1
00:00:04,560 --> 00:00:12,320
All right, guys. Welcome to the WAN Show. This is going to be the first show

2
00:00:09,840 --> 00:00:15,320
in quite some time with no technical difficulties.

3
00:00:15,839 --> 00:00:24,560
Actually, I already know there's going to be one technical difficulty. We accidentally deleted the version of the

4
00:00:20,640 --> 00:00:27,199
WAN Show intro that has audio. So, the

5
00:00:24,560 --> 00:00:34,360
uh guys are currently working on fixing that baby up. And

6
00:00:30,199 --> 00:00:38,640
uh uh hopefully it'll be back for next

7
00:00:34,360 --> 00:00:43,360
week. So uh without much further ado, I

8
00:00:38,640 --> 00:00:45,840
guess uh oh a so many of you. I know for

9
00:00:43,360 --> 00:00:49,840
a fact due to the Twitch delay that you haven't even gotten far enough in the

10
00:00:48,079 --> 00:00:53,399
show for me to have admitted there were going to be difficulties. And you guys

11
00:00:51,840 --> 00:00:59,280
are all like lol. But I I I I I

12
00:00:56,440 --> 00:01:05,519
I know you're right. Anyway, we've got a lot of great topics today. And by we, I

13
00:01:01,280 --> 00:01:07,159
guess I mean I Luke is actually um I

14
00:01:05,519 --> 00:01:15,760
wonder if I'm allowed to say where he is. He's in LA. He was invited there by

15
00:01:11,360 --> 00:01:18,720
a graphics card maker who isn't AMD. So

16
00:01:15,760 --> 00:01:24,720
I guess hopefully I haven't revealed too much. the reason for him being there is

17
00:01:21,200 --> 00:01:28,960
under NDA and he's got Brandom with him.

18
00:01:24,720 --> 00:01:30,640
So, he's definitely making videos. So,

19
00:01:28,960 --> 00:01:35,360
that's all I'll really say, which is kind of a lot, but Luke couldn't be here

20
00:01:32,560 --> 00:01:39,840
with us today, unfortunately. But, I'll do my best to run the show by myself for

21
00:01:37,840 --> 00:01:44,640
y'all. And we've got a lot of great topics this week. Actually, the

22
00:01:41,119 --> 00:01:46,960
Microsoft Surface Pro 4 and more may be

23
00:01:44,640 --> 00:01:52,560
revealed at an October 6 New York City event. Um, I did know about the event. I

24
00:01:50,320 --> 00:01:56,960
unfortunately couldn't make it, so I won't be there, but I'll definitely be

25
00:01:54,640 --> 00:02:00,719
uh checking out what else is is going to be shown off. There's uh there's a few

26
00:01:58,799 --> 00:02:09,039
things that are rumored. Uh Sharp is looking to introduce 8K displays as

27
00:02:04,000 --> 00:02:11,800
early as October of uh this year. So,

28
00:02:09,039 --> 00:02:18,480
that is some pretty bananas stuff right there. Um what else we got? Oh, this is

29
00:02:15,680 --> 00:02:24,480
this is terrible. A 14-year-old student was arrested for bringing a homemade

30
00:02:21,280 --> 00:02:24,480
clock to

31
00:02:24,599 --> 00:02:31,160
school. And before any of you ask, yes,

32
00:02:27,599 --> 00:02:35,920
his last name was Muhammad, which

33
00:02:31,160 --> 00:02:38,000
is not an excuse for arresting him.

34
00:02:35,920 --> 00:02:41,680
Anyway, we'll we'll Yeah, we'll we'll get into that a little bit more later.

35
00:02:39,680 --> 00:02:44,519
And this is this is more big news. Actually, there really is a lot this

36
00:02:43,040 --> 00:02:52,400
week. Um, oh boy. Uh, Jim Keller has left the

37
00:02:49,200 --> 00:02:55,280
building at AMD. He had come back after

38
00:02:52,400 --> 00:03:02,159
a stint at Apple working as the lead architect on the A4 and A5 and had come

39
00:02:58,400 --> 00:03:03,920
back to sort of let AMD's CPU division

40
00:03:02,159 --> 00:03:08,959
rise from the ashes, etc. And yeah, and he's gone. So, uh, and he's gone. So,

41
00:03:07,280 --> 00:03:12,879
so, uh, we we'll have to we'll we'll talk about what this might mean for AMD

42
00:03:10,560 --> 00:03:17,280
over the next couple of years and then possibly over the longer term. So,

43
00:03:15,200 --> 00:03:19,519
without further ado, I'm going to roll the

44
00:03:32,599 --> 00:03:37,799
intro. I've got people saying to move the mic away. I could just get a pop

45
00:03:36,319 --> 00:03:43,280
filter. I don't know where it is, though. Um, so yeah, there's that. And

46
00:03:41,440 --> 00:03:47,440
the show is no longer powered by Razer Coms. That is an

47
00:03:44,760 --> 00:03:51,040
extraordinarily old old version of the intro. There you go. I'll see if you

48
00:03:49,519 --> 00:03:54,879
guys are I'll see if you guys are I'll see if you guys are happy now. So, I'll

49
00:03:53,120 --> 00:03:58,400
do my best over here. Going to be all like, "Hi, Twitch chat. I don't have

50
00:03:56,799 --> 00:04:02,799
Luke to talk to this week, so I'll have to settle for Twitch chat." No offense

51
00:04:00,080 --> 00:04:09,360
you guys, but you are a poor substitute for the uh for the the sexy mastadon of

52
00:04:07,040 --> 00:04:14,480
a man that normally normally sits next to me. I just realized actually too that

53
00:04:12,239 --> 00:04:19,199
I'm kind of on his side. Like I don't know how many of you share a bed with

54
00:04:16,400 --> 00:04:26,000
someone, you know, a significant other, you know, your mom or whatever. I don't

55
00:04:20,799 --> 00:04:27,520
judge. Um but it's weird. Like try try

56
00:04:26,000 --> 00:04:29,680
laying down on the wrong side and you're just

57
00:04:30,120 --> 00:04:36,960
like this is weird. I need to roll. I need to roll now. I need to roll now.

58
00:04:35,360 --> 00:04:40,400
It's kind of the same thing. Actually, this I highly recommend. If you guys are

59
00:04:38,720 --> 00:04:44,000
watching the archive of the show, then you can pause the pause the show and do

60
00:04:42,240 --> 00:04:49,120
this now. If you're live, then you might have to wait till after the show. But if

61
00:04:46,160 --> 00:04:52,479
you ever drink from like um from the faucet, like just kind of

62
00:04:51,280 --> 00:04:56,800
you're like, "Oh, I'm thirsty. I'm in the kitchen. and I'll have dirty a glass if I get a glass. So, I'll just put my

63
00:04:55,440 --> 00:05:01,199
head under the faucet and drink from there. Try doing it the other way. It's

64
00:04:59,600 --> 00:05:05,120
like the most bizarre thing. I was like, "Oh, my mouth doesn't know how to do

65
00:05:02,960 --> 00:05:08,720
this. It's super weird stuff." And I will stop. Actually, I'm not even really

66
00:05:07,440 --> 00:05:12,720
stalling for anything. I I'm legitimately not having any technical

67
00:05:10,479 --> 00:05:16,479
difficulties so far this week. So, uh I'm feeling pretty good. Why don't we

68
00:05:13,919 --> 00:05:19,360
jump right into our first topic here? I'm going to grab the grab the link for

69
00:05:18,240 --> 00:05:24,880
y'all in the chat. And I'm not going to do links the complicated way, so they're going to be kind of ugly and all that,

70
00:05:22,320 --> 00:05:29,680
but uh that's okay. We can live with that. The original poster for this is

71
00:05:27,039 --> 00:05:34,560
Dat Speed over on the forum. Thank you very much for posting this in the news

72
00:05:32,240 --> 00:05:40,639
section. And the article here is from Windows Central. So, it shouldn't be any

73
00:05:38,000 --> 00:05:46,160
huge surprise that with uh both Broadwell and Skylake architecture CPUs

74
00:05:44,320 --> 00:05:50,400
from Intel having been released since the Surface Pro 3, which is still

75
00:05:48,080 --> 00:05:56,720
running Haswell, that there was probably going to be a Surface Pro

76
00:05:53,720 --> 00:05:59,600
4. And no, that thing that Apple

77
00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:05,400
announced back at their event was not a Surface Pro 4. You can tell because

78
00:06:02,240 --> 00:06:09,479
there's no kickstand. Ah, that's one key

79
00:06:05,400 --> 00:06:13,360
difference. And it doesn't run a proper

80
00:06:09,479 --> 00:06:16,240
OS. It runs a mobile OS. So there you

81
00:06:13,360 --> 00:06:19,840
go. And by proper OS, I don't mean that iOS is a bad operating system or it's

82
00:06:18,479 --> 00:06:23,600
not a real operating system. I just mean it's not a full fat operating system.

83
00:06:21,919 --> 00:06:28,080
You're not going to be able to load like the full Adobe Creative Suite on there

84
00:06:25,600 --> 00:06:31,440
and take advantage of that fancy stylus and all of that noise. So there's

85
00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:35,840
actually a few other things that are rumored to show up. Um, the invites

86
00:06:34,479 --> 00:06:40,400
being sent out to the media for the event are for exciting news about

87
00:06:38,240 --> 00:06:45,280
Windows 10 devices. And I did read this particular invite and I kind of went,

88
00:06:43,039 --> 00:06:49,759
well, I wasn't planning to be in New York on October the 6th and sort of I

89
00:06:47,759 --> 00:06:53,919
got a lot of crap to do in general. So, unfortunately, I can't make it. And I

90
00:06:51,759 --> 00:06:57,280
don't think they even offered to like pay for my ticket out there. So, it

91
00:06:55,840 --> 00:07:02,240
really did seem to be kind of an afterthought like, "Hey, what if that Lionus guy wants to show up?" Uh, okay.

92
00:07:01,199 --> 00:07:05,440
Yeah, let's make sure he doesn't get bounced at the door just in case. So, so

93
00:07:04,319 --> 00:07:12,080
it was one of those kinds of things and I was just like, "Yeah, I'm I'm I'm busy. I can't really make it." But that

94
00:07:09,840 --> 00:07:16,560
doesn't mean that I'm not extremely interested to see what they're going to

95
00:07:14,160 --> 00:07:20,560
be up to at the event over there. Uh some other there there are there haven't

96
00:07:18,160 --> 00:07:29,400
been a lot of hints, but some other rumors are that um they will be

97
00:07:23,360 --> 00:07:29,400
announcing the Lumia 950 and 950 XL.

98
00:07:29,560 --> 00:07:35,199
Um, yeah. Okay. And I guess that's uh

99
00:07:33,120 --> 00:07:42,880
that's that's really that's really about it. The code names for a couple of the

100
00:07:37,120 --> 00:07:46,960
devices are Talkman and Cityman, which I

101
00:07:42,880 --> 00:07:49,800
guess tells us that there's talking.

102
00:07:46,960 --> 00:07:54,319
We're aiming at like sort of the urban man. And I mean, you know how the rumor

103
00:07:52,319 --> 00:08:01,120
mill goes. What I've actually learned over the years is that once you get

104
00:07:58,160 --> 00:08:07,599
pretty close to an event or a device launch, the rumor mill is pretty much

105
00:08:04,240 --> 00:08:10,800
95% accurate with the exceptions being

106
00:08:07,599 --> 00:08:13,319
cases like like what NVIDIA pulled on I

107
00:08:10,800 --> 00:08:21,440
think it was the GTX 580 where literally okay and I'm not

108
00:08:17,840 --> 00:08:24,960
even exaggerating at all the people

109
00:08:21,440 --> 00:08:28,479
selling the product. Okay, so your EVGA

110
00:08:24,960 --> 00:08:30,639
or your your MSI or your ASUS, the

111
00:08:28,479 --> 00:08:36,399
people selling the product and the people buying the product, which was me.

112
00:08:32,640 --> 00:08:40,320
I was working at NCIX at the time before

113
00:08:36,399 --> 00:08:44,080
a few hours before the launch did not

114
00:08:40,320 --> 00:08:47,279
know the price. So, I had to cut a

115
00:08:44,080 --> 00:08:51,839
purchase order based on faith. my sales

116
00:08:47,279 --> 00:08:53,440
rep at MSI had to process that order not

117
00:08:51,839 --> 00:08:56,560
knowing how much revenue he was generating or what his commission was

118
00:08:55,360 --> 00:09:01,440
going to be like all these little details right and then NVIDIA dropped a

119
00:08:59,279 --> 00:09:07,120
bomb and dropped the price like right on the launch so there are a few exceptions

120
00:09:04,240 --> 00:09:12,480
but in general if you know a couple days or let's say even you know a few weeks

121
00:09:09,600 --> 00:09:17,839
before an iPhone 6S is announced and you know our buddy Lou over at Unbox Therapy

122
00:09:15,040 --> 00:09:23,360
shows up with iPhones own six plus cases and starts bending them or doing his

123
00:09:19,680 --> 00:09:25,519
thing. Um, it's probably real. So, it's

124
00:09:23,360 --> 00:09:29,920
real unless it's a hoax or or an intentional

125
00:09:27,000 --> 00:09:35,160
deception. Speaking of things that are real, this next topic is pretty bananas.

126
00:09:33,519 --> 00:09:39,080
So, this was posted by HK05 and the original article here is

127
00:09:37,600 --> 00:09:46,880
from the BBC. Let's go ahead and uh pull this

128
00:09:42,000 --> 00:09:48,480
baby up. the first 8K TV screen to be

129
00:09:46,880 --> 00:09:55,839
commercially available. Now, to be clear, I and and I do mean

130
00:09:52,920 --> 00:10:02,800
clear. I miss Luke. I wish he was here to laugh at my terrible jokes. Maybe

131
00:09:58,640 --> 00:10:02,800
Twitch chat is is loling right

132
00:10:03,399 --> 00:10:13,120
now. You guys, come on. It's real. Unless it's a hoax. Well, yeah. Um Okay.

133
00:10:10,959 --> 00:10:19,839
No. Is anyone Is anyone going to laugh at my joke? Haha. Yes. Thank you. The

134
00:10:16,480 --> 00:10:21,440
the no scope. You win. Oh, okay. Oh, I

135
00:10:19,839 --> 00:10:25,120
love you guys. Okay, you guys you guys made me feel good about myself and you

136
00:10:23,440 --> 00:10:30,079
made me feel like I can continue to make those jokes with impunity. Jokes on you.

137
00:10:28,160 --> 00:10:34,959
Um, so sorry. What am I talking about? Right. So, to be clear, 8K displays have

138
00:10:33,120 --> 00:10:39,680
been shown before. I've seen them in person. And I've I've been like this

139
00:10:38,160 --> 00:10:43,760
close to them and I've kind of examined them and I've gone, "Wow, that sure is a

140
00:10:41,279 --> 00:10:50,720
lot of pixels. That sure is clear." That one video file that exists in the entire

141
00:10:47,120 --> 00:10:54,560
universe of a of a locomotive at at 8K

142
00:10:50,720 --> 00:10:56,959
on the show floor at CES. But this is

143
00:10:54,560 --> 00:11:01,680
different. This is a real commercial product and

144
00:11:00,320 --> 00:11:08,000
uh is apparently going to be launching on October 30th, which is appropriate

145
00:11:05,600 --> 00:11:11,640
because that price tag is going to give you quite a scare. It's rumored to be

146
00:11:10,480 --> 00:11:20,720
somewhere in the 12. Wait, is that even right? Hold on a

147
00:11:17,279 --> 00:11:25,360
second. That must be a typo in my notes

148
00:11:20,720 --> 00:11:28,200
for this. That is a typo. So, my notes

149
00:11:25,360 --> 00:11:34,320
for the show say $12,500 to

150
00:11:31,240 --> 00:11:37,920
$13,300. Yeah, I think not. We're

151
00:11:34,320 --> 00:11:42,200
missing a zero here. Yeah. Yeah. So, the

152
00:11:37,920 --> 00:11:46,519
price is going to be well over

153
00:11:42,200 --> 00:11:49,839
$100,000. There's about $125 to

154
00:11:46,519 --> 00:11:52,000
$130,000, which is really not that

155
00:11:49,839 --> 00:11:59,120
unusual when it comes to these uh cutting edge technologies. Like that

156
00:11:54,800 --> 00:11:59,120
image is so sharp, it's cutting

157
00:12:00,120 --> 00:12:06,480
edge. Thanks, guys. Now, I've I've missed where I'm

158
00:12:04,959 --> 00:12:12,079
going with this. And you know what? It will be incredibly sharp. We're talking

159
00:12:09,040 --> 00:12:14,880
four times the number of pixels compared

160
00:12:12,079 --> 00:12:19,760
to 4K. Okay? And you know that comparison that you always see of 4K

161
00:12:16,800 --> 00:12:25,680
displays with a 1080p resolution display kind of in the corner. So 4K is four

162
00:12:22,639 --> 00:12:29,360
times the number of pixels of 1080p and

163
00:12:25,680 --> 00:12:35,160
8K is four times the pixels of 4K. So

164
00:12:29,360 --> 00:12:35,160
the resolution will be 7680x 4320.

165
00:12:35,440 --> 00:12:41,440
So NASA will be delivering 4K space

166
00:12:38,639 --> 00:12:47,760
footage beginning November 1st. Netflix and Amazon, not to mention YouTube, are

167
00:12:44,320 --> 00:12:51,839
offering 4K streaming internet video.

168
00:12:47,760 --> 00:12:54,320
Although with that said, and we've

169
00:12:51,839 --> 00:12:58,399
talked about this a fair bit. In fact, for those of you who haven't checked it

170
00:12:56,240 --> 00:13:02,000
out before, I'm just going to go ahead and uh bring up the video. I'll post it

171
00:13:00,639 --> 00:13:06,639
in the Twitch chat because if you haven't watched this particular video of

172
00:13:03,839 --> 00:13:15,120
ours, it is definitely worth worth a look. Uh 4K, is it a place? Is it worth

173
00:13:11,120 --> 00:13:16,639
it? Here we go. Oh, that's weird. Oh,

174
00:13:15,120 --> 00:13:22,560
that's just a little custom test I run. Okay, so you guys definitely want to check this out because there's a lot

175
00:13:19,600 --> 00:13:28,079
more at play when it comes to high quality picture than the resolution.

176
00:13:25,839 --> 00:13:31,519
things like, you know, dynamic range, any color grading that's being done on

177
00:13:29,760 --> 00:13:37,320
it, things like uh, you know, alterations made to sharpness to enhance

178
00:13:33,839 --> 00:13:40,560
the or detract from the picture quality.

179
00:13:37,320 --> 00:13:43,360
Um, things like the bit rate that the

180
00:13:40,560 --> 00:13:48,240
media you're actually streaming. So, just because you know

181
00:13:45,880 --> 00:13:53,040
you're you're going to, you know, watch online content in 4K doesn't actually

182
00:13:50,399 --> 00:13:58,600
necessarily mean it looks better at all than a 1080p Blu-ray. Um, speaking of

183
00:13:56,279 --> 00:14:04,880
Blu-ray, um, something something something. Can't

184
00:14:01,800 --> 00:14:06,560
remember. Uh, yeah, I think 4K Blu-rays

185
00:14:04,880 --> 00:14:10,399
are finally showing up like sometime soon or something like that. So, why am

186
00:14:08,160 --> 00:14:15,440
I talking about 4K content in the context of an 8K TV? Well, for one

187
00:14:12,480 --> 00:14:19,279
thing, upscaling is a thing and can help a little bit. And for another thing,

188
00:14:17,440 --> 00:14:25,519
it's to make the point that back when a 4K display was costing you six figures,

189
00:14:23,600 --> 00:14:29,040
um, it's not until now that you're finally getting content for it. So, I

190
00:14:27,199 --> 00:14:32,880
guess what I'm trying to say is as cool a piece of technology as this is, I

191
00:14:31,120 --> 00:14:37,199
wouldn't recommend that you run out and buy it. Now, that's not to say that

192
00:14:34,480 --> 00:14:42,959
there will be no content whatsoever. Uh, NHK, Japan Broadcasting Corporation,

193
00:14:39,600 --> 00:14:46,360
will start to broadcast in its 8K super

194
00:14:42,959 --> 00:14:48,120
high vision format sometime in

195
00:14:46,360 --> 00:14:53,440
2018. Um, so yeah, and I mean, you know what?

196
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:58,320
This is something that a lot of people are really confused about right now, and

197
00:14:55,680 --> 00:15:02,959
that is, well, hold on a second. There's 8K cameras now. Like I I I can't I can

198
00:15:01,199 --> 00:15:07,360
never keep track of what Red calls their stupid cameras, but I I think it's

199
00:15:04,639 --> 00:15:11,760
weapon is the latest one. We went from the

200
00:15:09,199 --> 00:15:11,760
uh what just

201
00:15:16,040 --> 00:15:23,480
happened? Did my feed just cut out? I

202
00:15:19,519 --> 00:15:23,480
promise no technical diff.

203
00:15:27,440 --> 00:15:33,600
Uh did you guys ever Uh turned

204
00:15:42,199 --> 00:15:46,199
off battery.

205
00:15:55,600 --> 00:16:01,720
Uh okay. Come plug it in when you get a chance.

206
00:15:58,720 --> 00:16:01,720
Hello.

207
00:16:02,639 --> 00:16:12,240
Uh, the camera's on, right?

208
00:16:05,839 --> 00:16:12,240
Uh, the camera. Yeah, it is. Yeah. Uh,

209
00:16:14,120 --> 00:16:17,440
oh. I'm

210
00:16:18,199 --> 00:16:26,160
refreshing. It's It's on, right? Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Oh, there we go. How many

211
00:16:24,720 --> 00:16:29,360
times you mentioned no technical difficulty? Yeah, I know, right? All

212
00:16:28,079 --> 00:16:34,240
right, I don't remember what I was talking about anymore. So, something

213
00:16:31,199 --> 00:16:36,399
something 8K 4K something, whatever.

214
00:16:34,240 --> 00:16:41,600
Let's move on to the next topic. So, NVIDIA's Game Stream Co-op has entered

215
00:16:39,519 --> 00:16:45,800
beta. This was posted on the forum by Shadow Bullet. And our source for this

216
00:16:44,160 --> 00:16:51,440
is well, the NVIDIA.com website. So, this is some

217
00:16:49,120 --> 00:16:56,160
pretty cool stuff. And actually for us over here was one of the big highlights

218
00:16:53,519 --> 00:17:02,639
of the recent NVIDIA graphics card launch, the uh the 950. Not because, you

219
00:16:59,759 --> 00:17:06,039
know, the 950 isn't a cool card, you know, fair price and all that stuff, but

220
00:17:04,160 --> 00:17:12,000
because this kind of technology is driving gaming forward in

221
00:17:09,520 --> 00:17:17,679
a way that a new, you know, bang for the buck mid-range to low-end graphics

222
00:17:15,199 --> 00:17:23,919
processor isn't. Because quite frankly, when NVIDIA launches a GTX, you know,

223
00:17:19,839 --> 00:17:27,280
960 or 950 or whatever, they're not

224
00:17:23,919 --> 00:17:30,240
they're not breaking new ground. This is

225
00:17:27,280 --> 00:17:34,720
performance that we already had with the previous generation, just at a higher

226
00:17:32,480 --> 00:17:38,960
price point. So, like that's cool and lower prices and more performance for

227
00:17:36,240 --> 00:17:41,840
all is great, but the reason that we don't, you know, get all that excited

228
00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:48,000
about it is because it's not bringing us new gaming experiences. This on the

229
00:17:44,000 --> 00:17:50,240
other hand is some pretty cool shiz. So

230
00:17:48,000 --> 00:17:54,240
basically NVIDIA graphics card users can now phone a friend to get through a

231
00:17:52,400 --> 00:18:01,200
game's tough spots with the latest beta. So, to use GameStream Co-op, the host PC

232
00:17:57,039 --> 00:18:04,480
needs a GTX 650 or higher desktop GPU or

233
00:18:01,200 --> 00:18:06,720
a 660M or higher laptop card, a Core

234
00:18:04,480 --> 00:18:11,120
i32100 or higher CPU with at least 4 gigs of RAM, which probably you have if

235
00:18:09,280 --> 00:18:15,840
you have a current generation graphics card, and you need at least 7 megabit

236
00:18:14,000 --> 00:18:22,559
per second of upstream bandwidth along with a decent router. So after receiving

237
00:18:19,840 --> 00:18:26,559
an invite, the guest can actually launch the stream like a like a live stream of

238
00:18:24,480 --> 00:18:30,400
the game you're playing using a Google Chrome extension. So it's designed for

239
00:18:28,559 --> 00:18:35,360
DirectX9 games or higher. So unfortunately those of you who want to

240
00:18:32,000 --> 00:18:37,120
play, you know, the Matrix or whatever

241
00:18:35,360 --> 00:18:41,760
on game stream co-op, you might be you might be out of luck. And streams are

242
00:18:38,799 --> 00:18:46,320
capped at 720p 30fps with co-op sessions limited to 60 minutes at a time before

243
00:18:44,080 --> 00:18:51,679
the host needs to send another invite. But, uh, yeah, pretty darn cool. There's

244
00:18:49,440 --> 00:19:00,559
integrated YouTube upload capabilities and a new in-game overlay. So, um, yeah,

245
00:18:56,799 --> 00:19:02,160
I'm I'm I'm liking it. Oh, I remember

246
00:19:00,559 --> 00:19:05,679
what I was going to talk about next on the 8K video thing. So, some of you

247
00:19:04,240 --> 00:19:09,679
might be thinking, "Okay, Lionus, hold on a second. There's 8K cameras out

248
00:19:07,360 --> 00:19:13,840
there like uh, you know, Red's latest, you know, awesome named product or

249
00:19:11,760 --> 00:19:18,720
whatever the case may In fact, I think um I think Marcus Brownley actually has

250
00:19:15,760 --> 00:19:22,720
his camera out for the upgrade right now as we speak if he has hasn't got it back

251
00:19:21,039 --> 00:19:27,520
already. And you're probably thinking, "So, well, come on. These Hollywood guys

252
00:19:25,120 --> 00:19:31,360
out there and these, you know, big shot YouTubers with their big, you know,

253
00:19:29,360 --> 00:19:36,320
studios, why aren't they just all buying 8K cameras and releasing all their

254
00:19:33,039 --> 00:19:38,679
videos at 8K?" Because there are a lot

255
00:19:36,320 --> 00:19:43,679
of other problems. So, problem number one is the workflow. Okay, working with

256
00:19:41,679 --> 00:19:48,039
8K footage, we're talking file sizes that are massively bigger than 1080p and

257
00:19:47,200 --> 00:19:53,039
even 4K is going to put additional strain on

258
00:19:50,480 --> 00:19:57,360
your processor, on your storage devices, on your network, if you work over the

259
00:19:54,720 --> 00:20:04,080
network like we do. Uh, problem number two is on camera and generally storage

260
00:20:01,600 --> 00:20:10,480
like just storing these massive files all over the place is a significant

261
00:20:06,400 --> 00:20:13,919
issue. Okay, problem number three is

262
00:20:10,480 --> 00:20:16,559
who's watching this? And while we did

263
00:20:13,919 --> 00:20:21,280
discover that playing back 4K video on your 1080p monitor on YouTube, if you

264
00:20:19,600 --> 00:20:26,240
have the bandwidth, if you have the internet connection for it does offer a

265
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:31,799
benefit thanks to the higher uh the higher bit rate of the

266
00:20:28,039 --> 00:20:34,880
content for 8K. I

267
00:20:31,799 --> 00:20:36,880
mean, that may be a benefit, but in that

268
00:20:34,880 --> 00:20:41,679
case, you don't need to shoot on an 8K camera anyway. You might as well shoot

269
00:20:38,559 --> 00:20:45,120
on a 1080p, even a good 1080p camera or

270
00:20:41,679 --> 00:20:47,840
a 4K camera and then just export at HK.

271
00:20:45,120 --> 00:20:52,880
Which leads us to yet another problem, and that is exporting at 8K. Uh, codec

272
00:20:50,480 --> 00:20:57,840
support really isn't there yet. Um, I exported an 8K file on a fairly powerful

273
00:20:55,200 --> 00:21:02,400
computer, very powerful 36 core machine, and it just completely crapped the bed.

274
00:21:00,159 --> 00:21:06,799
And then yet another issue is that display interfaces haven't even caught

275
00:21:04,799 --> 00:21:12,400
up yet. So even if people did want to go and buy $100,000 TVs, even if like every

276
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:16,720
millionaire in the world was like, "We want to push 8K forward. Let's bring us

277
00:21:14,720 --> 00:21:21,919
8K now. We're going to like we're going to all buy 8K TVs if you guys will start

278
00:21:18,960 --> 00:21:25,840
broadcasting in 8K." And uh the issue is that I don't think we even have a

279
00:21:23,440 --> 00:21:30,960
display interface that is gonna like I don't even know how they're planning to

280
00:21:26,799 --> 00:21:33,520
drive this thing. Maybe HDMI 2.0 30 Hz.

281
00:21:30,960 --> 00:21:39,679
Maybe that'll work. I don't even know cuz HDMI 2.0 I know can do 40k 60 Hz but

282
00:21:38,159 --> 00:21:43,360
uh maybe you guys will maybe you guys will have to let me know. And then and

283
00:21:41,200 --> 00:21:50,000
then the final the final issue with 8K that will I think really like I think 8K

284
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:56,880
adoption and you guys can you guys can you guys can quote me on this. 8K

285
00:21:52,360 --> 00:22:00,760
adoption will be as much slower than 4K

286
00:21:56,880 --> 00:22:06,600
adoption as 4K was than

287
00:22:00,760 --> 00:22:12,799
1080p. And 1080p was relatively uh was

288
00:22:06,600 --> 00:22:14,559
relatively fast. 4K is taking forever

289
00:22:12,799 --> 00:22:19,840
because you're counting on all these infrastructure upgrades in the back end.

290
00:22:16,640 --> 00:22:22,480
It's it's almost no content that's being

291
00:22:19,840 --> 00:22:27,919
broadcast like via traditional broadcast in 4K uh with only like web companies

292
00:22:25,600 --> 00:22:31,919
doing what I would call cheapo 4K because there hasn't been an

293
00:22:30,080 --> 00:22:37,200
infrastructure upgrade to make it possible. Not really. we're still

294
00:22:34,000 --> 00:22:38,960
talking bit rates that are quite low

295
00:22:37,200 --> 00:22:44,000
compared to, you know, something like a 1080p blue Blu-ray, even though you've

296
00:22:41,760 --> 00:22:50,320
upped the resolution. So, so all these infrastructure upgrades, I think 8K

297
00:22:46,400 --> 00:22:53,520
could be, you know, 10 years, 20 years

298
00:22:50,320 --> 00:22:55,520
before anyone even gives a crap at all.

299
00:22:53,520 --> 00:22:59,520
And the reason for that is that it all comes down to Apple's retina marketing.

300
00:22:58,080 --> 00:23:03,919
And I'm not saying Apple's retina marketing in the in the sense that like

301
00:23:02,000 --> 00:23:06,880
because Apple's full of snake oil and they've convinced someone everyone that

302
00:23:05,520 --> 00:23:11,880
you know retina is the only thing that's important or or whatever. Um but because

303
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:16,880
of the retina concept in which there's actually a fair

304
00:23:14,799 --> 00:23:21,440
bit of truth to be had, you know, with a with a good quality display with

305
00:23:18,400 --> 00:23:23,679
accurate color management and with high

306
00:23:21,440 --> 00:23:28,320
contrast which matters more to image quality than you would think. And I

307
00:23:26,000 --> 00:23:34,159
don't mean turning up the contrast knob. That's bad. I mean high high a high

308
00:23:32,159 --> 00:23:37,799
difference between the brightness level of white versus the brightness level of

309
00:23:36,320 --> 00:23:43,840
black. Um so something something right the

310
00:23:41,679 --> 00:23:49,760
basically the concept that there's a certain number of pixels needed at the

311
00:23:47,039 --> 00:23:54,799
optimal or usual viewing distance to make it so that the viewer cannot

312
00:23:51,760 --> 00:23:57,919
discern any additional improvement in

313
00:23:54,799 --> 00:24:01,520
image quality from adding more pixels.

314
00:23:57,919 --> 00:24:04,080
And I would make the argument that 1080

315
00:24:01,520 --> 00:24:09,080
is already there unless you've got like eagle eye vision. 4K, yeah, you'll

316
00:24:07,520 --> 00:24:15,600
probably see some improvement, especially once you start seeing content

317
00:24:12,159 --> 00:24:17,600
that was shot in 4K, which isn't going

318
00:24:15,600 --> 00:24:22,400
to look quite as clean and quite as crisp on a 1080p display. like it like

319
00:24:20,240 --> 00:24:26,960
the content improvement is going to be as much probably of what you see in

320
00:24:24,400 --> 00:24:32,080
terms of wow 4K is so much better as the resolution improvement and going from 4K

321
00:24:29,679 --> 00:24:36,480
to 8K at what would be the typical like we've gotten to the to the limit of how

322
00:24:34,480 --> 00:24:40,640
big of a TV people want to put in their living rooms like I don't know about you

323
00:24:38,320 --> 00:24:46,480
guys but my living room doesn't have room for a 100inch TV so TVs are going

324
00:24:44,640 --> 00:24:50,799
to be and and there's there shipping logistical like like it's hard to it's

325
00:24:48,640 --> 00:24:54,159
hard to ship around TVs that are bigger than that. They're very easy to damage.

326
00:24:52,320 --> 00:24:58,640
They're hard to lift. Like, like we're pretty much at the limit now in terms of

327
00:24:56,400 --> 00:25:02,799
what people are going to want for a typical living room TV screen. Now, the

328
00:25:00,720 --> 00:25:06,640
home theater guys, they're a different ball of wax, but they always have been,

329
00:25:05,039 --> 00:25:11,520
and they're going to keep wanting, you know, projectors or like, you know, roll

330
00:25:08,799 --> 00:25:17,159
out displays that are, you know, 150 in or whatever the case may be. But but for

331
00:25:13,960 --> 00:25:20,080
now, 8K is not going to offer a tangible

332
00:25:17,159 --> 00:25:23,760
benefit for normal users putting normalsiz TVs in normal homes and

333
00:25:22,320 --> 00:25:29,279
sitting a normal distance away from them. You can mark my words on that. 8K

334
00:25:26,799 --> 00:25:35,279
already doesn't matter. But hey, if you want to have dem bragging rights or

335
00:25:31,799 --> 00:25:37,679
whatever, then you can drop $130,000 on

336
00:25:35,279 --> 00:25:41,840
a Sharp 8K display and you can feel pretty good about yourself because

337
00:25:39,360 --> 00:25:45,039
that'll be Apparently Twitch Chat wants Dennis.

338
00:25:43,760 --> 00:25:50,159
I don't know. Hey, Dennis, do you want to come say hi to Twitch chat?

339
00:25:48,880 --> 00:25:57,320
Well, no, you have to come over here. Also, you have to be Dennis.

340
00:25:53,679 --> 00:25:59,960
I am Dennis. Hello. You are not Dennis.

341
00:25:57,320 --> 00:26:04,240
And oh my goodness. Well, okay. Dennis is on his

342
00:26:02,400 --> 00:26:07,679
way over. Twitch chat is getting what they wanted. Apparently Burkel's on his

343
00:26:06,000 --> 00:26:12,320
way over, too. I didn't know if you were talking to me or not. I I wasn't talking

344
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:18,559
to you. You can No, I am talking to you, Dennis. No, I I was talking to Burkel

345
00:26:15,760 --> 00:26:23,720
when I said I wasn't talking to you. Okay,

346
00:26:20,559 --> 00:26:27,360
the microphone's here.

347
00:26:23,720 --> 00:26:28,880
Hello. What? What's going on?

348
00:26:27,360 --> 00:26:33,840
Okay. Thank you, Dennis. Is there anything happening? No, no, that's

349
00:26:30,640 --> 00:26:37,200
that's an image of us. Oh, cool. The

350
00:26:33,840 --> 00:26:40,799
camera's over there.

351
00:26:37,200 --> 00:26:43,440
Rolling shooting something.

352
00:26:40,799 --> 00:26:50,159
Carry on, guys. Are we too loud over there? No, no, no, not at all. Uh,

353
00:26:47,720 --> 00:26:54,240
Dennis. We actually had someone post on the forum that apparently we all hate

354
00:26:51,840 --> 00:26:58,159
Dennis or something like that. Do you think I'd hire him if I didn't

355
00:26:56,000 --> 00:27:02,640
like him? If I didn't think he was a fantastic member of our team? And Dennis

356
00:27:00,799 --> 00:27:06,080
doesn't have to be here. He's a highly skilled individual. Like, he he probably

357
00:27:04,640 --> 00:27:10,159
doesn't get enough credit for all the stuff that he's been doing around here.

358
00:27:07,679 --> 00:27:16,799
Uh Dennis has edited uh personal rig update part one on the LTT channel. He

359
00:27:12,720 --> 00:27:20,159
also edited the um the uh ah right, that

360
00:27:16,799 --> 00:27:22,720
is a cool video. the uh the desk PC

361
00:27:20,159 --> 00:27:26,080
build with like the the components clipped into well not okay I won't spoil

362
00:27:24,640 --> 00:27:33,360
the surprise but however they're attached to the bottom of the desk he filmed and edited that on a Saturday no

363
00:27:30,559 --> 00:27:38,080
less totally totally good guy uh he edits almost all of Fast as possible now

364
00:27:35,840 --> 00:27:41,840
so so yeah he's an extremely valuable member of the team and I'd like to

365
00:27:39,279 --> 00:27:45,960
dispel any rumors that we don't uh we don't love Dennis around

366
00:27:43,640 --> 00:27:50,799
here all right let's go ahead and move On to our

367
00:27:48,400 --> 00:27:55,200
next topic. This is some cool stuff. The original article here is from

368
00:27:53,000 --> 00:28:02,399
bgr.com and I'm sorry I've been forgetting to post links for you guys. I

369
00:27:58,200 --> 00:28:06,320
suck. And the OP on the forum was Joss.

370
00:28:02,399 --> 00:28:09,200
Cool stuff. This transparent solar

371
00:28:06,320 --> 00:28:14,000
powered battery looks like a futuristic Tony Stark invention is the headline

372
00:28:12,240 --> 00:28:18,840
over there. And it looks like some pretty cool stuff. So, it's a fully

373
00:28:16,720 --> 00:28:26,320
transparent solar cell that could in theory turn every window and screen into

374
00:28:23,600 --> 00:28:30,960
a power source. Like remember on your Game Gear, you know, it would come with

375
00:28:28,320 --> 00:28:34,919
a warning that says, "Do not leave the screen in direct

376
00:28:32,760 --> 00:28:40,159
sunlight." That could be a thing of the past. What if it's a requirement that

377
00:28:38,159 --> 00:28:44,080
you run your devices with the screen in direct sunlight? Yeah. Now, that's a

378
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:49,600
future that I'm talking about. So, this was developed by a team of researchers

379
00:28:46,000 --> 00:28:51,080
at the co Koga Quinn. Yeah. Okay.

380
00:28:49,600 --> 00:28:55,919
Whatever. Um, co I have actually have not heard of

381
00:28:54,159 --> 00:28:59,840
that university before. I'm really sorry to everyone from there who's watching.

382
00:28:57,760 --> 00:29:04,720
Um, and it was influenced by ubiquitous energy. So, it contains a lithium ion

383
00:29:02,799 --> 00:29:09,600
battery that is not entirely transparent. It becomes slightly tinted

384
00:29:07,200 --> 00:29:15,880
when exposed to sunlight. When it's fully discharged, the light transmission

385
00:29:12,440 --> 00:29:18,480
transmittance rises to approximately

386
00:29:15,880 --> 00:29:23,600
60%. So the team shrunk down the electrodes all the way down to around 80

387
00:29:21,039 --> 00:29:27,520
to 90 nmters to allow light to pass through. So they've been working on this

388
00:29:25,039 --> 00:29:31,840
technology for about 4 years since a team of researchers at Stan Stanford

389
00:29:29,520 --> 00:29:37,039
came up with the concept. Uh the concept was demoed at Innovation Japan earlier

390
00:29:33,760 --> 00:29:37,039
this month and it's not

391
00:29:37,240 --> 00:29:46,600
clear how long it will take to be used in commercial products. So the prototype

392
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:53,240
uh currently has an efficiency of around 1%. Okay, so you know nothing super you

393
00:29:50,919 --> 00:29:58,000
know world revolutionary yet but uh they think that

394
00:29:55,679 --> 00:30:02,240
10% should be possible once production commences. So, it's scalable and

395
00:30:00,159 --> 00:30:07,840
affordable from smartphones all the way up to industrial size Windows. And let

396
00:30:04,480 --> 00:30:09,760
me tell you, if we could convert the

397
00:30:07,840 --> 00:30:15,600
random sunlight coming into our warehouse and our office and heating it

398
00:30:12,000 --> 00:30:18,840
up in the summer into energy, we would

399
00:30:15,600 --> 00:30:21,200
be totally down for

400
00:30:18,840 --> 00:30:25,520
that. I had a feeling there were like some straw pole things that I wanted to

401
00:30:23,440 --> 00:30:30,480
do today. And I've completely I've completely forgotten what any of the

402
00:30:27,279 --> 00:30:32,399
ideas I wanted to do were. But uh oh, I

403
00:30:30,480 --> 00:30:37,200
would like to talk about a little project that I worked on

404
00:30:34,840 --> 00:30:43,200
today. Just in the meantime, I'm going to request a glass of water from someone

405
00:30:40,720 --> 00:30:48,399
because I have done a lot of talking today. I shot uh too fast as possible

406
00:30:46,320 --> 00:30:53,840
some like random bits that someone needed for another video right before

407
00:30:50,000 --> 00:30:56,559
WAN Show today. And then earlier today,

408
00:30:53,840 --> 00:31:04,799
I finally did it. I've had a lot of requests for more spots for my son, and

409
00:31:02,000 --> 00:31:11,600
I finally felt like he was ready to carry his dad's torch and take over

410
00:31:08,240 --> 00:31:15,360
Lionus Media Group. He is hosting with

411
00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:18,480
some help from dad, his very first PC

412
00:31:15,360 --> 00:31:20,399
build log. Yes, my friends. My

413
00:31:18,480 --> 00:31:24,720
three-year-old came into the office today. In fact, it's it's so funny. It's

414
00:31:22,559 --> 00:31:30,799
like he comes in, he does a PC build log, and now he is actually in the

415
00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:34,320
library having a nap. Um, so he built

416
00:31:30,799 --> 00:31:36,080
his very first PC today. Taran got the

417
00:31:34,320 --> 00:31:41,679
whole thing on camera and is recording it as we speak right now. And that will

418
00:31:38,960 --> 00:31:46,159
be uploaded on Vessel uh this weekend, which means it should land on YouTube

419
00:31:43,840 --> 00:31:50,000
sometime next week. So, that is going to be some good stuff. Look at that. He

420
00:31:48,320 --> 00:31:53,000
even put ice in it. You are such a suckup.

421
00:31:58,679 --> 00:32:05,039
That is not going to last long. So,

422
00:32:02,559 --> 00:32:12,880
let's go ahead and jump into our next topic here. This is really sad. Uh, this

423
00:32:09,039 --> 00:32:16,080
was posted by Rune on the forum and uh

424
00:32:12,880 --> 00:32:18,000
it's just like

425
00:32:16,080 --> 00:32:21,279
I don't know. I don't I don't really know what is there what is there to

426
00:32:19,760 --> 00:32:24,960
really say about this other than than that it totally sucks. This has been

427
00:32:22,960 --> 00:32:29,799
making this has been making waves this week. Uh the post that I've got on it

428
00:32:26,880 --> 00:32:36,480
here is uh from the Verge. So 18-year-old Ahmed Muhammad arrested for

429
00:32:32,960 --> 00:32:40,440
bringing a homemade clock to school.

430
00:32:36,480 --> 00:32:44,320
Now, to be clear, he has been released,

431
00:32:40,440 --> 00:32:45,519
but not until after he'd been Okay.

432
00:32:44,320 --> 00:32:52,080
Well, here, why don't we start at the beginning? So, he lives in Irving, and has a keen interest in robotics and

433
00:32:49,159 --> 00:32:56,799
engineering. Cool. All right. Uh, put the device together on Sunday night. was

434
00:32:54,799 --> 00:33:02,240
pulled out of class the next day, interviewed by police officers, and

435
00:32:59,279 --> 00:33:08,120
taken in handcuffs to juvenile detention after being told by teachers that his

436
00:33:04,559 --> 00:33:11,919
creation looked like a bomb.

437
00:33:08,120 --> 00:33:14,640
Now, I mean, is this is this what

438
00:33:11,919 --> 00:33:20,799
happens? We have Looney Tunes to thank. This is what happens when an entire

439
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:24,960
generation of kids grows up watching,

440
00:33:20,799 --> 00:33:28,080
you know, wy coyote strap himself to,

441
00:33:24,960 --> 00:33:30,960
you know, rockets and build bombs out of

442
00:33:28,080 --> 00:33:38,200
like dynamite sticks with clocks attached to them on Saturday mornings

443
00:33:34,640 --> 00:33:41,039
and then grows up and becomes the adults

444
00:33:38,200 --> 00:33:44,480
because a bomb. So, so to be clear, the simple device was created from a circuit

445
00:33:42,799 --> 00:33:50,760
board and a power supply wired to a digital display all strapped inside a

446
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:53,360
case with a tiger hologram on the

447
00:33:50,760 --> 00:33:57,720
front. So, because everyone thinks that anything with a display on the front

448
00:33:55,679 --> 00:34:04,080
looks like a bomb, this guy gets taken away from

449
00:34:00,720 --> 00:34:08,320
school in handcuffs. I mean, what is

450
00:34:04,080 --> 00:34:11,040
this what is this doing for and I like I

451
00:34:08,320 --> 00:34:14,560
tend not to get into the whole like, you know, what's the right way to combat

452
00:34:12,800 --> 00:34:19,040
racism because quite frankly, it's a little outside my wheelhouse. I'm going

453
00:34:16,560 --> 00:34:24,320
to stick to building PCs, which is what I'm usually good at.

454
00:34:21,960 --> 00:34:28,720
But does this seem like the kind of thing that's going to break down race

455
00:34:25,960 --> 00:34:33,520
barriers? you know, hauling away the brown kid in handcuffs because he had

456
00:34:31,520 --> 00:34:40,159
the audacity to bring something to school that someone thought looked like

457
00:34:35,679 --> 00:34:41,919
a bomb when the adult way, and you know,

458
00:34:40,159 --> 00:34:45,599
at 14 you should be able to deal with this the adult way. The adult way to

459
00:34:44,320 --> 00:34:49,679
deal with this would be to be like, "Hey, what is that?" And he'd be like,

460
00:34:47,359 --> 00:34:54,000
"A clock." And you'd be like, "Oh, cool. Show me how it works. We could just

461
00:34:51,839 --> 00:34:59,839
communicate with each other. Seems like kind of an okay idea. I know I'm making

462
00:34:56,879 --> 00:35:03,520
statements and then I'm, you know, my my intonation at the end of my sentences

463
00:35:01,359 --> 00:35:09,960
sounds like a question, but it's because I'm questioning everything right now.

464
00:35:06,200 --> 00:35:13,640
So, very frustrating.

465
00:35:09,960 --> 00:35:18,079
Um, but I mean,

466
00:35:13,640 --> 00:35:20,000
basically, the good news is that the PR

467
00:35:18,079 --> 00:35:24,480
train is rolling on this whole thing. Barack Obama has invited him to the

468
00:35:22,480 --> 00:35:29,920
White House saying that the states needs more kids like him who are taking an

469
00:35:27,280 --> 00:35:36,320
interest in being makers at a young age. Uh Mark Zuckerberg has reached out and

470
00:35:32,000 --> 00:35:37,839
invited him to Facebook HQ. Um a JPL

471
00:35:36,320 --> 00:35:42,720
engineer has invited him to come check out a Mars rover whenever he wants. So

472
00:35:39,839 --> 00:35:50,079
to be clear, happy ending to the story, but this is just insanity. and and and

473
00:35:46,400 --> 00:35:52,720
at any stage someone could and should

474
00:35:50,079 --> 00:35:58,720
have stopped it. So if some kid was like, "Hey, he's got a bomb." All the

475
00:35:56,079 --> 00:36:02,560
teacher had to do was go and look at it. And you know, it's one thing if he, you

476
00:36:00,640 --> 00:36:05,920
know, plants it in a kid's locker he doesn't like and phones in a bomb threat

477
00:36:04,160 --> 00:36:10,480
to the school. Now we're having a serious conversation about, you know,

478
00:36:07,839 --> 00:36:14,160
young Ahmed needing a stern talking to and, you know, should probably be hauled

479
00:36:12,400 --> 00:36:17,680
off in handcuffs. But it's another thing if some kid's like, "Oh yeah, you know

480
00:36:15,839 --> 00:36:21,359
that guy has a bomb." And the teacher looks at it for freaking you're supposed

481
00:36:20,079 --> 00:36:25,760
to have a degree. You're supposed to be an educator for like two seconds. Talks

482
00:36:23,680 --> 00:36:30,160
to the kid for two seconds and avoids the call to the cops. And then the cops

483
00:36:28,240 --> 00:36:35,680
have every opportunity to tell everyone to calm the truck down. It's not a bomb,

484
00:36:32,720 --> 00:36:41,320
which you were clearly told already, and not haul them off in handcuffs. Just

485
00:36:37,599 --> 00:36:41,320
absolutely ridiculous.

486
00:36:44,960 --> 00:36:52,480
I'm sorry you guys have to listen to me sucking back water, but I really, really

487
00:36:50,079 --> 00:36:56,960
need it. All right, so this is good stuff. This is posted by Aming on the

488
00:36:54,960 --> 00:37:01,800
forum. Thank you very much, Aming for posting this. I'm going to go ahead and

489
00:36:58,720 --> 00:37:04,079
copy the link to Android

490
00:37:01,800 --> 00:37:07,920
Authority. Here we go. And then let's go ahead and screen share with you guys.

491
00:37:06,079 --> 00:37:13,119
Bubby, where is it? Yep, there it is. All right, Qualcomm introduces

492
00:37:10,160 --> 00:37:18,160
QuickCharge 3.0, powering up devices four times faster. I always love those

493
00:37:16,480 --> 00:37:23,520
claims with, you know, the little asterisk next to the number. Four times

494
00:37:20,640 --> 00:37:27,839
if you compare to when it was a caveman spinning a stick like this with a wire

495
00:37:26,079 --> 00:37:32,640
attached to the bottom of it, plugged into the bottom of your phone. Um, so

496
00:37:30,560 --> 00:37:37,280
no, it is not four times faster than Quick Charge 2.0, 0, but it is

497
00:37:35,440 --> 00:37:42,079
definitely raising the bar for fast charging and not on just Apple devices.

498
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:46,400
Like Apple has always been pretty good at this stuff. Now, in the last few

499
00:37:44,720 --> 00:37:50,880
generations of Quick Charge, Qualcomm has allowed pretty much any Android

500
00:37:48,880 --> 00:37:55,359
device out there, as long as they're willing to invest in the supported

501
00:37:52,480 --> 00:38:01,839
products from Qualcomm, haha, uh to have fast intelligent battery charging. So,

502
00:37:57,760 --> 00:38:03,680
Quick Charge 1.0 was 40% faster than

503
00:38:01,839 --> 00:38:10,640
conventional charging. With Quick Charge 2.0 being 75% faster than conventional

504
00:38:07,119 --> 00:38:14,240
charging and Quick Charge 3.0 being 38%

505
00:38:10,640 --> 00:38:19,119
faster than Quick Charge 2.0. This is

506
00:38:14,240 --> 00:38:21,119
cool. It's USB typeC ready. So, I mean,

507
00:38:19,119 --> 00:38:24,160
it seems to me, and I don't have any particular industry insight on this.

508
00:38:22,800 --> 00:38:27,920
Maybe someone has already covered this somewhere, in which case feel free to

509
00:38:26,000 --> 00:38:32,839
tell me I'm an idiot or whatever. that it seems to me like what happened with

510
00:38:29,680 --> 00:38:35,520
the OnePlus 2 was that during product

511
00:38:32,839 --> 00:38:41,440
development type C the connector was ready but the the the backend quick

512
00:38:38,560 --> 00:38:46,000
charge circuitry was not ready for that connector and that standard yet. So,

513
00:38:43,920 --> 00:38:51,760
OnePlus was forced to release the two with the type-C connector, which was a

514
00:38:48,000 --> 00:38:55,040
good call. Durability, reversability, A+

515
00:38:51,760 --> 00:38:57,599
for that, but without rapid charging,

516
00:38:55,040 --> 00:39:02,160
which for some people is a serious drawback. Well, now it's ready. And any

517
00:39:00,720 --> 00:39:06,000
phones that we see that are developed now that the technology is finished

518
00:39:04,160 --> 00:39:12,240
should be able to support both of those things at the same time.

519
00:39:08,960 --> 00:39:13,680
So, aside from achieving insane charging

520
00:39:12,240 --> 00:39:17,760
speeds, this is the first time that Qualcomm is using intelligent

521
00:39:15,240 --> 00:39:23,040
negotiation for optimum voltage, which is a new algorithm to determine how much

522
00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:24,480
voltage that they should request. So,

523
00:39:23,040 --> 00:39:34,000
this will ship in devices with the Snapdragon 820, 620, 618, and

524
00:39:28,599 --> 00:39:37,680
430. Good stuff. Now, here is here is a

525
00:39:34,000 --> 00:39:40,960
thing though. Um, it is common knowledge

526
00:39:37,680 --> 00:39:43,359
I think amongst the technology savvy

527
00:39:40,960 --> 00:39:49,200
folks out there that charging your battery faster does a couple of things.

528
00:39:46,560 --> 00:39:54,560
Number one is it gets you back up and running sooner and number two is it

529
00:39:51,280 --> 00:39:56,079
causes your battery to heat up more. So

530
00:39:54,560 --> 00:40:03,280
it causes the battery to heat up more which can in turn cause your battery to

531
00:39:59,119 --> 00:40:04,640
have a lower lifespan. So, I'm

532
00:40:03,280 --> 00:40:11,839
personally, well, and you can call it superstition, you can call it whatever you want. I'm personally in the uh

533
00:40:09,160 --> 00:40:17,760
charging every time for the batteries that I care about at 1 amp or less camp.

534
00:40:15,440 --> 00:40:24,280
I actually don't even use a 2 amp charger on my Droid Turbo unless I'm

535
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:28,079
desperate because I want this

536
00:40:24,280 --> 00:40:31,200
3900 milliamp battery to keep being

537
00:40:28,079 --> 00:40:35,680
capable of what a 3900 millia battery

538
00:40:31,200 --> 00:40:38,000
can be for a very very long time. But,

539
00:40:35,680 --> 00:40:41,839
um, you know, with that said, having the option to throw your device on the

540
00:40:39,920 --> 00:40:47,440
charger for 30 minutes and get, you know, enough battery to stay out

541
00:40:44,000 --> 00:40:49,520
basically all day is definitely nice.

542
00:40:47,440 --> 00:40:54,640
And I'm not going to say no to future improvements in quick charge

543
00:40:52,280 --> 00:41:00,240
technology. Oh, this was actually just added this was just added after the fact

544
00:40:57,520 --> 00:41:08,359
to the WAN Show document. So, uh, for everyone watching right now, we are

545
00:41:03,119 --> 00:41:10,640
doing a Samsung Galaxy S6 Edge Plus

546
00:41:08,359 --> 00:41:16,720
giveaway. So, let's go ahead and, uh, paste that link into the Twitch chat

547
00:41:13,599 --> 00:41:19,920
here. So, you guys definitely go and

548
00:41:16,720 --> 00:41:22,800
check that out. Uh, let me just go

549
00:41:19,920 --> 00:41:27,960
actually find out what exactly the uh, sorry, what exactly the the terms of

550
00:41:25,200 --> 00:41:31,680
this are. So, we have uh Nick is actually Oh, look at that. There's a

551
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:36,480
special Linus Media Group staff thing for uh for Linus Media Group staff. I

552
00:41:35,200 --> 00:41:39,920
didn't know that. I don't think I have one of those. Huh. It's pink. Love it.

553
00:41:38,480 --> 00:41:43,119
All right. So, we've partnered with Samsung to give you lucky people the

554
00:41:41,680 --> 00:41:49,800
opportunity to be the owner of a new Galaxy S6 Edge Plus as part of their

555
00:41:45,839 --> 00:41:52,000
your best foot forward

556
00:41:49,800 --> 00:41:56,800
campaign. Is it really fest foot forward? Okay. Uh, they brought

557
00:41:54,319 --> 00:42:00,960
Snapchatter Shawn Durus and Viner Ray Lea out to a few outdoor music festivals

558
00:41:59,200 --> 00:42:04,640
this summer and let them demonstrate how you can step your social media game up a

559
00:42:02,720 --> 00:42:08,880
few notches with the camera features on their new S6 Edge and Edge Plus

560
00:42:06,079 --> 00:42:13,200
smartphones. And it really is a great great camera you guys which you guys

561
00:42:11,119 --> 00:42:18,560
will know if you watched out my S6 Edge review. So, how do you enter? You watch

562
00:42:16,319 --> 00:42:24,800
this video which I'll go ahead and paste in the Twitch chat. Now, I think you

563
00:42:21,440 --> 00:42:26,240
have to like it as well. Not 100% sure

564
00:42:24,800 --> 00:42:31,200
how they're tracking that, but I think you're supposed to like it. Uh, yep. Hit

565
00:42:28,640 --> 00:42:35,040
the like button uh on the videos in the series over on Samsung's channel and

566
00:42:33,200 --> 00:42:39,760
comment below letting them know what your favorite feature highlighted in the

567
00:42:37,359 --> 00:42:44,960
series was. So, it's one comment per person and it is a

00:42:41,640 --> 00:42:47,200
worldwide giveaway. Good stuff. Way to

569
00:42:44,960 --> 00:42:52,640
go, Nick. I guess uh so the phone will probably be shipped out by us. So there

570
00:42:50,160 --> 00:42:56,319
you go, guys. Uh definitely go open that in another tab or whatever or go hit go

hit like and leave your comment now. It only takes a second and you'll be entered for a chance to win a Galaxy S6

572
00:43:00,079 --> 00:43:04,720
Edge Plus, which as far as I can tell

573
00:43:03,200 --> 00:43:09,680
now that I've had my hands on both of them, is basically a Note 5 with the

574
00:43:07,359 --> 00:43:15,599
curve on the glass instead of the curve on the back. Um so yeah, and so far,

575
00:43:13,520 --> 00:43:20,160
where is my Note 5? What the heck? Oh, well. Oh, there it

576
00:43:18,319 --> 00:43:25,920
is. It's under my butt. Um, so I've been working on my Note 5 review for a little

577
00:43:22,319 --> 00:43:29,119
while now. So far, wow. Really nice

578
00:43:25,920 --> 00:43:31,200
phone. This is the first phone. This is

579
00:43:29,119 --> 00:43:35,440
the first Note series phone that has really gotten my attention. There were

580
00:43:32,960 --> 00:43:40,800
things I liked about previous ones. Um, I'm sure Ed's going to correct me here,

581
00:43:37,920 --> 00:43:43,760
but I think it was a Note 2 was the last Note he had, and there were some really

582
00:43:42,240 --> 00:43:47,119
great things about that phone. I mean, the huge screen is obviously nice for

583
00:43:45,760 --> 00:43:52,720
content consumption. And let me tell you, with the bezels being so small on

584
00:43:49,920 --> 00:43:56,079
this puppy, it really is outstanding for content consumption. It had really loud

585
00:43:54,880 --> 00:44:00,400
speakers, which is something that's easier to do in a larger phone body just

586
00:43:58,640 --> 00:44:05,200
because you can fit bigger speakers in it. And um yeah, anyway, really like

587
00:44:03,760 --> 00:44:09,680
this phone so far. Stay tuned because my review will be coming at some point in

588
00:44:06,960 --> 00:44:15,839
the future. I actually don't have an ETA on that yet.

589
00:44:13,119 --> 00:44:21,440
All right. Uh, what have we got next? Oh, this is interesting. So, this was

590
00:44:17,839 --> 00:44:25,079
posted by Patrick 3027 on the forum. And

591
00:44:21,440 --> 00:44:30,079
the original article here is from the

592
00:44:25,079 --> 00:44:31,920
BBC. Computers do not improve pupil

593
00:44:30,079 --> 00:44:37,440
results, says the organization for economic cooperations and development.

594
00:44:35,200 --> 00:44:43,440
So, here's the forum post over there, and let's go ahead and pull this baby

595
00:44:39,319 --> 00:44:45,920
up. H so investing heavily in school

596
00:44:43,440 --> 00:44:50,440
computers and classroom technology does not improve pupils performance says a

597
00:44:48,560 --> 00:44:55,760
global study from the OECD. The think tank says frequent use

598
00:44:53,440 --> 00:45:03,880
of computers in schools is more likely to be associated with lower

599
00:44:59,480 --> 00:45:07,240
results. That is very interesting.

600
00:45:03,880 --> 00:45:09,920
Um so Tom Bennett

601
00:45:07,240 --> 00:45:15,760
um a government expert on pupil behavior said that teachers have been dazzled by

602
00:45:12,480 --> 00:45:17,920
school computers. So the the report from

603
00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:22,319
the OECD examines the impact of school technology on international test results

604
00:45:20,000 --> 00:45:27,920
such as the Pisa test taken in more than 70 countries and tests measuring digital

605
00:45:25,280 --> 00:45:31,680
skills. So, an average daily minutes for countries using the internet at school

606
00:45:29,520 --> 00:45:36,000
graph is available right here. Also on the

607
00:45:33,480 --> 00:45:42,240
BBC see if we can find it. Yep, here we go. So, your top five average daily

608
00:45:38,960 --> 00:45:44,640
minutes using internet at school. Okay.

609
00:45:42,240 --> 00:45:48,720
And then let me see. Number of students per school computer. Top five, bottom

610
00:45:47,280 --> 00:45:54,640
five, bunch of really good stuff. You guys should definitely check it out. Here's a link directly to the article.

611
00:45:52,160 --> 00:46:01,200
But I guess I would like to bring up a few things that it feels like we're

612
00:45:59,079 --> 00:46:04,960
overlooked a little bit here. Okay, so Singapore with only moderate use of

613
00:46:02,720 --> 00:46:08,640
technology in school is top for digital skills,

614
00:46:05,960 --> 00:46:13,760
but okay, we're we're I I went to Singapore quite recently and what I'll

615
00:46:10,480 --> 00:46:17,599
tell you about Singapore is that is one

616
00:46:13,760 --> 00:46:20,800
wealthy ass country. Okay, straight up.

617
00:46:17,599 --> 00:46:23,880
That is that is that is a like a a an

618
00:46:20,800 --> 00:46:27,520
elite of the elite

619
00:46:23,880 --> 00:46:31,280
haven. And I mean everything from how

620
00:46:27,520 --> 00:46:32,960
totally unaffordable cars are to, you

621
00:46:31,280 --> 00:46:38,200
know, if you don't want to live in the government funded housing to how totally

622
00:46:35,480 --> 00:46:44,160
unaffordable property is like Singapore. What I'm trying to say is

623
00:46:41,800 --> 00:46:47,119
that they're using their computers at home if they're not using them at school

624
00:46:45,599 --> 00:46:53,520
and developing digital skills that way. You don't get computer skills by not

625
00:46:50,400 --> 00:46:56,720
investing in computer technology in the

626
00:46:53,520 --> 00:46:58,560
education system. Like the fact that I

627
00:46:56,720 --> 00:47:03,760
know anything about computers. I was introduced to computers at school. Okay,

628
00:47:02,240 --> 00:47:09,200
you can't just not have it at all. And I'm not saying that everything should be

629
00:47:05,680 --> 00:47:10,560
on an iPad either. I genuinely don't

630
00:47:09,200 --> 00:47:15,680
think that that's the right approach. And I think there is a value to working

631
00:47:12,800 --> 00:47:19,760
with a pen or a pencil and a piece of paper. But, and I guess this is part of

632
00:47:18,160 --> 00:47:24,240
what the report is saying, you have to strike a happy medium. I guess just the

633
00:47:21,920 --> 00:47:28,960
part that I feel like was missed here is that it's not necessarily about, you

634
00:47:26,640 --> 00:47:34,800
know, internet use or computer use. It's about smart computer use. Like, you

635
00:47:32,240 --> 00:47:39,839
know, that uh that news that broke a little while ago about China investing

636
00:47:36,720 --> 00:47:42,160
heavily in 3D printers in their schools.

637
00:47:39,839 --> 00:47:47,280
That makes a ton of sense to me. You could tell me that my kid is going to

638
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:53,760
have an, you know, an hour block two times a week every week on, you know,

639
00:47:50,160 --> 00:47:56,720
uh, digital 3D modeling and 3D printing

640
00:47:53,760 --> 00:48:02,079
and design. And I would say, is that it like is that enough? because that is the

641
00:47:59,920 --> 00:48:06,480
future. Whereas, you know, if you're just kind of, you know, giving students

642
00:48:04,560 --> 00:48:12,720
access to computers and these kind of like hokey educational software programs

643
00:48:10,319 --> 00:48:17,839
that are like here is an onscreen, you know, keyboard,

644
00:48:15,160 --> 00:48:21,920
piano. Oh, you learned a thing. Yay. Where it's basically just a game and the

645
00:48:20,240 --> 00:48:26,319
the the skills that are being introduced are very very rudimentary. Um or you

646
00:48:24,400 --> 00:48:29,119
know like like when when and I don't know how much it's changed and I'm going

647
00:48:27,680 --> 00:48:32,880
to learn all these things now that my kids are finally getting to school age

648
00:48:30,800 --> 00:48:36,640
but like when we had computer lab time we were doing crap like playing Oregon

649
00:48:34,720 --> 00:48:39,640
Trail and you could make the argument you know oh well there's historical

650
00:48:38,079 --> 00:48:46,400
value there learning about the settlers or

651
00:48:42,400 --> 00:48:48,079
some crap or whatever but like come on

652
00:48:46,400 --> 00:48:53,760
it's not like we couldn't have covered everything that there is to know in that

653
00:48:50,960 --> 00:48:59,119
game in like a couple of a couple of lessons and then moved on to to

654
00:48:55,520 --> 00:49:01,680
something else. So, I don't know, man.

655
00:48:59,119 --> 00:49:06,040
There's uh education is changing cuz I mean, here's another thing that I'll

656
00:49:03,119 --> 00:49:14,079
kind of throw at you guys. Like, I actually limit um fairly strictly my

657
00:49:10,559 --> 00:49:15,920
son's access to screens. I don't think

658
00:49:14,079 --> 00:49:20,319
that a three-year-old needs to spend a ton of time playing video games,

659
00:49:17,520 --> 00:49:23,760
watching movies, um or otherwise sitting still. I think they need to be running

660
00:49:21,760 --> 00:49:28,800
around. I think they need to be building towers out of blocks. I think they need

661
00:49:25,440 --> 00:49:30,559
to be doing hands-on things because, and

662
00:49:28,800 --> 00:49:34,720
you know, you hear the opposite argument a lot. You know, well, how will they be

663
00:49:32,480 --> 00:49:39,839
prepared for the digital age and the devices and the blah blah blah? Come on,

664
00:49:36,960 --> 00:49:44,079
get real. That stuff is so intuitive and so fun that he's going to do that crap

665
00:49:42,319 --> 00:49:49,280
on his own without any encouragement from me whatsoever. The world we live in

666
00:49:46,559 --> 00:49:55,440
now is so connected digitally that he's not even ever going to think about, you

667
00:49:52,960 --> 00:50:02,480
know, physical media. You know, the concept of of a of a file in a folder on

668
00:49:59,119 --> 00:50:04,800
on a a drive or in the cloud somewhere

669
00:50:02,480 --> 00:50:07,720
is going to be completely second nature to him. I don't have to teach him that

670
00:50:06,319 --> 00:50:14,480
crap. Um, so anyway, with all of that said, in

671
00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:20,480
the limited amount of time that he has spent, you know, on YouTube or um

672
00:50:18,480 --> 00:50:27,400
actually most mostly YouTube, now that I think about it, the kid is three and can

673
00:50:24,480 --> 00:50:32,800
already read a fair amount. And I I I will say straight up,

674
00:50:31,520 --> 00:50:38,760
I'm going to I'm going to give these guys a shout out. I think it's called

675
00:50:34,880 --> 00:50:41,119
like Kids TV123 or some crap like that.

676
00:50:38,760 --> 00:50:45,880
Uh, let me see if I can find it. Yep, Kids

677
00:50:42,359 --> 00:50:48,400
TV123. This YouTube channel,

678
00:50:45,880 --> 00:50:54,760
man. As far as I can tell, they taught my kid basically everything he knows.

679
00:50:50,480 --> 00:50:58,079
And I can sing their phonics song off by

680
00:50:54,760 --> 00:51:00,599
heart. Pretty pretty darn good here. A

681
00:50:58,079 --> 00:51:07,280
is for apple. Aapp is for ball. BBB. And you know what

682
00:51:05,119 --> 00:51:12,640
I mean? My my kid is not only It's really funny. We um we did an

683
00:51:08,880 --> 00:51:15,040
orientation for his prechool a couple

684
00:51:12,640 --> 00:51:18,480
weeks ago and the the teacher was saying, you know, oh, I had a really

685
00:51:16,960 --> 00:51:22,079
advanced student once that knew the whole alphabet, but this is more of just

686
00:51:20,160 --> 00:51:25,280
like a play and get familiar with the concept of a classroom program. It's at

687
00:51:23,599 --> 00:51:29,200
the local community center. Anyway, I was like, sorry, you had a pupil who

688
00:51:27,119 --> 00:51:35,079
knows the alphabet. He's known the full alphabet and all the phonetic sounds of

689
00:51:31,200 --> 00:51:38,599
all the letters since he was two. Um, so

690
00:51:35,079 --> 00:51:41,200
yeah, thank you YouTube, I guess.

691
00:51:38,599 --> 00:51:45,280
So, I didn't really lay down a firm opinion on any of that, did I? I guess

692
00:51:43,200 --> 00:51:50,400
what I was trying to say is it's not clear-cut. and the conclusions that

693
00:51:47,440 --> 00:51:55,599
especially some readers of the BBC article and other articles about this um

694
00:51:53,440 --> 00:51:59,839
are drawing that like oh you know there's a negative correlation between

695
00:51:57,599 --> 00:52:03,680
computer time and results are not necessarily accurate because it's way

696
00:52:01,760 --> 00:52:08,960
more to do with how the computer time is being used and yeah how the computer

697
00:52:07,040 --> 00:52:14,079
time is being used like I really don't think that doing addition on an iPad

698
00:52:11,839 --> 00:52:20,319
brings anything to the table versus doing addition on a piece of paper and a

699
00:52:16,920 --> 00:52:21,920
pencil. Um, but you know, things like

700
00:52:20,319 --> 00:52:28,319
like a 3D modeling class or whatever else, like 3D 3D art, sign me and all my

701
00:52:26,000 --> 00:52:32,640
kids up and I I wouldn't mind, you know, having him come home and show me his

702
00:52:29,680 --> 00:52:32,640
homework, that kind of stuff,

703
00:52:33,000 --> 00:52:41,200
too. All right. Oh, cool. Oh, never mind. That's

704
00:52:39,680 --> 00:52:48,079
embargoed. I was about to tell you guys a thing, and I will not be doing that.

705
00:52:45,200 --> 00:52:52,480
Oh, fly just hit me in the head. Intel launches and this is uh this is

706
00:52:50,640 --> 00:52:57,520
definitely something that I'm happy to hear about. Let's go ahead and post this

707
00:52:54,880 --> 00:53:03,119
in Twitch chat. Man, I am loving my internet connection right now. We just

708
00:52:59,040 --> 00:53:05,760
upgraded to Gigabit up and down and I'm

709
00:53:03,119 --> 00:53:10,400
like super stoked on super stoked on my life right now. Uh automotive security

710
00:53:08,319 --> 00:53:15,119
review board to ensure the cyber security of cars. This is something we

711
00:53:13,200 --> 00:53:20,880
don't appreciate enough about Intel. Sometimes it's not all about how fast

712
00:53:18,559 --> 00:53:25,680
can you make the transistor switch and like, you know, how much cash can you

713
00:53:23,359 --> 00:53:31,040
stick on there. They're involved in a lot of bigger picture stuff that we all

714
00:53:28,240 --> 00:53:35,920
benefit from whether we buy Intel CPUs or not. So, the reports of hacked cars,

715
00:53:34,720 --> 00:53:42,119
in fact, we've talked about it on the WAN Show, have been pretty regular lately with about one in five vehicles

716
00:53:39,680 --> 00:53:48,000
on the road worldwide. um sort of projected to have some kind

717
00:53:44,880 --> 00:53:50,640
of wireless network connection by 2020.

718
00:53:48,000 --> 00:53:55,440
Meaning more than 250 million connected vehicles could potentially be affected

719
00:53:52,880 --> 00:53:59,920
by these issues that have been showing up in the news like really more often

720
00:53:58,240 --> 00:54:04,640
than we'd like in the last little bit. This is all according to Gartner. uh

721
00:54:02,160 --> 00:54:09,520
Intel so then announced the formation of the automotive security review board the

722
00:54:06,559 --> 00:54:14,160
ASRB which aims to lessen and address autocyber security risks. So their

723
00:54:12,000 --> 00:54:18,640
research ARM is tasked with performing continuous security tests and

724
00:54:15,760 --> 00:54:23,280
inspections and will pick from top security industry talent and Intel has

725
00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:28,400
also published the first white paper version of the automotive security best

726
00:54:26,000 --> 00:54:32,800
practices. They will provide incentives by awarding a new car to the researcher

727
00:54:31,359 --> 00:54:37,319
that makes the most significant contributions in advancing automobile

728
00:54:34,880 --> 00:54:42,079
cyber security. Well, dang, man. I wish I had

729
00:54:40,559 --> 00:54:48,000
that kind of capability. I could use a new car, as many of you probably know.

730
00:54:46,000 --> 00:54:51,760
On the subject of a new car for Linus, let's talk about the sponsors for

731
00:54:49,440 --> 00:54:57,359
today's show. That's actually pretty funny. Uh

732
00:54:54,720 --> 00:55:03,119
Squarespace. So, okay. Do you guys know what Squarespace is? Let's see. Twitch

733
00:55:00,680 --> 00:55:07,359
chat. Okay, whatever. There's a delay, so I'm sure they're all going to tell me

734
00:55:04,800 --> 00:55:11,200
they do. Uh, Squarespace is the place to go if you want to build yourself a

735
00:55:08,880 --> 00:55:15,440
beautiful looking website that is also extremely functional and not to mention

736
00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:20,160
easy to use. They've got state-of-the-art technology. It's all

737
00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:24,559
cloud-based. So, all of your website management is just as simple as signing

738
00:55:22,559 --> 00:55:28,960
into a portal with your credentials and then you can just kind of like add

739
00:55:26,640 --> 00:55:33,119
modules or remove them. You can edit text, change out pictures. Um, you can

740
00:55:31,520 --> 00:55:38,559
add items if you So, they've got a lot of different templates. So, if it's just a companyformational website like ours,

741
00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:43,119
you know, we can update our address when we move, we can add new employees, do

742
00:55:40,960 --> 00:55:46,000
simple stuff like that. or depending on what you're trying to build. If you have

743
00:55:44,319 --> 00:55:50,000
like a portfolio, you can add all your latest work really easily, keep it

744
00:55:48,079 --> 00:55:53,440
organized. If you're building a store, you can add new items, take away ones

745
00:55:51,920 --> 00:56:00,160
that are sold, all that kind of cool stuff. And it starts at only $8 a month

746
00:55:57,680 --> 00:56:05,119
with a free domain thrown in if you sign up for a year. Um, I yeah, I guess what

747
00:56:03,839 --> 00:56:12,000
is there to really say about it other than that? linusmedia.com to my knowledge has never

748
00:56:08,559 --> 00:56:13,920
gone down in the like two years that

749
00:56:12,000 --> 00:56:19,599
we've been working with Squarespace and had our site powered by them. So, highly

750
00:56:16,720 --> 00:56:22,720
recommended Squarespace. Uh you can and you don't have to commit right away with

751
00:56:21,119 --> 00:56:26,960
no credit card required. You can sign up for a free trial and start building your

752
00:56:24,880 --> 00:56:31,599
website. They have 24/7 tech support and you can find out if it works for you.

753
00:56:28,640 --> 00:56:36,720
So, use offer code Linus to save 10% on your first order.

754
00:56:34,559 --> 00:56:41,680
Sponsor number two, it's Tunnel Bear, the easytouse privacy app for mobile and

755
00:56:39,599 --> 00:56:47,119
desktop. So, it's available on iOS, Android, Mac, PC, Chrome. You can tunnel

756
00:56:45,280 --> 00:56:51,760
to 14 different countries, allowing you to browse the internet as if you were in

757
00:56:49,359 --> 00:56:57,480
that country. So, a lot of people use this for things like avoiding geo

758
00:56:54,359 --> 00:57:00,640
restrictions on certain content.

759
00:56:57,480 --> 00:57:02,000
Um it'sah. So basically you just pick

760
00:57:00,640 --> 00:57:06,240
your country within the app. You turn Tunnel Bear on and your internet

761
00:57:03,680 --> 00:57:10,720
connection gets fully encrypted. You don't have to be technical to use or

762
00:57:07,920 --> 00:57:15,680
install Tunnel Bear. In fact, their uh all their communication is very

763
00:57:13,520 --> 00:57:19,520
friendly, you know, very mainstream friendly. They have a plain English

764
00:57:17,440 --> 00:57:24,160
privacy policy which is really important when you're selecting a VPN because your

765
00:57:21,200 --> 00:57:29,200
data straight up goes through them like okay they are they are actually an

766
00:57:26,520 --> 00:57:33,760
intermediary between you and whatever else you're communicating with. They've

767
00:57:31,119 --> 00:57:38,480
got 5 million users and you can try it out for free. Tunnel Bear gives you 500

768
00:57:35,839 --> 00:57:42,319
megabytes of data for free every month and you get an extra Gigabyte if you

769
00:57:40,640 --> 00:57:47,880
tweet at them. So, if you need more data, prices for unlimited plans start

770
00:57:44,000 --> 00:57:50,799
at $6.99 per month. Download it

771
00:57:47,880 --> 00:57:55,280
today. This side, I think. There we go. Uh, blah blah blah blah.

772
00:57:53,720 --> 00:57:59,040
Tunnelbearer.com/LTT. I don't know if some of you have noticed, but we've

773
00:57:56,720 --> 00:58:04,040
actually started upgrading the set here on uh here on the WAN Show, which I

774
00:58:02,079 --> 00:58:09,359
think is pretty cool. Um Esther is actually here in the warehouse working

775
00:58:06,720 --> 00:58:12,480
on the Linus Tech Tip set, but we've got a number of other things including like

776
00:58:10,960 --> 00:58:16,000
an old sewing machine and all kinds of junk that we're planning to add to the

777
00:58:14,079 --> 00:58:19,440
back to make the W show uh to make the W show look better. So I had a few people

778
00:58:17,839 --> 00:58:22,880
say, "Hey, the new set looks great, except that like it's really plain

779
00:58:21,200 --> 00:58:26,559
looking." Don't worry, we're working on it. And speaking of working on

780
00:58:27,240 --> 00:58:32,720
it, if you find yourself working on things and you don't have the right

781
00:58:31,119 --> 00:58:38,880
tool, you might just want to get yourself one of these puppies. This is

782
00:58:36,000 --> 00:58:44,400
the repair business tool kit. It contains pretty much every iix it thing

783
00:58:41,599 --> 00:58:48,880
that we have ever shown off before. So, the magnetic mat with the uh correctable

784
00:58:46,799 --> 00:58:52,960
pen so you can label all the screws and junk that you're using as you put

785
00:58:50,960 --> 00:58:58,880
together or take apart a device. They've got the the ProTek tool kit, which I use

786
00:58:56,640 --> 00:59:03,280
I would say at least four days out of seven a week. Like seriously, I use this

787
00:59:01,119 --> 00:59:07,040
thing all the time, whether it's just like I need, you know, some ESD safe

788
00:59:05,119 --> 00:59:11,599
tweezers or an unusual screwdriver bit or whatever. They're whatever this one's

789
00:59:09,599 --> 00:59:15,280
called, something something tech tools tool kit. So, this is basically just a

790
00:59:13,680 --> 00:59:20,559
screwdriver set with a lot of the stuff that you're likely to find when you're

791
00:59:18,000 --> 00:59:24,480
uh disassembling or assembling uh electronics. Um, the difference between

792
00:59:22,799 --> 00:59:28,160
these ones and the ProTek tool kit is this is all the really tiny bits and

793
00:59:26,559 --> 00:59:32,240
these ones have nice rubber grips on them so you can really crank them. Uh,

794
00:59:30,720 --> 00:59:35,920
what is this? Yeah, this is just a box for another Protek to Tool Kit. Way to

795
00:59:33,760 --> 00:59:39,760
go, guys. Doesn't come with two ProTek tool kits. Bunch of other stuff in here.

796
00:59:38,079 --> 00:59:44,960
There's like a screen cleaner. There's like a little a little blower for

797
00:59:42,640 --> 00:59:50,640
cleaning dust out of junk. They got their suction cups for pulling screens

798
00:59:47,520 --> 00:59:53,359
off things. An ESD safe work mat. All

799
00:59:50,640 --> 00:59:58,400
kinds of great stuff in there. And uh basically you can use offer code WAN

800
00:59:56,040 --> 01:00:01,319
show. That's funny. I put it behind the screen. I was trying to point at Wan

801
00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:06,720
Show. I'm like my finger is disappearing. Where's it going? That was

802
01:00:04,160 --> 01:00:14,319
so funny. There we go. Uh so use offer code Wow and you can save $10 off a

803
01:00:09,520 --> 01:00:17,119
purchase of $50 or more. Um you can buy

804
01:00:14,319 --> 01:00:21,839
it for yourself or this is actually this is a suggestion from iFixit. you can go

805
01:00:19,599 --> 01:00:26,240
ahead and give it to someone as a gift. And that's actually an extremely good

806
01:00:23,599 --> 01:00:30,799
idea. So, it's September, so I know it's a little early for Christmas, but how

807
01:00:28,960 --> 01:00:34,960
thrilled would the geek in your family be? That is assuming that you're not the

808
01:00:33,200 --> 01:00:39,440
geek in your family, or you know, one of them at least. How thrilled would the

809
01:00:36,640 --> 01:00:45,040
geek in your family be if they got uh a toolkit like that for Christmas? Pretty

810
01:00:42,720 --> 01:00:49,839
cool stuff. Everyone's giving me crap about the Where's My Finger thing. Come

811
01:00:46,680 --> 01:00:51,680
on. I can't be an expert on everything,

812
01:00:49,839 --> 01:00:56,000
you know, and things being in front of other things. That's some complicated

813
01:00:53,200 --> 01:01:01,880
stuff right there. Uh, what else we got for Oh, this is great. So, the OP here

814
01:00:58,559 --> 01:01:05,160
is Prof over on the forum. Fan

815
01:01:01,880 --> 01:01:07,599
freakingtastic friends. Uh,

816
01:01:05,160 --> 01:01:12,040
so I actually, okay, I haven't looked too much into this one yet, but the

817
01:01:09,200 --> 01:01:18,559
original article here is from CBC. Robot ethicist calls for ban on sex

818
01:01:16,559 --> 01:01:25,839
robots. Now, we've talked about this on the show before. There are some pretty

819
01:01:23,160 --> 01:01:30,640
like I don't know what to say. I don't want to be offensive, but for me

820
01:01:28,240 --> 01:01:36,599
personally, so take it as, you know, my personal, you know, ignorant hate speech

821
01:01:33,119 --> 01:01:39,440
or whatever, some pretty

822
01:01:36,599 --> 01:01:45,599
creepy sex toys out there, like some pretty weird stuff where, you know, they

823
01:01:43,040 --> 01:01:51,200
want to use AI to make the interaction seem like the toy is enjoying it. And,

824
01:01:48,640 --> 01:01:55,119
you know, super realistic heads and super realistic bodies. And I'll tell

825
01:01:53,040 --> 01:01:58,960
you, when I was over in Japan just kind of walking around in stores, I found

826
01:01:57,359 --> 01:02:02,720
some stuff that I was just like, "Wow, really?" Um, so maybe I just live under

827
01:02:00,880 --> 01:02:08,319
a rock and this is all like totally totally normal stuff. But, uh, Dr. Dr.

828
01:02:05,839 --> 01:02:14,960
Richardson, Dr. Kathleen Richardson is a robot ethicist at Deontford University

829
01:02:10,799 --> 01:02:18,079
in Lychester and she believes that these

830
01:02:14,960 --> 01:02:21,040
robot sex dolls reinforce traditional

831
01:02:18,079 --> 01:02:24,920
stereotypes of women and view that it is a

832
01:02:22,119 --> 01:02:29,680
relationship that oh right so this this like sort of

833
01:02:27,280 --> 01:02:34,720
traditional stereotype of women and and a view that a relationship doesn't need

834
01:02:31,599 --> 01:02:36,480
to be anything more than physical. Um,

835
01:02:34,720 --> 01:02:41,520
so sex dolls on the market are becoming more sophisticated. Um, so company,

836
01:02:39,359 --> 01:02:46,240
there's a company called True Companion that boasts that it's developing the

837
01:02:43,119 --> 01:02:49,359
world's first sex robot and promises to

838
01:02:46,240 --> 01:02:52,079
launch its first doll, Roxy with 3X's,

839
01:02:49,359 --> 01:02:56,119
of course, later this year. There are apparently thousands of pre-orders at a

840
01:02:54,240 --> 01:03:02,079
retail price of $7,000. With the CEO of True Companion

841
01:02:59,520 --> 01:03:06,799
commenting, "We are not supplanting the wife or trying to replace a girlfriend.

842
01:03:04,880 --> 01:03:12,559
This is a solution for people who are between relationships or someone who has

843
01:03:09,520 --> 01:03:16,799
lost a spouse and wants the doll to be a

844
01:03:12,559 --> 01:03:16,799
self-learning engine for the

845
01:03:17,880 --> 01:03:23,359
user." Wow. I think we've actually run

846
01:03:20,960 --> 01:03:27,760
this straw poll before, but I don't remember the results. And I always love

847
01:03:25,119 --> 01:03:33,359
to hear from you guys. So, sex doll. And this is going to be a bit of a different

848
01:03:29,119 --> 01:03:35,039
phrasing of the question. So, is it And

849
01:03:33,359 --> 01:03:42,160
I want to be really careful with the use of this word because the word wrong

850
01:03:38,839 --> 01:03:43,520
has a lot of negative connotation, you

851
01:03:42,160 --> 01:03:50,039
know. Yeah. Let's not go with the word wrong. Let's go with sex

852
01:03:46,839 --> 01:03:54,640
dolls. agree or

853
01:03:50,039 --> 01:03:54,640
disagree. Okay, so I'm keeping it very

854
01:03:55,160 --> 01:04:00,319
general. So basically, do you think and

855
01:03:58,240 --> 01:04:04,319
and you can interpret this? I leave it open for interpretation a little bit. Do

856
01:04:01,760 --> 01:04:07,599
you think people should should buy them? Do you think people should make them? Do

857
01:04:06,240 --> 01:04:13,119
you think people should be allowed to buy them? Should be allowed to make

858
01:04:09,359 --> 01:04:15,599
them? like do you think do you agree or

859
01:04:13,119 --> 01:04:20,319
do you not agree? They they should or they should not at all. And I and I know

860
01:04:18,720 --> 01:04:24,240
that I hope most of you kind of get what I mean. So here we go. Let's have a look

861
01:04:22,480 --> 01:04:29,119
at the results for that straw poll in a little bit and I'll go ahead and move on

862
01:04:25,760 --> 01:04:29,119
to my next

863
01:04:29,640 --> 01:04:38,640
topic. This is this is so awesome. So the original poster here is Al

864
01:04:35,960 --> 01:04:43,520
Jolina. I straight up have no idea how to pronounce that. I'm going to go ahead

865
01:04:39,920 --> 01:04:43,520
and throw that link in

866
01:04:44,200 --> 01:04:52,119
there. I'm losing track of my links here. There we go. So, the original

867
01:04:49,520 --> 01:05:01,280
article here is from Phone Arena. The Sony Z5 Premium apparently only renders

868
01:04:56,319 --> 01:05:02,720
media in 4K and the rest in 1080p for a

869
01:05:01,280 --> 01:05:08,680
two-day battery. And I can tell you right now, I'm not getting two days out of that battery. And I'm sure a lot of

870
01:05:05,599 --> 01:05:11,440
people aren't. but you know maybe maybe

871
01:05:08,680 --> 01:05:17,599
someone does or whatever. So there was a lot of concern about the absolutely

872
01:05:14,640 --> 01:05:21,200
unbelievable like a lot of people I talked to didn't even believe the rumors

873
01:05:19,280 --> 01:05:29,119
that it was going to have a 4K display. So the astounding 800 plus pixel per

874
01:05:24,799 --> 01:05:31,359
inch density that is a huge first like

875
01:05:29,119 --> 01:05:36,720
way far and away from others. The Galaxy S6 for example has 577 pixels per inch.

876
01:05:35,200 --> 01:05:40,960
A lot of people are saying there's no way that's true because a it would be

877
01:05:39,280 --> 01:05:46,000
impossible to manufacture in any reasonable volume with reasonable yields

878
01:05:43,440 --> 01:05:51,839
so at a reasonable price and b because no one is asking for this. Nobody wants

879
01:05:48,640 --> 01:05:55,280
this. There's no benefit to the end user

880
01:05:51,839 --> 01:05:58,480
to having a high resolution display that

881
01:05:55,280 --> 01:06:01,200
just sucks more power not only itself

882
01:05:58,480 --> 01:06:06,880
but also from the components that are trying to drive it. Like if you're going

883
01:06:03,039 --> 01:06:09,559
to try and game on mobile in 4K, even

884
01:06:06,880 --> 01:06:13,119
though the graphics are not that detailed, you're going to you're just

885
01:06:11,359 --> 01:06:18,520
going to run out of frame buffer. Like you're just going to run out of memory.

886
01:06:14,640 --> 01:06:23,559
It's just not a good idea. So there you

887
01:06:18,520 --> 01:06:26,720
go. Um they showed 10 so they show 1080p

888
01:06:23,559 --> 01:06:28,799
resolution for for the for the like the

889
01:06:26,720 --> 01:06:33,200
actual so so what it'll show to an application is 1080p resolution. So

890
01:06:30,480 --> 01:06:41,839
it'll render at 1080p rather than the display's actual 2160x 3840 pixel

891
01:06:37,720 --> 01:06:44,240
count. So this does raise some concerns

892
01:06:41,839 --> 01:06:47,280
about whether the display will look good running at a non-native resolution,

893
01:06:45,839 --> 01:06:53,119
something that is definitely an advantage for any pixelbased display,

894
01:06:49,520 --> 01:06:57,119
whether it's LCD or uh OLED or whatever

895
01:06:53,119 --> 01:06:58,880
else the case may be. But um as long as

896
01:06:57,119 --> 01:07:02,599
they handle it correctly, I really don't think that's a huge issue. I guess for

897
01:07:01,200 --> 01:07:07,920
me, I'm just sort of scratching my head. So, as

898
01:07:05,359 --> 01:07:13,680
someone who already doesn't believe we need 1440p at 5 1/2 in, I'm I'm I'm

899
01:07:12,160 --> 01:07:19,280
really scratching my head as to why we're even bothered with this. So, it's

900
01:07:15,680 --> 01:07:22,240
got a 3430 mAh battery, which I call

901
01:07:19,280 --> 01:07:27,039
total BS on the 2A battery life with, by the way. and we're throwing a 4K display

902
01:07:24,880 --> 01:07:30,079
at it, which straight up, I mean, I've talked about Retina already on this

903
01:07:28,720 --> 01:07:35,039
show. Sort of the Retina display concept, which already we won't be able

904
01:07:32,400 --> 01:07:39,760
to tell, especially because where are you guys getting 4K like good quality 4K

905
01:07:37,760 --> 01:07:42,799
content on your phones? And like, I don't know. There there's a hund there's

906
01:07:41,039 --> 01:07:47,760
a hundred reasons I can think of why this is why this is totally stupid. But

907
01:07:45,680 --> 01:07:52,880
if you wanted to be a baller and have the first 4K phone display, then I guess

908
01:07:50,000 --> 01:07:57,119
you can pick up a Z5 Premium. And I'm I I haven't uh I haven't really managed to

909
01:07:55,760 --> 01:08:00,200
make a point here, but I guess there just isn't really one. Let's go back to

910
01:07:58,960 --> 01:08:08,240
the sex dolls. Here we go. Sex dolls. Agree or

911
01:08:04,359 --> 01:08:11,119
disagree? So, uh a significant 54% of

912
01:08:08,240 --> 01:08:19,040
you figure what the hey, bring it on. Sex dolls. um with 20% of you

913
01:08:15,719 --> 01:08:21,520
um maybe having concerns about whether

914
01:08:19,040 --> 01:08:27,120
people will bother to maintain traditional relationships if they have

915
01:08:23,520 --> 01:08:28,719
the option of just having a sex doll and

916
01:08:27,120 --> 01:08:33,040
fulfilling those particular needs. I mean, let's let's let's let's be honest

917
01:08:30,719 --> 01:08:36,480
with ourselves. you know, a fair amount of the effort that we put into, you

918
01:08:34,960 --> 01:08:44,080
know, combing our hair in the morning and not smelling bad is about trying to

919
01:08:40,880 --> 01:08:46,400
attract a mate. Um, so if we feel like

920
01:08:44,080 --> 01:08:51,679
we don't have to bother, then you know, are we Well, apparently only 20% of you

921
01:08:48,480 --> 01:08:54,799
care about that with 26% of you figuring

922
01:08:51,679 --> 01:08:56,359
turnip is the only response there with

923
01:08:54,799 --> 01:09:05,640
any merit. All right.

924
01:08:59,440 --> 01:09:08,400
Oh, this is just such a bummer for

925
01:09:05,640 --> 01:09:14,279
AMD. Here we go. I went ahead and posted that there. Uh, the original article

926
01:09:10,560 --> 01:09:20,080
here is from WCCF

927
01:09:14,279 --> 01:09:22,159
Tech. Jim Keller has left AMD. Oh, can

928
01:09:20,080 --> 01:09:28,319
you not, please? Thank you. Jim Keller has left AMD. So, uh, he was well known

929
01:09:25,120 --> 01:09:30,239
for having a a a heavy hand. Well, no,

930
01:09:28,319 --> 01:09:37,839
heavy hand has a particular meaning. So, having his hands directly on AMD's K7

931
01:09:33,839 --> 01:09:40,319
and K8 series microprocessors. So, that

932
01:09:37,839 --> 01:09:47,600
was really the heyday of AMD, you guys. Like, AMD rode K8. I mean, a lot of what

933
01:09:44,400 --> 01:09:50,799
they did with K8, um, you know, after

934
01:09:47,600 --> 01:09:53,040
Jim Keller left was just like adding

935
01:09:50,799 --> 01:09:57,040
glue to the design that was already there. like you know it's like oh well

936
01:09:55,280 --> 01:10:01,120
we've got like uh we got like one of these K8 cores why don't we like do two

937
01:09:59,120 --> 01:10:06,239
now because we have a you know smaller manufacturing process. Um so he actually

938
01:10:04,000 --> 01:10:13,679
left uh in 1998 and was involved in Apple's

939
01:10:09,760 --> 01:10:16,960
A4 and A5 SOC's after joining Apple in

940
01:10:13,679 --> 01:10:20,960
2008. So yeah he has worked on some

941
01:10:16,960 --> 01:10:24,840
pretty bigname stuff. So he came back to

942
01:10:20,960 --> 01:10:27,520
AMD in 2012 to work on their to work on

943
01:10:24,840 --> 01:10:34,080
basically digging them out of the hole that they were in for desktop CPU

944
01:10:30,320 --> 01:10:38,320
performance. So, um, code name Zen,

945
01:10:34,080 --> 01:10:42,560
AMD's upcoming x86 cores are targeting a

946
01:10:38,320 --> 01:10:45,440
40% improvement in per clock performance

947
01:10:42,560 --> 01:10:49,159
over AMD's previous generation processors, which, let's just face it,

948
01:10:48,080 --> 01:10:55,840
have absolutely stunk. Like AMD managed to

949
01:10:52,719 --> 01:10:57,520
take the uh, what was like the last like

950
01:10:55,840 --> 01:11:02,080
sort of compelling one? I guess you could say the 1100T was their last six

951
01:11:00,320 --> 01:11:08,480
core. They managed to introduce 8 core processors that legitimately had lower

952
01:11:05,520 --> 01:11:12,320
IPC than their previous six core and like it hasn't really gotten any better

953
01:11:10,159 --> 01:11:16,400
from there. I mean we keep getting you know better on board graphics which you

954
01:11:14,560 --> 01:11:21,040
know AMD was really banging that drum like yeah we got APUs we got APUs we got

955
01:11:18,719 --> 01:11:25,600
APUs and by the time anyone cares and by the time any applications leverage this

956
01:11:23,280 --> 01:11:29,360
Intel's going to have onboard graphics that are like as good or better. Oh

957
01:11:27,520 --> 01:11:35,280
crap. What are we going to do now? So, um, it looks like the plan, you know, in

958
01:11:32,239 --> 01:11:38,159
2012 was to bring back the CPU on the

959
01:11:35,280 --> 01:11:43,600
AMD side and and and hit it hard. And so, he's been there for a few years now

960
01:11:40,080 --> 01:11:46,560
working on that. And, uh, now he's gone.

961
01:11:43,600 --> 01:11:51,920
Now, with that said, something a lot of people don't really understand is that a

962
01:11:49,520 --> 01:11:58,159
CPU or a graphics processor, you know, any of these types of products is being

963
01:11:54,320 --> 01:12:00,800
worked on literally for years. So, if

964
01:11:58,159 --> 01:12:06,560
Zen is going to launch in 2016, I think Q4 is the current rumor. If Zen is going

965
01:12:03,360 --> 01:12:08,920
to launch in quarter 4 of 2016,

966
01:12:06,560 --> 01:12:14,679
um, and he's been working on it since 2012, probably so much of the groundwork

967
01:12:12,320 --> 01:12:20,960
has been laid at this point that him leaving could have little to no impact

968
01:12:17,440 --> 01:12:22,320
on Zen. So, I've seen a lot of people,

969
01:12:20,960 --> 01:12:28,480
you know, knee-jerk reactions to this going, "Oh, no, AMD is doomed. They're not going to have Zen. They're not going

970
01:12:25,120 --> 01:12:32,800
to have a processor. Um, that's that's

971
01:12:28,480 --> 01:12:34,560
totally not not going to be the case. I

972
01:12:32,800 --> 01:12:38,800
I hope I mean I can't say Zen's not doomed, but what I'll say is that Jim

973
01:12:36,560 --> 01:12:43,320
Keller leaving now is probably not going to be the reason for Zen to be doomed if

974
01:12:40,880 --> 01:12:47,800
it does end up being doomed. Um, however, we look at what happened

975
01:12:46,880 --> 01:12:52,719
last time he worked on a project over there

976
01:12:50,560 --> 01:12:58,239
and then we left and then it was like kind of super bad after that. Um, I'm

977
01:12:55,840 --> 01:13:02,640
not saying that won't happen again, but I mean, it's not like he also hasn't

978
01:12:59,760 --> 01:13:06,560
been there working with his team for a few years, you know, hopefully training

979
01:13:04,560 --> 01:13:11,040
people. I'm not saying obviously that he's the only person who worked on Zen.

980
01:13:08,800 --> 01:13:16,159
We've got an extraordinarily skilled team of engineers over at AMD. So, you

981
01:13:13,520 --> 01:13:21,600
know, it's not it is not a one-man job designing a CPU. So, there you go. Read

982
01:13:19,440 --> 01:13:28,280
into it however much or however little you want, but he's gone. And uh that's a

983
01:13:25,679 --> 01:13:35,560
bummer. Speaking of things that are a bummer, this is like, do you not charge

984
01:13:33,440 --> 01:13:40,000
us enough already? You know, our original article

985
01:13:38,320 --> 01:13:46,560
here is from RS Technica. Let's go ahead and pull this up. Are you not already

986
01:13:43,040 --> 01:13:49,760
sucking us dry? Empty Epson ink

987
01:13:46,560 --> 01:13:51,320
cartridges have been discovered to be

988
01:13:49,760 --> 01:13:54,960
still 20% full.

989
01:13:55,640 --> 01:14:04,159
20%. So high-end. And this is this is not like your cheapo consumer like we

990
01:14:01,199 --> 01:14:10,880
need to bill you for for a couple more dollars, you know, nonsense here. This

991
01:14:06,640 --> 01:14:13,040
is like this is like high-end printers

992
01:14:10,880 --> 01:14:19,520
where they're basically just scamming the customer out of 15th of what they

993
01:14:16,080 --> 01:14:21,520
paid an awful lot of money to have. So,

994
01:14:19,520 --> 01:14:27,040
this uh so a printing company cut open some cartridges to see how empty they

995
01:14:24,880 --> 01:14:32,520
really were. So, this is a high-end printer that retails for about

996
01:14:29,080 --> 01:14:35,840
$3,000 or about

997
01:14:32,520 --> 01:14:37,600
$5,000. And basically, their comments to

998
01:14:35,840 --> 01:14:41,520
Epson, which they have made multiple times asking about this, like, hey,

999
01:14:39,840 --> 01:14:47,120
what's the deal? These are like 15 to 20% full still, um have just gone

1000
01:14:44,880 --> 01:14:53,600
unanswered. So, they still have 60 to 80 mills of ink. When you consider that

1001
01:14:49,600 --> 01:14:56,560
inkjet printer ink is as expensive or

1002
01:14:53,600 --> 01:15:03,120
more than high-end perfume, you better have a freaking good excuse for wasting

1003
01:15:00,080 --> 01:15:06,640
60 to 80 ms of this stuff. And on top of

1004
01:15:03,120 --> 01:15:09,760
that, this is this is hilarious. Um, so

1005
01:15:06,640 --> 01:15:13,040
this printer has something along the

1006
01:15:09,760 --> 01:15:16,560
Yeah, there you go. The Stylus Pro 9900

1007
01:15:13,040 --> 01:15:20,000
has 11 cartridges. So, if you're

1008
01:15:16,560 --> 01:15:21,760
throwing away $50 of ink per cartridge,

1009
01:15:20,000 --> 01:15:24,320
changing out your 11 cartridges, we're talking

1010
01:15:24,440 --> 01:15:30,760
$550. That is so

1011
01:15:28,280 --> 01:15:35,600
rubbish. Like, holy crap. So, uh they're hoping that their

1012
01:15:33,920 --> 01:15:40,960
YouTube video will get them more exposure so that Epson will actually

1013
01:15:38,159 --> 01:15:43,120
have to answer for what they're doing. And I'm going to go ahead. I'm going to

1014
01:15:42,080 --> 01:15:47,199
link that here. You guys should definitely check that out. do share it

1015
01:15:45,520 --> 01:15:50,960
because the more pressure that we can put not just on Epson, the more pressure

1016
01:15:49,440 --> 01:15:55,679
that we can put on ink cartridge companies to accurately report the ink

1017
01:15:53,040 --> 01:15:59,679
in them, the better. And it's not just about reporting. Like, it's one thing to

1018
01:15:58,000 --> 01:16:04,080
have electronic reporting for how much ink is left. That's great. I love that.

1019
01:16:02,400 --> 01:16:08,080
And I even understand if they're going to buffer the reporting and it's going

1020
01:16:05,679 --> 01:16:12,400
to go down to zero when there's actually, you know, 15 to 20% left

1021
01:16:10,239 --> 01:16:17,760
because you can't account for, you know, cleaning cycles or or or whatever. Okay?

1022
01:16:14,880 --> 01:16:20,719
So, there's there's stuff that you might not be able to account for. You're not

1023
01:16:19,120 --> 01:16:25,400
going to get every last drop out of anything. It might cling to the side.

1024
01:16:22,320 --> 01:16:28,800
So, fine. Fine. I understand that.

1025
01:16:25,400 --> 01:16:31,840
But what I don't understand is that you

1026
01:16:28,800 --> 01:16:34,000
don't keep printing until you're done.

1027
01:16:31,840 --> 01:16:40,239
It's like it's like if your car has a fuel gauge that goes to E, you know,

1028
01:16:37,280 --> 01:16:44,880
when it's, you know, pretty empty, which a lot of them do. In fact, consumers

1029
01:16:42,320 --> 01:16:50,199
have said that they prefer that that and and you watch your car. Okay. So, it

1030
01:16:47,120 --> 01:16:55,280
stays on full for a bit and then it kind

1031
01:16:50,199 --> 01:16:57,520
of, you know, blitzes its way for a bit

1032
01:16:55,280 --> 01:17:03,520
and then it kind of hangs around half and then it goes down faster to kind of

1033
01:17:01,679 --> 01:17:07,600
the bottom and then it like hangs out there for a bit and the needle on some

1034
01:17:05,520 --> 01:17:12,159
cars will actually go past the E. Like, it's hilarious. Um, but that doesn't

1035
01:17:10,400 --> 01:17:17,360
mean you stop driving when it hits the E if there's still gas in the tank. Come

1036
01:17:14,159 --> 01:17:18,719
on, man. If I want to like ride my ink

1037
01:17:17,360 --> 01:17:24,239
cartridges to the end, then I should have the right to do

1038
01:17:21,239 --> 01:17:27,040
that. All right, what else we got here?

1039
01:17:24,239 --> 01:17:34,320
Wow, this show has flown by. It's after 6 already. Holy cow. Um, this is cool.

1040
01:17:32,159 --> 01:17:38,679
So, this was posted by Alex goes high on the forum. Let's go ahead and copy that

1041
01:17:36,719 --> 01:17:44,000
link there. Boop. And the original article here is

1042
01:17:41,120 --> 01:17:49,000
from The Verge. Here's our best look yet at BlackBerry's upcoming Android slider.

1043
01:17:47,679 --> 01:17:55,199
This is a phone that could get my attention

1044
01:17:52,080 --> 01:17:58,560
because as much as this marks me as a

1045
01:17:55,199 --> 01:18:02,480
bit of an old guy, I am from the

1046
01:17:58,560 --> 01:18:05,679
physical phone keyboard era. Okay? And I

1047
01:18:02,480 --> 01:18:07,360
still touch type better on a physical

1048
01:18:05,679 --> 01:18:10,640
phone than I do on a touchcreen. I've seen people who can touch type on a

1049
01:18:08,880 --> 01:18:16,080
touchcreen faster than I ever was on a physical phone. And kudos to them. I'm

1050
01:18:13,199 --> 01:18:18,960
not one of them. Maybe partly uh due to the fact that I'm switching phones all

1051
01:18:17,600 --> 01:18:24,000
the time, so the spacing is always changing around on me. But I'm not going to make excuses. I'm better touch typing

1052
01:18:22,400 --> 01:18:29,679
on a physical keyboard than I am on a not physical keyboard. And that looks

1053
01:18:26,880 --> 01:18:33,840
absolutely fantabulous, doesn't it? If you're into the Blackberry Blackberry

1054
01:18:31,520 --> 01:18:37,840
keyboard, see, it's not actually inordinately thick. You might be into

1055
01:18:36,400 --> 01:18:44,480
this particular device. And this hands-on from the Verge is looking pretty good. If other things about it

1056
01:18:40,800 --> 01:18:47,120
are good, this could be this could be a

1057
01:18:44,480 --> 01:18:51,040
winner. So, other specs, it has a 5.4 in quad HD display, a Snapdragon 808

1058
01:18:48,960 --> 01:18:55,840
processor, 3 gigs of RAM, and an 18 megapixel rear camera. To be clear, the

1059
01:18:52,800 --> 01:18:57,719
18 megapixels means nothing. So, let's

1060
01:18:55,840 --> 01:19:01,640
wait until we see some test images from it. Uh, what else we got for rapid fire

1061
01:19:00,480 --> 01:19:06,239
topics today? Uh, Google accidentally launched

1062
01:19:04,400 --> 01:19:11,719
climate change. Uh, this was originally posted by Jaws on the forum. Now, to be

1063
01:19:09,280 --> 01:19:15,520
clear, they didn't change the climate, which is what the headline

1064
01:19:13,920 --> 01:19:19,159
there actually kind of sounds like. And the original article here is from

1065
01:19:17,199 --> 01:19:24,640
Android Headlines. It's great. Our internet is

1066
01:19:21,600 --> 01:19:26,360
so fast now that I always know that it's

1067
01:19:24,640 --> 01:19:32,400
someone else's site that's slow. Awesome. Um, so it's Google Maps

1068
01:19:30,159 --> 01:19:38,480
is testing a climate change feature. And what it basically did, Can I help you?

1069
01:19:34,880 --> 01:19:39,920
Just want to say hi. Oh, okay. Hi. Hi.

1070
01:19:38,480 --> 01:19:46,080
It's not after party. It's still the show. Okay. Well, it's after six.

1071
01:19:43,920 --> 01:19:52,000
Uh, so last Friday, a worst case scenario report was released to the news

1072
01:19:48,320 --> 01:19:54,719
media about the effects of sea levels if

1073
01:19:52,000 --> 01:19:57,840
we burn all of our fossil fuels. On the same day, Google turned on a new feature

1074
01:19:56,480 --> 01:20:04,320
in Google Maps that showed the California coastline underwater with

1075
01:20:00,640 --> 01:20:06,320
just a 2in Ryzen sea levels. So this

1076
01:20:04,320 --> 01:20:11,040
was their attempt to raise awareness about the effects of fossil fuels. The

1077
01:20:09,199 --> 01:20:16,080
Los Angeles area was the only part of the country where this feature was

1078
01:20:13,040 --> 01:20:17,679
turned on and uh Google states that it

1079
01:20:16,080 --> 01:20:21,679
was a coincidence to time it with the worst case scenario report and also

1080
01:20:19,760 --> 01:20:25,880
blames their many map partners for the issue. It's been back to normal since

1081
01:20:23,760 --> 01:20:31,920
last Friday. Um I guess that's pretty much

1082
01:20:28,960 --> 01:20:36,480
it. I I want to thank all of you guys for tuning in to the WAN Show and I will

1083
01:20:34,320 --> 01:20:41,960
see you again next week. Same bat time, same bat channel. This time with no

1084
01:20:39,679 --> 01:20:46,320
technical difficulties. Okay, come on. It was

1085
01:20:43,920 --> 01:20:50,640
pretty minor this week, you guys. Was just a black screen for like a minute.

1086
01:20:48,640 --> 01:20:56,960
It's not that bad, right? I mean, also I guess the intro, which I'm rolling now,

1087
01:20:53,440 --> 01:20:59,679
which I'm trying to roll now, which

1088
01:20:56,960 --> 01:21:06,480
okay, didn't didn't restart on time. Okay, so dang it. Don't remember

1089
01:21:03,360 --> 01:21:08,840
playback position. And then when

1090
01:21:06,480 --> 01:21:14,159
finished, do nothing. And I think we're done here.

1091
01:21:12,400 --> 01:21:17,159
Thanks for watching, guys. See you next week.

1092
01:21:18,199 --> 01:21:24,320
Um, there's the train. Yeah. The one

1093
01:21:22,239 --> 01:21:30,159
drawback of the new studio compared to the old one, the train that goes by

1094
01:21:27,840 --> 01:21:33,880
periodically, like all the time.

1095
01:21:35,120 --> 01:21:42,640
Actually, it's not that bad. Yeah. Yeah.

1096
01:21:38,400 --> 01:21:42,640
A couple times a day. All right.
