nice it's the window Ryan so everyone who's playing banjo bingo out there space you're welcome we didn't give it home last week yeah I know we were on time last weekend I got the least amount of like success screenshots sent to my Twitter last week any other week because I think people are used to getting that free spot terrible um so yeah we've had a really interesting week can we do floatplane news can we tell people what's gonna happen next week I want it to just happen it's actually I forgot to ask you in our little meeting I wanted to ask you how we were gonna deal with it in terms of communication so is this how you want it I want two people to know you want a pre now I want to tell the people tell the people but what if it doesn't work then they're gonna know that we told them what our plan was and that our plan ultimately fell through which will be a huge surprise to only a very small percentage of them okay that's very well we plan on launching the what is going on here I don't know I just no one's supposed to touch this set between Friday you did I didn't replace some monitor I spent a while be like what is wrong with the Saturday I didn't replace the monitor okay I just took the monitor I did not actually put a new one there literally no actually that was actually not true right but what you corrected me with was worse anyways next week sometime on Wednesday let's say definitely by Thursday although time zones so who knows but sometime on Wednesday for sure so if you check too early it might not be there but whatever sometimes do it I just liked watching you freak out uh we're launching the Alpha of the floatplane website meaning you'll be able to sign up for an account directly through that website you'll be able to pay for it with credit card that's new you won't be able to pay for it with PayPal which is hilarious if you want you to PayPal you have to go back it do the four that will be fixed brain trees being really good people in case anyone from Braintree is watching we need to stay on their good side yeah um so right now just credit card and you'll be able to watch videos there you'll be able to comment won't be able to reply to people a little get rekt that'll come but yeah this will be the first time that you'll be able to do everything on the new website you won't need form integration you can just go there pay for a subscription watch there all that kind of stuff so to everyone out there who said that floatplane was never gonna launch because Luke's an ID MN and also it's a bad idea so that you know compounded the issue in their minds and also that the way that we recruited developers was really dumb making a video and then publishing it on a tech channel super dumb so in response to everyone who ever said anything about that I got this for you and demonetised this is why we need floatplane yeah uh oh let's roll the intro yeah we should replace my part instead of like clenching in the thing that should be like flying and then like something goes wrong and then I'm able to land on the water you know yeah floatplane the site where middle fingers are totally allowed yeah it's completely because they're totally okay then yeah nobody nobody's gonna mind all right so technically yeah oh oh oh okay so this is interesting do we want to jump right into the Intel discrete GPU we can or considering we're talking about flow plating right now we can just talk about what's on full plane right now it's up to you oh we need that later up to you sir I wasn't listening because I was checking my notes I have I have some notes from dr. Contras my favorite writer over at a non tech yeah about this topic so I'm just gonna jump into it I didn't hear what you said and I'm sorry it's cool hosted by 2004 thanks um are you gonna do quit done the original article hears from tech power up intel unveils discrete GPU prototype development yeah so it wasn't that long ago that AMD made a high profile hire Roger koduri AMD's former head of Radeon technologies group but clearly so there's a there's a bunch of stuff here so there's like there's like this got like a block diagram which is really interesting there's what looks like sort of a mock-up of what a die shop might look like like there's a bunch of what looks like very internal information and a lot of people are extrapolating a bunch of information about the suppose it 14 nanometer dedicated GPU and so dr. cutter is actually proactively because ian do you really not you know believe in our fact-checking makes point where we would you know dig through all these diagrams and figure out the misinterpretation that other sites you know might have accidentally made here do you really not believe that we're capable of that I appreciate it because you know thank you for covering our butts because we were not capable of that he proactively reached out because he was sure that we were going to talk about this and I'm just gonna read it I'm not gonna read it because he put it better than I could have it's almost like he's a professional writer or something just wanted to poke about the Intel discrete GPU hullaballoo that's been going around this week that might end up in Rancho Everywhere is quoting it as a discrete GPU prototype but that is because of a slight miss reading of the Japanese article source okay leave it to dr. coutras to figure to pick out the slight miss reading of the Japanese article while it uses Intel graphics the chip is actually a test design for a better dynamic voltage frequency system implementation applicable to a wide range of chips view GPU and FPGA it was done in a GPU core because it was an easy design on 14 nanometer to start with the Japanese article from which the translation comes when Auto translated does state that it's a discrete GPU prototype but the author of who's very very well respected and knowledgeable go to San clarifies this point in the second paragraph by seeing it was only a vehicle for was actually being announced and tested and the fact that it was built on the GPU was inconsequential okay so basically no in the well I don't know has it been two months since Roger got higher didn't tell no in the last however many weeks it's been he has not built a GPU yeah necessarily yeah you might have I don't know he's kind of amazing but um he has not and this is like some power and clock management stuff that might end up in that GPU but might not but probably would but might not it sounds like Raja and whatever team he has is probably just playing so so yeah there you go this is yeah like it like it says test vehicle not a future product it sounds like they're just playing around so let's go through our notes with all of that in mind let's go through the notes that we had based on other tech press is reporting the first 14 nanometer dedicated GPU prototype is a two chip solution the first contains the GPU itself in the system agent the second is an FPGA that interfaces with the system bus it's 1.5 billion transistors so in videos GP 102 is built on 16 nanometer and has 12 billion but but keep in mind none of this really matters yes because yeah and following media speculation about the slides until I stated that they presented a research paper exploring new circuit techniques optimized for power management and actually you know what kudos to James he had it right he had all the clarifications in here it is a test vehicle only not a future product us much ado hold involved you guys can see James's notes credit to James good job James good job James good job James you'll you'll you know whether you like it or not you'll have to work here another day because you're not allowed to leave actually wait no no James I have not added James to my soul collection yet that's that's my internal joke as soon as people buy a house and get a mortgage then I kind of cackle and I go like see Brenda Brendan's listening yeah that's right Brandon you know what's up you guys know what I don't own yet there's many reasons why but yeah but I would like to to be correct yeah yeah so ha ha ha Brandon says he hates me and just make in case the microphone didn't pick it up we're just getting that out that gives you my soul if I wasn't an American have you been to Brandon's place yet yes super nice it is actually releasing hey did you notice the amount of like random little storage Abbi things I think have unique it's probably less than it feels like it probably feel like a lot to you cuz I know your place has like none closet yeah don't don't give me that none it has a closet it has a closet it has a closet that also has the central vac and oh no that doesn't care you can't put anything in there I'm talking about under the stairs yeah I'm talking about under the stairs is that where the central vac is oh yeah yeah there's technically closet door yeah so yeah so compared to Luke's place yeah but I think Brandon's gonna run out of storage but what I like about it is that Brandon how much can I talk about your place okay cool um so unlike other town houses what's really cool about it is it's a little bit wider so it doesn't feel yeah as much like living on a ship or like yeah like in a sliver yeah yeah yeah like it feels more like like like the rooms feel more square instead of like every room had to be kind of like like put in front of the other room and like kind of made it like a me a row of them and and it even has it has side by side parking yep which is sick for a town house it was it was weird when I went in it when I went to go park there that if you want to park in the driveway you don't fit but then there is also side by side parking and like a really nice garage and he's right next to the visitor parking which is super cool it's literally right there sense and there's more coming in apparently there's like six more visitor spots coming in soon so yeah it's it's it's pretty nice it's it's pretty dope there's I like it a lot there's at least three different places that you could put a BBQ and you'd be out there barbecuing and you'd feel pretty good about it so you know that's an important thing that that is an important metric is it not someone randomly posted in here lioness fact of the day Linus was born in western Pennsylvania before moving to Canada at the age of five sure let's go with that um nice so so I don't remember where I was going with this but Brandon's house is sweet and I got to see it did we get there I don't know and that's the beauty of this show the bane of this show oh no you're talking about James and capturing his soul oh yeah I haven't captured his soul yet yeah but I have captured quite a few souls now I'm feeling pretty good about it it's like you you guys you guys can't leave me think about it like a mortgage it is it's like it's like basically getting married it's it's like I think it's like potentially more hard yeah I think it's actually more difficult to get out of than a marriage if you isn't that crazy now if we think about sort of the traditional values of of marriage even that applicable anymore which well no no I just mean but no look if we go back to back to the whole till death do us part let's focus on that part like if we call that sort of the the tradition of of marriage wow it's really eroded a lot oh yeah point where like 50% fail or something I I don't I don't know what it is but like we take a mortgage a car lease like I think it's it's pretty hard to break a car lease isn't it like you can't just be like yeah you know um Northshore Auto Group and I have irreconcilable differences about 40 to 50 percent of married couples in the United States divorce to be fair that what is also in that percentage is people that have been divorced more than once right so it's not like yeah it's not so it could be one person who's done it four times right they all four of those goes in but it is technically four different like so like I was looking at some gun ownership statistics in the United States I think they have more than one gun per person but I forget what they call the mega owners yeah super owners yeah they have like a hundred yes and it's like some very small percentage or something like that so like mega divorces yeah my I don't think I'm gonna have more than a hundred but like yeah more than a hundred divorces would be that would be in a cult Guinness would get that would legitimately be difficult to pull off could you do it could you do it with unwitting women oh god you convinced the worst reality TV show yeah actually the worst one such a plague on society that would be really difficult to be able to cobble watching so if you and I went okay we go we go into it's gonna be near to 200 we go to a new city every year okay and the idea is to get married and divorced as many times as possible in that year and they're gonna have to pull but remember you you so there's nothing would prevent you if you're a devious enough bastard nothing would prevent you from rolling multiple multiple marriages at once yeah well I don't think you can legally be married to two people at the same time No so so you would have to like timegate you would have to manage it really carefully well cuz you you'd had a minimum you have to do two a year oh yeah oh yeah because the timespan that you'd actually be effectively able to do this yeah yeah at minimum at minimum lion-like theoretically you're gonna have to pull more than that yeah I'd watch this show I would I'd feel like a terrible Purcell anybody i watch no exactly yeah yeah I'm saying it now because it doesn't exist but like playboy wars that's a suggestion from my AV guy oh man Wow and you should have okay you can have two different shows going on at the same time because you should have the marriage wars of the guys trying to do it and you should have the girls trying to do it yeah guys versus girls you know what we'd be at such a disadvantage I think so I I have but who knows like maybe not because it might be harder to convince a guy to marry you oh and then there's like the bisexual in a gay aspect right right oh man we're like you might be able to spend more because of how that community works and like whatever else okay so just it's like not that it matters but both Luke and I are straight yeah um answer me this if it meant that in a spirit of winning the condition you know maybe how can positive ask oh it it depends on see if we could I know you do almost anything almost anything yeah especially if it's against you looks like any well no but if you knew that I was higher numbers and you were like right beside me if we're at like 90 and we're both at like 90 if I've gone this whole competition and it just needs that much more to win like I'd consider it alright so I'm already that much giant jerk I'm trying to not swear so this yeah oh yeah you're a terrible person terrible person already um what's one more bead that is against your thing yeah I don't know yeah you're already horrible yeah so like does it matter if you're destroying women or men at that point that's what I mean yeah and like it's another lie so this is not a good show no you know I don't know what the network is that does all the reality shows but if there's any execs watching don't do it please don't do this you know the crazy thing about it though is is it really any worse than something like The Bachelor having actors on it yeah well cuz okay if there has ever at any point been any one who participated in that show that wasn't purely an actor who actually like believed in it cuz you know when they're gonna do the red stuff okay so there was the one TV show and I believe it was the UK someone could correct me on this where they had a Talent Search show that was fake have you heard about that no and they particularly picked people that were terrible and kept pushing them through and then I don't think they televised any of it or something and then the very last episode they televised and had a live studio audience and they basically told them on stage like you're horrible and it was super awkward it was it was it's I don't remember the name of the show but you can watch the last episode on YouTube and it has a giant dislike bar because everyone's like wow this is rough for like on stage in front of an entire yeah that was called America an American superstar okay so it was an American show oh wow that's yeah it was it was rough in front of a whole audience and they play like her singing like it's it comes down to between a guy and a girl and the girl wins and they play like a whole montage of her singing and it's oh it's not good and then they're like yeah so we picked you because you are the worst person in this category and then like yeah we're still gonna give you the studio deal but like come on also we're gonna give you a bunch of money it's really rough and like even watching that it was like kind of soul destroying it's really it's really rough Wow okay yeah Wow okay uh let's go ahead and make you some tech news cuz like I'm just feeling kind of dirty right now WB superstar yeah I think that's it let it sit WB superstar yes this is it The WB's superstar USA yeah oh man okay 40% of users like to this show like it's it's not oh all right the winner reveals here we go let's see oh oh that's a shame okay so here we go for some reason I can't find which retailer it's listed on the Tom's Hardware article doesn't say but this was originally posted by TX underscore to underscore step on the forum Texas two-step ah or transmitter two-step um the coffee lake platform is finally being expanded up until now you've been limited to what the 8700 K the 8600 K and the 8400 all high performance six core parts wait I 586 oh here we go so there are three new parts that are coming and I 580 600 like an on K and oh is there an 8700 already there might be there's an i-5 8500 so an even lower end is this gonna be a six core part and then an i3 8300 apparently was already an i3 350k you know what I haven't actually paid that close attention to it I haven't been able to think of a very compelling reason to buy coffee lake if you aren't going for an eighty six hundred K or at least an 80 400 or up because like I don't know if the 80 350 K already existed because unless you were getting six cores on the mainstream platform you might as well just go for kb lake because the boards are cheaper if you're not getting an unlocked chip you do not need to get AZ 370 board what can I do for you I just I just AJ AJ just posted in the floatplane work chat saying that's why I don't move you won't get my soul if you if you buy a house and go back one I hate you a little bit - that still means I own your soul so good okay so these are meant to be paired with the upcoming budget oriented H 370 and B 360 boards Pro Vantage is apparently the retailer also lists it down clocked T versions of all of these processors for bulk purchase so neat in other news this was originally posted over on digi x auo to begin shipping 8k TV panels in the first half of this year you care no I thought you don't yeah you said it in such an excited like okay TV panel then I was like I don't think it's like okay you know pickin a so here's why you might care about an 8k panel and did it okay you sit here reason number one you sit very close reason number two you really like stereoscopic 3d shut up and you want your stereoscopic 3d to be at 4k because every other line would be effectively actually it would be a little little more because it would be double the resolution of 4k know half the resolute of it would be double the pixel count half the resolution sorry okay reason number the third that's a pretty creative number two I'm interested you really like um high-performance display scalar technology and you want high-risk shot up high refresh rate 4k displays okay so those scalars will have to be developed and built for these 8k TVs and eventually be able to wrinkle down reason number the fourth trying really hard here um you uh you you want pixel densities to keep climbing for mobile displays actually it's pretty different technology for you I don't think I want to complain about while I have a moment here and we're talking about panels yeah is I've been holding off I don't know if you remember like a year and a half ago when I was trying to buy a swift really great hold on yeah hold that thought people are talking about the Olympics like an 8k so funny because most of the feeds of the Olympics look like they're not even 720 yeah yeah yeah the CBC feeds are pretty good but yeah I think they're probably about seven twenty but they're pretty good the yeah I wanted to buy Swift like a year and a half ago issue the new monitor my monitors right now we'll just black screen for one two three seconds at a time yeah yeah randomly okay cuz they're dying yeah I've had them for quite a while it's okay yeah you've had them since like the NCIX tech tips days yeah okay yeah they're doing it okay yeah yeah it's it's a little early I think but like it's early in the they lasted a long time range so it's fine but yeah I've needed a new monitor for a while because they're black screening on me like that pretty and I'll be the worst thing is like if I'm playing counter-strike and the screen goes black and then I get flash bang and you're dead well it's yeah cuz so screen goes black and I'm like crap I need to like hide and wait for the one two three seconds that my screen is black and then I come back in and someone's flash back to me so I'm like first of all pure black to extreme white now I'm just like oh goodness still can't see ya just need to wait it's it's terrible so anyways I've been waiting for that a sous monitor that I saw it see not this year but your previously the 144 Hertz 4k it has every buzzword you could ever want it still not out I would be shocked if it hasn't landed in the next couple months oh.just that's I'm not gonna say what I know but I'll say that I would be shocked okay reason number five okay everyone is making me say it pornography like three pixels to the width of every pubic hair nobody is asking for this nobody you know I think you're asking for this you're not asking for that at a certain point it's better to leave it up to the imagination to it like just a little bit okay and speaking of imagination I can imagine that it's gonna be tough for a Colton to assign sponsors ever

hungry right now Savage tricked the box of jerky is so heavy I can't lift it I thought it'd just rip again I'm gonna have to pace myself on the maple buffalo bacon I had an entire pack last week during the show and after writing you were munch on it after oh I was munching the heck out of that after the show what do you want this week I'm down just want the traditional sure I'm gonna do the cracked pepper and sea salt that actually sounds pretty good but I'll go something else okay sounds good just don't touch my maple buffalo bacon and we're good no it's fine you know what traditional oh there we go Oh in the new package Lulu new package for there's no perfect so savage jerky mmm their goal was to create a snack made with the best ingredients without nitrates or preservatives that wasn't bad for you but that was full of flavor and spice I'm like drooling right now like actually really excited not drooling salivating but it hasn't come out of my mouth so it's not drool yet I guess we've got 13 different flavors of jerky some of our personal favorites are the maple buffalo meat bacon the Moho the I like the cracked pepper and sea salt I don't think you're as big a fan of this one but Luke loves the traditional I'm not as into the traditional you get depends kind of like what what mode am in and then if you have a fire hall that lives like in your mouth then and you're into the like really spicy stuff they've got all kinds of flavors for you everything from Carolina Reapers to ghost peppers to like truly spicy friggin jerky and they don't just have jerky they do a spice rub they've got barbecue sauce hot sauce I haven't tried their hot sauce I should actually try it I I love hot sauce they've never seen pesto sauce yeah fishy give us give us that hook there Carolina Reaper hot sauce uses one of the hottest peppers in the world so go check it out at Jeanne dot us apparently Savage turkey calm yeah just go to savage turkey calm andrew's offer code LTT there we go easy all right so what else what else we want to talk about today oh yeah it's kind of interesting hopefully um can we do this one first no fight yeah I just want to forget ah this was originally posted by monkey biz Oh nine eighty five on the forum the original article here is from BBC com are we gonna ignore the no let's just use the name cuz I mean that's right here yeah Kylie Jenner is apparently so over snapchat and their shares tumble single handedly with evidently a single tweet okay well 1.3 billion dollars was wiped off of snap stock market value after she tweeted that she is no longer using yeah yeah go ahead you go first I'm gonna add a couple one it jumps right before the fall and it also looks like a somewhat natural pattern fall and there's bigger dips here that's not even the main one but what's interesting about it is just that it happens instantly oh sure yeah also there's been a lot of doubt sewn around snapchat for a while now and you can see they're trending down they're super trending down like to be clear guys this is only the last five days and like all of this concatenated into one date like that's sorry that's almost a straight line to yeah and like Marquez recently had I think you released a whole video about like leaving snapchat or not liking snapchat or something yeah let's see can I talk about problem number two actually okay so problem number two is like why do people care that much what this okay you know what no I get it okay I cared about Marquez is a prominent influencer isn't using a social platform your snapchat 1.7 million views that's from two weeks ago weeks ago no I know but I'm saying there's been a lot of doubts own okay whatever you might think or not think about Keeping Up with the Kardashians or whatever you can't argue that they've been successful at exploiting social media so if they are like not if they've so over snapchat then that does actually seem relevant from a shareholder perspective problem number the last for me is why did anyone ever give a crap about snapchat I don't get it this is now I've disliked it the entire time this is now two platforms that I have just not really gotten and I've had a lot of people putting pressure on me because I'm supposed to be in the social media space these are two platforms now vine and snapchat but I've just like not really gotten that have ultimately ended up disappearing and I haven't had to participate in them yeah I bought into Twitter Facebook and Instagram not like I don't own chairs I mean like I was like YouTube obviously as well but like those are the ones that I kind of went yeah okay I'll invest the time to bother to develop these things and like learn how they work and stuff yeah um those two didn't get it as far as I could tell snapchats entire value was trendiness and it means that as soon as you're not trendy where's your value yeah and somebody that someone in the twitch chat said nudes and like even then that doesn't really make any sense you just send nudes by email like I don't understand what's the special value well yeah well part of the idea was that it would disappear but since forever everyone's known that you can just screenshot a record course and I do not realize that yeah really I think people didn't but that's volatile and now if you screenshot a record it tells the person so now it like sends them a message saying that you screenshot it so now it's just like kind of awkward I think I don't know you're preaching to the choir a little bit I've never liked snapchat to any degree the only reason why I have it right now is my brother sends me random things every once in a while because he prefers snapchat okay and that's about it huh how else am I gonna send my nudes says elusive soul any other that you can literally even send them through Instagram direct message okay okay we've got a perfect segue into your flow plain stuff citizen something citizen I am something something does flow plain work in the UK yeah that thing you told me today oh yeah pull up what's on there and you go ahead and talk about that cuz that's pretty cool we have a viewer I didn't even know you read that message I thought you did we have a viewer from Antarctica and it works Wow you had a payment problem which is unsurprising but but it works which is great favorite problem has been solved yeah so we can see we can see a map of wherever he just told me but yeah okay you can see that too it's really cool because the audience is shockingly global it's a very distributed yeah which is cool and scary cuz we have to solve it what do we got here oh there's some good stuff in here who needs more CPU cores this is finally going up Wow so this is kind of an explainer of core i7 versus cry 9 as you can tell it isn't sponsored um liquid metal in a phone is this the first I believe ok yeah yeah yeah so the follow up the follow up to liquid metal in a laptop it's actually shocking I was gonna say this might even be more interesting for a lot of people yeah the one year airflow experiment the stunning conclusion is apparently missing a proper thumbnail so I'll go hit someone after the show but that's up it's done it's ready wow that's a lot of views yeah um wow there's a lot of discussion too but um buying selling and safely storing Bitcoin mining adventure part 4 is up so we go through some of the wallet options some of the exchange options just kind of help the whole twitch chat is flipping out that we finally are releasing the air finally happening it's on to a plane now yep you can go watch it right now Compu loud isn't a brand that most people will probably have heard of but this product is very cool it is a passively cooled small form-factor gaming machine with a GTX 10 60 or 70 I think it's a 10 60 maybe 10 70 I'll remember it's really good though um oh no that went up on that went up on YouTube that mapping you think we're probably YouTube's range now I think we're probably yeah yeah there might be maybe something left oh I don't know if handy tak under 100 mostly gaming went up on YouTube maybe you did it oh yeah oh yeah 120 hertz pc gaming on a TV still hasn't youtube so um the reason for that is that when we're scheduling it's a lot easier to push something by a week then it is to push something by a day and so for whatever reason we have a simultaneous release that we have to do on a day when something scheduled it usually gets bumped like the same day the following week and i think it's happened about 1/2 way it'll come yeah it'll come alright what else we got today yeah Wow apparently snap CEO was paid six hundred and thirty seven million last year thought to be the third highest annual package ever received by a company CEO so this is in spite of them being under pressure for Instagram like taking all their key features and users complaining about the redesign brilliant as much as we can as fast as possible I know right personally pull it all out personally yeah yeah um Samsung speaking of which the SAS auction was a lot of fun yeah do you want to talk about it are we gonna leave it in the video so there's actually gonna be two of you okay I don't know if people even knew that what's happening yeah you should so NCIX had their bankruptcy auction on Wednesday and Thursday of this week so I had gone in intending to make one video but honestly it would be like a service yeah okay or that we would have to cut too much or it would be too long and it's two different days even and it is what makes sense it is across two days I had also intended for it to be like really structured here's some stuff we found here's some stuff we bought here's how much we paid SIA and what it really turned into was more like me and Eddie digging around the warehouse and like finding relics like I found a computer that I built that's what yeah in the warehouse yeah do you remember the one with the flames YES on it yeah that still has the original build that I did in it like eight years ago and it was just like sitting in a pile in the warehouse I really wanted to go just for that kind of reason like I wanted to go back to the original filming room and stuff mm-hmm but like I just I didn't have the time it was it was pretty it was pretty fun it was sentimental yeah you know there was some funny stuff I'll get my sentimentality out of the video there there was some kind of sad stuff like I come across like the box of sort of her stuff to work with everyday like her gloves and like you know personal effects not personal effects company effects but that like her box of like stuff that she needed by her scanning station for like someone who's really nice and that worked there a long time and worked hard and was as far as I could tell a very nice good person and just doesn't have a job anymore because of mismanagement yeah so there was like some sad stuff um there's some random stuff at one point ed and I leave the auction and we go play squash did you his film that yeah I've never tried squash before which of course is a perfectly legitimate reason to be playing squash definitely when you're supposed to be at work yeah video totally um so no one at flow plate is allowed to absorb that mentality hooray all right yeah you're moving forward so anyway it ends up being two vlogs a vlog for day one of like digging through everything cuz that was when they had the viewing time when you were allowed to go in and like pick through all the different auction Lots yeah and then part two where we attend the actual auction I tried you know what no I'm not gonna talk about it oh yeah we should partly talk about alt X that's pretty cool that's oh yeah LTX is happening right um yeah so where we actually go to the auction we you know do auction things we leave the auction we run into Julia at all what's that cafe called it starts with a Z I think he is yeah we run into Juliet Xia's who talked about like the stuff that people are buying probably being broken you know she's doing now yeah she said I makes computer shop yeah yeah she's like back on YouTube so yeah there you go yeah so she was very she wasn't tacky about it when when she well sometimes people will go on camera and would be like hi yeah you guys might remember me from NCIX tech tips I'm with Mike's computer shop now go see Mike's computer shop no she was very good about it so that's that's why Julia gets the shoutout for being at Mike's computer shop on the one show right now yeah yep yeah good good good for him good for him you know what did you wanna talk about alright LTX so yes we know we know LTX Expo is redundant yeah but like you guys go find a 7 character dot-com domain I challenge you that's right that's what I thought there's good there's gonna be a lot of responses yeah we'll just find like I'll be pretty dumb yeah so we got a bunch of information here um I don't know if we have any partners yet so that's probably not probably empty yep well hey course there's in cool also though this is last year all my partners I told me really needs to put that on another page but yeah that's really terrible or just not anywhere yeah just probably shouldn't be there or like it should be smaller or something yeah it's freaking huge um yeah that probably doesn't make a ton of sense but yeah we got you know partners we got a map map and schedules nope oh that's coming soon too there's a really helpful website so it's good that it's subject to change because if it wasn't gonna change it was just coming soon forever then that would be bad yeah okay hold on a second so here's an event map coming soon but you can download it nope nope that just takes you back so it was built on Squarespace but it was built by monkeys so it goes to show you Squarespace beautiful website but you actually still do have to like it still looks good yeah it looks good and it's fast gallery oh so here's ago so a lot of people thought that LTX was just like small or lame or whatever and it was a little small it was a little lame but it was actually a lot of fun uh-huh we had an absolute blast last year so here's a bunch of the stuff from from last year a bunch of the stuff that people could do this year not Schilling legitimately one of my favorite conventions in years this one is gonna be a lot more emphasis on the like the one piece of feedback we got from people was that they could come in for two hours they could kind of do everything so the idea this year is it's a one-day event and we want to make it so that it's basically impossible to do everything hmm cool so every booth needs to have enough to see or do that you can't do everything and one of the other things that this was an external feedback but one of the other things that we thought that we needed to improve was there there was a lot of stuff to do at LTX to the point where it would actually take you all day if you were to try every carnival game and yeah and and participate in everything but there wasn't much of an incentive so I think a lot of people ended up kind of like crowding into a corner and like chatting with each other or whatever else sorry oh yeah we could figure that out anyway um so a lot of people ended up kind of not doing everything and then we ended up giving away a ton of like prizes randomly at the end in a raffle so this time cool there's gonna be like mondo prizes for like going on the bungee run or for throwing cases as far as you can or whatever else the case may be and I think I'm gonna do like the Explorers pass this is a new hand in the Explorers past for a ticket for the raffle and the Explorers passing us to get stamped at all the different booths once you complete the activity oh that's interesting yeah that's a good idea - I've been to a lot of I was actually about to say one of the things that we should probably do is also enter people just for participating in lots of stuff so yeah that would be great that would be a lot of fun I like the combination of like if you get past a certain threshold like if you beat like 90% of people at this thing or whatever and at the beginning the day maybe it's easier yeah Colton was not in Colton's Intuit cool so it's good yeah we're gonna have a lot of fun so go to Lt axe Expo com to get very few details but you can get tickets though can't you I think you can get tickets right now because I heard the like big tickets already sold out really yeah I think so oh wow someone tweeted me saying that they're like they wanted it and now they're sad or something I don't know I sold that gang okay so in a nutshell we can't really tell you much about it but unlike last year where we were pretty tepid on the land show about sorry how much fun it would be it's gonna be fun this is really really fun this is a tag line okay we can't tell you much about it but it'll be fun trust us yeah you've got a much bigger venue this time we're gonna as someone who's gone to add a minimum one text slash gaming convention every single year for like 14 years or something yeah yeah it feels a little bit more like some of the older ones did where there was more stuff to do if you go to pax these days they're still really cool but they're mostly like a spectator sport kind of situation where you're mostly just like looking at things there isn't a lot of activity there's a lot to look at it takes like two hours to wait through a line to play a game that kind of stuff what I really liked about the last LTX and seems like it's gonna be a thing at this one and you even mentioned like there has to be enough stuff for people to do you didn't say see you said do it's it's fun because there's so many activities like I don't know if we're bringing it back but last year there was like hardline water tube bending and like all this really cool I think we're gonna have a deal is your CPU station see like that's friggin cool so we're hoping to partner with the local retailers so the idea is that you could bring your CPU and we'd have the tools on hand and someone to help you or or if you don't have one then we'll have a board and a test bench handy so you can like buy a new one and we'll have hopefully a retail partner so you can just buy it on the spot test it make sure it works because you'll void your warranty instantly yeah and then you could deal it it and take it home and use it that's pretty sick actually yeah so like we've got we've got ideas damn that's pretty cool there's some pretty good ideas we could this might get expensive oh well we could have some and people could buy it to use but we could have like a free geek CPUs for people just to like do it with probably you know nummy we've got some really good ideas with three geek um so you've seen be like boxes and boxes like the pallets of stripped motherboard PCBs right yeah do you know about this no okay so one of the ideas that we pitched to or at least are going to pitch to free geek at some point is motherboard house of cards and then over the course of the day whoever builds the tallest ya card house out of motherboard P stripped mother word PCBs wins a motherboard I don't know like we'll figure something out cool but yeah just like cool so it would be kind of like you know at like science world when there's just like it's not a booty that's just like a bunch of blocks to put together or whatever oh so you guys kind of walk up there's a little sign explaining what to do and you just go for it and there's just a boxes of motherboard PCBs and you just you build it you just call a free geek person over and go like look how tall it is and they they write it yeah well great yeah that's cool I like it yeah so that's the that's the kind of stuff that that we want to do at it cool umm what else do we have for topics today what I really liked last year too was with a lot of those kind of things you'd run into random attendees that would become like like temporary single-serving friends for the show because they met doing whatever activity yeah because they ended up being paired up for whatever reason or they ended up just being next to each other and talking and whatever I thought that was really cool that's a good idea Colton we should have some activities where people are forced to participate like as a team with other people there so that we like make people mingle because that's what you need at Tech events you have to force people to talk to each other and get each other geez okay more topics yeah I don't know this is all apparently apollo' is gonna refresh the air pods ray um that yeah okay so I got it I go to Google home mini and my idea was a lot of times when I'm working I'll like think of something I need to remember later and it's actually like kind of annoying to do the couple steps to get into my phone or whatever and my phone isn't very great at responding to ok Google yeah I didn't even though it's on it's just not I don't know why so I got a Google on me and now when I talk to the Google home mini 50% of the time my phone does it too so this is like the issue that I have with them so there's a few things that are just kind of broken on Android and just sort of in general I guess here's one that really bugs me when I swipe away notification when I clear all on my phone do you have do you ever have it happen where your phone will just be like buzzing for the next 10 seconds because it will like Italy notify almost like an email notifications yeah it'll be like 9 just a 7 as it goes through them and it's just well might also refined them so once you're fully cleared out it'll be like oh you have you have a few throw a watch into the mix that's really annoying um that's not great there was another really stupid like just dumb stuff why is it that Google in their infinite wisdom added marques read to their SMS app which is super freakin handy by the way like when you drag it when you when you just pull down the notification yeah I can reply or mark as read why isn't that not in Gmail why is that not in hangouts why is that not in literally anything else yeah because and this is really frustrating on iOS on iOS there's no way to mark a text messages on read so if you're like me and you use read and unread only way to track what you haven't haven't dealt with yet yeah why is this so hard I don't get it another thing with the Google home Mini is I made it play a song just good one to see how the speakers were and then I was like it's really loud by default and like the speaker isn't very great so I was like I kept on telling it like I'm gonna stop doing proper commands but essentially turn the volume down yeah it it inaudibly went down okay turn the volume down okay turn the volume down okay turn the volume down I just kept doing it it was like not noticeably going down so then I was like turn the volume down a lot and then it went to a completely inaudible level of volume and there's no like there's no volume physical slider or anything so I can't it's just voice commands I can't do it through my phone it's so I'm just like so it's blaringly ridiculously loud or off is like my too but but not off because it took me about 15 minutes to recognize like this weird buzzing sound that I could barely hear was like nicly music coming from the little bikes maybe just need better music loser maybe if your music was like happy you wouldn't mind if I don't know what it was playing at that point you heard me because it just random through google play music and with someone some random song I had no idea what it was people say do it by percentage set the volume to whatever okay not 25% all right but then that even takes trial and error because I don't know what percentage of that they're helping us they're helping us okay that's that's decent though that's not that yeah it should be it should go down a reasonable amount if you tell it to turn the ball I think tis jester nailed it here or loop could just not be an idiot nice thank you guys oh that's so appreciate that yeah yep yeah Luke was Luke was wrong Luke was wrong 2018 don't bring that website back the statement is cool the website is not cool yeah yeah um all right so I guess that's pretty much it yeah everything else yeah some pirates did pirate stuff yep with Microsoft's uwp protection you know Samsung unveiled a big SSD but that is physically small just lots of capacity hooray utorrent there's a vulnerability that's bad that's surprising lordy there's more augmented reality stuff out of Google so call me in two years yep Tesla is doing a wall charger but now for your office which is like okay okay um apparently it'll be free but you stuff to pay for electricity what okay also Asus is launching premium GTX 1050 and 1050 TI graphics cards with a hundred and forty four hour of burning quality control and longer warranties aimed at LAN cafes okay from my experience when it comes to like cheap products it's usually it usually makes far more sense to just like buy a new one when it bricks because by then the new one will probably be better than the old one but whatever so we'll see you again next week same bat-time same bat-channel by LAN cafe is still thing in some places very much so yeah I definitely still a thing but like I don't see why they would buy a more expensive card for it new website live with Mediacom let's do did someone already think it you're already there that's Paulette right would that be terrible misspelling Luke wasn't even oh it's available it's available Luke was an idiot calm fantastic Luke will be wrong 2019 calm and
