and we're live and only five minutes late today that's not bad well okay it's
0:07
not good and we're sorry we apologize very much for being terrible people but
0:13
in our defense we actually had no audio
0:17
five minutes ago and or uh no I guess it
0:20
must have been about 10 minutes ago 5 minutes before Showtime we had no audio
0:24
whatsoever and now we're live and it
0:27
works and everything is working
0:30
hopefully we're making a lot of assumptions here we are yes okay there's
0:35
one thing that isn't can't even connect to Twitch chat so I can't sign into the
0:40
dock see your dock not up I can't see if
0:43
we're actually working cuz twitch chat's all bugged I was in the dock when we
0:46
filmed the show introduction I know I know I was in the dock like two minutes
0:51
ago and the stupid thing is oh
0:56
man I'm not getting the what's the o You're
1:02
beautiful actually it's been really inconsistent lately and have you noticed
1:06
they don't give you other options anymore there's no option for send me a
1:09
text again unless you wait a 100 years and then there's no option to call you
1:13
with it so it's like send a text to your backup phone which is my wife's phone
1:17
not going to be super helpful we're talking about a backup not like I should
1:21
need to use this all the time yeah yeah
1:24
and then the other option is use a backup code why I use my backup codes
1:28
all the time you know what twostep service is is ungodly though ungodly bad
1:32
or good good okay sure V yeah it seems
1:37
like the emails like been received before you actually press the button to
1:41
send it but it isn't but it like it feels that way actually hot mails is
1:44
pretty good too hot mails saved me from having my account hijacked because it's
1:49
proactive about it it communicates with you if it thinks there's a problem via
1:53
your other communication methods and it's like yo dog if you don't think this
1:58
is okay then you need to let us know right away like how credit card
2:02
companies are supposed to do stuff yeah yeah actually they've they don't even
2:05
call me like when I leave the country anymore it used to be like I went and
2:09
bought like a you know something expensive like ring ring and my credit
2:14
card wouldn't work I I called them up to tell them I was going on a trip once and
2:18
they're like why are you why are you telling us and I was like what wouldn't
2:22
you want to know if there's like these weird charges from another country
2:25
they're like no it's fine it's like um
2:29
okay like if there's local purchases on a card that I have only ever used for
2:33
online purchases for four years and they local purchases in like Korea you're not
2:38
going to think that's weird and they're like no it's okay I was like okay I need
2:43
to pay more attention to what transactions go through my credit card
2:47
cuz you're not okay well you're the only one with the dock up because I just
2:50
requested two text messages and they haven't come through so let's start with
2:55
the Apparently leaked specs of the iPhone we supposed to start with the
2:59
thing then do the intro Oh I thought we already did that for some reason nope
3:02
NOP we haven't done that all right well call outs that we have are Chrome is
3:06
wasting power on your computer mainly notable for people with laptops but
3:10
we'll talk about that more later Microsoft has cut 18,000 jobs including
3:16
Barnacle sorry buddy we tried to get him on the show but I think he's dealing
3:20
with other things at the point at this point in time which makes total sense
3:23
stuff to do ESPN will be broadcasting the Dota 2 tournament they'll be
3:27
broadcasting it on ESPN 3 with a highlight pre-show kind of thing on ESPN
3:32
2 at like 8:30 of the day before or something and Google+ is withdrawing its
3:37
real name required policy right after they made everyone merge their accounts
3:41
thanks guys um yeah I guess we'll talk
3:44
about that later too Eno
3:58
time
4:10
and of course we have sponsors # Linus
4:14
Squarespace you guys have an opportunity to have a chance to win a free year of
4:19
Squarespace websit this so go ahead and
4:22
tweet to hashtag Linus Squarespace if you have a Squarespace site if you don't
4:27
have one of course you can get 10% off one with the offer code even if you
4:30
don't win we will be drawing a winner later on in the show our other sponsor
4:35
this week is 54 Club yes they're back
4:39
they're not totally afraid of sponsoring the W show after I completely screwed up
4:44
the uh the whole sponsor segment thing for them on July the 4th I'm amazed
4:49
they're back apparently fourth the fourth 54 Club you know what's funny
4:54
about 54 Club is I've actually had people ask me do they have clothing for
4:59
people who are normal
5:07
height so this is this is both a you know this is either a misunderstanding
5:12
or you're taking a shot at me for being short going like oh it's lonus he must
5:17
be endorsing sh people clothes and the company's called 54 I'm like no that's
5:21
not what the 54 is for anyway all right
5:24
let's move on to our first topic so we told people what the 54 was for on the
5:28
fourth
5:32
10 10 four no all right good
5:36
work anyways moving on we have the
5:40
Apparently supposedly leaked specs supposedly one thing in it makes me
5:44
really think that's probably not true actually I'm going to disagree with you
5:48
so this is post by I fear Z On The Forum but I'm going to let you go ahead first
5:53
oh I guess screen size uh anyways I'll just run through specs because there's
5:56
not a lot other than specs but iPhone
6:00
Air oh whatever it's iPhone 6 we call it
6:04
yeah uh 4.7 in 1280x 800 resolution a 32
6:09
gig 64 gig or 128 gig capacity yeah no 16 gig um A8 chip with 64bit
6:15
architecture and M8 motion co- processor eyesight camera with like like I sight
6:22
camera um with 12 megapixels and 4K video recording fingerprint second gen
6:26
identity sensor iOS 8 and it'll come in
6:30
colors of silver gold and space gray I don't know why gray needed its own
6:34
little well space gray I mean it's different from like you know gunmetal
6:38
gray or Battleship Gray but then there's different versions of silver and gold
6:42
Gray's Anatomy 50 Shades of
6:46
Gray well 50 Shades of Gray would be 50 different right so that could include
6:51
space gray okay so the point is um I
6:55
don't know this looks perfectly right to me especially if they're going to have a larger version and Marcus's video as
7:01
well as the bajillion copycat videos showing off the sapphire glass um it
7:07
actually kind of drove me crazy in his video I should probably I should
7:10
probably you can see through it no well okay that drove me a little bit crazy
7:15
too because I he says right in his video
7:18
that he's never held a piece of Gorilla Glass and then he's kind of marveling at
7:23
how amazing the sapphire crystal glasses and I'm kind of like uh dude Gorilla
7:27
Glass is like actually pretty similar I mean it was not going to have quite the
7:31
same degree of scratch resistance but in terms of being really flexible being
7:35
very clear you know if you hold it in front of your eye and don't hold it in front of your eye uh the human eye is
7:40
not going to be able to differentiate between something like Gorilla Glass 3
7:44
and sapphire crystal glass just like holding them up and trying to look
7:47
through them you're going to need actual equipment for that but no the thing that
7:51
kind of bugged me was he kept calling it a panel and right it's not a panel of
7:56
glass that you don't have a panel of glass you have an LCD panel and you have
8:00
a glass cover over top of it um so
8:03
anyway anyway anyway anyway the whole point is that if iPhone 6 in its 4.7 in
8:10
version ends up also having a bigger brother which Marcus's video um which
8:15
did a great job of just showcasing how amazing that piece of glass is if
8:20
Marcus's video is true and that's a piece for a bigger one then I think it
8:23
makes perfect sense that this one is going to be a mere 1280 by 800
8:27
resolution display and I just jumped into this assuming only one I actually
8:32
even forgot about the fact that that thing was bigger because they always
8:35
just release one but Steve Jobs doesn't exist anymore so maybe they'll release
8:39
more than one yeah and I mean the thing too for me is that at 4.7 in or even at
8:44
5 in or even at even at sort of yeah at
8:49
almost any size for a phone I don't
8:52
actually find 720p to be not enough I
8:57
don't think it's I I think I can can still tell the difference between 720p
9:01
and 1080p but it doesn't bother me I mean you're using a Moto X now this
9:05
isn't going to be that's a pretty small screen what is it 4.5
9:09
4.3 I can't remember that's a fair amount of
9:13
difference screen size 4.7 inch let's
9:17
just have a really small bz so there you go um I and does it make a difference to
9:21
you yeah it's not bad but I can definitely
9:27
tell the difference doesn't look as good as my G2 did right like it's fairly I
9:32
don't know makes a noticeable difference for sure the flip side of that or not
9:36
the flip side buying a premium cost phone the extension of that is that LG's
9:40
G3 with its 1440p screen really didn't
9:43
make that much of a difference that's a different you can't compare that necessarily because you're you're
9:48
comparing lower resolution difference versus higher resolution difference that's not fair you can't compare the
9:53
noticeable difference between lower resolutions to the noticeable difference between higher
9:57
resolutions what do you you talking about I'm saying okay I'm saying 720p
10:03
versus 1080p is a noticeable leap but
10:06
doesn't make that much of a difference to me whereas beyond that it makes no
10:10
difference to me at all that's all I'm trying to say okay that's not how you worded it so I mean I don't mind that
10:15
Apple's not giving us a higher resolution display I understand why they're doing it because the way that
10:19
their whole ecosystem works with every app just works every app looks right on
10:23
every phone every time they change something like that I mean when the iPhone 5 first launched with the taller
10:29
play it was disaster town for a long
10:32
time in terms of app compatibility everyone had to run out an update so if
10:36
they were to all of a sudden be supporting three different resolutions
10:40
now it's becoming more like an Android like experience for the app developers
10:44
so I I I totally get that it's just um I
10:47
like I'd like to see 1080p I just don't think it's the end of the world yeah I think it'll still be pretty Sim uh no
10:52
okay not similar but I think it will still be a lot easier for people to
10:56
develop on iPhone than Android just because
10:59
you have these different resolutions but at least you don't have all these different devices with crazy different
11:04
Hardware in them like I know the the bounding guys had tons of issue with uh
11:10
like getting their balancing correct across all devices right because you
11:14
have to move it around right because you're moving the phone around so they'd
11:17
have certain things where like they put it down on the table Yeah they can't see
11:21
the table so put it down put it down on the table and with their default code
11:24
it's sitting there still but it's showing the thing just flying all over
11:27
the place right because it didn't make sense so they had to write adaptive code
11:31
to manage all the different devices which is interesting but with apple
11:35
you'll have much less differences in ter
11:38
of that but then resolution will be yeah I I don't know oh one thing that we
11:42
missed there giving the Renown of the specs is they're going to have a touch
11:45
id2 fingerprint identity sensor so it looks like they're improving it already
11:50
oh did you did you cover that oh okay I was probably just wasn't paying attention so the the one they have right
11:56
now though is really good didn't you say yeah I I really like it I mean it's not
11:59
the most secure thing in the world but it was never expected to be no um and
12:02
it's still going to be more secure than most just like T passwords
12:06
anyways there we go oh I forgot something actually for the 54 clothing
12:12
thing today we actually have a giveaway and you guys should definitely
12:15
participate in this so let me just find it tweet tag 54 on
12:22
Twitter tag your friend and use hash
12:26
Linus 54 okay so send out that tweet and
12:31
whoever that is uh US and Canada by the way has a chance to win um free month
12:37
worth of clothing clo yes so basically
12:40
you just got to find a buddy and do it to each other no no no no no no you tag a friend who you think will enjoy 54 to
12:46
enter to win a package of clothes from 54 for yourself yeah okay yeah we should
12:51
ask them if they can send clothes to your buddy too that'd be pretty cool that would be pretty cool you know what
12:54
I'm just going to I'm going to preemptively be like yes you and your
12:58
buddy both both win it and now there's nothing they can do they're just going
13:01
to hate me they are going to hate you like falsified information on all of the
13:07
sponsor integration it's not false it's
13:10
just not true but I will make it true
13:14
therefore it's true I guess if they're if they refuse to do it I will buy you a
13:19
month worth of 5'4 so there you go all right okay then this is why we don't
13:22
have air conditioning in the office cuz I'm too busy buying five4 clothing for
13:27
people yeah all right so let's go ahead
13:31
and uh move on to actually a really
13:35
amazing little piece of uh piece of
13:38
articl over on Forbes here so here's the original article written by Ian Morris
13:43
Google's Chrome web browser and this is a very sensationalist title Ian Google's
13:49
Chrome web browser is killing your laptop battery he needed he needed to
13:54
just there were a couple things there were a couple things Ian over here
13:58
needed to do to make this not sensationalist so could have put life at
14:02
the end killing your laptop's battery life or not use the word killing so is
14:10
no just yeah life battery life it's not
14:13
killing the batter okay you could make the argument that it is killing the
14:16
battery because the battery does have a finite number of charge and discharge Cycles but it's not the primary concern
14:22
here so what's going on why does your
14:25
laptop battery and it's not just running
14:29
Chrome and doing things in Chrome having
14:32
Chrome open is enough do you want to run through the details here uh which if
14:36
you're a chrome user you're going to have Chrome open all the time especially
14:40
because Google wants you using Chrome as
14:43
like a desktop application replacement
14:46
yeah in a lot of different places in a lot of different places so like they're
14:50
going to try to make you keep it open all the time which I'd really rather not
14:53
but either way so how this works is your
14:57
where is it system clock tick rate which is normally set at about 64 times per
15:01
second is being ramped up to 1,000 times per second so your processor tries to go
15:06
to sleep in these little intervals so that you save power when it's not doing
15:09
things um so with most web browsers if you're doing something heavy like
15:13
watching a YouTube video it will do this but when you stop watching the YouTube
15:17
video it will stop and it'll go back to 64 ticks uh instead of a th ticks but
15:22
Chrome explain what a tick is I just did
15:26
not kind of tick I think I did it pretty well oh okay i' said it's your your
15:31
processor goes to sleep in between these ticks okay sure but what in between
15:35
ticks but what what is the tick then it's like let it's it's a Timing System
15:39
pro programs can use it to so they keep up to date and keep up to speed get to
15:43
process things so so the tick rate is how often it's checking basically yeah I
15:47
said okay but fine whatever your explanation was great here you go no not
15:53
at all um anyways continuing forward
15:56
this can effectively apparent ly cause your laptop's batteries to die 25%
16:01
faster and I don't remember where the note is but it's somewhere in his uh
16:07
chart here on a desktop it can go from about 12 to 15 watts to I think it was
16:12
20 watts at idle anywhere from 15 to 20
16:16
watts of power consumption at idle not doing anything just having the Chrome
16:20
browser open on the screen so 15 to 20 watts with chrome 12 to 15 watts with
16:25
nothing else so kind of brutal I mean I guess that
16:30
performance has got to come from somewhere I mean there's the uh you know
16:34
those commercials they have where they have like the machine that fires thing
16:38
and the potato thing that's actually pretty cool it is really cool and it's
16:41
I'm glad that Chrome is faster than that but I wish that uh I wish that they
16:45
didn't have to make my battery life not
16:48
go for as long um to achieve it wish I
16:51
wish if one of the requirements was that it was at least your Focus window yeah
16:55
like if it's what you were clicked on at that point in time I can kind of get
16:59
that sense that would maybe help a little bit but like if it's in the
17:03
background and maybe you're not watching YouTube videos which are doing it in all
17:06
other browsers anyways it would be nice if it kind of slowed down a little bit
17:10
because I don't really need my processor being uh my uh web browser able to very
17:14
effectively play those super Annoying video ads that are on places like tweak
17:18
town and a few other websites going to keep on TW and still remove so annoying
17:24
oh my God every single time I see an article from them I'm like okay I got to
17:27
do this one as fast fast as possible so I can close this damn
17:31
website anyways um anyway Google has
17:35
acknowledged the issue and they're working on a fix for it um it has been
17:39
acknowledged internally like they're they're looking at it now they've acknowledged it as a bug it's on the
17:45
it's been assigned so apparently the only Annoying part of that is that
17:49
they've known about this for an extremely long time and it's been being
17:53
reported for an extremely long time and then like the Forbes and a couple other
17:58
people are like hello and then they're finally like oh yeah okay we'll do it
18:02
but no timeline has been given for the fix no so they haven't been working on
18:06
it yet I suppose no not at all they're probably it's probably like buried at
18:10
the bottom of some overworked programmer's queue it's just like okay
18:15
I'll do it at some point all right maybe who knows so we do this from time to
18:22
time we always kind of have this debate
18:25
but this is an amazing piece of news for
18:29
pro gaming and any hope that it has of
18:34
becoming an acceptable mainstream thing the international 2
18:41
will be on ESPN did I say two I meant four the
18:47
International Tournament four so this is the fourth International Tournament Dota
18:50
2 tournament yes uh will be broadcast on
18:54
ESPN so there's going to be a couple of different there's going to be couple
18:58
different streams so it's going to be featured on their digital channel ESPN 3
19:02
with a preview of Monday's final this will be an ESPN exclusive preview of
19:06
Monday's Final on ESPN 2 at 8:30 p.m.
19:10
Pacific Time on the preceding Sunday
19:13
they are going to have Gabe new on they are going to be like giving it the
19:18
actual treatment we're talking the streams have got like liveaction you
19:22
know instant replay something that I'm not entirely sure makes a ton of sense
19:27
for a mode but it kind of does you just don't play
19:31
them well okay hold on a second though because I mean okay do you need an
19:35
instant replay of an attack being executed unless it's something that's
19:40
particularly exciting like oh oh my God he almost made it but he didn't quite I
19:45
think that's more the point and like if someone is if if say say there's an
19:48
attack that's like a skill shot so it's a free flying thing that has to collide
19:51
yes if someone shoots that and then someone use uses an evasion thing and
19:55
like just jumps over it that could be something cool to show or if someone
19:59
just Nicks I think it's going to be a lot of skill shot based stuff or if someone hits spectacularly hard some
20:04
crazy critical and just crushes someone they could show that because it would look cool I don't know it would look
20:09
cool to gamechanging parts of Team battles yeah like if something kind of
20:13
happens but they want to show you the whole team battle then they can snap back and be like this was very important
20:17
this is where the tide turned blah blah blah for analysis and whatnot I guess
20:21
that's more like that's more like during a commercial break thing and that's what
20:24
I was seeing as kind of the issue because you won't be able to show that
20:28
very effectively with an instant replay not really because you're going to want
20:32
to kind of draw the X's and O's and kind of go okay yeah here's what went down
20:36
pause it for a second here's what went down this is that's more of an analysis
20:39
thing that's not an instant replay thing instant replay here's the battle a
20:43
couple people died it's like yeah I was watching that a little bit slower but hold on a second I didn't follow because
20:47
the thing about a Sports Broadcast is think about who it's catering to the
20:52
hardcore guys who really get you know
20:56
League of Legends or Dota 2 or these these mob type games these guys are
20:59
already watching on Twitch they're already aware of this if the objective
21:03
of broadcasting on ESPN which it damn well is is to appeal to a more
21:07
mainstream audience there's going to be no benefit to that they're going to look
21:10
at that and go hold on a second I think it would be a benefit to that if they
21:14
were a lot further down the line like if this was already mainstream like
21:18
football yeah because they do that in football it makes more sense but then
21:21
they're not they're not worried about what you're talking about which they
21:24
should be worried about and you're right um that's interesting so I would see it
21:28
being more like I was talking about the skill shot stuff y the the exciting this
21:33
was close this barely missed like you can do it really slow and watch the
21:37
skill shot missed by like a pixel or something like that would be cool I mean
21:41
is that actually okay here I'm going to I'm going to reveal a little bit of my
21:44
ignorance here in instant replays of a game like Dota 2 do you have alternate
21:49
camera angles that you can control as a
21:52
broadcaster if we were talking about League I would know um that's another
21:56
thing they're there have spectators I'm I'm pretty freaking
22:01
sure it has spectator ability so their casters would be able to have The
22:04
Spectator camera which that's what I find exciting about an instant replay is
22:10
you kind of like you you okay let's take hockey for example because I'm Canadian
22:14
I it's probably the only sport I watch actually yeah so hockey for example um
22:19
you saw the slap shot from the point and it's in the back of the net and you're
22:22
just like okay but then the instant replay shows you what actually happened
22:29
to make that happen so maybe there was a tip where where someone kind of yes it
22:33
does slid in front of the goal camera's free okay so that makes a ton more sense
22:37
it's just going to depend on how well they can execute it and right now
22:41
there's a little bit of okay it's not quite perfect because they have the the
22:45
streams that are designed for the more experienced viewers and then they actually have what are supposed to be
22:50
more Noob accessible streams that are
22:53
supposed to sort of take away from the or not use as much of the term
22:57
terminology that a casual Observer might not understand but right now it's a bit
23:01
of a mixed bag so there's talk of you know ganking when my mother's not going
23:06
to understand what ganking what ganking is but then the flip side is they're
23:10
dumbing it down a little bit too much sometimes explaining what the green bar above the character means which I but
23:16
you know what the funny thing is what honestly they should probably do that but then they should also explain what
23:20
ganking is it should be super Baseline they should explain what everything is
23:23
but the problem is that where are you going to find a basic DOTA two cast
23:29
yeah yeah yeah because those guys are
23:32
not going to be accustomed to to Casting
23:36
the game as if someone who doesn't understand what's going on is watching
23:39
but they they should try and find like coaches there's coaches so they should
23:43
try and find coaches that will stream it because it's not as important about
23:47
being like the hype guy because often times there's the the technical guy and
23:51
the hype guy if you're doing a two cter setup if you're doing a three cter setup
23:55
a lot of times it's the technical guy the hype guy and then the guy that's mainly just controlling the camera
23:59
because if you want to make it super cool you have someone control the camera what I'm hoping is that they have like a
24:03
small army of people that are all controlling separate cameras so they can
24:06
get those really cool instant replays that like you were talking about
24:11
um but yeah like on a educational stream
24:15
you wouldn't need the hype guy really just have two have two coaches
24:20
that can be like oh well this is what they were thinking here and this is why
24:23
they thought that these characters can do these different things so this is why they're using them in these different
24:26
ways by the way he hits him with that giant spell his green bar goes down that
24:31
represents his HP and when he casts that spell his blue bar you can't even say HP
24:35
see as Gamers we catch I'm not a coach yeah fair enough yeah all right so guys
24:40
I have a straw poll for you because in
24:43
okay in outside of North America this kind of
24:46
thing wouldn't be that big of a deal a televised game tournament it's like yeah
24:50
okay whereas here this is this is a huge
24:55
huge deal like huge deal this kind of thing doesn't happen over here so I'm
25:00
posting a straw pull in the twitch chat if I could get the thing to load there
25:04
we go here we go straw pole guys need to
25:08
know what you think does a televised North American broadcast of a top tier
25:14
gaming tournament like this I mean we're talking over $10 million of prize money
25:18
with the compendium and valve's contribution does this validate gaming
25:23
as a mainstream and let's let's not use the word sport let's say competition
25:28
because I think there's a lot of people kind of get H up on the sport personally
25:32
I get hung up on the sport it's not a sport we can call it an ort we can call
25:36
it a a competition we can call it a whatever else but we can't really call
25:40
it a sport at least opinion um so guys I'd love for
25:45
you guys to hit hit us up on this straw pole and I want to see what you think in
25:49
the meantime we'll move on to the next topic while you guys weigh in on this
25:53
but uh you know I I don't know it's funny because as much as TV
25:58
like broadcast television is a a dying
26:01
Medium as opposed to a growing medium or at least not an explosive grow medium
26:06
Twitches huge yes it's got a long tail
26:10
on it it's going to be a long time before it's completely irrelevant and
26:13
you know what's funny about it is even
26:16
though you know I look at something like
26:20
YouTube my my primary distribution platform or I look at something like
26:24
broadcast television and I go okay if someone casted me in a TV commercial the
26:30
actual reach of that the impact that that has on on my personal
26:35
notoriety not a whole lot in terms of actual eyeballs looking at it but for
26:40
some reason they've done such a good job over the years of being the prestigious
26:45
thing compared to web and it's going to be a long time before that shifts even I
26:49
still View tv as a bigger deal than
26:53
being a big deal on YouTube when you're on YouTube You're internet famous yeah
26:57
and the implication like the the tongue and cheek internet famous term comes
27:02
from the lack of respect we have for people who are internet famous compared
27:06
to people who are real famous because there's internet and then there's TV and
27:10
then there's Silver Screen and it's going to be that way for a long
27:17
time apparently apparently Josh from
27:21
fractal is trying to buy air conditioning units for the office anding
27:27
to check my not realizing that I'm still going to have to pay for the electricity which is
27:31
not happening so he can buy the AC units
27:35
wow but they're going to they're going to they're going to go wherever it is that they
27:38
go W if we do AC here it'll be Central
27:42
AC not those stupid window Mountain won't even pay for the electricity for a
27:47
paid for AC unit all right my boss so so
27:52
here you go here's what you guys said about the straw pole um I'll give you
27:56
guys one more chance to to uh to weigh in right now let's just fire up the uh
28:01
this guy right here people are asking me
28:04
if I'm going to hire Barnacles what makes people think I can afford
28:07
Barnacles what makes people think Barnacles lives here what makes people
28:10
think Barnacles wants to move himself and his
28:14
family there's been a lot of Twitter chatter about when I'm going to hire
28:18
Barnacles I'm not going to hire Barnacles he's got his own YouTube
28:22
channel that's actually growing at a reasonable rate he's got his own things
28:25
to do anyway does a North American TV broadcast mean gaming is going
28:30
mainstream we've got 60% of you saying yes but not for a while 20% of you
28:35
saying yes now and the final 20% of you
28:38
saying no that's ridiculous you know
28:41
what I I would have said no that's ridiculous a year
28:45
ago I'm going to agree with the 62% 61%
28:49
yeah I'm going to go with those guys I don't think this is I think once once
28:53
like all the major matches are cast on ESPN 2
28:58
and I mean you got to look at you got to look at it like any sport the acceptance
29:03
is going to come down to stuff that goes Way Beyond being broadcast on TV the NHL
29:08
is broadcast on TV in the United States that doesn't change the fact that
29:12
outside of maybe a dozen to a couple
29:15
dozen areas that doesn't mean that the NHL really has any penetration compared
29:20
to how widely accepted and how widely viewed it is in Canada yeah so watching
29:26
the water usage statistics for the
29:30
Olympic Games is hilarious during hockey matches yeah it was the uh it was I
29:35
think the the gold medal the gold medal Canada game or something like that where
29:39
basically nobody used the bathroom in the entire country while the game was on
29:44
and then the the water pressure of the entire
29:47
country got destroyed and as as as it went into overtime or something I forget
29:52
what game this was exactly I think it was it was an Olympic game but as it
29:55
went into overtime it got worse and worse cuz people would be kind of
29:59
holding out holding out no I really need to go and then they'd wait for an overtime
30:03
period oh hilarious all right ESPN to cast Dota 2
30:09
tournament that's extremely exciting though I mean it's a turning point it's
30:12
I think it's slightly like it's not I don't think it's enough because saying
30:17
ESPN is casting it I think is almost a
30:20
little bit sensationalist just because it's ESPN 3 yeah it's it's they well
30:25
hold on they have that pregame cover on ESPN 2 that's the important part though
30:29
is the pregame coverage and that's why I was saying once it's like once it's once
30:33
that pregame coverage is all the major matches and once it's not the pregame
30:38
once it's the final once it's like that kind of stuff I think that's more
30:42
important but this is still extremely cool it's I just think it's it's like
30:47
the first stone in the like walk that we need to create and it's not even that
30:51
big of one right it's just very cool
30:54
that it's actually there so this is a post from Builder on the Forum Google+
30:59
now lets you use any name you
31:03
want okay thank you Google I still wish
31:08
late yeah it's it's a little late and it's a little frustrating I've already
31:12
created you know my using a page for
31:16
Linus Tech tips as opposed to just having a normal person account um I've
31:22
already like I've already done all this stuff I've already gone through all this
31:25
stress of every time I merge any Google
31:30
service or create any new one or rename
31:33
anything worrying about oh my God is it
31:36
permanent now oh my god do I have to
31:40
completely junk this YouTube account
31:44
because instead of Techquickie with two capitals I forgot to make the second
31:49
queue a capital and I cannot change that because thank you Google uh
31:55
so to me it's just too a little too late it's got 4,300 pluses on the on the post
32:01
that's shared on go+ of course and one thing that I thought was really cool
32:05
about it is that their um their development lead is actually in the
32:10
Google+ comments check this out replying
32:13
to individual people's concerns about the change because the reality of it is
32:18
not everyone's happy about it some people liked the real name policy on go+
32:25
and were users of Google because they felt like the real name policy took some
32:30
of the trolling out of it I don't know is there
32:35
anything uh he he said specifically at one point um where some people are
32:41
saying it's come out in play time for trolls but he said one of the reasons it
32:44
is safe to do at this launch is their troll smashing department has gotten
32:48
very good at their jobs which is that's cool and all but I don't necessarily
32:53
what are you doing don't worry about it carry on okay um that's cool and all but
32:58
I don't necessarily know if that'll help I'm sure there will be what was it Bob
33:02
and his tank or whatever I'm sure they will come back um but I don't even know
33:06
if I care I would much rather have personally at least much rather be able
33:09
to have an account which doesn't have my name on it I never had an account that
33:13
have my name on it right I I once once they were like trying to force you to
33:16
merge your accounts I just stopped using my personal account on YouTube and
33:20
started using my work one so I didn't have to merge them so I could keep them
33:23
separate and now I might merge my old personal account right just cuz like
33:27
that's stupid I don't want to do that for me it's frustrating because I don't
33:31
go by my by my real name really like Austin Evans goes by his real name
33:36
across the board on the YouTube channel on Twitter everywhere whereas I don't go
33:41
by that I go by Linus Tech or Linus Tech tips or whatever else not because I
33:46
think it's better but because I think
33:49
it's it just is what I did in the first place and I can't change it thanks
33:53
Google so that's where we're at how I've always used the internet and like
33:57
including Forum sign up and everything that I've always done until fairly
34:01
recently when I've had a public Persona is I've used this thing which is called
34:05
fakenamegenerator.com and all you have to do is put in a
34:11
gender a name set which there's a lot of different name sets to choose from and a
34:16
country which there's also tons of different countries to choose from and
34:19
it gives you like all the form fill inable information wow that you could
34:24
like possibly need it even gives you a fake job job it even gives you a fake
34:28
SSN it gives you a fake vehicle it gives
34:32
you like you I drive a 2004 Lexus LFC
34:35
what do you drive badass apparently a 1995 Hyundai at Lantra
34:40
yeah my name is apparently Stacy B Warner wow that's interesting mine's
34:45
Justin M Anderson you got something to tell
34:50
me mind you you're 29 and I'm 68 so as
34:54
much cooler than you as I am right now I'll be dead soon yeah yeah I haven't
35:00
like I don't know I haven't put in any yeah the gender set to random and stuff
35:03
but um that's what I used to do mainly
35:06
when I was younger because I just didn't want to give my information to people
35:09
and I still don't normally like I think
35:12
I have my real information filled in and just a few main services that I'm really
35:17
worried about it would be very damaging if I lost them right so that if I called
35:21
up and they're like what is all your information I could be like well I know
35:24
that I don't have to make this stuff up because yeah and if they're like oh we need to
35:29
see like an ID right because there's a few a few different Services that'll do
35:33
that then I can actually show my real ID and it's fine you know the funny thing
35:37
about that whole thing is I'm not I'm not sure how I feel about people being
35:42
people using a real identity online for certain things for some stuff I like I
35:47
don't okay again so my problem is that I wanted to go buy an alias because my
35:51
Alias is much more wellknown than my actual name but but elas is your I mean
35:58
but well it's part of my name and there aren't that many luses so it's really
36:01
not very private yeah um compared to if I went by you know uh Bob the PC Builder
36:07
as if that wasn't going to result in a loss Tech Builder TV something something
36:11
like that I for some things online I still don't mind people using their real
36:16
names because removing that anonymity does remove a little bit of Butthead
36:22
yeah but then at the same time if if someone even if you're saying something
36:25
that isn't butt head and someone takes offense to it
36:29
somehow there are there are 100,000
36:33
legitimate really great reasons to not have to reveal your identity online
36:37
totally get it I think there would be interesting places like uh like the FCC
36:41
Forum but then that's also scary because government could be pissed at you
36:45
exactly so I just I just don't think it's that cut and dried and apparently neither does Google they're still
36:48
defending their old position of asking for people's real names while as they
36:53
continue so originally they what allowed nicknames and then now they're just
36:57
removing the whole thing entirely so as they've stepped back from that Hardline
37:01
policy they're still saying that the old one was what it was yeah um which I
37:06
guess leads us into yes does it what our sponsor spot
37:12
okay all right so let's go ahead and search for that hashtag I'm going to I'm
37:16

38:18

38:21
swimsuits for girls that don't have straps they just go across now I'm
38:25
censoring their logo with their logo
38:29
one of these days they're just going to be like we're sick of this guy's
38:32
crap damn it he's going to keep pushing the boundaries of what he can get away
38:36
with when he talks about our company next thing you're going to do though because they're mad about the logo logo
38:40
thing you're just going to slide this up oh I know you can't slide that up I was
38:44
going to be like we can be like the guy from Star Trek and have like the the eye
38:47
cover thing all right hash lonus 54 I'm
38:52
GNA go ahead and I'm going to just
38:55
randomly I don't know okay Steve G seems like he
39:00
has a pretty cool name let's see if he did it right so Steve G you got uh here
39:07
we go Linus screen share check out 54
39:11
Linus 54 and tags presumably his buddy
39:15
Brian Miller 1111 all right Steve G I'm GNA go ahead
39:19
and follow you on the Twitter's here and uh you are the big winner
39:24
congratulations so go ahead and send me a DM we'll get your information sorted
39:28
out and uh you get $120 worth of
39:31
clothing from 54 but of course we have to tell you about 54 service so
39:35
basically if you hate shopping 54 is
39:38
designed for you if you hate people looking at you like they're judging you
39:42
and you pick the wrong clothes in the store do you get that feeling no really
39:46
nope I do I just I get really anxious I
39:50
don't care at all but then that also
39:53
makes the shopping experience not good and also helps with 5 for you know what
39:57
because then I don't have to care it just shows up the problem for me is that
40:02
I like I okay the problem for me is I
40:05
have like this weird mental block where like if you look bad because you don't
40:11
care and you obviously just picked up whatever then I kind of get that whereas
40:17
if you look bad even though you obviously tried really hard to look good
40:22
I can get a little judgy me too I I get the exact same thing actually that's a
40:26
very good point get a little judgy so when I'm shopping I fall into this trap
40:31
where either I have to pick stuff that looks like I don't care and I'll never
40:35
look that good or I have to try to pick stuff that looks like I tried and risk
40:40
looking like a dumbass so I just I hate shot so anyway
40:43
the way 54 works is they've got your own personal stylist that goes through and
40:47
handpick stuff to send you every month you get $120 sticker price worth of
40:52
clothing for 60 bucks every month and if you use our code here bit. Le Linus FFC
40:59
and offer code Linus you get $15 off of your first package so the qu the quality
41:04
of the clothing is nice we've got lots of it around here and basically you
41:08
don't have to worry about it you enter a quick Sur you do a quick survey 60 seconds and you enter like your shoe
41:14
size and you kind of pick a couple things that you think are good I did it in 54 seconds or something like that and
41:19
then you are signed up and ready to rock so there you go guys uh what's up I'm
41:24
going to test it I'm going to see how fast fast you can do all right in the
41:27
meantime I actually have another giveaway so Squarespace is back did you
41:32
know that Squarespace is one of our longest running sponsors on the show I'm
41:36
not surprised our guys actually really like them yeah and we use them both
41:40
personally and for business so there you go Squarespace is awesome what do they
41:44
actually do for those of you who still don't know don't worry I'm not going to
41:47
play the song again uh what Squarespace does is they have flexible beautiful
41:52
websites that are easy to use and yet customizable all you got to do is sign
41:57
up for a twoe trial over on squarespace.com Linus preferably so I
42:02
get credit for the referral and the idea is that whether people are browsing your
42:06
site on a phone or on a PC or whatever kind of device tablet whatever it's
42:11
going to look good it's going to operate correctly which can be a huge problem
42:16
even with mostly TurnKey solutions that involve picking a theme and then you
42:20
know uploading your own content into it it's going to be mostly function well
42:24
not mostly functional it will be functional unlike the other ones that are mostly functional and it'll look
42:28
good doing it the performance is good even on things like our linusmediagroup
42:32
tocom site I find okay I mean this is cool I can operate my image slider with
42:36
my touchcreen stuff that I wouldn't have necessar how long did it take you 48
42:40
seconds and I sat on one question for a while and then remembered that I was
42:43
timed and then kept going so there you go it actually doesn't take very long
42:47
but you still have to enter your email and password so maybe that's your extra 12 seconds but anyway the point is we
42:52
love Squarespace we use them all the time they're inexpensive and we've even
42:55
stressed tested it we have taken down a lot of websites on the W show we took
43:00
down NOA once we did which was kind of funny cuz we love nocta just by saying
43:05
hey guys something something knock TOA I want I wanted to show them a product or
43:08
something I think and everyone went there the website went down we have
43:11
never been able to take down a Squarespace website with the w show
43:15
flooding it so as much as the plans are
43:18
affordable they can also scale depending on your needs your portfolio you can do
43:23
a Blog you can do a store lots and lot it will take naturally because it's a
43:28
website if you have zero visitors then you have 2,000 5,000 visitors it might
43:32
take like a second to catch up but we've never taken one down yes we've slowed it
43:37
down at the beginning and then it'll go like okay I'm good and then it'll be able to manage it we've never actually
43:41
taken one that was actually pretty funny because we that was a live demo where
43:44
I'd never tested it before and I was like let's see if we can take down minus
43:47
Medi group.com this will be a benchmark cuz I do all kinds of stuff my sponsors
43:51
hate on my show I think or have the potential to hate misquoting making them
43:56
agree to give even more people clothes stress testing them without them knowing
44:00
it's coming and what happened was it just kind of for about 5 Seconds 10
44:04
seconds it was like and then it was fine yeah all right
44:08
so the way to win two weeks ago we did a
44:11
Squarespace giveaway you guys had to tweet with hashtag Linus Squarespace so
44:15
I love it when you guys tweet me hashtag Linus Squarespace send me your trial
44:19
sites because you can get a twoe trial for free at any time and I said last
44:23
week in two weeks or two weeks ago whatever the point is is Brandon Olen

44:31
here's Brandon's website you can go ahead and you can check out the
44:35
different pictures of stuff I don't actually know what any of this stuff is
44:39
apparently some of it is like cutting hair and other stuff oh I guess it's
44:43
probably a photography yeah I was just going to say if he's a photographer he
44:46
takes really good photos yes photography if he's a barber shop so we got some
44:50
Street stuff here's like a market look
44:53
at the way it works and it actually works according oh what are these oh I
44:57
don't know if he set all this stuff oh okay cool so it just takes that and it rotates it I haven't actually played
45:02
around with all their different templates they have about 20 different templates depending on what kind of a
45:06
site you want and then they're all optimized to work in different ways but
45:09
there you go Brandon Olsen enjoy and
45:13
thank you very much for participating in our little giveaway here speaking of
45:17
giveaways I am aware that we're doing the G550 draw on the show today and we
45:23
will do it but it will be later it will be at the end end of the show so if you
45:27
guys want to peace out and come back at the end of the show that's fine if you
45:30
want to watch it in the archive later that's fine too it's not going to affect your chances to win or anything but I'm
45:35
just trying to say guys fine don't you don't think it's fine no I think they if
45:38
they want to watch in the archive I think they have to watch it twice they have to watch it twice you have to watch
45:43
it live right now and the hell are you talking about this is this is how the
45:48
internet works it's not they can't close this tab or else they'll break the
45:51
entirety of the internet all right so anyway guys thanks to our sponsors 54
45:55
and Squarespace for making making this show possible without sponsors we can't
45:58
make this show I mean we could but we'd have no money and then we wouldn't be
46:02
able to make the show anymore would be like in the crage wearing Paras because
46:06
it's so cool okay you should not say stuff like that because of how many
46:10
people have been like I really liked the show when you were in the garage with
46:14
parz it was we were legitimately uncomfortable not not
46:20
good it's like that actually sucked it did we were cold we weren't wearing them
46:25
because we were Canadian and making a joke yeah now it's the opposite now
46:29
we're like what the hell Canada why is it so hot I know it's so hot in this
46:33
room I'm not buying air conditioning though we're paying for the electricity
46:37
for air conditioning that is purchased for you that's right ridiculous anyways
46:42
I'm basically a terrible person all right so we've got our next
46:46
story here the LG G3
46:50
beat really why I mean when I when I
46:54
heard this look at this is ads for the Highlander shirt all over my
46:59
internet that's so funny okay does anyone else get those like is anyone
47:04
else I'm asking the oh no I've I've heard from people on The Forum and stuff
47:08
yeah yeah yeah that's so cool yeah and people on Twitch chat last week were
47:11
like yeah yeah it's all over my internet just like that's awesome so that's for
47:15
the Teespring campaign to get a commemorative Highlander shirt there's four days left um actually we upgraded
47:21
the hoodies is that done now yeah it's done so we didn't change the price of
47:25
the hoodies but they're now canvas something hoodies instead of Gilden
47:28
hoodies so I'm I'm picking up a hoodie when I at least one then cuz those those
47:33
those look a fair bit I love how it's an out of number that makes no sense yeah
47:37
346 sold out of 150 so it's teespring.com Highlander land if you
47:41
guys want to check that out we already hit the target so no pressure we are
47:45
definitely shipping them and I'm super excited about that anyway so the LG g3b
47:49
when I first heard this name I kind of went okay LG G3 beat so it's probably
47:53
like like a music optimized version of it cuz HTC did that where they had like
47:58
it was just a software layer or something um I thought it was
48:04
legitimately um like they're like oh yeah there's some phone that's better
48:07
than the LG G3 I didn't even think it was an LG phone you thought beat sounded
48:11
better oh3 beat oh cuz you know you know how
48:16
sometimes people title things they they there's like there's a news way of
48:20
titling something and you can say LG3 beat as in something this headline if
48:24
you miss the capitalized B it reads LG
48:27
G3 beat with 5 in HT display laser
48:30
autofocus camera goes official it's like what does that actually it sounded kind
48:34
of weird but I thought it was something had beat the LG3 and I started reading
48:38
it I was like oh what and cuz the the photo they look so similar yeah they
48:42
look I thought it might have just been a zoom out of the same phone or something
48:46
right I yeah did not catch on right away all right so here we go it's got a 5 in
48:50
HD so that is 720p IPS display and again back back to
48:55
the iPhone 6 I don't mind that I don't
48:59
think it's perfect but it's so much better than not 720p so whatever we were
49:05
using before something by 480 it's so much better than that that yeah that
49:10
distance or that difference sorry is extremely dress I'm okay with it they're
49:13
talking about the screen to body ratio although I think they mean percentage of
49:18
74.1% screen to the rest body so it's
49:22
very much about the screen experience just like the G3 three with its very
49:26
slim bezels the specs have been significantly downgraded so you still
49:30
get the laser focus camera but you don't get a 13 megapixel rear camera anymore
49:33
it's 8 megapixels now and the processing power is like in the Bas basically in
49:38
the toilet 1.2 GHz cortex A7 adreno 305
49:41
GPU only 1 gig of RAM compared to two or three depending on the storage capacity
49:46
of the bigger one and only 8 gigs of internal memory with a 2540 Mah hour
49:51
battery that is fortunately also still user removable it still has a micr SD
49:55
expansion slot and basically I guess what I have to say here is this either
50:02
validates HTC's strategy with the One
50:06
Mini and the One Mini 2 where they take that same high-end build quality and
50:11
look and that aluminum design and in order to cost it down enough to really
50:15
make any difference especially for someone buying on contract they put way
50:20
lower in specs because honestly those chips are not that much of the cost of a
50:25
phone like it it it's a factor but you just by downgrading the CPU like in a in
50:30
a computer for example downgrading the CPU and GPU alone you can reduce the
50:36
price of a PC by half yep depending on what you're looking at versus like a
50:40
very high NPC versus a low and one easy with a phone that's not the case we're
50:44
talking about maybe they shave you know 20 30 40 bucks off the bomb cost that's
50:50
not the difference between an $800 flagship phone and a399 phone so when
50:55
they keep that build quality in there they can't really drive the price down
50:58
that much that's why low-end phones are plastic and stuff so this either
51:02
validates HTC strategy of delivering much lower specs but still a really nice
51:06
feel or it's LG going down that same
51:09
disastrous path I guess yeah it remains to be seen you had a really interesting
51:13
note here though should jump into the skin performance yeah with the one the
51:18
one mini2 uh one of the articles I was looking at I think it was The Verge
51:22
article pointed out that the One Mini 2 is I I don't
51:25
okay whoever it was don't remember if it was The Verge I was reading up on it and they basically made an interesting point
51:30
they said the One Mini 2 is still a good
51:33
phone even older smartphone specs and we've gotten to that point now can still
51:38
deliver a really good experience but the issue that I worry
51:42
about here is that LG's skin is not as
51:46
lightweight as since or or just a stock
51:50
Google Experience like what you have on the Moto G which is also a very lows
51:54
speec phone that still performs okay my wife's been using one for the
51:57
last few months now and she does complain about it but it's not that it's
52:02
usable it's not like her old phone or anything like that so I worry based on
52:06
that LG skin is not that lightweight if performance is going to
52:10
be okay on the G3 beat that is pretty
52:14
interesting whoa that was a loud knock um that I I don't know the skin is
52:19
interesting but then at the same time they could have a lighter weight skin I
52:23
doubt it I doubt it they could cuz there certain things that are significantly
52:26
lower like in my G3 review I show multitasking on HTC versus LG and their
52:32
multitasking is really versatile like you can zoom in and zoom out and stuff
52:35
depending on how many things you want to see but it's heavy it takes a while to
52:39
load like it's it's something that I noticed before I did a side-by-side
52:43
comparison like that's never a good sign yeah it's a big difference yeah
52:48
interesting I don't I don't know it's something that they said in here though
52:51
is the smartphone manufacturers cannot ignore this growing segment of consumers
52:55
who want the best balance of looks features performance and of course price
52:59
um I like how he says that while his company is jumping on that bandwagon at
53:04
the same time basically we cannot ignore
53:07
this growing segment of consumers yes either way it's it's I
53:12
think I think they're right it's getting to the point where a lot of people don't
53:15
need the flagship phones for a while there you basically needed to get a
53:19
flagship phone or else you're getting a piece of crap that's true but the issue
53:23
is that that's not even true anymore so now consumers are being forced to choose
53:27
between something with okay build quality something like a Nexus 5 but
53:32
bleeding edge specs versus something that's going to have LG G3 or HTC1 type
53:38
aluminum backing like that kind of stuff that really does cost a lot of money and
53:42
much much lower end specifications I mean the killer for me is the 8 gigs of
53:47
onboard storage I can live with 16 gigs as long
53:51
as I have SD expansion yeah yeah a lot
53:54
of apps are not going to want to live off that SD card yeah and even and yeah
53:58
exactly and games are getting bigger and bigger all the time on Android y I mean
54:02
there's that rumor on the street about
54:06
uh you know some Android gaming device
54:09
that may or may not be surfacing at some point in the near future I I I can't say
54:13
anything because um when I don't know
54:17
anything I can speculate uh so anyway
54:20
something that may or may not be coming at some point um I mean andro is a valid
54:25
gaming platform you look at I I do most of my gaming on Android even if I'm
54:30
using gamestream I was just going to say no not on not Android games yeah but
54:33
what needs to happen is game developers need to get on board the whole Android
54:37
thing but we need devices that are really delivering a great Android gaming
54:41
experience and it's that whole chicken and egg thing speaking of chicken and
54:44
egg things Mozilla is attempting to improve jpeg how you like that I like
54:49
that that was a very interesting segue but I like what they're doing here a lot
54:53
because um this is so much better than
54:56
Google's approach it is so much better than Google's approach it makes so much
54:59
more sense because Google's promoting something that is only kind of kind of
55:04
we should say what Mozilla is doing first then we'll then we'll like slam
55:08
Google for being dumb so what's Mozilla doing Mozilla is making a new
55:12
compression library for jpeg so where is it called Moz jpeg 2.0 Moz jpeg 2.0
55:19
which will work for when you're compiling jpegs but then it's read in
55:24
the exact same way so everything that reads jpegs right now can read it just
55:27
totally fine it'll take a slightly longer amount of time to create that
55:32
JPEG but then reading it is faster so
55:36
that's awesome because it takes like no time to create one right now at all so
55:42
so should be fine if it takes ever so slightly longer than basically
55:46
non-existent I think it's okay and if it's making uh where is it 30% smaller
55:51
or something I think to 15% smaller
55:54
which isn't as good as Chrome uh approach but it actually works with
55:57
everything yeah which is pretty important and I mean making images
56:01
smaller on the web isn't the end of the world these days anymore like it used to
56:05
be that loading images was the bulk of
56:09
you know web traffic where not video yes
56:12
and but at the same time we're running into things like uh imer imager whatever
56:17
you want to say where instead of having a few images on the website and that
56:20
being an issue now it's the whole website is just images so that I can
56:24
actually take a little so even another let's take the average even another 10%
56:28
faster another 10% less bandwidth used by those images is all going to be
56:33
really positive stuff this can really help people that are in say Australia
56:36
that have terrible craptastic internet or other random areas around the world
56:40
like We complain about our internet all the time then mods that I have in the
56:45
mod chat post a screenshot of their speed speed test and I'm just like sad
56:50
face my internet is Godlike compared to yours so yeah so by comparison Google's
56:56
been pushing their uh webp which is a still image derivative of their web M
57:01
Cod codec which actually is better I
57:04
mean technically it's better we looking at up to 30% smaller images with webp
57:09
but the problem and Facebook did an experiment Facebook the kings of
57:13
experimenting with things just randomly did an experiment where they started
57:17
serving up pages with webp and the problem was that no browsers other than
57:22
Chrome or Opera supported it and then number two is that a lot of people use
57:28
Facebook as cloud storage so they actually upload their photos because
57:31
they don't care about Pixel Perfect quality being preserved forever so
57:35
they're just uploading their photos to Facebook and then downloading them as they need them they were downloading
57:39
these webp photos and none of their local file viewers were able to look at
57:43
them that's a big issue in my opinion because I don't necessarily use Facebook
57:48
as web photo storage I never have but I
57:51
have downloaded images off Facebook when I'm like say I need a new Twitter banner
57:56
and the Facebook thing is really wide so
57:59
like my brother's Facebook thing or my mom's Facebook thing if she wants a
58:04
Twitter banner I can be like yeah just go to your Facebook one right click on
58:07
it view image save image upload it again to Twitter and it's probably
58:11
fine considering so many different websites are moving to this like wide
58:15
big banner kind of style you can just bounce them across each other and you
58:19
can do that from any location if you have them on one of those services so
58:23
being unable to download them again is kind of dumb so I mean maybe a long time
58:29
in the future but you look at how long it takes to really move the dial on a
58:33
web standard I mean flash is still here
58:37
why it's still causing browser crashes
58:40
for me on a regular basis remember when I was like uh wow maila is screwing up
58:44
right now and then I was like wow no it's not I'm just at like 98% or 95% RAM
58:49
usage uh a gig of that was Flash it's like w
58:56
really why go away I have like one
59:00
YouTube video open what are you doing yeah so I mean I I I see something
59:06
like the jpeg improvements as a much more feasible way to actually achieve
59:10
something versus so Milla is trying to achieve something real and Google's
59:15
trying to achieve something that will hopefully be like in the future maybe or
59:20
something maybe so I'm sure they could make photo viewer work with webp
59:25
speaking of things that right now are uh
59:29
right now are not really a thing but could be really important in the future
59:33
project see another segue bam got Segways Project Ara Dev board ships
59:39
later this month so the sign up is actually closed now uh yesterday was the
59:44
last opportunity to sign up and Google is evaluating who gets the equipment
59:49
based on how interesting their idea is
59:52
as well as uh something else so basically they're actually going through
59:55
all these submissions but for those of you who need a refresher Project Ara is
59:59
the modular smartphone concept now this is a concept image right here of like
60:04
remember phone blocks so this is the the real version of that so this concept
60:08
image right here shows backings of something that looks like a fablet with
60:12
these modules that plug into it and are going to communicate via um a
60:16
standardized interface so that whatever type of module you're plugging in
60:20
they'll all be able to communicate with each other and they'll all be able to communicate ultimately with you here's a
60:25
smaller one here's some just random modules well I mean this is the state
60:29
it's in now um so we're not there yet
60:34
but but they'll be shipping the second
60:37
round of Hardware sometime in the fall I
60:40
believe yes first round is in first
60:44
round is soon and then second Hardware release with multiple application
60:47
processors will be in the fall right now it's not even close to ready so this is
60:51
very much like plug things in and see if they work stage but it shows that they
60:56
are still working on the project they are still serious about this and I mean
61:01
okay initially what I said about this was it's not going to make sense for
61:05
anything but the low end by the time it actually sees the
61:11
light of day I might be totally wrong
61:14
because we're getting to the point where like the spec bumps don't feel them as
61:18
much we're getting to the point where we can continue to miniaturize things but a
61:21
phone is largely fast enough for most of the things you're going want to do with
61:24
it today which I mean if we're talking about walking around with a phone in 3D
61:29
mapping an environment yeah and stuff like gaming is always going to get
61:32
harder but when when you talk about it's fast enough to do things you want to do
61:35
today a lot of people when you reference that is calling texting um very basic
61:41
kind of text applications and photo applications like Facebook um Twitter
61:45
Instagram that kind of stuff so when I said basic I I think I had the wrong
61:50
Concept in my mind I was thinking basic today basic
61:55
whereas basic by then will probably be this basic high-end today basic and so
62:02
I'm I'm a lot more excited about it especially if we see Technologies like
62:05
um that uh that second that however many seconds it was they could charge a
62:09
Galaxy S4 like if we see improvements in charging technology improvements in
62:14
Battery Technology to the point where you can make something that isn't that
62:17
bulky and really is legitimately modular
62:21
that isn't so slow that it's only usable for basic calling and texting fun
62:25
I'm a lot more excited about it now than I was before so right now it's running
62:29
on a fork of Android like it doesn't even run on regular Android because they
62:33
had to Frankenstein it to allow hot swapping of components I mean that's the
62:37
kind of thing guys your phone freaks out if you unplug a Micro SD card
62:42
unexpectedly it's like yo dog please don't do that um whereas if we're
62:46
talking about unplugging your camera I mean the amount of app dependencies on
62:51
any piece of Hardware like a camera I mean you install any app it goes this
62:55
app has access to this this this this this this this you start pulling out
62:58
your GPS module in the middle of right
63:01
it's going to be like there's a lot of stuff that needs
63:04
to be figured out before this really happens but I'm a lot more excited about it than I was before speaking of things
63:09
that are designed to generate hype Sony and Microsoft are talking about Early
63:14
Access game sales on consoles now
63:18
neither of them is announcing that
63:21
they're doing it now that's not what's happening right now what they've
63:25
basically said is look we're having serious internal discussions about this
63:30
we've seen what a big deal this has been on the PC with steam allowing games to
63:36
allow early allow players to pay for early access to them but I think they
63:41
recognize like hopefully everyone recognizes that there are still some
63:45
serious problems with this model
63:50
so the benefits are obvious I guess the
63:53
developer gets feedback back I mean even
63:56
EA is recognizing the benefits okay hold on let's one step back you look at Star
64:01
Citizen where they're being extremely open about the development process
64:05
here's the like roadblock we're stuck with right now here's the Milestone that
64:10
unfortunately we keep not hitting because we're actually sharing the
64:13
internal targets with you guys instead of you know padding it the way that it
64:18
game developer would normally do okay so there's there's that completely like
64:22
crowdfunded project and then crowd interactive development process then
64:27
there's the next step there's what EA finally has opened their eyes to what
64:31
they did with the Battlefield Hardline Beta where they went okay we want people
64:35
to play this game we want to know that it works properly before we ask for
64:40
people's money then there's what then
64:44
there's Early Access and so the benefits
64:47
of developers getting feedback before they release a game are great especially
64:51
especially on the PC where so many gamebreaking buttons can have to do with
64:55
obscure Hardware configurations but the problem is asking
64:59
for people to pay for beta software paying for Early Access is a
65:06
big problem to me it used to be so cool
65:09
yes like I used to like when when you had to sign up for a beta it was like this huge resume process and one of the
65:15
sections which was always extremely important was what games have you done
65:18
betas for before yeah and like how engaged are you in betas and like all
65:22
this kind of stuff and it was a big deal and if you got into a beta for something like it was a it was cool you know like
65:29
you were a cool dude yeah and people were like oh holy crap you've baed for
65:32
all these different games and it's like yeah yeah and you you learn like how to
65:36
test things and it was actually kind of interesting there was one point in time
65:39
where beta testing games could have gone on a
65:42
resume right like the fact that you were accepted into all these different betas
65:46
could could have gone on a resume now you buy into it like
65:52
what what what what what what we we took that hype of like yeah I got into a beta
65:57
this is super cool and turned it into it's just generally cool to be into
66:02
betas which made it so that betas weren't betas anymore which made it so
66:06
that Gmail beta yeah Gmail with Minecraft Beta where things last forever
66:11
and it makes no sense and then they started charging you for it and it
66:14
devalues the beta word like it's it's taken the meaning out of the beta word
66:18
beta used to mean it's not finished now beta seems to mean it's well it's mostly
66:23
finished we're just not quite ready to call it finished we're we're getting
66:27
we're done but we're getting your feedback and we're going to tweak things so that when we release it everyone sees
66:32
it as being and the problem with that actually the problem with that with
66:35
beta's working too well is it changes
66:39
the the customers perception of what a beta is and it changes their
66:42
expectations of what a beta is so all of a sudden they kind of expect a beta to
66:47
be mostly there like a beta sure beta software Works no big deal I'll run beta
66:51
software on my PC all day long and then then developers recognize this change in
66:56
perception and go oh well why don't we just charge them for it then and I mean
67:00
valve has warnings like look if you buy into Early Access you should buy it
67:04
because you're really excited about the title or something I forget the wording exactly but they basically go look they
67:09
might not ever get finished but why is that acceptable yeah and I mean okay
67:14
okay okay why is it acceptable yeah but then the the flip side of that is is it
67:18
really any different from what we have today where the development process is
67:21
mostly closed they released the game and you pay for it and it wasn't done so
67:28
basically we're just giving them our money at the same point in the
67:31
development cycle we're just calling it something different that that's why I
67:35
often don't buy release games anymore I used to be all about buying release
67:38
games and pre-ordering stuff I know that sounds weird but honestly at one point
67:41
in time that was fine we need to do a shirt that's like I paid for this and
67:46
then this just needs to like Trail off
67:49
that's actually not a bad yeah okay guys let us know maybe we'll do another
67:53
Teespring C campaign instead of throwing up on buy like the the oh you could oh
67:59
what if you did like a release and I I
68:03
paid for this and have part at the end a different color and then have like an
68:07
index and have it be like release and
68:12
DLC yeah we got we got to come up with something let us know in twitch chat if
68:15
you need us to do a if you need us to do a beta shirt because I think that would
68:19
be pretty freaking awesome I funded this beta I funded this beta
68:27
so said Luke's shirts are getting smaller and smaller no this shirt has just consistently been small
68:32
yeah cuz you're bigger than well you've
68:36
been kind of getting kind of jacked lately so there's that um okay I don't
68:40
think there's anything else I had to say on the beta thing I think the punchline was what it was it was is anything
68:45
really changing if we just get people to pay for Betas no not really nope cuz
68:50
it's going to be broken or it's going to be broken speaking of things never
68:53
changing it's like the isps want us to keep
68:56
having negative things to say about them this is brutal it's on the register guys
69:02
you have to listen to this at some point
69:05
you know what's the funny thing about it is Comcast is backpedaling and saying oh
69:10
we're very upset that the customer was treated in this manner this is a
69:14
recording of about an 8 minute customer support call where someone tried to call
69:18
in and cancel their service and they're like oh we're really embarrassed about
69:22
this they've said nothing about discipl the employee because as listening to the
69:27
recording I am sure the employee was
69:30
100% doing everything right they were
69:33
probably instructed to work that way they were probably instructed to work in
69:36
exactly this way because the employee doesn't tell the customer he doesn't
69:41
call the customer an or something like the employee is polite
69:46
sort of throughout the whole thing other than talking over the customer and
69:50
repetitively asking the same stupid questions like like well you know if our
69:55
if our service is superior and faster are you saying that you'd like to have an inferior service and then when the
70:00
guy just tries to say like no I just want to cancel the service I don't have
70:04
to answer this question well what so then you're saying you want an inferior
70:07
service our competitor can't give you what we give you and he kind of goes
70:10
okay sure I want an inferior service and and and the customer service the CSR is
70:15
like oh well why would you want an inferior service I mean look listen to
70:19
what you're saying like like you know
70:22
please and thank you are all in there but talking over the customer in this
70:26
disrespectful manner is not cool no but
70:30
that's I'm certain what they were instructed to do I don't like RPS but I
70:35
don't think it would have been that bad they'll push you yeah I've cancel
70:38
service with RPS in our Telos it's nothing like that no no they'll push you
70:42
they'll ask you why but if you're like just I just I just don't want it I just don't want it they'll be like oh okay
70:47
really aggressive and they'll cancel it and just the like one of the highest
70:51
pressure sales techniques that I've ever encountered
70:54
and uh yeah so like Shaw okay Shaw
70:57
called me yeah cuz I used to have Shaw and then where I'm living now I the
71:02
landlord has internet already so they're like oh you cancel a cha was there like
71:07
a reason do you not like it do you have too many outages like what why did you
71:10
cancel Shaw I was like oh I moved somewhere and they have it already like
71:13
oh so you don't want it anymore I was like well I moved somewhere and I have it already I have it already like it I'm
71:18
using it I'm just not paying for it because the the person that owns the
71:22
building is already paying for it they're like oh okay hopefully you use
71:25
this in the future I was like yep okay bye like it was really not a big deal
71:30
they didn't try to push and be like no you have to like get your own blah blah
71:33
blah blah blah which I don't know but whatever it it felt just like the worst
71:39
thing about you know trying to shop for a car or trying to shop for insurance or
71:44
like those kinds of things it felt like I had a Primerica presentation in my
71:48
kitchen when I was listening to this
71:52
thing that's which I did recently long story why they were there but I I I'll
71:58
have to tell you offline cuz yeah OU
72:02
yeah it was really annoying I've lost a couple friends to that yeah not like I I
72:06
went to a presentation I've gone to one as well but I got tricked into going to one no I
72:11
knew where I was going I didn't I had no idea I was uh I had a weird idea that it
72:15
might have been something to do with that but I had no idea yeah I was fresh out of high school and someone was like
72:19
blah blah blah you know there's this thing and fresh out of high school sounds right I hadn't got I hadn't
72:24
caught on to the whole if they won't if they refuse to tell you what you're
72:28
selling then you probably shouldn't be selling it yet so they were just like no
72:33
no no we can't tell you anything you have to just come with the presentation so I kind of sat through the presentation I kind of went okay it's
72:37
PID scheme and then that was about the end of that I got my I I contacted a
72:42
friend that I hadn't talked to since high school and I was like we should hang out sometime and they're like yeah
72:46
you should come to like my work we're having a a work thing and we're allowed
72:50
to bring plus ones we're we're encouraged to bring plus ones like it's
72:54
it's good I should be bringing people I'm like okay sure and then day up they're
72:59
like oh yeah like wear something nice like it's fairly fairly formal I was
73:02
like okay so that's when I had that like one red and black suit you remember that
73:07
so I put that on which is like super way over the top oh yeah like way over the
73:11
top because it's the only thing I have and I show up and like I'm Miss they've
73:15
they haven't told me what they do I just and I've asked them multiple times what
73:19
it's about all this kind of stuff and I I show up and then I'm like oh this is
73:23
your work this is weird it's in like a storage unit
73:27
complex this is really odd which ironically isn't as bad as your old
73:32
office in my house
73:36
Gage um but yeah and then I sit down and
73:39
I realized that it's not like just some work the there's there's the reception
73:43
desk and then there's the like presentation room there's no working
73:47
area and I'm like oh God I'll just sit through this and then go home yeah yeah
73:53
um okay so SanDisk apparently is reporting that their SSD sales have
73:59
soared um that in that alone isn't
74:02
really that newsworthy there's an article on the register so bloop bloop
74:05
there's the one um that to me is is the
74:09
huge thing about it but what is interesting to me about it is the way
74:13
that we're finally seeing capacities take another jump SanDisk is talking
74:17
about 4 terabyte and 2 terabyte like terabyte class multi-terabyte class ssds
74:22
that might be very very expensive right now but prices are continuing to fall
74:27
they're talking about how their volumes are increasing so their actual revenues
74:31
are up even though profits are not really sort of increasing in the same
74:35
manner so we're seeing it become commod sized we're seeing it become more
74:39
affordable so that's the whole point of this is it's getting more affordable
74:43
it's really really exciting ssds are the
74:47
maybe they're not the future but they're at least the immediate sort of
74:51
transitional phase between hard drives and whatever the future ends up being
74:56
and that's pretty much all that I have to say about that next big oh this is
75:01
this is this really sucks oh Microsoft
75:04
cutting or cut 18,000 jobs which is
75:10
14% of their Global Workforce holy crap
75:14
I mean that's basically like me cutting one
75:18
employee no not to make light of the situation that is absolutely in I mean I
75:24
understand so this was originally posted on the for by jle and the original
75:28
articles from the BBC there's a number of sources on it I understand um you
75:33
know right sizing or streamlining or or
75:38
whatever the case may be but I just find it interesting that they kind of
75:42
shoveled a whole bunch of it under the Nokia thing so they're like yeah we're
75:47
getting rid of people because of the Nokia merger actually a lot of other
75:50
people as well yeah so I I guess that's
75:54
really that's really all there is to say about it so they um they're kind it's
75:59
18,000 over the next year uh so it's not all like everyone's job is gone today
76:04
the mass majority of it is going to be over the next six months though but it's one of those things where it's easy for
76:08
us to kind of see these kinds of job cuts and go oh okay well you know they
76:12
they did this or they did that but it's a lot harder to look at it and go okay well someone we know and like and
76:17
respect uh lost their job so uh Barnacle
76:21
is one of our fellow YouTubers this was posted by The Double Y gamer on the
76:24
Forum just a series of tweets from him kind of going holy cow I got blindsided
76:30
by this um didn't expect this at all but Barnacles was one of the one of the
76:35
casualties in Microsoft cutting all these jobs so you should definitely
76:38
check him out on YouTube Barnacles one numerical one on YouTube or if you just
76:44
search for Barnacles that should be a secondary account then Barnacle
76:47
numerical one numerical one no if you
76:51
had a secondary account it should be Barn too n that's stupid that's the
76:55
stupidest thing you've said today stupidest isn't even a word which some
77:00
people will go no the person calling something the stupidest thing ever is
77:03
stupid because they're using not even a word but actually I'm saying it very
77:07
intentionally to emphasize how stupid it is it's so stupid it shouldn't even be
77:12
real there done that was very well put
77:16
uh the millennium bug returns so this is this is pretty funny I can't believe
77:21
this posted on the Forum by but this is this is great theel service
77:26
system mistaken s notices to more than 14,000 psyl men born between 1893 and
77:32
1897 ordering them to register for the nation's military draft and warning that
77:37
a failure to do so is punishable by a fine and imprisonment what they actually
77:41
meant was uh 1993 to 1997 so uh y 2K
77:47
strikes again oh like I can't even
77:50
believe I love how they're like yeah the they accepted that it was wrong and they
77:54
just told people just to ignore it if it shows up I'm like that's actually going
77:58
to be possibly traumatic for certain people yeah I would think so yeah like
78:01
that's going to be not good at
78:06
all cuz I I wouldn't even be surprised
78:09
if there's people in that group that possibly passed away in
78:13
Duty that are now getting drafted yeah I
78:17
mean it's it's and like their spouses might still be alive or something it's
78:20
super not cool I mean the error occurred because the state uses a twood digigit
78:24
code to indicate um to indicate the date
78:27
and digital systems go back far enough that those people were alive when this
78:32
code was implemented like all this stuff I I I still I don't understand I I still
78:36
see stuff that uses two-digit date codes
78:39
and it's like haven't we figured out that this is a problem yet we all just
78:42
need to stop doing this use real dates
78:46
we have really big storage now it's okay it's fine the extra two characters take
78:51
the two more characters probably fine it'll be okay speaking of two characters
78:55
the last of us have remastered on the
78:58
PS4 is going to allow you to lock the
79:02
frame rate at 30fps now to be clear by
79:06
default it will run at 1080 60p and I am
79:09
definitely a huge advocate for consoles
79:13
giving the user the option to control
79:16
the graphical Fidelity settings so that they can choose whether they want you
79:21
know more particles to kick around on the floor or whether they prefer to run
79:24
at a more consistent frame rate or at a higher resolution or whatever else the
79:28
case may be but the one concern that
79:31
this brings up so this was posted by dri W in the Forum the one concern that this
79:36
raises for me is if you're at
79:42
60fps and they're acknowledging that and
79:45
they're there they're giving you the option to lock at 30fps because there is no cinematic gameplay reason to play a
79:50
game at 30 FPS there that put put that out of your mind if they're giving us
79:54
that option are they basically saying well it could be dipping below 60 FPS
79:58
often enough that it might bother some people to the point where they'd rather play at a lower frame rate I I rebuttal
80:04
this a little bit um by saying that the one of the lead developers was talking
80:08
about how amazing it was to play it in 60 FPS so I I don't really think it's
80:13
going to be that big of an issue it could be but then I've always been one of those deat tastic people who
80:17
basically dials in my graphic settings based on worst case scenario yep and and
80:22
people people will often make this argument well you don't need to run your
80:25
game at 95 frames per second because your monitor only Sports 60 frames per
80:29
second that's not really the point the point is those times when it dips are
80:35
usually the times when a bunch of dudes jump out at you that's how it works when
80:40
there's more objects on screen that's when your frame rate dips so that's why
80:43
it's important to run at an average frame rate of 100 FPS so that when
80:48
gets real not and everything runs at 60
80:52
even though like never dips below so that's that's why in Star seon when
80:55
you're staring at the floor you can get like 150 and if you look up in a deluxe
80:58
hanger that has a bot ton of ships in it you can go down to like 10 or 15 like it
81:04
can be a lot harder to run different parts of different games and g-sync will
81:07
alleviate this quite a lot more than I expected 40 FPS looks pretty good on a
81:13
g-sync monitor when you're not dealing with any stuttering or tearing yeah but
81:17
well maybe 4 yeah 40 might be a little bit on the low side 45 looked pretty
81:20
good though so it's still yeah yeah it's interesting and then
81:27
the yeah let's not what just no carries
81:31
and did you we rejected the Tesla Model 3 that's exciting we talked about it
81:35
last week oh did we yeah yeah but we called it the model e oh so we can talk
81:39
about that yeah so we can talk about how Elon Musk is like so yeah Ford like um
81:45
ruined our whole plan to have the sex lineup of cars with the model S the
81:50
model e and the model X by threatening a lawsuit over the model e naming or
81:55
something so we're calling it The Three so is like close enough he so funny I
82:00
think he found some way to still make it work or something or was it yeah the S
82:05
S3 which is three eyes and then an
82:09
X yeah I don't know what a funny guy I
82:12
mean who does that cuz you you can't
82:15
someone that smart who's paying that much attention to everything there's no
82:19
way he didn't know that the letters weren't going to spell sex mhm
82:23
awesome guaranteed I love it I think he's hilarious me too I like musk a lot
82:28
he's kind of awesome I think that's pretty much it from my side there's
82:32
other stuff but it's just yeah I don't know none of it seems that exciting
82:38
so totally not great totally not a Dr
82:41
for the laptop oh that's okay the laptop
82:45
that's like trying really hard to keep
82:48
itself alive I may replace this laptop
82:51
with what 4 gig of RAM isn't enough and you can't upgrade I might just get a new
82:55
no no solder on I might just get a new Gen X ps12 speaking about solder on what
83:01
no nothing soldered onto that laptop no
83:04
I didn't mean that I meant the the blade the blade that's why oh that's why I'm
83:09
no I already shipped the blade back yeah I was tempted to just not ship it back
83:13
and just be like what are you going to do what are they going to do stop seing
83:17
me like review samples no what they could have done was they could have
83:20
turned that into like an advertising C it's like our laptop is so good that
83:26
this guy won't send it back but but if they publicized what I did then they'd
83:31
be opening up the floodgates for other reviewers to just not send things back
83:35
back yeah or also saying they could send like the razor SWAT
83:39
crew not real SWAT could show up with
83:42
like water guns that would and raid the house that would actually be kind of
83:46
hilarious except it could cause real problems because like yeah I yeah that
83:53
would that would I mean fake swatting is never funny even if they're armed with
83:57
water guns so I would definitely see if you call the head like if if they called
84:02
the head and like informed the police and like it was set up and we probably
84:05
knew they would have to inform us they would it would basically a whole thing
84:09
would just have to be completely everyone would have to know it would have to be like realistic looking SWAT
84:14
uniforms with like bright yellow and orange water guns so everyone knows it's
84:18
fake yeah but then you're it's not even that funny any okay anyway so speaking
84:24
of things that aren't that funny anymore making you guys wait any longer for the
84:28
drawing of the signed Rog G550 JK gaming
84:33
notebook so it's signed by all the Highlander video personalities that were
84:37
the tops of me Logan Kane Luke um Austin
84:42
Paul and Kyle all signed the bottom of this unit and it can be yours so we are
84:48
going to draw it live random.org so we have 6111 pages
84:53
will oh okay whatever we draw live here guys if we find that your entry wasn't
84:58
valid so we go back and make sure that your entry was valid I'll be inspecting
85:01
accounts I'll be inspecting he'll be digging don't tell them what you're inspecting because we don't want them to
85:06
know what we're looking for tell them how oh okay basically we have a process
85:11
you won't get away with it so uh we may do a redraw stay tuned on Twitter if the
85:15
original winner ends up not being valid but here we go guys drum roll so the way
85:19
that we do it is first we draw a random
85:23
page on random.org then we draw a random
85:27
poster on said random page so it's I think it's 20 post per page yep 20 posts
85:32
per page here we
85:35
go page 341 up give give everyone like a
85:39
little bit of time so they can figure out if they're on page 341 sure so we
85:43
can make everyone super anxious okay I'm just terrorizing everybody right now
85:48
okay all right we will do that okay so it could be Tony Tang 66 pinnon fery
85:54
faran Cameron Schultz legol
85:57
ladex slonski oh won't be
86:02
slunky sorry dude uh Mr Mosh Pit 101

86:25
34206 there is so many Joe's yeah so
86:29
many all the Jo incredible amount of Joe's okay so now we will go from 1 to
86:42
20 nine okay so let's let's count them
86:46
one two three four five 6 78 nine do you
86:52
double count the guy that was in there twice I guess we already picked yeah
86:56
because we're picking a random one based on post count then we're going to valid 20 on a page good point so that that way
87:01
the double entries don't affect anyone else's chance to win yeah yeah yeah so
87:05
there it is you won good
87:09
job yeah so I'll send a PM through the Forum which is how our giveaways work
87:15
all right congratulations what are we going to do if that person doesn't respond to respond to what the PM on the
87:20
for uh then we'll redraw it okay yeah

the giveaway is for lonus TAC tips
87:47
YouTube viewers we are using the Forum
87:50
as a mechanism for hosting the the giveaway someone who has one post on the
87:55
Forum could be a longtime loyal viewer
88:00
of our videos even a big commenter on the YouTube instead of on Facebook yeah
88:04
so just because they don't post a lot on lists.com doesn't mean they're not a
88:08
member of our community so let's try not to be all butur about that and if
88:13
they're not logging on to the community that much you have a higher chance that they won't answer the PM and that
88:16
there's going to be a redraw that's right so we did think of this all right
88:20
peace out guys thanks for watching we'll see you again same bat Time same bat
