all right he is nice is welcome to show
0:06
hey nice shirt I like that shirt I actually actually like one of our my
0:10
favorite shirts that we have I like that one it's just wonderful out of ideas and
0:15
I feel like I feel like this is one of our shirts that you could just wear randomly and people might get like a
0:20
sensible chuckle out of it even if they don't know what the point is exactly
0:24
yeah and that is what Linus Tech tips is all about getting a little chuckle out
0:28
of it even if you have no idea what the point was welcome to the W
0:33
show we got a great show for you guys today actually I'm really not that sold
0:38
on today being a great show no um sometimes those are the best shows sure
0:44
um so there's like electric vehicle news which uh usually like ratings are just
0:49
like when we talk about that but but we you know we'll we'll talk about it
0:53
anyway uh Samsung more Note 7 news wow
0:57
and then that's it for main topics
1:00
then we go to Rapid Fire which is where we put topics that we're very unsure
1:04
about Logitech has a new remote for giving the best PowerPoint presentations
1:09
ever oh God and in other news surprise surprise
1:16
Time Warner cheated customers on internet speed noctu is releasing
1:21
attorney CPU coolers
1:24
for which like is good but like that was
1:28
it that was the show today thank you everybody and we will see you again next
1:31
week same bat Time same bat
1:36
channel oh oh oh uh
1:44
sure and I don't think there's any sound in the intro because I actually did get
1:48
Ed to fix it before the show today but I I just sat down and I did not um I did
1:54
not do the thing to be fair you were recording a very cool video yes I was uh
2:00
on a Friday afternoon when I'm supposed to be preparing for w show but uh you
2:05
know glass houses and stones and not throwing them because you were also
2:10
recording a very cool video yeah yeah I wasn't trashing on you I wasn't trashing
2:15
on you at all no no not at all I mean this is not a trash relationship no this
2:20
is a uh it's a seat relationship a seat that's reference that no one will get
2:24
unless they were in this office in this section of the office before the W show
2:27
went live yo that was a very inappro com
2:30
that you made
2:34
what very inappropriate comment totally inappropriate the worst the worst
2:39
comment my friends called me they were like it's the worst comment I've ever
2:42
heard the worst comment I've ever heard um all right I'm just firing up twitch
2:46
um so you know what since this news is
2:50
terrible um I am going to create my own
2:53
news and uh you are going to stall for
2:57
me for like 2 minutes while I grab the
3:01
most amazing news ever okay so I'll be right back yeah uh I guess I'll like
3:06
lightly talk about a topic because I'm not entirely sure what's going on even
3:11
uh electric cars and cheap solar could halt fossil fuel growth by
3:16
2020 uh cool honestly there's not a ton else
3:21
to say about that I have no idea where allius went it says by 2035 electric
3:26
vehicles could make up 35% of Road trans of the Road Transport Market over 66% by
3:33
2050 uh this is a report on the guardian
3:36
I don't think I can even show you this right now let me
3:40
see here we
3:45
go oh dear what is this okay no we're
3:49
going to switch back okay is this all
3:52
you're going to show or you going to take it out okay okay you got to I'm
3:57
just G to put it over here yeah you to
4:01
focus now that's fine okay so are we going to open it behind me no no no I'm
4:07
not going to open it I'm saving it I'm saving this moment so what does that
4:13
look I just you're going to show them a brown box yes okay it doesn't even have
4:18
look at this it doesn't even have a shipping label on it no shipping label
4:23
so was hand delivered unmarked
4:27
package this is for something okay first
4:32
of all these three boxes cuz this is one
4:35
of three okay will be the most expensive
4:39
unboxing I have ever done why does this
4:43
happen like every
4:46
month the most expensive unboxing I have ever done okay okay for
4:52
now because there's something more expensive coming see next month next
4:56
month next month okay
5:00
these are from Seagate oh I know what this is okay and
5:06
this is the official announcement so onow so next weekend I'm actually going
5:11
to be here wow um I'm going to be here at the office for both days on the
5:16
weekend I'm going to be working on uh a
5:19
couple of things so next weekend I'm going to be doing an updated look at our
5:24
server room the last time you guys saw our server room um well okay the most
5:29
recent time you guys saw our server room I was breaking into it by taking the air
5:33
vent off the door which by the way is not would not be a successful way to
5:39
break into our server room okay so you know I hate to bust your bubble but not
5:45
everything you see on TV is is the truth
5:48
okay um anyway I'm doing a server room update where we're going to clean it up
5:53
because everything in there has been running for almost two years now some of it um we're going to Cable manage it
5:58
something that I really should have done a very very long time it's bad it's like
6:03
abominable like you you have to you have to kind of Step you have to kind of Step
6:07
gingerly when you're around the back of the cabinet because if you step on the
6:12
button of a power bar or a power squid you could potentially knock out a bunch
6:16
of servers um so that's terrible um I'm
6:20
going to be doing some server consolidation with VMS so like our
6:25
surveillance server is going to be combined with um a nightly backup server
6:31
for all the machines in the office and combined with I've told you about this
6:36
before so I'm going to set up like
6:39
um might might be some combination but crash plan own cloud some kind of just
6:45
like free cloud backup solution for
6:49
everyone who works here um so so that's going to be one box um I'm moving the
6:54
network switches to the back I don't know why I didn't put the network
6:59
switches in the the back in the first place uh so I'm going to put those in
7:02
the back so that's going to help with cable management we're changing our Wi-Fi to the New Wave 2 AC ubiquity gear
7:08
so our Wi-Fi is going to be much faster that's good um we're putting acoustic
7:12
dampening material we're lining the entire inside of the room that's also
7:16
good with $3,000 worth of acoustic dampening stuff
7:21
what um so I got in touch with the guys
7:25
who actually these guys are they're pretty cool so this was um I talked to
7:30
Mike from Silent PC review back when we moved in here is this the denim stuff or
7:35
so this was the stuff that he recommended that we cover the entire
7:39
inside of the warehouse in and basically we eventually concluded that it was cost
7:45
prohibitive there was no like standardized way to mount it like we
7:49
wouldn't even be able to find a contractor who was going to put like
7:53
inall insulation in our Rafters because
7:57
it would block the sprinklers like there were a ton of problems we didn't do it
8:01
um but it's this uh it's this cotton fiber shredded insulation that has
8:08
wonderful heat uh thermal characteristics as well as not emitting
8:14
any um odors or chemicals which we definitely experienced with this
8:18
cellulose sprayon stuff in here but is gone now um and then the other thing
8:22
that's great about it is that its acoustic properties are unreal like just
8:27
outstanding both in terms of and there's there's two different ways that you can
8:31
measure the uh like the acoustic
8:35
canceling and blocking properties of a material there's the echo reduction so
8:40
there's like the scattering and then there's also the stopping like the
8:44
blocking from transmission and this is
8:47
excellent for both so we're going to line the entire inside of the room and
8:51
we're going to set up dust filtration on the backup intake and exhaust of the
8:57
room so that well just the intake take actually so that in the event that the
9:02
air conditioning system which has been added since the last update like it's
9:06
been overhauled um so the air conditioning system in the event that
9:09
that fails it won't completely suffocate in there and I'll have some time to go
9:13
and deal with it okay the last thing
9:17
that I'm doing is I'm making room for a
9:20
project that has been in the works with Seagate and 45 drives for months now
9:27
yeah for quite a while and and it has been in preparation for us to move to
9:33
shooting 8K so some of you probably noticed I'll just go grab
9:38
it especially on Floatplane it looks better about Floatplane
9:43
updates after actually um so some of you
9:47
may have noticed especially those of you who have watched the um desk PC finale
9:54
where we do a bunch of Glam footage shot on red uh we've actually got an epic W
9:59
with the helium sensor now so we are shooting our
10:03
videos at somewhere between 6 and 8K
10:06
depending on how Brandon wants to utilize the different sensor crops and
10:09
all that stuff okay so that's a big storage problem and I'm a packrat
10:15
digital pack rat physical packrat I'm a
10:18
packrat um the first step is admitting you have a problem the second step is
10:22
completely ignoring it I was just going to say and getting more storage so I'm
10:26
trying to figure out how to Archive this stuff at some kind of reasonable um
10:31
approximation of the original quality that's where this comes in we
10:36
have officially outgrown un raid for the
10:39
vault I'm actually going to be using unraid for that multi-purpose machine
10:43
with the uh with the Windows VMS for surveillance and and the crash plan
10:47
thing and all that stuff uh so that is actually going to be like a 100 terab
10:50
plus machine so there will be a lot of storage on there for uh for everyone
10:53
here which is going to be super cool but anyway we have outgrown that for the
10:57
vault and this box behind me is for
11:01
something that I'm calling my pet
11:07
project and pet is short for as some of
11:11
you are probably guessing in twitch chat right now oh my God
11:16
paby yes my friends the goal is to have
11:21
a single addressable volume Network
11:25
share okay with a petabyte of Total
11:30
Space so we're going to take all
11:33
170 or so 180 or so terabytes that are
11:36
on the current Vault we're going to migrate them over to this the whole
11:40
thing's going to be using a combination of probably Centos with ZFS and then
11:46
gluster FS running over top of it so that we can actually cuz I mean how do
11:51
you put a petabyte worth of drives in one box you don't so we're going to have
11:55
two 60 Drive storinator you're right it
11:58
just come coming soon two 60 drive stators that are going to be running as
12:02
a cluster and then possibly a solid state
12:07
cash what are you using for that um what
12:10
uh we're using SOS with ZFS and then we're using gluster FS over top so it's
12:15
come full circle The Forum used to be sent to us there you go so um this is uh
12:23
that and the other two boxes
12:26
is0 tbte seate Enterprise capacity
12:30
drives a hundred of them and then in order to in order to achieve the
12:35
addressable one pyte space I'm going to borrow some of the six and 8 terabytes
12:41
that they sent me before and I'm going to create a couple more gluster bricks
12:45
we can show that big number is there an estimated value uh yeah I believe it's
12:49
about 60 Grand worth of
12:53
drives this is why like sometimes I have a hard time coming up with video ideas
12:57
and I think it's because like my brain never goes to that space where it's like
13:01
yeah I'll just you know 80
13:05
grand like
13:12
just yep my personal rig which is coming
13:15
soon because it's done now um yeah you
13:19
should talk about it I I spent like uh $160 on amethyst crystals and I felt
13:24
like super bad I was like that's a lot of money for a mod ah there's cases that
13:30
are cheaper than this a lot of them a lot of really good cases literally the
13:34
case that I'm using is cheaper than this
13:38
oh anyways I guess I can talk about my now underwhelming project of my personal
13:42
rig well it's not underwhelming it looks compared to a pedy server well you know
13:48
okay we don't want to we don't want to fall into the seven Gamers one CPU trap
13:52
again okay technically it's two servers yeah okay okay look we're not going to
13:56
do that anymore I should totally call it one paby one server you should I should
14:01
totally do it I should have them silk screen on the front of the machines one
14:06
paby one server by calling it a drive because it
14:10
looks like a drive when you access
14:13
it one one paby
14:16
drive it's a network drive so I'm going to open up the
14:23
HDD oh man anyways personal rig uh snap
14:27
PCS On's already got it healing PC oh I
14:32
didn't push that that much in the video before the video John and I spent like
14:36
weeks talking about how the amethyst crystals were like going to heal us and
14:40
bring more positive energy into the benchmarking environment um and then we
14:45
yeah I decided not to push that way too much in the video just cuz I thought it
14:48
would get boring and there was so many crazy things that happened that I was
14:52
like I'm just going to focus on the crazy building
14:55
things uh should I say some of the stuff yeah sure go for for it I mean I mean
15:00
realistically like come on these are wow viewers these are the hardcores they're
15:03
going to watch it so and nothing you say
15:07
right now is going to wa take away the experience of the Brandon Glam b-roll at
15:11
the end that's fair yeah that is very fair there's b-roll of my crazy like
15:17
amethyst gem geode computer uh shot on a
15:21
red so that'll look pretty good the cooler that I used for it which was a
15:26
crow rig R1 ultimate
15:29
very much didn't fit it wasn't it wasn't it wasn't like a couple
15:34
millimeters like it was a huge amount of not fit he comes up to my office and
15:39
he's like do you think if I start ripping fins off with pliers and I'm
15:43
just like um uh I um I just found it I'm like uh I
15:52
don't I don't know if that is a uh he
15:56
told me not to do it and then while we were sitting there talking about
15:59
something else I just decided to do it anyways uh but spoiler alert I started
16:04
from the top just in time so he starts doing it just in time for me to be like
16:10
oh but if you did it this way yeah cuz I'm like whatever I'm going to
16:15
try it so I start ripping from the top and he's like yo if you just take them
16:18
off the bottom then you can keep it looking aesthetically nice at the top so
16:22
then I had to try to figure out how to like reattach it reattach to a heat sink
16:27
okay so you'll get to watch that Adventure yeah and that so this is like
16:31
like half an hour in I run into this problem 2 hours later this cooler that
16:36
doesn't miss that doesn't fit by like entire fin length then some heat pipe
16:42
Collision was happening too I get it to fit uh I'm going to leave out how I get
16:48
the heat pipes to fit yeah um if it fits Luke sits
16:54
man oh my goodness brutal um but yeah I
16:58
got the I got the CP Co to work you put that heat pipe back in there yeah I did
17:02
I did it was close but like you just you got to work it and then after a little
17:06
while of just like repeated like you you
17:09
just don't want to push too far cuz then you might rupture the heat pipes yeah e
17:14
that's true that's true that is true and once the heat pipes lose their inner
17:19
juice uh they're not effective anymore yeah that's actually did you know heat
17:25
pipes have like liquid in them yeah that
17:28
travels up and then like goes not necessarily liquid but they do have
17:31
fluid in them for sure CU technically liquid and gas are both
17:36
fluids we're trying to be very scientific on the show moving forward
17:40
yeah um so it got so healing crystals
17:43
yeah and then so I figured that out go that go that way for a little while and
17:49
then I have to figure out how to put all these freaking because in my mind I was
17:52
just like yeah it's a great case I'll make it look like a
17:56
geode it's not that simple there's a lot there's a lot to it one another visit to
18:01
Linus's Office later how would you how
18:05
would you glue rocks to the inside of a computer and I'm like well gee Luke I've
18:10
never really thought about that I've never had a desire to do that I also
18:14
emailed Rod yes and you know what's funny about this I emailed Rod like what
18:19
I'm going to guess off the top of my head was three months ago yeah and he
18:23
suggested exactly how it should have gone and I completely forgot and then
18:28
ended up figuring it out through trial and error and then doing exactly what he
18:32
had told me if I just listened to him from the start everything would have
18:36
been fine rod from bsods knows best man he saw part of a Channel Super Fun where
18:41
when I'm on the phone cuz they're trying to prank me I'm sitting beside it working on it and he was like I saw some
18:46
amethysts you're working on it that's really cool and then I'm like oh man but
18:51
he replied to that email thread I completely forgot about it and I'm like I wonder if he told me to do it the way
18:55
that I ended up doing it go up and he says exactly like word for word exactly
19:00
how where the LEDs should go even so it looks better
19:06
like all right moving on to some actual
19:09
news from this week that is not internal LMG news Samsung is committed to
19:16
whatever that says quality there we go we learned from
19:22
the Galaxy Note 7 issues and have made changes as a result like last time
19:29
like the first time that they learned from the Galaxy Note 7 issues and then made changes as a result there's also
19:34
something about topload washers there's a c details link here as well anyway the
19:38
point is Samsung's new and enhanced quality assurance measures are for
19:44
product safety you can watch a video about it Samsung's got that linked on
19:47
their site so the first we should do a factory tour they should show us their
19:52
new quality assurance measures that would be pretty cool and we should broadcast to the world I'd be totally
19:57
down I was trying to get LG to let come see their display manufacturing oh that
20:01
would have been really which would have been really cool but would love how to see that the thing about LG is that like
20:07
um as far like okay I I think that
20:11
industry is secretive to the point where like maybe not quite the uh I forget his
20:16
name the uh the the Soviet uh rocket scientist who couldn't even be given a
20:21
Nobel Prize because the Soviets kept his name a secret and he wasn't allowed to
20:26
have photographs taken of him like he only got he only got secret medals that
20:30
he wasn't allowed to wear or show anybody like Soviet Russia man um like I
20:36
don't think it's quite like that but I think it's to the point where they don't even really want people seeing like the
20:42
layout of the floor and like how many people work on that and whatever like
20:46
because there's a lot of I mean the Korean super Giants are like hyper
20:51
competitive um so I understand why they didn't let us do it so anyway the tldr
20:56
of the Samsung thing is the first battery issue was the negative Electro
21:00
tips touching each other in a curved way causing a negative charge to occur the
21:05
second battery issue was an abnormal weld spot in the middle left of the
21:10
battery that caused it to ShortCircuit so in their commitment to Quality
21:15
article they address why this won't happen again so
21:18
it's quality first which means improved processes throughout the company to make
21:22
sure quality and safety comes first as I wonder what was first before yeah like
21:28
not saying that um I'm not saying like this is a bad thing to say and I'm not
21:33
even suggesting that quality and safety first wasn't already the way that they
21:38
were designing products I'm just wondering
21:42
um I'm just so they're just like saying
21:45
like yes and I'm we'll do it better this time okay so there's an eighto battery
21:50
safety check now so an extensive battery check protocol to ensure the safety of
21:54
the battery which includes durability tests charge discharge tests visual
21:58
inspection tests ocv test tvoc I'm not
22:03
sure exactly what that is X-ray test accelerated usage test and disassembling
22:09
test okay they've got multi-layer safety
22:12
measures I love how the tvoc test literally just says additional testing
22:16
to ensure battery Integrity I'm going to look up what this
22:20
is let's so uh test validating test test validation of uh
22:27
cells tvoc testing and validation of
22:30
cells the O is capital well you know what I made it up on the spot tvoc is a
22:36
grouping of a wide range of organic chemical compounds to simplify reporting
22:40
when these are present in ambient air or emissions many substances such many
22:45
substances such as natural gas could be classified as volatile organic compounds
22:49
okay that's a completely different thing that has nothing to do with this total
22:53
V total volatile organic compound um
22:58
okay so it's a multi-layer safety measure so the idea is to improve safety
23:01
standards for their batteries from Hardware design to software protection
23:05
they also have a team of experts from Academia and from research centers to
23:09
objectively analyze the safety of their batteries called the bag or they're
23:14
calling it battery Advisory Group but I like the bag better okay the bag the
23:21
bag uh did you cover electric cars in cheap solar fossil fuel growth sort of
23:26
sort of but it it's very very uninteresting okay cool uh so let's move
23:31
on this is interesting so this was posted
23:35
by certain that's actually what it is by the way the tboc thing oh really yeah oh
23:41
okay well you win maybe maybe yeah I'm
23:45
not I'm not 100% certain so the original article here is from The Verge Apple has
23:50
filed a patent for some sort of
23:54
vaporizer so here's the diagram so
23:57
there's a lid okay um there's a vapor there's a
24:02
substance substance being vaporized or
24:05
sublimated there's a heater which is
24:09
here I guess and a plate you can patent this which is here there's a chamber
24:13
body and it should be noted that the chamber body you can tell from the little lines going this way are separate
24:18
from the lid okay so it's not sealed
24:21
okay so there you can patent this
24:25
uh what well hold on a second they
24:29
published a patent application okay that details A peculiar
24:34
vaporizer technology okay so
24:39
um I mean okay so some folks might maybe
24:44
this is you know wishful thinking for some people out there might go oh wow
24:48
the iape probably I would be very surprised
24:55
probably not uh but basically the plan
24:59
is for the apparatus to be able to regulate temperature to release heat
25:05
from a substance within a canister they
25:08
also want to be able to keep air out of the chamber with the substance being
25:14
vaporized so I mean ecigarette could be
25:18
a potential application um air fresher for a car is
25:23
one of the other suggestions in the dock though I'm not really sure about that um
25:27
no other information available I have no
25:31
idea I couldn't possibly imagine what would you do with a vaporizer if you
25:35
were Apple would you maybe put it in your stores so that Apple Stores would
25:40
have a particular scent okay huh maybe
25:43
it would be a more efficient way to have an apple scent yeah in your store yeah I
25:48
mean and it could be like a goodlook thing that makes the scent instead of
25:51
like a hidden scent thing that a lot of stores use yep they've done like a lot
25:55
of um oh that could even be a product the eye
26:02
smell I'm sure they call it something other than that yeah prob um it is being
26:06
like weed is being legalized in a lot of States oh I can't even I seriously doubt
26:12
it but it could be them no no no but it could be them patent trolling a little
26:16
bit here's an idea let's patent it if someone wants to use it they're going to
26:19
have to pay us maybe that's my that's as far as I'm
26:24
willing to reach in that direction I have a hard time I mean Apple's St
26:28
on pornography even in the early days of
26:31
the iPhone was like jobs basically didn't want boobs on his device but jobs
26:37
is pretty down with the drugs okay or
26:41
was that okay this is true but what I mean is like they take a fairly
26:47
conservative stance as a company and I
26:50
don't mean like like necessarily conservative in the sense that um you
26:56
know their CEO can't be out of the closet gay I just mean like
27:01
they don't have you know an an ey drink
27:05
you know like they even though you know wine culture in California is absolutely
27:11
a thing one of the preloaded things on your on your iPhone isn't I wine you
27:17
know like a a curated way to you know
27:21
buy wine with Apple pay online or whatever like they just they
27:25
could easily do any of these things but
27:29
but they don't they leave that to the third party app developers to come up
27:32
with like you know a smoking tracker or
27:35
whatever the case may be like whatever um so I just I I can't imagine
27:41
them doing it but I could be wrong I
27:44
don't know man that doesn't make a ton of sense um
27:49
okay so moving on to the most
27:52
interesting topic we have today the most more interesting than all those drives
27:57
um the Gart Summits data Summit what no
28:01
this is the Logitech uh oh okay I was making a joke I didn't even see the ad I
28:05
don't even see ads I don't I'm not aware that they exist I just it's like muscle
28:10
memory don't look don't look what ad was on your
28:15
page yeah go Daddy go
28:18
Daddy I had no idea I just I would have
28:21
gone like this and I would have gone this pertains to my interest of okay so
28:27
this is fancy and new okay so I actually got briefed on this earlier this week um
28:32
without asking my permission I love it when this happens like NVIDIA will do
28:36
this with graphics cards that they know that nobody cares about they'll send you
28:40
an email they're like the whatever 40 GS is in the mail
28:46
yeah here's your review's guide yeah and
28:49
you're just like yeah I uh really wasn't going to review this I
28:54
mean now I feel obligated because there's a graphics card in the mail it's
28:57
like it's not like I feel obligated because you've like paid me for my time in some
29:02
way I mean we're talking about you know an $80 graphics card like there is I thought you going to say we're talking
29:06
about NVIDIA no it's just it's like it's more like a social obligation like you
29:10
know you did a thing you involved me you made me feel like part of the pre-launch
29:15
experience maybe I should actually review it on time maybe anyway so they
29:20
pulled one of those on me the the what's it called the Logitech Spotlight was
29:25
already in the mail oh this is a spotlight oh yeah this is the spotlight
29:29
uh the Logitech Spotlight was already in the mail by the time I got my briefing
29:34
call on it you're going to use it now for what you're going to end up using it
29:38
in some weird video okay it's actually possible so logitech's whole thing is
29:44
like we're going to reimagine the presentation remote that needed to
29:47
happen Okay so tell me this let's talk
29:51
in like super corporate boring terms okay I don't do very well with that but
29:55
okay what are your pain points when it
29:58
comes to giving presentations you know pain points right
30:02
like that's like a like addressing a customer need that's what they're called
30:06
they're called pain points I don't really feel like I would have any major
30:11
ones no major pain points I I would feel like if if someone was telecommuting in
30:16
yeah I feel like the hardware and software to support that is extremely
30:19
subpar no no this is for in-person presentations yeah they mostly seem
30:26
fine oh okay so I don't have a t else to
30:30
say there I've given presentations too back when I was in school I had to like
30:33
present to yeah okay so the openings the opening slide of I'm sure they have
30:38
something amazing yeah of the deck that I was shown was like some percentage of
30:43
people Fear public speaking more than death which is like
30:49
obviously like a flawed study we've all heard it before you've heard that before
30:53
right which is ridiculous because I've never had a problem with that even
30:57
before this job if you ask well it's not even about whether you personally would
31:01
it's about the way that they must be collecting data for this yeah for this
31:05
study I mean you can't call that a study because there's two ways that you can
31:09
collect data about what someone would prefer to speak in front of a large
31:15
audience or to die you can ask them on the phone hey so um question
31:23
6B would you rather or you can hold a
31:27
gun to their head head and be like start talking or I'm going to blow your
31:31
freaking brains all over the they'll start much everyone will start talking
31:34
they'll start talk and even then I bet you it was a mass survey of a whole
31:39
bunch of questions and you had to rate it on a scale and then people went
31:43
public speaking that's a zero I hate doing that then it was like death and
31:47
they're like H I'm not afraid of anything I'm going to put a three
31:52
because I am satisfied with my life blah blah blah blah blah blah blah um it's
31:56
probably just weird emotional response stuff yeah so anyway so one of the
32:00
features it has is that in a minute you can get uh 3 hours of presentation
32:05
battery life so like okay if you were
32:09
stuck not I I think it's uh 3 hours is
32:13
it six hours it was like a lot it was like
32:16
actually uh it was actually pretty impressive like that's cool um whatever
32:21
in a minute you can get hours of presentation time so so that's kind of
32:26
neat so if like you would stress oh no my remote's not working how am I going
32:29
to give this presentation I'm doing like a TED talk or something I think Ted
32:34
would have you covered I think Ted would probably have a backup remote but look
32:37
we're trying to we're we're finding pain points okay yeah we're finding pain points I feel like Ted would have
32:41
someone else actually run we're finding pain points unless you doing a tedex the
32:45
independent ones then maybe you bring your own depending on the size some of
32:49
them are done in like basement and stuff okay so it can communicate via Bluetooth
32:53
or it has a dongle that slides into the bottom and also acts as like a handy
32:57
dandy little Loop if I were put a loop on would it a loop
33:01
that detach from the um so there's that
33:05
that's sort of one piece of feedback um it charges via
33:09
USBC um it uh so this is pretty cool it
33:13
you can adjust the volume by it end is USBC or the other end is USBC um it end
33:18
is USBC for charging inside and then it terminates in some other connection on
33:22
the other end USB a yeah okay good yeah yeah all good all good all fine um so
33:27
you can adjust the volume with like a touch pad thing or gestures or something
33:31
I think like that gestures yeah um here
33:35
we go so you can assign uh one of
33:38
several abilities to the top or bottom buttons you can fast forward you can
33:41
blank the screen you can scroll you can set it for a custom keystroke so some of
33:45
the Logitech G you know programmable
33:49
nonsense makes its way into it I thought this was pretty cool you can move a
33:53
cursor around and you can zoom in on your cursor
33:56
Point like with a little the spotlight yeah okay so you can have a little
34:00
Spotlight um and it feels really good in the hand it comes in matte colors and is
34:04
available exclusively on logitech.com and through the Apple Store for the
34:07
first month you said something about gestures yeah I think there's gestures
34:12
um maybe I'm wrong about that I don't see anything about gestures in this
34:15
article I don't know it's a presentation remote and it's like 130 bucks or
34:19
something like that um it feels really good in the hand though it's
34:24
metal so if you're like a baller business dude and you're like I want the
34:27
best presentation remote yes then you would buy one of these yeah
34:32
all right so that's cool I guess yeah oh
34:35
man this is kind of a been a painful week have you noticed how like every
34:41
like if you're on like a product I'm not going to be able to relate to a ton of
34:45
people right now but if you're on like a product conference call yeah and they're
34:49
trying to like explain things to you have you noticed like the quality is
34:54
often terrible
34:57
hm no and like I don't think that it's
35:01
the mics H I don't necessarily think it's the webcams but the webcams are
35:05
often terrible too and like the screen sharing software is often garbage I've
35:09
had pretty good experiences um yeah Logitech did the one through uh but
35:13
Logitech makes this stuff so they probably use their own really high-end things and they're probably great I'm
35:18
talking like when it's not companies that make presentation things ah yeah
35:23
well no no Logitech doesn't have their own um like their own like you're
35:26
talking like go-to meeting or like WebEx and all that kind of stuff yeah Logitech
35:30
was using one that I actually don't think I've used before it was pretty good my last couple go-to meetings have
35:34
been pretty good I've had a lot of WebEx ones that were just sort of terrible it
35:40
could be the like way it's set up or something connecting to them seems
35:43
really clunky too I don't know man you'd think this kind of stuff would be very
35:47
simple by now that's what yeah I remember seeing a demo at I think it
35:51
would like it was some developer conference or some kind of show and the
35:55
demo was like this it was this social
35:58
like video sharing application and the
36:01
idea was that it was kind of like chat rooms and you could have like dozens of
36:06
users all represented by like little tiny bubbles and you could like drag
36:11
your bubble did you see this too I I think I remember this yeah yeah and you could like drag your bubble from one
36:16
room into another and then you were all just kind of like sitting there chatting and you all just had your your bubbles
36:21
um and it was kind of like Skype but I
36:24
think the idea behind it was that you could share experiences through it as
36:28
well so you could all watch a movie together for example which is probably
36:31
why it never got off the ground because that has all kinds of like content
36:34
protection yeah um issues associated the
36:39
thing that drives me crazy is you you hear about these like remember we met
36:43
that dude I have to be super vague here and
36:47
he was the engineer who was making the crazy stuff
36:51
that he was we weren't allowed to talk about it and he wasn't allowed to talk
36:55
about it too much oh in the airport yes yes I was going to try to leave the
36:58
airport out just to even try to make it more V but that's as far as I'm going to
37:01
go there like they're making crazy stuff and some of this stuff already exists
37:05
I've been into conference rooms where I'm like wow the hardware you guys have
37:09
to broadcast the people that aren't in this room is amazing Y and then I get on
37:14
some of these calls and I'm just like it sounds like crap it looks like crap
37:18
what's going on this can't be the hardware that's in these rooms yeah I
37:22
mean you look at like the way that okay so like uh wireless access point beam
37:27
hav had a conference call with logisch yeah I can't wireless access point beam
37:31
forming um that's a thing so that's where you have an array of antennas that
37:36
pick up um pick up where the clients are
37:39
effectively and make sure that the signal strength is as good as it could
37:43
possibly be so I think like our Ruckus r710 has something like I don't remember
37:49
how many it is it's like 40 antennas or okay it's not that I don't remember how
37:53
many it is but it has lots lots of antennas and it uses this beam forming
37:56
in order to uh have better signal strength and this
37:59
type of beam forming also exists for audio so that's how something like um
38:05
noise cancellation on a pair of wireless headphones Works where it'll go okay
38:10
this one and this one are working together to pick up your voice and then
38:14
this Omni one over here is trying to find anything that's not your voice and
38:19
they'll be able to cancel out anything that isn't you algorithmically using
38:25
multiple microphones and so there is crazy stuff that exists wow but it's
38:32
either very very expensive or not even possible to buy unless you like call up
38:36
a Solutions engineer from one of these companies and go do you guys have
38:40
anything like this and they go yeah sure we'll have someone in the lab like hand
38:43
make it for you yeah um yeah I mean a
38:46
perfect example of something like that was Sony's laser projector that they
38:50
showed off a couple of years ago at C yes where that was kind of like this in
38:53
between it was in between having a skew
38:57
that goes was in a box with a part number that sits on a Shelf at Best Buy
39:01
and you having to like call Sony and have them build something custom because
39:05
they did create a skew but you had to like call them and special order it yeah
39:10
and they would hand make them one at a time in Japan and ship it to you so
39:14
there's this this gamut there or there's this
39:17
spectrum of like go to market strategies
39:20
yeah um speaking of go to market strategies one of the best ways to go to
39:23
market is to advertise on the W show
39:26
just like FR books does yeah uh fresh books guys if you're a small business

39:40
money because you can spend your time doing your business doing your business

cool also advertising on the WAN Show oh
40:36
this is interesting I uh
40:40
what yeah because you're a total Scruff
40:43
today okay I explained this in the intro
40:46
of my personal rig video it has taken so long to get my personal rig video done
40:51
that I decided on the first day that I started working on it actually that I
40:55
wasn't going to shave or get a haircut until I was done and then it ended up being like a really
41:00
long time you don't even look like you don't even look like playoff beard you
41:05
just look like kind of unced it's really bad so like it's it's it goes pretty far
41:11
down which is rough I get this stupid bald patch thingy here which is rough
41:15
well it's not actually bald someone mentioned before that it might have like something wrong it's some weird disease
41:20
thing no there's hair there it's just thinner um and then like all of this
41:24
like if if I flare it out oh that that
41:27
legitimately goes to like here on my hand that's awful it's yeah okay so
41:32
don't don't look like Luke what I was going to add is every single time that
41:37
we do a Dollar Shave Club ad I haven't
41:40
shaved in an extended period of time and I don't know why that keeps happening
41:44
they're going to cut us off hopefully not at some point see but the thing is
41:49
when they're not doing advertisements for us I am clean shaven so it's kind of
41:53
like them being like hey wow you should fix this okay so
41:57
don't look like him we're before and after photo join Dollar Shave Club

44:06
Apple's old slogan I don't think they can do that is yeah isn't that like
44:10
apple it just works I think so it just
44:14
works um Todd Howard Todd Howard at
44:20
E3 what where did the it just works meme originate out of the loop Reddit check
44:24
that out in the meantime um in the meantime Square space is all about
44:28
taking the hassle out of having your own website whether you're you know running
44:33
a little league team in your town or whether you have a restaurant or whether
44:37
you resell Squarespace service that is
44:41
something that people totally do is they just set people up with Squarespace
44:45
sites they make them look really beautiful them for them and then they
44:49
hand over the keys and they go boom here's your website it's awesome it only
44:52
cost you a few bucks a month to maintain hi
44:55
Shane friend Shane literally does
44:58
that or has done that I guess well you
45:02
end up with a good website and from from a person who's designing websites
45:06
perspective there's no like hassle after the fact soone like okay this is a legit
45:11
story I might screw up one or two small parts of it but like the the general
45:14
framing of the story is legit buddy Shane person comes after them has spent
45:18
tons of money on a web designer wasn't going well he's like here here give me
45:22
your give me your credit card D D D D D get some on Squarespace which one do you
45:25
like that one click D D D D D fill in your stuff D D D D D okay you're done
45:30
that's all you needed everything's fine they spent like a lot of money on a web
45:34
designer and then they were way more happy with their this is like an actual
45:38
I'm leaving some details out cuz I don't know the exact amount of money right I
45:41
don't know how long they were struggling with it I don't there's like a it's a much more interesting story when you
45:45
know all the details but like that did happen something along those lines did
45:48
happen yeah dog all right so on to the
45:52
rest of the news we actually do have a lot more topics than I thought I wonder
45:55
if Colton's been adding since we started streaming there's like pages and Pages
46:00
now uh Time Warner apparently cheated customers on internet speed says the New
46:05
York attorney general I'm assuming that's what AG stands for so the
46:09
original article here is from the Press herald.com subscribers to the company's
46:14
Premium plan received internet speed as much as 70% slower than guaranteed in
46:18
their ads the lawsuit says now I think
46:22
it's been a long time since an ISP has
46:25
actually guaranteed to speed in their
46:28
ads um everyone in Canada just says up to so that they don't end up getting Su
46:34
over this stuff but um so Charter
46:38
acquired time order cable last year for 59 billion 55 billion I didn't realize
46:42
they renamed it Spectrum um the suit was
46:45
filed on Wednesday following a 16-month probe that included reviewing internal
46:49
corporate Communications and hundreds of thousands of subscriber speed tests the
46:54
investigation found that Spectrum Time Warner subscribers were getting
46:57
dramatically short changed on both speed and
47:00
reliability uh Justin vck a spokesman I
47:04
don't know how to pronounce that last name for Charter said the company is disappointed with the decision to sue
47:09
because it was based on service promises advertised before the company acquired
47:12
Time Warner Cable okay well so so
47:19
then man up yeah okay Noctua releases
47:25
three CPU coolers spe specifically for AMD ryzen this is a really
47:32
good really good sign for reasons that
47:36
might not be immediately apparent so they've got the NHL 12 so first of all
47:42
this tells us something about ryzen and that is that there will be SKS available
47:46
that will be power and thermally efficient enough to use oh whoops to use
47:52
a low profile cooler like this sorry and
47:55
hockey sticks what about hockey sticks
47:58
NHL oh thank you for that I tried we
48:02
didn't make it there I yeah I I I you
48:05
know what I'll take the blame for that one I appreciate it it's okay but I
48:08
appreciate it I mean if it was 2012 and you'd been like NHL
48:12
12 it would have been any wouldn't have gotten any better actually been terrible
48:16
okay um so anyway so it tells us that they also have a high performance cooler
48:21
they have a special edition NF uh
48:25
nhd15 so this is the se4 this is really cool because it tells
48:30
us that the scuttlebutt within the industry a lot of which doesn't make its
48:34
way into the media because of ndas but it tells us that the Scuttle butt within
48:38
the industry is that AMD is going to have a processor that is high
48:42
performance enough to justify putting a
48:45
$100 cooler on top of it right so we're
48:49
not getting like a $149.99 we priced it that way because
48:54
that's all it competes with should
48:57
breaking down like the potential expectations of the results of these
49:01
coolers H it would be a very speculative
49:05
video I don't know man I would be interested um so here's a look at ITW
49:10
the other thing this tells us okay the fact that there are three coolers tells
49:15
us that Noctua is expecting high enough
49:19
sales volume of am4 processors again
49:22
industry scuttlebutt here high enough sales volumes that one cooler company
49:28
can have three dedicated SKS for just
49:31
this platform something that they haven't done for a long time for AMD
49:37
processors so this is like indirectly
49:41
great news um there have also been some
49:44
Ryzen leaks um apparently they are not in the
49:50
dock uh ryzen leak Linus Tech tips but I
49:53
was reading about it on the Forum earlier this week uh the ryzen CPU
49:58
lineup possibly leaked so we'll just pull up the no we won't uh okay so we
50:03
will go like this thanks for saving that
50:07
okay and check this out so this was
50:11
originally posted over on wccf Tech so
50:14
take it with whatever your opinion of wccf tech is but this um so Source
50:22
ker.com ker has been known for leaking a
50:25
lot of stuff in the past actually
50:28
apparently we're going to get like a a a radon style R prefix then we're getting
50:35
these completely indecipherable model names apparently why
50:40
R um well with the graphics cards it was
50:47
oh no yeah I hate it too um so it looks
50:51
like we're going to get a Core 16 thread anywhere from 3 to 3.6 GHz with the
50:56
intention of competing against the 7700k to 6900k now this is a little confusing
51:02
to me because if they're showing off 6900k competitors which are according to
51:07
this chart expected to be at the top end that are running without AMD's clock
51:13
speed boosting technology running how is it that an 8 core 16 thread at only 600
51:19
MHz less would be competitive with a
51:22
7700 because these two perform very similarly in nonheavy threaded workloads
51:28
and this gets creamed by this in heavily
51:32
multi-threaded workloads so this is going to be very interesting in a in a
51:35
while or so I I don't know when ryzen's coming yeah have you seen that dude who
51:40
bends a pin every day or whatever on what he has an older AMD processor do
51:44
not remember which one it is I guess it literally has to be older because there
51:48
aren't any other ones right now um and he bends a pin on it I think every
51:52
single day that they don't announce the release date of rizing well that'll give
51:57
him like three years worth of pins to bend well no like he started I think
52:02
since CES so like going just this CES yeah
52:07
okay yeah that still gives him like three years of pins to bend so I think I
52:10
think he'll make it he's through like a row and a half or something of pins nice
52:15
speaking of bending pins would you guys like to see I'm not going to do straw
52:19
pull just hit me up in twitch chat would you guys like to see a guide on
52:24
repairing LGA you're really good at it so I would like
52:28
to see that guide because Luke brought me a socket that got I thought I was
52:33
screwed that got wrecked as far as I could tell when looking at it it was
52:39
pretty much a done deal I thought one of
52:42
there's a few areas where you can see damage and I thought one of them in
52:46
particular I literally thought the pin was missing so I was
52:50
like and when that's fix that when that's the case you're done yeah but I
52:55
actually have a dead LGA 2011 3 board um
53:00
it's really unfortunate it's a WS board
53:03
which is like so it's like a $600 board I got in touch with a Seuss it would
53:07
cost me like $350 to repair the socket
53:11
and I'm just like yeah I and it's still a used board
53:19
with like a used socket solded onto it now like I I don't maybe a new socket
53:25
but like it I don't know it sketched me
53:28
out but but I could I could sacrifice
53:32
what's left of it because you know what it actually kind of still works except that some okay but yeah I think for this
53:37
video to carry weight it has to be a motherboard that will work when you're
53:42
done you have to go from like look everything's in it doesn't turn on
53:46
properly take it out look how terrible it is fix boot it back up this works
53:52
okay okay I don't know if I'm like I don't know if everyone agrees with me
53:55
but I feel like that adds a lot more weight to I wish we had done it on that
53:58
board then because there were pins in the socket I don't know if you guys have
54:02
looked that closely at them but basically they stick up kind of like
54:05
this they're they're kind of flat and then they go up and then they come out
54:08
and then there's like a pad on the end there's like it's more joints than my finger has but basically
54:16
um I can't believe you just did that you're on camera
54:21
too anyway it sticks up like this these
54:25
were bent all the way over so I had to
54:28
bend them all the way back like this um it was pretty
54:33
impressive I was like he's fixed a lot
54:37
of crazy sockets before it's working though it is working it is completely
54:41
working so maybe next time we have a and we have a bent socket we'll uh we'll
54:44
tackle it because the bent pin repair video that I did back on NC Tech tips
54:50
was also done under similar circumstances I was trying to get a
54:53
video done and the the the the PIN
54:57
well broke off eventually yeah um have you watched that video no okay so the
55:02
pin was bent and in trying to B back I broke it off that CPU is still running
55:08
in my parents desktop still running anyway um so that video we filmed it as
55:14
an impromptu thing in the middle of a completely separate video that just
55:17
happened to need that I needed that processor for it and the reason that I
55:21
had to repair it rather than go into the warehouse and grab another one is we
55:24
were filming after hours and I couldn't go get another one I had no choice I had
55:29
to fix it so maybe next time maybe next time we'll uh we'll do that cool I don't
55:36
even remember what the news item that we were talking about was um oh there there
55:40
is more risen news this week though aside from the lineup being revealed um
55:44
and that lineup looks very promising the fact that AMD because there's a lot of
55:48
cost associated with bringing a skew to Market even just stupid stuff like
55:53
packaging and marketing and expecting distributors retailers to stock all this
55:57
stuff they have to be expecting sales volume if they're going to have like
56:00
what looked like 15 to 20 SKS at launch
56:04
um more good news AMD expected to provide Windows 7 drivers for their
56:09
upcoming ryzen CPUs and you might think oh well yeah of course but remember a
56:14
lot of the Windows 7 support for Modern
56:17
Hardware comes from it having
56:22
already like supported Windows 7 before
56:27
um like graphics cards stuff like that
56:30
yeah sure but there's no real guarantee once it's on Microsoft's like end of
56:36
support road map there's no real guarantee that you're going to get
56:39
proper support because rym will probably work on Vista
56:43
2 but they might not guarantee it so
56:46
official support means that they're
56:50
going to support it and they're going to make sure that there are no bugs even though it might work on other stuff so
56:55
that's a very important distinction and more good news about AMD ryzen we should
56:58
just call this the good news about ryzen show you know how with steam you can
57:04
stream games over a
57:07
network yeah there's like if you have it installed on another computer El there's
57:10
the stream button right what if you did it over the same computer using
57:15
unraid um that could be done I can't think of a good reason to do it though
57:20
not wanting to use
57:24
Windows oh like not wanting to use Windows for your actual desktop
57:28
experience so could you pass through much of well you wouldn't even
57:33
need to pass through as much resources because Linux is just lighter yeah so if
57:37
you had like a 10 Core Extreme Edition or something and you passed through like
57:40
four of your cores or you could even do six of your cores to your desktop
57:44
experience and you used four of them for a Windows gaming VM and you streamed off
57:49
of that yes that that could actually work quite
57:53
well I kind of want to do that Windows 10 is really
57:57
annoying like oh man I sort of hate it
58:01
there was even a post on pcmr today I think it hit the top where the guy has
58:05
like all notification settings and all advertisement and everything turned off
58:09
everywhere and Cortana even though disabled comes in the corner it's like
58:13
hey have you figured out your Super Bowl snacks yet like pissed off I actually
58:19
really hate using that operating system and I would love to use Windows 7 but
58:22
then we have topics like this where it's like Oh yay new hardware supports it
58:26
instead of like of course new hardware supports it so here's an interesting
58:30
little tidbit um I found a Windows 8.1
58:34
um unused license key in the office today and I had a thought you know how
58:39
we're having a lot of issues with stability with Adobe Media
58:42
incoder I am going to try putting one of our render machines on Windows 8.1 and
58:47
see what happens my brother swears by it um he uses 8.1 and suggests it to
58:52
everybody it has a lot of the optimizations uh like SMB multi- Channel
58:57
optimizations things like the much better task manager and file transfer
59:02
stuff all of that stuff um doesn't have direct X12
59:05
support who cares but I want to try it out because
59:10
one of the writer applicants like it's okay to be fair with the who cares like
59:14
it's really stupid that it doesn't have that support but it's not better yet at
59:18
least so don't worry about it it's fine so one of the writer applicants uh
59:22
worked on a video that we probably won't end up releasing just because I wasn't
59:25
there to oversee the testing methodology we paid him for the work anyway but like
59:29
so he benchmarked Windows Vista
59:34
78.1 and 10 to determine is there truly
59:38
an operating system that performs better and Windows 8.1 came on top yeah like
59:43
consistently yeah so I I'm going to try
59:46
it out and I'm going to see how it goes like yes the start menu is garbage but
59:50
you can replace it y classic start classic start yeah sh can't remember
59:56
it's start yeah it's been a while yeah um Firefox OS speaking of operating
60:01
systems is dead uh Milla kills off the
60:05
open source Internet of Things project with 50 layoffs and the original article
60:10
is from ZDNet there's not really a whole lot to add other than that we have
60:14
shifted our internal Focus or our internal approach to The Internet of
60:18
Things opportunity to step back from a focus on launching and scaling commercial products to one focused on
60:22
research and advanced development Okay
60:25
so basically it's not there yet so we'll like hire a team later yeah
60:34
um yeah the Nintendo online service will cost less than $30 a year apparently
60:39
that's very reasonable but unlike PlayStation Network PSN and like other
60:44
things your monthly like random little game that you get uh you don't get to
60:49
keep it so you essentially get like a random
60:53
game for a month and then it's
60:56
gone okay so you lose like a lot of the
61:00
benefit and save half the money so if you didn't care at all about the games
61:04
that you would get included I'm not going to say for free included with the
61:08
other services um then this is better because
61:12
it's cheaper but then I think a lot of the value proposition of this is going
61:17
to be figured out when they actually roll it out because they're new to the
61:21
kind of party right and their online
61:24
services have been AB absolute trash yeah so now that they're charging for it
61:29
they better step their game up and I love how they just shut them down like I
61:33
really liked playing Mario Kart DS and they're just
61:38
like peace it's gone and there's no you
61:41
know Community replacement option just yep that thing that you enjoyed about
61:46
that thing you bought maybe you should have played it more when it was still available bro um okay well we'll see how
61:51
that goes for them yeah there's going to be a lot of let's see how that goes for them there's a lot of speculation that
61:56
if switch isn't like a resounding success Nintendo is not going to do
62:00
another living room console um just move to but then this is
62:06
hard to even Define as a living room console there's been a lot of talk about
62:09
that it's it's basically a hybrid and like honestly wow using it in handheld
62:15
mode is amazing and like handheld mode and tabletop mode were the main
62:19
interesting things honestly when I was using the like TV mode experience it was
62:24
good but it was just good the handheld mode was awesome it
62:28
felt like the best version of a DS just because the screen is huge and like if
62:32
you take the controllers off it's actually pretty easy to pack somewhere
62:36
um certain games like if you get Zelda certain editions of Zelda like the
62:41
special editions and stuff come with a sleeve so you can take your switch with
62:45
you like they're very much approaching it from a mobile standard uh the
62:49
original article here is from RS Technica posted by murazaki or something
62:54
like that on the Forum in NVIDIA to stop people from reselling promotional game
62:59
codes by tying the codes to Hardware so
63:02
to be clear uh the game is not tied to that video card
63:07
forever so if you were to change your video card down the road you still get
63:11
to keep it but Redeeming the game permanently adds the game to the
63:15
appropriate third party service and they have confirmed that GeForce experience
63:19
will check that the user has installed a qualifying graphics card but again the
63:24
game will not be permanently linked to the hardware get it I'm not thrilled
63:27
about it because I personally would often use like bundled games as offset
63:33
the cost of your card yeah um like when
63:37
I already owned it it's just kind of a bummer if I already bought it
63:42
um so yeah that sucks uh we've talked
63:46
about that already LG's 5K monitor this
63:49
was originally posted by Good Bites is not cooperating well with routers and LG
63:55
is recommending keeping your monitor at least 7t away from your router
64:01
apparently once the router oh they don't have a picture of it happening or
64:04
anything but apparently once the router gets too close it causes interference
64:09
with the display and causes it to uh not
64:12
work properly so it can flicker disconnect or freeze the computer due to
64:17
electromagnetic interference LG has acknowledged the
64:21
problem um but they don't have anything
64:25
speciic specific that they're saying about what they plan to do to address
64:30
it I think that's pretty much it for today yep that's it you want to talk
64:35
about the 58 gab HD texture pack for Fallout 4 really quick sure the okay so
64:40
basically what I just said 58 Gigabyte HD texture pack for Fallout 4 that's
64:45
crazy uh your PC will need to meet or exceed the recommended specs to run this
64:50
pack the recommended specs that they're talking about is Windows 7 8 or 10 and
64:54
Intel Core i750 8 20K or better a GTX
64:58
1080 8 gig or better and 8 gigs of RAM
65:03
or better that looks incredible though yeah
65:08
with your new personal rig you'll be able to chew through that and maybe stream it Wicked all right so thanks for
65:14
tuning in to the W show guys we will see you again next week same bat Time same
65:20
bad Channel yay
65:26
oh right the outro well the intro but like with no yeah there's no audio I
65:31
could try and find the audio one um I don't know where Ed put it is
65:39
someone else bring in a foam roller is this for filming I have no idea I just
65:44
don't question things anymore intro is there something that he
65:49
modified today nope I have no idea okay and
