WEBVTT

00:00:00.080 --> 00:00:05.600
that feeling where you're about to go live and broadcast to like thousands of

00:00:03.520 --> 00:00:09.120
people, but like you're missing something. Something's not quite right.

00:00:07.359 --> 00:00:15.040
Like every single time we host the W show. Um,

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

00:00:16.880 --> 00:00:22.560
the Okay, something's probably wrong.

00:00:20.480 --> 00:00:27.279
No, we did a pre-show today. There's nothing wrong. Everything is fine.

00:00:25.840 --> 00:00:31.679
I'm not hormonal right now. We didn't test any of the scenes.

00:00:29.439 --> 00:00:33.760
Uh, that's okay. Most of them are the same. And

00:00:32.480 --> 00:00:36.880
you didn't test your laptops. Um, uh, no, we tested the laptop.

00:00:35.920 --> 00:00:40.800
Oh, we did? Yeah. Okay. Yeah, I tested it while you weren't looking. Boom.

00:00:39.040 --> 00:00:44.640
I test all kinds of things while you're not looking. That's awkward.

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

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

00:00:52.160 --> 00:01:02.719
that. Speaking of a whole thing on stuff, um,

00:00:57.840 --> 00:01:04.479
hold on a second. So, the WAN Show

00:01:02.719 --> 00:01:12.640
Soundcloud, I'm going to try and find it, but we actually have a WAN Show

00:01:08.159 --> 00:01:15.360
podcast feed now. So, Teran, uh, Taran

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

00:01:16.960 --> 00:01:22.640
can't just Google podcast. Hey, uh, Taran,

00:01:21.280 --> 00:01:27.119
can you send me the link to the SoundCloud thing so I can share it with

00:01:24.400 --> 00:01:30.479
the peeps? Thank you.

00:01:29.520 --> 00:01:33.600
Thewan show. Oh, we got it.

00:01:33.040 --> 00:01:39.280
Got it. Yep. Okay, so guys, it's

00:01:36.479 --> 00:01:44.960
soundcloud.comthewanhow. I don't think we are quite caught up yet

00:01:43.600 --> 00:01:50.399
because we don't really have like a smooth procedure for

00:01:48.000 --> 00:01:55.840
taking the video feed which is a stupid LV file with the desync audio and the

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

00:01:58.880 --> 00:02:04.960
WAN Show has been almost almost has been

00:02:02.399 --> 00:02:09.520
archived on Soundcloud. You can download it as a podcast. Listen to it in the car

00:02:07.600 --> 00:02:12.400
or wherever else people listen to podcasts. I've never been much of a

00:02:11.039 --> 00:02:15.520
podcast listener myself, but not even almost. This isn't into 2014

00:02:14.239 --> 00:02:20.800
yet. October 11th. Well, hold on a second. Are you sure

00:02:18.239 --> 00:02:22.879
it's not just like later on or something?

00:02:21.599 --> 00:02:27.840
I looked down there. It went further back. August 2013. July 2013. Well, whatever,

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

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

00:02:36.319 --> 00:02:41.680
our introductory topics, which unfortunately these guys already saw,

00:02:40.080 --> 00:02:47.360
which is a real shame because we accidentally streamed while we were

00:02:43.360 --> 00:02:48.800
creating our YouTube intro instead of um

00:02:47.360 --> 00:02:52.800
recording that locally and then uploading it. So, uh why don't we pick

00:02:51.040 --> 00:02:59.120
different highlights for the folks here? Right now, ASUS has demonstrated a VRAMm

00:02:56.959 --> 00:03:03.599
defroster feature. So, you're actually going to have a separate plug on your

00:03:00.560 --> 00:03:05.599
graphics card dedicated to heating up

00:03:03.599 --> 00:03:07.920
your memory, which sounds bad, but it actually makes

00:03:07.599 --> 00:03:13.760
sense. Yeah, we'll explain that later. Also, Intel has a new Thunderbolt controller

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

00:03:18.000 --> 00:03:23.760
single connector. They should be wearing my Holy Balls shirt, not my professional

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

00:03:27.280 --> 00:03:32.400
to be ending forcing Google+ integration towards everyone. And there's more

00:03:30.959 --> 00:03:38.799
details on that later. Yeah, that's huge. And then Facebook has actually finally

00:03:35.840 --> 00:03:41.760
been approved to actually buy Oculus. So, yeah, that'll be a short topic, but

00:03:40.720 --> 00:03:45.519
we'll talk about that later. All right, so without further ado, intro

00:03:44.000 --> 00:03:49.120
time. I really hope there's music. I didn't test it.

00:03:49.120 --> 00:03:53.480
All right, there's music.

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.

00:04:07.200 --> 00:04:11.920
This is what happens when people let me see the polls ahead of time. So, never

00:04:10.400 --> 00:04:15.840
show me your poll. All right. So, Hotspot Shield is one of our sponsors

00:04:14.080 --> 00:04:19.519
today. Hotspot Shield is the fast, easy, and expensive way to set up a VPN. You

00:04:17.919 --> 00:04:23.520
can access content that's outside of your region. You can browse more

00:04:21.199 --> 00:04:27.759
privately and all that great stuff. Also sponsoring the show today, actually our

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

00:04:32.160 --> 00:04:36.240
may or may not have guessed, G750 Jay-Z

00:04:35.280 --> 00:04:40.880
gaming laptops. Most gangster of all laptops. This Yeah. Yeah. Well, it kind of it

00:04:40.000 --> 00:04:45.040
kind of went that way. Drop the Jay-Z thing.

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

00:04:47.840 --> 00:04:53.360
joke. I made your joke in the video thumbnail of the actual review of the

00:04:51.600 --> 00:04:56.720
laptop. And I figured that would get you to stop

00:04:55.919 --> 00:05:01.040
making the joke. No, the joke isn't played out for you. The

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.

00:05:03.120 --> 00:05:09.039
That's fine. That makes me very, very pleased. So, thank you, ASUS Sand

00:05:07.600 --> 00:05:12.720
Hotspot Shield for sponsoring the show today. Let's get things going. Getting

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

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.

00:05:18.720 --> 00:05:24.880
I didn't need it, if you know what I mean. That was fine.

00:05:22.240 --> 00:05:26.880
If you know what I mean. You're all fine.

00:05:26.080 --> 00:05:32.160
Oh man. Hitting on the entire audience one step

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

00:05:35.199 --> 00:05:41.280
Kaca Day G DJ DG whatever it happens to

00:05:39.120 --> 00:05:44.720
be. What is that? Oh, I see it. No, no, it's okay.

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

00:05:50.960 --> 00:05:58.240
What are you doing? I'm modding certain people. Don't worry about it. Keep going.

00:05:54.720 --> 00:06:02.960
Oh, okay. You can mod people. I've heard

00:05:58.240 --> 00:06:04.479
of computer modding and car modding.

00:06:02.960 --> 00:06:07.919
Well, there's body mods, right? Body mods. Yeah. Like tattoos and piercings.

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

00:06:11.600 --> 00:06:22.720
point. So, there's an article on ASUS ROG that outlines why a graphics card

00:06:18.160 --> 00:06:25.199
could ever want a separate heater module

00:06:22.720 --> 00:06:30.000
for the memory. So, this is called their matrix memory defroster. And if you look

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,

00:06:32.880 --> 00:06:39.759
Internet Explorer. Okay. So, it shows you a graphics card that's being cooled

00:06:37.039 --> 00:06:43.520
by presumably liquid nitrogen or okay, looks like liquid nitrogen since there's

00:06:41.199 --> 00:06:49.520
a uh a canister here. So, being cooled by liquid nitrogen and it shows how this

00:06:46.880 --> 00:06:54.800
frost can accumulate on the back of the card. Now, memory can suffer from

00:06:51.919 --> 00:06:59.440
certain issues like uh cold bugs in much the same way that processors can. So,

00:06:57.039 --> 00:07:05.440
what this does is it actually keeps the memory at a temperature that isn't so

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

00:07:06.560 --> 00:07:14.240
overclocking out of it. And it's just one less thing for pro overclockers to

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,

00:07:16.960 --> 00:07:23.360
you know, about as as right as anything could ever be, just like anything I say.

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

00:07:25.120 --> 00:07:31.440
wrong about something on the show last week, and I I owe an apology to someone

00:07:29.280 --> 00:07:37.199
that I was wrong about something about um GPU versus CPU, actual total thermal

00:07:35.360 --> 00:07:41.840
output. I was going based on temperature, not based on the actual

00:07:39.440 --> 00:07:45.680
thermal output. So, GPUs, I have been informed, although we're probably going

00:07:43.840 --> 00:07:49.680
to just test it at some point, even though I I believe them. I believe them.

00:07:47.759 --> 00:07:52.639
So GPUs just have lower thermal density which means their temperatures are lower

00:07:51.280 --> 00:07:57.360
even though the thermal output is actually quite high. So there you have

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

00:07:58.479 --> 00:08:05.840
about anymore. Right. So the comment I made at the time was okay. So ASUS has

00:08:03.199 --> 00:08:11.599
developed a feature for their ROG class cards that is going to have probably

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.

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

00:08:17.759 --> 00:08:25.599
have maybe dozens of people who are actually going to use it. But you know

00:08:22.479 --> 00:08:27.120
what? If you, you know,

00:08:25.599 --> 00:08:32.479
it's easy to just throw up your hands and say, "Okay, it's impossible to

00:08:29.120 --> 00:08:34.399
innovate on graphics cards. It's hard to

00:08:32.479 --> 00:08:38.399
keep trying to find ways to push the envelope." And without, you know, guys

00:08:36.560 --> 00:08:43.519
like ASUS building in features like this, we wouldn't have things like

00:08:40.479 --> 00:08:45.279
built-in voltage checkpoints to actually

00:08:43.519 --> 00:08:48.640
monitor the voltage of your GPU. Something that is a very cool diagnostic

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.

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

00:08:54.880 --> 00:09:01.920
Canadian. Um or wherever you buy those things.

00:08:58.640 --> 00:09:02.880
American Tire.

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

00:09:06.080 --> 00:09:11.519
then it can really help you diagnose whether that voltage slider is actually

00:09:09.360 --> 00:09:14.480
doing anything, whether your card overvolts or undervolts. So all this

00:09:13.120 --> 00:09:18.800
stuff's really great. So without these kinds of innovations that might seem

00:09:16.160 --> 00:09:22.880
useless one by one, we wouldn't have the great graphics cards that we have today.

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

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

00:09:29.680 --> 00:09:35.040
trying to do a thing here. Uh, sorry. I was also trying to do a

00:09:33.680 --> 00:09:40.320
thing. I will find a next topic though. The next topic is Supreme Court decides

00:09:37.120 --> 00:09:43.680
on the future of TV featuring Ario.

00:09:40.320 --> 00:09:45.440
Oh, this is this is cray cray.

00:09:43.680 --> 00:09:50.160
Is it Ario or Arrow? Ario, I would guess. Sure. Okay.

00:09:47.279 --> 00:09:59.440
All right. So, this is actually probably the biggest topic of the day. So, the

00:09:53.200 --> 00:10:02.000
way that Ario works is by Okay, by it

00:09:59.440 --> 00:10:04.880
all depends on how you word it. So original article here is from

00:10:03.040 --> 00:10:09.200
washingtonpost.com. Although there was another one that was actually uh quite

00:10:07.200 --> 00:10:12.000
helpful when I was when I was reading up on this. Yeah. From the Guardian. And

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

00:10:16.640 --> 00:10:22.399
find from an unbiased source because

00:10:20.000 --> 00:10:28.480
this is a topic that is extremely polarizing. So let's start with how

00:10:25.120 --> 00:10:30.880
works. What it does is it takes OTAA TV

00:10:28.480 --> 00:10:36.640
signals. So, these are just broadcast TV signals that anyone with, you know, a

00:10:34.640 --> 00:10:41.120
duck, a hamster, a piece of toast, and most importantly, an antenna and a

00:10:38.720 --> 00:10:44.959
television, especially those last two. Yeah. And then anyone with an antenna

00:10:42.800 --> 00:10:49.440
and a television can tune into these signals and watch TV.

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

00:10:52.160 --> 00:11:02.079
ARIO does is it takes overthe-air television, lets you subscribe,

00:10:58.399 --> 00:11:05.279
rent an antenna in their array of

00:11:02.079 --> 00:11:07.440
antennas, rent because it's not

00:11:05.279 --> 00:11:12.480
subscription, they don't Okay, they let you rent an antenna in their antenna

00:11:09.440 --> 00:11:16.000
array, rent cloud storage space, and

00:11:12.480 --> 00:11:18.000
then it allows you to tune in to OTAA

00:11:16.000 --> 00:11:26.320
broadcasts through your internet connection and even use their um their

00:11:22.240 --> 00:11:28.880
rentable storage space as a PVR or DVR

00:11:26.320 --> 00:11:34.720
whatever video recorder without with a P with a D I don't care. So

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

00:11:36.560 --> 00:11:42.320
things that are worded as if they come off negatively or positively.

00:11:40.320 --> 00:11:48.240
Yeah. So, the issue is that other broadcasters

00:11:45.600 --> 00:11:53.279
are alleging that ARO is no different from cable and satellite firms that are

00:11:50.560 --> 00:11:58.720
required to pay fees to rebroadcast their shows. What ARIO is arguing is

00:11:56.160 --> 00:12:03.279
that a private broadcast, and this is this is like 40year-old rulings that

00:12:01.360 --> 00:12:09.120
they're going back to here, that a private broadcast is not the same as a

00:12:06.480 --> 00:12:15.200
public broadcast. because it's an individual user accessing content that

00:12:12.240 --> 00:12:18.880
they would have otherwise had if they just got an antenna and hooked up a DVR.

00:12:17.760 --> 00:12:24.320
Like they're not doing anything they couldn't have otherwise done there. It's

00:12:21.279 --> 00:12:25.600
so it's a private broadcast. So I I

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

00:12:28.639 --> 00:12:34.079
usual. And this topic is very convoluted and awkward and

00:12:32.399 --> 00:12:39.680
and the topic is convoluted. Whereas what the broadcasters are saying is that

00:12:36.480 --> 00:12:42.880
Ariel is taking copyrighted material and

00:12:39.680 --> 00:12:46.079
profiting off of it without paying

00:12:42.880 --> 00:12:48.880
anyone any fees. So they're just taking

00:12:46.079 --> 00:12:52.079
money and profiting off of it. And then advocacy groups for the other side are

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

00:12:56.320 --> 00:13:02.880
you guys, so start firing back at the broadcasters. You guys are just trying

00:13:00.560 --> 00:13:08.079
to maintain your whole double dipping business model and squash a potential

00:13:05.839 --> 00:13:13.200
competitor who really all they're doing is enabling consumers to use the

00:13:10.560 --> 00:13:17.920
technology or to use the content that is already there. Use the technology they

00:13:15.920 --> 00:13:21.120
have to access content that is already there and already accessible to them.

00:13:19.440 --> 00:13:25.839
One thing that was missing from both this Washington Post article and the

00:13:23.279 --> 00:13:29.600
other one that we're referring to here was actually posted by a commenter on

00:13:28.160 --> 00:13:33.120
one of the other articles I was reading about this who said, "Well, hold on a

00:13:31.600 --> 00:13:37.920
second. Something people are kind of missing here is that Ariel only allows

00:13:35.760 --> 00:13:43.600
you to subscribe within your own catchment area." So you you actually

00:13:40.240 --> 00:13:46.000
can't subscribe to Ario in, you know,

00:13:43.600 --> 00:13:50.800
New York if you're in Florida, for example. you you have to subscribe and

00:13:48.079 --> 00:13:54.399
of like anything there are workarounds and actually that's another big thing is

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.

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

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

00:14:05.680 --> 00:14:13.839
supposed to work is just as a way for you to access the OTAA content without

00:14:11.920 --> 00:14:19.120
subscribing to an expensive cable package that contains a lot of stuff

00:14:15.680 --> 00:14:21.279
that you likely don't care about.

00:14:19.120 --> 00:14:25.279
So, I see both sides of this one. So, that

00:14:23.199 --> 00:14:28.480
was the whole me struggling through the the explanation of what's going on. I

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

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

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

00:14:38.880 --> 00:14:44.880
creating premium content and someone is

00:14:41.920 --> 00:14:49.600
profiting off of the distribution of it, they are effectively undercutting the

00:14:47.040 --> 00:14:53.600
distribution partners who are paying you. And I can understand why you're

00:14:51.920 --> 00:14:58.720
going after someone who's pursuing that model. Uh, one of the justices that's um

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

00:15:01.120 --> 00:15:07.680
one of the US justices that has commented on the situation said that

00:15:05.279 --> 00:15:13.279
looking through Ario's business model, they seem to be it seems to be

00:15:10.000 --> 00:15:16.720
structured entirely to circumvent the

00:15:13.279 --> 00:15:18.800
existing laws and that the actual the

00:15:16.720 --> 00:15:21.760
essence of what they're doing is just flat outright wrong. And I'm

00:15:20.320 --> 00:15:26.959
paraphrasing a little bit here because I can't find the quote right now, but I

00:15:24.399 --> 00:15:32.560
don't necessarily I I see it from Ariel's side as well because what

00:15:29.600 --> 00:15:37.199
they're doing is just allowing people to use 21st century technology that they

00:15:35.279 --> 00:15:40.880
have. And I mean, quite frankly, you're you're already going to be helping out

00:15:38.959 --> 00:15:45.680
your local cable provider by paying for an internet subscription anyway. So,

00:15:43.279 --> 00:15:51.279
they're using technology that we have to just do something that already exists

00:15:47.600 --> 00:15:51.279
and do it a little bit better.

00:15:51.920 --> 00:15:56.959
One interesting thing that someone has brought up is that you can rig this up

00:15:56.000 --> 00:16:02.639
yourself. Yes. And that's that's the whole defense

00:15:59.600 --> 00:16:05.040
here for Ario is that this is something

00:16:02.639 --> 00:16:08.959
you can do yourself. Yeah. It's just that they're making it

00:16:06.880 --> 00:16:12.399
accessible and they're charging people a convenience fee.

00:16:09.920 --> 00:16:19.360
Yeah. Now, if they were if what they were doing was they were tuning into

00:16:14.880 --> 00:16:22.399
OTAA and then they were um and then they

00:16:19.360 --> 00:16:25.440
were like retransmitting

00:16:22.399 --> 00:16:28.160
it over the the airwaves or if they had

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

00:16:30.399 --> 00:16:37.839
twitch.tv, okay, where anyone can tune into their rebroadcast. That would be a

00:16:35.759 --> 00:16:42.880
public rebroadcast. But the way that it's structured is that antenna, you're

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

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,

00:16:48.639 --> 00:16:56.880
you are renting it. And that antenna is just for you. So they're not

00:16:53.920 --> 00:16:59.759
rebroadcasting it publicly. I think they're going to lose.

00:16:58.240 --> 00:17:03.600
I think so, too. But it's a really interesting argument. I think they're

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

00:17:05.919 --> 00:17:14.000
whack-a-ole where someone else will find

00:17:10.319 --> 00:17:16.319
a similar loophole and the conventional

00:17:14.000 --> 00:17:20.880
media guys are just going to have to keep knocking these little guys down one

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,

00:17:27.199 --> 00:17:34.080
Ariel. Yeah, sorry. Really tired. Ariel

00:17:31.120 --> 00:17:37.120
has already won a couple of cases in lower courts. This is the first time

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

00:17:42.000 --> 00:17:48.880
really could go either way. And I I think according to the letter of the

00:17:46.320 --> 00:17:51.919
law, Ariel is probably right currently. Yes. But like what I've been

00:17:50.559 --> 00:17:55.840
reading on some of what the justices have been saying is they might need to

00:17:54.000 --> 00:17:58.880
kind of fix things. This can't happen because when they wrote that law,

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.

00:18:03.120 --> 00:18:10.000
So now that it can happen, maybe the laws have to change, which is annoying

00:18:07.200 --> 00:18:13.120
to preempt to like after the fact change a law. I hate doing that with things

00:18:11.679 --> 00:18:16.960
like the COC on the forum and stuff because it's really annoying. But

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

00:18:19.520 --> 00:18:23.840
law about cyber crime 50 years ago when it doesn't exist?

00:18:22.880 --> 00:18:33.600
When it doesn't exist. Yeah. you know how. So I I totally

00:18:28.559 --> 00:18:35.440
understand the issue here because

00:18:33.600 --> 00:18:39.840
the entire business model of creating this content is based on getting

00:18:37.919 --> 00:18:45.200
kickbacks from the distributors of the content. I understand that. But on the

00:18:42.799 --> 00:18:50.160
other hand, I understand the argument that that system is fundamentally broken

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

00:18:51.600 --> 00:18:58.000
be the thing that shakes it up, but what I do know is that something

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

00:19:00.240 --> 00:19:07.679
the point where I will not pay to watch

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

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

00:19:12.960 --> 00:19:19.280
hockey game, I have to buy a cable TV subscription that includes a bunch of

00:19:16.720 --> 00:19:22.400
crap I don't care about and I have to pay a whole whack ton of

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

00:19:24.480 --> 00:19:30.080
it." For for big events like uh the Super

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

00:19:32.240 --> 00:19:36.960
we all don't have cable TV. None of us.

00:19:35.360 --> 00:19:41.039
And we all go to my parents. Well, it's funny because everyone talks about cord

00:19:38.400 --> 00:19:45.120
cutters, but there's a whole other the like the entire the group of people my

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

00:19:47.520 --> 00:19:53.039
time I've ever had a cable TV subscription that I've well I was going

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

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.

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.

00:20:01.280 --> 00:20:06.640
It was playoffs. That makes sense. I took the free trial and I was like,

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

00:20:08.240 --> 00:20:12.960
anyway. Yeah, exactly. My thing was I I was

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.

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

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

00:20:21.919 --> 00:20:28.720
calendar reminder and then I just I the the Shaw office is actually between mine

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,

00:20:30.000 --> 00:20:35.760
"Yeah, we're done." Like, do you still want your internet?

00:20:33.120 --> 00:20:38.240
Yeah. Yeah, I'm good with the internet. Thanks for the trial, though.

00:20:36.799 --> 00:20:42.320
So, I mean, for me, the fundamental problem here is that the is that the the

00:20:40.559 --> 00:20:48.640
providers, the cable providers in particular, can't decide how they want

00:20:45.200 --> 00:20:51.200
this to work. Okay. When it comes to TV,

00:20:48.640 --> 00:20:55.919
they want us to pay for large all you can eat packages

00:20:53.200 --> 00:21:00.480
and then just give us whatever we whatever we could possibly want. And

00:20:58.159 --> 00:21:04.240
then when it comes to cell phone and internet, by the way, in Canada anyway,

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,

00:21:06.320 --> 00:21:12.080
and internet. So, so when it comes to cell phone and internet, oh well, hold

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

00:21:14.240 --> 00:21:20.480
for the things you use. And I'm kind of sitting here going, "Okay, you know

00:21:17.440 --> 00:21:22.000
what? I get it either way. Okay, you

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.

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

00:21:28.080 --> 00:21:34.480
that stuff. But I understand your point. Okay, you want me to pay per usage

00:21:32.559 --> 00:21:38.559
because there's a certain amount of congestion on a network or whatever

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.

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

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."

00:21:47.760 --> 00:21:54.400
saying, "You got to give me options here because that just that does not that

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,

00:21:56.799 --> 00:22:05.200
"Okay, I want Sports Net, TSN,

00:22:00.960 --> 00:22:08.320
and like I don't know, Cartoon Network.

00:22:05.200 --> 00:22:09.360
It's like it I remember when when my

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

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

00:22:18.320 --> 00:22:23.600
done. Yep. So I don't care about like any of that.

00:22:22.320 --> 00:22:26.240
And my dad, my brother and I had overlaps on all of those and then that

00:22:25.520 --> 00:22:30.559
was about it. Right. And you guys never did end up getting one, did you?

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.

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?

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.

00:22:43.120 --> 00:22:49.280
All right. Cuz that makes it better.

00:22:46.480 --> 00:22:52.080
So, um, a security researcher has found that there was a back door at DSL

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.

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

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

00:23:03.039 --> 00:23:10.000
was. So essentially there was there was then a patch which fixed the problem.

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

00:23:11.760 --> 00:23:17.760
couldn't be removed very easily. So what it does is it allows you administrative

00:23:15.919 --> 00:23:22.559
access to the router. So all administrative controls you can control.

00:23:19.440 --> 00:23:24.559
So GG router um you can flash lights,

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

00:23:26.640 --> 00:23:32.000
aggressive. The way that the secret is removed is just literally by sending a

00:23:29.840 --> 00:23:35.919
knock. That knock though is in an Ethernet packet. So like a raw data

00:23:34.400 --> 00:23:40.640
Ethernet packet. So it can only be sent from inside the network or from an ISP.

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

00:23:45.360 --> 00:23:52.480
models of different routers it has been found on so far ranging from I believe

00:23:49.919 --> 00:23:58.559
like Lynxys and Cisco so both levels there and Netgear different routers. But

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

00:24:00.320 --> 00:24:08.799
problem is actually based around a piece of firmware that they all share. Um,

00:24:06.240 --> 00:24:12.320
yeah, it gives it it gives them root shell access for people that knows what

00:24:10.480 --> 00:24:16.480
that really means. So this is kind of scary just because everything in this

00:24:14.240 --> 00:24:19.440
form is scary right now um because of like what the NSA was doing. What were

00:24:17.760 --> 00:24:23.840
they up to last week, right? Heart bleed. So it's just like every single

00:24:22.159 --> 00:24:29.360
week it's just like one more terrible thing. Um, oh, I al I forgot Diamond.

00:24:27.760 --> 00:24:34.720
Diamond is also another brand that's having problem with them as well. That's

00:24:32.320 --> 00:24:38.559
actually pretty much it. So, there you go, guys. We don't have a

00:24:37.120 --> 00:24:42.559
solution for you or anything. No, because it it has to be fixed unless

00:24:41.200 --> 00:24:46.880
someone's going to make their own firmware, but I don't even know if these

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

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,

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

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

00:25:01.600 --> 00:25:06.640
have to change something. Does it sound bad or Yeah, a little quiet. Oh, okay.

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

00:25:08.320 --> 00:25:13.440
now. If you It's It's the source was from RS

00:25:11.679 --> 00:25:17.440
Technica. So if you want to see those routers and other stuff, go to the RS

00:25:15.039 --> 00:25:20.720
Technica article. Easter egg DSL router patch merely hides back door instead of

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.

00:25:24.400 --> 00:25:31.360
Absolutely fantastic. So, speaking of things that are absolutely fantastic,

00:25:28.480 --> 00:25:36.799
assumptions about the OnePlus 1. Very few people have actually had their hands

00:25:33.679 --> 00:25:39.840
on this incredibly

00:25:36.799 --> 00:25:44.799
confusingly named phone. I mean, what

00:25:39.840 --> 00:25:47.360
the heck? So, the company is OnePlus

00:25:44.799 --> 00:25:53.200
and then the phone is called the One. And it absolutely baffles me. As much as

00:25:49.440 --> 00:25:55.279
I as I hate to see uh needless lawsuits

00:25:53.200 --> 00:25:58.960
between companies, like I it just it drives me crazy. It baffles me that they

00:25:57.520 --> 00:26:02.159
can get away with this. Did is is HTC's the one or is just one,

00:26:01.919 --> 00:26:08.159
right? It's just one. It's the HTC one. Can we stop naming things one?

00:26:06.559 --> 00:26:10.559
Like they named their entire even company one plus.

00:26:10.080 --> 00:26:15.760
Yeah. So like any anyway anyway. So specs have been

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

00:26:20.000 --> 00:26:25.159
two. But this is one plus one.

00:26:26.960 --> 00:26:31.760
Breathing intensifies. You're you're you're freaking me out

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

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

00:26:37.039 --> 00:26:43.120
normal phone. And they're doing a weird invite-based system, but the full specs

00:26:41.600 --> 00:26:49.200
are out there. It uses a Qualcomm Snapdragon 801. It's got four Crate 400

00:26:46.559 --> 00:26:54.240
cores. They're clocked at 2.5 gigahertz, making it the fastest phone on the

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

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.

00:27:02.640 --> 00:27:07.760
It's got 401 pixels per inch in terms of

00:27:06.000 --> 00:27:11.679
its pixel density. It's got a 5 megapixel front camera with a 13

00:27:09.679 --> 00:27:18.159
megapixel rear camera. It's available in 16 gig or 64 gig configurations. They've

00:27:14.640 --> 00:27:22.400
all got 3 gigs of RAM and

00:27:18.159 --> 00:27:26.640
it's $299 for the 16 gig and a mere 3.49

00:27:22.400 --> 00:27:27.039
for a 64 gig phone. Very cool.

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

00:27:31.600 --> 00:27:38.720
much cheaper flash storage has gotten and yet how we're stuck with the same

00:27:36.960 --> 00:27:44.799
price points on these phones with the same capacity as like four years ago.

00:27:42.240 --> 00:27:48.720
And like this is fantastic, but that price jump of 50 bucks is they're

00:27:46.720 --> 00:27:51.919
they're still making money off that which is like that's still fantastic

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

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

00:27:58.559 --> 00:28:04.640
has an anodized faux metal rim and swappable back plate. It's going to be

00:28:02.320 --> 00:28:09.679
manufactured in the same factory as OPPO phones. It packs triple noise cancelling

00:28:06.960 --> 00:28:15.520
microphones for allegedly superb call quality and packs stereo speakers

00:28:12.159 --> 00:28:17.279
similar to HTC's one series. However,

00:28:15.520 --> 00:28:20.480
one extra thing is the the back is supposed to be removable and you're

00:28:18.720 --> 00:28:25.120
supposed to be able to customize your back similarly to the the Moto X

00:28:22.720 --> 00:28:28.159
customize your own X style thing where you can get like wooden styled ones and

00:28:26.640 --> 00:28:32.960
all these other stealthy ones as well. That's cool. Yeah. And then this is

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

00:28:35.440 --> 00:28:41.039
running a never settle campaign called

00:28:39.120 --> 00:28:47.120
talking about trademarks. Smash your phone. I know, right? Like

00:28:43.760 --> 00:28:49.919
AMD does that, man. Smash your phone.

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

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

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

00:29:01.600 --> 00:29:08.240
100 applicants to be the Smashers. Smash and share. Share a video of your Smash

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

00:29:10.960 --> 00:29:17.679
and three invites for other people to purchase the phone. Something that's

00:29:15.600 --> 00:29:22.480
actually a pretty hot item right now. People people want to buy these phones.

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

00:29:25.760 --> 00:29:30.240
There we go. There's a list of the qualifying phones which I can't find

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.

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

00:29:35.279 --> 00:29:41.440
qualifying smashable phones. So, a few problems here. Problem number one is

00:29:39.840 --> 00:29:47.039
that the vast majority of those smashable phones can probably be traded

00:29:43.760 --> 00:29:50.399
in for anywhere from $200 to $300. So,

00:29:47.039 --> 00:29:54.000
you could do the um environmentally and

00:29:50.399 --> 00:29:56.000
just generally responsible thing and

00:29:54.000 --> 00:30:01.919
trade in your phone and then just buy one. Number two, actually is is a sort

00:30:00.159 --> 00:30:07.039
of part of that last thing I just said is the environmental impact of smashing

00:30:04.799 --> 00:30:11.760
phones. I mean, some of the chemicals that that are in phone screens, phone

00:30:09.520 --> 00:30:16.000
batteries are things that should really be disposed of safely. Not just

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,

00:30:18.480 --> 00:30:22.559
remove the battery, put the backpack on so no one can tell, and then smash it

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

00:30:26.240 --> 00:30:32.240
remove the battery from that. Like this is this is like really brutal.

00:30:29.520 --> 00:30:36.799
Um, so that to me just smacks of irresponsibility.

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

00:30:39.520 --> 00:30:43.279
announce a contest and people just don't

00:30:42.880 --> 00:30:52.399
listen. Completely don't read. People can't listen for 20 seconds

00:30:47.600 --> 00:30:54.080
like at all. For example, the HTC1 M8

00:30:52.399 --> 00:30:58.399
giveaway. We've got two phones. I am announcing the winners during this show,

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

00:31:02.559 --> 00:31:09.360
video description. There are instructions there." The

00:31:07.039 --> 00:31:14.399
number of people who posted their favorite thing about the 1M8 under the

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

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

00:31:20.320 --> 00:31:25.679
great that you posted that. It actually generated a lot of great discussion. And

00:31:23.919 --> 00:31:30.799
maybe some people double posted. I know some people did, but guys, you're not in

00:31:28.640 --> 00:31:36.880
the giveaway. You got to pay attention. So, here we go. Example of not paying

00:31:34.000 --> 00:31:40.960
attention being a big problem. Ahead of the contest, people are already smashing

00:31:39.039 --> 00:31:45.279
their phones. This is an article on Android Authority where they complain

00:31:43.519 --> 00:31:50.000
about some of the same things that I really didn't like about this whole

00:31:47.039 --> 00:31:54.559
contest. So, uh, this was this was an Android Authorities, uh, article where

00:31:52.080 --> 00:31:58.640
apparently one of these guys here didn't even fully understand what product was

00:31:56.640 --> 00:32:05.519
being given away and thought that it was actually an HTC1. Yeah.

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

00:32:07.919 --> 00:32:15.840
painful to watch because unless OnePlus

00:32:10.960 --> 00:32:19.039
decides to do some some PR, you know,

00:32:15.840 --> 00:32:20.640
fixing here and give phones to the

00:32:19.039 --> 00:32:27.039
people who already smashed them before they knew they were entered. This guy

00:32:22.240 --> 00:32:31.279
just wrecked a perfectly good iPhone

00:32:27.039 --> 00:32:34.080
and it's dead now and he's not getting a

00:32:31.279 --> 00:32:37.120
OnePlus 1. So

00:32:34.399 --> 00:32:40.799
Oh, wow. Yeah. No, no. Okay. Yeah. Not recoverable.

00:32:38.080 --> 00:32:43.600
No. No. This will not be being used anymore.

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

00:32:45.440 --> 00:32:50.320
back. It's probably Nope. Snap a nap.

00:32:48.880 --> 00:32:54.799
Kind of brutal. I was looking at this earlier. Um, and I wouldn't be surprised

00:32:52.480 --> 00:32:58.640
if a massive amount of the entrance are Z10s because you can get those a lot

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

00:33:00.960 --> 00:33:07.039
to smash your phone first. Yeah. Just making sure people got that part.

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

00:33:08.559 --> 00:33:15.120
smash it if they get selected. Not that that's a good thing, but like I

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.

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

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

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

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

00:33:33.679 --> 00:33:38.880
phones that don't work right already and then they're going to smash

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

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

00:33:46.640 --> 00:33:52.720
whatever that guy. Um, Intel is

00:33:50.000 --> 00:34:00.159
allegedly working on a new Thunderbolt controller chip to drive two 4K displays

00:33:56.720 --> 00:34:03.039
at the same time. So, it will use PCI

00:34:00.159 --> 00:34:08.960
Express Gen 3, which means that hopefully by the time this rolls out,

00:34:05.440 --> 00:34:10.399
AMD and NVIDIA will be like comfortable

00:34:08.960 --> 00:34:14.800
enough with the level of performance that Thunderbolt is delivering to give

00:34:12.079 --> 00:34:19.040
us drivers to enable external GPUs because you can already hook up a

00:34:16.639 --> 00:34:24.320
graphics card on a PCI Express to Thunderbolt bridge that should work.

00:34:22.320 --> 00:34:27.040
It's AMD and NVIDIA not providing a driver that is causing it to not work.

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

00:34:31.200 --> 00:34:38.960
happens, we'll get that. What we'll definitely get is 40 Gbit per second

00:34:36.240 --> 00:34:43.679
bandwidth and enough to, like I said, to drive two 4K displays off of a single

00:34:41.520 --> 00:34:49.440
cable. I mean, that's one of the reasons probably why Apple has six Thunderbolt 2

00:34:47.119 --> 00:34:55.040
connectors on the Mac Pro. because it's not uncommon for a creative professional

00:34:51.440 --> 00:34:57.520
to have two, usually two, and often

00:34:55.040 --> 00:35:01.440
three or even more displays connected. So, even though we joke about the Mac

00:34:59.760 --> 00:35:04.880
Pro and we go, "Oh, that's all the external expansion it has." And you and

00:35:03.440 --> 00:35:09.200
there's that there's that awesome picture of of the then and now with the

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

00:35:10.880 --> 00:35:17.440
CD drive like connected externally and all the crap piled around it. We joke

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

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

00:35:24.320 --> 00:35:29.520
display yet off of a Thunderbolt connector or so,

00:35:27.839 --> 00:35:33.599
right? You can, sorry, you can do only a single 4K display off of a Thunderbolt

00:35:31.359 --> 00:35:39.200
connector. And with 4K coming down in price so quickly and so dramatically,

00:35:37.200 --> 00:35:41.760
running multiple 4K displays, it's going to be a thing really soon.

00:35:40.400 --> 00:35:45.359
One of the coolest things, too, is its ability to drive up to 100 watts of

00:35:43.599 --> 00:35:51.119
power. I know that's solid. So get this. I mean again like the

00:35:49.040 --> 00:35:56.800
notebooks of the future, right? Where you take I mean this has Thunderbolt

00:35:52.960 --> 00:35:59.359
like not Thunderbolt 40 gigabit per

00:35:56.800 --> 00:36:03.359
second charges off of things. So, the way this is going to work, guys, is

00:36:01.200 --> 00:36:09.839
you're going to plug into your your Thunderbolt enabled monitor that also

00:36:07.280 --> 00:36:14.480
has a Thunderbolt, you know, external GPU slot that also has a Thunderbolt

00:36:12.640 --> 00:36:19.599
everything else you're going to need. You're going to plug your laptop, one

00:36:16.480 --> 00:36:21.599
cable, your laptop will be charging, it

00:36:19.599 --> 00:36:26.720
will be running, it will be outputting to the display,

00:36:23.599 --> 00:36:28.800
and like all your other peripherals,

00:36:26.720 --> 00:36:34.240
mind blown. They need to start calling these things really cool names like

00:36:31.040 --> 00:36:36.640
Alpine out the the chip.

00:36:34.240 --> 00:36:40.960
I actually had a call with someone from Intel today and I found out how Intel

00:36:39.680 --> 00:36:46.320
does their code names. Really? Yeah. That's actually really cool.

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

00:36:48.000 --> 00:36:53.599
gave me two scenarios. So sometimes they

00:36:51.200 --> 00:36:57.520
the the the project lead, whoever owns the project, literally picks from a list

00:36:55.760 --> 00:37:02.240
of code names and goes, "That one seems pretty neat." And assigns it.

00:36:59.760 --> 00:37:05.119
Do you know how Devil's Canyon was done? No.

00:37:02.880 --> 00:37:08.800
There's a group within Intel that puts on, I believe it's Landfest is the

00:37:07.200 --> 00:37:12.640
events that they work on. And the way that the whole Landfest project works, I

00:37:10.640 --> 00:37:17.200
had no idea, and this is really cool, is that Intel employees who are passionate

00:37:14.560 --> 00:37:23.520
about gaming donate their time really. And then Intel pays but not the

00:37:20.800 --> 00:37:27.440
employees. They pay to a charity of the choice of the employees donating their

00:37:25.200 --> 00:37:32.240
time to the project. So Intel is ultimately still paying for all the

00:37:29.440 --> 00:37:36.079
Landfest stuff, but it's the employees who are truly passionate about it

00:37:33.599 --> 00:37:39.119
driving it and then Intel is turning that into a charitable donation.

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

00:37:44.160 --> 00:37:52.000
upcoming Intel uh CPU refresh, was named

00:37:48.400 --> 00:37:52.640
was by polling those guys.

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

00:37:55.200 --> 00:38:00.720
like the coolest one for an enthusiast grade product?" And they're like

00:37:59.200 --> 00:38:04.320
overwhelmingly Devil's Canyon. Devil's Canyon. And I was like, "Oh,

00:38:02.480 --> 00:38:07.760
that sounds badass." Yeah. So, like that's cool. I think that's fantastic.

00:38:05.760 --> 00:38:13.520
Just It's like Alpine Ridge, which sounds like a body wash.

00:38:10.000 --> 00:38:13.920
Or like maybe a sports refresher energy

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

00:38:18.079 --> 00:38:24.160
goggles. Yeah. Like I could see it being a piece of apparel.

00:38:21.599 --> 00:38:28.400
Definitely. But why not like Thor? Thor. Well, I think there's issues there

00:38:26.560 --> 00:38:32.800
with Marvel. But it's a Greek god.

00:38:30.079 --> 00:38:36.560
That's true. You shouldn't be able to. You're

00:38:34.079 --> 00:38:39.839
probably not wrong. But that's stupid that you're probably not wrong.

00:38:38.160 --> 00:38:43.920
Yeah. I don't like that. I mean, they wouldn't like it.

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?

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

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

00:38:55.040 --> 00:39:01.760
Thunderbolt 3, I guess, whatever we're going to call it, the 40 Gbit per second

00:38:59.599 --> 00:39:04.880
Thunderbolt connector would actually have to be a different connector,

00:39:03.440 --> 00:39:08.000
unfortunately. But there'll probably be some kind of an

00:39:06.720 --> 00:39:12.240
adapter system. I mean, the thing about PCI Express, which is what Thunderbolt

00:39:09.839 --> 00:39:15.680
is based on, is that it is forwards and backwards compatible. So, as long as you

00:39:14.160 --> 00:39:19.680
had a physical adapter, your older Thunderbolt gear should still be okay.

00:39:18.400 --> 00:39:24.400
Something that will be good news to folks who have heavily invested in Thunderbolt

00:39:22.800 --> 00:39:27.400
to whom I would say, why?

00:39:27.760 --> 00:39:32.960
I still don't quite understand why people buy Thunderbolt gear.

00:39:31.520 --> 00:39:35.839
It's so much more expensive. I know. But you're saying that's why

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

00:39:39.040 --> 00:39:43.440
it." We don't use anything that's Thunderbolt. We actually do own one Thunderbolt piece

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

00:39:47.599 --> 00:39:53.920
Western Digital. Oh, yeah. That's like a dual drive drive and uh

00:39:52.800 --> 00:39:58.000
it's kind of cool actually. Yeah. But we didn't pay for that.

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

00:39:59.760 --> 00:40:06.000
dock also we didn't pay for. Okay. I'll

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

00:40:10.320 --> 00:40:15.599
relevant again? Uh, no. Okay,

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

00:40:18.720 --> 00:40:25.839
what? Um, anyways, there's a there's a modif modifi modification kit thing for

00:40:24.000 --> 00:40:29.280
the Virtuix Omni. Right now, it's one package. Hopefully later it'll be a kit

00:40:27.760 --> 00:40:33.520
that consumers can buy, but right now it's upgrade existing Omnis.

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

00:40:36.560 --> 00:40:42.240
the UN with Rice University in Texas.

00:40:39.839 --> 00:40:47.280
It's R&D for possibly military training applications. It's not a consumer level

00:40:44.480 --> 00:40:50.560
thing, but I fully expect people to scream for it. So, it'll probably become

00:40:49.040 --> 00:40:54.560
a consumer level thing at some time. They said they may offer it, but they're

00:40:52.400 --> 00:40:57.920
not dedicated to anything right now. And like Lina said, it's going to be an

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

00:41:00.560 --> 00:41:05.599
kit, which is going to cost way more money. You just buy an upgrade kit,

00:41:03.680 --> 00:41:09.200
which could possibly be even more looking at the size of the thing, which

00:41:07.200 --> 00:41:13.440
we have only the one picture of. So, you can show that. Oops. Sorry, just poked

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

00:41:16.319 --> 00:41:23.680
lot more like the ghetto omnis that people have been making, having the four

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

00:41:26.000 --> 00:41:29.760
up and down with you, but then still provide support,

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

00:41:33.119 --> 00:41:39.920
that's part of the reason why it's more of a uh military training application

00:41:37.680 --> 00:41:45.280
idea and not necessarily consumer idea is even as an upgrade kit, I expect this

00:41:42.079 --> 00:41:47.599
to be really expensive. So, current

00:41:45.280 --> 00:41:48.800
level omnis, you can run around and you can jump.

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

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

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

00:42:01.200 --> 00:42:07.680
the problem with them claiming jumping is one of the abilities is I fully

00:42:04.800 --> 00:42:12.319
expect if you did that all the time, you would end up breaking things or yourself

00:42:10.319 --> 00:42:14.880
because they have essentially if you've ever been longboarding or if you have

00:42:13.680 --> 00:42:19.599
friends that have been longboarding, if they have those longboarding gloves with

00:42:17.119 --> 00:42:22.800
the like slick plasticky kind of pad things on their gloves, you're

00:42:21.200 --> 00:42:27.760
essentially wearing those on your feet on a plastic surface. So you slide a

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

00:42:30.240 --> 00:42:36.640
slides down. So jumping on that type of a surface if you're actually trying to

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

00:42:38.480 --> 00:42:44.960
say in there. If you do want it, I'm sure contacting Virtuix would help it

00:42:42.960 --> 00:42:48.319
come to the consumer end. Uh but just remember it's going to be really expensive.

00:42:46.560 --> 00:42:53.359
How would you feel as an Omni Kickstarter backer at this point? That

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

00:42:55.920 --> 00:43:02.880
being Yeah. We're focused on a sitting down experience, not on a moving around

00:43:00.480 --> 00:43:05.680
experience. So there's there's

00:43:04.160 --> 00:43:08.800
I know someone who backed it. Do you? Yeah. And like bought the whole thing.

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

00:43:14.960 --> 00:43:21.359
know. Um I would be paying a lot of attention to the the small groups. very

00:43:19.920 --> 00:43:25.040
small groups right now that are working on a I can't even call it ghetto

00:43:23.839 --> 00:43:34.079
solution because it has to be pretty advanced for this to work properly. Um,

00:43:29.599 --> 00:43:35.440
but like the the the the the moving of

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

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

00:43:44.400 --> 00:43:50.160
it's like hardcore strapped in, which is going to be highly uncomfortable,

00:43:48.160 --> 00:43:52.960
there's going to be mechanical lag because you're going to turn and then

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

00:43:55.040 --> 00:44:00.319
it shifting too much. And then motorized

00:43:58.560 --> 00:44:05.839
versions that detect your movement based off of the connect are going to have

00:44:02.240 --> 00:44:07.280
problems again. And there's Yeah, I

00:44:05.839 --> 00:44:11.440
don't know. They're they're trying to make something work, but none of the

00:44:09.359 --> 00:44:15.280
solutions are very feasible yet. And they're all aftermarket ones. Omni

00:44:13.280 --> 00:44:19.200
hasn't said anything, right? About it actually happening.

00:44:17.359 --> 00:44:23.839
You mean Oculus? No. Or Omni? Omni. Oh, okay. Sorry. Yeah.

00:44:21.520 --> 00:44:27.599
No worries. Virtuix, I should have said. Yeah.

00:44:26.480 --> 00:44:32.079
Huh. It's It's an interesting situation, but

00:44:30.000 --> 00:44:36.000
I just people do have to realize that that quote is very real. Um they're

00:44:34.400 --> 00:44:40.800
they're focusing the seated forward- facing this box of field of view from

00:44:39.359 --> 00:44:44.560
the camera position. I mean, cool stuff's going to happen in the future,

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,

00:44:46.000 --> 00:44:51.839
and I respect that. Yeah. Yeah. Um, I hope it happens fairly quickly, but

00:44:50.319 --> 00:44:57.920
yeah, I respect that. Wow, what's going on? Yeah, it's okay. Anyway, speaking of

00:44:55.280 --> 00:45:03.200
things that are are good, I guess, uh, the Facebook Oculus acquisition is a

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

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

00:45:10.480 --> 00:45:18.160
another Oculus um this is another Oculus story but it's

00:45:16.160 --> 00:45:24.400
one that leads into a very interesting conversation Oculus Facebook sees movies

00:45:21.839 --> 00:45:31.520
as the next big thing for Oculus Rift. So this is an article from Techraar

00:45:27.680 --> 00:45:33.040
and I would like for us to have a bit of

00:45:31.520 --> 00:45:37.760
a conversation here. We haven't we haven't primed this one at all. Um other

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

00:45:39.599 --> 00:45:44.400
nothing. But you know what? Here, why

00:45:42.720 --> 00:45:46.640
don't you do the facts and then we'll have the discussion. This one?

00:45:45.839 --> 00:45:50.880
Yeah. So, uh, what do you mean by facts?

00:45:49.280 --> 00:45:55.599
I mean the things in there. Okay. So, according to Corey, I can't

00:45:53.280 --> 00:45:59.119
say your last name. Facebook's VP of mobile engineering, virtual reality is

00:45:57.040 --> 00:46:02.800
destined to go well beyond gaming and movies seem to be the obvious next

00:46:00.880 --> 00:46:07.839
conquest. People have been talking about going to IMAX essentially and wearing an

00:46:05.680 --> 00:46:10.640
Oculus and how that experience could be with the the awesome audio and

00:46:09.599 --> 00:46:16.240
everything else that there is in an IMAX. Um, another quote by the same I

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

00:46:20.319 --> 00:46:28.640
about the intersection of Hollywood and virtual reality. I think we're going to

00:46:24.720 --> 00:46:30.000
I think we're going to see the next uh

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

00:46:33.119 --> 00:46:38.560
spectacular. So essentially there's just a lot of were interesting. One of the

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

00:46:40.640 --> 00:46:45.760
actually properly designed for a Rift by

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

00:46:48.400 --> 00:46:53.839
camera setup but what a lot of movies would use, which is like a prime camera

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

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

00:47:00.560 --> 00:47:05.920
going to be like people and stuff which would normally be behind the scenes.

00:47:03.920 --> 00:47:12.480
Well, if someone goes like this, what's going to happen? It's Yeah.

00:47:08.000 --> 00:47:15.440
So, in my mind, the only way for a VR

00:47:12.480 --> 00:47:20.319
film to work properly would be autonomous an autonomous array of

00:47:17.839 --> 00:47:26.880
relatively inexpensive um omniirectional cameras. So if and you

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

00:47:29.440 --> 00:47:35.599
much more advanced than they are. You're not going to be able to record sound

00:47:33.440 --> 00:47:39.119
with any I guess okay you could mic up everyone and everything but still that

00:47:37.599 --> 00:47:42.560
wouldn't help for ambient sound collection. So, you're going to need an

00:47:41.040 --> 00:47:48.960
autonomous array of drones, and then you're going to need to have a crazy

00:47:45.680 --> 00:47:51.839
sophisticated way of having each of them

00:47:48.960 --> 00:47:56.800
overlap each other's images enough to cancel each other out so that you can't

00:47:54.240 --> 00:48:00.480
see the drones or whether it's drones or whether it's something else, the way

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

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.

00:48:05.760 --> 00:48:12.800
So, for every camera positioned here, there's going to have to be one here and

00:48:10.319 --> 00:48:16.240
here so that we can see anything that would have been blocked by this one from

00:48:14.560 --> 00:48:21.839
this camera position here. Because someone has to be able for to for me for

00:48:19.200 --> 00:48:27.359
me for VR to be a way for me to compellingly be told a story, um,

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

00:48:30.480 --> 00:48:38.880
walk around in the environment. Which leads us to the other reasonable future

00:48:35.200 --> 00:48:44.079
scenario, which is maybe we just do away

00:48:38.880 --> 00:48:47.760
with sets and actors and the whole thing

00:48:44.079 --> 00:48:50.000
goes full CGI. Um, I mean, you're still

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

00:48:53.040 --> 00:48:57.599
it's still a little bit creepy effect,

00:48:56.720 --> 00:49:02.559
but not if it's not if it's designed to not look real.

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

00:49:04.000 --> 00:49:10.720
that still doesn't address any kind of um

00:49:08.480 --> 00:49:14.559
any kind of footage of anything that's like actually

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

00:49:16.880 --> 00:49:25.200
this could be the first the first technological thing that happens that

00:49:21.680 --> 00:49:28.880
really makes me feel old because I get

00:49:25.200 --> 00:49:31.760
the feeling much like anyone who, you

00:49:28.880 --> 00:49:36.960
know, kind of looked at MP3s or still looks at MP3s today and goes, "Well, the

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

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

00:49:43.920 --> 00:49:48.559
a compelling way to watch a movie for an hour and a half.

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

00:49:50.720 --> 00:49:56.559
out with a new medium, like let's look at video games. When video games first

00:49:54.079 --> 00:50:02.319
started being a really big deal, what a lot of people started trying to do was,

00:49:59.200 --> 00:50:04.400
and now I'm not saying Pong, I'm saying

00:50:02.319 --> 00:50:08.160
stuff beyond that. They tried making movies that were interactive. Like you

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

00:50:11.760 --> 00:50:18.559
on your DVD player video games because they were like movies and games. Yeah.

00:50:16.640 --> 00:50:23.040
The second you try to merge things like this, there's going to be the people

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.

00:50:24.720 --> 00:50:31.040
What people are going to have to actually do is create an experience

00:50:27.760 --> 00:50:33.760
focused around the idea that it's a

00:50:31.040 --> 00:50:36.160
movie for virtual reality. And it's going to have to be filmed

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

00:50:38.720 --> 00:50:43.200
made completely differently. Everything is going to have to be totally

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

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

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

00:50:56.559 --> 00:51:03.920
VR in order for like as camera technology changes. if you could watch

00:51:01.200 --> 00:51:08.079
the movie flat or if you could watch the movie from the perspective of any one

00:51:06.240 --> 00:51:11.839
character that you pick, like if you could cycle through or whatever else.

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

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

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

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

00:51:26.480 --> 00:51:31.680
what's your movie going to be? Yeah. That's another part of the problem. when

00:51:29.680 --> 00:51:35.280
I brought in sets and scripts and all that kind of stuff because he's not

00:51:32.960 --> 00:51:37.280
actually in that much of the movie. So, how do you make that a movie,

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

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

00:51:43.760 --> 00:51:49.520
raise cost by a lot. If you have to produce an entire movie from different

00:51:47.599 --> 00:51:54.160
people's perspectives, but the same feature length,

00:51:51.920 --> 00:51:58.240
that's a lot of editing and production. It sounds like a crazy Kickstarter

00:51:55.839 --> 00:52:01.520
project that just might work. Yeah, that's what it sounds like to me. It

00:51:59.839 --> 00:52:05.200
sounds like someone's going to try. Someone will try. Oh, definitely. Like

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

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

00:52:10.400 --> 00:52:17.920
going to happen. I'm pretty sure Facebook has made it extremely clear

00:52:13.440 --> 00:52:20.400
that they want this to happen. Um

00:52:17.920 --> 00:52:23.359
yeah, I don't know. It's going to be interesting.

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

00:52:25.520 --> 00:52:31.680
doesn't sound that appealing to me. gaming VR. Yeah, heads up. Or like

00:52:29.040 --> 00:52:35.359
definitely two thumbs up. Um, augmented reality VR. Oh, yeah. I'm so into that.

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.

00:52:38.640 --> 00:52:43.839
Me, too. But I don't see that as being very good for a while.

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.

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

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

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

00:53:00.640 --> 00:53:07.599
from Watchd Dogs. No. When you go around, I'm trying I'm I'm

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,

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,

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

00:53:21.200 --> 00:53:25.599
will it it like changes how the game plays

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

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

00:53:32.160 --> 00:53:37.839
legs and stuff and you just run around and jump around the city and just blow

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

00:53:40.000 --> 00:53:45.280
digital trip and I I don't remember exactly if there's like side effects or

00:53:43.520 --> 00:53:48.960
crazy things that can happen or anything like that. I haven't looked way too far

00:53:46.800 --> 00:53:53.359
into it, but like that kind of stuff would be really cool. Like altering that

00:53:51.440 --> 00:53:55.760
like alternate reality with the the football field and stuff if you take

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,

00:53:59.200 --> 00:54:04.559
but then all of a sudden there's spider tanks and helicopters and stuff and

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.

00:54:08.160 --> 00:54:13.839
All right. So, that's that's it for virtual reality stuff for today. Don't

00:54:12.800 --> 00:54:22.079
worry, guys. Yep. Um, Amazon Amazon has secured a deal to

00:54:18.000 --> 00:54:23.280
provide HBO premium content to Amazon

00:54:22.079 --> 00:54:30.000
Prime members. That title is You will be able to access HBO shows,

00:54:27.440 --> 00:54:36.480
not all of them. Um, HBO is going to be sticking to like a multi-year

00:54:33.200 --> 00:54:39.520
delay between when they release content

00:54:36.480 --> 00:54:42.160
and then when stuff's available sort of

00:54:39.520 --> 00:54:47.760
elsewhere. But what's amazing about this whole thing is this is this is HBO's

00:54:44.319 --> 00:54:51.680
first move towards any kind of purely

00:54:47.760 --> 00:54:53.839
digital distribution network. So, uh,

00:54:51.680 --> 00:54:58.160
HBO content has already been available as on demand, but this is the first time

00:54:56.319 --> 00:55:03.359
you're going to be able to stream it in an unlimited fashion using just your

00:55:01.280 --> 00:55:09.520
Amazon Prime membership. Now, Amazon did recently increase the price of Amazon

00:55:05.839 --> 00:55:11.440
Prime, but as you can already see, it

00:55:09.520 --> 00:55:15.680
looks like that was for good reason, and they are looking to add more value to

00:55:13.760 --> 00:55:20.000
that increased subscription in order to continue to justify it for people. So,

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

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

00:55:26.400 --> 00:55:31.520
Feet Under. Um, so all seasons of some

00:55:29.760 --> 00:55:35.040
of the some of the older stuff. It's going to have select seasons of newer

00:55:33.359 --> 00:55:39.599
stuff like True Blood. It's going to have some original movies like Too Big

00:55:37.040 --> 00:55:45.040
to Fail and You Don't Know Jack and some documentaries, some comedy specials from

00:55:42.559 --> 00:55:49.200
Ellen Degenerous and so folks like that. Uh, it's going to have some of the

00:55:46.319 --> 00:55:53.599
miniseries like Band of Brothers and there you go as an Amazon Prime member.

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

00:55:55.359 --> 00:56:00.240
Fire TV, then you I'm really off today. That's cool.

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

00:56:02.559 --> 00:56:11.839
that's great, but just plain not enough.

00:56:07.760 --> 00:56:13.599
Yeah, I h I HBO needs to figure it out

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

00:56:15.440 --> 00:56:20.960
Thrones was the most downloaded thing through Torrance ever? Didn't they win

00:56:19.599 --> 00:56:25.839
that twice or something? I think so. And like come on guys, maybe figure it

00:56:24.480 --> 00:56:29.920
out at some point in time. Get a website. I'll pay a subscription. I

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

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

00:56:37.119 --> 00:56:44.240
Thrones because I watched it at my parents house. Like I'd love to see it

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

00:56:46.400 --> 00:56:53.280
revolutionize in some form at some point in time. They have to. Like, come on,

00:56:51.760 --> 00:56:58.880
guys. Every everyone's moving off the TV. Maybe they'll get intented at some

00:56:56.160 --> 00:57:03.359
point. And what was their name? Ariel. Maybe Ariel will figure out some way.

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.

00:57:06.799 --> 00:57:11.599
What's up next? Um, well, I wanted that to lead into uh here we go.

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

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.

00:57:19.200 --> 00:57:26.799
There we go. Okay, so here we go. So,

00:57:24.240 --> 00:57:31.280
again, it's not good enough and the situation is terrible. So, this is from

00:57:29.200 --> 00:57:35.359
slash dot. Actually, there was I had a better article on it before, but

00:57:32.640 --> 00:57:39.599
whatever. The point is Hulu, apparently worried that too many non- US residents

00:57:37.280 --> 00:57:44.640
are using cheapVPN services to watch its US programming have started blocking IP

00:57:42.319 --> 00:57:49.200
address ranges belonging to known VPN services. Hulu didn't announce the ban,

00:57:47.119 --> 00:57:52.640
but users of affected VPNs are getting this message. Based on your IP address,

00:57:51.040 --> 00:57:56.799
we noticed you are trying to access Hulu through an anonymous proxy tool. Hulu is

00:57:54.799 --> 00:58:00.480
not currently available outside the US. If you're in the US, you'll need to

00:57:58.480 --> 00:58:04.559
disable your anonymizer to access videos on Hulu. So the problem in there now

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

00:58:08.079 --> 00:58:14.960
it denies access to Hulu from people who

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

00:58:17.760 --> 00:58:27.119
anonymous internet browsing experience which is okay. Like that's fine. Um, the

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

00:58:30.319 --> 00:58:36.400
like, oh yeah, well, like some of our old stinky content that is still good,

00:58:34.799 --> 00:58:40.480
but quite frankly, if you were that interested in watching The Sopranos,

00:58:38.160 --> 00:58:45.440
you've probably already seen it. Yeah. Um, like some some of our old stuff,

00:58:42.880 --> 00:58:51.680
it's like, yeah, it's okay. We need legitimate ways to access premium

00:58:48.559 --> 00:58:55.280
content in a timely manner. Blocking

00:58:51.680 --> 00:58:57.520
things and holding on to things is not

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

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

00:59:02.720 --> 00:59:09.680
night before on some website and it was like, "You can't watch this because

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

00:59:11.520 --> 00:59:17.680
close the site, it has a popup which is like, "Can you answer our survey about

00:59:16.079 --> 00:59:24.079
using our website?" And I was like, "Yes, I hate everything."

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.

00:59:26.160 --> 00:59:32.559
It's so frustrating. I I like it's not clear

00:59:30.559 --> 00:59:36.000
to me what the solution is because I mean, you know, part of the problem is

00:59:34.079 --> 00:59:41.520
that advertisers aren't going to want their advertising impressions wasted on

00:59:38.640 --> 00:59:46.160
people who can't even benefit from their find a monetization platform that works

00:59:43.359 --> 00:59:49.760
so that ads are different on when it's in being viewed in a different country.

00:59:47.440 --> 00:59:55.280
So your solution is to create a a ginormous, you know, advertising network

00:59:52.880 --> 00:59:59.160
that gets puts ads everywhere. I don't think anything like that exists.

00:59:59.440 --> 01:00:04.160
At first I thought you were serious. I was like what?

01:00:02.720 --> 01:00:09.440
It's one of those things where to me if the issue is is advertising and

01:00:06.640 --> 01:00:13.920
licensing then figure it out. But what the real issue is is protecting the

01:00:11.839 --> 01:00:20.240
providers the the existing relationships with providers that are geospecific and

01:00:16.960 --> 01:00:22.960
geospecific just has to go. It was

01:00:20.240 --> 01:00:28.400
stupid back when certain game consoles worked in certain regions.

01:00:25.839 --> 01:00:33.760
I know. And it's stupid now. It the whole thing is stupid. DVD region locks

01:00:30.880 --> 01:00:37.599
are stupid. Everything is stupid. You create the content, you get it in front

01:00:36.079 --> 01:00:41.440
of the eyeballs, you collect the advertising revenue. If the model needs

01:00:39.520 --> 01:00:46.160
to change, the model needs to change. Yeah. Um, so

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

01:00:48.720 --> 01:00:55.359
video. I could have figured it out, but I was just like, no. Speaking of which,

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

01:00:57.599 --> 01:01:05.680
that I did my Hulu Plus integration not that long ago on Alinus Tech Tips video

01:01:02.720 --> 01:01:11.040
was by using Hotspot Shield, our other sponsor to let me access it so I could

01:01:08.640 --> 01:01:16.160
watch the videos. And I haven't actually tried again since this news came out

01:01:14.240 --> 01:01:21.040
like hours ago to find out if Hotspot Shield is one of the ones affected. But

01:01:18.480 --> 01:01:24.640
but anyway, when it comes to Netflix anyway, or you know, at least other

01:01:23.200 --> 01:01:28.400
video streaming services that aren't specifically blocking VPNs, I can say

01:01:26.720 --> 01:01:33.119
with certainty that Hotspot Shield is the fast, easy way to access content

01:01:30.799 --> 01:01:39.520
that is locked out of your region. So, Hotspot Shield anonymizes you and also

01:01:36.559 --> 01:01:43.359
provides you with an IP that is based in a completely different location. So, you

01:01:41.440 --> 01:01:48.640
they have UKbased ones, they have US-based ones. So if you want to go on

01:01:46.000 --> 01:01:52.640
comedy central.com for example, you can watch whatever videos you want, just

01:01:50.559 --> 01:01:56.480
boom, make sure and you enable hotspot shield. You can actually turn it on and

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

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

01:02:03.440 --> 01:02:09.520
that you're redirecting all of your traffic through a US-based server. And

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

01:02:11.200 --> 01:02:17.440
that I recommend by the way. The free service is ad supported, so it exists,

01:02:15.280 --> 01:02:21.359
but it has ads. So, if you want sort of the cleanest possible web browsing

01:02:19.280 --> 01:02:26.079
experience, save 20% by heading over to bit.ly/hsshare

01:02:23.040 --> 01:02:27.680
for 20% off. Use offer code lionus.

01:02:26.079 --> 01:02:34.160
Thank you hotspot shield for sponsoring today's episode of the WAN Show. We've

01:02:30.880 --> 01:02:35.920
also got Barnacles. Get out of here.

01:02:34.160 --> 01:02:40.000
That was from Barnacles last week who was weighing in on our G750 Jay-Z's.

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

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.

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,

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.

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,

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

01:03:01.680 --> 01:03:10.799
evolutionary step in the G750 series from ASUS. And what it basically brings

01:03:07.440 --> 01:03:13.440
to the table is a lot closer to desktop

01:03:10.799 --> 01:03:17.839
grade performance and a lot closer to desktop pricing than we've ever really

01:03:15.680 --> 01:03:22.880
seen before. Now, we had some people question our desktop. You remember the

01:03:21.119 --> 01:03:25.839
Yeah, you ran the benchmarks. Okay. So, we had some people question our desktop

01:03:24.400 --> 01:03:30.400
when we did our comparison because what we discovered was that matching this

01:03:28.000 --> 01:03:35.119
feature for feature, spec for spec, it was going to cost us about 200 less to

01:03:32.240 --> 01:03:40.559
build an equivalent desktop in terms of sort of, you know, the similar Intel CPU

01:03:38.319 --> 01:03:44.079
and a GPU that performs about the same and all that stuff. But this one

01:03:42.640 --> 01:03:46.160
actually performed within what it was about 70 to 80% of the performance of

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

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

01:03:54.319 --> 01:04:00.960
lot of the things that we included are things that maybe you wouldn't choose,

01:03:58.880 --> 01:04:03.680
but you still have to acknowledge that they're features that are going to

01:04:02.079 --> 01:04:07.359
matter to some people, and they're features that do cost money. Like, for

01:04:05.280 --> 01:04:11.520
example, we could have bought the cheapest possible motherboard, but we

01:04:09.599 --> 01:04:15.119
didn't. We bought an ASUS motherboard because we were looking for quality

01:04:13.359 --> 01:04:19.520
parody and then we bought one with Thunderbolt because this laptop has

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

01:04:22.400 --> 01:04:29.920
there is to it. We threw in, you know, a $20 webcam budget with the desktop

01:04:27.440 --> 01:04:33.039
because a lot of people use webcams. This notebook includes a webcam, so

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

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,

01:04:39.200 --> 01:04:45.039
that's not the hardware I would have bought, therefore it's not fair." Well,

01:04:43.039 --> 01:04:50.000
the laptop's available in different configurations. This is the one we

01:04:46.880 --> 01:04:51.839
happen to have, so we have to build

01:04:50.000 --> 01:04:58.839
something that's equivalent to it. So, that's basically all there is to it. It

01:04:53.760 --> 01:04:58.839
runs extremely quietly at idle. Here,

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

01:05:02.799 --> 01:05:07.760
inside of the fur of our whatever this is called. It's called a dead cat.

01:05:06.480 --> 01:05:12.720
I don't like calling it that. I know it's called a dead cat.

01:05:10.000 --> 01:05:15.440
Anyway, so the point is it is extremely quiet when you're not doing anything

01:05:13.839 --> 01:05:20.160
intensive. It runs cool when you're doing crazy intensive stuff. And I think

01:05:18.319 --> 01:05:24.079
is it fair to say you were blown away by how well it performs?

01:05:21.680 --> 01:05:26.799
Yeah, I I I'll be completely honest while doing this ad integration, which

01:05:25.520 --> 01:05:30.880
might not be the greatest thing, but I generally don't like laptops. But I've

01:05:29.039 --> 01:05:34.160
used this a couple times now and like when we used it in Boston to output

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

01:05:36.000 --> 01:05:41.440
remember what quite a few different games with my buddy Victoria and never

01:05:39.839 --> 01:05:45.359
had a single problem. I think this was actually faster than his desktop.

01:05:43.760 --> 01:05:50.119
You took this on a trip to Victoria? Nope.

01:05:47.119 --> 01:05:50.119
Seriously,

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

01:05:57.119 --> 01:06:01.920
about my laptop. No, you weren't. It doesn't even have a

01:06:00.480 --> 01:06:08.000
video card in it. It does, actually. So, we've managed to make it serious.

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

01:06:12.000 --> 01:06:18.559
an 880M, which is actually just about equivalent to a GTX 770. Delivers a

01:06:16.559 --> 01:06:22.960
great gaming experience. It's still portable even though it's obviously not

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

01:06:26.799 --> 01:06:32.960
episode. I can't even believe you. Jay-Z would have just owned his own to

01:06:30.880 --> 01:06:38.160
bring it to Victoria. Yes, Jay-Z the rapper would have

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

01:06:41.119 --> 01:06:44.119
weeks.

01:06:44.480 --> 01:06:53.920
I'm not going to give up. Speaking of jokes that lasted longer than five

01:06:48.079 --> 01:06:57.039
weeks, Plus integration on YouTube,

01:06:53.920 --> 01:07:01.039
Google has allegedly, well, no, it's

01:06:57.039 --> 01:07:02.880
happened. Google has cut between 1,

01:07:01.039 --> 01:07:08.720
and,200 people from the Google+ project and

01:07:05.680 --> 01:07:11.760
reassigned them to other divisions with

01:07:08.720 --> 01:07:15.200
a huge chunk of them going over to the

01:07:11.760 --> 01:07:17.440
Android side of things. So that means

01:07:15.200 --> 01:07:21.760
that products like Hangouts, for example, they're not being cut. They're

01:07:19.680 --> 01:07:28.720
still going to exist. They're just going to be less focused on Google+ and more

01:07:26.079 --> 01:07:33.520
tightly integrated into Android or or other YouTube or Google projects. Sorry,

01:07:31.119 --> 01:07:37.839
I got YouTube on the brain. So, one of the one of the reasons for this,

01:07:36.000 --> 01:07:42.880
actually, we don't have a clear idea about the reason, but one of the reasons

01:07:39.599 --> 01:07:45.680
for this that I think is just how much

01:07:42.880 --> 01:07:48.880
negativity there's been around Google+ and how it's been forced on users. It's

01:07:47.440 --> 01:07:54.079
one of the few things that Google's really done that has made literally

01:07:51.280 --> 01:07:57.760
everyone mad. Like, the entire internet was upset about this. Google has always

01:07:55.920 --> 01:08:02.000
been really, really good at making something and then just having it exist

01:08:00.480 --> 01:08:05.760
and people find out about it and then people do their own marketing around it.

01:08:04.079 --> 01:08:09.680
They've always been incredibly good at that. And that might have worked for Hangouts

01:08:07.599 --> 01:08:13.359
if it wasn't such a giant piece of crap. Yeah, Google+ is terrible. Hangouts,

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.

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

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

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

01:08:27.600 --> 01:08:36.080
Google+, sorry, giant steaming pile of garbage. I mean, honestly, I'm not the

01:08:33.839 --> 01:08:39.600
best at navigating social media websites. I hardly know how to use

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

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

01:08:47.600 --> 01:08:54.719
and I like integrated my Twitter feed

01:08:50.880 --> 01:08:56.560
and I did all this stuff and then

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

01:08:59.120 --> 01:09:07.040
I don't care that my cousin's second

01:09:04.480 --> 01:09:12.080
nephew's nephew. I'm really tired. My like like my

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

01:09:14.640 --> 01:09:19.279
open it other than to manage the Linus Tech page. Um,

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.

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

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

01:09:29.839 --> 01:09:36.080
something that they can see. What I couldn't figure out was how to make it

01:09:33.440 --> 01:09:41.040
part of a workflow for me. How to integrate it into what I'm doing on

01:09:37.839 --> 01:09:44.719
Twitter and Facebook. how to manage it

01:09:41.040 --> 01:09:47.040
so that it is correctly tied to some of

01:09:44.719 --> 01:09:52.000
my YouTube channels but not my other ones and so that I can have people

01:09:49.040 --> 01:09:56.400
administering it. And these are the logistical problems that I had with

01:09:53.759 --> 01:10:00.640
Google+. The fact that it was a little bit confusing in the first place because

01:09:58.560 --> 01:10:04.640
nothing's really labeled. So yeah, I imagine once you're a Google+ genius,

01:10:03.120 --> 01:10:09.280
it's pretty quick to navigate, but nothing's really correctly labeled in

01:10:06.320 --> 01:10:16.000
the first place. And second, because of Google's history of permanently tying or

01:10:13.440 --> 01:10:20.719
untying accounts to each other and being fundamentally broken from then on, I was

01:10:18.480 --> 01:10:25.600
afraid to experiment. And so unless I created an entire new

01:10:23.679 --> 01:10:30.640
batch of YouTube channels, an entire new Google+, and like trial and errored it,

01:10:28.560 --> 01:10:35.280
it just wasn't going to work. And that's the problem. Pretty big problem.

01:10:32.640 --> 01:10:40.719
Pretty big problem. If you if you expect a social network to work, you're going

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

01:10:43.520 --> 01:10:48.560
YouTuber, okay? And you can't manage to

01:10:46.880 --> 01:10:51.120
capture me. That's a problem. It's pretty bad.

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

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.

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

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?

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

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

01:11:14.960 --> 01:11:19.440
awesome. This is posted on the forum. All of Denmark has been recreated in

01:11:18.640 --> 01:11:23.760
Minecraft. What? Posted by Joners now. Not now. Okay,

01:11:22.000 --> 01:11:30.719
this has kind of been done before. Like the UK did a topographical map, but no,

01:11:27.440 --> 01:11:32.960
no, no, no. this is the Denmark like

01:11:30.719 --> 01:11:38.080
buildings and stuff. So, they're releasing it. Uh the only the only

01:11:35.679 --> 01:11:43.760
things that have been changed to to make it not completely uh sandbox is they

01:11:41.440 --> 01:11:48.560
have removed explosives and they have there's one other thing.

01:11:46.560 --> 01:11:50.960
And all the roofs are flat. That's it. Other than that, it's Denmark.

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.

01:11:54.960 --> 01:12:03.360
That is actually really cool. Uh, and then I had one other thing I think,

01:11:59.360 --> 01:12:05.280
right? Um, okay. Someone someone figure

01:12:03.360 --> 01:12:09.040
out the logistics and kickstart this. I wanted to make it myself, but I give up

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

01:12:10.719 --> 01:12:16.239
the idea, then I'd appreciate that. Otherwise, just make it and send me one.

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

01:12:17.760 --> 01:12:26.880
really need this. I want a smart lamp. Okay, lamps. The only innovation that

01:12:24.159 --> 01:12:31.040
has existed in the lamp market has been aesthetic design and putting different

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

01:12:33.199 --> 01:12:41.520
an LED smart lamp that is that is for

01:12:38.400 --> 01:12:43.840
your devices. Okay, so I think maybe the

01:12:41.520 --> 01:12:48.480
Gen two product. Okay, maybe Gen two product gets wireless charging on one of

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

01:12:51.199 --> 01:12:57.520
want it to look pretty nice, modern aesthetic. So maybe like white shade,

01:12:55.120 --> 01:13:01.520
black structure. And basically, I want the entire thing to be kind of shaped

01:12:59.040 --> 01:13:06.000
like this and have shelves on each level. And then down one side, maybe you

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.

01:13:08.159 --> 01:13:14.400
I want cable management. And then I want the whole smart lamp to have one plug

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

01:13:17.040 --> 01:13:22.880
in it. So, what you can do is on your shelves, you can have little wires

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

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

01:13:29.760 --> 01:13:36.880
to exist. It couldn't be that expensive. It couldn't be that difficult to build.

01:13:33.840 --> 01:13:40.880
But there is, for some reason, there's a

01:13:36.880 --> 01:13:42.960
crazy shortage of multiple hub chargers.

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

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

01:13:49.840 --> 01:13:56.480
amp capable with all the latest charging schemes? Please, someone make this for

01:13:54.320 --> 01:14:00.480
me and then follow it up with one where the bottom one is the large wireless

01:13:58.159 --> 01:14:03.760
charging pad and I think slides everywhere. You might not even have to follow it up

01:14:02.480 --> 01:14:06.159
with that. That could just be like the more expensive tier.

01:14:05.840 --> 01:14:10.400
I think because that also doesn't sound hard to set up. So yes,

01:14:09.120 --> 01:14:15.440
like at all. Lamp with lamp with hub would like it.

01:14:13.920 --> 01:14:17.520
people asking what happened to my hand. That actually ties in pretty well to the

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

01:14:22.640 --> 01:14:30.400
you want to do a random.org um prize winner pick for the HTC1 M8s?

01:14:28.719 --> 01:14:34.960
Sure. What's the number range? Which uh Oh, here. No, no, it's okay.

01:14:32.000 --> 01:14:37.440
Here, just um use my computer. Okay,

01:14:36.080 --> 01:14:41.920
I want that one. Okay.

01:14:40.159 --> 01:14:44.560
So, just do it do it in our standard way. So, uh, random

01:14:43.440 --> 01:14:48.640
I know random.org random page and then random person on

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

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.

01:14:53.760 --> 01:15:00.480
We know how many pages. 490. I know. We got a lot of entrance.

01:14:58.880 --> 01:15:04.960
Oh, no. And HTC has confirmed. They were super

01:15:02.320 --> 01:15:09.199
nice about it. Again, not not reading the fine print for giveaways, you guys.

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

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

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

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

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

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,

01:15:32.560 --> 01:15:37.199
so the the content of the message is not Nope. Don't care. Okay.

01:15:35.920 --> 01:15:42.719
It's supposed to contain their favorite thing about the 1M8, but come on. Whatever.

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

01:15:45.199 --> 01:15:51.800
for not paying attention. So, scold everyone for not paying any

01:15:48.800 --> 01:15:51.800
attention.

01:15:54.320 --> 01:15:59.040
210. Of course, 210 of what?

01:15:57.840 --> 01:16:05.440
It's page 210. Oh, okay. Cool. So, yeah, we're picking

01:16:01.360 --> 01:16:08.320
those winners, guys. Stay tuned.

01:16:05.440 --> 01:16:12.080
Picking them winners. All about them winners. And we are also going to

01:16:10.400 --> 01:16:14.719
explain why my hands are black. Oh, are you out?

01:16:14.239 --> 01:16:19.520
Yeah. Uh, is the fastest possible ready to rock?

01:16:17.679 --> 01:16:22.800
You are the man, man. Four. Have a great weekend.

01:16:22.480 --> 01:16:31.760

01:16:30.719 --> 01:16:37.760
per page. Okay. Yep. Sorry. I could have told you that,

01:16:35.280 --> 01:16:44.159
but I was not listening to you cuz I don't care. Number 11.

01:16:40.800 --> 01:16:47.760
Got to find him now.

01:16:44.159 --> 01:16:52.239
One, two, three, four, five, six, seven,

01:16:47.760 --> 01:16:53.600
eight, nine, 10, 11. George Hart, the

01:16:52.239 --> 01:16:58.320
best thing is the build quality. No replacement for metal.

01:16:55.520 --> 01:17:04.000
Nice. Yeah, metal. Yeah, there we go. Now I put up these two. I'm

01:17:01.120 --> 01:17:10.000
like, nope, that's hanging loose. Got to fix that one. Okay, so do I just

01:17:06.480 --> 01:17:12.480
message him? I don't think there's Yeah.

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.

01:17:17.679 --> 01:17:23.520
You don't think there's what? Uh, I don't remember.

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.

01:17:25.360 --> 01:17:30.640
Another one? Yeah. Pick another winner. We got two phones, man.

01:17:28.560 --> 01:17:32.880
Okay. 420 it was for pages. Uh, 490, I think.

01:17:31.760 --> 01:17:37.120
490. Yep. 490. The result is

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.

01:17:39.920 --> 01:17:44.560
No, it's okay. Probably doesn't matter. They trust us. What was it? 129.

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,

01:17:48.719 --> 01:17:55.440
guys. HTC18. Just in case people are confused, I'm

01:17:53.040 --> 01:17:58.239
URL editing to get to the page. Screw clicking next that many times. 20 per

01:17:57.199 --> 01:18:02.000
page. Here we go. Second phone winner.

01:18:01.600 --> 01:18:05.000
Nine. Nine.

01:18:06.640 --> 01:18:13.440
I feel sorry for anyone that we're scrolling over right now.

01:18:10.000 --> 01:18:15.120
Seven, eight, nine.

01:18:13.440 --> 01:18:21.520
Let me recount that just in case because I laughed partway through. One, two,

01:18:17.679 --> 01:18:22.239
three, four, five, six, seven, eight, n.

01:18:21.520 --> 01:18:26.640
Yeah. Okay. All right. 8878.

01:18:25.440 --> 01:18:29.640
There's an N in there. Oh,

01:18:30.480 --> 01:18:37.679
I like the 1080p screen and build quality and but Battery Buri.

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

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.

01:18:45.520 --> 01:18:52.400
Oh, no. That's horrible.

01:18:49.440 --> 01:18:56.320
Wow. Or a place where you uh you get stuff to

01:18:54.880 --> 01:19:03.600
feed fish. Yeah, there we go. That's Yep, that's

01:18:58.719 --> 01:19:05.120
it. Oh, these stupid stupid high bit

01:19:03.600 --> 01:19:09.600
rate clips. These aren't going to play over wireless.

01:19:06.880 --> 01:19:13.199
Oh, that's that's that's super unfortunate. Okay, hold on a second.

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,

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?

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.

01:19:23.760 --> 01:19:30.480
All right. Is this going to work? Whoa. Yeah, that should be fine.

01:19:27.440 --> 01:19:32.400
So, where is it? Let me get to this. Bit

01:19:30.480 --> 01:19:37.120
Torrent is suggesting that Netflix should move to peer-to-peer networks uh

01:19:35.040 --> 01:19:41.600
because of all the crap that's been going around right now over people

01:19:39.440 --> 01:19:46.159
charging Netflix, like ISPs charging Netflix and ISPs charging other people

01:19:43.440 --> 01:19:48.719
for premium bandwidth lanes and all the net neutrality issues that are happening

01:19:48.159 --> 01:19:53.520
right now. That may still be resolved at some point, but for now are not.

01:19:52.239 --> 01:19:57.440
But for now or not. So, they're suggesting that, like I just said,

01:19:55.280 --> 01:20:00.960
Netflix goes to a peer-to-peer network. Um, the reason why we hadn't covered

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

01:20:03.920 --> 01:20:11.600
proved that this could work because of stuff like Popcorn Time. Imagine you had

01:20:09.440 --> 01:20:15.199
Popcorn Time, but on the scale of Netflix, I don't think the bandwidth

01:20:13.600 --> 01:20:20.000
issues would even have a problem be a problem because uh Popcorn Time seemed

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

01:20:23.600 --> 01:20:31.600
problems watching videos in high high quality. So, this would totally work and

01:20:29.840 --> 01:20:37.040
it actually does totally make sense. It does pose a problem though um as that

01:20:35.120 --> 01:20:39.199
would be like super easy as you're storing the file on your computer,

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

01:20:42.719 --> 01:20:48.960
website, it's just streaming. You're not actually saving a file or anything,

01:20:46.239 --> 01:20:50.719
right? Yeah. No. So, is this working fine now?

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

01:20:54.159 --> 01:21:02.080
Yeah. Okay, here we go. So, couple of things.

01:20:58.800 --> 01:21:05.040
So, number one, actually, before we uh

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

01:21:07.920 --> 01:21:13.199
because we have a shoot. The link is in the dog.

01:21:11.679 --> 01:21:18.400
Yeah. Which browser are you using? Firefox. Okay. Right. That figures. Okay. Link is

01:21:16.400 --> 01:21:23.360
in the doc. Okay, so guys, we are posting this in the where is it? Oh,

01:21:21.199 --> 01:21:27.920
I hate that how sometimes it has the drive favicon and sometimes it has a

01:21:26.000 --> 01:21:34.960
little document one. It's ridiculous. Yep. Okay, so there is a problem on the

01:21:31.760 --> 01:21:36.640
internet right now on Twitter

01:21:34.960 --> 01:21:41.760
where the problem is that here I'm just going

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

01:21:43.360 --> 01:21:51.199
chat. We need everyone to get on the Twitch chat. Click that link. Um, we

01:21:47.840 --> 01:21:54.960
were actually losing this straw poll

01:21:51.199 --> 01:21:56.800
earlier today for which tech YouTuber

01:21:54.960 --> 01:22:03.600
would be the last one standing in a winner takes all free-for-all fight. And

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

01:22:07.520 --> 01:22:17.600
people. So, we would obviously win. Number two, our team has this massive

01:22:14.560 --> 01:22:20.639
hulk of a warrior specimen, so we would

01:22:17.600 --> 01:22:25.360
obviously win. So, I need you guys to

01:22:20.639 --> 01:22:26.800
take care of this poll because And if

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

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

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

01:22:39.199 --> 01:22:46.639
that we were on yesterday where we were dressed up and where my hands got all

01:22:44.320 --> 01:22:51.440
covered in black marks that I actually can't remove and the reason why both of

01:22:48.800 --> 01:22:57.120
us are incredibly sore today but should tip you over the edge and help us secure

01:22:54.719 --> 01:23:02.639
your vote. So, if you want to just keep posting the Yeah, you handle that while

01:22:59.360 --> 01:23:04.000
I show them what went on yesterday. So

01:23:02.639 --> 01:23:07.840
that first I'll give you guys the view from a distance here. All right. So

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.

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

01:23:14.639 --> 01:23:20.000
Is this just preamble set up? Yeah. Okay. So preamble preamble.

01:23:18.159 --> 01:23:23.000
There you go. Starts soon. Okay.

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

01:23:29.679 --> 01:23:33.080
that now apparently.

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.

01:23:39.679 --> 01:23:45.960
I don't think there's audio. Is this clip 426? I don't know.

01:23:42.960 --> 01:23:45.960
Okay.

01:23:46.400 --> 01:23:49.960
I don't think so.

01:23:53.280 --> 01:23:57.560
Like to see Logan take this on.

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

01:24:04.000 --> 01:24:07.000
today?

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

01:24:19.679 --> 01:24:26.080
clip number it is. Oh, okay. I'll grab the other clip after

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.

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

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,

01:24:36.080 --> 01:24:41.120
go vote. Post the link. Post the link. Post the link. Post the link.

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

01:24:45.120 --> 01:24:51.280
verify the exact number right now. And guys, let me tell you, when this

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.

01:24:54.080 --> 01:24:58.880
It becomes pretty challenging. That one was missing some of the best

01:24:58.480 --> 01:25:03.679
stuff. I know this one has a flying double kick and like

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

01:25:05.120 --> 01:25:08.120
sure.

01:25:09.600 --> 01:25:13.880
Trust me, guys. This was real tiring.

01:25:17.440 --> 01:25:23.040
And uh So, how much did your chain mail weigh?

01:25:21.040 --> 01:25:26.760
I we didn't weigh it, but I'm guessing 40 45 pounds.

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

01:25:43.520 --> 01:25:51.239
helmet. The helmet, in spite of being not that strong, actually helped a

01:25:48.080 --> 01:25:51.239
little bit.

01:25:55.840 --> 01:26:01.920
Yeah, there you go. All right. All right. The the like close-up awesomeness is

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,

01:26:04.159 --> 01:26:10.320
cuz we captured that in RAW. Yeah. So, unfortunately, we can't share that

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

01:26:12.159 --> 01:26:18.320
close-up shots, and then you guys will see it. It looks

01:26:15.920 --> 01:26:24.639
It looks interesting from that far away, but up close, uh, honestly, even the

01:26:20.880 --> 01:26:28.960
guys filming it, so Brandon was like,

01:26:24.639 --> 01:26:32.080
"Uh, okay, that's a lot faster and a lot

01:26:28.960 --> 01:26:34.159
more intense when I'm right next to it."

01:26:32.080 --> 01:26:37.760
He got hit once. Uh, what's this one? One, take three.

01:26:37.040 --> 01:26:41.679
Hold on. Do you know what one you're looking for? Did Brandon get hit

01:26:40.960 --> 01:26:46.480
once? Yeah. Did he by my axe? Really? Or wait, no, that was the

01:26:44.880 --> 01:26:51.360
camera. Never mind. Yeah, my bad. The camera got hit once.

01:26:48.320 --> 01:26:52.400
When did we do the long take?

01:26:51.360 --> 01:26:55.120
I don't know. I don't remember. Wasn't that near the beginning of these

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

01:26:58.960 --> 01:27:05.679
topics to keep people busy with? I don't think so.

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

01:27:06.880 --> 01:27:12.639
through that with you. I can bring it up on this laptop, though. Oh, okay.

01:27:10.800 --> 01:27:15.120
Cool. because we're doing the voting thing now and there's all that stuff

01:27:14.080 --> 01:27:19.920
going on, right? That makes sense.

01:27:17.600 --> 01:27:25.440
No, I keep forgetting it's this laptop. Be careful.

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.

01:27:27.199 --> 01:27:32.400
I will be ready, though. Um,

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

01:27:34.320 --> 01:27:39.920
wondering why it's taking him so long, it's

01:27:38.080 --> 01:27:45.600
dancing. Hey, Nights Danced.

01:27:43.280 --> 01:27:48.560
Okay, I think this is the one, right? It might be. How long is it?

01:27:47.600 --> 01:27:56.480
It's pretty long. Very possibly. Yep. Okay. Okay. So, here you go, guys.

01:27:53.280 --> 01:27:58.560
Sneak preview. Sneak preview.

01:27:56.480 --> 01:28:02.639
So, here we are up close. These costumes, they were cool until it like

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

01:28:04.719 --> 01:28:11.040
towels and then under chain and scale and then plate on top.

01:28:13.360 --> 01:28:19.600
What's up? I'm just curious.

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?

01:28:23.120 --> 01:28:26.520
I think so.

01:28:29.360 --> 01:28:32.880
I think this is just repeated slam and Oh, is that all this is?

01:28:32.560 --> 01:28:37.600
Yeah. Oh, this is the wrong clip. Well, whatever. Okay, you guys will have to

01:28:36.000 --> 01:28:43.360
wait to see some of the crazier stuff later. stuff like that like legitimately hurt

01:28:40.880 --> 01:28:47.520
though, especially when he hits me in the face.

01:28:45.679 --> 01:28:51.679
So yeah, that was just us getting some clips of of like me hitting him. Okay,

01:28:49.600 --> 01:28:55.840
well I'm sorry guys. You'll have to wait till we actually release our commercial.

01:28:54.320 --> 01:29:01.440
Um something else that you guys should definitely check out is by far the best

01:28:58.880 --> 01:29:04.320
promotional video that my team has ever made. I actually had very little

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

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

01:29:11.440 --> 01:29:16.960
like streaming YouTube videos for whatever reason. I don't know how that

01:29:15.040 --> 01:29:21.920
even happens, but just a heads up. Um, it might work. We'll see.

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

01:29:23.840 --> 01:29:27.239
channel? Nope.

01:29:30.719 --> 01:29:38.480
So, this is actually posted on Kingston's YouTube channel.

01:29:35.520 --> 01:29:42.000
I think they're under Kingston memory or Kingston technology. There we go. All

01:29:40.639 --> 01:29:47.840
right, you guys. You guys should check this out. Check this out.

01:29:45.440 --> 01:29:54.880
Wait, where is it? They Oh, that's weird. They posted it on Twitter, but I

01:29:51.840 --> 01:29:57.440
don't actually see it here.

01:29:54.880 --> 01:29:59.440
Bizarre. Um,

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.

01:30:02.000 --> 01:30:06.000
Yeah. Okay. A Uh, well, I'll tweet it

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

01:30:10.239 --> 01:30:15.360
thread. So, nope.

01:30:13.360 --> 01:30:17.440
You're not streaming. Okay. You need to change accounts.

01:30:16.560 --> 01:30:21.520
I need to what? Log out of mine. Oh, well, here. Just switch.

01:30:20.960 --> 01:30:27.360
Sure. We'll do the old laptop switcherooni. Here you go.

01:30:25.920 --> 01:30:31.920
Whoop. Oops. Sorry. Did I just get you in the junk?

01:30:29.199 --> 01:30:35.920
Nope. It's close again. Just like the hammer.

01:30:34.800 --> 01:30:38.880
Oh yeah. Or was it your foot? No, it was my foot.

01:30:38.239 --> 01:30:46.080
Oh, okay. Yep. Junk foot. Yeah. Okay. So,

01:30:42.880 --> 01:30:49.199
you are now here. It was Hivefire and

01:30:46.080 --> 01:30:51.040
Project Rampage that won. So, Hivefire

01:30:49.199 --> 01:30:55.840
is luckily the very first one on the list. Sweet. Wow. Look at that thing.

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.

01:30:58.239 --> 01:31:04.159
It is now builds of the month. Of the month. Yeah, that is of the month.

01:31:02.880 --> 01:31:07.120
This is part of the reason why we made it build logs month. Unfortunately, last

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

01:31:09.840 --> 01:31:15.840
logs actually for this coming month only had one submission. So, just so everyone

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

01:31:18.320 --> 01:31:26.000
post your submission, read the rules because for this submission, I I let all

01:31:24.480 --> 01:31:30.159
the people through that broke the rules, but for next submission, I made it very

01:31:28.000 --> 01:31:33.520
clear who did it wrong. next submission, please do it correctly and then we'll be

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.

01:31:35.120 --> 01:31:41.040
It's crazy. So cool. Yeah, I mean different colors on every

01:31:39.679 --> 01:31:46.320
Dominator module. Yeah. I mean, coloring the accents on this

01:31:44.159 --> 01:31:49.920
motherboard looks outstanding. An insane amount of time went into this.

01:31:48.080 --> 01:31:54.719
I mean, the amount the It's funny because stuff doesn't match, but it

01:31:52.880 --> 01:32:01.120
almost looks better that way. Like we've got clear tubing, braided tubing. We've

01:31:58.000 --> 01:32:03.679
got like a black and red and gray color

01:32:01.120 --> 01:32:09.120
scheme here with black, yellow, red, orange here. And like

01:32:06.880 --> 01:32:12.800
Oh, it's just it's just utter chaos. It actually plays into the whole hive

01:32:11.280 --> 01:32:15.360
fire idea because the fire is not going to look identical all over the place.

01:32:14.400 --> 01:32:20.159
That's fantastic. It's really cool. So, we're doing a

01:32:17.520 --> 01:32:23.199
little bit. These are all crazy good. Yeah, for sure.

01:32:23.280 --> 01:32:29.920
I was very obnoxious by my you broke the rules thing. This was the other winner

01:32:27.840 --> 01:32:33.360
was Project Rampage. So again, check out the check out this thread on the forum

01:32:31.840 --> 01:32:37.600
and you can click through to their individual forum threads by doing so. So

01:32:35.679 --> 01:32:40.960
you can go down to Project Rampage on this thread. Click on his link and then

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.

01:32:43.520 --> 01:32:48.400
These are just short snippets. Look at this bent tubing. Oh man, I love

01:32:48.000 --> 01:32:56.320
that. It looks really good. That looks clean. I mean, I'm not I'm

01:32:52.400 --> 01:32:59.760
not much of an overdone fittings guy,

01:32:56.320 --> 01:33:01.120
and this to me is a little bit extreme.

01:32:59.760 --> 01:33:04.400
You can see how many fittings are stacked on top of each other here. I

01:33:02.880 --> 01:33:12.719
don't like unnecessary points of failure. So, that's one thing. Um, but

01:33:10.480 --> 01:33:18.080
love the aesthetic. Love the way these PCI Express connectors come in. Uh,

01:33:15.360 --> 01:33:24.080
absolutely love this bend right here. Like bringing it up and then away really

01:33:21.040 --> 01:33:26.560
breaks up that normal look of trii or

01:33:24.080 --> 01:33:31.280
triric crossfire graphics cards with this kind of this red line on the bottom

01:33:28.480 --> 01:33:35.679
one. Looks fantastic. Memory cooling is again something that I'm not a huge fan

01:33:32.960 --> 01:33:42.400
of because it's completely unnecessary. Although that GSkill RAM that we have,

01:33:38.719 --> 01:33:44.159
the 2400 MHz 64 gig kit does benefit

01:33:42.400 --> 01:33:47.840
from active cooling. though I shouldn't say completely unnecessary cuz I don't

01:33:45.760 --> 01:33:50.800
want to put fans on things either. Yeah, that's true. Especially if you're

01:33:49.280 --> 01:33:54.560
doing like a crazy watercol build, you want your fans in very specific locations.

01:33:52.639 --> 01:33:58.800
Fantastic builds, you guys. Those are amazing. Absolutely awesome. So, I'm going to try

01:33:56.400 --> 01:34:02.159
and get something worked out in terms of like build of the month badges or

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

01:34:05.920 --> 01:34:10.320
the something is back. We're going to be

01:34:08.960 --> 01:34:14.239
doing another one next month. Cool. Um, and yeah, remember to go on

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

01:34:15.840 --> 01:34:20.880
the straw poll as well. Yeah, I'm gonna post that in the chat somewhere.

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

01:34:23.120 --> 01:34:28.400
Knights. Go vote for the PC Knights. All

01:34:26.159 --> 01:34:31.520
right, there's a straw poll. Go vote. My Twitch chat is disconnected because

01:34:30.800 --> 01:34:36.880
who knows? Uh, because I turned your Wi-Fi off. Oh, that makes sense.

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

01:34:39.840 --> 01:34:45.360
eventually Twitch gets mad. Really? I think so. I'm not sure.

01:34:43.600 --> 01:34:49.040
Interesting. We should have a look at how the where the results are sitting

01:34:46.719 --> 01:34:51.840
now. Oh, yeah. We're ahead by a solid couple thousand now. Thank you guys.

01:34:51.040 --> 01:34:59.520
Thanks everyone. Yeah, you took care of that stunning

01:34:55.199 --> 01:35:00.560
abomination of a pole result that had us

01:34:59.520 --> 01:35:04.880
losing. All right. How long did we fight for yesterday in full armor?

01:35:03.520 --> 01:35:09.440
Hours. Like seven hours.

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

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

01:35:15.280 --> 01:35:20.239
from the one table to the uh to the bleachers. All right, good night

01:35:18.800 --> 01:35:24.159
everyone. Thank you for watching the WAN Show. I changed my mind about garage

01:35:22.400 --> 01:35:29.280
sale because I'm just really tired. I want to go home. Um peace out.

01:35:27.120 --> 01:35:32.800
Bye everyone. I got to sleep last night. You didn't. So that's very justified.
