1
00:00:00,000 --> 00:00:09,240
Okay, I don't think so. It doesn't seem like it. You're not alive. Yeah, but he actually seems to just be extremely confused and to have hurt himself in his confusion

2
00:00:10,200 --> 00:00:12,200
What's up, y'all?

3
00:00:14,280 --> 00:00:20,800
Yeah, yeah, I Accidentally started a Twitter feud again. It's been a while so I was kind of I was kind of overdue

4
00:00:21,800 --> 00:00:24,840
I just I don't know. I just kind of thought it was pretty obvious

5
00:00:24,880 --> 00:00:30,560
Yes, people do use plex and yes, it is more convenient than going to a rental store

6
00:00:31,640 --> 00:00:40,000
What are you talking about? I want to type something it's like almost certainly fine, but I'm gonna type it out. Oh just put it at the top of the dock. Oh

7
00:00:41,280 --> 00:00:47,600
No, he's typing it in an iPad because why would he send it to me digitally when he can send it to me physically by me?

8
00:00:48,200 --> 00:00:50,520
Putting my neck at an unnatural angle. Oh

9
00:00:51,640 --> 00:00:59,720
Weird my Floatplane chest not working I assume that's the problem because I assume Floatplane chat is rowdy as usual. How you guys doing there? It is

10
00:01:00,280 --> 00:01:03,560
nice What are we are we not red enough for you?

11
00:01:04,920 --> 00:01:09,200
Where we're red enough for them They're like in the red

12
00:01:10,080 --> 00:01:13,320
Mod mat will come when the mod mat is ready. It's like a wizard. I

13
00:01:14,200 --> 00:01:16,200
I

14
00:01:20,400 --> 00:01:26,240
Would ask him not me that's fair enough. I didn't think about it until now, but cool. I'm message. Yep

15
00:01:26,960 --> 00:01:30,080
That's that's I don't know. It is very fair. Yep

16
00:01:30,880 --> 00:01:34,120
Yeah, what I will say is you were right to wonder

17
00:01:34,520 --> 00:01:40,320
Yeah, the correct course of action. You were right to think that maybe I should not just say it. Yeah

18
00:01:40,320 --> 00:01:44,720
Yeah, cool. I had the thought of like, oh, yeah, that was like kind of fun. I should mention that and I was like, hmm

19
00:01:44,720 --> 00:01:51,840
I don't know if they want that Kansa says Linus is not a fan of people spam tagging him. Have I ever said that?

20
00:01:55,080 --> 00:02:03,840
I've never heard that I Don't think I've ever said that I'm very likely to just ignore it fake news. I am Jesus

21
00:02:04,160 --> 00:02:06,160
We're red

22
00:02:08,960 --> 00:02:14,560
It's not a hat Luke, it's not a hat Jesus

23
00:02:20,520 --> 00:02:23,520
Oh my goodness, I

24
00:02:24,960 --> 00:02:32,440
Think you need to get your display calibrated sure that's red brother. That's like really red. I mean, maybe it's me

25
00:02:34,360 --> 00:02:40,840
Maybe oh, is this TV output the same stream output because it's pretty red there too. Yeah, it's a little pink on there

26
00:02:40,840 --> 00:02:44,560
All my monitors are like weird colors. Kansa says you have yelled at me before

27
00:02:45,000 --> 00:02:51,480
During COVID when streaming among us because I asked five or six times about difficulty. Okay, so that's the thing

28
00:02:53,240 --> 00:03:01,840
This is a different problem If you tag me and you ask a question that I have seen and already decided not to answer because I

29
00:03:02,440 --> 00:03:10,600
Do see stuff then Tagging me a bunch more times about it is not going to make it more likely to get a response. I mostly just it's kind of like ads

30
00:03:10,600 --> 00:03:15,320
I mostly actually don't really see tags. So that's that that's the thing

31
00:03:18,080 --> 00:03:23,400
And don't worry, we're good I like completely forgot don't worry we're chill Kansa. We're good

32
00:03:24,680 --> 00:03:26,800
Hmm. Yeah, this is pink

33
00:03:27,840 --> 00:03:30,540
See pink red

34
00:03:32,480 --> 00:03:38,240
The color grading is weird way to go Dan

35
00:03:41,320 --> 00:03:45,780
The story of that thing was pretty was pretty fun. So hopefully hopefully he wants me to talk what?

36
00:03:47,080 --> 00:03:53,520
That's Zeme says have you banned anyone yet on reddit? No, I actually didn't even realize because I hadn't tried to do it

37
00:03:53,520 --> 00:03:56,200
That I did not even have user banning privileges. I

38
00:03:57,080 --> 00:03:59,280
Don't know man. It's one of those things where it's just like

39
00:04:02,840 --> 00:04:08,080
That was the funniest part for me to read the stuff on reddit afterwards was realizing like

40
00:04:19,440 --> 00:04:24,280
Oh, man I remember thinking like the comments on the show were gonna be about something else

41
00:04:24,280 --> 00:04:28,060
And I went to go check the comments and read it and then it was just like a bunch about that

42
00:04:28,060 --> 00:04:30,060
And I just got very uninterested very fast

43
00:04:32,680 --> 00:04:36,060
Okay, I think dozens of people were really upset about it

44
00:04:36,760 --> 00:04:40,160
There's like some topic that I thought there'd be some comments about that. I was interested

45
00:04:40,160 --> 00:04:43,160
I don't remember what it was now, but yeah, nope

46
00:04:43,760 --> 00:04:50,280
Some reddit mod stuff Okay, I don't know. It's one of those things like I'm in communication

47
00:04:51,020 --> 00:04:54,480
With our former community manager who now has another job here

48
00:04:54,480 --> 00:05:00,480
But is still doing some community management and the reddit moderation team and everything's gonna be fine

49
00:05:00,480 --> 00:05:04,880
And everyone can can really take a deep breath and relax. That's all cool. It's just yeah

50
00:05:08,160 --> 00:05:13,120
Yeah, I don't know man, you know how long I've been a super admin on the LTT forum

51
00:05:13,440 --> 00:05:19,040
You know how many people I've banned dude and the and you know and the people we haven't been

52
00:05:20,480 --> 00:05:28,320
Maybe more telling me Yeah, to be honest. I I I don't know I have to imagine it's it's probably worse

53
00:05:28,400 --> 00:05:33,680
But I don't I don't know what the reddit moderation team has to go through but it's probably rough and I commend them for managing it

54
00:05:33,680 --> 00:05:38,480
Yeah, I ever sent I've seen more way back in the day, but I try to

55
00:05:40,320 --> 00:05:46,400
Keep some amount of an eye on the forum And the forum moderation team is awesome. Yeah, a lot of them have been doing it forever

56
00:05:46,480 --> 00:05:51,760
Like I don't I'm not trying to diminish that at all. Nope the thing that I'm trying to diminish is like

57
00:05:53,840 --> 00:06:01,280
The potential Like the weight that some people seem to bear on the like oh my god

58
00:06:02,080 --> 00:06:08,080
I've been banned From life is over from a subreddit. Oh, no

59
00:06:09,200 --> 00:06:11,600
It's like dude. You're probably fine

60
00:06:12,400 --> 00:06:14,400
move on

61
00:06:15,680 --> 00:06:20,880
Whether you're right or wrong if you're in the wrong teachable moment move on you're good if you were right

62
00:06:21,680 --> 00:06:24,080
Not a teachable movement moment move on you're good

63
00:06:25,040 --> 00:06:28,320
You'll be fine. I don't know. I think you'll be okay. I think that

64
00:06:29,280 --> 00:06:33,760
You know, uh I do think for some people it is not that simple though

65
00:06:34,400 --> 00:06:40,880
like Literally what what reddit or the forum or social media like it or not

66
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:46,320
What it is for a lot of people is their community And I don't I'm not saying you have to like that

67
00:06:48,240 --> 00:06:54,320
But you do kind of have to Oh, yeah, sorry, you do kind of have to like yeah, it's red get it

68
00:06:55,600 --> 00:06:59,200
What what is the problem right now? What are people confused?

69
00:06:59,840 --> 00:07:03,760
No, I don't want to give it back to you. I like it. It's cute. No, no, no, no take it. I take it. I don't want it

70
00:07:08,960 --> 00:07:10,960
And now you can check to see if I did it, right?

71
00:07:14,480 --> 00:07:18,720
Yeah, I see yes was a lot of ai this year, man I

72
00:07:19,680 --> 00:07:24,800
Guess I guess I can't really relate. I've never been banned from a community. I don't know

73
00:07:26,320 --> 00:07:33,840
Right. Have you tried not being a douchebag in a community? So that probably worked pretty great

74
00:07:33,840 --> 00:07:35,840
That was good

75
00:07:37,280 --> 00:07:39,280
I don't know

76
00:07:40,880 --> 00:07:47,200
Yeah, it doesn't seem that complicated to me. I don't I have I ever been I've probably been banned from somewhere for something

77
00:07:47,280 --> 00:07:52,000
I don't think I have Surely I must have I've been temporary banned from games

78
00:07:53,120 --> 00:07:55,120
Just for like being too good

79
00:07:56,640 --> 00:08:00,720
I usually assume that's where he's going with something like this. I think I have no, okay

80
00:08:00,960 --> 00:08:04,480
So my my dad got yeah, I got like banned from like, you know

81
00:08:05,120 --> 00:08:10,400
the Mexican beach erection challenge because I was just too hard like

82
00:08:11,360 --> 00:08:13,520
You know, it's usually how his stories go

83
00:08:16,800 --> 00:08:21,680
Oh my god, I remember my my dad's wow account got permabanned because

84
00:08:22,400 --> 00:08:27,600
Way back in like high school I figured out that you could speed hack in like almost every game

85
00:08:28,640 --> 00:08:33,360
by Not almost every game but a lot of games at the time by messing around with your system clock

86
00:08:33,920 --> 00:08:37,520
Nice. So if you if you made your system clock go twice as fast

87
00:08:38,080 --> 00:08:43,840
Your movement speed and a lot of games counter strike. Wow tons of different games were based on your local system clock

88
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:49,120
Yeah, so In wow, I would just go to places where there would be like

89
00:08:49,600 --> 00:08:53,200
Basically, no one like I get like water walking and run on the ocean and just

90
00:08:54,480 --> 00:08:58,480
And just do that instead of like flying around because it was way faster

91
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:02,480
Right, but then my dad was like lol. I'm going to do this in a capture the flag match

92
00:09:02,960 --> 00:09:06,720
Uh and grab the flag and just ran around and no one could catch him

93
00:09:08,720 --> 00:09:10,720
Super cop

94
00:09:17,600 --> 00:09:21,120
And then he was like mad afterwards I was like you can't come on

95
00:09:23,280 --> 00:09:28,240
Teachable moment Oh man

96
00:09:31,200 --> 00:09:39,520
Someone says I've been banned from r slash pyeongyang. Oh, that's like a whole meme. Oh, is it? Okay. Yeah. All right. Well, it shows you what I know

97
00:09:40,000 --> 00:09:45,680
Oh, I did Is it banned? I don't know if I'm banned from getting a comp ts certificate

98
00:09:46,720 --> 00:09:48,720
But I did get my certificate revoked

99
00:09:50,720 --> 00:09:58,000
Um I do says I've only been banned from subreddits. I never posted in that's a thing

100
00:09:58,480 --> 00:10:04,400
Yeah, where you'll just get banned in other ones for having yeah for even being part. That's the pyeongyang one. Oh, is it?

101
00:10:04,480 --> 00:10:07,120
Yeah, what do you get banned for doing?

102
00:10:07,920 --> 00:10:11,200
Uh, I think it's posting like almost anywhere. Isn't it?

103
00:10:12,160 --> 00:10:16,560
Yeah, I think it's basically like if you're not in the if you're not in this subreddit

104
00:10:17,600 --> 00:10:20,960
you're Not ever allowed in this subreddit. I guess

105
00:10:21,920 --> 00:10:26,320
I don't know. Hmm. I'm not sure interesting. I'm sure someone can explain it

106
00:10:27,520 --> 00:10:32,320
I got banned from my city subreddit because I said exploiting people for money is bad

107
00:10:33,280 --> 00:10:37,360
So one said that's how capitalism works. I said you're not supposed to think about that

108
00:10:39,200 --> 00:10:43,360
Okay Okay, should we do this?

109
00:10:46,800 --> 00:10:51,040
Uh All right

110
00:10:51,440 --> 00:10:56,320
It's great Uh, oh, I guess I should move this

111
00:10:57,280 --> 00:11:00,480
there Yeah

112
00:11:00,560 --> 00:11:03,040
Uh, do I have the right right right? I need to bring up the thing

113
00:11:07,840 --> 00:11:10,320
Super weird issue on this laptop where if I middle click

114
00:11:11,200 --> 00:11:18,400
Like my clicks don't register a bit for a bit in certain places particularly like in like browser tabs and stuff

115
00:11:18,480 --> 00:11:21,520
It's really weird. I want to like reformat it. I think it's got to be just like, uh

116
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:25,200
Like just a bizarre corruption somewhere or something

117
00:11:37,520 --> 00:11:42,160
Uh I have to log in. Sorry, it'll be half an hour

118
00:11:49,360 --> 00:11:51,360
Oh

119
00:11:53,200 --> 00:11:56,240
Oh, it was a one click. Oh, dude, I get like

120
00:11:58,000 --> 00:12:00,800
I get like a I get like a dopamine hit

121
00:12:01,520 --> 00:12:08,320
When I go to to sign into our password manager and it just like doesn't prompt me to do the whole rigmarole

122
00:12:08,400 --> 00:12:12,240
That's like nine steps Oh, so good

123
00:12:12,640 --> 00:12:20,320
I think we are going to be moot. Mm-hmm Don't you promise me anything that you can't actually give me say no things please

124
00:12:22,080 --> 00:12:24,320
No, it's mostly I just don't want to like announce it

125
00:12:25,280 --> 00:12:31,440
Um, no, I don't believe in securities through obscurity, but also don't think I need to tell you everything that's happening all the time

126
00:12:35,600 --> 00:12:41,440
So Yeah, there's probably something happening that you will probably be happy about and that's about all I'll say for now

127
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:43,760
We take kind of uh, it's kind of a non. Yeah approach

128
00:12:44,640 --> 00:12:48,000
To this Yep

129
00:12:51,200 --> 00:12:55,360
But it's us luke, it's okay. No bad

130
00:12:58,160 --> 00:13:02,160
Band Kidding kidding kidding kidding

131
00:13:03,040 --> 00:13:09,280
I think we've banned very few people from Floatplane chat. Nice. Nice. Steve took the bait non your business

132
00:13:09,280 --> 00:13:11,280
Yeah

133
00:13:14,000 --> 00:13:16,560
Got him now a cloud player service

134
00:13:20,160 --> 00:13:24,400
We can be your third factor you have to ask Floatplane chat for permission to log into things

135
00:13:25,520 --> 00:13:30,320
They're like watching the stream like Yeah, it doesn't look like a deep fake. I think we're good to go. Yeah

136
00:13:31,840 --> 00:13:36,080
That would actually be oh It's an interesting service

137
00:13:36,800 --> 00:13:40,160
Like like mechanical turk like people just like

138
00:13:40,640 --> 00:13:45,680
Looking through the webcam and you hold up id like what are you even talking about? Yeah, man

Yeah, okay really high-level executive accounts celebrity 2fa you like can't log in if you're yeah

140
00:13:51,520 --> 00:13:56,880
If you're like super fans can recognize you then you're you're good to withdraw that money from your bank account

141
00:13:58,160 --> 00:14:03,280
I'm more talking about like corporate bigwig CEOs like multi billion dollar corporation CEOs

142
00:14:03,680 --> 00:14:06,640
Where like they actually can't log into things unless people are like, yeah, sure

143
00:14:09,680 --> 00:14:12,800
I feel personally targeted right now it'd be great

144
00:14:20,000 --> 00:14:27,200
You had that one coming. Yeah, that's fair. I shouldn't have leaned though. That's just mean

145
00:14:28,160 --> 00:14:34,080
Yeah, especially because I have to like almost constantly sniff

146
00:14:45,040 --> 00:14:49,920
Hey, nice Gilmore says shout out Mitchell for upholding the trust me bro guarantee

147
00:14:50,400 --> 00:14:54,400
Yeah, magic screwdriver showed up defective. He got another one on its way to me. You better believe it

148
00:14:54,880 --> 00:15:02,000
But now he's gonna take care of you And if you haven't seen his AMD ultimate tech upgrade that won't make any sense. It did make sense to me

149
00:15:03,280 --> 00:15:07,520
nice Um, okay. All right. I'm gonna do the thing

150
00:15:08,560 --> 00:15:13,360
I don't have to think you'll have to tell me when to start talking. Is the steam machine price leak in the dock

151
00:15:13,760 --> 00:15:17,040
Oh, no, but yeah, I would throw that in there. Okay. Yeah, we can talk about that

152
00:15:19,680 --> 00:15:22,640
Guess what I'm shoot. Okay. No, I'll save it. I'll save it. Yeah

153
00:15:22,880 --> 00:15:25,120
I mean the selected talking to me is illegal

154
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:29,360
No, I think it's more that you listening is illegal

155
00:15:30,720 --> 00:15:36,480
I think you've been on your phone more the last couple shows than like I haven't wanted to be genuinely

156
00:15:38,080 --> 00:15:43,120
There have been multiple topics that I'm like, okay I'm stalling for as long as I can here before I can

157
00:15:43,920 --> 00:15:46,800
Do a quick summary because I know Luke's not listening

158
00:15:47,200 --> 00:15:52,000
And then ask him a question people have really decided that it's extremely important to talk to me during the show

159
00:15:52,080 --> 00:15:55,680
Or that like oh this thing that I've been trying to tell you for a while

160
00:15:55,680 --> 00:15:59,920
I have to tell you right now. You need to know it right now. It's really important and then I check it and it's like

161
00:16:01,040 --> 00:16:06,080
Do you like waffles? I'm like, oh my I'm gonna die. Yeah, we like waffles. Do you like pancakes?

162
00:16:06,080 --> 00:16:11,760
Yeah, we like pancakes. Do you like french toast? Yeah, we like french toast. Doot. Doot. Doot. Doot. Can't wait to get a muffle

163
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:20,240
But yeah, it's been driving me actually insane, but anyways, hopefully this will be a no phone show that would be great

164
00:16:21,040 --> 00:16:30,160
All right Okay, I'm doing it. I'm doing it. I'm getting texted. Very cool. I'm freezing. All right. Oh, that might actually I did the thing

165
00:16:30,160 --> 00:16:32,160
It's too late. God damn it

166
00:16:50,240 --> 00:17:06,720
Happy Friday everyone and oh welcome to the wandshow. We've got a great show lined up for you guys this week

167
00:17:07,440 --> 00:17:12,880
Samsung is under fire for watching what you're watching roughly

168
00:17:13,520 --> 00:17:19,840
Twice every second and sharing that information with their partners. Yeah

169
00:17:20,320 --> 00:17:27,280
Yeah, not great. Um, our headline topic is of course though that youtube has met its match

170
00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:37,520
government regulation, that's right Vietnam has laid the smackdown on youtube banning unskippable ads or at least

171
00:17:38,000 --> 00:17:43,120
limiting how long unskippable ads can run on platforms like youtube

172
00:17:43,200 --> 00:17:47,760
I'm sure that is welcome news to the people in vietnam. What else we got this week

173
00:17:47,920 --> 00:17:50,480
The fastest version of Windows is probably

174
00:17:51,120 --> 00:17:59,360
Not what you'd expect and also Disney undercuts decades of incredible filmmaking technology with one of the weirdest worst videos

175
00:17:59,680 --> 00:18:05,440
I've maybe ever seen why did you pick that that actually caused me a certain amount of existential dread

176
00:18:05,600 --> 00:18:10,240
Because the person presenting it for some reason seemed to think that it was cool

177
00:18:11,120 --> 00:18:13,120
Which hurt my soul

178
00:18:18,000 --> 00:18:20,000
Oh

179
00:18:32,160 --> 00:18:34,160
The show is brought to you by

180
00:18:36,320 --> 00:18:38,320
blank

181
00:18:39,360 --> 00:18:46,640
Delta hub Alongside of course our wrap partner d brand our laptop partner razor

182
00:18:46,960 --> 00:18:49,520
And our chair partner who is also razor

183
00:18:51,280 --> 00:18:57,040
I remember now. Oh my god. I made it white for the reboot last week. What a professional professional show

184
00:19:02,960 --> 00:19:04,960
I'm confident

185
00:19:08,560 --> 00:19:14,320
Yeah, the new new and improved wend show now 50 50 owned by Linus and luke already things are going down

186
00:19:15,280 --> 00:19:18,000
How do you explain this? This is this is my fault for sure

187
00:19:18,880 --> 00:19:22,400
Someone tried to pin like an increased amount of ads on me or something

188
00:19:25,200 --> 00:19:33,840
Try Colton. Yeah Ah, man, let's jump right into our headline topic today, which is of course

189
00:19:34,320 --> 00:19:40,560
Vietnam's new rules limiting how long unskippable ads can run on platforms like youtube

190
00:19:41,040 --> 00:19:49,280
Uh, basically they uh, they said they suck and the rules are going to be targeting not only unskippable video ads

191
00:19:49,600 --> 00:19:54,800
But also targeting static ads and even putting bands on delays

192
00:19:55,200 --> 00:20:01,280
Before closing them these new rules are aimed at helping the user experience

193
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:06,320
claiming that these invasive ads are harming the viewing experience, which is um

194
00:20:07,280 --> 00:20:11,360
I mean interesting probably not not

195
00:20:12,080 --> 00:20:18,800
Not untrue. I think there's I mean, yeah, I don't think you could find anyone on the face of the earth and

196
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:26,720
Oh man, I'm bracing myself now I'm sure someone is going to come crawling out of the woodwork from somewhere to say

197
00:20:27,280 --> 00:20:33,200
Um, actually I love to be informed of quality products and services that could enhance my life

198
00:20:33,680 --> 00:20:37,440
But I don't think almost literally anyone would say yes

199
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:44,000
The ads on a platform enhance the user's enhance my user experience. Yeah, no

200
00:20:45,280 --> 00:20:47,600
I think the bigger question here though is

201
00:20:48,480 --> 00:20:56,240
What does this mean in terms of platform sustainability? I don't think it's any great secret that youtube relies

202
00:20:57,040 --> 00:21:02,240
In a significant way on ads to make their platform profitable

203
00:21:02,800 --> 00:21:05,760
Um, does it seem like a business decision?

204
00:21:06,640 --> 00:21:16,400
How much and where to run ads? Um, and to find that balance between what users will put up with and what is

205
00:21:17,120 --> 00:21:21,920
Sustainable in terms of profitably operating the platform um

206
00:21:22,160 --> 00:21:25,920
Would you be like let's let's turn it around and let's make it about our own stuff

207
00:21:26,560 --> 00:21:33,520
Would you be willing to operate Floatplane in vietnam if for whatever reason they said hey your means of

208
00:21:34,320 --> 00:21:42,560
Monetizing your platform We're over it. It's not good for users to have to pay for Floatplane. It just needs to be free to be fair. Yeah

209
00:21:43,840 --> 00:21:47,840
That's not quite what they're saying. No, no, they're not saying that they're saying you can run ads

210
00:21:47,840 --> 00:21:54,240
But I can tell you right now So what what do you think so like I can tell you that the kind of ads that they're going to allow are like not

211
00:21:54,640 --> 00:22:01,920
profitable in modern internet When you account for the video streaming bandwidth like it's and storage. It's just not like not a thing

212
00:22:02,320 --> 00:22:05,680
You think so this to me feels like they're going back to like five second ad skips

213
00:22:05,760 --> 00:22:10,160
Which youtube had for a long time when they were profitable They did but I mean

214
00:22:10,160 --> 00:22:16,240
We did I don't know if you remember we did that video on it was it was a very controversial topic of conversation

215
00:22:16,320 --> 00:22:23,840
Which I don't seem to be able to resist why 4k should be a premium feature on youtube storage has not continued

216
00:22:24,240 --> 00:22:26,960
To grow exponentially in capacity

217
00:22:27,520 --> 00:22:34,000
Any or sorry this one. It has not continued to grow exponentially in capacity anymore. It leveled off

218
00:22:34,800 --> 00:22:40,480
Ages ago in terms of cost per gig and the recent ai boom is not freaking helping with that

219
00:22:40,560 --> 00:22:44,560
I forget I forget who mentioned this to me recently, but they were telling me that like

220
00:22:45,760 --> 00:22:53,520
like major Major players like hyperscaler players are struggling to get enough hard drives right now

221
00:22:53,600 --> 00:22:57,520
Yeah, there's like envoys from people like microsoft going to

222
00:22:58,560 --> 00:23:04,560
Various countries trying to get hard drives and RAM and stuff in person trying to like show up at factories and be like, hey

223
00:23:05,360 --> 00:23:12,800
We need stuff So it's it's a pretty it's a very interesting thing going on right now that isn't being it's being talked about but not like

224
00:23:13,200 --> 00:23:15,920
As much as I would necessarily expect considering the

225
00:23:17,440 --> 00:23:20,400
Scale of what's currently happening if that makes sense

226
00:23:20,560 --> 00:23:24,320
I think monday's that Mondesio

227
00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:34,000
On Floatplane has a really interesting take You know what if all ads on every platform had to be short then advertisers would have to compete for

228
00:23:34,640 --> 00:23:40,160
Having a really compelling ad in a very short period of time and theoretically that would impact the

229
00:23:40,640 --> 00:23:46,640
You know the pricing of ads across the board and it wouldn't really harm the platforms as much and that is

230
00:23:47,440 --> 00:23:51,280
such A cool point that would require so much

231
00:23:52,140 --> 00:23:59,040
Coordination and international cooperation that unfortunately it's just not going to happen. I don't think so. I like it though a great example of that

232
00:23:59,280 --> 00:24:06,480
It actually happened recently around taxation for the ultra wealthy and I think particularly for corporations. I think it was

233
00:24:06,880 --> 00:24:12,400
Um, I believe they were they were targeting a 15 percent minimum corporate tax rate

234
00:24:13,120 --> 00:24:17,120
globally and there was there was like a ton of countries signed onto it

235
00:24:17,440 --> 00:24:21,840
And then recently I think this was in the last week or two the us basically went. No

236
00:24:23,120 --> 00:24:28,800
Um, and the idea behind it was that it would make it much harder for major corporations to just

237
00:24:29,600 --> 00:24:32,100
Dodge taxes by making their headquarters

238
00:24:33,040 --> 00:24:40,160
Somewhere that they could pretty much avoid ever actually making a profit and where they could they could they could shield their profitability

239
00:24:40,160 --> 00:24:43,520
But it required everyone to agree

240
00:24:44,320 --> 00:24:46,320
on having these rules and expecting

241
00:24:47,680 --> 00:24:51,920
every jurisdiction all around the world to cooperate on something as

242
00:24:53,280 --> 00:24:56,720
Don't take this the wrong way, but frankly unimportant as

243
00:24:57,760 --> 00:25:01,600
ads in front of a web video when they couldn't even agree on

244
00:25:02,400 --> 00:25:05,520
Hey, probably major corporations should be taxed

245
00:25:06,160 --> 00:25:09,760
Um, you know for the good of there are there are less

246
00:25:10,480 --> 00:25:12,800
billion and trillionaires involved in

247
00:25:13,680 --> 00:25:17,520
This one so you know it has that going for it, but yeah, I agree with you

248
00:25:18,960 --> 00:25:22,560
Maker boy says I saw a ticker ad across the bottom of a video today

249
00:25:22,720 --> 00:25:27,520
The creator said they were trying something new the ad did not interrupt the video at all

250
00:25:28,080 --> 00:25:34,160
I can tell you something though Part of the reason that you noticed it was because it was new over time

251
00:25:34,800 --> 00:25:40,960
You will learn to tune out the ticker ad which is why the advertising industry is always looking for

252
00:25:41,360 --> 00:25:45,280
Novel ideas. That's why it's always changing and

253
00:25:45,920 --> 00:25:53,040
I hate to use the word evolving because it has like a positive connotation when I say that bulbasaur evolved

254
00:25:53,440 --> 00:25:58,560
You expect to get vine whip, you know or razor whatever whatever the point is

255
00:25:58,960 --> 00:26:03,440
You expect bulbasaur to be better Whereas I feel like when ads evolve

256
00:26:04,080 --> 00:26:10,400
They get more intrusive. Yeah, which is a kind of better gain audio. Well, I guess that's more intrusive. Yeah

257
00:26:10,960 --> 00:26:12,960
Say something what?

258
00:26:15,360 --> 00:26:18,400
Like so they are they are better in terms of

259
00:26:19,120 --> 00:26:25,920
being Super effective at penetrating your ability to pay attention to what you actually want to be doing

260
00:26:26,000 --> 00:26:32,080
I'm trying to find an example, but I'm pretty sure uh garbage time. Mr. Mr. Dang pods did this recently

261
00:26:32,640 --> 00:26:38,640
um with with some stuff on his channel to promote like flow plane and whatnot he did like kind of

262
00:26:39,600 --> 00:26:42,560
Banner things whatever those are actually called. I don't remember

263
00:26:44,240 --> 00:26:47,840
But cool. It's interesting. Thank you. Luke interesting move

264
00:26:49,440 --> 00:26:52,720
Um I mean and all of this

265
00:26:53,040 --> 00:26:58,720
Ignore the fact that youtube is able to function basically as a monopoly at this point

266
00:26:59,200 --> 00:27:03,600
Right like in theory in theory. I'm pretty pro free market

267
00:27:04,160 --> 00:27:08,160
Right like you live or die by your ability to compete

268
00:27:09,040 --> 00:27:14,480
Fairly, but that last part right the f word there. That's that's sort of the critical part

269
00:27:14,880 --> 00:27:19,760
And youtube is at the point now where whether it's through their technological moat

270
00:27:20,240 --> 00:27:24,960
Or whether it's through their regulatory moat or whether it's through their

271
00:27:25,600 --> 00:27:28,160
Uh, their business relationships moat

272
00:27:29,760 --> 00:27:35,760
What would fair competition with youtube even look like so so you could say well if users don't like how many ads

273
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:42,720
There are on youtube then they should just take their business somewhere else, but like to what what can compete with youtube microsoft has tried

274
00:27:43,600 --> 00:27:46,720
um There's like msn video

275
00:27:47,280 --> 00:27:53,520
Um, which like what's that like weird one that we uploaded to for daily motion daily motion has tried vimeo tried

276
00:27:53,520 --> 00:27:58,560
Vimeo has completely given up on being an alternative to youtube at this point as far as I can tell for years now

277
00:27:58,880 --> 00:28:03,680
Does daily motion still exist? This is an interesting question

278
00:28:03,680 --> 00:28:05,840
Daily motion has your channel on

279
00:28:07,360 --> 00:28:12,640
Daily motion totally still exists. Okay, so every piece has vine. Okay

280
00:28:13,680 --> 00:28:17,280
all right Okay, yeah rumble sure

281
00:28:18,000 --> 00:28:20,000
Wow daily motion has shorts

282
00:28:21,760 --> 00:28:25,680
And it's the first thing you see when you get to the site. Wow, it's all

283
00:28:27,840 --> 00:28:33,600
Watch mojo's on there. Where's where's look up line of tech tips? Hold on. Hold on. I just want to I want to see

284
00:28:33,680 --> 00:28:38,400
Do they do they have view counts? Do they have view counts? Hold on if you click on one, maybe. Yeah, let's check. Let's check

285
00:28:40,240 --> 00:28:44,000
No, okay. Okay player interface is a little different. So it's only up here

286
00:28:44,000 --> 00:28:48,960
I can't I can interface with it down here. Is there are there do they have comments?

287
00:28:49,920 --> 00:28:52,240
Are there are are there comments on daily motion?

288
00:28:53,200 --> 00:28:56,800
Here draper stunned by whatever 10 months ago. Let's see

289
00:28:58,800 --> 00:29:02,480
Uh Apparently not

290
00:29:02,480 --> 00:29:06,880
Either that or there's content here that is getting literally zero views. Yeah

291
00:29:08,000 --> 00:29:10,320
I don't understand how these guys are still around

292
00:29:11,680 --> 00:29:14,720
There's a connect button on the top right. I think yeah, that's just to log in

293
00:29:18,880 --> 00:29:23,360
Let's see. Okay. Sorry. You want me to click on mojo? No line is tech tips. Oh, right, right, right, right

294
00:29:23,360 --> 00:29:26,560
Yeah, we used to have a channel dude. You've got some followers

295
00:29:28,720 --> 00:29:35,600
Whoa buddy 357. Yeah, so we could be the 358th

296
00:29:36,240 --> 00:29:41,360
It looks like the last time we uploaded to this was wanshow. Oh my god, august 4th 2017

297
00:29:42,720 --> 00:29:48,960
It's baby luke It's baby luke. Look at the baby luke. He's so cute

298
00:29:49,680 --> 00:29:53,280
Dude, I liked that that logo with the planes. I thought that was cool. Super cool

299
00:29:54,240 --> 00:29:58,400
Is it baby luke? Where was this? That's a thick laptop

300
00:29:59,360 --> 00:30:06,000
Oh Dude arc. Is that's a arkham asylum? Yeah. No. No, hold on. This might be arkham city

301
00:30:06,160 --> 00:30:10,800
I don't I don't know the difference between the games at all to be honest. Yeah, I think this has got to be arkham city

302
00:30:10,960 --> 00:30:17,520
I only ever launched them for benchmarking. Nice. You didn't really? Yep. Oh dude arkham asylum is so good

303
00:30:17,520 --> 00:30:22,800
I heard they were good games. Yeah, I just never came around like oh, it's apparently arkham origins. Okay. Sorry. Sorry guys

304
00:30:23,360 --> 00:30:26,800
Which that's the third one. I think right. I did not get into that one

305
00:30:27,040 --> 00:30:34,400
Dude, look at you looking like a rapper on stage. What's this unboxing the rx vega? Look at you. Yeah, buddy

306
00:30:35,360 --> 00:30:38,240
Yeah, buddy. That was at the first ltx

307
00:30:39,920 --> 00:30:46,800
So anyway, the point is we uploaded to daily motion for years and managed to amass a total of

308
00:30:48,160 --> 00:30:55,760
350 followers, so Um, is that sustainable? How do they have this many uploads and storage and?

309
00:30:56,480 --> 00:31:01,840
Um everything who owns daily motion. What is it? I'm finding out. I'm finding out

310
00:31:02,480 --> 00:31:05,840
French online video sharing platform owned by canal plus

311
00:31:06,640 --> 00:31:09,140
Prior to 2024 it was owned by vivendi

312
00:31:10,640 --> 00:31:12,640
Like that vivendi

313
00:31:14,240 --> 00:31:19,200
What do you mean that vivendi isn't it wasn't vivendi uh gaming of some sort back in the day?

314
00:31:20,000 --> 00:31:23,680
Oh, no wait. Hold on. I must be thinking of a completely different thing. I think so

315
00:31:23,920 --> 00:31:29,760
No vivendi games was an american video game publisher and holding company based in los angeles. That was a completely different thing

316
00:31:30,000 --> 00:31:32,640
Oh, okay. All right. Cool. So yeah, no, this is

317
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:36,320
Vivendi

318
00:31:37,360 --> 00:31:41,360
Okay, this is a french investment company headquartered in pali

319
00:31:42,080 --> 00:31:46,000
So, uh, yeah, no, how have they not cut off daily motion?

320
00:31:47,440 --> 00:31:57,280
Dude, I don't know I have no oh they have so they divested of it recently and now it is owned by canal group. But why would

321
00:31:58,800 --> 00:32:03,760
Why would canal want it? I don't I I have never understood at any point in time

322
00:32:03,840 --> 00:32:09,520
What daily motion is supposed to even be the warden zero zero says it's gotta be money laundering

323
00:32:09,760 --> 00:32:14,400
Okay, but that's the thing guys. I keep I keep like hearing that people will say

324
00:32:15,360 --> 00:32:20,480
Anytime there's something that people can't explain. I feel like they just go straight to

325
00:32:21,840 --> 00:32:27,600
It's got to be a write-off or it's going to be money laundering in bc. It might be true, but I don't I don't know

326
00:32:29,520 --> 00:32:37,760
And in many cases Here in bc in many cases. I can definitely see how that might be the case

327
00:32:39,120 --> 00:32:44,160
But what would be the money laundering purpose of this? Why would they update it with like shorts?

328
00:32:44,400 --> 00:32:50,160
Because I thought the whole and and correct me if I'm wrong. I've never engaged in criminal enterprise before

329
00:32:50,640 --> 00:32:56,320
But my understanding of money laundering is the idea is that you have a functioning business

330
00:32:56,960 --> 00:32:59,360
Into which you can mix both

331
00:33:00,640 --> 00:33:07,520
Like like genuine proceeds of the business functioning as it does and ill-gotten gains

332
00:33:07,920 --> 00:33:12,000
And mix them together in a way that they are hard to differentiate from each other

333
00:33:12,240 --> 00:33:16,480
So like in Breaking Bad Walter White buys the car wash

334
00:33:16,960 --> 00:33:24,800
So that he has real revenues that could easily be cash revenues that he can put his ill-gotten cash in with

335
00:33:25,520 --> 00:33:29,120
and And and mask the source of it

336
00:33:29,760 --> 00:33:33,200
But if you have something that as far as I can tell could not

337
00:33:34,080 --> 00:33:37,760
Possibly do anything other than lose copious amounts of money

338
00:33:38,640 --> 00:33:42,880
And would operate entirely digitally with no cash

339
00:33:44,240 --> 00:33:47,360
What would be the what would be the money laundering purpose of it? I

340
00:33:48,080 --> 00:33:52,960
And and it might be I don't know. I'm not a crook

341
00:33:55,040 --> 00:34:02,640
But I just I don't understand that so maybe Floatplane chat could be happy to um, you know help me out here

342
00:34:02,720 --> 00:34:06,320
But like they have they have features conrad back to my thing

343
00:34:07,280 --> 00:34:14,000
Conrad and Floatplane chat new one LTT Store cash payments cash cash cash for your bones

344
00:34:16,640 --> 00:34:22,000
Too many bones not enough cash try cash bones. Sorry. It's a future on my reference

345
00:34:22,480 --> 00:34:27,440
You can tell they're trying they have like the infinity ads in the sidebar here and when you scroll

346
00:34:27,440 --> 00:34:36,560
Oh god, they refresh god So they have they have like a full block of ads in the sidebar that refresh as you scroll one user is getting you like

347
00:34:37,840 --> 00:34:41,680
A 20 friggin ad impressions. Oh god, they refresh even when you don't scroll. Oh, yeah

348
00:34:42,560 --> 00:34:47,600
Whoa, yeah, so the ads are crazy. Also. Look at this. They have three of the same ad running right now

349
00:34:47,680 --> 00:34:51,520
No, dude, I watched so not allowed. I watched a video that had three pre-roll ads

350
00:34:51,520 --> 00:34:55,760
They were all the same ad that is so not allowed that is so gaming it

351
00:34:56,640 --> 00:35:00,240
And then they they like have features like they have video transcripts

352
00:35:01,040 --> 00:35:04,880
You can turn this on and it it looks like they have some form of like

353
00:35:05,600 --> 00:35:10,320
Thing trying to generate a video transcript So that somebody had to make that

354
00:35:10,560 --> 00:35:14,160
Uh, you go back they have shorts now. They like

355
00:35:14,800 --> 00:35:19,120
Support the new format. They have an app that they're clearly keeping up to date to a certain degree

356
00:35:19,280 --> 00:35:23,600
Like someone's doing stuff. There are developers working on this and like keeping it

357
00:35:24,560 --> 00:35:32,880
Alive Dan vibes says I'm float playing chat daily motion still has over 400 employees according to wikipedia. Wow

358
00:35:34,160 --> 00:35:42,080
And lucky drive 1984 says I think many websites use daily motions video player. So this is a b2b play maybe

359
00:35:42,480 --> 00:35:46,000
But then why let random users upload to it or maybe they don't

360
00:35:47,280 --> 00:35:51,840
I legitimately don't know legitimately have no idea

361
00:35:52,400 --> 00:35:54,560
And there's honestly not a ton of

362
00:35:55,680 --> 00:36:00,880
Information on their like wikipedia page doesn't even say like how it works or anything like that

363
00:36:01,280 --> 00:36:06,320
I think your wikipedia page is probably longer than this. I don't mind doesn't exist. No, it does

364
00:36:06,800 --> 00:36:11,600
It just is not easy to find. Hold on. We're gonna fix it though. We're gonna fix it though

365
00:36:12,240 --> 00:36:18,400
Uh, hold on. It's it's in draft form. Yeah. Yeah, well, I mean that's kind of existence

366
00:36:19,600 --> 00:36:21,600
Here here it is

367
00:36:22,720 --> 00:36:28,480
Apparently they updated it to include the wanshow stuff. Okay. No, it's not longer than that's not longer than daily motion

368
00:36:28,640 --> 00:36:33,440
We got to get it longer. We got to pump those numbers up Those are rookie numbers

369
00:36:37,280 --> 00:36:39,280
I gotta do something I gotta do something stupid

370
00:36:41,200 --> 00:36:44,880
Oh, yeah, that would be the way. Yep. I think that would actually do it

371
00:36:44,880 --> 00:36:50,320
Like if you had like a borderline Darwin award like a major controversy you could I don't know you could like

372
00:36:50,720 --> 00:36:54,240
It's the whole like you could get like a benchmark wrong on something rise to power

373
00:36:55,760 --> 00:37:00,960
Being in power fall execution. You need an arc. Yeah, okay. Yeah

374
00:37:03,680 --> 00:37:06,720
Uh crystal says daily motion does let the public upload

375
00:37:07,840 --> 00:37:14,080
There you go. Okay. Well, good luck with that everyone. Uh, why don't we move on to our next topic? You want to pick it? Um, sure

376
00:37:14,080 --> 00:37:19,680
No, I didn't tell him what he was picking could be my nose could be my butt

377
00:37:22,400 --> 00:37:24,400
Um, I guess it's oh my god

378
00:37:25,440 --> 00:37:33,520
Let's talk about Windows. In order though Dan It takes a screenshot Windows the fastest version of Windows probably isn't what you expect. Okay. Hold on. Hold on

379
00:37:33,840 --> 00:37:36,720
Let's let the people post. Let's let the people post in the chat

380
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:43,760
Yeah, what do you think is the fastest Windows? Well, the first person's definitely wrong xp. Uh, no

381
00:37:44,640 --> 00:37:49,920
I don't xp is a funny one expect xp is a funny one because people have so

382
00:37:50,640 --> 00:37:56,560
Much nostalgia goggles for Windows xp Windows xp was a piece of shit until like service pack two

383
00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:06,240
sp2 was Goated sp2 was Windows xp in the early days kind of sucked. I think we were just coming from millennium edition

384
00:38:06,400 --> 00:38:10,080
Which was like way worse. This is what I was saying. I think it was good for the time

385
00:38:10,320 --> 00:38:15,120
Dude, I had a lot of problems, but I think it was good for the time and I think computing back then was very fun

386
00:38:16,160 --> 00:38:20,000
That's fair and you could have fun with Windows xp Windows xp was fun

387
00:38:20,160 --> 00:38:27,040
So it didn't really matter that it had problems. It was fun. It is amazing. How much of chat is totally wrong

388
00:38:27,360 --> 00:38:33,200
I don't know if I've seen pretty much it. Oh, okay. There's a couple people in there who said it very definitively

389
00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:37,600
Which makes me think they just read the article. There's there's there's some in there. There's some in there. Okay

390
00:38:38,400 --> 00:38:43,200
All right hackaday reports on a benchmark battle featuring every version of Windows since 2001

391
00:38:43,680 --> 00:38:46,320
Which means xp vista seven eight point one

392
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:52,080
10 and 11 Apparently not eight. I see those as different, but that's okay

393
00:38:52,560 --> 00:38:55,520
Um before we get into the results, which version do you think we'll win?

394
00:38:55,760 --> 00:39:01,040
I top of head guessed seven when I first looked at the this whole thing happening

395
00:39:01,120 --> 00:39:06,320
I knew the answer but only because we've benchmarked Windows editions before

396
00:39:06,880 --> 00:39:13,600
and because Because of the whole okay, this is a bit of a spoiler but because of the whole Windows nine thing

397
00:39:14,320 --> 00:39:19,520
Do you remember Windows nine? Yeah, so there's a reason. Yeah that modded

398
00:39:20,160 --> 00:39:22,800
A tuned up version of that the best Windows

399
00:39:23,520 --> 00:39:30,080
Was the best Windows for like quite an extended period of time now. Did they get into modding? No

400
00:39:30,640 --> 00:39:35,280
Okay, no, so that's why I guess that's why I knew yeah because even not modded

401
00:39:35,360 --> 00:39:42,320
So a lot of the mods for Windows nine were less about performance actually and more just about cleaning up memory usage

402
00:39:42,640 --> 00:39:45,360
And improving stability and making the user interface

403
00:39:46,240 --> 00:39:49,760
Windows nine was so goaded that guy reached out and said he's working on one for

404
00:39:50,400 --> 00:39:54,800
11 I'm actually stoked. Yeah. Okay. Anyway carry on uh youtuber

405
00:39:57,920 --> 00:40:04,720
Triggs triggers old triggers old Nice, uh loaded half a dozen thinkpad x2 20s

406
00:40:05,680 --> 00:40:13,040
So an i5 25 20 m 8 gigs of RAM 25 6 200 sorry 256 gig SSD and Intel hd

407
00:40:13,600 --> 00:40:18,880
3000 with the professional versions of the last six iterations of Windows got everything totally up to date

408
00:40:18,880 --> 00:40:21,120
Which is kind of impressive in its own regard

409
00:40:22,240 --> 00:40:28,000
In a few ways and conducted a bunch of experiments to learn how Windows performance has changed over the last two and a half decades

410
00:40:28,000 --> 00:40:35,760
Which is a brilliant idea. Yeah super cool idea fantastic work. Maybe uh, go check it out instead of just listening to this

411
00:40:37,280 --> 00:40:41,120
They did boot to desktop times disk usage times and uh

412
00:40:41,840 --> 00:40:47,600
Five gigabytes RAM test how many chromium tabs can be open before we hit five gigs RAM. That's interesting for boot to desktop

413
00:40:47,840 --> 00:40:52,800
Fastest to slowest 8.1 Um is the oldest version with fast boot

414
00:40:53,680 --> 00:40:58,880
So it has fast boot, but it's the lightest os that makes sense little combination of the ones with fast

415
00:40:59,200 --> 00:41:03,360
It's like wicked fast xp and 10 tide, which is hilarious

416
00:41:04,640 --> 00:41:09,040
Just have to say uh seven vista and 11 all had uh

417
00:41:10,160 --> 00:41:20,160
Taskbar issues or is that just 11 had tasks 11? Yeah So seven of vista were kind of slow and then 11 the taskbar took forever to load which sounds about on brand in fairness to 11

418
00:41:20,240 --> 00:41:24,640
This is not supported hardware on Windows 11, but then that's like

419
00:41:25,360 --> 00:41:29,040
I don't know kind of people's problem with Windows 11. Oh a big part of it. So

420
00:41:29,760 --> 00:41:36,640
Yeah, take the l Windows 11 Windows 7 was the the the worst at disk use. Is that just how big the operating system is?

421
00:41:36,960 --> 00:41:44,320
Yeah, that's not too surprising And then the five gigs RAM test for sort of for how many tabs you can have open the best was Windows 8.1 and 7

422
00:41:44,720 --> 00:41:48,800
at 252 And 235 tabs doesn't that?

423
00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:56,960
Okay, so Windows 8.1 one Well, it's a huge gap between the other ones. I guess. Yeah, the worst was Windows xp that makes sense

424
00:41:57,360 --> 00:42:01,280
Um, oh wait really Windows xp and 11. Yeah

425
00:42:01,920 --> 00:42:05,600
50 tabs for xp and 49 for 11 really

426
00:42:06,560 --> 00:42:11,040
I mean, she's a hungry boy luke. She's got to get the telemetry data somehow

427
00:42:12,000 --> 00:42:20,800
Best overall was 8.1 Windows 11 is generally the slowest actually what I suspect is that with xp it's it's it's just

428
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:26,800
Inefficiently managing it. Yeah, and then with 11. It's just a heavier os overall

429
00:42:27,280 --> 00:42:32,320
So you just have less RAM left To put chrome tabs in would be my would be my guess

430
00:42:33,120 --> 00:42:37,840
Whereas like something like Windows 8 like Dude Windows. Okay, and to be clear

431
00:42:38,080 --> 00:42:43,200
That was why luke and I both raised an eyebrow when we were reading through every version of Windows

432
00:42:43,600 --> 00:42:46,480
Because Windows 8 was a giant steaming

433
00:42:47,040 --> 00:42:53,040
Dumpster fire. We would all love to forget that Windows 8 ever existed. Yeah, but but I think I think

434
00:42:53,600 --> 00:43:00,880
Whitewashing the history of Windows 8.x and just referring to it as yes only Windows 8.1

435
00:43:00,960 --> 00:43:08,640
That was the only one that existed Is um not giving enough credit to how long microsoft stubbornly

436
00:43:09,280 --> 00:43:12,240
Stuck us with that horrible metro ui

437
00:43:13,360 --> 00:43:22,480
That was not immediately Obviously removable on the early versions of Windows 8 like it was it was a long time

438
00:43:22,560 --> 00:43:29,360
They didn't just launch this thing in early access and go. No. Oh, wow. This sucks. Okay. Well, we have a launch date to hit

439
00:43:29,440 --> 00:43:32,480
But we're gonna get that fixed like like right quick fast for you guys

440
00:43:33,120 --> 00:43:38,080
It was bad for a really long time and then 8.1 came and just

441
00:43:39,280 --> 00:43:43,680
Fixed it october 2012 was Windows 8's release date

442
00:43:44,240 --> 00:43:49,360
looks like It was released to manufacturing on august 1st 2012

443
00:43:52,640 --> 00:43:55,440
And then 8.1 I just lost one of my ears

444
00:43:59,360 --> 00:44:05,360
I don't know if it uh, oh did I sorry i'll fix it maybe and then 8.1 was octo. Yeah, so it took a year

445
00:44:06,320 --> 00:44:08,880
And that was a dark year that was a long

446
00:44:09,600 --> 00:44:16,880
Working at a computer retailer. Yeah, that was a long year eight was the only operating system that I ever

447
00:44:18,400 --> 00:44:22,000
Didn't the only modern. Okay. Hmm. How do I define this?

448
00:44:22,880 --> 00:44:27,680
Eight is the only operating system since 2000 where I had a personal computer and never installed it

449
00:44:27,840 --> 00:44:33,360
I had 8.1, but I think I only ever really dove into 8.1 with Windows 9

450
00:44:33,600 --> 00:44:37,920
Interesting. I think I held on to 7 and then went Windows 9

451
00:44:38,880 --> 00:44:44,000
Which is 8.1 solidly for sure. I'm accepting that but it was a modded version of 8.1

452
00:44:44,160 --> 00:44:49,840
And I think that to me means I kind of skipped one because I see 8.1 and 8 so differently

453
00:44:50,560 --> 00:44:57,040
I'm trying to remember if I went 8 or 8.1 on my desktop because I don't think I figured out how good

454
00:44:57,760 --> 00:45:00,400
8.1 was until Windows 10 was already out

455
00:45:01,360 --> 00:45:08,400
And like 8.1 had turned into like the sexy remember when Windows was way lighter and when search worked

456
00:45:09,520 --> 00:45:13,840
Yeah Because I think 8.1 was the last one where the search didn't suck

457
00:45:15,600 --> 00:45:22,560
Yes, I'm pretty sure that's true. Yeah, so I actually picked up on 8.1 for like running VMs and stuff

458
00:45:23,360 --> 00:45:25,680
And I don't I don't know if I ever desktoped it

459
00:45:26,480 --> 00:45:31,520
I I don't actually I don't I don't I don't remember but I I definitely don't like fondly remember using it

460
00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:34,720
Like I did with vista for instance, which I know is a controversial take

461
00:45:34,800 --> 00:45:41,120
But I genuinely liked Windows 9 deal with it. I loved vista, but I think part of the reason why I liked Windows 9 was because it was such a like

462
00:45:42,080 --> 00:45:46,400
fu Oh, yeah Nice to be honest

463
00:45:46,400 --> 00:45:51,520
I was reminiscing over the weekend with a buddy of mine about uh Windows vista black edition

464
00:45:52,240 --> 00:45:57,440
Um, which was another yeah, yeah, uh, which was another like Windows 9 style like

465
00:45:58,160 --> 00:46:02,240
community mod And black edition was awesome actually

466
00:46:03,120 --> 00:46:05,600
I used to have my Windows xp

467
00:46:06,800 --> 00:46:11,840
Um boot logo modded to i'm trying to find the exact

468
00:46:12,720 --> 00:46:16,080
One I think it was this one without the without the shine

469
00:46:16,880 --> 00:46:20,000
I I had it set up to load Windows xp pirated edition

470
00:46:20,720 --> 00:46:25,760
For the like the loading bar. Yeah, um, apparently that's been popular

471
00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:33,120
across many Okay, I specifically searched for xp, but there are also some ones in here that are not xp

472
00:46:34,080 --> 00:46:37,520
Like this one apparently was vista. Is that an upside down nice?

473
00:46:39,760 --> 00:46:46,320
Spicy All right Man, uh, I'll I'll make it work. I can either have

474
00:46:46,960 --> 00:46:48,960
My left ear or my right ear active

475
00:46:50,240 --> 00:46:53,200
It seems to be the cable day. Anyway, go check out

476
00:46:54,720 --> 00:47:00,320
No, no, I leaned over. I probably bumped something down. I'm sorry. It's okay. It's fine. We'll deal with it. Um

477
00:47:03,040 --> 00:47:06,880
All right, what do you want to do next next topic? Yeah, uh, should we do the disney one?

478
00:47:07,440 --> 00:47:12,480
Are we showing it? Are we gonna get the video demonetized? Let's just show it. I don't care. All right disney undercuts

479
00:47:13,440 --> 00:47:22,480
This is like This one actually hurt. I don't know. Uh, disney undercuts decades of incredible filmmaking technology with ai animals

480
00:47:23,200 --> 00:47:28,960
vfx extraordinaire rob bradow known for his work on star wars through industrial light and magic

481
00:47:29,200 --> 00:47:33,680
Which is owned by disney gave a mostly interesting

482
00:47:33,920 --> 00:47:39,520
Is the nose 15 minute ted talk about how technology has enabled artists to more

483
00:47:39,520 --> 00:47:43,840
If uh to more effectively tell their stories or something something their stories

484
00:47:44,240 --> 00:47:51,360
However, it was punctuated by a one and a half minute ai generated alien creature montage designed to get the audience

485
00:47:51,520 --> 00:47:54,720
excited about the future of ai tools for filmmakers

486
00:47:55,280 --> 00:47:59,760
And to be clear, this is if this is one that i'm thinking of it is specifically

487
00:48:00,240 --> 00:48:05,920
Set up as an artist's vision of what star wars worlds might look like

488
00:48:06,720 --> 00:48:08,960
If a i think it was like a scout drone

489
00:48:09,840 --> 00:48:14,560
Is visiting. Yeah, we'll see. Oh, yeah. Yeah, there we go. Yeah, it is this one. Oh, hi.

490
00:48:18,160 --> 00:48:20,800
And yeah, this cry. Yeah, you know watch for yourself

491
00:48:21,440 --> 00:48:26,400
Okay, before we do this. No forget the audio. It doesn't matter before we do this

492
00:48:28,560 --> 00:48:35,440
I didn't think this was real I was in the car with I think it was uh adam and

493
00:48:36,880 --> 00:48:42,320
Who else was chilling with us was glenn our camera op? I think I think glenn was there and um

494
00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:45,760
I think we had someone from the business team there. It doesn't matter. The point is

495
00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:52,400
Everyone was like talking about it Which made me feel like like like it's real

496
00:48:53,120 --> 00:49:00,000
And adam insisted that it was that it was like cringe and like you won't believe what disney did and so I was like

497
00:49:00,560 --> 00:49:05,680
So I was so I was prepared What I assumed he was talking about

498
00:49:06,480 --> 00:49:10,240
Because he's like, yeah, you won't believe this disney ai thing and everyone was like, yeah, yeah, yeah

499
00:49:10,320 --> 00:49:13,440
And I was like, it's weird that we're all talking about this right now

500
00:49:13,520 --> 00:49:20,480
It sounds like real, but I don't understand why we're so upset because disney announced their partnership with open ai recently and so

501
00:49:20,960 --> 00:49:25,920
So people could you know, saura disney characters like like did someone fanfic

502
00:49:26,640 --> 00:49:32,720
Something disney and you're like just depressed for the future of storytelling because it was like the worst fanfic thing ever

503
00:49:32,800 --> 00:49:36,480
Like I got I got kind of confused because I hadn't heard anything about it

504
00:49:37,040 --> 00:49:40,160
In this lead-up conversation and adam's like no, no, no, no, no

505
00:49:40,240 --> 00:49:43,120
This is something else entirely different and he showed it to me

506
00:49:44,480 --> 00:49:46,480
And it took me probably

507
00:49:48,320 --> 00:49:50,640
Three or four slides

508
00:49:52,160 --> 00:49:56,880
To go wait This is official

509
00:49:57,680 --> 00:50:02,480
Like this is not like cringe fan bullshit

510
00:50:03,200 --> 00:50:06,160
Like this came from disney

511
00:50:06,720 --> 00:50:13,120
So with that preparation in mind, this is an actual disney employee

512
00:50:13,920 --> 00:50:16,080
talking about the future of

513
00:50:17,200 --> 00:50:26,880
human imagination Of a brand new star wars planet and the creatures that might accompany it or inhabit it, excuse me

514
00:50:29,680 --> 00:50:33,760
Oh My god, yeah

515
00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:38,000
So What is this

516
00:50:38,080 --> 00:50:42,480
It's like a sloth with what looks like

517
00:50:42,480 --> 00:50:48,320
Really poorly done water droplets on it or something metal or something metal metal sloth. Sure

518
00:50:49,520 --> 00:50:56,720
A lot of this is like, you know, uh, I don't know 2006 facebook two animals hybrided together

519
00:50:56,880 --> 00:50:59,360
This is uh, it's a video a zebra gorilla

520
00:51:00,560 --> 00:51:02,960
A fish lizard fish lizard. It's a snail

521
00:51:03,680 --> 00:51:07,280
This is this is the first one adam showed me. Yeah

522
00:51:08,560 --> 00:51:10,560
It's a snail bird

523
00:51:12,160 --> 00:51:16,160
We did a snail cock I mean

524
00:51:17,360 --> 00:51:21,280
Really disney. Yeah. Yeah, it's just yeah, that is what it is

525
00:51:23,920 --> 00:51:30,880
Very creative let's go on Oh, wow. Oh, wow. This time we hybrided a zebra with a polar bear

526
00:51:31,120 --> 00:51:35,040
Yeah, and put it in an environment that it will not survive in very good. Can you imagine

527
00:51:36,080 --> 00:51:42,880
firing up a new star wars film and seeing, you know, one of these attacking the reanimated corpse of

528
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:47,920
Palpatine for some reason Another time. Yeah

529
00:51:48,800 --> 00:51:58,240
A flamingo iguana Let's blow up another really big space structure with palpatine on it. This is just a blue fawn

530
00:52:03,760 --> 00:52:05,760
It's it's rough and it goes on

531
00:52:06,800 --> 00:52:15,200
For so Freaking long guys check this out like Dan. Can you get rid of me for a sec? Thanks

532
00:52:17,760 --> 00:52:26,800
Guys It's like it goes on for way longer than ha ha a funny joke. We were just kidding you guys look at the

533
00:52:28,080 --> 00:52:31,920
Look at this It keeps going

534
00:52:33,440 --> 00:52:36,720
Like It goes on for a very long time

535
00:52:38,800 --> 00:52:43,760
And like if this was like some dude in the office and they're like hey look and they just showed it to their buddy

536
00:52:44,080 --> 00:52:49,920
And they're like, yeah, I threw this together in a few minutes or whatever I'll just mess it around like that's fine. I guess

537
00:52:50,560 --> 00:52:54,560
But like you're showing this off at a ted talk like

538
00:52:56,480 --> 00:53:04,000
You're a major multi-billion dollar International I almost don't care if this isn't like a high school student project. It's rough

539
00:53:04,640 --> 00:53:07,920
like What the okay the dumbest part

540
00:53:08,720 --> 00:53:12,400
Or not the no, this is actually far from the dumbest part, but

541
00:53:13,120 --> 00:53:16,880
I don't know this felt especially ridiculous to me was

542
00:53:17,520 --> 00:53:22,880
One day for two days or something before I found out about this before I had this conversation

543
00:53:23,680 --> 00:53:28,240
I I literally Did this

544
00:53:28,240 --> 00:53:34,480
And my whole point my whole point in our AMD coverage at ces this year

545
00:53:35,280 --> 00:53:41,680
was That am at AMD representative talked about how your ai could give you

546
00:53:42,240 --> 00:53:46,560
powerful financial advice And I was like

547
00:53:46,560 --> 00:53:51,440
lol um No, didn't they also say something about like

548
00:53:52,960 --> 00:53:57,600
Uh, I don't know changed the world through infinite energy or some like crazy claim. I thought they made some like

549
00:53:58,240 --> 00:54:07,440
Mind-blowing. I didn't hear that part But my point was this look. I don't think anyone's going to be upset about having a decent npu on your product

550
00:54:08,320 --> 00:54:13,760
Right so that you can and I literally used this as my example

551
00:54:14,640 --> 00:54:19,760
Of like just dumb bull that that people might want to do with their stupid crappy

552
00:54:20,720 --> 00:54:23,760
Like npu on their laptop. This was literally

553
00:54:24,960 --> 00:54:29,600
One of the two just stupid ridiculous. Who cares? It's just for lol's

554
00:54:30,320 --> 00:54:37,600
Things that I could come up with I came up with like a human made that in in 2008 or whatever. It was funny

555
00:54:39,360 --> 00:54:46,320
Zebra fish, ha ha ha ha. I used the photoshop blending tools to look dad zebra fish. Yeah

556
00:54:47,920 --> 00:54:49,920
How is this a credible?

557
00:54:51,360 --> 00:54:59,760
Conversation even From a major industry player like disney. Yeah, it's crazy and and ilm was like god tier

558
00:55:00,480 --> 00:55:05,360
For still is uh, yeah, this makes me concerned. But yeah, well, yeah, right? Yeah

559
00:55:06,000 --> 00:55:09,360
I'm sure they still have the talent somewhere. It just wasn't on stage

560
00:55:10,160 --> 00:55:14,640
Well, I don't know maybe that guy's good, but like it wasn't shown on the big screen on stage

561
00:55:15,120 --> 00:55:19,040
Is this during that section of the thing? I didn't watch the whole thing. Whatever is this 4d chess?

562
00:55:20,480 --> 00:55:22,720
Are they trying to generate backlash?

563
00:55:23,680 --> 00:55:28,080
In order to rebel against top level executives who are demanding more ai

564
00:55:28,880 --> 00:55:35,680
Please tell me that's it. Just tell me that's it. You know what I don't look their own entire career doing that

565
00:55:35,680 --> 00:55:37,680
That is a move that happens, but it's not that common

566
00:55:40,880 --> 00:55:46,880
Is that tell me that's it luke give me hope give me a new hope you might say for a third time

567
00:55:52,560 --> 00:55:54,880
Six star wars burn, that's a deep cut

568
00:55:55,600 --> 00:55:57,600
Not a deep cut

569
00:55:58,960 --> 00:56:02,240
But it cuts deep which is I guess where I got confused. Yeah

570
00:56:03,040 --> 00:56:07,360
Uh I don't believe it, but I hope so

571
00:56:08,240 --> 00:56:12,960
That's not enough. Yeah, tell me that's it. Tell me it's 4d chess. Please luke

572
00:56:14,480 --> 00:56:19,280
Because otherwise it might result in the same thing if it's not 4d chess then I think

573
00:56:20,000 --> 00:56:23,200
I'm just gonna give up and I'm gonna apply to work at disney

574
00:56:24,160 --> 00:56:28,480
Because apparently my ideas are just as good as theirs if that kind of stage you'd be fine

575
00:56:29,280 --> 00:56:32,000
You'd be you'd be totally fine tomorrow

576
00:56:34,160 --> 00:56:36,160
You can do what I did to get to get here

577
00:56:37,680 --> 00:56:43,920
Just lie on my resume. Yeah, I isn't even lying anymore. I created zebrafish. Is it even lying anymore? I trade trademarked it

578
00:56:44,640 --> 00:56:48,880
patented zebrafish Oh

579
00:56:50,160 --> 00:56:55,360
I hate this Okay, um, it's okay. We have some discussion questions here

580
00:56:57,760 --> 00:57:01,840
Some of them are interesting. Uh, do you see anything in the video the guy who excited? No, not at all

581
00:57:02,080 --> 00:57:05,920
Um, how long before we're forced to watch ai generated content in a major motion picture?

582
00:57:06,160 --> 00:57:10,080
I just won't go watch it. I've been doing that for a long time Would we be surprised?

583
00:57:10,080 --> 00:57:16,800
Would you be surprised to hear that it has sort of already been used extensively or something? No, because like

584
00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:19,840
even if it's at the concept art stage where

585
00:57:20,560 --> 00:57:25,520
To be clear, there's a lot of people that are upset about that type of use for it because

586
00:57:26,560 --> 00:57:33,920
concept artists are a thing But what I'm what I'm getting at here is if it were used at the concept art stage

587
00:57:34,240 --> 00:57:38,880
And a real artist went and took it from concept art to what you actually see

588
00:57:39,280 --> 00:57:44,640
You probably would not have any way of noticing it. You wouldn't be able to tell from the pixels or whatever

589
00:57:45,200 --> 00:57:48,240
so odds are

590
00:57:48,240 --> 00:57:50,240
That it's already been used extensively

591
00:57:51,600 --> 00:57:55,200
Even if it's just just at the concept art stage

592
00:58:01,440 --> 00:58:04,720
Oh, man, uh, there's there's some interesting stuff in here

593
00:58:04,800 --> 00:58:07,600
David threw this into the notes this comes after

594
00:58:08,080 --> 00:58:12,720
disney's big push into artificial intelligence that got an ai powered darth vader in fortnight

595
00:58:12,960 --> 00:58:15,600
Who was immediately tricked into saying racial slurs?

596
00:58:16,160 --> 00:58:21,360
And also after they continued to lobby the government to prevent mickey mouse from entering the public domain with one hand

597
00:58:21,680 --> 00:58:25,520
While investing a billion dollars into open ai with the other. Yeah, thanks, david

598
00:58:26,320 --> 00:58:29,920
That really makes me feel better. Yeah, it's tough. They're just losing as far as I can tell

599
00:58:30,400 --> 00:58:35,360
Things like bluey are just completely taking their lunch. So they're lashing out and trying to accomplish things and

600
00:58:37,280 --> 00:58:43,440
This doesn't seem like it is one of them which to me just means you're just losing way harder now

601
00:58:43,440 --> 00:58:48,160
It's funny because like They don't even really use a lot of the

602
00:58:49,120 --> 00:58:54,400
IPs that were so no formative and foundational and iconic

603
00:58:55,280 --> 00:58:59,040
like do you think kids today would not

604
00:58:59,840 --> 00:59:05,920
I mean, I guess they did do a duck tails reboot I was just I was trying to think like would they not like donald duck and mickey and like

605
00:59:06,240 --> 00:59:12,080
It's funny because when you're when you're at disneyland Those characters are still so central to the brand identity

606
00:59:12,560 --> 00:59:17,120
But like when I was a kid, I feel like there was so much media with mickey mouse

607
00:59:17,600 --> 00:59:21,280
Like you like I remember I had one of those little like golden books that was like mickey mouse

608
00:59:21,360 --> 00:59:24,640
But it was the story of the prince and the popper like like, you know

609
00:59:24,800 --> 00:59:32,240
Disney's whole shtick where they they steal folklore and fairy tales and then they just like put their ip and characters on it like

610
00:59:33,120 --> 00:59:36,320
That seemed like a pretty good that seemed like a pretty good formula

611
00:59:36,320 --> 00:59:40,400
And then now they've gone like self-referential where they just like remake their own movie

612
00:59:40,640 --> 00:59:46,640
But in live action and it it it feels like at a certain point you're gonna run out of that. Maybe you could I don't know just

613
00:59:47,440 --> 00:59:51,280
Look, I don't want to be in charge of disney, but it seems like you could just I don't know do that

614
00:59:52,720 --> 00:59:56,800
They are releasing toy story 5 Oh god

615
01:00:01,440 --> 01:00:07,760
I I felt like toy story 3 tied the whole arc up into a nice little bow and I felt like it was done

616
01:00:08,320 --> 01:00:13,120
And toy story 4 just felt like one of those movies where and then this happens and then this happened

617
01:00:13,120 --> 01:00:16,960
And then this happened and then like this happened and wasn't that cool and then this happened

618
01:00:19,360 --> 01:00:23,600
We'll see how it goes Yeah

619
01:00:23,600 --> 01:00:28,080
I don't know the original toy story trilogy

620
01:00:28,080 --> 01:00:32,080
Is pretty legendary. I didn't I didn't hate toy story 4

621
01:00:34,560 --> 01:00:37,440
But it didn't stick with me like the other ones did you know

622
01:00:37,760 --> 01:00:41,120
Toy story 4 felt so unnecessary. Yeah

623
01:00:42,320 --> 01:00:47,760
Uh, yeah, there's there's again more notes to this. There's an there's another extra added

624
01:00:48,240 --> 01:00:55,280
um Do you think we will see a continued push for more practical effects in movies or is this another turning point towards the artificial?

625
01:00:55,520 --> 01:00:58,400
I don't know. I really liked the the plain steam

626
01:00:59,280 --> 01:01:02,880
Wow, why can't I talk to the the plain scene in um

627
01:01:04,080 --> 01:01:12,480
Airplane Uh, what is that movie called? It's from the guy who made inception. Um, but it's about like

628
01:01:14,480 --> 01:01:17,520
Moving forward or backward a tenet. Yeah, the plane scene in tenet was sick

629
01:01:17,600 --> 01:01:21,760
And it was filmed by actually smashing an actual big plane into an actual big building

630
01:01:22,320 --> 01:01:27,280
Um, which was like pretty sick. That sounds really expensive. It was so they did it once

631
01:01:27,840 --> 01:01:34,160
And then they took like eight takes, you know And then they used that scene in like a bunch of different ways

632
01:01:34,480 --> 01:01:41,120
Which was probably to justify the expense of it. Uh, but it was really cool how they did. I actually really like tenet, but um

633
01:01:44,480 --> 01:01:48,160
That movie didn't get the greatest reviews ever. No, um

634
01:01:49,920 --> 01:01:51,920
so

635
01:01:53,040 --> 01:01:56,640
I was watching some older like 80s 90s action flicks recently

636
01:01:57,040 --> 01:02:00,160
as part of my like watching older movies that I never saw and

637
01:02:01,760 --> 01:02:05,120
I think the thing that stood out to me the most was the car chase scenes

638
01:02:05,840 --> 01:02:09,920
It's like that semi truck Uh, like dirt bike

639
01:02:10,400 --> 01:02:14,800
chase scene in terminator two Hits so much harder

640
01:02:15,920 --> 01:02:22,320
When I know like obviously it's not as spectacular as some cgi up the butt thing from avengers or whatever

641
01:02:22,320 --> 01:02:26,000
You know, someone's on that bike But like

642
01:02:26,000 --> 01:02:28,560
They actually bashed a semi

643
01:02:30,240 --> 01:02:36,880
Up they actually like did those stunts with the bikes. They they really did all that stuff and it was

644
01:02:38,560 --> 01:02:45,120
Maybe From like as a kid watching it, um, I I would rather just have the cgi

645
01:02:45,680 --> 01:02:52,080
You know spaceship fight in new york city or whatever I think this is a very interesting point that you're making but as an adult

646
01:02:52,480 --> 01:02:55,440
Appreciating the artistry of it. Yeah, I find

647
01:02:56,800 --> 01:03:03,520
Just the speed of the dirt bike Uh as slow as it is far more engaging knowing that it's real. Yeah

648
01:03:04,880 --> 01:03:11,680
Very interesting. That's a pretty good point. I think Because yeah, I there's there's a lot of things that I'll try to fight for of like the real is more interesting

649
01:03:12,320 --> 01:03:14,320
But you're right when you're a kid. It's just like

650
01:03:15,520 --> 01:03:21,840
I don't know Goopy brain juice stuff. Yeah when you're when you're older. It's like how was this made?

651
01:03:22,240 --> 01:03:26,720
What's the investment in Risk, what's the investment in funds like?

652
01:03:27,200 --> 01:03:32,800
Yeah Wow, like they you can tell the care that went into the scene because they there was so much spent on it

653
01:03:32,800 --> 01:03:40,320
so you know that they must have Of really invested and fought for this to happen and and blah blah blah and that all impacts your appreciation of the art

654
01:03:40,400 --> 01:03:46,080
The partnership that they must have had to forge with general motors to get totally to get like

655
01:03:46,720 --> 01:03:50,560
19 cars That are going to be in like a giant pile up

656
01:03:50,960 --> 01:03:56,400
Knowing that they have to convince them that they need them at a good price and that it's okay for their brand to be

657
01:03:56,880 --> 01:04:01,760
You know bashed because like literally like bashed in because a lot of the time

658
01:04:02,320 --> 01:04:10,080
car companies In you know more modern times will not allow even a scratch on the car and you'll notice that it's just totally immersion breaking

659
01:04:10,080 --> 01:04:14,400
Once you're once you notice it once you're aware of it that like oh, okay

660
01:04:14,880 --> 01:04:18,480
So the hero's car is not allowed to have any damage or scratches

661
01:04:19,200 --> 01:04:21,840
Because it's the hero's car even though it

662
01:04:22,800 --> 01:04:26,560
Bashed into a bunch of stuff and drove through a burning building or whatever it is that it did

663
01:04:26,960 --> 01:04:32,400
Which to be clear is kind of silly because like the coolest Toyota truck

664
01:04:33,120 --> 01:04:36,800
like ever Is this one?

665
01:04:37,920 --> 01:04:40,240
Which the like the marshmallow truck

666
01:04:41,200 --> 01:04:44,800
The person who drove back and forth through the fires repeatedly to save people

667
01:04:44,960 --> 01:04:48,000
And their truck just like made it because it's a beast Toyota

668
01:04:48,160 --> 01:04:51,200
Nice, and then Toyota just gave them a new one like the scars can be cool

669
01:04:51,440 --> 01:04:56,800
If your car goes through some crazy stuff in the film like that that can be cool. It's not a bad thing

670
01:04:57,280 --> 01:05:03,920
Does plex have a like History of stuff you watched like I'd be I'd be curious to see it does

671
01:05:04,560 --> 01:05:09,040
Oh, yeah, hold on. Let me let me dig through it. I'll see if I can figure out what I was watching recently

672
01:05:09,120 --> 01:05:11,120
That was really good

673
01:05:13,120 --> 01:05:17,920
I can do an additional part of this topic if you want to oh hilarious nick ploof and I are friends and

674
01:05:18,480 --> 01:05:20,800
We can see what each other watch on plex. I should

675
01:05:21,520 --> 01:05:26,240
Probably let him know and I should probably disable mine because I don't think either of us probably intended that

676
01:05:27,200 --> 01:05:32,720
Hope you're enjoying that show you're watching ploof. I didn't mean to creep on you, but quality selection

677
01:05:33,360 --> 01:05:38,000
Um, they enabled it by default Yeah

678
01:05:38,320 --> 01:05:42,960
Wait, really? Yeah, it just kind of came out of nowhere. Yeah, we talked about it on wanshow at the time

679
01:05:43,040 --> 01:05:48,800
But I don't blame you for not paying attention. Is anyone coming for I mean I just don't really use it

680
01:05:48,800 --> 01:05:53,200
So I probably just forgot but is anyone really coming for plex like I've heard jellyfin talked about

681
01:05:53,200 --> 01:05:57,200
But every time I bring it up people kind of shrug and go like yeah, plex is still better

682
01:05:58,160 --> 01:06:03,280
Is it is it is jellyfin improving? Is it replacing at this point? I will have to give it another shot

683
01:06:03,280 --> 01:06:05,520
It's been a long time since I've looked at it

684
01:06:06,480 --> 01:06:10,240
I will people are saying mb. We had three different people in a row say mb

685
01:06:10,880 --> 01:06:14,320
And then now people are spamming jellyfin. Well, okay trying to remember it. I

686
01:06:14,960 --> 01:06:19,920
It might have been bad boys one Now question for everyone spamming jellyfin is amazing

687
01:06:21,120 --> 01:06:25,440
Is jellyfin open source and plex isn't and you like it because it's open source or is it just good?

688
01:06:26,480 --> 01:06:30,320
Which one is it? Why not both? Why not both? Be real? Why not both?

689
01:06:30,960 --> 01:06:36,480
Be real with me Because it being cool because it's open source is great

690
01:06:36,640 --> 01:06:42,800
But that has to be in addition to it also being great that that that is the the cherry and the cream

691
01:06:43,280 --> 01:06:52,240
You know what? I think it might have been last action hero I think that's the one that I that I was watching when I thought oh my god. All this stuff is real because I was shot in 1993

692
01:06:52,960 --> 01:06:58,320
so I someone posted you should you should watch a video that's like

693
01:06:59,280 --> 01:07:06,000
No CGI is just good CGI Not in 1993 in 1993 when they crashed a car into another car

694
01:07:06,480 --> 01:07:12,240
They got two cars and they basically did what every six-year-old boy does when he's got two cars in his hands

695
01:07:14,720 --> 01:07:17,360
But just filmmakers on a much bigger budget

696
01:07:19,520 --> 01:07:22,240
No, you can tell when it's a scale model guys. Come on

697
01:07:23,040 --> 01:07:26,960
Come on be real You can tell

698
01:07:27,040 --> 01:07:34,320
Sometimes it's pretty hard cars Cars have weight cars probably yeah the way that they bend the way now

699
01:07:34,640 --> 01:07:40,560
No, no, no, no, no, especially when it's a low speed collision and they like you can you know those 80s cars, right?

700
01:07:40,560 --> 01:07:46,240
Like you can see the shocks and the weight of them. There's no no no no no no no

701
01:07:46,400 --> 01:07:49,520
Yeah There's an additional part of this topic

702
01:07:49,600 --> 01:07:56,080
Do you think larian did the right thing by promising to no longer use generative ai even during conceptualization and I was like

703
01:07:56,960 --> 01:08:01,840
What? Uh, because that isn't what I heard last time at all and it sounds like

704
01:08:02,720 --> 01:08:05,840
Some amount of hours ago Oh

705
01:08:05,840 --> 01:08:10,400
um Let's see here 13 hours ago

706
01:08:12,640 --> 01:08:16,400
There was why is it swen instead of swen

707
01:08:18,160 --> 01:08:23,200
Are you supposed to pronounce it swen and he just wrote it that way and I don't know

708
01:08:23,920 --> 01:08:27,520
13 hours ago. He said this hi. Happy you enjoyed our game. So first off

709
01:08:27,680 --> 01:08:30,800
There is not going to be any j gen ai art in divinity

710
01:08:31,120 --> 01:08:34,560
I know there's been a lot of discussion around about us using ai tools as part of

711
01:08:34,880 --> 01:08:39,920
Concept art exploration. We already said this doesn't mean the actual concept art is generated by a ai

712
01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:44,400
But we understand it's created confusion So to ensure there is no room for doubt

713
01:08:44,560 --> 01:08:48,480
We've decided to refrain from using gen ai tools during concept art development

714
01:08:48,480 --> 01:08:52,640
They refrain is not a commitment to never Yeah

715
01:08:52,640 --> 01:08:58,640
That is that way there can be no discussion about the origin of the art having said that we continuously try to improve the

716
01:08:58,640 --> 01:09:03,520
Speed with which we try to get things out the more iterations we can do the better in general the gameplay is

717
01:09:03,760 --> 01:09:06,080
We think gen ai can help with this

718
01:09:06,800 --> 01:09:13,760
So we're trying things Out across departments our hope is that it can aid us to refine ideas faster

719
01:09:14,160 --> 01:09:17,520
Leading to more focused development cycle less waste and ultimately higher quality game

720
01:09:17,760 --> 01:09:20,480
The important bit to note is that we will not generate

721
01:09:20,880 --> 01:09:27,840
Creative assets that end up in a game without being 100 sure about the origins of the training data

722
01:09:28,480 --> 01:09:35,040
And the consent of those who created the data If we use a gen ai model to create in-game assets, then it'll be trained on data

723
01:09:35,040 --> 01:09:40,160
We own that is not the thing that was yeah, we need to make sure that when we put notes in the thing

724
01:09:40,160 --> 01:09:45,360
They are the right notes for the thing. I'm deleting that. Um, so basically what they're saying just like

725
01:09:46,240 --> 01:09:50,240
Refrain from taking out your cell phones and taking pictures of the performance

726
01:09:50,960 --> 01:09:55,200
um, that is not You know a hard never that is a like

727
01:09:56,080 --> 01:10:01,920
Please don't because they can't even guarantee that their own people internally will not use these tools

728
01:10:02,880 --> 01:10:07,040
They cannot prevent a larian employee from going home

729
01:10:07,760 --> 01:10:13,200
Getting their laptop. I'm sorry. I mean this laptop from our laptop partner razor. Thank you getting their laptop

730
01:10:14,160 --> 01:10:18,960
Generating some thing bringing it into work and using it as part of their. Oh, that's not Sven

731
01:10:20,240 --> 01:10:23,440
That's why it's not Sven. Cool. Um

732
01:10:24,560 --> 01:10:29,200
They can't prevent anyone from doing that and then the second part of this is

733
01:10:30,240 --> 01:10:33,680
Shoot now i'm distracted Sorry

734
01:10:33,680 --> 01:10:39,600
Um, that was the game director. It's a different person is that forever is a very long time. They would be

735
01:10:40,480 --> 01:10:43,280
Completely bonkers at this point to say

736
01:10:43,920 --> 01:10:49,360
No generative ai forever and they know that which is why that statement was basically

737
01:10:50,000 --> 01:10:52,400
We're going to keep doing exactly what we're doing

738
01:10:53,600 --> 01:10:58,480
Here's a statement we crafted that will hopefully let you guys settle down and touch some grass

739
01:10:59,360 --> 01:11:03,200
The the most interesting part to me was that the important bit to note

740
01:11:03,440 --> 01:11:08,000
Is that we will not generate creative assets that end up in a game without being 100 sure

741
01:11:08,240 --> 01:11:13,760
About the origins of the training data and the consent of those who created the data sure that part's very

742
01:11:14,400 --> 01:11:19,120
So basically we will use generative ai in the concept phases

743
01:11:19,840 --> 01:11:23,120
We will generate assets that will end up in the game

744
01:11:24,880 --> 01:11:27,200
But we will be sure of the origin of the training data

745
01:11:29,200 --> 01:11:37,280
That seems like maybe not for divinity. Yeah, maybe not for divinity, but it's but they're exploring that that last bit seems pretty clear

746
01:11:37,280 --> 01:11:42,880
Kind of the plan. Yeah, but this is to be clear, man. Like they're talking about it. But this is the plan for everyone

747
01:11:43,040 --> 01:11:45,040
It's been fascinating to me how

748
01:11:46,160 --> 01:11:49,600
Like larion and the the people behind

749
01:11:50,240 --> 01:11:54,640
claire obscure I don't remember their studio name

750
01:11:55,200 --> 01:12:04,640
Are gaining so much flak for this And then embark the people who made our creators are like super open about it and have been forever

751
01:12:05,360 --> 01:12:09,600
And they're getting relatively little flak for it. There's been a couple big hits

752
01:12:09,680 --> 01:12:13,680
But but not that much and then you see battlefield out there

753
01:12:15,280 --> 01:12:19,760
So obviously having used it to the point where I've seen like promotional images that

754
01:12:20,560 --> 01:12:27,680
have like Very telltale signs of ai influence and everybody's just like whatever. I don't know. It's ea. They were going to do it

755
01:12:27,680 --> 01:12:29,840
Anyways, we'll just leave him alone. It's like oh come on

756
01:12:31,120 --> 01:12:35,920
Come on Anyways, um

757
01:12:36,720 --> 01:12:44,720
All right, moving on Speaking of cool things. I'm going to do a random like a side thing. Uh Dan. Hold on. Oh is Dan going to have us do anything else

758
01:12:45,040 --> 01:12:48,800
Yeah, probably do the merch message because your thing there says topic two and we're on topic

759
01:12:49,040 --> 01:12:53,040
Literally about to grab it. Wow. Nice. Wow. Nice quality. Wow

760
01:12:53,760 --> 01:12:55,760
Oh

761
01:13:02,800 --> 01:13:09,120
Right Hey Oh shoot. I've got too warm and I finally took it off. Well, uh, okay go to luke's screen

762

767
01:13:46,720 --> 01:13:56,080
It's I think it's just on one sleeve on one sleeve It's subtle intentional and inspired by the idea of wearing your heart on your sleeve, but also, you know video game health bars

768
01:13:56,480 --> 01:14:04,640
Yeah, gotta Gotta be gamers and the pixel heart hoodie keeps things subtle with a red on red raised 3d graphic

769
01:14:04,960 --> 01:14:10,320
So you get texture without it being too loud. There's also a small silicone patch

770
01:14:11,200 --> 01:14:14,080
With three pixel hearts near the pocket, which is a tiny detail

771
01:14:14,320 --> 01:14:19,040
But helps to elevate the hoodie and keep it adorable and did we bring people in for couple shoots seems like it

772
01:14:19,520 --> 01:14:26,640
That's so cool. Hey, look at that. I'm in shape I don't know if we brought them in this isn't here. Oh really? Oh, okay. Yeah, cool

780
01:15:06,400 --> 01:15:14,000
We don't want you to throw money at your screen guys We'd much rather that you throw money at lttstore.com and get some quality merchandise in addition to

781
01:15:14,480 --> 01:15:19,280
You know sending a message to Dan who will definitely read it. He will though

782
01:15:20,080 --> 01:15:23,840
All you got to do is go to lttstore.com and add something to your cart

783
01:15:24,160 --> 01:15:30,960
You'll see the little interface here for merch messages You type a little merch message decide if you want to be anonymous or show your first and last name

784
01:15:31,280 --> 01:15:35,040
And you pick a color scheme and you go ahead and place your order it goes producer Dan

785
01:15:35,440 --> 01:15:38,800
Hey, we got a second wave today bonus who always wearing the new eggplant

786
01:15:39,680 --> 01:15:44,800
Yeah, nice looking good a little flash of blue a little a little flash of italian in the summer

787
01:15:47,920 --> 01:15:49,920
You're missing the gold chain though Dan

788
01:15:51,520 --> 01:15:57,120
And also we would need more buttons for you to go full full of Mediterranean right down to the belly button

789
01:15:59,120 --> 01:16:02,880
Anyway, it'll go to producer Dan who will reply to it or pop it up here

790
01:16:02,880 --> 01:16:06,000
If you just have a shout out for someone or who will curate it

791
01:16:06,400 --> 01:16:10,960
And read it to me and luke to respond to Dan. Do you want to show us a couple curated merch messages?

792
01:16:11,120 --> 01:16:17,040
Yeah, sure. Why don't I have one here about the pixel heart? Hey wan.ai question for luke

793
01:16:17,920 --> 01:16:21,840
Is the pixel heart drop a celebration for your new 50 50 loving relationship?

794
01:16:22,480 --> 01:16:24,640
Or just a valentine's approaching

795
01:16:25,680 --> 01:16:32,480
What is this a joke? I don't get it's for having owning half of wan. You're now tied together

796
01:16:33,360 --> 01:16:36,000
Yeah, it's funny business arrangements are actually like

797
01:16:36,960 --> 01:16:39,680
Way way more binding than like marriage

798
01:16:40,800 --> 01:16:44,480
Turns out fun time. Yeah, like I remember Yvonne and I joking about it

799
01:16:44,480 --> 01:16:47,680
Like when we bought a house together. Yeah, we were like oh this is

800
01:16:48,400 --> 01:16:52,320
We actually we bought a house together before we got married and we were like oh well, I mean like

801
01:16:54,160 --> 01:16:58,160
This is way more complicated and then when we started the business it was just like oh, okay

802
01:16:58,400 --> 01:17:02,560
So between owning a house together having kids together and the business we're like

803
01:17:03,760 --> 01:17:09,120
Full stuck which is good because I'd like her to not leave me. Okay carry on

804
01:17:10,320 --> 01:17:12,320
Uh, I'm uh, I mean

805
01:17:13,360 --> 01:17:20,560
Yes, that is why we did it The the creative people at creator warehouse were like, you know what valentine's day ultimately unimportant

806
01:17:20,720 --> 01:17:23,040
What really matters is the the link

807
01:17:24,080 --> 01:17:29,920
Between Linus and luke Um, and this shirt just symbolizes that and nothing else

808
01:17:30,880 --> 01:17:35,840
Sure two parter totally not that luke found out about this today

809
01:17:39,840 --> 01:17:42,720
Which is which is that's not what happened that's reality

810
01:17:42,960 --> 01:17:51,040
I noticed it on my chair and was like, huh And then put it on and then noticed that and was like, oh neat and then loaded up the store to be like, what's going on?

811
01:17:51,760 --> 01:17:59,200
We only talked about the 5050 like last week. So we designed a shift and prepared a shirt in less than one week

812
01:17:59,600 --> 01:18:08,560
Amazing. We're so good four days. I'm very impressed by that team. We're wicked smart. Absolutely incredible. Uh, also what class or spec did you play in? Wow

813
01:18:09,440 --> 01:18:14,720
Oh warrior Classic based all the all the classes all the specs. Sorry

814
01:18:15,200 --> 01:18:19,600
Uh, the best spec warrior ever is very pro in classic. Wow because wearing shields

815
01:18:20,080 --> 01:18:23,040
While tanking is boring and not wearing shields while tanking is fun

816
01:18:23,600 --> 01:18:29,280
There's another one here for luke as well also about wow thoughts on add on removals in wow midnight

817
01:18:29,680 --> 01:18:34,480
Oh, I don't care. I don't play retail gross

818
01:18:45,040 --> 01:18:51,520
I don't know. I think they're gonna have a hard time changing their raid design because for many many many years raid design was done

819
01:18:52,240 --> 01:18:57,200
With the the theory that people would be having add-ons installed and the add-ons basically like

820
01:18:57,680 --> 01:19:02,080
Tell you what to do all the time. There will literally be like audible cues of like move

821
01:19:02,880 --> 01:19:09,840
Or whatever. Yeah, like the add-ons are really intense. It's funny because like I actually uh, I've I've really been

822
01:19:11,040 --> 01:19:13,920
Frustrated sometimes but also enjoying how not

823
01:19:14,640 --> 01:19:21,840
Handholdy clear obscure is on the one hand. It's modern gaming way too easy. Like when you die in a fight you just

824
01:19:22,560 --> 01:19:27,200
fry it again Like there's it's like a four second penalty and you just

825
01:19:28,160 --> 01:19:32,960
Go for it again. It auto saves like all the time

826
01:19:33,760 --> 01:19:38,160
But on the other hand Like sometimes they'll get annoyed because I can't figure out where to go

827
01:19:38,880 --> 01:19:43,200
Like there's no map in dungeons. So the difficulty is high, but the punishment is low, I guess

828
01:19:43,440 --> 01:19:48,160
Yeah, yeah, yeah, so you like you really have to you really have to to try

829
01:19:49,120 --> 01:19:53,760
And so so sometimes I've been kind of annoyed, but I've also really appreciated

830
01:19:54,320 --> 01:20:01,040
And I found like the combat for instance way more engaging when the timing is really hard to get

831
01:20:01,600 --> 01:20:06,160
Um, and like they have these they have these side challenges where you have to like parkour

832
01:20:06,800 --> 01:20:09,760
And I don't know if you've ever parkourd in a like

833
01:20:10,720 --> 01:20:15,280
Like third person view Uh 3d game where

834
01:20:16,000 --> 01:20:19,840
I think Assassin's Creed counts because it just like does it for you. Frankly, it's an rpg

835
01:20:20,480 --> 01:20:25,920
And is not Assassin's Creed. Like I kind of had flashbacks to psychonauts

836
01:20:26,480 --> 01:20:32,000
um Huh Like some of them are really really frustrating

837
01:20:32,960 --> 01:20:36,560
But like getting to the top of like the tower one. I'm like, yeah

838
01:20:36,640 --> 01:20:42,160
And I don't know. I felt like accomplishment in playing a game that I haven't felt in a while

839
01:20:43,520 --> 01:20:50,640
That's cool. So I'm into that That sounds like the opposite thing and like they have okay. They have kind of they have a little bit of white paint

840
01:20:51,280 --> 01:20:53,680
Oh, um, like with the climbing things

841
01:20:54,400 --> 01:21:00,800
But like the climbing things are gold and sometimes there'll be like strains of gold in the rock and they're actually kind of hard to spot sometimes

842
01:21:01,920 --> 01:21:06,080
Yeah, I know I like it. I like there's there's a there's a lot going on in like

843
01:21:07,120 --> 01:21:11,600
I don't know. I haven't played them But there's a lot going on in like modern wow raids

844
01:21:12,240 --> 01:21:15,600
And before the add-on removal, I guess. I don't know if it's already happened or not

845
01:21:18,400 --> 01:21:23,120
And and but but yeah, like there will be this mechanic where like say there's there's a boss

846
01:21:23,520 --> 01:21:26,800
And he's hitting your tank right fairly obvious mmo type stuff

847
01:21:27,440 --> 01:21:31,920
But he'll put a debuff on your tank and once the debuff gets to a certain amount of stacks

848
01:21:32,080 --> 01:21:36,320
Yeah, you need to swap which tank is Currently tanking the boss

849
01:21:36,320 --> 01:21:41,120
Because the the main the one tank will get to too many stacks and you need to swap and that guy gathers stacks and this guy's stacks

850
01:21:41,120 --> 01:21:45,920
Fall off and you swap back and forth right pretty normal very average thing to be on a boss very average

851
01:21:45,920 --> 01:21:48,640
There will be add-ons that when your stack count

852
01:21:49,200 --> 01:21:54,000
When the stack count of the of the other guy average size too high actually

853
01:21:55,040 --> 01:21:58,320
Six inch tank average size tank. That's way more like eight inches, but okay

854
01:21:58,800 --> 01:22:06,080
Oh When it's when it's your turn to taunt and like take the boss over because the other guy has too many stacks

855
01:22:06,320 --> 01:22:09,840
It'll just tell you what the add-on will be like taunt

856
01:22:11,280 --> 01:22:14,960
So like if you've played a bunch, you'll just reflexively like hear that and just press the button

857
01:22:15,040 --> 01:22:22,240
You don't even like there's no thinking And then but but like theoretically there is a lot of other stuff happening in the encounter

858
01:22:22,400 --> 01:22:25,760
So it's not like you aren't paying attention. You're still playing and it can still be really hard

859
01:22:26,000 --> 01:22:28,800
But like the add-ons are managing things for you

860
01:22:29,520 --> 01:22:32,720
While you're playing around the other mechanics and like they're they'll

861
01:22:33,520 --> 01:22:37,440
Certain fights will still be very difficult despite all that but these fights have been built

862
01:22:38,640 --> 01:22:42,480
with Knowing that these add-ons exist and that people will make them. Oh

863
01:22:43,680 --> 01:22:49,520
So they're harder They're in a lot of ways way harder where if you didn't have the add-ons, it would be like incredibly difficult

864
01:22:49,600 --> 01:22:53,840
Oh, okay. No one's doing so is that so now if they're going to take the add-ons out

865
01:22:54,000 --> 01:22:59,040
Which is in a lot of ways it probably makes sense It's kind of weird that the community has to constantly build things for your game

866
01:22:59,280 --> 01:23:03,840
Right, right, right, right. So by taking the add-ons out like okay cool that kind of makes sense in some ways

867
01:23:04,160 --> 01:23:10,800
But then your design philosophy for your game for so many years has had these things in mind

868
01:23:11,520 --> 01:23:15,520
And I suspect there's going to be growing pains not that I'll experience any of them because

869
01:23:17,120 --> 01:23:23,120
Retail about sucks, but Yeah, oh no adam plays. Oh, no. Does he hate my opinions? We'll see

870
01:23:23,680 --> 01:23:28,720
Importantly, they aren't banning add-ons. They're just reducing their scope so they can't play the game for you like lucas describing

871
01:23:28,800 --> 01:23:34,080
Ah, okay, interesting. Well, that that sounds like it helps a little bit then sure. That's cool

872
01:23:34,800 --> 01:23:38,640
Shout out adam customer care supervisor for our creator warehouse. Yeah

873
01:23:40,160 --> 01:23:48,400
All right, Dan, what are we doing? How about some more topics we can do more topics got a bunch to get through let's talk about the samsung smart tv lawsuit

874
01:23:50,080 --> 01:23:54,160
samsung sony lg high sense and

875
01:23:54,480 --> 01:24:00,480
Tcl are all being accused of deploying surveillance technology without user consent

876
01:24:01,200 --> 01:24:05,920
acr automated content recognition takes screenshots and

877
01:24:06,320 --> 01:24:11,760
Provides other information about what you're watching on your tv to the tv manufacturers

878
01:24:12,400 --> 01:24:18,640
Headquarters allegedly you are opted in to acr when you consent during the tv setup process

879
01:24:19,280 --> 01:24:23,520
To opt out at least on a samsung display. You must find the right

880
01:24:24,240 --> 01:24:26,800
opt-outs across four or more

881
01:24:27,520 --> 01:24:34,240
separate menus ours technica figures it's roughly 15 clicks to complete after analyzing the lawsuit

882
01:24:35,200 --> 01:24:42,720
Texas attorney general ken paxton has called acr an uninvited invisible digital invader. I agree

883
01:24:43,520 --> 01:24:48,640
Texas has apparently secured a temporary restraining order against samsung not the rest of them

884
01:24:48,720 --> 01:24:55,280
But samsung specifically which prevents them from continuing to sell transfer collect or share acr data

885
01:24:55,600 --> 01:24:58,720
relating to texas consumers

886
01:24:58,720 --> 01:25:05,200
The district court found sufficient cause to believe that samsung's actions violated the deceptive trades practices act

887
01:25:06,160 --> 01:25:15,840
A similar restraining order was requested for lg But a judge denied the state's request and then sony tcl and high sense are still involved in this legal battle alongside samsung

888
01:25:16,480 --> 01:25:19,280
The lawsuits argue that companies deliberately use

889
01:25:19,840 --> 01:25:25,920
Use misleading labeling and non-intuitive terminology when explaining acr technology to consumers

890
01:25:26,240 --> 01:25:36,560
According to source points legal analysis Texas prosecutors argue that each manufacturer also hides or obfuscates what acr can record from its customers

891
01:25:37,360 --> 01:25:43,520
And the answer is Basically anything that is connected over htmi as well as cable boxes

892
01:25:44,160 --> 01:25:49,520
If it's on your screen, it can be recorded. This could even include confidential or sensitive information

893
01:25:49,840 --> 01:25:53,840
if you were to hook up a laptop or a computer to your tv and

894
01:25:54,560 --> 01:26:00,080
View said info There are no visual cues or warnings that content is being recorded

895
01:26:00,800 --> 01:26:05,360
So this goes way beyond the data that they might need for targeted advertising

896
01:26:06,240 --> 01:26:09,680
This is this is wild. Texas is seeking 10 000

897
01:26:10,960 --> 01:26:15,760
To 250 000 dollars per violation

898
01:26:15,920 --> 01:26:19,440
With higher penalties when persons aged 65 or older were affected

899
01:26:20,080 --> 01:26:24,160
That lastly is a little confusing to me. No, I totally get it. I think really why not kids?

900
01:26:26,160 --> 01:26:34,960
That would also maybe be fair I My thing was maybe susceptible more susceptible to scams and if they can target scams more easily because of certain data like that

901
01:26:36,320 --> 01:26:39,440
Because the the people getting wrecked by online scams. It's like

902
01:26:41,040 --> 01:26:47,600
Wildly vast majority really old people. Hmm. Is that is that true? Yeah. Oh, okay. Yeah

903
01:26:52,000 --> 01:26:55,680
So is that who Bethesda was selling horse armor to?

904
01:26:58,000 --> 01:27:01,280
The elder scrolls based on your own laws is all fit for old people

905
01:27:02,400 --> 01:27:05,760
No No

906
01:27:05,760 --> 01:27:07,760
Based on your own logic. That's not a scam

907
01:27:08,800 --> 01:27:14,640
I know it's not a scam It's not a scam. I just thought it was funny because I thought of elder scrolls. It was pretty funny

908
01:27:14,720 --> 01:27:19,040
Um, I was just I was just trying to find a way to I thought you were just calling me old to be honest

909
01:27:19,040 --> 01:27:22,720
I didn't even put the elder scrolls. You're kind of an old soul though a little bit

910
01:27:22,960 --> 01:27:27,760
Yeah, like there's things about you that are like young dude, but there's also things about you that are very like

911
01:27:28,400 --> 01:27:35,040
I'm I'm like middle-aged and like I'm more interested in in the exploring the world and and having

912
01:27:36,000 --> 01:27:40,800
Sharing experiences, you know, like you're just you're kind of old. I started the exploring the world thing

913
01:27:41,920 --> 01:27:47,840
Right away. Yeah, I know I know dude to be clear. Oh, I see what you mean. Yeah, I know. Okay. No, my bad

914
01:27:47,920 --> 01:27:52,080
Like you were you were just boring like kind of a middle-aged man. Yeah, and to be clear

915
01:27:52,160 --> 01:27:55,600
I I I totally get it like I just I was like, okay

916
01:27:56,160 --> 01:28:04,560
Well, I have flunked out of school I am going to join the workforce and immediately settle down and have a family as quickly as humanly possible

917
01:28:05,280 --> 01:28:13,280
um You seem like a fantastic wife. Let's be let's be husband and wife and have children

918
01:28:13,920 --> 01:28:21,600
Like I don't know I was talking to someone recently about like How can you know if you want to have kids or not and I was like, I don't know simple to do and they were

919
01:28:22,240 --> 01:28:25,200
Some people do sorry. I'm still a little bit sick. I'm having talking problems

920
01:28:25,440 --> 01:28:30,880
um And they were like no like nobody does it just sort of happens and I was like no Linus did for sure

921
01:28:31,280 --> 01:28:35,120
Like no if they wanted to have kids. Yeah. Oh, yeah. I was like no Linus knew

922
01:28:36,160 --> 01:28:39,440
100 yeah, there's no question. They're like how whatever. I was like, I don't know

923
01:28:39,520 --> 01:28:41,520
But he knew the whole time like there was no

924
01:28:42,640 --> 01:28:49,120
There was no gaps This was this was a hundred percent. No, that's that was that was the path

925
01:28:49,840 --> 01:28:54,480
The get education. Okay, we didn't manage that get job get wife get kids

926
01:28:55,120 --> 01:28:58,880
And then and have a family path accomplished. Yeah, there was no yeah

927
01:28:59,520 --> 01:29:07,360
There wasn't wavering. Yeah, no I don't know I I I was talking to someone about this the other day, but I had kind of a unique upbringing because

928
01:29:08,080 --> 01:29:12,320
um, you know people will ask like were you an only child or did you have a lot of siblings and I'll be like

929
01:29:13,280 --> 01:29:20,880
yes Because I was functionally an only child for most of the time up until I was 11

930
01:29:21,360 --> 01:29:26,880
Uh, so that was every other weekend. I was with my dad and most of the week

931
01:29:27,280 --> 01:29:32,640
And then every other other weekend. I was with my mom and also Wednesdays after school

932
01:29:33,200 --> 01:29:39,280
And so I was an only child at my dad's house, but then at my mom's house. I was one of

933
01:29:40,960 --> 01:29:46,960
five so After I was 11 I lived with my mom. So I had like

934
01:29:47,920 --> 01:29:54,880
Only child childhood and then also like some childhood and my entire adolescence as as one of

935
01:29:55,600 --> 01:30:02,640
Many including because I was the second oldest and there was a big age gap between number four and number five of my of my

936
01:30:03,360 --> 01:30:09,440
Genetic half-siblings, but we don't really like see it that way, but it's a technical detail that maybe people care about get over it

937
01:30:10,000 --> 01:30:16,640
Um, so there was a pretty big big age gap between number four and number five of us. So I like

938
01:30:17,600 --> 01:30:21,280
knew that I love little kids

939
01:30:21,280 --> 01:30:29,200
And I like knew how to change diapers and I like like I actually participated very actively in caring for a baby

940
01:30:29,760 --> 01:30:32,160
um, and it's something that I I feel like a lot of

941
01:30:32,880 --> 01:30:36,400
Parents in my cohort seriously missed out on

942
01:30:37,360 --> 01:30:45,200
Because it used to be that people had Enormous families. Yeah, like tons and tons of kids to the point where by the time

943
01:30:45,680 --> 01:30:50,000
Number five number six number seven number eight number nine are rolling in

944
01:30:50,880 --> 01:30:59,920
The eldests The eldest ones are very actively participating in in the care of and the upbringing of of these kids because otherwise

945
01:31:00,560 --> 01:31:05,360
It's a completely non viable situation and I uh

946
01:31:07,200 --> 01:31:12,240
I don't know. I I I felt like I just had more certainty and more confidence

947
01:31:12,720 --> 01:31:19,120
Going into parenthood having had that experience sure that I feel like a lot of people it like including Yvonne

948
01:31:19,120 --> 01:31:23,040
I laid that out too. Yvonne was one of two and they were two years apart

949
01:31:23,760 --> 01:31:29,600
she did not help In any way to raise a child before she was just

950
01:31:31,200 --> 01:31:37,280
Here you go handed one Yeah, like that that was brought up as well like oh, how could he have known

951
01:31:38,000 --> 01:31:42,000
He like how could you know before you've done it? You've never had kids before and I was like well

952
01:31:43,520 --> 01:31:48,640
He kind of sort of did because he kind of sort of took care of them. I got to see a lot of it

953
01:31:48,800 --> 01:31:52,720
Yeah, so like I don't know that kind of counts in my opinion like I

954
01:31:53,920 --> 01:31:57,200
remember being in the hospital waiting for

955
01:31:58,480 --> 01:32:03,760
My baby brother to come out Like I like I can remember that whereas

956
01:32:04,480 --> 01:32:10,800
Yvonne doesn't remember that for for her baby sister like it just well she was you just can't she was two. Yeah. Yeah, exactly

957
01:32:12,000 --> 01:32:19,360
Any memory that you have from when you were like two is is probably heavily corrupted by that whole remembering a memory problem

958
01:32:19,840 --> 01:32:26,400
Yeah, yeah 100 um, I don't I do not remember how we got into this topic of conversation. No idea

959
01:32:27,040 --> 01:32:32,400
All right, cool Like at all we should probably get through some sponsor spots

960
01:32:33,120 --> 01:32:38,320
Sure. All right. Oh wait. No, we only have we only have one. Okay. If you want to do that now

961
01:32:38,320 --> 01:32:42,480
Yeah, let's maybe do the full plane announcement absolute mad lads. They did the whole thing

962
01:32:43,200 --> 01:32:47,520
No, we'll do the sponsor spot The show is brought to you by delta hub

963
01:32:48,640 --> 01:32:52,240
Long hours sitting at your computer desk can often result in a sore wrist

964
01:32:53,120 --> 01:32:55,760
Especially when you engage in certain activities

965
01:32:56,240 --> 01:33:01,200
However, our sponsor delta hub has set out to help relieve some of those pains

966
01:33:01,760 --> 01:33:06,400
They have recently dropped their carpio g 2.0 LTT edition

967
01:33:07,040 --> 01:33:11,920
They took the core design of their 2.0, but made one strategic change

968
01:33:12,480 --> 01:33:21,200
a magnetic wrist strap The strap's not there to restrict your movement though. It's there to help you move more freely without losing your support

969
01:33:21,600 --> 01:33:24,880
So when you switch between keyboard mouse trackpad, you won't be asking

970
01:33:25,440 --> 01:33:35,040
Where the heck did my wrist rest go? And just like their previous models the g 2.0 slides smoothly across your desk or desk pad without snagging or getting caught

971
01:33:35,760 --> 01:33:42,880
And the pads to the wrist rests are perforated to help them breathe meaning less sweat build up after a long day of work

972
01:33:43,120 --> 01:33:49,520
Or gaming so go and grab your carpio g 2.0 today by either scanning the qr code

973
01:33:50,480 --> 01:33:53,520
Dan On screen qr code

974
01:33:53,600 --> 01:34:01,120
Or heading to the link in the video description and make sure that you use code wan 15 to save 15 percent on your order

975
01:34:01,760 --> 01:34:07,760
Now so we have a special segment. Thanks to the delta hub WAN Show sponsor takeover

976
01:34:08,240 --> 01:34:14,960
They they apparently bought all the WAN Show sponsor spots today. So here's that qr code. We're going to be playing a brief

977
01:34:15,600 --> 01:34:20,240
game of legally distinct Wanley feud

978
01:34:20,960 --> 01:34:26,480
Okay, the rules are simple Earlier this week there was a survey sent out to our team

979
01:34:27,040 --> 01:34:34,000
While we were away at ces. Oh fun. Okay five questions were asked and the top three answers for each question

980
01:34:34,320 --> 01:34:40,240
Have been recorded for us to try to guess To keep things moving we will be given two guesses each per round

981
01:34:40,720 --> 01:34:44,880
The answers are weighted and there will be up to 300 points up for grabs

982
01:34:45,280 --> 01:34:49,120
Whoever has the least number of points at the start of each round will get to guess first

983
01:34:49,600 --> 01:34:54,880
And somewhere off screen a coin was flipped and Linus will be guessing first for the first prompt. Oh, I see

984
01:34:55,520 --> 01:34:59,120
This is very It's only mildly out of it, but I like their box

985
01:34:59,360 --> 01:35:03,520
You open it and it the info card comes out of the my luke cam button doesn't work

986
01:35:05,600 --> 01:35:09,520
Oh, because I have it in takeover mode. Okay. Uh, oh one sec. Uh, oh

987
01:35:09,600 --> 01:35:15,280
That's cute I don't think it's cool. Good chat. Neat. All right, Dan hit me

988
01:35:16,080 --> 01:35:22,560
One second Sure thing. So prompt number one name a piece of tech you couldn't live without

989
01:35:23,760 --> 01:35:28,320
Linus, you're up first phone

990
01:35:28,320 --> 01:35:32,320
Wait, this is this is Luke, what is your guess?

991
01:35:33,360 --> 01:35:41,680
What is my guess or do I have to say that it's on the board or not? I have no idea. I've never watched wanley feud before. Sorry. What do we talk? What is my guess?

992
01:35:41,760 --> 01:35:46,320
What am I guessing name a piece of tech you couldn't live without I'm guessing who you're guessing what everyone said

993
01:35:47,200 --> 01:35:52,400
Survey phone. Well, you can't say the same thing. No, you have to get something else. Got it. It's obviously phone

994
01:35:52,880 --> 01:35:56,720
Well, there's lots of responses. It could be something else. Got him. Got him. Got him. Got him

995
01:35:58,240 --> 01:36:02,880
Do we do the survey says first Probably should have done water filtration

996
01:36:03,680 --> 01:36:05,680
The hell is wrong with you

997
01:36:07,120 --> 01:36:09,120
He's just throwing you can't throw no

998
01:36:12,320 --> 01:36:16,000
That's so lame. You can't just look at chat. I didn't get that from chat. All right

999
01:36:19,280 --> 01:36:23,520
Okay, you said you got for either of us you said like you got two guesses

1000
01:36:24,800 --> 01:36:28,640
We get to what I don't understand this game at all. What is what is happening?

1001
01:36:30,240 --> 01:36:33,440
It's family feud. You just have to guess what most people said

1002
01:36:34,400 --> 01:36:39,600
And and the people who I can't say the obvious for sure answer that you already because I got to go first

1003
01:36:39,680 --> 01:36:44,320
But but you'll get to go first if you're behind and there's like five rounds. Okay, so I'll go first next time

1004
01:36:44,720 --> 01:36:46,720
probably

1005
01:36:48,320 --> 01:36:54,320
I think I think that's it camera sure Camera camera. Okay, and we have to say two each

1006
01:36:55,040 --> 01:36:57,840
Apparently that's what it says here. Okay. I'm gonna go with

1007
01:36:59,760 --> 01:37:05,040
PC Or like computer computer computer computer. Okay. Yeah

1008
01:37:09,760 --> 01:37:12,800
Some someone will have said 3d printer

1009
01:37:13,600 --> 01:37:18,560
Oh, oh, I like at least someone I like it. Okay. All right. Give us the result for the first one

1010
01:37:19,120 --> 01:37:21,680
All right response number three

1011
01:37:22,480 --> 01:37:27,040
Was computer or laptop? So that's 10 points to Linus

1012
01:37:27,040 --> 01:37:30,160
Response number two was headphones or earbuds

1013
01:37:30,880 --> 01:37:33,520
Oh, wow, you got that and response number one

1014
01:37:34,960 --> 01:37:36,960
Phone

1015
01:37:38,960 --> 01:37:44,240
So that's Linus leading with 45 points. Luke. Nobody said water filtration

1016
01:37:45,920 --> 01:37:49,840
So Luke you get first they're all lying. Didn't he have two at two other guesses?

1017
01:37:49,840 --> 01:37:55,280
So I thought we didn't count that stupid water filtration one. It was good though. You all know he said it too earnestly

1018
01:37:55,600 --> 01:38:00,320
He was way too earnest. You would all have very serious issues to drink it from the floor

1019
01:38:01,200 --> 01:38:09,680
Prompt at number two Name a sign that you've been sitting at your computer for too long. Luke. You're up first. Numb legs

1020
01:38:10,400 --> 01:38:14,800
Numb legs dry eyes dry eyes. Yeah, I don't get this problem

1021
01:38:15,600 --> 01:38:18,800
Soar someone asked you recently if I wanted eyedrops and I was like for what?

1022
01:38:19,840 --> 01:38:23,600
and Luke you have another one blink more

1023
01:38:24,080 --> 01:38:26,080
Luke

1024
01:38:28,640 --> 01:38:32,960
Look guess number two sun comes up sun comes up tired

1025
01:38:34,240 --> 01:38:40,400
Tired all right So sun comes up. You are so your answers are so revealing of yourself

1026
01:38:40,880 --> 01:38:44,960
You're supposed to guess for the other people. This is we surveyed LMG

1027
01:38:46,000 --> 01:38:50,880
Whatever Number three survey says sore eyes

1028
01:38:51,760 --> 01:38:54,240
That's 15 points to the line

1029
01:38:55,120 --> 01:39:03,280
response number two is Legs are butt going numb. Yeah 20 points to luke and response number one was back or neck pain

1030
01:39:03,760 --> 01:39:08,080
Oh, okay, definitely posture issue. What is wrong with my co-workers?

1031
01:39:08,720 --> 01:39:14,800
Uh problem number three name your favorite LTT Store item luke. You're up first. Okay luke goes first. Nice

1033
01:39:19,520 --> 01:39:23,600
Um Internal people

1034
01:39:23,760 --> 01:39:28,400
Oh That's tougher

1035
01:39:31,040 --> 01:39:35,360
Kind of remember all the bloody stuff we make we make so much. I'm gonna say scribe driver

1036
01:39:35,840 --> 01:39:38,960
Scribe driver for Linus. You'll get some on that. I feel like backpack

1037
01:39:39,760 --> 01:39:44,720
Backpack everyone got one at the christmas party. So it has probably the most internal exposure

1038
01:39:44,800 --> 01:39:49,760
That's actually really smart gamesmanship And guess number the last one Linus

1039
01:39:51,280 --> 01:39:55,600
I'm gonna go with water bottle. That's got some for sure. It's got to it has to you

1040
01:39:56,640 --> 01:39:59,840
Guess number three is a cargo pants

1041
01:40:00,720 --> 01:40:05,040
Shoot That makes sense. The cargo pants are sick. That makes sense. Number two

1042
01:40:06,000 --> 01:40:13,040
Backpack nice 15 points to luke. I'm getting wracked. Number one. Do you know number one? It's screwdriver. Yeah

1043
01:40:13,600 --> 01:40:20,560
Let's go. Hold on. I gotta do some tabulation here coming out of nowhere. Oh, I should have gone backpack. You're right

1044
01:40:21,120 --> 01:40:24,800
Fudge when I went. Oh, it was like backpack might be one

1045
01:40:24,960 --> 01:40:28,560
I'm still happy with screwdriver, but I was like if he gets backpack, then he's getting number two

1046
01:40:28,720 --> 01:40:32,720
Luke pulls ahead. Let's go prompt number four Linus. You're up first here

1047
01:40:33,840 --> 01:40:39,680
Name I got this name something you would use a magnet for Linus. You're up first

1048
01:40:44,000 --> 01:40:46,000
You

1049
01:40:47,040 --> 01:40:49,040
Would use a magnet for

1050
01:40:50,720 --> 01:40:55,200
Ah Sticking to my fridge

1051
01:40:55,760 --> 01:41:00,240
Okay, I don't know that's pretty good picking up screws picking up screws

1052
01:41:01,440 --> 01:41:03,440
Linus guess number two

1053
01:41:04,640 --> 01:41:09,760
Mounting a tool And luke final guess cable management

1054
01:41:10,320 --> 01:41:14,000
Oh crap, that's a good one for cable management guess number three

1055
01:41:14,560 --> 01:41:22,000
Picking something up like drop screws almost verbatim. Nice. Okay. That's cheating. Okay, uh guess number two

1056
01:41:22,240 --> 01:41:24,240
Sticking something to a fridge

1057
01:41:26,320 --> 01:41:28,880
And guess number one is cable management

1058
01:41:30,240 --> 01:41:32,960
Ah such a good one. That's a good one. That's a good one

1059
01:41:33,920 --> 01:41:36,400
I have no excuse for that one. That's so dumb. Yeah

1060
01:41:37,360 --> 01:41:44,320
Okay, more LTT Store answers. I feel like they almost answered like they almost reverse family feuded us here

1061
01:41:44,960 --> 01:41:47,440
Like trying to give responses that we would

1062
01:41:48,640 --> 01:41:56,240
think and Like that's such an LMG LTT Store answer cable man. Come on. Yeah cheap cheap cheap

1063
01:41:56,800 --> 01:42:02,240
And lastly name something you're likely to leave at the hotel while traveling

1064
01:42:02,960 --> 01:42:05,680
Linus you're up first because you're in last place

1065
01:42:06,800 --> 01:42:08,800
You

1066
01:42:11,680 --> 01:42:18,880
Cable okay, so is this like like you have left the hotel permanently you've checked out and yeah, you've left it at the hotel

1067
01:42:19,040 --> 01:42:22,640
I'm going with cable cable. Okay, luke

1068
01:42:26,400 --> 01:42:28,400
I don't like my guess anymore crap

1069
01:42:37,360 --> 01:42:39,360
Yeah

1070
01:42:41,040 --> 01:42:43,540
Charger Linus

1071
01:42:48,880 --> 01:42:53,120
Sock oh Sock

1072
01:42:53,120 --> 01:42:56,400
Are you a kick your socks off in bed kind of guy? Yeah, definitely

1073
01:42:56,560 --> 01:43:00,560
I used to be and then I left a lot of socks in hotel rooms

1074
01:43:01,520 --> 01:43:06,320
And now I just like I'm like no no not that and I'll I'll just take them and I'll put them in my pot

1075
01:43:07,360 --> 01:43:12,160
I think luke been pretty good about the last one last guess. So I'm going back to chat toothbrush. I don't know. It's not very good

1076
01:43:12,240 --> 01:43:18,240
But toothbrush. Okay. Let's see here. I feel like this one's gonna be quite number three

1077
01:43:19,040 --> 01:43:21,680
Headphones or earbuds. They'd love headphones

1078
01:43:24,960 --> 01:43:28,560
Definitely never leave my head why yeah, I would never leave my head number two

1079
01:43:29,520 --> 01:43:35,360
Toothbrush. Oh nice 15 points to luke. How do you people lose your toothbrush? How do you lose your toothbrush?

1080
01:43:35,440 --> 01:43:41,360
That is insane toothbrush, but I was just trying to think of things like I just oh, I've definitely left socks that one was good

1081
01:43:42,000 --> 01:43:46,080
And number one Charger for 25 points

1082
01:43:51,360 --> 01:43:54,720
I wasn't even sure charger would count because it was so similar to cable

1083
01:43:55,200 --> 01:43:58,880
I was going to give Linus judgment on cable if nobody picked it

1084
01:43:59,360 --> 01:44:04,880
Um, so that is 155 points to luke 85 points to liners

1085
01:44:06,080 --> 01:44:09,040
Yeah, I was literally I was worried there at the start

1086
01:44:10,000 --> 01:44:14,480
Dude purified water. What is wrong with you people just never they didn't really think about it

1087
01:44:14,800 --> 01:44:19,760
Yeah, I didn't think about it technically technology, but like not in the way we're talking about it right now

1088
01:44:20,240 --> 01:44:22,480
What is wrong with like floor water?

1089
01:44:28,080 --> 01:44:34,160
This guy This guy massive shout out again to delta hub

1090
01:44:35,120 --> 01:44:41,040
For sponsoring this fun little segment. That was pretty fun. Um, don't you dare do it again?

1091
01:44:44,800 --> 01:44:48,720
I mean blame blame your employees for that one. No, I blame delta hub

1092
01:44:49,520 --> 01:44:55,040
I blame my sponsor You blame the people with the cool balls. I will never take your money again

1093
01:44:56,560 --> 01:45:02,960
All right, uh, why don't we jump into they will if you go to the qr code on the screen now? Goodbye. They sure will

1094
01:45:04,560 --> 01:45:07,600
Um steam machine price leak

1095
01:45:09,040 --> 01:45:15,520
Yeah, um, I I was kind of wondering if because on at some point time on wansha

1096
01:45:15,600 --> 01:45:19,760
We said expected prices didn't we didn't we both guess we've talked about it

1097
01:45:19,760 --> 01:45:25,760
I have guessed in a dedicated video on LTT So what did you get because I I know I have guessed but I don't remember what I said

1098
01:45:26,000 --> 01:45:30,800
So what did you guess? I don't remember my guess. There's also a note that I think you just flashed it on screen

1099
01:45:31,040 --> 01:45:35,440
People are saying this is all bs. It might be we have no idea. It's a it's a leak or a rumor or whatever

1100
01:45:35,600 --> 01:45:39,360
But there's also people that have noted that in in chequilla

1101
01:45:40,560 --> 01:45:44,160
Uh, the tax is included in the price. So this would be with tax. Okay

1102
01:45:44,960 --> 01:45:50,400
So my guess and yeah, this could be total this could be total nonsense

1103
01:45:56,800 --> 01:45:59,680
How did this comment get

1104
01:46:01,520 --> 01:46:08,480
Uh, oh, yeah, it surprised me as well top up voted on reddit of all places. Yeah, you know what that's fine. I

1105
01:46:09,280 --> 01:46:15,200
Uh, okay. Anyway, the point is my guess according to the ai overview

1106
01:46:16,640 --> 01:46:21,040
Imagine using ai to find your own, um information. It does sound right though

1107
01:46:21,680 --> 01:46:24,960
My guess was apparently six six ninety nine

1108
01:46:25,520 --> 01:46:29,600
However, I did I did pull the totally

1109
01:46:30,480 --> 01:46:32,480
Um

1110
01:46:36,240 --> 01:46:39,760
Okay, yeah vice says I believe six ninety nine. Uh, apparently that's what I said

1111
01:46:40,160 --> 01:46:46,240
However, I did pull the totally bs move of saying barring any major changes in the market

1112
01:46:46,800 --> 01:46:49,280
Which was because d RAM was like

1113
01:46:50,080 --> 01:46:55,360
Looking like it was gonna go parabolic So you said six ninety nine u.s. Yep

1114
01:46:56,080 --> 01:47:02,320
Which it looks like they're tax on electronics there if I'm correct with the googling

1115
01:47:02,880 --> 01:47:09,120
Is twenty one percent? Okay. Um, so what's six ninety nine times twenty one percent? It's about another hundred and

1116
01:47:09,520 --> 01:47:13,920
Twenty hundred and thirty dollars or something like that. So eight hundred and thirty bucks

1117
01:47:14,480 --> 01:47:17,680
So I could be off by over a hundred dollars if

1118
01:47:18,800 --> 01:47:21,760
If It's just a straight conversion

1119
01:47:22,160 --> 01:47:26,080
There's very likely also like usually when you have something come up here

1120
01:47:26,560 --> 01:47:32,480
It'll be like yeah, it's it's price converted and then also rounded up to the highest closest ninety nine

1121
01:47:33,120 --> 01:47:41,040
Um So there's there's also stuff going going on like that. Miss me with that sales tax bs here in oregon

1122
01:47:42,400 --> 01:47:46,640
Yeah, oh right because they don't have it neat cool. Uh, but what we're talking about

1123
01:47:47,280 --> 01:47:51,120
Yeah, is why the the listed price on this leak might actually be

1124
01:47:51,600 --> 01:47:54,480
Higher than you might expect even if the leak is true

1125
01:47:54,800 --> 01:47:57,600
Which is because the tax might be included in this price

1126
01:47:57,920 --> 01:48:05,600
Because they include tax in their price in this region j christ 08 says people say the retailer adds 17 margin as well

1127
01:48:06,000 --> 01:48:08,000
Sounds like a credible person

1128
01:48:11,680 --> 01:48:15,600
Yeah, yeah, we already knew that part. Yeah, but then also margin for this retailer

1129
01:48:15,840 --> 01:48:19,920
So so all of that combined. Oh, okay. We might I might be really close land it pretty close

1130
01:48:20,000 --> 01:48:22,640
This is what I was trying to effectively get to. Yeah

1131
01:48:23,520 --> 01:48:27,680
That'd be kind of cool. I I wasn't expecting really to be right because I know there's so much

1132
01:48:28,640 --> 01:48:35,360
Volatility plus tax being included plus retailer markup not coming directly from steam all that kind of stuff might land it

1133
01:48:35,680 --> 01:48:41,680
Um pretty close to what was expected I think the conversation now is kind of the the branching decision tree then

1134
01:48:42,160 --> 01:48:47,840
So if this is right and it actually ends up being like 900 to 1,000 us dollars

1135
01:48:48,960 --> 01:48:53,120
Is it doa to you? No, really? Yeah, I don't think so at all

1136
01:48:54,000 --> 01:49:01,760
Um, I yield the floor One thing is I'm wondering about about competing devices that include a Windows license

1137
01:49:02,160 --> 01:49:09,280
If they will be priced competitively still after some of these vendors update their prices to reflect to reflect

1138
01:49:09,760 --> 01:49:14,000
increasing DRAM prices Both in the the you know

1139
01:49:14,000 --> 01:49:17,440
Honestly across the system because a variety of different things use DRAM these days

1140
01:49:19,280 --> 01:49:24,160
GPUs are going up in price. Everything else is going up in price. So like is this actually not that competitive?

1141
01:49:24,640 --> 01:49:29,600
Um, it might still be cheaper because of no Windows It might still be cheaper because of a variety of different reasons

1142
01:49:29,760 --> 01:49:37,760
Pricing is going through the freaking roof right now Correction for people who are about to tell him that nobody buys Windows. They definitely do especially when they're buying pre-builds

1143
01:49:37,840 --> 01:49:44,080
Yes, which this effectively is but then Windows also doesn't cost that much as a license on a pre-built machine

1144
01:49:44,160 --> 01:49:49,360
It still costs. Do you know how much it is? I don't remember. It's a lot less than retail, but it also

1145
01:49:50,160 --> 01:49:53,920
Significantly depends on your agreement with microsoft like at ncix

1146
01:49:54,320 --> 01:49:59,840
Retail was like a hundred dollars a hundred ten dollars and our cost was like 90 dollars like it wasn't much lower

1147
01:50:00,240 --> 01:50:09,200
But we also weren't like a proper si And I think a big part of the reason that we couldn't get proper si pricing was that they knew that we would just sell oem copies to

1148
01:50:09,920 --> 01:50:12,800
Regular retail customers for sure for sure

1149
01:50:13,200 --> 01:50:20,160
And so they like couldn't trust us with it essentially I'm trying to find and that was true not just of ncix, but the the the retail

1150
01:50:20,640 --> 01:50:27,120
Sort of pc hardware channel in generally just can't can't trust those guys to like abide by a licensing terms thing

1151
01:50:27,520 --> 01:50:31,840
Which from a consumer standpoint is pretty, you know, awesome and pro consumer

1152
01:50:32,160 --> 01:50:38,720
It's just that from microsoft's. Hey, we'd like to get the money that we intended for this particular licensing terms agreement

1153
01:50:39,120 --> 01:50:41,120
Is not conducive to that

1154
01:50:42,560 --> 01:50:47,280
I'm trying to figure how much it oh here we go while you're working on that amicur and inflow plane chat says

1155
01:50:47,600 --> 01:50:52,800
But do you think valve saw the reaction to your price estimate not being ridiculously angry and just went with it?

1156
01:50:53,520 --> 01:50:56,480
No, I don't I don't think I have that kind of influence. Yeah

1157
01:50:57,280 --> 01:51:00,480
It's it's so funny that my job title is has literally become

1158
01:51:01,120 --> 01:51:03,920
You know as the as the terms have have changed

1159
01:51:04,320 --> 01:51:10,320
Has become an influencer and I legitimately like do not have nearly as much influence as a lot of people seem to think I do

1160
01:51:10,880 --> 01:51:19,440
I think I think you said this last show as well I think you're absorbing that term in the wrong direction in my opinion. I think when most people say influencer

1161
01:51:19,520 --> 01:51:23,520
They don't mean of companies. They mean of the audience. No, no, that's a hundred percent true

1162
01:51:23,600 --> 01:51:26,720
So they're not talking about your ability to influence valver and vidya

1163
01:51:26,800 --> 01:51:30,400
Well, a lot of people in the audience think it goes both ways though, right?

1164
01:51:30,400 --> 01:51:34,320
It like for sure does I think there are a lot of I think there are a lot of people

1165
01:51:34,880 --> 01:51:39,440
In the online media slash influencer space who pretend that it does as well

1166
01:51:39,520 --> 01:51:45,040
I think there's definitely the ability to influence rage within a company at certain

1167
01:51:45,680 --> 01:51:49,920
employees for doing certain things so like

1168
01:51:49,920 --> 01:51:56,000
If something goes poorly a high up that sees that thing go poorly might crush down on someone for it

1169
01:51:56,880 --> 01:52:01,280
But if that was literally what they were intending and you're like, I don't like it

1170
01:52:01,840 --> 01:52:03,840
Because price go up

1171
01:52:05,280 --> 01:52:11,920
Yeah, I don't we're not having any kind of real impact on high level decisions. I mean if if online anger

1172
01:52:12,960 --> 01:52:19,440
From, you know influencers and and fans or whatever could could affect major decisions at large companies like

1173
01:52:20,720 --> 01:52:24,960
Disney's star wars leadership would not be what it is right now. Yeah

1174
01:52:25,920 --> 01:52:28,720
But yeah, I I still think this has viability

1175
01:52:29,280 --> 01:52:36,080
um There's also that another aspect of this that you've talked about fairly extensively at this point, which is the

1176
01:52:36,560 --> 01:52:39,200
Top 10 percent of earners buying 50 percent of things

1177
01:52:39,840 --> 01:52:45,200
Um, oh the k-shaped economy. Does this really affect the top 10 percent of earners?

1178
01:52:46,000 --> 01:52:51,600
No, but I also don't think that they were necessarily going to be after such a

1179
01:52:52,160 --> 01:52:57,040
mainstream product in the first place I don't know. I think

1180
01:52:57,280 --> 01:53:01,680
You can get a lot more pc for a thousand dollars. Yeah, but I don't think being top percent percent

1181
01:53:02,320 --> 01:53:04,720
I don't think being top 10 percent earner means

1182
01:53:05,760 --> 01:53:13,840
You're savvy. Yeah, that's fair I think it's like, oh cool steam has more hardware. I really like the steam deck. I'd be cool with more steam stuff

1183
01:53:13,920 --> 01:53:18,080
I'll just attach it to the steam box thing that can play video games on my tv. That's awesome

1184
01:53:18,160 --> 01:53:21,600
So next week, we're going to be shooting me building my own steam machine

1185
01:53:22,160 --> 01:53:29,280
Hold on 10 percent is still a huge market. No, it's it's 10 percent of income earners. Yeah, are 50 percent

1186
01:53:29,680 --> 01:53:33,040
Of the purchasing market. Yeah, so the top 10 percent of earners

1187
01:53:33,760 --> 01:53:38,960
Are responsible now for 50 percent of us spending. This is specifically in the us

1188
01:53:39,280 --> 01:53:43,440
Which for a wide variety of reasons is super bad is wild

1189
01:53:43,760 --> 01:53:49,760
Yeah, like absolutely mind-blowing like you can literally target the top 10 percent

1190
01:53:50,240 --> 01:53:53,600
And you can hit half of the spending in the entire us market

1191
01:53:54,160 --> 01:53:57,040
And when you consider how much lower margin

1192
01:53:57,600 --> 01:54:02,240
That other 90 the products you're selling to that other 90 percent are because they're going to be

1193
01:54:04,000 --> 01:54:06,000
You know more entry-level products

1194
01:54:07,280 --> 01:54:14,320
There all the the the lucrative opportunities shouldn't say all but many of the lucrative opportunities can be had

1195
01:54:14,800 --> 01:54:20,800
by only targeting The the very very top earners in that market

1196
01:54:22,160 --> 01:54:26,080
No, so bolster says it's bad, but it's still what 35 million people they can sell to

1197
01:54:26,720 --> 01:54:32,960
No, no That's not what's going on. That's completely not that's completely besides the point

1198
01:54:33,520 --> 01:54:40,320
The point is that when brands are targeting their product development and their marketing they can just ignore

1199
01:54:40,960 --> 01:54:43,280
90 percent of americans

1200
01:54:44,080 --> 01:54:51,200
and You know those 90 percent can go hey, please. We're drowning and we can't afford this

1201
01:54:51,760 --> 01:54:53,760
and brands can be like

1202
01:54:55,120 --> 01:54:58,560
Don't care Because they can access

1203
01:54:58,560 --> 01:55:04,800
50 percent of the consumer spending the far more lucrative far more profitable spending

1204
01:55:05,280 --> 01:55:08,880
By only targeting the top percent of earners. That's the point

1205
01:55:10,480 --> 01:55:14,240
Yeah, it's not yeah Yeah

1206
01:55:14,240 --> 01:55:23,200
When you're looking at amount of sales It's 50 percent of sales are to 10 percent of people nipolis cage says NVIDIA has entered the chat

1207
01:55:23,200 --> 01:55:31,600
Yeah, that's that's a prime example That was that was exactly what gave me the epiphany about this was like I was trying to put together how

1208
01:55:32,480 --> 01:55:40,000
All gamers seemingly are so angry at NVIDIA and yet NVIDIA's gaming revenue keeps going up

1209
01:55:40,800 --> 01:55:48,080
And I was like Everyone's mad. They keep selling more gpus. Their market share keeps being over 90 percent

1210
01:55:48,960 --> 01:55:55,200
How do I reconcile these? Well, right. It's because those 90 percent are a very loud voice

1211
01:55:56,000 --> 01:55:58,000
But not a very powerful voice

1212
01:55:59,120 --> 01:56:04,240
To people who to whom the only language that matters is how much of my s*** you're buying

1213
01:56:06,160 --> 01:56:09,280
And that was how I kind of finally put it together and I went oh, right

1214
01:56:09,760 --> 01:56:15,600
So these angry gamers I mean you might as well be you might as well be someone who

1215
01:56:16,400 --> 01:56:20,480
Pirated the movie complaining that you didn't like the plot literally you don't matter

1216
01:56:21,040 --> 01:56:27,600
You have no voice to a company whose only language is money and and that and that's just that's just the case

1217
01:56:27,680 --> 01:56:34,000
Once an organization gets large enough is everything boils down to to a spreadsheet to a finance document, right?

1218
01:56:34,800 --> 01:56:40,800
You literally have no voice If you're if you're not exchanging money with this company

1219
01:56:44,160 --> 01:56:47,200
Dead anti-social and Floatplane chat says buy more money

1220
01:56:49,200 --> 01:56:51,200
Yeah, well

1221
01:56:54,080 --> 01:57:00,160
Yeah, that's rough Yeah, so I I still think it'll be interesting for that 10 percent of people

1222
01:57:00,320 --> 01:57:04,640
Which means that if it is if that is true if it is interesting to those 10 percent of people

1223
01:57:05,040 --> 01:57:09,840
Then it will probably be successful um

1224
01:57:09,840 --> 01:57:15,600
Chaper 88 says chat or says is there a do your own steam machine video coming? Yes

1225
01:57:16,400 --> 01:57:19,840
I finally get to build it next week. Um, I've been out of town

1226
01:57:20,000 --> 01:57:23,920
So uh, justin and jordan got to have some of the fun without me

1227
01:57:24,400 --> 01:57:29,920
But it's going to be in the original steam machine prototype case that valve sent out

1228
01:57:31,040 --> 01:57:36,080
completely overhauled hardware That's awesome like like cutting edge AMD

1229
01:57:36,800 --> 01:57:42,000
Um processor for both CPU and GPU like like superfast machine

1230
01:57:42,560 --> 01:57:49,360
Um, it's still going to use all commodity hardware. So unlike the official steam machine 2026 whatever year they attach to it

1231
01:57:49,680 --> 01:57:52,480
It will be um upgradeable in the future

1232
01:57:53,120 --> 01:57:56,960
and We tried to make it match

1233
01:57:57,680 --> 01:58:01,040
the OEM steam machine experience in every way

1234
01:58:01,840 --> 01:58:06,000
And we were not able to get there for reasons that will get into a way more detail in the video

1235
01:58:06,080 --> 01:58:09,120
But it's good enough. It's good enough for me. And I'm pretty excited about it

1236
01:58:10,960 --> 01:58:15,520
Yeah, oh too far gone says it's time for the weekly Intel arc check

1237
01:58:17,280 --> 01:58:21,280
I'm actually worried because all the rumors that I've seen have been

1238
01:58:21,920 --> 01:58:24,400
GPU prices going up in january

1239
01:58:25,360 --> 01:58:29,200
Let's see has the arc b580 gone up in price

1240
01:58:30,800 --> 01:58:41,200
Okay, that's not a good sign the uh Oh, oh, yeah, that's not good. Okay. You know what? No 259 is within my margin of what I consider to be msrp

1241
01:58:41,840 --> 01:58:46,400
There is still one arc The onyx lumi

1242
01:58:46,400 --> 01:58:51,680
That is available for 259 Uh, Dan, do you remember? Can you post the link?

1243
01:58:52,480 --> 01:58:57,360
Oh, wait There is the female audience and Floatplane chat along with no key mr.

1244
01:58:57,360 --> 01:59:04,160
Nebih And some other people are reminding me of what our new egg affiliate url is it's LMG.gg slash new egg

1245
01:59:04,560 --> 01:59:12,560
Feel free to use that Link and then go and pick up an arc b580 12 gig gddr6

1246
01:59:13,040 --> 01:59:19,520
GPU with the Intel holiday bundle, which I remind you includes battlefield six

1247
01:59:20,240 --> 01:59:26,960
There you go or One of these other games if you prefer dying light the beast assassin's creed shadows or sieve

1248
01:59:28,560 --> 01:59:35,280
Uh seven for some reason or other. Yeah, you probably won't yeah, you probably won't take that last one. That's cool. Um

1249
01:59:36,560 --> 01:59:41,760
Yeah Great high end high detail 1080p gaming card

1250
01:59:42,240 --> 01:59:47,840
Even can handle 1440p if you don't mind a little bit of you know xcss upscaling

1251
01:59:48,080 --> 01:59:56,320
um Just yeah super quality card. I um, I actually didn't realize this until I was chatting with him at ces

1252
01:59:56,400 --> 02:00:02,000
But david gochie who did the most recent arc challenge and actually sold. I think he had a

1253
02:00:02,800 --> 02:00:07,840
30 80 30 90 or something like that really solid. I don't know how it was, but it was really solid

1254
02:00:07,920 --> 02:00:10,880
You know how at the end of the video. He's like i'm just staying on arc

1255
02:00:11,520 --> 02:00:16,720
He's still on arc. That's cool. And we I was chatting with him about it. That's really cool. And he's like, yeah, I've just

1256
02:00:18,640 --> 02:00:23,200
I've just disengaged from because because we were talking about how

1257
02:00:24,080 --> 02:00:27,920
I came across a comment on um

1258
02:00:27,920 --> 02:00:36,640
I think it was on the The AMD the AMD show coverage video where I pulled a gpd win five out of my backpack and was like

1259
02:00:36,720 --> 02:00:44,400
I've been playing expedition 33 on this at 1080p like epic details. No upscaling required

1260
02:00:45,120 --> 02:00:49,360
Um, it's incredible to be clear. I'm not targeting 60 FPS at epic on it

1261
02:00:49,360 --> 02:00:55,200
I have to go down to like medium or high or use a little bit of upscaling in order to uh, if I wanted like 60 plus FPS

1262
02:00:55,680 --> 02:00:58,400
The point is just like it looks I was like this looks

1263
02:00:59,280 --> 02:01:03,920
So good. It's absolutely incredible. And I'm not using any upscaling. Um

1264
02:01:04,400 --> 02:01:08,880
AMD's Strix halo chips are absolutely incredible, but they're expensive

1265
02:01:09,040 --> 02:01:13,760
That was sort of the point that I was going through so someone um actually lead me in the comments and they were like

1266
02:01:15,360 --> 02:01:25,200
Expedition 33 is a piece of s*** game because you actually can't run it without any kind of upscaling or gross taa or whatever

1267
02:01:25,600 --> 02:01:32,400
I spent like several hours trying to fix it and turn all that stuff off and I couldn't I returned the game

1268
02:01:33,680 --> 02:01:38,320
And I was like, okay first of all brother I

1269
02:01:38,560 --> 02:01:43,680
Sorry What I meant was I set my upscaling scale to 100 percent

1270
02:01:44,160 --> 02:01:51,600
If that still has some filters or whatever that bother you might be then fine, but I think my I think my meaning was clear

1271
02:01:52,240 --> 02:01:56,160
number two Get over it

1272
02:01:56,160 --> 02:02:02,640
It's a great game If it is even at all even remotely a genre you enjoy

1273
02:02:03,360 --> 02:02:09,600
Or you just are looking for an adventure and a and a wonderful story with engaging characters

1274
02:02:11,520 --> 02:02:17,440
Get over it and just play it um And so I was so I was talking to david about that interaction

1275
02:02:17,920 --> 02:02:24,320
And and he was and that was when he mentioned like yeah, I'm just I'm I've just disengaged myself

1276
02:02:24,880 --> 02:02:30,080
from needing to obsess over every pixel and I'm so much happier

1277
02:02:30,640 --> 02:02:33,600
And and I he said it at the end of the the arc challenge

1278
02:02:34,160 --> 02:02:39,360
I just wasn't sure if it would stick but he's still running his b580 and guy's a gamer

1279
02:02:39,680 --> 02:02:42,080
Like don't don't kid yourself. It's not that he just like

1280
02:02:42,720 --> 02:02:46,080
No, I don't know didn't really care that much because he doesn't play games that much. It's like

1281
02:02:47,680 --> 02:02:52,560
A gamer definitely a gamer confirmed Verified actual gamer. Yeah

1282
02:02:53,280 --> 02:03:01,760
And uh, I just I don't know man. I'm just like Whenever I hear people freaking out about GPU prices. I'm like, hey, we're hear me out

1283
02:03:02,640 --> 02:03:04,800
Buy the one that isn't unreasonably priced

1284
02:03:07,760 --> 02:03:09,760
Just buy it

1285
02:03:11,280 --> 02:03:15,280
I want to leak it so bad, but I won't but we have something very cool coming for this whole

1286
02:03:16,640 --> 02:03:18,640
Arc price check thing

1287
02:03:20,000 --> 02:03:27,920
That's all I'm gonna say Seriously, that's all I'm gonna say you can't do that. It's all I'm gonna say that's that's you don't have that power. Wait. He does

1288
02:03:32,160 --> 02:03:36,320
He's gone drunk with power he owns half the wancho for for two weeks

1289
02:03:37,040 --> 02:03:40,240
It's not even it's not even wancho stuff though. It's it's a different department

1290
02:03:41,520 --> 02:03:46,560
Um, but yeah, no, I I really wanted to show it off this week and to use it this week

1291
02:03:46,640 --> 02:03:50,240
Yeah, uh, but we won't we will we will use it in the future. I think I know

1292
02:03:51,760 --> 02:03:58,560
That does sound very exciting and I'm excited for it. Yeah Uh, all right. What are we supposed to be doing now? Oh Floatplane announcement

1293
02:03:59,440 --> 02:04:03,360
Yes, sir. Dan. I'm on it. Oh my god. There's so many more topics still. That's fine. This is fun

1294
02:04:03,440 --> 02:04:08,560
I'm having fun. This uh, wait, I was about to say the show is brought to you today by Floatplane. Uh, no nice

1295
02:04:08,640 --> 02:04:12,000
No, yeah, it's brought to you with Floatplane. Heck. Yeah

1296
02:04:13,040 --> 02:04:15,040
Where is the Floatplane? Oh, there they are

1297
02:04:16,080 --> 02:04:25,280
Luke Did you know that ces happened this week? Look, I'm just reading sammy's thing here. I take no responsibility for this

1298
02:04:26,400 --> 02:04:29,200
I didn't know because nothing eventful happened

1299
02:04:29,920 --> 02:04:36,160
Okay, that is actually that is actually legit. This is why I kind of opted to not go sort of saw it coming

1300
02:04:36,480 --> 02:04:40,080
this was the

1301
02:04:40,080 --> 02:04:44,400
lowest energy ces That I think I have been to

1302
02:04:45,200 --> 02:04:47,920
Maybe the recovery year the first year after covid

1303
02:04:48,560 --> 02:04:51,840
Because it was pretty slow, but there was at least tech that year

1304
02:04:52,080 --> 02:04:56,720
But like in terms of people it was pretty slow. I asked a lot of brands like look

1305
02:04:57,440 --> 02:05:01,760
Level with me here. I'm not leaking anything. You know that I've been around for a while. Yeah

1306
02:05:02,240 --> 02:05:04,240
Do you really have anything what's shaking?

1307
02:05:05,840 --> 02:05:11,120
No, not even bacon. No and there was a lot of people that were like, you know, I can't say but

1308
02:05:11,840 --> 02:05:18,160
Yeah, I'd be like, well, I'm considering like not going and I'm trying to figure out if I need to go and they'd be like

1309
02:05:21,120 --> 02:05:24,960
Yeah, okay for the first time ever I don't know if you know this

1310
02:05:25,760 --> 02:05:29,920
I came back a day early I didn't until like

1311
02:05:30,160 --> 02:05:34,880
Half an hour before the show someone mentioned you got here Wednesday or whatever and I was like, whoa

1312
02:05:34,960 --> 02:05:38,160
No, I got here. I got here yesterday afternoon. I was in office yesterday

1313
02:05:38,640 --> 02:05:41,600
I was supposed to be I was supposed to be flying back this morning

1314
02:05:42,080 --> 02:05:47,280
And I came back. I came back a full day early. It's not even that normal for you to still be there on friday

1315
02:05:47,600 --> 02:05:53,920
Yeah, like like doing the show from vegas. We've done that. No, not abnormal. He means like that would be normal to

1316
02:05:54,480 --> 02:05:59,040
To be there all week. Yeah, but like we we got some stuff done ahead of time

1317
02:05:59,360 --> 02:06:03,600
So MSI sent over there that monitor with their fifth gen qto led panel

1318
02:06:03,840 --> 02:06:08,720
So we were able to talk about like hardness improvements and magenta, whatever that was a sponsored video full disclosure

1319
02:06:08,720 --> 02:06:11,360
But it was still cool new tech that was coming at ces

1320
02:06:12,640 --> 02:06:19,520
What was another one we did early we did we did del's like 6k monitor early also sponsored we and then once I got there

1321
02:06:20,240 --> 02:06:23,840
I I got briefed on the new dlss stuff

1322
02:06:24,320 --> 02:06:28,000
Like the night we arrived which was on the weekend which is still before the show

1323
02:06:28,320 --> 02:06:32,320
So I had all the information but then of course, you know

1324
02:06:32,800 --> 02:06:40,880
with any brand and No offense to envidia, but particularly envidia what I'll do is I'll write branching versions of the script

1325
02:06:42,560 --> 02:06:45,440
One where everything they tell me is totally true

1326
02:06:45,760 --> 02:06:48,800
And one where there's a little bit of bullshit mixed in with it

1327
02:06:48,960 --> 02:06:53,440
So you always go with the one on the left and this time. No, oh dude

1328
02:06:54,320 --> 02:07:00,320
Have you tried dlss 4.5? No, we'll get to that in a second. Okay first

1329
02:07:01,280 --> 02:07:06,240
So I got briefed on that I I think I I think I wrote and shot

1330
02:07:06,640 --> 02:07:09,920
The AMD coverage because we had a pre-briefing on that

1331
02:07:10,480 --> 02:07:17,120
And then Intel I was able to do on the very first day of the show because I had that sponsored thing for MSI's laptops

1332
02:07:17,120 --> 02:07:19,440
they wanted to show off their prestige laptop and their stealth

1333
02:07:20,160 --> 02:07:24,560
And both of them contained panther lake and I was like, okay, listen guys

1334
02:07:25,200 --> 02:07:33,680
Here's what we can do I can do a dedicated sponsored LTT on these two laptops and you can have 300 000 views

1335
02:07:34,560 --> 02:07:38,640
or Hear me out Panther lake is kind of a big deal

1336
02:07:38,960 --> 02:07:44,160
I really want to talk about panther lake You can be the vehicle through which I talk about panther lake

1337
02:07:45,040 --> 02:07:47,840
That will get probably closer to a million views

1338
02:07:48,560 --> 02:07:54,000
And by the time I start talking about your laptop probably half of those people will have tuned out

1339
02:07:54,560 --> 02:08:00,160
That is still more. Yeah, then you will get that is still a w if I make the video just about your laptop

1340
02:08:00,240 --> 02:08:07,280
And they were super understanding about that And we're basically like, okay, go ahead. So I pretty much got my entire panther lake coverage

1341
02:08:07,600 --> 02:08:14,080
Which I had all the slides from From the way better presentation that was like the architectural dive

1342
02:08:14,560 --> 02:08:18,480
Rather than the keynote. I didn't even see the keynote. I heard it was

1343
02:08:19,120 --> 02:08:26,800
trash I've heard some very bad things And I'm actually super glad that I ended up taking that approach rather than even I didn't even go to the keynote

1344
02:08:26,960 --> 02:08:34,800
Keynotes are so dumb. Yeah, um because there was actually a spontaneous post on the subreddit like the LTT subreddit that was just like

1345
02:08:35,280 --> 02:08:40,320
Hey, thanks Linus for providing like a really balanced take on panther lake

1346
02:08:40,560 --> 02:08:47,760
And I was like, I didn't even really feel like Like I had a particularly because you didn't see the keynote is because I didn't watch the keynote

1347
02:08:47,920 --> 02:08:54,080
So I literally actually just looked at the panther lake like architectural

1348
02:08:54,720 --> 02:08:57,760
Brief and I looked at the at the lineup

1349
02:08:58,080 --> 02:09:02,400
And I looked at what they're claiming in terms of like GPU and efficiency improvements

1350
02:09:02,640 --> 02:09:07,440
And I was like and and then I I was able to game on it at the MSI booth

1351
02:09:07,760 --> 02:09:16,800
And I was like, yo this thing's sick What games do they have available I I didn't ask for more than just cyberpunk because I've seen it on so many different platforms

1352
02:09:17,280 --> 02:09:22,320
That you just you get a feel you get a feel for it and I was able to feel enough that I was like

1353
02:09:23,040 --> 02:09:28,000
I am justified in being enthusiastic about this. That was all I needed to know, right? It's show coverage

1354
02:09:28,000 --> 02:09:32,560
It's not a full review at the event that we went to for panther lake a bit ago

1355
02:09:32,800 --> 02:09:36,640
Um, they had a a laptop there that you could game on but they had one game

1356
02:09:36,640 --> 02:09:41,200
It was already loaded in you couldn't open the settings. Oh, I was allowed to you could see the frame rate

1357
02:09:41,760 --> 02:09:45,280
And it was a unreleased game

1358
02:09:45,280 --> 02:09:53,680
Okay So I can't feedback being just like guys you got to be slightly more useful than this meant actually nothing like yeah

1359
02:09:55,040 --> 02:10:01,840
Please uh, and they seemed receptive. So that was cool. Um, anyway, so yeah, so by like day two

1360
02:10:03,760 --> 02:10:11,200
I think it was was it tuesday or wednesday it was whatever was the day of the robot fight. Um, yeah ufb

1361
02:10:11,760 --> 02:10:14,560
Five here hold on let me find out where's that going up by the way

1362
02:10:15,280 --> 02:10:19,360
We're gonna have a video and then also I think they're gonna have their own things. Okay, so january 6th

1363
02:10:20,080 --> 02:10:28,720
So by tuesday Because that was so sunday monday. You were like done by tuesday. I had nothing booked for tuesday morning. Yeah

1364
02:10:29,520 --> 02:10:34,800
So that's where finally coming all the way around to sammy and his Floatplane announcements

1365
02:10:35,360 --> 02:10:39,600
Sammy pings me. He's like, yo, do you want to just go hang out on the show floor?

1366
02:10:39,920 --> 02:10:42,640
I really like doing these. Um, so yeah

1367
02:10:43,360 --> 02:10:47,920
Sammy and I hung out on the show floor. We went through the uh, was this the north hall or the central hall?

1368
02:10:48,320 --> 02:10:51,920
I forget which one it was but we just did we did one of the halls together

1369
02:10:52,960 --> 02:10:58,640
And it was cool. We found some cool stuff. I found some cool contacts. I found uh, I found a company that makes um

1370
02:10:59,600 --> 02:11:02,720
Um, like a really cool competitor to conformal coding

1371
02:11:03,440 --> 02:11:06,800
That's like you can rework. You can apply it without masking

1372
02:11:07,120 --> 02:11:11,280
Right, so we're gonna we're gonna hopefully collaborate with these guys

1373
02:11:11,760 --> 02:11:15,280
I found um, I found a company that does like flight sims

1374
02:11:16,000 --> 02:11:18,560
But like professional ones. Oh, but also

1375
02:11:19,280 --> 02:11:22,720
A cut down educational version that's still like

1376
02:11:23,360 --> 02:11:31,360
Pretty legit, but doesn't have the motion controls and stuff and they're down to collab on like a $10 versus $100,000 flight sim

1377
02:11:31,440 --> 02:11:35,840
That's cool. Actually, that's so i'm super excited about that. That's awesome. So it was like it was great

1378
02:11:35,920 --> 02:11:40,640
I actually got to attend the show floor as like a networking event for for a day

1379
02:11:41,200 --> 02:11:46,560
And then I had the I had the the bot fight thing, which was something

1380
02:11:47,200 --> 02:11:50,880
um It was quite the experience

1381
02:11:52,560 --> 02:11:58,240
We've talked for a long time. I actually had I had a conversation with emma about this this morning

1382
02:11:59,120 --> 02:12:03,680
she was asking me about CES and

1383
02:12:03,760 --> 02:12:10,000
Like why didn't I go? Yeah, and I I gave this spiel of just like there's I just knew there was nothing this year

1384
02:12:10,240 --> 02:12:13,600
Like I just I just it was in my bones. I knew there was nothing this year

1385
02:12:13,760 --> 02:12:18,480
I also tried to get suss out feelings from these different companies and no one was really giving me anything and

1386
02:12:18,720 --> 02:12:24,400
Usually you can kind of see in the eyes of somebody When you ask them like is there really going to be anything you can see the like

1387
02:12:25,360 --> 02:12:29,760
The like the the competitive spirit a little bit when they're like, I can't tell you but you can just see it

1388
02:12:29,760 --> 02:12:32,640
They're like, I've got some feel the energy. It's like when I guess price like that

1389
02:12:32,880 --> 02:12:35,360
Yeah, like you can tell if you're close, you know, yeah, yeah

1390
02:12:36,000 --> 02:12:41,360
And I was just like there just wasn't anything Um and salmo asks did you get anything good for the tonight show? I did

1391
02:12:41,360 --> 02:12:46,000
There was like gimmicky stuff that I think is gonna is gonna sell really well for like a tv audience

1392
02:12:46,560 --> 02:12:55,280
um, and there's like Wow factor stuff, but it's not an LTT video. It's not something you should buy, you know

1393
02:12:55,600 --> 02:12:59,680
So this this was my next point necessarily some of it's pretty cool some of it's pretty cool

1394
02:12:59,760 --> 02:13:03,840
This feels like an additional inflection point because we had the original you and me working together

1395
02:13:03,920 --> 02:13:07,360
We walk into the little little thing at ncx and there's a mountain of products

1396
02:13:07,360 --> 02:13:10,720
And you just film film film and then you're done and then there was partway through

1397
02:13:10,720 --> 02:13:14,640
I don't necessarily know the exact year, but there was partway through when we started having discussions about like

1398
02:13:15,360 --> 02:13:20,800
We need to make the content now. We need to become the news because that's what I used to say. Yeah, there isn't enough

1399
02:13:21,760 --> 02:13:26,880
Interesting automatic news. There isn't enough products coming out. Yeah, this feels like another dip in that

1400
02:13:27,760 --> 02:13:32,960
Where like your show floor walk where you're saying oh, I networked and I found these interesting video ideas

1401
02:13:32,960 --> 02:13:37,440
Oh, we can make this video idea on this this flight sim thing that makes a ton of sense to me personally

1402
02:13:37,520 --> 02:13:41,760
We can't just wait for it. That's what we have to do now. Yep. Yeah, and that's where the tech house

1403
02:13:41,920 --> 02:13:50,560
That's where the tech house comes in emma brought up the tech house Emma was like the tech house makes a lot of sense now because you guys have to take an additional step forward

1404
02:13:51,280 --> 02:13:56,640
To push even harder to make the news or whatever whatever however you want to define it

1405
02:13:56,880 --> 02:14:00,400
Yeah, we will and it's it's it's not necessarily

1406
02:14:01,200 --> 02:14:06,480
A doom and gloom time. It's just adapting with the times and now we're in kind of a

1407
02:14:07,200 --> 02:14:11,920
Two-year cadence almost we're like, I bet you next ces will be decently interesting

1408
02:14:12,000 --> 02:14:17,360
I think so I think computex is actually going to be pretty sick computex will probably be pretty good because next ces will be interesting

1409
02:14:17,920 --> 02:14:25,760
I I guess I just kind of like Casually dropped that by the way. Um, yeah, we should talk about that

1410
02:14:27,840 --> 02:14:32,400
I don't know It's up somewhere. Yeah, I know. I just don't know how it works

1411
02:14:33,280 --> 02:14:39,280
um I I'm like boomer trying to navigate this. I'm going to guests

1412
02:14:40,240 --> 02:14:44,320
I don't

1413
02:14:44,400 --> 02:14:47,760
understand tickets

1414
02:14:47,760 --> 02:14:49,760
Request tickets something

1415
02:14:51,040 --> 02:14:55,920
Posted on instagram. I mean it's got to be Okay shows come on

1416
02:14:57,840 --> 02:14:59,840
Okay, the tonight show with jimmy fallon

1417
02:15:00,960 --> 02:15:05,360
Okay Come on. Here we go. Here we go. Here we go. I think I got it. I think I got it. Here we go

1418
02:15:05,440 --> 02:15:07,440
I just need to bit it but

1419
02:15:10,720 --> 02:15:14,480
I might meet jason the mow that'd be pretty cool. Yeah, that's pretty sweet. I uh

1420
02:15:15,440 --> 02:15:17,920
Okay, this is going to be embarrassing. I have to look up this guy

1421
02:15:19,440 --> 02:15:24,420
Oh, I think he's snl Comedian writer known for his work on Saturday Night Live. Okay, that's cool

1422
02:15:25,380 --> 02:15:32,420
Super cool. Okay So, yeah, thursday Thursday put in your account. There's thursday january 15th

1423
02:15:32,820 --> 02:15:37,860
I'm gonna be on the tonight show with jimmy fallon. We've actually got a bunch of really cool stuff

1424
02:15:38,420 --> 02:15:42,820
um, that's gonna It's more mainstream

1425
02:15:42,820 --> 02:15:48,820
Because you know, we're we're talking to a very different audience from the LTT audience and you got to be able to kind of hold it

1426
02:15:49,780 --> 02:15:54,580
There's limitations. Yeah, like I saw I saw a really incredible chocolate 3d printer

1427
02:15:55,220 --> 02:16:00,580
That it it's like on demand So it takes only I think it only took about 30 seconds

1428
02:16:00,980 --> 02:16:06,740
No, no, it was more than 30. Sorry. It's about two minutes to like poop out a chocolate like about this big like a chocolate 3d printer

1429
02:16:06,820 --> 02:16:12,580
And so you basically go. Yeah, I want this one I want it in this shape and it prints it for you and then it comes out and it's like ready to eat

1430
02:16:12,740 --> 02:16:16,100
And I was like that'd be super cool. How on earth would we get it there?

1431
02:16:16,260 --> 02:16:19,780
Yeah, that could make a lot of sense. But if it was if it was there and that's difficult

1432
02:16:19,780 --> 02:16:22,820
How fun would it be to start the segment being like, okay, okay, jimmy

1433
02:16:23,300 --> 02:16:28,500
Pick what shape of chocolate you want and he goes like And then we get a little bit of footage of it starting and I go okay

1434
02:16:28,820 --> 02:16:32,980
And then try this piece of chocolate and then give them a piece of chocolate in that shape or something while we wait for this

1435
02:16:33,540 --> 02:16:36,820
To go. Let me show you some other cool stuff. Yeah, hey

1436
02:16:37,700 --> 02:16:41,780
Feels like uh feels like we've waited long enough for our chocolate. Is it done? It's done

1437
02:16:41,940 --> 02:16:47,060
And then there's chocolate jimmy and then he eats it exactly right like that kind of thing but just the

1438
02:16:48,660 --> 02:16:55,540
The logistics of getting something like that relatively short time frame on a short time frame just seemed like they just weren't really going to happen

1439
02:16:55,620 --> 02:17:01,460
Yeah Um, so yeah, there was there was lots of stuff. We had lots of options. We actually gave them a menu that was like

1440
02:17:02,180 --> 02:17:07,380
A dozen plus items long and I think we've narrowed it down to about half a dozen now

1441
02:17:07,620 --> 02:17:12,420
Do you guys do the like writer hunt again? We actually had um

1442
02:17:12,500 --> 02:17:15,700
Or procurement hunt. Yeah, who was it who was on that?

1443
02:17:15,700 --> 02:17:19,620
We had someone who was basically dedicated for a couple of days to

1444
02:17:20,260 --> 02:17:24,980
Finding things for the tonight show which makes no financial sense because no

1445
02:17:26,260 --> 02:17:35,140
Not because they didn't try But I wasn't compensated in any way for the last appearance and I doubt that I am this time because it's it's i'm canadian

1446
02:17:35,700 --> 02:17:44,100
And so it's like harder for them to pay me Or harder for me to accept the funds for some like tax or production reasons. I don't remember it wasn't their fault

1447
02:17:44,580 --> 02:17:50,260
Um, but it's like it's not it doesn't make it doesn't make any like like like money sense, but it's fun

1448
02:17:50,740 --> 02:17:58,180
Yeah, it's just fun. It's like it's neat. It's like, uh, like someone someone made an offhand comment to me about that that ufb robot fight thing

1449
02:17:58,180 --> 02:18:01,380
They were like, oh, I assumed they just threw like a big bucket of money at you and I was like, no

1450
02:18:01,860 --> 02:18:06,660
It just sounds fun if they did I would have disclosed it so you would have known but also I was just like

1451
02:18:07,220 --> 02:18:09,460
I don't know. Fuck it. I'm gonna do a robot fight

1452
02:18:10,980 --> 02:18:17,460
Come on. I keep telling people why wouldn't you dude? I'm so I feel like I'm so easy to figure out

1453
02:18:18,340 --> 02:18:23,140
Like I'm telling people I'm in my zero fucks given phase in my career

1454
02:18:23,940 --> 02:18:25,940
so when I decide to just like

1455
02:18:26,980 --> 02:18:31,060
realistically spend a lot of money to go and like

1456
02:18:32,020 --> 02:18:36,020
I don't know be on tv and meet Jason Momoa because that sounds pretty cool

1457
02:18:36,580 --> 02:18:42,580
And also Fallon super cool too by the way from from the limited interactions. I've had with them. We're not like bffs

1458
02:18:43,060 --> 02:18:49,620
um Or if I want to like be in a robot fight, I don't know man. I'm just I'm just gonna do it

1459
02:18:50,580 --> 02:18:56,340
I don't care anymore. Yeah, sweet. I don't care anymore. I'm just gonna go for you want to leave CES early because it's just kind of boring

1460
02:18:57,060 --> 02:19:02,580
Yeah, then I might just do that too. Yeah, whatever Uh, let me check. Let me check the jimmy fallon leads chats

1461
02:19:02,740 --> 02:19:05,620
Um, shout out. There is a point in time where that would not have been an option

1462
02:19:05,780 --> 02:19:10,500
Shout out Jake belivance for all the cool stuff that he posted. I think sean caldera might have been our guy

1463
02:19:11,140 --> 02:19:17,460
Uh, or was it was it no one? Uh, I can't remember who was assigned to that might have been no one. Uh, but yeah, we

1464
02:19:18,900 --> 02:19:20,900
We we put in the work we put in the work

1465
02:19:22,500 --> 02:19:28,100
Uh, oh right. What was I supposed to be talking about? Oh, yeah, okay other exclusives over at LMG.gg

1466
02:19:28,260 --> 02:19:33,540
Slash Floatplane. We have LMG's favorite tech of the year featuring the one and only mr.

1467
02:19:33,620 --> 02:19:37,460
Riley meridoc But that's all you get to see if you don't want to subscribe over on Floatplane

1468
02:19:38,100 --> 02:19:42,980
Our discussion question is what was Linus luke and Dan's tech of the year?

1469
02:19:45,380 --> 02:19:52,420
Who's your tech of the year I would love to stay big screen beyond two if i've tried it yet. You still haven't tried it. I have not

1470
02:19:52,740 --> 02:19:56,180
You haven't tried it. No, I need to know if i'm gonna get one or not

1471
02:19:56,660 --> 02:19:59,220
It's all hinging on you. I told you you could borrow it

1472
02:20:00,500 --> 02:20:06,660
Yeah, I forgot. Yeah, you should just borrow it. Also. I can't do that. It's your it's your unboxing experience

1473
02:20:06,980 --> 02:20:14,020
I already unboxed it. It can't come used I can you you you paid for it. I unboxed it. I put it on my face and it's never turned it on

1474
02:20:16,900 --> 02:20:23,300
Did you get a little can for it? No, I didn't you know what the worst part is I was at like those are cool though. I was at pymax's booth

1475
02:20:26,180 --> 02:20:29,060
Their new ones might be a better beyond than the beyond

1476
02:20:30,420 --> 02:20:34,820
There's trade-offs. There's trade-offs. They don't have the custom fit gasket

1477
02:20:36,580 --> 02:20:40,420
Um, are they like huge like the pymax? No, okay, they have a new one

1478
02:20:41,060 --> 02:20:44,260
um Actually, is that is that video up yet?

1479
02:20:44,740 --> 02:20:52,180
There's uh, there's a ShortCircuit ShortCircuit. I'm not I'm not that worried about it. I'm happy that the space seems to be moving right now

1480
02:20:52,420 --> 02:20:58,580
It doesn't I love they're pushing it forward. Yeah. Yeah, I purchased something that I was really excited about and that's okay

1481
02:20:58,740 --> 02:21:04,100
I'm not like if there's if the if the steam frame is really cool great if the new pymax is really cool great

1482
02:21:04,340 --> 02:21:08,340
That's not a problem. I think it's great. I don't I don't want that space to die

1483
02:21:08,740 --> 02:21:14,820
um And competition is good And I I'm not I'm not gonna be frustrated about my purchase because something happened

1484
02:21:15,460 --> 02:21:21,780
To me that delayed my ability to use it So are you just trying to show off how much more mature you are than the average consumer right now?

1485
02:21:21,780 --> 02:21:24,900
Like I'm just I'm trying to figure out your motivation for giving this spiel

1486
02:21:25,620 --> 02:21:32,500
I think it's just like I don't I don't love that like see I'm just about that. Oh my god. I just um

1487
02:21:33,540 --> 02:21:38,500
I don't love that uh Beyond big screen beyond has been put in this like position

1488
02:21:38,900 --> 02:21:42,580
Of like does everyone regret their purchases now that there's competitors and it's like

1489
02:21:43,380 --> 02:21:47,620
Whatever dude, they made a cool thing like the pymax one is not as light

1490
02:21:48,580 --> 02:21:53,780
Is it the crystal light? Is that where we're looking at? No, it's the dream or error or something dream air

1491
02:21:54,580 --> 02:21:58,580
Dream air se maybe. Yeah, there it is there. That's that's one. Okay, so here it is pretty small

1492
02:21:58,900 --> 02:22:01,860
So it doesn't have the custom gasket. It's not as light

1493
02:22:02,340 --> 02:22:04,740
But they do have a number of options for

1494
02:22:05,780 --> 02:22:09,700
the um Wait, is this the se?

1495
02:22:09,860 --> 02:22:17,060
Yeah, yeah, that is not the resolution that they told me. Okay. Check the dream air not se

1496
02:22:17,700 --> 02:22:23,860
Okay, because they told me a different resolution. It might just look really similar 3840 by 3552 for the non

1497
02:22:24,100 --> 02:22:28,100
Okay, good. Then the non se is the one that I was covering at the show. So should we check that out?

1498
02:22:28,340 --> 02:22:33,140
The fov seems way higher than the um, I mean, they've always been fov heavy, haven't they?

1499
02:22:33,460 --> 02:22:36,020
That's kind of their deal like their thing. Yeah, so

1500
02:22:36,900 --> 02:22:39,300
These are these are 4k per eye

1501
02:22:40,340 --> 02:22:43,860
up to 90 hertz Um, do they come in clear though?

1502
02:22:44,500 --> 02:22:50,980
clear Like the the the the big screen beyond comes out here. Yeah, dude. It's so sick

1503
02:22:51,540 --> 02:22:56,580
It is so cool. Like that has a value. Yeah, it actually does. Oh, yeah

1504
02:22:56,980 --> 02:23:00,340
I think they're I think their cable management is a little better

1505
02:23:00,580 --> 02:23:06,980
They did a cool cable that splits the DisplayPort and the other data and it actually plugs in on both sides

1506
02:23:07,220 --> 02:23:15,060
so it doesn't And their rationale for it was that very lightweight headsets if they're being tugged from one side are more susceptible for sure

1507
02:23:15,220 --> 02:23:20,020
That makes sense. Um, it's inside out though. Did you get it clear when I got the translucent orange? It's both

1508
02:23:20,260 --> 02:23:24,100
So that's pretty cool. There's two versions of the dream air

1509
02:23:24,820 --> 02:23:28,340
One that uses lighthouse tracking and one that uses slam

1510
02:23:29,140 --> 02:23:34,580
Which is pretty cool. They can't be unlike pymax's other ones that have like swappable modules and stuff

1511
02:23:34,580 --> 02:23:38,660
It's not modular. You can't like you can't just turn one of them into the other one

1512
02:23:39,220 --> 02:23:42,900
But it looks pretty good. It looks pretty darn good. Very impressive

1513
02:23:45,140 --> 02:23:52,900
Um, I am gonna be take a total cop out path here and I'm gonna say steamframe

1514
02:23:52,900 --> 02:23:59,940
Okay, it's not out yet. Yeah, that doesn't seem fair. Is that a hack? That does seem like a hack

1515
02:23:59,940 --> 02:24:04,020
Because I'm so excited for it. That is sick. I think I think for this answer

1516
02:24:04,020 --> 02:24:07,460
It has to be stuff that came out this year. It's for reasons that are so specific to me

1517
02:24:07,860 --> 02:24:11,940
like I have that weird fanless cooled machine

1518
02:24:12,100 --> 02:24:19,780
in my rec room that I use for vr and specifically the big screen beyond twos like breakout box like doesn't really work to

1519
02:24:20,580 --> 02:24:25,940
Get into where the io is In that case and their cables a little shorter than the index

1520
02:24:26,340 --> 02:24:31,940
So like the cable management kind of sucks and I can't really like I can't really put that cool machine up on a little pedestal

1521
02:24:31,940 --> 02:24:35,300
Where I want it without putting a hole in the side of my media console

1522
02:24:35,460 --> 02:24:39,780
So it's just been like kind of janky and annoying me and being able to switch to wireless is going to make it all look

1523
02:24:39,780 --> 02:24:45,380
So much nicer. It's like So specific to exactly how I want to use it

1524
02:24:45,700 --> 02:24:49,460
Although I'm going to have four holes in my ceiling now for where my base stations used to be

1525
02:24:50,020 --> 02:24:55,540
And I will not need those anymore. I was unnecessary, but hey anyone looking for some base stations

1526
02:24:56,340 --> 02:24:59,140
All right. Okay, so pick something for this year. You know what? Okay, fine

1527
02:24:59,380 --> 02:25:05,140
I'm going to go with something that is out this year even though it kind of sucks so far and I'm going to go with micro RGB

1528
02:25:05,860 --> 02:25:13,300
backlights Many sorry mini RGB mini not micro, but but RGB backlighting that

1529
02:25:14,420 --> 02:25:18,420
That new high sense tv the 116 inch that we looked at earlier this year

1530
02:25:20,180 --> 02:25:26,180
Not there yet because you get when you have a dimming zone that isn't just a glow when it's like a colored glow

1531
02:25:27,060 --> 02:25:32,100
Not great whenever you spot it and the and the motion response on it was not good the pixel to pixel

1532
02:25:32,900 --> 02:25:38,340
Transition times are just too long Uh, but I can see where they're going with it and it's like

1533
02:25:39,380 --> 02:25:43,620
Really cool really exciting Yeah

1534
02:25:45,300 --> 02:25:53,780
All right, how'd we how'd we get on this subject? I mean that was the subject so you can go back to topics now. Yeah, that was a merge message

1535
02:25:54,020 --> 02:25:57,540
No, that was a full plane announcement talking about ces. Oh, was it? Yeah

1536
02:25:58,100 --> 02:26:00,900
Whoa, I don't know my job is just to talk so like

1537
02:26:01,460 --> 02:26:06,660
Well, you did it correctly and then second guess yourself. Thanks, tan. Wait classic

1538
02:26:07,300 --> 02:26:13,140
Uh, you don't have to you're great something. I want to throw it there really quick was that I got my reddit account back

1539
02:26:13,780 --> 02:26:18,340
Oh, hooray I don't remember which day it was. I think it was like Tuesday or something

1540
02:26:18,740 --> 02:26:21,540
um, I got a text message when I was still asleep because

1541
02:26:22,260 --> 02:26:26,660
Timezones and stuff. I guess never noticed it and then got a quick call

1542
02:26:27,300 --> 02:26:34,580
Probably one of the fastest calls. I've literally had in my life. Okay from a robot at dbrand, which is how they will be referenced

1543
02:26:35,060 --> 02:26:37,300
um, I didn't even know that this

1544
02:26:38,260 --> 02:26:45,860
This robot had my number But they called me and I recognized the robot and was like, okay. I picked up the phone and they were like, hey

1545
02:26:46,260 --> 02:26:49,940
Uh, I have a contact Do you want me to solve it?

1546
02:26:49,940 --> 02:26:53,460
And I was like, yeah, that'd be sweet. They're like cool. I'll loop you in bye click

1547
02:26:54,900 --> 02:26:56,900
gone

1548
02:26:58,100 --> 02:27:02,820
I was like Oh

1549
02:27:03,140 --> 02:27:09,540
What and then like literally like 10 minutes later or something I got an email from somebody being like, yeah, I can solve that

1550
02:27:09,540 --> 02:27:12,900
Just do this thing real quick. I did that thing real quick. I count back. Wow

1551
02:27:16,340 --> 02:27:18,340
That was crazy

1552
02:27:19,460 --> 02:27:28,180
That was pretty cool. Not gonna lie rag gate to us on uh, in Floatplane 6 robot. It's good to be the king

1553
02:27:29,140 --> 02:27:37,460
That was pretty sick pixel cat now. That's influential. That was uh, that was pretty cool. Where is this man's wikipedia page?

1554
02:27:38,900 --> 02:27:43,060
That should be on the wikipedia page aided by a robot got his reddit account back

1555
02:27:44,820 --> 02:27:48,420
But yeah, thanks dbrand. I uh, I appreciate it and thank you robot

1556
02:27:49,860 --> 02:27:53,540
Um, I much want to bet that your wikipedia page is already better

1557
02:27:53,940 --> 02:28:02,180
Better than what better than it was when we looked at it earlier in the show today. Oh, maybe it's never gonna happen

1558
02:28:03,380 --> 02:28:08,580
I mean, I said that about myself Wait, why can't I I can't even find it anymore?

1559
02:28:10,900 --> 02:28:15,780
Isn't it you go into that reddit thread and then click on it, right? Was that where? Oh, yeah, that's what you did before

1560
02:28:16,420 --> 02:28:19,860
Okay, let's see. Let's see if it's improved. Oh, come on guys get it together

1561
02:28:24,500 --> 02:28:26,500
Oh, man, all right

1562
02:28:27,860 --> 02:28:33,860
What else do we have here at least you should call them robot, but they're they're specific like branding around it is robot though

1563
02:28:33,940 --> 02:28:37,060
So I'll be I'll be nice, but I do like robot. This is cool. Um

1564
02:28:37,620 --> 02:28:45,540
Co-founder of both cd project red and gog has acquired gog from cd project red reiterates philosophy of freedom independence and genuine control

1565
02:28:45,940 --> 02:28:52,500
It's cool that cd project red wanted to divest of this asset to focus on other things and didn't sell it to

1566
02:28:52,980 --> 02:28:55,540
Private equity. Yeah, I dove into this a decent amount

1567
02:28:56,020 --> 02:29:00,020
Yeah, and it just actually seemed totally fine wholesome and chill. Yeah

1568
02:29:00,580 --> 02:29:04,100
I was like, where's the badness in this and it never showed up

1569
02:29:04,660 --> 02:29:11,140
Isn't it cool when cd project red just like behaves all cool. Yeah. Yeah, they don't always get things perfectly right

1570
02:29:11,540 --> 02:29:17,380
No, nobody does. No, they don't but I see I think that's important. I think that that at this point

1571
02:29:18,100 --> 02:29:21,300
it is just such a bad faith

1572
02:29:21,300 --> 02:29:25,940
Bullshit take to talk about, you know, how crappy cyberpunk was it launch?

1573
02:29:26,820 --> 02:29:28,820
Anyone who was upset about it got a refund

1574
02:29:29,860 --> 02:29:35,300
And they made the game good and a lot of those people just bought it again. What more can they do?

1575
02:29:40,180 --> 02:29:43,220
I don't know why this made me think of it, but they will never solve starfield

1576
02:29:44,020 --> 02:29:47,940
Starfield that's Bethesda. They will I know. Oh, okay. I thought I'm sorry. I thought you were

1577
02:29:48,660 --> 02:29:53,940
I was like, what does that have to do with cd project? Nothing. Okay, your base gamer status is removed immediately

1578
02:29:53,940 --> 02:30:00,260
I don't care about we tell wow. They're different companies. You're done. Wait, you're a starfield fan. No, no, no

1579
02:30:00,340 --> 02:30:09,060
Oh, no, the did he thought that they never I'm thinking like of the great comebacks. It's like they were it's fairly similar time, right?

1580
02:30:09,060 --> 02:30:14,180
It was it was cyberpunk and no man's sky And I know a lot of people have looked at starfield

1581
02:30:14,500 --> 02:30:18,260
And been doing the meme of like poking it with a stick and being like, hey do the thing

1582
02:30:19,300 --> 02:30:25,380
It's not gonna happen. Okay. So binky draws says the most they can do is not let that situation happen again. No

1583
02:30:26,500 --> 02:30:29,060
People they were human and they made a mistake

1584
02:30:29,780 --> 02:30:33,220
And they're gonna still be human and they will still make mistakes

1585
02:30:33,220 --> 02:30:37,460
Ideally it's not the same and then but they might be different humans, but it might and it might be different human

1586
02:30:37,780 --> 02:30:43,380
Actually, not might it will be different. We're talking about a corporate entity. It's not all the same people

1587
02:30:43,540 --> 02:30:49,300
I can more or less guarantee that people have been hired people have been fired and people have quit in that period of time

1588
02:30:49,300 --> 02:30:52,180
Of course, I mean it's a gaming studio. So just layoffs

1589
02:30:52,820 --> 02:30:57,780
Have they done that? No, I don't think so. I don't know if uh, yeah, I don't know CDPR has done that infinite money

1590
02:30:57,780 --> 02:31:02,740
This isn't microsoft Dan. Oh, I'm so sorry. What are you talking about? You could just say any other

1591
02:31:03,620 --> 02:31:05,620
company

1592
02:31:06,660 --> 02:31:12,980
I think that's something that that in our in our fandom and in our passion sometimes even we we we get

1593
02:31:13,700 --> 02:31:17,780
I don't know we we get just sort of emotional about sometimes and we go well like

1594
02:31:18,580 --> 02:31:24,020
Well, like doing better should mean being perfect going forward and that's not gonna happen

1595
02:31:24,980 --> 02:31:30,900
That's never gonna happen for me. I promise you that it's never gonna happen for Linus media group or creator wearouts

1596
02:31:31,140 --> 02:31:34,660
We had a thing show up on the subreddit earlier this week where someone ordered

1597
02:31:34,900 --> 02:31:40,180
I think it was an extra large hoodie and they got a small and then they contacted customer service

1598
02:31:40,580 --> 02:31:43,700
And we offered to send a replacement and they got a small again

1599
02:31:44,260 --> 02:31:48,420
And they contacted customer service for a third time

1600
02:31:49,460 --> 02:31:52,340
And asked for a new hoodie and we sent them a small

1601
02:32:01,620 --> 02:32:07,540
Nobody would do that on purpose We need to like hand deliver them the right size or something

1602
02:32:08,980 --> 02:32:13,300
There's no there's no malice you know

1603
02:32:13,300 --> 02:32:17,060
But sometimes sometimes communication errors happen

1604
02:32:17,620 --> 02:32:24,900
Sometimes somebody didn't get their coffee when they pick an order and it was the same person who skipped their coffee like a week later

1605
02:32:25,300 --> 02:32:29,060
and sometimes sometimes an entire batch gets mislabeled and

1606
02:32:30,020 --> 02:32:34,580
You I I legitimately don't know what happened with that yet

1607
02:32:34,980 --> 02:32:38,500
We will find out fortunately It was a us customer within the us

1608
02:32:38,900 --> 02:32:45,460
And so like we can get it back to the dc maybe and find out if it was a mislabeling on the packaging or a mispick like

1609
02:32:46,900 --> 02:32:49,220
Things happen. I mean

1610
02:32:49,940 --> 02:32:53,140
um It's not good

1611
02:32:53,140 --> 02:32:58,260
Obviously, it would be better if everyone just you know bought a game that was perfect out of the box

1612
02:32:58,740 --> 02:33:03,860
Or bought a product and got the right thing in the mail. I'm at the third time at least

1613
02:33:05,220 --> 02:33:11,700
but like You know, I think what's more important is that you move forward

1614
02:33:12,500 --> 02:33:18,340
In good faith you try to fix things and I I think that's like that's such a that's like my corner

1615
02:33:18,420 --> 02:33:25,300
That's my cornerstone these days. That's the thing that I'm kind of clinging to is the concept of good faith engagement

1616
02:33:26,180 --> 02:33:30,420
as long as someone is Engaging in good faith, which means

1617
02:33:31,220 --> 02:33:36,680
With a genuine shared interest in reaching a mutually acceptable solution

1618
02:33:37,380 --> 02:33:43,300
Right, they actually want the problem resolved because sometimes you have people who don't actually want to resolve the problem. Yeah

1619
02:33:44,020 --> 02:33:52,340
They just want to be angry You know, they just wants to watch the world burn master Wayne. How's uh, how's triple small shirt guy

1620
02:33:52,980 --> 02:33:57,540
Doing they they basically I haven't checked back in but what they said was at this point

1621
02:33:57,540 --> 02:34:00,340
I think I just want to refund which we'd be we'll be totally fair

1622
02:34:00,900 --> 02:34:03,940
Totally totally fair. We'd rather get you your shirt

1623
02:34:04,740 --> 02:34:08,820
But if we can't then we'll settle for just you know a refund

1624
02:34:08,820 --> 02:34:12,820
We should fix it by sending them the correct size and also a small in the same box

1625
02:34:13,380 --> 02:34:15,380
Stop

1626
02:34:17,700 --> 02:34:26,020
Um What are you what is what Dan and adam? What are you guys talking about in the chat Dan says we should hand deliver a small the fourth time

1627
02:34:26,500 --> 02:34:30,660
No I also said he was trying to move the dead stock

1628
02:34:31,220 --> 02:34:35,140
Oh my god Did adam actually did he did he comment on this?

1629
02:34:35,940 --> 02:34:40,100
If someone would let me I would hand deliver it lol. Yeah, no adam. That's not

1630
02:34:40,900 --> 02:34:46,100
How these things work that would be really funny too take the xl label off an xl and put a small on it

1631
02:34:46,180 --> 02:34:52,740
Even though it is an xl shirt hand deliver it. Here's your here's your small. Yeah, buddy. Wow. You've really put on above in the beyond

1632
02:34:54,020 --> 02:34:56,020
Geez it's a bunch of sizes up

1633
02:34:57,620 --> 02:35:04,020
Oh, no, you know who'd end up being too small as if you try to send the correct size and a small that's funny. No, no

1634
02:35:06,980 --> 02:35:09,060
Um all right

1635
02:35:10,340 --> 02:35:14,740
What else we got here Uh

1636
02:35:15,300 --> 02:35:21,060
C. S. Of wacky stuff Oh, yeah, we could do that s2026 they put ai in all sorts

1637
02:35:21,620 --> 02:35:26,020
Of wacky stuff. Okay, and so we're supposed to rate out of

1638
02:35:26,660 --> 02:35:34,740
Five, okay, how appropriate we think the ai is okay. Why don't we start with the ai barista?

1639
02:35:35,860 --> 02:35:39,300
From bosh okay

1640
02:35:39,380 --> 02:35:42,980
bosh debuts alexa plus for coffee

1641
02:35:45,060 --> 02:35:51,380
Are you laughing Dan this is serious this is serious coffee shit here Dan besser

1642
02:35:56,100 --> 02:35:59,940
Is it just like i mean coffee does that to you but yeah bosh is new

1643
02:36:01,860 --> 02:36:06,100
Jesus I

1644
02:36:07,620 --> 02:36:11,220
Amazon button to order more toilet paper. Okay, stick that right on the front

1645
02:36:12,660 --> 02:36:21,540
Bosh is new ai powered personal ai barista for its 800 series espresso machines built on amazon's alexa plus brings

1646
02:36:22,500 --> 02:36:26,580
conversational control to coffee brewing but

1647
02:36:26,580 --> 02:36:31,860
Apparently the ai struggled a bit with simple tasks its predecessor handled with ease

1648
02:36:32,420 --> 02:36:37,300
All right out of five with five being the most appropriate. I don't drink coffee

1649
02:36:38,020 --> 02:36:42,660
But I think I'd give this like a two because I feel like it's just going to select from like

1650
02:36:43,060 --> 02:36:47,860
I don't know six different options that it can do and it looked like there was a screen on it so you could just

1651
02:36:48,900 --> 02:36:54,820
Poke the thing and I feel like people have this whole thing of like don't talk to me before I've had my coffee

1652
02:36:55,060 --> 02:36:59,380
And now they made up. No, it's a one people have a thing that says don't talk to me before I've had my coffee

1653
02:36:59,540 --> 02:37:04,740
And now they're making you talk to your coffee machine. I think it's a one. I'm giving it a one a one. Yep

1654
02:37:05,220 --> 02:37:08,580
I I feel like saying is don't talk to me before I've had my coffee

1655
02:37:08,740 --> 02:37:12,020
And then they're like, hey, you actually have to talk to things before you've had your coffee

1656
02:37:12,100 --> 02:37:16,580
I don't disagree with you. I'm just worried that you're painting yourself into a corner a little bit

1657
02:37:16,660 --> 02:37:21,860
I might be because there could be something else. It's so much dumber. It's a two. All right. It's a two. I'm going with one

1658
02:37:24,660 --> 02:37:28,660
I think I think it's a two because it looked like you could kind of override it

1659
02:37:29,140 --> 02:37:31,220
I think it's a one because of how much

1660
02:37:32,500 --> 02:37:38,500
How little I would need to change and to be clear. I don't think coffee. What's the bottom of this scale, but how

1661
02:37:39,300 --> 02:37:46,900
One to five. Okay. So one is the bottom. Yeah, how little how little I would need to alter what my like morning coffee experience would be

1662
02:37:47,300 --> 02:37:51,140
So I'm comparing this to how much better it would be to just have a preset

1663
02:37:52,900 --> 02:37:59,620
Like No, that's what I'm saying. Just press the button is like you saw me using the super automatic that we have in the writing lounge

1664
02:37:59,780 --> 02:38:03,620
Or the writing department area. Yeah, you just push a button. Yeah

1665
02:38:04,420 --> 02:38:08,660
But like there are different like versions of coffee it can make I assume

1666
02:38:08,740 --> 02:38:11,700
I was I was looking at a super automatic. You know, I'm in the market

1667
02:38:12,260 --> 02:38:15,300
Um, there's some of them can do 30 40 types of of coffee

1668
02:38:15,860 --> 02:38:20,740
Yeah, and most of them just do espresso plus some form of milk

1669
02:38:21,140 --> 02:38:23,700
Which is basically all you need like if it could do

1670
02:38:24,340 --> 02:38:26,820
It does it does that you don't have to talk to it

1671
02:38:28,900 --> 02:38:32,740
Yeah, is it little arc thing they put on top of the coffee. They're not going to be able to do that

1672
02:38:32,740 --> 02:38:37,300
Yeah, they won't be able to do that But if it could yeah, well, but then it wouldn't eat AI for that anyway

1673
02:38:37,540 --> 02:38:42,340
Okay, so it's a one then put a put a bird on it Alexa coffee machine. You know what I'm going with two

1674
02:38:43,140 --> 02:38:48,340
I don't want to paint myself into a corner. No, I'm just gonna one then. I'm just I'm just I think it's just actually stupid

1675
02:38:48,340 --> 02:38:52,020
I don't think anyone wants this. I think it's dumb. I was messing with you. I also think it's a one

1676
02:38:52,260 --> 02:38:57,700
All right, let's move on. Do you want to bring them up and then I'll do the I'll read the things. Uh, sure. Yeah

1677
02:38:58,260 --> 02:39:02,180
Samsung showcased AI

1678
02:39:02,180 --> 02:39:04,180
OLED concepts

1679
02:39:06,420 --> 02:39:09,380
Why like a cassette player and a turntable

1680
02:39:09,940 --> 02:39:16,580
Where the cassette uses AI to provide interactive display features and music recommendations

1681
02:39:17,060 --> 02:39:22,900
And the turntable integrates AI driven visuals on its circular OLED display

1682
02:39:24,660 --> 02:39:26,660
This one

1683
02:39:28,420 --> 02:39:31,700
One I'm gonna go with two

1684
02:39:32,820 --> 02:39:35,780
One I think this is a solid two

1685
02:39:35,940 --> 02:39:42,500
Because unlike the coffee maker where it serves absolutely no purpose that anyone has ever asked for ever

1686
02:39:43,460 --> 02:39:49,220
They're actually attempting to do something is kind of remind it kind of reminds me of like a laser rock show

1687
02:39:49,860 --> 02:39:54,820
But way dumber So that makes it

1688
02:39:54,820 --> 02:39:56,820
Makes it not quite a one

1689
02:39:58,020 --> 02:40:02,180
All right, do you want to bring up the next one? Yeah, sure. I'm trying to figure out what this thing even is, but

1690
02:40:02,740 --> 02:40:06,500
Go the govi life smart

1691
02:40:06,500 --> 02:40:10,900
Nugget ice maker That is a very um

1692
02:40:10,900 --> 02:40:16,180
That is a very hey English isn't my first language word to use to describe anything to do with food

1693
02:40:16,660 --> 02:40:22,020
Nobody wants other than chicken nuggets. Nobody wants a nugget of anything anywhere near any food

1694
02:40:22,900 --> 02:40:27,780
So the the smart nugget ice maker pro introduced at ces 2026

1695
02:40:28,340 --> 02:40:31,540
Uses ai noise guard

1696
02:40:31,540 --> 02:40:35,780
trained to detect freeze ups and automatically defrost

1697
02:40:36,180 --> 02:40:39,220
So the machine runs more quietly and efficiently

1698
02:40:41,860 --> 02:40:44,580
Oh my god, I think

1699
02:40:46,020 --> 02:40:50,980
I think This is a four for me

1700
02:40:54,020 --> 02:40:56,820
Imagine how much more ice cream

1701
02:40:57,380 --> 02:41:02,660
McDonald's would have sold if they had an ai to detect when their ice cream machine isn't working

1702
02:41:04,020 --> 02:41:09,220
Imagine it now imagine that probably that wouldn't work anyway because that wasn't really the issue

1703
02:41:10,900 --> 02:41:15,940
The thing for me is like if this is if this is just modern branding stuff

1704
02:41:16,580 --> 02:41:19,860
And it's really just you know, there's a little bit of machine learning in there

1705
02:41:21,060 --> 02:41:26,260
All right, it might be cool. I think if they're like trying to slap llms in this thing, it's stupid

1706
02:41:26,980 --> 02:41:29,380
But I think I think it might actually just be

1707
02:41:30,100 --> 02:41:34,180
Okay, we need the stupid trendy words, but there's actually just like a little bit of

1708
02:41:34,820 --> 02:41:43,140
Machine learning in here, which is like pretty all right But if you if you want me to talk to my freaking ice maker, no, I don't think there's which I don't think they're doing

1709
02:41:43,380 --> 02:41:46,500
Yeah, so like I think this might actually just be a branding thing

1710
02:41:47,700 --> 02:41:52,420
Because like their actual name for it is the gov life smart nugget ice maker pro

1711
02:41:53,620 --> 02:41:55,620
They didn't throw ai in the name

1712
02:41:56,660 --> 02:42:03,220
They did put smart in there although admittedly that's more iot era. I'll take I'll take smart right now over ai

1713
02:42:03,460 --> 02:42:06,260
I didn't like smart when it was around. It's like Windows 8.1

1714
02:42:08,020 --> 02:42:10,260
It's amazing how good the phantom menace looks

1715
02:42:11,140 --> 02:42:16,740
In retrospect. Yeah, now that the now that the new things exist jar jar banks. You know what?

1716
02:42:17,460 --> 02:42:19,460
Not that bad. Maybe he was okay

1717
02:42:21,060 --> 02:42:27,620
All right next up g e's new smart refrigerator with kitchen assistant

1718
02:42:28,100 --> 02:42:33,940
Combines a built-in barcode scanner that automatically adds groceries to a digital list

1719
02:42:34,340 --> 02:42:39,140
With an ai powered camera system for tracking contents and reducing food waste

1720
02:42:39,540 --> 02:42:46,100
Alongside voice and touch controls to help manage shopping meal planning and inventory

1721
02:42:50,180 --> 02:42:52,180
What do you got

1722
02:42:53,780 --> 02:42:56,740
I wouldn't buy one because of data tracking and

1723
02:42:57,540 --> 02:43:05,540
Data invasion all that kind of stuff If i'm purely if I completely ignore all of those very valid very large concerns

1724
02:43:05,940 --> 02:43:09,540
It's probably like a five. I give this one a three. Okay

1725
02:43:10,180 --> 02:43:13,380
Because I would want something that does all of that stuff

1726
02:43:14,100 --> 02:43:22,820
But this one won't Yeah, okay. I mean that's fair. I so I was going on the assumption that all of the insane privacy concerns are not a thing

1727
02:43:22,980 --> 02:43:26,100
Yeah, and I was going on the assumption that it worked both of which are

1728
02:43:27,060 --> 02:43:33,700
Not okay. No way. Yeah. Yeah, there's no way if I had a fridge that legitimately was like, hey

1729
02:43:34,260 --> 02:43:40,740
Here's everything that's in here. You could make this if it was doing all of this locally, which it's for sure not

1730
02:43:40,980 --> 02:43:43,860
I don't even care if it was doing all of this. I don't care

1731
02:43:45,140 --> 02:43:50,020
Why you could just list those things out give it to grok if it wants to make porn of my celery stalks then

1732
02:43:50,820 --> 02:43:54,500
Let it do it If I never if I never had to think it's not the problem

1733
02:43:54,980 --> 02:43:57,700
I don't care. I still don't okay. There's like big problems with this

1734
02:43:58,020 --> 02:44:01,940
I can detect illnesses and sell that data and like there's lots of issues

1735
02:44:02,580 --> 02:44:05,700
I would be over it if it simplified meal planning. That's my line

1736
02:44:07,220 --> 02:44:10,980
Meal planning sucks. It's like my least favorite thing in my entire life

1737
02:44:11,620 --> 02:44:17,860
you can already use LLM systems for meal planning, but I won't because it's not built into my fridge

1738
02:44:18,420 --> 02:44:24,260
That's dumb if this actually worked If this actually worked and I just it would just like

1739
02:44:24,980 --> 02:44:32,100
crap out Like a thing that I could make and just give me instructions and I made it and it was delicious and nutritious

1740
02:44:32,820 --> 02:44:36,980
You know what, you know, you know how you you've talked about how you you don't have like a cook

1741
02:44:37,860 --> 02:44:43,220
Yeah, I don't you should almost have like someone come in and just look at what you've got and make you recipes

1742
02:44:43,860 --> 02:44:49,540
And then have them leave That would be that would be that would be the most unhinged thing ever

1743
02:44:50,260 --> 02:44:54,260
Well, we could get advanced on this. What are you guys even talking about? That's not advanced his job

1744
02:44:54,340 --> 02:44:59,220
He's an executive assistant not a personal assistant. They're not the same thing. Are you not an executive?

1745
02:44:59,460 --> 02:45:04,900
If you if you had a higher output, then it's his job. This would be a thing. Oh my god. Um, anyway

1746
02:45:05,620 --> 02:45:09,620
Yeah, it's not gonna I mean it honestly

1747
02:45:09,780 --> 02:45:13,620
might be able to suggest recipes

1748
02:45:13,620 --> 02:45:18,980
I don't think so because it would have to have It would it would have to properly track

1749
02:45:19,540 --> 02:45:23,860
Age of the it would have to properly track what's in it. That stuff is concerning the age of it

1750
02:45:23,940 --> 02:45:27,540
The age and date stuff and the consumption of it. What about the stuff you don't put in the fridge?

1751
02:45:27,620 --> 02:45:32,580
Like does it know you have rice? Yeah, or beans. Yeah, yeah, like it's yeah, so it just sucks

1752
02:45:32,900 --> 02:45:36,180
Yeah, so if it could do its claim and it wasn't obviously

1753
02:45:36,660 --> 02:45:41,460
Obviously making a decent amount of money selling all of your data that I think it's really cool actually

1754
02:45:41,780 --> 02:45:47,780
Yeah, but it is making a bunch of money selling all of your data, which is like a hard stop for a lot of people and

1755
02:45:49,860 --> 02:45:53,700
Mostly for dance reason to be completely honest. It's not gonna work. Anyways. No, it's not gonna work

1756
02:45:53,780 --> 02:45:58,020
So like so I'm averaging my scores the theory. Oh, yes

1757
02:45:58,980 --> 02:46:02,100
Okay, sure. Then yeah, it's I think it's like a two

1758
02:46:02,980 --> 02:46:06,260
All right All right, next up

1759
02:46:06,260 --> 02:46:10,420
lip pros Ami desktop ai companion

1760
02:46:11,380 --> 02:46:18,820
Uses an eight inch curved OLED screen and an integrated ai needed to be that big to display

1761
02:46:20,580 --> 02:46:23,380
A 3d character that tracks your eyes

1762
02:46:24,260 --> 02:46:33,060
senses gestures and expressions Interacts contextually to offer an empathetic presence on your desk and is marketed

1763
02:46:33,700 --> 02:46:38,420
And I kid you not is marketed as an ai soulmate

1764
02:46:40,420 --> 02:46:42,420
I

1765
02:46:49,060 --> 02:46:51,060
I've got my score ready

1766
02:46:52,660 --> 02:46:55,060
Can we like break the scale? I don't know

1767
02:46:58,580 --> 02:47:00,580
It makes me so sad man

1768
02:47:01,700 --> 02:47:05,220
It's so dark. It's so dark for humanity

1769
02:47:06,900 --> 02:47:13,620
There has to be a one My god, I'm a two and the reason the reason I am averaging

1770
02:47:14,180 --> 02:47:21,300
I am averaging the usefulness of ai in in this product, which is that that's the exercise

1771
02:47:21,860 --> 02:47:26,020
And I think that yeah, I didn't need to be like an interactive desk soulmate

1772
02:47:26,260 --> 02:47:30,820
Probably would need some kind of LLM integration to be even remotely interactive

1773
02:47:31,700 --> 02:47:37,220
With the negative four of how much I feel this product should exist and anyone should use it

1774
02:47:37,300 --> 02:47:41,380
I ended up at a two God, well one and a half which I rounded to two

1775
02:47:42,340 --> 02:47:45,380
Following rounding rules. It is worth pointing out by the way that razor

1776
02:47:46,020 --> 02:47:52,340
Um, just because you sponsor the WAN Show doesn't mean we aren't also going to bring up your cringe desktop ai assistant

1777
02:47:52,340 --> 02:47:56,260
Oh, I was talking to mark about those before the show. I heard about this. What is it called?

1778
02:47:56,500 --> 02:47:59,700
He suggested that we get them for the editors instead of putting in the sad lights

1779
02:48:01,140 --> 02:48:09,140
This is making an a like Yeah, razor. Can you send 15 of them people will buy that the marketing is slightly less cringe

1780
02:48:09,220 --> 02:48:13,060
But the fact that it's a waifu is slightly more cringe

1781
02:48:13,780 --> 02:48:21,140
so And apparently One thing that's cool is you will apparently be able to use whichever LLM you want

1782
02:48:21,780 --> 02:48:25,300
A thing that's a little less cool is right now. The one that it works with is grok

1783
02:48:25,780 --> 02:48:28,580
Which has had some problems lately

1784
02:48:29,300 --> 02:48:34,420
um To put it mildly. It might not be problematic for the people that are buying this

1785
02:48:42,180 --> 02:48:44,180
Which is why

1786
02:48:45,940 --> 02:48:52,020
Oh my god, look get rid of it. Get rid of it. I can't anymore. Wow

1787
02:48:56,020 --> 02:48:59,380
Get rid of it. I'm doing it. I'm doing it. Okay

1788
02:49:01,620 --> 02:49:07,460
Moving on I want to bring up the glide. Yeah, it's up glide has unveiled

1789
02:49:08,020 --> 02:49:11,780
A smart hair clipper with an integrated ai

1790
02:49:12,340 --> 02:49:16,580
Stylist that uses your smartphone camera and app to map your head

1791
02:49:17,140 --> 02:49:24,260
Coach you step by step and adjust both blade length and motion in real time to guide haircuts

1792
02:49:24,820 --> 02:49:28,900
and prevent mistakes

1793
02:49:31,140 --> 02:49:37,460
Disrupting the 50 billion dollar grooming market. Oh, yeah, all those not extremely highly paid

1794
02:49:39,060 --> 02:49:41,380
Barbers we definitely need to disrupt them

1795
02:49:42,180 --> 02:49:45,060
That's that's very valiant of you. Good job

1796
02:49:46,260 --> 02:49:48,580
Um, I I think it does definitely

1797
02:49:49,700 --> 02:49:57,940
Okay, if we go with the assuming it works angle You're selling the data on your skull. I guess which doesn't really matter weird, but probably doesn't matter

1798
02:49:58,420 --> 02:50:02,020
Um, if we go with the angle that it works, I think it has quite a bit of utility

1799
02:50:02,580 --> 02:50:06,340
Um Is it going to work?

1800
02:50:06,580 --> 02:50:10,820
Would the errors with it be really hilarious? Yeah, I think so. Yeah

1801
02:50:11,620 --> 02:50:13,620
I think so there's a funny factor

1802
02:50:14,740 --> 02:50:17,060
I think that I'm going to go with a one

1803
02:50:18,180 --> 02:50:24,340
Really? Yeah, I'm a one on this Why is that? Because the ai in the case of the fridge

1804
02:50:24,660 --> 02:50:28,260
There's a real value to the ai being built into the fridge

1805
02:50:28,980 --> 02:50:34,020
with this Yeah, it really does not need to be in the clippers. It does not need to be in the clippers really be your phone

1806
02:50:34,020 --> 02:50:39,060
Especially with like depth scanning with an iphone. Yeah. Yeah, so it should really be in your phone. Yeah

1807
02:50:39,700 --> 02:50:46,100
Yeah, the clippers like actually too close to interact with in any meaningful way to provide any kind of instruction

1808
02:50:46,100 --> 02:50:51,060
It was just like a You know you buy the app and you put a phone mount on your mirror

1809
02:50:51,300 --> 02:50:54,100
And you put your phone there and then it like guides you

1810
02:50:54,820 --> 02:51:01,700
That would probably be fine Adam from uh from cw says in Floatplane chat. I would like to ban

1811
02:51:02,340 --> 02:51:05,940
Silicon Valley bros from saying the word disrupt. Yeah

1812
02:51:06,660 --> 02:51:12,020
It like kind of was fine and then now when they're going after industries like that. It's like, I don't know. Leave it alone

1813
02:51:12,740 --> 02:51:17,140
All right next up multiple

1814
02:51:17,140 --> 02:51:22,100
ai smart toilets samsung's

1815
02:51:22,740 --> 02:51:25,940
These are devices that use at hem cameras

1816
02:51:27,220 --> 02:51:34,820
Optical and acoustics does this mean acoustic sensors. There will be pictures of my what it was that it's a

1817
02:51:36,900 --> 02:51:41,780
Hold on. Hold on. Hold on. I'm thinking. Hold on. Let me get let me let me get there. Let me get there. Okay. Okay

1818
02:51:42,500 --> 02:51:48,340
These devices will use cameras optical slash acoustic sensors acoustic sensors

1819
02:51:50,100 --> 02:51:53,380
I was waiting for him to hear that they want to hear my farts, dude

1820
02:51:53,940 --> 02:52:00,580
I want I want a database of my farts now and machine learning to analyze urine and stool samples

1821
02:52:01,140 --> 02:52:07,860
Uh or stool patterns Detect health related changes and provide insights or alerts via companion apps

1822
02:52:08,100 --> 02:52:13,300
They should have the poop olympics. You know how divers have that whole thing about how they're supposed to make a very small splash

1823
02:52:16,580 --> 02:52:18,580
It should be

1824
02:52:20,100 --> 02:52:26,260
Why would I need that? It's a five. It's a five. Five definitely just for the chance that we can have the poop olympics

1825
02:52:26,500 --> 02:52:29,220
It is totally worth it sell pictures of your butt

1826
02:52:30,500 --> 02:52:36,980
Not even sell it give pictures of your butt away to toilet companies. We need we need this needs to be like social media

1827
02:52:36,980 --> 02:52:45,220
There needs to be like leaderboards. Yeah fart book from letter Kenny. Yeah, this one is more complicated for me than the fridge

1828
02:52:45,860 --> 02:52:49,940
Because with the fridge, I don't think that for me personally

1829
02:52:50,420 --> 02:52:55,780
I don't think there's much that you would glean from my eating habits that would tell you much about my predispositions

1830
02:52:56,340 --> 02:53:00,580
Um, I think that the the capacity to use totally would by the way

1831
02:53:00,580 --> 02:53:07,380
It would tell us some stuff It would talk about when you're in various emotional states and blah blah blah blah and then they'll target you with advertising like

1832
02:53:07,380 --> 02:53:10,580
It's super a thing for most people maybe

1833
02:53:11,060 --> 02:53:15,220
But I make fun of you a lot if you're eating nothing, but like chicken breast

1834
02:53:16,020 --> 02:53:21,220
I am a very predictable eater as well. You will learn basically nothing having a rough day. Would you have extra cereal?

1835
02:53:22,180 --> 02:53:27,380
No I'm serious. I'm actually serious right now. I've seen you binge on some pickles

1836
02:53:28,260 --> 02:53:31,700
Sure, but like then I will go a year without eating a single pickle

1837
02:53:31,700 --> 02:53:34,180
Which has nothing to do with my emotional state like I just

1838
02:53:34,820 --> 02:53:37,780
I I promise you that and I know that everyone would say this

1839
02:53:38,180 --> 02:53:41,380
And maybe that's a personal thing and maybe you're right. I promise you it would tell you nothing

1840
02:53:41,380 --> 02:53:45,780
But for a huge amount of people, which is I think more of what we're judging this and that's fair. No, no

1841
02:53:46,900 --> 02:53:50,820
Not necessarily. So this is for the self. I'm saying for you're right in general

1842
02:53:50,900 --> 02:53:57,540
But for me personally the fridge thing is way less of a concern for me because you would you would not learn that

1843
02:53:57,540 --> 02:54:00,980
I'm about your fridge is for your family. This is true

1844
02:54:01,940 --> 02:54:06,500
But by the time any of this works my kids will be moved out. No. Oh

1845
02:54:07,380 --> 02:54:09,380
Uh, what if what if they're having um

1846
02:54:10,660 --> 02:54:13,700
Cranberry juice, what if one of your daughters is having cranberry juice?

1847
02:54:14,820 --> 02:54:21,060
Well, like us by the time my daughter is drinking from my fridge like by the time these ai fridges work

1848
02:54:21,620 --> 02:54:26,500
My daughter's going to be drinking cranberry juice out of her own fridge. There's no way it's happening in the next like five to 10 years

1849
02:54:27,060 --> 02:54:33,380
No, no shot Either way my point is I think that's bold. You think so. I think that's bold

1850
02:54:33,460 --> 02:54:38,740
You think you think it'll work in the next few years for literally just that scenario that I described of

1851
02:54:41,140 --> 02:54:45,140
Person of certain gender consuming certain thing

1852
02:54:46,740 --> 02:54:54,260
Lining that up with certain types of advertising I just don't think I wouldn't be that surprised if that's like soon. You think so you think it'll actually work

1853
02:54:54,420 --> 02:54:58,980
It's a specific reference. Yeah, it's like to indicate that you have a urinary tract infection probably

1854
02:54:59,540 --> 02:55:03,380
Um, unless you normally happen to drink cranberry juice. Um

1855
02:55:04,740 --> 02:55:12,340
And for men too by the way Um cranberry juice cranberry juice is also just good. Yeah, but like it's also associated with certain things

1856
02:55:12,500 --> 02:55:14,500
But also it's good for UTIs

1857
02:55:18,020 --> 02:55:25,620
Um, okay, you're making me come around on a little bit. However, however, I do stand behind that the the poop

1858
02:55:26,180 --> 02:55:33,780
is going to have Information about your diet and also the functioning of your body one is very egregious

1859
02:55:34,100 --> 02:55:39,860
Yeah, we've talked about this on wham before that the fridge will not totally the fridge bothers me still a lot less

1860
02:55:40,340 --> 02:55:44,980
Yeah, so so this one Um, however, however

1861
02:55:45,300 --> 02:55:48,740
However This one still ends up

1862
02:55:49,140 --> 02:55:53,700
being a three for me Because the necessity of it actually being

1863
02:55:54,340 --> 02:55:56,660
Included in the toilet for it to function

1864
02:55:57,380 --> 02:56:02,900
To me is very high However, how much I want it in my life is a one

1865
02:56:05,300 --> 02:56:14,900
Because I this this one Yeah, this one. I'm like deeply concerned that if you you take like one poop that has blood in it or something

1866
02:56:15,380 --> 02:56:19,060
And you're somewhere where there's poor legislation

1867
02:56:19,460 --> 02:56:23,780
Governing this and your insurance company can like before you even know there's a problem

1868
02:56:24,260 --> 02:56:29,380
Like cut you off if it can if it can tell you are super sick and you open the uber app

1869
02:56:31,220 --> 02:56:34,660
Nice gonna charge you more for a car. Yep. Yep

1870
02:56:36,580 --> 02:56:43,300
Oh All right, what else we got? Ah, yes last one last one and then we're and then we're over this okay

1871
02:56:44,900 --> 02:56:50,020
Samsung has a whole lineup of AI kitchen appliances including a fridge and a wine cellar

1872
02:56:50,580 --> 02:56:54,580
So for the vino files, which apparently the more correct term is actually

1873
02:56:55,540 --> 02:56:58,500
We know files. Oh, we know files. Whatever. It doesn't matter. The point is

1874
02:56:58,980 --> 02:57:02,660
Samsung has got the bespoke AI wine cellar

1875
02:57:03,060 --> 02:57:07,460
Which uses AI vision with built-in cameras to recognize wine labels

1876
02:57:08,020 --> 02:57:13,940
Track each bottle's location And update a smart things AI wine manager

1877
02:57:15,300 --> 02:57:18,740
The notes say sheesh. I just wanted to get a little drunk

1878
02:57:20,980 --> 02:57:23,860
I actually think this one

1879
02:57:25,620 --> 02:57:28,420
Assumption that it works seems like a five or a four

1880
02:57:28,900 --> 02:57:33,940
If it doesn't work now, this one will work a lot faster than the like general fridge one we've been talking about. Yeah

1881
02:57:34,260 --> 02:57:41,220
Um, because it's like way more specified Yeah, if it knows its own layout and everything you're putting into it is a particular shape

1882
02:57:41,780 --> 02:57:46,660
This seems like it could it could pretty much be like amazon just walk out

1883
02:57:47,140 --> 02:57:50,340
Like go-store technology, but like way way way easier

1884
02:57:50,660 --> 02:57:57,220
Speaking of which there is a further correction to our correction on the amazon go-store. Oh, yes. Yeah last week

1885
02:57:57,380 --> 02:58:02,740
I feel dumb. I should have noticed this. Yeah, just walk out is totally still a thing. They're just deploying it differently

1886
02:58:02,820 --> 02:58:05,700
So when I said cancel, I just meant that like particular

1887
02:58:06,500 --> 02:58:10,180
Implementation of it. Oh, I meant the other thing. Oh, which other thing?

1888
02:58:10,420 --> 02:58:14,180
Uh, are we done this? Yeah, we might as well transition into that. We're done that

1889
02:58:14,660 --> 02:58:20,020
The the viral reddit post about food delivery apps was just AI slop. Yeah, I'm annoyed with myself

1890
02:58:20,020 --> 02:58:26,100
I should have noticed this. Yep. Uh, we we talked about a and I usually pride myself on noticing these things decently

1891
02:58:26,100 --> 02:58:28,900
Well, and this was uh, I'm I'm upset with myself

1892
02:58:29,380 --> 02:58:35,860
We talked about a viral reddit post last week on wanshow the post claimed to be from a developer for a major food delivery app

1893
02:58:35,940 --> 02:58:40,180
Claiming that priority fees and driver benefit fees go 100 to the company

1894
02:58:40,980 --> 02:58:45,780
The driver seeing none of it turns out even though this post got almost 90,000 up doots

1895
02:58:46,340 --> 02:58:49,540
4.8 thousand comments and even a thousand pieces of reddit gold

1896
02:58:49,780 --> 02:58:54,500
It was AI generated when a reporter had reached out for further comment to find out more information

1897
02:58:54,500 --> 02:58:59,940
The original reddit posters sent back more information including their photo id and documents, but those were

1898
02:59:01,140 --> 02:59:05,620
AI generated when questioned about it the reddit user blocked and eventually deleted their accounts

1899
02:59:06,580 --> 02:59:12,740
They used for they the reddit user blocked that person and then eventually deleted their own accounts that they used for communication

1900
02:59:15,940 --> 02:59:19,620
Rough there was a lot of signs that this was kind of bs. I think it had

1901
02:59:20,500 --> 02:59:25,060
Nuggets of truth that I wanted to be true. So I fell for it, which is

1902
02:59:25,700 --> 02:59:31,700
Exactly how this whole thing works. So, you know, yeah, I feel dumb too constant vigilance

1903
02:59:31,940 --> 02:59:37,060
I slipped up need to be More on top of it because this is just the world we're gonna live in now

1904
02:59:37,220 --> 02:59:45,220
And we're gonna slip up again And we're gonna do our best to put put better safeguards in place so that we don't we will correct when we can

1905
02:59:45,300 --> 02:59:50,020
And we'll we're just gonna we're just gonna have to power through it boys because that's all we got

1906
02:59:50,420 --> 02:59:53,540
Yep, we just got each other and powering through it. Yep

1907
02:59:54,580 --> 02:59:58,980
Yeah, but yeah Oh, oh speaking of having each other

1924
03:01:38,740 --> 03:01:41,380
I actually didn't know that we finalized those. Let me go all

1925
03:01:43,620 --> 03:01:50,260
There's an upcoming lands button and it shows these all right needs a key all the way through 2026

03:01:50,660 --> 03:01:57,140
Okay. Oh, it says they're tentative. Okay. Okay. Oh, I didn't read that line. Cool. Well, I'm glad I'm glad someone did

1927
03:02:01,220 --> 03:02:03,220
Cool

1928
03:02:06,340 --> 03:02:11,700
There's a no notes discord is confidently filed for an initial public offering or ipo

1929
03:02:13,060 --> 03:02:16,020
Confidentially, what did I say confidently? Nice

1930
03:02:21,220 --> 03:02:27,940
Then were you live when you also said no normally I I don't correct. Oh, yeah, okay

1931
03:02:28,500 --> 03:02:33,620
I mean, you know, if we're just wrong, it's probably not a terrible idea. I fixed it for you and now it's truth

1932
03:02:36,740 --> 03:02:38,740
He changed the the topic title

1933
03:02:41,620 --> 03:02:47,620
Never wrong that is a good. Yeah, I like that line that will be how I manage from from here forth. Okay

1934
03:02:48,340 --> 03:02:55,780
Can do no ever Uh-huh if I do sure it's like uh kim jong-un if I do something wrong, it's just the right way to do it now

1935
03:02:56,740 --> 03:03:03,220
Yeah, I like that. It's a good good strategy. We're all about rocket science. We're all about dictators here in the west. Yeah

1936
03:03:03,620 --> 03:03:09,620
Yeah, yeah, yeah Can you think of an example of a company that serves a penis potato have to do with anything Dan? What?

1937
03:03:10,820 --> 03:03:15,060
Everything what he said we're all about dictators. Oh

1938
03:03:18,580 --> 03:03:20,580
Sorry

1939
03:03:22,180 --> 03:03:27,460
Can you think of an example of a company that serves a niche or loyal fan base then became publicly traded

1940
03:03:27,700 --> 03:03:30,820
And actually had its regular customers benefit as a result

1941
03:03:32,340 --> 03:03:36,100
Chat you're gonna have to help us out with this Yeah

1942
03:03:36,100 --> 03:03:40,740
For sure gonna need help with that Okay, that serves that serves a niche

1943
03:03:41,060 --> 03:03:47,140
Or loyal fan base. Okay, then became publicly traded and its regular customers

1944
03:03:47,620 --> 03:03:51,860
benefited Cipula says amazon

1945
03:03:53,460 --> 03:03:58,180
No You got it the long term. It's got to be long term buddy. Uh-uh

1946
03:03:58,900 --> 03:04:01,620
Dude amazon is so in s**tified now

1947
03:04:03,700 --> 03:04:07,140
Yeah, I don't think we're gonna come up with anything the next discussion question is what do

1948
03:04:08,260 --> 03:04:11,300
Should we do should we do a dictator's shirt?

1949
03:04:12,100 --> 03:04:16,100
And it's just like a potato in the shape of a penis with like a hitler stash

1950
03:04:16,340 --> 03:04:20,180
Would that be on brand for us? How do you get across at its potato? I guess you can show like yeah

1951
03:04:20,180 --> 03:04:22,180
It could look like a potato root growth or whatever

1952
03:04:24,100 --> 03:04:30,100
Probably not probably for the best that we don't okay. Anyway, sorry. Um, we do well as a sticker or an enamel pin though

1953
03:04:36,820 --> 03:04:41,140
Look at no key in public Stop him

1954
03:04:41,780 --> 03:04:48,740
He was so fast. Sorry you guys have to no he's just like I I dot dot dot and then chat help

1955
03:04:53,700 --> 03:04:56,740
No, no key has to put that in the timestamps now

1956
03:04:58,820 --> 03:05:00,820
No key has to type penis potato

1957
03:05:02,340 --> 03:05:07,140
Penis potato conversation we have to have it. There's no way to avoid it because that's what we're talking about no key

1958
03:05:07,460 --> 03:05:16,420
That is Would it would it be flaccid? Look the answer is it would probably look better if the answer is that boiled

1959
03:05:17,060 --> 03:05:22,500
The answer is that I don't I don't have to do it. I choose to do it to you

1960
03:05:28,340 --> 03:05:31,540
Riley told me off for doing bad chapters

1961
03:05:35,460 --> 03:05:38,740
I don't think I could imagine riley telling off anyone come on

1962
03:05:38,900 --> 03:05:44,260
Does the just to keep the topic going long enough that it has to be its own section. Yeah, does the does the penis potato

1963
03:05:44,740 --> 03:05:48,020
Is it is it veiny Oh

1964
03:05:48,020 --> 03:05:53,620
Because you do get some potatoes that'll have like a bit of a thing going on. Yeah, I could I could see that or not peeled

1965
03:05:54,020 --> 03:05:58,180
Well, not peeled. I think not. Yeah, not peeled for sure like European potatoes

1966
03:05:58,420 --> 03:06:01,620
But like should it have like a like a hole in the end

1967
03:06:02,420 --> 03:06:06,500
Or like Could it have a couple turnips at the bottom? There's potato eyes

1968
03:06:07,460 --> 03:06:13,940
Oh, interesting. So it's like a cornucopia that makes uh a majestic potato schlong

1969
03:06:23,780 --> 03:06:27,380
Okay, um, I think that's enough. I think I think that's a section of the show

1970
03:06:27,380 --> 03:06:30,420
What do you expect shareholders desired changes for discord might be?

1971
03:06:31,380 --> 03:06:35,700
More money or just more users get some of that internet money. Yeah

1972
03:06:36,660 --> 03:06:41,140
All right, we kind of talked about panther lake already earlier. I like panther lake. That was one of our topics

1973
03:06:42,100 --> 03:06:53,300
We haven't really talked about ces much Or AMD much from ces. Um, did you pay attention to what they were up to? Nope. Yeah, so the rumored 99 50 x 3d 2

1974
03:06:53,700 --> 03:07:01,620
Uh did not get announced. Oh Yeah, so instead we get a 98 50 x 3d, which is a quad core, but 400 megahertz maximum boost faster

1975
03:07:02,580 --> 03:07:11,060
Uh, cool. And if you compare to like what 9800 x 3ds could do with like pbo, it's it the gap gets even smaller

1976
03:07:11,380 --> 03:07:15,700
Yeah, um, no, I'd no no part pricing, which is ominous

1977
03:07:16,260 --> 03:07:20,180
Uh, there's one thing I'm pretty excited about. Strix halo got some new skews

1978
03:07:20,340 --> 03:07:27,460
So that chip that no one can get that no one can get supply of and even fewer people can afford. Yeah

1979
03:07:28,180 --> 03:07:33,060
Uh Now has skews that have fewer CPU cores, but still the full GPU

1980
03:07:33,780 --> 03:07:36,980
Okay, so for the like dozen people who

1981
03:07:37,860 --> 03:07:41,220
Want that Of which I happen to be one of them

1982
03:07:41,460 --> 03:07:49,940
That's pretty cool because I've really enjoyed I i'm i'm like deep into claire obscure now on my gpd win 5 and it's just

1983
03:07:50,180 --> 03:07:54,020
I don't think you've mentioned it like 12 times what the last two shows. It's such an outstanding

1984
03:07:54,500 --> 03:08:01,460
Gaming experience. It's like a 40 60 mobile, but like in a handheld form factor. It's like I love it. That's really cool

1985
03:08:01,620 --> 03:08:03,620
Yeah, it's super cool. Um

1986
03:08:06,900 --> 03:08:13,380
That was it Uh NVIDIA's stuff should we talk about that? Oh, right. Yeah, I was going to talk about dlc

1987
03:08:13,380 --> 03:08:20,020
Yes, four and a half Okay, so this was like the first time that I can remember that NVIDIA has undersold something

1988
03:08:20,740 --> 03:08:28,180
Hmm When they so when we were talking they've ever sold they've oversold literally everything since the 1000 series launch

1989
03:08:28,740 --> 03:08:33,300
In my view really 3000 series was pretty sick. You don't think it was

1990
03:08:34,020 --> 03:08:41,380
they Fibbed some stuff in their keynotes 3000. I think the one thing that you could go after them for 3000 series was that

1991
03:08:42,980 --> 03:08:49,460
8k gaming on the 3090 while technically true. We've we tried it it worked

1992
03:08:49,620 --> 03:08:55,700
It was like Unnecessary and I don't think that's a fib so much as a misread of the direction the market was going

1993
03:08:56,500 --> 03:09:01,780
um Like there's a lot of games that you could game at 8k on a 3090

1994
03:09:02,100 --> 03:09:05,700
um 3000 series pretty sick. I don't know man

1995
03:09:06,420 --> 03:09:11,780
Chad if you guys if you like I'm I'm they're still just talking about like president richard tater over here

1996
03:09:12,900 --> 03:09:17,780
Maybe I'm uh conflating the price jumps around that time. Well, right, but that was msrp stuff

1997
03:09:17,860 --> 03:09:26,500
That was partially NVIDIA's You know participation, but also all I know is that I was frustrated with every one of them at launch. It was

1998
03:09:27,860 --> 03:09:33,220
Pretty great. Okay. Cool. All right fair enough. So so dls s 4.5. So dls s 4.5

1999
03:09:33,220 --> 03:09:36,900
So when we're doing the pre-brief they're walking us through it and they're basically like yeah, so

2000
03:09:37,700 --> 03:09:44,980
We think this is as big a leap forward as dls s 4.0 was in terms of image quality compared to what came before

2001
03:09:45,700 --> 03:09:48,500
And um, it's trained on like five times

2002
03:09:49,060 --> 03:09:54,500
The the data it's or five times the compute or something. We know whatever metric they're using

2003
03:09:55,940 --> 03:10:04,260
And it is like in many cases closer to ground truth than what we call native rendering these days, which

2004
03:10:04,980 --> 03:10:12,420
Is actually not compared to the like many many many many many samples that they're taking for their for their

2005
03:10:13,140 --> 03:10:19,780
Reference images that they're using for comparison to to benchmark the the image quality of their model

2006
03:10:20,420 --> 03:10:23,860
and Like our first question was

2007
03:10:23,940 --> 03:10:26,580
Okay, if I'm to believe any of this that you're saying

2008
03:10:27,140 --> 03:10:32,900
Then why did you not call it dls s 5? Yeah with the second gen transformer model and they basically went well

2009
03:10:33,780 --> 03:10:38,820
It's a second generation of the transformer model. We're not actually adding anything new

2010
03:10:39,380 --> 03:10:43,780
We have more multi-frame gen, but it's just more multi-frame gen

2011
03:10:44,340 --> 03:10:49,220
So that's actually quite logical. We arbitrarily picked 4.5. Sure

2012
03:10:49,780 --> 03:10:56,500
um And that kind of got me going. Okay. Well, then there's no way that it's going to be as big of an improvement as they claim

2013
03:10:56,500 --> 03:11:02,820
That it is because there's no way that NVIDIA would have missed an opportunity to market something as

2014
03:11:03,460 --> 03:11:06,980
The best thing ever you need more green in your life

2015
03:11:07,540 --> 03:11:15,380
Like there's no way So I get into the booth and i'm like shooting my intro and i'm kind of you know dunking on ai a little bit

2016
03:11:15,460 --> 03:11:19,380
We have stupid ai cartoon jensen holding a bubble wand and like

2017
03:11:19,940 --> 03:11:26,420
We're kind of we're you know, we're kind of teasing them a little bit and then I I get in front of the system and i'm like, holy s***

2018
03:11:27,460 --> 03:11:36,180
um Like this looks really good and I saw I saw a fair bit of criticism on the video that I didn't move the character and

2019
03:11:36,180 --> 03:11:39,540
Blacksmith bukong That was only

2020
03:11:39,540 --> 03:11:45,380
Because they had the character in like exactly the same spot on both systems and I told them I wouldn't but I I could pan the camera

2021
03:11:45,780 --> 03:11:51,860
Like I could move the scene And then the other one where they they didn't just not want me to mess up their demo

2022
03:11:51,860 --> 03:11:55,860
I was allowed to do whatever I wanted with it, but that wasn't NVIDIA hiding anything

2023
03:11:56,580 --> 03:12:00,100
um What's up? Sorry the top comment on this video

2024
03:12:00,580 --> 03:12:07,940
um The the this NVIDIA video that you did the top comment how long before fake frames become real frames and video has to make fake

2025
03:12:07,940 --> 03:12:09,940
Fake frames out of fake frames. Yeah

2026
03:12:11,620 --> 03:12:18,420
That just I don't know just reading that and then can't wait for 50 90 performance on a 60 50 both of those just got me

2027
03:12:18,420 --> 03:12:20,580
Giggling they hit pretty hard. Yeah. Yeah, um

2028
03:12:22,100 --> 03:12:26,100
Anyway, I got in front of it and I'm switching between the two models

2029
03:12:26,100 --> 03:12:30,660
So NVIDIA had set up for their demo so that you could switch between old dlss and new dlss

2030
03:12:30,740 --> 03:12:33,220
You could just have a hotkey to toggle the models. It's like

2031
03:12:36,260 --> 03:12:39,460
Wow The boiling is

2032
03:12:39,460 --> 03:12:44,500
so reduced The general sharpness and clarity is

2033
03:12:45,220 --> 03:12:49,140
So much better and when they told me in the pre briefing that it was going to help with HDR

2034
03:12:49,220 --> 03:12:53,060
I was like, what are you even talking about? That doesn't even make any sense to me

2035
03:12:53,860 --> 03:12:56,580
But then once I saw it in action. I was like

2036
03:12:57,780 --> 03:13:01,700
Oh Okay, so

2037
03:13:02,900 --> 03:13:05,300
It doesn't it doesn't make your monitor brighter

2038
03:13:06,020 --> 03:13:10,580
Obviously, but it does a better job of detecting glowing objects

2039
03:13:11,620 --> 03:13:17,380
And particle effects and things in motion that are supposed to be bright. So yeah, it doesn't make your monitor brighter

2040
03:13:17,380 --> 03:13:22,260
But it does make the HDR effect more impactful. Sure. It is a

2041
03:13:23,140 --> 03:13:26,340
market difference in image quality to the point where

2042
03:13:27,220 --> 03:13:29,220
I was looking at it going

2043
03:13:30,660 --> 03:13:34,660
For the first time I would just turn this on

2044
03:13:34,980 --> 03:13:37,620
No-brainer in any game that it looks this good in

2045
03:13:38,420 --> 03:13:44,420
and Like multi-frame gen obviously latency is still going to be a thing, right?

2046
03:13:44,980 --> 03:13:48,900
But NVIDIA actually to again to their credit mindblown

2047
03:13:49,780 --> 03:13:55,540
Had their demo set up um for uh, shoot. What's that? What's that game called the?

2048
03:13:56,740 --> 03:14:00,740
Like the space exploration That the sequel

2049
03:14:01,300 --> 03:14:07,460
Help me. What game what game was that? space exploration sequel. Yeah, oh outer worlds too. Thank you. Uh

2050
03:14:08,180 --> 03:14:11,140
So on outer worlds too their frame gen demo

2051
03:14:11,700 --> 03:14:16,020
Was running on I think it was like 50 60 ti's or something like that

2052
03:14:16,500 --> 03:14:23,140
Like they they they didn't just show the top in the top end card. They weren't showing

2053
03:14:23,540 --> 03:14:26,260
Here's a card that doesn't even need 6x frame gen

2054
03:14:27,060 --> 03:14:31,540
Jenning 6x frames and getting 700 FPS or whatever that they could have done that demo

2055
03:14:31,940 --> 03:14:36,740
But they chose instead to do outer worlds too, which was using up to 6x frame gen

2056
03:14:37,300 --> 03:14:42,500
And delivering yes high latency because it's generating more frames and it's actually rendering

2057
03:14:43,380 --> 03:14:48,980
But a very smooth animation experience and it's important to understand what the point of the demo was

2058
03:14:49,380 --> 03:14:54,180
The point of the demo wasn't this is how I would play this game. I wouldn't I would turn down the details

2059
03:14:54,260 --> 03:14:58,100
Even the invidia people and you know, I trash on their communication sometimes

2060
03:14:58,100 --> 03:15:05,220
But even the invidia people very openly admit Yeah, they wouldn't always even run it on at all and when they do they would run it at various settings

2061
03:15:05,300 --> 03:15:12,740
And this is why they offer you those things. I do respect that So the point of that demo wasn't this is how I would run this game with 50 plus milliseconds of latency

2062
03:15:13,060 --> 03:15:16,740
The point of that demo was how good do these generated frames look?

2063
03:15:17,700 --> 03:15:21,700
And they look Shockingly good for how many of them are

2064
03:15:22,420 --> 03:15:26,500
fake frames are generated frames um

2065
03:15:26,500 --> 03:15:35,300
I am Dark guy too says pretty sure jensen and other top people just don't care about gaming anymore and leave it to the lower teams

2066
03:15:35,380 --> 03:15:39,780
I don't know everything I've heard about jensen is he's like sort of a mark side of a micro manager with everything

2067
03:15:39,940 --> 03:15:47,300
And like very involved, but I don't know I don't know how true that remains He's been doing a lot of more like pr like like being a face of the company stuff lately

2068
03:15:47,620 --> 03:15:52,100
Interviews and things like that. So I don't know. I've met the guy, but I don't like know him so

2069
03:15:52,900 --> 03:15:57,380
Hard for me to speculate on that anyway, um

2070
03:15:58,340 --> 03:16:00,900
Yeah, dlss 4.5 the new model

2071
03:16:02,020 --> 03:16:05,860
And and you can try it for yourself. You don't have to take my word for it. You can just you can just go

2072
03:16:06,420 --> 03:16:11,300
And uh, if you go in the g-force app if you have an invidia card, um fairly recent gen

2073
03:16:11,620 --> 03:16:14,980
The older cards have a bigger performance hit on it from my understanding

2074
03:16:14,980 --> 03:16:20,340
But you go into the invidia app and then you have to find the option to opt into beta and experimental features

2075
03:16:20,660 --> 03:16:24,740
And then you just wait as far as I can tell they might have a check for updates now button

2076
03:16:24,820 --> 03:16:27,940
I couldn't find it when I was trying to set this up at a booth and I was in a hurry

2077
03:16:27,940 --> 03:16:34,180
But I couldn't immediately find it But I just waited a while and eventually it prompted me to restart the invidia app

2078
03:16:34,500 --> 03:16:38,420
Just make sure you got the latest drivers and then you select model l or model m

2079
03:16:38,740 --> 03:16:42,180
Depending on your use case and you can go find information on which one is best

2080
03:16:42,180 --> 03:16:47,140
I just I turned it on Uh in the MSI booth in borderlands 4 and it was just like

2081
03:16:47,860 --> 03:16:51,220
Wow, this is really good in this too. So I've seen it in outer worlds too

2082
03:16:51,300 --> 03:16:53,940
I've seen it in black nifu kong and I've seen it in borderlands 2

2083
03:16:54,660 --> 03:16:57,940
And it just looks really really good

2084
03:16:59,140 --> 03:17:03,700
I um for the first time I'm like, okay. Well, this is just the future then

2085
03:17:05,220 --> 03:17:07,220
It's it's interesting to me because like

2086
03:17:08,660 --> 03:17:10,820
You know, I don't I don't love the

2087
03:17:11,700 --> 03:17:16,580
I can understand it, but I don't necessarily love the like odd developers just suck and need to do better argument

2088
03:17:16,900 --> 03:17:21,220
Such uh, that is such a just lazy

2089
03:17:21,220 --> 03:17:28,900
But broad strokes. Yes But nonsense argument you look at arc Raiders and embark and you look at 1080s running that game

2090
03:17:29,380 --> 03:17:33,060
North of 60 FPS. Yep, and it's like, yeah, man

2091
03:17:33,620 --> 03:17:42,820
Well, it comes down to what you're trying to do Some games are about lighting and ambiance and some games are about making sure that looks great

2092
03:17:44,820 --> 03:17:50,820
There's different ways to make a game look great and it's not the best looking game. Yeah, so like okay. Yeah

2093
03:17:51,940 --> 03:17:56,820
And it's just it's just it's we're in an interesting it's such an interesting crossroads

2094
03:17:57,380 --> 03:18:03,780
Uh Because on the competitive side, you don't want that input latency. No, I wouldn't I wouldn't use any of this stuff for a competitive title

2095
03:18:04,020 --> 03:18:08,340
But then it is super interesting actually upscaling maybe

2096
03:18:09,700 --> 03:18:15,940
That's a longer conversation, but frame gen absolutely not and there's always been different settings depending on if the game is competitive

2097
03:18:15,940 --> 03:18:20,340
Or single player or whatever. Yeah, but this is like a very deep divergence

2098
03:18:20,980 --> 03:18:23,380
In like how your computer is going to feel

2099
03:18:24,500 --> 03:18:27,060
Depending on how you set things up in my opinion

2100
03:18:27,780 --> 03:18:32,660
well, I mean again that's uh that's where g-force app comes in

2101
03:18:32,900 --> 03:18:38,180
Where it's supposed you just click a button and it gives you the optimal settings. There was a crazy thread. Yeah, where

2102
03:18:38,820 --> 03:18:42,260
Uh, a buddy and I were playing a game and he was having some performance issues

2103
03:18:42,580 --> 03:18:45,620
And we were trying to figure out what the heck was going on because it was like it was weird

2104
03:18:45,780 --> 03:18:53,220
He had like 25 gp utilization and was getting 40 FPS. Okay, just odd. Uh, oh boy. Here we go

2105
03:18:56,020 --> 03:19:00,020
Google it brought him to a reddit thread the top voted comment was

2106
03:19:00,580 --> 03:19:02,580
Click optimize in the NVIDIA app

2107
03:19:04,180 --> 03:19:11,140
top voted comment not not Like everybody's just like yeah, uh, do that not not a debate really

2108
03:19:11,940 --> 03:19:19,620
just no the optimize no like You know conversation or anything just like what it could be what it couldn't be what you might prefer

2109
03:19:20,180 --> 03:19:25,380
Versus what you might not prefer. Nope. Just click the optimize button and did it work? Yeah

2110
03:19:25,540 --> 03:19:27,540
Yeah

2111
03:19:29,060 --> 03:19:37,540
Cool crazy Jerome are in Floatplane chat goes uh dlss will become like the lossless slash compressed debate in audiophile

2112
03:19:37,780 --> 03:19:42,260
I've seen it might have been drome or the previous time too. I saw this earlier in Floatplane chat and honestly

2113
03:19:43,060 --> 03:19:48,260
If we're looking years in the future, I could maybe see that especially if they figure out the the latency thing

2114
03:19:48,500 --> 03:19:52,500
I'm talking like well, that'll be that's tough theoretically reflex too is the solution

2115
03:19:53,140 --> 03:19:55,540
We'll solve it or reduce the projection. Yeah

2116
03:19:56,180 --> 03:20:02,100
Solve it like be better than native like, uh, it's already used in vr

2117
03:20:02,740 --> 03:20:05,940
um and

2118
03:20:05,940 --> 03:20:07,940
They've they're clearly

2119
03:20:08,980 --> 03:20:14,500
Working at it. Uh, if you want to if you want to familiarize yourself with the with the uh with the idea behind it

2120
03:20:14,980 --> 03:20:19,220
Here we did we actually did a video on this a number of years ago now. I think

2121
03:20:20,180 --> 03:20:23,140
Linus reprojection thought of this here. Hold on

2122
03:20:23,940 --> 03:20:27,620
It's called i'm embarrassed. I didn't think of this asynchronous reprojection

2123
03:20:28,580 --> 03:20:33,700
It's super cool tech and um the original source is actually

2124
03:20:34,660 --> 03:20:39,940
What was uh, what was but yeah, yeah, here we go. So there's comrad stingers original video and download links

2125
03:20:39,940 --> 03:20:45,620
So you can like play around with it and then two clicks philip did a video about async reprojection as well

2126
03:20:46,260 --> 03:20:49,940
um Oh, hello. Hold on a second youtube

2127
03:20:50,820 --> 03:20:54,660
No, that's interesting um

2128
03:20:54,660 --> 03:20:57,860
My browser tab just like stopped working. Anyway, the point is

2129
03:20:58,500 --> 03:21:02,180
What it does is it couldn't you still be shooting at a phantom?

2130
03:21:02,900 --> 03:21:06,420
you could but

2131
03:21:06,420 --> 03:21:09,060
There's already latency between you and your opponent

2132
03:21:09,780 --> 03:21:13,300
Anyway, we just compensate for it in the same way

2133
03:21:13,780 --> 03:21:21,860
We compensate as much as we can so what what async reprojection does is it decouples your inputs

2134
03:21:22,900 --> 03:21:31,380
From the game's frame rate. So it moves opponents and other objects based on the updated data

2135
03:21:32,340 --> 03:21:36,580
But your interaction with the engine is completely decoupled

2136
03:21:37,380 --> 03:21:41,780
and Bothery smooth

2137
03:21:42,340 --> 03:21:47,060
So theoretically there should be no downside as long as

2138
03:21:48,180 --> 03:21:51,060
Wait for it as long as you're still running at like a reasonable

2139
03:21:51,700 --> 03:21:57,300
Frame rate, but it will feel So much betterer. That sounds like it's great for input lag

2140
03:21:57,380 --> 03:22:01,220
But I still feel like you might have issues with the whole shooting at phantom's thing

2141
03:22:02,020 --> 03:22:11,140
I don't know if this solves competitive gameplay It might be a misunderstanding something or just not very familiar. No, there will still be there will still be disadvantages to having a low

2142
03:22:12,260 --> 03:22:15,460
Hold on. I'm actually just trying to think no no hold on a second because

2143
03:22:18,180 --> 03:22:24,100
Like if you're trying to snipe like a like a pin-sized head on a on a hill away far away from you

2144
03:22:24,340 --> 03:22:29,700
Yeah, they could move enough that it could be a problem But if you're in like a like a close-quarter shotgun fight or something

2145
03:22:30,420 --> 03:22:35,220
Um, I yeah, I kind of doubt it. I think you I think you could be not shooting at phantom's

2146
03:22:35,940 --> 03:22:38,980
There will I think there will always ask a risk

2147
03:22:39,380 --> 03:22:47,700
Like functionally always be purists and very very high performance like esports athletes who will just simply

2148
03:22:48,500 --> 03:22:55,140
Need a 90 90 ti titan or whatever the thing that I'm trying to ask isn't even necessarily for myself

2149
03:22:55,300 --> 03:22:59,780
Like is this gonna make a difference for me? Realistically? No, but like is is shroud gonna turn this on

2150
03:23:00,500 --> 03:23:04,340
is Probably insert other name. I don't know whatever but like

2151
03:23:05,380 --> 03:23:08,740
Yeah, so here here we go. Okay. I've got my yeah. I've got my stuff fixed

2152
03:23:09,940 --> 03:23:11,940
So with just a few clicks

2153
03:23:13,060 --> 03:23:15,620
asynchronous free projection demo takes 30 FPS

2154
03:23:17,300 --> 03:23:22,340
And makes it feel like 240 FPS and it's kind of hard to tell

2155
03:23:23,220 --> 03:23:26,420
um but

2156
03:23:26,660 --> 03:23:30,020
We have often done a pretty bad job

2157
03:23:30,820 --> 03:23:37,060
There we go. So this is what's happening. It's taking each one frame that you get and it is decoupling

2158
03:23:37,860 --> 03:23:41,060
Your inputs from those updates. No, I yeah, I get that

2159
03:23:41,700 --> 03:23:46,980
So in so at 30 FPS, it's um, what is that 33 milliseconds?

2160
03:23:47,860 --> 03:23:52,180
At 60 FPS that's 16 milliseconds. That is freaking not a lot of time

2161
03:23:52,580 --> 03:23:55,380
So if you're running the game at some like reasonable

2162
03:23:56,100 --> 03:24:03,780
refresh rate 16 or let's say you can get a hundred FPS. So now we're talking about more like like 10 milliseconds or whatever

2163
03:24:04,420 --> 03:24:09,940
um Would you rather have your inputs at a thousand hertz?

2164
03:24:10,660 --> 03:24:18,020
On a like a thousand hertz monitor Even knowing that, you know, the objects could be a hundred milliseconds out of date or whatever, but probably not

2165
03:24:19,060 --> 03:24:25,220
If you tried it Pretty much everyone we put in front of it was like holy crap. This is amazing. I would love this so much more

2166
03:24:26,100 --> 03:24:33,140
um Yeah, my problem my problem with the thing that I'm describing is you wouldn't really be able to tell super easily without like

2167
03:24:33,220 --> 03:24:39,460
Analyzing individual like in a first person shooter game or something where if you're fighting with like blades

2168
03:24:40,580 --> 03:24:43,860
And it's it's physics based or whatever you wouldn't be able to tell without analyzing

2169
03:24:43,940 --> 03:24:49,300
But there's already so much slop in any kind of multiplayer game because of network latency anyway

2170
03:24:49,620 --> 03:24:54,500
That I just it's tough to I just don't see this being the main issue for me. Does this really?

2171
03:24:55,060 --> 03:25:00,180
Yeah, it's probably fine. Whatever. I Didn't have a desktop for a long time. I have a desktop again

2172
03:25:00,260 --> 03:25:03,780
I was quickly reminded that I am now older and slower than I used to be

2173
03:25:04,420 --> 03:25:09,540
It is what it is Also rusty, but yeah, also the other thing. Yeah

2174
03:25:12,340 --> 03:25:14,660
And you know like I I do okay, but like it's not

2175
03:25:15,620 --> 03:25:21,060
I'm not I'm not a competitive gamer and I I have long accepted this and that's fine

2176
03:25:21,780 --> 03:25:26,100
me too Even more than him not that it's a competition, but I have

2177
03:25:26,820 --> 03:25:31,540
Hardcore accepted being non competitive more than he has. Yeah, I still try. Yeah

2178
03:25:32,500 --> 03:25:36,820
There's no point for me But um

2179
03:25:37,300 --> 03:25:40,340
Yeah, I I'm wondering about like the super optimized

2180
03:25:41,860 --> 03:25:48,500
Situation for someone who is genuinely in that level of competition trying to do that thing. Yeah is this viable

2181
03:25:49,140 --> 03:25:54,100
That's that's the part where I'm wondering. I don't know. I don't think we're gonna know until we actually get reflex too

2182
03:25:54,260 --> 03:25:59,700
Or three or five or who you know who knows right because clearly this was working well enough

2183
03:26:00,180 --> 03:26:04,260
That someone was able to put together a very compelling very exciting demo years ago

2184
03:26:05,060 --> 03:26:07,220
It's already working in vr games

2185
03:26:08,260 --> 03:26:13,540
and used very actively and NVIDIA it has been cooking on this for

2186
03:26:14,820 --> 03:26:16,820
Presumably this whole time

2187
03:26:17,860 --> 03:26:22,100
And they're not they don't think it's ready yet So yeah, yeah

2188
03:26:22,180 --> 03:26:31,620
It'll just you know, we'll have to we'll have to try it Because because my the reason for bringing this up is the whole lossless versus compressed audio thing. Yeah is like

2189
03:26:34,580 --> 03:26:36,580
Effectively universally used

2190
03:26:38,740 --> 03:26:40,980
In my opinion except for

2191
03:26:43,380 --> 03:26:45,380
I wonder what dms would say

2192
03:26:46,420 --> 03:26:51,060
I wonder if he Uses lossless or not. I'm actually not sure

2193
03:26:51,940 --> 03:26:58,340
Um, he does use losses. Okay. I'm not convinced that he actually thinks it matters though

2194
03:26:59,460 --> 03:27:01,460
I think it's one of those I can so

2195
03:27:02,980 --> 03:27:07,140
If your equipment's good enough you can hear it, but there's diminishing returns

2196
03:27:08,100 --> 03:27:12,260
Okay, can hear it compared to what though compared to like

2197
03:27:13,700 --> 03:27:18,100
You know not high quality. Yeah compared to streaming or like compared to a cd

2198
03:27:18,660 --> 03:27:25,780
Um, well cd is pretty much indistinguishable right redbrook's redbrook's pretty damn high. Well, so that's compared to an mp3

2199
03:27:26,260 --> 03:27:30,500
Sure, definitely. That's what i'm that's what i'm that's what i'm that's what i'm talking about here

2200
03:27:30,580 --> 03:27:34,020
It's like when we say can you hear the difference from lossless?

2201
03:27:35,140 --> 03:27:37,940
I think what luke was getting at lossless compared to

2202
03:27:38,500 --> 03:27:41,860
Any kind of lossy compression recently high quality and I I am

2203
03:27:42,420 --> 03:27:45,540
Personally not convinced and I don't want to put words in dms's mouth

2204
03:27:45,620 --> 03:27:52,900
But I've been pretty sure we've talked about it and high quality compressed audio is pretty darn good. Absolutely

2205
03:27:53,060 --> 03:27:56,980
He was talking about the oh Yeah

2206
03:27:56,980 --> 03:27:59,940
Does it make sense to mention video ideas that might be like pretty far out?

2207
03:28:00,580 --> 03:28:02,580
Yeah, yeah, all right. I won't cool

2208
03:28:04,900 --> 03:28:10,100
Sounds good, um, was there anything else in the NVIDIA ces keynote. I don't actually think we talked about it at all

2209
03:28:10,100 --> 03:28:13,380
Yeah, there's other stuff who cares. Okay, sounds good. Goodbye

2210
03:28:14,100 --> 03:28:20,100
This is cool prusa pro afs. It was actually the battle bots guys that

2211
03:28:20,820 --> 03:28:24,100
brought this to my attention it's

2212
03:28:24,100 --> 03:28:26,500
Like just ready to go print farm

2213
03:28:27,220 --> 03:28:31,700
that just automatically Oh loads and unloads your plates and just

2214
03:28:32,740 --> 03:28:36,820
Does print farm things cool, right? That's pretty sweet. Yeah

2215
03:28:38,340 --> 03:28:40,900
Wow, cool, right? I think they just announced this

2216
03:28:41,620 --> 03:28:46,020
That's it crazy neat, right? Yeah

2217
03:28:46,980 --> 03:28:49,780
Uh screwdriver video. What's this? Absolutely mad lads. I don't know

2218
03:28:50,900 --> 03:28:54,820
It says check out this cool LTT screwdriver video courtesy Jake, uh

2219
03:28:55,140 --> 03:29:01,220
Redditor Bradley Doyle modeled textured and animated our screwdrivers in blender to make this cool product video

2220
03:29:01,460 --> 03:29:05,700
Oh, I did see this. Yeah I have not seen this. It's pretty sweet

2221
03:29:06,420 --> 03:29:15,060
Oh, that's cool Whoa, it even like looks like it's made of zinc. Okay, that's pretty cool

2222
03:29:17,860 --> 03:29:19,860
Wow

2223
03:29:20,900 --> 03:29:27,380
Dude, I've seen this already and it's so cool. Good lord. It's so what you did all the different colors

2224
03:29:30,660 --> 03:29:34,020
Wow, what wow, okay

2225
03:29:34,740 --> 03:29:44,020
That's pretty cool Oh, hold on. I accidentally went away when it was still saying what Bradley does. Hold on. Hold on. There were two things 3d generalists and motion designer

2226
03:29:44,020 --> 03:29:54,020
Motion designer. Yeah So sick Bradley Doyle dot ca genuinely fantastic Canadian bro to you. Oh, yeah, you'll love to see it sick

2227
03:29:55,140 --> 03:30:00,900
He has five subscribers on youtube No, that will probably go up. Yeah change that

2228
03:30:01,860 --> 03:30:07,380
Uh, okay, what is that it for topics? Oh, okay. Hey

2229
03:30:08,020 --> 03:30:10,340
Bose has open sourced the sound touch API

2230
03:30:11,140 --> 03:30:14,420
After previously announcing the end of cloud support for sound touch

2231
03:30:14,500 --> 03:30:17,540
Bose is taking steps to ensure that their owners aren't left as a well

2232
03:30:18,340 --> 03:30:21,220
Our discussion question is do you think bose is getting it right? Should they be doing more?

2233
03:30:21,780 --> 03:30:27,300
Obviously in our perfect world when you sell something that has a function. It just has the function forever. This is

2234
03:30:28,020 --> 03:30:34,180
the acceptable Compromise that we have laid out. So it would be pretty hypocritical for us to

2235
03:30:34,980 --> 03:30:38,980
Um now say that bose needs to do more and do better

2236
03:30:39,380 --> 03:30:44,900
This is um, obviously not ideal, but it is better than nothing. So I'm going to take the small l

2237
03:30:45,540 --> 03:30:52,580
Yeah, I think without diving into this way too much This seems like to a tee what we've asked companies to do if they're going to shut something down

2238
03:30:52,900 --> 03:30:56,740
Which again ideally you don't shut it down but

2239
03:30:56,740 --> 03:31:02,180
We also are realists and recognize it's gonna happen that you can't just keep everything going forever

2240
03:31:03,780 --> 03:31:06,100
So I think that's really awesome

2241
03:31:07,540 --> 03:31:10,660
Makes me think more positively of bose mark straight up mark dick

2242
03:31:11,380 --> 03:31:15,860
tex 69 asks if we've talked about the clicks communicator

2243
03:31:16,820 --> 03:31:18,820
People in the community are hyped af

2244
03:31:20,740 --> 03:31:24,980
Um, no I

2245
03:31:25,540 --> 03:31:33,140
Uh Yeah, I could I could try it. I guess I mean I I I did recently

2246
03:31:33,860 --> 03:31:37,060
Try a phone with a with a keyboard again

2247
03:31:37,700 --> 03:31:43,060
And what I discovered is that wow, I um use a lot of special characters these days and that's

2248
03:31:43,940 --> 03:31:48,100
That's good. I like it auto complete is

2249
03:31:48,100 --> 03:31:54,420
Really good and screens are actually legitimately faster than I ever was with a full keyboard

2250
03:31:55,060 --> 03:32:00,100
Uh, I definitely have more to learn about this one. There's things about it that look

2251
03:32:00,980 --> 03:32:07,540
Better than previous keyboard phone modern attempts at uh bringing back the past

2252
03:32:07,780 --> 03:32:14,580
I heard I heard rumor that like, uh, one of the original blackberry designers is on the team. Okay. I don't know

2253
03:32:15,060 --> 03:32:21,540
Well, that worked out great for blackberry. Well, I did originally. Yeah, right. I don't know man. I um

2254
03:32:23,860 --> 03:32:26,580
I would love for this to be like the logitech gcloud

2255
03:32:27,300 --> 03:32:30,580
Where I go on wanshow and I go yeah, yeah, I don't know seems dumb

2256
03:32:31,140 --> 03:32:34,820
And then I use it and it totally changes my opinion. Sure

2257
03:32:36,660 --> 03:32:42,900
I'd love for that to happen Probably not but I bet I'd love for it to happen. It would be cool. That's gonna be my attitude

2258
03:32:42,900 --> 03:32:47,460
I would love for it. I would love I'd love for that to happen

2259
03:32:51,380 --> 03:32:53,940
More topics more but like I'm the kind of guy

2260
03:32:54,740 --> 03:32:57,540
Who wants like even more screen?

2261
03:32:58,340 --> 03:33:01,780
Not even less screen which might make that tough

2262
03:33:01,780 --> 03:33:05,460
I don't I think one of the reasons why I said I don't think it's gonna happen isn't because I'm like

2263
03:33:05,540 --> 03:33:10,500
Oh, the clicks is doomed or whatever. I think it's not for you. Yeah. I'm just not the guy. Yeah

2264
03:33:11,380 --> 03:33:13,620
Is should this be hosted by someone else?

2265
03:33:14,820 --> 03:33:20,260
Um, no, I think I can be fair to it. I don't think there's anyone here who would want to keyboard on the phone quite frankly

2266
03:33:23,140 --> 03:33:25,140
Like it seems like uh

2267
03:33:26,980 --> 03:33:28,980
Is there more going on

2268
03:33:30,340 --> 03:33:35,700
With what Like are they are they doing something more they said a phone for people who want to like

2269
03:33:36,500 --> 03:33:41,140
Do stuff not doom scroll and then their thing says tools for taking action not distraction or whatever

2270
03:33:41,140 --> 03:33:47,060
Are they doing more than just put keyboard on phone? I'm pretty sure it's just the keyboard. Hmm. Yeah

2271
03:33:48,500 --> 03:33:51,060
All right, I think it's time for after dark mr. Dan. Yeah

2272
03:33:55,860 --> 03:34:00,900
Hit me Sure thing. Yeah, we got a few here today. Oh, it comes out of the the things like a case

2273
03:34:01,380 --> 03:34:09,140
It can just be a normal phone I just watched a little mini video. Oh neat. There's just a usbc plug in the thing that gives you the keyboard

2274
03:34:11,780 --> 03:34:15,140
Oh, watch this replay

2275
03:34:15,140 --> 03:34:18,980
Oh, that's their cases though. Click. That's a different product. Oh

2276
03:34:19,620 --> 03:34:21,620
The clicks communicator is a phone

2277
03:34:23,540 --> 03:34:29,460
Clicks communicator in part. Okay, so I didn't click on that. I just scrolled down and then it's no longer that. All right

2278
03:34:30,260 --> 03:34:36,980
Sure That was a little bit confusing my bad. Cool. Good chat. Okay

2279
03:34:40,020 --> 03:34:46,180
Hello LTT Linus How is fft is Alice going? I

2280
03:34:47,060 --> 03:34:52,420
am on the second last fight and it's a giant load of bullshit and um

2281
03:34:53,620 --> 03:34:56,740
At this point, I would either have to

2282
03:34:57,460 --> 03:35:02,100
undo the last few also bullshit, but I made it through them fights and

2283
03:35:02,660 --> 03:35:08,340
grind a bunch of stuff and get some equipment that I need to bring with me specifically to make this fight winnable

2284
03:35:08,820 --> 03:35:12,660
Because I need to be able to absorb some stupid element. Otherwise. I will just

2285
03:35:13,060 --> 03:35:15,940
immediately be one hit every time any of them hit me

2286
03:35:16,660 --> 03:35:18,660
um, or grind a bunch of levels

2287
03:35:20,420 --> 03:35:23,540
Or I need to go back out of this dungeon

2288
03:35:23,700 --> 03:35:28,500
so undo those three fights and then admit defeat and go off of

2289
03:35:28,660 --> 03:35:33,940
tactician difficulty and go back to the standard difficulty in which case these last fights will just be a breeze because

2290
03:35:34,260 --> 03:35:40,820
I've been playing at tactician difficulty. So I'm I'd be like ludicrously overpowered to play against normal opponents

2291
03:35:41,540 --> 03:35:46,100
In which case I don't even really care about finishing it either of those two ways enough

2292
03:35:46,100 --> 03:35:52,900
So I'm on like the second last fight and I gave up But I beat the game already so I don't really care and I got almost to the end at tactician

2293
03:35:52,900 --> 03:36:00,660
and the only reason that I can't get through it is because I Like I got like two of my shields broken in the previous fight. So I like didn't bring enough

2294
03:36:00,980 --> 03:36:07,700
I think it's yeah ice shields I didn't bring enough ice shields with me and a couple of them got like broken by stupid knights

2295
03:36:07,860 --> 03:36:12,740
So I like don't have enough to keep my opponent to keep my team from getting just

2296
03:36:13,140 --> 03:36:18,340
sniped across the map by that bullshit guy in the second last fight that just has an ice gun that just

2297
03:36:18,820 --> 03:36:27,460
F***ing destroys you and then I didn't grind Uh break weapon on mustadio and just like cheese it like that. So it's just I don't know man

2298
03:36:28,100 --> 03:36:33,780
I don't know man. It's one of those things where I know that tactician is for experienced players of the game

2299
03:36:34,740 --> 03:36:37,060
But when the only way to beat a fight is to have like

2300
03:36:37,860 --> 03:36:42,580
Done a very specific build or like have a very specific item that you've got equipped

2301
03:36:43,620 --> 03:36:47,380
That's not super fun for me. I like being able to build a somewhat rounded party

2302
03:36:48,340 --> 03:36:53,700
And I'm I'm over it Got a question here from godi is wi-fi drunk

2303
03:36:54,340 --> 03:37:02,420
What happened to wi-fi 70? I mean wi-fi has been wi-fi has been drunk for a while. I mean remember 802.11 b

2304
03:37:03,220 --> 03:37:07,460
and then 802.11 We went all the way to g

2305
03:37:07,460 --> 03:37:09,460
and then 802.11

2306
03:37:10,500 --> 03:37:13,220
What was the next one was it ac was that the next one?

2307
03:37:13,860 --> 03:37:16,500
And then yes, and then we went to wi-fi

2308
03:37:17,380 --> 03:37:20,740
6 I think hold on did they drop the letters after ac?

2309
03:37:21,300 --> 03:37:28,340
Oh, yeah, and I forgot about and no no was n a x is when they were calling them like both g then n then ac then a x

2310
03:37:29,060 --> 03:37:32,740
Then we retconned all of that and called it all

2311
03:37:33,300 --> 03:37:38,260
wi-fi to wi-fi 5 and then came wi-fi 6 then 6 e and now 7

2312
03:37:38,980 --> 03:37:43,300
And then yeah magic Yeah, no you liked it

2313
03:37:43,300 --> 03:37:46,340
Yeah, there you go 11 11 b 11 a 11 g 11

2314
03:37:46,580 --> 03:37:52,580
n 11 a c 11 a x 11 b e 11 b n no one really used 802.11 though

2315
03:37:53,620 --> 03:37:58,500
And then a and b existed at like kind of the same. Yeah, there you go kind of the same time

2316
03:37:59,220 --> 03:38:06,820
a I think was 5 gigahertz rather than 2.4 if I recall correctly, but literally quite literally nothing consumer facing used it

2317
03:38:07,620 --> 03:38:10,980
um That was pretty cool

2318
03:38:11,220 --> 03:38:19,700
Am I remembering that correctly? Oh, yeah, there's a table right there to the right. Yeah. Yeah a was 5 gigahertz. Yeah. Yeah, there you go

2319
03:38:20,100 --> 03:38:22,100
cool good chat

2320
03:38:23,140 --> 03:38:26,100
Hi dld on your comment about hard drives

2321
03:38:26,340 --> 03:38:29,060
IBM is trying to strategically position tape

2322
03:38:29,460 --> 03:38:36,420
IBM diamond back for long-term storage due to data center boom. Do you think the bubble will pop on them?

2323
03:38:37,220 --> 03:38:42,180
I know tape's been around. I don't think tape is ever gonna die. Yeah, it's it's it has not

2324
03:38:42,580 --> 03:38:45,700
That's all going to tape. It has not left tape has been around

2325
03:38:46,340 --> 03:38:50,100
It hasn't been around at the consumer level really um

2326
03:38:50,100 --> 03:38:54,340
Although there's been a couple attempts it it's

2327
03:38:55,700 --> 03:38:59,220
Yeah, the problem is the drives are so freaking expensive

2328
03:38:59,380 --> 03:39:04,180
But if I remember correctly the tapes are pretty cheap, right? Yeah. Yeah the drives are just

2329
03:39:04,900 --> 03:39:07,860
Out of reach of consumers realistically. That's good timing

2330
03:39:10,100 --> 03:39:12,340
What you said the that they were out of reach of consumers

2331
03:39:15,300 --> 03:39:22,340
Yeah, but the but the tapes are fine and like genuinely a lot of big enterprises been using them for the whole time

2332
03:39:22,500 --> 03:39:25,700
They're very reliable. They're slow af

2333
03:39:26,660 --> 03:39:32,740
But for long-term archival storage until we get like dna storage or like storing data and

2334
03:39:33,460 --> 03:39:37,860
Crystals crystals or something. This is um, this is pretty awesome

2335
03:39:38,100 --> 03:39:44,500
Aren't some of the sizes that you can get like obscene like 512 terabytes and like they're massive like crazy

2336
03:39:44,740 --> 03:39:48,420
Yeah, it's it's honestly my favorite part about tape is like the robots

2337
03:39:49,460 --> 03:39:53,220
Like the tunnels and the tape grabbing robots and the it's just so neat

2338
03:39:53,780 --> 03:39:58,660
Oh, this was cool. Um, I dropped by for our systems. We didn't end up making a video

2339
03:39:58,660 --> 03:40:04,740
But their new cold plate looks amazing. I was kind of I was kind of skeptical because I was like, okay

2340
03:40:04,820 --> 03:40:12,580
I mean we've pretty much gotten to the point where Um, you you've made copper fins as small as they can get, you know, how much better does it get?

2341
03:40:13,060 --> 03:40:17,860
It turns out. Oh, this is not a great This is not a great shot

2342
03:40:17,940 --> 03:40:21,620
Oh, shut up. They don't have the they don't have the geometry on their site

2343
03:40:22,340 --> 03:40:31,220
Come on you guys Okay, well, whatever it turns out that if you use deposition manufacturing like they do with their air jets

2344
03:40:31,940 --> 03:40:36,100
um You can create shapes

2345
03:40:37,140 --> 03:40:42,340
Through very similar to how you would manufacture like like silicon like semiconductor products

2346
03:40:42,740 --> 03:40:45,780
You can deposit much more complex

2347
03:40:46,260 --> 03:40:51,060
Geometries that dramatically improve the heat exchange and you can do it really cheaply

2348
03:40:51,860 --> 03:40:55,540
Which is probably the coolest part about it. They weren't quoting pricing publicly

2349
03:40:55,620 --> 03:40:59,780
But someone slipped up and told me a number which I won't disclose because I said I wouldn't

2350
03:41:00,340 --> 03:41:06,420
But it seems like Basically, my next question was oh interesting. Can we have consumer ones?

2351
03:41:06,820 --> 03:41:10,420
And they were like we haven't considered that and I was like, okay

2352
03:41:10,980 --> 03:41:14,340
Can we have consumer ones? And then they didn't commit anything

2353
03:41:15,540 --> 03:41:19,940
So that was neat for our systems. There you go I'm going here for luke

2354
03:41:19,940 --> 03:41:27,860
Hey, lld question for luke. What's been your overall experience with ovh as a hosting platform? Hello from the ovh dc team

2355
03:41:30,580 --> 03:41:36,340
Which is why I wanted to make sure I read the whole thing I mean with with anyone that you will have had a

2356
03:41:37,380 --> 03:41:42,820
A you know business relationship for this long. There's been bumps, but I think it's been really good realistically

2357
03:41:43,140 --> 03:41:52,020
Like the the bumps that we've had They have cared about them and sought resolution fairly quickly and this includes when we've had account handlers that like

2358
03:41:53,780 --> 03:41:57,540
Did not know or care whatsoever about all of this

2359
03:41:57,940 --> 03:42:03,060
they're just their ovh people dealing with an ovh customer that has a problem and

2360
03:42:03,540 --> 03:42:10,180
They cared and dealt with it and like some people have pointed out certain things that are kind of a little bit bumpy

2361
03:42:10,500 --> 03:42:13,700
about the ovh experience and it's like yeah, they're also

2362
03:42:14,580 --> 03:42:23,220
Show me the price competitor bruh I'll show you the similar bumpy experience like it's fine, dude. I've been pretty happy with how things have generally gone

2363
03:42:23,300 --> 03:42:27,140
I don't have bad things to say. There's a reason why I've been working with ovh for

2364
03:42:28,580 --> 03:42:30,580
a very long time

2365
03:42:31,860 --> 03:42:38,100
And I know there was certain stuff that we like relied on very heavily in the early days

2366
03:42:38,580 --> 03:42:44,740
um Like the DDoS protection back in the day was like a pretty big deal and the ovh to ovh

2367
03:42:45,220 --> 03:42:51,220
Super high speed links that were like practically free if I recall correctly. Yeah pretty big deal. Yeah

2368
03:42:54,020 --> 03:42:58,580
Yeah, we've been we've been quite happy. I don't have bad things to say. I mean, okay

2369
03:42:59,220 --> 03:43:03,700
I could drum some stuff up, but like if I'm being realistic, I'm I'm I'm quite happy

2370
03:43:04,180 --> 03:43:13,380
um, and I'm sure that if If this question was asked in reverse, I'm sure there's things they could drum up as well because we uh, we definitely

2371
03:43:13,540 --> 03:43:15,540
Messaged them a lot about things

2372
03:43:17,140 --> 03:43:22,180
But yeah, they're cool come say hi in our french office. I have technically twice

2373
03:43:24,020 --> 03:43:31,060
Both times were great both times were not for for for full plane, which is the majority of the usage that we have of ovh

2374
03:43:31,540 --> 03:43:37,380
um Yeah, which was kind of funny because both times I went

2375
03:43:38,260 --> 03:43:42,580
I had to tell them like by the way we actually use your stuff and they were like, huh?

2376
03:43:46,500 --> 03:43:54,100
Which is like, yeah, okay Maybe we should uh work on informing them about that. I don't know. Maybe we shouldn't who knows

2377
03:43:54,980 --> 03:44:01,540
Hey Hey, LTT. I am doing a degree in special education and looking into working at a

2378
03:44:02,260 --> 03:44:07,780
non-profit for people with disabilities. I was wondering which teacher or professor inspires you

2379
03:44:09,300 --> 03:44:16,660
Hmm got a couple answers for this one My uh, my parents were my my mom and my stepdad were both teachers and my aunt on my

2380
03:44:17,300 --> 03:44:22,420
Biological father's side was also a teacher. So I had a lot of teachers in my life growing up. Um

2381
03:44:23,220 --> 03:44:28,660
And I always thought that it was a very honorable thing to do. I always thought it was really cool

2382
03:44:29,140 --> 03:44:34,980
Uh, I wanted to be a teacher until I couldn't get a degree. You need a degree to be a teacher at least here anyway

2383
03:44:35,540 --> 03:44:43,460
um But I'd say like the teachers that I had in school that were very inspiring. I mean madame bodasso

2384
03:44:44,660 --> 03:44:48,980
Made me care about french Al horn

2385
03:44:48,980 --> 03:44:54,020
outstanding english teacher who Made me able to write and do my job that I do today

2386
03:44:54,660 --> 03:44:56,660
um

2387
03:44:58,500 --> 03:45:03,860
Yeah, I have three primary ones mr. Trattle who's I know he's still in the in the school system

2388
03:45:04,260 --> 03:45:08,340
I think he's a A principal now, um

2389
03:45:08,340 --> 03:45:14,740
He showed me that like With effort you can accomplish a lot and he enabled me to push really hard

2390
03:45:15,220 --> 03:45:21,300
Like he noticed really early on That I was you know, I'd be done the class assignment

2391
03:45:21,780 --> 03:45:27,060
Four minutes or whatever and you're supposed to sit there for the class duration and he'd give me the next one

2392
03:45:27,700 --> 03:45:34,180
And then I'd finish a bunch of them in a day So he'd give me the next years and be like just sit in the corner and do all these by yourself basically

2393
03:45:34,420 --> 03:45:38,260
I'm not going to teach you how to do them. Here's the information. I have to teach the normal class

2394
03:45:38,340 --> 03:45:40,740
but you can just go and I did that and

2395
03:45:42,420 --> 03:45:46,660
Finished all of the grades of computers in like the first year or two that I was in high school

2396
03:45:47,140 --> 03:45:49,540
A lot of teachers wouldn't do that like that was

2397
03:45:50,340 --> 03:45:53,540
He's going above and beyond and he kept going above and beyond a bunch of times. I remember one year

2398
03:45:54,260 --> 03:46:00,420
He took this I probably told this on my show before but he took a summer class at bcit on 3d game programming

2399
03:46:01,060 --> 03:46:06,420
And then distilled it down and created a new course at our high school just called 3d game programming

2400
03:46:06,820 --> 03:46:12,420
Just for our year because our like a bunch of my friends and and our group of people in my grade

2401
03:46:12,660 --> 03:46:16,500
We're all really interested in this and I don't even think he kept it going

2402
03:46:17,540 --> 03:46:20,660
For future grades because none of the other kids had a lot of interest

2403
03:46:20,900 --> 03:46:27,860
But I think we had two terms of it or something I don't remember all the details, but like that was so unnecessary and so

2404
03:46:28,420 --> 03:46:34,020
Incredibly amazing and inspiring at the same time. I remember again a bunch of us had interest in hardware

2405
03:46:34,100 --> 03:46:38,820
So he did this whole thing I've definitely told him when show before where he got us a bunch of hardware that we could zombify together

2406
03:46:38,820 --> 03:46:43,620
Which was amazing. He was awesome Mr. Mr. Thompson

2407
03:46:43,620 --> 03:46:49,460
I Would get really bad grades in English every single year. Yeah, because I would just get torched for

2408
03:46:51,860 --> 03:46:57,220
You know issues and He put a cap on that and then tried to cultivate the like

2409
03:46:57,860 --> 03:47:02,820
You know, you seem to like care about stuff and have ideas and whatnot. So let's focus on that for now

2410
03:47:03,220 --> 03:47:08,020
Uh and and grow your writing and then out of his course. I went from like bottom of the barrel grades

2411
03:47:08,820 --> 03:47:13,940
To doing really well and getting into AP English 12 and then being fairly successful in AP English 12

2412
03:47:14,420 --> 03:47:18,180
Because it inspired me to try harder, which was great. And then mr. first

2413
03:47:19,700 --> 03:47:23,300
Again, just very inspiring about caring about things and pushing hard

2414
03:47:23,860 --> 03:47:28,100
Regardless and he was my physics teacher. It's great. Those three were like huge inspirations for me

2415
03:47:28,260 --> 03:47:32,740
I'm going to shout out mr. Russell too for teaching me that not all teachers are going to give a s*** about you

2416
03:47:33,060 --> 03:47:36,100
It wasn't that he didn't care. It was that he

2417
03:47:36,820 --> 03:47:45,460
projected How it's going to be Yeah, mr. First showed that like, you know, it it matters if things are like hard, but you still have to do them

2418
03:47:45,780 --> 03:47:51,780
That was like a very important Lesson from him of like here. Look, I'll help you but at the end of the day

2419
03:47:52,340 --> 03:47:56,500
Uh, you're going to be out there on your own and you're going to need to just be able to do it. So like

2420
03:47:57,300 --> 03:48:00,580
I let's figure this out together. I just found out that my AP English teacher

2421
03:48:01,220 --> 03:48:08,260
um Published between nine and six months ago a series of five talks at the merit bc library

2422
03:48:08,900 --> 03:48:12,740
um On the history of

2423
03:48:13,780 --> 03:48:16,900
life on earth What?

2424
03:48:16,900 --> 03:48:24,180
Um, and I pretty much guarantee you Even though this only has as few as one view per video

2425
03:48:24,820 --> 03:48:29,060
That it is going to be um very entertaining and

2426
03:48:29,780 --> 03:48:35,540
very educational That's awesome. So there you go. That's actually really cool

2427
03:48:39,940 --> 03:48:44,660
Hello Dot dll. I'm having all of my teeth

2428
03:48:45,060 --> 03:48:50,260
Including wisdom teeth removed on wednesday. Holy crap. Really? Is that a thing?

2429
03:48:51,300 --> 03:48:58,020
Sometimes all of my teeth Sometimes that can happen. Oh, wow. Okay. Linus when you had your wisdom teeth removed

2430
03:48:58,500 --> 03:49:01,060
How long did it take for you to not be in pain?

2431
03:49:02,820 --> 03:49:08,180
I think not in okay. Well, it depends for the top ones. It was pretty quick for the bottom ones

2432
03:49:08,580 --> 03:49:14,260
man, I don't remember I I I had those out like I don't seven eight years ago. Um

2433
03:49:15,060 --> 03:49:20,340
I remember it taking a while and it really depends. I mean it'd be better to talk to I imagine

2434
03:49:20,420 --> 03:49:24,100
Is it like a oral surgeon that would do it at that point if you're getting everything out?

2435
03:49:24,740 --> 03:49:26,740
I wonder what what I wonder, um

2436
03:49:28,020 --> 03:49:32,100
I mean, I don't want to ask personal questions. Yeah, but that that I mean sometimes you do it

2437
03:49:32,180 --> 03:49:37,700
For dental implants and stuff like that too. Oh, okay. It's very big in the hollywood

2438
03:49:38,660 --> 03:49:42,500
Community. Oh crystal. Oh, we get new uh, what?

2439
03:49:49,620 --> 03:49:53,860
Huh. Hmm. Oh might be. Oh, it is. Yeah. Yeah. Why?

2440
03:49:54,580 --> 03:49:59,380
Uh Or don't tell us we don't yeah, no, no, no, no, no

2441
03:49:59,940 --> 03:50:06,260
You don't have to tell us why but um, yeah, it goes. All right. Yeah, I hope I hope that goes. All right. Yeah, okay next

2442
03:50:08,100 --> 03:50:12,180
Uh DLL should games cater to whales or masses?

2443
03:50:12,740 --> 03:50:17,700
For example here ea fc 2026

2444
03:50:18,820 --> 03:50:22,420
Wow Are you gonna let them finish or nope? Yeah, sorry go for it

2445
03:50:23,380 --> 03:50:27,060
They've been altering between reducing the meta based on feedback

2446
03:50:27,540 --> 03:50:33,780
Annoying the pros and increasing it annoying the casuals can following feedback be bad

2447
03:50:34,820 --> 03:50:37,940
Yeah, I mean, I guess that's well luke was way ahead of you

2448
03:50:39,860 --> 03:50:42,420
I think that for a game like

2449
03:50:43,380 --> 03:50:48,660
I think for a company like ea with a mass market product like a soccer game

2450
03:50:49,540 --> 03:50:53,220
um Yes, yes, yes, yes, luke

2451
03:50:54,580 --> 03:50:58,420
Yes, yes, yes, yes um

2452
03:50:58,420 --> 03:51:04,500
Yeah, it's it's tough because you are you're trying to appeal to everyone all at once and that's

2453
03:51:06,820 --> 03:51:13,940
That's tough and if you don't you know, if your game doesn't do 100 million 200 million a billion dollars in sales or whatever then

2454
03:51:14,900 --> 03:51:19,380
For for some reason, even though you were profitable your entire team might get laid off. Um

2455
03:51:20,980 --> 03:51:23,780
You kind of you have to take feedback, but then you also have to

2456
03:51:24,580 --> 03:51:31,460
At some point grow a spine and make a game that has some kind of artistic intent to it

2457
03:51:32,100 --> 03:51:35,460
um or not And just deal with that

2458
03:51:35,460 --> 03:51:39,620
There's always going to be someone who's mad at you because just like running a youtube channel that

2459
03:51:40,180 --> 03:51:45,300
Is watched by millions of people if even 1 of people don't like the direction that you're taking it

2460
03:51:45,620 --> 03:51:53,540
That's going to be like from a million, right? That's 10 000 people that are going to be mad about whatever it is that you did and when you upload every day

2461
03:51:54,020 --> 03:51:57,140
Or when you publish a patch every week or whatever it is

2462
03:51:57,860 --> 03:52:04,340
That that part of that audience or that player base that that is mad is going to is going to shift around and you're just going to

2463
03:52:04,340 --> 03:52:10,580
Feel like well, i'm listening to you guys and now you're telling me I didn't do the right thing and it's just uh

2464
03:52:11,060 --> 03:52:13,780
It's it's a lose lose. It's a lose lose place to be

2465
03:52:14,340 --> 03:52:17,220
Yeah, when I first heard the question it was like, do you think it's better for

2466
03:52:18,020 --> 03:52:20,740
Slop to be generated in flavor a or flavor b

2467
03:52:21,220 --> 03:52:26,180
That's that's basically just how I interpreted that I think sometimes when you receive feedback

2468
03:52:26,260 --> 03:52:30,580
You got to analyze what the like root of that feedback is and sometimes with

2469
03:52:30,900 --> 03:52:34,580
Linus's example when you have this like public thing that lots of people interact with

2470
03:52:34,900 --> 03:52:38,260
Some of the feedback that you're going to receive when super negative

2471
03:52:39,140 --> 03:52:42,900
You might read it and just be like, yeah, okay working as intended

2472
03:52:43,940 --> 03:52:47,860
To be completely honest Maybe the thing that you made just wasn't for that person

2473
03:52:48,020 --> 03:52:52,980
And if they're like, I hate that it does this and you're like, well it doing that is the point

2474
03:52:53,780 --> 03:52:57,860
Then that's okay That's all right

2475
03:52:57,860 --> 03:53:02,660
If you make a horror game and somebody's like, I hate this game zero out of 10. It was scary

2476
03:53:03,540 --> 03:53:05,540
it's like

2477
03:53:06,660 --> 03:53:12,180
Cool nice Maybe that person will ask for a refund and they'll get it and that's all right

2478
03:53:13,300 --> 03:53:15,780
But that was also sort of the point so

2479
03:53:16,740 --> 03:53:18,740
No problem

2480
03:53:20,260 --> 03:53:31,220
Up next Hello LLD usb cable testers range from $15 to over 100 to over 10,000, but yes carry on. Yeah, I mean accurate

2481
03:53:33,380 --> 03:53:39,940
Um, and I have no idea if any of them are any good any advice treedix versus caber q u

2482
03:53:40,500 --> 03:53:43,780
Possible video topic after your new usb cables launch

2483
03:53:44,420 --> 03:53:48,420
I don't know that we would get into that to be honest with you. Um for the like

2484
03:53:49,140 --> 03:53:54,740
12 people that it would affect I looked very briefly at treedix and it seems like it's sort of

2485
03:53:55,940 --> 03:53:58,980
fairly basic

2486
03:53:58,980 --> 03:54:04,180
And or kind of very diy like in terms of the information that they're providing like they're not looking at

2487
03:54:04,980 --> 03:54:09,940
The shape of the eye, you know, they're just kind of like yes. No. No. Yes. No. Yes. No

2488
03:54:11,860 --> 03:54:16,740
What I suspect is that for very basic testing does this cable work

2489
03:54:17,300 --> 03:54:22,020
It might tell you it would it would almost certainly be able to tell you no it's broken

2490
03:54:22,100 --> 03:54:25,220
But I don't know that it's yes would be particularly meaningful to me

2491
03:54:25,700 --> 03:54:30,020
It might be amazing, but I I have no experience with it and I don't know that I have the

2492
03:54:30,660 --> 03:54:34,100
interest in going to a level of

2493
03:54:34,180 --> 03:54:40,340
depth um, that would be required to find out if it's any good when we'd rather just use

2494
03:54:41,060 --> 03:54:43,060
professional level tools and

2495
03:54:44,500 --> 03:54:48,180
And make sure that our cables are good with those and focus on that for now

2496
03:54:49,060 --> 03:54:55,620
Speaking of cables, by the way, now is a great time. Thanks, no key to head over to lttstore.com and sign up for a notification

2497
03:54:55,620 --> 03:54:59,380
For when our true spec cables are going to be launched

2498
03:55:00,100 --> 03:55:03,620
Purpose built lengths. So we want you to get the right length cable for you

2499
03:55:03,860 --> 03:55:06,980
So we'll have more than just the sort of main sizes

2500
03:55:07,460 --> 03:55:11,860
clearly labeled speeds and feeds just like that

2501
03:55:11,860 --> 03:55:13,860
And they won't come off because they are embossed

2502
03:55:15,060 --> 03:55:27,140
And UV resistant silicone style cables, which are nice and flexible and uh feel just not style, right? It's just satisfying. Yes. Yeah, they are

2503
03:55:30,180 --> 03:55:32,180
Hit me Dan

2504
03:55:33,940 --> 03:55:38,260
Uh, last one I've got for you. Hey LLD had the two packages swapped

2505
03:55:38,740 --> 03:55:41,620
And it did not appear like an innocent mistake for both

2506
03:55:42,420 --> 03:55:50,100
Got any fun stories about stolen or swapped packages at LMG or stories about suffering from retail fraud at ncix

2507
03:55:51,300 --> 03:55:55,140
Man, I don't uh, I wasn't really involved in that department

2508
03:55:55,140 --> 03:55:58,260
Like I'm sure if I could get in touch with like ruji or something

2509
03:55:58,340 --> 03:56:00,820
He would be able to tell me all kinds of fun stories

2510
03:56:01,380 --> 03:56:06,900
But uh, what I will say is that core sharers side of the story on some of the

2511
03:56:07,700 --> 03:56:14,180
Stuff that's been going on returns or whatever. Yeah is a little more nuanced than some of the public

2512
03:56:14,820 --> 03:56:23,460
Uh discourse about it I know, right? Uh, we're still waiting to get a little bit more information and whether or not the people there can even really talk to us

2513
03:56:24,180 --> 03:56:26,180
But um, you know

2514
03:56:28,340 --> 03:56:31,620
Hint spoiler um

2515
03:56:31,620 --> 03:56:40,100
Apparently in some of these cases Like it's pretty obvious based on the volume of orders that one individual is trying to place for

2516
03:56:40,740 --> 03:56:45,940
Items that have price errors that you know, they're not acting in good faith. They're just trying to

2517
03:56:47,140 --> 03:56:51,380
Um get a lot of stuff so that they can flip it for profit which

2518
03:56:52,100 --> 03:56:59,540
Uh You know, you're not really the victim anymore at that point. It's certainly not black and white

2519
03:57:00,820 --> 03:57:07,780
Uh, I don't really have I I've actually had really good luck in terms of my packages generally arriving when I order them

2520
03:57:08,820 --> 03:57:13,780
I've had I mean, I've had delays and stuff, but I've I don't think uh, there's only one time

2521
03:57:13,780 --> 03:57:20,500
I had a major issue with the package and I had to drive to like the shipping depot and get it from them at the depot

2522
03:57:20,980 --> 03:57:25,940
And it was because of some there was like a bunch of issues with the package and they wanted it to be like

2523
03:57:26,660 --> 03:57:31,780
Much more officially handed off to the point where I went to the depot for it and they like gave me a shipping refund

2524
03:57:31,780 --> 03:57:36,900
Or something. I don't remember what happened, but it was like very strange. I've definitely had some weird stuff

2525
03:57:37,700 --> 03:57:43,140
Like that that scorpion chair. They just like dropped it off. Oh, dude. Okay. Yeah, I've had one problem

2526
03:57:43,300 --> 03:57:45,460
I had a chair just left in the freaking lawn

2527
03:57:46,420 --> 03:57:50,260
It's stupid All right

2528
03:57:50,260 --> 03:57:56,660
Nice, Dan Please tell me you had your mic on no, but he said lawn chair. That's funny. You have to ding yourself

2529
03:57:56,660 --> 03:58:02,500
I won't tell the show until you do it yourself. Nice. And we'll see you again next week same bad time same bad channel

2530
03:58:03,060 --> 03:58:05,060
Bye

2531
03:58:07,060 --> 03:58:09,060
All right

2532
03:58:15,460 --> 03:58:17,940
Oh
