[Assistant] Have you seen the movie Nerf? The, their color graphics. Really cool. The color tone. I like that kind of color on my piece of Nerf.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like N-E-R-F? N-E-R-V. Oh, N-E-R-V.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But like those blue and green things? But I don't want to just use the LED stripe, I want something. You want it like painted that way? Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, yeaah, like, yeaah, that kind of color tone. But not the pink. So like this? That's, that's just kind of, uh, okay, that first one. Top left. Wow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Are they going to expanding, expand their... I kinda doubt it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I don't like Guileless either. I, I, I don't know. If it's stable to your home.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We don't have Wolverine Vancouver. No. And I feel government need to catch up with the technology nowadays and create their...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think the people who work for Uber or the drivers, they can form a union or something to pursue their rights. Yeaah. Well they just did here essentially. Yeaah. Same in Taiwan, we have Uber, but it's not legal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So there's, their work still insecure. They can't get it fine. But why don't they just push them to legal cuts?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think a lot of taxi drivers, they're afraid of that effect. They're afraid of switching because it's possible. But that's, it's moving on, you know? So. Catch up with the times.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Especially for foreigners, like we have communication problems.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And if you call it cap, and one time we were going to Taiwan for computex, I call


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And apparently he, he was not Canadian either, he was from somewhere, he wasn't from here, I, cause he has an accent, and I have an accent too, so, we couldn't talk to each other, and it took me like 30 minutes. In Taiwan? No, here, cause we were going to the airport.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It took me like 30 minutes to try to get the cab. Oh jeez. And I was almost late. Cause Luke couldn't find his passport. Oh yeaah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I did report one, one time when we, when we were in Taiwan, like two years ago, you, you guys went to Taiwan and I haven't, I wasn't working with, with them yet. I took them secret interview process. Oh, that Uber driver was insane. Remember?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He was like driving so fast on the highway and we almost got hit. Oh my god, we seriously almost died. So I, I report that when we got our money back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] See, like, people like us, we have a YouTube channel. It's like losing your job. I literally didn't even think about that. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ball of wax. How many people are losing their job in Turkey? If they work, if they have their YouTube channel. And yeah, loss of their communication is, that's horrible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay. Well, okay, so maybe because you sing up that way, maybe it's something else.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] About the tweet, I think. Like is it horribly offensive? I think it's okay, I think it's pretty creative. Pretty creative, yea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well I didn't even think that's... I wouldn't tweet that, but... I don't think it's that bad.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Battery failure thing? Booster tell people to stop riding its electric skateboard after battery malfunctions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, I talked to Nick, um, I said, why is there so many things that catch on fire? Their battery, what's wrong with their battery? He says, oh, maybe because of the, people are trying to do water poop, so they keep the heat in the battery itself, so the heat doesn't go out, so it might cause a fire. I don't know if it's true.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, I don't want flat, I want 3D, 3D case. I want like it look, like it pop out. The color is really cool, I like this color. And I like the design, looks really fancy. But I want


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I want it like, not just, oh like, like, the, uh, bomb, the bomb case.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I don't want my kids just a case. I want it also be like an, like an art display in my house.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So Adobe, they have a new feature that, uhm, when you export your video, you can, uh, social publishing to your media, uh, social media, like YouTube.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, cause this, so you can tag. Oh, I see. Like how you do, when you upload videos on YouTube, that's how you tag. Yea, yea, yea. So you can do title, description, and uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Choose all the resolution you want to export, so you go directly to YouTube, I think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know how straight it is going to be. I don't know if I would trust Adobe. I mean, I would still do export, upload.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, yeah, yeah, that's good. That's one concern. Cause what we do here is we export to Cineform, transcode and upload. And if you fail, say if there's one error in a video and you take like two hours or an hour to the last step, you have to redo it again. So.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, it's just, it's, I don't know, uhm, it might be a cool feature for some people, but for me, for us, I think we probably just do what we're doing right now, just export by self and upload it. But it's a really cool feature because I've never seen that before. They can, you can do everything, just one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, so I... I've been working here since...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, 2015, summer, summer. Other than the, like, four months that you were out. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Yeah, like before. I started here 2015, summertime. So, I was from Taiwan.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, I edit Techquickie channel. I'm a video editor. So he edits all the videos on Techquickie. And sometimes I will be on LTT. Oh, not on. I should edit. And sometimes for super fun channel, super fun. Sometimes I'm on here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Very, very, very, uhm, yeaah. And, mostly, I do... Look what happened. You went into the light. Oh, okay. So I...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, you know how, how strong the washing machine, when they spin. Yeaah. And Tathin can shake, like very, very hard. Yeaah. Cause one time, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But what you have to do first, when you are doing, uh, your laundry, you put your, all the clothes evenly in the washing machine. That's a machine. Cause if it's, if it's uneven, when they spin, they can be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dennis washing machine tips? Yeah, that's it. Everyone should know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So don't just pull in, just, you need to make a little bit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] More people using Internet Explorer than Firefox. Yes. Oh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I used to use Firefox. Yeaah. Then I switched to Chrome.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I want to give a recommendation, their hair wax, hair gel.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hair wax, okay. Hair wax, yeah, that is really good. Are you using it right now? No, I didn't. No, okay. I was going to, but I forgot. Okay, so uhm, every time I use hair wax, I need to be like, easier to wash when I wash my hands. Because some of them, other brands are really hard to wash out. And they make you look good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can do, you can down, you have download folder. Now I know what you guys were talking about. Cause I didn't know, when was you saying iPhone? Cause you guys always, oh you guys don't have a download folder or something? Cause I don't know what you guys are talking about.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't want to joke. Because it might make your iPhone worse, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah. Have you tried it? I tried it, but I don't, it's too plain for me. Yeaah. And I like real food, so, so it's for people like, you guys, if you're in a rush or you don't have time for food.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, you don't have time. Yeah. And you got all the, uh, what's that called?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All the health, nutrition, nutrition, nutrition, you got all the nutrition. Yeah. So, but you guys drink the, the liquid one, right? Yeah, so those are.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yup, but I, cause it's for their, is their first phone? I believe so, yea. Uhm, I have to see. From Kodak. First phone, I don't know. But it might be cool, cause they have good camera, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a camera. And here you'll find what it's for.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, no, that's, I will have to spend too much time on those games. Yeaah. So, only league. You don't actually game them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm going to. I watch like at least three episodes a day.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe he's coming back, I don't even know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And like, it, it is, in reality, it's not just a Linus vs. Evidus bet. No. You, you, you got, they made it a Linus Media Group vs. NerdFusion bet as a whole, so the entire companies have to wear each other's shirts depending on who wins.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They have like eight people. So we would have to buy all of our shirts for them?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you sorta want to win and also don't? Y-yes. Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not surprised. Ahal. Not surprised. Ahal. Not surprised.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is possibly my favorite segment that you've ever started. Really? This is what I am personally most interested in.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well see, but no, that's, that's why I'm excited for the series. Right. Because you know, I'm interested and I'm engaged. I love that kind of stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That cocking gun thing just looks like a really crappy ca- uh, hm, chalk outline of a gun. No one's gonna know what I'm talking about.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Also, I look partially angelic. Look at my hair.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right, but like every time you type something into the search bar, that's a search.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My Facebook is open a lot because I use it for like, I have this group where like some friends from high school and I just all share music. So I like play music through there almost constantly, but I don't like go through my feed, but I think you're probably right. A huge portion of people would spend more overall time there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I kind of want to, like, create our own little plot. That will just like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] God damn it. It, like, probably definitely is. But that would be so nice, because if you created your own bot, it wouldn't know, because it wouldn't be pushed, uh, it wouldn't be going through the API services. You could just have it literally, like, copy and paste it in. Should make it like a normal paste.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I seriously doubt this is someone like, manually intervention, be like, no, screw you, Norway, like, I don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just gonna say. And not others. Above it said girl. Yes. And if this was an underage girl. Yes, it is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's what I'm saying, I'm wondering about the, the, the, uh, what was her, was it Prime Minister? I don't want to get the position wrong.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So Google could have like, advertisers that allow their ads to go on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] More like crazy videos or like traditionally not advertiser friendly videos and like companies that want to have their ads on these crazy videos can get cheaper ad buys and maybe you get put in a lower monetization group which is only open to those things.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's why, so I didn't know if you were trying to write to me or not, because you don't normally type to Twitch chat. I don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause I talked to someone about this, I'm not going to say names or anything. Cause I've asked people like, why the hell do you actually do this? Cause I hate dealing with, sorry to any middlemen. I hate dealing with the middlemen because you always end up just having pass through conversations.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they're like, okay, we're confused because they told us one thing and now there's stuff going on. And then everyone has to kind of figure it out and you're just adding more steps to the process.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, so like this stuff is frustrating and I don't want to deal with it anyways. So I asked someone who was at one of the companies, not one of the PR companies, but one of the like companies that would hire the PR companies, who was a PR person. We call them the brand, right? The brand, there we go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There we go, okay, so I talked to a PR person from the brand, and asked them why they don't do it, and it's a shield.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh no, definitely. For everyone at the brand, throughout the whole chain, the brand itself and the people working at the brand, it's all a shield. It's a meat shield.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You have to defend against the internet's flamethrowers of compassion.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's still 8 gigs of GDDR5, because that much is in the notes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, anyway. So, uh, it's gonna be the war again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Last time there was a PlayStation and Xbox launch and there's coming up there will be a PlayStation and Xbox launch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There was all the image comparisons, every single tech YouTuber, including us, and probably this will happen again, is gonna create, uhm, computers that are like the same price or cheaper and better or the same performance, and then everyone's gonna be like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But, as computer parts keep coming out, and these consoles are gonna stay here for a little while, in the future we'll have even better ones.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then with the next GPU launch, there will be even more videos of people going like, oh man, look, you can even make faster computers for the same price as the consoles, but then the consoles are gonna go down in price, and the whole war is gonna come back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's, again, uhm, like I just said for your like doubling thing, there's some problems with it. But it was a fun video.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like what it brings in terms of like people actually building low cost computers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People are gonna start having pictures of the original PlayStation 4 or Peasant Station 4 and have like fake dirt on it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh my. This is going to be confusing, actually. One of the really good things about consoles for a long time was the like easy gifting idea. Plug and play. The mom could just go to the store and be like, my son wants the Xbox.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And part of the problem is that this might actually introduce like, competitive advantages.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, yeaah, that'll probably be used. Uh, you should maybe straw poll a few names that you see in there and see who-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anyways, what I was going to say was it might actually introduce a competitive advantage, because if you're getting significantly more framerate.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe in older games that aren't meant to run or aren't designed to run at higher resolution, they might run faster.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh yea, lack of consumer demand. The very first question.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ahhhh, fancy. Uh, oop, we're going to do this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's only 42 votes, as you can see there, but it's like, it's still up there, and this is the pre-order page on Amazon way before you can buy it, so I'm not suspecting that much. And there's 206 answers, which is insane, compared to like the one or six or zero answers on the other questions. I like the top answer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So yeah, lack of consumer demand may be an inaccurate statement.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause streaming 4k is not the same. Oh no, it's not. It's not the same on like a few levels.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm gonna go pretty blunt here and say that I don't think you can comment if you haven't seen it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When it's a meter above your face. Hell yeaah. Uhm, okay, but like.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shit, what was I gonna say. I think that consumer demand would be more existent if this thing did support it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because I don't think that many people are going to want to go buy a player for 4k blu-ray, but if their PlayStation already supported it, and they go to the store,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hackers, uh, uh, Harry Potter, Lord of the Rings, Secret Life of Walter Mitty, The Imaginarium of Dr. Parnassus, these are all things that I'd like to have on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yep. Because I paid for it. And these streaming services are volatile. I don't think Netflix is gonna go away, that's not what I mean by volatile. Yeah, no. But the content that's on there can change. Yep. And does change.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I still, I still kinda want it, like, it's totally not worth it and it goes completely against the algorithm stuff that YouTube is trying to use right now. But I would still love to make that channel that we talked about back at the old office. Was it? I don't know if you remember this, but uhm, I talked about it with a OnePlus review.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it was the one plus one that I was talking about it for, where I would be like, it's just like super short tech reviews. So like 30 second review? Yeah. Like terrible company, good phone, problems with software stuff. Look it up on the forums. But it's cheap. But it's cheap. See you next time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's aww, it's so short though, it's shorter than tech quickies. Cause tech quickies aren't really like the fastest


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 30 second. These would be like 30 second videos.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] React? Oh lord. Maybe we could trademark the name 30 second videos?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had like a script for the 1 plus 1 done at that point in time. I don't remember where it ended up going, but uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then like, you could just copy paste videos. So like, don't, don't say the product name in the video. And then if like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If the content of the review would be the same, you just put a different title on it and re-upload it. So like, every CPU cooler that comes out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then, okay, that could be the difference for every video. There would just be, performance pretty good, and there's a graph while you say performance pretty good, and it just slots it wherever it goes, which is gonna be like exactly where the ones in the same form factor go, and then you're done.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I love that you didn't say what brand there. No, that's because it switches generation by generation. It does, it does. But no, but, okay, the reason why I said that is cause the copy paste video thing that I was talking about, cause you could just use that for like a bunch of different cards.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like it way too much. I just, it does have a, it has a lot of problems. And the thing is, people don't even want that. People want words. Yep. Even if they're pretty close to unnecessary, they want words.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And adding impact to a certain part of the video or like, specifically what you're saying or whatever else.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We used to do- History. I had a benchmark for text length for videos before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It doesn't cost too much. It's pretty awesome. You don't have to go to the store. They're delivered to your house.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because holding domains and using the domains can be beneficial.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I love this, this is making me happy. I was so crushed when they said we shouldn't do their slogans anymore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're not supposed to say it? I thought we're not supposed to say any slogans anymore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, if we got the right sponsors on that channel,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It could be great. Cause if they were sponsors based on like saving time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You could go like, yup, this air cooler is just the same as all other air coolers in its form factor. It looks like this. It costs this much. It fits here on a performance graph, which is exactly where you expected it to go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can buy it at Amazon. And, by the way, if you hate wasting time, which is why you watch these videos, check out Dollar Shave Club, they deliver shavers to your door. Goodbye.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or they'd be like, yea, it cost an astronomical amount more money to make and made like point two of a difference.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] iPhone 7, really expensive, no headphone jack, you can use an adapter, it's $40 and really big. Thanks for watching.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This video was sponsored by Dollar Shave Club. If you hate wasting time, check out their razors. They ship directly to your door.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because it breaks frequently. If it didn't really break, then it would be fine. But I've heard so many people have to replace buttons, including you, right?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, yeah. Their haptic feedback engine is like, very good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Quick thing that I want to add about your ingress protection thing. This phone is, I don't remember what it is. IP67, if I recall correctly. Yep, same. I don't believe that I've taken it out of spec. Uhm, it has problems. There you go. That are very probably because of water.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Something like that. But okay, my counter-argument to that a little bit. I said I was gonna devils advocate you, but not yet. Uhm, why don't I just have two? Go dually USB type C's.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This one charges faster, by the way. Or something. You can plug it into either, but like this one will charge your phone faster.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did that change your mic? Did you fully unplug it? Oh, maybe. It's worth checking.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the very first thing I thought of when I saw that was like, wow, I don't want to charge my headphones.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm not going to buy a full gamut of new headphone things because I use full headphones and earbuds with my phone. So that's not going to happen. Again, I'm going to need a million of them and like they're probably not cheap.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've, I think 40 bucks, wasn't that for the Balkan, USB-C to dual USB-C?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So Belkin has an adapter already, or not USB-C, derp, lightning, uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That just splits it, but it's like on a short little cable and then it's a huge box so that you'd be able to plug in a headphone and microphone thing. There you go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What I'm expecting is that I kinda think someone's gonna come up with a, a case.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That has extra ports built in. I'm not kidding, so you're just gonna have to buy a bigger phone, essentially.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But like, having it slimline in a case, as slim as it can get, uhm, and just making your phone taller, essentially.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's probably the most elegant solution that they're going to be able to do. So the case will plug into the bottom of your phone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, there is a most elegant way to put a toothbrush on a hippo. There is. I'm sure there is. But who cares?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or just let dust sit on them. That too. Glossy things just look terrible unless you literally just cleaned it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of the things that I really don't like about the wireless earpods is that they look like earrings. Have you seen that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like most wireless headphones, they just wrap around.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah. But then you look at like, bluetooth things.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, you have to shop fairly carefully these days. Not exploding is an exclusive feature.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One thing that drives me insane about this, where's the actual topic? It'll be free to download with a set purchase price. What?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What does that even mean? And that's not like a weird quote that Colton did. That's exactly the quote. In quotations. That's what the guy said. So like, I don't know. Cause I read, I read-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I read, it'll be free to download, but with a set purchase price, and was like, wow, Colton, way to go. Clicked through and was like, oh, actually, yes. Good job, Colton. More literally this time. Like, what does that even mean?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, VR is an extremely difficult thing to properly explain the experience and feeling of without having the person actually do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, that makes sense. Uhm. Okay, so why? Yes, it's extremely, it's hard to translate because it's an experience.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like some, it's like telling someone that uhm, a roller coaster was cool, who's never been on a roller coaster or anything that moves quickly or inflicted g-force on them at all before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, you go around the corner and it like pulls your body and stuff, and the person's like, what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like it doesn't, it doesn't translate very well. Every single person I've described VR to, no matter how excited and how intricate I made the description,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Once they try it, completely different conversations.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, there's a combination of things. Uhm, that's possibly true. I mean, I play VR. I don't have friends. That's possibly true to a certain degree. One thing that I was pushing for quite a while, and you probably know this, is that I wanted Best Spies and stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Gear VR is awful. Exactly. So people are getting this Gear VR for free, throwing it on, and then going, why the heck?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Censoring myself a little bit there. Would I ever spend all that money?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But they're calling it the same thing, and Samsung is all, oh yeaah, and their radio advertisements are like, oh yeaah, today I was running around with dinosaurs, and then I was like fighting zombies and stuff, and so they try to make it the same amount of exciting, and they describe it in the exact same way that people are describing the high-end headsets.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then people are trying the Gear VRs and then going, why the hell would I ever buy that nicer one? So people are not exposed to it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The well-informed community also knows that these are the first version.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's probably follow-up versions coming relatively quickly that will be considerably better and that's gonna be happening for a while. So like, it's, it's this huge, I totally saw this coming. That's why, that's a big reason why I was worried about even making the Rift review so late. Because I knew the hype train was already crashing so hard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would be interested in seeing some other statistics on that Steam thing, like the percentage of computers that can actually perform properly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With those VR headsets. How many of those people are buying headsets? Because a huge amount of the Steam Hardware Survey is like, not even necessarily dedicated GPU laptops.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Speaking of VR things, because someone lit the fire, uhm, Oculus Touch controller price was leaked on MediaMarkt for 200 euros.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which is probably going to be 200 US dollars as well because... Because, ha! Take that, Europeans. You're not an American, so you get wrecked by pricing, apparently. Sorry. We're not Americans either, so before anyone forgets that point. We just like talking about Trump because it's funny.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it really impacts us a lot because we live really close and we're a really small population.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, what about the worst? The worst was probably the super funs we did like really early in the year before I lost all that weight and I got to see how fat I looked on camera. So that was kind of awesome.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, you can, you can enjoy burgers, just always in moderation, you know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it just sort of is coming out to the side like a jester hat, but with only one thingy on it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bye! Bye! Happy Festivus!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Essentially what happens is like, the PC bongs work out a deal with Blizzard, where they're like, oh yeaah, we're just gonna let everyone use the game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And they pay like a lump sum. They pay a lump sum to Blizzard and then people pay hourly to use it on their own account.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's just like, they're the same as always. And people are posting videos about it, like they have forever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Probably a good thing. Yeah. Yeah, that's fair. Uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Imagine the FBI decided to start funding themselves by starting an ad agency.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it super hardcore backed up, uh, Musk and everyone else in that realm that is like, we should probably be a little bit careful about AI stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I see why it's grabbing cell phone, but I think it should also look at like dimensions. Like it's grabbing cell phone because of the screen and stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Try it again. It's what it does like in rapid succession.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So is it learning then? Is it trying to get better? Basically, the answer is that ads artwork is terrible. Can you tell it what it actually is?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I believe personally that nothing is good until Brandon says that it is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you have to- You know how roasts were like a thing for a little while? Yeah. They should just scratch that whole concept and then just start having celebrity roasts where someone just sits in front of a camera and just gets wrecked by Twitch chat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] These hips. I do, I do appreciate his beard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, if you lose a passport, you can change it, like, things can be solved, but one of the problems is that the passport numbers and expiry dates for overseas Filipino workers have leaked as well, which is like, not great, so it's probably not gonna be...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Passport numbers for overseas Filipino workers, which like to get this fixed, I wouldn't be super surprised if you had to physically go back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, apparently Chris Johnson said that it's the data, not the image itself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which, it- Kinda sorta has done sorta maybe some things sometimes? Right, except that it- Also not really. Also not really. Cause it's usually like small groups that all band together and then say that they are- Or don't. Or don't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But who is this 4chan? Yeah, exactly. That's what I wanted.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Completely. Oh my goodness. One thing, okay, just to talk about Olympics for a very short period of time, one thing I don't understand, there's massive like financial problems with the Olympics, why don't they hold it in the same place twice in a row and then move on?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause that would be smart. I've never understood that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Locations, but very recently passed locations.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To be fair, a lot of places are currently sort of a disaster waiting to happen if you look at them at a documentary level.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, I will try to restrict my amount of time talking about this. Uhm, so, a server that I'm gonna pronounce wrong because my last name is French but I'm not actually French, called Nostralius, which just means nostalgia in French, apparently. Someone told me that, I could be wrong. That doesn't sound like French to me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anyways, I'm trying to condense it and I'm skipping over massive important things. Anyways, this group called Nostralius was running a private World of Warcraft server. So basically, they took like cached versions of code and reprogrammed things on their own, like re-scripting boss events and doing all this crap.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Crazy stuff. Even working on code in order to attempt to cluster servers together and like, it was pretty nuts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And about 150,000 active players, which is a huge amount of people. And there's been tons of private WoW servers over the years. This one stood out. The reason why this one stood out is for a few different reasons. One of the main ones is that they are non-profit, essentially. They don't take any form of donations.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And there was no way to give them any money. They were just doing it because they wanted the server to be up. All of their game masters, all of their admins, all of their everything for everyone that worked on the server at all or helped anyone were not allowed to have like normal characters in the game. Like a game master was not allowed to have a character that was a raider because that could be seen as unfair because they could help themselves.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So like it was, it was very balanced in that way. They were very aggressive at going after people that were hacking. They were very aggressive at going against people that were botting or selling gold or selling accounts or everything. They bandwaved people all the time. It was this kind of sanction. And to be completely honest, I played on it, my brother played on it, my dad played on it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was super cool because the current version of World of Warcraft sucks in terms of social interaction. Everyone just sits in something called a garrison, which is their own little private area, does everything from there, teleports everywhere that they need to go, doesn't talk to anyone, never needs to talk to anyone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did you enjoy the amount of difficulty in the game? Yea. It's excessively easy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, and you have to like grind through things and things are actually relatively hard. Actually for a mage they're usually a little bit easier, but for other stuff it's like kind of difficult and blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah. There's no like- That's why mages have high intelligence.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Someone made a video about how stupid the current version of WoW is by picking a healer, going into an instance, and refusing to ever heal. And they made it through the entire thing without stopping.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] OVH were the people that were hosting them, sent the cease and desist to OVH. So OVH was like, okay, well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We have to shut your server off. Gave them a little bit of time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So they had a few more days with the server up. Uhm, I was there for the last like half an hour. I recorded. I can't give it anywhere because if it goes anywhere they're just going to take it down. But I recorded like the last few minutes just outside of Orgrimmar where there's like thousands and thousands of people. My computer usually gets over 200 FPS in that game. It was getting


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There was like actually thousands of people all standing in one pile, and people were just spamming spells and stuff, it was kind of nuts. Uhm, it was kind of cool, but nuts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The GMs were teleporting into cities and people were forming like giant circles around them and everyone was like banking them and stuff. It was super weird. It was super weird. Anyways-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, server shutdowns are usually kind of like that. Uhm, anyways, there's a change.org petition, which I don't think I have the link for right now because... I'll go find it. Go and get it in the dock.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It has almost 100,000 signatures. I think last time I looked it was above 90,000. It might have been above 80,000. I don't remember which one it was. Uhm, but the petition isn't even necessarily like, let us have our server back. Because honestly, that's probably not what should happen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because, especially a server of this magnitude, with this many people trying to play a single game, it probably shouldn't be a private server run by people for no profit. It should probably, that's, you're going in the wrong direction. Yeah, I can't, I can't find it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know where it's gonna be. Anyways, uhm, it should be ran by Blizzard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's what should happen. Whether they hire all the guys that ran Astralis and get them to run an official version or whatever, that's probably what should happen. And the petition was largely just about like, hey guys, do something. There's a massive community of people that want to play this game. Your current game is shit. Keep the current game going. Whatever. No one cares. Also, Opal, I'm sure some people.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, also open vanilla or progressive servers or whatever. One of the team leads, I don't remember his name right now, of the original World of Warcraft. The like, one of the most infamous versions of the game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One of the biggest things that people are frustrated about right now is this si- this petition has a hundred and four thousand freaking signatures. A hundred and five almost more accurately.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and Blizzard has said nothing publicly about it. At all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dunno. Don't wanna, I don't wanna play, basically everyone that I talk to in that game, my entire guild, my dad, my brother, everyone I talk to about it, doesn't really wanna play on a private server.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's sketchy. You don't know if it's going to continue to exist. You kind of want your character to continue to be a thing. I would love to pay for the freaking game. Let all of us give you money. Be greedy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The CEO of Activision is like one of the most notoriously greedy dudes ever. Be greedy! Open vanilla or progressive servers! Take our money! Millions! You'll make tons! Just do it!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For one. And for two, these guys are literally building it from the ground up and it 100% felt perfect.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There was glitches and stuff, but like, are you kidding me? Classic wowhead glitches at the butt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Don't, don't, don't try to like, rose-tinged glasses that. That game was broken.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There are people out there that have tons of videos on all of the fights.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Exact data from databases that were ran back in the day like Wowhead and a few other ones that I don't remember, uhm, that have exact drop percentages for different items like it can very easily be rebuilt and the source code is gone is a bullshit excuse.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I found a square. That takes up space.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Those guys that like ride the bikes and have the things behind it that like can tell you they'll get way more business now. Rickshaws?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I feel like they get way more work. Cause there's actually points in time where like I have to walk for a little while and like I really need to do something on my phone. And I don't have time to not do one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As the crow flies. Yeaah. Is really fast.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Canada has something called a Spy Palace. We can pretty much just like stop this whole topic there. Spying in Canada is brutal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just in case people were wondering about the Canadian Spy Palace, I posted it in the Twitch chat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which is huge, cause the current ones don't, and if your Wii U dies, you lose all of your digital purposes, uh, purchases, which is BULLSHIT.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That should even be a feature, like will feature, it's like will have fixed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If that one's that bad, badass, we should get it and replace mine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can kinda do a lot. Yeah, it's actually pretty good. Like, upsampling on old school games is a thing. Yeah, yeah. Woah. Like certain, like, PlayStation 1 games? Have you seen that stuff?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I was never in the emulator game. I always had real copies. Like even, fairly recently I bought Fable 1.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Crap, I failed. I got GTA 3 for like 3 bucks, so I was like, screw it, whatever. And then I got, uh, Need for Speed Most Wanted Black Edition, speaking of Black Edition. Nice! Like the old, like, Super Sick Most Wanted with that blue and silver BMW at the start. It's a great game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I see what you're saying. Yeah, they're Wii U remasters, apparently. Remasters, actually? Yeah. Wii U remasters, wow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Although, I realize that the market probably doesn't want this and you probably shouldn't do it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But if you guys made a G900 that instead of having a plug-in cable in the front, and instead of having like a properly placed really good battery in the back, had replaceable batteries like the G7,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hold up, 219gaming.com said in the Twitch chat, Well, I want to support you guys, but I can't seem to get an answer, so thanks anyways. Twitch chat is NOT the right place to try to contact us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. Uh, so there's that. I didn't see any of the other stuff you said, but I saw that. I always see these.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right now, the main thing Rift kinda had going for it was its games library.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because the experience on Vive currently is just better. The touch controllers are extremely interesting and currently non-existent. At least for consumers. So...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I actually don't understand how like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I will be in TeamSpeak with someone who's a viewer, like a friend on the forum or something like that. And they will tell me things.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even though I'm in communication with those companies and they're actively telling me that there's nothing going on. And I'm like, what? How do you guys suck this-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Apple doesn't really leak things, I know they just leaked their renaming of MacOS and that's probably because no one cared. Like, other important things, they just don't.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, I did when we were deciding if it was a good idea or not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which is in Richmond, by the way. Vancouver International Airport, not in Vancouver. Yes. It's in the greater Vancouver area. That's true.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So. Or Greater Vancouver Regional District, as it's actually called. The GTA is the Greater Toronto Area. The GVRG, sucka. Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, you did. That's okay, because I can work nipples into anything. Uh, speak, uh-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People are asking us to turn the mic up, but I just did a test recording and it was fine, so uhm, I guess it was, I guess I had the volume a little high. Actually, I don't even know why that worked at all, but I, what I just did in terms of testing, maybe I could load up the stream and see if people are messing with me in the meantime. Why don't you let them know what fantastic topics we have for them today.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, I'm at like 38% on my system volume, so uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay. Space mining. Space mining, what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, apparently the intro is loud. Well, you know what, you guys, there is only so much I can- Ow! There's only so much I can do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Jim's address says, ow. And also that it's pre-recorded, I think. No, it's not pre-recorded. Alright, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's get into some topics. First up, we've got, and I actually have no idea whether, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Gawker is no more, at least in its current form. Maybe someday it will reach its final form.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But that won't be it's current form. They filed for bankruptcy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And have said that they will sell the company. Uh, the headline says to Ziff Davis or someone else that I don't think it's necessarily Gawker saying they're gonna sell to Ziff Davis. It's that Ziff Davis has an offer in on them for somewhere to the tune of 90 to 100 million dollars. You know, maybe I should just buy Gawker.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Theoretically, they could sell individual publications. So, uh, so Gawker is, uh, Lifehacker, Jezebel, Deadspin, Gawker.com, Gizmo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Deadspin? I don't know if you said that. Yeah, no, you said Deadspin, actually, but you said it twice, which is important for people who didn't hear you the first time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so I was close. I was actually quite close, okay. So uhm, basically yeaah, they're filing for chapter 11 bankruptcy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, so they're, they're, they've announced their chapter 11 filing, uh, basically that puts them in, in protection from creditors for the time being while they...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They have told their employees that they still plan to fight the case and to operate the publishing business while they do so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But, Ziff Davis has come out and said there's, uh, let me just see if I can bring up the, uh, the article here. So this was in an internal memo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's conflicting reports, so this particular one on recode.net says for around 100 million, but it should be noted that they may end up paying more because this is just their initial bid for it and actually nothing to do necessarily with, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That big. I had no idea online written...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Media publications were still worth like tens of millions of dollars each. I mean, I guess it's sort of enormous amounts of traffic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, this is a really good clip with Nick Denton basically saying, uhm, nope, I stand by the decision to publish that even in light of everything that has happened. Uhm, he's expressed a lot of frustration with Peter Thiel basically


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Basically funding this lawsuit as a way to, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think, I forget, I was reading some article about it, but the quote from him was something to the effect, don't quote me on this, that's a quote of a quote that's not an accurate quote, but sick. Uhm, so the, so something to the effect of, that it's not vengeance, but it's more of like a cautionary,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sort of like, it's more of a deterrent, I think, was something close to the word that was used.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that was, that was sort of how he interpreted the Hulk Hogan article where this sort of.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Banging, to use the term that the kids use these days, I think. Uh, a friend's wife. Did they say that?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so Luke's parents aside, and they're- whatever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They don't still watch Wandshow, do they? They probably do. Oh, that's a shame. Hi Mom and Dad. Uhm...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So it'll be a court-supervised auction, and, uh...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Basically, the lawsuit, one way or the other, will have to be resolved before Nick, uh, before, excuse me, Ziff Davis is gonna have any interest in, in taking, uh, taking possession of it. And, uh, yeaah, that's basically how it went down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, would this make you think twice about publishing a sex tape online as tech tips?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just want- we've got people asking for us to review a sex bot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, we'd have to be careful what we show in B-roll and not in B-roll, but would you, would you benchmark it and host the video?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, they're not that sophisticated at this point. I think basically they just do pre-programmed phrases.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would, I would argue, I would argue the other way. So I think porn is where it is. So let's establish that porn is a baseline. Okay. And, you know, your baseline could be it's like super okay and mine could be it's super not okay or the other way around. Whatever. Doesn't matter. Let's call two-dimensional porn


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like I'm thinking like two-dimensional, like just kind of vanilla porn.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, like whatever would be vanilla for you. Everyone's vanilla can be a little different. You know, chocolate, strawberry, vanilla. We're talking vanilla, okay? So...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's our baseline. I would make the argument that a robot is actually less akin to a real life sexual experience than VR.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And certainly less than, uh, than toy assisted VR.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And remember, your no zone can be sort of what you're comfortable with someone else.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I, I, I, I wholly disagree. Okay. I think that the robot, and then, okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I'm saying inanimate object. I understand that not all of them are completely inanimate. Uhm, some of them like blink and stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Confirms a PS4 console upgrade, but it won't!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then we were like, okay, we'll do it next year. But the problem is that we're not in the console mindset. Like we don't even understand what qualifies as like a big E3 for console people because it's all just kind of E3.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We go, and it's like, here's some game with, games with some tessellation or something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I mean, on that subject, man, I went to, uh, I think two keynotes. Yeah, two keynotes at Computex this year. Let's just not do them anymore. They are the worst thing ever. There is nothing that I can learn in a keynote that I can't learn by...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, this is actually, this is actually sort of an ongoing...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it's actually only got about a quarter million views. Let's go ahead and pop that up on our screen here. So, they basically say, okay, look.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, here's the popularity of certain, uhm, search terms. For example, Hillary Clinton indictment and Hillary Clinton India. You can see indictment is much more popular than India, uh, according to Google's own interest over time. And they point out that when you actually enter


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hillary Clinton ind into Google search, it comes up with Indiana, India, independent voters, Indiana campaign, absolutely nothing about indictment as a suggested search, with the argument being made by Sourcefed being that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You should be suggesting search topics based on autocomplete, based on what people are actually searching for that would start with those letters.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So this is, this is very quickly turning into-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That they would have expected. So indictment was the top.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, they make the argument that if there's three people in a room, and I think it went something along, don't quote me on this again, three people in a room, and one of them says, I'm in a room, and two of them say, I'm on, the room's on fire. You know, you should probably go with the two people who are saying, hey, the room's on fire, and not the person that, it was relevant information, I guess is the point. Uhm, now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Up on the verge already. Google denies- Oh, and there's, there's like, there's like a whole like, um, Illuminati thing about how, um, Larry Page, uh, funded or owns a company that- Well I think that's actually true. Oh, that's true.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I mean, to be clear, I'm not saying Illuminati confirmed, like, you know, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That means nothing. He probably keeps that amount of money in every pair of shoes in the event that he gets robbed and he needs to, you know, grab some money for walking around out of somewhere that the robber wouldn't have gotten it from.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hillary Clinton showed up outside the door of our warehouse.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Walked in with like armed guards behind her dressed in black and told us, well not us, told our computer, you blue screen right now or we are not walking out of this place. And it did.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so the last thing happened, our computer blue screen. I'm not really sure what the deal was with that. Something to do with attempted switch from DPC.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We don't have any of those, that's for sure. So, let's get back into uhm, into what I was talking about. What the hell was I talking about before? Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, so, right, uh, medium dot- Where was I going with this? Okay, so-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Verge has, uh, the Verge has a good, uh, follow-up that basically says Google denies altering search suggestions for Hillary Clinton and points out that some of the examples that source-fed sites, uh, for example, uh, Hillary Clinton CRI doesn't come up with crime, in fact, apply across the board.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Google avoids auto completing the word crime or criminal, uhm, so that they can avoid, uhm, making disparaging comments about people who


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] May not have actually committed a crime or may not be a criminal. In fact, they do. So they've pointed this out. This is, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Who's this guy? Matt Cutts is the currently on leave from his position as head of Google's webspam team.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So they do this for everyone else, including people that have actually been charged and convicted. Very interesting. Uhm, he also points out that those looking for negative stories don't necessarily type Hillary's last name. They actually mostly search apparently for Hillary.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, you can look for that though. Uhm, like you can search for relevance, like you can search for uhm, how hot a search is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Basically, uhm, oh, so another thing they pointed out is that many results pop in when you type in Donald Trump racist, but results also appear for Hillary Clinton racist.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So basically the conclusion in the Verge article here is they're likely trying to walk the line between providing as much information as they can and not stepping into a sort of grey legal area by, say, suggesting that someone could be a criminal. Uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So here's a state- a spokesperson's full statement on the matter. Google Autocomplete does not favor any candidate or cause, claims to the contrary simply misunderstand how Autocomplete works.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, that's interesting. I wonder if that is a regional thing as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't even necessarily know- cause like- So there you have it. Uh, so racist costume is my sick fifth. Fifth suggestion-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so there you go. Oh, okay, so... Oh no, yep, no, look.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ah, yeah, okay, there you go. So... Age, email, young news.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Donald Glover. Let's help it out a little bit. So there's nothing particularly incriminating there, but it looks like as you continue to dig in and find examples, you can find stuff that, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] appears to be a bit of an issue. So there is an article over on medium.com that appears to have been done without help from Google.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Completely leaves out the quite common search term Donald Trump rape. Uhm, which was the whole alleged thing with, uh, Ivana Trump. Where she eventually took back the statement, but she claimed that he raped her. So... Oh, I guess I didn't follow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, so, Donald Trump LA. Okay, so we've got Donald Trump lawsuits and Donald Trump laughing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, at this point, you're probably thinking, this is a great point. At this point, you're probably thinking to yourself, whoa, you're just choosing random words and searching them. And he's like, yeah, that's right, I'm doing exactly what- That totally makes sense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I also have a really hard time believing that Hillary Clinton is necessarily the candidate that, like, Google as a whole would have decided is, like, ideal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that's a can of worms. Actually, this is interesting. I had, uhm, sort of changing topics. I had dinner, uh, at Computex with, uh, like a self-professed, like die-hard Trump supporter and, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Basically the conversation went something along the lines of, like where's the tech talk? This is tech by the way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it's Google stuff, and what I'm telling you about right now is a conversation I had at Computex. Tech is right in there. Uhm, so basically he, he like was just out of absolutely nowhere. We were talking about something to do with AMD's strategy for FirePro cards and distribution channels or something like that. It was legitimately tech conversation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then he goes, something, something, something, you know, my boy Donald, something, something, something. And I, and then he's like, well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we were like, oh, okay, so you're a Trump supporter. Like, as if it was not obvious at that point. And he goes, yeah, you know, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah, of course I am, why, what are you? Well, Canadian. He's like, oh, you're socialist then.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, you know what, A, not necessarily, uh, for one thing, and B,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, who cares, because at a business dinner, the last thing that I'm gonna be talking about is socialism or Donald Trump. That is like completely inappropriate.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, so yeaah. But, uh, hey! He's not afraid to speak his mind, just like his boy Donald, so I'll give him that. Uhm...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] However inappropriate or appropriate it might be. Weren't we supposed to be talking about the 4K ready PlayStation?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then we're like, we won't be at E3 either. Okay, so let's talk about the PlayStation 4 console upgrade. To be clear, there doesn't seem to be any indication that this is an upgrade in the sense that you can upgrade your existing console. It looks like there will be an upgrade.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because actually the HDMI port on the PlayStation is not gonna output it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So there's that. Uhm, yeaah, so technically-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I actually, I actually don't know. So $500 headband and display. Blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah. Upcoming virtual reality headset for the PS4 console. But what's interesting is that the only confirmation that we have is that there will be an upgraded PS4. They're not actually calling it something else.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So if they said PSVR is for the PlayStation 4, I mean if this is like a...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh man, cause there has been some confusing stuff that's gone on in console generations before, you know, mini versions and...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it's like defunct now. I'm sure, but like, okay. It was a thing though.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, might have just been experimental. That's also very possible. Anyway, the console will be priced higher than the current $350 for the existing PS4, and it will be better. Uhm, so there you go. And speaking of things that will be better...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All of our talking points for Squarespace. Yay. So, we are no longer allowed to say.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Squarespace offers 24-7 support via live chat and email. They feature responsive design on all of their website templates, which means your website will look great on any device. They've got commerce, free online store that is available with every website, whether you wanna sell like, you know, Etsy type crafts or, uh, you know, fish, or whatever the case may be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what? We could probably make this work. And if...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, no, you're not supposed to say it. If? No, hold on, but...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I can't. I can't. I thought maybe I could make it so that the you should could be implied, but the sentence would actually work without it. But I don't think I can.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cover pages is a feature that allows you to set up a beautiful one page online presence in minutes. You can start a trial with no credit card required and start building your website today.

[Assistant] When you decide to sign up, make sure you use offer code WAN to get 10% off your first purchase.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So uh, thanks to Squarespace for supporting the WAN Show. You should keep doing it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Also in the lineup today is iFixit. iFixit is probably the sponsor, the actual legitimate sponsor that actually sponsors the show. There are closer ones, if you're looking for a kit, they're like right there. There's an entire bin of them right there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] of like, discreetly working in product placements for more often than any other because I legitimately use RIFixit stuff all the time. Ifixit.com is your complete DIY electronics repair solution.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] From their, yeaah, over there, that's what I said. See, he's going over there now. From their 19,000 free step-by-step repair guides to their huge inventory of replacement parts and tools. We've used iFixit stuff for everything. From screwdrivers for taking stuff apart, to suction cups for taking stuff apart, to uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, like, more better screwdrivers for taking stuff apart to lots of different bits for the screwdrivers. These are actually, this is like an old kit too, but we've got like tons of i- It's funny, the old kit is the one we have here because I took the new one home. It's got more driver bits, it's got better-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, better spudgers, it's got more suction cups, it's just generally like super awesome. We've ordered replacement parts from them for putting the iMac, uh, the 5K iMac that I reviewed back together after I opened it up in order to take it apart for some reason. Why did I think that was a good idea?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anyway, I took it apart and put it back together, and all their tools are backed by iFixit's lifetime warranty. The ProTech Toolkit, the good one that I can't show you because it's at home, is $69.95, and the best part is you can get 10 bucks a- oh, nope. Ah, my talking points are wrong.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Five bucks off on a purchase of ten dollars or more. My talking points are exactly correct. I just saw the ten and I jumped the gun there. Speaking of jumping the gun...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have a link to the Cooler Master store here that I am supposed to follow. Ah, yes my friends, so cmstore-usa.com has all kinds of interesting stuff. Everything from Cooler Master and, uh, basically, yes, everything from Cooler Master.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This actually ties in really well to the thing that I was criticizing about Asus' concept PC that they had at the show. That, uh, that one that all assembles with hard PCBs. And the problem is that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They were like, oh yeaah, we'll have like, modular upgrades for, uh, rear I.O.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, the controller is actually in the, like, upgrade module. That's what I'm saying, so it's gonna be really expensive. Yeah, so, so, well, okay, so the product manager for the claims it wasn't, but I was like, yes it will. Sure. Uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So Cooler Master by stocking, cause that's been a big problem for cases too. I bought a windowed side panel for an Antec P160. So that was...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 12 years ago. Uhm, anyway, so I did that. It took like five weeks to special order because there was like one in the entire country and that's the way it was then and that's the way it is today when it comes to accessories for computer cases.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because you just can't stock enough of them in all the right distribution areas in order to have timely fulfillment of those orders be possible. And that was a windowed side panel. I mean, it's a relatively common thing. We're not talking like, like a frickin', you know,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I think it's pretty cool. So the other thing we're supposed to mention, I guess, is the, uhm, uh, the MasterCase Maker 5.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, make it what you will. I know Luke, you especially had a lot of skepticism in your brain and in your heart and probably in your pants about Cooler Master's whole Maker branding and there are still some products


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Here, we're still doing a Cooler Master sponsor spot, but I'm not afraid to criticize them during a sponsor spot. There are still some Cooler Master products that I look at the maker branding and I just go, like, what exactly is Maker about this?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I've gotta give them the vision for the case. At CES they announced that they were gonna have this store. Here we are six months later. They have products in it. So they are working on it. They are trying to make it actually, like, maker in some way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But we'll give you that one, Cooler Master. You made it. Get it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, let's talk about beautiful community interaction. The original article here is from Engadget. Riot used League of Legends chat logs to spot bad staff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So Riot Games looked at employees' chat logs and found a correlation between their behavior in and out of game. They worked with Google's work staff analytics team and picked through the last 12 months.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] ...had shown unusually high levels of toxic behavior in game.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Armed with this information, Riot used it to proactively address the problem with remaining staff. So they singled out 30 employees, all of whom were actually fairly new to the company and gave them two options. Those who got a stern warning and those who should be let go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then during the meetings, many employees expressed regret at how they behaved in-game. Uh, they received essays from employees vowing to change their ways. And the report ended with Riot's intention to request League of Legends usernames from all future hires for similar analysis.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So yeaah, like, social media investigation by potential and current employers just got real. Very, very real. Like, I wouldn't be, and you know what, it's funny, because if you'd asked me yesterday,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What is social media? I would have said, I don't know, Twitter, Facebook, YouTube.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and a lot of people don't even think of YouTube, like I only think of it because YouTube is my primary social platform. Uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot of people watch a video. What percentage leave a comment under the video?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, but it absolutely is. It is a social media platform.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I would not have said the game I played last Saturday night.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, let's get a strawpoll going on here, like, ooooh. Strawpoll is what Riot did okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so before we, before we get into the answer to that question, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let me say this, when I applied at NCIX,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you give us your League of Legends username it enables us to help you, the good candidate, get a job.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the implication, the implied backside of that story is that it helps weed out potential jackasses.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sometimes it's not obvious. Most people think my wife is, uh, I think I get a lot of people saying she might be Filipina. But she's not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They could get the answers to pretty much all of that. Especially because that probably includes whispers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What if it doesn't though? Let's say it doesn't. Let's assume, let's assume, let's, let's give the benefit of the doubt. Let's say it doesn't include whispers. Okay? So let's say it only includes public chat, but by the time you post that information on a public server,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so let's, let's hear from the viewers. This is split pretty much right down the middle. We've got 53% of you saying it's okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Riot has the right to know what you- and you know what, it might be in their EULA somewhere. Riot has the right to know before you work for them,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's our neighbor. What you posted on their privately owned servers. Which is an interesting point.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Riot probably has terms in their EULA that entitle them to ownership of everything that gets posted in much the same way that LinusTechTips.com owns anything you post on it. Through the end-user licensing group.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right, but you knowingly and willingly posted that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With maybe you figured you were anonymous, but you weren't, according to the end-user license agreement, you willingly and knowingly posted that publicly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Says you're not allowed to do that. That's true, they don't. But...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If Riot's company policy is that all employees subject to termination if they fail to comply need to follow the EULA.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it, I don't think it comes down to legality or not legality because ultimately,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can, you can control what an employee posts on your privately owned servers as a company.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like, here's, uh, you know, here's the value up to which you can accept a dinner from someone. Here's this, that, that, that, that, and that. Uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, you know what's funny is I have actually kind of talked myself into it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, but even outside of that, because while I, cause we've talked about this before, and I don't remember what stance I took, but you know, whatever. Viewpoints change.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Especially if it's a third party. So if Riot was saying you have to provide your Facebook username, because I've heard of employers demanding this. You have to, you have to...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, what's your Facebook? And we intend to look at it. Like, if they demanded that, that's one thing. And that to me is actually very different from demanding to know what potential employees or current employees, because they only did this for current employees and then the potential employees is moving forward now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, but I think that would be more wrong. Anyway.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A gamertag in general feels like it should just be, this is my escapism land.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Roleplaying is a thing. How I behave as a gamer tag shouldn't necessarily be the be all and end all of how someone interprets who I am and what I am as a person.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] TwitchPlaysPokémon says, someone was roleplaying at me real hard in an Overwatch match I played last night.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it might not necessarily be who you are as a person. Yeah. Uhm, okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] TeamViewer confirms number of abused user accounts is...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Significant. Ah, so the original article here is from bleepingcomputer.com.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They apologize, but they still say they were not compromised, which is something that has yet to be actually proven, even though redditors and some blogs out there have offered up some evidence that looks fairly compelling to suggest that they were indeed compromised. So, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Have reliable anti-malware and security solutions in place at all times and enable two-factor authentication. That's what TeamViewer is suggesting. Uhm, there's other stuff that you can do. Uh, the way that I was once compromised, well not, not me personally. I've never been compromised. I'm not compromising.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know what I'm talking about. Anyway, the way the Linus Tech Tips channel was compromised was through a keylogger, uhm, where I did not have two-factor authentication enabled because I don't remember if it was available yet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So through a keylogger, so one of the other ways that you can avoid getting your password sniped by a keylogger is by having something like a password keeper, like LastPass for example.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, so, pretty much the way the attack works is people are breaking into your team viewer, into your computer with team viewer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then they are using, presumably, saved passwords on your computer. Please, don't do that. Uhm, for example, if you have a password keeper,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't understand why this isn't a default option. But actually, while you're in your next security audit, can you run around and make sure everyone has it set to time out after a very short period of time? Make sure your password keeper times out, like for the love of everything that is valuable to you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Time out your password keeper. So what they're doing is they're going into, whether it's you're using Chrome to save your passwords, which by the way is really stupid, uhm, or Firefox to save your passwords, which by the way is even super stupider because it saves it in plain text, in a file, in like, data, roaming, local, whatever it is, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What was I- oh yeaah. So then they're using your safe passwords to drain your bank account and your PayPal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which, there's not a whole lot that, uhm, anyone can do about once it's done, if the action was effectively done by you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, right, we've got a lot of topics left, some of which I really did want to talk about real quick here. Uhm, where'd it go?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, no, I- no, it was like something else, like it might not have actually- Oh, this!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, oh yeaah. Wait, no no, this. Oh, this apparently got rejected.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, okay, well, I don't know why it was rejected, so I'm not gonna go too far into it, but, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe we don't actually have confirmation on whether PayPal is refunding it or not. Ah yea, okay. Nick, Nick is, Nick is filling it in for me. Conflicting reports, okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I was gonna try and tie that in. Well I think that pretty much wraps it up for the WAN show. I do want to do a call out for Airdsports, guys. If you haven't already, uh, check it out over on Vessel. They offer a seven day free trial. Night vision. They offer a seven day free trial.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Where you can see, uh, Linus Tech Tips, Tech Quickie, and Channel Superfun content seven days ahead of time, uh, as well as a bunch of other creators. And it should also be noted that NerdSports, uh, all five episodes of which are up there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They really let me down in a big way. So, thank you very much guys. Uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, are restarting due to some technical difficulties, so you'll have to bear with us. We've got a lot of great topics for this week. The HP Elite X3 leaked. A Hollywood hospital succumbs to a hacker... to a hacker. And the federal judge orders Apple to help the FBI decrypt...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There are a lot of things I like about Windows 10, but there are certainly some that I do not. Okay! So let's kick this off. For those of you watching live on Twitch who are wondering what the heck just happened there where I was literally mid-sentence.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Literally not touching anything. Well, that was my life, in a nutshell. I stand here, totally innocently, hands off everything, doing absolutely nothing wrong, and boom, stuff dies. So,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For some reason the shroud is like this. Oh wow. Which is not a thing that it was like before. So that's confusing. Uh, this is a 550 Ti. Um, that is no longer good. So I'm gonna go ahead and, you know, find out what's inside it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's holding this piece on? And I don't understand what made this piece fall off.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But the thing about that is that it hasn't been touched since it was installed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And no one ever touched a graphics card that hardcore. Right there. There we go. Oh yea, so they clip onto the heatsink itself, I guess. So let's just... Had enough of your crap, 550 Ti!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe that's part of the problem. Maybe sometimes I just have too much faith.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In, in hardware's ability to be like only sort of dead. I should just kinda go, okay! We got one driver crash. That's it. Time for the bin. Uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Also I'm sitting in a chair that some moron tilted the base of it like way back so I'm like


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sitting with my legs up like this basically.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In like, my body's in like a V shape, and it's making my back hurt, so I'm in a totally foul mood today, but that's okay, because it's all about you guys, and we have a stream to do, so dammit. Everyone in the Twitch chat was- Are doing a stream. Virtually hugging you. Were they virtually hugging me? Mhm. Thank you. You know what? Twitch chat, you should.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, so federal judge orders Apple to help the FBI decrypt the San Bernardino killer's iPhone 5C. Apple responds with an open letter to their customers that is obviously also intended to address the FBI's demands. So this was posted originally by blaze756 in the forum.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm gonna go ahead and pop up that message, a message to our customers on apple.com.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The United States government has demanded that Apple take an unprecedented step which threatens the security of our customers. We oppose this order which has implications far beyond the legal case at hand because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But, Apple makes a good point. What the FBI is effectively asking them to do is build in a back door. So they, they, they're asking Apple to make a new version of iOS, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] circumventing several important security features and then they want to install it on an iPhone recovered during the investigation. So in the wrong hands, this software which does not exist


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So Apple actually made a choice in 2014 to remove itself from being able to access encrypted devices. So that means if, you know, uhm, grandpa...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, Joe and grandma Jill or whatever, one of them dies and the other one can't get into the phone or the iPad, Apple straight up cannot decrypt the device.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, you know, there's a lot of arguments to be made on both sides. Personally, I totally respect that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think respecting the user privacy is the right thing for Apple to do, especially in the context of what their competitors are doing, whether it's Microsoft or Google, where it's all about collecting customer information. Collect, collect, collect, monetize, all that stuff. I think that's one of Apple's truly differentiating points in the marketplace today.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Everyone loves to bring up the fappening, uh, but that was not...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That was, that was social engineering, allowing people to get their hands on someone else's data, which, which they're honestly, no, no amount of, nothing Apple can do can, can prevent that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, yeaah, see, it's already Twitch chat, it's like woo woo woo.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, we know. We know. People are like, Luke looks so tired. I am tired. Yeah. I don't even understand why it's been such a long week.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like it just has. Everything I've done has just been hard this week.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anyway, back to the, uh, the Apple thing. Apple has several days before it has to file a formal response. Uhm, the Justice Department says that Apple's defense of encryption is just a marketing stunt, which I totally


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do not agree that that is the case at all. And if neither side is happy with Apple's response, the case will be escalated to the Court of Appeals for the 9th Circuit and could escalate as far as the Supreme Court, taking up to several years. This is great. Donald Trump, you are the man.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, Donald Trump calls for an Apple boycott until they respond, uh, until they decrypt the phone, basically. It's like, okay, A, you've clearly shown that you


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Don't understand what the larger issue is here. And B, uhm, I think that's about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I genuinely, I genuinely think that there is a very good chance he will be president though.

[Assistant] We'll see. I-I truly do. I don't know enough about American politics. Speaking of uh, presidential candidates, this was posted by Sam Fisher on the forum. Original article here is from the BBC.

[Assistant] And, uh, John McAfee has offered to decrypt the phone, says he only needs three weeks, and he will use social engineering in order to do so, and, um,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He is also, I didn't even know this, but also apparently running for president as a libertarian. What? Yeah, uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hold on a second, let me just, uh, so if you guys don't know who John McAfee is, you probably should, you know that annoying software, which by the way, he has nothing to do with anymore, he left the company ages ago, but that McAfee software, that's him, he made, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, commercial antivirus for basically the first time, I think, is his sort of claim to fame.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, I mean, he's got the, at least he's got some of the right ideas here though, that's for sure. He's keen to unlock the device himself because he doesn't want Apple to have to implement a backdoor. And I mean, this is a really good point from Tim Cook.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he says the government suggests this tool could only be used once on one phone, but that's not true. Once created, this technique could be used over and over again on any number of devices.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In the physical world, it would be the equivalent of a master key, capable of opening hundreds of millions of locks. Uhm, no reasonable person would find that acceptable. And I agree with him 100%. Apparently so does John McAfee. Uhm...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So he basically says IF Apple creates this tool and implements this backdoor, it will be the beginning of the end for America. That's maybe a little wrong. Which is...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That might be a little much, but uh. Maybe a little bit sensationalist, but uhm, it says also that he will eat his shoe on television if they can't break the encryption on the phone. Uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So there's that. Anyway, here, here's the McAfee 2016 page, just in case you were curious. I don't think, uh, I don't think anyone is actually planning to vote for me. Look at this picture. Why is this website so bad? I don't, I... What the heck? Uninstall the system.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wow. Wow, that looks horrible. Pretty sure this is a joke. I may be wrong though, cause I legitimately, I legitimately hadn't heard that he was running.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I legitimately cannot possibly believe that this is true. I'm sure that Twitch chat is, uh, I'm sure Twitch chat is exploding right now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But, uh, got people saying I'd vote for him. I'd vote for McAfee.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, alright, settle down, alright? Everybody needs to just settle down, okay? Thank you. I hate this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I hate today, I just want to go to bed. Yea, today's not good. I just want to go, go to sleep and be done with today, which I'm not going to be able to do because I need to fix that server after work today. So uhm, alright, this is good. This was posted by Regnorock Dell.

[Assistant] My back is so sore from sitting in this chair like this. You wanna switch? No, it's okay. Because I want the pain right now. Because the pain will fuel my anger.

[Assistant] So the Pentagon orders Windows 10 to be installed on all four million of its PCs by 2017. So if your company hasn't yet upgraded to Windows 10, your IT department is quickly running out of excuses, actually.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I can think of a lot of excuses. Uhm, should we take turns coming up with excuses? You want the low hanging fruit? Go for it. Search? Yea, go for it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, I've got- This is a fantastic demo. This is my favorite Windows 10 searches. Terrible. And this is- This is- I'm talking when-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The start menu opens. We've got a couple machines here in the office that have issues with the start menu even opening, like- Oh yes, yeah. Uh, it's a global thing. I know. On my machine upstairs, what I usually have to do to search for something is click Cortana once.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then click it and Skype, what part of what I did sounded like I'd like to talk to you right now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, so what I have to do is I have to click it once, and then again, and then I can click the start menu and I can get that open.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so get this. Okay, so this is a great tool, Rufus, uhm, for creating bootable thumb drives. So, alright, you've got a lot of great suggestions here. Uh, Rufus, Rufus Wainwright, yeah, I heard there was a secret chord that Microsoft played and it made their start menus work internally, so they apparently aren't aware of these bugs. Uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just playing Rufus, uh, here we go, Rufus USB, Rufus and Murdog, whatever that- Oh, look at this! Oh, it did find a search result on my computer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's weird. Why did it find the folder? BUT NOT THE EXECUTIBLE!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright. Anyway, so, this'll be the largest deployment of Windows 10 since it's released six months ago.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And represents a huge milestone for Microsoft because if there is anyone that it is difficult to get to upgrade their Windows operating systems, it is the military. So the funny thing about this is a lot of the machines being upgraded are going to be Windows XP machines.
