WEBVTT 00:00:00.320 --> 00:00:07.759 i'm doing it i'm doing it we're live 00:00:04.400 --> 00:00:09.840 it's rancho time uh or rather it was 00:00:07.759 --> 00:00:14.240 when show time um a little while ago but we ran into an 00:00:12.000 --> 00:00:18.720 issue can can i can i get that that tangle of fans actually alex do you mind 00:00:17.359 --> 00:00:24.720 yeah so just to give you guys some idea of what sort of problem we were dealing with 00:00:22.320 --> 00:00:26.880 before the show here um well this is part of it 00:00:26.000 --> 00:00:30.880 and alex probably has some other parts of it 00:00:29.119 --> 00:00:33.840 but not on hand because he's actually still working on the video that we're 00:00:32.239 --> 00:00:38.320 yeah oh yeah oh that's good that's good yep yeah we got uh 00:00:36.480 --> 00:00:43.280 there is going to be there's going to be some some definite um 00:00:41.760 --> 00:00:47.200 you know school of hard knocks engineering going on in this video right 00:00:45.120 --> 00:00:50.719 here so that should be pretty good but uh we've got a great show for you guys 00:00:48.640 --> 00:00:57.680 today i think as you may not have noticed i have 00:00:53.920 --> 00:01:00.079 what's this hi everybody 00:00:57.680 --> 00:01:04.879 i i i i i see i don't understand the politically correct culture these days 00:01:02.559 --> 00:01:09.040 are we even allowed to do that yeah like i don't know is that like and 00:01:06.560 --> 00:01:12.159 like a is that italian or like like are you allowed to 00:01:10.080 --> 00:01:15.280 it's dr nick yeah he's a minority because there's only one dr nick yeah so 00:01:14.240 --> 00:01:22.560 i don't know if you're allowed to do that no i was no that's canon you can do that no no i was recently informed that 00:01:19.439 --> 00:01:24.799 um you're not allowed to say uh max is a 00:01:22.560 --> 00:01:29.840 member of a facebook group where you're not allowed to say y'all 00:01:27.200 --> 00:01:33.920 because it's cultural appropriation and i was kind of sitting here going but 00:01:31.600 --> 00:01:38.159 that's just a word is isn't it just appropriating whom um 00:01:36.320 --> 00:01:42.479 not who you'd think is all is all i'm really gonna get into 00:01:40.880 --> 00:01:47.040 but um yeah i just thought what's it called a conjunction 00:01:44.400 --> 00:01:51.439 yeah yeah i thought it was just you all it is yeah i thought that yes it depends 00:01:49.360 --> 00:01:55.119 who started it but i think the people who started it are part of an 00:01:53.280 --> 00:01:59.439 imperialistic capitalistic society it's fair game because that society is 00:01:57.520 --> 00:02:03.360 grounded and formed around appropriation that's all they do 00:02:01.439 --> 00:02:09.360 that's all we do all right well we've got a bunch of great topics for you guys 00:02:04.960 --> 00:02:12.560 today uh Intel launches xeon w for 00:02:09.360 --> 00:02:15.360 workstations further separating their 00:02:12.560 --> 00:02:20.879 servers eon products from their core i7 core i9 and corey whatever else and oh 00:02:19.280 --> 00:02:26.000 also pentium um consumer products 00:02:23.920 --> 00:02:30.800 and ryzen threadripper gets rounded out with the final 00:02:27.680 --> 00:02:32.319 chip the 1900x it has arrived 00:02:30.800 --> 00:02:36.959 yeah i don't think anyone was really waiting for it but we'll talk about that 00:02:34.160 --> 00:02:41.840 in more depth later AMD is rumored to be losing a hundred dollars or more on 00:02:39.200 --> 00:02:46.239 every vega 64 they sell which would be pretty bananas if true 00:02:44.239 --> 00:02:50.080 although i have no guarantee whatsoever that it actually is and what else we got 00:02:48.239 --> 00:02:54.000 here and Linus phone number and email are probably on the internet now as 00:02:51.920 --> 00:02:57.760 there's been a huge instagram breach of six million 00:02:55.440 --> 00:03:03.200 users data oh yeah great i'm glad we're covering 00:03:00.959 --> 00:03:09.200 that hey man news is news this is unbiased 00:03:06.000 --> 00:03:09.200 objective journalism 00:03:11.200 --> 00:03:21.370 are you you're looking into it right now aren't you no 00:03:24.480 --> 00:03:30.000 fake news that's luke sitting on the couch in the intro 00:03:30.000 --> 00:03:33.840 fake news no that's me on the right 00:03:34.080 --> 00:03:39.599 yeah right yeah they're right 00:03:37.120 --> 00:03:44.879 wait what all right so for those of you who aren't 00:03:43.120 --> 00:03:48.000 familiar this is james he's one of the new writers i don't even know if it's 00:03:46.480 --> 00:03:52.879 fair to call you guys new anymore have you been here what like six months almost 00:03:51.040 --> 00:03:57.599 something like that i don't know five five february february that's like six 00:03:55.360 --> 00:04:01.519 months yeah that's like six months yeah that's freaking thank you Colton 00:03:59.760 --> 00:04:05.760 crazy yeah oh i mean uh people are apparently throwing 00:04:03.439 --> 00:04:09.680 it throwing things out there so james is actually the one who prepares the lan 00:04:07.760 --> 00:04:13.920 show document for us every week and has been doing so for 00:04:11.439 --> 00:04:16.880 about the last uh the entire time yeah pretty much since 00:04:15.040 --> 00:04:20.400 it started yeah so the first week he did it it kind of sucked 00:04:18.560 --> 00:04:24.560 that's not true and then the second week it was like pretty decent and since then 00:04:22.880 --> 00:04:29.040 i mean honestly it's been kind of hard to tell the difference which either 00:04:26.320 --> 00:04:33.520 means that james is a rock star or means that Colton was just 00:04:31.360 --> 00:04:36.160 frankly never any better at this than some guy who started 00:04:34.960 --> 00:04:41.520 two weeks ago a bit of both um all right so first 00:04:38.160 --> 00:04:43.360 topic here is Threadripper 00:04:41.520 --> 00:04:46.479 i know it wouldn't be it wouldn't be WAN Show i wish i could have all the thread 00:04:45.440 --> 00:04:52.800 ripper in here see what i have to work with here he gets touch screens oh yeah 00:04:48.880 --> 00:04:55.520 poor you 2016 sucks a 2016 lg gram and 00:04:52.800 --> 00:05:01.759 who has the 2017 one me it's a way great premiere because 00:04:58.000 --> 00:05:03.919 that is uh the way of the world 00:05:01.759 --> 00:05:09.039 that's the curl of the girl big dog big dog 00:05:06.000 --> 00:05:11.039 and then table scratch dog 00:05:09.039 --> 00:05:15.600 oh that's how it's going to be all right so the original topic here was posted on 00:05:13.120 --> 00:05:20.000 the forum by onotech and basically i don't know i don't even 00:05:18.240 --> 00:05:23.280 know i don't get it how is this even newsworthy why is this even in here you 00:05:21.680 --> 00:05:27.199 can explain threadripper in the title dude that's news 00:05:25.440 --> 00:05:32.160 am i right unfortunately yes 00:05:29.919 --> 00:05:39.039 Threadripper related is news but this is a skew that beyond a very 00:05:35.759 --> 00:05:42.960 limited use case frankly i don't really 00:05:39.039 --> 00:05:46.960 understand so the threadripper 1900x 00:05:42.960 --> 00:05:48.560 has the same 64 PCIe lanes as the other 00:05:46.960 --> 00:05:54.479 threadripper skus it's got the same 00:05:50.479 --> 00:05:57.600 lga whatever it is tr4 stock it as the 00:05:54.479 --> 00:05:58.639 other Threadripper skus it's got a nice 00:05:57.600 --> 00:06:08.000 you know high base clock uh 3.8 versus 3.6 gigahertz for 00:06:04.240 --> 00:06:10.400 the 1800x which is the lower clocked 00:06:08.000 --> 00:06:15.120 actually very similar version of kind of the same processor because this is only 00:06:13.120 --> 00:06:19.919 an eight core chip so it's more comparable to the 1800x in 00:06:17.600 --> 00:06:24.319 terms of its performance than it is to its bigger brothers the 1920x and the 00:06:22.160 --> 00:06:27.759 1950x right to spin it another way it basically 00:06:25.360 --> 00:06:32.160 almost is the 1900x except with a slightly higher base clock i mean the 00:06:29.120 --> 00:06:34.400 1800x the 1800 the 1900x is almost like 00:06:32.160 --> 00:06:39.120 the 1800x except it has a higher base clock and it basically grants you access 00:06:37.039 --> 00:06:42.800 to all the x 399 goodies 00:06:40.319 --> 00:06:46.720 for 50 bucks more so for 50 bucks more you get the privilege of buying a more 00:06:44.560 --> 00:06:50.160 expensive motherboard right quite a bit more expensive 00:06:48.400 --> 00:06:54.639 motherboard yeah a lot more expensive motherboard not to mention that now you 00:06:52.400 --> 00:06:58.639 can go buy quad channel memory uh quad channel memory that will probably never 00:06:56.479 --> 00:07:06.479 be necessary for any kind of reasonable workload for an eight core processor 00:07:01.440 --> 00:07:08.080 um now to be clear i can come up with a 00:07:06.479 --> 00:07:12.240 thanks bixby i don't know what prompted bixby to 00:07:09.599 --> 00:07:17.599 start yakking over there um now to be clear there are a couple workloads i can 00:07:14.639 --> 00:07:22.000 think of for this so for example ASUS released um what was it i think a 19 00:07:20.400 --> 00:07:25.759 PCIe slot motherboard 00:07:24.160 --> 00:07:32.479 i'm going to have to double check this it might not have been 19. yeah here it 00:07:27.520 --> 00:07:37.840 is ASUS debuts the b250 expert mining 00:07:32.479 --> 00:07:41.120 ethereum motherboard with 19 PCIe slots 00:07:37.840 --> 00:07:43.360 um so with a Threadripper chip 00:07:41.120 --> 00:07:47.599 you could theoretically do like 00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:52.560 what like 60 of them so you could literally just cover 00:07:49.680 --> 00:07:58.400 like an eatx motherboard in PCIe 1x slots and 00:07:55.520 --> 00:08:03.680 and power adapters apparently i didn't even realize this it's not just graphics 00:08:00.639 --> 00:08:06.160 cards it is also thousand watt plus 00:08:03.680 --> 00:08:09.360 power supplies that are running into huge supply issues right now i was 00:08:08.000 --> 00:08:12.560 talking to a system right yeah i was down at puget systems 00:08:11.280 --> 00:08:16.080 yesterday as some of you guys are probably aware if you saw the stream and 00:08:14.479 --> 00:08:22.479 they're like yeah it's like actually a problem we're having a hard time getting thousand watt power supplies 00:08:20.400 --> 00:08:27.039 which may also explain okay you go why Corsair didn't want to 00:08:24.639 --> 00:08:29.599 send us their ax 1500i for that build that we're doing 00:08:28.400 --> 00:08:34.880 because they can probably turn around and sell that thing like billio 00:08:33.519 --> 00:08:38.240 yeah but what's worth more to them the retail price of the power supply or 00:08:36.560 --> 00:08:41.919 whatever exposure we hope well i don't know 00:08:39.760 --> 00:08:45.120 that's like a 400 plus dollar power supply so it's it's pretty it's pretty 00:08:44.000 --> 00:08:48.880 significant um yeah but the in the ad inventory on 00:08:47.200 --> 00:08:51.920 our channel is worth more than 400 yeah maybe 00:08:50.560 --> 00:08:57.279 um the one 1000 watt power supply that is 00:08:54.560 --> 00:09:02.000 no problem for us to get is uh the thousand dollar one though that puppy 00:08:59.279 --> 00:09:05.200 1200 watts is it 1200 watts 400 watts i thought it was a thousand watt 00:09:03.920 --> 00:09:10.720 no do you want to talk about the build that you have coming up kind of but it's kind of secret too 00:09:09.040 --> 00:09:16.240 no i don't think it's oh well okay we don't have this as an embargoed case yes 00:09:13.200 --> 00:09:19.600 okay uses an embargoed case but 00:09:16.240 --> 00:09:21.920 i know you guys you got you guys saw you 00:09:19.600 --> 00:09:27.600 know some of the the low end stuff that we're always focused on okay 00:09:24.640 --> 00:09:31.519 and you guys were like Linus you know why are you guys always doing 00:09:29.680 --> 00:09:34.880 you know all the low-end stuff all the time i want something that i can't 00:09:33.519 --> 00:09:38.880 afford i want to see a six thousand dollar 00:09:37.200 --> 00:09:43.279 Threadripper build and james is here to answer the call 00:09:41.680 --> 00:09:48.720 yes i am it's pretty badass it's got 128 00:09:46.399 --> 00:09:53.920 gigabytes of RAM which i didn't even know that it has 00:09:50.959 --> 00:09:56.800 eight dimms but wait more importantly they're all RGB 00:09:57.360 --> 00:10:04.800 you see this is what i have to deal with around here i'm no longer even in control of the ship 00:10:02.480 --> 00:10:08.480 it's just like it doesn't just hit icebergs 00:10:06.240 --> 00:10:11.920 it like it like calls to the iceberg you got icebergs working on the ship 00:10:10.240 --> 00:10:19.120 it takes like a big hook and it kind of goes where the icebergs be at beaches and uh 00:10:16.399 --> 00:10:23.600 and it pulls them in and kapow you don't even know yet six months in this is only 00:10:20.800 --> 00:10:27.760 the tip of the iceberg okay and i can't take full credit for 00:10:26.320 --> 00:10:34.399 all the terrible puns that have been in the uh that have been in the videos recently either as you guys can clearly 00:10:32.160 --> 00:10:38.240 clearly see they've i think that we've hit peak pun we're on the way down now 00:10:36.240 --> 00:10:41.920 they've all been used like in the first build guide i did 00:10:39.519 --> 00:10:45.519 which was the RGB build guide yeah every every paragraph was a pun because you 00:10:43.440 --> 00:10:50.000 could talk about the chassis or the case and say in this case 00:10:47.600 --> 00:10:54.480 but now that's been done yeah but i okay yeah but that was your first time doing 00:10:51.680 --> 00:10:59.279 it i had already done it many many times so should we just keep them coming just 00:10:57.440 --> 00:11:03.200 they're always fresh every time i think we i think we do keep them coming 00:11:00.959 --> 00:11:08.800 because you know if you do that then they'll always be in a state of ecstasy 00:11:06.240 --> 00:11:08.800 or cringe 00:11:12.959 --> 00:11:17.600 oh i'll admit it took me longer to get that then you should have i had to look 00:11:16.560 --> 00:11:25.680 um all right so why don't we get back to the 1900x so basically the point of this 00:11:22.480 --> 00:11:28.160 chip is if you need quad core 00:11:25.680 --> 00:11:34.800 wait okay you need quad channel memory and you need a ton of PCIe lanes but you 00:11:30.720 --> 00:11:36.399 don't want a high core count processor 00:11:34.800 --> 00:11:41.279 or maybe and this is the pitch that i've heard 00:11:38.240 --> 00:11:42.720 for something like a 7740x on the Intel 00:11:41.279 --> 00:11:47.680 side of things maybe you want to invest in a platform 00:11:45.600 --> 00:11:52.079 that has a greater uh has greater opportunities for upgrading 00:11:50.880 --> 00:11:58.560 in the future and you just don't have the money to spend right now 00:11:55.360 --> 00:12:00.000 but so would that be someone who's maybe 00:11:58.560 --> 00:12:04.560 they're getting this for a professional use case but it's still their side business they haven't jumped in fully 00:12:03.519 --> 00:12:10.079 because this is we're talking about a high ceiling here yes we're talking you 00:12:06.959 --> 00:12:11.040 could go all the way from 8 to 16 or you 00:12:10.079 --> 00:12:15.920 know word on the street is that AMD would love to deliver even more course than 00:12:15.040 --> 00:12:23.200 that in their gaming lineup and it wouldn't be that much of a stretch because 00:12:19.519 --> 00:12:26.000 to my knowledge the tr4 socket is not 00:12:23.200 --> 00:12:30.079 that different from the server socket so there's already 32 core processors 00:12:28.399 --> 00:12:34.480 there have really how much more of a challenge is it for them to deliver a 32 00:12:32.320 --> 00:12:38.000 core on the desktop assuming that we could figure out how to cool the bloody 00:12:36.000 --> 00:12:40.399 thing which is actually uh maybe we'll talk about that in a little bit more 00:12:39.200 --> 00:12:43.839 depth later that's a video that Anthony's been working on like at taming 00:12:42.720 --> 00:12:49.200 the beast is air cooling 00:12:46.480 --> 00:12:54.720 or water cooling a better answer for these super high wattage new cpus like 00:12:52.079 --> 00:12:59.200 threadripper and the answer may surprise you ooh 00:12:57.519 --> 00:13:04.720 i'm hoping this is going to be a callback to the d wave quantum computing 00:13:03.040 --> 00:13:08.560 it's going to be up there oh right you have to say like we have to pull vacuum 00:13:06.160 --> 00:13:12.720 to to cool a 32 core Threadripper it's got to be super conductors and 00:13:11.360 --> 00:13:18.639 you know what i've already filmed it so it's far too late and that's not in it so you'll you'll just have to sit and be 00:13:15.839 --> 00:13:24.639 sad um all right let's move on to the quote-unquote freaking huge instagram 00:13:21.600 --> 00:13:26.079 breach apparently i'm screwed um i 00:13:24.639 --> 00:13:29.839 haven't read this article yet it was posted by ali on the forum uh the 00:13:28.320 --> 00:13:35.760 original article here is from ars technica but maybe james would like to 00:13:32.320 --> 00:13:37.680 explain exactly how i am screwed because 00:13:35.760 --> 00:13:41.680 of this i'm not sure you're screwed but it's only ten dollars 00:13:39.360 --> 00:13:45.519 u.s to find out how screwed you are so what happened was 00:13:43.120 --> 00:13:48.320 great it started off as a bug what a value 00:13:46.800 --> 00:13:53.040 that's what you're that's what your privacy's worth so what what started off as a bug 00:13:52.240 --> 00:13:56.079 in or an exploit available from instagram 00:13:55.279 --> 00:13:59.680 got totally scaled up by some industrious 00:13:58.480 --> 00:14:04.560 hacker basically there was a bug some kind of 00:14:02.880 --> 00:14:08.800 some kind of uh data security research firm thought that 00:14:06.959 --> 00:14:13.199 this bug could not be exploited in an automatic automated way 00:14:10.880 --> 00:14:17.519 but then this hacker who ended up contacting rs technica 00:14:15.279 --> 00:14:21.199 did manage to automate it so that he was able to 00:14:18.720 --> 00:14:25.680 scrape this giant database of instagram 700 million users 00:14:23.839 --> 00:14:30.000 at a rate of what is it a million 00:14:28.079 --> 00:14:34.000 a million accounts per hour a million accounts per hour so he managed to get 00:14:31.839 --> 00:14:37.680 six million accounts into a database then you put that database online in a 00:14:36.079 --> 00:14:43.040 queryable website it's 10 bucks a query you can 00:14:40.399 --> 00:14:49.920 type in an instagram handle and get either a phone number an email or both 00:14:47.040 --> 00:14:54.480 wow so this person contacted rs technica and actually provided them with a 10 000 00:14:51.920 --> 00:14:58.079 record example spreadsheet of the type of data that he had scraped 00:14:56.320 --> 00:15:03.040 and then they had some statistics from that spreadsheet so i think it was 4 000 00:15:00.720 --> 00:15:07.440 out of the 10 000 had both emails and phone numbers wow and then the remaining 00:15:05.120 --> 00:15:11.120 6000 had a mix and then if you were looking at that 00:15:08.800 --> 00:15:14.800 spreadsheet based on the usernames they found out that they were like 00:15:12.560 --> 00:15:17.920 verified actual accounts not just bots or whatever 00:15:16.160 --> 00:15:22.000 and they also found out that looking at the emails and the phone numbers 00:15:20.240 --> 00:15:26.560 just based on area codes and stuff it seemed like the personal data matched 00:15:24.399 --> 00:15:29.760 the accounts and it looks real interesting 00:15:28.079 --> 00:15:35.680 so um to be clear not everyone 00:15:32.720 --> 00:15:40.320 got breached so i mean even at a rate of a million accounts an hour it would have 00:15:37.519 --> 00:15:46.639 taken almost two weeks to download the entire 700 million user records but it's 00:15:44.560 --> 00:15:50.639 still a significant problem and um 00:15:48.800 --> 00:15:54.880 i mean another thing is i guess realistically there's not 700 million 00:15:52.560 --> 00:16:00.800 active users so no actually if you look at uh graphs of user to post ratio like 00:15:58.240 --> 00:16:06.160 the vast majority of instagram accounts have never posted right they're just 00:16:03.440 --> 00:16:11.440 created so probably you're okay but also maybe you're super 00:16:09.920 --> 00:16:16.079 not okay and uh depends if there's any logic in the 00:16:14.480 --> 00:16:19.279 scrape and how it targeted people but the biggest risk here is that 00:16:18.399 --> 00:16:24.000 some for some exposed people it's their email 00:16:22.000 --> 00:16:28.480 and their phone that have been exposed and didn't you get hacked one time 00:16:26.639 --> 00:16:33.040 um because someone had your email and phone it was a little more complicated 00:16:30.000 --> 00:16:34.800 than that but yes it's it is possible if 00:16:33.040 --> 00:16:38.240 you have someone's phone number and you know who their carrier is and you can 00:16:36.639 --> 00:16:43.199 manage to convince their carrier that you are that person it's possible to get 00:16:40.480 --> 00:16:47.279 a sim issued in that number and then you can use that phone to break into other 00:16:46.240 --> 00:16:52.560 accounts that are using two-factor authentication 00:16:49.440 --> 00:16:53.920 with the phone number as a backup 00:16:52.560 --> 00:16:58.880 so good luck everyone and let's go ahead 00:16:56.639 --> 00:17:03.360 and move on to our next topic amazon turns thousands of twitch 00:17:01.279 --> 00:17:08.000 streamers that's us right now hey which is why we 00:17:06.079 --> 00:17:14.559 can't show you anything oh no no can't show you that um into product pitch men 00:17:12.319 --> 00:17:18.880 poor ladies as it were original article here is from bloomberg 00:17:17.199 --> 00:17:25.280 you know i like the bloomberg i always like to throw a couple bloombergs in there sure that's fine 00:17:23.039 --> 00:17:30.320 so spencer soper says amazon.com inc will pay commission 00:17:27.919 --> 00:17:33.120 to gamers artist chefs and others in on its twitch interactive video streaming 00:17:31.760 --> 00:17:39.280 service for selling products to their fans through its retail site i mean to 00:17:35.520 --> 00:17:42.240 be clear um it's not like amazon wasn't 00:17:39.280 --> 00:17:46.720 already paying twitch streamers to sell products to the people who were 00:17:44.320 --> 00:17:51.679 viewing i mean it's no secret that Linus media group is a member of the amazon 00:17:48.480 --> 00:17:53.840 associates affiliate program and anyone 00:17:51.679 --> 00:17:57.760 who's a member of the program if someone were to buy a product through 00:17:56.160 --> 00:18:01.840 their affiliate link they would get a commission i mean 00:17:59.840 --> 00:18:05.360 that's something that legally you have to disclose the only thing that's why 00:18:03.360 --> 00:18:08.720 you do here yes and they're calling this program the 00:18:07.120 --> 00:18:15.600 gear on amazon the only thing that's new is that they've integrated these affiliate links 00:18:11.679 --> 00:18:17.679 and widgets right onto streamer's pages 00:18:15.600 --> 00:18:20.960 so assumingly we could at some point just point down and say yeah check with 00:18:19.440 --> 00:18:24.640 these headphones in this little picture right here 00:18:22.480 --> 00:18:26.960 and i think the commissions are probably the same it says you can get a 00:18:26.080 --> 00:18:30.880 commission of up to ten percent and i think most 00:18:29.280 --> 00:18:36.799 affiliates can get that provided you sell enough volume but the lower end is 00:18:33.360 --> 00:18:36.799 usually four percent 00:18:37.440 --> 00:18:43.520 uh yeah at the low end it's usually about four percent um higher and it 00:18:41.520 --> 00:18:48.000 depends on the category as well so some categories and i believe this is 00:18:46.080 --> 00:18:51.360 posted publicly so i don't definitely you can just google anyone can join an 00:18:49.600 --> 00:18:54.080 amazon affiliate program you scroll down to the bottom of amazon 00:18:52.960 --> 00:18:59.679 there's like a become a partner or something link on the bottom you can do this with etsy and 00:18:58.080 --> 00:19:03.120 awesome um affiliate program yeah it looks like you 00:19:01.760 --> 00:19:09.039 don't have to be logged in or anything like that so like digital services for example um 00:19:07.039 --> 00:19:13.280 some of them are actually not percentage based like if you sign someone up for 00:19:10.559 --> 00:19:18.320 prime then you get just a fixed bounty uh sometimes they'll do bonuses um but 00:19:15.840 --> 00:19:22.240 yeah here we go so some oh amazon gift cards don't get anything anymore 00:19:19.679 --> 00:19:25.520 apparently neither does wine it's a funny thing that because i would 00:19:23.840 --> 00:19:28.480 think there's enough margin in alcohol that you could afford to uh kind of a 00:19:26.960 --> 00:19:32.799 little british turn of phrase you did there 00:19:30.000 --> 00:19:37.360 funny thing that oh wow i liked it well thank you um 00:19:34.320 --> 00:19:39.280 video games and game consoles are a one 00:19:37.360 --> 00:19:44.400 percent commission oh see that's going to be harsh for this the streamers for 00:19:40.960 --> 00:19:46.160 sure yep um televisions two percent pc 00:19:44.400 --> 00:19:50.640 components used to be closer to like three and a half to four and now they 00:19:48.559 --> 00:19:56.480 are two and a half percent toys are three so basically the stuff that's easy 00:19:53.120 --> 00:19:57.679 to sell where there's like 00:19:56.480 --> 00:20:02.000 so many like gaming sites and gaming blogs 00:20:00.400 --> 00:20:05.039 and game streamers um where they just really i guess feel 00:20:03.919 --> 00:20:09.840 like they don't have to work that hard at it really low commission rates but 00:20:07.120 --> 00:20:14.480 then you move up into digital music um physical music 00:20:12.240 --> 00:20:18.559 uh handmade things groceries digital videos five percent you move all the way 00:20:16.880 --> 00:20:21.520 up to like headphones musical instruments business and industrial 00:20:20.000 --> 00:20:25.280 supplies oh now you're talking six percent and you can get up to ten 00:20:24.240 --> 00:20:30.320 percent for men's and kids private label digital 00:20:27.600 --> 00:20:36.559 video games luxury beauty amazon coins and amazon fashion women 00:20:34.159 --> 00:20:40.799 are there any tr uh twitch streamers in the like the beauty cosmetic space like 00:20:38.880 --> 00:20:46.559 they're on youtube um you know what to be perfectly honest with you i 00:20:43.039 --> 00:20:49.200 have never watched a twitch stream 00:20:46.559 --> 00:20:55.039 outside of tuning into luke's with like it muted to kind of talk to his chat 00:20:52.400 --> 00:21:00.640 i don't really i don't really get it okay yeah well i'm old and stuff 00:20:58.320 --> 00:21:05.039 so like i'm i'm like i'm like shaking my cane on the front porch like old man 00:21:02.720 --> 00:21:09.520 style like my kids are going to be like yo i watch you know whatever 00:21:07.919 --> 00:21:12.880 gamertron person and i'm going to be like 00:21:13.679 --> 00:21:19.440 go outside go kick a ball like 00:21:17.039 --> 00:21:23.520 go go go just do anything anything but that but i'm gonna be wrong and those 00:21:21.600 --> 00:21:28.880 people are gonna be like the the superstars of that generation and it's 00:21:26.640 --> 00:21:32.400 and it's i'm gonna be old and i accept that so there you go 00:21:31.039 --> 00:21:36.240 at least you're still saying going to be old 00:21:34.080 --> 00:21:38.799 yeah i don't know i'm 31 now i feel pretty old 00:21:37.280 --> 00:21:43.360 um all right so let's uh have a look at our 00:21:41.039 --> 00:21:47.120 next topic here oh yeah wait did we go through like 00:21:45.039 --> 00:21:51.360 what's different about it really apparently the commissions will be 00:21:48.320 --> 00:21:53.120 available to 22 000 twitch partners i 00:21:51.360 --> 00:21:57.200 really think it's just the widget i think the 23 000 partners might just 00:21:54.960 --> 00:22:00.480 be the number of partners they have like partners is just like creators who have 00:21:58.720 --> 00:22:04.960 signed up or streamers who have signed up for the affiliate program yeah no it 00:22:02.400 --> 00:22:08.320 depends because um yeah there's different tiers of twitch 00:22:06.480 --> 00:22:10.640 partners that's something that i do know because i know that luke even though he 00:22:09.840 --> 00:22:15.679 like doesn't or at times hasn't met like certain partner requirements as a 00:22:14.080 --> 00:22:19.919 partner and then like i think we are even though we definitely don't meet the 00:22:17.679 --> 00:22:23.919 partner requirements so like us yeah so it's a little bit complicated 00:22:21.919 --> 00:22:28.000 all right but as far as amazon's concerned this is kind of just their 00:22:26.400 --> 00:22:31.360 their version of youtube you know how amazon touches everything right 00:22:29.919 --> 00:22:36.720 prime is their netflix they've got grocery now this even though this is a much much 00:22:34.880 --> 00:22:41.840 smaller version of a video platform what did it say they 00:22:38.640 --> 00:22:44.080 have 10 million viewers a day crazy 00:22:41.840 --> 00:22:48.159 but compared to youtube is nothing so 00:22:45.360 --> 00:22:52.559 speaking of nothing let's say your phone had nothing on it 00:22:50.720 --> 00:23:00.559 in terms of storage this is pretty cool uh sandisk just launched 00:22:56.080 --> 00:23:01.760 their largest ever micro sd card 00:23:00.559 --> 00:23:06.000 but wait it's exactly the same size as the other 00:23:03.919 --> 00:23:09.440 ones you mean it's still micro 00:23:07.760 --> 00:23:13.280 how else would it fit in the slot come on you guys clearly we meant the 00:23:10.880 --> 00:23:19.440 capacity it's in it's the largest ever it costs 250 00:23:16.400 --> 00:23:21.200 dollars but if you for whatever reason 00:23:19.440 --> 00:23:27.440 felt like you needed to carry around like what would that be that's like 00:23:23.520 --> 00:23:29.200 what 15 blu-rays worth of data 00:23:27.440 --> 00:23:34.000 if you need if you felt like you if you had a phone that was capable of playing 00:23:31.440 --> 00:23:37.760 back like i i don't even know can you do that can you play back like an mkv on a 00:23:35.840 --> 00:23:41.039 phone i guess it's probably possible like there's vlc 00:23:39.200 --> 00:23:44.080 are they powerful enough yeah i mean do they have uh hardware decoding for 00:23:43.120 --> 00:23:48.000 that not sure actually Android oreo might i 00:23:46.400 --> 00:23:52.240 know that oreo just added some new codecs like from sony there was a so a 00:23:50.000 --> 00:23:55.039 proprietary sony codec that oreo is supporting them it would depend on the 00:23:53.440 --> 00:23:59.520 hardware though so it would be if the uh if the adreno GPU has like hardware 00:23:57.840 --> 00:24:03.520 decoding for that quality of h260 i mean probably 00:24:02.400 --> 00:24:07.919 people are probably correcting me in twitch chat but yeah i guess there's probably no reason you couldn't play 00:24:06.080 --> 00:24:10.960 back full quality blu-rays on your phone plus a lot of phones are getting HDR now 00:24:09.679 --> 00:24:16.240 other than that it would be really stupid um because 00:24:13.279 --> 00:24:20.559 honestly on a phone screen it is pretty hard to tell the difference between like 00:24:18.000 --> 00:24:24.720 a decent 720p video stream and like the highest quality that you 00:24:22.480 --> 00:24:27.760 can stream on plex let alone like a full blu-ray quality but here's the question 00:24:26.480 --> 00:24:31.840 that was on my mind when i read this headline yeah i kind of thought 00:24:30.080 --> 00:24:36.240 big deal like can't they release a headline like this every month like is 00:24:33.600 --> 00:24:40.320 this just an incremental upgrade because these you know just like uh processing 00:24:38.159 --> 00:24:44.799 power like these things are just on up and to the right at all times yes and no 00:24:42.960 --> 00:24:49.440 i mean it has slowed down even in the time since Linus media group was founded 00:24:47.120 --> 00:24:53.919 all of this stuff has slowed down significantly i like it used to be that 00:24:51.919 --> 00:24:57.360 you got a new like doubling of hard drive capacities it felt like every few 00:24:56.240 --> 00:25:02.960 months and you know in the okay so here in the time 00:25:01.120 --> 00:25:07.840 since i've been a pc enthusiast so it must have been around 2003 2004 00:25:06.159 --> 00:25:12.640 when you went to the store and bought like a decent sized hard drive it was 00:25:10.240 --> 00:25:17.679 120 gigs well i remember the first computer that my family bought it was 30 00:25:14.240 --> 00:25:19.200 gigs okay so in 2003 2004 like an 00:25:17.679 --> 00:25:23.360 enthusiast would run out and buy a hard drive that was anywhere from 80 to 120 00:25:22.000 --> 00:25:27.840 gigs and you could get higher ones but they were like pretty pricey 00:25:25.440 --> 00:25:35.120 okay when Linus media group started that was 2003 that was 10 years later 13. it 00:25:30.880 --> 00:25:38.320 was um about 3 terabytes 00:25:35.120 --> 00:25:41.039 since then so that is that is what an a 00:25:38.320 --> 00:25:44.480 factor of what so times 10 times 3. so that's 30 times the size in that 10 00:25:43.600 --> 00:25:49.919 years so since then we've gone from 3 to 12 00:25:47.919 --> 00:25:53.679 so we've managed to 4x and it's been almost 5 years 00:25:51.760 --> 00:25:56.559 so think about that well i actually catfished you a little 00:25:54.960 --> 00:26:00.559 bit because the answer to my questions in the show notes because 00:25:58.799 --> 00:26:03.440 this new 400 Gigabyte card is going to be the new world record holder for this 00:26:02.240 --> 00:26:07.440 format and the previous holder that they're 00:26:05.520 --> 00:26:10.440 displacing was 00:26:10.720 --> 00:26:17.279 samsung who had 256 gigabytes yep and that's just last year but it had been a 00:26:15.679 --> 00:26:22.000 little while so that's something that you might not be factoring in and 00:26:19.520 --> 00:26:26.480 uh honestly i think the bigger deal for mobile storage for for flash cards is 00:26:24.799 --> 00:26:30.960 really going to be a speed increase versus just continuing to ramp up the 00:26:28.960 --> 00:26:36.080 capacity because we've got standards like um 00:26:33.200 --> 00:26:40.159 shoot what's that uh there's a new super small card standard 00:26:38.000 --> 00:26:43.760 i it's it's escaping me right now but we've got standards coming that are 00:26:41.520 --> 00:26:47.120 going to perform much more similarly to a full speed SATA drive or even a pci 00:26:45.840 --> 00:26:53.840 express drive and this card sure 400 gigs but it only 00:26:50.960 --> 00:26:59.039 copies data at 100 megabytes a second so it would actually take a really 00:26:56.320 --> 00:27:04.159 really long time to fill it up like i don't it's not like you could use your 00:27:01.039 --> 00:27:08.320 phone as like a super high speed you 00:27:04.159 --> 00:27:09.679 know um external drive for your laptop 00:27:08.320 --> 00:27:14.240 when you're on the road and you're video editing or something like that not at those kinds of speeds no that's bunk so 00:27:12.960 --> 00:27:19.279 i don't really understand what you're gonna be keeping on it unless it's something ridiculous like oh i need to 00:27:17.520 --> 00:27:23.360 carry my blu-ray collection with me yeah eventually this is just gonna be your 00:27:21.360 --> 00:27:29.200 your way way way cold storage backup this is your amazon glacier 00:27:26.240 --> 00:27:35.039 micro sd cards microsd cards yeah yeah i got the whole business here amazing 00:27:31.200 --> 00:27:37.120 amazing amazing storage density 00:27:35.039 --> 00:27:42.320 don't mind that the cost is just completely uncompetitive with tape don't 00:27:39.679 --> 00:27:46.240 worry about that also the the incredibly complicated controller we need to access 00:27:44.880 --> 00:27:50.960 you know what i mean what would that be that would be like 00:27:48.640 --> 00:27:56.480 you know a thousand micro sd cards in the space of a single tape drive 00:27:53.679 --> 00:27:56.480 cartridge like 00:27:56.799 --> 00:28:02.880 what what controller is that because you'd basically be looking at like us an 00:28:00.480 --> 00:28:07.120 incredibly complex SSD controller by that point 00:28:04.240 --> 00:28:10.159 um all right what else we got for today what else is interesting talk about this 00:28:08.880 --> 00:28:14.399 orbee touch stuff uh yeah sure like i normally organize 00:28:12.559 --> 00:28:17.600 the show notes with more boring things or niche things at the bottom and this 00:28:16.159 --> 00:28:22.080 is pretty close to the bottom but i feel like i'm here and 00:28:19.840 --> 00:28:25.039 i think it's kind of cool sure like the screenshot is in the show notes so we 00:28:24.000 --> 00:28:29.279 should just open it that way so basically 00:28:27.440 --> 00:28:33.120 we've been on like this wonky keyboard kick for a little while 00:28:31.360 --> 00:28:38.240 hey i just work here yeah 00:28:35.679 --> 00:28:41.760 so i've done like three um alternative keyboards we did the advantage two which 00:28:40.000 --> 00:28:44.399 is an ergonomic one then we did the safe type keyboard which is just a more 00:28:43.600 --> 00:28:49.360 obscure ergonomic keyboard and now we've 00:28:46.880 --> 00:28:53.039 done the orbi touch which is coming up on the on flow plane and on youtube soon 00:28:51.120 --> 00:28:57.279 so the orbee touch is a keyless keyboard it's got these two domes that you move 00:28:54.960 --> 00:29:00.159 around in a coordinated fashion the process is called chording so 00:28:58.960 --> 00:29:04.240 basically there's i think eight or so different clusters 00:29:03.039 --> 00:29:09.279 of letters on the one hand and i you point to one cluster and then 00:29:07.600 --> 00:29:14.720 with the other hand you specify which symbol in the cluster you actually wanna 00:29:11.120 --> 00:29:14.720 do sounds like a cluster to me 00:29:15.679 --> 00:29:21.360 okay but beyond the actual keyboard the company's actually ported this same 00:29:19.440 --> 00:29:25.679 typing method to vr and while the keyboard is aimed at 00:29:22.880 --> 00:29:29.679 people who have low finger dexterity in vr it's actually probably just the 00:29:27.279 --> 00:29:33.840 better way to type for everybody right because you just uh you just gesture 00:29:32.240 --> 00:29:38.720 for which key you want to press unfortunately your link doesn't work 00:29:36.480 --> 00:29:42.080 because you linked to your own inbox oh i didn't know that worked that way yeah 00:29:40.240 --> 00:29:44.960 no that that that's definitely just show my inbox but 00:29:43.520 --> 00:29:48.640 i'm not logged in you have the keys 00:29:46.720 --> 00:29:52.080 sort of go to lastpass get my password go to my email no no i can't i no i 00:29:50.559 --> 00:29:54.960 don't i don't have your lastpass information that's not how lastpass 00:29:53.600 --> 00:29:58.159 works i actually can't look at what you store 00:29:56.880 --> 00:30:02.480 in it without locking you out 00:30:01.039 --> 00:30:05.039 so maybe i'm using it wrong i shouldn't put that in there 00:30:06.240 --> 00:30:11.120 anyway the point is everyone has everyone who's used vr has 00:30:09.440 --> 00:30:16.399 probably felt a little silly holding these kick-ass touch controllers 00:30:13.279 --> 00:30:18.559 and then using them to like laser beam 00:30:16.399 --> 00:30:22.080 a a letter on a key yeah it's actually really inefficient and the worst part 00:30:20.159 --> 00:30:25.520 about it is that whenever you're pointing out a letter when you pull the 00:30:23.919 --> 00:30:30.000 trigger it like moves your hand a little bit so typing with any kind of reasonable 00:30:28.240 --> 00:30:34.320 speed is actually pretty difficult and fatiguing i mean if 00:30:32.399 --> 00:30:37.360 you're the if you like to like tom cruise and always hold your touch 00:30:36.000 --> 00:30:44.000 controller out like that instead of brandon leeing and holding it close to your body you after all that typing time 00:30:41.279 --> 00:30:48.640 your ARM's gonna get tired you know speaking of your arms getting tired 00:30:46.960 --> 00:30:54.000 let's go ahead and do one of our sponsor spots synergy 00:30:50.480 --> 00:30:55.039 so synergy allows you to use 00:30:54.000 --> 00:31:00.159 let's see it allows you to use one keyboard and 00:30:57.200 --> 00:31:06.480 one mouse with multiple systems so let's say for example that i had a uh like uh 00:31:02.840 --> 00:31:08.159 a mac pro macbook pro that i like to use 00:31:06.480 --> 00:31:11.600 for development and let's say for example that i had a Windows desktop 00:31:09.760 --> 00:31:15.360 that i like to use for gaming typical yeah typical that's right 00:31:13.520 --> 00:31:19.279 instead of being instead of having to have a separate set of peripherals on my 00:31:17.120 --> 00:31:22.399 desk for each of them i could just have a single keyboard and mouse hooked up to 00:31:21.200 --> 00:31:27.919 both of them through the network so you just install 00:31:25.279 --> 00:31:31.919 synergy on your systems and boom you can drag your mouse across the screens 00:31:30.000 --> 00:31:35.679 completely seamlessly they've got a basic and pro

pretty freaking cool dragging 00:31:41.760 --> 00:31:48.399 and dropping files between the computers the ability to set up hotkeys and more 00:31:46.159 --> 00:31:53.120 and what's really cool about

we'll do it anyway hey alex can i have that ifixit 00:34:39.599 --> 00:34:45.440 kit that we were just using to complete a project that we just did is that a pro 00:34:43.520 --> 00:34:51.040 advantage too there you go guys i fix it they've got 00:34:48.800 --> 00:34:55.599 the guides whether it's an iphone an imac uh 00:34:52.879 --> 00:34:59.839 a dell computer some other phone if it's a device i fix it's got a guide for how 00:34:57.520 --> 00:35:05.359 to tear it apart and sometimes how to put it back together and 00:35:03.040 --> 00:35:10.720 they're also leading the charge in terms of repair it yourself 00:35:08.079 --> 00:35:15.280 culture because they not only provide the guides they also have an extensive 00:35:12.800 --> 00:35:19.440 range of replacement parts including really hard to find stuff like weird 00:35:17.359 --> 00:35:24.240 little adhesives or gaskets that are required to put a system back together 00:35:22.079 --> 00:35:28.960 and tools like yes my friends the pro-tec tool kit it's 00:35:26.800 --> 00:35:33.520 now only 59.95 and includes their 64-bit driver kit 00:35:31.119 --> 00:35:40.640 which has pretty much every bit you could possibly need and a bunch of other 00:35:36.320 --> 00:35:43.440 cool stuff for prying picking poking 00:35:40.640 --> 00:35:47.440 anti-staticking thank you bixby i wasn't talking to you i messed with this thing 00:35:44.960 --> 00:35:52.800 for a second what bixby yeah no this thing um 00:35:50.320 --> 00:35:56.880 as a noob i have found two things in particular that i like about this 00:35:55.040 --> 00:35:59.760 yeah we actually hired a noob as a writer like 00:35:58.480 --> 00:36:04.800 never built a computer before this is kind of a yeah well i was going to kind of get to that but it's kind of a funny 00:36:02.800 --> 00:36:10.839 story from his interview um i one of the questions that i asked 00:36:08.000 --> 00:36:16.160 every interviewee was um tell me about some projects that 00:36:13.839 --> 00:36:19.359 you have on the go right now so Anthony one of the other writers that we hired 00:36:17.440 --> 00:36:24.079 at the same time he's like oh yeah well i've got all these like uh retro 00:36:21.280 --> 00:36:29.040 consoles that i'm uh repairing and like soldering back together um alex tells me 00:36:27.359 --> 00:36:34.320 about his like dune buggy like creation from scratch 00:36:32.160 --> 00:36:36.560 team that he participated mad max probably shoots potatoes at the size 00:36:35.599 --> 00:36:42.960 yeah james is like i built my own computer that's no that's 00:36:40.560 --> 00:36:47.200 not what i said i said okay well what do you mean like building your own 00:36:45.040 --> 00:36:50.320 computer and you said uh actually i would consider that to be 00:36:49.040 --> 00:36:53.520 pretty basic and i was like oh 00:36:52.400 --> 00:36:57.839 okay hopefully make it to the next round 00:36:56.160 --> 00:37:02.720 yeah so somehow somehow you ended up around here okay so given that perspective yeah 00:37:00.400 --> 00:37:06.560 i was blown away by the fact that this puppy spins because then you can just 00:37:04.720 --> 00:37:10.720 hold it in one hand and as you spin you don't have to reset your hand that's that's just amazing 00:37:09.440 --> 00:37:16.240 there's so many people face palming right now and tool of the week this 00:37:13.280 --> 00:37:19.839 puppy is this the spudger uh i actually you know what i'm gonna confess they all 00:37:18.079 --> 00:37:22.640 got cool names i can't remember which one's the spudger i think it's the black 00:37:21.280 --> 00:37:26.800 pokey one i'm pretty sure whatever this is called 00:37:25.280 --> 00:37:32.079 i'm just gonna give it a new name right now uh i don't know the unboxing but i use 00:37:29.920 --> 00:37:37.280 this this is the spudger you're gonna get us in trouble with every sponsor 00:37:34.839 --> 00:37:41.280 oh why do i let you come on the show live i was talking to the ifixit ladies 00:37:39.359 --> 00:37:45.359 at ltx and we were making all sorts of good names with these things this should 00:37:42.880 --> 00:37:48.800 this is a pokey anyway this is great for opening boxes a 00:37:47.599 --> 00:37:53.359 lot of people who work here just have not like knives on their keychains like Linus does tyler does they unbox things 00:37:52.240 --> 00:37:59.040 all day i haven't gone to that level yet because i'm a minimalist 00:37:57.200 --> 00:38:03.920 on my keychains i actually have a separate keychain just for my car key 00:38:00.960 --> 00:38:08.240 and the key that unlocks this office that way on the weekend i don't have to 00:38:05.200 --> 00:38:10.000 have those extra two keys that's how 00:38:08.240 --> 00:38:14.160 much i hate things being in my pocket so this thing is awesome for just opening 00:38:12.160 --> 00:38:17.040 up a new box of fans love it totally worth the price of 00:38:15.359 --> 00:38:21.440 admission all right well i'm sure that uh most of 00:38:19.359 --> 00:38:26.400 you will find um over at ifixit.com lineup 60 bucks i'm 00:38:24.560 --> 00:38:30.000 sure most of you will find more complex things to work on with that uh speaking 00:38:28.480 --> 00:38:34.400 of working on complex things alex are you done with that or yeah you're done 00:38:32.160 --> 00:38:37.920 okay cool conclusion uh okay do you want to come on and join the show 00:38:36.160 --> 00:38:43.359 okay cool all right i actually get to go home 00:38:41.440 --> 00:38:47.280 yeah Anthony already left diddy what time is it oh

myself bye everybody yep see 00:38:54.079 --> 00:39:00.960 ya goodbye i'm dc right oh how do i make this 00:38:59.040 --> 00:39:04.160 fine so alex um do you did you want to have do they 00:39:02.960 --> 00:39:07.920 know who you are i don't know if they know who you are i think some of them 00:39:06.160 --> 00:39:12.000 maybe i'm not totally sure yeah alex says uh alex is a toronto blue jays fan 00:39:10.720 --> 00:39:16.880 apparently i actually didn't you watch baseball when they get into playoffs yes okay so 00:39:15.359 --> 00:39:21.920 you're a typical so you're a typical canadian baseball fan yeah 00:39:19.760 --> 00:39:26.000 it's like well we've only got one team and uh 00:39:23.359 --> 00:39:29.839 gee 182 games is a lot to watch in a year so 00:39:27.359 --> 00:39:32.720 yeah i'ma just yeah 00:39:31.200 --> 00:39:37.200 i'd say the same about hockey but being a toronto fan like then i wouldn't watch 00:39:34.560 --> 00:39:40.400 a game in like the past 20 years so are you a toronto fan yeah 00:39:41.200 --> 00:39:47.599 what it's the closest team well 00:39:45.359 --> 00:39:52.160 montreal is the closest team montreal is evil though not to mention 00:39:49.599 --> 00:39:57.599 that like anyone else is the closest team to being worthy of your fandom i 00:39:54.800 --> 00:40:00.720 mean that's a factor as well they're just toronto 00:39:59.440 --> 00:40:05.200 i don't know i wanted to be a rebel everyone in my household is a montreal 00:40:02.560 --> 00:40:09.680 fan and i was just like you know what no i'm being a toronto fan and stir things 00:40:07.119 --> 00:40:13.280 up all right well speaking of fans these uh these cpus are definitely going to 00:40:11.839 --> 00:40:18.880 need fans because they have a lot of course wow that was a great segue i still got 00:40:16.720 --> 00:40:23.280 it baby so this was posted by ezzy on the forum and the original architect is 00:40:20.640 --> 00:40:29.200 oh architect articles from over on a non-tech Intel launches xeon w cpus for 00:40:27.200 --> 00:40:33.280 workstations so 00:40:30.640 --> 00:40:39.680 there's some good news here um the good news is i guess that now on the 00:40:37.040 --> 00:40:45.040 workstation you can get support for up to 512 gigs of ecc so that's error 00:40:43.200 --> 00:40:49.680 correcting memory um 00:40:46.720 --> 00:40:55.200 it goes all the way from 4 cores to 18 core line to 18 cores in the xeon w 00:40:52.640 --> 00:40:58.960 family so i guess that's cool um extent so extended memory support v 00:40:57.680 --> 00:41:03.520 pro uh Intel's amt 00:41:01.520 --> 00:41:08.079 standard reliability service ability and availability features 00:41:06.079 --> 00:41:13.040 so it's good in that there's like a higher end workstation platform but it's 00:41:11.359 --> 00:41:18.319 kind of sucky in that basically Intel has gone from 00:41:16.400 --> 00:41:24.000 quite a few generations ago where lga 775 and 771 were pretty much a 00:41:22.560 --> 00:41:29.280 little piece of tape apart and you could kind of like mod one 00:41:27.119 --> 00:41:34.079 two to the other and you could pretty easily run sort of workstation 00:41:31.839 --> 00:41:39.680 chips and in uh mainstream boards and vice versa to now this requires an 00:41:36.560 --> 00:41:41.040 all-new chipset um and we've got sort of 00:41:39.680 --> 00:41:45.839 their their enterprise server xeons we've got 00:41:44.160 --> 00:41:50.000 consumer and then we've got this in between and there's not a lot of 00:41:48.240 --> 00:41:56.800 interchangeability in spite of the fact that there's really no compelling reason 00:41:53.359 --> 00:41:59.119 for why that would have to be physically 00:41:56.800 --> 00:42:03.119 yeah like 1366 you could just take an i7 and plop in and on and like 00:42:01.440 --> 00:42:10.079 it wouldn't even matter right yep in fact um 00:42:06.720 --> 00:42:11.920 i mean running server grade processors 00:42:10.079 --> 00:42:17.839 in consumer motherboards is something that i have personally done like back in 00:42:14.880 --> 00:42:22.800 the day uh with my opteron 165 on socket 939 the great thing about the operon 165 00:42:21.200 --> 00:42:26.720 is that it was it was a good value because it ran at a super low clock 00:42:24.560 --> 00:42:29.359 speed but by putting it in a consumer board you could overclock the stuffing 00:42:28.160 --> 00:42:33.760 out of it and you could get great performance per dollar this is just 00:42:31.200 --> 00:42:36.400 artificially locking down the performance per dollar that's 00:42:35.040 --> 00:42:41.760 available and just you know there you go with that 00:42:39.119 --> 00:42:46.720 said i don't think there's really any i think it's like okay i guess Intel's 00:42:45.119 --> 00:42:49.520 other behavior over the last little while has made it less of a factor 00:42:48.240 --> 00:42:54.160 because it's not like anything that's not an x or a k skew is overclockable 00:42:52.160 --> 00:42:59.280 anyway and these chips are going to come in more expensive than the equivalent 00:42:56.319 --> 00:43:02.720 core i9s anyhow so there would be other than the second hand market no 00:43:00.960 --> 00:43:06.240 compelling reason to go and buy one of these if you don't need ecc memory 00:43:04.319 --> 00:43:09.839 support well also there's that they just have 00:43:08.560 --> 00:43:14.800 is it functionally any different than i-9 or they're just locking you out in many 00:43:12.720 --> 00:43:18.800 different ways for different markets no it actually really doesn't look that 00:43:16.720 --> 00:43:22.560 different so if you go ahead and have a look at the line up here let's go ahead 00:43:20.480 --> 00:43:27.839 and go down so here you go here's how they're differentiating it there's 00:43:24.960 --> 00:43:32.000 expert xeon scalable so this the equivalent used to be the e5 2600 so 00:43:30.720 --> 00:43:36.000 this is what we would have used for projects like seven gamers one CPU in 00:43:34.400 --> 00:43:42.000 like dual socket motherboards that kind of thing xeon w 00:43:38.240 --> 00:43:45.200 is uh what would have been e5 1600 00:43:42.000 --> 00:43:47.359 and then xeon e3 is entry so this would 00:43:45.200 --> 00:43:53.119 probably be what would have previously been like lga 1150 11 5x xeons uh where 00:43:51.839 --> 00:44:00.640 you don't actually get like the quad channel memory or anything like that you just get ecc 00:43:56.880 --> 00:44:02.720 so uh avx five twelve acceleration 00:44:00.640 --> 00:44:06.560 up to uh yep okay so yeah pretty much you get a four 00:44:04.960 --> 00:44:11.200 a couple four cores a couple six cores an eight to ten 14 and an 18. 00:44:08.880 --> 00:44:15.280 one thing i don't know is how these bass frequencies and turbo frequencies 00:44:12.640 --> 00:44:19.359 compare to the core i9s and pricing is still unclear but what we can at least 00:44:17.920 --> 00:44:23.040 kind of figure out is that this looks pretty darn similar 00:44:21.119 --> 00:44:27.839 to the 7900x and it is another 440 dollars for pretty 00:44:26.000 --> 00:44:32.240 much those um you know enterprise features and ecc 00:44:29.839 --> 00:44:36.240 memory well in fairness the and you don't get overclocking anymore 00:44:33.680 --> 00:44:40.319 i'm assuming 2125 actually doesn't look that horrible 00:44:37.599 --> 00:44:47.599 yeah but why would you buy a quad core at 400 this is basically what a uh 00:44:43.680 --> 00:44:48.480 well how much is a 7700 a 7740k 00:44:47.599 --> 00:44:53.200 right and the 7740k can be had for cheaper 00:44:50.800 --> 00:44:58.720 than that and it's overclockable and i wouldn't run out and invest in 00:44:55.520 --> 00:45:00.800 this kind of like an lga 2066 platform 00:44:58.720 --> 00:45:04.800 for a quad-core processor that's just like 00:45:02.480 --> 00:45:07.119 kind of dumb yeah it's like not too bad if you're 00:45:05.760 --> 00:45:11.680 in a situation that you're never going to have yeah 00:45:09.359 --> 00:45:16.240 so that's kind of where we're at on that um actually oh this is cool so uh ian 00:45:14.079 --> 00:45:22.720 from anontec went ahead and did a little comparison chart here so 17 here's a 00:45:20.319 --> 00:45:26.480 comparison between the top skews on each platform so the super high-end one 00:45:25.359 --> 00:45:31.839 um which actually now gets a new socket so 00:45:28.640 --> 00:45:35.280 that allows it to have more cores more 00:45:31.839 --> 00:45:38.640 PCIe thread up excuse me no no more PCIe 00:45:35.280 --> 00:45:42.240 lanes but far more cores up to 28 cores 00:45:38.640 --> 00:45:43.920 and 56 threads and six channel memory 00:45:42.240 --> 00:45:47.599 um that one's going to cost you anywhere from 10 to 00:45:45.280 --> 00:45:51.119 thousand dollars for example the price 81.80 00:45:49.119 --> 00:45:56.160 and then on the sort of the high-end workstation slash high-end desktop 00:45:53.599 --> 00:45:59.599 platforms you're looking at two thousand dollars tbd but if i had to 00:45:58.240 --> 00:46:04.800 guess i'd probably say around three grand or 3 500 you get a few more PCIe 00:46:02.640 --> 00:46:08.640 lanes so the same as the very high end zeons and then you get very similar 00:46:07.200 --> 00:46:12.079 clock speeds actually a little bit more on boost a little bit less on bass 00:46:10.880 --> 00:46:16.400 and a lower TDP and then 00:46:14.880 --> 00:46:20.480 more memory support and registered memory support so 00:46:18.480 --> 00:46:24.640 yeah i can uh i guess that's the thing why don't we 00:46:21.760 --> 00:46:30.560 move on yeah but are we still on Intel uh yeah core 00:46:26.640 --> 00:46:32.240 i7 8700k benchmarks have been leaked 00:46:30.560 --> 00:46:36.800 uh this was posted originally on the forum by i'm not sure james forgot to uh 00:46:35.119 --> 00:46:40.800 forgot to put that in oh i wish i had gotten to this one when he was here this 00:46:38.720 --> 00:46:44.160 was posted by raven shrike on the forum and the original article here is from 00:46:42.240 --> 00:46:49.760 wccf tech goodness 00:46:46.480 --> 00:46:51.280 so this is a really really 00:46:49.760 --> 00:46:56.720 interesting tip because word on the street 00:46:54.240 --> 00:46:59.520 according to you know the leaked box art here 00:46:58.319 --> 00:47:03.359 and uh the leaked benchmarks here 00:47:01.440 --> 00:47:09.119 is that per core clock speed and performance is going to be pretty 00:47:06.240 --> 00:47:14.000 freaking similar to the CPU that it's replacing the 7700k 00:47:11.520 --> 00:47:18.880 except that it's gonna have six cores on what will presumably be a similarly 00:47:16.640 --> 00:47:23.599 priced mainstream motherboard and chipset platform 00:47:20.480 --> 00:47:26.319 six course mainstream 00:47:23.599 --> 00:47:30.640 i'm excited Intel ran out and finally delivered us a high-end desktop platform 00:47:28.640 --> 00:47:35.280 worth writing home about and then went and made it irrelevant to 00:47:32.640 --> 00:47:38.560 the vast majority of consumers for whom six core is like definitely 00:47:37.200 --> 00:47:43.359 super enough um only a few months later 00:47:41.359 --> 00:47:47.440 it's exciting it's a great time to be alive uh what do we got here what are 00:47:46.000 --> 00:47:52.480 the leak specs um so it's a 3.7 gigahertz space 00:47:50.160 --> 00:47:56.240 frequency with boosts up to well the only really interesting one is 00:47:53.839 --> 00:48:00.560 4.7 gigahertz on one core so you think that's the only interesting one i am 00:47:58.480 --> 00:48:06.079 going to argue with you i think the 4.5 gigahertz two core boost 00:48:03.760 --> 00:48:11.200 is actually more important with how many games these days true are taking 00:48:08.240 --> 00:48:15.760 advantage of two cores that's the same as the 7700k isn't it 00:48:14.000 --> 00:48:20.560 uh yeah i think so but the the word on the street though is that we're looking at a 10 ipc improvement 00:48:19.119 --> 00:48:25.280 so this thing could show up and absolutely kick the 00:48:23.599 --> 00:48:30.000 stuffing out of the computer that anyone who any 00:48:28.000 --> 00:48:34.640 chumps out there who ran out and bought a 7 700 k 00:48:32.079 --> 00:48:38.800 it could be like the old days where every generation we had this deep 00:48:36.960 --> 00:48:44.000 buyer's remorse and we felt like there was actually enough of a performance 00:48:40.960 --> 00:48:46.000 improvement to be worth going out there 00:48:44.000 --> 00:48:48.920 and buying a new one so word on the street is that it's going 00:48:47.680 --> 00:48:52.240 to cost 350 bucks when it launches 00:48:51.520 --> 00:48:56.960 but with a 10 ipc improvement 00:48:54.800 --> 00:49:00.880 similar clock speeds so you're looking at 10 faster right out of the gate 00:48:59.200 --> 00:49:05.920 plus that it could be up to 50 00:49:03.599 --> 00:49:09.599 faster in heavily multi-threaded benchmarks 00:49:07.200 --> 00:49:17.200 and applications i mean this thing could show up and be legitimately like 140 00:49:14.319 --> 00:49:22.400 in the real world 140 150 percent the speed of a 7700k in something like video 00:49:19.920 --> 00:49:26.319 encoding and i guess also that's really bad news 00:49:25.040 --> 00:49:30.079 for AMD because that's kind of 00:49:28.240 --> 00:49:35.440 their buttery zone right now where they're like we have many cores it is 00:49:32.640 --> 00:49:39.920 going to put some pressure on ryzen 7. with that said 00:49:36.800 --> 00:49:42.640 i mean AMD has shown a definite 00:49:39.920 --> 00:49:46.160 willingness to roll up their sleeves like they're rolling up the sleeves all 00:49:44.480 --> 00:49:49.440 the way to the point where like you are so white oh my god 00:49:52.160 --> 00:49:58.559 roll up the sleeves all the way to the point where uh 00:49:56.559 --> 00:50:02.880 there's no sleeves left anymore when it comes to adding more cores to cpus just 00:50:00.720 --> 00:50:06.400 because yolo and also they probably have a lot left over like in the tank verizon 00:50:04.880 --> 00:50:09.920 like hopefully as they continue to improve it 00:50:08.640 --> 00:50:15.520 we'll see just generally it being better well when 00:50:12.319 --> 00:50:17.839 uh when jim keller left AMD so he left 00:50:15.520 --> 00:50:21.920 for tesla if i recall correctly so he left AMD to go to apple then he left 00:50:19.599 --> 00:50:26.559 apple to go back to AMD to like rescue them as far as i can tell and then left 00:50:24.079 --> 00:50:31.680 to go to tesla AMD made it very clear that his departure did not mean the end 00:50:29.359 --> 00:50:36.559 of the zen architecture zen 2.0 is already mapped out is my understanding 00:50:34.640 --> 00:50:38.960 so uh we already went through that topic we 00:50:38.079 --> 00:50:44.800 already went through that topic we already went through that topic uh galaxy note 7 owners will apparently 00:50:42.640 --> 00:50:48.800 get a massive discount on the note 8. so that's cool goodbye nick bye nick 00:50:48.079 --> 00:50:54.559 oh i was so upset about this topic this was posted by minnie beats on the forum the 00:50:52.640 --> 00:50:59.119 original article here is from pc gamer you guys should go check it out why are 00:50:56.240 --> 00:51:05.119 you upset by that one i'm upset because it never got released 00:51:01.760 --> 00:51:08.839 i liked the NVIDIA shield portable 00:51:05.119 --> 00:51:08.839 really and a prototype 00:51:09.680 --> 00:51:18.160 all right choose your choose your words carefully mr enjoys being employed here 00:51:15.599 --> 00:51:23.119 i just never really saw the appeal of it what's not to like it's a it's a 00:51:20.400 --> 00:51:27.680 handheld console that plays Android games and that 00:51:24.640 --> 00:51:30.800 streams your pc games 00:51:27.680 --> 00:51:35.240 so Android games are never great and pc 00:51:30.800 --> 00:51:35.240 games are only best played on a pc 00:51:36.000 --> 00:51:43.920 what about pc platformers yeah what about okay i played through 00:51:40.559 --> 00:51:45.040 all of tomb raider on the NVIDIA shield 00:51:43.920 --> 00:51:48.480 whole game never felt like i was having a bad 00:51:46.960 --> 00:51:52.480 experience and the graphics were freaking awesome because it's a portable 00:51:50.319 --> 00:51:55.440 platform okay but 00:51:53.920 --> 00:51:58.880 and you can't i did not enjoy tomb raider at all i like played a bit if it was like 00:51:57.599 --> 00:52:03.280 gta 5 yeah there fine gta 5 who cares 00:52:01.599 --> 00:52:07.839 any game that plays well with the controller played great 00:52:05.599 --> 00:52:12.400 on the shield portable and uh basically yeah they this 00:52:10.000 --> 00:52:17.040 prototype which looks like it has some seriously awesome improvements uh 00:52:15.040 --> 00:52:20.559 smaller bezels that was like one of the only things that i really felt like had 00:52:18.720 --> 00:52:23.440 to be fixed uh they changed some of the button placements it looks a bit more 00:52:22.079 --> 00:52:27.359 ergonomic um oh man 00:52:27.760 --> 00:52:35.040 just one prototype made it into the wild and 00:52:31.520 --> 00:52:37.119 that's it i even sent like and i shield 00:52:35.040 --> 00:52:41.280 portable was something that i would send fairly frequent sort of pings to our 00:52:39.520 --> 00:52:45.680 NVIDIA rep about like hey when you guys like doing a thing that's a new thing because 00:52:44.319 --> 00:52:49.680 like there's kind of an old processor now and they just never replied and 00:52:48.000 --> 00:52:55.200 never replied and it made me sad uh screen was apparently 00:52:53.040 --> 00:52:58.559 brighter uh shut down instantly instead of taking a couple seconds 00:52:57.200 --> 00:53:02.720 and um yeah so i'm sad apparently nobody else 00:53:01.119 --> 00:53:07.280 is sad yeah i couldn't care less really 00:53:05.040 --> 00:53:10.160 well thanks 00:53:10.480 --> 00:53:16.240 uh speaking of things that uh we couldn't care less about actually this 00:53:14.319 --> 00:53:21.200 does seem kind of important youtube begins isolating offensive content 00:53:19.760 --> 00:53:26.000 this week they won't be able to run ads or and 00:53:23.599 --> 00:53:28.559 this is interesting be shared on other websites 00:53:27.680 --> 00:53:33.920 so google announced this in june that they would begin isolating youtube videos 00:53:31.599 --> 00:53:37.440 that weren't directly in violation of its standards but contained 00:53:35.119 --> 00:53:40.400 controversial religious or supremacist content 00:53:39.040 --> 00:53:45.839 so the videos that fall into this category aside from not being able to run ads or 00:53:43.359 --> 00:53:51.280 be monetized won't have comments disabled and may have a warning screen 00:53:48.720 --> 00:53:55.359 appear before they play this is meant to curtail engagement and minimize the 00:53:53.839 --> 00:53:59.200 video's reach so creators affected by the policy will 00:53:57.200 --> 00:54:04.720 receive a note and will be able to appeal the decision if they feel like 00:54:00.640 --> 00:54:06.640 the restrictions are unwarranted 00:54:04.720 --> 00:54:10.480 i guess first of all how do they flag it because i know 00:54:08.079 --> 00:54:15.359 their last role went horribly a lot of people got falsely flagged yeah 00:54:13.680 --> 00:54:22.319 so if they're able to improve that a bit that's an improvement i guess but let's see how 00:54:18.720 --> 00:54:23.839 it goes is all i have to say about that 00:54:22.319 --> 00:54:28.559 yeah i don't have high hopes for that and what was the other thing that i was 00:54:26.319 --> 00:54:32.559 going to say about this it also seems like it's going to have a 00:54:30.079 --> 00:54:36.400 lot of people that are just saying like oh they're just trying to like hurt my 00:54:34.400 --> 00:54:42.480 free speech and then they might almost get more shares out of being like my 00:54:39.119 --> 00:54:44.079 free speech is hurt as opposed to 00:54:42.480 --> 00:54:47.280 just not being no one really caring 00:54:45.520 --> 00:54:52.160 all right so let's move on from that to something completely uncontroversial 00:54:50.800 --> 00:54:56.960 i just wanted to check i haven't checked the document yet do you guys have the juicero news in there did you cerro news 00:54:56.240 --> 00:55:01.760 no no uh oh i did hear about this though i 00:55:00.000 --> 00:55:06.960 thought you know what i think james specifically asked me if i 00:55:04.240 --> 00:55:13.599 wanted the juicero news in here oh they're shutting down um 00:55:09.119 --> 00:55:13.599 and i specifically told him yes 00:55:14.880 --> 00:55:21.839 i don't know how to spell juicero g-u-i-c-e-r-o 00:55:19.119 --> 00:55:26.160 i think you mean j-u-i but sure j-u-i okay so yeah no he didn't put it 00:55:24.480 --> 00:55:28.880 in okay so hold on let's go grab let's go grab an article here here's the 00:55:27.520 --> 00:55:32.800 verge's article uh juicero is shutting down 00:55:31.760 --> 00:55:37.599 um apparently they're trying to get bought 00:55:35.920 --> 00:55:42.160 so that's pretty cool i'm so surprised that they're shutting 00:55:38.960 --> 00:55:44.319 down said no one ever um all customers 00:55:42.160 --> 00:55:48.880 have up to 90 days to request a refund for their purchase of the ducero press 00:55:46.800 --> 00:55:52.480 regardless of when they bought it uh employees are being given 60 days 00:55:51.119 --> 00:55:54.960 notice um 00:55:56.000 --> 00:56:01.359 so like have you seen the insides of one of these those it's like super 00:55:59.359 --> 00:56:04.880 impressive the like level of over-the-top engineering is 00:56:03.359 --> 00:56:07.440 like insane it's like they gave someone like their first engineering job and 00:56:06.400 --> 00:56:11.440 they were like make it the best and instead of them 00:56:09.440 --> 00:56:15.839 like doing anything besides making it the best they only made it the best 00:56:15.040 --> 00:56:21.760 it's i like the aluminum is like this thick and spot it's crazy 00:56:20.319 --> 00:56:27.200 there's no purpose for it to be like that and they must be losing heaps of money but like if these are all just 00:56:25.119 --> 00:56:30.720 going out if you're like a creator or like you like mod things just pick one 00:56:29.119 --> 00:56:34.880 up like off the side of the road it will like there's amazing stuff inside of it fair 00:56:33.920 --> 00:56:40.720 enough all right here's something uncontroversial equally uncontroversial 00:56:38.720 --> 00:56:45.280 the pico goblin the ultra portable first fully 00:56:43.040 --> 00:56:51.040 untethered vr headset their claim to fame for this thing is that it doesn't 00:56:48.160 --> 00:56:54.960 require a pc it doesn't require any cables it doesn't require a phone 00:56:53.599 --> 00:56:58.960 nothing mind you i could have designed the pico 00:56:57.839 --> 00:57:03.520 goblin by taking some double-sided tape 00:57:01.599 --> 00:57:06.960 and a samsung gear vr or google cardboard 00:57:04.720 --> 00:57:11.680 and taping them together because to say that it doesn't require a phone 00:57:09.200 --> 00:57:19.280 and then tell me that it's running a qualcomm snapdragon 820 CPU with a 5.5 00:57:15.440 --> 00:57:21.040 inch 2560 by 1440 resolution display 3g 00:57:19.280 --> 00:57:27.680 high speed connectivity um doesn't say how much but lp ddr4 RAM 00:57:23.839 --> 00:57:31.760 16 gigs of emc 5.1 rom 00:57:27.680 --> 00:57:33.520 and a 3 500 milliamp hour battery 00:57:31.760 --> 00:57:38.000 is basically like telling me that you guys engineered a phone and then 00:57:35.760 --> 00:57:40.799 glue the headset to it it actually sounds a lot like the specs 00:57:39.520 --> 00:57:46.640 for the lg g4 specs for every phone ever 00:57:45.040 --> 00:57:53.200 with that said it's cheap so it's available for pre-order for 269 bucks if 00:57:49.359 --> 00:57:54.559 you wanted a craptastic vr experience 00:57:53.200 --> 00:58:01.440 because unless it's tracked outside in right now 00:57:58.960 --> 00:58:04.960 we are not there yet but where we are is at the end of the 00:58:03.040 --> 00:58:10.079 show so alex unless you have you looked like you were going to say something 00:58:07.200 --> 00:58:13.599 no okay all right i'm rolling the out trail 00:58:11.839 --> 00:58:18.160 goodbye people they can't hear you there's music um pretty sure they can still hear us 00:58:17.040 --> 00:58:22.559 yeah it's just and some people complain 00:58:20.480 --> 00:58:28.400 i don't know i kind of like it g4 was 808 dude not even close 00:58:26.240 --> 00:58:31.280 so yeah why don't you just get crapped on right there 00:58:30.240 --> 00:58:35.760 does anyone actually care about the snapdragon processors though um 00:58:34.000 --> 00:58:40.880 yeah like they matter a bit but they're all kind of the same thing well like 00:58:38.079 --> 00:58:44.760 they're they get faster i guess so yeah yeah
