that let me go look it up I see it messages like this create filter perfect day There are some people that really are have a very unique relationship with reality you're unique thank you you know you catch a unique rabbit no unique up on it you know how you catch a tame rabbit tame way stupid unique up I know you used to catch bunnies really that UVic huh yeah and eat them no this was in your school days I wouldn't put it past no no yeah you lay on the ground in the grass and stick your arms way out and then slowly like pluck the grass but you want to break it so it makes it kind of sound like rabbits eating and then the little ones will come right up next to your hand because they often eat communally and then you just be like whoop okay mine now and then you have a pet little bunny for the day so they're like the ducks at the pond yeah they're just free right yeah and then you just go put them back if you want if you want right yeah sometimes it takes one little adventure show them to people and stuff eventually they'd get like super calm and just hang out and then when I go let them go they just kind of like stare at me for a while and I'd have to convince it be like no you're good you can go and then it would it would bounce away it's good yes I did see gold today gold had a day yeah didn't it oh yeah yeah not as bad as silver but yeah but if you if you look at the one year like look yeah yeah yeah but but gold had a day yeah gold had a day started last night didn't it um I think so yeah yeah I think it's still way up yeah like if you look a little wider even if you look at like six months it's still way up I mean yeah if you look at one month it's still up I just wouldn't say it's way up yeah yeah yeah I mean it's kind of way up I kind of want to buy the dip it's still up like 10% I know I want to buy the dip yeah talk me out of it I don't know anything about stocks so this is not financial advice yeah me neither I know nothing look at the five-year chart for gold brother it's a blip listen I may be well regarded but that doesn't mean that I am knowledgeable in fact it means the opposite buy low sell high infinite money glitch thanks no key yeah like a day return your day return is bad but your your year to date your year to date and it's still January is great your year to date is 10.4% the S&P 500 is 0.62 like you're still fine unless you're like literally swapping stocks on the daily you're you're frickin chilling your three-year return is 211% like your one-year return is 142% that's if you're clairvoyant and you bought a year ago though so fair yeah but three year 211% yeah five year clairvoyant and you bought three years ago 206% is still pretty good assuming you're clairvoyant and you bought five years ago yeah Genesis says IRC gold being worth a lot means there's like lower declining confidence in other currencies yeah basically it's a bet on fine it's a bet on financial chaos essentially world is crazy right now gold's going up what yeah I mean not financial advice no but personally and this is not financial advice seeing what's going on with the proposed bricks currency being at least partially gold backed and seeing how the general chaos doesn't look like it's not financial advice gonna subside anytime over the next say let's pick an arbitrary timeline three years I'm tempted to buy the dip who knows not financial advice you should buy Ubisoft if I was a degenerate gambler I was actually I was talking to Elijah about this like two days ago like it's like $4 right now or something 471 yeah that says 437 but sure no it's well hold on previous closed 471 yeah like it would take some pretty degenerate gambling but like it's amazing yeah and to be clear you know how I often will talk about what I think might happen and it isn't financial advice the Ubisoft one this is really no there's no there is no coded like yeah I've been looking at AMD and Intel's roadmaps and I can really see that AMD is going to be taking a lot of market share over the next three to five years there is none of that here I want to be so explicit that this is the finance this is financial advice I am not advising you to buy Ubisoft that's all don't however if I was a degenerate gambler I would be tempted because it's like what's the worst case scenario you lose all your money what drove Shopify down so much I don't know I think generally stocks have been taking a bit of a beating like very recently like it was a it was a pretty red Monday if I recall correctly in the last month they're down 20% but in the last six months they're up 6.7% that is a surprisingly volatile stock dude it's all gambling everything is yeah it's all gambling so it's so everything's crazy oh we have to record a thing Dan should we do that now okay hi Luke can you do this with minimal sarcasm you can do a high sarcasm version for Dan to me man Sean and send to him but can we do like a proper read to please I just said one word I know but we all knew where you were going with it all right can you use the word degenerate less please it's not mean connotations what degenerate what the hell does that mean is that word canceled down decline as it has a clear mentally I mean I can see what you mean sounds fine biology racist what how no okay that would be the first I'd be hearing of that and then again I'd never heard of the hard are so who knows having reverted to a simpler form as a result of result of losing a complex or adaptive structure present in the ancestral form I mean in the context of degenerate gambler though I think we all know what it means and it doesn't mean any of those things literally the audience calls me that from my computer so I say when you stop calling me that I'll stop using it says Elijah okay come on Jen's from upcountry so I say when you stop calling me that I'll stop yeah because they call him degenerate so you can control Elijah's speech it means dysfunction but yeah that's exactly what I'm saying it's racist and that some people thought some skin tones are less evolved than others I mean holy crap there's gonna be someone stupid enough to think anything I don't know guys I really haven't seen I really haven't seen a whole bunch that gambler is pejorative enough by itself no but they don't think so that that's the whole thing and they're like look Luke and I have seen the one unicorn person with a healthy relationship with gambling the one we both are talking about the same person right now so for that reason I feel the need to specify because I do literally know a gambler who is not what I who I would consider to be like a degenerate gambler he's just actually totally fine and has never been a problem for them yeah I don't know guys this really feels like a bit of a reach hi okay are we doing it all right let's do it do it properly on the first one you can't okay hi I'm Linus Sebastian I'm Luke LaFrenier and together we host the WAN Show a once a week

hi I'm Linus Sebastian I'm Luke LaFrenier and together we host the WAN Show a once a week podcast about technology the tech industry and the decade plus that we've spent covering them there will be tech there will be tips and there will be many side quests and tangents that's the best part we're just two dudes who love tech hanging out and you can consider this your formal invitation to join us catch the show every Friday here on Spotify or go through our previous uploads right now do it you know you want to okay that's not too bad good that was okay we can do your version now okay hi I'm Linus Sebastian I'm Luke LaFrenier and together we host the WAN Show a once a week podcast about technology the tech industry and the decade plus that we've spent covering it there will be tech there will be tips and there will be many side quests and tangents that's the best part we're two dudes who love tech just hanging out so consider this your formal invitation to join us catch the show every Friday right here on Spotify or go through our previous uploads right now you know you want to you know they're gonna use that one right all right thanks guys this is the equivalent to do a silly one and then it becomes the poster yeah okay all right that was truly awful use that one thank you all right uh let's go let's go youtube live what's my heart out today again six oh shoot two hours 57 minutes 21 seconds time to go all right I'm I'm punching it uh can you tell me when we're live sure we're zooming this selected now uh can I delete this what is up everybody and a welcome to the WAN Show happy Friday we've had an interesting day I was just having a long conversation with some of our leadership about overstock on some items on LTT Store and cash flow and money being tied up and then today we had the opposite problem we launched our true spec cables which by the way I've got to give credit to I think it was Dave on the branding side you say the name right it's so good it's we man we had so many different ideas for the branding they're either like this is widget number a or true spec or they nail it yeah incredible spec is so good true spec cables are here and the uh we we sold out of some lengths in like 20 minutes opposite problem good problem to have just freaking out a little bit as a you know small to medium business owner that just you know can't ever seem to get it perfectly right but but hey it's definitely better than the opposite problem uh what else we got going on today okay I found one that's good news the iphone 5s from 2013 just got a security update I just want to take a moment to highlight that because that is so cool what else we got going on reddit found a card skimmer on the canada computers checkout page which might explain what's been happening to us for a few years now um also good news Luke I want good news when so today um okay not that one not that one not that one that one's kind of neutral not that one definitely not that one I already can't Dan get rid of them not that one get rid of serability too can okay because I can't anymore I'm ready for this that one's debatable well it won't be for you but you know what someone's gonna be happy about this youtube's anti ad block system just got smarter and hard wait no no that is good for you and not other people but I'll find another one I highlighted one for you I'm making it easier where is it wait scrolling up there's no way oh yeah sure uh no no it's final count well that part I don't need to say final count for stop killing games petition verifies 1.3 million of its 1.4 million signatures well above the minimum to be formally considered by EU politicians okay so stop killing games has got some momentum that's super cool the show is brought to you today by zero bounce updf motion gray and x-blit alongside our rap partner dbrand our laptop partner razor and our chair partner also razor sharp sharp sponsorships but not a sharp chair and sure you're checking the laptop they've had razor laptops in the past have had surprisingly sharp edges okay and I think they rounded these they learned about bevels they have figured that out all right why don't we jump right into our headline topic which is okay fine it's a cw call out but we're gonna we're gonna do it anyway the long awaited more like ad show LTT true spec cables are finally freaking here after oh god were they were we actually on this for five years I think it spanned five calendar years but I think it was more like four our cables have arrived in just five hours they have almost completely sold out however we did anticipate that maybe this would happen we kind of hedged okay so we weren't sure right because on the one hand we knew that they were going to be at the pricier end of the market yep but in my humble opinion extremely fairly priced for the quality with how much they are stressed how expensive they were going to be I thought they were going to be I'm not saying they're cheap but I thought they were going to be more expensive yeah I mean I just I don't I don't know man I just really push the like they're going to cost a lot and I was like braced for it maybe I was this was the first time I saw the prices when it was online maybe I was so fixated on how much they were costing me okay because they're really they're expensive like compared to what I would normally expect my inbound cost to be on like you know a three-foot cable or a six-foot cable or whatever the cost is very high remember we sampled from in the video we said we sampled from dozens do you want to different oems you haven't seen this I don't think do you want to see where some of that cost went we have luma field scans of the cables oh let's get to that let's get to that soon let's get to that soon but first yeah so so I would so yeah they're they're very expensive because the cable stock is really expensive and and it's you know they're good right but no I don't think they're unreasonably priced at all for what they are and so I wasn't sure because we like we can guess but we we have no analog for this market category not at all you've also never sold anything from this market category not at all and so we kind of went okay well we don't want to go crazy and just buy five million dollars worth of cables or whatever because then like we we don't have we don't have venture capital in our company we can't just spend someone else's money to have a bunch of stock and then spend someone else's money to market the bejesus out of it and then and make sure we move through it we just are spending our own capital right as a company so we so we were sort of conservative on the initial load in the other thing we didn't know was what the mix would look like because we tried to do something a little bit different and offer what I call sort of tweener skews and that's a term I don't know if that's an industry term but it's certainly a term that I've heard before in the IT industry in between yeah so I remember learning about this this concept back when I was working at NCIX and I was talking to one of our senior product managers about hard drive sales I was like this is so weird to me the enthusiast who goes in the bulk aisle and then goes in compares to the packaged one right to find out which one I'm paying more or less for per hundred grams like should I buy lindore chocolates in the bulk bin or should I buy them in the package because often the package is actually cheaper but not always but in the bulk bin you can pick exactly which flavors you get so these are the kinds of considerations that I might make when I go to the grocery store so it was really confusing to me that we had a really great price on 640 Gigabyte hard drives because they weren't selling and I was like this is so weird and actually now that I'm looking at it the 750 gigs are priced really well too and those aren't selling either everyone just looks for one terabyte but the 500 gig and the one terabyte so I need a cheap one are moving like billio yeah and and so my boss was explaining to me he kind of goes yeah no it's it's um the problem with these ones is that they're tweener skews we don't make the rules people just like whatever they perceive to be nice round numbers sure and they will gravitate towards those even though you know this one might have an advantage of being a single platter design or all all these techie deckie you know details that a big nerd like you might care about the average customer doesn't care about or notice at all they just want to see nice big round number and I'm like okay um and so I had this kind of idea for the true spec cables which is sorry which is funny because sorting out all the junk in my house I found my old hard drive like bin and a bunch of 640s I didn't really think about that until now but yeah like our water bottles and like our desk pads I wanted the idea to be a fair price regardless of the size and you shouldn't need to buy a six foot cable if all you needed was four feet in order to to reach wherever was you were trying to go so I had this idea that we would we would offer in between sizes as a way to differentiate um and and as a way to sort of reinforce our our ecosystem of cable management products so our magnetic cable management solutions but I had no idea what the mix would look like was the entire industry right that everyone wants a one meter or three foot or a two meter or approximately six foot cable or was there a market for a five foot cable or a four foot cable I didn't know and it turns out everything in the middle no in between or doesn't matter go for it or don't go for it just everything in the middle when you look at the drop-down thing just the the really short ones are still there the really long ones are still there and everything like 10 feet to basically one and a half feet everything just below 10 feet and everything just above one foot is just gone yeah so that's which by the way if you're watching this and you checked them earlier and it said unavailable and you had the same confusion Iowa had for like a split second which was like why did we not order any of the ones in the middle uh no we did it just sold out unavailable means it's coming soon so they added restocks in wording just right before the show yeah um so so so yeah we wanted to get an idea of the mix so what we did was we brought in a guess and then what we also did was we ordered more raw cable stock that is sitting staged ready for production smart so what that means is that our first restock instead of coming in may or June is going to be hitting in March because we have pre-produced raw cable stock and terminations sweet and we just need to do a little bit of number crunchy go crunch and figure out exactly what lengths we're going to cut them into get them produced and get them shipped over here so we're going to get on it as fast as we can that's a good idea nobody is less happy about us being out of stock than I am I promise you that um but hopefully now that you guys can kind of see what the process looked like for that you can kind of understand why we did it I saw the most ridiculous post on reddit yeah uh typical they bring in just a little bit to hype the demand and make it seem oh my god do you really think that I didn't want to sell more cables today well some companies do do that sure for like actually not a hype beast limited edition like we're gonna make three of them supreme brick or something yeah fine whatever but these are their cables I want to sell as many cables as humanly possible we would love to sell cables come on man I want to do a super nerd version of the cables video any thoughts peeps float plate oh this is tinen um I actually I saw that and I actually flagged it for writers so we're gonna talk about it um I think I don't even know if it would go on a cw channel um if we get around to a lab channel in the near future or maybe or maybe even a full LTT release on the restock is is the way that I'm leaning right now because I think that a lot of people really want a deep dive on the cables I would so I'd be potentially down tinen I'm not committing to this right now but I would potentially be down for us to look into a rental of one of the really high speed scopes because one of the challenges for us in doing the 40 gigabit cables was visit someone possibly but even then like that will take some time but what would be what would be really uh what would be really cool is one of the challenges for us to do 40 gigabit cables was that we can't validate them internally it's really freaking fast 40 billion per second this is like incredibly short timelines here and so for you to actually measure the eye so the the the gap in the rising and falling um we don't have equipment that can do it like our cable tester I tinen if you could give me give me a hand on this but I think our cable tester was able to do up to 10 gigabit and I think we had to go external for 20 and 40 you'll have to correct me if I'm wrong on that it might have been that we could also do 20 but I know for sure up to 20 thanks tinen so I know for sure we couldn't do 40 internally so we had to we had to go outside for that validation so I think it'd be really cool for us to get our hands on the equipment and show like guys this is the timescale we're operating on and this is what our eyes look like and really really deep dive um I don't know man it's uh it could be could be a good opportunity for us to talk about the cables again get super get super geeky super nerdy um hey speaking of super geeky stuff do you want to pull up the luma field I have a few things to show in regards to super geeky stuff hold on I should probably just start a couple more things okay they come in usb a to c and USB-C to c for now lots of speed and length options for a clean setup makes a great pairing with our magnetic cable management solutions for the ultimate desk setup they also come with our trust me bro warranty so this is a limited lifetime warranty and is meant to show you guys I mean we stand behind our products regardless but this is meant to formalize how much we believe in this product obviously like any limited lifetime warranty you know there's terms and conditions with respect to okay obvious abuse and wear and tear and you know that kind of stuff um but go ahead read through the full thing um we're extremely proud of this product and we uh and we stand behind it though so if you want you can flip through the google drive link there to see all the photos and then I can load up the actual luma field link if you want to like view it in some other way and then I love that because the the on laptop luma field viewer can struggle sometimes all right what are we looking at here oh my god oh my oh my girl she's so sexy the twist when you get to see the twist from the back from the back it's pretty when you see it from the back it's pretty cool you can see all the little wires yeah dude it's uh it's thanks lucas for doing this by drives me crazy how much we take stuff like this for granted we look at a cable and we're just like cable whatever but like look at it it's beautiful isn't it yeah wait till you see some of the other ones man there there's a bunch of photos uh I mean you can just click the arrow you don't have to oh oops there you go oh my god that's a fun shot or my girl and you got to think like that's that's blown up pretty big that's really small yeah that's so like it's there's a lot of there's a lot of engineering that goes into just a quote unquote simple cable termination so you can see here's the the shielded uh coax high speed lines right here uh hey tynan what are these ones are these uh are these ground or low speed data tynan would know it'll take a sec but yeah yeah um probably cc lines thanks tynan she's gorgeous that one on the ride's fun yeah and yeah to do something there to do something properly guys nothing is so sick there's also some differences here nothing simple people that are watching um there's some differences here in like the the lengths and capability of the cables there's also a versus c and stuff like that so I believe this is one of the like higher spec ones uh Lucas was explaining to me hopefully I didn't but um tynan's addressing a question that a lot of people have had with respect to Thunderbolt so okay couple things DisplayPort alt mode should work perfectly fine with the 20 gigabit and 40 gigabit rated cables um as for Thunderbolt we are not certified in any way for Thunderbolt but what I will say is that I plugged my laptop's Thunderbolt port oops let's get that out of here not sponsored by that in fact I've been having some issues with that um so I plugged into a Thunderbolt port on my laptop and I plugged into the back of that big del 6k Thunderbolt display that's in my office and our cable worked I've been running a Thunderbolt this way off my laptop for the last six months off of one of these yeah so it depends um when Intel opened up Thunderbolt to third parties when they basically kind of gifted I believe it was Thunderbolt three was when they did it when they gifted it to usb if um all of a sudden magically regular usb cables as long as they were rated for a high enough speed started working so just because you're not Thunderbolt certified that doesn't mean that it won't work we're not promising that it will with a Thunderbolt device anymore because Thunderbolt three and usb four if I recall correctly are kind of like they're not the same because Thunderbolt is Intel's certification level where it supports some optional features um but they're like kind of equivalent-ish in terms of of bandwidth and many cables that do support usb four should support or should work between Thunderbolt devices what it won't do is it won't do the maximum Thunderbolt five bandwidth for sure that we know um not that we know like that we know of like that we know for certain that's all neat you got to keep going through those slides um sorry sorry tight tight and said that that is either the 20 gig or 40 gig which makes sense which one the one we're looking at oh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah that's not a usb two cable yeah this has too much girth and too much sex appeal to be a usb two that's the shielding god it's beautiful cable section and shielding and then this is fun this is a longitudinal scrub oh yeah so you can like see the twist going through it oh wow that's pretty cool it reminds me of a loading screen yeah for like you know playstation or something that's super cool I mean there's more but we have kind of seen most of it yeah um yeah the other one is that there is an article now on LTT Labs on true spec cable voltage drop testing yet again from sir lucas you can scroll down and see that they did test results on a few different brands of cables and they did it you've got your output voltage on the left current on the right and then your your drop over distances it's fun it's very cool check it out uh capes said Thunderbolt devices do fall back to dp alt modes so Thunderbolt monitors will work um i did not know that because i had not really looked into it since the like og Thunderbolt monitors like apple's early Thunderbolt displays and i think there was like an lg 5k back in the day that was like Thunderbolt only and those ones really were Thunderbolt only so my bad if that's the case then make of it what you will these are usb cables they're not Thunderbolt certified um another thing about this is that we have a new style for our articles we have table contents on the right and a little loading bar is you're reading through them and people kept asking us where the like rss feeds and stuff were so we called it out here so you could see it cool and then if you didn't see it there it's at the top of the latest articles thing here and then if you didn't see it there it's down here uh so i think you'll find it i think you'll be fine now anyway in a nutshell i'm really happy with how the product turned out and i'm really happy that we at least have some additional cable stock staged and we will uh we'll let you guys know as soon as as soon it's back in stock um but in the meantime what you can do is you can sign up to get a notification so if you find a length that you want you can click this button enter your email address help inform how people are interested and yes that'll help us help inform us in terms of how many we order of each size so definitely a good idea to pop in there and get a get a notify me all right uh what do you what what what do we want to do next um should we play the thing play the thing i i don't think we need to talk about the cables anymore there's okay next topic what is this thing i don't know what is this one thing what do you this is a tech topic what are you talking about willis uh this i don't okay is it a tech topic i can't see what you're pointing at highlighting on the dock it's all this oh it's tech ish internet yeah sure uh a one percenter is not what it used to mean a now remove post from me irl was outlining on r slash me irl it's a subreddit i know oh well the way you said it sounded super weird okay all right um um sure uh was outlining an adult creators income for being in the top 30 the top 37 percent of creators on the platform uh it's an adult creator platform you can put it together um yeah keep your pc really cool yeah yeah if you only use fans for that yeah not like yes other cooling methods um they they uh they stated that they brought home less than a hundred dollars a month several commenters followed up on the post outlining some examples of other industries that have similar effects for steam over 50 never made more than a thousand dollars and only the top five percent make more than two hundred thousand dollars so i just thought i just thought this was really interesting because we think of like when you think of a top one percent if you thought top one percent anything whether it's only fans whether it's steam spotify twitch youtube you might think oh you're like you're you're ballin or whatever it's also really crazy even going from um in in like any performance field basically and what i mean by that is not like singing dancing or this thing um what i mean by that is like anything that is effectively competitive if you go in in almost all of those fields if you go from the top one percent to the top like point one the variance between those is like similar to like i don't know the top one percent to the top 50 like it's it's crazy the last little bit is nuts yeah it's like the extremes at the edge of the bell curve are there's that guy i don't remember his name but he was in the nba he was benched almost constantly but he was in the nba and he made this comment of like uh yeah but i'm here and like the gap between me and you is enormous the gap between them and me is a lot closer than the gap between me and you and you like think you can make it and then i i'm going to get some of this story wrong but like a bunch of people challenged them and he went out and played basketball against them and just wiped all of them well yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah brian uh scalabrine yeah yeah yeah that guy so if you want a more accurate i'm closer to brawn than you are to me yeah that was his quote yeah it's like so uh another one and and to be clear none of this is like verified it just it was really interesting to me to hear these anecdotal stories but we have lots of examples of this from youtube from twitch from all these different places so for spotify someone piped up saying that their band which is in the top 20 never made more than $500 in a year and that's not just on spotify that's across all services yeah so you can be one of the top one out of you can be more popular in terms of streaming than four out of every five bands on spotify and we're talking like like 40 bucks a month and this is exaggerated by platforms like a couple meals that you can create an account for in sure roughly a minute but even if you look at more older school traditional businesses like the competitive nature of restaurants yeah for example meanwhile on twitch meanwhile on twitch uh elijah put this together for the topic someone with about 20 viewers which you would look at and go bro give up yeah you know if you were a negative nelly yeah big mean guy yeah someone with that with that 20 viewers would be in the top one percent on the platform to hit 0.25 you would have just 120 viewers and like i can tell you as someone who has seen twitch checks before that you ain't like working full time with 120 viewers unless you are able to also leverage off-platform revenue sources i suspect there are some people that do but this is we're getting into like it's it's on average probably not it's gonna be tough that's gonna be tough and then with an average viewership of 1500 that would put you in the top 0.01 percent this this exactly lines up with my comment top one percent is 20 top 0.1 percent is 1500 like the the range you start getting is insane in those like little percentages yep so anyway this this this reddit thread sparked a lot of discussion about how concentrated earnings are and spending among top creators across all these industries and even had people comparing this to real-world wealth distributions such as salaries so this was this was a pretty cool little table here okay so the 1% right you think of a lot of people would think of the 1% as like the problem with society right like we had the 1% occupy movement and all that so the 1% on only fans is getting like shy of a quarter million dollars a year and that's your top that's your top one out of a hundred so there are 99 people showing their butthole that are getting less than that specifically that out of every hundred out of every hundred uh and then real world right so you're basically 1% you're like a successful dentist if that kind of makes sense and i don't know about you guys but i never really a successful dentist is 600k a year in the states yeah depends what you're doing not if all you do is like cleanings all day but if you're doing if you're doing anything beyond that yeah yeah absolutely um if you're running your own practice in particular and like i don't know about you guys but personally i never really felt like my dentist was the problem growing up with society um definitely like i'd like a good surgeon would be able to bring that in so that's not in italy this is fair enough yeah we're talking we're talking usd here um and then what's what's really wild is the fall off you can be in the top two to three percent and now you're still making like a like a good income here you're still making a good income here but look at the fall off 90th percentile dentist in the u.s is 263k um is that okay but private practice owners report oh i already uh private practice owners report over 600 so yeah if you own your own practice and it's going well okay sure um by the time you get out of the top 10 percent this is wild you're literally making one 360th am i doing the math here right one 360th oh wow yeah in the in the top 12 of the top 0.1 percent that is flipping crazy that it is again a lot of these platforms where you can create an account in a minute yeah um are kind of like this the barrier of entry is effectively zero zero plus anyway we're not doing a deep dive into this topic deep but it was just something that it was something that i just thought was pretty interesting um because i and like obviously what now that really is a low barrier of entry i mean there are chastity belts i'm just saying it is it is low yeah yeah that makes sense oh man full plane chat you're doing good okay sorry um i just i just thought i thought it was pretty interesting because i think that um that this sort of perception that uh just sort of let anyone who's kind of getting views on instagram or you know through their reels or you know anyone who's getting views on youtube or twitch or other websites um it's quite an accomplishment like raking it in or whatever um and that's not necessarily the case at all unless they are people really are yeah but like you know clearly you know i i have been i've worked hard my team is amazing and i've been very successful on social media but it's not a it's not a given at all um and so i don't i don't know man i just i thought it was interesting that's all so i brought it to the wandshow hopefully it was interesting and the only takeaway wasn't just butt jokes it's a pretty good takeaway yeah i'm pretty okay with that takeaway okay yeah Windows phone fans rejoice next computing's upcoming next phone dual boots Android and Windows and even db and Linux let's go when when docked okay uh the device runs the full ARM version of Windows with a custom skin made to look and feel like the old Windows phone ui that is so cool it's kind of xda has a great article on this this is really cool it's built around the qualcomm dragon wing qcm 6490 a modified snapdragon 77 uh sorry 778 g uh when docked you get a full desktop environment and that's cool but uwp or universal Windows platform is no longer recommended to developers so Windows apps don't have the response of design required to adapt to small screens that is unfortunate xda content director rich woods said the experience of launching a Windows app on the phone isn't too pleasant yeah that sounds about right i suspect that's a kind way of saying it yeah i mean i can't say that i super miss uwp because there were definitely some problems um around gaming with it if i recall correctly i honestly have not thought about uwp for quite some time i'm not convinced man this is this is not uwp but but i had to download and install minecraft last night that's yeah that's just with microsoft store our Windows store i know so i went to the minecraft site went to go download it i was like oh nice i don't have to go through the store because that's the worst experience ever so i can just download it that's good download it go to the launcher it failed the install because i didn't read the little part there's there's a hyper text link it's not even a button it's just a hyper text link that's like make sure you're signed into the store i didn't read that i just clicked install so then i went and signed into the store it was already signed in it just wanted to launch yeah so okay whatever and then i click install again download goes to the complete end never completes have to close that then i try to launch it again and this time it i try it all the launcher does is it launches the store then the store launches the launcher again if you want to really what are we doing if you want to really play on hard mode set up a computer for your for your minor dependent and then try to play with them seriously it took me like an hour plus to get all the permission sorted out for me to play multiplayer games with my kids who are in my family unit did you play minecraft together minecraft dungeons minor all right you know what i don't know if you can ding for himself i think you know no i dinged you yeah but i i was checking to see if you've made that joke he didn't though he said minor it's a pun he just didn't know he made his own pun you gotta stop saying minor doctor disrespect gonna show up oh and maybe a few policies the doors are locked we're okay a gaggle of politicians i can hear them driving up now we're flying i mean at their age waddling yeah um uh man i had a point don't know what it was quality show i honestly i find microsoft universal sign and stuff is just universally terrible well i it's not universal yeah and oh like how is it that i sigh i they they force me to sign into Windows and then i still have to sign in again to the store again to edge and again into minecraft launcher to remember my login don't ask yes thank you stop it's so annoying i always click yes out of hope i just know it won't work but i'm like please i know me too every time i sign into teams i say don't ask me again and this application only not device wide because this is my home computer i just need to message somebody on teams right now and it's and it's frustrating because they have like amazing compatibility with everything and stuff it's just so bad frustrating use multi mc is that some other like launcher client thing i'm not surprised there is one um that makes a lot of sense to me multi mc what is this alternative launcher yeah okay cool yeah maybe we'll grab that instead it's like pretty annoying the microsoft one is pretty annoying all right oh there's arguments there's other alternative launchers okay all right i think i found the the Linux community of minecraft people uh i will figure this out on my own yeah please yes yeah let's let's talk about something pretty trash um i am i am not really that happy with this so yeah this sucks this is uh from best buy and this is in their like product details why does your site say the comparable value is four hundred fifty nine dollars the aser website says the msrp is two ninety nine okay so here's the answer uh i don't know this is no no this is from uh someone uh but basically best buy oh my god has started pulling this horse shit where instead of showing a regular price and just you know a special price or whatever their prices they've added this compare value so this is a two hundred and ten dollar monitor which honestly yeah doesn't look like a terrible deal for two hundred and ten dollars thirty one and a half inches one hundred eighty hertz tell me the resolution what's the resolution why is that 2560 by 1440 you know what looks great uh not at four hundred and sixty dollars definitely not that so what is it what is a comparable value our comparable value prices are based on the price at which the product or a comparable item was or in the future will be offered for sale by best buy marketplace sellers manufacturers suppliers or other retailers online or in store such prices may have been identified by best buy or provided by marketplace sellers manufacturers or suppliers purchases from best buy offer many advantages over purchases from others and we invite you to learn more about our pricing the services we provide and our price match policy that's just obviously ridiculous you know that they have like gold leaf burgers that cost like a thousand dollars yeah so mcdonald's could just be like well i mean a big mac is comparable to yeah it's available now for uh you know one thousand dollars off yeah um yeah yeah yeah snow pig put it pretty well lul so it's any number you want to quite literally is what that means yes if they've ever seen it they can kind of go yes that one please no not even they said we'll be in the future so yeah so they don't even have to have seen it right so i'm kind of thinking this needs a dedicated LTT video where are we basically go okay look starting at compare at and what was the other one that really made me mad uh hold on hold on there was there was another one that i wanted to add to it um and up to starting at compare at and up to need to go they've they've got to just be starting out is incredibly annoying yeah because what does it even mean there's almost always some like obvious junk thing in there yeah there are exceptions so the current gen mac mini starting at just buy it love it love love that computer it's like actually an outstanding value for what it is but by and large starting at means here's a craptastic configuration that we created so that we can have this price but the one that you really want costs way more like actually way more and we're making a ton of margin on those upsells and then it's honestly it's the same thing for up to i mean we ran into this um oh i don't think this video is up yet well it's coming soon we finally got our hands on an rtx pro 6000 so that i don't know kind of inside baseball we tried a new workflow for this video let us know if you like the video um it was prepped by the Labs closer to like a ShortCircuit product sheet and then instead of just hosting a ShortCircuit off of the product sheet i spent a couple hours turning it into an LTT script and so it's like an LTT but it's like a hybrid between like the Labs sort of product test workflow the ShortCircuit um like host prep workflow and the LTT writing guidance editing workflow like so we're trying some stuff we actually did a very similar thing on our Ryzen 9850x3d video which was also that one was actually written in an hour and a half by me with some really good prep done by the Labs team let's go and i think i want to say i want to say it was shoot was it pluf or elai who did the guidance whatever one of the one of the writers one of those two i'm pretty sure i did the guidance for it and i just feel like having people do smaller bite-sized chunks of the work in this way is actually helping their creative juices flow a little bit better we talked about this in writer's meeting today but um like i thought that i thought that both elijah and pluf who have been the main guys who have been doing guidance on these videos that i've been writing recently really did their best visual guidance work for the editors on those videos that i wrote which is kind of unintuitive because you'd think that as you're writing you would have a better idea in your mind for what you want visually i think i get why it would work actually but what what elijah said was like it's it's more just like fatigue from looking at something for too long and when you're coming into it fresh and alt and offering like a like a new perspective they're seeing this thing and being like oh i would like to see this here let me go find that thing and suggest it exactly that's cool so yeah it's i don't know it's it's pretty cool but um what was i talking about we did the we did the oh right up to so up to we found was doing some extremely heavy lifting when it came to clock speeds on that rtx pro card and we ran into multiple situations where it actually underperformed compared to an rtx 50 90 even though it has three times the v RAM and costs three times the price um it has 10 more coup de course it theoretically i think either clocks the same or higher basically there was no downside normally these pro cards right they'll have more coup de course but to account for the extra power they'll they'll advertise a lower clock speed in this case it didn't it just had more everything so theoretically it should just be faster across the board but it wasn't and we found that sometimes it wasn't clocking as high because up to up to sure compare at yeah starting at i'm just i'm tired of it man yeah yeah yeah it's probably a good opportunity to discuss dark patterns bayzag says it's like it's like saying the new LTT true spec cables start at a dollar but just having a skew that nobody would want and pricing it at a dollar and then everything else is you know 15 to 30 bucks we do something else that's kind of funny oh what do we do uh well the the 0.032 feet cable is the same price as the 16.4 feet cable well yeah because okay well that's so you could you could say starting at 2999 canadian it also ends at 2999 canadian you could do that you could have a really short cable that was free and then just out of stock all the time oh is that illegal probably starting at free you could sell one and then i think it would be illegal you could restock one of them every like quarter not a bad idea there are multiple prices it's complicated oh wait really yeah there are multiple prices for some of them oh wait there is yeah but it's it's not by that much so you reach a certain point where it where it becomes not just about the labor cost and like the actual size and weight of it start to matter and the sheer length of cable stock that you're using do start to matter oh there is yes yes yes yes yes it does vary a little bit not not not as much compared to um other things and it seems to only get cheaper than what i said so i don't feel too bad sorry i'm just noticing something here that i need to sometimes deal with spending a session of noticing is is something i've learned is valuable from wendell sometimes you just need to notice things yeah i'm noticing a thing that i need to follow up okay cool um anyway so yeah not cool best buy and the thing that annoys other retailers permission to do the same thing and then all of a sudden nobody knows what to compare anything at unless of course as part of that video we may be kind of review various price comparison tools cool and shopping tools nice that way it's more than just because so we need to make vinegar i mean look right like i we did that i don't want to be angry anymore video recently right and i don't and and i do think that there's a lot of upside in in the world of tech right there's a lot to be really happy about there's a lot to be really grateful for but that doesn't mean that we shouldn't call out bad behavior when we see it i just i want us to be really focused on offering up solutions to it if that makes sense at the same time like still approaching everything that we do with constructiveness at its core if that makes sense because i've seen some people go okay well so what Linus you're you you you don't want to be negative so you're just going to be positive about everything absolutely not but i want to have an intent i want to have a point to the the the negative things that we're we're shining a light on i want to accomplish something through it i heard from a company that has gone through some some difficult challenges and you know restructuring and rebuilding over the last little while and one of the things that and this was an employee of the company not a member of the leadership team but one of the things that they flagged for me was that you know some of the some of the coverage of the struggles that they had gone through did not in any way help them turn the ship around and if anything made it much more difficult for people to stay employed and people to get paid and to and to and to please their customers it was just in some ways you know there were good elements of it you know where the kick in the teeth are kicking the teeth kicking the butt was needed some motivation was needed but the the destructive rather than constructive approach was like super unhelpful for anyone involved and i thought that was uh that was a really interesting perspective to get from someone who's gone through something like that obviously you can't name but i'm interested yeah i can just tell you yeah oh yeah yeah that makes a lot of sense yeah apparently they're like doing a lot better now and things are going good and uh they want to like partner on some stuff and we're we're really we're really excited to see them come back because we they've been an innovator for many many years and uh yeah they you know made some mistakes but i don't know much about it i think how you how you recover from your mistakes says a lot more about you than whether or not you ever make them what else we what else we got what else the mistakes are but yeah okay yeah you know what that's an interesting i that that's an interesting conversation i saw that there was a um there was a convicted murderer who was who was um appointed to like uh like a police advisory board of some sort like a like a citizen advisory board and um this caused like a major fracture within the community where uh it wasn't that he he didn't hide anything but they like didn't ask and just you know and went through it and there were people on both sides um some that were basically like look that's a felony offense you like killed someone uh you should have nothing to do with any kind of law enforcement ever ever ever ever ever and then there were other people that were going okay but hold on this guy like seriously reformed and has spent considerable energy trying to make amends and when you're doing advisory stuff uh yeah someone just pointed out like if catch me if you can i mean i don't think you killed people but uh catch me if you can is a good example of like sometimes you need people who are informed from the other side to help you be better at what you're doing yeah i um anyway i i honestly i don't i literally i'm not even trying to trying to go all centrist on this i don't have a take on it i don't i don't know how i would feel about that uh if i if i was someone that had a connection to the victim i'd feel i can tell you i'd feel super emotional about that and i'd be i'd feel very negative about it if i was removed from it though and you know looking at at at some of the well like you said like practical um benefits potentially of having you know a reformed offender involved i i i don't know it's really hard for me to say um i think we're getting into topics that we're far from experts on oh yeah i not that that isn't effectively always true but like i don't think that's always true i mean a little bit we've been an expert on something at least once always is such a big word i talked about buttholes earlier in the show maybe that was it i mean i've got one i think that entitles me to an opinion sounds like it to me i think like yeah i don't know it's uh are people redeemable is maybe not a topic for the WAN Show i'm just sitting here thinking like should i say anything is that probably not we're gonna move on sure um what was what was that how did we get on that i don't know does it matter sure i really don't know like maybe it does maybe it doesn't i don't know i do think you making a video about the best by thing could be good yeah i want to be a good time to yet again highlight uh dark patterns yeah stuff like that yeah dark patterns a little bit multifat i think that could come later on in the video yeah but i think it'd be a little multifaceted um but yeah speaking of things that suck microsoft says it handed over bitlocker encryption keys when the government asked cool microsoft has confirmed that it handed them over uh and the f to the fbi during a criminal investigation last year and says that this isn't unusual yes it is apparently not but it should be to me that means we've done this a bunch um according to the company it receives around 20 requests per year and will comply again if the government follows the proper legal processes if you sign into Windows with a microsoft account bitlocker keys are automatically backed up to microsoft servers tying them to your account and devices from microsoft's perspective turning those over is just another lawful data request but privacy advocates argue that quietly holding encryption keys defeats the point of encryption that thing that thing he said just interesting microsoft notes users can request to delete stored keys and local account work around still work they're trying to make that not a thing to be clear did they actually say that it's become such a hassle though did microsoft actually note that local account work around still work that's crazy uh but most users don't even know this is something they can do is that did they actually say that i i don't i don't see that in the Windows central article the way this is worded it could mean that they just noted that you could request to delete your stored keys and also they didn't say this but it might be what they meant okay cool if they said that that's crazy i doubt it i don't think they did more bad news lg subscription program for audio visual devices lg launched a new subscription program called lg flex in the uk whoa uh in the uk for premium devices such as tv soundbars monitors and speakers they have partnered up with ray low which offers subscription services for other brands such as dyson apple and nintendo i've never even heard of this me either is that a uk thing but the devil is ray low lg flex subscribers can opt for a one to three year subscription with longer terms having a lower monthly payment at the end of the term the customer can decide to get a free upgrade with a new subscription that's not free with a new subscription keep paying monthly or return the device to leave oh to leave the subscription terms i guess ours technically calculated that under a three year plan the subscription would cost more than buying a tv after 27 months okay so here here's a nintendo switch to refurbished oh very good ray low certified refurbished okay very good uh 36 months would cost me 11 pounds 99 a month okay calculatrice so 12 times 36 is 432 pounds nintendo switch to refurbished no no i'm gonna compare to brand new okay i because i'm curious smith smith toys is this a uk thing no idea sure i'm happy it has a little banner like you see that little dark pattern there yes i'm happy yeah what was that it was a cookie banner yeah it was a cookie banner yikes wow that's a yikes 385 brand new not refurbished oops what did i do here what were you calculating uh cool yep there's your problem right there there you go 432 so literally i could get the nintendo switch to mario kart world bundle so you get a game so if i plan to have this thing for three years then i should not do this and you could buy a snack you could get the console a game and a snack and own all of those you know you might eat the snack but you could own all of those forever this one's so weird i know that carrier subsidies for phones are not as much of a thing like overseas but as someone where who grew up with carrier subsidized phones where you effectively pay for the phone monthly anyway seeing buying like a non-carrier locked for like the price of what a plan used to be yeah yeah it's like what like i used to get i used to get stuff with this along with the phone yeah um wow okay so this would cost me like a couple hundred bucks a year for an s24 ultra that doesn't actually seem that bad the iphone seemed like at the end though yeah i might not own it at the end you have to give it back yeah there's no there's no not giving it well okay hold on this is another one we actually shot a video on this week i don't know if you know this but um oh yeah yeah i remember now yeah you could you you you only get to keep it if you just keep paying monthly i don't think they have like a pay the rest and buy out so we actually did a video on this this week hp has a rent your rental laptop service now yep so hold on wait one of the hold on relax one of the skews um comes with a sim card and your rental includes your data plan for it it includes uh next day onsite service and you can just apply for an upgrade so when we were looking at it we compared it a a couple of different ways we compared it to buying the device outright and like where's your like where's your break even point there right and then we also compared it to reselling where's your break even point if you resell your old device and then the last one that we looked at was okay um but what if you are like a frequent what if what if you're a frequent upgrade and you would be like buying a new device and then we looked at it both in terms of if you right right right if we've looked at it in terms of if you resold and in terms of like if you didn't if you repurposed um there are skews that we've looked at and we went okay this might not be absolutely crazy depending on who you are and what exactly it is that you're trying to accomplish if you're someone who is not tech savvy does not want to deal with buy sell trade and just wants a working laptop all the time there's like one skew that is like a pretty decent laptop and comes with the data plan and like could potentially make sense and it seems like um hp kind of figured out that the value was too good for some of them and the other program for gaming laptops that they launched later it was pretty hard for us to find anything that made any sense have i been a good boy can i respond now okay do everyone there you go that's honestly pretty much all i have to say yeah as long as you can count on them to keep the price the same then it's great except well yeah this exhibit a um however however we actually found that the best deal was to rent it for a year return it and then buy the same one after it had depreciated for a year which is interesting that's kind of funny just i so that is kind of funny however however however however we found that the pricing for this particular model on the buy it outright so your compare at uh was felt really high compared to what we could find this particular laptop for in the used market today so basically what i'm trying to say is your point isn't invalid and this whole you'll own nothing and you'll like it thing is toxic but that doesn't mean that there might not be deals out there and we should be open to something that's a better deal and then immediately closed once it isn't a better deal if if there isn't a reasonable alternative and i don't feel like they're going out of their way to make it so that there isn't a reasonable alternative and it takes constant upkeep a subscription is fine to me yeah but in a lot of cases that's not it's like the the heated seats subscription like no you can just leave that could just be a button you don't need to constant upkeep that that is unnecessary that should not be a subscription go away and it depends on and it depends on how you use it too like if i used game pass to play a whole bunch of single player games over the span of a year and then i canceled my game pass subscription it could be a freaking great value if you're playing an entire single player game a month yeah it's probably still not that bad no yeah however paying playing new ones i don't know if microsoft is publishing new full fat triple a titles once a month well yeah but you might have a backlog it like true you check out what's on games are not going to be that high value sure when it's at 30 usd a month however however if you're the kind of person who know life's one game for six months at a time it's crazy to be paying for game pass right so it's look i'm just saying you know horses for courses sometimes something can be a really great value and then the next month it can't be and we just have to have the discipline to cut off that subscription when it's not a good value anymore but that's how they get you right that's the lock in that they want they want the laziness lock in if that makes sense yeah i'd never heard of this relo thing before but uh oh man this is always funny to me 4.5 stars on trust pilot it's not clickable okay is it though relo trust pilot it's trust pilot one of those ones that it's basically just like you bribe them to have a good score i don't know okay okay they do have 4.5 stars on trust but how do they have 21 000 reviews and they're all five star do we believe do we believe this though i mean i don't it came next day promptly it was in pristine condition wrapped up perfectly feel happy with the phone it's a perfect gift to my kid bro who's been down these days hope it will lift his spirits there is no way that this is real is there some reward for leaving trust pilot reviews this reviewer was automatically invited to write a review following their experience with the company this type of review is automatically labeled verified automatically good service is that a link deliver on time this one i actually believe i believe that one i believe this one yep the why would you leave a four star review and this is the only thing you had to say about it um i kind of might believe janine's one as well sorted my problem i had and very grateful for the help and understanding they were problem solved and very nice was the manager i don't know dude that does not sound like an lm output no but it's shocking to me oh check our history yeah yeah i'm about to it's shocking to me how much spam doesn't seem to use an lm output like the number of bots that are not writing like might be more expensive i guess bother all right it's working anyways all right janine so four days ago on trust pilot very understanding and compassion very efficient and lovely friendly i just so positive of low well what is low well debt collecting no fucking combination way is brutal no way there's no way no shot let's keep going we look too far into the abyss let's keep going back the next one run okay so very adjective and adjective very adjective and a couple more adjectives lovely friendlies great for more than dot com i'm gonna use lovely friendly often insurance agency oh this is so paid so paid you just reviewed a device rental company an insurance agency and a debt collector four stars or more these are the four star reviews that are designed to make the five stars seem plausible brother there is just no way that this is a real person sorry i would like to see more there's a three every just ring doorbell once and don't bat on the door loudly frightens me what are you talking about they just want the person to ring the doorbell once not like because it scared them logistic come on now it's just esl stuff uh no it's not this is not a real person okay i'm sorry there's no way sure but like that sentence is you know there's no way this is real also like okay what's her first language well okay i i have some familiarity with the patterns that you might see in written language for various first languages most of the people i've encountered whose english second language looks like this do not look like this i can tell you that much origins last what is brsk internet service provider dude these are all spam now it is it is possible that this is human spam that is possible i also think it is highly probable that this is highly highly probable that this is bot spam as well all right anyway so congratulations lg on the partnership with ray low did you finish getting through this topic yeah you did okay let's move on should we probably do uh sponsors we should really get sponsors done okay or we can do merge messages you know what let's get sponsors done

thank you i appreciate that sock two type two that does make it easier to say the show is also brought to you by u pdf when working with pdf's most readers can be pretty limiting in what you can do with files u pdf is a pdf editor annotator and converter that works across your desktop and your phone u pdf is added cross platform ai tools that all work with one account on as many devices as you need you can edit text and images like uh it just as though your pdf is a word document or you can use ocr to turn physical scans into searchable documents and convert things into dot doc or excel sheets without breaking your layout if you need help finding sources or summarizing pdf their ai scholar research tool can speed up the process hit up the link in the description to grab their new 2026 discount and upgrade your workflow with u pdf legit useful tool though actually um shout out people who just don't use pdf's in the first place yeah big shout out for those times when we're stuck with one shout out u pdf all right should we do merch messages yeah if you are not through wait Dan you baited me what do you mean you put up the sign it needs to say check out chats oh did we decide on check out your ads well we're definitely not calling that anymore i ended up in a whole debate with someone on the subreddit over this where basically they were like i fundamentally disagree with Linus's objection to the word merch to describe the products they make because i view merch as something that i buy for a higher price that's just to support the person i like and i was like buddy okay you you just you weren't even done your sentence and you proved my point we don't want anyone's charity and we respect your hard-earned money enough to make products not merch products not merch that are a good value and good quality and that we stand behind so calling them merch just doesn't work for us i i like supporting other creators i've bought a decent amount of random merch stuff um i'm a huge supporter of something that i think we were at the the front of the curve for which is like youtubers getting into like real products um a huge range of youtubers by the way not just like reviewer people i think that's super cool it's a really cool industry it's really cool having people stand behind their product and be excited about things and blah blah blah vary into all that a lot of merch is just trash well yeah that's the problem too manufactured waste uh so we're trying to get away from that that's all it is it's tough because it's like literally the word just means merchandise which is definitely exactly what it is but then words are how people use them realistically and the way people are using merch in this context is describing it as something that is uh at a cost level that does not equal the value return that you're getting um but you're doing so in order to specifically just support someone which is not the goal of the store so it makes sense that they might want to redefine um hopefully that makes sense all right cool so check out chats if you're new to the show the way to send in a message is not via super chats or twitch bits or anything like that instead you can send a check out chat all you got to do to do so i think we need a better name than check out we're working on okay we're gonna call it that for now all right all you got to do is head over to lttstore.com and you can throw oh tech commerce communicate tech pants tech pants are here oh tech pants okay add to cart all you got to do is add it to your cart and you will see the uh well whatever we're gonna get this updated don't look at it the point is you will see this you can type a message and it will go to producer Dan who will uh put it in the you know one of the little boxes that appears or he will respond to it or he will curate it for me and luke to respond to oh you do have to actually complete your order listen it's been a very chaotic week i'm doing my best product prompts is pretty okay really peepee merge yeah exactly so if people buy a lot they send a big peepee yeah do you verify your gamers do you actually verify your gamers do you make sure that they are verified actual gamers i mean i've been known to do that before yes interesting do i have to do that now i think we should still cook on the name i don't know if product prompts is merge messages flows nicely we can we can find something and we can just make it cc instead of cock and then it's like you know also credit card give us your give us your cc give us five ccs of love that sucks through the that's terrible through the internet i'm not saying i'm not saying peepee is the way to go but i i think well well i mean we could try it out i've got a pretty short peepee here from sure deal howdy lld any update on the diy home battery has it made you more conscious on how you spend daily um there is an update coming it has been in the works for quite a while uh pankrat's i'm one of our new writers danie who is now off probation have been working on it uh we have our so we already did part one which you saw which was there were a lot of comments about what could have been better it's great thank you keep them coming uh part two will be the proof of concept for what will be the the final deployment and then part three will be the scale deployment and i gotta say being conscious of how much i'm spending isn't helping me spend any less right now which is frustrating because i just have a bunch of stuff to do before i can sort of tone down our energy use but it is absolutely something that i want to do at home because yeah it's it's a lot is what i'll say let's see another one here we're going hey d ll any new updates on the solar at your house what works well and what would you change now having had the solar system for a couple years okay yeah updates so um the plumbers who plumbed it into the walls of the pool they filled it and didn't tell me or maybe they did tell me and i forgot anyway all the pvc piping cracked in the winter so the plumbing side of it doesn't work at all as for the solar side the good news is they're perfectly functioning solar panels and we got a deal from the manufacturer on them so it doesn't really matter if the plumbing doesn't work because i didn't pay more for them than i would have for regular solar panels i'm still up on the deal i guess apparently maybe probably not the point is in vancouver solar panels were more of a hey so that we can like make content and it's cool um and less of a practical you should definitely spend money on this because we just don't get enough sunny year uh but man there's there's days when it's a sunny day and i'm looking at i'm like dang that is wow that is a lot of power coming out of these and that's pretty neat oh man there's a robot messaging me about like a bunch of bunch of you could call sorry ginger-nutted great name info plain chat uh gave a really interesting idea you could call them tweets oh my god we can can we see oh i would why not i think so wasn't there somebody going after the trademark already um okay well uh yeah i don't uh it's not very good okay it's funny cool yeah definitely it's definitely a meme it is a meme um check out tweets now would probably be since we're since we're talking about um check out messages calm that's kind of neat calm you know i don't know i'd send a message through the comport that's not too bad check out messages is better than check out chats check out messages is better comport that's that's actually not bad we're doing comms comms now i check out messages i like comms i like the abbreviation more than the wording but i think that's fine okay i'll see store comms yeah and if someone sounds like a really strong one it could be like a calm dom they send a lot we have another thing to maybe talk about do you want to talk about it now this thing we should probably finish talking about like all the products that we launched this week oh that's that one last that one last for sure so um luke is actually oh oh luke is i'm wearing everything decked out head to toe in um a couple of legitimately really exciting new products for us so he's uh look at my butt he's where everyone look at my butt i mean okay but okay hold on don't go away yet so what's cool about the tech pants is that yeah cool they're very you went and stood right behind the laptop for crying out loud luke now you got the do not put it there hey no i do i still need you to stand time stamp that no don't time stamp that no he doesn't want to do that okay move that where do you okay the point is what's cool about the tech pants is they're very office attire friendly they are but they have extra hidden pockets if you're more of a cargo kind of boy so there's a pocket there you could stash a phone there that pocket actually goes all the way across the front by the way so you can actually put like a ton of stuff in there grill cheese sandwich while following the office dress code so there's like a little hidden zip um there's another hidden zip on the right hip i believe um in the seam so you've got your regular pocket no no up there you go oh there's a hidden zip right there you'll figure it out oh god okay yep there we go so you've got yeah so you can put like something that you want to be a little bit more secure in there uh to be clear it doesn't have like rfid blocking lining or anything like that i'm not talking about that kind of secure i'm talking like just you don't want anyone to put their hand in your pocket and notice it uh zipper pockets on the regular pockets as well and then at the back i believe uh hold on yes so in addition to the two back pockets there's a hidden zipper pocket right where your right finger is i believe there it is or is it just a pocket i think it's just yeah just okay extra pocket so they're kind of like uh they're kind of like a an office friendly like cargo but not a cargo pant they're like cousin is a cargo pant yes yes they are not and they don't really give the the visual indication no they're like a white collar cargo pant really really excited about this product it's one of the things that we've been legitimately extremely successful with is office friendly but really tech forward clothing people asked about the fit of the polo it feels longer i believe which i like they are jamie was saying something that it was a bit longer yeah it's a bit of a longer cut probably if i stand up and measure it on my longness it's slightly longer than normal i would say which kind of makes sense so i think that can maybe look a little bit professional and is probably nicer for the people that want to tuck it in yep so just like some of our other sort of office attire uh we've added just you know a little splash of fun a little splash of color obviously it's a high quality garment so it's a 10 cell cotton blend um so really soft really smooth feel custom knit coloring cuffs plus a do not drop branded button uh or actually sorry all the buttons are um they just have like a little cute can you see it they say do not drop on oh that's just a subtle LTT touch adorable you're not going to read that unless you're like the person wearing the shirt so it won't it won't stand out in an office environment and there is LTT branding on it even though it's probably pretty hard to tell oh yeah very small embroidered right here black on black LTT branding so should be totally fine right above the nips i think i i've been really happy with the photos coming from creator right house for a long time now i think the photos for this shoot were like sick really captured the vibe really effectively they've been doing a really good job i just want to give props and then there's one more product launch today i know what a day for product launches we had the cables we have the premium polo we have the tech pants uh tech pants i think have been in in development for like two years or something like these feel nice they're really nice these feel very nice uh people have seen me wearing them on camera a few times i've been i've been demoing them for quite some time i've been really pleased with the stain resistance of them uh that's not to say that that's necessarily an advertised feature i don't want to set incorrect expectations or anything like that but for a light colored garment to survive in my environment where i live in is pretty remarkable um there oh there's a couple other little other little things there's a subtle safety feature so there's a reflective stripe inside the cuff that becomes visible when it's rolled up so if you were say for example someone who bikes to and from work and you still wanted to look workplace appropriate you can roll them up and there's a reflective stripe in there cool i think that's probably enough that's neat i wouldn't have noticed that i think it's not like you don't really feel it which is good a gusseted crotch so just extra extra comfort whether you're biking or just running between meetings or whatever i did notice like i i put them on and walked for a bit and it was nice and then i came to the set here except put them on right for the show and sat down and when i sat down i was like oh yeah that's pretty get a comfy they're really nice they're pretty comfortable all right i don't mind wearing these for a bit all right luke intro it intro it last one last product this might be my favorite packaging for anything we've ever done it's so cute my goodness i even like that when it's like a little bit out it just feels like there's sand at the bottom nice i like it so much i'm so happy with these i i sort of knew these were coming wait can i have that yeah okay one quick thing i'm going to jump in with we are rebranding yes we're rebranding the precision screwdriver that has the bit storage in it the pro um what does that mean i don't know we'll find out later but this is going to be the pro now i heard the whole story and agree with it but i do wonder what would line us say if this was like a tech product and that it's pro and that it got renamed um oh that's interesting w w ls yeah i'd probably be annoyed with it but i understand why we did it exactly i don't necessarily disagree and there makes sense there have been times when that rationale did not exist so i don't know man trying to capture it there it is hey check it out check it out yeah and like that's cool and it still has the i'm not gonna fully oh you i spoiled it it still has the magnetic door but behind the magnetic door Floatplane exclusive precision driver i gotta line these up before people get upset with Floatplane color scheme i will i will fix it for the ocds i got you hold on hold on okay it's all good okay it's it's it's all right it's okay i fixed it also is the anodization on that driver incredible or what there now it's in focus it's okay luke's new to being on camera he's never done it before first time no that probably is my eye stock so i can't see so i can't tell you could get glasses that it still has this i they're in the car devil nice satisfying bearing yeah i mean it's the same driver yeah it just looks cool it has multiple different colors of blue because the Floatplane blue is not exactly an official thing so uh which is kind of nice yep still comes with the detachable magnetic parts tray with the little segments in it and uh yep it's everything that you already knew and loved about the the precision kit pro which is what it is now but uh a little more blue available exclusively to folks who are subscribed to LTT on Floatplane dot com all right okay there now we're through all the products that we launched this week geez only a couple that was crazy how many how many cable excuse were there like 60 yeah something like that damn yeah that it's been it's been a whole thing there's been a couple merch messages today just a few okay but what else we got for today what do you want to talk about we could talk about iran's internet blackout this is brutal man it's now been 22 days since the iranian authorities have imposed a near total communications blackout in response to anti-government protests during which has many as 30 000 protesters are thought to have been killed uh fixed line internet mobile data and internet voice calls have all been cut off with domestic communications and starlink communications also seriously disrupted uh some connectivity is now slowly being restored but the iranian government is reportedly utilizing deep packet inspection and a white listing system to impose what an anonymous iranian cybersecurity professional has called digital isolation international internet access won't be reopened until at least march but it will never return to its previous form according to an iranian government spokesperson this new approach is also expected to have a major impact on the effectiveness of vpns and tour connections so this is seriously um it's not good a problem and a trend that as technologically driven control tools get more and more sophisticated and better understood is only going to increase in certain parts of the world hopefully hopefully hopefully not all of them and uh as few as possible so just wanted to flag this for you guys this is a real problem our stance is that this is terabad uh just was there anything to add mr luke i don't think so um um starlink is an interesting one because i'm not sure necessarily how they are like jamming it or stopping it i don't know if they've requested that it doesn't because i know that that is a thing that you can do not sure not necessarily that they would comply i'm not saying that but i know that you could ask for that um in in places like china with the great firewall uh vpn usage is like a extremely open secret like everybody kind of knows i have a feeling iran might not go quite the same route with that this is yeah this is what i'm kind of thinking i also don't know exactly how this is happening like would it even be possible are they even connected um at all far now asks i wonder if the global internet is dying if there will only be regional nets that's exactly what this means like ru net's a thing china's own firewalled internet ecosystem is a thing um the tools exist and it's big business providing these tools to authoritarian regimes uh yeah it's yeah it's happening it's coming yeah magic cheeseburger says mulvad vpn apparently has several anti-censorship methods to obfuscate vpn traffic i wonder if they can get around this packet inspection i hope so um you know i i hope that the that the vpn companies win the arms race here but i um that's i mean obviously this is i feel like when it when it gets to white listing i think there's only so much you can do bro what's up is it team speak um sorry no key linked this thing obviously like this you know the whole thing sucks but it's it's kind of fun hearing things like this apparently over a thousand iranian dota players like at once we're playing dota 2 local hosted lobbies and this looks like in a locally hosted team speak server um and the the video that we have on this if you full screen it is just scrolling through all of the different voice lobbies that they have going um in a in a team speak server that seems to be called dota iran um which like that is it's so cool seeing people come together in horrible times yeah like obviously it's a horrible situation i don't want to praise that but like it's pretty sweet that not only were people able to get together to a certain degree but they also got so many people together and like this this you know spark of unity amongst terrible situation is is cool so i'm i'm props to props to the people getting that going yeah ginger nut it says it's both sad and terrifying to see people who are just like you and me just regular gamers who just want to live in peace and play some play some f***ing dota like just be left alone to live their lives and function and you know sometimes dysfunction for being real about the dota community you know but do it on their terms yeah cool um the iphone 5s just got a security update apple quietly released updates for some very old iphones and ipads including devices running iOS 12 15 and 16 some of which hadn't been patched in years the updates renew a security certificate so services like i message facetime and apple account sign in will keep working past january of 20 27 our discussion question is should apple be praised for keeping decade old devices minimally functional or is this just the bare minimum to avoid breaking its own services well i wish it didn't deserve praise and yet in the world we live in in the in reality yeah they they this is something that that has to be noted like i'll be the first to call out apple when they do something that's anti consumer or monopolistic but this is cool that means the rule is that i got to be the first one in line to put their in my mouth when they do something that is genuinely cool like making sure that someone who bought an iphone 13 years ago is still able to use it if they can tolerate the you know the the experience that they're having on that device gotta be pretty rough but still that's that's pretty cool speaking of pretty cool uh 1.3 million of its 1.4 million signatures were verified for stop killing games that's which is well above the minimum to be formally considered by EU politicians i had no hope for this really yeah stop killing games i just i mean we talked about it we promoted it we were like yeah if this works that would be great but i just i didn't think it would make it i do i do the odds obviously in support of the idea i think i think when this when this first became a thing and i like tried to talk about it with some nuance it got a lot of hate but then we were luckily able to lean back on the many years of examples of us supporting this general concept uh the the problem i have with things like this is i just hope that they get good consultants on the result that's all sure but i just didn't think we'd even make it this far totally yeah and i'm excited about it and the EU's done some cool stuff so hopefully this goes well and i'm feeling good about it i just i'm just a little bit concerned that they might do something yeah that or they might do nothing or that but at least it is forced onto the agenda of the european commission that is something cool and if one region forces game developers to do this to whether it's to open source the the the server software or whatever it is right partner with the community to to to run the services that are needed to keep the game alive whatever it is if one region forces it well at that point they've done all the work anyway and a lot of the time it will bleed over into other regions which is what i'm hoping for because so far canada's got its hands full doing a lot of other stuff right now i'm pretty busy maybe maybe we don't work on this right now the us is there's this big got his hands full doing a lot of stuff right now yeah doing a lot of stuff right now um they're definitely things yeah there's definitely they're definitely boy are they ever doing stuff i'd say things are going pretty good down there right now yeah this is funny uh bernardo baruch said about the apple uh the apple topic it's like seeing a mayor actually do their job yeah it's basically like that it's like i shouldn't have to be impressed by this but i so am i so am all right what's next reddit found a card skimmer on the canada computer's checkout page a canada computer's customer has discovered a card skimmer embedded directly into the company's website checkout page the malicious script was found siphoning names addresses and credit card details to a third party server in real time suggesting a server side compromise rather than a single browser based attack reports indicate fraudulent charges dating back to early december meaning the breach may have gone undetected for weeks or i mean really potentially longer considering it's saying fraudulent charges they might have been harvesting for a long time before they started actually using uh which is extremely common in these cases so i suspect it was a lot longer than that canada computer says not yet issued a public statement and affected customers are being advised to review recent credit activity via an email dang is an email enough of a notification when dealing with this big of a security breach what should companies do to handle this i don't know how much more you can really do than that i don't know other than like not have it happen in the first place but clearly that ship sailed yeah they're a relatively small shop running a internet commerce operation um it can be tough out there this is one of those things where it's like totally the consumer advocacy of this like something's got to happen all that kind of stuff are we effectively just funneling everyone to big players managing their stores for them is that a good thing do we want that we don't want that then sometimes there's going to be some security problems even with the big players are going to be security problems i know but this is this is the issue though the overreaction to stuff like this can result in no you're so right scaring people away do you get tired of it from being responsible like it's just exhausting to be you not right no but this is one that i got to admit i would not have seen that angle on and if you gave me if you gave me like two hours to sit and think about it i wouldn't go oh my god we need to chill out we need to kind of let canada computers regroup and we need to continue to support them because otherwise oh my god our only options are just going to be freaking amazon a new egg yeah to be clear canada computers like almost certainly brought this upon themselves in a variety of ways they never responded to my email guys come on like i remember i remember them being a meme internally at ncix you saw how broken our it infrastructure was and our internal systems were like i think i showed you like like our like product management portal and stuff oh yeah and then the punchline was yeah but canada computers was still using fax till like a year ago so like right but still at least at least they exist and i guess that's something that is that is kind of good you know yeah yeah shout out memex too i guess those are those are canadian our canadian computer retailer bros and that's the problem is their their holdouts and uh i'm not going to single them out i'll single out everything basically it's not just the computer industry it's every industry shops like this are holdouts and in a lot of cases they're not long for this world because things like this can potentially crush them out of business and then you just funnel people to amazon or or whoever else basically amazon and walmart and the big box places that have extremely long histories of abusing people on much deeper levels than credit cards which are often fixable because your credit card company if you report it properly we'll just give you your funds back and give you a new card compare at unfixable yeah like do you want to funnel to the to places like that no right so it's like okay i don't know no i mean it's the same argument that i used to have with people who would rage at uh blizzard developers who would say kind of silly things at blizzcon yeah is like the result of that which we saw happen was less developers on stage taking less questions and if they do take questions those questions being curated beforehand which is less transparency and less good for you like you sometimes have to think about what like not what is the result that you want but what is the result that will happen based on your actions yeah uh so canada computers has released a statement thank you the female audience for posting this in Floatplane chat so they're they're doing their best complimentary to your credit monitoring and etc we're investigating we're doing stuff so you know thank you for you know doing stuff and uh hopefully this isn't too damaging to either the customers who were inflicted or to canada computers by and large we do want smaller even if they are chains we'd still rather have a smaller chain exist can you imagine that we'd be sitting here today saying that i'd rather i'd rather root for like my smaller chain than the large like giant mega fish that eats up everything i mean the mom and pop computer shops are like gone yeah there are a few yeah even black lab i think shut down really or the the stored it anyway yeah let's see uh we have gone mobile yeah there it is there is another way of saying that we don't have a brick and mortar anymore we do on-site services same great number same trusted service so this is the one that i that i bought out all the inventory of and um that's a sick acronym yeah black lab on-site that is a sick acronym i mean he's a funny guy like he had a lot he had a ton of personality that's that doesn't surprise me that he would have like a pretty cool brand super not surprised and the next one on the the order to get knocked over is places like canada computers and memex and again all the other industries i'm not i'm not like signaling uh them out singling sorry um i still have like a uh uh that's less you have a clogged throat from being sick i'm still i still have like minor symptoms from being sick i still have a bit of a clogged throat from that apple praise oh yeah we need to talk about whale lan hey our first whale lan of 2026 is just three weeks away on february 21st as always we will have contest challenges and big team games that everyone at the land can participate in our gaming lounge zone is being amped up as we expand it with an additional projector and enough controllers to have eight plus players at each of the two 120 inch setups plus we'll have a product booth there so you can grab some LTT Store items alongside a unique whale lan shirt or hoodie but you know it might actually do quite well at a land is true spec cables yeah that makes sense um usually eating it i don't know if we'll have any by then but sure um some tickets are still available at whale lan dot com chewy asks if the ice cream machine will be back yes it will uh whale lan dot com so you guys can go check that out february 21st

not many nine tickets available for by oc plus and we still have a hundred tickets for by oc but don't just sit on that um at last time at around this time like three weeks prior we had like a hundred plus tickets available and there were quite a few people that were like oh yeah well there's a lot i don't know there's like a hundred laughs no and then in the days leading up to the event they were like where did all the tickets go it's because a lot of people make these kind of decisions last minute don't be a last minute larry get your ticket because you never know when a group of 20 people is gonna all buy tickets together and they're just gonna start disappearing in very large chunks i eat cool good i eat i eat i eat what do you eat not cake that's for sure uh for dinner it will be chicken and uh sweet potato he turned down score flavor ice cream cake prior to the show that's crazy things got bad dude having no kitchen for six months because of renovation was bad things got bad this is my plate i couldn't resist but i'm on i'm back on track again things are going good heck yeah i got some progress remake up it'll be fine all right we're we're also supposed to talk about Floatplane apparently where's that i don't even see it oh yeah hey what what we had five Floatplane videos this week three clips two bangers just circle and highlight the clips no need to watch can you bring up the float Floatplane if you're a tech upgrade fan you can check out adam's tech upgrade where are they now showcasing what changed from the very first AMD ultimate tech upgrade spoiler adam and shea are engaged now good for them let's go if you're more of a wan pal you can check out episode 19 holy f*** it's been 19 months of this of why is wan late or somehow Linus is the reason why wan was late for all of january wow i know that's crazy uh also Floatplane precision screwdriver very epic wow v cool wahoo what am i even okay no looking at here no he keeps who wrote this oh for sure sammy is this sammy for sure sammy that makes sense very epic wow v cool wahoo definitely sammy okay LMG.gg slash fp when there you go i did it sammy no no key really wants us to watch the last four seconds of this with audio i don't actually know what the last four seconds is um i've got it queued up okay uh so i just go to luke laptop Dan are you ready luke laptop rear when is this from oh this is on why wan late okay no this isn't on why wan late what is this this is from like yesterday or something oh okay ready wait where are you oh what oh i got so confused because what was that was that clip mirrored can i see that again what are you so confused about are you standing right here oh it's pointing the camera is pointing to you the camera person is over there yeah okay i'll show you okay no no i get it i get it i get it yeah no no i'm just an idiot okay okay yeah cool good chat all right all right all right all right what am i supposed to be doing now Dan we have sponsors it's the only last obligation we should do a couple more topics that was a good recommendation okay thank you all right youtube's anti ad block system just got smarter and harder to dodge youtube users are reporting a spike in Linus rejoicing what line is so happy Linus winning what do you mean by winning okay oh my god is it this again i have never line is so happy about youtube changes i have never told people don't use ad block Linus number one benefactor of youtube anti ad block system unless they are internal staff here for the express reason that because we make as a company so much of our income via ads it seems a little hypocritical for us to block them on our work i think ultimately that you know that people have to review videos on the channel at work and you just want their ad money youtube users are reporting a spike in this content isn't available try again later errors that appear to only go away after disabling ad blockers or subscribing to youtube premium the reports add to growing evidence that google is continuing to technically restrict or degrade playback for users running ad block discussion question at what point does fighting ad blockers cross the line from enforcing terms of service into intentionally breaking the user experience i mean to me they're kind of one and the same enforcing terms of service would be you're not allowed to use the service unless you adhere to the terms of the service aka like would you say that if you were going to a concert and they didn't let you in without a ticket that they are breaking your user experience i mean they are but i wouldn't frame it that way if that makes sense at what point does this go from fighting ad blockers to crossing the line into Linus enforcing his will on youtube who would love to not do this but is just you know Linus might talk about our ranch our Linus controls what every large company does so you know if you want to channel the voices in our community you could pick a slightly less stupid one is that possible it's fun though it's that possible it's so holy crap you just tried to cleave everyone oh my goodness oh my god okay you know my thoughts are my own and are not representative or Linus and luke or Linus media group i have to show your face while you say that to them speaking of internal policies you're not allowed to insult the audience what about what about my peers i'm insulting you i'm talking about my peers and my friends you you did on this show that there is no way that i didn't say i'm always perfect and i i didn't say no i didn't say i'm always perfect and that i shouldn't be admonished when i do it i'm just saying it is policy to not insult the audience no matter how stupid they are i'll have to keep that in mind that will be very useful even if they're really stupid sorry i forgot that it's not publicly against policy not publicly part i'm sorry oops boy um anyways off of Linus's favorite topic of the show valve will face a 656 million pound lawsuit i love that the uk's currency is pounds yeah because it just that's a heavy lawsuit you know 656 million pounds not like that tiny cost of doing business one that google got recently is that in the dock so this is in the uk over alleged unfair prices on steam following a tribunal ruling that the case could continue um that's basically it um the case could affect up to 14 million uk users who may be eligible for compensation if valve is found to have unfairly charged commissions of up to 30 percent what i don't know but i'm interested to see what happens that is strange i don't really know what this means me neither to be honest we'll keep an eye on it are you talking about google paying 68 million over recording private chats is that the one yeah like what do you mean 68 million yeah it's not even nice sounds like a lot of money it would be my entire family would never have to work again for generations wow amazing to google that's nothing that means nothing yeah they'll just do it again they like almost certainly made more money off of that than it cost which is just again like come on you have to cross that line at the very least it should be way more than that but you have to cross that line well i mean also at least one million more dollars yeah come on that'd be pretty nice 68 sucks yeah if it was going to be low it could have at least been funny yeah so 68 would be doing it with someone with two butts or one really big one no well yeah okay interesting that would be the largest of butts that's a that's a that's a that's a 0.1 percenter man you're looking at me have you seen that movie oh man it's a good movie oh dad no pooping back and forth forever yeah the movie's hilarious what are you talking about the Gilmore D says more cake than betty crocker love it you me and everyone we know okay all right okay um no notes here cnn is now putting emergency weather information behind their paywall i think this was actually from last week but like so oh my god this this flip-flake check he got paid to type that from jack logan i know i'm the one who did it i have to take some responsibility for this that's it that message in flip-flake chat was it i even got it wrong it's it's it's actually this yeah yeah it's the there you go yeah so um no notes that's bad yeah the enshrification of everything sucks in other news an early build of google's Android desktop interface that is going to apparently replace chromo s has leaked and we have some screenshots so like here's some stuff this moved hey it looks a lot like Windows 11 yep why is the middle becoming the norm i blame apple they even have the four okay what can you zoom in on the taskbar there's even the four things one of them is a search bar look no look just the left of the phone i know it's like an app thing but if you look at the the Windows one very similar yeah could we just can we not because you don't because then you don't need to look where you're clicking you can just drag it all the way to the bottom left and then you open the thing like that's the reason it matters i click on it should i think that because i because i actually just run it in the middle because i just never bothered to change it because i wanted to see what it was going to be like and then it never affected me because i think i just press a button but if it was in the bottom left would it bother you no okay then we're good yeah yes i know i can hit the Windows key i don't always have my hand on the keyboard say for instance i was mousing and my other hand was occupado why would i want to click my keyboard like with that point one that's not even sanitary the big eight big eight stop anyway it included screen captures uh running a hp elite dragonfly chromebook etc nine to five google is where you can go check out the full article on this um apparently it's going to be called aluminum os or aluminium os excuse me the codename for the Android based desktop os agree on how to say no no they'll change it um the bug report has since been taken down but nine to five google managed to save these screen recordings it essentially looks like Android 16's existing desktop mode with some minor alterations uh the other big thing here is the extensions button to the right of the url bar in chrome which is uh only there on desktop versions of the browser so that's you know not the Android one so that's cool i guess we'll see how that goes for them yeah tesla is discontinuing the model s and model x in the second quarter of 2026 this was announced by ceo elon musk during an earnings call on january 28th of this year the reason for the discontinuation is apparently to free up space at tesla's fremont factory for optimus humanoid robot production uh okay now this is a very optimistic set of notes that we've got here this is part of their strategy to transform tesla from an automaker into an ai and robotics company the third generation optimus is described as meant for mass production but then again you know tesla or well more specifically their ceo also predicted that 5 000 robots would be produced in 2025 and said in 2024 that they were already doing meaningful work and then said a completely different thing on i believe that same earnings call this year and admitted that they weren't doing any meaningful work and that they were all just development in development um so that's that's something i'm not even going to bother with these timelines because a timeline from tesla means absolutely nothing whereas the roadster too anyway uh sales of both the model s and x have apparently been declining steadily in 2025 tesla sold only just shy of 51 000 other models which can combine model s model x and cybertruck they don't break out individual figures for these vehicles uh for context tesla's focus has shifted to mass market model 3 and model y which make up the bulk of their sales evidently um elon's one trillion dollar pay package depends on him making literally a million of these robots not to mention getting 10 million full self-driving subscriptions um so there's a lot of people mad about world's first trillionaire and the trillion dollar pay package yeah it's not happening doesn't have it so he gets it he did get the last one that everyone thought he wasn't going to get though that's true so but if only past performance was an indicator of future success then we could just buy every stock that's going up right now assuming that it will only ever go up which seems to be what a lot of people are doing right now which is blowing my freaking mind it doesn't seem to matter what any of the fundamental product or technology developments are companies or sales or anything but uh hey gambling apparently it's a thing people like yeah did you see that um for my appearance on jimmy fowlin there was one of those market uh market prediction what what are they called those like betting on anything prediction there was a prediction market thing on like keywords that i might or might not say during it i would dude i was so tempted to just bet a hundred thousand dollars on myself and then just not say a word like it dude it it would be free money man it would just be free money to me slip up on that would feel so bad in the moment oh i know right holy if you bet on not saying something bit of bit says that would be illegal what is fucking enforce it yeah these prediction markets are completely unregulated as far as i can tell yeah like immediately that's fair like that was awesome a law i mean we've talked about this before you know a warranty only has the value of a company's willingness to uphold it a law only has the value of an administration's willingness to enforce it like if something's a law that nobody is going to enforce and it's just a giant open uh it'd be a shame if i anyone knowledgeable bet it on this thing that they know the outcome of why don't we have a completely unregulated gambling market where you can bet on anything that's a flaw in the system the mighty reptar hate the game in full point chat says something interesting he said it it occurred to me why elon's selling the full self-driving subscription at a low price compared to the perch compared to purchasing it outright is to sell more subscriptions because his pay package is based on volume of subscriptions not dollars generated from the subscription oh that actually makes a ton of sense i added some square brackets that makes a ton of sense yeah yeah interesting interesting uh right a couple more sponsors and then we've actually got some oh we've got some really interesting stuff coming up man oh show is brought to you by motion gray whether you spend hours

continues to fall apart after after last week's horrible ubisoft news the company wants to cut up to 18 percent of the staff from its french studios are about 200 jobs in response to everything that management has done wrong french ubisoft workers have voted to strike february 10th to 12th in a press release on blue sky announcing the strike workers said they were calling for a halt to management's obsession with penny pinching and worsening our working conditions saying there had been no dialogue and no respect and that they were being treated like children while their management gets away with lies and breaking the law that's not even the end of the ubisoft labor disputes the workers of the recently closed halifax studio rallied downtown this week to urge ubisoft to reopen their office workers on the picket line say the closure was very suspicious as the office had just become ubisoft's first studio to unionize in north america ubisoft responded by saying that the process to restructure the company began two years ago well before the unionization process started our discussion question is why are the french so much better at striking than north americans they have a lot better laws very colorful history of it they really do lots of reds tons of reds a legend political censoring and other fun tick tock news days after tick tock finalized the sale of its us business to mostly trump friendly american investors tick tock users have apparently been unable to send the word epstein in dms really allegedly allegedly allegedly tick tock says it's investigating these reports and say they don't have rules against sharing the name epstein do you imagine having to issue that press release can we try this i have it installed but it's not logged in okay multiple users have also been reporting that videos critical of ice are not being uploaded or shared one example is comedian megan stalter who uploaded a video to her instagram encouraging the abolishment of ice which was reposted 12 000 times while that same video failed to upload to tick tock multiple times tick tock denies the implications and says the issues were due to a power outage at a us data center okay possibly in a separate story tick tock has reached an 11th hour settlement to avoid being involved in something they should absolutely be involved in which is the landmark social media addiction trial that could establish a legal precedent on whether social media companies deliberately design their platforms to addick children which they definitely do the defendants currently include google and meta snapchat landed a settlement last week and tick tock should for sure be included so the problem with settlements is that so what they're trying to do is they're trying to settle so that there's no legal precedent yeah there should for sure be legal precedent i yeah if i am i would strongly prefer that this does not get settled with settlements yes yeah yep in a very different kind of tick tock story and this is nuts i don't know if you've heard of this cabbie lane i hope you're saying that right i did see this has sold his company yeah which is a lot more than that his entire life as far as i can tell like everything about him yeah his his likeness his his like mannerisms his voice for forever i think in a 975 million dollar oh all stock all stock deal so i think and and listen man sorry you gotta know the name it's so it's 75 million shares in ordinary shares in rich sparkle holdings yes hmm so basically he got no money for his his work and likeness forever maybe is this gonna be the next maybe his twin will be point one percent only fans like is this is this gonna be the next smosh because they got f***ed sideways they sure did on that deal where smosh was acquired for in an all stock deal who this is the supposed to know who this is isn't he like the biggest tick tocker or something is this guy he does this yeah i'd never something that's kind of silly and he goes i'd never heard of him either to be honest with you i don't i don't know beyond that he might do things other than that he might do that thing differently than i just did other than that i don't know uh yeah yeah right see yeah yeah he's apparently like a huge deal sure um rich sparkle holdings yeah rich sparkle holdings what a name most followed tick tocker apparently so this really does feel deceptive given that it's an all stock deal yeah if it was stock in disney that would be different yeah totally yeah but rich sparkle holdings what is rich sparkle holdings can i short it not financial advice i mean even disney stock rich sparkle holdings oh they went up hold on hold on this is just the one day view this doesn't mean anything so people liked this story okay people people liked people liked this rich sparkle holdings spend a billion dollars on someone's name wait since when has it existed i searched for five years and it has only existed since july of 2025 apparently nice or at least that's how far back yahoo finances history goes for it okay what do you got uh this one low so even if it is in disney it would have gone down 33 percent in five years um good job bluey bad job superhero movies i was i was joking about this and someone's going away party um before the show uh what will be the mark of the end times for disney if you had to pick something i already know my answer so i can do mine first if you want to if you if you want to think about it for a bit but i thought you might have you might have a thought i don't know if my gut thought here is good or accurate but i'll throw it out anyways because it was the first thing that came to mind yeah would be the closure of a park oh that's good that's good okay mine is an mcu star wars crossover movie like like iron man fighting a jedi here's some oh she stepped down a kathleen kennedy she's stepping down oh interesting and i i think it's like the guy who's who's stepping up i i always forget john favreau who's the other guy there's like two uh philoni i think it might be him dav philoni yeah i think it's dav philoni potentially exciting we'll see chat chat hates this made my stomach hurt never speak that that was disgusting to hear like vision versus darth vader like dual like star wars is another one of those things where like it feels very ubisoft coded where it's like this was actually genuinely hilariously easy to not do the way that you did um like the path was laid out he did like george lucas sold them effectively a money printing machine not just that what you should do for the sequel series this is what you should do and they were like nah are you nuts and even if they didn't like his idea for it at least there was the there was the expanded universe yep or extended universe whatever the e you there were so many and kathleen is quoted many times being like we don't have like source material to go off of and it's like yes you did stop i and the world stuff was kind of out there yeah you don't have to use all of it yeah but you could have used i don't know something and man i think the the first people to admit that some of the extended universe stuff goes a little out there yeah would be fans of the extended universe stuff like you don't have to use all of it pretzel parkour says vader lifts meal near oh it's so bad it's so bad you know you know like captain marvel like like flies through uh flies through a freaking star destroyer in hyperspace and splits it into do you know about white it's only slightly stupider than what we got do you know about white armor vader no so this is where like you know e you gets kind of weird there's a white armor vader jar jar has the infinity stones imagine white armor vader steps into into view and it's like his first introduction just walks up picks up the hammer cinema cinema cinema cinema okay okay someone brought up space balls too in chat um kishan pd brings up space balls too dude i don't i don't know how they're gonna parody like new star wars it's not funny i think it would be i think it would be kind of funny if they just did like the same thing over and over again if they had like a two minute sequence where they just repeated things a bunch okay if they if they in one movie if they effectively did the arc of like you just do the same thing for a while that you did in the past at the beginning of the movie and then you just kind of rewrite everything that happened and make everything kind of weird and then you come back and try to kind of like i don't know do it again like if the movie is in three parts similar to uh pulp fiction um but they're like loosely linked just like how the movies were like really not well linked and were definitely three completely different things not made in collaboration which is insane if they if they do it like that in one movie it might be kind of funny roman they can figure it out roman 21023 says robert downey junior is also a mandalorian oh god oh god i don't know palpatine comes back again and it's robert downey jr iron mandalorian iron mandalorian is rough oh man oh my god it's rough because it sounds too real oh we have we have groot and and the tiny baby yoda thing groots on end door yeah baby groot and baby yoda dude the merge sales would pop they should put us in charge we could make we could do this i mean we could legitimately have done a better job we'd sell so many toys we'd sell so many toys oh man you know i'm not one to make a statement like that lightly i know it's very easy for armchair quarterbacks to say i could do a better job no i think we could have i literally actually think you and i as the creative heads of star wars after the acquisition probably could have done a better job just go walk up to dav felonii and john favreau and be like hey guys what do we do yeah yeah that would have that would have worked i don't think we need to do much more hey oh so i heard there's um there's some like uh story prompts from the guy who did this the whole time so i guess we should like read them pull those out maybe just read them and then just like you know work on those develop those i know you guys know like a lot about the lore more than we do so like you want to help us kind of fill this out we'll follow your guys i heard you guys know a lot of people in the industry yeah that's who we don't so yeah we'd love your guidance on that thanks guys that'd have been pretty cool nice yeah we we noticed we have all the money in the world enough to buy the earth and all the heavens so we could just hire the coolest people to work on this maybe uh maybe this this idea where he just goes like yeah we could just throw that away maybe we don't do that we could do that to that idea yeah yeah yeah nice nice nice nice okay we're cooking we could have our most beloved character like maybe be cool that'd be cool stupid stupid thing yeah that's good um i think was that our last topic no we have one more quick one LTT Labs article anchor nano smart charger 45 watt testing and exploration this popped off on reddit Labs did a thing yeah and it was really cool and i i was as surprised to see it as anyone and i was like wow this is really cool so Labs has been doing this thing for a while with articles where we're trying to ask questions dive into things someone who's really been leading the charge on this is lucas so a lot of them are around you know charging things and stuff like that because these are interests that lucas has which is great and like totally the goal to be clear so thank you lucas for killing it um and uh we've been posting them on reddit well he's been posting them on reddit and responding to some of the comments and stuff and trying to get it out there because we're really trying to make this a space that you can go to to you know maybe you didn't have the question maybe like me you've looked at phone chargers for a long time just been like meh i don't know that's cool but now someone who is interested in it can bring you along the path of like what is interesting about these things like can we look into them obviously super cool luma field tests what is care mode what does it do yeah it does exactly this yeah now we know knowing that is awesome like is it real or is it just bs you know yeah here's there here's their marketing here's what we found this made me like interested in buying like a cool phone charger yeah which i have never cared about once in my life here's the thermals of a charger yeah here's how much it can actually dissipate before it reaches like a steady state here's how hot it gets like damn LTT Labs there was there was a red thread over the weekend that i kind of missed until work started again so i got to it way too late and it was already cold by the time i saw it and there was a bunch of like like wtf is Labs doing it didn't really pick up a lot of steam but yeah a lot of the comments were pretty consistent on like what's happening and then this got posted yeah and it was like a massive wave of like oh my god this is awesome this is what we're trying to do right now there are a lot of things that we're trying to do right now this is one of them we're also trying to better support video production and do all this other kind of stuff but we're trying to the like internal labeling of it and i haven't watched uh that stuff in a long time but you know like the vibe in when the tv would roll into the class and you'd watch bill nye stuff back in the day of like here's some interesting questions and this person went and like sought to answer them and brought us along with them and showed us the the ways that they tested things and how they did things and the results and stuff like that we want to do that with uh we want it to be fun we want to be interesting we want to be engaging we want to ask questions that you maybe didn't think of or if you guys ask a cool question we want to try to seek uh an answer and share it with you and bring you along and this is like a huge fantastic example of that so yeah yeah and that's it for our topics today it's time for after dark mr daniel bassard you want to uh hit us with some merch what did we agree to call them comms check out messages check out messages yeah sure we got loads of check out messages that we do today i won't have time for all of them i do have to go relatively soonish actually yes we i think we have enough time i think we've all right structured this out well any insights as to why some hold on do we need a second Dan behind you putting the metal on your neck you said i think we structured this so well and we definitely didn't contribute to that yes you did i don't know you listened you did were great did we though yeah i wasn't that's such a like head pat answer yeah you actually you actually did it was for one boys you were good boys well Linus was i don't know about you you don't have any say in what we do yeah not 50 that's for sure yeah no maybe maybe next time maybe next time you can say no we're gonna do the sponsors now daniel that'll be fun i don't never use your full name any insight as to why some lengths are cheaper than others doesn't seem to be based on length can't wait for more normal sizes to be in stock um the price i can't remember oh um so if one gets longer and cheaper check the data rate that makes sense cool good chat um if jimmy fallon was on your show rather than the other way around what topics would you want to talk to him about in this hypothetical situation you also have access to his broader audience dude i wouldn't actually be super interested in leveraging his broad broader audience i would love to have an extended chat with him about how the production works and how it's worked over the years i watched a time lapse of them building their studio that was nuts just the whole thing how the structure works how the individual players within the game that is making that show function would be so interesting to me yeah like that like handler that we had yeah what does that person's day look like yeah how do they work and i was i was very surprised second time around to get a little bit more um an indication anyway more of an indication that he is more involved than just like the guy who stands there and is or isn't funny depending on your opinion clearly a lot of people don't think he's funny clearly a lot of people think he's very funny because see i don't want one of the highest paid people on tv get over it i don't even care about that at all i just find the production so but that's what i mean is like he's clearly more than that which i actually didn't realize first time around yeah i have no idea i i would i would love to spend just like a week there trying to you know stay out of people's way but observe and just learn it would be very very cool well i think with his history doing it for so long they're asking like if he was a guest on our show right no i know yeah so picking his brain about fantastic how it's evolved over the years i think would be absolutely incredible very very cool incredible my canadian neighbors what do you think is the most canadian thing about each other thanks mate for the usb double c thick cords the most canadian thing about you i mean your last name i don't have to go very deep Lafreni̬re is about the the french canadianist name that i think probably exists that is a thing left lure maybe um that's another one what else what else we got here what makes someone canadian see it's a funny thing because outside of canada it seems like there's a lot of stereotypes for canadians you know we're called leafs like that's a pejorative yeah that's cool yeah i actually like it that was pretty good yeah leaf yeah i'm down i mean it's biodegradable it's it's even like it kind of works because like it matches the flag like if you're looking at all the flags yeah someone was like point at the people you would call the leaf yeah you're f***ing leaf you know like yeah sure sweet all right like i don't i don't even think that has like a bother me like a negative connotation to me anyway i mean i i don't understand what people necessarily even mean by it um most canadian thing about us yeah like i know i know about some of the um fun fact there was once a contest to find the canadian equivalent of as american as apple pie and the winner was as canadian as possible under the circumstances i think it's the war crime thing yeah that makes sense they wrote a book about us i don't know like i like i don't think luke's particularly into maple syrup um bc is kind of weird like ball hockey but like you don't you don't even ice hockey so like no it's so expensive yeah um i think that's maybe the most canadian thing about you that's already what i thought of i had thought about this earlier in the thing is that you would love to and watch but have never really done ice hockey oh yeah i i want that's actually extremely canadian because ice hockey is really expensive yeah there is a i honestly is a kid too no money and too small so it's a pretty big on the hitting game uh but like genuinely not that many people that i grew up with actually played ice hockey right most people that i grew up with played ball hockey because ice hockey is so expensive i spent lots of time on rollerblades but by the time i was old enough to like participate in roller hockey uh i lived in the middle of absolute but no where so there was no one to do it with yeah and roller hockey also has a pretty major expense problem as far as my understanding goes it is cheaper yeah but it's still a pretty major expense problem so that that that was my kind of answer is that you like it watch it would like to do it never have by the way hear me out we got a um we finally got one we got it we got an led wall this is yeah this is so incredibly unrelated did you see it no it's not unrelated it's very related trust me so so oh we're gonna watch hockey on it we didn't get the wall oh but we did get a wall hey um so i saw it in operation last night but it was it was just playing white bars okay so like i i saw it in operation today one of the first thoughts i had was hey guess what's coming up yeah winter olympics baby oh i really like watching the olympics so i sent a i sent a note over to hr i want to do at least quarter semi finals watch parties yeah on the wall yeah on the a wall yeah um dude this thing is incredible sick it's incredible sick very excited did they put the long Linus image on it yet no probably not it will happen no i'm sure it will they'll also play crab rave on it at some point almost certainly yep okay once upon a WAN Show Linus said something like life is about sales and equating it to finding a mate would you expand on that more assuming i'm remembering this somewhat accurately okay no uh i understand what they're saying yes yes yes okay that is a topic so it's not quoting it exactly yeah so what i said was that everything in life is aided by a familiarity with sales techniques is what i was is what i was trying to get across and what i was explaining is that just because you don't work in sales you know selling cables or or fancy blue screwdrivers or whatever whatever it is doesn't mean that you can ignore the principles of salesmanship because everything from selling your idea to a colleague you can have the best idea in the world but if you can't convince anybody else of it then the world will be worse for you not being able to sell that idea do you kind of get what i mean and in the same way selling yourself the value of yourself can help you make connections whether they're friendships or whether they're relationships and so learning to learning to speak learning to to just sort of analyze something and figure out you know what's what's good about this what needs to you have and is this a match these are just extremely valuable skills that we think of as like sales you ick sales but can be very important just in life in everything that you do and one of the examples i gave was yes finding a romantic partner hi dll i hope that you're having a great friday Linus what was your favorite part of the process of developing the true spec cables um i got pretty excited when i first saw the cable stock um and i was like she thick um like that was pretty cool um just like seeing i learned a lot all right that's that's one of my favorite things about whatever it is whether it's like a like a content acquisition or like a video remaking that's different from anything we've done before externally your most excited communication was about like the facts yeah like this is really interesting like when we were down at that uh land house yeah and you got the one person excited you were talking about the coaxial nature and like all these different things like you you were into the the specs and how it became a thing yeah i like to i like to i like to solve problems i like to learn about problems i like to um i like it when something is just like better so yeah i guess that's about it but yeah makes sense yeah just the the the shielding um learning you know why every other cable is the way that it is and learning that it doesn't have to be like that it was pretty cool dear wan Dan thank you luke sure Linus did you did you ever meet or talk to jason pamoa when you were at the tonight show i didn't get to you mentioned being excited and you never talked about it afterwards no i didn't get to i saw without his pants on nice this had a unique experience i don't know to be honest not sure okay this one's for luke then it often seems like you're the voice of reason or morals on the WAN Show what is the most memorable time you've had to step up and say something at LMG oh not on the WAN Show i was going to be like okay that's a pretty obvious answer i have no idea it happens on the WAN Show a lot more explicitly than basically anywhere else that's not just because Linus is on the show it's because it's live um there's a lot less like pressure to correct when it's not live and people will much more often catch themselves because when we're on the WAN Show it's about the next thing at all points in time and when you're in like a meeting you might say something and then think about what you just said while someone else is talking for a little bit and then correct and it's like it's more casual right so it's like i think it's less lan show is also performative to a degree like we're live we're not um so there's pushing things to extremes because it's supposed to be a show we'll play devil's advocate we will we will sort of we'll we'll be a little more a little more animated i wouldn't say that luke and i are not like real on the WAN Show i think if anything pretty real it's a it's kind of a relief to do WAN Show because we can just kind of kind of drop the charade um but it's still a show but it's still a show an amount and number one is still make an entertaining show uh we can't just go full business meeting on the show at least not all the time some yeah sometimes sometimes it's useful actually um i don't know i'm not trying to cop out i just i don't know um you also gotta remember that part of it is like luke's role on the show like just because i say something and luke steps in and is the voice of reason doesn't mean that behind the scenes there aren't things that we agree on i might my position might be a lot closer to his even if the way that i explained it isn't great and his position might be a lot closer to mine even if he knows that you guys can't hear that right now like my eye started twitching on that one um i'm wondering like i don't know man like some of our some of our like biggest scandals have just become kind of a mainstream opinion at this point like the ad block is piracy one is a great example my thing i'm still honestly mostly just confused on that one because like i don't know you were framed as like voice of reason on it but i don't think you ever actually like said you disagreed was i framed a voice of reason on that one in general i think you were on that one i don't know about that one i don't know how you said it originally you you do this thing sometimes where you you calibrate on wancho that's true where you'll say something like that's really intensely and dramatically and then get the feedback and be like all right well that's a perfect example is that where we were like okay fine we'll call it privateering because i'm actually technically piracy is this you know rigidly defined crime and it's not a crime what i'm doing and that's nice but but functionally speaking i think it's just it just doesn't offend me like at all well let's say just that people don't know why people get so upset about it's because you're not an insecure little bitch maybe i'm honestly i just like i just don't care like if it's well i know it's because you're not an insecure little that's why it's that simple and see this is one of those things where i'm gonna say this thing and then he's gonna he's gonna kind of do the luke thing where he kind of like absorbs sort of my very direct energy and he laughs and is likable and you guys like him for it this is so awkward stop perseving me yeah i don't know i uh i think when i wear the hat i wear the hat proudly and just don't care well yeah that's because you're not an insecure little bitch this is part this is this is part of what i think Linus was saying the whole time which is that he's not actually judging you for it yeah he's just saying that it is a thing and that's fine and back in my day everyone that i knew wore the hat proud yeah i i didn't think who did when i said it i didn't think it was gonna be controversial i thought this whole community wore the hat proud so at that point dude i was so confused by the i'm still confused there's people who are still mad at me about it i also think there's good reasons there's there's malvertising there's like all these other kind of things but just just wear the hat dude whatever i yeah i don't know i don't know man we never said don't do it we said what i said what i said was you need to understand the consequences yeah and there are consequences there are consequences yeah like the erosion of independent news media is a consequence of people not being willing to pay for it that's a consequence yeah okay the current degradation of the youtube service maybe would have happened anyway but the rate that it's going at is almost certainly a consequence of not every user contributing monetarily to the services ongoing operation these are consequences not saying don't do it i'm just saying understand the consequences and if you're gonna wear the hat just f***ing wear it wear it and just don't worry about it and you don't have to it's not it's not like if you're like oh i'm very against like pirating you know music and games and books the the only thing that i do in this field is ad blogging you still wear the hat just with your your special caveats everyone has their own lines everyone's lines are slightly different and that's totally okay and when someone calls you on it don't go home crawl into your bed curl up in a ball and cry like a little b***h and i think there's still i think on top of that there's a good argument of like and this isn't it's not against the law to do ad blocking to be clear but even if it was like at very few points if any in history has the law been truly a good moral compass for everyone yeah we've had to have that conversation with our kids a couple times actually like like just because it's a more advanced conversation i'm yeah i suspect those were more recent yeah but like yeah i'm not yeah oh i need to go pretty quick all right what time am i supposed to be where i'm supposed to be i was told uh okay oh okay that's not bad i thought it was i thought it was six okay cool the minute told us on that all right which would have been that makes sense remove yeah wicked smart yeah tell that to iran i'm sure the vast majority of the people in iran feel that very strongly right now like yeah i don't think i have to tell that to iran i think they know i don't think they'd hear it i think their internet just turned off right come on team speak hello dll Linus i wanted to ask how your expedition 33 is going where are you act wise and how we and how are you feeling about it nice what is your current party you don't even get the reference i don't but i really liked how Dan voice acted it current party config is all ladies all the time um they're my girls and part of it is because i just like their style and part of it is that i invested a lot of lumina points into them and as far as i can tell that's the one thing you can't respect so um yeah lumina lumia whatever whatever it is the the points that allow you to assign more abilities and whatnot that are not directly equipped to them so um yep i've got my absolute fire goddess mile and then i've got uh loon with the cheater ability so that she can one two punch the uh just the cheap lightning one and then the like absolute atom bomb earth single target attack and then what have i got going on with uh seal i forget basically she's just she's a nuke in general so good stuff um i have no idea if that's the right meta i i i've been studiously avoiding spoilers and anything that will affect the way that i play the game i'm not even gonna be looking at chat right now because i just want to play the game and enjoy the game and if i ever do another run through then i'll be more than happy to like search for stuff where to find you know that ability or that weapon or you know whatever else but i want to explore the game world i want to immerse myself in it i want to have fun i don't want to uh i don't want to i don't want it to become a job i want to play a game and i'm just enjoying the heck out of them like ridiculously over leveled at this point just because i just want to like fight everything and explore everywhere and it's been it's been an absolute blast i'm really enjoying the game i'm on the third act um what else can i say that would not have any spoilers in it to speak of um how's it going where are you act wise how you feeling about yeah really really enjoying it though such a such a good game even playing for a while though yeah i think i well it's hard to tell my my hours in game get kind of messed up when i um i didn't mean it that way using the gpd win five and it doesn't go to sleep and the game is open so it gets like an extra eight hours on it overnight so steam says 50 hours but it's probably more like 30 35 but yeah i've yeah i've been enjoying the heck out of it i um i have completed all of the beaches those of you who are in the know will know so someone said that i hadn't done the most frustrating one yet when i said something about one that was very frustrating i have i actually did not find it as frustrating as the one that i had done before it was just kind of there's a little bit of luck involved in one of them but i have done them all and gotten the utterly worthless rewards from all of them and i proudly have my worthless rewards a couple more here bingledongle dingledangle how absurd are your plans for tech house can we look forward to voice activated chandeliers of fruit or local llm butlers in the wall not absurd um gi are our our our buyer our target for it is meant to be like you know a guy gi yeah you named your theoretical buyer yeah that's kind of neat yeah his wife is gal gi and gal yeah nice gi and gal so gg we kind of we kind of created a profile forum and there was some concern raised in the community that um you know the things that we were doing might not have wife acceptance factor okay so this is a way to keep that in mind but this is a hundred percent we know from the start that that was going to need to be a thing gal needs to accept it yeah exactly so we need to make sure that it is acceptable to her so there will be places that are going to be a little bit more guy zone but one of the things that jordan was doing today as he went through with um with our camera crew and got some before shots was he he brought um someone with two x chromosomes to ask the important questions like where would i put a full length mirror things that we and gi may not consider but we absolutely do need to accommodate stuff like that so should be a good balance Linus how do you like the garment i've been wearing one for many years and i love it's fine i i think i just might not be a smart watch person i think that might be the bottom line for me i might get a casio calculator watch or something because i think i'm just those are pretty sick i think i'm just over it those are pretty sick yep and the last one i have you can you can get like baller casios um um watch custom i'm not a watch guy uh i can't be i would lose it immediately nice i don't know if i want to like advertise this guy's site um i don't want to get an analog watch my brain is usually too tired to figure out what sounds good yeah digital this guy customizes casios what makes them like a bunch of different that's cool this one i think it looks pretty sweet i haven't seen that before but it reminds me of like 80s cars but not super cool there's a there's a bunch of different types oh my goodness there's so many again i would never buy one for myself i would lose it instantaneously how is the watch market so big that like this exists i just don't understand it yeah it's the only fashion accessory for men that's so not true belts earrings oh there they are okay not earrings if you're cool you can have the deadly wrist things of like leather strips and stuff yeah some people do that and pull it off cuff links okay maybe not as much of a thing anymore yeah last one i've got greetings earth humans have you had issues with unexpected items being put through the ct scanner who's the first to scan their lunch and have you found issues with non standard materials not that i'm aware of i don't think anybody yet okay yeah not entertaining we have a pretty good company full of pretty reasonable people it's a really good question but i don't think we can answer it super well i'm i am certain there has been some things you might not necessarily expect scanned but lucas would honestly be the better person to ask that maybe next time you see him post a Labs article on reddit you can give him an ask binky draws says Linus consider watches are cool if you like mechanical things totally cool and i can go to a bulgari store and i can look at it and i can be like whoa that's cool and then i can leave it sounds like what i would do it might skip the first step it's like the zoo i could i could go and i could see an animal and i'd be like wow cool animal and then i could go home there was i don't know i heard about this watch one time where they're like oh it tracks the like phases of the moon that's so cool i was like wow that sounds really let's learn all about it so i looked it up and then was like have you ever seen it i think so i think i know the one you're talking about sounds like a fatigue for the first something i think it's a rolex 32 and a half thousand dollars we got it oh an entry level one nice yeah that's that's so cool 32 and a half thousand dollars pre-owned yeah that's great and it looks fantastic yeah it looks beautiful yeah nice great starter watch for yeah the low income like you know what if someone had a if someone had a little like one and a half time if someone had a little watch museum and they had the watches and they had like a little placard that you could read about it and that could actually be quite interesting especially if they had like versions where you could see the the motion or if like they had a little interactive like like like blow-up thing that so you could see how what everything's doing inside you can turn the thing yeah which makes the motion move could you watch that is like could you take a novelty picture with the watch that'd be so cool probably not and uh yeah i pay a lot for that i would i would enjoy the heck out of that museum experience probably be pretty sweet but i it's just it's not the kind of thing that um i think they look super neat yeah i'm not gonna buy one um i don't know man i don't know what it would take for me yeah people like g-shocks my my smartwatch is round and it has a screen in it and then it can display pictures of those other watches on my watch i had this conversation enough with somebody the other day that basically went like i understand the concept of jewelry but i think i would just rather have the raw metal that's a wait someone else said that no no that was me who said that yeah i was gonna say that's a it's a very lightest i was having a conversation with them about jewelry um that could actually be an art piece jewelry statement which makes it even better how much how much just like wearing wearing a hunk of gold that doesn't tell time on your wrist yeah you know it's subversive like that's actually good that could probably sell for a lot of money i've got nowhere to be it doesn't matter what time it is i've seen one that was like a little tiny whiteboard and it had a micro marker like attached to it and you could just write the time on it that's cute mine is just reinvented the bracelet how big oh no you got a gold wire it just manually bend it around your ARM don't you have like six piercings i do i have a bunch of ear piercings i think they're gold they might also just be sterling silver i don't even know what they are and in the entire time that i've been on the internet they haven't changed except if i lost one so i i really don't i don't think about it a lot gold bar bracelets exist you've got to be kidding me gold bar bracelet okay let's let's check this out let's check this out that's not a gold bar no i want to see a gold bar yeah no this is not i mean with the amount of money that it would cost to buy that moon phase watch you can buy it the the googles are i think these things might be out of date there's a lot of disagreements um but it's like 7.3 troy ounces which i don't necessarily know what that converts to um but i think i'm looking for doesn't exist okay sorry i'll go over to you it'd be like a no i already closed it it'd be like a bar of gold on a strap yeah that's what he's talking about yeah like would you want it to be a gold strap or just like a leather strap with a bar of gold stuck on it because you want all the gold condensed right yeah that's smart yeah so i was thinking more of an unrefined like lump we're talking this thing yeah on a on a strap yeah yeah yeah but would you want it to look like a bar because to me the kind of i just want the raw metal it would be like an unprocessed hunk of gold um like like you would melt it down it'd be 100 gold i think but then it would just kind of like be in a lump if you were like a prospector and it was like gold that you like mined or something totally then that's badass yes but if you're just trying to flex then no it's got to be it's got to be like proper no this wasn't flex this was art statement okay like it's got to be it's got to be four nines royal canadian mint i've got a gold plus a leather bar a leather band awesome you know that streamer who did the i've got your whole house on my wrist thing yeah actually i've got your whole watch on my wrist i love that i think i can see an entire series where you have um you have different watch price points and they're all leather bands but the cost of the watch has a different amount of gold in it so like 35 000 of gold if a patek philippe that's like 1.2 million if this big lump of gold but they're all like the same watch and then you can just compare your lumps of gold and it would be the same mode depending on like market forces i was going to say all the pricing for the watches could just be market rate absolutely sorry excuse me five nines the royal canadian mint was the first to reach five nines that'd be a great art series somebody should do that line is gonna borrow 27 million dollars actually it's less after today it's just a it's just a small project thank you for tuning in we'll see you again next week same bad time same bad channel no down again bye"}
