The TechnoBuffalo Show Episode #033 – Microsoft, Holograms and More!

2015-01-22
and welcome to the TechnoBuffalo show episode 33 I'm live your two heads for today Sean ani editor-in-chief of the site and i'm joining bags they could have editor mobile Todd Hazleton everybody are you doing today Todd I'm good you've had an exciting week it has been and surprisingly so considering who the event was yeah we had Microsoft yesterday and i'm not saying microsoft isn't exciting i'm just saying it hasn't been one of those companies where you're expecting like crazy ground breaking news out of like you get it windows phone announcements are fun and you get some like some revamps user interface and stuff like that windows 8 was pretty big but it wasn't a company that ever had like one more thing and in fact yesterday had two more things um it was really fun event actually and i think i wrote an editorial on the site but you know microsoft's not really boring anymore and I'm not saying Microsoft was boring but I guess I am it was like it when you think of Microsoft you think of cloud storage and enterprise and windows and you're like yeah you know I use Microsoft products all over the place all the time xbox one Windows Windows Phone here and there and but I've never just been like wow and yesterday I think there were a couple moments turning event well during the event when they first showed the Microsoft hologram and the hololens you know we were all on a skype call as we always are during an event and you know you and I were an agreement you know oh this is a dream it's not you know it'll never get released and all that and then for them to come and go well we've gotta release time frame and we kill we've got some battles I said yesterday when they started talking about halal and so I was like oh Stone Sean like that it's it's definitely hooked up to a full computer right now there's no way things in launcher soon then they're like oh no it's going to launch in the windows 10 timeframe which i think means Windows 10 time frame and maybe not with windows 10 launches but exactly and later this year 2016 exactly i mean when time frame could be three years four years so this does not mean that the hololens is coming out on the same day as Windows 10 it could be a year later it could be a year and a half later we don't know yet but apparently the folks that saw it were really impressed by what they saw though I heard they were using very early prototypes and they had to have a pack of battery like a big thing around their neck and stuff like that so it makes you wonder I its prototype phase I I can forgive them for that right now the the possible implications though the use cases of hololens when they showed in the demo video and this oddly enough is the most exciting thing to me it was the daughter and father talking and her fixing her plumbing right and him drying yo this is what you're going to tighten in these two spots and the arrows appeared for her you take that and you can apply it to medical mm-hmm you know a specialist dr. you know thousands of miles away could you know be going there right there that's where the problem is right you know that that was mind-boggling to me the practice and yes it was believe me it was a lot of fun seeing the minecraft kill situation but the potential life-saving capabilities of this were mind-boggling to me and you know to me this is the sort of thing that you know whenever we watch futuristic movies this is the sort of thing that I always knew was going to come along someday yeah just went yeah exactly exactly so I'm hopeful I'm excited for it I think it will be great you know if they can get out of course the big the big huge elephant in the room is how much is it going to cost right yeah yeah so I don't know it's going to be interesting to see as for the rest of the day interesting to say the least saying you know for those for those that don't know my history I did use Microsoft as my operating system and I I say that instead of windows is my operating system because I did actually start back on tech space das I I'm nano two kids yeah I use Microsoft for 25 years and before I switch to max and there's still some things this is such a small thing and not worthy being brought up at an event like that have they improved the update system at all yeah that was one of the biggest annoyances to me with Microsoft products here you'd go to shut down your computer hi I have 23 updates to install and you can't turn me off till I'm done yep that's I mean that happens to me all the time on my pc it's it's not and it drives me nuts too because you don't know how long it can take sometimes 20 minutes I'm like what am I you know yeah exactly exactly yeah so I I want to see you know i'm excited for Windows 10 but I want to see that little things like that have been taken care of yeah one of the things that I'm most excited about is it I said this the day before to on I guess it was Tuesday an editorial saying like Microsoft needs to take advantage of this ecosystem they have and actually make it an ecosystem and I think that's what a big message I walked away from yesterday is is that Windows 10 is the heart of this whole ecosystem so I mean they even said Windows 10 on xbox which sounds like you know they're just going to call the software on xbox Windows 10 but they are going to make it easy for developers who are making pc apps support them to it to xbox which is awesome and then you know Cortana's going to expand from the desktop your phone one drive everywhere they finally have a good photos app it looks like which is one of the I mean one drive is ugly I love it because it's pretty reliable in Microsoft has a good reputation with cloud storage but it's ugly and it's pretty unbearable to use but if you need your files they're there and it sounds like you know they're going to revamp it with the photos the floating keyboard was really interesting I think that suggests where you see some tablets some new Windows Phone phablets and should put just overall tying all of these into an ecosystem where you know Skype is now built in a messenger sort of the way Facebook was at one time in Windows Phone and I think that'll serve it seems like it's almost like they're I message sort of so you can get your messages across platforms everywhere powered by skype but not necessarily inside of state hey you know one funny thing to me yesterday when they were showing on the hololens you mentioning skype made me think of it you know so they show the woman walkie and the skype calls like floating next door yeah where's the camera showing her to the other person yeah good question even think about that yeah so it loves there's a camera the you know they're coming out with a hover camera that's going to float with you right she was out in front of you yeah there's gonna be all these people walk around with quadcopters floating in front of them with cameras so they can do skype calls yeah but i'll take your call in a minute i just have to launch the quad attach my camera yeah I very very very tiny thing but it's just like wait about how are they seeing her yeah doesn't work but it yeah overall yesterday was exciting and Sasha bahal has a question here about uh you know asking what we thought witnessed him but also the question and where did windows 9 go we've heard rumors we why it's not called windows 9 and I'll take this one I think those were debunked right but we can tell the story the story is that there were a number of programs that's were written to ignore anything like windows 95 windows 98 and that all those would have to be rewritten if they called it windows 9 now some have debunked it but I know enough about technology to go it sounds kind of possible so we don't know I mean Microsoft stories that it's such a big update that they want to go with Windows 10 it still seems a little odd you know course but I can see where they're coming from with this message right like when do this aid was trashed all over the place by people who liked windows 7 and i think you know they want to put this like new you know breath of fresh air into windows and they're doing that with all the new features and tying it into a real ecosystem and i think that's maybe why they went with windows and it just sounds a lot sexier to me the windows 9 like this just crossed my mind is we were having this discussion do you think it has anything to do with marketing OS 10 windows 9 oh we're not quite where Mack is yeah it sounds like that I mean that would make sense that pure pure speculation folks pure speculation but it just dawned on me that would that would mean windows would still sound like it was behind Mac right I don't know possibility who knows I think at this point OS 10 is just what they call it I I don't honestly I don't know if there ever will be in OS 11 yeah who knows his closet it wouldn't be quite as sexy with an OSX I yeah Oh Lord but no you bring up some very good points about you know I think a lot of people had begun to think of Microsoft is boring it wasn't necessarily that they really were it just felt like it because they weren't hitting us in the face with anything that was massively innovative and they changed that yesterday I mean the and also the ecosystem the fact that you know I could now potentially stream an Xbox game to a PC or tablet I still question that tablet part a lot I really want to see these specifics on that yeah the hardware although Sony does it with their experience so possible brace and Franco just left a comment and then apple introduces OS 11 in June knowing my luck probably well that's actually a really good point because I think one of the things that Microsoft has struggled with in the past is being quick to these these sort of updates so while it disgusting yesterday when is it actually going to hit consumers and we know that they said some of this stuff like Cortana on the desktop I think like four or five or three to five months right and that's just for the preview and I think Google and Apple have been in the past a little more nimble to be like okay well here's ours and it's out like so for example we don't have Syria on the desktop now but that doesn't mean that Apple's not going to have it at you so that's a good point well I do think Google's already has you know Google now is already in chrome can see how Google and get that going but no hololens was definitely the one more thing playing yesterday it was mind-boggling and I hope I really do hope it comes to market I mean we've seen too many times over the years where things have been promised and then they don't end up coming I this to me it I find it so hilarious that this was announced in early 2015 when you go back to back to the future to Marty McFly you know his sudden 2050 was using a kit lens that was somewhat like this yeah we're a little behind but not by much right I I do think it was hilarious that they admitted that they've been hiding the work on this in the visitors and it is either center-right the basement of the visitor center so all those people walking ahead we're like on top of one of Microsoft's biggest secrets yeah that that just made me chuckle it doesn't really mean thing but a mate's me chuckle right from Sasha Mahal if you were to choose one of the three to get which would you choose microsoft hololens oculus rift or Google glass and why um well I've used the oculus rift I just use the latest one at CES and I really really liked it i thought it was amazing so i think i'd go with that just cuz it's the one I've seen but hololens looked awesome I think they're kind of like different use cases and a little bit in the sense that I saw the reports that hollow lens you can see through it it's augmented reality as well but although I gets the Mars come they had you actually feel like you're on Mars where you weren't really seeing through the lens but oculus rift to me was just incredibly immersive and i remember at CES was standing on an alien planet looking at a lia in the face I was like whoa this is like unreal no I don't know I'd have to try all the ones before I said it but definitely one of those to you over google glass I've never really really been impressed by Google s III haven't used any of the three I think the only reason i would say hololens / oculus rift is simply because of the interactivity and the potential use cases for design and you know like I said the medical use cases and so on but also as a gamer I really really want to I oculus rift yeah I know I I know everyone's good but Sean you were at CES again folks I don't get out well I bet CES everyone comes back to the art little room and goes Sean you wouldn't believe what we just saw I'd love to see it myself too bad so they're dead yeah and all these was hard to see us cuz you to schedule appointments so we actually went one day and scheduled the appointment for the following day so it's little right yeah so I always that cool I can't wait to walk around like a like an MMO or something one of these huge games with it yeah yeah exactly I i I'm just excited that we're finally getting to this point now until you know a little blue lady appears in front of me in a robe and yo tells me your father you might we work together in the Clone Wars I also i can't think of the stupid line but yes until a little princess leia shows up in front of me you know and tells me that I'm the only hope yeah I'm sorry we're not in the future yes not there yet right yeah we're not through a little bit off topic but kind of interesting from verse and Franco mind-boggling question out of making deals with carriers where do phone shops get their supplies you know that's actually something that's crossed my mind as well at times i'm talking like phone shops like a mom-and-pop phone shop yeah i think they buy them yeah like did they buy him directly from the manufacturer or do they get through a hotel chain I would guess a wholesale chain I think that's how they do it I think so too I I think that's why you see people at CES is like buyers to so they'll go check out the cases they want to put near shops and stuff like that I speaking of that did you notice and maybe it was just me I don't sell a lot more buyers yeah yeah yeah and that they were like mom and pop stores that never heard of or you know they were computer repair shops mm-hmm it was really I was thrilled that means the the markets healthy but it was just really puzzling to me I saw so many more buyers this time yeah I think that's how they do it through wholesale yeah I think so as well who knows uh from David Nunez what do you guys make of the HTC m9 leaks I thought they were fairly legit until I saw the m9 max leaks thanks yeah we just covered the anigh max uh actually I think it's a night plus was yeah yeah um same idea though I don't know what to think of them I think it she sees gonna have a busy Mobile World Congress um in early March they said that much at least but their invites for the press conference so I think it's about time we're going to see one of these or maybe both but if you remember when the max came out it was several months after the original one so I think and that was with the m7 so they didn't do a max last year so i'm not really sure what to think except for i think we'll see new hardware from HTC next month yeah so do i I just mark what exactly yeah March time is flying by but I don't know it's going to be interesting to see what HTC has a bit sleeve I mean the MA was a great phone yeah yeah I it's gonna be there I have to go a long way for me to look at the m9 and go wow this is ill a massive upgrade the m8 is awesome yeah I'd like to see quad HD um I like to see you know I don't like HTC's done a lot with their camera but i'm not sure i'm crazy about what they've done with the ultrapixel stuff that you okay imma set up I think I'd like to see a really good image sensor on it that takes big pictures to and if you look at things like what was the other one that just came out the HTC one I or the I desire I um it had a 13 megapixel camera but it's not like one of the best cameras out there it's kind of far from it so I'd really like them to invest in a really nice camera on the back that's not ultra fixed but we'll see from David noon is where is Joey it's after csn Oh Joey Joey is coming back Joey is just extremely busy it's also it's hard for us to get any three technobuffalo people together at once because it's taking three people out of writing yes have stuff on the site yeah so I think the show is probably going to stick it to I like it with three but it's just it's more sensible with only two because that doesn't mean I'm pulling three people away from working on the site but Joey still around my promise um let's see here what else have we got coming we got a bunch coming in here to do from brazen Franco I can answer this why not stream desktop games to the Xbox it makes so much more sense that way Phil Spencer after the event yesterday while talking to the press said they are investigating that it's just not feasible yet but they are looking into the possibility of doing that so it's on Microsoft's radar yeah if you think about it nvidia does that they could do that so the technology exists right yeah yeah it's just let's let them get something started and then they can refine it I also think like they probably I mean obviously they want to push pc games too but they're trying here is sort of like push this xbox as part of the ecosystem to start the only here is a reason if you own an xbox here's a reason why you should buy a Windows PC also and I get that you could do it both ways I don't think everybody's going out there and buying windows gaming PC's because they can be expensive and stuff but here's why you might buy a three-hundred-dollar Windows tablet too because you can stream from your xbox to it that's that's what how I whatever dude yeah exactly well we shall see uh from saw Raja when do you think the hollands will become available for everyone I have no idea yeah I don't know I'd say two years but what do I know I two years is kind of what's been sticking in my head as well especially I had read about the fact they were having to wear battery packs to do the demos yesterday so obviously they've got some work to do but i guess the ones on stage were legitimate so i don't know like one but why weren't the press able to play with those because they look cool I don't know she may have had a battery pack hidden under her shirt yeah who knows I although I didn't see any wires running to it right yeah I I was a little disappointed after she you know designed the quadcopter on stage and they brought up a 3d printed one I was like okay you're basically telling me that was not a live demo right yeah it wasn't like girl yeah they implied it was a live demo and now I'm my oke it looks just like what she designed yeah I three from these don't work that quickly yeah they could have brought something else out 3d print said and you know she designed this earlier and look what we were able to do bringing out the exact same item I thought was a little yeah a little questionable but yeah yeah we'll see I don't know oh let's see here from off topic from social hall which movies and games are you looking forward to this year avengers age of ultron star wars the force awakens i'm kind of excited for Mad Max fury road we'll we'll see I mean it from what I've heard it's just like a 90-minute car chase imagine that from a bad max movie um game was honest I haven't heard much in gaming that's exciting me yet the fame will they showed yesterday looked pretty good yeah called the full name Microsoft showed it and it was cross platform to so PC and Xbox can play together thugs need I don't know I have so many games I need to catch up on that I haven't really like been like looking forward to gates cuz there's already a lot of ones that I still want to flip oh I have a stack of games I need to get through I I've been playing far cry 4 as you know and you know I think I'm probably two hours the game yeah that I've been playing a ton of Destiny so ya know what I don't know if we're that excited for new stuff we gotta get through the old stuff first yeah it like crazy uh speaking of far cry 4 from brazen Franco what happened to the twitch channel it's been a long time since Joey's last session with far cry 4 twitch we're not done with it it simply was a matter of things got extremely busy that we got into the holidays then we got into c s and brandon is actually the one who's managing the twitch channel and he and I have been talking about how to get it going again it's not something we've abandoned we definitely it's still on our radar it's just been a matter of time unfortunately you know it's a nice concept but it's also you're like oh I need to write three more articles or go play games for an hour and yes well we'd love to go play games for an hour you know you also all want articles on the site so it's been a trade off again without have to be written in energy confirm that all kinds of stuff exactly so that the twitch channel is not dead it's just oughta brief hiatus while we try to figure out our strategy around a little bit better ah let's see here Oh lots of questions came in well doing that one uh oh interesting from David noon is Sean Todd what are the top three things you hate in the top three things you love about being a journalist more specifically a technology journalist hmm yeah that's actually a really deep question um I love writing editorials I love playing with the gadgets which often influences sort of what I want to write about for editorials and I love meeting with people in the industry that means other journalists and all the PR people because you don't see them all the time but you interact over email a lot but I see especially other journalists it's great hanging out with people when you get dinner or something at a trade show top three things I hate I'd say let's be careful there no I feel like missing news like if you know for whatever reason I'm eating lunch in and use hits and I just didn't see it or something that's never happened Todd yeah it always seems like every time I go to the bathroom news hits that's it oh and every time I swear you guys have a pressure plate in my seat because every time I get to go to the restroom my im's go off yeah so one of those um missing an event for some reason you know like either we weren't on the list but we should have been or something like that that that's that can be frustrating and there oh I like traveling to put that at the top for things hmm I don't know I can't think of many things that I hate because otherwise I wouldn't be doing it yeah and that's a very good point I mean I definitely hate the number of emails we get I and that's I it's just part of life but I inbox zero as a dream it never will never happen um like Todd I hate when we're not aware of a piece of news you know when we should be you know if it's even if we learn about three minutes later it annoys me that we didn't have it at that time it's just a matter of there's so much news at times um as for a third thing I hate I'll come back on that three things i love i love the crew i work with you know i love the company and the crew you know I wouldn't be here this is actually the longest I've ever worked for anyone other than myself yeah because I had my camera crew 15 and a half years and I've been here for five years now and before that I think the longest I never worked anywhere else was two years and I only left that job because the magazine folded uh um let's see what else do I love um travel I mean I don't get to travel nearly as much as some of the other guys they all think I'm some sort of lunch been an important around here but I do love to travel i love seeing new sights i'm having trouble coming up with a third love and a third hate the plane with all the gadgets that's always fun oh I I know what my third hate is when we know about something we can't discuss it oh yeah that stuff it it's not it's not so much as I hate it is it's just annoying it's just part of the business but yo will will officially learn about so they're like and you can't say anything I want to tell people uh no I don't they call that background so like if I'm meeting with company a and they're like they're talking about one product and you're like and just for some background this one's coming out in two months but and you like that's that's kind of off the record I mean it's very much off the record there's nothing I can do about that yeah yeah exactly it and so the number of times we hear off the record or like temper 30 I get to say that wife you could have skipped saying that yeah but no I I love this job I love everyone I work with even todd todd no actually you know about Ralph's of my new theory we blame everything that goes wrong on Brandon haha yeah it anything and everything that goes wrong he and I just I am each other in all caps Brandon Brandon even a branded not there that day even if you had nothing to do with it blame everything on Brandon hey it works Hey oh good question from brazen Franco will there be a review of the zou me or show me however you say that word me notes and meizu mx4 s probably not the reason being simply because it's right now they're China only so it's not really a market that we cater to simply because they just don't read our site and secondly also being able to get them yeah if we can get them we will yes you mais use a little easier show me he's a little more difficult for unless we buy them but right and that which is a possibility but you know it's a lot of people watching us review those let us know you know and if there's enough of you out there you know we can go out and buy one but you know for right now it's just not certain that it's something we need to cover you know we can pretty much sort of see the demand for these when we write news on them and stuff like that and if people aren't clicking them then we sort of think well is this something we want to review and if we do like why do we want to spend that time with people don't seem to be interested so that's sort of how we judge what we're doing right and it's not even if we have to go out and buy honestly that the financial cost is the smallest part of our consideration when we have to go out by a phone it's also them because we do have our personal rule that phones must be used you know for X number of days before we review them you know so that's time consuming then there's also the time consumption of writing shooting the photos if we decide to do a video then there's the video production yeah you know so there's a lot of resources that go into a review and if it's a phone that are our customer you know I call customers readers whatever you want to call them if our readers are not showing an interest in that device then it's not really worth all the resources that we sink into the review unfortunately mmhmm yeah I believe me I we would love to review every phone out there but I think also some of us would start to consider leaping off buildings you know if we did review you know hey this new flip phone came in could you review it yeah actually then we would hire my father to do the Flip and make him do the flip phones cuz he refuses to use anything other than a flip phone I think it's slightly because he knows it drives me insane he got so excited when you guys last one it's a kyocera sup days like look I got a new phone aren't you excited flip the pic away just go away three nothing against kyocera just to flip phone go away people love him uh yeah i know from eric brahmand after making the kinect look like the next advancement of video games only to have it be a glorified piece of junk how do you feel Microsoft will handle the hololens that's actually a very good question yeah do you thing is how connect was like one of the best selling products Microsoft had when it launched and it's the same guy that's doing halliwell what it launched and then everyone realized hey there's no software right actually I think you know it was it was ahead of its time in a lot of ways not ahead of its time but you know for for consoles it was sort of something different and the same guy that did that's working on hololens and seems to be like I don't know if you saw the press conference yesterday the viewers out there but this guy is like pretty dedicated kind of mad scientist not a guy and I think it seems like he's the right one for the for the project and hopefully you know it's as good as Microsoft's making it out okay pet peeve time you you brought up the hair whether you just say you look like a mad scientist that's I mean that's bringing up the hair okay I'm all for self-expression but someone really needs to stay it off stage and be at Microsoft Apple whoever can go you're about to go out on stage and represent our company okay cut your hair tuck your shirt in I if you want wear a t-shirt fine but the at least tuck your shirt in yeah and I just want to hire a barber to sit there and go nope you aren't going out with that hair it's pretty funny it's uh some of the hairdos we see on some of these things yeah I what I think I think the hollow lens is sort of um I think Microsoft is a some huge aspirations for they they believe this is and some of the journalists all yesterday seem to agree that this is the next step in computing that you know keyboard mouse aren't where we're going to be in ten years and so if if Microsoft serious about that vision then the hololens can't be glorified piece of chalk cuz it no sort of their vision right and I agree with that i mean if you look at the the keyboard mouse interface it's been around for going on 50 years now it is time for a change i think the problem is been you and we've tried doing touch screen desktops and laptops but who wants to see here typing and then reach up you know to do something hey okay i need to do that okay i need that's not practical right but the hololens could change all that I mean if I'm manipulating shapes and objects in 3d space that's interesting now that being said I also don't see myself typing out a full article like this right my hands in the air that that's not going to work right but for a lot of things yes I can see where this would be a lot more interesting uh let's see here to do from another one from brazen Franco or or someone who mainly uses mobile data for push notifications in reading mostly TV in my case is 4g that huge of a deal I'm from Europe and they started deploying the network but I don't see the appeal compared to 3g HSPA there is a world of difference yeah world a world of world of difference HSPA is not horrible but you will see a definite difference with using LTE Todd any thoughts oh yeah I mean especially if you're looking at streaming data and real music and stuff like that music works pretty well on HSPA but if you're going you know if you want to say stream a YouTube video actually yesterday because I was using a Windows Phone that i got like site about microsoft so switch windows phone it it's an unlocked international version so i only get HSPA and I was like loading a video and I remember saying to myself just last night like this would have been loaded already on LTE because I was thinking oh I can I can live with HSPA but so there is a really big difference um when it comes to stream videos downloading games and stuff like that if you're in the airport one of the things that drives me nuts when I'm in an airport I'm like oh I want to download that game before this flight I don't have a LTE connection I'm like that's not going to happen so first off like that there's a huge difference yeah I'm going to go ahead and put this question out there it will answer it nicely from David Nunez how do you guys feel when you are at a microsoft / apple event and they typically go to the verge website for their demos no offense to other sites by concern them your biggest competitions when news hits those are the two sites i choose between thanks it kills a little bit of ourselves ah it very clearly we have no grudge against the verge we have no grudge against any other site would we like to see TechnoBuffalo up on the screen you betcha yeah but I mean to be fair to converge had that story of that Spartan and that's what Microsoft is talking about is think for all I know exclusive to the verge they had their own sources so yes that's why it was there and yeah yes yeah so no it it typically leads to a joke or two but no it it's the nature of the beast yeah it could be in gadget could be the verge would we rather see technobuffalo up there of course we would but you know and someday we'll work our way up there yeah and we will rule the world so duh it doesn't bother us another thing toots it's worth mentioning that goes back to what i love about you know technology journalism is a lot of times like I might see androidcentral had a thing in Times Square they had like a big advertisement which was awesome and I we have friends there and I was like oh that's amazing you know so it's not as like I don't we don't look at them is like oh we take these guys down like we hate them I got it's it's really great sometimes to see friends you know quoted elsewhere it's like one of the highlights for me of CES was I finally finally got to meet phil from android central yeah yeah I love Phil I think he's great you know I'd never gotten to meet him in person to me that was one of the highlights I i we love you know it it's a big world of technology but it's actually a very small world of journalists that work on it and so I yeah we we could walk around and hating each other but it'd be pointless and there are times where we help each other yeah you know somebody for some reason gets a press release that another person didn't get you know it's not confidential ok fine here you go you know let me help you out and then you return the favor yeah so it's actually it's more almost like a brother ship yeah I'd say so yeah we're like we're off we're in the trenches together man yeah we got a report on these phones um from Sasha Mahal hey Sean what would you like to see in the 1+2 you know I really don't know what I would change I really really love what let's weapon I'd say a better screen quad HD is the quality of that screen to me isn't isn't that great i think it's really like bright the viewing angles aren't great that's sort of one of my biggest complaints about the oneplus one I think I I am a little concerned though I've had trouble charging it this week I'm not sure what's going on I got hey I'm not sure I'm gonna try a different charger and see if maybe it's the charger doing it but little little concerning um paintable storage too i probably throw that yeah expain little storage would be nice but definitely I think a better screen think that would be my big one but otherwise I really really like the current design of the one plus one mhm um we've got two questions left if no one else asks any for the first time I get through every question all right here we go now so now we're gonna get more I know verb raised in Franco what would you choose between current VR sets and complete sci-fi ones which involve full neural immersion it's I would she turn because I'm afraid of that yeah i know i go to matrix e I don't want anything like plugging into the back of my neck in anything that requires a surgical implant of a port right no me trick um I i I'm very excited for what's currently out there and what's been talking about what's coming I just want to see them refine more but I don't think I anytime you say the word neural I'm just gonna go oh and the last one we already touched on this a little bit from Tyler lacoste what do you think about the whole Windows 10 connection to the xbox one I think it's needed to happen for a long time and I'm glad it's finally happening yeah i agree i love it yeah yeah so we'll see how it works out but i want to secret war town on the xbox one to sing hey xbox is ok but if you can Anna and I she's got to make her way there it wouldn't would make
