hey how's it going it's Friday TGI
0:06
Friday I'm out of water so welcome to the cars you're out
0:13
of cars cuz you had a supply of cars
0:17
before and now you don't and water can
0:21
you see I'm I'm out of crime man there's
0:24
there's no more crime in this town it's not an issue when I throw things on the
0:27
ground cuz I'll clean them up yeah your crime came back that's what happens with
0:31
crime you lock up crime and the crime
0:34
comes back because it doesn't pay and if
0:38
it doesn't pay it can't afford the rent where you sent it oh so oh so it has to
0:43
come home yes it's like living back in your parents basement yes all the
0:47
criminals are like man like we we tried to leave and then we weren't very like
0:52
successful so we came back just tell them to like steal better stuff next
0:56
time yeah yeah they need training need crime train like you know can you can
1:02
you can you imagine like I mean there surely people must learn crime somehow
1:08
like crime school yeah like crime school like I mean obviously not in North
1:13
America or like anywhere with a government that's paying attention at
1:17
all but like can you imagine like an actual crime School opening up a crime
1:21
School in like you know middle of Africa
1:25
somewhere yeah where it's like okay and
1:28
and and like it the like actually not have it be like child soldiers like like
1:32
like actually have it be like like just yeah we're just going to teach you how to do the things like a popup ad in your
1:37
browser that's like for only you know
1:40
$5,000 will help you make however much a day through a life of crime and they it
1:46
actually includes like a legitimate plane ticket you go there there's classes there's there's practical B
1:51
cutter yeah bold cutter well no no cuz there there's a lot more than that like
1:55
there's a lot of like tricks of the trade like when we had a lot of the
1:58
security done on this place they're like yeah this is what they do and this is what they do and this is what they do
2:01
and I'm sitting here going how do they all know how to do this well crime school maybe you and I
2:09
are just smart enough that we never clicked the link maybe this woman is making $10,000
2:16
a week in Canada is actually crime school maybe it's crime School crime
2:19
school yeah wow but not the crime School in Canada the people come back to Canada
2:24
with criminal knowledge oh okay but you
2:27
can advertise to people currently in Canada yeah because I mean it's it's
2:31
like it's it's sketchy advertising sketchy sites you know where you see
2:35
those kinds of things I mean obviously you know lineus Tech tips.com is not
2:38
going to have crime School banner ads no and if we did you know we' charge a lot
2:42
for them so there'd be a good justification for them to be there yeah
2:47
yeah we should probably one of our guys went to marketing
2:50
school which is maybe not that different
2:54
from crime school be pretty Sim we also have someone who went to law school not
2:57
that different from crime School in fact AR a lot about crime pretty much the
3:02
same yeah I mean so maybe so maybe the
3:06
school of school are crime schools
3:09
yes Police Academy is crime school yes
3:14
the police okay so the Law Academy is like metaphysical crime school and the
3:18
police academy is like quite definitely physical CRI practical practical
3:22
application CRI so it's like Theory versus practical yeah BCIT versus UVC
3:27
well I think they both have they both have the opposite as well because in law
3:32
you'll have some practical training like how to write a letter essay enable a
3:38
crime to be committed and not be punished right and same in same in
3:42
Police Academy they're going to have like they're going to have theoretical
3:46
studies as well yeah yeah y that totally
3:50
makes sense I get it it's just like what one you want your strength to be in yeah
3:53
so I mean you do get an allaround either way yeah we still have I mean if you
3:58
went to Super formal crime School super criminal school that would be both law
4:03
school and police academy and maybe like get a degree in both and maybe like some
4:07
programming mix in super criminal school
4:10
yeah networking stuff yeah yeah yeah that makes sense basic scripting I mean
4:14
that's the only difference between you know the so-called first world and the
4:19
rest of the world is that naming it's it's it's all spin yeah it's spin people
4:25
are probably wondering what the hell show it is that they're watching um this
4:28
the show it is the W show we are going to actually have a show at some point
4:31
today sometimes the sometimes unrecognizable the unapologetically
4:35
unrecognizable wanch so uh this week we've got some uh call out topics uh
4:41
Hulk Hogan might have single-handedly
4:44
taken out both his friendship and Gawker
4:48
media actually if I remember correctly like his friend was cool with it
4:54
oh I don't know if that story is true um there's a grocery store in Sweden with
4:58
no staff none none at all AMD
5:03
made announcements many announcements
5:06
lots of them also Oculus has 30 VR games
5:10
that'll be ready at launch oh hi well I'm just trying to Center the heads on
5:14
the table let's just roll the
5:28
intro
5:40
what the crap oh
5:45
crap there hold on I got
5:50
this oo deep dive
5:54
sessions oh dang it
5:58
CL Squarespace uh you
6:04
should you should no no you have you
6:07
should do what build it beautiful but that's not
6:12
their current do we care no not
6:19
really um all right guys so we've got a
6:24
pretty uh pretty good pretty good show for you guys today I hope that was
6:28
definitely not pre to Crime school yeah that was not that it contains none of
6:33
our knowledge from crime school cuz quite frankly if you're going to go to
6:36
Crime school you're going to have to pay for tuition that's how School works okay
6:42
yep crime School tuition yep it's like
6:45
uh it's like can I mean can you imagine
6:48
the invoice they sent you like I would double check
6:51
that invoice from criminals extra zero
6:54
here there extra zero give give us your credit card trust us it's okay and then
6:59
if you if you pay for you know what that's probably the final exam if you
7:03
pay for Crime School you fail you
7:06
fail you have to find some way to not
7:09
pay and then they just have to make the tuition insane so the people that do pay
7:13
end up paying for everyone else yeah and and I mean you know not every criminal
7:18
is the most brilliant person on the face of the Earth so you got to imagine that
7:21
some of the people who fail their final exam probably pay to try again y so they
7:26
can subsidize the people who are passing oh definitely and not paying
7:30
yeah I like it okay strong business
7:33
model so you know you have a much more
7:36
interesting story about this than I do this was originally posted by Chi CH
7:40
Chev BHD on the Forum I'm just going to pull up the original article here from a
7:44
NCH and posted in the good old twitch
7:48
chatam maroon here we go AMD to Showcase
7:52
latest Innovation okay well this is just the general coverage dang it where's the
7:56
uh there's an RS technical article about it if you go back to the
8:00
thing bleeding heck sir bleeding heck
8:05
indeed in crime school they tell they teach you how to say cool things like
8:09
bleeding heck sulon Q hold on I'm just going to throw this in the twitch chat
8:13
so you guys can check that ah all right
8:17
AMD powered sulan Q is like wearing a VR
8:20
capable Windows PC on your head can you
8:24
tell me a little bit about your experience with this when was it that's
8:28
important it was a little bit ago it wasn't this year so I believe it was CES
8:32
2015 okay I'm pretty sure it was CES 2015 um there was the suon cortex uh we
8:39
figured out that they were on the floor but we never covered it no but we really
8:44
tried um we super duper tried Brandon's walking way over there Brandon
8:48
definitely remembers hey Brandon remember the sulon
8:51
cortex terrible yeah he just said it was terrible that's basically the conclusion
8:56
here okay um when I saw this headline AMD announc sulon Q I did multiple
9:01
double takes which actually equals something that isn't a double take I did
9:04
like a quadruple or whatever the six version would equal but I like had I
9:09
checked
9:12
multip uh you can find out what he wants sure he doesn't usually do that unless
9:16
it's a problem hello mape one of our Forum
9:23
moderators when you're screen sharing there's really really loud chirping and
9:28
it's quite painful chirping fantastic we had problems
9:32
screen sharing last week too so I don't know what's going on thanks M thanks M
9:37
okay by okay well I'll uh I'll attempt
9:40
to diagnose that in the background here so carry on anyways so yeah so it was at
9:46
that point in time called the sulon cortex I can tell you right now it's
9:49
changed a lot um even just the specs are way improved uh we don't know the
9:54
battery life all that kind of stuff but it has a built-in 256 GB SSD for compute
9:59
cores eight cores unlocked through heterogeneous system architecture it has
10:04
a four core FX 8800p processor OC to around 3.4 GHz
10:09
runs Windows 10 has an R7 graphics card
10:13
no information other than that um yeah so the specs have taken a big jump
10:18
upwards that might have something to do with AMD theoretically like acquiring
10:23
them um it's it just says with Toronto
10:26
based startup suon Technologies this is another Toronto startup that I was super
10:30
excited for and then was super let down by the the watch was one of those as
10:35
well right but basically what happened was we went there I was super excited
10:39
that suon cortex was at CES because I had seen and heard tons of stuff about
10:42
them it was supposed to be this awesome experience they had cameras on the front
10:46
of the headset so you could do like augmented reality stuff but then it was
10:49
completely tether free because it's all in the headset super cool Brandon and I
10:54
went to go check it out almost first thing CES 2015 it
11:00
like I'm comfortable saying literally didn't work at all um yeah so we were
11:06
like can we come back and they encouraged that so we went back later
11:10
still didn't work did that again went back later still didn't work I think we
11:13
did it one more time went back was able to fight our way through two demos that
11:19
were both gratuitously horrible so I didn't end up releasing a video about it
11:23
because I didn't think the communication to the audience would have been worth
11:27
them watching
11:30
um and now AMD has announced iteration
11:35
two I guess called The sulon Q so
11:40
hopefully it's good okay that's basically hopefully
11:46
it's good that's all you have to say I'm I'm really like the specs look
11:51
way better if AMD can pull those specs off it could be sweet I mean all they're
11:57
saying is Radeon R7 graphics card card which tells us absolutely nothing
12:02
basically I mean you could call anything an R7 graphics card it could be a
12:06
240 that's true it could be a 240 it could it could literally be not much
12:11
more powerful than like a high-end
12:15
tablet um I don't know what I'm
12:19
hopeful here's okay so but but this is another thing this seems like the wrong
12:23
direction for AMD to go in yeah and there's another thing that I don't really understand about this product did
12:28
you watch the video um no I actually didn't oh that won't help you understand
12:32
things they spend the entire video just saying
12:36
first okay it might be really loud chirping noises if nope I fixed it okay
12:40
um I haven't used this capture card in a long time because I was having some
12:44
issues with it um but the new driver fixed some issues but didn't fix the
12:47
issues that it seems to be my laptop having I think I need to update my sound drivers because I was trying to stream
12:51
from my laptop yesterday and I was having issues with that too oh my God
12:55
what is this my dad texted me so I thought it was important because it's during the show he just text him you
12:59
just wanted to say You're a Noob your dad's Awesome by the way thanks Dad I I
13:04
like your dad he's a cool guy what what is this yeah it's uh really really
13:09
really closeup shots of the headset there you go that's the headset so the
13:12
compute unit I think is partially on the back or entirely on the back so
13:16
basically it's gear VR but
13:23
bulky I mean it's
13:27
prob I and and and it won't be running
13:31
experiences that are tailored for a lightweight for lightweight Hardware
13:35
like an operating systems like Android it'll be running full fat Windows
13:42
10 with VR experiences that are like I
13:46
it's all about when you want to adopt something you want to adopt the same one
13:52
that everyone else is adopting to have at least some chance of ongoing support
13:57
from third parties because it's simple
14:01
business if I'm a third party making a piece of software a PC VR experience am
14:07
I going to Target the HTC Vive which sold what was it 15,000 units within 10
14:12
minutes or something absur just completely obscene like looks amazing
14:16
and looks awesome or would I go after the Oculus Rift which is the just you
14:21
know favorite favorite nephew of the
14:25
entire industry um where both
14:29
amaz the touch controllers come up where both of those companies are saying yep
14:33
you're going to need a super powerful PC in order to have the experiences that we
14:37
expect you to have on our headset or you going to Target this thing which who's
14:42
going to buy like who's going to buy this so like you and the other 16 people
14:46
who buy it are going to expect a software developer to make an experience
14:51
for this that's going to be good I genuinely don't know if I will and I know that might be kind of surprising
14:55
cuz I I basically said I'm going to buy like all them buy it um you were
14:59
considering it no well you said you and the other so like I'm not oh no yeah I
15:04
mean I'm not the main reason why I didn't release a video I've released
15:07
videos from shows and I've released videos from around the office where I
15:12
tear things apart before I could have done that again the reason why I didn't
15:15
was cuz I didn't want this thing to get press I've been actively worried it was
15:21
it was bad I've been actively worried the entire time since dk1 was announced
15:27
that I I don't really want bad press about bad products around VR right if
15:32
there's if there's bad press about the Vive or if there's bad press about the
15:37
rift maybe they deserved that I don't know what it would have been there's
15:40
been pretty good press about both of them so I don't I don't I'm not saying anything I just like if they're happen
15:45
to be for whatever reason um then they
15:48
need to get their act together and keep on moving up and they can fix it and then they can keep going both of those
15:52
headsets and the gear VR to a lesser degree are doing a good job of showing
15:57
like this is what VR can be right actually uh Vive especially has
16:03
shown off that like this can be for a wider audience yeah you can walk around
16:08
and explore Everest you can do all these like super cool things like awesome you
16:12
guys are doing great I want to talk about that so that people hear it and
16:16
get excited I don't want to talk about you don't want to talk about how long an
16:19
fx8800p processor overclocked to 3.4
16:22
gahz is going to run on battery when it's strapped to your head
16:26
yeah like actually specifically I don't
16:29
really can you imagine how warm that would be between the headset across the
16:34
front of your face and a computer taped to the back of it wait for a second yeah
16:40
I mean did they even say anything about weight no no weight or battery no weight
16:44
or battery spe um that thing is not big
16:48
enough to have a decent battery and it is too big to be
16:53
light but then you know here's something
16:56
though I don't know what an fx 8800p is
17:00
does anyone know what an fx8800p is I've never heard of that fx8800p this is a
17:05
notebook processor I didn't even know notebook processors I think the r
17:11
sbit okay so what is what is it integrated so is some kind of like Apu
17:16
or something like that by the look of things so let's just let's just have a
17:19
quick let's have a quick look at what Gander over here products. AMD.com page
17:24
has on it man their site is slow okay uh
17:29
just super excited for the suon Q
17:33
specific why am I on the French page well whatever okay uh
17:39
F uh op o
17:44
op yeah okay total cash L2 I I love I
17:48
love how French just gets butchered when it comes to technical terms a lot of
17:53
languages do yeah um okay
17:57
yeah PCI Express okay okay so four Hearts um 8
18:06
GPU course so here their course here their
18:12
curse uh AMD you don't get to do this you
18:17
don't just get to add up CPU and GPU cores and just be like yeah it has 12
18:21
cores uh four threads it's kind of 12 to
18:25
course uh okay 3.4 GHz is not overclocked so
18:30
the article seems to have missed that that is a max turbo and it is a 15 watt
18:35
TDP processor okay so we're not talking about necessarily like a a like a tablet
18:42
processor but it's it's definitely a notebook processor it's one that I've
18:45
never seen in a laptop 800 MHz R7 wow they're not even saying like how many
18:50
stream processors it has or anything like that so this is some this is some
18:54
underpowered nonsense so what this means to me then anyway is if we're looking at
18:59
a 28 nanom AMD chip with four cores um
19:03
maybe this just isn't about gaming at all then maybe this was the first VR
19:08
experience that I wanted to quit
19:13
oh I mean they're talking about you know
19:16
the the uh the the the virtual mapping of the environment around okay not this
19:21
the sulon cortex was yeah right I have not tried the que I have no idea what
19:25
the experience is like I can guess
19:29
why would you even need wireless keyboard and mouse support what would
19:33
you do with a keyboard and mouse with this thing strapped to your head I can't
19:36
think of a reason to have a things how does it have wireless keyboard and mouse
19:40
support I don't know well Bluetooth I guess but like why would you ever care
19:46
why okay fine we're done um let's let's
19:51
pull up the Anon Tech article that are you copying that into twitch chat yeah
19:55
uh let's pull up the Anon article that should have some no this this article is
20:00
not an article this is just a link to an investor relations page and their
20:04
webcast announcement page so way to go
20:08
Colton um okay let's talk GP road map so
20:12
yeah original article here is from PC perspective PC pair yeah go Mr Shrout
20:17
actually John walth but you know whatever Mr Shrout gets at least some of
20:21
the did I say did I say John oh sorry
20:24
sorry I still had the Hulk Hogan story on the mind we'll talk more about that
20:28
later um so some hints at what comes next I
20:32
love these GPU architecture road map
20:35
slides because they're just so completely meaningless yeah a okay so a
20:43
it's gazing into the crystal ball which hasn't actually worked out very well for
20:48
us over the last uh two to three years where we've been like looking at these
20:53
like great slides of like how much better gpus are going to be but then you
20:57
have to read the f print too because the thing that they're telling you doesn't
21:01
necessarily even have a whole lot to do with what you would want to know this is
21:05
a performance per watt graph which is like it could
21:10
potentially even get worse in terms of
21:14
I'm not saying it it is came out and said that yeah well like like our CPUs
21:19
could get worse yeah like theoretically the performance could go down if the
21:24
wattage used goes way down that graph is
21:27
still possible then that comes up with and then we end up with like a really
21:30
like super like awesome looking graph so
21:33
Polaris is 2 and 1/2x performance per watt so what we're sort of hoping for I
21:39
guess is between sometime in 2016 we're
21:44
going to get that and we are going to see maybe similar power draw or
21:48
hopefully a little bit less maybe a little bit less power draw than current
21:52
AMD top tier cards and maybe about hey 1
21:55
and a half to 2x the performance and then Vega is like even like way better
22:02
sort ofish about as much better again three times or really features hbm 2 yeah
22:08
maybe actually yeah it's actually not that much not that much different it just it looks more impressive because
22:14
nothing happened between the end of 2014 and the middle of
22:18
2016 literally nothing happened on the AMD side of things um so Vega is looking
22:23
like another similar Improvement and then they're like oh yeah it's going to take a little bit longer and then we're
22:27
going to have na'vi sort of later
22:30
okay cool uh what else we got
22:35
here why can't I why why can't I move
22:39
over what's wrong with your thing there we go oh hbm 1 is limited in the next
22:44
gen Parts okay so that's some more news out of AMD that I guess is is
22:49
fascinating um I guess we we already
22:53
kind of knew this the word on the street is that NVIDIA's Flagship at least to
22:57
start with Pascal which is not big Pascal that's going to be the next step
23:01
down Pascal is going to be using gddr5x um so it's probably just one of
23:06
those things where NVIDIA would have maybe loved to use hbm but because
23:11
they're moving a much higher volume of Parts than AMD there may simply not be
23:15
enough hbm for AMD let alone for someone
23:20
like NVIDIA to come in and put it on yeah you know a hot selling skew like a
23:24
replacement for something like the GTX 970 um what else we got here AMD
23:31
announces the absolutely most powerful
23:35
graphics card in the world so our
23:38
original article here is from legit reviews and this my friends is the radon
23:46
Pro Duo it features three PCI Express 8 Pin
23:55
power connectors wow woo W it features liquid
24:02
cooling which is probably smart and it features pretty much two R9 Furies on a
24:09
single card pretty impressive so having
24:13
a look at some fire strike numbers here it is uh you know definitely faster than
24:19
an R9 295x2 it is definitely faster than a GTX
24:25
Titan Z which is the last dual G puu card that NVIDIA released um total total
24:32
flop the Titan Z was they didn't even bother to redo a a Titan a dual GPU card
24:38
for the flagship GPU of this generation
24:41
and uh yeah so it has it has definitely
24:45
taken back you know if 3D Mark scores
24:48
are something to sort of go on it is definitely taken back the most powerful
24:53
graphics card award for AMD we don't know if getting one I have
24:59
been in touch um they had said they wanted to give us a briefing before
25:03
talking about sampling so I I actually cced you and John on the email because
25:09
you guys would probably be the ones to to get briefed on it when did you do
25:14
this earlier this week when was The Briefing uh well no
25:20
they never replied so they haven't actually they
25:23
haven't actually sent any information about the briefing so hopefully that's coming soon think I saw this email yeah
25:28
hopefully we will uh we will get some kind of coverage for you guys um it the
25:34
card has a combined 8 gigs of hbm memory so we are seeing
25:39
um I guess GTX 690 Syndrome again where
25:45
like yeah okay it's like really powerful but the problem with the 690 is that
25:49
because it only had 2 gigs of RAM per GPU that was effectively 2 gigs of RAM
25:57
so whether it's hbm allocation or
26:00
whether it's the complexity of adding more of it to the board AMD is limited
26:06
to 4 gigs of hbm memory per core which
26:11
is effectively 4 gigs for the entire system because the way that Crossfire
26:14
and SLI work at this time is that they are not able to just go okay well each
26:19
GPU has 4 gigs so now we've got 8 gigs total um
26:24
making you know and responded making
26:27
other cards of similar power that come out in the future whether they are based
26:32
on Pascal or whether they're based on Polaris probably make more sense to wait
26:38
for I'm not a huge fan of dual GPU cards
26:42
and there are a wide variety of reasons for that not the least of which is the
26:47
fact that the drivers for them it comes down to what I was talking about before
26:51
you are better off investing in something that more people are going to
26:54
buy because it puts more pressure on the manufacturer to fix it if there's a
26:59
problem so we had an issue in scrapyard Wars 3 where Austin's system because he
27:04
had uh what was it 295x2 wasn't it no no
27:08
it was uh it was a 6990 oh yeah had a
27:11
6990 yeah not yeah couldn't run PC mark
27:15
because there is no way in AMD's on
27:18
AMD's Dual GPU cards so single card dual
27:21
GPU to disable
27:24
Crossfire there were some guides we found and there were some people
27:27
suggesting that there were ways to do it but we did not successfully disable
27:33
Crossfire because even though you can do it when you've got two cards in one
27:36
system you just no you just can't and it
27:40
it felt like because you were supposed to do it on like an application based
27:44
level in order to disable Crossfire like was like some weird tool yeah there
27:48
didn't seem to be any well it's not that weird it's pretty common tool but anyways it does other stuff that's why
27:52
it wasn't the AMD driver which means it's not good enough okay yeah that's
27:56
true U I'm not going to argue that it is a relatively common tool though anyways
28:01
um so you're supposed to disable it on an application based level you don't
28:04
just turn off Crossfire at all and let your computer see two individual
28:08
separate gpus which I kind of get which
28:11
PCI Express is complicated it's not simple yeah that's fair so having a
28:14
single interface like okay but then I guess it didn't pick up the application
28:19
properly or the application wasn't reporting properly or something I don't know what was going on but it just
28:22
wasn't working and was going straight Crossfire right into the application so it was like okay nothing else we can
28:27
really do um so yeah I would recommend whether
28:31
you're on the uh red team or the green team I would wait for a single GPU card
28:36
that is going to not only deliver probably very similar performance but
28:41
sort what EO echo echo echo for what I don't know
28:47
apparently there's an echo I have literally not touched the
28:52
computer so why is this
28:57
happening Everything is
29:00
awesome everything is cool when you're on the W show everything is
29:06
awesome when you Echo EO oh that was
29:10
pretty good I wonder how many Echoes they're going to hear of you saying that
29:14
Echo yeah um got some people say if we
29:18
Echo ourselves this is good enough what if we Echo ourselves what if we Echo
29:21
each other what if we Echo each other each
29:24
other each other each other each other other each other um people are like you
29:29
unplugged something no I didn't my my hands have been my my hands
29:34
have been visible the whole time you actually didn't if I unplugged anything
29:38
it was uh it was definitely in my pants so okay let's go ahead and move on to
29:43
our next topic Polaris 11 running 4K VR
29:47
content pictured few Polaris 10 details
29:50
so uh Ryan Shrout tweeted I did get to
29:53
see AMD's Polaris 11 GPU running
29:57
passively while playing back 4K VR
30:00
content last night pretty
30:04
impressive d d d for Polaris 10 the
30:08
sample used during their event had five display outputs three DisplayPort
30:14
1.3s 8K 8K HDMI 2.0 finally thank you
30:20
AMD and DVID dual link although it still
30:24
bothers me that AMD has removed VGA output from their cards entirely I don't
30:29
remember why but it inconvenienced me not that long ago when I was stuck with
30:34
VGA and I had an AMD card and I was like a
30:38
crap cannot do according to VR world the
30:41
PCB of the Polaris 10 engineering sample was not much bigger than the R9 Nano so
30:47
AMD has taking this whole yep we are serious about improving efficiency and
30:52
reducing the size let's see if we have a picture well the Nano is a damn cool
30:55
card so like I don't blame them for going that direction and if you're
30:59
running hbm memory you don't have to have all those traces and all that
31:02
additional PCB complexity so you might as well simplify things and improve
31:07
compatibility with smaller cases while you're at it now with that said what we
31:12
have observed about the R9 Nano is there aren't really a whole lot of cases that
31:16
can handle The Thermals but are not designed for a larger 10 and 1 12 in
31:20
sort of NVIDIA reference card these days but if AMD keeps this up some problems
31:25
with the bomb maybe we'll see that change well
31:28
I think the problems with the bomb were as much operator error as anything else
31:33
he that was mean I thought it was cool
31:36
hey it's not like you don't go after me about the servers
31:39
periodically frequently it's fair game frequently like quite frequently so uh
31:45
to be fair I think the servers have more problems than the bomb did had enough of
31:48
had enough of your crap so uh yeah want
31:52
to talk about the crazy knck um the like absolutely insane knck
31:57
yeah let's talk talk about the knck so this was originally posted on the Forum
32:01
by Alex Goes High have you already posted the PC all right let's do it
32:06
meet the new Intel skull Trail knck
32:11
changing the game no no this is this is a reference
32:15
to a demo that Intel did I think I think
32:19
this is a reference to a demo that Intel did back at CES 2015 where they had a
32:25
skull trail system and they were showing a skull trail system accelerating a demo
32:32
where you could zoom in and zoom out of this like really cool photo manager that
32:36
like in real time was resizing pictures as you moved in and out of it and then
32:40
they also had a knck running that demo
32:43
at the same speed now that's not because the knck had the same CPU performance
32:50
but because the skull Trail was running
32:53
purely on CPU and the knck was GPU
32:56
accelerating it and it was a demo of how
32:59
the change in the way that we have and the way that Intel has approached and
33:03
the industry as a whole actually but the way that Intel has approached uh
33:07
improving computer power has allowed new
33:10
experiences with much lower power consumption it was I love that logo I
33:15
yeah I know I've never looked at a nck and be like that looks sick so this is
33:19
the actual device so tell us about it
33:22
then I you're just staring at it you're just
33:27
you're it looks nice you're just a gape it has an i76700 HQ processor with a 45
33:33
wat TDP holy crap like real deal kids I wasn't sure
33:38
if I cared when I saw a nuck because I don't really care about nucks and then I
33:41
read that like got two slots you know whatever Intel Iris Pro Graphics 580
33:46
which you probably could have discerned um Thunderbolt 3 40 GB per second with
33:51
USB 3.1 and uh DisplayPort 1.2 over USBC
33:56
holy crap that's badass War for ddr4 memory up to 32 gigs at some speed which
34:02
probably doesn't matter but is 2133 um full siiz HDMI 2.0 Port so he's
34:07
going to be happy again um Intel dual band wireless AC HDMI 2.0 is kind of a
34:12
big deal just saying it is I know I know I know I was just saying like
34:15
specifically I know I'm not saying everyone should be happy I'm not saying
34:19
they aren't know SD card slot that's
34:22
good that's good to have hey I I like the SD card slot standard like audio G
34:28
land stuff like that infrared sensor so that could actually be kind of cool
34:31
people could do some stuff with that this is like one BA little machine it
34:35
ships with two lids one with the skull logo which you should probably use and
34:39
one with a plain matte black which is a good idea for them to include also matte
34:43
black to it's really funny talking to Intel people and I hope I'm not like
34:48
saying something that I you know someone told me that in confidence or anything I
34:52
don't think so but talking to Intel people about how Ed G putting a skull on
34:59
something is internally at Intel meanwhile it's like skulls are so p a
35:05
man like when was that even edgy like
35:09
like we're talking like no fear clothing
35:13
like yeah putting evil eyes on things is like
35:17
edgy Intel you're like stuck in the 90s
35:21
on the one hand and it's not even like a bone style it's like this cool like uh
35:27
St it looks like looks like a circuit board
35:30
like it's very int so on the one hand you're this like forward look like
35:35
working on crap that you and I won't touch for 10 to 20 years company and on
35:40
the other hand you can't figure out that a skull is not edgy anymore sure about
35:44
skulls yeah maybe it's maybe it's you
35:47
know two we might scare the children
35:50
make sure you ship it with a matte black cover as well yeah you know just in case
35:55
uh because we're too afraid of skull something um so now to be clear it's not
36:02
as small as your grandpa's nuck it's
36:05
it's a 69 liter though which is like
36:09
pretty damn small so it's still small so you know like a quart of milk for the
36:12
Americans or a liter of milk for the non-americans it's still only about 70%
36:18
of that which which is not that small so it's about it's pretty small though 20
36:21
cm long about 8 in long I'm I'm doing rough math I know that's not quite right
36:26
um by 11 cm wide by 23 mm so only about
36:31
an inch thick so it is very very small
36:35
pretty darn high powerered and still not
36:38
good enough to run a VR experience and be strapped to the back of my
36:47
head what w oh my God shots fired I did
36:51
not expect that I was not prepared for that that was good that was that was
36:56
good um you could do is you know like
36:59
this doesn't work don't worry I know it doesn't work it's okay you could get one
37:03
of these and then get one of those like external graphics card encloses just
37:06
hang the whole thing it actually could work how how could you hook it up to
37:10
this uh Thunderbolt it's got Thunderbolt
37:13
Yo No but wouldn't that be CU then you could go out oh that could oh that could
37:17
we have to do that now tot no because cuz in my head I saw
37:22
one output but then you just go to the graphics card and go from the graphics card to the how long do you think
37:28
okay how long do you think you I didn't
37:31
think that was going to work how long do you think you could carry like an APC
37:35
UPS around on your back in the backpack
37:38
I'll do it if we could run one of these
37:41
nucks with like a razor core okay so
37:46
like with like a GTX 980 stupidest thing
37:49
cuz we could just do a laptop oh but
37:52
that's so mainstream that is way too mainstream
37:57
not CR enough for L yeah no no no no no no I'm down I'll like specifically work
38:01
out for we would like we would have to like we would have to actually get like
38:05
like a metal framed hiking backpack y I have one no but we'd have to butcher it
38:10
we should go to like we should go to like like a swap yeah yeah like like
38:14
like SE play what what is that re sports replay or like like a secondhand
38:19
equipment store cuz all we really want is the is the metal frame and then we
38:23
would have to basically find a way to get like some kind of a PS on there to
38:28
power the graphics card and the knck and you'd only be able to play for probably
38:31
like 9 Minutes like I hope you know that already cuz the battery yeah yeah okay
38:36
cuz like that kind of a graphics card sucking back like a couple hundred Watts
38:40
like no ups that you can physically carry is designed to run for longer than
38:45
like you know 10 to 15 maybe 20 minutes
38:50
but that would be
38:53
bananes does HTC and Val do HTC and
38:57
valve intend to have like lighthouses on
39:01
steroids what do you mean do you know what do you mean like Lighthouse units
39:05
but like on steroids so you could you
39:08
know they're lighthouses right yeah but I don't understand the on steroids on
39:11
steroids is like if we had an empty Warehouse say for example putting it in
39:16
the corners of it oh I mean
39:22
theoretically they they have the playbox dimensions
39:26
like no so we'll have to wait for a new
39:32
generation of UPS batteries that is much
39:35
lighter and a new generation of we should attach like a wire frame around
39:41
my waist and have like big long wire arms go out that hold the
39:47
lighthouses now that's just dumb oh I it was a great idea up until then what a
39:51
dick what a dick we could also just like have a helmet with a pole going out on
39:56
it and then hang uh an Oculus one or a
39:59
Mac Pro so you could selfie your VR
40:03
experience the Mac Pro is just for selfies did you see that did you not see
40:08
the Mac Pro selfie stick someone did it as like oh no I didn't see that okay
40:12
yeah yeah people like WTF Luke this used to
40:16
be a Dennis stream we need to bring back Dennis I
40:21
tried last time it didn't really work that well people someone's like worst
40:25
worst W show ever so not worst but it is
40:29
worse worst W show ever so as long as it's not the best best then technically
40:33
it is the worse the worst W show but is it best or best uh I don't know but what
40:39
I do know is that the longer we make fun of the grammar and spelling of our
40:44
audience the closer we're getting to it being the worst W show
40:48
ever um speaking of worst W show ever why don't we talk about the sponsors of
40:52
today's W show yeah dollarshaveclub.com proud sponsor the
40:57
worst W show ever so if you guys were thinking to
41:01
yourself gee I've got a neck beard I
41:05
want to shave a forementioned neck beard but I don't want anyone to see my neck
41:10
beard how could I get shaving supplies
41:14
delivered directly to my door for less than it would cost me to go to the
41:18
grocery store wait around for someone to unlock the stupid locked cabinet that
41:24
the freaking like between razor blades
41:28
printer ink and perfume we've got like a
41:32
trifecta of overpriced stuff that
41:35
shouldn't cost that much that you need to use all the time that you need to use all the time especially if you're hairy
41:41
and you stink and you need to make a lot of printer
41:45
copies okay then Dollar Shave Club is
41:48
the answer by going to dollarshaveclub.com you can get
41:53
reasonably priced shaving supplies to
41:56
lier straight to your door once a month
41:59
and not just razors also their after shave their uh shave their doct Carver
42:05
shav butter and even their peppermint scented butt wipes for men so visit
42:12
dollarshaveclub.com SL lius and join the
42:16
club yep in the US Canada and Australia
42:20
in the US Canada and Australia if you have a neck beard in Europe like I'm
42:23
sorry bro yeah then you're just going to have to go out and wear that neck beard
42:28
loud and proud I mean can you imagine having a neck beard that was so bearded
42:34
that it was legitimately loud would have to have things living in it which
42:39
unfortunately has probably happened at some point probably yeah all right
42:43
moving on to our next sponsor this is a more serious sponsor they don't have
42:47
butt wipes but what they do have is top
42:50
tier manage cloud computing Solutions
42:53
they've got dedicated storage options to meet your performance security network
42:57
cap capacity and compliance needs and
43:00
they are backed by what they call fanatical support they're really well
43:05
known for 247365 baby if you have a problem on
43:10
Christmas Eve or even Christmas day that
43:14
is one of the 365 days in the year and they will take
43:18
care of it now this year was a leap year
43:21
so unfortunately 19 days ago you were
43:25
pretty much so not true because this year had 366 days not as they advertise
43:31
365 okay so once every better than advertis once every four years they
43:35
under promise overd deliver Rackspace takes a day off they don't they
43:40
don't what are we talking about Rackspace they're inviting you to Deep
43:44
dive sessions they take play they take about an hour every week or two to
43:48
discuss benefits of dedicated Solutions in a I have a link for that so if you
43:52
want to take a Rackspace Deep dive you guys can check that out um the long and
43:56
short of it is they will they will discuss you just said it um yep on March
44:01
23rd they'll have one on improving your operational efficiency which is like
44:05
good for everything ever they typically do about three sessions a month via
44:09
Google Hangouts and they will provide you with downloads to reference
44:12
architecture ebooks and white papers on the sessions landing pages so it's live
44:17
with active participation so you can go ask your questions and interact with
44:21
them so there's uh deep Dives coming up on March 23rd and on March 30th the
44:26
second one is how to optimize SQL server for performance and reliability this
44:31
kind of stuff is just plain beneficial so check it out give yourself a chance
44:36
to talk to rockspace experts and learn a little something while you are at it
44:41
which leads us to our last sponsor of the day which has outof dat notes a
44:46
totally a totally uh serious one as well
44:49
Squarespace yeah yeah what what when is the sales team ever going to update our
44:53
Squarespace notes sales team maybe this is part of their crime school you know
44:57
what we should do is we should completely ignore any new Squarespace
45:01
talking points until they update our talking points I'm going to pretend that
45:06
I still think Square squarespace's slogan is you know what you probably
45:09
should simple powerful beautiful you
45:13
should do that you know what else I'm going to say I'm going to say that they
45:16
have 247 support via live chat and email you should say that thank you that would
45:20
be applicable I'm going to say that Squarespace starts at only $8 a month
45:24
and you get a free domain if you buy Squarespace for a year you should also see that that would be accurate I'm
45:28
going to say that their templates feature responsive design so your
45:32
website scales to look great on any device you should also say that they
45:36
have Commerce modules so you can buy stuff and like or well you can sell
45:40
stuff or buy stuff from other people that and if the notes said anything
45:43
about cover pages then you should to talk about how you can have a cover page
45:47
if you want to do something like a resume style website it's like a simple online presence and the most important
45:53
thing that uh you should cover yeah is
45:56
that when you decide to sign up for Squarespace after your twoe free trial
45:59
to try it out and see how simple it is you should save 10% by using offer code
46:06
lonus yeah which um you should do you
46:09
should do thank you thank you thank you for watching The W show you should
46:13
probably build it beautiful you should probably build it beautiful you should probably build it simple and Powerful
46:22
too it is a miracle that anyone sponsors
46:25
us making
46:28
Nick good Brandon informs us we're making Colton and Nick
46:33
cringe I wish we could do more to
46:36
them but alas our words are only so
46:39
powerful from down here they uh they learned to get away from us in crime
46:43
school yeah crime school what have we even talked about on
46:48
the show today Broken baby food jar leads to Sweden's first unstaffed
46:52
grocery store how does that make any freaking sense I don't know but I'll
46:55
tell you Sweden specialist Robert
47:00
whoa
47:04
um I'm gonna I tried Swedish IT specialist Robert owns a store that is
47:10
unmanned it's a it's a town yeah it's in
47:13
a town in Sweden the stord this basically he's trying to feed his I
47:17
didn't see Nick behind the camera did you I see him now yeah basically he's
47:21
trying to feed I believe it was his baby daughter baby whatever and he broke a
47:26
food jar and had to drive really far to find somewhere that was still open
47:29
because it was really late at night or early in the morning or something and he got frustrated and was like why don't we
47:33
just have stores that can be open all the time everywhere so he made a store
47:37
that can be open all the time you you sign up there's a credit check that you
47:42
have to go through you get an app on your phone that so you can like manage
47:45
your purchase and stuff you can just walk in scan the things that you want
47:48
and walk out and then you get a bill once a month that is so cool if the door
47:52
stays open for longer than 8 seconds or is tampered with uh Robert will receive
47:58
an alert there you go I mean to be clear
48:01
this isn't the kind of thing that we're expecting I don't knowas this is uh this
48:06
is not the kind of thing that I'm expecting personally to be able to be
48:11
rolled out in like you know New York or that was terrible York I tried I'm going
48:16
there so I was trying to like oh my God
48:20
New York just screw off um in New York
48:24
in or like you know LA or whatever anytime soon because you'd need a fair
48:28
bit more security but right now it's deployed out in a small town only about
48:32
4,200 residents so exactly the kind of
48:35
town especially in Europe like I've noticed that where the grocery store
48:39
would close at like 400 p.m. oh my God
48:43
and you just be like Switzerland everything closes so early well it was
48:47
the same thing in Germany yeah remember the day we landed in Germany it was like
48:51
2:00 in the afternoon and freaking everything was closed like we couldn't
48:55
get food this is ridiculous um so so it's exactly the
49:00
sort of environment where something where you would have a lot of trust
49:03
between members of the community very small community and you would have the
49:08
frustration of not being able to buy baby food in the middle of the night
49:12
when your baby's freaking hungry and like I don't give a crap about you know
49:16
Sweden swedens and the Swedish people's philosophy about not working too hard
49:21
and all that stuff when my baby's hungry so if you can have a store that just
49:25
plain doesn't need anyone working in it and I can go get a freaking thing of baby food and hey maybe it could be more
49:29
expensive so that you know you could offset the jobs that'll be lost or
49:33
whatever and Justified something my first like legit non like I'm a ref or a
49:41
paper boy or I'm ow your lawn like that kind of stuff my first legit like I get
49:45
a paycheck every two weeks from a big Corporation kind of job was that a
49:50
grocery store so part of like this story
49:53
is cool when I go to grocery stores I use automated tills when I go to Home
49:57
Depot I use automated tills I'm that person already probably horrible because
50:02
it's contributing to stuff like this which is contributing to massive amounts
50:05
of especially low-end jobs going away with that said if there was anywhere
50:09
where I would want to be working at an entry-level job only to have it swept
50:14
out from under my feet it would probably be Sweden cuz they will probably figure
50:18
out how to support those people before other people well a lot of other
50:22
countries won't can you imagine a Donald Trump America
50:27
supporting people who have lost their jobs
50:30
yeah this is really this is really funny this is like super super funny um I was
50:36
reading an article that um was about it
50:40
was it was talking to a writer of an episode of The Simpsons from 16 years
50:45
ago where like I'm pretty sure every show has done this often times it's a
50:49
Christmas special where the the ghost of the future comes back and shows the
50:54
character how how they're life is you know heading anyway so it's the episode
50:59
where Bart um gets to see his future self and he's in like he's in like a
51:04
crappy band and he works in gigs at like
51:07
Nelson's club and and his sister has
51:10
just just won the presidency of the United States and Milhouse one of her
51:15
top AIDS comes in and holds up a chart
51:19
of the of the Staggering deficit that they've inherited from president
51:24
Trump seriously it was so it was so ludicrous like and
51:31
and so the writer saying like we were trying to write an America's gone crazy
51:37
like completely unbelievable worst case
51:40
scenario Simpsons has done that like a few times and that's what we came up
51:44
with like like not like once like they've made crazy predictions like
51:48
quite a few times and I just I thought it was I thought it was amazing didn't
51:53
they do something with like the iPad or something I I'm not
51:57
extremely accurately what's up ni can I help you yeah I'm just going to say you
52:02
ever actually read the not maybe people give me not I give you sorry I can't
52:08
hear you sorry the microphone can't hear you Nick Nick's trying to give us crap
52:12
about not reading his notes I'm just I'm just sitting here judging you maybe I
52:17
should come down and talk about you know how the always 30 minutes late hey hey
52:22
that was because my capture card stopped working today this week is my capture C
52:27
last week it was my camera next week it's going to be my laptop next it
52:31
actually might be his laptop next week we had some problems this time my
52:34
phone's not working that's why the stream can't start his phone's not working I'm just going to build a wall
52:38
so we can't get my Dreamcast stopped
52:44
working is that where you cast your dreams while working Nelson's yeah hey
52:48
that's that was a cool article all right so this next article the original what
52:52
it was posted by Dave has landed joh on
52:55
the Forum oh Nick John needs you um was
52:59
originally posted on oculus.com and this
53:03
is looking pretty impressive we hope except we've all seen this story before
53:08
I mean do you remember do you remember valve's whole like oh yeah there's still
53:12
many games for stream who cares um because just because
53:18
you have a lot of games doesn't mean that they're good however 30 Games is more than I
53:25
expected ocul to have as like actual VR
53:29
games not just games that like will work although I said that and I was told that
53:35
but looking closely at the list there's some things that I didn't actually really notice the first time like keep
53:39
talking nobody explodes actually no that was originally
53:43
a VR game it was later made into a non-vr game mhm uh the where was the ab
53:47
Elite dangerous no that's not the one I was looking for where's the sniper one I
53:51
swear to God I just read a sniper one um project cars no that probably not
53:59
I'm crazy I think I dyslexia the crap out of elite dangerous and thought it was like the Elite Sniper whatever
54:04
Sniper Elite Sniper Elite yeah so I guess that's not in here because
54:08
dyslexia so everything's fine never mind VR tennis online some of these things
54:13
like okay Adventure Time magic man's head games makes me excited because it's
54:18
adventure time makes me worry that it's rushed cuz it's $5 do you still follow
54:23
Adventure Time no oh okay do you uh was
54:26
like good and good and good and good and good and then it kind of lulled and this
54:29
K seems to be getting good again cool yeah that's cool yep Gun Jack is like
54:34
that's a that's a gear VR game mhm it
54:37
like has no place on Rift cuz it's just
54:41
way worse than Valkyrie and that's like about it okay cool you just can't move
54:46
cool and it's now a turret game like okay
54:50
um I don't know okay I am I'm like this this
54:55
doesn't fire topic I guess yeah doesn't really make much of a difference to me
55:00
because these could all suck you get luy tail for free with every purchase and E
55:05
Valkyrie with pre-orders yeah wow I can't believe they're not just going
55:09
toye that worries me which we already knew but that worries me is the EV
55:14
valkyri is called Founders pack super makes it y
55:20
DLC DLC or it's like even possibly going to be freeo
55:25
play with with purchases which might even be
55:30
worse um okay so so much for WD not
55:33
completing their acquisition of SanDisk
55:36
um it has been overwhelmingly approved on both sides SanDisk 98% of their
55:42
shareholders approved the merger in WD it was about 90% so
55:49
um yeah there you go so WD officially
55:53
has Nan fabrication Capac
55:57
good for them yeah um Russian billionaire is saying
56:02
that he can put your brain into a robot
56:05
in 30 years posted by no nerg on the Forum he's really confident he spent a
56:10
lot of money on it I think he wants to live forever I think that's what's going
56:14
on I wouldn't mind living forever you know it's actually kind of
56:18
sad because looking at a lot of the advancements that are being made in both
56:23
transferring Consciousness into a machine and and uh slowing or reversing
56:28
the aging process I feel like our generation just
56:32
barely didn't make it yeah we're going to just slightly Miss yeah like I can I
56:37
could totally see a near future reality
56:40
where if you agree to sterilization or something like that you can prolong your
56:44
life indefinitely Or something like I would I hope they make people agree to
56:49
sterilization because the last thing we need is a bunch of people living forever
56:54
and procreating at at the rate that humans do but
56:59
um anyway although if you get turned into a robot yeah that would yes then
57:06
sterilization would be a thing but um unless you like have a little little
57:10
manufacturing plant so he founded the 2045 initiative in 2011 with the goal to
57:16
create a more advanced non-biological carrier for an
57:20
individual's personality um I'm 100% confident it
57:24
will happen he says otherwise I wouldn't have started it
57:28
doesn't have a God complex at all I have no idea what you're saying yeah
57:32
um okay first part of the project is to create a robotic version of a human body
57:37
that can be controlled by the brain which is scheduled to be completed by
57:40
2020 I mean it's amazing we're only
57:44
hearing about this now when like you know we're at CES watching 3D printed
57:49
Prosthetics need to be controlled via muscle movement I mean surely if you can
57:53
build a whole body in the next and they
57:57
have they have the monkey that was walking on the treadmill I think in the
58:00
states who made a robotic version of the monkey walk on a treadmill in I believe
58:05
Japan both of those locations could be super inaccurate anyways it was super
58:09
far away mhm so I don't know he has poured 1.43 billion into the project so
58:16
far who says money doesn't buy
58:19
happiness if living in a robot makes you
58:23
happy very interesting yeah
58:27
team is made up of Russian Specialists from the fields of neural interfaces
58:30
robotics neuroscience and artificial organs uh this was originally posted on
58:35
RS Technica $15 million verdict in the
58:40
Hulk Hogan sex tape lawsuit could wipe
58:43
out Gawker which uh if you guys don't know
58:48
would include uh let's see Life Hacker
58:52
Gizmodo dead spin Kotaku Jezebel and
58:55
Jalopnik uh Gawker employs about 250
58:59
people and they were sued for publishing a sex tape showing Hulk Hogan having sex
59:05
with his friend's wife so Hogan's lawyer says that The Gawker editor was playing
59:09
God with my client's privacy the sum may have punitive
59:14
damages added to it as well and the jury
59:18
found two men personally liable in
59:21
addition to Gawker media wow so I guess lesson that we
59:26
learned here is that lus Media Group should only publish sex tapes if they
59:31
are of its employees with with consent yeah sure that thetically yeah that's a
59:38
good idea yeah so now now we know now we
59:41
know it's good to know I'm glad we know yes uh we've got another really cool
59:45
thing to show you guys uh this uh for those of you who tuned into to the
59:49
twitch chat getting there earlier this week um or the twitch chat the twitch
59:54
stream earlier this week where like I basically was only intermittently
59:59
streaming there was a reason for that it's really cool um eight members of
60:05
lonus Media Group have Counter Strike models with their faces on them and they
60:10
look freaking awesome um I don't have
60:14
the application installed so unfortunately I can't show you guys the oh here we go here we go there we go
60:19
that's you don't have to have the that's a better look at it uh how do I pen do
60:23
you know how to pen well okay go to edit
60:27
yeah um get then once it loads there's
60:33
some problems very beta which is why we couldn't get it working they tell us
60:36
though that the server should be back up next week and we can try again because
60:40
well I think the server might even be live right now but it's not like with
60:44
how hard we hit it trying to put like a whole team on there and stuff it has
60:48
major problems and they're making like a North American one just for us and all
60:51
this kind of stuff okay well I that is not loading so anyway anys it's pretty
60:56
cool it's cool the real Sense part of it is not beta yeah and actually works
61:02
super well um real sense with ic's 3D
61:06
scans really well um if you guys saw
61:09
the what was it called
61:14
uh 3D scanner that I did probably about a year ago I don't remember what it was
61:18
called I'm sorry I had to attach it to an iPad I scanned Taran I scanned the
61:22
room I remember what was called I did some other stuff yeah
61:26
anyways um it's like better than that
61:30
other than it doesn't does it do Rune scanning scanning the program I use
61:34
doesn't do room scanning I think it theoretically could do room scanning
61:38
just fine just the program I specifically use does not do it um but
61:43
like it yeah you can kind of see go I wasn't that bullish on real sense to be
61:48
perfectly honest um this demo has sold
61:52
me on it in a much much bigger way I
61:55
mean look at that if that doesn't look like a
61:59
terrorist he's making a crazy smile and stuff which is actually cool cuz it it
62:03
made some differentiation between different people's avatars um and like
62:07
if if his head's at a weird tilt or something
62:12
don't what just happened look at it's
62:15
like a pixel yeah whoa if his head's out
62:18
of weird tilt and stuff don't worry about that cuz you can fix that um but
62:21
anyways the real scent scanning went really well then we had to import it into this thing which uh you know didn't
62:28
work as well it uh yeah usually got to
62:32
work I don't know what's going on with his laptop or what's currently going on
62:35
with the site they have like two different beta sites they've been having us use and one's kind of better than the
62:40
other one so I don't really know if this is the right one or not anyways um this
62:43
part had some problems but we got through that made it all work and then
62:46
when we tried to integrate it on the server it was It was kind of weird it was supposed to like attach with your
62:50
steam ID so that when you connect it puts your model mesh onto your character
62:55
and only you onto your character but uh
62:58
there were some major problems like everyone spawning in is Colton this we
63:02
have like four Colton by the way guys this is important to note this is a low
63:05
resolution preview this is not nearly as good as it is looks it actually looks
63:09
considerably better than that yeah I sure wish I could it looks really good
63:14
yeah and it's like yeah it looks shockingly good and I wish I could show
63:17
it to you properly but like I I I'm kind
63:21
of giving up on that at this point but I mean you guys can probably tell sorry
63:25
launch it just stream some Counterstrike dog uh deploy uh do it it might work it
63:32
might work who knows I don't think it's going to work I guess no one would be
63:35
able to see you actually you kill yourself and you look at yourself on the
63:39
floor uh yeah but you okay so I'll have to be like running backwards while I
63:43
kill myself so I raged all backwards do you want to do the next topic while I
63:47
try and get this working
63:54
sure PlayStation VR to released October 2016
63:59
which is not that bad and it cost 399 USD or
64:03
549 Canadian remember when that used to be
64:08
3.99 Canadian yeah I do remember that actually my God anyways that's really
64:14
freaking cool might not exactly be what everyone expected me to say but that's
64:18
awesome because the cost of a PlayStation 4 and a PlayStation
64:24
VR is is cheaper than some entire VR Solutions
64:29
which is true but for the head the thing that we're ignoring here is that a
64:33
PlayStation move is not included okay um
64:36
you could play with the controller and what else was not included I forget what it was there was something there was you
64:41
could definitely just play with the controller yeah but there was some other and I can't look it up on my laptop
64:46
right now but there was there was some other super important periperal that
64:50
would dramatically improve the experience I think it was a camera that
64:54
is also not included um oh cuz the camera does need to see
64:58
the lights that are on the headset so I don't yeah I don't remember what either
65:02
way it's actually a pretty lowcost solution to getting into VR which does
65:06
have a dedicated Processing Unit which is a lot better than like a phone or
65:10
something and if Sony's optimizations are as good as they say
65:14
they're going to be then it could be a pretty good solution for its price and
65:19
like they're they're doing actually very respectable things like saying if
65:23
People's frame rates are too low we're just not allowing them to have the game
65:26
on the store which is awesome because they don't want to allow shitty
65:31
experiences I'm actually really excited for there yeah there's the other article
65:34
Sony to reject any PlayStation VR games that drop below 60 FPS good yeah like
65:40
that's awesome good job so like I'm actually
65:44
kind of stoked for this because
65:49
um yeah hope hopefully it's actually good like that's why I wasn't stoked for
65:54
the sulon G or Q or whatever it was
65:57
because it it doesn't look like it's actually going to be
66:00
good dang
66:05
it I think you have to restart the restart the round or something so I
66:10
think I'll actually have to wait 3 minutes and 40 seconds to find out if my
66:15
uh if my thing will
66:19
load this is a weird server man like the
66:22
chickens have like Playboy bunny ears on them or something
66:28
like what the heck is up with these guys
66:31
Easter oh Easter Playboy Bunny Easter
66:34
chicken that makes perfect sense why didn't I realize
66:39
it I I don't know what else we got don't
66:43
um George Hots so Geo hot you guys might
66:47
know him um attended South by Southwest this year to announce his new company
66:53
comma.ai um yeah discusses plans for
66:56
replacing many jobs with AI plans to start by eliminating all jobs in the
67:00
global Transportation sector replacing them with self-driving cars says his
67:05
self-driving Tech will ship for no more than $1,000 and will work on any car made
67:10
after 2012 once driving job yeah me too once
67:15
driving jobs are gone he plans to go on to the cashiers the secretaries the
67:19
sales people quote unquote those people
67:22
that are easy to replace with AI
67:28
all right
67:32
wrecked okay I'm not surprised it's
67:37
geohot original article was from The Verge so there you
67:41
go um the Razer core finally has a price
67:46
I think I nailed it I don't remember what I said I thought it was going to be
67:49
at the time uh but it'll cost $500 so
67:53
you will actually have to pay $500 just for the privilege of putting a $500
67:57
graphics card into it to run off of your laptop you can save $100 however when
68:02
pairing it with a blade or a blade stealth notebook I Hope they've got the
68:07
hot plug issue sorted out because if they do it is going to make the blade
68:10
stealth to the next gen blade stealth a
68:14
very compelling option current gen to
68:17
little RAM current gen is limited to 8 gigs of RAM which as you know people who
68:23
have paid attention to what I think about 8 gigs of RAM will know I do not
68:27
think is enough I don't know that that sentence made any sense but it doesn't
68:31
have to I ran out of memory almost just did
68:36
uh sorry a spoiler I did I I almost did
68:40
oh and then I didn't for scrapyard Wars oh yeah don't spoil scrapyard Wars okay
68:45
yeah scrapyard Wars is is is being worked on so as of today all the footage
68:51
has been logged people keep asking why does it take so long to edit a video
68:56
because it takes a long time to edit a video if you want it to be good so many
68:59
stages um so the first stage is to take
69:02
all the hours and hours of footage oh my God and not just watch them but actually
69:08
log in an application that isage how
69:13
important what happened how did it apply to the story line what was happening
69:16
elsewhere go grading it uh is there a
69:20
problem with the audio for example does it need extra work is there a better
69:24
clip that could also fill in this Gap did they retake it so logging is now
69:29
done so now the editing well no now I
69:33
think Ed is currently working on um putting together the story arc for the
69:38
season and this is part of the issue that we've run into with previous
69:41
seasons is I am so happy he's doing this haven't taken the time because we've
69:46
been too swamped to do that and even then it takes a long time just to be
69:50
clear um we haven't taken the time to do that so we've ended up with sort of like
69:54
action-packed and then kind boring and then actionpack and then kind of boring
69:57
so we're getting away from that not going to be a thing I'm when I saw him
70:01
doing storyboarding stuff I was like what is this and then he explained it all to me I was like thank you and then
70:06
just I think I just walked away but like that's super awesome and I think we'll
70:10
make a huge difference in the watchability of this graph big part of
70:13
the issue is we just haven't had the Manpower for it I get it and like we've
70:17
had Ed creating graphical assets and like editing ltts and even things like
70:21
fast as possible in between trying to get scrapyard Wars done in the past but
70:25
this time we are going to he's going to put in his earphones for a month and no
70:31
one will talk to him and I am really excited because scrapyard War season 4
70:35
is going to be the best ever um all right so there's a new blade
70:40
14 I have checked in with uh yeah I have
70:44
checked in with Razer we are definitely getting a review unit so um basically
70:49
not a whole lot has changed it's got a core
70:52
i76700 now instead of a fourth processor
70:56
which is what the existing blade had uh the 256 gig model gets a price reduction
71:02
um it still has a 3200x 1800 QHD plus display it now has a an RGB back lit
71:08
keyboard a PCI Express SSD um GPU is the same still a 970m 97m
71:15
are pretty solid and that's pretty much it not much else to say original article
71:21
was from n Gadget USB charging and uh it
71:24
has support for a Thunderbolt 3 Graphics amplifier upon release so if a 970m is
71:29
just not enough for you or you don't want your palms to sweat while you're
71:33
gaming then you can use one of those puppies you could like if you're if
71:37
you're plugging into something you could probably plug in a keyboard as
71:43
well just saying man I'm just saying
71:46
that's it show's over I'm just saying NOP nope shows over we got to go study
71:51
for Crime school yeah we got to go study for Crime school okay there's a couple topics here that I do want to hit next
71:55
week week um but I'm tired and it's time
71:59
to go to Crime school yeah all right so we'll see you guys again next week oh
72:03
you know what oh I don't think we're going to get away with not talking about this gamespot.com original article oh
72:10
Sony responds to Microsoft's invite to connect the Xbox One and PS4
72:17
networks um doesn't directly acknowledge Microsoft's open invitation but suggests
72:23
that it is open-minded to Partnerships
72:27
that is pretty exciting opening the door to crossplatform play was such a huge
72:32
thing for Microsoft to do shouldn't have been a huge thing it should have been a
72:36
thing from pretty much Day Zero since
72:40
Microsoft owned a console and a PC platform just saying yeah but at least
72:45
we are finally making
72:48
progress um thanks to Microsoft finally
72:53
pulling its head out of its butt and
72:57
saying that they wanted crossplatform play to be a thing so developers
73:03
building games for the Xbox One and Windows 10 will be able to support the feature rocket League will be one of the
73:07
first titles to support this makes perfect sense given that it's a controller optimized game so the uh Xbox
73:13
One owners won't have to feel too bad about their controller in that game
73:18
that'll come later to bad like it's actually yeah I know it's like totally
73:22
controller optimized um
73:26
so that's pretty much it oh man there's okay okay fine we'll just have to blow
73:29
through this as well there's a bunch of actually really important stuff that we sort of didn't talk about this week
73:34
originally posted by iush dreams on the Forum a

T-Mobile is back baby announcing YouTube
