[Assistant] One thing that I really like that I got a call out here is Jonathan Morrison as well. These guys like kinda teamed up for these videos, so they both have a call out to each other at the end of each other's videos, and their videos compliment each other. So if you're interested in Chip Gate, check out Austin's and Jonathan Morrison.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, 14 nanometer from Samsung and 16 nanometer from TSMC. And it's, this is, the chip gate is already on Wikipedia.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then they did things like, oh, I took a time lapse for a while, or I like recorded a video for 10 minutes, which is not unrealistic at all. So they both did more real life stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The, the binning thing might not completely apply here. Uhm, it applies to everything to a certain degree. But like, it's, I think it's beyond that by a fair amount.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know. I already don't like battery life on like everything. This phone is actually a pretty good exception. I can often get a day and three quarters or maybe even two days if I really drag it out on the second day and like try not to have the screen on too much. Uhm, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anything that's gonna screw with my battery life on a phone that honestly doesn't have that great battery life already, I would probably be pretty pissed off.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't, like, setting up a new device does not take that long for me. Nope, it doesn't anymore, it used to. So, if I had a Samsung chip, I would actually return it, yes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If it's just not as good as the other one, then no, I'd just try to roll and gamble and get it eventually. Like, I'd just return it and then if that didn't work, just return it and then whatever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did anything happen with the RAM thing, 3.5 gigs versus 4? No, I don't think so. See, something maybe should have happened.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you wanna segue from that to more things about equality and equal chance and slamming on Nvidia a little bit more?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Something that I don't think is in the dock, but should have been.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So basically, what's happening is game-ready drivers will no longer be downloadable through the Nvidia website, uhm, which is...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, email address verification required to be able to download anything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's not like you can't filter the crap out of your email, so they just go into a dump folder immediately. Yes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You just got a new graphics card. You didn't have an Nvidia graphics card before. You just wanna play some games. You show up at your buddy's house, you're gonna install the card and then have a little land between the two of you. You install your card, he's already kinda playing and you're just like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, come on, okay. I downloaded G-Force Experience. Okay, now I have to type in my email. Now I have to verify this. So you have to go to your email, click on the thing, verify the thing. Okay, now I can actually download the driver. Okay, now I probably have to restart. It's just obnoxious. Like there's so many more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And like, for people that already have GeForce cards, like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright. Pretty rough. Don't like it. Very annoying.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anyways, Tesla cars can drive themselves starting October 15th. They, that's a little bit sensationalist.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In a straight line. They can, uh. Sort of. Well, a little bit more than that. They can switch lanes and stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you turn your turn signal on, then it's like, okay. So basically...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's like super badass cruise control. Someone described it that way. That's not me saying that. I'm copying them. I don't remember who it was. But it's basically like the sickest cruise control. They're officially saying right now you're supposed to keep your hands on the wheel. You're not supposed to let go of the wheel. And I would highly recommend that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, it's auto steer, it's gonna keep you in the lanes, it'll check for side collisions, it can turn for you if you turn the turn signal on, all this kind of stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I love how there's beta features for a car, it's so dangerous. Uhm, I believe this is version 7.0? Something like that, yep. Yeah, 7.0. So 7.1 will make it so that it can like drive out to a garage and then come pick you up. But, yeah, is that even in here? Yep, that's in here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, okay, so 7.1 will be able to drive off to your garage and come pick you up when needed, which is super sick. Uhm, but yeaah, they're being very clear that like, if problems happen, it's still totally your fault. So...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's interesting. I watched a video and it's a little creepy because the guy goes over like a fairly substantial bump. I don't know if it's like a pothole or what it is because the camera's on the inside of the car so I can't see what's on the road.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But uhm, like, the car jumps a little bit, and you can tell, like, it went over something, it wasn't the car just jumping, and the car is, the, the wheel is like, oh, oh, oh, oh, okay. And like, the, the car doesn't jostle around, but it, it does just amount the correction that it probably needed to, and it picks everything, and the guy in the car is like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Exactly. Like there's, there's other stuff you can do though. I don't know. I think the VR space is going to be huge for people upgrading PCs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know it's sponsored by Lenovo. In basically every single one of those situations that laptop that you're testing out would have been better. Cause it's more rugged. Wow. That's pretty brutal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why didn't they come to us for this? We could have done so much better.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And like the music, they play the music in the cockpit, no one would use a full laptop for that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, you'd have a phone and then that would talk to the helicopter which would then broadcast that to your headset.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it's okay. Switching from, I came from TELUS and I've very vocally said many things about TELUS, so it's not like I love them, but my reception is slightly worse with Belle. It shouldn't be, they share towers. Really? Yeah. It's noticeably slightly worse in certain areas.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's really weird. It's worse at my parents' house and it's worse at- Actually, that's not true. It's worse in one part of my house and it's better in the other.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That could totally be it, because like I said, in part of my hosts where my phone straight up didn't work before, it now works. But in the rest of my hosts, it's like, it usually works, but it's kind of sketchy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's pretty brutal. I'm happy that this dude was angry enough to figure it out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And like, like Linus said, what, at the beginning of the show, or in the, in the, in the announcement? I don't even know what it was in, but- I don't even know what day it is. The 1.25 million dollars, which is like, uh, just under a million dollars US, I think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So like they got their review a little bit higher and that might have even helped them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oregon, Oregon. But it was above the line, wasn't it? We were staying in Portland and then it was up above, was it not?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause it was actually somewhere else. We were staying in Portland, we took a bus.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which arguably might make sense for certain websites. If you're making like a kids crafts website store, which is possible on Squarespace. Are you gonna straw pull this? If you're making a kids website that is designed to be like a store or something, could Comic Sans not make sense there?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know we hate on it, but I think it might work in certain scenarios. I think it might be fine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We do not, uh, our, our views are not necessarily shared with aforementioned sponsors.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, we wanted to watch a, what was it, Key and Peel. I wanted to watch something from Key and Peel on YouTube. And it's locked off from Canada. And I was like, I just wanna watch one video. Come on. It's on YouTube. Uuuh. So I installed Tunnel Bear.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Your Tunnelbearer notes got wrecked. Quick, type Tunnelbearer into the browser bar.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, people use it for like gaming, like if you're really good and high ranked and you make a new account so you can play against crappy people, they call it smurfing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe both? I think the new kids call it smurfing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, kinda, yeah. No, the idea I think with smurfing is just creating a new one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think sandbagging is more if someone has a high ranked account and then they repeatedly lose on purpose.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This super sucks. Not only do I like him as a person, having him on the show and talking to him outside of the show and stuff, but I literally watch everything he releases.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had talked to him at shows as a fan without him knowing who I was, I think.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It reminds me of, uh, sniff. It's not sniff, but it reminds me of sniff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So in the chat was like, I don't like Luke. One time he forgot who the actor who played Han Solo was. I don't like Luke either.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So this is the second one. So that was what? That was voters pick? I think this is now the, like, mod teams pick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, so this is the, like, uh, like wild card got picked because holy crap what the hell system.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah. Well, I mean, you'd only really use one of them. But!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look at how inferior these ones look. Museum archival purposes. You know what my favorite part is too, is all the PC components like color match the board and stuff. And then it's like, oh, green grossness.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At launch. And now you can like, kick its ass. Like, all this CraftYard Wars stuff that went down. When you guys see the new one...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's even like, yeaah. I don't know. The result is very cool.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're amazing. We already know everything about it, next time we have to cover it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think we should only cover Kickstarter stuff. Then we only have to prep a show twice a month.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I really want it to be real. I super do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's just the worst shot video like ever. Why is it so green?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anyway, uhm. There's no audio if I remember correctly. The video on YouTube has ratings disabled and comments disabled.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Someone, someone just said, Scrapheed Wars 3 should be 4, cause 3's already coming out. But Scrapheed Wars 3, make a laser razor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wasn't that already a technology? Are they claiming that they invented?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's fix it in post, this is the greatest camera that's ever existed because I can fix it in post even better. Augh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The UoLTT, or uhm, the originally unofficial, that's what Uo came from, Linus Tech Tips starts as a conglomerate, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is going to be having a tournament thingy. There's gonna be giveaways based on your performance in the tournament. The first giveaway is a $25 gift card, the second place is a $10 gift card, and the third place is a $5 item from the pledge store. Uhm, even if you show up, it's just supposed to kinda be fun, so don't worry if you're not very good at shooting and blowing stuff up, like me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm usually good at flying spaceships and spaceship games, and I'm really bad at it in Star Citizen, so, oh well. Uhm, yeah, there's a thread on the forum, you should go there, just look up Operation Brawl Star Citizen Giveaway, and you will find it, it's from Napper198, go check it out, go join, it should be fun.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How bad do you think the most is? Cause some people are just like, atomic over the most having the charging thingy on the bottom.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that is the whole point of this topic, is that Hundle Bundle has let go of 20% of their staff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which is 12 people. Uhm, the CEO admits that uhm, it was a little bit of an overly eager expansion, which is probably completely true.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and this is largely to do, this part isn't in the notes, but this is largely to do with, well, back in the day, we used to call out every one of their bundles because they were sick. And they're really not that sick anymore. At the very beginning,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't actually know I'm not in the company from, but from as far as I can tell the small amount of things that they do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because they realize how actually, like again, I'm not in the industry so I don't know, but how easy it probably is. A lot of these indie guys are gonna want to be on these bundles. So if you're like, hey, bundle, they'll be like, okay, yes, please.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, the unthinkable has happened. Radeon and GeForce, together in DirectX 12.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's the only correct way to use a Gordon Freeman crowbar. Good call. Alright, thanks guys, see you next time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You might not know this, but things got worse. Welcome to the WAN Show, we're only half an hour late. What is this music? And his laptop has audio.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe not. I think there's really good contenders, but this is pretty badass.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 30 seconds to a minute. And like the least important part.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, basically. Uhm, the people site that we smashed on last week, and honestly I thought of a ton of reasons why it was even worse later on after the show, uhm, has apparently kinda disappeared, but the creator is still moving ahead with the release.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, that, that, like, there's a fail or not fail for me. And if you fail, you just failed. I don't care if it was close, you just still failed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is something I was wondering about. I was actually going to pitch this to you as a Line of Sectives video. Again, I've done this before. It's probably a terrible idea. I'll just pitch it to you on stream. We'll see what you think. Uhm, I was thinking about like, OTG extravaganza.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah. Well no, cause you're in class, you could plug it into the wall.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You wanna make quick techie friends in school, bring a power bar. I'm not even kidding, that's all you need. Anyways, sorry. But I thought it could be fun, just like, what is the extent you could go, and with like modern pretty fast phones that you could have word processors on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think that's what people in chat were kind of looking for and I understand that too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Facebook has a new universal Windows 10 app. That's honestly basically all I have to really say there. Uhm...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah. It'll work on all your Windows 10 platforms, and everyone just uses Windows 10 computers. So, yeaah. But, if you get like, a tablet or a phone, it'll work on there too. It's just so boring.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know. If they don't have a heart rate monitor, then...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Don't buy it as a fitness device because there's a huge amount of stuff that can count your steps. Like you can get like a couple dollar things that you just reset every day that can count your steps. You don't have to spend like hundreds of dollars on this crap.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're not, they're not trying to sell them to geeks. No, not, not specifically. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because like, there's a lot of people that buy- Does anyone else give a crap? Wearables that aren't geeks, yea. Okay. Yea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like I have friends of mine that aren't geeks that want to get a fitness wearable. Would they buy a Microsoft band? It's Microsoft, probably not. But Microsoft is probably trying to get there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh my god, we have to do something for, what, what, when does Halloween happen?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On the 31st? Oh my goodness, no, on Saturday, I was wondering what day. Oooooooooh. So, so we have to do it the 30th, the day before. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wanted one so bad, and now there's no way I'm gonna get one. Hololens, dev kits, $3,000. I don't even have to look at the doc to know that. It's just, ugh, so expensive.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They just completely shut up about it and then now they're talking about it and I want them to shut up again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Find some way to make it cheaper. Apparently Colton's gonna figure out Halloween stuff for us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Incorporating silicon cylinders approximately 100 microns in diameter to improve heat transmission.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When things are presented at IEEE, you see them in a while.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 147 millimeters per minute. The liquid-cooled FPGA operated at less than 24 degrees Celsius, which is pretty crazy. That is so cool. They don't talk about


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What that FPGA was doing. Or what is actually dissipating the heat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He made a Twitter account, which was immediately official, so this was obviously planned, which is probably smart. One thing I was wondering about is does he have a login method just for him?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anyways, uhm, he had like a huge amount of followers already. He's following one thing, and it's the NSA. Hilarious.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anyways, so yea, apparently they can be hacked into with just one text message, then used to spy on their owners, as he said. Uhm, the Government Communications Headquarters, GCHQ, has a set of tools called the Smurf Suite. There's...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Kind of hilarious. There's three of them. First one is Dreamy Smurf, lets the phone be powered on and off. Nosy Smurf, which lets spies turn the microphone on and listen in even if the phone is off. And Paranoid Smurf, which hides the fact that the phone has been taken over.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Apparently Snowden says that the MSA has spent one billion dollars on similar tools. That's where your taxpayer money's going.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I thought it might be super good once we're able to do that due to like encryption and all this other kind of stuff, but...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is kind of- And, like, the idea is if you mess with the data, it will change the data. So if you try to read it and you're the wrong person, I believe, it will actually change what the data is. So if someone tries to break into your encrypted whatever, it won't matter. It will suck, cause if you try to read it later on, it'll be changed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But, it's kinda like the idea of like having your phone wipe itself if it gets red too many times. Like, that's actually a good thing. I had to turn that feature off because I have children.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Give me a break. It's actually not a bad representation. You can go look it up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you want to know more about quantum anything, you should probably look more deeply into it than like a couple second description on a land show.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hoardray is still planning to release the app pushing its release date from November to next week. Probably just because how much people have been talking about it, you gotta jump on that hype train as much as you can. Adjustments to the app include individuals cannot be reviewed without their permission, which is probably a good idea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, no way to make a negative review at all, apparently, and review must be approved before it is posted.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So basically, it's just gonna be a circle jerk of everyone telling each other that they're great, cause nothing else is gonna get approved, uhm, unless people wanna be self-deprecating about it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Emily Laidlaw, a University of Calgary assistant law professor says the app could potentially have huge legal ramifications for its creators, which is super not surprising. She also states that in Canada, if you run an app or you're hosting a website and you are informed that you're carrying content that is defamatory,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, you have, you now have knowledge and you have control, so you risk liability if you don't take the content down.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That being said, they probably won't run or host it in Canada. So that probably doesn't matter, but they could! There is actually one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Good hosting company in Canada that I know of, maybe a few more than that. Uhm, so, who knows. I don't know. I can't really open another topic. So, let me try. Uuh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Give me one second. What we're going to talk about as Linus comes back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, can you open that topic? It's hard, like, around the mic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To be fair, I heard you talking and didn't read it and heard 7inch and was like, why does he care? 17inch makes a little bit more sense.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's cool because it's 510 ppi on a 17 inch screen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Time, no. I know, a bunch of people are saying that. No. I can't. No. Many people are saying that. Why would that work?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People are still saying RCA. The Twitch chat is great.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Also, I can't believe that you didn't think of having 60 different VGA connections together.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The old one that they announced at CES this year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I broke it a little bit, but it, it usually, like that was, that was a pretty good, just, it, it popping out doesn't work as well as it used to. Yeah. It going back in is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So does this mean you wouldn't have to have insurance?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So it's frustrating and that's a huge problem with self-driving cars in general. So it's cool that these guys are actually standing up. Uhm, I would like to see everyone else, uh, everyone else that's making self-driving cars do the same thing, although proving that it was properly in self-driving mode.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't think they'll have a problem doing that, but they also need to properly defend their own cars.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We saw this problem with Jeep and all that kind of stuff. The only ones doing it properly right now are Tesla. If everyone takes the same stance as Tesla, I'd be okay with that. But if people just leave giant holes in the security of their vehicles and they go like, well, it's illegal.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You unfortunately probably can't get beautiful.com. That domain is probably taken.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think the last time there was a sponsor, I was like, tons of you would be interested in this, because small time computer repair, or computer building, or IT work, or, or, or, or.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] One thing that I have to say is the, with Logitech Gaming Software, with the Dolby Surround Sound thing, what I do actually like about that is that it has Dolby Surround Sound and DTS, and you can have either one of them on, or you can have them off.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because I do know that there's some people that wouldn't want that touching their sound. Yep. So you can just turn it off. So...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How they made it video where I have a very very short comment on the end about how I thought they were.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I didn't want to comment on it in depth, and I'll say basically the same thing here, which was I didn't have direct comparative data to things that I use all the time, and I didn't have the music that I use all the time, so I can't like very accurately say exactly how they sound, but I was pleasantly surprised for a gaming headset.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I didn't, if you put it on and didn't tell me it was a gaming headset, which you can hide the mic very well, so you might have been able to convince me, I wouldn't have immediately thought it was a gaming headset. Which is like, pretty good praise.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was just gonna bring that up. That's usually a per case thing. Usually only the really big actors get it. And it's like, I think probably, I'd say that it's probably less common now due to


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People seeing how ridiculously epic it was, like, didn't, didn't, uhm...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't necessarily think that it's fair that that is a guarantee in every single contract.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Every single voice actor that I hire is gonna get a performance bonus for every 2 million copies of the game that I sell. And for games that try to strive for having every single one of their characters having an individual voice actor, which is


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Awesome! That is super cool when you're playing a game that everyone you talk to sounds different. Right. I wouldn't want to pay them each individual one of them out, unless it's like 50 cents per, which they probably have some extra lines saying that it has to be a certain percentage or whatever. Right. So, I don't know. That makes me a little bit uneasy. Uhm, but I do think the ability to request it should be there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, like, there's, there's pretty big names that do these voice acting things, and I'm sure they could pull for leverage on that if they really wanted to. I don't know if I agree with it being in every single contract. Having more transparency, super cool, uhm, possibly getting compensated better, you know what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I want really good voice actors, if that helps really good voice actors be a thing, cool.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Really? You do it. There was Skywind. Skywind is like a whole bunch of people are trying to develop for Skywind. And I decided that I would try to do voice acting because they were looking for voice actors to do a whole bunch of different parts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I knew I had like an okay mic. It was the Snowball. Wasn't great. But like they said on the thing that it was one of the approved mics and I was gonna try to get like a ghetto pop filter for it and stuff. And I went through the list trying to pick like, what could my voice work for in here? And I'm like, wow.

[Assistant] Nothing. Oh wow. And then like, found something that would work for, did like 80 takes of the one line that I had to do, remembering and listening to that line being delivered from the original Morrowind, and then eventually being like, nope, there's better people, they'll do it, I suck. And moving on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That is how these things work. Some people think math is very easy, and they're probably justified to a certain degree. And some people think art is very easy, and they're probably justified to a certain degree. And some, but not all, of those people don't cross over. Some things are easy for some people, and they're hard for others.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Both of the things you said both have math involved. Plumbing and drywalling both have math involved.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mercedes-Benz, Honda, Mazda, and Mitsubishi.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Last week, uh, woah, I'm gonna fail at saying a bunch of these.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is it Renault? Renault, Nissan, Hyundai, Citroen, Fiat, Volvo, and Jeep are all added to the list last week.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you have a chocolate bar, and there's no other chocolate bars that are exactly like that chocolate bar, and you charge $50 for that chocolate bar, it's probably still overpriced.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But then if the value's in the gold and there's a reasonable amount of markup, then it wouldn't be overpriced. Right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not necessarily. I wasn't saying that the phone you are talking about is even overpriced. That wasn't my argument.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because it might be worth the value because there's, like I said, technologies that are in it that are better than the other ones. So it should cost more because they invested in it and they made it better and then they should charge more for it. That's how markets work. But saying that something is overpriced solely because you're comparing it to one other thing, that you can look at it from more angles than that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You were saying that you, you determine if something is overpriced by comparing it to... Something.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If I offer a stick that happens to have


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's what I'm saying, so if it has an NVMe device in it, it's not in the other one, it's fine, but you don't have to compare it to another phone that doesn't have it in it. You have to compare it to what made up the phone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But they- they- that's because they're... ignorant.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because there's R&D teams, there's distribution, there's manufacturing, there's- there's- Yeah, I know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The, the, how you were like lining up your phrase was not right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're saying everyone's wrong because everyone compares overpriced this thing saying it's overpriced because of whatever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which totally makes sense, because in computers, if you're making a computer for someone who wants to do a lot of the things that you're gonna be doing on a phone, not everything, I know, but a lot of the things you're doing on the phone, a lot of times in SSDs they're biggest upgrades.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wanna talk about something that we used to hate and that is...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This was like, ah, I didn't, my brain is like, not okay with accepting this, but EA looks like they're doing cool things.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Any microtransactions in the game, they're saying that for sure, but they're saying it probably won't have paid DLC, so I'm gonna go with there's probably gonna be paid DLC. And car customization is like huge and expansive and awesome and it looks like an old Need for Speed game and that makes me really excited.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Every time I played a Need for Speed game back in the day, I was like, wow, this storyline's terrible, and I love it. Cause that's not the point.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I wanna not feel bad for skipping cutscenes ever, and I just wanna go into some crazy race, and then have cops chase me for no reason, and then have things blow up, and then like-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey! Welcome to the WAN Show! Oh, I'm so disappointed, cause I always try and find, like, uh, uh, uh, just as, as, like a ridiculous screen grab of you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The, the, the WAN show. And like, not everyone could make it, and it was... And then I bailed on Luke like, one hour before the next one after that, which was awesome.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was awful. The equipment wasn't working. The computer wasn't working. That being said.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And it broke and all those things and, and then, and then, and like we didn't have any of our like lower thirds like, you know, where, how would you guys know where to buy all your Linus Tech Chips merch? Or what the name of the show was? Or like our Twitter handles?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Exactly. Speaking of most important information, why is your Twitter handle above mine?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm going full on conspiracy theory. He thinks he runs the Wands Show now. Let's do a straw poll. I wanna know, I wanna know, I wanna know what you guys think of this, okay? It's straw poll time. Technically, in the last month, I've been on the Wands Show more than you. Does Luke run the Wands Show? Okay, so we're going with a yes and no, and a turnip.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I think that, uh, I think that we all know what the, uh, what the answer is to any poll that involves a turnip.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So go ahead, guys. Go ahead, guys. Hit those results. Let's see those results. In the meantime, let's introduce our topics for the day. Yes, we have a fully prepared doc. Luke and I have actually prepped on the topics. Mostly. We're, yeah, uh, 80% for me or so. Yeah, good. Alright, so we're both on the same page.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] An iPhone leak has quote on quote officially, because remember a leak is still a leak, not a, you know, a poo, for example, you know, like a, you gotta take a leak that's not, yea, you know, you're not like, you're not sitting down and pulling out the phone and getting some...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Palmer Lucky, founder of Oculus, says that your computer sucks and is currently in the process of building a propane-cooled personal rig to, uh, presumably game in VR. Although it depends who you ask and it also depends on how seriously you take the sensationalist headline. And take a note of context.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is very interesting. There's a couple of interesting things here. Number one is that 64% of our audience is deluded. Which is fascinating. And number two...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is that the hard cores? Okay, the guys who tune in right at the beginning of the show? Look at that engagement! Yeah. The number of viewers we have versus the number of poll results returned. Is really high. That is incredible! That is. You guys, you guys, you guys are hardcore, you guys are cool guys, and now your cool guys are gonna watch the inc-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, this scene, this scene is being kind of a derp, and I'm having trouble putting the, uh, the, the Squarespace and Tunnel Bear logos that maybe you guys will just have to imagine that you've seen at this point in time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright, so why don't we move into our first topic of the day. It's gonna be a good show for you guys. Uhm, this is actually posted by the CBC and was posted on the Linus Tech Tips forum by- So this was here! The digital doctor, oh yes, oh yes my friend, this was here. So Pembroke parent gets an eight


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So to put this in the correct perspective, we're talking Canadian rupees here, so that's only about 5,000 US dollars. Probably roughly about there, yea. But it's still a $5,000 bill, and uh, do you wanna, do you wanna sort of explain how, what the lead into this was? What the lead into this was? Yea, like how, how do you end up? How do you end up with an $8,000 Xbox bill?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And here's the thing that I really need to understand. Can I, can I hear from some FIFA players? Okay, let's Twitter blitz this. You gotta, you guys blitz us, okay? At Linus Tech on Twitter, okay?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And here, here, this is the, this is the other real killer. This, this puts it, again, it's, it's all about, this is what the WAN show is. Putting it in the appropriate context. While knowing nothing about the story. This was-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What did you buy in a month? That's obscene! For five grand US!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, hold on, let's, let's, let's get on, let's get on this Twitter blitz. Let's get on this Twitter blitz. We gotta, we gotta make this, gotta make this happen thing, okay? Uh, gotta make this happen thing?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so Jack McLaughlin helpfully says packs. Thank you. Thank you. Six packs? Eight packs?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Different game type. FIFA Ultimate Team. Okay? Alright. Ultimate Team Packs. Huge on YouTube. Couple dollars a pack. Okay? Coins and packs. IMO, it's pretty awful. $5,000 bill is stupid. FIFA sucks. CSGO for life. Thank you, Ayush.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Coins for packs, coins for packs, Pokemon cards for your online team. Billions and billions of FIFA coins. So, at what point


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is Microsoft or EA somewhat responsible for building in prompts that are all like, yo, are you sure?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At what point are they responsible? Cause I mean, you look at, look at, look at, look at, in BC, okay, in BC Canada anyway.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The lottery, the lottery, the BC Lottery Association, or whatever that organization is called, is required to spend a given amount of their earnings on gambling, addiction, awareness, campaigning.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Something about this, because going back to this story, Microsoft basically said that there's a setting that prevents miners from making purchases without parents' permission. Xbox responded, said they would look into it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And the credit card company basically said that unless Lance charges his son with fraud, there is nothing they can do. He will have to pay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On something that you're- Actually, you know what, that's a very good point because I have had a credit card since I was 16.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sixteen? Fifteen. Fifteen or sixteen? Pretty early on. As young as you can be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My credit card limit until I was in my early twenties was $500. Yeah, me too. By choice. Me too. Not because I couldn't get a bigger limit. Not because, you know, TD Visa didn't call me and be like, Hey kid, would you like a bigger credit card limit? Yeehaw! That happened.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I mean, here's a little thing that people don't know, is that you can preload your credit card. If you have a $500 limit on your credit card, cause like, I would build computers for people all the time when I was in high school, early university, and what I would do is I would take, I would either collect money from them ahead of time,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or I would take from my checking account if I was expecting payment after the fact, and I would just load into my credit card, which doesn't cost you anything, and then I believe the way that it worked back then anyway is you would have to do multiple $500 transactions


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But you could do them back to back to back, and if the sales rep is nice and patient with you, that's no big deal if you're going into a store to buy some computer hardware or whatever else.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It ain't rocket surgery. And same thing, like if you have a PayPal account that's tied to your credit card, you can use your credit card's overloadedness to overload into PayPal. Like there are ways to work around it if you don't trust yourself, which I wasn't ready to do yet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Self-awareness and logic that's not like, being weak. I've got people saying, I refuse to get a credit card. I don't like the idea of spending more than I have. Then don't spend more than you have.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like I'll, here, I'm gonna be completely upfront with you guys. I have multiple credit cards, personally and through the business, that have limits in the ranges of tens of thousands of dollars each.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you wanna know how much balance I have ever carried over in my life?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The rewards are the bomb! Getting that cash back check! Hey, free- Costco cards! Free money! Are really good!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we're talking, I'm not advocating for like, use your credit card for everything. I personally do, because I'm responsible. But the thing too though is that you have to be responsible. Log into your bank account.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] See, for me, I actually use my credit card for everything, so I'm still only tracking one statement.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Your bank is the ghetto. Your bank is the ghetto! We've had this conversation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There is no- and here's another thing. There is no reason that you can't pay your credit card bill more frequently than once a month. Whoa.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I used to do that all the time because I had a $500 limit. So I'd spend 450 bucks of cash that I had, and then I would go pay it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that I'd be back up to my limit so I could use my credit card to get my rewards. I mean, we're talking grade 4 math here. Okay? Like, we're talking, we're talking addition that you don't even have to do because screw grade 4, we got calculators for that shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It is not a big deal. You just have to be cognizant of what you're doing. You know, it's really funny.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Actually, I want to straw-pull this too, because I want to talk about this. What's easier to overspend?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, I'm gonna get you to elaborate on that because, uh, okay, okay, tell me about this. It all looks the same.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's quick to look at this and go, I have X amount. Yeah, that's color coordinated. That's kind of worthless. There's a bunch of blue in there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Those are literally the lowest denomination bills we have. So, I'm not abolishing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I had someone comment on, do I have glitter in my hair?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, I do. Channel super fun video incoming. I can't really tease it, but let's go to that straw poll for a minute. I want to see those results. So this is interesting, and this actually backs up my experience as well. Because I have since the day I got a bank account, when I was like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 11, or whatever. 10, something like that. So since I was a young kid, when I first got like a savings account,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have always used my debit card for pretty much everything. Like I'm a, I'm like a plastic generation kid. Uhm. Yep, me too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So for me, the only time I would ever take cash out would be when I had the intent to spend it at a place that only accepts cash. Like Craigslist or Richmond. Like Craigslist or yea, the entire city of Richmond. So for me,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cash in my wallet is cash that's already been subtracted from the bank balance for me. So it's like, it's like, it's like free money. It's disposable, it's not real anymore.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This doesn't change my bank balance. Woo!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So it's interesting to see that, that actually more of you are having that experience than people who are like, oh, I can't handle the, I can't handle the credit card, you know, that, that I find that too easy to spend.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's a good point too. PayPal is actually another one. PayPal's easy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That one click. Amazon. That one click with the save credit card.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so as your friend, yo dog, get a new bank, as your boss, I am offering you a $4 a month raise to get a new bank.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, this article was posted, crap, by who? Uhm, blipity-bloopity, someone on the forum, and it's not listed. Okay, so Oculus's Palmer Lucky thinks liquid cooling, uh, digital trends, liquid cooling is so 2015 uses propane for his PC gaming rig.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, so basically, the guy- the dude's just like a cool techie dude.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He's experimented with liquid nitrogen cooling in the past, uhm, it's a huge pain to work with. I actually don't know if that was a revelation from him or just something that, uh, I mean, that-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, it's really, it's really interesting. You can always tell how, how new.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Someone is. By their suggestion that, oh man, what if you did like a liquid nitrogen cooling PC?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not how it works. Okay, liquid nitrogen. To have, okay, to have, to have a liquid nitrogen cooled PC that actually recycled


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The liquid nitrogen and like, so like recondensed it or something before running it through, I don't know what kind of insulation you'd be looking at to have that. It is not a 24-7 setup.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It is a suicide run benchmark setup. It is not a thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that, that, that computer literally doesn't have, uh, what was it, what was that revelation that I had recently? Uhm, yeah, okay, it's, it's, it's literally, it doesn't have an alternator, okay? To save weight.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was like, oh yea, that makes sense. But it never occurred to me, yea, what would a race car need an alternator for? You start it to start and then that's it, you go, you don't recharge the battery. What are you doing wasting power off the drivetrain? Uhm, so,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So anyway, liquid nitrogen not a thing. About as hardcore as it gets is phase change, with some people going as far as to run like cascading phase change systems where you've got a phase that cools a phase that cools another phase that cools the CPU.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, he's not even actually getting that hardcore, but he's working on a project that would have a small, powerful PC with no heat sinks and fans that would be cooled by liquid propane. This is totally different, totally hardcore in a very different way. So by, by not that hardcore, it's, it's, it's not that cool. Okay, it's very cool. It's not that cold.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There are cascaded systems that can get a CPU under load down to like nearing triple digits. We're talking really, really cold. This is not even that practical.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because, like, you could actually run a system like that 24-7 if you were willing to put up with the noise. This is kind of like the way that we did our mineral oil PC system, where we submerged it in mineral oil for like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not even better performance. Water cooling is literally better than mineral oil in every possible way. Maintenance, time to set up, cooling performance. This is just a cool


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, that's negative, uh, 42 degrees celsius.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's true, actually. Without Lime Tech's help- Sorry, Taryn. Without Lime Tech's help, that rig would not have been a thing, but, uh, you know...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, I like it. Is there a way we can involve six butts?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, excellent. Uhm, speaking of butts, this is a pretty butt idea. This is posted by section 35 on the forum. Original article here is from forums. We're gonna pop that up on screen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alright. Posted by Gordon Kelly on Forbes, iPhone 7 leaks confirm, and this is quote unquote confirm, in fact it says that right on the article, except it's this kind of quote.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, just throwing that out there. Uhm, confirm Apple abandoning the headphone jack. I love the quote-unquote confirm. I like that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a good way to acknowledge, at least it's not the clickbait headline that's like


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Apple! Get rid of the headphone jack! And then you click the article and it's like, maybe. According to like, some dude.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Like, like the Vive pricing thing? I know this was a rejected topic, I'm just gonna bounce you real quick. Okay, no, let's talk about it. Okay, we're jumping off the rails, we're gonna get back to the iPhone 7 leak. Hit that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, but like, Vive at CES is a pretty-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Pretty badass piece of kit I could paint for days.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yvonne didn't get sick. Yeah. On the Vive!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Things can go wrong. That's fair. Especially with a VR headset on. And the butt. And the butt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, so, moving on to, uh, what is this show even about? iPhone leaks?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes. Uh, please mention the giveaway deadline. Do you know what it is? No. Okay. I don't. Okay, we don't know.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, ba-da-da, make it rain Canadian money, cash definitely. Oh, was that it? Was it the Twitter bl- no, I, uh, put a, uhm. Okay, forget it. Moving on to the iPhone 7 leaks. So, basically, here's where we're at.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's a pair of sources within Apple's Chinese supply chain that have independently confirmed that Apple will ditch the headphone jack from the iPhone 7.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was rumored that Apple would completely lose their mind.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And take away the headphone jack, all in the name of making the device slimmer, something that literally no one has asked for, and even Apple, with the Camel Hump battery pack, has acknowledged is not necessarily the right answer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] More than the Beats music service, which is what a lot of folks speculated the Beats acquisition was all about. This might explain the Beats acquisition.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The last couple generations of products from Beats have been markedly better than the earlier ones, which, if you're being honest with yourself, if you own one of them, I'm sorry you paid so many hundreds of dollars for it, it's a piece of garbage.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, like a card in your wallet that says, I'm a cool dude, but...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Take it for what it is. Experts within the audiophile community acknowledge as being actually pretty good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm. But the cable is so danceable. But the ca- I know, danceable cables. I know. Anyway.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So this could explain it because how was Apple going to get support from a major headphone manufacturer?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To move away from the 3.5mm jack. I mean, Apple has asked for leaps of faith before, okay? Wire up your 3.5mm jack so that it works with our volume control and not someone else's, but still, you know, carries sound, regardless of the phone that you're using. Uh, how was Apple going to convince someone to make this leap? Put a lightning connector,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On your pair of headphones, unless they just ran out and acquired the number one largest market share headphone maker in the United States. Which by the way, beats last time I checked, was.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Then again, people paid $300 for Beats by Dre back in the day, so uhm, anyway.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, so the move is apparently, again this is all speculation at this point, uhm, to help Apple engineer thinner new models as well as drive users towards wireless headphones as well, which, wireless headphones are really not...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You'll have to deal with batteries and you'll have to, yeah, so uhm, hm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, again, more rumors. Apple will introduce audio output profiles to compensate for the loss of the headphone jack. Uhm, so we'll set the iPhone 7 to switch between different wired and wireless output profiles, depending on the scenario. And, I guess, yeaah, what is there, what else is there to really, to really say about this? We'll wait and see? Yeaah, we'll have to wait and see.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, the very big picture, the huge picture, there was actually a rumor this week that Apple was, because of regulatory pressure, working on a tool to help users migrate from iOS to Android.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This kind of ties into that, which Apple denied outright. They said, actually, we're working on getting users to migrate from Android to iOS, and it's going great. Uhm...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This to me, like, so, so Apple's, so Apple's philosophy, where it's more, it's all about making it more difficult to get out of their ecosystem, the apps you've invested in, the accessories you've invested in, all these things. If Apple can snag you,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For a longer term purchase, that is a big ticket purchase, then they have effectively locked you into their ecosystem in a way that they actually couldn't before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because even content you've purchased on iTunes, which is a great way to help lock into an ecosystem. Oh, I've got a bunch of movies I can- or I've got a bunch of songs I can only listen to on my iPhone. Well, you can- you can still listen to those songs on other devices. No. No, this is- this is the ultimate. It's like, uh, it's like Nvidia locking you into buying their- cause-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Apple has to fight for the customer every generation.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes. Okay, so Apple probably recognized this in the iPhone 5, 5S, 5C era, where they didn't capture the hearts and minds of the customers as well as they have more recently with the 6S. And...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, they kind of must have thought to themselves, well gee, we have to fight for the customer every generation. We have to keep innovating on what is effectively becoming a block of aluminum and glass that sits in your pocket and has a couple of antennas and you make phone calls and you listen to music and watch movies on TV.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're becoming very commodity. So if Apple can figure out how to, how to have something tied to it that is a separate long-term investment, the phone people are used to upgrading every one to two to three years, but a pair of headphones,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think people believe that they should get five years out of a good quality pair of headphones. So if Apple can sell you a headphone that only really works without an awkward, weird, and or expensive adapter with their phones, then you're gonna have to keep buying the Apple upgrade. It's yet another way to lock you into the ecosystem.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Which I personally find abhorrent because there is no practical reason to do this other than to make the foam thinner and lighter, which nobody asked for. Uhm, you're not gonna get a sound quality improvement unless you go and put like, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I can't, unless you use, unless you use the data connection that is lightning to have a bigger battery-powered amp and DAC in the headphones, but then you're putting a bunch more weight on your head, like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You could make arguments, and, and, and someone, exactly, and someone will come up with something that leverages the lightning connector for, you know, blah, blah, blah, bitrate HD sounds, blah, blah, blah.

[Assistant] I mean, breaking standards that have been standards for literally, you know, decades, and that are just fine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No amount of silver cables or, you know, what other, what other stuff have people tried to do to the quarter inch and the, whatever it is, eight inch?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And like, there were times when I was really wondering if it was the end of the 3.5mm jack. I mean, do you remember for a bit there, the early days of like, Discmans, when every 3.5mm jack failed, within like a year or two on every device, and you always had to like, hold your Discman with your finger pressing the connector, like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah man, I carry my Discman around in my hand cause it's cool. Actually I can only hear in one ear when I don't do this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it's never a problem anymore. Your micro USB port is gonna fail before your 3.5mm jack.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, so our next topic here, another Oculus thing, posted by QGun the forum, and I- I've seen how I've gotten totally- This is such a great headline. Usually ours is a lot more responsible than this. Oculus founder, your crappy PC is the biggest barrier to VR adoption. Okay. This was taken out of context.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so to put it, again, that's what the WAN show is. It's all about putting it back in the appropriate context. Context. Bring it on, cause my system's locked up here for a second here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yep. And, and you know what? That trend has, has actually been going for a while. I mean, subtle things like Nvidia removing their GTX branding.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nothing's definitive, but like, should be like THE excellent showdown on Rift versus Vive. And then I've got something really interesting coming about buying a gaming PC at Best Buy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We literally went with a credit card, Best Buy knew nothing about this, we went and bought a PC, a gaming, we went and asked a sales rep, I wanna buy a gaming PC, what should I buy? And...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was floored to find out that it actually had like a decent graphics card in it. So, so that-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So that trend is already happening. Pushing towards, instead of selling the thing that has a palatable price point, selling the thing that will actually do the job is already happening. And uh, sorry, I'll let you, I'll let you carry on.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Talking about once a crappy PC reaches that level. A crappy PC. So,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the quote was kinda taken out of context, uhm, and he's using the evolution of cell phones and the pricing of cell phones as an example of how that whole thing shook down, where you've got, and cell phones are an example. There's a thousand examples. Digital cameras are another great example, where at the beginning they were like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At the beginning they were very trash, and if you look back to the early days of VR, yep, it was all trash. Oh yeah. And then came, you know, which, for me, the PowerShot A20.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Was like, what happened when I went, okay, a digital camera is actually good enough to be somewhat usable


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I spent like $600 on it. Uhm. And, and, like, where is it? And now, that technology, you know, the PowerShot A20, and much better than the PowerShot A20, is so commodity that it's inside every cell phone.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's the adoption curve. That's what it takes for something to go mainstream to the point where a crappy phone


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is better than what was the $600 Cadillac experience, however many years ago.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For the super rich who also are willing to allocate that amount of their expendable excess income.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, for the super rich or the people who are willing to, willing to take what money they have and allocate a lot of it to this experience.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know. It's really funny because the people posting on the videos are like, yeah, we got it, Squarespace. I'm like, yeah, but like they sponsored the show. We can't just like stop saying it because you personally are tired of it. To be honest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I had fun with it too, like, and honestly, I will tell you guys this, cause some people are like, yeah, you guys gotta like, mix it up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We actually had a meeting, uh, after CES last year, uh, where we were like, okay, maybe what we should do is instead of selling the entire show to one set of sponsors, so we're saying the same thing over and over again, we should have like a different set of sponsors per day. And then what we decided after that meeting was that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's really hard. It's really difficult. It would be really hard to do it fairly, it would be really hard to do it accurately, and we would end up


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Upsetting everyone by getting it, getting it wrong all the time. We'd end up creating a bunch of extra work for ourselves doing pickups because, oh, I screwed up the sponsor spot on that one. And we kind of went, you know what? CES is stressful enough.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, if we can find one guy who's willing to go, yeah, I'll foot the bill for the whole company to go cover the crap out of CES this year, then let's make sure that one guy gets a bunch of exposure for it, everyone's happy, and it was Squarespace.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It makes life easier for us, which makes sure that we can focus on what we're supposed to be doing, which is covering that show.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or whether it's a blog, or a personal portfolio, or whether you just wanna be like a web 2.0 company that has a one page website.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Squarespace has got you covered. But don't worry, if you don't want to have an obnoxious website, Squarespace also has the ability to create lots of other pages that actually explain what your company does and what your product is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you can definitely flesh things out too. And they make sure that, you know, create it with their logo creator and with their, uh, with their ability to, you know, just take images and arrange them and make them look great. Even if you don't have any web experience, Squarespace is the way to go. It's only $8 a month to start and you get a free domain if you buy Squarespace for the year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you can save 10% on your first Squarespace purchase if you use offer code Linus.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know, but it's also such an obvious, like, it's such an obvious offer. It's just like, yep, it's easy to build a website.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And you know what else is an obvious offer? TunnelBear! Yay! If you want to, uh, is TunnelBear is the easy to use VPN app for mobile and desktop. Seriously, mobile and desktop. They've got Android, iOS, PC, Mac, and even a Chrome extension, depending on what you want to, uh, you know, TunnelBear up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And their friendly little bears take all the hassle out of setting up a VPN. You don't have to like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Kind of burpaderp, you know, and you just kind of go, okay, I want to be like as if I'm from Great Britain.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then you press a button and it's like, oh, hey, now you're from Great Britain, uh, welcome to our site, mate, which is actually more of an Australian accent, so don't worry too much about that. I actually have a really hard time turning on one or the other. It actually takes me a little while to get into my groove.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh no, they'll still be upset about that. But in general, like, it would be politically correct, sort of, for me to do an Australian accent. No one's upset about that. But if I were to run around doing a Chinese accent...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No one would like that. That would be wrong. No one would think that that's a good idea. I don't have an answer for you. Yeah, I don't, I don't either. Anyway, so TunnelBear allows you to have the first 500 megs of your VPN access per month for free.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it is. Yeah. Yeah, and I think it's per month. And then, for just a few bucks a month, by heading over to tunnelbearer.com slash WAN, you guys can get unlimited data and you can actually save 10% by visiting this URL as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, I just, it's the stereotypical, like, you know, I'm not racist, I have a black friend, you know, the whole, like, the, the, the, the white people defense. Uhm, no, but I legitimately have a Chinese wife. Okay?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So there you go. And, and, and with that said then, am I allowed?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, I meant politically correct though. If my nuclear family is literally half Chinese, because my wife and all of my kids, actually if any of my kids weren't half Chinese, that would be a serious...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It could be. Cause I would argue that a step kid is a nuclear family. So I could have technically come in with like a half white half ginger kid or something like that. Uhm, so...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So if my nuclear family is half Chinese...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Am I allowed to do the Chinese accent? And... I literally, I don't know. And does this, and does this, this is a Lisa's channel, and does, does the fact that my wife is only really ethnically Chinese and culturally Western, does that affect it?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because she doesn't speak, she was actually born in Brunei, but doesn't speak a lick of Mandarin.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ah, that, that, that. Oh, the problem with overclocking on non-Z chipsets.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, uh, this was originally posted over on Tom's Hardware, and news has recently surfaced that some motherboard manufacturers, notably ASRock and Supermicro, have found a way to overclock Skylake CPUs


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On H-Class chipsets, so cheapo motherboards. And Luke talked about this at CES, there's actually Supermicros doing a giveaway, which Luke hosted, which some of you asked about. Of the whole system. Of the entire system.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As people might have initially anticipated.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, while you can overclock on a non-Z chipset, which Intel has enforced for quite some time, now you're gonna have to have a K unlocked CPU, and you're gonna have to have a Z enthusiast grade overclockable chipset, uh, there are some limitations. So, uh, what do we got here for limitations?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, Asus states that using modded chipsets will also lose support for some instruction sets. Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, hardware modifications and firmware support must be added to work on a chipset like H170 or B150. So this has to be something where the motherboard maker is like


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Asus' take on this is that any non-Z170 boards designed to overclock would have significant reliability issues and could result in numerous CPU and motherboard failures.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, so an ASUS representative basically said that to develop and sell these motherboards to its users would damage its standing among PC enthusiasts and made it clear that it felt producing motherboards with modified chipsets would be a huge liability and that it would be irresponsible and a disservice to its loyal customers.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the Tom's, the Tom's Hardware article is actually excellent. Uhm, so ASRock...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It has two H170 motherboards, and uh, one B150 motherboard, and one C232 chipset motherboard with overclocking features. Gigabyte didn't say much. Uh, MSI kind of expressed concerns about reliability and all that, but, I mean, part of it is like I don't know, like I don't know how seriously to take the reliability concerns, cause sometimes, a reliability concern is just that, a concern.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] As the 800 pound gorilla in the motherboard industry, that's a, that's a pretty safe and responsible approach.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because the reality of it is, there's not a whole lot of ways to differentiate on the motherboard these days because the costs are controlled by factors that are outside of Asus, MSI, Gigabyte, Supermicro, whoever you want to name. I mean, Intel charges everyone the same amount for a chipset. And that dictates that a Z-Class motherboard is going to be over


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And there might have been like AI Suite features that accompanied those boards that made them better.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, okay. The last thing I got excited about that Asus changed was that you no longer have to install AI Suite to use their onboard fan control. So there is still room for innovation. Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so this is supposed to buy N-A-E-A-E-S-N-E-A-S that bit on the forum and, uh, this is really, this is kind of funny because, uh, I'm, I'm gonna be, I'm gonna give you guys an unusual insight into the inner workings of Linus Media Group, where our predator


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 240 and 360 coverage was not very well received, actually by a variety of parties. Some of you complained about it, said we rushed it. We did rush it, by the way. Uhm, said we rushed it. Uhm, EK wasn't happy because they said we rushed it. Well, the plan wasn't to rush it. No, the plan wasn't to rush it. But, the reason it got rushed was that it leaked.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that- It leaked, it leaked, it failed, and we ended up having to get a new unit, and something something, production schedules, etc. deadlines. We ended up having to kind of rush it, and we talked about in the video how it leaked.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, so EK wasn't super happy with our video because...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We were like, yep, it leaked, and then the coverage of the product honestly wasn't as good as it should have been because it leaked and we were in a rush. Sorry. So, this is, this is just kind of funny to me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I like EK, they're nice blokes over there, they helped us with the 7 Gamers 1 CPU project, they helped me with the personal rig update project, they provided the blocks, not only blocks, but like, consultation on making sure that everything was gonna work, and also,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Creating a custom part to make 7 Gamers 1 CPU function that didn't exist before and will likely never need to exist again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We just, we've got the one, and that's all that ever needs to exist because no one should really build a rig like that. Anyway, so I like those guys, but this is kinda funny. They are recalling...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Predator 240 and 360 units that we reviewed because 10% of them leak.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not actually in the way that ours leaked. Nope. In a completely different way. So for ours, one of the fittings didn't seem to be pre-attached from the factory tight enough. Yea, not at all.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And this is actually between the, I believe it's the top and the bottom of the CPU block, uh, O-ring issue, et cetera, et cetera.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. Yeah, that'd be very interesting. I'm sure, like, I'm sure there's gonna be hoops. Like, EK probably wants you to send them the component. There should be some hoops. At the very least.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that's too easy to fake. If I was EK, I would want someone to, with the Predator, that they have to ship back anyway, I would have them put the Predator, and it's a bunch of broken components, so like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, exactly. It's not like it has to be meticulously painstakingly packed. They're broken. I would want that box, I would want it back to them, and then I would go, okay, alright, here's your Amazon credit to go buy it, uhm, or we'll buy it for you, we'll ship you new ones, or whatever. I expect them to do something to figure out how to handle that. So anyway.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, that's been done. That's been done. And Swift Tech again. I love my bros over at Swift Tech a lot, but the, uh, ugh. The Apogee GTX?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, definitely horrible person kind of way. Uhm, Duck Dodgers posted this on the forum, uh, and the original article here is from TorrentFreak.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is interesting. Cracking group warns.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No more pirated games in as little as two years.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So this is from, uh, so the founder of the notorious Chinese cracking form 3DM is warning that given the current state of anti-piracy technology in two years there may be no more pirate games to play. And this comes after attempts to breach the denuvo security protecting Just Cause 3 pushed the group's cracking expert to the breaking point. Dun dun dun. Now, with that said, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot was made of blu-rays copy protection, which, by the way, as someone who...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Believes in paying for content, but also believes in enjoying the content that he's paid for the way that he chooses to enjoy it. I have-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know if I should say this. I have definitely ripped DVD discs and Blu-ray discs that I own.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have definitely done that, those files are definitely on a server for my private consumption.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When and where I feel like I want to consume them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, blu-ray, speaking from experience, a blu-ray disc is about as easy to rip as, you know, using clone DVD back in the day when it was DVDs, where you basically click a button.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, do I necessarily believe that, you know, the Denuvo security protecting Just Cause 3 will never be broken? No.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But what I do believe is that encryption technology is continuing to improve in such a way that we may get to the point where


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tracking games that implement newer security measures all the time may become so time consuming that for people who are actually amped to play the game, like, you know, near the release time,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They might end up just paying for it, because otherwise you could end up waiting three...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Six months, in order to enjoy the game, by which time all your friends might not even be playing it anymore. Because, let's face it, whether we like it or not, gaming has become more about the multiplayer experience than about the single-player experience, by and large. I'm talking AAA gaming, not necessarily like mobile gaming.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So if you take away that social experience, well, what's the point anyway?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So Denuvo is a secondary encryption that actually protects existing and underlying DRM products and another example would be FIFA 2016 which is still protected by Denuvo and was released over three months ago.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is a really interesting reason for something to not end up getting cracked, and if the game's old,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If it's like yesterday's news, then is it inherently not enough demand? Probably. Maybe. Maybe not. Like maybe not.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Aww. I just found out like right before the show. I love Alan Rickman. Yea, I hadn't, I've been just, well yesterday I was completely busy with that super fun and then I wrote and hosted, I wrote one video and hosted two videos. Like that was my day yesterday. I didn't even touch my, my like phone pretty much. And then like today, I don't even know what, oh yea, today I went to a funeral. I think that's one of the


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, Robin Williams kinda hit me pretty hard. Uhm.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But like Alan Rickman. Alan Rickman hit me a lot. Like my favorite movie when I was a kid was Robin Hood Prince of Thieves. I've watched it since as an adult. It's a terrible movie. It doesn't matter.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it's not the point. That movie was like, frickin' awesome when I was a kid. I watched that movie over and over and over again. And like, HE


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, and it's like, it's like, sometimes a defining moment in your life can be a song you listened to or a movie you watched. Uhm, or just like, like a line that was delivered with a, I don't know, it's art, right? Always. It's art, it's intangible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Blood Monkey says that he wrote him a very moving letter when he was having some difficulties when he was younger. That's interesting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And everything that we said before was the same- is the same. Yeah. But the price is lower, so I think you can probably do the math. Again, we're coming back to the grade 4 math here, kids. Okay? Pull out the calculator, they're literally a dollar at the dollar store. Alright? FPS over dollars is how many frames per dollar.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Or it's on your phone. Or it's on your phone, yes. Alright. This is interesting.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Mushkin previews a $500 4TB SSD at CES. Now this is something that I always kind of get my panties in a- in a nod over, is uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Memory companies, and I'm talking RAM memory, I'm talking NAND memory, I'm talking even storage memory, okay? So all, like, even hard drive memory, I know it's incorrect use of the word, but don't worry about it, it's not the point.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Previewing a capacity bump, so a capacity of storage or RAM or whatever, at a given price, but it's not available yet. Because I could do that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I could literally show you an empty box that's a 10 terabyte hard drive at $100. Release date TBD. And eventually, I can deliver that. Thank you, Moore's Law.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] However, there is some technology that went into this that is somewhat interesting. So,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Basically what this is, is it's an update to their reactor series of SSDs that now supports 3D NAND and drive capacities up to 2 terabytes, uhm, thanks to a new controller.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now, they are taking that updated controller, and they are actually putting it together with another, uh, like another separate controller that is gonna run two of those other controllers in a JBOD, which stands for, literally it stands for, just a bunch of disks. Which they might have to upgrade the term.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah. Well, mmm. Just a bunch of drives. Just a bunch- yeaah. Hmm. Okay, anyway, uh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, it's a four terabyte drive, but...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So in theory, the way a JBOD works is that data is just kinda stored on wherever and if one drive dies, all the files that were on that drive are gone, but the other one is completely left independent of the other one.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it's basically like if you had like a bunch of USB thumbsticks, and you like duct-taped them all together, plugged them all in at the same time, and then assigned one drive letter to all of them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And with crappy performance. So Mushkin says to expect somewhere in the neighborhood of read and write performance of about 10k IOPS, which to be clear will still crush a hard drive, uhm, and with that kind of a price for something like bulk media storage, uhm, Games! Game storage. I wanted it for games. Could be freaking awesome.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There you go. To be clear, this is not as good a drive as something like that Samsung 3.84 that is on Vessel and not on YouTube yet that we checked out recently where it's got a single controller, it's enterprise grade drive,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But, it is really, really cheap. 25 cents a gig, like $500 is still really expensive for a single component in like an enthusiast grade rig.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But it's also not completely outside of the realm of somewhat doable. Yeah. It's not $2,000 like that Samsung drive I just referred to. So, uh, love it, but it has to actually come out, Mushkin. So, yeah. That was posted by Rani on the forum, by the way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. I mean, to be clear, this is not the first time that something like this has happened. It's not the last time something like this will happen for either Intel or AMD.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, but it's a bummer and there will be a BIOS update which unfortunately doesn't help people who have systems that get crappy BIOS support or who have like OEM systems where the BIOS update is like difficult to do for no apparent reason and that kind of sucks. Uhm, but basically it's causing crashes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, I don't really know what else to really say about that. The Intel has already given the updated code to their partners. You just have to wait for the Asus's and Dell's and Lenovo's of the world to implement them. And no one's really given a time frame on that. Yes. So yeaah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is the next level of like, of like, you know, ballin' Twitch streamers, where they actually get to the point where they can just have someone like, that they pay to- Read them the Twitch chat. To read them the Twitch chat, yea.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm really focused on the game, I'm calling in Jeeves to deal with Twitch chat for me. Jeeves, what does the red text say? Tell me what's highlighted, Jeeves.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Actually, this is interesting. Posted by Mr. Troll. Original article here is from overclock.net. It's just a post on the forum. AMD has begun shipping around samples of two different


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Polaris architecture chips, so four different GPUs, basically a full-fat, looks like the top tier one, and then a cut down top tier GPU, so that would be your equivalent to, you know, uh, R9 Fury X and an R9 Fury kind of thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then the, what looks like some kind of a step-down, but full-fat, and then a cut-down version of that, uh, presumably some kind of a like, you know, a 380x type of grade GPU or something along those lines. It's gotten really grey with AMD because they've reused previous flagships.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That doesn't mean that they're coming out like tomorrow. That means probably sometimes second half this year. Which would not be a surprising timeline at all. Yep. But what's cool is that for the first time in a long time, both AMD and Nvidia are gonna be delivering like, probably, this is my speculation, but it's based on facts that do exist, uh, rockin' GPU upgrades.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So this is the first actual die shrink in a very, very long time. We've been stuck on 28 nanometer for a long time. 20 nanometer planer technology was not


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not ready for GPU. Leakage was too high, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. So AMD, it looks like, will actually be sourcing from both Global Foundries and TSMC. So they're gonna be leveraging, ugh, correct me if I'm wrong, but I think it's Global Foundries 14 nanometer and TSMC 16 nanometer process. Although, it's not clear...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If they will be dual sourcing, like AMD, like Apple has done with the, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is it A9? I always lose track of this crap. Anyway, with the chip in the iPhone 6s, where they're actually sourcing the same chip from both foundries, uh, what AMD may be doing is sourcing some GPUs from one and some from the other, like different products, which would require some doing over of work,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But not like a complete re-optimization and re-tuning of the chip like Apple would have had to do for the latest iPhone. So I think that pretty much wraps it up for the show!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're hacked, well one car was hacked, but it was done wirelessly, which is the big concern. Pro gamers, are they using drugs? Yeah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Actually a lot more than that. Actually yes. Well no, depends on which movie. Oh. Yes. Intro time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Not now. Uhm, alright, so this one is, uh, the headline here is Right to Destroy, or Right to Kill Drones. At least, that's our headline for it. Uh, so here it is, Naked Security. Uh, Dreams of Legally Slapping Drones Out of the Sky May Come True.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, which I guess Luke is gonna take over because now there's a handful of people waiting for me outside the room. I'll be right back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, no, probably not. Some of the, like, if, if we were talking, like, AR drones, then, probably. But if we're talking, like, the, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That thing is pretty robust, like I can imagine having to hit it with like, you know, a five pound projectile at least to really make an impact, unless you manage to hit a propeller or something like it. It's pretty robust, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Signals is, is not it. With that said, if the intention is to jam signals, you know, kind of, kind of, uh, EMP bomb style, you know, for...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] 10 seconds or 20 seconds to take the drone out of the sky.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right, where you just have jamming on- Well, no, because they're jamming GPS too. And I'm sure a rescue helicopter is gonna want its own GPS working. It's not like there's GPS pixie dust that makes- If you're jamming GPS, then-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, well, you'll get in trouble if you use it. I think in certain- I think in Canada- I looked into it. Uh, in Canada, I believe they are illegal to import, illegal to own, illegal to operate, but I believe there are places where they're illegal to import and own, but not legal to operate.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I got almost nowhere are they legal to operate. They basically shouldn't exist, but there's


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, and there's ones that, uh, and they're inexpensive. There's ones that are kind of, like, you could shut down everything within kind of a movie theater type radius, sort of thing, so if it's like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, you know like the classic, uh, you know, extra TV remote behind your parents. Like that kind of thing. But, uh, it's, it's pretty serious business if you get caught using them. So I really wouldn't recommend having that. Someone in the chat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, so eight board members, including vice chairman, have resigned their post as part of a major


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Management reshuffle. Their current chairman was named interim president. And this is one of the- oh, oh, oh, this is- this is funny. So, uh, year-end dividends and postpone earnings have been cancelled.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, Toshiba's stock has dropped around 20% since early April and the accounting issues first came to light. Here's what I'm kinda curious about.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right. But do they, do they even still make TVs?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know, I have one of theirs and I like it. There you go, Toshiba Canada, 3D TV, LED TV, okay. Let's just, okay, let's go to Toshiba's website. I'm just curious, what do they actually do?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You had the uh, the Samsung one that we actually still have deployed to this day, the Galaxy Tab 10.1. And then Toshiba had one that was just like, awful.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, Toshiba, I wanna say Thrive?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, it was just kinda stupid compared to everything else. So let's like, look at all this stuff. So...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yes, that is how people do polls. It's like, if I wanted to conduct a national survey, I would just, I would just like have an open phone line that people just call in and say their answers, and then I wouldn't write it down, I would just sit there and I'd kinda go, oh yeah, it really seems like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I gotta, I gotta know. I gotta know what computer accessories. Oh, I think I'm on the support site. So this might not even all be current stuff. Alright.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We're sorry. Sorry. Toshiba Accessories Blowout. They make UPS's apparently. Okay. Okay. Office products. Uh, oh! Large like, like large multi-functions. Telecom stuff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Point of sale this and that, and barcode printers, UPS's surveillance systems?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Medical MRI systems. Oh wow, okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so there's people involved in that kind of stuff, uh, digital signage. So very, very industrial, industrial oriented, but of course that relies on


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Winning bids, and uh, whereas consumer can be more, can be more run rate business. So having a look at how the results are looking, wow!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A mere 11% of you have bought anything from Toshiba in the last year. Speaking of turnips, by the way, the Evoke for Turnip shirt, I think this is the last day. Oh my gosh, I haven't ordered one yet.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's our next- oh, next topic. Okay, doping in esports. This is...

[Assistant] Doping in e-sports. Alright, did you, uh, copy that into the Twitch chat? I'm working on it. Alright, I'm gonna bring up the- I like, closed the- I closed the WAN show, doc. I have no idea what's going on today. So,
