2018-02-22
who's the better employee VIN or Mack nah it's Mack so yeah I'd say you probably got that covered hey what's up guys I'm QB HD here did you want to gonna come back alright what's up guys I'm Kip EHD here welcome back to a QA I don't have any more you want to treat probably I don't have anymore welcome to Q&A number 25 we're doing one every bye we're doing one every month this is February so it's the second one of 2018 and I asked you guys questions on Twitter and a little bit from a reddit thread as well from the subreddit and you guys had great questions so here are the answers what you want to do on stage if you won this shorty okay this is actually a good opportunity to plug this for the last time so today is the final day that you can vote for mkbhd for a shorty award for creator of the decade it's a ridiculous honor and there's an awesome crew of other youtubers also nominated I'll leave the link below if you want to vote it ends like tonight at midnight so I'll stop talking about it after this point but yeah that's linked below also I have no idea what I would do on stage if I won because I fully do not expect to actually win that how many views did you get on your first ever a YouTube video from the time it was uploaded till the time you uploaded your second video that's an interesting question I'd say probably three or four views of course that was also at a time where you're not making the video for getting views it's just making the videos cuz they're fun so I probably uploaded my second video like a day after the first video I've also pointed to in the past the fact that I uploaded my first 100 videos for a total of 74 or 76 subscribers something like that and made a thank you video for video number 100 so we're in a totally different place now but that was a definitely a good time you were on a plane and about to take your seat which gadgets do you have on you interesting so I guess personally when I'm traveling just any time I always have my backpack and in my backpack is always my chargers for my phones USBC chargers or lightning chargers and Bo's QC 35 headphones I literally will go back to my house to get them if I forget them I can't fly without them but then the other interesting thing is if you're traveling with camera gear you can't put like a large amount of batteries under the plane so anytime I travel with camera gear I also don't want to check a bag with the red in it so it's all with me also I have a think tank bag that's the exact dimensions of the overhead compartment and it fits a couple lenses all my batteries to camera that's always with me if I'm traveling with cameras and I'm a laptop usually if it's a long flight I can actually try to connect to the internet and do a little bit of work but Nintendo switch also fun fact is a great size for airplanes it's not too big that you're like struggling with the seat in front of you great for gaming a new recommendation there what is your monthly data usage like actually I can check but it's usually pretty high each other pretty often when I'm traveling but the last I'm my my usage allows for five gigs and then I pay for more unrestricted data after five gigs which isn't that much but last last period I used 39 gigs so clearly I pay a lot more than I have to who do you think is actually in e lons roadster the one that's in space I actually asked him and he said Elvis so there's that how do you feel about the whole YouTube thing the 4000 watch hours and 1000 subscribers would demotivate small youtubers community so I've thought about this for a bit because I've been a youtuber for a long time but when I was first starting out and when I had numbers that were below that threshold you're not thinking about how much money you're making you're more concerned with legitimacy and growing your audience and actually making stuff you enjoy so for youtubers who have been making content under that amount of money the amount you're missing out on might be like $3 you're not gonna be massively concerned about not getting ad revenue because you haven't reached that yet so the limit makes sense for YouTube they want to limit how many people can just sign up and make spam channels and re-upload everyone's footage and make money off of that until it gets shut down this rule minimizes that but I don't think it should be discouraging for small creators who are going to be building their audiences anyway and working on their craft anyway because once they pass that threshold the amount of money they've missed out on is almost nothing and they're actually gonna be still working on growing their audience does the sound quality of the home pod fill the gap Siri leaves as far as assistance guess so I would say watch that video watch the home pod video I talked and I think I pretty much ended the video with the answer to your question which is basically guess that's but unless you're an audiophile in which case home pod would probably not be your first ever nice speaker purchase so you got to be in a really small demographic to want a home pod who you got in the NBA Finals I have my Rockets upsetting the Warriors I mean is it an upset if they're the one seed Rockets over the Warriors in the West Cleveland probably over Boston yeah probably Boston but I kind of see hugely going all the way at least because I'm super biased well Nokia be able to acquire the same status that they were previously known for this is a fun one because my answer is no I don't see them being one of the most sold phones of all time ever again that's actually something a lot of people don't knows if you look at the like a Wikipedia chart of the highest selling individual smartphones of all time Nokia has a lot of spots on that list but it's with those classics like the 33 10 and like the 33 50 actually have one from when I did that April Fool's video a couple of them actually but since this time since this dominant time of Nokia selling millions and millions of phones they haven't really had any major hits like this they've had some windows phones that have been pretty solid it seems like they've decided that this is the best they're gonna do because this is the latest phone that they've released which is the 3310 again it still plays snake it's still what they think is their best choice so as much as I really ruin blackberry about how behind all the times they are Nokia is also feeling that nostalgia pretty hard so I don't I don't foresee them reaching these heights again this was kind of a go all right so we can do a couple from the subreddit here does the merch line have plans to release hoodies in the future love the videos keep up the amazing work thank you sir so for the merch line that's something we've heard a lot about is you know suggestions for what which I asked for probably the number one suggestion was people in colder climates who don't wear t-shirts is often some sort of a long sleeve or jacket or hoodie option and we hear that loud and clear and just generally we've heard a lot of great feedback about the things that you've been able to order plenty of people have ordered them I'm pretty excited for you guys to rock them the link of course is always below or in bio as a matter of fact I think I've enjoyed this this little launch so much that I feel like giving away a free shirt I'll give away one of the pieces emerged so basically how this works is it's a promo code you'll have to type it in so make sure you I guess you're on the site right now and you probably have what you want in your cart so do that if you're ready I'll just go ahead and read this out all right so it's p b z s w p4 c c8 and then you hit apply and it's probably gone assuming you weren't first here's a couple of this if you're a if you're faster all right how is how has having additional team members increase video production efficiency or quality of your videos it's a great question that I've also seen a lot I think the short answer to that is just more better typically the relationship for a creator between more videos and better videos is inverse if you want to make a lot more videos typically they don't get a lot better if you want to make much better videos typically they don't happen very often but having more hands and like-minded extremely talented people on board makes it so that I can kind of increase both a little bit at the same time ideally I mean I'm still learning we're all still sort of building this together but that's the goal more better now as someone says how do you spell your middle name with a K anyway I'm gonna end it there that's been a wrap thanks for watching these Q&A videos all the relevant links are below everything you saw in this video but yeah thanks for thanks for being a part of this this has been a pretty solid start to 2018 and I feel like a lot of good stuff is coming until the next one thanks for watching talk to you later pace
