live hello everyone and welcome to awesome hardware this is a live show we talk about technology we drink a few beers occasionally we use some adult language some curse words from time to time you know not excessively but just bear that in mind if you are sensitive to that sort of thing but demonstrate right now we already have been doing this show for an hour this is episode number 130 of awesome hardware and the first half was on Kyle's YouTube channel which is known as bit wit so check that out the link is in the description as well as links to all the stuff we're gonna be talking about today which includes net neutrality the galaxy X rumored from Samsung as well as some some information about a big old cigar shaped asteroid large cigar shaped - drink some time yeah but if you happen to watch our YouTube channels and you enjoy the content we produce and you think that were snappy dressers for instance with the shirts that we're in right now also sorry my dogs are freaking

mmm getting that nut mmm oh it's delicious it's quite tasty very good beer yes indeed all right do the news news from from Earth exactly that means if you want I can turn on the effects I'm sure everyone all right net neutrality we're gonna launch into a brief description of this it's been all over the news today if you especially if you've been on say reddit or anything like that because the FCC today has announced their new plans to eliminate net neutrality rules and what Damona pause this real quick that's a bad thing I'm gonna watch Wolf Blitzer a couple links in the video's description about this on Rudy Reuters I'm sorry as well as Ars Technica net neutrality is under attack brief history of net neutrality the internet was created back in the 70s and 80s start with ARPANET grew into what it is today for a very long time net neutrality was just sort of accepted as as that's how the internet works there was what was called light touch regulation because if you went on the internet and you wanted to go to that website over there or that website over there you were just able to do that because the internet was and an interconnected network of computers with different websites and that was the point of it was to do it to go to whatever website you wanted that's how it works right now in about one in 2013 there was actually some lis legal stuff that happened with regards to the Internet there was a challenge to the enforcement's of the light touch regulation there was another lawsuits against the FCC to challenge that and eventually in 2015 the FCC under the chairman at the time Tom wheeler decided to classify Internet service providers wired the wired connection you get to your home as well as wireless the connection you get on your cell phone classify them as what is called common carriers which allowed the FCC to regulate the Internet service providers under title 2 of the Telecommunications Act of 1940 reality to make an Internet service provider such as Verizon or Comcast or a TNC treats all data equally wherever it came from out there on the internet so if you at home wanted to access Netflix you couldn't stream that video from Netflix or if you wanted to get on Facebook you could access Facebook to do that or any other websites or thing that was on the internet you could do that's what's being challenged right now it actually started back in May they introduced what was called an notice of proposed rulemaking they took a bunch of comments about that notice of proposed rulemaking they received actually 22 million comments about it but there was some controversy around that there was a mysterious DDoS attack of the FCC's comment system there were impersonating person ations of people going on comments that were submitted and then they looked at the comment because their public comments and you can see who made the comment and they contacted that person and say hey why did you say this and they were like I never said that there's been impersonations going on there's also been people both live and dead impersonated and spot spam bots taking advantage the batch submission API that the FCC had on their website as well now there has been analysis of the comments that went through the system though and a very analysis and in particular that's referenced by the ARS technica article that's linked in this video's description was actually funded by broadband for America the members of broadband America for America include AT&T CenturyLink charter Comcast many of the large Internet service providers who are actually behind the current attempt to remove net neutrality from the currents way that the FCC works a specific study made by them found that when they looked at unique comments that have been made via the system nothing that was repeated multiple times by a batch entry or something where it was like a form that people were just copying and pasting and submitting unique comments 98.5 percent 98.5 percent of people who submitted comments like net neutrality want net neutrality and do not want these rules to be removed which is what is currently being proposed so what happened today was an introduction of these plans to deregulate the broadband industry and eliminate net neutrality rules by reversing the 2015 classification of home and mobile ISPs as common carriers it was unveiled today tomorrow there will be a formal introduction and then the vote will actually take place on December 13th the FCC is currently republican-controlled and when you start talking about Republican and Democrat people immediately get into this tribal mode where if you're on one side or the other and you hate the other side and everything it's very divisive and it's very sad that the US has is kind of in the state right now and it kind of sucks i lure all of you if you are on one side or the other to try to look at this from a neutral perspective don't take parties into consideration but when it comes down to it the FCC has five members five voting members and three of them are Republicans two of them are Democrats and chances are the way the votes going to go down is as a pie and the two Republicans are gonna vote in favor of this new rule and the two Democrats are gonna vote against it and it's probably going to pass that's the expectation right now as you pie if you're not familiar with him former lawyer for Verizon and although he seems to be a super nice guy in person very very much has showed no inclination towards hearing what people seem to be saying when it comes to what people want that to actually happen when it comes to net neutrality and the way the internet is controlled so anyway what what does this mean in basic terms for for citizens of the United States if this gets passed this is affect their daily lives we'll get to that in just a second okay but for right now let's talk about what is going on as far as potential responses to this the Democratic Commissioner there's two Democratic commissioners is like I said Jessica rosenworcel is one of them she has proposed that the FCC hold public hearings across the country before altering the rules so that they can talk to people in person and perhaps get through the potential you know of the stuff that we're I already mentioned about the online submissions for commentary and stuff like that even there's questions as to how the legitimacy of a lot of those comments yes so having person hearings but that doesn't that's probably not gonna be what happens the plan that is proposed is called restoring Internet freedom because it restores and I which I think is because it restores two big Internet service providers the freedom to charge customers more money and block or slow content as they see fit after the vote there will probably be a lawsuits against the FCC but in the past the courts have generally gone with the decision that the FCC makes so there's not a whole lot of hope of that happening but Kyle asked what like what we're looking at what the what actually might the the upshot or repercussions of this be for you at home and where did that go it's gone brace yourself it's a Twitter it's Twitter link and I didn't make it into an actual link so I didn't actually open it hold on so in Portugal there are no net neutrality there are no laws to enforce net neutrality so what what as you pie in the FCC what as you press proposing right now is like we don't need rules we don't need any laws to enforce the Internet service providers to treat Internet traffic equally we don't have anything that actually forces that all we need is to tell them that you're gonna be honest you as the Internet service provider is gonna be honest with the American people about how you treat your traffic so as long as you tell people oh so there's word there we're not gonna let this traffic through it's for if it's from this part of the internet or this web site or whatever as long as you tell people that it's totally fine in Portugal there are no net neutrality there are no laws to protect net neutrality and this tweet from Rihanna shows just a snapshot of one of the net introductory packages you can see this is the prices in Euros and as you can see a messaging package if you want to add that to your network five euros a month if you want Skype Google Hangouts and access to that the social package an extra five euros a month if you want access to Facebook Instagram Twitter as well as all the other popular social networking sites the video package for an extra five euros a month if you want to access YouTube Netflix periscope and twitch the music package if you want to stream from your favorite music streaming pack there's streaming websites an extra $5 a month if you want access to Spotify or google play music email and cloud oh you want to connect to your email service provider to actually get to your email well you got you didn't pay for the email package with your basic low rate of $50 a month for your internet so you're gonna have to pay an extra five whatever euros or dollars to access your email or your Google cloud or your cool or anything like that it's like me not and this is this is this is this is not a like specula photoshopped this is not a speculative this is how this is what it might happen this is how it actually works I mean it's it's really really horrible there's not a whole lot that we can do right now except to contact as United States citizens your representatives and the the House of Representatives or your Senators and tell them emphatically that you really really don't want this to happen let them know that you will consider their decision when it comes to getting in touch with the FCC to let them know about how their constituents feel that you will take their actions on this as an indication of how you should vote in 2018 that's really all you can do I mean like it's it's sad that we have to increase that what over 98% I'll that over 90% to like 99.9% like the 98% isn't good enough like 98% of us who don't want charity to go away isn't good enough like you still have to write your Congressman to make it 99.999999% in order for these in order for this to stop happening it's just it's ludicrous so yes it's incredibly frustrating if any of you guys are outside of the United States and looking in on this and are sympathetic for us we I mean at least we freq we greatly appreciate that it really really sucks but yeah if you want to contact your senator people your Congress critters or whatnots battle for the Netcom has a good sort of rundown of what's going on right now and you can enter your phone number and we'll give you scripts of what to say when you call in and that kind of thing driving calls also has sort of another rundown with a bunch of links to videos that probably do a better just jobs and I have done now talking about the problem from lots of popular people it's exciting to see certain websites get an annus like pornhub I saw an article on them they had a big banner across the top of the website and for all it keeps coming up and it might be fatiguing but it does seem like when the the public has an outcry that's significant enough about this type of thing that you can get the powers-that-be to listen so we sincerely hope that they do if this does pass it will probably be challenged in court and we'll see how things go then but hopefully there is enough backlash right now like in the next two weeks before December 14th that they at least have second thoughts about just plowing through with this with this decision and the stupid plan that the FCC has come up with to get rid of net neutrality all right let's move on before no big yeah deep deep breath and let's move on alright so we talked about Battlefront 2 and the embattled EA with some of their decisions when it comes to micro transactions in the game and they they backpedals pretty quickly last week oh yeah they do they came back and they're like I know micro transactions for now temporary rescind ation of the micro transaction system yeah battlefront - sorry the dogs are barking right now my wife is ready oh my gosh everything's fine everything's fine ok so yeah and developer dice announced last week that they are temporarily removing micro transactions from Star Wars Battlefront - good news maybe but yeah you gotta consider a very-very a very very like evidence in every single actual legit communication from ei about this was that word temporary nevertheless ventureBeat actually reported last week that Disney CEO Bob Iger called EA CEO Andrew Wilson after the backlash when it became big news in order to discuss this being a negative for reflecting negatively on their intellectual property especially with the launch of the next Star Wars movie coming up in December and that that was the reason why they went back on their decision there's a new report from Wall Street Journal that says it wasn't actually called between those CEOs and that might have been just speculative or perhaps you know fake news or whatever the Disney head of consumer products and intern act interactive media Jimmy potaro did send EA a message though expressing Disney's concerns and the executives were upset at how online outrage over the costs of gaining access to popular characters such as Luke Skywalker reflected on their marquee property and that was what led to the decision to make the change if you're looking at EA as a whole and you're hoping that all of the public backlash against them has caused them to fail as a company or something or seriously reconsider their actions probably not an SEC filing late last week so the temporary removal of battlefront to microtransactions is not expected to have a material impact on EA's fiscal year 2018 financial guidance so who knows if that's accurate or if that's just sort of them trying to communicate to their investors that they shouldn't freak out and sell their stock but it is important again to point out that everything here that's listed by EA as far as actions are taking right now is temporary and it might just be something that they're trying to do to salvage holiday season sales of their new game and they're gonna immediately turn it back on once that time frame has passed who really knows it'll probably depend on how pissed off people are and how much they're slandering EA online but hopefully for now people are more concerned about net neutrality yeah just just keep keep looping it better than that bigger fish to fry yeah people all right Tesla geez music oh my was calm badass maybe should have that song like intro or show every time welcome Tesla's new electric semi-truck I was introducing awesome harness yeah the Dec new show that no one asked for yeah featuring well full standing room it's a Tesla last week I posited I'm saying enjoy you killer two new vehicles one that was more expected the semi truck which is shown in this excellent video with the awesome music it's super corporate it's a semi the test size semi it's an all-electric heavy-duty truck in veiled it last week November 16th it shares a number of parts with the model 3 including the same motor handles and display screen gnarley' has a captain's chair up in front which is centrally located which is kind of different it's got two display screens in front of that a standing cabinet with that centralized area which is allowed to be positioned more towards the front of the cab because there is no engine or transmission up there to get in the way so that's that's pretty nice it's also got zero to 60 mile per hour acceleration in five seconds which is insane for a semi truck and it's got Teslin glass which is armored and apparently you can withstand bullets or something like that what 500 mile range 30-minute recharge 1 million mile guarantee from Elon Musk as far as the durability of the truck goes and ramped yes it's all pretty impressive when it comes to stats their enhanced autopilot with lane-keeping emergency braking forward collision warning and production of the truck should start in 2019 so that's for truckers but that was the first part of this introduction the second part that came later on was the Tesla Roadster which which is super crazy it is and all that not even the right thing hold on it's the Roadster any better pictures of the Roadster sorry one sec it's a $200,000 car yeah $200,000 the 50 grand deposit required upfront mkbhd already ordered one yeah yeah it was that is shocking said no one ever well he said he only he only spends lots of money on cars and cameras which is a reasonable thing I guess to spend a bunch of money on but yeah the Roadster it's a two-door but does have four seats which is crazy when you look at it because like where the other two seats must be for very very small people in the back or whatever but 0 to 100 kilometers an hour or 0 to 60 miles per hour in 1.9 seconds one less than two seconds 620 mile range so musk said you could go from LA to San Francisco and back in one charge which is pretty cool for an electric vehicle quarter-mile time of 8.9 seconds top speed of plus 250 miles per hour and 7400 foot-pounds of torque which is 7 times what the Bugatti Veyron Super Sport has also pretty crazy when it comes to like a 1.5 million dollar car yeah like base so I think it's a $50,000 down payment right now but $200,000 is is the total cost of the vehicle and you can pre-order one right now like hell already said mkbhd at least according to his Twitter feed has ordered one and here is the so the it's called going to plaid or extreme plaid mode and there's a video of it here why why is it called plaid mode um because it's it's it's the extreme acceleration that it can do so it's got three independent engines and this isn't the type of thing that you could do as a person controlling the vehicle you have to like plug it in and be like all right do the super dupe lad mode right now yeah so there's a video of it here it can set it up and they had this sort of tunnel setup for people with lighting and stuff like that going on in its and let me jump forward so there's the tunnel and this guy just had it was in the passenger seat with his smartphone which saves a Spaceballs reference yeah it is it is a Spaceballs reference absolutely and then and then you they kick it off and it's just crazy acceleration an interesting video to watch equal most of the dudes reaction yeah that's got to be some ridiculous torque yeah I mean the video the video doesn't really brush do justice I'm sure I can't imagine that's like that's like a roller like that's like Montezuma's Revenge yeah that's like yeah it's straight up like a roller coaster let's go pretty sweet no time for combustion Turner granite model production is set for 2020 for the Tesla Roadster but of course grain of salt because the model 3 right now which was already supposed to be more available than it currently is is suffering some pretty significant delays in production so who knows if that's gonna affect this as well yeah alright the Roadster also might be able to fly say just a quick follow-up story based on some of Elon Musk's tweets a special option package yeah it takes it to the next level so quite literally what yeah she's clarify this is the base model performance there will be a special option package that takes it to the next level definitely enable to fly not saying the next-gen road roadster special upgrade package will definitely enable it to fly short but maybe how certainly possible just a question of safety rocket Tech applied to a car opens up revolutionary possibilities so how you like some wings you like snap some wings on the side yeah how does that even some lifts like what does the FAA have to say about this I don't know it's a little crazy well short hops what does that mean fly short hops like it'll be able to like jump up for like a split second and come back down look it'll actually levitate for a moment before why so you have to deal with speed bumps like never have to go over speed when it'll just like levitate over well just wait over a speed bump from now on because anything beyond that it's like you have to create air roads if that gets ahead well you'd have to add jet propulsion to it because any any speed that it gets right now is from the rubber meeting the road the tire the actual tires so yeah I really know this is very mysterious and we need some Falcon 9 magic but you know yeah musk in the past you know he had some crazy ideas but they're they're typically not just like him throwing out random nonsense he's actually something behind it so right we'll see yeah well we like rocket League yeah would be great for you know who's shooting goals yeah that yeah hashtag goals hey the Samsung Galaxy X the iPhone X has just recently launched amidst a flurry of publicity and whatnot the Galaxy X which apparently has been in development for a while there's been rumors of a galaxy X device for a long time so not necessarily them just biting on the Sam on the on the iPhone X name or anything like that but the model number SMG eight eight eight and at zero has been sort of floating around for a little while there were some new sketches of this and I think we briefly showed this on the show that showed a foldable I could you guys can see this but because they have been working on foldable Oh le D displays although there's still a lot of other components in the device that can't fold so can't necessarily make a completely foldable thing but this one shows sort of a flip designed with the foldable area in the middle and an LCD or an O LED display that it's such a yeah it looks like it's so four times as tall as it is wide yeah so I mean but it might be interesting if it contiguous display across the middle using that extra real estate for on screen you know keyboards and that kind of thing the ability to type or do interaction without necessarily having to you know eat up a lot of your screen real estate or just the fact that you have more screen real estate to work with but the news as of today is the fact that there is a new support page for this device on the Samsung Korea website for that specific model number SMG eight eight eight and zero the n zero apparently indicates it's the it's for the Korean market eight eight as a model number just knowing something about luck I don't know does that mean it's super lucky usually the number eight is lucky that seem like a model number that they would choose for something that they want to do really well not really sure but unfortunately there's no new information to be gleaned as far as spec so that kind of thing from the product page itself there is a little bit in the article about some of the stuff that's already known such as they've gotten Bluetooth and Wi-Fi certification they're expecting that it'll use a snapdragon 835 processor because the 845 processor is not official enough yet probably not far enough along in the development cycle but a foldable phone would be pretty cool to see I kind of want to see like a reversing would've the flip phone but with the folding screen right I guess I kind of just want to see what it would be useful for other than being like hey lookit folds it's cool what you could open up your phone why sweet okay that's all for our standard tech news segment let's move on sword fight oh wait no no it's oh wait oh yeah yeah hold on one more pull here I got out of order though and I close things and I need a dish it's this this is this is a random quick story about a new product from xpg we all love our gb right so how about an r gb SSD heat sink what the new xpg storm RGB m2 SSD heatsink that's right someone it looks like it looks like a mini GPU yeah it looks very thick I'm very tall kind of this is an aluminum heatsink with a fan integrated oh no that's gonna be noisy as shit for your m2 SSD according to x PG 25% schooler is what you can expect when it comes to temperatures on your little and vme SSD that's compared of course to a bear m2 SSD with no active cooling or heatsink or anything on it some scenarios might see even better cooling like if you have a fan pointed at it - or something like that's but it does have the standard 4 pin RGB connection so makes it compatible with Asus or a sync gigabyte RGB fusion MSI mystic like for example I was going to point out they have different various various ways of connecting it such as the direct PSU connection in which case it would have a standard RGB aesthetic which I imagine would just be sort of an RGB cycle or you can plug it in with the RGB control wire and then you can sync it up with the rest of your stuff but I imagine of our viewers is probably tons of people immediately buying this that's my expectation on you you know all right let's move on to swordfight we're gonna have a little bit of a an arguments here as we briefly discuss EA's recent fight milk somewhat recent to clarify this kind of blow-up earlier today it's not that recent as far as the firing goes but it does reflect on EA's recent actions when it comes to the games that they have acquired whether they've developed them in-house or whether they have purchased other development houses and then done whatever the hell they want to with their actual intellectual property so George fan was one of the original creators of plants vs. zombies he was laid off by EA back in 2012 actually he worked for PopCap PopCap was acquired by EA and then they went and fired 50 PopCap employees in 2012 he also coincidentally unrelated Lee is against a lot of EA's decisions when it comes to the pay2win model sort of model of plants vs. zombies too that's what EA did with the popular title of plants vs. zombies they made plants vs. zombies - there was a lot more geared towards making money than it was being a fun game to play and it not doing as well but of course still made money for EAS EA so assumably presumably they were happy again the termination of his employment did not coincide with his feelings towards the freemium model scene and plants vs. zombies - nevertheless we're gonna argue wait sorry why are we talking about it if it happen in 2012 because me up as a story because there was an interview about it where it was discussed and suddenly it became like oh EA fired this guy because he disagreed with their free-to-play model so this is the first time I'm spending what they're paid it they're there because he disagreed with their pay to win mod model but no no it but it was a misunderstanding so that became the story they fired him because of that but then he tweeted about it and then more people who were involved followed up about it and it was clarified no he was fired along with 50 other PopCap employees because because EA is shitty and they bought PopCap and then they fired a bunch of their employees including the creator of one of the most popular games that that was made so this recent article is just saying this recent article isn't who says he would sort of read it's sort of resurfacing this okay originally it was yes the story was ei fired him because he disagreed with their pain um one model for plants versus zombies - right since then it was clarified that's not why he was fired okay but EA still bought PopCap and took plants vs. zombie is an awesome game and made shitty follows it follow-ups to it in the EA style so what we're gonna argue about here is what popular game EA should target next which popular game or game franchise should he a purchase and then L we ruin and we have several oh man we got the Grand Theft Auto franchise from Rockstar the minecraft gram franchise from I guess it's minecraft game for Mojang now and by Microsoft I already know what I'm choosing Final Fantasy of course Super Mario Brothers Pokemon I'm player unknowns battlegrounds League of Legends and I added an other there because of course there are many many other options here EA would kill to get to acquire the Pokemon company and make that pay to win because you just got a bunch of like typically it attracts a younger crowd and that's not to say that older people don't play it - I know it's immensely popular with older crowds and stuff I'd play pokemon right now if I had a de essence it's like but I couldn't yet I can imagine EA trying to target that I mean plants vs. zombies a lot of younger people play that too and younger people will younger people who have the money who have like an allowance or whatever or you know young kids are getting credit cards for kidding left and right it was crazy I know I know kids again it's it's madness it's managed time limit I think you've exhibited more like old dude stuff today that I've seen you do in a while my hair is thinning out I'm getting this receiving here what's happening you know I can't stay awake after 10:00 p.m. it's it's it's a problem I'm getting old it's happening and so I feel like Pokemon is a prime target it's a prime target for ei they're gonna attack all the little kids little kids their daddy's credit cards and stuff just making all these micro transactions on simple dollar here dollar dollar their kids obsess more than anyone else on average about video games and winning right and I think pokemons a great start it's a great thing to attack and go after I mean the other ones too I could see you know Minecraft obviously a lot of younger kids play that too I'm sure a lot of your kids play League of Legends Pokemon though is something that's it's been around for so much longer than any of these other IPs to be honest that I could see it just being a game changer for yeah it could be one of their most lucrative IPs get when it comes to micro transactions and a pay to win model those kids are competitive I tell ya they're competitive shit okay I have various thoughts when it comes to the sexual arguments like should I choose the thing that I think will actually win should I choose the thing that I think will be the least detrimental to like society as a whole if VA Brad were to actually go and destroy one of these beloved you know intellectual properties or franchises or whatever ultimately I want to go with what I think is maybe the most actually functionally practical which would be player nouns battlegrounds yes on the one hand super popular right now so I think there's lots of people who who are invested in enough in to that they'd be like oh that's the game I play I'm gonna vote for that second blue hole you know relatively unknown game developer prior to now you know this is their first breakout hit and everything so I feel like that is kind of one of the the aspects of that might make them a little bit more susceptible to a buyout or something like that so practically speaking oh yeah you know maybe that's something that's more you know you take something like you know rock star or Square Enix and a Nintendo or whatever like they're not going to be bought out like right there never know yeah Nintendo's never going to sell the Super Mario Brothers property granted I'm sure you and be happy to buy it and destroy it yeah and maybe people want that to happen but there you go so I'm going to say a player knows battlegrounds and let's see yeah it seems the most practical see what you guys have to say about this one boom I was a great win oh my god Pub gee you win yeas player noon this pentagrams piays player nuns bella grands oh ii doubt it's like you got to pay $1 every time do you want it you want to dive out of the plane like you can you can join any game you want or even the plane was a go fuck that like combine that with the all the early access bugs no plane early like you have to wait an extra 30 seconds on the plane unless you pay the dollar which you have the option to do every single time half the time and night then a bunch of people get a 30-second head start on getting a weapon and that's and that's exactly this is another reason why EA would want to buy them up is because half the time with while it's still in early access I can barely jump out of the plane and pub G without it crashing on me which would mean I'd just be racking up the dough playing crappy every time no the plan doesn't cry the game crash the game crashes buddy system are you playing on because that never happens to me the only system that oh oh oh ok there you go I get some random ass crashes of the puppy really how often do you play pub G though I've been benchmarking it a decent amount and I haven't had any crashes but ok I don't know I'm sure there's other parts you'll it'll it'll come around alright and now for the title segments wait wait hold on hold on I'm not ready not ready give me about 10 seconds I have to click this 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 ok seconds those are just numbers well since you first said that sentence it's been about 7 seconds now you're right and now you have now we're ready in 2 now it's 10 second for hey that was that are you guys impressed with all of Paul's preparation for that war so happy so happy for that all right the sacraments him my way way way too loud don't do that that echo lol I'm deaf I have a boner okay interesting people people Steve okay everyone's reacting a little bit differently than that okay that will circle back to it first off look into it I'm tales from space the first-ever interstellar visitor I don't know if that can be confirmed but the first ever recorded interstellar visitors to our solar system is this thing right here what does that mean he's from a different it's outside of our solar outside of our solar solar system this is the first object from outside of our solar south side of our solar system that we've recorded entering our solar system really typically what we see is you know comments on asteroids whatever that are all from within our solar system wow this is a cigar-shaped asteroid that's been tracked since mid-october and automated sat telescopes spotted its it appeared as if it had been dropped into the solar system from above at an angle so that suggests that it comes from outside of our solar system elsewhere in space so a team of Australian astronomer has rushed out a paper on this object they've named it one l / 2017 u1 oh ma sorry Oh mwah mwah it's fine if my if my Hawaiian is with me Oh mwah mwah roughly means first messenger sure the 1l indicates that it's the first interstellar object that's been recorded by modern astronomers it passed between the Sun and the orbit of mercury is it can kind of see right here drop down see it's coming down most of our circles are this way this one's coming down from like a like where the hell did you come from so fast between the orbits of mercury and the Sun dropped down and then came back up and passed out between the orbits of Mars and Earth so how close did you get to earth within a mile I just saw it like you know like a Tele yeah it was a plane and those like the asteroid right next to it they were like side-by-side it was not close to Earth at all no there was never any concern of it actually encountering or is there anything the main you know thing to talk about here is that it is it is an extra extra solar system old object I just made that crazy extra solar system old object and it is cigar shaped of course of coral is a technical phrase for cigar shaped is a tri-axial ellipsoid which measures 80 vais call it cigar shaped and pole 80 by 80 by 100 meters as far as the length is that a thousand meter I'm sorry anybody by a thousand meters I was gonna say are you reading on vase amounting yeah standards so it's going to look like a couple football fields which is pretty crazy it's spinning very quickly and it emits a faint red glow but it changes due to the do the rotation of it so over a seven point three hour period the amount of light reflected from the object changes by a factor of over two point five is there any chance of us like sending it something out there to gather probably not because this kind of dropped in unexpectedly in a weird angle and I wasn't there wasn't enough time to like you know launch on its trajectory and launched something like an intrepid for Mt of like you know the the used they usually do oil drilling and like extreme environments but they were hired by the government to go like up to this asteroid to drill for some special metal or substance that sounds like you're getting pretty conspiracy theory on me right I'm just trying to write a blockbuster movie like a summer just there just add Kurt Russell yeah it'll be an instant wait so what if this is like finally aliens are trying to contact us with this asteroid they literally just like threw it down in the horse is like you're look there's like a very deep and coded message like yes to this and we'll never see it this is our one sound like a chancer I've got spaceship or anything with technology it's just it's rock it's a paper plane that they just threw in but it's got a message nice it's like a very dense rock because they specifically were comparing it to like a comet when a comment goes around the Sun it heats up and it vents a bunch of gas and stuff like that it vented ten million times less matter than you would expect to see vented by a comet and so it is it's more like an asteroid or just a rocket dense cigar shaped rock sometimes a big cigar shaped rock is just a big cigar shaped Rock Cal rock hard rock nice alright earthquakes maybe there will be more earthquakes next year what do you think everyone keeps saying that we're due for a big one here in Southern California that was to be I mean it's been a while everyone's like we know wow we'd probably do like don't say that so just to clarify this is a space.com article and they like to use you know and related language from time to time so I want to I want to be more clear here so this is based on the study of periods of slow rotation of the earth over the last one 100 years which is a regular and recurring thing a tiny slow down and it's rotation next year a tiny slowdown Anas Earth's rotation could potentially trigger more earthquakes than usual as indicated by this article changes in Earth's rotational speed can be caused by weather patterns like El Nino ocean currents as well as currents in the molten core of the planet apparently when the the fluids in the planet speed up the solid parts of the earth's slowdown like the Earth's crust for example as the Earth spins slows slightly the equator shrinks because the earth is an oblate spheroid as you all know obviously and as it spins around the part in the middle it's bit fatter because it's spinning right so it spins and centrifugal force fatter in the middle so a slight slowdown of that spin would cause the fat part in middle to be less fat which which which shrinks it down a little bit the tectonic plates though that make up the Earth's crust don't shrink down so easily so the added stress can lead to an increased chance of earthquakes on average there's about 15 major earthquakes per year at least since modern record-keeping has been going on and since about 1900 but during certain periods the planet sees more like 25 to 35 earthquakes greater than magnitude 7 per year so going from 15 to 25 or 35 is a pretty significant increase and according to this study those increases in earthquakes also correlates to the slowdown of the Earth's rotation as caused by the previously mentioned factors NASA tracks the length of the day to the microseconds so the slowdowns in the Earth's spin can be predicted five years in advanced based on that data the earth is entering entering a period of prolonged slow rotation and as a result might be more earthquakes next year something of great concern to us here in Southern California is where as as well as I'm sure many other areas around earth that are near two major fault lines but um yeah well those Doomsday Preppers are probably freaking out that's gonna be done I hope we don't all die there we go let's move to something more visually appealing Jupiter has a bunch of clouds and storms constantly going on and this is really cool picture of this storm on Jupiter that was recently captured by the Juno spacecraft this was captured on October 21st I'm sorry October 24th it was taken when Juno was six thousand two hundred and eighty-one miles or ten thousand 108 kilometers from the planets cloud tops in the northern hemisphere of Jupiter the image scale is 4.2 miles per pixel Wow so every pixel in this image is four point two miles across or six point seven kilometers resembles the swirling past out passed out clouds of a Vincent van Gogh painting starry night perhaps yes sort of sort of evocative of the star van Gogh yes of course and excuse me pardon my french the storm is rotating counterclockwise it's a wide range of cloud altitudes the darker clouds are expected to be deeper in the atmosphere than the brightest clouds will sure so there you go Wow excellent new wallpaper for any of you guys trippy a17 for your phone forget Jupiter final story here on tales from space a 61 year old DIY enthusiast and stuntman named Mad Mike Hughes Mike youth he's planning his first man's launch of a homemade 20,000 steam powered rocket went with research Flat Earth written on the side launched on Saturday this picture here is a is an orbital ATK Antares rocket has nothing to do with that this actually he's gonna he's gonna surf on a rocket they easily he's really on a rocket he's gonna be it's it's a manned rocket mission he's actually controlling I have no the article doesn't really detail any actual research that might be or information that might get gathered by someone who is as as mad Mike Hughes is an admitted flat earther he will launch into the skies above the Mojave Desert ghost town of Amboy that up to 500 miles per hour for roughly one mile attaining a peak altitude altitude of 1,800 feet before the rocket deploys two parachutes so so that's kinda fascinating he has been known to do this in the past in fact there's several YouTube videos linked in the article for instance this rocket launch that he did before he got a Guinness World Record in 2002 for jumping 102 feet and a Lincoln Towncar stretch limo that's his day job is he's a limo driver this is his other rocket launch a steam rocket flight from 2014 went up 1374 feets look at that parachute it's all busted yeah the parachute looks like it's not in the best shape here sure this lowered it seems to be plenty of holes in there oh my god although it did appear to be a successful flight it did are certifiably insane it didn't have three days of recovery time in the hospital due to the extreme g-forces and the ref descent from from that flight there there's something very troubling about one of the one of the comments in your doc notes here what's that says Hughes does not believe in science what she told the AP has no difference from science fiction yeah leads me to believe that this guy is not just some savant or some genius scientist he's just kind of Spacey so alright so he's actually he's either crazy and stupid or he's just someone who knows he can say crazy things to get attention and hey we're talking about him right now so maybe that's working this event simultaneously serves also as the launch of his California gurbin gubernatorial campaign he's running for governor of California but our our great state here on the west coast of the United States so maybe this is just a publicity stunt or maybe he believes the things he's actually saying I mean you got to be a little bit stupid to be like a crazy stunt man he says I know about aerodynamics and fluid dynamics and how things move through the air about certain size of rocket nozzles and thrust but that's not science that's just a formula there's no difference between science and science fiction yeah he's great he's ready too many books yeah did we mention he's a flat earther oh he's a flat earth in the chain yeah that's kind of the breeze cut over the headlines flat earther okay you didn't catch that at the beginning no I know he believes versus what okay well okay that makes perfect sense all right so the earth is totally flat that wraps up our tales from space we're surfing on a pancake in space we're just like whoo Earth's a pan or a big cigar do see this guy yeah all right let us wrap up today's show with some Q&A we got some donation comments have come in Lord I've burped a little bit there sorry about that righteous all right first off from wait did we get Gerald five bucks Thank You gerald if you're watching also I think Grim Reaper we forgot Grim Reaper grim reaper 1080 with the five bucks I always miss the pen my PC messages only I think we did we do him forever cool thank you the wrong price nine or wrist nine wrist I have a ten Argentinian our Australian sorry hey you guys keep with a good work hey Paul how's the new wheels new wheels are drinks BEM Trek I really love my new truck it's really fun to drive I need to have more thing I need to come up with more things to carry around in it but thank you for your donation five bucks salutations gents by a new 1080p monitor is 32 inch too big should I go with 27 inch thanks guys much love for male jefe I personally think 27 is probably the better option just because I feel like anything larger than that it starts to feel I would not quite as crisp I would try to keep an eye out for in 27-inch 1440 I think that's a good solution there yeah if it's in the budget definitely go with 14 32 is definitely too big for 1080 everything is so huge yeah it's just I'd say it's poised e32 if you go above 27 inches I'd say 1440p or 4k it very least yeah Gerald gerald $5 hiya fellas might I suggest a streamer to raid lil red Hydra I'm sure she would appreciate a nice awesome hardware raid / love that is all Cheers so if you feel like it is a good idea to host this little red Hydra then by all means let us know down below in the doc he's already got somebody else signed up okay well then this cool little to sell that I said you know yes your home's his moods change with the wind so you know he's very mysterious Shazzer be three one four nine one five dollars should I buy a $350 Dell 1440p 144 Hertz g-sync TN monitor on Black Friday if I have a 1050 TI but looking to upgrade eventually when GPU prices fall cesare saw that deal that's a crazy deal it's been leaked out they're very very low price for the size refresh rate and resolution of that monitor nice and it's TN but it's still an amazing deal but yeah and I also feel like TNS but TN I mean if you want if you want those other specs at that at at 1440 and 144 Hertz and gsync for $350 it's gonna be TN I cannot get any get away from that yeah and TN I mean there's a variety of TN panels and some are better than others so I would say yeah I mean if you got the money go for it that's a very nice upgrade you can you can do G sink with 1050 Ti and a lower power graphics card is actually a very good combination with g-sync because you can can I get the most out of it for your money and if you're planning on upgrading your GPU to in the future yeah I'd say I'd say that's it go for it try to look at the quality in person before you buy that listen to Kylie's do it but yeah if you can if you can't take a look in person definitely that's worth it too for sure Scott Dilbeck you see I wasn't 66 cents have a good Thanksgiving guys who else agrees that they should make a new timesplitters game I love time splitters back in the day I played that straight all the time specifically time splitters to on GameCube I played with my friends by myself all the time yeah that'd be it that was a great game it was a good first-person shooter I've never played had really good multiplayer play and there was like also a map editor use like one of the first FPS is where you could create your own map and and play with friends in it and stuff who's well based on what Cal has said just now I completely agree and say yeah 100% thank you Scott Steven hill I'm not the only person who likes manual trucks with four-wheel drive on an unrelated note keep up with the content gentlemen Thank You Steven thank you it was excellent to see you on Saturday and I follow you on twitter now Jota sure Ted hopefully the net stays free and I can afford to keep supporting you guys keep a tional here Kyle don't even have to say it twice you drink too much and might wear out your ID Jenn to rise and soon I were kind of hoping we're kind of hoping 20 20 18 might show us some Zen to based stuff cute my you my guess would be probably you know around coputex be but it's still really early we haven't heard too many rumors at all but things crossed hopefully here soon Tyler forums where a $5 just an idea you guys could auction off your extra hardware when you do the charity stream and donate proceeds keep up the good work guys Tyler that is a consideration but we're mostly going to be our optioning off the two systems that we are we've built my system is a entry level shredder per system which has 1,900 X as well as a bunch of other really awesome hard Hardware is that your only 1900 X yeah I bought it I've only got one y really got one did you get a 1900 I did yeah I mean I don't think they did much sampling in the 1900 X yeah but um that's a good CPU though yeah I mean it's very solid CPU and the sense of gender per the overclocking on it's like even running it stock out of the box it was hitting for for one or for two gigahertz on a single or a couple cores which is pretty nice it's got an inner max BlueTEC liquid CPU cooler and a gtx 1070 TI from ZOTAC so it's very solid system and the search panel system is gonna be equally epic it will be equally better great yes that's probably gonna be slightly better ever slightly better than mine equally better all right machine beats you 10 bucks what camera do you guys use to stream quality is nice gh4 thank you - right now GH 5 is the camera but a GH 4 would work just fine as well the capture card is the Blackmagic 4k ro intensity pro or just just just like a black magic for can capture on my channel and I have the PCIe right yeah it's a PCI Express 1 and it captures in 4k so yeah it captures in 4k but we're capturing at 1080 60 right now which is what's nice and sharp is the 60fps but yeah it's a good combination for order sexy I need one of those Steven we are men five bucks Windows 10 creators update has an app for Dolby Atmos and a $15.00 option for simulated at most for any headphones if you have tried it what do you think I have not and after Dolby Atmos I have I have not tried that all I feel like a $15.00 is a lot to spend for something like that like yeah you're gonna be a serious Auto audiophile with with like the cans to back it up to back up the justification it's the software thing and if it's part of the update yeah yeah I'd wait for some reviews on that and some feedback on that to flow out before actually buying it up I already couldn't provide more info coal tender $5 hey could two gtx 970 SS CS or super super clocked sli run all games of 2560 by 1080 just wondering just got a second card and was wondering you should be good I think you'll be fine you might hit I mean doesn't support you know you might hit a memory cap at some point cuz you are limited I kind of 3.5 total still on that but 2560 by 1080 isn't that high of resolution so you're probably gonna be good for the most part if anything you might have to disable certain filters that eat up a lot of Ihram yeah and you should be okay just run you know run some software where you can keep an eye on GPU memory usage like precision X or MSI Afterburner or something like that and check it out with the games that you play and see if that's actually an issue that you're encountering um but yeah I think I think that actually would be a pretty decent combination for resolution and GPU yeah and I should we've mentioned a million times but if you have the option one single faster graphics card is always gonna be better than two slower ones yeah in SLI or crossfire Alex Weber $5 Paul Kyle I built my first PC last week thanks to you would love to meet some new people honestly since I have no PC friends gryzzl sauce Cheers alright everyone had Grizzles sauce on Steam to yours awesome gryzzl sauce the cheese gryzzl sauce steam raid steam raid steam radon gryzzl sauce there we go gryzzl sauce all right thanks grizzle sauce thanks Alex chill out dad our final donation for the 5 Canary earth five canary yes and even he yes you're catching on awesome hardware dupes grass what's that mean thanks for the birthday shout-out last week this is for you guys cheers Jason PS remember to floss what's dude you guys to me I don't know I think it's a drug reference probably probably which we totally don't get understand that at all but those are all the donations for two days thank you so much now to dad we do have some internet haven't you okay oh yeah I have to know I do Sergio Sergio Pete with the bio splasher shirt thank you very much sir Joseph wait ooh either Joseph failure Joseph F I can't tell what which one you are but you're from Fullerton you're really local wow you're very close to us like down the thumbscrew trucker cap noice and we got one another one from Sergio to different orders from the same guys picking up an evolution heavy metal gray shirt thank you sir Tyler P from Washington got the mug 11 ounce mug and the thumbscrew bottle opener Johnson to you Tyler thank you so much and finally Dakota Dakota todavĂ­a from Texas where everything's bigger you got the awesome hardware RGB everything she said the dark gray Heather version she all right we are doing a twitch raid this is referred by our good friend and moderator cell processing yourself we're gonna be ready reading jenna gamer sin je na 1 n 1 n je na Jenna gamer G Amer sin si mi and we will be hosting her as well from our channel so if you want to just stay put on Twitch you can do so otherwise guys yeah go over there tell her we said hi yeah 10 thumbs up button on this video of course if you missed the first half check out Kyle's channel it's linked in the video's description beyond that we will be back next week with another live show and in the interim we're gonna have tons of awesome technology videos on our channels so subscribe to them thank you all so much for watching thanks to twitch for being here live and being awesome
