Windows 9 Windows 9 Windows no Windows 9
0:04
Windows 9 N does that does that mean that like
0:10
they're that's the directive internally is that they can't do anything stupid if
0:15
someone comes up with a suggestion it's like n
0:20
no must be good we want to take out the start
0:25
n that' be awesome because it is we want to limit direct X compatibility to just
0:29
the that actually kind of
0:33
works that was awesome I really liked
0:36
that one welcome to the show guys it's the W show time again it's Friday and
0:41
it's been it's been a hell of a couple weeks actually I I figured it out last
0:47
night I was like why am I so far behind
0:50
on all of my work it's like wait cuz we
0:53
did a lot of stuff in the last 10
0:56
business days I have spent
1:01
four of them in the office okay cuz I was at or four and a
1:06
half cuz I was at Highlander Monday Tuesday Wednesday last week and I
1:10
dragged my tired ass into the office for Wednesday afternoon and like wrote a
1:14
script and I was like zombie descripting
1:18
and then I had Thursday before it was
1:22
Friday where I go to NC and then do W show so it's a total write off and then
1:26
I came in this week worked Monday Tuesdays a Canadian holiday it's Canada
1:31
day I wish I had a Canadian flag to wave hoay I slept in and read a book um I
1:38
gardened we're awesome I know right
1:41
seriously I I I came in on Wednesday anyway so then I got to work Wednesday
1:45
Thursday this week and that's it I've had four days to do all the things that
1:49
I normally do in eight days um yay
1:53
anyway so I was talking to Brandon when I came in we're filming something and
1:56
he's like I was like he's like what did you do on your day off I'm like oh I did
2:00
gardening he's like oh that's stupid why I'm like cuz I'm a homeowner
2:06
[ __ ] it's nice that you live with your
2:09
parents someone's got to do it I did my I did my charity stream
2:15
thing on the weekend because there was that extra day though so that was cool
2:19
so you could just be a zombie at work and I probably wouldn't on Mond you were
2:23
fine you were fine I was totally fine because what I did was I forced myself
2:27
to only sleep for like 4 hours or something and then I went to bed again
2:31
at like 11:00 M so then I got a full night sleep right okay that makes sense
2:37
I guess I'll let it just don't touch it just don't touch it get out leave no
2:42
Brandon Brandon stop he runs away you have the door
2:49
open come back and then leave again
2:53
should throw something at him when he comes in range boom you just got shave
2:58
buttered anyway welcome to the show guys we
3:02
haven't actually managed to say or do anything yet there's a little bit of
3:06
news this week there's a lot of little things not a whole lot of big exciting
3:09
stuff although one big exciting thing is Samsung has released the first SSD on
3:16
the market with 3D nand I like that 3D
3:22
oh I see okay nand now with 30% more 3D
3:25
um anyway so that's more D they they talked about it at their Summit you
3:29
can't actually buy one yet but it's coming soon and this is exciting for a
3:33
number of reasons also in the news this week 1080p 60 FPS is and I quote a
3:39
transformative experience finally a game developer saying the right thing and
3:44
it's a console game well yeah the game he's talking about it's we need more
3:47
Flags to wave I'll settle for a one wipe Charlie oh actually it's funny cuz
3:52
Dollar Save Club isn't even a sponsor of the W show today which is why you're
3:56
using a one wipe Charlie as a flag which is white and you're waving it like this
4:00
so you're surrendering I'm not no I'm not uh this is what the console people
4:05
who think that 30 FPS is enough would
4:08
go all right what else we got today Tesla Model E I'm not going to say
4:13
anything more than that just Tesla Model E yeah um and krych UK staff not coming
4:18
to work which is not a yeah no that that's not good that's not good at all
4:23
all
4:26
rightward that didn't work nope I have to change the the settings do not
4:30
remember playback position and we're back and back again and there we go
4:36
yay I love this show oh man we should just we should
4:41
just have like named it the new show nothing ever works there you go the the
4:48
new show it's like news and nothing ever works it's like it's like a double on
4:53
tonra yeah it's like how PHP freaking genius PHP the P stands for
4:58
PHP really yeah oh that's terrible all
5:02
right so speaking of things that are not terrible Squarespace is one of our
5:06
sponsors today get 10% off your Squarespace subscription with offer code
5:12
lonus also a sponsor of the show and this is a new sponsor today is 54 Club
5:17
they actually have a special Fourth of July deal which we'll tell you more
5:22
about later on and actually I completely did the wrong thing that wasn't what I
5:27
meant to do well whatever the lower third is there so you guys
5:30
I gave away the deal I didn't mean to tell them the deal yet it was supposed
5:33
to do the splash thing that we showed at the beginning actually it's going to
5:36
slam Oh yay big freaking
5:40
cable anyway don't look at the deal listen to me talk about it later the
5:44
point is five floor Club is good and we have a special Fourth of July deal for
5:48
our American friends and also the Americans that we hate oh well anyone
5:53
can have it that's the point do do you hate any specific Americans no I'm just
5:59
saying I'm sure sure there's there's got to be one American that I can't stand
6:03
yeah I mean Bieber he's basically American now he doesn't live here
6:08
anymore he's yours now owned okay so let's move on to our
6:14
very first topic of the
6:18
day the 850 pro50 Pro I'm used to saying
6:22
40 on Tech the site where I still go for
6:26
most of my SSD coverage because they still do a Fant fantastic job of SSD
6:31
coverage so the Samsung had a global Summit they talked about v-nand they
6:36
talked about well mostly they talked about Nan so what's the point of the 850
6:42
Pro what's good about it the 840 Pro has been on the market for a long long time
6:49
now and as disappointing as it is that Samsung hasn't released a new Enthusiast
6:55
professional grade SSD the 840 I was like I lik the 840 why is it
6:59
disappointing yeah no no it's disappointing that they haven't released a new one in so long but the cold hard
7:04
truth is that the A40 Pro never really
7:07
got dethroned nope like it kind of did
7:11
There's higher capacity drives now um
7:14
there are slightly faster drives now there are drives with better performance
7:19
consistency such as the Intel 730 series
7:22
but in terms of just like defeating it across the board the 840 Pro has held up
7:27
incredibly well not to mention that Samsung software suite um enables it to
7:32
perform even better so you can do things like you can cash the drive with RAM and
7:36
all that kind of good stuff as they did release the Evo but are you talking
7:39
about like in that same Series yeah I'm talk well the Evo is not as fast as the
7:42
840 Pro yeah I'm just saying like they they have released another so Samsung
7:47
has dropped the 850 Pro on us now and
7:50
it's faster it's higher capacity it goes up to 1 tbte it will potentially deliver
7:56
higher capacities in the future it actually lasts longer which is the first
8:00
time we've seen that in a while one of the big problems with ssds as they've
8:05
progressed throughout the generations is that newer manufacturing processes have
8:11
actually reduced their lifespans now a
8:14
lot of noise gets made about that by hard drive manufacturers or just general
8:21
you know Doom profits those kinds of
8:25
people but the cold hard truth is I believe it's tech report and I know that
8:29
stre systems have got longterm SSD
8:32
reliability tests where we've got ssds that are rated for X number of terabytes
8:37
that are rating like a petabyte of data
8:40
before they actually even here they're talking about it's endurance rated for 150 terabytes but they have one in
8:45
internal testing and this is for the 850 Pro not for existing drives yeah
8:49
internal testing that has gone through over 8 pedabytes so guys don't read too
8:54
much into those rated specs they have been getting lower as time goes on but
8:58
that's what's great about the this new Nan that Samsung has Unleashed Samsung's
9:02
actually been you know it's funny cuz we always expected it to be you know the
9:06
more the more traditional guys like you know an Intel or a micron to be pushing
9:11
all this stuff forward but um Samsung
9:14
was the first to do TLC so that's three bits per cell in their uh crap I'm
9:20
blanking now what Drive was that model names not good with them yeah I think it
9:24
was the 840 anyway yeah it was the 840 so they were the first to do their a TLC
9:29
n Drive s and they were able to achieve good enough reliability and performance
9:33
to make it a an actual product out of it and now they're the First with 3D so I
9:39
think I don't know that's pretty much it other than giving you guys some specifics so we have a clicky link to
9:44
the exact uh the exact specs here and
9:48
it's funny because specs don't really change that much we're still going to be limited by the SATA 3 interface so
9:53
you're still not going to see more than 100,000 random read iops you're still
9:56
not going to see more than 90,000 random WR iops
9:59
but cool things about it are that the lowest capacity Drive doesn't perform
10:04
that much worse than any of the others this is a 128 gig drive so it doesn't
10:09
perform worse and the 128 gig model is
10:13
the one that they have in testing writing over eight pedabytes
10:17
so typically whatever the lowest capacity one is performs the least well
10:23
because it's not able to take advantage of parallelization in its reads and wrs
10:28
and then it also t typically is not going to last as long because just
10:33
simple it's actually really simple math it's kind of cool how simple the math is
10:36
when you have a higher capacity drive and a lower capacity drive and each nand
10:42
cell has X number of Rights of endurance
10:46
if you write X number of terabytes to each of them you're going to be filling
10:49
this let's say you write up the entire capacity of this drive and it's 10 times the capacity of this you just wrote
10:54
every cell here 10 times and every cell here once so a lower capacity Drive is
10:58
just inherently not going to last as long usually going to be slower it's not going to last as long so theoretically
11:04
if Samsung was running that test on their one tab drive it could have done
11:08
80 pedabytes but that's I mean don't quote me on that that's not a rating
11:13
it's just in theory in theory totally
11:17
not okay just forget I ever said he just said Theory very many times don't forget
11:22
in theory there's a lot of overhead involved in wear leveling and the
11:25
algorithms that keep the nand working for so long that will make it not not
11:29
scale 100% like that let's just be really clear about that in the first
11:32
place um one of the other things that Samsung's really stepping up their game
11:36
with on the 850 Pro is that they're offering a 10year warranty whoa you
11:41
didn't know that did you I didn't know that part yeah that's aggressive 5 years
11:45
was already in my mind pretty aggressive for a storage device I mean when you
11:49
think about what a warranty is a warranty is within the reasonably usable
11:56
lifespan of the product this is going to work dog be confident buying it so for
12:02
something like a computer a three-year warranty is pretty good because you're
12:07
probably going to want to replace it with something Faster by that point or
12:10
you know laptops you'll probably have beaten them up by that point or or or or
12:13
whatever um with the storage device
12:18
especially a little while ago when capacities were really scaling fast five
12:23
years was kind of ridiculous I mean drives that I have that are five years
12:28
old are going to be like 320 250 gig drives like even even 120
12:34
gigaby SSD in five years like dude it's
12:38
like I mean maybe maybe part of it is
12:41
that they're just that confident that they're all going to last so whatever
12:44
we'll just throw a 10 year warranty at it who cares and then maybe part of it
12:48
is just the whole the whole RAM manufacturer mentality where you know
12:52
how every stick of RAM seemingly has a lifetime warranty on it and maybe it's
12:57
just for much the same reason maybe that's exact it 10 years from now no
13:01
one's going to give two craps about this like Edo RAM so whatever lifetime
13:07
warranty if they really want some SD RAM
13:10
or they really want some ddr1 memory 5
13:14
years 10 years 25 years down the road who gives a crap we'll just give it to
13:18
them um for for the number of customers that are actually going to do that
13:21
versus not having a competitive warranty with what your with what the other
13:25
companies are offering I'll be interested to see if other guys match
13:29
this crucial is such a conservative company Intel is such a conservative
13:34
company I mean they blew me away when they offered a 5-year warranty on an
13:37
Intel CPU which let's face it is going
13:40
to last for 5 years or 10 years I mean in general have you ever seen a dead one
13:45
no it just that wasn't like someone
13:49
stepped on this or something like that like one that died in use where the
13:52
person wasn't either a dangerously
13:56
overclocking it or B like physically harmed it probably on purpose they just
14:01
don't die and they still only offer a three-year warranty on their processors
14:06
so I mean for Intel to be confident enough to offer a 10-year warranty
14:10
they'd probably have to be sure it's going to last for like 50 Years anyway
14:14
I'll I'll I'll I'll be interested to see what comes of that um most things are
14:18
over engineered the the rating on how much data is going to go through that SSD is probably over engineered
14:23
considering we're looking at 8 pedabytes in what they're actually doing and 150
14:27
terabytes in the estimation and warranties are definitely over
14:31
engineered if they're if they're warring it for a certain period of time it's
14:35
probably going to last a lot longer than that all right so let's talk a little bit about the changes that they've made
14:39
now I talked about how traditionally as we've scaled down the manufacturing
14:44
process for nend in order to drive capacity up and prices down um the
14:48
reliability and the performance has gotten worse this is just it's just
14:52
because things are getting so packed in that there's things can easily leak from
14:57
one place to another and it just it just doesn't work that well at such a tiny scale so now instead of building out the
15:03
Nan chips two-dimensionally so where they're just spreading things out so
15:07
they have to make everything smaller to keep everything close enough together to even work now Samsung is actually
15:13
stacking it that's what 3D nand is so instead of using a 10 nanometer Class
15:18
Manufacturing process they've actually relaxed to a 40 nanometer Class
15:22
Manufacturing process I mean that's that's like old stuff that's like couple
15:27
gens ago like CPUs that was Advanced
15:31
like this is yeah but that gives them that better
15:35
reliability and that better performance and because they're stacking them they
15:39
can still scale capacity so we could expect to see as they scale the
15:43
manufacturing back down again much much
15:46
higher capacities and much lower prices as time goes on right now it's
15:50
cuttingedge technology you're only going to find it in a pro class product which
15:54
as you can expect the 850 Pro is pretty expensive compared to actually more
15:59
value oriented ssds there's some pretty cheap ssds out there I was going to say
16:02
it's only $10 more for 120 and 240 gig
16:05
capacities compared to an 840 Pro and it is exactly $1 cheaper in the 480 GB
16:11
capacity yeah so that puts it actually very competitively priced against other
16:16
premium drives from guys like Intel with their 730 but not even close to you know
16:22
value stuff like crucial's m550 which comes in at only around just under $300
16:27
for a 500 gig class Drive which is crazy
16:31
I mean is it finally happening are ssds cheap now I don't necessarily think
16:35
we're quite there yet I think I think it's cheap enough that like every single
16:38
time I see a build I'm trying to help them balance their build out so that
16:42
they can get an SSD in there right because it's it's worth it at this point
16:46
but I don't see a ton of people going SSD only systems yet I I see a lot more
16:52
and I am seeing it in general but I still see a lot of people throwing in
16:55
like at least 2 TB hard drive in most their systems yeah now still really big
17:00
and a lot of games coming out like 50 gigs which is insane I feel like I did
17:04
miss something on my blade 14 review now that you're mentioning that now that I'm
17:08
thinking about it the blade 14 is an amazing machine just a spoiler alert
17:12
guys that's actually going to come out sometime next week and for the first
17:16
time ever I awarded something an editor's Choice Award I don't want us to
17:20
start doing that I don't care it's perfect almost it's almost yeah I I'm
17:25
probably never going to award one again in five years I've done it once so so
17:29
let's just leave it at that um but it's
17:32
absolutely fantastic although now that you mention it the problem is that in
17:37
order to make it fit in that amazing form factor they've got one m.2 SSD and
17:43
that was all that was going to fit there is no 2 and 1 half in Drive cage um so
17:48
you're a little bit Limited in terms of storage the the most you can do is
17:53
they've got a 512 gig laptop option and
17:57
then you have to basically buy that up front um they don't even actually
18:00
another knock that I did mention in the review is that it does not have
18:04
upgradeable RAM it has a soldered 8 gigs
18:08
of RAM what there is no 16 gig option so
18:12
they got called out pretty hard for that this this basically perfect judgment
18:16
seems slightly it's have you used it no
18:19
okay well it's pretty amazing I mean having an having an 870m in this no but
18:26
I don't I don't necessarily care about that I don't use the the tabless of this
18:30
very often I mean in my Surface Pro I think I estimated 2% of the time that I
18:35
use this notebook I'm using the tablet that was probably aggressive when I had
18:40
a laptop that could turn into a tablet I actually used it a lot okay but then
18:45
that's it's going to vary so if it doesn't matter to you then it doesn't
18:48
matter to you and the and the 870m doesn't throttle that's kind of cool
18:53
which is it actually boosts a little bit and that was that was two days ago when
18:57
it was super hot yeah yeah that was really so okay we need to I don't like that
19:01
repeatedly hitting the cable Brandon huh oh it's not a big deal I'll grab it okay
19:05
want to move on to our next topic sure if I can figure out what it is do thank
19:10
you for sitting on my headphones you put it there I did not put my headphones
19:13
under your butt are you sure yeah I'm sure pretty sure the butt would have had
19:19
to get there after the headphones did I don't
19:22
know I don't know anyways uh Tesla Tesla
19:26
Model E3000 how did I know that that topic was going to be the first one you
19:30
brought up it's the next one in the dock I didn't even like maybe that's how I
19:34
knew why what do you what do you what did you think I was implying all right
19:37
so we're going to head over to our good buddy John Ringer's website
19:41
TechnoBuffalo is our source for this one at 30 grand the Tesla Model E will be
19:48
the company's most affordable I want to know when they're going to release uh a
19:51
Model T they should totally do it like a
19:56
retrolook electric car that would be really cool actually be badass you know
20:00
those like uh now I'm going to say steampunk but it's not right but when it
20:05
like looks old but they just put like the the like nice cool blue LED lighting
20:09
in it and stuff and it like makes it look this like this weird mash up that
20:12
would be so sweet I would love a wood panel Tesla I'm sure Ford would not have
20:19
any of that no but it would be pretty
20:22
awesome or if they did like if they did like the model like horizontal and
20:27
vertical line the Tesla te I don't think they'd get away with it
20:33
but that would be so cool they could just call it the model and then put the
20:36
symbol for the Tesla tea on the side of it the Tesla Model the Tesla Model dud
20:40
it has like a limited edition run I would love to see that so you can't like
20:44
you can't say it's the Model T messaging Nick oh I better make sure there's
20:49
nothing incriminating here God
20:59
da okay well that's good to know okay so
21:03
let's go ahead and uh oh yeah that's fine not really but sure we'll go with
21:07
it um what was I going to say there's there's not a ton of information yet it
21:12
would be launching in about 2016 yeah so
21:15
we're not exactly close uh it's expected to be about 20% smaller than the current
21:20
model S yeah and they're going to drop things like they're probably going to be swapping out aluminum for steel and a
21:24
few other things like that but like it's a way cheaper car thank you can you like
21:28
push the cable down and then close the door so you don't so they don't Jam the
21:33
thank you thank you
21:36
don't has he done it to your satisfaction yes all right we just
21:41
finished uh like terminating a whole bunch of cat 6A and that cable is huge
21:46
and it's going under the doors and it keeps getting slammed on by the doors and I don't want to destroy my work
21:50
probably slam resistant I mean it's pretty beast in
21:54
every other possible way it is um I think this is actually really cool
21:57
because I'm not going to go buy a new one but that means if it starts at 30
22:00
grand years afterwards it will have to be cheaper
22:05
right I'm I'm pretty stoked I mean the big thing turning me off of the model S
22:09
is number one that I um don't buy new
22:14
cars because I think it's insane and there's like not enough of them because
22:17
it's at a weird price braacket yeah and then number two is that um there's not
22:22
enough used ones yeah yeah so I guess
22:26
those are both really the same thing also it's very very expensive so I used
22:30
Model E a few years after it comes out
22:34
that's going to be when I go electric especially if they have that very
22:37
aggressive battery swapping stuff going on yes that would be pretty sweet I
22:43
don't know I'm pretty excited about this actually needed something like that it's
22:46
going to be cheaper constructed I'll be surprised if they can achieve the same
22:50
range with it uh they're expecting steel construction instead of aluminum
22:54
construction um it's going to come out after the model X so that's the SUV
22:58
model so no time soon but um word on the
23:02
street is it's going to be priced to compete with the Audi A4 and BMW compact
23:06
3 Series so and if if they do this and if they keep dropping rumors and stuff
23:10
like that that means other people are probably going to do it too and competition in the electric vehicle
23:14
space is good yeah I'm super stoked on that I'd love to drive an EV yeah that
23:19
would be fantastic because gas prices where we live are dumb yeah not as bad
23:24
as Europe mind you but still dumb yes
23:27
all right so let's go ahead and this was
23:31
originally posted on the Forum by top of War gamer still trouble at CCH this was
23:37
actually a few days ago it's not really like news news but there hasn't been
23:40
anything else that's come out in the last couple of days so I checked it out
23:45
um or at least today and Oh you mean about this yeah about this so basically
23:50
um there were rumors that CCH was on the brink of bankruptcy and then they came
23:55
out and were like no no that's not happening at all at all we're just not
23:59
playing our employees yeah but there are
24:02
multiple internal sources coming out saying they haven't been paid properly
24:05
since April and apparently um an
24:09
estimated what was it something like a hundred staff yeah the studio estimates
24:14
that around a hundred people have left after filing grievances a person
24:19
familiar with the studio yes person sorry sorry sorry person familiar with
24:22
the studio uh that about 100 people have left after filing grievances it's
24:27
unclear if they leaving permanently if they're just kind of waiting for krych
24:32
to get their stuff together apparently it's gone as far as employees at krych
24:37
UK are like publicly hoping that deep
24:40
silver buys them so like I think this
24:43
has kind of been going around for a while it's just been under a cap which
24:47
is kind of sketchy cats out of the bag I mean you can't imagine the Xbox One
24:51
launch sales were that amazing especially when rise got slammed by like
24:55
every reviewer ever yeah it really wasn't reviewed very well and then they
24:59
just launched their uh what's this thing what's this game called kex new game War
25:08
something yeah they just launched a freeo playay game I can't even remember
25:11
nobody cared I hadn't even heard of it
25:14
until they just launched it I thought it was Warface but I was like that name
25:18
seems so generic it can't be that yeah
25:21
so War Warface is out um it's on Steam
25:26
yeah yeah no like no no one no one cares
25:30
I thought it was a console thing at all so it's a free to play/ pay to win type
25:34
game oh that's why I haven't heard of it and didn't care that makes sense oh God
25:39
that yeah so so that's that's I mean that's where they're at I mean they
25:42
don't charge much to license their engine and that's something that a lot
25:45
of gamers are concerned about what happens to games that rely on cry engine
25:50
right now I mean is the is the engine going to get ongoing support how's this going to work I mean has krych just
25:55
overstretched their bounds they have what nine Studios now nine locations and
26:00
you're kind of looking at it going well how many games do you actually make like
26:04
what do people do all day krych yeah krych UK closing down isn't going to
26:09
close down the whole of cry no but if
26:12
they can't pay krych UK then that is
26:15
kind of an issue yeah you're right um but I don't know I'm not super worried
26:19
about their engine at this point but then again at the same point in time big
26:23
people like Star seon are just chopping the crap out of the engine anyways so it
26:27
probably won't even matter right because at this point in time I'm sure whatever
26:32
they're working with is so far away from the original design that any updates to
26:37
it they'd probably have to pretty much do themselves anyways so I don't know
26:42
but then smaller Studios that would want to use cryex engine because it is
26:45
beautiful and is actually pushing limits on PC Hardware unlike a lot of different
26:49
engines might have issues because they would have to rely much more heavily I
26:52
mean I think that's the thing that I'll both miss about the most and uh regret
26:57
that they didn't stick to is the fact that they were willing to push the PC
27:02
Beyond its limits and build something that was truly groundbreaking I mean the
27:06
the thing about that though is the last time they did that was a really long
27:11
time ago yes so you kind of look at it and you go okay well how bad do I feel
27:15
for you because you became a big deal
27:19
when you released Far Cry and crisis back to back you were this upstart that
27:24
came out of nowhere and released Far Cry the what was L the first at the time
27:30
what we were calling nextg FPS so it was Far Cry Doom 3 and halflife 2 and Far
27:36
Cry was never even on the list until it came out and people were like what what
27:42
where did this come from literally nowhere like what and it looked as good
27:47
or better than those other games like it was they were in the same class and then
27:52
they released crisis and then crisis 2
27:55
was kind of that but like not as much and then prist is whatever anyway um so
28:01
they got away from their Roots which was building really demanding open style
28:06
games and they got kind of syy about it and then now they did like a super syy
28:12
you know Roman game as a console exclusive and you're just kind of
28:15
sitting here going okay well I'm sorry you're in trouble but not making the
28:20
wrong the Right Moves dog I don't know like they were all they were all butt
28:23
hurt about piracy of Crisis and so they were like okay well um you know know
28:28
we're not going to do PC exclusives anymore and then except that's what made
28:33
your company big so apparently in spite of the piracy you were doing fine and
28:37
now you're not so I I'm not I think a lot of people interpret pirate numbers
28:41
very incorrectly you can't just be like look at all that potential money that we
28:45
didn't get we're going to write that down as a loss that's not how that works
28:49
man that is not how that works a lot of those people would have never even
28:53
thought of possibly buying that game in the first place and then honestly a not
28:57
tiny percentage of those people would have played it thought it was cool and then bought it I know people that do
29:03
that I know people that do that too but I also know people that don't do that I
29:06
do as well I know both sides I'm just saying that those people do exist
29:12
they're not a huge percentage but they do exist I think that the I think that
29:16
the number of those people who think they exist versus the number of those
29:20
people that actually exist is I know a
29:24
lot of people that also claim to be in that group and then finish the game and just go like
29:29
oops guess I'm done already like no yeah
29:33
that's not how that works people are saying I pired it and then bought it and
29:36
I'm like yeah that's fine you did and
29:40
like pirating it on day one and then buying it when it's $2 on a steam sale
29:44
two years later it's not the
29:48
same it's like not the same at all H you
29:52
know what funny actually after last week's W show when I said all that
29:56
unpopular stuff about how Pirates are wrong the comments were hilarious cuz
30:00
people are like well there's no demo so what can we do and I on on Twitter I'm
30:06
like well just don't play and they're like well we're Gamers we can't not play
30:11
I'm like what are you talking about if
30:14
you don't buy if if everyone just stops buying Call of Duty 18 there will be
30:19
demos there will be a demo they will need to sell it there will be a free
30:23
weekend there will be this there will be that it'll happen if you all just refuse
30:28
to buy it and don't play it yeah and
30:33
lots of games still do have demos and honestly demo those games and then buy
30:38
them demo those games and then buy them steam actually has a pretty aggressive
30:41
demo availability which is pretty nice I know when Child of Light came out yeah
30:46
really interesting looking game I was like wow it's kind of expensive though
30:49
and I don't really know anything about it oh there's a demo it's like full
30:52
access to the game or something for three days I was like oh sweet that's
30:56
cool awesome and I mean the other thing too is like and the people saying
31:00
because I I think I made some analogy I was like well I'm a scuba diver but I
31:03
haven't been in a few years and people are like well then you're not a scuba diver you're someone who knows how to
31:07
scuba dive you know for me to be a gamer I have to I have to play the games and
31:11
I'm just kind of sitting here going well actually I disagree with that because it
31:15
makes Gamers sound like pathetic addicts
31:18
not like people who are making a conscious decision about how how they want to live their lives and I don't
31:22
think that's fair I like to give Gamers a little bit more respect than the
31:26
latest AAA battle battle field comes out they have to play it they not a gamer
31:30
have to play it or they're not a gamer I know a lot of Gamers that uh like I I
31:35
find especially in the blizzard Community especially but then also with
31:38
games like uh like Counterstrike there will be guys that like they're like oh
31:43
do you want to play a game and I'll be like yeah sure this mainly happens to my
31:46
brother not me but they'll be like oh oh do you want to play a game yeah sure oh
31:49
okay oh I don't I don't see you on Starcraft it's like yeah yeah do you
31:53
want to play something else they're like no I don't have any other games I only play Starcraft there's still a gamer I
31:58
see that with Counterstrike I see that with a lot of the competitive style games they like only be into that one
32:05
that's fine that doesn't mean they're not a gamer yeah all right so this is
32:10
exciting 25 gigabit and 50 gigabit
32:14
Ethernet standards uh being worked on so
32:17
a Consortium has been formed which um actually has some pretty big names so I
32:22
would expect this to go somewhere Microsoft Google uh broadcom kind of a
32:27
big deal yeah so this is this is probably going to happen but basically
32:31
the objective here is this is this is not going to make its way to your
32:34
desktop anytime soon no uh like probably
32:38
eventually but not not not not not now yeah not for a long time I mean look how
32:42
long we've been stuck with gigabit oh God we haven't even moved to 10 gigabit
32:46
so there's that but this is basically
32:49
going to be for as a as a tweener cuz
32:52
right now we've got 100 GB let me ask you this and why is it that you know you
32:57
show someone a photo what the heck FP to
33:00
see what's next I don't want any foam flippers flipping through all my
33:04
pictures where did business tweak Town
33:08
yeah tweak toown yeah I had a tweak Town article open on the computer there yeah
33:12
know tweak Town's like the worse for that out of nowhere yeah oh I never have
33:16
sound on on my computer it never bothers me twe Town always does that never leave
33:20
tweak town at at tabs open it's like the one site where it's like oh God anyway
33:25
this is supposed to exist as a tweener between the 100 GB gear that like super
33:30
high-end Enterprise stuff and then the 10 GB gear which is that also high-end
33:34
but not as completely Balls to the walls uh 10 G what was that ad oh I don't know
33:39
what it was oh anyway um I think that's
33:44
pretty much all there is to say about that it's not exactly the most complic
33:47
if you have some other stuff that you want to talk about then great not really it's it's exciting uh it's it's more
33:52
looking for like server backend and linking things together within data
33:56
centers and stuff like that so it's not really like home stuff but so your
33:59
Dropbox might go faster probably not
34:03
probably not though but yeah nothing that you guys will probably actually or
34:06
us well we'll probably actually feel the effects of really but it'll improve
34:10
efficiency prices will go down in the long term for cloud-based Solutions blah
34:14
blah blah blah blah all that stuff but in the in the short term not a whole lot
34:17
and we're not expecting any kind of Technology based on these standards to
34:21
hit anytime in the next year to a year and a half anyway so it's it's
34:25
interesting that uh the the plans to create this
34:28
start were stalled at a meeting last March due to perceived lack of support
34:32
then Google Microsoft and broadcom were like
34:35
nope time to do it yeah we actually need
34:38
this yo yeah it's cool that they're doing that I like it a lot okay so this
34:43
is this is this is actually pretty crappy have you been to Linux live
34:47
Journal lately yeah exactly I have all
34:50
right so here's an open letter from the Electronic Frontier Foundation dear NSA
34:56
privacy is a fundament Al right and you
35:00
know what this is I mean every time every time we talk
35:06
about the NSA they're crossing a new line but basically what the NSA has been
35:10
found to be doing this time is they're actually adding fingerprints to your
35:16
online activities so even though you might be using tour browser so it's
35:21
difficult to track exactly what you're looking at and exactly what you're doing
35:25
online what they're doing is they're
35:28
putting together the puzzle pieces of
35:31
the people who are accessing things like tour browser and then they're building
35:36
profiles of these people and turning them into sort of I don't want to say
35:42
flagged because it's not quite that extreme but they're turning these into
35:45
profiles for these individuals that could put you under more scrutiny if you
35:49
are attempting to maintain your
35:52
privacy it's just like will this arms race never end no probably not
35:58
I know what I find interesting is I've seen a whole bunch of like not to slam
36:02
America but I'm about to slam America a little bit um to America they're much
36:06
bigger than us I'm partially American I know that's gross can I slam myself I'm
36:11
just teasing you um okay actually so so
36:15
Luke is legitimately half American if you wanted to calculate it that way so
36:19
go ahead and do your American your mom's American yeah but I'm technically fully
36:23
American I'm just also fully Canadian you can't be fully American and fully
36:27
Canadian citzenship in both countries dual citizenship is half citizenship man
36:32
what yeah you're half Canadian I'm sorry no that's not how that works you know
36:36
what's funny is in Canada you're right that's not how it works you're
36:40
completely right in America but no no no in America it's not really actually they
36:44
do make you they do make you be fully American when you uh so anyway that that
36:48
actually is kind of how it works um in a lot of parts of the world though the way
36:52
that people view your your nationality actually has a lot more to do with your
36:57
lineage and a l to you're and you're
37:01
calling you half Amic to our European viewers where
37:06
you're half Irish even if your dad and
37:11
mom spent their entire lives in France if they're of Irish descent you're half
37:15
Irish even though you've never set foot in Ireland yeah like i' I I've heard
37:18
that reference too but only when people are specifically talking about so you're
37:21
half American whatever man for for I mean this is good in this case because
37:26
you're about to say something I can slam myself a little bit um the 4th of July
37:31
what about it I see tons of people celebrating and they're like yeah the
37:35
meaning of being American is like you stand up for what you think is right to
37:39
no matter what the odds no matter what's against you blah blah blah because because America even if it's like
37:44
against your government whatever whatever you do it for yourself you do blah blah blah blah blah and they're all
37:48
like yeah we're awesome and I'm like yeah that's cool America you're not cool
37:51
America right now you're
37:54
not like it's just nope and it's not
37:58
it's not any individual's fault I don't think it's just things are kind of
38:02
crappy down there okay so the really the really horrible thing about this whole
38:06
latest NSA thing is not only are they looking at people who are using tour
38:12
browser they are looking apparently Linux Journal is one of the Publications
38:18
that is getting you fingerprinted really Linux Journal just
38:23
because someone has a passion for open-source
38:27
operating system kernels does that
38:31
really mean that to like to play completely Devil's Advocate because I
38:35
think it's completely bull crap but um they do talk about stuff like tour and
38:40
stuff like uh what are they called Tails
38:44
a lot sure okay so so tails is an operating system that basically leaves
38:48
no trace on the computer that you had you were running it on so you can run it
38:52
on an SD card or a USB drive or even a live CD um and you know yes these
38:59
Technologies tour and tales do exist for the purpose of hiding your tracks and
39:03
yes Linux Journal does talk about these things but that doesn't make them an
39:07
extremist Forum no and that's insane
39:12
it's completely insane I can't even Devil's Advocate that because that's ridiculous so you know what I want to do
39:17
a Twitter Blitz right now it looks like they are now because there's stuff on their front page like are you an
39:21
extremist and all the kind of stuff well they're joking about it right I know but
39:24
like if if you had no prior knowledge it would look like they might be now but so
39:28
here's here's what uh here's what I kind of want to do just for for the laws guys
39:34
I want you guys to Twitter Blitz us
39:37
examples of no not straw pole okay U I want to Twitter Blitz this so I want you
39:41
guys to Twitter Blitz us examples of you
39:44
know privacy that you think people should have that they're not allowed to
39:49
have like the ability to browse websites without people going through their
39:53
internet history and privacy that people
39:56
have that you don't think they should have I mean hot button topics like this
40:01
include things like uh gun ownership registry for example so I just want to
40:06
hear you guys' opinions we're not going to be like okay yeah you're right you're
40:10
wrong but the thing about privacy is that there are there are places you have
40:15
to draw the line like for example okay so let's say anonymity on the internet
40:18
should you be allowed to be on Anonymous in certain
40:22
places for example you can walk around on the street with sunglasses you walk
40:26
into a bank with sunglasses and your hat pulled down to here that's a
40:32
problem just think about it just think
40:35
about it for a second are not the same at all which are not the same at all the
40:39
bank and the internet it doesn't matter I'm well I'm not talking about just the
40:43
internet in the bank I'm they're like wildly different yeah I know that's the
40:46
whole point people are supposed to just tweet things okay okay so like for
40:50
example you are allowed to draw the shades over your house but if you were
40:55
to set up a 25t high wall around your property that would raise eyebrows you
41:00
know you got building code or whatever else but basically you're not going to be allowed to do that more a problem for
41:04
other reasons but yeah so we have like
41:07
at my parents house where I grew up we had these giant freaking trees no one
41:12
cared they lot more than 25 ft and I mean things like okay like things that I
41:17
don't think should necessarily be allowed um extremely dangerous animals
41:22
that aren't correctly contained I mean people would argue well that's my
41:26
privacy that's my security I'm protecting my privacy but you know you
41:30
see enough stories in the news about these dogs getting out mauling children
41:34
that it becomes a problem yeah what dog what do you mean what dogs Bulldogs
41:37
Doberman extremely danger
41:40
yeah I completely disagree on that so you disagree so having a dangerous
41:45
animal I mean when I say dangerous animal I don't mean a breed you said dog
41:49
though yeah a dog is an example of an animal that can be dangerous if you
41:53
train it to be dangerous okay yeah having a dog isn't the objection here
41:58
the objection is fortifying your house so for example where I used to live we
42:01
had a drug dealer family living across the road yeah their animals were
42:05
freaking dangerous they were dangerous so so
42:09
training a dog because they're a dog do dangerous then yeah so the point how do
42:15
you measure that that's not the point the point is just guys what do you think
42:19
is right what do you think is wrong because there are things that I don't think people should be able to do in
42:23
this for the sake of privacy I think putting a motor around your house and
42:27
putting like starving dogs between the moat and your front door is dangerous
42:32
and wrong even if it's in the for the sake of your own privacy I think you're
42:35
allowed to put a motor on your house if you want you're probably not actually I
42:39
think it depends where you live call before you dig bc1 call yeah no I know
42:43
but like if you can I think if you don't hit something you'd technically be
42:46
allowed I don't think you can put a motor around your house really I'm fair
42:50
if you had like a giant Farm property and your house was in the middle of the
42:53
property you couldn't moat your house why not I just I just don't think you
42:58
can you can you okay in Suburbia you definitely can't no I'm I can't even
43:04
paint my house a certain color that's so
43:07
dumb yeah that that's that's how it works I hate that we wouldn't even like
43:12
here we wouldn't even have enough room to cut a motor around well yeah all
43:17
right not even possible um spam Jazz says I think the rules of the real world
43:21
should be applied to the internet it should be treated as a
43:25
place Igor figures if if it affects if it affects someone else then privacy is
43:31
not protected if it's a personal preference or something like that then
43:34
basically do whatever you want I mean an example of that is the fact that you're
43:38
not allowed to tint your windshield here in BC someone could say well for the
43:42
sake of my privacy I want my entire car tinted completely black you you can do
43:46
the back I think you can do the back very dark but not black there are still
43:50
regulations and and the the reason for that is that pedestrians need to be able
43:54
to see where the driver's looking so it's one of those things where where is
43:57
the line because there are places where I don't think you just plain old have
44:01
the right to not be seen or heard by anyone like for example not being able
44:05
to tint your windshield I'm sorry you just can't do that because it's dangerous for others but that's like
44:09
that's like in public you can you can tint the Windows on your house you can
44:13
put blackout on the Windows in your house I wonder if you could in certain
44:17
again you can't even paint your house certain colors I wonder if you're but you could black out blind your house you
44:21
could up blind your house well not technically the same thing but like close enough but then again and oh this
44:27
is interesting if you were to blackout blind your house put a 25t tall fence
44:32
around it put video surveillance cameras around it would you then be surprised if
44:38
the cops took an interest in your house is the NSA any different for taking an
44:44
interest in people who go to Great Lengths to protect their privacy than
44:48
the traditional law enfor are allowed to take as much interest as they want they
44:51
can't enter your house without without a warrant yes but the NSA is not
44:55
necessarily entering your house if they're yes they are because they're intercepting your traffic so hold on a
45:00
second so how would they take an interest without intercepting your
45:06
traffic without in without infringing on your rights in the first place see
45:10
that's why this is also very interesting but screw them who cares put my name on
45:14
a list and then do nothing with it because you suck back
45:18
off all right so Caleb says I believe that sites don't have the right to mine
45:23
data from users to sell for a profit not really the topic we're talking about
45:26
yeah not at all and they kind of do yeah
45:30
um okay and in fact if you read the terms of service of the sites that you
45:35
use it's very likely that they tell you that they use your data for whatever
45:39
they want that's like the Facebook thing that happened with the social experiment and then Facebook was like well in the
45:44
terms of agreement it literally says you're going to take part in this so so
45:48
there you go you should be able to look at whatever sites you want just not what
45:51
they want you to look at but to a point I mean I think something that was really
45:56
that was something that the article brought up that was yet another facet of
46:00
this just the point of this whole conversation is just think about it guys
46:04
I'm not nothing I say is necessarily me being like yes the NSA is right or this
46:09
is wrong or this is right or whatever else the point is just to think about it
46:12
because think about the people who might legitimately need the Privacy that
46:17
something like tals affords them people who are not in America even where they
46:22
have relative freedom and at least the police mostly can't just shoot them um
46:28
you know where where they're trying to fight against a truly oppressive
46:31
government and now all of a sudden the NSA is collecting this data sharing it
46:35
with who knows who and now that could put them in danger just because they're
46:40
trying to protect their privacy that they legitimately needed to protect yeah
46:43
um so you need to be able look at whatever say okay you need to rephrase
46:47
the dog sentence a bit better I think we handled that the point is dangerous dogs
46:51
I'm not saying that a particular breed is dangerous I'm saying a particular dog
46:56
should be dangerous yeah and that's and that is true and you can usually tell
47:00
it's usually fairly obvious which ones have been told that strangers are bad
47:05
yeah not always but you're you're right they'll have uh especially if you're
47:08
trained in being able to look for those things they'll be like body language
47:12
dogs don't really hide body language no they don't anonymity should be everywhere on
47:17
the web it's like saying you can't blend into a crowd which is another really
47:21
interesting point that the article raises and that's that the best thing
47:24
that we can all do if we don't want to
47:28
stand out as someone who uses T is we should just all use T because if you by
47:34
tracking everyone you track no one or by
47:37
singling out everyone you single out no one there you go whatever I was like
47:42
wait a second well by tracking everyone I guess what I meant is one of those
47:45
individuals is not as easily or as accurately tracked yeah yeah exactly in
47:51
Europe the policy about using credit cards for transactions
47:57
what okay should be allowed to control what companies can and cannot view your
48:01
data yeah we're not talking about companies though we're talking about the NSA they not really a
48:06
company why does slick have a phase logo on his shirt we'll cover that later yeah
48:10
I talked to that yeah we're we're on this and I told him the exact same thing
48:14
you'll find out later I don't want the government taking
48:18
my phone without a warrant oh right so people are just giving a couple examples
48:22
of of things y yeah that's something that I think that's becoming a thing
48:26
isn't it yeah that's that's becoming a bit of a problem and uh like I mean even
48:30
even going back uh a number of years ago
48:33
people were having laptops seized at the border to check for pirated software so
48:38
like that's been a thing for a while and is totally over the line in from my
48:42
perspective yeah um it's my laptop man
48:45
privacy question up to the property owner says so whoever owns the property
48:49
should be able to just do whatever they want there while using the internet
48:52
we're totally free but like in real life everyone should set limits for internet
48:57
use I think Twitter is not a great uh
49:00
medium for this because I just mostly don't understand understand things
49:05
actually Christopher Rivera you know what we'll use this as a transition into
49:09
our next topic here this is this is
49:14
interesting where did that one go I don't know a lot of them got dumped in
49:18
Rapid Fire so check there okay what are you looking for the anonymity I'm
49:23
looking for the right to be forgotten yeah this is interesting so
49:27
in Europe right now let's just go ahead and switch over to my screen
49:31
here um so the the eu's right to be
49:35
forgotten so there are some Guardian articles that have been hidden by Google
49:40
so the guardian is a uk- based publication and basically what you are
49:45
allowed to do now over there is you are allowed to have the right to not be
49:52
searchable so you can actually request
49:55
that Google no longer return search results for a particular
49:59
thing so an example of this might be you know someone who had a run in with the
50:04
police or whatever else they weren't a minor so their name and their face and
50:09
everything was published in articles they can't make the guardian remove
50:13
their article but they can request that
50:16
Google no longer return search results linking to that article so you have
50:21
someone who's like the the newspaper collector you could have that site
50:26
stored some you could have that URL stored somewhere and that's not going to
50:29
necessarily go away but it's not going to be like easily researchable anymore
50:32
so that actually seems to raise a whole
50:36
other set of problems because I can see reasons why this should exist you know
50:41
you don't want I mean you don't want your employability affected by some
50:45
stupid parking ticket you got when you were 19 or if someone makes an
50:48
accusation against you which ends up being completely false but all those
50:53
articles from before the verdict exist and no one ever updates that stuff I
50:58
mean I can see that being the kind of thing that really should be should be
51:03
removed that's a huge problem but on the other hand if let's say your U let's say
51:09
you're a politician Who's involved in scandal after scandal after Scandal and
51:13
your local constituents can't search for information about it because you just go
51:20
okay well I don't want to be searchable and that's probably an extreme example
51:23
like let's say not a politician let's say not a politician let's say uh you
51:27
know an executive within a company instead where the other the board of
51:32
directors might want to you know have a look at what kind of guy is this I mean
51:36
searching for people on the internet whether whatever you like about it or
51:40
dislike about it then again Google's just easy you most of these websites
51:44
like uh oh that's a Google custom search not a good example yeah so the Guardians
51:49
the Guardians on-site search is actually powered by Google I wonder oh okay we're
51:53
we're in the way I wonder how long that's going to last for yeah but yeah
51:57
but like a lot of these sites are going to have their own search functionality so if if you try it a little bit harder
52:03
you could probably still figure it out and especially in situations where it's a politician yeah someone's probably
52:08
going to try and run slander campaigns against them anyway so they'll hire a
52:11
investigator or they'll just go to these websites themselves it's not but what
52:16
it's doing is it's making the information less accessible to the average person yes definitely but then
52:21
the flip side of that is should my employability be affected by you know
52:26
here here's an example should my employability be affected by a
52:32
DUI I you could dance all day on that
52:35
topic yeah I don't know I don't drink so I can
52:40
easily just be like yep but then I don't know if that's I don't drink either so I
52:44
could easily just be like you know yeah people who get behind the wheel drunk
52:48
are bad people but the reality of it is
52:51
sometimes good people make bad decisions and and sometimes there's going to be a
52:54
flag that was raised that that maybe shouldn't have like I what is it I know
52:58
with steroids if you eat too many sesame seeds you can get brought up on a
53:02
steroid test yeah I think something nailed down figuring out how drunk
53:06
people are but I see your point I have zero experience with getting
53:10
breathalyzers or anything Ian if you if you if you eat a lot of poppy seed
53:13
muffins you can show up positive for opium as an example um yeah so so yes
53:20
there are things that could be problems here but uh you know I mean there's a
53:25
lot of debate going on in the twitch chat right now people deserve a second
53:29
chance people are basically bad and we should document the bad things they do
53:33
forever um I mean it's it's one of those things that never existed before so we
53:39
have to find new ways to address it I mean it used to be that you know an old
53:44
newspaper clipping or like going and looking at micro fishes in the library
53:50
that was how you that was how you like found old news that otherwise basically
53:54
didn't exist but the internet that's been around long enough now that you can
53:59
find a pretty detailed history on a lot of people there's a paper trail yeah
54:02
that exists digitally that will never go away especially if people are bad with
54:06
their Facebook privacy even even websites that are gone you know you can
54:10
run around on way back machine way back machine internet archives yeah I mean I
54:15
found some poem I wrote because someone quoted it in a reply to someone else on
54:19
a forum somewhere it was a poem about the EVGA 680i motherboard so I think
54:24
I've actually read that it was applicable but like I'm like nothing's
54:28
ever gone so I don't know man it's interesting
54:33
those are those are I think way deeper topics than like the W show should
54:37
necessarily be yeah I know why don't we just do something lighthearted here so
54:42
uh this is this is fun uh Z what however
54:47
that's pronounced um PC Master race problems man tried running halflife 2 at
54:52
8K some games just are not designed for that
54:57
the text is so small in the menu cannot
55:00
read the menu I was talking to people in team speak about this and they're like
55:03
oh my God I can't believe he's so serious about this BL BL I'm pretty sure he's sarcastic I'm pretty sure that
55:09
we're just we're just having some fun with this topic it looks pretty cool
55:12
though eh like not including the text did you look at the second one where
55:16
it's just like the landscape other than the sign in the crappy grass like it
55:20
actually looks pretty all right increasing the resolution of a game does
55:23
a lot resolution is more than just a number I think we can all agree on that
55:28
oh Ubie I'm slamming you so hard in a
55:31
video that's coming soon oh I know I
55:35
know you were brutal I was listening was pretty that was pretty aggressive all
55:39
right so on to more lighthearted uh lighthearted PC Master race news uh
55:44
Naughty Dog developer says Last of Us 1080p at 60 FPS is a quote
55:50
transformative experience this was posted on the Forum by Tiger Bomb 8 and
55:55
it is pretty hilarious just slamming everyone this
55:59
was great original articles on kit Guru want to give us the summary you pretty
56:04
much already did it there's honestly not a ton more to say uh Last of Us
56:08
remastered co-director Bruce Stanley also jumped in by saying I had a dream
56:11
in 6fps last night # tlou remastered and
56:15
a guy uh Neil dman then replied saying
56:19
what if I told you that was no dream hash believe which I think hashtag
56:22
believe was already a thing for Halo but either way um that's that's cool and
56:27
that's coming and I think that's a really interesting contrast to one that
56:31
I think is in Rapid Fire which is where what is it drive Club Drive Club is 30
56:36
FPS and they're like yeah it's cool man
56:40
other games are doing it too right don't slam us too hard they're like directly
56:45
where is it I'm going to try and find the quote got it
56:48
um so this was posted by roit kamart
56:54
seriously I should just start changing people on the forum's names when I can't
56:58
pronounce them so this is from Kaku Drive Club is
57:02
30 FPS for the same reason other games are says director so quote unquote I I
57:08
suspect a lot of people uh think we may have compromised the gameplay experience
57:12
by choosing 30 FPS yeah you think um but
57:15
we've spent a huge amount of time minimizing the latency between the pad
57:19
and what happens inside the game so you never feel disconnected no well they may have a
57:26
point I mean play ARMA 2 and let's talk
57:30
about laggy engines like I would rather
57:33
play at 30 FPS on Source engine than at
57:37
60 FPS on ARMA 2 you know yeah like 100%
57:41
but they don't have that many comparisons you can't compare every single game to ARMA 2 you have yes I can
57:47
but don't because that game is dumb sorry but it is he is super
57:53
broken like super broken I honestly I
57:57
wanted to play it because I was like oh yeah it like pushes graphics on the PC
58:02
I'm going to play this game and I was like doing the training thing and I was
58:05
just like did you make it past training no no I didn't
58:09
either I don't remember where I quit but
58:12
I got to like some point then I got super frustrated and then I like was
58:16
like oh I wonder if I can shoot the guy beside me and I shot him and it worked
58:19
and I got put in jail and I was like screw this
58:23
game I couldn't figure out how to get out of jail I was like this is so dumb
58:27
your game is just way too broken it's
58:30
like realism s simulator you're now in jail for 10 years well I don't want to
58:34
play your game whatever man it's like realism
58:38
simulator I'm going to ask for a refund let's see how real that is and then I'm
58:43
not going to get it nope reality of buying
58:47
games yeah yeah that sucked oh I was actually
58:52
super excited and then I got put in jail and then I never played here's kind of
58:56
an amusing article from the inquire apparently Windows 2000 gained more
59:01
market share in June than Windows 8 now the inquire is known for hating on
59:06
Microsoft and they're known for sensationalist headlines and they're
59:10
also known for a lot of things and sort
59:13
of the most accurate news reporting isn't one of them but this was just a
59:17
pretty amusing article basically looking at operating system market share where
59:21
Windows XP continues to hold a quarter of the market with Windows 7 holding
59:25
about half of the market overall and then everything else splitting that
59:29
remaining 25% with Windows Vista coming in at
59:33
something like a rock and couple percent and Windows 8 holding
59:39
only this is very odd they article was
59:42
written very oddly 6.61% which
59:47
is kind of terrible actually it's not a
59:51
lot I mean hoping for that Windows 9 that's why I was so excited by the
59:54
Windows 9 announcement thing cuz I was like I when when Windows 8 was announced
60:00
I was like I'm probably never going to use this and that's okay I use it but I
60:06
I intentionally avoid as much of the and you use it because it's like
60:09
pre-installed on the stuff that you use it on you use it cuz you're lazy and
60:13
that's fine but like I've never seen you go out
60:18
of your way to install
60:22
it not once ever no not once we're both
60:26
running it right now on our laptops
60:29
because you know
60:33
what yeah that thing that he never uses
60:36
yeah because you click the thing that says desktop every time I know two hot
60:41
keys on the uh on the computer that like are helpful for managing Windows 8 the
60:46
Windows key for opening modern UI and ALT tab for getting back out of
60:52
it because because oops you press that button and then wait I got to get back
60:56
to my stuff my actually useful the thing that only I mean it's not that bad the
61:01
only thing that really drives me crazy about it that just makes me want to put
61:04
my fist through the screen is on a new install trying to open an MP3 or like a
61:11
video file and then permissions permissions things I I find to be a big
61:14
issue H at least it's it's actually easier to disable than it was on Vista
61:19
and 7 it just has a prompt that's like Boop do you want to get rid of UAC do no
61:23
not even just UAC oh like trying to do any deep rooted stuff is like really
61:28
annoying oh okay fair enough like really really annoying I don't know I I've I've
61:33
just found everything that I try to do on Windows 8 or 8.1 I just find it's
61:38
extremely taxing when it really didn't need yeah actually there there's another
61:42
example except for stuff like file transfers which are absolutely freaking
61:46
fantastic and have almost brought me to Windows 8 multiple times yeah that's
61:51
really good I mean there there are a few things that drive me kind of crazy
61:55
fantastic like user okay so user accounts okay if I'm like yeah I got my
62:00
user accounts here I want to like um I
62:04
want to change something about it I can change my account type I can manage
62:09
another account and I can change UAC settings other than that if I'm like oh
62:13
no sorry wrong thing if I'm like yeah I want to make change
62:17
oh
62:21
really why and then the flip side of
62:24
that is when you're in modern UI and you try to do certain things it just drops
62:28
you out of it for that and I'm just like a really it just can't decide what it is
62:34
it's broken and maybe Windows 9 will be better but
62:40
honestly it runs games a little bit faster but my computer's kind of Beast
62:44
and most games are crappy console ports anyways people are saying after you
62:47
learn all the hot Keys it's very usable nope
62:50
um okay after you learn all the hot Keys Adobe Premiere is very usable that
62:56
doesn't make it intuitive and that doesn't make it a well-designed UI it
63:01
just makes it usable when you're an expert I mean you could say that about
63:05
anything you know mixing cocktails is easy all the buttons are in a spaceship
63:09
it becomes pretty awesome memorize every combination and you know get really good
63:15
at doing it and then it's easy it's like yeah okay hooray Daws and Linux yeah
63:20
Doss is easy if you it's super easy you can probably do
63:24
things faster than Doss than you can't Windows if you know all everything yeah there are certain things that I can do
63:28
faster at a command prompt y yep um so
63:31
speaking of which Good Bites has uh has a post here about Windows 9 preview
63:36
expected for the end of the year so thank you for posting that and uh I
63:40
don't know anything to say uh not a ton more than what we've already said
63:44
they've said many times that they're going to be trying to cater more to the
63:49
um Windows threshold desktop experience kind of thingy Mig going on which is
63:53
fantastic that's awesome good to hear who knows if they'll actually do it
63:57
hello Microsoft we're going to support PC gaming um so who knows they've also
64:02
talked more about stuff like this and the yoga where it should it should
64:07
support better transfer between when you flip your screen it'll automatically
64:11
switch to something like Metro mhm should support better of doing thatness
64:17
whatever that even means I don't know a lot of it seems like they're talking
64:20
over to their butt they heard a lot of people complaining that they ditched the Windows 7 user desktop experience thing
64:25
and now they're trying to be like yeah we're bringing it back but it's
64:29
Microsoft so who freaking knows they better because this is the second one
64:33
they they they they jumped once and then it was bad so they have to fix everything and jump again and then the
64:38
one Windows 10 or whatever it's called will probably be terrible again I don't
64:41
know there claims about you know supporting switching between the Metro
64:45
UI and the window style mode based on whether or not a keyboard is connected I
64:49
kind of look at that and I go look I don't know on Surface you guys couldn't
64:53
even figure out whether to use the onscreen key or the connected keyboard
64:57
about 3 to 4% of the time which doesn't
65:00
sound like that big of a deal but every single time that happens but every time
65:03
it happens you're just like really and you couple that with the
65:08
Windows 8's integrated onscreen keyboard is terrible like it's not a tablet
65:13
keyboard at all it's basically unusable
65:16
and you just all the jokes this is kind of a
65:22
ranty discombobulated show isn't it it
65:25
is we're just mad about things cuz it's hot and annoying and there was kids
65:29
screaming outside and we're old okay so good news Microsoft and Canon have uh
65:34
agreed to just kind of use each other's patents and no big deal I would like to
65:39
see so much more of intellectual property sharing between companies where
65:44
they're cooperating to make the technology better for us as opposed to
65:48
just trolling each other and suing each other all day I mean I think that pretty
65:53
bitter Rivals have shown that it's possible in the past guys like apple and
65:58
HTC for example where there was a lot of
66:01
butt hurt there and it was just dragging them both down and they're both just
66:05
like yo okay ceasefire like that one was
66:08
a a relatively short-term deal but let's just let's just not do this anymore um
66:13
and I'm I'm just happy to see it I mean I don't know I don't know necessarily
66:18
what's going to come of this better camera on Surface 4 I guess we could
66:22
hope for I I thought it was kind of weird um we maybe Canon will improve
66:27
their camera software maybe Microsoft's going to make some
66:31
printers like I don't know I I'm not I'm
66:35
not sure we really want Microsoft helping Canon with software but the
66:38
thing about the thing about these companies is that they have a lot of
66:41
patents that go far beyond true printers and cameras and operating systems so who
66:46
knows what's going to go on I mean Canon owns display technology patents and
66:50
stuff like that so who knows but there
66:53
you go ah every time I think about Canon
66:57
displays I wish s had come out it was better then than anything
67:03
that still currently exists and it never
67:08
happened I think it was a patent dispute too I think so I think it was an
67:12
intellectual property thing yeah oh so
67:16
mad um yeah yeah yeah don't worry I hadn't forgotten okay so it's sponsor
67:21
time Squarespace woo I know we talk talk
67:25
about Squarespace a lot but the cold hard truth is Squarespace is pretty
67:29
awesome and for a number of reasons Squarespace is the and this is kind of
67:33
funny because we were talking about how Squarespace is what Linus Medi group.com
67:38
runs on the other day and then um one of
67:41
the one of the sort of Resident buttthe heads on the Forum was all like I
67:47
there's something I'm angry blah blah blah you're always talking about how great Squarespace is and the Forum is
67:52
slow and I got a capture or something
67:55
and I'm just like well the Forum doesn't run on Squarespace
67:59
so yeah um yeah uh so Linus Medi group.com
68:07
runs on Squarespace because it's the fast easy way to create a beautiful
68:11
website that looks great on a phone looks great on a tablet looks great on a
68:14
desktop and is extremely versatile you can have something for your blog for
68:18
your portfolio for your online store and
68:22
the great thing about it is even if you are not yeah people know who it is even
68:27
if you are not uh you know web designer
68:30
even if you're not a graphic designer they make things relatively easy so that
68:35
normal people as long as you got a little bit of computer savvy can figure
68:39
it out mostly on their own and even people who can't figure it out on their
68:42
own can use their 24/7 Tech Support to get some help and uh oh yeah there's
68:48
more Squarespace also is giving away another website so I'm
68:53
like yeah running for websites yeah
68:56
running for running for you don't actually have to run Squarespace should
69:00
have a super long marathon and everyone that finishes it gets a free
69:04
website and then they wait what what I
69:08
don't know you know it's funny because you rip on me for saying stupid stuff
69:13
sometimes when sometimes you just aren't necessarily following what I'm saying
69:18
say some interesting stuff for advertising like they had that guy made
69:21
the song and they had all this other kind of stuff going on if they
69:24
Squarespace Marathon that would get pressed people would talk about it cuz
69:28
it's weird how many website designers could
69:32
run a marathon I could I mean let's let's talk
69:35
let's talk Vin diagrams okay could you run a marathon I run 8K what's the
69:40
what's what's the definition of a a lot more than 8K is there like an actual
69:43
definition of a marathon yes a marathon is a specific thing just like a half
69:47
marathon is half of that specific thing 26 miles I
69:51
quit yeah so let's talk Vin diagrams for
69:54
a minute here we've got people who can run marathon and we've got website
70:00
designers put like fingernail maybe they touch each other
70:05
you know what I want to hear from you guys in the twitch chatter on Twitter
70:08
are you a website designer who can run a
70:11
marathon and if so kudos to you anyway the point is 40 kilometers shy not yeah
70:18
and it changes so 42 more recently oh no
70:22
oh that's older no that's newer um so 1924 is newer than 1896
70:29
19 you were going after me about that privacy topic earlier so I'm taking
70:33
every opportunity from now until the rest of the show um so the point is
70:38
Right Squarespace they're giving away a website all you have to do is tweet with
70:42
# Linus Squarespace sometime in the next
70:46
week and we will show off your website on the show and then one of those lucky
70:52
winners will get a free site for a year
70:55
for those of you who don't win you can visit squarespace.com Linus for a free
70:59
trial it's a two-e trial and you can get 10% off of fuse off of code Linus the
71:04
great thing about the free trial is that you can completely design your website
71:08
decide if you like the service decide if the scalability is going to work for you
71:12
and then you have no obligation to use it
71:16
whatsoever so we've actually got uh I've got another one I've got one to show you
71:20
guys that's from last time we did one of these here we go lineus to screen
71:24
sharing last time we did one of these giveaways I'm just going toop put it on
71:28
the top so this is Pascal Brunner's website evidently I haven't actually
71:32
looked at this one before I just picked out one of them so the idea is that it's
71:36
super easy to build something that is as complicated or as simple as you'd like
71:40
and it should look great perform well and just generally be pleasing for
71:44
people to browse something that you really can't do with WordPress or
71:48
similar Services unless you're willing to put a lot more work into it I happen
71:53
to be using my touchcreen to navigate it right now so you know the kinds of
71:57
compatibility things that you just don't have to really think about and uh look
72:01
at this so we can we can browse his travel blog apparently hasn't filled
72:06
that in maybe uh maybe he's hoping to win uh the website before fleshing it
72:10
out a little bit more but the point is that it works and it really doesn't take
72:13
that much work for it to work which leads us to our second sponsor of the
72:17
show today FaZe apparently yeah I don't
72:23
I don't know is that symbol I haven't
72:26
seen that it's actually not that he's going to get naked so no one's anyways
72:30
cuz I believe in wearing my w show shirt for the show as much as I
72:36
can it's really similar it's not the
72:39
same yeah it's not the same all right so 54 Club are you a big fan of shopping in
72:46
the mall are you a big fan of clothing
72:50
sales people are you a big fan of what
72:54
else is horrible about shopping for clothes those were like pretty widely
72:59
encompassing are you a fan of you know
73:02
keeping up with the latest fashions is the best thing in the store the
73:06
boyfriend shair yeah I know right because yes it is because yes it is so
73:11
54 Club is basically the way to not have
73:15
to worry about your wardrobe anymore the basic premise behind it is they send you
73:20
at least $150 worth of clothing every
73:23
month and then what you pay is 50 bucks
73:26
a month and what's cool about that is that you don't have to think about
73:31
anything they assign you a personalized stylist who picks stuff out for you so
73:36
you don't do any thinking new clothing arrives once a month you just do a quick
73:40
questionnaire it takes less than a minute which is pretty darn cool and
73:45
then you basically say okay look I like these shoes I like these shirts I like
73:49
these pants and they just completely
73:52
deal with the whole thing for you
73:55
um Luke do you want to show off your 54 Club shirt it's a little tight I think I
74:00
think everyone can think everyone can see it I liked the um more conservative
74:04
oh no we both have pretty conservative design shirts Nick has one that's like
74:08
54 clothing and I I actually like the
74:11
small logo that apparently looks like fa's logo um but yeah I think it's
74:15
pretty cool it's speckled I don't know if the camera can see that very well not
74:20
really but yeah there you go I like v-neck and it's a v-neck so that's
74:24
pretty cool yeah they've got a whole bunch of different stuff you're not really you're
74:28
not really stuck with one you go through that like uh what do you like kind of
74:33
questionnaire when you sign up right yeah and I thought they weren't necessarily uh I thought they were kind
74:37
of pulling my leg when they said it takes less than a minute but it actually took me like 54 seconds or whatever
74:43
something along those lines so I love those surveys that are like this will take like 3 minutes half an hour later
74:47
you're like oh God why is there so much crap um but yeah they put you through
74:52
this little questionnaire survey thing so you don't get stuff you're totally totally not going to want they can
74:56
actually profile you a little bit and then send you things that you will hopefully actually like which is pretty
75:00
cool what are you looking for I'm looking for the numbers cuz I think I
75:04
might have gotten them wrong which is going to be terrible okay for $60 a
75:09
month you get $12 worth of clothing there we go wow that's terrible um so
75:14
basically the thing that's going on right now though is for the 4th of July
75:18
you can use offer code Linus forth for $20 off your first package so you're
75:22
getting an MSRP of $120 worth of clothing for 40 bucks you can cancel it
75:27
any time it's actually super simple to do we had one person on the Forum that
75:31
basically went yeah you know what the quality of the clothing is nice but it's
75:35
doesn't quite work for me I don't want to continue it
75:38
and boom it was done just like that so it was pretty easy to get taken care of
75:42
and I think that is pretty much it so guys we know where they ship to do we
75:45
know where they ship to yeah o people are asking that US and Canada for sure
75:50
yes not 100% sure outside of that so you're going to want to go to bit. lee/
75:54
Linus f C and use offer code lonus forth
75:58
4th in order to redeem your extra amount
76:01
off normally for 54 Club you guys can get $15 off your first purchase so now
76:07
it's just an extra five bucks just so they can give you guys a little incentive to try it out here because if
76:12
you hate clothing shopping anywhere near as much as I do then yeah there's that I
76:17
feel terrible about getting those numbers wrong I'm not necessarily that
76:21
great with numbers and then they went and they changed them around on me today
76:25
and I was like oh okay the 20 corresponds to the discount but then the
76:30
amount that it normally is corresponds to whatever whatever the heck it is um
76:34
the cool thing about it is that aside from I mean if you're into you know
76:38
which celebrities wear it the list is actually kind of ridiculous like if you
76:42
go on their site I get that though I would probably want a mail order thing
76:46
if I was a celebrity person I guess that makes sense yeah I don't know I was just
76:52
like M Mark Wahlberg is the sexiest hunk of man on the face of the Earth and I
76:57
was like he he wears 54 so I was like that's pretty cool isn't he like wasn't
77:02
he convicted or something Mark wellberg really shut up I might be thinking the
77:06
wrong person I don't think
77:12
so you've got to be kidding me yeah huh
77:16
yeah he was like yeah I don't know well he can still
77:20
be sexy even if uh even if he has a bit of a checkered past so new slash lus is
77:25
into Bad Boys yeah I'm not ashamed of
77:30
it all right so that's pretty much it 54 club and let's move on to our next topic
77:35
shall we all right uh so next what we got I think we
77:41
we jumped all over the place new extreme editions are rumored to be coming very
77:44
soon I think calling this a rumor at this point is um it's been rumored to be
77:49
coming at like a fairly specific date for a long time every rumor is like yep
77:54
just don't forget so it's we thought it was this
77:58
time a while ago it's rumored to be uh
78:02
priced at $1,000 just like whoa
78:05
surprising Every Other Extreme Edition ever um but what's exciting about the
78:09
rumors for Haswell e so this is Intel's upcoming Enthusiast slw workstation
78:14
grade processors is that the lower end
78:17
chips even the lowest end one so the 82
78:21
the 5820k allegedly 5820k is going going
78:24
to allegedly rumored be a six core up
78:28
until now processors like the
78:32
4820k have just not made a lot of sense to me like I guess if I only need a quad
78:37
core there's a reason why that one's in the thermal Ben I specifically only need
78:41
a quad core but I really need 64 gigs of
78:45
RAM or more unbuffered memory 64 gigs of un
78:50
sure someone can find a use for that like if I if I but but but I don't need
78:53
a six core that's that's the one I don't understand I'm going to buy all that RAM
78:56
but I don't need the six that baller expensive motherboard mhm and not spend
79:01
the like little bit more so those quad cores on LGA 2011 have always been a bit
79:04
of a a bit of a black sheep to me whereas now we're going to get an 8 Core
79:09
Extreme Edition this is the first time Intel has differentiated an extreme
79:12
Edition based on the number of cores since the 980x so we're going to get an
79:15
8 Core Extreme Edition and then we are going to get a six core step down and
79:21
then a six core hopefully like $350 to $400 range CPU which all of
79:28
this is really exciting hopefully maybe but hopefully maybe possibly um I would
79:34
love being one of the like rumor writers for the the sites that kind of spread
79:38
rumors around especially for Intel stuff like price for the extreme Edition
79:44
$9.99 crazy balls right yeah the other ones are a little more difficult yeah
79:48
because you have to memorize different numbers but uh oh the other thing is
79:54
that theat form will use ddr4 so we could be looking at higher speeds lower
79:58
power consumption higher density cost could be looking at yeah but the cost is
80:03
expected to be extremely high for ddr4
80:06
initially for the adopters I'll be I'll be I mean really the extreme Edition
80:10
might end up being the only one that actually makes any sense yep because
80:14
you're going to get a qu you're going to get a uh an octacore as opposed to a six
80:19
core and you're going to have to pay a premium for it but you're going to get
80:22
an octacore and then you're going to have to pay a premium for that RAM but you're going to get an octacore whereas
80:26
buying older LGA 2011 ivybridge E CPUs
80:30
and DDR3 is probably going to make a lot more sense something like a 4930k where
80:34
you get a six core and DDR3 saving money on both of those because the new ones
80:38
are out because it'll be ddr4 which will hopefully Drive the price of DDR3 down
80:42
because damn what's been happening to that lately uh your factory had problems
80:46
a long time ago Bros bring that price back down um originally posted on the
80:52
Forum by Ewan Ewan you
80:55
in whatever can't see it I give up the
80:59
division might have microtransactions remember remember that
81:03
talk we had about Ubisoft and how they they didn't like DRM they were like yeah
81:08
we're going to remove DRM by not removing DRM this is their
81:12
solution more microtransactions because hopefully you
81:16
can't pirate those you know what I actually I mean
81:20
this was moved into uh rapid fire topics but I I thought it was actually a pretty
81:25
interesting we were more just running out of time to be completely honest oh
81:29
okay that one was a fairly yeah where's that bloody hell what are you looking
81:33
for I'm looking for that EA article where they were basically
81:37
justifying microtransactions saying that uh core Gamers uncomfortable with change
81:42
yeah there it is yeah Peter Moore from EA comes out saying core gamers are
81:46
uncomfortable with change and that's basically the reason that people are are
81:51
upset about the changing landscape which would be Mobile gaming
81:56
microtransactions and like I I see I see
82:00
why people don't like it and he acknowledges why people don't like it and says you know what it's totally fair
82:05
to not like it but he just kind of says well look I think that what we have to
82:10
understand is that that's the way the industry is going and all you have to
82:16
really do is look at companies that are
82:19
just trying to maintain that traditional
82:22
$60 title mindset we're going to sell you a $60
82:27
title and then everything else is just GNA kind of you know we're going to do
82:31
it the old way and Gamers aren't necessarily satisfied when that happens
82:35
I mean I don't know if that's necessarily the truth because it seems like what gamers are very unsatisfied
82:39
about is being hit with both at the same time that's a good point because like
82:44
look at CD project red I don't see anyone complaining about Witcher I don't
82:48
see Witcher having any problems that's true that's a good point and they're
82:52
like the only ones that are actually doing just one attack everyone else is
82:56
like $60 title here's a butt ton of DLC
82:59
also by the way microtransactions on the side it's not fair to say everyone else
83:03
I mean you know there are MMOs that just have a subscription there are which one
83:08
actually a lot of them have microtransactions now okay forget it Eve has microtransactions wow has a
83:12
microtransaction where you can make your character max level um like I actually
83:17
that's quite serious when I said which one the only one I can guess the issue
83:21
with the traditional way with no microtransactions with just paying for
83:25
it up front is that gamers are going to be ultimately unsatisfied when that
83:30
company can't afford to support the multiplayer anymore for example and the
83:34
servers end up getting shut down now the obvious solution to this is they should
83:37
let us run our own servers in the first place
83:42
but I don't know maybe if they just give
83:45
something back my my favorite thing posted on this
83:49
thread was okay this topic is just making me sad my favorite thing posted
83:53
on this thread was that uh what What's the principal in The Simpsons Skinner
83:58
yeah yeah yeah yeah am I out of touch no
84:02
just the people that are wrong it's the children that are wrong it's the children that are wrong it's like
84:06
actually no you're just wrong attacking people on every possible front DLC full
84:11
price game microtransactions and possibly even a subscription is not the
84:15
way to make a happy customer okay he does make a good point about customers
84:20
being willing to give money in this way and therefore as a business if you want
84:25
to survive you have to leverage that that also doesn't need to be all your
84:29
games and that's true it doesn't need to be all your games but you have to look
84:33
at the success of something like Candy Crush Saga and go if lineus media but
84:37
that's one thing like I don't see anyone complaining that mobile games exist I've
84:41
never heard of that complaint I would complain about Candy Crush saga's
84:45
implementation of microtransactions I no I mean mobile games in general oh yeah
84:50
I'm not complaining that they exist I'm just it's it's more of an like his his
84:54
his quotes here are actually pretty good it's more of an observation that this is
84:58
really successful and as much as that
85:01
that old you know that Old Guard core audience of the more hardcore Gamers
85:06
doesn't like it new gamers are being
85:10
brought in onto the gaming scene used to that but you can do it in good ways I
85:15
don't know that many people that complain about the microtransactions in League of Legends that's I never have
85:20
I've found them to be completely fine and I personally know someone who spent like two grand leg Legends and Team
85:25
Fortress 2 is another great example foress 2 fine totally fine Counter
85:29
Strike I've spent an okay amount of money on counter- strike just opening
85:33
freaking cases cuz I'm an idiot it's not like okay amount of money
85:37
is not that much I haven't spent that much usually it's I'll spend what I get
85:41
off of selling the cards okay you know you know how you get the cards you can
85:45
sell the cards no uh I have never I I actually believe I own Team Fortress 2
85:50
items I have never once looked at them I haven't for Team Fortress well I've
85:54
looked at them but I'm just saying I I have I the one time I have while you
85:58
play while you play a lot of games now on Steam you gain these trading card
86:01
things you can sell them for steam bucks and then you can spend that steam money
86:06
buying a key which will open a box which you can then probably sell the item from
86:10
because it's probably not even good it has been proven that it is more
86:16
much more cost effective to just buy the item than to buy the key to open the box
86:20
because the chance of something coming out of that box that is worth anything is so low
86:27
like insanely low people have even made websites that are that are dedicated to
86:31
like capturing the experience of opening the box so you get infinite keys in a
86:34
box and it's a random number generator that'll be like you got this item so it can prove how much you've lost it's like
86:40
yeah it's not worth it even if you wanted to buy like a $60 rifle skin it's
86:44
better to just buy it than open that many
86:48
boxes so basically it's Pokemon cards all over again yeah okay don't don't buy
86:53
the booster pack just buy the damn card but then actually just don't buy either
86:58
and then there you go the best part the coolest sorry the the coolest part I've
87:02
seen is when me and my friends will be playing and someone will accidentally take one of the skins off of one of
87:06
their rifles and they're like whoa it looks cool it's it's like blackout cuz it's
87:13
all black everyone has so many skins that
87:19
once the Skins come off and you just see the blacked out gun it actually looks
87:22
pretty cool I'm like wow you are giving
87:26
me such a headache right
87:29
now doesn't help that it's like insanely hot in this room all right you wanted to
87:33
move on I think this has been our worst show in a long time and yet there are
87:37
4,800 people watching I don't think it's been the worst show you're just sad that
87:41
doesn't mean it's the worst show I guess if they just want to watch
87:46
me be sad and angry and your shirt came off and my
87:50
shirt did come off are you like my shirt
87:54
came off during probably the worst sponsor integration that I've ever done
87:59
it's like you spent the whole time looking for the okay guys here I don't
88:04
do this often but please if you want a
88:08
subscription clothing service please go check out 54 Club because otherwise they
88:13
are going to drop me so hard because that was
88:17
terrible I said some numbers that are wrong so I'm going to buy time and look
88:21
through emails and EV find it I couldn't find
88:25
the email I'm not going to send them this part of the video so they're just
88:30
going to have to be amazed at like how many people signed up for a trial of 54
88:35
Club it really is a good deal with the $20 off deal right now so check it out
88:40
okay it's uh $120 MSRP worth of clothing
88:44
for 40 bucks and if you sign up for 120 MSRP you get the $20 off so it's 40
88:49
bucks so it's 40 bucks you should just try it for one month because otherwise
88:54
I'm going to look terrible whereas if like I do the worst integration ever and
88:58
the results are amazing they're going to be like wow we should probably do more
89:02
of those yeah we should we should like we should like do we should have him screw it up all the time we'll purposely
89:08
give him the wrong numbers now won matter he probably won't remember it's
89:11
okay oh I'm just a bad person I guess okay so this is posted on the Forum by
89:16
symbolizer 21 and the original article from geek.com it's going to be
89:20
approximately 70 bucks and as much as
89:23
this is like kind of cool um I don't
89:26
think it's necessarily very smart this is like it's like a a cooler it's it's
89:33
got 62 fet of heat pipes in it apparently which is just expensive for
89:37
no reason like heat pipes are good for
89:42
carrying heat somewhere they're actually not very good for dissipating it to the
89:47
air a a cylinder is actually very
89:50
efficient from an internal volume to external surface surface area
89:54
perspective not because it has a lot of surface area and very little internal
89:58
volume it's the other way around so it it it has very little surface area but
90:02
it has a lot of heat pipes and it's just like okay so the company recommends it
90:07
for core i3s and core i5s only but not core i7s and the thing that people need
90:12
to remember about passive coolers is that they're just basically all a bad
90:17
idea because a passive cooler you would
90:20
only use if you want to have like an extremely silent PC and if you have an
90:25
extremely silent PC then you probably
90:29
have a mostly passive rest of your system and passive coolers are not
90:33
designed to work correctly without system cooling around them so it's like
90:38
a catch 22 you can't win so just focus
90:41
on getting very quiet things everywhere
90:45
extremely Quiet Things very low RPM
90:48
spinning like noct noise blocker fans Yeah by all the Noctua
90:54
I refuse to acknowledge noise blocker because they're not noct TOA no but
90:57
seriously noise blocker stuff's really good I'm like what I just don't Fanboy
91:03
over it cuz you've never even tried them actually I haven't they've never
91:06
contacted me I've never contacted them it's not it's not because we hate each
91:10
