00:00:02,560 --> 00:00:09,280
You are now live streaming to Twitch. Linus Tech. Linus Tech. Click here to

2
00:00:07,600 --> 00:00:12,639
open a browser to view the stream. Remember to mute the stream. I love they

3
00:00:11,040 --> 00:00:18,560
have they put that warning in just for me, didn't they? That remember is pretty solid. Yeah, I like it. This is Is this

4
00:00:16,080 --> 00:00:23,279
new? This is new, isn't it? Um, that is a thing that I believe I put on last

5
00:00:21,439 --> 00:00:30,000
week when you weren't here last week. Where was I? Oh, yeah. You were um You

6
00:00:25,519 --> 00:00:31,679
were You were inerson VR game watching.

7
00:00:30,000 --> 00:00:36,640
Were you? Yes, that's what you were doing. Yeah. Which actually ended up not

8
00:00:34,239 --> 00:00:42,719
being what I thought it was because you don't watch from the crowd. No. So, it

9
00:00:39,600 --> 00:00:44,879
it was the same, right? Anyways, we have

10
00:00:42,719 --> 00:00:49,920
lots of awesome topics this week. No, we don't. Um, we have like jack all. This

11
00:00:48,559 --> 00:00:56,960
is probably going to be the best show we've ever had. Uh, in SpaceX news, uh,

12
00:00:53,520 --> 00:00:59,359
Elon Musk wins a $112 million NASA

13
00:00:56,960 --> 00:01:05,600
contract. Is this just all like is that all there is? SpaceX, Mars, Lander,

14
00:01:02,640 --> 00:01:11,040
Tesla. So, it's all space and Elon Musk. Uh, welcome to the the Luke show. Uh,

15
00:01:08,240 --> 00:01:15,200
really? Valve Game Awards. Things Luke is a fan of. This qualifies as news this

16
00:01:13,280 --> 00:01:22,080
week. Uh, Samsung adding new obtrusive ads to

17
00:01:18,479 --> 00:01:25,119
your old smart TV in more reasons to not

18
00:01:22,080 --> 00:01:27,600
buy a smart TV. You can't buy a smart

19
00:01:25,119 --> 00:01:31,439
TV. New dumb TV. Is it not possible? No. I've been looking into it. Every TV is a

20
00:01:29,439 --> 00:01:37,680
smart TV. Can you dumb out your smart TV? You can unplug it from the internet,

21
00:01:34,640 --> 00:01:39,920
but then you can't Netflix and chill.

22
00:01:37,680 --> 00:01:45,840
But you could chcast that. You could chcast that. So, you would have to pay

23
00:01:43,520 --> 00:01:50,720
for additional hardware. Black Friday deals. I think it's like 29 bucks on B&H

24
00:01:48,720 --> 00:01:54,240
for a chcast. New chcast. Yeah, new chcast. It's actually a pretty solid

25
00:01:52,240 --> 00:01:59,759
price. Okay. Well, I'm not even going to try for standout deals or standout

26
00:01:57,280 --> 00:02:07,759
deals. Xbox One streaming comes to Oculus Rift on December 12th. Who cares?

27
00:02:02,960 --> 00:02:10,259
Uh, not me. Uh, uh Oh, wow. All right.

28
00:02:07,759 --> 00:02:14,560
Intro.

29
00:02:14,560 --> 00:02:22,640
This is going to be our worst show ever, which is like a pretty high bar. So,

30
00:02:19,920 --> 00:02:27,160
there's that. We could just talk about what we did

31
00:02:24,000 --> 00:02:27,160
this week.

32
00:02:27,440 --> 00:02:37,599
I don't even know if this game. I mean, maybe it's

33
00:02:37,599 --> 00:02:45,360
Yeah, I know they're here. People are watching. Oh, hold on. Hold on. I got to do the thing. Hey, the couch move thing

34
00:02:43,120 --> 00:02:50,879
is back. Why? This isn't that complicated. Is it

35
00:02:48,160 --> 00:02:56,239
Colton's fault this time? I don't think so. It's not Colton's fault. Well, we'll

36
00:02:52,879 --> 00:02:58,800
blame Colton. Just edit the same file.

37
00:02:56,239 --> 00:03:05,040
Just move again. Well, that one didn't. No, I fix it and chef steps are the

38
00:03:01,519 --> 00:03:08,319
same. Terrible. Terrible. WAN Show. Two

39
00:03:05,040 --> 00:03:10,400
out of 10. Two out of 10. Half an hour

40
00:03:08,319 --> 00:03:15,040
late with no explanation whatsoever. Yeah. And they can't even get the intro

41
00:03:12,640 --> 00:03:18,800
graphics in the right spot. At least the laptop's pink. Look, if this was

42
00:03:16,720 --> 00:03:23,040
pre-recorded, Auggman plays. Why wouldn't it be on

43
00:03:21,120 --> 00:03:26,959
time? Why wouldn't it be? Why is the camera not set up proper? Look at this.

44
00:03:24,480 --> 00:03:30,319
I think we Well, no, you you usually slouch. I think that's on purpose. I

45
00:03:28,720 --> 00:03:33,200
think that's by design, but like to be proper, I would have to slouch this. I

46
00:03:31,760 --> 00:03:37,360
don't know if I slouch that much. But if it was No, you sit back. See? Well, you

47
00:03:36,159 --> 00:03:41,440
don't sit back that much. Okay. You know what? I I I think it tilted down.

48
00:03:39,519 --> 00:03:45,840
Anyway, the point is, if it was pre-recorded, wouldn't we have cut out

49
00:03:43,120 --> 00:03:53,040
the mistakes? No, we probably wouldn't.

50
00:03:49,920 --> 00:03:55,440
Okay. But in my defense, it's usually me

51
00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:59,280
editing this crap after the fact. Yeah. I don't know how video editing works.

52
00:03:57,360 --> 00:04:04,640
No, you're just adding to the idea that it's pre-recorded and it's complicated.

53
00:04:01,760 --> 00:04:08,319
Yeah. And it's No, really. Like, okay, it used to be very complicated back when

54
00:04:06,720 --> 00:04:11,680
Xsplit didn't have an option to force constant frame rate. So, that was a

55
00:04:10,080 --> 00:04:14,879
problem. So, to the conspiracy theorists out there being like, "Oh, so everything

56
00:04:13,200 --> 00:04:20,560
is pre-recorded and then Lionus edits it." Uh, no. If we edit the show, it's

57
00:04:18,160 --> 00:04:25,680
because like something screwed up, like we we uh the stream got disconnected or

58
00:04:23,919 --> 00:04:28,720
like a capture card stopped working or whatever the case may or there was like

59
00:04:27,040 --> 00:04:31,759
personal information leaked or like something that was an actual problem.

60
00:04:30,080 --> 00:04:35,520
So, the problem is that a lot of the time, um, I don't know how much you guys

61
00:04:33,360 --> 00:04:40,400
know about video recording, but if you don't gracefully terminate a video

62
00:04:37,520 --> 00:04:43,919
recording, it can be like pretty screwed up and it can actually be very very

63
00:04:42,479 --> 00:04:51,759
hard. You sometimes have to run it through like I've used everything from ffmpeg to Handbreak to Vegas to Premiere

64
00:04:49,919 --> 00:04:57,040
to uh, what else have I used? I've even used like weird tools like whoever media

65
00:04:54,720 --> 00:05:00,560
converter, whatever. Like sometimes I'll just have to run it through like

66
00:04:58,400 --> 00:05:03,440
multiple different transcoders and then one of them will figure it out. One of

67
00:05:01,919 --> 00:05:06,320
them will figure it out and then I'll be able to get it onto a timeline and

68
00:05:05,040 --> 00:05:12,240
stitch it together with the other stuff. Like when WAN Show needs to be edited

69
00:05:08,960 --> 00:05:16,479
it's usually an enormous problem. Yeah.

70
00:05:12,240 --> 00:05:18,960
So uh so wow we have like speaking of

71
00:05:16,479 --> 00:05:24,080
enormous problems nothing today we don't have anything to talk about except

72
00:05:21,759 --> 00:05:28,160
Black Friday deals and Floatplane Black Friday deals. I mean, are there even

73
00:05:26,240 --> 00:05:33,360
whatever? Okay, so the Verge has Black Friday deals. Oh, I didn't 20 best

74
00:05:31,039 --> 00:05:38,000
deals. That's 20 best deals. That's a good way to go. Is that a book? Atlas

75
00:05:35,840 --> 00:05:43,520
Obscura. Yeah. Okay. There's two books there and Field Notes. Field Notes.

76
00:05:40,800 --> 00:05:49,600
Space stuff. You're a dork. I love Field Notes. The

77
00:05:46,720 --> 00:05:55,199
Vive is $100 off. Okay. If you were going to buy a Vive, then $100, I guess,

78
00:05:52,720 --> 00:06:02,000
is not a trivial discount in the grand scheme of the thousand plus dollar PC

79
00:05:57,840 --> 00:06:03,440
and now $700 thing. You do get a

80
00:06:02,000 --> 00:06:08,400
Microsoft Store gift card. I'm sure someone has bought something from the Microsoft Store at some point. Hopefully

81
00:06:06,880 --> 00:06:15,360
not a game because that seems to be going terribly. PS4 Slim, uh, 250 bucks.

82
00:06:12,479 --> 00:06:19,680
Okay. Uh, Xbox One controllers for 40 bucks. Okay. So, if you're if you're a

83
00:06:17,520 --> 00:06:22,960
PC gamer and you want to play uh games on your PC with an Xbox One controller

84
00:06:21,440 --> 00:06:27,360
or PlayStation 4 controller for that matter, I'm surprised they don't have the Steam thing on here. I've heard that

85
00:06:25,840 --> 00:06:32,639
you can get a Steam controller and a Steam Link together for 50 bucks, which

86
00:06:30,319 --> 00:06:38,000
is like pretty solid if you want a Steam controller. And a Steam Link. And a

87
00:06:35,120 --> 00:06:43,520
Steam Link. Maybe that's why it's not on here.

88
00:06:40,400 --> 00:06:45,280
Oh. Oh, damn. Rough. Oh, damn. Although

89
00:06:43,520 --> 00:06:49,520
Sil 6 is out, so you have one game that makes sense to play with it. There's a

90
00:06:46,800 --> 00:06:53,600
Pixel deal where you have to pay the entire cost of the phone up front, but

91
00:06:51,919 --> 00:06:58,400
then the difference gets deducted from your wireless bill monthto monthth. So

92
00:06:56,000 --> 00:07:04,319
it's like they subsidize Hold on a second. You you get it's a

93
00:07:01,919 --> 00:07:08,800
like is this a reverse subsidy? I don't really I don't really understand.

94
00:07:07,039 --> 00:07:14,160
Um it's pretty weird. The Apple Watch Series 1 is $200 and it's still totally

95
00:07:11,919 --> 00:07:18,319
not worth that. I'm I'm back to using it. Okay. Actually, that's something I

96
00:07:16,000 --> 00:07:22,319
can talk about a little bit here. I'm back to using the Apple Watch. Yeah.

97
00:07:19,599 --> 00:07:27,280
Why? Okay. So, something I've been trying to figure out an angle for my

98
00:07:24,800 --> 00:07:30,639
MacBook Pro review because there's there's a couple. Are you doing like

99
00:07:28,400 --> 00:07:36,560
Apple ecosystem? There's some problems with me reviewing the Mac Pro. Problem

100
00:07:32,800 --> 00:07:38,160
number one, I am not a Mac user at all.

101
00:07:36,560 --> 00:07:42,960
Actually, that's the biggest problem. I am not a Mac user. I am not really an

102
00:07:40,639 --> 00:07:47,280
Apple. Number one for a reason. Yeah. Yeah, that's Yeah, that's that's number

103
00:07:45,680 --> 00:07:53,759
one. And when when you're number one, you don't need number two. Um,

104
00:07:50,960 --> 00:07:58,639
so I'm pretty rusty. I actually did use a Mac for like six weeks back when I did

105
00:07:56,000 --> 00:08:04,560
my iMac videos, uh, when they released the 5K iMac, but that was a really long

106
00:08:01,440 --> 00:08:06,720
time ago. And quite frankly, some of the

107
00:08:04,560 --> 00:08:12,240
stuff that continues to make me really mad, I had completely forgotten about.

108
00:08:09,199 --> 00:08:14,400
So today I was like literally screaming

109
00:08:12,240 --> 00:08:19,680
over in the corner of the warehouse because there is no way at least okay I

110
00:08:18,160 --> 00:08:25,919
actually didn't Google it again but I did research it last time. There is no

111
00:08:22,479 --> 00:08:28,240
way to force refresh Finder. So, you

112
00:08:25,919 --> 00:08:31,280
know how in Explorer it can kind of bug out sometimes and you'll go and add a

113
00:08:29,680 --> 00:08:34,719
new folder and it's just like not there or the rename doesn't take um and then

114
00:08:33,599 --> 00:08:39,599
when you go to click on it it's like this folder doesn't exist even though you're looking at it because it's been

115
00:08:37,200 --> 00:08:42,080
renamed in the background somewhere but you just got to refresh it and it'll

116
00:08:40,800 --> 00:08:48,480
show up properly. Okay, you know how that can happen sometimes. Okay, so in Finder if something changes within a

117
00:08:45,920 --> 00:08:52,959
folder and Finder doesn't realize it, you just wait.

118
00:08:50,720 --> 00:08:57,279
You just wait until it finds it because it's Finder. It's working on it

119
00:08:55,519 --> 00:09:01,120
actively. It's working on it. Um, you don't have to worry about it. It'll do

120
00:08:59,120 --> 00:09:04,800
it for you. So, there there there are some things that are driving me crazy.

121
00:09:02,640 --> 00:09:09,920
Anyway, so the point is Sorry. CNET's Black Friday buyer guide is the worst

122
00:09:06,959 --> 00:09:13,519
thing. It's just you just have to like go Yeah, check this out for Sorry to

123
00:09:11,839 --> 00:09:17,760
like I was trying to research for the next topic. You derailed me so hard

124
00:09:15,360 --> 00:09:21,519
there. This is the worst. Like, okay, first off, there's that thing in the way

125
00:09:19,839 --> 00:09:27,120
and then you can't like all the information is in the right hand side.

126
00:09:24,800 --> 00:09:31,360
Uh oh. What's going on? Hold on. So, you got to scroll here. Yeah. So, there's

127
00:09:29,760 --> 00:09:35,600
like a little mini scroll wheel and then there's just random picture and then you

128
00:09:33,040 --> 00:09:40,240
just have to go to like next slide to find the next product. There isn't like

129
00:09:37,200 --> 00:09:42,880
a list of products

130
00:09:40,240 --> 00:09:46,080
and then there's like name. So, if you're just like scroll to the wrong

131
00:09:44,480 --> 00:09:50,399
part, it's like at a really weird part of the page.

132
00:09:49,040 --> 00:09:53,360
What? Oh, sorry. I wasn't screen sharing. They missed all that. They

133
00:09:52,160 --> 00:09:58,480
missed all the epicness. Do you know what I'll tell you though? Back to my

134
00:09:55,760 --> 00:10:03,200
topic, having completely skipped yours, but this is terrible. This is just Is

135
00:10:00,560 --> 00:10:06,640
this like a blank ad spot? I probably like, are they just not serving it? This

136
00:10:05,120 --> 00:10:09,920
isn't even like a proper topic. I just wanted to show how like really really

137
00:10:08,480 --> 00:10:15,360
bad this is. Yeah, there you go. Oh, there it is. Okay. Um,

138
00:10:12,959 --> 00:10:20,480
anyway, back on the subject of of So, okay. So, why? So, I've switched to the

139
00:10:17,680 --> 00:10:26,959
iPhone 7. I have switched to the Apple Watch and I'm using the MacBook Pro as

140
00:10:23,279 --> 00:10:30,480
best I can as a daily driver. Um, in

141
00:10:26,959 --> 00:10:32,560
order to even if I'm going to have

142
00:10:30,480 --> 00:10:36,640
frustrations that come along with not being an experienced Mac user, I want to

143
00:10:35,040 --> 00:10:40,880
try to experience some of the best things about it. Um, stuff like

144
00:10:38,320 --> 00:10:44,480
continuity really is amazing. Being able to have a text message come in in my

145
00:10:42,399 --> 00:10:48,240
pocket and not even have to look at my wrist, just have it pop up on my

146
00:10:46,079 --> 00:10:54,480
computer. Blippity blopity, I'm done. I mean, I don't use text messages a lot

147
00:10:50,320 --> 00:10:56,399
anymore because that's like it's 2016,

148
00:10:54,480 --> 00:10:59,360
but um anyway, the point is there is stuff about it that's really, really

149
00:10:57,519 --> 00:11:03,440
cool, and I want to make sure that I'm experiencing all of that that best case

150
00:11:01,519 --> 00:11:08,000
scenario stuff to help offset some of the things that I'm not going to like

151
00:11:05,040 --> 00:11:14,240
about it. Uh the touchpad is amazing. Touchpad's amazing. Um I'm trying to

152
00:11:11,120 --> 00:11:15,839
think what else is amazing. Um I there

153
00:11:14,240 --> 00:11:20,720
are things that there are things that I do like about the Touch Bar.

154
00:11:18,079 --> 00:11:24,399
Yeah, I can see that being cool. Um I Oh, shoot. I don't think I put down Oh,

155
00:11:22,160 --> 00:11:28,320
yeah. Okay. When you open up calculator, so even though you don't have a number

156
00:11:25,920 --> 00:11:33,920
pad because it's a laptop, uh the touch bar puts all of your um your functions.

157
00:11:31,519 --> 00:11:39,440
So, plus minus and and there because it's above the number pad, they're

158
00:11:35,600 --> 00:11:42,240
close. And I was like, oh, that's cool.

159
00:11:39,440 --> 00:11:46,720
That just saved me time. However, most of the time as I'm typing, it has word

160
00:11:44,240 --> 00:11:52,399
suggestions for some completely like who types such so slowly that it would be

161
00:11:50,160 --> 00:11:57,600
faster to move their hands off the keyboard and press a suggested word. Oh

162
00:11:55,839 --> 00:12:02,079
man. And especially because spellch check is built in OSwide, which is

163
00:11:59,519 --> 00:12:06,320
another thing I like. I don't even need it for autocorrect.

164
00:12:03,839 --> 00:12:10,800
Why is it there? Um,

165
00:12:07,839 --> 00:12:17,040
so anyway, that's what I'm Dion says that he types slow enough for that to

166
00:12:12,959 --> 00:12:19,279
help and Beta Rage says he does and Zach

167
00:12:17,040 --> 00:12:25,519
says that his dad does. So, here's my feedback. Get typing. There's websites

168
00:12:23,279 --> 00:12:29,839
that you can go to where you like type the names of words that are on like fish

169
00:12:27,760 --> 00:12:32,560
and stuff. They have them in elementary school and they make it so that you type

170
00:12:31,120 --> 00:12:36,560
faster. They make it so it's fun to learn to type. Yeah. Um, one of them is

171
00:12:34,880 --> 00:12:41,440
probably called learn to type. Typing is an important life skill. Now, with that

172
00:12:38,160 --> 00:12:43,600
said, I do see it as a pretty cool like

173
00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:48,399
disability feature. Like, if you actually can't type. Okay. Yeah. Like,

174
00:12:46,560 --> 00:12:52,639
let's say you like you were in an accident and like, you know, the last uh

175
00:12:50,560 --> 00:12:57,200
joint of a couple of your fingers got lpped off or or something like that. So,

176
00:12:54,320 --> 00:13:02,000
there's like a specific reason that is not trainable. Yes. To like why? Yeah.

177
00:13:00,079 --> 00:13:05,519
Yeah. So, I could see that. Um, I could also see people just having a really

178
00:13:03,519 --> 00:13:09,519
hard time typing on that keyboard. Oh, because it's just terrible. Yeah. Um,

179
00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:14,240
I'm getting faster though. I'm getting faster on it. I'm still gonna do I'm

180
00:13:11,920 --> 00:13:16,639
going to actually speed test in my like that's going to be part of my review

181
00:13:15,200 --> 00:13:20,639
because for me this one's really bad, too. I like it. I'm really fast. This

182
00:13:19,040 --> 00:13:26,560
one specifically is worse than Oh, you're on the stealth. Yes. Oh, that's right. Okay. Um, anyway. Oh, right.

183
00:13:24,320 --> 00:13:30,480
Other issues that I'm running into. So, I'm having such a hard time switching to

184
00:13:28,560 --> 00:13:35,600
it as a daily driver because of just how fundamentally broken certain things are.

185
00:13:33,279 --> 00:13:40,720
Uh, for example, browsing network shares. And yes, they're SMB shares, but

186
00:13:37,600 --> 00:13:42,000
it should still be okay. Holy balls. If

187
00:13:40,720 --> 00:13:46,639
you go to a directory you've never been to before, you can wait like 20 seconds

188
00:13:44,000 --> 00:13:50,800
for the files to populate. And it it's not even like like like thumbnails like

189
00:13:48,399 --> 00:13:57,519
where they'll start to pop in. It's just it it's just empty for like a long time

190
00:13:53,360 --> 00:14:02,959
and then it's like oh I got it. Um also

191
00:13:57,519 --> 00:14:05,600
HDMI output is broken AF on many capture

192
00:14:02,959 --> 00:14:09,199
cards. So I'm not going to blame my AVIO 4K because and these guys are awesome by

193
00:14:08,000 --> 00:14:13,120
the way. They already have an alpha firmware to us for capturing PS4 Pro.

194
00:14:11,279 --> 00:14:15,920
Nice. I don't know if I told you that. I don't know if I told John that. I should

195
00:14:14,320 --> 00:14:20,240
tell John that. Aren't they Canadian? Um, that would explain why it says made

196
00:14:18,399 --> 00:14:24,240
in Canada and why the number that they call me from is based in Ottawa. So,

197
00:14:22,079 --> 00:14:29,199
yeah. Anyway, they're cool guys. Epipan. Um, and they're the reason that our

198
00:14:25,920 --> 00:14:31,680
capture streams don't fall fall off the

199
00:14:29,199 --> 00:14:35,120
rails anymore. And that even test through one though. When I don't test I

200
00:14:33,199 --> 00:14:38,720
know. I told them that. Okay. Um, when I when every time I don't test my screen

201
00:14:36,800 --> 00:14:43,600
capture, it just like works. Yeah. Anyway, these guys are great. um they're

202
00:14:41,600 --> 00:14:47,440
already aware that the MacBook Pro cannot be captured and it's not just

203
00:14:45,839 --> 00:14:52,480
them. If I remember correctly, I'm pretty sure they use these on the ISS.

204
00:14:50,480 --> 00:14:58,079
Really? I remember because I was doing research into them. Um

205
00:14:55,440 --> 00:15:01,920
but I just I need I need pass through. Yeah. Yeah. Pass through would be a very

206
00:15:00,240 --> 00:15:06,880
very good thing because it's really janky to use an HDMI splitter and Yeah.

207
00:15:05,440 --> 00:15:11,360
And like I can do that but I would just rather not. Yeah. Um, so, so that's

208
00:15:09,760 --> 00:15:17,519
where we're at on whatever I was talking about just now. Uh, oh, I actually have

209
00:15:14,880 --> 00:15:20,800
a new egg black Friday deal that's also on ncx.com.

210
00:15:19,279 --> 00:15:24,959
So, you can get it in the states or Canada. Uh, Intel has a crazy deal.

211
00:15:23,760 --> 00:15:29,040
These Black Friday deal things that we're calling out are not sponsored, just so everyone knows. Yeah. Just so

212
00:15:27,360 --> 00:15:33,440
you know, this is just I'm planning to buy a whack of them. Um, I hate how

213
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:36,320
Newegg will just glitch out because you're not in do you're not in the

214
00:15:35,040 --> 00:15:40,880
States. Well, it's a render. make it like go. Yeah, I think it's a high DPI

215
00:15:38,720 --> 00:15:43,440
screen issue because it works fine on some of my computers and not others.

216
00:15:42,240 --> 00:15:46,800
They should be able to fix that. Well, they should. Yeah. Well, that's And even

217
00:15:45,360 --> 00:15:51,120
if they can't fix it. So, just to show you guys what we're talking about. Um,

218
00:15:48,880 --> 00:15:57,360
if you load a page Don't think it's going to do it worked this time. Yeah.

219
00:15:54,000 --> 00:16:00,639
Holy crap. So, sometimes the What just

220
00:15:57,360 --> 00:16:02,320
happened? What? It just Oh, wow. It took

221
00:16:00,639 --> 00:16:07,920
me to new egg. It took me back to the homepage. So much fail. It'll it'll like

222
00:16:05,920 --> 00:16:11,519
gray out the screen to put that popup being like, "You're in Canada. Do you

223
00:16:09,759 --> 00:16:14,720
mean.ca um but then not bring up the popup." So,

224
00:16:13,440 --> 00:16:23,440
you just have to click somewhere and then it'll go away. Actually, no, because new egg.ca is terrible. Yeah.

225
00:16:19,519 --> 00:16:25,759
Anyway, uh this is on for like $300 off,

226
00:16:23,440 --> 00:16:30,560
which works out to like $450 Canadian off. So, or like 400 something along

227
00:16:28,399 --> 00:16:33,839
those lines. So, I'm actually and it's limit two per customer, but I think I

228
00:16:32,160 --> 00:16:39,199
can gain the system because I actually want to try and get 24 of them. Yeah.

229
00:16:36,240 --> 00:16:46,320
So, I'm working on a plan to convert our SSD server to a pure NVMe server. We

230
00:16:43,519 --> 00:16:51,040
have we have 15 people that work here. Well, it's not so much just that as that

231
00:16:48,959 --> 00:16:55,519
there could be two ingest stations out there streaming high bit rate video onto

232
00:16:53,839 --> 00:17:00,399
it while six people are sitting in there. Oh, no. in order to get that many

233
00:16:57,600 --> 00:17:04,000
of them. Oh. Oh, yeah. Yeah. Yeah. We're just going to we're just going to have

234
00:17:01,600 --> 00:17:06,720
people buy them and expense them. You could do that, right? Like it's not

235
00:17:05,280 --> 00:17:12,400
illegal. It's just breaking New Egg's terms of service, which quite frankly, what do I care? Um,

236
00:17:10,640 --> 00:17:17,120
so this is the machine I'm planning. It's really funny because in a video

237
00:17:14,400 --> 00:17:21,199
recently, I basically made fun of people for browsing the super micro website

238
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:28,000
recreationally, but it is 100% something that I do.

239
00:17:26,319 --> 00:17:34,320
So, I'm planning to put it in one of these that I just discovered and had not

240
00:17:30,640 --> 00:17:37,679
seen before at all. 24 NVMe drives. It's

241
00:17:34,320 --> 00:17:40,480
a 24 bay NVMe server, so you can install

242
00:17:37,679 --> 00:17:47,280
I think three a half height and two more full height PCI Express uh cards off of

243
00:17:43,440 --> 00:17:49,039
risers. It's dual socket uh 2011 three

244
00:17:47,280 --> 00:17:55,840
and then it's can take up to whatever that is like 24 memory slots. Um yeah,

245
00:17:53,679 --> 00:17:59,840
so I've talked to them. Oh yeah, quad 10 gig LAN.

246
00:17:57,760 --> 00:18:04,080
So we will be definitely taking advantage of that bigger 10 gig ser uh

247
00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:08,960
10 gig switch that we got. That's really epic. Um so this thing is disgusting.

248
00:18:06,240 --> 00:18:13,120
Now with that said, there are some issues that I do have to figure out.

249
00:18:11,200 --> 00:18:17,200
Unfortunately, the deal ends in like 2 days, so I don't have a lot of time to

250
00:18:15,120 --> 00:18:21,440
decide. And because Super Micro's American office is closed for, as far as

251
00:18:19,760 --> 00:18:25,600
I can tell, Americans, like if you're American out there, you guys celebrate

252
00:18:23,360 --> 00:18:30,080
Thanksgiving for like a week, right? Like, is it As far as I can tell,

253
00:18:28,000 --> 00:18:36,799
everyone in America takes an entire week off for Fourth of July, Thanksgiving,

254
00:18:34,080 --> 00:18:40,400
and Christmas? Pretty much like, am I am I wrong? I

255
00:18:38,720 --> 00:18:45,520
like that's my experience when trying to contact Here's here's John. What's up,

256
00:18:42,480 --> 00:18:47,200
John? Am I off here? How much time do we

257
00:18:45,520 --> 00:18:53,440
take off for what holiday? Like a week for Fourth of July? No. Oh, come on.

258
00:18:50,880 --> 00:18:57,280
Like it's usually an extended weekend. An extended weekend he calls it. But

259
00:18:55,440 --> 00:19:01,520
like does an extended weekend mean like it's not seven days. A day on either

260
00:18:58,880 --> 00:19:06,400
side. Okay. Not seven days. Okay. How how how long? Seven days. What's that?

261
00:19:03,280 --> 00:19:08,400
How long do you think? Um Fourth of July

262
00:19:06,400 --> 00:19:12,320
is on a weekend. It might be if it's on a weekend. Three or four day weekend.

263
00:19:10,080 --> 00:19:17,200
Three or four day weekend, but not Okay. But like Thanksgiving, um, when I was in

264
00:19:15,200 --> 00:19:20,799
school, um, they can't hear you, so I have to kind of like translate. When I

265
00:19:19,200 --> 00:19:24,160
was in school, they did one day on each side. Okay. So, it became, so

266
00:19:22,559 --> 00:19:28,720
Thanksgiving would be a five day weekend. Be like a five day weekend, but

267
00:19:26,480 --> 00:19:33,120
Christmas people can take a lot of time. Okay. Okay. So,

268
00:19:31,120 --> 00:19:37,760
so anyway, getting in touch with anyone down there is kind of an issue right

269
00:19:35,120 --> 00:19:43,760
now. Um, but I did get in touch with one of one of my reps who get this. I was

270
00:19:41,039 --> 00:19:47,360
like, "Okay, so what I don't know about this kind of configuration, because

271
00:19:45,440 --> 00:19:52,160
obviously you don't run out and buy a RAID card,

272
00:19:49,360 --> 00:19:57,440
duh." Um, so you you know, because I my first

273
00:19:55,360 --> 00:20:02,559
question when Lionus asked or told me he was going to do it, I was like, how do you even plug them all in? Windows

274
00:19:59,760 --> 00:20:09,120
Storage Spaces is a gigantic dog turd. Um, the last time I used it, though I

275
00:20:04,400 --> 00:20:10,640
haven't tried it on 2016 preview. Um, I

276
00:20:09,120 --> 00:20:16,720
mean, okay, so the list kind of kind of goes on here. Like software RAID in

277
00:20:12,720 --> 00:20:18,320
Windows is basically a terrible idea.

278
00:20:16,720 --> 00:20:21,600
Um, and the performance hasn't been great when I've toolled around with it

279
00:20:19,760 --> 00:20:24,960
in the past. So, I'm kind of sitting here going like and and yes, I'm aware

280
00:20:23,440 --> 00:20:28,320
of the issues with RAID cards to all the people. I haven't looked at Twitch chat,

281
00:20:26,480 --> 00:20:31,840
but I'm sure that Twitch chat is full of people talking about how Raid is dead.

282
00:20:30,159 --> 00:20:38,159
No, there is still a place for RAID. What Raid is not is foolproof. So what

283
00:20:35,120 --> 00:20:42,000
you want is RAID with some kind of real

284
00:20:38,159 --> 00:20:44,320
time uh real time failover. So I

285
00:20:42,000 --> 00:20:49,760
actually have that. So anyway, so I so I I call him up and I'm like, "So what am

286
00:20:46,799 --> 00:20:55,600
I going to run this on?" Because I found one post somewhere that talked

287
00:20:53,039 --> 00:21:00,400
about free .naz and NVMe. Um so as far as I can tell, most people

288
00:20:58,960 --> 00:21:04,400
concerning themselves with a machine like this are not using it for video

289
00:21:02,320 --> 00:21:10,559
editing. They're using it as like like a caching server for like very very high

290
00:21:08,880 --> 00:21:14,080
traffic pages or something like that. Like they're looking for massive IOPS.

291
00:21:12,720 --> 00:21:18,720
They're probably running some kind of completely custom software solution. Um

292
00:21:16,720 --> 00:21:23,520
they could be running some kind of like you know tens and tens of thousands of

293
00:21:20,240 --> 00:21:26,000
dollars uh per piece of software or like

294
00:21:23,520 --> 00:21:30,720
you know sand type of system or whatever the case may be. It would be like it'd

295
00:21:27,679 --> 00:21:32,000
be like a solutions provider

296
00:21:30,720 --> 00:21:37,280
working with something like this. Anyway, so I'm just like, "Okay, so but

297
00:21:35,520 --> 00:21:43,679
I have to decide now if I'm buying the drives." And he's like, "Um, just go for

298
00:21:41,280 --> 00:21:45,760
it." And I'm like, "Well, can you get in touch with someone who knows what we're

299
00:21:44,799 --> 00:21:51,520
supposed to run?" He's like, "Yeah, no, I don't know, but I'm I'm sure there's something." I'm like, "Dude, this is

300
00:21:49,280 --> 00:21:56,240
like $16,000." He's like, "Yeah, it'll be fine."

301
00:21:56,240 --> 00:22:02,640
Like, you're not being very reassuring right now. So anyway, I happen to have a

302
00:22:00,159 --> 00:22:07,280
handful of 750 series drives and I've been tooling around with just Windows's

303
00:22:04,640 --> 00:22:12,480
built-in RAID 5 software. It said call Wendle. Call I could call Wendle. Not a

304
00:22:09,760 --> 00:22:16,320
terrible idea. I I actually I You'll end up with a Linux solution.

305
00:22:14,080 --> 00:22:19,360
No, I meant to message him. Yeah. Um and then I No, I I remember what happened.

306
00:22:17,840 --> 00:22:24,640
That's when I was looking for my phone. Oh. And then when I found my phone, I forgot to message him. Anyway, so yeah,

307
00:22:22,960 --> 00:22:31,600
I could call Wendell, but the problem is that I do already have a solution for

308
00:22:29,280 --> 00:22:39,280
our real time synchronization that is working very very well. Um, it's and it

309
00:22:34,880 --> 00:22:43,200
is a Windows or I forget what it is, but

310
00:22:39,280 --> 00:22:44,960
it's like something else and not Linux.

311
00:22:43,200 --> 00:22:51,840
Um, uh, uh, what is it called? Is it called

312
00:22:48,000 --> 00:22:55,200
uh, Piercyn? Is that what I'm using?

313
00:22:51,840 --> 00:22:58,799
Yeah. So, I ended up buying Piercync,

314
00:22:55,200 --> 00:23:02,080
which is like a $2,000 piece of

315
00:22:58,799 --> 00:23:06,480
software, which is ridiculous.

316
00:23:02,080 --> 00:23:12,480
Um, but it work. Okay. So, it runs on

317
00:23:06,480 --> 00:23:16,080
uh Azure, Windows Server, NetApp,

318
00:23:12,480 --> 00:23:19,039
and Cloud on Tap. And that's it. And

319
00:23:16,080 --> 00:23:22,960
that's it. So, it runs on Windows. So, uh, what it, but it's it's it's like

320
00:23:21,280 --> 00:23:27,679
amazing. It's bulletproof. That's this is not a sponsored piece. I paid for it.

321
00:23:25,840 --> 00:23:31,919
Although, freaking knows. I've gotten my money's worth, uh, with tech support

322
00:23:29,600 --> 00:23:38,080
because our use case, once again, was very unusual. Um, and I I found kind of

323
00:23:35,600 --> 00:23:41,760
a weird idiosyncrasy of the software that made it so that if I had an

324
00:23:39,440 --> 00:23:46,400
off-site backup that had a much much slower link, it was basically nerfing my

325
00:23:44,240 --> 00:23:50,960
on-site backups and bottlenecking it. And there was like some tunable that I

326
00:23:47,760 --> 00:23:54,720
had to. Anyway, uh the point is whenever

327
00:23:50,960 --> 00:23:57,760
I make a change to our SSD server, it is

328
00:23:54,720 --> 00:24:00,720
replicated within about 2 seconds to a

329
00:23:57,760 --> 00:24:06,240
mechanical server elsewhere. And it also allows me to have a recycle bin for a

330
00:24:03,200 --> 00:24:08,559
network storage uh device that is

331
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:13,440
bulletproof. So if someone deletes something, it moves into a recycled

332
00:24:10,799 --> 00:24:16,640
folder on that other machine. even though we don't have to deal with

333
00:24:14,720 --> 00:24:22,720
actually having the space taken up by a recycle bin on the actual Nazbox. So I'm

334
00:24:20,880 --> 00:24:26,640
really really happy with how that's working and I really just don't want to

335
00:24:24,720 --> 00:24:30,240
touch it. So I would like to use Windows and what that means is even if that

336
00:24:28,159 --> 00:24:34,159
software RAID 5 is garbage, what I'll probably do is take the existing WX

337
00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:37,919
server and I'll have that as my real-time backup. So I'll be fully solid

338
00:24:36,080 --> 00:24:42,400
state on both the A machine and the B and the target machine. So that's kind

339
00:24:40,480 --> 00:24:46,080
of that's kind of the plan. That's kind of what I'm thinking. Um I'm sure

340
00:24:44,799 --> 00:24:51,200
someone's going to tell me I'm wrong. And hey, with my track record, you might

341
00:24:48,799 --> 00:24:57,440
be right. But with four drives running in a RAID five over there right now, um

342
00:24:53,679 --> 00:24:59,600
I am able to pull not in a single um not

343
00:24:57,440 --> 00:25:02,480
with a single file transfer. Single file transfers, I'm reading at about two

344
00:25:00,960 --> 00:25:06,320
gigabytes per second and writing at about one, but with multiple file

345
00:25:04,480 --> 00:25:10,640
transfers, I can pull off of it at about two and a half, three gigabytes per

346
00:25:08,000 --> 00:25:16,240
second to a RAM disk. and I can write to it at closer to um one and a half

347
00:25:14,159 --> 00:25:20,400
gigabytes per second. So, I'm I'm super thrilled with that. And I'm really I'm

348
00:25:18,480 --> 00:25:24,640
really pleased with thanks to the IOPS of an NVMe device or not an of NVMe

349
00:25:22,799 --> 00:25:30,159
devices, I'm really pleased with the way that it scales with multiple users

350
00:25:26,880 --> 00:25:31,600
instead of hitting a brick wall when you

351
00:25:30,159 --> 00:25:35,360
hit it with multiple users the way that mechanical does and to a much lesser

352
00:25:33,279 --> 00:25:40,080
extent uh regular solid state, especially off of a RAID card where

353
00:25:36,799 --> 00:25:43,679
trim's not working correctly. So, um,

354
00:25:40,080 --> 00:25:45,120
that's that's kind of my plan for that.

355
00:25:43,679 --> 00:25:49,679
That's going to be pretty nuts. We have no topics today, so I made a topic out of that. Are you going to do a holy

356
00:25:48,000 --> 00:25:53,679
episode about like just unboxing all the NVMe drives? I I think it makes a ton of

357
00:25:52,080 --> 00:25:59,039
sense. I think uh once the server and the NVMe drives arrive, that would be um

358
00:25:56,960 --> 00:26:02,159
Hold on, calculator. This is another thing that's really great about uh

359
00:26:00,559 --> 00:26:06,480
Apple. Watch this. Uh start menu works. Oh,

360
00:26:04,960 --> 00:26:12,640
okay. It actually worked that time. Oh, wow. Brilliant. Uh, well, whatever.

361
00:26:09,039 --> 00:26:15,039
Search works. Oh, yeah. Search actually

362
00:26:12,640 --> 00:26:18,799
works, which is amazing. Um, start menu works. Search probably works. Yeah,

363
00:26:17,039 --> 00:26:22,640
Spotlight is awesome. The calculator probably works more than 75% of the

364
00:26:20,799 --> 00:26:25,919
time. The calculator works in Windows. The calculator's bricked on my work

365
00:26:24,000 --> 00:26:28,960
machine and my house. Really? Literally can't open the application. If you do,

366
00:26:27,520 --> 00:26:34,960
it'll just load infinitely and you have to end the task. Oh, well, get wrecked,

367
00:26:32,080 --> 00:26:39,600
son. Yep. So, it would be a 28.8 terabyte NVMe.

368
00:26:37,120 --> 00:26:42,400
Nazbox, which would be pretty sick. That's ridiculous. Yeah, I think that I

369
00:26:41,039 --> 00:26:47,279
think that justifies a holy But then I would also want to do a video um

370
00:26:44,720 --> 00:26:53,039
benchmarking it and showing it in use. Remember the like really old like viral

371
00:26:51,039 --> 00:26:56,960
nerd video of that dude linking all the SSDs into that machine? He's got like

372
00:26:55,120 --> 00:27:00,960
colored hair and they make a weird song out of it and it's like his whole office

373
00:26:58,880 --> 00:27:04,880
singing and stuff. No. Isn't it all like Samsung SSDs or something? I have no

374
00:27:02,960 --> 00:27:09,279
idea. He like copies a CD before he can drop it out of a window.

375
00:27:07,120 --> 00:27:14,919
No, you don't remember this. I think it's like 24 SSDs in RAID zero or

376
00:27:11,919 --> 00:27:14,919
something.

377
00:27:15,200 --> 00:27:20,400
Let me like this used to be like

378
00:27:18,480 --> 00:27:24,720
just Why don't I do a rapid fire topic while you go ahead and uh and look that

379
00:27:22,480 --> 00:27:31,120
up. Yeah, it it sounds like the hottest thing. Samsung, what what happens when

380
00:27:26,960 --> 00:27:35,440
you raid 24 SSD hard disks? It has 2.3

381
00:27:31,120 --> 00:27:37,440
million views. It was uploaded in 2011.

382
00:27:35,440 --> 00:27:43,120
There's Paul the IT genius with like reddish pinkish hair. Oh, what happened?

383
00:27:41,360 --> 00:27:47,679
That's it. Yeah. Okay. All right. Let's pull this up. Let's pull this up. I'm

384
00:27:45,039 --> 00:27:53,159
game. Being marketing people, we thought of

385
00:27:49,279 --> 00:27:53,159
some pretty rubbish adverts.

386
00:27:56,399 --> 00:28:01,960
Something something. So, he like builds the computer.

387
00:28:02,480 --> 00:28:08,200
hacksaws mounting for his almond cooler.

388
00:28:08,399 --> 00:28:13,559
He's using skull trail for some reason

389
00:28:16,320 --> 00:28:19,640
and then

390
00:28:20,240 --> 00:28:26,880
Yep. Okay. Well, that's uh and then go to the go to like near the end because

391
00:28:25,039 --> 00:28:32,640
they they turn it into like a song and stuff, but you got to get to like

392
00:28:30,240 --> 00:28:37,200
So, he's like showing loading pictures and then he shows like

393
00:28:34,559 --> 00:28:40,399
jumping with all the SSDs and the computer keeps running because this is

394
00:28:38,399 --> 00:28:45,679
like very early on SSDs and people don't realize that that doesn't matter at all.

395
00:28:43,120 --> 00:28:51,799
Hell yeah. Hell yeah. This is where they like just have weird music and they just

396
00:28:48,240 --> 00:28:51,799
go like whoa.

397
00:28:53,440 --> 00:28:58,880
Okay. I I loved this video. I somehow

398
00:28:56,799 --> 00:29:04,799
missed this little piece of I watched this video so many times. I showed it to

399
00:29:00,799 --> 00:29:09,039
so many people, man. Apparently 2.3 uh

400
00:29:04,799 --> 00:29:11,360
2.3 million of them. Yep. Yep. This was

401
00:29:09,039 --> 00:29:18,640
like before anyone I knew had even seen an SSD, right? And this dude had 24. And

402
00:29:14,799 --> 00:29:20,000
I was just like, whoa, it's so fast. So,

403
00:29:18,640 --> 00:29:25,520
you can you could just remake that video. There you go. I probably won't. 2.3

404
00:29:23,440 --> 00:29:31,279
million views. I like the Yeah, I 2.3 million views. You won't remake that

405
00:29:28,080 --> 00:29:35,279
video. All right, let's get on to the uh

406
00:29:31,279 --> 00:29:38,080
in Paul the IT genius's name. In Paul's

407
00:29:35,279 --> 00:29:41,760
name, we remake the You're just not going to let me move on to any real

408
00:29:39,440 --> 00:29:47,840
topics. There's no real topics. Well, okay. Elon Musk won a contract, which is

409
00:29:45,600 --> 00:29:52,080
fascinating. That's new. That's never happened before. An ocean surveying

410
00:29:49,760 --> 00:29:57,679
satellite. Sweet. The cost of launching the probe is valued at 112 million. That

411
00:29:54,799 --> 00:30:02,320
is assuming that uh President-elect Trump doesn't completely cut all the

412
00:29:59,760 --> 00:30:10,399
funding for Earth observation. And just for you fact checkers out there, that is

413
00:30:05,120 --> 00:30:12,399
more than the cost of uh 24 NVMe SSDs.

414
00:30:10,399 --> 00:30:17,679
Barely, but it is um we've done the math. So

415
00:30:15,919 --> 00:30:22,159
designed to scan the planet's oceans and provide the first ever global survey of

416
00:30:19,679 --> 00:30:27,279
Earth's surface water. satellite something something SpaceX's

417
00:30:24,080 --> 00:30:28,799
Falcon 9 rockets. Wow. Okay. Uh comes at

418
00:30:27,279 --> 00:30:34,320
a higher value than previous launch contracts NASA has awarded to SpaceX.

419
00:30:32,000 --> 00:30:40,880
Um cool. Nice. Uh well, okay. This one's

420
00:30:37,679 --> 00:30:44,240
also from The Verge. Here we go. Samsung

421
00:30:40,880 --> 00:30:47,200
is adding new obtrusive ads to your old

422
00:30:44,240 --> 00:30:52,000
smart TV. Apparently, they feel they did not make enough money on that TV the

423
00:30:49,679 --> 00:30:56,080
first time they sold it to you. So now they need to put some ads on it. So this

424
00:30:54,000 --> 00:31:00,240
this was like top of Reddit and all this kind of

425
00:30:58,000 --> 00:31:06,159
stuff. And the the Reddit thread's name was like right when your return policy

426
00:31:03,600 --> 00:31:11,600
ends, they start giving you ads and all this kind of stuff. And uh they don't

427
00:31:09,039 --> 00:31:16,159
seem completely wrong, which is pretty brutal. I have zero

428
00:31:14,000 --> 00:31:21,039
interest in a smart TV at all. One, I don't watch TV, so slow clap for that

429
00:31:18,960 --> 00:31:25,279
one. But then if I was going to watch something like Netflix or whatever, I

430
00:31:23,279 --> 00:31:29,279
would do it through a chcast because it would be a better and easier experience.

431
00:31:27,039 --> 00:31:34,080
Anyways, you know what? The Netflix app on my smart TV is actually very good. Is

432
00:31:32,480 --> 00:31:38,799
it literally easier than like while you're sitting down just saying what you

433
00:31:36,320 --> 00:31:44,480
want to watch and then it just happens? Um, it has an air mouse so that's really

434
00:31:41,519 --> 00:31:48,399
nice cuz like I don't I Okay. I haven't decided what I'm going to watch before I

435
00:31:46,000 --> 00:31:55,399
sit down. Oh, like I browse. Oh, I don't? Yeah. And I have like children,

436
00:31:50,480 --> 00:31:55,399
so there's like debate. Oh,

437
00:31:55,600 --> 00:32:01,679
these things that I don't experience. That makes sense. Yeah. So like, and

438
00:32:00,320 --> 00:32:06,640
there's like research to see if it's actually okay to watch, maybe. Um, yeah,

439
00:32:04,799 --> 00:32:11,279
sometimes. Although I guess you probably already know. I could do that on my

440
00:32:08,240 --> 00:32:13,840
phone while we're like looking at

441
00:32:11,279 --> 00:32:17,360
things. We also have four, five now people sitting down in front of the TV

442
00:32:15,440 --> 00:32:20,880
at one time. So many people. So like one of them could be could be checking

443
00:32:19,039 --> 00:32:23,679
Rotten Tomatoes while the other one of them is like, "Oh, what about this one?

444
00:32:22,320 --> 00:32:30,000
Why don't you check this one?" Are you going to have to move? Could be a collaborative maybe.

445
00:32:28,720 --> 00:32:36,320
I don't want to talk about Did you guys think about that? So okay, we've thought

446
00:32:33,919 --> 00:32:40,559
about it, but we've both come to very different conclusions.

447
00:32:38,159 --> 00:32:44,559
So we have both come to the conclusion that we I never thought about this that

448
00:32:42,399 --> 00:32:48,960
we don't have to move. However, we have arrived at that

449
00:32:46,480 --> 00:32:52,720
conclusion in two very unique and different ways.

450
00:32:51,120 --> 00:32:56,399
Okay. Would you like to hear my conclusion or Ivon's conclusion first?

451
00:32:54,480 --> 00:33:03,679
Both, but yours first. Okay. So, my conclusion is that the two kids, the two

452
00:33:00,080 --> 00:33:05,760
same-sex kids can share a room forever,

453
00:33:03,679 --> 00:33:08,760
which will encourage them to move out sooner.

454
00:33:09,120 --> 00:33:18,320
Okay. That that sounds Yeah. Okay. Ivon's theory is that I am not going to

455
00:33:15,840 --> 00:33:22,880
have an office upstairs anymore and I'm not going to have a server room

456
00:33:19,679 --> 00:33:24,559
adjoining set office and my world's most

457
00:33:22,880 --> 00:33:28,880
comfortable gaming setup which is over on the other side of set office will no

458
00:33:26,960 --> 00:33:32,640
longer be accessible to me because that will be the room that the kids will

459
00:33:30,240 --> 00:33:37,279
share and I will be stuck with one of those bedrooms for me and her to have

460
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:41,760
our computer setups and for me to have all of my server crap which clearly is

461
00:33:40,080 --> 00:33:46,240
stupid. That is stupid. Also, Windows is force

462
00:33:43,919 --> 00:33:49,919
restarting my computer right now. While I'm live on a show, there's no delay

463
00:33:48,159 --> 00:33:56,880
option. Geez. Yep, man. I don't want Windows 10

464
00:33:53,600 --> 00:33:58,399
anymore. Anyways, that's that's Wow.

465
00:33:56,880 --> 00:34:03,200
Yeah. Are you actually going to lose all your stuff? Another option would be to

466
00:34:01,039 --> 00:34:07,360
give up all three of the rooms upstairs and they could all have their own rooms.

467
00:34:04,720 --> 00:34:15,040
But, um I don't know. I guess it depends on how mad the teenage

468
00:34:11,119 --> 00:34:17,200
eating pooping machines um are and how

469
00:34:15,040 --> 00:34:20,320
how forcefully that hopefully they never find this show where I even say I'm

470
00:34:18,639 --> 00:34:24,240
considering it because if they ask me I'm going to be like nope these two

471
00:34:22,159 --> 00:34:28,560
rooms are kid rooms you divide up the space in them as as you see fit but like

472
00:34:26,879 --> 00:34:33,679
once they're older those rooms aren't that big. No they're not like at all.

473
00:34:31,359 --> 00:34:38,879
No, they're really not. Our house in general has a storage space issue. Yeah.

474
00:34:36,639 --> 00:34:43,599
Like in the downstairs, think about it. Yeah. There's the pantry off the kitchen

475
00:34:41,359 --> 00:34:47,040
in the back room, which is not huge, which is like not even big enough for

476
00:34:45,440 --> 00:34:50,960
all the food for all the people that need to live in that house really. Um,

477
00:34:49,280 --> 00:34:55,839
part of the problem is that the kitchen layout was redone by the previous owners

478
00:34:52,720 --> 00:34:57,200
who were dinks. Um, so so there's like

479
00:34:55,839 --> 00:35:03,520
Oh, that kitchen layout totally makes sense. There's like a lot of room for

480
00:34:59,599 --> 00:35:07,760
wine glasses and there's like not a lot

481
00:35:03,520 --> 00:35:11,040
of room for cooking supplies.

482
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:13,760
Um, yeah. So, there's that. So, then

483
00:35:11,040 --> 00:35:18,160
downstairs, we also have that one tiny hall closet next to the laundry room,

484
00:35:15,760 --> 00:35:21,920
and that's it. Yeah. And that has like winter coats and shoes in it, and it's

485
00:35:20,160 --> 00:35:27,040
already completely full. It has like the built-in vacuum hose. Like, it's full.

486
00:35:25,119 --> 00:35:31,040
Upstairs, there's two small closets in the bedrooms. The walk-in closet, again,

487
00:35:29,280 --> 00:35:37,760
this was a remodeling choice made by the previous owners. The walk-in closet was

488
00:35:34,480 --> 00:35:41,040
torn out to make room for a gigantic

489
00:35:37,760 --> 00:35:44,160
bathroom with two sinks,

490
00:35:41,040 --> 00:35:46,880
a twoerson standing shower, and a really

491
00:35:44,160 --> 00:35:50,480
nice bathtub with like tile on all sides and it's like awesome and everything.

492
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:54,960
Really nice, but it means that you take up a lot of the space in that room with just like wardrobes and stuff because

493
00:35:53,520 --> 00:35:58,480
there's no I'm pretty sure your bathroom is bigger than one of the kids' rooms

494
00:35:56,640 --> 00:36:04,640
will be. Um, so, so anyway, that was it until we

495
00:36:02,400 --> 00:36:07,920
put the, uh, the the ladder up to the attic and then we got a little bit of

496
00:36:06,160 --> 00:36:11,440
space up there, but other than that, there was nothing. There was nowhere to

497
00:36:09,920 --> 00:36:16,000
Yeah. Well, and it doesn't help that I turned those two little closets in the

498
00:36:13,040 --> 00:36:20,640
office into a server room and world's most comfortable gaming setup. So, I

499
00:36:18,400 --> 00:36:24,480
have contributed to my own problem here. This is a thing that I acknowledge.

500
00:36:22,000 --> 00:36:27,839
Yeah. Uh, I really don't want to move, but I have actually And I don't think

501
00:36:26,320 --> 00:36:33,920
Avon wants to move either. It's really funny you're bringing this up cuz I have legitimately looked into what it would

502
00:36:31,440 --> 00:36:39,680
cost to jack up the house and put a basement under it and it is not trivial.

503
00:36:36,960 --> 00:36:44,640
No. No. Like those are really expensive. It can be done. But like even aside be

504
00:36:42,320 --> 00:36:48,560
sweet though. Even aside from the like deep into six figures that that's going

505
00:36:46,800 --> 00:36:52,480
to cost like it would be an additional mortgage item. It wouldn't be like write

506
00:36:50,240 --> 00:36:57,680
a check item. Yeah. Um, in addition to that, when they pick it up and when they

507
00:36:55,280 --> 00:37:01,040
put it back down, structural issues, not so much structural issues. They're

508
00:36:59,200 --> 00:37:06,480
pretty good at it, but all your drywall cracks. Well,

509
00:37:04,400 --> 00:37:10,079
okay. I didn't mean like structural integrity. I meant like Yeah. Yeah.

510
00:37:08,240 --> 00:37:14,560
structural integrity should be okay. Yeah. But like you basically have to

511
00:37:11,760 --> 00:37:20,000
redrywall your entire house and like probably refloor it. like you you you

512
00:37:17,520 --> 00:37:26,320
basically don't do that unless there's like a very compelling reason. But even

513
00:37:22,960 --> 00:37:30,960
if we were like, "Okay, let's move to

514
00:37:26,320 --> 00:37:32,960
the Philippines for six months and just

515
00:37:30,960 --> 00:37:35,760
tear it down and build something else entirely on the because like by the time

516
00:37:34,640 --> 00:37:42,320
you're spending that by the time you're reorggaging and spending that much money, uh screw it. Let's go on holiday

517
00:37:40,400 --> 00:37:45,359
for half a year while they rebuild a new house on the property or something

518
00:37:43,760 --> 00:37:49,440
stupid like that." I don't even know if we'd be able to do that because that

519
00:37:47,680 --> 00:37:53,359
whole area is like a planned neighborhood and there's going to be all

520
00:37:51,280 --> 00:37:58,880
those bylaws about what color your house can be and what the facing looks like

521
00:37:55,680 --> 00:38:01,839
and blah blah blah blah. I might have to

522
00:37:58,880 --> 00:38:06,800
move. I would hate to move. I love where I live. You should have had less kids

523
00:38:05,440 --> 00:38:10,880
because there's going to be a big conflict there.

524
00:38:08,720 --> 00:38:14,079
You know it, too. Or you're going to completely You know this to be true. You

525
00:38:12,720 --> 00:38:18,160
do. or you're going to completely lose your office. And if and if you

526
00:38:15,839 --> 00:38:24,720
completely lose your office, that room will be far cooler than all the other

527
00:38:21,359 --> 00:38:27,599
ones. Front-facing window, two little

528
00:38:24,720 --> 00:38:32,560
side rooms that are like sick. And a bigger area by itself.

529
00:38:30,560 --> 00:38:36,880
So, which kid gets that? That's going to create a huge conflict. Firstborn

530
00:38:35,280 --> 00:38:40,079
birthright. That's pretty much the only way to do it. still going to create it

531
00:38:38,800 --> 00:38:44,400
probably, but that's still going to create. I mean, that was honestly what

532
00:38:42,000 --> 00:38:50,400
I'll tell you though is in our house growing up, that was how it worked. So,

533
00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:54,960
my older sister got the first crack at the basement. So, so the way it worked

534
00:38:52,960 --> 00:39:00,160
was our basement. So, you like you queue through essentially. Amazing. Okay. So,

535
00:38:57,760 --> 00:39:03,359
you went it was set up as a suite. Um, so, so you went down the stairs and

536
00:39:01,839 --> 00:39:07,200
there was like a shared laundry room, which is like an amazing way for a suite

537
00:39:05,119 --> 00:39:10,800
to work, by the way. Um, and then there was a second door like kind of an

538
00:39:08,560 --> 00:39:14,240
airlock style thing. So this laundry room and then there was another door.

539
00:39:12,400 --> 00:39:19,359
That's how I had that's how most the places that I've So that opened up into

540
00:39:16,880 --> 00:39:24,800
a really big kind of like living room den area and then there was a small

541
00:39:21,520 --> 00:39:26,079
hallway to a gigantic dining room that

542
00:39:24,800 --> 00:39:31,280
had like a it was even though it was a basement, the way my they built the house themselves, the way they did it

543
00:39:29,200 --> 00:39:36,240
was really smart in certain ways. Uh, not in others. Uh, so they actually

544
00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:38,400
lifted the they lifted the basement up a

545
00:39:36,240 --> 00:39:41,599
bit so that it made the house really tall, but there were no building

546
00:39:40,160 --> 00:39:45,520
restrictions in the middle of like buttthump nowhere in Maple Ridge anyway,

547
00:39:43,599 --> 00:39:49,920
so who was going to care? Um, but they lifted it up about 3 feet 3 and 1/2 ft

548
00:39:48,480 --> 00:39:53,599
above the ground so you could have Windows in the basement. Yeah. So in the

549
00:39:52,000 --> 00:39:57,200
dining room in the in the downstairs kitchen, you actually had like bay

550
00:39:55,359 --> 00:40:00,480
Windows, which is like super nice looking out into kind of like the sky

551
00:39:58,800 --> 00:40:04,640
backyard area. And then there was a kitchen and then there was a single

552
00:40:02,160 --> 00:40:07,280
bedroom with a bathroom. Um, and the idea was kind of you could have like

553
00:40:06,000 --> 00:40:14,079
kind of a master bedroom and then you could have like a sleep space outside or whatever the case may be. So anyway, she

554
00:40:12,079 --> 00:40:18,400
had a shot at that bedroom and the outside den was like a playroom TV

555
00:40:16,240 --> 00:40:25,440
watching area and then you had your own kitchen fully functional. It always

556
00:40:20,880 --> 00:40:27,280
worked. And she took the attic.

557
00:40:25,440 --> 00:40:29,920
She took the attic. You had the basement, didn't you? She took the

558
00:40:28,640 --> 00:40:36,000
attic. So, okay, in her defense, the attic was

559
00:40:33,040 --> 00:40:42,560
bigger. Okay. Because it was an entire story of the house, but then again, so

560
00:40:40,000 --> 00:40:49,119
was the basement. Yeah. But and but like it sl the roof sloped. Um and but it had

561
00:40:46,480 --> 00:40:54,560
like pull down like ladder style stairs to get in and out of it and and like

562
00:40:52,000 --> 00:40:59,920
it's like she wasn't thinking at all. And to get into your bedroom, if you're

563
00:40:57,440 --> 00:41:05,040
out late, you had to walk past my parents' bedroom.

564
00:41:02,319 --> 00:41:09,240
What an idiot. I had my own entrance.

565
00:41:09,520 --> 00:41:15,680
What a tool. So anyway, we did it on the

566
00:41:13,359 --> 00:41:19,280
Birthright system. Okay. So when I moved out, someone else the next one down was

567
00:41:17,760 --> 00:41:25,680
eligible for the for the basement bedroom. Yeah. But um I everyone

568
00:41:22,400 --> 00:41:27,520
accepted it. So, we'll see. We'll see. I

569
00:41:25,680 --> 00:41:31,359
especially accepted it. I was thrilled you don't get an office. I don't want to

570
00:41:30,000 --> 00:41:36,319
talk about that because like everything's too expensive or server

571
00:41:33,359 --> 00:41:40,240
like moving. Honestly, moving will be too expensive. Where would you put your

572
00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:44,480
server? I could put it in the garage, but I'd

573
00:41:41,920 --> 00:41:47,440
have to rewire everything. And then, honestly, with Corning's Thunderbolt

574
00:41:46,079 --> 00:41:51,440
cables, I could even move all the systems to the garage still. I I I have

575
00:41:49,680 --> 00:41:55,839
thought about this a fair bit. I could see I knew you would have thought about it. That's why I'm pushing the topic.

576
00:41:54,000 --> 00:41:59,520
So, what I was thinking is I would off of the studs in the garage to keep them

577
00:41:57,839 --> 00:42:05,760
away from the cars like kind of like tire storage is I would build out like a

578
00:42:02,960 --> 00:42:08,720
cabinet like a rack style thing and I would still rack mount everything. And

579
00:42:07,200 --> 00:42:13,599
then if I had it in the garage, the garage actually does stay relatively

580
00:42:10,319 --> 00:42:16,560
cool even in the summer um cuz it's not

581
00:42:13,599 --> 00:42:20,319
right up against the roof. So, yes, I have given some thought to it, but yes,

582
00:42:18,319 --> 00:42:24,400
I will be highly resistant to it anyway. But yeah, moving is basically

583
00:42:21,760 --> 00:42:28,480
impossible. That's why I've like casually looked into every every one

584
00:42:26,319 --> 00:42:33,040
every like probably six months I go like what would it take for me to get my own

585
00:42:30,880 --> 00:42:38,640
place and then I'm like oh yeah I live in BC. Yep. Okay. Especially the

586
00:42:35,839 --> 00:42:42,800
Vancouver part of BC. And the problem is that even if I were to look at a new

587
00:42:40,720 --> 00:42:45,680
place like so you know what there's really no point hiding this. It's not

588
00:42:44,160 --> 00:42:51,839
like it's not like no one can look it up. So, uh, places in the area that I

589
00:42:48,480 --> 00:42:56,160
live go for like a million dollars now.

590
00:42:51,839 --> 00:43:01,119
A mere, what was it? Six years ago, that

591
00:42:56,160 --> 00:43:03,520
number was a little over half of that.

592
00:43:01,119 --> 00:43:07,839
So, okay. So, that's problem number one. So, so if I wanted to upgrade, so like

593
00:43:06,400 --> 00:43:13,680
good luck trying to catch up to that. You'd have to save 500 somethingish

594
00:43:10,960 --> 00:43:17,680
grand. And theoretically, I I sell my place and I and I make up a lot of that

595
00:43:15,280 --> 00:43:23,280
money, but that only buys me a place in the place where I am. So, if I'm trying

596
00:43:20,560 --> 00:43:29,200
to upgrade to something because you want more rooms, because I want more rooms,

597
00:43:25,520 --> 00:43:31,200
then I have to pay proportionally more,

598
00:43:29,200 --> 00:43:34,400
like it it gets it gets to the point where it's more expensive even to

599
00:43:32,720 --> 00:43:39,520
upgrade unless you're willing to reorggage, which quite frankly, when I'm

600
00:43:36,480 --> 00:43:43,280
done being mortgaged, I'm I'm done. Like

601
00:43:39,520 --> 00:43:47,040
I don't want to be like 45 and like

602
00:43:43,280 --> 00:43:50,160
having a new mortgage. That's that I get

603
00:43:47,040 --> 00:43:52,720
very I get very stressed out about debt.

604
00:43:50,160 --> 00:43:56,160
Yeah, me too. Um I I want it to be done as quickly as possible and I have no

605
00:43:54,160 --> 00:43:59,440
desire to go back into debt. Um especially because I've already had all

606
00:43:58,079 --> 00:44:06,720
the stress that I can handle with all the debt that I've had to go into on the business side of things. You've heard

607
00:44:02,240 --> 00:44:08,319
some of my stress about debt. Yes.

608
00:44:06,720 --> 00:44:12,640
So basically, Right. Okay. Okay, so problem number two is that anything with

609
00:44:10,640 --> 00:44:16,720
a bigger house is usually newer construction because that's in vogue

610
00:44:14,240 --> 00:44:20,160
now. And any newer construction, unless you're doing something custom or you're

611
00:44:18,079 --> 00:44:24,560
buying like like an estate, like something on like an acre or two with

612
00:44:22,160 --> 00:44:30,560
gardens and waterfalls and crap is pretty terrible is on a tiny lot. That

613
00:44:26,720 --> 00:44:32,640
too I want for the foreseeable future my

614
00:44:30,560 --> 00:44:35,920
kids or grandkids to have a yard to play in. And that's something that's not in

615
00:44:34,319 --> 00:44:40,079
fashion anymore. So, if you want a bigger house, you have to have a smaller

616
00:44:38,000 --> 00:44:45,599
lot, unless you're willing to pay like way more money than makes any sense. So,

617
00:44:43,119 --> 00:44:50,079
I don't want to move. I don't want to move. I don't want to jack up my house.

618
00:44:48,079 --> 00:44:53,680
And I don't want to give up my office. Do you want to talk about Flip Plane?

619
00:44:52,000 --> 00:44:57,520
Uh, we should probably do our sponsor spots first though. Funny funny thing.

620
00:44:55,359 --> 00:45:01,760
Uh, we have 6,400 viewers right now, which is about as many, if not more, as

621
00:44:59,599 --> 00:45:05,520
when we actually talk about technology. Yeah, this this was the like Lionus is

622
00:45:04,160 --> 00:45:10,319
trying to make up for topics, so he's going to talk very quickly and constantly show.

623
00:45:09,040 --> 00:45:14,240
I'm really good at it. It's worked really well. I'm not complaining. I'm

624
00:45:12,560 --> 00:45:17,520
just observing. Well, you know what? I mean, it's been a long time since we've

625
00:45:15,760 --> 00:45:22,960
done a show like this where it's just like kind of life updates and that kind

626
00:45:19,839 --> 00:45:25,280
of stuff. This is sort of the the show

627
00:45:22,960 --> 00:45:29,200
that I sort of pitched the other day. Yeah. The like car talk, the original

628
00:45:27,040 --> 00:45:33,119
car talk kind of thing. The car talk show. Yeah. We don't talk about cars.

629
00:45:31,440 --> 00:45:36,640
Don't worry. It wouldn't be It wouldn't be nearly as bad as that. Okay. The idea

630
00:45:35,119 --> 00:45:40,640
came from he would drive me home because I couldn't afford transport. Um, you

631
00:45:39,200 --> 00:45:43,680
could afford it. It just took a really long time. It usually wasn't running

632
00:45:42,240 --> 00:45:47,200
anymore by the time we were finished working. Yeah. I could I couldn't afford

633
00:45:45,520 --> 00:45:51,920
transport that I could take. Whole other issue.

634
00:45:49,440 --> 00:45:56,079
Um, and then we would talk in the like actually really long time that it would

635
00:45:53,280 --> 00:46:01,680
take to get me home. So, that's where the idea came from.

636
00:45:58,560 --> 00:46:04,560
Um, okay. I fix it. Oh, what's this? We

637
00:46:01,680 --> 00:46:09,040
have new essential electronics tool kit, which is like a chopped down version and

638
00:46:07,040 --> 00:46:14,319
probably a lot cheaper. The electronics repair starter kit. You know what? Even

639
00:46:11,359 --> 00:46:18,400
though this is a sponsor spot, I'm not going to lie, I'm going to be pretty

640
00:46:16,400 --> 00:46:26,640
critical if I don't like this thing. Oh, dang. because the iFixit ProTek toolkit

641
00:46:23,280 --> 00:46:30,960
is like actually amazing and has saved

642
00:46:26,640 --> 00:46:33,280
my butt a lot of times. And I am

643
00:46:30,960 --> 00:46:39,359
personally of the mind when it comes to tools that you buy properly once and you

644
00:46:37,280 --> 00:46:45,599
take really good care of them and you don't lose them. And that is the way to

645
00:46:43,359 --> 00:46:52,800
be about tools and they serve you really well for a long time. That is why

646
00:46:49,040 --> 00:46:56,079
This screwdriver has been in my life for

647
00:46:52,800 --> 00:46:58,720
almost 15 years now. This exact

648
00:46:56,079 --> 00:47:04,160
screwdriver. That's why I invested in a $100 screwdriver. And that's why I'm not

649
00:47:01,599 --> 00:47:11,760
afraid to spend the $60 or $70 or whatever it is for the ProTek toolkit.

650
00:47:07,680 --> 00:47:14,160
Um, now with that said, let's have a

651
00:47:11,760 --> 00:47:19,119
look at their value option and see what we think of it here. So, it's it's One

652
00:47:17,440 --> 00:47:22,720
thing I like about it already is that the kit is pretty flat, which is a

653
00:47:21,119 --> 00:47:25,839
little bit nicer for sliding into a bag. The back of it is totally flat. The

654
00:47:24,240 --> 00:47:29,760
front of it is a little bit of a I just mean it's thinner. Yeah. Yeah. Um, so I

655
00:47:28,079 --> 00:47:35,280
like So, it has a magnetic I'll take that from you. Um, you can take this. I

656
00:47:33,359 --> 00:47:38,560
take that. Yes. Because it's Oh, no. Yours is actually fine. Oh, no. Yeah.

657
00:47:36,560 --> 00:47:41,200
Mine Mine's good. Uh, I wish I could kind of show this to you guys in some Do

658
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:46,960
you want to hold them up while I go through them? Okay. So, you get one of

659
00:47:44,400 --> 00:47:50,960
their plastic pry tools. If this was the original Protek tool kit, not the the

660
00:47:49,040 --> 00:47:53,760
new version. Oh, yeah. You have them. So, you get one of their little pry

661
00:47:52,079 --> 00:47:57,599
tools. Then I would actually object pretty strongly to this. Um, but the new

662
00:47:55,920 --> 00:48:01,040
ones are a lot more durable and they don't break as often. They These guys

663
00:47:59,760 --> 00:48:06,240
are pretty smart, though. You push here and it pops up. I think it's the bottom

664
00:48:04,000 --> 00:48:10,640
for all of them, which is kind of cool. Um, you get one pair of tweezers, and

665
00:48:08,880 --> 00:48:16,240
I'll give them credit. This is the only pair that I use. the the angled uh sharp

666
00:48:14,160 --> 00:48:19,920
nose ones. And I've used this for everything from grabbing a screw out of

667
00:48:18,640 --> 00:48:24,240
somewhere that's hard to reach, like a non-magnetic screw, to I've actually

668
00:48:21,839 --> 00:48:28,160
used it for motherboard socket repair. Oh, wow. It's fine enough that I was

669
00:48:26,559 --> 00:48:31,119
able to get in there. I I didn't have a needle on me, which is my preferred tool

670
00:48:29,680 --> 00:48:35,440
for that. Yeah. And I was able to make do with this. I've had to do it with

671
00:48:32,800 --> 00:48:40,800
like a credit card before. I've made it work. That's terrible. I know. Um you've

672
00:48:38,480 --> 00:48:45,839
got their uh Oh, there it goes. They've got their pry tool, the the little like

673
00:48:42,640 --> 00:48:47,520
knot sharp knifey tool. Uh I believe

674
00:48:45,839 --> 00:48:52,000
these ones are what are actually called spudgers. I can never remember. But

675
00:48:49,119 --> 00:48:56,079
anyway, it's got like um like a like a prying thing on one side and then it's

676
00:48:53,599 --> 00:48:59,920
got a pokey thing on the other end. Uh use that for everything from what's it

677
00:48:58,319 --> 00:49:03,680
called? Yeah, that is called a spudger. Uh everything from like pressing reset

678
00:49:01,839 --> 00:49:09,359
buttons and routers to pretty much you name it. This is enough stuff outside of

679
00:49:06,000 --> 00:49:13,119
a like heat gun to replace the sc uh

680
00:49:09,359 --> 00:49:14,880
screen on a Pixel. Um some guitar picks,

681
00:49:13,119 --> 00:49:17,920
which is pretty solid. Suction cup. The suction cup is actually something I was

682
00:49:16,319 --> 00:49:22,079
pretty upset was not included with the original Protek Toolkit. So, it's nice

683
00:49:19,920 --> 00:49:25,280
to see that. Um it's enough to work on a phone, not enough to work on like an

684
00:49:23,440 --> 00:49:29,599
iMac or something, but that's why I called out the Pixel. All right. Now,

685
00:49:27,359 --> 00:49:33,760
let's look let's look at the bits here because that is that is what I'm pretty

686
00:49:32,000 --> 00:49:41,920
worried about. So, you've got torques from T4 to TR10,

687
00:49:39,280 --> 00:49:47,760
and the R ones are the security torques. That'll cover taking apart SSDs, um,

688
00:49:45,280 --> 00:49:50,760
many, many laptops. Um,

689
00:49:52,400 --> 00:49:58,960
no tri-wing. No Tri-wing. I'm pretty disappointed that there's no T-wing. Uh,

690
00:49:57,520 --> 00:50:03,359
that means you won't be repairing any Nintendo devices, though. Nintendo are

691
00:50:01,520 --> 00:50:08,480
the main ones that I know of that use Tri-Wing. Uh you've got a P2 and a P5

692
00:50:06,160 --> 00:50:13,520
pentalobe, so that should take care of your Apple needs. Um you've got a couple

693
00:50:11,440 --> 00:50:17,760
slots, three slots, including a very, very, very slim one. A SIM removal. See,

694
00:50:16,079 --> 00:50:22,079
I would have rather seen a tri-wing instead of the SIM removal, but for some

695
00:50:20,559 --> 00:50:25,760
people, I guess that'll be handy. I do like that they have the SIM removal. And

696
00:50:23,599 --> 00:50:29,599
F, you use the SIM removal. Okay. Well, I carry like a handful of SIM removal

697
00:50:27,520 --> 00:50:33,440
tools in my backpack otherwise. So maybe that's why I don't For the last while,

698
00:50:31,280 --> 00:50:36,800
I've finally freed myself, thank goodness. But for the last while, I've

699
00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:40,160
been using Sony phones, right? And they don't need them. Okay. So, I would never

700
00:50:38,640 --> 00:50:43,040
have one on me. And if I did actually happen to need one, I would just go to

701
00:50:41,680 --> 00:50:48,319
And then you've got five Phillips head all the way from triple0 to two. So, if

702
00:50:45,839 --> 00:50:51,839
I were to give iFixit some constructive feedback, which I'm sure they're not

703
00:50:50,160 --> 00:50:57,119
asking for during a sponsored spot, but if I were to do so, I would drop the

704
00:50:54,800 --> 00:51:02,160
size two Phillips and I would drop the SIM removal tool and I would replace

705
00:51:00,079 --> 00:51:09,599
those with a couple Tri- Wings. But then again, that's probably like the gamer

706
00:51:05,440 --> 00:51:11,760
centric thinking part of me. And like

707
00:51:09,599 --> 00:51:17,119
not just because I'm a Nintendo fanboy, but they don't break that much.

708
00:51:15,359 --> 00:51:22,000
I just put a new optical drive in my Wii. Yeah, you The only DS I've ever

709
00:51:19,760 --> 00:51:26,400
owned had the shoulder buttons die just like everyone else's DS. They don't

710
00:51:23,520 --> 00:51:29,760
break that much for normal people. All I played was Mario Kart. We we we

711
00:51:28,400 --> 00:51:33,680
talked How long ago did we talk about this? I don't know. You can fix

712
00:51:32,160 --> 00:51:37,520
everything, but everything breaks around you.

713
00:51:35,440 --> 00:51:41,760
It's not even his fault. He'll just like be near it and it will stop for stop

714
00:51:39,599 --> 00:51:45,760
working for literally no apparent reason at all. Like the Wancho computer. Why

715
00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:51,200
did it have so many problems? I have literally no idea.

716
00:51:48,960 --> 00:51:54,640
I stream like a lot. Like it doesn't I don't have I don't know anyone that has

717
00:51:53,040 --> 00:51:57,599
the amount of problems that we've had. I don't know anyone that has like a tenth

718
00:51:56,160 --> 00:52:02,079
the amount of problems that we had. And every single time it would just be like

719
00:51:59,280 --> 00:52:05,760
what the heck is going on? And he'd find some like weird way and it would fix it

720
00:52:03,680 --> 00:52:09,839
and it would be like oh okay great. But but we shouldn't have had to do that.

721
00:52:07,440 --> 00:52:14,319
Exactly. I don't I don't know. So, the screwdriver is their old style, which I

722
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:19,920
definitely don't prefer, but is still functional. Um, and a pro tip for those

723
00:52:17,440 --> 00:52:22,880
of you who are using it. Yeah, this is actually pretty important. You want to

724
00:52:21,200 --> 00:52:27,359
jam things in the top whenever you need more torque. Yes, that's how you do it

725
00:52:24,559 --> 00:52:33,760
cuz these rubber O-rings slip. Yes. So, overall, that will save you at the price

726
00:52:30,319 --> 00:52:37,200
at 20 bucks. Not bad. 20 bucks. Not bad.

727
00:52:33,760 --> 00:52:40,559
This will cover what casuals will need.

728
00:52:37,200 --> 00:52:43,920
Uh, but I personally, and again, like it

729
00:52:40,559 --> 00:52:47,119
is my job to sell this today, but I sort

730
00:52:43,920 --> 00:52:49,760
of don't care. I personally would go for

731
00:52:47,119 --> 00:52:54,640
the Protek tool kit anyway, just because I think that at that price, it's pretty

732
00:52:52,319 --> 00:52:59,119
reasonable considering that that's kind of it's like in that it's in that magic

733
00:52:57,119 --> 00:53:03,599
how much money you would have to spend if you paid someone to repair your

734
00:53:00,720 --> 00:53:09,040
stupid thing. Anyway, yeah, that being said, if you're shopping for

735
00:53:07,359 --> 00:53:14,400
someone, 20 bucks, that's true. Christmas, not a

736
00:53:11,920 --> 00:53:18,960
bad drop. Get them started. Not as good as the Protek Toolkit, but it's not

737
00:53:15,839 --> 00:53:20,960
supposed to be. Yep. Okay, that's fair.

738
00:53:18,960 --> 00:53:24,240
Um, okay. We have another sponsor spot that I promise will be shorter. I'm

739
00:53:22,400 --> 00:53:27,520
sorry that turned into like an unboxing. Are you sure? Well, I don't know if

740
00:53:26,400 --> 00:53:34,079
it'll be short. Yeah, you could talk about this thing forever. Literally forever. We should get the background

741
00:53:31,599 --> 00:53:39,680
first. First he bought one. Yes. Then they didn't deliver it forever.

742
00:53:37,280 --> 00:53:41,839
Then Colton was like, "Hey, who should we work with?" And he's like, "Yeah,

743
00:53:40,640 --> 00:53:46,960
I've loved this thing. It's so amazing. I don't even have it yet, but I'm already in love with it. My pants are so

744
00:53:44,559 --> 00:53:51,359
tight right now." Pretty much. Um, so they reached out and they sent us one

745
00:53:49,040 --> 00:53:56,079
before Luke ever even got one. Buy a lot again. Um, so I had to bring it back to

746
00:53:54,400 --> 00:54:01,040
work. Oh, that was so heartbreaking. Anyways, when you're cooking uh meat,

747
00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:04,559
which isn't at all the only thing that you can cook in with this thing. Uh but

748
00:54:03,359 --> 00:54:09,040
you haven't even said what it is. It's it's so it is a sousie cooker, but like

749
00:54:07,359 --> 00:54:14,720
an immersion cooker, but like almost no one knows what that actually means unless they already have one. Um when

750
00:54:12,319 --> 00:54:19,680
you're when you're cooking meats, you what you're the goal is to make the the

751
00:54:17,119 --> 00:54:23,040
the whole thing get to a minimum temperature, including the very middle,

752
00:54:21,520 --> 00:54:27,440
which is rather difficult to do. and you're using heat that is much higher

753
00:54:25,599 --> 00:54:34,960
than what you're actually trying to get to. I'm just mouththing sousvid cuz it's

754
00:54:30,079 --> 00:54:37,839
fun. Um, so you usually will overheat

755
00:54:34,960 --> 00:54:42,160
the outside just to get to the temperature that you're trying to get to

756
00:54:39,599 --> 00:54:48,000
in the middle. Um what a suvid allows you to do is you you vacuum seal or

757
00:54:45,280 --> 00:54:53,760
evacuate the air out of a ziploc bag so that the ziplockc bag is touching right

758
00:54:50,000 --> 00:54:56,400
next to um the meat and then you dip it

759
00:54:53,760 --> 00:55:00,319
into water. The sousvid cooker is extremely precise and will keep the

760
00:54:58,400 --> 00:55:03,359
water at an extremely Hold on. Actually this is really important. We interrupt

761
00:55:01,680 --> 00:55:08,400
this program to bring you this question from RT Chaser07. Can you cook hot

762
00:55:05,440 --> 00:55:13,599
pockets in it? Uh I think you could. I think you could you

763
00:55:11,040 --> 00:55:17,200
can't cook a turkey unless you cut it first and then you can cook it. Okay.

764
00:55:15,280 --> 00:55:21,119
Sorry. Carry on. Yeah. Yeah. You can't cook a turkey because there would be

765
00:55:18,559 --> 00:55:26,720
like pockets in there. Mhm. Because of where like this organs are or would have

766
00:55:24,880 --> 00:55:29,119
been or would have been. So like that wouldn't really work because the heat

767
00:55:28,319 --> 00:55:33,440
wouldn't be able to go all the way through. Okay. Carry on. Carry on. It

768
00:55:31,359 --> 00:55:37,599
makes it essentially So all that you have to do is put like your meat and

769
00:55:35,520 --> 00:55:41,280
some herbs and spices in a little bag with some olive oil. I always put my

770
00:55:39,359 --> 00:55:46,240
meat in a bag with olive oil. Put that in a pot, put this thing in it, and in

771
00:55:43,520 --> 00:55:50,559
the app, which is amazing. Go like, I want it to look like that. It has a

772
00:55:48,400 --> 00:55:56,720
visual dness thing. And then it just does it for you. You sear it for like 20

773
00:55:53,839 --> 00:56:01,359
seconds, serve, and it will probably be one of the best cooks of that meat that

774
00:55:59,200 --> 00:56:04,079
you've had. Yeah, it is actually really good. And it's available now for holiday

775

gifting. Check it out at chefsteps.com/jwel,

776
00:56:06,960 --> 00:56:14,079

777
00:56:11,200 --> 00:56:18,079
it. All right, which brings us finally to Cooler Master. Check out the Cooler

So much wow. Okay, this one works. Look at that. It's actually kind of

789
00:56:59,920 --> 00:57:04,880
beautiful. Um, all right. Blue, brown, or red

790
00:57:03,200 --> 00:57:08,480
switches. Okay. All right. That's That's pretty

791
00:57:06,799 --> 00:57:13,200
hip. On the fly macro and profile support.

792
00:57:10,720 --> 00:57:17,520
Individual lighting. That's pretty cool. Okay. All right. Okay. All right. Okay.

793
00:57:16,079 --> 00:57:22,160
So clear that you can see the color of the switch. That's actually pretty sweet. Okay. Cooler Master, you got our

796
00:57:33,040 --> 00:57:38,559

798
00:57:40,319 --> 00:57:48,480
range of products and maybe pick up something for yourself this holiday season. What a greedy ad notes, Colton.

799
00:57:46,720 --> 00:57:51,280
Some people, for some people, the holiday season is about buying for

800
00:57:50,000 --> 00:57:56,400
others. Yeah, Colton. Not for Colton. Yeah, I

801
00:57:54,319 --> 00:58:01,440
wouldn't buy for Colton. Sorry, Colton's wife. What a jerk. I don't know if I can

802
00:57:58,799 --> 00:58:08,880
say your name. Hate that guy. Um, all right. So, another funny story. We have

803
00:58:05,119 --> 00:58:12,640
more We have more viewers now than we

804
00:58:08,880 --> 00:58:15,119
did before we started doing ad spots.

805
00:58:12,640 --> 00:58:20,960
I'm convinced that the more that the more fun we have just like

806
00:58:18,559 --> 00:58:24,079
having fun of like Okay, I was actually ready to make fun of that keyboard. Like

807
00:58:22,640 --> 00:58:30,480
I was super ready for that. But it was sweet. But it was actually pretty good. Anyway, I'm convinced that that the more

808
00:58:27,520 --> 00:58:34,559
fun if that's what you're going for, the closer it is to being just as off topic

809
00:58:32,640 --> 00:58:38,480
as the entire rest of the show, then you can't tell the difference cuz you're

810
00:58:36,640 --> 00:58:42,160
like, "Wow, they're pretty informal about these ads.

811
00:58:40,240 --> 00:58:47,400
They're literally like attacking the companies that are giving them ads.

812
00:58:47,520 --> 00:58:55,040
Look, if if they wanted a professional ad

813
00:58:51,520 --> 00:58:56,960
read, they know where to go for that.

814
00:58:55,040 --> 00:59:02,240
And if they and if they want this approach, then by all means, give us

815
00:58:59,440 --> 00:59:08,400
money. Yeah, why not? There you go. Um, okay. Let's talk about the float playing

816
00:59:05,520 --> 00:59:13,359
club. So, you finally get a topic today. Yeah. Yeah. I'm going Linus' screen. I'm

817
00:59:11,119 --> 00:59:16,400
putting us in the background. This is all about I'm just gonna illustrate

818
00:59:15,040 --> 00:59:22,240
whatever it is you're talking about here. Okay. So, under the forums

819
00:59:19,440 --> 00:59:25,760
section, you'll see the hub and the hub is where like we expect most people on

820
00:59:24,240 --> 00:59:30,400
the site to go because, you know, holy crap, go away. Off topic is there. And

821
00:59:28,079 --> 00:59:34,160
there's almost 1.2 million posts because it's off topic. And there's like the

822
00:59:32,319 --> 00:59:38,400
memes thread and the cars thread and the holy crap, that's a big thread. Anime

823
00:59:36,240 --> 00:59:42,240
cards is still pretty good. It is. Yeah, it is. But off topic. Off topic is

824
00:59:40,319 --> 00:59:47,680
ginormous. But there's also the Floatplane club. Rip vessel. Whoa. What? What

825
00:59:44,480 --> 00:59:50,240
is that? What? Oh. Oh, that is so like

826
00:59:47,680 --> 00:59:55,760
savage, man. Rip vessel. Rip vessel. Savage. Anyways, so you can go in there.

827
00:59:54,400 --> 01:00:00,640
Well, I'm working on it. Okay. I'm trying to make your terrible sight look

828
00:59:57,760 --> 01:00:05,760
good. Wow. No, I just I noticed No, the output is

829
01:00:03,119 --> 01:00:08,880
1080p, but I'm high DPI, so like it was it was a little small for them to see

830
01:00:06,960 --> 01:00:14,799
us. Okay. Okay, I'm just bugging you. Oh, I'm just bugging you. It's okay.

831
01:00:11,680 --> 01:00:17,520
We're still friends. Hello, darkness, my

832
01:00:14,799 --> 01:00:20,960
old friend. Um, anyways, this is the Floatplane club and we have an

833
01:00:19,119 --> 01:00:24,240
interesting announcement for you guys. I wonder if Eric and Catboy boiler are

834
01:00:22,559 --> 01:00:30,720
just screaming right now because they're like everything's going to break. Uh,

835
01:00:26,720 --> 01:00:33,200
Eric the tech guru and cat boiler the uh

836
01:00:30,720 --> 01:00:36,640
amazing dude but should probably get a different name. Yeah, I mean it's

837
01:00:34,640 --> 01:00:41,280
against our ter it's against our forum like uh terms to change your username,

838
01:00:39,440 --> 01:00:45,040
but cat boiler, you have my personal permission. Yeah, I'll change it for you

839
01:00:43,040 --> 01:00:49,040
if you think. Apparently, it came out of a name generator and also like a cat

840
01:00:47,359 --> 01:00:52,400
almost like killed him when he was younger.

841
01:00:50,559 --> 01:00:55,839
Cut his artery or something. Okay. It was like actually a big deal. I don't

842
01:00:53,680 --> 01:01:00,079
Sorry if I screwed up the story. Okay, anyways, they have been absolutely

843
01:00:57,680 --> 01:01:04,240
great. Uh, Catboy boiler came in and was like, "Hey, so I have an idea for how

844
01:01:03,119 --> 01:01:08,880
you should do everything." And I read it and I was like, "You haven't explained what this is." Holy crap, it's a lot

845
01:01:06,720 --> 01:01:14,079
better than ours. So, RIP Vessel, we tried to make our own.

846
01:01:11,200 --> 01:01:18,480
So, I guess that's actually like right now it's a sub forum on the Linus Tech

847
01:01:16,400 --> 01:01:22,480
Tips forum. It won't always be that. It will not always be that because that

848
01:01:20,160 --> 01:01:26,880
sucks. Yeah, that's we we're aware that this is not the ideal solution. like

849
01:01:24,960 --> 01:01:30,799
there aren't there's not a graceful way to give people notifications. Are we

850
01:01:29,520 --> 01:01:35,280
going to show them like an early vid? They're they're able to see all the videos here for one, so they know what

851
01:01:34,000 --> 01:01:40,240
videos are coming up. Yeah. I don't know if we thought about that. That's fine. One of my favorite ones to show off is

852
01:01:38,319 --> 01:01:44,480
Brandon's cuz whenever he films anything, it looks better than all the

853
01:01:42,400 --> 01:01:48,160
other videos because he's filming and editing. He cares more about his own

854
01:01:45,680 --> 01:01:52,319
stuff. Yeah, basically. So, check this out. Notice how it's orange. The color's

855
01:01:50,720 --> 01:01:55,440
a little off. We're going to fix that. Yeah, I did not notice it was orange. I

856
01:01:54,079 --> 01:02:01,839
thought it was just like a broken YouTube clone. We'll figure it out.

857
01:01:57,839 --> 01:02:05,280
Okay. Okay. So, right now, what we are

858
01:02:01,839 --> 01:02:07,680
about to witness is a video running off

859
01:02:05,280 --> 01:02:11,920
of Can How much detail can you give them about this like solution you guys

860
01:02:09,839 --> 01:02:18,240
clutched together in like three weeks? Cat boiler back end is is boiler. Yeah,

861
01:02:15,440 --> 01:02:22,079
100%. So, it's we have edge servers. Yeah. That are like distributing things.

862
01:02:20,319 --> 01:02:26,240
So, H I'm going to be light about the

863
01:02:23,920 --> 01:02:31,119
details for now just because can they expect a video about how it works at

864
01:02:27,920 --> 01:02:33,599
some point? Yeah. Okay. Okay. But give

865
01:02:31,119 --> 01:02:36,880
us some give us some idea how you have we have a little bit of load balancing

866
01:02:35,200 --> 01:02:40,079
going on. We have we have the edge servers that don't really use their CPUs

867
01:02:38,559 --> 01:02:45,359
very much. Are they all on the same continent? They all are currently in the

868
01:02:42,640 --> 01:02:49,040
same continent. They will not always be, but we haven't figured out geo targeting

869
01:02:47,040 --> 01:02:52,160
yet. So once that gets figured out, then we'll spawn some in other areas. but

870
01:02:50,720 --> 01:02:56,559
they're all North America right now. That being said, I do know outside of

871
01:02:54,720 --> 01:03:01,760
North America people that have watched full bit rate 1080p streams and had no

872
01:02:59,599 --> 01:03:06,160
problem at all. So, I'm pretty sure it's fine. Um, but we will make it better for

873
01:03:04,880 --> 01:03:11,760
people. We're going to make it great again. We're going to make uh early

874
01:03:09,680 --> 01:03:16,240
access private high bit rate video streams great again. Um, should I should

875
01:03:14,640 --> 01:03:21,920
I just Should I just uh watch it watch it totally break?

876
01:03:19,760 --> 01:03:27,039
Oh no. Oh god. Oh, it's horrible. Oh, of

877
01:03:25,680 --> 01:03:32,079
course. Do you think one of them was literally breaking it in the background so that we would have to go through

878
01:03:29,839 --> 01:03:35,520
this? Maybe. I'm on edge. Is that a problem? Oh god, that might be a

879
01:03:33,359 --> 01:03:40,680
problem. Who goes on edge? Oh, right. We had to do that. That makes sense. Uh,

880
01:03:41,440 --> 01:03:47,920
anyways, the other part of the story is that it's still very much in

881
01:03:46,000 --> 01:03:51,599
development. It's alpha. Yeah, it's alpha right now. Okay. Can you can you

882
01:03:49,680 --> 01:03:56,000
do the thing? Can I uh you know the thing? Uh no, I don't have your sharing

883
01:03:53,359 --> 01:03:59,520
working right now anyway. So, uh bear with me. I'm going to I'm going to do

884
01:03:58,079 --> 01:04:02,559
this thing. I don't have your screen sharing working right now. No, I just

885
01:04:01,119 --> 01:04:07,760
want to see if it works on me. Uh no, no, it's fine. It's fine. It's fine. It's fine. We got this. We got this.

886
01:04:05,039 --> 01:04:13,359
Okay, you by time. By time. Anyways, so we've been developing this thing. How it

887
01:04:10,000 --> 01:04:15,119
started uh was that people that were on

888
01:04:13,359 --> 01:04:18,480
Vessel were served a video right before Vessel went down saying that they could

889
01:04:16,480 --> 01:04:21,520
sign up for a newsletter. And we sent an email to those people saying like, "Hey,

890
01:04:20,160 --> 01:04:25,200
we're trying to do this." We tried to send an email to We tried. It only

891
01:04:23,200 --> 01:04:30,319
worked for some of them. Uh because we got super flagged pretty quick. Um we're

892
01:04:28,799 --> 01:04:36,559
trying to do this thing. It's in early production right now, but what you're going to be able to do is download the

893
01:04:33,200 --> 01:04:38,559
videos um at probably lower resolution,

894
01:04:36,559 --> 01:04:43,920
but much much higher bit rate. Like our 720p looked better than YouTube's 1080p

895
01:04:41,280 --> 01:04:50,000
right away. And that still works even if this continues to not work. Um which

896
01:04:47,119 --> 01:04:53,000
would be, you know, pretty good. There

897
01:04:53,039 --> 01:04:59,599
we go. Okay, so that's 360p,

898
01:04:57,440 --> 01:05:04,960
which I mean they're watching on Twitch. We can chance it again. And see, there

899
01:05:02,720 --> 01:05:09,839
you go. Oh, look at that. Look at that black bar. Brandon magic. Yeah. Okay.

900
01:05:07,920 --> 01:05:13,599
So, like, okay, here we go. Hold on. Hold on. Oh, dang. Oh, we're Oh, we're

901
01:05:11,920 --> 01:05:16,559
stepping it up to 48. So, this it does that weird thing. So, we're going to

902
01:05:15,200 --> 01:05:21,359
maybe try to figure that out at some point. Yes. Yes. Step it up again. Step

903
01:05:19,280 --> 01:05:29,359
it up. 720p. Stepping it. Step it. Step it. Step. Stepping. Oh, is that 720p

904
01:05:24,960 --> 01:05:31,200
stream 720p stream? Oh, damn. Do 1080.

905
01:05:29,359 --> 01:05:35,200
Do the last do the last step. Hold on. Should we Should we show off the uh risk

906
01:05:33,280 --> 01:05:39,839
it the thumbnail thumbnail preview? Oh. Oh. Thumbnail scrubbing. Thumbnail

907
01:05:37,440 --> 01:05:43,200
scrubbing. Hold on. I want to see Brandon touch that camera. So, let's

908
01:05:41,920 --> 01:05:47,440
skip to that part. Oh, look at that buffer speed. Oh, beautiful. Oh, look at

909
01:05:45,839 --> 01:05:53,599
it. Look at it buffered. It's playing. Look at that. Oh, yes. This isn't even

910
01:05:49,200 --> 01:05:55,760
1080p either. Hold on.

911
01:05:53,599 --> 01:06:00,799
It takes a sec. Give it a sec. Give it a second. Hold on. Wait. There you go. Oh.

912
01:05:58,000 --> 01:06:04,319
Oh. Oh. Oh. We are live. We are live at 1080p. Look at Brandon touching that

913
01:06:02,799 --> 01:06:08,880
camera. Look at him. Oh, he's like massaging. I could watch Brandon touch

914
01:06:06,079 --> 01:06:14,480
cameras all day. And it's touchscreen. Wow. Brandon could touch my touchcreen

915
01:06:11,440 --> 01:06:18,240
any day. Look, it's a 50D versus a Wait,

916
01:06:14,480 --> 01:06:21,839
look, it's a 60D versus a 5D. Anyways,

917
01:06:18,240 --> 01:06:24,640
so Eric has done a ton of work on like

918
01:06:21,839 --> 01:06:29,520
the CMS so that like Nick and other people in the office can naturally

919
01:06:26,000 --> 01:06:31,280
upload videos to this thing. Um, and

920
01:06:29,520 --> 01:06:35,839
he's done work in other spaces as well, like getting the transcoding stuff to

921
01:06:32,880 --> 01:06:40,079
work. Cat boiler has been all over the place in terms of how everything works.

922
01:06:37,760 --> 01:06:44,880
He's boiling cats over here, boiling cats over there. He he like cats

923
01:06:43,119 --> 01:06:49,039
that are already boiled over there. he theorized and actually did the whole

924
01:06:47,359 --> 01:06:54,000
like actual infrastructure which makes this work at all which is great. Um

925
01:06:51,920 --> 01:06:58,720
Mortise has been really helpful guiding over the whole time he's like in school

926
01:06:55,440 --> 01:07:00,480
and stuff right now but in his the very

927
01:06:58,720 --> 01:07:03,440
limited spare time he's actually done a lot in trying to like help guide how

928
01:07:02,319 --> 01:07:08,240
it's going to integrate with the forum and all this kind of stuff and then he's going to be a much bigger part of it uh

929
01:07:06,720 --> 01:07:12,799
over the next little while once his school's in kind of a break.

930
01:07:10,720 --> 01:07:17,359
So, people have been really busting their butts getting this working and

931
01:07:15,200 --> 01:07:22,880
it's working. Tech side of things, these guys have been unbelievable. Yeah. Um,

932
01:07:20,640 --> 01:07:27,359
but what we actually still haven't quite figured out is the business side of

933
01:07:25,440 --> 01:07:31,440
things. Oh, yeah. What we're actually going to do with the technology. I

934
01:07:30,160 --> 01:07:36,559
haven't been worried about that part at all. So what so what we what we want um

935
01:07:34,720 --> 01:07:40,240
because Flowplane Club is three bucks a month right now and it's only but it's

936
01:07:38,720 --> 01:07:44,079
only for Linus Media Group stuff. We have no way of having other content

937
01:07:42,480 --> 01:07:47,920
creators on the platform like it's just through the forum. Everything someone

938
01:07:46,079 --> 01:07:51,200
just asked if cat boiler uses a sousvid cooker. Sousvid cookers don't boil. I

939
01:07:49,680 --> 01:07:54,480
just needed to I just needed to You had to say I just had to Okay. Well, I'm

940
01:07:52,880 --> 01:07:59,520
glad you clarified that. Thank you. And I don't think they have a setting for

941
01:07:55,920 --> 01:08:01,760
whole cat anyway. No. Um okay. So, we we

942
01:07:59,520 --> 01:08:08,160
still don't know exactly what we're going to do with it, but the objectives

943
01:08:04,799 --> 01:08:10,799
are pretty clear. We want members of the

944
01:08:08,160 --> 01:08:17,279
Floatplane club, which will likely serve the same kind of purpose, at least

945
01:08:13,520 --> 01:08:20,000
for now, for Linus Media Group, as

946
01:08:17,279 --> 01:08:26,239
something like Patreon and Vessel kind of rolled into one. Um, and we're going

947
01:08:23,440 --> 01:08:31,279
to be combining it with the existing contributor badge system that we had on

948
01:08:28,239 --> 01:08:33,839
the Linus TechTips forum so that you can

949
01:08:31,279 --> 01:08:37,759
start to um, so so for example, bronze, silver, and gold contributors already

950
01:08:35,440 --> 01:08:41,520
get Floatplane club access. Yeah. But bronze contributors who are paying $5 a

951
01:08:39,759 --> 01:08:45,920
month also get no banner ads on the forum. So, we're going to try and figure

952
01:08:43,199 --> 01:08:51,199
out how to turn flowplane club and forum contributors

953
01:08:49,040 --> 01:08:54,480
into some kind of a larger sort of system that would take the place of what

954
01:08:52,560 --> 01:08:58,880
something like a Patreon and something like a vessel would have in the past for

955
01:08:56,480 --> 01:09:03,679
us. Um, so we're trying to think of like other ways to give benefits to other

956
01:09:02,000 --> 01:09:06,960
people on the platform. And should we talk about some of those ideas? Yeah, so

957
01:09:05,279 --> 01:09:10,960
some of the benefits I'm just going to stick to uh Floatplane club benefits

958
01:09:08,880 --> 01:09:16,880
for now. So some of those benefits include early access. Although what's

959
01:09:14,000 --> 01:09:22,159
kind of cool and also makes it not as compelling about this is that we are way

960
01:09:19,440 --> 01:09:27,359
dialing back the way that we're handling early access. So if we think something's

961
01:09:25,040 --> 01:09:33,120
time-sensitive, it's going simultaneous release because there's no contractual

962
01:09:29,359 --> 01:09:34,799
obligation anymore for us to release um

963
01:09:33,120 --> 01:09:38,640
things one week early on on this platform. So that's that has been

964
01:09:37,040 --> 01:09:42,480
frustrating for both sides of the equation. Yeah. Um sometimes there would

965
01:09:40,719 --> 01:09:46,239
be something that like we really thought should have been pretty timely, but we

966
01:09:44,080 --> 01:09:50,400
had done too many simultaneous releases in a short window. So we like couldn't

967
01:09:48,719 --> 01:09:53,759
release it simultaneous and it was like okay that's pretty rough. People really

968
01:09:52,239 --> 01:10:00,560
need to see this on YouTube because it's like an embargo product that just came out. So benefit number one is we want to

969
01:09:57,920 --> 01:10:04,560
manage the our releases better. Benefit and that that's for everyone. Uh benefit

970
01:10:02,800 --> 01:10:09,440
number two is we want to provide a higher quality stream than what you can

971
01:10:06,400 --> 01:10:11,040
get on YouTube for free. Um and I mean

972
01:10:09,440 --> 01:10:14,480
that in the sense that it won't have any bakedin ads anymore. So our pre-roll and

973
01:10:13,120 --> 01:10:20,159
our integration ads at the end, those will be gone. And we want the quality to

974
01:10:17,199 --> 01:10:25,520
look better. Benefit number three is for the foreseeable future, we want to

975
01:10:21,600 --> 01:10:28,239
continue to offer downloads DRM free to

976
01:10:25,520 --> 01:10:32,400
Floatplane club members. So and what I would love to figure out and it it's not

977
01:10:30,400 --> 01:10:36,239
complicated. It's just a matter of getting it together. Um, is how to make

978
01:10:34,560 --> 01:10:41,520
it so people could just subscribe to an RSS feed, download the video, and drop

979
01:10:39,520 --> 01:10:44,800
it into Plex with all the metadata populated so they could watch it off

980
01:10:42,960 --> 01:10:49,679
their Plex server. Yeah. For Flow Plane Club members, we would consider for

981
01:10:46,560 --> 01:10:52,239
personal use that to be within the

982
01:10:49,679 --> 01:10:56,800
license that they have for the content for personal use, but yeah, that they're

983
01:10:53,920 --> 01:11:00,640
subscribed to for personal use. Um so DRM free is another one of the benefits

984
01:10:58,560 --> 01:11:05,280
that we want to have for this whole concept. And then uh there was another

985
01:11:02,960 --> 01:11:10,880
one that I was thinking right. And then finally um at some point in the future

986
01:11:08,480 --> 01:11:16,400
we would like to find a way to make it ad supported. And I this is getting way

987
01:11:13,520 --> 01:11:22,000
ahead of ourselves I know. We would like to find some way to make it ad supported

988
01:11:18,719 --> 01:11:24,560
so that the benefit could be for us that

989
01:11:22,000 --> 01:11:28,480
we are able to pull people off platform ad supported for people who aren't Yes.

990
01:11:26,719 --> 01:11:32,640
Flow plane members. Yes. Just to make that optionally ad supported. Yeah. So

991
01:11:30,640 --> 01:11:38,080
if you like a free tier that ad supported. Yeah. Um so the benefit for

992
01:11:35,040 --> 01:11:40,000
us would be that we actually

993
01:11:38,080 --> 01:11:45,440
engage directly with our viewers and the benefit for viewers would be no more

994
01:11:42,239 --> 01:11:50,400
YouTube subscription box nonsense.

995
01:11:45,440 --> 01:11:53,199
Um so that is that is where we are kind

996
01:11:50,400 --> 01:11:56,320
of and that's a big maybe. That's a huge maybe because it depends. We would

997
01:11:54,800 --> 01:12:00,560
probably have to double or triple our sales team. We would have to get other

998
01:11:58,159 --> 01:12:06,159
creators on board. Um, there would be a lot of things we would have to do, but

999
01:12:02,880 --> 01:12:07,280
we have we have some interesting tech.

1000
01:12:06,159 --> 01:12:13,040
We just need to figure out how to do with it, what to how to do with it, how

1001
01:12:09,600 --> 01:12:15,040
to English it at all. Um,

1002
01:12:13,040 --> 01:12:18,239
and that's where uh that's kind of that's kind of where we're at on it. I

1003
01:12:16,880 --> 01:12:22,880
haven't actually been paying close attention to what Twitch chat has had to

1004
01:12:20,480 --> 01:12:27,199
say about it, but basically

1005
01:12:24,800 --> 01:12:30,480
um yeah, I mean, what what else is there to say? I mean, there's a lot of stuff

1006
01:12:28,880 --> 01:12:35,679
still to be worked on. Like, one thing is if if you're if you load the thread

1007
01:12:33,920 --> 01:12:39,280
and you look at the video and stuff, it all works. And then if you go to like

1008
01:12:37,679 --> 01:12:42,320
the last page of the thread and then back to the first page of the thread, it

1009
01:12:40,719 --> 01:12:48,480
won't work anymore. You have to refresh. Yeah. And like we know why and we'll

1010
01:12:45,360 --> 01:12:50,960
figure it out. Um, the downloads thing

1011
01:12:48,480 --> 01:12:54,159
is a little janky right now, but that is actually very close to being finished.

1012
01:12:52,239 --> 01:12:59,199
Catboy has been figuring that out. Um, just like everything else. Um, so like

1013
01:12:57,600 --> 01:13:04,880
there's there's still a bunch of work to be done, but it's it's coming along

1014
01:13:02,239 --> 01:13:09,280
incredibly fast and it's already to be completely honest a pretty good

1015
01:13:07,120 --> 01:13:15,440
experience. Um, there are some problems like I know Jake was using an iPhone 6S

1016
01:13:12,800 --> 01:13:20,800
with Chrome installed and it didn't seem to work for him. So there's like some

1017
01:13:17,120 --> 01:13:22,400
use cases that don't work super awesome.

1018
01:13:20,800 --> 01:13:27,840
I wonder if they have changed some stuff. What do you mean?

1019
01:13:25,760 --> 01:13:31,120
because uh this isn't playing on Safari right now either and I played one

1020
01:13:29,120 --> 01:13:36,880
yesterday. One thing that we need to do is get a dev server. Um

1021
01:13:34,159 --> 01:13:42,080
because we're doing live changes on everything. So when things break it's

1022
01:13:38,880 --> 01:13:44,080
just like oh crap. Uh everyone has that

1023
01:13:42,080 --> 01:13:47,520
version right now. Uh so we'll be getting a dev server soon. It's still

1024
01:13:45,920 --> 01:13:51,679
all very early on. We're what like three weeks in. Well did it? Yeah. No, that

1025
01:13:50,719 --> 01:13:56,000
was a different thing. Sorry I was looking at something else. Okay. That was a YouTube video cuz I definitely

1026
01:13:54,320 --> 01:14:00,080
showed this to my dad like the other day. Yeah. So, I don't know. Still

1027
01:13:58,560 --> 01:14:05,520
figuring it out, but it's coming along incredibly fast. Um,

1028
01:14:03,679 --> 01:14:08,640
and on a desktop at least, it seems to work fairly well. If you do have a

1029
01:14:06,960 --> 01:14:15,280
problem, refresh the page. If that doesn't fix it, uh, let us know. Yeah.

1030
01:14:12,560 --> 01:14:22,080
Uh, it definitely works on Android. So if you're like

1031
01:14:17,840 --> 01:14:25,280
like Chrome on Android or Chrome on

1032
01:14:22,080 --> 01:14:27,840
Windows, then you're good. Yeah, those

1033
01:14:25,280 --> 01:14:31,360
ones are the main tested things, which is probably the most of our views. So

1034
01:14:29,440 --> 01:14:35,199
yeah, I just I wanted to demo it working on

1035
01:14:33,199 --> 01:14:41,840
mobile. I was trying to do that and it didn't fly.

1036
01:14:37,600 --> 01:14:44,719
Here we go. Look at it go. 1080p mobile.

1037
01:14:41,840 --> 01:14:48,880
Yay. So it's working on Android. Yeah, which is why I always carry an iPhone

1038
01:14:46,560 --> 01:14:53,120
and an Android phone. So, I think everyone should do that for for float

1039
01:14:51,440 --> 01:14:56,800
play. That way I can have better an better Instagram experience on my

1040
01:14:54,800 --> 01:15:01,120
iPhone. There you go. And I can watch Floatplane videos on my uh on my

1041
01:14:58,880 --> 01:15:06,080
Android phone. We'll figure that out at some point. Um

1042
01:15:03,840 --> 01:15:11,920
Okay. Yeah. So, do we have any like actual topics for this week?

1043
01:15:08,719 --> 01:15:13,760
Uh blah blah blah blah blah blah blah.

1044
01:15:11,920 --> 01:15:19,520
Xbox One streaming comes to the Oculus Rift on December 12th.

1045
01:15:16,320 --> 01:15:21,760
Um, does anyone care?

1046
01:15:19,520 --> 01:15:26,320
I mean, I don't know. Free update. Well, it

1047
01:15:24,640 --> 01:15:30,000
better be free. I don't think anyone's going to pay for it. I hate I really,

1048
01:15:28,080 --> 01:15:34,080
really hate this like kind of description of virtual reality. The uh

1049
01:15:32,159 --> 01:15:39,600
free update will allow users to play Xbox One games in front of a huge

1050
01:15:36,640 --> 01:15:43,600
virtual display. Have you ever had that feeling in VR

1051
01:15:42,080 --> 01:15:48,080
when you're like, "Wow, this is a big screen." Like, have you ever felt that?

1052
01:15:45,840 --> 01:15:52,960
Yeah, actually. Really? Yeah. Yeah, I'll buy that. I've had the experience that

1053
01:15:50,320 --> 01:15:59,040
this is a huge uh relatively low definition virtual display. Like in like

1054
01:15:55,920 --> 01:16:00,560
in a like a theater mode. I hate theater

1055
01:15:59,040 --> 01:16:03,600
mode. Yeah. No, I don't I didn't say I like it. I just said I felt like it was

1056
01:16:02,080 --> 01:16:07,840
a really big virtual display. I didn't think it was a great experience. Yeah.

1057
01:16:06,159 --> 01:16:11,920
So, like is that the view? because that's rough. Yeah, I think it's

1058
01:16:09,520 --> 01:16:16,239
supposed to be like um I think it's you're supposed to be like sitting in

1059
01:16:13,280 --> 01:16:21,040
like a cool like harbor or something and then you play a game on like this it

1060
01:16:19,199 --> 01:16:25,679
yeah I don't think it's a very I don't think a lot of people are going to do that. It's like, yes, I want something

1061
01:16:23,520 --> 01:16:30,400
on my face so I can play Xbox games. And like, you own a Rift,

1062
01:16:28,159 --> 01:16:35,840
meaning, and that was Forza, so you own a Rift and a PC and a game that works on

1063
01:16:33,760 --> 01:16:43,760
PC, but you're going to run it on your Xbox and use your Rift on your Xbox and

1064
01:16:39,840 --> 01:16:48,800
play it in that house thing.

1065
01:16:43,760 --> 01:16:51,600
What? Like, I don't know.

1066
01:16:48,800 --> 01:16:58,199
Um, wow. Okay. Uh, this the original article here

1067
01:16:53,840 --> 01:16:58,199
is from the next webb.com.

1068
01:16:58,239 --> 01:17:05,120
Apparently, you can delete yourself from the internet by pressing this button.

1069
01:17:03,520 --> 01:17:11,040
Instantly get a list of your accounts matched with direct links to delete

1070
01:17:06,800 --> 01:17:14,080
them. Sign in with Google. Um, hey,

1071
01:17:11,040 --> 01:17:16,320
another Lionus.

1072
01:17:14,080 --> 01:17:22,880
Nice. There you go. I think it's Linus in Sweden. So yeah,

1073
01:17:20,560 --> 01:17:26,080
he's Swedish just like all the other links. That would be kind of cool

1074
01:17:24,239 --> 01:17:31,920
actually because you could get the links for like everything and not necessarily

1075
01:17:28,960 --> 01:17:34,880
click all of them. Yeah. So you log in with your Google account. It scans for

1076
01:17:33,360 --> 01:17:38,480
apps and services you've created account for. Every account it finds gets paired

1077
01:17:36,800 --> 01:17:41,199
with an easy delete link pointing to the unsubscribe page for that service.

1078
01:17:39,840 --> 01:17:44,159
Within a few clicks, you can be freed from it. Sounds great in theory, but I

1079
01:17:42,960 --> 01:17:49,840
haven't actually tried it. So there you go. Speaking of things that sound great in theory, Valve introducing the Steam

1080
01:17:48,239 --> 01:17:54,239
Awards. Uh, this was originally posted by Arcane

1081
01:17:51,760 --> 01:17:58,480
Kitten on the forum. There we go. Okay. Coming this December.

1082
01:17:56,800 --> 01:18:03,760
Nominated in the following categories. The test of time award, which presumably

1083
01:18:00,960 --> 01:18:07,120
will be won by Civilization 2, the I'm not crying, there's something in my eye

1084
01:18:05,280 --> 01:18:11,199
award, the just five more minutes award, the wo dude award. Okay. The villain

1085
01:18:09,360 --> 01:18:16,480
most in need of a hug award. The game with these are really tryh hard awards.

1086
01:18:13,040 --> 01:18:19,679
Wow. Yeah. The best use of a farm animal

1087
01:18:16,480 --> 01:18:21,360
award. Can Goat Simulator win? I guess.

1088
01:18:19,679 --> 01:18:26,760
I mean, is that just supposed to be the goat simulator? The we didn't think of

1089
01:18:23,360 --> 01:18:26,760
everything award.

1090
01:18:27,120 --> 01:18:34,960
Um, it's kind of cringe, actually.

1091
01:18:33,520 --> 01:18:39,120
Well, I'm sure someone's having fun with it. Um, all right. Thanks for watching

1092
01:18:37,440 --> 01:18:43,440
the WAN Show. I'm sure someone had fun with that, too. We will see you again

1093
01:18:41,040 --> 01:18:50,400
next week. Next, same bat time, same bat channel. Bye.

1094
01:18:46,400 --> 01:18:51,920
Bye. Oh, whoops.

1095
01:18:50,400 --> 01:18:56,159
Oh, the we didn't think of everything award is apparently No Man's Sky, but I

1096
01:18:54,560 --> 01:18:59,760
still think that's inaccurate because that would be more We didn't think of

1097
01:18:57,600 --> 01:19:04,560
anything. Yeah. And we didn't do it either. Yeah. Okay. Well, now we're all

1098
01:19:03,199 --> 01:19:09,239
page. I guess we thought about a lot of stuff. Yeah. And then stopped there.

1099
01:19:09,679 --> 01:19:15,600
We had a bunch of ideas, but a bunch of people told us

1100
01:19:13,840 --> 01:19:20,340
that we were like, you know what, those are good ideas.

1101
01:19:17,920 --> 01:19:23,440
We contemplated that.

1102
01:19:23,440 --> 01:19:28,360
Wow. Why is the intro like

1103
01:19:28,640 --> 01:19:39,199
Why is my life? Why does nothing work? Why?

1104
01:19:36,239 --> 01:19:39,199
Oh my god.
