Tomorrow Daily - H1Z1 devs letting banned cheaters back in, but there's a catch, Ep. 183

2015-05-26
on today's show a robot that learns through its mistakes cockroach robots they can run faster than we can and cheaters at video games begging for forgiveness nothing tastes better delicious tomorrow daily greetings citizens of the internet welcome to tomorrow daily the vesti talk show in the known universe we are back I'm ashley's gether we were on another temporal plane Jeremy's always kill anonymous we home of them if you're in the u.s. we hope you enjoyed your holiday we did he's relaxed we enjoyed your holiday we enjoyed your holiday for you if he didn't I play guacamelee all weekend that's what I did and it was cool yeah it was amazing it's up its your PlayStation Plus game if you have ps4 it's free so trust me guys just if you like platforming uh-huh or lucha doors go get that guy who doesn't love lucha doors but yeah good times good times good weekend it's really good yeah but back ready for some action yes are you let's hit those headlines okay sometimes I worry that you've run out of batteries you stopped mid-sentence and then I'm like oh no I have to wind up you're so used to like a format of a show that I'm just like I'm like not about that I know I'm like throw it throwing rowlett we're the Internet we're the open forum show with a lot of wiggle room there's no edits watch see that was awkward now let's see if we couldn't edit that out so so let's get started this one is a lot of fun this one is sure to tap into everyone's the gamer inside of them because we've all experienced a gamer that has been cheating online whether it be wall hacks or aimbots or any more like some sort of money exploit or just something like that well h1n1 is a zombie game that's kind of in like what is it like clopin beta yeah and you can like pay to get early access girl well they've actually been banning people they've banned 30,000 accounts of people that have been cheating in the game okay that's not what the story that's not what the story is the story is that they've decided that they'll allow those cheaters back into the game if they make a video pleading as to why they should be let back into the game this is a decision by the president of the game's development company John Smedley who decided to take bannings as an opportunity to raise awareness about cheating he's like cheaters I want your face on the screen saying that you made a mistake and so there's been video that people have made because they put a lot of hours into this and it banks that they don't want to lose all of that work so I mean they could just make another account but they don't want you so if you check out his Twitter account he's um retweeted a few people that have made videos they're really put their people are so lame cuz look they try to excuse themselves to like look a lot of people were doing that exploit and I just didn't want to be left out yeah and they're like I'm over two minutes long of them and it sounds like they like ran over your dog and they're like I samurais dad but anyway only five people have been allowed back into the game and I think he's cutting it off there john is a John said a feisty little dude that give the guy that a company he is very serious about well I like this I like this though this isn't good just ate let me give you a little bit more information about the cheat real quick so the cheat that they were using is called ESP so this basically if you don't know h1n1 it's a big open world game there's nice a whole lot of like if you get killed in this games it you lose everything so there's a lot of reason to cheat so I mean there's a lot of reason to like make sure you're okay stay alive they are we using the app kaim sorry they've been using the exploit or the hack this health ESP which lets people know where you are on the map and lets you see through walls basically a big hack it sounds like huge it's making it vulnerable but it's it is a hack and that is a superpower and it came like h1z1 so there you go that's that's what we're looking at here so the question is how excited are you like I mean like how how cool is this is this is this a cool thing listen I really like this I mean of course I would like it better if he would have been like oh give your apology videos and maybe we'll let you back in and then a month later after these third like third let's say half 15,000 people make these videos he's like I'm just kidding no you're getting back in like holy my video course but I'm probably meaner than John Smedley which is why I don't run a game company that's why I host a show but I like that he's doing this because it gets these people to sort of a pot just apologize like it's so hard for people to admit that they were wrong and they did something dumb and to just say listen I messed up like I should not have done this I would like my account back this is the exploit that I used and I like that he's using this as an opportunity to raise awareness about cheating in that game because it is really prevalent like I know I have a few friends who play the early access and they hate cheaters there's like it's a nightmare like having to deal with this and I think this argument that's like crazy you know nonsensical argument of all everyone else was doing it like so okay I'm going to go ahead and play slight devils em okay I hate cheaters as well okay um I actually used to play a wolf inside enemy territory on a in bot server on purpose it was fun okay so a lot of fun but what makes sense if you've ever played any of these games where it just was it was snowballing more and more and more and more people cheating to the plinth was almost not a fun game for you anymore right you in your mind are like well I've got to balance this out I'm not going to be invincible which that one guy was like I didn't turn that on cuz I didn't feel like that was fair yeah so like and that's just devil's advocate I totally don't agree with cheating right taking the fun away from the people that are playing the game fair right so it's great I think this is a great way it's a like-kind of like stir up the community and show expose these people and its really great but different does to the question of the day yes our hashtag ledee our hashtag of the day teeny cheats RT did she uh we would like to know from you what should gamers if they're cheating what should they have to do to make up for cheating so you catch somebody cheating and they want to be allowed back in the game what should they have to do to make up for that cheating it to be allowed back in like five hundred push-ups or should they have to let go to three rosaries should they have to go to like you know town hall and let go up there and sing i'm a little teapot like what should they have to do should they have to go it and like you know tell their parents they don't love them i mean like what should they have to do so with the parents saying this is what i was thinking you're going straight appearances I'm going straight to parents is you you should have to go to your parent record yourself you know Jimmy Kimmel does that I told my kids i ate all their halloween candy thing okay so you should have to go if you're cheater and your account gets banned you want back in you should have to go to you're the parent who's the disciplinarian in your life whether that's your mom or your dad or your grandpa whoever it is the person who's the dist Flammarion in your life person who would be most disappointed in you for cheating and you should have to tell them on camera what you did and why you did it and you should ask them to forgive you and if they forgive you then maybe you get a chance at coming back into the game I think my parents just be like well my actually my mom's a gamer my dad would you feel like I don't care right the person who would understand like that you cheat like it's not about gaming but just saying like I cheated and I'm really sorry and I apologize and I'll never do it again and this is why I did it and then you say like but I need your forgiveness so are you willing would you be willing to forgive me for doing something like that and then you see what they say I think they should have to show I think they should have to publicly share their browser history for the last two days oh that's good so yeah they got it's a little bit of an it exposes you a little bit yeah you screwed up a lot of people's time they have to expose your time a little bit and it's kind of both the digital medium kind of punishment attiki Halen on there you go take that cheaters oh and Claire tor browser history before Easter like I kind of just want to make one of those h1n1 like apology videos just to make I'm not like I haven't I sure put it on time in it hey guys like no like they'll have like sweet headsets like their lives are okay won't matter but anyway okay so good so let's talk about velocities nope um I don't want to kale doesn't like spiders as much as I don't like cockroaches like I hate coverage yeah they're gonna survive the apocalypse they will um and and these these robots that are like cockroaches might also survived the apocalypse this is kind of crazy so these are two robots that look similar but act differently and they have similar names so there's the veloci and then there's that one which that was at real time that's real-time playback that slowed down five times this is the 2x veloci wrote and the 2x veloci road can run at 11 miles per hour that is 17.6 km/h for those of you who don't for those of you use the metric system which is pretty much everywhere else in the in the world yeah so they slow it down so that you can get a good look at it both these robots are from UC Berkeley and it's really interesting because they talk about they said we scaled up this basically the motion of the legs to speed him up and the only thing that kept him from not going any faster than love of miles per hour is the legs start it's the structure of the little robot started flying off like legs started to like pieces of robot started like falling off of it because it was going too fast too fast too furious and and so this this little cockroach bot they're saying now they want to work on stronger structural integrity so that they can just see how far exactly they can like scale this thing up and how fast they can make a go slightly creepy and then there's the velocerator veloci road which is this one and it's acting as kind of like an aircraft carrier for this other robot that's about to take off I love this video so much um so this one is launching a micro aerial vehicle looks like a little bird but why why why well why so I think parts of this our scale so scalability so over time if you can imagine this on a much larger scale like that's something that's really cool what do you mean like larger roaches know like like a bunch of these things whoa or actual plane okay you know yeah scalability always one thing to consider they didn't really specifically mention like a goal they were like oh we're gonna make it do this in the future like there wasn't that but um there are a lot of we've seen a lot of robots that have sort of insect like capabilities and I think a big part of these are just sort of like how can we push these little robots to their limits and how can we apply that knowledge to other robotics that we are working on so I think this is really I think it's so cool and really just to watch that little cockroach robots Wyatt yeah I'm very interesting how they scale it up considering that if they go too fast it all parts are yeah yeah I think that was really that's just right where you imagine like I'd like a utopian / dystopian world where the cops like use that they're like we got our we got this guy running from us and they just send a horde of these little cockroach isn'ta guys like know it gets like overtaken just like and then they it's like the locusts and the mummy it's like and then all of a sudden they all go by and it's just like a little pile of skeleton and they're just like well peace that's it and all he did was steal like a candy bar yeah no I'm serious John that's robot justice chakra cockroach robot justice yeah good khakhra I don't think that's really coming this fall on CBS now I do think it's key it is like petritsky okay so and then there's another thing from UC Berkeley that's our third story and this is actually from the robotics people over at this as a team working on this robot called brett over at UC berkeley real name that's bad yeah yeah so usually you teach a robot to do something by programming a very specific line of code in it so you say like this is how they do a thing I mean you give it all of its instructions and then it does it so this team at UC Berkeley is showing off Brett which learns via trial and error so you can see he's trying things out and he's like okay well maybe this is right maybe this is right kind of a big step in the field of AI like a big step forward because this robot was given a series of algorithms to learn a series of tasks like a couple things are putting together this toy plane that we're looking at right now and then also screwing on a water bottle cap but without knowledge of its surroundings so they would put pieces on the on the table in front of it and he would autonomously figure out exactly how to kind of put these things together so there were two different two different ways of doing this the team gave Brent information about what the objects surrounding him looked like and where they were and when they did that he was able to complete these tasks in about ten minutes so pretty quickly but if they didn't if they said you need Brett you the robot needs to figure out what the objects are around you and locate them so and also figure out where they are the process took about three hours from what I had seen they they had done this test a bunch of times but you have for testing purposes it looked like they'd like kind of reset it every time to sort of say like we want to make sure that we're seeing what we're actually what we think we're seeing good so a pretty interesting stuff and I would be really curious to see how this robot Brett develops with better processing power which is the thing they were saying is really holding them back from faster times of him like figuring out exactly what's in front of him where it's located and like putting it all together mm-hmm pretty cool cool yeah just saying really awesome and also again another thing to add to the checklist of this been a scary year and advancements of robotics very true very true there's a lot of crazy good robotic stuff going on right now yep which is they're learning which is cool but here ya next year very scary learn our lesson alright guys we're gonna take a quick break we will be back with new releases because it's Tuesday but before we go of course we have to show you guys Mario Kart fury road so check this out we'll be right back welcome back to the show we've returned it's a Tuesday which means it's time for us to tell you all the things that will be draining our wallet this week it is time for new releases now I have to preface all this with kayla is getting a brand new fancy fancy McBan kaming rig this week it just ships it Jay I just got the email just at 20 minutes ago okay it's just shifts so it's on its way oh yeah winging its way here hopefully be a drone and which means kale will be completely he'll be off the grid you will be an all be on the gear he'll be inside his computer but like the matrix pages okay so why what do you got for me but so for any of you out there who's not kale and will not be obsessing over their new amazing pc this weak-ass platoon is coming out for wii u this friday which i know a lot of people are excited about those of us who have we use and love them i'm really excited about it because it's a really fun game I've been playing the global test fires I didn't play the one this last weekend but I played the tuba for that and it was a blast and I like it and it's a fun game and I've got my amiibos pre-ordered they're coming in sometime this week I should be getting them there's been a lot of people that have converted towards being really excited about this it's a brand new IP yeah and it may not look like it's it's you know appealing to everybody but apparently the game plays incredibly solid and it's very it's very unique but it's very addicting yeah and very competitive and there's so many different unique modes and characters and there's been I forgot boogie for whatever his name is played this and loved it a lot of gamer a lot of like live streamers and stuff like that'd be like oh my god this is gonna be the next thing that I'm going to play so I like that the matches are all three minutes each like that's that basically when you go online and you play these online matches it doesn't matter how big the map is or how small it is it's three minutes like there's no like oh captions I like matches are always over in three minutes like it does so there's always a chance to come back okay there's always a chance to come back you can always rally if there's enough to you know there's it always feels like you have enough time even if you start off a little slow you there's time to come back producer Logan's excited about this right yeah Logan and I are gonna be playing slow tune this weekend um I am NOT going to knowing that this weekend I would I'd love to I heard that everybody is gonna be playing this really it'll just be me and on twitch and you guys completely yeah yeah everyone will be anybody who wants alternate programming tune in to kales cello playing The Witcher grandpa Lorenzo and then also in theaters this week the rock returns to the silver screen with San Andreas yeah which is a movie I can't see because it freaks me out too much because I actually use their to the rock next to San Andreas and I'm also terrified the Rock will somehow be involved in my untimely demise he's just gonna do it Ashley joke please this movie's probably gonna rock get out files your joke file it and also I love it um but yeah I like a Djinni i did did art how are you like i don't really i love disaster movie visuals huh but i don't really like disaster movies except for if there's like an alien invasion of some sort yeah producer Logan you're excite you like movies with widespread destruction to write yeah loves a disaster movie so I mean I think there's a lot of I would call it disaster porn there's a lot of that in this movie and but for me i hate the like this is obviously the greatest fear of my life being a lifelong southern californian is the big one like that's the thing everyone is always like it's always looming the back of our minds like we don't necessarily we I don't change my life or go about my days any differently because I'm scared of a giant earthquake but I'm also you know it's it's a thing that is a real fear I'd be bigger on these movies if they were like Game of Thrones and you didn't know who's gonna die but you always know the main character is gonna make it just right guys out of the Senate dress balls and stuff like that so that's why I like these are just kind of CG porn yeah they are so that's why there's got to be an alien invasion for me because you never know you just never know it's true it's true um did you see that video by the way where he the rock I don't know if you guys see anything yeah he married and he was the officiant I'd like this guy this journalists wedding who it was a surprise of the journalists but they set up this whole secret thing with a rock like officiated his way it was Chris check it out it's on screen junkies just look up san andreas uh the rock mayor marriage yeah on screen generous it's great it's so touching these guys have had like this on running like history so it's great just great bromance junket bromance that they've had like over the years and then finally as a producer how hard would that have been to set up that whole so scary but so good uh yeah you guys should definitely watch that and then lastly um oh yeah oh yeah look at how it uses a have been so many I'm sure yeah yeah and he's I'm so happy for this guy and has been his new wife who is she's so pretty and she looks so excited to be marrying him and like and he looks the same and I just love a good wedding where everyone just is so happy and thrilled and he I love that he was like can I have a comb please like when they're like are you ready and he's like and I please I would go hahaha so yeah it was great it really really great i highly recommend it is it make it made you feel good well make you forget plus i mean what a nice guy too for the rock to do that oh yeah even put his name in the vows of like a bunch yeah he plugged san andreas too for what it's worth it um and then lastly out right now if you have an android phone you've been waiting to get your live stream on periscope is out for android finally tiny it only took a couple months um but i know a lot of people who have android phones are really excited so prolly super wonky right welford it's not bad i've heard it's pretty good um and if ya so and everybody i like on Twitter this morning a whole bunch of people are talking about it and there you know making jokes about here's how to periscope on android and like all this stuff so if you are have any interest in this periscope is pretty fun and I i like it and i actually just like it for watching other peoples live streams like i don't necessarily use it all the time but i love watching other peoples live streams of interesting things in my life is fairly get out of here luke westaway I London is as periscope like really caught up cuz I feel like he's like a it was like big and then I never hear and then people you did the people periscope for like a minute boy think he never touched like a half hour I mean you can't it's hard it's hard to then why are your periscope English make people don't realize how hard it is to do something alive for an hour I do well we do every day for a living for half hour but it's like it's tough to keep talking it's like live streaming so when you're live streaming and you do live streaming the first time you're like oh my gosh I didn't realize how hard it would be to play a game and talk about it to people and check comments out all at the same time and so I think live streaming is kind of like that little bit of a learning curve there but once you get it it's really really fun if you have something interesting you want to show people Sano try it out I think it's cool yeah I want to I haven't I haven't tried it yet you guys I would love your periscope I like what I do seem like the guy to periscope I just I makes me feel like I'd be so self-involved she's been I look my life guys watching let's talk I haven't just I haven't taken that I not find the right there yeah well the problem is the right thing is like I look I'm at a convention too bad you don't get internet server no internet service I tried it's our celebration and the internet was just like no I made do it at disneyland on Sunday thank you should totally do that a pair of skillful 80th anniversary on a periscope like the whole world of color show or is that like illegal I think that no I don't think so cuz I'm sure people have their phones they record world of color you and me we're going to disneyland together excellent so keep an eye on me on twitter follow him on twitter are you babes poonam on periscope super easy but that's it for new releases which means it's time to get to your user feedback so last week we asked everybody to use the hashtag TD message to talk about what message they would want to send up into space for the new horizons yeah yeah they what what message would give to any intelligent life out there discovered new her and people for some reason we're mad about that opportunity people did not like this like I people some people wrote to me and we're just like we should not send anything out like uh the firt dustin rogers research dustin wrote in and said nothing to see here move along move along hashtag protects planet yeah ok so he's scared that the aliens will kill us hold on i'm pulling up everyone's i just i'm gonna read him real quick ok good no no go ahead makenga norman wrote in and said i would send a video of her earthlings live together uh though are we are from different continents and races TV message which i thought that was a very nice sentiment and well done on that real nice uh Neil wrote in and said I'd send a keep away message because not because I'm xenophobic but because there's still too many idiots here sadly but here's the thing Neil what if the ale what if this intelligent life is they're not they're intelligent what if they're not idiots what if they are idiots I mean that's I think that's a great for you what it quickly and show up and they're dumber than we are I'd be what if swarthy only beings on in the universe that understand that violence is even a thing that you should do like that's so like if the one of the top comments which had three up votes on YouTube is is this is stupid can you people just you stop for a second and use your brain send a massage to aliens is like yelling where you are when you're hiding from serial killers for God's sake so he is assuming that like aliens are sitting with sniper rifles on their way no there's just smoking cigarettes of putting them out in their cells just going it someday but kill you as soon as I hear one as soon as I hear that message I'm gonna go I'm gonna take him out but the correct answer was lol if I sent a message off it would be a LMAO which is a which is a meme which is it was a dank memes in life so good job Brutus Bongo we also got an email from James who said I think the message this is a good this is a good email Oh God a message could include a sample of the arts and culture throughout Earth's history artists such as Monet Picasso van Gogh composers like Mozart Bach and Beethoven there are many artists in the last several decades that could be placed alongside these greats it would help convey the message of our passionate human side loss are showing our creative and intelligent side to help ensure that these works of our indoor in some form we could use Google's mind-boggling capacity to archive data we could have google set up a cultural database that could be accessed from beyond our stars what the house it grads a really good answer by the way Logan this is this is a LMAO it's the alien it's the alien from Independence yeah this is a this is it isn't me so this was what they've said uh yeah but that's a great idea so he wants like a never-ending cultural database that's continually we can update with things I would love it if we had a cultural database that maybe like five major tech companies in the world at any given time they can change they don't have to be the same one would hold that information so that we had copies of it and basically every year we would kind of have like a global sort of suggestion box where people could like write into some website and say like well this is what should be included this year or maybe they give us like a short list of things we pick like what we put in the time capsule I don't know it could be cool but anyway you guys had really good answers to that yeah and then of course we were last piece of user feedback which is always our photographer the day serial killer aliens did stay away from our planet get off my lawn and get away um Nick wrote in to us and had a great memorial day picture took a picture from yesterday's accelerate entirely it's amazing he said over the weekend one of my friends hosted a party in the South Loop neighborhood in Chicago for memorial day it was a total blast and the weather was gorgeous a week ago her highs were in the 40s and 50s so the 70s we got this weekend we're almost as nice as sunny California anyway took these pics with my iphone 6 and thought i would share uh so this is a panoramic shot from my friends balcony far left just under the sun are the lights of the united center where the Blackhawks play center are willis sears the sears building another iconic building seen from the South far right is museum campus Field Museum the shedd aquarium the outer planetarium I Adler Planetarium soldier field and other fun stuff next to Lake Michigan so that's an amazing panorama yeah Chicago well if if you don't know any like what's in chicago yeah there's a bunch of stuff just from this views that's a who's who of this panorama i really dig it yeah you should toss this up on one I don't know if you guys know but there's billboards all around Los Angeles of like cool Pantera like panoramic views and then it says shit with the iphone 6 super kind of like that's that super kind of like 40 toidy but that was perfect that would have been a really good shot yeah that would have totally been a billboard shot and I just I love this he also said in another picture and he described it but I picked that one particularly but he was saying there's another picture that has the Blue Cross Blue Shield building lit up just they'll honor the fallen in on memory of all those who laid down their lives for the country and he said even the Sears Tower or the Willis Tower now changed the colors of its antenna for the occasion so he's like I love this city I hope you enjoy it which we did so thank you very much if you want to send it your phone tog raphy or if you want to talk to us about the show i send in your hashtag a day whatever you can email us tomorrow at cnet com you can also find us on the major social media sites just look up tomorrow daily and I'm mostly on Twitter so if you really want to talk to us go for Twitter I'll almost always see it there twitter that's probably the number one choice i look at youtube and the youtube comments and regret it most of the time but there's some there are some good human there some on youtube there's not many but there are some good humans on youtube so i try to talk to you guys and don't forget to follow us on our personal tutors I mean I killed a lot of us and I'm at ashleys together and if you want to send someone to the show you want to tell them all about us you can just send me to tomorrow daily com it's that easy that's it for the show will be back tomorrow with a brand-new talkative weird wonderful science fact and science fiction smash it up right between right between here and your face and it's gonna be great so be good human yeah just yeah I see you later go on you
