 self-hosted solution you can have your own cameras you could share them with 01:11:27.100 --> 01:11:31.020 with family members you could remotely access them when you're away from home 01:11:31.020 --> 01:11:34.500 you could use a lot of the same features you can literally do the like press the 01:11:34.500 --> 01:11:44.460 doorbell have a video call thing just without you know Amazon watching every 01:11:44.460 --> 01:11:50.540 move it is possible hey it'll cost more but it's a company if there was a 01:11:50.540 --> 01:11:56.420 company that you didn't have to feel like you were you know helping move us 01:11:56.420 --> 01:12:04.820 towards a dystopian future it would be create a warehouse we have we have a lot 01:12:04.820 --> 01:12:09.980 to talk about this week and the big one is the one that Luke is wearing dude 01:12:09.980 --> 01:12:14.260 it's kind of covered right now so maybe if you can give them a better look at it 01:12:14.420 --> 01:12:21.340 that thing is so flipping cool this is it this is the lawsuit hoodie this hoodie 01:12:21.340 --> 01:12:26.780 exists because three years of unanswered collab emails felt like a sign to stop 01:12:26.780 --> 01:12:31.980 waiting for permission and just make this white on black hoodie that we wanted 01:12:31.980 --> 01:12:37.540 to make anyway it's made from the same heavyweight 100% cotton as the wan 01:12:37.540 --> 01:12:42.580 hoodie so it feels thick premium and built for daily wear with ykk zippered 01:12:42.580 --> 01:12:47.740 pockets to keep your things secure the sleeves feature bold fully embroidered 01:12:47.740 --> 01:12:52.420 controller inspired graphics and there's a small Easter egg on the care label that 01:12:52.420 --> 01:12:56.540 is optional to read but highly recommended you want to bring up the 01:12:56.540 --> 01:13:02.820 website okay yeah don't don't worry about it don't worry about it let's see if 01:13:02.820 --> 01:13:07.460 people can figure out let's see if people can figure out what it was inspired 01:13:07.460 --> 01:13:12.540 by I will not confirm or deny because well I don't actually mean oh is it in 01:13:12.540 --> 01:13:19.020 there it's literally the first line of the description oh no that's that's not 01:13:19.020 --> 01:13:25.220 oh wait oh yeah okay well okay never mind we apparently went full not that 01:13:25.220 --> 01:13:35.620 subtle literally the brand name is like the third word okay cool well okay we 01:13:35.620 --> 01:13:40.220 weren't actually concerned about D brand in terms of like the look what we 01:13:40.220 --> 01:13:45.700 really wanted to do was a hoodie that looked like a thing and then in order 01:13:45.700 --> 01:13:50.740 to make sure that the iconography wasn't gonna cause any problems for us we 01:13:50.740 --> 01:13:58.060 partnered with D brand to use their iconography hmm it's a pretty cool product 01:13:58.060 --> 01:14:01.740 do you want to scroll through some of the some of the other pictures yeah I love 01:14:01.780 --> 01:14:06.060 the charade ones I think this is charade yeah yeah yeah the helmet on these 01:14:06.060 --> 01:14:10.660 looks yeah D brand Rome robot helmet I don't know where they found to do these 01:14:10.660 --> 01:14:15.300 photos but these are awesome I am continually impressed with the photos 01:14:15.300 --> 01:14:18.340 that are coming out of the steam this is all good I was hoping there's gonna be a 01:14:18.340 --> 01:14:23.220 good picture of this the zipper looks sick it's like blacked out and it has this 01:14:23.220 --> 01:14:28.900 like copper inner core it looks so dope I don't think I've seen that before I 01:14:29.180 --> 01:14:32.300 think it's yeah it's all of them even the smaller zippers that are on your 01:14:32.300 --> 01:14:36.500 pockets have this like copper inner design I think that looks it's it seems 01:14:36.500 --> 01:14:41.380 to be like a spring to kind of like keep it held down is that what the actual 01:14:41.380 --> 01:14:49.740 copper bit is doing I think so yeah but keep scrolling apparently the last 01:14:49.740 --> 01:14:53.180 picture is the bat the best one there's a lot of pictures for this I think they 01:14:53.180 --> 01:15:00.020 really liked the set that they were at because there is there's quite a few but 01:15:00.020 --> 01:15:07.100 we will we will keep going through them there's so many pictures there is a ton 01:15:07.100 --> 01:15:17.740 of photos nice that's a bit of a hint dude I I kind of love this hoodie when 01:15:17.740 --> 01:15:25.940 we got our first sample of it I was like sick this is amazing that's dope yeah 01:15:25.940 --> 01:15:32.780 I don't know where they were that's sick that's sick that's probably my favorite 01:15:32.780 --> 01:15:40.220 one hell yeah it's um here do you want to throw us back this one is dope yeah 01:15:40.220 --> 01:15:45.860 those are cool it's it's one of those things I think this is when our team is 01:15:46.500 --> 01:15:52.580 is like ah see I don't want to take anything away from the other things we do but this is 01:15:52.580 --> 01:15:57.060 the stuff that gets me uniquely excited like this is when I think the team is at 01:15:57.060 --> 01:16:06.220 their absolute best when they create something that is so sort of gamer culture 01:16:06.220 --> 01:16:14.100 like internet culture referencing and yet is so flipping wearable and if 01:16:14.100 --> 01:16:18.660 somebody doesn't know what it is if they don't know that it looks kind of like a 01:16:18.660 --> 01:16:24.740 you know game console or if they don't recognize those icons they're just like 01:16:24.740 --> 01:16:31.660 wow cool hoodie but if they do you know it's the if you know you know and I just 01:16:31.660 --> 01:16:38.580 I love stuff like that they absolutely yeah yeah Marchable they hit it

01:19:59.500 burlary it's a it's focused on the background put up your hands I'll fix 01:19:59.500 --> 01:20:01.580 it 01:20:04.580 --> 01:20:13.780 I'll try to fix it technology no for a very blurry line is you got a squint 01:20:13.780 --> 01:20:18.580 cameras in use by another application like yes I know that's the that's why I 01:20:18.580 --> 01:20:24.380 need to fix it I seriously I can't the Razor app doesn't let me change the 01:20:24.380 --> 01:20:35.060 focus if it I love technology how about a message oh now you're worse yeah yeah 01:20:35.060 --> 01:20:41.500 oh we're good yeah

show you how to calm works auto focus is disabled doing my goodness 01:20:53.020 --> 01:21:05.460 oh no no put on your glasses just okay okay I went on DLL I was wondering 01:21:05.460 --> 01:21:11.500 about how you chose the colors of LTT Store items is there some science to it 01:21:11.500 --> 01:21:17.020 is it purely vibes and why not just make the same product in more colors 01:21:17.020 --> 01:21:23.820 especially apparel I can answer the more colors part more colors are more 01:21:23.820 --> 01:21:27.820 skews and that can get that can get pretty rough on certain things especially 01:21:27.820 --> 01:21:31.820 when there's a lot of sizes so like if you look at I'm gonna bring up on screen 01:21:31.820 --> 01:21:37.500 our our cleanup wizard t-shirt so if we added another color here we don't add 01:21:37.500 --> 01:21:43.720 one product we add six products because we add a red one of this in small and 01:21:43.720 --> 01:21:46.840 medium and large and extra large and extra extra large and extra extra extra 01:21:46.840 --> 01:21:52.120 large and you can extrapolate that quite a bit sometimes like the pants the 01:21:52.120 --> 01:21:58.120 pants can be pretty brutal for this if I go to let me go navigate through the 01:21:58.120 --> 01:22:02.080 store real quick we have he's gonna keep working on his blurs I'm not worried 01:22:02.080 --> 01:22:07.600 about you seeing him I'm gonna go over to this one the city set go to the new 01:22:07.600 --> 01:22:12.640 pants that we have that are awesome now you have two different inseam lengths to 01:22:12.640 --> 01:22:19.200 a crazy amount of way sizes and color so you've got all the way sizes times two 01:22:19.200 --> 01:22:22.920 times the amount of colors and the amount of products you have to keep in 01:22:22.920 --> 01:22:29.520 stock just goes whoop so usually try to keep it kind of dialed down now there's 01:22:29.520 --> 01:22:34.800 a bit of a research portion to selling things as well where we put these pants 01:22:34.800 --> 01:22:41.400 on sale we've got the regular we've got the tall we've got these all these different way sizes if these sell super well that might inform us that the 01:22:41.400 --> 01:22:46.160 pants are good and maybe some people might like additional colors then we 01:22:46.160 --> 01:22:50.600 could expand from there but if these just sell like kind of okay then maybe we 01:22:50.600 --> 01:22:56.640 don't want to add a bunch of colors because maybe people like the pants enough but they don't like them enough to have to buy more in a bunch of 01:22:56.640 --> 01:23:03.000 different colors so yeah t-shirts have a bit of an easier time with this because 01:23:03.000 --> 01:23:07.280 you can have a bunch of blanks in a range of colors and then print the shirts 01:23:07.280 --> 01:23:12.880 onto the blanks but then even that's not like a perfect answer hopefully I did 01:23:12.880 --> 01:23:17.960 justice to that question for the cw people I know there was another part to 01:23:17.960 --> 01:23:23.960 that how do you pick the colors yesh there's a very low percentage chance 01:23:23.960 --> 01:23:27.280 that I can answer this accurately Linus might know decently well but he has 01:23:27.280 --> 01:23:33.400 faded into the void he's gone so I'm gonna give it a shot cw people I'm sorry 01:23:33.400 --> 01:23:38.520 if I fail you but I think they they look at trends they look at upcoming trends 01:23:38.520 --> 01:23:42.680 they look at general fashion stuff and just try to look at the different types 01:23:42.680 --> 01:23:48.520 of colors that people are into moving forward and try to keep us matched with 01:23:48.520 --> 01:23:57.160 said trends now we do tend to fall into a bit of a category of tech nerd and 01:23:57.440 --> 01:24:04.600 generic tech nerd do tend to like black shirt so black shirt with printing on it 01:24:04.600 --> 01:24:10.320 does often end up being a way that we go but I also think that they're trying to 01:24:10.320 --> 01:24:16.440 have fun with stuff they want to have fun jobs they want you to have more interesting clothing I support it so every once in a while we get stuff like 01:24:16.440 --> 01:24:21.520 the pixel heart shirt which is it's like crazy red I didn't sell the teddy 01:24:21.520 --> 01:24:24.960 fleece jacket which is pretty wild colors that one is pretty good people love 01:24:24.960 --> 01:24:30.600 that one I really like the RGB sweater I really think people look really sharp 01:24:30.600 --> 01:24:35.120 in this I think I've told the story like a million times but is anyone supposed 01:24:35.120 --> 01:24:39.720 to be able to see what you're showing I can show that now this is the RGB sweater 01:24:39.720 --> 01:24:43.760 this is a non-black it's actually it's a it's a dark like I don't know if you 01:24:43.760 --> 01:24:48.840 call it navy but it's a dark blue with like like basically color-flexing 01:24:48.840 --> 01:24:54.080 throughout it I didn't know this was our product for a while I sat down at a 01:24:54.120 --> 01:24:57.200 conference next to Teran and he was wearing it and I was like oh wow it's a 01:24:57.200 --> 01:25:01.800 really nice sweater it looks good on you I had no clue it was ours that's hilarious 01:25:01.800 --> 01:25:06.880 I think it looks really sharp I think like when you look like this photo I 01:25:06.880 --> 01:25:10.800 think is a really good representation of just like you wear a decent pair of 01:25:10.800 --> 01:25:13.880 pants you feel this on top of it and you look very professional while wearing a 01:25:13.880 --> 01:25:19.040 sweater it's cool but with a touch of fun yeah 100% yep it's cool okay next 01:25:19.040 --> 01:25:26.040 question thanks for stalling no problem let's see hopefully my guess is on those 01:25:26.040 --> 01:25:29.720 answers were at least decently accurate I didn't hear them because I had to leave 01:25:29.720 --> 01:25:34.280 the room okay yeah in order to open up the application in order to put it back 01:25:34.280 --> 01:25:41.600 to manual focus which it was still on but just alright I did my good oh great 01:25:41.600 --> 01:25:45.640 I started Claire obscure a week or so ago and I'm really enjoying it Linus 01:25:45.680 --> 01:25:50.760 talks about jrpgs a lot are there any other modern ones with some a RPG 01:25:50.760 --> 01:25:55.520 elements I should check out love the show thanks guys I'm the last person to go 01:25:55.520 --> 01:26:01.040 to for game recommendations because a I tend to be like kind of basic like I 01:26:01.040 --> 01:26:09.120 just play what I know I'm probably gonna like and be I don't get a chance to play 01:26:09.120 --> 01:26:13.840 a ton of games so I don't really get to go off the beaten path much like like 01:26:13.840 --> 01:26:17.880 what am I supposed to say yeah Expedition 33 was really good did you 01:26:17.880 --> 01:26:27.160 really need me to tell you that swept the game awards right like it's you 01:26:27.160 --> 01:26:33.120 don't take don't take my word for it at that point right yeah I I I love 01:26:33.120 --> 01:26:39.520 crosscode it's it's probably is it my isn't my favorite modern JRPG the 01:26:39.520 --> 01:26:44.440 characters are so incredible if you haven't played it already go play it 01:26:44.440 --> 01:26:48.240 but it's more of like a pixel art style that I'm personally really into and I 01:26:48.240 --> 01:26:52.560 just I haven't I haven't played that many modern ones I did finish Expedition 33 01:26:52.560 --> 01:26:56.760 since last WAN Show so if we want to talk about it at all we can but Luke 01:26:56.760 --> 01:27:00.200 hasn't played and I don't think Dan's playing so there's not really gonna be 01:27:00.200 --> 01:27:06.000 much for me to say other than yeah it's really good without getting into stuff 01:27:06.000 --> 01:27:10.640 that would involve serious spoilers for people who in chat and on the show who 01:27:10.640 --> 01:27:17.880 might actually play it at some point you know okay it's one one small thing I 01:27:17.880 --> 01:27:22.040 know on the store that we're advertising like the polo and the tech pants 01:27:22.040 --> 01:27:28.880 together and this this might be me being RGB sweater pilled but I think the tech 01:27:28.880 --> 01:27:32.120 pants and nice belt and RGB sweater would go really well together I'm just 01:27:32.160 --> 01:27:38.360 gonna put that out there before we move on thanks Luke count to me for future 01:27:38.360 --> 01:27:42.960 fashion advice next topic YouTube react videos could face lawsuits but not for 01:27:42.960 --> 01:27:47.360 the reason you think a lawsuit has been filed between two creators for reaction 01:27:47.360 --> 01:27:51.960 based content the catch one channel is filing the lawsuit against the other for 01:27:51.960 --> 01:27:57.680 the way the react content was acquired oh interesting Christopher Cordova the 01:27:57.680 --> 01:28:01.960 individual who filed the suit is stating that the footage that was acquired with 01:28:02.120 --> 01:28:06.640 out their permission was ripped using ripping tools that bypass YouTube's 01:28:06.640 --> 01:28:10.720 technical protections which they claim is in violation of the digital 01:28:10.720 --> 01:28:15.480 millennium copyright actor DMCA Torrent freak stepped in to defend Jonathan 01:28:15.480 --> 01:28:20.080 who note hopefully I said that right the individual being sued saying that there 01:28:20.080 --> 01:28:24.600 is no way Cordova could prove that's what I was kind of thinking or no ripping 01:28:24.600 --> 01:28:28.240 tools are being used stating that for years many react creators simply record 01:28:28.240 --> 01:28:31.280 their screen instead of ripping the content that's yeah that this is very 01:28:31.320 --> 01:28:36.480 difficult to prove Judge Demarchi did not immediately throw out the case which 01:28:36.480 --> 01:28:39.800 has raised concerns in the react community because if this case goes 01:28:39.800 --> 01:28:43.240 through it could have effects down the line for all react type content that 01:28:43.240 --> 01:28:51.040 would be I mean a very interesting to summarize this isn't a question of fair 01:28:51.040 --> 01:28:56.160 use Judge Demarchi has acknowledged this as fair use but what calls into 01:28:56.160 --> 01:29:03.040 question is the way react footage is obtained how are you supposed to how 01:29:03.040 --> 01:29:10.280 would you prove how you got it like what would what would hypothetically what 01:29:10.280 --> 01:29:15.240 would that look like to you dude I have no idea I mean the discussion question 01:29:15.240 --> 01:29:20.840 here is how the is anyone ever going to prove how people obtained footage I'll 01:29:20.840 --> 01:29:30.480 just cut it out of the video if I leak the file name yeah I have no idea I 01:29:30.480 --> 01:29:35.720 don't think you can really prove this but then what does it make result none in 01:29:35.720 --> 01:29:40.640 my opinion but would that result in if you can't prove that you got the 01:29:40.640 --> 01:29:45.200 footage like ethically then you can't do it at all or would it go the other way 01:29:45.200 --> 01:29:49.480 around I don't know I don't even think it's a question of ethically though it's 01:29:49.480 --> 01:29:54.000 a question of whether you circumvented a digital lock effectively right but then 01:29:54.000 --> 01:30:00.080 is screen capturing screen yeah not the same thing is that not a ripping tool 01:30:00.080 --> 01:30:05.000 anyway that that's where I and I'm to be clear I'm not even taking a side on this 01:30:05.000 --> 01:30:10.520 one I'm just I don't know what you do about this questions you're not gonna be 01:30:10.520 --> 01:30:17.200 able to prove it and like you said what difference does it make yeah I don't I 01:30:17.240 --> 01:30:21.760 don't understand why we're even having this conversation because I don't 01:30:21.760 --> 01:30:29.360 understand the difference I don't know okay in that case let's not even let's 01:30:29.360 --> 01:30:34.360 not even bother let's talk instead about something okay it doesn't happen 01:30:34.360 --> 01:30:39.680 necessarily that often but something pretty cool that the Canadian province of 01:30:39.720 --> 01:30:47.320 KBAC has done they have a new consumer protection act which is all in 01:30:47.320 --> 01:30:52.800 French so bad news everyone but that's okay because we'll figure we'll sort it 01:30:52.800 --> 01:31:02.000 out for you but basically they had some planned obsolescence safeguards that were 01:31:02.000 --> 01:31:06.960 passed back in 2023 that are finally going to come into full effect October 01:31:06.960 --> 01:31:15.280 5th of this year that are pretty cool for starters increased minimum warranty 01:31:15.280 --> 01:31:20.920 periods on consumer electronics and appliances from three years on laptops 01:31:20.920 --> 01:31:27.040 at desktops tablets cell phones and game consoles all the way to six years on 01:31:27.040 --> 01:31:35.400 large appliances like stoves and refrigerators that is kind of awesome the 01:31:35.440 --> 01:31:39.560 next line is also awesome like okay hold on let's let's talk about this okay 01:31:39.560 --> 01:31:47.040 like why is it that three years is not already standard for an Xbox that's 01:31:47.040 --> 01:31:52.800 crazy yeah I like this a lot I do suspect that this will result in products 01:31:52.800 --> 01:31:58.520 being just more expensive in Quebec yes but I think this would be cool if it was 01:31:58.520 --> 01:32:03.880 a standard basically everywhere this this like we're I think we talked about 01:32:04.160 --> 01:32:08.200 like a couple weeks ago but there's this whole idea that like even refrigerator 01:32:08.200 --> 01:32:11.440 repair people are like yeah you don't bother keep your refrigerator after five 01:32:11.440 --> 01:32:15.640 years it's just garbage is like that's crazy this is now e-waste on a totally 01:32:15.640 --> 01:32:19.640 different level dude like when it's phones and stuff like that that sucks 01:32:19.640 --> 01:32:23.960 obviously e-waste in general is unfortunate but like we're throwing out 01:32:23.960 --> 01:32:29.040 washers and dryers and refrigerators and dishwashers as if they're you know 01:32:29.080 --> 01:32:36.240 phone cycle replacements like this is bad not good I've got people asking 01:32:36.240 --> 01:32:41.960 listen to an Xbox already a three-year warranty no this is a like five I mean 01:32:41.960 --> 01:32:45.160 what's the Xbox up to I was gonna say $500 device but it's gone up in price 01:32:45.160 --> 01:32:54.040 like this is an expensive item that has a one-year warranty yeah okay the next 01:32:54.040 --> 01:32:58.320 one warranties follow the product for the full term of the warranty 01:32:58.600 --> 01:33:03.560 regardless of whether the item is resold this is just such common sense it's 01:33:03.560 --> 01:33:09.560 just so obvious what something this this water bottle that isn't a rule magically 01:33:09.560 --> 01:33:14.360 might not last as long if I sell it to Luke what are you talking about insane 01:33:14.360 --> 01:33:23.320 alright next used cars and motorcycles also get automatic warranty coverage 01:33:23.320 --> 01:33:28.360 depending on the age of the vehicle and mileage Jordan says I think this is 01:33:28.360 --> 01:33:31.760 dealers only but it's not clear in the translation that one's a little tough I 01:33:31.760 --> 01:33:38.600 don't know how that works but I like the gusto yep additionally all goods bought 01:33:38.600 --> 01:33:43.000 or leased must be able to serve their normal purpose for a reasonable length 01:33:43.000 --> 01:33:47.320 of time the law also prohibits the use of techniques that make it more difficult 01:33:47.320 --> 01:33:51.360 to maintain and repair goods and aims to guarantee the availability of spare 01:33:51.360 --> 01:33:57.480 parts and repair services based retailers must inform customers of their 01:33:57.480 --> 01:34:01.320 minimum warranty coverage under the law before trying to sell any extended 01:34:01.320 --> 01:34:06.280 warranties based so basically that's a really good last line actually because 01:34:06.280 --> 01:34:11.200 people might not be aware that this change happened yep that's a very good 01:34:11.200 --> 01:34:14.440 very good addition whoever was like hmm we might actually want to add something 01:34:14.440 --> 01:34:18.240 to this that was smart good job David and I David and I did another one of those 01:34:18.240 --> 01:34:22.520 fun Linus and David just go and buy something yes ventures nice we went to 01:34:22.520 --> 01:34:28.080 Costco to buy a desktop and we had a really cool experience with that from 01:34:28.080 --> 01:34:32.280 one of the reps there that is not going to be able to appear on camera because 01:34:32.280 --> 01:34:35.880 we didn't call ahead and get permission to film at Costco we just kind of showed 01:34:35.880 --> 01:34:39.160 up and we're like well we're buying a computer and we're gonna roll on some 01:34:39.160 --> 01:34:45.040 metaglasses and good luck everybody by the way apologies in advance David has 01:34:45.040 --> 01:34:49.440 never shot anything on metaglasses before and he's a very active 01:34:49.440 --> 01:34:55.480 conversationalist so the footage might be a little shaky sometimes David was 01:34:55.480 --> 01:35:00.520 like the king of of interacting with with the with the host from behind the 01:35:00.520 --> 01:35:05.360 camera you know that right yeah like he just like he can't help it he's just a 01:35:05.360 --> 01:35:10.200 very active listener he's a very he's a very engaged personality and these are 01:35:10.200 --> 01:35:15.920 all good things as long as you're not a human tripod so anyway but yeah it was 01:35:15.920 --> 01:35:26.280 really fun and we we had a really great experience where the the representative 01:35:26.280 --> 01:35:29.760 which I didn't even know like Luke did you know that Costco had like someone 01:35:29.760 --> 01:35:34.560 who works in the electronics department to like talk to you about computers no 01:35:34.560 --> 01:35:39.880 yeah it's a thing so we talked to the guy and he gives us a little you know 01:35:39.880 --> 01:35:45.880 like pro tip that if you don't tell the motherboard manufacturer for instance 01:35:45.880 --> 01:35:49.880 that it was part of a complete system it may very well have a longer three year 01:35:49.880 --> 01:35:53.400 warranty on it and same with you know things like memory they often have a 01:35:53.400 --> 01:35:58.360 lifetime warranty on it so yes it has you know a Costco extended two year 01:35:58.360 --> 01:36:02.880 warranty so they they do an extra year I believe on computer systems compared to 01:36:02.880 --> 01:36:06.280 if you buy those systems elsewhere which I thought was a pretty good value add but 01:36:06.280 --> 01:36:09.320 he was like and you might even be able to get more and it's the kind of thing 01:36:09.440 --> 01:36:13.280 that makes you feel really good as a consumer like the sales rep is no it's 01:36:13.280 --> 01:36:17.840 awesome there to help you and guide you and inform you rather than there to 01:36:17.840 --> 01:36:21.560 extract your money and it was just such a positive experience and that's wicked 01:36:21.560 --> 01:36:27.800 to have that enshrined in law I guess I wish it wasn't necessary but I'm glad 01:36:27.800 --> 01:36:31.800 that it is and I would love to see I'd love to see this expand I did see 01:36:31.800 --> 01:36:36.920 someone in the chat saying yeah there's already brands that are that are looking 01:36:36.920 --> 01:36:41.240 to pull out of Quebec because of this but I think the answer is not for Quebec 01:36:41.240 --> 01:36:46.320 to back down the answer is for everyone else to step up that will give more 01:36:46.320 --> 01:36:51.840 opportunity and more sales attention to brands that don't yeah which is awesome 01:36:51.840 --> 01:36:54.920 now it's time to give some attention to the brands who sponsored the show today 01:36:54.920 --> 01:37:00.400 nice we received some new chairs on the WAN Show set that Razor sent over I 01:37:00.400 --> 01:37:05.960 unfortunately I'm not sitting on one of them I'm sitting on a hardbacked wooden 01:37:06.000 --> 01:37:09.840 chair that has my butt completely asleep but if I was sitting on one of them 01:37:09.840 --> 01:37:15.640 then I would tell you these are their new isker v2 new gen chairs the leather on 01:37:15.640 --> 01:37:19.480 these now comes with Razor's cool touch technology to

gaming working or podcasting more 01:37:29.800 --> 01:37:33.800 comfortable whether you like to sit upright or you have the posture of a 01:37:33.840 --> 01:37:39.280 slug their Hyperflex lumbar system adjusts 360 degrees to find an angle that 01:37:39.280 --> 01:37:43.680 works for you and the headrest comes with memory foam cushions that are 01:37:43.680 --> 01:37:49.360 designed to fit the curvature of your neck the armrests can be moved up down 01:37:49.360 --> 01:37:53.600 side to side and can even shift the angle that they sit at and you can grab 01:37:53.600 --> 01:37:58.120 one of these for yourself today by checking out Razor's new isker v2 new 01:37:58.120 --> 01:38:04.200 gen chair at the link in the video description I can say with 100% the 01:38:04.200 --> 01:38:09.040 sponsor read is over honesty that I wish I was sitting on that chair right now 01:38:09.040 --> 01:38:13.720 this thing sucks so much sometimes a wooden chair can actually be really 01:38:13.720 -->

you want to pick another topic? Sure. 01:39:31.480 --> 01:39:34.720 Do you want to talk about anchor? This really came up when we were talking about 01:39:34.720 --> 01:39:39.600 the sponsors that we've kicked to the curb. It sure did. No notes. Anchor, 01:39:39.600 --> 01:39:44.240 Yuffie, Soundcore. Anchor, Yuffie, Soundcore, Context. Anchor used to be our 01:39:44.240 --> 01:39:47.280 biggest partner did they? Our biggest partner? I don't think that's right. 01:39:47.360 --> 01:39:53.440 Yeah. Is that right? I think so. I'm gonna message Colton right now. 01:39:55.600 --> 01:40:02.640 They used to be a sizable partner that we had maybe the biggest one. I didn't think 01:40:02.640 --> 01:40:06.560 that would have been right but I message Colton and Steve and I will find out. 01:40:06.560 --> 01:40:11.360 Fake news in the WAN duck and we dropped them because of a fiasco with Yuffie 01:40:11.360 --> 01:40:15.360 where their cameras weren't encrypted and they tried to lie and got caught and it 01:40:15.360 --> 01:40:19.840 did get resolved but it was weird and took a long time and they still had us on their website 01:40:19.840 --> 01:40:22.080 for like months and months and months and months and months and months but 01:40:23.840 --> 01:40:27.440 we want to work with them again so Linus wants to suss this out. 01:40:28.720 --> 01:40:32.640 Okay I just heard back from Colton. He says yes they were our biggest partner 01:40:33.440 --> 01:40:42.240 2020 era. Oh man. Yeah so they messaged me earlier today and basically Colton's like 01:40:42.240 --> 01:40:46.720 hey we want to work with them again. Specifically on the anchor and soundcore brands 01:40:46.720 --> 01:40:51.920 are we fine engaging with them? We dropped them many years ago because of the whole debacle. 01:40:52.560 --> 01:40:58.960 I'd like to bring up for a moment that I'm so tired of people calling our integrity as a company 01:40:58.960 --> 01:41:04.880 into question when we have done stuff like this like unflinchingly without hesitation. 01:41:04.880 --> 01:41:09.280 Apparently they were our biggest partner. Literally didn't matter. We did it anyway. 01:41:10.240 --> 01:41:19.280 Cool let's move on. I think the big question here is put very succinctly by night author 01:41:19.280 --> 01:41:26.480 in the Floatplane chat. Any reason to believe that they have changed? That's a good question. 01:41:27.040 --> 01:41:34.080 I think that's the question and I have to be honest with you. They did eventually resolve 01:41:34.080 --> 01:41:43.840 the eufy thing. I still have no interest in engaging with the eufy brand. I didn't like 01:41:44.480 --> 01:41:50.160 the way that they deflected like if the eufy thing had happened and then they had immediately 01:41:50.960 --> 01:41:56.960 owned it and taken steps. I'm not about people being defined by their mistakes. To me you're 01:41:57.680 --> 01:42:07.520 defined by how you respond to them. They did eventually. Initially they just deflected and 01:42:07.520 --> 01:42:11.280 completely not apologized. Yes they did eventually. It was like ages later. 01:42:13.680 --> 01:42:21.440 That was my problem. That was why we ultimately were like well see ya. And Andre B says okay well 01:42:21.440 --> 01:42:27.760 how do you prove now that they're trustworthy? So I think that's why Colton is talking specifically 01:42:27.760 --> 01:42:33.200 about the anchor and the soundcore brands rather than even bringing up eufy with me. 01:42:33.200 --> 01:42:42.240 Because no I just don't think that I would be comfortable with a eufy product at this point. 01:42:42.320 --> 01:42:52.560 But like look this is one of those things where when we dropped them it did create a ton of 01:42:52.560 --> 01:42:57.120 confusion because I was very explicit from the start. I said look we're just not going to 01:42:57.120 --> 01:43:00.640 take their money. That doesn't mean I'm going to stop using their products. Like check this out. 01:43:02.720 --> 01:43:16.320 Hold on I'm up one sec. Literally right now. Literally right now. I am plugged in. I mean I mean an anchor power brick. 01:43:16.320 --> 01:43:22.080 I mean there's also this. Oh hold on I can't see it. One of the more recent articles on the 01:43:22.080 --> 01:43:27.040 lab's website is testing an anchor nano charger. Yeah we never said we weren't going to cover them. 01:43:27.040 --> 01:43:31.360 We never said we weren't going to use the products. We just said that we weren't going to take their 01:43:31.360 --> 01:43:38.240 money. And I think the question is have they done enough for us to change that? 01:43:43.440 --> 01:43:47.600 Yeah I'm just looking at a lot of. Oh does the Verge require a subscription now? 01:43:47.600 --> 01:43:53.680 Interesting. For some articles not all. Apparently their eufy blames the software update and promises 01:43:53.760 --> 01:44:02.960 to do better article is behind one of those. And I mean I don't know it's been five years. 01:44:02.960 --> 01:44:09.200 How long do we have to put someone in sponsor jail for? Like I think it's I think it's. 01:44:10.320 --> 01:44:17.040 It was um. Oh man. Was it actually 2020? I think it was like 2022-2023 or something. 01:44:17.040 --> 01:44:20.640 A lot of the stuff I'm finding online about this is from 2023. 01:44:21.280 --> 01:44:27.040 Yeah okay can you okay. Oh no Colton so sorry Colton said 2020 they were like they were our 01:44:27.040 --> 01:44:30.640 biggest partner in 2020. Got it. Okay. 01:44:36.800 --> 01:44:43.120 Trying to remember um I'm trying to remember who it was. There was uh was it techbrew? 01:44:43.680 --> 01:44:52.720 That uh made that really good point about not uh not just like if if a company makes a mistake 01:44:52.720 --> 01:44:59.600 not just putting them in jail forever like at some point if they rectify the issue then 01:45:00.160 --> 01:45:03.760 no it wasn't techbrew who was it? Luke do you remember? No I don't know. 01:45:04.480 --> 01:45:08.000 Oh shoot it was on it was on there like it was on their podcast or something. 01:45:08.880 --> 01:45:14.720 Anyway it was a good point. Ah yeah ImSys says I personally haven't 01:45:14.720 --> 01:45:18.000 bought any anchor or other their brand products since the Eufy news. 01:45:21.680 --> 01:45:26.960 Blaze Henry says don't forget that anchor also has issues with exploding power bank recalls 01:45:26.960 --> 01:45:35.120 like every few months. Is that true though? I know there were some bad cells that a number 01:45:35.120 --> 01:45:43.280 of battery bank manufacturers got um got burned by pun intended so let's just be very 01:45:43.280 --> 01:45:47.120 let's be sure that that was actually an anchor specific issue. 01:45:50.880 --> 01:45:54.560 Zen Foxon says there's an apology all that was needed I'd want more assurance than that I mean 01:45:54.560 --> 01:46:00.000 yeah that's that's very fair especially when you got gas lit the first time before the apology was 01:46:00.000 --> 01:46:08.560 issued. The mighty reptar says yeah don't put flock on your bad list forever I mean that oh 01:46:08.560 --> 01:46:12.960 yeah see that's a tough one because that is and that is a situation where I'd say yeah they're 01:46:12.960 --> 01:46:16.800 on the bad list forever I don't see how there would be any redemption there. Yeah so I'm reading 01:46:16.800 --> 01:46:20.320 this Verge article because I'm kind of like my memory's not that great so I'm trying to 01:46:20.320 --> 01:46:25.680 recall what happened here and the Verge article opens with first anchor told us it was impossible 01:46:25.680 --> 01:46:30.320 then it covered its tracks then it repeatedly deflected while utterly ignoring your emails 01:46:30.320 --> 01:46:35.120 so shortly before christmas we gave the company an ultimatum if anchor wouldn't answer why it 01:46:35.120 --> 01:46:40.640 supposedly always encrypted ufy cameras were producing unencrypted streams among other questions 01:46:40.640 --> 01:46:45.600 we would publish a story about the company's lack of answers it worked so they had to get like 01:46:47.440 --> 01:46:57.360 dirty like ethically blackmailed yes into into doing the right thing which is like you know like you said it's been years 01:46:57.360 --> 01:47:03.760 isn't in that many years but like maybe people involved with this are gone I don't know but 01:47:03.760 --> 01:47:08.960 just an apology after that level of like trying to cover up something actually very serious is 01:47:12.880 --> 01:47:17.440 a little sketch I might I might like a little bit more I don't know what that more would be 01:47:18.000 --> 01:47:21.920 I think the bigger question for me from the business team is why do we need to do this 01:47:22.720 --> 01:47:27.920 is there just some other is there some other power company that we could just work with instead 01:47:31.280 --> 01:47:35.600 because of my annoyance with this thing I have I don't know if I've even talked to you about this 01:47:35.600 --> 01:47:39.600 but I have personally I know they're a sponsor of ours but on a personal level I've switched to 01:47:39.680 --> 01:47:45.440 ugreen I've bought ugreen things lately yeah I bought four ugreen power 01:47:48.000 --> 01:47:54.000 wall warts recently just so that the kids will not lose theirs so they have like travel travel 01:47:54.000 --> 01:48:00.640 ones when I was traveling I bought a family set power bank which has been great I more recently 01:48:00.640 --> 01:48:06.160 bought a ugreen wall wart which has been great I also haven't used this yet so I can't comment on it 01:48:06.240 --> 01:48:15.440 but I bought one of their usb to 3.5 millimeter cables which has a bluetooth chip in the usb plug 01:48:15.440 --> 01:48:20.080 so it just looks like a usb to 3.5 mil but it basically adds bluetooth to your car it powers 01:48:20.080 --> 01:48:24.560 the bluetooth over the usb and then it gives the audio over 3.5 it looks cool I haven't used it yet 01:48:24.560 --> 01:48:31.040 though um yeah I don't know but I that being said I don't necessarily know that they need the biggest 01:48:31.040 --> 01:48:34.560 reason if they think the company has actually moved on it's just this was like a pretty big deal 01:48:35.200 --> 01:48:42.240 so yeah I I'm I'm interested in how like what what do they what did they do so okay maybe they said 01:48:42.240 --> 01:48:49.200 like sorry that we lied and then covered up and then deflected and then got blackmailed into saying 01:48:49.200 --> 01:48:54.960 the truth um but what did they what do they do about that do they do they do some form of action 01:48:54.960 --> 01:49:00.400 to follow up and I think this requires more digging personally that's my stance I know the 01:49:00.400 --> 01:49:04.320 goal was to ask the audience not me um but that's that's where I'm at 01:49:08.080 --> 01:49:15.920 why don't we pencil it in for 2027 and how about anchor has a really good year and doesn't screw 01:49:15.920 --> 01:49:26.960 anything up and we revisit in 2027 does that make sense partially I need to go look into the apology 01:49:26.960 --> 01:49:32.400 that they gave because I don't know what they said um and I'd like to know what they did like 01:49:32.400 --> 01:49:36.960 somebody said we need heads on sticks and it's like to a certain degree this was like actually 01:49:36.960 --> 01:49:45.040 unacceptable but again uh you know things change times change people change etc especially a company 01:49:45.040 --> 01:49:49.920 staff changes what was it we heard a stat recently like most people stay at a company for two years 01:49:50.640 --> 01:49:58.960 it's been more than that now um so there could be like a very significant level of turnover for 01:49:58.960 --> 01:50:04.640 the people involved in that uh and yeah you know maybe we're good to go maybe by the by the time 01:50:04.640 --> 01:50:11.840 we're 2027 like you said uh based on statistics a huge portion of that company will have turned over 01:50:11.840 --> 01:50:17.520 maybe second chance is fine but yeah I I think paying attention to what they do in that period 01:50:18.240 --> 01:50:23.280 of time would be really good and paying attention to the ways they communicate and hopefully here's 01:50:23.280 --> 01:50:28.960 a weird take hopefully they have some form of problem so you can see how they deal with it 01:50:29.600 --> 01:50:36.400 Gergy 008 says they also promised a microsite that we never got focusing on security 01:50:38.400 --> 01:50:46.480 interesting okay I think this requires more digging and needs to dig more I'm gonna I'm gonna 01:50:48.240 --> 01:50:53.840 flag that I'm on a new laptop I haven't pinned snipping tool to my taskbar yet 01:50:55.040 --> 01:50:59.120 they also have to remember they're a huge company even y'all have communication issues at your size 01:50:59.120 --> 01:51:05.760 even bigger has got to be worse I as far as my understanding goes it gets a lot worse but 01:51:05.760 --> 01:51:16.400 this is kind of a different level of problem in my opinion okay um I think we need some more 01:51:16.400 --> 01:51:30.720 answers about how they've really changed also this um let's pencil in for 2027 but they need to 01:51:33.280 --> 01:51:35.760 demonstrate in some way that they are 01:51:38.560 --> 01:51:45.280 culture hot take if it takes this much digging to determine if an answer should be yes maybe the answer should be no 90% of who sees these spots isn't going to be doing the 01:51:45.280 --> 01:51:50.240 digging I understand the take that you're trying to make but I don't yeah agree personally but the 01:51:50.240 --> 01:51:56.000 flip side of it is that most people are just buying a battery like a wall wart or a battery bank 01:51:56.000 --> 01:52:02.080 and like we just we just did that Labs article on an anchor wall wart that was just like a random 01:52:02.080 --> 01:52:06.560 side quest that Lucas was interested in like it had nothing to do with this conversation that 01:52:06.560 --> 01:52:12.240 Colton's bringing up with me and it's like a good wall wart and so like why should we 01:52:14.880 --> 01:52:21.600 why should we not say yeah this is a good wall wart um and get sponsorship dollars for it and 01:52:21.600 --> 01:52:27.840 then someone buys a good wall wart and then they enjoy their wall wart like I just yeah yes and also no 01:52:30.400 --> 01:52:34.320 the only thing I hate about OMG is their indifference to crowdsource carriers 01:52:34.640 --> 01:52:39.760 what what are crowdsourced carriers are crowdsourced carriers 01:52:51.840 --> 01:52:55.040 like uh like like like like like for shipping 01:52:58.320 --> 01:53:03.760 uh like uber but for parcels what sorry what does this have to do with our indifference 01:53:04.400 --> 01:53:07.920 I this is the first I've heard of it and also 01:53:11.680 --> 01:53:18.080 I'd need to look into this a lot more I'm so I feel so out of left field uh yeah indifference 01:53:18.080 --> 01:53:23.840 incoming no like we I mean we've we've talked in defense of them a lot on wanshow I don't I 01:53:23.840 --> 01:53:28.880 genuinely don't know what you're talking about but any crowdsourced carriers yeah we have remember 01:53:28.880 --> 01:53:33.200 we had a topic not that long ago we both got duped on it because it was like some AI slop thing but 01:53:33.760 --> 01:53:39.360 we were talking about how uber and all these different places are like often mistreating 01:53:39.360 --> 01:53:43.280 their drivers they don't get paid very much we've talked on wanshow about how like at a certain 01:53:43.280 --> 01:53:51.360 degree you're exchanging the value of your car for short term money um the the fact that they're 01:53:51.360 --> 01:53:55.520 like little mini individual corporations like hurts their ability to get things like health 01:53:55.520 --> 01:53:59.520 insurance and how it's it doesn't probably get flagged as not being employed even though a lot 01:53:59.520 --> 01:54:03.840 of cases effectively is like we've talked about this stuff before so yeah I don't think that's 01:54:03.840 --> 01:54:07.600 quite what they're talking about though I think they meant like crowdsourced carriers like like 01:54:07.600 --> 01:54:12.960 like instead of FedEx or something am I am I maybe I'm missing something here I don't know I have no 01:54:12.960 --> 01:54:22.000 idea okay all right cool well either way uh that's neat should we should we move on I think I'm I 01:54:22.000 --> 01:54:25.040 think I'm ready to leave it there I kicked it back to the business team to do a bit more 01:54:25.120 --> 01:54:30.960 investigation and I think that one way or another this is still a little fresh and we can we can 01:54:30.960 --> 01:54:36.960 pencil it in for 2027 as long as they don't screw anything else up this year and as long as they 01:54:37.760 --> 01:54:43.520 you know tell us what exactly it is that they've done to show that their culture has moved beyond 01:54:43.520 --> 01:54:48.880 this behavior sounds good no notes google lets you remove explicit images and other personal 01:54:48.880 --> 01:54:54.240 info from search results google launched a tool to request removal of non-consensual explicit 01:54:54.240 --> 01:55:00.240 images from search results users click the three dots on the image on the image result and select 01:55:00.240 --> 01:55:09.600 remove result okay yeah requests are trackable through google's results about you hub which also 01:55:11.200 --> 01:55:17.120 expanded to let users submit government id numbers for monitoring major caveat is you have to give 01:55:17.120 --> 01:55:23.200 google your data first yeah I knew that and it only removes the results from google search not 01:55:23.200 --> 01:55:28.880 from the internet itself well yeah it's something which means crawlers are still gonna get it and 01:55:28.880 --> 01:55:34.560 crawlers are the thing that's becoming more common for google search the one thing that's kind of cool 01:55:35.280 --> 01:55:38.720 sorry that's it's not in the notes there is one other thing that's kind of cool is once you've 01:55:38.720 --> 01:55:44.320 requested a takedown uh you don't have to like keep requesting takedowns it'll proactively 01:55:44.320 --> 01:55:48.800 remove it again that is neat if it shows up again do you think this will remove it from the ai 01:55:48.800 --> 01:55:54.560 summary no oh oh google's own ai summary i think probably will i don't know about that actually 01:55:54.560 --> 01:55:59.760 i don't think it gives image results really because that's not that's not a ai is it yeah it 01:55:59.760 --> 01:56:04.880 super does maybe i've never asked the ai for an image it's given image results from the Labs website 01:56:06.720 --> 01:56:13.440 oh fun time bloody hell okay before we get into another business meeting because i think that 01:56:13.440 --> 01:56:18.400 was one of our topics this week was to talk about is it actually in here i don't know 01:56:18.400 --> 01:56:22.320 i thought we were going to like kind of talk about the lab and how well like what the future of 01:56:22.320 --> 01:56:29.280 the Labs website looks like if um if our if our graphic okay next week i don't have the chart here 01:56:29.280 --> 01:56:37.440 so it's it gets hurt a lot i'll send an email yeah next next week but basically yeah um ai ai 01:56:38.160 --> 01:56:42.800 crawlers uh we we tried to turn them off and there's some interesting behavior we'll get into that 01:56:42.800 --> 01:56:47.280 before we do our next topic though i just want to talk about the lina con thing from last week 01:56:47.840 --> 01:56:53.520 what i was getting at i went too far i went too far and i'm sorry what i was trying to get at 01:56:53.520 --> 01:56:59.040 is that being pro consumer and being based is sexy that's all i was trying to say it wasn't 01:56:59.040 --> 01:57:08.320 meant to be literally sexual it was just like it's so cool that it's like sexy wood that's all 01:57:08.320 --> 01:57:14.880 it wasn't meant to actually be personal there i said what i should have said right away afterward 01:57:14.880 --> 01:57:22.320 i don't think that helps i what you you just said would again but no that that's what i said 01:57:22.320 --> 01:57:27.360 last week that's that's where i was going with it like i went too far because it wasn't it wasn't 01:57:27.360 --> 01:57:33.520 meant to be about the actual person it was just meant to be being super pro consumer and awesome 01:57:33.520 --> 01:57:40.480 is so good that it's like gone sexual it yes it's i'm not saying it wasn't dumb luke 01:57:40.880 --> 01:57:54.640 okay okay that's all that's all i have to say about it okay okay alphabet is issuing 100 year bonds 01:57:57.520 --> 01:58:03.440 google's parent company will use the sterling century bond to fund ai investments 01:58:04.400 --> 01:58:12.400 century bonds are highly unusual especially in the tech sector where long-term bonds usually 01:58:12.400 --> 01:58:20.480 top out at 40 years though ibm did sell a 100 year bond in 1996 our discussion question here is i got 01:58:20.480 --> 01:58:26.480 nothing from jordan this is crazy 01:58:29.680 --> 01:58:35.520 yeah would would you have any faith whatsoever that alphabet 01:58:37.040 --> 01:58:43.360 will still exist in a hundred years let alone be in any kind of condition to be 01:58:43.360 --> 01:58:46.480 be paying you 01:58:49.680 --> 01:58:59.280 for holding their bonds because of and i guess their logic they need to build ai infrastructure 01:58:59.280 --> 01:59:05.600 so desperately and so immediately that they are mortgaging their future in order to have that ai 01:59:05.600 --> 01:59:15.360 infrastructure today is this am i am i missing something here because i am i am not like a 01:59:15.360 --> 01:59:21.520 financial services expert by any stretch of the imagination but my my understanding is that 01:59:21.520 --> 01:59:27.680 basically they're just you're giving them cash today and then they are giving you a return on that 01:59:27.680 --> 01:59:34.560 like effectively forever for life but they will have to exist and they will have to have this 01:59:34.560 --> 01:59:39.280 money in order to continue to pay that out in the longer term which means that money you give them 01:59:39.280 --> 01:59:45.840 today they have to generate a return on it otherwise the whole thing doesn't make any sense am i missing 01:59:45.840 --> 01:59:57.440 something here um if if a company oh man if a company sells a hundred year bond and then the 01:59:57.520 --> 02:00:06.000 company itself is sold the company that buys them would still owe on the hundred year bond 02:00:06.560 --> 02:00:13.360 correct or no i mean it's uh the the guarantor my understanding is google's parent company it's 02:00:13.360 --> 02:00:18.960 alphabet so it's a publicly held if alphabet it's not about people at that point okay if al if 02:00:18.960 --> 02:00:25.360 alphabet got taken private uh then it would be whoever privately owns them then it would be their 02:00:25.360 --> 02:00:30.640 liability but it would transfer like they can't just be like oops bought the company i'm not going 02:00:30.640 --> 02:00:36.560 to pay these out anymore okay while i will say like i i could foresee a future where alphabet 02:00:36.560 --> 02:00:43.680 doesn't exist anymore um very easily i i don't think i foresee a future where alphabet goes private 02:00:43.680 --> 02:00:49.680 at this point they're just the scale that they've reached it's i don't look i i'm just trying to 02:00:49.680 --> 02:00:53.840 hate to use the i word nothing else i'll have a crazy amount of so someone pointed out that 02:00:53.840 --> 02:00:58.960 ibm sold a hundred year bonds in like 1996 or something and i was thinking like oh no that's 02:00:58.960 --> 02:01:05.680 in the dock uh yeah i thought i was holding chat for whatever reason i could see that still being 02:01:05.680 --> 02:01:09.280 a thing because ibm just has so many patents and at this point they're just kind of sitting around 02:01:09.280 --> 02:01:19.600 with patents as far as i can tell no they do stuff um okay sure i could still see i could still see 02:01:20.560 --> 02:01:23.440 yeah as far as my understanding goes they're doing that to generate patents 02:01:26.000 --> 02:01:31.600 but anyways that's a topic for another time um i could still see google being around because of 02:01:31.600 --> 02:01:41.760 the amount of things that they've made um um but that's where like they're they're they're like ip 02:01:42.480 --> 02:01:50.960 and their patents being important or you know youtube has proven a new age of youtube staying 02:01:50.960 --> 02:01:55.920 power um and maybe google just exists forever now 02:01:58.240 --> 02:02:06.000 well look at how much they killed off yeah yeah tons tons of what i really want to know guys 02:02:06.800 --> 02:02:13.680 is am i missing something here is this as crazy as it seems to be on the surface it seems nuts 02:02:13.680 --> 02:02:23.520 yeah nobody seems to think that i've gone crazy here well at least for this anyway yeah just this 02:02:23.520 --> 02:02:31.040 not the previous thing yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah no it's crazy okay so we're all on the same 02:02:31.040 --> 02:02:37.200 page well no you just that you buy i don't know how much total they issued but like billions is 02:02:37.200 --> 02:02:42.000 my understanding and but you you buy like what you want to buy yeah yeah yeah yeah 02:02:47.200 --> 02:02:51.920 insomniac says nobody ever thought bitcoin was going to be worth a hundred thousand dollars 02:02:52.560 --> 02:02:57.120 got some bad news for you insomniac it isn't how much is it going to be worth in a hundred years 02:02:57.600 --> 02:03:05.040 yeah a hundred years like maybe an incredible amount more maybe nothing yeah because maybe we 02:03:05.040 --> 02:03:10.320 have quantum coin at that point or something who knows who knows or people decide to scam in 02:03:10.320 --> 02:03:14.240 some other way not that bitcoin is really heavy on that but that space is 02:03:14.960 --> 02:03:29.840 bitcoin oh what an evolution i'm sure somebody's done that already okay all right i wow yeah it seems 02:03:29.840 --> 02:03:37.840 like it seems like this is it seems like this is um yeah just as crazy as it sounds to me 02:03:38.720 --> 02:03:45.760 um is this just people being absolutely like like like wealthy investors and and funds being 02:03:46.320 --> 02:03:51.840 desperate for somewhere to put money right now that it's not going to rot like is is that the 02:03:51.840 --> 02:03:56.800 issue with with the way inflation is going with the us dollar and the way the us dollar is devaluing 02:03:56.800 --> 02:04:03.360 with the way that gold doesn't generate passive income like there's there's reasons that all 02:04:03.360 --> 02:04:09.440 these different asset classes exist um you don't want to just have everything in real estate like 02:04:09.440 --> 02:04:17.120 is this just like like tech tech company bonds is this is this the new yolo hail mary because 02:04:17.120 --> 02:04:23.360 there's so much money being managed by by some firm that they're just kind of like well we got to 02:04:23.360 --> 02:04:28.960 buy something with it and okay here's the thing and if this doesn't work then like you know whatever 02:04:28.960 --> 02:04:32.800 some of the other things we did will probably work really good like is that is that what's going on 02:04:32.800 --> 02:04:44.000 here no idea man no financial stuff makes any sense to me anymore everybody's just 02:04:45.760 --> 02:04:52.080 doing stocks based on vibes and now we're doing 100 year long bonds based on probably vibes 02:04:52.800 --> 02:04:58.400 just nothing means anything anymore scrappy dp says no this is google raising capital yeah 02:04:58.400 --> 02:05:03.120 yeah yeah no i understand why google wants to do it the part that i don't understand is why 02:05:03.120 --> 02:05:07.280 anyone wants to buy it that's what that's what i'm trying to figure out no it's not a new thing 02:05:07.280 --> 02:05:09.520 look at preferred stocks and perpetual bonds 02:05:14.720 --> 02:05:18.720 okay preferred stocks and perpetual bonds not a new thing okay all right 02:05:20.480 --> 02:05:28.640 okay just sounds like it to be treated as an equity why wouldn't you just buy actual equity it's a public company 02:05:29.440 --> 02:05:34.240 um well maybe there's some tax reason for it then 02:05:35.200 --> 02:05:42.000 so you can borrow against it because a bond is is more certain it's like it's it's a guaranteed 02:05:42.000 --> 02:05:47.360 payout that's you know lower than the more bonds are safer bond is not tied to share price 02:05:48.000 --> 02:05:52.000 yeah all right we're just getting into weird lands we don't necessarily understand 02:05:53.680 --> 02:05:57.200 i mean i can i can wrap my brain around that but i also just have to 02:05:57.200 --> 02:06:02.400 yeah we're like the comparatives are things that we haven't necessarily heard of which is like 02:06:02.400 --> 02:06:08.080 okay we should probably just get out of here a bond is only a guarantee as long as the guarantor 02:06:08.080 --> 02:06:13.840 is able to guarantee it i mean that's why like u.s government bonds were so popular for so long 02:06:13.840 --> 02:06:17.280 yeah because well yeah the u.s government will go anywhere and they can always just you know 02:06:17.280 --> 02:06:25.120 print more money or whatever uh but like buying a bond from a company that pivots as often and as 02:06:25.120 --> 02:06:34.880 hard as google does for a hundred years a hundred a hundred years alphabet bonds a hundred years 02:06:34.880 --> 02:06:42.400 like i just okay sure well why don't we do another topic sure 02:06:45.040 --> 02:06:52.480 sony will ship their final blu-ray recorders this month blu-ray players will continue production 02:06:52.480 --> 02:07:00.160 for now that's all just wanted to flag that blu-ray's blu-ray's death is not um greatly 02:07:00.240 --> 02:07:07.200 exaggerated it seems like it is finally finally coming finally coming cool see you later blu-ray 02:07:07.200 --> 02:07:14.480 does anyone is anyone in chat gonna miss blu-ray oh east of eastern blu-ray recorders yep what is 02:07:14.480 --> 02:07:20.720 that for like like writing what is that for like burners remember burners why would you call it a 02:07:20.720 --> 02:07:27.680 recorder all right well that was often what they were called back in the day writers burners recorders 02:07:27.680 --> 02:07:32.640 i think the never heard it call the recorder i think the burner parlance kind of went away 02:07:32.640 --> 02:07:40.160 pretty early on but like consumers liked it because it was cool yeah are you gonna have writer recorder 02:07:40.160 --> 02:07:52.480 yeah 100 percent let's just do the Floatplane announcements some of these other ones are really 02:07:52.560 --> 02:07:59.360 depressing i don't know what oh check this out want to bring up the interface there are three 02:08:00.080 --> 02:08:08.000 early access LTT videos and two amazing Floatplane exclusives up this week one of the three 02:08:08.000 --> 02:08:13.600 christmas bonuses this year was allowing employees to spend a thousand dollars on whatever they choose 02:08:13.600 --> 02:08:19.760 as long as they go with fellow employees sammy chewie ariana and bell vlogged their time spending 02:08:19.760 --> 02:08:28.560 their thousand dollars on a bunch of stuff like a base belt clothes and a book fun fact of the three 02:08:28.560 --> 02:08:33.600 options about 95 percent of the company chose to spend the one thousand dollars and then have 02:08:33.600 --> 02:08:40.800 a paid day off there were other options in fact luke and Dan were the only two people that picked 02:08:40.800 --> 02:08:46.320 one of the other options do you want to talk about it you guys are done now right no but we're 02:08:46.320 --> 02:08:49.920 done the primary portion except i forgot you're supposed to take the day off and i wouldn't have 02:08:49.920 --> 02:08:58.800 been able to anyway so i didn't do that part um but we we got four really like fancy very fancy 02:08:58.800 --> 02:09:04.720 cooking glasses and we got a we went to a michelin star restaurant and had the day off the day that 02:09:04.720 --> 02:09:09.520 we went to the michelin star restaurant except i didn't realize just how fancy it was until 02:09:09.520 --> 02:09:15.040 what they showed you the meat or something oh the cooking glasses yeah that was crazy 02:09:16.320 --> 02:09:21.520 i was just like oh cool four cooking classes neat uh and then yeah they went over the ingredients 02:09:21.520 --> 02:09:27.200 list and i was like whoa okay all right um like what was it i forget you told me at some point 02:09:28.240 --> 02:09:35.840 there's like this can you describe the uh the lamb Dan yeah it's like a special new zealand lamb 02:09:35.840 --> 02:09:42.560 grown by sort of a small farm with very particular rules and regulations and it's not sold retail 02:09:42.560 --> 02:09:46.800 it's only given to a couple different restaurants when they start talking about that kind of crap 02:09:46.800 --> 02:09:52.560 the person's name that they know that they get it through and stuff yeah jeffrey's brought this over 02:09:52.560 --> 02:10:00.480 and he's like i work for a different company now uh do you want lamb and it's like oh okay restaurants 02:10:00.480 --> 02:10:05.120 a bit when the when each individual ingredient in the food has a story you know you're paying a 02:10:05.120 --> 02:10:10.160 lot of money um so so that was neat and then we went to the michelin star restaurant we did that 02:10:10.160 --> 02:10:14.400 last night actually that's right so we did our thing yesterday and that's when i was like yeah 02:10:14.400 --> 02:10:20.480 my favorite part was the potato to be fair it was a very fancy potato it was an extremely fancy it 02:10:20.480 --> 02:10:27.520 was like a uh a rosette done sort of scalloped surrounded by potato skin cream which was very 02:10:27.520 --> 02:10:33.520 nice it had some sort of cheese or something on it as well it was really good it was a it was excellent 02:10:35.200 --> 02:10:42.960 unique experience i would say so too we did eight courses yeah cool yeah yeah anyway most 02:10:42.960 --> 02:10:50.240 people just got the shopping spree um i still haven't figured out why no one else picked this 02:10:50.240 --> 02:10:55.440 it's been amazing i'm very happy with the choice we still have two courses

either the other section of sponsors you can do more talk to a no knock to a knock to a celebrates 02:13:33.200 --> 02:13:40.160 half a million CPU cooler mounting upgrade kits this is so cool this is from tom's hardware 02:13:40.160 --> 02:13:47.120 for the past 20 years yeah exactly it's actually very cool i like that they celebrated it this is 02:13:47.120 --> 02:13:58.560 so based this is so pro consumer that i think it's sexy wood for the past 20 years whatever roll 02:13:58.560 --> 02:14:04.480 in would be something for the past 20 years Noctua has been offering mounting upgrade kits 02:14:05.200 --> 02:14:12.240 yeah they have for free to anyone with a valid receipt for a Noctua cooler 02:14:15.120 --> 02:14:21.040 this is with the intention of your Noctua cooler being able to be effectively the last cooler you 02:14:21.040 --> 02:14:27.200 ever buy as long as you don't you don't need uh the you know the better performance of whatever 02:14:27.280 --> 02:14:35.280 their new gen one is i believe you have to pay shipping that's my understanding but um the the 02:14:35.280 --> 02:14:42.240 kit itself is available for free and and this is great for those without the receipt the kits 02:14:42.240 --> 02:14:49.440 are still available on marketplaces for around ten dollars you can and we actually did a youtube 02:14:49.440 --> 02:14:55.040 short on this before the 20 year mark but after i don't know it was like 16 years or something like 02:14:55.040 --> 02:15:00.240 that where we took the very first Noctua cooler we actually had them send us one they still had a 02:15:00.240 --> 02:15:06.160 unit of the very very first Noctua heat sink and we mounted it to the very latest CPU 02:15:06.880 --> 02:15:11.440 and showed it working and it was awesome and it was great and the fact that they will support 02:15:11.440 --> 02:15:18.880 a product like that for so long is it's just it's admirable very admirable 02:15:18.960 --> 02:15:25.840 and i love it uh whoa binky draw says not even shipping you only need to pay if you want it 02:15:25.840 --> 02:15:33.520 expedited that actually explains that time that Noctua sent us a bulk shipment of mounting kits 02:15:34.320 --> 02:15:39.520 um for us to reship for them because i guess they were trying to save a little bit of money 02:15:41.440 --> 02:15:54.480 interesting so cool what just you dude you're just upset that my kink is being pro consumer that's so 02:15:55.440 --> 02:16:01.920 our kink now that's so weird come on luke you know there there's some people that you might have 02:16:01.920 --> 02:16:08.880 an uncomfortable attraction to based on that yeah not to it it's kind of weird dude i'm not 02:16:08.880 --> 02:16:18.000 uncomfortable with it i think you might be i think jacob would laugh it off okay um 02:16:19.920 --> 02:16:24.400 all right let's try to go to something that doesn't arouse Linus somehow um 02:16:26.080 --> 02:16:31.680 log deck g is not going to create an ai device that plays the game for you in their pro lineup 02:16:31.680 --> 02:16:41.920 too late i'm into it oh my god logitech g pro series product manager chris pate was interviewed on tom by tom's guide 02:16:41.920 --> 02:16:47.120 about the future of ai and logitech products and then in quotes logitech as a company is very 02:16:47.120 --> 02:16:52.640 much looking at how to use ai and how to incorporate ai into you know yeah both product development 02:16:52.640 --> 02:16:56.960 and into products themselves from the from a certain point of view from the point of view 02:16:56.960 --> 02:17:02.160 of competitive integrity and esports specifically i think we have to be very careful about how we 02:17:02.160 --> 02:17:08.480 use potentially integrate and touch the pro series with ai touch you don't have to use just 02:17:08.480 --> 02:17:14.240 careful Linus is here we would never do it in a way that would compromise competitive integrity 02:17:14.240 --> 02:17:18.400 we're not going to create an ai device that plays the game for you right 02:17:20.480 --> 02:17:26.000 no no no keep reading it's good that's absolutely outside the bounds of what using that type of 02:17:26.000 --> 02:17:34.560 technology would be applied to the pro line okay yeah so i just nothing i just thought that's cool 02:17:34.560 --> 02:17:41.280 yeah good job logitech not cool for drawing a line right because taking a stance right now 02:17:42.240 --> 02:17:48.480 against ai in any way feels like like corporate kryptonite and just coming out and saying 02:17:48.480 --> 02:17:55.200 and and and like okay it seems so obvious right no we're not going to create an ai product that 02:17:55.200 --> 02:18:01.520 like plays the game for you because that's completely against the integrity of competition 02:18:02.320 --> 02:18:06.880 yeah that seems obvious doesn't it luke and yet you've got all these monitor manufacturers 02:18:06.880 --> 02:18:12.800 that are figuring that started with a crosshair started with a cheat cheating crosshair yeah 02:18:12.800 --> 02:18:17.680 you're supposed to just put masking tape on your screen and then put a little cross on it 02:18:17.680 --> 02:18:23.680 stop what are you guys doing and then got as far as like sending alerts like that that they would 02:18:23.760 --> 02:18:27.760 monitor what's going on on screen in your mini map and send you alerts if you're about to get 02:18:27.760 --> 02:18:35.360 ganks like that is not playing the game anymore speaking of no go no go ahead speaking of things 02:18:35.360 --> 02:18:40.080 that logitech could maybe use ai for maybe naming their mice there's a new article on the lab's 02:18:40.080 --> 02:18:45.120 website making sense of logitech's mouse lineup where we go through their different things this is 02:18:45.120 --> 02:18:49.920 like the opposite of sponsored by logitech where we go through their different product lines and try 02:18:49.920 --> 02:18:54.720 to make sense of their naming schemes because they're a little should this be an LTT could this 02:18:54.720 --> 02:18:59.520 just be an LTT could i just take this article write a script and then just make it an LTT i think 02:18:59.520 --> 02:19:05.440 if you want to make it an LTT i think you might need to do more than just the the logitech mouse 02:19:05.440 --> 02:19:10.880 lineup i think you might want to do like a couple companies or something why i don't know i mean 02:19:10.880 --> 02:19:16.320 they're the they're hands down the leader in the space you hear i mean i think you and i have 02:19:16.320 --> 02:19:20.240 probably said more times than we can count you want a good gaming mouse that'll last you a long 02:19:20.240 --> 02:19:24.960 time find something from logitech's lineup yeah so what's wrong with that 02:19:27.840 --> 02:19:32.000 and then if it's successful has anything to do with that and then if it's successful hell marks 02:19:32.000 --> 02:19:38.080 100 right we just do the same thing with razor and then it's a whole series because i think you 02:19:38.800 --> 02:19:44.880 think you can try it i would watch that yeah i think okay that's an awesome series a business 02:19:44.880 --> 02:19:50.960 meeting time i think sometimes we are often led by fear and i think in the current youtube environment 02:19:50.960 --> 02:19:54.960 that actually doesn't you know in a weird way i think the craziness going on with the algorithm 02:19:54.960 --> 02:20:00.240 right now benefits not being very fearful about your content because if you release something 02:20:00.240 --> 02:20:05.280 that sucks the algorithm doesn't really seem like it punishes you as hard as it used to 02:20:05.360 --> 02:20:12.320 it just will not give it any views so there's a possibility this video gets 300 000 views 02:20:12.320 --> 02:20:18.880 which for us would be pretty rough um but if that does happen then the next one can still 02:20:18.880 --> 02:20:22.000 do really well so you don't have the like momentum issue that you had in the past so 02:20:22.640 --> 02:20:29.520 just go for it yeah sick since we're having a business meeting there's yeah uh Dan i just 02:20:29.520 --> 02:20:39.760 dropped a link to the LTT subreddit in the in your teams should we start publishing to porn hub 02:20:41.120 --> 02:20:48.640 sure apparently the ad cpms are three x yeah nice just do it there's also if you need to do 02:20:48.640 --> 02:20:54.880 research for making your video uh you could go to the lucas has been posting all the articles on 02:20:54.880 --> 02:21:01.440 uh the LTT subreddit and i think somebody pointed out that we like missed one of the mice or 02:21:01.440 --> 02:21:06.240 something so maybe there's some additional detail in the comments we do read the comments in there 02:21:06.240 --> 02:21:09.600 check them out on the subreddit but yeah i don't know you'd have to find an employee that wouldn't 02:21:09.600 --> 02:21:17.200 mind doing that um i'm sure there is one you just put yourself on screen yeah he's going to put 02:21:17.200 --> 02:21:25.440 up the screen no that's not what happened i missed it luke can you throw it up um if you want to 02:21:26.240 --> 02:21:32.160 what am i throwing up i'm not putting potatoes potatoes okay what am i putting on screen i'll 02:21:32.160 --> 02:21:37.440 try and find where you guys are in the dock uh it was this link line is sent to me 02:21:39.520 --> 02:21:46.640 this is crazy it's from a stem creator sorry where is this it's under the logitech topic 02:21:46.720 --> 02:21:55.040 okay i wasn't there anymore uh i see it LTT so it's a subreddit thing this looks probably it's fine 02:21:55.040 --> 02:22:01.520 it's safe for work i i've sent it all right relax guys people may not know this but i publish 02:22:01.520 --> 02:22:08.320 the same stem videos on both youtube and what can i say i think so on the hub while while youtube 02:22:08.320 --> 02:22:14.960 generally generates more views the ad revenue per million views on the hub is nearly three times higher 02:22:15.680 --> 02:22:21.280 other creators are uploading stem videos on the hub and seeing two times uh the revenue 02:22:21.280 --> 02:22:26.720 since most of the subreddit spends their time on the hub anyways it seems like a smart move for 02:22:26.720 --> 02:22:32.080 LTT to post there um to be clear i don't think this is something that we would do for the same 02:22:32.080 --> 02:22:37.840 reason that we have certain ad verticals disabled on youtube i don't know that i'd be particular 02:22:37.840 --> 02:22:42.560 like there's a reason that these advertisers pay more it's because fewer sites will take them 02:22:43.280 --> 02:22:50.800 um right oh that that's why the cpms are so high i mean we've had this conversation a thousand 02:22:50.800 --> 02:22:55.760 times around like the LTT forum we'll have some agency approach us oh yeah i could sell i could 02:22:55.760 --> 02:23:00.400 i could make you rich with ads on your community forum and i'm like yeah how and they go oh well 02:23:00.400 --> 02:23:05.520 all you have to do is have ads for this stuff and i'm like yeah okay we're good um but i just i 02:23:05.520 --> 02:23:14.240 thought i thought it was interesting i thought it was interesting you could try it and see what the community feedback is try stuff do it we already have someone who volunteered to do the 02:23:14.240 --> 02:23:19.520 uploading they already volunteered yeah we could upload like the good news stuff there like

at it all right should we talk about these bank now i think you could have a lot of 02:28:41.280 --> 02:28:47.920 fun with the titles oh yeah videos uploaded over there oh for sure someone in fulping chat already 02:28:47.920 --> 02:28:52.880 said that you should do like uh explaining what dp is and it's just an exploration of DisplayPort 02:28:54.960 --> 02:28:59.440 like a fully safer work that's what i should have done for this is going to be great and then and 02:28:59.440 --> 02:29:04.320 then there's all those exploring dp with my co-workers line is but there's all those videos 02:29:04.320 --> 02:29:10.400 that are like yeah i got stuck in the washing machine or whatever yeah yeah you could do titles 02:29:10.400 --> 02:29:18.000 that are actually like not really innuendo-y but seem like they might be because of the content i 02:29:18.000 --> 02:29:23.840 think you could use the uh you could use the washing machine one of my new screwdriver yeah yeah 02:29:23.840 --> 02:29:31.360 yeah she checks out my screwdriver one in each hand 10 million views anyway speaking of 10 million 02:29:31.360 --> 02:29:36.960 views no notes youtube music lyrics now require a premium subscription youtube music is rolling out 02:29:36.960 --> 02:29:43.360 a five free lyric view limit on their platform once you hit that limit only the first few lines 02:29:43.360 --> 02:29:49.280 are visible with the rest blurred unless you subscribe youtube music premium costs $11 a 02:29:49.280 --> 02:29:57.760 month in the us while full youtube premium is $13.99 a month in the us i don't know why pretty much 02:29:57.760 --> 02:30:02.560 anyone would get just youtube music premium and my reason for saying that is not because like oh you're 02:30:02.560 --> 02:30:08.240 too cheap to get the the whole youtube premium my reason for that is i would just get something else 02:30:08.240 --> 02:30:14.720 Shopify or sorry Spotify or something youtube music really is like the thing that you have 02:30:14.720 --> 02:30:20.080 because you have youtube premium uh just like how every company uses teams because they happen to 02:30:20.080 --> 02:30:24.400 have the office suite and teams happens to be there which makes it like the best option 02:30:24.400 --> 02:30:30.720 not because it's actually good um just so i only i only highlighted this because it's 02:30:31.280 --> 02:30:36.480 i guess wonderful that youtube is finding ways to me or google is finding ways to make youtube 02:30:36.480 --> 02:30:41.840 music worse instead of making it more like google play music which was awesome yeah so yeah this this 02:30:41.840 --> 02:30:48.640 blows and that's all that i have to say about that google says it now has 325 plus million paid 02:30:48.640 --> 02:30:54.240 subscribers across services that's pretty good i'm assuming that you include google workspace 02:30:54.400 --> 02:31:00.560 also not that meaningful because their services are so broad yeah and youtube brought in over 60 02:31:00.560 --> 02:31:08.080 billion in ads and subscriptions in 2025 all right what else we got microsoft is rolling out a new 02:31:08.080 --> 02:31:13.200 secure boot certificate before the old ones expire in june so they've started pushing these through 02:31:13.200 --> 02:31:18.080 monthly Windows updates ahead of june 2026 which is the expiration of the original 2011 02:31:18.080 --> 02:31:22.000 certificates secure boot verifies trusted bootloaders that start out blocking things like 02:31:22.000 --> 02:31:25.760 root kits from loading before Windows begins the new certificates are being automatically 02:31:25.760 --> 02:31:30.640 deployed to supported Windows 11 24 h2 and 25 h2 systems though some devices may require 02:31:30.640 --> 02:31:36.720 firmware updates from oems first basically we're just flagging this to like look into your device 02:31:36.720 --> 02:31:40.720 make sure that you're not going to enter a degraded security state with reduced boot 02:31:40.720 --> 02:31:46.880 level protections and all that good stuff uh also in other news t-mobile introduces live 02:31:46.880 --> 02:31:51.840 translations with no app required i thought that was pretty cool i don't have the opportunity to try 02:31:51.840 --> 02:31:57.440 it because i'm not on t-mobile so yep there you go that's pretty neat uh and how does that work 02:32:00.160 --> 02:32:06.560 i don't know sounds cool someone uh try it out and let me know so they're recording all your calls 02:32:06.560 --> 02:32:11.200 is what i'm taking of course they are yeah cool don't you love the world i want to talk about 02:32:11.200 --> 02:32:18.720 ianio's new handheld they the first time ianio did like uh like we're making something that's 02:32:18.800 --> 02:32:24.320 really high end they called it the ianio next and it was a pretty cool handheld back in the day 02:32:24.320 --> 02:32:32.560 they just announced the next two which without early bird pricing on indiegogo is starting 02:32:32.560 --> 02:32:39.200 at two thousand dollars and the maxed out spec will be forty three hundred dollars we are literally in 02:32:40.080 --> 02:32:45.200 decent second hand car territory multiple times the cost of my first car and i'm also assuming 02:32:45.200 --> 02:32:53.120 that's usd so it's like a few multiple times the maxed out specs include a nine inch 165 hertz 02:32:53.120 --> 02:33:02.960 OLED at 2400 by 1504 that reaches 1155 nits the AMD ryzen ai max plus 395 so this is a 02:33:03.680 --> 02:33:11.920 16 core CPU 16 core mobile CPU zen 5 course that has an r dna what what is it something 02:33:11.920 --> 02:33:17.920 something point something it not for the the previous one has uh an r dna graphic GPU that's 02:33:17.920 --> 02:33:25.360 like about on par with kind of an entry-level mobile dedicated GPU like this thing is flipping 02:33:25.360 --> 02:33:33.120 powerful r dna 3.5 thanks avocadotus diaboli or whatever uh up to 128 gigs of lp ddr 5x memory 02:33:33.120 --> 02:33:38.320 at 85 33 mega transfers per second two terabytes of nvmi storage tmr joysticks hull effect triggers 02:33:38.320 --> 02:33:42.480 a 116 watt hour battery that is going to make it so that you have to fill out special paperwork 02:33:42.480 --> 02:33:50.240 in order to take it on a plane and it weighs about a kilogram and a half three and a half pounds 02:33:53.360 --> 02:33:59.920 that's sick do you want to show it on screen as someone who already has spent a fair bit of time 02:33:59.920 --> 02:34:07.760 daily driving a gpd win five this is the last category of products that needs fierce competition 02:34:07.760 --> 02:34:15.680 the the strict halo handheld gaming pc space it looks like a pretty cool little device though 02:34:16.800 --> 02:34:23.600 ianio has run into some trouble recently with um their customers being kind of irate at them for 02:34:23.600 --> 02:34:31.440 reasons that i don't 100 no right now but uh seem to be valid i i like very briefly scanned it like 02:34:31.440 --> 02:34:37.200 supporting devices after the fact and stuff like that i actually kind of like what gpd did with the 02:34:37.200 --> 02:34:41.440 win five the i when i unboxed it i thought it was really stupid but the more i've used it the more 02:34:41.440 --> 02:34:45.600 i've really liked their battery tether i just put it in the pocket of my cargo pants and then it 02:34:45.600 --> 02:34:50.320 makes it so that it feels like a normal weight and i don't have to carry around a massive massive 02:34:50.320 --> 02:34:56.000 battery with it with that said even even with the giant battery oh dude it feels like it feels like 02:34:56.000 --> 02:35:03.040 rocking out to my zoom yeah um even with the massive battery that it has it still doesn't like 02:35:03.040 --> 02:35:07.680 last that long i mostly used it used it plugged in but it's nice to be able to game in bed at 02:35:07.680 --> 02:35:13.920 like really high fidelity i played most of expedition 33 on the gpd win five east of easton 02:35:13.920 --> 02:35:18.880 said good thing this can't fly because you won't after those prices either and while i think that's 02:35:18.880 --> 02:35:25.680 really funny i think the people that can afford that and will buy that will be able to fly afterwards 02:35:26.320 --> 02:35:31.280 because that's what's happening to the economy uh hey did you hear about the new concept the 02:35:31.280 --> 02:35:42.960 e-shaped economy no so it's to it's to capture that the the top of the k right is is never going 02:35:42.960 --> 02:35:51.520 to approach the middle class again which is going to remain enormously elevated from the the very 02:35:52.080 --> 02:35:59.600 bottom who are struggling a lot so this is this is like a new kind of way of describing it 02:35:59.600 --> 02:36:05.280 yeah so now we've got the stratification has expanded it's not that um that the middle class 02:36:05.280 --> 02:36:11.040 is going to be coming along with the economy yeah i yeah yeah that's that's not bad i still 02:36:11.040 --> 02:36:16.720 think k-shaped is a better descriptor for most people but it's uh the k-shaped i think better 02:36:16.720 --> 02:36:22.880 shows the divergence yeah yeah yeah but that is interesting uh what else is interesting in finance 02:36:22.880 --> 02:36:28.480 is that mr beast finally been waiting for this bought a banking app now i can finally do real 02:36:28.560 --> 02:36:34.160 banking beast industries mr beast company has acquired step which has apparently seven million 02:36:34.160 --> 02:36:40.400 users a financial services app for teens and young adults that has banking services provided by steps 02:36:40.400 --> 02:36:47.040 banking partner evolve bank and trust uh this follows mr beast's announcement of a new youtube 02:36:47.040 --> 02:36:54.320 channel focused on personal finance and investing backed by his own bank that's cool uh other ventures 02:36:54.320 --> 02:36:59.680 include ghost restaurants festivals and 10 trillion other things uh first move into financial services 02:36:59.680 --> 02:37:04.000 which feels like he's employing a strategy to continue to monetize his audience as they age 02:37:04.000 --> 02:37:09.440 moving from snacks into savings um although you know people definitely still buy snacks when they're 02:37:09.440 --> 02:37:14.880 older uh discussion question given the recent rash of influencer hyped mean coin rug pulls i 02:37:14.880 --> 02:37:20.240 don't think that's recent uh do you think this is more of the same another grift or a sound business 02:37:20.240 --> 02:37:25.120 model strategy for beast industries i suspect it will be a legitimate bank and i suspect it will 02:37:25.120 --> 02:37:28.640 be a legitimate bank that gets a lot of its customers through insane marketing from his 02:37:28.640 --> 02:37:33.840 financial channel and it will be more successful than it should be because of that i think it will 02:37:33.840 --> 02:37:40.080 be boring i think it's a pretty sound business decision i think that uh i mean i i said years 02:37:40.080 --> 02:37:47.520 ago that he'd be the first youtube billionaire i think he's he's passed it now right no idea what 02:37:47.520 --> 02:37:55.360 he might as well be uh i don't know i haven't had like a a chat with him in a long time um 02:37:56.240 --> 02:38:01.360 when he was younger though i can i can say that he seemed to mostly have his heart in the right 02:38:01.360 --> 02:38:05.600 place even if not every just even if i'd like wouldn't agree with every decision that he made 02:38:05.600 --> 02:38:14.000 and he did some things that i think were ill advised um i would like to hopefully believe 02:38:14.000 --> 02:38:24.160 that he would find a way to make his bank you know not predatory or whatever but i um 02:38:25.200 --> 02:38:36.560 i've also seen beast endeavors that have been kind of running seemingly pretty independently 02:38:36.560 --> 02:38:42.480 and he seems like he's stretched really thin like between the content and feastables and 02:38:43.040 --> 02:38:52.960 i i would and have bought yeah uh you know i've bought youtuber shirts i've bought a wide variety 02:38:52.960 --> 02:38:58.560 of different youtuber merch things have supported youtubers on patreon and Floatplane and and what 02:38:58.560 --> 02:39:04.480 not i think it's really cool that there's youtuber creator candy i haven't bought any of it but i 02:39:04.480 --> 02:39:13.120 totally would um i think i'm good doing my banking with some boring people boring really 02:39:13.120 --> 02:39:18.800 boring suited people ideally like as boring as possible really like i want to walk in and 02:39:18.800 --> 02:39:23.520 immediately want to yawn and just be bored and then walk out with a bank account that works 02:39:24.320 --> 02:39:29.520 i think i think that's what i want them to do personally it's not financial advice but 02:39:30.480 --> 02:39:37.040 please yeah i do the bank nerd says not gonna lie feastables taste like trash well the original 02:39:37.040 --> 02:39:41.360 ones were actually really good they were pretty high cocoa content they were like actually pretty 02:39:41.360 --> 02:39:49.440 good quality chocolate um and then they reformulated them to be more appealing to the average mr 02:39:49.440 --> 02:39:55.280 beast viewer and also they're probably cheaper to make now so now they taste a lot more like the 02:39:55.280 --> 02:40:01.040 chocolate on a kit cat or whatever but the early ones were actually pretty good like if you like 02:40:01.040 --> 02:40:10.000 quality chocolate um that has like high is high in cocoa my kids i um i had like some really nice 02:40:10.720 --> 02:40:18.720 swiss chocolate that was like 65 or 70 cocoa or something like that and um i was i was treating 02:40:18.720 --> 02:40:24.160 myself to like an after dinner just piece of chocolate and they were like oh what's that 02:40:24.160 --> 02:40:28.320 that doesn't look like you know the chocolate we've had before i'm like oh this is this is chocolate 02:40:28.320 --> 02:40:33.760 they're like well yeah but like i'm like no no but like this is chocolate and uh they tried it i was 02:40:33.760 --> 02:40:38.480 actually surprised that they all liked it i think i probably to put my thumb on the scale a little 02:40:38.480 --> 02:40:44.640 bit by giving them extremely small pieces because the the bitterness can be not that appealing to a 02:40:44.640 --> 02:40:50.080 younger palette but they all really they all really liked it and i was like oh okay yeah well 02:40:50.080 --> 02:40:55.520 it's really expensive so uh we're not going to happen in the house very often but yeah that's 02:40:55.520 --> 02:41:00.880 chocolate it's really good people saying it's technically not a bank it's just a fin tech 02:41:00.880 --> 02:41:11.200 company that is backed by a bank sounds like it needs to exist even less but yeah i don't know 02:41:11.200 --> 02:41:17.680 i don't i'm just supremely not interested and maybe somebody will be but this this ain't for me 02:41:21.040 --> 02:41:29.840 cool it's a finance app aimed at gen z and gen alpha people like you're you're just slowly doing 02:41:29.840 --> 02:41:35.520 the reverse of winning me over so anyways not for me i won't be engaging not financial advice 02:41:35.520 --> 02:41:43.440 do the hell you want see you later uh after dark is it after dark it's after dark i think it's 02:41:43.440 --> 02:41:50.000 after dark i mean it's clearly after dark oh actually there's lights on outside it's not 02:41:50.000 --> 02:41:54.720 that clearly after dark it's definitely after dark oh that's why there's lights on outside 02:41:56.400 --> 02:42:02.000 nice solid all right i don't have too many for you here luke den and Linus has there ever been 02:42:02.000 --> 02:42:07.600 an item bought for an AMD upgrade where you were like i could use that and eventually bought it 02:42:07.600 --> 02:42:17.440 also Floatplane exclusives are too good lately tammy tone it back no um i am not in the dashboard 02:42:17.440 --> 02:42:23.360 and i usually don't actually listen to you i read along because i process information better that 02:42:23.360 --> 02:42:28.320 way i need to log into the dashboard right now yeah that's why that's why i read them so that you 02:42:28.320 --> 02:42:34.080 can read it uh yeah i will dm them too yeah don't you don't want to say that again that's probably 02:42:34.080 --> 02:42:40.800 too behind the curtain for for Floatplane jet um have your reserve been an item bought on an AMD 02:42:40.800 --> 02:42:48.160 upgrade where you thought that you could use it and eventually bought one oh oh man uh 02:42:52.320 --> 02:42:56.800 hold on fill record is this is this gonna work nice okay i'm in i hacked the mainframe 02:42:57.760 --> 02:43:05.840 grill Linus has grills now okay very funny he only wears them off camera you got into 02:43:05.840 --> 02:43:10.160 your making fun of me no but i should have they are the right color 02:43:17.600 --> 02:43:22.000 got him i'm so i'm so sorry i missed that because i was trying to think that's okay i like it enough 02:43:22.000 --> 02:43:29.280 you didn't even need to laugh i enjoyed it myself um i was pretty tempted by the live laugh 02:43:29.280 --> 02:43:34.960 liao neon sign but i i just i couldn't spend money on that like i i'd love to have one but i 02:43:34.960 --> 02:43:41.280 wouldn't love to buy it to pay for it yeah that was pretty rough there's so many things i would 02:43:41.280 --> 02:43:49.520 love to have for free that is very i like that that's good yeah um Linus town you know what i would 02:43:49.520 --> 02:43:54.400 be i would i would be tempted i would have been tempted to pick up some of like the cool bike 02:43:54.400 --> 02:44:01.760 stickers that andrew had in his uh first motorbike but then i painted my bike uh let's see what else 02:44:01.760 --> 02:44:10.160 we got man i don't know it's it's funny because other than my like tech junk i actually don't 02:44:10.160 --> 02:44:16.400 like having a lot of clutter i'm like such a millennial gray don't have extra stuff 02:44:16.480 --> 02:44:18.080 anywhere uh person 02:44:24.480 --> 02:44:29.600 no no i actually haven't haven't really found much that i've been that interested in 02:44:31.920 --> 02:44:38.560 okay surprise surprise neither yeah but you although i do think that a lot of the purchase 02:44:38.560 --> 02:44:44.400 that people have made are cool and suit them hold on no no that might might have been a bit of a 02:44:44.400 --> 02:44:51.120 lie um because i i wasn't dailying in OLED when the first person went OLED for their gaming machine 02:44:51.120 --> 02:44:57.840 i don't think and i i think i went mo led shortly after that is that why though uh i mean like i 02:44:57.840 --> 02:45:04.000 guess the thing for me is that i'm i'm already aware of most stuff tech wise before i i see it on 02:45:04.000 --> 02:45:09.040 an AMD upgrade yeah and and a lot of the non tech stuff is people's own hobbies and their own interests 02:45:09.040 --> 02:45:14.080 which i don't necessarily share because i my main hobby is running a business because if it 02:45:14.080 --> 02:45:19.920 isn't then your business isn't really likely to be very successful unless you are really really 02:45:19.920 --> 02:45:25.040 really really good at it and you can run your own business in 40 hours a week which is like wow that's 02:45:25.040 --> 02:45:35.760 cool especially in the early days like wow good job up next i have had the joy of running a stem 02:45:35.760 --> 02:45:42.240 camp for kids of all ages recently i i'm cool i'm constantly looking for cool experience 02:45:42.240 --> 02:45:47.920 experiments or activities in tech for it do you have any suggestions for a cool stem activity 02:45:51.760 --> 02:45:59.840 fractions i really liked making like catapults and stuff trebuchet yeah trebuchets catapults 02:45:59.840 --> 02:46:05.440 that was really fun and you can like get them to try to do the math before every shot of like 02:46:05.440 --> 02:46:12.080 where it's gonna land um like i like actually tie in like actual learning objectives don't 02:46:12.080 --> 02:46:19.440 just do the fun part this one must launch it reward the yeah reward the i did the math stuff with 02:46:20.880 --> 02:46:26.000 thing get thrown and go bang and that's cool here's your projectile it has to go exactly 200 02:46:26.000 --> 02:46:31.760 feet yeah math please this may be beyond the scope and is honestly just because i've had to 02:46:31.760 --> 02:46:37.200 have this conversation a lot of times recently with my kids but i i'd love it if you did a little 02:46:37.200 --> 02:46:43.280 thing on like adhesives and help them understand you know how they function and why some of them 02:46:43.280 --> 02:46:49.600 work for some things and don't work for other things just explaining super glue at all yeah like my 02:46:49.600 --> 02:46:54.000 kids keep trying to use hot glue on 3d prints and i keep having to explain that no in fact you 02:46:54.000 --> 02:47:02.080 can't do that um unless depending on the filament maybe you can but um it's really not optimal for 02:47:02.080 --> 02:47:09.120 what they were trying to do and it's just the kind of thing that i think we don't really get like 02:47:09.120 --> 02:47:14.800 taught i like i don't remember ever being taught anything to do with yeah with adhesives and solvents 02:47:14.800 --> 02:47:19.440 and stuff like that i don't know yeah this might be more the older kids but it's just something 02:47:19.440 --> 02:47:23.360 that's on my mind because i've had to talk about it a little bit lately 02:47:25.200 --> 02:47:31.440 hey dll i'm making my way through tactics on tactician how many levels ahead of story battles 02:47:31.440 --> 02:47:39.520 did you usually have to be towards the end i didn't keep track i just uh i just played the game and 02:47:40.080 --> 02:47:44.800 tried to win and i would i don't i don't think i i don't think i ground much i think i skipped 02:47:44.880 --> 02:47:50.880 almost every random encounter which might explain why i was oh oh wait we'll hold on hold on hold on 02:47:51.520 --> 02:47:57.600 okay i'm a bit of a completionist when it comes to abilities though so i would just like hide in a 02:47:57.600 --> 02:48:02.000 corner and like hit my own guys and stuff to get abilities and then i would end up really 02:48:02.000 --> 02:48:06.880 over leveled so i i don't know i'm i'm a mess to completely ignore me in my and my strategies 02:48:07.920 --> 02:48:14.080 last one i'll count for you today good evening when wook and winus i'm writing from the future 02:48:14.080 --> 02:48:20.720 as i am visiting japan have any of you been to the tahoku area and if so where should i visit 02:48:20.720 --> 02:48:26.320 if i get the chance i'm currently in sendai i don't think i've ever been there but if i had i 02:48:26.320 --> 02:48:32.960 wouldn't know because the way that i travel for work is i get on the plane and then i arrive 02:48:32.960 --> 02:48:39.360 wherever it is that i am and then i open up an app or a cab or whatever it is that i do 02:48:39.360 --> 02:48:44.480 and i go to whatever hotel i'm supposed to go to and then in the morning i go to whatever 02:48:44.480 --> 02:48:50.240 factory tour or thing that i'm supposed to do is and then i go home and so i don't really 02:48:50.240 --> 02:48:54.800 know where i am sometimes uh because it doesn't really matter 02:48:57.600 --> 02:49:02.480 sorry uh elinor says visit the ghibli museum though that sounds amazing i'd love to go to 02:49:02.480 --> 02:49:12.480 a ghibli museum yeah cool that's it is that it for today wow okay you didn't curate many we had a 02:49:12.480 --> 02:49:20.560 lot of merge messages today but i guess um not too many questions oh wow how about that well um you 02:49:20.560 --> 02:49:29.040 guys all nokie says i'm working on this to help with your wiki page what is this oh wow 02:49:30.000 --> 02:49:35.600 whoa a whole history of like Floatplane closed beta alpha phase domain announcement 02:49:36.480 --> 02:49:41.360 okay the real trick though nokie is you've got to find other people talking about it this can't be 02:49:41.360 --> 02:49:48.320 first party this is actually pretty good yeah this has this has some information that most people 02:49:48.320 --> 02:49:54.480 don't know yeah luke has done a lot of cool stuff let's get him a well let's get him a wiki 02:49:54.480 --> 02:49:59.280 page you should have one i don't think it makes sense the most important left friend here i mean 02:49:59.280 --> 02:50:05.680 what was the other one a hockey player yeah the pretty big deal one yeah did you have a float 02:50:05.680 --> 02:50:11.440 plane no no but he has a jersey my dad has one of his jerseys it's kind of cool to have an official 02:50:11.440 --> 02:50:15.600 jersey without the like custom name on the back like it's actually just an official jersey and it 02:50:15.600 --> 02:50:20.080 is also your last name it's pretty sick that's pretty that is pretty cool i kind of want one but 02:50:20.160 --> 02:50:24.640 their jerseys are really expensive oh yeah dude they're they're so expensive 02:50:26.880 --> 02:50:32.400 all right i think that's it i'll have to get back to uh it looks so dope though oh my god 02:50:35.040 -->
