 It's WAN Showtime! Hooray! Okay, oh man, I am like sweating right now. We had a bit of a situation before the show. So that video will probably be up in about a week or so after editing. Yeah. Yeah. So there's some pretty big news for this week. Sourcefed is gone! Exploded! And I actually, I have, even though I've never really watched the show, Brendan, can you just tilt us up a bit? Our belly buttons are showing. I don't think Twitch allows the mid-rift show. So our, what was I saying? Right, right, right. I've got quite a bit to say about that because I've actually kind of modeled our business after Sourcefed. Sourcefed specifically? There's a hint. Geez. All right, well it was nice being on the show with you guys. I guess we look for another job. There's a lot more Ryzen news this week. How unexpectamated. What else we got? I love how, one thing before I keep going, I love how our Ryzen news for the last few weeks has been like one of X amount. These are the many Ryzen topics that there are. Which is good because we have something to talk about. Twitter might build a paid subscription service for power users. And? We're going to announce that right now? We're going to announce that, we're going to announce it. There is a big announcement coming in probably about 14 minutes. Should I go that way? I don't know exactly what it is but not any of the details around what will happen in about 14 minutes. Scrapyard Wars 5 is planned and is happening like... Imminently. Very, very soon. As in like a couple days. Not a couple months or a couple weeks. I'm still not quite sure how we're going to do. I fix it. Zotac. I just won't be able to heal. Mas. But you can monitor through the thing. That would be terrible. You know what? We will figure it out live. Because that's what we do. Do it live. Do it live from the side of the road. Do you have two headphone outputs on there? And are they both quarter inch? I have a thing that I watched someone set up two months ago. It has monitoring ports though, right? Yes. Two of them? So someone moved the monitors that are supposed to be left here. And so the ones that are plugged into the port that the monitors are supposed to be plugged into. Would that be the adapter jack right there then? Maybe. But also probably not. So there's that. Okay. So we're not sure how we're going to have that call, but we're not going to explain what that call is. So first topic of the day. Can we jump right into SourceFed? Sure. Okay. So SourceFed shutting down. I'm just going to go ahead and pull up there. SourceFed is shutting down. It's on Reddit. It's on Amplify. Where is the actual video? It's not in the doc. So I don't have a link for you guys. There's a Philip DeFranco video, right? Is that what you're talking about? No, no. The one where the hosts are all, oh here it is. Oh here we go. Here we go. Here we go. Okay. So Linus's screen. Is that just a capture of the thumbnail and not an embed? Really? There we go. There we go. Because that shouldn't, that couldn't just be at the top. So basically here are a bunch of hosts, none of whom I recognize. And they're sad because they all lost their jobs. Apparently there were about 40 people working at SourceFed at this point. 40 people. That's sort of insane. So the history behind SourceFed is that, and you'll have to correct me if I got this wrong because as much as I've sort of modeled some of what we do here after it, I, how do I say this? I have never actually watched a full episode of SourceFed. So how have you done that? I don't understand. Well no this isn't, okay, okay. There's a live stream right now. Watch this. Yeah, this is their final live stream. Watch this one. Yeah, watch this live stream. We'll talk about theirs. That one will be archived. Discovery has already come out and said they're not removing the videos so you'll have plenty of opportunities to go watch that live stream later. But basically, okay, right, right, right, right, right. Sorry, I'm very scattered right now. I've been kind of running around. There's some crazy stuff going down. You guys will see a video about it in about a week. So remember how we talked, I think it was last week or two weeks ago, about how I modeled WAN Show after some other tech podcast that I had never watched. Yeah, okay, yeah. Like three weeks ago? Yeah, maybe. Okay. Same thing. Basically, it's me kind of... Here's a name and a description. I'll base a company off of it. Well, no, no, it's not based on the company. I viewed SourceFed as a validation that the model of bringing a group of people together and creating multiple channels, but rather than through a multi-channel network, like an MCN that is just acting in an agency role for a bunch of independent... Having a company that runs all the different channels instead of a company that does things for all the different channels. Yes. And so I kind of looked at that and I went, okay, they're making it work. They're able to monetize it effectively enough that they've managed to keep the lights on. So they were like a proof of concept for me. Okay, I remember these talks now. They were like a proof of concept for me. And now they're gone. So basically what happened... So we've got to follow the trend. Yeah, you'll have to... No. You'll have to correct me. Or you'll have to bear with me if I get some of the details wrong because I didn't really follow the channel. I think it's like news or something. Anyway, so Phil DeFranco, who had a news show way back a zillion years ago, sort of one of the YouTubers. You know, it was like... He still does. Well, I know he does now, but he's not like the guy anymore. We're talking back when Ray William Johnson was the top subscribed channel on YouTube. You would utter Phil DeFranco's name in the same breath. Like these guys were the OG big YouTubers. He's getting like... Yeah, he's big again, but he's not even... Like you think he's an order of magnitude behind PewDiePie. But the amount of views per video that he's getting is putting him up there. He's doing... Like he had kind of fallen off the rails a bit and he's doing really well again. Anyway, the point is he's OG. And back when Google did an initial round of funding big creators to create custom content for the platform. This? What's that? He does this thing. Do you see that? Oh, the thing that he does in his thumbnails? He does that in every thumbnail. Illuminati? Oh. Maybe that's it. Maybe you figured it out. You know what? Yes! The show's probably gonna get... How to survive on YouTube. The show's gonna get pulled down now because we've uncovered the secret. I mean, you know that the SWAT team is right outside that door, right? Yeah, of course. Yeah. Okay. Well, no, because they're cool with us because that's how we got here too. You said you modeled it after SourceFed. That's where the Source is. We only made it as a company because of the thing. The Source. Yeah. We were fed by the Source. Anyway, the Source also is shutting down. So there's that. Source by Circuit City. Don't name your name... Don't name your company. Something to do with Source. Yeah, Source seems to be a bad place to head. Okay, anyway. So we got funding to start up SourceFed. Completely different channel, also based around daily news. Very, very quick, up-to-date daily news. From there, they expanded dramatically. I don't remember what happened first. Phil getting the offer from Discovery Network or D3 or Discovery Channel, whatever, Discovery. Phil getting the offer from Discovery to become an exec of some sort there, and then they acquired the show or something like that. I don't know if that happened first, or they started up the other shows under the SourceFed umbrella, like SourceFed Nerd. Yeah, I also don't know, but I think they were acquired first. Okay, but all that stuff kind of happened, and they had kind of a good thing going on. They were, you know, Sexy Phil's channel, so his original channel was kind of doing okay, but SourceFed was growing. SourceFed Nerd was growing real fast, and everything was going gangbusters. And then, you know, I don't know how these things happened, but the hosts of SourceFed got so popular that they were just like, peace, bro. I'ma go indie. Like all of them. Yes, literally. Literally, all of them. And what happened was it became kind of a revolving door. Even at their height, I couldn't really figure out what the monetization model was there, because Brandon actually worked on a live show that they did here. You knew that, right? Yep. Yeah, so he was like, he actually has a clause in his contract that, oh no, I wasn't calling you. Oh, okay, he has like a non-compete clause in his contract where, like, he can't sort of run around working with other YouTubers willy-nilly, but he was like, I really like these guys, they need a camera guy, they're gonna be here doing a show. Yeah, they were like touring, this was like a one-time thing. He was like, can I do it? I was like, yeah, that's super cool. And the funny thing is I actually ended up taking his ticket and going on a date with Brandon's girlfriend, because- Oh, this is the story you're telling? Yeah. I'm like, wait, what's going on? Yeah, I thought you heard your name and came running out here. No. Yeah, I was talking about you. Were your ears burning? So Brandon bailed on his girlfriend to actually camera-op for their live show, and I took a seat because I was like really curious because, like I said, I was really interested in their business model. And I was like, oh, these live shows, this is kind of interesting. So anyway, he discovered at that time that they had like 40, 50 people working there. And this is at a time when we had five, I think? Back then, if it wasn't five, it was six or something. I think it was OGs plus Taron. She might actually know things about SourceFed. Oh, seriously, okay. Might legitimately be helpful. Well, here we go, it's happening again. Hi, hi, Mrs. LaFreniere. Hey, how you doing? Oh, I was great. No, I'm just phoning to say that I have watched Bill DeFranco since he started with his backwards baseball cap and one sparkly earring. She's watched him for many years. I've been a fan of his forever and ever. He's great. Really loved him. He handpicked the original SourceFed troop and it was an awesome, awesome show. And then of course, he hasn't had anything to do with it for a few years, which in my opinion is why maybe it didn't keep going well. But I just wanted to shout out Bill DeFranco. I've been watching him forever and he's awesome. Okay, so the hidden message here then is that you want me to make sure that I'm micromanaging everything at LMG so that it doesn't explode. Is that what Mom LaFreniere is kind of throwing at me? Because I'm picking that up. No, I think you're not smelling very good what I'm cooking here, Lina. All right, got it. Got it. Read you loud and clear. Phil is better than me and his influence is good and mine is bad. Now am I closer? You are not picking up what I'm putting down at all. Jay what's up Mom? No, I just shout now Phil. I watched him because when he started out, he was sort of the same age as you and your brother and I wanted to be up on what was going on in your lives. So I watched him and I've watched him grow and get married and have kids and he's an awesome dude. Do you have any comments about SourceFed? I liked SourceFed when he was running it and as soon as he stepped away in my opinion, it wasn't the same and it didn't have the integrity that it had once he left. Got it. All right. So there you have it. There you have it kids. That my friends is how to relate to your children and be up on what's going on in their lives. It's watching the same shows they do. Seriously. She was hardcore about it too. I remember there was one time I probably said this story on WAN a long long long time ago, my dad yelled across from the house asking if I wanted to go to the bank and I was like yeah and we both just sat there and Mom went and got ready and then was like standing by the door and he's like are we gonna go to the bank and we were talking about the bank in World of Warcraft and then so that was the day that she decided to just play it to figure out what was going on. She got to level like 40 or something and she was like okay yeah I get it. She played Skyrim 2 just because I really liked the Elder Scrolls games. She was like I'll figure out what's going on here. Mom's always been gung ho about things. Thanks for calling Mom. Yeah we've got Twitch chat saying you should do the same drugs your kids do. I think that was really not where we were going with that at all. So yeah. Experiencing similar content and doing drugs is not the same thing. Okay. Rising news. There is some rising news this week. So it looks like let's go ahead and pull this up. This was originally posted. No no don't worry I'm good. This was originally posted on the forum by Doc Swag who has one of the better user names that I think I have yet encountered on the forum. And this is so the source here is from r slash amd. Let's go ahead and pull that up here. And it was a response from AMD talking about infinity fabric how the CCX modules are hooked up to the integrated memory controllers and basically the summary here so the important bits is that the infinity fabric connects each CCX to and so those are those are so the eight cores have multiple CCX's so two four core CCX's they're kind of like modules or something. So each CCX to un-core so not processing core devices like memory controllers PCI Express controller, SATA USB etc. It's a 256 bit bi-directional crossbar and runs at the speed of the memory controller. So effectively increasing your memory speed increases the clock speed of the infinity fabric. This is enlightening for a number of reasons. So number one is that it was pretty confusing to me that it had been a long an awful long time since system memory had been any kind of a bottleneck in a desktop workload. An awful long time and all of a sudden Ryzen comes in and all of a sudden you know you know AMD is putting together a guide for how to overclock Ryzen like recommendations are like yeah we're really focused on like memory overclocking like what memory overclocking are you kidding me how's that how's that important you got dual channel DDR4 isn't that an awful lot of memory clock speed and so it turns out that it actually affects not just the communication between the cores the processing cores and the DRAM but also the communication between the processing cores. Very very interesting. I'm setting up the call stuff. Oh you are well that's wonderful. Nick did you want something or oh okay yeah yeah don't worry yeah working on it we got this. If you want to like help Jake I guess that's the only thing or don't he's working on it doesn't matter. Jake is rounding some stuff up. It's not he's probably got it it's not a big deal. Alright we've got more Ryzen news so there's a fix coming this was originally posted on the forum by I'm just gonna have a look here we haven't briefed James James I feel like he's my Newman right now James we haven't briefed him on how to put the OP for the forum post in the docs so that we don't actually have to click it before we say that Morgan NLG men okay that's a pretty good username too. Pretty solid. But I'm actually wow we are we are getting some good I mean look look at this profile picture. That profile picture is amazing. I mean that is some that is some dank AF meme action that Morgan MLG men's got going on there anyway. So TLDR the original source is heist.de there's an FMA3 related bug in Ryzen CPUs which causes a hard system lock when running certain FMA3 workloads so the problem was replicated across all three R7 processors released so far and tested on a variety of motherboards it all started over on the hardware bot forums but basically there's a BIOS fix confirmed for the issue AMD is well aware of it and Digital Trends reported a first-hand talk with AMD about it which you can check out at the link that I'm gonna go ahead and drop in the Twitch chat and this is a fun fact for those of you who don't check out the forum thread that's linked under the archive of the WAN show regularly but you can find all the original links to the source articles for what we're talking about in the forum thread that we link underneath. More Ryzen news while Luke works on that. Original source here is overclock3d.net let's go ahead and pull that up and have a look at this. So, AMD is rumored to have a 16 core Ryzen part that will reportedly run at 3.1 to 3.6 GHz max boost. I mean cooling a 180 watt part is pretty much guaranteed to require a water cooling solution of some sort but I think this is pretty cool because when AMD did this when they pulled out like an essentially an overclocked out of the box CPU the 9590 that required water cooling it shipped with a water cooler because there's no way you're gonna cool that otherwise. It looked like an act of desperation because the stupid thing was clocked like marginally higher than the air-cooled one so you could tell they were just they were pushing the architecture to the limit only because they had nothing else that could compete. Now now that Ryzen is a thing and it doesn't suck well now they're just pushing it to the limit because freaking YOLO man that that I can respect that I'm down for. So let's see if there's anything else that we that we know about it. So this blah blah blah Ryzen engineering sample so it would offer performance similar to two R7 1700s. It's rumored to be coming on AMD's X399 socket though that is not necessarily the final name and the word on the street is this new socket would be aimed at high-end PC users who require a large number of strong cores for productivity. So this sounds like a like an enthusiast workstation I I would love for them to bring back 4x4. That would be freaking amazing very that would be very cool. Okay so do we have any idea if this is working like what are we even plugged into is that oh okay so I can I can hear me but I don't know if I'm gonna hear them yet that's that's what I'm to understand okay. Oh you know what I think I do know how this is supposed to work so what I'm gonna do is I'm gonna hand off this topic to you from level one text while I go get another piece that we're gonna need before our special jet guests can join us. Okay so I actually haven't seen they are somewhat standing by yes. So I need to post this in the doc first but this is actually super cool so level one text you guys know Wendel he split off or whatever don't worry about that stuff but level one text has the six fastest I thought it was the first for a second there but anyways they have the six fastest 1800x build overall of any GPU type. This is the fastest build that uses a single 1080 Ti. Oh there we go yeah okay so other people have done it with like a bajillion cards but they were mainly showing off the processor so this is on level one text site if I just switch to my screen real quick. Yeah sorry. There we go no worries. That would have been smarter. No it's cool. The fastest Ryzen 1800x system in the world that's with one GTX 1080 Ti which I think is fair for them saying fastest Ryzen 1800x system because their whole point is that they're talking about the processor and the only guys that they didn't beat are guys that used many GPUs when they used one and SLI is kind of silly dilly anyways so who really cares. This is them showing off their scores. This is them showing off the system. What the heck they did it with an air cooler. I did not expect that. It's an NHD 15 which is like a beast machine air cooler but I still didn't expect it. You have got to be kidding. You can disable the. Seriously Windows, serious I do not have time for that right now. You can disable your Windows update service. And cancel the shutdown. But it's annoying. The thing is if you don't do that it's going to be stuck on restarting for like a bajillion years. That being said if we do the call do you have anything to show on screen? So what I just stopped the service. I've never actually tried to stop it. It's never been quite this. It might try to restart itself so you're probably going to have to go to the Windows update thing and turn it off through. It's just killing the service. It might restart the service. Reasons why I'm no longer using Windows 10. Reasons why I'm working on it. I said it was going to take me forever and then people are constantly tweeting me being like oh we're going to see a video about that soon. No it's going to take me a really long time but I do want to get my Linux slash Windows gaming rig thing up. What the actual crap. Okay you know what I just don't even. I just don't even. Okay so what I believe will happen now is if I set this playback device. Mine though right? No I don't think you can use yours. Are you doing the call? Okay hold on. Hold on. Okay just a sec. Oh oh sorry that was probably pretty loud. I hope people heard that ding. If they heard that ding then we're good. Did you hear the ding? Did everybody hear the ding? Can you take me off the. Oh yes I can. Yes I can. There we go. Okay. Did anybody hear the ding? Did they hear the ding? They heard the chime. They heard the chime. Okay we're good. Okay so I got to go on Hangouts and I got to add them right? Yes. Okay. Paul is waiting. Oh okay. Oh that's a hint. That's a hint. Sorry. The one that starts with the P. Yeah. I'm working on it. The PP one. PP got it. Okay. You know what? Oh you know what we should do? This. Where? Oh seriously? Seriously? Oh okay. Okay. Okay. Click to invite. Yes. Yes I'm sending an invitation. Holy crap. Okay well while I wait for him to reply to the invitation we've actually got our sponsor spots. This might be the most disorganized WAN show we've done in quite some time. Yes. Alright so first up is Moss. Moss Spring Cables. Oh wow. They have an entire like kit of like everything. What is all this stuff? And I think that bag is from them too. What is all this stuff? So I. Fridge pack. What is a fridge pack? See I asked the exact same thing and then Colton looked at me and went uh this is why I'm not on WAN show. So I never actually figured that part out. Okay. But I'm excited. Okay so this is the Moss pack. Power extended. What does this do? Ah yep and that is not in our notes. I'm gonna go ahead and assume that this is a battery bank backpack. Which would be. Or maybe it's just one that has like a spot for their stuff. I. I hate Colton with every ounce of my being. And that has never been more true than it is now in this moment. Never been more true. Okay the Moss pack. Plug in your backpack to charge all your devices. It has a built in removable Moss reach extension cable. Okay I found it. So that's the extension cable. Okay so the extension cable just come. Okay so you. Okay this is cool. So you undo the zipper here and you pull out the extension cable. So you plug that into the wall. And then you've actually got two USBs and an AC outlet. So if everything's plugged into this doodad which hides in the back laptop compartment here then boom. You just charge everything with a single cable. Okay so that's pretty straightforward. That's neat. What else they got? They've got uh. I don't know what the may notes are. These are fridge magnets. Can you read the notes? Oh there are notes under the other notes. Thanks guys. Well I figured it out. Luke helped. We got this. It includes. Okay okay that's. Okay okay you know what Colton. It's a water resistant water bottle pocket that holds up to a one liter water bottle. Yep internal cable management straps and sleeves to keep your cables neat and tidy. Also that water bottle thing is actually more important than you might think. Is storing water bottles in your bag while you're traveling and you have a laptop and a phone and a switch and a game boy and whatever else in there. This is from my last trip. Do you see this um. All the water damage. This white mark here. That was from the pressure of the airplane going up. Ah. Busting the seals of my water bottle. Ah. Not fun. So that's a thing. Yeah. Um okay cool. So the backpack's pretty cool. What else they got here? So there's the. There's internal cable management and stuff in there as well. This is one of their actual spring cables. They have a lifetime warranty on their cables with anodized aluminum heads with a steel spring reinforcement to prevent unwanted bending. That's right there on the end. Oh okay. So it goes back. So it's a tension relief. Yeah. So it doesn't break. And it also pushes itself back to where it wants to be. Okay cool. So these are cable organizers. So you stick them to anything. Oh cool. And then they like. Oh cool. So without using your wire. That's a nifty way of doing that. I'm down with that. So that's pretty cool. And they come with little adhesive backing things. So you can use these like on your desk or whatever. So it comes with a pack of those. Okay so I understand what this sponsor is. Now it's like cables and like cable organization stuff. Okay they've got HDMI cables. They've got lightning cables. They've got these organizer things. Neat. So you can check out Moss products and have the same you know voyage of discovery that we did. They also have this like really nice leather phone case and wallet and ID and cash holding thing. I think that's called a phone case. But it has all the other stuff too. That's good. So you can check them out over at mossorganizer.com slash Linus. Alright our next sponsor is one that we are quite a bit more familiar with. And that we use these products every day and we aren't discovering that they exist for the first time right here now in this moment. iFixit my friends. iFixit has fantastic guides and fantastic tools so that you can fix your hardware. You might say they have pro tech tools. They have pro tech tools. Yes the pro tech tool kit is a professional tech tool. Thank you for that. They've got everything from their 64 bit driver kit to their suction cups for taking off displays to their spudgers for prying at things to their. Which like having good spudgers is underrated. Yeah and the new ones are amazing. And the new blue pry tools are like flipping amazing as well. Those blue pry tools is probably my personal favorite improvement in the new set. So anyway the big news here for iFixit is not that they have great tools or great guides on their website that you can use to save yourself some money. But it's that Canadians can now get cheaper shipping on iFixit tools. They're available now through Amazon.ca so you can go check that out. If you're not Canadian though you can go to iFixit.com slash Linus and use code WANSHOW at the checkout to save five bucks on a purchase of ten dollars or more. What are you doing? That okay. So moving away from our last sponsor spot for just a moment here. That light is Brandon's fault. I was like I will give you a budget to buy lights. And he's like no building this is better. And I'm like do you have any idea how heavy that's going to be? Brandon do you have any idea how heavy that is? Yeah. Brandon. You know how pinner Dennis is? Dennis is working out. He's bulking up. You can be working out. You can be actively working out and you can also be pinner. Fair but he's bulking up. He's working on it. Anyway moving on to our last sponsor ZOTAC. ZOTAC I mean what do they not make? So we've got a bunch of different stuff that they want us to feature here. Water and I would appreciate that. Because I feel like they'd have really like modular cool water bottles. You can go get some water. I can finish this without your interruption I think. So they've got everything from the EN10. The EN10 series is one of the smallest VR ready gaming mini PCs available. It's only 8.27 by 7 by 2.45 inches and can get up to a Wow it has a configuration available with up to a GTX 10 70. Your VR GO is a backpack that's based on sort of the same idea of building a super compact lightweight gaming machine. But this one goes on your back with up to two hours of playtime with two hot swappable batteries for nearly endless VR. And so it actually has like a third supplementary battery so that you can hot swap them. You want me to put this down? Over there. Over there? Yeah it's going through the mic. Oh it's going through oh I see. Thanks Don. It can be used in desktop mode with a detachable backpack strap and one that we actually covered very recently freaking cool is the GTX 1080 mini. The world's most compact GTX 1080 at only 8.3 inches long. Now some people were complaining about our thumbnail on that one. They were saying you didn't cut the GTX 1080. Oh. Come on guys it was like a visual gag. Yeah. It was like a nice because it's being made. And I wasn't the point wasn't that I was cutting it even the point was that I was crunching it in. Yeah. Because I'm not going to like cut off part of the like that's not cutting the PCB is not going to help me making it more compact like they did. It's. Anyway cool card though right? Yes very. Okay so if you're looking to build the most powerful compact machine or just buy one Zotac is an awesome place to go and you can check out their products on Newegg today. I'm excited to the for the next time that I meet up with those guys because I know a bunch of the guys that work at Zotac and ladies and see what they think about the beginning where I roast them for like not giving a proper use case for it at all. And then the entire video being like giving it a proper use case. Yeah. They had no idea I was going to do that. That wasn't a collaborative effort with them at all. No I think a lot of people assume that we're like you know working with manufacturers on some things when really we're working against them. It was sort of a giant troll. Okay. Because I love those guys. So. Okay. I think I figured out what the issue was. It was not it was not the headphones. Oh no. Okay. So I think we are ready for this video call. I hope wait I don't see I don't know if I see an option for video. Okay. Yeah. We're doing a thing. Oh okay. Okay. I guess that's the video we're sending. I guess I guess. Well no no we should we should see them in a moment. The Google effects and draw apps will no longer work after April 25th. You're probably going to want to maximize this or at the very least minimize what's behind it. Yes I can maximize this I hope. Oh. Oh okay. Hold on. You guys are muted. You guys are muted right now. Luke do you want to pull the stream up just on your laptop. Sure. Okay. Yes. I think you need to enable the mic on your laptop. Yeah. Yeah. I got this. I got this. I got this. But none of your sound is coming. Okay. Hold on. Hold on. How about now. Okay. Okay. Here we go. We are screen sharing. Have we checked Twitch chat. Can they hear them. So far no one is saying that they can't. So right now. Okay. May I ask as professional video creators why it is that you guys might have opted to film vertically. Hangouts would not let me. Yeah. It's more organized. Hey. There we go. Okay. Hold on. Now I got to move us out of the. Okay. Okay. So we're framed in the bottom left of the frame. So if you guys could go kind of top right. That would be swell. Yeah. Other right. Other right. Other right. Okay. You know what. Just cover Kyle. Let's just cover Kyle because I hate that guy. Okay. Perfect. Okay. So. So we have. We have a super crazy exciting announcement that we. Damn it. Kyle. Okay. I'm going to put us like down here. Yeah. Now we can see you guys. Okay. You're not doing anything. Exactly. You're not doing anything. Oh. Useless. Oh. I think you're useful. Okay. But. I'm holding the front. We're going to find out. We're going to find out exactly how useful you guys are pretty soon. So I. You know what. I want you guys to do it. I want you guys to do it. But what's going on next week. Next week. We're going to have. That's. Well that's part of that's afterwards. We're going to. We're going to be. We're going to be. We're going to be. We're going to be. We're going to be. There goes the track down. Yes. Yes. Yeah that's right. Okay. We're going the goblin has been thrown down. Oh we're going down are we. Oh. Yeah. Because if if if I thought if I thought we were going down don't you think I might not have challenged you guys on your own turf. If I. Obviously you have you have a little bit too much confidence I think at this point. If I. Let's try your turn. It's been around here. See that right there? What is that America? American flag? America? That's the world's second tallest thermometer. What do you guys have? What do you have? What do we have? Well, we have a country that doesn't get so hot that we're concerned about the temperature all the time. Actually, we're pretty concerned. We're just the other direction. Yeah, well that's why when we go down, when it goes down, next week, you guys are just gonna burn. You're gonna get here and you're just gonna melt under pressure. Melt under pressure. You don't even understand how melting works, do you? Because when you apply pressure to ice, it melts. Yeah, you're right, but I've proved Kyle's point there. You might not understand it, but I'm gonna witness it next week. Alright, so thanks guys. You guys are on mobile data right now, right? Yeah, it's okay though. It's Paul's phone, it's fine. Okay. Do we even know what... Okay, alright. Do we know the terms? Okay, so basically, here's what's going down. I'm going to play music because Steve started the car. I'll spell this out for the audience. I'm gonna kinda lay down what's going on here. Luke and I are traveling down to LA, and we are gonna be taking on Paul and Kyle in a two-on-two team battle. And this is really annoying guys, you're not funny. Okay, so we are gonna be taking on Paul and Kyle in a two-on-two team battle to see who is gonna be the ultimate scrapyard war champion. That's right, my friends. We don't know exactly what the budget's gonna be or exactly what the challenge is gonna be, but it's gonna be a thing and it's gonna be crazy. Are we just deciding on the spot? I'm not sure, I'll think about it this weekend. I've been really busy. Play or we'll play. Alright, so thanks guys. We're gonna get back to the WAN Show and enjoy the rest of your road trip. Thanks everybody. Enjoy Canada. Have fun in Canada. Bye. Bye guys. Bye. Okay, we can ditch these now. Alright, yeah, let's get rid of these and... Okay. So yeah, we don't know the... I was actually wondering last night. I was like, huh, what are the terms? What are we actually doing this time? I have no idea. We're doing a team battle. That is what we're doing. And just in case you guys didn't get it from that, Linus and I are on the same team. Yes. Yeah, so this will be the first time that's happened since like extremely early Channel Superfunds. Yeah, in four seasons of Scrapyard Wars, Luke and I have always competed against each other. And I have always lost, so if we could win this time, that'd be pretty cool. You haven't always lost. I believe I... Oh no, I didn't. That's true. You won... The water cooling one. The water cooling one, yeah. Yeah, you shouldn't have. No, neither of us should have won that one. Neither of us should have won. Everybody should have lost. Yeah. I thought I had the last one. That was really close. What was the point spread? Oh, I don't remember. It was like half a point or like one point or something like that. Like it was ridiculously close. But... Either way. You haven't lost every one, but my record is still pretty good. Yes. Three and one. Yes. I'm very pleased with my record. Yeah. Here's a question. How should we decide who gets who? Oh wait, no. Oh yeah, I got confused. I confused myself. Because like when we did it with Bob and Rod, we decided... We decided later. Yeah. No, it's you and me versus Paul. Oh man, this is going to be crazy. The craziest part I think is going to, like for us at least, and this should probably translate to the show, is we're not on home turf anymore. I don't like... Craigslist is not a thing everywhere. It's very much a thing down there. Eastern Canada, not a thing though. Yeah, that's true. But like aside from that, like up here there's like red flag deals. Yeah. There's like freaky. And kajiji and whatever. We have no idea exactly what we're walking into. I'm just familiar with like when you're looking on something like Craigslist, the city name and like knowing how far away that actually is. Where is Pasadena? I don't... I've been there. I don't really know where it is in relation to things though. I was in a car and then I showed up in Pasadena. Traffic is going to be a thing. Yeah. Like we're going to be in LA, so traffic is going to be tough. Yeah. It's going to be... It's going to be... It's going to be cray cray. Anyway, that was the big news. The big news for today. We also have other news because I think... Timeline should we give them when we're doing it? Oh yeah. It's going to be a long time until it's done. Because like editing for these things takes forever. There's so many cameras that are running a huge percentage of the time and it has to be edited like a show and each one of the episodes are super long. We kind of sort of want to be done like kind of all of them before we launch. Yes. What's the idea? Is that Ed? No, that's Dennis. Oh, that is Ed. Hey Ed, what's the plan for the Scrapyard Wars season five editing? Both of them. Probably next year. Next year? A full 18 episodes. 18 episodes. 18 episodes. You know what? Get out of here. We're also going to have a Kickstarter for the movie. Oh, Kickstarter for Scrapyard Wars the movie. Very nice. What would that even be? What would Scrapyard... Okay, bye. Thank you. What would Scrapyard Wars the movie be? Character progression. Anyways, the editing is going to take a while, but we're filming it starting Monday. Starting Monday. In all seriousness, Ed takes about a week to edit per episode and what we'd really like to do is cut together the entire season at once and then find episodic splits so we don't end up with kind of slower episodes and then kind of like really exciting ones so we can space out the moments appropriately. It'll probably be three parts. If it ends up being completely bananas, it could be four. But probably three. Very unlikely. Yeah. And like, just release one thing, it would end up being like three and a half hours or something stupid. No. Well, 45 minute episodes. Are they? So an hour and a half. Oh, that's right. He did really long episodes last time, didn't he? So like an hour and a half to two hours and 15 minutes for three episodes. So long and short of it is- Three hours for- That's not happening. It's not happening for a lot of reasons. Number one is that very long format videos do not perform as well on YouTube. So we would be shooting ourselves in the foot for really no good reason. Number two is that Scrapyard Wars requires an entire team of us, in this case, to go travel somewhere for an entire week to film. Then it requires many weeks of our editor's time to cut it together. And Float Plane Week. And- And- YAH! There will be a one week early access window on Scrapyard Wars for Float Plane Club. You ready Boiler? I'm not. We'll figure it out. Yeah, so I'm pretty sure that Float Plane Club is going to be experiencing some new found popularity right around the time that these start coming out. People are like, that's BS. It's like, no, objectively that is not BS. It is objectively very expensive for us to produce. So we are getting multiple episodes out of it and that's how it's going to work. It sounds like YouTube's not going to have content. Yeah. Yeah, that's right. If you didn't hear this announcement you wouldn't even know until the first episode launched on YouTube. But you did. And then it would show up every week after that anyways. Yep. But we've planted the seed. So it's there. I've planted a few seeds in my day. Minimum three. I can't anymore. But you know how it is. Alright. I don't yet, but I plant it. Twitter. Original article here is from Reuters. Twitter explores a subscription based option for the first time. Wow. So they're considering whether to build a premium version of the popular tweet deck interface aimed at professionals. Raising the possibility that it could collect subscription fees from some users for the first time. Because even with 319 million users, isn't that crazy? That is crazy. Twitter has failed to attract enough in advertising revenue to turn a profit. So they're now conducting a survey to assess the interest in a new, more enhanced version of tweet deck. Personally, I might be willing to pay for team management tools, but they would have to not be trash. That would be really good. We tried playing around with Hootsuite, and like, honestly, there was nobody in this building who was like, this is a good idea. Let's keep using this. Sorry Hootsuite, we know you're like Vancouver locals. Yeah. And all that, but we didn't like it. It might be for some teams, it's not for our team. Speaking of planting seeds, the original article here is from ctvnews.ca. Imagine a world where there could be a smartphone app that would let you test the quality of your sperm. Okay, so what we need now is like a weird social network based off of this, where you can like compete in quality against other people. So you want to gamify sperm quality. And then you can make a like Tinder style based app, where it just shows a picture and a number for their quality level. Okay, so in a nutshell, there's an optical attachment that connects to a smartphone and a thankfully disposable device for loading a semen sample. The cost of the materials used to... The smartphone based device detected abnormal semen samples based on WHO thresholds of sperm concentration and mobility with an accuracy of 98%. And the cost of the materials used to assemble it was $4.45. So basically this is like a way of bringing low cost sperm analysis to the world. And social networks based on it. Wow, no. Make it. Wow, no. Hazy, teak, one of you, website idea, go for gold. Alright, so if you felt like the Weasley's clock in Harry Potter was something that you needed in your life, Google has some amazing news for you. The original article here is from...am I allowed to say this? Wow. The Hindu dot com. Sure. I guess so. I thought that was like a racist thing. I don't think so. Oh, okay. I don't really know though because I'm behind the times on like politically approved terms. I don't know what's politically correct or incorrect. It changes so fast. I know. Google Maps users will soon be able to broadcast their movements to friends and family. Google believes the new tool will be a more convenient way for people to let someone know where they are without having to text or call them. It could cause friction in relationships if one partner demands to know where the other one is at all times. That's when you break up with them. Or if parents insist their teenagers turn on location sharing options before they go out, that's unfortunate. They're your parents. I don't know what to say to you. I've got people saying Hindu is a religion. No, Hinduism is a religion. That's different. Apparently, Hindu is a person who follows the religion of Hinduism. Okay. I thought it was like a derogatory thing. Go show you what I know. Yeah, I didn't think so either. All I said was I don't know. PC terms change fast. But I've never heard of it as a derogatory term. Ed is just judging me. What can I help you with, Ed? You only need to shoot one. Okay. The busy bomb wants you to go. Okay. Dell. Dell has put their 32-inch 8K display on sale. Did I hang out this to you? I was going to ask, do we have one lined up? Yes, we do. Okay. I thought so. I saw this news and I was like, we've got to have one coming. We would basically get on our knees and do whatever it is Dell asked us to do to get our hands on one of these. Are we going to remake 8K gaming? Because you can do 8K gaming on one native monitor instead of splitting it across bezels and all that kind of stuff. I've actually got a few things in mind for this. What if you get four of them? I don't think they'll send me. I don't think there's a system on earth that could run four of them. Actually, we could make one. Okay. Hold on a minute. Let me think for a second here. We would need. Okay. So basically, okay, okay, okay. Let's back up a little bit. 32 inches, 8K, now for sale, five grand. Don't worry about it. Yeah, that's right. To drive it, you need, I believe it's DisplayPort 1.3. So there's that. Let me have a look here. I want to double check that. So the inputs, it has two DisplayPort 1.4s. And the way you hook it up is with... Overall of the 8K, et cetera. How do you hook it up, et cetera, et cetera, et cetera. Okay. Dang it, Ian. He skimmed over it. So I can't remember exactly. Yeah, it doesn't say. Okay, I can't remember if two DisplayPort 1.3s or two DisplayPort 1.4s are required. But what I do know is that you will need... There are no consumer graphics cards right now that support either of those standards. So there's that. So you're going to need a Pascal-based Quadro. Okay. So one of those... We only need four of those. Yeah, so we only need four of those. We would basically need P6000s, four of them. Okay. Which are like $5,000 graphics cards in their own right. And each of them would be able to drive one display. I met a guy from PNY at PAX East. I know people from PNY. They still won't send us anything. You guys... And my system restarted. That's okay though because we've got Luke's screen. But that would be sick. And I feel like people should get behind that. Okay, so you think people should tell Dell and PNY to send us four each. Yes. So a $40,000 display and graphics card setup. That's literally half as much as some other videos that you've made. That's true. That is a very true thing that you said. And I will not dispute it. Okay, I think we should try to do this. That would actually be really cool. I would want to watch that. If I saw that on a title of a video, I'd be like, you know what? Yeah, I'll click on that. I'll watch this guy play Counter-Strike or something. At 16K. Yeah. Oh man. You should do a test to see how close people have to get before they can think that they see it. Well, I've seen it. It's crazy. Like, it's bananas. They had a desktop wallpaper with like a bazillion clocks and you could like read them all. And they were all like this big. That's ridiculous. Okay, want to move on to our next topic because I don't have a computer working. Because Windows 10. Thank you, Windows 10. I'm like dead in the water here. I'm trying to, a lot of these are like... Look at this bull crap. It's still just getting ready. Why wasn't it getting ready before it made me not able to use my computer? Like, couldn't you get ready before you interrupt my stuff? So GameStop expects the Switch to be hard to find all the way through 2017. This is an Ars Technica article. Apparently there was a GameStop sales call. So this is something that happens when you have like shareholders and stuff and you have public calls where like you talk about how well you're doing and whatnot. And they talked about the Switch launch. And they were talking about different things that sold with the Switch and how much demand there is for the Switch. And if you've heard any news about that from retailers, apparently this is one of the best console launches in like a while. Like better than the Xboxes and PlayStation's console launches. Which is interesting, but I don't know if you can take it 100% because stock was out. So they're getting a lot of calls being like, oh, can we get it? And they're out of stock. They're not actual sales numbers, right? So and people aren't taking unlimited pre-orders. Oh, I don't know like any store that's doing unlimited pre-orders. Just because they're not sure when they're going to get anything. Yeah. So this seems to be a supply issue potentially rather than a demand issue. Yeah. But that being said, there is a lot of genuine interest in the Switch. And they started talking about some fairly interesting things as well, in my opinion, which is like the I think the average amount of things bought along with just the Switch console was four. Really? So like people bought a lot of stuff. And surely it wasn't games because there aren't any. And there was almost a one to one parity between people that bought a Switch and people that bought Breath of the Wild. Yeah. Wow. So like everyone getting the Switch is getting it for the Breath of the Wild. That's probably a good thing because one to Switch is sort of not great. I covered that in my video. Yeah. OK. So we're expecting supply issues all the way through 2017, which is not that surprising. Where is it? This explains why our... Oh, it's 5.5 products. The average Switch buyer at GameStop also bought 5.5 related products. That's outstanding. Including both Switch games and accessories along with the system. They're picking up anything they can. Yeah. Breath of the Wild was almost a one to one result. Every Switch customer buys a copy of that game, essentially. That's ridiculous. Well, good for Nintendo. I really wasn't sure on this one, to be perfectly honest with you. I think the thing is with Nintendo, you really can't be sure about like any of them. Right. And then just who knows? Because they just do weird stuff and then maybe it works and then maybe it doesn't. Yeah. And they have the money to just do that because they're Nintendo. And everyone, every time it goes bad, everyone will be like, oh my God, Nintendo's going to go bankrupt. They don't realize how much like insane amounts of money they have in the bank. And it's like, oh, OK. They're fine. Speaking of game companies that like don't get it, Ubisoft. So the original poster here was someone on the forum because it's not in the dock. And I have it open on my phone because my computer is still restarting. But according to an article from Shacknews.com, Ubisoft came out and said, when a fan on Reddit calculated that collecting every piece of cosmetic content like outfits and emotes and for honor would cost a whopping seven hundred dollars, they said that we never had an intention for you to unlock everything in the game. That's so stupid. So how? Yeah, I was just. You beat me to the punch. I was going to ask, how does that make a completionist like you feel? Actually, like very specifically frustrated because you're right. That really annoys me. I've won. I've one hundred percented Black Flag multiple times. And Ubisoft is already really bad for like just putting random crap all over the map and needing you to go collect it all. And then someone like me will actually go do it because they're stupid. I will. I've got more. I've got more for you. For us, that doesn't really make any sense. We kill me. We applied RPG mechanics on top of a fighting game in a PvP environment. So? Let's say in World of Warcraft, you would never try to unlock everything. So many people do! For all the characters. They're called achievement hunters. Stop it. Same thing in any MOBA. There, do you feel better now? No. Oh my God, there are so many people in WoW that go for all the achievements. Loremaster is one of the most ridiculous ones where you have to complete just like all the quests everywhere. And I know people that just do that. I know people that will play one expansion behind because they don't want to join like a raiding guild and stuff. But they want to complete everything in the achievement book that they can. So when the expansion passes, some of the stuff in the achievement book goes away. And they'll try to get as much of that as they can because then you get feats of strength. Like, oh, you can't do this anymore, but you did in the past, so it's called the feat of strength. Or you just go back to the raids and do them by yourself or the small group of people. And then complete all the challenges and get those achievement points. Those people exist! There's a lot of them! Man, you're so upset. That's great. It's annoying! And like, if you really, really like a game, it's fun to just like, every once in a while you just want to jump in that game and play. For whatever reason. And having a goal of like, you know what, I've beat this game before, but I just want to kind of tool around and do some cool stuff. Having a bunch of stuff there is fine. That's cool. Being like, yeah, no, it's stupid and it'll cost you $700 and no one's going to complete it ever, screw you. That's not a cool way to do things. Alright, you know what is cool though? Android O! Oh! A million new settings. A million new settings and an awesome snooze feature according to Ars Technica. So the developer preview is here. And there's lots of new, many, many of which are boring changes. So you can do a system-wide notification snore. If you don't want to deal with the notification right now, just pull it to the side a bit to unveil a new clock icon and then it'll be snoozed for 15 minutes. You can tap on a menu to increase it to 30 minutes or an hour. Okay. The top of the notification panel has been reworked yet again. The triple function quick settings buttons are back. So tapping on the icon does one thing, tapping on the text does a second function, and long pressing the icon does a third thing. So, okay. Ambient display is a low-power notification mode that kicks in when the screen is off. So when the notification comes in or when the device is moved or tapped on, the screen will light up briefly with a white-on-black UI to show you new notifications. Am I crazy balls or did that already exist? Because I even have a stock pixel. No, tapping doesn't do anything. Moving it does. And if I get a notification... So moving it gives you that. And I guess it's slightly colored? No. No, it's black and white. The settings app has been totally reworked. What I want to know is if they figured out why my phone gets so hot in my pocket when I'm not doing anything. And that's not in our summary here, but maybe they finally figured that out. That would be super cool. Even the pixel does it from time to time. Yeah. Yep. I've experienced that with pretty much every Android phone. You know what Android phone doesn't do that though? The iPhone. See, I lied. It was like I was tricking you because it's not an Android phone. Yeah. I was expecting you to say like the Galaxy. A dead one. Or the Nexus S. Yeah, yeah. A dead one. It's not going to get hot if it can't. There we go. You know what kind of men don't tell stories. Alright, so that's pretty much it for the WAN Show. Thank you guys for tuning in. We will see you again next week. Same bat time, same bat channel. I probably won't be here, but Luke probably will. Yeah, so what's... So yeah, I'll be back. But you're not... You will be back. So I'm actually staying down for a second collab, this time with Austin. Yeah. Austin is getting like Petabyte Project Mini. Okay. And we're going to be working with him on that. How is it a Petabyte project then? Well, because it's not a Petabyte, but it's a lot of storage. Okay. And it's a project. Is it half a pet? No, it's not half. Okay. Yeah, but it's a lot though. Okay. Alright, so we'll see you guys again next week. Bye. Intro. I'm back. What do you think are the odds that Maus ever sponsors this again? We eventually got through. Did we get there? I think so. It was a voyage of discovery. We're still alive.
