[Assistant] In prison. I ain't never been in prison, but even just being in the county, just like, me having the feeling of like missing out on life, see, the jail I was in, we didn't see no sunlight. We couldn't tell if it was light or dark outside, unless you look at the clock. But sometimes the clock could break.

[Assistant] When I was younger, I didn't think he was raw at all until I got to realize what he was saying.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He really dope. He's a good ass dude too. I just, I ain't gonna lie, I just seen him in Atlanta, but in the airport, I seen him, I just walked right past him though.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I ain't like, I don't never tell nobody no for pictures.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A lot of people telling people no, but look. I wish I could say that. I had to turn down something. I never could say no.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If it's no, it's cause my, uh, security guard said no. Or my manager like, home we gotta go to a show. But I never say no cause guess what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Man, you don't fuck with us. I read all my comments on Instagram and on YouTube too. I read all. So I be saying what y'all be saying too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I find it funny cause people gonna, uh, they gonna say what they wanna say.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I read everybody comments, I even comment back sometimes. When people be DMing me about their life story. And I DM them back sometimes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, that's kinda dope. But like, to be real, I don't be doing that. I don't screenshot nothing. I don't even like, you know how you see homeless people. Or like, you know how people be uh, be like recording themselves, giving them shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was in Atlanta mall. You better watch Atlanta, they, uh, they good with that shit. What, pickpocketing and shit? Nah, yeah, nah, nobody know pickpocketing, they stealing. Nobody know, stole from me. That's how my brother. Oh, listen.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When he was in Atlanta, I went in the mall and shit, you know, they be having a little, the young little boys. I ain't even, I ain't even gonna fuck up their gang, cause I know what they be doing, so I ain't even gonna talk about the little boys. But, uh, it was a grown man, he was with his family. He was like...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, H, dah, dah, dah, dah. You know what I'm saying? He like, man, help me and my family get a hotel and we stuck out here for the night. Dah, dah, dah, dah. Type shit, right? So, you know, me being me, I used to struggle a lot. So I took out like a couple hundred dollars, probably like a couple hundred. I gave it to him. I'm like, y'all just getting on with it. He had his kids with him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I go around the block, I mean I go around like to another store, I come back there and I start shopping.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I said, oh for real, that's how y'all doin' it. I didn't even speak on it. Wow. So now you just fucked it up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So disgusting, bro. Guess what, when I used to be younger, when I used to be younger, my homeboys, right, so they'll probably have some, I'll probably like 13, 14, and then my homeboy will probably have some hoes over and we'll probably be fucking them right.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I ain't gonna lie, I'ma be honest, when I, when I, I used to be so hungry for it, right? I'm still hungry for it. But I used to be so hungry, but then when I started like getting a lot of stuff, seeing more money, I got comfortable for a little bit. But I had to snap back to reality.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The more I record, the more I let most shit out or the more, like, the different shit I talk about.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's what I had to learn that. But I always used to work hard. I never been a lazy type of person. But like, I ain't gonna lie. That's mainly it. Cause I got the music, I got the talent, I got the mindset. I just gotta, I gotta apply it. For sure. Put pressure on it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, I just dropped it the other day, but I got a remix on it with Black Youngster, and it's on my Step Harder mixtape. I got a Step Harder mixtape, uh, I think in November. Free Black Youngster? Nah, he out right now. Oh, he is out, good. I just talked to him this morning. You gotta be careful.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I love that nigga. Funniest, coolest, man, when I had him on the podcast, I was so happy. Get what? That's why I love Mimo more, just cause he remind me of my little brother. Oh really? He just goofy as fuck and like don't give a fuck and he's just gonna keep it real.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we just, we performed and shit, I just turned, damn, we turned around and went to his show right after it, and turned that bitch up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I fucked with that nigga so much, I ain't gonna lie to you. He be teaching me a lot of shit though, he be talking to me like, he trying to like, uh, school me on things like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shit I can do in life, uh, the moment I can see how easy it is to make this right up. How quick it is to make this million. Look how quick it is. Eh, watch this. I fuck around. Me too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] See, I'm sober. I'm sober. My mind be sober. I just, I get retarded though. Sober.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I got, I got a lot of artists on that too though. I don't really do artists, but I fought for these artists. Like I don't do features, but now I got a lot of features though.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Go check his shit out too. Appreciate you, man. Big step, big ATK. I live for the day I might die tomorrow.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Terra saver guy. He saved me when I was little.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Moira was trying to get to that tower when I was with her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I wonder if Moira made it to the tower


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Have you seen a little boy around? I'm looking for my son.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So uhm, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So uhm, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, uh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, uh, uh, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tu er zai feng yin qing cang qian, zeng zai zi chu tou he le yi tan jiu.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's my fault. I almost lost you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, my Instagram is uh, at official deactivated. I've been trying to get my music out there and shit, and like, yea I got like an EP coming to SoundCloud, uh, Apple Music, Spotify, YouTube, everything.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Why, why won't you say, uhm, people instead of saying black people, just people? Like people will want that. Why do you say people?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean, when I was younger, I had an older brother, so like he always like took up for me, but then I stayed in the same school, so I had friends, so as I would move up, I would always have the friends, but I wouldn't like let it get to me, like I'm like, okay, they say this again, like I never heard that before.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But nowadays I feel like it's more known. Like you see more little people now and it's more like different.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, we did like little games. Every time we went out, like we would get little bookings.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, it's very educating, cause like a lot of, it helps a lot of other little people, but it also educates average height people of us. So it's like, both.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They're just haters, like, even on our lives and stuff or even the comments. I'm like, why do you even follow us then?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A really good view of your butt. Yep, and he got your butt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I'd rather every day instead of just putting it all like reality.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I mean my dad was 6'4 and my mom's 4'.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Try to capture all the passion and sensuality of this show in 30 seconds? Not easy. As this montage shows, Genoa City is one very busy place.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What happened to Moira? Was Moira with you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'll always need you. But for now, I have this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'd like to thank my dad, who couldn't be here, for supporting me and getting me started in the business. Wendy Rich.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Unfortunate, T.C. is unable to be here with us tonight, but we accept this award on her behalf and God bless. I guess that she would say it. Thank you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well as you say, in most years, the reduction in malnutrition, the reduction in childhood death, uh, the increase in literacy rates,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's this gradual progress that, uh, human life is getting better, people are living longer, and it's amazing that this is so widespread in its negative effects, and


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The actual direct effects of killing people in


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Poor countries is a very small part of the overall damage that's been done. A big part is that their health systems that are very fragile


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We'll have dramatically more deaths from these indirect effects.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Takes us to a discussion of about vaccines, which is the only tool to do that. And then make sure that we do restore the services, even some catch up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, for the kids who miss those vaccinations. And even if we do our best, uh, on all those things, the vaccine, the restoration, the rich country generosity, it'll take two to three years just to get back to the beginning of 2020.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's deaths, uh, all over, and now no one's saying that the distribution algorithm will be totally based on, uh, equity, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, there'll be some tilt towards the countries that help fund the R&D.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But we need to have some balancements here, uh, both the generosity to buy the vaccines for those countries, uh, to increase the manufacturing capacity because this is more


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Units of a vaccine than the world has ever needed, and then to help fund.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, that availability without, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The rich countries taking all of the, that capacity.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, the foundation's motto is all lives have equal value and, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The foreign aid that rich countries give has saved tens of millions of lives.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, our foundation is saving a life for every thousand dollars we spend. It does show that we do treat lives outside the US as not being as valuable.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, as those lives and, you know, it's, it's, it's pretty extreme. This would be a double mistake because not only


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's going to come back and so you can't resume your normal activity. And so of all the health crises, this is one where the world really is in it together. Uh, even countries that did a good job on the epidemic, uh, like South Korea or Australia,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, continue preventative measures where they have very few cases with big.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, disruption and economic costs. And so here, we've got to solve it, uh, for all of humanity. And, and so it's both just and even from a Southeast point of view, it's the smart thing to do.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] U.S., although it is exemplary in funding the R&D,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, for the six vaccines that are the most likely to get, uh, really strong regulatory approval by early next year.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The US has been absent in the discussion about creating the capacity and the aid money.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now I'm hopeful, you know, the Congress historically has been great on global health, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, very generous on things like HIV, malaria, uh, and so the fact it's been overlooked,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And I hope that gets remedied and very quickly because


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, every month that this epidemic stays out there literally costs trillions of dollars and yet the billions needed for the vaccine are what the only thing that will bring it to an end.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's, it's not equitable at all. Uh, the extra work, having the kids at home, uh, you know, finding enough food, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, extreme poverty is waking up and worrying where you have enough to eat, uh, every day and, you know, the gold by 2030,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Particularly in Asia, uh, has been quite good. It's been going down a lot. The place where, uh, it's been toughest


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is in Africa, where you have very high population growth.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You have the difficulty of climate change making the farming


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, less predictable, so you have years, uh, where you don't get enough. And, you know, we'd hoped that


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With generous aid, with better seeds, uh, that Africa too would start, uh, the kind of miracles that we've seen in Asia. But this at best is a, a three or four year setback.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, to that uh, quest to have almost no one live in extreme poverty.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Having ignored the warnings about, uh, the pandemic this time,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The rich countries, including the US, will take the threat seriously and they'll do the kind of simulations to prepare.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They'll have, you know, large scale diagnostic capability immediately available, which the US in particular was the worst, uh, on that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We'll, you know, mature some of these vaccine platforms that are not only worthwhile for pandemics, but will be used to make vaccines for malaria, TB, and HIV. And so just like in wartime, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, we moved quickly and tried new things. You know, even in terms of our lifestyle, can you use telemedicine? Can you use online education? Can you avoid some of the business travel we do? You know, we, our eyes have been opened up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, you know, so the, uh, you know, that software is getting a lot better, uh,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And, you know, so it's a real acceleration there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, that's why we have six vaccine candidates, several of which are extremely likely to prove safe and efficacious by


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, if this pandemic could come 10 years ago, you know, our internet bandwidth wouldn't have


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let us do our office jobs. The vaccine platforms won't be as far along. So you know, it's it's phenomenal. We can say that within a few years with a little bit of luck on the vaccines and some generosity, real effort to get the word out that it's safe.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, this pandemic will come to a close, you know. So a lot more negative would be saying, oh my god, this, uh, is gonna continue indefinitely. That, uh, fortunately, because of science, the pharma companies jumping in, uh, that's not the case.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, we'll go into a postmortem. Uh, the CDC,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, made some mistakes at the start. And then you had things moved up to a political level without expertise, where the willingness to admit mistakes was zero. You know, so the fact that we still have test results that take more than 24 hours, that is just a desire to say, oh, I solved the testing thing. You shouldn't reimburse for those, uh, delayed test results. So we, we still, you know, are, uh, performing way below what we should.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, so I do think there'll be a lesson to let the professionals, uh, do their work. And there'll be lots of research and development about how you can ramp up


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, testing drugs and vaccines very quickly. So yes, I think, unlike


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, the title of my 2015 talk, which was, we're not ready for the next pandemic. I think three years from now, uh, we will be ready for the next pandemic.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was really impressed by it, but I also took it as like a challenge. I think I can, I really think I can beat her.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So I watch TV to be useful to the show, so you're welcome.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's good, cause the actor still might be acting in something, and can I say though, earlier today you were watching a show from like the 50s, so the 90s is at least closer to now than what you watch.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's the one where Monica writes out all seven erogenous zones and then she starts going through them. I think that everybody knows which scene I'm talking about. But it's really good.

[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So, I mean, when it comes to South African paleontology, uhm, as Nizar said, there's, there's still, I mean, every day, for example, today, I got a message from, uh, my, my lab, they're in the field at the moment and they found new, uh, mass of spawnless fossils, uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And so we are finding things all the time and not, not just, uh, skeletal fossils, there's also trackways and, and just all sorts of different types of things that we're learning about.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, so they were about, so originally it was thought that they were very close to hatching, uhm, but if we look at the number of bones which have ossified, and also if we look at their teeth, so they have these teeny tiny teeth, which to put, uh, to give people an idea of how small these embryos are, those teeth are less than like a millimeter wide, they're half a millimeter wide.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So yeaah, so post, I mean post extinction, uh, diversity is...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think it, yeah, it's, there's many, many things that lead to, to how, how they, they cope with that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, I mean, it's such a tricky situation, cause it is, I mean,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I may or may not have accidentally pressed the emergency stop button at a very expensive CT scanning facility.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Bioterror. The world lives with it. You live with it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Viruses are stolen, re-engineered, misused with tragic results.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Politicians who sell their souls for a few votes. CEOs who betray consumers for a quick buck.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We are the unflinching mob that sops up the evils of bioterrorism and chemical warfare.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Terror save. Because terror doesn't have to end with a risk.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've got some grown-up stuff to attend to, but I'll come back for you later, okay?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're not scared of me?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You need to break the lock. See anything around there you can use?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well that's one thing they left out of the brief. This island is completely crazy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know, honey. Let's keep our eyes peeled in case there's more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a virus some bad people used in Africa a couple of years ago. Question is, how did it get out here?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hmm. We're gonna have to smash through the gate.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You can say that again. This was logged six months ago. Jesus Moira.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hey, hey, hey, it's your boy Hakeem, and today we finished the streets to go ask some people some questions.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's go. So what's up my guy, what's your name? Dave Wang. Bring G's. Lil Ripple.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So Playboi Carti's Kid Cudi song leaked and went number one on a Spotify playlist. Should people be punished for leaking music? And do you think leaking a song can help a rapper? It goes both ways.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, you should hear that. That should go hard. Cardi Baby voice is A1 on that shit. Oh, give it a listen. You into the Baby voice and rap?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I, my, my theory on it is probably either the session got left behind in the studio or somebody, I got a lot of unreleased shit in my phone so somebody might have sent it. And it's simple, it's easy for me to fucking upload and leak a fucking song. People send me unreleased music all the time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A good place to land that we could land any direction depending on where the wind came from and the Round Lake served that purpose.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was also protected from the mountain rains around it, so it wasn't very visible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It was pure aluminum, and we said, hey, we look like a bright star up there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] If you get up along the Canadian border, the ground controller, I want to question my altitude. Actually, he was pretty accurate. And I says, no, you got to recalibrate your weapon. That's not the altitude we're at.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shepard, it's good to see you again. So, what can I do for you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you hack one, a server will open somewhere nearby for a short time. You can download data from there if you hurry. Thank you, Shepard. This may help me pay a great debt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shepard, it's good to see you again. Thank you for getting me that system data. Here, it's not much, but hopefully it will help you on your mission. Do you remember the Shadow Broker?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With the data you got me, I may be able to find information caches from his agents.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Actually, it would be more accurate to say that the Shadow Broker is on the run from me. We crossed paths not long after you died. Since then I've been working to take him down. With this data I'm a step closer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm sorry, Shepard. The galaxy doesn't work that way. I need to find leads, trace information. I need to work. I can't do that on the Normandy. I wish I could.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thanks, Shepard. I will. Now. Is there anything else I can help you with?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He was a friend. He helped me recover your body from the Shadowbreaker.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He was going to sell you to the collectors but Farron and I stopped him. Farron sacrificed himself to save me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's funny. He betrayed me more than once. He was double dealing for Cerberus, for the Shadowbroker. But in the end, he sacrificed himself for me. I owe him.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I... I don't know. I need to prepare to think. I'm going home. Use my terminal if you need any local intel.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've spent two years plotting revenge. Now I have the chance to make it a rescue.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When we first met on Theram, you saved me from the geth. You fought a krogan battlemaster while I cowered. Now you're doing it again. And I'm still leaning on you for help.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A little fall wasn't going to kill you. I had to stay on Vizier. I had to stay rational. Make the call. Like I did with Sakat.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know, Shepard. I've never broken into the Shadowbroker's base before. Well, not this one anyway.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's a neural grounding rod. The medical equipment is to make sure he doesn't expire. We have to shut this place down!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shepard, we really don't have the time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The shield's kinetically sensitive. Energy and projectiles are bouncing off.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Come by when you have a chance. The doors are always open.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm a bit overwhelmed to be honest. The Shadowbroker had more resources than you can imagine. Here, come on over.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I can understand the temptation. I've got all the secrets of the galaxy at my fingertips. Give me ten minutes and I could start a war. But I've got a purpose, helping you stop the Reapers. That will keep me honest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He also knew that the collectors were Protheans, repurposed to be Harbinger's puppets. There's even some data on the Protheans.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The Shadow Brokers seemed to think there was more out there. Perhaps the Protheans had other plans, or...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know. He wants to work so I'm letting him help. Maybe it takes his mind off it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, thanks. I'll be right there. Just give me a minute.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I also spoke with Doctor Chokwas. I'm glad she's doing well. I brought you something. It took some digging, but I recovered your tags.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You're alive again. I've got everything I want. So tell me what you want. What are you fighting for? The future of humanity, as evidenced by the perfect Miss Lawson?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I hope the galaxy proves itself worthy of the effort you're putting into saving it. I should get back to my base, but thanks for inviting me up, Shepard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm sorry, is this a counter-terrorist operation or a Saint's Flow shoot? I'm shy. Archerodical, follow me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Huh, didn't expect them to be all business. We know what's at stake. Do you?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] My tech guy brought us a 10 minute window. Remove fast, we'll only need to worry about the guards on foot.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What is this? You coming or what?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Best intelligence shows codename Mr. X is preparing a full assault against their own nation. I've been tasked with making sure they don't succeed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's do this without drawing attention, yea?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Even the slightest disruption of a single beam will send a 2000 volt shock through your entire body.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What we'll have to do is move through the gaps in a serpentine pattern.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm not sure what this whole thing is, but I know it isn't real. While I don't relish the idea of seeing someone I care about being murdered over and over again, I also don't see a purpose to needless blubbering. Hey, I was just- Focus on the job.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] According to Kinsey's intel, the key needs to be taken to the old syndicate tower. The entrance to the system is in the loading dock. We will be driving the truck while you keep the zen off us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] After entering, Sid will be in charge of driving the key into the main computer hub, which will cause the simulation to begin destabilizing. Good luck.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No problem. It'll be just like that bit Matt and I did in Vatican City.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right now they're used to getting eaten. We're gonna cover their retreat. Get as many people off world as we can.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What's our time frame? Last transport leaves in five days. Any one we get to that ship is a win. Five days of that great glory.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hello everybody, my name is Markiplier and this past weekend we raised $110,000 for Crisis Text Line. That is absolutely astonishing. Thank you everybody so much for joining the charity livestream and thank you everybody so much


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For donating to the cause. If you don't know about Crisis Text Line, I'll leave a link in the description below the links to their website. You can find out more about them, but I'm sure you know about it because I blabbered endlessly about it. And it was fun. It was so much fun to be there with my friends and the whole gang was able to participate and you guys were able to play with us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I guarantee you this is the start of regular monthly charity livestreams. In fact, uh, Tyler and I are going back home to Cincinnati, and when we are there, we're hoping to join Bob and Wade in a Cincinnati reunion charity livestream that should be...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oodles of fun. We just have to set up a few things, but that will be next month, and we're probably gonna do a Christmas theme to it, and also I wanna do a 12 days of Christmas video thing, uh, that we're gonna be doing next month. But that's getting ahead of myself, because, uh, I wanted to talk about this week's videos, and by the title of this video, which is probably something along the lines of


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But we tried something, which we probably shouldn't have tried. So, so basically we went out to the park, and it was super awesome, as it always is, to meet you guys and be able to do videos with you guys. And there's still another video that we did from that session that's gonna come out later, but one of the things that we did do,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Was attempt the don't laugh challenge in public and we discovered that that either that doesn't work in general or we're just not funny which I'm more inclined to believe the latter of the two options there because something about being in public versus


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Controlled environment like the office is just vastly different because the don't laugh challenge is supposed to be


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, that's part of the experience, but when you're out in a park, you don't get to escape. You don't get to run away when something's bad because the weirdest thing was there was an audience there. You guys were there and you guys don't wanna be mean so you kinda


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Half laugh? But that's so much worse than just dead silence. Because it's kind of funny when a joke falls so flat on its face that it's just crickets is all you can hear. And sometimes, like, that is funny in and of itself and that's what makes the Don't Laugh Challenge good. But when you get a bad joke and then, heh, yeaah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That is the death of comedy. That is the death of everything. And I talked about it on the livestream that I was gonna play this, and of course I am because I'm not gonna shy away from this one. It didn't work, and I'm gonna show you how-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How not not work it you did. So this is what we're talking about.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, the world's worst flash mob. It's where they do Gangnam Style in the mall. Uh, oh, what am I talking about? I'll just pull it up. It's, it's, it's this video? Man, wait.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's just they're not committing and that's the problem. They're like ha- it's like half committing. It's the essence of all- and then this guy waiting in the wings.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that's kinda what happened here, and it's not any fault of you guys. It's only us. It's only us. Oh wait, I wanna talk about this guy. That guy right here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah. I-I hate to say that it's bad because it was-it was the kid's like, deadpan jokes that almost actually made me laugh. Cause he said, he said, well the first one was like, what do you call a squirrel that flies? A flying squirrel. And it was just the way that he delivered it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Really funny to me. And then the next one was, what do you call a guy on the ground? A dead guy.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is like, oh my god. They aren't bad jokes, they're anti-jokes. And those are funny, whereas bad jokes are not. And it's just, there's a distinct difference. It's like that Brian Regan joke where he said, where his son said, huh?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I just, like, it's still fun, like, I don't wanna knock this in any way, it's not not fun to go out here and do this stuff with you guys, but there's just a line to cross in terms of making a video out of it and putting it up on the internet, because Catherine was trying to edit that one, and then Catherine was just like going up to me like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We know it was not good. So anyway, that is, uh, that is the story of that. But oddly enough,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the way that, uh, Ethan was telling me about the other video, uh, the one that we did put up, the Don't Laugh Challenge that we did, because Ethan told me, it was not funny either, and then we all gathered around and watched it, and we could not catch our breath.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Because we were laughing so hard. It was so incredibly funny to us. Because it was the perfect blend of awkward cringiness with


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Actual funniness. Just the spontaneity and the improvisation of it makes for a really fun video, and that's why I love those types of videos. But that does not mean that I won't be doing the Try Not to Laugh Challenge, which is gonna come again very soon. I've got a stockpile of videos, I just gotta go through them again.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Maybe I'll try to incorporate a you guys component to that too, but I don't know. There's a lot of holiday stuff coming up, but we do aim to get out there with you guys a lot more, so.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That is the wrap up for this week. We've had just a ton of fun. And I'm super happy with the way things have been going because I've been more motivated than ever to just get videos done and I'm-


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm, I'm like honored that I've got so many cool people around me that wanna push me to be better and, and uh, make better videos and just get out there and do stuff everyday and try new things. I don't regret trying this new thing!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't regret trying, even if it turns out to be bad. I do not regret trying. And that's something that I would encourage you guys to go out and do. Because in this regard,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We fail, but fear of failure shouldn't be something that dissuades you from trying new things and going out there and expanding your horizons because you never know


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Just not us. And not then. So either way, thank you everybody so much for watching. Look forward to another charity livestream next month with even more friends. It should be super awesome and hopefully back in Cincinnati. And look forward to Bob and Wade coming out here to visit


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Very soon. So, thank you again everybody for watching, and as always, I will see you in the next video. Buh-bye!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I guess. Those creatures that attacked you are after the Keyblade. But it's your heart they really want. Because you wield the Keyblade. I'm so glad that you're okay, Kairi. Kairi? Who are you talking about? I'm the great ninja Yuffie.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And to set the proper tone for our show, I can't think of anyone better than a cop and a former lifeguard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We'll bring to you some of the more curious and interesting things that have happened to your favorite soaps during the past year, including the best and the worst of 1986.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, later we'll be telling you what the contest is all about, but right now it's time to reveal the winner in our next soap opera awards category.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And here to reveal the three dastardly finalists and very evil winner is a primetime couple.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dominique Devereaux's lovely and delicate daughter, Jackie, on Dynasty, and Night Court's lovable ballad, Bull Shannon. Ladies and gentlemen, Troy Baer and Richard Moll.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he will be escorting a talented beauty who has completed three motion pictures and whose life is the stuff of good drama. Ladies and gentlemen, Vanessa Williams and William Wyndham.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Farley Granger, Virginia Mayo, Billy Dee Williams, and Ruth Warwick.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And we'll be sharing some more in a minute when the third annual soap opera awards and more of your favorite stars from daytime and primetime return.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Later, she and her co-star created headlines as the doomed lovers, Luke and Laura, the most popular lovers in daytime history. Ladies and gentlemen, Jeannie Francis.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wait, wait a minute. Nothing forever on scopes. As easily as they go, they can come back. Ladies and gentlemen, the girl on the roof from Santa Barbara, Harley Kozak.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] She's been bulimic, addicted to diet pills, suffered a near fatal drug overdose, an unwanted pregnancy, an attempted suicide, and a marriage of convenience.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Still, our presenters portray them so well, they both have received Emmy recognition.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ladies and gentlemen, from the Young and the Restless in Santa Barbara, here are Beth Maitland and Nicholas Costa.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Presently award for outstanding daytime supporting actress are two performers who have displayed their talents on more than one television series. Starting on One Life to Live, she took a short sabbatical to appear on Young and the Restless, but is once more back to Landview, Pennsylvania.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A co-presenter sharpened his devious methods with Alexis Colby on Dynasty and now puts them to good use on Falcon Crest. Ladies and gentlemen, John Saxon and Andreal Evans.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Present the award is a young gentleman who has gone from T.J. Hooker's precinct to the vineyards of Falcon Crest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So to present the favorite daytime super couple, Shannon Doherty and Richard Herb.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A woman who got a break on Secret Storm recently premiered her new nightclub act and currently plays Andy Griffith's daughter on Matlock.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nighttime also brings us some of the finest actors from other mediums. And our next presenter is a 40 carat example of good fortune.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Super couple, I, you know, I, I did, uh, one time ride the Super Chief.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We can only be the best because we have the best backing us. It takes the best team to put it together and forward. So thank you very much. And I'm glad that you're part of our team. Thank you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And here we go with the Soap Opera Digest Prop Contest.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The nominees for Outstanding Nighttime Drama are Dallas, Falcon Crest,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, not a bad idea. Now how could any man say no? To announce the outstanding night time drama, please welcome Michelle Lee, Donna Mills, and Joan Van Arck.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This used to be a poor area. I couldn't even afford to go to school. But with this trash, I could put my three children through school. My oldest is getting a PhD.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Gary's brother on Dallas, that Prince of Evil, J.R. Ewing, who sidestepped his wife, Sue Ellen, en route to Lush's Mandy Winger.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] We thought you'd get more enjoyment and satisfaction out of seeing the real stars from the real shows that are being honored on the third annual soap opera awards. Not the clips, but in the flesh.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No kidding. For example poor Nathan Hastings of the Young and the Restless had to confess that he was an illiterate. But happily Amy Lewis was there to teach him how to read.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And later Emma purposely identified the wrong man as the father.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, this is wonderful and I'm so touched. I want to thank and say how much I love Al Rabin for 10 years.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And especially Al Rabin and Shelly Curtis because, uh, I wasn't meant to stay in Salem very long. And, uh, it's because of their support and they're allowing me to, uh, just experiment and do what I do that I'm still there. And I really want to thank them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The president of the Philippines, Rodrigo Duterte, even made it very clear, uh, to Canada that the trash was not welcomed, to send it back, uh, to Canada.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They are John Aniston as Victor for days of our lives. Lane Davies, Mason on Santa Barbara.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Tristan Rogers as Robert on General Hospital.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shortly after that, she made history. She opened the floodgates, changed the style of soaps forever. Now she's heading off to make more television history.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've got a background looking at the climatology of landscapes and so that helps us understand better the organisms that we're studying in the context of the landscape.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To use a local example, purebred yaks can no longer live at the elevation of where they used to live.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And there are pebbles and rocks covering the surface, but when you remove them, look underneath, you're finding that basically soils are developed. There's mosses, there's little tussle grasses.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Basically an ecosystem seems to actually be developing under the surface of this very unstable rocky substrate.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's much more life up here than meets the eye at first glance, that's for sure.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, you asked for it. A hundred servants and a hundred candles loaded with gold. Just say the word and I'll deliver it in thirty minutes or less or you're meal free! Hey, I'll even throw in a cappuccino. No thanks. Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Comes with a job. Phenomenal cosmic powers. Itty bitty living space. It's always three wishes, then back to my portable prison. I'm lucky to see the light of day every century or two.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Genie! No! Sorry, Al. The one with the lamp calls the shots. I don't have a choice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, Earth to Al? Hello? You still have one wish left? Look! Just say the word. Ask me to find Jasmine for you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sorry Al, I'm done taking orders from others.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But, a favor? Now that's entirely different. I guess I could give that a try. After all, we're pals, right Al? Genie. Just leave it to me!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Following Cid. Don't touch anything!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This is a tribute to our writers who start with that blank sheet of paper and create wonderful characters. And the characters are all brought to life by many of the actors that you've honored here today and by directors who put it all together.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And by a wonderful production staff that keeps us straight and a staging staff and an engineering staff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's also wonderful and has kept us on the air for 21 years. And of course, a supportive network.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Aye Captain, they walk the plank, every last one of them.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I've watched, I wrote it down so that I could say this, cause I can't do the math, uh, it's, I'm on my 42nd episode.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I do, uh, the New York Times, uh, Sudoku puzzles, I do easy, medium, and hard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] With Rachel's inadvertent kiss, it's when she accidentally kissed the guy, Ralph Lauren, and uh, it was very awkward. It's also, Phoebe's dating a cop, and she's telling Monica- We got it, that's good, that's fine.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Noah, like, Noah from like the Bible. They saved all the animals and shit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Nowadays, I mean, anybody would do anything for clout, like, say, you know, I saw that shit with Adam and shit, that kid pulling up. I mean, people do anything to get famous, so yeaah, like, fuck it, be safe. I mean, NBA just dodged a bullet, what, like last week, and that fool got killed behind him or something? Yeaah, in my


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I think so. I mean, they're targets, man. Like, people are going for them. You see all these people getting dropped and hit up and shit. Like, I feel like that's cool to have a bulletproof car. Like, yeaah.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Shout out here all the time, man, like normal people, but like rappers are like, getting hit up too, like they're targets, like people are looking at them, you know? So, if you wanna, if you wanna put bulletproof on your car, cool.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The following video is based on topics learned in previous lessons. If you're just starting out with Bitcoin, you may want to review some of our more basic videos before moving forward.

[Assistant] Well, stick around. In this episode of Crypto Whiteboard Tuesday, we'll answer these questions and more.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hi, I'm Nate Martin from 99Bitcoins.com and welcome to Crypto Whiteboard Tuesday where we take complex cryptocurrency topics, break them down, and translate them into plain English. Before we begin, don't forget to subscribe to the channel and click the bell so you'll immediately get notified when a new video comes out.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Today's topic is Segregated Witness, or SegWit for short. SegWit is an upgrade to the Bitcoin network that was activated in August of 2017. It was first introduced by developer Peter Vella at the Scaling Bitcoin conference in December of 2015.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] SegWit aims to solve several issues, one of which is Bitcoin's scalability. Bitcoin transactions are written on a blockchain, an immutable ledger on which transactions are bundled together into blocks that are chained one to the other in order to determine their order.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A new block is created roughly every 10 minutes. Additionally, Bitcoin's protocol limits the capacity of a block to 1 megabyte, which limits a Bitcoin block to around 2700 transactions on average. This creates a problem when a lot of people are trying to send Bitcoin simultaneously, as the queue of transactions waiting to enter the blockchain gets longer and longer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] While Visa can process 1700 transactions per second, Bitcoin can process only 4. Not nearly a scale that could handle mass adoption. In order for Bitcoin to truly become usable on a worldwide scale, it needs to find a way to increase its transaction capacity.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Another issue SegWit addresses is transaction malleability. Every Bitcoin transaction has three parts. Who sent it, also known as input, who receives it, output, and a digital signature that verifies that the sender is eligible to send the coins.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It turns out that Bitcoin's code allows digital signatures to be altered while a transaction is still waiting to get confirmed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The signature alteration can be done in such a way that if you run a mathematical check on it, it's still valid according to the network. But if you run a hashing algorithm on it, it gives a different result. Let me explain with an example.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For the sake of simplicity, let's say that the signature value was 3.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But instead of 3, I change it to 03 or 3 plus 7 minus 7. While mathematically the values are all the same, so it's still a valid signature, if I hash the different versions, I'll get different results, since hashing depends on how you write the value and not just the value itself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Creating a new transaction ID for an existing transaction can be problematic for a number of reasons. First, if you want to build second-layer solutions on top of the Bitcoin network, like the Lightning network, you need to make sure no one can alter the first layer since the one relies on the other. If you want to learn more about the Lightning network, make sure to catch our episode about it as well.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Second, altering transaction IDs can cause issues if you're spending or accepting unconfirmed funds. Let's go through another example.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Alice pays Bob in Transaction X, which is currently unconfirmed. Bob uses these unconfirmed funds to pay for a product online from Charlie, Transaction Y. Meanwhile, Charlie sends Bob his product before waiting for confirmation on Transaction Y.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, after receiving his product, Bob does some technical tinkering and maliciously changes, or malleates, Alice's payment so that her transaction, X, gets confirmed, but with a different transaction ID.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Transaction Y, which is what Bob sent to Charlie, is now invalid since it relies on Transaction X's original Transaction ID that now no longer exists. So Charlie won't get paid even though he's already delivered the goods to Bob. Bad Bob.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] While scalability and malleability are the two most burning issues that SegWit addresses, there are a variety of other technical issues that SegWit tackles that don't necessarily affect the end user directly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now that you know what SegWit is, let's talk a bit about how it actually works. Segregated witness is a proposed change to how blocks are structured. Non-SegWit blocks, also known as legacy blocks, have a total of 1MB of space for all of the block data, inputs, outputs, signatures, and additional scripts.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] SegWit blocks, on the other hand, are in fact large 4 MB blocks that consist of a base transaction block and an extended block. So, contrary to popular opinion, SegWit is indeed a block size increase. SegWit blocks move the digital signature and other data known as the witness outside of the base transaction block.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So the base transaction block includes the information about the sender and the receiver and the witness data is left blank and doesn't take up any more space.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This allows for more transactions to fit inside the 1MB base transaction block. The extended block, the additional 3MB, include all of the witness data that isn't mandatory in the base transaction block. The new block format SegWit introduces achieves two major goals.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] First, it moves the digital signature outside of the base transaction block. This way, if someone changes the signature on the transaction, it won't affect the transaction ID.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This in effect solves the transaction malleability issue. You know, Bob.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Second, it shrinks down the base transaction data. Since the witness data takes up to 65% of the transaction size, moving it outside of the base transaction block allows more transactions to fit inside that 1MB block.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I know what you're probably thinking. If SegWit is in fact a block size increase, why not just increase the block size to 4MB in the first place? Why all of this hassle and block size debate if the end result is in fact bigger blocks? The answer is really quite simple. Developers wanted to avoid a contentious hard fork in the Bitcoin network.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You see, Bitcoin's protocol specifically states that blocks can't exceed 1 MB. So developers had to find a solution that will allow the network to accept both segwit and non-segwit blocks if a hard fork were to be avoided.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The solution of a 1 MB block with an extension of another 3 MB is something that is still acceptable under the existing protocol.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Legacy nodes receive only the 1MB base transaction block without the extended block. They still consider them valid. SegWit nodes receive both the base and extended block, up to 4MB in total, and can validate the transactions in full.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This backwards compatibility is also known as a soft fork. This approach is a lot less risky since it doesn't require nodes to update their software to support SegWit. It means that even if it takes years for all of the nodes to upgrade, the network will still function.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Now let's move on to how segwit blocks are measured by minors.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] While legacy blocks are measured in size, segwit blocks are measured in weight. Block weight is a new concept introduced in segwit, and it's calculated on a per-transaction basis. Each transaction has a weight, which is defined this way.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The size of your base transaction, meaning that which doesn't include the witness data, times 3, plus the full transaction size, and that equals your transaction weight.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Legacy transactions don't have the ability to strip away the witness data from the base transaction, so their weight will always be four times the transaction size. For example, a legacy transaction of 1,000 bytes will have a weight of 1,000 times 3 plus 1,000, equaling 4,000.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] For example, a 1200-byte SegWit transaction comprised of 400 bytes of witness data will have a weight of 1200, the total transaction size, minus 400, the size of the witness data, leaving the base transaction size of 800, times 3, making 2400,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Add the total transaction size of 1200 and that equals your total weight of 3600.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] In short, the larger the size of the witness data, the lighter the transaction weight will be.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Since they can fit more of them into a base transaction block, which increases the potential miner's fee should that block be accepted and confirmed. While in theory segwit transactions can create a block of up to 4 megabytes in size, in practice the average block size that includes segwit transactions is around 2 megabytes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Today, almost 50% of all Bitcoin transactions are SegWit transactions. Since legacy transactions are larger in size, they require higher network fees to get confirmed faster.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And finally, segwit addresses start with a 3, while legacy addresses start with a 1.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thanks to its advantages, more and more popular wallets and exchanges support SegWit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Ledger, Trezor, Electrum, Exodus, and Coinomi are just some of the major wallet brands that have already adopted Segwit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's important to note that if you have a legacy wallet and you want to move to a Segwit wallet, you'll need to create a brand new Segwit wallet and move all of your funds to its address. There's just no way to upgrade your existing legacy wallet to work with Segwit.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] SegWit is the first of many upgrades that will gradually allow for Bitcoin to scale for mass adoption. It's a fundamental change that will allow further developments down the road, like the Lightning Network, Schnorr signatures, and more. As more and more wallets adopt SegWit, it will soon become the standard for any Bitcoin transaction.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well, that's it for today's episode of Crypto Whiteboard Tuesday. Hopefully by now you understand what SegWit is. An upgrade to the Bitcoin protocol that segregates the witness data from the base transaction data.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hence achieving a smaller transaction size, securing transactions from malleability issues, and more. You may still have some questions. If so, just leave them in the comments section below.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Non-communicative. And they don't seem interested in us.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Living with his parents in Verona, New Jersey is not what 23-year-old Anthony DiCandia envisioned after graduating from college last year. But then again, he didn't envision being $80,000 in student debt either.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You hero types are all alike. Even less imposing close up.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And Superman's beloved city is vaporized.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I can sell the masses by offering to rebuild it in my own image of co-

[Assistant] The only way to access the Watchtower from Earth is the Hall of Justice.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Unless you want Superman to succeed, step aside. Both of you.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He knew exactly which buttons to push. It's not your fault. It's what he does.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Take care of him. Keep him locked up this time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Green Lantern, go help Wonder Woman. Really? I'll handle these two.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm giving you a chance. End this without further bloodshed.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Since when are you with them? Since the day Superman decided to hurt us like sheep. He only wants what's best for us. We aren't his playthings. He's no god.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well then, may fortune favor the foolish.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At least that hasn't changed. Stay low, I'll be back ASAP.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Stand down. You're done here. Definitely not ours.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] On my way. I need to charge my ring, and you and I are gonna take a little trip.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Someone call me? Your Sinestro Corps?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Sinestro's right. Fear is more effective than willpower.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you ditched green and went yellow. The color of cowardice. I'm still about order, like the Guardians.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hold on. A kryptonite weapon? You kill him, you're no better than he is.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, Bruce, ready for visitors? Wanna call?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Well look what I found. Time to end the insurgency.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I really am fascinated by some of the conversations people have post-mass shootings in America. One of the more interesting ones for me was uhm,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] A tweet that has drawn quite a bit of backlash from Neil deGrasse Tyson. I don't know if you saw this. He, uhm, he tweeted and said something about mass shootings, and was really insensitive, and people were so angry that he was trending. And, like, if you're trending and there's been two mass shootings, like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uhm, and basically the tweet was, it was about like scale or like how we react to the idea of people dying. He said like in the past 48 hours,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The USA horrifically lost 34 people, and then he was talking about, like, shootings on average. You know, he was saying, like, across any 48 hours, we also lose 500 people to medical errors. We use 300 people to the flu, 200 to car accidents, 250 to suicide, 40 to homicide. And then he said, often our emotions respond more to spectacle than to data. That's what he said.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then people, you know what I mean? And I, like, I get what he was trying to do, like he was trying to be, like, sciency in that moment. But first of all, timing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I guess the human element of-of what people are fighting for in America, and that is trying.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Cause a lot of people were like, yeah, you tell them Neil. People like to make, you know, mass, mass shootings a big thing in America. A few people die. And I was like, yes, but it's interesting to me how all these other things that people bring up still have a country that tries to stop them. Trying is the thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, medical errors happen, but you know what they've done over time? They've tried to decrease medical errors by implementing new laws, new systems where they go like, maybe the nurse can help and, you know, track what the doctor's doing. The pharmacist can look at your, you know, your prescriptions, make sure that you don't have an overdose. Things are not left inside your body. They try and decrease the numbers. Same thing with cars.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] People say they go like, more people are dying in car accidents. We don't ban cars. It's like, yes, but you know what we do? We ban dangerous cars.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Over the years, what we've done as a society is we've gone like, all right, these cars are not working. You have to have a certain type of car. To get a car, you need a license. You need to go through a process because we just want to minimize the chance of a person dying in a car. We're going to have random stops where they check if you are drunk driving.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] To try and protect people from dying in drunk driving accidents. We try. Speed bumps is the best. Like people try with speed bumps.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And people run to the extremes. You know, they'll be like, oh, after 9-11, 3,000 people died. America didn't ban airplanes. Yeah, but they locked that shit up hard.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They try harder and harder to make flying safer and safer. And as a flyer, I appreciate it. I go, yes, I understand the shit that I have to go through, but I appreciate the fact that it has become safer. Airlines used to get hijacked all the time.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Before like terrorist attacks, it was hijacked for anything. Political prisoners would be like, I'll hijack it. Someone who has a hostage situation. People would just do it for a statement. Planes would get hijacked. Then they said, you know what, we're gonna make it harder. We're gonna lock the door. I don't know why that was the thing that had to be invented.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And that, like, that's, that for me has always been like what America, America tries, man. You just go like, no, we're just gonna keep on trying. It's not about perfect, it's about trying to be more perfect.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know what I mean? And that's all I, like, that's all I don't understand about how people argue the guns thing is you go like, not saying get rid of guns, you're saying try to minimize the chances of this happening.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Try to make it as hard as possible for people to own a gun because you only want people who are willing to work hard to own a gun to own a gun. You only want people who respect a gun to own a gun. You want to make it as hard as possible.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then people always say the same thing to me. They go, Trevor, you just, you don't care about the second amendment. You know, I go like, yes, but the second amendment fundamentally, fundamentally, if you think about it, is about protecting human beings. That's what it was written. It was about protecting human beings.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Such a beautiful moment can't be rushed. Don't go cheering up without me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Harley tells me Superman made this pill for his thugs. Then Batboy's insurgents got some. Now we have them too.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'd worry less about him. Sweetums. Let's go.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh don't worry, there's a generous severance


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Tell the Supreme Kai of Tang that I'll see her soon.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, I wanted to end you painlessly, but you just wouldn't accept the offer.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Hmph. We shall soon... look forward to it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I'm assuming you've heard of me? From the Supreme Kai of Time, no doubt.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I have waited 75 million years for this. Are you insane? I'll never give up!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Look, even Beerus has his weaknesses. Now he is my puppet. Now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] At long last, the hour of my ascension has arrived.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Seems that your friends do my bidding now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] This world now has the only god it needs.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How could you still be alive? I see. You want to interfere, do you? I won't hold back then!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Another monkey brute. I'm surprised you made it this far.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I don't know. He said it was okay. It was good enough for me.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Made sense at first. Bad people got what they deserved.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Superman modeled his government after mine. We allow no insurrection!


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You think they'll char your skin and char your bones, but it'll make you clean in the long run.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, the server room is just down here.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Coolest podcast in the world. Today, I'm happy to be in here with the one and only Spider Loke. How you doing my guy?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, right, right, right, right, right, right, right. That's a good point. Okay. I forgot how biblical my name is sometimes.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, so let's, let's just be clear about this. You were a very, uh, early...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Remember of sort of the transformation of the west coast that we've seen. For me, like, just to explain, I'm from the east coast, I was a hip hop junkie, but I was really a G unit, just nerd, you know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I was one of those kids. So to me, it was like you coming in the game. I was just always mega fascinated by your involvement and everything. So I'm very glad that we were in here today doing this interview.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] All right guys, just got to take a quick break here from the podcast to do a quick shout out to our sponsor.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Forget everything that you think you know about mobile games because one of the most ambitious RPG projects of 2019 has just been released and is going to change everything. Introducing Raid Shadow Legends. Playing Raid is the most immersive experience that you will find on a smartphone and it can


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Only really be compared with the biggest PC and console titles. And the best part? It's totally free.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Brain has all the features that you would expect from a brand new RPG title like an amazing storyline, awesome 3D graphics, giant


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Boss fights, PvP, all of that good stuff. There's over 10 million players worldwide who have downloaded this game in the last 6 months. My favorite champion is Gallic, because I just used Cursed Blade, and I take out 4 guys at once. The thing about this game is that everyone can find something for themself.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Some love collecting characters and some are all about the deep storyline and graphics. The game is going super fast and check out this cool roadmap that they've published.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] They actually have huge plans for updates in this game for over six months. So there's infinite content for you to enjoy and no time to get bored.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] New faction, a tag team arena feature, uh, even new clan boss. Personally, I think this game is, uh, amazing. But you don't have to take my word for it. There's almost 30... No. Excuse me, I almost read that.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Wrong. There's 300,000 reviews. What an impossible to imagine number. Raid has almost a perfect score on the Play Store and the game is growing super fast. Uh, you'll definitely want to check this out. So what are you waiting for out there? No Jumper fans, people who want to support this podcast. I suggest that you go to the video description right now, click on the special link.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And a free Epic champion as part of the new player program. Start your journey. That's right. The link is down below. It's right in the description.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Anyway, appreciate y'all. Show some love to our sponsors. Let's get back into this Spider-Loke interview.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Definitely. So let's talk about the early days. Where are you actually from?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You see two very different outlooks from dudes who make it to, you know, late thirties, forties, uhm, and their perspective on the whole gang thing. A lot of dudes get older and they still love it and they're still happy to throw up their signs whenever they can and they go on picnics and they, they're still just loving the, the, the,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Almost used or victimized by even making that such a big part of his life. Where do you fall on that spectrum?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Definitely. But when you, when you look back at that time period, do you feel like you're joining the gang? Were you someone who was sort of being brought into it by the older cats who wanted to have somebody who they could, it wasn't, it was more of a youth thing?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right. Uhm, so, how far did you guys get with your, or how far did you get with your music career before you ran into Suge, which is kinda when you really started to get on a lot of people's radars, correct? Is this off the camera? Or we can do this on you? No, you can do it on camera, it's all good.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So just to say that you would definitely do your thing and you definitely had a wave going on, more of an underground level, but people forget too that this is, back in those days, it was kind of like if you didn't get a cosign, then motherfuckers, it was like, it was hard to be an independent, known artist. It just didn't happen the way it does now.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Dope rapper would have been able to sort of take matters into his own hands if he was a young man right now, but he ended up sort of on the shelf with that role for a long time and you know, it was out of his hands.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] What year, what year did you, did you start talking to Shug and what was that conversation like?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, that's facts. There's a lot more like what it was like before we all had little computers in our pockets too, you know?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That shit's crazy. I got a friend who's locked up right now and he got a phone and I got his number and it's just weird because I'll always be texting him and he'll say some shit that I wish I could like share with outside world and I'm like, I don't want anyone to know that he just sent me a picture of this.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The shit that trips me out is when I'll have a friend go to jail and I'll assume that that means that they're getting sober for a while.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And then I talked to him, and I realized, oh nah, they're off hella pills, Jeff.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Thanks. Okay, so what's the first conversation with Shuglai? How does it start unfolding?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you think Suge wanted you at that time as an artist or was it partially because he, you know, he wanted you as like muscle or like he wanted you to be part of the squad on like a street type of level?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But also it's like right now, everybody knows that Shug, like whatever, in terms of being a businessman and shit, that he's somebody you might not necessarily want to work with. Did you get that vibe at the time? Were you slowly realizing like maybe this is not a safe or healthy business arrangement?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did you think that 50 and them, were they, were they people that you straight up would have had beef with off rip? Like you were aware of that while you were still with Shug?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] How did the conversation start to unfold with 50 and do you think 50 was attracted to the fact that you were previously with Death Row and obviously, you know, like an enemy of my enemy as a friend of mine?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Was 50, I remember hearing somebody say at one point, they were like, somebody said to me, they were like, you know, I respect 50 because at one point he had like a hundred crypts around him protecting him and he never went around saying he was a crypt. Is that accurate?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But I mean, you know, a lot of rappers, you know, shout out Lil Wayne. Lil Wayne, you know, he starts popping in the game and then he sort of adopts the blood thing or whatever.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah. You probably don't even remember that the first time he went viral before he was really like a rapper and shit, he went viral because he had this shirt that said HIV on it.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] H-I-B, like that's a wild ass shirt to wear. Wow. Couple years later, he's a huge rapper.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I can't blame you for that. So okay, the 50 thing starts unfolding. Does he start mentioning right away the idea of you signing to him?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, so you started actually putting your skills on display.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Okay, so how does this start going from there? You actually signed a deal this time as opposed to the death row thing?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let me answer this, you're coming from the streets of LA, and then all of a sudden you're on tour with 50 and Young Buck, and I know that you have your own opinions of them that I guess we can get into over time, but early on,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Did it appear to you, you being a guy who's, you know, born and bred straight up LA shit, you know, you have a certain definition on what it is to be a man. Did it start to occur to you early on that something might be a little weird about these guys, no?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Oh, the G unit tattoo, exactly, right, okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] So you think that's what made 50 sort of separate from you, is you having issues with Snoop?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's interesting though because it feels like, like in recent times, we're talking about early 2000s, very few people do really hear them come out and say that they've had beef with Snoop. It feels like he got into that like grandfatherly role pretty early.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Uh, Snoop ended up signing with Game in that situation just because Game was the bigger artist and it just made, it was more beneficial to him career wise.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right, but I don't think anything, I don't think that Snoop Dogg's celebrating a gay actor or musician or whatever really is a threat on heterosexuality. I feel like that guy's just, that guy just


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] No, but it seemed like it was almost like a reference to like a horror movie type thing was how I took it. So, I'm dying.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeah, but don't you think when you look back at that, I mean, I look at that as like,


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You know, a lot of people in the rap game have taken the bad things that were happening in their personal life and then managed to spin it in an entertaining way. And when I look at that situation, I'm like, Snoop was dealing with a real deal murder case.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] And he managed to make videos that referenced it that people at home just thought was dope. They liked the artistry of it regardless. And I agree with you that it's kind of crazy because we aren't talking about somebody losing their life.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] But do you think that the world at large is generally just not really concerned with that kind of stuff in the way that maybe your prior generations were? That might be true.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You think the money changed him? The fame? Kinda made him forget about stuff like that that you might?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] There's a lot, a lot of that is what we know for interacting with people on social media, going at people's heads.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Is this the situation that FortyGlock was there for that, that you weren't there for? Okay.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] When you see him saying that shit about, uh, how YG used to claim Crip and stuff, does that mean anything to you? Do you see that as just a reach?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] I will say about Whack that I talked to him backstage at a BlueFest show one time, told me he was down to do an interview the next morning, hit him up the next morning, did not hit me back.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Damn, that's crazy. Do you think that, like, are you at the stage in your life where anything could ever happen, where y'all would just link up and run the fade or whatever, or have any sort of conflict? Like, is that even something that you think could happen at this point?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Let's keep it that way. Let's just keep it to the internet, right? So, when did the relationship start to go south with 50?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The fans want to know about the shit that you're not talking about. You know, they want to know about the details. Like if you were pushing an artist for a while and then you stop pushing the artist, of course the fans are going to want to know about that artist.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Yeaah, it's crazy too, because it's like when you look at the trajectory of how G-Unit went, it was like, you know, the early artists that he was pushing, like Banks and Game and shit, he was on tons of songs, even the Buck album, he was on a bunch of songs, he was really working, he was giving them hit records that he knew were gonna be hits.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right. Damn it, he still seasons assisted it even after all these fucking years, huh?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right. That's just crazy to think because, I mean, when you look at


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] He keeps coming back out. Clearly the albums are A&R'd to fuck. There's a lot of thought putting into him, putting into making hit records and stuff. You look at 50, he went the wrong way. He wanted to do his own thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] It's really interesting to think about, could 50 be more like Jay-Z right now if he had fallen in line with Interscope?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You don't believe that that's anything that actually happened? You think he just wanted to stir shit up?


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's crazy. When you look at Shug in retrospect, do you see him as like a...


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] The, the Buck, Buck versus 50 on social media. I know you're watching this shit just like everybody else. We gotta get you to talk about your thoughts on this whole thing.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Do you think letting Vivica A. Fox eat your ass is gay? No. No. I'll probably let her dig around in there.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] You rarely see them connected to like big star females publicly.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Man, I feel like I just keep getting into the rap game, but I still haven't really been turned on to that. I keep waiting for somebody to have a meeting and try to convince me I have to join this gay cult. And I'll be like, no, I'm straight, bro.


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] That's the whole problem. If, if Young Buck came out and did a DJ Vlad interview, or a No Jumper interview by the way, that would be great, but for some reason the DJ Vlad reviews is funnier for you to imagine, and if it was titled Young Buck Comes Clean About


[User] Please transcribe this text

[Assistant] Right. So you had beef with game before G-Unit and then were briefly cool with them for a period of time and then fell out?
