no you won't see ips theoretically yes ready okay we're live
0:06
oh man i'm gonna do the worst scariest
0:09
thing in the world but is the audio okay why would you do that
0:14
why would you oh no no okay i are going to straw poll i am going to
0:19
do the worst scariest thing ever and i'm going to promote a
0:24
a fan created a fan created thing here i'm posting
0:29
this in the chat my friends is time to
0:32
play when job what is this
0:38
it automatically generates my god a bingo card no you shouldn't be looking
0:43
at it because i've only seen a couple of them myself
0:47
but basically it's kind of like a like it's like a
0:51
drinking game like a take a shot every time luke laughs too loud
0:55
or Linus apologizes for being late i'm sorry we're late by the way um
1:00
except it's bingo you don't win anything other than satisfaction and uh thank you
1:07
we should okay and it's just a fun game it's a fun game to play you go to
1:11
wanchobingo.com for all i know by the time people are
1:14
watching the archive of this stream will have it'll have been converted to a
1:18
phishing scam so probably don't do it but yeah but anyway for right now this
1:23
moment it automatically like pseudo
1:26
randomly generates a bingo card out of a bunch of possible things that can happen
1:31
during the lan show and you get to fill it out while you watch so we should
1:37
in my opinion gamify watching the WAN Show even more than that so even more
1:41
than that you can get bots in the chat so you should drink every time you hit
1:46
one one one uh cell and then you should
1:49
have to drink like i don't know what do you have to do when you when you
1:53
actually get get a row like just like skull something yeah yeah yeah totally
1:58
okay okay what else do you want to get so i was thinking if we if we bring a bot in
2:02
that manages the chat and you can post like you should whoever made this bingo
2:07
thing should make you unique identifier keys for every single person that's
2:10
playing so when the bingo game is done you just post your key in chat and it
2:15
takes your score from that website and actually like attaches it to your
2:19
username on the ldt like WAN Show chat so you should be able
2:23
to gain scores and then every once in a while you should be able to do like
2:26
exclamation mark brag and it'll say what your overall score is why are people
2:31
subscribing we've had a twitch subscriber two two
2:37
three three twitch prime subscribers
2:40
and a paid subscriber since we started
2:43
another one right there no no that's the one i was talking about okay oh okay
2:46
apparently brandon potts has been subscribed for 17 months in a row
2:51
17 months 4 99 x 17 actually this is not difficult
2:58
math 85 you're basically a
3:02
hero more twitch prime you only get half of that you only get well no i know but
3:07
that doesn't that doesn't make what the heck 15 months in a row for
3:11
secure is this just all coming up now because like we we never stream basically yeah
3:17
so because you're live now people will do their renewals because they get to
3:22
post see how that's gray yeah yeah yeah all your bases are belong to us so he
3:26
was able to send that message along with his subscriber renewal so that it showed
3:30
up gray along with everything else you know i appreciate the old memes it makes
3:34
me feel less old you know anytime i see an all of your face yeah or like uh you
3:39
know ultimate showdown of ultimate destiny you know any of that kind of
3:42
stuff i kind of go you know what this is great this is great i feel young right
3:47
now in this moment and then i'm like
3:53
so it doesn't last very long we got a great show for you guys today a
3:56
lot of great topics actually there's some pretty crap topics uh we'll talk a
4:00
little bit about meltdown and spectre maybe luke could talk a little bit about
4:04
how they've affected Floatplane development it's particularly sucked for
4:08
us for like reasons that aren't immediately apparent but yeah i'll get into it yup um with all that said we
4:13
also have in our news Intel hits a 17-year high on their sales outlook
4:19
great um another another new record the
4:22
biggest crypto hack ever so the the crypto lovers will be like no
4:27
and the crypto haters will be like yeah and uh we'll probably be somewhere in
4:32
between yeah and then um
4:35
wow this new google app lets anyone publish a local news story that sounds
4:40
like it sounds like it won't be terrible at all every single thing posted there
4:44
will be triple a level content not 100
4:47
not fake news it sounds like facebook
4:53
oh my god it sort of does all right let's roll the intro
4:58
oh man
5:01
oh my god you can read hyper local stories about your community right from
5:05
your phone just like the local paper that we all
5:08
throw away the second it lands on our doorstep because we don't care
5:13
do people actually care you know what i shouldn't say that people do actually
5:18
care about local news like uh it was cool it was cool getting
5:22
in the newspaper like when i was younger like john really cares about like
5:27
where people are from and like what they're doing now or whatever like he
5:32
he's like really into like who else is a you know duke alumnus or like from his
5:38
family or whatever like alumni affiliation kind of thing is much
5:41
stronger in the states though yeah i don't think people care nearly as
5:45
much up here i think that's a geographical difference to a certain degree you and i also never graduated
5:50
fair i was close
5:55
i went through like most of the process oh lord
5:58
oh we got a straw pull this though straw poll dot me uh local news local
6:04
news i'm like okay i went to a football game at the u of a university
6:09
of arizona and i went to a what was it a
6:13
basketball game or something
6:16
at uvic when i went to school there yeah and
6:20
like i'm talking like arizona school versus school in bc yeah and the the
6:25
difference was astronomical the the the
6:29
like like the like the atmosphere i was into it when we were in arizona it
6:33
wasn't even my school and i was like this is sick there was people like
6:37
giving out free beer couldn't drink it pop and like burgers and hot dogs in the
6:42
parking lot like party big cookies basically not even necessarily party
6:45
just like come on join the family kind of situation so like barbecue yeah it
6:50
was barbecue family barbecue just in the parking lot so when we're walking from
6:53
our car to the stadium they're like hey do you want some stuff
6:56
so my understanding is that some canadian sports are kind of like that
7:00
like the grey cup is supposed to be super talented
7:04
yeah it is but like that's one day a year yeah and this was
7:07
and no random college game no other cfl
7:10
game is like that yeah it was it wasn't a championship game it was it was just
7:15
whatever there was like a big parade with the music people i don't know what
7:18
you call them again band no marching band marching band a marching band a big
7:23
musical you're so fired you're so fired get out of here that's
7:29
fair that's fair um and like the game was amazing anytime anyone scored if
7:33
there's the other team everyone is all upset if it was their
7:37
team the entire arena blew up basketball
7:42
it happens a lot yeah like that's my problem no that was football that was
7:46
football that was the one in america was football the one in canada was i don't
7:49
even remember because it didn't matter i see the stage might as well be
7:53
volleyball no offense volleyball lots of fun to
7:56
play not much of a spectator sport
8:00
about half the arena was empty right um
8:04
there was some like sponsor stuff and then i think we left like three
8:07
quarters way through because we were just bored it was just like so different
8:11
and i could understand how it fosters like school mentality if it's mr nixon
8:16
mr nix 1001 hell we tailgate for any
8:19
reason yeah okay it's a thing fair
8:22
enough and it's cool though it makes you feel a part of it and then you you you
8:27
feel a part of it the second you show up because of the tailgating okay i didn't
8:30
say beach volleyball i said volleyball they are not the same
8:35
sport at all they literally don't even have the same number of people they
8:39
don't take okay they don't take place in the same place they don't have the same
8:43
number of people on the team and
8:46
one of them gets watched once every four years
8:49
there you go that's the difference between volleyball and beach volleyball
8:53
yeah um and to be clear i'm not hating like i
8:57
love anything with a net
9:00
uh someone said uh what's with tailgating is an excuse to drink in
9:04
public okay yeah i guess so because in a lot of
9:09
parts of the states that's illegal right i'm gonna start banning people who post
9:13
the holy crap geno you need to stop
9:17
you need to calm down there we go guy posted the same message
9:22
like a bajillion times anyways um
9:25
what were we asking i don't know something about anyways yeah i understand how it facilitates
9:30
the like i care about this community environment right because immediately
9:34
when you show up you're taken care of in a certain degree you're fed
9:38
right you're you're taken care of you're invited in just like insanity to me
9:41
because like i can't imagine a situation where i would go anywhere and i would be
9:46
fed by someone for no reason yeah which like seems pretty cool like
9:50
it is pretty cool yeah and it was good stuff like it it was yeah i don't know
9:54
it was good all right so local news um someone gave me a poster because i
9:59
didn't have any like shirt or anything to hold so they were
10:02
like here's a poster of the team so i could hold up a thing right it was cool
10:06
i had it in my room for a long time anyways 53 of you yes local news and uh
10:12
47 of you know local news so we seem to be split
10:15
right about down the middle people who care or don't care about local news mind
10:18
you i mean okay if google can capture 53 percent of the general population using
10:23
this service then um it's clear to me that there's your phone
10:27
was trying to listen to you'd be gonna be lesser going to be lesser lesser
10:31
quality local news than ever before your phone's like what was that
10:35
you want this app no no i don't
10:40
uh i guess we might as well jump into that as our first topic since we've like
10:44
kind of been talking about it for a while um there you go bulletin from google is
10:49
what it's called so it's like a bulletin board except
10:54
it's an app for contributing hyper local stories about your community for your
10:58
community right from your phone uh you can put a spotlight on inspiring
11:02
stories that aren't being told so basically news is dead and this is the
11:07
replacement i mean this is democratization of news i mean this is
11:10
something we did a piece a little while back it was not a very successful piece where i made like a streaming backpack
11:15
yeah and i was like this is the future of news people just
11:19
being somewhere and streaming and like this is like what i would consider to be
11:24
i think the reason why that didn't work that well was you were slightly too
11:27
ahead of the curve maybe and the setup was kind of janky well yeah but now and
11:32
things have gotten better to be able to make the setup better yeah um but now
11:36
irl streaming with backpacks is like a thing and it wasn't really when you made
11:40
that well whatever i was trying um
11:43
thought it was a cool idea so i was like okay but a step above
11:47
you know just having a phone out or whatever would be building yourself like
11:51
a transmission processing backpack so that you can uh so you can transcode to
11:56
multiple destinations so that you have failover for your
12:01
multiple sim cards a nice high high resolution and better audio quality
12:06
camera so that the feed isn't potato level and this is just sort of um
12:12
it's it's just another branch down that same path where ultimately
12:18
local news stations are dying this is not debatable it's not you know what
12:24
it's stoppable i don't think it is this is i'm just i'm just reading like
12:27
there's one line here people everywhere want to know what is going on in their backyard at a very local level ranging
12:32
from local bookstore readings to high school sporting events to information
12:36
about local street closures if this is curated well enough and sorted well
12:41
enough because there is so many things that i will not care about yep but also on like
12:47
a friday i might be like man
12:51
what is there to do right now what am i going to do this weekend so and if i can do like events near me
12:56
i've been blown away
12:59
by the number of things that go on in the community of
13:04
surrey yeah so that for example i was
13:07
dropping my son off for preschool one morning and i just saw like a sign in
13:13
the foyer that was like hey we're doing uh we're doing a starry night movie
13:18
night thing that's free there's face painting
13:22
there's uh i forget what else there was but there was like some activities to do
13:25
for kids and then at dusk they were gonna
13:30
bring out the big blow up you know portable projector screen thing and then
13:34
they just had like it looked like one of the staff just like brought their projector from home and fired it at it
13:39
it was fine like it was cool it was fun they had speakers which was good that's
13:42
a plus um and they played sing i'm sure they
13:45
didn't have a license for it but you know whatever because it's just a janky
13:49
stupid local event that nobody even knows about anyway but that was that was the issue nobody
13:53
knew about it so it was actually reasonably well attended given how
13:56
difficult it was to find out about it but then i started looking into it and
13:59
there's like tons of stuff like that it would be cool lots to do
14:04
because like zayn i i can't pronounce his last name
14:07
but zane from daily hive vancouver is a good curator of local stuff right okay
14:12
but like a lot of people don't even know that yeah i would have no way of knowing
14:16
that yeah yeah so like if he can post his awesome articles that go to daily
14:20
hive and he manages people and stuff into i believe are we changing our mind
14:23
about this a little bit because we were kind of hating on it yeah and now i'm
14:27
down okay okay if it's done properly okay okay and like one thing that i
14:31
would like to is if these are able to be sourced and if the
14:36
source can make money okay so it doesn't
14:39
look like there's a monetization strategy but this is interesting
14:42
google is planning to work with local news organizations to help them find and
14:47
potentially publish some of the stories as long as they give credit to the
14:51
original authors so they've already got a strategy to
14:55
uh to sort of propagate awareness of the
14:58
bulletin app through the medium that it is ultimately
15:02
going to rip late that's awkward isn't that awful i mean it's like you know it
15:08
was going to happen anyway it's just like can you imagine can you imagine this
15:12
like google walking in and pitching this to a local news organization so ah
15:16
you know this is okay hold on i don't think so i don't think it works that way
15:20
it just says giving credit to their authors not
15:24
the platform yeah but yeah yeah let's see okay let's see yeah
15:30
because i can picture this google walking in and going yeah so this is
15:33
great you guys you know realistically you can't lay off
15:36
any more staff because there's like four people here but you know so you're not
15:40
saving any money but you're like able to get more done with the money you already
15:44
saved because you have no money um we'll just we'll get all the local news
15:48
stories for you and then you can just sit and talk about them we're gonna be
15:52
like we're gonna be like local reddit except there already is local reddit so
15:56
you know what we're like curated right hopefully wait reddit is curated okay
16:00
it's reddit um the
16:05
the local reddit for around here is terrible yeah okay or vancouver
16:09
really bad that's fair okay so there you go the app is in a limited pilot in just
16:14
two cities um seemingly arbitrary nashville and oakland uh they're
16:18
apparently both google fiber cities so i was just gonna say that's not that random because of google fiber and it
16:23
also says they have high poverty rates and lie beyond the focus of the big
16:27
media hubs oh that's cool okay so cool
16:30
neat all right all right so so google bulletin we're down
16:34
now really depends on how they do it okay i think there is absolutely the
16:39
potential for me to be down and have it installed on my phone and use it quite often there's also the potential for it
16:43
to be a giant steaming heap of garbage okay never ever use it cool it's free
16:47
it's lightweight for telling a story by capturing photos and this is it
16:51
that's it wow okay um
16:55
got it impactful i don't know how james wrote
16:58
so many notes on that yeah good job
17:01
maybe you should write for bulletin
17:07
no one will pay you but all right there you go so
17:11
this is from the original source is from newsroom.Intel.com
17:18
root cause of the reboot issue identified they have updated guidance
17:22
for customers and partners so the saga
17:25
continues with the whole meltdown
17:28
spectre thing so over the weekend they began rolling
17:32
out an early version of an updated solution to the reboot issues that they
17:36
reported on january 11th just so you know what what is that
17:40
oh is that the quick rollout yeah interesting good job aj yeah good job aj
17:45
sorry keep going um something something reboot issues early
17:49
version make a final release available once testing is being completed but uh
17:53
basically um
17:56
apologize for the disruption this change in guidance may cause the security of
17:59
our product is critical at Intel etc touch okay let's get to our notes here
18:07
so as of january 11th Intel was notified that the first patch they issued for
18:10
meltdown inspector vulnerabilities was causing random reboot issues it was
18:13
later learned that the bug was affecting haswell and broadwell platforms
18:18
and uh on january 22nd they made a blog post advising that oem's cloud service
18:22
provider system manufacturer software vendors and end users stop the
18:25
deployment of current versions of the patches as they may introduce higher
18:28
than higher than expected reboots
18:32
and and other unpredictable system behavior
18:36
so let's let's jump into our uh this was posted originally by evan air on the
18:41
forum and our next one is from vegetable stew and the original article is from pc
18:44
world this is just another update on meltdown inspector uh let's go ahead and
18:48
pull this up actually i've remembered there's no
18:51
point in me going over my stuff because we covered it on the first show that we covered oh okay so Intel's plan to fix
18:58
meltdown in silicon apparently raises more questions than it answers so Intel
19:05
has said that they plan to deploy a hardware fix
19:10
so these will be silicon based changes to future products that directly address
19:14
the spectre and meltdown threads threats those products will begin appearing
19:19
later this year
19:22
Intel's chief executive brian krzenich told investors
19:26
i've assigned some of the very best minds at Intel my best people are on it
19:30
the best i've assigned the best they're the best people um
19:35
you know what just because i didn't watch that particular episode of the lan
19:38
show can you give me the tl dr of how oh no okay director of affected Floatplane
19:43
i'm gonna forget part of it which is the technicality of
19:46
exactly why this happens this way but we use a piece
19:49
of software for virtual machines and we use a version of it that's free
19:55
and there's a version of it that's paid i don't remember exactly the reason why
19:59
we used the other one i covered it properly last time aj is going to skim
20:02
me alive um i believe that the reason why we had to
20:06
use the paid one now is that's the only one that got the update to manage this
20:11
stuff um i don't remember why we were able to
20:16
use the free one before though yeah i think the free one's just older versions
20:20
so if we wanted to not be super owned by
20:24
meltdown well yeah i believe it's meltdown specifically i could be wrong
20:27
though i forget which one is which um then we needed to upgrade that upgrade
20:31
would have been at the cost of 900.
20:34
per CPU like per physical CPU per physical CPU
20:40
um so that's kind of a little bit of a unique situation because most people are
20:44
like oh no our things are vulnerable now we have to patch oh no we patched
20:48
performance went way down we saw that with fortnite the game um
20:52
actually if you want to look at a really really cool rundown of how this has how
20:56
this could potentially affect an organization check out fortnite's
21:01
breakdown of how it impacted their servers it was actually really really
21:04
good graphs and write-ups and stuff that they did but yeah our biggest issue was like hey
21:09
we want to not be vulnerable
21:12
so super expensive amounts of money now
21:17
through a lot of brain jiggering and planning and all
21:21
this other kind of stuff i do not want to update now Windows get out of my face
21:25
please um we have a plan and everything's fine and
21:29
whatnot but like pilpari says should have just used AMD
21:34
okay you should breed more
21:40
there's a wand show i believe
21:43
i believe it was uh
21:46
was it just before ces you should read more ouch okay aside from just reading
21:52
more what AMD servers
21:56
that that's part of the read more that i'm talking about actually we looked
21:59
into this we were like hey let's just do that
22:04
no not a thing what AMD servers yeah we're not building our own servers just in
22:08
case anyone's how many epics do you really think they've shipped
22:12
most like just saying so we use ovh for Floatplane people are
22:17
like epic which by the way wasn't released when we began building out
22:20
floatplanes infrastructure okay yeah one for that two we're not hand building
22:24
every server that we use for flow plane uh we're essentially renting servers off
22:28
of ovh which is what most people do that are using dedicated
22:33
stuff if they're not using dedicate or public cloud but if they are using
22:37
public cloud type situations you don't get the choice anyways yeah you use
22:41
whatever validated setup which by the way someone
22:46
like ovh is going to have hardware on
22:49
hand whether it's hard drives ssds sometimes motherboards sometimes
22:54
they're really slow no no that's not what i'm talking about no no they're
22:57
they're gonna have hardware oh yeah yeah yeah for upcoming for upcoming platforms
23:02
we're talking three six nine months in advance if you're an important partner
23:08
that's buying literally thousands upon thousands of xeon cpus
23:13
they make sure that you've got this stuff for validation well ahead of time
23:17
so to imagine for a second that epic which
23:21
launched what in august in august they announced it i think
23:25
something like that whatever sometime in the summer to imagine that that's that's
23:29
anywhere near a for rental server it's a joke i've
23:33
wanted a server with one of those for a while
23:36
this isn't like a they're only using Intel thing it's basically the only
23:40
option um yeah because they typically only have like here's our good better
23:44
best extreme they're just going to have a handful of validated builds
23:49
and that's it and there are some more options sometimes but we need fairly
23:53
specific things yeah and there are exceptions like we had a data center
23:56
before that would allow us to ship our own hardware there yeah except they were
24:00
just except they were terrible yeah like it was a cool feature did we ever get
24:04
that server no no they were supposed to ship it back to us
24:08
those faster i never got it
24:13
that was fast that had some decent driving i know
24:19
it had a bunch of enterprise drives in it we shipped them those enterprise
24:22
drives those bastards we could be mining bursts
24:26
on those i know if we could ever finish plotting them no
24:31
that's not gonna i've gotten one and a half drives in that 47 drive machine
24:36
GPU mining or gp plotting um no i'm not
24:39
GPU plotting because i put in a GPU and it like was supposed to work
24:42
automatically and then it just didn't it doesn't work automatically oh okay i'll
24:46
i can send you all the dots i'll have to figure it out i'll have to figure it out anyway i also have a dual xeon system
24:51
that i can start plotting on as well and you can just
24:54
move drives over and then you can just because you just need to import the plot file location yes so i'll figure it out
24:59
i'll figure it out but basically i'm doing a mining side advanced side quest
25:03
adventure um where we're looking at hard drive based
25:08
mining it's weird it's weird it's pretty cool but it's weird
25:13
it's fun i guess but
25:17
Linus is evading the question i'm not evading the question no we're doing we're doing a video
25:23
um all right so let me have a look
25:27
what else we got for topics you're getting one question yeah i didn't evade the question yes mining yes happening i
25:33
mean we're doing a whole video series around it what did you guys think was going on
25:38
what question was there about you mining i don't know i know i'm so confused yeah
25:42
i said 47 drives does that not sound like first coin mining what else would i
25:46
be doing with 47 drives other than petabyte project which by the way
25:51
um i had a couple people internally telling me we should be mining on the
25:54
inactive petabyte server uh super not an option because
25:59
oh you know what i actually don't have oh no i do i do have it i do have it
26:03
super not an option because check this out oh my god
26:06
phase one of the vault is like oh
26:11
phase one of the uh you might wanna switch the no no that's fine
26:18
i just get scared no no no it's fine it's fine everything is okay
26:24
extra large icons no no i hate extra large icons no i hate large icons which
26:28
ones do i want uh medium icons
26:32
this is the quality content you all come to WAN Show to see just happened where's
26:37
the where's the where's the the the amount
26:40
what where's where's the just proper capacity right
26:44
click properties no no no everyone gives you a fancy gui
26:48
no no no i refuse
26:51
conte oh that's an interesting one tiles tiles is the one so i've only got 40
26:57
terabytes left and when you factor in that z drive
27:01
needs an offload so this is the NVMe server we're going to have like 20
27:07
terabytes left in the first stage
27:11
excuse me sorry i've been sick since christmas it's ridiculous yeah i've been
27:15
a little um that's my girlfriend's fault though
27:18
completely it's entirely her fault i was fine she came over and was like i'm not
27:23
sick and then like hours later was just like coughing up a storm and i was like
27:28
thanks for that no i'm now i'm sick thanks hun
27:32
um yeah so we're gonna have to roll out the second one very very soon yeah and you
27:37
don't wanna so mining on hard drives is a very new
27:41
frontier and there's not very much data in terms of like how bad it is for your
27:45
drive or anything yeah and those are expensive drives they're like supposed
27:48
to be reliable and stuff yeah speaking of crypto actually let's jump into this
27:53
so the source here is coindesk.com coincheck confirms the reason why you
27:59
should not use online exchange wallets as much as
28:03
possible
28:09
so i'll tell you guys um
28:13
most of the crypto that i own and i do have some
28:17
i bought on an exchange um
28:21
don't show them this yeah oh okay
28:24
so most of what i own i bought on an exchange
28:29
but it is not on the exchange anymore yeah
28:32
and the reason for that is that while an exchange is really convenient so i
28:37
actually had it on there for like a week while i was waiting for my hardware
28:40
wallet yeah uh while in exchange is very convenient
28:44
um when you and when it was on there i was like oh well i'll sell some of that
28:48
and i'll buy some of that and i'll do this and like actually
28:52
i i played it right which is not an indication necessarily of skill but i
28:57
played it right is that a really good time to be playing yes it was yeah i won
29:01
bigger than i lost and that worked out really well
29:05
but the way to do it is you get everything
29:08
off the exchange and you keep it in a hardware wallet preferably one with no
29:12
online access whatsoever so there are dedicated devices for that
29:17
strongly recommend that yep and if you've got everything in an offline
29:20
wallet then if an exchange gets hacked
29:25
your crypto will not be part of the crypto that gets
29:31
absconded yeah yeah wow 58 billion yen approximately 533
29:38
million us dollars
29:41
yeah the precise amount stolen may not be
29:44
fully known until further checks have been carried out
29:48
into the intrusion ha ha
29:54
at least over four hundred million do you hear about the
29:57
wow uh yeah never mind we'll move on sorry i'm
30:00
just um no it's crazy so the price of
30:04
the coin which is specifically nem i'm not entirely sure which one that is
30:08
because there's 10 billion different ones um but nem coin the price of that
30:12
went down 13 percent which isn't even like in the grand scheme of how fast
30:18
coin value is not even that bad it's like an average saturday like it's
30:23
it's not that big of a deal
30:27
um so it looks like it's likely greater than the amount stolen from mount gox in
30:31
2014 when converted cash yeah 340
30:34
million dollars though it should be noted that
30:38
given how much less cryptocurrencies were worth in 2014 that proportionally
30:43
this is a smaller impact if you convert
30:46
up mount gox's theft to what it would be valued at now
30:50
yeah or especially a month ago yeah yeah
30:55
so that's a thing that happened um you know as usual you're going to have
31:00
people on all sides of this whole
31:03
this whole crypto thing that's going on here um the bottom line is this you know
31:09
i don't think either of us is anti-crypto
31:12
are you anti-crypto i i recognize a lot
31:16
of the bad things that are associated with it um crypto as a whole i think is
31:21
actually really good i don't know if you can blockchain technology blockchain
31:24
technology yeah i don't know if you've heard what the canadian government's planning on doing with that yeah
31:28
absolutely super cool do you want to click so okay i only know rough details
31:32
about this so i could get some of it wrong it's not a topic for this week but
31:35
the canadian government has spoken publicly about the interest of adopting
31:39
blockchain technology for some of its internal spending of tax money
31:44
so you can see where tax money is being spent and how
31:47
it's being spent that is awesome because i have said my entire life that i
31:52
personally i'm going to show slight amounts of political
31:56
alignment here but i have no idea anymore what am i going to do fire you
31:59
hey hey i have no issue really with taxes but i would like to know what my
32:03
taxes are going towards yeah it's annoying having a whole bunch of money taken from you and being like i have no
32:08
idea what i just improved because it's cool to think of like i am contributing
32:12
to society with this money yeah but it would be nice to be able to be like oh
32:16
there it goes oh it helped fix that road
32:19
or it yeah contributed to that school that would be a lot more fulfilling x
32:23
percentage of it went to federal issues wide percentage of it went to local
32:27
issues you know that would really give me a better idea of you know what i
32:31
would want to say at a town hall meeting or whatever else and like sure maybe
32:35
some of it went towards uh trudeau's lunch when he was on a trip that has to
32:40
be paid for somehow i'm not going to feel bad about that i just want to know
32:43
what it's doing it'll feel cool if i can know what it's doing
32:46
um mr nick says post in chat this is funny um
32:50
but but i think both of us both of us
32:54
hold crypto i'm i'm long a couple of different currencies um
32:58
so take that for what it is but mr nix's
33:02
post here in the forum basically sums up the biggest problem with it right now
33:06
wow that's worth a hundred thousand dollars i hope you know what to do with
33:10
your forty seven thousand dollars if you want go ahead and spend that two hundred
33:13
and three thousand dollars
33:19
the volatility is real oh yeah and the lack of regulation something that gets
33:24
pitched as a benefit of cryptocurrency is a huge issue it is also a huge
33:28
problem yeah because there's no well there's there's there's no
33:33
regulation and there's great things that come with
33:36
that and there's terrible things that come with that there's terrible things that come with that there's basically no
33:40
there's no laws that prevent people from manipulating this much smaller and
33:44
easier to manipulate market and oh damn has it happened yeah a lot i mean there
33:49
was that recent example with uh was it which one's the bad one bitcoin gold
33:54
oh uh gold or cash which one was the one that
33:57
was particularly brutal i don't remember which one but the coin itself wasn't the
34:01
problem yeah it was how it was set up and how it was
34:05
promoted and how the other coins were temporarily abused around its
34:09
inauguration and all the coin itself was not a problem it was the things that
34:13
would not be legal in normal markets that happened around it
34:17
but i don't i think it's cash i don't even remember i don't remember sorry
34:21
guys people are saying it was bitcoin cash yeah um yeah yeah so i you know i
34:25
think we should we should consider doing our own coin
34:30
so this is yeah yeah we should seriously as part of mining
34:35
adventures oh i just got stress pains in my neck as part of mining adventure
34:40
we should do we should be like here's all the ways this can be manipulated
34:45
we're doing it so you should don't buy this yeah you should list out like these
34:48
are all the potential things that we could do yeah to abuse the creation of
34:52
this coin these are the things that we're going to do late coin
34:56
wow oh my god
35:00
okay go ahead i'm sorry i'm still listening there's got to be some way so
35:03
that like everyone that's current oh my god if you could make that would be such
35:07
an interesting version of mining if you sit in twitch chat and there's a
35:11
bot that registers that you're in twitch chat and then it like sends you coins
35:16
based on how long you were in twitch chat before the show went live but after
35:20
it was supposed to go live so you make money by waiting
35:28
too complicated we're just gonna if we do this i'm sure we're just gonna copy
35:31
someone else's open source code for their coin and do nothing unique um but
35:35
that's what most people do anyways so it's fine
35:38
people are saying that exists lots of people want Floatplane coin
35:42
people want uh does anyone want Linus coin float coin wan coin
35:47
litecoin lots of late coins coin
35:50
litecoin float coin float coin luke coin
35:53
heck yeah heck yeah so you know i think
35:56
it would be a really interesting oh my god that's how we can that's how we can
36:00
reward the bingo
36:08
that's how we can distribute coins at the beginning
36:11
so we can generate a whole bunch we can distribute them through the bingo game
36:16
so that people want more and then you can brag and chat with how much you have
36:19
so there's like a social status thing so you and but you can buy social status
36:24
because that's how dirty this whole i'm with samurai salesman luke go home
36:31
all right why don't we get into the way that we actually make money around here heck
36:36
yeah sponsors sponsor number one is
36:43
spectrum
36:46
do you find yourself staring at a monitor all day
36:50
that can be hard on your eyes over time and make it tougher to fall asleep well
36:54
spectrum is an affordable long-term solution to staring at a computer screen
36:58
using a software solution like flux or twilight will not give you the same type
37:03
of blue light filtering that these stylish glasses do their features
37:07
include that they're stylish also
37:11
that they're made of glass high quality one year warranty and the product is
37:15
extremely durable another feature includes another feature is low qual low
37:20
cut low color distortion so compared to other blue light
37:25
filtering lenses that i've seen before i don't feel like i'm just looking at the
37:30
world through a blue lens yeah yeah light sources do look more yellow it is
37:35
a little bit of yellowing but not very much but red stuff is still like mostly
37:38
red everything just seems like it has an extremely mild warming filter and
37:42
they're the highest rated among their competitors on amazon so check them out
37:46
at spectrumglasses.com
37:50
prospect or at the link below i'll go ahead and
37:53
post that in the chat and you can save 10 off spectrum glasses using offer code
37:58
Linus i think it's pro spec boom oh prospect i could be wrong
38:02
that makes sense you know what i'm just gonna go with the genius link because
38:06
that's what i know luke that's what i know that's what my genius is all right
38:11
so do we have any do we have no we're gonna do fresh books first and
38:16
then we're gonna get upset at the people who stole our stuff
38:19
freshbooks freshbooks is the super simple to use invoicing tool that
38:24
actually does a lot more than just allow you to create and send slick looking
38:28
invoices quickly it helps you track your time with their timesheet function
38:32
manage your expenses and keep track of who owes you what it allows you to take
38:37
payment on your terms even allowing you to take deposits on your work before you
38:42
begin and their mobile app has all the functionality of the desktop version
38:45
including allowing you to track your time track expenses as you go and well
38:50
of course send invoices one of the best things about it is that you can see when
38:54
your client has seen your invoice and put an end to the guessing games and if
38:58
you have any questions you can reach out to their support staff where you will speak to a real live human no phone tree
39:04
no escalations no return calls just answers go to freshbooks.com when and
39:09
enter when in the how did you hear about us section when you sign up for your
39:13
30-day free trial i'm gonna go ahead and link that in the
39:16
twitch chat as well if you guys run like a small-time tech repair shop or
39:20
which is gotta still be common it was super common when we were
39:25
it's gotta still be common like i did tech work when i was in high school so
39:29
did i yeah like there's like no good reason that i can think of not to make
39:33
some money on the side if you're just passionate about it like these days it might be more based around fixing mobile
39:38
phones and stuff but there's there's still tech work to do oh absolutely like
39:42
battery swaps yeah what do you like these
39:48
are we getting the the ed naught of approval i think so you like the thick
39:51
frames on me hey yeah okay huh you know it's funny i never thought
39:55
of myself as a thick frame guy like i don't know have you seen my
39:58
prescription glasses yeah yeah they're like they're small they're small
40:04
i i could pull this off you think i probably need like an overall style
40:07
update though
40:22
all right bringing us to our last sponsor savage jerky
40:27
so hey actually hey Colton are you still
40:30
there okay so Colton
40:34
Colton ran an investigation Colton ran an investigation come on come
40:38
on over here come on over here i'm like all angry like what
40:42
we need we need inspector Colton back i think remember when you solved the
40:45
mystery of people of the utensils yes i do that
40:49
okay my finest pieces of work here finest company finest Channel Super Fun
40:53
one of the finest Channel Super Fun episodes of all time and probably the
40:57
single most valuable thing Colton has done since he began his employment here
41:03
let's go a little bit
41:07
we have to solve another mystery who took our savage turkey i don't know man i've
41:12
been i i sent a message to like our group a group chat and and no responses i
41:17
looked around the office somebody ate it but the thing is is that we had a lot we
41:21
had a lot of a lot of jerky like somebody must have just gone to town
41:25
like you guys have probably seen the box yeah previous episode
41:29
it's not small it's pretty huge
41:32
yeah like there is some of it that's empty but most of it had quite a bit
41:36
yeah there were like there was a easily one or two months worth of just
41:40
jerky we're gonna we're gonna say this sort of once
41:44
and like it's enough that you couldn't have like accidentally opened up a
41:47
package started eating it because like it's delicious
41:51
and then just like happened to get the whole oh no it's gone and it was spread
41:54
between many packages yeah you're like oh 14 packs of jerky i guess i'll just
41:58
eat this i guess yeah i guess this is totally fine and like some of it was so
42:02
spicy that you couldn't conceivably have eaten it
42:06
in more than in less than like many sittings when you see somebody
42:10
walking by and somebody's like it was you like if you ate it in one
42:15
sitting you wouldn't be sitting oh for a
42:18
while or you'd only be sick you know what i mean you know what i mean no
42:21
sitting we're gonna find it we're gonna track it down okay so in the meantime
42:24
can we ask savage they're sending someone who's supposed to come today they're sending us more it's that good
42:29
i'm sorry okay okay so anyway savage jerky it's made with the best
42:33
ingredients without nitrates or preservatives it's a snack that's full
42:37
of spice and flavor but isn't bad for you they've got 13 different flavors i
42:41
love the maple buffalo bacon uh any any moho flavor is excellent the traditional
42:46
flavor is excellent um the if you're into it
42:50
the carolina reaper and the ghost pepper is like people people who was it was mape
42:56
that was like yeah whatever no jerky well too savage for me yeah and then he
43:01
had like issues the next day yeah yeah of course
43:04
he did they also make barbecue sauce hot sauce and a spice rub but i'm sure he
43:09
tanked it quite well and you can use offer code tanked it
43:13
you mean
43:16
oh i thought that was a fist bump this is so awkward let's do it let's do it let's do it because because you don't
43:21
actually go in the tank
43:28
that's gross use offer code LTT to save 10 on savage
43:32
jerky products oops not that we can eat them and stuff right
43:37
now yeah yeah they're good you'll just have to take our word for it yeah
43:41
they're yummy um so that's pretty sad if you go down
43:45
yeah okay so this was posted by dragoon
43:48
2005 on the forum and you know what this
43:52
doesn't surprise me at all and it wouldn't surprise me
43:56
if um this is true of other motherboard
43:59
makers as well but uh asrock has said in the statement
44:03
that it's aware of the current hold on am i muted here oh oh oh it is aware of
44:09
the current Intel microcode version that might be detected blah blah security
44:12
vulnerables working closely to fix 100 200 z370 and x299 motherboards it blows
44:19
me away that x99 is not included yeah
44:23
i like that's insane that was a high-end product until june of this year yeah uh
44:29
Gigabyte joined the list last year despite originally saying
44:33
their products weren't vulnerable AMD joined the list releasing patches to
44:37
address both variants of spectre um so here we go variant tube
44:43
requires uh CPU microcode update so basically
44:47
uh ASUS was the first to address the issue MSI also etc so if you are running an
44:53
older CPU you know
44:56
i can see people shouting forced for system obsolescence
45:01
here i can also see the other side where the
45:04
manufacturers are going well hold on a minute this is like four or
45:08
five-year-old product how can we possibly be expected to be continuing to
45:11
provide support for it um you know
45:14
but wow one thing i can say is that whoever's to
45:18
blame it is not the consumer yeah so
45:23
that's a thing and i think that for a
45:28
security vulnerability it is fair to expect to be receiving
45:34
support and it's not getting done
45:37
and there are multiple issues at play here
45:40
one of which is a symptom of the computer industry's
45:44
overall inability
45:48
to responsibly manage itself
45:51
because i can tell you guys right now with the margins that they have
45:56
many of these companies simply could not afford
46:01
to roll out all of these updates
46:04
they actually wouldn't have the engineering bandwidth for it they
46:09
actually couldn't do it but
46:12
this this sort of points us to an overall larger systemic problem and that
46:17
is that the computer industry and consumers are partly to blame for this
46:20
as well has been on a race towards zero
46:24
i don't think so you don't think consumers just ultimately turning away
46:28
from the higher quality product refusing to spend more for it and just buying
46:32
whatever's cheapest you don't think that contributes i don't think that's happening that much
46:36
well remember this is this is an ongoing problem we're going back 20 years now
46:39
like we're going back to when computers were treated like you bought a high-end
46:43
computer once in a while you bought a quality one versus being treated like
46:47
commodities yeah but i think consumers are going to
46:51
do that in any market that you're in that's how markets work
46:55
if it's good enough they'll buy the one that's cheap enough to fit their field
46:58
and when you're looking at like gaming consumerism you're looking at like okay
47:02
i want to play these games i need this level of thing and then you'll buy the cheapest thing that can hit that level
47:07
that's okay let me throw a counter argument at
47:10
you because it's not like there weren't
47:13
opportunities in the past for people to learn from a
47:18
mistake like buying a motherboard from a
47:22
cheaper vendor having it be trash
47:25
and having their customer support i mean people complain about the customer
47:29
support of computer hardware manufacturers
47:32
incessantly but then they turn around and they still buy this
47:37
stuff like there's an excellent thread over on hardware canucks about canadian
47:42
warranty service horror stories
47:46
and these resources are out there but the
47:49
consumers continue to support vendors that when you go when you break it down
47:54
aren't charging enough in order to fully staff their support
47:58
departments to provide adequate services i guess you probably know more because
48:02
of the sales numbers of being a pm because from my perspective looking at
48:06
posts on like our forum and my own purchasing habits and the purchasing habits of my friends we buy cheaply
48:12
but usually within known constructs like i've dealt with
48:16
customer service from a few companies and i will often buy from those
48:20
companies or not based on how the customer service wins so in the broader
48:24
scheme of things it is amazing how much of a difference
48:28
people will it's amazing how many more people will
48:32
buy something when it is four dollars cheaper but i i feel like that's got to
48:36
be a thing across all markets and the the reaction about tools
48:42
tools is a great example of people buying what they believe is
48:46
quality because they think it's going to last it is hard to break into the market as a
48:51
cheap at the same time you expect to be able to buy a tool and keep it
48:55
potentially for the rest of your life compared to a computer where you're going to keep it for three years exactly
48:59
so customer expectations have shaped how
49:03
much they expect to spend on these things which has shaped how much people
49:07
can make when they sell them like it's look i'm not to be clear i'm okay i
49:11
should maybe blame is the wrong word yeah i don't think
49:15
a difficult thing to do because consumers are going to act like consumers act and they'll always act the
49:19
same way blame is the wrong word here but i would say that consumers and
49:25
manufacturers have contributed to what is an overall systemic problem
49:28
contributed sure yeah because we could sit around and like we've got people
49:32
saying you know they should recall all of these they should do this they should
49:36
do that good that's stupid like it's just a stupid thing to say because it
49:40
just doesn't work that way and everyone just lose their computers like this
49:44
it's like if it's like if we released um you know everything would just shut down
49:48
like you can't yeah like the whole internet would just shut
49:52
down like we don't actually want a world where MSI Gigabyte ASUS and asrock just
49:57
don't exist we don't want that we have to find we
50:01
have to find a compromise here and it seems like they think the
50:05
compromise is 100 series and up and
50:09
as a as a okay here as a as a customer
50:13
who's rolling x99 systems in our
50:16
production machines i can tell you that
50:20
i bought into that and we didn't pay for all the hardware as you guys know we did
50:23
a video about it but we do have money invested into them
50:28
so as someone who invested money into running these machines in a production
50:32
environment seven months ago or eight months ago or
50:36
whatever it was i am super not impressed that i'm not
50:39
getting supported here so i don't know where the right compromise
50:43
is but i'm not happy about where we are now
50:47
and i guess i don't really have much more to
50:50
say than that yeah i
50:53
i think i think i guess the takeaway from this is pay attention to how
50:57
different companies react to this yeah there that's that's a great takeaway so
51:03
guys uh here i mean we can link you to uh
51:06
we can link you to the article where this is being tracked actually you know
51:09
it'll be on the forum later we'll have it in the when topics uh we'll have it
51:12
in the way i'm talking lan topics forum and
51:17
check it out so find whoever supported this best
51:22
write it down put it on a post-it note stick it to
51:26
your wall google docs next time you buy a motherboard buy from them yeah and
51:30
let's see if we can start to reverse the tide because ultimately that's what it's
51:34
going to take unless the consumer habits change and these companies feel like
51:39
they're going to get a return on the investment that they're putting into support they're not going to do it
51:43
because that's how business works you invest where you're going to get a
51:46
return so brand loyalty i think is is generally
51:50
kind of not a good idea but
51:54
i don't see this as a brand loyalty move because you're making a logical decision
51:58
based on how a company acts and like if something like this was to happen again
52:03
you're making a decision that is based on how that company would react to that
52:06
situation so it is actually inputting value into the product so you can look
52:10
at the overall value proposition and go look this has more value to me i'm going
52:16
to purchase it not i'm brand loyal to this company i'm going to purchase it
52:19
i've made purchasing decisions based on companies
52:23
one of them that i've told stories of on the WAN Show before is evga
52:29
because of how well they treated me in the past when i was not a creator right
52:33
this is when i was absolutely on my own it's a long story so i'm not going to go
52:37
over it but they were awesome and i don't buy everything from avga
52:41
like clearly you can see my builds yeah done them here
52:45
but in situations where i'm like oh look one of my options is this and it's
52:49
pretty darn close to another one i have often gone with them but i don't buy
52:53
their stuff exclusively at all because i'm going for what i think is the best
52:57
value at that individual point in time do you want to totally change gears this
53:01
was posted by sc2 mitch on the forum original article is from cbc
53:05
a canadian has been charged
53:08
with spamming twitch
53:12
what brendan lucas part of the can spam thing
53:16
is subject to a court order preventing him from spamming
53:20
which i know right
53:24
so the 20 year old has been uh charged
53:28
with mischief in relation to computer data by the
53:32
supreme court of british columbia local guy uh for allegedly sending a hundred and
53:36
fifty thousand offensive messages through twitch's chat systems too nice
53:41
uh the messages hit more than a thousand different channels and included racist
53:45
anti-semitic sexist and homophobic slurs thanks for representing canada he could
53:49
face up to 10 years in prison as well as
53:53
a civil order barring him from using creating or selling certain types of
53:56
software including any robot bot crawler spider blacklisting software or other
54:01
software that could be used to target the streaming platform
54:05
he allegedly used a service called chat surge whose stated purpose is to flood
54:10
destroy or simply demolish any twitch tv chat room the bots were posting an
54:15
average of 34 spam messages per minute while on some channels the rate was 600
54:19
messages a minute employees at twitch dedicated more than
54:23
300 hours to tracing the attacks after receiving over 375 individual user
54:29
reports regarding spam messages containing racism homophobia sexual
54:32
harassment false implications of viewbotting and soliciting child sex
54:35
exploitation material wow
54:39
so this all allegedly happened between february and may of 2017
54:44
and uh he was charged on december 1st of 2017. wow
54:51
interesting this prompted the company to file a
54:54
civil lawsuit on march 31 2017 against
54:58
shaw communications paypal holdings cloudflare who is privacy corp and who
55:04
is guard inc
55:07
dang and apple was charged on december 1st of 2017. what
55:12
i guess they're just shooting at everybody speaking of apple um
55:16
we i was actually kind of thinking maybe i would do a video updating people have
55:21
been asking where the heck is our imac pro coverage oh yeah do you know about
55:25
this have you heard about this no oh so we we accidentally broke it
55:31
which happens from time to time yeah no i haven't apple is outright refusing to
55:36
repair it even at our cost
55:40
what so right now because it's so new
55:44
uh replacement parts are not easy to get and apple is just refusing to repair it
55:50
so the store contacted apple hq and they were just like no don't don't do it
55:55
why yeah that's a wonderful question isn't it so um i was thinking maybe we'd
55:59
do a video about that at some point wow
56:03
senator rosman that's an interesting that's an
56:06
interesting idea well no i mean okay the issue is not that we can't repair it
56:10
it's not not rocket science it's got a blown power supply and a broken display
56:13
we just need a new power supply and a new display whatever the issue is that
56:17
apple has a brand new product that for whatever reason not they aren't
56:21
equipped to they're not saying hey give us a couple weeks i don't know if he's interested or not but i really feel like
56:25
tying rossman into this they're saying hey we are not going to do it go take it
56:30
to an apple certified repair shop somewhere else
56:35
wow yeah like what's the point of an apple store
56:38
yeah speaking of you know supporting customers and all that we're not asking
56:42
them to do it for free they even quoted us they told us how much it was going to
56:46
cost we agreed to it they held it for a few days and then we're just like what
56:50
we are not going to repair it what yeah no i know no no no this is like
56:56
pretty frustrating what how can couldn't
57:01
i'm sure there's something in the contract but if they take money for something no they didn't
57:05
take it yet they just quoted it but they took it physically right they took your
57:09
product yeah they took the product you should be able to like charge them a
57:12
rental fee or some bullcrap you wouldn't be able to do that if that were the case
57:16
and every repair shop anywhere that doesn't end up being able to fix something would be
57:20
would be open to that kind of but that's that's that's a decision that's not an
57:23
inability no that's not a like we tried they could just say oh you must have
57:27
misunderstood us we can't fix it in which case that's a pretty funny video
57:30
either way yeah apple cannot fix the imac pro
57:35
woo good so good luck if it breaks but rosman probably can't yeah he probably
57:39
can um okay last last topic today this
57:42
is cool uh this is off windowscentral.com
57:45
microsoft is building a truly modern version of Windows 10 for pc's codename
57:50
polaris they're planning to strip out
57:53
legacy components in favor of a more modern os with better battery life
57:59
like what i don't know
58:02
what a wonderful question
58:06
apparently better performance it'll feature seashell microsoft's upcoming
58:09
universal shell that's shared across devices instead of the legacy microsoft
58:12
shell um it will also ditch win32 components
58:16
and apps like notepad or paint in favor of a uwp first experience just like
58:21
Windows 10 mobile oh wow what
58:24
it's working on an updated file explorer built on uwp
58:30
why do they do stuff that like just
58:34
it's obvious that people will hate
58:37
okay have you noticed how hard it is to get into your network settings now yes
58:40
ever since the fall creator is actually a nightmare it's ridiculous like here
58:45
and it auto changes settings back you change something and they'll just set it
58:49
back that drives me absolutely bonkers like you get stuck here now and like i
58:54
can never remember is it is it property no no it's not
58:58
properties is it uh takes forever to load
59:03
not hardware properties is it you know the status it's not dense
59:08
enough there's all this white space you have to scroll for no appearance oh wait
59:11
hold on is it network and sharing center i think what you're looking for is oh
59:15
hold on no no i think you can get to it here there we go finally finally another
59:21
click finally there you go and get this
59:25
if you want to connect or disconnect a vpn oh my god it takes you to the stupid
59:30
thing it doesn't just connect or disconnect are you are you kidding me
59:34
at least to their credit you can connect and disconnect the vpn by clicking here
59:38
now but there was an intermediary there was an intermediary yeah where you
59:41
couldn't do this still and you just had to come in here and do this and every
59:44
time i loaded this straight to here it wouldn't work until i clicked on another
59:48
tab and then clicked back like it is it's shocking no no that goes here now
59:52
the one that you pointed at goes here what that's the problem yeah this goes
59:56
here i thought that's as of the last couple of updates
60:00
what really yeah yes no i was just using that as my shortcut
60:06
no you can still right click i think and
60:11
open network and no that's still that's this again that's this now too so
60:15
there's no straight right this is never what i want no i can't think of any
60:20
reason i would want to look at this page where's the like how it handles with
60:23
home and oh hold on hold on oh oh this is just bad ui design
60:27
this is clickable yeah i didn't even realize this was
60:30
clickable i thought this was just crap yeah so you can click here and you can
60:34
get to the adapter settings okay yeah they don't look like buttons
60:38
yeah until you hover over them i
60:41
viciously hate Windows 10. and it sucks
60:44
because this really cool microsoft studios game
60:48
is in beta right now called sea of thieves yeah
60:51
um and i want to play it and i tweeted like does anyone have a key and like
60:56
awesome sean from microsoft is like here you go bro um and then i'm like wait i
61:01
can't play it because i'm on Windows 8.1 well you have to use the Windows store
61:05
it's a Windows store game sadly because the Windows store is a terrible
61:08
experience but it looks like a really cool game so i want to play it and i
61:12
don't have any spare ssds so i'm going to install Windows 10
61:16
on a 500 gig momentous xt
61:20
um i think that's what it's called those like those like SSD hard drives that
61:25
really just have a lot of cash ssh yeah i'm gonna install Windows 10 on
61:29
there obs chrome
61:32
and sea of thieves and that's it
61:36
and it'll be a horrible experience because it's gonna be on a hard drive yes yeah so if i ever want to play the
61:41
game it'll be on a hard drive because i just i sat i literally sat there for
61:44
like half an hour basically staring at my computer being like i really want to play sea of thieves but i really
61:49
really don't want to use Windows 10.
61:53
and that's it came to there all right so thank you guys for tuning in to the lan
61:57
show oh right um
62:00
early access on flow play yes huzzah
62:04
oh do you do you want to talk about any of the cool stuff that's going on with full playing can you talk about the cool
62:08
stuff that's going on you're killing me he's supposed to do blog posts
62:12
he there's so much cool stuff happening
62:15
i'm no i'm i'm saying it i'm saying it we processed a credit card transaction
62:21
a lot of them a lot of credit card transactions and they resubbed and they
62:25
worked and they resubmitted yes the subscription the subscription mechanism
62:30
worked that is a huge milestone if you've ever like developed a platform
62:34
you'll know that that's a big deal because you can't even do any of that
62:38
stuff until you've got a lot of the other back-end mechanisms also working
62:42
and it like associates with accounts and it grants you access properly and when
62:46
your sub dies it takes away pro access properly and and uh why aren't we
62:50
talking about this stuff it's cool i wanna slam a whole bunch of these things
62:55
really close to the launch of the platform okay it's like think of it like
62:59
sex
63:06
a penis can only be so wide okay before it just cannot be processed
63:12
anymore okay
63:17
you need to you need to just calm down that like massive you know
63:23
like you know butcher shop meet size direction
63:28
and just kind of bang out
63:32
these these news updates focus on insertion over time over time yes
63:36
okay so back to my screen here
63:42
uh this could be quite possibly the greatest LTT video of all time this is
63:47
sort of so we actually almost lost one of our cameras at ces
63:51
um not going to name any names
63:54
um someone left one of our camera bags just
63:59
at the bell desk basically and i just called luke a giant dick it
64:03
had uh i didn't call him one i said maybe he
64:06
had one it's different
64:10
one's offensive one's probably i don't know maybe also
64:15
it depends how sensitive you are i got hard that's confusing right now i got
64:19
hardcore sjw at the amazon go store
64:22
oh oh yeah anyway um oh yeah i had an
64:25
encounter i had a real live encounter it was great i'm sorry yeah um anyway so
64:31
this video was almost lost because it was on an sd card that was sitting in
64:35
that camera and it is perhaps the greatest you watched it LTT video of all
64:39
time uh i have watched bits of it i haven't watched the whole thing
64:43
uh hold on a bit but we're going to watch a little
64:46
bit of it now hold on i'm going to throw up so cool this is like the coolest product
64:51
of all time and this is possibly the greatest LTT video of all time so that's
64:54
not a digital screen no no no those are physical objects yep
64:59
and this is this this match this match is epic this match is epic
65:04
i'm not going to spoil who wins but it's an epic match me versus luke mano amano
65:08
who's close real world pong yeah real
65:12
world pong just like seemingly every competition we do like scrapyard the
65:16
amazon go store video is up so i went down to buy myself some always
65:20
nice um heck yeah got in trouble for that
65:25
that's what you got in trouble yeah interesting hey not from amazon that was
65:30
my sjw encounter okay the diy micro SSD
65:34
micro sd SSD this was an adventure
65:38
that was good um that was fun that was really fun
65:41
uh mining adventure part three is up
65:44
asic miners are they worth it
65:49
that answer changes from day to day hey guys
65:52
the imac pro review from a pc guy's perspective that's up
65:57
just the review the rest of the content has to wait until uh we can put it back
66:01
together scammed on ebay testing the 56 core
66:05
system it's 19 minutes long that's a really good video the whole thing is
66:09
really good 19 minutes long my friends editing on it's good the hosting is good
66:13
good job it was a good video yep great work a
66:17
prime um yeah so we've also got a couple tech quickies how does bitcoin work
66:21
um we've got a lot of really good feedback on this video people are saying this is one of the better summaries out
66:26
there okay also what are pentium gold and silver
66:29
because who the crap knows yeah what what Intel's talking about these days
66:34
and if you are subscribed to bit wit
66:37
then you can also get early access to okay kyle's stuff where is it the
66:41
happiest place on earth breaks down is a
66:44
really wholesome actually fun to watch
66:48
video kyle's has fantastic humor wifey
66:51
sauce is hilarious they go to disneyland it has almost nothing to do with tech
66:56
and it is great i don't know
66:59
i like i i clicked on it to be like oh the upload worked and blah blah i want
67:03
to see how the service is going because some people whatever and then i ended up just sitting there and watched the whole
67:07
thing and was like i feel good about stuff now this is going to be a good day
67:12
speaking of the upload working you guys have retooled a lot of the back end is the performance on the player still good
67:16
oh it should be missed my click wow yeah it should be good wow did you
67:21
guys see that instant playback
67:24
let's see what happens when you switch to 1080. i think you might have to
67:27
um click play again oh really oh no no there we go okay uh so his
67:33
video quality and this is actually not that great so don't judge our 1080p
67:37
based on this and it's going through twitch uh not fair um but anyway that's
67:41
a cool poster thingy the the the pacing and the editing in the beginning before
67:45
they go to disneyland is really good and then it's hilarious once they're
67:50
there i don't know they just it's good very good video all right so there you
67:54
go there's the update on Floatplane sort of
67:57
a lot of great content over there though so go sign up if you haven't already and
68:02
hopefully very soon we will have annual subscriptions
68:06
working again that'll be one used so the reason why it launches very
68:11
soon the reason why annual subscriptions got
68:15
cut wasn't because i don't want to give people a discount for subscribing
68:18
annually i absolutely want to do that because then that encourages people to
68:21
subscribe annually obviously that's why everyone does that um but i didn't want
68:26
to lock people onto the current payments platform because it's garbage so i'm
68:30
hoping that we can launch the new site get you on the new payments platform
68:34
then there will be the discounts for yearly and if you were subscribed yearly
68:37
and then now you're subscribed it monthly don't worry you'll still be grandfathered into the nice pricing are
68:42
we going to find a way to work that how are we going to do that okay we'll
68:45
figure that out still some things won't actually be that hard okay okay cool
68:49
yeah all right cool um people want the sjw
68:52
story uh is it a good idea i don't know
68:57
after party i don't know no i gotta go um
69:01
all right i'll do it really quick okay i'll do it really quick so basically
69:07
you're playing with fire here i know i know okay i know
69:11
one thing to consider oh no i don't we are not a federal institution okay
69:15
that's fine there is laws against certain things in canada now anyways
69:18
okay okay so anyway
69:21
i'm kind of done shooting the piece and i'm
69:25
i'm waiting to get my receipt on my phone and so dennis like i'm holding the
69:30
stuff i bought and it's like kind of awkward because
69:33
dennis has to keep his camera pointed at it because we want to see the push
69:37
notification okay so we like we can't really move so i've got like i've got
69:41
these like pads and uh we put the food in the bag so i
69:45
just have these pads and i have my phone and like my mic battery's dying so we
69:48
need to like swap the batteries and we're trying to hold everything we're trying to like
69:52
anyway um so this person
69:57
um comes up to me and goes are you guys like vloggers and
70:02
i'm like oh yeah and she's like
70:06
did i say she the person
70:10
cause i'm not gonna assume oh the person the person kind of makes a
70:14
face and goes and it's part of your bit that
70:18
you're here buying pads and that that's embarrassing
70:23
and i'm like and then i don't actually get a chance
70:27
to say anything because that's perpetuating
70:31
something something i kind of was tuned out by that point and
70:35
um and it's totally natural and it's fine and i'm like yeah it is and that's fine
70:40
and that's good and then he has a wife who he's probably buying them for yeah
70:44
um and you know it's one of those it's one of those conversations where it's
70:47
like look honestly
70:50
i am not personally shy and i don't feel awkward about
70:54
natural bodily functions no because who
70:58
gives a [ __ ] get it
71:05
but i'm also not going to pretend
71:08
that people don't feel a little awkward when they have to go to a drugstore and
71:13
buy condoms or tampons or suppositories
71:16
anything that goes on your genitals up your genitals
71:20
or you know up your butt is just you know what
71:25
people feel a little awkward about that evolutionary reasons why you feel
71:28
awkward about those things and that's fine too
71:31
basically the premise of the video is
71:34
you know i need to buy something the original plan was condoms actually the
71:39
original plan was was extra small condoms
71:42
and i was good it was going to be a joke at my own expense because i was going to
71:46
want to buy some condoms they needed to be obviously i don't need those because
71:51
yeah but but the joke was going to be i need to buy some condoms
71:54
and i hate i hate telling people my size
71:57
you know and so yeah i need i need a store that
72:01
doesn't have cashiers so i'm going to drive all the way to seattle
72:06
so i don't have to show the extra small condoms to the cashier okay
72:10
and we call the head and they don't carry condoms so we were like okay
72:15
what's the only like personal care or personal hygiene product that
72:19
you carry and it turned out it was tampons and pads um so we had to adapt it and
72:26
there you go um that was it and the funny thing is i
72:30
was sitting eating my lunch on a bench in the building next to it and an amazon
72:35
staffer who happened to be female comes by and she's like oh is your bit that
72:40
you don't have to talk to the cashier about the pads that's hilarious that's
72:44
something i didn't even think of as a benefit for this store because now when
72:48
when husbands and boyfriends have to come in and buy pads and tampons they
72:51
can do it discreetly brilliant and and she goes on on her way
72:57
which is like yeah people are allowed to feel awkward and we were even we were
73:01
talking we were talking for a little bit more actually and i go yeah you know i
73:04
actually took flack over this over this angle for the video and she goes
73:09
oh you know that's uh well you know i'm from the
73:12
east coast and
73:17
and i was like well you know i'm west coast and i got nothing to say
73:21
about about that but you know east coast sounds great oh man you know the
73:27
it's just it's one of those things where people are gonna be offended or not
73:32
offended my personal my personal philosophy on the whole thing i don't
73:36
get real personal on the wand show very often but my personal philosophy is you
73:40
know what it is very easy to get offended in life you can get offended by
73:46
almost anything it is really hard to get along
73:50
and so what we all need to work at
73:53
is getting along and if everybody focuses on that and if we focus on
73:59
people's intent rather than on exactly the words they
74:03
used or the way that they used them it would be a better world yeah
74:08
that's all i have to say don't assume people are trying to be jerks thank you
74:12
for watching the lan show we will see you again next week same bat time same
74:16
bat channel assuming we haven't been you know assuming we can get past the
74:20
picket line of people who are upset in front of our office yep
74:27
bill c-16 yeah bill c-16 is crazy
74:31
what's bill c-68 uh federal institutions you are legally
74:36
obligated essentially it's a bill against certain
74:41
parts of the free speech but then canada doesn't have the same
74:44
thing it's really complicated and there's other bills that affect it so
74:49
it's a really difficult thing to understand and just saying it during the outro is not going to make enough sense
74:54
i would recommend doing research on it don't just read the bill because there
74:57
are other bills that affect it so it's more complicated than that
75:00
anyways
