RYZEN 3000 IS UNBELIEVABLE - The WAN Show Dec 7 2018

2018-12-07
when show yet this week okay and also rise in 3000 so to talk to topics that you care about we're also gonna discuss YouTube rewind I only made it about halfway through so really it might have gotten a lot better towards the end okay I kind of suspect it didn't i'll wait we'll get into that later and finally csgo is now free and also gets a battle royale mode because every gaming I don't know I'm refused to talk about that as a prime player you know no you're baiting me I said I wasn't going to talk about this as a prime player you can just not know dude against Yahoo are not prime players I want to talk about oh okay no I want to start with the really important stuff so yeah Luke and I had a meeting today no boy we are gonna be make oh well today is actually like kind of the team announcement Juancho you know I'm so excited for one of them it's gonna be love incredible okay so first of all good shirt choice by the way floatplane Thank You flow plane has some big milestones coming up yeah which none of the team knows about at the end of this year yeah so it's gonna be actually pretty freakin awesome yeah and one of the things that's gonna happen before then is live streaming support with chat and all that cool stuff is dropping very very soon so you can expect if you're a floatplane member you are going to be simultaneously multi casting we are gonna be simultaneously multi casting to youtube 22 and floatplane calm next Friday yeah so that's gonna happen exciting I can't promise special treatment for the floatplane chat and in other news YouTube rewind dropped yesterday yeah yeah okay so yeah why did you only make it halfway okay sorry one of the faux play guys just said a inside joke and that caught me off guard so why did you only make it halfway through okay so here's that they have a confession to make I've never made it no I did I think the year pewdie be PewDiePie became number one I might have made it all the way through because I remember seeing the bit at the end with him like walking on the beach or something is that exactly I thought it I don't know if it ends that way your start so that he like picks up the play button on the beach oh crap maybe that was the start it was good okay so hold on a second so I have to confess that I don't think I have ever made it all the way through a rewind because I don't really watch YouTube so for me it's kind of like this parade of people that I don't know who the heck they are well I think that's the problem right now so that was one key difference this year is I knew who marques was yeah I knew who arms he's amazing um have you watched his this is totally off topic have you watched his camera phone comparison oh the bracket that he's doing well I don't really watch YouTube but I'm aware that he's doing it it's done it's up oh okay yeah it's actually really interesting okay good you should watch it okay all right well like skip to the end bracket I'll skim through it okay yeah that's like the most that's a compliment like he's he doesn't watch the fact that he's gonna skim through it and like actually enough information like that's not that's not that's not a side against the video that's that's pretty good I recognize rob technical guru ji I recognized yeah like I don't know for like three seconds yes cuz I didn't see he's like on the island and he's like oh I think we should acknowledge people who like jumping different people yeah okay and then I recognized Emma Chamberlain who I'm only aware of because I was reading an article on something about something and somehow I ended up looking at the streamys Awards and she was the breakout creator and then I spent actually probably about an hour and a half on her channel trying to get it and what I realized is that I still don't really get it and I'm probably not gonna start watching YouTube anytime soon anyway so other than that I didn't really know who anybody was I think okay so I think that's a big problem with YouTube rewind so back in like 2012-2013 when do we get that oh yeah yeah yeah 2012 YouTube rewinds like I think okay 2011 2010 they had a 2010 I don't know when they actually started it but they called this was called YouTube rewind year in reviews so over 250 million views combined and it's like kind of a clip show from your TV screen it has like all of that guys awesome the Old Spice commercial go oh it's got a bunch of Twilight on it there's a crying child yeah so this is like pretty low grade compared to what they but like if you notice that it's big goes back that far did you not screen shine by the way so I know we can do this one one thing you'll notice from this rewind is it's showing things that happened that mattered that got a lot of use of the year and Neri wines are just powered by YouTube trends as opposed to powered by YouTube arbitrary yeah and and new rewinds are here's a bunch of people doing completely intensely unrelated things for the most part or like vague for trait for tonight fork knife that was not that was not very noted the beginning like this none of it none of it matters none of it actually represented like impactful things for the year there was no T series there was no yeah year review there was none of that kind of stuff how was T series not even if you don't include PT bag is the stuff that's happened with him and whatever whatever that's a totally different conversation well how was T series not a part of that yeah that what like like it's very it's very it's very cleaned off like Google is pushing hard into India don't imagine for a second that any of this T series and rising in prominence of Indian channels don't imagine for a second any of this is a random accident like Google is pushing really hard they're pushing on Chrome they're pushing on Android they're pushing on YouTube they are pushing into India okay so some people are saying the PewDiePie dramas for teenagers we're saying completely regardless of the Pipers fact that it's happening t series is still massive and they're huge the Indian YouTube is exploding and he's like fortnight not for teenagers I mean it featured very prominently in the rewind and as far as I could I mean I went to the Halloween store and there were fortnight costumes they didn't have adult sizes I'm thinking they probably know their demographic yeah this man shows gotten real uncomfortable i-i-i think I think with rewind they're trying to make it extremely advertiser friendly yeah and they're trying to bring in safe acts and for some reason they're no longer trying to just show really cool or important or high view things that happen throughout the year they're just trying to take people that are advertiser friendly and put them across like I love that mark has had a speaking part that's not cool but I almost would have liked it better if he was just like sitting on one of the seats on the bus like talking about his phone and like showing it to someone as they had panned along it like I loved that he had a speaking part but it felt off-topic or if he had a speaking part I would have liked for it too because if you don't yeah you won't have any idea from watching rewind another thing in my opinion if they're gonna do it this way yeah I disagree with but if they're gonna do it this way where they're just like scattershot popular people that are brand friendly into the video yeah they should have little things I think this is this person yeah as you watch the thing and you're like who are all these people and maybe the persons on there for 60 frames like you barely see them and that's but that's where I think the context comes in as well because at least that yeah that would help that would help it's like it's kind of like does anyone remember when you're a kid right and you're in the grocery store with your parents and like one of your teachers is standing there like comparing you know the quality of like apples or whatever you're like you exist in real life mrs. Fraser yes stops at the grocery store because when you see somebody outside of the normal context that you expect to see them in it's very easy to not recognize them in this case people that you know in real life yeah like if I ran into you know I'm not gonna pick someone that I work with everyday like if I ran into Luke on the street obviously I'm gonna okay even though we ran into each other on the street okay oh wait I'm gonna use the story for this I ran into Dmitry in Germany okay I had no idea Dmitry was hard right connects yeah for contact I had no idea he was in Germany sure he had no idea I was in Germany we walked past each other randomly on the street and it takes a second cuz you're like this doesn't make any sense at all right like it what like I totally knew who he was but I was like is this a doppelganger like what's it's it's a weird moment it's very jarring see were like what yeah that happens that's pretty yeah so this was a long time I don't know I only made it about halfway through just because like it's it's not really it's kind of the same reason that I don't watch like the Grammys and the Oscars because a lot of the time it's movies and songs movies I haven't seen songs I haven't heard and people who I I don't really know who they are like there's a handful of like very famous actors and or musicians musicians in particular I don't watch music videos it's not like like I have an objection to them or anything I just when I listen to music it's usually when I'm doing something else and that doing something else isn't staring straight ahead at the screen watching the video that goes with it it's like something actually totally unrelated so so I actually a lot of the time I don't recognize musicians yeah and so I just like I just don't find it that interesting I don't really follow the storylines like I don't really pay attention to celebrity gossip or anything like that so it's just not really interesting for me to just see a parade of people that I don't really know who the crap they are or why I did yeah like I liked seeing marques cuz it was cool having someone featured really prominently that's in our community yeah and it was really funny to see that PD PI's chair made it in but he didn't that was really entertaining one of the animators that was featured yeah I do like the chair doing this but no it's just it's them like moving in a room like going from the camera be like hey and then like moving away and it's all animated it's a little cartoon yeah but the chair that they're in is very clearly PewDiePie's like clutch chair with the like swirly red and black design cottage it's hey it's kind of a interesting color that happened there all right the last day says can you guys talk about something that matters like yeah fact that Jesus is coming back very soon and the whole world is going to suffer judgment all right so let's move on then from that topic and let's move on to the big announcement for this man show oh oh my goodness I'm actually so excited the actual big announcement well it's funny we have made it twenty minutes into the wine show and I have not even opened up the topics dock yet that may be a new record I'm extremely like I might be more excited than the people in the audience okay about this LTX 2019 the details are somewhat coming together mmm okay first of all mark your calendars now July 27th and 28th two days whoa what two days two days well hold on a second surely they're gonna kick us out of the venue overnight right wait what wrong I'm so excited LTX 2019 is going to be bigger badder and better than ever two days oh my god with an overnight land party oh my god powered by our partner for the event Dreamhack yeah so we have been working on this with them since basically oh man the end of LTX 2018 when we went you know what we did a lot of stuff that was better than last year but there is still a ton of room for improvement here so cool I can't give you guys but but basically we were like yeah we need to take it up a significant notch it's as long as to be more than a fan meetup which it has done a great job of being but last year we had other creators there like coming out and crawling out of the woodwork know it Steve from gamers Nexus we had Jays $0.02 we had Barnett Cleese there we had Lewis Rossmann there and we're kind of looking at this going we'll hold on a second those guys came they had fun all of them and I you know I'm not gonna put words in their mouths but all of them expressed interest and at least may be participating in 2019 so we're looking at it going like hey well we need to like if we're gonna have like gonna step it up big creators coming in and like being sort of part of this experience we need like a creator meetup space and we need like we need better food options and we need we need a bigger space so guess what we got a bigger space we are stepping it up we're moving into the big time so the original plan was to take I think it was a couple of the couple of the ballrooms or a couple of them like three of the meeting rooms and then one of the ballrooms or something like that in the East Building of the Vancouver Convention Center so we actually we went even further than that not a hockey rink this and with nope with no plan really for exactly how we're gonna fill it other than that we're just gonna take a lot of what we've done a lot of new ideas from the community oh they're getting so much food space so we're making every booth bigger good every booth better and we are gonna have something to the tune of like 30,000 square feet or something ridiculous like that is going to be a gigantic space I think I can say that we are going to have you know what I'm gonna I'm gonna check what is in the blog because we have actually added a blog to the LTX LTX Expo com oh hold on just a minute here no you shown the dock site yeah that's fine but it really matters you put Oh have we not have we not done it yet oh right December 7 wow this is this is a really great website very broken there we go LTX 2019 and dreamhack coming to Vancouver so cool page could be better but don't worry we're making word we don't have time to make the this this thing good huge partnership thrilled to be partnering the three okay well man I kind of you know I'm gonna I'm gonna jump the gun a little bit there's gonna be a BYOC so but we're partner with tree I thought that was like a given well they do other things okay okay so there's gonna be a BYOC line how many seats can we say I know but we can't say okay okay because you never know there could be like a slight seating rearrangement or its power constraint restrictions or whatever sure you never know you never know there's still a lot is that makes sense but we have paid the deposit on the Vancouver Convention Center oh it will be in the Vancouver Convention Center so there will be way better access to hotels and transportation you can take the SkyTrain there tons of food like better packs west yeah furred as far as I can tell my entire life I think the next one will be by like 12th or 13th event I lost track somewhere along the line I'm really excited I'm potentially I'm I'm willing to say I'm more excited about this event then than packs which is like that's a very hard thing for me to say you're kind of a pack Sandlin I am crying you're being honest yeah yeah but like LTX is legitimately and I'm I'm not even technically a part Alliance before you group anymore so I have no real technical incentives to even say this LTX is doing everything that I think they should do burning with Dreamhack is a really good idea making the event two days is a really good idea a lot of people are flying in flying in for one like eight ish hours yeah we always knew it was just and there's growing news and the costs and this year quite honestly what okay so this is the biggest BSR ever know the directive to Colton so the directive to Colton previously was break even right on the event we didn't expect it to make money but we didn't really want to lose a bunch of money the directive this year is look- Media Group and - tech tips doesn't really do a ton of marketing and quite frankly a ton of community engagement yeah so this this is our community engagement budget for the year blow it blow it all oh yeah so we are already it's gonna be so cool we're already engaging with like actual professional booth building and designing companies I can't promise we'll use them but people at least get some inspiration we we really really want to take it to to a completely different I think the thing is there's there's I can't really think of any conventions at least in North America that are hard we're focused not that there won't be games there but it's hard we're focused about community event and their taxes definitely might be games there yeah taxes become less and less Hardware focused over time yeah they've been more and more gaming and it's more and more like giant triple-a companies it's not as like smaller company it's much less hands-on we're aware of the Indies own yeah but okay if if I'm not promising anything thank you if we had any indie developers show up show up to you know show off their wares at LTX 2019 there would be a hard and fast rule that you have to have a booth that doesn't suck and I get it you're an indie developer and it's hard we would be happy to help but you can't just have a table with like a vinyl banner behind you and like I did I hate to stereotype but like to nerdy guys sitting there at the desk with some business card no it has to be playable it has to be cool it has to be like it has to not suck yeah I'm asking yeah so it's just I'm I'm inked extremely intrinsically excited about this LTX I think the the main things I wanted improved is like the lines were crazy and and the main stage was okay so VR has what three headsets so we figure the minimum for this coming year is somewhere between 15 and 20 yeah like dice insane and goof makes ahem we just kind of like we kind of like lay it out like so that you can make it somewhat space-efficient but like yeah we know absolutely we know we know we screwed up a lot of stuff last year screwed but had a lot of constructive criticism yeah but I don't think it's good it's our second convention it's not tannic on it's not like the whatever that tumblr convention was like it succeeded people were happy it's just growing pains and I'm just super excited for this year's upgrade it was thrilling to me that people showed up to LTX 2018 with like signed stuff from LTX 2017 wanting to get it like signed again like where where there's already that grassroots sort of movement to make this sort of worth migrating for and we know that Vancouver is not easy but that's one of the reasons that we're announcing it way earlier this time around you have literally seven months to get a passport or figure out time off or whatever else we're also doing it for two days so that it is somewhat justifiable to come up here Vancouver's a beautiful city give it a chance we're doing it in the summer for a couple of reasons number one is so that people aren't in school and remember that applies to both you know younger people and older people who are also in school so we're doing it in june/july so that people aren't in school we're also doing it in July because the weather tends to be absolutely fantastic here in July if you're into hiking if you're into food Vancouver is a great place to go for food whether you I mean pretty much Richmond I get so spoiled because living in Vancouver I'll whether I'm travel to Asia or the US or like pretty much anywhere it's like yeah foods great but like honestly it's not that different from if I just go to have like shop yeah there's probably shop not that far away that happens essentially exactly Chinese food Japanese food Dennis said by the list in Chinese food is better here like okay I could get on I could get into a whole thing about sort of like quality yeah enough time in Asia for like people talk about yeah foods cheap in Asia I'm like okay there's a difference between food being cheap and cheap food being cheap I had the most horrifying hamburger and I know that's what I get for ordering hamburger but I had just about the most horrifying hamburger and like Brunei or something stupid like that it was like look it was a moment of weakness it was like halfway through my trip it was the trip from hell we had to six month old infants with us like we were there because someone in the family was dying turns out they weren't dying he's still alive not was like four years ago anyway look the point is like it was the worst and and and and even the more authentic things because it's the entire rest of the trip I had to eat more authentic stuff because I was with my life and all of her family and we weren't gonna go to like like the white people friendly place because of the 1y actually there were two white guys there me and my brother-in-law and anyway we weren't gonna go there just because of us we were like okay we're gonna make the best of it and I was I was actually far less open-minded about authentic food at that point it was it was it was rough so and and everything else honestly was not great either I was like ya know I can understand why this doesn't cost very much because it's like very low-grade and that yeah fine some stuff is really good some stuff is really good there were exceptions but food in Vancouver is great LTX so don't think of it as like you have to buy a plane ticket just to go to like a one-day convention because a it's two days now it's two days now and if it was overnight which is something conventions haven't done in a long time and it's actually really cool cuz that like three or four in the morning at a convention the whole vibe changes okay so to be clear the actual booths will not be open up it'll be the BYOC area yes I'm sure that's how it works everywhere that's completely fine but like the whole vibe of the convention changes it's really really cool I suggest trying to stay up for a while I don't know if I'm gonna be able to do it I probably will okay cuz like I'm gonna be on stage a lot but one should add a two even if you could and the night of the first day I got my Backstreet Boys concert I heard about that you're actually gonna leave LTX to go there look the concert was but wow they moved the date while TX on me I didn't have it Wow look I never saw them when they were relevant so Wow I want to see that look look look I'll be there all over in Bates has your name on all day during the day no I don't think it does does it oh I think isn't that for Linus tech tips which is technically like a it's more of a brand than my name it's at least two your phones two-thirds not my name you like to say your names on the building well I just that's like yeah that's just me like playing that you know asshat characters that I play but that's that's Luke Seeley anyways so I'll go for the concert and then what I may do is come back for a bit but I can't like stay up on me no you should sleep I like have to be on stage and like greeting things it will probably make the show better if you see but I I'm probably gonna buy a BYOC ticket anyway just so that hopefully I can get in and play some games and stuff oh right cuz ya know that make sense well no I could get a free ticket but for me it's just more the principle of the thing I'll just buy a ticket like there's gonna be a finite number of seats and so if I was like yeah you know I want a free ticket my brother wants a free ticket and all my staff need free tickets and it's like you know this is a partnership yeah we need to make sure that it makes sense for for Dreamhack and it makes sense for Lance Media Group because you know who knows you know what this kind of turns into or doesn't turn into this is I think pretty experimental for both of us yeah so yeah we're we're tournaments and stuff I think their approach is going to be relatively low-key this time okay I don't want to promise any I don't really like big professional tournaments I mean like are they gonna do like I really don't know I would love to like impromptu shoutcast a rocket League tournament guess I've actually done this before really yeah okay and I actually think I'm pretty decent at it for rocket League okay and that would be really fun well you know what Colton I think is watching land show because he sent me this really upset message I've been trying to fix the blog for an hour long so I'm sure he heard you say that Colton if you want any amount of free help or labor outside of standard hours I'm down to do whatever I will sacrifice my body to try to make LTX better one not even kidding one thing that might help us make LTX better is making sure that we get through our sponsors today because if we don't survive until you know the next LTX then that would be a shame and that would be a shame don't worry we're fine so first up is the elgato mini stream deck it allows you to concentrate on your stream instead of trying to memorize keyboard shortcuts or fussing around with the mouse why did they put it down there I didn't even know it was here I didn't know they set one of these up here this is awesome now I can switch to my screen you can smile back concerned it's not set up very broken well whatever it looks it does work because this is awesome so check this out every single one of the buttons is a little LCD display you can't see that at all so you can actually see me and Luke there you can see what it's supposed to be so you don't have to memorize anything and you can program them to do pretty much anything that you could want so you just click the button and whether you want to you know graphically excuse me whether you want to buddy help whether you want to like switch scenes in a stream or whether you want to execute a macro in Adobe Premiere which is what Taryn uses the two of them that he has at his desk for you can do it on the stream deck they're less than 100 bucks they're available for Mac or Windows and you can learn more at the link in know well they don't have it in our lower third but that's okay building fresh books fresh books is the super simple to use invoicing tool for small business owners and freelancers that does a lot more than just help you create and send slick looking invoices you can track your time with the tension manage your expenses that is such an inside joke at this point manage your expenses and keep track of who owes you what it also has a feature that tells you when your client looks at an invoice for the first time their mobile ad has all the functionality of the desktop version so you can take fresh books with you wherever you go and accounting can be confusing fresh books is all about helping with that it's about making it simple and if you have any questions you can reach out to their support staff where you will speak to a real human being no phone tree no escalations no return calls later just answers to help you out and as we learned in part one of our PC manufacturers trying to screw you or whatever we ended up calling that such a cool series just being able to talk to someone when you're frustrated can be can make all the difference so go to FreshBooks dot-com / win and enter when in the how did you hear about s section by the way part 2 is on on focalin already it has been part 3 is coming to floatplane on Tuesday as well I'm excited with the sweet sriracha barbecues but it's not a jerky yeah their goal is to make a tasty turkey without nitrates or preservatives that's not bad for you but it's still full of flavor and spice they've got 13 different flavors my favorite is the maple buffalo bacon original is great the what's the what's the green one mo huh yeah anything Moho is good they also make barbecue sauce hot sauce a spice rub their Carolina Reaper hot sauces uses one of the hottest peppers in the world the Carolina Reaper and you can use offer coat LTE to save 10% at savage jerky dot-com we'll have that linked below if you're watching the archive all right should we do some tech news we should probably talk about rising 3,000 hits ring that's the title okay correct so the original article is from reddit of all places that make sense there you go rise in 3000 will be on tsmc 7 nanometre hpc so basically horizon 1000 2000 were built on Samsungs 14 nanometer low-power process this was part of the reason that there was a 4 gigahertz hard cap on clock speed like verizon thread ripper they are not overclockable it's not that they're like hard to overclock they're just not really overclockable so because of this limit in terms of their frequency they had a really hard time making up any ground on Intel's processors particularly in gaming where single threaded high clock speed performance is key so then to is rumored to be made on TSM C's 7 nanometers high performance process this could give us a 13% boost in clocks compared to low powers 4.6 gigahertz putting rise in three thousand over five gigahertz along with this we are expecting a 15% IPC improvement along with eight cores per CC X which should mean less communication between the interconnects and faster memory so if you were to extrapolate a 15% IPC so that's instructions per clock uplift plus a 15% improvement in the raw clock speed that could be a 30% improvement in performance it is also sort of anticipated that the Spector meltdown foreshadow hardware fixes will hit Intel about 10% harder than Verizon meaning it could be possible that rise in 3000 could be 10% faster than core in single threaded workloads this is according to though reddit.com slash are slash AMD stock so take it with more salt that is was used to preserve this jerky yeah do I get a tech stock no there's you know the problems there oh yeah that's right yeah long story yeah long story actually yeah so no but like it's actually been pretty wild only take this for what it is the only times I have ever owned tech stock I owned like a couple thousand dollars of Nvidia probably pre LMG so this must have been about eight years ago or something like that and then I owned like I don't know five thousand dollars or something like that of OCZ shortly before they disappeared I was I was I got out okay yeah I got it nice all right I actually I made a little bit of money on that stock and it was like kind of thrilling and it was cool and I was like whoa I'm like playing the market um apparently you did okay with that if you got out before yeah I made money on in video as well hmm but I pulled out because well I'm okay I pulled out because I was like no I'm new to this you know I made some money okay I'm gonna like call that good yeah and then OCZ completely went supernova and I was like you know what eff this I'm out I don't invest so I didn't put any money back into in video which probably would've been a good idea they were around $17 at that time anyway I mean whatever it's all again then I got into LMG and it really seemed like a very obvious conflict of interest duh so anyway take this from people who are obsidian where we're sitting I have no ownership stake of any tech company actually I don't think I own any stocks at all right now yeah zero zero stocks and then do you own any no no okay what tech stocks would you buy hmm and remember okay we're not gonna be experts when it comes to you know the what is it the dead cat bounce or like whatever you know like like all that stocky yeah investment tee stuff I'm just talking as no amazement people over the next three to five years who do you expect to just kill it in terms of the actual tech which theoretically at some point although I can't quite find the correlation sometimes theoretically at some point should affect the stock price yeah I see okay that's actually one thing I was gonna bring up it's like I don't know what current speculation is so things that would be inflated I don't know if they are not but like if we completely ignore all of that I genuinely do think AMD would be a good position you think so yeah like long Andy yes short AMD is scary because they're like all over the place yeah yeah long AMD like just to be clear I track it just because I'm curious but they're there platform for CPUs right now is really strong and as we can see whether this rumor is true or not the fact that it's like that could be possible has a lot of potential in it and Intel is in a really bad spot they're kind of locked until looks good on paper because their revenue is great yeah they're forecasting might look pretty darn good but the problem is that and we talked about this a lot back when we talked about AMD launching their 32 core epic processors the long lead time on enterprise where from the inception of a project like a supercomputer to the actual putting of CPUs into sockets could be a year 18 months two years like in some cases you end up actually building a custom facility for the damn thing before you even actually cut a Pio for any computer hardware like that's the kind of scale these projects operate on so Intel's revenues might look really good because they have contracts locked in from before AMD was even remotely competitive but that situation can change and if AMD can stay very competitive and or even be a leader in certain aspects of that space we're gonna start to see it soon yeah and like okay I don't want any of this to be interpreted as actually advising anyone to do anything please note as far as I'm concerned Lee's investing in stocks is gambling yeah you might as well put you know ten thousand on black and spin the wheel as far as I'm concerned because there are so many factors like you definitely more to it than that but like yeah you could have well yes and no because look at look at what happened to hard drives back in what was it 2011 when there was the the flooding in Thailand right yeah Thailand Thailand flooding it completely destroyed their revenue and then it was the crazy thing so destroyed their revenue everyone dumped them and then their profit margins went way up because supply was constrained and they were a hot item yeah yo you understand what is even going on the business fundamentals never really changed here I just think like instead of a what is it like forty eight point five or something percentage chance if you go on a black or red I think you can try to push that percentage a little bit yeah but you can also push that percentage at the blackjack table that's true like you don't have to play roulette you did use roulette that's true I'm just saying be cut like war could break out and it's and that will wrap and that's actually like a scary possibility like it's a funny thing to talk about because in our lifetimes our generation there have been wars there was the war in Afghanistan but if we're being if we're being honest with ourselves conflicts that was not a war compared to the Second World War yeah like the are the previous generation saw war to the degree with that the entire country is mobilized you know people who aren't working are kind of being rounded up to produce bullets in impromptu factories so that the soldiers overseas will have enough bullets like it's different it's very different and when that happens there are some companies that can flourish and there's other companies that will absolutely not tech companies might actually even do okay I wouldn't think consumer tech companies would do okay but certain enterprise tech companies might do completely fine so we're just trying to say that no matter what it is no matter how sure the outlook is anything could happen so it really is a gamble well I'm the only one that answered though what do you what are you oh I have it I have a few other like maybe in justing idea once but I want to I want to hear from you this isn't something I've thought about so I really I don't know I actually think Amazon is far from capped out personally for sure like I I thought I always have a problem with including them in this type of stack because you're talking I thought we were talking about like like tech companies were I think they have plenty of room to continue to innovate and continue to take over the world like if there's anyone who's gonna be the by and large from wall-e it's gonna be Amazon oh absolutely have you seen their their like the revenue stack of Amazon versus all these other retail companies no it's insane I don't know where that picture is from but it like it includes so many physical retailers that are like really big names that are just a tiny fraction of the revenue that Amazon's pulling like it's absolute madness yeah I don't think there's an insight for them either I think I think there's I think there's plenty of room for them especially because they've already gone global they've got they've sort of opening up India and they are sophisticated so yeah Amazon I I wanted to put like a quarter of my net worth in Amazon like five years ago which like it wasn't you know like a huge amount of money or anything but it was like a big bet for me well that was around the time that instead we found it lands meager so you know what Linus media group has been a worked out great but Amazon also wouldn't a bit so yeah I tried to get I sent a yeah was it a letter I don't know this was a long time ago pre halo one yeah I tried to the the only person I knew that had any form of money was my grandpa so I like wrote a thing and gave it to my grandpa trying to get my grandpa to invest in Bungie pre halo one before the game was out I was like this is gonna be insane and I'm a kid I have no money I can't do it but I'm like someone needs to do this and that was a no so there was no Bungie investment at that time I don't even know if they were I didn't know anything back then I don't know if they were a publicly traded company like I have no clue that was even possible I was just like I think my grandpa was just like okay do we have to talk about this I mean wait what which one oh so tf2 used to be fun do you was so much fun and then they made it free-to-play and there were hats everywhere that was legitimately when I stopped playing tf2 used to actually be really fun the problem with free-to-play is that there's no real there's no real venom in the in the vacban thanks yeah because you can just use do I still call them Smurfs accounts yeah okay so you can just use smartphones and you can create as many accounts as you want and the ban just means nothing IP is so easy to get around these days very easy get a get a PA a subscription so I don't want to be like that but it's kind of a different community in games where it's people who can afford to pay 20 bucks all right so one thing that I'm gonna throw in here is Prime status so you were asking about this early on if you bought counter-strike before it went free-to-play you have prime status and if you pay the equivalent of buying the game you can buy prime status forever forever it's a one-time purchase and you can filter matches so that you only play against prime enabled people oh okay so like my account okay I actually didn't know that you guys plays against prime enabled accounts so prime status matches you with Prime's and if I'm trying done for prime you have to like you have to put your phone number in so like if your prime account gets bad your phone number gets banned okay I'm like there's some other you I think you have to play a minimum amount before you can actually match make it that even if you buy a prime account like there's thing I don't remember all of it I'm sorry but there is additional requirements as well like yeah prime match ranking is pretty cool there is still plenty of hackers on prime matchmaking wingman before they the most people even in the counselor community know what wingmen is but wingmen before they enabled replays and before they enabled what is it called the like was this person cheating watch her thing I don't know what that's called but whatever before they enabled either of those things was just a hive of villainy in terms of hacking and when they enabled those things it was insane the amount of people that got banned to the next day because there was all these replays of people cheating in this special mode that didn't have replays so then just waves of bands it was it was glorious because I I like to play that mode but yeah it's okay so in addition to it going for you play and the prime status thing there's also a battle royale mode one interesting thing about this battle royale like a bill that got passed but I'm not aware of so there's gonna be done a battle royale like it's not actually because I'd be kind of cool there's everything already new dota 2 has a battle royale mode yeah I was like I'm pretty sure it is oh I already closed it I'm over okay so danger zone most battle rails they're like a hundred people right mm-hmm this is sixteen that's not really Royale it's much more less than battle fee is really really tiny like it doesn't hear the matches last about ten minutes each that makes sense you can you can play in solo duo or trios there's no quad there's no squad or quad or whatever you want to call it you you pick up guns and equipment and now armor and flashbangs and there is a self heal thing which kind of streak hasn't had before but there is a self feel thing which makes sense but you also pick up cash this counter strike has always had the buying make it right so you can buy stuff but a drone will deliver it to you okay that's interesting you have a tablet thing so you can see the map and you can see the drone coming to you but everyone else can see the drone and it drops it on you and like if you move a little bit it'll go to where Hugh Clarke fishing so people can hunt the drones down and this is actually a really if you haven't played before do this and get tons of free kills trust you hunt the drone down you followed the drone and then you go to where it's dropping it you sit a little bit away you wait for it to drop and then you just aim where it's dropping and some dudes gonna run up and try to get it and just shoot them it's amazing just free kills all the time it's yeah it's interesting it's one thing that I like about it is the 10 minute matches even if you win it's like a 10 minute matter okay thought faster that's one improvement like battle right I had a lot of fun playing Club G not for tonight so much but I had a lot of fun playing pub G like the handful of times I was able to do it yeah but it was just it's really long unless you could commit like three hours to a gaming session you're not really gonna get into your groove even necessarily like we won our first and third game I think it was so those matches are really long they'd actually gone for a very long time and that that's been a problem with competitive games for a long time is that their matches last forever a competitive counter-strike natural asset very long time competitive league alleged to match very long time dota 2 very long time lots of these games are really really long so having 10-minute matches is actually very cool and like when you die or when you win there's a play again button sitting right there click it you get right back into another game it's really fast cool okay one plus a CEO this was posted by dr. McIntosh on the forum oh the previous one was princess cadance and the previous one was dais of voltage one plus a CEO tells the truth about 5g the original article hears from the verge and it's from an interview with pete lau about qualcomm snapdragon 855 or no it's not this ss-sorry is that the snapdragon tech summit in maui so he said his company is working on both a new 5 g1 plus phone and 4G phones in parallel he expects the 5g phone will cost as much as 200 to $300 more wrap your head around that holy cow so 5g is coming but it is not necessarily going to be mainstream that is one hell of a premium that's like a g-sync addition to your phone so this might not be the case for all news 5g smartphones some might try to monetize their existing customer bass as much as they can just saying well you know people will pay for it so we're gonna price it it whatever whatever we can well others might try to gain market share by offering 5g connectivity at a cut-throat price one of the challenges is going to be building 5g phones for multiple carriers that can operate on different that operate on different frequencies so loud specs that it will be even more difficult now this has gotten easier over time as the as the the antennas that have been integrated into our phones have gotten broader and broader support for 4G LTE frequencies but now he expects it's gonna be even more difficult to take a phone from one carrier to another with 5g than it was for 4G interesting they haven't seen a solution that would cover different carrier many carriers around the world huh well that interesting scary that is kind of scary as if phones weren't expensive enough already so one plus is 5g phone is targeting just one type of 5g network the slower speeds but wider coverage area sub six spectrum used by EE its first carrier partner in Europe in the u.s. 18 TM Verizon are both focusing on the faster but lower range millimeter wave and apparently on the product level it's much more complex than 4G like a significantly higher level of challenge especially millimeter wave hi it's gonna be interesting in places like the US where like I mean Canada has this problem too but I literally think it's worse in the US the coverage areas are already terrible that's right let me have you like shorter distance less penetration through walls signals so this is interesting Walmart has apparently dropped the pricing of their overpowered gaming PC's I guess to just get rid of them and then I don't know I guess to just get rid of them and either refresh them with better motherboards or just get rid of them outright fascinating it's too bad because I actually think that there was potential for them to like there were processes that seemed to be fine across the board I was surprised how many people were really upset about the USB 3 port being hot glued in oh yeah I mean that just didn't make any sense to me but I didn't think was that big of a deal yeah but like people thought it was just a horrendous thing like stuff gets hot glued into people's pieces okay like that's actually clinging some jostle round and Shipman yeah and hot glue especially because you gotta remember - I actually didn't test it I should have tested I should have pulled it out there's lots of different kinds of hot glue some of them are actually designed to be quite easy to peel off ya know though I thought you were gonna say you were surprised people were so upset about the USB - on the front I was gonna say no I was pretty upset about that the front ports were USB - come on what year is it literally didn't even know what you're talking about that sounds really stupid very very stupid especially with the amount of USB three front headers you can get now like you can actually put a lot up there pretty easily was the CPU hot glued in - no no no they got that part right all right bringing us to the end of the show with the super chat all right do an lttb knee for real says andrew there will be lots more merge stuff stay tuned yeah stay tuned Liam says will this work it worked Liam mesh says what even what are these super Chad's well sometimes people don't like they say something within the context of what's happening at that exact second on the internet no one knows you're a puppy that didn't make sense at any point in this tree no his name is pup Shepherd though so daniel says when did you start growing a beard Luke was it when your razor got too dull I don't want to talk about it but I'm looking for a barber cuz I'm gonna try to have it shaped okay got it I want to keep it going but it's a mess so I just want it to be not a mess Dennis asks why this is the 4790k still a good CPU or is it worthwhile to upgrade and if you were to upgrade would you choose rise in her Intel I'm mostly game I would hold on to oh but I need more course for other stuff okay what other stuff yeah that would be helpful to know if it's just for gaming no I would stick with that maybe overclock it a little bit if you need to do other stuff it depends what the other stuff is and how much of it you do if you do a lot of other stuff and it needs a lot more cores I'd go Rison if not then I'd probably go 80 600 K or something like that post on the forum yeah SSA mjh says I just bought X 470 and rise in 720 700 X so sad no don't be sad good good come spirit mr. Sherwood says subscribe to PewDiePie dave says love l TT wanted to make another plea for a retro gaming video team up with retro RGB um I don't know exactly what we do you know it's funny we get like collab requests from other creators sometimes and I got one quite recently that's like I'm like yeah sure that would be kind of neat but like what do we do what would we do I don't like collabing just for the sake of cross-pollinating it feels thank you yeah cross-pollinating yeah I just I just don't care um barcia long cent $69 course he did thoughts on intel missing the 10 nanometer node Oh so for one thing I do want to point out they didn't entirely miss it they do actually they are actually shipping ten down Demeter products right now a lot of people don't know this they have nooks that do have ten did you know this but have ten nanometer processors in them yeah yeah so they didn't they didn't mess it all together but it's sort of in the same way that they didn't entirely miss broad well yeah right broad well consumer to be clear broad well did make it to hed TN enterprise but yes they did they did miss broad well I'm a they do up here to have missed 10 nanometer because from what I've been seeing the rumor is they're kind of trying to go straight to 7 have you seen this as well yes um I think we've no haven't we known that for a bit so the thing about Intel is a lot of people like to talk about Intel as though Intel is a person with a singular desire and a singular work ethic and a singular sort of a moral compass as though as though it was that simple Intel is a lot of children company there are a gigantic company something like a hundred thousand employees and they even just physical displacement of those employees is very notable on the one hand this is a pretty big black mark on what is otherwise an astonishing record of technological innovation over the years on the other hand to me it's less about Intel missing 10 nanometer and more about Intel missing 10 nanometer being indicative of where the technology industry is going over the next 10 years we have taken for granted that things will just get faster and smaller with better battery life we just assume that every year there will be a new iPhone that is better than the old one in some meaningful way yeah that may actually stop and it's funny because I remember standing it was really weird it was kind of like it was kind of like a Jesus speech because Roger koduri had just come back to AMD and I kind of feel like they did it on purpose like he was supposed to be kind of like the Messiah to bring their graphics business back from the brink meanwhile he's gone now but anyway that's a whole other thing so he's standing Marin Hawaii and he's standing at the top of this kind of Hill and we're all kind of spread out in front of him not really Wow like we just kind of hiked up to this thing it was it was cool they were like ruins and stuff anyway there was ruins and stuff ruins ruins yeah not those kinds I was like this is getting pretty crazy and he kind of stands up there and declares AMD's graphics business to be a software business and remember this was was he wrong how programmable have GPUs become in that time yeah and that's effectively what that's that's one piece of this of the puzzle of the direction that we are moving overall and Intel missing a node and your applications getting faster and your graphics in your games getting better anyway is sort of an indication of what is to come software tomfoolery like with VR the way that disagree inject extra frames to accommodate that graphics cards haven't gotten a lot faster or more certainly not more affordable software tomfoolery may just be the way it's gonna have to be go ahead I think it might be the way it's gonna have to be for a little while and then we will change how we're doing things like I mean risk five could come along and really change the game yep like like there could be completely different architecture style plus that's gonna take time yes okay III will agree with your stance probably for like a little while but I I think I could see it doing that five years sure yeah I could see that butBut I think eventually we're gonna change how we do things and then we'll see advancement again in in in hardware or whatever it is at that time cuz like the challenge here I said if we Computing's are really cool if we could just keep pushing clock speed higher it would be easier to compensate for some of the some of the trickery that has already made its way into the hardware products I mean you look at what happened with Specter in meltdown yeah anything that requires a branch prediction for example which dramatically accelerates the CPU I mean if you don't have good branch prediction in your CPU your performance basically sucks these days and now all of a sudden there's these exploits that are making it so that it's becoming more challenging to implement these features I mean SMT there was there was a group that came out and basically said hyper threading is insecure we just like shouldn't use it anymore meanwhile poor AMD oh man we finally got it we just added this so it's like everyone tells you about this party and you show up and you show up in everyone's leaving it's like sohbats on Intel missing the 10 nanometer node I don't think that and I don't think people are gonna stop needing computing devices and I think Intel is gonna continue to be a player in that space whether it's through innovating their own things or acquiring others or just marketing the heck out of themselves again but the industry as a whole has gotten less exciting to me oh I'm not gonna hide it yeah and I think that Intel is a symptom as opposed to of the problem I hope that answer is helpful I can't read your user name but you said fortnight is for children war boy please make a video we saw this PC case in half and put it back together with the power of flex tape no uh head for you hi Dax hi Johnny hi Wow Kenzi boy I need a new phone as a viewer next birth I wouldn't go vivo next personally I would go something with a better camera Mikkel says ordered your coffee should be here in a few days you're gonna be trying it the same time I am because I actually haven't tried it yet really well I don't really drink coffee well as you know yeah and I wasn't actually in office when they were doing all the testing of like the different blends that they concocted for us and stuff but we had just about a dozen people here try it and like it so what it what is the blend do we know can you say well I have a drug okay that's fair so I'll be trying it around the same time as everyone else and by the way don't pre-order but also I guess pretty good think of it more like supporting LC team less like pre-ordering um total set hi cheers back to Norway QWERTY asked lzx after party Wow no idea get back to you on that one Cameron time to fly up from Florida for this that would be awesome it's gonna be awesome I can't read your name because you're Russian but what's the Dreamhack dang it it's Dreamhack just Google dreamer yeah but says what exactly is going on at LTX lots of stuff stay tuned to LAN show we're gonna be talking about three great Jesus says best phone for gaming GPS hot spotting Bluetooth and chart Oh and charging all at the same time in hot weather without overheating I still play pokemon go Oh No hey hey Jake that fan module for the ROG phone that made a pretty big difference right yeah like what five degrees 10 degrees I remember it actually helped and actually uh one plus we found when we were evaluating the razer gaming phone one plus does a great job of the management of their CPUs power states so can't can't recommend those guys enough clémence says will there be free madrenas coffee at LTX probably not but knowing those guys maybe yeah Tommy says bring channels super fun vac yeah you heard Channel super fun really what is it oh really someone's spending time editing that mess that's a shame I don't care I just mean that must be painful mister Boisvert says dear ltte team australia just passed a very problematic bill to break encryption on any online service I edit or realized to be very problematic bit this is extremely problematic what alright you have not have you not heard about this we probably should have covered this on the show today it's kind of a big deal um basically they are mandating backdoors why I mean I don't think they're gonna do it but if I was Google and Facebook and Microsoft and Amazon just don't and I neither and I knew what was and I thought I knew what was best for my entire in moving forward I would completely pull out of Austria like now let the Australian people be super mad that they can't reach anybody on any services that they are accustomed to using and beat down the doors of their elected representatives and get this fixed the fact that Australia is so messed up in regards to how they deal with internet is just insane it's it's such a mess yeah the on visual asks if I can bring the Backstreet Boys back to LTH oh my god at like 4:00 in the morning we should play it on the speakers be so amazing yes anonymous got a dream job hmm want to support my favorite youtubers sent 500 dollars Wow is that the maximum you can send in a super chat I think so I have no idea there is a max that's crazy holy crap thank you thanks anonymous we're glad to be your favorite we're glad someone else wasn't your favorite um Nate says Thank You Linus and the media group I like that it's kind of like a band the media groups just for giving me the confidence to build my first PC today rock on man so does that count as having your name in it um Wow okay all right I think that's pretty much it thanks for watching you guys and we'll see you again next week same bat-time same bat-channel goodbye and we'll see you on float plane next week yeah
