was bitching and we're live welcome to
0:03
the lonus tech tips live stream we've
0:06
got a lot of fantastic topics for you guys tonight I think we're going to have
0:10
to move this time permanently because there is just nothing we can humanly do
0:16
to get all of our NCI Tech tip stuff shot get back here in traffic and
0:23
somehow have all the equipment set up by 4:00 it's just not possible it's more
0:28
traffic and you know what it's fun is it would have worked today if I hadn't
0:31
forgotten my keys think about it see yeah I forgot my
0:37
keys today so we couldn't get into the film studio at NC which was entirely my
0:44
fault and then we had another panic moment when we actually got back to my
0:48
house because my wife is back at work
0:52
now she was on maternity leave she's back and she um left the house today
0:57
because to go to work and the house was locked I was like oh but it's okay we
1:04
figured out a way to get in and everything was all right uh otherwise
1:08
there would be no live stream today at all which would have been sort of crappy
1:12
all the Badness yeah this morning we had to wait for the Russian to to track down
1:16
the key so I so I call the Russian I'm like I don't have the key for the studio
1:21
I forgot my keys today uh how do we get in and Russian's like oh yeah uh Esther
1:26
Esther has a key um I'm like okay I she's probably not in yet but I'll try
1:31
giving her a call find out how far away she is so the Russian's not not at work
1:35
yet and uh he's like BL yeah yeah get it for I'm like okay so I try to call
1:39
Esther can't get through can't get through can't get through she probably
1:42
had like 10 Miss calls from me by the end of it uh I checked with the warehouse manager no apparently uh he
1:48
gave the only key to the Russian who claims Esther has it so finally I call
1:53
up the Russian I'm like do you know if if Esther's recording like an ad spot at
1:57
a radio station or something like that today is she coming in and Russian's
2:01
like no no she should be in I'm like okay well I can't get in touch with her
2:05
and the Russian like oh well okay I guess if you can't get in touch with her there's a key on my
2:09
desk so this is 45 minutes later I'm like Russian you didn't think to maybe
2:14
tell me there was a key on your desk the first time I called and said I can't get
2:17
into the office
2:22
like guys we were there for like a half hour 45 minutes that that took about at
2:28
least 45 minutes yeah with us just like with all of our gear like sitting
2:31
outside the door of the studio waiting to go in and film unable to actually do
2:35
anything although we shot some pretty cool stuff today not that I'm going to
2:39
give any teasers or hints or anything like like that but uh you know yeah we
2:46
shot some pretty cool stuff today to do with some pretty cool products um
2:51
actually I think almost everything we shot today was
2:56
unreleased uh is that thing uh uh I
3:00
think the new apus are Avail you can buy them but like there's no reviews or
3:04
anything like that so uh so we shot videos about a bunch of really cool stuff
3:08
today and I wasn't sure if it was even out of embargo that's why I was like
3:13
that thing I have no idea it's kind of
3:16
related to Xbox one which is going to be our anchor topic today that's going to
3:20
be most of our discussion today uh it's
3:24
it's either extremely exciting or extremely disappointing depending on
3:27
which side of the fence you sit on on the issue I haven't seen too many people
3:32
who sit on the I'm thrilled about Xbox one side of the fence uh do you know
3:37
where the where the remote control keyboard
3:40
is no okay awesome start yeah we're off to a
3:46
good start um it's not did you check
3:50
here yeah I checked there hey Boll do you think you can try
3:54
and find it do you know what it looks like you don't know what it looks like
3:59
small can't be helping no that's actually not it here slick holds this up
4:03
he's like is this it well I know it's not it but we can use it can we not it's
4:07
just a number pad yeah don't you switch scenes with number pad oh no no no no I
4:12
I need it as like a mouse stuff it's okay it's okay don't worry about it
4:15
don't worry about I thought I thought you honestly thought I could use this as
4:19
like an air mouse No I was like are you high no okay let's just uh let's just
4:24
use let's just use this so why don't we do a little bit of Twitter Q&A just for
4:29
fun fun because everybody loves the Twitter
4:32
Q&A connect all right there we go got to say
4:38
awesome Forum got me a decent gaming laptop and recommendations for lots of
4:42
games Wicked we love the Forum too Luke
4:45
says let's not talk about Xbox one I'm not sure if that's because Luke is sick
4:50
of hearing about Xbox One or if Luke is so depressed by all the things that are
4:55
going on with Xbox one that he just doesn't want to talk about it and doesn't want to think about it well one
5:00
way or another everyone will know sort of um how how they feel about it pretty
5:06
soon because we're going to go through the full pros and cons list of Xbox one
5:09
versus PS4 as well as just sort of our general take on how we feel about all
5:12
that stuff uh Joshua asks how come we got rid of the intro where I fell down
5:16
in the box and then popped out um we've
5:19
needed a new intro for a while it's just it's just dated um and Diesel the intern
5:24
if you follow him on Twitter has actually been tweeting some of the draft
5:28
intros that we're working on right now some of which actually look pretty
5:32
freaking cool so it's yeah very very exciting I have no idea where I'd even
5:37
find that file or I could play it for you guys if you somehow went to his
5:42
Twitter it should be fairly recent um Oh you mean okay locally yeah yeah I can
5:47
just find it locally right because there's his file structure is I think he
5:52
calls it brain wrinkle or something is
5:55
his his file structure is so weird I know it's like that's that's his job
6:00
security like strategy is make sure that
6:03
no one can find anything ever find anything and like the the output file
6:08
for that big project that we did that I can't talk about I don't think is called
6:13
sat sat I'm like
6:16
what why is it called sat
6:22
seriously this guy I don't think you're GNA find I
6:26
don't think I'm going to be able to find it under one channel no no oh yeah so
6:32
there's a folder called one channel for the new YouTube channel design so it's
6:35
got one channel and then there's like three folders inside it none of which
6:38
contain anything and I'm like so are you working on this he's like um I don't
6:43
think so I'm like you created a folder for it he's like
6:48
really well I sure
6:51
didn't awesome uh wrinkling brains there
6:55
it is wrinkling brains General none of those are none of those none of those
7:00
none of those are it at all I really want to show this to you guys though cuz it's really cool there we go rc2
7:16
so yay we should add that one then we
7:19
should remove this one and then we're going to add the media file so give us
7:23
just one moment here it's actually not going to take much longer so this is one
7:27
of the new Concepts that's going to be in line with sort of a more more clean
7:31
overall branding
7:41
seriously so for those of you who enjoyed the um the music that was on our
7:47
build guide we're we're actually reaching out to the same artist to see
7:50
if he can do something a little bit custom for us that'll go along with the
7:54
new intro so so that's really exciting um sham asks how are you liking
8:01
the 780 I think the answer is
8:04
unanimous yeah and not like EA like but
8:08
yeah like it's actually really Beast yeah it's like I mean does it feel like
8:12
a legitimate replacement high-end card finally yeah because it well it's oh
8:18
it's it's almost on oh I don't know what angle to take with this with during my
8:23
benchmarking I was getting like oh wait which numbers are this I just ran Titan
8:27
is this Titan is that was that Titan no
8:30
no that's actually different and that was ran 1 minute ago so that's definitely 780 I mean how upset are you
8:36
if you bought a Titan at this point that was the thing I was stopping myself from
8:40
saying really there is some games where you see like a 5 to 10 FPS Improvement
8:45
yeah yeah we I I think probably the the the typical difference we saw was about
8:49
a 10% Delta or like almost the same yeah
8:53
with like Metro and I think Crisis 3 it was pretty much the same that's I think
8:58
I think those are the ones I know Metro was pretty much the same off by like2 of
9:02
a frame per second which is very possibly not even accurate I mean and
9:06
given that this is one of the most graphically demanding games that we have
9:09
access to at this point in time Metro last Light it's yeah it's pretty cool to
9:15
uh to see how close it is especially given that it's several hundred dollars
9:19
cheaper the only real difference I mean what an interesting angle that an on
9:23
Tech took on it is that well Titan wasn't a gaming card it was It was a
9:29
professional it was like a pro suer card it was like this in between where it was
9:32
like uh you had great gaming performance
9:36
you had full double
9:39
Precision um compute performance but not
9:43
quite you don't get virtualization or any of the other really cool stuff that
9:47
the that the kseries Tesla gpus do and
9:50
that is where 780 does differ is it does it has crippled compute performance so
9:56
there you go I mean Cuda is still going to be fine but you're not going to have
9:59
that double Precision floating point that was that that was enabled on Titan
10:04
so Titan is still this like it's great
10:07
for developers surprisingly cheap workstation card surprisingly
10:11
inexpensive like development card for
10:15
all kinds of crazy Cuda stuff and yeah I
10:19
mean 780 will still be able to perform really well in in like consumer grade
10:23
Cuda applications but when you're talking double Precision it's not going
10:26
to have that same capability and so apparently that that's worth a few hundred bucks and I'd say yeah it
10:31
probably is honestly it could be worth more than that could be worth more than
10:34
that I mean um many many of the press were surprised at how inexpensive Titan
10:39
was given that they had unlocked that
10:42
capability uh have Boll set up the camera every day yeah we that probably
10:46
isn't going to be a problem especially once we move to the new place the
10:50
organizational organization of everything we do should actually be
10:54
better one thing we didn't even take into account is it'll take us longer to
10:57
get to the new place yeah so we'll probably have to leave earlier in the
11:01
day we like have to have it at 4:30 yeah
11:04
and then the stream will have to be 4:30 cuz we're actually already leaving
11:08
pretty early in the day Hugh McDonald says patience I've been sitting on your
11:12
Twitch page for five hours waiting for it to start really sit on the forum for
11:17
five hours yeah go hang out on the then then then do this okay so why don't we
11:22
move into our first topic for the week
11:26
let's bring up the Google drive here and
11:29
wow there's a lot of stuff this week holy crap so this is so for a limited
11:34
time whoops wrong thing actually you know what we should do wait what the
11:38
what are you doing okay I don't know I don't know what scene this is or why
11:42
it's there this is this is a problem so
11:46
uh remove add screen region this screen
11:52
and boom there we go okay but first we should do a word from our
11:56
sponsors yay back in just a moment
11:59
for a limited time only buy an Intel Core I5 or core i7 CPU and get a free
12:04
3mon subscription to iracing.com available from participating retailers
12:09
click the link in the video description for more
12:14
details and we're back after I cycle through all the scenes it's totally
12:17
throwing me for a loop that I don't have my remote control that's just terrible
12:21
uh but yeah so our first our first news item of the week Pizza on Mars so NASA
12:27
has thrown oh this be handy I should move this over here yes so I can
12:31
actually read my notes while I show you the article so NASA has issued a
12:37
$125,000 grant to the same guys that brought us the chocolate printer in
12:42
order to develop I think I mean okay
12:45
saying you know yes we're trying to develop Pizza on Mars is just a way of
12:50
saying that we're trying to develop 3D printable food in a way that is
12:55
nutritious enough and palatable enough and pizza happens to be sorry go ahead
13:00
well if you think about it it's a pie yes so you can have whatever you want on
13:05
it so it's a very good base to start with yes and being able to
13:10
sensationalize it by saying Pizza might bring more media attention and possibly
13:14
even more fun so printing in in Lay I mean basically what makes pizza
13:18
fascinating is the fact that you can print it in layers so you can print the
13:22
crust and then the tomato sauce or whatever tomato synthesized tomato sauce
13:28
or what ketchup I mean h 3D printer that's loaded with
13:33
nothing but like ketchup and okay never
13:36
mind this can't be good um so so the so a 3D printer that goes okay crust tomato
13:41
paste and then like protein layer yeah and then it like it so it's very 3D
13:46
printable so there so it'll be able to print with just one print head and then
13:49
there will also be a heating element involved that could that could make this thing so the idea is that for long-term
13:55
space missions um I I think they're asking for 50 year shelf life for
14:00
anything to take with them and the creators are saying that you could
14:05
expect up to almost a 30e shelf life 25
14:08
30 years out of these powdered components that it would be just kind of
14:13
like add water add oil and get food with
14:17
the Sy syn help
14:21
me nope synthesizer there we go there we
14:25
go um this brings something up that's very interesting I don't know if I've
14:29
even talked to you about this and it's definitely not in our document prep so
14:34
I'll try and oh okay cuz I wasn't quite done with the 3D printed pizza yet no
14:37
we're still on this topic oh good okay car um another thing that I'm fairly
14:41
interested in on this exact same thing like being able to preserve it for a
14:44
very long time being able to consume just kind of one style of ingredient and
14:49
still be okay is soilent have I talked to you about soilent at all no there's a
14:54
engineer somewhere in the states I know he has degrees in a few things um and
14:59
he's come up with this solution called soilent which is a whole bunch of
15:03
different okay I might say some things wrong here because I haven't prepped
15:06
this this is just random stuff that I've been interested in and looked up you're
15:10
okay um basically it's all it's it's
15:14
kind of like the Matrix thing you know that like slop that they eat y it's all
15:19
the stuff your body needs huh and it's in this drink that you is just very
15:24
saturated with water and you just boom and you're fine he's been on it for
15:28
three and a half months I think and he's fine he's lost a bunch of weight he
15:33
feels more energetic um blah blah blah blah like everything's kind of
15:38
improved one thing is it tastes pretty much the same every time but if this is
15:43
yeah the only person on the development so far has been some engineer who is not
15:47
interested by the taste of food and finds meals to be like taxing and waste
15:51
of time so once it maybe gets past him
15:55
maybe someone can inject flavor in it or something but basically there is like
15:59
the solution for what we need for food and one thing that's very interesting
16:02
about it is because it's just a whole bunch of chemicals basically but when
16:06
you break everything down it's all just a whole bunch of chemicals um they can
16:11
be tuned to the diet that you specifically need so say you need more
16:15
iron or something you can just put more iron in it huh so it can be used as your
16:20
food and a dietary dietary supplement at the exact same time so so the the
16:24
application of this is obviously space travel but I was actually it's funny
16:28
that you mentioned that the engineer couldn't be ared to make meals and
16:31
bother with eating cuz I was going to say how much you want to bet that an exp
16:36
like that that sales explode once there's a unit that can sit next to your
16:41
computer because how many gamers if they
16:45
actually didn't have to move from their computer and could just press the pizza
16:49
button would not even bother to go in the freezer take out a Hot Pocket put it
16:54
in the microwave take it out from there and then eat it if you could just press
16:57
the Hot Pocket button game Cher like changes the flavor of whatever and you
17:01
just drink it gameer um I was even thinking I I signed up for
17:06
trials he was doing like applicants to sign up for trials um I signed up for
17:10
trials because what I wanted to do was a 66% replacement so what I was thinking I
17:15
skip breakfast and lunch a lot of the time because I don't have time like I'm
17:19
I'm benchmarking something I'm doing whatever I don't want to go take a lunch
17:22
so I usually skip breakfast and lunch um so if I can just have like a big cup of
17:28
something that I can just kind of carry around with me then I would actually
17:32
have breakfast and lunch which would be way healthier than just not eating
17:35
breakfast and lunch I mean they've tried to do this with like you know protein
17:39
shakes or meal replacement shakes but doing it actually doing and it's
17:43
actually the stuff your body needs instead of protein shakes and meal replacements which are usually not
17:47
actually what you need comment from t23 in the twitch chat take out of wrapper
17:52
Place directly in toilet I mean why even bother why even bother digesting it at
17:57
all um what was I going to say yeah so he
18:01
basically just has these big bags of chemicals and it's super cheap right
18:06
like super cheap honestly it's the kind of thing that I would probably do too
18:10
like I I am one of those people who I mean a lot of people are about the
18:14
experience of food I love food but I don't have the time for food and and
18:19
arranging it and making it look nice and putting it on nice dishes and putting it
18:23
on the table and then sitting around and enjoying it and all these things and I
18:27
mean that's great but like you I'm at a life stage right now where lonus Media
18:31
Group is moving way too fast to sit in
18:34
and enjoy the smell of food like so
18:38
having something like this would be would be absolutely fantastic um so guys
18:42
yeah we'd uh you know feel free I hope you've been tweeting about about this
18:46
topic a little bit and letting us know what you think uh of it because I'm not
18:50
going to have time to take additional new tweets on it Morgan Freeman Morgan
18:55
Freeman is hilarious um I agree with with you I
18:59
suppose apparently he did eat a good meal every so often so so there's the
19:04
thing but that's probably because he desired food not because he needed it he
19:08
wanted a good taste or something print pizzas America America America well hold
19:13
on because I mean part of the part of the issue part of the whole mura meme is
19:18
that you know the food wouldn't be healthy and I think the idea with this
19:21
is that it is healthy yes that's why it's it's not the pizza that everyone
19:25
automatically assumes okay so I don't
19:28
see too many people talking about this too much so let's go ahead and move on
19:32
to our next major topic of the oh crap where's the live stream outline there it
19:36
is all right so next up is EA is
19:40
producing wi games but not very
19:44
many yeah so okay for whatever reason it
19:49
was necessary to have uh their CFO Blake
19:52
Jorgenson clarify this
19:56
and why the CFO is getting involved when
19:59
their spokesman earlier okay go ahead I know
20:02
why it's a big deal I know why they were coming out saying cuz they did come out
20:06
saying they weren't doing Wii games yeah the Wii sales
20:09
hike okay I just figured that out which
20:13
happened first no CU I think this was on
20:16
okay cuz this was on the 21st reported by The Verge okay so maybe it was so it
20:21
was around the same time but uh but okay we'll get into the wi sales hike in in a
20:26
little bit here but um but yeah so so
20:29
they come out and they're like because they said no games in development
20:33
whereas now CFO Blake jensson is saying there are games in development just not
20:37
nearly as many as the other Next Generation platforms that are that are
20:42
coming out so
20:45
um yeah yeah tired it's like left hand
20:51
doesn't know what the right hand's doing is we should just call it EA syndrome
20:54
should just start smacking each other yeah just like
20:58
damn
21:02
it I mean would you buy a Wii U if I
21:06
bought a console I would probably buy a Wii U really okay tell me why uh if I'm
21:12
going to play something like a shooter or something that's very graphically
21:16
intensive I'm probably going to want to play it on my computer okay even if it's
21:20
a racer a lot of racers also come up for computer and I can just plug a
21:23
controller in yeah that's something so many people are like oh yeah I play
21:27
racing games on my console because of the controller I'm pretty stoked for
21:32
Microsoft 1 because the controller looks cool and I can plug it into my
21:37
computer yeah um and then but with Wii
21:41
you get the experience where like okay if I have a whole bunch of people sitting around the TV I probably want to
21:46
play something more fluffy and fun Mario games with that said that was how I
21:51
Justified buying a Wii to myself and
21:54
have you seen me touch my Wii since we've started L Media Group
22:00
technically
22:03
yes like the game console we played not since lus Media Group started
22:09
was that which is like five months now okay yeah yeah no no no I haven't and we
22:13
did and and but I have mine at home you have used your okay okay so the problem
22:18
is just that I don't have friends okay but then I've also used my
22:24
NES and my Super NES and my N64
22:29
okay and then the only reason why the Wii comes out is if someone wants to
22:34
play a new game someone wants to see it or was going to happen didn't know when
22:40
I mean honestly like given the opportunity that they had to change the
22:44
branding of the Wii like given what just
22:48
a catastrophically stupid name Wii was
22:51
why did they call it Wii U like
22:56
really I don't know so I can't answer
22:59
it's just terrible I mean they were also probably scared of breaking The Branding
23:02
too much but then bring it back to NES I mean honestly and still like Wii U I I
23:08
wouldn't use one if someone gave it to me and there's more reasons for that
23:12
than just like casual games versus hardcore games or whatever else I mean
23:17
take the time frame away why because the controller's stupid but don't they have
23:21
normal controllers as well you could still use a classic controller but if I
23:24
was still going to use a classic controller like how many other Solutions
23:29
are there I I mean the whole selling point of Wii U is it's got a screen on
23:34
it the problem with putting a screen on it is that the ergonomics are terrible I
23:39
mean if if I had to complain about something about the Razer Edge which is
23:43
razer's gaming tablet it's a 10.1 in tablet it's that for me with my shoulder
23:48
span with my shoulder width I found I was in a bit of an awkward position to
23:53
use the thing other than that it's a really cool device IPS panel it's got a
23:58
a GeForce graphics card that's much better than anything on board like it's
24:02
actually kind of cool battery life could be better but but for me the ergonomics
24:05
were funny and I found it was much the same with the Wii U even standing there
24:10
in a big box store playing with it for like three minutes I'm like oh yeah this
24:15
isn't comfortable maybe it's just because I'm used to using a controller
24:18
like this maybe I mean what is it well there's there's there's the same thing
24:22
with keyboards one of the purest ideas with keyboards the reason why these kind
24:26
of exist is because the idea is that a
24:29
full width keyboard isn't proper shoulder span so you're adjusting in an
24:34
angle and if you have a 10 keyless you can go straight forward so your mouse
24:38
can be straightforward and your hands can be fairly straightforward except for a pivot here right and then the number
24:43
pad can be on the right side because you're not going to use it much um for
24:47
me that doesn't matter my shoulder span's like what the mous is exactly
24:51
where it needs to be and again for the edge it was fine but then at the same
24:56
time Edge is a little bit heavy so if I want to use it my elbows are planted
25:00
we've got some pretty good debate going on in the twitch chat
25:04
already um about how ignorant the internet is
25:09
and how Xbox one is not just about the entertainment aspect and of course it'll
25:13
be games and it's going to be awesome that'll come out on don't worry it's
25:18
we're going to talk about that folks we're going to talk about that so let's
25:21
move into our next discussion topic because it's already we're already uh
25:25
third of the way through the live stream we've talked about two things
25:28
so this is something that we did want to have a little little conversation about
25:33
so for whoops uh last week uh it came
25:37
out that some of the US regulating bodies are are freezing accounts of
25:41
Mount goau and there's going to be a lot of different uh regulations that are
25:45
going to come in place because they're treating Bitcoin exchanges like
25:50
full-fledged financial institutions so they're putting um
25:54
some basically some roadblocks in place
25:57
such as that they have to adhere to moneya laundering prevention laws um as
26:02
well as things like anti-terror funding laws they have to have a lot of
26:06
transparency the anonymity is going to go away and apparently Canadian
26:09
Regulators according to the article on the register are basically going yep
26:14
come on into Canada yay go Canada um we
26:18
do not see you as uh I forget what the
26:22
actual terminology is but blah blah blah
26:26
blah blah claiming it was yeah so in the as it was they were claiming that mount
26:29
goau was operating as an unlicensed money service business whereas aha this
26:35
letter from the Canadian authorities said the entity your entity is not at
26:39
this time engaged as a Money Services business in Canada as per the proceeds
26:43
of the crime money laundering and terrorist financing and its Associated
26:47
regulations in fact your entity doesn't provide the services of remitting Andor
26:52
transfering funds for the sake of the service the transfer funds is simply a
26:55
corollary of your actual service of buying and selling virtual currency
26:59
therefore you do not have to register your entity with us very very
27:03
interesting so this is I mean it's good news for Americans too because I can't
27:07
think of any particular reason why they wouldn't be able to use a Canadian
27:11
exchange um and you know you'd have the additional trust factor of Canadians are
27:16
awesome no okay guys don't don't put all
27:19
your money in a Canadian Bitcoin exchange because lus said Canadian they might say they're sorry when they steal
27:24
it though yeah so so yeah so that's um I mean all of this is so in flux right now
27:30
the news is coming so fast and so hard
27:33
that you know even if something happens in the US if everyone else just kind of
27:39
goes completely the other way on it the us will have to figure out how to get in
27:43
line so one kind of key phrase segment I
27:47
got from that too though is your entity is not at this time at this time and
27:51
that's the other thing is where the US might have to backpedal Canada might
27:55
fall suit with the us at some point who freaking knows but this virtual currency
28:00
thing is not going away that much is very clear I'm still not putting any of
28:03
my money into it but we'll see I guess we shouldn't talk
28:08
about Bitcoins too much but if you guys are interested in like how Bitcoins can
28:12
actually totally not be profitable at all uh you should probably go post on
28:17
the Forum and figure that out yeah uh so
28:21
this is cool Australian authorities uh used their 3D printer
28:27
technology to print a couple of liberators so this
28:32
is shoot I keep doing that this is that gun blueprint that you know the US was
28:37
like don't download this we are Banning this from the internet because because
28:42
and then everyone downloaded it that is how the internet works America America
28:48
so so there's torrent all over the place for this obviously and so the
28:52
Australians kind of went okay well let's let's print a couple and see
28:57
what the heck happened so there were two results of the two guns that they
29:00
printed uh one of them was a able to fire a projectile I think it was 17 blah
29:07
blah blah 17 cm CM 17 cm through a
29:14
simulated flesh object so that would be
29:18
fatality inducing obviously anything that can go 17 cm into a body can
29:22
probably go through you unless you are a super obese like kind of person could
29:27
you have 17 cm of fat in one place think
29:31
that's slightly more than that actually that's about a
29:34
foot 17 cm yeah yeah you could probably
29:37
have C cuz cuz a foot is a foot or 30 cm
29:40
defitely have 17 cm and what if you get shot slightly on the side or if it
29:44
enters here and goes on an angle yeah okay like it's not going to be perfectly
29:47
straight on but you could kill someone with something that penetrated 17 cm
29:51
into their body you kill someone that penetrates way less than that okay yeah if you're a perfect shot but like the
29:55
odds of killing them you go for a torso shot it's probably going to go all the
29:59
way through so one of the guns was able to was able to fire deep enough for a
30:03
fatality the other one died outright so if you check out the article on the
30:08
register then uh yeah there is a video and you can you can definitely check
30:12
that out it was uh it's very interesting because you know the the US is basically
30:16
going you know oh this is impossible to regulate this is this and this and that
30:20
and it might all be true I mean the future of of personal defense
30:25
weapons could be who who knows I mean 3D
30:29
printers could be consumer grade at some point probably will be consumer grade at
30:33
some point they kind of already are right I mean at what point does someone
30:37
mod their you know okay so if they ban
30:40
resins strong enough to fire projectiles or if they find some way to regulate it
30:44
in some way how long before someone synthesizes and mods a way to
30:50
make their 3D printing Pizza Oven turn into something that can produce a gun
30:54
why not it'll be way too easy like you can't you actually can't because resins
30:58
are so easy to mix as well and they're used for so many other things that you
31:02
can't just ban them out right you can just go to the store and be like Oh I'm buying this resin for whatever take it
31:06
home and print a gun who cares and one thing that's interesting too is it's
31:12
pretty easy as far as I can tell especially in twitch chat suggesting
31:16
they make a pizza gun yes that's
31:19
am oh my God that way if someone's
31:23
hungry and you have the pizza gun you can just like be like well this is how
31:26
we're bringing democracy to the world
31:30
projectile Pizza yeah sorry go ahead you were saying something that was much more
31:34
important than pizza gun imagine you're out a riot and everyone's shooting Pizza
31:37
guns and it's just like pizza everybody needs to just calm down have a
31:43
pizza just calm down at big events you
31:46
know how they have shirt cannons you have P cannons wow so you know what
31:50
here's clothing for all and food for all
31:53
we're going to solve the poverty issue like two guns at a time Tillery Cannon
31:58
pizzas over Africa from ships if you could save if
32:05
you could fire a projectile hard enough
32:08
could you save on the cost of actually shipping things by ocean Freight if you
32:13
created Target zones that you could just aim like aid supplies at and then just
32:18
like okay between this hour and this hour of the day do not enter Because of
32:22
falling projectiles other than that enter Because of pizza
32:28
I think we've gone off on a bit of a tangent here if 9 to five enter free
32:31
pizza if not 9 to5 leave
32:35
death and that you know what that would be the kind of war that I could get into
32:40
is one where everyone's just kind of firing food at each other is like if
32:43
we're going to spend billions of dollars producing like you know sending soldiers
32:48
all over the place you know what why don't we just fire food at everyone
32:51
you'd be the most popular country on Earth last country standing because
32:54
everyone gets too obes yes I I mean it I they'd almost
32:59
need like a revision to the Geneva Convention so it's all like no
33:03
biological warfare no chemical warfare no obesity
33:09
Warfare yeah and because you could roll in with the food weapons and then once
33:14
everyone's too fat to fight back then you roll in with the real weapons you
33:17
clean up yep yep listen America $10,000
33:22
for a patent yeah and even though okay I probably shouldn't be all like M and
33:26
make fun of Americans but technically have an American citizenship am I right
33:30
yep so you're allowed to do it so there so for everyone who's like that that
33:35
that jackass Canadian in his shots at America so I'll just set them up and
33:39
then you can go for for the for the alleyoop for the dunk on the whatever I
33:43
don't know basketball terms that's
33:51
yes oh man moving right along
33:55
uh oh this uh this news for a limited
33:59
time only by an Intel cor out loud sorry about that guys stop uh I keep pressing
34:03
the wrong thing this news item was submitted by Boll so Google is
34:09
supporting the v9 video Codec now
34:13
advantages of v9 so it's no secret that
34:17
we are going to need a new video compression codec we're going to need a
34:21
new compression method with the Advent of 4K which will effectively
34:26
quadruple the amount of of data in a frame okay in terms of sort of raw like
34:31
there are other tricks so okay so so so raw data it will quadruple the amount of
34:36
information contained in a frame of video uh we are going to need ways to
34:41
compress video more and with the way that computing power continues to
34:45
progress along Mo's law we're going to have handheld devices that are capable
34:48
of 4K playback in no time uh where I mean we're going to be limited by how
34:52
much storage we have on these devices
34:56
and we're going to be limited by data rates through mobile as well as through
35:01
just the internet in general I mean if all video on the internet switch to 4K
35:06
tomorrow you'd hardly be able to load a web page there that's that's that is my
35:12
sort of outlandish statement of the day because all the serieses of tubes would
35:17
be completely clogged you can think of it like tubes that are backed up there's
35:23
no anyway so the point is we're going to need uh we're going to need new codex so
35:28
v9 is open source and backed by Google but
35:31
h265 was poised to be the successor for
35:36
h.264 so why do we why do we need these things Cisco is claiming that by 2016
35:42
55% of web traffic is going to be video
35:45
oh yeah which honestly I'm surprised it isn't already I'm surprised it isn't
35:49
more I'm surprised they're not predicting more because video is going
35:53
to become more and more huge I mean you look at the news uh I think it was a few
35:57
weeks ago are they including gaming as
36:01
video cuz it's not basally will be but
36:04
it's not yet which might be why it's lower than we expected but with
36:08
cloud-based gaming which isn't going to hit by 2016 no but with cloud-based
36:13
gaming that would basically be video all
36:16
the processing's done on one side we might be looking if if all gaming
36:20
content was reclassified as video absurd
36:23
this won't be for like ever yes this will be in a while but we could be
36:28
looking at a completely different situation so okay so anyway so yeah so
36:33
Cisco says 55% of web traffic will be video by 2016 and I think that might
36:37
even be conservative given you look at um some of the other content Studios
36:41
that are coming up again going crap who was it was it was it Warner that pulled
36:47
a whole bunch of titles from netlink Netflix's license war was it Warner yeah
36:51
so and then they launched their own video streaming service so you're going to be looking at so much broader of a
36:57
content base that's available to stream online as long as you have the
37:00
appropriate subscriptions couple that with gaming okay the file size has got to be
37:05
smaller because the resolutions are getting bigger and the content's going like this however oh yeah and it reduces
37:11
storage needs for cloud companies as well um actually one of the videos we
37:16
shot today that is embargoed is a storage product that is going to help
37:20
alleviate that but isn't going to fix it immediately
37:24
um careful wrong not the wrong scene
37:29
okay so what are the challenges and when we have when we have a a video Codec War
37:35
what goes down well first of all there's going to be the video nerds like Boll
37:40
who's I'm gesturing towards but he's not actually sitting there there's going to
37:43
be the video nerds like Boll that are going to go okay well I spot a
37:47
slightly uh and that will matter I'm going to be on his side and that will
37:51
matter okay yes that will matter
37:54
ultimately whether one codec gets supported or another codc getss
37:58
supported will come down to image quality and it'll be more than just
38:01
image quality because it's not always about straight image quality I mean this
38:05
is a debate that we have internally here at lus Media Group which never ends
38:10
which never ends I mean it's more for our the entertainment now but how many
38:13
FPS is optimal I would argue more FPS
38:16
equals more information to my eyes per second is better but you've got b-roll
38:22
and Diesel on the other side saying well for the Cinematic field 24 FPS is still
38:26
King a lot of people said Hobbit at 48
38:29
felt uncomfortable even though they weren't quite sure why to which my rebuttal is most of the people who
38:34
realized they were going to see Hobbit at 48 FPS probably knew they were
38:38
watching it at FPS and in a blind taste test with someone like my
38:42
mom she wouldn't have you probably wouldn't have even noticed and the see
38:46
see we both agree on this but we're Gamers so it's we're Gamers not film
38:50
nerds yes so I don't know that might be part of it as well and we're used to
38:54
higher frame rates yeah so one thing that you bring up all the the time is
38:57
the mountain pass shot yes so explain
39:01
the mountain pass shot yes so when you're panning a mountain range okay and
39:05
you have like like the mountains in the foreground and like the the party of
39:09
adventurers you know traveling along probably knows what shot this is you
39:12
know everyone's seen this shot um they had it in what was that last movie I
39:17
watched can't remember Star Trek Star Trek where there's like something in the
39:22
foreground I think it's yes as Scotty is
39:26
coming up on the secret installation uh and he's going he's going around oh well
39:31
you shouldn't be worried about spoilers for me you should be worried about spoilers for all sorry guys spoiler
39:35
whatever someone's going around some Celestial body for some reason don't
39:38
worry about it um and and you can see
39:41
this this thing and it's like CH as it
39:45
goes over so when something's in the foreground it looks so gross more frames
39:49
is more better uh but apparently not the
39:53
actual content makers are going to be the ones who are going to dict
39:58
what format they like and they are so
40:01
tightly involved in the studio with the studios and with the guys that have the
40:06
actual budget and the guys who are going to be guys like Sony who both develop
40:10
content and develop things like Blu-ray standards all of this kind of stuff that
40:15
uh that'll be a huge dictating Factor processing power is going to be a thing
40:20
because it's going to suddenly become much more demanding the more you
40:23
compress something you might be able to maintain the quality you you you might
40:27
be able to compress it down to the point where it's it's it's much much smaller
40:31
but it's going to take that much more processing power in real time to
40:35
actually play back these files and we're not just talking about desktop computers
40:39
desktop computers could probably play play back 4K content compressed in
40:43
whatever the heck you want today you stop but people are going to
40:48
want to enjoy this content on their phones and they're going to want to
40:51
enjoy it over their over their data over their data connection so processing
40:55
power is going to be a thing now there are ways of getting around processing
40:59
power and many microprocessors these days including things like gpus or CPUs
41:04
include dedicated h264 at decoding
41:08
Hardware so when you include the dedicated Hardware what you do is you
41:12
alleviate the power consumption and be by making more specialized hardware for
41:17
it it's much more efficient but that is the biggest challenge of all and that is
41:22
why h264 is not going anywhere for a
41:25
really long time because it is so deeply
41:29
entrenched I mean we are finally getting
41:32
to the point where NVIDIA with the GTX 780 is talking about Shadow play which
41:37
is going to leverage that built-in h264 encoder on the GPU to allow you to
41:43
record your gameplay videos without much of a performance hit h264 has been
41:47
around how long and we are finally fully leveraging the hardware and finally able
41:52
to roll out features across a product line because it's been long enough that
41:56
NVIDIA doesn't have to to go oh and by the way you can only use the latest GPU
42:00
that cost $600 yeah finally we're there
42:03
I mean neither of these formats is even one so I can tell you right now nobody
42:08
is designing hardware decoders for them yet nobody's even working on it not only
42:13
that but the dev cycle and production cycle and validation cycle of all that
42:17
plus the fact that it'll have to be deep in the product line before you can even
42:21
consider using it for anything that isn't plugged into a wall means we're a
42:24
really long way off but either way there you go that's my take on it and this
42:29
story didn't end up going
42:32
anywhere yeah we need a meme of that it's like slick
42:39
h265 why are we talking about this well I don't know I think it's interesting so
42:44
screw you I remembered something while you were talking that was fairly important but I already don't oh yeah
42:47
Shadow play we should talk about Shadow play yes we should talk about Shadow
42:51
play shadow play is awesome shadow play is amazing I'm so excited all I want to
42:55
talk about is that all that's all we I'm kiding talk about okay I'll hold up I'll
42:59
be your van white so basically um not
43:02
just with newer cards it's all Kepler architecture right just anything with an
43:05
h264 encoder as far as I know oh that should go further back wow okay that's
43:09
cool um anything with h264 encoder can
43:12
record 20 minutes of gameplay consistently so you will always have 20
43:16
minutes of gameplay as you go along it'll just remove the old stuff and
43:19
record more new stuff and then so if you find something that you really like you
43:24
can say tab over over and save that shot there's a manual ual mode um but we
43:29
don't know enough about it we don't actually have it yet so there's apparently a manual mode what I'm hoping
43:34
is that while you're going along if something cool happens you can activate
43:37
it but then it'll have the little bit from before as well so you won't miss
43:41
say there's like a really really intense like 2minute firefight but then there's
43:46
going to be a little bit after and you have like a breather where you can reload or whatever you can sit there
43:50
press the manual mode to make sure that you get the whole segment but then you
43:53
have the little bit from before as well like if you could have have Shadow play
43:57
running as a constant buffer like a constant cash 20 minutes then you'd
44:02
always have and you can set how much you want up to 20 up to 20 minutes in its
44:06
current implementation I think that's more just to keep from it taking up like
44:10
too much space running into weird issues cuz I don't see any reason why it
44:13
couldn't be more than that no so Shadow play will be constantly dumping out past
44:17
20 minutes and filling in the new stuff as you go but if you could make it so
44:20
you could be like um cuz Okay the way slow motion works on our fs700 is you
44:25
can have a start trigger which which is like okay something cool is about to happen press the button and then it
44:29
records you can have an end trigger which means the buffer on the camera is
44:34
constantly recording you can go oh something cool just happened boom
44:37
capture what just happened or you can be somewhere in the middle which is a
44:40
middle trigger which records the little bit of time before that and a little bit
44:44
of time after and I think that's what you're talking about where you could have different triggering events that
44:48
would allow you to use and I mean the NVIDIA is not even releasing Shadow play
44:52
at all in its first iteration until sometime in the summer they're saying
44:55
yeah and they're not talking about future features and they're not talking about this but imagine if you could use
44:59
it for live streaming oh my goodness like the whole thing's so cool I know
45:03
there's a manual mode where there's no time cap so if you tell it specifically
45:07
like I want you recording this you can record whole like League of Legends or
45:11
Starcraft matches or whatever and if you could have programs like twitch just
45:14
accept Shadow play as an input oh and it's they're talking maybe a 5%
45:18
performance hit which is enough nothing compared to fraps nothing compared to
45:22
fraps uh nothing compared to a lot of the solutions that are out there uh I
45:27
mean this is this is so cool this could be a game changer companies like a media must be just devastated to hear about
45:31
this where their whole solution is an h264 encoder on a
45:36
card if every GeForce GPU out there is
45:39
all of a sudden capable of doing what that card does a big thing for a media
45:43
though is Tak from console conso console you're right I realized that I was yeah
45:48
console so there's that but their internal solution they're probably not
45:53
too excited about although you can still accept console with their internal like
45:58
I don't know but still yeah it'll it'll probably do a hit they probably won't
46:01
enjoy it I don't think it'll kill them yeah so the I okay so the the Starcraft
46:05
guys might not care but all of a sudden all of a sudden there will be a compelling reason to buy a GeForce GPU
46:10
Beyond just how many FPS you get in Game X or Y because while GeForce experience
46:16
is cool yeah so that's out of beta now so it gives you suggested settings for
46:20
your games and make sure your drivers are always up to date carry on while it's cool I do know a lot of people do
46:25
actually just like playing with their set and a lot of games Auto detect anyways I
46:30
personally prefer to change my own settings and I personally prefer to
46:33
download my own driver because sometimes newer drivers don't improve things yeah
46:37
and sometimes sometimes it it will improve things for a lot of cards but
46:40
not yours or a lot of games but not the one you play those kinds of things so I
46:45
mean yeah uh moving along to our next topic
46:49
we've got ah yes Intel claiming up to
46:54
50% more battery life in haswell-based
46:57
laptops so it's no secret that Haswell isn't going to bring a huge like
47:02
game-changing performance shift on the desktop this is not a conro um because a
47:08
lot of the optimizations are going to be in terms of power efficiency and in
47:12
terms of delivering a better gaming experience on the entry level as well as
47:18
a better graphics experience a better better performance for things that are
47:23
compute driven that use the graphics core such as Intel's Quicks sync Tech
47:26
technology that allows you to uh use the GPU to transcode Media much faster so
47:31
things like that so they're looking to deliver a better overall experience not
47:35
necessarily like oh let's throw more IPC
47:39
at the uh at the problem on the the CPU
47:42
side itself so with 50% what would you do with 50% more battery life in your
47:47
laptop right uh more laptop stuff what what I
47:53
think the main thing is going to affect is Ultrabook
47:57
yeah Mass longevity so if you're in school for 8 hours yes that's going to
48:01
be a huge hit if you game on your laptop but can't always have it plugged in huge
48:06
hit because I know a lot of people that have nice gaming laptops and they're like yeah uh but when I'm gaming it
48:11
lasts for 45 minutes on the other hand haswell's perform haswell's power
48:15
efficiency isn't going to affect how much juice that 68m is drawing that's
48:18
true so you might see if you're going to see help though so I think when Intel
48:23
quotes something like this they're talking integrated GP power draw yeah
48:27
yeah they're talking what can be achieved if you don't have a bunch actually that's one of the things I have
48:31
how I wanted to discuss this is It's not like this is going to be the Beall and
48:35
endall of your laptop that has 4H hour battery life now has 6 hours okay still
48:40
though you can still play a lot of games on laptops that don't have that's true
48:44
especially given that Intel is also claiming this is also in my notes two
48:48
times the performance of IV bridge on notebooks and up to three times on a
48:53
desktop with the new Haswell built-in igpu yeah yes so the way that I see this
49:00
shaping shaping up is okay so this Ultra
49:03
Book is actually I think technically not an Ultrabook because it doesn't meet the
49:07
battery life requirements to be called an Ultrabook if I recall correctly so
49:10
that's why it ships with this extended battery because it only gets about 4
49:13
hours of battery life without the extended battery if this thing got 6
49:17
hours of battery life this is the device Intel's talking about a super slim
49:22
tablet or Ultra Book style notebook or or a convertible that's running Intel
49:28
Hardware Intel L Intel CPU Intel GPU all
49:31
those things they're saying okay yes we can deliver up to 50% more battery life
49:35
with it if this thing got six hours I wouldn't need the extended battery pack
49:39
anymore and so I'm extremely excited not only that but hasell will offer better
49:43
performance yeah yeah which is extremely
49:46
cool um Haswell is also going to get a lot closer to what tablets um what
49:53
existing tablet architectures are able to deliver so the lowest uh Power draw
49:57
Haswell is they're saying seven Watts which makes Beast okay in a wait not
50:04
beast that's Beast seven wats but Beast
50:07
as in well oh well but you see what I mean there yeah it's Beast as in awesome
50:12
but not Beast as in like it's Beast nor
50:15
more power it's Beast as in like Cat Beast not Beast as in like like Cat
50:20
Beast like not bare like quiet and efficient yeah I don't know how
50:23
efficient cats are not very efficient if they were efficient why they need to
50:27
sleep 18 hours a day yeah yeah um I
50:30
don't know where I'm taking this analogy yeah I think I'll just stop why don't
50:33
you just comb it with a brick and we'll call it a day uh so part of what's making hasbel
50:39
more efficient is the fact that it has a
50:42
an on chip power management unit as well as onboard vrm and there's also the fact
50:47
that because it's faster and it has faster internal interconnects it is able
50:51
to spend more time idling and Intel is saying up to 20 times
50:57
the efficiency or battery life Improvement or something ridiculous like
51:00
that when it is not doing anything so
51:03
the more often this chip can be not doing anything the better it is for you
51:07
I mean imagine what something like a razor edge yeah or a razor blade like is
51:12
going to look like with Haswell or even
51:15
the Next Generation where who knows if they 2x the graphics performance again
51:20
what does something like a razor edge you won't even need a dedicated GeForce GPU anymore we talk about a we a lot we
51:25
talk about oh I'm excited for this release of a product like AR drone
51:29
you've brought up more than once I'm excited for version whatever version six
51:33
of AR drone yeah will be silent and
51:36
it'll be like 1080 it record sound 4K whatever and
51:41
it'll have like a 2 km range and like like like the a lot of things I'm
51:46
excited for future versions maybe not way into it right now Edge once that
51:51
platform is matured wow holy Gen 2 gen 3
51:54
Gen 4 Gen 5 holy crap when it's like
51:58
slim and has killer performance and runs
52:01
quiet and has great battery life and like you know what here's my commitment
52:06
right now I will drop $2,000 on a revision of AR drone that
52:12
allows me to sit in front of a computer with like a joystick and fly at POV oh
52:19
on like a field with other people with
52:22
like virtual reality games that like you
52:25
can set it that would be so cool okay if you could have a hardcore mode for AR
52:30
drone dog fights that was like it knocks the other guy's AR drone out of the
52:34
air because there's no safe place because if you're close to the ground
52:39
you can actually have more disastrous crashes than if you're high up and you
52:43
you can control the fall whereas if you're higher up in the air you're going
52:47
to hit that much harder there should be actual projectiles so it can hit the propellers wouldn't that be amazing it
52:52
could be like Nerf or like if you could if you if it if it had sensors all over
52:57
the Drone so that you could actually you could fire I'm firing my laser so you
53:02
could knock out like one motor you should be able to like samis charge up
53:06
so it hits a wider area and then like the pilot could compensate by like
53:10
redirecting less power to this one and more power to these ones and they could
53:13
try to bring it down but you could come in for the kill shot and if you could knock out another motor oh my goodness
53:18
that would be so cool be so cool you can
53:21
knock out their weapon systems that would increase their market share too
53:24
because if you're smashing your a they sell parts y yep yep if you could or not
53:29
market share and if that was like if you could have like a non- hardcore mode
53:33
where it just keeps score but if you could have hardcore mode where I basically go look slick let's go we pull
53:39
out the a drones you take like your laptop or your tablet or whatever you
53:43
hook up like
53:47
your oh my God UL Rift you hook up your
53:51
Oculus okay you hook up your joystick and you go fly against each other oh my
53:55
goodness that would be so cool I mean that'll happen in our lifetimes so think
54:00
about that so St how much money would you pay for that gaming experience that
54:04
would be a stup probably what you would cuz that's insane would you pay
54:08
thousands of dollars for this probably would I'd save up for a long time like
54:12
make sure and I would like come up I would like okay here's my AER drone
54:16
here's my like multiple boxes of spare parts rock yeah I would roll up to the
54:20
field with like my gear and you know
54:24
like the hardcore guy is going to build like like a flight chamber with like
54:29
freaking everything he's going to bring one of those one of those big batteries
54:33
that whoever's making those big like pallet batteries so he can power his
54:37
full station for like the entire day of like flying and like and like you'll
54:41
show up with like your your super organized like your drawers of like
54:46
replacement parts for your drones so you could play hardcore mode all day you get
54:49
taken down you and your buddy that you're just playing with like repair a repair a bar throw it back up multiple
54:55
models of drones so you could have like capital ship drones like nimble capital
54:59
ship think about that oh my God armored
55:02
drone okay armored drone so the sensors the sensors have multiple so so like
55:08
like One sensor spot could take multiple hits before it actually turns off an
55:12
engine you could have scenarios because you could have like carrier drones that
55:16
have a whole bunch of smaller ones and maybe the smaller ones only have a certain flight time before they have to
55:20
go do and then Rego out or they have ammo or something or you bring in
55:23
bombers so Fighters shoot lasers only but if you could bring in bombers that
55:27
are basically slow and need to be defended by Fighters but can drop crap
55:32
on like Capital ships that cause big problems like this could be tabletop
55:37
games but real but on a football field
55:41
think about that that could even get competitive now that you brought up
55:45
football field oh yes like serious comp this could be the next generation of
55:48
Esports augmented reality Esports a that would be so cool so cool and there's no
55:55
reason why if we can if we can build AR drone why we can't build like with
56:00
robotics advancing at the rate it is if you could have
56:04
robotics no you could with the bomber that you brought up I was thinking
56:08
ground combat as well ground combat as well this is the future of gaming this
56:13
is what I will I will I will launch full force back into gaming if once they can
56:17
deliver this experience because screw physics engines honestly why do you
56:23
anymore physics whatever or with physics engines you could have augmented reality
56:28
such that the soldiers could could be oh
56:32
wow you could be knocked over by a nearby explosion that was caused by a
56:38
laser drop by a laser drop oh my goodness that's so
56:43
cool like guys like how exciting would
56:47
this be and the technology is not that far
56:50
away yeah yeah my goodness oh my goodness someone
56:56
says how much longer is this I hope I hope they're talking about the live
56:59
stream and not us just geeking out about this no I think they might be talking
57:02
about how long until that comes out I I don't know but I oh I hope this
57:07
hopefully everyone else is excited we are hopefully everyone else is willing
57:11
to drop as much money as it takes to make this happen uh speaking of dropping
57:15
as much money as it takes AT&T is adding a 61 Cent per month administrative fee
57:21
to wireless bills stands to rake in hundreds of millions from unwitting
57:25
customers uh I don't why does AT&T need more
57:33
money so on Corporation just wants more
57:36
money on the one hand I look at it and I go okay it's 61 cents a month can I
57:41
afford the additional $670 whatever cents a year whatever it
57:45
works out to $7 and whatever but that's the idea but that's the idea no one's
57:49
going to quit or not very many people were actually with and it's only certain
57:53
plans but with 70 million with a 70
57:56
million user install base AMD AMD no not
57:59
AMD AT&T stands to Rak in an additional
58:03
half a billion almost of additional Revenue that they have done absolutely
58:09
nothing to earn from you by altering an
58:13
agreement that you you didn't you didn't
58:16
agree to pay the 61 cents
58:20
um you know what that was all I really had to say about this other than just
58:24
how mad I am about the way that that the
58:27
way that monopolies and duopolies are able to just do whatever
58:32
they want why is this permitted um one thing from windspeed on
58:37
the Forum apparently Australia's biggest Telco charges you $2 fee to charges you
58:43
a $2 fee to pay any bill in any form so
58:46
whether you pay it in the store whether you pay it online over the phone
58:49
anything so there's a fee if you don't pay there's a fee if you pay I mean here
58:55
there probably a fee if you I'm not going
58:58
to there's a fee for Activation there's a fee for Activation there's a fee if
59:02
you leave there's a fee if you stay there's a fee if you pay your bill there's a fee if you don't pay your bill
59:06
it's like well how else are we supposed to pay our administrative fees how about my monthly
59:10
bill what is that paying for because it's not paying for infrastructure
59:14
upgrades that's for sure yeah Australia slow internet yeah man I mean here's
59:20
here's me geeking out again but what if we could have a cloud-based Telco
59:27
think about this what okay because part
59:31
of the problem is we can't lease you
59:34
can't lease Wireless Spectrum unless you're a big player right okay so what
59:40
if people could build little towers on
59:43
their property using a different area of the spectrum and what if a city could
59:48
get together and go look we know that you're basically going to have to roam
59:53
if you go outside the city but if we could get two 2,000 people within the
59:57
city to put little towers in their back Lawns and we could make our own
60:01
cloud-based Network it could be it could run over
60:05
the Internet so it could be IP based what would prevent something like that
60:09
from existing other than the management
60:12
of it management of it okay so management of it um someone would have
60:17
to develop the actual Hardware that's
60:20
involved some has to develop the hardware someone has to manage it is it
60:24
impossible you have to run lines do you have to run lines think you're talking
60:27
about just Wi-Fi right I'm talking I'm talking about Wireless to the tower
60:33
Ethernet but how fast is that going to be how fast is I don't know how fast
60:37
would it need to be with AC becoming a big thing I mean uh well no you'd need you'd
60:42
need some I'm not an engineer okay so
60:45
I'm not technical enough to uh y Wireless y a super long range so
60:50
something like that but that's not super fast as you're getting far out remember
60:55
with AC the range is getting shorter yeah yeah no I don't mean Wi-Fi forget
60:59
Wi-Fi something else okay some other band completely different from that so
61:05
you'd have towers that are separate from
61:08
from what the from what the Telos are using separate from what the consumer grade stuff is there's I like the idea
61:13
Spectrum still I like the idea but it's very utopian it's ignoring security uh
61:19
as the chass said security upkeep deployment
61:23
maintenance uh tons of stuff uh like maintenance is huge but if you could
61:27
have a turnkey solution for security I mean you look at what people TurnKey
61:32
solution for security okay hold on I know yeah I think the Linus Tech tips
61:35
forum is enough evidence of that but if
61:39
you could have if you could find a way to keep TR untrusted people off of it
61:44
okay find a way to regulate where the data is Flowing if you could create
61:48
something like this with a with a trusted group maybe okay so maybe it's
61:52
utopian maybe it's imaginary but I don't
61:55
know you'd have to like have a world where there's no bad people and where
61:59
nothing never the problem is that the bad people are already there and we're
62:04
giving them I'm giving them a hundred bucks a month for my own cell phone I mean with all of that said that's a good
62:08
point as far as Telos go I'm pretty happy with Belle except for how
62:13
expensive it is yeah well except for how expensive it is but they do less to Bone
62:17
the consumer than most of I mean particularly the US Telos and then I
62:22
mean the Australians as well anyway so there that's my uh that's my that's my
62:27
sort of fantasy while while I'm
62:31
fantasizing um One Last Thing Before we get into oh wow we are two-thirds of the
62:36
way through we haven't even started talking Xbox One um in telescope because
62:40
your tactical rifle need totally needed an iPhone strap to it this is an article
62:43
on end Gadget and it's awesome it allows you to peek around corners apply a
62:47
digital Zoom you can record video it gives you a built-in compass and a shot
62:51
timer and I mean the uh I'm sure this is not what Apple had in mind but when they
62:56
created the iPhone honestly we're nowhere near something like this being
63:00
actually practical when the when the delay between the camera and the
63:05
processing and the actual image on the screen is near instantaneous something
63:08
like that could be really cool but yeah we're actually not that close right now
63:13
um so anyway let's get into X you know what I'm going to get you to start Xbox
63:17
3 Xbox one because I need to go find out
63:21
from Boll where that pizza he ordered is because I'm
63:24
starving okay let me get down to
63:28
this so there was a basis for a pro and
63:31
con list that I found on Reddit um and
63:35
I've added stuff to it I've changed things that I don't necessarily agree
63:38
are Pros or that are I don't necessarily agree are cons I've moved things out of
63:42
cons up to Pros I've moved things out completely I've added in my own stuff
63:46
that I found out say an anex Hardware review by the way check out a nantex
63:51
hardware review of Xbox one versus PS4 it's very interesting Xbox One is doing
63:55
some crazy stuff with a caching possibly a caching solution uh PS4 just went raw
64:00
power um I don't think anyone's really going to know the performance difference
64:04
until it's actually released because you can't just go a hardware is better than
64:08
b Hardware because yes we see that a little bit PlayStation's Hardware is
64:12
better than Xbox One's Hardware but then Xbox One is doing that weird caching
64:15
solution that I was talking about before which might not even be a caching solution um it might be a frame buffer
64:20
or something I'm not entirely sure
64:23
but again PlayStation 4 will have better Hardware but it's just how different is
64:28
it so some of the notable pros and cons
64:32
just to jump through here pretty quick is Xbox one will have um feedback on
64:39
their triggers I find that very cool I don't like the I don't know what it's
64:42
actually called but completely free flowing triggers where there's no
64:45
feedback at all I'm not a huge fan of that um constant low power State um very
64:52
fast wake up but it's forced and it's always monitoring this is in both pros
64:56
and cons I'm reading through Pros right now by the way um Pros because your Xbox
65:00
can wake up really fast and start doing what you want it to cons because it's
65:05
kind of always on it's not really a wake up at that point it's literally always
65:09
on it's always monitoring which we will get into later I'm sure lonus will want
65:12
to discuss that a little bit controller seems quite similar again I got the
65:17
basis of this pros and cons list from redhead I'm not this is not my pros and
65:20
cons I added stuff like I said and changed a little bit but this was someone else's I should have cited his
65:24
name but I don't remember it maybe I'll tweet it out later or something if I can
65:28
go grab it um the controller is mostly the same except has a vastly improved
65:32
d-pad I'm very happy to see this because if you guys have watched the Afterparty
65:37
live stream I don't like the d-pad at all it's way too easy to PR press other
65:42
directions without realizing it it's not very defined which is I'm happy they're
65:47
improving that that's why earlier when I said I'm excited for the controller so I
65:50
can plug it into my computer I was actually very serious I will very
65:54
possibly go out and buy one of these controllers even though I'm probably not
65:58
going to buy an Xbox one I'm not going to buy an Xbox one because of this pro
66:01
and con list I had no intention of buying a new console and if I was going
66:05
to it would probably be a Wii U because of the games okay
66:11
so use game fees is interesting I think
66:15
I'm down into bad things again why is that in
66:19
Pros that was not supposed to be in Pros I screwed up there my bad um use game
66:24
fees so no one as far as I know really knows what's going on with this right
66:27
now but there will be fees for used games we're just not sure how much some
66:31
people don't know if you have to pay the entire price again or what so I'm not
66:36
going to go way too into this but there will be fees for used games which I
66:39
personally am not a fan of because I like this small game shop idea I love
66:43
just going around Vancouver going around wherever to small little game shops
66:46
because it's just so cool
66:51
um I must be in cons already
66:56
I am in cons already okay so that wasn't in the wrong spot just the formatting
67:00
got changed I think line has changed the formatting a little bit um connect is
67:04
required to use the console it comes with the console and it's required to
67:08
run on the console all the time again that monitoring thing comes into play
67:13
where you've now got it's always on it's always monitoring and there's always
67:18
video and mic available to be monitoring again I'm going to wait for lonus to
67:22
really get into that Boll gave them the wrong address so I went out there just
67:26
as the pizza guy was on the phone with him trying to find my place so uh I
67:31
brought the pizza you know what for those of you who don't like it when we eat on the live stream I'm sorry but
67:36
today it is just not not an option to not eat on the live stream because we
67:40
are pretty hungry all right what's up uh I actually just finished talking about
67:44
how it's always on always monitoring has a camera and a mic so I thought we might
67:48
as well talk about that so Microsoft has a patent that they just filed for that
67:52
will allow them to use that technology to see how many people are in in the
67:55
room and it looks like create a way for you cuz I mean
68:01
okay so we talked about a lot about content and video streaming earlier on in the
68:04
Stream what if they could charge you per
68:08
set of eyeballs that's actually watching the stream oh my goodness that takes
68:12
away the whole pay-per-view idea of just getting one pay like say you want to
68:17
watch a hockey game that's pay-per-view one dude buys it everyone orders a pizza
68:21
and goes over to that guy's house that completely destroys that yes you might
68:25
still do it because you want to hang out with your buddies but I mean at what point do we end up in an arms race never
68:30
mind pirating content versus paying for Content now we're talking not paying as
68:36
much as they want for the content so are we going to end up in an arms race where
68:40
people okay so first Microsoft's going to be able to detect how many bodies in
68:43
the room and it's not just Microsoft I mean if they if they're patenting the
68:47
technology that doesn't mean they don't plan to license it to someone else or whatever else so find some way to rip it
68:51
off first it's finding out how many bodies are in the room then people
68:55
compens by like I don't know um you know they make couches that your body like
68:59
melds into then they're going to figure out how many to track how many eyes are
69:02
in the room then people figure out glasses that block them and then really
69:06
is that the path we're going to go down well we kind of already are just not
69:10
physical objects it's been an arms race to to hide things and be non-detected it
69:16
always will be 100% but I mean come on it's one thing if you go to a movie theater where you're basically renting
69:21
the space and that was expensive I mean
69:24
they they had to build that building okay
69:28
movie theaters need to make money totally get it but when we're talking
69:32
about my TV that I bought my Xbox that I
69:35
bought my movie that I bought why can't I play it or like if you had to buy
69:41
different tiers of of like like if there was like of the Blu-ray disc for examp
69:46
okay so there's a Blu-ray disc in a store you can buy the single viewer
69:49
license for three bucks although oh if
69:53
it made movies cheaper if you're just going to
69:57
if you bought like the single user one for $4.99 or the family user One for1
70:02
1999 come like really is that where we're going very possibly okay what's
70:06
next um insane though one another
70:10
problem too is uh with stuff I don't
70:13
even know if this is still going on I don't want to get way too into it but
70:16
certain companies Buckle to governments all the time for privacy stuff so if
70:21
someone wants to do an investigation and you happen to have an Xbox One if if the
70:26
FBI is looking into you or whatever your Alibi was you were sitting watching TV
70:30
at that time were you actually there which in
70:34
some cases you could be like oh well that's good it's also terrible for
70:39
falsely accused people I don't want to camera in my house where you can see me
70:42
all the time that's ridiculous that's not cool at all um
70:48
because yeah it might help find someone's false Alibi it might also help
70:53
find a lot of other things that you don't need to find um Microsoft will not
70:59
allow Indie devs to self-publish H which knowing how fast
71:04
things can go if it has to go through a bureaucracy could hurt Indie devs a lot
71:09
because if you're delaying your releases that's not good that's great for the
71:12
PC a lot of this is great for the PC that's great for the PC I I you know
71:17
what that's the best news I've heard as a PC Gamer all day because Indie is what
71:21
is driving PC gaming in a big way right now because it is not the AAA titles and
71:26
it is not the big game devs that are really driving the PC forward as a
71:30
platform it's games like Hawkin that are getting people excited and wanting to
71:34
play games on a PC again oh yeah um so
71:37
you know what you know what Microsoft that's how you want to be about it then
71:42
yeah that's fine thanks for bringing people to your other platform I guess
71:45
yeah I guess than yeah um mind you if Gabe n has his way then it won't
71:49
necessarily be a Microsoft operating system on the PC that's
71:53
true um XBox one only has 5 GB of RAM
71:57
available to developers while PS4 has
72:00
seven I believe PS4 has seven they both
72:06
have 8 GB of RAM PS4 has seven available to developers Xbox one has five a big
72:11
part of this could be due to the fact that Microsoft is running three operating systems on the computer an
72:17
anex article about the the architecture of the CPU GPU of the processors in
72:22
these upcoming consoles was really interesting because even though octacore
72:26
so they have eight cores something to bear in mind guys is not all cores are
72:29
created equally I had someone telling me you couldn't build a PC as powerful as
72:33
an Xbox One for 500 bucks or whatever it'll launch at because it has an eight
72:37
core CPU so what it has an eight core CPU so does a Samsung phone that doesn't
72:42
mean that 8 core CPU comes anywhere near the performance of a 3570k which is a
72:48
quad core um it's not it's not about how many cor so anyway they they look at
72:52
into the architecture talked a little bit about how it's two four core modules
72:58
and what may end up happening on the Xbox 360 and this is all speculation is
73:02
that because so you have to segment the resources if you're going to have multiple os's you're going to have um
73:07
Windows running you're going to have Xbox running and you're going to have sort of something Bridging the Gap
73:13
um and if you if you have to if you have to split these resources the only way to
73:18
split them cleanly maybe to split them by module which might mean that the Xbox
73:23
One actually has sign significantly less
73:26
processing power available to it than the PS4 which doesn't have to run this
73:31
uh modified hyperv virtualization environment no one will really know I
73:35
was talking about this earlier too with with um with Xbox One's like maybe
73:39
caching maybe frame buffering maybe whatever solution that they're also
73:42
adding in that the PS4 doesn't have with all these other things thrown into the
73:46
fight it's really interesting um just to throw this out there about the not as
73:50
fast cores to put into perspective Xbox 360 had a three cor six thread solution
73:56
at 3.2 GHz Xbox one has a eight cores 8
74:01
thread solution at 1.6 GH so just to throw that out there um
74:06
they're it's not about how many cores and it's not about the frequency you got
74:10
to just wait until to actual performance we're going to have to get the consoles
74:14
before we actually know what's going to happen uh they're both running AMD
74:17
Jaguars what sort of you know Xbox One's
74:21
going to be slower yeah you know but it's the scale that I'm talking about how much of a difference there actually
74:24
is I brought this up earlier when you weren't actually in the room um
74:30
so Xbox one will be running 8 gabt of 21
74:33
33 MHz DDR3 PlayStation 4 will be
74:36
running eight I mean 8 gig did I say 8 gigabytes yeah okay 8 gigabytes of 5,500
74:42
mahz gddr5 which is a bit of a weird choice
74:46
because the latencies are higher it's as far as I know going to be
74:51
weirder to Dev but you look at the direction AMD is heading where they want
74:54
to make this CPU and the GPU much more integrated is there any reason I mean if
74:58
that where they're heading even on the desktop where we could use gddr5
75:02
memory it's just as system memory it's supposed to be I was reading the anch
75:06
thing it's supposed to be a better solution in this case so maybe that's a
75:10
very good way of looking at one quick thing system memory bandwidth on Xbox
75:13
One is 68.3 GB per second system memory
75:16
bandwidth on PlayStation 4 is 176 right which for things like um
75:22
streaming your favorite episode of The Big Bang Theory um through through the
75:27
Xbox store or whatever else is not a factor but when it comes to loading in
75:31
game textures memory bandwidth is King
75:34
you need big memory buffers you need big memory bandwidth in order to make that
75:39
um in order to have the best possible experience with that so um I don't know
75:44
how much you've talked about but I think maybe we'll let's see if uh we're my general
75:49
notes on it did you just rewrite them mm did we talk about how backwards compatibility is dead no I haven't
75:54
talked about any of that kind of backwards compatibility is dead unbelievable PlayStation 4 is but there
75:58
are dogs there's there's definitely dogs
76:01
um PlayStation 4 is apparently trying to mess around with some emulation or
76:06
emulation server thing something going on so they're trying to find a solution
76:10
as far as I know Xbox one as of now is not trying to find a solution but it's
76:14
funny because everyone else kind of gets it you look at what Sony's doing where
76:18
on their tablets for example they come PlayStation enabled certain tablets so
76:23
you can play PS1 games how cool is that y making I mean if it's all about the
76:27
content if it's all about the game Library leverage the game library with
76:32
that said I've seen people saying well when's the last time you fired up an Xbox One
76:36
game to which I would kind of go
76:41
okay okay uh actually uh week and a half
76:44
ago okay fine okay well there you go I don't apply to most of those things
76:48
though um but at the same time this brings out the other card and the sales
76:53
boosts that happened to it we wi U backwards compatible right right Wii U backwards
76:58
compatible so these two are not but Wii U is still fighting and now it's funny
77:02
get this because part of the reason for the the ID which people are saying kind
77:06
of looks like a betamax player yeah but honestly I don't mind that much because
77:11
I have a console yeah an Xbox 360 is
77:15
stupid it doesn't look nice on a proper
77:18
nice right looking where I've got my htpc like brushed aluminum finish thing
77:23
I've got my receiver got even even a wiii looks okay in there like it looks
77:28
fine um but the Xbox 360 looked ridiculous so I understand why they've
77:33
done this um and I don't oh yes right
77:36
but if they're not going to build in backwards compatibility I still have to
77:40
have my freaking Xbox 360 sitting there
77:45
anyway what gives it doesn't help it
77:49
only helps if I at the same time I don't think they've talked about it and they
77:53
could very possibly do something that PlayStation has talked about doing
77:57
talked about themselves doing so they could come up with some form of emulation I mean it's running a very
78:02
easy to work with architecture it could very easily bring up some type of
78:07
emulation and then just sell you download packs like would not be
78:11
difficult at all and wasn't there rumors about some add-on thing for Xbox one
78:16
there was a rumor about that where it would basically contain all the hardware we haven't heard anything about it
78:20
another thing is the games a lot of people bring up this has been a huge
78:23
topic as far as I've seen on Reddit and a whole bunch of other forums is like oh
78:28
they didn't talk about games very much blah blah I didn't talk about games there wasn't a ton about games yes but
78:33
E3 is coming up they will talk about games it'll happen I'm not that worried
78:38
about it E3 is coming up packs not that
78:41
far away those are both gaming events
78:44
yeah I mean this was I mean the the to
78:48
put it in perspective honestly I wasn't as disappointed with the Microsoft uh
78:51
reveal as I think a lot of people were I mean I was tweeting about it I was
78:55
making fun of certain things like that uh like that Game Dev that's like so
79:00
actually in this game in in the new Call of Duty you'll be an underdog going up
79:06
against components that out opponents that outgun you I'm
79:11
like really it's funny because the story
79:14
that they described is basically Homefront it's like Innovative wow wow
79:19
an underdog in like every other game ever yeah every FPS game that's ever
79:24
been made I was reading somewhere that apparently the new story line for ghosts
79:28
actually is like almost directly home front I don't know how true that is I
79:31
just read a random comment about that so I'm not entirely sure can't wait to use
79:36
the new Xbox controller for Steam Big Picture goes back to your thing it's
79:39
like thank you Microsoft for bringing us a new controller to use on our computer
79:43
I'm actually really excited about it looks really nice and the um feedback
79:46
triggers very cool they they're not just free flowing anymore although I don't
79:50
know what that's actually called but when the trigger just goes all the way down without any feedback
79:55
oh yeah so feedback triggers oh okay yeah the new controllers will have
79:58
feedback triggers which is very nice PS4 controllers have a touchcreen whether or
80:02
not you like that I'm not entirely sure and I think they're slightly bigger
80:05
which I actually like um because I think standard dual shocks are too small
80:10
personally um so I think the only major differences on the new dual shock is a
80:14
touchcreen in the middle and it's slightly bigger what they do with that
80:17
touchcreen could be okay or it could be totally dumb or it could be totally dumb
80:21
but if you can like wake up your Machine
80:25
by like a swipe sure I mean if you wanted you could also buy yourself a
80:29
Microsoft tablet and you could run Smart Glass and then you could have a touch
80:33
screen that shows you the map of whatever racing game you're playing or
80:36
whatever else I mean I don't I mean that's the kind of functionality I see
80:40
like like on a mini map or something like that and you know you know from monitors I don't really like touch
80:44
screens I'd rather have a physical button but I'm just trying to find a
80:48
good if it's handheld I think it's it would be crazy for it to not be a
80:51
touchcreen the controller
80:55
yeah like if if the if the if like sorry you said the controller has a touch
80:59
screen on it right yeah so if if anything handheld I think it's crazy to
81:02
not be touchcreen because it's definitely going to be faster to press
81:06
it than it is to yeah but like the center Xbox button who cares you want to
81:12
make a little touchcreen for that like I don't I don't necessarily think that's
81:15
that big of a deal but who
81:18
knows I don't know what else is there there's a lot of
81:23
notes here let's go through real quick oh
81:27
right so I put this in the um cons twice
81:32
for Xbox or I think I no I put it in the cons twice and the pros once so this
81:37
will be interesting um faster DLC and
81:41
maybe exclusive DLC from EA which is
81:44
good if you like spending a lot of money on DLC which is bad and just saying that
81:49
Xbox one is going to get the fastest release of
81:52
DLC that's just like saying they'll have release day
81:57
DLC yeah so you can download DLC on the
82:00
day that you buy your game which by the way Microsoft and EA already
82:08
exists yeah here we go see we can't even
82:11
manage to it's like too much confusion because of EA different
82:21
timing anyways having to install games on the a console have you covered that
82:25
at all nope so having to install them um having unlock codes uh and it only has
82:31
what is it a 500 GB hard drive I know which like yeah okay part of that's
82:35
taken up by whatever shows you want to watch if they download to your machine
82:39
I'm not entirely sure if that's possible part of that's taken up by the OS part
82:42
of that's taken up by the fact that gibby bite I had a hilarious call I was
82:47
on a conference call with one of the hard drive makers and I was like how did
82:51
you guys let this happen yeah seriously like I mean it's not like the Xbox one
82:56
is so small they couldn't put a 3 and a half inch hard drive we have 4 terab 3
82:59
and a half inch hard drives why isn't Microsoft allowing you to have multiple
83:03
hard drives why doesn't I mean have you seen seates nazes that have those you
83:07
know how you have 2 and2 in drives where that has like a slot loading Drive bring
83:11
back memory cards then I don't care but make them hard drive cartridges 250 GB
83:15
memory cards fine but come on 500 gigs
83:20
and that's all you need and you have to install every game due to like stuff
83:24
like Humble Bundle and Steam summer sale my games drive on my computer is like
83:30
900 gigs and it is not like a casual sit
83:35
down and play experience when you have to download a game before you play it uh
83:39
that's another thing um I I think with Xbox one you can play games while you're
83:43
downloading another game uh with PS4 you
83:46
can play that game as long as it's downloaded enough kind of how blizzard
83:50
does MHM uh I know a few other game companies do as well I'm just blizzard
83:53
is a pretty good example sample because they do it with Starcraft and uh wow but
83:57
if you're if you're done a percentage of the game you can start playing it might not be the best experience might not be
84:01
the whole game but you can play a bit that's kind of cool another thing PS
84:06
PlayStation is making it mandatory for every game to have a
84:10
demo which is awesome and I actually
84:13
think that this will I've never been much of a Sony Fanboy but this is making
84:18
it happen yeah a little bit um I think
84:21
this will make it better for their PR stance because gamers are going to go
84:26
like yes I get demos for everything right that's awesome um but then at the
84:32
same time it's great for Sony because I
84:35
know a ton of people pirate games just cuz they want to figure out if they like
84:39
it or not yep so now I know people who legitimately do it they pirate it and
84:43
then they actually legitimately buy it they have the box on the Shelf with
84:47
they've never opened yep because they want to support the Game Dev but they
84:52
want to support the Game Dev assuming that the game is good the game and a
84:55
trailer is not enough trailers are stupid trailers like sure they build
85:00
hype but they're not enough I mean you got to attach them to your truck and
85:04
then you got to actually drive somewhere they hurt your fuel economy oh
85:08
totally and like driving with that hanging behind you and like not that
85:13
easy the last time someone was like do you want to go to the park and we ended
85:16
up going to a trailer park they didn't even have a seesaw that's terrible you
85:20
have to have a seesaw trailers suck yeah anyways um more legitimate topics um oh
85:26
okay so Xbox One phone home uh now there
85:30
was a lot of rumors about always on now
85:33
something to bear in mind guys is a lot of the time rumors are started by the
85:37
companies that the rumors are about so that they can gauge the response that
85:42
they get so my suspicion and I have no idea if any of this is true is that
85:46
someone at Microsoft whether it was in them leaking it or whether they were
85:50
just keeping an eye on it was interested in how people would react to always on
85:56
and it sounds like the compromise that was reached because I'm sure always on
86:00
is great for the game devs and for the
86:04
hardware makers and all this stuff um so alwayson isn't an internet connection
86:07
guys just to clarify so it's great for them because it means that they can be
86:11
constantly validating what Hardware you have in it they can roll updates out to
86:15
you like that there's no such thing as you know mod chipping it and then never
86:19
connecting it to the internet again
86:22
Gone Gone however always on is sort of terrible
86:27
for people for the actual end user because if you have a if your internet
86:31
goes out because whatever internet connections
86:36
can go out for any number of reasons if you had to be always on you end up an
86:40
experience like Diablo I where you simply can't enjoy the content that you
86:44
paid for because you don't have an internet connection at the time that's
86:47
ridiculous so it looks like Xbox one is going to phone home probably about once
86:52
a day and there's no confirmation seems like the right hand doesn't know what
86:55
the left hand is doing and that's extremely disappointing I mean the point
87:00
of a console to me was that it does all
87:03
the things it's supposed to do as a self-contained unit not because it is
87:08
going to be constantly needing to be connected and
87:12
updated and dinked around with and all these weird things
87:15
so very disappointing sharing though is
87:19
kind of cool about Xbox One allowing you to capture footage and upload it so this
87:23
is similar to something like NVIDIA Shadow play and this is when when we
87:26
were talking about Xbox One at some point I alluded to maybe something
87:30
similar coming for the PC I was talking about Shadow play I think that's very
87:35
cool technology for gamers yeah for sure
87:38
I'm trying to find it um but the always on statistics yeah so we don't know
87:42
what's going to happen if you don't connect once a day the thing is you have
87:45
to connect once a day no one has any idea what happens if you're gone for a
87:49
weekend and you don't connect your Xbox um like what the heck guys anyways um I
87:56
can't find the actual percentage right now I had it earlier I should have put
88:00
it in our notes I'm sorry but I think it was like 30 it was surprisingly High I
88:04
think it was 30% it might not be someone please correct me um of Xbox 360 users
88:09
have never connected their Xboxes wow
88:12
and when this was brought up in an interview basically they said oh well
88:19
connect your Xboxes we're all about the new experience of always being connected
88:23
always being connected ConEd to everything being linked to everything and we believe in this experience so
88:28
it's happening they have a point they do
88:31
but I had my Xbox connected when I
88:35
played Halo 2 my Xbox
88:38
360 that was it other than that I didn't connect
88:43
it okay but I mean what about sort of software updates and stuff isn't it nice
88:48
to be able to get them sure plug it in
88:51
okay all right like I wouldn't want it always
88:55
plugged in it's kind of a cabling nightmare who has an Ethernet Jack next
88:58
to TV like we don't if I had to update
89:02
it I'd probably bring my Xbox to my computer temporarily hook it up to my
89:06
monitor update it bring it back down to my home theaters area and then leave it
89:10
there unplugged uh Ethernet unplugged not
89:14
power obviously so yeah that's just kind of
89:18
weird and like the the lack of information is also weird and I think
89:22
you I think it reeks of where waiting for E3 but then it's also kind of a
89:27
problem because it also WS of we're trying to find out how people react to
89:30
this before we before we official stat speaking of reactions guys the strongest
89:35
reaction that you can have is not to complain about it on your live stream no
89:39
matter how many thousands of people are watching the strongest reaction you can
89:42
have if you don't like anything about the Xbox One don't buy it whatever you
89:49
do no matter how many Halo TV series they dangle in front of you that will be
89:53
exclusive to Xbox One owners or whatever
89:58
don't buy it because if you give them your
90:02
money then they win and they will not listen to
90:06
you okay that's why when you call up
90:10
your internet service provider or whatever kind of Subscription Service
90:13
the only time you get any attention is from the customer retention department
90:19
because they don't care what you have to say they have teams of people that are
90:24
paid to staff phones and tell you they can't do anything because that is
90:28
actually more cost- effective for them than to actually fix it for you the only
90:33
way to address that is to take away the money that they're they use to pay those
90:36
teams of people to tell you that they can't do anything that's when you get to talk to someone real that's when things
90:41
will be fixed if you don't like the fact that Xbox one needs to phone home every
90:45
day you and everyone you talk to needs
90:48
to not buy an Xbox Microsoft will fix it
90:52
one by the time you put the amount of money that it takes to develop a console
90:55
the amount that Microsoft has riding on the success of this thing if something
90:59
comes up as the prevailing reason that no one's buying Xbox Ones they will fix
91:04
it like that so don't buy one if you're
91:08
not happy with it and then if you happy with it yeah buy um yeah exactly one
91:13
kind of cool thing if you're into it I'm not personally but the fantasy football
91:17
features that is actually pretty cool that's legit while you're live watching
91:21
a game it will update your fantasy football stat
91:24
and it will do it like as a slide in on the side of the screen like that's all
91:28
actually quite cool neither of us play Fantasy Football there's a lot of
91:31
functionality that an overlay would enable and they could spread this out
91:35
into other things and like okay that's very cool um again we're not really that
91:40
into it so I don't think we can talk about it that much but yeah and like I
91:44
think what was it you can have a chat there too so you can talk to your
91:49
football pool or whatever my fantasy football would have nudity would it that
91:52
exists doesn't it oh probably I I think there was like bikini football or
91:56
something something something like that I don't know um I think I've covered everything
92:02
I wanted to talk about oh yeah the GPU on the PS4 it looks like we did talk
92:05
about that I think good work I did specs there real quick anyways if you haven't
92:10
seen specs I'll tweet it out the Anan Tech article of um Hardware analysis and
92:15
comparison on the two is very interesting of course we won't really
92:18
know the actual spread difference until they're released but this will give you
92:22
a general idea of where they should yeah it'll give you and you know what we have
92:25
a pretty good idea of how much power there is behind the Xbox One at this
92:30
point already we know it uses gcn which
92:33
is AMD's current architecture we know that it uses an AMD core that already
92:38
exists in a desktop PC so what that
92:41
tells us right now is Xbox One is
92:45
already about as powerful as a pretty
92:48
mid-range PC like very mid-range like
92:51
low and mid-range although at the same time with games being properly made for
92:55
it and all that other kind of stuff being able to tap directly into the hardware using that that OS and yes all
93:00
those things but I mean at the same time
93:03
at the same time it's it's not impressive and you but I think have both
93:08
console makers come out and said that they're not losing money yeah that
93:13
they're not losing money that should tell you guys how uh how far ahead of their times
93:19
Xbox 360 and Playstation 3 were because
93:22
of how expensive they were to make and try to sell for 500 bucks versus both
93:27
Microsoft and Sony coming out and saying well we can sell this console for
93:31
whatever a console goes for I'm going to go ahead and guess and say $4.99 or
93:35
$5.99 for an elite or whatever and they're making money on it so the the
93:40
technological improvements of their consoles have not kept up trying to
93:45
align this have not kept up with the technological improvements that have actually been made in the last eight
93:49
years so there you go um all right so let's go ahead and do
93:55
our Forum news cuz we don't have much time left no Forum news submitted by
94:00
mackall we've kind of brought this up already but I find it hilarious so uh
94:05
the Xbox One disappointing reveal has shot up sales of the Wii U on amazon.com
94:10
the system was at 390 before the conference and has now shot up to number
94:14
40 um I mean this is all a little bit sensationalist due to Microsoft's
94:19
glorified TV box but um there you go
94:22
sales are now sitting at a 3 86% sales increase at
94:26
amazon.co.uk so you can click this link and check it out and apparently we'd
94:31
have to actually navigate to it but anyway we just thought that was pretty in pretty uh pretty funny thanks to mall
94:37
for contributing that news item uh next up we've got Titan Blizzard's new MMO
94:43
there's a number of rumors about it so this one was submitted by da da da da
94:52
eoo latest news on the game so pretty much there's the the things that are
94:57
most notable to me are the fact that it's going to be based on Earth's
95:00
history with a lot of mythological stuff which is really cool and time travel
95:04
time travel which is cool they have 150
95:08
devs working on it now as opposed to I think it was 100 what like eight months
95:11
ago six months ago so they are definitely ramping it up and they want
95:14
to turn it into a competitive esport in spite of the fact that it's an
95:19
MMO that sounds pretty ambitious because
95:22
they were in East sports for a bit there they were in and then they got kicked
95:27
out because of the just unpredictableness of uh World of
95:32
Warcraft Arenas there was so many changes certain things were so
95:36
overpowered and this wasn't like just some random kid complaining because he
95:39
got one shot like certain things were so overpowered and every single patch would
95:44
just break something else so they got basically kicked out of Esports yes
95:49
there's still competitive Arenas but it's not on the level as it should be
95:54
like actually should be world Warcraft Arenas should be very competible
95:58
competitive but because of how un competible but because of how unstable
96:03
it is it's not comb it with a brick compatible brick combing so it'll still
96:08
be an MMO so third party third party point of view um lots of weapons which
96:13
is cool so everything from Magic to guns and they are expecting a friends and
96:18
family type of availability uh sometime in what was it
96:23
q1 2014 uh friends yeah yeah friends and
96:27
family testing in q1 2014 which means we're not that far away which is very
96:31
cool very blizzard style Graphics you
96:35
might like that or of shame I wish they' do something to drive
96:39
forward the technology they're all about it working
96:42
on every device though yeah I know uh this 18-year- old's invention could make
96:46
your future phone insta charge so I can't remember her name um
96:54
Ki by the look of things invented a
96:57
super capacitor that could someday be a phone battery that charges in just a
97:00
couple seconds she won $50,000 for it
97:03
she got owned she got owned do you know how much
97:08
money Apple or Samsung could make off of a phone that charges instantly but isn't
97:12
it no she's awarded $50,000 for what she's done but she doesn't like that
97:17
didn't buy the patent everything's still hers okay she just got a like okay maybe
97:23
missed that part but either way I'm 99% sure I hope she got a lot more than
97:27
50,000 for it because that's going to change the way we use mobile devices
97:31
because if you could I wouldn't care about my battery life if I could zap it
97:34
and charge it in two or three seconds she's going to be crazy Rich if she does
97:39
this properly like crazy Rich cuz she did
97:44
that by herself too as far as I know so like when you have 100% Going just to
97:49
you oh man she's going to have all the money pretty soon yeah even if she
97:52
doesn't do it right she'll still probably do okay yeah I don't think she'll have to work anymore yeah um this
97:58
is cool submitted by Evan Owen the new
98:02
red dragon camera can shoot up to 6K resolutions and offers many improved
98:06
features now as you guys know if you watch the Techquickie Channel we are
98:10
big fans of slow motion slow motion's awesome it makes everything epic and um
98:16
so this camera is capable now our camera can do bursts of slow motion but that
98:21
means you don't get any sound recording and you can only like you have to
98:25
carefully plan your slow motion shots the red dragon can
98:29
shoot at 1080p at I don't even know it doesn't
98:34
even say it can shoot at 2K at 300 FPS which is basically the
98:40
only thing we really use for slow-mo on our camera cuz that's the only thing we
98:43
can shoot at 1080p it can shoot 4K at
98:47
200 200 200 FPS it can shoot 6K at 100
98:52
FPS now I've had people I aspect
98:56
ratio yeah okay the aspect ratio is different it's like 2 to one for 6K and
99:01
I think for 5K it's 2.4 to one very very widecreen
99:05
um however it should be noted that there
99:10
are reasons for shooting at higher resolution other than if people had 6K
99:14
TV so I had some people asking in the thread what is the point of shooting at
99:18
6K couple reasons number one is that down sampling an image in the Contex of
99:24
cameras is good yeah down sampling is
99:27
great one of the reasons that the fs700 the camera that we use for Techquickie
99:31
get some of the capture some of the best 1080p available is that it uses a 4K
99:35
sensor to do it so it's oversampling everything like crazy and then down
99:40
sampling it before it actually commits it to memory now if you are down
99:44
sampling from 6K to 4K or from 6K to 1080p you would be getting even more of
99:48
that the next up is cropping you would be able to do all the zooming and
99:54
panning that you want with a shot with a
99:57
camera mounted on a tripod because this is a this was really
100:01
cool from the no Film School article that uh was linked to by Evan check this
100:06
out guys this is what 6K looks like or
100:11
this is what 1080p looks like on a 6K image on a 6K image this little square
100:16
right here so so you could basically move the
100:20
camera around so it looks like the camera is moving yes but not actually be
100:24
moving the camera so you can have very very stable very awesome looking images
100:28
and then virtually move the vi around so
100:31
is kind of crazy yeah absolutely insane
100:35
it looks like a Kit's going to start around 30 grand so I'm thinking we should probably
100:39
get a couple at least five at least five five I think couple is very conservative
100:44
okay yeah um next Community News it just
100:47
have to sell our bodies for years uh we already talked about this one in our
100:50
connect coverage but just because this is what brought it to my attention eth
100:55
nod gets a shout out and AMD loses its
100:59
second place position for the first time
101:03
since the early 990s this was submitted by Looney so there's a chart here da da
101:08
da da da Intel number one at 65.3% this
101:12
is by millions of dollars so millions of dollars are here Qualcomm and Samsung
101:17
are now two and three this is the 2012 rankings with AMD coming in at see here
101:23
go sorry 2012 is right here with AMD coming in at only 6.4% market share as
101:29
the number four absolutely insane and I mean this
101:35
really just goes to show you how the world is changing in terms of because
101:40
remember the processor in your cell phone I mean compared to what the
101:44
processor in your desktop computer costs which might be let's say a couple
101:47
hundred the processor in your cell phone might cost 20 so to do that many
101:52
millions of doar you have to sell that many more of them so many so many more
101:57
of them so it just goes to show you where things are heading in terms of
102:01
computing and where the where the volume is in this business last one I'm trying
102:05
to burn through these here guys because we uh we we ended up sort of taking a
102:10
long time on some of some topics here the uh the creator of the gift which is
102:14
it's funny because this is how I read this sentence I went gift creator sets
102:18
record straight it's pronounced GIF so in his acceptance speech at the wees uh
102:22
he cleared things up this is he invented the the GIF and he used his own
102:28
invention to accept the award I'm going to play
102:50
this no audio I
102:57
don't so I got a kick out of that um the reality of it is that the reality of it
103:02
is that he's sort of wrong um because
103:06
you don't get to change the rules of English like I I had a friend in high
103:10
school who whose name was uh tiger Wong
103:14
except his last name was spelled w n g and I said okay then it's tiger Wang
103:19
he's like no no it's Wong it's just spelled like that I'm like well no
103:23
that's actually not how it works or like people who are like it's like it's like
103:27
someone saying like my name's Joseph and it's spelled like x a you know f e ex H
103:37
there's that chick in States her name was like I think it was L
103:41
A- a and her mom got super freaked out when
103:47
her teachers kept on calling her the wrong name because her name was Ladasha
103:54
this was from a while
103:59
ago cuz You' think it was like LA or
104:03
something anyway English has rules don't break them so I just couldn't care less
104:11
like all right build logs of the week
104:15
you're up slick um I'll I'll operate the mouse to
104:19
make things a little easier so let's go down so we can check out these pictures
104:24
oh oh you have to log in whoops I'm not logged in I would probably go to a
104:28
different scene huh why because I I
104:31
don't know everyone knows my account name yeah that's a good
104:35
point and I don't even remember my password
104:39
so if anyone can figure out my password based on that you're some kind of a
104:43
genius and apparently you'll get it wrong because that wasn't it now that um now that persistent sign
104:49
in actually works I'm going to have to try a few things here
104:58
there we go all right so this build was submitted by gymstar
105:04
87 there's a lot of pictures so you're
105:07
gonna have to get down there pretty quick because you'll notice he starts putting stuff in O saber-tooth very nice
105:12
yep he starts putting stuff in O ballistics Tracer with Sabertooth don't
105:16
see them enough and they're awesome and we might be lagging cuz there might be
105:20
ton of people so you see like Star cooler and stuff he's not done he's not
105:23
done oh nice sound card oh I know same sound card as me it's awesome and I like
105:28
that he has he actually has a sound card we get so many build logs where people
105:31
are like oh well I don't want to put stuff in my system I feel like that
105:34
they're just like yeah I just want to have a graphics card because it looks clean no he put stuff look pretty cool
105:39
so far yep he just has a St cooler liquid cooling time here we go see the
105:42
St cooler going away pretty quick oo T Virus bayz very nice carbon fiber finish
105:49
wrapping very nice inspired by the Vesta
105:52
i1 perhaps I didn't actually read so I'm
105:56
not really sure I just picture gazed all
105:59
that carbon fiber very very clean looking
106:03
wow looks so good very very Overkill and
106:08
awesome now we're starting to get into some of the night shots looking good
106:11
cool tubing I like what go sorry I like what he did with the cabling there how
106:14
the tubing went on the inside of the cabling and came back out that's very
106:18
cool because then it shows off his nice sleeving but doesn't actually take away
106:22
much from his tubing and stuff go
106:27
there what's up no never mind everything's okay okay um okay moving on
106:32
down nice s the cabl wow all the cables
106:37
and like he didn't do a bad job here there's just a billion cables this
106:41
actually pretty good when you actually build a rig and it's not just for show
106:45
yeah um it's often hard to avoid sort of a lot of so he did a really really good
106:50
job with what he had to deal with amount of C UV LED strips are the bomb
106:55
although the phobia ones I have about 20% of the LEDs are dying right now so
106:59
you can't tell too much but they're still really cool yeah so this looks
107:03
great and I'm very very happy that he just has a ton of stuff look at that he
107:09
made it work though which is so cool awesome and he's just got ssds just like
107:14
yeah they're they're going here so like there's an SSD right
107:18
there just like right there but like that's cool cuz whatever I like it it's
107:24
different he did a lot of stuff that isn't necessarily conventional
107:29
for these all look like camera phone pictures I wish that they were better
107:33
pictures but whatever it is what it is he spent all his money on his baller
107:36
computer true that two reses just because I can just because it's awesome
107:40
and there's more stuff oh there's another res in the bay too just because
107:44
I can apparently oh no it is dual Loops
107:48
okay but why does he have three reses or did the bay one not end up making it I'm
107:52
assuming it didn't make it in I don't actually I can't remember I think there might be okay so anyway guys there you
107:58
go if you want to see oh there is is in there it's reses so guys do check it out
108:03
I'm very happy that someone just stuffed their computer because there's more
108:08
things I don't think we even saw all of them but yeah it's sort of endless though
108:13
there's a billion amount of pictures you click the thing so it faded out a little
108:17
bit all right so let's have a look at our next build guide our not build guide
108:21
our next build blog of the week
108:25
which is as you might expect something a
108:28
little oh we went offline
108:44
apparently that's why I was like what
108:55
okay
109:04
well I wonder what the problem is they
109:08
think it's the images
109:17
why I don't know
109:24
what's the encoded thing all about that means it's running but not
109:29
connected for some reason is our internet down no well I'm talking to
109:43
them well
109:55
I don't know should we just call that the end just move over
110:00
mhm why don't we move um build logs of the week to well we'll do them at the
110:04
beginning of the live stream next week sure oh my God we have to announce the
110:07
winner of the meme
110:10
contest okay while I set up the next stream why don't you pick one sure out
110:14
of the email that you sent me y okay one do you have
110:18
one um sorry you said why don't you pick one do you have one no we're each
110:23

110:28
just do one
110:48
okay so are we saying we're just going to after party yep and we're going to do
110:52
