2014 Tech! Ask Me #010

2013-12-17
hey guys this is Austin and today I'm here with ask me we're going over all kinds of questions straight from you guys what are you excited to see it's CES this year CES is always filled with lots of awesome stuff and in fact this will actually be my fourth year going but as far as things that really jump out at me bow should be there and they'll be showing off their own steam machine which would be cool so that'll be the actual box that you can buy directly from valve as well as the guys from oculus trip should also be there possibly showing off a new version of the rift and if they do I'm going to be all over that so if you guys should definitely keep an eye out early January I'll be doing lots and lots of coverage from CES so watch it please how many pounds of hair gel do you use every day well the bottle says 9 ounces so I use about 2 or 3 of those a day so you can kind of do the math for yourself what's the biggest tech disaster to ever happen to you so this actually happened a few years ago at CES so this was the very first time I had ever had the opportunity to actually travel and go grab some videos for my channel if you guys don't know CES is the big Consumer Electronics Show that happens every January in Las Vegas so I was super excited super pumped so I went out there and I filmed a ton of videos I mean I think during the for show days it probably filmed like 30 or 40 videos just totally an insane amount and I posted some of them while I was there but I had to go back home so got on the plane flew back but the problem was I really hadn't flown all that often up until that point so I didn't realize that you really aren't supposed to put your laptop like in your normal luggage and above you you know and like the overhead bins so I got home I turned on my laptop and it was dead so at some point with getting on the plane taking it off and throwing it in like luggage cars everything the laptop hard drive had died so I lost a huge chunk of my footage from CES which was a really really big bummer but yeah that just goes to show you have backups lots of backups what our Google+ comments there's a brand new youtube comment systems that everyone absolutely loves even though most people just don't comment anymore but it totally an improvement will you be picking up a Moto G I know I am to add to the Motorola family actually I've been using the Moto G as my main phone lately so I'll have a full review up here in the next week or two but spoiler alert it's actually a really good little phone do you even lift do I left watch this show got the iPad air what is the best cooling is where the way to go or is it a waste of time and money it depends on your build I'd say for the majority of pcs air cooling is just fine it's all you need however if you do want to get a little bit of extra performance you don't mind spending a little bit more money getting something like a closed-loop cooler or so something like a courser h 110 or even a full water cooling loop can absolutely get you more performance but a lot of the times it's really not going to be worth it unless you do have some very high end parts what's your advice for being successful on YouTube and how are you recognized by other companies to give you free review units it really boils down to lots of hard work and constantly being able to improve yourself so it's not going to happen overnight so expect to give it a month two months six months a year two years however long it takes but the big thing is just be able to put a lot of time energy and effort into it to make it happen as far as being able to get free review units free in review units are not always the same thing so a lot of times when a company sends me a phone or a computer or whatever it's just a loaner so they'll give it to me I'll do a video on it and when I'm done and ship it back so as far as how I actually get this kind of stuff you really need to be able to show value to the company so send them an email say hey look this is who I am this is what I do I have this many subscribers this me views etc etc and show them why if they do take a chance and send you something that you will make it worth it for them if someone is phobophobia fear or phobias does that mean they are afraid of the fact that they are afraid of being afraid yes is the answer I think do you prefer Android or Apple since the iPhone 5s and Nexus 5 recently came out I've switched back and forth between iOS and Android quite a few times so for the last year and a half I've been on Android however since the iPhone 5s came out I've actually switched over to it so I did give the Nexus 5 a shot and I used it for about a week or two but the problem was the battery life was just off I couldn't even come close to being able to make it through a full day whereas with the iPhone that's not really a big problem so I like the Nexus 5 I know a lot of people don't really have any battery issues but for me I was charging it like twice a day just not good why is your hair up I feel like we've already been over this lots and lots and lots of hair gel you don't know how many takes I just had to do with that my hair is like dripping right now so if you guys have any questions you'd like me to go over next time on ask me feel free to let me know over on Twitter Facebook and Google+ and all those links will be in the description of this video also I want to give a big shout out to my friends over H H Greg who are giving away twelve Xbox ones today so if you guys want to get in on this giveaway it's going to
