what's up everyone John ringer from technobuffalo and I am sandwich between these two pillows do another episode of ask the Buffalo this is my favorite show that I do the chance for us to get to Chad asked questions you could ask me about my life technology whatever else is in between this week there we got a nice mix of some personal stuff and some tech questions let's jump right in first question comes from Matt blamer who asks at John for lakers my question is what would you choose note 5 over the s6 edge+ and why to figure out which one to get ha ha ha Matt when I first did the reviews I thought all right I would go the note I would be S Pen is handy to have least you have the option to use it but the more I stared at the gold s6 edge+ the more just like I guess the Impractical timing was just like so pretty so pretty and I think that side eventually won out I would get the gold s6 edge+ that's probably right now my favorite phone out I think it's the best looking color of a phone that's ever come out I think the screen on both the phones are the best screens that are out on devices so I guess you could probably say the best screen has ever been put out really though it's a personal choice you think you would use the S Pen then go for the note you're getting a great phone unfortunately not available in gold in the u.s. behavior outside the US you can get it in gold which case then do that but I just personally loved way the s6 edge+ looks and I never use any of the edge features so ask yourself that question would you use the note features if your answer is yes and get it if your answer is yeah for the first week then probably I forget that it's there or I put the pen in backwards and go the edge plus so I apologize advanced appreciation of this next Twitter handle saket said shadi asks at john for lakers what course did you opt in college I went to college in the upstate New York went to University of Rochester I was a liberal arts major I'm age in religion classics I was prepared for nothing I've always been fascinated by what motivated people and there's never been a greater motivator in history than religion so I've always just found it very fascinating to study yeah the Western religions Eastern religions to study the classics and philosophy I just I've always been drawn to it my time I realized I was getting in my junior year I was like you away from the clearing of majors though I did that while I loved it it prepared me for like between zero and like next to zero so you had to figure out whatever you want to major in each one is something like I'm doing anything it's writing intensive will be fine I did however go back to school and get my master's degree I got an MBA so I was able to sort of learn how to better run business hope it helped and your question next comes from this is kyle i john for lakers what inspired you to start YouTube tell you the short version back when YouTube was mostly cat videos and God you can kick in the balls i was looking to get new computer I hadn't used a mac at the time this is back in like 2006 i think i figured i would make videos to learn how to use it to force myself to learn how to use it but I started to do technology videos because I've always loved technology I used to go just walk around best buy to relax I'm I had a stressful day at work I would just go and walk around best buy yeah before I started this I was browsing all the tech sites i was on cnet and gagging his moto i was running a marketing apartment for software development company at the time I just technology's always been a passion well anything ever thought about doing i just always just loved it never in a million years i think i could make a career out of it youtube started to grow there weren't that many people are making videos and kind of one thing led to another and i was able to see a an avenue to make a business and i ran through full steam ahead and happened to get very very lucky i think i was in the right place at the right time and ninety ninety-five percent just dumped up last but not least Cooper kupp underscore be at John for lakers is the android phone a good thing for blackberry with a physical keyboard be enough to set them apart from other android devices so black pretty interesting now the rumor blackberry Venice which at this point is I mean pretty much confirmed we had a two minute video some guy using actually using the phone it is a slider from blackberry all the blackberry torch but instead of running a version of blackberry OS thing's freaking running Android and it looks like a relatively unskilled version of Android 5.4 inch screen pretty close to next-gen specs probably Snapdragon 10 under the hood 3 to 4 gigabytes of ram and a slide out keyboard I haven't been this excited for a phone in a really long time I used to love blackberry so you get the power and customization options of Android not to mention the App Store of android yet with the puts up play get security of blackberry so you have blackberries apps sitting on top you'll have blackberry PQ blackberry hub obviously bbm you can get an android anyway plus a physical keyboard you know you don't have to use you so a five point four inch one you could type on screen slide it out and you can type there but let's say you don't want to type of that physical keyboard it's got the same cool sort of touch sensitive keys they've gotten a blackberry passport to just use a qwerty keypad to scroll up and down text never type a letter on it almost like a trackpad I'm really excited I hope it comes to fruition I would use that phone and I would excitedly and happily use that runabouts that have soft spot in my heart for blackberry blackberries had a rough road and I think they acknowledged that going the path with their own software and their own hardware was not going to success so using Android and having the black raining behind them I think if you get a lot of new customers people that maybe wouldn't consider blackberry before I think we'll consider it now but what you guys think you would you buy the Venice or wherever they typed all the time I love to hear your thoughts on it I'll lead the comments here in this general region be nice to each other down there until next time John render from techno buffo see you next one goodbye
