wow did we do a pre-show welcome to the WAN Show ah someone did a pre-show nice
0:09
yeah that's right i was working
0:14
i was working too i noticed that um
0:17
Colton actually officially changed the start time of the WAN Show on the
0:21
channel did he change it to five he changed it to five but then he told me
0:24
he changed it to five so it didn't work
0:29
well that's a fail yeah you can't tell us that you changed it to five we would
0:33
have like probably never noticed yep and we would have like we would have tried
0:37
really hard to hit four o'clock or four thirty
0:40
and then and then we would have actually hit five
0:43
but he told us he changed it to five so now we're screwed you can't make us
0:47
comfortable i think we should change it back to 430. yeah yeah
0:51
yeah and then and then change it back to five
0:56
at some time and don't tell us this week was freaking crazy you want to
1:02
talk about your thing that you went and did yeah it was it was actually really
1:05
awesome so um yesterday this was a totally last minute thing
1:10
like i didn't find out until uh so what was yesterday we've been
1:15
trying to plan it for a little while yeah no no it's been possibly happening
1:19
for like weeks yeah but then um so
1:23
thursday i went down for a tour of monolith productions so
1:27
they're best known probably for their work on matrix online oh okay yeah um
1:33
um i'm just kidding i mean i knew them from
1:37
that i actually made it probably like almost no one else does
1:42
i knew they did that i played really yeah you played the matrix online
1:47
almost no amount of time you know there's like a beta or something you
1:50
know there's like a fan server like there's a guy who
1:54
he like packet sniffed to figure out what the server was doing
1:59
yeah and like like it's super broken like it's it's like actually really
2:04
really broken and terrible like you basically can't do anything and i think
2:07
you have to enter text commands in order to do things
2:11
oh yeah like it's like really broken
2:14
and it's still up but he's been working on it like since
2:18
it went down back in whatever that would be like 2007 2009 i don't remember when
2:24
it went down what a hobby yeah what a hobby indeed um
2:29
but uh anyway sorry probably better known for fear uh condemned fear too um
2:35
and then more series definitely yeah yeah um uh so middle earth shadow of
2:41
mordor and middle earth shadow of war yeah are probably what they are better
2:46
known for developing um and those last two have been done since the warner
2:50
brothers acquisition so that's how they managed to get the rights to make
2:54
middle earth games yeah so uh so anyway i got to go down there
2:58
and check these guys out and i didn't find out that i was going to be going
3:02
until i think tuesday late tuesday night
3:06
and i left here early
3:10
early thursday morning so i actually had to get up at like
3:14
6 15 in the morning and then meet pella
3:17
at the office and then we had to leave the office by
3:21
about 7 30 7 45 that got us down there
3:24
for a little after 10 and then we shot all day so we actually
3:29
shot for because they have a lot of stuff at their studio half hour lunch so we shot
3:34
for like 10 hours or so and then we left
3:37
late at night we got some five guys on the way back nice
3:40
that was pretty sick can't go down to america without getting some five guys
3:48
is it cheaper than it is down there because two burgers and one medium fries was
3:54
almost 30 canadian dollars so there's a five guys
3:57
in north van and just
4:00
like it's i'm not going to say
4:05
but it's there you know whose house that's new oh wow
4:09
that's crazy yeah
4:13
i don't know if they're like anywhere else yeah it doesn't look like it oh cool okay well at any rate um i did
4:18
specifically say vancouver so we were shooting there for like 10 hours and man
4:22
that place is so cool like i don't want to give away everything it's amazing
4:27
it's great there but like oh dude there's one in siri oh wow okay
4:32
i'm totally gonna go at some point yeah um
4:36
but yeah i was like super amazing they were really really open which was
4:39
probably the coolest thing about it yeah like they you you there was one thing
4:44
they really wouldn't show us well they showed me actually they let me into the
4:48
server room but they wouldn't let us film it yeah i'm not surprised and they
4:51
were you know there was stuff that i wouldn't have even considered so the
4:54
server room is technically like warner brothers property oh and
4:59
yeah that makes sense yeah that makes a lot of sense and so they couldn't give
5:02
me details like how fast their internet connection is they couldn't tell me what
5:06
speed their internal networking is running at i just thought it was cool
5:09
that they do that on site but they did tell me that their internal networking
5:13
is way beyond 10 gig oh
5:17
wow well you think about what their like
5:21
animators are working on like the size of some of the assets that they must be
5:24
working with how responsive it needs to be they've got somewhere between 150 and
5:28
200 people according to glassdoor like yeah it would have to be pretty
5:32
banging infrastructure man that would have been pretty cool i totally
5:35
understand why and it was cool by the way yeah but we couldn't film it yeah um
5:41
but they did give us some cool stats so they told us they have about 800
5:44
terabytes of storage on site which um
5:48
man you should have seen you should have seen the guy stiffen when i said oh hey
5:51
that's almost as much as we have
5:57
because you know like how many hard drives you have is like yeah yeah the
6:02
the the eye two guys like dick measuring content there's the dick measuring
6:06
contest on the forum of like the who has
6:09
more storage basically there's a whole thread like the 100 terabyte club i
6:12
think i think so yeah yeah so that is uh that is that's funny
6:17
absolutely a thing like he i was uh did
6:21
you get to do any stuff in the mocap room i didn't get to actually do mocap
6:25
okay yeah but they were doing a shoot while we were there oh cool and their
6:29
mocap room is freaking oh it's awesome awesome it's
6:32
super and uh two of the guys that like i don't want to give away everything from
6:36
the video yeah i will talk a little bit about the mocap room so it's got 39
6:40
cameras um and these are high frame rate cameras
6:44
although they said they usually record at 60 FPS actually this i didn't put in
6:48
the video because there was there was so much i left so i had eight pages of notes
6:54
that to get down to what would typically be a script uh for us which is usually
6:59
about one and three quarter pages yeah um i had to i mean obviously i had to
7:03
cut i had to cut cut cut cut so uh this was really cool so those cameras they
7:07
have are fully capable of 120 FPS
7:10
capture um or even higher and what they
7:13
but what they do is they capture at 60 because they were saying that actually
7:17
you end up throwing out a lot of that data anyway
7:21
when you're giving the mocap data to the animators because it's for a video games
7:27
and we're giving it to animators so
7:30
if you need to create frames in between an action
7:34
you just do that yeah that makes sense like these are just
7:38
these are just data points that the ARM follows along it's
7:41
interesting to have a model that's gonna just you know run it however many frames
7:46
per second it runs that uh i want to talk more about it but maybe we'll wait
7:49
until people have seen the video sure yeah there's a few more things i want to
7:53
talk about but i don't know like spoil spoil things that you very likely talked about i think that video is due out in
7:58
uh about a week and a half so it shouldn't be that long is it a signal i think
8:02
it'll be a simultaneous release on Floatplane and youtube so um
8:06
yeah so that was that was pretty cool that was kind of the highlight of my week and you mostly worked on Floatplane
8:11
stuff i guess this week yeah um i hired one guy who's working
8:17
uh mostly weekends maybe some nights he's hopefully gonna be working on the
8:21
payment processing because it's super bad right now oh man
8:26
so that's really awesome and there's another guy who's confirmed to join
8:31
later next month full time uh i'm not going to be giving much more
8:35
information about those guys because you know probationary periods and all that kind
8:39
of stuff but yeah that's exciting because we need some we need some help a
8:43
lot of stuff to do another really cool update for Floatplane and i'm not going
8:46
to give away who it is but uh because i don't know if this person have you
8:51
talked to him since then uh i wasn't even going to say this person's gender i
8:55
didn't want to give any hints whatsoever but uh there is maybe i assumed maybe
8:59
you assumed yeah
9:03
anyway i mean i don't know what we can assume is that this person
9:08
is human a human person you know and that's all
9:11
matters yeah um so we do have someone who will be
9:15
joining us as the very first third-party
9:19
creator on plane um we are going to there are so
9:23
many guests doing some pretty janky stuff
9:27
to make it happen um it hopefully won't seem janky yeah
9:31
hopefully both team janky but like there's some
9:35
they're like uh basically our cms so i don't know if you guys are familiar with
9:39
the term but it stands for content management system and it refers to like
9:43
the uploading tool that where you also create like your thumbnails and titles
9:47
and and you do like where you manage your content yeah internally we call it
9:51
marching because it's kind of like because i come from retail and so
9:55
it's not enough to just put a product on the shelf you have to merchandise it you
9:59
have to put all the little cool speeds and feeds you have to set a price you
10:02
have to arrange them nicely and that's the way that i see like a description
10:07
and tags and thumbnails so yeah so that's where you like merge your video
10:10
on that or okay so
10:14
in the last week and a half um
10:19
that's not entirely how it's happened because it's been kind of
10:23
been tooled on for a long time but now but what stage was it at a week and a
10:27
half ago not close to ready and then one guy specifically on my team i'm not
10:31
going to call it your name because i don't know a handle for you that isn't actually your name so
10:36
huh and i don't know if you're cool with that anyways but one guy specifically has been working on it like crazy um
10:42
what you guys used to know as cat boiler but is now aj jack's net um because he
10:48
changed his name well it's good he changed his name is highly inappropriate i i'm shortening
10:53
aj jack's net to just ajax i think i'm just gonna call ajax um but he's been
10:59
doing work on some of the infrastructure stuff too i know uh the australian guys
11:02
have had a little bit of a server upgrade so hopefully that goes a little
11:06
bit better in the future and there's some other stuff going on and he's prepping for
11:09
uh the new human entity that will be joining
11:13
Floatplane as well so yeah it's been a
11:16
group effort tps 1980 is upset that i speak like a valley girl
11:20
what and asks when i'm going to grow out of it
11:24
you know i don't think it's how do you speak like a valley girl like you know
11:27
like like you know like i
11:31
i sincerely doubt that i will ever grow out of it if you want the not like
11:37
like this then you're probably going to want the scripted lines which is which is most of
11:42
the uh most of the more professional written reviews but if you just want uh
11:47
me talking like i talked then it's going to be full-on valley girl valley girl
11:52
Linus from now until the end of time some said vancouver is basically like
11:55
valley girls you know
12:00
it's just basically like you know whatever like
12:05
you know it's funny because i only occasionally notice it when other
12:09
people do it because to me it's such a
12:12
natural part of my
12:16
manner of speaking that i i just don't
12:19
even notice it yeah i don't notice when someone doesn't do it i don't notice
12:23
when someone does do it i just
12:26
yeah yeah that's fair wow Linus is begging for likes
12:31
no get it yeah no
12:34
no i like the joke get it
12:44
i actually have nothing i have like nothing to say
12:50
um should we get into topics yeah why don't we get into wait we haven't even ruled the intro but we have to talk
12:54
about the topic no no no that i mean they're all right here they're committed to watching uh verizon mobile no it's
12:59
twirling oh
13:02
it kind of sounded like you said ea shits i mean i mean they kind of they do
13:07
yeah yeah everybody poops i mean they made
13:10
battlefront too so
13:14
everybody poop sleep including you
13:20
hey we have a new sponsor ninja coffee yeah 40 off that's that's consistent
13:27
yeah and synergy yeah
13:31
and we're back anyways topics we have
13:36
uh ryzen mobile announced that like not like mobile phones we'll get into you
13:40
are determined to do the the highlight topics thing i'm not going to let you
13:44
finish uh yeah shuts down the revive network also gtx 1070 ati wow so you're
13:50
going to go all asmr to try and get them to pay more attention to you and AMD's
13:54
making money whatever whatever you're saying i wonder
13:58
what this is is there two people talking at the same time is
14:02
that a thing you know what there's too much stuff if the thing exists there's a
14:06
subreddit somewhere that's interesting
14:11
i wonder if there's like a a yeah let's
14:14
let's just use the term subreddit for now sure i wonder if there's like a
14:17
subreddit dedicated to just like people talking about news
14:22
um oh probably but like not not like
14:26
2 asmr one cup i think that is slash r slash 2 smr no i'm kidding it's not
14:33
i mean someone's gotta make it now right yeah so
14:36
it would shock me if by the end of when show today
14:39
that subreddit did not exist it's a thing when there's sometimes a top
14:42
comment where it's like they link to a subreddit and people are like oh man i
14:46
wish that existed and then people go and actually make it a thing because they're
14:50
like someone someone wishes that it existed i can mod this i can be the mod
14:54
for this subreddit let's go i can be the mod for like a
14:57
two-person subreddit realistically that probably doesn't need moderation so much
15:02
speaking of websites that aren't made yet but should be oh no oh no
15:07
no oh you're gonna be kidding me oh wait hold on hold on i wonder if i just no no
15:12
it's fine i'll do it it looks like it's done um hold on maybe i can go do the
15:16
thing no no no no no i can do it i can do it well it's been has been two weeks
15:20
since this i don't know because i was at twitchcon i don't know
15:26
so yeah it's been two weeks since the luke was wrong meme
15:30
started um so that's the sdi one
15:36
i have to say i'm a little disappointed in the creator yeah yeah there's been an insta there
15:42
there was a squarespace page made
15:45
and initially it was like oh wow this is actually pretty good especially considering the short amount of time
15:50
that was given for it to be created um and then there was a twitter maid the
15:55
guy the guy or girl or whatever i don't know has been tweeting uh there's been a
15:59
discord created there's been an instagram created but nothing has been
16:05
done with it really it's still the same there's even
16:08
the like still the same hold on there's yeah wrong and then coming coming soon
16:14
nothing's been done with it oh
16:18
but i do have fairies i still love this site though is this your channel
16:22
mod 24 Linus was wrong.com and yes it was one
16:26
no check out check out Linux as well when was i ever wrong you know just give it a
16:32
shot just give it give it a little give it a little look oh look at that picture
16:38
who knows
16:41
get notified you can join what does that even mean i don't know to be completely
16:46
honest no is there anything else going on on this webpage oh the joke was that
16:50
you were wrong about pokemon apparently i think there's
16:58
let's see oh
17:01
i didn't know there was a Linus was wrong.com yeah
17:05
yeah oh so i don't know what you're wrong about
17:09
because it neither of the websites have been like updated at all so there's no
17:13
like information or video clips or anything you know what i'm probably
17:16
wrong about they probably are just like you know what it is wrong to be so
17:22
perfect in every way wow
17:25
wow like it's wrong in the sense that it defies reality you know you go on like
17:30
metacritic and like pretend that you're a gamer okay you're
17:34
doing that on purpose now aren't you yeah
17:39
all right so our our first uh our first topic
17:43
wow we are 20 minutes into the show i haven't
17:47
even started talking about news um heck yeah well if you don't talk about any
17:51
news it can't be fake news wow or it's the fakest news of all time
17:56
one of the two news that isn't even news there's nothing new about it
18:01
um rise and mobile has been announced this
18:04
was posted by purina on the forum yeah and the original article here is from
18:09
my friend dr cutress over at anandtech i
18:13
have to say before we start i love these stats i love stats for AMD's new stuff
18:19
because it's been so long since they've released something else and they compare
18:22
themselves to themselves yeah so like it's 200
18:27
faster 128 GPU performance and the funniest
18:32
thing about it is that like the AMD
18:35
fanboys who have for all these years been saying
18:39
that AMD had competitive offerings
18:43
are just like oblivious to the fact that AMD themselves is acknowledging that
18:49
they have a product that is now competitive that is anywhere between 40
18:54
to 400 faster
18:57
than their previous best so hold on a second
19:02
you can't have it both ways yeah and to be clear Intel fanboys and NVIDIA
19:07
fanboys are no less intolerable oh no it's just it's all the same it's just
19:11
poor AMD fanboys have suffered
19:15
in a way that the other two groups have not they're not they're grizzled though
19:19
they've been through some stuff they have been through a level of denial
19:24
that i think would kill any other living being yeah so you could think of them
19:28
kind of like cockroaches or like those little i don't remember
19:31
what they're called it's like a denial nuclear holocaust yeah you're just like
19:35
no no you want me to die how about no no i
19:39
refuse yeah why because rising
19:43
but they didn't know it was going to be called bryson but they knew they were
19:46
going to rise again
19:50
i it's so funny because like even right in the name of the product
19:55
it's rising it's like AMD is painfully aware
19:59
of what's going on here yeah man oh
20:03
okay sorry what was the news again oh right okay so mobile ryzen 7 2700u with
20:08
vega 10 is a quad-core chip 2.2 base 3.7
20:13
gig turbo that is freaking awesome it would have been more impressive if Intel
20:18
hadn't also launched their u-series processors quite recently with quad-core
20:23
uh with uh with quad-core designs um but
20:26
at 15 watts man
20:29
zen is looking like it scales down really nicely to these lower power
20:33
envelopes um that's cool man see what else they've
20:37
got zen plus vega that's another thing too is vega might not look particularly
20:42
power efficient in the rx vega 56 and rx vega 64.
20:48
but what you know if you talk to industry people off the record what they'll say
20:53
is that well you know don't judge vega based on the
20:56
products that it's in vega is very efficient
21:01
if you actually scale down the voltage and a lot of what's like i know so it's
21:06
like it's overclocked basically yeah and pretty much every chip company for a
21:09
while now has been going really hardcore in the whole bring the temperatures down
21:13
make it more power efficient category but where it really matters for me is
21:17
mobile stuff mobile laptops mobile phones and if they're going to be really
21:22
efficient with those types of things then awesome are you actually looking at
21:25
these are so funny okay hold on hold on hold on
21:28
okay
21:31
anantech has those like ads from around the web ads now they're terrible and
21:36
these are some of the worst i have ever
21:39
seen oh check out that chiropractor trick
21:42
hold on hold on hold on from the web
21:45
canada market failure thousands of iphone 7s for only five dollars okay so
21:51
i'm gonna stop you right there that
21:54
is a plus and that is not a phone at all that is
21:58
airpods okay and this guy no i don't remember
22:01
him i don't remember anything i bet i can get i bet i could not gasp also this
22:06
is one of those ones where like when it's really small like it could look
22:10
kind of like two people doing stuff or whatever it does
22:14
when it's up big you're just like there's no way a chiropractor is like
22:17
yeah that's like not the simple trick that they want you to do look at this
22:20
granny rich diet means nothing to ungrateful children
22:26
she looks badass shopping site where you only pay if you win i think that's every
22:31
shopping site ever yeah you win when you buy the thing yeah and that's when you
22:35
pay yeah you pay when you win you win the prize is the thing you bought yeah i
22:40
think like maybe i'm missing something here anyway
22:44
um that's really glamorizing shopping but
22:48
yeah you win
22:52
you win you gave me a lot of stuff but i'm giving you hopefully an equivalence
22:56
back in terms of a product hooray
23:00
shopping um so anyway there's some pretty cool
23:03
designs coming with ryzen mobile hp has an nvx 360 coming with the 2500u uh it's
23:09
gonna have up to uh 512gb SSD or one terabyte hard drive 15.6 inch display up
23:15
to up to eight gigs of RAM what what is this product yeah really what why does
23:20
it wait what who delivers a product that only goes up to eight gigs of RAM
23:25
today and it's like slim and sexy it's an envy
23:29
it's like hp bought that brand like how many of you are even have been
23:33
around long enough to remember voodoo pc i do i remember okay like we had one
23:38
they bought that brand and then just had they gave rally to my family
23:42
a bunch of money for it
23:46
and then he just completely disappeared off the face of the earth no they made
23:49
him a vp for a bit and then like and then i think he did got rid of him
23:52
because i don't but i feel like that had something to do with i'm
23:56
assuming i have no idea no rumors
23:59
nothing this is just pure science i'm making assumptions too i'm assuming that it was based off of like a vesting
24:04
something or other oh right there was probably like a guarantee investing
24:07
shares to some degree so he had to they wanted him to come on as like advisory
24:11
for a little while yeah before he took off and that was probably part of that they just had no idea what to do with
24:16
that brand and now it's a laptop with eight gigs of RAM um
24:20
the ideapad 720s actually this is a weird one too uh up to a ryzen 7 2700u
24:26
run single channel memory which we already know is it doesn't say
24:30
how much it's not that optimal for ryzen um
24:34
up to a one terabyte SSD so that's a purely solid state option maybe acer is
24:38
going to get it right to eight gigs up to eight gigs up to 256 gig SSD this is a super value
24:43
product i mean maybe i'm missing something here but why are we
24:48
um okay this acer one wants to take
24:52
advantage of larger turbo modes
24:55
memory will be dual channel with even even ian although the system will only
24:59
support eight gigs yeah what's going on so it looks on paper
25:05
like ryzen mobile should be pretty competitive i mean at those base and
25:08
boost clocks this thing should perform pretty well
25:12
but you can usually configured before
25:15
benchmarking something you know how good something's going to be because you got
25:18
to understand like partners like an hp or adele or you know
25:22
like a game studio when you're talking about something like a
25:26
development kit for a console like they've got access to the hardware or
25:30
some approximate equations
25:34
quite some time yes it did they're so cool um
25:38
so usually you can tell how good they think something is
25:42
by the kinds of designs they're planning to integrate it into so this doesn't
25:45
give me a lot of confidence for ryzen mobile but um hey i'd love to be wrong
25:50
uh there's some good AMD news uh maybe we'll do that as our as our next topic
25:54
here before the uh hold on where's the
25:57
other AMD news yeah before we do our sponsor spot someone said it's an ultrabook most won't need 16 gig also it
26:02
uses more power it uses so what the razer blade stealth has shipped with 16
26:06
gigs of RAM for two generations now marginally more power and i think a
26:11
surprising amount of people actually do use that memory a lot of people are trying to watch i didn't see the
26:16
resolution of the screens but a lot of people are trying to watch like
26:19
fairly high-res netflix content which uses good memory a lot of people have
26:23
you won't be running 4k so there's that because right now that's limited to
26:27
Intel processors as far as i know yep
26:30
so get wrecked on that um yeah i mean
26:34
but yeah lots of youtube tabs in chrome and a netflix tab in chrome and facebook
26:39
and reddit is going to really slam your
26:42
memory pretty well this is while streaming like i'm not actually even doing anything right now and i've
26:46
already got six while streaming off a different pc yeah off a different pc so
26:50
this computer actually just has like actually like nothing going on well okay
26:55
to be fair to you so you have quite a few things up here but like the
26:58
teamviewer thing is not connected it's not doing anything yeah um one of those
27:02
things is notepad one of those things is paint yeah paint one of those things is
27:05
sharing share x which is not doing anything right it's also just telling me
27:08
there's an update which i don't want because it already does everything i need the skype one is not connected no
27:13
it's just kind of sitting there yeah it's not no it's not signed in even it's
27:16
not even okay i'm not even sending it because i don't have a sign in one of those filezilla don't open that one um
27:20
but like that's not connected to anything some seven zip tabs aren't
27:24
doing anything audacity okay i don't like carpet open there's a lot open but
27:27
none of them are doing anything yeah and i so i can easily like make myself
27:31
suffer with the gram oh my oh i'm so excited about the new gram but that's
27:35
the issue is these designs are competing with the new
27:40
gram so my new gram is coming i think sometime in the next couple weeks and
27:44
it's got a quad-core Intel processor 8th gen um and it's got 16 gigs of RAM
27:49
that's standard now so when you were competing with last gen
27:53
designs like this one that was fine that was your very last gen view when you
27:58
have to compete with new ones then it becomes a bit of a problem so i'm not
28:01
really not sure what they're trying to do here
28:04
um in other news AMD
28:07
is finally making money
28:11
what so this was originally this is way
28:15
cooler than it seems i know as like uh a consumer you might be like hey i don't
28:19
really care man but like no but it matters that's really important it matters a lot this is posted by doc swag
28:24
on the forum the original article here is actually from AMD's own site
28:28
and check this biz out what
28:32
on 1.64 billion dollars revenue so you compare
28:36
this to last quarter that is a really hefty uplift that looks like about 25
28:41
uplift over last quarter and uh
28:45
a little less than that over the same quarter the previous year
28:50
um operating income though is 126
28:53
million dollars gross profit with a net income so that's excuse me after
28:58
expenses of 71 million dollars now to be
29:01
clear this is still seven cents per share um so it's not like
29:06
you know all of a sudden AMD is going to be you
29:10
know throwing hookers and blow parties at their headquarters or whatever
29:14
but um hey
29:18
this is a really really good thing for the pc industry in
29:22
general so what a weird way to write that they beat expectations oh what's up
29:26
they just like negative is just brackets they don't
29:30
want to put the negative symbol no that's normal brackets yeah oh yeah
29:34
that's a it's an accounting thing i don't i don't know why that's odd but
29:37
sure but yeah so operating income was 126 million compared to an almost 300
29:42
million loss a year ago um and net income was 71 million
29:47
compared to a net loss of 406 million a year ago it's amazing they survived as
29:52
long as they did it really is they had to sell everything they sold their fabs
29:56
you know they sold their hq right yeah yeah like they don't actually own their
29:59
headquarter building anymore like they had to like like monopoly style man they had to
30:04
mortgage boardwalk and then somehow climb back which is like
30:09
really hard to do in monopoly
30:12
and in real life yeah um so average sale prices for gpus went
30:18
up significantly um yeah i don't know
30:22
that cryptocurrency really would have helped AMD sell the gpus for much higher
30:26
so i'm not really sure where that comes from but but vega has a higher asp than
30:31
their previous flagship polaris and well
30:35
they're not getting the cut from the average sale price the GPU is going up
30:38
but it does mean that stores are like please give us more yep which is a good
30:41
position to be in so high volume um and this quarter was especially
30:46
strong in enterprise embedded and semi-custom so that would be uh stuff
30:50
like oh i don't know maybe the upcoming xbox one x yeah
30:54
very cool and this is weird like i actually this our last point in the
30:58
notes here was one that i went and i looked up for myself um without actually
31:02
knowing that it was already in the notes but AMD's
31:06
they beat their earnings um guidance
31:10
and then their stock dipped
31:15
that's different yeah
31:18
like why are you mad that earning money
31:27
i have no idea yeah meanwhile like you know bitcoin has gone
31:31
up by whatever yeah you you have some bitcoin
31:35
i have some bitcoin yeah all right well
31:39
yeah for you i i expect it like i don't know
31:42
there there's there's the one side of things where it's like bitcoin is
31:47
like the the internet video to tv
31:52
and like blah blah blah like this is this is gonna like completely rule the
31:56
world like all this like super hardcore crowd and then there's people that are like uh
32:01
nope yeah so like until i can buy a grand
32:04
slam breakfast at denny's with bitcoin
32:08
once it gets to that point that will be insane yeah and then it's like because
32:13
it it has staying power in very weird ways right now but it also has some big
32:17
issues like that fork it's potentially like
32:21
it's it's intense it's a scary thing because it's a hobbyist thing right now
32:24
like yeah normal people can't be running around dealing with oh
32:28
like you know oh you know my currency
32:31
my currency is uh you know this this is gonna this is gonna like
32:36
fork and then instead of fifty dollars i'm gonna have 25 dollars and 25 doll
32:43
hairs yeah one thing one thing that's and then and then one of them might go
32:48
up and one of them might go down so i have to like make i have to be following
32:51
the news i have to make a bet on which one i think is gonna be the one that
32:56
goes up but then there's also there's also huge benefits that are happening
32:59
for it where like uh smartphones now carrying your standard credit card and
33:05
being able to tap to pay yes is naturally extremely easy and already
33:12
happening for bitcoin right
33:15
so like the the normal financial institutions going like hey we want to
33:19
modernize and do this thing already works for bitcoin so it's not weird for
33:23
consumers to switch to that so like there's i don't know it's a very weird space it's really fun to follow that's
33:28
why i have some and to be clear i don't have some bitcoin as in like a few whole
33:33
bitcoin i have like some not
33:39
well now that they're worth like almost 6 000 us dollars who knows that could be
33:43
a lot of money yeah i just yeah like i don't have a huge amount in it i just
33:46
have a little bit i'm uh i'm basically like playing with
33:49
it i'm doing it for fun right yeah i'm mostly doing it for fun i've made money
33:52
which is great but like not but you also have to like you have to think of it
33:56
right now as gambling pretty much that's pretty much what it is i
34:01
basically see it as spending money on a really expensive hobby yeah yeah and if
34:06
you do it for so so look i don't personally gamble
34:10
at all yeah i don't need it i have never put a quarter in a slot machine i have
34:14
never walked up to a life jack tape two quarters in a slot okay because they
34:17
were american quarters i didn't know what to do with them so i don't gamble
34:20
and i did it illegally because i was under age that doesn't mean that you can't gamble
34:26
responsibly if you if it's fun for you
34:29
to get the rush of playing the game and you go look the experience of
34:34
being in the casino and having people around who are also gambling there is
34:38
someone that works here yeah that gambles in a very healthy manner yeah
34:42
and is that that has a 500 value to me
34:45
and if i lose it all then i got my 500 worth and if i win something then i'll
34:50
celebrate and i'll go buy a nice dinner you can gamble responsibly and as long
34:54
as you approach bitcoin in that manner i think that you can not totally screw
34:59
yourself okay here's my 500 and i'm gonna make a hobby out of
35:02
following the news and now i've got some skin in the game so it's kind of like
35:06
it's kind of like betting with your friends on a sports game yeah and like
35:09
one thing that you can do is like oh you see it do something trendy
35:13
and you're like okay i can cash out here for a certain amount of time because i
35:17
i believe that it's going to go up a little or it's it's going to maybe go
35:20
down for a second then i'll buy it and then i'll buy a little bit more with the money that i cashed out with and then
35:25
it'll go back up so now i just like increased my own investment off my own
35:28
investment so you can do fun things like that so you're not even putting more
35:31
money in it just takes a little bit more work and there's like transaction costs
35:35
you have to factor that in like it's it's just kind of a fun thing to follow
35:39
and pay attention to Jake got really into it i was hanging out with Jake and
35:42
i'm like okay well if we're gonna talk about this all the time anyways i might
35:45
as well just and then it's been fun i actually i've
35:48
been i've been enjoying it it's cool um speaking of enjoying things
35:54
i enjoy telling you guys about freshman yes so freshbooks

smartarts to quote one of my favorite online creators of all time to

the pc on a mac on mobile you've got the full
36:54
capabilities of the platform on your Android or iOS device and you can try it
36:58
out for free over at freshbooks.com when oh i have different talking points
37:02
in there freshbooks.com and uh you can claim your free trial
37:07
there just put Linus tech tips in the how did you hear about us section
37:12
next up we've got synergy
37:16
so do you have the supremely first world problem of having too many computers oh
37:20
no and too many keyboards and mice plugged into them oh wow i mean it's
37:24
legitimately a problem like a lot of people have very good reasons for having
37:28
multiple computers yeah maybe you prefer to do your development in a Linux
37:31
environment or an os 10 environment but you want a game on your Windows computer
37:36
well synergy lets you use just one keyboard and mouse across all those
37:40
devices it is cross-platform you just whoop drag your mouse onto the other
37:44
screen you just set it all up within the software they've got just like this grid
37:48
you set up where all your screens are and you can even do more than just
37:53
switch which one you're using you can drag and drop files between the
37:56
computers you can share the clipboard between the computers you can set up
37:59
hotkeys and much more the basic option
38:02
does not include encryption while the pro one includes encryption for the data
38:07
being passed between the computers so you can use our link in the video
38:10
description to save 50 on synergy and sorry go ahead someone said dual boot
38:14
bro wow not the point the point is that you
38:18
can use both of them at the same time yeah they can both be on if you want to
38:21
check out a retro video um look up
38:25
what would it be called luke's mineral oil pc um oh
38:30
yeah i'm pretty sure does that i don't know that word it's called oh a slick
38:33
oil cooled pc yeah just drop it in the chat if you check that out i have two
38:37
keyboards two mice two monitors two pcs because i have everything split up and
38:42
if i had realized this was a thing back then that would have been really helpful
38:45
yeah and i mean another perfect example is if you have something like a render
38:49
box yeah a render box like my main one that i tell people is if you have a
38:53
laptop that you use for work yep you can take it home dock it when you get home
38:57
and then go back and forth between two because you can drag and drop files across them everything it's wonderful
39:01
and the docking process is as simple as putting it down next to your computer
39:05
yeah and maybe plugging in power if you don't want it to yeah but that has nothing to
39:08
do with that nothing to do with the keyboard and mouse yeah so pretty cool
39:12
um bringing us to whoa we've got a new
39:15
sponsor

that's fantastic awesome but wait there's more not only is it 40 off but
41:34
you get this awesome giveaway opportunity um
41:38
speaking of things that are awesome this was posted by fushi on the forum
41:43
ea has shut down the revive network
41:52
that's actually not awesome at all no no actually this is kind of trash
41:58
so you know how the gaming community went through this
42:03
whole thing where dedicated servers
42:07
started disappearing you know dedicated server software that came with the game
42:13
that you could run and set up your own private server that other people could
42:16
join those started disappearing in favor of the publisher
42:21
actually running their own servers that everybody would connect to
42:26
and the argument for this was that oh we are simplifying the process and we are
42:31
increasing the general quality of service for gamers um and we are
42:37
creating a more consistent experience with consistent rules and map rotations
42:42
and blah blah blah blah blah whatever the matchmaking is a big argument that's
42:45
being made for it yeah um
42:49
but the problem that a lot of the advocates for private servers brought up
42:55
was that well hold on a second like realistically
42:59
you know ea is not going to want to run
43:02
um you know okay what would be an example
43:05
of uh
43:08
okay so let's say battlefield 2. sure ea is not going to run a want to run
43:13
battlefield 2 servers when there's like you know maybe a few hundred people left
43:17
playing the game yeah so this is a thing that you're gonna pay
43:22
for you're gonna buy this game and then at some point in the future like an mmo
43:28
it's just gonna expire because it's not worthwhile for ea to keep running this
43:32
stuff and keep maintaining it and you're just not gonna be able to
43:37
play multiplayer anymore so specifically they're looking at battlefield 2
43:40
battlefield 21 42 and battlefield heroes i really liked battlefield 2. so
43:45
one of the big problems was that gamespot used to run uh some of these
43:51
multiplayer experiences and when games by disappeared in 2014
43:55
revive the revive network sort of rose from the ashes as an
44:01
unlicensed and unauthorized way of
44:05
making these games playable online free of charge
44:09
so ea had originally planned to make the older games playable at the time but
44:13
reversed the decision as a result of significant technical hurdles which
44:17
basically i think made the revive guys think that
44:21
they were pretty much good to go but they just posted the following statement
44:25
we will get right to the point electronic arts legal team has contacted
44:29
us and nicely asked us to stop distributing and using their intellectual property
44:33
as die hard fans of the franchise we will respect these stipulations
44:38
and they've been doing this for three and a half years now so they've invested
44:41
not an insignificant amount of their time and effort into making these gaming
44:47
experiences still available um you know
44:51
i wonder if uh fa forever is still around
44:54
so that's another perfect example of um
44:57
of a community driven project to to bring multiplayer back to a game that
45:01
had been abandoned it looks like these guys are still up so this is for supreme
45:05
commander ford this is a little funky experience of fa forever is actually
45:09
very good by the way i played for a little bit i've been trying to figure
45:12
out this pretty much the whole time it says we must ask that you stop throwing
45:16
down ammo crates this is apparently a quote
45:19
seems a little informal but it's apparently a quote we must ask that you
45:22
stop throwing down ammo crates in other more legal stylized terms please stop
45:26
distributing copies of our game clients and using our trademarks logos and
45:30
artwork on your sites it actually has nothing to do with
45:34
running the forums and this is pointed out somewhere else in a comment which
45:39
made me realize that i'm not the only person that noticed this
45:43
revive doesn't seem to be reacting that way so i'm wondering if there was more
45:47
in the statement from ea because that's a very short statement yeah so maybe we
45:51
didn't get the whole thing but basically all they're saying is don't make it so
45:55
you can download our clients i'm sure people can find another way around that
45:58
yeah um and
46:01
don't use our artwork and logos but like i'm sure you can find
46:05
ways around that although it might be a little bit of an issue
46:09
um where's the where's the thing
46:14
trademark that might be a bit of an issue because saying battlefield 2 on
46:18
the site might be a problem yeah
46:21
well yeah it is a bigger statement overall yeah it's not that much bigger
46:24
though actually uh yeah there's not much else more here
46:28
that doesn't go this way um yeah so honestly
46:33
this is one of those like crappy legal things where at the end of the day
46:38
totally get why they have to do this okay uh hold on a second kid ultra 13
46:44
i i should just ban you from the chat let the old online games die and buy new
46:49
ones what's wrong with that hopefully you're just trolling i
46:52
sincerely hope you're just trolling but yeah i don't know no it's probably
46:56
it's probably fine no one could be that stupid so
46:59
it should be okay okay yeah well we'll just leave it probably trolling and i
47:03
can respect trolling more than i can respect thinking that
47:06
um yeah they're our sponsor today yeah i
47:10
know yeah why don't you just drink it on camera how much did they send i've seen
47:14
everybody drinking this stuff drinking what a nice refreshing madrinas
47:20
you're off camera yeah you're too tall
47:24
now you're behind the mic everyone gets it it's okay
47:35
oh boy that was awesome uh anyway
47:39
so that sucks a lot um yeah i like i totally get why it's happening
47:44
and they're like actually right today but they're only
47:49
right today because they were wrong years ago
47:53
and they wasted it yeah they didn't provide
47:58
server software for people to set up their own private servers and instead of
48:01
doing it this way they could have found some legal way to sanction these kind of
48:05
things yeah well well what they would have to do is they would have to release
48:08
the server software but yeah because it contains all this matchmaking crap and
48:13
all this other stuff that a traditional game server wouldn't have it probably
48:18
contains a lot of ip that they are actually still using today and then yeah
48:21
proprietary that's fair so they actually like can't do anything now they have to
48:26
protect the trademark otherwise they risk not being able to
48:30
defend it in the future and
48:34
they can't release the server code
48:37
so but like there's got to be another way
48:40
again they don't specify that they can't run the servers
48:44
right they don't want the trademark being used they want the logos being used they don't want them to distribute
48:48
copies of the game you can stop distributing copies of the game people can figure that out on their
48:53
own no distributing oh okay description no distributing copies of our game
48:57
clients yeah so they can stop doing that okay people can find a way to get a copy of
49:02
the game so let's let's if they're going as far as finding this site i'm sure
49:07
they'll find a way to download a like non-cracked version of battlefield 2.
49:13
um i'd still have a battlefield 2 key
49:17
somewhere yeah
49:20
never actually played that i'm sure there are websites on the internet where you can find the like iso file for an
49:25
uncracked battlefield 2. in other news
49:29
the NVIDIA gtx 1070 ti
49:32
looks to be taking the fight thank you rs technica to rx vega 56 at 450 bucks
49:39
specs of this thing actually look pretty good 2432 cuda cores eight gigs of gddr5
49:46
so it's the cheaper gddr5 not gddr5x
49:49
256 gigabytes a second memory bandwidth okay cool and it is yes overclockable so
49:55
you will see custom designs coming from partners like ASUS
50:00
uh so yeah the the rumor MSI i'm happy
50:04
we very clearly pointed out as being a rumor of these being not overclockable
50:08
was not true yeah that was made very clear in the press
50:11
release uh there's some funky stuff going on
50:14
though from source ryan ryan ryan schroed sorry here's our
50:20
source he told us that fire from pc perspective sorry man yeah ryan shrout
50:25
uh there's some funky stuff going on apparently partners are not allowed to
50:29
bin their gpus um but off the record
50:35
some board partners assure that they will be banning gpus so
50:39
that's going to be interesting the other rumor is that partner cards will not be
50:43
overclocked out of the box yeah so it'll be up to the end user to overclock it so
50:49
what this looks like to me is NVIDIA
50:52
making if all this is true is NVIDIA making an effort to avoid cannibalizing
50:58
1080 i guess because this this card spends being able
51:02
to overclock above it like this thing's got 500 more cuda
51:07
cores than the gtx 1070 this is a much much fatter GPU they're drastically
51:12
different it's thick you know thick that's what the kids say right t-h-i-c-c
51:16
yeah do they spell it or is it just implied
51:19
thick no they say thick but if you're typing it out like through a text
51:22
message or something it's t-h-i-c-c okay why
51:26
i don't know too old okay uh so this was posted by hawk on the
51:30
forum the original article is from tweak town Intel has announced their next-gen
51:35
optane SSD the 900p
51:40
and i'm going to pee myself because this thing is
51:45
the biggest deal to happen to ssds since
51:48
like the x25m potentially i haven't actually tested it
51:52
myself i haven't actually used one but right now the u.2 form factor so this
51:57
guy right here is available at 280 gigs i like you not too and the add-in card
52:02
yeah Intel has not abandoned it apparently no one else is supporting it
52:05
but Intel's like yep nope we're doing this um because i guess it lets them
52:08
reuse their server designs and the ports aren't going away on high-end boards
52:12
they're still there and it it pulls it off the board yep m.2 and PCIe they're
52:18
fixed on the board being able to have way more stuff pulling off the board is
52:21
also good and this adding card is available at 280 and 480 gig capacity
52:26
points it looks good boy it looks pretty good
52:30
like it doesn't have the really sick skull which yeah i've always been into
52:35
that the digitized skull was super cool the skull trail skull but like it it
52:39
looks sharp i like the i like the black but like hopefully the back of it isn't all like
52:44
scratched up like that one SSD yeah oh my god
52:48
nothing looks so good you know how much debate there would be
52:52
at a company as corporate as Intel about using something like this on their
52:56
branding because like you got to remember too like north american culture
52:59
yeah skulls and flames it's cool whereas
53:03
like i'm pretty sure that in at least some parts of asia
53:06
it's this is like putting a big bad omen on your on your
53:10
product yeah it's like looks basically
53:13
cool though and it's weird because i don't even generally like skulls
53:17
like remember remember when we were not not i wouldn't say growing up but like
53:21
teens there was all the like people had there was a clothing with skulls on it
53:25
was like totally in fashion you know what i think i was a little older than
53:28
you probably yeah but not by a time because like like late teens early we
53:32
had bum equipment and no fear yeah
53:36
no i had that too
53:39
but remember no fear is that still around i don't think so i there's a
53:43
picture of me wearing a no fear like mesh shirt that's terrible um it's you
53:48
remember those but like slightly see-through and it was only slightly
53:51
see-through from like here up because like those were awful don't show the
53:55
nipple but gotta have that see-through it was awesome man
54:01
oh man no way no fear is still around
54:04
sort of actually i don't know if that's stylized the same
54:08
i miss i so i used to have a no fear hat it was black
54:12
and it had the eyes on the uh
54:15
uh just above the snap no i don't have my no for your hat anymore i loved my no
54:19
for your hat when did you had the eyes here and then it was no fear on the back
54:22
when did you stop having that oh no i have my stupid gecko hat that's probably
54:25
the one you're thinking no no i know that happened when did you stop having that before i met you oh weird oh yeah a
54:30
long time ago wow i've seen a picture or something
54:34
yeah there's not much no fear not much no fear was huge but at one point in
54:38
time like probably i'm gonna guess i was in like grade 10.
54:43
skulls were like totally a thing right just like black fabric with white skulls
54:47
on it was totally thing and i was always like that's so stupid it looks you're not edgy it looks dumb i don't know what
54:52
you're doing you're not edgy like it just wasn't that's the ultimate burn
54:56
you you know what you're not you're you're trying which automatically means
55:00
you're basically it doesn't work yeah but like that looks the skull trail
55:05
skull though has always looked sick because they found like a classy way to
55:09
put a skull on something which i don't know i thought it was
55:12
really cool all right
55:16
last topic for today we gotta talk about this posted by blue
55:20
chinchilla eating dorito on the forum original article here is actually from
55:23
the vancouver sun amazon wants to let the delivery person
55:27
unlock your front door and go inside your home to um
55:31
the service is called how can you call this a service it's called amazon key
55:36
and incorporates a smart lock give amazon a key to your house because
55:41
who knows what
55:47
what people are gonna do it man people are absolutely gonna do it
55:51
because like honestly this is one of those things where
55:55
you're basically just you're trying to get amazon drivers to get to get
56:01
naruto well applicants to become amazon delivery
56:05
drivers and like if they were anywhere near like i'm afraid to be giving them
56:10
ideas because by and large as far as i can tell most thieves aren't that brilliant but like
56:15
if they have a brain on their shoulders at all
56:20
then what they would do is they would find the squeaky cleanest
56:24
one who is the driver
56:27
and he just cases
56:31
what yep i've heard it before too people are
56:35
absolutely going to do this someone internally is apparently planning to sign up for this yeah and exactly what
56:40
you're saying the driver is going to case the house yeah if there's anything
56:43
valuable in there yeah figure out where the security cameras are what type of
56:46
alarm system they're using what their camera setup is everything and then
56:50
leave and then someone else and then create a list because they're going to be going
56:54
around to like many many houses every day so they would
56:58
just get back in their car pull up the little google sheet on their phone be
57:01
like a or b or c the date they were there like the last
57:06
date anyone from amazon was there to make it a little bit harder to put two
57:10
and two together and then like six months down the road
57:14
you're gonna get hit and they'll know exactly what you have and exactly where
57:18
it is so they'll be in out gone and have all your most valuable things
57:23
get freaking out this is like actually the stupidest thing of all you know it's
57:26
great too you know what's gonna happen and because hold on hold that thought yeah because
57:31
there's another big problem too they don't even need to see where your stuff
57:34
is it doesn't matter they know what you have they know what they don't even need
57:38
to know that they just need to know what kind of stuff you have yeah
57:42
because if you're the kind of person who just like because they're not going to be able to
57:46
just like wander around in your house because i'm sure the smart lock if they have again if they have a brain on their
57:50
shoulders well a camera turns on when they enter yes exactly okay cool so i
57:54
hadn't actually read that far into it but i would certainly hope that there's a camera yeah they see you they're not
57:59
wandering around in your house but you have recordings of every time they've
58:02
been but if they stand in the front hallway and they see you know nothing but like a
58:07
you know dirty old dog bed and like some you know
58:11
soiled newspapers and you literally ordered like a case of craft dinner then
58:16
then you're you're a c you know or you're a d not worth hitting but if
58:20
you're ordering like baller stuff from amazon and you got like a nice home
58:26
you got to be stupid if you think that you're not getting hit
58:31
you know what i'm really excited for yeah amazon key enabled apartment
58:35
buildings
58:40
okay i can kind of being convenient for apartments when they well when they
58:43
build the structure yeah they set up key enabled doors and
58:47
key enabled cameras for every single suite
58:52
i would be less concerned in an apartment far less yeah so that
58:57
i'm i'm actually a lot more okay with it i would be less concerned too not
59:01
entirely off the hook but i'll be less concerned yeah because especially if
59:04
your apartment has modern features like needing a fob in order to access a given
59:08
floor as long as you've got a camera on the
59:11
person that's there the whole time that they're there
59:15
then yeah it's far less of an issue and i was
59:19
kind of thinking it would be cool if you had a double door refrigerator
59:23
so you could come up to like the side of your house and then put groceries in the back of your refrigerator yep so i can
59:28
see there being stuff that it that this kind of idea would be cool for i have no
59:32
interest in randoms coming into my home though
59:36
um someone in chat amazon shed sure
59:40
yeah yeah so i'd be super down i'd put one of these smart locks on like you
59:45
know a dumpster in my you know driveway yeah um
59:49
okay fine so there are ways that the tech can be used but
59:54
the idea of just letting someone go into my house and so
59:57
there are positive security things about not leaving a package outside
60:02
but i don't think that they were overcoming that
60:05
by having someone go into your house yeah so that's that's where i'm at
60:10
um so there are brands already signed on to enter dwellings via amazon key
60:14
including merry maids and the animal caregiver rover.com
60:20
man you know i just this you know what this feels like
60:24
this feels like to me like i'm getting left behind the same way i did when
60:28
online dating became a thing because to me i was like oh apparently uh jeff bezos
60:34
became the richest man in the world today as their stock price surged 13
60:38
to a record high um and he owns 81 million shares so he's
60:42
now worth 90 billion dollars there you go um so i feel like i'm being left
60:46
behind in kind of the same way that i was when online dating became a thing because to me like i haven't dated since
60:51
online dating didn't have a stigma right around it
60:54
yeah um like back when i was in high school meeting yeah it doesn't anymore
60:58
no yeah it's no big no big deal which is like weird late show hosts are talking
61:02
about like you know swiping left and swiping right like it's
61:05
super casual and like celebrities are legitimately on it yeah um
61:11
but when i was in high school it was like
61:14
oh my god they met online
61:18
ew to go 100 valley girl for you guys um
61:23
yeah and it was good you did good for me
61:28
i'm looking at this as kind of the same thing
61:31
like i'm instead but instead of meeting someone
61:35
random at a
61:38
you know away from my home and my my stuff and like my privacy location
61:44
i am like like a restaurant or something
61:47
i am bringing randoms into my house now when i
61:51
hire a a babysitter or
61:55
a gardening service or whatever
61:59
i or usually uh Yvonne yeah that's fair
62:02
interviews them yeah in the same way that if you think about it you would
62:07
traditionally meet a dating partner by
62:10
an interview process like an in person of sorts yeah handshake no look but but
62:16
you get what i mean it is though to a certain degree yeah but we're moving away from that to like
62:22
sort of um you know finding your finding your maid or your or your dating partner
62:28
by you know flipping through the available options and kind of going oh yeah that one's got good reviews on
62:34
you know made swipe maidswipe.com lordy i'm sure it's
62:38
probably a thing
62:43
oh interesting how much it
62:46
cost it can't be available
62:50
because you know that's just going to turn into a fetish site like immediately
62:54
it's available what not even expensive
62:58
madeswipe.com it's only 15 bucks canadian dollars
63:02
no way holy maidswipe.com
63:06
whoever buys that don't just buy it and sit on it buy it
63:10
and make a killing because that is legitimately you get a business like
63:14
that going you get signed up with amazon key there is a model here and you
63:19
actually just clone the tinder interface well you could make like an uber-like
63:24
service for maids yep using maidswipe you could swipe through and they could
63:27
have different rates and different specialties they could be like nearby or
63:30
not nearby they come they clean up different services that they offer like
63:34
maybe this one will do your laundry that domain will like straight up not be
63:37
there for very long that's not a bad idea hazy
63:41
hit it up you need to hire development team to start developing all the ideas
63:45
that i've told you like pop swipe
63:49
it's also maids wipe i mean some of them might offer
63:52
that service i don't know yeah um
63:56
yeah anyway so uh thank you for watching the lan
64:00
show and we will see you guys again next week goodbye same bat time same bat
64:04
channel maids wipe
64:11
Linus the valley girl apparently exists oh no no never mind
64:16
not no one has actually put a website on it yet
64:23
it's available oh no it's not no someone has registered
64:28
it perfect that's what we need uh oh right sponsors boop boop and boop
