1
00:00:00,080 --> 00:00:05,600
that feeling where you're about to go live and broadcast to like thousands of

2
00:00:03,520 --> 00:00:09,120
people, but like you're missing something. Something's not quite right.

3
00:00:07,359 --> 00:00:15,040
Like every single time we host the W show. Um,

4
00:00:12,480 --> 00:00:20,480
yeah. Okay. I guess that that could be cuz there's like there's there's always

5
00:00:16,880 --> 00:00:22,560
the Okay, something's probably wrong.

6
00:00:20,480 --> 00:00:27,279
No, we did a pre-show today. There's nothing wrong. Everything is fine.

7
00:00:25,840 --> 00:00:31,679
I'm not hormonal right now. We didn't test any of the scenes.

8
00:00:29,439 --> 00:00:33,760
Uh, that's okay. Most of them are the same. And

9
00:00:32,480 --> 00:00:36,880
you didn't test your laptops. Um, uh, no, we tested the laptop.

10
00:00:35,920 --> 00:00:40,800
Oh, we did? Yeah. Okay. Yeah, I tested it while you weren't looking. Boom.

11
00:00:39,040 --> 00:00:44,640
I test all kinds of things while you're not looking. That's awkward.

12
00:00:42,960 --> 00:00:49,440
Do you test poll results while I'm not looking? Poll results? No, we're not going to get

13
00:00:47,280 --> 00:00:55,120
into that yet. I have a whole I have a whole thing I have a whole thing on

14
00:00:52,160 --> 00:01:02,719
that. Speaking of a whole thing on stuff, um,

15
00:00:57,840 --> 00:01:04,479
hold on a second. So, the WAN Show

16
00:01:02,719 --> 00:01:12,640
Soundcloud, I'm going to try and find it, but we actually have a WAN Show

17
00:01:08,159 --> 00:01:15,360
podcast feed now. So, Teran, uh, Taran

18
00:01:12,640 --> 00:01:19,600
set it up and I don't know where the email is about it. And apparently, you

19
00:01:16,960 --> 00:01:22,640
can't just Google podcast. Hey, uh, Taran,

20
00:01:21,280 --> 00:01:27,119
can you send me the link to the SoundCloud thing so I can share it with

21
00:01:24,400 --> 00:01:30,479
the peeps? Thank you.

22
00:01:29,520 --> 00:01:33,600
Thewan show. Oh, we got it.

23
00:01:33,040 --> 00:01:39,280
Got it. Yep. Okay, so guys, it's

24
00:01:36,479 --> 00:01:44,960
soundcloud.comthewanhow. I don't think we are quite caught up yet

25
00:01:43,600 --> 00:01:50,399
because we don't really have like a smooth procedure for

26
00:01:48,000 --> 00:01:55,840
taking the video feed which is a stupid LV file with the desync audio and the

27
00:01:53,759 --> 00:02:02,399
all that kind of stuff. But uh there you go guys. All the entire history of the

28
00:01:58,880 --> 00:02:04,960
WAN Show has been almost almost has been

29
00:02:02,399 --> 00:02:09,520
archived on Soundcloud. You can download it as a podcast. Listen to it in the car

30
00:02:07,600 --> 00:02:12,400
or wherever else people listen to podcasts. I've never been much of a

31
00:02:11,039 --> 00:02:15,520
podcast listener myself, but not even almost. This isn't into 2014

32
00:02:14,239 --> 00:02:20,800
yet. October 11th. Well, hold on a second. Are you sure

33
00:02:18,239 --> 00:02:22,879
it's not just like later on or something?

34
00:02:21,599 --> 00:02:27,840
I looked down there. It went further back. August 2013. July 2013. Well, whatever,

35
00:02:26,400 --> 00:02:34,640
guys. We'll get this We'll get this all caught up for you and everything will be all good and fine and dandy. So, all

36
00:02:32,400 --> 00:02:37,680
right. Let's get into our first real topic, shall we? Oh, no. We have to do

37
00:02:36,319 --> 00:02:41,680
our introductory topics, which unfortunately these guys already saw,

38
00:02:40,080 --> 00:02:47,360
which is a real shame because we accidentally streamed while we were

39
00:02:43,360 --> 00:02:48,800
creating our YouTube intro instead of um

40
00:02:47,360 --> 00:02:52,800
recording that locally and then uploading it. So, uh why don't we pick

41
00:02:51,040 --> 00:02:59,120
different highlights for the folks here? Right now, ASUS has demonstrated a VRAMm

42
00:02:56,959 --> 00:03:03,599
defroster feature. So, you're actually going to have a separate plug on your

43
00:03:00,560 --> 00:03:05,599
graphics card dedicated to heating up

44
00:03:03,599 --> 00:03:07,920
your memory, which sounds bad, but it actually makes

45
00:03:07,599 --> 00:03:13,760
sense. Yeah, we'll explain that later. Also, Intel has a new Thunderbolt controller

46
00:03:11,680 --> 00:03:20,319
that they are working on that should be able to derive two 4K displays off of a

47
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:23,760
single connector. They should be wearing my Holy Balls shirt, not my professional

48
00:03:22,319 --> 00:03:29,519
unboxer shirt, because that's a big deal. It is actually. What else we got? Um, Google is is going

49
00:03:27,280 --> 00:03:32,400
to be ending forcing Google+ integration towards everyone. And there's more

50
00:03:30,959 --> 00:03:38,799
details on that later. Yeah, that's huge. And then Facebook has actually finally

51
00:03:35,840 --> 00:03:41,760
been approved to actually buy Oculus. So, yeah, that'll be a short topic, but

52
00:03:40,720 --> 00:03:45,519
we'll talk about that later. All right, so without further ado, intro

53
00:03:44,000 --> 00:03:49,120
time. I really hope there's music. I didn't test it.

54
00:03:49,120 --> 00:03:53,480
All right, there's music.

55
00:03:59,200 --> 00:04:05,239
You know, I saw there was a poll about whether there would be music or whether I'd have to sing.

56
00:04:07,200 --> 00:04:11,920
This is what happens when people let me see the polls ahead of time. So, never

57
00:04:10,400 --> 00:04:15,840
show me your poll. All right. So, Hotspot Shield is one of our sponsors

58
00:04:14,080 --> 00:04:19,519

61
00:04:25,759 --> 00:04:35,280
title sponsors, you can see powered by Seuss G750 JZ is a Suss with the, as you

62
00:04:32,160 --> 00:04:36,240
may or may not have guessed, G750 Jay-Z

63
00:04:35,280 --> 00:04:40,880
gaming laptops. Most gangster of all laptops. This Yeah. Yeah. Well, it kind of it

64
00:04:40,000 --> 00:04:45,040
kind of went that way. Drop the Jay-Z thing.

65
00:04:43,840 --> 00:04:49,840
You're going to keep You know what's even funny is I conceded I made your

66
00:04:47,840 --> 00:04:53,360
joke. I made your joke in the video thumbnail of the actual review of the

67
00:04:51,600 --> 00:04:56,720
laptop. And I figured that would get you to stop

68
00:04:55,919 --> 00:05:01,040
making the joke. No, the joke isn't played out for you. The

69
00:04:59,360 --> 00:05:05,199
joke is just going to carry on until eternity. All right. Well, that's that's probably it.

70
00:05:03,120 --> 00:05:09,039
That's fine. That makes me very, very pleased. So, thank you, ASUS Sand

71
00:05:07,600 --> 00:05:12,720
Hotspot Shield for sponsoring the show today. Let's get things going. Getting

72
00:05:10,960 --> 00:05:14,720
to our first topic here. What should we get started with? Why don't we start at

73
00:05:14,320 --> 00:05:20,240
the top? Let's start at the top and work our way to the bottom, if you know what I mean.

74
00:05:18,720 --> 00:05:24,880
I didn't need it, if you know what I mean. That was fine.

75
00:05:22,240 --> 00:05:26,880
If you know what I mean. You're all fine.

76
00:05:26,080 --> 00:05:32,160
Oh man. Hitting on the entire audience one step

77
00:05:29,199 --> 00:05:39,120
at a time. So, okay guys, we've got a fantastic topic here. This was posted by

78
00:05:35,199 --> 00:05:41,280
Kaca Day G DJ DG whatever it happens to

79
00:05:39,120 --> 00:05:44,720
be. What is that? Oh, I see it. No, no, it's okay.

80
00:05:42,160 --> 00:05:52,160
This needs to be removed. There we go. Um, so this is an ASUS ROG article that

81
00:05:50,960 --> 00:05:58,240
What are you doing? I'm modding certain people. Don't worry about it. Keep going.

82
00:05:54,720 --> 00:06:02,960
Oh, okay. You can mod people. I've heard

83
00:05:58,240 --> 00:06:04,479
of computer modding and car modding.

84
00:06:02,960 --> 00:06:07,919
Well, there's body mods, right? Body mods. Yeah. Like tattoos and piercings.

85
00:06:07,120 --> 00:06:14,240
Do you have any? No. I guess I would have known. You actually probably would have at this

86
00:06:11,600 --> 00:06:22,720
point. So, there's an article on ASUS ROG that outlines why a graphics card

87
00:06:18,160 --> 00:06:25,199
could ever want a separate heater module

88
00:06:22,720 --> 00:06:30,000
for the memory. So, this is called their matrix memory defroster. And if you look

89
00:06:28,560 --> 00:06:34,800
at the page you're supporting, I don't care. Go. I don't care. Go away,

90
00:06:32,880 --> 00:06:39,759
Internet Explorer. Okay. So, it shows you a graphics card that's being cooled

91
00:06:37,039 --> 00:06:43,520
by presumably liquid nitrogen or okay, looks like liquid nitrogen since there's

92
00:06:41,199 --> 00:06:49,520
a uh a canister here. So, being cooled by liquid nitrogen and it shows how this

93
00:06:46,880 --> 00:06:54,800
frost can accumulate on the back of the card. Now, memory can suffer from

94
00:06:51,919 --> 00:06:59,440
certain issues like uh cold bugs in much the same way that processors can. So,

95
00:06:57,039 --> 00:07:05,440
what this does is it actually keeps the memory at a temperature that isn't so

96
00:07:03,039 --> 00:07:08,560
cold that it bugs out, but is still cold enough that you're going to get better

97
00:07:06,560 --> 00:07:14,240
overclocking out of it. And it's just one less thing for pro overclockers to

98
00:07:11,759 --> 00:07:19,840
worry about. I think my comment on this uh back when I first saw it is probably,

99
00:07:16,960 --> 00:07:23,360
you know, about as as right as anything could ever be, just like anything I say.

100
00:07:21,599 --> 00:07:26,720
I'm just kidding. I I can be wrong about all kinds of things. In fact, I was

101
00:07:25,120 --> 00:07:31,440
wrong about something on the show last week, and I I owe an apology to someone

102
00:07:29,280 --> 00:07:37,199
that I was wrong about something about um GPU versus CPU, actual total thermal

103
00:07:35,360 --> 00:07:41,840
output. I was going based on temperature, not based on the actual

104
00:07:39,440 --> 00:07:45,680
thermal output. So, GPUs, I have been informed, although we're probably going

105
00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:49,680
to just test it at some point, even though I I believe them. I believe them.

106
00:07:47,759 --> 00:07:52,639
So GPUs just have lower thermal density which means their temperatures are lower

107
00:07:51,280 --> 00:07:57,360
even though the thermal output is actually quite high. So there you have

108
00:07:54,960 --> 00:08:00,319
it. I can be wrong about things and I don't even remember what I'm talking

109
00:07:58,479 --> 00:08:05,840
about anymore. Right. So the comment I made at the time was okay. So ASUS has

110
00:08:03,199 --> 00:08:11,599
developed a feature for their ROG class cards that is going to have probably

111
00:08:09,599 --> 00:08:16,000
thousands of people who know what it is and what it does and and why it exists.

112
00:08:13,680 --> 00:08:20,000
It's going to have maybe hundreds of people who care and then it's going to

113
00:08:17,759 --> 00:08:25,599
have maybe dozens of people who are actually going to use it. But you know

114
00:08:22,479 --> 00:08:27,120
what? If you, you know,

115
00:08:25,599 --> 00:08:32,479
it's easy to just throw up your hands and say, "Okay, it's impossible to

116
00:08:29,120 --> 00:08:34,399
innovate on graphics cards. It's hard to

117
00:08:32,479 --> 00:08:38,399
keep trying to find ways to push the envelope." And without, you know, guys

118
00:08:36,560 --> 00:08:43,519
like ASUS building in features like this, we wouldn't have things like

119
00:08:40,479 --> 00:08:45,279
built-in voltage checkpoints to actually

120
00:08:43,519 --> 00:08:48,640
monitor the voltage of your GPU. Something that is a very cool diagnostic

121
00:08:47,360 --> 00:08:52,880
tool when you're overclocking and like very usable even if you're not doing L2 cooling.

122
00:08:51,440 --> 00:08:56,480
You can you can buy a multimeter for like 20 bucks at Canadian Tire if you're

123
00:08:54,880 --> 00:09:01,920
Canadian. Um or wherever you buy those things.

124
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:02,880
American Tire.

125
00:09:01,920 --> 00:09:07,760
Walmart. Yes, probably. Yeah, that's fine. Uh, so you can buy a multimeter on the cheap and

126
00:09:06,080 --> 00:09:11,519
then it can really help you diagnose whether that voltage slider is actually

127
00:09:09,360 --> 00:09:14,480
doing anything, whether your card overvolts or undervolts. So all this

128
00:09:13,120 --> 00:09:18,800
stuff's really great. So without these kinds of innovations that might seem

129
00:09:16,160 --> 00:09:22,880
useless one by one, we wouldn't have the great graphics cards that we have today.

130
00:09:20,480 --> 00:09:27,200
So kudos to ASUS for thinking outside the box on this one. And I guess that's

131
00:09:25,760 --> 00:09:31,760
all I pretty much have to say about that. What's our next topic? Because I'm

132
00:09:29,680 --> 00:09:35,040
trying to do a thing here. Uh, sorry. I was also trying to do a

133
00:09:33,680 --> 00:09:40,320
thing. I will find a next topic though. The next topic is Supreme Court decides

134
00:09:37,120 --> 00:09:43,680
on the future of TV featuring Ario.

135
00:09:40,320 --> 00:09:45,440
Oh, this is this is cray cray.

136
00:09:43,680 --> 00:09:50,160
Is it Ario or Arrow? Ario, I would guess. Sure. Okay.

137
00:09:47,279 --> 00:09:59,440
All right. So, this is actually probably the biggest topic of the day. So, the

138
00:09:53,200 --> 00:10:02,000
way that Ario works is by Okay, by it

139
00:09:59,440 --> 00:10:04,880
all depends on how you word it. So original article here is from

140
00:10:03,040 --> 00:10:09,200
washingtonpost.com. Although there was another one that was actually uh quite

141
00:10:07,200 --> 00:10:12,000
helpful when I was when I was reading up on this. Yeah. From the Guardian. And

142
00:10:10,640 --> 00:10:20,000
there was another one I was reading. And another one I was reading that I mean the information about this is hard to

143
00:10:16,640 --> 00:10:22,399
find from an unbiased source because

144
00:10:20,000 --> 00:10:28,480
this is a topic that is extremely polarizing. So let's start with how

145
00:10:25,120 --> 00:10:30,880
works. What it does is it takes OTAA TV

146
00:10:28,480 --> 00:10:36,640
signals. So, these are just broadcast TV signals that anyone with, you know, a

147
00:10:34,640 --> 00:10:41,120
duck, a hamster, a piece of toast, and most importantly, an antenna and a

148
00:10:38,720 --> 00:10:44,959
television, especially those last two. Yeah. And then anyone with an antenna

149
00:10:42,800 --> 00:10:49,440
and a television can tune into these signals and watch TV.

150
00:10:47,600 --> 00:10:54,640
So, all the TV that I had when I was a kid. Yes. So, overthe-air television. What

151
00:10:52,160 --> 00:11:02,079
ARIO does is it takes overthe-air television, lets you subscribe,

152
00:10:58,399 --> 00:11:05,279
rent an antenna in their array of

153
00:11:02,079 --> 00:11:07,440
antennas, rent because it's not

154
00:11:05,279 --> 00:11:12,480
subscription, they don't Okay, they let you rent an antenna in their antenna

155
00:11:09,440 --> 00:11:16,000
array, rent cloud storage space, and

156
00:11:12,480 --> 00:11:18,000
then it allows you to tune in to OTAA

157
00:11:16,000 --> 00:11:26,320
broadcasts through your internet connection and even use their um their

158
00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:28,880
rentable storage space as a PVR or DVR

159
00:11:26,320 --> 00:11:34,720
whatever video recorder without with a P with a D I don't care. So

160
00:11:32,160 --> 00:11:38,320
what the Okay, so the issue here it's hard to not it's hard to not say

161
00:11:36,560 --> 00:11:42,320
things that are worded as if they come off negatively or positively.

162
00:11:40,320 --> 00:11:48,240
Yeah. So, the issue is that other broadcasters

163
00:11:45,600 --> 00:11:53,279
are alleging that ARO is no different from cable and satellite firms that are

164
00:11:50,560 --> 00:11:58,720
required to pay fees to rebroadcast their shows. What ARIO is arguing is

165
00:11:56,160 --> 00:12:03,279
that a private broadcast, and this is this is like 40year-old rulings that

166
00:12:01,360 --> 00:12:09,120
they're going back to here, that a private broadcast is not the same as a

167
00:12:06,480 --> 00:12:15,200
public broadcast. because it's an individual user accessing content that

168
00:12:12,240 --> 00:12:18,880
they would have otherwise had if they just got an antenna and hooked up a DVR.

169
00:12:17,760 --> 00:12:24,320
Like they're not doing anything they couldn't have otherwise done there. It's

170
00:12:21,279 --> 00:12:25,600
so it's a private broadcast. So I I

171
00:12:24,320 --> 00:12:28,959
don't remember if that sentence made any sense. You know what guys, I have slept so little this week like even less than

172
00:12:28,639 --> 00:12:34,079
usual. And this topic is very convoluted and awkward and

173
00:12:32,399 --> 00:12:39,680
and the topic is convoluted. Whereas what the broadcasters are saying is that

174
00:12:36,480 --> 00:12:42,880
Ariel is taking copyrighted material and

175
00:12:39,680 --> 00:12:46,079
profiting off of it without paying

176
00:12:42,880 --> 00:12:48,880
anyone any fees. So they're just taking

177
00:12:46,079 --> 00:12:52,079
money and profiting off of it. And then advocacy groups for the other side are

178
00:12:50,720 --> 00:12:59,040
saying, "Well, hold on just a minute. Why should they be paying for it anyway? There's already commercials on it." So

179
00:12:56,320 --> 00:13:02,880
you guys, so start firing back at the broadcasters. You guys are just trying

180
00:13:00,560 --> 00:13:08,079
to maintain your whole double dipping business model and squash a potential

181
00:13:05,839 --> 00:13:13,200
competitor who really all they're doing is enabling consumers to use the

182
00:13:10,560 --> 00:13:17,920
technology or to use the content that is already there. Use the technology they

183
00:13:15,920 --> 00:13:21,120
have to access content that is already there and already accessible to them.

184
00:13:19,440 --> 00:13:25,839
One thing that was missing from both this Washington Post article and the

185
00:13:23,279 --> 00:13:29,600
other one that we're referring to here was actually posted by a commenter on

186
00:13:28,160 --> 00:13:33,120
one of the other articles I was reading about this who said, "Well, hold on a

187
00:13:31,600 --> 00:13:37,920
second. Something people are kind of missing here is that Ariel only allows

188
00:13:35,760 --> 00:13:43,600
you to subscribe within your own catchment area." So you you actually

189
00:13:40,240 --> 00:13:46,000
can't subscribe to Ario in, you know,

190
00:13:43,600 --> 00:13:50,800
New York if you're in Florida, for example. you you have to subscribe and

191
00:13:48,079 --> 00:13:54,399
of like anything there are workarounds and actually that's another big thing is

192
00:13:52,800 --> 00:14:00,560
uh is that even on the dock? I think it is that Hulu is shutting down VPN users.

193
00:13:58,720 --> 00:14:03,680
If it's not just throw a note in there and we'll we'll make sure we talk about

194
00:14:01,920 --> 00:14:08,560
that later. But there are of course ways to circumvent it. But the way that it's

195
00:14:05,680 --> 00:14:13,839
supposed to work is just as a way for you to access the OTAA content without

196
00:14:11,920 --> 00:14:19,120
subscribing to an expensive cable package that contains a lot of stuff

197
00:14:15,680 --> 00:14:21,279
that you likely don't care about.

198
00:14:19,120 --> 00:14:25,279
So, I see both sides of this one. So, that

199
00:14:23,199 --> 00:14:28,480
was the whole me struggling through the the explanation of what's going on. I

200
00:14:27,040 --> 00:14:32,399
hope you guys kind of get it. Let me know if you don't. Post in the Twitch

201
00:14:30,480 --> 00:14:36,240
chat if if it doesn't if what I said didn't make any sense. But I'll give

202
00:14:34,399 --> 00:14:41,920
sort of my two cents on both sides of this. On the one hand, if you're

203
00:14:38,880 --> 00:14:44,880
creating premium content and someone is

204
00:14:41,920 --> 00:14:49,600
profiting off of the distribution of it, they are effectively undercutting the

205
00:14:47,040 --> 00:14:53,600
distribution partners who are paying you. And I can understand why you're

206
00:14:51,920 --> 00:14:58,720
going after someone who's pursuing that model. Uh, one of the justices that's um

207
00:14:57,360 --> 00:15:02,800
I don't think they're actually going to be involved in the case, but one of the

208
00:15:01,120 --> 00:15:07,680
one of the US justices that has commented on the situation said that

209
00:15:05,279 --> 00:15:13,279
looking through Ario's business model, they seem to be it seems to be

210
00:15:10,000 --> 00:15:16,720
structured entirely to circumvent the

211
00:15:13,279 --> 00:15:18,800
existing laws and that the actual the

212
00:15:16,720 --> 00:15:21,760
essence of what they're doing is just flat outright wrong. And I'm

213
00:15:20,320 --> 00:15:26,959
paraphrasing a little bit here because I can't find the quote right now, but I

214
00:15:24,399 --> 00:15:32,560
don't necessarily I I see it from Ariel's side as well because what

215
00:15:29,600 --> 00:15:37,199
they're doing is just allowing people to use 21st century technology that they

216
00:15:35,279 --> 00:15:40,880
have. And I mean, quite frankly, you're you're already going to be helping out

217
00:15:38,959 --> 00:15:45,680
your local cable provider by paying for an internet subscription anyway. So,

218
00:15:43,279 --> 00:15:51,279
they're using technology that we have to just do something that already exists

219
00:15:47,600 --> 00:15:51,279
and do it a little bit better.

220
00:15:51,920 --> 00:15:56,959
One interesting thing that someone has brought up is that you can rig this up

221
00:15:56,000 --> 00:16:02,639
yourself. Yes. And that's that's the whole defense

222
00:15:59,600 --> 00:16:05,040
here for Ario is that this is something

223
00:16:02,639 --> 00:16:08,959
you can do yourself. Yeah. It's just that they're making it

224
00:16:06,880 --> 00:16:12,399
accessible and they're charging people a convenience fee.

225
00:16:09,920 --> 00:16:19,360
Yeah. Now, if they were if what they were doing was they were tuning into

226
00:16:14,880 --> 00:16:22,399
OTAA and then they were um and then they

227
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:25,440
were like retransmitting

228
00:16:22,399 --> 00:16:28,160
it over the the airwaves or if they had

229
00:16:25,440 --> 00:16:33,199
um a site I guess that you that you went on to and then anyone like a site like

230
00:16:30,399 --> 00:16:37,839
twitch.tv, okay, where anyone can tune into their rebroadcast. That would be a

231
00:16:35,759 --> 00:16:42,880
public rebroadcast. But the way that it's structured is that antenna, you're

232
00:16:41,120 --> 00:16:45,600
you're renting it, you're leasing it, you're you're whatever. I guess if you

233
00:16:44,480 --> 00:16:51,199
really wanted to, you could buy an antenna, but then you'd just be doing it yourself. But like instead of buying it,

234
00:16:48,639 --> 00:16:56,880
you are renting it. And that antenna is just for you. So they're not

235
00:16:53,920 --> 00:16:59,759
rebroadcasting it publicly. I think they're going to lose.

236
00:16:58,240 --> 00:17:03,600
I think so, too. But it's a really interesting argument. I think they're

237
00:17:01,440 --> 00:17:10,319
going to lose, but I think at the end of the day, this is just going to be

238
00:17:05,919 --> 00:17:14,000
whack-a-ole where someone else will find

239
00:17:10,319 --> 00:17:16,319
a similar loophole and the conventional

240
00:17:14,000 --> 00:17:20,880
media guys are just going to have to keep knocking these little guys down one

241
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:31,120
at a time and something will get through. I mean, the thing here is that Ariel has Sorry,

242
00:17:27,199 --> 00:17:34,080
Ariel. Yeah, sorry. Really tired. Ariel

243
00:17:31,120 --> 00:17:37,120
has already won a couple of cases in lower courts. This is the first time

244
00:17:35,760 --> 00:17:44,720
it's going to the Supreme Court. They've already won a couple. They lost one. They lost the most recent one. So, this

245
00:17:42,000 --> 00:17:48,880
really could go either way. And I I think according to the letter of the

246
00:17:46,320 --> 00:17:51,919
law, Ariel is probably right currently. Yes. But like what I've been

247
00:17:50,559 --> 00:17:55,840
reading on some of what the justices have been saying is they might need to

248
00:17:54,000 --> 00:17:58,880
kind of fix things. This can't happen because when they wrote that law,

249
00:17:57,520 --> 00:18:04,960
it was a long time ago. That was a long time ago and they didn't expect stuff like this to be able to happen.

250
00:18:03,120 --> 00:18:10,000
So now that it can happen, maybe the laws have to change, which is annoying

251
00:18:07,200 --> 00:18:13,120
to preempt to like after the fact change a law. I hate doing that with things

252
00:18:11,679 --> 00:18:16,960
like the COC on the forum and stuff because it's really annoying. But

253
00:18:14,880 --> 00:18:22,000
but the thing about it is that laws need to adapt. I mean, how would you make a

254
00:18:19,520 --> 00:18:23,840
law about cyber crime 50 years ago when it doesn't exist?

255
00:18:22,880 --> 00:18:33,600
When it doesn't exist. Yeah. you know how. So I I totally

256
00:18:28,559 --> 00:18:35,440
understand the issue here because

257
00:18:33,600 --> 00:18:39,840
the entire business model of creating this content is based on getting

258
00:18:37,919 --> 00:18:45,200
kickbacks from the distributors of the content. I understand that. But on the

259
00:18:42,799 --> 00:18:50,160
other hand, I understand the argument that that system is fundamentally broken

260
00:18:48,400 --> 00:18:53,280
right now and something needs to shake it up. I don't know if Ario is going to

261
00:18:51,600 --> 00:18:58,000
be the thing that shakes it up, but what I do know is that something

262
00:18:55,360 --> 00:19:04,799
will have to shake it up because it's a problem. I mean, it's gotten to

263
00:19:00,240 --> 00:19:07,679
the point where I will not pay to watch

264
00:19:04,799 --> 00:19:10,720
a hockey game because for me to pay to watch a hockey game, and I just don't

265
00:19:09,039 --> 00:19:15,280
watch them. That's that's the solution for me. because for me to pay to watch a

266
00:19:12,960 --> 00:19:19,280
hockey game, I have to buy a cable TV subscription that includes a bunch of

267
00:19:16,720 --> 00:19:22,400
crap I don't care about and I have to pay a whole whack ton of

268
00:19:21,039 --> 00:19:25,280
money for it. And I'm kind of sitting here going, "No, I refuse. I won't do

269
00:19:24,480 --> 00:19:30,080
it." For for big events like uh the Super

270
00:19:27,520 --> 00:19:35,360
Bowl and all that kind of stuff, we we just we all my friends pack up because

271
00:19:32,240 --> 00:19:36,960
we all don't have cable TV. None of us.

272
00:19:35,360 --> 00:19:41,039
And we all go to my parents. Well, it's funny because everyone talks about cord

273
00:19:38,400 --> 00:19:45,120
cutters, but there's a whole other the like the entire the group of people my

274
00:19:42,720 --> 00:19:49,280
age are I I heard the term cord nevers and I really liked it because the only

275
00:19:47,520 --> 00:19:53,039
time I've ever had a cable TV subscription that I've well I was going

276
00:19:51,280 --> 00:19:56,240
to say that I have paid for was when they gave me a free trial with my

277
00:19:54,480 --> 00:19:59,600
internet that I didn't pay for and then canceled as soon as I had to pay for it.

278
00:19:57,760 --> 00:20:02,559
I never even took the free trial. It was kind of handy. I don't even want it.

279
00:20:01,280 --> 00:20:06,640
It was playoffs. That makes sense. I took the free trial and I was like,

280
00:20:04,640 --> 00:20:09,200
"Oh, it was great." By the time this is over, I don't have any hockey to watch

281
00:20:08,240 --> 00:20:12,960
anyway. Yeah, exactly. My thing was I I was

282
00:20:11,360 --> 00:20:15,360
scared because I just assumed that after the free trial, it was just going to start billing me.

283
00:20:14,720 --> 00:20:19,600
Yeah, it does. Yeah. And I was going to school at the time and I was like, I'm going to forget about this and I'm going to get a bill

284
00:20:18,720 --> 00:20:23,919
and I'm not going to be able to afford it and it's going to be bad. No, I just I just set up a Google

285
00:20:21,919 --> 00:20:28,720
calendar reminder and then I just I the the Shaw office is actually between mine

286
00:20:26,880 --> 00:20:31,840
and my in-laws house. So, I just grabbed the box, dropped it off there. I'm like,

287
00:20:30,000 --> 00:20:35,760
"Yeah, we're done." Like, do you still want your internet?

288
00:20:33,120 --> 00:20:38,240
Yeah. Yeah, I'm good with the internet. Thanks for the trial, though.

289
00:20:36,799 --> 00:20:42,320
So, I mean, for me, the fundamental problem here is that the is that the the

290
00:20:40,559 --> 00:20:48,640
providers, the cable providers in particular, can't decide how they want

291
00:20:45,200 --> 00:20:51,200
this to work. Okay. When it comes to TV,

292
00:20:48,640 --> 00:20:55,919
they want us to pay for large all you can eat packages

293
00:20:53,200 --> 00:21:00,480
and then just give us whatever we whatever we could possibly want. And

294
00:20:58,159 --> 00:21:04,240
then when it comes to cell phone and internet, by the way, in Canada anyway,

295
00:21:02,480 --> 00:21:08,080
and I know in a lot of places there's a lot of overlap between TV, cell phone,

296
00:21:06,320 --> 00:21:12,080
and internet. So, so when it comes to cell phone and internet, oh well, hold

297
00:21:10,240 --> 00:21:16,159
on a second. We want more of a pay as you go type model here. And you you pay

298
00:21:14,240 --> 00:21:20,480
for the things you use. And I'm kind of sitting here going, "Okay, you know

299
00:21:17,440 --> 00:21:22,000
what? I get it either way. Okay, you

300
00:21:20,480 --> 00:21:26,880
want to you want to package things. You want to have a flat rate sort of fee.

301
00:21:24,720 --> 00:21:30,240
Okay, I get it. I won't I'm not going to subscribe because I don't care about

302
00:21:28,080 --> 00:21:34,480
that stuff. But I understand your point. Okay, you want me to pay per usage

303
00:21:32,559 --> 00:21:38,559
because there's a certain amount of congestion on a network or whatever

304
00:21:36,000 --> 00:21:42,320
else. You want to minimize that. I get that. But you got to make up your mind.

305
00:21:40,720 --> 00:21:46,320
You can't be like, "Oh, well, when it suits us, you can pay as you go, and

306
00:21:44,080 --> 00:21:49,520
when it doesn't suit us, then we we want you to take the the whole thing."

307
00:21:47,760 --> 00:21:54,400
saying, "You got to give me options here because that just that does not that

308
00:21:52,159 --> 00:22:00,960
does not fly for me." Cuz I would have no problem paying for TV if I could say,

309
00:21:56,799 --> 00:22:05,200
"Okay, I want Sports Net, TSN,

310
00:22:00,960 --> 00:22:08,320
and like I don't know, Cartoon Network.

311
00:22:05,200 --> 00:22:09,360
It's like it I remember when when my

312
00:22:08,320 --> 00:22:14,559
parents were actually somewhat interested in getting a cable connection way back in the day and we went through

313
00:22:12,320 --> 00:22:19,039
the show catalog and I was like I want that one and maybe that one and then I'm

314
00:22:18,320 --> 00:22:23,600
done. Yep. So I don't care about like any of that.

315
00:22:22,320 --> 00:22:26,240
And my dad, my brother and I had overlaps on all of those and then that

316
00:22:25,520 --> 00:22:30,559
was about it. Right. And you guys never did end up getting one, did you?

317
00:22:29,039 --> 00:22:36,400
I think we had one while my grandpa was here and then I think it was gone rightly after.

318
00:22:35,120 --> 00:22:40,720
And then that's about it. All right. So, why don't we talk about your back door here?

319
00:22:39,039 --> 00:22:46,480
Oh, wow. It's not my back door. Well, it's a back door. It's many people's back doors.

320
00:22:43,120 --> 00:22:49,280
All right. Cuz that makes it better.

321
00:22:46,480 --> 00:22:52,080
So, um, a security researcher has found that there was a back door at DSL

322
00:22:50,799 --> 00:22:56,559
routers that was found a little while ago. I think like a month ago or something. And then there was a path.

323
00:22:55,200 --> 00:23:01,679
You should talk about what the back door does. So, the back door allows you to I was

324
00:22:58,960 --> 00:23:04,880
getting into that after the cover up and then I was going to tell them what that

325
00:23:03,039 --> 00:23:10,000
was. So essentially there was there was then a patch which fixed the problem.

326
00:23:07,919 --> 00:23:13,679
The same guy then found that the patch was just kind of a cover up and it

327
00:23:11,760 --> 00:23:17,760
couldn't be removed very easily. So what it does is it allows you administrative

328
00:23:15,919 --> 00:23:22,559
access to the router. So all administrative controls you can control.

329
00:23:19,440 --> 00:23:24,559
So GG router um you can flash lights,

330
00:23:22,559 --> 00:23:28,080
you can do you can see packets, you can do all that kind of stuff. It's pretty

331
00:23:26,640 --> 00:23:32,000
aggressive. The way that the secret is removed is just literally by sending a

332
00:23:29,840 --> 00:23:35,919
knock. That knock though is in an Ethernet packet. So like a raw data

333
00:23:34,400 --> 00:23:40,640
Ethernet packet. So it can only be sent from inside the network or from an ISP.

334
00:23:38,480 --> 00:23:46,960
So this scares people because of NSA's level stuff. Um it's on 25 rout 24

335
00:23:45,360 --> 00:23:52,480
models of different routers it has been found on so far ranging from I believe

336
00:23:49,919 --> 00:23:58,559
like Lynxys and Cisco so both levels there and Netgear different routers. But

337
00:23:56,159 --> 00:24:02,480
then this is one guy, so I fully expect it could be more than that because the

338
00:24:00,320 --> 00:24:08,799
problem is actually based around a piece of firmware that they all share. Um,

339
00:24:06,240 --> 00:24:12,320
yeah, it gives it it gives them root shell access for people that knows what

340
00:24:10,480 --> 00:24:16,480
that really means. So this is kind of scary just because everything in this

341
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:19,440
form is scary right now um because of like what the NSA was doing. What were

342
00:24:17,760 --> 00:24:23,840
they up to last week, right? Heart bleed. So it's just like every single

343
00:24:22,159 --> 00:24:29,360
week it's just like one more terrible thing. Um, oh, I al I forgot Diamond.

344
00:24:27,760 --> 00:24:34,720
Diamond is also another brand that's having problem with them as well. That's

345
00:24:32,320 --> 00:24:38,559
actually pretty much it. So, there you go, guys. We don't have a

346
00:24:37,120 --> 00:24:42,559
solution for you or anything. No, because it it has to be fixed unless

347
00:24:41,200 --> 00:24:46,880
someone's going to make their own firmware, but I don't even know if these

348
00:24:44,480 --> 00:24:50,559
routers are susceptible to that. Um, it's it's it's not going to be fixed

349
00:24:48,799 --> 00:24:54,480
because they obviously don't want to if they just made a cover up. Um, so yeah,

350
00:24:53,120 --> 00:24:59,120
I guess I guess we'll see where this goes. But all we can really do is just pay attention and hope that it goes away

351
00:24:57,360 --> 00:25:02,720
and check to see if your router is on that list so you know you have if you

352
00:25:01,600 --> 00:25:06,640
have to change something. Does it sound bad or Yeah, a little quiet. Oh, okay.

353
00:25:04,960 --> 00:25:09,600
People are people are asking for you to be louder. Oh, the mic's in the shot

354
00:25:08,320 --> 00:25:13,440
now. If you It's It's the source was from RS

355
00:25:11,679 --> 00:25:17,440
Technica. So if you want to see those routers and other stuff, go to the RS

356
00:25:15,039 --> 00:25:20,720
Technica article. Easter egg DSL router patch merely hides back door instead of

357
00:25:19,120 --> 00:25:26,240
closing it. you'll find that article and then you can find other stuff out to see if your router is a problem or not.

358
00:25:24,400 --> 00:25:31,360
Absolutely fantastic. So, speaking of things that are absolutely fantastic,

359
00:25:28,480 --> 00:25:36,799
assumptions about the OnePlus 1. Very few people have actually had their hands

360
00:25:33,679 --> 00:25:39,840
on this incredibly

361
00:25:36,799 --> 00:25:44,799
confusingly named phone. I mean, what

362
00:25:39,840 --> 00:25:47,360
the heck? So, the company is OnePlus

363
00:25:44,799 --> 00:25:53,200
and then the phone is called the One. And it absolutely baffles me. As much as

364
00:25:49,440 --> 00:25:55,279
I as I hate to see uh needless lawsuits

365
00:25:53,200 --> 00:25:58,960
between companies, like I it just it drives me crazy. It baffles me that they

366
00:25:57,520 --> 00:26:02,159
can get away with this. Did is is HTC's the one or is just one,

367
00:26:01,919 --> 00:26:08,159
right? It's just one. It's the HTC one. Can we stop naming things one?

368
00:26:06,559 --> 00:26:10,559
Like they named their entire even company one plus.

369
00:26:10,080 --> 00:26:15,760
Yeah. So like any anyway anyway. So specs have been

370
00:26:14,720 --> 00:26:21,120
revealed. Um, can we nickname it the two? No, cuz I already call my HTC1 M8 the

371
00:26:20,000 --> 00:26:25,159
two. But this is one plus one.

372
00:26:26,960 --> 00:26:31,760
Breathing intensifies. You're you're you're freaking me out

373
00:26:30,320 --> 00:26:35,440
here. I don't know what to do. Anyway, so it's going to arrive in midMay. Right

374
00:26:33,520 --> 00:26:38,880
now, you actually can't pre-order it in the same way that you could pre-order a

375
00:26:37,039 --> 00:26:43,120
normal phone. And they're doing a weird invite-based system, but the full specs

376
00:26:41,600 --> 00:26:49,200
are out there. It uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801. It's got four Crate 400

377
00:26:46,559 --> 00:26:54,240
cores. They're clocked at 2.5 gigahertz, making it the fastest phone on the

378
00:26:51,600 --> 00:26:58,720
market. It uses an Adreno 330 GPU. It's got a 1920 x 1080 screen. It's a 5 and a

379
00:26:56,799 --> 00:27:06,000
half inch screen. So, this is quite a large phone. Yep. Like coming in on fabt territory there.

380
00:27:02,640 --> 00:27:07,760
It's got 401 pixels per inch in terms of

381
00:27:06,000 --> 00:27:11,679
its pixel density. It's got a 5 megapixel front camera with a 13

382
00:27:09,679 --> 00:27:18,159
megapixel rear camera. It's available in 16 gig or 64 gig configurations. They've

383
00:27:14,640 --> 00:27:22,400
all got 3 gigs of RAM and

384
00:27:18,159 --> 00:27:26,640
it's $299 for the 16 gig and a mere 3.49

385
00:27:22,400 --> 00:27:27,039
for a 64 gig phone. Very cool.

386
00:27:26,640 --> 00:27:34,000
Yeah, that's a big deal because I've been upset about this for a long time. how

387
00:27:31,600 --> 00:27:38,720
much cheaper flash storage has gotten and yet how we're stuck with the same

388
00:27:36,960 --> 00:27:44,799
price points on these phones with the same capacity as like four years ago.

389
00:27:42,240 --> 00:27:48,720
And like this is fantastic, but that price jump of 50 bucks is they're

390
00:27:46,720 --> 00:27:51,919
they're still making money off that which is like that's still fantastic

391
00:27:50,400 --> 00:27:55,600
though. I'm I'm happy to pay that compared to other phones where it's like

392
00:27:53,760 --> 00:28:00,720
you get eight more gigabytes, we'll take $100. So the phone runs on Cyanogen Mod. It

393
00:27:58,559 --> 00:28:04,640
has an anodized faux metal rim and swappable back plate. It's going to be

394
00:28:02,320 --> 00:28:09,679
manufactured in the same factory as OPPO phones. It packs triple noise cancelling

395
00:28:06,960 --> 00:28:15,520
microphones for allegedly superb call quality and packs stereo speakers

396
00:28:12,159 --> 00:28:17,279
similar to HTC's one series. However,

397
00:28:15,520 --> 00:28:20,480
one extra thing is the the back is supposed to be removable and you're

398
00:28:18,720 --> 00:28:25,120
supposed to be able to customize your back similarly to the the Moto X

399
00:28:22,720 --> 00:28:28,159
customize your own X style thing where you can get like wooden styled ones and

400
00:28:26,640 --> 00:28:32,960
all these other stealthy ones as well. That's cool. Yeah. And then this is

401
00:28:30,320 --> 00:28:39,120
this is this is a marketing disaster in my mind. So, they're running a they're

402
00:28:35,440 --> 00:28:41,039
running a never settle campaign called

403
00:28:39,120 --> 00:28:47,120
talking about trademarks. Smash your phone. I know, right? Like

404
00:28:43,760 --> 00:28:49,919
AMD does that, man. Smash your phone.

405
00:28:47,120 --> 00:28:55,760
Okay. So, what they're saying is you can buy the OnePlus 1 for a dollar by

406
00:28:53,840 --> 00:29:00,159
applying to be one of the first to own it. So, you'll also be one of the first

407
00:28:57,200 --> 00:29:04,159
to have it. Okay? So, you apply, you stand out. So, they're going to choose a

408
00:29:01,600 --> 00:29:08,240
100 applicants to be the Smashers. Smash and share. Share a video of your Smash

409
00:29:06,000 --> 00:29:13,840
on YouTube and a OnePlus 1 will be yours. you will get a 16 gig silk white

410
00:29:10,960 --> 00:29:17,679
and three invites for other people to purchase the phone. Something that's

411
00:29:15,600 --> 00:29:22,480
actually a pretty hot item right now. People people want to buy these phones.

412
00:29:19,919 --> 00:29:27,440
Now, one sort of challenge here and I Okay, I see they don't have their uh

413
00:29:25,760 --> 00:29:30,240
There we go. There's a list of the qualifying phones which I can't find

414
00:29:29,120 --> 00:29:33,039
right now. I think it's on. If you click on I'll smash my right there.

415
00:29:32,159 --> 00:29:38,000
Ah, there we go. Yep. There you go. There we go. So, there's a list of the

416
00:29:35,279 --> 00:29:41,440
qualifying smashable phones. So, a few problems here. Problem number one is

417
00:29:39,840 --> 00:29:47,039
that the vast majority of those smashable phones can probably be traded

418
00:29:43,760 --> 00:29:50,399
in for anywhere from $200 to $300. So,

419
00:29:47,039 --> 00:29:54,000
you could do the um environmentally and

420
00:29:50,399 --> 00:29:56,000
just generally responsible thing and

421
00:29:54,000 --> 00:30:01,919
trade in your phone and then just buy one. Number two, actually is is a sort

422
00:30:00,159 --> 00:30:07,039
of part of that last thing I just said is the environmental impact of smashing

423
00:30:04,799 --> 00:30:11,760
phones. I mean, some of the chemicals that that are in phone screens, phone

424
00:30:09,520 --> 00:30:16,000
batteries are things that should really be disposed of safely. Not just

425
00:30:14,480 --> 00:30:20,159
if you're going to do this, like at at the very least, go remove the back,

426
00:30:18,480 --> 00:30:22,559
remove the battery, put the backpack on so no one can tell, and then smash it

427
00:30:22,240 --> 00:30:27,679
because on the other hand, you know, iPhone 5 is on the list, so it's not like you can

428
00:30:26,240 --> 00:30:32,240
remove the battery from that. Like this is this is like really brutal.

429
00:30:29,520 --> 00:30:36,799
Um, so that to me just smacks of irresponsibility.

430
00:30:33,919 --> 00:30:42,880
And then on top of that, we've had this issue a number of times where we

431
00:30:39,520 --> 00:30:43,279
announce a contest and people just don't

432
00:30:42,880 --> 00:30:52,399
listen. Completely don't read. People can't listen for 20 seconds

433
00:30:47,600 --> 00:30:54,080
like at all. For example, the HTC1 M8

434
00:30:52,399 --> 00:30:58,399
giveaway. We've got two phones. I am announcing the winners during this show,

435
00:30:55,440 --> 00:31:05,039
by the way. the HTC1 M8 giveaway that we did. I said, "Click the link in the

436
00:31:02,559 --> 00:31:09,360
video description. There are instructions there." The

437
00:31:07,039 --> 00:31:14,399
number of people who posted their favorite thing about the 1M8 under the

438
00:31:11,600 --> 00:31:18,399
video was like in the hundreds. And I'm like, you guys, you you didn't you

439
00:31:16,559 --> 00:31:21,840
didn't listen. You're not entered in the giveaway. And I'm sorry. I mean, it's

440
00:31:20,320 --> 00:31:25,679
great that you posted that. It actually generated a lot of great discussion. And

441
00:31:23,919 --> 00:31:30,799
maybe some people double posted. I know some people did, but guys, you're not in

442
00:31:28,640 --> 00:31:36,880
the giveaway. You got to pay attention. So, here we go. Example of not paying

443
00:31:34,000 --> 00:31:40,960
attention being a big problem. Ahead of the contest, people are already smashing

444
00:31:39,039 --> 00:31:45,279
their phones. This is an article on Android Authority where they complain

445
00:31:43,519 --> 00:31:50,000
about some of the same things that I really didn't like about this whole

446
00:31:47,039 --> 00:31:54,559
contest. So, uh, this was this was an Android Authorities, uh, article where

447
00:31:52,080 --> 00:31:58,640
apparently one of these guys here didn't even fully understand what product was

448
00:31:56,640 --> 00:32:05,519
being given away and thought that it was actually an HTC1. Yeah.

449
00:32:03,440 --> 00:32:10,960
So, here this guy, I don't know if this was the one or not, but this is this is

450
00:32:07,919 --> 00:32:15,840
painful to watch because unless OnePlus

451
00:32:10,960 --> 00:32:19,039
decides to do some some PR, you know,

452
00:32:15,840 --> 00:32:20,640
fixing here and give phones to the

453
00:32:19,039 --> 00:32:27,039
people who already smashed them before they knew they were entered. This guy

454
00:32:22,240 --> 00:32:31,279
just wrecked a perfectly good iPhone

455
00:32:27,039 --> 00:32:34,080
and it's dead now and he's not getting a

456
00:32:31,279 --> 00:32:37,120
OnePlus 1. So

457
00:32:34,399 --> 00:32:40,799
Oh, wow. Yeah. No, no. Okay. Yeah. Not recoverable.

458
00:32:38,080 --> 00:32:43,600
No. No. This will not be being used anymore.

459
00:32:41,840 --> 00:32:48,880
At first I was like, uh, it's not that hard to replace iPhone screens in the

460
00:32:45,440 --> 00:32:50,320
back. It's probably Nope. Snap a nap.

461
00:32:48,880 --> 00:32:54,799
Kind of brutal. I was looking at this earlier. Um, and I wouldn't be surprised

462
00:32:52,480 --> 00:32:58,640
if a massive amount of the entrance are Z10s because you can get those a lot

463
00:32:57,200 --> 00:33:02,640
cheaper than the rest of the phones. And because you don't have to you don't have

464
00:33:00,960 --> 00:33:07,039
to smash your phone first. Yeah. Just making sure people got that part.

465
00:33:05,039 --> 00:33:10,960
Um, people entering could say that they have one and then go out and buy one and

466
00:33:08,559 --> 00:33:15,120
smash it if they get selected. Not that that's a good thing, but like I

467
00:33:13,600 --> 00:33:19,679
fully suspect a lot of people are going to do that though. We still don't want people to do that.

468
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:24,240
Okay. That's also not the point at all of what they're trying to do. So, their

469
00:33:21,600 --> 00:33:27,200
whole PR thing is also not going to work because it's just a whole bunch of

470
00:33:25,519 --> 00:33:32,080
people going, "Oh, well, I don't have to smash my phone. I can retire it to my

471
00:33:29,679 --> 00:33:35,440
mom or do whatever and get someone else's or it's going to be a lot of

472
00:33:33,679 --> 00:33:38,880
phones that don't work right already and then they're going to smash

473
00:33:37,279 --> 00:33:42,559
them and then throw them away." I don't know. So, those should still be disposed of

474
00:33:41,279 --> 00:33:50,000
environment in an environmentally friendly manner. All right. All right. So, this was posted by Jop Pat Jop

475
00:33:46,640 --> 00:33:52,720
whatever that guy. Um, Intel is

476
00:33:50,000 --> 00:34:00,159
allegedly working on a new Thunderbolt controller chip to drive two 4K displays

477
00:33:56,720 --> 00:34:03,039
at the same time. So, it will use PCI

478
00:34:00,159 --> 00:34:08,960
Express Gen 3, which means that hopefully by the time this rolls out,

479
00:34:05,440 --> 00:34:10,399
AMD and NVIDIA will be like comfortable

480
00:34:08,960 --> 00:34:14,800
enough with the level of performance that Thunderbolt is delivering to give

481
00:34:12,079 --> 00:34:19,040
us drivers to enable external GPUs because you can already hook up a

482
00:34:16,639 --> 00:34:24,320
graphics card on a PCI Express to Thunderbolt bridge that should work.

483
00:34:22,320 --> 00:34:27,040
It's AMD and NVIDIA not providing a driver that is causing it to not work.

484
00:34:25,679 --> 00:34:33,119
And I don't know the reasons they're not providing a driver. There could be very good reasons, but hopefully when this

485
00:34:31,200 --> 00:34:38,960
happens, we'll get that. What we'll definitely get is 40 Gbit per second

486
00:34:36,240 --> 00:34:43,679
bandwidth and enough to, like I said, to drive two 4K displays off of a single

487
00:34:41,520 --> 00:34:49,440
cable. I mean, that's one of the reasons probably why Apple has six Thunderbolt 2

488
00:34:47,119 --> 00:34:55,040
connectors on the Mac Pro. because it's not uncommon for a creative professional

489
00:34:51,440 --> 00:34:57,520
to have two, usually two, and often

490
00:34:55,040 --> 00:35:01,440
three or even more displays connected. So, even though we joke about the Mac

491
00:34:59,760 --> 00:35:04,880
Pro and we go, "Oh, that's all the external expansion it has." And you and

492
00:35:03,440 --> 00:35:09,200
there's that there's that awesome picture of of the then and now with the

493
00:35:07,760 --> 00:35:13,119
old Mac Pro and the tower and the new Mac Pro with all the like with like the

494
00:35:10,880 --> 00:35:17,440
CD drive like connected externally and all the crap piled around it. We joke

495
00:35:15,119 --> 00:35:21,599
about that, but a big part of the reason is actually well, you just need to be

496
00:35:19,200 --> 00:35:26,079
able to drive displays off the thing. So, right now, you can't do a single 4K

497
00:35:24,320 --> 00:35:29,520
display yet off of a Thunderbolt connector or so,

498
00:35:27,839 --> 00:35:33,599
right? You can, sorry, you can do only a single 4K display off of a Thunderbolt

499
00:35:31,359 --> 00:35:39,200
connector. And with 4K coming down in price so quickly and so dramatically,

500
00:35:37,200 --> 00:35:41,760
running multiple 4K displays, it's going to be a thing really soon.

501
00:35:40,400 --> 00:35:45,359
One of the coolest things, too, is its ability to drive up to 100 watts of

502
00:35:43,599 --> 00:35:51,119
power. I know that's solid. So get this. I mean again like the

503
00:35:49,040 --> 00:35:56,800
notebooks of the future, right? Where you take I mean this has Thunderbolt

504
00:35:52,960 --> 00:35:59,359
like not Thunderbolt 40 gigabit per

505
00:35:56,800 --> 00:36:03,359
second charges off of things. So, the way this is going to work, guys, is

506
00:36:01,200 --> 00:36:09,839
you're going to plug into your your Thunderbolt enabled monitor that also

507
00:36:07,280 --> 00:36:14,480
has a Thunderbolt, you know, external GPU slot that also has a Thunderbolt

508
00:36:12,640 --> 00:36:19,599
everything else you're going to need. You're going to plug your laptop, one

509
00:36:16,480 --> 00:36:21,599
cable, your laptop will be charging, it

510
00:36:19,599 --> 00:36:26,720
will be running, it will be outputting to the display,

511
00:36:23,599 --> 00:36:28,800
and like all your other peripherals,

512
00:36:26,720 --> 00:36:34,240
mind blown. They need to start calling these things really cool names like

513
00:36:31,040 --> 00:36:36,640
Alpine out the the chip.

514
00:36:34,240 --> 00:36:40,960
I actually had a call with someone from Intel today and I found out how Intel

515
00:36:39,680 --> 00:36:46,320
does their code names. Really? Yeah. That's actually really cool.

516
00:36:43,440 --> 00:36:51,200
Yeah. So, um, sometimes and like there's no there's no hard and fast way, but he

517
00:36:48,000 --> 00:36:53,599
gave me two scenarios. So sometimes they

518
00:36:51,200 --> 00:36:57,520
the the the project lead, whoever owns the project, literally picks from a list

519
00:36:55,760 --> 00:37:02,240
of code names and goes, "That one seems pretty neat." And assigns it.

520
00:36:59,760 --> 00:37:05,119
Do you know how Devil's Canyon was done? No.

521
00:37:02,880 --> 00:37:08,800
There's a group within Intel that puts on, I believe it's Landfest is the

522
00:37:07,200 --> 00:37:12,640
events that they work on. And the way that the whole Landfest project works, I

523
00:37:10,640 --> 00:37:17,200
had no idea, and this is really cool, is that Intel employees who are passionate

524
00:37:14,560 --> 00:37:23,520
about gaming donate their time really. And then Intel pays but not the

525
00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:27,440
employees. They pay to a charity of the choice of the employees donating their

526
00:37:25,200 --> 00:37:32,240
time to the project. So Intel is ultimately still paying for all the

527
00:37:29,440 --> 00:37:36,079
Landfest stuff, but it's the employees who are truly passionate about it

528
00:37:33,599 --> 00:37:39,119
driving it and then Intel is turning that into a charitable donation.

529
00:37:38,000 --> 00:37:48,400
So I thought that was really Anyway, that is really cool. So, the way that Devil's Canyon, the alleged rumored

530
00:37:44,160 --> 00:37:52,000
upcoming Intel uh CPU refresh, was named

531
00:37:48,400 --> 00:37:52,640
was by polling those guys.

532
00:37:52,000 --> 00:37:57,200
That's kind of cool. So, they gave them a bunch of options. They were like, "What do you think is

533
00:37:55,200 --> 00:38:00,720
like the coolest one for an enthusiast grade product?" And they're like

534
00:37:59,200 --> 00:38:04,320
overwhelmingly Devil's Canyon. Devil's Canyon. And I was like, "Oh,

535
00:38:02,480 --> 00:38:07,760
that sounds badass." Yeah. So, like that's cool. I think that's fantastic.

536
00:38:05,760 --> 00:38:13,520
Just It's like Alpine Ridge, which sounds like a body wash.

537
00:38:10,000 --> 00:38:13,920
Or like maybe a sports refresher energy

538
00:38:13,520 --> 00:38:19,040
drink. Yeah. Yeah. It could be a drink drink. It could be like um it could be like ski

539
00:38:18,079 --> 00:38:24,160
goggles. Yeah. Like I could see it being a piece of apparel.

540
00:38:21,599 --> 00:38:28,400
Definitely. But why not like Thor? Thor. Well, I think there's issues there

541
00:38:26,560 --> 00:38:32,800
with Marvel. But it's a Greek god.

542
00:38:30,079 --> 00:38:36,560
That's true. You shouldn't be able to. You're

543
00:38:34,079 --> 00:38:39,839
probably not wrong. But that's stupid that you're probably not wrong.

544
00:38:38,160 --> 00:38:43,920
Yeah. I don't like that. I mean, they wouldn't like it.

545
00:38:41,760 --> 00:38:47,119
No, I'm sure not. Isn't it like Sony owns the rights to Mutant or something?

546
00:38:46,240 --> 00:38:52,560
Oh, I don't know. I I don't remember what it is. There's like some super common word and it's

547
00:38:50,720 --> 00:38:57,359
part of the reason why Spider-Man kept whatever. So, one issue here is that the powered

548
00:38:55,040 --> 00:39:01,760
Thunderbolt 3, I guess, whatever we're going to call it, the 40 Gbit per second

549
00:38:59,599 --> 00:39:04,880
Thunderbolt connector would actually have to be a different connector,

550
00:39:03,440 --> 00:39:08,000
unfortunately. But there'll probably be some kind of an

551
00:39:06,720 --> 00:39:12,240
adapter system. I mean, the thing about PCI Express, which is what Thunderbolt

552
00:39:09,839 --> 00:39:15,680
is based on, is that it is forwards and backwards compatible. So, as long as you

553
00:39:14,160 --> 00:39:19,680
had a physical adapter, your older Thunderbolt gear should still be okay.

554
00:39:18,400 --> 00:39:24,400
Something that will be good news to folks who have heavily invested in Thunderbolt

555
00:39:22,800 --> 00:39:27,400
to whom I would say, why?

556
00:39:27,760 --> 00:39:32,960
I still don't quite understand why people buy Thunderbolt gear.

557
00:39:31,520 --> 00:39:35,839
It's so much more expensive. I know. But you're saying that's why

558
00:39:35,040 --> 00:39:40,560
they buy it? No. I'm like agreeing with you being like, "Yeah, I don't know. I don't get

559
00:39:39,040 --> 00:39:43,440
it." We don't use anything that's Thunderbolt. We actually do own one Thunderbolt piece

560
00:39:42,960 --> 00:39:48,800
of gear. What thing? We didn't pay for it though. Oh. Um, we have an external drive from

561
00:39:47,599 --> 00:39:53,920
Western Digital. Oh, yeah. That's like a dual drive drive and uh

562
00:39:52,800 --> 00:39:58,000
it's kind of cool actually. Yeah. But we didn't pay for that.

563
00:39:56,160 --> 00:40:04,320
That's true. We did not. I don't know. We own two pieces. We have a hard drive

564
00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:06,000
dock also we didn't pay for. Okay. I'll

565
00:40:04,320 --> 00:40:11,760
let you handle this one. This one's really short, but has Virtuix managed to make themselves

566
00:40:10,320 --> 00:40:15,599
relevant again? Uh, no. Okay,

567
00:40:13,920 --> 00:40:21,520
this isn't going to consumers, at least right away. Um, so that's why it's like

568
00:40:18,720 --> 00:40:25,839
what? Um, anyways, there's a there's a modif modifi modification kit thing for

569
00:40:24,000 --> 00:40:29,280
the Virtuix Omni. Right now, it's one package. Hopefully later it'll be a kit

570
00:40:27,760 --> 00:40:33,520
that consumers can buy, but right now it's upgrade existing Omnis.

571
00:40:31,359 --> 00:40:39,839
Yes. But it's it's right now it's just for it's it's it's a design project with

572
00:40:36,560 --> 00:40:42,240
the UN with Rice University in Texas.

573
00:40:39,839 --> 00:40:47,280
It's R&D for possibly military training applications. It's not a consumer level

574
00:40:44,480 --> 00:40:50,560
thing, but I fully expect people to scream for it. So, it'll probably become

575
00:40:49,040 --> 00:40:54,560
a consumer level thing at some time. They said they may offer it, but they're

576
00:40:52,400 --> 00:40:57,920
not dedicated to anything right now. And like Lina said, it's going to be an

577
00:40:55,920 --> 00:41:02,160
upgrade kit to the existing Omni. So, if you already bought one, you don't have to worry about buying an entirely new

578
00:41:00,560 --> 00:41:05,599
kit, which is going to cost way more money. You just buy an upgrade kit,

579
00:41:03,680 --> 00:41:09,200
which could possibly be even more looking at the size of the thing, which

580
00:41:07,200 --> 00:41:13,440
we have only the one picture of. So, you can show that. Oops. Sorry, just poked

581
00:41:11,280 --> 00:41:18,319
the crap out of your screen. Sorry. So, you you can see it's it actually looks a

582
00:41:16,319 --> 00:41:23,680
lot more like the ghetto omnis that people have been making, having the four

583
00:41:20,800 --> 00:41:28,000
post system with the supports coming in. So, the idea with this is that it can go

584
00:41:26,000 --> 00:41:29,760
up and down with you, but then still provide support,

585
00:41:29,440 --> 00:41:34,560
right? It's a pretty interesting project, but I don't expect it to be cheap. And I think

586
00:41:33,119 --> 00:41:39,920
that's part of the reason why it's more of a uh military training application

587
00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:45,280
idea and not necessarily consumer idea is even as an upgrade kit, I expect this

588
00:41:42,079 --> 00:41:47,599
to be really expensive. So, current

589
00:41:45,280 --> 00:41:48,800
level omnis, you can run around and you can jump.

590
00:41:48,400 --> 00:41:54,800
Yeah. Um, can you imagine jumping on that thing though? That'd be tough. I was actually just

591
00:41:52,800 --> 00:41:58,319
going to bring this up is that currently you can run around and you can quote I

592
00:41:56,960 --> 00:42:02,960
should have done quote unquote jump because that makes more sense. Um and now you'll be able to crouch. Part of

593
00:42:01,200 --> 00:42:07,680
the problem with them claiming jumping is one of the abilities is I fully

594
00:42:04,800 --> 00:42:12,319
expect if you did that all the time, you would end up breaking things or yourself

595
00:42:10,319 --> 00:42:14,880
because they have essentially if you've ever been longboarding or if you have

596
00:42:13,680 --> 00:42:19,599
friends that have been longboarding, if they have those longboarding gloves with

597
00:42:17,119 --> 00:42:22,800
the like slick plasticky kind of pad things on their gloves, you're

598
00:42:21,200 --> 00:42:27,760
essentially wearing those on your feet on a plastic surface. So you slide a

599
00:42:26,000 --> 00:42:32,720
lot. That's the whole point. So it feels like you're running as you're putting your feet on plastic. It's because it

600
00:42:30,240 --> 00:42:36,640
slides down. So jumping on that type of a surface if you're actually trying to

601
00:42:34,000 --> 00:42:40,880
get a lot of air. Yeah, it's going to be kind of scary. So there's not a ton to

602
00:42:38,480 --> 00:42:44,960
say in there. If you do want it, I'm sure contacting Virtuix would help it

603
00:42:42,960 --> 00:42:48,319
come to the consumer end. Uh but just remember it's going to be really expensive.

604
00:42:46,560 --> 00:42:53,359
How would you feel as an Omni Kickstarter backer at this point? That

605
00:42:50,640 --> 00:42:58,079
thing has been so up and down with the recent thing out of um out of Oculus

606
00:42:55,920 --> 00:43:02,880
being Yeah. We're focused on a sitting down experience, not on a moving around

607
00:43:00,480 --> 00:43:05,680
experience. So there's there's

608
00:43:04,160 --> 00:43:08,800
I know someone who backed it. Do you? Yeah. And like bought the whole thing.

609
00:43:08,480 --> 00:43:17,280
Yeah. Like a fold back like the $400. Yeah. Okay. Okay. I don't um I I don't

610
00:43:14,960 --> 00:43:21,359
know. Um I would be paying a lot of attention to the the small groups. very

611
00:43:19,920 --> 00:43:25,040
small groups right now that are working on a I can't even call it ghetto

612
00:43:23,839 --> 00:43:34,079
solution because it has to be pretty advanced for this to work properly. Um,

613
00:43:29,599 --> 00:43:35,440
but like the the the the the moving of

614
00:43:34,079 --> 00:43:41,119
the camera, they're trying to make that a reality, but having it based off your physical

615
00:43:39,119 --> 00:43:46,560
movement is going to impede you a lot for one, right? And there's gonna be if unless

616
00:43:44,400 --> 00:43:50,160
it's like hardcore strapped in, which is going to be highly uncomfortable,

617
00:43:48,160 --> 00:43:52,960
there's going to be mechanical lag because you're going to turn and then

618
00:43:51,280 --> 00:43:58,560
it's going to have to pick up with you, right? And then there's software problems with

619
00:43:55,040 --> 00:44:00,319
it shifting too much. And then motorized

620
00:43:58,560 --> 00:44:05,839
versions that detect your movement based off of the connect are going to have

621
00:44:02,240 --> 00:44:07,280
problems again. And there's Yeah, I

622
00:44:05,839 --> 00:44:11,440
don't know. They're they're trying to make something work, but none of the

623
00:44:09,359 --> 00:44:15,280
solutions are very feasible yet. And they're all aftermarket ones. Omni

624
00:44:13,280 --> 00:44:19,200
hasn't said anything, right? About it actually happening.

625
00:44:17,359 --> 00:44:23,839
You mean Oculus? No. Or Omni? Omni. Oh, okay. Sorry. Yeah.

626
00:44:21,520 --> 00:44:27,599
No worries. Virtuix, I should have said. Yeah.

627
00:44:26,480 --> 00:44:32,079
Huh. It's It's an interesting situation, but

628
00:44:30,000 --> 00:44:36,000
I just people do have to realize that that quote is very real. Um they're

629
00:44:34,400 --> 00:44:40,800
they're focusing the seated forward- facing this box of field of view from

630
00:44:39,359 --> 00:44:44,560
the camera position. I mean, cool stuff's going to happen in the future,

631
00:44:42,480 --> 00:44:47,040
but for now, they want to focus on one thing at a time, and I totally get that,

632
00:44:46,000 --> 00:44:51,839
and I respect that. Yeah. Yeah. Um, I hope it happens fairly quickly, but

633
00:44:50,319 --> 00:44:57,920
yeah, I respect that. Wow, what's going on? Yeah, it's okay. Anyway, speaking of

634
00:44:55,280 --> 00:45:03,200
things that are are good, I guess, uh, the Facebook Oculus acquisition is a

635
00:45:01,040 --> 00:45:07,839
done deal now. It's been approved by the feds. So, there you go. I guess that's

636
00:45:06,000 --> 00:45:13,119
all we really have to say. that the last thing is and I apologize guys this is

637
00:45:10,480 --> 00:45:18,160
another Oculus um this is another Oculus story but it's

638
00:45:16,160 --> 00:45:24,400
one that leads into a very interesting conversation Oculus Facebook sees movies

639
00:45:21,839 --> 00:45:31,520
as the next big thing for Oculus Rift. So this is an article from Techraar

640
00:45:27,680 --> 00:45:33,040
and I would like for us to have a bit of

641
00:45:31,520 --> 00:45:37,760
a conversation here. We haven't we haven't primed this one at all. Um other

642
00:45:35,520 --> 00:45:42,720
than just to have sort of notes on it, which I just closed. So now I've got

643
00:45:39,599 --> 00:45:44,400
nothing. But you know what? Here, why

644
00:45:42,720 --> 00:45:46,640
don't you do the facts and then we'll have the discussion. This one?

645
00:45:45,839 --> 00:45:50,880
Yeah. So, uh, what do you mean by facts?

646
00:45:49,280 --> 00:45:55,599
I mean the things in there. Okay. So, according to Corey, I can't

647
00:45:53,280 --> 00:45:59,119
say your last name. Facebook's VP of mobile engineering, virtual reality is

648
00:45:57,040 --> 00:46:02,800
destined to go well beyond gaming and movies seem to be the obvious next

649
00:46:00,880 --> 00:46:07,839
conquest. People have been talking about going to IMAX essentially and wearing an

650
00:46:05,680 --> 00:46:10,640
Oculus and how that experience could be with the the awesome audio and

651
00:46:09,599 --> 00:46:16,240
everything else that there is in an IMAX. Um, another quote by the same I

652
00:46:14,880 --> 00:46:22,240
can't pronounce your last name, I'm very sorry, Facebook's VP of mobile engineering. Uh, I am completely excited

653
00:46:20,319 --> 00:46:28,640
about the intersection of Hollywood and virtual reality. I think we're going to

654
00:46:24,720 --> 00:46:30,000
I think we're going to see the next uh

655
00:46:28,640 --> 00:46:34,960
I think what we're going to see I've missed one word there over the next coming year is going to be truly

656
00:46:33,119 --> 00:46:38,560
spectacular. So essentially there's just a lot of were interesting. One of the

657
00:46:36,800 --> 00:46:43,920
problems is going to be you're not going to be able to shoot content that's

658
00:46:40,640 --> 00:46:45,760
actually properly designed for a Rift by

659
00:46:43,920 --> 00:46:49,839
using the same kind of camera setup that we use and what a lot of much better

660
00:46:48,400 --> 00:46:53,839
camera setup but what a lot of movies would use, which is like a prime camera

661
00:46:51,680 --> 00:46:57,680
and maybe one or two other shots and then that's it. You're going to need an

662
00:46:56,160 --> 00:47:02,560
insane amount of cameras because you're going to have to be able to capture everything. And part of your problem is

663
00:47:00,560 --> 00:47:05,920
going to be like people and stuff which would normally be behind the scenes.

664
00:47:03,920 --> 00:47:12,480
Well, if someone goes like this, what's going to happen? It's Yeah.

665
00:47:08,000 --> 00:47:15,440
So, in my mind, the only way for a VR

666
00:47:12,480 --> 00:47:20,319
film to work properly would be autonomous an autonomous array of

667
00:47:17,839 --> 00:47:26,880
relatively inexpensive um omniirectional cameras. So if and you

668
00:47:24,000 --> 00:47:31,520
won't be able unless you can make drones much much quieter than they are and much

669
00:47:29,440 --> 00:47:35,599
much more advanced than they are. You're not going to be able to record sound

670
00:47:33,440 --> 00:47:39,119
with any I guess okay you could mic up everyone and everything but still that

671
00:47:37,599 --> 00:47:42,560
wouldn't help for ambient sound collection. So, you're going to need an

672
00:47:41,040 --> 00:47:48,960
autonomous array of drones, and then you're going to need to have a crazy

673
00:47:45,680 --> 00:47:51,839
sophisticated way of having each of them

674
00:47:48,960 --> 00:47:56,800
overlap each other's images enough to cancel each other out so that you can't

675
00:47:54,240 --> 00:48:00,480
see the drones or whether it's drones or whether it's something else, the way

676
00:47:58,240 --> 00:48:04,160
that the camera arrays will have to work will have to be so that for every camera

677
00:48:02,400 --> 00:48:08,240
that's positioned, so so let's let's say you guys are looking at a top down view.

678
00:48:05,760 --> 00:48:12,800
So, for every camera positioned here, there's going to have to be one here and

679
00:48:10,319 --> 00:48:16,240
here so that we can see anything that would have been blocked by this one from

680
00:48:14,560 --> 00:48:21,839
this camera position here. Because someone has to be able for to for me for

681
00:48:19,200 --> 00:48:27,359
me for VR to be a way for me to compellingly be told a story, um,

682
00:48:25,680 --> 00:48:32,240
it's going to have to work the same way that VR would work in a game where I can

683
00:48:30,480 --> 00:48:38,880
walk around in the environment. Which leads us to the other reasonable future

684
00:48:35,200 --> 00:48:44,079
scenario, which is maybe we just do away

685
00:48:38,880 --> 00:48:47,760
with sets and actors and the whole thing

686
00:48:44,079 --> 00:48:50,000
goes full CGI. Um, I mean, you're still

687
00:48:47,760 --> 00:48:56,720
going to have that you're still going to have that not it's not quite real. It's

688
00:48:53,040 --> 00:48:57,599
it's still a little bit creepy effect,

689
00:48:56,720 --> 00:49:02,559
but not if it's not if it's designed to not look real.

690
00:49:00,960 --> 00:49:06,720
Okay. Okay. If it's not designed to look real, then I guess there's that. But

691
00:49:04,000 --> 00:49:10,720
that still doesn't address any kind of um

692
00:49:08,480 --> 00:49:14,559
any kind of footage of anything that's like actually

693
00:49:12,640 --> 00:49:19,839
real. Like I I don't know. I don't know if I'm explaining this properly. I think

694
00:49:16,880 --> 00:49:25,200
this could be the first the first technological thing that happens that

695
00:49:21,680 --> 00:49:28,880
really makes me feel old because I get

696
00:49:25,200 --> 00:49:31,760
the feeling much like anyone who, you

697
00:49:28,880 --> 00:49:36,960
know, kind of looked at MP3s or still looks at MP3s today and goes, "Well, the

698
00:49:35,040 --> 00:49:41,040
radio was good enough when I was a kid, so the radio's good enough now." And you

699
00:49:38,880 --> 00:49:46,640
know what? The radio is still great. But I think for me, this is not going to be

700
00:49:43,920 --> 00:49:48,559
a compelling way to watch a movie for an hour and a half.

701
00:49:47,280 --> 00:49:52,160
I don't think it will be. Now, one of the problems you see when you uh come

702
00:49:50,720 --> 00:49:56,559
out with a new medium, like let's look at video games. When video games first

703
00:49:54,079 --> 00:50:02,319
started being a really big deal, what a lot of people started trying to do was,

704
00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:04,400
and now I'm not saying Pong, I'm saying

705
00:50:02,319 --> 00:50:08,160
stuff beyond that. They tried making movies that were interactive. Like you

706
00:50:07,359 --> 00:50:13,760
remember that people were trying to merge movies and video games and they try to make these like stupid playable

707
00:50:11,760 --> 00:50:18,559
on your DVD player video games because they were like movies and games. Yeah.

708
00:50:16,640 --> 00:50:23,040
The second you try to merge things like this, there's going to be the people

709
00:50:20,480 --> 00:50:25,839
that kind of halfass it at the beginning and it's not going to work very well.

710
00:50:24,720 --> 00:50:31,040
What people are going to have to actually do is create an experience

711
00:50:27,760 --> 00:50:33,760
focused around the idea that it's a

712
00:50:31,040 --> 00:50:36,160
movie for virtual reality. And it's going to have to be filmed

713
00:50:34,960 --> 00:50:41,040
completely differently. is going to have to be written completely differently. All the sets are going to have to be

714
00:50:38,720 --> 00:50:43,200
made completely differently. Everything is going to have to be totally

715
00:50:42,079 --> 00:50:47,760
different. I think it's going to be a long time till we get there. Even if we start trying now, I think everything's

716
00:50:46,559 --> 00:50:53,280
going to be kind of crap at the beginning. Um I mean, there's a lot of different ways

717
00:50:50,720 --> 00:50:59,359
VR could work for a movie. I mean like um I guess you wouldn't even need to be

718
00:50:56,559 --> 00:51:03,920
VR in order for like as camera technology changes. if you could watch

719
00:51:01,200 --> 00:51:08,079
the movie flat or if you could watch the movie from the perspective of any one

720
00:51:06,240 --> 00:51:11,839
character that you pick, like if you could cycle through or whatever else.

721
00:51:10,079 --> 00:51:14,960
Like there's a lot of different things that can happen here. I just don't know

722
00:51:13,440 --> 00:51:19,680
which one of them which ones of them will be enjoyable. That's something that's interested me as

723
00:51:17,599 --> 00:51:23,680
well is if you can be like I am the lead character or I am the supporting role

724
00:51:22,160 --> 00:51:28,079
and you want to see it from their angle. I want to be Sauron. Yeah. Like something like that. But then

725
00:51:26,480 --> 00:51:31,680
what's your movie going to be? Yeah. That's another part of the problem. when

726
00:51:29,680 --> 00:51:35,280
I brought in sets and scripts and all that kind of stuff because he's not

727
00:51:32,960 --> 00:51:37,280
actually in that much of the movie. So, how do you make that a movie,

728
00:51:36,880 --> 00:51:41,760
right? Well, there'd be much more filming. And then part of the problem is you're

729
00:51:40,079 --> 00:51:45,599
you're bringing in way more angles and you're bringing in way more possibilities. So, that is going to

730
00:51:43,760 --> 00:51:49,520
raise cost by a lot. If you have to produce an entire movie from different

731
00:51:47,599 --> 00:51:54,160
people's perspectives, but the same feature length,

732
00:51:51,920 --> 00:51:58,240
that's a lot of editing and production. It sounds like a crazy Kickstarter

733
00:51:55,839 --> 00:52:01,520
project that just might work. Yeah, that's what it sounds like to me. It

734
00:51:59,839 --> 00:52:05,200
sounds like someone's going to try. Someone will try. Oh, definitely. Like

735
00:52:03,119 --> 00:52:07,599
this will happen. And I fully expect I think it's all I'm all I'm trying to say

736
00:52:06,559 --> 00:52:11,680
is I think there's going to be growing pains. I don't I don't think it's not going to grow. I don't think it's not

737
00:52:10,400 --> 00:52:17,920
going to happen. I'm pretty sure Facebook has made it extremely clear

738
00:52:13,440 --> 00:52:20,400
that they want this to happen. Um

739
00:52:17,920 --> 00:52:23,359
yeah, I don't know. It's going to be interesting.

740
00:52:22,000 --> 00:52:26,640
I have a feeling I'm going to be a geyser about it though because it just

741
00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:31,680
doesn't sound that appealing to me. gaming VR. Yeah, heads up. Or like

742
00:52:29,040 --> 00:52:35,359
definitely two thumbs up. Um, augmented reality VR. Oh, yeah. I'm so into that.

743
00:52:34,720 --> 00:52:40,960
Yeah, for sure. That's I'm actually more excited about that than sitting down in VR.

744
00:52:38,640 --> 00:52:43,839
Me, too. But I don't see that as being very good for a while.

745
00:52:42,400 --> 00:52:46,800
Oh, it's going to be a long time. But that's that's the holy grail to me.

746
00:52:45,520 --> 00:52:52,079
That's why I'm focusing on VR. I mean, that goes all the way back to our virtual like flying RC things at

747
00:52:51,680 --> 00:52:57,200
each other. Yeah. The football field worth of Yeah. That goes all the way back to that. That

748
00:52:56,000 --> 00:53:02,160
is exciting. That's the kind of thing that I would have seen the the digital trips thing

749
00:53:00,640 --> 00:53:07,599
from Watchd Dogs. No. When you go around, I'm trying I'm I'm

750
00:53:06,400 --> 00:53:12,079
going to This is stuff that's been already released. So, if you're waiting for Watchd Dogs, maybe plug your ears,

751
00:53:10,640 --> 00:53:16,640
but this is not I don't think they're trying to hide this. This isn't really a spoiler alert or anything like that. Um,

752
00:53:15,200 --> 00:53:23,280
but digital trips, you can walk around and people on the street will just try and sell you like digital trips and you

753
00:53:21,200 --> 00:53:25,599
will it it like changes how the game plays

754
00:53:24,240 --> 00:53:29,680
and like one of them I can't remember what it's actually called. Um, but you

755
00:53:27,520 --> 00:53:33,920
turn into this giant spider tank, right? So you're a tank but it has like spider

756
00:53:32,160 --> 00:53:37,839
legs and stuff and you just run around and jump around the city and just blow

757
00:53:35,599 --> 00:53:41,920
crap up and you have like a cannon and it's just ridiculous. But you're it's a

758
00:53:40,000 --> 00:53:45,280
digital trip and I I don't remember exactly if there's like side effects or

759
00:53:43,520 --> 00:53:48,960
crazy things that can happen or anything like that. I haven't looked way too far

760
00:53:46,800 --> 00:53:53,359
into it, but like that kind of stuff would be really cool. Like altering that

761
00:53:51,440 --> 00:53:55,760
like alternate reality with the the football field and stuff if you take

762
00:53:54,720 --> 00:54:00,880
that idea where you're just like sitting on the bleachers and it's a normal day,

763
00:53:59,200 --> 00:54:04,559
but then all of a sudden there's spider tanks and helicopters and stuff and

764
00:54:02,880 --> 00:54:11,040
you're fighting your buddy and like Yeah, it's going to be awesome. That would be really cool.

765
00:54:08,160 --> 00:54:13,839
All right. So, that's that's it for virtual reality stuff for today. Don't

766
00:54:12,800 --> 00:54:22,079
worry, guys. Yep. Um, Amazon Amazon has secured a deal to

767
00:54:18,000 --> 00:54:23,280
provide HBO premium content to Amazon

768
00:54:22,079 --> 00:54:30,000
Prime members. That title is You will be able to access HBO shows,

769
00:54:27,440 --> 00:54:36,480
not all of them. Um, HBO is going to be sticking to like a multi-year

770
00:54:33,200 --> 00:54:39,520
delay between when they release content

771
00:54:36,480 --> 00:54:42,160
and then when stuff's available sort of

772
00:54:39,520 --> 00:54:47,760
elsewhere. But what's amazing about this whole thing is this is this is HBO's

773
00:54:44,319 --> 00:54:51,680
first move towards any kind of purely

774
00:54:47,760 --> 00:54:53,839
digital distribution network. So, uh,

775
00:54:51,680 --> 00:54:58,160
HBO content has already been available as on demand, but this is the first time

776
00:54:56,319 --> 00:55:03,359
you're going to be able to stream it in an unlimited fashion using just your

777
00:55:01,280 --> 00:55:09,520
Amazon Prime membership. Now, Amazon did recently increase the price of Amazon

778
00:55:05,839 --> 00:55:11,440
Prime, but as you can already see, it

779
00:55:09,520 --> 00:55:15,680
looks like that was for good reason, and they are looking to add more value to

780
00:55:13,760 --> 00:55:20,000
that increased subscription in order to continue to justify it for people. So,

781
00:55:17,920 --> 00:55:22,960
um, but the first question in my mind was, oh, are they going to have Game of

782
00:55:21,119 --> 00:55:29,760
Thrones on it? Nope. No, no Game of Thrones. So, it's going to have Sopranos, The Wire, Deadwood, Rome, Six

783
00:55:26,400 --> 00:55:31,520
Feet Under. Um, so all seasons of some

784
00:55:29,760 --> 00:55:35,040
of the some of the older stuff. It's going to have select seasons of newer

785
00:55:33,359 --> 00:55:39,599
stuff like True Blood. It's going to have some original movies like Too Big

786
00:55:37,040 --> 00:55:45,040
to Fail and You Don't Know Jack and some documentaries, some comedy specials from

787
00:55:42,559 --> 00:55:49,200
Ellen Degenerous and so folks like that. Uh, it's going to have some of the

788
00:55:46,319 --> 00:55:53,599
miniseries like Band of Brothers and there you go as an Amazon Prime member.

789
00:55:51,040 --> 00:55:57,760
So, if you have a Kindle TV or whatever that Fire TV, thank you. If you have a

790
00:55:55,359 --> 00:56:00,240
Fire TV, then you I'm really off today. That's cool.

791
00:55:58,480 --> 00:56:07,760
Then you're going to be able to stream these to yourself. And I think that's

792
00:56:02,559 --> 00:56:11,839
that's great, but just plain not enough.

793
00:56:07,760 --> 00:56:13,599
Yeah, I h I HBO needs to figure it out

794
00:56:11,839 --> 00:56:17,680
in my opinion. They need to they need to start because what was it like Game of

795
00:56:15,440 --> 00:56:20,960
Thrones was the most downloaded thing through Torrance ever? Didn't they win

796
00:56:19,599 --> 00:56:25,839
that twice or something? I think so. And like come on guys, maybe figure it

797
00:56:24,480 --> 00:56:29,920
out at some point in time. Get a website. I'll pay a subscription. I

798
00:56:27,760 --> 00:56:34,400
don't even have a cable connection, but I'd love to watch your shows. I honestly

799
00:56:32,160 --> 00:56:38,319
haven't. I think I've watched like the first almost the first season of Game of

800
00:56:37,119 --> 00:56:44,240
Thrones because I watched it at my parents house. Like I'd love to see it

801
00:56:41,760 --> 00:56:48,319
going through the books, but I I'm kind of holding out because HBO's got to

802
00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:53,280
revolutionize in some form at some point in time. They have to. Like, come on,

803
00:56:51,760 --> 00:56:58,880
guys. Every everyone's moving off the TV. Maybe they'll get intented at some

804
00:56:56,160 --> 00:57:03,359
point. And what was their name? Ariel. Maybe Ariel will figure out some way.

805
00:57:00,880 --> 00:57:09,040
Oh, that would be tough. That would be tough. I'm pretty sure they'd lose that fight.

806
00:57:06,799 --> 00:57:11,599
What's up next? Um, well, I wanted that to lead into uh here we go.

807
00:57:10,880 --> 00:57:16,559
Right here. Uh, oh, is that is that the article? Awesome. I couldn't see that for so I

808
00:57:15,200 --> 00:57:24,240
can't see that for some reason. Where is that? Oh, it's way down at the bottom.

809
00:57:19,200 --> 00:57:26,799
There we go. Okay, so here we go. So,

810
00:57:24,240 --> 00:57:31,280
again, it's not good enough and the situation is terrible. So, this is from

811
00:57:29,200 --> 00:57:35,359
slash dot. Actually, there was I had a better article on it before, but

812
00:57:32,640 --> 00:57:39,599
whatever. The point is Hulu, apparently worried that too many non- US residents

813
00:57:37,280 --> 00:57:44,640
are using cheapVPN services to watch its US programming have started blocking IP

814
00:57:42,319 --> 00:57:49,200
address ranges belonging to known VPN services. Hulu didn't announce the ban,

815
00:57:47,119 --> 00:57:52,640
but users of affected VPNs are getting this message. Based on your IP address,

816
00:57:51,040 --> 00:57:56,799
we noticed you are trying to access Hulu through an anonymous proxy tool. Hulu is

817
00:57:54,799 --> 00:58:00,480
not currently available outside the US. If you're in the US, you'll need to

818
00:57:58,480 --> 00:58:04,559
disable your anonymizer to access videos on Hulu. So the problem in there now

819
00:58:02,960 --> 00:58:12,799
there's there's the link I meant to put in there now. That's okay. So the problem here is that

820
00:58:08,079 --> 00:58:14,960
it denies access to Hulu from people who

821
00:58:12,799 --> 00:58:19,920
are in the US just because they want to use a VPN to have a slightly more

822
00:58:17,760 --> 00:58:27,119
anonymous internet browsing experience which is okay. Like that's fine. Um, the

823
00:58:24,160 --> 00:58:32,160
other issue here is that this again, so HBO, it's not good enough to kind of go

824
00:58:30,319 --> 00:58:36,400
like, oh yeah, well, like some of our old stinky content that is still good,

825
00:58:34,799 --> 00:58:40,480
but quite frankly, if you were that interested in watching The Sopranos,

826
00:58:38,160 --> 00:58:45,440
you've probably already seen it. Yeah. Um, like some some of our old stuff,

827
00:58:42,880 --> 00:58:51,680
it's like, yeah, it's okay. We need legitimate ways to access premium

828
00:58:48,559 --> 00:58:55,280
content in a timely manner. Blocking

829
00:58:51,680 --> 00:58:57,520
things and holding on to things is not

830
00:58:55,280 --> 00:59:00,480
going to last forever. And I wish we would just hurry up and get over it. I

831
00:58:59,040 --> 00:59:05,599
can't even remember what it was, but I tried to watch a video last night or the

832
00:59:02,720 --> 00:59:09,680
night before on some website and it was like, "You can't watch this because

833
00:59:07,119 --> 00:59:13,920
you're in Canada." And I was like, "Oh geez." piece and then as I'm going to

834
00:59:11,520 --> 00:59:17,680
close the site, it has a popup which is like, "Can you answer our survey about

835
00:59:16,079 --> 00:59:24,079
using our website?" And I was like, "Yes, I hate everything."

836
00:59:21,359 --> 00:59:28,319
Like, this is so stupid. I can't use your website. It's a pretty big problem.

837
00:59:26,160 --> 00:59:32,559
It's so frustrating. I I like it's not clear

838
00:59:30,559 --> 00:59:36,000
to me what the solution is because I mean, you know, part of the problem is

839
00:59:34,079 --> 00:59:41,520
that advertisers aren't going to want their advertising impressions wasted on

840
00:59:38,640 --> 00:59:46,160
people who can't even benefit from their find a monetization platform that works

841
00:59:43,359 --> 00:59:49,760
so that ads are different on when it's in being viewed in a different country.

842
00:59:47,440 --> 00:59:55,280
So your solution is to create a a ginormous, you know, advertising network

843
00:59:52,880 --> 00:59:59,160
that gets puts ads everywhere. I don't think anything like that exists.

844
00:59:59,440 --> 01:00:04,160
At first I thought you were serious. I was like what?

845
01:00:02,720 --> 01:00:09,440
It's one of those things where to me if the issue is is advertising and

846
01:00:06,640 --> 01:00:13,920
licensing then figure it out. But what the real issue is is protecting the

847
01:00:11,839 --> 01:00:20,240
providers the the existing relationships with providers that are geospecific and

848
01:00:16,960 --> 01:00:22,960
geospecific just has to go. It was

849
01:00:20,240 --> 01:00:28,400
stupid back when certain game consoles worked in certain regions.

850
01:00:25,839 --> 01:00:33,760
I know. And it's stupid now. It the whole thing is stupid. DVD region locks

851
01:00:30,880 --> 01:00:37,599
are stupid. Everything is stupid. You create the content, you get it in front

852
01:00:36,079 --> 01:00:41,440
of the eyeballs, you collect the advertising revenue. If the model needs

853
01:00:39,520 --> 01:00:46,160
to change, the model needs to change. Yeah. Um, so

854
01:00:44,559 --> 01:00:51,119
it's just frustrating and like I'm I'm honest. I I could have VPN to watch that

855
01:00:48,720 --> 01:00:55,359
video. I could have figured it out, but I was just like, no. Speaking of which,

856
01:00:53,440 --> 01:01:00,319
speaking of VPNs, I actually haven't that the way that I It's funny. The way

857
01:00:57,599 --> 01:01:05,680
that I did my Hulu Plus integration not that long ago on Alinus Tech Tips video

858
01:01:02,720 --> 01:01:11,040
was by using Hotspot Shield, our other sponsor to let me access it so I could

859
01:01:08,640 --> 01:01:16,160
watch the videos. And I haven't actually tried again since this news came out

860
01:01:14,240 --> 01:01:21,040
like hours ago to find out if Hotspot Shield is one of the ones affected. But

861
01:01:18,480 --> 01:01:24,640
but anyway, when it comes to Netflix anyway, or you know, at least other

862
01:01:23,200 --> 01:01:28,400
video streaming services that aren't specifically blocking VPNs, I can say

863
01:01:26,720 --> 01:01:33,119
with certainty that Hotspot Shield is the fast, easy way to access content

864
01:01:30,799 --> 01:01:39,520
that is locked out of your region. So, Hotspot Shield anonymizes you and also

865
01:01:36,559 --> 01:01:43,359
provides you with an IP that is based in a completely different location. So, you

866
01:01:41,440 --> 01:01:48,640
they have UKbased ones, they have US-based ones. So if you want to go on

867
01:01:46,000 --> 01:01:52,640
comedy central.com for example, you can watch whatever videos you want, just

868
01:01:50,559 --> 01:01:56,480
boom, make sure and you enable hotspot shield. You can actually turn it on and

869
01:01:54,079 --> 01:01:59,359
off. And uh so you just kind of turn it on whenever you want to use it. You turn

870
01:01:57,839 --> 01:02:04,720
it off whenever you want to play games and you don't want your ping times offend offended affected by the fact

871
01:02:03,440 --> 01:02:09,520
that you're redirecting all of your traffic through a US-based server. And

872
01:02:07,599 --> 01:02:12,720
um there you go, guys. You can save 20% on their elite service, which is the one

873
01:02:11,200 --> 01:02:17,440
that I recommend by the way. The free service is ad supported, so it exists,

874
01:02:15,280 --> 01:02:21,359
but it has ads. So, if you want sort of the cleanest possible web browsing

875
01:02:19,280 --> 01:02:26,079
experience, save 20% by heading over to bit.ly/hsshare

876
01:02:23,040 --> 01:02:27,680
for 20% off. Use offer code lionus.

877
01:02:26,079 --> 01:02:34,160
Thank you hotspot shield for sponsoring today's episode of the WAN Show. We've

878
01:02:30,880 --> 01:02:35,920
also got Barnacles. Get out of here.

879
01:02:34,160 --> 01:02:40,000
That was from Barnacles last week who was weighing in on our G750 Jay-Z's.

880
01:02:38,640 --> 01:02:43,040
Isn't that awesome that we have like matching laptop? What's that guy's name? Who? Who hides

881
01:02:42,160 --> 01:02:48,640
behind the fence? Yeah, we'll have a Wendle. No, the guy. No, where he's facing.

882
01:02:47,280 --> 01:02:52,160
Yeah. Oh, well, Wendell from Tech Syndicate does it, too. I know. He never shows his face,

883
01:02:50,880 --> 01:02:56,480
but it's more Wilson. Yeah, we'll So, we'll have You'll still hear us.

884
01:02:54,319 --> 01:02:58,960
Um, it's all right. It's not great. Yeah, it's the audio is not great. So,

885
01:02:57,839 --> 01:03:04,480
maybe we'll just we'll we'll go with this. So, the G750 Jay-Z is the next

886
01:03:01,680 --> 01:03:10,799
evolutionary step in the G750 series from ASUS. And what it basically brings

887
01:03:07,440 --> 01:03:13,440
to the table is a lot closer to desktop

888
01:03:10,799 --> 01:03:17,839
grade performance and a lot closer to desktop pricing than we've ever really

889
01:03:15,680 --> 01:03:22,880
seen before. Now, we had some people question our desktop. You remember the

890
01:03:21,119 --> 01:03:25,839
Yeah, you ran the benchmarks. Okay. So, we had some people question our desktop

891
01:03:24,400 --> 01:03:30,400
when we did our comparison because what we discovered was that matching this

892
01:03:28,000 --> 01:03:35,119
feature for feature, spec for spec, it was going to cost us about 200 less to

893
01:03:32,240 --> 01:03:40,559
build an equivalent desktop in terms of sort of, you know, the similar Intel CPU

894
01:03:38,319 --> 01:03:44,079
and a GPU that performs about the same and all that stuff. But this one

895
01:03:42,640 --> 01:03:46,160
actually performed within what it was about 70 to 80% of the performance of

896
01:03:45,680 --> 01:03:50,640
the desktop. I I said on the stream though that if we went for just performance on the

897
01:03:49,119 --> 01:03:56,720
desktop, I could have smoked it. Yeah, we were going for feature. We were going for feature parody. So, a

898
01:03:54,319 --> 01:04:00,960
lot of the things that we included are things that maybe you wouldn't choose,

899
01:03:58,880 --> 01:04:03,680
but you still have to acknowledge that they're features that are going to

900
01:04:02,079 --> 01:04:07,359
matter to some people, and they're features that do cost money. Like, for

901
01:04:05,280 --> 01:04:11,520
example, we could have bought the cheapest possible motherboard, but we

902
01:04:09,599 --> 01:04:15,119
didn't. We bought an ASUS motherboard because we were looking for quality

903
01:04:13,359 --> 01:04:19,520
parody and then we bought one with Thunderbolt because this laptop has

904
01:04:17,520 --> 01:04:24,960
Thunderbolt which is a feature that some people use. So that's that's that's all

905
01:04:22,400 --> 01:04:29,920
there is to it. We threw in, you know, a $20 webcam budget with the desktop

906
01:04:27,440 --> 01:04:33,039
because a lot of people use webcams. This notebook includes a webcam, so

907
01:04:31,839 --> 01:04:36,799
we're going to have to include a webcam to make sure it's fair. Because while

908
01:04:35,200 --> 01:04:40,559
you guys might not look at that and go, "Oh, well, it's, you know," you might look at that and you go, "Well, oh,

909
01:04:39,200 --> 01:04:45,039
that's not the hardware I would have bought, therefore it's not fair." Well,

910
01:04:43,039 --> 01:04:50,000
the laptop's available in different configurations. This is the one we

911
01:04:46,880 --> 01:04:51,839
happen to have, so we have to build

912
01:04:50,000 --> 01:04:58,839
something that's equivalent to it. So, that's basically all there is to it. It

913
01:04:53,760 --> 01:04:58,839
runs extremely quietly at idle. Here,

914
01:04:59,359 --> 01:05:05,200
that's our microphone. He put the vent. Yeah, he put the vent of the laptop like

915
01:05:02,799 --> 01:05:07,760
inside of the fur of our whatever this is called. It's called a dead cat.

916
01:05:06,480 --> 01:05:12,720
I don't like calling it that. I know it's called a dead cat.

917
01:05:10,000 --> 01:05:15,440
Anyway, so the point is it is extremely quiet when you're not doing anything

918
01:05:13,839 --> 01:05:20,160
intensive. It runs cool when you're doing crazy intensive stuff. And I think

919
01:05:18,319 --> 01:05:24,079
is it fair to say you were blown away by how well it performs?

920
01:05:21,680 --> 01:05:26,799
Yeah, I I I'll be completely honest while doing this ad integration, which

921
01:05:25,520 --> 01:05:30,880
might not be the greatest thing, but I generally don't like laptops. But I've

922
01:05:29,039 --> 01:05:34,160
used this a couple times now and like when we used it in Boston to output

923
01:05:32,160 --> 01:05:37,200
videos really fast which is really nice and I used it to play I don't even

924
01:05:36,000 --> 01:05:41,440
remember what quite a few different games with my buddy Victoria and never

925
01:05:39,839 --> 01:05:45,359
had a single problem. I think this was actually faster than his desktop.

926
01:05:43,760 --> 01:05:50,119
You took this on a trip to Victoria? Nope.

927
01:05:47,119 --> 01:05:50,119
Seriously,

928
01:05:53,520 --> 01:05:58,720
it's company property, man. You can at least tell me. I didn't. I was talking

929
01:05:57,119 --> 01:06:01,920
about my laptop. No, you weren't. It doesn't even have a

930
01:06:00,480 --> 01:06:08,000
video card in it. It does, actually. So, we've managed to make it serious.

931
01:06:06,480 --> 01:06:13,920
We've managed to make it this far into the integration without even explaining. So, it's got a Core i7 4700HQ. It's got

932
01:06:12,000 --> 01:06:18,559
an 880M, which is actually just about equivalent to a GTX 770. Delivers a

933
01:06:16,559 --> 01:06:22,960
great gaming experience. It's still portable even though it's obviously not

934
01:06:20,640 --> 01:06:28,799
a Zenbook. And there you go, guys. is the ASUS G750. Jay-Z, sponsor of today's

935
01:06:26,799 --> 01:06:32,960
episode. I can't even believe you. Jay-Z would have just owned his own to

936
01:06:30,880 --> 01:06:38,160
bring it to Victoria. Yes, Jay-Z the rapper would have

937
01:06:36,640 --> 01:06:44,119
You know what's You know what's the worst part is I'm going to have to listen to this joke for another five

938
01:06:41,119 --> 01:06:44,119
weeks.

939
01:06:44,480 --> 01:06:53,920
I'm not going to give up. Speaking of jokes that lasted longer than five

940
01:06:48,079 --> 01:06:57,039
weeks, Plus integration on YouTube,

941
01:06:53,920 --> 01:07:01,039
Google has allegedly, well, no, it's

942
01:06:57,039 --> 01:07:02,880
happened. Google has cut between 1,

943
01:07:01,039 --> 01:07:08,720
and,200 people from the Google+ project and

944
01:07:05,680 --> 01:07:11,760
reassigned them to other divisions with

945
01:07:08,720 --> 01:07:15,200
a huge chunk of them going over to the

946
01:07:11,760 --> 01:07:17,440
Android side of things. So that means

947
01:07:15,200 --> 01:07:21,760
that products like Hangouts, for example, they're not being cut. They're

948
01:07:19,680 --> 01:07:28,720
still going to exist. They're just going to be less focused on Google+ and more

949
01:07:26,079 --> 01:07:33,520
tightly integrated into Android or or other YouTube or Google projects. Sorry,

950
01:07:31,119 --> 01:07:37,839
I got YouTube on the brain. So, one of the one of the reasons for this,

951
01:07:36,000 --> 01:07:42,880
actually, we don't have a clear idea about the reason, but one of the reasons

952
01:07:39,599 --> 01:07:45,680
for this that I think is just how much

953
01:07:42,880 --> 01:07:48,880
negativity there's been around Google+ and how it's been forced on users. It's

954
01:07:47,440 --> 01:07:54,079
one of the few things that Google's really done that has made literally

955
01:07:51,280 --> 01:07:57,760
everyone mad. Like, the entire internet was upset about this. Google has always

956
01:07:55,920 --> 01:08:02,000
been really, really good at making something and then just having it exist

957
01:08:00,480 --> 01:08:05,760
and people find out about it and then people do their own marketing around it.

958
01:08:04,079 --> 01:08:09,680
They've always been incredibly good at that. And that might have worked for Hangouts

959
01:08:07,599 --> 01:08:13,359
if it wasn't such a giant piece of crap. Yeah, Google+ is terrible. Hangouts,

960
01:08:11,599 --> 01:08:16,719
did I say Hangouts? I'm sorry. Okay. No, I I'm okay with Part of Hangouts is terrible.

961
01:08:15,280 --> 01:08:21,520
I'm getting better. I'm I'm more okay with Hangouts now. I still don't like the SMS integration. I still don't like

962
01:08:20,080 --> 01:08:25,040
the fact that it doesn't have a proper desktop. You need to fix that. I can't use it as

963
01:08:23,759 --> 01:08:29,520
my main thing until it's on all platforms. So, okay. Okay. So, so hold on. But

964
01:08:27,600 --> 01:08:36,080
Google+, sorry, giant steaming pile of garbage. I mean, honestly, I'm not the

965
01:08:33,839 --> 01:08:39,600
best at navigating social media websites. I hardly know how to use

966
01:08:37,839 --> 01:08:45,120
Facebook. The only thing I know how to do is to reply to people who post on my

967
01:08:42,480 --> 01:08:50,880
posts and post on my page. Other than that, I figured it all out at one point

968
01:08:47,600 --> 01:08:54,719
and I like integrated my Twitter feed

969
01:08:50,880 --> 01:08:56,560
and I did all this stuff and then

970
01:08:54,719 --> 01:09:04,480
I forgot everything because I don't use any of that stuff cuz I don't care. Like

971
01:08:59,120 --> 01:09:07,040
I don't care that my cousin's second

972
01:09:04,480 --> 01:09:12,080
nephew's nephew. I'm really tired. My like like my

973
01:09:09,600 --> 01:09:16,560
cousin's third cousin had a birthday. I don't care. So, I basically don't even

974
01:09:14,640 --> 01:09:19,279
open it other than to manage the Linus Tech page. Um,

975
01:09:17,679 --> 01:09:23,279
you can like filter people out of your So, I forgot how to use all that stuff.

976
01:09:21,040 --> 01:09:28,319
Google+ I couldn't even figure out in the first place. And not because I'm an

977
01:09:26,480 --> 01:09:31,440
idiot and I can't figure out how to add someone to a circle and post some

978
01:09:29,839 --> 01:09:36,080
something that they can see. What I couldn't figure out was how to make it

979
01:09:33,440 --> 01:09:41,040
part of a workflow for me. How to integrate it into what I'm doing on

980
01:09:37,839 --> 01:09:44,719
Twitter and Facebook. how to manage it

981
01:09:41,040 --> 01:09:47,040
so that it is correctly tied to some of

982
01:09:44,719 --> 01:09:52,000
my YouTube channels but not my other ones and so that I can have people

983
01:09:49,040 --> 01:09:56,400
administering it. And these are the logistical problems that I had with

984
01:09:53,759 --> 01:10:00,640
Google+. The fact that it was a little bit confusing in the first place because

985
01:09:58,560 --> 01:10:04,640
nothing's really labeled. So yeah, I imagine once you're a Google+ genius,

986
01:10:03,120 --> 01:10:09,280
it's pretty quick to navigate, but nothing's really correctly labeled in

987
01:10:06,320 --> 01:10:16,000
the first place. And second, because of Google's history of permanently tying or

988
01:10:13,440 --> 01:10:20,719
untying accounts to each other and being fundamentally broken from then on, I was

989
01:10:18,480 --> 01:10:25,600
afraid to experiment. And so unless I created an entire new

990
01:10:23,679 --> 01:10:30,640
batch of YouTube channels, an entire new Google+, and like trial and errored it,

991
01:10:28,560 --> 01:10:35,280
it just wasn't going to work. And that's the problem. Pretty big problem.

992
01:10:32,640 --> 01:10:40,719
Pretty big problem. If you if you expect a social network to work, you're going

993
01:10:38,320 --> 01:10:46,880
to have to have influencers on it. I'm already in your ecosystem, Google. I'm a

994
01:10:43,520 --> 01:10:48,560
YouTuber, okay? And you can't manage to

995
01:10:46,880 --> 01:10:51,120
capture me. That's a problem. It's pretty bad.

996
01:10:50,080 --> 01:10:55,360
It's terrible. You know, when when when when they first started talking about how they're going

997
01:10:53,600 --> 01:10:58,320
to integrate Google+ with everything and how it was going to be this giant ecosystem, I was really excited.

998
01:10:58,000 --> 01:11:03,600
Yeah. And then I was like, "Wow, this is bad." And now I'm no longer excited. It could

999
01:11:02,880 --> 01:11:09,280
have been amazing. Should we explain why we're both tired and why laughing at your jokes hurts?

1000
01:11:07,600 --> 01:11:11,440
Uh, it's going to have to do with the poll. So, let's let's finish up first

1001
01:11:11,199 --> 01:11:16,480
here. Okay, I think we kind of are. We're kind of done. There's a couple other things. I just thought this was

1002
01:11:14,960 --> 01:11:19,440
awesome. This is posted on the forum. All of Denmark has been recreated in

1003
01:11:18,640 --> 01:11:23,760
Minecraft. What? Posted by Joners now. Not now. Okay,

1004
01:11:22,000 --> 01:11:30,719
this has kind of been done before. Like the UK did a topographical map, but no,

1005
01:11:27,440 --> 01:11:32,960
no, no, no. this is the Denmark like

1006
01:11:30,719 --> 01:11:38,080
buildings and stuff. So, they're releasing it. Uh the only the only

1007
01:11:35,679 --> 01:11:43,760
things that have been changed to to make it not completely uh sandbox is they

1008
01:11:41,440 --> 01:11:48,560
have removed explosives and they have there's one other thing.

1009
01:11:46,560 --> 01:11:50,960
And all the roofs are flat. That's it. Other than that, it's Denmark.

1010
01:11:50,560 --> 01:11:57,120
Wow. Isn't that amazing? That's pretty cool. I love it. I think that's fantastic.

1011
01:11:54,960 --> 01:12:03,360
That is actually really cool. Uh, and then I had one other thing I think,

1012
01:11:59,360 --> 01:12:05,280
right? Um, okay. Someone someone figure

1013
01:12:03,360 --> 01:12:09,040
out the logistics and kickstart this. I wanted to make it myself, but I give up

1014
01:12:06,880 --> 01:12:12,480
because I just don't have time. And if you can give me like a couple bucks for

1015
01:12:10,719 --> 01:12:16,239
the idea, then I'd appreciate that. Otherwise, just make it and send me one.

1016
01:12:14,640 --> 01:12:20,480
And if you can't even manage that, then just make it and I'll buy one because I

1017
01:12:17,760 --> 01:12:26,880
really need this. I want a smart lamp. Okay, lamps. The only innovation that

1018
01:12:24,159 --> 01:12:31,040
has existed in the lamp market has been aesthetic design and putting different

1019
01:12:28,880 --> 01:12:38,400
kinds of light bulbs in it. What I need and someone please make this for me is

1020
01:12:33,199 --> 01:12:41,520
an LED smart lamp that is that is for

1021
01:12:38,400 --> 01:12:43,840
your devices. Okay, so I think maybe the

1022
01:12:41,520 --> 01:12:48,480
Gen two product. Okay, maybe Gen two product gets wireless charging on one of

1023
01:12:46,880 --> 01:12:52,640
the levels. But basically the way I want the smart lamp to work is I want it to have a lamp on the top lamp shade. I

1024
01:12:51,199 --> 01:12:57,520
want it to look pretty nice, modern aesthetic. So maybe like white shade,

1025
01:12:55,120 --> 01:13:01,520
black structure. And basically, I want the entire thing to be kind of shaped

1026
01:12:59,040 --> 01:13:06,000
like this and have shelves on each level. And then down one side, maybe you

1027
01:13:03,760 --> 01:13:10,880
can turn that into like some kind of of a stylized thing. So one side's thicker.

1028
01:13:08,159 --> 01:13:14,400
I want cable management. And then I want the whole smart lamp to have one plug

1029
01:13:12,320 --> 01:13:19,120
that goes into the wall and then maybe a base that has a whole bunch of USB ports

1030
01:13:17,040 --> 01:13:22,880
in it. So, what you can do is on your shelves, you can have little wires

1031
01:13:21,120 --> 01:13:26,159
coming up so that basically all you do is you you can plug all of your devices

1032
01:13:24,719 --> 01:13:31,760
into your smart lamp so that they don't all take up a bunch of space on your nightstand. That's what I want. It needs

1033
01:13:29,760 --> 01:13:36,880
to exist. It couldn't be that expensive. It couldn't be that difficult to build.

1034
01:13:33,840 --> 01:13:40,880
But there is, for some reason, there's a

1035
01:13:36,880 --> 01:13:42,960
crazy shortage of multiple hub chargers.

1036
01:13:40,880 --> 01:13:47,120
Ant has one that's pretty good. There's another one that's pretty good. But why

1037
01:13:44,960 --> 01:13:51,760
isn't there one that just has like six, seven, eight ports, all of which are 2.1

1038
01:13:49,840 --> 01:13:56,480
amp capable with all the latest charging schemes? Please, someone make this for

1039
01:13:54,320 --> 01:14:00,480
me and then follow it up with one where the bottom one is the large wireless

1040
01:13:58,159 --> 01:14:03,760
charging pad and I think slides everywhere. You might not even have to follow it up

1041
01:14:02,480 --> 01:14:06,159
with that. That could just be like the more expensive tier.

1042
01:14:05,840 --> 01:14:10,400
I think because that also doesn't sound hard to set up. So yes,

1043
01:14:09,120 --> 01:14:15,440
like at all. Lamp with lamp with hub would like it.

1044
01:14:13,920 --> 01:14:17,520
people asking what happened to my hand. That actually ties in pretty well to the

1045
01:14:16,960 --> 01:14:25,360
next thing as well. Yeah, that's coming later. So, um, do you want to do Okay, here. Do

1046
01:14:22,640 --> 01:14:30,400
you want to do a random.org um prize winner pick for the HTC1 M8s?

1047
01:14:28,719 --> 01:14:34,960
Sure. What's the number range? Which uh Oh, here. No, no, it's okay.

1048
01:14:32,000 --> 01:14:37,440
Here, just um use my computer. Okay,

1049
01:14:36,080 --> 01:14:41,920
I want that one. Okay.

1050
01:14:40,159 --> 01:14:44,560
So, just do it do it in our standard way. So, uh, random

1051
01:14:43,440 --> 01:14:48,640
I know random.org random page and then random person on

1052
01:14:46,719 --> 01:14:50,880
the page. And then guys, we're going to validate to make sure that you haven't

1053
01:14:50,159 --> 01:14:54,640
posted twice. Do we know how many pages there are? Yes, we do. It's on the forum.

1054
01:14:53,760 --> 01:15:00,480
We know how many pages. 490. I know. We got a lot of entrance.

1055
01:14:58,880 --> 01:15:04,960
Oh, no. And HTC has confirmed. They were super

1056
01:15:02,320 --> 01:15:09,199
nice about it. Again, not not reading the fine print for giveaways, you guys.

1057
01:15:07,600 --> 01:15:13,120
Uh, you were supposed to click the bit.ly link that HTC gave us. Yeah, I'll

1058
01:15:11,679 --> 01:15:18,000
I'll do that. Uh, you were supposed to click the B.ly link in order to qualify

1059
01:15:16,320 --> 01:15:22,320
for us to have two phones to give away. We needed to get 10,000 clicks. We have

1060
01:15:19,840 --> 01:15:26,640
over 10,000 entries and yet we don't have over 10,000 clicks, but HTC was

1061
01:15:24,880 --> 01:15:29,520
super cool about it and they gave us two phones anyway. So, what are terms? They just have to

1062
01:15:28,640 --> 01:15:34,560
post in here at all. They have to post in here at all without double posting. So,

1063
01:15:32,560 --> 01:15:37,199
so the the content of the message is not Nope. Don't care. Okay.

1064
01:15:35,920 --> 01:15:42,719
It's supposed to contain their favorite thing about the 1M8, but come on. Whatever.

1065
01:15:41,040 --> 01:15:46,480
We're not going to draw someone and then not give them the award. We're just going to We're just going to scold them

1066
01:15:45,199 --> 01:15:51,800
for not paying attention. So, scold everyone for not paying any

1067
01:15:48,800 --> 01:15:51,800
attention.

1068
01:15:54,320 --> 01:15:59,040
210. Of course, 210 of what?

1069
01:15:57,840 --> 01:16:05,440
It's page 210. Oh, okay. Cool. So, yeah, we're picking

1070
01:16:01,360 --> 01:16:08,320
those winners, guys. Stay tuned.

1071
01:16:05,440 --> 01:16:12,080
Picking them winners. All about them winners. And we are also going to

1072
01:16:10,400 --> 01:16:14,719
explain why my hands are black. Oh, are you out?

1073
01:16:14,239 --> 01:16:19,520
Yeah. Uh, is the fastest possible ready to rock?

1074
01:16:17,679 --> 01:16:22,800
You are the man, man. Four. Have a great weekend.

1076
01:16:30,719 --> 01:16:37,760
per page. Okay. Yep. Sorry. I could have told you that,

1077
01:16:35,280 --> 01:16:44,159
but I was not listening to you cuz I don't care. Number 11.

1078
01:16:40,800 --> 01:16:47,760
Got to find him now.

1079
01:16:44,159 --> 01:16:52,239
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven,

1080
01:16:47,760 --> 01:16:53,600
eight, nine, 10, 11. George Hart, the

1081
01:16:52,239 --> 01:16:58,320
best thing is the build quality. No replacement for metal.

1082
01:16:55,520 --> 01:17:04,000
Nice. Yeah, metal. Yeah, there we go. Now I put up these two. I'm

1083
01:17:01,120 --> 01:17:10,000
like, nope, that's hanging loose. Got to fix that one. Okay, so do I just

1084
01:17:06,480 --> 01:17:12,480
message him? I don't think there's Yeah.

1085
01:17:10,000 --> 01:17:17,000
Uh, whatever message later. Yeah, it's all good. I'm going to copy the name down though.

1086
01:17:17,679 --> 01:17:23,520
You don't think there's what? Uh, I don't remember.

1087
01:17:21,760 --> 01:17:26,000
Sure. Okay. So, are we going into the thing now? Uh, no. You got to pick one more.

1088
01:17:25,360 --> 01:17:30,640
Another one? Yeah. Pick another winner. We got two phones, man.

1089
01:17:28,560 --> 01:17:32,880
Okay. 420 it was for pages. Uh, 490, I think.

1090
01:17:31,760 --> 01:17:37,120
490. Yep. 490. The result is

1091
01:17:36,480 --> 01:17:40,560
129. Can they even see that? Oh, I don't know. I can zoom in on it.

1092
01:17:39,920 --> 01:17:44,560
No, it's okay. Probably doesn't matter. They trust us. What was it? 129.

1093
01:17:43,600 --> 01:17:51,679
129. Yep. Checking. Oh, yeah. They can see it. Never mind. It's all good. So, page 129. Here we go,

1094
01:17:48,719 --> 01:17:55,440
guys. HTC18. Just in case people are confused, I'm

1095
01:17:53,040 --> 01:17:58,239
URL editing to get to the page. Screw clicking next that many times. 20 per

1096
01:17:57,199 --> 01:18:02,000
page. Here we go. Second phone winner.

1097
01:18:01,600 --> 01:18:05,000
Nine. Nine.

1098
01:18:06,640 --> 01:18:13,440
I feel sorry for anyone that we're scrolling over right now.

1099
01:18:10,000 --> 01:18:15,120
Seven, eight, nine.

1100
01:18:13,440 --> 01:18:21,520
Let me recount that just in case because I laughed partway through. One, two,

1101
01:18:17,679 --> 01:18:22,239
three, four, five, six, seven, eight, n.

1102
01:18:21,520 --> 01:18:26,640
Yeah. Okay. All right. 8878.

1103
01:18:25,440 --> 01:18:29,640
There's an N in there. Oh,

1104
01:18:30,480 --> 01:18:37,679
I like the 1080p screen and build quality and but Battery Buri.

1105
01:18:36,880 --> 01:18:42,080
Better. Yeah, Buri and cameras and speakers. And I liked the video about it. So, he likes

1106
01:18:41,280 --> 01:18:49,440
everything. Apparently, a ber is kind of like a wh house where you have to take care of yourself.

1107
01:18:45,520 --> 01:18:52,400
Oh, no. That's horrible.

1108
01:18:49,440 --> 01:18:56,320
Wow. Or a place where you uh you get stuff to

1109
01:18:54,880 --> 01:19:03,600
feed fish. Yeah, there we go. That's Yep, that's

1110
01:18:58,719 --> 01:19:05,120
it. Oh, these stupid stupid high bit

1111
01:19:03,600 --> 01:19:09,600
rate clips. These aren't going to play over wireless.

1112
01:19:06,880 --> 01:19:13,199
Oh, that's that's that's super unfortunate. Okay, hold on a second.

1113
01:19:11,440 --> 01:19:17,600
Okay, well, I'm gonna I'm gonna find a clip for you guys that um here. Okay,

1114
01:19:15,840 --> 01:19:21,760
you know what? Why don't you do like drag that one over a Twitter blitz or something?

1115
01:19:20,320 --> 01:19:26,159
I have another topic I can talk about. Do you? Okay. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Do a topic. Do a topic.

1116
01:19:23,760 --> 01:19:30,480
All right. Is this going to work? Whoa. Yeah, that should be fine.

1117
01:19:27,440 --> 01:19:32,400
So, where is it? Let me get to this. Bit

1118
01:19:30,480 --> 01:19:37,120
Torrent is suggesting that Netflix should move to peer-to-peer networks uh

1119
01:19:35,040 --> 01:19:41,600
because of all the crap that's been going around right now over people

1120
01:19:39,440 --> 01:19:46,159
charging Netflix, like ISPs charging Netflix and ISPs charging other people

1121
01:19:43,440 --> 01:19:48,719
for premium bandwidth lanes and all the net neutrality issues that are happening

1122
01:19:48,159 --> 01:19:53,520
right now. That may still be resolved at some point, but for now are not.

1123
01:19:52,239 --> 01:19:57,440
But for now or not. So, they're suggesting that, like I just said,

1124
01:19:55,280 --> 01:20:00,960
Netflix goes to a peer-to-peer network. Um, the reason why we hadn't covered

1125
01:19:59,040 --> 01:20:05,920
this topic yet is because I have no notes about it at all, but it's been

1126
01:20:03,920 --> 01:20:11,600
proved that this could work because of stuff like Popcorn Time. Imagine you had

1127
01:20:09,440 --> 01:20:15,199
Popcorn Time, but on the scale of Netflix, I don't think the bandwidth

1128
01:20:13,600 --> 01:20:20,000
issues would even have a problem be a problem because uh Popcorn Time seemed

1129
01:20:18,480 --> 01:20:26,320
fast enough. I never even ended up trying it, but from people that I know that tried it, it no one had any

1130
01:20:23,600 --> 01:20:31,600
problems watching videos in high high quality. So, this would totally work and

1131
01:20:29,840 --> 01:20:37,040
it actually does totally make sense. It does pose a problem though um as that

1132
01:20:35,120 --> 01:20:39,199
would be like super easy as you're storing the file on your computer,

1133
01:20:38,880 --> 01:20:44,239
right? And I don't think right now with Netflix, even if you view it through a

1134
01:20:42,719 --> 01:20:48,960
website, it's just streaming. You're not actually saving a file or anything,

1135
01:20:46,239 --> 01:20:50,719
right? Yeah. No. So, is this working fine now?

1136
01:20:49,520 --> 01:20:55,920
Yeah. Yeah, this is working. Actually, the solution was just to plug in wired. By the way, don't gunk up the uh

1137
01:20:54,159 --> 01:21:02,080
Yeah. Okay, here we go. So, couple of things.

1138
01:20:58,800 --> 01:21:05,040
So, number one, actually, before we uh

1139
01:21:02,080 --> 01:21:08,800
hold on before we get too far into this, first up is guys, uh we need your help

1140
01:21:07,920 --> 01:21:13,199
because we have a shoot. The link is in the dog.

1141
01:21:11,679 --> 01:21:18,400
Yeah. Which browser are you using? Firefox. Okay. Right. That figures. Okay. Link is

1142
01:21:16,400 --> 01:21:23,360
in the doc. Okay, so guys, we are posting this in the where is it? Oh,

1143
01:21:21,199 --> 01:21:27,920
I hate that how sometimes it has the drive favicon and sometimes it has a

1144
01:21:26,000 --> 01:21:34,960
little document one. It's ridiculous. Yep. Okay, so there is a problem on the

1145
01:21:31,760 --> 01:21:36,640
internet right now on Twitter

1146
01:21:34,960 --> 01:21:41,760
where the problem is that here I'm just going

1147
01:21:39,440 --> 01:21:44,719
to post this guys. We need y'all I posted that as Luke in in the Twitch

1148
01:21:43,360 --> 01:21:51,199
chat. We need everyone to get on the Twitch chat. Click that link. Um, we

1149
01:21:47,840 --> 01:21:54,960
were actually losing this straw poll

1150
01:21:51,199 --> 01:21:56,800
earlier today for which tech YouTuber

1151
01:21:54,960 --> 01:22:03,600
would be the last one standing in a winner takes all free-for-all fight. And

1152
01:22:00,880 --> 01:22:10,080
first of all, this is a problem because my team as of May 1st will contain six

1153
01:22:07,520 --> 01:22:17,600
people. So, we would obviously win. Number two, our team has this massive

1154
01:22:14,560 --> 01:22:20,639
hulk of a warrior specimen, so we would

1155
01:22:17,600 --> 01:22:25,360
obviously win. So, I need you guys to

1156
01:22:20,639 --> 01:22:26,800
take care of this poll because And if

1157
01:22:25,360 --> 01:22:30,800
you're on the fence, if you've already voted for someone else or if you're on

1158
01:22:28,719 --> 01:22:34,400
the fence about voting at all, what I need for you guys is to here, I'm just

1159
01:22:33,280 --> 01:22:41,600
going to I'm going to keep posting this. I need for you guys to check this out because this is is from the shoot uh

1160
01:22:39,199 --> 01:22:46,639
that we were on yesterday where we were dressed up and where my hands got all

1161
01:22:44,320 --> 01:22:51,440
covered in black marks that I actually can't remove and the reason why both of

1162
01:22:48,800 --> 01:22:57,120
us are incredibly sore today but should tip you over the edge and help us secure

1163
01:22:54,719 --> 01:23:02,639
your vote. So, if you want to just keep posting the Yeah, you handle that while

1164
01:22:59,360 --> 01:23:04,000
I show them what went on yesterday. So

1165
01:23:02,639 --> 01:23:07,840
that first I'll give you guys the view from a distance here. All right. So

1166
01:23:06,880 --> 01:23:12,159
did you watch this one already? I haven't watched this one. I don't know. It's pretty good.

1167
01:23:10,400 --> 01:23:15,679
I don't know how how great how great it is. So this is this is all

1168
01:23:14,639 --> 01:23:20,000
Is this just preamble set up? Yeah. Okay. So preamble preamble.

1169
01:23:18,159 --> 01:23:23,000
There you go. Starts soon. Okay.

1170
01:23:25,520 --> 01:23:33,080
So this is for this is for an upcoming commercial that we're making. We we do

1171
01:23:29,679 --> 01:23:33,080
that now apparently.

1172
01:23:36,159 --> 01:23:41,199
I don't know if there's audio. I don't want there to be audio. Hold on.

1173
01:23:39,679 --> 01:23:45,960
I don't think there's audio. Is this clip 426? I don't know.

1174
01:23:42,960 --> 01:23:45,960
Okay.

1175
01:23:46,400 --> 01:23:49,960
I don't think so.

1176
01:23:53,280 --> 01:23:57,560
Like to see Logan take this on.

1177
01:23:58,480 --> 01:24:07,000
I think we go off screen on this one. I'm not. Let's see. Why are they sore

1178
01:24:04,000 --> 01:24:07,000
today?

1179
01:24:16,000 --> 01:24:20,400
This one might not be as good as some of the other ones. It's not. That's why I asked you what

1180
01:24:19,679 --> 01:24:26,080
clip number it is. Oh, okay. I'll grab the other clip after

1181
01:24:24,639 --> 01:24:30,400
you appear on the other side of his head. Yeah, that might not be the best clip.

1182
01:24:28,880 --> 01:24:33,040
It's not. That was like the first one we did, wasn't it? Oh, okay. Okay, hold on. Hold on. It

1183
01:24:32,320 --> 01:24:37,600
gets a lot better. Okay, let me find a better clip. Hold on. Hold on. I'll be back. Anyway, guys,

1184
01:24:36,080 --> 01:24:41,120
go vote. Post the link. Post the link. Post the link. Post the link.

1185
01:24:39,120 --> 01:24:46,960
Vote for the night. Sorry, which one is it? I think it's 426. Try that one. I can't

1186
01:24:45,120 --> 01:24:51,280
verify the exact number right now. And guys, let me tell you, when this

1187
01:24:49,679 --> 01:24:57,040
kind of stuff happens over and over and over again, Yeah, we did it many, many times.

1188
01:24:54,080 --> 01:24:58,880
It becomes pretty challenging. That one was missing some of the best

1189
01:24:58,480 --> 01:25:03,679
stuff. I know this one has a flying double kick and like

1190
01:25:02,000 --> 01:25:08,120
Hold on. Don't Don't spoil it. I think this is the good one. I'm not

1191
01:25:05,120 --> 01:25:08,120
sure.

1192
01:25:09,600 --> 01:25:13,880
Trust me, guys. This was real tiring.

1193
01:25:17,440 --> 01:25:23,040
And uh So, how much did your chain mail weigh?

1194
01:25:21,040 --> 01:25:26,760
I we didn't weigh it, but I'm guessing 40 45 pounds.

1195
01:25:39,520 --> 01:25:46,000
Oh, this is the one where I lost my helmet. Yeah. Or one of the ones where I lost my

1196
01:25:43,520 --> 01:25:51,239
helmet. The helmet, in spite of being not that strong, actually helped a

1197
01:25:48,080 --> 01:25:51,239
little bit.

1198
01:25:55,840 --> 01:26:01,920
Yeah, there you go. All right. All right. The the like close-up awesomeness is

1199
01:26:00,400 --> 01:26:05,920
Yeah. There's one more clip. We don't have any of the slow-mo, you guys,

1200
01:26:04,159 --> 01:26:10,320
cuz we captured that in RAW. Yeah. So, unfortunately, we can't share that

1201
01:26:08,639 --> 01:26:13,360
with you. But, I'm going to look for the clip of the uh of some of the more

1202
01:26:12,159 --> 01:26:18,320
close-up shots, and then you guys will see it. It looks

1203
01:26:15,920 --> 01:26:24,639
It looks interesting from that far away, but up close, uh, honestly, even the

1204
01:26:20,880 --> 01:26:28,960
guys filming it, so Brandon was like,

1205
01:26:24,639 --> 01:26:32,080
"Uh, okay, that's a lot faster and a lot

1206
01:26:28,960 --> 01:26:34,159
more intense when I'm right next to it."

1207
01:26:32,080 --> 01:26:37,760
He got hit once. Uh, what's this one? One, take three.

1208
01:26:37,040 --> 01:26:41,679
Hold on. Do you know what one you're looking for? Did Brandon get hit

1209
01:26:40,960 --> 01:26:46,480
once? Yeah. Did he by my axe? Really? Or wait, no, that was the

1210
01:26:44,880 --> 01:26:51,360
camera. Never mind. Yeah, my bad. The camera got hit once.

1211
01:26:48,320 --> 01:26:52,400
When did we do the long take?

1212
01:26:51,360 --> 01:26:55,120
I don't know. I don't remember. Wasn't that near the beginning of these

1213
01:26:54,560 --> 01:27:00,560
ones? I think so. That's what I'm looking for. But in the meantime, do we have any

1214
01:26:58,960 --> 01:27:05,679
topics to keep people busy with? I don't think so.

1215
01:27:02,960 --> 01:27:08,239
There's the uh winners of the build blog contest, but I kind of want to go

1216
01:27:06,880 --> 01:27:12,639
through that with you. I can bring it up on this laptop, though. Oh, okay.

1217
01:27:10,800 --> 01:27:15,120
Cool. because we're doing the voting thing now and there's all that stuff

1218
01:27:14,080 --> 01:27:19,920
going on, right? That makes sense.

1219
01:27:17,600 --> 01:27:25,440
No, I keep forgetting it's this laptop. Be careful.

1220
01:27:22,880 --> 01:27:30,320
Okay, so build logs. I was going to do this after, so just give me a sec, guys.

1221
01:27:27,199 --> 01:27:32,400
I will be ready, though. Um,

1222
01:27:30,320 --> 01:27:35,520
this is I hate the way that this camera adjust. This is terrible. If if you guys are

1223
01:27:34,320 --> 01:27:39,920
wondering why it's taking him so long, it's

1224
01:27:38,080 --> 01:27:45,600
dancing. Hey, Nights Danced.

1225
01:27:43,280 --> 01:27:48,560
Okay, I think this is the one, right? It might be. How long is it?

1226
01:27:47,600 --> 01:27:56,480
It's pretty long. Very possibly. Yep. Okay. Okay. So, here you go, guys.

1227
01:27:53,280 --> 01:27:58,560
Sneak preview. Sneak preview.

1228
01:27:56,480 --> 01:28:02,639
So, here we are up close. These costumes, they were cool until it like

1229
01:28:01,120 --> 01:28:07,440
rained and we'd been wearing them for six hours. So, we had we were essentially wearing

1230
01:28:04,719 --> 01:28:11,040
towels and then under chain and scale and then plate on top.

1231
01:28:13,360 --> 01:28:19,600
What's up? I'm just curious.

1232
01:28:18,400 --> 01:28:26,520
Is it going to take a while for him to catch up? Did I already do my goofy little dance?

1233
01:28:23,120 --> 01:28:26,520
I think so.

1234
01:28:29,360 --> 01:28:32,880
I think this is just repeated slam and Oh, is that all this is?

1235
01:28:32,560 --> 01:28:37,600
Yeah. Oh, this is the wrong clip. Well, whatever. Okay, you guys will have to

1236
01:28:36,000 --> 01:28:43,360
wait to see some of the crazier stuff later. stuff like that like legitimately hurt

1237
01:28:40,880 --> 01:28:47,520
though, especially when he hits me in the face.

1238
01:28:45,679 --> 01:28:51,679
So yeah, that was just us getting some clips of of like me hitting him. Okay,

1239
01:28:49,600 --> 01:28:55,840
well I'm sorry guys. You'll have to wait till we actually release our commercial.

1240
01:28:54,320 --> 01:29:01,440
Um something else that you guys should definitely check out is by far the best

1241
01:28:58,880 --> 01:29:04,320
promotional video that my team has ever made. I actually had very little

1242
01:29:02,960 --> 01:29:08,719
involvement. This thing was awesome with this one. But you know what? Maybe we'll just play

1243
01:29:06,880 --> 01:29:13,040
it on the stream. Maybe we'll just play this one on the stream. Twitch does sometimes have problems just

1244
01:29:11,440 --> 01:29:16,960
like streaming YouTube videos for whatever reason. I don't know how that

1245
01:29:15,040 --> 01:29:21,920
even happens, but just a heads up. Um, it might work. We'll see.

1246
01:29:19,840 --> 01:29:24,239
Okay. Well, hold on a minute. Let me uh let me see if I can Where is Kingston's

1247
01:29:23,840 --> 01:29:27,239
channel? Nope.

1248
01:29:30,719 --> 01:29:38,480
So, this is actually posted on Kingston's YouTube channel.

1249
01:29:35,520 --> 01:29:42,000
I think they're under Kingston memory or Kingston technology. There we go. All

1250
01:29:40,639 --> 01:29:47,840
right, you guys. You guys should check this out. Check this out.

1251
01:29:45,440 --> 01:29:54,880
Wait, where is it? They Oh, that's weird. They posted it on Twitter, but I

1252
01:29:51,840 --> 01:29:57,440
don't actually see it here.

1253
01:29:54,880 --> 01:29:59,440
Bizarre. Um,

1254
01:29:58,080 --> 01:30:05,040
it is weird because it has way more views than like anything that's on there as well.

1255
01:30:02,000 --> 01:30:06,000
Yeah. Okay. A Uh, well, I'll tweet it

1256
01:30:05,040 --> 01:30:13,360
out later. Okay. Anyway, you you on that laptop need to go to the forum and then to the build log voting

1257
01:30:10,239 --> 01:30:15,360
thread. So, nope.

1258
01:30:13,360 --> 01:30:17,440
You're not streaming. Okay. You need to change accounts.

1259
01:30:16,560 --> 01:30:21,520
I need to what? Log out of mine. Oh, well, here. Just switch.

1260
01:30:20,960 --> 01:30:27,360
Sure. We'll do the old laptop switcherooni. Here you go.

1261
01:30:25,920 --> 01:30:31,920
Whoop. Oops. Sorry. Did I just get you in the junk?

1262
01:30:29,199 --> 01:30:35,920
Nope. It's close again. Just like the hammer.

1263
01:30:34,800 --> 01:30:38,880
Oh yeah. Or was it your foot? No, it was my foot.

1264
01:30:38,239 --> 01:30:46,080
Oh, okay. Yep. Junk foot. Yeah. Okay. So,

1265
01:30:42,880 --> 01:30:49,199
you are now here. It was Hivefire and

1266
01:30:46,080 --> 01:30:51,040
Project Rampage that won. So, Hivefire

1267
01:30:49,199 --> 01:30:55,840
is luckily the very first one on the list. Sweet. Wow. Look at that thing.

1268
01:30:54,639 --> 01:30:59,600
I haven't even seen this yet. Pretty ridiculous. We haven't done build logs of the week in a long time.

1269
01:30:58,239 --> 01:31:04,159
It is now builds of the month. Of the month. Yeah, that is of the month.

1270
01:31:02,880 --> 01:31:07,120
This is part of the reason why we made it build logs month. Unfortunately, last

1271
01:31:06,000 --> 01:31:12,800
time I checked, I don't know if it's still this way or not, but the build

1272
01:31:09,840 --> 01:31:15,840
logs actually for this coming month only had one submission. So, just so everyone

1273
01:31:14,320 --> 01:31:20,159
knows, if you want to be on build logs of the month, go to the forum um and

1274
01:31:18,320 --> 01:31:26,000
post your submission, read the rules because for this submission, I I let all

1275
01:31:24,480 --> 01:31:30,159
the people through that broke the rules, but for next submission, I made it very

1276
01:31:28,000 --> 01:31:33,520
clear who did it wrong. next submission, please do it correctly and then we'll be

1277
01:31:31,520 --> 01:31:37,679
we'll be good to go. This I like almost don't even know what to say.

1278
01:31:35,120 --> 01:31:41,040
It's crazy. So cool. Yeah, I mean different colors on every

1279
01:31:39,679 --> 01:31:46,320
Dominator module. Yeah. I mean, coloring the accents on this

1280
01:31:44,159 --> 01:31:49,920
motherboard looks outstanding. An insane amount of time went into this.

1281
01:31:48,080 --> 01:31:54,719
I mean, the amount the It's funny because stuff doesn't match, but it

1282
01:31:52,880 --> 01:32:01,120
almost looks better that way. Like we've got clear tubing, braided tubing. We've

1283
01:31:58,000 --> 01:32:03,679
got like a black and red and gray color

1284
01:32:01,120 --> 01:32:09,120
scheme here with black, yellow, red, orange here. And like

1285
01:32:06,880 --> 01:32:12,800
Oh, it's just it's just utter chaos. It actually plays into the whole hive

1286
01:32:11,280 --> 01:32:15,360
fire idea because the fire is not going to look identical all over the place.

1287
01:32:14,400 --> 01:32:20,159
That's fantastic. It's really cool. So, we're doing a

1288
01:32:17,520 --> 01:32:23,199
little bit. These are all crazy good. Yeah, for sure.

1289
01:32:23,280 --> 01:32:29,920
I was very obnoxious by my you broke the rules thing. This was the other winner

1290
01:32:27,840 --> 01:32:33,360
was Project Rampage. So again, check out the check out this thread on the forum

1291
01:32:31,840 --> 01:32:37,600
and you can click through to their individual forum threads by doing so. So

1292
01:32:35,679 --> 01:32:40,960
you can go down to Project Rampage on this thread. Click on his link and then

1293
01:32:39,440 --> 01:32:44,719
you'll go to his full build log which will have all the pictures and all the details and all that kind of stuff.

1294
01:32:43,520 --> 01:32:48,400
These are just short snippets. Look at this bent tubing. Oh man, I love

1295
01:32:48,000 --> 01:32:56,320
that. It looks really good. That looks clean. I mean, I'm not I'm

1296
01:32:52,400 --> 01:32:59,760
not much of an overdone fittings guy,

1297
01:32:56,320 --> 01:33:01,120
and this to me is a little bit extreme.

1298
01:32:59,760 --> 01:33:04,400
You can see how many fittings are stacked on top of each other here. I

1299
01:33:02,880 --> 01:33:12,719
don't like unnecessary points of failure. So, that's one thing. Um, but

1300
01:33:10,480 --> 01:33:18,080
love the aesthetic. Love the way these PCI Express connectors come in. Uh,

1301
01:33:15,360 --> 01:33:24,080
absolutely love this bend right here. Like bringing it up and then away really

1302
01:33:21,040 --> 01:33:26,560
breaks up that normal look of trii or

1303
01:33:24,080 --> 01:33:31,280
triric crossfire graphics cards with this kind of this red line on the bottom

1304
01:33:28,480 --> 01:33:35,679
one. Looks fantastic. Memory cooling is again something that I'm not a huge fan

1305
01:33:32,960 --> 01:33:42,400
of because it's completely unnecessary. Although that GSkill RAM that we have,

1306
01:33:38,719 --> 01:33:44,159
the 2400 MHz 64 gig kit does benefit

1307
01:33:42,400 --> 01:33:47,840
from active cooling. though I shouldn't say completely unnecessary cuz I don't

1308
01:33:45,760 --> 01:33:50,800
want to put fans on things either. Yeah, that's true. Especially if you're

1309
01:33:49,280 --> 01:33:54,560
doing like a crazy watercol build, you want your fans in very specific locations.

1310
01:33:52,639 --> 01:33:58,800
Fantastic builds, you guys. Those are amazing. Absolutely awesome. So, I'm going to try

1311
01:33:56,400 --> 01:34:02,159
and get something worked out in terms of like build of the month badges or

1312
01:34:00,800 --> 01:34:08,960
something. We'll figure that out. That's probably not going to happen immediately. Um but yeah, the build of

1313
01:34:05,920 --> 01:34:10,320
the something is back. We're going to be

1314
01:34:08,960 --> 01:34:14,239
doing another one next month. Cool. Um, and yeah, remember to go on

1315
01:34:12,639 --> 01:34:17,120
the forum, vote, and submit, and you'll be Oh, yeah. And remember to vote for us in

1316
01:34:15,840 --> 01:34:20,880
the straw poll as well. Yeah, I'm gonna post that in the chat somewhere.

1317
01:34:19,120 --> 01:34:26,159
Yeah, hold on. I'm I'm gonna post it in the chat, too. Guys, go vote for the

1318
01:34:23,120 --> 01:34:28,400
Knights. Go vote for the PC Knights. All

1319
01:34:26,159 --> 01:34:31,520
right, there's a straw poll. Go vote. My Twitch chat is disconnected because

1320
01:34:30,800 --> 01:34:36,880
who knows? Uh, because I turned your Wi-Fi off. Oh, that makes sense.

1321
01:34:34,560 --> 01:34:41,679
That is Everybody go vote. Go vote. Am I allowed to spam my own chat? Um, I think

1322
01:34:39,840 --> 01:34:45,360
eventually Twitch gets mad. Really? I think so. I'm not sure.

1323
01:34:43,600 --> 01:34:49,040
Interesting. We should have a look at how the where the results are sitting

1324
01:34:46,719 --> 01:34:51,840
now. Oh, yeah. We're ahead by a solid couple thousand now. Thank you guys.

1325
01:34:51,040 --> 01:34:59,520
Thanks everyone. Yeah, you took care of that stunning

1326
01:34:55,199 --> 01:35:00,560
abomination of a pole result that had us

1327
01:34:59,520 --> 01:35:04,880
losing. All right. How long did we fight for yesterday in full armor?

1328
01:35:03,520 --> 01:35:09,440
Hours. Like seven hours.

1329
01:35:07,600 --> 01:35:11,920
No, I think it was more like five because we had the armor on for a while

1330
01:35:10,800 --> 01:35:17,040
and we were just like kind of doing stuff. But like you were doing tiring things like you moved all of our gear

1331
01:35:15,280 --> 01:35:20,239
from the one table to the uh to the bleachers. All right, good night

1332
01:35:18,800 --> 01:35:24,159
everyone. Thank you for watching the WAN Show. I changed my mind about garage

1333
01:35:22,400 --> 01:35:29,280
sale because I'm just really tired. I want to go home. Um peace out.

1334
01:35:27,120 --> 01:35:32,800
Bye everyone. I got to sleep last night. You didn't. So that's very justified.
