yes and we're live in theory maybe I
0:05
will definitely check this time because we thought we were live last week and we
0:09
straight up were not live at all so uh
0:14
let's go ahead and fire up twitch here and make sure everything this laptop is
0:18
full of your scrapyard Wars crap oh
0:22
that's cuz I wasn't also looking at it that I was specifically looking at it
0:26
you were like oh I was also looking at yeah no I wasn't this is the laptop you
0:29
were using yeah this is why I love you were you
0:33
also looking at this graphics card yeah are you sure yeah okay how you wouldn't
0:37
sell it to me for $20 $20 for
0:41
a460 you're an
0:44
idiot or more more specifically the guy
0:47
you were trying to buy it from is not an idiot I no I think I said 25 and then he
0:53
was like no 30 and I was like I can't do it 30 bucks for a 460 is pretty good I
1:00
know like that's just you was like what could you even do with that I was like a
1:04
lot actually you could fairly easily play Battlefield 3 yeah yeah totally no
1:10
the 460 is not a terrible card all right so we have quite a show for you guys we
1:15
do have topics but we're probably also going to be teasing the crap out of
1:22
scrapyard the Reckoning the scrapping
1:25
the scrapping that's actually pretty funny I
1:31
I'll be right back I don't think that was me I can't take claim for that I
1:35
think I read that on Twitter that might have been edel or something I think I
1:38
stole that from
1:41
someone the
1:44
scraping I don't know where he went I guess I can do the call outs we've got
1:48
Google IO happened so they were showing off stuff like things that we'll talk
1:53
about later also 980 TI is officially launching at computex potentially and
1:58
some star s assets leaked and the internet went quite crazy and 2K is
2:03
teasing a new game that could potentially be a new Bioshock which is
2:08
cool because I've been benching Bioshock for years it's official scrapyard Wars 2
2:12
the scrap inning nice I don't know whose idea it was but I ripped that off
2:18
hardcore I don't No One Believes it's me so it doesn't matter yeah um what else
2:23
we got I read a bunch of those types of things on Twitter so I think I took it
2:27
from someone but I'm not sure are we ready to roll the intro we
2:31
areop hey it worked oh did you reinstall
2:35
it uh no I didn't I don't know why it's magic it's Christmas
2:40
miracle I love Christmas this show is like my
2:45
Christmas except my Christmas comes every Friday at 4:30 p.m. you know
2:49
what's funny is people have finally stopped asking me what time the wano
2:53
comes on that's an interesting point yeah I
2:57
haven't had anyone ask me in Forever our sponsors Dollar Shave Club Mass drop
3:04
and circle
3:09
alt Squarespace right I see what you did
3:13
there that was what I meant to say but
3:17
no no indeed rectangle
3:20
shift it's a rectangle oh
3:25
oh jeez guys it can you turn your
3:28
speakers off why is this computer lagging so hardcore I'm on it I'm on it
3:32
oh okay um it has been quite the
3:36
freaking week so scrapyard Wars 2 the
3:40
scrap ining was scheduled from
3:44
Two for the first two and 1 half days to
3:47
be like build off and then the third
3:50
like the rest of the third day to be um
3:53
like the judging period okay we ended up
3:57
starting on Monday because we realized we had some crap to do later in the week
4:01
which by the way never got done because
4:04
it took the entire week up until about 2
4:07
o00 today all day every day for
4:11
scrapyard Wars 2 I have no idea how many
4:14
parts it'll be uh the guidance I gave Ed on the editing side editing cuz he I'm
4:21
on fire today um the guidance I gave Ed on the editing side is I don't want
4:25
episodes that are longer than if I tell him 14 minutes I'm going to end up with
4:29
16 and what I actually want is 15 so like
4:33
this is this is this the way most employer
4:36
employee relationships work I have to
4:39
say what I want knowing that I'm not going to get it but I might get something closer to what
4:45
I if we want you somewhere at a certain time we tell you about half an hour
4:49
before we actually want you there right if it's like oh lonus needs to be doing
4:53
this at 4:30 we be like hey lonus you have to be doing this at 4: right that
4:59
makes sense so I have no idea how many
5:02
parts it's going to be it depends on how many amazing moments there are and I can
5:07
tell you having not tagged along for his
5:10
side there's already enough amazing
5:13
moments for a heck of a lot of video yeah um but I have to say this now if
5:20
you guys don't appreciate it when we do
5:24
stuff that's a little cringe don't watch it don't watch it
5:28
yeah cuz it's it's going to be really
5:31
entertaining content but it's going to be do as we
5:36
say not as we do because there's a lot of not as we do at least in my side I'm
5:43
trying to not spoil things yeah my side too should we tell them that the the the
5:47
challenge I mean that only spoils the first like 20 seconds of the first part
5:54
realistically totally up to you what do you think
6:01
I'm conflicted cuz cuz it might make people not bother watch but then it
6:04
might also make people want to watch more oh I think it'll make people want to watch then let's do it yeah okay so
6:10
the first part is coming out on vessel
6:13
uh Saturday night before you keep going I'm getting like Phantom chest mic now
6:17
I'm still wearing mine oh wow like I can feel it but it's not there we've been
6:21
wearing lav mics for the entire week
6:25
okay so part one is coming out on vessel
6:28
Saturday night midnight Pacific so Sunday morning like the very so so the
6:34
border between Saturday and Sunday Pacific time and the theme
6:40
is they have to be water cooled they may not okay give the do you
6:45
want to give maybe don't give the dollar break yeah sure we can save the budgets
6:49
they have to be liquid cooled they may
6:52
not use any off-the-shelf PC liquid
6:56
cooling components and I don't mean buying them at a store I mean you cannot
7:02
use something that's intended for PC water cooling so like you couldn't mount
7:07
a computer fan on a radiator because then that's using that fan to cool the
7:13
radiator so
7:17
enjoy cuz like if you know what you know
7:21
about how handy Luc and I are with tools
7:24
then you and like there's questionable
7:28
availability of certain tools yep yep it wasn't clear going into the
7:32
competition if we were allowed to buy tools if that counted against our budget
7:37
so we definitely had some uh we
7:40
definitely had some things um so yeah
7:43
that's coming out on vessel uh basically in about uh 36 hours and then coming out
7:49
on YouTube the following week and then the parts will be weekly releases so
7:55
there will be no like oh this series disappears after you know
8:00
Home Room water cooling Like Home Room water cooling so every Saturday y it's
8:05
shot it's in editing and I have a lot of people ask why does it take a week in
8:10
between because of editing it takes a
8:13
week to edit we have all the footage Ed sits for an entire week and does nothing
8:18
but edit scrapyard Wars and that episode
8:22
that you guys see is a week's worth of one person's work and a lot of people
8:25
don't understand how much work it is to edit something like scrapyard think
8:29
about like almost 8 hours of footage times two for one day of scrapyard Wars
8:35
just just scrubbing through that footage alone not even putting it together in an
8:40
entertaining format is going to take forever yes sir so uh guys stay tuned
8:46
because I am pretty excited about this one if you enjoy the cringiness if you
8:51
enjoy just the the sheer entertainment Factor honestly we did stuff we knew was
8:58
wrong oh yeah but we had to try time constraints tool constraints scrapyard
9:03
Wars constraints scrapyard Wars constraints Financial
9:07
constraints we did a lot of stuff all right so our first actual topic today is
9:13
Google IO is on there's lots of exciting
9:17
stuff going on Alex Goes High has posted
9:20
a mega thread for it so let's go ahead and full derp so I'll post that link in
9:25
the thing as soon as I can uh it's okay I will uh tell you what I will I will
9:30
grab that one I got it because it takes them a while to catch up anyways you sure yeah I'm here we press and okay uh
9:37
okay so uh what do we got here so there he's updating it as things go uh Google
9:43
and Android is everywhere truly the only Global overlords of Earth you can tell
9:47
this is a forum post and not an article on the verge or something along those
9:51
lines although these are definitely some interesting stats here uh between Chrome
9:56
Android and YouTube they have each so
9:59
search Chrome Android YouTube each have one billion users with how do you have a
10:04
user for search you could I mean it's
10:07
Google but you don't have to be logged in what do they not
10:11
know yeah but it's Google so are they
10:14
counting like guests as users um cuz
10:17
that's weird well they can probably tell cuz people's IPS will change cyclically
10:23
and stuff like that and they can persistent login accounts and stuff the
10:26
way they do targeted advertising so like if you're logged in
10:31
and if they have a billion Chrome users then like probably those people sear I'm
10:36
not trying to say they have less than a billion right I'm trying to say like how
10:39
do you even quantify that and they might have a lot more probably a lot more yeah
10:44
uh Gmail has over 900 million and is closing on a billion fast with that said
10:48
I personally have like half a dozen Gmail accounts so L um I don't know I
10:53
actually I recently I'm doing the Gmail to my kids thing from like the Gmail
10:57
commercial doing it yeah yeah I I wasn't doing it and then when my second one was
11:03
born and we were traveling in Asia I
11:06
realized that they were not going to remember anything about this trip and I
11:10
kind of went well they're not going to remember anything about most of their
11:13
lives and so I used to keep like a diary
11:17
pretty much straight up I had a diary through like most of high school I called it a journal because I didn't
11:21
want people to make fun of me but let's face it what's a journal it's a diary if
11:25
you're manad enough you could admit you have a diary so I had a diary and school
11:29
and so I was I'm actually like this is why this is why I asked to borrow the
11:32
GoPro for when I go to Taiwan oh because when I came back from Europe I had
11:37
decided okay I'm going to start keeping a travel log like not a not a day-to-day
11:41
journal for my whole just call it a travel diary travel diary I think
11:45
they're legitimately called travel
11:49
logs cuz if you only use it for the I don't know sure travel diar I don't care
11:53
but I decided like I was going to do that but now I think I'm just going to
11:56
try to get everything on a GoPro right and have a video version cuz I think
12:00
that's cool I don't have one yet at all I never
12:04
made one I yeah I I don't know if I believe that so we're going to we're
12:07
going to straw pull the crap out of this one guys is turnup going to become our
12:12
thing kids and uh kids and ladies and
12:15
gentlemen does Luke lafrenier have a
12:19
diary I never even acquired one I decided to go with a GoPro you know the
12:23
fact that you're just not man enough to admit
12:26
it 4% of the voters say no 4% my main
12:31
man well seven seven yes is running away
12:35
with it with turnup destroying the no vote is turnup our new thing turnup we
12:40
always put in a random thing did I do turnup twice you've done turnup twice in a row oh I didn't mean to and remember
12:44
we made turnup like a huge deal last time no turn-ups are just like remember
12:48
I like looked it up and like showed a turnup to the camera no there was a book
12:51
that uh that I read as a kid that was I think it's called turnips for supper or
12:55
something like that so I always think of turnips cuz like cuz he read a book when
12:59
you were a kid see that diary's working out for you that's the kind of thing
13:02
that I want so I want my kids to um do
13:06
remember when they read a book about a turnover no that's not what I want I
13:09
want them to I want them to know things that I can't really tell them when
13:13
they're five yeah but that they I think
13:16
it'll mean more having like potentially
13:20
a video and your words at the time
13:23
attached to it instead of like recalling the event so so I and so every email I
13:28
try to attach c a couple pictures or a very short video clip and then I tell
13:33
either stories about them or little things that they do or stories about
13:37
what's going on in our lives cuz I figure one possibility although it's up
13:40
to them is that we could read through them together or one possibility is that
13:45
they'll sit and read them on their own I don't know but I figure and the thing is you could read through them together but
13:49
then it could be a Gob back resource for however long which they might read by
13:53
themselves which is cool yeah it's like or maybe their kids will read it yeah or
13:57
that it's like a modern book yeah so um
14:01
so anyway I decided to do that anyway the point was I have a lot of Gmail
14:04
accounts cuz technically they can't own Gmail accounts even though Google's
14:07
commercial suggested that I have at least 20 that you can do this and then
14:12
when I tried to put in their birthday when I created the Gmail account it was like no you may not okay then um so over
14:20
four I think I think it's it's assumed that you have control of the account so
14:25
I think Google was like well the parent will make it and it will be fine so
14:29
Android M preview six main new features
14:33
hopefully uh one of them is uh better memory management uh app permissions
14:39
management so you can actually manage each app's permissions individually and
14:43
apps will request permissions when they need as opposed to on installation it's
14:47
an iOS thing so that's uh oh it's nice to have it yeah no I agree I'm just
14:51
saying that's that's an iOS thing app links so Android is smarter with web
14:55
links now like a Twitter link on an email we'll immediately open Twitter instead of asking you what to do it that
14:59
every freaking time and like the funniest thing is when it's like a tweet
15:04
that contains a YouTube link and you click it and it like opens up Twitter
15:08
and then it goes away and then it like opens up YouTube once you've already got your defaults like why are you doing
15:12
this much better Android pay creatively
15:18
named is the full replacement of Google
15:21
Wallet it uses NFC and host card emulation and Google says it's about
15:25
Simplicity security and choice works with all four major credit card
15:29
providers Visa Mastercard American Express and discover and will come
15:33
pre-installed on 18t Verizon and T-Mobile new devices so they're going
15:37
for pretty much widespread I mean what
15:42
Sprint remains all the things yeah who
15:46
else is a major carrier in the states does Sprint piggy back off
15:50
someone no no Sprint is Sprints their own netork okay okay I think that's like
15:54
pretty much it yeah um so it'll work in doesn't T-Mobile piggy back off people
15:58
no they their own network okay so it'll work in 700,000 stores in the US and
16:03
also for purchasing blah blah blah okay is that 700,000 like if it works in McDonald's
16:08
is that counting all the McDonald's that are getting it I don't know cuz that
16:13
could be like a couple really big chains so Android pay is not limited to Android
16:18
M however um NFC through fingerprint
16:23
support is limited to M which I think is
16:26
kind of I would want that I would straight up want that with how good the
16:29
fingerprint scanner is on the Galaxy S6
16:33
man that's like freaking awesome like the um that access point the video for
16:38
which is coming out on YouTube at some point it's already up on name uh yeah
16:42
yeah excla yeah um so it has app based
16:46
management and it supports signing in with your uh fingerprint on iOS but not
16:51
on Android man it's nice fire up the app
16:55
Boop in done love it um improved Power
16:58
Man man agement and Hardware support
17:02
So power consumption on Android uh
17:05
mainly with the introduction of do which is a new feature that will use the
17:08
sensors on the device to kill background processes thank
17:11
you when in when the instand by mode
17:15
through alarms and priority surfaces will still be so so alarms and priority
17:19
stuff will still be active but something like I had a huge problem where uh
17:25
bloody hell what's it called Plex was nuking my battery life like I would fire
17:30
up my phone from fresh and if I put it on my bed like my entire like or like
17:36
under a pillow or something and walked away from it leaving the screen off it'd
17:40
be at like 30% battery at the end of the day having done nothing no screen time
17:44
and like was like a a a toaster inside
17:47
there like it was just churning this thing is supposed to have what a day and
17:51
a half or two days of battery y uh I get
17:54
most of a day well you've got something installed that's nuking it and my wife
17:58
too um Yvonne is running like tried to figure it out yet but I'm sure there is
18:02
something she's running a 1 M8 and she get her battery dies at like 4:30 like
18:07
every day taran's just walking down the street wearing his helmet uh oh he's
18:11
getting his bike out of my car okay yeah don't worry I was like what the hell no
18:16
no he's okay everything is okay uh
18:19
Android M will include native support for USB type c so uh that with that
18:25
comes with some special features so uh using your device to charge another
18:29
device would be one because USB type-c can both accept and output power so
18:34
that's pretty cool um what else we got new minor features including improved
18:39
word selection copy paste and more independent volume controls for alarms
18:43
apps and music thank you this is something that some skin makers do but
18:48
others don't it drives me crazy I love the Droid Turbo but there are a couple
18:52
of things that super duper make me mad about it and not having those individual
18:57
volume sliders easily accessible is definitely one of them I still don't
19:02
think it's clear what Android m is going to stand for I think one of the Front
19:07
Runners is what marshmallow that would make sense the first thing that came to
19:10
mind for me was munchie I figured M&M's
19:13
but that's just kind of awkward and long yeah it's amazing how quickly we're
19:19
getting uh we're getting M over lollipop lollipop was a very shortlived uh
19:25
Android compared toat I am totally 100%
19:28
okay with that I was not a huge fan of Lollipop all right so there's a bunch of
19:32
other stuff so there's more about Google cardboard um so the new design fits 6in
19:37
smartphones and the SDK also now supports iOS and they talked about how
19:41
they're going to start moving away from cardboard yeah that's that's good I
19:46
guess yeah it's actually quite interesting where even are these notes
19:51
oh they're just not in here yeah oh they're not in there there's way too
19:54
much Google IO is crazy there's a bunch of stuff for Android Wear I mean they've
19:57
continued to roll trying keep up with you looking at the
20:01
actual Dock and I'm like I don't know where he's getting this no there's nothing in there um so like one example
20:06
of a relatively new feature is you can flick and then scroll through things if
20:10
you aren't able to scroll with your hand through your notifications um my gat R
20:14
charger replacement hasn't actually arrived yet but Ed has the gatr as well
20:19
and was telling me I kind of laughed at him when he showed it to me I was like
20:23
really you're going to like go like this and like flick through things like that
20:27
he's like actually it's pretty handy like you're holding an umbrella or
20:30
you're like holding something and a notification comes in boop boop boop
20:33
okay anyone other than you that's currently driving all right yep I buy it
20:37
I buy it so um yeah they've actually got
20:41
a neat little chart here of Android Weare as it's continued to develop it's
20:45
funny because no matter how good Android Wear is Apple has still sold more of
20:50
like individual skews within the Apple watch lineup as Android Weare devices
20:55
total yeah um so yeah here you go you can actually see so so Wi-Fi came in
20:59
always on apps came in new launcher happened Emoji recognizer wrist gestures
21:04
Maps API lots of stuff came in the May update that I haven't tried yet so I'm
21:09
I'm pretty excited to try that out as soon as my charger gets here um I guess
21:14
that's probably enough google.io for now how much do you guys care about Google
21:17
IO I think we should revisit the does Luke have a diary straw pole just to get
21:21
a final tally here 56% of you figure yes
21:24
indeed Luke does have a diary literally
21:28
has no physical thory was going to do it then thought of GoPro would have
21:32
definitely done it I think travel stuff is cool at the very least logging what
21:37
you did in your travels I think is very cool mhm mhm okay do you still have your
21:42
Diaries yes I do oh that's kind of cool yeah they're actually they would be
21:46
unless I was dead and my house was being cleared out you probably wouldn't find
21:51
them cuz they're like I mean it's high school so they're like hyper
21:56
embarrassing like freaking brutal Co
21:59
that makes sense yeah there's like there is stuff in there that just
22:04
no that just no were you like no holds
22:07
bar just whatever is going on oh yeah oh
22:10
yeah I was like because I never intended for anyone to read it and I was super
22:15
duper careful that no one ever read it
22:18
cuz it's like has Aon read it
22:21
no oh man are you kidding okay I changed
22:26
my mind Luke doesn't have a diary because if he did he would understand
22:30
that your wife doesn't read it I I
22:33
actually don't I would have definitely got a travel diary I believe you I might
22:38
even still log certain things if I don't get them on the GoPro I'm shutting down
22:41
that straw pole never going to look at it again because I believe you all right
22:45
so wccf Tech reports I posted the link
22:48
already um that the GTX
22:51
980ti will launch on June 2nd at
22:56
computex brings competitive graphics
22:59
performance to
23:03
GeForce
23:06
what I I didn't even see that I didn't
23:10
even see that sub headline like are you
23:13
for real anyway
23:17
wccf they're going to have an event on June the 2nd it is rumored to be a live
23:22
stream where they are going to reveal it this teaser pretty much says what it's
23:28
going to be it'll be yet another card with that Dam cooler on it so Brandon's
23:32
going to have to figure out the world's most creative way to make yet another
23:37
identical looking NVIDIA card try to fly it around on a drone and stuff you
23:41
should just like I don't know like we're going to just have to start doing aerial
23:45
footage of them yeah to get a different shot from what we had before you know if
23:50
they waited until we moved into our new office we're getting a jib so we'd be
23:55
able to do like jib shots
23:58
now slightly different shot of what
24:02
looks exactly the same it's funny I was
24:05
um cuz I mean they they teased the graphics card right can you tell if it's
24:09
silver or black uh it's silver can you tell yeah yeah you can tell it's silver
24:14
so we were we were joking about this we figured hey if we don't get a sample in
24:18
time from NVIDIA we can just do all our b-roll of another NVIDIA card and then
24:23
like whatever we'll put like a text correction actually the capacitors are
24:26
in slightly different places we we got the real one now it's a little different worry about
24:30
it like straight up um so blah blah blah
24:34
it'll be the fastest gForce 900 series card aside from the Titan X which is
24:39
technically not gForce it brings performance to GeForce gForce yeah so
24:44
it's got to be the fastest one okay CU it introduced performance to
24:49
GeForce sure and I don't know how they figure the Titan X sold more than the
24:54
original Titan and even gtx690
24:58
um maybe they mean in terms of price
25:02
okay whatever apparently the uh the the
25:05
rumored specification so I'll go ahead and fire this up because I don't I feel
25:08
like the original Titan sold a lot yeah because it was more useful as a like as
25:14
a as a double Precision like card the
25:17
fact that the Titan X doesn't has neuter double Precision performance just like
25:21
the GeForce cards really kills it for a lot of developers uh the GTX 98 is
25:27
apparently going to rock a gm200 core it is a cutdown chip that features 2,816
25:33
Cuda cores um blah blah blah blah the
25:36
only site still reporting specifications aside from the one leaked by Hardware
25:39
battle who have rumored 372 course uh
25:43
blah blah blah blah blah etc etc etc apparently it'll have 6 gigs of gddr5
25:48
vram compared to 12 gigs on the Titan X which is probably fine which is probably
25:53
probably on the money compared to the if we look at GTX 780ti versus
25:59
which is the most similar comparison we can make because that's going to be the
26:03
cut down actually Flagship core whereas
26:07
GTX um oh no GTX 780 was based on the
26:12
same core yeah but still hm okay now
26:15
hold on just a second here was it not yeah no 780 so no 780 to Titan is a more
26:21
similar comparison to what the rumored 980 TI is to Titan x uh because 780 Ti
26:28
had all functional units enabled it lacks double Precision but and it didn't
26:32
have a huge frame buffer but it actually had all the functional units so um so
26:38
980 would be more similar to like a 770
26:42
so it's funny the way they do that where they actually like they creep up the
26:47
model number relative to what the actual
26:50
under the hood Hardware is which is super annoying I wish they'd make our
26:54
lives easier just be like this is how it slots Titan cart
26:58
that is our top tier GPU it has everything and a huge frame buffer and
27:03
double Precision maybe next step down is
27:06
the cut down one of that and even that's confusing because the fact that a 980
27:10
and a 980 TI are rumored to be based on
27:15
completely different gpus same Maxwell
27:18
architecture completely different gpus
27:21
is pretty irritating and pretty frustrating to me it's weird it should
27:26
be like Titan and and Titan TI they
27:30
should have just called it 970 and 960 TI in the first place and released the
27:35
rumored 960 as a 960 then um which I
27:39
mean was rumored to be coming out ages ago and just straight up never happened
27:44
so I don't know how much the yawning this week has been
27:48
exhausting mainly from scrapyard Wars yeah it has been really really really
27:53
tiring wait a minute gtx960 does exist
27:57
did I just miss that this hold on a second when did that come
28:01
out did I just completely derp I think I sent you a card that I wanted us to
28:05
review a version of a 960 did we never do one that was the white and red
28:10
one no this is like totally out when did this happen did we did we do a
28:15
video April 28th 960 stricks we covered this we
28:21
covered a few of these cards wow and then I wanted you to do the white and
28:25
red one for my well whatever my point still stands 960 could have come out
28:29
later oh that's right cuz it was rumored to come out right away wow guys I am
28:33
running on so little sleep I I I even
28:38
hosted one of those videos I know for sure I hosted one of them oh that's
28:43
funny wow this one I sent you this and asked
28:48
if we could review it right the asusa white and red 960 all right well
28:53
whatever my point still stands some consistency in the naming scheme with
28:57
respect to What GPU is actually inside it would be super D duper nice
29:02
NVIDIA um I guess that's pretty much all there is to say about it uh 3D Mark fire
29:07
strike score is rumored to be around 14,000 points which puts it within
29:12
spitting distance of the Titan X and a lot higher than a GTX 980 which is
29:16
somewhere in the 11,000 to 11,500 range
29:20
so there you go guys once again or not
29:24
even once again I don't remember the time they've done this a TI card is is
29:28
like way better than the non-ti card whereas the ti was supposed to be like a
29:33
little bit of a bum yeah it's like Pro it's a little bit better build quality
29:39
and like faster but not that much faster don't worry about it um so yeah very
29:46
interesting my laptop's lagging again yeah that's fine I'll uh I'll go ahead
29:51
and fire up the link here just the next no problem I got it I got it so you were
29:55
able to share it before I was able to scroll to it
30:00
Volvo did a demo for uh for a safety
30:04
feature for a particular car the
30:08
XC60 and instead of automatically stopping it
30:13
drove into a group of onlookers who were
30:17
expecting the vehicle to automatically
30:20
stop unfortunately according to Volvo
30:23
spokesperson Stefan elmstrom
30:26
excuse EXC me elstrom and that that o
30:30
with the dots above it I know that's not how you pronounce it I give up um the
30:34
system is not meant to be used in this fashion and the the it's for it's for
30:38
City Safety it's supposed to avoid rear Enders with other cars not detecting
30:43
pedestrians that system is $3,000 extra
30:46
and is named The Pedestrian detection system which was not in this
30:51
thing so uh yeah it's only about a 30 second long video so we might as well
30:56
just a hilarious we might as well just cringe and uh apparently no one was
31:00
seriously hurt so we can sort of yeah so
31:05
this was at a dealer so the dealer in question was oh my goodness
31:11
wow that looks extremely painful yep hey
31:15
guys so the de the dealer in question
31:18
was trying to demonstrate the city safety feature but that system is not
31:22
able to detect pedestrians cuz it lacked the optional pedestrian Det detection
31:28
system now this is something that is not
31:31
unique to Volvo in fact when we were in
31:35
Germany uh working on that video with the BMW 1 Series BMW specifically said
31:41
you know well hey this particular model at this trim level has detection for
31:46
this and not this or this and not this so I mean here's a here's a great
31:51
example oh shoot I forget what exactly they told me but it was that um
31:58
right it worked for cars and not
32:02
pedestrians because of something to do with like it would right because if if
32:07
you're trying to in a lot of uh in a lot of territories in a lot of places like
32:11
maybe less of an issue in Germany maybe less of an issue here but in a lot of
32:14
places the only way to to turn onto a street when people are just walking
32:18
across it is to kind of inch your way forward so they leave The Pedestrian
32:23
detection off because otherwise you'd never move anywhere and I went oh crap I
32:28
didn't think of that yeah me neither that's not a thing here straight up did
32:31
not think of that yeah wow that blows
32:34
yeah look at my yeah your your computer is boned
32:38
um so I'm going just read here Volvo has
32:42
also said that even if the car was equipped with that system the driver's
32:46
foot on the accelerator would have overridden the automated system and they
32:49
State I would like to emphasize that Volvo car strongly recommends to never
32:54
perform any of these tests towards a real human only dummies or similar
32:57
object should be used so they're probably super not stoked with that
33:01
dealership imagine how pissed like Volvo head office is at that
33:05
dealership like who thought that was a good idea that is just that is just
33:12
that's cringe even compared to the scrapyard War series we're about to
33:15
release which is pretty cringe pretty cringe oh God it's pretty cringe so okay
33:21
guys I want to uh this is this is going to be a good straw pull this is going to
33:25
be a good straw pull straw pull.me because our um get turn
33:31
ups no problem I got this
33:35
um have you heard of the graphics card
33:39
maker
33:44
colorful all right so permissive vote
33:47
duplication checking your poll has been created here we go have you heard of
33:53
colorful because our audience is pretty heavily skewed towards Australia North
33:59
America and countries in Europe where
34:02
they speak a lot of English whether we're talking the UK or whether we're
34:06
talking Germany like places where English is very widespread and colorfuls
34:11
main main territory of strength is not exactly in those places so I would love
34:17
to I'd love to hear from you guys wow we are not getting many votes for have you
34:22
heard of colorful uh do you have this uh do you have this news I like do you want
34:28
do you want to do a reboot what is going on I can do a reboot it's there you go
34:31
there you go it but I don't know if it's going to you got notes there we go all
34:35
right so you want to tell them about colorful while we watch these votes come in with over 50% of our viewers saying
34:41
they have never heard of colorful the graphics card maker they're kind of
34:45
fantastic they're huge by the way but anyways colorful is a China based
34:48
company selling cards in the Chinese market that is probably all you really
34:52
need to know to be completely honest carful started out I heard there's a billion people in China and continues to
34:58
be a a vendor of wacky over-the-top GeForce GTX cards payot is the biggest
35:02
graphics card manufacturer by volume with a brand portfolio that includes
35:06
Galaxy gain word point of view and its own namesake colorful could become the
35:11
second largest graphics card maker in terms of shipments by the end of the
35:14
year next to only payot which honestly a lot of people in those demographics that
35:19
you were just talking about probably don't know palot that well either yeah
35:22
um I'm sure they know of them but not that well I only know this because I
35:26
tried to I I was the I was actually the
35:29
product manager for its pallet uh I was
35:32
the product manager for pallet when they tried to expand into North America um
35:38
but they uh it was totally unsuccessful and they bailed um but yeah yeah pallet
35:44
is huge as well they have like but the problem is that like at the time anyway
35:50
uh you know the people I talked to they didn't seem to really understand what
35:54
the North American Consumer cared about like when I sit down and have a meeting
35:58
with them it'd be like yeah so uh you
36:03
know we have huge production capacity I'm like
36:07
okay why is a customer going to buy your card well we can supply so many graphics
36:12
cards we are the number one largest graphics card maker I'm like right but
36:16
why are they going to buy it instead of an EVGA card because EVGA is a monster
36:20
in North America if it's not EVGA it's
36:24
straight up not worth as much for some reason I I can't quite understand it
36:28
myself but um there you go uh and and and it never
36:35
really got any further than that
36:38
so both of those guys pallet and
36:41
colorful just have some some challenges to overcome before they can yeah I'm
36:45
going to show this in a minute before they can they can penetrate the markets
36:48
where most of our viewers are based you know it's another one that a lot of
36:52
people don't realize is as big as it is is tool T Tu um that's uh if I recall
36:59
correctly that's power color which by the way is different from colorful power
37:03
color I believe Zotac and
37:06
Sapphire I think tul is uh T is sapphire
37:10
I don't want to get that wrong
37:15
though don't remember who Vision Tech is no no no no no no apparently tul is okay
37:20
uh daughter while you search for that colorful has been uh clocking an average
37:24
of 500,000 graphics cards shipped per month
37:28
that's a lot isn't that crazy that's
37:32
insane wow geez they're projected to have
37:36
shipped over 5 million cards in 2015 okay I know Zotac and Sapphire are under
37:42
they're they're actually owned by the same um products graphics cards tool
37:46
might just be power color in terms of graphics cards uh colorful has outsold
37:52
ASUS MSI Gigabyte and
37:56
Zotac look at that pretty insane yeah tool is just power color I derped there
38:00
but yeah but zo okay so yeah so that's something a lot of people don't realize is the brand names that they buy from
38:05
sometimes don't have a whole ton to do with the the companies that are actually
38:09
making them so companies like ASUS and Gigabyte and MSI they make and brand and
38:15
support their own graphics card someone like EVGA is not a graphics card
38:19
manufacturer they design but they do not actually build graphics cards they they
38:25
contract out um so anyway uh just some
38:28
idea why colorful probably doesn't do quite as well in North America as they
38:31
do in China that is one of their iame
38:35
graphics cards that's a 660 Ti and boy is it ever colorful um there were some
38:40
when I was researching them when I found out they were the going to be the
38:43
biggest maker in the world I found some other just like banan stuff as well like
38:47
look at this thing have you seen their Wow have you seen their like $1,300
38:53
gtx980 no I haven't look at how big it
38:57
is is uh let's see if I can I can find that one is this it no that's not it
39:02
it's very oh is this it yeah that's it so that's their $1,300 triple slot
39:08
gtx980 so they're just they're just kind of out there in terms of of their
39:12
designs which is which is kind of cool I mean it's neat to be doing something a little bit different but uh oh I got
39:18
signed out of my Google account what the
39:21
IE game what the heck with a way too
39:24
expensive 980 and I have to do my twostep
39:28
I I guess my my 30 days is up or whatever yeah
39:33
yeah I lik the rainbow motherboard from
39:36
MSI back in the day looking at that card that you just showed motherb both Gigabyte and MSI
39:43
were like that beautiful MSI 975
39:47
motherboard so attractive I think this is probably the era you're thinking
39:52
of um oh no hold on no when did MSI
39:58
start doing the there was actually a rainbow board wasn't there no no they
40:01
didn't have a rainbow board but they had one that had a roller coaster yeah the
40:06
roller coaster was sick I I'll see if I can find here okay yeah here oh maybe it
40:10
was Gigabyte maybe it was Gigabyte okay so this this was a hilarious motherboard
40:15
so great uh no this was this was MSI
40:18
this was MSI that was what we said that's what I thought right so they did
40:22
this for a while this like roller coaster of heat pipes thing uh here's
40:27
another one here's a bit of an older one that's a P35 board um and Gigabyte used
40:33
to have some just abominable looking
40:36
motherboards as well uh this is probably what you're thinking in terms of like
40:40
rainbow board right I think that was it cuz the RAM slots yeah look at that four
40:44
colors of RAM slots different colors here orange purple blue light yellow
40:49
yellow green blue purple copper that's
40:54
silver White so many oh my goodness that was a cool
40:59
board though and we're probably going to see some designs like this again because
41:02
this was back when DDR3 was first coming out and like stuff like this four
41:07
different colors of slots for adding cards yeah that's a really old AMD board
41:12
that one that you're looking at so we're probably going to see stuff like this
41:15
again because this was a pretty common thing back when ddr2 or back when DDR 3
41:20
was first coming out it was prohibitively expensive and so you can
41:24
actually see this board has two sets of d D R2 slots so four ddr2 dims or two
41:30
DDR3 dims because the Assumption was if you were buying DDR3 you were not buying
41:36
four sticks of it so it was supposed to be like an upgrade path not that it will
41:40
make sense this time not that it made sense last time just buy a board that
41:44
accepts the memory you're putting into it now and don't worry about that stuff
41:48
but the upcoming CPUs from Intel Skylake
41:51
if I recall correctly is when we're going to actually have support for both ddr2 or both DDR3 and ddr4 on the memory
41:59
controller so we'll be able to do apples to apples comparisons even more apples
42:02
to apples than we did before which by the way was pretty Apples to Apples for
42:05
the people complaining about my DDR3 versus ddr4 test um and we'll actually
42:10
be able to do them on the same board um
42:14
so yeah DDR3 has really dropped in price lately hey distribution of clicks for
42:19
the straw pole geographically oh they have that apparently so United States
42:24
48% uh UK 12% Canada 12% and then it
42:29
falls off a cliff at least cuz Australia is sleeping yeah yeah Australia
42:33
Australia likes to watch The W show in the morning I think yeah all right so oh
42:40
my computer's locked up oh it's back you are just not having a good time I don't
42:45
know what's going on with this thing it's just been a rough week and I think
42:49
we just need to it's so hot I know it's really hot in here I'm really looking
42:54
forward to the new office really looking
42:57
forward to the new office all right so this is a rumor from
43:02
Apple Insider do you have this or should I just do it cuz I could just do it I
43:07
think I got it uh the original oh the op here is dead hero and actually I should
43:14
uh I should find some other Ops because I haven't been saying them I'm sorry
43:18
guys aing for the colorful one uh raahi
43:22
Kumar SP for the Volvo one someone spelled his name wrong when they
43:27
for the GTX 980ti rumor and Alex Goes
43:32
High I believe I did mention and he's doing a great job of maintaining that
43:35
thread with uh with all the I really like that when someone does show
43:39
coverage and they keep the thread updated Victorious does that a lot of
43:42
the time events yeah okay so Microsoft may be rumored to
43:49
be interested in acquiring Blackberry so we could have a we could
43:56
have the least phone platform with all the security
44:01
that Blackberry brings to a phone
44:04
platform with their expertise and patents and stuff I would really much
44:08
rather Apple or Google acquired them straight just straight up because so
44:13
many more devices would be able to take advantage of blackberry's expertise
44:16
because let's face it their expertise isn't making phones that people buy no
44:20
their expertise is mobile device security and I would love for some of
44:24
that influence to be on the Android platform um or even iOS which isn't that
44:28
bad compared to Android um so there you
44:32
go I kind of liked it I'm sorry I kind of liked it uh oh the iPhone yeah it's
44:37
not that bad there's things that I made why why don't you just talk about it cuz you're not going to be doing a review so
44:41
we can we can talk about this rumor which there's not really much to say
44:44
there's a rumor in fact why don't I just finish this um Microsoft likely
44:49
motivated by a desire to deepen its Fay into the mobile Enterprise and gain
44:52
access to blackberry's patent Trove same reason anyone would be interested in
44:56
BlackBerry Chinese technology firms Huawei Lenovo and Zi have also expressed
45:00
interest no party has taken definite steps towards an activition which
45:04
basically means this article is fluff and blackberry sold some 1.6 million
45:09
phones during its fiscal fourth quarter whereas Apple sold 74.5 million in the
45:14
same period 1.6 million phones is not going to keep you in business Blackberry
45:17
I'm very sorry I do love you dearly but I just wish your technology was in a phone platform that I actually want to
45:22
use carry on talk about your iOS experience how long you on it okay so
45:26
what month yeah okay um first time right yes iMessage is great iMessage just
45:32
craps all over Hangouts like it's
45:36
disgusting iMessage is just so much better there's so much crap all over
45:40
Hangouts you just don't even want to touch it anymore that bad huh I don't I
45:44
don't find Hangouts that bad but I don't like using Hangouts as a mix I don't
45:47
like it either hand it well is great as
45:50
just web messaging that is synced with your phone I think that's really good um
45:55
but I I don't like I message to use it for text messaging so then you have to
45:59
use messaging as well and messaging is garbage so then you have to use some
46:04
other app and then that some other app doesn't really work with your Smartwatch
46:07
very well so then that's a garbage and it's just frustrating um and then all of
46:13
the rest of the things that I like about the phone have nothing to do with the fact that it's an iPhone right 100% to
46:19
do with the fact that apps are usually made better for the iPhones like Instagram works way better
46:24
the Twitter app on iOS is way nicer are just that I didn't like uh how the phone
46:31
worked in terms of customizability I didn't like that I can't really mess
46:35
with my homepage as much as I did before I don't like that I can't change a lot
46:39
of things but iMessage being so good and
46:44
all the apps being just better developed for iOS was really nice mainly because I
46:48
use Instagram and Twitter a lot right
46:51
and like Instagram's huge like this phone trying to take a picture with it
46:54
I'm like wow this looks terrible and then I click the take photo button and
46:59
it's like wow it looks way better that's dumb and then I upload it on Instagram
47:04
and I'm like wow it looks bad
47:07
again what like what do I do and then on
47:10
an iPhone it's like okay it looks like this press button K it still looks like
47:14
that I'll put to Instagram K yeah okay everything's fine I don't know yep so
47:19
frustrating and I mean another great example would be vessel um vessel still
47:24
doesn't have an Android app why don't they have an Android app because whether
47:29
people like it or not I don't care and is that Android's fault no I still
47:33
really like Android but it's just it's nice when you get all the apps so I
47:37
don't if you don't like this I don't care it's been it's been tackled again
47:41
and again and again and there's there could be a a billion different reasons
47:45
for why but iOS users spend more money
47:49
on apps they are much more likely to pay for an app I don't care why let's not
47:53
get into why socioeconomic blah blah blah blah blah I don't care someone in
47:58
the chat was like doesn't know how to focus no that's actually a I was making
48:02
two comments in one it it takes the photo fine it looks like garbage and you
48:07
take the photo and it looks really good and I could transfer that off to onto my
48:10
computer and it would look fine and everything's good it's it's when you
48:13
upload things to Instagram on Android it kills the quality and this is exactly
48:17
one of the issues with Android is someone over there who has a viewfinder
48:21
whose preview is actually very close to the picture you take is probably telling
48:25
you you don't know what you're doing but actually my Moto X did it fine many
48:29
Android phones have viewfinders that look very little like the finished
48:33
picture uh my Droid Turbo for example not to the same extent but does have a
48:38
viewfinder that looks significantly worse than the finished picture um and
48:42
it's it's a it's a processing thing it's an optimization thing and does it really
48:47
matter as long as my picture looks good I guess not but it doesn't cuz you're
48:51
uploading to Instagram but it's part of the experience and then that's a different step that's the Instagram app
48:56
compression not being handled as well on the Android and it's hard to tell like
48:59
how good the photo you're taking is until after you take it which is stupid
49:04
and kind of hurts the experience and the other thing is app availability so if
49:08
you're developing a paid app or an app for a paid service like vessel you're
49:11
spending all of your time and all of your money developing the iOS one
49:15
because whether whether you guys personally like it or not I don't care
49:18
um Apple iOS users are more likely to
49:22
pay for a service that they're using um
49:25
so you ask government proposes to classify cyber security or hacking tools
49:31
as weapons of war isn't the future going to be an interesting time uh this was
49:36
posted by fa Salo and the original article here is from beta news looks a
49:41
little something like that I'm I'm sharing it right now and
49:46
it's funny because in spite of all the NSA stuff that's happened over the last
49:51
couple of years and and all of the concern that we have about our about our
49:56
ongoing online privacy and privacy in general I mean you look at what
50:00
countries like China are doing where they're creating these social marit
50:05
programs for their citizens where they're just straight up no not even
50:10
hiding it we are spying on literally everything you do don't screw it up um
50:16
which is insane I mean including like political opinion I don't I don't I like
50:23
I don't see
50:27
I don't see why most people would need
50:30
tools for um would would need intrusion
50:35
software most people shouldn't need that but let's say for example you are a
50:40
white hat okay and you're working on
50:44
attacking something to find out how to
50:47
block against an attack this is absolutely a thing and so how do how
50:53
does the law get amended to account for that because let's face it the you can't
50:56
penetration test your own system you're going to be sitting duck and the guys
51:00
who are going to break the law are going to break the law the guys who are out
51:03
there trying to siph in tens of millions of dollars from bank accounts or
51:07
whatever it is that they're trying to to take advantage of what what was the one
51:11
where it was uh it was taking pennies off of transactions in Flight that must
51:16
have been about a year ago or something like that yeah isn't that the storyline
51:19
of office space too I can't remember but like I think it happened I'm just saying
51:24
yeah but but but anyway are these guys is really going to be deterred by oh you
51:28
know well I guess on top of the millions of dollars we're stealing we'll also own
51:31
a weapon of War I mean it might deter the average you know high school kid who
51:36
wants to just you know be a dork script Kitty and attack something but um it
51:41
just seems kind of like tightening the
51:44
so much what defines a hacking tool yeah can you just generally classify a whole
51:49
bunch of different distributions of Linux as hacking tools because they get used for that so
51:55
the new definition of intrusion software is a tool which is capable of extraction
51:59
and or modification of data or information from a computer or network enabled device but like there's
52:05
distributions of L I don't remember what it's called but there's distributions of
52:09
Linux that you use for attacking rotors but you can use it for back back
52:15
Trace back back Trace I don't know
52:18
whatever moving on all right so uh op
52:23
here is Twisted dictator in the original article is from polygon do you have this
52:27
link yeah it seems to be working a little bit better now oh all right it kind of pulled things together here so
52:32
there has been a Star Citizen
52:36
leak so you can see the future of Star Citizen thanks to a leak okay I didn't
52:41
pull together enough oh you didn't manage to post the link yet I did but
52:45
the the the site's not really
52:48
loading go go go go go yay
52:52
internet so we can see some ships B
52:55
stinger sick hey wow look how gorgeous that
52:59
looks I want this game to be a thing with the with the very limited rendering
53:04
options in the graphics setting and stuff right now you can't even turn it up to look this good I mean look at that
53:08
look at the Shadows look at the illumination like parts of the wait what
53:14
this isn't an engine H yeah this is an engine yeah yeah so you can obviously
53:18
turn it up to look that good this is user you can't even run anti-aliasing is
53:23
this not user leak no what because that looks like we've
53:27
got some it was a 50 Gigabyte it was a 48 Gigabyte download hold on a
53:33
second leaked by Community manager yeah
53:37
he he accidentally leaked part of a URL someone guessed the rest of the URL and
53:40
it was a download that was 48 gabt some
53:44
of the leaked material could include story spoilers guys so if you don't want
53:50
any information on the Squadron 42 storyline before you play it you
53:54
probably shouldn't do any anything um so
53:57
the download had a lot of different things assets um people extracted them
54:02
and then basically
54:05
um put them in in engine so there you go
54:09
guys we were looking at stuff that isn't in the game but can be kind of hack
54:14
sored in there yeah so someone recorded that so that looks that good on a user's
54:17
computer I didn't even think cuz I thought it has no support for AA and
54:21
that looked really sharp but yeah but haven't you played in engine already it
54:25
looks really sharp without a yeah anyways a sort of you still have some
54:29
issues here there okay okay you're right now that I've blown It Up full screen it
54:33
doesn't look quite as impressive as it did before it still looks pretty good
54:37
though yeah yeah and one thing is there's a lot more thin and dense uh I
54:43
don't remember what it's called but when there's like lots of stuff there there's a lot more of that on this ship than
54:47
most of the ships I've got very cool so it turns out they are actually working
54:51
on it so that's good yeah videos are
54:55
rendered in yeah all right so Google
54:58
files P oh in engine not in real time
55:02
okay there you go that probably helped it Google files a patent for a smart
55:06
teddy bear that would watch and listen to users so this was posted by
55:11
Annihilation that's kind of a funny username for that particular post on the
55:16
Forum let's go ahead and pop this up the original article was on the mirror and
55:22
apparently that one's gone now yay sorry we cannot find that page
55:28
uh let's go ahead and globalnews.ca also has Works yay
55:33
Canada okay we talk about Creepy Petty uh Petty bears that went somewhere
55:40
worse wow all right so it describes a stuffed
55:45
toy such as a bear that would be able to control devices like TV and music
55:49
players so look look how creepy this drawing is microphones oh God cameras
55:57
speakers Motors world's creepiest toy so using
56:04
sensors and cameras it could sense your presence and turn its head around to
56:08
look at you um with a pass phrase it could activate and you could voice
56:13
control stuff um the patent filing was published last week but they actually
56:16
applied for the patent back in 2010 and Google's only real statement
56:21
was H we hold patents on a variety of ideas that's fun way of putting it some
56:25
of those ideas later mature into real products or Services some
56:29
don't so uh it doesn't sound like they're super confident yeah I I I
56:34
suspect it's going to be a while before anything like that happens however like
56:37
in that form
56:41
like you know like like Chucky style it's going to be a while before we see
56:45
anything like that but it's not imagine
56:48
a Furby that also recorded everything you
56:52
did like you know how creepy people thought the Furbies were
56:56
yeah yeah so think about a Furby that also records everything I mean is the
57:00
idea really that different from uh this
57:03
bad boy right here I forget what this thing's called but I remember we talked
57:07
about it on the uh we talked about it on W show oh you don't even want to see
57:12
he's showing me his his his hair is all like matted down from his watch like
57:16
mine's like no but mine's wet yeah oh well my whole ARM's wet that's why you
57:20
can't tell
57:24
H okay so what is what is this bloody thing called uh creators of the cognitoy
57:30
yeah that's the one so this is the dinosaur that uses IBM super computer to
57:34
answer questions that you ask it and learn over time and stuff like that so
57:39
you know is Google's idea really is is putting a camera and a microphone and
57:42
speakers on it really that far away I think this one already has a microphone and speakers it just doesn't have a
57:46
camera so smart toys are going to be a thing I just I don't know that I want it
57:50
to be like my TV remote you know and
57:53
that was kind of covered by the Google Patent but then again I guess you go ahead and patent something early enough
57:59
and you don't even have to be the one who builds it and you can still benefit
58:02
from that MH all right uh Microsoft manages to cut the
58:07
bandwidth required for cloud game streaming by over 80% this was posted by
58:12
Victoria Secret the original article here is from geek.com do you have the
58:16
link here yeah this is a really big deal
58:20
because the two main hurdles for
58:23
cloud-based gaming number one is going to be late
58:27
as fiber connections roll out that will
58:31
become less of an issue as companies get
58:35
serious about their cloud gaming Services they will start to roll out
58:39
more hubs so there will be a much better chance that you're close enough to a
58:44
center to like a a render Center in order to play the game but number two is
58:49
data limits I mean you talk to Gamers
58:52
and many of them are still buying physical media because they're download
58:56
limit is so50 Gab games are a thing I I've personally know people that bought
59:00
Witcher 3 cuz they're like well I'll go over my bandwidth cap so I bought a
59:04
physical copy straight up so game streaming is a way that your games
59:09
bandwidth use can be the gift that keeps on giving every time you play it you are
59:14
downloading more but
59:18
instead um and it's it's funny the the
59:22
article points out you'd think someone like Sony would be more concerned with
59:25
this actually I would have expected NVIDIA to be on top of something like
59:29
this but um basically what it does is it
59:32
actually uses the power of the game console or tablet or other device on the
59:37
other side to do some of the rendering and why would you expect Sony to be more
59:41
on top of this when Microsoft has been talking about this since before the Xbox
59:45
came out yeah this has been the the golden ticket that never showed up for
59:49
the Xbox one yeah um so basically the
59:52
local machine will do some of the work while the heavy lifting can be done on a
59:58
remote machine local GPU will do a rough sketch essentially and then the server
60:03
still does uh Shadows texture mapping and fine grain
60:07
details very very cool and it makes a huge difference to the amount of data
60:12
required to stream a game without impacting how the game plays so they used it on Doom 3 streamed at 60 FPS
60:17
with and this is based on the article so we haven't seen it with no discernable
60:21
difference between streaming with and without kahawai or kah or whatever
60:27
they're whatever they're calling this this uh bandwidth reduction tool it's
60:31
the Hawaiian word for stream apparently but yeah I I don't know how to pronounce
60:34
that so apparently there's also no noticeable differences in response times but again we were not the ones that
60:39
tested this I mean if Microsoft's plan
60:42
all along was to have the Xbox One
60:46
basically capable of competing with the PlayStation 5 or something like that
60:52
where they could really stretch out that life cycle by doing cloud based
60:56
rendering who knows maybe in 5 years or 8 years we're going to be going holy
61:00
crap did they ever have the right idea with the xbone they're taking their
61:04
sweet freaking time with it but yeah
61:08
that could be really interesting that was by Victoria Secret
61:11
I don't know if we called that it or not y yes I did also someone in the chat
61:15
when we were talking about smart toys um
61:18
posted smart dildo with a whole bunch of Kappa faces if you don't think those
61:22
exist you're crazy anyways there's a tech tip for you
61:27
moving on just a tip um until AMD form new cross licens
61:33
Graphics included yeah that so they've got a new cross cross licensing
61:36
agreement uh basically they've AMD has clarified it um a change of control
61:44
terminates the agreement for both so I think uh this is more in Intel's
61:49
interest than anyone else's but if AMD
61:52
were to be acquired that would be a changing control so if for example were
61:57
to acire AMD which is one of the rumors that's been floating around about AMD an
62:01
AMD acquisition uh the cross-licensing agreement where AMD and Intel won't
62:07
pursue patent infringements against each other um that allows AMD to produce
62:13
x86 processors so the kind that runs
62:16
Windows that goes in computers that would be
62:20
terminated okay so that's that's pretty
62:24
much it I mean AMD and Intel cooperate in a on a much deeper level than most
62:29
people probably realize and developing
62:32
standard things is super important yeah
62:35
I mean if if we lived in a world where we had different applications for AMD
62:42
processors or Intel processors well it would we'd basically well just funny I
62:47
was about to say we'd have the same kind of divide between AMD and Intel users as
62:50
we have between Mac and PC users except we kind of
62:53
do sad face um speaking of things that we kind of do
63:00
we kind of do sponsor spots nice Dollar
63:04
Shave Club is one of our sponsors today and for those of you who don't know what
63:09
Dollar Shave Club is they are the reason why my beard doesn't go down to here
63:13
good for you it would actually it would I believe
63:17
you so Dollar Shave Club is the way for to for a few bucks a month if you live
63:22
in the US Canada New Zealand or Australia
63:26
get highquality razors delivered directly to your door and their
63:30
marketing materials are actually hilarious have you ever had a look at
63:33
the actual like cards and and like stuff that's written in your packages
63:37
completely honest no it's hilarious they just have like the quirkiest sense of
63:42
humor ever really awesome writer so they've got all kinds of different stuff
63:45
up to the six blade executive razor they've got their one wipe Charlie's
63:48
peppermint scented butt wipes for men they've got their After Shave Dr Carver
63:53
they've got their Dr Carver shave butter which goes on clear so you can see what
63:56
you're doing while you're doing it and pretty much uh Dollar Shave Club is one
64:01
of our longest standing sponsors and I
64:04
don't think we've ever gotten a negative comment about them no straight up I have
64:09
never seen someone say lonus you told us Dollar Shave Club was good I joined the
64:13
Dollar Shave Club and they killed my mother like I have literally never
64:17
gotten a message like that or anything negative never mind the mother killing
64:21
that's probably good so dollarshaveclub.com Linus to join the
64:24
club and start shaving time and shaving money money money speaking of
64:32
money money Mast drop a place where you
64:36
can buy not razors see how we have non-conflicting sponsors there although
64:40
Mast drop does have just a metric
64:43
buttload of stuff um so today at dr.
64:48
psow uh I'm going to show show you guys this this is a ducky shine 4 special
64:54
community Edition you can see they wanted a 100 sold and this blew so many
65:00
people away that 281 of I believe they are uh go away
65:06
that's the layout that I want 281 of them were sold for $169.99 now that is a
65:13
pretty darn expensive little number but
65:19
but this is a pretty darn fancy little
65:23
keyboard so the community and Matt 30 designed the next special edition ducky
65:27
shine 4 with the stipulation that the keyboard would have multiple
65:31
switches so the silent feeler layout with Cherry MX clears and Cherry MX
65:35
Browns was the winner so you'll have
65:39
your choice of laser engrave blue and gray PBT key Caps or blank blue and gray
65:45
PBT key caps and the drop is limited to 500
65:50
units yeah boy that is so sick so pretty
65:54
much the rundown on mastop is all kinds of stuff like this they'll get community
65:58
sourced deals uh they'll Source things from manufacturers directly themselves
66:03
and the way it works is the more people buy the more everyone saves they've got
66:08
everything from I think I've got a knife that we got from Mast drop they had that
66:12
like that weird head pillow that we showed off on the W show before where
66:16
you just put it around your head and then you just lay on things to sleep I think it's around here somewhere I
66:20
should take it to Taiwan if you just want to kind of shop for kitchy cool
66:24
stuff Mass drop or if you are interested in that ducky
66:27
shine deal particularly draw UPS slw
66:31
show and then our last sponsor of the
66:35
day these guys never go away they just
66:39
keep making people's websites better for
66:44
a very reasonable charge squarespace.com
66:47
it starts at $8 a month with scalable
66:50
beautiful website templates whether you want to do a Blog a store I always use a
66:55
examples let's come up with other websites people could build a conspiracy
67:00
info site yes if you were like a dog da
67:05
if you like GTX 480s don't melt steel
67:09
beams you could make a website about that you could make a website like that
67:13
you could make you could make an online profile for your dog for dating purposes
67:18
you could make it well no not for you to date the dog for your dog to date that's
67:23
what I yeah people breed dogs is it any different dating thing you have a
67:28
profile like I like hikes and sniffing butts some people date just for the
67:32
action it could be like things that I enjoy and then just like a column of
67:36
food and like a column of buts Ning on this thing I
67:41
love a whole column of partially opened doors with like a shoe coming through so
67:47
so Squarespace makes your site responsive both in terms of how quickly
67:51
it's it's how quickly you can navigate on it because it's hosted over on
67:54
Squarespace servers as well as responsive in terms of responsive design
67:58
so it looks great on a phone it looks great on a larger screen or whatever the
68:02
case may be and regardless of your skill level so if you're very entry level you
68:06
can just do it all pretty much through a goey and if you're a little more
68:10
advanced then you can start to Tinker with things you can go ahead and build
68:13
the site that you want to build and when
68:16
you decide to sign up for Squarespace when you abandon that WordPress site or
68:20
whatever it is you're using now guys use offer code Linus to save 10% on
68:25
squarespace.com that applies to if you buy an entire year at a time you will
68:30
get 10% off that entire whack not to mention that if you buy an entire year
68:33
at a time you get your domain name thrown in for free so if it's one that's
68:38
available like a regular price domain they will throw that into your yearly
68:42
subscription squares space Builder beautiful thank you for that I got it
68:46
all right so what else what else do we got here we've got there must be other
68:52
things wicher three tweak tool oh yeah
68:55
yeah so we were kind of like talking about how they were going to do cool
69:00
stuff is this from them officially or this someone else releasing this
69:06
um okay so the original poster here was
69:10
uh blue4 and the original the original site
69:15
here is dsogaming.com I have to skip I have
69:19
never seen that before two of them yeah I had to skip two full page takeover ads
69:25
that is interesting I think they know a lot of people are looking at this article musthave tool gives you easy
69:30
access to extensive options so while the
69:35
developers while CD project red did give Gamers the ability with the latest patch
69:40
to go into the inii files and tweak a bunch of settings uh mod
69:45
mous I'm not even going to try has released a configuration tool that
69:48
allows you to easily gain access to numerous Graphics options without doing
69:54
text editing very very cool stuff it's um it includes
69:59
support for sweet FX and you can basically download it here did you post
70:04
this link in theat did it looks really nice I I think it's pretty cool actually
70:08
we've got to look at the the funny thing is it looks about the same as the actual
70:13
configuration options for a lot of games that I've seen so you can do things like
70:17
change object count trigger wow there's all wow maximum visibility depth
70:23
sharpening amounts everything thing you guys can play around with it all you
70:28
freaking want very Co fun rhus yeah have
70:31
have fun doing that thing uh I'm not doing that thing you kind of are no I'm
70:37
not I'm just I'm using whatever settings you're using oh it's not ready oh well
70:42
I'll figure it out then I'm probably not going to Tinker with this too much yeah
70:46
to be perfectly honest you probably don't have to use that at all okay
70:49
BackTrack 5 was the Linux OS thing
70:53
distribution that I was talking about a long time go that most people aren't going to know this reference for but
70:57
anyways moving on uh this is hilarious this was posted by Twisted dictator the
71:00
original article here is from The Verge uh Chinese Tech exact spends $100
71:05
million to create Star Trek inspired
71:11
offices that's awesome this is the stupidest thing ever no yes no yes no
71:18
we're talking about it that's true we're talking about it cuz it's ridiculous so
71:23
what if someone's like what if someone's like don't like my job I want to go work
71:27
in a space station that happens to be on the ground and can't go to space and
71:31
doesn't even look that much like the Starship Enterprise just like vaguely a
71:35
similar shape not even the same like if I didn't tell you that's the usss
71:39
Enterprise I did I just put an extra s in there man I'm tired
71:44
usss I I I wouldn't be too surprised if I was like huh it kind of looks like a
71:49
similar shape but I wouldn't be like that is the
71:53
Enterprise because I don't know know there's there's problems like the isn't
71:57
the height differential not even like that yeah no it's like aggressive it's
72:01
like a yeah oh oh yeah it's like a mushed Enterprise it's like if the
72:05
Enterprise crashed it's like Oh by falling from the sky come on did you
72:10
just search for USS Enterprise and it came up with a naval ship that's really
72:15
a more common search oh I missed an
72:19
S oh there we go yeah cuz Okay and like it
72:24
doesn't have the bottom thing wow lagging there we go there we
72:31
go so we'll pull up some images of the Starship Enterprise see aircraft carrier
72:35
was the first thing what's oh that's true that's true what is that I don't
72:39
know what this one is I actually you know what probably the only one I would
72:43
recognize just by looking at it is the uh the next generation one I don't even
72:48
see it here wow either way I think there's more
72:52
height differential and there's a thing below it which is obviously not being
72:58
shown and like the big saucer part is supposed to just be kind of connected by
73:02
like a little thing that's it yeah
73:06
that's next Generation right I don't know maybe not I was never much of a
73:10
treky I was probably much less than you were I never watched TV right I've I've
73:15
seen maybe one episode of Star Trek sorry for people that now hate me really
73:19
yeah really my dad really liked it but then I never watched TV so I've just
73:25
never really seen have you seen like the new movies I've seen one of them I think I
73:29
also don't watch that many movies I'm slowly getting into it like
73:33
I'm trying to catch up on things that I missed when I was a kid by watching Netflix and watching all these other
73:37
stuff cuz they're better than The Hobbit and you saw all three of those well my
73:41
family's always been really hardcore into Lord of the Rings cuz I read the books right yeah I see you're never
73:47
really a hardcore like TV and movies family how I'm trying to catch up on
73:52
things and I'm sure I'll end up watching Star Trek but it's just like yeah going
73:57
through the motions the chat hates me right now I'm just being honest I could
74:02
lie and be like uh yeah uh that's the
74:08
ship but that would just be stupid do we have any other rapid fire stuff oh
74:13

country if one company was to say say

like a 100 years from now corporations are essentially countries at this point
75:33
because we're getting close to that anyways um like if someone had to run
75:38
the whole world who would you think would do it
75:41
best I have always said I can't pick one
75:45
because I'm going to stick to my guns this is what I've always said a Costco
75:49
and Amazon merger would take care of everything I could ever need
75:53
yeah yeah if I had to pick one I was saying uh Amazon you go Amazon Costco no
76:00
I was saying likeliness Costco has better ethics I see okay yeah I would
76:04
prefer Costco ran everything yeah yeah it's like ginormous jar of pickles for
76:10
all yeah everyone would be paid well but
76:14
there wouldn't really be a lot of variance in like what you get to eat and stuff yeah but you have a lot of it
76:19
you'd have t every one would have like an industrial jar of pickles yeah an
76:23
industrial jar what what industry uses pickles shut up oh well food industry
76:28
shut up it's been a long
76:32
week I'm just like what well you know
76:35
those like giant jars of pickles that I know what you meant by industrial jar
76:38
pickles I hate you every week you'd get like two of those like giant trough
76:42
boxes of chicken a trough box okay somebody
76:48
please invent the trough box okay so
76:51
this has to be a take go to Costco check it's a out
76:55
container in the shape of an elongated bowl with a lid on it right but it's
77:01
like it like folds at the bottom like and has like a little wire handle like a
77:04
Chinese takeout box so you take you take
77:07
off the like the handle and like maybe it folds down to the bottom so it
77:11
doesn't drip through or something and that is the trough box you literally
77:14
work your way across and shovel the food into your mouth trough box you're a
77:18
genius all right so Google Maps Chrome
77:21
and YouTube offline support extended in a big way Google Maps is a huge one for
77:26
me it is such a pain in the ass to deal
77:30
with when you're traveling and you don't have a roaming data plan or something it's like well if I could just load a
77:34
bunch of this up on Wi-Fi and then maybe it would somewhat work and bippity boity
77:38
like hold up I'm going to pause you for a second just said you two are so stupid
77:44
it's unreal you have not seen scrapyard Wars 2 yet wow it is a whole other level
77:49
of unreal you have no idea your reality will collapse the reality you already
77:54

78:00

78:17
devices or higher in the near future and Maps will have an offline mode you will
78:21
have to download the maps you choose to use offline but come on how did this
78:25
take so long how long has Nokia had
78:34
this so frustrating but that'll be coming
78:38
sometime later this year Zotac and
78:41
apparent you you requested a sample of this
78:46
right is that is that in this new article is the is the that
78:52
I Titan Titan X Titan X
78:55
you requested a sample of the Titan x with the Arctic
79:00
Storm okay Titan x with a with uh an
79:04
aftermarket cooler with a with a non-reference CO I super want it and I'm
79:08
so happy this exists and I told you about this but because on the titanex
79:12
video when I'm like oh I really hope that someone makes an aftermarket cooler
79:16
and everyone was like you're such an idiot they never do that for Titans but
79:22
like I'm thinking this one is way hotter
79:25
R average running temperature than all the other ones so it's possible thank
79:29
you Zotac for doing such a thing so I'm trying to get them to send me one I
79:33
actually recommend if you want to see our video on how good it is go
79:36
like go after Zotac and be like hey send
79:41
Line Tech tips a freaking card so they can bench it the Arctic Storm is a
79:45
hybrid cooled card so it actually has both air and liquid cooling so it has
79:50
threads I believe yep so this is very similar to the ASUS p I believe they did
79:55
a what was it a 980 Poseidon or was it
79:58
an 700 series 780 780 it was a GTX 780 Poseidon
80:06
he didn't remember 960s existed uh yes there's a Poseidon 980 oh okay is there
80:10
a 782 come on help me help me I think so I think so please confirm for me cuz my
80:15
brain might have completely fallen out my ear while I was sleeping last night
80:18
okay good so there's a 780 Poseidon uh
80:21
this what this has been done before uh Cooler Master had
80:25
uh had a cooler that went on the GTX or the 8800 GTX or 8800 Ultra way back in
80:31
the day forget what that thing was called I reviewed it for Hardware
80:34
connects um so it's not a New Concept by
80:37
any stretch but very cool stuff AMD has
80:41
an it's coming teaser I feel like we're just we're just shoveling shoveling coal
80:46
into the hype machine at this point but might as well we might as well just show
80:52
you guys what's here I'm trying to catch up on the links guys we're just bouncing
80:55
all over the place and it's hard to keep so this was posted by epic ponage and
80:59
basically it's a graphics card for those of you who didn't clue into that um if
81:04
any of the rumors circulating are correct it'll be some kind of 390 series
81:10
graphics card you mean those rumors that have been circulating for like six
81:13
months oh my God AMD started them yeah
81:18
like uh we have no response to 980 what
81:21
should we do um let's tell people to wait for
81:26
390x all I can say AMD is if you're
81:29
going to do that if that's going to be your strategy good it better be good I
81:34
got no problem with the hype machine if you come through for me can you tell the
81:39
story again which story I'm not going to oh come on I I want to go to sleep no no

it I don't know that depends what time it is time it is uh hold on 6 a.m. is
82:23
300 p.m. the previous day day so 6:00 p.m. would be 3:00 a.m. the previous day
