it's full-frame oh yeah Oh baby cool get all the free and hopefully audio sounds good to all the frame up in their new mix alright so that was the first time we have set up like any sort of new audio solution in there just like ins tested it and it was just fine oh yeah right yeah most of the time there's a lot of chaos it's why I never troubleshoot something new pointless it's great it's a great way to do things never tested it alright I believe we are alive live to both YouTube and twitch hello everyone welcome to awesome Hardware episode 173 this is side B and if you miss site a you can go to Paul's channel I'll put a link in the description of my youtube video or you can go to youtube.com slash Paul's hard-hard where to catch the first half of the show we stream every single Tuesday at 5:30 p.m. Pacific time right here on twitch.tv slash awesome hardware and of course as I just mentioned we stream each half of the show to our respective YouTube channels also if you're just joining us or maybe you are already on site a you maybe happen to donate something in super chat will be reading the messages that you've attached to those donations right after this stream during the

stores 10% off all orders over 50 bucks and 20% off all orders if you spend a hundred by end of the show yes indeed all right oh there's one more announcement that I'd like to make if I may be so bold so wifey sauce and I recently bought a house so congratulations thank you and some people in the comments were suggesting that I tweet up the property brothers who have a very popular reality TV show on HGTV highly successful and just you know whatever just give it a world nothing to lose there so I tweeted at them I said hey property brothers want to make a pit stop in LA this could be magical property brothers hashtag property brothers YouTube edition I think it'd be cool I think it would as gamers Nexus commented on my tweet it would definitely expand their audience and also I think would be really good for some tech representation to a mainstream audience on television if they're in Vegas right now but they are in Vegas right now but you never know miracles you know what's crazy have happened so we're not too far from Vegas if you guys would like to I don't know maybe jump on this bandwagon and help me tweet this out to them you can just find them on Twitter and also paste a link to to to the tweet that I sent them as well because that would be freaking good I mean that would be my life first right here my wife is a vegan I post videos of computer stuff on the Internet everybody does three point five million dollars comedy if only if only that were the case that's a it's a it's a funny meme about that all the reality shows the house hunting shows and the house upgrade shows all right oh is that what they're referencing yes like the upgrades was like there's no way because they were in every show they introduced the couple and they're nice or whatever and then they eventually get to the point where like you know she you know makes arts and crafts that have leaves she finds on the ground did I you know I'm on it I write and I write poetry and I know whatever our budget is five million a budget four million dollar whatever I have to be honest I haven't really watched any of those shows maybe I've caught one or two with wifey sauce in the last year do you mean they're your favorite shows you watch them all the time probably those religious fan through and through but actually wifey sauce really does like them okay and thinks the things that kind of things are kind of hot so I really wouldn't be disappointed we do too now they don't reach out to me anyway if you guys want to tweet at them for fun go for it let's move on to some tech news however we have a lot to talk about today intel has their 28 core xeon processor the w3 175 x that's just been listed online for four thousand great British pounds I can't really figure out what that is in USD probably something like five thousand dollars maybe I don't know this articles from over Clark 3d and a lot of these a lot of this information was unveiled last week at their fall desktop launch event 1066 dollars okay six cents right now I was right on the money quite literally yeah just over 5k probably would be probably sell for an even flat 5k here in the here in the States that's reasonable I'm so unlocked first of all we're talking about an unlocked overclockable 28 core Xeon processor this is kind of a first of its kind in a lot of in a lot of ways six channel ddr4 memory support that's pretty badass you also have a dual-core boost of up to four point three gigahertz out of the box not too shabby 225 watt TDP rest assured you're gonna need at least you know probably 240 preferably a 280 or three sixty millimeter rad on there at least also consider that intel has been very cagey about their TDP ratings for processors they true the TDP listed is is not like the TDP running all cores at the top frequency that they list right so there is that very conservative estimate for sure and then they've also got ECC memory support and a bunch of other xeon class features on this chip it does require motherboards that are our server grade while at the same time also supporting overclocking which previously and they even again currently there are many boards that do that so Intel is actually partnered with gigabyte and asus to create motherboards that are qualified and ready for the job of just handling you know things like ECC memory but while still overclocking like an enthusiast grade cpu you don't have pictures of that was I supposed to is it not on the article uh no you can see some ridiculously right over engineered motherboards though from Asus like the one that we saw at the event last yeah I've posted that pictures of it okay yeah if you can find it finally those that I mean that's just gives you an idea what kind of serious business we're talking here yeah that's not logged in so it won't let me look at what did it have did it have like four or five eight ten TPS connectors it had dual 24 pin dual 24 I think it had like six Oasis and the the gigabyte that they were like okay someone had like six EPS connectors across the top sure so this thing I mean these these boards are gonna be absolutely insane you know if I mean what do you think man if a CPU is $5,000 how much is the is a flagship and other board for that gonna cost like maybe a grand a to grant I don't know I'm trying to balance my like appreciation that Intel is actually doing this with how absurdly impractical they're making the product itself it feels to me a lot like they're just trying to push back against the areas they're just trying to push back against AMD with the thread Ripper stuff and thread repair for what it sort of I mean it's very effective and it's very cost effective but there's still some advantages that Intel has bit or something like this I mean it's it seems a little bit more like on the like oh we said we were gonna do this so we're gonna do it but prices are ridiculous and like who knows how many of these are actually even gonna be available for sale but before the year ends right and I was actually gonna buy this like this is a niche within a neat yeah it's so yeah that's the board this is the ACS board it's about the Dominus extreme so dual 24 pins on this side yeah so six EPS are actually two of these are six pins so those are like let's probably pay wired as paid connectors right and then for eight pins along there and they've got like three or four fans going across the VRMs up there yeah as well as the fanned out here and the chipset yeah the socket is LGA 3647 looks like thread your Brahma which is yeah server socket that's very large I've also heard not the easiest socket to install onto huh if you're talking about a home user and then this is the gigabyte board that we saw copy Tex there look that that was going yes this one maybe not finished yeah this one seems a little bit more engineering sample II I guess and also there's no heat sinks on anything you're naked PCIe slots Jesus yeah that's crazy so yeah these boards are insane and as you can see six channel memory you've got twelve DIMM slots on each of these boards absolutely ridiculous interestingly enough these chips are not going to be featuring solder Tim like a lot of their other counterparts it's still gonna be polymer based thermal paste as existing Zeon's news so you can expect some dealers from these as well if you're trying to get paid for massoud of them for sure like when our designs a deleting kit for this how many of them like it'll be the equal amount to how many units are sold yeah privacy hughes is that anyone that's gonna name four or five thousand on this would would not not delete it i me a truffle keep an eye on those long enough so did we didn't say thank you to John by the way Knutson that's a that's a sidetrack I did say that he'd give us these beers and thing he did agree for it thank you thank you thank you again John he sent us not just the beer here's the last nation brewing yeah this is the mosaic IPA I'm drinking the IPA it's good for you no no no and then you're did the I all have one of the ghosts yeah grab the have a ghost is it a ghost no it's a the river or wait no what's it called ghost go say oh you mean the actual name of it it's the wind the wind yes but it's the wind it's a ghost dry Hauser with Citra hops and grapefruit it goes it goes it is it goes oh yes Graham's with Rosa okay and if I say that as if like of course Kyle that's because we looked it up before the show that's fine I know how to pronounced in educators of beers no good alright well thank you John we appreciate it and we got the shirt yeah the popcorn everything is amazing you are literally the best also truffles he's been our he's been our our main man for virgin dice for running on what three years now or something like that well for you he's awesome tonight tonight oh yeah I guess I was with him before you huh not too much longer but I was trained to imply that like then we've been doing much longer but oh oh I didn't really make it yeah that's not true anyway I don't know I lose track of time Oh dark raspberry is hazy this must be unfiltered also credits if you're gonna do a box of chocolates especially if their chocolates filled with something you know you're gonna you should always have well know you should know what you're gonna get because they should include this yeah clearly put your gum bought the cheap shit the chart with all the chocolates so you come with the tart what the hell you're about to put in your mouth stupid penny pincher you're just gonna throw a random chocolate in my mouth and be like oh I'm delighted with the surprise of flavor now I need I need to mentally prepare myself and then will the chocolates actually be arranged in this order of the chart so that it'll be like a wonder one as soon as you lift it up you I mean which one are you gonna go for first I was looking at that dark Irish cream mmm it's green yes there they are a true mark of of luxury these are some beautiful looking chocolate no way there they look better in person than in the pictures yeah I wonder how far it could be help them for stabbing up them without them all falling out completely damaged I got this that's too bad hey if I'm not spilling beer I'm spilling chocolate something else oh man this is a slightly easier to clean up and they don't you know damage hardware quite as easy Oh looks good are you gonna have one no no no why not cuz the because of sugar that I have no self-control Paul meaning if I have one I will eat half the box I see it's either it's all or nothing I'm like you have to treat me like an a recovery you know victim like I can't you shouldn't even be eating those in front of me technically it's rude and I'm offence to try to enable your you're enabling me right now well I mean they're very small I imagine just one of them probably wouldn't even be that's that's exactly what an addict would say yeah shall we move on to our next story Google Google Google Google what are you doing Google Google and then Paul will momentarily give us a full review on the chocolate truffles but you can't until we've watched it through the Google thing hexxus what's the context in talking about marina so there's a hex article it's really been all over the internet this morning Microsoft you know as we know has recently announced that they're ditching the edge HTML rendering engine to pretty much reinvent edge the browser as we know it in place of a chromium sort of open source code to improve the user experience they're gonna use chromium we're gonna use chromium sorry the new version of edge will be based on chromium yes yeah exactly this is gonna be a chromium edge type of experience and that will allow them to do a bunch of cool things but Joshua Paquita a former edge intern claims that the move to a chromium to chromium edge to chromium was was forced what was it forced by forced by Microsoft themselves and I'm sorry Google themselves apparently according to him on a online forum chrome app developers have actually been sort of sabotaging websites for lack of a better term so that they don't run as effectively or smoothly or as optimally for other browsers it's kind of shady so at one point edge was actually more power efficient than chrome at at at displaying YouTube pages it was actually way way more efficient on YouTube then then chrome was and then Google made a change to YouTube's code with a hidden empty div over YouTube videos that caused edge to start performing worse so it's a on that particular platform so if paper tells um they should be right there top shelf by the water-cooling stuff usually when I need paper towels the most when I'm water cooling so with with edge and especially with with edge sort of updating only biannually because it's you know it's been attached at the head set to Windows the operating system all this time they really only fix this issue with YouTube during the Windows 10 the wind 10 update in October so it you know they're kind of tied down from from that but with chromium edge the new edge will be detached from operating system and so they'll be able to update more frequently what what did you just do you have your piece of chocolate and my beer it's fun that's gonna enhance the flavor and your beard maybe your shaved my beard counts I can't bring it back no matter how much you how many times you ask because you can all you have to do is nothing he literally has a couch Oh is the easiest thing to bring back in the world um so anyway it's a little bit sketchy on on Google's part if this is true again we're just trusting the word right now we're only going on the word of some random intern ex intern from the edge development team but if it is true it's a little bit concerning because you know as much as you might be a fanboy of one thing or another at the end of the day competition is best and you you want other browsers in this case to be viable viable alternatives to even your favorite browser so the fact that you know Chrome or Google may well be sabotaging Microsoft edge means that they're really not you know like sabotaging another browser like Firefox for example isn't outside the realm of possibility and Firefox is a really good and still very popular and relevant browser that a lot of people prefer I know you use Firefox a lot Paul and I even use it sometimes so I'm using Firefox right now Kyle yes you yes you are damn it so you know hopefully your page doesn't crash any second now nope that's working just fine as google app devs are definitely watching our stream and paying close attention to the most relevant tech show in the world um so yeah you know this could also be an episode of a segment of oh joy I suppose but we'll keep a close eye on this there's also Google and some of the articles I've been reading about this today there's there's concern that this is seeding too much power over the Internet in general to Google yeah whoo Google already controls much that are the internet and they're they're huge when it comes to the direction it goes when it comes to write you know back-end development and stuff like that so not only do they have some of the most visited websites Google the most popular search engine and YouTube and everything but now we're talking like the majority of browsers are also going to be controlled by Google and that they can just take action in certain situations and people will have no choice but to go along with it and you just have to kind of hope that Google does the right thing which is often now you have to act like Google I wish they still I wish they would still push the don't be evil thing I feel like you even if it wasn't true just to just to just to make me feel better stand still some false hope that'll be nice sure all right next up we've got an article from CNET about apple lying apple has been lying eyes iphone x resolution and other phones in their lineup their new lineup there's a lawsuit that's alleging two plaintiffs have filed a lawsuit in the US District Court of Northern America or sorry Northern California in America alleging that Apple falsely advertised the screen sizes and pixel counts of the displays on its iPhone X iPhone s XS and iPhone X s max devices Apple didn't respond to requests for comment from seen it of course the suit alleges that Apple lied about the screen sizes by including non screen areas like the knotch and corners saying that the new line of phones art all scream as marketed your phone isn't all screen it's not a fully bezel is all screen design you've got a not you've got other corners that aren't actually accounting for other pixels that aren't really displaying anything you take you take the 24 36 by 11 25 resolution right you're not getting all those pixels if you just do length by width right you're not you cut out any very this is totally valid and even you know to to extend that a bit if you're actually even counting that the the physical pixels on the phone not all of them are containing a red green and blue sub pixel all right some of the iPhone we are talking about the iPhone according to the complaint the iPhone X allegedly only has two sub pixels per pixel which isn't a pixel we're talking about the iPhone no no no Paul Paul Paul I see what you did there you're sabotaging sabotaging the article you're sabotaging the segment you're trolling Paul be trolls trying to throw a wrench you know they they see they see me trollin and like a gesture they hate me are you done yes I not again what is it for support I know you don't want to go and try out again it support joke anyway let's move on you started it I know the loss it did pretend it never happened the lawsuit also claims that the iPhone 8 plus which is a much older phone has a higher quality screen than the iPhone X I'm sure it's a lot more expensive as well to buy an iPhone X that has an inferior quality screen according to these lawsuits so it's definitely been a lawsuit riddled year for Apple this isn't the first time that they've been under heat in this sense in March of earlier this year the company got sued by dozens of customers over a software tweak that throttled the iPhone battery and things like that in June another seat a suit was seeking five million dollars in damages over Apple watch screens having a tendency to crack shatter or detach from the body of the watch all of which seemed kind of unfortunate if you're sending that much money out of the single device I would prefer that not happened to my watch no definitely not I wanted to shed her like a piece of pirate lust they lost a fair amount of market cap I believe as well yeah it hasn't been the greatest year for Apple they've had a lot of controversial launches and definitely lawsuits up the yin-yang so we fell saying how 2019 fares for them would you like to continue talking about companies that are doing well Paul yeah they peaked in October at the share price of 232 Wow and they really plummeted almost to the point where they were down to 163 now which is where they were at the beginning of the year yeah oh wow remember you did a story about them reaching in the the total company valuation over a trillion dollars right now they're way down none of the market caps down to 780 just a paltry 788 billion Jesus pathetic that's still nots but you know this the sort of curve right here is very similar to the next company we're talking about as far as stock markets are concerned okay that's a great segue Oh beautiful maybe I was even redeemed myself from the stupid pixel joke as team by team playing gray and and and and full-blown and full-blown web Redemption right here caught live detectives well done Paul thank you so this article from extreme tech talks about invidious stock plunging you guys have probably heard a lot about this their soccer in in October was around two hundred and ninety dollars now it's below one hundred and fifty so they've they've tanked over fifty percent which really sucks for a lot of Nvidia investors why why did they take so hard well in short Nvidia fell short of the projections on cryptocurrency field GPU demand based on how the beginning of this year was going where everyone liked the GPU mining craze was just insane investors and and even in video themselves we're projecting that GPU sales around the holiday season would be even crazier than ever but as we all know the the pricing the value of Bitcoin and theorem I should say specifically GPU based mining cryptocurrencies have tanked hard and so the actual GPU demand has fallen off tremendously so that made its rebounded though it's rebounded since your article for one forty six forty five okay to 146 ninety-four okay they're on the up-and-up now it's a total GameChanger you gots a two point three four percent today Kyle no geez Wow everyone sit back everyone everyone so by your Nvidia stuck now okay so now that now that cryptocurrency is flopped Nvidia is really stuck with a surplus of stock and they announced that it would ship no mid-range GPUs in q4 of this year in order to clear inventory so stock takes a massive beating because of that and the numbers are pretty evident as well so Softbank which is the fourth largest investor of the company is rumored this is all just speculations all hearsay is rumored to sell some or all of its stake in the company which would make them some three billion dollars of profit on the trade remains to be seen if that's at all true it's also unclear how well and how much Turing factors into all of this and how well Turing GPUs have been selling overall if you look at you know just if you're just sort of like spot pricing here Amazon and Newegg shows that the r-tx 2070 has been selling the most out of the Turing family but it's still way behind the sales of other mid-range GPUs like the GTX 1060 and even the gtx 1070 what the article speculating though is that you know even though RT x hasn't been received with open arms necessarily it's most likely this the stock plummet is most likely due to the cryptocurrency hangover that we're currently experiencing and it also mentions that you know stocks like these are prone to fluctuate a bit all the time but nvidia is still pretty rock-solid in terms of the hardware and the technology that they're bringing to the table it's not like you know that they really made any bad or you know grossly you know misinformed decisions or anything like that they still are really solid from a fundamental hardware level you you could accuse them of betting over betting what level of production they should have done for the ten series during the cryptocurrency mining crisis and definitely in fact that they have so much inventory sitting on shelves right now is part of that but another thing another point they're sort of an another way of looking at that I was reading about was that their price was pretty inflated for quite a while because of cryptocurrency mining because of the demand right GPUs and everything so you could somewhat look at this as a correction although it's a pretty striking one because at the beginning of the year they were at 196 so this is still about 50 points down from that right peak was 292 so damn there you go cray cray next up we've got an article from hexxus once again about intel finally coming out with some branding information on its new discreet GPUs we're calling these they're calling these the X or X like where the e is like it's like x squared but x squared power of X e to the power of e that's how that's how the brand name is pronounced as well the new Intel ^ e graphics processors I will never buy one of those how they're actually gonna brand it hopefully it's just called XE or yeah hopefully it's just XE because I like to get some explanation of how it's supposed to be pronounced cuz that's a stupid name why is the E in superscript Y in it anyway it looks like the Internet Explorer II that's true I hope that's not the actual and why is the X cracow the X obviously has a foundation problem here with its with its left leg dragging right up looks like it needs a root canal G I want to call it as G she she she she she she like a the internal she I got Chinese carrot is that a Chinese character she I'm sure she Jing there's so many in huge any Chinese characters changing her location she Qing Feng okay she she what is this miles probably so pretty but I'm making fun of it yeah it's the poor guy I just kidding laughs so I don't know it's it's the XE I'm just gonna call it XE for for now for the sake of convenience the slides were showing that the graphics will arrive by the Year 2040 um also notice that the the graph that you were showing earlier the y-axis and the actual performance curve looks a bit underwhelming but hopefully that's just not accurate at all because those are just integrated graphics that it's comparing it to it doesn't seem to be tapering this curve yeah yeah which which isn't great so hopefully that's not accurate and given that there's absolutely no numbers on either of the access access except 2020 right here right um that's really probably shouldn't read too much into it yeah so the there wasn't much else information about this discrete GPU the part that the XE line will be also will be integrated into integrated graphics as well so XE that technology whatever technology is being harnessed their weight we're going to integrate their graphics into well the the whatever like the actual technology or architecture is going to be integrated in you like it's kind of like Vega right like you've got Vega Rx Vega desktop GPUs but you've also got integrated Vega graphics so it's gonna be that sort of thing so it will be a flexible scalable deep graphics architecture exactly okay yeah and then so there's a lot of different there's sort of a spectrum of performance possibilities here with XE and they've also showed off their the first sample of the Intel I don't know no idea how to pronounce this full of arrows for that well they had us oh yeah what are you mark Super Mario looks at AI it's little and Italian loads in there this is the Intel they handles Nvidia from a different route the air the center syllable so the Intel for the arrows 3d stack at the logic achiever will be a new way of a building a processor you know because of the fragmenting of various elements so would you take or you take a CPU you cut it into a bunch of pieces and then you take those pieces and you turn them into a thin layers you're stuck at the lighting or some type of each other is it am I still Italian or have I migrated to a completely different that's here other I feel like I was your invitation of your other Italian cousin dial him up man really has no end so so basically vamoose I really can't say it any of those I don't know you kind of it reminds me of HBM where they're actually stacking elements of memory chips they're laying right on top of each other in a 3d vertical format in order to save space and that's kind of what Intel is doing here but with the actual CPU makeup and so you have different elements of a CPU being layered on top of each other and that's in in at the end of the day I think the main goal of theirs with with this whole initiative is to be able to create full chips at 10 10 nanometers scale because that's one of the biggest challenges that Intel's been facing over the last couple of years and so the sample that they were showing off measured just 12 nanometers but only one millimeter thick even though it's a 3d stack design so hopefully this will help propel 10 nanometer into the mainstream like big little it's like big little big like arms big little there's a big CPU core and then they're smaller what kind of courses yeah there's atom course there's a sunny Cove core and then there's atom quarter eighty course there's a hybrid x86 I love that design atoms great it's interesting yeah all right so that's cool if they're showing up some sample they had a working sample there as well they were testing out you guys can investigate further if you like but let's move under the beavers report yeah things here before before we close out this is an article from CNN and it's about Alfonso Ribeiro suing fortnight or Epic Games and in take-two Interactive's somewhere over all the Carlton dance in their game so I don't know if you guys are familiar but Carlton is a character from Fresh Prince of bel-air Fresh Prince of bel-air which was a very very popular 80's 90's TV show that I actually grew up watching how about you Paul oh yeah we would watch you would get around the telly and watch this all the time and this is a famous Emmy this was he was just iconically known for this dance which was typically performed to the tune of Tom Jones's it's not unusual so it's not unusual to be look by anyone it was kind of swinging our motion well that that our motion that exact dance is now an emote within the fortnight game and alfonso ribeiro which is the actors name who played Carlton infrareds bel-air who's also now the current host of America's Funniest Home Videos is now filing a lawsuit against epic and take-two interactive software incorporated saying that they have unfairly profited from using his likeness and from exploiting his protective creative expression the lawsuit asks the California federal court to bar the game devs from using selling or displaying the dance so it's also called trash did you mention that yes it's called for obvious of course obvious ripoff it didn't even it's not even called Carlton they don't even give him that you know they had to they abused Will Smith's wrapper to me Lee is also suing yes two million also has a dance in there and did you get to get the backpack kid the OL floss backpack kid has also joined the lawsuit backpack kid yes so there's a lot of people singing epic right now oh yeah for all these emotes that they just kind of snagged it's a little bit irresponsible it's interesting to me like I wonder what the courts gonna rule here because Alfonso Roberto he's just an actor and I feel like the Carlton dance he's only famous for doing the Colton dance within the franchise that is or the IP that his Fresh Prince of bel-air does he actually does the actor own that move is that really is that hey he also went on Dancing with the Stars did he do that was that like did he do that move he specifically did that move okay him one of the dances so maybe me it's it's I feel like it's a gray area it'll be interesting to see where the court draws the line when does a dance move for something like that become yours if it was initially something that you were you know a role that you were hired to do by a different company is that the property I mean maybe they'll look into the contracts that he signed with you know Fresh Prince of ballet or the production company they are to see if you know this this extends to that the interesting thing is that he's gone on record in the past talking about it because it's one of those things that became kind of culturally significant the Carlton dance became a thing and he said that he copied it from Courtney Cox Courtney Cox dancing specifically I think to that song so I guess there is some legal precedent precedent to this going back like you can copyright a dance routine like a choreographer would be the artist of a new routine and you would expect that given that artists have some protection for their work that somebody who created something like that would have some legal standing when it comes to you know if somebody else took their work and did something whether it also depends like how derivative it was was a change was modified or did they kind of copy and paste it right here you're talking about something that's historically not been meleave in past lawsuits and this is just from some articles I read on this earlier today have ruled that short little dance moves aren't protected by copyright in that way so I was gonna say it seems like so too insignificant or not unique enough to be but I'd be written in the past you could argue that there really hasn't been a medium such as a video game like fortnight I would say truly like the prayer why I this reminds me of like World of Warcraft World of Warcraft has a bunch of dances back in the day you can make your character dance and they had some that were taken from popular culture and stuff like that but they had like like the derf did like the Russian dance and whatever so there's like traditional dances like that so here you have the ability that probably hasn't really been existed in the past to take something that was created a short little snippet of a dance sure digitally recreate it to package that and then include it as part of a product that's being sold very successfully as for tonight is and so naturally you have people who are like and a lot of see these situations people will see their content being used but not necessarily profited from if somebody takes your video or something and they're like make something else and like oh that's money whatever oh there would be a particular and they're selling it and they're making money off of it right well then I think there's a little bit more like of a standing for that so the a totally different story of fortnight wasn't it the number one game in the world yeah and then there's this there's some gray area in between and everything there's also the opposite side of it which is like well apply this to like YouTube or something like that YouTube is post to an insane amount of derivative works people who take other people's works and like whether you're talking about something like a reaction video where they actually show it directly and they're just sitting there reacting to likes people trying to take other people's dance routines and do them themselves and post back to their YouTube channel like it's a very challenging to I feel like create a legal framework that says here's where you slice lies exactly well this is okay right and like on and then on this side it's like exploitation and there and and then the people should yeah so it's gonna boil down to the judge at the end the day however the judge sees it how they perceive all this so let's see how it goes and and my I mean my hope would be that whatever they do decide doesn't overflow to the point where it's too restrictive to where people creating derivative content from stuff like small dances and everything like so you know like the stuff we talk about in EU with the the you tube the the EU laws that are gonna affect YouTube and stuff it's like you know there needs to be some ability for people to just make stuff up yeah but it all comes down to profit are you making money from something somebody else great right like are they selling the fresh emote are they selling the Carlton its emote is that like something you can pay extra for or have to pay extra for to unlock you could argue that because in fortnight I don't think you get the dance moves right away that's a pretty high end I haven't played it enough but I believe right some people in Chad are saying that those dance moves are for sale yes so that's that's definitely that definitely builds a case for mr. Revere Ribeira so hope they get some of that fortnight money I mean given how successful fortnight has been if you underst know its socialist nevermind everyone gets the dollar then Tendo switch you know switch thanks hot hardware for this article basically a very quick article saying that the Nintendo switch has been crowned the fastest selling game console for this generation since its launch in March of 2017 the switch has sold more than eight point seven units eight point seven whoever got that 70% of a switch you meant eight point seven million right yes the article actually only it's a typo in the art that is specifically a type a time they're talking it the author because it says eight point seven unit so whoever that hardware with this Paul I'll pick it up Paul come on Paul's telling you Paul but you got to check your work man so they probably meant eight point seven million units that seems to be more realistic somebody didn't get one of the controllers was a bootleg version so this console has outpaced every other current gen console in the United States during the same point in their respective life cycles so it's um it's the biggest just most popular selling console for 2018 this wins it beats out the Xbox one whether you talk about the Xbox one ass or X beats up the PlayStation 4 Pro and so forth there's a quote here it's and I'll just read it out we are thrilled to see such reaction from the consumers in the second holiday season for Nintendo's switch that's from Nintendo of America's senior VP Doug Bowser his last name is Bowser it's spelled the same way have I completely missed this am I just so out of touch that I never realized that the intent of America's senior VP's last name is freaking Bowser what are that frickin odds there's no way there's no way that I've missed the thing that makes me think this is all just a simulation right yeah then this is this is the actual game devs just hint this is dropping little Easter eggs you know this is like ready player one whoever can find my little little Easter eggs to that this is all really just a simulation yep wins the grand prize and I'll grant you real life in the real world outside of this little virtual life that you're in this is ridiculous doesn't look like anything to be okay Bernard spoilers so so the switch and this is also kind of cool because you know the switch isn't like the most muscle doesn't have the most muscle out of all the consoles it's it's weaker from a horsepower sort of processing power standpoint than the Xbox one X or the PlayStation 4 Pro but it has a really strong lineup of games and I think that's what really makes a console shine these days or any platform for that matter PC is the lineup of games that you that it offers so and Nintendo switch oh my god it's had what Legend of Zelda breath of the wild which was I don't know if that won Game of the Year last year but it certainly was a runner-up at least and then we they also have Super Mario Odyssey Mario Kart 8 deluxe and then just recently Super Smash Brothers ultimate which has been the fastest selling game on the Nintendo switch in history selling three million units in 11 days so there's there's just all kinds of and I've played the game competitively how many copies did you buy I oh I bought three no I probably bought one I've only bought one copy but I haven't not been more obsessed with any game in the last three years so you've been playing a lot of Super Smash Brothers I haven't been playing a lot of it but I've been I've been playing as much as I can because I just you know obviously like when you do other things you I need to finish this other thing so I can play more Super Smash Brothers it is a good incentive and and the fact that is that it the way that in ten dos which is designed where I can just like undock it so if like you know wifey sauce and I have to drive to the new house and she's driving I can just play it in the car has been has been really nice never I've never played mobile video games in the car I'm prone to being too getting carsick carsick though so I think that would I won't get carsick just like a BK me too no only if I'm going up to Big Bear like I'm a swarthy you know Road or something like that but usually I can handle if it's just like a straight line in the freeway but that game oh my god I love it maybe we can do some after parties in the future with that game I'm sure you're down Paul I'm down and then we've got one more article here from MTO news about rapper Soulja Boy potentially facing mad jail time for selling bootleg consoles really this is uh this is he's a rapper and he used to be I guess his thing isn't used to be relevant really quickly follow tell me is that a malwarebytes logo on his forehead because it kind of looks like this I mean it might be a wu-tang logo looks but it looks like malwarebytes just just for the first glance when I first saw it I was like is the head of malwarebytes for a debt-based at so it's gonna it's gonna a be I could be I could be totally wrong not look at this there's an hour guys it's an hour Beck's look and then there's and there's Soulja Boy's forehead I mean maybe a little fatter it's a little fatter yeah when I looked at I was literally comparing it side-by-side I didn't pull up a logo I just just thought yeah okay yeah like someone in chat confirmed its its wu-tang most likely which is what I thought but being at the tech nerd I that I am I initially saw malwarebytes and now i cannot unsee so anyway this dude is ridiculous um Nintendo is threatening to press criminal charges against this guy over fake game consoles that he's selling on his website these consoles as you can see are completely fake there they actually have bootlegged roms Oh bootleg roms on them and the actual you know they're not actually his consoles he's just buying them from China and branding them slapping a name on slapping name on him basically it's just om and they're total garbage he's you can actually buy these on Aliexpress Aliexpress whatever for a lot cheaper than what he's selling them on his site so don't you I don't care if you're a fan of his do not buy these they're just not legit they're not good quality and you can even if you absolutely have to buy it you can buy it cheaper elsewhere so anyway he's just being an idiot with how he's handling all this this is um maybe a publicity stunt you know maybe he's sick of being irrelevant so you know the last people the last time people talked about Soulja Boy was in the you know 2007-2008 era and now he's coming out with Superman I like to call this shit for me I was in bed but it could end up putting him in prison according to the trailer this guy goes full full of full-blown crank that what do you call the rink that Soulja Boy know what's the channel that destroys everything oh oh destroyer and jerry-rigged no no the one actual physical destruction that's the channel where they just take tech techrax techrax oh I don't even know right oh geez oh wow ah just take it perhaps that perhaps is the product that affords this is his channel is this how all of the reviews end no I don't I don't know what this this is mad little pixel madla oh yeah thousand subscribers who obviously didn't think much of this no definitely not Wow hey I appreciate the I appreciate the honesty yeah just just really paints a picture it's just joy uh giving it the old pentester so feel him feel been gay all been test so according to the trademark counterfeiting act imprisonment for the first offense of doing something like this what Soulja Boy has done is at the 10 years and 20 years of imprisonment for repeat offenders which a lot of people have argued he has done he could be facing 20 years jail time or or for selling these stupid bootleg consoles with Nintendo roms on them there's a Game Boy handheld device that he began selling on his website that's that's what initially caught Nintendo's attention he's now selling a more expensive console called the Soulja Boy fuse or something like that that you know he's saying was like six hundred and fifty dollars but you can get it for the low low price of for Honda what what a deal and there's some these and there's nobody sees this right okay this is because it's an empty element article right with it was it was hard to find an actual like gamer based or actual tech enthusiast focused publisher for this article but I had heard it passed around on the internet and I thought it was worth talking about four games report so don't buy anything from soldier boy so but you see some geo mean capsule from soldier boy it's a moral the story it's not nothing too hard not everyone it's not something you would immediately think you should do but that's hopefully it's a bad idea yeah so that's all for my half y'all I guess we can skip over to after party but yeah but for now thank you very much for watching and tousle on my video feel free to do timestamps in the description or in the comments i'll pinion and stuff and if you want to find a link to the after party it is in my description as well groobie we'll be right back guys see ya
