what's up guys you know I'm kind concerned because I don't know if we're actually y know I'd do something stupid oh well we're alive I got the lie I got the pop-out chat I'm not seeing anybody yet oh yeah YouTube YouTube loves us YouTube screwed us man yeah for sure it's still blank like this is so weird usually it's flooded with people by now what's going on now I Drive the wrong chat okay oh no we're good hey man just got a push notification I'm not bang live yes - hi what's up Jake Jack not Jason might still whacked out I don't know what's it says we're offline on the stream now option oh we're live bro yes they are we live on the events thing yeah we created an event again yeah but that's the stream now doesn't work with Google Hangouts okay we have a hundred and forty-three likes through 184 watching you so I guess YouTube isn't 196 there we go YouTube did something yeah very interesting um anyway as the title of this video suggests for our second after-hours live stream on the Sunday night YouTube is bending us over and we have proof of that actually right now will you want to tell us what you just experienced yeah actually I'll show it to them but all my passwords it's pretty good pull this up here what's up Greg love your content yo ace ghost is KY whatever that means Rob it going on I'm gonna pull it up and just pause the livestream so that I can see what's going on oh yeah Oh see it doesn't it doesn't show it when it switches for me looking on the light on the hangouts but it switches on the live feed which is at least it does that yeah give me one second pull the thing up so you can show them our monetization status the swears yeah Will's gonna pull up turbo mode right now you're gonna see uh you see us getting royally screwed over here live so hash to have YouTube is killing itself that's what I'm talking about I like that it's just Teta I like that so basically what you're about to see is the epitome of YouTube in its current state I know a lot of people a lot of the bigger channels not necessarily tech channels were saying that this happened in the past and now the other channels that aren't as consumer unfriendly are being hit hard by it now that I don't see why that even has to be the case I mean if you're if you want an algorithm to kind of teach itself how about letting it teach itself on the content that actually needs to be you know censored to some extent or you know provided with limited ads but I can tell you I don't think I've ever done anything on this channel that would provide really really questionable content for advertisers so it's just really strange that we're all being hit by this so hard now so it was harder than others ah ground box getting it really hard poor Steve I feel sorry for that guy can see what you really are Liz benchmarking stuff I know how tough that is he's doing a lot of work is that it's been over right there yep so check this out guys so this is the live stream we're on right now all right so we literally just created this live stream and here's what it says limited or no ads due to content identified it's not suitable for MIT advertisers your videos or your video remains fully playable and is eligible to earn subscription revenue from YouTube Brett however the live streams you know obviously don't make a lot of revenue on the YouTube side but it's it's this is more of a principle and so it's kind of hilarious that you know this is instantly this is instantly be monetized as a live stream now you know it could be because I put YouTube is killing itself right that's probably it but at the same time you know we have tons of other videos that we upload all the time that don't have any absolutely anything right like you know could be a PC build or something like that and we've gone through the transcripts and gone through everything looking for something you know like a keyword or something you know maybe we thought okay you know Google's where is YouTube's you know closed captioning system might have you know done something or you know or misinterpreted something we said and know like we look we look through it right so says why did this happen advertisers avoid placing ads on videos that don't align with their brand for example they may choose not to advertise on content that's sexually suggestive including bad language or it's considered controversial so I guess you have a lot of have an opinion anymore on the Internet that's as far as YouTube is concerned if you think ah right I mean automated system got this wrong and your video is suitable for all advertisers you can request a manual review that's great you can request a manual review it takes about two days yeah usually most of the time and the issue is not so much for us but for smaller creators I think they have a limit right Greg gets it what is it tonight ten thousand it's at ten thousand subscribers no no I think it's the video has to get 10,000 views before they'll review it I've seen I've seen YouTube team YouTube on Twitter commenting the it regardless of your view count you can file for for manual review so I don't know if it's like a subscription cutoff or if it's a new cutoff or if they're just kind of switching out both I have no clue I mean neither of them really pertain to our channel thankfully but I can imagine if this had happened a year and a half ago I don't think we would be here at this point because there's no way I can have made a you know I you know in any money I would have been pretty discouraged me the reason why I do this because I love it but have to make a living off of it I'm literally doing this full-time yeah for the people who are who are doing this on a smaller scale which you know everyone's gonna start from from zero Suggs they're hammered now I know people are saying like oh it's the words YouTube and killing or like killing itself but might think it's like suicide or something but here's the thing like the algorithm is pretty much as dumb as a box of rocks because if it really took the time to analyze all of our content and compiled some sort of like mini database our videos in particular they would know that none of our keywords have ever suggested anything like that and they would know that you know what we're talking about here in the context of the title in its entirety is in regards to YouTube so it doesn't matter if it says killing itself that's not the point the idea is not that hey it says killing itself so that's bad that should not be the cutoff it should have to read the whole title basically and say okay YouTube is the subject killing itself is the action but obviously YouTube is not an animate object so it's okay the algorithm is not smart period well and you know they quote machine learning deep Q&A you know artificial intelligence and and the whole point of those technologies is to be able to you know analyze things on a cognitive level right it's it's not a yes or no it's supposed to be you know a complex answer based on a lot of data so you know when you're when they call it a self learning algorithm right like Logan Morgan whatever your name is pointed out you know you get into these issues of well is it really learning because we haven't really seen any increase and you know we've actually seen an increase in videos getting demonetised in the last probably sixty days right I think you know every week out of the four to five videos I think about you know three or four of them hit demonetised and we have to request a manual review and what that does is you know we we're not getting any ad revenue on those during those two days which is usually you know at least for a subscriber base right like when all of you are watching it that's when the majority of the views come in now if one of those videos happens to rank for a keyword then you know we'll get that revenue later on you know once they review it but YouTube doesn't come back and say oh well sorry you were right we shouldn't have be monetized you so we're gonna you know give you that money back and so it's not even it's not even really necessarily targeting us so much as it is smaller creators right who you know maybe like I can't for numbers out for you to Terms of Service but you know people who barely make enough to get by to pay their expenses whatever using the YouTube channel all of the sudden now you know the revenues cut in half or the revenues cut in the third you know so yeah there's a lot of issues like this that you know they just haven't done David Sullivan Solomon masca says he says I'm a gaming YouTube channel and I was fully demonetized until I hit 10k views over the history of the channel fully so maybe maybe they're talking like channel views I don't know yeah there used to so YouTube actually back in the good old days of YouTube right the around 2009/2010 they opened up the partner program and so to apply for the partner program I believe you had to have 10,000 subscribers or something along those lines or maybe it's 10,000 views and you could apply it was an application process right so everybody now can add a an adsense account to their to their YouTube channel and you know make money off of videos that reach certain thresholds right whether it's 10,000 channel views or or whatever but it used to be a lot smaller so they opened it up they open the floodgates and then now they're trying to step back because we'll be at apocalypse the apocalypse 2.0 right with YouTube kids you know and all that sort of stuff I wonder like think about so the algorithm if we assume it's just like completely work based right it's just doing a word search it's probably using some sort of closed captioning probably using built-in closed captioning to set off flags I wouldn't blame them for doing so but still the closed captioning system isn't perfect and on top of that it's using keywords and tags more than likely so like the title of this video for instance set this one off right away literally like right away there was no delay sometimes our videos get to monetize after like a couple hours which pisses me off because I'm not checking by then like I'm checking right away or I'm checking the next day after I've uploaded it unlisted then I'll go back and see if it's unless or demonetized even then after about a day I'll publish it and then somehow some couple hours later it'll be monetized then what I really want to know though is okay so let's say we submit for manual review is anybody because if those are those are people doing that people are actually watching the videos and then you know and either giving them full monetization set us again or rebuking it are those people going back to the AI whatever that may be and saying hey you did this incorrectly like is there some sort of manual input to the to the artificial intelligence to tell it hey you screwed up you need to know that you messed up so you don't do this again this doesn't seem like that's happening is it just keeps happening over and over to some people what's happening in every single video you know yeah and I you know one thing that happened to us and I mean if you look at our channel right on social blade or anything like that you'll see this and about I think was August we went from you know uploading a video and the average it could be enough you know it could be a video of you know Greg doing nothing but standing at the camera or something and it get you know 80,000 views or something like that and and we can easily predict that okay this video will probably get a hundred thousand views or so and you know five thousand comments or something like that now if you go and look at the videos on the channel after August the view counts dropped into a third and what we found out is people tweeting at us and all that sort of thing YouTube's not even putting the videos in the subscription box anymore and a lot of people have predicted that the reason for that is because if you don't watch us you know if you don't watch a science studio video in a week or say Greg goes on vacation for a week and doesn't upload one then you know we have this problem of well YouTube says okay well if you haven't watched a video in a week from this channel and you're on the website every day then you're probably not interested right so if for example if we uploaded one video a week but then you saw the thumbnail on the you know the caption of that or the title of the video and you're like I don't wanna watch this one then next week are you gonna get that in your subscription box right and there's no transparency there's no there's no rules to follow and you know I get the you know on the YouTube kids side on the YouTube kids side they said okay well we're not going to tell you what the guidelines are and in that makes sense right because if you went to people who are manipulating the YouTube kids algorithms which are pretty similar I think to the YouTube the normal YouTube's algorithms to get these videos ranked for kids watching on an iPad for example right like they're gonna sit there and watch the ad and they'll sit there and look at their iPad for two hours right and they're just letting you know YouTube's algorithm tell it you know show the kid whatever it wants because it's going to use the related videos but there's there's sort of there's no whitelist there's nothing right look if you even look at Casey and I staefel DeFranco all of these people to this day are still dealing with videos getting be monetized right now they've diversified their income to the point where I don't think it really matters for them at least not as much as smaller you know smaller creators but you know when you get into the situation of you know you're like I think I forgot who used as an example but I'll watch the video the other day oh it's still on your face sorry I turn the yeah I realize that but you get to the you get to the idea that you know YouTube kids or not YouTube kids but you know this whole thing about you know if they're not gonna show them the subscription box like what what do we have to do right like what are the one of the requirements what are the rules or you know if they don't want to give you an exact guideline because YouTube's kids for example they don't want people manipulating it showing stuff to children but there's no whitelist kc9 staff Allah Franco they're not on a whitelist right they've never uploaded a video that has like legitimately been you know taken down right at least not in the last couple of years so you know where is that right I think he's a nice that put out a tweet or a video or I think was a tweet and YouTube responded and he basically he said you know why don't you put a whitelist type of thing right or you know if the channel has over a hundred thousand subscribers manually review it before you remove it and YouTube's response was like yeah sorry our algorithms learning but no it's too many you know too much too many human resources involved so yeah I mean they be monetize it and then they don't pay you back for that revenue and so I mean that's you know gonna hurt you know I think the number one job for Millennials or whatever everybody wants to be a youtuber social-media influencer or something like that and I kind of see the future being that you know I think we're gonna see another platform pop up that's gonna you know try to take away you know at least the influence your side not so much maybe the mass video uploads but you know the people who are on vine when vine shut down right a lot of them shifted over YouTube a lot of them shifted over to other platforms and I think you'll see another platform pop up that does monetization really well and that might be Facebook right Facebook has a really good video algorithm right now but they don't really have any monetization involved and I think that as soon as YouTube or Facebook flips that switch and says okay well if you have this many channel or this many you know likes on Facebook and you know they set up some sort of criteria to say okay here's what you need right in order to earn money on the platform I think you'll see Facebook blow up as a you know as a monetization monitor from the monetization standpoint right yeah I feel I feel like I'm just picturing myself a year and a half two years ago in this situation like this is this is one of those no no this is one of those like really really discouraging things that I think it's gonna really wash out a lot of the channels a lot of the smaller channels and it probably would have watched us out to at the same time he look we can we could probably get away as I say this but I'm not certain but we could probably do monetize every single video and maybe squeak by with just ad revenue from companies that pay for spots for like sponsored spots it's iffy I don't know if we could do it if we'd be relying a lot more on those companies which I don't think is a good thing but we could you know there's enough there's a possibility there if everything else fails we might still have that the difference though is that the smaller channels that don't have I mean maybe they're getting stuff for free from companies and good for them for that but they're not getting paid you know and like look you know a case or a motherboard that's not cash so even if you wanted to sell everything you were getting for free from these companies there's no way you'd be able to to keep this up so it's that's where it's really hammering people is those that had I would say around 10,000 subs or so that are like just now getting rolling like you hit that 10k Mork and you're like boom I got five digits let's keep going that's where you that's where you explode we went from 10k to 100k in like four months or something like that was like really fast we grew the most during that time and YouTube favors of smaller channels in that sensor used to but there's no way that there's no way that I could have done this a year or two years ago if this had happened I mean it unless they found a way to Ramana ties these videos within six or eight hours you could probably get away with uploading videos away in advance but then again if you're a small channel you're a one-person team so getting that ahead in the first place is already a feat in itself and if you're a full-time student or maybe have a job on the side because YouTube at 10,000 subs isn't gonna pay for crap then you know you've you've got to really find a way to leverage your time so I don't my people keep suggesting flute playing oboe flute playing I everyone go to flip plain I mean eventually and I think floatplane is going to be one of those things that is supplemental to YouTube right or whatever platform you end up on but so I pulled this up right this is socialblade this is a platform that allows you to I guess view in-depth statistics this is public I'm not logged into an account I'm not authenticated I'm not showing you anything that's not public but you can go to socialblade.com totally not a sponsored this is probably the largest analytics platform I guess third-party analytics platform for YouTube right and their data they estimate a lot of things right so the the earnings they all is tomato all of this right the subscribers these are accurate right so they monitor channels and I'm sure some of you guys are familiar with this but if you're not I definitely you should definitely check it out you can enter any youtubers name up here they also support other platforms twitch Instagram and Twitter but if you scroll down and look right you can go through here and just look at the monthly views right and these are pretty accurate I don't I don't really know where they get their data from I'm assuming YouTube's API but anyway you can you can see that you can see basically right here right this is August first right and I can't tell you what these numbers are because I haven't looked at them and in our actual YouTube analytics but if you look at it afterwards this is a huge drop right this is what we're talking about and this this one drop for us right I don't think these drops are necessarily accurate because I don't really remember any of any of this happening necessarily but I know that you know this right here is definitely close to accurate I don't know the numbers but I know the trend right we're in our view counts cut cut and we don't know why we don't know what we did or what we didn't do or the only thing that we do know is that you know people tweeted us Facebook message with us or whatever telling us hey I'm not getting your videos in your sub box right even friends and luckily for us you know they're like oh yeah right stop doing that I haven't seen his videos on YouTube lately and and you know this is the sort of thing right so yeah I mean if you haven't looked at this website I definitely think you should check it out you can even look at if you've seen some of these YouTube videos where people are you know talking about arms 500,000 subscribers or a million subscribers and they're watching like a live subscriber count' it's usually this website because it keeps it accurate so yeah I mean I think these guys should check this out just look at your favorite youtubers and you know just kind of look around yeah Tony thanks for the Tony you don't have to donate to get our intensity he just text me but Tony makes a good point so he is sorry I'm like and that's like some really weird people in the chat trying to monitor again so tony was saying you know like even this like his channel is not super big yet but even he's getting hit by it and he uploads maybe one a week you know around that he's working full-time elsewhere so you know that's what I was saying like it's gonna really hit the people hard who aren't doing it full-time already right and the thing is and this kind of as a separate topic but I agree with him the diversity of channels on YouTube like no doubt the tech tubers space is super saturated like at this point I would you would have to really find a niche if you wanted to be a tech tuber right now because so many people are doing either the same thing or something pretty darn close to it and that's why I've kind of if you've noticed on the channel kind of digress from not just reviewing tech and building pcs but also explaining what things work how they were talking about some really weird subjects because that there's not a lot of that right now there might be because I just said this but right now there's not and that's kind of where our Nicias at this point but if you just want to be a regular oral PC builder or tech reviewer the best of luck I mean if it's tough but here's here's the good thing and this is why I'm still okay with how it is people are oh it's sooo sad it's so saturated now you know the competition is is so high that's the point I'm glad that there is competition I see people all the time kind of taking little ideas from each other like I take a lot of like video ideas like I really like looking at a Dimitri Hardware Canucks videos I get a lot of like my my tips him from just his videos his to toriel's but that's the point so if you actually take the time to watch your competition even though I wouldn't call any of the guys up there my competitors we just we love doing the same thing then you can really kind of feed off of each other and improve your videos in the long run and how you present products and how you present reviews so I'm okay with how it is right now I've never really complained about how dense the tech tuber space is on YouTube but it almost seems like YouTube is doing this on purpose to limit the number of people in each space and I don't know why tech tubers are are really getting hit hard by this as well I mean we review tech like what's subjective I mean there's their subjectivity but like what is what is I guess I want to say like controversial about tech reviews other than the fact that you might see an LG ad in front of a Samsung product review who cares Samsung knows that they're paying for the actual video or that they're they're sending the product for a review they're not paying for the ad in front of the video that you're about to see that's a totally separate thing and they go to YouTube for that they want to add in our videos they go to us so there's two different outlets there the fact that they have that option is great but the idea that they're censoring videos based on these weird keywords and discouraging smaller channels is a that I mean that's I could talk about it for days but I just think that it's pure trash and I can say that we are really lucky to be on the other side of this right now because while we're getting hit - I know we're not getting hit nearly as hard as some of the other guys out there they're getting hammered by it every now and then we get a video to monetize this live stream was to monetize right way but you know some of them are getting hit just every single video it's so bad yeah and I mean you know the Greg's right right I mean we're at the point now where you know even if YouTube decided to completely ban our Adsense account right that we have enough company sponsors relationships that we've built up that we we'd be okay but you know the the small youtuber who's making just enough to pay the rent eat food whatever and they're trying to you know make this there's you know the next big thing for them to be able to actually build a brand behind it you know if they lose you their Adsense revenue they're screwed basically right like they don't have a backup I saw one of you guys talk about affiliate revenue for tech tubers that's huge affiliate revenue especially through Amazon Newegg those sort of websites when you guys use our Amazon links or anything that's in the in the description is usually an affiliate link we get a kickback from it doesn't cost you anything and so a lot of people do that but then when you look at YouTube verticals that don't necessarily you know get I guess you know tech tuber it's easy to do that because if you talk about processor then you can put an affiliate link to buy that right and so the idea there is that a lot of the people who are searching for that video are gonna end up buying that processor and if you help them do it then you can get a small kickback but then when you look at youtubers like lifestyle vloggers and those sort of people that are you know maybe around the 200,000 sub mark or so they're they're at the point where you know they may not have those relationships built up with companies or they don't have a niche or something that they're they're targeting so yeah I mean it's crazy my Amazon link is set to gamers Nexus Gigi bro I'll be sure to let Steve know about that one yeah somebody said I want to read this because this is something else is that pretty interesting so I hate window says nobody on YouTube should get money from YouTube itself everybody can upload videos up to 4k for free normally uploader should pay for this service so there is an exchange going on here that you have to consider alright some channels very small channels usually will not be able to monetize so they're uploading content and taking advantage of YouTube servers or storage and YouTube is still probably planting ads in there the people that don't have a huge fan base or that don't have the traffic are probably just taking advantage of YouTube's system but I wouldn't even call it I mean you're just uploading content YouTube allows you to do it so they're not really taking advantage of it because they're able to do it right YouTube is banking on people getting big and when channels get big YouTube makes so there is an exchange it should not be a free service for me to upload videos and not have the option to monetize my content or at least to get a small kickback from the videos that I upload when they decide to plant ads in front of my videos it's a it's an agreement you literally check when you say monetize my video you agree for YouTube to put ads in front of your videos and for you to get a small kickback from those ads like you're making just like shillings on the dollar I mean these are these are tiny tiny percentages the idea is YouTube makes a lot of money you make some money the difference is YouTube's making more of it because their infrastructure is much greater than any tech tuber out there they're making you know they they have all these servers all this infrastructure to to maintain and long run that's a lot of a lot of money to do to use and in the absence I'd write like if you if you're not eligible so YouTube's three but it's free it's it's almost freemium right there there are no paid services on YouTube other than the p-channel recently got rid of and YouTube red and I guess YouTube TV now but the idea there I mean there's no such thing as a free lunch right like economics 101 YouTube makes more money like I think the the revenue split would that's it I since I want to say it's 55 percent that's what Facebook's is I'm not exactly sure so don't quote me on that but if you're not eligible to get ads on YouTube right if you have a channel with under ten thousand views or ten thousand subscribers or whatever the qualifications are YouTube is still putting ads in front of your video and they're just making the revenue right like you're not getting anything so it's more it's more like you're opting in to collect portion of the money as an incentive to continue producing content because you're you know whatever the video is I think most of the most of the revenue for YouTube actually comes from people who aren't huge right not the low-mid Paul's or you know any of them right most of the content comes from smaller creators and they make a ton of revenue off of that and they don't split it with anybody they just monetize your video because they want to you and their YouTube and that's part of the service yeah that's like yeah I didn't think about that yeah there are I mean then placing ads in front of your videos it's kind of like a default thing they're not expecting to make a lot of money from you if you're really small you're probably not gonna have a lot of these unless your video goes viral for it you said I thought it was 60% to YouTube and 40% of the creator' it might be I'm not 100% sure on the exact split I know they take more though I know they take more yeah it's over 50% for them the gamer says my ad rates are about $2 for every 1000 views after YouTube gets their cut so that dunkey the gamer you're talking about your CPM being $2 I actually don't think you're supposed to talk about that decade Quinn to Taryn thanks for the for the 5 Canadian he says well the Greg is it a bad time to try and start a channel or should I wait and see how it all plays out well if it plays out bad I mean then you didn't really lose anything but if it happens to play out good and let's say this ad pocalypse thing go this way eventually the algorithms start favoring small channels again some of them are being favored right now but very few are I mean we're not being favored by the algorithm right xx as YouTube doesn't place ads on videos with monetization disabled at all there they aren't advertising on those tiny creators so they're not advert if if we were to upload a video and market is not monetized ads won't show up but if you are a just a normal YouTube creator you know and and I might be wrong you might be right but I think I'm gonna stick with my idea that they do but I'm pretty sure off the researcher I don't want to say you're wrong tick tock Texas will that doesn't make a whole lot of sense what doesn't make a whole lot of sense Josh we weren't saying our channel is small it's not over we weren't saying our we were talking about channels that have you know relatively small around 10k subs or less yeah and we compare ourselves to like big we're talking about big channels right like we don't well we don't make enough money by any means to be able to hire a staff of 30 and a big fancy office and hoverboards for everybody in free candy but you know like that's that's that's kind of what our comparison is right there's plenty of youtubers you make millions of dollars plenty you make $10 a month there's plenty you don't make any and then there's everybody in between Bob says this one have to watch the whole pre-bid ad for sign sudha to get moolah so the answer to that is no we'll do you know if it matters if they click skip five seconds in verses they watch the entire ad is that is the revenue different yeah so I we can't sit here until you do watch our ads don't watch our ads but objectively speaking right I think that the way it works and whatever the kid's name might correct me again but I think that when you watch an ad if it's a skippable ad and like if I so I do a lot of media buys right like my day job sort of thing I do a lot of media marketing for healthcare organizations so when we buy YouTube ads for example if somebody skips the ad we don't have to pay we pay for an impression but we don't pay for the actual click through on the ad spot so if you skip the ad it's not actually paying YouTube a whole lot of money if you watch the whole lab then I believe that obviously watch the ad and if you click the ad then it's it's even more right so there's there's a click-through rate a cost per cost per thousand impressions a cost per thousand views all that sort of stuff gets calculated into it so X Ted CX the ones who was saying that you were so he says no try it make a fresh channel you don't get ads if someone right under him says they don't they may not be like ads overlaying in your video or on you know at the beginning of your video but you'll have ads underneath maybe your ads have ads on the side or whatever he's saying that they still implement ads to some extent but they might not be the hardcore like 10 second ads or 30-second ads Jesus in front of videos that aren't gonna get a lot of traffic yeah yeah it's um except I wouldn't blame YouTube for doing it it wouldn't make sense for them not to you right yeah there's different types right there's different types of ads there's the banner ads you see on YouTube videos there's the pre-rolls there's the post rolls there's even mid rolls now the non skippable pre-rolls which most people hate because you can't skip them obviously those are YouTube is phasing out from what we've we've gotten from our partner manager at YouTube they're phasing out the 30-second ads the 30-second pre-roll on Schiphol because the abandonment rate goes way up right if you're used to watching a video and just skipping at five seconds in you have to watch you know ten more seconds of an ad or twenty five more seconds of an ad on a 30-second video you're just gonna click off the video most the time or you're gonna refresh the page trying to get you know not an ass and so they're they're phasing out I believe it's Q on a 20-18 they're phasing out the 30-second ads yeah someone else is saying so he's still still denies that you get ads at all period someone else is saying you still get banners and whatnot smaller channels will still get ad banners like there's a good ways to monetize by the way so you can disable like pre-roll if you want to call them that think pre-roll ads or pre video ads but you can enable banners you can unable to ads that show up underneath the video box things like that so you know I want to also look it up and kind of see maybe we can talk to a YouTube yeah we can research it I mean you know it's all out there you can skip them get that block it's like yeah that's what we talked this last night about 6065 percent of you or so according to our analytics are using some sort of ad blocker which means that we make zero dollars and it also means that YouTube makes zero dollars by the way yeah screw YouTube yeah you go that's a way to get a thing out on the stream oh yeah see now Devon do you have YouTube red because our vid this live streams be monetized except for YouTube red subscribers YouTube Reds will get them but others won't know YouTube red shouldn't get any ads right no youtuber so when they did monetized this live stream they left monetization on for YouTube red oh wait so okay then I thought that that meant we got a portion of the YouTube red funds I didn't think we actually I don't think they saw ads at all yeah I know the YouTube red we'll see actually I don't know it's good question I'm pretty sure youtuber I doesn't get ads okay sorry YouTube YouTube red monetize because they don't watch ads right so they're saying that they get that we get a percentage of their basically monthly payment per view it's probably like right nothing but I mean I'm we're getting something from that so I'm pretty sure that we're not getting if you're seeing ads you're probably seeing them because some of those advertisers are still deemed worthy that or weird is not getting period and guess what there's no like fine print that says exactly what we're getting when we're partially or fully demonetised in fact it's not even explicit as to the extent of which were demonetized are we partially are we like mostly to monetize you're like are you completely cutting off ads or our Adsense you know like what's what's going on there what's that they're just being super vague about it and they have like this automated machine on Twitter that keeps responding the same way every time just file for review we'll fix it for you adventures in fabrication says I never get ads unread I guess he's saying he's on YouTube bread I actually think that YouTube bread like between our CPM revenues on normal straight Adsense and YouTube red there isn't a whole lot of difference so I mean if you're wanting to support youtubers but you know obviously don't wanna watch ads YouTube ready I think it's what $10 a month yeah someone says you get 25 per 25 cents per view with YouTube right I can pretty much tell you that's not that is not correct that is a vas overestimation my friend no ads on red it's true Josh matter what you think a floatplane everybody keeps talking about floatplane so I think that slow plane is definitely gonna be I think a huge platform right I think that line is is in a position where he he can do it and I think they'll do it really well and I think I'll execute on it really well he has a great team of people that I think can actually get it done I mean we've met a couple of them right but I think that you know I think if anybody can do it I think he can and but I think time will tell I think they're still in early stages of development I know bit wait got involved with it when YouTube cut everything off November first for his paint channel and you know we'll see what happens but I definitely think it's going to be something interesting to you know see what happens with and definitely jump on at some point Bob Flanders donated $2 says let's see if my wife asked about this $2 somebody watches 30 to 50 YouTube videos a day red is a steal yeah I got a lot of respect for those people I mean you're basically paying like a it's like Netflix subscription a lot of people don't even have cable they just use Netflix or Hulu and then they kind of watch that in with YouTube yeah I haven't came in four years yeah well they get it you don't have cable that's right yeah yeah we'll do you deal with SEO at all dealing with that sense I did a long time ago yes but there's there's an organic strategy obviously in a paid strategy and at this day and age there's always a hybrid no way I'm paying in $2.99 a month worldwide what are you yeah Jedi Katie where do you live that you don't get rid of curious it includes a Google Music what but are you done limited streaming on Google music oh yeah you might I know that yeah yes they get six accounts for 15 bucks so you get six six YouTube accounts that you can all have a dream with red pretty cool YouTube red has been massive for me as a small creator says X busy X whatever I'm just gonna call you X Dead YouTube Brad's been a massive massive for me as a small creator you get a portion of their watch time from the $10 and my fan base is much higher than my 500 views get from ads hmm that's interesting unlimited music on Google Play thanks John that's really cool did no no that's not available in the UK subscriptions market so United States Australia Mexico New Zealand and South Korea those are the five oh wow so it is or it's pretty small in yeah that's I'd bet you there's just a bunch of like government loopholes to get through you know you're basically introducing yourself as a media company you says red is irrelevant I think here in Germany there is no YouTube red yeah it's like about five countries or so Canada and up there in Canada so you say oh right Kumiko Canada I'm just gonna say Canadia from now on to piss off all the Canadian okay no need a not a Canadian appreciate it scary Terry we appreciate you we really had no clue what we're gonna talk about and then we've noticed that video got the monetized really all right that is our question that yeah so what do you guys this is this is sort of a curiosity standpoint I mean I know what our analytics say but if you guys are in chat and there's quite a few of you what do you how old are you what do you do for a living if you're a student just put student I don't need to know all your detail but you know what do you do for a living if you're working you know are you a student do you have a youtube channel just kind of bombard the chat I'll try to look as many as I can other minium yeah so okay so I want to know why everyone's kind of putting in their credentials so I know the English say aluminium right I mean mininum I guess there's like because we don't have an eye at the end right it's not in I um it's in um so is it ni um in England or is it just like in um and you're just like stressing the in you connection they're like yeah the same the only difference I've seen is an Apple commercials right if you're gonna sell a macbook get to talk about you how do you minions in a or a leaky body whatever thanks for watching that accident I will admit out of a minion sounds cooler than available yeah sounds cheapest crap and how the mininum sounds dope so I get it a lot of students in here yeah students 18 work the corner says crow that's funny student 28 software engineer student student engineer I think like over half of these uh viewers or students y'all better watch out tomorrow's a school day its aluminium everywhere y'all are spelling with an I um I others trolling me worried for a hippie with almost two thousand seven like a boss dirt is young by comparison I'm a director and tech guy at a company in DC trucker bomb says 32 year old truck driver well what do you think about the Tesla semi trucks I'm curious about that I think they're kind of funny to view I'm just picturing like electric truck like because 18 wheelers and semi trucks in general just huge gas hogs right I just pump not a bunch of co2 and crap that picturing an all-electric semi all lunch 18-wheelers just that's when you know you're in the future it's so trippy molybdenum molybdenum right oh look at that looks like a freak you know what that looks like yeah it's like the monorail at Orlando in Disneyworld yeah apparently the aerodynamic abilities on it are insane like this I don't if you can see the mouse but this panel right here apparently comes like in and out to like basically be the size of the truck geez so it lowers the drag like crazy that's trippy what is going on the background what is that whining are you serious yeah sounded like it sounds like knickers somebody mechanism steer to 60 in five seconds for a giant semi shouldn't be illegal y'all see that friggin Tesla Roadster jeez man that thing is insane just watching it take off it looks fake it looks CGI'd that's what it looks like oh yeah 250 mile an hour top speed I didn't know that part I gotta sneeze mile an hour plus oh there's a plus there yeah they've had 250 in a prototype but they won't say what the actual top speed is dude you know how hot those motors are gotta be it like 250 miles an hour I mean not just the motors the tires - jeez they're gonna be burning up on the road yeah that car sweet yeah it's it's insane I wish it I wish it didn't have such a really high back end though like the back end of it kind of it's like every other Tesla like the P 100 is the same thing like the back end just kind of like slopes off its that there's no like flat you know trunk and I wish it if it had a flat trunk it would look more sporty in my opinion that's the only thing I would really change without the thought the Roadster but but it's a fast car no doubt Steven Hager and box is fun to listen to out of mininum Z and H this position driver is so dumb says trucker bomb he drives trucks for a living he says it's dumb I actually was kind of curious about that I mean that just seems like a weird way I feel like they said that you know you're gonna be able to see the left and a right just as much but I almost wonder if you know if you set in the middle of like a pickup truck right you can't see anything outside on the left or the right so I'm kind of wondering how they're gonna mitigate that what's up Chris appreciate that donation brah mkbhd ordered a semi that's funny or we no no I think he's talking about the Roadster yeah I did that I think Logan Paul or somebody like ordered a freaking semi alaria odds of six twenty eighteen of the old video they should the monster vision concept my I owned a Mazda 6 back in high school I was at 2005 oh yeah bright red with a spoiler your boy was he was pulling that front-wheel drive action let me tell ya whipping that e-brake getting that severe understeer 1,700 is 3/8 at best everyone's talking about the RX 1,700 moorthi people are I'm a fan of techy s City love his trolling local hardware seller do is it's kind of like what we were doing with Craigslist videos you need to get back into those I know Tony wanted to do one with Reddit eventually slowly becoming Alex Jones or does that I say something that they may seem super like I mean you supposed to yell really loud into the camera and talk about the world coming to noon and talk about like guns right Walmart ordered 15 semi trucks yes appreciate that Chris automated electric semi tractors the future I mean I'm pretty sure we could just invent those right now if we wanted I still think anybody wants to thoughts on surface book two we'd have to do it one is putting a Corvette ls3 engine in his Miata do it nyada's are like the perfect frame for anything if the engine is so like the hood space is just so so Laura get the v8 sand those things but they got little for bangers and I'm stock she's pretty flying power to waiting me out of those equivalent to jeez almost 50 a city better sis can be why is that I guess Center tech Kiev city is better than you right at what oh right the yeah but he doesn't do the same thing I do I mean I called people one time but I had to delete the video cuz we had some we had some issues alright Scooby I'm gonna message uh a message Brian yeah yeah right hey Tom what's up Brian dissipated have you done carbon cleaning on your s5 good point I want to talk about the Z Y Z so so with FSI engines like feel stratified engines basically you have a lot of like carbon buildup on the air intake manifold and that can drastically reduce power it basically just clogs the air intake port and your engine doesn't get enough oh - and you need to have that proper air fuel mixture right to burn the fuel and to get that combustion going so the less air you have the more which is it is it rich or lean if it's rich I think it's rich and fuel so I think it's I think it's rich when it doesn't have enough air maybe it's the opposite basically your engine gets either rich or lean and I forget which one it is and you don't you lose power you can lose up to I think they documented like 15-20 percent if you go without carbon cleaning the S 5 so I think almost every FSI engine from Audi's like that including I believe the r8 I'm pretty sure the Rho uses FSI engine so that over time would still have carbon cleanup or carbon buildup issues I haven't cleaned mine I'm pretty sure out II did it because I looked at my Carfax and the its rich yeah I thought it was rich so the CARFAX has a basically they didn't say carbon buildup clean they just said that they clean the air intake manifold or something like that or air manifold whatever you know they comes are pretty vague on CARFAX but I'm pretty sure they did like 60 65 K miles and now I'm at like 72 so I should be good for another 10 K miles or so by then I might sell it so we'll see yeah it gets a case of carbon cleanup or carbon buildup I keep saying clean up carbon buildup happens yeah it happens in every car I mean anything that burns fuel but it's especially bad with FSI engines like it's it's a real issue with the s5 so someone says are you trying to become like Jay's two cents or more like Linus tech tips I would hope I don't become like either of them not to insult either then I want to be my own channel I don't want to be like either of them but I would say I draw I draw a lot of my inspiration from both a lot of my early inspiration came from - and now I'm starting to appreciate the the smaller but still big channels a really big fan of Kyle's work of course I like Paul Paul's just you know straight up stand-up guy like Paul a lot I like Jays just blunt kind of just rash approach to things and and that is something that not a lot of people like to be frank and i'm sure he'll admit that but i appreciate that that's the way he is so um i would say that i probably at this point draw a little more inspiration from jay than i do - but that's just more or less because i've already drawn a lot of inspiration from - and at this point he's so big like I can't even think will thinks on that scale but I can't think on that scale yet I can't think of that like 30 person warehouse level stuff you know I just I'm one guy in a 3-bedroom apartment just turned one of my bedrooms into a film room and you'll see in this next video coming up I use the green screen officially for the first time and I'm just getting kind of into the into the mix you must be connect Ian can aid Ian to be like Linus you do minute science on how Ram works specifically with a horizon CPU so you want to know why ran speed matters more or less horizon CPUs and it doesn't tell okay I'll take number that interesting but haha I saw you did there well what 29 inch old tried monitor would you recommend I owned a 29 inch LG Ultra why the ug 57 or the LG 57 um something like that the 58 sout now it's a 75 inch free single Tour wide monitor 29 inch it's like 200 bucks or so really cheap I would recommend that one if you're on a budget yeah someone said what do we think about Bitcoin I feel like we get this conversation never get this question yeah this guy said he's been holding for over a year I bought in 2013 so so you know you know it's a good way to know or do I keep making more money type what's it like eleven five now here yeah at this point I'm actually not sure what's gonna happen I think that I've always had this idea in this theory that as long as Bitcoin actually caught on or got a bunch of controversy around it which it did that you know there's only 21 million bitcoins right so when the supply runs out I think that's the critical mass plate I think that you know the the actual supply of being able to mine coins runs out in a couple years or a few years and I think when that happens you're gonna you're gonna hit a point where it's either gonna the scarcity factor is gonna go through minute it's gonna become you know the the digital currency that everything else is based on just like the US dollar sort of a standard in the world or it's gonna become a really big flop and everybody's gonna sell and get scared I'm curious well how do you how you feel that just lets somebody comment this and I've been saying this for a while how do you feel like about the the people that say that basically most if not I would say most not all cryptocurrency but most cryptocurrency is a sort of Ponzi scheme it's like a pump and dump thing right baby pretty much I mean the ones that really do it bad are the ones that have a bunch of coins already to themselves before they even release the thing to the public yeah you know you can still prepare beforehand right yeah cryptocurrency has been around for a long time I mean even before Bitcoin it was still a thing but Bitcoin kind of made it a you know a real thing and I think the political climate influenced it a little bit especially the United States but the US dollar this was in 2008 right so the market markets crashed everything happened and people are looking for alternatives to currency so obviously you guys know that bitcoin is not held by any government nobody actually knows who good point we know him of his is alias right but we don't know who he actually is there's been reports that some governments or whatever have figured out who he is but just haven't disclosed it but what's interesting is you know a lot of these coins now is Bitcoin happened right and the etherium happened and a lot of these other alt coins are starting to pop up and that can be a good thing but it can also be a really bad thing because you can get a lot of scammers or people who basically want to just download Bitcoin off of github do a control find and replace everything that has to do with Bitcoin basically just re skinning the same coin in the same technology and then marketing it differently and so then they hope that they can get a lot of interest in it they do what's called an ICO initial coin offering which is where you pay mule US dollars in exchange for currency that doesn't really exist yet so you're buying part of what they call the pre mine so before the developer actually releases the point of the public they mined some of those coins for themselves and their team and so that I'm you know Nico can yeah an IPO ICO can be you know small as $100 up to millions of millions of dollars and then they try to get it on exchanges and get it adopted by businesses and by huge organizations to use as an actual currency you're starting to see a lot of these niche coins come up which you know a lot of these niche coins could be worth something one day you know I'm mining and experimenting with tons of these what they're called alt coins and the idea behind that is that you know maybe one of them might become you know a coin for that industry specifically so you know entire countries people are building coins just for that country even though people outside the country can buy them they're betting on mass adoption in that country you know in in vice-versa someone said dodge coins a certain pet 99% of all of all coins are trash and will go to zero that's true you get they're all coins aren't dangerous I mean they are dangerous but they're not they're not all scams so that that's sort of the how do you do how do you decide between the two but I will say if you're getting in a cryptocurrency or you're curious about how it works alt coins are the place to start in your mining because if you can find a coin that doesn't have a very high difficulty meaning you need less computing power to actually find blocks and to actually get coins then you know you can play with it and understand how the software works and test it or even build your own coin just to play with it but in order for it to actually get some sort of real tangible value you have to get it onto an exchange right and so getting it onto an exchanges is a really big deal or at least getting it into one of the top hundred exchanges is a really big deal because once that happens those exchanges move millions of bitcoins a day and then these investors are willing to put a few bitcoins towards your project just to see and you know sort of like a venture capitalist or I guess more like an angel investor or they're willing to throw $100,000 at you just to see what happens so the scooby-doo's says a cryptocurrency doesn't create any value it's only values and what you give it okay but you can say the same thing about our currency system we used to be on a gold standard but we completely fabricate our own value like with respect to other currencies okay it's a bit more difficult to do that but our currency is literally what value we give it we say like milks four bucks a gallon we're just saying that four bucks is equivalent to a gallon of milk but two weeks from now we could say it's eight bucks well you make any sale no but you're giving a gallon of milk the value of eight dollars which dollars don't you know that's eight dollars doesn't do you any good it's what you can get for the eight dollars so all of that is completely like in our heads as to what we find is worth also if somebody else says corn dog corn dog says honestly you guys need to put your webcam side-by-side because the whole switching back and forth thing is giving me a headache okay I'm gonna be blunt get over it we switch like eight times probably entire live stream unless wills getting like super click like click e spammy over there and like switching eight times in a second I don't think it's that big a deal that we're switching every two minutes or so sorry that just bothered me cuz I didn't think it was that big a deal corn dog I just cooked it like a hundred times oh yeah there you go just spam them oh I'm watching it now oh this is beautiful see that's what happens what happens when you go play about something that shouldn't be complained about corndog all right I'm off my high horse now someone said ow I'm freaking out stop good oh yes all right all right we got a catch back up here that's Becca they won't say anything interesting problem is liquidity and also BTC it's our Bitcoin is technically controlled via Chinese miners I think what I will well I mean it's kind of true right there's a lot of ASIC Myers that basically control the Bitcoin mining industry but that's also because if you if you go on YouTube and look up like Chinese Bitcoin factories or whatever they call them ore mining farms there are these huge warehouses with barely any cooling a ton of ASIC Hardware really cheap or stolen power like you know it's really cheap to do for them compared to you know 12% average per kilowatt here or you know other developing countries where you're talking 30 cents a kilowatt-hour it's it's not crazy what do you guys think of BTC driving up GPU prices greg has an opinion on that yeah I'm more let's talk about like why it's happening not necessarily like what I think about it I mean it's whatever it's the market like I can't blame the market for being the market if it's a relatively free and open market someone else says I'm just kind of funny Tara Drive says and continue to mine with my gtx 1070 another 1062 get around twelve hundred dollars in four months of mining so i really wonder if you're from mining for four months non-stop 24/7 how much your power bill was for four months of mining and he's not doing on a major coin you wouldn't those carnie 1200 bucks that's the problem with Bitcoin is it's sort of on my nibble for most people like even if you took some of those ten ATT eyes over there and tried to mine it you wouldn't get anywhere because ASIC miners are literally chips built for mining you know and that's it and their capacity is extremely higher extremely whatever it's huge a you know compared to a graphics card because it's literally dedicated for that literally solving math equations I'm in a dorm so I don't pay anything for power Patel says is it worth 30 bucks if I have to remove if the rebate were 30 bucks by after a movement sticker and forfeit the option to return the item that's pretty messed up like you have to forfeit your rebate or you have to forfeit your I assume it's your warranty to get a rebate so I would just look at the like objectively the price of the item if you're getting a thirty dollar rebate it's probably close to like a hundred two hundred maybe even three hundred bucks so yeah I probably wouldn't just in case you know you can like check reviews and see how reliable the thing is but uh that's a pretty crappy shady thing for a company to do if you have to void your warranty dude I think rebates are the biggest scam every other trash I never got my five dollar Coolermaster even his back and try to principle like - it's like two years man it was a hyper t4 as I bought it myself I mean I was like they gave it to me but jeez like you know that and that was the only rebate that I even filed for because I thought they were crap before this proves to me now that they're still crap so I wouldn't buy a product expecting a rebate unless you're willing to wait three or four months and heckle the company to make sure that you didn't violate any of the Terms of Service - to be you know ballot for it they said have they do you monetize this stream yes they did yeah we talked about the beginning of this lesson you know at about twenty seconds I've already I've already I've always got my rebates but seriously you have to wait three months for ten dollars if you need to wait three months for ten dollars you need a better job yeah like they're banking on it what somebody I think it was Linus is said that like for every $10 rebate like the company is only paying out like three dollars of that like and overall for the probably like they're they're probably paying out 30% or maybe less than that of the rebates out there because you have to fill out a paper then you're usually gonna mail it in like you're physically mail it in and that's what they're banking on that you just don't care to do that not that I blame you but you know it's just it just makes it look pretty when you're going to buy the product oh I can get this back if I do it you get the product you're satisfied with it you're like yeah ten bucks isn't that big a deal yeah there's YouTube tear cut stream donations yes the amount of currency in circulation needs to be regulated the currency itself needs to be regulated and empowered by the people Scooby Doo I spent around 90 thousand dollars on Bitcoin and got about a hundred Simon we send me your dress please you see me whitey what's your favorite price to performance GPU I have a video on that just type in best value CPU GPU combo I'm not gonna tell you what it is I'm sure somebody on the stream oh but I want your currency probably at some point yeah it's at some point there's a video on that that we got screwed by the armored them go check out how many views I have yeah we got rekt on that people were asking for that non-stop and it only got like nineteen thousand views yeah I got video is on freakin tessellation that have four times that number know what's going on yeah guys if you guys so this is sort of me begging sauce asking but if you guys want to see the videos and you know actually be sure that you're gonna see them next to the subscribe button I'm sure you've heard this a hundred times there's a bell if you click the bell it's gonna send you a push notification when we upload a video or go live or anything like that which it used to do that anyway but I guess with a saturation of subscription boxes and that sort of stuff the average person having a ton of subscriptions they changed it so if you want to make sure that you actually get notified then click a little Bell thing or follow you know dragging me on Twitter or whatever you know what we need to do we need to have like a you know like on twitch when someone donates they get like all the bells and whistles go off in the livestream and like the person's names like flashing right in front of them we need to do something like that we're like if anyone subscribes or donates anything we need to like have it built into our livestream platform or just like goes crazy on them you know like maybe I'll push a little more interaction at least for the sub thing I'll be really cool yeah those broken anyways I hope not yeah I felt it is pretty broken all of this do you believe in the technological singularity that's a question for will download nice hash epic I'm worried notification spa don't do that I'm so he told me to smash the bell icon and I punched my TV I see we have to ruin a pieces like equipment every time we ask yeah Phoenix up to 30 you 300 youtubers I'm not clicking 300 bells alright well then why are you subbed in the first place I'll make you I'll make you a deal you don't have to push the bell on everybody just don't push it on ours yeah yeah like what really sucks is there's there's a two-step thing right it's not a one-step thing like it used to be like if you want notifications you have to enable that after the fact so a lot of people just click the sub button and expect to get notified when people upload videos or they get their little toolbar on the left that says hey we have 4 videos you haven't seen yet by the law that's cool but I like the old way of doing it if you want to be 7 to 300 channels that's on you you know liking arrow down if we don't make the cut fine so be it will improve but if you know you have to do two different things to be notified which is what a subscription actually is when you're directly notified when something goes live then I think that that whole system is broken and even then some people who click the bell icon aren't actually being notified when videos go live for channels so it's just trash Will's not working for me well it will just works with me Will's got a lot of a lot of stuff going on he runs he runs a lot of really cool things that are in and out of this country he likes uh he likes kind of tinkering with the algos and seeing how everything works behind this Manor so I'm really sketchy no I don't like manipulate anything we like we like you know we like to see why things happened the way they do like the fact that this video was demonetized right away boom the keyword killing itself there you go and I'm sure because this videos to be cleaned it's gonna be read to monetize I just said that when you click the Bell YouTube should send a USPS mail when any of those log you that's actually not a bad idea if you're like 10 10 days late but how do you really want to get the Fool's joke oh man I get email notifications when I click the bell icon I absolutely hate the Bell okay so then like what is the point of subscribing like ireally is it just so that we show up in your feed because YouTube does that automatically I mean seriously it does like if you watch a certain channels videos over and over and over whether or not your sub to them or not you're gonna get their videos in your feed that's just how the algorithm works so there's got to be a distinction between a subscription you really want to watch the videos that's what a subscription should be in my opinion but I don't I don't know what's going on read baby appreciate that Scooby dooby I appreciate your viewpoints by the way on Bitcoin I thought he said something about how Bitcoin mining is essentially the same thing is printing money will would you like I am I mean I already know right off the bat I don't think that's true for Bitcoin is it well yeah I mean it's no mining for Bitcoin the difference is there's a set amount that we're in mind and the difficulty goes up right there's a curve to it so it's a controlled release of coins so it's not at all like a normal currency there's no government that controls it there's no political agendas behind it and that's that's why it's sort of you know I'm looking at the wrong screen but that's sort of why it's you know become as large as it has right you know you went from everybody talking about oh it's gonna crash it's gonna crash people have been telling me it's gonna crash since 2013 you know we I've watched it crash I think like I've watched it go from being worth $30 a coin to being worth $2,000 a coin and then crashing back to $12 a coin in a matter of five minutes right like it was very unstable in beginning but as the network has grown and been so diverse like it's been diversified it's it's not really a problem so much I think you know in losing 10% of its value in five minutes and dropping and people freaking out about that the people who freaked out about that are used to dealing with the stock market right they're not used to dealing with cryptocurrency so a 10% swing every day is is not uncommon and if 10% makes or breaks of cryptocurrency for you then you shouldn't invest in it right I think you you obviously if you're gonna put money into something like this we actually expect to lose it right I mean this is not something you should look at is like I mean the whole disclaimer about I'm not a financial advisor blah blah blah but like don't you know don't put your kids you know college fund into Bitcoin right a lot of people are like taking a loans out to get bitcoins it's just like just cringy I don't know yeah like you're really really playing with fire someone said is my correct this person someone said that we get paid when we get subscriptions and that's not true we might get better ads as the pea bit better our CPM might go up if we have more subscribers than less but we don't get like anything for a subscription like if you've sucked it that's zero for us I mean it helps us we want you so obviously but like we don't get anything monetarily for a subscription it's it's more or less like the subscription drives the view right you're gonna be more inclined to watch the video if you're subscribed to any extent whether you get an email or not what people don't like the emails anymore I get you're subscribed to 300 channels cool it'd be a lot of emails totally get that but you know if you want to send you're on your left toolbar feed whatever if you're subscribed or if you do want that more direct notification then that in turn will provide us very small small percentage of the revenue but um it does also this hat no I don't work for them and it's not sponsored I just have it you know like it my hair is a complete mess so it's someone asking about that but if you if they want to sponsor us I tweeted at the last week na komm did anything you knew him like yeah he yeah I did a bunch of stuff in the server days with this company so I just have you know I have a hat from them some stickers and random junk laying around but yeah if you if you guys want to force them to talk to us then tweet at name.com yeah sometime written it jeez I'm reading a bunch of these like comments about pyramid schemes and stuff like it's just concrete yeah I mean I think that people people that either hate on Bitcoin or don't understand it I mean it is what it is right so I don't like when people say they're there one way about something and that's the way it is most of them don't understand it I think that's the net neutrality problem most people don't understand how the internet works a lot of people that I respect completely don't understand what's going on with that issue ality right and they're talking in an area they don't have any expertise in so I mean you know if you don't know about that one shut up someone asks what the best what our first fire we'll hit video is it was probably the Apple video or I spent like two K in my own cache on Apple stuff that one that Dunn's videos are still making us money which is pretty surprising but Apple in and of itself is like its own like money-making machine so any of the channels you see out there they're like doing Apple content chances are they're getting tons of views just because it's such a hot word with the algo what motherboard for rising seven seventeen hundred you could get by with a be 350 board so just get a beat it's important that you like I'm not gonna tell you which one to get you want to be able to earn enough Bitcoin to pay off the medical bills I I want to be able to earn up Bitcoin Apple tech ages slowly crunchy for sure you guys I only heat on virtual currency because mining has wrecked GPU pricing crunching for sure thank God don't I love products I think that it's great that there is a currency that is accepted that is not the US currency well I mean anything really its currency if you want to call it currency when you trade or barter that's your currency it's your medium of well currencies a medium of exchange but when you're exchanging goods you're giving a good and inherent value all right scooby says look I looked into what cryptocurrency is I researched what it is and my opinion is that it's a scam you're convicting you're convincing other people that lines of code you have are worth something yeah but I you know the reality is and something is only worth what someone's willing to pay for it right yeah you're not you're not ripping anybody off by saying hey if you want to pay this for it you can have it and they agree to the transaction you're not forcing anybody to buy your coin yeah and when you when you look at something like Bitcoin right it's it's built by a massive amount of people everything is transparent if you want to look at the blockchain and see which address now it's a not to a degree right each address is is traceable theoretically there's some that aren't so traceable Bitcoin and cryptocurrencies scared governments because there's an you know Anonymous factor if you look at Pablo Escobar and his whole drug reign right he was making a monetization I said q2 monetization yeah yeah I mean what I've already done one of the you know I mean so I crossed the board made so much money that they literally buried it right it's it's an narcos is a great thing on a flex go watch it yeah there they would bury the money they like you know and when they would ship drugs in and out of the country and whatever they would literally have an entire boat full of bales of money right so that that's something to be concerned about right like what if not what if but when how do you prevent criminals from being able to use it I don't think you can but I don't know like you they have to figure out how can we track this on a different level whereas you know US bank accounts wire transfers you know the IRS and the government can track that you know what really is worth something food water land in entertainment oh yeah yeah III think though I mean I agree with will I think that the transaction itself is voluntary unless you're being forced to use or extreme eeen you really kind of force with with your country's currency but you willingly accept that when you live in that country it's really all you have and it's regulated to some extent hopefully but I think that the people that say that cryptocurrency is just a manipulation tool I mean it's only manipulated the people who agree to be manipulated by it if you know cryptocurrency is an especially Bitcoin I don't even know if I really see it turning into a real currency I mean it is now right but I think the mass adoption might actually be on the back end it might be something banks used it might be you know stuff like that because it could just be it could just be a transmission tool almost because I sorry says you realize when someone is scammed it's voluntary right like no you don't go into a transaction like need to be scammed totally different that's totally different than what this is no and when you use a shady exchange site then yeah you're taking that risk that's the whole point like you have to be educated about crypto currencies yeah I mean you just have to understand how it works and and I think there are a lot of people who don't understand how it works there's a lot of people from Wall Street I'm if you look at how much sheer cash is in it's in Bitcoin right now there's a huge problem because there's no way all those people understand it there there's a lot of people who see it as this you know it's gonna go to the moon or whatever and you know they're gonna cash out at a certain number or whatever but people who just don't understand how it's built how it works it that scares me for sure and I agree with you because I don't you know I just don't know how how they can invest in something they don't understand it appreciate the donation austin your boy paying for that entertainment not that you have to we appreciate anyway mister I can tell sark Conde Grissom what's going on appreciate that donation the new office looks great really ice work Ison it's pretty cool maybe that was that on purpose are you gonna stay in the desks Greg yeah eventually I'm gonna stain them up with some kind of sealant over MDF is really finicky so I might put something on top of the NDF maybe like a counter top or something like a wood wood countertop or something along those lines I'm not sure yet but I have like the mat like I only use this one those right there just kind of for show for now until we actually get this stuff we got Coolermaster sponsoring a bunch of the the peripherals and whatnot but right now I have one of these desk mats that's kind of protecting the MDF itself from getting wet if I have a drink on the table or from like scratches or dents or anything so PM says what are your thoughts on this cord we have one if you're in patreon we have one oh we should probably talk about joining Google Hangouts and that sort of thing yeah yeah yeah so uh so if some of you've been watching in the past we have done Google Hangouts like I guess you want to say like we've had guests on the show so people that watch like all of you in the chat right now what we've done in the past is we've sent a link and said hey if you want to join us in the live stream you can and then you use Google Hangouts to kind of channel yourself in and that is your way of kind of being on the live stream you're just kind of video feeding with both of us and you get to be on the channel but what we've what we've done in the past is kind of mass linked that to everybody in the chat and it gets pretty chaotic right because a lot of people are clicking on we got like a little over 300 people watching right now so we assume 10% of you click that and we're gonna have 30 40 people here we can lay up 8:00 in the session total so what we want to do to give the patreon donors a bit of a bit of leverage here because I think that they don't mean they deserve it they're paying out of pocket for for really no reason just to support us we want to give them an incentive so if you and we haven't talked about really the tier like how we're gonna do a tier why's it really depends on how many people we have to do this it's a lot to structure it accordingly but we're gonna set it up with a certain tier so for anyone who who wants to set up an annual or monthly donation or whatever and that tier level then you'll have the option to join the hangout whenever we do a live stream we do one every Sunday so we'll try to get as many of those people in that tier into the live stream it's just the way we can kind of thank you and and personally involve you for what you're doing for us how much did we donate and how do we get provided the link I would love to join the server so this court he's asking about this court so dis ya already you're for that on patreon look it's like five bucks or something like that and we're probably gonna clear like clarify a lot of that and try to you know make it more detailed so you guys understand it there's a link in the description for patreon but what we're gonna try to do is I guess we'll probably create your most of you will already be in the in the discord but we'll create a channel or whatever you call it in discord for the live streams and then if you guys want if your we'll figure the tiers out or whatever but it would probably be I don't know like 20 bucks or something whatever that's here is that I think we have like I think we already have that tier right they get like a t-shirt and stuff like that yeah we do I don't I don't know yet I mean it's probably gonna be Tier three because they're already certain number of people in that tier so we're gonna see how many of them are gonna be active with the live stream but if we don't anybody from there wanting to be live on the channel with us then we'll drop that tear to like the $5 tier or whatever oh just depends Sam Wu wants a shout out there you go shout out you're also hating on my course there Boyd Pro headset brah ain't nothing wrong with course there voids be nothing wrong with that oh and rich so we talked to a company we're getting t-shirts made we did pick the design how's that been announced way the the winner I yeah it was it was what yeah okay so the winner the t-shirt has been announced we're gonna get those printed and we're gonna see basically we'll see we'll see how fast we can get those out for obviously the people who are already on patreon and then anybody else that wants one and then yeah I'm gonna ship you guys a will I will t-shirt just as a joke my life goal is to walk into an airport and see somebody wearing a shirt with my name on it he does will things into an airport did I would that would be the coolest thing ever and figured out science to do but like that would be really cool to see somebody just wearing like I sure this is will just will that's it like you haven't yours nothing about that that like would be good for someone else to wear okay really like it's not like a social statement there's nothing going on there other than my name and says I will do will things yeah someone else's will those videos with me will has done stuff in the background videos he's never actually been in like real like oh if you want to if you want to see my video skills go to the science in your channel and type in which one is it that you did there's an airline video oh oh no I'm gonna find it now I want everyone to watch of the video yes so it's a be climate it's Amby Amby climate oh yeah this is so good you take pictures on the front I think I think this videos monetized I don't think it is not gonna matter so everyone click on that video and just get yourself like a daily dose of will all right that's what yeah it was a joke because you know it is terrible so I didn't plan on doing the video and then I just got thrown into a lot of script or anything and I got you wait a minute you were doing that video I hadn't like learning on the spot was like well that's a V rally man yeah so basically I'm terrible at videos yeah great a video production he's done that a lot in the past but like being on camera a little different yeah bombing the camera I can I love it but in front of the camera I'm terrible i watch it they're laughing so hard yeah I promise you guys would send me out something I gave some great ideas and questions also the project suggested last time what's going do you remember him gaming I'll never be me um Facebook there's like a hundred people that a message us on Facebook that I still have to get back to you but eventually I go again like 90 people left the stream when that link was posted really go check notice to mine be 280 I realize that but they all clicked on that you know that's frigging rich man that is so rich video yeah I guess we'll give it a couple minutes for them to come back but it was that was that was not my best moment McLovin towards the end of the video yeah I did the worst part is that we tried to go back and like reshoot some of it because I realized that and have a community haven't been clip and I tried to go back and shoot some oh they want you to link the video again yeah I tried to I tried to go back and shoot some of it but the problem was is it's sorry they were closed down like we thought they were supposed to close another day it was a nightmare oh well the mobile users can multitask ads easy bro yeah we can it's okay don't worry about it want to see it but I don't want to miss the light that's alright we're actually about to end the stream it's been what about an hour and 40 minutes or so we have no like set time on these things we just talked ill so we get exhausted I got a video to edit I know Scot well things to do so that's not it's so cool when I said that will Scott will things to do move your head will let them see it let them see it oh this he does will things oh it's right here did you plug it no they can't see it you didn't click it back to you there you go oh nevermind it's just the lane screwed on yeah you're watching the live stream you look at hangouts but yeah I'll put this on t-shirts and send them out to you guys that's so funny everyone comes back yeah no it's all good it was Robin yeah he asked it a couple of times I have an engineering degree I just don't use it loves D McLovin part yeah no that was like super funny we were in Tokyo just kind of like hanging out so we were in our little Airbnb and they're standing on like they're literally standing on the bed Kerry said he'd by will Humphreys I do will things t-shirt oh my god here guys will self promotional thing I knew this was gonna happen eventually goes to see you know Larry Terry I ran into that last chat look at that I just sold t-shirt I really think we should like we should get your shirts and science to do shirts made at the same time just cuz like I think you're sure it's would be a really funny thing to include with the purchase victim is a package deal but I work in a factory where mine's way softer so they wear mine more Wow that's that undercut profit anyway anyway we were in Tokyo and like Jacob and Will are standing on this bed because there's nowhere else to film this we got this big old bright LED light on top of the camera Jacob's like can't see anything and will looks up and there's like an air of em they said to Jacob it's perfect there's an air fit right here this is like this is like the thing in Tokyo you can talk about this where mu and B climate would really come in handy and then they went downstairs and they film something else and I was really impressed with how Jacob was was keeping himself in that video he was pretty profession well pretty profession ya know Jacob ad-lib that entire like his entire part was all just like off the top of his head it was my time to redo that his or mine it's part you had to do years like five times Julie or who lien who was the name who and I forgot is when we started that's why if you watch the video yeah I'm here with any like comes out like the final cut was like hey I'm here at CES 2017 but you could totally tell there's a once as best as we could and it's a same boolean a prettier boolean robbers like is that read so he was saying like he gets up there and meets this guy like this guy's like the CEO of and you live or whatever their company's name was so he shakes his hand since whatever blah blah and then they're like all right we're gonna start filming so I think I'm one of us oh no I was holding the GoPro for the secondary so will looks at the cameras like hey what's up everyone here took copy text 2017 here with Julie I mean holy it he gives well this look like dude okay yeah if you watch the video like you can tell this facial expression changes because he's like okay they're definitely gonna redo this clip and then at the end of it I was like alright cool we got the clip thanks bro it's so good oh my gosh yeah it was pretty trash I don't know you wanna you want to sign off and well I guess we'll leave them you span the link in there again then we're gonna span the link one more time boom get it get it boys and
