press a button and we're live welcome to the wine show how's it going how was your week how was your week it's the Northshore that's the Naja lion buddy not about that I'm sorry we're in bizarro land yes game went by that went by faster I guess I think of having really poor short-term memory helps because you Monday people what do people would you do this weekend yeah something not very novel apparently write read books we have an interesting show today though if you're if your weekend went by kind of quickly and wasn't interesting as well maybe this will be an interesting cap to the end of the rest of the week we're talking about people not knowing that they're talking to a I yes is a surprising amount of sophistication from Google duplex but we'll talk about little blue everyone's collective mind at their i/o conference earlier this week and we're also gonna talk about Boston Dynamics he's kicking ass on the other part of robot futures yeah embodied part oh my put them together and it can talk and move also Nintendo has shared some details about its switch online service which is Coolio and rumors about the iPhone 10 plus sized version of the future this fall the big one the big 10 I thought it was already pretty big no we'll talk about that okay I'm not really into the whatever that's fine can you see his feet when using the boat what he's in the boat yeah okay what's up what again no not refined of that no one leg you can you can see is yeah you can see the Sun it's light you can see his feet though you can they're one of the best like Mario is super annoyed that's my best sound I can do that's pretty my I really wish I could do the tube spectrum yeah stop is jerky and - isn't here haha also gonna eat all the maple bacon fresh but just reset this thanks ba and then go back to here yes we're bad it how's it going everyone I'm not the twitch at open which makes you feel strange I'm gonna fix that you want to let's just get right into Google duplexes I think that was the coolest thing I've seen at least all year I think okay let's just assume that no one's our sources and SC to Mitch on the forum is a SC to image yeah yes and I assume that stands for Starcraft you I've just obviously I'm gonna go with it I like it I feel like I've I've I've been told what it's stood for before but I don't remember but I'm gonna go with Starcraft yeah yeah anyways I will never trust anyone on the phone that goes uh-huh mmhmm that's it yeah yeah mmm-hmm so at Google i/o which is their conference every year for developers as opposed to the made by Google Hardware event in the mall which is for consumer products at Google i/o this week they were showing off all the new feature tech that they're doing it's it's way beyond Android now and one of the things they showed is a future service that's gonna be rolling out later this year that they call what the hell why does something weird happen like out there every time we're on this thing to us yeah they're calling it Google duplex and the idea here is that in the future Google's gonna help you get stuff done that's the Google assistants job and one of those things that you need to get done a lot of the time is making a phone call to book reservations at a restaurant or book a hair appointment or something like that and these are the two examples they showed so sundar puts up on the screen behind him a real recording of a real call I don't expect that they did hundreds or thousands of these calls and they probably cherry picked and it seemed like there was the the person that picked up the phone was the same person on like a few of them that I heard oh there's more than just the two he demoed there's more calls you can listen to I think I heard three but I could be really not remembering accurately again we've got a similar short term memory loss situation at least two for sure I heard one where it was a guy calling in yeah to a Chinese girl calling in to something at her appointment yeah those are the ones alone for my client yeah that's what a demo okay yeah yeah so on the screen we just see kind of a visualization of a phone call you get a little the Google assistant logo representing the robot or the AI and then just like a phone logo representing the person and the person answers a phone and says you know this is the hair salon how can I help you and then you hear this impeccably human sounding voice on the other side saying hey I'm calling on behalf of a client and I'm looking to book a hair appointment and then a conversation ensues and the result of which is my hair point is booked and then I guess the users phone would receive a notification that says you have got a hair appointment so you can just be like hey assistant booked me a hair appointment at this place for this time or between this time between 10:00 and 12:00 on Friday and then a few minutes later you're gonna get notifications yep that's done yeah someone in chat said Luke is skeptical as usual I think it will work as advertised service people stick to a script I am skeptical but I think it will usually work because of what you just said yeah usually when you're calling into a restaurant there's a fairly formulaic way right you would book a reservation that is absolutely true right it's not even necessarily that they stick to a script it's just there's fairly basic and for me information that needs to be passed back and forth and it's not that complicated to first that's right so that kind of that kind of feeds into how the voice sounds because it sounds really realistic it sounds more realistic than a Google assistant voice it even sounds more realistic than the Google assistant voice using wavenet which is another thing they announced at i/o wavenet which was a system that was outlined in a paper by google's deepmind like 18 months it was finally being integrated into the Google assistants so this is just taking in raw waveforms and and making your phonemes based on that it makes the google assistants voice way better they demoed that and it still wasn't as good as what we hear on duplex which makes me think that what we hear on duplex for the most part is pre-recorded sound bytes you can hear it sounds a little inhuman when they say numbers and dates and times because that's kind of lately that's kind of turnkey they plug that in but the reason they would be able to use pre-recorded sound bites is because the possible set of interactions is much decreased when you're in this kind of scenario where like you just need to do this one thing and a lot of it is like let me check that for you or would you mind going on hold for a second or something like that where you just need to like confirm so the amount of times that's why I keep on saying that mm-hmm thing because the amount of time and that's all you really need to say on the phone and that's often all you really say on the phone but the amount of time the amount of times that the AI says it and does it very believing ly very believably believable you got uh and like it's it's it's really good the one thing that I noticed was there's like a flight delay like a little bit more than I feel like most people would take before they say something but not very much and I think to counteract that like they programmed in some delay like when you answer the phone and say hello they program in a wait a because no one just goes hallo ho yeah yeah I'm wait a second right and I might have been paid I might have been trying to look for it they also programmed in um yeah I mean it there's gonna be some processing time too right yeah really cool so the reason that they can do that is because when I talking to my Google assistant I could say anything to it and it has to be able to respond but as this user on twitch says in this situation not only is the computer basically performing a script a narrow set of actions of possible actions but so is a human because the human on the other hand is just trying to get some basic information from you someone's calling in what time do they want to come how many people it was complain about the contrast I'm trying to fix it but I'm really bad I like that it's like an Instagram filter I'm really bad at doing anything related to this at all so how brittle do you think this system is gonna be when it launches that's everyone's first complaint like what if someone just says enjoying the weather we're having and it doesn't know what that means yeah like if they need to do something that's trying to carry on small talk yeah honestly there might be some stuff set in I wouldn't be too surprised if there's some stuff set in too like basically cut those kind stations off by just using the mm-hmm yeah enjoying the weather we're having mm-hmm well another difference is that during the demo the assistant never announces itself as such it never says hey you're talking to a robot and a lot of people got pretty angry about that but Google has since the demo promised that when it rolls out it will announce itself as as a virtual assistant so then you're not even gonna have those problems because of it you know you're talking to a person but you're not just gonna hang up like you were me might when we answer our phone and there's a robot there because it's business and you don't want to lose that business you want that appointment to get most well most businesses probably wouldn't hang out yeah I know I I completely agree because you want the business but I think it's I think it's I didn't know that it was gonna announce that's a new development okay because I feel like now if I was a business if I had a text version I would just want that oh you mean like if there's just an online web form yeah yeah I would rather that Google just filled that out well well you would have to pay for that though you have to build that that booking system where is over sure but there's a lot of like open table for restaurants yeah there's open table there's like a lot of different services like this have services out there that work with them to pair that together now I don't know if opentable like takes something I can't see how they could take a cut but like I'm sure there's some benefit there you might have to pay them to be on it or there's ads or something I have no idea there's another angle with the virtual assistant announcing itself which is eavesdropping laws so when at least a dozen states there's laws because it's not it doesn't have ears like you and me it's not hearing the conversation it means to actually record the conversation and because the you're recording the conversation there's states where every party on the in the conversation each party has to consent to it being recorded so either has to say this is a virtual assistant can I record this or maybe it can get away with just announcing this is being recorded and if you don't hang up you can send out another particular laws for each state I feel like that could work just you know this call is being recorded please hang up if you don't want it to be yeah but then or maybe you you you would have already started recording so I think you already broke the law so you'd have to be like this call will be recorded in however much time please hang I don't know I don't know that's weird maybe they just won't let it well it doesn't no it doesn't necessarily have to have begun recording yet they can just say that script before it starts hearing that's what I was saying yeah so they might have to delay when it starts recording right this call will be recorded in X amount of seconds hang up if you don't want it to be again start the conversation I don't know how to fix this for you guys I'm sorry I don't know camera stuff I've slightly moved all the dials I went down and people hated it I went up and people hated it I don't know I'm sorry some camera person I'll have to fix it eventually I don't know why when Cho gets screwed up every week but it does we had way more lights this time for the demo when they when the virtual assistant was calling all these people when they're collecting this data and they're doing on like their test runs they did presumably hundreds of these calls I think this is kind of like it might go down in the history books because when what other time like if we live in a future where there's a eyes that look like us and think like us and are better than us you're gonna be able to look back in time and point to a scenario where yep that was the first time that a human didn't know they were talking to an AI yeah cuz no one leaked this no one was like I think a computer called me like I never saw an article about that you don't like they didn't know yes they talked to in the hung up I mean there's been chat BOTS people could be talking to chat BOTS yeah there's the Turing test which again is chat based not yeah audio base yeah but even in the Turing test the the participants they know that one of the conference the one of the conversations are gonna be having is gonna have an AI so like they're looking out for it yeah pretty cool and the Turing test could be used with chat with vocal chat in mind just be adapted for like I know it's a specific it hasn't been conducted like that though yeah I know but like it could be you could be adapted there's lots of ways to adapt the imitation game because it's actually not that great of a test that anyway yeah let's disco right Boston Dinah I think it's very cool I don't want to like play the audio in stream so I don't know how well it's gonna come out and all that kind of stuff but if you guys haven't heard of it before now I would definitely look up Google duplex and listen to the calls cuz it's way more interesting than it probably seems in fact if you have its I mean when you're on YouTube it looks like the video is three hours long but if you have it's probably only an hour and a half and if you have that time I would say watch all of IO there is a lot of car belong to I there's a lot of cool stuff and they're not just duplex duplex was definitely the coolest FET before the end of this weekend I will have seen the whole thing that's all you have you seen the bit with lens no oh that's so crazy I've had almost no time I've been super slammed is because now that they've got such good image recognition they're getting closer to Google's endgame goal which was informations coming at you without you needing to query it with like you're walking down the street let's say you have some cool glasses and you just look at a building the image recognition knows that that building is the Washington Monument and then the card comes up with the information about it it looks so awesome and it's it's integrate with the AR kit so it's like a nice distance away from you like this nice depth oh yeah so it's not just a window that comes up here it's like anchored to in space right it's so sweet that's cool okay so now we have this well the source is Linus's email thank you very much linus is email and Linus wants to talk about this one he does oh that's why he send it to me why does he care I don't know I mean you can just do it no that's fine sniper there's another Nintendo one we can do I also don't with this one no that's another Linus one okay the I don't care what we talk about I'm freakin down I want to talk about Boston Dynamics shirts because we're onto this robot like kind of kick right now yeah so this again was se to miss you posted it in the forum oh dude Boston Dynamics they're amazing they make bewildering robots like new backflips and stuff they have a kick-ass use of the channel you saw the door opening wound right yeah already holds Oh it holds the door open for the other one to walk through go to their YouTube channel it's so cool every few months they upload a new video of what what the progress they've made and two days ago they did that they have plated two new videos one shows the Atlas robot can we play it yeah we don't need audio or anything no yeah this is I want to put this I'm gonna make this into a gif and put it on my Twitter and pin it this is so inspiring oh no here we go it's grammerly look at that bang doodoo uneven ground grass variable friction yes - I want the rocky theme in the background yes I want to go up I wish he raised his arms up he does that in the back that video it oh yeah yeah I know that makes sense yeah yeah that is to run I know kids who can't run that's amazing that the only thing is in most of their videos when they have one of the robots walking around somebody kicks it or pushes it with a hockey stick or something and they don't get that in this video and I would assume that's because it can't take it yet if they could take it they'd show it yeah it also looks like those are what do you call this linear hips oh yeah so if they hit the side it'll probably just tip over oh I see yeah give me a figure eight here but at the same time it might be able to the arms aren't so they'll be all the teach the kids you off buddy just play that again and again this is a jump I just want to make sounds now you're doing I love you can make that noise I've never heard anyone do that before I really wish I could do that going down a tube sound not even I don't know the human yeah yeah I can't even possibly the only reason why I went to choose so people would know what we were even talking about that's yeah bad I want to see that robot Duke a football player oh you know like go this way and spin or something yeah that'll be epic so you wouldn't need it would need multi-directional hips you're right cuz just doing this yeah so the second video that they uploaded was their spot mini which is the smaller quadrupeds like one it's the one that you might have seen videos where it has a weird arm slash head slash whatever you want to call it that opens doors and recycles cans in this video it doesn't have that instead it has this extra little modular on the on the back this white box and what you're watching is this thing navigate itself it's kind of self driving right now you know it has a route that I believe it's trying to do and it's it's just moving through space if you click forward in the video they'll actually put a render on the side of the screen to show you the data that it's seen yeah there we go so reading up if you look at the description of the YouTube video what a queue says is it's not inherit it's not going through this as a novel situation they've actually manually piloted the robot through this area first to teach it we're going to map it and then it goes through on its own after that which is still useful I mean if your honor it's not trying to I don't think yes but I don't think he's trying to follow so some people might think like okay I've done this one so it's gonna do like exactly step by step I think he's trying to go to the same destination correct but it's still like alert like they could have put a box in the way or something and it would be able to deal with that's right it's not on like a set path yeah it's just going through a known so it's like they gave it a map but like it's still hard to get there which I mean self-driving cars do have that yeah yep I just wanted to clarify too something yeah yeah that's pretty sweet I mean the fact that it has to drive through first it seems like it would limit the applications if you're thinking about like a conflict zone then you know you're not gonna be able to bring this thing at first but maybe you could drop fly in small drone first or use a different type of robot - or a different type of vehicle to map the area it's also this is also completely autonomous navigation so like if you're bringing in another robot you could like you could use this as some sort of like patrol or to check your own areas or something like that and have manually controlled things to check out areas that you haven't seen before right go back to the part where it's on the stairs there's actually something you'll notice when it gets to the top of the stairs and it wants to turn around again so if you think we're looking at it - but right now right now skip ahead just a bird like its face right so it gets to the top now I wants to go back it wants to go down and see how it turned around it's like its legs are optimized for kind of oh no relative to what we were looking at before it's it was kind of going backwards down those stairs yeah is he gonna yeah so he always wants that end to be lower face down ass up I guess it's got those grasshopper legs yeah I want to see this thing jump did you see that other one they have that's on wheels around it it could jump like yeah Peter something up the thing was crazy I love that thing I don't know the name of that one but so badass these guys are the best those it's like murdered friends did you see that mangled that one is like oh okay too many hockey sticks why so okay I read that and I was googling about it and then I was I came across this other articles like hold up stop the press spot mini is gonna be on sale next year in 2019 you're gonna be able to buy one of those things so much I didn't know it doesn't say they don't say but I think these things were gonna be for sale to the general public like anytime soon so it says I can't wait for the the like the Casey nice that drone review of this we gotta get one for sure no I'm just saying like it just seems like the kind of thing he would buy yeah I'd like ride it around New York somehow I think we should we shouldn't even do a sponsored thing we should just outright buy one so we can have it around all the time I want to put my lunch on it and like get it to carry it down the stairs for me and stuff you can get it we want to get an imagined to rig a camera into it we use my different attachments yeah and you know have you ever seen it do the chicken head thing or it can move its body but the the head oh they doesn't want one position so we could do that with it's like a basically a gimbal that would be cool we don't need to hide you know that video where we were saying we're hangin another shooter we're not we're just gonna wait it out spot many we're just getting a spot many to walk around things awesome last 90 minutes it's all electric obviously it's wireless you're probably not gonna buy one when they come out they're probably gonna be stupid expensive probably give me tens of thousands of dollars yeah and not really for you yet although it will be probably for governments and PMC's mostly it's gonna be a consumer product eventually that's their hope couple years after that so right now there are ten spot many prototypes in existence I guess not counting the murder ones and they're hoping to make one like a total of 100 by the end of this year and then sell them next year so they think it'll be useful for security patrols or helping construction companies keep tabs on what's happening at the building site so security overnight okay and security patrol pretty much and you can get specialized attachments for different types of jobs yeah I like the idea of it auto following someone with a camera that's cool paramilitary company what would happen if you put a little roller skates on each foot private just like just like I you troll the normal dog yeah putting socks on it I don't please stop that's super cool though what else you want you want talk with this tickets thing yes this is kind of a a low-tech thing yeah but it's it's a problem that plagues a lot of people that are probably watching right now here's the problem with tickets the thing there's a big economic problem with with ticket sales Freakonomics the podcast is a sweet episode about this actually when you go to buy concert tickets there the price of those concert tickets actually isn't driven by normal capitalist market dynamics this is supposed to buy WM groomed aka on the forum yeah who's a baller and I like him even more now that I know he's a nine inch nails fan like I am because anyone who likes science nails likes it a lot anyway when you tickets are basically too cheap because artists want all their fans to be able to come and see them if they were priced accordingly like just by supply and demand they'd probably be a lot more expensive and they are a lot more expensive when people are able to scalp them which they're able easily able to do with plots and so in order to reduce the number of bots scalping tickets the band Nine Inch Nails or Trent Reznor has made the decision on their upcoming tour this fall to not sell any tickets online at all they're going on at school you have to go and line up and buy them and you can't even line up overnight or anything like that you can't line up prior to 8:00 a.m. you have to just like show up and it's like a mob of people and then organize yourself in a line or maybe even a lottery system they talked about some venues maybe the the employees just come out and go okay like youuuu you're at the front and it's just like random because just because they don't sell online doesn't mean there won't be scalpers right yeah scalpers can just pay someone 20 bucks to stand there there is a limit of 4 tickets per person hopefully that will reduce the scalping okay I don't think that will completely solve it it won't but it'll make a dent yeah it's it's it's interesting this has been really frustrating with like so my dad and my group of friends have been going to PAX Prime since I was like 14 or something or 15 I don't remember we've been going for a very long time when we first started going you could walk up and go to the desk buy a ticket and walk in because there oh wow there wasn't enough fence and now for pax west like pax prime as it I know it they sell out in seconds and like they do this crazy queueing thing and there's limits per person and like they do IP lock and like all this crazy stuff doesn't matter completely gone immediately and there's an insane amount of scalping just outside of pax there's like many people scalping stacks of tickets every single year and there's an insane amount of scalping online there is a really nice community online where there's a bunch of different communities that sell them at cost okay because it's like oh I bought too many my friend can't go whatever that kind of stuff I suspect those communities have a whole bunch of people in them yeah just buying them and scalping them yeah but but I do know a lot of people that have gotten tickets at cost that needed them from those communities so it is working to a certain degree so that's cool but like it really sucks when me and my friends who have been going since pax was really small and like barely a convention are now struggling to be able to go even though we've been loyal this whole time and it's just like ah man that kind of sucks we still make it every year we somehow make it but it's just well you could always pay a bunch more yeah we I don't think we've had to do like oh we have to buy like two single days or something that we've never had to buy like entire sets of tickets for every person from scalpers we've never had to do that there are other approaches rather than going from the Stone Age and that have been experimented with one of them is basically kind of verified you buy your ticket you pay for it but you don't really have it until you show up with your identification with the credit card that bought the tickets then you're let in and they print the tickets for you at that time there's problems with that though because you cut you want there to be a secondary market you know you don't you want to be able to buy them the week before because you just found out or like you're visiting that city yeah you want to be able to buy online like nine sales fans are diehards people travel I won't snot a concert by the way I've seen them five times one set of concert eyes I was there and there was a lady who had followed them across Europe she'd seen them like 28 times she had a stack of picks for tambourines she got an autograph from him and then got that autograph tattooed on her body like she was insane people want to be able to see oh they're not coming back free but they're going to Seattle I'm gonna buy a ticket for Seattle yeah but I'm not gonna drive out there and get in an online on the hopes that I can buy a ticket and then drive out there again for the show yeah there's really no like great solution and it sucks I love the quote here speaking of sucks where does you say here we decided to try something different that will also likely suck but in a different way we're hoping many of you will be happy with results while some may do what they always do in bitch about it yeah like there's and there's no other way to say it he's trying something it's probably not gonna completely it definitely won't completely work I think I think for them they're just gonna have to try to like weigh the noise its trade-offs yeah and just like see how much less or more negative their new solution is it's not they're never gonna have like a perfect solution there was one other solution that's been tried I believe I take a master called verified fan you ever heard of that no it's I believe they take a certain number of tickets or maybe certain sections and what you do is you have to register like ahead of time to kind of a community forum that'll be on in this case ticketmasters website where you have to do all these different things that signal that you're a true fan you've got to engage with so many posts you've gotta like I think that's basically it like you're on it's like a process okay so to verify yourself it's not just I login see that that almost makes me kind of happy like something that I've wanted from pax for a long time is like okay so I've bought tickets to PAX West for like 12 years it would be nice if you knew that yeah but so I think I'll go let me buy another one they scan you in you know yeah but then like maybe I have like a profile and a scalpers could still do this but I was gonna say like I sign in at the event and I'm showing you like yeah I'm showing up every day this is me you can check me every time if you want like make make some process that you can go through that gives you some form of elevated accountable even what you just described would introduce quite a bit of friction to scalpers because if you're scrout scalping 10 tickets and then all those people arrive at like the same time and you can't wait in line 10 different times you might it would be harder though whatever introduces more friction and even the the waiting in line 10 different times thing no like if you have to verify it by ID and stuff they wouldn't be able to they'd only be able to scalp one set of tickets I actually got screwed by that once I bought we spent life or no I think was 560 bucks for Red Hot Chili Peppers tickets for four of them and I bought them on Craigslist and they were printed out and they were black and white and the guy was super sketch and we didn't feel good about it so my buddy was also texting the same person and after I bought them he continued to text them hey they're still available yeah they sure are met up with him again and busted them didn't end up at least we got like some collateral from the guy but he ended up just foregoing it like he we were we got his phone and stuff but he is because we were like we got your phone now you have to like give us a refund and he's like okay I go I'll go get money out I'll come back like tomorrow kind of thing and he never did and the cops didn't care at all so we just had his crappy phone after and like and his debit card or something like that you took his phone from okay I wasn't there I was I happen to be traveling I was but my friends who also were part of this and who are also larger than I am they confronted him and like how to stakeout and stuff it was cool but in the end basically the deal is they could have sold these tickets a dozen times and actually ours could have worked if we were the first one to get up yeah whoever gets there first and gets his tickets scanned the rest are inactive after that so that was a drag what a guy it's just so junk I don't like it when people when people pray on like the average person in general but it sucks too when someone's like so excited for something and they're gonna like they're gonna fork out the money for this band want to go see and they like yes I finally get to see him in concert and then they get like screwed at the door and so bad that the person scanning their ticket is probably like you're a terrible person you know what I mean and then you finally get in there you okay that all sucked but we're here and then the whole show is just actually someone else doing this in front of you holy kill yourselves I don't be Aegis but young people are getting pretty bad at that I've seen people have watched people just like just continually hold the button down and contribute each one to their story and then watch it themselves and then okay here's the fifth people if you're the type of person that likes to take cell phone recordings for your Instagram or snapchat or just for video at a concert know this every other person in the world when they log into their snapchat or Instagram and they're watching a story and that story is a dark room with crackling music they skip it man nobody watches it nobody you're ruining the experience for everybody for nothing including you you spying nasty off to almost certainly there was there was there was one time I went to a blink 182 concert I mean I'm I was a ridiculous fan obliquity to for a really long time nice not their new stuff take off your pants and jacket yank your life yes for sure an enema of the state and like was the album before that they had one before that they had two before that see you like I'm standing there first one no that was the first one where they were like a big deal oh yeah they also had a different drummer well that makes sense because he really catapulted them yeah Travis is kind of incredible let's go the discography ranch oh yeah I need it more I knew of dad dude yeah those were great like oh yeah there's the album cover with the big boxes but yeah rump yeah I like the old punk stuff whatever finally I ought to go see them in concert was so freaking stoked Travis gets like pulled up into the air his drum platform gets elevated on these like like a big cords and then they make it vertex trapped in a thing he's free was the one of the coolest things I've like ever seen and I did like pull my phone out but I recorded like lo the worst video that's ever existed just goes like I know it's gonna suck but I want to just like be able to remember it mm-hmm and that's yeah so I don't think I sent it to questions you just say as you watch that video again I did actually again and I deleted it immediately because it was completely useless you think recording it hampered your experience no okay cuz again I didn't I didn't put him from my face mm-hmm I didn't put it in front of anyone's face man I went to the like pulled it out between a song okay and like it was it was yeah I didn't there's a way to do it and I think everyone gets one the first ones free I went of this folkloric ballet and Mexico City once and this someone phone recorded that no I wish they had iPad oh I wish okay if I was a dictator if you live in one of those dictator countries one upside is you can make sweet or whatever silly lul you want and if I was a dictator my silly law would be if you see someone taking a photograph or a video with an iPad in public you are completely allowed and culturally sanctioned to walk by and bit swap that thing down to the ground and they can't get mad the gangster they can look you caught me slipping I hate it bench okay this lady recorded the anti I mean entire I mean in my her like an hour video someone stop her cuz wouldn't that even her to like not even I would have I was seething but there was a language barrier my Spanish isn't that good okay I didn't even mean you I meant like someone who was running I don't know we were at the kind of the top okay there was no haha I talked her out for the show though I embarrassed my wife I went up to the lady she it turns out she spoke English she wasn't Mexican actually and I I said I just wanted you know that you ruined the entire show for me you ruined it and she was like what I was on crutches and stuff so when I first I got stabbed a few days before and I I crushed up to her and so she was and I was excuse me and so she was just like okay where did you get stabbed in an uber in Mexico City oh yeah by the driver no he drove me a hospital Oh like we were we were stuck in traffic was broad daylight near a tourist area sorry just you can't just like drop that yeah it was a minor stabbing we are stuck in traffic right when you're in gridlock you can't move and the mistake we made was that our windows were down so they see a bunch of tourists the windows are down I'm sitting in the back and suddenly this there's a guy talking the driver at his window so being in South America I assume okay this guy's telling us something and then I see that they're like arguing and like he's got a knife and I'm like oh the drivers getting robbed and then I'm like oh we're getting robbed and by that time his partner there was two of them had to come to the other side and but everyone had their windows down to a different degree mine was like all the way down my buddy and I was behind the driver my buddy in the passenger seat his window was like this much down and my wife's window was completely up and she was behind the driver excuse me that was something to do with the power was it not okay anyway so my my friend at the front seat one of the assailants put his hand in that window gap and was like groping at his pockets to try to get his phone and meanwhile the guy on the driver's side came to the seizure stopped at a light we're stopping gridlock traffic Laura and the other guy came to the back and was like yelling at me and my thought was like why don't we just get out of the car and run away like they're not gonna chase us there's like a crowd of people everywhere like that's just exit the vehicle while they were like trying like yelling at us so I moved over toward my wife but couldn't open the door because it's like locks because the car is moving and basically I didn't I was probably this far from him from the window like I'm in the middle seat and I couldn't understand what he was saying but I now know it was like give me the stuff we're going to stab you what he did was he reached he didn't want to hurt me and by the way this guy was like 19 tops he reached in and like start stabbing at my legs and he got me just above the knee and it went in like a half inch like nothing and it didn't hurt it it kind of feels like it sounds that make sense kind of just like okay and I was just like god damn it so then I grabbed a backpack that we had and I threw the backpack at him and that backpack did contain a DSLR camera the one only piece of cashmere I owned and don't own since like a sweater it's like a two pairs of sunglasses we got like a decent haul and by the way insurance never end up claiming it because it was one of those situations where your insurance would go up and it wasn't worth it so he got that but he didn't get our passports oh I had just engaged I just become engaged I proposed my wife like the week before and the photos like I took a photo of her right after I proposed to her and she was like teary eye and had the ring so those kind of sacred photos were gone which was probably the biggest drag but we still had our passports and I just got my wife to give me her sweater and like tied her on the leg and then we took it took us like 45 minutes to get to the hospital oh it was so chaotic man it was like traffic we had a police escort but they were still inept we went to this first hospital and decided that wasn't a good one like we were outside the hospital like are they gonna come and like bring something and then like 20 minutes later like we're just gonna go to another one like okay we got to drive down the wrong side of the road with like police sirens blaring and stuff and the scoober drivers just like yeah it was insane yeah it was pretty cool my cousin speakers I've never been stabbed but my cousin when he was in high school there was another kid at the high school I guess who his gang initiation was to stab someone God he just like walked with my cousin after school and stabbed him my cousin pulled the knife out and stab in back hell yeah which is like not really smart what is like wounds and stuff I'm a badass but it was uh yeah my cousins are insane he's got that fight response oh sweet killer instinct good Ram I got the afraid respond the flight response oh god damn it just take the badge well I couldn't have ran if I wanted it felt like you had the like disappointed and disappointed response I guess like why is this what's happening hate for stupid thing I appreciate that he stabbed my legs instead of like your chest it was so yeah he could just be like I don't value human life like there's your neck or like he I mean he could have slept and got my femoral artery but the damage that was incurred was worth it for the story right like right now I have a scar yeah cool I'd show you but how did you take my pants off and the camera won't even see it so yeah it's not worth it yeah it's gonna be like get off the platform it's just it's too much stuff okay so the show is almost over oh yes sponsors we should probably do sponsors yeah let's start with savage jerk a Sauvage jerky which I'm sure they're gonna be okay with me saying it that way because they're amazing people with amazing stuff it's it's it's beef jerky it tastes amazing it's it's like see I don't know how to describe it very well it's very good beef jerky there's a whole bunch of there's 13 different flavors my favorite one is this one it's just the standard Moho you can also get crazy stuff like Reaper which is like Carolina Reaper infuse beef jerky there's bacon versions so there's like sriracha bacon if you're one of those many many people that are obsessed with sriracha or bacon or banner which is like that's a pretty big crossover I think I've been diagram there with like mostly overall yeah it's it's they say it's jerky made with the best ingredients and it doesn't have nitrates or preservatives and their goal was to create a snack that was full of flavor and spice that wasn't bad for you it's good if you go to the website and use code LTTE Thersites right here these code LTTE you save 10% off of all of their products trying to see how many I can hold at once as you can as you can see they had a lot of product they have yeah a lot of them there some that are great for your mouth some that are bad for your butt just the Reaper one that one did you have that one yeah yeah on the land show absolutely disarmed you here it was I tried to play it cool like it wasn't that spicy but it was spicy spicy enough you'll remember yeah these are non spectrum and if you don't want to like look like lazy James over there and you want to reduce blue light from monitors to like help you fall asleep at night and I alter-ego reading James really and you can get spectrum glasses you go to the website right here save 10% by using code Linus they say and this is totally a thing that's staring a monitor all day can be hard on your eyes and also make it tougher to fall asleep the fall asleep thing is is important to me using software solutions like f.lux or Twilight won't give you the same type of filtering that these kind of things can which is pretty cool they're stylish no no no you guys look pretty good I'm very hit-or-miss with glasses I don't think these look great on me but I sounds look great on Colten yeah I have had spectrum glasses that have looked good on me too and I think those look good on you I was wearing these for a while before I got like prescription glasses were those the specific ones these are the ones I was wearing at my desk for a while and sometimes I wore them just to look cool yeah they're pretty sweet isn't working but I think so they have low color Distortion yeah that's totally think there's there's a few of these that will like really hardcore make it look like everything's yellow yeah these don't and there's technically yeah there is technically some but it's not very noticeable like white stuff still looks white there are there are some competitive glasses that I've worn that do make things like yeah these are superlight which I like you can just you know yeah whatever you want they are primarily focused around Canadian US markets in terms of like shipping and all that kind of stuff but they are expanding it to Europe and they do offer international shipping they're just going to Europe now yeah I didn't know that yeah you know I went to school with the founder oh he's a nice guy his name's also James oh it's a nice guy by his glasses cool I didn't know that and if you're thinking about expanding into Europe may be thinking about fresh books that might simplify your accounting and free up enough of your finances to help you do that little push you need I don't know what market you might be in that that would be applicable to but it might make sense hell of a segue yeah it was fantastic if you do I know one thing that's really applicable to our audience is people who might be doing like little tech things on the side like I know a lot like Linus and I and most people that I know that are really into computers at one point in time really early on in their life they were like the person that all their friends knew that fixed and built and repaired and maintained all the computers around and you can turn that into a business I did it for a few little shops there for a while and whatnot I even had like an official company name and all that kind of stuff and if you really don't want to like manage invoices manage expenses make sure people are paying you if you have like if you're not doing like cash deal under the table every single time if you wanna be a little bit more legit you want to allow people to take time to pay for stuff you can do that with fresh books which is great you can create invoices super fast you can check if people have seen them you can manage all your expenses which for me is a big deal because I hate doing little micro paperwork things it's one of my biggest pet peeves oh yeah it just feels like a waste of time all the time and then I'll put it off for way too long so yeah it's helpful fresh books super cool check masks right here and yeah put when and the how did you hear about a section and use offer code win and go to fresh books calm sasha win and everything everything we're working on getting the /na implemented but it's not there yet so for now it's lifetime yeah you know yeah okay Lance isn't content Oh make it yeah he's not coming let's do it so we'll put him in the thumbnail though still you know get more views that way I wanted to do when we both did we both did this like weird arm thing at one point in time and I was gonna use that all and we're talking with boss dynamics maybe that was it I don't remember I just remember being like I have to mentally log that I was like somewhere around three quarters to show where is it kendo shares new details about its Nintendo switch online service which is going to launch this September so cool it's kind of good it's kind of bad the reason why I'm gonna say it's kind of bad is because as you may or may not know the online right now is that no cost and this will make it so the online is at a cost and what might that cost be we haven't written down here we do a year for 25 bucks $24.99 so just just about two bucks a month for an individual okay that's Canadian pricing yes u.s. pricing is 20 bucks so you at u.s. pricing for one year is 20 bucks u.s. pricing for three months is 8 bucks and us pricing for one month is 4 bucks but Canadian it is 25 10 and 5 respectively there's also family membership pricing so that covers 8 people and they can even be on different Nintendo systems and that in Canadian is 45 bucks a year and 35 in American so if there's a way to use that with just you and seven friends that you're not actually related to you might be able to that would be sweet to be really cheap people do that all the time with Spotify in and Shahnaz right yes oh my kind of stuff I am totally not on Linus's family plan for something similar to that what can it do well it gives you a few things it includes some nest games like ice climber Legend of Zelda balloon fight soccer tennis Mario I love when games used to be able to be just called soccer or tennis yeah Mario Bros Super Mario Bros dr. Mario Super Mario Bros 3 and Donkey Kong and 10 more will also launch with the service will be allows announced at a later date so that is completely novel that's totally new for those games there's never before been online play with those games is that correct that's what I understood any of that well okay so with emulators you could wear yeah well you could Co Angele than anything yeah but so any that originally supported multiplayer will still support multiplayer and will support online multiplayer which is cool because it'll be like a really easy way to do so doing online co-op with emulators has always been a little jank but doable I don't think it's very known if you cancel your subscription if you'll still have access to those games but I doubt it back to the multiplayer thing that's definitely new it's what I've got written here is depending on the game players can engage in online competitive co-op or multiplayer or this is probably new for all of them take turns controlling the action yes so this was this was something that I I noticed as well which is really cool where I think they call it like past the controller yeah it says friends can even watch each other play single-player games and past the controller at any time so you can watch your friend play a game through the switch that's that's a cool idea because I think with twitch we've we've like sort of lost something which is like I was playing a game with a friend the other day and we both stream on Twitch but we didn't want to stream at that point in time and I commented where like I I wish I could see your screen right now because like I was I was dead in a match and there's no spectate yeah yes I was like I wish you were like streaming but I guess just to me what if and that's like not super a thing do you think when once you pass the controller you still have control of where the controller goes or do you think if I pass this throw I pass it to you yeah I want to be able to yank it cuz imagine how fun that would be if you're watching ninja or you're watching your favorite streamer and they're like hey I'm going to the bathroom and then they just pass their controller to some random person in the stream and but it's just like 2 million people get to watch them play switch games yeah yeah that would be pretty sweet that'd be really sick actually I don't think it'll work in that way but if I remember quickly mixer does that Microsoft streaming service so you can do stuff like that but I could be super extremely off base there I know there's some form of thing that can work that way but it might have been a specific game that someone happened to be playing on mixer it could be completely unrelated I don't know but I think that idea is super cool I like the idea of sharing the controller too so like if you're like dude look I'm so stuck on this freaking boss oh yeah then you like play the boss for a while and he's like yeah give me a shot you just like pass the controller over and you said what about a new form of smurfing you're like yeah 1v1 me and then there's like someone spectating you're like send it across there it is there's the thumb you're alive that's the end of the show we're gonna stop now behind the night oh it's technically not if you don't want it to be we went live a little late oh okay can I come in into a topic yeah sure all right I'll go homes you can't take these though thank you for keeping my seat warm hi oh that is a warm seat you could say it's a warm ass seat oh my cuz it's an a/c so do I get one of these shirts yeah you can have one if you want it nice how much the creaks I designed it myself it's good cute I like thank you I like the show - I wanted to say when I first saw this in person Riley even asked me about it he's like so what do you think of this said I was like but it looks really good on camera cool good did Wylie jump on the show at all no wait oh oh I kind of thought he was gonna into to come in and sort of talk about working here and stuff he may have been he can take me out okay oh okay James is his bride well then okay bye James and Riley but uh do we have do we have any cool topics to talk about uh we tried to leave some for you and then you didn't show I was I was busy I was busy running a laptop at five gigahertz oh okay is it ridiculous or is it reasonable oh-ho it's not reasonable okay witness do you want any spoilers is it the two big it is it involves server fans oh no I'm okay you got to do a follow-up video where you going to use it in public it's all me how people react it involves an external variable voltage power supply that's about this big totally Youssou perfect it's louder than a hairdryer totally I would love to I would watch that video oh man you got to name it I'm and like bring the it back by like using the blah in public it's terrible um we haven't talked about have we talked about renting out your graphics card for dining we left that let's do that okay so the original article here is from TechRadar and it was posted by apparently no one on the forum apparently on it Morgan MLG man a German company has announced games from space which borrows your GPU for cryptocurrency mining purposes and then gives you free PC games in return so you pick any game you want watch a progress bar slowly tick up as your GPU is used for the companies mining efforts the faster your graphics card the quicker the process towards getting a new game so here's a really important thing to point out games that you pay for on your electricity bill are not free yeah which I think a lot of kids are gonna think they are this is totally going to be kids using their computers to screw over their parents yeah or people in dorms or whatever else so it's I will give games from space credit for being devious enough to figure out one of the biggest challenges of cryptocurrency mining and that is power and actually cooling as well so by distributing the computing around the globe it's effectively kind of not their problem and everyone who's running on their network of computers is going to be contributing such a small amount to it that it's it's not really going to be like it's not gonna be noticeable some of the games are actually newer big-name Affairs like pub G or Grand Theft Auto 5 so with a gtx 1070 either of those would take you about a month of mining you can get directly in a day apparently now obviously you won't be able to mine while you are actually playing games and from my experience with software like nice hash it might not necessarily cooperate that well when you launch applications that want the GPU back like i've that was actually why I stopped running folding on my gaming system because I was running into weird issues even if folding at home was technically getting the GPU back yeah yeah I was still not not running correctly so I would I would watch out for the same problems that are I would watch out for pretty much everything about this what else we got yeah so there's there was a few topics where we did that Qualcomm is finally making a SmartWatch chip so this was originally posted by Edward the we've on the forum hey James didn't tell you you're not getting a ride and that you can't come and say hi okay well let's just burn through this really quickly and then you guys can ask Riley some questions and twitch at that sound pretty good yeah okay so frotcom is making a Smart Watch chip hey best watches that come out today have a little option but to use Paul comm Snapdragon where 100 from February 2016 some have argued this is holding the entire where OS platform back it is pretty slow Qualcomm has announced a watch focused silicon this fall alongside a flagship device with several partners set to release where OS watches based on the new chips by the holidays the third generation processors will be designed from the ground up for a no compromises SmartWatch experience so a better battery life smaller watches apparently designing the chips to work more effectively with always-on displays and a SmartWatch is first and foremost a watch it needs to look good it needs to be sleek it needs to look good when I'm looking at it these are all just looking good this is a quote nothing to do why would you say that yeah has nothing to do the chip alright thank you very MUC slow SmartWatch probably related to that last one okay I'm sorry are you okay nine inch nails to fight ticket BOTS by not selling tickets online yeah we already covered that Wow all right I covered that one because James thought you wouldn't want to talk about it so this guy works here now I didn't want to I didn't want to make you stop doing the actual news part well no that's okay we have a new news show that's true no but a lot of people are concerned they're like don't stop doing the wine show it's not gonna stop so we're just Sur completely of Central Park but he misspelled the misspelling why he did central prac it's a meme for the people you can your own that's fine central repair it's Riley yes this is I'm having a hard time with his mic in the middle yeah you know what why don't you no no I'll take a back seat I'm just a boy the last time I was on this show I was a guest so what says are you only hosting shows are you doing other things at LG as well I'm writing what's the set there on the camera over there you gestured over here yeah I guess well I didn't build the set I mean I sort of did a bunch of people built it I've been working on this that's like mud I've been credit man can I say that yeah I've been here for like a month and I've just been building the set and doing a bunch of stuff with a Vaughn and and adds all yeah it was it was hard work guys but I'm here Everett asked were you okay when NCIX went bankrupt was i okay yeah actually where are you going all right yeah I was gone by the time they had gone bankrupt I had left and started with secret informants sorry no well it's fine now okay you can talk about Seger for me yeah so I went to do that and then I was doing that for a while and then we started talking yes we did so what's that was born he's asking someone's asking a blind Hewett is asking you specifically if I'm a sister who was right well you know I've only been here for me I can't tell yet if I no matter how I answer that question I feel like it's gonna seem insincere lice is a great boss no lice is a terrible boss do you know they both sound like lies is the show still a work in progress kinda seems coupled together it's it's it's definitely a work in progress still we're still like tweaking stuff you said that on social media the other day so like if you guys have suggestions for how to change it definitely let us know we will read them in we will take them into account yeah it has its own Twitter handle what is it add tech linked YT or I think it's that too I think it's that time I just like tech late maggio Sarah says please salty sure with that exact design yeah we're doing I think that's the plan it's actually right now yeah yeah yes up really fast yeah you got to go to the LTTE merch store because tech linked is still too bitch mode to have its own merch store so it's no longer like Linus and I make a meme on when and then four months later we have a shirt yeah fast now memes to turn into t-shirts immediately yeah yeah we actually have a dedicated graphic designer so there's there's been honestly there's been so many moving parts getting this show started getting him in here getting all the design work done getting the set built all the negotiations I really wish I could tell you know most of the story behind the the NCIX tech tips acquisition effort right yes okay that is now under NDA just so you know but it's too long of a story to tell anyways 10 out of 10 how out of 10 how crazy is it I mean it's insane I had no when we were when we filmed the when we filmed the announcement video when we filmed the announcement video I wrote the skit and then I wrote the out the the end part and I'm like okay line is fill in the NCIX story and I thought it was gonna be like a couple paragraphs or something it's like an essay pages long or something I was like what you can't do that and then he's like no we're doing the whole thing stinky Pete said great to see you are you continuing the ncx persona ie quick bits or are you trying to differentiate the show from the past I mean Central Park survived so why don't know what else to call it call quick bids if not quick bids rapid small portion yes rapid-fire small portion new steroids bits no I don't know if you guys I mean we there are some other names already but it's supposed to be a spiritual successor yes so like we adds I saw some people leaving comments like wow you guys really captured the essence of NIT linked and I'm kind of sitting there going well oh crap we've got the same host and writing staff we've got the same other host and sort of troll and you know only captured the hazards how did you do that how'd you make sure it was so true to the original the original basically the original what does Central Park mean I just feel like it's just kind of a long story so it's kind of a lengthy it's an inside joke originated on Flight of the Conchords with me and my friend said all the time and then I started saying it on net like daily and yeah actually it won't I know I did well I was just like can I do it can i I guess I did apparently quick bits during through so it said you will do you said you will do oh not only tech but until now it's only been tech what's going on I will not do only tech wear because it's at stem news I remember that from the video oh yeah so that's more of a bet hedging yeah strategy you know like if if there if some kind of like biomedical thing comes out we don't want to end up in a stupid argument with people in the comments that that's not tech because when you come when it comes down to it everything is tech the wheel is tech it's yes I'm a contrarian so that was actually a change that I made to the script where I kind of went look let's not paint ourselves into a box you know it's about stem that way it can be about basically everything if someone finds a new prime number we can talk about it games doesn't really fit in there though Oh what if we say it stems stemming gaming stigma this new stems from what do you hope to learn or improve working with Linus speaking of I've already learned to kind of like fly by the seat of my pants as in like do it now do something get it done you know yeah you came in on your first day didn't have an email address didn't have like any passwords for anything didn't actually have an assignment cuz yeah basically we had put we put the whole thing off for so long like we were split Reilly's start date was supposed to be like many weeks ago I think I think I was looking at the emails and they started like February or March yeah yeah and so what happened was we kept thinking we were gonna get the channel and then we were like okay here's your start date and then we were like oh we weren't gonna get it but we were just gonna start our own channel like and you were like just stay tuned I've got I'll get you an update and I'm just like okay cool you're like okay yeah now this happened the amount of people that got chat banned immediately after you made that joke was insane there's like a whole block it's above this but just like oh yeah anyway so so there was a whole thing where we were just like okay screw it we've got some pre-show preparation to do like a set and you know figuring out branding and all this stuff Riley can help with that let's just get him in here and and honestly was it is a good move was actually next idea because it really put the pressure on me to start making videos with this person that I'm paying we hired a writer and host to build a set maybe not I did learn a lot of my management strategies from NCIX so okay I'm hearing it was like coming home people are asking will you do man show too well well I do n show too I mean I guess that's up to you guys I don't know we actually haven't really decided um how we're gonna best utilize why they think I'm screwing it up right now so if you're taking that as an example yeah I mean we we brought him in as someone who's multi-talented like somewhat something that some people wouldn't know is he was basically running the entire NCIX channel by himself by the end of it and like arguably it wasn't its finest you know moment but rude literally by himself writing filming editing hosting action actually posting it to YouTube answering comments about yo guys what's going on with my order what is that whole place imploding what's going on in the comments like so so we brought Miley in knowing that we wanted to bring back a spiritual successor to net linked knowing that the best way to do that would be to like bring back the the sort of tag team that I think nothing against anyone else who ever worked on that linked but the tag team that I think refined the net linked format made it what it was and was kind of the Golden Age of net linked in terms of audience reception in terms of viewership yeah well originally cuz net linked was net linked weekly that you know on the NZXT channel it was like a longer show and it wasn't really I guess you guys edited it a bit but like no that was before I came Lodge yeah and then when we came on we wanted or like a we're gonna make it a daily show and then like and then you guys took it totally cereal and then I came in when I was like a contract yeah I don't really care anymore that was that whole casual feel of net linked was not manufactured it was because I actually didn't give any cares I would roll in on a Friday that's definitely the feeling I guess like 30 we bang out all the videos that had to be done for that week like for one and then I'd be like yeah it's 2 o'clock boom see ya you're out of there um and I'd come back here in host when show often late yeah yeah and then where we were kind of like hey - so we wrote this funny bit could you put the hat on and like do the voice for the thing and he's like no I'm doing this boom that's not that's okay I get stuff wrong right like I'd read the script wrong but I would just like keep going through it because I was in a hurry yeah and that was where that kind of stuff and people liked it mm-hmm so yelling at people from off-screen and stuff yeah that was all that was actually the only feedback that I gave them on their writing hmm was during the show that was a stupid bit don't do it okay what's an excellent so so so the goal was to that seemed like the best way to I don't forget where I was going with this but it seemed like the best way to to make this happen was to bring back sort of what I see is sort of the heart and soul of it and then just inject it into something new and I forget what the point of getting there was no take a few different questions and lump them into one yeah how do you guys expect the channel to perform some people are asking comparatively to tech wiki they don't really think that's super relevant but like the like how do you expect the growth of the channel to go I feel like I'm a bad person to answer that question you guys know so much about okay I think this is general too so my expectation for the channel was there are not my expectation my goal was as sort of a salty well sort of thing my goal was for tech linked to basically immediately have as good or better viewership than the latter episodes of tech linked among the NCI XCOM channel anything beyond that I consider to be a smashing success and as for the sales team anything above a hundred thousand views a video should be quite easy for them to bring in sponsors for if they can bring sponsors on a consistent basis we will we will comfortably cover Riley's right Lee's cost and the extra editing forces that we need and Abimelech we don't do free lunch here but good try so as long as we can bring sponsors and we will comfortably cover our overhead is basically where I was going with that even even like the square footage the equipment like all those things that you have to factor into the cost of the show and I mean if your standard was that they outperform like the later episodes of now linked it's already done that so yeah I think there's a bit of a honeymoon period going on right now though well but it could continue forever perfectly continue forever perfectly I mean honestly I think we're gonna get there I think I think that not I think we've actually gotten a lot of feedback already from community members saying there really was a gap there net linked had a purpose this this SourceFed style tech leaders thing was gonna surprise when we stopped and people are like there's no other like really quick like tech news shows about like you know cetera got like PC stuff and there isn't a lot of people are trying to hit the 10-minute minimum middle and stuff yeah but we're not interested in that we've never cared about the 10-minute minimum a lot of people we've released videos that are ten minutes and one second or whatever a lot of people are like aha in the comments gotcha and I'm kind of sitting there going or you you don't understand how this works the ten minute mark is only important if you run a mid-roll ad sense spot and we and we don't it doesn't matter oh you're right is leaving I believe you can go thank you for joining us thanks for having me yeah this is cool it's been fun I remember where I was going with that he's very multi-talented so we brought him in knowing that he was multi-talented thinking that we would just find we'd find like a natural on camera everything that you need to do on like a set thank you thank you so right now his time is not completely occupied just by writing tech linked and hosting it and in some cases he won't even be hosting it it's only a three times a week show and I'll probably be hosting somewhere between a third and a half of them Riley will be doing between a third and half of them and we might have other people jump in James has expressed interest colton has expressed interest and we'd like to have it actually be quite quite diverse maybe even Luke would come back and host especially it on certain topics so so yeah so so so I have two things in the chat that I'm gonna pull from archival stuff one someone was like oh my god Luke is back that's confusing I've been here the whole time pretty much the other one was is Riley Luke's replacement that's been asked a whole bunch of times um so right now in terms of actual hosting on LTTE I am on the fence you will see Luke hosts another LTT before you will see Riley in fact how's that going good it keeps changing right I can probably just talk about it yeah sure yeah so I'm doing Nintendo lab oh but I've changed how I wanted to review it a couple times I don't think I haven't seen a single review but online that I think this is gonna throw some shade has done a very good job because I agree and because of that I'm now like okay that's a lot of pressure because I'm thinking no one's get done a very good job of covering it so now I need to not screw up you've been in that position before and I think I'm trying to think of an example we were really late on was it the rift we were really late on something that you like cared about a lot might have been vine I think it was one of those it was what it was it was our headset I think yeah and basically I think we talked about it and we were like okay well then in that case yeah I think I'm okay I'm remembering this even better now I remember talking about it and you were like this is gonna take a long time and so I took on so we're sort of some more quick yeah quick videos to fill in the gaps cuz I think you spent like almost an entire week on it yeah so it's been a little bit hard because this week we've been we've been pushing for v1 which won't mean anything to you guys also I'm hiring problems while I was yeah also I'm hiring for full plant so I've been going through resumes and stuff also been trying to do this lab Oh thing and I was like I'll be done early in the week and then I was like done most my notes and I was like it's been out for a while let me watch some reviews and see what's going on and I was like oh okay alright this changes things because when like when everyone else's stuff is like again I'm pretty certain it's really surface level and really missing the point in my opinion for most people it's it's yeah I have to take it to the next level I think so yeah I should be ready relatively soon I'm expecting next week so I'm traveling for like the next two and a half weeks or something like that Oh have we told people that scrap care dwarfs season sevens coming no I don't think so we are shooting we actually have a shoot date yeah we have a sponsor locked in finally we've got a shoot date it's going to should we should we tell them the the the challenge I mean I don't know it let's do top my head I've been actually been emailed it I just don't remember sure okay yeah yeah so it's gonna be a classic head-to-head me versus Luke no teams no gimmicks except for one gimmick neither of us gets an internet capable device oh I remember that oh I remember that oh that's so sketch okay okay okay previous seasons we've been heavily reliant on Craigslist hardcore or like buy and sell trade apps is it still possible to build a decent gaming rig what other rules are we including I don't know we're gonna have to kind of we'll have to hash that out between because I'm assuming like the one the like ace in the hole is not allowed I don't remember name yeah you can't go too freaky yeah yeah no no no or like and we're also getting rid of free geek for similar situations um I think if I both do no research which is what I've done and we don't look them up online I don't know any I don't know any either so we I think they're fair game at that point go to the library and get a phone book I wouldn't give me any ideas if I were you alright so we're gonna keep to ourselves what our ideas might be for dots this is gonna be really hard okay yeah that's gonna be interesting luckily the the one thing I was actually really worried about for this coming scrap red horse was GPU prices it looks like that's all results coming back down yeah I think we dodged that bullet because that was like actually gonna make it impossible or stupid they were gonna be the crappiest scrapyard water species yet yeah we would have had or do like the like student computer CPU benchmarks only Nina and 262 in the chat sorry just blowing the dust off my local computer store yeah exactly man this is gonna be pretty dumb yeah alright well I think that's pretty much it for wine show thank you guys for tuning in see you again next week same bat-time same bat-channel bye oh we should we should let people weigh in on whether they want the win show to stay here with the white orange and white or if we want to move over to the hex wall yeah we haven't painted the hex file yet though I think right now there's like a lighting problem or something oh yeah it's it's Garbo it needs to it just needs to be it needs a light on the floor you've been like your face and we're also gonna have some shelves here yeah there's gonna be some stuff there like yeah there's some there's some show me straw for right now looks like people are staring hex wall but they're also getting banned oh no I know we can ask them next week am I even here next week hex wall will be really dark yeah that's something to consider well we're gonna be paint it red white and blue okay not like America style red white and blue like I forget how we're planning to do it like white background and then like red and blue hexes or something good but like bright ones I think what we should do is on the win show have a screenshot of here and there and like both of them on screen yeah I'm gonna be like pick one we could do that all right CEO okay bye I just realized I'm sitting on the wrong side yeah
