AMD Mobile CPUs - 200% FASTER!! - WAN Show October 27, 2017

2017-10-28
and we're live wow did we do a pre-show welcome to the wine show ah someone did a pre-show nice yeah that's right um I was working I was working too I noticed that mr. Colten actually officially changed the start time of the wine show family to 2 to 5 he changed it to 5 but then he told me he changed it to 5 so it didn't work well that's a fail yeah can't tell us that you changed it to 5 we would have like probably never noticed yep and we would have like we would have tried really hard to hit 4 o'clock or 4:30 and then and then bran would have actually hit 5 but he told us he changed it to 5 so now we're screwed you can't make us comfortable I think we should change it back to 4:30 yeah yeah yeah and then change it back to 5 at some time and don't tell us this week was freaking crazy you want to talk about you think that you Winton did yeah it was it was actually really awesome so yesterday this was a totally last minute thing like I didn't find out until so what was yesterday we're trying to plan it for a little while yeah no no it's been possibly happening for like weeks yeah but then so Thursday I went down for a tour of monolith productions so they're best known probably for their work on road trips online okay I'm just gonna be I knew them from that I actually made probably like almost no I knew that did that I played really yeah you played the major saw might almost no amount of time you know there's you know there's like a fan server like there's a guy who is he like packet sniffed to figure out what the server was doing yeah and like it's super broken like it's it's like actually really really broken and terrible like you basically can't do anything and I think you have to enter text commands in order to do things oh yeah like it's like really broken and it's still up but he's been working on it like since it went down back in whatever that would be like 2007 2009 I don't remember when it went down what a hobby yeah what a hobby indeed but anyway sorry probably better known for fear condemned fear too and then more fear series definitely yeah yeah so Middle Earth shadow of Mordor and Middle Earth shadow of war yeah are probably what they are better known for developing and those last two have been done since the Warner Brothers acquisitions that's how they managed to get the rights to me yeah middle-earth games yeah so so anyway I got to go down there and check these guys out and I didn't find out that I was going to be going until I think Tuesday late Tuesday night and I left here early frier Leith ursday morning so I actually had to get up at like 6:15 in the morning and then meet pella at the office and then we had to leave the office by about 7:30 7:45 that got us down there for a little after 10:00 and then we shot all day so we actually shot for they have a lot of stuff at their studio half hour lunch so we shot heard like 10 hours or so and then we left late at night we got some five guys on the way back that was pretty sick yeah go down to America without getting some five guys in Canada what yeah how do you know this is it cheaper than it is down there because two burgers and one medium fries was almost 30 Canadian dollars so there's a fun guys in north van and just like it's you know but it's there you know whose host that's new oh wow that's crazy yeah I don't know if they're like anywhere else yeah it doesn't look like it oh cool okay well at any rate specifically say Vancouver so we were shooting there for like 10 hours and and that place is so cool like I don't want to give away everything it's amazing it's great there but like oh do these there's one in Surrey oh wow okay I'm totally gonna go at some point yeah the guy was like super amazing they were really really open which was probably the coolest thing about it yeah like they you you there was one thing they really wouldn't show us well they they showed me actually they let me into the server room but they wouldn't let us film it yeah I'm not surprised and they were you know there was stuff that I wouldn't have even considered so the server room is technically like Warner Brothers property oh and yeah that makes sense yeah that makes a lot of sense and so they couldn't give me details like how fast their internet connection is they couldn't tell me what speed their internal networking is running at I just thought it was cool that they do that on site but they did tell me that their internal networking is way beyond 10 gig oh wow well you think about what they're like animators are working on like the size of some of the assets that they must be working with how responsive it needs to be they've got somewhere between 150 and 200 people according to glass door like yeah would have to be pretty banging an infrastructure man that would have been pretty cool I totally understand why and it was cool by the way yeah but we couldn't film it yeah but they did give us some cool stats so they told us they have about 800 terabytes of storage on site which man you should have seen you should have seen the guy sniffing when I said oh hey that's almost as much as we have because you know like how many hard drives you have is like yeah the the IDE serves guys like dick measuring contest the dick measuring contest at forum of like the who has more storage basically there's a well thread 100 terabyte club I think I think so yeah yeah so that is that is that's funny absolutely a thing like he I always uh did you get to do any stuff in the mocap room I didn't get to actually do mocap ok yeah but they were doing a shoot while we were there oh cool and their mocap room is freaking oh it's awesome it's super and two of the guys that like I don't want to give away everything from the yeah I will talk a little bit about the mocap room so it's got 39 cameras and these are high frame rate cameras although they said they usually record at 60fps actually this I didn't put in the video because there was there's so much other stuff I left so I had eight pages of notes that to get down to what would typically be a script for us which is usually about one in three-quarter pages yeah I had to I mean obviously I had to cut I had to cut cut cut cut cut so this is really cool so those cameras they have are fully capable of 120 FPS capture or even higher and what they but what they do is they capture at 60 because they were saying that actually you end up throwing out a lot of that data anyway when you're giving the mocap data to the animators because it's for video games and we're giving it to animators so if you need to create frames in between an action you just do that yeah that makes sense like these are just these are just data points that the arm follows along it has a model that's gonna just yeah run however many frames per second it runs that I want to talk more about it but maybe we'll wait till people have seen the video sure yeah there's a few more things I want to talk about but I want to like spoil spoil things that you very likely talked about I think that video is due out in about a week and a half so it shouldn't be that long as it is Samuel I think it'll be a simultaneous release on floatplane and YouTube so yeah so that was that was pretty cool that was kind of the highlight of my week and you mostly worked on flow playing stuff I guess this week yeah I hired one guy who's working mostly weekends maybe some nights he's hopefully gonna be working on the payment processing because it's super bad right now oh man so that's really awesome and there's another guy who's confirmed to join later next month full-time I'm not gonna be giving much more information about those guys because you know probationary periods and all that kind of stuff but yeah that's exciting because we need some help I said a lot of stuff to do another really cool update for floatplane and I'm not gonna give away who it is but because I don't know if this person have you talked to him since then I wasn't even gonna say this person's gender I didn't want to give any hints whatsoever but there is maybe I assumed maybe you assumed yeah anyway I mean I don't know what we can assume is that this person is human a human person you know and that's all drunk matters yeah so we do have someone who will be joining us as the very first third-party creator on floatplane we are gonna there are so many guests doing some pretty cool stuff to make it happen it hopefully won't seem janky yeah hopefully they seem janky like there's some they're like basically our CMS so I don't know if you guys are familiar with the term but it stands for content management system view and it refers to like the uploading tool that where you also create like your thumbnails and titles and and you do like what where you manage your captain yeah internally we call it merging because it's kind of because I come from retail and so it's not enough to just put a product on the shelf you have to merchandise it you have to put all the little cool speeds and feeds you have to set a price you have to arrange them nicely and that's the way that I see like a description and tags and thumbnails so yeah so that's where you like merge your video and that or okay so in the last week and a half well that's not seem that's not entirely how it's happened because it's been kind of bidding to hold on for a long time okay but what stage was it at a week and a half ago not close to ready and then one guy specifically on my team I'm not gonna call it your name because I don't know a handle for you that isn't actually your name so and I don't know if you're cool with that anyways but one guy specifically has been working on it like crazy what you guys used to know is cat boiler but is now AJ Jax net because he changed his name well it's good he changes boilers her highly inappropriate I'm shortening AJ Jax net - just a Jax I think I'm just gonna catch ax but he's been doing work on some the infrastructure stuff - I know the Australian guys have had a little bit of a server upgrade so hopefully that goes a little bit better in the future and there's some other stuff going on and he's prepping for the new human entity that will be joining floatplane as well so yeah it's been a group effort CPS 1980 is upset that I speak like a valley girl what and asked when I'm going to grow out of it you know I don't think it's how do you speak like a valley girl like you know like like you know like I sincerely doubt that I will ever grow out of it if you want the not like like this like then you're probably going to want the scripted line or - yes which is most of the most of the more professional written reviews but if you just want me talking like I talked then it's going to be full-on valley girl valley girl Linus from now until the end of time some set Vancouver is basically like valley girls no it's just basically like you know whatever like you know it's funny because I only occasionally notice it when other people do it because to me it's such a natural part of my manner of speaking that I just don't even notice it yeah I don't notice when someone doesn't do it I don't notice when someone does do it I just yeah yeah that's fair Wow Linus is begging for likes no get it yeah I like the joke get it I actually have nothing nothing to say should we get into topic yeah why don't you wait we haven't even rolled the intro no but we have to talk about the topic oh no no that I mean they're right here they're committed to watch a rise in mobile it's throwing in a oh no it's not it kind of sounded like you said eh it's I mean I mean the Kenna they do yeah yeah everybody food I mean they made battlefront to everybody hey we have a new sponsor yeah yeah what are you percent off that's that's max yeah and synergy yeah and we're back anyways topics we have rise in mobile announced that like not like mobile phones will get into you are determined to do the the highlight topics thing I'm not gonna let shuts down the revive network also GTX 10 78 TI so you're gonna go all ASMR to try to get them to pay more attention to you and whatever you're saying is there a say more of two people talking at the same time is that a thing you know what you know there's too much stuff if that thing exists there's a subreddit somewhere that's enjoy what if there's like a yeah let's let's just use the term subreddit for now I wonder if there's like a subreddit dedicated to just like people talking about news like not not like to ASMR one cup I think that is slash are slash to SM art with no I'm kidding I mean someone's gonna make it now right yeah it would shock me if by the end of when show today that sub her did not exist a sting when there's sometimes a top comment where it's like they link to a subreddit and people are like oh man I wish that existed and then people go and actually make it a thing because like someone someone wishes that it existed I can mod this I can be the mod for this subreddit let's go I can be the mod for like a two-person subreddit Thank You typically that probably doesn't need moderation so much speaking of websites that aren't made yet but should be no no no be kidding me Oh hold on hold on I wonder if I just no no it's fine I'll do that it looks like it's done well it's been has been two weeks since this cuz I was at twitchcon I don't know so yeah it's been two weeks since the Luc was wrong meme started and I have to say I'm a little disappointed in the Creator yeah yeah there's been an instant there there was a Squarespace page made and initially it was like oh wow this is actually pretty good especially considering the short amount of time that was given for it to be created and then there was a Twitter made the guy the guy or girl or whatever I don't know has been tweeting there's been a discord created there's been Instagram yeah created but nothing has been done with it really it's still the same there's even the liger it's still the same hold on there's wrong and then coming coming soon nothing's been done with it oh but I do have a site though is this font mod 24 Linus was wrong about Kyle yes it was just give it a shot just give it a little look oh look at that picture who knows get notified you can join what does that even mean I don't know to be completely honest is there anything else going on on this web page sure the joke was that wrong about Pokemon I think there's let's see Oh didn't know there was a Linus was wrong comm yeah yeah no so I don't know what you're wrong about because that neither of the websites have been like updated at all so there's no like information or video clips or anything you know what I'm probably wrong about they probably are just like you know what it is wrong to be so perfect in every way Wow Wow like it's wrong in the sense that it defies reality you know you go on like Metacritic and like pretend that you're a game and I think you're doing that on purpose now aren't you yeah all right so our first our first topic Wow we are haven't even started talking about news um heck yeah well if you don't talk about any news it can't be fake news Wow that's the fakest news of all time news that his and even news there's nothing new about it Rison mobile has been announced this was posted by Purina on the forum yeah the original article here is from my friend dr. cut hrus over at Anand Ted I have to say before we start I love these stats I love stats for AMD's new stuff because it's been so long since they've released something else and they compare themselves like a themselves yeah they're like it's 200% faster a hundred and twenty eight percent GPU performance and the funny thing about it is that like the AMD fanboys who have for all these years been sayin that AMD had competitive offerings are just like Olivia's to the fact that AMD themselves is acknowledging that they have a product that is now competitive that is anywhere between 40 to 400% their previous best yeah hold on a second you can't have it both ways yeah and to be clear Intel fanboys and NVIDIA fanboys are no less intolerable oh no it's just it's all the same it's just poor AMD fanboys have suffered in a way that the other two groups have not erina their grizzled though they've been through some stuff they have been through a level of denial that I think would kill any other living being yeah so you could think of them kind of like cockroaches like I don't remember what they're cold it's like a denial nuclear holocaust yeah you're just like no no you want me to die how about no no I'm not use yeah why because Rison but they didn't know it was gonna be called Verizon but they knew they were gonna rise again I it's so funny cause like even right in the name of the product it's like Andy is painfully aware of what's going on here yeah man oh okay sorry what was the news again oh right okay sell mobile Verizon seven twenty seven hundred you with Vega ten is a quad-core chip 2.2 base 3.7 gig turbo that is freaking awesome it would have been more impressive if Intel hadn't also launched there you series processors quite recently with quad core with with quad core designs but at 15 watts man Zen is looking like it scales down really nicely to these lower power envelopes that's cool man see what else they've got Zen plus Vega that's another thing too is Vega might not look particularly power efficient in the RX Vega 56 and rx Vega 64 but what you know if you talk to industry people off the record what they'll say is that well you know don't judge Vega based on the products that it's in Vega is very efficient if you actually scale down the voltage and a lot of what's like I know it's a double clocked basically yeah and pretty much every chip company for a while now has been going really hardcore in the whole bring the temperatures down make it more power efficient category yeah but it really matters for me is mobile stuff mobile laptops mobile phones and if they're gonna be really efficient with those types of things than awesome are you actually looking at me so funny okay hold on hold on hold on okay a non tech has those like ads from around the web ads now they're terrible and these are some of the worst I have ever seen Oh check out that good hold on doctor trick hold on hold on hold on thank you from the web Canada market failure thousands of iPhone 7s for only $5 okay so I'm gonna stop you right there that is a plus and that is not a phone at all ear plugs okay and this guy no I don't remember him I don't remember me I bet I can get IQ betta cannot gasp also this is one of those ones we're like when it's really small like it could look kind of like looks to people doing stuff does when it's up big you're just like there's no way a chiropractor is like yeah that's like not the simple trick that they want you to do look at this granny rich diet yeah nothing too ungrateful children she looks better shopping site where you only pay if you win I think that's every shopping site ever yeah you win when you buy the thing yeah and that's when you pay yeah you pay when you win you went the prize is the thing but yeah I think like maybe I'm missing something here anyway um that's really glamourizing shopping but yeah you win you win gave me a lot of stuff and I'm giving you hopefully in equivalence back in terms of a product or age shopping so anyway there's some pretty cool designs coming with Rhys in Mobile HP has an Envy x-360 coming with the 2500 you it's gonna have up to 512 gigas SD or one terabyte hard drive 15.6 inch display up to up to 8 gigs of ram what what is this product yeah really what why does it wait what who delivers a product that only goes up to 8 gigs of ram today and it's like slim and sexy it's an Envy it's like HP bought that brand like how many of you or even have been around long enough to remember voodoo PC I do okay like we had one they bought that brand and then just had they gave Riley I bunch of money for it and then he just completely disappeared off the face of the earth no they made him a VP for a bit and then like and then I think it has got rid of him because I don't but I feel like that they had something to do with legging I'm assuming I have no idea no rumors yeah nothing is it just pure sign making assumptions - I'm assuming that it was based off of a like a vesting something or other oh right there was probably like a guaranteed investing shares to some degree so he had to they wanted him to come on is like advisory for a little while yeah before he took off they just had no idea to what to do with that brand and now it's a laptop with eight gigs of RAM the idea of had seven 20s actually this is a weird one - up to arisin seven 2700 year on single channel memory which we already know is it doesn't say how much not that optimal for risin up to a one terabyte SSD so it's a purely solid-state option maybe a Sarah's gonna get gigs gigs up to 256 gig SSD this is a Super Value product I mean maybe I'm missing something here but why are we okay this Acer one wants to take advantage of larger turbo modes memory will be dual channel with even even Ian although the system will only support a gig yeah what's going on so it looks on paper like rise and mobile should be pretty competitive I mean at those base and boost clocks this thing should perform pretty well but you can usually from how configured looked before benchmarking something you know how good something is going to be because you got to understand like partners like an HP or a Dell or you know like a game studio when you're talking about something like a development kit for a console like they've got access to the hardware or some approximate appropriate agency the quite some time yes I did so usually you can tell how good they think something is by the kinds of designs they're planning to integrate it into so this doesn't give me a lot of confidence for rising mobile but hey I'd love to be wrong there's some good AMD news maybe we'll do that as our as our next topic here before the news yeah before we do our sponsor spot said it's an ultrabook most won't need sixteen gig also it uses more power so what the razor blade stealth has shipped with 16 gigs of ram for two generations now marginally more power yeah and i think a surprising amount of people actually do use that memory a lot of people are trying to watch I didn't see the resolution of the screens but a lot of people are trying to watch like fairly high res Netflix content which is good memory foam you won't be running 4k so there's that because right now that's limited to Intel processors as far as I know yeah yeah but yeah lots of YouTube tabs in Chrome and Netflix tab in chrome and Facebook and the reddit is gonna really slam your memory propeller this is while streaming like I'm not actually even doing anything right now and I've already got six while streaming off a different PC yeah off a different so this computer actually just has like actually like nothing going on well okay to be fair to you so you have quite a few things up here like the TeamViewer thing is not connected it's not doing anything yeah one of those things is notepad one of those things is paint paint one of those things is share share X which is not doing anything that's also just telling me there's an update but you don't because it already does everything the Skyport is not connected no it's just kind of sitting there yeah it's not no it's not signed in even it's not even don't even sign it cuz I don't have a sign in one of those is FileZilla don't open that one but like that's not connect abs aren't doing any asset II okay I do like care of it open he has a lot open but none of them are doing it yeah and I so I can easily like make myself suffer with the Graham all my oh I'm so excited about the new Graham but that's the issue is these designs are competing with the new Graham so my new ground is coming I think sometime in the next couple weeks and it's got a quad-core Intel processor 8 gen and it's got gigs of RAM that's standard now so when you were competing with last gen designs like this one that was fine that was very last interview when you have to compete with new ones then it becomes a bit of a problem so I'm not really not sure what they're trying to do here in other news AMD is finally making money what so this was originally this is way cooler than it seems I know I was like a consumer you might be like hey I don't really care man but like no but it matters that's really important it matters a lot this is supposed to by Doc swag on the forum the original article here is actually from AMD zone site and check this biz out what on one point six four billion dollars revenue so you compare this to last quarter that is a really hefty outflow uplift that looks like about 25 percent uplift over last quarter and a little less than that over the same quarter the previous year operating income though is a hundred and twenty six million dollars gross profit with a net income so that's excuse me after expenses of 71 million dollars now to be clear this is still seven cents per share so it's not like you know all of a sudden AMD is gonna be you know throwing hookers and blow parties at their headquarters or whatever but hey this is a really really good thing for the PC industry in general so they really write that they beat expectations Oh what's up the just like negative is just brackets they don't want to put the negative symbol no that's normal brackets yeah oh yeah that's an it's an accounting thing I don't I don't know why that's odd but sure but yeah so operating income was 126 million compared to an almost 300 million loss a year ago and net income was 71 million compared to a net loss of 406 million a year ago it's amazing they survived as long as they didn't really use they had to sell everything sold their fabs you know they sold their HQ right yeah yeah like they don't actually own their headquarter building anymore they had to like like monopoly style man yeah they had to mortgage boardwalk and then somehow climb back yeah is like really hard to do in monopoly yeah it's like and in real life yeah so average sale prices for GPUs went up significantly yeah I don't know that cryptocurrency really would have helped AMD sell the GPUs for much higher so I'm not really sure where that comes from but but it Bega has a higher ASP than their previous flagship Polaris and well they're not getting the cut from the average sale price of GPUs going up but it does mean that stores are like please give us more yeah what is a good position to be in so high volumes has more and this quarter was especially strong in enterprise embedded and semi-custom so that would be stuff like oh I don't know maybe the upcoming Xbox one X yeah very cool and this is weird like I actually this our last point in the notes here was one that I went and I looked up for myself without actually knowing that it was already in the notes but AMD's they beat their earnings guidance and then their stock did that's different yeah like why you mad that earning money I have no idea yeah I mean while like you know Bitcoin has gone up by heck yeah whatever yeah you you have some Bitcoin I have some Bitcoin yeah yeah yeah I I expected like I don't know there's there's the one side of things where it's like Bitcoin is like the the Internet video to TV and like blah blah blah like this is this is gonna like completely rule the world like all this like super hardcore crowd and then there's people that are like uh no yeah so like until I can buy a grand-slam breakfast at Denny's with Bitcoin once it gets to that point that will be insane yeah and then it's like because it has staying power in very weird raise right now but also have some big issues like that fork it's a potentially like it's intense it's a scary thing cuz it's a hobbyist thing right now like normal people can't be running around dealing with oh like you know oh you know my currency my currency is uh you know it's this this is gonna this is gonna like fork and then instead of $50 I'm gonna have $25 and $25 you know one thing one thing that's and then and then one of them might go up and one of them might go down so I have to like make I have to be following the news I have to make a bet on which one I think is gonna be the one that goes up but then there's also also huge benefits that are happening for it we're like smartphones now carrying your standard credit card and being able to tap to pay yes is it naturally extremely easy and already happening for Bitcoin right so like the the normal financial institutions going like hey we want to modernize and do this thing already works for Bitcoin so it's not weird for consumers to switch to that so like there's I don't know it's a very weird space it's really fun to follow that's why I have some and I don't have some Bitcoin as in like a few whole Bitcoin I have like some NOK one yeah well now that they're worth like almost six thousand US dollars who knows that could be a lot of money yeah I just yeah like I don't have a huge amount in it I just have a little bit I'm I mostly like playing with I'm doing it for fun right yeah I'm mostly doing it for fun I've made money which is great but whatnot but you also have to like you have to think of it right now as gambling pretty much that's pretty much what it is I basically see it as spending money on a really expensive hobby yeah yeah and if you do it for look I don't personally gamble at all yeah I don't need I have never put a quarter in a slot machine I have never walked up to a buff Jack to put two quarters in his Lobby okay cuz they were American quarters I didn't know what to do with them so I don't gamble hide it illegally cut underage that doesn't mean that you can't gamble responsibly you know you if it's fun for you to get the rush of playing the game and you go look the experience of being in the casino and having people around who are also gamblers whatever that works here yeah that Gamble's in a very healthy manner yeah and is that has a $500 value to me and if I lose it all then I got my $500 worth and if I win something then I'll celebrate and I'll go buy a nice dinner you can gamble responsibly and as long as you approach Bitcoin in that manner I think that you could not totally screw yourself so here's my $500 and I'm gonna make a hobby out of following the news and now I've got some skin in the game so it's kind of like it's kind of like betting with your friends on a sports game yeah and like one thing that you can do is like oh you see it do something trendy and you're like okay I can cash out here for a certain amount I'm excited that it's gonna go up or it's it's gonna maybe go down for a second and I'll buy and then I'll buy a little bit more with the money that I cashed out with and then it'll go back up so now I just like increased my own investment off my own investment so you can do fun things like that so you're not even putting more money in it just takes a little bit more work and there's like transaction cost you have to factor that it like it's it's just kind of a fun thing to follow and pay attention to Jake got really into it I was hanging out with Jake I'm like Kay well if we're gonna talk about this all time anyways I might as well just and then it's been fun I actually have been I've been enjoying it it's cool speaking of enjoying things I enjoy telling you guys about freshmen so fresh books is the way to manage the real job that you do and the sort of for now real money that you make fresh books is the small business accounting software for freelancers and small business owners it's built for the way you work and it is simple so you don't have to have a degree from the university of smart-arse to quote one of my favorite online creators of all time to just manage your freaking finances for your business you can actually just do your plumbing job or your general contracting or teach Gant's lessons out of your garage and get home at the end of the day and not be like fighting with complicated software it lets you create and send professional-looking invoices in less than 30 seconds set up online payments in just a couple of clicks and get paid up to four days faster and even see when your client has seen your invoice to put an end to the guessing games the FreshBooks platform works on the PC on a Mac on mobile you've got the full capabilities of the platform on your Android or iOS device and you can try it out for free over at FreshBooks comm slash when I know I had different talking points in their home slash win and you can claim your free trial they're just put Linus tech tips in the how did you hear about us section next up we've got synergy so do you have the supremely first world problem of having too many computers Oh No and too many keyboards and mice plugged into them oh wow I mean it's legitimately a problem like a lot of people have very good reasons for having multiple computers yeah maybe you prefer to do your development in a Linux environment or an OS 10 environment but you want a game on your Windows computer well synergy lets you use just one keyboard or mouse across all those devices it is cross-platform you just drag your mouse on to the other screen you just set it all up within the software they've got just like this grid you set up where all your screens are and you can even do more than just switch which one you're using you can drag and drop files between the computers you can share the clipboard between the computers you can set up hotkeys and much more the basic option does not include encryption while the pro one includes encryption for the data being passed between the computers so you can use our link in the video description to save 50% on synergy and sorry go ahead someone said dual boot bro Wow the point is that you can use both of them at the same time beyond if you want to check out a retro video look up what would it be called Luke's mineral oil PC yeah I'm pretty sure is that I don't know where's Club Oh a slick soil cooled PC yeah drop it in the chat if you check that out I have two keyboards - mice - monitors - pcs because if everything split up and if I had realized this was a thing back then that would have been really helpful yeah and I mean another perfect example is if you have something like a render box yeah render box like my main one that I tell people is if you have a laptop that used for work yeah you can take it home dock it when you get home and then go back and forth 13-3 because you could drag and drop files across them everything it's wonderful and the docking process is as simple as putting it down next to your computer yeah and maybe plugging in power if you don't want it - yeah but that has nothing that synergy nothing to do with the keyboard and mouse yeah so pretty cool I'm bringing us - whoa we've got a new sponsor madrenas coffee whoa look at all this there's a lot wow these guys must have sent over like so friggin much of it and there's like more in the fridge well know that and I've seen people drinking it all week how much did

madrenas coffees doctors are from the gaming world we've actually got shlomo from their team in the twitch chat right now oh hi okay so that that first sentence was not a very good sentence but that's okay I'm sure you guys are a lot better at coffee than you are at sentences in fact I know that for a fact yeah their coffees sourced from high-altitude growing zones in Colombia they sell iced coffee and cold Brews in these four hundred and forty milk Anne's or you can get their micro roast whole bean coffee as well they're made from a blend of their specialty coffee low fat hormone free milk and real cane sugar the iced coffee comes in caramel mocha vanilla cappuccino 2x dark roast in fact I think those are the ones that I have in front of me and the cold brew coffees have no milk they ship

save a massive 40% that's actually pretty much sick discount that is and but wait there's more they really put but wait there's more in the talking points you know what slow mo you guys are all right they're running a giveaway for their iced coffee cold brews and my curls coffee which you can enter through the link below so that's madrina Scott madrenas coffee calm / - use offer code Linus for that 40% discount by the way that's fantastic awesome but wait there's more not only is it 40% off but you get this awesome giveaway opportunity yes speaking of things that are awesome this is supposed to by Fucci on the forum EA has shut down the revive network that's actually not awesome at all no no actually this is kind of trash oh so you know how the gaming community went through this whole thing we're dedicated servers started disappearing you know dedicated server software that came with the game that you could run and set up your own private server that other people could join those started disappearing in favor of the publisher actually running their own servers that everybody would connect to and the argument for this was that oh we are simplifying the process and we are increasing the general quality of service for gamers and we are creating a more consistent experience with consistent rules and map rotations and blah blah blah blah blah blah blah whatever the matchmaking is it's a big argument that's being made for it um but the problem that a lot of the advocates for private servers brought up was that well hold on a second like realistically you know EA is not gonna want to run you know okay what would be an example of ok so let's say battlefield 2 EA it's not gonna run a wanton want to run battlefield 2 servers when there's like you know maybe a few hundred people left playing the game you know so this is a thing that you're gonna pay for you're gonna buy this game and then at some point in the future like an MMO it's just gonna expire because it's not worthwhile for EA to keep running this stuff and keep maintaining it and you're just not gonna be able to play multiplayer anymore so specifically they're looking at battlefield 2 battlefield 1:42 in battlefield heroes I really liked battlefield 2 so really one of the big problems was that games by used to run some of these multiplayer experiences and when gamespy disappeared in 2014 revive the revive Network sort of rose from the ashes as an unlicensed and unauthorized way of making these games playable online free of charge so EA had originally planned to make the older games playable at the time but reverse the decision as a result of significant technical hurdles which basically I think made the revive guys think that they were pretty much good to go but they just posted the following statement we will get right to the point Electronic Arts his legal team has contacted us and nicely asked us to stop distributing and using their intellectual property as diehard fans of the franchise we will respect these stipulations and they've been doing this for three and a half years now so they've invested not an insignificant amount of their time and effort into making these gaming experiences still available you know I wonder if FA forever is still around so that's another perfect example of of a community-driven project to to bring multiplayer back to a game that had been abandoned it looks like these guys are still up so this is for supreme commander Forge for a while this is a little funky because grants of FA forever is actually very good by the way I'd played it for a little bit I've been trying to figure out this pretty much the whole time it says we must ask that you stop throwing down ammo crates this is apparently a quote seems a little informal but it's apparently a quote we must ask that you stop throwing down ammo crates and other more legal stylized terms please stop distributing copies of our game clients and using our trademarks logos and artwork on your sites it actually has nothing to do with running the forums and this has pointed out somewhere else in a comment which made me realize that I'm not the only person that noticed this revive doesn't seem to be reacting that way so I'm wondering if there was more in the statement from EA because it's a very short statement yeah so maybe we didn't get the whole thing but basically all they're saying is make it so you can download our clients I'm sure people can find another way around yeah and don't use our artwork and logos but like I'm sure you can find ways around that although it might be a little bit of an issue where's the where's the thing just trademark that might be a bit of an issue because saying battlefield 2 on the site might be a problem yeah well yeah it is a bigger statement overall yeah it's not that much bigger than actually yeah there's not much else more here yeah yeah so honestly this is one of those like crappy legal things where at the end of the day totally get why they have to do this okay that hold on a second kid altra 13 I should just ban you from the chat let the old online games die and buy new ones what's wrong with that I'm now hopefully you're just trolling I hope you're just trolling but yeah I don't know no it's probably it's probably fine no one could be that stupid so it should be okay okay yeah we'll just leave it probably trolling and I can respect trolling more than I can run back to thinking that yeah they're our sponsor today yeah why are you just drinking on camera how much did they send I've seen everybody drinking this stuff drinking what a nice refreshing madrenas you're off-camera yeah you're too tall now you're behind the mic everyone gets it it's okay oh that was awesome anyway so that sucks a lot yeah I like I totally get why it's happening and they're like actually right today but they're only right today because they were wrong years ago and they wasted a lot of vibe yeah they didn't provide server software for people to set up their own private server and instead of doing it this way they could have found some legal way to sanction these kind of things yeah well what they would have to do is they would have to release the server software but yeah because it contains all this matchmaking crap and all of this other stuff that a traditional game server wouldn't have it probably contains a lot of IP that they are actually still using today and proprietary thanks fair so they actually like can't do anything now they have to protect the trademark otherwise they risk not being able to defend it in the future and they can't release the server code so what like there's got to be another way to do again they don't specify that they can't run the servers right they don't want the trademark being used in what the logos being used they don't want them to distribute copies of the game you can stop distributing copies of the game distributing okay disk you know distributing copies of our game clients yeah so they can stop doing that okay now Apple can find a way to get a copy of the game so let's let if they're going as far as finding this site I'm sure they'll find a way to download a like non cracked version of battlefield - I still have a battlefield 2 key somewhere yeah never actually played that I'm sure there are websites on the internet where you can find the like ISO file for an uncracked battlefield - in other news the nvidia gtx 1070 TI looks to be taking the fight Thank You Ars Technica - RX Vega 56 at 450 bucks specs of this thing actually look pretty good 24 32 CUDA cores 8 gigs of gddr5 so it's the cheaper gddr5 not due to the five X 256 gigabytes a second memory bandwidth okay cool and it is yes overclockable so you will see custom designs coming from partners like a soos so yeah the the rumor and the sigh I'm happy we very clearly pointed out as being a rumor of this being not overclockable was not true yeah yeah that was made very clear in the press release yeah there's some funky stuff going on though from source Ryan show Ryan Ryan shroud sigh here's our source it told us stood by for pc perspective sorry man yeah Ryan shroud there's some funky stuff going on apparently partners are not allowed to bin their GPUs but off the record some board partners assure that they will be banning GPUs so that's gonna be interesting the other rumor is that partner cards will not be overclocked out-of-the-box yeah so we'll be up to the end-user to overclock it so what this looks like to me is Nvidia making if all this is true is Nvidia making an effort to avoid cannibalizing 1080 I guess because this this card spans being able to overclock above it like like this thing's got 500 more cuda cores than the GTX 770 this is a much much fatter GPU the drastic leader it's thick you know thick that's what the kids say right thi see see ya I'm do you do they spell it or is it just implied thick know they say thick but if you're typing it out like through a text message or something is thic see okay why I don't know too old okay so this was supposed to be hawk on the forum the original article is from tweet town intel has announced their next-gen op teen SSD the 900p and i'm gonna pee myself because this thing is the biggest deal to happen to SSDs since like the X 25m potentially I haven't actually tested it myself I haven't actually used one but right now the you to form factor so this guy right here is available at 280 gigs you and the add-in card yeah Intel has not abandoned it apparently no one else is supporting it but Intel's like yep nope we're doing this because I guess it lets them reuse their server designs and the ports aren't going away on high-end boards there's a there and it it pulls it off the board yeah MDOT two in a PCIe there's fixed on the board being able to have way more stuff pulling off the board is also good and this adding card is available at 280 and 480 gig capacity points it looks good boy it looks pretty good like it doesn't have the really sick skull well yeah I've always been into that the digitized skull was super cool the skull trails call but like it looks sharp I like the I like the black but like hopefully the back of it isn't all like scratched up like that one SSD yeah oh my god nothing looks so good you know how much debate there would be at a company as corporate as Intel about using something like this on their branding because like you got to remember to like North American culture yeah skulls and flames cool whereas like I'm pretty sure that in at least some parts of Asia it's this is like putting a big bad omen on your product and it's like basically like looks so cool though and it's weird because I don't even generally like skulls like remember remember when we were not not I wouldn't say growing up but like teens there was all the like people had there was a clothing with skulls on it was like totally in fashion you know what I think I was a little older than you probably yeah but not by the time I was like you know late teens early we had bomb equipment and no fear yeah no I had that too but remember no fear that's still around I don't think so i I there's a picture of me wearing a no fear like mesh shirt yeah terrible it's you remember those but like slightly see-through and there's only slightly seat there for like here up cuz legs were awful don't show the nipple but gotta have that see-through it was awesome man oh man Oh way no fears still around sort of actually I don't know if that's a stylized the same I miss my so I used to have a no fear hat it was black and it had the eyes on the snappa no I don't have my know if your hat anymore I loved my know if your hat when didn't have the eyes here and then it was no fear on the back when did you stop having them oh no I have my stupid gecko hat that's probably the one you're thinking no no I know that hat when did you stop having that before I met you oh yeah a long time ago well I've seen a picture isn't he yeah there's not much no fear no fear was huge but at one point I'm like probably I'm gonna guess I was in like grade 10 skulls were like totally a thing right just like black fabric with white skulls on it was still a thing and I was always like that's so stupid it looks you're not edgy it looks dumb I don't know what you're doing you're not edgy like it way just wasn't alternate burn you know what you're not you're trying which automatically means your base it doesn't work yeah but like that looks at the skull trail skull though has always looked sick because they found like a classy way to put a skull on something which I don't know I thought it was really cool all right last topic for today we got to talk about this poster by blue chinchilla eating Doritos on the forum original article here is actually from the Vancouver Sun Amazon wants to let the delivery person unlock your front door and go inside your home to the service is called how can you call this a service it's called Amazon key and incorporates a smart lock give Amazon a key to your house because wolf knows what what people are gonna do man people are absolutely gonna do it cuz like honestly this is one of those things where you're basically just you're trying to get Amazon drivers to get to get narrow do all applicants to become Amazon delivery drivers and like if they were anywhere near I like I'm afraid to be giving them ideas because by and large as far as I can tell most thieves aren't that brilliant but like if they have a brain on their shoulders at all then what they would do is they would find the squeaky cleanest one who is the driver and he just cases what yep I've heard it before too people are absolutely gonna do this someone internally is apparently planning to sign up for this yeah and exactly what you're saying the drivers gonna case the house yeah but if there's anything valuable in there yeah I figure out where the security cameras are what type of alarm system they're using what their camera setup is everything and then leave and then someone else and then create a list because they're gonna be going around to like many many houses every day so they would just get back in their car pull up a little Google sheet on their phone be like a or B or C the date they were there like the last date anyone from Amazon was there to make it a little bit harder to put two and two together and then like six months down the road you're gonna get hit and they'll know exactly what you have and exactly where it is so they'll be in out gone and have all your most valuable things get freaking out this is like actually the stupidest thing of all looks great too you know it's gonna happen because oh hold that thought yeah because there's another big problem too they don't even need to see where your stuff is it doesn't matter they know what you have they know what they don't even need to know that they just need to know what kind of stuff you have yeah because if you're the kind of person who just like because they're not gonna be able to just like wander around in your house cuz I'm sure the smart lock if they have again if they have a brain on their shoulders well a camera turns on when they end yes exactly okay cool so I hadn't actually read that far into it but I would certainly hope that there's a cat yeah they see you on they're not wandering around in your house then you have recordings of every time they visit but if they stand in the front hallway and they see you know nothing but like a you know dirty old dog bed and like some you know soiled newspapers and you literally ordered like a case of Kraft Dinner then you're you're a see you know or you're a D not worth hitting but if you're ordering like ball or stuff from Amazon and you got like a nice home you got to be stupid if you think that you're not getting hit you know what I'm really excited for yeah Amazon key enabled apartment buildings okay I may be inconvenient for apartment wouldn't a well when they build the structure yeah they setup key enabled doors and key enabled cameras for every single suite I would be less concerned in an apartment far less yeah so that I'm actually a lot more okaylet I would be less concerned to know I'm not entirely off the hook but I'll be less concerned yeah because especially if your apartment has modern features like needing a fob in order to access a given floor as long as you've got a camera on the person that's there the whole time that they're there then yeah it's far less of an issue and I was kind of thinking it would be cool if you had a double door refrigerator so he came up to like the side of your house and then put groceries in the back of your refrigerator yeah so I can see there being stuff that it that this kind of idea would be cool for I have no interest in randoms coming into my home though yeah someone in chat Amazon shed sure yeah yeah so I'd be super don't I put one of these smart locks on like you know a dumpster in my you know driveway yeah okay fine so there are ways that the tech can be used but the idea of just letting someone go into my house and so there are positive security things about not leaving a package outside but I don't think that they were overcoming that by having someone go into your house yeah so that's that's where I'm at so there are brands already signed on to enter dwellings via Amazon key including Merry Maids and the animal caregiver Rover comm man you know I just this you know this feels like this feels like to me like I'm getting left behind the same way I did when online dating became a thing cuz to me I was like oh Jeff Bezos became the richest man in the world today as their stock price surged 13% to a record high and he owns 81 million shares so he's not worth 90 billion dollars there you go so I feel like I'm being left behind in kind of the same way that I was when online-dating became a thing because to me like I haven't dated since online dating didn't have a stigma right around it yeah like back when I was in high school media doesn't any no yeah it's no big no big deal which is like weird Late Show hosts are talking about like you know swiping left and swiping right like it's super cash now and like celebrities are legitimately on it yeah um but when I was in high school it was like oh my god if a met online you know to go 100 percent valley girl for you guys yeah and it was good you did good for me I'm looking at this is kind of the same thing like I'm instead of but instead of meeting someone random at a at a you know away from my home and my stuff and like my privacy location I am like I'd like a restaurant or something I am bringing randoms into my house now when I hire a babysitter your gardening service or whatever I were usually Yvonne yeah that's fair interviews them yeah in the same way that if you think about it you would traditionally meet a dating partner by an interview process like an in person of sorts yeah handshake no but but you get what I mean it is though to a certain degree yeah but we're moving away from that to like sort of you know finding your finding your maid or your or your dating partner by you know flipping through the available options and kind of going oh that one's got good reviews on you know made swipe made swipe calm already I'm sure it's probably a thing Oh interesting when I was a cop you can't be available because you know that's just gonna turn into a fetish site like immediately it's available what made swipe dot-com it's only 15 bucks Canadian dollars no way wholly made swipe com whoever buys that don't just buy it and sit on it buy it and make a killing because that is it Amit Lee you get a business like that going you get signed up with Amazon key there is a model here and you actually just clone the tinder interface you could make like an uber like service for maids yep using made swiping you could swipe through and they could have different rates and different specialties they could be like nearby or not nearby they come they clean up different services that they offer like maybe this one will do your laundry that domain will like straight up not be there for very long that's not a bad idea hazy hit it up you need to hire development team to start developing all the ideas that I've told you like up swipe it's also maids wipe I mean some of them might offer that service I don't know yeah yeah anyway so thank you for watching the wine show and we will see you guys again next week bye mean bat time same bat Channel white - the valley girl apparently exists oh no no not no one has actually put a website on it yet it's available though oh no it's not know someone has registered him perfect that's what we need Oh
