Awesome Hardware #0136-B: YouTube Rules Change, A 512GB MicroSD Card & Violent Video Games

2018-01-23
that's good that's a good - hmm momaday - prayer to me whenever I'm starting the live show I always imagined that for a few people it's the first time they've ever seen or experienced anything like that so that always makes me very kind of scared a little scared oh it's all right though okay yeah I think where it looks like rely ever streaming and everything's good so hello everyone and welcome this is awesome hardware it's a live show we stream it every Tuesday evening at 5:30 p.m. Pacific time to twitch.tv slash awesome hardware which is our shared twitch channel and we also stream it to our YouTube channels so the first half of today's show which is episode number 136 we've already streamed to Kyle's channel bit wit it's linked in the video description so if you didn't watch that you can go ahead and check it out we've been drinking a few beers and we've been talking about technology and we're gonna continue doing that for another hour or so now on my half of the show here on pulse hardware whoo it's gonna be great a quick word of warning to any of you guys who are have young children or that kind of thing we occasionally use adults language here on the show we speak freely and openly and of course there's some some beverages and vibed and whatnot we encourage you to do so as well if you are doing so responsibly of course and/or your age and all that kind of things all right I think I think we're doing okay so far I'm gonna do a quick plug here as we usually do for our stores if you want to help support us and get yourself some cool merchandise very high-quality stuff check out Paul's hardware net you can buy stuff from my store there if you buy stuff during the show will shout Johnson and your name at you at the end of the show it's a fascinating ritual which I don't completely understand myself but yeah we keep doing we do it any whatever the less excuse me tiles store is bit wit tech slash store he also has high quality goods all comes from the same location and it's all it's all good stuff so if you buy stuff thank you for helping to support us yeah and everything yeah all right buy stuff now do it I quickly need to address something and buy quickly I mean like super quickly because I don't want to talk about this too much ok but I haven't really posted any videos this week and if you follow me on Twitter I tweeted a couple things or earlier this week about I'm having kind of a rough time and I promise to share a little bit more today on the live show I'm not gonna go into any crazy details or anything at this because this is pretty personal and everything ends as already mentioned we've been doing some drinking and whatnot so I don't want to say anything anyway um understandable alright so I am married and my wife and I as married people often do have been trying to have a kid and actually we were successful in in in the creation of a of a kid several months back and we had just gotten to the point where we were starting to share with people when at the beginning of January we got some really bad news unfortunately our child had a condition which was terminal and it's not survivable so as of this past week when we're no longer pregnant and the little girl we were expecting to arrive and the summer is no longer gonna be arriving so um we've been really really sad and it's been very challenging and probably some of the most difficult things just to deal with that I've ever gone through so so I've I haven't haven't that much content production and I don't think anyone would blame you at this point and my wife and I have done a lot of crying and everything but we fortunately we have a really good group of friends and family who can really support it forest and so that's been really cool and very helpful but I just wanted to I guess tell you guys if if I haven't been myself or if I haven't been doing stuff the way I usually do that's that's the reason behind it so anyway oh I messed that you're like here doing this show right well I like you you guys have shown some tremendous strength well padding's can say see the scene happening and disease CES was rough to get there and everything but yeah so yeah thanks to all you guys who have been tweeting us like I said earlier this week when I tweeted I'm pretty pretty vaguely and stuff there's just so many people who said so many wonderful positive things for us so thank you guys for all of that yeah anyway alright now that I've said that let's let's move over to the show proper and I'll talk about some tech news and anything so let's start off second half as we usually do with tech news tech news yay for tech news as good as we do you know there's not a whole lot of it going on actually right now I mean most of the tech news right now is hey graphics cards are really expensive and memory is really expensive and it sucks but read who makes cameras has been rebuilding a smartphone and we've kind of talked about a little bit here on the show so so far but earlier this week they came out with a bunch more news about - the hydrogen one which is their smartphone which also has a holographic display and actually they opened up pre-orders for this last year right back when we first talked about it in July so people have been pre-ordering this for $1,200 since July and I don't know how many peers they have going on or whatever but more details now nice it's got a snapdragon 835 X SOC and a system-on-chip processor they were I read a couple things that said it might be a customized one but nothing very clear about that it's kind of dual sim configuration which i think is kind of cool you can either have two SIM cards so two phone numbers or do different carriers that kind of thing or one of them's I don't know if one or both of them is a hybrid slot so you could have one a SIM card and one is a micro SD card so cool microSD expansion which is always super super nice it's not like a proprietary read micro SD card the cost $9 and out as far as I know okay the read I know the read storage devices for their cameras can be very expensive so I hope that's I wouldn't expect them I don't think they can call it micro sd and have proprietary let's truth going on in there but hopefully that's not the case yeah 4500 milliamp hour battery listening yeah should hopefully have really good battery life the weight is listed as 2 ounces heavier than a typical 5.7 inch device which is sort of vague and nonspecific but what's a typical 5.7 inch device large enough of the large you know iPhone plug the big screen cell phones basically ok it's you're gonna expect it to be a little bit heavier than that and that's because it's supposed to be more sturdy is this and this is also a 5.7 inch device yes it is a 5.7 inch screen so got it that would that would fall in line with that okay it does have a headphone jack props for that I don't know how much longer we're gonna be able to tell people hey good they put a headphone jack yeah multi-channel spatial surround through stereo speakers are headphones the display is a 1440p resolution and holographic 4 v so what they're calling the actual display name mean a holographic 20 and 4 V it means that when you look at this from above it can do simulated three-dimensional hologram I haven't seen it myself so it's hard for me to say specifically how what it looks like or if it's useful at all or anything like that but you can supposedly use the camera to shoot for V contents front and rear without an add-on module or anything like that via just via the built-in front and rear cameras there's talking about unprecedented carrier support so that hopefully means that they have already worked out deals with multiple carriers to be able to get it with you know with the two-year with a contract plan or something like that that's not a very useful way to get a really nice phone for not having to pay a big up for a cost if you're planning on sticking with your carrier here for a couple of years anyway probably gonna have demos of the phone and April and launch is coming sometime in the summer so again nice Pacific but summer launch but probably in April we'll see at least mkbhd yeah I'm sure Austin Evans and John TLT those guys will be content on those we'll see more of the hydrogen one I have not pre-ordered a 200 I'm still super happy with my pixel tube I don't get enough views on myself on any cell phone videos I've ever done so weren't pre-ordering something like that that's true o us in the in the PC in the PC DIY space yeah for the man out when it comes to mobile next up Amazon go is now a thing it has debuted up in Seattle at least okay Ars Technica Ars Technica has an article on it we talked about this before Amazon goes basically the idea of a store a brick-and-mortar store that you physically go into with Amazon app on your phone and you walk in you're recognized via the app you buy take whatever stuff you want then you walk out and it's it knows what you took in it bills you to a preset up card that you have attached your account - that kind of thing sure know the premise of the story is all those all based around cameras watching you all the time I actually saw this store in Seattle I saw a tweet of it with a big old line out front but hopefully that was short-lived because it seems not to might not make much sense to have a big line in front of a store that's entirely based around not waiting in line for anything but there it is up in Seattle it's got a crazy camera system going on an overhead with hundreds of cameras they watch you know this is the system that that where you walk in through and basically scans you or it scans your app these you no longer need a prime account for this store all you have to have is to Amazon Go app so a smartphone basically with with the app on it and there's a turnstile that reads a barcode from the app when you walk in and then the cameras track you the whole time and watch what you do and see what what products you take and put into your bags little orange bags provided by Amazon to walk around with and do your shopping and I know well all these pictures look like they were taken very hastily yeah this is the view looking up though and here's where you can see all the different arrays of sensors and cameras and everything like that which is the thing that seems like both the unique and innovative thing about the store but also the thing where you're like and really get screwed up like all of this technology is making this store somehow more profitable than a store that just has people who yeah check you out and make sure that you buy stuff for whatever I mean over time I would I guess yeah if it's functional and you know and it doesn't need time shooting done every hour on the hour yeah they do sell beer wine and liquor there is a physical person I guess back in jaeyun in that area of the store that will check your ID and whatever and the author of this article Sam much much Quebec Sam match Quebec tried his very best to trick the system to fool it to steal basically from Elsa he almost got away with some yogurt okay how did he that was mainly because he figured out that if you need to return something you basically just tell the app I don't like this thing and it's like alright okay yeah cuz you don't really need to return it it just I think it just refunds you or whatever oh so who knows if that type of thing will be taking advantage of but he tried like do you tried to trick it by like picking up a thing and looking at the label and putting it back or picking up multiple things and swapping them around in his hands and all that kind of thing wasn't able to fool their system though according to what he said hmm probably largely due to the fact that everything is sort of positioned at its own little aisle with its width separated separation between things so it knows what you've taken and what you're putting back and everything like that but look even batteries and feminine hygiene products goods good times someone's gonna have in a way to keep this yeah someone will but yeah all the time people just you pick up the stuff you want walk out and then in about 15 minutes you get an email with your receipts and it will charge whatever payments method you have attached to your Amazon account no the Amazon Go app so you don't have to actually scan any any items that you check out with no in your bag and walk away just pick things up and walk out because when you when you first go in the store and scan yourself in it starts tracking you as an entity right and whatever you take its associates with you as a your entity and that it's your you as an entity is associated with that account and it knows what usually can solely based on the cameras that are above for you yeah cameras and sensors and I don't know like I don't know everything as far as what they have a raid like I don't know if those sensors in the actual food dispenser parts of it or if it's all just cameras and everything going on overhead I wonder if it base I needs you somehow from what I have from from the way the article describes it no it doesn't all it has to do is figure out the ear person and then it can do enough tracking of people moving around the store to figure out who you are and that you're the same person as you're moving from place to place right and then it's just a matter of tracking the products that you pick up hmm I wonder if the all those products aren't a sensor of some sort like even like you know a bottle of Tabasco is on like some little sensors that it no I feel like they keep it in a basket if you get a hotel they can they can have like a little button yeah it detects if you pick up a bag of mms or whatever right that I feel like yeah that's right amazon should have access to that technology as well yeah I'm just wondering if that's what they're using or if they're using something more like sophisticated I'm not sure I feel like there's probably stuff that they don't want to tell people because obviously that's a way to cheat people would try to take advantage of it yeah when they know it's a lot of misses fascinating though ya know what it is about autonomous systems though it's like oh that system is autonomous I want to try to cheat and scam it as much as I possibly can right versus a person it's like can you imagine having that mentality with a person like oh there's a person standing there trying to prevent stop dealing let's see everything I can do and steal from them machines when actual people yeah but that may soon change but there's a definite the robots can be a mentor-protege yes stun gun you to death yeah then maybe the tables will turn but hey if you want to steal from Amazon then maybe you'll feel more justified at least if you pay their monthly Prime membership because they've just checked up the price $2 yeah yes 11 to 13 the monthly Prime membership is going from 1099 a months to $12.99 a month percent increase while rates might only seem like $2 to you but crazy different when you consider it to be an 18% increase Wow or an extra 24 dollars per year although it wouldn't make much sense to suddenly pay $24 it was at $13 times 12 what is that it's a number 144 plus both so hundred an fifty $656 sure why would you pay a hundred and fifty six dollars a year when you could pay ninety nine dollars a year for the standard yearly Amazon Prime membership which has not changed it's still ninety nine dollars a year for that hmm really what this is all about is apparently there's a subset of people who sign up for Amazon Prime like maybe a couple times a year like signed up for it for a month for 1099 and order like all the stuff that you're gonna order for that third of the year or have it here or whatever get free shipping on it on slip then cancel it and then Amazon has paid $11 for you know 20 30 40 $100 worth of shipping or whatever so obviously those money so right this is them looking at their business model and saying all right we can increase this price a bit it's gonna affect this smaller subset of people who a smaller subset of them is taking advantage of this yeah and their way to fire back a little bit mitigate them their ability to take advantage of it and make up some of the money in the meantime yeah so yeah for most people who pay yearly proceed proceed continue paying zero before yeah yeah it's best way to go all right moving on moving on YouTube has changed their rules they're changing up the rules and this is a bit of a response to the ad pocalypse thing that was going on but they're basically they're tightening up the rules when it comes to smaller channels and when it comes to people who want to be involved with the YouTube Partner Program YouTube Partner Program is what allows you to monetize your videos to have YouTube feed ads at the beginning so that you can make money off of the content that you produce and YouTube calls these changes tough but necessary this is YouTube sort of thanks Logan Paul yeah this is this is no Logan Falls because YouTube's attempting to navigate the waters between what they have been in the past ten years developing themselves as the premier online upload and streaming video content platform to what they want to be which is a very profitable video streaming platform online and in order to be profitable with their business bottle you need to have advertisers and in order to have the really good advertisers who pay lots of money you need to make sure that their advertising on content that is advertiser friendly so enter the YouTube ad pocalypse and them flagging a lot of channels as you know we're not sure if you're legit if your content is controversial on that so you have limited ads this is all them attempting to create processes that are autonomous enough that they can have minimal human interaction and still somehow moderate the vast amount of content that is uploaded to YouTube every second of every single day which some of which they want to monetize and feed ads in front of which is a good idea for them to be able to make money yeah now all that said previously you needed 10,000 total views that's that was what you needed in order to get into the YouTube Partner Program which maybe is a lot maybe he's a little depending on whether or not you've had a video that took off now you need to also have 1,000 subscribers and 4,000 hours of you time over the past year so again this is either a very challenging thing to achieve or something that happened fairly quickly depending on whether or not yet because you can have a video a single video that gets enough views that it starts to get us into the suggested feed that hits these requirements in a day mm-hmm whereas you can have other people who upload videos consistently every week or maybe a couple times a week but you know they just don't have that video that takes off mm-hmm or they don't have I don't know what it exactly with that certain de jeunesse a quoi that's the video needs in order to get the views and everything like that so yeah the rules currently are gonna apply it to people who are trying to get in but they're also going to start applying these rules to current partners On February 20th so I mean no matter the size of those partners right exactly so even if you join the YouTube Partner prep platform four or five years ago based on your content upload and number of views and everything at the time if you are not currently and still getting enough views that being 10,000 total views thousand subscribers 4000 hours of view time over the past year then you might be removed from the partner program as well and I've definitely seen some tweets from some people who this affects in a pretty crappy way that being people who create content that's maybe informational but in a more niche type of area mm-hmm and that kept type of thing very helpful but not necessarily something that lots of people are gonna be viewing right I know that's kind of vague but pup shepherd one of our longtime viewers were saying that his channel is getting shut down yeah cuz he only meets that he doesn't meet the 4,000 watch time hours annual in order to to keep his channel sustained he only makes you know it gets about 2,500 hours which isn't too far off you know and he has 600 or so subscribers but YouTube's completely just canning his channel because he doesn't meet these new very new requirements yeah but I remember before like you could you could have posted two videos with like 100 views each and like you to be give you the option to monetize them YouTube is all about it yeah anyone anyone literally anyone can monetize their videos and now there's they're trying to please the advertisers advertisers are getting pissed how could you give this guy who has 5 subscribers who's you know spewing racial slurs or whatever any any of our airtime and so you know what one a few bad apples ruins it a bunch bunch of terrible terrible creators who are making content that is not advertising friendly are not respectful for the Terms of Service really basically are ruining it for the rest of us that's just how it is and it sucks because there are a lot of channels out there who are trying their hardest trying their best who are trying to meet these numbers in a really legal and fine way that just you know maybe they need that extra year so to to really break these numbers but they're getting cut off now because um you know it's tough but necessary now according to what I've read there probably isn't much of a chance that somebody who there's probably nobody who is completely reliant upon YouTube for all of their income who's suddenly getting that cut off because the cut off that they're making this out right now the level of viewership and everything is roughly equivalent to about a hundred dollars a year when it comes to revenue from YouTube so what this is doing is it's making it more challenging for people who have who or just getting started to get started more quickly mm-hmm because you got a kind of clark way in to the partner program and get yourself a following and everything and it's more challenging to do that of course if you're not making money any money off of it and it's very difficult for smaller or more niche channels who may be posting frequently or whatever but who enjoy the bit of extra income that comes along with that you know a little bit of a kickback for the time and effort that you put into creating content on YouTube is very nice to have and might help people get more equipment or anything like that yeah so definitely is challenging for some people if you're like looking at this from Google's perspective they're looking at a situation where they have a absolutely insane amount of video content uploaded to their platform every single second of every single day they are attempting to parse this to take the bulk of its that is not monetizable and separate that from the content that is monetizable yeah to make the monetizable contents a prettier package to be able to salt sell to advertisers you have to pay more money like but I want to make sure that their content is only being placed on videos that they find appropriate right so it's a balancing act and this is a decision that they've made for now we'll keep an eye on it and you know maybe maybe bring you guys some more feedback in a few weeks if we've heard from anyone who's been severely affected by this for now excuse me what I'm hoping this does is take some channels that we watch that we know yet that we know are well over this threshold I'm gonna point out like hardware in box for example mm-hmm who have been struggling with limited YouTube ad my limited advertisements on a lot of their videos yeah might now have more resources devoted to them to clearing their videos because there's a lot less video submitted to the manual approval process right so maybe that is a positive upshot from this yeah hopefully that's true YouTube might just be sort of investing in the partners who are a little bit more established instead of watering it down because they're trying to cater to literally everyone who is uploading a home video yeah so there's also apparently a something called Google preferred videos which is something that we need to get more of ourselves if your video is good enough to be a Google preferred video which I assume means it hits certain threshold of views or probably heats when it comes to views per viewer engagement yeah how are that kind of thing or if you just have a channel that consistently gets lots of views on all your videos that kind of thing in writing the algorithm that's probably not yours goes in the Google preferred video program these videos are manually curated and the ads running on these videos are only running on videos that have been verified to meet our ad friendly guidelines so this is like Google's premium program for like content they're gonna curate themselves they're gonna watch and make sure that there's no Logan Paul dead body is there anything like that in them yeah and as a result they're gonna be able to sell these to advertisers and say like look you're gonna pay more for this advertising package but you're gonna get you know all these views on these really good videos really good this is a solid real primetime content this is the real deal content which is good for the creator's in a sense because if you can get on to Google preferred you'll probably be making more purview oh yeah Adams a day that's detective Austin here I bet Austin gets in the Google preferred oh yeah I'm sure all those guys too anyway I'm not jealous oops just a name club also though and actually one of the things that that was one of the more useful ideas is they're introducing a new three-tier suitabilities system so ours right now I guess you kind of have three tiers because you have no monetization limited ads or you're good now they're having a three tier suitability system which probably means like you're good you're good for everything you're like maybe you're okay feels like a pg-13 rating or something like that right right like maybe here maybe in here you're not quite as family-friendly but hey it's kind of risque so I bet these videos are getting lots of views right right that kind of thing versus like the full-on like no this is the room dead bodies and pornography and yeah no but you want advertise on that at all future that seems a little bit more sensible to me as well right okay I'd probably be in the pg-13 area yeah I mean and that's fine and this show would probably be in the catch what they need because there's cuz as advertisers who like I don't care about the kids I'm I don't I'm not you know our target audience yeah our product I just buy another source of views and I get the money to spend so yeah so there we go so that that seems a little bit more sensible tonight okay let's talk about some actual hardware although it's very brief and very not normally it's that's a microSD card yeah look at that 512 gig 512 gig Materazzi her damn why significant we're in that it is a record-breaking full half terabyte of storage hm in this tiny little micro SD card slot molise as your pinky nail this is usurping the previous record-holder for capacity in a micro SD card which was held by SanDisk's Knapp crappy and terrible 400 gig micro SD obviously 512 gigs way back SanDisk's did hit 100 megabytes per second read though this one does 80 megabytes per second reads I'm not quite as fast it's classified as an SDXC UHS - I you one card which means it has a minimum write speed of 10 megabytes per second which is my most disappointing factor of this yeah 10 megabytes per second is not that great 4k is gonna be mostly okay with 10 megabytes per second but not a how 2% okay depending on the format that you're rating it to a mother it's lossless or how much loss eNOS is going on with it as well as the bitrate and that kind of thing should be able to handle full HD off of most video cameras but would be more exciting if it's 512 gigas well is just a bit faster of a write speed to make sure that when you're dealing what's really really do we know what the right speed is of the SanDisk no I don't know not positive I didn't put that in my own team I'd be interested to see what that is but if it's a u1 card then that's minimum ten megabytes per second mm that's just in order to meet the standard yeah this doesn't meet the v10 standard for video transfer rates designed to capture Full HD video office cameras no price unfortunately I'm guessing $400 yeah launches in February February everyone go out and buy them all right there's new segments new new segments segments where to go that much not watch yeah I'm sorry I'm an extra segment yes now watch we're gonna talk really briefly about a couple stories brainy we've talked about net neutrality a lot because we think it's important back in December and net neutrality was done away with by the currently current FCC but some states are fighting back Montana has become the first state to implement net neutrality by themselves as a States after the FCC repeal excuse me the Montana Governor Steve Bullock long signed an executive order on Monday requiring internet service providers with state contracts to abide by net neutrality principles according to Bullock this is a simple step states can take to preserve and protect net neutrality we can't wait for folks in Washington DC to come to their senses and reinstate these rules yeah and India if you talk about polls across the u.s. and most people most people like net neutrality want a net neutrality want it to be a thing want it to be a thing that we at least have some guarantee of some enforcement of the FCC was able to enforce it for quite some time or at least since about 2015 prior to that I was enforced by light-touch regulatory framework but then Internet service providers started pushing back against that and actually doing stuff that was outside of that causing the FCC to have to take legal action causing the Internet service providers to countersue the FCC which is what led to the FCC in 2015 saying all right we're just gonna classify you guys as to title to common carriers rather than title one which is what they had been before which gave the FCC the authority to enforce net neutrality and that was all fine and dandy for a couple of years until I should find the current FCC decided no we would rather apparently do what all of the Internet service providers want to do and what is in their best interest rather than an interest in most people and roll that back anyway that's a brief history of the net neutrality stuff over the past couple years but good on you Montana for going ahead with this because it is something that the states can take action on themselves granted something that was at the federal level would be better but maybe that will come around as well here's the second article from ARS technica about 21 the states suing the FCC to restore net neutrality rules nice that's Meghna newborn she is almost half the nation yeah twenty-one states in the District of Columbia oh I guess and sure half the nation that's right Kyle sounds it sounds better when you save them anyway she is one of the five FCC commissioners her and Jessica rosenworcel are the two Democratic FCC commissioners it is required by law by the way that the FCC be splits and not have more than a 3-2 majority by any parties so it was required for there to be two out of the five commissioners be Democrat versus Republican and as we talked about Democrat versus Republican stuff and lots of people might be more aligned with on the side or the other it's natural to hear something that might be against your party and to feel negative towards that we're not trying to make this a political discussion or whatever it just happens to be falling that way when it comes to how the opposite sides are voting we just have very strong feelings about net neutrality when it comes to technology and how we feel the internet should work and in this case it happens to be that the Democratic side appears to be the ones who are pulling for the rules and the configuration that we feel would be most appropriate yes that's why we're yeah it's not personal we're like if we ever like we're not speaking out or like hatin on Republicans we're speaking out and and and putting a magnifying glass on the people who don't support net neutrality just the Republicans just support matter job it just it just so happens that a lot of the people who don't support net neutrality are Republicans so this isn't really like we're attacking Republicans on the first note this is a transitive property thing or it's like we are speaking out against people who are against net neutrality most of the people who are against neutrality are in the Republican Party so that it's it's nothing personal it's just that it is what it is type of thing there you go so 21 states in the District of Columbia the states who are suing the FCC are New York California Connecticut Delaware Hawaii Illinois Iowa Kentucky Maine Maryland Massachusetts Massachusetts Minnesota Mississippi New Mexico North Carolina Oregon Pennsylvania Rhode Island Vermont Virginia and Washington and it just so happens that every US state with a democratic attorney general happens to be every state who's suing the FCC in this case the Republican state attorneys general did not feel that they should join in this particular petition for whatever reasons they might have these states filed a protective petition for review which essentially reserves them a spot in court challenges against the FCC so those of course ongoing challenges to the FCC's decision when it comes to that neutrality we will continue talking about it on this show because we think it's important and that is all for net watch for this week all right Night Watch let's move on to the final structured segment of today's show which is gonna be sword fight guys sword fight the classic long time segment where Cal and I argue about something and in this case we're gonna argue about video games mmm and violence violent video games do you know what have you ever been told that you plan your violent video games and that it's gonna make you be violence as well apparently that's not you're gonna end up killing everyone with a samurai sword cow that's that true at least according to the researchers at the University of York there they have found no evidence no there's oh they're supporting it they found no evidence no evidence to support the theory that video games make players more violence thank god they did a series of experiments with more than 3000 participants they studied stuff such as reaction time realism and then specifically looked at combat games of course the study is ongoing they discussed the need for further work to further distinguish more variables get more data points when it comes to researching this but as has been stated many times before someone who is predisposed to violence will be violent anyway will be violent with or without video games with or without in video games and as is evidenced here the video games may be a conduit for certain people who have a predisposition but playing violent video games does not make you violent no of course not there are no consequences in video games which is what makes it so such an unconvincing argument that it perpetuates violence in real life because when you commit a violent act in your life whether you're an adult or a kid their consequences their immediate repercussions for what you did oh you punched a little Timmy in the face well now you get a timeout then you get suspended from school you're currently pissed at you you punch some dude in the face in gta5 nothing happens to you you realize even as a young adult or a young child that it there's a huge difference there you don't necessarily think well because I crushed over five cars and 30 people in this tank rolling down you know little Santos Avenue that I can do that in real life and mom and dad won't be mad at me there's a huge disconnect there fortunately between video games and IRL that I think people are just always constantly looking for someone to blame or something to blame and video violent video games isn't easy I mean there's there's violence in American culture has violence everywhere we're one of the few cultures that actually have like super ultra violent films and TV even on our TV shows on basic cable that don't really have any like age gate or anything are extremely violent to most other countries out there we're like veiling what no let's ban that because violence really exists in a real sense overseas in other countries where they don't want to perpetuate that but it's like video games is like the smallest threat if anything it's weird the straw poll links apparently aren't working properly in YouTube but sorry about that so so made a bitly link thank yourself for that he's on it but yeah so since it has been so clearly decided now that video games don't cause violence we should obviously binge on video game violence and so that's what we're gonna argue about is what type hmm a video game violence should be binge on now that we know it doesn't affect this cuz there's so many options so many options in the video game well we got your fantasy based violence you know orcs versus humans and elves and they you know warlocks about Avada Kedavra and all that stuff now you got your horror based balance you know your your Resident Evil your Silent Hill you know normally the monster created by some thing and it's scary in the monsters gonna come violently decapitate you or whatever your war based your shooter based violence feel you know your battlefield color your player nones battlegrounds you fall into this category here of course yeah beat'em up violence is very generic but this is two-player like yeah it's scrolling type like in your street fighters fire um that kind of thing also maybe like your your smash brothers this is very what I saw you tweeting yesterday before oh yeah actually wife is laughs and I were up all night just like watching that intensely watching smash brothers tournaments is so entertaining and then of course the violent entertainment text-based games yeah those are obviously leaving it up to the imagination typically do community what would I'm gonna say the most violently out of all these oddly enough is violent text based games tax based game I thought that violent text-based games are the most gnarly because it's just text so your brain your imagination fills in the blanks of how that text should look and play on paper which by far and away I feel like your imagination as a just the normal effed up human beings that we are are generally worse than the reality of of any of these video again any anything that these video games can portray realistically your brain has far more horrendous images to conjure up so I think the violent text baked test text based games are pretty gnarly I'm gonna go with that one I would probably like like a fundamental level agree with you there and I probably letting on with the same choice but since I have to do something different I'd say I'm gonna say war shooter based violence and this is primarily based on me trying to win and the idea that the most popular games right now is like you're playing guns battlegrounds and also just you know your battlefields is okay consummate that pop collar is dominating popular and you know FPS games that kind of thing I mean like fantasy based violence isn't even violent it's like I gave you an evil potion higher your walk slower where was it violence where where was it that I saw there was some it was a website or something like that lightning I was talking about the number of deaths in movies and like Lord of the Rings was like like yeah just like everyone else is a here here here and there's like Lord of the Rings like just so cuz like you consider eight these are masters battles and cyanuric some people's just much yeah dying can you walk out of the film that you walk out of the movie just lovely so yeah because it's fantasy you see what is real that's a pass in the violent card yeah I guess anyway Mormon shooter like real-life people you know faceless names you talk about war and actual events like a lot of these video games are based on actual wars that happen battlefield one so yeah it's a bit more raw and they can't make the deaths quite as gratuitous because true its historic it's it's based on history mm-hmm right okay bill yep okay let's see people thought the results here Oh weren't you to go looks like I win well Fran it fall like answer text base I'll be pretty good there though you get you got third they're not the fantasy they're true almost twenty percent of the votes thank you probably guys who voted yep if you're watching this is the future you can flow go and vote again no it'll meadow won't you no one will ever go and view the straw poll again no definitely not I don't want that side what you mean anything don't let that stop you okay ah all right so hey that's all for the prepared counts after my half let's quickly run through sweet donations yes where do you mind stopping yours begin that's a good question I remember you asking this one ha ha ha right ha ha and be sit with M b67 yes after I did Matt no Cal's have oh wait what where mine where a mine after your cat did he sell the soul just

hold out for now you're 970 is functional price drop next-gen GPUs might come at the exact same time stock coming back in like it's really just a matter of like if you really need something right now you should sign up for website auto auto notifications like from new egg and Amazon and wherever else might have that kind of function because that's really gonna be your best bet is getting some inventory right when it drops on a retail site for MSRP for now hopefully and another month or two things will ease up a little bit but yeah it's hard for us to predict too far out but but good luck

dollars I will be both equally I'm going to eat the twenty-five dollars to see if the power link will work okay worried about blocking the - 4 pin fan adapters on the back though if it's the wraparound one and you've got the fan adapters that stick out it probably will just knowing where the power link goes but those fan adapters aren't really necessary they allow you to connect up extra fans that operate at the same fan speed it's like the fans on the GPU I talked about the fan pins on the fan heaven card yeah the card itself has a couple fan headers okay it's a specific 1/6 feature gotcha yeah I know but you don't need to use those fan headers so yeah give it a shot save works I hope it works for you bazinga X $10 you remind me of Howard and Raj Big Bang Theory Big Bang Theory
