1
00:00:00,250 --> 00:00:02,375
Hey everybody, welcome back to Off the
2
00:00:02,375 --> 00:00:04,375
Console, the show where we
3
00:00:04,375 --> 00:00:05,875
talk about all the fun nerdy
4
00:00:05,875 --> 00:00:07,833
things that we do in the week and all the
5
00:00:07,833 --> 00:00:09,541
news that's happened in
6
00:00:09,541 --> 00:00:11,208
the tech world. My name is
7
00:00:11,208 --> 00:00:13,000
Gardner, I'm here with my friends Hi-Tech
8
00:00:13,000 --> 00:00:16,291
and James are the brink,
9
00:00:16,541 --> 00:00:17,416
right? You go by the brink?
10
00:00:18,333 --> 00:00:19,500
Whatever you want to call me.
11
00:00:20,125 --> 00:00:22,958
Games revealed, that too.
12
00:00:24,875 --> 00:00:26,375
That's coming soon.
13
00:00:26,875 --> 00:00:28,416
James revealed, just
14
00:00:28,416 --> 00:00:29,958
stick with the crunch code.
15
00:00:33,750 --> 00:00:35,375
Dude, this week we have a good show. I'm
16
00:00:35,375 --> 00:00:35,875
actually really
17
00:00:35,875 --> 00:00:37,000
excited about this. We have
18
00:00:37,375 --> 00:00:39,250
some news regarding the Switch 2's
19
00:00:39,250 --> 00:00:42,541
pricing changing, but it's
20
00:00:42,541 --> 00:00:43,708
weird, we'll talk about it.
21
00:00:44,208 --> 00:00:46,708
PS5 is also having a price increase in
22
00:00:46,708 --> 00:00:48,125
the UK and EU and
23
00:00:48,125 --> 00:00:50,375
Australia. What else we got? We got
24
00:00:50,416 --> 00:00:54,916
the new Chinese HDMI and DisplayPort
25
00:00:54,916 --> 00:00:56,250
competitor, which is kind of
26
00:00:56,250 --> 00:00:58,958
interesting. I found it a little
27
00:00:58,958 --> 00:01:01,875
titillating. 4chan was hacked, we're
28
00:01:01,875 --> 00:01:03,041
going to talk about that too. There's a
29
00:01:03,041 --> 00:01:03,833
whole bunch of stuff,
30
00:01:03,833 --> 00:01:05,916
so stick around through the whole episode
31
00:01:05,916 --> 00:01:06,875
here because we've got
32
00:01:06,875 --> 00:01:08,333
some fun things that we're
33
00:01:08,333 --> 00:01:10,500
talking about. We like to start off the
34
00:01:10,500 --> 00:01:13,208
show each week with talking about the
35
00:01:13,208 --> 00:01:14,000
stuff that we've been
36
00:01:14,416 --> 00:01:17,500
playing and working on. So Hi-Tech, why
37
00:01:17,500 --> 00:01:18,291
don't you start us off?
38
00:01:18,291 --> 00:01:18,958
What have you been playing this
39
00:01:19,000 --> 00:01:22,500
week? Well, I just beat Rise of the Ronin
40
00:01:22,500 --> 00:01:25,291
and I thought it was a
41
00:01:25,291 --> 00:01:27,500
pretty good game. I don't know
42
00:01:27,500 --> 00:01:29,583
why it got so much flack. Well, I mean,
43
00:01:30,250 --> 00:01:30,666
it had performance
44
00:01:30,666 --> 00:01:32,291
issues on PC, which is fair,
45
00:01:33,000 --> 00:01:34,750
but it was a PS5 exclusive, so I don't
46
00:01:34,750 --> 00:01:36,791
know why it had so much flack during
47
00:01:36,791 --> 00:01:37,458
that. I guess it was
48
00:01:37,458 --> 00:01:39,000
because people don't really jive with the
49
00:01:39,000 --> 00:01:41,333
whole historical Japanese
50
00:01:41,333 --> 00:01:42,791
theme. So it's like, you know,
51
00:01:43,458 --> 00:01:46,375
it's a game about Samurai and the Boshen
52
00:01:46,375 --> 00:01:48,250
War right before the Meiji Restoration.
53
00:01:49,125 --> 00:01:51,416
Back when you had American ships coming
54
00:01:51,416 --> 00:01:52,750
over, stuff like that. Yeah.
55
00:01:55,041 --> 00:01:58,041
I, it sounds really interesting. It's
56
00:01:58,041 --> 00:01:59,416
something that I've been
57
00:01:59,416 --> 00:02:00,583
wanting to check out, but
58
00:02:01,750 --> 00:02:03,958
so many other things. I'm wondering if
59
00:02:03,958 --> 00:02:05,250
that's just, it's a fatigue
60
00:02:05,250 --> 00:02:06,458
thing for people that like,
61
00:02:06,666 --> 00:02:09,750
I can either have fun or learn or do
62
00:02:09,750 --> 00:02:12,625
both. I guess I just want to not think.
63
00:02:13,916 --> 00:02:15,583
I find it weird that there's been so much
64
00:02:15,583 --> 00:02:16,500
backlash for the
65
00:02:16,500 --> 00:02:18,416
historical fiction set in Japan,
66
00:02:18,666 --> 00:02:20,375
specifically. Like, I don't know what
67
00:02:20,375 --> 00:02:24,791
that's about. Content for
68
00:02:24,791 --> 00:02:26,833
these grifters. They just need
69
00:02:27,458 --> 00:02:29,250
content, honestly, and it's low hanging
70
00:02:29,250 --> 00:02:31,625
fruit. Kind of. I don't know that much
71
00:02:31,625 --> 00:02:32,958
backlash. Certainly,
72
00:02:33,208 --> 00:02:35,000
no Assassin's Creed shadows levels of
73
00:02:35,000 --> 00:02:40,291
backlash, but it didn't do too well.
74
00:02:40,541 --> 00:02:42,208
Like, review score wise.
75
00:02:42,583 --> 00:02:44,583
And I don't, I don't see why, to be
76
00:02:44,583 --> 00:02:45,916
honest. I thought the game was fine.
77
00:02:47,500 --> 00:02:48,333
Except for the performance
78
00:02:48,416 --> 00:02:51,750
of PC. Yeah. I mean, performance on PC is
79
00:02:51,750 --> 00:02:58,333
always a contentious topic. Yeah. It
80
00:02:58,333 --> 00:02:59,500
really is hard because
81
00:03:00,250 --> 00:03:02,125
do you review the performance and the
82
00:03:02,125 --> 00:03:06,500
game? Like, it's so hard because with
83
00:03:06,500 --> 00:03:07,750
reviews, I'd prefer to
84
00:03:07,750 --> 00:03:10,000
rate, when I've done reviews in the past,
85
00:03:10,708 --> 00:03:13,000
review the content, the
86
00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:14,625
play style, you know, just the,
87
00:03:15,208 --> 00:03:16,916
how well it plays, the gameplay that is.
88
00:03:18,000 --> 00:03:19,500
And then like, performance is a little
89
00:03:19,500 --> 00:03:20,666
bit more towards the
90
00:03:20,875 --> 00:03:22,625
end. And I'll still knock it a little
91
00:03:22,625 --> 00:03:25,375
bit. Like, but hey, if you up the
92
00:03:25,375 --> 00:03:26,625
performance, I might change
93
00:03:26,625 --> 00:03:31,458
my score. And so, because it's something
94
00:03:31,458 --> 00:03:33,000
they can fix. Just knock it
95
00:03:33,000 --> 00:03:33,958
so that it hurts them a little
96
00:03:33,958 --> 00:03:37,541
bit, but they need to fix it. Yes. And
97
00:03:37,541 --> 00:03:38,708
also, I mean, this is
98
00:03:38,708 --> 00:03:40,375
just me, but I've very rarely
99
00:03:40,500 --> 00:03:42,750
found games that are like 10 out of 10,
100
00:03:42,750 --> 00:03:44,333
but run terribly on PC.
101
00:03:45,083 --> 00:03:46,125
This is my personal opinion.
102
00:03:47,791 --> 00:03:50,291
Cyberpunk. Okay. I'll say Cyberpunk was a
103
00:03:50,291 --> 00:03:51,833
10 out of 10 for me and it
104
00:03:51,833 --> 00:03:54,000
ran horrible, but I had a 3090,
105
00:03:54,000 --> 00:03:56,375
so I powered through it. Okay. That's
106
00:03:56,375 --> 00:04:00,500
like you did. That is me.
107
00:04:00,500 --> 00:04:02,416
That is me. I think Cyberpunk
108
00:04:02,541 --> 00:04:04,416
eventually became like a nine out of 10
109
00:04:04,416 --> 00:04:07,750
in my book, but it's a big
110
00:04:07,750 --> 00:04:10,291
sci-fi and Cyberpunk style
111
00:04:10,416 --> 00:04:15,500
fan. So yeah, speaking of when I, when I
112
00:04:15,500 --> 00:04:16,500
like played Cyberpunk
113
00:04:16,500 --> 00:04:17,875
for the first time, I was,
114
00:04:18,041 --> 00:04:19,500
you know, I've always been a Linux guy
115
00:04:19,500 --> 00:04:20,833
and so I tried it on
116
00:04:20,833 --> 00:04:22,333
Linux and it was even worse.
117
00:04:22,875 --> 00:04:27,291
You know, PlayStation four, whatever. And
118
00:04:27,291 --> 00:04:31,375
I had no NPCs. Dude, and
119
00:04:31,375 --> 00:04:32,916
the NPCs were falling through
120
00:04:32,916 --> 00:04:35,041
the street and like they would like into
121
00:04:35,041 --> 00:04:36,000
the street and fall
122
00:04:36,000 --> 00:04:37,750
through. It was hilarious. I
123
00:04:37,750 --> 00:04:39,208
did a line stream of it and I was like,
124
00:04:39,208 --> 00:04:39,791
yeah, I'm going to get a
125
00:04:39,791 --> 00:04:41,791
refund on this. That's crazy.
126
00:04:43,333 --> 00:04:44,916
I want that mode. I like playing through
127
00:04:44,916 --> 00:04:45,750
stuff like that. I don't
128
00:04:45,750 --> 00:04:46,375
want to play through the whole
129
00:04:46,375 --> 00:04:48,333
game, but that'd be fun. I want to move
130
00:04:48,333 --> 00:04:51,208
down. So speaking of
131
00:04:51,208 --> 00:04:53,416
Cyberpunk, they just announced a new
132
00:04:53,416 --> 00:04:57,208
Ghost in the Shell anime and it looks
133
00:04:57,208 --> 00:04:59,833
like the manga, the manga's
134
00:04:59,833 --> 00:05:00,958
art style as opposed to like
135
00:05:01,916 --> 00:05:03,416
the one from the nineties
136
00:05:03,416 --> 00:05:04,666
that everyone knows about.
137
00:05:06,250 --> 00:05:08,416
Yeah, that's an old manga too.
138
00:05:09,250 --> 00:05:10,541
Yeah, it's really, yeah, it's quite old.
139
00:05:11,416 --> 00:05:16,000
Honestly, man, Cyberpunk at
140
00:05:16,000 --> 00:05:17,541
launch was like at most an
141
00:05:17,541 --> 00:05:19,333
eight out of 10 and that's before you
142
00:05:19,333 --> 00:05:20,875
take into account any of the bugs and
143
00:05:20,875 --> 00:05:21,916
shit that happened on
144
00:05:21,916 --> 00:05:23,625
everything back in the end.
145
00:05:24,666 --> 00:05:26,583
I didn't have that many issues. Honestly,
146
00:05:26,583 --> 00:05:27,833
like it worked pretty good
147
00:05:27,833 --> 00:05:28,875
for me. There's a couple of
148
00:05:29,125 --> 00:05:30,833
bugs, but if you're going to knock that,
149
00:05:31,541 --> 00:05:33,291
then you need to knock all the Grand
150
00:05:33,291 --> 00:05:34,000
Theft Auto's that have
151
00:05:34,250 --> 00:05:36,166
released pretty much every game that's
152
00:05:36,166 --> 00:05:37,041
open world that's released,
153
00:05:37,333 --> 00:05:38,541
you have to knock because some
154
00:05:38,541 --> 00:05:41,125
people forget open world games tend to
155
00:05:41,125 --> 00:05:43,041
come fairly buggy almost.
156
00:05:43,416 --> 00:05:45,416
I agree. I agree with that statement.
157
00:05:45,750 --> 00:05:48,583
Yeah, I don't, I don't,
158
00:05:48,583 --> 00:05:49,541
Grand Theft Auto's are super
159
00:05:49,541 --> 00:05:53,208
buggy. I do remember it. And people, but
160
00:05:53,208 --> 00:05:53,875
people tend to forget
161
00:05:53,875 --> 00:05:55,250
that stuff because, you know,
162
00:05:55,375 --> 00:05:57,791
they're also super detailed as well. Like
163
00:05:57,791 --> 00:05:59,958
Red Dead Redemption 2,
164
00:06:00,208 --> 00:06:01,000
people can still consider
165
00:06:01,000 --> 00:06:02,250
to be some of the greatest games ever
166
00:06:02,250 --> 00:06:04,125
made, but it's also still a
167
00:06:04,125 --> 00:06:05,083
little buggy in my opinion.
168
00:06:06,166 --> 00:06:06,708
A little buggy.
169
00:06:06,958 --> 00:06:10,708
It's open world is such a hard one to
170
00:06:10,708 --> 00:06:13,916
fine tune. And every once in
171
00:06:13,916 --> 00:06:14,791
a while I'll see a game that
172
00:06:14,875 --> 00:06:16,625
does a pretty good job of not having too
173
00:06:16,625 --> 00:06:18,083
many bugs, but it's really hard,
174
00:06:18,083 --> 00:06:18,708
especially if you're
175
00:06:18,708 --> 00:06:20,458
running your own engine, which most of
176
00:06:20,458 --> 00:06:21,583
these places tend to do.
177
00:06:21,833 --> 00:06:23,500
Yeah.
178
00:06:25,333 --> 00:06:25,916
James, what have you
179
00:06:25,916 --> 00:06:26,666
been playing this week?
180
00:06:28,125 --> 00:06:32,416
I played on the plane. I loaded up my
181
00:06:32,416 --> 00:06:33,291
steam deck because I went
182
00:06:33,291 --> 00:06:34,750
on a work trip to Atlanta.
183
00:06:35,541 --> 00:06:37,583
And I loaded up my steam deck with all
184
00:06:37,583 --> 00:06:38,666
these games I was going
185
00:06:38,666 --> 00:06:39,666
to play. And then I like
186
00:06:39,666 --> 00:06:42,500
remembered I needed to do my taxes. So I
187
00:06:42,500 --> 00:06:44,166
played the tax game and I
188
00:06:44,166 --> 00:06:45,250
did those while I was on my
189
00:06:45,250 --> 00:06:47,041
four hour of height. I got it.
190
00:06:47,250 --> 00:06:51,791
Oh, no. You gave on your way back at least.
191
00:06:52,791 --> 00:06:58,166
Um, yes, I played. What did I play?
192
00:07:00,000 --> 00:07:01,583
I don't even remember. I've been playing
193
00:07:01,583 --> 00:07:03,166
through a couple of different games, just
194
00:07:03,500 --> 00:07:05,666
more, more or less like having fun
195
00:07:05,666 --> 00:07:06,583
testing them out on the steam
196
00:07:06,583 --> 00:07:07,916
deck. And I just can't remember
197
00:07:07,916 --> 00:07:11,000
what I played. So that wasn't a bad job
198
00:07:11,000 --> 00:07:12,041
of saying what I played.
199
00:07:12,458 --> 00:07:14,333
Was it an indie game you played or a
200
00:07:14,333 --> 00:07:15,416
triple A game you played?
201
00:07:15,666 --> 00:07:20,541
Oh, well, I died. I'm drawing a blank.
202
00:07:20,791 --> 00:07:21,791
Obviously, it wasn't that memorable.
203
00:07:24,000 --> 00:07:24,875
What was it?
204
00:07:25,333 --> 00:07:27,333
Yeah, I don't know. I'll remember
205
00:07:27,333 --> 00:07:30,000
eventually. But yeah, no, I did that.
206
00:07:30,333 --> 00:07:31,791
What was probably because I was watching
207
00:07:31,791 --> 00:07:33,458
something while I was
208
00:07:33,458 --> 00:07:35,000
playing. So I was distracted.
209
00:07:37,458 --> 00:07:38,083
Were you watching an
210
00:07:38,083 --> 00:07:39,000
airplane movie or something?
211
00:07:40,000 --> 00:07:43,208
No, I never watched anything on screen. I
212
00:07:43,208 --> 00:07:44,458
always bring my iPad or
213
00:07:44,458 --> 00:07:45,333
my phone or something.
214
00:07:45,375 --> 00:07:49,208
Else I have cashed. So I don't remember
215
00:07:49,208 --> 00:07:50,000
what I was watching.
216
00:07:50,416 --> 00:07:52,500
Damn. Must have been a hell of a trip.
217
00:07:53,041 --> 00:07:55,583
Well, yeah, I didn't get the best sleep.
218
00:07:56,291 --> 00:07:57,416
Yeah, I mean, this shit
219
00:07:57,416 --> 00:07:58,541
sounds super stressful.
220
00:07:58,541 --> 00:08:00,458
We can't even remember what you watched
221
00:08:00,458 --> 00:08:01,500
or played, to be honest.
222
00:08:02,000 --> 00:08:04,208
It's not stressful. I'm just still
223
00:08:04,208 --> 00:08:05,500
recovering from the trip.
224
00:08:06,166 --> 00:08:08,000
And I didn't get good sleep last night.
225
00:08:08,625 --> 00:08:08,833
Damn.
226
00:08:08,875 --> 00:08:11,375
But yeah, it is what it is. It was it was
227
00:08:11,375 --> 00:08:13,041
a fun week for, you
228
00:08:13,041 --> 00:08:14,083
know, besides, I guess.
229
00:08:15,833 --> 00:08:16,583
I have to do taxes.
230
00:08:18,416 --> 00:08:18,583
Yeah.
231
00:08:19,875 --> 00:08:22,791
So my accountant had to file extensions
232
00:08:22,791 --> 00:08:26,000
for my taxes because, you know,
233
00:08:26,875 --> 00:08:27,625
when you work for yourself,
234
00:08:27,625 --> 00:08:28,791
it gets really complicated.
235
00:08:30,375 --> 00:08:33,708
It does. I have both a W2 and then I also
236
00:08:33,708 --> 00:08:35,791
had a bunch of other
237
00:08:35,791 --> 00:08:37,500
1099s and stuff because I do
238
00:08:37,583 --> 00:08:40,125
also side work and I've had clients
239
00:08:40,125 --> 00:08:41,166
forever. And that gets
240
00:08:41,166 --> 00:08:42,375
really messy between those two.
241
00:08:43,208 --> 00:08:43,541
Now.
242
00:08:44,000 --> 00:08:45,500
So what did you so what
243
00:08:45,500 --> 00:08:46,416
did you play, Gardner?
244
00:08:48,500 --> 00:08:51,458
So I have been playing some Nintendo
245
00:08:51,458 --> 00:08:53,875
games for an upcoming
246
00:08:53,875 --> 00:08:55,375
video that I'm working on.
247
00:08:55,375 --> 00:08:57,125
It's going to be very different. I showed
248
00:08:57,125 --> 00:08:58,708
these guys a preview of it.
249
00:08:59,166 --> 00:09:00,500
And it's very different from anything
250
00:09:00,500 --> 00:09:01,791
I've ever done, wouldn't you say?
251
00:09:02,500 --> 00:09:02,875
Oh, yeah.
252
00:09:03,333 --> 00:09:03,583
Yeah.
253
00:09:03,958 --> 00:09:04,666
It looked interesting.
254
00:09:05,208 --> 00:09:05,916
It was exciting.
255
00:09:06,333 --> 00:09:07,041
It's going to be a fun ride.
256
00:09:07,583 --> 00:09:10,000
It will. It's more of like a kind of a
257
00:09:10,000 --> 00:09:11,750
contemporary video essay style.
258
00:09:12,625 --> 00:09:15,083
And I'm super stoked about it.
259
00:09:15,500 --> 00:09:16,375
So I've been capturing
260
00:09:16,375 --> 00:09:17,250
some footage for that.
261
00:09:17,875 --> 00:09:20,416
But I also have my little my
262
00:09:20,416 --> 00:09:22,291
old IBM app Tiva down here.
263
00:09:22,291 --> 00:09:23,708
You can barely see it, but
264
00:09:23,708 --> 00:09:26,458
this is an old Windows 98 PC.
265
00:09:27,500 --> 00:09:29,791
It's got an AMD K9 and I've been playing.
266
00:09:30,416 --> 00:09:31,166
Well, I actually haven't
267
00:09:31,166 --> 00:09:32,166
been playing anything on it.
268
00:09:32,375 --> 00:09:35,541
I installed an app for a different video
269
00:09:35,541 --> 00:09:36,541
that I'm working on.
270
00:09:37,125 --> 00:09:38,625
And the app is called
271
00:09:38,625 --> 00:09:40,666
Mastodon for work groups.
272
00:09:41,250 --> 00:09:41,500
What?
273
00:09:45,291 --> 00:09:47,041
Dude, it is awesome.
274
00:09:47,041 --> 00:09:48,916
Let me tell you, I've had
275
00:09:48,916 --> 00:09:49,916
trouble getting it working.
276
00:09:50,458 --> 00:09:51,625
But essentially, it's a
277
00:09:51,625 --> 00:09:54,208
Mastodon client for Windows 98.
278
00:09:55,583 --> 00:09:57,458
And it's so cool.
279
00:09:58,333 --> 00:09:58,875
Windows 98.
280
00:09:59,166 --> 00:09:59,916
That's crazy.
281
00:10:00,833 --> 00:10:01,250
Holy shit.
282
00:10:01,250 --> 00:10:03,000
And it required it required setting up
283
00:10:03,000 --> 00:10:04,125
some other infrastructure on
284
00:10:04,125 --> 00:10:05,500
my home lab in order to get it
285
00:10:05,500 --> 00:10:07,708
working on on on the actual 98 PC.
286
00:10:08,708 --> 00:10:09,458
And I've had trouble
287
00:10:09,458 --> 00:10:11,208
capturing footage from this, too.
288
00:10:11,291 --> 00:10:12,666
So I also installed it
289
00:10:12,666 --> 00:10:15,458
on an 86 box emulator.
290
00:10:17,666 --> 00:10:19,791
But it didn't work at all on the emulator
291
00:10:19,791 --> 00:10:21,625
for some reason, but it works on this PC.
292
00:10:21,875 --> 00:10:22,958
So I'm trying to figure out how to
293
00:10:22,958 --> 00:10:25,250
actually like capture footage from it,
294
00:10:25,250 --> 00:10:27,000
because I'm excited to
295
00:10:27,000 --> 00:10:28,416
show people this this app.
296
00:10:30,291 --> 00:10:30,958
But yeah, it's been
297
00:10:30,958 --> 00:10:31,750
it's been a lot of fun.
298
00:10:32,000 --> 00:10:32,541
I've been I've been
299
00:10:32,541 --> 00:10:33,500
having a good time this week.
300
00:10:34,416 --> 00:10:36,000
Now I want to know what it would look
301
00:10:36,000 --> 00:10:37,166
like like Mastodon would
302
00:10:37,166 --> 00:10:38,333
look like on an MS-DOS.
303
00:10:39,333 --> 00:10:40,708
There is a DOS emulator.
304
00:10:41,541 --> 00:10:44,125
A DOS client for Mastodon.
305
00:10:44,500 --> 00:10:45,458
And there's also there's
306
00:10:45,458 --> 00:10:46,875
also one called Maxedodon.
307
00:10:47,375 --> 00:10:50,791
And I have a classic G3 Mac iMac out
308
00:10:50,791 --> 00:10:52,916
there that the bezel is
309
00:10:52,916 --> 00:10:54,625
smashed like the inner bezel.
310
00:10:55,083 --> 00:10:57,500
And I tried to 3D print a
311
00:10:57,500 --> 00:10:58,666
replacement bezel for it.
312
00:10:58,958 --> 00:11:00,666
And that ended up like
313
00:11:00,666 --> 00:11:03,208
releasing from the print bed.
314
00:11:03,750 --> 00:11:05,125
And then I ended up getting a blob of
315
00:11:05,125 --> 00:11:07,833
death on the inside of my print head
316
00:11:07,833 --> 00:11:09,166
because I like went to bed.
317
00:11:10,000 --> 00:11:11,166
So I got to fix that
318
00:11:11,166 --> 00:11:13,000
before I can show off Maxedodon.
319
00:11:13,375 --> 00:11:15,833
But it's it's pretty neat, though, like
320
00:11:15,833 --> 00:11:17,166
these clients for
321
00:11:17,166 --> 00:11:18,791
Mastodon are just awesome.
322
00:11:19,166 --> 00:11:21,666
And it's going to be a big, big, big
323
00:11:21,666 --> 00:11:22,708
video when I get it done.
324
00:11:23,541 --> 00:11:25,250
Oh, dude, I'm going to awesome.
325
00:11:25,583 --> 00:11:26,708
I'm working on a video, too.
326
00:11:27,875 --> 00:11:28,750
Yeah, it's about the
327
00:11:28,750 --> 00:11:29,958
Steam Deck's biggest problem.
328
00:11:31,041 --> 00:11:32,916
Anti anti cheat games.
329
00:11:34,416 --> 00:11:34,708
Yes.
330
00:11:35,458 --> 00:11:36,625
Ooh, that is.
331
00:11:37,000 --> 00:11:38,208
Yeah, that's going to be a good video.
332
00:11:38,583 --> 00:11:40,125
Bungie's new game marathon.
333
00:11:40,791 --> 00:11:42,208
This is not topic, by the way.
334
00:11:43,000 --> 00:11:44,083
But it's new game marathon has been
335
00:11:44,083 --> 00:11:45,291
confirmed to use Badly.
336
00:11:46,000 --> 00:11:49,416
And as we know, Destiny 2 does not
337
00:11:49,416 --> 00:11:51,416
support Steam Deck despite the fact that
338
00:11:51,416 --> 00:11:52,333
I think it'd be a good fit.
339
00:11:54,583 --> 00:11:54,833
Yeah.
340
00:11:56,583 --> 00:11:59,291
I mean, you know, I kind of have come
341
00:11:59,291 --> 00:12:01,708
full circle when it comes to
342
00:12:01,708 --> 00:12:03,458
the to the anti-cheat thing.
343
00:12:03,458 --> 00:12:04,125
And we don't have to talk
344
00:12:04,125 --> 00:12:05,000
about this if you don't want.
345
00:12:05,041 --> 00:12:06,375
But I don't know.
346
00:12:06,375 --> 00:12:07,958
I have I have different opinions than I
347
00:12:07,958 --> 00:12:10,416
used to about anti cheat on Linux on
348
00:12:12,791 --> 00:12:13,958
Steam Deck specifically.
349
00:12:15,291 --> 00:12:16,041
Yeah.
350
00:12:16,083 --> 00:12:18,083
Well, what's your opinion?
351
00:12:18,083 --> 00:12:18,916
What's what's changed?
352
00:12:19,125 --> 00:12:22,791
I know, like you like and I and the DRM.
353
00:12:23,458 --> 00:12:25,458
Well, OK, so there's a couple of things.
354
00:12:25,458 --> 00:12:29,583
So the first thing is that it's not it's
355
00:12:29,583 --> 00:12:31,000
not really as simple as
356
00:12:31,000 --> 00:12:32,708
just checking a box in the
357
00:12:33,208 --> 00:12:35,458
back end of these any cheat systems to
358
00:12:35,458 --> 00:12:36,291
enable it for Linux.
359
00:12:36,500 --> 00:12:37,416
Like there's actual work
360
00:12:37,416 --> 00:12:38,625
that developers have to do.
361
00:12:38,708 --> 00:12:40,750
And I and it costs them
362
00:12:40,750 --> 00:12:43,750
money to actually support Linux.
363
00:12:44,166 --> 00:12:47,333
So I understand like if if these any
364
00:12:47,333 --> 00:12:49,458
cheat solutions aren't
365
00:12:49,458 --> 00:12:50,833
up to snuff on Linux,
366
00:12:50,833 --> 00:12:52,166
which doesn't sound like they are.
367
00:12:52,166 --> 00:12:53,458
Most people, most companies
368
00:12:53,458 --> 00:12:56,500
are saying that I don't know.
369
00:12:56,500 --> 00:12:57,583
I don't know who to believe about it.
370
00:12:57,625 --> 00:13:00,791
But I'm telling I do know that it's not
371
00:13:00,791 --> 00:13:03,000
as simple as I used to think
372
00:13:03,000 --> 00:13:05,083
it was for for them to support
373
00:13:05,083 --> 00:13:08,958
Linux. So I understand not doing it out
374
00:13:08,958 --> 00:13:10,000
of fear or whatever.
375
00:13:10,666 --> 00:13:13,541
I mean, I think the blame should I think
376
00:13:13,541 --> 00:13:14,541
in this case, the blame
377
00:13:14,541 --> 00:13:16,958
lies on Valve for because they
378
00:13:16,958 --> 00:13:18,541
they put they wrote in their blog post
379
00:13:18,541 --> 00:13:20,625
about this, that developers
380
00:13:20,625 --> 00:13:22,708
just need to click a switch and
381
00:13:22,708 --> 00:13:24,375
then it just works all of a sudden, which
382
00:13:24,375 --> 00:13:26,958
I mean, I guess in a technical sense,
383
00:13:26,958 --> 00:13:29,375
in a quote unquote work, but like you
384
00:13:29,375 --> 00:13:31,875
still got to do a lot of work to make it
385
00:13:32,583 --> 00:13:33,666
optimized for Linux.
386
00:13:35,333 --> 00:13:38,291
And yeah, I mean, if this many developers
387
00:13:38,291 --> 00:13:40,625
are saying that it's weak
388
00:13:40,625 --> 00:13:41,708
and that there's a bunch
389
00:13:41,708 --> 00:13:43,583
of like Linux cheaters and
390
00:13:43,583 --> 00:13:45,375
they can't all be wrong, right?
391
00:13:48,875 --> 00:13:52,083
It's I honestly think they should just
392
00:13:52,083 --> 00:13:52,916
split them up if you
393
00:13:52,916 --> 00:13:54,625
really want to play it safe,
394
00:13:54,791 --> 00:13:57,375
either go the route of not have a big
395
00:13:57,375 --> 00:13:58,458
cross platform in the
396
00:13:58,458 --> 00:13:59,625
sense of Linux and Windows,
397
00:14:00,541 --> 00:14:03,041
and at least go off that and then or and
398
00:14:03,041 --> 00:14:04,833
or open up some type
399
00:14:04,833 --> 00:14:06,875
like, maybe we need an open
400
00:14:06,875 --> 00:14:08,875
sort more of an open source anti cheat
401
00:14:08,875 --> 00:14:11,166
client for Linux and then
402
00:14:11,166 --> 00:14:12,291
let everyone that's Linux
403
00:14:12,291 --> 00:14:13,833
play with each other. I think there's
404
00:14:13,833 --> 00:14:14,791
options. There's ways
405
00:14:14,791 --> 00:14:16,250
that we can go about it.
406
00:14:17,541 --> 00:14:21,541
But it I'd like to see more companies
407
00:14:21,541 --> 00:14:22,416
invest in it and know
408
00:14:22,416 --> 00:14:23,458
that this is kind of like
409
00:14:24,791 --> 00:14:26,875
this would open up and it'd become less
410
00:14:26,875 --> 00:14:27,958
of a problem over time
411
00:14:27,958 --> 00:14:29,000
as more and more people
412
00:14:29,666 --> 00:14:31,583
game on Linux. And at the end of the day,
413
00:14:31,916 --> 00:14:32,541
they'll probably end up
414
00:14:32,541 --> 00:14:33,791
with a more secure platform.
415
00:14:33,791 --> 00:14:37,500
But yeah, I hear it's it's there.
416
00:14:37,666 --> 00:14:39,500
There's two things that I think right,
417
00:14:39,500 --> 00:14:40,666
like some of the blame
418
00:14:40,666 --> 00:14:42,708
does lie at Val's feet, right?
419
00:14:42,958 --> 00:14:45,541
Because they're providing proton and
420
00:14:45,541 --> 00:14:47,250
that's like Linux support
421
00:14:47,250 --> 00:14:48,541
for Windows clients, right?
422
00:14:49,500 --> 00:14:52,833
But the big problem lies with the actual
423
00:14:52,833 --> 00:14:53,833
vendors of the anti
424
00:14:53,833 --> 00:14:54,791
cheat software itself,
425
00:14:55,041 --> 00:14:57,333
because they're providing the you know,
426
00:14:57,333 --> 00:14:58,791
it's like it's like
427
00:14:58,791 --> 00:15:00,208
easy anti cheat for Linux,
428
00:15:00,625 --> 00:15:03,833
but it doesn't actually behave the same
429
00:15:03,833 --> 00:15:05,666
way. It's like there's it's not feature
430
00:15:06,000 --> 00:15:09,333
parody with Windows. So like it's is it
431
00:15:09,333 --> 00:15:10,333
false advertising? I don't
432
00:15:10,333 --> 00:15:11,208
know what the word would be.
433
00:15:11,708 --> 00:15:14,625
But like they're I mean, and even Tim
434
00:15:14,625 --> 00:15:16,250
Sweeney has said, like easy
435
00:15:16,250 --> 00:15:17,916
anti cheat on Linux, you know,
436
00:15:17,958 --> 00:15:19,708
is not good enough for us to release
437
00:15:19,708 --> 00:15:22,333
Fortnite on Linux. So therefore, you
438
00:15:22,333 --> 00:15:22,916
know, we're not going
439
00:15:22,916 --> 00:15:24,708
to do it. But it's like, that's your own
440
00:15:24,708 --> 00:15:26,000
product, my guy, like you're
441
00:15:26,000 --> 00:15:28,208
going to bad mouth that, you
442
00:15:28,208 --> 00:15:30,375
know, it's their fault. It really is, you
443
00:15:30,375 --> 00:15:32,000
know, they could just check
444
00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:33,583
a box. They could make it as
445
00:15:33,583 --> 00:15:37,000
easy as checking a box in their back end
446
00:15:37,000 --> 00:15:38,208
to allow developers to
447
00:15:38,208 --> 00:15:40,041
support Linux through proton or
448
00:15:40,083 --> 00:15:43,083
whatever. But they don't. And it's in I
449
00:15:43,083 --> 00:15:46,500
think part of it is like, at least
450
00:15:46,500 --> 00:15:49,000
incompetence on some
451
00:15:49,000 --> 00:15:51,916
level, like they, you know, it's hard for
452
00:15:51,916 --> 00:15:54,708
them to find developers who
453
00:15:54,708 --> 00:15:56,166
actually know enough about
454
00:15:56,166 --> 00:16:00,041
the Linux kernel, and can afford to work
455
00:16:00,041 --> 00:16:02,208
at the lower price point in
456
00:16:02,208 --> 00:16:03,708
the games industry than they
457
00:16:03,708 --> 00:16:05,458
would making it, you know, as a server
458
00:16:05,458 --> 00:16:06,625
admin, you know what I'm
459
00:16:06,625 --> 00:16:08,875
saying? Like, I don't know,
460
00:16:08,875 --> 00:16:10,791
some of it is that but also some of it
461
00:16:10,791 --> 00:16:15,625
is, I believe it's epic,
462
00:16:15,625 --> 00:16:17,000
just wanting to sabotage Linux,
463
00:16:17,500 --> 00:16:21,125
because it's valve. Yeah, but yeah, that
464
00:16:21,125 --> 00:16:23,125
makes sense. So that's
465
00:16:23,125 --> 00:16:24,500
where my head's at. So I think
466
00:16:24,500 --> 00:16:27,750
the ultimate blame lies with the cheat
467
00:16:27,750 --> 00:16:32,083
makers and the guys who pay for cheats.
468
00:16:32,375 --> 00:16:34,208
Because you're always gonna have that
469
00:16:34,208 --> 00:16:35,750
though, you're always gonna have it. Yes.
470
00:16:35,791 --> 00:16:38,666
But I think I think really, like, we're
471
00:16:38,666 --> 00:16:42,458
like, you, it does fall on the cheat
472
00:16:42,458 --> 00:16:43,208
makers, right? Like,
473
00:16:43,208 --> 00:16:45,000
they're the problem. But the problem
474
00:16:45,000 --> 00:16:47,041
really comes from the fact that that's
475
00:16:47,041 --> 00:16:48,416
always going to exist,
476
00:16:48,708 --> 00:16:51,708
right? And these companies are trying to,
477
00:16:51,708 --> 00:16:54,500
like, make these games that
478
00:16:54,500 --> 00:16:56,208
where they're always going
479
00:16:56,208 --> 00:16:58,458
to have that, like, malicious force on
480
00:16:58,458 --> 00:16:59,000
the earth, like this
481
00:16:59,000 --> 00:17:01,416
malignancy on the periphery of their
482
00:17:01,458 --> 00:17:04,083
games. And that if they don't continue to
483
00:17:04,083 --> 00:17:05,833
invest tons of money, and
484
00:17:05,833 --> 00:17:09,291
lock down systems and invest
485
00:17:09,291 --> 00:17:11,708
and invest and invest in like, combating
486
00:17:11,708 --> 00:17:15,000
them, then there won't be a
487
00:17:15,000 --> 00:17:16,083
player base for their game.
488
00:17:16,500 --> 00:17:17,625
And I just I think that it's
489
00:17:17,625 --> 00:17:18,750
unsustainable. Like, I
490
00:17:18,750 --> 00:17:20,666
honestly think that online games,
491
00:17:21,000 --> 00:17:22,958
the way they exist now are completely
492
00:17:22,958 --> 00:17:27,708
unsustainable. And that's, I think that's
493
00:17:27,708 --> 00:17:28,916
where my head has gone
494
00:17:29,000 --> 00:17:31,375
from before it was like, we just need to
495
00:17:31,375 --> 00:17:32,458
support all the platforms
496
00:17:32,458 --> 00:17:33,791
and including Linux. And now
497
00:17:33,791 --> 00:17:35,583
it's like, now we need to be done with
498
00:17:35,583 --> 00:17:36,666
online games as they exist
499
00:17:36,666 --> 00:17:38,041
today, because it's just not going
500
00:17:38,041 --> 00:17:43,041
to work. Yeah, from my understanding, a
501
00:17:43,041 --> 00:17:43,958
lot of those anti cheat
502
00:17:43,958 --> 00:17:47,500
programs, the vendors, they're
503
00:17:47,500 --> 00:17:50,208
not actually that great anyways, like,
504
00:17:50,208 --> 00:17:52,541
no, they're always like, the end, these
505
00:17:52,541 --> 00:17:53,083
companies will go with
506
00:17:53,125 --> 00:17:54,750
the cheapest option. So it's not like
507
00:17:54,750 --> 00:17:58,250
it's doing the best anyways. Yeah. I
508
00:17:58,250 --> 00:17:59,500
don't play a lot. Yeah.
509
00:17:59,625 --> 00:18:02,875
And frankly, the fact is, these these
510
00:18:02,875 --> 00:18:05,250
vendors of these end cheat
511
00:18:05,250 --> 00:18:08,125
software, you know, the only
512
00:18:08,166 --> 00:18:09,750
power that they have, I mean, it's clear
513
00:18:09,750 --> 00:18:11,208
to me, the only power that
514
00:18:11,208 --> 00:18:12,458
the energy vendors have is
515
00:18:12,458 --> 00:18:15,041
because they their software exists at the
516
00:18:15,041 --> 00:18:16,125
kernel level on Windows.
517
00:18:16,666 --> 00:18:17,916
That's the only reason that
518
00:18:17,916 --> 00:18:20,416
they're effective at all, because they
519
00:18:20,416 --> 00:18:21,291
don't exist at the kernel
520
00:18:21,291 --> 00:18:24,416
level on Linux. And they're
521
00:18:24,416 --> 00:18:26,416
they're junk on Linux. So it's like,
522
00:18:26,750 --> 00:18:28,541
they're not doing anything
523
00:18:28,541 --> 00:18:30,083
special. It's just that their,
524
00:18:30,083 --> 00:18:33,875
their app has higher privilege. That's so
525
00:18:33,875 --> 00:18:35,916
and it can only escalate
526
00:18:35,916 --> 00:18:36,916
from there, right? Like,
527
00:18:36,916 --> 00:18:40,791
there is no going back to, like, low,
528
00:18:40,791 --> 00:18:42,083
like user space level
529
00:18:42,083 --> 00:18:44,458
privileges for any cheat, where the
530
00:18:44,666 --> 00:18:46,750
cheating software can interfere with the
531
00:18:46,750 --> 00:18:49,166
anti cheat. It's just
532
00:18:49,166 --> 00:18:50,541
going to continue escalating.
533
00:18:50,541 --> 00:18:51,333
And that's why I think it's
534
00:18:51,333 --> 00:18:53,750
unsustainable. That is fair. I mean,
535
00:18:53,875 --> 00:18:55,083
we've gotten to the point where
536
00:18:55,083 --> 00:18:57,208
we have two computer cheating, where, you
537
00:18:57,208 --> 00:18:58,666
know, on one computer, you
538
00:18:58,666 --> 00:18:59,791
have the game running on the
539
00:18:59,791 --> 00:19:02,000
other. And on another computer, you have
540
00:19:02,000 --> 00:19:04,000
a software essentially
541
00:19:04,000 --> 00:19:05,708
doing the work. That reminds me,
542
00:19:05,708 --> 00:19:06,958
that reminds me, I was following a
543
00:19:06,958 --> 00:19:08,583
project by a YouTuber, I
544
00:19:08,583 --> 00:19:09,541
can't forget his I can't remember
545
00:19:09,583 --> 00:19:12,041
his name, but he essentially started up
546
00:19:12,041 --> 00:19:13,958
something called Waldo anti
547
00:19:13,958 --> 00:19:16,041
cheat. And it's powered using
548
00:19:16,041 --> 00:19:18,875
AI, instead of, you know, instead of
549
00:19:18,875 --> 00:19:21,500
whatever, however, regular
550
00:19:21,500 --> 00:19:22,791
anti cheat works nowadays,
551
00:19:23,000 --> 00:19:24,250
embedding themselves in the system,
552
00:19:24,250 --> 00:19:26,791
instead, they use AI to determine, you
553
00:19:26,791 --> 00:19:28,208
know, player behavior in
554
00:19:28,208 --> 00:19:30,500
comparison to what should be possible in
555
00:19:30,500 --> 00:19:32,416
game. Nice. And you know,
556
00:19:32,416 --> 00:19:33,000
I know, I know we like to
557
00:19:33,041 --> 00:19:35,583
rag a lot on on AI in their usage,
558
00:19:36,208 --> 00:19:38,083
generative AI, but I think using this
559
00:19:38,083 --> 00:19:39,666
like pattern recognition
560
00:19:40,791 --> 00:19:43,458
for anti cheat is objectively a good
561
00:19:43,458 --> 00:19:46,500
thing. It's one of the good uses for AI
562
00:19:46,500 --> 00:19:47,333
can think of in video
563
00:19:47,333 --> 00:19:50,291
games. And doing it at the server level
564
00:19:50,291 --> 00:19:51,250
rather than on the client
565
00:19:51,250 --> 00:19:53,000
side makes a lot of sense. Yes.
566
00:19:53,708 --> 00:19:55,541
Like doing it on the client is always
567
00:19:55,541 --> 00:19:58,083
going to be inherently less secure. And
568
00:19:58,083 --> 00:20:00,375
yeah, I don't know. I
569
00:20:00,500 --> 00:20:03,625
agree with you. But I take it. They're
570
00:20:03,625 --> 00:20:05,875
just yeah, adaptive programs. I mean,
571
00:20:05,875 --> 00:20:07,375
this is, there's a lot
572
00:20:07,375 --> 00:20:09,083
of you like, I think too many people
573
00:20:09,083 --> 00:20:11,666
scream about AI being like garbage,
574
00:20:11,666 --> 00:20:14,458
whatever, but it has a lot
575
00:20:14,458 --> 00:20:16,458
of, well, we don't even have
576
00:20:16,458 --> 00:20:18,375
traditionally, it's not even real AI. But
577
00:20:18,375 --> 00:20:20,125
you know, the AI that we have
578
00:20:20,166 --> 00:20:22,791
is not, it has a lot of good purposes.
579
00:20:23,125 --> 00:20:24,875
Yeah, once it starts taking jobs or
580
00:20:24,875 --> 00:20:25,916
stealing to, you know,
581
00:20:25,958 --> 00:20:30,083
in order to like, you know, like art,
582
00:20:30,625 --> 00:20:31,625
let's say art, it has to
583
00:20:31,625 --> 00:20:33,000
build off of someone else's and
584
00:20:33,000 --> 00:20:34,833
that's essentially just theft. And so you
585
00:20:34,833 --> 00:20:37,083
have to be right, right, you have to be
586
00:20:37,083 --> 00:20:37,791
careful with it all.
587
00:20:38,000 --> 00:20:40,166
I mean, in my opinion, I think I think
588
00:20:40,166 --> 00:20:41,708
this is okay, because it's
589
00:20:41,708 --> 00:20:44,041
not like you have employees at
590
00:20:44,041 --> 00:20:45,666
like Epic or wherever watch every single
591
00:20:45,666 --> 00:20:46,791
Fortnite match, right? You
592
00:20:46,791 --> 00:20:47,666
don't have like a referee.
593
00:20:48,583 --> 00:20:50,583
Whereas like an actual like sport, you
594
00:20:50,583 --> 00:20:51,833
would have like a referee determine
595
00:20:51,833 --> 00:20:54,041
things. So like having a
596
00:20:54,083 --> 00:20:56,708
sort of AI, having a sort of AI referee
597
00:20:56,708 --> 00:20:59,083
for each match in a game,
598
00:20:59,875 --> 00:21:01,416
I can see it. I can see it
599
00:21:01,416 --> 00:21:04,583
actually doing something. Some cheats and
600
00:21:04,583 --> 00:21:05,375
some hacks are so
601
00:21:05,375 --> 00:21:06,583
sophisticated, meaning they,
602
00:21:07,583 --> 00:21:09,458
it's hard for the, I think a human
603
00:21:09,458 --> 00:21:10,833
detective. So even if they had like a
604
00:21:10,833 --> 00:21:12,916
human referee for each
605
00:21:12,916 --> 00:21:15,333
match, I think a lot, I think it's still
606
00:21:15,333 --> 00:21:16,458
slipped by at times.
607
00:21:17,125 --> 00:21:18,291
Having an AI I think makes a lot
608
00:21:18,333 --> 00:21:22,375
more sense to combat it. Yeah. Yeah. I
609
00:21:22,375 --> 00:21:23,125
mean, it's like how like
610
00:21:23,125 --> 00:21:25,000
sometimes sports you have guys use
611
00:21:25,000 --> 00:21:26,833
steroids and it slips by every now and
612
00:21:26,833 --> 00:21:29,375
then. Yeah. Yeah. Unless
613
00:21:29,375 --> 00:21:31,500
you do like mandated, mandated
614
00:21:31,833 --> 00:21:35,083
testing beforehand. And I kind of want
615
00:21:35,083 --> 00:21:37,000
that to I want the AI side on
616
00:21:37,000 --> 00:21:38,458
the server, maybe even like a
617
00:21:38,458 --> 00:21:41,583
little bit on the on the client. But I
618
00:21:41,583 --> 00:21:45,916
want it to be I would like the option
619
00:21:45,916 --> 00:21:46,791
when I'm playing a game
620
00:21:46,791 --> 00:21:49,416
to just opt in with a universal passport
621
00:21:49,416 --> 00:21:52,458
of this is my identity. I
622
00:21:52,458 --> 00:21:55,416
have one, you know, one identity.
623
00:21:55,625 --> 00:21:57,500
And if you get caught hacking or
624
00:21:57,500 --> 00:21:59,000
cheating, you're done. You can't play
625
00:21:59,000 --> 00:21:59,833
with other people that have
626
00:21:59,833 --> 00:22:01,333
that same identity. We've talked about
627
00:22:01,333 --> 00:22:03,583
that before. Yeah. South
628
00:22:03,583 --> 00:22:06,750
Korea does this. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
629
00:22:06,750 --> 00:22:09,291
You have to use your social. Back in the
630
00:22:09,291 --> 00:22:09,958
day, you had to use your
631
00:22:09,958 --> 00:22:10,875
social security number to,
632
00:22:10,916 --> 00:22:12,500
you know, even make an account for a
633
00:22:12,500 --> 00:22:16,541
game. So and I mean, the good news is
634
00:22:16,541 --> 00:22:18,458
that they don't have to
635
00:22:18,458 --> 00:22:21,666
use anti cheat software like a I think.
636
00:22:21,875 --> 00:22:23,291
Well, I think Lost Ark is
637
00:22:23,291 --> 00:22:24,625
one such a game where like
638
00:22:25,250 --> 00:22:27,833
the Western version uses easy anti cheat,
639
00:22:27,833 --> 00:22:29,416
I believe. Whereas the
640
00:22:29,416 --> 00:22:30,833
like Eastern Korean version
641
00:22:30,833 --> 00:22:33,500
has no anti cheat software and they're
642
00:22:33,500 --> 00:22:35,041
less cheaters because, well,
643
00:22:35,041 --> 00:22:35,750
you know, if you get banned,
644
00:22:35,791 --> 00:22:40,708
you can't play the game at all. Yeah.
645
00:22:41,750 --> 00:22:44,041
It's a spicy topic to start saying
646
00:22:44,041 --> 00:22:45,916
introducing, let's say, a passport or
647
00:22:45,916 --> 00:22:46,875
identification. I know
648
00:22:46,875 --> 00:22:50,208
a lot of people don't like that. And I
649
00:22:50,208 --> 00:22:52,250
mean, it's something that
650
00:22:52,250 --> 00:22:53,583
doesn't have to be governmental.
651
00:22:53,833 --> 00:22:56,541
That could be an ESRB thing and it could
652
00:22:56,541 --> 00:22:59,041
be opted in from like game
653
00:22:59,041 --> 00:23:00,291
studios when they publish their
654
00:23:00,416 --> 00:23:03,833
game. Like, frankly, like that does not
655
00:23:03,833 --> 00:23:06,041
have to be government level,
656
00:23:06,041 --> 00:23:07,166
right? Like you would it could
657
00:23:07,166 --> 00:23:10,000
be a private thing which has its pluses
658
00:23:10,000 --> 00:23:11,000
and minuses. Right.
659
00:23:11,208 --> 00:23:14,041
Yeah. Right. But a government
660
00:23:14,041 --> 00:23:15,791
level would be interesting to them to
661
00:23:15,791 --> 00:23:17,500
just get that involved. I
662
00:23:17,500 --> 00:23:20,958
would want probably a funded
663
00:23:20,958 --> 00:23:26,333
nonprofit by multiple entities that have
664
00:23:26,333 --> 00:23:27,375
like Goodwill, which I
665
00:23:27,375 --> 00:23:28,541
don't know how that works. But
666
00:23:28,541 --> 00:23:30,208
you know, I don't I don't know the ESRB
667
00:23:30,208 --> 00:23:32,000
is very we've talked about
668
00:23:32,000 --> 00:23:34,166
many a time how certain games
669
00:23:34,166 --> 00:23:37,041
get preferential treatment as opposed to
670
00:23:37,041 --> 00:23:38,750
others like Bellotto. I
671
00:23:38,750 --> 00:23:39,916
mean, yeah, that's fair. But
672
00:23:39,916 --> 00:23:42,375
the same time, though, you could spin
673
00:23:42,375 --> 00:23:43,958
this around. I mean, this is going to
674
00:23:43,958 --> 00:23:44,958
protect their interest,
675
00:23:44,958 --> 00:23:47,250
which is maintaining a player base
676
00:23:47,250 --> 00:23:49,833
because, you know, cheating
677
00:23:49,833 --> 00:23:51,375
does damage a player base. People
678
00:23:51,458 --> 00:23:53,500
stop playing games because of cheaters.
679
00:23:53,791 --> 00:23:55,375
So in a way, I can yeah, I
680
00:23:55,375 --> 00:23:58,916
think the USA could very well
681
00:23:59,041 --> 00:24:00,500
do this. I mean, they're not good. I
682
00:24:00,500 --> 00:24:02,458
mean, they haven't yet. I
683
00:24:02,458 --> 00:24:03,125
don't know if they even care
684
00:24:03,125 --> 00:24:04,916
enough to do it yet. But that's something
685
00:24:04,916 --> 00:24:06,166
they certainly could do
686
00:24:06,166 --> 00:24:07,208
if they just realize how
687
00:24:07,208 --> 00:24:09,500
important this is, like a central
688
00:24:09,500 --> 00:24:11,625
database where every game developer
689
00:24:11,625 --> 00:24:14,333
shares game, like shares data.
690
00:24:15,250 --> 00:24:17,291
And if like you get banned in one game,
691
00:24:17,291 --> 00:24:19,208
you can't play anyone else's games.
692
00:24:20,333 --> 00:24:22,541
That'd be kind of interesting to see.
693
00:24:23,125 --> 00:24:25,083
Like if we're really talking about like
694
00:24:25,083 --> 00:24:26,833
open ID, like it doesn't
695
00:24:26,833 --> 00:24:29,333
have to be that, you know,
696
00:24:30,000 --> 00:24:31,625
egregious or whatever. And you would you
697
00:24:31,625 --> 00:24:32,791
would then attach it to
698
00:24:32,791 --> 00:24:34,458
your actual identity. But that
699
00:24:34,458 --> 00:24:38,083
real identity doesn't go out to any other
700
00:24:38,083 --> 00:24:40,208
like party. It stays with
701
00:24:40,208 --> 00:24:42,500
the central authority for
702
00:24:42,500 --> 00:24:45,708
the service. And then that's what keeps
703
00:24:45,708 --> 00:24:46,958
you from like making a new
704
00:24:46,958 --> 00:24:48,125
account with a different identity
705
00:24:48,250 --> 00:24:51,125
or whatever and circumventing a ban.
706
00:24:51,666 --> 00:24:52,875
Yeah. But yeah, I mean, I
707
00:24:52,875 --> 00:24:54,208
don't know. I really I like that
708
00:24:54,208 --> 00:24:56,166
idea. But we have other topics we want to
709
00:24:56,166 --> 00:24:57,708
talk about today. And
710
00:24:57,708 --> 00:24:59,125
this one was not even on our
711
00:24:59,125 --> 00:25:01,583
list. So but it's a good one. It is a
712
00:25:01,583 --> 00:25:03,333
good one. And we talk about
713
00:25:03,333 --> 00:25:05,875
it more, too. But before we get
714
00:25:05,875 --> 00:25:08,041
into those topics, make sure that you
715
00:25:08,041 --> 00:25:10,625
become a subscriber if
716
00:25:10,625 --> 00:25:12,458
it's through YouTube, if it's
717
00:25:12,500 --> 00:25:16,583
through our RSS feed or through what is
718
00:25:16,583 --> 00:25:18,875
it we have Spotify, is that
719
00:25:18,875 --> 00:25:20,208
what it's called? And Apple
720
00:25:20,791 --> 00:25:22,541
podcasts. We're on all the different
721
00:25:22,541 --> 00:25:23,333
services wherever you
722
00:25:23,333 --> 00:25:24,333
get your podcasts from.
723
00:25:26,083 --> 00:25:27,708
Yeah, we're also we're an RSS feed. We're
724
00:25:27,708 --> 00:25:28,833
also on the fetaverse,
725
00:25:28,833 --> 00:25:30,125
which you can find a link below.
726
00:25:30,125 --> 00:25:31,041
I'm not going to try and say it again.
727
00:25:31,666 --> 00:25:33,833
Okay, I got it. I got to
728
00:25:33,833 --> 00:25:35,166
ask everyone that listens to
729
00:25:36,083 --> 00:25:39,166
because you you showed recently some
730
00:25:39,166 --> 00:25:41,166
statistics of a lot of
731
00:25:41,166 --> 00:25:42,791
people use for podcasts,
732
00:25:43,666 --> 00:25:46,625
Apple podcasts. Yeah. And a lot of them
733
00:25:46,625 --> 00:25:48,666
are Android users. Yes.
734
00:25:48,916 --> 00:25:51,833
Yeah. I want to know why
735
00:25:51,833 --> 00:25:54,166
people are using I mean, I use Apple
736
00:25:54,166 --> 00:25:55,583
podcast on Apple, but
737
00:25:55,583 --> 00:25:57,333
that's besides the point. Like,
738
00:25:57,333 --> 00:25:58,708
but I have Apple products. I'm wondering
739
00:25:58,708 --> 00:26:00,041
why people on Android
740
00:26:00,041 --> 00:26:02,625
do. That is interesting.
741
00:26:02,666 --> 00:26:04,666
I want to know, like in the comments.
742
00:26:04,666 --> 00:26:05,291
Sorry, I don't mean to
743
00:26:05,291 --> 00:26:06,500
derail us again, but that one's
744
00:26:06,541 --> 00:26:11,250
a weird one. Yeah. Also, I'm going to
745
00:26:11,250 --> 00:26:12,750
share my screen so the
746
00:26:12,750 --> 00:26:13,833
people watching on YouTube
747
00:26:14,625 --> 00:26:16,500
can see this. We've got some we've got
748
00:26:16,500 --> 00:26:18,000
some pretty good numbers
749
00:26:18,000 --> 00:26:19,125
for the last three weeks.
750
00:26:20,083 --> 00:26:21,333
And we've got some comments we're going
751
00:26:21,333 --> 00:26:22,083
to touch on at the end of
752
00:26:22,083 --> 00:26:24,250
the show. But this last week,
753
00:26:24,250 --> 00:26:26,625
we had two thousand downloads. A week
754
00:26:26,625 --> 00:26:28,000
before that, we had two thousand six
755
00:26:28,000 --> 00:26:29,000
hundred. And this is
756
00:26:29,041 --> 00:26:30,291
probably going to continue to grow
757
00:26:30,291 --> 00:26:34,833
because it's been going pretty fast. But
758
00:26:34,833 --> 00:26:36,125
very exciting stuff.
759
00:26:36,125 --> 00:26:37,708
I mean, like everybody seems to be really
760
00:26:37,708 --> 00:26:39,416
enjoying the show. Got it.
761
00:26:39,416 --> 00:26:40,541
And you know, I think it is.
762
00:26:40,541 --> 00:26:42,208
It was my heart. I think it's because you
763
00:26:42,208 --> 00:26:43,625
fixed those Apple podcast
764
00:26:43,625 --> 00:26:46,833
tags because it could be.
765
00:26:46,833 --> 00:26:50,375
Yeah. Yeah. Because like it was we had it
766
00:26:50,375 --> 00:26:51,541
up on Apple podcasts
767
00:26:51,541 --> 00:26:53,000
for a while. And then
768
00:26:53,291 --> 00:26:56,500
like there was a stupid thing that they
769
00:26:56,500 --> 00:26:57,666
sent to my Apple ID
770
00:26:57,666 --> 00:26:58,916
email, which I don't use.
771
00:26:59,416 --> 00:27:01,208
And it was like, hey, by the way, you
772
00:27:01,208 --> 00:27:02,291
need to fill out this one
773
00:27:02,291 --> 00:27:03,500
little extra thing for your
774
00:27:03,500 --> 00:27:05,125
metadata or else we're delisting your
775
00:27:05,125 --> 00:27:07,000
podcast in a week. And I didn't see it
776
00:27:07,000 --> 00:27:07,500
because I don't check
777
00:27:07,500 --> 00:27:10,583
that email very often. So I just had to
778
00:27:10,583 --> 00:27:11,625
do that to get it back on
779
00:27:11,625 --> 00:27:12,708
there. Yeah. And there was one
780
00:27:12,708 --> 00:27:15,208
comment. Thank you. Yeah. I was going to
781
00:27:15,208 --> 00:27:16,791
say you go ahead. I can't remember the commenters name.
782
00:27:17,375 --> 00:27:20,875
I don't either. But thank you. One person
783
00:27:20,875 --> 00:27:23,000
said, yeah, thank you very
784
00:27:23,000 --> 00:27:24,666
much for for that because
785
00:27:24,666 --> 00:27:27,250
I would have kept saying it's on Apple
786
00:27:27,250 --> 00:27:30,583
podcast when it wasn't. I
787
00:27:30,583 --> 00:27:31,958
said it too, dude. Don't worry
788
00:27:31,958 --> 00:27:35,875
about it. Yeah. So the first story this
789
00:27:35,875 --> 00:27:37,666
week, Sony is hiking the cost of the PlayStation five
790
00:27:37,916 --> 00:27:44,000
by 25 percent in the UK, Europe and
791
00:27:44,000 --> 00:27:47,166
Australia. High tech. What
792
00:27:47,166 --> 00:27:50,291
is this about? So as it says,
793
00:27:50,541 --> 00:27:53,750
so it's only the low end one, the all
794
00:27:53,750 --> 00:27:55,125
digital version of the PS
795
00:27:55,125 --> 00:27:56,291
five that's getting a price
796
00:27:56,291 --> 00:28:00,500
increase. But it's going up by the
797
00:28:00,500 --> 00:28:01,166
equivalent of like twenty
798
00:28:01,166 --> 00:28:01,500
five dollars like USD. It's
799
00:28:01,500 --> 00:28:07,625
I don't know. It's not even in the US as
800
00:28:07,625 --> 00:28:09,916
well. And some theories
801
00:28:09,916 --> 00:28:11,166
suggest that they're doing to
802
00:28:11,166 --> 00:28:13,791
quote unquote protect the US market where
803
00:28:13,791 --> 00:28:16,250
like, you know, if the
804
00:28:16,250 --> 00:28:18,541
tariffs do go through and I mean,
805
00:28:18,833 --> 00:28:20,166
it seems like at the very least the
806
00:28:20,166 --> 00:28:22,666
Chinese ones are going through, then, you
807
00:28:22,666 --> 00:28:23,375
know, the prices are
808
00:28:23,375 --> 00:28:25,125
almost certainly going to go up. And
809
00:28:25,125 --> 00:28:26,875
rather than just raise the prices in the
810
00:28:26,875 --> 00:28:27,375
US, they're going to
811
00:28:27,375 --> 00:28:29,833
raise the prices everywhere else as well. And this is this is a very interesting question.
812
00:28:30,041 --> 00:28:33,291
And this is this is this is an aspect of
813
00:28:33,291 --> 00:28:34,125
the tariffs that people
814
00:28:34,125 --> 00:28:35,250
don't typically talk about
815
00:28:35,250 --> 00:28:37,291
because, you know, a lot of people,
816
00:28:37,291 --> 00:28:38,541
especially abroad, think
817
00:28:38,541 --> 00:28:39,833
that tariffs are just going to
818
00:28:39,833 --> 00:28:41,958
affect the US. And in many ways they do.
819
00:28:42,875 --> 00:28:43,458
But at the same time,
820
00:28:43,458 --> 00:28:44,500
though, some companies,
821
00:28:45,083 --> 00:28:46,833
Sony in this case, will raise the prices
822
00:28:46,833 --> 00:28:47,958
for everyone just to
823
00:28:47,958 --> 00:28:49,166
maintain price parity.
824
00:28:52,500 --> 00:28:54,166
Regardless, it makes me think that
825
00:28:54,166 --> 00:28:56,000
they're kind of trying to go
826
00:28:56,000 --> 00:28:57,333
after just making more money,
827
00:28:57,375 --> 00:28:59,708
not necessarily any other reason I don't.
828
00:28:59,708 --> 00:29:02,125
Yeah, certainly. Price
829
00:29:02,125 --> 00:29:03,375
parity, they use different
830
00:29:03,375 --> 00:29:05,291
currencies in us. What the hell? That's
831
00:29:05,291 --> 00:29:08,041
not even the thing. They already are
832
00:29:08,041 --> 00:29:10,000
like, with games alone,
833
00:29:10,000 --> 00:29:11,875
let's say games, they'll be cheaper in
834
00:29:11,875 --> 00:29:12,916
other areas just so that
835
00:29:12,916 --> 00:29:13,666
they know that you can get
836
00:29:13,666 --> 00:29:15,541
sales. Like, I know this is hardware a
837
00:29:15,541 --> 00:29:17,958
little different, but I don't
838
00:29:17,958 --> 00:29:19,166
believe it. It's Christopher
839
00:29:19,500 --> 00:29:22,500
Drings. He's the editor of chief of and
840
00:29:22,500 --> 00:29:23,916
co-founder of the game business. And
841
00:29:23,916 --> 00:29:24,750
that's his speculation.
842
00:29:25,583 --> 00:29:29,625
And he also says the era of consoles
843
00:29:29,625 --> 00:29:30,958
going down in price as a
844
00:29:30,958 --> 00:29:32,875
generation goes on is over.
845
00:29:35,208 --> 00:29:38,791
I mean, that's kind of been over for a
846
00:29:38,791 --> 00:29:40,333
very long time. We have
847
00:29:40,333 --> 00:29:42,500
inflation alone that will
848
00:29:44,083 --> 00:29:47,875
naturally cause that to rise. So that's
849
00:29:47,875 --> 00:29:48,833
an interesting statement
850
00:29:48,833 --> 00:29:49,416
because I don't know if
851
00:29:49,416 --> 00:29:50,916
they've ever, have they ever really gone
852
00:29:50,916 --> 00:29:53,333
down over generations ever since?
853
00:29:53,750 --> 00:29:56,458
Factor inflation, I think that they have.
854
00:29:57,000 --> 00:29:58,916
Well, I think also just the
855
00:29:58,916 --> 00:30:00,125
price, they also just lower
856
00:30:00,125 --> 00:30:03,166
the prices of the consoles to in many
857
00:30:03,166 --> 00:30:04,875
cases, meaning like, oh,
858
00:30:04,875 --> 00:30:06,875
yeah, like, over time and
859
00:30:06,875 --> 00:30:09,041
current in the current generation, it
860
00:30:09,041 --> 00:30:11,125
goes like the PS4 did that
861
00:30:11,125 --> 00:30:13,083
like the base PS4 like that in
862
00:30:13,083 --> 00:30:14,833
price, like after a couple of years
863
00:30:14,833 --> 00:30:19,125
because yes, to them. I think it's a
864
00:30:19,125 --> 00:30:19,916
little preemptive to say
865
00:30:19,916 --> 00:30:22,083
that they're not going to lower prices on
866
00:30:22,083 --> 00:30:22,875
the generation over
867
00:30:22,875 --> 00:30:24,416
time. If their cells slump,
868
00:30:25,125 --> 00:30:27,125
they'll do stuff like when people are
869
00:30:27,125 --> 00:30:28,083
dealing with price issues
870
00:30:28,083 --> 00:30:29,500
like right now in the States,
871
00:30:29,875 --> 00:30:33,041
people are having to deal with high cost
872
00:30:33,041 --> 00:30:34,750
of living period with
873
00:30:34,750 --> 00:30:36,750
everything. They're going to,
874
00:30:36,750 --> 00:30:38,625
you know, they'll be choices made.
875
00:30:38,875 --> 00:30:39,625
They'll probably lower the
876
00:30:39,625 --> 00:30:41,916
prices again. Like I just don't,
877
00:30:41,916 --> 00:30:45,416
I don't see these companies preemptively
878
00:30:45,416 --> 00:30:46,833
say or like, or not
879
00:30:46,833 --> 00:30:48,208
preemptively saying, but just not
880
00:30:48,250 --> 00:30:51,458
lowering prices over time to in order to
881
00:30:51,458 --> 00:30:52,458
sell more consoles
882
00:30:52,458 --> 00:30:53,833
because then they make a lot off
883
00:30:53,833 --> 00:30:56,375
royalties when they do sell a console.
884
00:30:57,333 --> 00:30:59,458
Well, it does make the, it
885
00:30:59,458 --> 00:31:00,791
does make the regular version
886
00:31:00,791 --> 00:31:03,541
with a CD with a disc drive in more
887
00:31:03,541 --> 00:31:05,625
appealing offer by the
888
00:31:05,625 --> 00:31:07,416
other version being a much worse
889
00:31:07,416 --> 00:31:10,500
offer. And also even makes the PS5 Pro
890
00:31:10,500 --> 00:31:12,041
look good offer too in comparison.
891
00:31:12,083 --> 00:31:17,916
I think it's wacky that they are like
892
00:31:17,916 --> 00:31:20,833
that. Both Sony and
893
00:31:20,833 --> 00:31:23,125
Microsoft offer like the lower
894
00:31:23,208 --> 00:31:26,500
and the higher tier, like it splits your
895
00:31:26,500 --> 00:31:27,958
player base. It changes the
896
00:31:27,958 --> 00:31:30,791
specs. Like I, I just don't
897
00:31:30,791 --> 00:31:32,833
understand why they do it that way. Like,
898
00:31:33,875 --> 00:31:35,083
especially when like they
899
00:31:35,083 --> 00:31:36,250
raise the price of the lower tier
900
00:31:36,333 --> 00:31:39,208
one and it makes the higher tier one look
901
00:31:39,208 --> 00:31:42,250
like a better value, but I
902
00:31:42,250 --> 00:31:43,375
don't know. What do we know?
903
00:31:43,375 --> 00:31:46,541
Like, like what the ratio of low to high
904
00:31:46,541 --> 00:31:48,333
tier sales are.
905
00:31:48,875 --> 00:31:51,041
Unfortunately, I don't know where I
906
00:31:51,041 --> 00:31:53,291
could find that information. There's a
907
00:31:53,291 --> 00:31:54,708
lot of it. A lot of it is just like
908
00:31:54,708 --> 00:31:56,125
bundled. It's all PS5
909
00:31:56,125 --> 00:31:58,791
sales, not PS5 digital or PS5 physical
910
00:31:58,791 --> 00:32:02,416
sales. Also worth mentioning is that
911
00:32:02,416 --> 00:32:04,125
prices of PS7 going up,
912
00:32:04,166 --> 00:32:10,208
at least in Canada, $15 for the like the
913
00:32:10,208 --> 00:32:13,125
base version of PSN and then
914
00:32:13,125 --> 00:32:15,500
$35 for the other two tiers.
915
00:32:16,625 --> 00:32:18,750
Wow. That wasn't in the topic, but that
916
00:32:18,750 --> 00:32:20,750
also was just posted yesterday too. So
917
00:32:20,750 --> 00:32:23,458
yeah. So PlayStation
918
00:32:23,583 --> 00:32:26,333
five going up in price, PlayStation
919
00:32:26,333 --> 00:32:27,958
network to play online and
920
00:32:27,958 --> 00:32:30,458
going up in price on and like
921
00:32:31,458 --> 00:32:33,750
console players do get kind of pissed off
922
00:32:33,750 --> 00:32:36,125
when we say just build a PC because like
923
00:32:36,708 --> 00:32:39,000
PCs are expensive upfront and stuff like
924
00:32:39,000 --> 00:32:39,958
that. And yeah, I mean,
925
00:32:39,958 --> 00:32:41,791
yeah, PCs are expensive upfront
926
00:32:41,791 --> 00:32:45,000
because of the fucking Nvidia. Yeah, but
927
00:32:45,000 --> 00:32:47,333
yeah, why don't you build a PC? But at
928
00:32:47,333 --> 00:32:48,208
the same time though,
929
00:32:49,291 --> 00:32:50,666
well, there's, there's cheaper options
930
00:32:50,666 --> 00:32:51,875
coming out more and more. And
931
00:32:51,875 --> 00:32:53,250
thanks to, I think the mobile
932
00:32:53,291 --> 00:32:55,291
play, like a lot of companies going more
933
00:32:55,291 --> 00:32:57,541
into handheld, that is not
934
00:32:57,541 --> 00:32:59,708
phones, but has been helping
935
00:32:59,750 --> 00:33:03,000
with APUs getting stronger. And they're
936
00:33:03,000 --> 00:33:04,375
pretty capable nowadays.
937
00:33:04,375 --> 00:33:05,000
We've talked about this multiple
938
00:33:05,041 --> 00:33:07,958
times. Like you, like this next
939
00:33:07,958 --> 00:33:10,125
generation coming up should be a fairly
940
00:33:10,125 --> 00:33:12,708
close to at least PS4,
941
00:33:13,166 --> 00:33:15,041
but maybe even get encroaching on PS5,
942
00:33:15,041 --> 00:33:16,000
like level performances.
943
00:33:16,000 --> 00:33:17,208
If you tweak things, right.
944
00:33:17,625 --> 00:33:19,500
Now the games are optimized as much for
945
00:33:19,500 --> 00:33:20,500
this. That'd be a nice
946
00:33:20,500 --> 00:33:23,916
feature, but just know that
947
00:33:23,916 --> 00:33:25,875
building a computer nowadays, you can
948
00:33:25,875 --> 00:33:27,541
start with an APU and still
949
00:33:27,541 --> 00:33:28,875
have some, if you get the right
950
00:33:28,875 --> 00:33:31,541
one and not be into the thousands, you
951
00:33:31,541 --> 00:33:32,500
could be under a thousand and
952
00:33:32,500 --> 00:33:33,833
have pretty good performance
953
00:33:33,916 --> 00:33:37,208
with your games. Yeah, absolutely. And
954
00:33:37,208 --> 00:33:38,000
you could get one of
955
00:33:38,000 --> 00:33:40,083
these, I love this mini,
956
00:33:40,791 --> 00:33:44,958
minis forum, AI, whatever it is. How much
957
00:33:44,958 --> 00:33:47,000
is that one? It was like,
958
00:33:47,000 --> 00:33:48,291
it was just under a thousand
959
00:33:48,416 --> 00:33:51,666
for that. But like, I think it was like
960
00:33:51,666 --> 00:33:52,958
eight, eight, 99 or
961
00:33:52,958 --> 00:33:55,916
something. But it has like excellent
962
00:33:56,083 --> 00:33:58,083
performance. It's not upgradable, right?
963
00:33:58,083 --> 00:33:59,750
Like you could build a cheaper PC
964
00:33:59,750 --> 00:34:01,041
yourself. But if you're
965
00:34:01,041 --> 00:34:02,791
a console gamer and you're coming from a
966
00:34:02,791 --> 00:34:04,625
console experience and you
967
00:34:04,625 --> 00:34:06,333
don't have the, you're not
968
00:34:06,333 --> 00:34:08,208
comfortable building a PC, something like
969
00:34:08,208 --> 00:34:10,208
that would be great for
970
00:34:10,208 --> 00:34:12,250
you. Does it support eGPUs?
971
00:34:13,375 --> 00:34:16,333
Yeah, there's a, there's a display link.
972
00:34:17,083 --> 00:34:18,250
That's right. That's
973
00:34:18,250 --> 00:34:19,291
right. So it is like,
974
00:34:20,083 --> 00:34:21,583
technically it is upgradable for probably
975
00:34:21,583 --> 00:34:25,166
a little while. I mean, display link, I
976
00:34:25,166 --> 00:34:25,916
don't have a display
977
00:34:25,958 --> 00:34:29,458
link hub or whatever you call it, but my
978
00:34:29,458 --> 00:34:31,458
understanding is that it display link. I
979
00:34:31,458 --> 00:34:32,166
thought it was Oculink.
980
00:34:33,333 --> 00:34:35,250
That's what it is. Oculink. Yeah.
981
00:34:36,083 --> 00:34:38,541
Oculink. I don't have one of those. So I
982
00:34:38,541 --> 00:34:40,041
haven't tested it, but
983
00:34:40,875 --> 00:34:43,125
my understanding is that it, it, it, it
984
00:34:43,125 --> 00:34:44,291
can become a bottleneck on
985
00:34:44,291 --> 00:34:46,083
high-end GPU's like through.
986
00:34:46,333 --> 00:34:49,041
Yeah. You're so, yeah, I get that. Yeah.
987
00:34:49,041 --> 00:34:49,750
You're definitely going to
988
00:34:49,750 --> 00:34:51,916
hit limits with the like,
989
00:34:52,000 --> 00:34:55,750
let's say 40 or 50, 80 and 90. You're
990
00:34:55,750 --> 00:34:56,541
going to be hitting like
991
00:34:56,541 --> 00:34:58,000
some limits at that point.
992
00:34:58,458 --> 00:34:59,875
You'll still get a little bit, but
993
00:34:59,875 --> 00:35:02,083
there's a bandwidth plus
994
00:35:02,083 --> 00:35:04,500
latency issue going on. It's
995
00:35:05,625 --> 00:35:07,333
definitely upgradable though. Like
996
00:35:07,333 --> 00:35:09,500
anything below that, which I think you're
997
00:35:09,500 --> 00:35:09,958
still going to have a
998
00:35:09,958 --> 00:35:13,375
really good time. I am curious to see
999
00:35:13,375 --> 00:35:14,750
with Thunderbolt and some
1000
00:35:14,750 --> 00:35:16,125
of these other, like we're
1001
00:35:16,166 --> 00:35:17,500
going to talk about a little later, some
1002
00:35:17,500 --> 00:35:20,375
of these other display
1003
00:35:20,375 --> 00:35:23,583
display and also other
1004
00:35:24,333 --> 00:35:27,625
waste connectivity, waste connectivity
1005
00:35:27,625 --> 00:35:31,250
options to increase that
1006
00:35:31,250 --> 00:35:32,333
bandwidth to have better,
1007
00:35:32,625 --> 00:35:34,583
you know, upgradable. I just really like
1008
00:35:34,583 --> 00:35:35,833
eGPs. I'm going off on a
1009
00:35:35,833 --> 00:35:37,500
tangent now because I like the
1010
00:35:37,500 --> 00:35:39,250
idea that I can get a small little device
1011
00:35:39,250 --> 00:35:40,333
and upgrade it over time.
1012
00:35:41,250 --> 00:35:42,000
So hopefully we continue
1013
00:35:42,333 --> 00:35:44,833
down that route. Yeah. You know, the Fox
1014
00:35:44,833 --> 00:35:47,291
doesn't have a gaming
1015
00:35:47,291 --> 00:35:48,583
desktop anymore. He's
1016
00:35:48,583 --> 00:35:51,666
given up that entire setup and tired to
1017
00:35:51,666 --> 00:35:54,875
go full in on Oculink and all that
1018
00:35:54,875 --> 00:35:56,250
modularity. Like he has,
1019
00:35:56,625 --> 00:35:58,875
if I were last time I recall talking to
1020
00:35:58,875 --> 00:36:02,500
him, he had a, he uses a
1021
00:36:02,500 --> 00:36:04,541
GPD Win Mini as like his main
1022
00:36:04,625 --> 00:36:07,000
computer and he plugs it in via Oculink
1023
00:36:07,000 --> 00:36:10,208
to game on the desktop. So
1024
00:36:10,208 --> 00:36:13,500
anyways, back to PC gaming,
1025
00:36:14,166 --> 00:36:16,541
there are two main strengths I consider
1026
00:36:16,541 --> 00:36:17,291
when it comes to PC
1027
00:36:17,291 --> 00:36:18,791
gaming. First and foremost is
1028
00:36:19,291 --> 00:36:22,791
near infinite backwards compatibility. So
1029
00:36:22,791 --> 00:36:24,250
you want to play that
1030
00:36:24,250 --> 00:36:25,791
X-Box 360 game from like
1031
00:36:26,416 --> 00:36:28,333
10 years ago that you loved back in the
1032
00:36:28,333 --> 00:36:29,791
day. You can still do
1033
00:36:29,791 --> 00:36:31,166
it. Most of them still,
1034
00:36:31,208 --> 00:36:33,625
most of the PC games from the 360 era
1035
00:36:33,625 --> 00:36:35,833
still run to this day.
1036
00:36:37,000 --> 00:36:39,125
I'm actually 20 years ago. And there's
1037
00:36:39,125 --> 00:36:42,791
decent 360 emulation now too. Yeah. Yeah.
1038
00:36:44,166 --> 00:36:46,500
Emulation. Oh yeah. Oh, that makes three.
1039
00:36:46,500 --> 00:36:47,291
That means three strong
1040
00:36:47,291 --> 00:36:48,500
points we have. We have near
1041
00:36:48,500 --> 00:36:52,000
backwards compatibility with all like PC
1042
00:36:52,000 --> 00:36:53,833
games. We have emulation,
1043
00:36:53,833 --> 00:36:55,666
which is great for back,
1044
00:36:56,625 --> 00:36:59,500
for game preservation, for like games
1045
00:36:59,500 --> 00:37:00,833
that you basically can't
1046
00:37:00,833 --> 00:37:01,958
find physical copies of anymore
1047
00:37:02,416 --> 00:37:04,541
for the offices you can't find. Yeah. And
1048
00:37:04,541 --> 00:37:07,875
finally, no online fees. Like are you
1049
00:37:07,875 --> 00:37:09,041
already pay your ISP?
1050
00:37:09,458 --> 00:37:11,291
Like I don't know how much you guys pay
1051
00:37:11,291 --> 00:37:12,916
for internet, but I pay like
1052
00:37:12,916 --> 00:37:14,416
$80 a month for my internet.
1053
00:37:16,208 --> 00:37:20,291
And like, I pay like 50. I need to do
1054
00:37:20,291 --> 00:37:22,583
another, um, I need to do
1055
00:37:22,583 --> 00:37:23,875
another video on this where
1056
00:37:24,250 --> 00:37:26,958
the price comparison of what you get with
1057
00:37:26,958 --> 00:37:28,416
a console, as opposed to,
1058
00:37:28,416 --> 00:37:30,250
um, a PC over like a one
1059
00:37:30,250 --> 00:37:31,541
or two year period, you're going to save
1060
00:37:31,541 --> 00:37:32,541
a lot more going with the
1061
00:37:32,541 --> 00:37:35,166
PC. Um, just be if you're
1062
00:37:35,166 --> 00:37:36,541
buying a lot of games, if you're buying
1063
00:37:36,541 --> 00:37:38,791
one game, let's say FIFA or something
1064
00:37:38,791 --> 00:37:39,291
like that, you know,
1065
00:37:39,291 --> 00:37:40,958
like a sports game, you're, cause there's
1066
00:37:40,958 --> 00:37:43,041
a lot of, uh, console players that are
1067
00:37:43,041 --> 00:37:43,916
just like really big
1068
00:37:43,916 --> 00:37:45,833
into like one or two games, then you're
1069
00:37:45,833 --> 00:37:47,208
not going to save much. But
1070
00:37:47,208 --> 00:37:48,500
if you're big into any other
1071
00:37:48,500 --> 00:37:51,166
type of game, the sales, the, um,
1072
00:37:51,500 --> 00:37:52,708
especially if you're online, like the
1073
00:37:52,708 --> 00:37:53,875
online fees, everything,
1074
00:37:53,958 --> 00:37:55,875
you're going to save a lot of money going
1075
00:37:55,875 --> 00:37:58,083
with the PC. Yeah. Yeah.
1076
00:37:58,833 --> 00:38:01,125
But it's years down the line,
1077
00:38:01,125 --> 00:38:02,291
not, you're not going to sit, you know,
1078
00:38:02,416 --> 00:38:03,166
it's, it's kind of like,
1079
00:38:03,333 --> 00:38:04,375
it's kind of going solar.
1080
00:38:04,625 --> 00:38:05,875
Like it's going to cost a lot going,
1081
00:38:06,083 --> 00:38:07,750
going up front, but like
1082
00:38:07,750 --> 00:38:09,291
down the line, your investment's
1083
00:38:09,291 --> 00:38:11,958
going to pay off. It, no, it can be a
1084
00:38:11,958 --> 00:38:15,000
year. You'd be shocked at how much you
1085
00:38:15,000 --> 00:38:16,458
can save by going with
1086
00:38:16,458 --> 00:38:18,166
sale, like steam cells and some other
1087
00:38:18,166 --> 00:38:21,208
cells. Um, if you're not buying like the
1088
00:38:21,208 --> 00:38:22,208
brand new game right
1089
00:38:22,250 --> 00:38:24,666
off the bat. And even if you are places
1090
00:38:24,666 --> 00:38:26,375
online will sell up for about
1091
00:38:26,375 --> 00:38:28,125
10 to $20 cheaper, partially
1092
00:38:28,166 --> 00:38:29,875
because they don't have to eat that
1093
00:38:29,875 --> 00:38:31,250
royalty fee that PlayStation
1094
00:38:31,250 --> 00:38:33,375
has or Xbox, because they have
1095
00:38:34,041 --> 00:38:37,958
what is like 10, $20, uh, fee to sell
1096
00:38:37,958 --> 00:38:40,416
games on their devices. So I
1097
00:38:40,416 --> 00:38:41,666
think people would be shocked
1098
00:38:41,666 --> 00:38:43,416
at how much they save just going to PC.
1099
00:38:43,666 --> 00:38:44,916
Yeah. And if you're coming
1100
00:38:44,916 --> 00:38:46,625
from like the Nintendo space,
1101
00:38:47,000 --> 00:38:49,875
like Nintendo always keeps their, their
1102
00:38:49,875 --> 00:38:51,208
first party titles at the
1103
00:38:51,208 --> 00:38:52,791
maximum, like their high,
1104
00:38:52,791 --> 00:38:54,833
like, like their brand new, even, even
1105
00:38:54,833 --> 00:38:56,708
though they've been out for fucking 10,
1106
00:38:56,708 --> 00:38:57,625
13 years or whatever.
1107
00:38:58,500 --> 00:39:01,625
And speaking of Nintendo, uh, the switch
1108
00:39:01,625 --> 00:39:05,708
to pricing has updated. And, uh, this is,
1109
00:39:05,708 --> 00:39:07,791
this is interesting. If we, if we go to
1110
00:39:07,791 --> 00:39:10,583
their blog post, it says, Nintendo
1111
00:39:10,583 --> 00:39:12,333
maintains Nintendo switch
1112
00:39:12,416 --> 00:39:14,958
to pricing retail pre-orders begin April
1113
00:39:14,958 --> 00:39:17,125
24th for the U S but that
1114
00:39:17,125 --> 00:39:19,083
is like the most disingenuous
1115
00:39:19,291 --> 00:39:22,708
title that because while the switch to
1116
00:39:22,708 --> 00:39:24,041
itself, the console is
1117
00:39:24,041 --> 00:39:25,583
staying the same and the game prices
1118
00:39:25,583 --> 00:39:29,333
are staying the same. Uh, they they've
1119
00:39:29,333 --> 00:39:31,250
like, they're increasing the prices for
1120
00:39:31,250 --> 00:39:32,125
all the accessories.
1121
00:39:32,708 --> 00:39:35,458
Uh, high tech will give us the details on
1122
00:39:35,458 --> 00:39:38,375
this. So Nintendo doesn't
1123
00:39:38,375 --> 00:39:39,500
tell you what the old prices
1124
00:39:39,708 --> 00:39:41,791
are, but some Redditor compiled some
1125
00:39:41,791 --> 00:39:44,583
prices and I, I've put the, uh, I put a
1126
00:39:44,583 --> 00:39:45,333
chart, I put a little
1127
00:39:45,333 --> 00:39:48,708
Excel chart in our, uh, document here and
1128
00:39:48,708 --> 00:39:50,333
you can see most of these
1129
00:39:50,333 --> 00:39:52,875
went up by like $5, but some
1130
00:39:53,375 --> 00:39:57,750
went up like $10 in the joy con to strap
1131
00:39:57,750 --> 00:40:00,833
one up $1. Is this what
1132
00:40:00,833 --> 00:40:01,750
you're talking about? Yeah.
1133
00:40:01,750 --> 00:40:02,708
That's the one I was talking about. Yes.
1134
00:40:03,333 --> 00:40:04,791
Yeah. So yeah, the switch,
1135
00:40:05,041 --> 00:40:06,083
the switch to pro controller
1136
00:40:06,166 --> 00:40:08,958
has gone up $5 that joy con to
1137
00:40:08,958 --> 00:40:10,833
controllers have gone up $5.
1138
00:40:10,833 --> 00:40:13,000
Uh, so has the charging grip.
1139
00:40:13,375 --> 00:40:15,625
The strap has gone up $1. The wheel has
1140
00:40:15,625 --> 00:40:21,750
gone up $5. Yes. And man, that's just
1141
00:40:21,750 --> 00:40:23,500
crazy. But the wheel,
1142
00:40:23,750 --> 00:40:25,916
the joy con to wheel is that literally
1143
00:40:25,916 --> 00:40:28,791
like the we like we wheel. Is it just
1144
00:40:29,458 --> 00:40:32,208
a piece of plastic? Oh, yeah.
1145
00:40:32,500 --> 00:40:35,875
God, you should do, you
1146
00:40:35,875 --> 00:40:36,958
should three print one of those.
1147
00:40:38,000 --> 00:40:41,375
Oh my God. And charge myself $5 for it.
1148
00:40:41,791 --> 00:40:44,625
Um, yeah, these prices don't
1149
00:40:44,625 --> 00:40:45,958
even reflect how much tariffs
1150
00:40:45,958 --> 00:40:47,416
have gone up. These are like, this is
1151
00:40:47,416 --> 00:40:48,500
preemptive stuff. I don't
1152
00:40:48,500 --> 00:40:51,125
think they're being charged yet.
1153
00:40:51,125 --> 00:40:52,708
Cause I think they're like what we're
1154
00:40:52,708 --> 00:40:54,000
being told and what's
1155
00:40:54,000 --> 00:40:54,875
actually happening with the
1156
00:40:54,875 --> 00:40:56,250
administration. I think are two different
1157
00:40:56,250 --> 00:40:57,875
things. I don't think
1158
00:40:57,875 --> 00:40:59,208
bravado kind of going on right now,
1159
00:40:59,208 --> 00:41:01,000
but if they actually go fully into
1160
00:41:01,000 --> 00:41:04,125
effect, this would be, this
1161
00:41:04,125 --> 00:41:05,500
is child's play increases.
1162
00:41:05,916 --> 00:41:08,125
They're going to be double this if the
1163
00:41:08,125 --> 00:41:09,875
tariffs actually go through
1164
00:41:09,875 --> 00:41:13,333
and not like double the increase, right?
1165
00:41:13,541 --> 00:41:14,958
Like this, this would be double the
1166
00:41:14,958 --> 00:41:16,166
actual price that you're
1167
00:41:16,166 --> 00:41:17,666
seeing on your screen. I don't want to
1168
00:41:17,666 --> 00:41:19,458
pay 240 for a fucking
1169
00:41:19,458 --> 00:41:21,000
Nintendo switch to doc.
1170
00:41:21,041 --> 00:41:26,333
Yeah. The doc said is the doc said is
1171
00:41:26,333 --> 00:41:28,500
$110 was already $110.
1172
00:41:28,875 --> 00:41:29,875
How much was the, uh,
1173
00:41:30,083 --> 00:41:31,500
I don't remember the switch one doc being
1174
00:41:31,500 --> 00:41:32,875
that much. Let me see.
1175
00:41:36,083 --> 00:41:39,166
The doc, the first doc was like
1176
00:41:41,791 --> 00:41:44,000
$60 MSRP. Actually, that's a lot more
1177
00:41:44,000 --> 00:41:44,875
expensive than I thought it was.
1178
00:41:45,125 --> 00:41:46,583
Wait. So what's our double the price? So
1179
00:41:46,583 --> 00:41:47,333
the doc is double the
1180
00:41:47,333 --> 00:41:49,333
price of the original one.
1181
00:41:50,000 --> 00:41:52,000
Well, this new doc comes with a fan.
1182
00:41:52,625 --> 00:41:54,250
Okay. Okay. It comes with a fan.
1183
00:41:55,041 --> 00:41:56,291
Okay. They must've put like a knock to a
1184
00:41:56,291 --> 00:41:58,708
fan in there for it to cost that much.
1185
00:41:58,708 --> 00:42:08,375
This is just despicable. So are you ready
1186
00:42:08,375 --> 00:42:10,583
to buy, are you ready to
1187
00:42:10,583 --> 00:42:11,750
spend almost a hundred dollars
1188
00:42:11,750 --> 00:42:14,583
on joy cons when you're inevitably stick
1189
00:42:14,583 --> 00:42:17,125
drifts? I'm not buying a
1190
00:42:17,125 --> 00:42:18,875
switch to. Oh, this is for the
1191
00:42:18,916 --> 00:42:20,875
audience. But I know you're not buying a
1192
00:42:20,875 --> 00:42:23,500
switch too, but I know
1193
00:42:23,500 --> 00:42:27,458
that. Well, I don't think it's,
1194
00:42:28,208 --> 00:42:29,166
I don't think it's fair to say that
1195
00:42:29,166 --> 00:42:30,000
there's going to be stick
1196
00:42:30,000 --> 00:42:31,708
drift. I would hope because they,
1197
00:42:31,708 --> 00:42:34,166
they had to eat so much shit with the
1198
00:42:34,166 --> 00:42:36,583
original and having, I think they had
1199
00:42:36,583 --> 00:42:37,458
class action lawsuit
1200
00:42:37,500 --> 00:42:39,500
that made it this. So they had to do
1201
00:42:39,500 --> 00:42:40,833
repairs. I don't think
1202
00:42:40,833 --> 00:42:41,833
they're going to make that same
1203
00:42:41,833 --> 00:42:45,708
mistake. Um, but we'll see. Like I don't
1204
00:42:45,708 --> 00:42:46,625
think it will. I think
1205
00:42:46,625 --> 00:42:47,750
they're going to test the durability
1206
00:42:48,166 --> 00:42:52,083
and I think they'll last a lot longer. If
1207
00:42:52,083 --> 00:42:52,750
that doesn't mean that
1208
00:42:52,750 --> 00:42:53,625
they're not going to have stick
1209
00:42:53,625 --> 00:42:55,333
drift in like three years, but two years,
1210
00:42:55,791 --> 00:42:56,333
but I think they're going
1211
00:42:56,333 --> 00:42:57,666
to be passed a warranty and
1212
00:42:57,666 --> 00:43:01,833
pass some other, um, uh, class action
1213
00:43:01,833 --> 00:43:08,500
lawsuit, uh, danger zone there. So, um,
1214
00:43:09,208 --> 00:43:11,125
you know, I did a little
1215
00:43:11,125 --> 00:43:13,666
bit of, um, a little bit of math, cause I
1216
00:43:13,666 --> 00:43:14,625
don't know exactly how
1217
00:43:14,625 --> 00:43:16,208
long I've played on my switch,
1218
00:43:16,791 --> 00:43:21,750
um, with the joy cons, but I've only
1219
00:43:21,750 --> 00:43:23,750
played, uh, Mario
1220
00:43:23,750 --> 00:43:25,958
Odyssey and I've only played
1221
00:43:26,166 --> 00:43:29,708
Metroid dread on, on the switch in joy
1222
00:43:29,708 --> 00:43:31,416
con in handheld mode, right?
1223
00:43:31,916 --> 00:43:32,916
Every other game I've played
1224
00:43:32,916 --> 00:43:35,916
on my switch, I've played with, uh, a pro
1225
00:43:35,916 --> 00:43:37,666
controller on a TV, right?
1226
00:43:38,500 --> 00:43:40,208
And so, and if you look at like
1227
00:43:40,208 --> 00:43:41,541
how long to be, um, this is something
1228
00:43:41,541 --> 00:43:42,583
that's coming up in my next
1229
00:43:42,583 --> 00:43:43,833
video. If you look at how long to
1230
00:43:43,833 --> 00:43:46,875
beat for those two games, it's like, you
1231
00:43:46,875 --> 00:43:48,250
know, 18 hours or something
1232
00:43:48,250 --> 00:43:50,208
like that. And then you add on
1233
00:43:50,208 --> 00:43:51,958
at least 10 hours because I'm, I'm like
1234
00:43:51,958 --> 00:43:54,666
really bad at video games. And, and I
1235
00:43:54,666 --> 00:43:56,250
have stick drift on my
1236
00:43:56,250 --> 00:44:01,291
sticks, right? Like, so it like 32 hours,
1237
00:44:01,291 --> 00:44:03,916
maybe total of, of, you
1238
00:44:03,916 --> 00:44:06,125
know, 38 hours, maybe total of
1239
00:44:06,250 --> 00:44:08,750
gameplay on my switch, um, on my joy cons
1240
00:44:08,750 --> 00:44:11,375
and, uh, like they're bad
1241
00:44:11,375 --> 00:44:13,791
and Emily has done way more
1242
00:44:13,791 --> 00:44:15,541
gaming and her drift is way worse than
1243
00:44:15,541 --> 00:44:18,166
mine. So it's like, I don't
1244
00:44:18,166 --> 00:44:19,750
know. It's a thing that affects
1245
00:44:19,750 --> 00:44:21,666
pretty much everybody. Even if you don't
1246
00:44:21,666 --> 00:44:23,000
really use the joy cons that
1247
00:44:23,000 --> 00:44:25,166
much, it's, it's crazy to me.
1248
00:44:25,333 --> 00:44:27,333
How old are the joy cons? Oh, they're
1249
00:44:27,333 --> 00:44:28,291
launched day. I mean, I,
1250
00:44:28,291 --> 00:44:30,458
okay. Yeah. I bought them. Uh,
1251
00:44:30,500 --> 00:44:32,375
I bought this, well, I guess they're not
1252
00:44:32,375 --> 00:44:33,750
launched day because I bought it like
1253
00:44:33,750 --> 00:44:37,000
right after the, um,
1254
00:44:37,458 --> 00:44:40,625
like the, the, the hack, the hardware
1255
00:44:40,625 --> 00:44:43,500
hack came out. Okay. So
1256
00:44:43,500 --> 00:44:44,666
it was like eight months.
1257
00:44:45,708 --> 00:44:47,416
Yeah. Any period within like a year of
1258
00:44:47,416 --> 00:44:48,666
those controllers coming
1259
00:44:48,666 --> 00:44:49,750
out, they could be longer.
1260
00:44:49,750 --> 00:44:51,041
I'm just giving you like an arbitrary
1261
00:44:51,041 --> 00:44:52,541
date to just make it easier.
1262
00:44:52,875 --> 00:44:55,000
You're going to end up with
1263
00:44:55,000 --> 00:44:57,250
that strict stick drift on most of
1264
00:44:57,250 --> 00:44:58,500
controllers event. Like that's, that's
1265
00:44:58,500 --> 00:44:59,333
why there was such an
1266
00:44:59,375 --> 00:45:01,583
easy, that's why they had to handle it.
1267
00:45:01,583 --> 00:45:02,666
They had to handle all the
1268
00:45:02,666 --> 00:45:04,166
stick drift and have a whole
1269
00:45:04,166 --> 00:45:06,625
system to replace controllers because it
1270
00:45:06,625 --> 00:45:08,250
was such a bad problem.
1271
00:45:09,333 --> 00:45:11,291
Um, I can definitely say that
1272
00:45:12,250 --> 00:45:14,416
I I've had multiple controllers,
1273
00:45:14,416 --> 00:45:15,416
partially because my kids
1274
00:45:15,416 --> 00:45:16,500
are hard on their controllers
1275
00:45:16,875 --> 00:45:20,791
since day one to over the past few years.
1276
00:45:21,000 --> 00:45:22,416
And the newer ones do the
1277
00:45:22,416 --> 00:45:23,583
last law law. I have not had any
1278
00:45:23,583 --> 00:45:28,541
stick drift on the newer ones, but that's
1279
00:45:28,541 --> 00:45:31,958
saying I, I'm not gonna, we
1280
00:45:31,958 --> 00:45:33,375
don't play it as much now,
1281
00:45:33,583 --> 00:45:35,416
but it definitely has more hours than the
1282
00:45:35,416 --> 00:45:38,166
older ones. But I not
1283
00:45:38,166 --> 00:45:39,000
saying that there's not going to
1284
00:45:39,000 --> 00:45:41,708
be a stick drift issue. I just, I, I
1285
00:45:41,708 --> 00:45:43,541
would not see it happening within the
1286
00:45:43,541 --> 00:45:44,666
first years. I think
1287
00:45:44,916 --> 00:45:46,458
Nintendo at the very least learned their
1288
00:45:46,458 --> 00:45:48,666
lesson from that. I would hope so too.
1289
00:45:49,083 --> 00:45:50,916
I would hope so too. We'll see. Cause
1290
00:45:50,916 --> 00:45:51,458
they're going to lose a
1291
00:45:51,458 --> 00:45:52,708
lot of money. Like why, why,
1292
00:45:52,750 --> 00:45:56,166
why lose the money? Fix it in the R and D
1293
00:45:56,166 --> 00:45:57,875
and on that level, that
1294
00:45:57,875 --> 00:45:59,166
side, or else you're just
1295
00:45:59,166 --> 00:46:00,458
going to be paying a less shitload more
1296
00:46:00,458 --> 00:46:02,833
money. Maybe that's why
1297
00:46:02,833 --> 00:46:04,000
the switch too. So expensive
1298
00:46:04,000 --> 00:46:06,291
because I lost a shitload of money from
1299
00:46:06,291 --> 00:46:08,333
joy. They're bitter.
1300
00:46:08,541 --> 00:46:10,041
They're like, you sued us. We're
1301
00:46:10,041 --> 00:46:11,500
going to, we're going to get it back.
1302
00:46:13,583 --> 00:46:16,583
Yeah. That'd be hilarious.
1303
00:46:18,083 --> 00:46:21,166
Um, yeah, the price increases is
1304
00:46:21,208 --> 00:46:23,750
great. Like I, I shocked that they were
1305
00:46:23,750 --> 00:46:25,541
actually smaller. Like that's why I'm
1306
00:46:25,541 --> 00:46:26,041
saying like, I think
1307
00:46:26,041 --> 00:46:28,208
these are preemptive, but they're smaller
1308
00:46:28,208 --> 00:46:29,583
than they technically
1309
00:46:29,583 --> 00:46:31,708
should be to match in, uh, what,
1310
00:46:31,833 --> 00:46:36,250
uh, tariffs are, but still crazy to see a
1311
00:46:36,250 --> 00:46:37,083
price increase right
1312
00:46:37,083 --> 00:46:39,041
before launch like this. And I
1313
00:46:39,041 --> 00:46:40,000
don't think they want to, I think they're
1314
00:46:40,000 --> 00:46:41,375
doing it here and not
1315
00:46:41,375 --> 00:46:42,375
touching the console itself.
1316
00:46:42,375 --> 00:46:44,083
Cause they know if they touch the console
1317
00:46:44,083 --> 00:46:45,833
too much, it's going to
1318
00:46:45,833 --> 00:46:46,750
hurt their cells a lot.
1319
00:46:47,208 --> 00:46:49,958
Oh yeah. Oh yeah. For sure. I mean, uh,
1320
00:46:49,958 --> 00:46:51,375
what, what's like the average
1321
00:46:51,750 --> 00:46:55,000
increase like percentage here? Um, is it
1322
00:46:55,000 --> 00:47:00,125
like around five or 10% maybe? Um, um,
1323
00:47:01,708 --> 00:47:04,375
Oh, yeah. That's for most of these. Yeah.
1324
00:47:05,125 --> 00:47:07,125
It varies. It's not, it's not one set
1325
00:47:07,291 --> 00:47:09,708
percentage increase. Yeah. It's really
1326
00:47:09,708 --> 00:47:10,916
hard. They're just like,
1327
00:47:10,916 --> 00:47:11,916
Hey, let's slap this up.
1328
00:47:12,250 --> 00:47:16,208
Uh, you know, five, $10. Yeah.
1329
00:47:17,500 --> 00:47:21,500
Yeah. They, I think they, they ran the
1330
00:47:21,500 --> 00:47:22,375
numbers and they were
1331
00:47:22,375 --> 00:47:24,666
like, if we increase the prices
1332
00:47:25,041 --> 00:47:27,166
on all the other things, we'll make up
1333
00:47:27,166 --> 00:47:29,625
whatever we might lose, uh,
1334
00:47:29,875 --> 00:47:32,375
from the bad press of, you know,
1335
00:47:32,916 --> 00:47:35,750
yeah. Yeah. So also one more thing too,
1336
00:47:35,750 --> 00:47:36,958
the joy con to charging
1337
00:47:36,958 --> 00:47:39,916
grip is $40. I saw a Twitter
1338
00:47:40,000 --> 00:47:44,291
post from J socks. If J if you guys
1339
00:47:44,291 --> 00:47:45,541
remember J socks, their,
1340
00:47:45,541 --> 00:47:48,833
uh, premier steam deck, uh,
1341
00:47:48,833 --> 00:47:52,000
accessory manufacturer, J socks is making
1342
00:47:52,000 --> 00:47:53,791
a charging doc of their
1343
00:47:53,791 --> 00:47:54,791
own, like not charging
1344
00:47:54,791 --> 00:47:57,166
that sorry. The, uh, controller grip
1345
00:47:57,166 --> 00:47:58,500
grip. Yeah. Charging grip of
1346
00:47:58,500 --> 00:48:01,333
their own. It's like 20. Yeah.
1347
00:48:02,000 --> 00:48:05,333
And also it doesn't look half bad. Is the
1348
00:48:05,333 --> 00:48:07,500
charging grip like the joy con, uh,
1349
00:48:08,166 --> 00:48:11,666
grip thing. Um, so like it's not so
1350
00:48:11,666 --> 00:48:13,625
controller rather. Yeah. So
1351
00:48:13,625 --> 00:48:15,125
rather than being like a big
1352
00:48:15,125 --> 00:48:17,333
square, like the Nintendo one is instead,
1353
00:48:17,333 --> 00:48:19,375
it's like split and
1354
00:48:19,375 --> 00:48:20,500
angled out a little more,
1355
00:48:21,000 --> 00:48:22,458
but look at that. It's called the joy
1356
00:48:22,458 --> 00:48:24,083
verse, uh, series dual
1357
00:48:26,083 --> 00:48:27,500
by J socks. It actually
1358
00:48:27,500 --> 00:48:28,208
doesn't look half bad.
1359
00:48:28,250 --> 00:48:34,916
Oh yeah. Okay. Yeah. So yeah. So the,
1360
00:48:34,916 --> 00:48:36,458
like the switch ones was
1361
00:48:36,458 --> 00:48:38,166
also kind of like a big square.
1362
00:48:39,041 --> 00:48:42,291
Yeah. Huh. That doesn't look super
1363
00:48:42,291 --> 00:48:44,125
comfortable. Look at
1364
00:48:44,125 --> 00:48:46,083
the J socks one. Yeah.
1365
00:48:47,583 --> 00:48:48,666
Yeah. I've never been a big
1366
00:48:48,666 --> 00:48:50,416
fan of this, even though it is
1367
00:48:51,666 --> 00:48:52,875
nice sometimes to be able
1368
00:48:52,875 --> 00:48:53,750
to combine them. It's just,
1369
00:48:54,166 --> 00:48:58,083
yeah. Yeah. I mean, to be honest, what I
1370
00:48:58,083 --> 00:48:59,083
really don't like is the
1371
00:48:59,083 --> 00:49:00,833
fact that the deep, I don't
1372
00:49:00,833 --> 00:49:02,208
like the deep pad. I understand what
1373
00:49:02,208 --> 00:49:05,166
Nintendo did here, but I don't like when
1374
00:49:05,166 --> 00:49:06,208
deep pads are separate
1375
00:49:06,333 --> 00:49:09,666
buttons. It just doesn't feel right. It's
1376
00:49:09,666 --> 00:49:10,791
not right. Yeah. I don't
1377
00:49:10,791 --> 00:49:11,375
even know if you can call
1378
00:49:11,375 --> 00:49:13,541
that deep pad. It's not the pad. It's
1379
00:49:13,541 --> 00:49:16,000
what they call a deep pad
1380
00:49:16,000 --> 00:49:17,541
because as arrow keys, I know,
1381
00:49:18,000 --> 00:49:20,208
I know it's just directional button,
1382
00:49:20,416 --> 00:49:21,083
directional buttons.
1383
00:49:22,166 --> 00:49:23,791
Is this what you're talking about right
1384
00:49:23,791 --> 00:49:25,250
here? Sure. Yeah. That
1385
00:49:25,250 --> 00:49:26,000
that's what I'm talking about.
1386
00:49:26,000 --> 00:49:29,250
I mean, that looks more comfortable. It
1387
00:49:29,250 --> 00:49:31,250
definitely looks more comfortable. Yeah.
1388
00:49:33,083 --> 00:49:35,125
It also charges. You can also charge your
1389
00:49:35,125 --> 00:49:36,333
controllers using that too.
1390
00:49:37,833 --> 00:49:41,000
Interesting. So I haven't noticed on the
1391
00:49:41,000 --> 00:49:43,416
joy cons, like, uh, how
1392
00:49:43,416 --> 00:49:45,208
they're actually like getting power
1393
00:49:45,375 --> 00:49:48,958
from the, is it like a, there's a
1394
00:49:48,958 --> 00:49:51,500
charging kind of thing or what? No,
1395
00:49:51,500 --> 00:49:52,916
there's, there are pogo pins
1396
00:49:53,375 --> 00:49:57,125
in the controller. Yeah. It's like, it's
1397
00:49:57,125 --> 00:49:58,833
like that. You can't see
1398
00:49:58,833 --> 00:50:00,166
them in these photos, but
1399
00:50:00,166 --> 00:50:01,833
there are some pictures of the joy cons
1400
00:50:01,833 --> 00:50:02,666
where you can see like
1401
00:50:02,666 --> 00:50:04,791
the pogo pins and the, uh,
1402
00:50:05,083 --> 00:50:07,416
actual switch unit itself, the switch to
1403
00:50:07,416 --> 00:50:10,333
unit $20 to like, yeah, I'd much rather
1404
00:50:10,333 --> 00:50:11,000
go with this option.
1405
00:50:11,916 --> 00:50:13,750
Yeah. Yeah. And I'm sure there are plenty
1406
00:50:13,750 --> 00:50:15,375
of other accessories too,
1407
00:50:15,375 --> 00:50:16,666
that are a lot cheaper too.
1408
00:50:17,875 --> 00:50:19,583
Like a, uh, a dock that's probably a lot
1409
00:50:19,583 --> 00:50:20,916
cheaper and it has a
1410
00:50:20,916 --> 00:50:22,583
fan. And let's just say,
1411
00:50:23,583 --> 00:50:27,250
whoa. I just like tried to go to like,
1412
00:50:27,500 --> 00:50:29,333
uh, to the joy con
1413
00:50:29,333 --> 00:50:31,375
listing, the joy con to listing on
1414
00:50:31,500 --> 00:50:32,916
Nintendo's website and it's not
1415
00:50:32,916 --> 00:50:36,666
available. Oh, that's weird. I, I just
1416
00:50:36,666 --> 00:50:38,458
click their link on the
1417
00:50:38,541 --> 00:50:45,083
duck that go here. Weird. Anyway. Yeah. I
1418
00:50:45,083 --> 00:50:48,166
mean, this is, it's very strange. Uh,
1419
00:50:48,833 --> 00:50:51,166
this behavior is, is it's just clearly
1420
00:50:51,166 --> 00:50:53,458
anti customer and I don't like it at all.
1421
00:50:53,791 --> 00:50:55,166
I agree. Um, wait, how
1422
00:50:55,166 --> 00:50:56,375
much is the racing wheel?
1423
00:50:58,750 --> 00:51:01,125
The racing wheel. Um, according to this,
1424
00:51:01,125 --> 00:51:04,958
the racing wheel is a 25 bucks now. Oh,
1425
00:51:04,958 --> 00:51:07,250
oh, the JSX one's more expensive.
1426
00:51:07,458 --> 00:51:09,958
Nevermind. Don't get the
1427
00:51:09,958 --> 00:51:11,375
JSX version of that accessory.
1428
00:51:11,666 --> 00:51:13,041
If you're going to get a racing wheel,
1429
00:51:13,333 --> 00:51:15,500
dude, just 3d print one. It's just
1430
00:51:15,500 --> 00:51:16,666
plastic. I'm imagining.
1431
00:51:17,000 --> 00:51:18,416
Is it better though? And that's my thing
1432
00:51:18,416 --> 00:51:19,250
at the end of the day,
1433
00:51:19,250 --> 00:51:20,375
which one looks more comfortable
1434
00:51:20,375 --> 00:51:24,208
or better. And that's, uh, I don't even
1435
00:51:24,208 --> 00:51:25,250
know what the actual one
1436
00:51:25,250 --> 00:51:26,208
looks like to be honest.
1437
00:51:27,833 --> 00:51:29,416
So this looks like your standard, like a
1438
00:51:29,416 --> 00:51:31,250
steering wheel for a car. The JSX one
1439
00:51:31,250 --> 00:51:32,041
kind of looks like a
1440
00:51:32,166 --> 00:51:35,291
steering wheel for like a Ferrari. Where
1441
00:51:35,291 --> 00:51:38,875
it's like, what's the point of this? Um,
1442
00:51:39,375 --> 00:51:42,125
like my kids would like it. Like, it's
1443
00:51:42,125 --> 00:51:46,250
interesting. Like, I like the, this, the
1444
00:51:46,250 --> 00:51:46,916
wheel because they're
1445
00:51:46,916 --> 00:51:51,500
just kind of fun. Um, but yeah, I mean,
1446
00:51:51,500 --> 00:51:52,583
it did. It's the one thing
1447
00:51:52,583 --> 00:51:53,875
I'm seeing it doing is it's
1448
00:51:53,875 --> 00:51:56,375
adding buttons. Like it's adding like
1449
00:51:56,375 --> 00:51:57,708
levers that will like shorter
1450
00:51:57,708 --> 00:51:59,958
buttons. Yeah. Yeah. I mean,
1451
00:52:00,166 --> 00:52:03,625
which that can be useful, but, uh, to be
1452
00:52:03,625 --> 00:52:04,750
fair, that looks actually
1453
00:52:04,750 --> 00:52:06,416
much more useful and much
1454
00:52:06,416 --> 00:52:09,250
better than the original. It does. I will
1455
00:52:09,250 --> 00:52:11,250
admit in the past ones, much better.
1456
00:52:12,000 --> 00:52:14,375
Yeah. So look at the
1457
00:52:14,375 --> 00:52:18,041
JSX one though. There's a whole, they
1458
00:52:18,041 --> 00:52:18,791
have a whole section of
1459
00:52:18,791 --> 00:52:19,666
switch to accessories. We can
1460
00:52:19,708 --> 00:52:21,291
actually look at all of the wall, the
1461
00:52:21,291 --> 00:52:24,291
ones they have. All right.
1462
00:52:25,250 --> 00:52:30,958
Um, yeah. All right. Let's
1463
00:52:32,416 --> 00:52:34,000
we're not sponsored by JSX by the way. I
1464
00:52:34,000 --> 00:52:35,125
should probably mention that we're not.
1465
00:52:36,083 --> 00:52:38,458
I have, I do want to disclose I've had a
1466
00:52:38,458 --> 00:52:39,791
relationship with them
1467
00:52:39,791 --> 00:52:40,750
in the past, but I don't
1468
00:52:40,750 --> 00:52:42,791
anymore. This right here. Yeah. I've,
1469
00:52:42,791 --> 00:52:43,666
I've had some stuff from
1470
00:52:43,666 --> 00:52:47,583
them too. Yeah. Um, yeah. So,
1471
00:52:47,750 --> 00:52:49,916
okay. That one looks more like a $27.
1472
00:52:50,333 --> 00:52:52,125
That just looks like a grip. I mean,
1473
00:52:52,416 --> 00:52:56,333
it's not really a wheel. Well, yeah. It's
1474
00:52:56,333 --> 00:52:57,041
like one of those, it's like
1475
00:52:57,041 --> 00:52:58,458
one of those Ferrari racing,
1476
00:52:58,458 --> 00:53:02,208
like Ferrari, uh, steering. Yes. Yep. I
1477
00:53:02,208 --> 00:53:03,166
can see that. Okay. It's a
1478
00:53:03,166 --> 00:53:04,125
two pack though. At least it
1479
00:53:04,125 --> 00:53:06,500
comes with two. Oh yeah. Wait, does the
1480
00:53:06,500 --> 00:53:07,208
switch one not come with
1481
00:53:07,208 --> 00:53:09,916
two? They both come with two.
1482
00:53:10,125 --> 00:53:11,708
I'm just saying at least it comes with
1483
00:53:11,708 --> 00:53:14,666
two. I do like them.
1484
00:53:14,666 --> 00:53:15,333
Yeah. I did a little better.
1485
00:53:15,750 --> 00:53:18,333
I think I'd rather go with the switch
1486
00:53:18,333 --> 00:53:20,166
one. The Nintendo version.
1487
00:53:20,875 --> 00:53:22,000
I mean, yeah, it's cheaper.
1488
00:53:23,000 --> 00:53:24,666
For partially just cause I think my, what
1489
00:53:24,666 --> 00:53:26,500
I'd be getting it for my kids to be fair.
1490
00:53:26,875 --> 00:53:28,333
And I'm just going to have fun every once
1491
00:53:28,333 --> 00:53:29,333
in a while with it. If
1492
00:53:29,333 --> 00:53:30,625
I seriously getting this
1493
00:53:30,625 --> 00:53:32,041
for racing, then I'd get this one
1494
00:53:32,041 --> 00:53:36,333
probably cause it just, yeah. Yeah. Yeah.
1495
00:53:37,458 --> 00:53:39,750
Hmm. I mean, Hey, I like that charging
1496
00:53:39,750 --> 00:53:42,916
station. That's the RG. Oh,
1497
00:53:42,916 --> 00:53:43,583
that does look pretty sick.
1498
00:53:44,416 --> 00:53:45,833
Well, this one in the numbers while you
1499
00:53:45,833 --> 00:53:47,666
have to, you can see
1500
00:53:47,666 --> 00:53:49,000
the portable gardener.
1501
00:53:50,375 --> 00:53:51,958
Yeah. Right there. The what? The, like
1502
00:53:51,958 --> 00:53:53,000
pins in the center of
1503
00:53:53,000 --> 00:53:54,375
like the slot. Oh yeah.
1504
00:53:54,375 --> 00:53:58,083
In the center. Yeah. Oh, I like that. All
1505
00:53:58,083 --> 00:54:00,541
right. That was like, uh,
1506
00:54:01,041 --> 00:54:03,375
are those pogo pins or are they, um,
1507
00:54:03,833 --> 00:54:04,958
something else? I think that's the
1508
00:54:04,958 --> 00:54:06,291
insert. I think that's,
1509
00:54:06,291 --> 00:54:09,875
uh, that's the, um, that goes into the
1510
00:54:09,875 --> 00:54:10,583
controller. I'm not
1511
00:54:10,583 --> 00:54:13,208
entirely sure what it is for sure.
1512
00:54:14,375 --> 00:54:18,416
Okay. Oh, Hey, neat. The battle armor
1513
00:54:18,416 --> 00:54:19,708
protective case for switched to that
1514
00:54:19,708 --> 00:54:20,291
actually doesn't look
1515
00:54:20,291 --> 00:54:21,500
too, I don't like the way it looks
1516
00:54:21,500 --> 00:54:22,500
necessarily, but it looks
1517
00:54:22,500 --> 00:54:23,250
like it'd be comfortable.
1518
00:54:24,041 --> 00:54:25,291
It kind of looks at the mod case that
1519
00:54:25,291 --> 00:54:26,750
they have for those. Yeah.
1520
00:54:28,000 --> 00:54:29,250
And I've never been a big fan
1521
00:54:29,250 --> 00:54:31,500
of the way they designed it, but dude, is
1522
00:54:31,500 --> 00:54:33,958
that AI generated Pokemon?
1523
00:54:37,916 --> 00:54:41,541
Lossed incoming. Oh yeah.
1524
00:54:41,541 --> 00:54:43,208
Dude, legally distinct Pokemon.
1525
00:54:44,166 --> 00:54:46,958
Yeah. As long as you put that in the AI
1526
00:54:46,958 --> 00:54:48,125
prompt that generated it,
1527
00:54:48,125 --> 00:54:49,666
it's fine. It's fine. There's
1528
00:54:49,666 --> 00:54:52,541
no AI copyright issues at all. Now they
1529
00:54:52,541 --> 00:54:53,666
checked with their, their
1530
00:54:53,666 --> 00:54:55,500
legal team, which is just AI.
1531
00:54:56,458 --> 00:55:02,000
Is this legal? That reminds me. There are
1532
00:55:02,000 --> 00:55:02,958
two like big
1533
00:55:02,958 --> 00:55:05,833
YouTubers that use AI for like
1534
00:55:06,333 --> 00:55:08,791
legal consultancy. One of them was, uh,
1535
00:55:08,875 --> 00:55:09,541
have you heard about Carl
1536
00:55:09,541 --> 00:55:11,500
Yopst's, uh, legal suit against
1537
00:55:11,541 --> 00:55:15,666
Billy Mitchell? I mean, yes, I have.
1538
00:55:16,041 --> 00:55:17,416
Yeah. So, uh, Billy Mitchell
1539
00:55:17,416 --> 00:55:19,375
sued Carl Yopst because Carl
1540
00:55:19,375 --> 00:55:23,291
Yopst insinuated that, uh, he, that, uh,
1541
00:55:23,541 --> 00:55:24,750
Billy Mitchell caused the
1542
00:55:24,750 --> 00:55:26,125
death of another of like a
1543
00:55:26,250 --> 00:55:29,041
contact. Oh yeah. Okay. Yeah. I've heard
1544
00:55:29,041 --> 00:55:31,291
this. Yeah. And Carl Yopst
1545
00:55:31,291 --> 00:55:33,416
put all of the facts inside
1546
00:55:33,458 --> 00:55:35,875
AI and asked who would win. And it said
1547
00:55:35,875 --> 00:55:37,916
Carl Yopst win and he lost.
1548
00:55:38,708 --> 00:55:43,500
Uh, and there was another one, uh, there
1549
00:55:43,500 --> 00:55:44,541
was another one who
1550
00:55:44,541 --> 00:55:46,791
pride himself on being a, uh,
1551
00:55:46,791 --> 00:55:49,291
hunter of terrible people. Um, I'm not
1552
00:55:49,291 --> 00:55:52,083
gonna say, I mean, probably the worst
1553
00:55:52,083 --> 00:55:53,083
people you can think of.
1554
00:55:53,791 --> 00:55:54,958
I know who you're talking about. Mama
1555
00:55:54,958 --> 00:55:56,833
Max. And, uh, it was
1556
00:55:56,833 --> 00:55:57,791
discovered that he's been
1557
00:55:57,791 --> 00:56:00,333
using chat GPT for actual legal advice.
1558
00:56:01,333 --> 00:56:05,625
Dude, I want, I, I was watching this
1559
00:56:05,625 --> 00:56:06,458
podcast the other day
1560
00:56:07,041 --> 00:56:09,875
and this guy, I don't know. I don't
1561
00:56:09,875 --> 00:56:10,750
remember who it was, but he
1562
00:56:10,750 --> 00:56:12,208
was like, all right, we need to
1563
00:56:12,208 --> 00:56:13,958
ask chat GPT for something that you
1564
00:56:13,958 --> 00:56:16,750
should just Google. And it made me so
1565
00:56:16,750 --> 00:56:18,791
crazy angry. I was like,
1566
00:56:18,791 --> 00:56:21,583
why are we asking chat GPT when you can
1567
00:56:21,583 --> 00:56:23,291
just Google it and they'll
1568
00:56:23,291 --> 00:56:24,666
come up with a better answer?
1569
00:56:25,083 --> 00:56:29,583
I don't remember. It was something, but I
1570
00:56:29,583 --> 00:56:30,375
remember it made me angry.
1571
00:56:30,791 --> 00:56:34,333
I will have to admit, depending on what
1572
00:56:34,333 --> 00:56:35,625
it is these days, I've been using chat
1573
00:56:35,625 --> 00:56:37,500
GPT more. Like I had,
1574
00:56:37,875 --> 00:56:39,750
I always forget how to get the YouTube
1575
00:56:39,750 --> 00:56:42,750
API from Google. Um, and
1576
00:56:42,750 --> 00:56:43,875
I'll Google for that. Like,
1577
00:56:43,875 --> 00:56:45,166
instead of Googling for it to find an
1578
00:56:45,166 --> 00:56:46,958
article, because whatever
1579
00:56:46,958 --> 00:56:49,000
chat GPT just has it like,
1580
00:56:49,000 --> 00:56:52,375
listen for me. It's really easy. It's so
1581
00:56:52,375 --> 00:56:54,208
hard. Chat GPT. Why does
1582
00:56:54,208 --> 00:56:54,791
Gardner Brian hate you so much?
1583
00:56:54,833 --> 00:57:00,500
I think at least answer it. It might not
1584
00:57:00,500 --> 00:57:03,291
be truthful, but yeah, it wouldn't know.
1585
00:57:03,541 --> 00:57:06,041
Google nowadays. It's a shit show of if
1586
00:57:06,041 --> 00:57:06,625
you're going to get what
1587
00:57:06,625 --> 00:57:09,000
you want. Yeah. That's why you
1588
00:57:09,000 --> 00:57:11,125
go is well, duck, duck, go. Yeah. Is, is
1589
00:57:11,125 --> 00:57:15,000
better. But even then, like, you're
1590
00:57:15,000 --> 00:57:16,083
dependent on articles
1591
00:57:16,083 --> 00:57:19,375
that are also AI generated sometimes. I
1592
00:57:19,375 --> 00:57:19,875
don't know. It's
1593
00:57:19,875 --> 00:57:22,000
interesting, which I'm not against
1594
00:57:22,000 --> 00:57:23,750
AI generated articles. Actually,
1595
00:57:24,250 --> 00:57:24,708
technically, I don't know. I don't know. I don't know. I don't
1596
00:57:25,041 --> 00:57:28,166
but they better be at least they tell me
1597
00:57:28,166 --> 00:57:30,000
what's going on. Oh my
1598
00:57:30,000 --> 00:57:32,833
God. No, he's not doing it.
1599
00:57:38,791 --> 00:57:40,875
Replace hate you with hate at GPT.
1600
00:57:45,666 --> 00:57:47,416
Dude, this is what the podcast is all
1601
00:57:47,416 --> 00:57:49,666
about. Hey, I'm down for
1602
00:57:49,666 --> 00:57:50,541
this. This is a fun journey.
1603
00:57:50,541 --> 00:57:57,375
Did it lose the what was what's the
1604
00:57:57,375 --> 00:57:58,666
company? What company do
1605
00:57:58,666 --> 00:57:59,750
you hate the most? That'd be
1606
00:57:59,750 --> 00:58:02,166
a fun one, too, though. Nintendo. Yeah.
1607
00:58:03,833 --> 00:58:04,750
They're like the most
1608
00:58:04,750 --> 00:58:05,916
litigious company in the world
1609
00:58:05,916 --> 00:58:07,583
outside of like, I don't know, the church
1610
00:58:07,583 --> 00:58:08,500
of Scientology or
1611
00:58:08,500 --> 00:58:09,583
something. Well, you know,
1612
00:58:09,583 --> 00:58:11,291
I think it would come up with an answer
1613
00:58:11,291 --> 00:58:12,375
if I said Microsoft.
1614
00:58:12,750 --> 00:58:14,625
That's a crazy statement.
1615
00:58:15,583 --> 00:58:18,166
That they're on par with church of
1616
00:58:18,166 --> 00:58:19,750
Scientology. I said
1617
00:58:19,750 --> 00:58:21,125
they're like the second most like
1618
00:58:21,458 --> 00:58:24,416
I know, but they kind of are, though.
1619
00:58:24,750 --> 00:58:27,625
Yeah. Crazy. I love how it's
1620
00:58:27,625 --> 00:58:28,875
pulling this from my website.
1621
00:58:30,000 --> 00:58:31,708
See, why does he hate Microsoft so much?
1622
00:58:31,708 --> 00:58:33,541
Yeah, they had a he has
1623
00:58:33,541 --> 00:58:35,083
not publicly expressed hatred
1624
00:58:35,125 --> 00:58:37,000
towards Microsoft. That's not true.
1625
00:58:37,250 --> 00:58:39,500
That's not true. He has a need to start.
1626
00:58:40,416 --> 00:58:42,125
Hi, here. I know the podcast. Let's see
1627
00:58:42,125 --> 00:58:44,291
how however he's been involved
1628
00:58:44,291 --> 00:58:46,583
at accuracy preference for Linux over
1629
00:58:46,583 --> 00:58:48,500
Windows. OK, true game development.
1630
00:58:50,166 --> 00:58:51,750
In an interview, Bryant mentioned that
1631
00:58:51,750 --> 00:58:53,000
while his lead developer used
1632
00:58:53,000 --> 00:58:54,041
Windows for debugging purposes,
1633
00:58:54,041 --> 00:58:56,208
he personally prefers Linux as his
1634
00:58:56,208 --> 00:58:57,791
operating choice. Is that
1635
00:58:57,791 --> 00:58:58,958
true? Is this something you
1636
00:58:58,958 --> 00:59:00,333
said in an actual interview, Gardner?
1637
00:59:01,250 --> 00:59:04,250
Yeah, I mean, wait, he
1638
00:59:04,250 --> 00:59:05,416
personally prefers Linux as
1639
00:59:05,458 --> 00:59:07,000
his operating system of choice. I mean,
1640
00:59:07,000 --> 00:59:09,708
that's true. But like I and I did say
1641
00:59:10,541 --> 00:59:12,416
because he's mentioning the interview I
1642
00:59:12,416 --> 00:59:13,291
did with our casters
1643
00:59:13,291 --> 00:59:15,000
notebook about dude links.
1644
00:59:15,500 --> 00:59:17,833
And I was talking about how Ethan, one of
1645
00:59:17,833 --> 00:59:19,333
the developers I had on my team,
1646
00:59:19,583 --> 00:59:23,000
was using Windows for for it. But I was
1647
00:59:23,000 --> 00:59:26,500
using Linux. Let's see. Also,
1648
00:59:27,458 --> 00:59:28,833
no, the export process of his game,
1649
00:59:28,833 --> 00:59:29,208
doodlings was
1650
00:59:29,208 --> 00:59:30,875
straightforward on both Linux and Windows
1651
00:59:31,000 --> 00:59:31,791
platforms with no
1652
00:59:31,791 --> 00:59:33,708
significant issues reported on either.
1653
00:59:35,166 --> 00:59:36,583
Brian Stance aligns with a broader
1654
00:59:36,583 --> 00:59:38,708
community of developers who favor Linux
1655
00:59:38,875 --> 00:59:40,500
for its open source nature, customization
1656
00:59:40,500 --> 00:59:42,291
options and developer friendly tools.
1657
00:59:43,083 --> 00:59:46,708
Yeah, I mean, I do hate Microsoft,
1658
00:59:46,708 --> 00:59:48,791
though. It's just
1659
00:59:48,791 --> 00:59:50,500
saying, I don't know. I think,
1660
00:59:51,041 --> 00:59:53,500
honestly, this is like chat GPT and
1661
00:59:53,500 --> 00:59:54,291
yourself is more
1662
00:59:54,291 --> 00:59:55,625
pathetic than Googling yourself.
1663
00:59:56,000 --> 00:59:58,458
That's so funny. Yeah, chat GPT me chat
1664
00:59:58,458 --> 01:00:00,416
GPT me say who is
1665
01:00:00,416 --> 01:00:01,333
high tech little like you
1666
01:00:01,333 --> 01:00:05,333
get spelled correctly, though. I think
1667
01:00:05,333 --> 01:00:08,708
it's fun. Like that. Yeah, like that.
1668
01:00:13,291 --> 01:00:17,375
Oh, no. Oh, see, I couldn't find you. Who
1669
01:00:17,375 --> 01:00:19,250
was high tech like the YouTuber?
1670
01:00:19,500 --> 01:00:24,750
Yeah. Yeah. I'm gonna put your name in
1671
01:00:24,750 --> 01:00:28,708
quotes, too. Oh, my God. Come on.
1672
01:00:29,333 --> 01:00:31,291
This is proving how bad of a type I am as
1673
01:00:31,291 --> 01:00:33,375
well. I've seen worse.
1674
01:00:36,541 --> 01:00:41,500
Stay like that. Yeah.
1675
01:00:41,708 --> 01:00:43,375
Okay. So it knows who you are.
1676
01:00:43,875 --> 01:00:45,750
See, he's telling me that always BS
1677
01:00:45,750 --> 01:00:46,541
polishes some of the
1678
01:00:46,541 --> 01:00:47,750
bigger tech influencers. Wow.
1679
01:00:49,583 --> 01:00:54,375
Wow. It's not citing that. That's just
1680
01:00:54,375 --> 01:00:55,791
hallucinating. I think
1681
01:00:55,791 --> 01:00:56,583
your videos are great.
1682
01:00:57,125 --> 01:00:59,958
Wow. Exactly. That's why it's reading.
1683
01:00:59,958 --> 01:01:01,125
It's reading comments or something.
1684
01:01:02,041 --> 01:01:04,791
Oh, my God. Now you need to see what it
1685
01:01:04,791 --> 01:01:06,125
says about me based on the
1686
01:01:06,125 --> 01:01:07,250
comments I get on my videos.
1687
01:01:07,750 --> 01:01:09,541
I think, yeah, games are unique enough
1688
01:01:09,541 --> 01:01:12,000
name that he may not need quotes.
1689
01:01:13,208 --> 01:01:15,500
Yeah, I think games are available to pull
1690
01:01:15,500 --> 01:01:17,166
up something. But it's going to be like,
1691
01:01:17,208 --> 01:01:20,375
in a little bit. No space.
1692
01:01:20,958 --> 01:01:25,666
Just put a space. It'll make it easier. I
1693
01:01:25,666 --> 01:01:26,458
don't I can't remember
1694
01:01:26,458 --> 01:01:27,833
if I put a space or not.
1695
01:01:28,166 --> 01:01:31,000
I do that sometimes. Wow. Wow. You've got
1696
01:01:31,000 --> 01:01:32,625
quite the resume. You even
1697
01:01:32,625 --> 01:01:33,791
have bullet points for your
1698
01:01:34,625 --> 01:01:37,541
for your summary. Honestly, I think it
1699
01:01:37,541 --> 01:01:38,666
pulled a lot of that stuff
1700
01:01:38,666 --> 01:01:39,541
from my description of my
1701
01:01:39,541 --> 01:01:42,208
YouTube channel. So wow. Let's see what's
1702
01:01:42,208 --> 01:01:43,625
going on there. Games
1703
01:01:43,625 --> 01:01:46,708
revealed. The game reviews. Game
1704
01:01:46,750 --> 01:01:50,416
reveals and trailers. Wait, what? Oh,
1705
01:01:50,416 --> 01:01:50,958
yeah, you did do
1706
01:01:50,958 --> 01:01:52,666
that. I see industry news.
1707
01:01:55,791 --> 01:01:56,375
Does this sound like the
1708
01:01:56,375 --> 01:01:57,208
channel you were thinking of?
1709
01:01:59,500 --> 01:02:02,250
It does. Yeah, does it sound like you? It
1710
01:02:02,250 --> 01:02:03,208
follows it, but I don't do
1711
01:02:03,208 --> 01:02:04,208
all that stuff very much.
1712
01:02:05,458 --> 01:02:08,625
OK, I need to. I do steam deck more than
1713
01:02:08,625 --> 01:02:09,500
anything, but I think
1714
01:02:09,500 --> 01:02:10,750
I agree. I don't know.
1715
01:02:11,458 --> 01:02:12,750
It's not going to be. It's not fully
1716
01:02:12,750 --> 01:02:15,500
accurate. But we should ask.
1717
01:02:15,500 --> 01:02:17,208
It's close. We should ask about some of
1718
01:02:17,208 --> 01:02:19,125
our friends, like our good friends.
1719
01:02:20,166 --> 01:02:23,083
But ask you to tell us about the cast of
1720
01:02:23,083 --> 01:02:24,166
the nerd nest podcast.
1721
01:02:26,708 --> 01:02:30,000
Tell me about the cast. Oh, my God.
1722
01:02:30,875 --> 01:02:34,833
Of the nerd nest podcast. All right.
1723
01:02:34,833 --> 01:02:35,458
We're going to be we're going
1724
01:02:35,458 --> 01:02:36,500
to move on after this. Yeah.
1725
01:02:37,750 --> 01:02:38,041
Holy shit.
1726
01:02:38,083 --> 01:02:44,000
Oh, my God. It is also
1727
01:02:44,000 --> 01:02:45,583
going to. Wow. That is fully.
1728
01:02:46,000 --> 01:02:48,083
It is fully hallucinating. That is
1729
01:02:48,083 --> 01:02:49,000
awesome. This needs
1730
01:02:49,000 --> 01:02:49,916
to be its own separate.
1731
01:02:50,791 --> 01:02:55,333
Oh, my God. Oh, dude, that is. I love it.
1732
01:02:55,833 --> 01:02:58,208
The cast of the nerd nest podcast is a
1733
01:02:58,208 --> 01:02:59,166
gaming and pop culture.
1734
01:02:59,875 --> 01:03:01,208
Wait, the nerd nest podcast is a gaming
1735
01:03:01,208 --> 01:03:02,958
and pop culture podcast that covers a
1736
01:03:02,958 --> 01:03:03,625
wide range of topics,
1737
01:03:03,708 --> 01:03:06,041
including gaming news, reviews, pop
1738
01:03:06,041 --> 01:03:07,208
culture discussions and
1739
01:03:07,208 --> 01:03:08,208
occasional deep dives into
1740
01:03:08,208 --> 01:03:10,708
specific subjects like anime, movies and
1741
01:03:10,708 --> 01:03:11,833
tech. I've never seen
1742
01:03:11,833 --> 01:03:12,791
them talk about anime.
1743
01:03:13,541 --> 01:03:15,125
I don't think so. I haven't. We talk
1744
01:03:15,125 --> 01:03:16,166
about it more than they do.
1745
01:03:17,208 --> 01:03:19,000
And and then it says that I'm like the
1746
01:03:19,000 --> 01:03:21,541
main host. I'm also
1747
01:03:21,541 --> 01:03:23,041
known as high tech or life.
1748
01:03:23,916 --> 01:03:25,750
So also the bill we have
1749
01:03:25,750 --> 01:03:27,541
to send this to Bill. Yeah.
1750
01:03:27,916 --> 01:03:30,666
And then it says Megan Bryant. Megan is
1751
01:03:30,666 --> 01:03:32,708
another regular of the nerd nest podcast.
1752
01:03:32,791 --> 01:03:35,791
And she proves a provides a balanced
1753
01:03:35,791 --> 01:03:38,000
viewpoint, often contributing a more
1754
01:03:38,000 --> 01:03:39,166
thoughtful and analytical
1755
01:03:39,208 --> 01:03:41,916
perspective. Her contributions help round
1756
01:03:41,916 --> 01:03:42,833
out the discussion,
1757
01:03:42,833 --> 01:03:45,000
encourage ensuring Megan Bryant.
1758
01:03:46,083 --> 01:03:47,583
Yeah, I was hoping it would be like
1759
01:03:47,583 --> 01:03:48,875
Gardner's wife or something.
1760
01:03:50,041 --> 01:03:51,500
This is just ridiculous.
1761
01:03:51,500 --> 01:03:53,625
Who's J? They don't have a J.
1762
01:03:53,958 --> 01:03:59,000
Maybe it's a J station. J station.
1763
01:03:59,916 --> 01:04:05,541
Well, there's wow. And yes, hosts. It
1764
01:04:05,541 --> 01:04:08,041
doesn't specify any get it says
1765
01:04:08,041 --> 01:04:10,041
developers, creators and fans.
1766
01:04:11,083 --> 01:04:14,000
Yeah, and fellow game fellow gamers to
1767
01:04:14,000 --> 01:04:15,333
see. That's hilarious,
1768
01:04:15,541 --> 01:04:16,791
dude. We should look at.
1769
01:04:16,791 --> 01:04:18,458
Yeah, I think we're done with this,
1770
01:04:18,458 --> 01:04:19,416
right? Or do you want
1771
01:04:19,416 --> 01:04:20,291
to come off the console?
1772
01:04:21,666 --> 01:04:24,083
It won't know off the console. Let's move
1773
01:04:24,083 --> 01:04:26,375
on. Let's we've spent some time.
1774
01:04:26,541 --> 01:04:29,416
Yeah, but it's so good.
1775
01:04:31,208 --> 01:04:33,375
We just like destroyed half of the Amazon
1776
01:04:33,375 --> 01:04:35,166
by googling that shit on there.
1777
01:04:37,208 --> 01:04:39,750
Dude, it was worth it for it to fight. We
1778
01:04:39,750 --> 01:04:41,625
finally know who high tech low life is.
1779
01:04:42,750 --> 01:04:45,666
Yeah. Yeah. I've never seen
1780
01:04:45,666 --> 01:04:47,208
you and me in the same place.
1781
01:04:47,666 --> 01:04:48,750
Yeah. Never seen you in real life high
1782
01:04:48,750 --> 01:04:50,833
tech. I Gardner's really
1783
01:04:50,833 --> 01:04:51,916
good at throwing his voice
1784
01:04:51,916 --> 01:04:53,791
or something because I now I'm thinking
1785
01:04:53,791 --> 01:04:55,000
you guys are the same person.
1786
01:04:55,583 --> 01:04:57,000
Dude, yeah, I'm just a
1787
01:04:57,000 --> 01:04:58,208
massive sigh up on you, dude.
1788
01:04:59,458 --> 01:05:03,208
Yeah, I'm really good. I James, I've I'm
1789
01:05:03,208 --> 01:05:05,000
the one who organized the whole podcast.
1790
01:05:05,000 --> 01:05:06,500
It wasn't it wasn't my alter
1791
01:05:06,500 --> 01:05:08,708
ego. My high tech low life.
1792
01:05:10,958 --> 01:05:13,083
Man, we're going to start finishing each
1793
01:05:13,083 --> 01:05:16,416
other's sentences like that.
1794
01:05:17,041 --> 01:05:18,208
You're really messed with me.
1795
01:05:18,875 --> 01:05:22,458
That's going to take too much. That's
1796
01:05:22,458 --> 01:05:23,958
going to take too much work to actually.
1797
01:05:26,958 --> 01:05:28,916
Yeah, that's like part of we
1798
01:05:28,916 --> 01:05:30,291
need to come up with like a
1799
01:05:30,875 --> 01:05:34,125
lore wiki for the for the podcast. I
1800
01:05:34,125 --> 01:05:35,208
think that would be pretty cool.
1801
01:05:35,208 --> 01:05:35,666
That'd be fun.
1802
01:05:36,208 --> 01:05:37,333
High tech is Gardner.
1803
01:05:39,041 --> 01:05:41,625
All right, let's let's move on. I'm going
1804
01:05:41,625 --> 01:05:42,625
to do this next one in
1805
01:05:42,625 --> 01:05:43,666
the voice of strong bad
1806
01:05:43,666 --> 01:05:46,416
from Homestar Runner and video GeForce
1807
01:05:46,416 --> 01:05:50,166
RTX 50 60 T I 16 gigabyte review.
1808
01:05:51,041 --> 01:05:52,541
It's not very good. All right.
1809
01:05:52,875 --> 01:05:54,125
That was good. I like that
1810
01:05:54,125 --> 01:05:55,916
was good. I like high tech.
1811
01:05:56,375 --> 01:05:57,625
Me. Go ahead and tell
1812
01:05:57,625 --> 01:05:59,041
us about this story here.
1813
01:05:59,375 --> 01:06:03,500
So the 50, 60, 60, 60, and the fit in the
1814
01:06:03,500 --> 01:06:05,541
two 50, 60s came out and
1815
01:06:07,208 --> 01:06:09,875
for some reason, the 50, 60 T.I. has more
1816
01:06:09,875 --> 01:06:11,083
VRAM than the 50, 70.
1817
01:06:11,375 --> 01:06:16,041
It's like it has 16 gigs of VRAM, whereas
1818
01:06:16,041 --> 01:06:18,208
the 50, 70 has 12 gigs.
1819
01:06:19,125 --> 01:06:23,250
And I don't know why Nvidia did this. I
1820
01:06:23,250 --> 01:06:26,000
don't know how I just don't get it.
1821
01:06:26,208 --> 01:06:29,000
They plan these many months in advance.
1822
01:06:31,708 --> 01:06:31,875
Yeah.
1823
01:06:32,291 --> 01:06:35,916
And and the 50, 60 has you can get an
1824
01:06:35,916 --> 01:06:36,750
eight gigabyte skew.
1825
01:06:37,500 --> 01:06:40,125
I think that's you know, people in my comments were I was like,
1826
01:06:40,166 --> 01:06:41,750
comments were I was talking about this in
1827
01:06:41,750 --> 01:06:43,208
a video yesterday and people were saying
1828
01:06:43,208 --> 01:06:44,583
that eight gigabytes is more than enough
1829
01:06:44,583 --> 01:06:46,625
VRAM. But is it really?
1830
01:06:47,375 --> 01:06:49,750
I mean, 1080p barely
1831
01:06:49,750 --> 01:06:52,250
in today's world. No.
1832
01:06:53,375 --> 01:06:55,500
But you're right. If it's 1080, like
1833
01:06:55,500 --> 01:06:57,875
you're definitely OK.
1834
01:06:57,875 --> 01:06:58,541
If you're playing Counter
1835
01:06:58,541 --> 01:07:00,125
Strike, go. You're fine.
1836
01:07:00,833 --> 01:07:01,916
But if you're trying to play anything
1837
01:07:01,916 --> 01:07:04,083
that's like has any serious textures,
1838
01:07:04,083 --> 01:07:05,000
like you're screwed.
1839
01:07:07,208 --> 01:07:09,500
Yeah, it's honestly a joke nowadays.
1840
01:07:09,666 --> 01:07:11,083
How little VRAM we have
1841
01:07:11,083 --> 01:07:12,666
and it's not increased much.
1842
01:07:14,458 --> 01:07:16,541
That's because they're afraid that, you
1843
01:07:16,541 --> 01:07:18,375
know, if they put too much VRAM,
1844
01:07:18,875 --> 01:07:20,250
like they're going to we're going to
1845
01:07:20,250 --> 01:07:22,541
cannibalize the enterprise sector.
1846
01:07:24,500 --> 01:07:25,791
And I think that's partially it.
1847
01:07:26,375 --> 01:07:28,916
Yeah, because like a 50 or is expensive,
1848
01:07:28,916 --> 01:07:30,666
but it's also a lot cheaper than
1849
01:07:31,458 --> 01:07:34,041
the enterprise side of Nvidia. If they
1850
01:07:34,041 --> 01:07:35,166
had if they had like 30,
1851
01:07:35,458 --> 01:07:37,583
that like 64 gigs of VRAM that I'm sure
1852
01:07:37,583 --> 01:07:39,333
many companies probably
1853
01:07:39,333 --> 01:07:40,375
would probably buy that
1854
01:07:40,375 --> 01:07:42,666
instead of, you know, well, whatever the
1855
01:07:42,666 --> 01:07:44,833
enterprise version is.
1856
01:07:46,875 --> 01:07:50,208
Oh, like they just need
1857
01:07:50,208 --> 01:07:51,625
more unified RAM, I guess.
1858
01:07:51,625 --> 01:07:54,625
I don't know more APUs like AMD just lean
1859
01:07:54,625 --> 01:07:55,750
really heavy into APUs
1860
01:07:55,750 --> 01:07:56,791
that have unified RAM.
1861
01:07:56,791 --> 01:07:57,666
But then again, you've run
1862
01:07:57,666 --> 01:07:58,875
into issues with that, too.
1863
01:07:58,875 --> 01:08:04,000
So supposedly the 5060 Ti is supposed to
1864
01:08:04,000 --> 01:08:05,541
be quite a bit better
1865
01:08:05,541 --> 01:08:08,125
than the 20, the 4060 Ti.
1866
01:08:10,583 --> 01:08:12,541
But I mean, not as really matters because
1867
01:08:12,541 --> 01:08:13,541
you're not going to be able to find this
1868
01:08:13,583 --> 01:08:14,416
and you're certainly not
1869
01:08:14,416 --> 01:08:15,666
going to be able to find an MSRP.
1870
01:08:20,375 --> 01:08:20,541
Yeah.
1871
01:08:22,083 --> 01:08:24,041
I my friend asked me to like put together
1872
01:08:24,041 --> 01:08:25,833
a gaming PC build for him.
1873
01:08:26,541 --> 01:08:27,791
And he said his budget
1874
01:08:27,791 --> 01:08:28,958
was like a thousand bucks.
1875
01:08:29,041 --> 01:08:33,125
And I was like, it's going to be it's
1876
01:08:33,125 --> 01:08:34,000
going to be hard if
1877
01:08:34,000 --> 01:08:35,208
you want to dedicate GPU.
1878
01:08:36,041 --> 01:08:36,958
Get him an AP bill.
1879
01:08:37,583 --> 01:08:39,791
Yeah, that's what I was that start out.
1880
01:08:40,000 --> 01:08:42,500
You and then you upgrade them into it.
1881
01:08:42,500 --> 01:08:43,625
That's how I would do it.
1882
01:08:44,166 --> 01:08:44,375
Yeah.
1883
01:08:45,541 --> 01:08:46,583
Upgrade into a GPU later
1884
01:08:46,583 --> 01:08:47,833
on if you have a budget.
1885
01:08:48,625 --> 01:08:49,000
Yeah.
1886
01:08:49,000 --> 01:08:52,500
Yeah. But you'd be hard pressed to find an APU
1887
01:08:52,500 --> 01:08:56,500
like CPU that wouldn't
1888
01:08:56,500 --> 01:08:57,125
actually I don't know what
1889
01:08:57,125 --> 01:08:58,375
the I don't know what the desktop side
1890
01:08:58,375 --> 01:08:59,000
looks like when it
1891
01:08:59,000 --> 01:09:00,333
comes to APUs, to be honest.
1892
01:09:02,541 --> 01:09:04,125
You have to look more into that.
1893
01:09:04,375 --> 01:09:07,125
But 5060 it's out.
1894
01:09:07,500 --> 01:09:10,583
Apparently we should try looking for some
1895
01:09:10,583 --> 01:09:13,416
like let's go on a new egg and see if we
1896
01:09:13,416 --> 01:09:14,458
can hit find any hits.
1897
01:09:14,500 --> 01:09:19,666
5060.
1898
01:09:19,750 --> 01:09:20,000
Yeah.
1899
01:09:20,000 --> 01:09:22,500
Well, let's see 5060 TI because that's
1900
01:09:22,500 --> 01:09:23,833
the more desirable one.
1901
01:09:27,166 --> 01:09:29,125
Look at a stock out of stock.
1902
01:09:30,708 --> 01:09:33,041
Yeah, this one's in stock.
1903
01:09:33,875 --> 01:09:35,000
Yeah, but that's also what?
1904
01:09:35,583 --> 01:09:37,083
That's five hundred and forty nine bucks.
1905
01:09:37,083 --> 01:09:38,000
Yeah, that's that's
1906
01:09:38,000 --> 01:09:39,500
definitely not MSRP price.
1907
01:09:40,416 --> 01:09:45,541
But you know, MSRP is supposedly four
1908
01:09:45,541 --> 01:09:46,666
hundred and twenty understanding.
1909
01:09:48,625 --> 01:09:50,583
Newegg is raising their prices on select
1910
01:09:50,583 --> 01:09:52,208
models of like Nvidia GPUs
1911
01:09:52,208 --> 01:09:53,458
by like up to four hundred.
1912
01:09:54,958 --> 01:09:56,916
I've heard that's yeah,
1913
01:09:56,916 --> 01:09:58,000
that's what I've heard too.
1914
01:09:58,000 --> 01:10:00,875
And so but you know, they'd have to be in
1915
01:10:00,875 --> 01:10:02,791
stock in order for you to like matter.
1916
01:10:04,541 --> 01:10:06,000
Yeah, I mean, all of
1917
01:10:06,000 --> 01:10:06,708
these are out of stock.
1918
01:10:07,000 --> 01:10:11,416
Yeah. I just just fuck them like a fuck it like
1919
01:10:11,416 --> 01:10:13,041
it's going to be this.
1920
01:10:13,041 --> 01:10:15,250
If I can't buy something off the shelves
1921
01:10:15,250 --> 01:10:17,125
after, you know, a month or two,
1922
01:10:17,750 --> 01:10:18,916
why does it why do I why
1923
01:10:18,916 --> 01:10:20,125
do I even care anymore?
1924
01:10:20,125 --> 01:10:21,708
Like I hate it.
1925
01:10:22,166 --> 01:10:24,625
There's they have two and this they have
1926
01:10:24,625 --> 01:10:25,708
two that are in stock and
1927
01:10:25,708 --> 01:10:28,375
this one is four ninety nine.
1928
01:10:28,375 --> 01:10:29,875
That's from from NSI.
1929
01:10:30,875 --> 01:10:31,166
Yeah.
1930
01:10:31,708 --> 01:10:32,041
Okay.
1931
01:10:32,333 --> 01:10:32,625
Listen.
1932
01:10:32,666 --> 01:10:36,541
I used to have one of
1933
01:10:36,541 --> 01:10:37,791
their graphics cards.
1934
01:10:38,625 --> 01:10:40,833
It took me six months of just our main
1935
01:10:40,833 --> 01:10:42,041
shit back and forth.
1936
01:10:42,458 --> 01:10:45,125
And I and this is before I
1937
01:10:45,125 --> 01:10:45,916
became a content creator.
1938
01:10:46,500 --> 01:10:48,000
I had I've never told the same one.
1939
01:10:48,000 --> 01:10:51,000
I've had the army six months back and
1940
01:10:51,000 --> 01:10:52,583
forth to the point
1941
01:10:52,583 --> 01:10:55,041
where by the time my 20 70,
1942
01:10:55,875 --> 01:10:58,208
I got working 20 70 and they upgraded me
1943
01:10:58,208 --> 01:10:59,166
to 20 super, by the way.
1944
01:11:00,166 --> 01:11:01,000
Mm.
1945
01:11:01,666 --> 01:11:04,166
Because I like demanded they do so I
1946
01:11:04,166 --> 01:11:07,375
channeled my inner Karen to do so.
1947
01:11:08,958 --> 01:11:13,416
But by the time I got a 40 80 super that
1948
01:11:13,416 --> 01:11:14,416
was in working condition,
1949
01:11:15,041 --> 01:11:16,458
the fucking 30 series released.
1950
01:11:18,166 --> 01:11:20,166
Yeah, that's crazy.
1951
01:11:20,958 --> 01:11:22,083
I have a 30 70 now.
1952
01:11:22,083 --> 01:11:22,500
Thank God.
1953
01:11:22,500 --> 01:11:27,083
But like I was I was not happy with MSI.
1954
01:11:27,666 --> 01:11:31,125
No, because they kept sending you lemon
1955
01:11:31,125 --> 01:11:33,083
after lemon somehow.
1956
01:11:33,083 --> 01:11:33,291
Yeah.
1957
01:11:35,958 --> 01:11:37,916
I mean, that that sounds you know, the
1958
01:11:37,916 --> 01:11:41,041
thing is, MSI to me has always stood for
1959
01:11:41,041 --> 01:11:44,333
mindless self-indulgence, which is a band
1960
01:11:44,333 --> 01:11:45,333
I used to listen to when
1961
01:11:45,333 --> 01:11:46,500
I was just in high school.
1962
01:11:49,000 --> 01:11:49,208
Nice.
1963
01:11:50,208 --> 01:11:50,416
Yeah.
1964
01:11:50,875 --> 01:11:53,583
So I don't I don't really like the MSI
1965
01:11:53,583 --> 01:11:54,750
stole my favorite band
1966
01:11:54,750 --> 01:11:55,583
when I was like a teenager.
1967
01:11:55,666 --> 01:11:58,208
Their acronym.
1968
01:11:58,500 --> 01:12:00,500
No, I think I still think I still think
1969
01:12:00,500 --> 01:12:01,666
my self-indulgence is
1970
01:12:01,666 --> 01:12:02,791
much more popular than
1971
01:12:02,791 --> 01:12:04,500
Micro Star.
1972
01:12:05,250 --> 01:12:07,916
Whatever the I stands for, you know.
1973
01:12:09,458 --> 01:12:12,041
Speaking of GPUs, though,
1974
01:12:13,000 --> 01:12:15,958
China has a new HDMI competitor,
1975
01:12:16,833 --> 01:12:17,500
GPMI.
1976
01:12:18,333 --> 01:12:19,000
This is interesting.
1977
01:12:19,000 --> 01:12:19,541
I'm just going to share
1978
01:12:19,541 --> 01:12:20,916
the doc here for this.
1979
01:12:21,125 --> 01:12:22,375
Yeah, we've got a nice table here.
1980
01:12:23,458 --> 01:12:24,458
What do what do what do what do what do?
1981
01:12:25,000 --> 01:12:26,291
What do what do we got here?
1982
01:12:26,291 --> 01:12:27,500
What's going on with this story?
1983
01:12:28,291 --> 01:12:31,041
So I say before a consortium of 50 or so
1984
01:12:31,041 --> 01:12:32,166
Chinese companies came
1985
01:12:32,166 --> 01:12:33,208
together to come up with
1986
01:12:33,500 --> 01:12:34,916
GPMI or general
1987
01:12:34,916 --> 01:12:38,458
purpose multimedia interface.
1988
01:12:38,500 --> 01:12:39,166
Media interface.
1989
01:12:39,458 --> 01:12:40,500
That sounds yeah, it sounds right.
1990
01:12:40,500 --> 01:12:41,250
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
1991
01:12:41,500 --> 01:12:44,541
So oh, we're spoiling the next topic.
1992
01:12:45,833 --> 01:12:46,750
But that's okay.
1993
01:12:46,750 --> 01:12:47,666
We'll talk about that later.
1994
01:12:47,666 --> 01:12:49,375
But anyways, there's
1995
01:12:49,375 --> 01:12:50,291
two different versions.
1996
01:12:50,583 --> 01:12:52,416
There's a type B and a type C version.
1997
01:12:53,000 --> 01:12:55,208
The type C version goes over.
1998
01:12:56,000 --> 01:12:57,708
It goes through, you know,
1999
01:12:58,000 --> 01:12:59,375
standard USB type C interfaces.
2000
01:13:00,666 --> 01:13:02,041
And the type V version is
2001
01:13:02,041 --> 01:13:04,000
a proprietary connector.
2002
01:13:04,291 --> 01:13:06,125
It's it's like it's been described as
2003
01:13:06,125 --> 01:13:07,166
looking like a sort of
2004
01:13:07,166 --> 01:13:08,791
elongated USB C port.
2005
01:13:10,125 --> 01:13:12,416
Oh, yeah, I should
2006
01:13:12,416 --> 01:13:13,333
pull up a picture of that.
2007
01:13:14,500 --> 01:13:15,500
Which I'm down for.
2008
01:13:15,500 --> 01:13:17,666
Like, honestly, just stick with these.
2009
01:13:19,208 --> 01:13:20,375
I don't think there are
2010
01:13:20,375 --> 01:13:21,666
any actual pictures of this.
2011
01:13:21,708 --> 01:13:23,250
It's just been described as such.
2012
01:13:23,750 --> 01:13:24,125
Oh, really?
2013
01:13:24,375 --> 01:13:24,541
Okay.
2014
01:13:24,708 --> 01:13:25,500
By really?
2015
01:13:25,875 --> 01:13:26,291
I swear.
2016
01:13:26,791 --> 01:13:30,166
Oh, I think there's nothing but there
2017
01:13:30,166 --> 01:13:31,333
wasn't one on Tom's hardware.
2018
01:13:31,583 --> 01:13:33,875
But yeah, I'm sure there
2019
01:13:33,875 --> 01:13:35,375
probably is a picture somewhere.
2020
01:13:36,666 --> 01:13:38,041
But if you look at it jumps out to me,
2021
01:13:38,041 --> 01:13:39,958
the most is like I
2022
01:13:39,958 --> 01:13:41,041
feel like it's just too.
2023
01:13:41,333 --> 01:13:42,708
Why do they call it type B anyways?
2024
01:13:42,958 --> 01:13:45,000
But there's it is just two types.
2025
01:13:45,000 --> 01:13:45,958
He's joined together.
2026
01:13:47,041 --> 01:13:50,000
Oh, so double the wattage, double
2027
01:13:50,000 --> 01:13:53,708
essentially double the bandwidth.
2028
01:13:54,541 --> 01:13:57,875
That is very interesting to me.
2029
01:13:58,333 --> 01:14:00,041
It's insane.
2030
01:14:02,375 --> 01:14:04,958
But the cool thing, like with the max
2031
01:14:04,958 --> 01:14:07,000
with the max stuff that I have,
2032
01:14:07,666 --> 01:14:09,500
you like if you have a MacBook, you can
2033
01:14:09,500 --> 01:14:11,000
power your MacBook through
2034
01:14:11,000 --> 01:14:12,125
your monitor and just have
2035
01:14:12,125 --> 01:14:13,500
one cord going through everything.
2036
01:14:13,500 --> 01:14:16,583
Like I my my desk so cluttered right now,
2037
01:14:16,583 --> 01:14:18,875
I do like that they're
2038
01:14:18,875 --> 01:14:19,750
offering more wattage
2039
01:14:19,750 --> 01:14:20,291
through this.
2040
01:14:20,291 --> 01:14:23,666
So if I had, let's say, an APU based
2041
01:14:23,666 --> 01:14:26,166
based desktop, that's just much smaller.
2042
01:14:26,666 --> 01:14:27,458
Like I could power it
2043
01:14:27,458 --> 01:14:28,458
through this would be awesome.
2044
01:14:29,625 --> 01:14:31,500
So does that that looks reversible?
2045
01:14:32,500 --> 01:14:33,666
If it's reversible, it'll
2046
01:14:33,666 --> 01:14:35,750
instantly be better than HDMI.
2047
01:14:36,916 --> 01:14:38,625
Yeah, but it's just too.
2048
01:14:39,666 --> 01:14:41,000
It's essentially just
2049
01:14:41,000 --> 01:14:42,375
think of it as two types.
2050
01:14:42,500 --> 01:14:43,541
He's joined together.
2051
01:14:44,583 --> 01:14:45,625
Dude, that's sick.
2052
01:14:46,083 --> 01:14:49,416
I forgot about the fact that HDMI sucks
2053
01:14:49,416 --> 01:14:51,500
because of this because I don't like to.
2054
01:14:51,500 --> 01:14:53,958
But dude, that's sick.
2055
01:14:55,625 --> 01:14:57,500
I want to be in the US.
2056
01:14:58,083 --> 01:14:59,458
It's going to make me sound like a sort
2057
01:14:59,458 --> 01:15:01,583
of a traitor to the US, but I don't care.
2058
01:15:02,625 --> 01:15:06,083
Well, HDMI is such a shitty thing anyway.
2059
01:15:06,083 --> 01:15:08,208
Like it's fully like encumbered with
2060
01:15:08,208 --> 01:15:10,125
patents and like natural property.
2061
01:15:10,416 --> 01:15:12,958
And it's so it's so stupid.
2062
01:15:12,958 --> 01:15:15,708
Like I actually hate HDMI.
2063
01:15:16,125 --> 01:15:17,500
So I don't think it makes you a traitor.
2064
01:15:17,750 --> 01:15:19,666
I take no, we need to switch over to
2065
01:15:19,666 --> 01:15:21,083
something that's universal like this.
2066
01:15:21,083 --> 01:15:22,875
That's that just makes sense.
2067
01:15:23,500 --> 01:15:26,041
The the issue that I have with this is
2068
01:15:26,041 --> 01:15:27,166
this is yet another
2069
01:15:27,166 --> 01:15:28,791
instance of a different
2070
01:15:30,416 --> 01:15:34,083
like standard using type C, and it's just
2071
01:15:34,083 --> 01:15:35,916
going to make things even
2072
01:15:35,916 --> 01:15:37,083
more confusing with type C.
2073
01:15:38,000 --> 01:15:40,083
Because it's you know, there's USB and
2074
01:15:40,083 --> 01:15:41,291
Thunderbolt, which are both like
2075
01:15:41,291 --> 01:15:43,708
inter operable as far as I understand it
2076
01:15:43,708 --> 01:15:45,083
to some degree, right?
2077
01:15:45,416 --> 01:15:48,458
It's it's ratings and it's Thunderbolt
2078
01:15:48,458 --> 01:15:50,250
has its patents under it.
2079
01:15:50,250 --> 01:15:51,500
That's why they're probably making this
2080
01:15:51,500 --> 01:15:53,791
is that this is comparable to Thunderbolt
2081
01:15:55,041 --> 01:15:55,875
four or five.
2082
01:15:55,875 --> 01:15:56,583
I think five.
2083
01:15:57,208 --> 01:15:59,250
And I bet you it's just to get around the
2084
01:15:59,250 --> 01:16:01,208
patents for Thunderbolt.
2085
01:16:02,000 --> 01:16:02,875
That makes sense.
2086
01:16:02,875 --> 01:16:03,041
Yeah.
2087
01:16:03,458 --> 01:16:04,416
Did I what did I say?
2088
01:16:04,416 --> 01:16:05,208
Did I say Thunderbolt?
2089
01:16:05,916 --> 01:16:06,166
I feel like it's.
2090
01:16:07,291 --> 01:16:08,458
Okay, you did.
2091
01:16:09,041 --> 01:16:09,708
I don't know.
2092
01:16:09,708 --> 01:16:13,333
But this this is just is GPMI going to
2093
01:16:13,333 --> 01:16:15,625
support USB for as well
2094
01:16:15,625 --> 01:16:17,250
or is it just going to be
2095
01:16:17,833 --> 01:16:19,708
dedicated for the GPMI interface?
2096
01:16:20,625 --> 01:16:22,291
Honestly, I mean, I don't know.
2097
01:16:22,291 --> 01:16:24,125
I think I think only time will tell.
2098
01:16:24,375 --> 01:16:28,625
But yeah, I mean, I it's interesting.
2099
01:16:28,625 --> 01:16:29,166
I like this.
2100
01:16:29,500 --> 01:16:30,791
I think this is neat.
2101
01:16:31,833 --> 01:16:33,250
And as long as it's not like encumbered
2102
01:16:33,250 --> 01:16:35,583
with patents and IP, I think
2103
01:16:36,416 --> 01:16:39,125
I'd like to see this come to fruition.
2104
01:16:39,333 --> 01:16:41,291
But the thing the other thing that I was
2105
01:16:41,291 --> 01:16:42,583
thinking is like these
2106
01:16:42,583 --> 01:16:43,875
are going to be hefty
2107
01:16:43,916 --> 01:16:44,875
cables, right?
2108
01:16:45,250 --> 01:16:47,458
I mean, it's going to be I'm imagining if
2109
01:16:47,458 --> 01:16:48,625
it's two USBCs
2110
01:16:48,625 --> 01:16:49,958
together, it's going to be like
2111
01:16:50,791 --> 01:16:53,083
double the the conductors
2112
01:16:53,083 --> 01:16:54,833
in the in the cable, right?
2113
01:16:55,541 --> 01:16:55,750
Yeah.
2114
01:16:56,458 --> 01:16:59,375
So with this like narrow looking thing,
2115
01:16:59,375 --> 01:17:00,250
I'm worried about like
2116
01:17:00,250 --> 01:17:01,583
stress, like pulling the,
2117
01:17:01,625 --> 01:17:05,583
you know, on the connector itself.
2118
01:17:06,500 --> 01:17:07,708
I am a little bit worried because I'm
2119
01:17:07,708 --> 01:17:08,416
looking at that connector.
2120
01:17:08,416 --> 01:17:09,250
I'm a little worried that they could
2121
01:17:09,250 --> 01:17:10,875
easily bend and break if
2122
01:17:10,875 --> 01:17:12,250
they don't have a locking
2123
01:17:12,250 --> 01:17:13,708
mechanism, a good locking mechanism.
2124
01:17:14,166 --> 01:17:17,041
But yeah, like the geometry of an HDMI
2125
01:17:17,041 --> 01:17:20,791
and a an HDMI port, it
2126
01:17:20,791 --> 01:17:23,250
feels like it's secure.
2127
01:17:23,458 --> 01:17:25,125
Like even if you have a hefty cable
2128
01:17:25,125 --> 01:17:26,125
coming off of it, it's
2129
01:17:26,125 --> 01:17:27,500
going to stay in there.
2130
01:17:27,541 --> 01:17:30,625
I just play boards, do a pretty good job.
2131
01:17:30,625 --> 01:17:32,000
They also have a locking mechanism in it,
2132
01:17:32,000 --> 01:17:33,666
which is sometimes really annoying.
2133
01:17:33,958 --> 01:17:36,666
But yeah, they let me know.
2134
01:17:36,666 --> 01:17:38,375
But I still would rather have something
2135
01:17:38,375 --> 01:17:39,250
like this and have a
2136
01:17:39,250 --> 01:17:41,458
more universal like go away.
2137
01:17:41,750 --> 01:17:43,666
Fuck HDMI display.
2138
01:17:43,666 --> 01:17:44,500
Just everything.
2139
01:17:44,500 --> 01:17:46,833
Let's just slowly go to it more unified.
2140
01:17:47,083 --> 01:17:49,166
Honestly, I'd prefer them just do two
2141
01:17:49,166 --> 01:17:51,166
types, these together in
2142
01:17:51,166 --> 01:17:52,250
one cable that has to be
2143
01:17:52,250 --> 01:17:53,791
plugged in just so that we stick with a
2144
01:17:53,791 --> 01:17:56,000
universal connector.
2145
01:17:56,958 --> 01:17:59,458
Connector, but I get why they're going
2146
01:17:59,458 --> 01:18:00,458
the other route and it
2147
01:18:00,458 --> 01:18:01,291
looks like it's a little
2148
01:18:01,291 --> 01:18:03,833
bigger than a type C, so it might have
2149
01:18:03,833 --> 01:18:07,208
room to grow with bandwidth and stuff.
2150
01:18:07,375 --> 01:18:08,250
It'll be interesting.
2151
01:18:09,000 --> 01:18:12,625
Yeah, so I mean, 480 watts is quite a bit
2152
01:18:12,625 --> 01:18:14,500
like entire computers
2153
01:18:14,500 --> 01:18:16,041
can be powered through
2154
01:18:16,041 --> 01:18:17,750
480 watts alone.
2155
01:18:18,083 --> 01:18:20,833
Yeah, but if you have a 5090, if you have
2156
01:18:20,833 --> 01:18:22,625
a 5090, it won't even power the 5090.
2157
01:18:23,291 --> 01:18:26,125
I mean, OK, not not a computer with a not
2158
01:18:26,125 --> 01:18:29,375
a computer with a dedicated GPU, but like
2159
01:18:30,166 --> 01:18:32,250
your computer with a dedicated, it could
2160
01:18:32,250 --> 01:18:34,041
still do depending on which one it is.
2161
01:18:35,375 --> 01:18:37,500
Yeah, but the power delivery is probably
2162
01:18:37,500 --> 01:18:39,000
the most interesting aspect because
2163
01:18:39,750 --> 01:18:42,250
I don't think I've ever I don't think
2164
01:18:42,250 --> 01:18:44,250
I've ever thought of a
2165
01:18:44,250 --> 01:18:45,375
essentially what it says,
2166
01:18:45,375 --> 01:18:47,375
display cable providing power.
2167
01:18:47,375 --> 01:18:48,750
But now that that's the case, I mean,
2168
01:18:49,833 --> 01:18:51,250
what possibilities could we have?
2169
01:18:51,291 --> 01:18:53,458
Can we power our PS5s
2170
01:18:53,458 --> 01:18:54,958
from just the TV alone?
2171
01:18:55,375 --> 01:18:57,083
That'd be crazy if that was true.
2172
01:18:57,750 --> 01:18:59,500
Yeah, the TV or yeah, so
2173
01:18:59,500 --> 01:19:02,125
they did it back in the 90s.
2174
01:19:02,125 --> 01:19:04,875
Like there were a couple of Macs that had
2175
01:19:04,875 --> 01:19:06,000
just a single cable
2176
01:19:06,000 --> 01:19:08,041
coming from the from the
2177
01:19:08,416 --> 01:19:09,875
like tower or whatever.
2178
01:19:10,291 --> 01:19:11,291
Max still can do that.
2179
01:19:11,583 --> 01:19:13,666
If my Mac studio, if they had this
2180
01:19:13,666 --> 01:19:15,666
connector, could do it
2181
01:19:15,666 --> 01:19:17,083
like it doesn't consume enough
2182
01:19:17,125 --> 01:19:18,333
power to hit 480.
2183
01:19:19,333 --> 01:19:22,666
But the Mac book I have, yes, it is
2184
01:19:22,666 --> 01:19:23,583
designed to be able to be
2185
01:19:23,583 --> 01:19:25,041
powered off of like a Mac
2186
01:19:25,750 --> 01:19:27,458
studio or whatever they are, the Mac
2187
01:19:27,458 --> 01:19:29,541
displays or third party displays that
2188
01:19:29,541 --> 01:19:31,083
have power throughput.
2189
01:19:31,791 --> 01:19:33,458
So you don't you get a lot
2190
01:19:33,458 --> 01:19:35,791
of like you get a lot of USB.
2191
01:19:37,375 --> 01:19:38,125
You just you get a
2192
01:19:38,125 --> 01:19:39,166
lot of benefit from it.
2193
01:19:39,166 --> 01:19:39,833
It's pretty cool.
2194
01:19:40,291 --> 01:19:41,833
I just I'm getting tired of cables.
2195
01:19:42,833 --> 01:19:44,041
And so it'd be nice
2196
01:19:44,041 --> 01:19:44,791
to have just one cable.
2197
01:19:45,500 --> 01:19:48,333
Yeah, here's a question.
2198
01:19:49,666 --> 01:19:53,000
So they have type C, which is like a USB
2199
01:19:53,000 --> 01:19:54,958
type C and they have type B,
2200
01:19:56,333 --> 01:20:00,291
which is, you know, I would I don't like
2201
01:20:00,291 --> 01:20:01,291
I don't care for this
2202
01:20:01,291 --> 01:20:02,375
naming convention here
2203
01:20:02,541 --> 01:20:05,000
because like what's type A, right?
2204
01:20:05,333 --> 01:20:07,041
Like the existence of type C
2205
01:20:07,041 --> 01:20:08,875
and type B implies a type A.
2206
01:20:09,666 --> 01:20:14,291
And also like the USB standard used to be
2207
01:20:14,291 --> 01:20:16,000
like like type A was for
2208
01:20:16,000 --> 01:20:19,458
the for the host and type B
2209
01:20:19,458 --> 01:20:22,208
was for the client or
2210
01:20:22,208 --> 01:20:23,208
whatever you would call it.
2211
01:20:23,208 --> 01:20:23,416
Right.
2212
01:20:23,500 --> 01:20:24,500
Like it was a host.
2213
01:20:25,458 --> 01:20:27,708
So I don't know that naming convention,
2214
01:20:28,083 --> 01:20:29,375
especially sticking with
2215
01:20:29,375 --> 01:20:31,916
the naming convention that USB
2216
01:20:32,625 --> 01:20:34,166
set up, it seems a little weird.
2217
01:20:34,666 --> 01:20:35,458
I don't know, man.
2218
01:20:36,083 --> 01:20:36,458
All I know.
2219
01:20:36,500 --> 01:20:38,916
All I know for sure is
2220
01:20:38,916 --> 01:20:42,625
that it's a standard.
2221
01:20:42,625 --> 01:20:43,583
We don't know if it's going to be open
2222
01:20:43,583 --> 01:20:44,291
source, to be honest.
2223
01:20:44,750 --> 01:20:46,541
But given that it's being made by the
2224
01:20:46,541 --> 01:20:48,416
Chinese like a Chinese consortium,
2225
01:20:49,416 --> 01:20:52,291
it might be more open source, not like a
2226
01:20:52,291 --> 01:20:53,750
not like a traditional like
2227
01:20:53,750 --> 01:20:55,083
it's on GitHub sort of deal
2228
01:20:55,125 --> 01:20:55,875
open source.
2229
01:20:56,750 --> 01:20:59,541
But they do tend to publish specific
2230
01:20:59,541 --> 01:21:01,166
documents in regards to these,
2231
01:21:01,166 --> 01:21:01,791
at least from what I
2232
01:21:01,791 --> 01:21:03,541
understand, like for everyone to access.
2233
01:21:04,875 --> 01:21:04,958
Yeah.
2234
01:21:05,833 --> 01:21:06,833
So there's a good chance that
2235
01:21:06,833 --> 01:21:08,500
this might be a new standard
2236
01:21:09,375 --> 01:21:11,041
that we're seeing, like the birth of a
2237
01:21:11,041 --> 01:21:11,791
new standard that
2238
01:21:11,791 --> 01:21:14,000
might not die immediately.
2239
01:21:15,458 --> 01:21:17,083
Yeah, I'm interested to
2240
01:21:17,083 --> 01:21:18,333
see where it goes for sure.
2241
01:21:21,208 --> 01:21:22,833
Speaking of something that recently died.
2242
01:21:24,958 --> 01:21:27,291
For Chan is still down, right?
2243
01:21:27,791 --> 01:21:29,000
Is it still down?
2244
01:21:29,250 --> 01:21:29,583
You should check.
2245
01:21:30,000 --> 01:21:30,125
Yeah.
2246
01:21:31,375 --> 01:21:31,750
Okay.
2247
01:21:33,125 --> 01:21:34,333
How do I check for Chan?
2248
01:21:34,750 --> 01:21:35,708
Go over whatever.
2249
01:21:36,500 --> 01:21:37,041
That word.
2250
01:21:37,208 --> 01:21:38,000
That word.
2251
01:21:38,083 --> 01:21:38,500
Yeah.
2252
01:21:38,500 --> 01:21:38,833
For chance.
2253
01:21:38,833 --> 01:21:39,291
A website.
2254
01:21:40,250 --> 01:21:41,000
Oh, God.
2255
01:21:42,291 --> 01:21:42,458
Nope.
2256
01:21:44,250 --> 01:21:45,541
No, that's an Apache
2257
01:21:45,541 --> 01:21:46,875
error right there, too.
2258
01:21:47,625 --> 01:21:48,666
They're going off of what?
2259
01:21:48,666 --> 01:21:50,250
A 10 year old version of PHP.
2260
01:21:50,250 --> 01:21:51,000
I think so.
2261
01:21:51,500 --> 01:21:53,166
I think there's a lot of stuff.
2262
01:21:53,583 --> 01:21:55,041
I watched.
2263
01:21:55,708 --> 01:21:56,166
I watched.
2264
01:21:57,208 --> 01:21:58,125
What's that guy's name?
2265
01:21:58,625 --> 01:22:00,375
I watched a guy who like went through
2266
01:22:00,375 --> 01:22:01,708
like the source code leak
2267
01:22:02,250 --> 01:22:05,416
and he was like showing how like every
2268
01:22:05,416 --> 01:22:06,625
issue with the code.
2269
01:22:07,666 --> 01:22:09,000
And it's pretty bad.
2270
01:22:09,000 --> 01:22:10,541
It's like it's a perfect
2271
01:22:10,541 --> 01:22:13,833
example of was a PHP spaghetti.
2272
01:22:14,750 --> 01:22:15,125
Was a mood.
2273
01:22:15,125 --> 01:22:16,708
A heart from some ordinary gamers.
2274
01:22:17,833 --> 01:22:20,458
No, it's a blonde guy.
2275
01:22:21,791 --> 01:22:22,541
I'll find him.
2276
01:22:22,791 --> 01:22:23,916
Oh, I mean, that sounds like something
2277
01:22:23,916 --> 01:22:25,375
ordinary gamers would do.
2278
01:22:25,375 --> 01:22:26,583
Diamond the source code for four Chan.
2279
01:22:27,458 --> 01:22:28,000
Yeah.
2280
01:22:28,125 --> 01:22:30,416
But I mean, four Chan's an old like an
2281
01:22:30,416 --> 01:22:32,291
old like dinosaur at this point.
2282
01:22:32,291 --> 01:22:33,916
It was like basically
2283
01:22:33,916 --> 01:22:34,875
bored of the internet.
2284
01:22:36,125 --> 01:22:37,750
It was birthed by a guy named Moot who
2285
01:22:37,750 --> 01:22:38,916
then sold it to the Japanese.
2286
01:22:39,166 --> 01:22:39,791
And the Japanese has
2287
01:22:39,791 --> 01:22:40,750
had it for like 10 years.
2288
01:22:41,875 --> 01:22:42,291
Oh, really?
2289
01:22:42,625 --> 01:22:44,125
I didn't realize it was Japanese owned.
2290
01:22:44,333 --> 01:22:45,458
That is crazy.
2291
01:22:46,541 --> 01:22:48,500
Well, it's Japanese owned now, but it
2292
01:22:48,500 --> 01:22:50,291
used to be home to American.
2293
01:22:51,750 --> 01:22:52,250
American.
2294
01:22:52,791 --> 01:22:53,208
American.
2295
01:22:53,833 --> 01:22:55,875
There's another example of Japanese like
2296
01:22:55,875 --> 01:22:57,375
American jobs going to Japan.
2297
01:22:57,708 --> 01:23:00,791
But I digress.
2298
01:23:01,083 --> 01:23:05,041
But four Chan is not the website.
2299
01:23:05,500 --> 01:23:09,166
I mean, four Chan has a very like has no
2300
01:23:09,166 --> 01:23:10,666
notoriety or surrounding it.
2301
01:23:10,666 --> 01:23:14,083
Given how much of given how much of the
2302
01:23:14,083 --> 01:23:15,416
internet comes from four Chan,
2303
01:23:15,875 --> 01:23:17,541
like your modern day Twitter users.
2304
01:23:18,500 --> 01:23:22,500
But for what's interesting is that it was
2305
01:23:22,500 --> 01:23:24,125
not only was it hacked and taken down,
2306
01:23:24,541 --> 01:23:26,333
but personal information was leaked,
2307
01:23:26,625 --> 01:23:27,000
especially of the
2308
01:23:27,000 --> 01:23:29,625
Janis janitors for short.
2309
01:23:30,416 --> 01:23:31,375
Those are the moderators.
2310
01:23:32,125 --> 01:23:34,708
Some people were genuinely surprised to
2311
01:23:34,708 --> 01:23:36,458
find out that four Chan has moderators.
2312
01:23:36,458 --> 01:23:37,458
Of course, they have moderators.
2313
01:23:37,666 --> 01:23:39,041
There are a website in the clear net.
2314
01:23:40,250 --> 01:23:40,458
Yeah.
2315
01:23:41,958 --> 01:23:42,416
And why?
2316
01:23:42,416 --> 01:23:43,791
But what I found surprising was that many
2317
01:23:43,791 --> 01:23:45,791
of them used dot edu emails
2318
01:23:45,791 --> 01:23:47,625
to register for four Chan,
2319
01:23:48,541 --> 01:23:49,625
which is like the dumbest
2320
01:23:49,625 --> 01:23:50,541
thing you could possibly do.
2321
01:23:50,541 --> 01:23:55,166
But there is also a bunch of dot gov
2322
01:23:55,166 --> 01:23:56,791
email addresses as well.
2323
01:23:57,000 --> 01:23:57,541
Did you hear about that?
2324
01:23:58,041 --> 01:23:59,208
I did hear about it.
2325
01:23:59,208 --> 01:24:00,416
I didn't know if that was real or not.
2326
01:24:00,416 --> 01:24:01,708
I heard I heard some people say that was
2327
01:24:01,708 --> 01:24:03,458
fake, but oh, really?
2328
01:24:03,458 --> 01:24:04,041
I mean, I don't know.
2329
01:24:04,041 --> 01:24:04,625
It might have been.
2330
01:24:04,625 --> 01:24:06,625
I just heard it on it
2331
01:24:06,625 --> 01:24:07,583
was low level learning.
2332
01:24:08,833 --> 01:24:09,666
This guy here.
2333
01:24:10,500 --> 01:24:12,375
This is who I follow for
2334
01:24:12,375 --> 01:24:13,750
like hacking news and stuff.
2335
01:24:14,000 --> 01:24:14,791
He's pretty good.
2336
01:24:14,791 --> 01:24:17,166
I like mental out for hacking news.
2337
01:24:18,083 --> 01:24:18,625
But yeah.
2338
01:24:19,375 --> 01:24:20,208
But yeah, four Chan
2339
01:24:20,208 --> 01:24:21,708
was taken down, hacked.
2340
01:24:22,541 --> 01:24:23,625
Personal information was leaked.
2341
01:24:24,500 --> 01:24:26,083
Some of them were I don't know if they
2342
01:24:26,083 --> 01:24:27,583
were professors at some
2343
01:24:27,583 --> 01:24:29,583
universities or perhaps
2344
01:24:29,583 --> 01:24:30,500
some students.
2345
01:24:32,708 --> 01:24:33,250
Four Chan's not the
2346
01:24:33,250 --> 01:24:34,208
website it used to be.
2347
01:24:34,208 --> 01:24:34,875
Let's just say.
2348
01:24:37,583 --> 01:24:39,500
Four Chan was never a good website.
2349
01:24:40,125 --> 01:24:42,416
And I can tell you how I know this
2350
01:24:42,416 --> 01:24:43,916
because when I was
2351
01:24:43,916 --> 01:24:46,125
probably 18 or 19 years old,
2352
01:24:47,041 --> 01:24:51,166
I for like a week, I was like on four
2353
01:24:51,166 --> 01:24:52,458
Chan and I was like, oh, my God,
2354
01:24:52,458 --> 01:24:53,791
this is some of the funniest shit I've
2355
01:24:53,791 --> 01:24:55,125
ever seen in my whole life.
2356
01:24:55,750 --> 01:24:58,375
And then I discovered Reddit and I was
2357
01:24:58,375 --> 01:24:59,208
like, oh, my God,
2358
01:24:59,208 --> 01:25:00,791
this is 4chan for adults.
2359
01:25:04,416 --> 01:25:05,083
Kind of.
2360
01:25:05,500 --> 01:25:05,791
Yeah.
2361
01:25:06,458 --> 01:25:09,375
And yeah, honestly, though, four Chan's
2362
01:25:09,375 --> 01:25:10,708
been defanged for a long
2363
01:25:10,708 --> 01:25:13,750
time or the claw defanged.
2364
01:25:15,083 --> 01:25:15,833
Decapitated.
2365
01:25:16,583 --> 01:25:19,166
But the point is that, I mean, honestly,
2366
01:25:19,875 --> 01:25:21,583
Reddit, I mean, not Reddit, sorry.
2367
01:25:22,375 --> 01:25:23,875
Twitter has been a lot has been worse for
2368
01:25:23,875 --> 01:25:25,625
a long for a longer time because, yeah,
2369
01:25:26,000 --> 01:25:27,750
yeah, occasionally you'd see like the
2370
01:25:27,750 --> 01:25:30,750
occasional swastika on four Chan.
2371
01:25:31,708 --> 01:25:34,500
But like there are like accounts
2372
01:25:34,500 --> 01:25:35,750
dedicated to it on Twitter.
2373
01:25:36,833 --> 01:25:39,500
And I think, yeah, I think a lot of the
2374
01:25:39,500 --> 01:25:41,083
people that were like really spicy,
2375
01:25:41,083 --> 01:25:42,791
really like just horrible
2376
01:25:42,791 --> 01:25:44,416
people moved on to other places.
2377
01:25:44,583 --> 01:25:47,291
Like they moved on to Twitter or they
2378
01:25:47,291 --> 01:25:50,333
moved on to a chance and some other ones.
2379
01:25:51,000 --> 01:25:51,208
Yeah.
2380
01:25:51,541 --> 01:25:51,958
Yeah.
2381
01:25:51,958 --> 01:25:52,333
A chance.
2382
01:25:52,333 --> 01:25:53,166
Not even on the clear anymore.
2383
01:25:53,375 --> 01:25:54,750
I don't think I think that's I think it's
2384
01:25:54,750 --> 01:25:56,333
all dark net dark web now.
2385
01:25:56,958 --> 01:25:57,166
Yeah.
2386
01:25:57,666 --> 01:25:58,291
Mm hmm.
2387
01:25:59,375 --> 01:26:00,833
Yeah, that's crazy.
2388
01:26:01,916 --> 01:26:03,000
It was I don't know.
2389
01:26:03,000 --> 01:26:08,125
So yeah, 4chan was founded, inspired by
2390
01:26:08,125 --> 01:26:09,958
the Japanese to Chan,
2391
01:26:10,208 --> 01:26:12,000
which is still on the Internet.
2392
01:26:12,333 --> 01:26:15,083
And that's why.
2393
01:26:15,083 --> 01:26:15,333
Oh, really?
2394
01:26:15,333 --> 01:26:16,041
Yeah, that's that's
2395
01:26:16,041 --> 01:26:17,541
that's why it is the way it is.
2396
01:26:17,541 --> 01:26:19,041
It was totally anonymous image board.
2397
01:26:20,625 --> 01:26:22,375
And then they're not being sold to the
2398
01:26:22,375 --> 01:26:23,750
guy that created to Chan.
2399
01:26:25,625 --> 01:26:26,833
Mm hmm.
2400
01:26:27,208 --> 01:26:30,208
Moot sold it to the I can't remember.
2401
01:26:30,208 --> 01:26:30,750
I can't remember the
2402
01:26:30,750 --> 01:26:31,916
name, but that's crazy.
2403
01:26:32,791 --> 01:26:33,125
Yeah.
2404
01:26:35,000 --> 01:26:36,916
Didn't work for Google for a while, too.
2405
01:26:38,041 --> 01:26:39,875
I think he did.
2406
01:26:39,875 --> 01:26:40,250
Yes.
2407
01:26:40,625 --> 01:26:40,791
Yeah.
2408
01:26:41,208 --> 01:26:41,583
Yeah.
2409
01:26:43,083 --> 01:26:43,708
I don't know.
2410
01:26:44,375 --> 01:26:45,541
4chan couldn't happen to a
2411
01:26:45,541 --> 01:26:47,166
nicer website getting taken down.
2412
01:26:47,500 --> 01:26:47,958
Love it.
2413
01:26:48,416 --> 01:26:48,583
Agreed.
2414
01:26:48,958 --> 01:26:50,125
I'm a big fan.
2415
01:26:51,000 --> 01:26:52,333
I think it's a boxing.
2416
01:26:52,750 --> 01:26:53,708
I don't like doxing.
2417
01:26:53,708 --> 01:26:54,375
I want to say that.
2418
01:26:54,875 --> 01:26:57,666
But, you know, fuck 4chan.
2419
01:26:57,666 --> 01:26:58,291
It's a piece of shit.
2420
01:26:59,666 --> 01:26:59,875
Yeah.
2421
01:27:01,125 --> 01:27:02,750
But this is how do you not
2422
01:27:02,750 --> 01:27:05,041
upgrade your system that long?
2423
01:27:06,125 --> 01:27:07,875
Well, a lot of Japanese websites nowadays
2424
01:27:07,875 --> 01:27:08,875
still look like they're
2425
01:27:08,875 --> 01:27:10,250
running off of like 90s tech.
2426
01:27:11,500 --> 01:27:11,750
Yeah.
2427
01:27:12,041 --> 01:27:12,875
You can still upgrade
2428
01:27:12,875 --> 01:27:13,916
the security, though.
2429
01:27:13,916 --> 01:27:15,500
Like it doesn't necessarily mean that if
2430
01:27:15,500 --> 01:27:17,416
it looks old school, that
2431
01:27:17,416 --> 01:27:19,166
it needs to be insecure.
2432
01:27:20,291 --> 01:27:21,083
I don't know, man.
2433
01:27:22,416 --> 01:27:24,291
I don't know how no one got the idea of
2434
01:27:24,291 --> 01:27:26,250
hacking 4chan either, to be honest.
2435
01:27:26,625 --> 01:27:26,833
But.
2436
01:27:28,208 --> 01:27:28,458
Yeah.
2437
01:27:28,458 --> 01:27:29,666
How did it last this long?
2438
01:27:29,666 --> 01:27:31,875
That's what I also am curious about.
2439
01:27:31,875 --> 01:27:33,208
How did it last this long?
2440
01:27:35,875 --> 01:27:38,833
You have to ask professional 4channers.
2441
01:27:38,833 --> 01:27:39,208
You could probably
2442
01:27:39,208 --> 01:27:40,166
email some of the emails.
2443
01:27:40,500 --> 01:27:41,916
But, you know, that'd be
2444
01:27:41,916 --> 01:27:43,416
like accessing the doc.
2445
01:27:44,000 --> 01:27:44,875
No, we shouldn't.
2446
01:27:44,875 --> 01:27:45,583
You shouldn't do that.
2447
01:27:46,458 --> 01:27:47,500
No, that's just going
2448
01:27:47,500 --> 01:27:48,875
to be on Twitter or X.
2449
01:27:49,500 --> 01:27:50,041
I'm good.
2450
01:27:50,625 --> 01:27:51,000
All right.
2451
01:27:51,708 --> 01:27:53,166
But in the meantime, yeah, but.
2452
01:27:56,250 --> 01:27:57,875
It's also it also happened the same week.
2453
01:28:00,500 --> 01:28:02,333
I think one of the most famous like
2454
01:28:02,333 --> 01:28:03,541
Vtuber's decided to
2455
01:28:03,541 --> 01:28:05,458
retire and graduate, they say.
2456
01:28:05,708 --> 01:28:06,666
Gao Gurra.
2457
01:28:08,625 --> 01:28:09,500
The like Shark Girl.
2458
01:28:10,416 --> 01:28:12,208
People are saying that people are saying
2459
01:28:12,208 --> 01:28:13,166
that's what happened.
2460
01:28:13,833 --> 01:28:15,166
She retired and 4chan also
2461
01:28:15,166 --> 01:28:16,625
got taken down the same day.
2462
01:28:18,083 --> 01:28:18,958
Oh, my gosh.
2463
01:28:19,208 --> 01:28:20,083
They're making conspiracy
2464
01:28:20,083 --> 01:28:21,541
theories, but, you know, it's.
2465
01:28:21,708 --> 01:28:22,833
Yeah, conspiracy theories.
2466
01:28:23,250 --> 01:28:23,875
It's 4chan.
2467
01:28:24,041 --> 01:28:24,416
Oh, yeah.
2468
01:28:24,416 --> 01:28:25,375
That's what they're known for.
2469
01:28:26,875 --> 01:28:27,250
Oh, yeah.
2470
01:28:27,583 --> 01:28:28,125
I think one of my
2471
01:28:28,125 --> 01:28:29,500
favorite 4chan incidences,
2472
01:28:30,708 --> 01:28:33,333
incidents was when they tricked Apple
2473
01:28:33,333 --> 01:28:34,375
users into microwaving
2474
01:28:34,375 --> 01:28:35,708
their phones by saying that
2475
01:28:36,041 --> 01:28:37,083
Apple implemented a new feature.
2476
01:28:38,083 --> 01:28:40,708
They put it they put a new feature where
2477
01:28:40,708 --> 01:28:41,625
you can charge a phone
2478
01:28:41,625 --> 01:28:42,958
by putting in a microwave
2479
01:28:43,208 --> 01:28:45,625
and people and people did that.
2480
01:28:46,333 --> 01:28:46,666
Yeah.
2481
01:28:47,125 --> 01:28:47,875
And then I.
2482
01:28:48,791 --> 01:28:51,000
And they also said they also tricked them
2483
01:28:51,000 --> 01:28:51,958
by saying that people
2484
01:28:51,958 --> 01:28:53,791
added that Apple added
2485
01:28:53,916 --> 01:28:56,291
waterproofing via software update.
2486
01:28:57,333 --> 01:28:58,166
And this is before
2487
01:28:58,166 --> 01:29:00,291
phones were like waterproofed.
2488
01:29:00,291 --> 01:29:03,375
Now that you have so people people tried
2489
01:29:03,375 --> 01:29:04,458
it and their phones
2490
01:29:04,458 --> 01:29:05,000
got destroyed as well.
2491
01:29:05,041 --> 01:29:10,125
No, but my favorite one was when they
2492
01:29:10,125 --> 01:29:11,458
convinced the they convinced
2493
01:29:11,458 --> 01:29:12,875
the world that Justin Bieber
2494
01:29:12,875 --> 01:29:15,166
had cancer and had to go through chemo.
2495
01:29:15,166 --> 01:29:16,625
Oh, that's right.
2496
01:29:16,625 --> 01:29:17,750
And then he went and
2497
01:29:17,750 --> 01:29:18,833
then like he went bald.
2498
01:29:19,250 --> 01:29:21,416
So they started hashtag bald for Bieber.
2499
01:29:22,875 --> 01:29:25,000
And so you had and then you had a bunch
2500
01:29:25,000 --> 01:29:26,583
of like teenage girls
2501
01:29:26,583 --> 01:29:28,000
shaving their heads bald.
2502
01:29:28,000 --> 01:29:29,291
Because of this.
2503
01:29:33,041 --> 01:29:35,250
Dude, I seem to remember at one point,
2504
01:29:35,625 --> 01:29:38,250
like, I don't know if it was true or not,
2505
01:29:38,250 --> 01:29:39,791
but they like had convinced everybody
2506
01:29:39,791 --> 01:29:42,750
that Taylor Swift was a 4channer.
2507
01:29:43,375 --> 01:29:44,666
I remember seeing that, too.
2508
01:29:45,000 --> 01:29:45,208
Yeah.
2509
01:29:46,250 --> 01:29:50,791
Because because it was a stream of
2510
01:29:50,791 --> 01:29:52,541
coincidences that led
2511
01:29:52,541 --> 01:29:53,625
people to believe that because
2512
01:29:53,833 --> 01:29:55,416
apparently she wanted to name her cat
2513
01:29:55,416 --> 01:29:58,083
something and the
2514
01:29:58,083 --> 01:29:59,708
post that got trip digits
2515
01:30:00,875 --> 01:30:02,166
said Meredith, and that was
2516
01:30:02,166 --> 01:30:03,458
apparently her cat's name.
2517
01:30:05,833 --> 01:30:06,250
Interesting.
2518
01:30:06,666 --> 01:30:07,000
I don't know.
2519
01:30:07,291 --> 01:30:07,833
I don't know.
2520
01:30:07,833 --> 01:30:11,458
Well, I remember seeing pictures like I
2521
01:30:11,458 --> 01:30:12,458
saw at least two
2522
01:30:12,458 --> 01:30:14,083
different pictures of Taylor Swift
2523
01:30:14,083 --> 01:30:16,125
that seemed to come from like a laptop
2524
01:30:16,125 --> 01:30:18,791
webcam that was posted on 4chan.
2525
01:30:18,833 --> 01:30:21,875
And it was like, hey, be I'm here to do
2526
01:30:21,875 --> 01:30:24,583
I'm I'm a I'm a popular singer or
2527
01:30:24,583 --> 01:30:25,250
something like that.
2528
01:30:25,250 --> 01:30:28,083
I don't know if it was true or not, but I
2529
01:30:28,083 --> 01:30:28,750
remember seeing that
2530
01:30:28,750 --> 01:30:29,791
and I was like, whoa,
2531
01:30:30,083 --> 01:30:33,458
whoa, so Taylor Swift's a 4channer.
2532
01:30:34,541 --> 01:30:35,541
She just like one of
2533
01:30:35,541 --> 01:30:36,708
us for real for real.
2534
01:30:37,583 --> 01:30:37,958
Yeah.
2535
01:30:39,458 --> 01:30:39,791
I don't know.
2536
01:30:39,958 --> 01:30:41,375
For real, for real, for real.
2537
01:30:41,666 --> 01:30:43,833
But I mean, everybody that was on 4chan
2538
01:30:43,833 --> 01:30:45,333
and I moved over to to X.
2539
01:30:45,666 --> 01:30:48,875
And speaking of X, our next topic
2540
01:30:48,875 --> 01:30:51,250
actually comes from from there.
2541
01:30:53,958 --> 01:30:54,125
Gross.
2542
01:30:54,708 --> 01:30:56,583
I hate going to this website now.
2543
01:30:57,041 --> 01:30:59,083
Yeah, the Internet Archive.
2544
01:31:00,500 --> 01:31:03,250
But what I hate more is
2545
01:31:03,250 --> 01:31:05,041
click on the change dot org.
2546
01:31:05,041 --> 01:31:06,125
I probably should link that instead.
2547
01:31:07,500 --> 01:31:08,708
Oh, dude, you need me to go to.
2548
01:31:08,750 --> 01:31:15,625
You did that on purpose.
2549
01:31:17,291 --> 01:31:19,500
All right.
2550
01:31:19,750 --> 01:31:19,958
Yeah.
2551
01:31:20,166 --> 01:31:22,208
So so Internet Archive is being sued.
2552
01:31:23,166 --> 01:31:24,375
What is going on with this?
2553
01:31:24,666 --> 01:31:25,250
This this is.
2554
01:31:26,583 --> 01:31:27,333
Oh, this is gross.
2555
01:31:27,541 --> 01:31:28,791
This reminds me of Napster days.
2556
01:31:29,500 --> 01:31:31,041
So they're being sued by the music
2557
01:31:31,041 --> 01:31:32,416
industry for seven
2558
01:31:32,416 --> 01:31:34,666
hundred million dollars.
2559
01:31:35,625 --> 01:31:37,125
It's like a pocket change for them.
2560
01:31:37,208 --> 01:31:39,750
But for the Internet Archive, they met
2561
01:31:39,750 --> 01:31:41,291
very well means death.
2562
01:31:44,000 --> 01:31:49,000
So the record industry Association of
2563
01:31:49,000 --> 01:31:50,500
America, the RIAA, which
2564
01:31:50,500 --> 01:31:51,916
includes big record labels,
2565
01:31:51,916 --> 01:31:54,291
like the big three, like UMG, Capitol
2566
01:31:54,291 --> 01:31:55,958
Records, Sony,
2567
01:31:57,458 --> 01:32:00,250
Concord, Bisel Assets, CMGI.
2568
01:32:02,500 --> 01:32:03,541
They're all they're all
2569
01:32:03,541 --> 01:32:06,083
collectively suing the archive.
2570
01:32:06,916 --> 01:32:10,375
And if you have the big three, then it's
2571
01:32:10,375 --> 01:32:11,416
going to be a huge deal.
2572
01:32:13,750 --> 01:32:15,958
I don't think a petition is going to do
2573
01:32:15,958 --> 01:32:17,541
anything, period on this,
2574
01:32:19,000 --> 01:32:21,708
because these guys don't care what what
2575
01:32:21,708 --> 01:32:23,916
has what would the only way to save it
2576
01:32:23,916 --> 01:32:24,875
would be on a governmental
2577
01:32:24,875 --> 01:32:26,541
level, which we're fucked on.
2578
01:32:26,791 --> 01:32:30,416
So I'm not very hopeful, but I definitely
2579
01:32:30,416 --> 01:32:32,291
think this needs to be like promoted more
2580
01:32:32,333 --> 01:32:36,208
and more to maybe then we can, because I
2581
01:32:36,208 --> 01:32:38,041
think they're very important service.
2582
01:32:39,916 --> 01:32:42,666
And it just sucks that it's come to this.
2583
01:32:43,708 --> 01:32:43,916
Yeah.
2584
01:32:43,958 --> 01:32:44,166
Yeah.
2585
01:32:44,250 --> 01:32:46,083
I mean, I mean, I think signing petition
2586
01:32:46,083 --> 01:32:47,333
is better than doing
2587
01:32:47,333 --> 01:32:48,958
nothing in this day and age,
2588
01:32:49,750 --> 01:32:51,458
because I mean, we need to agree.
2589
01:32:51,791 --> 01:32:52,500
We do need to show
2590
01:32:52,500 --> 01:32:53,375
support for the archive.
2591
01:32:53,750 --> 01:32:54,916
So if the Internet.
2592
01:32:55,208 --> 01:32:58,541
So if the news, if the
2593
01:32:58,541 --> 01:32:59,875
record label industry wins,
2594
01:33:00,000 --> 01:33:03,166
then I think this spells the death of the
2595
01:33:03,166 --> 01:33:04,750
Internet Archive as a whole,
2596
01:33:05,416 --> 01:33:08,333
not even just in our archive, but the way
2597
01:33:08,333 --> 01:33:10,208
back machine, for example,
2598
01:33:10,583 --> 01:33:13,375
is once a service they offer that is
2599
01:33:13,375 --> 01:33:15,500
going to go away forever.
2600
01:33:16,000 --> 01:33:17,208
And the Internet Archive was just
2601
01:33:17,208 --> 01:33:18,416
recently hacked like a couple of months
2602
01:33:18,416 --> 01:33:19,333
ago, if I'm not mistaken,
2603
01:33:19,333 --> 01:33:20,916
right? Yeah.
2604
01:33:21,583 --> 01:33:21,791
Yeah.
2605
01:33:22,416 --> 01:33:28,291
So I mean, there's so much stuff on the
2606
01:33:28,291 --> 01:33:29,250
Internet that's lost these days.
2607
01:33:29,291 --> 01:33:31,666
I know people say, you know, people used
2608
01:33:31,666 --> 01:33:33,208
to say that, oh, if you post something
2609
01:33:33,208 --> 01:33:33,666
in the Internet, it's
2610
01:33:33,666 --> 01:33:34,333
on the Internet forever.
2611
01:33:34,583 --> 01:33:37,041
And I mean, that's in a way that's kind
2612
01:33:37,041 --> 01:33:38,333
of true, but at the same time, though,
2613
01:33:38,333 --> 01:33:40,541
it's not really that true, because
2614
01:33:40,541 --> 01:33:41,250
there's a lot of lost
2615
01:33:41,250 --> 01:33:42,166
media on the Internet
2616
01:33:42,166 --> 01:33:43,916
that cannot be accessed anymore except
2617
01:33:43,916 --> 01:33:45,875
through the wayback machine.
2618
01:33:46,208 --> 01:33:47,833
And if they die, then we just lose
2619
01:33:47,833 --> 01:33:50,208
probably half of the archived Internet.
2620
01:33:52,833 --> 01:33:53,041
Yeah.
2621
01:33:53,291 --> 01:33:53,500
Yeah.
2622
01:33:53,541 --> 01:33:56,500
I mean, and the problem is like, you
2623
01:33:56,500 --> 01:33:59,458
know, Wikipedia was also
2624
01:33:59,458 --> 01:34:00,833
getting attacked recently.
2625
01:34:01,291 --> 01:34:03,041
And so I went and downloaded the entire
2626
01:34:03,041 --> 01:34:04,916
Wikipedia archive, right?
2627
01:34:04,916 --> 01:34:06,625
Because it's like the English archive is
2628
01:34:06,625 --> 01:34:07,666
a couple of terabytes.
2629
01:34:07,666 --> 01:34:09,500
It's not very big. Oh, OK.
2630
01:34:10,333 --> 01:34:10,666
With or without?
2631
01:34:10,916 --> 01:34:12,791
You can't with with
2632
01:34:12,791 --> 01:34:14,208
images and media and stuff.
2633
01:34:16,208 --> 01:34:17,708
And if you just download the text, it's
2634
01:34:17,708 --> 01:34:19,000
only like 28 gigabytes.
2635
01:34:19,375 --> 01:34:21,000
Like it's not very big at all.
2636
01:34:21,125 --> 01:34:25,125
So and you can do that with the English
2637
01:34:25,125 --> 01:34:27,250
Wikipedia, but you cannot
2638
01:34:27,750 --> 01:34:29,666
like archive the Internet
2639
01:34:29,666 --> 01:34:31,916
archive like it is so massive.
2640
01:34:34,250 --> 01:34:37,166
It's just it's crazy to think that like
2641
01:34:37,166 --> 01:34:39,000
the Internet archive
2642
01:34:39,000 --> 01:34:40,666
is like under attack.
2643
01:34:40,708 --> 01:34:42,666
And it has been for a while now.
2644
01:34:43,208 --> 01:34:45,833
And I kind of wonder why, like, why are
2645
01:34:45,833 --> 01:34:46,958
they being targeted?
2646
01:34:47,500 --> 01:34:49,541
And I think that it has to do with the
2647
01:34:49,541 --> 01:34:50,583
fact that they actually
2648
01:34:50,583 --> 01:34:52,083
care about preservation.
2649
01:34:52,500 --> 01:34:53,916
And it's like they're
2650
01:34:53,916 --> 01:34:56,500
they're truly interested in like
2651
01:34:58,000 --> 01:35:00,833
being like a source of
2652
01:35:00,833 --> 01:35:02,958
information that can be referenced.
2653
01:35:03,291 --> 01:35:04,166
Because right now,
2654
01:35:04,625 --> 01:35:05,583
information is a threat.
2655
01:35:06,791 --> 01:35:10,416
And well, information is getting taken
2656
01:35:10,416 --> 01:35:12,541
down on a governmental level, too.
2657
01:35:12,791 --> 01:35:13,875
Like there's there's a lot of
2658
01:35:13,875 --> 01:35:16,291
organizations and like people on Reddit
2659
01:35:16,958 --> 01:35:19,083
there's a couple of groups on Reddit that
2660
01:35:19,083 --> 01:35:20,916
are all about preservation.
2661
01:35:21,333 --> 01:35:23,541
And they're downloading government
2662
01:35:23,541 --> 01:35:24,666
websites because they're
2663
01:35:24,666 --> 01:35:26,125
they're just destroying
2664
01:35:26,416 --> 01:35:29,083
like important information there. Yeah.
2665
01:35:30,500 --> 01:35:31,416
Which is crazy.
2666
01:35:31,750 --> 01:35:34,750
And so I think the best way to actually
2667
01:35:34,750 --> 01:35:36,458
combat this is a decentralized way.
2668
01:35:37,583 --> 01:35:41,250
I actually this is Torrance
2669
01:35:41,250 --> 01:35:42,125
or whatever you want to do.
2670
01:35:42,125 --> 01:35:44,375
Like I don't know if that's quite the
2671
01:35:44,375 --> 01:35:45,375
right technology, but like
2672
01:35:45,625 --> 01:35:48,833
decentralized. I think if they move to a
2673
01:35:48,833 --> 01:35:50,125
technology that's more decentralized,
2674
01:35:50,875 --> 01:35:53,625
where multiple places are hosting it, I
2675
01:35:53,625 --> 01:35:55,541
think it will help save it.
2676
01:35:55,541 --> 01:35:56,958
I think that's maybe another way we could
2677
01:35:56,958 --> 01:35:59,583
save it is by changing the way that we
2678
01:35:59,583 --> 01:36:02,041
consume it slash host it.
2679
01:36:04,125 --> 01:36:05,750
Honestly, man, I would hate for the
2680
01:36:05,750 --> 01:36:07,416
Internet archive to go under.
2681
01:36:08,791 --> 01:36:10,208
Honestly, I can see the Internet.
2682
01:36:10,208 --> 01:36:12,250
I can see the Internet archive going
2683
01:36:12,250 --> 01:36:13,416
exclusively on the dark net.
2684
01:36:13,458 --> 01:36:15,791
If this were to come to pass, maybe.
2685
01:36:17,291 --> 01:36:18,666
Even if they I mean.
2686
01:36:20,000 --> 01:36:21,875
I think that there's such like an
2687
01:36:21,875 --> 01:36:23,250
important institution that
2688
01:36:23,250 --> 01:36:25,625
like they need to move defensively
2689
01:36:26,625 --> 01:36:29,166
to like spin off the way back machine or
2690
01:36:29,166 --> 01:36:30,791
something into its own
2691
01:36:30,791 --> 01:36:32,291
nonprofit or something.
2692
01:36:33,916 --> 01:36:35,541
Because they the Internet archive is just
2693
01:36:35,541 --> 01:36:37,500
being attacked so egregiously
2694
01:36:38,166 --> 01:36:40,916
that maybe the Internet archive should
2695
01:36:40,916 --> 01:36:42,250
just be a sacrificial lamb.
2696
01:36:44,083 --> 01:36:46,916
Like I hate to say that, but like the way
2697
01:36:46,916 --> 01:36:48,291
back machine is so critical.
2698
01:36:49,500 --> 01:36:50,666
I don't know.
2699
01:36:53,875 --> 01:36:56,458
I yeah, I think we have
2700
01:36:56,458 --> 01:36:57,666
technologies to save it.
2701
01:36:57,666 --> 01:37:00,000
It's just and it will be up to the.
2702
01:37:01,333 --> 01:37:04,416
The people that hosted and take care of
2703
01:37:04,416 --> 01:37:05,958
it to decide on which way they go,
2704
01:37:05,958 --> 01:37:07,875
but I don't think it's going to be what
2705
01:37:07,875 --> 01:37:08,958
like this is going to be.
2706
01:37:09,500 --> 01:37:12,458
Detrimental and.
2707
01:37:13,708 --> 01:37:15,833
I I I just don't I don't I think they're
2708
01:37:15,833 --> 01:37:17,458
going to lose the lawsuit, but we'll see.
2709
01:37:18,375 --> 01:37:19,541
I hope so.
2710
01:37:19,541 --> 01:37:20,125
Yeah, I mean.
2711
01:37:21,583 --> 01:37:22,875
You hope they lose it.
2712
01:37:23,541 --> 01:37:25,250
No, I mean not in the archive.
2713
01:37:25,250 --> 01:37:27,375
I hope sorry I came out wrong.
2714
01:37:28,291 --> 01:37:31,291
I hope I hope they win the lawsuit and
2715
01:37:31,291 --> 01:37:33,750
that the record labels lose, but I mean.
2716
01:37:34,166 --> 01:37:35,333
Oh, I do too.
2717
01:37:35,875 --> 01:37:36,125
It's just.
2718
01:37:36,250 --> 01:37:36,958
It's just.
2719
01:37:38,041 --> 01:37:38,916
It's the record label.
2720
01:37:38,916 --> 01:37:40,541
They have so much money backing them.
2721
01:37:40,791 --> 01:37:42,583
The the the record labels are just
2722
01:37:42,583 --> 01:37:44,291
notorious for this type of shit and they.
2723
01:37:46,625 --> 01:37:48,875
It could be just maybe they they take
2724
01:37:48,875 --> 01:37:50,375
down whatever they
2725
01:37:50,375 --> 01:37:51,750
want them to take down,
2726
01:37:51,750 --> 01:37:53,708
which are they like are there.
2727
01:37:55,625 --> 01:37:58,625
Records were like music being hosted.
2728
01:37:59,958 --> 01:38:02,541
So they're targeting the Internet
2729
01:38:02,541 --> 01:38:04,333
archives efforts to preserve and provide
2730
01:38:04,333 --> 01:38:05,291
access to historical
2731
01:38:05,583 --> 01:38:09,791
78 RPM records and it's about
2732
01:38:09,791 --> 01:38:13,958
early jazz gospel blues folk.
2733
01:38:15,125 --> 01:38:17,333
That's the great 78 project.
2734
01:38:18,708 --> 01:38:20,875
The grace of a project interesting so.
2735
01:38:22,291 --> 01:38:23,500
They could always I wonder if they could
2736
01:38:23,500 --> 01:38:24,791
spin that off and try to
2737
01:38:24,791 --> 01:38:25,958
save it on a different.
2738
01:38:27,833 --> 01:38:30,000
Um like not like not.
2739
01:38:30,375 --> 01:38:31,083
Or anything else.
2740
01:38:32,041 --> 01:38:33,875
Yeah, I mean if it's the same people then
2741
01:38:33,875 --> 01:38:34,708
I think they're still going to be.
2742
01:38:35,875 --> 01:38:37,083
Targets regardless.
2743
01:38:37,833 --> 01:38:40,541
I know, but it could help not take down
2744
01:38:40,541 --> 01:38:42,083
the whole thing and maybe
2745
01:38:42,083 --> 01:38:43,208
decentralized it some more.
2746
01:38:43,208 --> 01:38:44,875
Anyways to into projects, but.
2747
01:38:46,000 --> 01:38:48,291
So how old are these that's the thing
2748
01:38:48,291 --> 01:38:50,958
like there there are limitations on
2749
01:38:50,958 --> 01:38:52,625
copyright like yeah.
2750
01:38:53,666 --> 01:38:56,291
I mean if they were if if the stuff that
2751
01:38:56,291 --> 01:38:57,625
they're archiving was like
2752
01:38:57,625 --> 01:39:00,250
new releases back then then
2753
01:39:00,333 --> 01:39:03,000
anything on 78 should have fallen out of
2754
01:39:03,000 --> 01:39:04,958
copyright according to like
2755
01:39:04,958 --> 01:39:06,708
traditional copyright law.
2756
01:39:07,291 --> 01:39:08,708
Not like the modern bullshit.
2757
01:39:09,833 --> 01:39:10,041
Okay.
2758
01:39:11,291 --> 01:39:13,333
But like I mean Star Wars should have
2759
01:39:13,333 --> 01:39:14,166
been out of copyright
2760
01:39:14,166 --> 01:39:16,250
already and it's not so.
2761
01:39:16,833 --> 01:39:18,750
So so it's records
2762
01:39:18,750 --> 01:39:23,125
from 1898 to the 1950s.
2763
01:39:23,750 --> 01:39:25,500
Jesus fucking Christ dude.
2764
01:39:26,333 --> 01:39:30,166
So we have we have records from over
2765
01:39:30,166 --> 01:39:32,166
literally over 100 years ago.
2766
01:39:34,041 --> 01:39:36,250
Yeah, I think if they just tone that down
2767
01:39:36,250 --> 01:39:38,916
by like 1020 years I think the.
2768
01:39:40,000 --> 01:39:44,625
Disney how they fucked up the copyright I
2769
01:39:44,625 --> 01:39:46,083
think will be fair use so
2770
01:39:46,083 --> 01:39:47,250
they just tone it down a
2771
01:39:47,250 --> 01:39:48,833
little bit and just wait a year like 10
2772
01:39:48,833 --> 01:39:50,041
years to just re upload
2773
01:39:50,041 --> 01:39:51,916
them will be fine, but.
2774
01:39:52,875 --> 01:39:55,333
This is still crazy that
2775
01:39:55,333 --> 01:39:56,166
they're going after this.
2776
01:39:56,875 --> 01:39:58,291
It's insane dude.
2777
01:39:59,166 --> 01:40:01,958
Well the problem what I don't think well
2778
01:40:01,958 --> 01:40:03,833
I don't know man it's the
2779
01:40:03,833 --> 01:40:06,208
music they're notorious for all
2780
01:40:06,208 --> 01:40:08,708
the sorts of things they've changed the
2781
01:40:08,708 --> 01:40:09,666
landscape they've changed
2782
01:40:09,666 --> 01:40:11,291
the landscapes of entire like
2783
01:40:11,291 --> 01:40:14,166
platforms to like YouTube used to be like
2784
01:40:14,166 --> 01:40:15,458
this wasteland of you
2785
01:40:15,458 --> 01:40:16,125
could listen to whatever you
2786
01:40:16,166 --> 01:40:18,458
want and do anything like.
2787
01:40:19,791 --> 01:40:22,416
But now if you like put in more than 10
2788
01:40:22,416 --> 01:40:23,500
seconds of a copyright
2789
01:40:23,500 --> 01:40:24,541
song you're gonna get.
2790
01:40:25,625 --> 01:40:27,000
You're gonna get obliterated.
2791
01:40:27,500 --> 01:40:30,250
Dude I get fucked if it's just like a
2792
01:40:30,250 --> 01:40:31,541
second I feel like and
2793
01:40:31,541 --> 01:40:33,750
they can detect it like it's.
2794
01:40:34,041 --> 01:40:36,500
Yeah Google's Google systems have gotten
2795
01:40:36,500 --> 01:40:37,541
a lot better and I
2796
01:40:37,541 --> 01:40:38,958
detect the stuff because.
2797
01:40:40,333 --> 01:40:43,041
Of like the legal love because of all the
2798
01:40:43,041 --> 01:40:44,375
stuff from the music industry.
2799
01:40:44,416 --> 01:40:46,000
Yeah.
2800
01:40:46,250 --> 01:40:47,541
And twitch too actually.
2801
01:40:49,166 --> 01:40:50,500
Because people used to stream whatever
2802
01:40:50,500 --> 01:40:51,625
music they wanted and
2803
01:40:51,625 --> 01:40:52,958
listen to it at the same time
2804
01:40:52,958 --> 01:40:55,416
talking but but then the record label
2805
01:40:55,416 --> 01:40:58,958
industry hit and then yeah a lot of those
2806
01:40:58,958 --> 01:41:00,333
bonds are in danger.
2807
01:41:01,541 --> 01:41:04,000
But on the flip side I think the the
2808
01:41:04,000 --> 01:41:05,833
artists need to get paid
2809
01:41:05,833 --> 01:41:07,500
like I think it's really.
2810
01:41:07,833 --> 01:41:10,375
The artists need to get paid but guess
2811
01:41:10,375 --> 01:41:11,791
who isn't paying them yeah
2812
01:41:11,791 --> 01:41:13,166
exactly that's what I'm saying
2813
01:41:13,458 --> 01:41:16,000
at the end of the day I'm for all that
2814
01:41:16,000 --> 01:41:18,875
and I'm for actually some
2815
01:41:18,875 --> 01:41:20,208
like you just can't play
2816
01:41:20,208 --> 01:41:23,333
an artist on YouTube that's just messed
2817
01:41:23,333 --> 01:41:25,500
up but and not pay them
2818
01:41:25,500 --> 01:41:27,208
but yeah it's it's really
2819
01:41:27,208 --> 01:41:28,875
they're they're getting so like artists
2820
01:41:28,875 --> 01:41:29,666
at the end of the day are
2821
01:41:29,666 --> 01:41:30,583
the ones getting screwed the
2822
01:41:30,583 --> 01:41:31,625
most out of all this.
2823
01:41:31,625 --> 01:41:33,750
Well yeah that's why I mean it's it's
2824
01:41:33,750 --> 01:41:34,583
basically common also at
2825
01:41:34,583 --> 01:41:36,083
this point a lot of artists have
2826
01:41:36,083 --> 01:41:37,958
to go out and perform concerts and all
2827
01:41:37,958 --> 01:41:39,166
that stuff to make a buck to
2828
01:41:39,166 --> 01:41:40,791
like make more than a dollar
2829
01:41:41,375 --> 01:41:42,166
per sale.
2830
01:41:44,458 --> 01:41:46,875
Yeah well and none of the artists that
2831
01:41:46,875 --> 01:41:48,875
they're trying to protect in the in the
2832
01:41:48,958 --> 01:41:51,791
78 project are alive for the most part.
2833
01:41:52,750 --> 01:41:54,958
So yeah in pretty.
2834
01:41:56,458 --> 01:41:59,083
Yeah concert tickets have gotten out of
2835
01:41:59,083 --> 01:42:01,416
control as well like yeah
2836
01:42:01,416 --> 01:42:03,000
ticket master and all those
2837
01:42:03,291 --> 01:42:05,166
they're really expensive they were always
2838
01:42:05,166 --> 01:42:07,333
really expensive like even before this
2839
01:42:08,166 --> 01:42:11,083
the recession but now honestly people
2840
01:42:11,083 --> 01:42:12,041
just aren't gonna see it
2841
01:42:12,041 --> 01:42:13,041
you know like you have a
2842
01:42:13,041 --> 01:42:14,916
you have Beyonce at a concert and it
2843
01:42:14,916 --> 01:42:15,708
doesn't matter no one's
2844
01:42:15,708 --> 01:42:16,583
gonna want to see her because
2845
01:42:16,583 --> 01:42:18,583
she's a fucking expensive her concerts
2846
01:42:18,583 --> 01:42:21,166
are so expensive right yeah
2847
01:42:21,166 --> 01:42:25,708
and I don't know man it's.
2848
01:42:25,916 --> 01:42:29,541
Yeah I mean look if you believe like I'm
2849
01:42:29,541 --> 01:42:30,500
talking to the audience here
2850
01:42:30,500 --> 01:42:32,125
if you guys believe in what
2851
01:42:32,166 --> 01:42:33,916
the internet archive does you can donate
2852
01:42:33,916 --> 01:42:36,250
yeah and and make it a
2853
01:42:36,250 --> 01:42:38,000
monthly donation because what
2854
01:42:38,000 --> 01:42:41,791
they do here is critical work and they
2855
01:42:41,791 --> 01:42:43,583
need they need support right now.
2856
01:42:44,583 --> 01:42:46,708
Yeah and they are a non-profit charity
2857
01:42:46,708 --> 01:42:49,083
legally speaking they have
2858
01:42:49,083 --> 01:42:50,166
they you can look up their
2859
01:42:50,250 --> 01:42:52,500
tax you look at their tax information
2860
01:42:52,500 --> 01:42:54,458
because they provide their tax ID number.
2861
01:42:55,375 --> 01:43:01,750
Right there yeah so they're very
2862
01:43:01,750 --> 01:43:03,458
transparent about what they do
2863
01:43:04,083 --> 01:43:04,958
they're going to save
2864
01:43:04,958 --> 01:43:06,666
history we'll just say.
2865
01:43:09,125 --> 01:43:11,375
Yeah I mean archivists and journalists
2866
01:43:11,375 --> 01:43:12,625
always get attacked.
2867
01:43:15,458 --> 01:43:17,083
And it's important to know to understand
2868
01:43:17,083 --> 01:43:17,833
the history and that's what they're
2869
01:43:17,875 --> 01:43:22,250
that's what they're doing nine they have
2870
01:43:22,250 --> 01:43:24,666
over 99 petabytes of data.
2871
01:43:26,625 --> 01:43:30,541
That's so crazy yeah damn and I see you
2872
01:43:30,541 --> 01:43:31,333
know people like Linus
2873
01:43:31,333 --> 01:43:32,375
Tech Tips they only have
2874
01:43:32,375 --> 01:43:37,291
one petabyte of storage let alone 99 of
2875
01:43:37,291 --> 01:43:39,000
those like holy shit.
2876
01:43:40,166 --> 01:43:41,625
That's crazy you really couldn't archive
2877
01:43:41,625 --> 01:43:42,375
the internet you'd have to like split it amongst
2878
01:43:42,416 --> 01:43:49,000
multiple different like people if like
2879
01:43:49,000 --> 01:43:50,916
the data servers won't handle them I
2880
01:43:50,916 --> 01:43:52,416
don't know it's crazy.
2881
01:43:53,666 --> 01:43:56,791
Yeah I mean literally attacking attacking
2882
01:43:56,791 --> 01:43:58,583
the internet archive to me
2883
01:43:58,583 --> 01:44:00,083
is almost as bad as burning
2884
01:44:00,083 --> 01:44:04,541
books like in some ways it's it's worse
2885
01:44:04,541 --> 01:44:08,708
because I think you'd books are are
2886
01:44:08,708 --> 01:44:09,250
physical you're going
2887
01:44:09,291 --> 01:44:11,375
to find some of those physical books
2888
01:44:11,375 --> 01:44:13,541
eventually but digital
2889
01:44:13,541 --> 01:44:16,500
archive like I guess maybe some of
2890
01:44:16,500 --> 01:44:19,416
it split off but it's so we kind of have
2891
01:44:19,416 --> 01:44:21,041
of some of these
2892
01:44:21,041 --> 01:44:23,125
services that's all there is.
2893
01:44:23,375 --> 01:44:25,375
Yeah this is it's a preservation of
2894
01:44:25,375 --> 01:44:29,875
culture and you know attacking them is
2895
01:44:29,875 --> 01:44:31,166
the erasure of culture
2896
01:44:31,791 --> 01:44:33,791
I mean just think of like just think of
2897
01:44:33,791 --> 01:44:34,916
the video game industry
2898
01:44:34,916 --> 01:44:38,541
and how like critically awful
2899
01:44:38,875 --> 01:44:40,583
the video game industry is when it comes
2900
01:44:40,583 --> 01:44:42,500
to preservation and
2901
01:44:42,500 --> 01:44:45,125
then the RIAA is worse like
2902
01:44:45,833 --> 01:44:48,958
orders of magnitude worse um they're
2903
01:44:48,958 --> 01:44:49,916
going after them for
2904
01:44:49,916 --> 01:44:51,416
hundred-year-old recordings
2905
01:44:52,166 --> 01:44:55,666
like this is insane I'm literally live it
2906
01:44:55,666 --> 01:44:56,625
I need to move on because
2907
01:44:56,625 --> 01:44:57,750
I'm going to like my blood
2908
01:44:57,750 --> 01:44:59,791
pressure is going to Scott keep going
2909
01:44:59,791 --> 01:45:00,833
through the roof goes
2910
01:45:00,833 --> 01:45:02,708
completely against what patents and
2911
01:45:02,875 --> 01:45:04,916
copywriter for that's what it is what it
2912
01:45:04,916 --> 01:45:07,208
is it's completely against
2913
01:45:07,208 --> 01:45:11,208
it yep yep let's move on so we
2914
01:45:11,208 --> 01:45:15,041
have a more lighthearted topic at hand 19
2915
01:45:15,041 --> 01:45:16,916
of Japanese people in
2916
01:45:16,916 --> 01:45:18,791
their 20s has spent so much
2917
01:45:18,791 --> 01:45:21,333
on gotcha that they've struggled to cover
2918
01:45:21,333 --> 01:45:22,958
living expenses survey
2919
01:45:22,958 --> 01:45:27,291
reveals this is crazy uh what it
2920
01:45:27,458 --> 01:45:30,250
what's going on with this so why for the
2921
01:45:30,250 --> 01:45:31,250
audience if you're
2922
01:45:31,250 --> 01:45:32,708
unfamiliar with the concept of what a
2923
01:45:32,708 --> 01:45:35,208
gotcha is it's basically like the
2924
01:45:35,208 --> 01:45:36,916
original gotcha before video games came
2925
01:45:36,916 --> 01:45:37,666
out were like little
2926
01:45:37,666 --> 01:45:39,583
vending machines with little capsules and
2927
01:45:39,583 --> 01:45:40,375
you get toys out of them
2928
01:45:40,375 --> 01:45:41,458
I'm sure you've seen them
2929
01:45:41,750 --> 01:45:44,708
here in the US as well right guys oh yeah
2930
01:45:44,708 --> 01:45:46,833
but in this case
2931
01:45:46,833 --> 01:45:49,000
gotcha games are games where
2932
01:45:49,500 --> 01:45:53,375
you know characters items means of
2933
01:45:53,375 --> 01:45:55,083
progression are locked
2934
01:45:55,083 --> 01:45:57,291
behind having to roll the gotcha
2935
01:45:58,416 --> 01:46:01,291
and they're they make a shitload of money
2936
01:46:01,291 --> 01:46:03,125
if you if you make it big
2937
01:46:03,125 --> 01:46:04,250
you'd make a shitload of money
2938
01:46:04,250 --> 01:46:06,916
but if you don't then you're fucked let's
2939
01:46:06,916 --> 01:46:09,708
just say quick question
2940
01:46:09,708 --> 01:46:12,583
is this like gotcha like
2941
01:46:12,708 --> 01:46:15,958
G-O-T-C-H-A or is that or is this like a
2942
01:46:15,958 --> 01:46:17,416
Japanese it's a Japanese word it's a
2943
01:46:17,416 --> 01:46:18,458
gotcha pond for short
2944
01:46:18,541 --> 01:46:25,958
actually all right but uh essentially if
2945
01:46:25,958 --> 01:46:26,916
you look at the data
2946
01:46:28,958 --> 01:46:30,916
there's all this data right here they
2947
01:46:30,916 --> 01:46:32,125
spent this is shocking
2948
01:46:34,416 --> 01:46:38,625
20 like almost 20 of all people spend too
2949
01:46:38,625 --> 01:46:40,208
much on video games and
2950
01:46:40,208 --> 01:46:41,583
they can't cover basic living
2951
01:46:41,916 --> 01:46:44,541
this is Japan by the way not the US I'm
2952
01:46:44,541 --> 01:46:48,541
sure and only 30 and all in
2953
01:46:48,958 --> 01:46:51,250
only like 24 percent of them actually
2954
01:46:51,250 --> 01:46:57,875
regret this decision only 24 percent
2955
01:46:59,333 --> 01:47:01,916
yes that one is yeah it's saying if you
2956
01:47:01,916 --> 01:47:03,250
people that regret yes
2957
01:47:03,250 --> 01:47:07,500
that's crazy spent money okay so
2958
01:47:07,541 --> 01:47:10,333
spent money on uh in-game purchases to
2959
01:47:10,333 --> 01:47:11,083
the extent of not being
2960
01:47:11,083 --> 01:47:12,375
able to cover living expenses
2961
01:47:12,791 --> 01:47:15,458
and that's 18.9 percent of all like both
2962
01:47:15,458 --> 01:47:16,500
men and women yeah yeah it's
2963
01:47:16,500 --> 01:47:17,500
a sample and the regretting
2964
01:47:17,500 --> 01:47:19,083
spending money it was a sample size of a
2965
01:47:19,083 --> 01:47:22,125
thousand people yeah yeah and
2966
01:47:22,125 --> 01:47:23,416
then and then the percentage
2967
01:47:23,416 --> 01:47:25,458
of all men and women in the study who
2968
01:47:25,458 --> 01:47:26,833
regret spending that much
2969
01:47:26,833 --> 01:47:28,000
money on in-game purchases
2970
01:47:28,000 --> 01:47:33,083
is only 20 or 23.9 percent um I'm sorry
2971
01:47:33,083 --> 01:47:34,916
but that just doesn't that
2972
01:47:34,916 --> 01:47:36,625
just doesn't add up to me like
2973
01:47:36,625 --> 01:47:38,541
if you can't cover your living expenses
2974
01:47:38,541 --> 01:47:41,375
and you don't regret it like what is
2975
01:47:41,375 --> 01:47:42,458
wrong with you it's a
2976
01:47:42,458 --> 01:47:44,916
it's it comes down to I think a mental um
2977
01:47:44,916 --> 01:47:46,333
mental illness or like an
2978
01:47:46,333 --> 01:47:48,958
issue on like uh that needs to
2979
01:47:48,958 --> 01:47:53,708
be resolved but like 76 percent of these
2980
01:47:53,708 --> 01:47:54,750
people have some kind of
2981
01:47:54,750 --> 01:47:58,375
mental issue no 76 is no so
2982
01:47:58,375 --> 01:48:00,625
that means they don't yeah that means
2983
01:48:00,625 --> 01:48:02,708
they don't regret it so I mean
2984
01:48:02,708 --> 01:48:04,541
part of it is also that maybe
2985
01:48:04,625 --> 01:48:06,083
those aren't the some of those people
2986
01:48:06,083 --> 01:48:06,791
aren't the people that
2987
01:48:06,791 --> 01:48:08,791
spent like a thousand dollars on
2988
01:48:08,791 --> 01:48:11,208
rolling my favorite life oh I see yeah
2989
01:48:11,208 --> 01:48:12,625
like I so so like I spent
2990
01:48:12,625 --> 01:48:14,208
like 20 on the character they
2991
01:48:14,208 --> 01:48:16,625
don't regret it I mean 20 is still a
2992
01:48:16,625 --> 01:48:19,375
little bit too much for my opinion oh
2993
01:48:19,375 --> 01:48:20,375
this is like including
2994
01:48:20,375 --> 01:48:22,625
all the thousand okay yeah yeah yeah I
2995
01:48:22,625 --> 01:48:25,583
was misunderstanding yes that makes sense
2996
01:48:26,625 --> 01:48:28,166
spending money on in-game purchases 20
2997
01:48:28,166 --> 01:48:29,416
but that's still like yeah
2998
01:48:29,416 --> 01:48:31,500
okay that I wanted to see the
2999
01:48:31,541 --> 01:48:33,041
correlation on the people that actually
3000
01:48:33,041 --> 01:48:35,250
are spent like their
3001
01:48:35,250 --> 01:48:36,791
living expenses are are
3002
01:48:37,208 --> 01:48:39,000
shot now I want to see what the
3003
01:48:39,000 --> 01:48:40,750
percentage there don't worry I mean
3004
01:48:40,750 --> 01:48:43,583
there's more like the the 18
3005
01:48:43,583 --> 01:48:46,750
so it's almost 19 percent of people spent
3006
01:48:46,750 --> 01:48:48,708
more than they should have
3007
01:48:48,708 --> 01:48:51,916
yes and over 20 so a greater
3008
01:48:51,916 --> 01:48:54,250
percentage of the people who spent any
3009
01:48:54,250 --> 01:48:56,541
money are regretted yeah
3010
01:48:56,541 --> 01:48:57,916
like I probably like I probably
3011
01:48:58,000 --> 01:48:59,916
wouldn't like I wouldn't I probably
3012
01:48:59,916 --> 01:49:01,333
regret spending a hundred
3013
01:49:01,333 --> 01:49:02,250
dollars on the character
3014
01:49:03,041 --> 01:49:04,750
but at least I'm not broke that's
3015
01:49:04,750 --> 01:49:06,375
probably the sentiment that's going on
3016
01:49:06,375 --> 01:49:08,208
there yeah I'll also
3017
01:49:08,208 --> 01:49:10,875
mention a thousand for sample size is not
3018
01:49:10,875 --> 01:49:12,750
very good no yeah it's not
3019
01:49:12,750 --> 01:49:13,916
it's not a very big sample
3020
01:49:13,916 --> 01:49:15,875
in these be much much people it should be
3021
01:49:15,875 --> 01:49:18,791
much bigger but yeah
3022
01:49:18,791 --> 01:49:22,416
continue so here is the survey
3023
01:49:22,625 --> 01:49:26,791
here's some more stuff here so they ask
3024
01:49:26,791 --> 01:49:30,083
us every year yeah I'm
3025
01:49:30,083 --> 01:49:32,083
willing to pay to have an advantage
3026
01:49:32,166 --> 01:49:37,125
in-game 2024 survey all all men and women
3027
01:49:37,125 --> 01:49:42,500
12 in 2024 17.9 in 2025
3028
01:49:42,500 --> 01:49:46,375
interesting yeah so and then
3029
01:49:47,291 --> 01:49:49,416
I can't enjoy the game if I don't make
3030
01:49:49,416 --> 01:49:51,708
in-game purchases in 2024
3031
01:49:51,708 --> 01:49:54,375
all respondents said 18 percent
3032
01:49:54,416 --> 01:50:00,166
in 2024 in 2025 it was 20.8 percent so it
3033
01:50:00,166 --> 01:50:01,333
sounds like the the
3034
01:50:01,333 --> 01:50:04,208
gacha market is actually like
3035
01:50:04,333 --> 01:50:06,708
influencing people in a negative way
3036
01:50:06,708 --> 01:50:08,750
that's what it sounds like to me it
3037
01:50:08,750 --> 01:50:09,916
certainly does and I'm not
3038
01:50:09,916 --> 01:50:12,083
sure if it's because and the second the
3039
01:50:12,083 --> 01:50:12,750
second graph in particular
3040
01:50:12,750 --> 01:50:14,208
I'm not sure if that means that
3041
01:50:14,875 --> 01:50:17,375
oh the game's just not fun if I don't
3042
01:50:17,375 --> 01:50:19,000
spend because I just I'm
3043
01:50:19,000 --> 01:50:20,875
weak and you know a lot of
3044
01:50:20,875 --> 01:50:23,000
gacha games they make free characters not
3045
01:50:23,000 --> 01:50:25,333
nearly as strong as like the
3046
01:50:25,333 --> 01:50:27,750
characters you can like roll
3047
01:50:27,833 --> 01:50:31,833
or uh that tends to be the case uh but
3048
01:50:31,833 --> 01:50:32,625
I'm not sure if that's
3049
01:50:32,625 --> 01:50:34,958
what it is or if maybe like oh
3050
01:50:35,125 --> 01:50:37,916
this 60 game doesn't have any
3051
01:50:37,916 --> 01:50:41,000
microtransactions I can't enjoy Bellatro
3052
01:50:41,000 --> 01:50:42,250
without spending a dollar
3053
01:50:42,416 --> 01:50:45,125
for another hand like I don't know if
3054
01:50:45,125 --> 01:50:45,875
it's that I don't know
3055
01:50:45,875 --> 01:50:46,708
if that's the case either
3056
01:50:46,958 --> 01:50:48,958
I don't see that being the case but you
3057
01:50:48,958 --> 01:50:51,125
know someone had to say it
3058
01:50:52,458 --> 01:50:54,291
right I mean yeah there yeah I think
3059
01:50:54,291 --> 01:50:55,083
there are two ways to
3060
01:50:55,083 --> 01:50:57,000
look at it you're right um
3061
01:50:58,333 --> 01:51:00,541
it's interesting though I mean why why
3062
01:51:00,541 --> 01:51:01,541
would you even want to
3063
01:51:01,541 --> 01:51:03,166
play a game like this if if
3064
01:51:03,458 --> 01:51:05,541
there are people if you know that they're
3065
01:51:05,541 --> 01:51:06,791
fucking scamming you
3066
01:51:06,791 --> 01:51:10,125
like so maybe I'm just
3067
01:51:10,250 --> 01:51:12,208
addictive play addictive play you're
3068
01:51:12,208 --> 01:51:13,166
getting deeper and deeper
3069
01:51:13,166 --> 01:51:14,125
you're like well I want to be
3070
01:51:14,125 --> 01:51:17,125
the best uh it works like I said it works
3071
01:51:17,125 --> 01:51:19,791
like it's not like some
3072
01:51:19,791 --> 01:51:21,375
intense mental illness thing
3073
01:51:21,375 --> 01:51:23,541
it's just working I shouldn't you know
3074
01:51:23,541 --> 01:51:25,208
it's gambling it can work
3075
01:51:25,208 --> 01:51:26,625
off similar things to gambling
3076
01:51:27,125 --> 01:51:30,208
um yeah so I think that you're gonna win
3077
01:51:30,208 --> 01:51:32,291
so I will confess I do
3078
01:51:32,291 --> 01:51:34,083
sometimes imbibe in the gacha games
3079
01:51:34,166 --> 01:51:37,125
I don't pay for them because yeah I just
3080
01:51:37,125 --> 01:51:39,125
know better and also I
3081
01:51:39,125 --> 01:51:40,791
have impeccable gacha luck
3082
01:51:44,333 --> 01:51:45,625
that's what they all say and then they're
3083
01:51:45,625 --> 01:51:47,500
paying I'm not paying
3084
01:51:47,500 --> 01:51:48,583
I'm free to play baby
3085
01:51:49,458 --> 01:51:51,666
but uh let's see what let's but what's
3086
01:51:51,666 --> 01:51:52,666
this last one here I should
3087
01:51:52,666 --> 01:51:54,166
see what this is let's see
3088
01:51:54,875 --> 01:51:56,500
it's the uh amount of
3089
01:51:56,500 --> 01:51:58,208
money spent it looks like see
3090
01:51:59,291 --> 01:52:01,000
I've spent
3091
01:52:15,166 --> 01:52:17,708
Yeah, from last year because it's down
3092
01:52:17,708 --> 01:52:19,291
like almost a thousand yen
3093
01:52:19,750 --> 01:52:22,041
Spent I think part of that has to do with
3094
01:52:22,041 --> 01:52:23,083
the fact that the yen is so
3095
01:52:23,083 --> 01:52:24,750
weak nowadays to be honest
3096
01:52:25,125 --> 01:52:28,458
Hmm. Yeah, I mean is that is that a lot
3097
01:52:28,458 --> 01:52:31,125
that doesn't as far as I know that's not
3098
01:52:31,125 --> 01:52:34,708
Like it's like ten bucks like
3099
01:52:35,750 --> 01:52:37,166
Probably five or six dollars now
3100
01:52:38,250 --> 01:52:40,375
Is that like average purchase price or is
3101
01:52:40,375 --> 01:52:43,125
that like over a time span or I mean, I
3102
01:52:43,125 --> 01:52:45,875
mean it looks like it's
3103
01:52:46,208 --> 01:52:47,125
Average per month
3104
01:52:49,458 --> 01:52:49,958
Okay
3105
01:52:50,583 --> 01:52:52,666
So, I mean, you know if you're spending
3106
01:52:52,666 --> 01:52:54,416
ten dollars a month, that's not like
3107
01:52:54,416 --> 01:52:55,458
gonna impact your
3108
01:52:55,458 --> 01:52:57,875
finances too bad, right? Yeah
3109
01:52:58,375 --> 01:53:00,208
But of course you have famous stories
3110
01:53:00,208 --> 01:53:01,916
like how someone spent like forty
3111
01:53:01,916 --> 01:53:03,583
thousand dollars a year on
3112
01:53:04,458 --> 01:53:06,083
Maybe in order. Let me pull
3113
01:53:06,083 --> 01:53:07,041
up. Let me pull up that story
3114
01:53:07,041 --> 01:53:14,916
I mean, you know high tech you do have
3115
01:53:14,916 --> 01:53:17,291
pretty good luck though. I mean you've
3116
01:53:17,291 --> 01:53:18,291
told us stories about
3117
01:53:18,291 --> 01:53:20,916
how good luck you have
3118
01:53:22,125 --> 01:53:23,083
Born lucky
3119
01:53:24,541 --> 01:53:26,625
Speaking of which I only play one gotcha
3120
01:53:26,625 --> 01:53:28,416
game nowadays and that's uh, I think
3121
01:53:28,416 --> 01:53:29,291
you've I think you've
3122
01:53:29,291 --> 01:53:30,250
guys see me talk about it
3123
01:53:30,291 --> 01:53:32,458
I mean, I mean, I mean I've seen my videos and some of the people that have
3124
01:53:32,458 --> 01:53:34,416
seen my videos talk you talk about it
3125
01:53:34,416 --> 01:53:37,000
It's a blue archive. I'm max level in it
3126
01:53:37,000 --> 01:53:39,250
And I have some of the best units in the
3127
01:53:39,250 --> 01:53:41,500
game because I just have impeccable luck
3128
01:53:41,500 --> 01:53:47,416
See me but I
3129
01:53:47,416 --> 01:53:50,375
Mean be careful I might I
3130
01:53:50,375 --> 01:53:51,583
Need I want some of
3131
01:53:51,583 --> 01:53:53,125
that luck. It's not fair
3132
01:53:53,125 --> 01:53:56,875
Hey, man, it's not my fault
3133
01:53:58,708 --> 01:54:00,916
I can just get things I want for free
3134
01:54:03,416 --> 01:54:06,166
You know, what's funny I actually have
3135
01:54:06,166 --> 01:54:07,333
pretty good luck too
3136
01:54:08,125 --> 01:54:11,958
But like I have like this hyper. I don't
3137
01:54:11,958 --> 01:54:12,375
know like almost
3138
01:54:12,375 --> 01:54:15,208
supernatural sense about luck
3139
01:54:16,375 --> 01:54:19,625
I you guys want to buckle in for a long
3140
01:54:19,625 --> 01:54:21,833
story or should we not I mean down
3141
01:54:22,666 --> 01:54:25,250
So it's actually not that long but I went
3142
01:54:25,250 --> 01:54:28,458
to this like Christmas party with my
3143
01:54:28,458 --> 01:54:29,458
girlfriend at the time
3144
01:54:29,458 --> 01:54:32,583
at her work and she worked at this like
3145
01:54:32,583 --> 01:54:34,041
elementary school and
3146
01:54:34,041 --> 01:54:36,000
Like all down the main hall of the
3147
01:54:36,000 --> 01:54:37,625
elementary school there were tables set
3148
01:54:37,625 --> 01:54:38,500
up with door prizes
3149
01:54:38,500 --> 01:54:40,500
and it was ten dollars
3150
01:54:40,750 --> 01:54:43,750
For each ticket to enter a door prize and
3151
01:54:43,750 --> 01:54:44,875
they'd give you a ticket and you could
3152
01:54:44,875 --> 01:54:46,291
walk down the thing and put it
3153
01:54:46,291 --> 01:54:48,791
In any bowl on any table and
3154
01:54:48,791 --> 01:54:50,083
then they draw a door prize
3155
01:54:51,000 --> 01:54:53,208
From the bowl on each table, you'd win
3156
01:54:53,208 --> 01:54:55,375
that prize. So I ended up
3157
01:54:55,458 --> 01:54:57,291
Like telling my girlfriend I was like we
3158
01:54:57,291 --> 01:54:58,875
need to buy two tickets and
3159
01:54:58,875 --> 01:55:00,875
that's it and she's like no
3160
01:55:00,875 --> 01:55:02,083
I'm gonna get like four or five. I'm
3161
01:55:02,083 --> 01:55:04,583
like, no, we only need two. Oh
3162
01:55:04,583 --> 01:55:07,541
Dude I'm telling you and
3163
01:55:07,541 --> 01:55:09,166
so we bought two tickets
3164
01:55:09,458 --> 01:55:11,750
One was for me one was for her. We walked
3165
01:55:11,750 --> 01:55:13,291
down the thing and I was
3166
01:55:13,291 --> 01:55:15,250
like this tablet right here
3167
01:55:16,000 --> 01:55:18,041
And I don't have it right here, but I
3168
01:55:18,041 --> 01:55:18,916
have a tablet that I
3169
01:55:18,916 --> 01:55:20,500
won from this door prize
3170
01:55:20,583 --> 01:55:22,833
Okay, I was like I'm gonna win this
3171
01:55:22,833 --> 01:55:24,083
tablet and she's like no
3172
01:55:24,083 --> 01:55:32,416
And then we walked around and I had a
3173
01:55:32,416 --> 01:55:33,791
feeling that there was like this
3174
01:55:36,750 --> 01:55:37,791
Basket with
3175
01:55:39,083 --> 01:55:40,625
It was like an Easter basket,
3176
01:55:40,625 --> 01:55:42,583
but it had like dolphins like
3177
01:55:43,583 --> 01:55:45,250
Memorabilia in it like the football team
3178
01:55:45,250 --> 01:55:47,791
and I was like put your ticket in here.
3179
01:55:47,791 --> 01:55:48,583
You're gonna win this
3180
01:55:48,583 --> 01:55:50,250
She's like, I don't want that. I'm like,
3181
01:55:50,250 --> 01:55:52,500
I don't care. It's Christmas time. You
3182
01:55:52,500 --> 01:55:53,708
can give it to your dad or something
3183
01:55:53,708 --> 01:55:55,791
You're gonna win this she didn't do it
3184
01:55:55,791 --> 01:55:57,416
and then she didn't see
3185
01:55:57,416 --> 01:55:58,375
anything else that she wanted
3186
01:55:58,375 --> 01:55:59,916
So she just threw it in there as a lark,
3187
01:55:59,916 --> 01:56:02,750
right and she's like you're full of shit.
3188
01:56:02,750 --> 01:56:03,541
You're not we're not
3189
01:56:03,541 --> 01:56:04,541
gonna win either of these
3190
01:56:05,375 --> 01:56:07,708
Dude, I'm telling you we drove three
3191
01:56:07,708 --> 01:56:09,208
hours down to see our friends
3192
01:56:09,375 --> 01:56:12,291
and then she got a phone call and she had
3193
01:56:12,291 --> 01:56:15,000
won the the dolphins basket and
3194
01:56:15,000 --> 01:56:17,333
Then like the next day I was like shocked
3195
01:56:17,333 --> 01:56:19,166
that they didn't also say that I won the
3196
01:56:19,166 --> 01:56:21,708
thing and then the next day
3197
01:56:21,708 --> 01:56:23,250
They called and they were like, oh by the
3198
01:56:23,250 --> 01:56:24,500
way Gardner won that too
3199
01:56:25,000 --> 01:56:28,500
So dude, how wild is that? I can I do
3200
01:56:28,500 --> 01:56:30,125
that all the time to like when
3201
01:56:30,125 --> 01:56:31,208
I know I'm gonna win something
3202
01:56:31,333 --> 01:56:32,916
Yeah, you know, you should be Gardner
3203
01:56:33,958 --> 01:56:35,125
You should look at a little experiment
3204
01:56:35,125 --> 01:56:38,041
where you try pulling you pick a gacha a
3205
01:56:38,041 --> 01:56:39,458
random gacha game of your choice
3206
01:56:39,750 --> 01:56:41,875
And then you just keep playing you play
3207
01:56:41,875 --> 01:56:43,625
it for like a month or so
3208
01:56:43,625 --> 01:56:45,750
and you see how lucky you are
3209
01:56:47,083 --> 01:56:48,625
Yeah, well the weird thing is it doesn't
3210
01:56:48,625 --> 01:56:50,541
work with gambling like it only works
3211
01:56:50,541 --> 01:56:53,041
with like door prizes and like
3212
01:56:53,333 --> 01:56:55,416
Like those, you know jelly bean like
3213
01:56:55,416 --> 01:56:56,458
raffles and stuff like
3214
01:56:56,458 --> 01:56:57,541
that's where it works
3215
01:56:57,541 --> 01:57:00,125
It never works when I'm like it never
3216
01:57:00,125 --> 01:57:01,750
works when I have a feeling I'm like, I
3217
01:57:01,750 --> 01:57:03,250
should get like a mega bucks
3218
01:57:03,291 --> 01:57:05,541
or powerball or whatever
3219
01:57:06,000 --> 01:57:07,916
Dude. Yeah, if you did do that, you
3220
01:57:07,916 --> 01:57:09,291
probably wouldn't be on the internet
3221
01:57:09,291 --> 01:57:10,916
anymore. I certainly wouldn't dude
3222
01:57:10,916 --> 01:57:13,250
If I had if I had like a powerball
3223
01:57:13,625 --> 01:57:15,958
Winnings, I would like retire like I
3224
01:57:15,958 --> 01:57:18,166
wouldn't do I wouldn't do anything
3225
01:57:18,166 --> 01:57:20,208
games all day
3226
01:57:21,083 --> 01:57:22,791
Yeah, no, I mean I probably you know,
3227
01:57:22,791 --> 01:57:24,666
honestly I say that but I would not be
3228
01:57:24,666 --> 01:57:25,833
able to not work like
3229
01:57:25,833 --> 01:57:27,791
I have to be working
3230
01:57:27,791 --> 01:57:29,958
I'm like a sheepdog. Yeah, but like you
3231
01:57:29,958 --> 01:57:30,875
could you do like your
3232
01:57:30,875 --> 01:57:32,541
super big passion project
3233
01:57:33,666 --> 01:57:35,000
You do. Yes. Oh, yeah,
3234
01:57:35,000 --> 01:57:36,666
dude if I had tons of money
3235
01:57:36,666 --> 01:57:38,458
I would go around and make documentaries
3236
01:57:38,458 --> 01:57:40,208
about Linux like I'd go around and like
3237
01:57:40,208 --> 01:57:41,666
meet luminaries and like
3238
01:57:41,666 --> 01:57:42,708
interview them and do cool
3239
01:57:42,708 --> 01:57:43,750
Shit like that. That's
3240
01:57:43,750 --> 01:57:45,958
what I do Linux Torvalds
3241
01:57:46,541 --> 01:57:48,791
Yeah, I it would be an honor to meet
3242
01:57:48,791 --> 01:57:50,458
Linux Torvalds in person
3243
01:57:51,458 --> 01:57:53,291
You could meet Linus
3244
01:57:55,166 --> 01:57:58,833
Linus it just sounds similar Linus
3245
01:57:59,833 --> 01:58:01,791
Linus I think it wasn't
3246
01:58:01,791 --> 01:58:02,083
that
3247
01:58:02,083 --> 01:58:06,166
He I remember watching an
3248
01:58:06,166 --> 01:58:07,458
interview with him and he said
3249
01:58:08,416 --> 01:58:12,583
that in English his name is Linus in and
3250
01:58:12,916 --> 01:58:15,750
Finish his name is Linus and that's where
3251
01:58:15,750 --> 01:58:18,375
the name comes from. Yeah
3252
01:58:19,708 --> 01:58:21,833
Linus we also beat Linus tech tips
3253
01:58:22,958 --> 01:58:25,541
Yeah, that'd be cool. No, you're very
3254
01:58:25,541 --> 01:58:26,500
cool. That would be cool
3255
01:58:26,541 --> 01:58:28,583
All right, we should
3256
01:58:28,583 --> 01:58:29,750
move on we've digressed
3257
01:58:31,333 --> 01:58:34,083
Next up maple story classic world. I
3258
01:58:34,083 --> 01:58:35,416
don't know anything about maple story.
3259
01:58:35,416 --> 01:58:36,875
What is it? What is this an MMO?
3260
01:58:37,166 --> 01:58:39,916
Do you know what Wow is? Oh
3261
01:58:39,916 --> 01:58:41,375
Yeah, I know. I know. You know how Wow
3262
01:58:41,375 --> 01:58:43,583
released a classic Wow version
3263
01:58:46,208 --> 01:58:48,166
It's like that but maple story
3264
01:58:49,875 --> 01:58:52,333
Gotcha so maple story is an
3265
01:58:52,333 --> 01:58:54,333
old-ass game like really old
3266
01:58:55,375 --> 01:58:57,750
Yeah, the name like rings a bell from
3267
01:58:57,750 --> 01:59:00,916
like when I was in high school like 2005
3268
01:59:00,958 --> 01:59:03,041
Oh, this looks super
3269
01:59:03,041 --> 01:59:04,375
familiar actually. Yeah
3270
01:59:05,875 --> 01:59:06,791
It's it's that's
3271
01:59:06,791 --> 01:59:08,291
basically classic maple story
3272
01:59:09,208 --> 01:59:11,833
Yeah, it's like a to the platformer MMO
3273
01:59:11,833 --> 01:59:15,000
game and let's just say it's super grindy
3274
01:59:15,791 --> 01:59:16,708
Because that's what
3275
01:59:16,708 --> 01:59:18,458
Korean MMOs are back in the day
3276
01:59:19,333 --> 01:59:19,666
Mmm
3277
01:59:20,875 --> 01:59:22,166
But I mean, I don't know to
3278
01:59:22,166 --> 01:59:23,958
make I mean, it's pretty cool
3279
01:59:23,958 --> 01:59:25,958
I just find it interesting that MMOs are
3280
01:59:25,958 --> 01:59:28,125
resorting to go back resorting to going
3281
01:59:28,125 --> 01:59:31,500
back to like the classic era of MMOs
3282
01:59:31,750 --> 01:59:32,708
How fortnight even did
3283
01:59:32,708 --> 01:59:33,541
this to at one point?
3284
01:59:34,958 --> 01:59:35,208
Yeah
3285
01:59:35,833 --> 01:59:38,041
Well, I mean World of Warcraft classic
3286
01:59:38,041 --> 01:59:39,000
was such a cool idea
3287
01:59:39,000 --> 01:59:40,666
like I went and played it a little bit I
3288
01:59:40,666 --> 01:59:42,000
wish I had more time to play more of it
3289
01:59:42,000 --> 01:59:43,833
because it brings me back to
3290
01:59:43,833 --> 01:59:44,166
the
3291
01:59:44,583 --> 01:59:45,291
before they
3292
01:59:46,791 --> 01:59:48,416
Not that I'm against what it is now
3293
01:59:48,416 --> 01:59:49,750
I just haven't I just don't have the time
3294
01:59:49,750 --> 01:59:50,750
to play it and or what
3295
01:59:50,750 --> 01:59:51,750
to see what it is now
3296
01:59:51,750 --> 01:59:54,583
But it is funny and then this knowledge
3297
01:59:54,583 --> 01:59:55,958
nostalgia trip to go back
3298
01:59:55,958 --> 01:59:56,708
and play World of Warcraft
3299
01:59:56,708 --> 01:59:58,458
Wait, wait garden and go back like go
3300
01:59:58,458 --> 02:00:00,875
back like to era like go back like like
3301
02:00:00,875 --> 02:00:02,500
10 seconds. I'm more
3302
02:00:03,416 --> 02:00:06,833
On the cause air father. Oh
3303
02:00:06,833 --> 02:00:07,750
No, you have to pause at that chat
3304
02:00:07,750 --> 02:00:08,875
window. Hold on. Give
3305
02:00:08,875 --> 02:00:09,875
it a sec. It's really
3306
02:00:17,500 --> 02:00:19,875
Oh my god, this is what is
3307
02:00:19,875 --> 02:00:22,458
for did wait, is that what LF?
3308
02:00:23,333 --> 02:00:25,083
Arrow bracket. Yeah looking for
3309
02:00:25,583 --> 02:00:27,875
Looking for and then it's whatever need
3310
02:00:27,875 --> 02:00:29,375
you could like you could like look for
3311
02:00:29,375 --> 02:00:31,166
items or in this case. He's
3312
02:00:31,166 --> 02:00:33,708
looking for a girlfriend or
3313
02:00:34,583 --> 02:00:35,958
Husband so long since I played me. I'm
3314
02:00:35,958 --> 02:00:36,750
sorry. I don't remember if
3315
02:00:36,750 --> 02:00:38,375
GF stands for anything else
3316
02:00:39,833 --> 02:00:41,333
Probably girlfriend probably girlfriend
3317
02:00:42,583 --> 02:00:44,791
Probably I think it's better. That's what
3318
02:00:44,791 --> 02:00:47,375
it is. I've seen runescape and people's
3319
02:00:47,375 --> 02:00:48,750
I've seen images of people on runescape
3320
02:00:48,750 --> 02:00:49,708
looking for girlfriends
3321
02:00:49,791 --> 02:00:51,250
on runescape
3322
02:00:53,500 --> 02:00:54,833
That makes me sad
3323
02:00:56,708 --> 02:01:00,833
Do it's a common MMO trope dude, it's
3324
02:01:00,833 --> 02:01:03,958
just it's the classic but yeah
3325
02:01:04,500 --> 02:01:05,416
Mmos are
3326
02:01:07,875 --> 02:01:09,041
Interesting could be a role-playing
3327
02:01:09,041 --> 02:01:11,083
server like, you know, yeah
3328
02:01:11,083 --> 02:01:15,000
People get married so also why do why are
3329
02:01:15,000 --> 02:01:16,333
all of them named CW
3330
02:01:16,333 --> 02:01:20,333
player number? I'm pretty sure I
3331
02:01:20,333 --> 02:01:21,583
Don't know. Maybe it's like some sort of
3332
02:01:21,583 --> 02:01:22,333
beta. I don't know
3333
02:01:22,333 --> 02:01:23,625
some sort of beta tester
3334
02:01:23,625 --> 02:01:24,625
Maybe they're just saying I
3335
02:01:24,625 --> 02:01:26,083
love Gia for the fun of it
3336
02:01:26,458 --> 02:01:30,500
CW player 20 is classic world, right? Cuz
3337
02:01:30,500 --> 02:01:31,458
this is classic world.
3338
02:01:31,458 --> 02:01:32,500
So this is like, yeah
3339
02:01:32,500 --> 02:01:36,666
Yeah, so this is a lark probably like
3340
02:01:36,666 --> 02:01:37,958
they're making a joke it
3341
02:01:37,958 --> 02:01:39,666
probably is it's a layer
3342
02:01:39,666 --> 02:01:41,791
It's still a layer because you would you
3343
02:01:41,791 --> 02:01:43,291
definitely unironically see that
3344
02:01:44,125 --> 02:01:46,500
Yeah, but uh speed we get the weight
3345
02:01:46,500 --> 02:01:47,875
speaking of which a classic Wow is
3346
02:01:47,875 --> 02:01:49,541
introducing expansions. Does that not
3347
02:01:49,541 --> 02:01:50,708
defeat the purpose of classic?
3348
02:01:50,750 --> 02:01:51,000
Wow
3349
02:01:51,583 --> 02:01:53,291
What happens when classic Wow reaches
3350
02:01:53,291 --> 02:01:55,333
like what Wow is right now?
3351
02:01:56,166 --> 02:01:57,583
Do they just they reset again just make
3352
02:01:57,583 --> 02:01:58,833
classic classic Wow? I
3353
02:02:00,416 --> 02:02:03,250
Don't understand why they don't like have
3354
02:02:03,250 --> 02:02:04,208
different servers you
3355
02:02:04,208 --> 02:02:05,666
can play on with whatever
3356
02:02:05,666 --> 02:02:08,750
Expansions you want I agree with that
3357
02:02:09,500 --> 02:02:11,458
Probably because they want everyone to be
3358
02:02:11,458 --> 02:02:13,166
in parody and they want people to keep
3359
02:02:13,166 --> 02:02:14,666
paying or some shit like that
3360
02:02:15,291 --> 02:02:16,041
It could be that too
3361
02:02:16,041 --> 02:02:17,541
Like maybe there's not enough people if
3362
02:02:17,541 --> 02:02:19,666
you have classic to play and so they make
3363
02:02:19,666 --> 02:02:21,666
it a big ordeal and you jump on and do it
3364
02:02:21,666 --> 02:02:23,916
And then what what happens is that then
3365
02:02:23,916 --> 02:02:25,083
they add on like I think every year to they add on a new expansion
3366
02:02:25,125 --> 02:02:29,333
But yeah, I think yeah
3367
02:02:29,333 --> 02:02:30,833
Hmm
3368
02:02:32,250 --> 02:02:32,416
Weird
3369
02:02:33,666 --> 02:02:34,958
But yeah, that's one
3370
02:02:34,958 --> 02:02:36,208
thing that's one of the videos
3371
02:02:36,208 --> 02:02:38,041
I linked in this topic because I just
3372
02:02:38,041 --> 02:02:39,500
want to talk about random gaming trends.
3373
02:02:39,500 --> 02:02:40,458
I noticed another
3374
02:02:40,458 --> 02:02:41,916
there's another video, too
3375
02:02:41,916 --> 02:02:42,708
and this one
3376
02:02:44,000 --> 02:02:47,208
It's a Diablo crossover with berserk
3377
02:02:48,458 --> 02:02:50,666
Have you guys read the manga for berserk?
3378
02:02:50,666 --> 02:02:54,041
No, not much, but I've seen the
3379
02:02:54,708 --> 02:02:57,000
Anime for the most part. Yeah
3380
02:02:57,791 --> 02:03:01,208
The ant then the like newer 2000s anime
3381
02:03:01,208 --> 02:03:02,375
is really rough because it's
3382
02:03:02,375 --> 02:03:04,083
all CG and it's terrible CG
3383
02:03:04,083 --> 02:03:06,291
The 90s anime is really good though
3384
02:03:07,291 --> 02:03:09,333
So like seminal like dark fantasy
3385
02:03:11,125 --> 02:03:13,250
They they say Dark Souls is heavily
3386
02:03:13,250 --> 02:03:15,041
inspired by berserk. Let's just say
3387
02:03:16,541 --> 02:03:18,875
Really? Yeah, this makes sense. This
3388
02:03:18,875 --> 02:03:19,625
makes sense for a
3389
02:03:19,625 --> 02:03:21,416
crossover. I'll be like I really
3390
02:03:21,875 --> 02:03:24,916
It does make it does make sense. But at
3391
02:03:24,916 --> 02:03:26,375
the same time though, a lot of people are
3392
02:03:26,375 --> 02:03:27,458
starting to get kind of
3393
02:03:28,250 --> 02:03:31,916
Tired of it. So he looks like Kratos. So
3394
02:03:31,916 --> 02:03:33,541
that's in this so that's a Diablo
3395
02:03:33,541 --> 02:03:35,333
character. That's not guts
3396
02:03:35,625 --> 02:03:36,125
Gus
3397
02:03:36,916 --> 02:03:38,458
Pull of it. You can look and pull up a
3398
02:03:38,458 --> 02:03:39,708
picture of guts right now. He doesn't
3399
02:03:39,708 --> 02:03:40,500
look anything like that
3400
02:03:41,000 --> 02:03:41,625
For instance, he's
3401
02:03:41,625 --> 02:03:43,666
not bald or has a beard
3402
02:03:44,541 --> 02:03:47,166
Guts guts from berserk. That's his name
3403
02:03:48,125 --> 02:03:51,250
He wields the dragon slayer sword and
3404
02:03:51,250 --> 02:03:53,291
it's a giant piece of it's still yeah,
3405
02:03:53,291 --> 02:03:54,833
it's a giant sword that
3406
02:03:56,291 --> 02:03:59,750
Yeah. Yeah, that's guts right there
3407
02:04:01,083 --> 02:04:03,708
Hmm so he has a mechanical arm because in
3408
02:04:03,708 --> 02:04:05,375
the golden age he had to cut his arm off
3409
02:04:05,375 --> 02:04:07,708
to try to save casca because of
3410
02:04:08,416 --> 02:04:10,500
Some terrible. It's not appropriate for
3411
02:04:10,500 --> 02:04:12,250
kids. We'll just say berserk
3412
02:04:13,208 --> 02:04:14,833
And it's not just and it's
3413
02:04:14,833 --> 02:04:15,916
not just a blood and gore
3414
02:04:17,625 --> 02:04:20,833
Hmm there's every
3415
02:04:20,833 --> 02:04:22,291
suggestive theme I feel like in that
3416
02:04:24,333 --> 02:04:25,208
It's not played for
3417
02:04:26,208 --> 02:04:29,875
What a modern anime is it's dramatic and
3418
02:04:29,875 --> 02:04:32,250
it's terrible and it's treated such to
3419
02:04:34,333 --> 02:04:36,625
But it's a really good series if you're
3420
02:04:36,625 --> 02:04:37,750
interested like dark fantasy
3421
02:04:39,041 --> 02:04:42,083
The original author died like last year I
3422
02:04:42,083 --> 02:04:43,916
believe for two years ago. Mm-hmm
3423
02:04:44,500 --> 02:04:46,416
And so they're still carrying it on I
3424
02:04:46,416 --> 02:04:47,000
haven't read it since
3425
02:04:47,000 --> 02:04:51,125
then to be honest, but I
3426
02:04:51,125 --> 02:04:52,458
Didn't mean to dive into it one these
3427
02:04:52,458 --> 02:04:53,916
days. It's just haven't I just haven't
3428
02:04:53,916 --> 02:04:55,541
yet. I've had too much other stuff
3429
02:04:57,875 --> 02:04:58,500
Yeah
3430
02:04:59,333 --> 02:05:01,541
It's good stuff now, but
3431
02:05:01,541 --> 02:05:04,458
unexpected crossovers I
3432
02:05:04,458 --> 02:05:06,041
For with fortnight gets it kind of makes
3433
02:05:06,041 --> 02:05:07,000
sense because like
3434
02:05:07,000 --> 02:05:08,416
fortnight is just fortnight
3435
02:05:09,333 --> 02:05:10,916
But like how do you feel
3436
02:05:10,916 --> 02:05:12,083
about called duty having?
3437
02:05:13,125 --> 02:05:16,625
Anime girl guns and
3438
02:05:16,625 --> 02:05:18,458
like squid games crossovers
3439
02:05:20,000 --> 02:05:22,041
Like I think people don't like that.
3440
02:05:22,041 --> 02:05:24,791
Yeah, that doesn't make sense. Honestly,
3441
02:05:24,791 --> 02:05:27,833
that seems like a Bobby Kotak decision
3442
02:05:29,625 --> 02:05:33,333
Yeah, I'll release a Bobby Kotak style of
3443
02:05:33,333 --> 02:05:36,041
decision because I mean, yeah, right
3444
02:05:36,708 --> 02:05:38,083
What I mean because
3445
02:05:38,083 --> 02:05:39,583
there's nothing there's no way
3446
02:05:40,125 --> 02:05:42,500
There's like no real correlation between
3447
02:05:42,500 --> 02:05:44,250
squid games and also
3448
02:05:44,541 --> 02:05:47,000
Call of Duty supplies despite, you know
3449
02:05:47,333 --> 02:05:48,416
Except for the fact that you know, some
3450
02:05:48,416 --> 02:05:50,500
of the guards and squid games uses guns
3451
02:05:50,500 --> 02:05:52,375
to kill people. That's like the only
3452
02:05:52,916 --> 02:05:54,291
real connection I think
3453
02:05:55,583 --> 02:05:59,416
Yeah, I mean the only connection that I
3454
02:05:59,416 --> 02:06:00,875
can think of is Microsoft's gonna buy
3455
02:06:00,875 --> 02:06:02,750
Netflix pretty soon. That's a joke
3456
02:06:03,333 --> 02:06:04,291
That's a joke
3457
02:06:04,666 --> 02:06:06,250
I haven't heard any rumors
3458
02:06:06,791 --> 02:06:09,416
Don't put that out there. Don't say that
3459
02:06:09,416 --> 02:06:11,208
shit. Don't say that shit man. You're
3460
02:06:11,208 --> 02:06:12,333
gonna be like the modern day Cassandra.
3461
02:06:13,041 --> 02:06:15,041
It's a Cassandra. Yeah
3462
02:06:17,333 --> 02:06:19,250
No, I just Microsoft buys everything
3463
02:06:19,250 --> 02:06:21,416
they're evil they are evil to a degree
3464
02:06:21,416 --> 02:06:22,666
they're all the company
3465
02:06:22,666 --> 02:06:24,125
everyone's evil to some degree
3466
02:06:24,125 --> 02:06:26,000
Oh, yeah, they're all they're all bad
3467
02:06:26,833 --> 02:06:29,458
Before we before we wrap this episode up.
3468
02:06:29,458 --> 02:06:30,916
I want I think we
3469
02:06:30,916 --> 02:06:32,041
should take a moment and
3470
02:06:33,708 --> 02:06:33,916
and
3471
02:06:33,916 --> 02:06:35,500
And recognize the the
3472
02:06:35,500 --> 02:06:37,708
people who have left comments on
3473
02:06:38,041 --> 02:06:40,416
the on the last episode
3474
02:06:41,333 --> 02:06:43,166
This is something we've been promising we
3475
02:06:43,166 --> 02:06:44,500
would do for a few months
3476
02:06:45,333 --> 02:06:47,708
And finally there have been comments that
3477
02:06:47,708 --> 02:06:49,416
we can respond to on the air
3478
02:06:49,416 --> 02:06:55,500
This is this is pretty cool we had bill
3479
02:06:55,500 --> 02:06:57,916
on the last episode from nerd nest and
3480
02:06:57,916 --> 02:07:00,625
he's just an awesome guest to have and
3481
02:07:01,375 --> 02:07:03,208
A bunch of people were commenting
3482
02:07:03,708 --> 02:07:06,125
Nerd nest and off the console are two of
3483
02:07:06,125 --> 02:07:07,333
my most watched podcasts
3484
02:07:07,333 --> 02:07:09,041
and are part of the reason
3485
02:07:09,333 --> 02:07:11,000
That I have moved to Steam
3486
02:07:11,000 --> 02:07:13,583
Deck and PC gaming and us
3487
02:07:14,125 --> 02:07:15,333
How many a hearted that
3488
02:07:15,333 --> 02:07:16,750
because it made me happy?
3489
02:07:17,625 --> 02:07:21,541
And then it is surreal that to see my two
3490
02:07:21,541 --> 02:07:23,000
favorite podcasts are coming together
3491
02:07:23,666 --> 02:07:25,125
That's pretty awesome. So
3492
02:07:25,125 --> 02:07:26,708
it's really cool. Hell. Yeah
3493
02:07:27,583 --> 02:07:29,083
And
3494
02:07:29,083 --> 02:07:30,541
Then phaser shifter
3495
02:07:31,333 --> 02:07:34,083
3120 says I'm running bas light with an
3496
02:07:34,083 --> 02:07:37,166
RTX 3080 had it running fine for months
3497
02:07:37,166 --> 02:07:38,583
without issues switched to Windows
3498
02:07:38,583 --> 02:07:40,458
But could not stand it and finally
3499
02:07:40,458 --> 02:07:42,625
switched back to bad light had a few
3500
02:07:42,625 --> 02:07:44,458
issues now. Oh now it's fine
3501
02:07:45,791 --> 02:07:48,291
That's interesting. Awesome. Hey, if it's
3502
02:07:48,291 --> 02:07:50,833
working great go for it. Yeah, like bas
3503
02:07:50,833 --> 02:07:52,458
light was great. I liked it
3504
02:07:52,458 --> 02:07:54,625
I just yeah, it was crashing too much.
3505
02:07:54,625 --> 02:07:55,291
And so I'm gonna go
3506
02:07:55,291 --> 02:07:56,083
back to it a little later
3507
02:07:57,625 --> 02:08:00,458
Yeah, a 3080 is like kind of like the the
3508
02:08:00,458 --> 02:08:02,791
30 series is kind of the bare minimum for
3509
02:08:02,916 --> 02:08:05,250
Using Linux with the Nvidia card like the
3510
02:08:05,250 --> 02:08:07,291
20 series and the 10 like
3511
02:08:08,208 --> 02:08:09,583
We're not that great
3512
02:08:10,583 --> 02:08:13,125
So it's good. It's good that you are
3513
02:08:13,125 --> 02:08:15,416
having fewer issues. It sounds like with
3514
02:08:15,416 --> 02:08:16,750
Linux than with Windows
3515
02:08:18,458 --> 02:08:21,333
Yeah, yeah, I mean Windows I was having
3516
02:08:21,333 --> 02:08:22,625
issues with the windows and I had a
3517
02:08:22,625 --> 02:08:24,625
completely wipe my my
3518
02:08:24,625 --> 02:08:25,875
drive and reinstall up from
3519
02:08:25,916 --> 02:08:26,791
like a clean
3520
02:08:28,250 --> 02:08:31,083
Bootable drive like it that was the only
3521
02:08:31,083 --> 02:08:35,333
way I got it to kind of be fixed and I
3522
02:08:35,333 --> 02:08:37,125
Want to I can't wait till the day that I
3523
02:08:37,125 --> 02:08:38,125
just switch over fully
3524
02:08:39,041 --> 02:08:41,291
Mm-hmm
3525
02:08:41,291 --> 02:08:43,083
Yep, hopefully we'll
3526
02:08:43,083 --> 02:08:44,333
do it soon. Hopefully
3527
02:08:45,458 --> 02:08:47,958
Hopefully what happens in but who knows?
3528
02:08:47,958 --> 02:08:49,708
Oh, hey, look you're getting what you're
3529
02:08:49,708 --> 02:08:50,750
getting the lot show view
3530
02:08:50,750 --> 02:08:51,416
you're getting the lot
3531
02:08:51,416 --> 02:08:52,708
show videos again because
3532
02:08:53,333 --> 02:08:56,625
I guess you must have decided blush of
3533
02:08:56,625 --> 02:09:00,000
these aren't actually 18 plus anymore. Oh
3534
02:09:00,000 --> 02:09:00,208
Yeah
3535
02:09:00,958 --> 02:09:02,750
And this is like a brand account where
3536
02:09:02,750 --> 02:09:05,166
I'm logged in as off the off the console
3537
02:09:05,166 --> 02:09:07,791
right now. So oh very nice
3538
02:09:09,000 --> 02:09:10,041
Must be because we talk
3539
02:09:10,041 --> 02:09:11,375
about a lot show all the time
3540
02:09:12,958 --> 02:09:14,625
Probably do you guys do either of you
3541
02:09:14,625 --> 02:09:17,416
watch like content on this profile cuz I
3542
02:09:17,416 --> 02:09:19,958
don't I I I try not to I
3543
02:09:21,000 --> 02:09:24,625
Probably did once on accident and it was
3544
02:09:24,625 --> 02:09:25,750
probably like it was
3545
02:09:25,750 --> 02:09:26,916
probably Linus or something
3546
02:09:26,916 --> 02:09:28,750
It was so it was real
3547
02:09:28,750 --> 02:09:30,041
relative to what we do
3548
02:09:30,875 --> 02:09:32,750
Yeah, I don't try to do it. I mean, I
3549
02:09:32,750 --> 02:09:34,750
think it happened. I don't either I
3550
02:09:36,125 --> 02:09:38,333
Have a I have my workspaces
3551
02:09:38,833 --> 02:09:40,375
segmented out and I think I was
3552
02:09:41,083 --> 02:09:42,166
working on the
3553
02:09:43,250 --> 02:09:45,083
Editing the video and then I was I think
3554
02:09:45,083 --> 02:09:46,625
I wanted to watch something or I was
3555
02:09:46,625 --> 02:09:47,291
maybe pulling up some
3556
02:09:47,291 --> 02:09:48,125
videos for it or something
3557
02:09:48,208 --> 02:09:50,500
Like that night. Mm-hmm, but not much
3558
02:09:52,458 --> 02:09:54,916
Yeah, oh
3559
02:09:55,541 --> 02:09:58,208
Cool well, is there anything else? I
3560
02:09:58,208 --> 02:09:58,958
think that's that's
3561
02:09:58,958 --> 02:10:00,583
everything we have in our dock. Yeah
3562
02:10:01,125 --> 02:10:02,916
Yeah, I don't know if there's much else.
3563
02:10:02,916 --> 02:10:04,125
Let's see if there's
3564
02:10:04,125 --> 02:10:06,416
any last-minute stories. I
3565
02:10:06,416 --> 02:10:10,500
I didn't make a video yesterday because
3566
02:10:10,500 --> 02:10:12,916
I've been working on my next one. My next
3567
02:10:12,916 --> 02:10:13,750
one is gonna be huge
3568
02:10:14,875 --> 02:10:17,166
I've probably spent like
3569
02:10:17,166 --> 02:10:19,500
two maybe three days on it
3570
02:10:20,125 --> 02:10:22,958
Like writing and editing so far and I
3571
02:10:22,958 --> 02:10:23,750
have two more days
3572
02:10:23,750 --> 02:10:25,000
left. I can almost guarantee
3573
02:10:26,041 --> 02:10:29,000
So that's gonna be cool. But I like I
3574
02:10:29,000 --> 02:10:30,625
didn't make a video yesterday because
3575
02:10:30,625 --> 02:10:31,750
there wasn't a whole lot of
3576
02:10:33,375 --> 02:10:36,208
Like Linux gaming news to cover so I
3577
02:10:36,208 --> 02:10:37,291
mean, I don't think there was that much
3578
02:10:37,291 --> 02:10:39,583
gaming news period besides, you know
3579
02:10:40,000 --> 02:10:41,750
Everything going up in price as a whole
3580
02:10:42,500 --> 02:10:43,166
Yeah
3581
02:10:44,833 --> 02:10:47,000
Awesome. Well, hopefully we don't see
3582
02:10:47,000 --> 02:10:49,125
that it next week and every week we have
3583
02:10:49,125 --> 02:10:52,541
higher prices due to terrorists. Yeah
3584
02:10:52,541 --> 02:10:59,458
Maybe I'll be wrong. Hey, you know what
3585
02:10:59,458 --> 02:11:01,000
bring it on. I already got all my stuff
3586
02:11:01,000 --> 02:11:02,750
I got my max studio. So I'm
3587
02:11:02,750 --> 02:11:05,166
good. I have I have my 3090 PC
3588
02:11:05,166 --> 02:11:08,875
I can weather it but you need a 5090 dude
3589
02:11:09,625 --> 02:11:11,125
You're 30 90s. I know anymore
3590
02:11:11,916 --> 02:11:15,250
FOMO dude, I know I have after signals
3591
02:11:15,250 --> 02:11:17,250
I I thought I would have more foam on I
3592
02:11:17,250 --> 02:11:19,041
usually do but like after seeing the
3593
02:11:19,041 --> 02:11:20,500
prices and how hard it is get and
3594
02:11:20,500 --> 02:11:22,083
Like I think AMD is
3595
02:11:22,083 --> 02:11:23,750
doing an okay enough job
3596
02:11:23,750 --> 02:11:26,416
And I'm just I think I'm gonna go for a
3597
02:11:26,416 --> 02:11:27,541
mid-range card eventually
3598
02:11:28,000 --> 02:11:30,958
But fuck this like the high range like go
3599
02:11:30,958 --> 02:11:32,875
high end go with a battle mage card
3600
02:11:32,875 --> 02:11:37,625
If you don't buy a 5090 for 2000 right
3601
02:11:37,625 --> 02:11:39,333
now the 69 is gonna be
3602
02:11:40,208 --> 02:11:42,666
Three thousand dollars four thousand
3603
02:11:43,666 --> 02:11:45,041
If you don't it's just gonna push me
3604
02:11:45,666 --> 02:11:47,833
More to just whatever else is there. I'm
3605
02:11:47,833 --> 02:11:48,666
not gonna I'm not
3606
02:11:48,666 --> 02:11:50,666
playing that game right now
3607
02:11:52,125 --> 02:11:53,833
True that true that I wouldn't want to
3608
02:11:53,833 --> 02:11:55,250
play this thing in the past
3609
02:11:55,541 --> 02:11:57,875
actually, the only reason I have a 3090
3610
02:11:57,875 --> 02:11:58,666
is because it's what
3611
02:11:58,666 --> 02:12:00,791
I could get during the
3612
02:12:01,958 --> 02:12:04,333
What is it the cryptocurrency era where
3613
02:12:04,333 --> 02:12:06,875
everything was sold out and I like 30 80s
3614
02:12:06,875 --> 02:12:08,041
were so I wanted it at 3080
3615
02:12:08,708 --> 02:12:10,500
but I
3616
02:12:10,500 --> 02:12:13,000
Could only get a 3090 because 30 80s were
3617
02:12:13,000 --> 02:12:14,541
just better at that mining crypto
3618
02:12:15,333 --> 02:12:17,583
You could only get a 3090 that sounds
3619
02:12:17,583 --> 02:12:18,041
like the most
3620
02:12:18,041 --> 02:12:19,625
ridiculous. They've ever heard but
3621
02:12:20,083 --> 02:12:22,666
Shit, man. Well, I mean I remember that
3622
02:12:22,666 --> 02:12:25,000
that was a terrible era for yeah
3623
02:12:25,000 --> 02:12:27,333
I see maybe I could have gotten something
3624
02:12:27,333 --> 02:12:28,833
that was much like like a
3625
02:12:29,416 --> 02:12:31,000
3050 or 60 or something like that, but I
3626
02:12:31,000 --> 02:12:32,250
didn't want that I wanted something like
3627
02:12:32,250 --> 02:12:34,250
a I wanted 70 or higher
3628
02:12:34,250 --> 02:12:36,333
And that's all I could get was at 3090
3629
02:12:37,083 --> 02:12:39,208
Yeah, I know it sounds
3630
02:12:39,208 --> 02:12:40,916
ridiculous, but it's what it is
3631
02:12:41,625 --> 02:12:43,458
And it overheats my
3632
02:12:43,458 --> 02:12:45,250
room so much. I hate it
3633
02:12:45,625 --> 02:12:45,875
Yeah
3634
02:12:48,375 --> 02:12:50,166
Well guys, I think
3635
02:12:50,166 --> 02:12:51,458
that's it for this episode
3636
02:12:53,333 --> 02:12:55,625
Two hours and 13 minutes
3637
02:12:55,625 --> 02:12:57,208

I'm a bit lower energy today, but or at
3642
02:13:08,625 --> 02:13:10,416
least now but I think it was cuz it's
3643
02:13:10,416 --> 02:13:11,833
like my blood pressure like shot to
3644
02:13:11,833 --> 02:13:13,750
The roof with that in an archive story
