 So stay here and wait. And yeah, is the camera supposed to be that zoomed out? We seem super far away. Welcome to the bro show. The bro show. Yeah, so hopefully the audio is not terrible. I'm gonna wait. Hopefully someone will tell me if it's horrible. One of the cool things that you might have seen or might not have seen is that I'm mobile. I can just like go around. We have chairs that have really things which basically makes this work. It's perfect! I love you guys. Welcome to the intro. It's not working. All right intro intro intro Intro yes Haha audio is out of sync. Awesome. That's good. Linda.com! Linda! Learn all the things, all the stuff at Squarespace.com. Make all the things about the website and stuff. Actually Linda.com is great. You can learn a whole bunch of different stuff. And Squarespace.com is great. You can make a whole bunch of different websites using their template-y things. Come back here now. I can even tell the audio is out of sync here. Wow. If you guys would like to see it, just say what you're gonna say and then mount it afterwards. So hey! Hey, this is a good show! Oh man. So the video is out of sync still? I don't know dude. Should I turn up the volume? I can do that. The video is delayed here. So I think it's the capture card or something. Cool! I don't know. Super out of sync. I'm just hanging out while everyone freaks out. I wanna run away! Okay, so I don't know. Why is there...there's no delay set up on anything. So that's not good. Do do do do do. That's probably a good idea. Did all the camera people just leave? They did. When we're having camera problems? Yep. That's what camera people do. They just leave you when you need them. You just can't trust them. Okay, well... I don't know. Turn V-sync on? I wish. I wish. Wouldn't that be great? Do do do do do. Delay the audio track. That's not a bad idea. But I don't know how delayed the video track is. Wanna make a guess? 3. 3 milliseconds. That's really fast. Maybe more milliseconds. 30. 30 milliseconds? That seems like a lot. Okay. Let's try 20. That's the wrong keyboard. Let's try 20. 20. Okay. Wasn't the audio already delayed though? So delaying it, wouldn't that increase the issue? No, I think the video is delayed. I think the audio is on time. So if we delay the audio, then they should mess up. Gotcha. How's it working, guys? Did that not work at all? 300. Wow. Audio delay. 300. That seems huge, but we're now trying 300. Where's Justin? Isn't Justin our official stream watcher? Talk to me about the things. Okay. So I think maybe... I just tried 300. I don't really work in milliseconds. Some people are saying a little bit more, so maybe I'll try 400? 400, yeah. Thanks for working with me on this Twitch chat. We're basically diagnosing everything together. So instead of watching Tech Tips, what you guys can actually do is just tune into the WAN show, and then you can learn your own Tech Tips. From helping us fix things. We're crowdsourcing the fixes. This is Kickstarter, but live, and you don't have to donate. Exactly. It's crowd-sourced Tech Tips. So we just went to 400. So let me know what you guys think of that. Justin, I'd like some input from you as well. We need help from internal sources and external sources. So we're going to do a live stream. Okay. So I'm going to try to get some input from you as well. We need help from internal sources and external sources to optimize the throughput of our audio and video. 500. 500? Okay. How about... 500. We've got 500 here. We're going to try 500. People are saying 420 by Linus. 420 YOLO, 360. I was going to say if Linus was here, he'd put it at 420. That's something he would do. That's something he would do. That's something he would do. So we got said 9000. That would probably work. Over 9000 would probably work. 9000 is kind of... You're trying but you're not fully there. If I had like... I was going to say a super nice car, I would probably say it at 9000. $1. That's not a super nice car. Your car is like double that. Oh, Lord. Okay. Okay, we're going to change it to 600. We're going to keep jumping to hundreds. Then we can dial it back a little bit. We're getting there, boys. We're now at 600. Thank you guys for sticking with us. This has been fun. This has been good. The cool part was that when I had to do the sponsor spots, the image was up. So it doesn't even matter if the audio was delayed. As I was saying, we could just do the whole thing like this. And then we're flawless. Except if I like laugh and do that. That's true. It's fun watching a delay. It is fun watching the delay. I did that while we were spinning in our chairs. You guys can't see that. I'm sorry. It's pretty fun. It's too much? Pull it back. Is that right, Justin? Too much? We're going to wait for some input from Justin. But I'm thinking 580. Might be where we need to go. Way too much. Less than 500. 550. 550? You're slightly ahead now. 550. We're getting it narrowed in. We will get there. Cool. By 6. We're only half an hour late because of misplaced equipment. And then we're going to be an hour late after that because of equipment not working well. So there we go. I want to run away. So topics that we have. Netflix is going to be dropping thousands of titles. Unified Weapons Master. They're going to have a high tech gladiatorial combat. You can't really see what I'm saying right now. I feel like that dude from Tool Time. Yes. He's standing behind the fence. He's over the fence. I think you actually have to go higher. 75? I screwed up when I was listening to it. So over? Try 650. That's a lot of delay. That's a lot of those milliseconds. Go check it again. We also have the introduction of GDDR5X. Apparently GDDR5X WAN. Although I'm pretty sure that was just me typing that in properly. Then after that we have new federal requirements on cell phone surveillance. So that should be pretty cool. I have to be very animated with my eyes. Because you can't see my mouth. No. I'm going to have to go to the bathroom. I'm going to have to go to the bathroom. I'm going to have to go to the bathroom. I'm going to have to go to the bathroom. You can't see my mouth. No. Moving forward, I need to move down to one of my topics. So give me a second here. I just need to keep talking like this. Because then you can't really feel the delay. Actually I should show Justin the delay. That would probably help him figure that out. So I'm actually going to go through my first topic. We're just going to try to live troubleshoot this with Justin in the other room while we go. So yes, Netflix is dropping thousands of titles. Apparently they're not renewing their deal with distributor Epix. So basically how Netflix gets all their titles is going to be a lot of work. So yes, Netflix is dropping thousands of titles. So basically how Netflix gets all their titles is they have to have a deal with the distributor of these videos who would also distribute them to different cable companies and whatnot. So that you could do video on demand. Netflix's deal with Epix was reportedly worth about a billion dollars. That's a good scene. It was reportedly worth about a billion dollars. It will run until the end of September 2015. So yes, you don't have much time at all if you want to watch some of these movies and stuff. Chief Content Officer Ted Sarandos, hopefully I'm saying that correctly, said while many of these movies are popular, they're also widely available on cable and other subscription platforms. At the same time, they are as Netflix and subject to the same drawn out licensing periods. Add 300? It's like a 50% increase. 650. So as we're talking about Netflix, they're trying to move to more of their own original content, which is kind of super hard to blame them because the original content is doing extremely well. I loved House of Cards. House of Cards was awesome. Daredevil was really cool. Have you watched Daredevil? I haven't watched the entirety. I think I've watched about three quarters. Yeah. There's a few like I felt there's a couple actors in Daredevil which weren't like super amazing, but the show overall was actually really good. But yeah, they're going to be moving towards a more their content focused platform, which isn't the reason why I got Netflix, but might make me keep Netflix. Now, I don't know. I know very little about Hulu, but Hulu is picking up the deal that Netflix is going to be leaving behind. They're trying to kind of push their way into that void of you're saying the reason why you got Netflix. Maybe that'll pull more people towards Hulu. I know Hulu is not quite as successful as Netflix, but yeah, they're going to be picking up all those shows that you're going to be losing from Netflix. So if you really want those shows, if that's a problem for you, Hulu could be an answer. Haven't heard too many great things about Hulu to be completely honest, but Netflix is definitely the kingpin. But again, they have so many of their own original shows and they're going to keep it rolling. Orange is the New Black wasn't a good show for me, but it was extremely highly rated. Yeah. People really like that show. I like season one. I wasn't super into the season two or three. Season two I was like, all right, they're bridging into something. All right, cool. And then season three I was like, meh. Yeah. House of Cards did. House of Cards did. Yeah, that's true. Season one and two were just gangbusters and three kind of fell off a little. But anyways, that's Netflix for you. I kind of expect if they keep doing this, there's going to be more rampant piracy again. Because for a long time there it was like, how is everyone watching whatever show? Download it on Pirate Bay. And now it's kind of the same deal, obviously, but also with a huge amount of it gone to Netflix. And I think, yeah, I think that might stop. Because yes, Netflix is doing a huge amount of original series, but the people that just kind of watch Netflix all the time are going to run out of original series stuff really fast. And they're probably hanging around for that mass experience of other stuff. Apparently it's at 1200. I'm sorry. Okay. Okay. It could be like time. Didn't. Also, did you write anything about that action movie? No. Okay. You kind of have that. It's a game, right? Okay, yeah. Okay. Yeah. Okay. Hax was awesome. So chat, chat, if it's wrong, it's at 1200 now. So you guys might suck. It is at 1200 now. Yeah. So we'll see how that works. Sorry, guys. The cancer was spreading through chat, 1200, 1200. Yes. Well, we'll see if they're right. Someone might have been trying to time it or something. I can clap for everybody. There's your clap. I tried to like line it up so you could see my hands well and stuff. Anyways, we will keep moving on. We'll try to do all the main topics. So Unified Weapons Masters, High-Tech Gladiatorial Combat. Yeah. So this is pretty much probably as sick as it sounds, if I can find the topic. Control-F, GLAD, third page, top of the third. Found it. Control-F is my hero. Looks really cool. The suits are designed really well, I guess you could say from the video I watched. They look great fighting. And basically what the idea is, you can do melee combat with different types of weapons. The suits will protect you. And the biggest part of the suits is actually they give you a reading of what the blow would be. And basically gives you health points. And you would lose health points by taking strikes in different areas. But there is such things as a one-hit kill, like something to the throat or something like that. But maybe if you just kick the guy in the side, he'll take X amount of damage. It looks really interesting kind of combining the oldest form of fighting with the newest technology. A really interesting blend they've got going. It's actually pretty freaking cool. What I liked at the beginning of this video was just them showing... What's up? Down? I thought it was at 2k. We did 1200 I thought. 1200? Yeah, 1700? That's a lot of milliseconds. Okay. Alright. Anyways, you guys just saw that again, probably, hopefully. So what's really cool is they're fighting. Those are probably foam, because that makes sense. But they're fighting. And you can just record the data afterwards. If you have someone sitting on the sidelines, I'm sure they could tell you when things happen. So if you get a throat shot like you were talking about, you could end the match. You could do whatever you want. Really cool. Apparently, when are they starting their first actual matches? I think they were trying for the end. I tried to find the doc here. I think they were trying for the end of this year, probably beginning of next year. I think that's what they were saying. First live combat event in 2016. Okay, there you go. So that's pretty cool. That'll be exciting to watch. I kind of hope... I don't know. They're probably foam weapons, but I kind of hope that they don't. They said that they're going to be real weapons. Like, the suits are made to protect you. And you can see at one point, if you watch the whole video, the guy is completely losing. Like, he's losing. His health points are going down. I think he's got 30%. The other guy's at 100. 30% guy wins. He gets a strike through to the throat, and they pause it, and you can see the sword hit and bend and flex with the pressure. So it might not be foam, and it might not be steel, but it could be something... Well, it could be that fencing... Yeah, it could just be really thin, kind of. But I think their goal is to really, really get physical with it. You see guys hitting pretty hard, and the armor is supposed to protect you kind of deal. So really interesting stuff. I know they've been trying to work on this for a while, and it could be a lot of fun. I think the big thing right out of the gate would be the price. I think it'd be extremely limited just due to the insane cost. Well, if they're doing a live combat event, it sounds kind of like they're probably going to plan it more around USC-style stuff. Oh, yeah. So not like laser tag at your local thing. More like no-named fighters going into gladiatorial-style combat. So yeah, it'll probably be expensive, but I'm sure they'll probably be the only ones actually using the full bodysuits. Apparently they use a combination of... I'm going to say this wrong, but a combination of piezoelectric shock and vibration sensors and accelerometers to measure not only where the hit lands, but the severity as well. So if I strike and I just kind of nick his arm, barely, that's probably not going to take off that many hit points. But if I strike and I hit the same part, but then kind of dig in when I do so, it might do a lot more in terms of damage. I'm not entirely sure, but... And these guys throw everything. They're throwing elbows and kicks, and they're tripping each other, and yeah, it's... That's super cool. Apparently the data collected by the suit will be beamed wirelessly to a special ringside computer system, like I was mentioning earlier, which will keep the score. So that's essentially probably going to be health points. Oh yeah. They show the little bars. It's very video game-esque in that video. Check that out. Jump back. So I linked in the chat the video so that you can watch, but I'm going to jump back here right now so you can actually see the health on the bottom. So that guy just hit 0% and lost. I'll jump back a little bit more so you can see that again. At a different point, they also say what these guys are trained in. These guys... Some of them are ninjitsu, some guys are doing karate, but all sorts of different martial arts backgrounds for these guys. But yeah, it looks pretty cool. They have some really great engagements. Yeah. It's got the ninja braille. See, nice kick there right to the midsection. Actually did a good amount of damage. That's interesting. So you can see their BPM. You can see what KGF, I'm not entirely sure what that is, but probably armor or health or something. I'm not sure. But it's cool how much data they have on these guys. Pretty sick. Pretty sick. What's up, Jesse? Hi, it's still off. Are you hitting apply? I am. Yes. Yeah, it's... He's definitely hitting apply. I can vouch for it. I was worried about that actually. I am hitting apply. It's on 1700. Definitely applied. Try to... 2K. It's still off, but at this point I'm not even... I think I'm going crazy because I'm not even sure. What we're doing is actually making a difference. Yeah, okay. It's now on 2K. 2K. Like 2K games. Did anyone get that reference? Can we sell it for another $50 now? Maybe. Probably. Maybe. I think they came out... I could be wrong with this, but they came out with an NBA game that was like $70 on Steam. Really? Yeah, 2K NBA. It was $70. I'm excited to play Mad Max. Speaking of excited to play video games and possibly Mad Max, I'm going to do a shameless plug here because I think it's okay because it's for charity. Tomorrow, Saturday, not entirely sure when I'm going to start. Maybe before noon is the time I'm giving right now. I'm going to be starting a 24-hour charity stream for Extra Life. I've been tweeting that out a little bit over the last bit. So yeah, come by, hang out, maybe donate, maybe don't. Just tell your friends. Do something. I'm going to be playing games for a super long time and hopefully we'll make money for Extra Life. I did a charity stream a bit over a year ago, I think, and my memory is failing me and my Twitter didn't go back far enough. But I think we made about $3,200. So the goal this year is 5K, which is insane. We might not get it, but I think it would be pretty cool. It was extremely successful last time. It was. Yeah. 3K. Holy. Okay. General settings, audio. Should we just set to like 10,000 and see if it's actually making a difference? Why? Okay. There we go. Yep. 3,000. It's okay. We'll see what happens. I guess we will see. Okay, moving on. That was actually pretty freaking cool. Moving on. New federal requirements on cell phone surveillance. So federal law enforcement have routinely been required to obtain a search warrant before using secretive and intrusive cell phone tracking technologies. But something like the Stingray, which is a suitcase-sized device, sweeps up basic cell phone data from a neighborhood, which can trick phones to connecting to it. So basically, even if you're not making calls or texting people or whatever, your phone is always connecting to things. So if the Stingray can make your phone connect to it, they can find your phone, which is probably in your pocket so they can find you. Now, I didn't have a ton of time to actually read this because I was busy with all the things like finding capture cards. I have read stuff about the Stingray previously to today. They've been using a lot in the States with the whole different Ferguson issues. And there's a lot of things going on in the States with kind of police versus citizens. And there's a lot of tension there. And apparently the Stingray has been used quite a bit in all sorts of places. They can rip your calls. They can take your texts. All these kinds of things I've been reading from different news outlets. So there definitely needs to be something to manage this. And I think this is at least a great first step because it does appear, especially on kind of some of the alternative news outlets that talk about these different protests, that they're using these things extremely widespread. There's no control over it. They're just popping them up whenever and however they wish to. So any control would be fantastic as privacy is a bigger and bigger issue with our wireless tech these days. And basically what's happening is the new policy requires a warrant in most cases except for immediate security. So immediate threats, sorry. So basically immediate emergencies. I can talk like national security threats, although I don't think that's properly defined. Authorities will need to delete data that's been collected once they have the info that they need. And the American Civil Liberties Union has said that the policy is a good first step. Called on the Justice Department to close remaining loopholes, such as one allowing for warrantless surveillance under undefined exceptional circumstances. So it's kind of what I was mentioning earlier. Lose terminology. Yeah, yeah. Exceptional circumstances. What does that mean? To me, nothing. Not having jam to go on my peanut butter and jam sandwich can sometimes be an exceptional circumstance. I can be pretty distraught about that because just having the peanut butter makes it so that your mouth just gets all. Yeah, you need the jam to smooth things out. Exactly. So that's not a good thing. And it might be helpful if I could use a surveillance device to find a store where I could buy the jam. Yeah, exactly. I think that would be OK. Anyways, Amazon's one hour delivery. Oh my God. You get just one hour delivery jam to yourself. I'm going to check how the audio delay is doing right now. Uh, 100,000 from BRGamer. Yeah, he might be onto something. Yeah, so apparently not good. Someone just yelled audio. Do another one of those. See if it helps anything. Audio is still ahead. Audio is ahead? Was there any words on that? One second. Hmm. It's not happening. I am clicking apply. I see nothing. Oh God. I never see things I'm not supposed to see. Do you want to go check it now, Justin? Go try that. Just go. Anyways, moving on to more topics. I can feel my face getting redder. Mine is, I'm pretty sure you can see mine is redder. Oh my goodness, that was bad. So to explain what just happened, I was trying to be quick and try to keep talking to you guys. And what I did was I was adding audio delay to my system speakers. Instead of adding audio delay to the microphone. So what I was hearing was being audio delayed by 3000 milliseconds. And what I was saying was being audio delayed by nothing. So now what I'm saying is being audio delayed by 550 milliseconds and is apparently perfect. So my face is definitely full of blood right now. And I feel very embarrassed and I kind of want to run away. But I'm going to keep doing the WAN Show because I love you guys. And I want it to go well. Oh man. My back. Let's just change it by 3000. That's like three seconds I think. Okay. Wow. Yeah. My cheeks hurt. Anyways, moving on. Introducing GDDR5X. Higher density and faster data rates. So basically up until now, 4GB modules were the highest density available for GDDR5. Now they can make 8GB dense modules, which is actually pretty badass because that's doubling the capacity. Which is actually fairly intense. Micron hinted that the 8GB per second GDDR5 modules are in production. So that's 1GB per second faster than the previous highest, which was 7. That being said, people were overclocking and stuff. But this means you could overclock even more. Yeah, exactly. Good. They see 8GB per second, the absolute peak for the GDDR5 kind of platform in its current form. But that's not super surprising because I think a lot of people are expecting the future to be AMD's angle, which is the stacking of stuff. So this is probably good if say Nvidia isn't going to move to HBM, hybrid module. I don't know. Whatever. The stacking memory from AMD. If they're not going to go that route because usually the companies don't really like copying each other, this will give them some more time to figure something out. But I do expect everything is going to be stacking like crazy. Stacks on stacks on stacks on your graphics cards soon enough. So this is cool. This is good. Personally, I think stacking is still going to kind of be high performance memory. What? High bandwidth. There we go. They also mentioned that the actual board could be smaller while still maintaining this power, which is a big deal because in a lot of the smaller builds we're seeing these days, the graphics card is the huge piece that's somewhat of a problem. Yeah. And like people have been addressing that lately and that's been pretty cool because back in what was it? 600 series? Or 700 series? I don't remember what card it was, but Linus and I made so many jokes because of the penis extension of the card, which was basically the PCB ended and then they just put on like an extra plastic shroud to make it longer because they were like, well, short cards look stupid and dumb. Not true anymore. A lot of people are going for short cards because they're going for little ITX systems. You only sometimes need two sticks of RAM because the high capacity RAM can get you a ton of memory. You get huge capacity RAM sticks. You can get a badass graphics card, which is nice and short, and you can make this little tiny awesome system of epicness. You're not taking any big losses going with the tiny little builds as you would have in the past. You're getting a lot of the same things, if not better, in a smaller and especially for guys like us, a more LANable case. Yeah, no, that's a huge thing. I saw a bunch of, we were just, this is my brother for the people that didn't get that earlier in the stream. Broancho. Yes, Brocho. Welcome to the Brocho. We were just at the BYOC Bring Your Own Computer LAN at PAX Prime 2015. Yep. And there was, there's a bunch of little tiny systems. One of my favorite things about LANs is you get the combination of the person who made a computer into a Team Fortress 2 turret, which was moving. Yes, that was awesome. You get the guy who made a computer into a suitcase that had a monitor in it, and then you have the computer that probably got its case from 1998 and has had random hand-me-down part upgrades ever since then, and he's just still LAN-ing. Still gaming hard. And he's fine, and he's trudging along. Slugging it out. You've got all the different variances, and I think that's pretty cool, but this will allow people to do cool little tiny builds, and that's awesome. Well, this will help allow people to do that. Yes, absolutely. Definitely not the only component, and AMD is doing their own stuff as well, so I can't take them down a notch. This is just a good thing. It also helps with SLI or Crossfire, you know, because your RAM is definitely limited in that situation. Yeah, because it's not additive, which is cool, so you can get a bunch more memory and then two cards that are the same, and then you have a bunch more memory. And everyone wants more screens these days, you know, to help those guys who want triple screens. I'm not there yet. Still rocking two. I'm trying to get more. I have two at home and I have three at work, and I want like five at work, and I want like maybe more than five at home. Who's got the overhead display? Barnacles? Barnacles, yes. Yeah, I want one of those two, not nearly as big as his. His like, that's all TVs, and they're giant. I don't necessarily want that. I want a monitor on a tilt down though, and I want like small auxiliary monitors for server monitoring and stuff. That's awesome. I want to be able to like play Eve and mine up here and like play Hearthstone here and World of Tanks here and monitor the forum here and monitor a server up there and just all the things. I want to feel like I'm in like, people say like, oh, reddit battle stations or whatever. I want to legitimately be able to have a battle station. Nice. I want to have like my racing wheel set up and my joystick and throttle set up and like a bajillion and a half monitors and keyboard and mouse and a controller and just be like, I can do everything. That's what I want. Anyways. You got to be able to be racing, have voice controls for Hearthstone, voice controls for Eve. Yeah. Yeah, just keep it going. Card 3, use your battle cry on enemy card 4. Thank you. Also mine that rock and I need to drive a tank. Although I probably can't do that by voice. Anyways, let me find another topic. Wikipedia editors turn to blackmail. This is kind of horrible because you know what? I actually really like Wikipedia. Wikipedia is super badass. And if you've gone to school in the last decade, you like Wikipedia. Wikipedia has gotten so many people through their degrees. So a lot of people owe like their entire degree to Wikipedia, which is pretty cool. But editors at Wikipedia have allegedly started contacting small businesses and lesser known celebrities, telling them that they need to pay up or have their entries edited to oblivion. Oblivion. That's just that's petty and that's garbage. As for hundreds of pounds, so this was posted probably not on a North American website. It's fudzilla.com. So I don't know, but hundreds of pounds as in monies. I'm going to post this in the Twitch chat so you guys can see what we're talking about. And then I'm going to switch to my screen. There we go. I make the computer noises so that you don't have to assume that they're there. The stream PC is not doing things. There we go. Hooray. Yeah. So apparently this guy got edited to God, which is not a thing. Anyways, long article. I need to get back to my sheet. So we're not actually going to look at that. Uh-huh. Tricked. They offered their powers as editors to keep the page up if the fee is met. So basically if you want your Wikipedia page up, sometimes if what you're trying to talk about isn't worth talking about, if you're like, my name is Fred and I'm in grade four and I really like apples, I don't think you really get a Wikipedia page. Good healthy choice, Fred. Yes, actually, apples. Good move. Apple a day keeps something away. I don't remember. Dentist, doctor, I don't know. Either way. So basically I think they're they're claiming that they can help you keep it up. Alleged offenders will contact the person or business on behalf of Wikipedia soon after their page is created. Wikipedia has started stated that this is a coordinated group, which is not better. No. Also, they have since purged 381 sock puppet accounts and 210 articles created by them. I'm not entirely sure what sock puppet means, but judging by sock, like a robo account, it's an account that those guys will use to screw around with things that don't look like their own account. Yeah. Wikipedia Foundation blog post stated neutrality is key to ensuring Wikipedia's quality, although it does not happen often. Undisclosed paid advocacy editing may represent a serious conflict of interest. It would and could compromise the quality of content on Wikipedia. It would. Absolutely. And it probably has at this point. So hopefully they they deal with that because Wikipedia is awesome and I wouldn't that I wouldn't want that to become an actual problem in the future. EVJ will soon be entering the enthusiast gaming notebook market. This is not that surprising. Every every kind of once every few years, EVJ will be like, here's another product line. Yeah. And they seem to do pretty well in all of them. So that's pretty cool. Notebook will be capable of heavy overclocking. So that's interesting. We'll see. Notebooks traditionally not usually that great. Some of them have been pretty good. Actually, I know a few guys that have gotten some pretty impressive over clocks on notebooks and had them not throttle. So that's interesting. But we'll see if they're capable of heavy overclocking. We will see. Featuring the new Skylake mobile mobile mobile mobile CPU. 17 inch thin gaming notebook with very high end hardware. They said Skylake. So probably really high end mobile cards as well. I would assume plan to launch late 2015 or early 2016. 100 percent EVJ design from the ground up, which is also not surprising. Yeah. Speculated that the K series mobile skew will be included. So K series processors. But that has not yet been confirmed. Although if they're saying like it's going to be overclockable, heavy overclocking, very high end hardware. It's probably going to be a thing. It needs to have that K. Yeah. If it does use a K series chip, it will feature four cores, eight total threads, stock clock of three point two gigahertz with a three point six gigahertz turbo and forty five watt TDP. Those numbers are just insane. If you got into computers when I did or earlier. Yeah. Like that's just absurd. All of those things, the amount of threads, the amount of cores, the speed, the TDP. Everything is just nuts. The thickness of the notebook is not expected to be an issue as Skylake has a very good power performance envelope and has increased power from overclocking is minimal compared to previous generation GPUs. CPUs. Sorry. That's true. But if you're going with the heavy overclocking and very high end hardware thing. Yes. So far we're just talking about the CPU. I'm interested in the GPU. Yeah. So if I'm going to get heavy amounts of overclocking, I'm going to want if that's what I'm buying this laptop for, I'm probably going to want a fairly excessive amount of cooling. So if they're like, they seem like very conflicting. Absolutely. It's going to have the most badass hardware. It's going to be super fast. You can build overclock the crap out of it. It's going to be thin. Like that's that's awesome. If you can get all those things to be true. Yeah. Yeah. Seems like they're claiming quite a bit. They don't have time to actually come out with it because if they're saying end of 2015, you know, September is going to fly by those people, you know, summers over school starting September always disappears. At least for me it does. And then, you know, we're into October already. The end of the year is going to be here. So this is around the corner as far as I'm concerned. Yeah. So they're going to have to have this stuff figured out. Personally, I'm kind of hedging on the fact that they might be claiming too much. But hopefully not. Hopefully not. This was the first year I actually took a laptop to BYOC. Yeah. I'm not a big fan of the monitor, but being able to have if you're able to have a gaming laptop that you can bring around for lands and things like that, it's really nice. It's pretty slides into your backpack. Man, I had an easy time this year. One of the cool things about that, too, is you don't have to worry about people stealing your stuff. You just drop it into your laptop and take off. Exactly. Which is nice. They did kind of save their butts a little bit and say or early 2016. Yeah. So if they don't make it by that late 2015 line, they can still kind of pour over, which is nice. You would assume they would try to hit it for Christmas, but I'm wondering if they're just going, you know, we might not make it kind of deal. Yeah. I think that's the goal, though. You're probably right. More laptop talk. ASUS refreshes ROG laptops with G752. I use the G751 at that LAN, so here's the two. Yeah. And liquid-cooled GX700 series. Yeah. This is interesting. Yes. So I'm going to try to get the topic up on here. So GX700 being teased as well. That's the liquid-cooled one. Let me see if I can get the topic up here. Sorry. One second. So this is from Anantek. I'm going to post this in the chat. My laptop is not super happy about things right now. Very interesting attachment that they're going to have for this. I don't fully understand how it works yet. I'm not sure if they release enough information to fully understand how it works. Right. But it does look like I could be wrong on this, but it appears like there's a closed loop water cooling system built in. But then you can attach this huge unit that just kind of chunks into the back of it, which would essentially extend that water cooling. Because if there's a water cooling attachment without that, how does it cool unless there is already an established closed loop? It could be like, OK, full disclosure, I was busy filming a super fun and stuff before the show. But what this could be is very similar to the like, what was that card? Asus, I don't remember the name Poseidon. I'm having trouble with the name right now. Twitch chat will correct me. But the Asus Poseidon where it's an air-cooled graphics card. That looks like it. Yeah, it's an air-cooled graphics card, but it has fittings. And this could be just basically quick disconnect fittings on this guy. So it's air-cooled and then you can click in and turn it into a water cooling system. That could be what it is. Again, full disclosure, I haven't read it. That could be, yeah. It's basically got to be either or because it's good. Now, I don't know a lot about this Poseidon card. How well does it work? I'm always scared when a tool says, you know, I can do two things. These are the two things that I do. Because generally a tool that will do one of those things does it better than the tool that can do two things. So I'm not 100% sure, but it's a really interesting idea. And we're talking about overclocking lands and all that kind of stuff. Usually what I find, like with the Poseidon, I actually not that long ago did a review of a Zotac 2-in-1 cooling style card. I think that might actually be in the background here. One of them. Yeah, the Arctic something. You can see it. I'll show it with my mouse. This one. Wait, no, that's not what you're seeing. This one right there. That has two little water cooling fittings right there. Usually what I find is that the air cooling is okay. Right. Even if it has like pretty, like that one had pretty beast air cooling built into it. But because of like the water block and stuff and needing to transfer through it, it usually ends up being okay instead of great as it's actually made to be. But then you have water cooling options and then that water cooling option is usually sick. So with this laptop, you could go to your work, do whatever you need to do, and it'll probably be fine because you won't maybe push it as hard. And then you could dock it at home into water cooling and then game. And that's actually a pretty cool use case. I think that makes sense. And just the fact that it's quick connects can be really good for people who don't want to spend. If you've ever completely water cooled your computer, it takes time and effort and a bit of maintenance. You know, that could be a really simple idea for someone who wants to just get in, get out and not spend a whole lot of time with it. Yeah. So again, just more options. I think, you know, the laptop, the notebook market is just getting bigger and bigger just with how much more powerful they're able to build them. Yeah, it's really cool. I was kind of anti laptop for a while there, to be completely honest, just desktops all the way. And I still kind of am, but they're really shortening that gap. I'm still like, to be fair, I'm talking about cool, cool gaming laptops. Gaming laptops are interesting. I still like the idea of a beast desktop at home and then a like more business style laptop just because I like my laptops running at cool temperatures. And I usually actually like them without a GPU because I find GPU switching can be very kind of weird sometimes. But yeah, got it. My bad. It makes sense. Sorry for banging on the desk, everyone. So yeah, it's interesting. But gaming laptops seem to be getting better lately, so my opinion might change eventually. We'll see. I'm not rigid on that. Next up, Moto 360 2015 edition. There was a hands on from, I believe, Gizmodo. So let me see if I can open this up. Android Pit. So I'm going to post that in the Twitch chat as well. Give me one quick second. I closed it. It's personally my, and I'm not a big smartwatch guy. It's personally my favorite looking smartwatch. Cool. I love the fact that it's round. Yeah, that's not a new, you know, that was on their on their last watch. But the fact that it's round, it looks like a watch because to me, a watch is still a style point. I understand they're building in all this technology. You can look at your text message. You can OK, Google. There's different things that you can do with the Apple watch as well. But to me, it's still a style piece. And it's really it has to contribute to your outfit, to your look. It's got to look right in the mirror or it's not going to work. That's just my personal opinion. I think the 360 does a does the best job of it currently. Yeah. So the basic model starts at three hundred US dollars. So like eight thousand Canadian dollars. Eight and a half. Yeah. Yeah. And the more expensive version, which I don't know a ton about at this moment, is four hundred and fifty US dollars. So about sixteen thousand Canadian dollars. I'm kidding, by the way, the Canadian dollar just sucks right now. So bad. It's pretty rough. It comes in two sizes, 46 millimeter and 42 millimeter. The idea is that Motorola can market the two different sizes to men or women. Women, not women. They can market it to women. Well, I think they actually have two sizes for males like the small and the large. And then they have a female version, which is the small with a different band. Oh, cool. So that's kind of it. Sure. Although the bands, I believe, are interchangeable. Yeah, interchangeable. Where? Yeah, right there. You can see the band. Oh, yes. Just right there. That's the little mechanism that no one can see me pointing at. But here I'll use the mouse. Wait, wrong mouse. Yeah, it's right there. There you go. The display. So it has a like like it said earlier, the display comes in two different sizes, one point three seven inch and one point five six inch. They're both LCDs. They have resolutions of three hundred and sixty by three hundred and twenty five and three hundred sixty by three thirty. So not a huge difference in the resolution, actually. They move the hardware button from the three o'clock position to the two o'clock. I like that. Oh, it's way better. It's also I was reading that there was issues with people bending their wrist and getting poked into there. That's that's a big problem. Most people wear their watches on their left hand. They're going to have that button on the right hand side. It's going to be an issue. So it's it's smart that they move that. Yes, I do want to go to dinner tonight. Alice Yang. I'm hungry. That would work for me. I'm a little hungry. Let me know which restaurant I'll third wheel like crazy. That works because it's not a date. I let's see here in terms of actual tech specs. It has the Snapdragon 400 processor running a frequency of one point two gigahertz, four gigabytes of internal storage and five hundred twelve megabytes of RAM, which is something I haven't said for a while because it's a very low, very low amount of RAM. We even like stopped iterating in that amount. Now it's like per gig instead of half gig. Yeah. Anyways, good old days. The 400 milliamp battery. Obviously, that's a small amount. But, you know, you got to look at the draw, not necessarily the capacity. Yeah. But again, that's the scary thing with smartwatches is the fact that they don't last a long time. I think I would want to jump to the 46 millimeter even just for the battery. Yes, the 42 millimeter watch has a 300 milliamp hour battery and then the 46 millimeter watch has a 400 milliamp hour. Large increase. Absolutely worth it alone. Then the like slightly higher PPI, which is pretty actually lower PPI, but slightly higher resolution. So the PPI of the smaller one, the 42 millimeter, is three hundred and fifty four. And that's at a resolution of three sixty by three twenty five. And the PPI of the slightly larger one, the 46 millimeter one, is three hundred and thirteen. So it's lower, but as a slightly higher resolution of three sixty by three thirty. It's just a bigger screen. Yeah. Android Wear, as you all probably figured out automatically, it has four cores running at that one point two gigahertz and Bluetooth four point. So I'm sure Linus is going to end up reviewing this at some point. So yeah, that'd be awesome. Probably stay tuned to get their hands on one of those. Let me see here. We could jump into the Samsung launches. The oh, you got some on mine, don't you? I do. It's going to take me a second. We have sponsor spots, sponsor spots. Hooray. Yeah. So we're going to jump into Linda dot com. Linda dot com is awesome. You get a 10 day free trial at Linda dot com slash WAN show. Millions of people around the world use it. They have more than three thousand courses available. It's actually kind of insane. If you go on their website, there's like all the things they have topics like web development, photography, visual design, business. I know a few people that have actually used multiple ones that I just said. I know someone who's looked at their business stuff. I know someone who's looked up their photography and visual design stuff. And I know someone who started to learn photo editing through there. Ah, exactly. They also have software like Excel, WordPress and Photoshop. Yes, they do. Like I just mentioned, whether you want to set new financial goals, become a better person in your respective field, learn a new skill, try something new, any of that kind of stuff. Check out Linda dot com slash WAN show. Plans are only twenty five bucks a month and you get a 10 day free trial with that link. So head over to Linda dot com slash WAN show. Claim your 10 day free trial and start learning today. I actually got a buddy onto Linda dot com. He just took a different job. Yeah. Government jobs. So he started doing recycling. We'll keep this try to be somewhat nondescript specific. But he's got a few hours at the end of the day, which he wasn't sure how to fill. And he was saying, you know, how could I make money? He's trying to think of ideas. And I was saying, maybe instead of directly looking to make a financial gain in those few hours at the end of the day, check out Linda dot com. Maybe do a course or something like that. He's actually signed up and doing it. So that's awesome. It's pretty cool. You can fit it in there on your own time. Well, if what he learns needs a website, Squarespace dot com. Go to Squarespace dot com. Use our offer code Linus to save 10 percent and you can make a beautiful website using one of their many templates. It requires basically no skill level. Although if you do have a skill level at designing websites, you can get down into some of the code and change how things look. But you don't really need to. They have a whole bunch of different templates. You just kind of drop in text and images and then it just looks very nice and professional. And can take a wave of WAN show people, which is actually pretty intense. It can that multiple times. Let me see here. One quick second. There was a provider. Oh, wasn't able to. I clicked the wrong. What is happening? Do you see that the minimize and new tab button are covering each other? So I just do control T. It'll work anyways. Keyboard shortcuts been working since three point one. What actually maybe not that shortcut specifically, but in a second. So if you guys go to Cali bags online dot com K a l i bags online dot com, you can see my mom's website. She made that it's on Squarespace and it's awesome. And she made the whole thing. I helped her with like one random very small thing. She made all the rest and she doesn't exactly have like education and creating websites. So there you go. There you go. Trust by millions of people who sorry once I trust by millions of people and some of the most respected brands around the world starts at just eight bucks a month. And you get a free domain if you sign up for a year. I know it's a solid deal. A certain employee at Linux Media Group had his fiance start a website based on their wedding on Squarespace. And I believe they got the domain for free through that. I'm not entirely sure. Nice. But that's all I'm going to say. So that's it for now. Private matters. Anyway, Squarespace build it beautiful. Again, go to that link squarespace dot com and use offer code Linus to save 10 percent. Boop. Yay. Back to topics. Let's do some rapid fire for a sec. Unless there was something you wanted to do. There is, but we can do it after rapid fire. All right. Mini news. Google new logo. How much is this trip you out? I was wondering what you're going to say about it because I don't really like it. It doesn't really matter. No, no. Well, like I don't really like it. But I also say that with not really caring because why? I don't you know what I mean? I'm not a huge fan. But again, I don't I don't care about any of it, especially the large logo. What I do care about is the why can't I think of the name of it right now? The small little icon that goes on your tabs. Oh, yeah. Because it's just tripping me out because I'm not used to it. Yeah. Yeah. I'm like, where's that tab? And I can't find it because the little icons different. Fabric on a problem. I might be pronouncing that incorrectly, but the fabric on image is just driving me nuts. Other than that, I don't care at all. I use Google Maps constantly on my phone at work and they changed a bunch of the icons. So I get the same feeling. Right. Yeah. Like what you don't look right. What is that? I'm looking for the thing that I know. So what you're seeing here is I believe a gift. Yeah. Of that. That little thing right there is what usually gets places. The fabric on and they just kind of show the other things that the logo could be used as because it's morphing into their other logos. It's a cute little animation. I like it. Yeah, it works. It works. So yeah, they changed the logo. They were recently acquired by themselves under a company called Alphabet. Things are changing. None of it, in my opinion, is really all that important. They also mentioned that it might look better on smaller screens since everything's trying to go multi platform and because smaller screens and are becoming absolutely the norm. So there's a hint that that might be kind of the reason. Interesting. Yeah. Some of it was also because it more closely resembles the logo of Alphabet, which is that parent company I just mentioned. It's supposed to look more modern and playful. I don't know anyone who does kind of the playful look as well as Google does. I thought they were very modern and playful before. Already, yeah. But what else can you say about a small font change? Not much. We'll get through this if you don't like it. It'll be okay. Yeah, I don't know. It's just it's really not that big of a deal. I saw a few people, very small amount of people freaking out, but I think most people kind of generally agree with us. Let's see what the Twitch chat says. Let's do a straw poll actually. So give me a second to make this straw poll. Oh man. Turn it up. This is, I'm borrowing John. John, our resident Americans laptop for this. So you can see, I'm going to move us out of that corner. You can see just how awesome this desktop is. I don't know if he made this or if he found this, but either way, it's just great. So I'm going to start a straw poll while you guys hopefully talk about that amazing background. It's pretty epic. The double down. The double down is awesome. I think John's laughing back there now. Give me one second. Sorry guys. So type your question here. What was it again? What do you think? You think? You think of the new? I'll just show you guys what I'm doing. Google logo. Oh my God. I hate it so much. I spelled much incorrectly, but it kind of goes with how it works. A wild Nick has appeared. Hi Nick. What's wrong Nick? Okay. I saw your giant full caps note on that. We're good. Thanks bro. Oh, I don't even know. Okay. We'll see. Turnip. I'm not going to learn what it's about right now. Yeah, do that while I do this. Oh my God. I hate it so much. I don't care. Turnip. I don't really care much, but it's confusing. Sometimes. Cool. Do you have like an I like it option? There we go. Okay, cool. There's no positive answer. We will do permissive and then that's it. So create poll. Give me a quick second. My prediction is turnip. Yeah, you think turnip is going to straight up win? Well, that's pretty awesome when turnip straight up wins. I have to say. I have occasionally voted for turnip every time. I've occasionally done this literally all the time forever. I like it. Oh, turnip. Oh geez. Turnip is kind of running away with it all of a sudden. I'm hoping I like it wins. Actually kind of want turnip to win because it makes Linus a little mad. Yeah, so I kind of vote for turnip. That's always entertaining. I'm actually part of team number three, I guess, at this point, which is I don't really care, but it's confusing sometimes. Yes, my honest answer would be. I don't dislike it. So I would be down with saying that I like it. It looks nice. I don't really care. I just yeah, I'm a part of number three. I don't fully understand the oh my god, I hate it so much crowd. But if someone's like resistant to change and they use Google a lot, I guess I get it. It is the smallest. It is it is heavily losing at this point. It is turnip is just wrecking. Just destroying. 16% above the closest other vote. So that's that's pretty cool. So our first real answer is I like it. So that's kind of cool. Yes, I like it's winning. Don't keep reading that thing. Yes. So I'm going to actually jump down and do a rapid fire topic by myself and then hopefully you can help fill us in on whatever that is that you're actually reading. So the ASUS matrix GTX 980 Ti platinum has been shown off. I'll try to get to the actual thread, but the actual thread wasn't really linked. So it's going to take me a quick second. It looks freaking sick. I can tell you that much. But you might have a little bit of trouble having it match your motherboard unless you have the exact motherboard that goes with it, which if you're spending that much money on it, it's probably not that unlikely. So it's probably okay. Hopefully this press release actually has pictures. This press release does not have pictures. I don't think so. We're actually just going to show off Linus Tech Tips topic, which I will link you guys in a moment here. I say this every time I'm on the show, but your form is awesome. When I was looking through the documentation or the doc, I should say before the show, there's a link to a Linus Tech Tips forum post for every single topic we're talking about. You guys are awesome. You contribute very well. The tech news and reviews is like one of the most insane things. One of the most insane forum sections I've seen on any forum ever. They're so on top of things because people are so aggressive about wanting to be the first one. And people are so good at formatting. It's a beautiful look. It's like you make your form on Squarespace. We're working on that actually for the next version of the forum, which is in development right now. Envision Powerboard, the Envision Power whatever, is the software that we use. And they released their new version. But we're going to be heavily modifying it, adding in a really cool new text editor thing that we're doing tons of work on and a whole bunch of other stuff. So it should be actually a really big upgrade. We're going to be ramping up classified. So classified should be a lot cooler. There's going to be way more functionality. We're going to be implementing a lot of that stuff that's been in the thread forever that people are like, can we do this? And we're like, maybe in the next version. So we've been working on a lot of that stuff. Hopefully you guys like it. But that's months out. I probably shouldn't have even teased it. So I'm just excited. Whatever. Anyways, I know you put an absolute ton of work into the first version of the forum. I remember going over to your place and you look like an absolute zombie and there was a ton of work. And I think that's when Mr. Wizard was helping out as well. And this time we've got a pretty big crew. We've got Kat on the forum is helping. Colonel Mortis is helping a lot. Mr. Wizard is helping again. I'm doing some stuff. Probably not as much as I should be. But yeah, there's a big crew helping. And then once we start testing it, I'm going to be using all the mods. And probably a bunch of Linus Media Group employees to like test out the website, find all the bugs that we can, try to fix what we can. And then we'll go from there. But anyways, jumping back to it. The 980 Ti Platinum card. You can see why I might have said it might be a little bit rough to match with certain systems. But then again, if I scroll down, you can see the motherboard that goes with it. And that thing, it matches it very well. It looks like so if you want to get both that'll look super badass. And if you don't, it might be a little bit rough. I'm not going to be matching things, but you'll be okay. Could do a Linus Media Group build with those parts. Oh my God. The orange is slightly wrong. I think. But that's all a lot of that's glowing area. Maybe it looks pretty cool. It looks pretty cool. I like it. Doing a Linus Media Group build like black and orange in general. I don't even think we've done that. And that's a pretty good idea. I don't think there's a whole lot of options unless you were customizing. No, we'd probably have to. Yeah, but that's fine. Once this works. Right here and you guys can't see it is done. We might be able to you mean that beautifully organized area of perfection. He lies. Deceit and lies. Anyways, jumping to the topic that I don't even know what it is. We're gonna have to work through this together. Because I've been reading it and it is a whole lot of information. But it does look pretty interesting. ashes of Singularity demo was showing better performance and DX 12 on AMD cards and Nvidia. Yes. Okay, I haven't read about this enough. But I've read about it a little bit. So this is a massive topic. Nick has been working on the notes for it. Like up there during the show. I read something about it like right before the show started. I wish I knew more about it. There's actually a really good thread about it on overclock.net. Technically, they're a competitor to our forum. But I really like those guys. And I've got buddies that have been in the computer thing for a long time. They're like, man, I really want to join last Texas. But I have like friends on overclock.net that I talked to for like all the time for years. You know what? That's cool. Just chill out there. It's cool. So we're not we're not enemies. We're cool. That's cool. So yes, ashes of Singularity. The oxide developer Colac had a very lengthy response on the overclock.net forum. So that's what I linked. I believe. Yes, that should bring you right to the right post. So that's actually from the developer. He only has four posts. But after seeing this post, it looks like he made them count. I'll show you. Yeah, definitely. So yeah, he went ham. Not technically wall of text because he pressed enter sometimes. But it's it's all it's a lot of text. So basically, I think what happened was that AMD cards did perform better on DX 12. Yeah, ashes Singularity demo was showing better performance in DX 12 on AMD cards and Nvidia cards. If ashes is biased, then any unreal four game must be Nvidia biased as well. Yeah. Interesting the nitrous engine. Yeah. Nvidia DX 11 performance has increased over the past few months. DX 12 overhead is still better for Nvidia than it was on DX 11 and has not been fully tweaked yet. This is actually pretty nuts. People are are up in arms about this. I got a few messages right before the show but wasn't entirely sure what it was about. Sorry that we're not fully updated on this topic. This is like live news. It literally came in as the show was going. It literally is. Nick ran down here is like, I'm good. It's ready. And it is about a full page on here. So good job, Nick. Right now. This is a quote. Let me see if I can even see who it's from. Nope, but probably the dude that made that post. So we're going to go with that right now. Estimated about 20% of our graphics pipeline occurs in compute shaders and we are projecting that we're projecting this to be more than 50% on the next iteration of our engine. In fact, it is even conceivable to build a rendering pipeline entirely in compute shaders. For example, there are alternative rendering primitives. That's exactly two triangles, which are actually quite feasible in compute. If someone gave us a card with only with only compute pipeline, I bet we could build an engine around it and it would be plenty fast. I'm not saying that the graphics pipeline will disappear anytime soon or ever, but it's by no means certain that it is necessary. It's quite possible that in five years time, nitrous is rendering pipeline is 100% implemented via compute shaders. Interesting stuff for the graphics world. Yeah. Definitely. Colax said, as far as I know, Maxwell doesn't support async compute, at least not natively. We disabled it at the request of Nvidia as it was much slower to try and use it than to not. Whether or not async compute is better or is not is subjective, but it definitely does buy some performance on AMD's hardware. Whether it is the right architectural decision for Maxwell or not is relevant to its scheduler. Hard to say. The last little quote here from Rob Halleck from AMD chimed in on the matter. Oxide effectively summarized my thoughts on the matter. Nvidia claims full support for DX12, but conveniently ignores that Maxwell is utterly incapable of reforming asynchronous compute with heavy reliance on slow context switching. Without heavy reliance on slow context switching. Yes, without. Sorry. Very important. He's not saying that is fully capable of it, but that it will need outside assistance. So definitely a little bit of drama going on. So this is going to be basically an absolute shit storm. I'm sure there's stuff blowing up around this. I'm going to turn and rip that up a little bit. Yeah, I think our audio is okay at this point. Maybe we're not going to be able to hear it. I think our audio is okay at this point. Maybe refresh the stream if you're having problems. So you wouldn't be able to hear that. I'll type that in chat. Yeah, but I don't know. I hope they figure their stuff out. I like it when these companies have to kind of scrap for things. It's good. Absolutely. But a quote that I've been saying a lot lately is competition is good if the competition is good. Yeah, because I was talking to someone about VR and they were bringing up a whole bunch of kind of auxiliary VR companies. Because right now, if you're talking about VR in terms of hardware, if you're not looking at Oculus or Valve, they're more auxiliary companies outside of that. And some of them are very interesting and might kind of plant their feet and be able to hold there. Some of them I think are just going to fall away. And one of my points was that I hope the ones that are going to fall away because they suck fall away very quickly. Because competition is good. Like I said, if the competition is good, if your competition is good, then you're going to be able to get away with it. If your competition is terrible and there's a whole bunch of it, it's just going to muddy the space. And someone's going to try out one of those things and go like, oh, this is terrible. Therefore, this whole space is terrible. Just brand. Yeah. Yeah. So you kind of want things to work. And if this is all true, everything we just talked about, and they're claiming full support and doesn't have full support, you need to fix that. Yep, absolutely. Because I want it to come down to this card has these features and is this fast. And therefore, I want it over this. This one and vice versa. Instead of like, this card says that it can do this thing and can't. And therefore, I don't know what I want. But I guess that one because it can do all the things you have a somewhat related video, which I watched today about graphics cards saying what they're hitting, what they're actually hitting. Oh, the GPU boost investigation. Yeah, that's interesting. That's that's not as bad. I don't think because it ends up actually running faster. Yeah, it's just weird and confusing. It just reminded me of that video when you were mentioning that. Yeah, yeah, yeah. So check that video out if you want. Basically, when you buy a current Nvidia graphics card, it will they'll have an advertised boost clock speed, which is not what it will boost to at all. I've never seen it actually boost to that number on any graphics card that I've tested in the current gen. So yeah, and the cards that we were testing were like hitting thermal limits and stuff automatically. So if I had ones that weren't doing that automatically, we'd probably even see more variation. But anyways, very interesting. I'm excited to see how this develops. I'm sure this is not the last we've heard about this. Someone is going to want to step up and probably angrily and we'll we'll learn more things. Yeah, that's pretty much all I have to say about that is stay tuned and we'll find out if that's true that sucks. Hopefully they fix it. If it's not true. Well, then what the hell's going on? I don't know. We will see. I'm scrolling down a bunch. Give me a second. There's the trying to find it right now. The new Google car app. Oh, what? Samsung launches car mode for Galaxy. Yes. I know nothing about this. Go for gold. I'll get this posted in the Twitch chat. There we go. OK, so Samsung has offered a car mode on its phones, but it's being refined. Leading the way with car mode is that it offers a standalone mode for those situations where cars aren't compatible, which in most cases, only newer cars offer offer it. It's it's able to be compatible for older cars. Now, as you're looking at up, I want to segue a little bit. I think we're in a really interesting place in the car market. I'm a car enthusiast myself. A lot of people at LNG are. Not including Tesla because they're doing things right. I think basically everyone else and a lot of the and you could say American car manufacturers, but it's not true. Even the imports as well imports, you know, the Toyotas, Volkswagen's of the world. Everyone's somewhat at a starting line. I feel like they've all been making cars for a very long time. They've all done a decent job at their own kind of niche markets, whatever they're trying to hit with their different cars or trucks or whatever it may be. But now vehicles are becoming a tech item and I feel like they're becoming a tech item. I feel like a lot of the manufacturers have been around forever. They're all the same starting line and this is something that's going to slightly differentiate each other because I know it's it's Honda, Toyota and Volkswagen. I'm not surprised at all that it's those three brands that are moving forward with this. There is no car. I think yours does a decent job, but I don't think there's any car besides the Tesla right now that has a great screen touchscreen experience for the user. I think they're all kind of OK. And we're spending so much money on them. We're spending so much money on them and they're just they're just lackluster. They're just not what they need to be. Hopefully this is a step in the right direction because I feel like any car company that's really going to hit it out of the gate is going to do extremely well because everyone else does a terrible job. I'm a Ford fan. They're my touch. Terrible. Hate it. Got nothing good to say about it. You mean like yours is pretty good, but I feel like there's and yours is a 2009. Yeah, I said that in there as well. You know what I mean? In my thing that bothers me about mine being a 2009 is I'll sit in newer cars like I was in a very new truck yesterday driving a very new truck that another dude owns that I know because I had to move a chair. Long story. And it's a very nice truck and the dash the screen on the dash excessively similar to mine in terms of resolution how it works. All that kind of stuff is like a Dodge. A Dodge. See I even like the Dodge ones. Yeah, I even think the Dodge ones do a pretty good job, but they could be so much better. That's the thing like you look at tablets. You look at computers. You look at laptops. You look at phones. You look at all these different markets and they're moving so fast and then vehicles is just like well turn the dial. Yeah, I don't know. I've got the I did the Nexus 7 install in my dash which was kind of a pain, but it looks fantastic. It's a two year old tablet and the PPI is incomparable to anything else that's out there right now as far as buying your vehicle. But what I'm trying to say by this is it's a really interesting art piece. I think Luke linked it. No, someone misunderstood what I was saying. I'm not complaining about driving the Acura. I'm saying it's weird that my cars from 2009 were now going into fairly soon 2016 and I'm not seeing huge differences. It's awesome that my car has that. That's great. I love that. I'm not complaining about that at all. What's crazy is that if you go look at a phone from 2009 and compared to it a phone that's going to be coming out now and yes, no, not at all completely different. Absolutely. What's up, Dennis? Hi, come say hi to the stream. Come on. No, get in front of the camera. Dennis is ready to go home. I think you're leaving. Oh, yeah, it's after work now. Say hi. Hello. No, this is the actual show. I just wanted Dennis to say hi. You read the chat, Dennis. Dennis hype. Yeah, Dennis hype. They're happy to see you. Bye. Okay, bye, Dennis. So one of the big things with this is that you can plug in your phone or can connect wirelessly and then your apps and your phone will basically appear on the screen. So that is a step forward. They're kind of skirting around having to do anything themselves. do anything themselves I feel like. They're kind of like, oh, we'll just kind of port your phone to this screen now, because that's nice. But I really feel, I think Tesla's done an extremely good job. They're going to be coming out with more models of cars. And they'll probably be. Model 3. Model 3. And they're going to be upgrading their screen, I assume. All of you domestic car manufacturers, and I say domestic because the Toyotas you buy here are made here. So are they imported? Are they not? Debate for a different time. Somebody please hit it. Somebody do it well. You know what I mean? Because no one's doing it well right now. I agree. This is a decent step. But I honestly, a big thing that I really wanted to do when we started Linus Media Group was car tech reviews. Yep. I don't know if I've talked to you about this before. You talked about, I guess I shouldn't say, maybe it's more of a business. A certain manufacturer approached you. You looked into it and kind of said, no thanks, because there's nothing here. And that's essentially the story is what I wanted to do was go driving around in a car for a while. And I don't know enough to talk to you guys about the engine and how it works and if it's more efficient than whatever. And I don't know enough about that. I know a little bit about cars. Not enough to make videos on that kind of stuff. Not the technical aspects of the moving components like the engine. But I might be able to do a proper review of the tech that's inside the car. But I'd make a video every year. And it would be like, yep, not much has changed. You can have a Wi-Fi hotspot, but you could also just do that on your phone. Yeah. Which I do. So why would you buy another Sim for your car? Yeah. I don't know. There's some actually really cool, someone just said Mighty Car Mods. I believe that's a YouTube channel that I've seen and is awesome. Car Mods are fantastic. I modded the Nexus 7 into my dash. It took me quite a while to get all the bugs out. It runs great. There's some super cool stuff on YouTube in terms of cars. But that's exactly why I didn't want to do the same thing. I wanted to do something slightly different, because these guys are already awesome. You're not looking into mods. You're looking at what's coming out. Because I can't do that. And there's certain guys, I don't remember what channel it was, maybe it was Mighty Car Mods. They're from, I think, Australia. And they buy a couple of the similar car, and they'll just zombie them together like I did with computers back in the day. And make a couple throwaway cars, basically. And make one good, drivable car out of it for way cheaper than buying a new one. And I watched one episode, and it was actually super cool. So I was saying, chopped? Maybe that's it? I don't know. But honestly, it was awesome. I like watching car videos. Anyways, we'll move on to more stuff. But I don't know, guys. Pick it up. Move forward. The tech in the Tesla is sick. You guys can do that. I love Tesla, but it's not that hard. No, it's not that hard. You could copy that or do even better, honestly, without a ton of frustrating. That's what's so frustrating about it. I'll go after it again, because I've got an older F-150. The brand new F-150 came out, the 2015 model. They advertised all these different things. I got caught up a little bit in the hype. Not like I was going to buy one. I was like, oh, man, this is going to be so cool. And I was really excited, because they weren't saying anything about that center console. Nobody's doing it right. Nobody's doing it right except for the Tesla. Get on the level. They are now tech pieces. Your big advertising feature that your truck can be a hotspot or your car can be a hotspot is not interesting. That's not engaging to me. You can go to any phone retailer up here. You can go to Rogers, Tellis, Wendt, any of them. Buy a little tiny capsule. I saw one that looked like a cute egg. Once you give it power, it gives you a 3G network. This is old. This is not new. This is not interesting. And especially when you're trying to market to a younger generation that's into tech, into their phones, you've got the Note 5 came out. Get something that is somewhat comparable to that level or the new LG phones, anything like that. Honestly, someone in the chat, Drosophilus, Drosopholis, I don't know, he said, you can't compare a 209, but 2009 Acura with a modern pickup truck, compare it to a modern Acura and you'll see differences. Valid point, except that I have and there isn't major ones. There's two screens, I think, but I just don't care about the second one. Because it's honestly just easier to do it with physical buttons. So I don't know, man. I did. And there wasn't significant change that I would expect from that many years of time gone by. Like your comment about the phones. Yeah. It's not even similar at all to the change that there has been in the phone market. Absolutely. All right, I think I beat this one up. Yeah. A little bit. Let's move on. Microsoft quietly rewrites. It's activation rules for Windows 10. This is from ZD Nets. I'm going to try to get you guys a link and I'll try to get it up on the screen and I'll do all the fun things. Apparently, the net result is that clean installs will be much easier. That totally caters to me. I'm a clean install guy. I always have been. I'm still on 8.1, but I'm just kind of waiting for a little bit, then I will be going to the 10, of course. And it'll be a clean install. That's what I want to do. I've never been a big fan of the upgrade experience. It also kind of forces me to clean my computer up. Yeah, that's one of the reasons why I kind of like it. Because honestly, the upgrade experience thing, I kind of agree I didn't like it before. Windows 10's upgrade experience is actually really good, though. Good. And I tried to test out the beta. And my whole idea was like, you know what? I'll try it. And if it doesn't work on the 3.4 mat, it'll be fine. And then I was like, oh, roll back? I can just roll back to my Windows 7 install? This will break everything, but let's try it. So I rolled it back and it was perfect. Really? Which was crazy. I never had a single problem. And then I have upgraded again once Windows 10 came out off that same install back up to Windows 10, and it was fine again. Wow. Which was actually pretty impressive. So yeah, I don't know. Kind of cool. The biggest change of all is that Windows 10's activation status is now stored online, which might be terrible for you or good for you, depending on who you are. After you successfully activate Windows 10 for the first time, the device will activate automatically in the future. No product key is required. Yeah. I don't know. Unwelcome change for those trying to do a clean install of Windows 10 without understanding the new activation landscape is a good point. But I don't know. I think people are going to be on the fence with this. Maybe let's straw pull it again and then move on. So I'm going to start a new one. Straw pulls are fantastic. I really like straw pulls. We could make our own, but considering they made this, like I've had someone make a Linus Media Group pull thing. And I was like, you know what? That's really cool. But we've been using these guys since forever. We're probably like the main people that use straw pull. I don't know. Maybe straw pull is way bigger than I realize. But I don't know. I just kind of want to use it. I'm sure you give them a lot of traffic. Why can't I type? I think I need to make a new one. There we go. While we're doing that, we've got one topic here that I don't think we'll talk about too much. Cable box rentals, a needless $19 billion industry. An average American household pays $231 per year on average for their cable box rental. Estimated 99% of cable consumers in the US rented their equipment. Senators who commissioned a study on this market, Ed Markley of Massachusetts and Richard Blumenthal. I'm sure that's wrong. Blumenthal? Apparently straw pull is huge. So I'm dumb. And they're massive. You guys are huge. So maybe you know. Basically just talking about cable boxes. I've never seen anyone else use straw pull. But apparently a bunch of people in Chattel, it's absolutely huge. So that's cool. I still want to use them because they're still awesome. Yeah. Squarespace. Build it beautiful. Beautiful build. Anyways, let's see how the straw pull is going. Let's see the results here. Turnip is destroyed. But generally people are saying that it's good. Yeah. What's up, Justin? Not anymore. Yeah, you've delayed. Thanks, though. I appreciate it. It's good. It's good. Yeah, so 26% of people are saying that it's good. 17% of people are saying that it's bad. With 57, my favorite number, no longer 57. That makes me sad. 56% of people saying that it is turnip. So that's interesting. I do like singing the good votes, though, because I haven't actually done it myself. So singing the good votes is, especially when they're warning people about doing fresh installs. So I like singing the good vote. That's great. Thanks, guys. Yeah, so I think that might conclude the show. Let's see if there's anything new here. Da, da, da, da. Is there anything else you wanted to talk about? What just happened? Just about the cable box. No. The camera was blinking red. And so I'm wondering if it is out of battery. If the camera died, that's super the end of the show. Could be a radio show now. Yeah, the camera's dead. It looks like it didn't plug it into the wall. They had extra batteries. I saw them playing and talking about extra batteries. I guess that's the end of the WAN show. For anyone wondering, yes, I will be doing a 24-hour stream tomorrow. It will be for charity. It will be for the Extra Life charity. So you can check out links to the Extra Life charity that I'll be running on my Twitter. I just tweeted out a few times. I'll tweet it out again after the show. Check it out tomorrow. Before noon, it will start. And then again, it will go for 24 hours. I guess that's it. I'll roll this because you guys can hopefully see it. I'm going to have to do it a few times so that it will start because our stuff kind of sucks. Yeah. Yeah. There we go. WAN show. Weekly failure. And no, that's how we're going. First base is off. So is the other. Thank you. I'll see you next time. It was nice talking to you. I hope you enjoyed it.
