0:03 all right ladies and gentlemen welcome to the WAN Show the show on the internet

0:09 that's why we called it WAN Show I started trying to come up with a a

0:13 different name for it I was like the offline show then I was like nope nope

0:17 technically it's online it's online it says it's my line is on your line is on

0:22 slow wi you could touch our lines together if you want we could well well

0:27 the okay I've heard I've heard a conspiracy theory from the same guy who

0:30 did the Jar Jar Binks is a Sith Master conspiracy theory that actually we

0:36 called it w show because we chickened out on calling it The Weekly analysis

0:39 news and gaming show the same guy no I

0:42 made that up en I was really excited because that guy's like famous in my

0:45 yeah no he's he's about as Internet famous as like anyone who works here I

0:50 think yeah like I don't know anyone who hasn't

0:53 read that redit I thought that would have been super cool I thought you talked to him I was like whoa that's

0:57 that's pretty cool no I'm not that cool unfortunately

1:01 sorry illusion shattered oh I'm not wearing my

1:06 Christmas W sweater oh no oh no maybe I'll change

1:10 during the intro but we got a lot of great oh excellent excellent when are

1:15 you seeing it uh 28th oh get wrecked

1:19 yeah I know it sucks get wrecked I know I'm going with Brandon though this is

1:22 what my dancing boobies look like because I'm going to see it on the 19th

1:25 calm your tits okay calm whoa

1:30 uh so we got a great show for you guys today Apple released the iPhone battery

1:36 case I'm not sure if they were thinking battery like thing that holds a charge

1:40 or battery like an assault on your senses um Trump wants to close up that

1:45 their internet to fight terrorism uh wow I went to go talk to

1:50 Twitch chat really quick without realizing that it was my turn Indiegogo

1:53 there's a campaign on Indiegogo right now for a computer that fits in your

1:57 pocket because like that would be pretty ground ground breaking actually I almost

2:01 exclusively wear lonus Tech tips shirts now I don't have I'm getting more though

2:05 I'm getting like four more or something yeah it's like it's gotten to the point

2:10 where it's kind of ridiculous I'm either wearing like my name on my chest or like

2:15 something that I did or like or your

2:18 name on your back or like something that like Ed or like burkel designed with my

2:22 name on my back also troll Insurance

2:26 troll insurance I don't even I'm not even going to say anything else there's

2:29 other information that we said in the pre-show thing I'm not even going to bother but we're get we're going to get

2:34 to that later on in the show for now we're going to roll that intro I hope

2:38 this works oh crap oh wrecked oh I have

2:41 all the wrong oh I have all the wrong sponsors no maybe I can do this go fast

2:46 no I'll pull this off hold go fast like dbes like

2:50 dbes hold on you can shoot something while it's walking relatively not that

2:54 fast okay just calm down but what about tribes where it's like going really fast

2:59 hold on I'm working I'm working on this okay

3:02 Linda uh The Edge I I got to find the

3:06 edge I got to find yes yeah Linda ah

3:09 fresh books Boop yeah baby and I fix it

3:15 Boop yeah Round of Applause for lonus and his

3:21 team especially lonus who was the one responsible for pulling that out of the

3:25 fire and also it was his fault that it was broken in the first place you put it

3:29 in fire then you took it back out that's right play like Hokey pokei but with

3:32 literally a fire does that count you put your right hand in you take your right

3:37 hand out you scream oh my God my

3:41 hand and then you start up a twitch thing and you're not signed in or hey

3:46 there's a there's a riot game stream going on that means my stream's going to

3:49 get no viewers sick I think our stream's

3:52 still doing wow we have only 2600 viewers oh you know what that thing's

3:56 always delayed the YouTube thing didn't go up oh dude that's interesting so this

4:01 is all the hardcores only this is like hardcores only time or just whoever

4:06 twitch decided to send an email too yeah

4:09 that too that's a whole other issue that's that's uh there's nothing I can

4:14 really do about that what is this thing doing why why are you broken YouTube 44%

4:20 processed on like a one minute video like are you for oh oh oh there 46%

4:27 46% uh someone must have thrown a USB drive at the server dude they're using

4:31 the quantum computer the quantum computer no we'll talk about that later

4:34 though the quantum computer is uh is is

4:37 definitely Quantum there's like or no right they were using the quantum

4:41 computer now they're comparing it to that single core something yeah well

4:45 that that well we'll talk about that okay so actually well no let's talk

4:48 let's talk about things let's get into our first topic of the day today should we just start with the quantum computer

4:53 no let's do Donald Trump wanting to close up the internet closing up the

4:56 internet cuz like you can just close CL

4:59 the doors you can call up Bill Gates yeah and Bill Gates can just build a

5:03 digital wall yeah so the original article here is from RS Technica and to

5:10 be clear if you actually watch and like put

5:16 some context around this if you actually watch some of the

5:20 speech he's obviously doesn't have a

5:23 clear enough understanding of how the internet works to have spoken correctly

5:29 but some of his sentiments were not

5:33 entirely ridiculous either not everything he said was completely stupid

5:39 but you're talking to internet people about internet terminology yes some of

5:42 it was really stupid um I'm just going to try and I'm going to go back to my uh

5:46 to my show notes for a second here because I think I put down something that uh uh blah blah blah I

5:52 mean acknowledging that people are

5:55 people are vulnerable to being recruited whether it's for Isis or or whether it's

6:00 um I speak from some personal experience without giving too much detail here not

6:04 not myself but someone that was very close to me um you know whether it's

6:08 something like a a proen a suicide Society or something like that people

6:12 can be very Su susceptible to being

6:15 drawn into someone who will make them feel like they fit in um and I feel like

6:21 the internet has made some of these very very extreme sex a little bit more

6:26 accessible sects not sex

6:29 it's made that more accessible too that's true but I'm not complaining

6:33 about that Craigslist so so some of what

6:36 he's saying is is it comes from a good place I think but obviously calling at

6:43 Bill Gates or doesn't get how it works other internet leaders to close up the

6:47 internet in some way and then he goes on to say you know Free Speech what about

6:52 Free Speech we got to you deal with this terrorist threat that's not necessarily

6:55 the right approach either but I think the bottom line is this I hope in my

7:01 deepest heart of hearts that Donald Trump wins the presidency because there

7:05 will never be a slow news wake news wake news week for the entire four years that

7:10 he's in so you would you just want it because it would be hilarious yes not

7:15 enough to vote for him and to anyone who's considering voting for Trump just

7:19 because you think it's hilarious and you just want to troll the entirety of your

7:24 country I would urge you to please reconsider

7:28 because there's there's so many trolls out there that he might actually win I

7:34 don't think we usually like give political voting opinions we don't but

7:38 don't vote for someone to troll I think is pretty safe political advice if you

7:44 genuinely believe in Donald Trump and his principles I'm not going to tell you not to vote for him that is your

7:48 prerogative that would be undemocratic but if you are voting for Donald Trump

7:53 because you're like don't do that because you just want

7:58 no slow news we news week news week no

8:02 slow news weeks for four years it would be kind of like a news week you just

8:07 like it's just the wake of Donald Trump as he just crashes through everything

8:12 and the the the entire the entire like internet internet like news reporters

8:18 just like crawl into the office oh my God he did more things they would they

8:21 would die of like laughter like their

8:25 abdominal muscles would actually implode upon themselves from yeah

8:30 so my my little joke that I wanted to throw in here is that people should just

8:35 start feeding him more just like not true stuff like start telling about the

8:39 series of tubes thing and then just be like you know if you just make the tubes

8:44 a little bit smaller then the bad messages will be delayed too much

8:48 because they're coming from too far away and they won't make it in did you see

8:52 the thing he posted about how it was like mostly blacks killing whites or

8:56 something like that like some some completely false like no one can figure

9:00 out where it came from infographic that was like supposedly

9:04 attributed to like the Seattle Police Department or something like that but

9:08 did not they're like uh no that didn't

9:12 come from here that's brutal yeah he he's he like retweet are you sure it was

9:16 it was a retweet yeah cuz like there's been a lot of stuff where he didn't

9:20 actually say it yes and he didn't say it but like you also have to be responsible

9:24 you can't be retweeting that stuff no I don't mean that the retweeter has value

9:28 I mean like there's there's I've seen a lot of jokes online where people will

9:32 share things from like satire websites and be like oh my God I can't believe he

9:35 said this and it's like that's cuz he didn't although to be fair it wouldn't

9:39 be that surprising at this point

9:42 yeah so um oh apparently they did figure

9:46 out where it came from all right well thank you for that either way it didn't

9:49 come from the Seattle Poli again we're not yeah political whatever yep speaking

9:54 of not being political whatever European commission officially presents plan to

9:58 address net like Geo blocking this I'm really excited about so the original

10:02 article here is from torrent freak oh I'm sorry Brandon I did not move that

10:05 computer okay sorry I was busy fixing

10:08 this computer actually okay before we get into the eu's proposal which is we

10:12 just turn the webcam thing on that we used to have and just show Brandon

10:15 trying to figure out how to walk with this thing I know right without destroying everything oh it's going to

10:19 be great good job Brandon he has I was telling him this the to the team Brandon

10:24 never trips anymore remember the way remember he used to trip who I almost

10:28 just said know and then I was like wait that changed at some point he doesn't

10:33 though I know he's like he's got cat-like agility now we put too many

10:37 wires down we were going to his nickname learned the foot flick his nickname was

10:41 going to be cables he just did the foot flick on that thing right there I know I

10:44 know he's like he's like a navigation master and this place is easier than the

10:48 old place so he's like he's he's he's like effortlessly moving around here

10:52 other than that he has to carry heavy things and now heavy things with like

10:56 stuff coming out of them okay so the story I was going to tell

10:59 is that I actually spent okay the show was still late I know but I actually

11:05 spent the hour and a half so since 3:00 today okay the show starts at 4:30 I was

11:11 like okay I am getting this computer

11:14 working once and for all it is happening

11:17 so I was like doing something with capture cards and we've known for some

11:22 time like ever since I built the first capture PC I ever built which was a

11:26 shuttle with a couple intensity Pros in it

11:29 we realized that mainstream platforms

11:33 your your uh your Z87 z97 whatever with

11:37 all their PCI Express Lane slit splitting and switching and and whatnot

11:42 are just don't cooperate well with professional grade Hardware sometimes

11:47 yeah where it's just it's low volume hardware and not always designed to work

11:52 properly in consumer devices and so I've always had trouble and even sometimes

11:56 it's as simple as okay maybe I'll try the four PCI E Lanes that are coming off

11:59 of the DMI interface versus the split ones that are coming off the CPU or

12:03 whatever the case may be um so today I

12:08 was like I ran into some weird issue and it was a minor issue but I was just like

12:11 no no that's enough so I went and got an x79 motherboard so we are you running a

12:15 3960x six Core Extreme Edition we are running an x79 workstation board like P9

12:21 x79 WS whatever from ASUS 32 gigs of the

12:25 most stable RAM that we've had like on all of our Benchmark systems that 1866

12:30 uh rip Jaws skill stuff like we've never

12:34 had any issues with and then I put in

12:38 four capture devices great a decklink 4K extreme a an

12:45 Elgato uh Pro 60 hd60 uh a black magic intensity Pro and

12:51 an a media live gamer portable attached via USB I was like

12:55 okay we're going to get this stable there's got to be some combination of

12:58 two yes just got to figure out so

13:01 they're all in there and I finally got it I'm pretty sure it's working I got

13:05 the audio synced needed only a slight delay so I'm pretty sure that we're in

13:09 pretty good shape so now that I've said that I'm sure that I've jinxed it

13:13 forever now but it can't be any worse

13:16 than it was before Oh no now I'm going to make it worse than okay there's no

13:20 wood around here this isn't really wood yeah this isn't wood this is like the

13:24 closest thing to Wood that's in my lap is in my lap where are you going thank

13:29 you thank you for that Luke did it for

13:32 you so the EU has issued a proposal that

13:35 would ban Netflix style geol blocking and restrictions which sounds like

13:42 fantastic news on first glance do you want to run through what this is exactly

13:46 basically you know how the EU is a lot uh people might take offense to this I

13:51 don't know it's a grouping of a bunch of smaller countries yeah I come from

13:55 Canada we're really big every country is a small country to Canada yeah I'm not

13:59 trying to say anything not in terms of population they have more people than us

14:03 oh yeah we don't have that we just I mean like land mass there's a great song

14:07 by The Arrogant Worms we've got rocks and trees and trees and rocks and rocks

14:12 and trees and trees and rocks and rocks and trees and trees and rocks and rocks

14:17 and trees and trees and rocks and

14:20 water come on

14:23 everybody it's a Canadian song anyways basically it's enabling you if if you

14:28 have a Netflix subscription to be able to watch it anywhere within the EU which

14:31 is pretty sweet yes but there are some

14:35 caveats which I don't understand actually but okay I can explain this so

14:40 basically the way that they want it to work is they want it to be illegal if

14:44 I'm a British citizen for example and I subscribe to British Netflix they want

14:49 it to be illegal for when I travel to France for my subscription to stop

14:52 working yeah awesome love it the problem

14:59 is that with these new regulations it would actually become more difficult for

15:05 people who use a VPN to access a broader

15:08 library of films and videos from another EU country that would no longer be

15:12 possible under the new rules how I don't

15:15 know that's what I don't I don't know so that I don't know but the new rules

15:19 would make it so that accessing the

15:23 library that should be available in your home country is fine but accessing other

15:27 libraries would not be fine the thing that worries me about this is are you

15:30 now going to have to sign up with like citizen IDs or something I don't know

15:34 see that's that's I'm not sure how they're going to handle it that's weird

15:37 I'm not sure how they're going to manage it like I know that over the years it's become more difficult for example to use

15:41 a credit card that isn't issued by a bank in the country that but that's

15:45 still not that hard they're saying impossible you could still find a way it

15:49 would still be what I'm hoping for is that under the new rules not not

15:55 possible like not allowed but I'm hoping that it would still be uh it would still

15:59 be still be somewhat F not possible like not allowed is fine because I'm pretty

16:02 sure that's already a thing so whatever go ahead people are going to do it

16:05 anyways good job I don't care there you

16:09 go um and then the other one I just got a hilarious private message from uh John

16:14 for Lakers John ringer TechnoBuffalo uh there was a particular partner that we

16:19 worked with once that I kind of off the record I was like dude don't work with

16:23 them uh I'm not going to indicate

16:26 anything but yes yes okay um so I just got a message from he's like dude I

16:31 should have listened to you have a great w

16:34 show I like our new one we have a replacement one it's good all right um

16:41 so where yeah okay so the last one is people who are in countries uh where

16:44 Netflix and services aren't available still won't have access and like that's

16:48 not so that was already a thing yeah

16:51 it's just a not better thing basically this is like a really small really tiny

16:56 step towards forming the way that geob

17:00 blocking and Regional restrictions are handled and honestly it feels kind of

17:03 like one step forward one step back um

17:07 just because if it does legitimately make these other forms of access more

17:12 difficult then we're not really helping anything um and it forces the content

17:16 owners to go and rewrite a bunch of their licensing deals for what is in my

17:20 mind not really that helpful I'd like to see I'd like to see that stuff Rewritten

17:25 more Brad it it it at least acknowledges that there's a problem yeah that's what

17:30 I'll say yeah we're acknowledging a problem which is better than

17:34 nothing so oh I've got people suggesting

17:37 that it's Hotspot Shield no it's not Hotspot Shield um oh good I was just

17:44 there's okay so this is funny there was a w show at one point where we

17:47 accidentally still had like an ancient Hotspot Shield logo baked into our intro

17:51 and showed it uh but we hadn't been working with Hotspot Shield for over a

17:55 year and it happened that tunnel bear was a brand new

18:00 St and they were just like Yoo what was

18:05 that we're like oh that was like a really old Legacy thing don't worry

18:10 about it there was also the time with Squarespace we gave them a

18:13 freebie oh well yeah Squarespace I it's

18:16 a miracle Squarespace still advertises with us why because we screwed up

18:22 everything with them so many times whatever oh I got people asking

18:27 build it beautiful I got people asking how my lip feels they saw the GoPro

18:31 dodgeball incident it's been a while so people are geniuses everyone has great

18:36 ideas and they love sharing them with us they're like you know you're supposed to

18:40 have the GoPro facing up on those mounts right oh my God we know we are putting

18:47 the GoPros in front of our eyes in the most annoying position possible in the

18:51 most annoying possible way not because we think that that's a stroke of Genius

18:57 and it helps us see better or anything but because it gives a more natural feel

19:02 like point of view perspective on what it is that we're doing we're doing it it

19:07 destroys your depth perception so we tried to put it on the people who were

19:11 showing some amount of accuracy already so that it would like bring them down a

19:15 little bit and make things a little bit more equal like it not was bad and

19:19 deliver better footage this is what we do this is what we do for you okay is

19:25 and yes Dennis still has a job no Dennis has not been deported no that was a joke

19:30 Dennis is a valued member of our team we are not we are not deporting him the

19:34 problem is that POV sucks well if POV sucks then eight inches above POV is

19:40 definitely not better so why is that

19:43 search term used so much I'm going leave you with

19:46 that bro

19:50 so let's go ahead and move into our next topic here this is cool so I mean if it

19:56 wasn't cool we probably wouldn't be talking about it on the ex sometimes we

19:59 talk about stuff that's totally not cool for the sake of talking about stuff

20:03 that's stupid um so Google's d-wave 2x

20:07 quantum computer a 100 times faster than

20:10 regular computer now now okay excuse me

20:14 100 million times faster sorry sorry I misread that which the scale makes the

20:18 point that we're going to make here not really matter but it's still a valid

20:21 point yeah okay so basically this was acquired by Google and NASA in 2013

20:25 they're keeping it in there like like supercomputing lab in Silicon Valley

20:31 somewhere underground something along those lines

20:35 um and basically in a nutshell it was

20:39 able to achieve 10,000 years of

20:43 computing in seconds the thing is

20:46 they're not actually really showing what they're comparing it to and sometimes

20:50 they're like yeah a you know classic computer a classic a classic single core

20:56 computer was what it was compared comped to well in one place they say classic

21:00 computer in another place they say I think like consumer and then somewhere

21:04 else they're finally like single core and I'm like o so it' be really nice to

21:09 know what it's being compared to um but it is a hundred million times faster yes

21:14 so at the same time it's like still very cool yeah um but with

21:20 that said we're still a long ways away from it being useful for any kind of

21:23 practical practical practical matters well okay uh broadly useful and we'll

21:29 we'll explain that a little bit more in a minute so basically for just as a refresher regular Computing uses zeros

21:34 and ones or bits Quantum Computing uses cubits and in the case of the d-wave 2x

21:40 you can have up to, 197 cubits so that's

21:44 that's that many more different states and then it's like Quantum nonsense with

21:49 like it can have this value and this value and all all this kind of very

21:53 complicated stuff that quite frankly I'm not enough of a scientist to

21:59 TR to talk about anything in this realm I try to give like a simplified version

22:02 and then people try to murder me so I'm just not even going to bother so let's

22:05 not bother uh but the point is that what it's really good for what what they what

22:10 they were able to find that the d-wave 2x was able to do really really well was

22:15 solving an optimization problem so an optimization problem could be something

22:19 like let's let's come up with something very very simple so if I want to make

22:24 the best possible oh I don't know super

22:28 can okay so you've got you've got a bunch of different variables you've got

22:32 the height you've got the circumference you've got the uh You've Got The Ridges

22:36 that you can put in the side you've got uh having a a curvature or no curvature

22:41 to the top and the bottom and so you could come up with a value that you want

22:44 like I want the strongest soup can that holds x amount of volume or or whatever

22:48 the case may be so so that would be an optimization problems you could have a

22:52 lot of different variables that the computer has to solve for many different

22:57 scenarios of all of them to get the best possible result that would be an

23:01 optimization problem in this case the problem that the d-wave 2x solved had

23:06 about a thousand variables and then each

23:09 one of those like I'm sure a lot of people in the audience know what a

23:13 variable is but each one of those will have crazy amounts of values so that's

23:17 an entry for a value or any value yeah like like it could be a variable is just

23:21 is is as a placeholder it's what x or y or whatever else so so you had a

23:25 thousand X's y Z's you're going run out letters of the alphabet don't worry too

23:29 much about that part though and it found the optimal answer for all of those

23:35 variables um the problem right now is

23:38 that there's only a handful of people in the world who are qualified to actually

23:43 input information input information into the hard to tell it to do things which

23:48 makes sense if you know things about computers that's kind of yeah yeah so

23:51 they're good they're going to have to work on making it a little bit easier to use

23:56 okay and then yeah and then and then

24:00 then it'll be more useful but Quantum Computing is still

24:03 very like look at who has it it's a it's

24:07 a long way away from you playing you know halflife three on one although

24:12 probably less far away than halflife 3

24:15 oh rip okay sorry sorry everyone sorry

24:20 to those who are still holding out hope rough speaking of that troll that you

24:24 just did oh my goodness so this

24:29 what I'll say in advance of this topic

24:32 is that I don't think there's a way for

24:36 us to cover this that won't upset the

24:40 particularly sensitive of our social

24:43 justice Warrior viewers so someone's going to be upset

24:48 by the end of this and that's a shame

24:51 and if the social justice Warriors aren't upset which they probably already are because we said their name I did

24:55 call them that then if they're not upset

24:59 then the people who aren't in that category will probably be upset because

25:02 we probably talked about it too lately Yeah so basically let's let's run let's

25:08 run run through what this is let's run through what this is in a nutshell yeah

25:11 we're damned if we do we're damned if we don't so chub which to be clear is not

25:16 the company that makes locks I wonder if they're doing this because someone

25:20 called them fat I wow was wondering if we were going to go

25:25 there or not thought about that before show I was like you know we aren't going

25:29 to go there if you troll the company that offers troll Insurance yeah what

25:33 happens I don't know like troll setion or like they have troll Insurance on

25:36 their own like I don't know can you do that I don't think you can do that cuz

25:40 you'd have to have some sounds like all over the place okay anyway so chub the

25:45 insurance company not the company that makes locks and security stuff Y is

25:49 offering this to their clients in the UK starting in 2016 they're defining it as

25:54 three or more acts by the same person or

25:57 group wondering how that's defined to harass threaten or intimidate a customer

26:03 so claims of up to $75,000 can be made for counseling

26:08 relocation due to online abuse or missed work and they offer certain things like

26:14 uh reputation management which can help restore your Public Image or uh hiring

26:19 of a forensic specialist who can try to

26:22 trace the origins of the trolling so the

26:25 policy uh so they they see it as a way

26:28 to help clients get back to where they were before the incidents

26:34 occurred

26:37 um wow now that I've now that I've kind of vomited all that into the microphone

26:43 I'm left sort of speechless there okay there are certain things in here I don't

26:47 know if I'd get insurance for it but there's certain things in here that I can actually totally defend I'm going to

26:53 Advocate this a little bit let do let's do it hit me hit me hit me bro come at

26:57 me bro loser that's one we're going to need

27:00 like a counter if it okay if I had Insurance on this and I was like

27:05 specific person and pointed out you you'd lose in like a day right but this

27:10 is online harassment I harass you in person hang outs and stuff that's that

27:14 is online is it online if you're in the same building

27:19 yes really yes so so it's still going out to a

27:25 server and then coming back so snapping like dick and hang out sing them to you that would

27:30 be hold on hold on on the internet comes back that's online if you're in the same

27:34 building but but if what if I'm in the

27:37 same room what if I'm in the same room if we were literally like and it was

27:40 both of us that would still be online okay okay anyway car car a willing

27:45 participant then that wouldn't be harassing carry on carry on okay so so

27:48 defend it defend anyways so if you are someone uh like say remember the Boston

27:54 bombing yes terrible not cool thing yep

27:57 we did it rdit if you're one of the people that

28:00 they targeted and you get death threats and stuff and you did nothing that sucks

28:05 and having a team of people backing you up and doing what is this one uh rep

28:09 reputation management team y that would

28:12 probably be helpful because that totally wasn't their fault and they got

28:16 massively trolled on and that probably sucks on like many different levels the

28:22 thing is while there's definitely cases

28:25 where online trolling goes way too far and his like super not okay like the

28:29 Boston bombing thing where they picked the wrong person and there's definitely

28:32 other examples of this I think the vast majority of the usage for this is going

28:37 to be tempted to be claimed on things

28:41 that are totally bull crap and one of my notes on here is that I'm hoping it's

28:45 only for Ultra aggressive cases like where I'm talking about with the Boston

28:49 boming thing totally wasn't their fault totally got slammed on really really

28:53 badly and totally wasn't their fault I think it's mostly going to be be like

28:58 kids on COD yelling at each other and then one of them getting sad and

29:01 someone's parents being like well I have this troll insurance thing let's just I

29:05 don't know they're all Cod players so that's a

29:09 group so I mean it's one of those things

29:12 where like and it comes back to like I was

29:17 making light of it before but the line between online harassment and in-person

29:21 harassment is very very gray um like

29:25 it's you know PE people who don't

29:28 believe in cyber bullying will often say well just unplug your internet

29:32 connection but it is very RAR I don't believe in a lot of what people Define

29:35 as cyber bullying no and that's true of me as well but but it does exist

29:41 something that people have to be aware of is that when the line is gray it can

29:45 be uh it can it can be something that can't be gotten rid of as easily as

29:50 unplugging an Ethernet cable like or just not playing that game cuz if if you

29:55 if you like aren't very good at legal Legends and people make fun of you for

29:58 it a lot maybe ignore chat or just if

30:02 that affects you that much just don't play league or play against bots or

30:05 something and another option would be to get better yeah like I don't count that

30:10 as like you just need to but there are

30:13 but there are many instances where the online cyber bullying can bleed over

30:18 into real life like it's you know someone sharing uh uh uh an you know

30:23 improperly obtained picture of you and then having to deal with the Fallout of

30:27 that that's a I didn't even think about that that's brutal so so the line the

30:30 line is very gray between what is what is online harassment and what is

30:34 inperson harassment because they can they can become one and the same and

30:37 it's not always as simple as just like oh well I just won't go online if I put

30:41 my head in the sand I mean it's funny because it's the same group of people saying well just ignore it as the same

30:46 group of people that would make fun of people for putting their head in the sand and ignoring a problem so like if

30:51 if if literally the forensic specialist That's tracing the origins of your

30:55 trolling is like oh you're bad at video

30:59 games then I don't know man figure it

31:03 out if it's random Anonymous people on the internet talking to you in a very

31:06 contained situation and once you stop playing that game it's over maybe find a

31:11 solution I don't know leave chat don't read chat do something if you're

31:17 actually being like improperly obtained picture yeah we

31:21 did it Reddit if it's like one of those types of situations like sure I think

31:25 this makes sense yeah but I mean they're they they're going to there's going to

31:28 be at least paying for troll Insurance because you think that's going to happen to you is

31:33 insane most insurance is set up like that where the odds are so slim that

31:38 you'd actually kind of like I mean you look at the the ma the way the math

31:41 works yeah is there have to be enough suckers who are paying for it and don't

31:46 need it to compensate for everyone who claims it and lots more that's the whole

31:51 idea that's insurance so I did get a uh

31:54 I did get like stop playing lead

31:58 oh I got I got a message I have to interrupt this program to bring you a

32:01 shout out for marks I don't know if he wants me to give his last name but I

32:06 promised him a shout out on the dual quad core old server gaming rig thing I

32:12 thought you did I thought I did too but it didn't make it into the Final Cut and

32:15 then I swear I watched it I asked for it to be added to the YouTube one and then

32:19 I never well I never watched the YouTube one so maybe it did get added maybe he's trolling me I swear I it said something

32:25 someone gave me this anyways whatever whatever it was Marx Who provided the

32:29 Zeon no not marks Work Warehouse no not

32:32 Carl Marx okay well anyway the point is he

32:38 provided the motherboard and the xeons and the RAM and the idea for doing that

32:42 video so I wanted to give a massive massive shout out to uh to to to Marks

32:47 here who is apparently watching the show so good job watching the show hi marks

32:52 you excellent person he also does some writing now for us maybe I watch Like a

32:56 pre-cut can this can this finish processing no the YouTube announcement

33:01 is not done processing yet I don't know what they're doing they've got hamsters

33:05 running the servers right now apparently so I'm gonna I'm going to try uploading

33:09 it again and see if oh that's from last

33:12 week I do not want that to go up to the oh why why do you hate me

37:21 of the new ones home that's like did no I didn't take both of them I didn't even

37:25 know we had to yeah we have yeah I I snagged one like I knew you snagged one

37:29 so fast so fast so iix it has guides for

37:34 how to take apart your mobile devices put them back together um computers uh

37:38 desktops even laptops phones tablets all that kind of stuff and they have a full

37:43 lineup of tools that help you do it this is actually this is a really old one I

37:47 think um but everything from their Protek toolkit to their their more wait

37:52 no this is the this is the 52 driver kit sorry so the Protek tool kit which has

37:57 an ESD strap and like some pry tools and

38:01 actually their new one is even better it's got their suction cup in it and all

38:04 kinds of cool stuff all the way up to even like entire full like briefcase

38:08 size kits with a multimeter uh all the drivers the other set of drivers which

38:13 we have around here somewhere as well the problem is we can never keep track of where these are because we use them

38:17 so often and we have so many but they're great I love them why we have Taran half

38:23 the time I go into that room Taran has one on the desk next to him the new one

38:26 wonder if he does anyway the point

38:30 is um they've got all the stuff you need and you can save $10 on a purchase of

38:35 $50 or more by heading over to

38:48 you're always watching The W show to get the latest iix it offer

38:55 from work just took it no one better have like taken it home

38:59 also well you did for one of them well I took one of them I'm the boss I can and

39:03 I took part of one I didn't take like the whole did you check it out no we

39:08 don't enter tools in the system wow so I can just take tools home well you have

39:12 to let me know I let you know see

39:16 communication

39:20 okay but it wasn't here when we needed it that's true it wasn't here the new

39:24 one's really nice it is that's magnetic yeah it's got more stuff and it's yeah

39:28 it's it's really nice anyways all right so let's get into our next somewhat

39:32 touchy uh somewhat touchy topic here okay this is so stupid with how 2015 is

39:37 going everything's a touchy topic 2015 20 yeah oh oh balls okay I

39:46 just screwed up a thing well you know what balls touch H touchy are you are

39:51 you propositioning me I thought I already did that oh right but on on

39:59 air all right so this is this is worth

40:03 this is worth having yeah okay yeah okay

40:07 so the National Crime agency this is what UK or something right yeah um

40:12 released this TV ad spot which we can

40:16 have a quick look at basically it's the kind of the two over enthusiastic

40:21 parents I don't know if you guys have audio I'm just going to turn it off regardless right I turned off the wrong

40:25 thing um um so they're bragging about

40:28 how when he loses an online game he just takes down the server and oh those dos

40:34 things he does them all the time he's so smart they actually I thought they did a

40:37 really good job of this spot overall so they're bragging about what he's doing

40:41 etc etc etc and the punchline

40:45 is Bippity boity

40:49 uh so yeah I guess that's um what else

40:52 do what else do you want to know they like start at the beginning

40:57 and then yeah now we're in an interrogation room now to be clear there

41:02 was some Scare Tactics involved here of course it's like this kid could be yours

41:07 and it's got to do one of those cyber crime Rex lives kind of things because I

41:12 think those are those are mandatory by law in any kind of public service

41:16 announcement or uh or like like warning type thing I guess PSA would probably be

41:20 the correct term for this um

41:25 but the issue that I have with how people

41:32 are receiving this is is is okay well

41:35 first first let's first let's get into this so I'm going to start with our

41:39 source here so blogs are taking this

41:42 campaign and I think running completely the wrong direction with it yeah that's

41:46 a really obnoxious ad hey yeah so this Blog the next web yeah I know I know

41:51 super obnoxious site the writing isn't much better goes okay according to the

41:56 National Crime agency the UK's version of the FBI they have a new campaign

42:00 that's aimed at cutting cyber crime especially amongst teams teams teens

42:05 teens teens not teams cyber crime teams are by the so this is where it this is

42:09 where it goes all fullon sensationalist never go full sensationalist by the

42:13 nca's definition we might all be super hackers here's what to look for is your

42:17 child spending all of the time all of their time online are they interested in

42:21 coding do they have Independent Learning material on Computing do they have

42:24 irregular sleeping patterns do they get an income from their online activities

42:28 do you know why and how are they resistant when asked about what they do

42:32 online do they use the full data allowance of the home broadband have

42:35 they become more socially isolated hey Mom in fact oh yeah I know right me too

42:41 everything in fact all these warning signs would apply to my friends and

42:44 colleagues blah blah blah but I'm not a I'm not a cyber criminal as you can see

42:48 no parent should assume that any of these things are precursors to a life of infamy and really badass scenes of movie

42:54 hackery they're not saying bottom line hold on the bottom line according to

42:58 this blogger talk to your kids well this blogger never read the actual the actual

43:04 NCA page nice flowers Dennis because that's

43:08 exactly what they said here it is here's the actual

43:13 article that people should probably look at before crapping all over what I think

43:17 is actually a fairly wellp put together little piece here so what is cyber crime

43:23 they give examples of cyber crime gaining access to someone's computer network with without their permission

43:26 making supplying or obtaining malware carrying out dos distributed denial of

43:30 service attacks they don't even include the I mean I think probably the most

43:36 outstanding thing about this this article here and this campaign is that

43:41 they're not even going after piracy they're ignoring piracy they don't even

43:45 mention it they're not like they're not even including piracy under the same

43:48 umbrella as cyber crime something that I wish more people had noticed and would

43:52 have realized is actually a pretty important distinction because they're

43:56 really not the same thing okay someone chat said rip tinu who will save us now

44:01 that's actually kind of funny yeah into the system into the ACC that's going Ed

44:08 yeah um so then they go on to say okay well here's the consequences and they

44:12 don't even say you're going to go to jail forever you could get a visit and

44:15 warning from police or NC off officers you could get arrested their computers

44:19 could be seized and they could be prevented from being allowed to access the internet penalties are fine up to 10

44:23 years in prison for serious offenses

44:27 things to look out for are they resistant when asked what they do online

44:31 do they get an income from their online activities do you know why and how it's

44:34 funny how when I read this in a different voice it doesn't sound like such a crazy thing are they spending all

44:38 of their time online do they have irregular sleeping patterns have they become more socially isolated okay many

44:44 of these things are just normal teenage behaviors this is right out of the

44:48 freaking article basically the second line take it in isolation they don't

44:53 necessarily suggest that a young person is at risk risk of being involved they

44:57 are just possible indicators that your child is getting into the wrong

45:01 activities if you're MLG pro it's fine if a young person is showing several of

45:05 these signs try and have a conversation with them about their online activities

45:08 this will allow you to assess their computer knowledge proficiency so you can understand what they're doing

45:13 explain the consequences of cyber crime and help them make the right choice

45:17 there's nothing wrong with the way that this is written and then there's another

45:20 video If you scroll down a little bit this is great ways to use cyber skills

45:24 positively so here's a bunch of stuff and then this video is great former

45:27 hacker ex- haacker went to jail he was

45:30 like yep if I had realized if someone

45:34 well he he said if someone had presented opportunities to me I would have done it

45:38 so the whole idea here isn't actually about like oh my God your kid's a

45:43 criminal it's like maybe talk to them and show them like hey you're interested

45:48 in this stuff that's cool you can there's a whole bunch different job

45:51 paths you can go down and so you know I think a lot of the time people will go

45:56 like oh they're saying that if I have computer skills I'm a hacker H yeah

46:00 anyone with coding skills is a hacker well no but not everyone with

46:05 lockpicking skills is a burglar but with that said or you are a hacker but not in

46:10 the bad way yes and if my son or daughter is picking up a lot of

46:15 lockpicking skills spending a lot of time out late at night and has

46:19 inexplicable new possessions which is pretty much what that list was saying

46:23 that doesn't mean I'm I it doesn't mean that they're a burglar they could be

46:28 they could have a a lockpicking job on the side for a locksmith and know

46:32 someone that works a lot and can only hang out at night time or whatever but

46:37 that doesn't mean I shouldn't have that conversation hey what are you up to you

46:41 know that if you're doing something that's not a good thing to be up to that

46:45 that can be a problem these are the consequences this is your life you need to hon that's all the NCA is saying if

46:51 your parenting style happens to be one of those ones where you're like Ultra

46:55 involved with your kids interests there's a lot of really cool hacking

46:58 stuff you can do that's like not criminal even remotely and they outline

47:03 a lot of that stuff yeah like there's some really cool [ __ ] you can do making

47:07 things work the way you want them to work is a very cool thing and it's fun

47:13 so so there you go I just wanted to throw another another voice into the the

47:19 mix of people that are that are trash talking this because they apparently

47:23 didn't take the it's not even a long article it took me like a minute and a

47:28 half to read it and go this is perfectly fine they've actually tackled this in

47:32 probably the best way they possibly could because the reality of it is is a

47:36 lot of the people leaving comments on that video are being elitist to douches

47:41 about it quite frankly this campaign is designed for not you techsavvy

47:46 youngsters yeah I know that you guys are you know oh I know what a DOS is you

47:51 know blah blah blah if it's in this context you know whatever like

47:56 understand all this stuff but they were trying to present it in terms that like

47:59 my mom would understand or maybe someone slightly younger than my mom I'm not

48:03 exactly a teen someone in chat was like Luke they're called Network

48:06 professionals or app developers no they're not that's that's not the only

48:10 types of hacking at all that's not the well that's not the only types of ethical hacking at all there's stuff you

48:14 can do at home that affects literally zero other people that is hacking that

48:18 has nothing to do with networking it has nothing to do with app development and

48:22 it's fine and they even Define the cyber

48:26 crime what is a cyber crime really really well it's when you access someone

48:30 else's Network without permission you can access someone else's network with

48:34 permission and that can be hacking if they're if you're if you're saying okay

48:38 I'm going to try and keep you out you try and get in that's that that's

48:41 practice think of it that way I think there's still relative laws around that

48:45 but if you do it like in a contained environment and stuff they have

48:48 hackathons yeah like which are actually hacking in some cases and they're like

48:54 good it's helpful so yeah there you go

48:58 Tesla has like huge bounties on if you can hack something in the model S tell

49:02 them how you did it maybe work with them on how to solve the problem

49:06 great all right so let's get into the

49:10 funniest topic of the week probably

49:14 completely unintentionally funny although part of me really does Wonder

49:19 like are they just seeing how far they

49:22 can push things is that what apple is up

49:26 to at this point this has been making okay the okay

49:30 the white case is literally

49:33 hilarious they've been make it reminds me of a scene from Alien it's like I I

49:39 feel like I feel like a battery alien is going to like push itself out of the

49:44 back of the phone there was a point in time where like we can hate on Apple as

49:48 much as you want but there was a point in time that if you walked into an Apple Store you could pretty much assume that

49:53 everything especially directly from Apple was probably solid in terms of

49:57 like design manufacturing this is not

50:01 for like a bunch of reasons horr one of

50:05 them the the material that it is picks

50:08 up things and clings to it so there's there's a video Lou has onbox therapy

50:13 where he puts the white one in his jeans pocket and he shows like these are

50:17 they're not the loosest jeans ever but they're definitely not skinny jeans ever

50:21 either um drops the phone in his pocket pulls it back out and it's like covered

50:25 in L like what it's like I've given a

50:30 lot of crap to companies over the years that have released products that I like

50:35 what I like to say is obviously no one ever actually used it um like antec had

50:40 a case what was it the uh the dark force DF 85 or something like that I know what

50:46 you're referencing but I I I remember talking to I think you about it where I

50:49 was just like did anyone at antech build a computer in this Tower oh yeah yeah

50:53 yeah yeah okay yeah and I was pretty sure that they did not must not um this

50:59 really feels this really feels like one of those kinds of things where where

51:03 about you'll see him standing up he's standing up uh I don't think it's yeah he puts

51:10 the phone in first so it's a little bit after this where does he stand up dang

51:14 it Lou it's before that bit oh here we

51:17 go here we go okay so lineus screen share there we go there's our buddy Lou

51:21 so he puts a white fo in his pocket takes it back out and then look at this he doesn't even get that close in on it

51:26 yeah and like but it's like covered in junk so it's just like what what are you

51:31 what are you actually doing um this this is really great I was reading um I was

51:36 reading the comments under someone in the chat has a tf85 and okay he's pretty

51:40 upset he said that I'm sorry to hear that um okay so uh this was really great

51:45 I was reading comments on someone's article about this somewhere and they're

51:49 just like yeah I at the Apple Store I work at we're all just still

51:53 recommending the Mofi case that we still

51:57 stock that's like way way Slicker in

52:00 terms of design has a higher capacity battery and just we like we can't figure

52:06 out any advantage to the first party accessory here so apparently it's been

52:12 nicknamed the hump already um saw a really great meme already someone

52:16 photoshopped a picture of uh uh Apple's new lead designer and it's just a camel

52:20 in the middle of the desert apparently this is sexy now

52:27 so I mean here's what I have to say my

52:31 favorite thing about this and I don't remember if I already said this on the show or if I said this in the in the

52:35 show announcement or whatever but this this is what I have to say about this I

52:40 had a really great week because this week I guess couple weeks I got my hands

52:45 on the surface book yeah I know you didn't have a great week I got my hands

52:49 on the surface book Microsoft's clear

52:52 acknowledgement clear message to me directly that I was right and that the

52:57 Surface Pro 3 is not a replacement for a laptop because if it was they wouldn't

53:02 have needed to release a laptop so I really enjoyed that like it made me feel

53:06 so warm and fuzzy inside uh not warm and fuzzy enough to not return the Surface

53:10 Book I did end up doing that I was prepared to keep it if it was good

53:13 enough okay but I still prefer the blade 14 um even though I don't game really

53:18 much at all on it um and then this clear

53:23 indication that apple is acknowledging

53:26 that I was right it is time to

53:29 acknowledge that the iPhone's battery is not good enough and that if that's what

53:34 it takes if a cluggy solution with a hump hanging off the back of it is what

53:39 it takes it's time to lose the snobby attitude about making it making it

53:44 thinner and making it more flat or

53:49 whatever and just make a slightly thicker phone it could even be a

53:52 different model like the iPhone 6s extended or whatever you want or the 6E

53:58 or whatever you want to call it one that has better

54:02 battery that would be great

54:08 thanks so uh yeah I guess that's all there wow is that all there is to really

54:12 say about it it's really stupid man what were they thinking there's nothing it it

54:16 picks up lint it doesn't look very good I've heard that it doesn't feel very

54:20 good in terms of material but I'm not sure about that I've heard that it feels

54:23 awkward to hold in your fit hand great also Apple's acknowledgement that a

54:27 curved shape at the back is probably easier to hold although Apple you went

54:31 about it all wrong just throwing that out there you could see the LG G4 for

54:37 pointers a curved back without also having a flat back and some weird like

54:42 spandex leotard that it wears that is like stuffed to make its junk look

54:46 bigger and like a lot of people have been saying it super just looks like

54:50 they had a whole bunch of batteries and they're like hey we can put some

54:54 material around it sell them I guess like it it doesn't

54:59 look like a product design thing it looks like a hey we have a lot of these

55:02 let's find some way to get rid of it which I don't believe is what happened

55:06 to be very clear no no but it looks that way which is bad yeah it really look you

55:11 don't want it to look that way compatibility at least it works with the

55:15 six so at least they didn't be like yeah it's only for 6s customers right

55:21 um yeah I don't know yeah

55:26 yeah this is great oh yeah wired couldn't even get a full charge off the

55:30 case it's only about a 75% charge so that puts it somewhere in the

55:34 neighborhood of probably around, 1600 milliamp hours it's not even equivalent

55:37 to the onboard battery so wow so full of

55:42 fail um so I guess we're into kind of

55:45 Rapid Fire topics for the day y it's gonna be kind of a short show today I

55:48 guess is okay not that short liking the

55:52 wrong picture on Facebook can get you in prison in Thailand to be clear this is

55:57 something that um Thai people are mostly

56:01 aware of but defaming the monarchy is illegal under the criminal Tha criminal

56:05 code 112 so um yeah

56:10 basically in a nutshell this this guy uh

56:13 was sentenced to 30 years in prison his Facebook activity was deemed insulting

56:17 to the monarchy people are just making fun of 10 years in prison for hacking

56:22 yeah yeah years Inon

56:26 that some pretty brutal stuff I was reading an article about this and uh one

56:29 of the comments under it was what about freedom of speech yeah freedom of speech

56:33 is like not a thing in a lot of parts of the world

56:36 actually this is cool actually I had not

56:40 seen this I must have skipped over this speed test.net now allows users to check

56:44 their internet speeds using HTML 5 no

56:47 more flash required God very excellent I wonder if the test work webite felt so

56:53 old I want to uh I want to do a speed speed test right now I'm going to do one

56:56 remember it's not going to be 100% accurate I know I know but I'm going to do it anyway I'm going to do it anyway

57:01 don't screenshot it don't scre I will not screenshot it oh what you oh what do

57:04 you have to do they've got an HTMI HTML

57:07 5 beta site that you have to access so I'm going to have to I'll go find beta

57:11 dot uh I don't know um I'll find it you

57:15 keep doing things I want to find it you do a thing get

57:20 wrecked what if we just both try to find it what if we just both try to find it

57:24 good good idea I think it is beta

57:29 dot oh I think so way to go

57:35 Luke I blame you for this no no it's not or it's not

57:40 oh oh so bad www doesn't

57:49 work how long did it take you to resolve that on line Tech tips.com 10 minutes

57:54 did we have that Pro yeah exactly oh we

57:58 didn't have it set up correctly for like a bit and I was like hey Luke when you

58:02 type in the www it doesn't work you're like oh yeah

58:05 right okay I don't even remember all

58:09 right all right you doing it it'sing yeah so it doesn't look like there's

58:13 nothing really going on so they're like hm 5 we'll do basically yeah it looks

58:18 kind of different I can add like don't worry don't worry I got this just be

58:21 careful I I got this i got this

58:25 so there you go looks a little something like that high speed inter interwebs uh

58:30 it doesn't work properly for us um I've talked to our ISP about the fact that

58:35 our internet never tests at the speed that we're it's supposedly rated at and

58:39 they're just like well cold hard truth is this um the the servers that are

58:45 hosting speed test services are they're

58:48 not exclusive to that and they've got gigabit pipes so unless you're speed

58:52 testing to a server that has a gigabit pipe has nothing else going on and has

58:57 no one else running a speed test you're not going to see your full speed because you're on a gigabit pipe and I'm like

59:02 that makes sense I just kind of assumed that like they were more powerful as it

59:06 seems to be working yeah like we get the effective speeds yeah but like I can

59:12 upload something faster than 285.0 megabit per second right now yeah that's

59:17 what that's what I mean like it's it's not like our Internet's working it's

59:21 just it's speed test it's like nope your internet's too fast I can't measure it

59:25 and there are cases where you can measure full gigabit like for example in

59:28 Google's campus I was able to get one millisecond ping gigabit up gigabit down

59:32 but that was because the speed test server is probably in the same damn building wouldn't be surprised so at all

59:38 so there you go with that wouldn't that

59:41 just kill you if you lived like 10

59:44 blocks away from like a Google building or something like that and you couldn't

59:47 get Google Fiber it's like c c can I just can I just run like a really long

59:52 Ethernet cable speaking of running a really long Ethernet cable it's

59:56 confirmed um ubiquity networks is

60:00 sending us their dish-based pointto point gigabit gear I was just going to

60:05 actually say I wonder if you just got close enough that you could have like an access point or a repeater grab their

60:10 Wi-Fi send it to a landline and then like shoot it to your house um try to

60:15 feed off of like Google's internet not

60:18 that you should ever do that I don't condone anything that I just said fairly sure that breaks at least several laws

60:24 yep so so but anyway back to the thing that we could do that would be legal not

60:28 a good plan is this gear is capable of like 40 km links I don't know if you can

60:34 get full gigabit with a 40 km link but

60:38 there's a couple different ways we're going to try and tackle it we're either going to do like a moving Vlog like a

60:43 project Vlog style thing where we try and get a gigabit link to my house from

60:48 the office which I would absolutely love

60:51 and would be awesome I'll just I'll keep I don't think that's going to work I I

60:55 don't think it's going to work either just cuz of like we'd have to get really

60:58 high obstructions yeah like physically High because of obstructions like like

61:04 up vertical you have to like Minecraft it like this isn't really going to work

61:08 with that said I am on the strata Council oh my God our neighbor hold on

61:12 just just just hold on just hold on just just bear with me what about your house

61:15 hold on or do you just want to go high enough that you can like angle it down

61:18 okay just just wait just calm down for a second okay I'm on the strata Council

61:22 neighbor our neighbor our ba neighbor who like Bes he's on the Strat Council

61:28 I'd be like I'd be like yo dog can you vote with me on this I want to put a

61:32 giant antenna on top of our unit he'd be like yeah whatever man you just offer

61:37 yeah to be fair he would and two if you were like if you buy the equipment I can

61:40 put one up for you too he'd be super down so so yeah so yeah so it's like

61:44 it's like he's a cool guy and there's a

61:47 tree near my house that is like pretty

61:51 tall and I'm pretty sure you're not allowed to do this but I was say is it yours no but it's really close to my

61:56 house paint the antenna green yeah yeah I I've got camo tap I mean don't listen

62:00 to me I've got I've got camo duct tape dog so oh my god there you

62:07 go so oh my goodness if it can be done we're either going to do that or if

62:11 that's just a total disaster and isn't going to happen uh we can't get approval

62:15 or whatever else you've heard of like Pirate Radio stuff right yeah oh yeah oh

62:20 yeah oh yeah then my parents live on the 39th floor or something have a highrise

62:25 oh no so I'm going to put a unit up there and I'm going to try and get a

62:28 link to like my house or something oh my God so that's the backup going to make

62:32 your own giant local network it's going to be freaking awesome one way or

62:36 another I'm super stoked uh we did get two units but one of them is not one of

62:41 them's like the consumer grade one so I don't know if it's going to do that long of a

62:45 link anyway um so super cool that's

62:49 gonna I'm so I am so down for a gigabit

62:53 link to the office so yeah this is pretty cool this was

62:57 posted on the Forum by Kesh I'm sorry we've been really bad about that lately

63:01 someone in the chat just says uh just said where I work uses this a lot that's

63:07 cool it's cool stuff I'm assuming it's either shorter and or clearer runs

63:12 though yep or they like or they have access to towers and permission to use

63:17 them yeah yeah we don't none of those that's what this gear is used for a lot

63:20 of the time is for like uh mobile internet service providers um like like

63:25 cellular data carriers is they're going to have these on their towers so they'll

63:29 have point-to-point links all over the place like if you look at a cell tower

63:32 it's going to have like tons of dishes on it so um so one of the ones that we

63:37 got is like kind of a consumer Grady one that's actually fairly affordable and

63:41 could be great for if you have like a back shed or a barn or something super

63:45 cool solution we might do a separate video about that there was a guy that I

63:49 knew in high school now keep in mind this sounds like a huge amount of

63:52 property but where I went to high school is pretty far out and then where they

63:55 lived was like beyond that so this is like deep in Farmville um not the game

64:01 yeah so like way back on its property

64:05 like pretty far there was this giant building where they did metal fabrication I did a website for them

64:09 when I was in high school um would have been super helpful for them it wasn't

64:15 very good second it wasn't very oh

64:18 dang um that probably would have helped them a lot cuz they had to run this like

64:23 terrible I think they had a dedicated internet line for that building because

64:27 switching it was like not a good option and all this kind of stuff so if they

64:30 could have just done that that would have been super great um anyway so the other unit we're

64:35 getting is like a carrier carrier grade one so uh that's the one that will be

64:40 running to my house CU I'm the boss if

64:43 uh if we end up doing this look at this guy look at this guy terrible shaking

64:47 his head terrible I am terrible all right so let's uh go ahead meet the

64:53 Android phone with a humongous 10,000 Milah battery now to be clear I'm giving

64:58 Apple crap you should see one year if you can just you know how you got your parents the Sonos thing yeah you should

65:02 see if you can just cover all of your present needs with with your gifting

65:06 present needs with like including like your own so like

65:11 just so the entire month of December should be presents for lonus and his

65:16 family and his friends and his employees is that where you're getting at with

65:19 this I wasn't actually but that

65:23 works um okay so to be clear I'm giving

65:26 Apple crap for shipping 1,800 milliamp hour batteries in their Flagship like

65:30 thousand devices but I'm also not saying that this is necessarily the solution I

65:35 think Apple's battery should be somewhere in the neighborhood of 3,000

65:38 to 3200 milliamp hours that would get you through an actual heavy use stage

65:43 where you actually want to navigate somewhere this is pretty extreme it oh

65:49 there's not that many pictures on that's what I mean like I was trying to look this up all I can really tell is that it

65:53 looks like it's kind of from from the '90s no no there's uh I found more

65:56 pictures of it somewhere else this uh article just doesn't have a lot of pictures I couldn't find any thickness

66:00 pictures cuz if it's not that insanely thick and it happens to have 10,000

66:04 milliamps on it pry cool it's thicker than a droid turbo like it's pretty it's

66:08 pretty hefty the thing that the thing that actually both bothers me about it

66:12 though and is also really cool about it is that I wouldn't want to use it

66:16 because the specs for it are quite low in it's using like G one GHz mediatech

66:21 quad core or something like that um 16 G like total overall storage memory which

66:27 is not very good it is expandable uh 720p display 5 and A2 inch uh display 2

66:32 gigs RAM like it's it's very not amazing

66:37 but what's cool about that is that a 10,000 mamp hour battery it's going to

66:41 power that forever like you would actually probably be able to go about a

66:44 week on this thing seriously uh it supports 4gte on both of its SIM card

66:50 slots so it actually looks pretty interesting um with that said I'm not

66:54 I'm not running out to buy one either I don't know why I'm doing this but

66:57 someone in the chat said help I can't get above 60 FPS in Fallout 4 try

67:00 turning off vsync that's probably your problem okay let's continue okay Spotify

67:05 is reportedly considering making some music available only to paid

67:12 users so um yeah so that it'll be like

67:16 kind of a windowed thing that will withhold certain albums from users who

67:20 aren't paying who are accessing the service freely and purely supported so

67:25 about Spotify has roughly 80 million users 20 million who pay and 60 million

67:30 who don't and the Wall Street Journal reported that Spotify will test this new

67:35 approach Spotify did comment we are 100% committed to our model because we

67:39 believe that a free ad supported tier combined with a more robust premium tier

67:43 is the best way to deliver music to fans create value for artists and songwriters

67:47 and grow the industry in that context we explored a wide range of promotional

67:51 options for the new Coldplay album and ultimately decided together with

67:54 management that Co Planet fans would be best served with the full album on both

67:59 free and premium this Friday so they're

68:02 still committed to doing it the way they were going to do it it's okay um but

68:07 that doesn't mean that they aren't going to experiment with different monetization models because that's the

68:11 thing that the digital age allows us to do which is kind of cool is do things

68:16 that are new and different and give consumers choice I am not going to hate

68:20 on them for this and uh yeah I mean I'm

68:23 ultim glad that they're still doing the free ad supported model even though I

68:27 personally pay for my music streaming service because I really don't want to

68:30 listen to ads in it and I plan to subscribe to YouTube red as soon as I possibly can and all of that stuff which

68:35 who knows I really hope it comes to Canada soon but uh there you go it was maybe

68:41 going to happen and then it didn't happen and speaking of things that were maybe going to happen and didn't happen

68:44 Firefox phone Mozilla has killed the Firefox phone with that said they are

68:50 not writing off the Firefox OS and we

68:53 could see pop up in other devices in the

68:56 future so Mozilla said to Tech crunch well we weren't able to offer the best

69:01 user experience possible so asked it which is a responsible thing

69:06 to do yep I guess that's pretty much all I

69:10 have to say for today yeah I don't know I think that's good oh actually no I

69:14 have one more thing to hate on yep stick around for the hate this is that thing

69:18 that I teased before that wasn't oh yeah I know nothing about this yeah that's

69:22 fine it's really easy this is the most amazing thing that I've seen to date get

69:28 this imagine this oh a pocket PC as

69:32 portable and light as a smartphone yet as powerful as a desktop

69:38 PC you can back it now on Indiegogo I

69:42 would love to see what their Indiegogo page looks like where really learn more

69:47 click the join button I'm in an endless loop join that one there we

69:52 go why have they raised

69:57 $300,000 is it Flex let's find out oh it's done is it

70:02 done oh yeah so they're done original campaign was

70:07 2,945 per funded okay so whoops whoops

70:12 okay back to back to the back to the site you shouldn't be allowed to say

70:17 something this asinine on the internet let's just let's

70:22 just restrict that there internet okay I'm with Mr Trump on this free

70:26 speech bro so it's portable no but this is false advertising it's a completely

70:30 different thing yeah I don't know what it is okay

70:34 well let's let's get I'll wait until I figure what it's portable it's got super

70:39 fast storage the flash storage is much faster than regular commonly used 5400

70:43 RPM hard diss it is silent it is Intel

70:48 powered combined with two gigs of RAM and and an Intel highdef graphics card

70:52 you shouldn't be allowed to call call onboard Graphics a graphics card by the way it is not on a card it is especially

70:58 not on a card because you could make the argument that a motherboard is just a big card back in the days when the igpu

71:04 was on the North Bridge it is especially not a card now that it's on die with a

71:09 super fast 2.4 and 5 GHz Wi-Fi card also

71:13 oh that probably is a card and integrated Bluetooth 4.0 you can connect

71:16 to devices within the blink of an eye and browse and watch online videos

71:21 possessive should have probably spell checked I mean I try not to be a

71:24 nitpicky person about that kind of stuff if you're not being a complete [ __ ]

71:28 but that's not what's Happening Here quicker than ever before is it is it in

71:32 this next picture uh not really that's it so

71:36 that's the PC quad core Intel Adam Bay tril okay so

71:42 a bay tril is not a desktop processor this is not faster than a desktop

71:46 processor and while it isn't bigger than a phone it also isn't more than a phone

71:50 it's just a phone also Intel has much

71:54 more powerful PCS that are exactly the same size or very similar if maybe a

72:01 little bit bigger like a little bit taller is thicker yeah it's not as long

72:05 though but Gigabyte has bricks ones that are thinner if I recall correctly so um

72:10 yeah so there's a thing that totally exists there's also the Intel compute

72:14 stick yep which is smaller than this and I believe probably way more usable I

72:17 don't remember if it's a quad or a dual core though so not fast but like what

72:22 are you going to do on this that you can't do onter sick one HDMI output why

72:26 are we funding this this is this is stuff that exists already this is and

72:32 like the the thing that really makes me mad is not that it's a tiny computer

72:36 that's fine let me see if twitch a pocket PC as portable and light as a

72:40 smartphone yet as powerful as a desktop PC come on come on the super fast quad core it's

72:46 literally the slowest quad core they make the super fast quad core Intel

72:50 processor ensures you have enough power to use serious speed for any t people in

72:54 chat are claiming that the compute stick is a quad core yeah I think I think it

72:57 might be I don't I did the video I should probably know but I don't remember yeah but we don't always

73:01 remember everything that we uh everything that we make a video about we make a video literally every day give a

73:05 break like the compute stick was usable and it's kind of in an interesting form

73:09 factor and you can plug it directly into a monitor and like but what it isn't as

73:13 as powerful as a desktop no but that wasn't the point yes whereas this that's

73:18 my issue yeah is they're just being ass

73:22 Hats about the whole thing

73:25 so uh yeah I guess that's pretty much all I

73:29 have to say about that there it is there's the Serius B so the fusion C is

73:34 just probably what Zotac does

73:40 yep so are both of those probably yep

73:43 with that said if they have a nice ID like I can see them having a place but I

73:47 just I hate it when you're misrepresenting what it is entirely it's like it's no bigger or heavier than a

73:51 smartphone well yeah that's cuz it basically as a smartphone without a screen or a

73:55 battery I could make a smartphone that's

73:59 well okay I personally couldn't but you could take a smartphone I could take a

74:02 smartphone take the battery and screen off of it there you go business

74:08 model oh wow sell the screens as
