00:00:00.480 --> 00:00:06.560
Luke Laugher. All right, guys. Welcome to the WAN

00:00:04.880 --> 00:00:10.719
Show. Got another great show for you guys. I'm sure we've done a great show

00:00:08.480 --> 00:00:13.599
once before at the very least. Oh, wow. They turned around the screen on the

00:00:12.480 --> 00:00:20.240
camera. That's going to be really distracting. That's kind of weird. I don't think I can I don't think I cannot

00:00:17.039 --> 00:00:22.000
look at it. Um, hey, one of the uh Hey,

00:00:20.240 --> 00:00:25.600
thanks David. What's wrong with looking at it? Well, no. If you look at it, then

00:00:24.160 --> 00:00:30.400
you're going to look slightly off. Yeah. It's kind of like if you're having a conversation with someone like this,

00:00:28.400 --> 00:00:33.440
like, "Hi, James. How are you today? But it's also kind of weird if you just look

00:00:31.679 --> 00:00:37.360
into the lens too much for too long. People get mad at that, too. No, they

00:00:35.760 --> 00:00:41.520
yelled at me once on a video. Who gets mad about that? Yeah. Okay. Well, what

00:00:39.520 --> 00:00:45.040
happened was I was trying to read the script, and it was the first time that

00:00:43.520 --> 00:00:49.440
it wasn't a tech link or a tech wiki, and I actually had to interact with a product I was using. So, I was trying to

00:00:47.920 --> 00:00:55.440
read the teleprompter, which is right in front of the lens, and then I was trying to look away sometimes at the thing, and

00:00:52.559 --> 00:01:00.719
hold it and present it. Yeah. and I was not skilled enough to go from that back

00:00:57.680 --> 00:01:02.399
to my spot on the scrolling text. And so

00:01:00.719 --> 00:01:05.280
I kept screwing up. So when the final edit came through and the editor was

00:01:03.920 --> 00:01:08.799
done putting it all together, all the takes that worked, every take that

00:01:07.200 --> 00:01:12.560
worked was one where I looked right in the lens without blinking. So the final

00:01:10.640 --> 00:01:17.520
Hi everyone, I am talking about this product. I am not a robot. I am a whoan.

00:01:14.960 --> 00:01:21.360
The final video was super penetrating and like every all the comments were

00:01:19.680 --> 00:01:25.439
like, "Man, you need to look away once in a while. Blink once in a while." I

00:01:23.439 --> 00:01:29.759
was trying guys. Okay, I can see that. But wow is a more conversational format.

00:01:27.680 --> 00:01:34.000
So this is one of those things where uh sorry guys, we will really get to topics

00:01:31.600 --> 00:01:37.600
relatively quickly today. But we're sorry we look the show is having a

00:01:36.240 --> 00:01:44.000
conversation. Okay, so it's one of those things where it's context dependent. So depending on what type of video it is,

00:01:42.079 --> 00:01:47.119
sometimes it's really important to maintain eye contact the whole time.

00:01:45.600 --> 00:01:52.880
Like when I was working on the video this week about the red mags, that was

00:01:49.600 --> 00:01:55.119
the kind of video where because I am

00:01:52.880 --> 00:01:58.719
having a conversation with the person across the table from me who just

00:01:56.640 --> 00:02:02.719
happens to be a camera. It's important to maintain eye contact because guys,

00:02:00.960 --> 00:02:05.759
we're trying to have a real chat here. We're trying to demystify something,

00:02:04.399 --> 00:02:11.360
especially if it's a more sensitive video like after your I what iPhone 10

00:02:09.039 --> 00:02:14.959
or something review when you you made a subsequent video that was like, "Look,

00:02:13.440 --> 00:02:17.840
we kind of screwed up in these ways. I didn't want the video to come out the

00:02:16.640 --> 00:02:23.120
way it did come out and you're having like a frank discussion with the audience. Yes, it's important to

00:02:21.440 --> 00:02:29.599
maintain eye contact. It's just it's a matter of respect. Whereas when you are

00:02:27.440 --> 00:02:34.400
like when you're like if you can imagine something that was like more of a um

00:02:31.760 --> 00:02:38.879
like a narrative type contact content where the characters are interacting

00:02:35.920 --> 00:02:42.080
with each other and it's like hi James, it sure is a pleasure to be uh meeting

00:02:40.720 --> 00:02:46.959
with you here today. That's right Lionus. I can't wait to have a show

00:02:45.200 --> 00:02:49.840
where we actually talk about tech. So, it's all it's all context dependent. So,

00:02:48.560 --> 00:02:56.640
we do have a bunch of great topics for you guys today. Uh, Amazon accidentally

00:02:52.720 --> 00:02:58.879
sold $13,000 plus camera gear for $100

00:02:56.640 --> 00:03:02.319
on Prime Day, which wouldn't be much of a W show topic. there wouldn't be a lot

00:03:00.480 --> 00:03:07.360
of discussion there except that I can actually talk about my experience being

00:03:04.640 --> 00:03:11.360
on the other end as opposed to the consumer who got a great deal being the

00:03:09.680 --> 00:03:15.120
product manager who accidentally priced something for onetenth of what it was

00:03:12.959 --> 00:03:20.560
supposed to be. Um so we'll discuss that. Uh we've also got Neurolink, Elon

00:03:17.680 --> 00:03:25.040
Musk's brain interface company applying to the FDA for human trials. I already

00:03:22.239 --> 00:03:30.799
have mine. He wants to wear that. Um, are you you saying you want me to cover

00:03:26.480 --> 00:03:32.480
up my my world's greatest dad shirt?

00:03:30.799 --> 00:03:35.599
You've got the world's first and second greatest dad. There are some people in

00:03:34.000 --> 00:03:39.519
this office that find that t-shirt offensive.

00:03:37.519 --> 00:03:42.560
Like, if you got one for me, too, and we could both wear it. I didn't. It was a

00:03:40.879 --> 00:03:46.920
gift. If we were if we were co-world's greatest dad, I might feel slightly less

00:03:44.239 --> 00:03:53.040
personally attacked. There's only one greatest one goat. And we're also going

00:03:50.239 --> 00:03:56.720
to cover Facebook's finally getting the fine of $5 billion. Well, actually,

00:03:55.120 --> 00:04:01.200
they're not, but that's the announced amount. Yeah, it still hasn't gone

00:03:58.560 --> 00:04:05.640
through, but 5 billion. See if that number matters. Roll the intro. Roll the

00:04:02.640 --> 00:04:05.640
intro.

00:04:07.360 --> 00:04:13.840
It's lagging apparently again. I I don't I just don't get it. I We streamed for

00:04:11.200 --> 00:04:17.280
half an hour on the test channel. I'll send that off.

00:04:15.920 --> 00:04:22.720
Yeah, please do cuz this is getting ridiculous. Um, like we can't be using

00:04:20.320 --> 00:04:28.560
this exact computer to stream on the test channel and then have Squarespace.

00:04:26.080 --> 00:04:32.160
That doesn't make any sense. Um, for those of you watching on YouTube, we

00:04:30.320 --> 00:04:37.280
would strongly recommend heading over to twitch.tv/Linus.

00:04:34.800 --> 00:04:40.080
Um, yes, I can. I can do that if I if YouTube can't figure out their live

00:04:38.560 --> 00:04:44.000
streaming, then people can go watch on Twitch. The stream's fine over there.

00:04:41.680 --> 00:04:49.120
Um, so we're multireaming. We did a half an hourong test on our other channel and

00:04:46.880 --> 00:04:52.639
it was fine. So, honestly, I don't know what to tell you guys. We have no idea

00:04:50.720 --> 00:04:56.720
what the problem is, but it's clearly not our internet. Uh, clearly not our

00:04:54.800 --> 00:05:03.440
rereaming service because that's working to Twitch on this one and to our test

00:04:59.919 --> 00:05:04.560
YouTube channel. Um, and so, yeah, we

00:05:03.440 --> 00:05:09.840
don't know. We've got the settings identical between them. Um, it's apparently only some people, so there's

00:05:08.560 --> 00:05:14.360
people in chat that are saying there's no lag. So, all I can tell you guys is

00:05:12.000 --> 00:05:18.160
if you are experiencing lag, twitch.tv/linist. Um, we're also having

00:05:16.479 --> 00:05:21.680
some lag issues on Floatplane. Those are unrelated. Those are Floatplane

00:05:19.840 --> 00:05:26.720
related. We have to change from uh Nimble video streamer to a different one

00:05:24.360 --> 00:05:32.800
because basically there's too many of you now and it's we have to make

00:05:29.280 --> 00:05:35.160
something new. So, um, thanks so much

00:05:32.800 --> 00:05:40.520
for your support is pretty much what I'm Tell your

00:05:38.560 --> 00:05:44.880
friends, but get them to trickle in. Yeah. Um, Luke's gonna have some really

00:05:43.039 --> 00:05:49.280
cool Floatplane news next week, but for now, I think the best thing that we can

00:05:46.479 --> 00:05:55.039
do is uh jump right into our highlight topic for the week, which is of course

00:05:51.919 --> 00:05:56.320
the pricing errors on Amazon's Prime

00:05:55.039 --> 00:06:02.000
Day. Now, this isn't something you noticed when you guys were doing your Prime Day stream. No, it wasn't. Um, but

00:05:59.840 --> 00:06:06.319
did you did you cover any camera gear? No, we didn't. So, this was posted by RC

00:06:04.319 --> 00:06:09.919
Mel, I think is how I pronounce that. I'd like to just the hell just for the

00:06:08.240 --> 00:06:14.160
record. Yeah, you have one of the my most hated names on the forum. I do. No,

00:06:12.160 --> 00:06:19.759
this this person I was like, it's just my name. I'm doing the W. Why can't you

00:06:16.400 --> 00:06:22.240
stop? Why won't you stop attacking me?

00:06:19.759 --> 00:06:26.720
You're a You're a bad dad. You have a crap name. You're not a bad dad. You're

00:06:24.240 --> 00:06:31.280
just not the world's greatest anymore. I've been doing this for three weeks

00:06:27.919 --> 00:06:33.120
now. You hate RC May. I've been doing

00:06:31.280 --> 00:06:38.240
the Wand do for like a year and a half or something like that or maybe even two

00:06:35.120 --> 00:06:40.880
years and this person posts all the time

00:06:38.240 --> 00:06:45.280
and I still have to spell and like look and spell the name. It just makes no

00:06:42.960 --> 00:06:51.120
sense in my mind. I can't remember how to spell it ever. So, thanks dude. Maybe

00:06:48.080 --> 00:06:53.280
it's RC May HL, you know? Like maybe

00:06:51.120 --> 00:06:57.199
we're missing something here. Anyway, do you want to want to run us through what

00:06:54.479 --> 00:07:01.360
happened? So on Prime Day, some users, not everybody, but some people saw weird

00:06:59.360 --> 00:07:04.960
prices for lots of different camera gear. So, and this is on the same item.

00:07:03.440 --> 00:07:09.280
Like two different people would see a different price for the same item. They

00:07:07.120 --> 00:07:13.520
all saw the same price, but it wasn't the intended price. Got it. So, it

00:07:11.680 --> 00:07:16.560
started out on one item in particular, and then people noticed that it was

00:07:15.039 --> 00:07:22.560
actually on lots of different items, and it was always the price of $948,

00:07:19.840 --> 00:07:26.160
right? And then uh so there's a forum that a lot of these like deal seekers

00:07:24.400 --> 00:07:30.400
use called Slick Deals. Slick Deals has been around forever actually. You can

00:07:28.479 --> 00:07:33.520
get Slick Deals over there. The sickest. You know what's funny? I'm going to

00:07:31.840 --> 00:07:37.919
totally derail you here cuz I'm rude like that. Um we had thought about

00:07:36.000 --> 00:07:42.240
create you know how Linus Tech Tips doesn't have an award program. Like we

00:07:40.560 --> 00:07:48.080
don't have like a like a loyalty program. No no no not a rewards program.

00:07:46.000 --> 00:07:52.479
We don't have an award program. like when we review something, we won't be

00:07:50.240 --> 00:07:55.919
like four and a half stars out of five, recommend to buy and like we don't have

00:07:54.080 --> 00:07:58.960
like a little badge designed for that. I I just I don't know. It's always felt

00:07:57.360 --> 00:08:03.280
kind of silly to me and we don't do it. But we had considered doing one at one

00:08:01.120 --> 00:08:07.120
point just because we had the best possible names for what the awards would

00:08:05.680 --> 00:08:11.680
be. So Luke and I were each going to have separate ones and um it was going

00:08:10.160 --> 00:08:17.199
to be I can already imagine there was going to be this list. Okay. Lionus's

00:08:14.280 --> 00:08:22.160
likes with like a thumbs up like modeled after a Facebook style thing and then

00:08:19.440 --> 00:08:26.479
Slick's deals. Oh, that's pretty good. So, we figured like, okay, if we were

00:08:24.160 --> 00:08:29.280
going to have an award program, it would have to be cringey like that, but then

00:08:28.080 --> 00:08:34.080
we just kind of never got it off the ground. Anyway, carry on. Yes, Slick Deals. It's a website. Yeah, they posted

00:08:32.800 --> 00:08:38.240
on the forum there and then it kind of spread and lots of people got in on it.

00:08:36.240 --> 00:08:42.159
Apparently, a lot of people made orders and some people's orders have been

00:08:39.760 --> 00:08:46.160
fulfilled. So, some people realized that they were getting slick deals and tried

00:08:45.040 --> 00:08:52.240
to make the best of it. Like, there was this one guy, he bought like $10,000

00:08:49.040 --> 00:08:54.800
worth of stuff for $900 worth of real

00:08:52.240 --> 00:09:00.320
money and then uh Wow. some of it got deliver got actually delivered to him.

00:08:57.440 --> 00:09:04.320
But what happened was Amazon itself with a completely separate system flagged his

00:09:02.720 --> 00:09:09.040
credit card because they thought someone was was using it maliciously like just

00:09:07.279 --> 00:09:13.440
you've never bought 10 cameras before. So they shut it down. So only some of

00:09:10.959 --> 00:09:16.399
the stuff in his cart. Oh, I think maybe maybe he did one order and then he made

00:09:14.959 --> 00:09:21.120
a new cart and then that one would didn't get fulfilled. So he got kind of

00:09:18.320 --> 00:09:25.839
stymied for a different reason. But yeah, some people got off with a ton of

00:09:22.880 --> 00:09:31.760
sweet gear. So there's things like Sony A6000 kits, uh,

00:09:28.519 --> 00:09:36.320
A6500s, 10 to 18 millimeter bundle, um,

00:09:31.760 --> 00:09:37.519
a $2,000 Sony A7 body, Sony A9. All this

00:09:36.320 --> 00:09:43.360
stuff. Apparently there was like a $13,000 big one of those giant lenses

00:09:40.480 --> 00:09:49.360
that people use to zoom in on birds. All of this stuff for like $94.

00:09:45.920 --> 00:09:51.839
Holy crap. I mean, to be clear, the the

00:09:49.360 --> 00:09:56.480
person talking about the $13,000 lens wrote that um Oh, no. Another member

00:09:54.480 --> 00:10:00.839
wrote regarding their Canon EF Oh, no. This is 800 millimeter. Yep. Uh, waiting

00:09:58.640 --> 00:10:07.279
for the cancellation, but that's like 99% off. Um, others reported that they

00:10:04.880 --> 00:10:12.240
successfully price matched gear at retailers like Best Buy.

00:10:09.839 --> 00:10:17.440
So, that is crazy cuz I have seen other times where on like I think it was um

00:10:14.480 --> 00:10:22.320
like a Boxing Day thing y where someone had a crazy deal and then the other

00:10:19.600 --> 00:10:25.360
local retailers just said, "No, we're not doing it. It's too crazy." They

00:10:24.000 --> 00:10:29.839
wouldn't order. They wouldn't match it even though it was their policy. So,

00:10:27.200 --> 00:10:36.320
going back to my days uh as a product manager at an online retailer, um one of

00:10:33.360 --> 00:10:41.440
my one of my big mistakes um early on in my career as a product

00:10:38.560 --> 00:10:46.480
manager was actually on a Mountain Mods case. I remember it pretty well. Um and

00:10:44.880 --> 00:10:51.920
I was pretty new to the product management team. I only had basically

00:10:49.839 --> 00:10:56.959
the only product lines that I was allowed to handle were the ones that

00:10:55.200 --> 00:11:02.000
were not really worth anyone else's time. Like they were either very high

00:10:59.120 --> 00:11:08.240
touch um so very very time consuming with a lot of like nitpicky stupid crap

00:11:04.880 --> 00:11:10.480
or very low margin or like completely

00:11:08.240 --> 00:11:13.920
deadlines that someone else had like just abandoned and just didn't feel like

00:11:12.640 --> 00:11:19.680
dealing with anymore. So they just kind of got shed over to me. That's how you

00:11:16.640 --> 00:11:21.440
get baptized in fire pretty much. Like I

00:11:19.680 --> 00:11:27.920
started out trying to make a name for myself uh with water cooling and like

00:11:24.800 --> 00:11:29.200
weird fringe vendors and Mountain Mods

00:11:27.920 --> 00:11:32.959
was one of them. So here I'm just going to switch over to my screen here. So

00:11:30.959 --> 00:11:38.240
Mountain Mods actually still exists and it's really funny that Case Labs made so

00:11:35.760 --> 00:11:44.640
much noise about how their designs got ripped off by Thermaltake because to my

00:11:42.079 --> 00:11:50.000
knowledge, now I could be wrong. correct me in the chat, but as far as I know,

00:11:47.360 --> 00:11:55.680
Mountain Mods has been around a heck of a lot longer than Case Labs, and they

00:11:52.880 --> 00:12:00.320
are the original cube case. I feel like if there's some kind of like tech like

00:11:58.240 --> 00:12:04.240
the Force, like Star Wars Force, you can sense all the keyboards around the world

00:12:01.920 --> 00:12:08.160
clacking right now to try to investigate this for us. Someone's going to have an

00:12:06.240 --> 00:12:13.440
answer. I know, right? So, Mountain Mods, um, it was one of their Ascension

00:12:11.200 --> 00:12:17.600
cases, I think. Uh, basically they're like kind of a modular case maker. Um,

00:12:15.760 --> 00:12:23.680
and the big problem for them was that their shipping prices into Canada sucked

00:12:21.200 --> 00:12:28.720
donkey balls. So any Canadians that wanted to buy a Mountain Mods case

00:12:25.920 --> 00:12:32.959
couldn't really get one at a reasonable price because they're already super

00:12:30.560 --> 00:12:37.120
expensive because they're uh made in the US still to my knowledge, including the

00:12:35.360 --> 00:12:43.760
actual metal fabrication and powder coating. Um, it looks heavy. And they

00:12:40.639 --> 00:12:44.880
are heavily um kind of customizable.

00:12:43.760 --> 00:12:49.680
They're actually not that heavy. They're aluminum. Um, so they're heavily

00:12:46.920 --> 00:12:53.680
customizable. Uh, they're big and they ship preassembled, so they're like

00:12:51.440 --> 00:12:58.000
freaking huge. And all the accessories are like super expensive and there's all

00:12:55.760 --> 00:13:01.600
these different options. Um, and shipping cross border was a little bit

00:12:59.680 --> 00:13:07.360
tougher back then. Man, their site still sucks. Okay, there we go. Okay, so let's

00:13:04.399 --> 00:13:11.680
just grab like a YouTube UFO is kind of like their OG case. It's changed a lot

00:13:09.760 --> 00:13:16.079
over the years, but I'm willing to bet the pictures on here are from like the

00:13:14.000 --> 00:13:20.000
NF Force 2 days. Like, it really wouldn't surprise me. Look how slow this

00:13:18.560 --> 00:13:25.600
freaking site is, though. You guys might be love hugging it right now. Um, what

00:13:22.880 --> 00:13:28.959
does that mean? Love hugging it. like I bring it up and then everyone like goes

00:13:27.040 --> 00:13:32.240
to their site just to like check it out and it's not used to that kind of

00:13:30.240 --> 00:13:38.000
traffic because they're this super weird little niche vendor. Um so anyway, yeah,

00:13:34.959 --> 00:13:39.040
these are like 360 to $400 cases and as

00:13:38.000 --> 00:13:43.279
soon as you start adding some accessories like you know uh a dual

00:13:41.279 --> 00:13:47.680
power supply mount or like a fancy grill for your radiator or whatever the case

00:13:44.800 --> 00:13:51.120
may be, they get really expensive. And um part of the other problem with them

00:13:49.680 --> 00:13:55.200
is that because they're highly customizable. So, when you click on one

00:13:53.120 --> 00:13:58.959
of the cases, you'll have all these different options for like different

00:13:56.480 --> 00:14:03.519
motherboard trays and uh different drive mounts and all that kind of crazy stuff.

00:14:01.199 --> 00:14:07.519
Um, it was a really really ch I'm finally bringing it back. It was a

00:14:04.800 --> 00:14:14.160
really challenging line for me to manage because unlike a Corsair case where it's

00:14:10.880 --> 00:14:16.160
like this is a 580X. It comes with all

00:14:14.160 --> 00:14:21.120
the things a 580X comes with and is compatible with the things a 580X is

00:14:18.079 --> 00:14:24.399
compatible with. I had to kind of

00:14:21.120 --> 00:14:28.160
pre-make the decision for our customers

00:14:24.399 --> 00:14:31.279
what color, what finish of that color,

00:14:28.160 --> 00:14:34.199
what mounting options in order to kind

00:14:31.279 --> 00:14:39.600
of try to have something that is preconfigured in our warehouse that

00:14:36.480 --> 00:14:42.480
makes sense. And if I made a bad gamble,

00:14:39.600 --> 00:14:48.000
like if I decided that we wanted UV orange acrylic Windows, then if if we

00:14:45.680 --> 00:14:52.000
were stuck with dead stock of that, I had to go rip all those UV orange ones,

00:14:50.399 --> 00:14:55.920
order some clear ones, put them on myself. Like, no one was going to help me with this crap because they all

00:14:54.399 --> 00:14:59.040
thought it was a total waste of time. Ultimately, carrying Mountain Mods was

00:14:57.680 --> 00:15:03.760
actually a total waste of time. We didn't end up making a ton of money on it, but uh you know, we tried. We tried

00:15:02.240 --> 00:15:08.639
Mountains and they're they're cool guys. Like just to be clear, um I actually had

00:15:06.079 --> 00:15:12.959
Mountain Mods um even after we weren't really buying cases from them anymore. I

00:15:10.639 --> 00:15:17.440
had them powder coat my case for my personal rig because I just absolutely

00:15:15.279 --> 00:15:20.079
love their powder coat finish. It's just it's fantastic. Was that available to

00:15:18.959 --> 00:15:24.720
everybody? You could just send yours in and they would finish it and send it back. I have no idea. They did it for

00:15:23.040 --> 00:15:28.399
you. They did it for me though. Nice. Hey, I'm I'm I'm all about I'm all about

00:15:26.560 --> 00:15:34.880
working the angles, man. You know that. I was just like, "Hey, so, uh, if I like

00:15:32.639 --> 00:15:40.240
disassemble I don't like your cases that much. I like my case, but I really like

00:15:38.000 --> 00:15:43.040
your paint finish. Um, can I send it to you?" And they did it for me. It looks

00:15:41.600 --> 00:15:47.040
beautiful to this day. I actually still have that case in mothballs. Uh, in case

00:15:45.440 --> 00:15:52.720
I ever don't have like a rack mounted gaming machine, I'll probably go back to it. Now, can you speak to the other side

00:15:49.920 --> 00:15:56.880
of this issue in terms of when we see this and like the the spin that all

00:15:54.880 --> 00:16:00.320
these articles have is that this was a cool freak occurrence where you could

00:15:58.320 --> 00:16:04.880
get the stuff super cheap, which is amazing for anyone involved who got to

00:16:02.800 --> 00:16:08.880
be there and and got to buy stuff super cheap. And anyone who missed out is

00:16:06.639 --> 00:16:12.880
super regretful. But no one talks about the perspective of the retailer who's

00:16:11.199 --> 00:16:18.560
like, "Man, we just lost a lot of money." This was a $500 case Canadian

00:16:15.759 --> 00:16:21.519
our cost. um cuz the US dollar was actually quite a bit stronger against

00:16:19.920 --> 00:16:26.959
the Canadian dollar at that point in time. So, what happened was I wanted to

00:16:24.880 --> 00:16:32.440
price it at I think I was even trying to blow them out. Like I was trying to get

00:16:28.639 --> 00:16:35.040
rid of them. Um so I had them at I think

00:16:32.440 --> 00:16:38.399
$499.99 or something like that. So you're just trying to break even and

00:16:36.320 --> 00:16:45.360
liquidate these. I'm just trying to flip them. Um so I accidentally put a decimal

00:16:42.160 --> 00:16:48.000
in the wrong place. Now it's funny. We

00:16:45.360 --> 00:16:53.120
actually ended up developing a system later on down the line that would

00:16:50.240 --> 00:16:58.959
highlight red uh highlight yellow and then highlight red anything that was

00:16:55.519 --> 00:17:00.720
marked uh 10 or 20 like some some

00:16:58.959 --> 00:17:03.920
percentage. I think it was yellow if it was below cost and then red if it was

00:17:02.480 --> 00:17:06.959
significantly below our cost. So if it's abnormal it could fly it. So it'll so

00:17:05.520 --> 00:17:10.240
that you'll visually see it on your sheet and you can go do a manual double

00:17:08.559 --> 00:17:13.039
check. But that system didn't exist up until that time cuz apparently they

00:17:11.600 --> 00:17:19.600
called it the Linus system. Yeah. everyone else who had worked there before that just never made boneheaded

00:17:17.039 --> 00:17:25.160
entry errors. Um, but anyway, I accidentally entered uh 49.99.

00:17:26.000 --> 00:17:31.919
Mhm. And the system did manage to autocorrect that I had an extra

00:17:29.679 --> 00:17:37.559
decadated the extra nine and then it was 50 bucks. And it was 50 bucks for a $500

00:17:36.000 --> 00:17:44.080
case. Now there were okay because it was such

00:17:41.200 --> 00:17:49.679
a weird niche item like if we had accidentally priced a hard drive or a

00:17:46.559 --> 00:17:53.600
CPU or something like that high volume a

00:17:49.679 --> 00:17:55.520
high volume item at 10% of the price we

00:17:53.600 --> 00:18:00.160
would have noticed immediately because like our servers would have gone down.

00:17:57.919 --> 00:18:04.000
Oh no, you know we would have had 10,000 people on the site trying to order that

00:18:02.720 --> 00:18:08.880
freaking thing. So, you're saying this was a silent killer and no one noticed

00:18:06.080 --> 00:18:13.760
for weeks? No, no, we noticed the next day because every order at NCX at that

00:18:12.080 --> 00:18:18.080
time was actually like the the credit card processing was manually reviewed by

00:18:15.760 --> 00:18:23.559
a team of people. Um, so they went through, brought it to the CEO instead

00:18:21.360 --> 00:18:29.200
of coming and talking to me about it. Thanks, Dr. No, you know who you are. um

00:18:27.440 --> 00:18:33.760
brought it straight to the CEO instead of coming and talking to me about it

00:18:30.559 --> 00:18:35.240
first and was like, "Hey, what's up with

00:18:33.760 --> 00:18:40.400
this? We're losing uh $450 an order on on this item. What is

00:18:38.640 --> 00:18:46.880
this? Does this seem like sound business to you?" Oh, man. So,

00:18:43.840 --> 00:18:48.640
um I get So, so here's kind of the dark,

00:18:46.880 --> 00:18:54.080
you know, the other side of this. So, I get called into the president's office.

00:18:51.840 --> 00:19:01.200
I am a very junior product manager at this point. Um, I probably haven't made

00:18:57.880 --> 00:19:03.919
$5,000 for the company at this point and

00:19:01.200 --> 00:19:07.039
we've got 10 orders. Oh, really? Now, it wasn't nearly as bad as it could have

00:19:05.360 --> 00:19:11.039
been because someone actually had seen it the night before and pulled it out of

00:19:08.799 --> 00:19:17.280
the sale. Um, and I don't even know if we had 10 units in

00:19:12.840 --> 00:19:20.880
stock, but basically it was it was five

00:19:17.280 --> 00:19:23.520
grand, which to me to a lot of people I

00:19:20.880 --> 00:19:30.559
think is a lot of money, right? $5,000. A lot of money. Sure. Um, and he kind of

00:19:28.200 --> 00:19:36.240
he was like, "Sit down." I was like, "Oh, boy." And he goes, "So, here's what

00:19:34.160 --> 00:19:42.960
here's the situation. What are we going to do about this?" And I was like, "Why

00:19:39.120 --> 00:19:45.200
are you asking me? I don't know. What

00:19:42.960 --> 00:19:50.720
are we going to do about this?" And I was like, "I I I'll call them and I'll

00:19:48.799 --> 00:19:57.200
I'll explain. I'm sorry. We we can't do that. Our bad." and he's like,

00:19:53.960 --> 00:19:58.280
"No, we're gonna honor it. We're gonna

00:19:57.200 --> 00:20:04.400
eat it this time, but that's your training budget

00:20:00.880 --> 00:20:06.559
for the year. Don't do it again." And I

00:20:04.400 --> 00:20:06.559
kind of

00:20:07.559 --> 00:20:13.760
went, "So, so even if you didn't have 10

00:20:11.360 --> 00:20:17.200
in stock, say you had seven in stock, y you ordered the other three and

00:20:15.120 --> 00:20:21.360
fulfilled them because those ones could have been easily cancelled." If I recall

00:20:19.360 --> 00:20:25.120
correctly, the ones we didn't have in stock, we canceled the orders, but the

00:20:23.520 --> 00:20:31.039
ones that we did have in stock, we ate it. Yeah. So, I think we had close to

00:20:27.440 --> 00:20:33.840
however many we sold. Um,

00:20:31.039 --> 00:20:37.360
and apparently this gear was being sold and shipped by Amazon. So, actually

00:20:35.760 --> 00:20:42.720
would have been Amazon and eating this and an Amazon employee getting the talk

00:20:39.760 --> 00:20:46.320
like that you had. So, I guess here is, you know, you'll you'll you'll hear a

00:20:44.480 --> 00:20:54.400
lot of people talk about these kinds of pricing errors. um from a very um I

00:20:51.360 --> 00:20:55.679
would say selfish perspective, they'll

00:20:54.400 --> 00:21:01.600
say, "Well, yeah, maybe you should have made that mistake then." Um to which I

00:20:58.799 --> 00:21:07.480
would respond, "Okay." Um what's your job? Are you a uh I don't know, are you

00:21:04.799 --> 00:21:13.840
a a construction worker? Are you a a drywaller? Are you a a chef? are you uh

00:21:10.960 --> 00:21:19.280
you know whatever whatever it is um if you were to make a mistake that's that

00:21:16.480 --> 00:21:23.840
easy to make if you were to put a nail into the wrong spot remember you are

00:21:22.000 --> 00:21:28.960
just a cog in the machine I'm not saying that you run the company because in our

00:21:26.240 --> 00:21:36.080
case the CEO was in a position to make a decision like let's lose $5,000 today

00:21:32.960 --> 00:21:38.240
you know so you're just a cog in the

00:21:36.080 --> 00:21:45.400
machine if you were to put a nail in the wrong spot 3 in to the right.

00:21:41.799 --> 00:21:48.640
Um, should you just lose

00:21:45.400 --> 00:21:51.760
$5,000? I'm talking about the triviality

00:21:48.640 --> 00:21:53.480
of the error that was made and the total

00:21:51.760 --> 00:22:00.080
consequences. So, you know, on the one hand, yes,

00:21:56.159 --> 00:22:04.240
advertising a false price is bad and

00:22:00.080 --> 00:22:06.039
actually in many cases illegal. But in

00:22:04.240 --> 00:22:11.840
this case, um, I would argue that in some ways the

00:22:09.320 --> 00:22:19.440
consumer knowing that that price is obviously not correct and predatorally

00:22:15.440 --> 00:22:21.360
ordering something is not in the right

00:22:19.440 --> 00:22:26.559
either. Even though their action is completely legal, I would say it is not

00:22:23.840 --> 00:22:30.240
really ethical. Sure. But there's yeah everyone knows

00:22:28.559 --> 00:22:34.159
that uh you know everyone throws around this term of late latest late stage

00:22:32.120 --> 00:22:38.200
capitalism. Capitalism is great. It's the most successful distribution like

00:22:35.840 --> 00:22:43.679
wealth distribution system we've ever invented. But there are some dark sides

00:22:40.640 --> 00:22:45.120
of it that result in oligopies and and

00:22:43.679 --> 00:22:49.200
all sorts of other things and and siloing of wealth and stuff like that.

00:22:47.360 --> 00:22:53.200
And I think because those dark sides of capitalism exist when things like this

00:22:51.280 --> 00:22:59.919
happen in favor of consumer I'm kind of just like today it worked for me.

00:22:57.360 --> 00:23:05.280
Yeah. Do two wrongs make a right? I mean, that becomes, I think, a bigger

00:23:01.440 --> 00:23:07.360
debate at a certain point.

00:23:05.280 --> 00:23:14.440
Do you think there's anyone who uh benefited from this sale who would go,

00:23:10.760 --> 00:23:17.280
"Ah, you know what? Cancel the

00:23:14.440 --> 00:23:21.440
order. This I don't deserve this $5,000 camera." Well, I think they would say,

00:23:19.280 --> 00:23:27.679
"Yeah, go ahead." Uh, well, okay. I think it takes a particular type of

00:23:24.400 --> 00:23:29.679
person to go and like uh again, you

00:23:27.679 --> 00:23:36.360
know, when I talk about being predatory, I'm not talking about ordering the $500

00:23:32.960 --> 00:23:39.200
camera for $100.

00:23:36.360 --> 00:23:42.480
That's maybe believable. You know, you might not even look that closely at it.

00:23:40.799 --> 00:23:48.559
You might think it's it's a it's a betock one, the $13,000 lens for $94.

00:23:46.080 --> 00:23:52.960
Yeah. or or going and ordering, placing six or seven separate orders, trying to

00:23:50.880 --> 00:23:59.039
get as many of them as you can. Like ultimately, that is it's not stealing

00:23:57.039 --> 00:24:02.720
because someone is voluntarily giving it to you. But I'm going to go ahead. I'm

00:24:01.600 --> 00:24:07.200
going to say something super controversial and I'm going to say by

00:24:04.720 --> 00:24:11.080
the same logic, you know, the the settlers here in North America didn't

00:24:09.039 --> 00:24:16.880
steal land from the Native Americans then because they in many cases gave it

00:24:13.919 --> 00:24:20.480
up voluntarily not realizing or understanding what the deal they were

00:24:18.640 --> 00:24:25.840
making was. Like I would make the argument that that retailer or that

00:24:23.120 --> 00:24:30.480
provider of product didn't know that that was what was happening and that's

00:24:27.919 --> 00:24:34.799
clearly predatory. Well, it's a little different because

00:24:31.520 --> 00:24:37.120
this is probably an error. But as a

00:24:34.799 --> 00:24:42.799
parent, if you found out that your kid got was one such person that got the

00:24:39.520 --> 00:24:44.240
$13,000 lens for it, you would make you

00:24:42.799 --> 00:24:51.360
would have to talk to and make them return it. Y interesting. Sucks for your

00:24:47.600 --> 00:24:54.240
kids. Is there a line where like, okay,

00:24:51.360 --> 00:24:58.400
if they get the $500 one for $100? Yes. That's kind of justifiable. Yeah. To me,

00:24:55.840 --> 00:25:02.960
it's believable. If they get one that's like $2,000 for $100, you're making them

00:25:00.559 --> 00:25:06.640
return it. But if they get something extreme that you're like, "Okay, don't

00:25:05.120 --> 00:25:10.320
tell anybody that's crazy." Like you get you just keep it. Like if they find a

00:25:08.159 --> 00:25:13.760
duffel bag of like a billion dollars, several dollar truck, if they find like

00:25:12.320 --> 00:25:22.000
a duffel bag of money that's like $3 million in it, you're like, "Okay, just don't tell anybody. Let's just move."

00:25:19.039 --> 00:25:25.760
See, that's the thing. Okay, it's still unethical,

00:25:23.679 --> 00:25:28.640
but if I found a duffel bag of money on the street, I've actually I've actually

00:25:27.440 --> 00:25:33.039
thought about this. I have theory crafted this for myself. If I found a

00:25:31.600 --> 00:25:38.799
duffel bag of money on the street, I'm going to use an arbitrary number, but let's say it has $5 million in it. And

00:25:37.039 --> 00:25:44.400
I'm talking Canadian rupees, so it's not like, you know what? No, let's say 5

00:25:40.480 --> 00:25:46.880
million US. Okay, $5 million US. Now, my

00:25:44.400 --> 00:25:51.440
first instinct, wait a second. Yeah. Can we just do then? You have to fence US

00:25:50.000 --> 00:25:57.039
dollars to Canadian and stuff. Can we just make it whatever your home currency is? You find a bunch of money. Okay,

00:25:54.559 --> 00:26:01.919
fine. You find 5 million US equivalent in your home currency. So for us, that's

00:25:58.720 --> 00:26:04.400
about $6.5 million. Okay, we good. Sure.

00:26:01.919 --> 00:26:10.240
All right, we can go forward now. So, okay, I find $5 million in a bag. Now,

00:26:07.360 --> 00:26:15.679
my first instinct is actually fear. Yeah, sure. Why is this here? Who's

00:26:12.720 --> 00:26:19.200
watching it? Um, you know, I I open it because I'm like, you know, let's say I

00:26:17.440 --> 00:26:23.200
open it because I'm earnestly trying to return it to the owner, right? And I

00:26:21.120 --> 00:26:27.360
open it and I'm like, "Holy crap, it's full of money." Um, there's no

00:26:26.159 --> 00:26:31.200
identifying information in it whatsoever. Right. So, you are supposed

00:26:29.679 --> 00:26:36.960
to turn it into the police. That's what you're supposed to do. Is that a law? I

00:26:34.240 --> 00:26:44.880
believe so. Yes. um you have to give it to them to give whoever lost it some

00:26:40.960 --> 00:26:46.720
reasonable amount of time to claim it

00:26:44.880 --> 00:26:49.919
and then after that I believe theoretically it's supposed to be

00:26:47.919 --> 00:26:53.440
forfeited back to you but I think in the cases of very valuable or very large

00:26:51.600 --> 00:26:58.240
sums of cash that might not necessarily be the case um and it might just go to

00:26:55.520 --> 00:27:02.400
the crown well you're you can you can be relatively sure that it's laundered

00:27:00.640 --> 00:27:07.520
money or dirty money anyway you can be relatively sure of that yes

00:27:04.200 --> 00:27:09.840
So with that in mind, even though it's

00:27:07.520 --> 00:27:14.000
unethical, I I thought about this actually like on a plane ride. I'm

00:27:11.919 --> 00:27:16.960
pretty sure my course of action I was like lying awake one night. I couldn't

00:27:15.440 --> 00:27:21.200
sleep and I was like I don't remember why it came up. But it doesn't matter. It doesn't matter. The point is I'm

00:27:19.520 --> 00:27:28.320
pretty sure this is what I do. I would take it home and I would bury it

00:27:24.919 --> 00:27:31.279
somewhere. Just I would just bury it and

00:27:28.320 --> 00:27:36.080
I would wait for some very long period of time. If someone came looking for it,

00:27:34.240 --> 00:27:40.720
I'd want to have it all because I don't know who's showing up for it. Could be

00:27:38.240 --> 00:27:45.240
cops, could be drug dealers, could be human traffickers, no idea. But whoever

00:27:44.240 --> 00:27:51.039
they are, I I want some kind of credible

00:27:48.799 --> 00:27:55.919
plausible deniability story about how I was I was keeping it safe and trying to

00:27:53.440 --> 00:27:59.279
get in touch with whoever owned it. Here you go. Go away. Please never talk to me

00:27:57.760 --> 00:28:04.640
again. You probably get beat up, but they might but they might kill me. Yeah.

00:28:01.440 --> 00:28:07.960
Okay. Okay. So, after some period of

00:28:04.640 --> 00:28:11.440
time, let's say 18 months, 2

00:28:07.960 --> 00:28:13.399
years, I'd keep it. I'd keep it. It

00:28:11.440 --> 00:28:18.320
would be unethical and I would know it's unethical. But given who the victim was,

00:28:16.799 --> 00:28:22.480
we're not talking some random blue collar worker who's just trying to do their job. We're talking probably drug

00:28:21.120 --> 00:28:28.320
dealers and human traffickers or whatever. We're talking $5 million in a duffel bag. There's no legitimate reason

00:28:25.840 --> 00:28:32.640
for that to exist. Um, given who the victim is.

00:28:30.480 --> 00:28:37.600
Yeah, it's good. I don't care. It's a good plan. I like it. I don't know that

00:28:34.880 --> 00:28:42.080
I would go to my house first. I might just drive around. I don't know.

00:28:40.159 --> 00:28:44.880
Okay. You know what? Actually, that's I'm not going to be like, "Oh, now that

00:28:43.520 --> 00:28:49.120
you say that, yes, I did think of that. I actually did I had considered that. I

00:28:47.120 --> 00:28:53.840
would I would want to make sure I didn't have a tail." Um but but I would end up

00:28:51.840 --> 00:28:57.679
at my house eventually and I would bury it at my house. Would you pick it up

00:28:55.919 --> 00:29:02.640
right away or would you just go and sit down at a bench within eyeshot for Oh, I

00:29:00.080 --> 00:29:06.240
would pick it up right away. I'd pick it up right away for sure. But then what I

00:29:04.799 --> 00:29:12.000
would do is I would pick it up right away and I would wait nearby with it. So

00:29:09.600 --> 00:29:15.039
that way if someone were to show up and I'd be like sitting on my phone or

00:29:13.440 --> 00:29:19.039
something. If someone were to show up, I'd be like, "Oh yeah, I totally noticed

00:29:17.120 --> 00:29:23.520
that this was very weird." And I was looking in the news to see if like who

00:29:21.279 --> 00:29:28.240
it might go back to. And I was I was about to call the police. Here you go.

00:29:25.520 --> 00:29:34.799
We're super cool, right? Bye. Like I would I would pretend that I was at

00:29:31.760 --> 00:29:36.720
least making some kind of naive. Just

00:29:34.799 --> 00:29:41.480
Just don't kill me. Playing dumb. Yeah. Just don't kill me. Playing dumb is not

00:29:38.159 --> 00:29:41.480
a bad bet.

00:29:41.840 --> 00:29:47.279
Well, how did we get on this? If you if you

00:29:45.279 --> 00:29:51.279
got one of those cameras, I say keep it. You're a good person. I remember when I

00:29:49.360 --> 00:29:54.880
was in in university when terabyte hard drives were first coming out, there was

00:29:52.720 --> 00:29:57.760
an error like that. I forget what company it was, but they were going for

00:29:56.240 --> 00:30:01.679
like 60 bucks or something like that, which was a steal at the time. And yeah,

00:29:59.760 --> 00:30:06.880
I regretted not being able to cash in on it.

00:30:03.520 --> 00:30:08.320
Okay, but remember too, that's that's 60

00:30:06.880 --> 00:30:15.919
bucks. Like it's somewhat credible. And besides, there's a difference between ordering one and

00:30:12.440 --> 00:30:19.039
ordering 20. So actually yeah, one's

00:30:15.919 --> 00:30:21.440
smarter. So, pricing errors would happen

00:30:19.039 --> 00:30:24.799
fairly often at NCIX. And I can tell you right now, if you're the guy that orders

00:30:22.960 --> 00:30:27.760
one, we were far more likely to let it go. And if you were the guy that orders

00:30:26.240 --> 00:30:34.399
10, we were far more likely to tell you to go cram it up your butt. You get

00:30:32.360 --> 00:30:39.039
nothing. Because the thing that you got to understand is in any case like this,

00:30:36.320 --> 00:30:43.760
it's always a judgment call. And they're going to make a decision case by case

00:30:40.559 --> 00:30:46.880
basis. How much was this our fault? How

00:30:43.760 --> 00:30:49.440
much is our total overall loss? Um, how

00:30:46.880 --> 00:30:54.320
much of a complete a-hole is this particular individual being about it?

00:30:51.600 --> 00:30:57.200
Like if someone came to us and was like threatening to Am I supposed to drink

00:30:55.840 --> 00:31:01.520
out of this? You can if you want. It's yours. Is it good? Well, it's not mine.

00:30:59.200 --> 00:31:04.720
Oh, it's it's brand new. Oh, yeah. Right. Uh, we're launching a new one.

00:31:02.880 --> 00:31:08.399
There's ice in here, too. Check it out. New water bottle. There's ice in this.

00:31:06.720 --> 00:31:14.480
Yeah. They don't come with ice. No, they don't come with ice. They don't come with bath water, either, thankfully. So,

00:31:11.360 --> 00:31:15.600
this is the new limited edition. I don't

00:31:14.480 --> 00:31:22.640
know. We might make more of them. You never know. But we didn't do that many of them. But this is the Stealth Linus

00:31:19.840 --> 00:31:27.760
Tech Tips water bottle. So, gone is the orange logo in is the matte black logo.

00:31:26.559 --> 00:31:32.720
Well, it's actually kind of a glossy black, but the whole thing's Oh, this is the design that I was like, "Yeah, do

00:31:30.559 --> 00:31:36.159
this one." Yeah. Sweet. So, we decided to do both. Um, but we did the orange

00:31:34.720 --> 00:31:39.919
one first, and then we just had them. The orange ones are selling so well that

00:31:38.399 --> 00:31:43.640
we were like, "Okay, let's do more orange ones." And what the hey, let's do

00:31:41.919 --> 00:31:46.640
a stealth one, too. So, ltstore.com. You guys are going to want

00:31:45.360 --> 00:31:52.240
to check that out. It's the same price as the other one. I like stealth. Yeah. And there's a deal. Oh, right. And

00:31:50.399 --> 00:31:57.519
there's a deal. Bundle. I forgot about that. Okay. So, this week is the Stealth

00:31:55.519 --> 00:32:00.559
bundle. I don't have to actually give them an offer code, do I? Nick, it's

00:31:58.960 --> 00:32:05.519
automatically applied. Automatically applied. So, all you got to do is scroll

00:32:03.039 --> 00:32:10.960
right past the underwear or don't and buy that, too. Yeah. Or buy

00:32:07.600 --> 00:32:13.360
that, too. Um, and go ahead and add to

00:32:10.960 --> 00:32:17.399
the cart the stealth hoodie in your size of choice. God damn it. How cute is

00:32:15.519 --> 00:32:22.480
Colton, isn't he? The Stealth water bottle, which

00:32:21.039 --> 00:32:30.600
we'll have pictures later. Which we'll have pictures shortly, but it looks like this. You guys saw it. And the LTT hat

00:32:26.960 --> 00:32:34.159
in black, which I love. And bippity

00:32:30.600 --> 00:32:36.159
boppity well bundle. Boom. You get the

00:32:34.159 --> 00:32:40.000
hat for free. So there's no indication that this bundle exists until you make

00:32:37.760 --> 00:32:44.760
it yourself in your cart. To be here to know about it. You might call it a

00:32:41.360 --> 00:32:44.760
stealth bundle.

00:32:47.279 --> 00:32:54.880
That's so sweet. But yeah, it's automatically applied to your cart. Yeah. So it'll automatically apply to

00:32:51.279 --> 00:32:56.480
your cart. So guys Oh, what the heck?

00:32:54.880 --> 00:33:03.760
Dang it. You guys should try to put other things in your cart and see what happens. Oh, you never know. Merch might

00:33:00.960 --> 00:33:09.120
just show up at your house. My stupid kids. They play with my They play with

00:33:06.720 --> 00:33:13.440
the strings on my hoods. They pull them out. See, even though

00:33:11.679 --> 00:33:16.640
it's No, there's a knot in it, so it's not going to come out easily, but they

00:33:15.120 --> 00:33:19.600
always screwing around. See, we have preventative measures for this. We

00:33:18.240 --> 00:33:23.200
thought of this in the design, but they like your kids foiled you. Work hard at

00:33:21.600 --> 00:33:29.519
it. I don't have a red hat. I only have the black one. So, this one's pretty nice. Get it. Anyway, um so yeah, it's

00:33:27.039 --> 00:33:33.679
the hoodie that I'm wearing right now, which can be configured with the uh the

00:33:31.760 --> 00:33:38.000
strings even, but you know, your mileage may vary on that. So, this one with the

00:33:36.000 --> 00:33:41.440
phone pocket and the uh Does that have a water bottle pocket? Does not have a

00:33:39.440 --> 00:33:43.679
water bottle. Where the heck's my phone? I don't know where my phone is. I mean,

00:33:42.480 --> 00:33:47.600
yeah, you can put water. It does have a water bottle pocket. Yeah. So, it's got the phone pocket. I wouldn't actually

00:33:46.399 --> 00:33:51.519
recommend putting a water bottle in it. That'll stretch it. Um this is my

00:33:49.919 --> 00:33:56.480
hoodie. Don't screw with my hoodie. So, it's this one.

00:33:53.760 --> 00:34:00.799
It's the black on black hat and it's the black on black water bottle. Add all

00:33:58.640 --> 00:34:05.840
those to your cart and you will get $20 off which is basically the price of the

00:34:03.200 --> 00:34:11.599
hat. And uh so it's kind of like getting a free hat. It's so like unusual that I

00:34:09.599 --> 00:34:14.320
love this hat because usually when I try on a hat, for some reason, I don't know

00:34:12.879 --> 00:34:20.560
if it's my head shape or whatever, but I get these weird creases like right here and here. These ones, they're just

00:34:18.440 --> 00:34:24.560
perfect. Great for covering up your greasy hair, which is uh most of the

00:34:23.200 --> 00:34:30.960
week. Not that bad today. Most of the week for me. I'm going I'm going with my hair today. I'm not much of a hat guy

00:34:27.919 --> 00:34:33.440
every day, but um I burn in about 8

00:34:30.960 --> 00:34:37.520
minutes outside, so I actually do wear it like a When I wear a that hat and a

00:34:35.440 --> 00:34:42.159
hoodie, my wife says that I look like I'm from Abbottzford. From Abbottzford?

00:34:40.159 --> 00:34:46.720
What does that even mean? As opposed to Vancouver, I guess.

00:34:44.720 --> 00:34:50.800
I don't know. Um Nurling. Hey, what's this other shirt you have on? Oh, right.

00:34:49.119 --> 00:34:56.399
LTX. Okay. Are we doing sponsor? Let's do SP. You know what? Let's do sponsors

00:34:52.560 --> 00:34:59.520
now. LTX 2019, baby. It's going to be

00:34:56.399 --> 00:35:02.160
flipping sick. This is my staff shirt.

00:34:59.520 --> 00:35:05.760
Woo. I got staff. Really excited. I mean, look, if we're pimping everything,

00:35:03.599 --> 00:35:11.200
I might as well just be like, "Yep, we've got the underwear now, too." Yeah.

00:35:09.280 --> 00:35:14.320
I actually got our first customer feedback on the underwear already. Oh,

00:35:12.720 --> 00:35:18.119
yeah. Yeah. Someone tagged me in a status update on the forum. Protight.

00:35:16.800 --> 00:35:23.680
And uh yeah, sure. Yeah, sure, James. Um

00:35:22.400 --> 00:35:28.800
yeah, they they messaged me on the forum. They were like, "Wow, I can't believe I got it so fast cuz we launched

00:35:27.440 --> 00:35:33.359
it a couple days ago. They got it yesterday." So, they got it basically

00:35:31.119 --> 00:35:36.480
immediately. Where were they located? Um they were like, "Yeah, I'm I'm actually

00:35:34.800 --> 00:35:40.960
not sure." And I couldn't share that information anyway, but um I guess I

00:35:39.520 --> 00:35:46.160
could if it was vague enough. Yeah, I don't know. I don't know where they are in Canada, in the US. No idea. but they

00:35:44.400 --> 00:35:50.160
got it already and they're ordering two more two more packs. They're like,

00:35:47.760 --> 00:35:53.280
"Yeah, I love it." That's saying a lot. Having nine pairs of underwear, that's

00:35:51.760 --> 00:35:56.240
like going to be probably going to be half of this person's whole repertoire

00:35:55.119 --> 00:36:00.720
of underwear. Yeah. I mean, if they do weekly laundry, maybe their whole one um

00:35:59.119 --> 00:36:04.240
and yeah, they were just like, "Yeah, I ordered one as a test and I'm ordering

00:36:02.960 --> 00:36:11.119
two more. They're they're freaking awesome. Love them." And that's saying a lot, especially when you consider that

00:36:06.880 --> 00:36:13.359
they're $50 $50 US for three packs or

00:36:11.119 --> 00:36:18.560
excuse me, for three pairs. That's not exorbitant.

00:36:16.160 --> 00:36:23.520
US dollars. There are lots in speaking in Canadian dollars. Um,

00:36:21.839 --> 00:36:26.960
which I feel like buying power-wise is probably the same. Like if you're in the

00:36:24.960 --> 00:36:32.240
US and you buy $20 underwear, it probably hurts you the same as $20

00:36:28.800 --> 00:36:35.240
underwear in the in Canada. Yeah. Um, if

00:36:32.240 --> 00:36:38.640
you find good underwear that's

00:36:35.240 --> 00:36:40.480
$22, that's like a good deal. Cuz

00:36:38.640 --> 00:36:44.480
there's a lot of boxers that think they should be worth $35. It depends what

00:36:42.880 --> 00:36:49.760
you're used to. Cuz if you're like a Lululemon shopper, Booy Yeah. my whole

00:36:46.960 --> 00:36:53.920
drawer then before the line of Yeah. $22 underwear probably doesn't shock you.

00:36:51.680 --> 00:36:59.440
Whereas the Lululemon ones are $22 or $25. That's why they're so wicked.

00:36:56.720 --> 00:37:03.839
And then but if you're a Hannes shopper Yeah. and you buy, you know, a 30 pack

00:37:01.599 --> 00:37:08.800
of underwear for 10 bucks at like, you know, Costco or whatever. Look, even the

00:37:06.640 --> 00:37:14.640
cheap brands are more. I'm exaggerating. I'm exaggerating. I'm just saying if you

00:37:10.400 --> 00:37:16.720
buy like, you know, uh, Acme Acme, you

00:37:14.640 --> 00:37:21.839
know, palette of underwear. What are they actually? They're like $6 a pair. I

00:37:18.880 --> 00:37:26.640
have no idea. The la I have the last time I bought underwear was my wife buys

00:37:25.440 --> 00:37:31.040
my underwear. I don't I don't know how much underwear costs. Uh, all I know is

00:37:29.119 --> 00:37:36.560
what I did in terms of like price comparison for these and the material

00:37:33.760 --> 00:37:46.640
quality is more comparable to your 25 to $35 per pair underwear and our pricing

00:37:40.560 --> 00:37:49.440
is more like uh 15 yeah $16 a pair $165

00:37:46.640 --> 00:37:53.040
a pair. So I feel like yes they're expensive but also they're not

00:37:51.359 --> 00:37:57.240
unreasonable. And it's part of it is just the brand that we're trying to

00:37:54.640 --> 00:38:02.880
build for the merch is like look it's unapologetically not cheap but it's also

00:38:01.200 --> 00:38:06.720
not basic. Like it's nice. You'll like it. Um I'm trying. How much does

00:38:05.200 --> 00:38:10.800
underwear? I typed in underwear on cost.com and the first thing that comes

00:38:08.480 --> 00:38:14.000
up is depends. Your screen's not uh sharing with me for some reason. Oh

00:38:12.400 --> 00:38:17.359
wait, you're using your laptop instead of the second stream laptop. I didn't

00:38:15.839 --> 00:38:22.720
even know that that laptop that the second stream laptop can share. Oh yeah,

00:38:19.520 --> 00:38:26.640
it can. Okay, here we go. $15 for

00:38:22.720 --> 00:38:28.320
Champion men's boxer briefs, five pack.

00:38:26.640 --> 00:38:34.079
$3 a pair. So, that's really cheap. That's cheap. We are literally five to

00:38:31.200 --> 00:38:39.599
six times the price of that. Wow, that train is really loud when the bays open,

00:38:36.000 --> 00:38:42.760
isn't it? That is uh that is fantastic.

00:38:39.599 --> 00:38:46.640
That's your underwear rolling

00:38:42.760 --> 00:38:48.160
out to a mailbox near you. Do people

00:38:46.640 --> 00:38:51.440
like the underwear colors? Are there any colors that um people would like to see?

00:38:49.839 --> 00:38:54.720
Do we know that yet? I have hit us up in the chat. Yeah, we're waiting to hear

00:38:52.880 --> 00:38:58.680
back from people. People are complaining about the lag, guys. We got We got

00:38:56.400 --> 00:39:04.320

YouTube is dropping all the frames. We

00:39:04.320 --> 00:39:09.520
don't know what to tell you guys. We got to make some pe pink underwear at some

00:39:07.920 --> 00:39:12.640
point. We should use holiday underwear, Christmas pattern. That'll be awesome.

00:39:11.200 --> 00:39:17.920
The minimum order quantities for underwear are really high. Really? Yeah.

00:39:15.280 --> 00:39:23.520
So, doing just like a whole bunch of different patterns and stuff is

00:39:20.200 --> 00:39:25.760
maybe not uh on the road map anytime

00:39:23.520 --> 00:39:28.800
soon. We got to do Christmas. We'll see how it goes. We'll see how it goes. The

00:39:27.359 --> 00:39:31.920
nice thing about Christmas undies is you can if you have leftover product, just

00:46:23.119 --> 00:46:30.800
but also there isn't. It's it's the the the same Nintendo Switch but different.

00:46:27.680 --> 00:46:33.760
If you buy a Nintendo Switch to now.

00:46:30.800 --> 00:46:38.079
Yes. Or Hold on. Is it now? No, it's in mid August. Mid August. If in mid August

00:46:35.680 --> 00:46:42.240
you buy a Nintendo Switch and a past version of you in the present now buys a

00:46:40.640 --> 00:46:48.480
Nintendo Switch, you will have bought two different Nintendo Switches.

00:46:44.720 --> 00:46:50.000
Yes. Unless you get old stock and the

00:46:48.480 --> 00:46:53.440
future you gets old stock and then that's a bummer. So you're in mid August

00:46:51.760 --> 00:46:58.480
buying a Nintendo Switch. which happens to have been on the shelf since at least

00:46:55.520 --> 00:47:02.079
today that sucks because the new ones are going to have improved battery life

00:47:00.000 --> 00:47:06.800
pretty significantly improved. The current ones that are on shelves right

00:47:04.240 --> 00:47:12.560
now, they claim battery life of 2 and 12 to 6 and 1/2 hours, which is a big

00:47:08.560 --> 00:47:15.440
range, but it goes from pretty decent to

00:47:12.560 --> 00:47:21.760
like depending on the game and how hot it is and all sorts of stuff. The new

00:47:18.240 --> 00:47:24.440
ones are going to have 4.5 to 9 hours.

00:47:21.760 --> 00:47:29.760
So that's like on the low end of the new switches. The lowest end according to

00:47:26.960 --> 00:47:33.760
this claim is like in the 66th percentile of the old ones. That's

00:47:32.480 --> 00:47:39.760
pretty good. And you're not going to pay anything more for that. That's just going to be the new standard switch. So

00:47:37.280 --> 00:47:46.240
the the word on the street, if you hang out on sites that really follow like

00:47:42.640 --> 00:47:49.440
silicon news closely, is that this is

00:47:46.240 --> 00:47:51.359
because they had to do a like basically

00:47:49.440 --> 00:47:54.880
they were just doing a new spin because they needed to move to a new process or

00:47:53.200 --> 00:47:59.440
they needed it for the switch light or something like that. Like um and since

00:47:57.760 --> 00:48:04.720
they were doing it anyway, they might as well just put it in the fullsize switch

00:48:02.319 --> 00:48:09.200
and then they can have better battery life. Like basically it's a power

00:48:06.240 --> 00:48:12.160
consumption uh decreasing move that they've done here. It's not a different

00:48:10.640 --> 00:48:15.440
battery. Yeah, it's not a different battery. They have altered the power

00:48:13.839 --> 00:48:20.079
consumption of the processor in the Nintendo Switch. So they figured, oh what the hey, we're doing it anyway. We

00:48:18.079 --> 00:48:23.520
might as well put it in the Switch. Um the product model number doesn't even

00:48:22.000 --> 00:48:27.200
change. This will have better battery life even

00:48:25.280 --> 00:48:30.079
than the Switch Light. Yeah. Which has better battery life than the old one.

00:48:28.559 --> 00:48:33.040
Well, I would think then just for the full because the Switch Light is small.

00:48:31.760 --> 00:48:37.200
So, I would think for the full-size Switch, they're just putting the same battery as the original one, and it just

00:48:36.079 --> 00:48:43.119
happens to be a bigger one than the light. Yeah. But they would have needed this more power efficient chip in order

00:48:40.960 --> 00:48:47.680
to make the Switch Light have a reasonable battery life at all while

00:48:44.880 --> 00:48:52.000
also being quite a bit smaller. Right. Um, the rumor at this point is that an

00:48:50.160 --> 00:48:56.319
enhanced version of the Switch targeted at avid gamers is also in production,

00:48:54.240 --> 00:49:02.720
but Nintendo has not indicated that this is the case as of yet. With that said,

00:48:59.200 --> 00:49:04.319
based on this new manufacturing process,

00:49:02.720 --> 00:49:10.319
if they were to produce a more powerful chip and target 2.5 to 6.5 hours of

00:49:08.079 --> 00:49:14.000
gameplay like the original Switch, maybe they could do a Switch Pro or a Switch

00:49:12.319 --> 00:49:18.400
What do you think they would call it? Wow. Are there other uh

00:49:16.040 --> 00:49:22.800
Nintendo consoles that have had iterations like that? Pro

00:49:20.280 --> 00:49:25.800
monikers. Have they ever done like a DS Pro?

00:49:25.839 --> 00:49:34.319
Well, they did lots of different vers Oh, advanced with Game Boy an SP,

00:49:32.480 --> 00:49:38.800
but what about on actual consoles like a 64?

00:49:36.880 --> 00:49:42.160
Yeah. I mean, they did like a Super Nintendo. That was a long time ago,

00:49:40.559 --> 00:49:46.119
though. Super Switch. I I doubt it. Super Nintendo wasn't just an iteration.

00:49:43.599 --> 00:49:50.240
That was a whole new Yeah. And but like Nintendo's naming for things is so weird

00:49:48.480 --> 00:49:55.839
cuz like one time that they have maintained interconole compatibility was

00:49:53.280 --> 00:50:00.640
with the Wii and the Wii U. So what? Switch U. But that was a complete

00:49:58.000 --> 00:50:05.520
failure. Yeah, they'll never do that. We don't say that anymore. Um, you know, if

00:50:03.599 --> 00:50:09.440
it was anyone else, you know, I'd be like switch GT, like that would be a

00:50:07.839 --> 00:50:14.640
more conventional North American thing to do or like a Switch XT, you know,

00:50:12.800 --> 00:50:19.359
like put a suffix on it. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Um, but I can't see Nintendo doing

00:50:17.200 --> 00:50:24.000
that. That's just not really They should just put another S. The Switch. The

00:50:21.200 --> 00:50:30.559
double S S. Okay. I wouldn't put anything past them. I mean, they named a

00:50:26.240 --> 00:50:35.200
console where you grab a thing like this

00:50:30.559 --> 00:50:37.119
and wave it around the Wii. Like I It's

00:50:35.200 --> 00:50:43.440
I've never heard anyone make that association.

00:50:39.520 --> 00:50:45.440
Really? Yeah. You've never heard anyone

00:50:43.440 --> 00:50:52.640
make the association between the Wii and a penis? And saying we like together?

00:50:50.160 --> 00:50:56.240
No. What? No, I've never heard that. No, no, no. Not Not doing it together. No,

00:50:54.880 --> 00:51:02.400
but you were saying I thought you meant we Oh, we like we e. Yeah. Oh, no. I

00:51:00.240 --> 00:51:06.319
haven't heard that either. Shut up. Yes, you have. I'm joking. I

00:51:04.720 --> 00:51:10.800
don't even believe you right now, man. I'm younger than you. That's I was like

00:51:08.079 --> 00:51:15.839
14 when that came out. And at 14, you weren't making pee and wiener jokes. No.

00:51:13.520 --> 00:51:20.559
No, you were above that. You heard it here first, guys. James James has

00:51:18.559 --> 00:51:24.640
matured as as a human being in a very unusual fashion. Do you see this? He

00:51:22.480 --> 00:51:29.440
start You see this? He started out with a ve very highbrow sense of humor and

00:51:27.760 --> 00:51:34.800
then he's degraded from there. There are no loud children. I only have the shirt.

00:51:33.040 --> 00:51:39.760
Do you think as a company like does Nintendo have to get these old soon to

00:51:37.680 --> 00:51:45.440
be inferior switches off the shelves before they can like if you buy one

00:51:43.520 --> 00:51:48.800
before the new one comes out is there a period of time where you can exchange it

00:51:46.880 --> 00:51:52.240
like honoring the sale price? So, I think the store is just going to end up

00:51:50.160 --> 00:51:56.040
eating it and they might send it back to Nintendo and Nintendo might have some

00:51:54.319 --> 00:52:01.359
kind of betock way to to dump old inventory out.

00:51:59.200 --> 00:52:05.119
Like, I'm I'm sure this it's not I mean, if if there's anything they learned from

00:52:02.960 --> 00:52:09.680
the Wii U, it's don't call something something you and how to get rid of dead

00:52:07.440 --> 00:52:14.000
stock. So, I'm sure they can figure it out. Okay. But yeah, if I was a retailer

00:52:12.000 --> 00:52:17.680
and I ended up taking back a bunch of crappy battery life switches, I would

00:52:16.079 --> 00:52:22.960
I'd probably just send them back to Nintendo, be like, "Look, this is your problem. If you want me to keep carrying

00:52:20.000 --> 00:52:27.119
your product, I'm not eating these." Um, all right. Neuralink applies to the FDA

00:52:25.200 --> 00:52:30.960
for human trials. So, Neurolink, a company set up by Elon Musk to explore

00:52:28.880 --> 00:52:35.760
ways to connect the human brain to a computer interface, has applied to US

00:52:32.880 --> 00:52:40.720
regulators to start triing its device on humans. Okay, that sounds really

00:52:37.599 --> 00:52:43.440
clickbaity. So, Neurolink is a You wrote

00:52:40.720 --> 00:52:48.559
it. I copy pasted it. It's a brain machine interface company with the

00:52:45.920 --> 00:52:53.119
ultimate eventual goal of making an interface that you can connect

00:52:50.160 --> 00:52:57.920
non-intrusively to the brain so we can, you know, have hard drives for for

00:52:54.880 --> 00:53:00.720
memory and and and basically keep up

00:52:57.920 --> 00:53:06.160
with the just disc keep up with the AI that's

00:53:02.880 --> 00:53:09.040
going to make us their pets. So be a

00:53:06.160 --> 00:53:13.040
cyborg. But in Elon Musk fashion, he usually shoots for the moon but makes a

00:53:10.720 --> 00:53:17.200
monetizable path to get there. Right? So if he wants to go to Mars, he starts

00:53:14.720 --> 00:53:20.160
doing uh he makes his own space shuttle and then brings people just to the ISS

00:53:18.880 --> 00:53:23.440
and makes money doing that so he can finance the eventual trip to Mars and

00:53:22.079 --> 00:53:28.480
research all the technology along the way. So what they're doing with Neurolink is the same thing. They're uh

00:53:27.040 --> 00:53:33.520
apparently according to their claims, they've already surpassed the state-of-the-art and they're trying to

00:53:31.520 --> 00:53:37.760
make these brain machine interfaces that can help people like with Parkinson's

00:53:34.880 --> 00:53:42.800
and other neurological diseases just not have seizures anymore and stuff like

00:53:39.440 --> 00:53:44.559
that. And then once they continue to do

00:53:42.800 --> 00:53:48.720
that, eventually the technology be good enough that you and I don't need to use

00:53:46.000 --> 00:53:52.800
a keyboard and mouse anymore. So they showed off um some of the

00:53:50.400 --> 00:53:58.880
aspects of their new tech which is the first device is called the N1 and mostly

00:53:55.440 --> 00:54:00.240
the talk was a recruitment talk kind of

00:53:58.880 --> 00:54:04.960
it was a conference. Elon wasn't the only one speaking there. It was other people at the team. They showed clips of

00:54:03.359 --> 00:54:08.960
different people at the team with footage from their lab. Apparently they

00:54:06.720 --> 00:54:12.000
have 100 employees. Really? I thought it was like a team of like the 12 best

00:54:10.720 --> 00:54:18.079
experts in the world but there's like 100 people there. Wow. Okay. And it's super cool. So what it is is basically a

00:54:15.839 --> 00:54:24.559
small chip like smaller than the size of your pinky fingernail and that goes just

00:54:21.440 --> 00:54:26.640
underneath the skull in like a 2 mm wide

00:54:24.559 --> 00:54:30.559
incision. It's such a small incision that you don't even need a stitch when

00:54:28.960 --> 00:54:34.160
the when it's over. They want the operation to be like getting LASIC eye

00:54:32.160 --> 00:54:39.680
surgery. Yeah. Kind of like that. Uh kind of like installing the chip in

00:54:36.480 --> 00:54:41.680
Kingsman. Didn't see it. Oh, okay. Yeah.

00:54:39.680 --> 00:54:47.839
So I think you'd like it. attached to the chip is a bunch of these like

00:54:44.680 --> 00:54:50.079
probes. Um, but they're they're threads,

00:54:47.839 --> 00:54:53.680
okay? They're not like like the the stuff that people buy today, which is

00:54:51.760 --> 00:54:59.440
super expensive and brutal, would be like a spike that goes into your brain.

00:54:56.480 --> 00:55:03.520
And u instead they have these threads. They're actually a tenth of the width of

00:55:01.119 --> 00:55:07.280
a human hair. And they go in and each one of them has electrodes in it. And so

00:55:05.440 --> 00:55:12.240
it can receive signals from multiple neurons. And then all those threads are

00:55:09.680 --> 00:55:16.319
connected to that chip. That chip then communicates wirelessly to a wearable

00:55:14.000 --> 00:55:21.040
that you put on your ear, which in turn is connected via Bluetooth to your

00:55:18.319 --> 00:55:25.400
smartphone. I must be getting old cuz this makes me

00:55:22.720 --> 00:55:31.200
very uncomfortable. Oh, that's so cool. And so you can actually wear more

00:55:28.319 --> 00:55:34.160
than one of these. So normally this like the the state of the art that they used

00:55:32.800 --> 00:55:39.520
before like that spike, you would just get one and it'd be like super invasive and everything. with these because

00:55:37.040 --> 00:55:42.559
they're less invasive. Um they could put they want to aim for about four, but

00:55:40.880 --> 00:55:46.480
they could put up to 10 in different brain centers around your head and your

00:55:45.040 --> 00:55:51.119
hair can just grow back over them and there's no cords coming from you. So

00:55:48.160 --> 00:55:54.880
they're super discreet. Yeah. And the thing that's super cool is

00:55:52.640 --> 00:55:58.480
they've made this robot to do the surgery to put it on because those

00:55:56.400 --> 00:56:04.319
threads are so fine and small, smaller than a human hair. this robot with this

00:56:00.799 --> 00:56:06.559
tiny tiny needle and this machine vision

00:56:04.319 --> 00:56:10.240
which can detect where your like brain uh your arteries are and veins in your

00:56:08.400 --> 00:56:15.200
brain where the blood is. It can avoid those so it doesn't cause hemorrhaging

00:56:12.720 --> 00:56:19.200
and it can it can just insert these threads at different places and there's

00:56:16.640 --> 00:56:24.079
like a thousand threads with like 3,000 electrodes each. And it does it like in

00:56:21.760 --> 00:56:27.359
an hour. Crazy.

00:56:25.760 --> 00:56:30.880
Yeah. Yeah. So, I'm super surprised that they apparently have a product that they

00:56:29.200 --> 00:56:34.640
apparently are going to be triing on humans by apparently the end of 2020.

00:56:32.880 --> 00:56:38.319
They tested it on a monkey that was able to control a computer with its brain

00:56:36.319 --> 00:56:42.000
according to Mr. Musk. That's not farfetched because there's videos of

00:56:40.640 --> 00:56:46.880
monkeys controlling computers with their brains like 12 years ago.

00:56:45.599 --> 00:56:51.040
Right. But it just means that their system like does something at the very

00:56:48.640 --> 00:56:56.079
least. It's not just uh you know a Kickstarter. Yeah. Like here's a here's

00:56:54.319 --> 00:56:59.520
a really thin thread. We imagine at some point in the future it'll detect neural

00:56:57.680 --> 00:57:04.160
activity, but for now it's just drilled into your brain. I think they have like

00:57:02.240 --> 00:57:09.040
the foremost experts. They have a lot of young people. A lot of people that video

00:57:05.680 --> 00:57:11.359
look like they're under 30. Interesting.

00:57:09.040 --> 00:57:15.119
Speaking of a lot of young people, a lot of young people are uh getting off

00:57:13.440 --> 00:57:18.559
Facebook. Okay, last one though because I got to go. Uh this is the last one. Oh

00:57:16.960 --> 00:57:21.920
yeah, this is just the topics that we highlighted at the beginning. Oh yeah.

00:57:20.559 --> 00:57:26.960
So I wanted to make sure we got through those. We're not doing the Samsung RAM

00:57:24.000 --> 00:57:31.440
thing. Um, all right. So, this was posted on the forum by Fluofer. Thanks,

00:57:28.960 --> 00:57:35.839
Floofer. Love that name. US regulators have approved a record $5 billion fine

00:57:34.160 --> 00:57:39.760
on Facebook to settle an investigation into data privacy violations related to

00:57:38.000 --> 00:57:42.680
allegations that political consultancy Cambridge Analytica and properly obtain

00:57:41.119 --> 00:57:47.040
the data of up to 87 million Facebook users. The sum amounts to around a

00:57:44.960 --> 00:57:50.880
quarter of the company's yearly profit. Uh the investigation focused on whether

00:57:48.799 --> 00:57:56.079
Facebook had violated a 2011 agreement under which it was required to clearly

00:57:52.640 --> 00:57:58.720
notify users and gain express consent to

00:57:56.079 --> 00:58:02.960
share their data. If confirmed, it would be the largest fine ever levied by the

00:58:00.799 --> 00:58:06.000
FTC on a tech company, but it still needs to be finalized by the Justice

00:58:04.480 --> 00:58:09.599
Department civil division, and it's unclear how long this may take.

00:58:07.920 --> 00:58:14.480
Investors responded positively to the news. Okay, hold on. This is the most interesting part. You'd think that the

00:58:12.720 --> 00:58:18.799
news of being like, "Hey, you're going to get fined $5 billion would make your

00:58:16.720 --> 00:58:23.440
stock price go down, but actually it made it go up 1.8%." Which totally makes

00:58:21.599 --> 00:58:26.640
sense because they knew that this fine was coming down the pike for a long

00:58:24.799 --> 00:58:29.359
time. They didn't know how much it was going to be, but Facebook did think that

00:58:28.319 --> 00:58:33.760
it was going to be in the neighborhood of 5 billion and Facebook did put

00:58:31.359 --> 00:58:36.960
apparently almost enough almost all that aside. So, the reason that the stock

00:58:35.520 --> 00:58:41.440
price would go up is because now there's less uncertainty, right?

00:58:39.599 --> 00:58:45.400
Uh, we don't know what additional measures and oversight might be placed

00:58:43.680 --> 00:58:49.440
on the company or Mark Zuckerberg himself. Um, but I think what everyone

00:58:48.160 --> 00:58:55.119
wants to know is where does the money go? Like does everyone who had their

00:58:52.319 --> 00:58:59.839
information sold get rec get compensated for it? Apparently in cases like this,

00:58:57.520 --> 00:59:03.200
it's the people affected don't get compensated. The agency that does the

00:59:02.000 --> 00:59:09.040
investigation isn't even the one who gets the money. Usually it just goes to

00:59:05.440 --> 00:59:13.599
the the US Treasury for uh for general

00:59:09.040 --> 00:59:17.839
use. So build a wall. It just goes into

00:59:13.599 --> 00:59:19.920
the coffers. Yeah. Um Sure. Do you think

00:59:17.839 --> 00:59:22.960
that some people think that this is not enough money? It's a slap on the wrist.

00:59:21.440 --> 00:59:27.040
It's not enough to make a dent or make them care. It is 20% of a year's

00:59:25.280 --> 00:59:32.079
profits. Not gross revenue profits. Yeah. So I actually I have a bit of a

00:59:29.359 --> 00:59:37.520
different take on that. Um, I think that a fine of 20% of a company's profit for

00:59:35.200 --> 00:59:42.559
the year is much more than a slap on the wrist. I mean, I think it's very easy

00:59:39.200 --> 00:59:43.839
for people to say, "Well, Facebook

00:59:42.559 --> 00:59:49.280
doesn't care because they're going to make four times that much this year."

00:59:46.319 --> 00:59:54.319
But, I mean, if I told you that, you know, you did a really bad thing driving

00:59:51.680 --> 00:59:58.880
that far over the speed limit. I I'm finding you a quarter of your salary for

00:59:56.799 --> 01:00:01.760
the year. you'd probably be pretty bummed.

01:00:00.400 --> 01:00:07.680
Yeah. The other part of it is they have competitors. All of their competitors are, you know, everyone's making as much

01:00:06.079 --> 01:00:12.160
as they can and allocating as much as they can to the future to grow more in

01:00:10.000 --> 01:00:16.079
the future. So, if you didn't plan for that 20% that inhibits your ability to

01:00:14.480 --> 01:00:19.200
grow as much as you wanted to and then gives your competitors a leg up. And the

01:00:17.839 --> 01:00:26.160
other thing to remember is that this is just one country that has assessed this

01:00:22.319 --> 01:00:29.359
20% of Facebook's global annual profit

01:00:26.160 --> 01:00:32.400
fine. There's nothing to say that they

01:00:29.359 --> 01:00:33.760
won't get hit by, and you know what,

01:00:32.400 --> 01:00:37.680
this Cambridge Analytica one specifically, maybe not, but there's

01:00:36.000 --> 01:00:41.839
nothing to say that in the event of some kind of a scandal like this that they

01:00:39.280 --> 01:00:46.760
won't get hit then by the EU and then by Canada, then by someone else. And at the

01:00:43.680 --> 01:00:49.839
end of the day,

01:00:46.760 --> 01:00:51.280
um, you know, yeah, Facebook is going to

01:00:49.839 --> 01:00:59.559
continue to make a lot of money, a ton of money, but I I don't personally buy

01:00:54.799 --> 01:01:03.520
that 20% of your annual profit is um,

01:00:59.559 --> 01:01:07.520
and is like a slap on the wrist. If we

01:01:03.520 --> 01:01:10.799
got like, okay, if we got fined 20% of

01:01:07.520 --> 01:01:14.000
our annual profit, I can tell you as a

01:01:10.799 --> 01:01:15.680
business owner, that would sting. That

01:01:14.000 --> 01:01:20.200
would affect our budgeting. That would affect our future plans on our

01:01:17.760 --> 01:01:26.119
expansion, our growth. Um, especially because this is sort of a Pandora's box.

01:01:23.760 --> 01:01:32.160
Now that I've been fined $5 billion once, I am certainly at that amount 20%

01:01:30.160 --> 01:01:36.000
of my profit, I am certainly trying to figure out how to not get hit by that

01:01:34.160 --> 01:01:40.480
next year. So if people are saying, "Look, this is not a deterrent." I think

01:01:38.160 --> 01:01:44.240
that's hogwash. You think Facebook wants 20% of their profit wiped out every

01:01:42.480 --> 01:01:49.119
year? That's not going to help their stock price. I think it's interesting

01:01:46.400 --> 01:01:53.839
that g given that it just goes to the US Treasury for general use, it almost

01:01:51.200 --> 01:01:57.839
gives the government an incentive to make these fines go through. That's kind

01:01:56.160 --> 01:02:03.040
of weird. Yeah, government fines um are a

01:02:01.040 --> 01:02:06.799
fascinating thing. I mean, that's another thing, too, is like for me as

01:02:04.720 --> 01:02:11.359
Facebook, I have a lot of uncertainty now. It's like on the one hand, yeah,

01:02:08.720 --> 01:02:14.000
you guys done goofed, but you know, they've done a lot of other really

01:02:12.559 --> 01:02:17.839
stupid stuff over the last couple of years, too. So, I'm kind of sitting there going, "Oh crap, now that the

01:02:16.559 --> 01:02:24.400
scent of blood is in the water, what else are they coming after us for?" And what defines me? Like, if I'm a Facebook

01:02:21.920 --> 01:02:28.559
investor, this news does not make me want to spend 1.8% more on my Facebook

01:02:26.960 --> 01:02:32.640
shares, especially because Facebook is such a

01:02:30.400 --> 01:02:36.640
public target. Uh, and then again, like I have to

01:02:35.040 --> 01:02:40.240
confess, I haven't been following this that closely. You know, maybe there's

01:02:38.400 --> 01:02:44.960
something in this settlement that says the FTC isn't going to go after them for

01:02:42.559 --> 01:02:48.559
anything else that like I I don't know exactly.

01:02:46.880 --> 01:02:51.680
I don't know. But it's not confidence inspiring for me. And I think it's I

01:02:50.319 --> 01:02:57.240
think it's sort of ridiculous to think that Facebook would just shrug this one

01:02:54.240 --> 01:02:57.240
off.

01:02:58.559 --> 01:03:05.799
I agree. Could be wrong. Super chats. Yeah, super chat. Oh, good reminder.

01:03:02.880 --> 01:03:11.599
Thank you, Chris. Nerdy Timber, Jonas Garibbe, Freddy Gary Singh, M. What are

01:03:09.520 --> 01:03:19.839
you doing? See you in a week, dude. Is that the the Graler? Yeah. Yeah. Matt

01:03:16.119 --> 01:03:22.559
Trinidad Demon, Gary Singh, Rocky

01:03:19.839 --> 01:03:27.680
Gregory. Poops too much. It's a shame. Gregory, Ethan, Lucy, William McKay,

01:03:25.440 --> 01:03:34.799
Pablo Diaz. Uh, what would you get? A OnePlus 7 Pro or Pixel 3 AXL?

01:03:32.079 --> 01:03:41.119
Need a headphone jack? Uh, Pixel 3 XL. Anything else? OnePlus 7 Pro. No, I

01:03:37.760 --> 01:03:42.319
think I think I'd get the 7 Pro really.

01:03:41.119 --> 01:03:48.200
Well, I mean, it depends if you need a headphone jack. It doesn't have one.

01:03:45.280 --> 01:03:53.440
Um, Dane Carter, thanks. LXS, you'll hear about the new

01:03:50.559 --> 01:03:58.799
Nintendo Switch. Oh, lol. Yeah. Yes. Yeah, we talked about that later. Uh,

01:03:55.599 --> 01:04:00.480
Sauce Boss, thanks. Uh, Tommy Gun, I

01:03:58.799 --> 01:04:05.039
demand that you make Channel Super Fun your game stream channel. Maybe you'll

01:04:02.079 --> 01:04:08.839
read it this time. Okay, I did. Um, that won't happen, but resurrecting channel

01:04:07.599 --> 01:04:14.000
Super Fun is kind of on the table lately, so stay

01:04:12.160 --> 01:04:18.839
tuned. Uh, just Mark Gaming, are you not going

01:04:16.240 --> 01:04:27.680
to review the Sony Xperia 1? Probably not. Adrien Finnegan, hi

01:04:22.400 --> 01:04:30.559
Michael Hanley, sup. Um, Robert, it's RC

RC Mail. So like RC guy. That helps me.

01:04:42.079 --> 01:04:48.559
Okay, that helps me. RC mail. Robert C. Mail. Midland Productions. I want to

01:04:47.200 --> 01:04:54.000
follow up when I asked about the dream studio. I know you have one. I was referring to if you bought land and

01:04:51.440 --> 01:04:56.799
built from scratch. Oh, well, if I bought land and built from scratch, that

01:04:55.440 --> 01:05:01.920
would be quite a dream cuz I don't know if you've looked at land prices in the Lower Mainland anytime recently, but

01:05:00.079 --> 01:05:06.480
it's in the neighborhood of any $9 million for a pitching butt course,

01:05:03.640 --> 01:05:14.079
baby. That's the next LT campus. Yeah. Uh 24 acres in South Suri. $9 million.

01:05:10.319 --> 01:05:15.760
We all pitch in. We can get it. Send us

01:05:14.079 --> 01:05:20.960
super chats, guys. We need your super chats. We'll buy 24 acres. We all pitch

01:05:18.720 --> 01:05:26.720
in and putt. That was the joke, Nick. Yeah. Yeah. Non

01:05:25.200 --> 01:05:31.839
dad here and I have the best dad jokes. Yeah, I made that. Dro tube. Have you

01:05:29.039 --> 01:05:34.960
considered switching to Linux? Um, yes, I've considered it, but I there's a lot

01:05:33.599 --> 01:05:39.440
of software I need to use. His name is Dro Tube. Runs on Windows. Uh,

01:05:37.839 --> 01:05:46.000
Frederick, would you be open to making more pro content? Uh, probably not that

01:05:43.520 --> 01:05:49.920
much. you know, we we love being that sort of, you know, fun window into

01:05:48.559 --> 01:05:54.039
really high-end pro cool stuff sometimes, but it's not really our

01:05:51.640 --> 01:05:59.760
focus. Um, Eduardo Lionus, it's been a good

01:05:56.559 --> 01:06:01.680
run. You're going to get sused. Uh, I

01:05:59.760 --> 01:06:05.920
don't know. I know what that is. And you're right. Maybe she's uh maybe she's

01:06:04.000 --> 01:06:10.079
personally making sure that our stream doesn't stop buffering. Are we talking

01:06:08.640 --> 01:06:14.160
about that Susan or a different Susan? I assume. Yeah. Okay. Uh, okay. Okay, I

01:06:12.720 --> 01:06:18.079
got a I can only have time for a couple more.

01:06:15.920 --> 01:06:20.880
What if those $5 million was ransom money for some kidnappers? So after you

01:06:19.680 --> 01:06:25.599
took it, they never found them and killed the kid. Well, that's why I would check the news because I'm sure that

01:06:24.319 --> 01:06:30.640
would show up in the news. See, I've got that covered. Uh you'd be like, "Here's

01:06:28.000 --> 01:06:35.119
the $4 million, guys. Save the kid." And like you'd be rushed by like waiting

01:06:32.640 --> 01:06:38.559
police if Yeah. Wouldn't you? Uh Drake Simmons says, "Dang it. Now I have to

01:06:36.880 --> 01:06:42.000
buy a second water bottle. The stealth one is sweet." It is sweet. I don't

01:06:40.079 --> 01:06:46.319
mind, but I am bummed that I already bought the black hat. Can I get a

01:06:43.359 --> 01:06:50.160
virtual hug? Yes. Yes. You need two hats, man. You need one that you wear to

01:06:47.920 --> 01:06:53.520
the gym and like when you're hay bailing and stuff. And then you need a good

01:06:51.599 --> 01:06:57.119
dress hat. Dress hat. Yep. When you get new shoes and stuff like sharp. It's

01:06:55.200 --> 01:07:01.520
black. It's sharp. So guys, just a reminder, if you add the Stealth hoodie,

01:06:59.200 --> 01:07:05.839
the Stealth version of the LTT water bottle, and the black hat all to your

01:07:03.920 --> 01:07:10.000
cart on ltdstore.com, you will get an automatic $20 discount applied, which is

01:07:07.760 --> 01:07:13.359
basically like getting a free hat. Yeah. And the only thing that was as popular

01:07:11.440 --> 01:07:16.160
as this water bottle so far in the first hour was the first water bottle. The

01:07:14.880 --> 01:07:20.640
