2080Ti Catches FIRE - The WAN Show Nov 17, 2018

2018-11-16
why ha we're technically still late that's my fault we're only three minutes late I want to get the thumbnail done so it looks all pretty on YouTube and stuff when you guys want to join we're gonna have some pretty interesting news this week including literally fire yes someone early-adopter 220 atti and it caught fire yeah it's just so it's it's so hot right now it's just it's lit yeah like oh my god I might be able to use part of its functionality soon oh well more on that actually yeah updates there too and Amazon is gonna start selling iPhones and crack down on the resale market only authorized resellers of Apple devices on Amazon this is you out that is pretty huge and it's probably why a police Elling stuff on Amazon oh yes oh that was a agreement that get into that Valve is potentially working on a half-life to prequel for VR we're going the other direction not all the way though not all interestingly yeah yes yeah anyways roll the intro oh yeah no we're news for you though you'll see you oh wow that actually like was ruffled my voice a little bit all right hi there we go hey how are you doing last week you were in the USN day I was gone I was in Chicago what are you doing there you know you hear like kind of scary things about Chicago windy lots of talking off the win lots of gun crime and stuff okay a really nice City it's beautiful I really that's got the guns like hell let me get the door for you yeah it would have been delightful um anyways yeah good how are you yeah I'm good I was in you a Sunday also oh oh yeah yeah we went to LA how was that it was fun we talked to the YouTube people and we ripped around on those little scoot scoot so those lime scooters mmm it's like the uber uber uber they should have called it Scooby definitely should probably I bet you burn needs to make a scooter today probably already yeah I should I don't they have a scooter thing or they invested in an abandoned it's been in the headlines I haven't neglected to click I'm not a clue but they're sweet and they're pretty cheap and fast and sometimes people double on the mess I double dead it's pretty fun oh okay okay for some reason my immediate imagination went to one foot on each just flying wait two scooters yeah and you're slow I thought okay that's weird I thought you're gonna say someone riding on the handlebars Oh which is where you skip that would be really hard yeah really hard you got to be a very small person you gotta lean back keep the weight on that back wheel yeah any case that that's all ridiculous speaking of keeping weight on the back wheel 20 atti has caught fire this was supposed to my tech dreamer on the forum a hard OCP user claims to have been browsing the web like not even pushing it hard no you might have had GPU activated browsing but like that's that's very very low so like it well it wasn't necessarily at zero but like it was very very low he was folding at home maybe maybe that's true fully on home heck yeah check it on the forum yeah we're doing that this month everybody get on it yeah are you doing that by the way I'm not currently at home I can't you have a computer I've barely been at home yeah but the thing with folding at home is you just set it and forget it yes I haven't had time to set it it takes two second and I'm a new but actually the setups he's gonna get on there guys I will get on there and you should too it's a very conflicting situation because my computer is a work computer so I would like need to get that approved okay I think okay look like last week or the week before Jake got on there and I think he did it with our computer okay but like you're using home electricity yes so like yeah your miling out the components a bit but if you don't run them that hog like that shouldn't be that bad and it's your electricity you're paying for so it's not like you're costing the company money yeah so I think you're good but as long as he's okay with the burnout which there again there shouldn't be much as long as they're not hot yeah do medium I'm only running on medium how much how hard does medium hit it just so because there's probably some people in the audience that are interested in helping I think on my system I would how hard do you like 70s yeah okay so that's not bad so like comes on high I was like in the high 80s I was like yeah that's maybe not great yeah because it's long you can also under volt a little bit I'm not doing that okay I hit this little slider but if you're if you're worried about the longevity of your card actually a lot of cards can be under volted and overclocked and it's still fine so you can you can check that out see if you can do that and go from medium or maybe even load whatever just make sure your card isn't getting super hot and you're probably okay if you don't know we're talking about you can lend your computer to help research really cool causes like alzheimer's research and stuff like that and it doesn't take any effort from you it's great so check it out there's a big thing all month we're doing it but anyway this guy might've been doing that if you if you do it for the month I mean you're like this is really cool but I want to do other stuff as well you could check out that same forum on our forum the same forum section and there should be information on blink and boink has like a bunch of different projects you can join the whole thing is a little bit more targeted okay point you can more select kind of what working on they're both super cool folding is bigger as far as I know okay yeah there's a ton of teams there's like look at the leaderboard there's a team that's just called team Taiwan I'm like how many people are on the news alright everybody we're joining together you're getting a tax break if you do this awesome yeah yeah folding at home check it out so right I was maybe folding at home but all we know he's browsing the web he's not maxing on his card he's not gaming the cards not overclocked as far as we know he doesn't have a faulty CPU or I mean PSU power supply and something his computer just unexpectedly shuts down he goes to investigate by looking through the side panel and there's fire shooting out the back of his card oh my goodness yeah it's much fun that's not fun we've had a lot of reports and I know gamers Nexus is looking into this I again I've been on my computer a ton I'm not sure if they've finished their investigation but I know they've been looking they've been collecting dead 1080 eyes yeah I'm trying to figure out why they died how they died stuff like that I think this is the only straight-up fire fight that's what I was gonna say is this is the only one I've heard of that's fire I know a lot of them have died I don't think a lot of them have like catastrophic Lee gone out and got on flame in flames yeah so this is this one's a little bit more spectacular than than most we've we've ran into do you have any idea of whether or not this would be covered by warranty oh I would hope I think it would be because I've seen some posts saying all this that's kind of stuff normally not covered and I've seen counter post saying no no I had a similar thing happen to me when my GP went up in flames oh boy and there's an MSI one they got covered and then there's also some questions as you might look into like like were you'd super aggressively overclocking it if he changed the BIOS on here I'm sure he's screwed do you think it's an EVGA warranty thing or is it and it would go back it would go back to EVGA and then I guess you'd have to see what EVGA thought about it but it's not the chip it's the board right and like what kind of a is it it's a TI XC sounds like it's probably a EVGA related problem ooh I'm going to guess because if that's not a reference board that might be something that EVGA did I have no idea I'm talking on my butt right now it's but talk yeah but you know yeah I'm not I'm not super familiar with this individual card but if that's a non reference board and that is a non reference part of the non reference board then yeah I would contact EVGA honestly I've had very few computer components fail on me and this wasn't even a case where a computer component failed I just called EVGA freaked out is a long story so we're not gonna go into it I've talked about my morning show before but their customer service was freakin wonderful so I'm sure the student taking growth should be okay cool you were talking about other details I was like you're saying he was like there or something who was where the kid was there oh yeah there was in his original thread here he says that he was a little freaked out because his child was like nearby physically close to what's happening so scared the bleep out of me since my kid was right around it when it started to shoot flame haven't tried to turn the PC back on yeah okay that's probably a decent idea so apparently everything was in its stock form so I'm going to assume he never even opened it before what we're talking about okay he said I was just doing some web browsing wasn't even doing anything else at the time so he probably wasn't folding he probably wasn't playing a game in the background whatever everything in its stock form never even opened it before is it a prebuilt hmm are there even pre volts I have 20 ATT eyes in them right now I well I'm sure you could get something from like main gear origin any of those guys was chatting the card itself i hain't opened it he's kind of like he never opened it up but like yes it's a weird thing to say segue segue speaking of weird things or things that also are smoldering in fire there's a new agreement between Amazon and Apple where shoppers will soon see a selection of the latest Apple products on amazon.com now correct me if I'm wrong but historically you can only buy iPhones from Apple like apple.com or Apple stores or Apple like or like if you're gonna go to like t-mobile the ask style stories so so yeah okay that's an interesting one yeah if you go to a cell phone like a cellular provider yeah they have it but Best Buy's would have like Apple sections of their stores it would usually be an Apple representative there even though you could be for online sales was it always just Apple Doc mom okay honestly not enough of a Mac fanboy to care so I never knew many sure but yeah as far as I know anyway you'll be able to buy them now on Amazon and this has some serious implications pretty especially for the resale for like the refurbished ones so okay let's just go through this year currently many Apple products are only available on Amazon through third-party resellers and their prices and conditions vary wildly and that's not apples way sorry so one of the things like he paid for you paid for special effects and he got them they're talking with the guy what is the best version of art it could ever ask for the lighting off of that fire was probably perfect yo yeah there are elections on the tempered-glass yeah hyperreal I could feel it yeah sorry sorry Q PI Apple likes to control all the products right that's why they have authorized resellers never yeah they don't want you to go on eBay and buy a random like that no conditions that are they don't want you buying them from other people they don't want you repairing them etc it's that they want to control the pipeline as much as possible so now currently today there are resellers there's all sorts of people on Amazon Marketplace that are selling different Apple products in various conditions but that will not be the case going forward because the deal will limit resellers of Apple and Beats products to those authorized by Apple independent sellers of Apple products will have their look their listings that may be online right now removed after January 4 2019 that's pretty soon yeah that's potentially ripping an entire business that would be your livelihood oh yeah it is for lots of lots of different sellers they were all emailed they got an email from Amazon saying that this is the case and the only the only recourse they have is that well you can apply to Apple to become one of their verified resellers like that's gonna happen well yeah I know maybe for a very small minority so the reason this is weird though is because there's something in the u.s. that's called first sale doctrine so the United States Supreme Court has ruled that people who legally owned a product may legally resell it and federal law protects the right that right under something known as a first sale doctrine and in quotes from that doctrine is an individual who knowingly purchases a copy of a copyrighted work from the copyright holder receives the right to sell display or otherwise dispose of that particular individual car don't think that has anything to do with this though it does though cuz listen okay so Apple can't control that you know they can't just have their normal authorized resellers they can't control the secondary market because once you own a thing yourself you can sell it as you want but if one of the biggest resale markets in the world is amazon.com and if Apple enters an agreement with Amazon whereby all the Apple products sold on Amazon have to adhere to the deal that they strike thereby they can circumvent it absolutely yes technically I believe that's legal what would have to happen here as far as I know is it would have to be shown that Amazon is effectively a monopoly of online sales for them to to be able to cover that because right now it's an individual company being like we don't want to use those people that's completely fine you can decide that people aren't allowed to sell through your platform that's they're allowed to do that now okay I'm not saying I necessarily agree with any of this stuff or disagree that I'm just saying right now that law won't really affect us because an individual is still completely allowed to sell that thing just they just won't and Amazon does what's the percentage of online sales that's Amazon probably like this is seventy or something in it for the u.s. yes like over ten percent of retail in general I think at this point Wow but it's it's huge this does apply though to their global all the global reach of Amazon so that's France Germany UK US Italy Spain Japan and India I don't see Canada on that list interestingly the other thing that's weird is or I guess expected is that home pod is not gonna be sold on Amazon because there's a competitor yeah cuz they don't because they have the Amazon echo they also don't sell the Google of Google home yeah and so I guess there was another spat that I didn't know about between Apple and Amazon where yeah so until last year you couldn't get apple TV on Amazon and so because Apple wanted Amazon to sell the TV but in turn Amazon wanted the app for Amazon Prime video to appear on the Apple TV and then Apple didn't want that so they so the Apple TV was for sale on Amazon but then it got pulled because Bezos said that his reasoning was like if you're buying an Apple TV on Amazon the customer it's reasonable for a customer to expect that Amazon's properties Amazon's video is gonna be included on this product that you bought from Amazon and when that's not happening the user could be disappointed I'm not sure if I totally buy that argument but it's reasonable that was the rationale there they got past that though so then today you can buy Apple TVs on Amazon and Amazon Prime video is on them similar to the spat that they had between having YouTube on Amazon was on echoes on the echo show having YouTube on you chose between Amazon Google someone in chat is saying that rule 12 whatever that means of us trade law so I guess that's what that means also prevents contracts from limiting third party sale as well that sounds extremely vague and not all-inclusive and I'm sure there's more to that law and I'm sure there's other laws that deal with that law we don't know all of American law no I don't but presumably this deal was made by lawyers yeah on both sides they probably know what's going they probably know what that check I knows yeah and that appears to be going through yeah I wonder with your point about them being a monopoly I wonder if it's relative to online like they're a monopoly on the line or is it just broadly in in general monopoly law has not been used as much as it used to be used it used to be a lot more active in terms of crushing monopolies and stop him from Napoles from happening but for quite a few years now they've been pretty passive about that stuff so not only am I not sure but I don't necessary know that they would step in anyways and then there's another layer of analysis or whatever where it's like are the monopoly of specifically selling Apple products well I guess that's not even a consideration because Apple hasn't been up and selling Apple products is it every individual business so and this actually increases the competition there I wonder also if they're getting a bigger if Apple pays less to Amazon for each sale than other products they're like look normally they're getting it directly right they don't have to pay out any middlemen at all interesting I don't know I know absolutely special deals going on I just don't I I can't imagine what they necessarily are whether it's like you're you're saving on logistics or like maybe all the shipping and handling is going to be handled by Apple instead of Amazon I would imagine that they're gonna have fulfillment advantages when it launches being able to get it in one day rather than you know i pre-ordered it I'm getting mine first but I have to wait and tell them they all reach me Amazon is really good at getting things to you fast so there'll be some synergies for sure yeah people are bringing up law stuff we are not claiming to know stuff someone's saying they're not a monopoly cuz they're in the international market but but yeah I have no idea sounds good though I guess this will be something that we watch unfold over the next little while we'll see what happens when I guess on January 4th it'll be interesting yeah that's when the other ones I get pulled for sure another interesting thing rumor time valve working on half-life 2 prequel for VR half-life BR yeah it's been VR has been interesting for a little while now because I used to I used to make videos every once in a while I think I made two in total talking about how VR is like kind of dying at least in terms of its its current hype not in terms of VR is like dying with a killing blow I mean they're dying in terms of they're going down it's like no currency hated me for that it's like much it's the future but just stop talking about because it's like it's the future right now you're a 92 yeah yeah so and people hated me for that pretty hardcore both times and I was like guys and it's still yeah but you have to do it so you're like it's like a self-fulfilling process it was bad it was I was a bad person for doing that but one thing that I held on at that time and I still hold on now is there certain companies in the space that are gonna make sure they keep on pushing forward which is exactly what we need Bethesda well they're they're not always in everyone's good graces seem to be holding up that trumpet for VR and just keep pushing keep announcing more games in VR valve keeps on pushing it's good this kind of stuff is really awesome to hear I don't necessarily think this is gonna like be the the winning ticket that's gonna make everyone buy a VR headset and like continue to consume VR content because that seems to be actually the biggest problem is people buy headsets and then lose interest pretty quick well everyone calm down I know you like your headset I'm just saying a lot of people well hold your horses because this could come out in a decade that we have no idea very witness will come out so it could be the case that it comes out it's right on somewhat epic wave and the momentum just goes and goes well valve time is very real yeah so this could be this could be forever away but yeah they're reportedly working on their own virtual why yeah hooray they're reportedly working on their own virtual reality titles to fully and take advantage of upcoming hardware like the knuckles controllers which are cool including a new half-life game but not three according to a valve news network Valve's own VR headset is deep in development and when it eventually launches it will be bundled with a game probably this one that game is rumored to be half-life VR story and it's said to be a prequel to the events of half-life 2 now prequel the half-life 2 is not half-life 1 I guess is half-life 1.5 so I guess like the Gateway to the other dimensions open but the combine haven't fully taken over earth yet which they did in like 7 hours so somewhere in there yeah maybe the whole game takes place over that 7 hours maybe I don't know if it's gonna be apparently a first pour maybe it's uh okay yeah so how do you walk around there's multiple different ways you could do that how do you think they'll do it most I want to be surprised of whose teleportation personally I actually prefer teleportation over like shortwave teleported have you played Duke we argue no so basically you get your controller and you have like an arc that you can shoot out and it'll put a spot on the ground yeah teleported like that and different VR things yeah I personally prefer that over joystick movement turistic movement starts to like that's too much yeah I would prefer to teleport and then be able to physically move within whatever my bounds are within my newly teleported space is that how doom does it yeah what we'll have to see the movement in VR is gonna be a problem for a while I have no clue how they'll solve it someone will solve it and then it will be glorious movement and full-body immersion it just seems that even if and when they saw that stuff it's gonna be such a high barrier to entry it's gonna oh yeah like I'm not even buying the our Matt well we fix like ah that's a whole other couple hundred dollar thing yeah well not not even that not even very likely upgrading your computer I know not necessarily for a lot of people in this audience but for most people upgrading or getting a computer in the first place then having the space for it then the headset itself is really expensive really really expensive and even if it wasn't there was actually a really interesting blog post by Palmer Luckey recently I know he's fairly controversial in a few different ways but if you ignore all of that and just read the blog post it's very interesting I would highly recommend it it where he talks about even if VR headsets were zero dollars it wasn't that one called like free is not cheap enough yeah right and it's it's I very much stand behind a lot of the points that he brings up it's it's right now VR is super cool there's a lot of really good experiences you can have in VR what is that I always forget the name of games I'm saber o beat saber is super fun really really cool idea what do you do you have light sabers essentially and you have to hit these blocks but you have to hit them in the right direction okay so it brings in a lot of movement you're sort of dancing and music playing it's it's a really good way to get you engaged I know Linus plays what I believe is called box VR where he literally just boxing and he has a lot of fun with it a lot of people can find something that they really enjoy he's a lot of very cool experiences in PR but most of them are really cool for a very confined amount of time they don't keep you on a headset and getting the headset on most people don't want to wear this big clunky thing on their head the controller's a little wacky there's a lot of problems with VR disconnections a lot of people feel a little bit sick still that is still a problem I know it's massively reduced from the past but that is still a problem it's interesting because there's a lot of factors here where you're you just hear well we should bring back arcades this is conducive to arcades but then there's other things that aren't like the space and like Real Estate's really expensive you know if you're gonna have a business that is predicated on people coming in and playing VR you're gonna need a few setups and each setup needs a pretty big space and eye herpes and eye herpes nobody wants to wear another mask and sweat on your face like it's it's no there's there's a lot of problems with VR right now there's a lot of surmountable problems so that's a good spot to be in yeah there's definitely a very strong very strong future for VR very strong future for AR all right very strong future for eye herpes yeah okay careful when you're sharing your headsets give people the clean the lens off that's a thing by the way Google at your own and as far as we know no one contracted eye Herbie's at the last LTX know a little wipes on site no reported cases yeah that a super check or is that just a tag the pink one it's gone in the chat though that's just cause someone's doing at - tech and twitch chat oh that's a highlights it would think okay it makes it easier for broadcasters to see when people are talking directly to them instead of people are talking more system that's useful it's a super traps get highlighted in hell don't they yes this is also twitch they don't have know we get on a twitch to hear oh here we go I think we read those at the and have you heard of magically yeah yeah I've heard of magically let's do ad spots really quick let's jump in boss organizer well put up any one of those I'm gonna give you this one I like this one better one thing I really really like about that one that I bring up every single time they sponsor the show and I think it's the same with all their bags yes it is really bright orange inside I haven't even read what I'm supposed to say yet I just want to bring this up super bright reflective orange insides really cool it looks even more contrasting black at the bottom here you can see the bottom every bag should have that yes yeah it's amazing there's no more like oh I can't find this like black pen in the bottom my bag cuz my bullet the entire inside of my bag is all black and I can't see blacking it's black very well so even have the the black pack but on the inside it's bright orange so you can find things really easily I love it it's so wonderful and it's like slightly reflective so it bounces light around really nicely so you can eat things see things really well anyways here's the animal put an lzt logo on that it would toll mash the color scheme just saying we should get patches that people can sew on stuff we should just get a bag the moss we should we should take this offline but I love that idea I mean I think of a clever name that puts it yeah Moss Moss tips I don't know whatever Moss organizer keeps you protected and organized by making simple products with really cool features I'm heading that little bit in myself the moss backpacks are great for traveling to and from work or internationally while keeping all your electronics safe Moss packing grande this is the black pack is this grande it looks bigger it does look bigger I'm not sure though but moss pack grande fits up to 17 inch laptop this looks like it would fit some teachers laptop I'm not sure the black pack fits laptops up to fifteen point six inches made of sixteen ATD ballistic nylon it feels pretty bullets that's the cool to be honest that makes it tear and abrasion resistant yeah feels like Morgan Freeman that sucker will stop a knife zippers are good too they feel like it one thing that I don't like about a lot of zippers is when they'll get stuck to the side you know what I mean I mean you have to like mess with it and readjust it so you can get it in line so you can pull it properly I have that problem on some rain shells yeah or I have to like go like this sideways and stuff yeah oh I mean like when you're trying to zip it up and it gets stuck sideways oh yeah and you have to like rotate it around and get it to these don't have that problem at all happen I love it it's great the built-in rain fly on the black pack provides extra padding for your electronics when not in use it comes out of the bottom Oh so if you like clunk your bag down and you're not a 12-ounce on the otherwise so I used to use a cover for my backpack when I was going to school because I wouldn't your shopping bag yeah so it was much less elegant but these are actually really smart I used to bike to school so a lot of rain would wake up on to my bag and my what I believe was a garbage bag would keep it clean but I'd have to keep swapping out because it was a freaking garbage bag so if you have this it's probably better off internal mounting for reach see and reach plus power adapters also has a five-year warranty check it out in the links below and get

giving this so have the stickers on it doesn't have any details in here about us giving it to someone well it's a nice power supply maybe he just wanted to practice that looks so professional even in the placement of the signature knee yeah it looks like it could have been like printed on there anyways I don't think it is so you're interested and if you're watching on YouTube later for the vaad there will be a link in the description for Amazon if not I'm sure you can find it super easy did you do oh yeah here's a pretty easy link lmg dot g g /c sonic prime boom plus you get this bag dude the bags actually really nice because then you throw your spare cables in the bag oh no dude then you never get to use the bag transporting alcohol in public and style oh well is that Crown Royal no it's it's absolute but it's new folding phone details folding phones the folding screen the galaxy F are you interested I'm interested most people think it's not cool I think it's super oh I totally want to check that puppy oh yeah I remember the last CES we went to there was a ZTE holding phone and I thought that's probably junk but we checked it out and it was way lighter than I thought and when I opened it it was pretty cool that one has a seam it's actually just two screens yeah and there's a hinge right it was pretty good but this will be next level I think this is gonna be a real trendsetter I wouldn't be surprised of Apple well they don't want to cannibalize their iPads but I think this is an amazing product it's got quite a kind of thick boy bezel going on okay so the and just the general bezel around the screen bezel really see that again really that's a pretty that's like a quarter inch or like a half inch top a big boy I do I do know when they were showing this off they like dimmed the lights and as far as I know the the body that it's in itself is not final that's right see the silhouette it was like a brick yeah yeah I'm gonna be willing to make trade-offs like that yeah it'll be interesting and no iterate on it like that looks you know it's pretty thick like if it's like a full phone of thickness on each side carrying two phones in your pocket all the time what if it's like that thick it's pretty thick look at that I mean people have done it like we did it dude I've carried multiple phones all the time we're like in high school when you had a flip phone they were just different dimensions yeah usually they were really short though the real question is is there is there any use when it's open and you're actually using that beautiful big screen do you care does it offer you any value that looks really big that mock-up in that person's hand looks really big I know what that looks like that looks like the size of my wife's note 8 in a giant wallet case that she has okay yeah but then that's it folded so then it's like a book I I think there's use because personally if I'm let's look at the pixel 3 for instance pixel 3 is small small for me yeah one hand I can type on it just fine but I like typing with two hands when I can yeah and I can type with one hand on a pixel 3xl it's a little bit of a stretch but I can do it just fine do all the time but if I had like a big nice screen and I was to hand typing sure I don't know man cuz do you ever turn your try typing on landscape yeah it's gonna be like this wide that's not fine for me it's annoying yeah it's like you gotta you can't just think it's gonna do you can't just let your thumbs go you have to like tilt your hand to get to the middle yeah yeah but you're a thick boy - was here you'd have to like take his hand off to get to them but that's the thing that's where like I think some of the smaller phone form factors it's kind of sad that they're going away because sometimes it's nice that like for my daily driver I like bigger phones generally but sometimes it's nice to have a little phone yeah I want the pixel three the small one yeah cuz I do a lot of one-handed yeah and I I don't have one of those things on the back the rings that you put your finger soo family is a godsend it makes you know like makes your big phone one handable yeah I've tried him out but I've never had it one myself apparently I love it if I get it I don't girlfriend one of those she loves it but I just yeah I don't know I I think I think okay but in this situation yeah see it's weird cause like that's it he's doing like this like that actually looks pretty small it does not look the same in this photo where he's actually holding it that's that's close so that's a back that's that's a this one it's close to and in this one it looks like it's huge but then when he's actually home a rendering though that's true and this is the and that chassis is like not the chassis so it'll probably even be smaller than that I would think so and probably has different different bevels and champers and stuff so what do you think about using Matt generally and then opening it up what do you even want to because if you open up he can't like the message basically everything I do on my freakin phone is messaging of some sort okay now so this is a second screen right whenever you when it's closed there's a secondary screen that you can use and that screen alone is I think like 4.7 inches or something like that which is like pretty big yeah that's I don't even know why they really have that I mean cuz there are some phone cases for regular phones that when you close them there's a little window yeah and they work with the phone software to have like notifications and you have clock in that little window and I think that would be sufficient this is just like so much more than like at some point why even open it I think that's the idea because with this screen yeah that's a lot of screen isn't it geez with in terms of the battery drain idea I mean it's only it's OLED so it'll turn off be completely off yeah I'd be scared about breaking it more than the battery but with this screen if you need to one hand you can really easily don't lose that functionality I don't know I really don't know if I buy it who do you think are interesting you think it's like kind of like the BlackBerry market those people who actually want to run a spreadsheet dude I think it's gonna be massive in Korea Korea has crew and like I'm not surprised Samsung's making it Korea has always loved gigantic phones mmm absolutely monstrous sized phones and like was really the first time I was in Korea you see people with like TV antennas off their phones yeah yeah they had a whole different broadcasting yeah yeah but like but like huge format phones were massive there can we go back to because what about you know people are streaming more and more of their devices what about content consumption if you turn that puppy sideways what aspect ratio is that like four by three or something I don't know like you're gonna get something you're gonna get some black bars one thing I really like about this open format though is split screen stuff yeah which was really cool in the ZTE one that we tried yeah it's there's a lot of cases that it's useful to have like your calendar open and your email or something like if I can be messaging and like almost let's say almost like separate desktop style it split screen a little bit more aggressive than they currently have because if you know like the floating give Facebook message or on your fly have you had bad heads yeah I hate those if you have chat heads open I understand that you hate them but if you have them open and when you expand it it doesn't fill your whole screen it just fills up like the messaging portion of your screen yeah you can be watching a video and be doing email and have the chat had annoying you all the time and and like it that sounds very cool for productivity be able to watch or observe something it kind of screws YouTube I you need to have the premium YouTube in order to be watching a video and minimize the app and do other things on your phone with this you just keep it open although the YouTube app doesn't support split screen right so what do you have to support split screen for you to be able to I said I almost want to be a better version where it's like multi desktop like separated I think that's yeah I don't think it's the same as actual Android split screen if I remember the ZTE one they have the buttons along the bottom to choose what you want it so one button was like put my whole thing as one screen one button was make it a and B yeah cuz was with like an A and B set up YouTube might not be able to say no yeah because I don't think it's actually the same as Android split screen and then they had a third button that was a and a and because with that phone you could put it in like tent mode so you I could put it here and you could watch it and I could watch it kind of an edge case weird let's watch this together but from really far away it's just like you don't have to go like this to watch a video we can just like here check on this video I can hold my phone like that and we're both watching it sure his eyes are smiling he likes this part does he like this music video I can feel his breath I mean that's useful like on a train or something right sure yeah I could see people doing it it's just not how to preserve my thing anyway okay no but the new things were that it's called F which is not that sexy no yo is that the F good enough Brooke sounds kinda like ass but it's less cool f bomb yeah and the other new thing is the price whoa I had not looked at that yet Oh God - phone $1,770 ah I get it I'm not gonna buy it I understand the price I understand why it has to be that expensive we got so many screens the thing's huge you're gonna need a our answers the Rd like yeah I'm working on this for you they're not gonna sell that many of them it's such a premium device yes it's I get it butthole it's amazing that they're like beating Apple in their own game in a way I love how some people in in chat have started saying F for the price so like respects so it's like that pay respects for this phone called an F I want to riff on this Apple angle though it's interesting because right now you're seeing smart phones flatten out it's a mature market yes everyone in the dogs making them yeah when a new category gets kind of forged by the innovator usually having a vertically integrated product gives you an advantage because when your company is handling all the different parts of it then you get this kind of performance Delta that you benefit from and that's what i thought svenne affiliate from for years and they're losing that performance Delta now as as the product gets commoditized and yet now you're seeing Samsung which actually is also a vertically integrated phone company in ways different Apple Apple has the hardware and software integration samsung has has a hardware integration across the stack like they make the screens they make all these other components they make more of their phones components than any other cell phone maker out there as far as I know and so it's a different type of vertical integration and in this case it's still in 2018 giving them a performance Delta where they're the ones who get to actually innovate not by just like removing headphone jacks and actually put out this this crazy perhaps revolutionary or at least evolutionary product which is pretty cool and they're also beating Apple in there in own game insofar as finding a way to charge a but ton of money for a phone yeah whereas like with Apple they've kind of got all the Apple customers in the world that exist and now they're just trying to squeeze more money a per customer and by pushing the price up to $1,500 for the new 10s at almost 2 grand that's that's gonna be more than like a not not a majority at all but a significant notable percentage of the amount of people watching this show it'll be more than their first car definitely more than the desktop 7 a lot of its 70 US dollars yeah like I think that's know that's about the global monthly income the global average monthly income yeah so that's crazy okay put it this way though if you're gonna get the most expensive iPhone 10s Mac's 256 gigabyte version it's like fifteen hundred and fifty dollars would you spend an extra hundred or two hundred dollars to get this I wouldn't get a max so it's like a bit of a difficult question but I understand where you're coming from and maybe I also think it might have a really good space not that this space is even going to necessarily be around for all that long but if you gave this phone to someone who had like who was who did not grow up with phones and was somewhat vision impaired by a little bit the like expanded icon version on this phone is gonna be awesome okay you take this thing on your pocket you unfold it and you just have this huge screen if you need to Peck type it's gonna be easy I think there's give me certain demographics that love this phone I think there's a lot of people in the world where their phone is their computer yeah I think there's business people like they're gonna have like the BlackBerry market like every real estate agent is gonna have this phone because they like to flex and because you know they got to open up their day planner and it'd be awesome to have your calendar open that big yeah drew I can't read the rest of your name because it blends in with the pinkish hue of that message really aggressively yeah I'm not I wouldn't get a max largely because I don't like Samsung software he was like would would get a max but wouldn't buy or but is interested in a pixel three XL first of all not really people three excels are kind of a disaster I think all phones right now our little derp but yeah I'm sitting on an original L XL XL Wow with like a cracked screen and a basically fried out battery and I just don't think this thing's gonna have junk battery life on the one hand it's pretty big maybe has two batteries on the other hand it has three big screams put there oh that's they can turn off yeah if you have two batteries and you usually just use the one screen like you could drag that battery out for a long time of it cool although I think you'll notice a significant decrease in battery oh yeah start unfolding it very often yeah yeah that's gonna be pretty I hope it has a satisfying click when you open it yeah yeah yeah yeah that's what's all that or what if you put a ring on the back of it and you can just take it out of your pocket with one hand equal finish well yeah honestly that would sound so if you're watching if Samsung's watching change is that good that's your ad right there that's your commercial be like Zorro that's zero that's your unlock was so sweet RTX in battlefield five finally you'll be able to use your thingamajiggy in the first pup unless you're got scarred lit on fire if it's not ashes you can finally play available official title with r-tx on paired with g-force for 16.9 for wickel drivers Windows 10 1809 and patch battlefield 5 you haven't heard that yeah you'll be in for a surprise the performance drops roughly 50% hey man whatever man it costs a lot to look this good we got some actual frame a frame rate numbers oh my god so there's a link if you click through to the the second source you can actually see some screens Oh what am i selling bug that prevented them from testing a medium sure no okay yeah apparently what happened was the when they tried to set it to medium it would actually just keep the settings from the last one they were on so if they went from low to medium it would show they were just running low and if they went from high to meet him he would run it high oh ok so if they were running with the ray tracing off with their at 1080p with their 20 atti which I can tell you I've played a bit of battlefield 5 looks beautiful well it can look more beautiful if you don't want 150 8.8 frames per second and you're like hey I'll take 65 that's a 20 atti and a 1080p screen unless you're going for a crazy high refresh rate at which point in time you're not turning on r-tx or you're not turning on ray tracing actually say more specifically yeah well you can you can run in 4k at 30fps hey man that used to be enough oh really actually if you go really far back in gaming like original I think there's Mario Kart and stuff is still 60 but you could do 4k with r-tx on low or DXL the XR on low or a medium it provided medium works because they have given us levels you can do off low medium high and ultra and so 4k Ultra is 30fps is that right that's right so turning on ray tracing at all you get a no matter what level you get a huge reduction they should have shown us yeah I want more stuff than this I'll order that go to here there's ten stuff is there more yeah they did if there's a full I'm right there yeah just touch it got the touch this is the visuals if you go to the bottom okay hold on hold on expansive those it looks cool they're not the same screenshots no this is all this this isn't a side-by-side comparison this is just all on okay good but if you go to the bottom there's a table of contents thing you can go to performance insight maybe Oh what though I think it's ultra and low yeah there's not that much of a difference between low and ultra so if you gonna draw that's ultra so if you're looking at the reflection and the if you look at the reflection in the window that reflection is all still there that's so cool though with r-tx hey you can't not seen unrelated things oh no no that's not true I just didn't see them the first time so the light on these like little metal bars show a lot more it's so cool that you can better you can look through a window that's transparent and even though you're looking through and seeing the environment through the window you're you're also seeing the reflection of the stuff behind you that wasn't possible before and that's so realistic it's so super cool and you get that regardless of its lower ultra so I think a lot of people are end up turning it on and running it out low it's pretty awesome how it makes it worse competitively that's pretty cool I hope a lot of you guys turn that on so I can kill you more easily a game memory usage performance Ultra ultra ultra where's like scroll more or at the bottom are its it we look so if it says ultra up here is that assuming DX horizontal track no no no here that means the game is running at ultra 27 but then it stops deep break that's because this is off and then it's getting higher details so where's 20 this is a little well it's all the different cards right this is what are you looking for any ultra check up here I don't see anymore 20 yeah TI ultra right there medium oh right cuz the medium was glitched or whatever right yeah so DX are low what oh that's 2070 they don't have 28 DTI with the XR low yeah oh it's farther down this way derp I'm still reading this backwards so there's 0.5 FPS difference between ultra and high for DX are at 4k this is 1440 yeah Sony ATI DX are high 52.6 fps so you'll have to and then medium still bugs damn it so it's the the sweet spot above the sweet spots probably luckily with my monitor haha 1440p tornado TI DX are on medium once it actually works you'll be above 60 fps and you'll still have the XR on and I guess low is still pretty nice I will note that there is actually a pretty major difference I agree with you if you want those reflections and stuff just having it on minimum is it's pretty cool but in those side-by-sides especially the bars in the window that actually stood out to me a lot yeah like if you're just going for realism that looks that looks nice you can barely see the bars on the window on the first one and they really stand out on the second one whether or not okay to be completely honest whether or not that's a good thing whether or not that's actually realistic I don't know because if they're black bar that's how they would look right well yeah who knows I don't know where materials with bars are supposed to be of no way if there's a light directly shiny on them yeah so we can I can't really tell I don't know turn it on during the campaign yeah that sucker on lo of online yeah and let the frames rip and like in this situation the gun it looks different is it supposed to be that dirty or is it supposed to be shiny like this I don't know they can both be fairly realistic I'm not sure but I would play around with it in single-player you will be literally better off turning it off and multiplayer we've talked about that in the past and one final thing to wrap up Stanley died this week guys maybe 95 yeah dad on Monday luckily I will say like obviously it's sad but we have to look back on the positive stuff you've lived a long and very fulfilling life I think I think what a legend yeah exact rest and power Stanley exactly what a legend like it's so crazy when you're a kid and you're watching let's say you're watching like a spider-man 90s cartoon yeah and any of these heroes is is presented with a dilemma there's a the right thing to do in the wrong thing to do and not only these shows kind of kind of teach kids the idea of what the right thing to do is but the you watch enough of these that you're sitting there as a child and you know what the right thing to do is and you know that hero's gonna do that thing it's just so crazy that a person can take part in creating the mythology our entire society is nuts that's the crazy he did that people like him do that I guess Disney that kind of stuff does that but um that's just like the entire imagination of the culture he lived a long life he impacted more lives than the vast majority of people ever like the vast vast majority of people ever in a positive way and I think he made a lot of really really really cool things that will live on for a very long time speaking of cool things Netflix added a where if you're in your search bar you type in Excel C or with an exclamation point which is Stanley's catch phrase used to sign off his articles with that yeah it will just bring up all the marble oh no that's cool search results there your results are gonna vary depending on the region you're in but just a little Easter egg which is pretty cool and I got some little Stanley facts here okay go okay did you know that he's been in 16 Marvel films since the first two thousands x-men and because he doesn't scammy oh yeah they're actually in the contract really there's a contract that stipulates he has to appear in every film that's based on the character he created isn't it awesome that's cool that's what my favorite one there's a couple other facts and you guys can check out oh yeah there's actually three cameos still to come and I was also gonna actually ask this question you know how Star Wars did like CGI oh yeah yeah passed away what do you think if they just kept cameo Stanley honestly kind of cool that would be kind of cool personally there's a there's an interview with who is it the person who took over like the current CEO of Marvel and he's he apparently visited Stanley before not like two days before he passed away and he said that he was he was still talking about even though he had like accepted allegedly accepted his fate he was still talking about doing future cameos because he just it was like he loved doing the cameos as long as didn't have to travel he was like his like favorite thing to do so I think it would be kind of cool do you make sense I feel like it's something he would want to do I feel like even though he his body is now gone the the things he created still live long and I think you would want to be a part of it personally and he is gonna appear in Ralph's breaks the internet the sequel to record elf he's gonna be in spider-man into the spot or yeah into the spider verse is the next movie I guess and he might end up being in Avengers 4 which is coming out in May and but going with what you're talking about he actually is immortalized in the amazing spider-man game from I believe 2017 because there's like some DLC where you can play as Stanley and you can like web sling we have that link you can check out on on YouTube I don't know we don't have it linked to now you can google it so we do have a link there it is there's a YouTube clip speaking of crazy stuff detective Pikachu do we want to I don't know there's a kind of an uncanny valley thing going on with those Pokemon it's weird it's weird I don't know if there is a good way to do this I'm not gonna see this movie guys you're not gonna see it I'll see it if the reviews are off the chain but they're not there it's gonna be junk it's gonna be okay from the director though okay some of them some of the Pokemon are weird that's I think my biggest problem with it like the what is it is your mine and the mr. minds hands that's what that's what I'm saying this uncanny valley they have like this realistic skin it's kind of creepy even even Pikachu's like dude like to high-res my man but what did you want I don't think there's a Charmander is like whoa they look weird or not the charm at or the Charizard the bolsters like what that thing's really weird I think it's an Eevee I'm not even sure her ninja looks fine to be completely honest I don't know they should've gotten a Psyduck that's so weird Charizard looks good at the end yeah the mr. monster mimes hands the rest of it I don't actually bother see all the like weird like this is definitely a glove wrinkles oh yeah it's weird I don't know from the director who brought you such classics as shark tales monsters vs. aliens Gulliver's Travels and goosebumps I mean do you think that they're consistent at least like what that looks like that painting the screen yeah you think that there's consistency across the different Pokemon do you know they have our stick harmony know you think they all looked like one-offs kind of yeah yeah I don't know I'm not that into it I don't know what chat necessarily thinks if this gets a rotten tomatos of +75 and an IMDB of over seven I'll go so you're not going a lot of people are pissed though it's Ryan Ryan Reynolds they don't think it I don't know they don't think he fits I think it's okay I don't care him being Pikachu yeah I think that's maybe a little weird I feel like he'd be better as like Meowth or something big time Big Time bags me out yeah yeah like a more playful kind of character Pikachu was always very I don't know he's a little more cutesy yeah like very much so would do a good Pikachu I have no idea - someone beloved and maybe a higher voice I don't know I feel like a higher voice cuz we're I'm Reynolds is just Ryan Reynolds in every movie you know yeah yeah yeah I feel like a higher voice probably someone with a little bit less like yeah the Ryan Reynolds style a little bit I love Ryan Reynolds Ryan if you're watching this local boy no hate hell yeah and you're not just Ryan Reynolds oh I've seen you and evil whore it was really good you were serious it was good but I don't think he's Pikachu I think you could pull off to be honest quite a few different Pokemon very well especially the ones that talk like now yeah I can't think of who would be a good now if I think is like typecasted perfectly but there's I think there's a few others that would play really well with Ryan Reynolds style game a squirtle even hell yeah that obscure little squad leader Ryan Reynolds is so dope deal with the sunglasses come on those triangle ones yeah you could pull it off so well I just I don't personally think Pikachu was the right decision here yeah I mean him being in the movie 100% give me a Pokemon movie where Ryan Reynolds is the voice of every Pokemon sit except to be honest that would be funny in its own right and like other people are saying Danny DeVito oh that's brutal but it's funny someone someone put some Danny DeVito lyrics with Pikachu and spree funny yeah that's enough that's it that's it for the show I hope you liked it if you did come back next week and then I'm gonna press this fight oh it's super Chad did anyone even super chat us okay so let's go through some of these firstly I think that ray-tracing is just a distraction to Moore's law we can't really increase performance anymore you can look at what we can yeah one you go that's how Swiss is pretty clean I don't like TouchWiz thank you all for the donations by the way shout-out to you guys and - love what you do keep it up we need you guys to hold manufacturers to the fire yeah get past their marketing BS yeah a quality product certainly deserves attention shudder to Linus shout-out Linus yeah - but using Korea dude is not here anymore four of those signed 850-watt PSU is being given away entries are closed though got it who said that MAPE so he probably knows what he's talking about yeah yeah I would I would I would classify that as like a certified mmm major side yeah we should get a stamp MAPE certified I'd be down I'd be a hundred down first-time caller longtime listener what's a favorite mean mean yeah J's I like the UH I was pretty good at kid it's pretty good that kids pretty good when I'm trying to be Savage I really like that one that's that guy he's like gives you these eyes he's like okay you know there's a I think so yeah oh yes yes it does a little bit my role thing I was like yeah that was insulting someone insulted me with it once and I was like oh that's a savage one my favorite two are the why not both talk oh girl you see ry now my god that was hilarious because that's what you definitely one way through memes I saw you guys did that night great and then the other one is probably it's like a I think it's a husky and it's just sitting there like this and it says K like qu e with a bunch of question marks all over the place there's a new elastic this is to see a channel super fun with Alex's potato cannon oh don't let Alex see that Thanks we should you as a floatplane exclusive maybe why miss was POTUS we'd have coherent tweets he can't be so I guess rip to us he doesn't want to do politics though I think he might in the future and his when he's old he's too old for YouTube yeah would be interesting I wouldn't vote from them just to troll them can ldt look into the molecule air purifier no that's not that's not a second guys don't no way it's the same dude yeah we did don't forget to feed Nana Anthony needs Suze something I don't know what's going on here can you guys chill for like fifteen to thirty seconds when you start the stream we on Twitch have to watch an ad and miss out on those valuable seconds I don't think we can chill yeah sorry sorry guys I appreciate the idea though did you do someone said I'm cooing that's good I mean mobile phones it's pretty cool I'm peeing right now that's impressive to be completely honest and soon we'll be cold and I will have to go good morning from India what's up what's up do you like that then yeah I'm subscribed to PewDiePie I heard he needs more Indian subscribers anyways cut that off though I will see you guys next time next Friday
