 Hello! Welcome to the WAN Show everybody! We've got a great show for you guys today. You seem hesitant. We don't have a great show for them? Is it a bad show? We have intense, fairly intense news. The Apple topic? Oh, I know, right? So it turns out Apple is slowing down your old iPhone. Except for those of you who are like, haha, joke's on you, I don't have an iPhone. Except for you, Apple cannot slow down your iPhone, but they can slow down your friend's iPhone so you should still care about this. We'll talk about it a little more later. Intel CEO Brian Krasanich came out and said, we are going to take more risks. So basically, Intel is getting into, yeah, they're becoming, they're going to get into like the energy drink sector. Nice! And they're going to start doing like motocross. Intel inside, get it? They're going to have a new slogan. Intel, we want to be inside you. Right now. Right now. Over and over. All night. All night? Oh, I love it! Oh, we are off to a good start today. This is great. I can't get into the dock, but there is other good news. Good news. Yeah, Facebook strikes a music deal with Universal. Which is great news. Because we needed another music streaming platform. I needed another thing to subscribe to. Okay, I'm actually, okay, this is about to get really bad. So Taylor Swift's album. Oh, no you didn't. Just hold on. You did, didn't you? Just for that. You know what, we'll talk about it later. Also, Magic Leap, Magic Leap finally has a product. You ordered it? Well, I signed up. You can't order it yet. Oh, okay. So I signed up, so I'm expecting 10 years might show up. So we'll talk about the ultimate secrecy. These guys are ridiculous. I don't know how they got funding because they've never shown anything. No, they have. Only behind like- Individually. Yes. Like, NDA'd literally up the rectum. So no one knows what's going on in there. Until inside. Until inside. Okay, and intro time. Oh, oh. Oh, oh. Oh, oh. Oh, oh. Oh, oh. Oh, oh, oh. Oh, oh. Oh, yes, it is harder to change the- Guys, it's that. I can just talk louder. Does that work for everybody? Hooray, Squarespace. Squash base is that cool for a box? Okay, we can just yell all show. I'm down. Yeah, I'm down to go down to yell all show heck Yeah, apparently rip ears rip ears. Oh, sorry everyone Apparently it got louder, so I have no idea what you people are talking about That's a global Okay, so why don't we get into our first topic for the day Apple this was posted by dr. McIntosh on the forum The original article that we have here is from Yahoo Finance It's posted in twitch chat, but that's that's an odd one I don't think I have actually which which one have we tested is that is that the look one or is that? Oh minus one do we do we have any idea if either of these this one works? I believe that one works. I think okay Let's Let's see what happened All right rock on so about a week ago a massively popular and widely circulated thread on reddit posited that Apple purposely slows down performance on iPhones with older batteries Which people have been thinking? For kind of ever yeah, but now we've been able to you know so in a nutshell iPhone users have noticed their older phones not performing as well as they did before iOS 10.2.1 But they've also noticed that performance can increase After getting a new battery so it turns out that Apple has admitted that they are Intentionally gating the amount of power that the CPU demands from the battery This is because the phone will shut down to protect itself if the CPU demands more power than it can supply So there are three scenarios where batteries are less likely to be able to produce the big bursts of power that the CPU might ask for when they're cold When they're low and When the battery has degraded over time so what this means is that right out of the box you might run into a situation Where your CPU effectively throttles for a reason other than thermals except that it could be thermals, but cold thermals not hot thermals Yes, if you know that but the other takeaway here the third reason means that Out of out of a hundred iPhones how many of them will slow down a hundred a hundred yeah Because if it will throttle once the battery decays well, I shouldn't say decays degrades degrade They don't they don't necessarily decay. I mean they if you put enough like if you put enough chicken soup on them They could probably decay do you remember that old camera we used to use for? Tech tips videos lines tech tips videos that I got the chicken soup on yeah that decayed Oh, yeah, wow because yeah, because it was in my backpack for like over a span of a week. I didn't realize yeah chicken soup I didn't know it actually decayed well it smelled Okay, so the soup did yeah, well. I don't know the oh the contacts in the battery compartment were like corroded and stuff Okay, that makes sense. It's still not decay I don't know if it's a decay of sort. It's erosion. Well you know I've had enough of your crap How long do I have to put up with you again? Like when's your last day at Linus Media Group? Like slightly over a week. Yeah like just just over a week perfect perfect can't come soon enough One week, two days. I'll get to put down that piece of tape that will make it totally different than before yeah You'll be working in you'll be working in a separate office In an office all by myself while I talk to people over the internet marked by the masking tape Yeah, your office yeah, and I won't have to be in it except when I have to meet with you Oh, oh, oh we should talk about full plane stuff on the show Come on. I want to show the something But see every single time that this happens people get confused despite no matter how many times I say this isn't the site You're supposed to be using Everyone goes to go use it okay Also, you never actually ended up telling all the editors that they're supposed to upload things in a certain way And use that setting so it hasn't been being used So there's things that aren't supposed to be viewed yet on there And you're not gonna tell them until next week, and then you'll probably forget so it's really not Up to you. I'll think about it. People are gonna be seeing videos with the wrong titles. I'll think about it. I'll think about it okay Anyway the flow plane side of things going great. We have a new live stream panel thing set up, so We'll show it. We'll show it later, and yes, I did he's not streaming till later tonight. We'll talk about that later We're gonna go through you know what we're doing it. Okay. We're going through the thing because I'm an amp I'm an amp Okay, anyway, so starting with iOS 10.2.1 max CPU power draw steps down in proportion to battery capability It's not just like a like your battery is good So your phone runs at full speed or your battery is low okay the twitch has really confused about me leaving Might want to explain that okay? Starting January 1st all right all right new okay, okay? Can I finish the Apple battery thing and then can we get into okay? We'll come back to that come back to it's not that scary Don't worry about it. No, it's a little scary. I'm scared. I mean it's are you a little scared it throws me off pretty hard Yeah, but we'll talk about it in a moment. Okay, okay anyway anyway So so it's not a matter of like your battery is good or your battery is bad So your performance is like great or your performance like poo. Yeah, it's it's it's like it's a spectrum. You know So this was originally applied to the iPhone SE 6 and it's not a matter of like The iPhone SE 6 and has now been applied to the iPhone 7 and the 6s, and it's being planned for future devices So part of the problem though Okay, they could have brick the phones up front instead of breaking them a year after launch They wouldn't be as oppressive and competitive. Okay. You know what let's let's get into this because the rest of this is all kind of opinion stuff Hit me. What are your thoughts I? Don't like it Okay, can I I'm gonna can I play devil's advocate on this one because if you're gonna be if you're gonna not like it Then I'm gonna make the counter-argument here Your Android phone gets slow within a matter of weeks anyway, even if the battery is perfect I Haven't really used an iPhone very much, but don't they do pretty much the same thing and mine doesn't do in a matter of weeks Okay, so the pixel lasts a little longer it lasts quite a while quite a while longer And then I just reformatted it and then it was totally fine again. I'm on the pixel 2xl right now I'm quite happy with the with the mine took like over half a year. Okay. Look I'm not supposed to be on your side So and then I reformatted it and then it was fine again Let's all let's bear in mind though that like Samsung owns the lion's share of Android right now. Okay, and I'm not defending Samsung. Yeah, so okay, so so, you know, hey at least your performance is good for a year But then you can just you can't do that on my phone it doesn't solve the problem No, it doesn't solve the problem. So I have the ability to solve the problem iPhone doesn't You're not winning here Okay, I don't like that because this way like say I'm not a techie person look I try Say I'm not a wreck say I'm not I've read wrecked in the Chat say I'm not a techie person. Yeah, let's say that and you're my buddy and you're like Wow way to be way to be it with that little eye gesture thing And and I have a phone and I'm complaining to you that it got slower Yeah, if it's an Android phone, you can be like hey back up all your stuff reformat it put it back on everything's fine if it's an iPhone you can be like Go buy a new iPhone, but I guess yeah, so really the upsetting thing here is not Apple Degrading the performance to me that actually doesn't bother me and it wouldn't surprise me if other people were doing it and It wouldn't oh, yeah a big deal to me Oh, I would not be even remotely surprised at all if it was on the other side of the field as well So the part that is bothering me is that Apple is shipping these devices with batteries that are not only not user upgradeable Because I have that ship is sailed. I've gotten over that but that are difficult to DIY repair upgrade Or I shouldn't have said user upgrade will use a replaceable But they're difficult even as someone with a reasonable amount of DIY knowledge Like I have replaced phone batteries before even on ones with non replaceable batteries Like it's it's not rocket science if you're careful and you go slow. Yeah but they're making these devices that are difficult to replace the battery for and They are running them so close to the red line That surely they must know when they're shipping these things because it's not like lithium ion or lithium polymer batteries are Especially new technology at this point Apple in particular has done tons of research in this field. They know Exactly what's gonna happen with this thing? Yeah Pretty much perfectly and they're making a conscious decision Decision to like the fact that the iPhone 7 is affected. They're making a conscious decision To run them so close to the red line Sorry this side red line that they can only handle it for a year. Can you imagine? If a car manufacturer did this like let's say for example that Volkswagen Nothing against Volkswagen. Let's say for example, they're like not that long ago giant issues But yeah, let's say for example Volkswagen shipped a car that had great emissions for the first year Okay, yeah, and then when all the press Stopped benchmarking it and all those users. Well, they're just plum out of warranty Let's say hypothetically That when nobody was looking they made it so the emissions were bad Would that not be kind of similar and now to be clear we're not talking about a Ten year old car that just don't run the way it used to That's okay. This is very target, you know, that's why you know, that's why well BC used to anyway BC had a Program called air care where people would have to take very old vehicles Yeah, and they would have to demonstrate that they've been keeping them up well enough. It was they don't have really difficult horrible emissions It was like a huge problem and You know, I I had a car before that I used to have to make sure I had a nice fresh oil change in it Nice fresh oil change. I mean the highway for a while premium gas yeah, we know all the anyway, so The point is the point is this is I Really don't think okay. So my iPhone 4 my iPhone 4 is really slow and I get it That's a really old device that also, you know It's not getting security updates anymore like really has no no right to be to be used like as a daily driver at this point And and I could and the thing too is like I could replace it with something that would be a much better Experience for an amount of money that I consider reasonable to tell someone Just upgrade your device like I could upgrade to an iPhone 5s and that would be way better I could get a cheap 5s I'd get a way better experience and I could probably do that for I don't know what a 5s is worth It can't be more than like around a hundred bucks. Like I can't even yeah, I don't know. I don't know Don't quote me on that. The point is Apple is not doing that with six-year-old devices Apple is doing this with devices that are well within What I would consider to be the prime of their lives a one-year-old phone is not an old phone You're looking at used 150 give or take 1020 and new 200 240 Okay, and but I consider I consider a used phone if you're on a budget a perfectly reasonable thing to do Yeah, so so I'm not that far off So I can't I can't defend what they're doing because it really feels misleading I'd like to be chasing that headline. They're chasing that headline. Have the iPhones the fastest have they Posted anything in response to this I'm actually you know what to be perfectly honest. I'm not sure because to flip sides on you a little bit I wonder if there is some legitimate technical reason to the point of trying to reduce issues with these batteries Mm-hmm Maybe using them at the same rate as before it could could produce critical situations where you have because batteries Sorry Shutdowns Yeah, preventing shutdowns We talked about that already Preventing shutdowns battery issues having a lithium-ion battery in your pocket is like not cool And has become really common but is like super sketchy and luckily these manufacturers of things have been doing things Mostly right outside of Samsung that one time, you know, yeah bombs You know funny to joke about now So, I don't know it could have something to do with that. I haven't personally seen an official statement anywhere Yeah, they they've acknowledged that they're doing it. They've said it's to prevent shutdowns But basically the cold hard truth is they're only doing this so that they can they can run it right at the red line for a while Knowing that no one's gonna no one's gonna benchmark it and no one's gonna give this the kind of press like even now We're talking about it now, but when the iPhone X 2 or whatever, maybe they'll take on like a Final Fantasy esque Yeah, I like it. Yeah Maybe when the the iPhone X 2 is running, it's gonna be like Yeah, maybe when the iPhone X 2 rolls around Like by the time that happens, we're not gonna be talking about this again. We're not gonna be like Here's the review of the new iPhone X 2 by the way Your iPhone 10 now performs like this and your iPhone 8 now performs like this Wow, but we get but you can't because it won't even necessarily be applicable. Maybe maybe mine is still running at 98% But maybe there are other people out there who let's say they use wireless charging all the time uh Which by the way like Apple won't say yes It degrades it and I can't say like like with absolute certainty Yes, it will degrade at this amount, but it will degrade it some amount. We don't know how much but heat is bad we know this heat is bad for batteries and Wireless charging produces more heat so someone who's running around like leaving their phone on a wireless charger Trickle charging all the time for example or who just uses a wireless charger at night unnecessarily instead of plugging in They could be at risk of actually degrading the performance of their phone a year or two down the line So this is something like we're gonna want to keep talking about but I really don't know if it's uh, I Really don't know if it's gonna keep people's attention the way that a shiny fast new iPhone does Okay Let's get let's get through our sponsors and then we'll talk about Luke leaving Linus Media Group sure See how I made them stay tuned like that Whoo, whoa So first up is school where space think about it. This might be your last Squarespace sponsor spot as an LMG employee. Okay. Yeah, is that crazy? Maybe I know I think a little bit of a spoiler in there I think we're gonna continue working with Squarespace for a long time. Yeah, it's a Squarespace is the place to go to you know, let's say you weren't employed with your old employer anymore Let's say you had to create an online portfolio to wow took, you know Wow Jesus If I needed to do that I'd have 24-7 live chat and email support which would be great It would only cost me $12 a month because apparently I don't have a job anymore except I do Not here All their great templates feature responsive design So they'll look great if your potential employer is looking at them on a laptop computer or on their slow year old phone They've got a lot of great features like their logo designer and cover pages The ability to publish content in Apple News format directly from the Squarespace blog Every site includes commerce like if you wanted to I don't know spend all that spare time that you might have weaving little Etsy baskets you can sell them through your Squarespace store Basket weaving yes, if you if you sign up for a gear you get a free domain Yep, so head over to Squarespace.com slash when and use offer code when to get 10% off Which leads us right into our next sponsor spot. I fix it So let's say that the basket weaving doesn't doesn't work out for you there Yeah, maybe you want to get into small-time electronics repair like replacing batteries And phones I fix it has got the tools for you They've got everything from suction cups to their 64-bit driver kit to their like big tool pack with like the magnetic Sheet that has all the little it's like dry erase so you can write what everything is and you can stick all the screws to it Super handy ESD straps. They've got everything and they've got the guides So you won't actually not have to know a damn thing about electronic repair Yeah To start up a Squarespace site get your iFixit kit and start repairing electronics Go to ifixit.com slash Linus and get the fully loaded ProTech tool kit for just 60 US dollars and then Once that starts going well When you need to do all your accounting for your small business Then you use your iFixit tools on that you advertise on your Squarespace site You can use FreshBooks Oh That is that is a that is a grand slam sponsor lineup right there I feel like this was set up Oh that was fun And you can create and send slick looking invoices Oh boy in just seconds FreshBooks is everything you need as a small business owner or a freelancer to help you keep track of your time with their timesheet function Manage your expenses and keep track of who owes you what As for me LMG only owing you anything that's going to be nothing so you know I mean technically Well okay well yeah I think it's going to be the other way around because you you get the okay well we'll get into that We'll get into that FreshBooks has tons of great features they've got mobile support so you've got the full functionality of the FreshBooks cloud accounting platform on Android or iOS However slow that might be And if you've got any questions you can reach out to their support staff where you'll speak to a real human No phone tree no escalations no return calls just answers So go to FreshBooks.com slash when and get a free trial Try out FreshBooks You know what FreshBooks is one of those ones where I've like poked the bear I've tempted fate I've said It's one of the sponsors one of the few sponsors that we have never gotten a competitive about And we still haven't gotten one Nothing credible I shouldn't say we've never gotten one because we might have gotten something but I've never because I will actually escalate things personally to a brand if something comes through and they're an actual customer But nothing has ever made it to my desk I have never seen a comment it's impressive So go get a 30 day free trial at the link in the video description FreshBooks.com slash tech tips enter the WAN show in the how to do your vote section Oh that's weird our lower third says slash WAN well try them both Alright so you're leaving Linus Media Group or are you being fired? I don't I literally don't know how is that going to work does that have to that has to legally work in a way Oh yeah oh yeah like you're gone you're done No I know but which one like it has to be one right? Oh no well no it's that it's fired quit or laid off Yeah and you're not laid off so I think technically you have to quit You have to quit oh this sucks What if I don't quit? This sucks What happens? Yeah no I'm pretty sure you have to quit Because your other employer Floatplane Media It's going to be like what the hell Yeah it's going to be like uh yo By the way it may actually be a conflict of interest for you to maintain your position It would be Yeah it absolutely would be yeah So um so Luke is not quitting quitting he's just quitting Um yeah confusing so I'm still going to be on WAN's show if Linus ever actually lets me make a video I will make a video I'm going to be at CES We're working on that one soon together Oh yeah that's not really Oh that's going to be fun It'll be fun but it's not like a And you have that I'm not sure if I should make a video on that I think you should I don't it's not as cool Oh alright well if nothing else we could do the classic react and just have some fun with it Yeah Anyway we'll come back to that I do want to still do some stuff You might need to sign out Okay I got this I got this Anyways Floatplane has been my full time thing for quite a while now So most of this stuff is just stuff happening on paper that doesn't actually mean anything for you guys I'm still going to be on WAN's show every week You'll be doing CES coverage I'll be doing CES coverage so I'll be making videos down there for sure I won't be making as many as you Until I get to handle most of the load myself this year which is great Yeah I'm hoping by next year to have something planned for that There's some perceptionally confusion stuff with the scheduling side of things I think I can do more than I'm currently scheduled for Oh okay So we'll see how that goes Sure Yeah basically nothing's going to change on your side of things I'll still be doing CES I'll still be doing WAN's show I'm still going to be doing a video every now and then Just kind of you know not that often And I will be more on paper Same with everyone that is currently a Floatplane person We'll be more on paper a Floatplane person Because right now we're all technically like Linus Media Group Yeah so right now Linus Media Group is paying the bills But starting January 1st formally Floatplane Media is starting up as a separate company Floatplane Media is acquiring the employees and the intellectual property from Linus Media Group The trademarks all that kind of stuff And it will become its own separate legal entity So we were joking about it earlier on the show But we are actually going to put tape down on the floor Maybe put up a sign or something like make it kind of fun And Floatplane Media will have an office It will be here within this building But legally speaking Well it will be it's like you have to lease it Yeah it's like your renting space Linus Media Group will be subleasing some of the property to Floatplane Media And Floatplane Media has to pay for it Like legally you can't give stuff away at least here in BC You can't give away a car to a friend Unless it's like under a certain value because You have to pay tax on it There's taxation problems with that So like Linus Media Group can't just be like We're buddies you can use our office space So we have to actually start doing everything by the book Which is both terrifying and really exciting Because I have something really cool to show you guys That we weren't 100% sure if we were going to show you I still don't think it's a great idea But you know what I want to do it this is so cool Linus' screen I'm even going to put I'm even just going to get rid of us We're just going to go Floatplane Front and center That's all fine That's just places I go Here we go So this is the sign in screen Now to be clear This won't work for you guys yet My account was manually created by manually creating entries in the database We're just going to not talk about that And we're not going to talk about that Okay what just happened LOL There it is Okay Crying out loud Okay so this is a sneak peek at the pre-alpha Pre-alpha of Floatplane.com So you can see here There's a few things Like what can I show Should I click on a video Sure Okay That one So Razor Phone The review of the Razor Phone is one of the videos that is up on Floatplane But is not yet up on YouTube So you can see here the video content is really front and center in the design Some of these things are going to end up tweaked just to be clear We're calling it pre-alpha because everyone here is beta and thinks basically finished product Yeah because that's changed in my lifetime But this is Let's call it pre-alpha even though it's If you go with how that structure worked when I was young This is like a beta If you go with how that structure works now With things like the early access games on stream Then this is a like pre-alpha However you want to see it, it's early on Yep So Man that player It looks good man So there's a lot of stuff that you might not have expected from a pre-alpha stage type product So we've got thumbnail previews working One of our guys Yuki has worked really hard and gotten it so that Our color profiles are wider than places like YouTube So if you have something like a really dark shot you'll be able to see more on our platform We can't show you the proper comparison for that right now It's not our content And I don't think it would come through Twitch anyways So we can't really show you Also there's a guy that I don't know if I can say his name yet I haven't asked him Has been working on live streaming really heavily You can see live testing I don't think I'm currently running right now so Yeah, no that's fine I'm really worried about that But should we talk about that? Yeah I think we should totally talk about that Hold on I want to go a little bit Oh yeah, oh yeah yeah yeah let's talk about that Okay hold on let's pull back to us for a second then Yeah So Kyle from Bitwit He's gonna be The plan is The last time I heard from him Is Um Oh Uh oh He's like now Is now a good time for you to show me the ropes? No I'm streaming right now Kyle Um So Kyle is actually planning to do the first Public facing float plane live stream The first official one Not a test Yeah Um tonight So if you are subscribed to Bitwit Ultra on float plane Then right now that's still running through the LinusTechTips.com forum I'm just gonna paste the link But another guy on the team that I don't know if I can say his name publicly Has been working really hard on the new payment system Which is awesome because the current payment system is horrible Terrible And we're gonna do it right And we're gonna have an awesome payment system coming Yep the best payment system The best The greatest payment system Um So that's really exciting So you guys might wanna check out Bitwit That'll be the first float plane live stream from a creator Um let's just go back to Let's go back to this here Linus's screen So that's still running which is good I can't show you guys right now Um but we have a chat system working for the live stream Um and that chat system has like basic moderation tools Yep And highlighting for when the creator talks in the chat And all this other kind of really cool stuff that um Don't know if I can say name Has been working really hard on Um and it actually looks pretty good This is pretty cool Uh we've got comments working We are gonna have thumbs down because We believe that some comments deserve a thumbs down Damn it Um they do Down voting is important These are real people by the way These are people actually using the site These are our pre-alpha testers Yep Um so this is one you can see It's uh shaded green because I thumbed it up A few people thumbed that up We don't have replies working But that's coming That's coming Yep It's being worked on Uh Everyone on the full plane team has been like going super hard Yep I even told like everybody that they could leave early today And people are still talking in the work chat Because they're watching the stream Um right now I can see you on my phone Um which is like that's pretty hardcore Uh so this is pretty cool There's a live button here Um so Kyle's channel when he's live Hopefully we would be able to uh Yeah we're gonna have So we're gonna have the standard like there will be a thumbnail sitting here Yeah Kind of situation There will be some stuff you can fill in here This is just placeholder text right now Uh I'm subscribed to Kyle as you can see And then this is a chat so Yeah so you can talk Hello world Hello Let's go ahead and uh just do that there so you can Oh wait they can see it already So uh so that's what the live streaming will look like Um let's go ahead and go back to our stuff We can talk about some of the stuff that's on there So we've got um the LG gram late 2017 That video's up We've got best case under 35 bucks This is what Luke was referring to earlier when he was saying The editors when they upload the videos are not using like the real title Like this is just our file name Um Yeah They don't realize that it's public facing now Because that's a feature that we've had for a long time The ability to put a title and description and keywords and stuff But it's never actually been public facing Because we've just been posting them into the forum Uh so that's great Dale the sleeper is live now So that's uh the sequel to Hubert the sleeper This is a really cool machine you guys Uh Razer phone is up Uh the oh the quad core blade stealth That video is up Lenovo Thinkpad anniversary edition That's up on float plane And uh we do have some exclusive content over there as well So this is a pretty cool little look at the um the guts Did you see this? Uh yes Yeah So this is like kind of the equivalent of a developing kit A developer kit for automated cars Really cool It's really cool stuff I don't recognize almost anything Yeah But the number of sensors in this thing is freaking bananas So it's just a little 3 minute uh 3 minute tour of that I actually think I have another update that's going to go up Uh probably sometime this weekend So um should I show them the CNS? Another Another cool thing that's working Um there's no way to set it manually right now Uh but automatic uh quality changing Yeah yeah you can definitely show that Automatic quality changing is going to work on the stream Which is really cool AJ's been working on that And a huge amount of other things Um for quite a while So that's I'm stoked that that's working So um Oh someone says they don't see Dale on float plane Oh crap I wonder if it's like Someone set it to the wrong status So very recently we finished an update uh Okay uh well what you'll know for sure then having seen that Is that it's coming very soon because the video's ready We very recently finished an update that allows for like the public private unlisted style setup That most video platform sites have And uh the people uploading the videos haven't started using it yet So everything's just been public on that site So there you go Um got people asking about iJustine Um I definitely have talked to Justine about it Um I'm okay here's the thing I haven't talked to that many people about it Just because I haven't had anything to show them up until about this week Other than like um still images And that's not compelling It's a weird balance of like we don't want to do the always in beta thing But then we've been in production since before we had anything So we have kind of always been in beta But then we didn't want to like advertise to other creators before then And it's a chicken and egg thing too because it's hard to You don't want to spend a year working on a platform if you don't have any creators But you don't want to talk to creators about a platform that doesn't exist That you don't have you don't want to make promises that you can't back up So we've been really cautious and really careful about what we can commit to And you know we're doing our best to keep from disappointing anybody I think that's really the main thing for us Is we're trying not to screw anything up Um will floatplane allow can girls? I'm sure you mean cam girls and no comment at this time One thing I will say about floatplane is that we do intend for it to be fairly non restrictive In terms of the kind of content creators that can be there Well there's also yeah there's no should we go into that and go into it slightly I don't think we should go into a ton of detail I mean this is Wanshow we can still do a little bit of tech news We've done like two topics but it's something that It's extremely unlikely that a conventional cam girl will be on the platform But if there's like an artistic element we're going to look into that side of things maybe Yeah so we'll see We're not sure yet we're going to work with like We're going to work with creators And like friends of ours Like that's who we're going to work with in terms of like what they want this platform to be Because right now we're just building a toolbox And we want people to use it the way that they want to use it My phone's dying By all the floatplane people that I don't know if I can say your name Great work People are like body paint? Very happy to show it That's going to be a gray area See like I don't we don't know We're going to it's going to take talking to people it's going to take planning We're not really focused on that right now Intel CPU Yeah Intel CEO Kind of the CPU We are going to take more risks The original article here is from techspot.com Let's go ahead and actually click that and see if that's going to work for me there How's that going? Minus the screen We're going to take more risks We are taking the bull by the horns That is some pretty corporate speak right there Here's a letter that Brian Krasanich wrote to the employees 2017 comes to a close Almost impossible to predict the future One cool thing is that Intel is almost a 50-50 company Which is to say that half the revenue comes from the PC And half from new things that they have tried to create And it's weird to think of Intel as an underdog But in a lot of those markets they are You know you look at Intel and the way they tried to break into phones for example Look at disaster But that doesn't mean that they are going to stop doing that They are just going to keep trying new things And see if they can grow that way apparently So that's good I guess Do you want to talk about the Magic Leap? We still don't really know much Yeah I guess we can go through this pretty quickly I can talk about it though One, they have an amazing website You should go to their actual native website It's really cool Yeah it is really cool Hold on I'm just going to go to it It's like you scroll down And it comes out of like a crystal ball It's actually worth looking at Just because it's like just really cool That scroll didn't work as well as it's supposed to There you go yeah See that? So I'm scrolling with my touchpad right now And it goes out of this thing And then you start actually scrolling down the page Then it looks like a normal website So there's a few things that we can see here One is that this is photoshopped Is it? That's hilarious That's a render Yeah there's absolutely no way Look at this I don't buy it That's hilarious Yeah like look see the light coming off his face on this side And see the way that this is lit Like you can tell they tried But no I don't buy it Either way I believe those are translucent lenses They show it somewhere else That's pretty cool And the fact that you can see through it Which is super cool Digital light field Scroll up a little bit I noticed one thing You know I've been talking about this This since the garage Hmm Compute that is untethered from the wall But is not up on your head That's really cool That's a way better approach I remember we had joked about doing Like a wearable computer Where we literally strapped a UPS to the back And a power supply So you could have a full desktop experience But wearing the whole thing as a body suit As opposed to putting the whole thing in a backpack Yeah But that's actually a very cool idea Having untethered but also tethered But where it's tethered to you is very cool SDK is coming Interesting And as a reporter There's different ways that you can sign up You can sign up as a developer Or whatever else I sign up as a reporter I'm waiting to hear back This is super interesting Open up displays all over the room Yeah Gaming and AR basically Yeah The fact that you can see through the lenses Is very cool Because there isn't that many of those That are actually That you can get that are any good Basically just fakes So they're saying they're going to ship in 2018 Yeah and you get that controller Which doesn't look like the most gamery controller It looks like an experiential controller But that doesn't mean it won't be compatible with other controllers USB type C This looks like a wireless charging thing Type C on the That's the compute No no this looks like Oh is it the whole thing is the compute thing I'm not sure I think that might be wireless charge module on the bottom Because if not that's a lot to tuck into a belt or whatever Yeah But that is the compute unit We can run up and have a look at the guy who had it on Yeah I think that's just It looks like it's in his pocket though It doesn't look like it's going through his belt So it could be really bulky on the inside actually Okay I haven't read the individual things Yeah I think the bulk does go here Actually we've got a better look at it here So you can kind of see that It looks like that big bulky thing does go into his pocket I like that that looks quite robust Yeah me too Because you can be moving around quite a bit But the thing is that if you make it too robust Then it just wears Yeah I know Instead of here So we've run into that before that's for sure Yeah it looks fairly well done though So yeah these guys have gotten a lot of funding Including from Intel Speaking of experimental things that Intel's done So it's better than a backpack I guess I would think so It looks like it's going to be about the same performance scale As the ones that intend to have it built into the headset But adding weight to the headset is not in my opinion the right way to do it And having it so that it can go on in your pocket or something That sounds cool Linus and I have been talking about the Compute and storage disk that goes in your pocket For the last like four years So I'm stoked that it's happening in a way Blah blah blah I may be wrong about Intel having backed Magically Google for sure, Alibaba for sure But I might have been wrong about that one I thought they were one of the ones that had put some money into it Apparently they've raised about two billion dollars so far And they have shown basically nothing publicly Nvidia ended driver support for 32 bit operating systems So the original article there This was posted by Matrik07012 on the forum The original article is from Nvidia Whoops, but I don't know what I just did There we go Yeah so I get it Like if you bought Windows 10 32 bit Like you really suck at buying Windows I literally didn't even know that was a thing Yeah, it's pretty dumb Why did they even do that? I don't know Compatibility with like really wacko stuff? I would just run the previous OS Durant's NK Yeah but then you wouldn't get security updates Like Microsoft's story has to be get the security updates Blah blah blah Last version of Windows, et cetera AMD confirms second generation Ryzen processors to debut in Q1 2018 Cool So they'll be like a little bit more better Yeah To be clear, second generation does not mean Zen 2 So we can expect tweaks, not twerks Still cool Yeah, still cool That's exciting It's cool to see them actually continuing to release stuff WMGroomAK posted this on the forum Seagate has announced multi-actuator technology Yeah Wah wah So now I thought this was a graphic Here we go, yeah there it goes So now you can actually boost performance By having the read and write heads Move to different parts of the disk independently So if you need something that's on this platter This head can go get it And if you need something that's on this platter This head can go get it And they don't have to wait for each other So this is kind of like SLI for hard drives But like inside the drive Yeah In the past And like is actually becoming a thing instead of becoming less a thing Yeah, so in the past all of those heads would have had to move in synchronization Whereas now they can split up Now to be clear you won't expect to double the performance No Much like SLI But what you will get is potentially much improved random reads and writes Yes I mean I'm not going to say that it's going to get up there with an SSD But it's going to be a lot better I would think And like if you're in like a torturous situation Where hard drives would like really really really start bottlenecking This one should feel it much less Yeah Okay there's actually a lot more stuff in here But like the show is most assuredly over Because it is definitely Christmas break And people definitely want to go home And I'm definitely not done shooting Mining Adventure Part 2 over there So that's pretty much it Oh Wait no are we good? Yeah Yeah I think so If you are a Bitwit Ultra subscriber Either myself or Kyle or Linus will post a thing on how to view his livestream Oh yeah right In the Bitwit Ultra subforum Yeah on the actual forum Forum Like not on the Floatplane site The Floatplane site is still closed pre-alpha Oh yeah I'm going to have like at least a few hours of support tickets again this weekend Explaining that that is not the site people are supposed to go to That happens every time Guys please do not write Lucas support ticket Because then the site development will be slower Um It probably won't affect it that much I'm trying to scare them Yeah it'll be so Alright see you again next week same bad time same bad channel why isn't this playing I don't know what's going on here Never heard of that before right click properties Yeah Uh Uh Uh Okay Wow no idea what that was That should have worked but it Would it into properties Okay Okay On the Christmas Team I'm on the why not both team Merry Christmas, Happy Holidays, jovial time off. Whatever doesn't make you unhappy. Yeah, like Merry PTO. What? That's what Americans call it. Paid time off. Yeah. Oh, hold on, hold on, we're still streaming.
