The WAN Show - Ubisoft is trying to be cool and YouTube supports 60FPS now! - June 27th, 2014

The W Show: A Review of the Surface Pen and Microsoft's Genius

As I sit here with my Surface device, I'm met with frustration because I've been struggling to get the pen to stash properly. The Geniuses at Microsoft must be very smart, but it seems that even their own engineers have come up with a solution that's not entirely satisfactory. There's a little magnet on the charging port where you're supposed to attach the pen, but somehow this simple mechanism has been missed.

In order to make use of the pen, I need to stick a sticker on the device and then put the pen through the loop on the sticker. It's almost like they've engineered a fraction of a scent solution to a problem that actually matters – it's a clever idea, but not necessarily the most practical one. The reason I like how my 2DS is made is because it's super easy to get the pen out; there's a colored piece of plastic on the back where the pen goes, making it simple to grab and put back.

I've had some issues with the keyboard, specifically the Type Cover. While some people have been critical of its design, I find it surprisingly good. The keyboard itself is thin, but that's part of its charm. If it were fantastic, I would have kept it – unfortunately, it's not quite up to par.

The Keyboard is Not the Main Issue

I've noticed that many people are complaining about the keyboard, saying that it's not as good as they expected. However, I find that it's actually quite decent once you get used to it. The Type Cover keyboard has its quirks, but overall, I think it's a solid piece of hardware.

One thing that's become apparent is that Twitter is a great platform for getting in touch with people. As someone who only accepts messages on Twitter and Facebook, I've noticed that my inbox can get pretty full. However, when I finally do check my messages, they're often quick to respond.

The Importance of Asking Questions

One of the most frustrating things about being online is getting questions that are too long for a tweet. Unfortunately, this seems to be a common issue – people will post lengthy questions, hoping that someone will respond and provide an answer. The problem is, I get so many messages like this all at once.

The Solution: Ask on the Forum

In order to avoid overwhelming myself with long questions, I recommend posting your query on the Linus Tech Tips Forum instead. This platform has become a go-to resource for tech-savvy individuals who want to ask and answer questions. Not only does it provide a better experience for everyone involved, but it also means that you're more likely to get an accurate response.

Charity Stream and Afterparty

Finally, I want to mention that I'll be doing my 24-hour charity stream soon, which I mentioned earlier this weekend. The event will take place on Afterparty tonight, and I'm excited to connect with all of you who have been supporting me.

I've always been a fan of the classic TV show Child's Play – it's a cult favorite that never fails to put a smile on my face. Maybe one day we'll even get a junk physics shirt with a Linus Tech Tips logo... but for now, that's just a pipe dream.

Junk Physics and Beatboxing

As I wrap up this episode of The W Show, I'm reminded of the importance of having fun and being creative. Even something as mundane as beatboxing can be enjoyable – although, admittedly, I'm not quite good enough to make it sound like real music.

In conclusion, that's all for today's show. If you're tuning in late, don't worry – the archive will be available on YouTube sometime soon. And if you're one of our loyal viewers who has been complaining about how long it takes for the archive to go up, rest assured that it'll be worth the wait.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enand like way better we're going to have polls live polls so that you and me can set up the polls on our own website then there will be a history of the poll and we can try I don't want to know the history of any po if someone is watching the live stream they'll be able to see the pole you know how we have straw poles so instead if they're watching an archive if they watch the archive on our site they should be able to see the pool the history of the pool groy all of the history we're live now as if it was never erased or cleaned the whole history of the poll the pole should be cleaned at some point or Another We're just discussing an upcoming website feature welcome to the vanan show thank you guys very much for tuning in my laptop screen just wow it just completely crapped itself I wish I was screen sharing with you guys I opened up a Google doc and like my desktop icons like flashed through it for a couple seconds and they gone computers man computers man welcome to the show um so let's kick things right off let's let's let's make things easy for ourselves we've got a bunch of great topics for you today first up is Google cardboard you can use an ordinary cardboard box and a smartphone to make your own virtual reality headset okay it might not be quite as sophisticated as the Oculus Rift but more or or as easy as what I just did just there a little bit more complicated than that but it should make for an easy lowcost way to make that happen next up we've got Ubisoft just keeps on digging it's almost like this week they were trying to find something popular to say so that we don't like DRM we're going to do things yeah we're which don't include getting rid of DRM what else we got we also have YouTube tip jar so you'll be able to tip up to something talk about that later to YouTube creators while watching their videos and twitch and YouTube are both going to be playing at 60 FPS now wowps to u u i can watch PewDiePie yell with that much more clarity now tweet tube tweet tube all right intro time we are moving the microphone down Probably sounds horri ah it's not that bad I've got it in my ears all right we have a few sponsors for you this week uh earlier this week we actually did a sponsored live stream we call these ask the expert and we're going to talk to you guys about what we did discussed with Darren Lynch from Intel as well as give you guys the exclusive link to watch the archived live stream so I hope you enjoy that next up we've got Squarespace and that's not the one that I meant to do wow back to this and oh now everything is bricked and terrible okay Squarespace 10% off with offer code lineus also we are going to announce the winner of a free oneyear Squarespace subscription and finally we we've got Dollar Shave Club shave time shave money join the club visit Dollar Shave Club in order to get highquality bathroom supplies shipped straight to you your door and that is it for my oh yeah and it's not very expensive hence the dollar I mean it doesn't cost a well it can cost a dollar but it doesn't cost a dollar for like the really good stuff but it's still a lot cheaper than the other thing so I think I've gotten my point across now and yes the intro was playing and the music was broken I actually kind of liked talking over the music we should have music in the background so um next week we'll get like a music track but for this week can you just kind of beatbox while I do the show all right so our first topic this week is going to be the uh well if I had my topics open I'd be able to do that YouTube now runs at 60 FPS they actually announced a really bunch of the best part is I'm a horrible beatboxer I can't do anything I have no abilities whatsoever but if we actually had an actual beatboxer that could have been maybe cool I don't know no probably not I have about the beatboxing skills of like that random six-year-old kid on the playground who thinks he's a plane that's that's about it or that kid that used to run around the track while making motorcycle noises the sophisticated kids put the playing cards in the spoke so there you go yeah I did that when I was like 12 I think I did as well actually yeah I think I should have been younger than 12 when I was doing that all right so this was originally posted on the Forum by RT YouTube now supports the 60fps I actually retweeted this tweet last night because I was pretty stoked on this news but there you go so what they say is motion intense videos will look even better on YouTube when we launch support for 48 and 60 FPS yes so bring on the Hobbit piracy since that's the only thing that comes to mind that 48 frames per second no but seriously though higher frame rates are better for many things I know you guys are probably expecting me to say well now every single video on YouTube should run at 60 FPS but that's not necessarily the case game play will definitely benefit from this um things like running around with a the camcorder probably not so much the main benefit the reason that we shoot all of our Channel super fun stuff for example in 60fps is the ability to slow it down to half speed and still play at 30 FPS which to the eye with appropriate motion blur does still look very fluid the problem with games is that the eye and graphics cards they well they don't inherently have motion blur they don't actually um help you put the pieces together of each of these frames the way that something like a film does so 60 FPS exciting one little trick you have to turn it up to 1080p in order to enable 60 FPS also if you're in Firefox you might not be able to see it automatically so if you go download all HTML 5 or some other HTML 5 add-on which can switch YouTube to HTML 5 by forcing it um then you'll be good to go I am so over Firefox at this point between it logging me out of the Forum all the time and just flat out not working very well and crashing a lot over the last little while I think uh We've pretty much broken up so Firefox is now my tertiary browser whoa yeah what's your second at home I am I'm actually using Chrome IE Firefox why not like opera or something Opera doesn't work with anything yeah it does no no I use I use on Chrome Okay Google straight up doesn't support Opera and Google doesn't support Opera no they they say blah blah blah blah blah sometimes when you log into stuff they'll be like uh yeah this feature works on Firefox and chrome and then half the time it doesn't work on Firefox and the other half of the time it doesn't work on Chrome so I have a feeling within the next few years Google is going to try to basically eradicate everything except for Chrome because I I honestly think a lot of the issues that are coming in are based around Google just being like NOP no no we're doing all this it seems to be mostly flash related for Firefox for me yeah and I mean it's not like Adobe and googler In Cahoots so I think it's gota I gotta just blame the Mozilla team for this I don't know but if the flash thing's your problem just download the HTML 5 add-on and you're good to go yeah even then not everything runs on HTML 5 sometimes flash things exist and then my browser crashes and then and this is this is something that I have an issue with with both Firefox and chrome is it seems like about 30% of the time the restore last browsing session feature just doesn't work I have literally never had a problem with that with fire I had it happened last night last very night last night was my last night did you have multiple windows open of course I did I always do you know what my computer looks like because some of because I need to be able to alt tab between certain sets of tabs very quickly so for example see like he's complaining about his Ram he has to upgrade his Ram doesn't do anything other than web browse ofing his Brown I have to upgrade my desktop my brother's taking like five gigs of RAM oh yeah I know I I'm having troubl defending Firefox lately I hope they pick it up because I don't know I feel a lot more safer on Firefox than I do on Chrome yeah well there you go um all right so cat oh this is something really cool that also came out of the uh VidCon event recently they are adding caption crowd sources so every single video will just say butts butts butts butts butts on the bottom well probably the first thing I thought of when I read that was like okay every single video that's going to attract like a certain crowd is just going to have like buts yeah there's going to be a lot of potential for this to be griefed I have to think though that once the initial sort of spam dies down it'll probably start to it'll probably settle in I think videos like ours will probably do reasonably well by comparison and the way that I see except for this one which will probably just have butts butts butts on it yeah someone will go and hide it like 34 of the way through where no one's going to be looking at the captions I mean especially in English it's probably going to be more a matter of going through and fixing the mistakes of the automatic one yeah um so I mean I'm sure YouTube will be able to tell cuz in much the same way that they can take the audio track and they can caption it I'm sure they can take the captioning and somewhat validate it so figure out if it's like that far off yes okay that's what I expect to happen although this is all just me guessing these features are not out yet that makes sense though and if they're not doing that now they probably should and they'll probably think of that or figure that out at some point in time maybe P 10% um so I find a lot of the news that just happened um in in this one segment are all like PewDiePie because it's YouTube 60fps and tip jar so if he's having problem well he's he's like doing okay for doing okay but game streamers in general aren't probably going to make as much money on their ads so tip jars are going to help game streamers a lot and 60fps is going to help game streamers a lot so I find it actually kind of surprising that both these things are landing when traditionally they didn't really seem to care about game streamers it's it's actually kind of refreshing to see YouTube Bend to the will of the community for a change instead of just marching off in a direction and doing whatever the heck it is that they want go plus integration and screw you just expecting everyone to sort of fall in line I mean we want you know higher quality content and we want this and we want that it's like guys that's great but people are not watching that they're watching PewDiePie do whatever it is speaking of PewDiePie I actually was this close to retweeting one of his tweets for the first time ever I do follow him on Twitter and I agreed with this so hard and I was just like Google what are you doing twitch play Pokemon is in our chat again oh L that's so cool I saw him in last week too I was like what the hell all right so I'm going to screen share with you guys for a second here check this out so in the old days I would click on my name and I would go to video manager you can see that that's still working on this page for some reason it must be a really old one they changed it today yeah there we go so my name is now gone this is great I can show the before and after my name is now gone now I get to click on this I get to click on Creator Studio wait around for that to load it slow ass and then I get to go way over here and click on video manager in order to manage my videos which is where I spend 99% of my time when I am logged into my YouTube channel um YouTube seems to be trying to pay attention to the needs of creators they're finally giving us a dedicated YouTube creator app which will allow us to manage things that's actually pretty cool that's pretty cool although honestly there's not that much more that I needed to do they could have just fixed you know broken like outright broken stuff like here's a couple of examples um when you're loading comments it just stops working after a while and then you can't restore it other than by reloading the page and then scrolling back to that point again you can't see the most recent comments first and then the other one that was just broken as all heck is when I would try to reply to a comment I think it is and then go back it would reload the comments and I'd have to start over again at the top it's like you wonder why YouTubers aren't interacting with their audiences much you're making it as difficult as possible for us oh my God it's it's it's the the comment system as a whole is ridiculous I I watched a video the other day that was uploaded that day this was like a day or two ago but for some reason it had the old comment system yeah and it was so refreshing it's so much better I'm going to be honest with you I couldn't tell the difference really yeah I had there was a video recently it was a funk commercial that we did and I was reading through the comments and everyone was freaking out about how it was the old comments and I actually couldn't remember the difference between them anymore the reply buttons there on everything um and honestly it looked cleaner it's mostly mostly there are reply buttons on everything now like people have basically just kind of accepted it you know I don't know Dro TR and I still have a problem I'll read through the comments and someone will ask a question directed at me and I try to reply and I'm like this is not possible that still happens to this day my favorite is that well and but there are issues with the old comment system that I think people forget in the old comment system someone could have contact lock on and there would still be a reply button so you'd click reply you'd type up a nice long reply to them you'd click it it would go away and it would tell you this person has contact lock on they did not receive your message actually never ran into that that's a lot worse that's like a hundred times worse at least I don't have to waste my time trying to reply to people who ask me questions that don't have a reply button on their comments I can see up front haha I don't have to talk to you because you didn't do the thing yeah yeah so at least there's that I don't know I think I ran Twitch Plays Pokemon off because the the chat freaked out way to go smart guy we actually we had someone cool in our chat for the first time ever I mean the rest of you are cool too but like someone like crazy famous on Twitch cool well when when my brother and I were streaming we had Day N come in and say hi yeah I think myself or my brother I don't remember which one was wearing a day n shirt and after his stream ended he went to the homepage and saw us homepage and he was like what that's why he came into the chat and was like hello oh he's still here still here y anyways all right so our you know it's funny cuz my issue on Firefox is that the Forum keeps signing my me out my issue in Chrome is it keeps signing me back in when I sign out stop it like no you must have your proper account for this listen to me all right so this was originally posted by Twisted dictator on the Forum and this is Ubisoft the original article from Gamespot this is Ubisoft coming out and saying well DRM can't stop piracy actually this article is fantastic it's so ridiculous full of all the win okay so VP of digital publishing from Ubisoft says I don't want us in a position where we're punishing a paying player for what a pirate can get around so where you are right now that position that you're like very deeply rooted in you don't want to be there okay so Witcher developer CD project red uh thinks that DRM is an ineffective way to stop piracy on the PC them I actually believe because they've been reasonably friendly in the past however Ubisoft is just like what popular thing can we say that Gamers will like so that they will stop hating us as hard as we deserve deserve to be hated right now and so that oh this is great so what's key for us is making sure we're delivering an experience to paying players that is quality so the question becomes what do we create as services or as benefits and the quality of the game that will just have people want to pay for it and I'm just kind of sitting here going blah blah blah so okay the more services there the reality it is the more services there are in a game well Pirates don't get that stuff so when it's a good game and there's good services around it you're incentivized to not pirate the game to get the full experience this is all true it's just that Ubisoft it's not like they actually said well here's an upcoming game that we're going to go you know uh steam DRM only or we're going to go zero actionable items yeah there there's nothing there's not a Microsoft might as well you know uh publish an open letter about how they're committed to PC Gamers for all the emptiness of this statement that has nothing to do with anything oh my God I mean it's not like I agree with the Pirates I mean this is this is this is interesting um there was a claim uh that Bethesda recently released Wolfenstein the New Order was pirated over a 100,000 times in the first week and obviously you can't say oh well then they lost whatever 60 times 100 so what 60 mill6 million do in Revenue whatever that works out too um lost $6 Million worth of Revenue because of pirates you can't really do the math that way but you can't do the math that way at all we have to agree that it is a problem and I don't agree with the typical you know quite frankly stupid argument that you know uh piracy doesn't hurt cuz it's you know basically like if if they deserved my money you know after I if I played it okay here this guy this guy basically made me pretty mad uh Russ takeout okay uh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah so this guy is like well people buy good or great games the problem is when you have a game with a 5H hour single player and lousy multiplayer how do you justify 60 bucks for it piracy helps the individual to test the game I downloaded 10 to 20 games this year and purchased the 3 to four that let me play for at least a few weeks and I'm kind of sitting here going well no because if you want to have the experience you should pay for it if the experience wasn't good enough to have then you don't have to buy it and not every game cost $60 wait like 3 weeks and it'll probably be 30 transistor like just came out it's already 25% off on Steam Sale exactly so if you don't think something is worth the cost 100% then just wait a little while and if you're not willing to wait well then I'm sorry I guess you get to pay and you can't just say oh well if something can't be reused 100 times then it's not worth buying I mean by that logic do you refuse to buy condoms or food it's basically the same thing it seriously is no I know I was just trying something that isn't reusable over and over again dogs try to make food reusable dogs oh that's gross you know my old Pony when I was a kid oh no she would basically like if we if we imagine that this is the pony the crap would come out this end he would turn himself 180° no yep you know how that story I I don't know like especially with how Steam Works nowadays we were talking about the Steam Sale uh last time on the show about how it's just like yeah all this stuff has pretty much been on sale for these prices already like not a ton of them were super amazing that's that's because everything gets discounted so hard just wait like three days I fear for twitch chat what you can't reuse condoms twitch chat twitch chat that I mean I guess theoretically you could it's but the effectiveness well I mean it already has a pretty scary Effectiveness 99% is not that good that's true that's still one out of 100 times the funny horri the funny thing about the 99% Effectiveness is that I'm not 100% sure how you calculate that is it 99% of the time you have sex you won't cause a pregnancy or is it 99% of the times that you would have caused a pregnancy it doesn't because it's hard to because I mean if it's 99% of the time there won't be a pregnancy it's not even helping as much as we think because about 60% of the time to 70% of the time the the fertility is not an issue anyway and nothing would have happened so H that's that is actually kind of interesting either way it's still scary I feel like we've gotten off topic a little bit we have a little bit maybe a lot of bit let's talk about Android TV we aren't even necessarily done with the previous topic oh okay what do you have something to say cuz I can just take a drink go for it um I I found it interesting that the main thing that he was saying was uh services and benefits they want to add on to games if you've been noticing something they've been doing for a long time now is these these multiplayer aspects that they've been adding to games I don't know how many times you've talked to someone about that super awesome enthralling Assassin's Creed multiplayer that you played with no one because no one really does that um or the awesome strapped on stapled together multiplayer that's in Watchdogs I think they need to they're talking about this quality of the game in quality services and benefits but a lot of their quality services and benefits don't really seem thought out it seems like they built the entire game and then we're like oh yeah we need these things that pirates don't get so we're going to make this weird really really bad ship mini game in Assassin's Creed that this is the only way you can get certain items and then we're going to put it in your ship and everyone's going to hate it so cool like I don't make good ones make interesting ways to work with your friends and I know they're working on it like uh Far Cry 4 and Assassin's Creed Unity have these Co-op things where someone can enter your game and then help you do like an open world thing but they can't help you with storyline missions and stuff and then I don't really that seems weird again so I don't know maybe work on that a little bit and then people might care but for now they're probably just going to Pirate your game I won't but they probably will and I I think it's funny that they brought they're bringing all this to light right now yeah I know right because then everyone's going oh yeah I can just pirate all your stuff did you see how many comments there were about that they're like oh yeah I was waiting for Watch Dogs and then now I'm just going to Pirate it it's like wow why did you wow not good timing I wonder if piracy rates would go down if they just stopped talking about shut up there's an interesting they need to shut up put their heads down and work on stuff and make really good releases for Assassin's Creed and Far Cry what's the upcoming Assassin's Creed Unity Unity yeah okay French Revolution sure sure that could be good it could who knows hopefully they'll make the PC version look exactly the same as the console version oh there was other there was another Ubisoft thing they were saying you know why it's challenging to have the PC version come out at the same time is the console version and something blah blah blah does your hups in your company make them look the same yeah anyway here we go uh Android TV so it looks like Google uh Google IO they actually had a bunch of stuff they were talking about they showed off the upcoming Android L whatever it's going to be licorice lollipop ludicrous ludic keeping with our Rap Theme um I hope Asus wants to do laptop Integrations again with with the new one ends with JK oh and I will just never stop all the terrible jokes no I don't want to talk about that anyway um it weighs a lot JK it's light so they showed off a bunch of really cool stuff they showed off some really Pointless Stuff they're moving to a more circular sort of design language now which to me is kind of like oh that's great I'll put that on my circular phone that I don't have I guess if if they want if they want Android phones to stop looking like iPhones so all these lawsuits can just go away it's like discus things yeah this is this is the Samsung Galaxy Milky Way and it's like it's like this shape that would be amazing with like a sphere it with like a curv screen see that curv screen sphere in the middle like and that comes out the back you know the the LG like you know orb Flex the or it doubles as a discus throw it to your friend and the built-in accelerometer speakers the built-in accelerometer will tell you how fast it FW and when and when your friend doesn't catch it it'll say uhoh Well it falls and you'll be able to hear it because it has a speaker the size of the entire back yeah all these smart features the Samsung sh no wrong the speaker should not be the size of the back I've been working on my LG G3 review as well as my Surface 3 Pro review and they both have rearm mounted speakers which is still wrong in this day and age what if it's a discus thing still wrong still wrong and I still hate it so you want like a bezel around the front of the disc for a circular speaker there yeah a bezel disc now with 30% more bezel new and improved oh no oh not this again coming soon Android TV now with 30% more TV Honestly though that might be applicable this whole Android TV thing I'm kind of sitting here going like how many times are you guys going to relaunch the same thing it's like we really really really want Android to run on your TV the old you know little USB sticks or HDMI sticks those aren't good enough anymore chomecast isn't good enough anymore uh Standalone boxes like the posos player or that a thing what was it called I don't remember something box I don't know I didn't care then all these all these Google operating system things no we're doing much better now we're just doing regular Android this time but with a different skin over top so it's XBMC but like Android or something and there's a world of content in games there's actually not too much detail about it right now but you can get Batman Begins Man of Steel The Lego Movie and The Hobbit desolation of smog if you want wanted to watch one good movie and uh one really good movie and two slightly less than good movies Oscar nominated there's going to be so much infighting on what movies you're talking about they're adding voice control which I guess is interesting if you didn't already have a chomecast and an Android phone and this functionality seems like it could have just as easily happened that way the one place where I see this really being valuable is in terms of more power hungry type of applications so Nvidia actually on their own blog is talking about this as well they are saying they want the K1 so that's their upcoming chip of course they do they want the K1 to be the first validated chip for Android TV which could be interesting because we'd be looking at both a powerful local gaming experience as well as a streaming experience with you know Netflix and all that other stuff and um having the ability to stream from the cloud or view things things and Playback things and game locally it seems like I guess it'll be somewhat valuable I just I don't see it as that different from so many other things that are out there I mean you look at something like Ouya I mean is this really different from Ouya with a skin on it is it is it skins a lot though skins user experience what do you complain about a lot with phones yes okay the skin is important I'm just saying did we need a dedicated I like my CH casts I see no real reason to change for my chomecast right well chomecast latency isn't anything special so there's that if you wanted to game on your big screen I'm not going to play Android games on my big screen no you aren't but this is NVIDIA we're talking about so if we could see integration with their gam stream technology like the way I'd like to see Nvidia go Shield right right um but what you don't have a way to do right now is get a low latency HDMI connection from your Shield to your TV okay so if that could be integrated you could have a wireless controller or you could use your Shield as a wireless controller like the way I see Nvidia going with this to make it really successful is have there be an experience just for having an Nvidia chip in the device so they enable game stream as long as there's an Nvidia chip in your device then if you have a shield then you enable second screen type things like what Nintendo's trying to do with Wii U or with the ability to use your Shield as a controller and then switch screens when you run away just like Nintendo's trying to do with the Wii U but hopefully better than the Wii U like a lot of the stuff they do with the Wii U is pretty stupid Mario Kart 8 has sold 2 million copies which is unfreaking real not to mention how many Wii U they're selling now I think they're on track to sell more than PS4 and Xbox I if if that's still trending that was trending like that before we left for Highlander so I'm not entirely sure anymore freaking badass but what I do have to say about Mario Kart 8 and the Wii U is that the second screen is not very useful there yeah yeah it's dumb you can make it a mini map but then like it's in your hands it's in your hands I don't anyone who looks away from the screen for more than a split second in Mario Kart is like red shelled up the ass so like no I don't know but then I don't mind that controller for it either because if you try to use the motion controls for it it's a lot better than weote controll anyway get it yeah the second screen does work for that game but I don't think they need the second screen to be amazing for every single game yeah that's true um so there's a couple more things for Android TV it's so blah blah blah clean interface allows multiplayer gaming with people on Android tablets when was the last time you played a multiplayer game over Android this one of the really big problems with Android gaming is there're like here's a new platform that you can can take these games which are not made for this platform and play them on and it's like no I don't want to do that yeah I mean no wants to do that it's the same issue that PC Gamers have nobody makes good co-op games for Android it's like what like what and yeah okay okay twitch chat you're going to have like four examples I don't care it's not really my point my point is that it's not a focus Android games are focused on this experience PC PC gaming Co-op is starting to come back a little bit not enough not enough not enough I'll tell you what when Microsoft releases re-releases that Halo package for the PC and it includes Halo 1 campaign co-op oh God then a you won't see me on W show because I'll be too busy playing Halo campaign co-op and B I will believe that something's changing my dad and I went through and beat that campaign on every possible difficulty not because we couldn't beat it on legendary yet just just because we were bored like I think we literally I think we beat on legendary and then like went back and beat on the other ones cuz remember you'd get the different Shields at the bottom of the level selector so we got all of them cuz we were just like this is cool cuz why not and it was a really good game to co-op the last M ah whatever everyone's like try try try yeah it's like one game smartass and we both love it and we have a video review and we finished it and I played it with my wife and that was great and she was like oh that was fun we haven't played games together in a long time and I was like yeah that was fun that was great um and she was like yeah what other games can we play I'm like none Portal 2 for like the not as good as the single player co-op that it has actually the only game that we found to uh to play together recently is this one it's actually a fantastic game and everyone should play it it's uh it's free for the basic version and if it ever manages to launch then I'd love to show it to you guys but in the meantime do you want to bring up girl in the chat said Android TV equals every Smart TV ever except probably a lot better A lot better Smart TVs are dumb and they're just terrible they suck just made of so much terrible and oh man that's another thing that's been driving me crazy about how to address it with the uh with the LG G3 so the G3 has one of the most terrifying end user license agreements that I've ever seen and just with the recent thing that came out about their Smart TVs and how if you don't agree to it they just downgrade you to a dumb TV it made me really uncomfortable to have like five checkboxes to tick off including all this stuff about personal information sharing just to use my phone this is why PE more than one person asked me on Twitter if I would recommend getting a G3 because of how much I like the G2 this was before I even saw the G3 so it wasn't really fair but either way I said no because of the TV thing it's your phone there's going to be way more personal stuff on your phone than your TV and they're being really Ultra creepy about it yeah so I don't know man not a big fan fan unfortunately this game isn't launching but it's called it's called Pocket Tanks and it's badass so you can they actually have um either Hot Seat multiplayer or you can actually do uh land multiplayer cool so my wife and I will sit in bed with our laptops and like fire little rockets at each other with our tanks and stuff she's pretty good at it tanks she's been kicking my ass lately is it like old school tanks but like new and improved it's not that new we've been playing it since we met we met 9 years ago so okay there you go not new not new at Alla okay I'm old and the things I do are old along the lines of Android TV this is interesting uh razor throwing Oh Come onello technical difficulties thanks for that l awesome beatboxing that wasn't beatboxing even is it just like making noises no is what making noises is just making noises because I saw a beatboxing guy who was like doing other random stuff oh form of vocal P percussion yeah that's not percussion I'm sorry yeah I guess you're closer but I still don't like it um well this is unfortunate okay you might be on screen sharing Duty for the rest of the show here oh okay what am i showing let's see if the issue is um my output or if the issue is the what am i showing capture um you're showing razer's gaming micro console featuring Android TV available this fall uh this was posted originally on the form by dietr W and it looks like that screen sharing is not working anyway I'm afraid like I just I fear for what might happen if I try to uh if I try to properly screen share with you guys because what I'm going to have to do is I'm going to have to refresh my capture card which will about nine times out of 10 um blue screen the computer blue screen the computer is this not working for so I'm going to find another way to share with you guys here we go we'll just do it this way this is no no it didn't work I tried it already it's it's all good try try it now sure okay yeah that didn't work okay so there we go um moving on I tried uh the micro console all right so this was the original article is on end Gadget I'm just going to sorry guys I got to do this kind of manually here this is going to be kind of ghetto so add uh screen region and there we go hey that is beatboxing according to you all right razer's micro console a gaming micro console with Android TV available this fall it should be noted that this is just a render and this is not the finalized Hardware although they haven't exactly gone out on a Lim in terms of showing us something that's difficult to manufacture it's razor so it's probably going to look something like that there's green underlow it's black and there's a logo on the top uh matte black specifically okay okay okay all right okay it's matte black also the logo is shiny the logo is gloss so I get such a kick out of the out of the press statement the micro console can stream movies music and other apps for large screen entertainment with an emphasis on gaming so it's go hardcore gaming so it's Google Android TV and it's got an Nvidia chip inside it and um probably it'll have game stream good job Razer so I think we just completely predicted exactly everything about this product I think that's how they're going to handle the hardcore gaming though and I'm really excited about that I think it makes as much sense as Steam OS um just in home streaming whether it's through valve's solution or nvidia's solution is definitely the future in my mind and uh one thing I'm interested in is how much Steam OS might slow down Windows piracy might not at all no okay tell me this uh Libra office do you still use it uh I didn't use Libra office open Office it's the same thing oh actually I do never mind I do use Libra office and yes I still do use do you use it if you have a choice Yes actually oh all right um but in certain situations I use it on my test bench when viewing test results because it can there's an option that it can give you a preview window okay do you use it when you have serious work to do that's serious work to do that's why like you know what I mean and you're dodging the question over and over again I might add no but we have legit copies of office that's true right so okay but office office using Office 365 now honestly for the price it's a great value subscription base I'm kind of sold on when I was in school and stuff I just used open Office yeah but in school you got free copies of office no I mean like not not that school oh okay right other school yeah not like piracy school no I'm just kidding through through his program at school he was able to get copies of mic CU I was in a software development thing so you get the yeah MERS allian Raz thing is named so far um interface will be managed by Android TV expected this fall um this is kind of funny ex Orbot from The Forum had a really great comment for the haters saying that Ouya and Mojo were commercial failures this will be two and then he responded to that saying how many consoles were unsuccessful or moderately successful until the NES came along and made the formula work I thought that was a really good point I don't necessarily agree that razer's console is going to be the big winner here and I think it's probably going to be some integration within TVs that is going to finally gain traction not smart TV I think it'll be more like what they're trying to do with cars yes Apple and Google have been talking about that lately replacing the craptastic job that they've been doing making their cars intelligent they'll be doing the same thing by replacing the craptastic job that every single TV manufacturer has done with Smart TVs the problem with okay the problem here though is the difference between car manufacturers and TV makers because car manufactur curers have been through the worst of it they're like okay we suck we need outside help someone please come tell us how to capture the minds and hearts of our customers again please whereas TV makers are still living in like this castle of arrogance that we can do no wrong and $40,000 TV we're all going to create our own freaking ridiculously stupid way of doing things that has nothing to do with anything else and this this comes back to and it's not a TV it's the G3 again but this comes back to my G3 review I'm just going to try and find my notes on it it's probably not going to make it into my review because my review notes are five pages and my limit for myself is two pages so but but this is this is great share and connect under networks is like an LG proprietary sharing thing and I'm just like what I have in here is LG and Samsung need to pull their heads out of their asses and work with Open Standards on this kind of stuff I challenge anyone at LG or Samsung to come up with one time one time that some proprietary stupid only within one brand standard worked on a consumer product one time I bet you can't it works with professional grade stuff Sony gets away with it with professional grade stuff because professionals have the budget to go and invest in an entire ecosystem whereas consumers buy things peace meal I mean think about how you buy things as a consumer things other than food let's talk about more expensive stuff obviously you go buy food you buy an entire meal so you go and you buy a hamburger you buy some fries and you buy something else and you expect all those things to go together reasonably well but let's say you go and you buy a house lus doesn't cook much actually let's not let's not talk about let's not talk about house let's come up with something uh um something with a lot of pieces that kind of work okay let's say you furnish a house there's a great example do you go and buy all the same brand Furniture just because there's a chance that it will operate together correctly or do you buy what suits your taste and what's appropriate to each of the different things that you're trying to achieve that's how people buy things consumers that's how consumers buy things and a lot of times especially in the technology space you might buy something and then 3 years later you have to buy something else and then even if you did buy within the same ecosystem they're probably not going to work together anyways I know my favorite is the Galaxy Tab 10.1 the original one that didn't get support for all share yeah whereas the um the cellular everyone's saying they all buy Ika Furniture wrecked Get Wrecked oh it's so true the cellular uh Wireless version had it and there was like a firmware hack that the Samsung rep was telling me I could do and I'm just like really why don't you guys just enable this crap you're locking your own customers out of your own stupid proprietary thing that doesn't even work that well anyway yeah yeah and like I I actually don't know anyone that buys a new a new PC laptop phone fridge washing machine dryer TV tablet all at the same time on game console now and game console like what it's like it just doesn't work that way no no amount of trying to make make it work that way is going to make it work going to make it work that way all right we should probably do our sponsor spot here so uh this is cool you guys some of you anyway are going to probably like this I thought it was pretty neat stay on this page I guess save the pages save the changes um leave this page here we go so this is fun we actually had a really great live stream with Intel earlier this week I'm going to post it in the twitch chat here and I'm going to go ahead I'm going to throw up the lower the lower third that we used for it so it was # Devils Canyon and Intel's new CPUs uh just launched and we actually had one of their product marketing Engineers uh his name is Darren Lynch on the show to talk about behind the scenes which is something so guys go ahead bookmark that go watch it later it's only about an hour long and it's really really informative because there's a ton of stuff about what goes on to bring a CPU you to Market that you don't even think about I mean we were talking about all kinds of crazy options like having a liquid cooler in the Box having a goldplated IHS I mean these are things they've considered and he talked about the reasons why they would be cool the reasons why they just don't work in the real world um even things like changing the box he talks about the challenges involved in that and it might not sound that interesting right now but it was like something like remember when AMD did that tin box for the FX processors it's he kind of laughed when I brought it up because he was like yeah it's funny you mention that because um I can tell you exactly how much that box cost we ran out and looked at how much it would cost to Source it in fact we've done it several times both before and after the competitor did it just and just every time we just kind of looked at it and we went you know like we've looked at packaging for extreme editions that's like a column like a clear column that has the CPU floating at the top that would be pretty Co and he's just like but that package is going to cost $50 so I mean do we take that out of our margin do we charge the customer another 50 bucks then you get customers complaining they're paying $50 for packaging and he's like and frankly I agree with them yeah so that's why it just comes in this box and uh I because I and it was funny because I didn't actually realize at the time that I had someone who had as much influence on the call cuz I was like yeah and what's up with Intel changing the extreme Edition packages to Blue instead of black and he's like well that was actually me who made that call awkward yeah so he was straight up responsible for some of the things that I've been whining about for the last few years and it was really interesting to get his and he wasp yeah he was really honest which was really refreshing and really cool so guys I'm going to link that one more time and you should definitely check it out because it was super educational and uh there you go all right so let's move on to our next sponsor today and that is do Shave Club if I could find there it is arranged your Arenal all right so I have all the Dollar Shave Club stuff now here you can hold these thank you so basically guys Dollar Shave Club if you're not familiar with it already is the fast easy way to get highquality shaving and bathroom supplies delivered to your door and it's funny because I actually had someone joking on Twitter about why Dollar Shave Club would sponsor this guy when they could sponsor someone with you know a manly awesome beard like Logan instead to which I have this to say over the last few days oh no my screen sharing is not working anymore all right I wanted to share my screen with you guys that on the network oh no but it could be yes okay I will do that so I'll share this on the network and then I will you guys should have seen him on Highlander he tried to be a Highlander yep I was like I he was Grizzly I was I was like yeah I'm going to do this so people are like he was lonus Grizzly yeah lus can't even grow a beard why does Dollar Shave Club you know sponsor this guy and the answer is because if they didn't then it's possible that you would have to deal with this oh he's hideous that is what I look like if I have about four days of of stubble it's disgusting it's horrible and thanks to Dollar Shave club's high quality razors that you can get delivered to you once a month so you can use a fresh razor for a nice clean and comfortable shave every single week you don't have to look at that isn't it awful everyone should sign up for Dollar Shave Club right now so that they never have to look at or like that that's the most compelling pitch that I can come up with also they have other great products their shave butter makes things more comfortable for you to you know take the hair off your face with also it goes on clear so you can see what you're doing and finally one wipe charlies's which I could do a live demonstration for you with but no I'm getting okay no one wants a live demonstration peppermint scented butt wipes for men I'm sure someone wants a live demon they just plain do a better job think about it this way baby wipes are they premoistened or are they dry they're pre they're premoistened they're pre moistened you're asking the wrong person adult toilet paper is it pre moistened or is it dry it's dry what's more effective to remove something a baby wipe or a piece of toilet paper there you go all right and our last one is Squarespace so this one is actually fun we're going to do our winner announcement from last week so we're going to search for # Linus Squarespace where I asked anyone who has used our offer code so that's offer code lonus over the last little while I asked for everyone to submit your own Squarespace sites and we were going to pick a winner at random so we're going to do that in a moment but first guys Squarespace is the easy fast affordable way to make a beautiful website it really truly is we use it for linusmediagroup tocom Luke's building his own website with it it's just plain better and easier to use than a lot of other options out there they have 247 tech support all their templates look really great and they've got different templates that are designed for all kinds of different uses whether you want a little site for your small business a store a Blog a portfolio it'll look great on the desktop on mobile on laptop everything in between maybe not on a watch although I should let the Squarespace guys know I want to see like like um you know circular web design Google Google Wear optimized Squarespace templates in the near future if they can offer that then they'll be the first to have the world's most pointless feature So Random now we can web browse like this what's that can't see seriously though Squarespace has features that matter like enabling you to just uh use their logo designer to create a cool logo for yourself it's actually really fast to use we did it live once and it took us like a couple minutes to make a cool logo and like preview it on a business card I wasn't quite done building my website because of e3 stuff and everything that came up when my trial ran up and I felt so bad cuz they like send you these emails they're like what could we have done better and I'm like nothing you were fine it was me I'm sorry there was nothing wrong with you I had to go on a trip and work I promise I'll finish my website oh that's the saddest thing ever all right so here is our featured Squarespace site oh I can't screens share with you go to URL there I'll go to the URL over here this is driving me but dendi is not ugly I don't know why that person even said that he was but so another really cool thing about Squarespace is that if you sign up for a full year at a time they will actually give you the first year of your domain purchase so that gets thrown in there just like that so check this out this is GoPro tips. squarespace.com you can actually tell if you've seen enough Squarespace sites that it was put

video tips figure out how we can make a like 24-hour GoPro recording thing yeah we were discussing that on Highlander how cool it would be if we could um do oh am I even oh crap I'm not screen sharing

you can see how the little dropdowns work you can go check out some video editing tips yeah we were talking during Highlander about how we could get a GoPro running for an entire year at a time or not an entire year for an entire day at a time and we figured you could probably do it with their proprietary interface if you could have a video feed to an external recorder and then you could have an external battery and then both ends of the of the connection would have to be waterproof and like damage proof you case for it so that the connector is like made into the case so that it's waterproof and stuff but if there's some way to do that even if it's not waterproof someone tell me because that's way too cool all right anyway so just one more time guys squarespace.com Linus for 10% off use offer code lonus and go check out that stream I'm going to go ahead and Link you guys to that again here in the video description it definitely is or in the video description in the twitch chat it definitely is worth the time and then finally our last sponsor today um Dollar Shave Club right so head over to dollarshaveclub.com and sign up now so that you don't look like a scary scary person should I make them look at it one more time sure oh my gosh look at him he's a hideous I wish I could zoom it in more we really should have taken that picture right when you got off the mountain CU we just all looked so messed up I know I don't think my eyes have ever looked that sunken before in my life I I I told you I went to the washroom and looked in the mirror when we got to that restaurant and was just like what I hardly recognized my own face me too like it was it was pretty horrible and uh thank goodness I have I have shaved now you know what's funny is uh that reminds me of something that I thought of at the beginning of the show to improve the show so I made you guys look at that but check this out I came up with this brilliant idea oh yeah check this out oh the W show now with 30% more handsome sure and he never needed a Cod host again see what I was trying to say is that he should at least try to find some way to delay that video there's got to be some way I would be surprised if you can do that I don't think so as long as we don't crash xsplit you're okay yeah I know we're good I don't want to mess with it anymore but if you could have one side that was delayed a little bit so it like looked at least slightly like there was two different movements that would be pretty cool I guess that would help a lot okay I'm I'm go ahead and get rid of that I'm sorry you guys I you have like Linus and then make the other one like that that weird inverted color thing so it's like lonus and Hulk lus I've put you guys through so much today all right the original poster for this one was diff dlf I don't know whatever um so forbes.com is the article that we're using to reference here and PS Now prices have been leaked someone told me to push you out of the way so it was double me oh for crying out loud it just keeps screwing up the screen I think what I have to do is just do this and then we can all look at forbes's and continue to the site thanks Forbes thanks for that dog all right PlayStation Now a good idea with a bad plan says the writer so pretty much uh we're looking at pricing anywhere from4 to 7 us to rent a game for a week you can rent for 4 hours 7 days 30 days or 90 days with some time periods unavailable for some games there are a couple of issues with the way that they're handling it though so pricing is a little bit questionable with 4our chunks of time coming in at around I think it's $3 to4 so you're paying near or about a dollar an hour to play the game um something that might be okay if you just want to try it before you buy um but I mean another factor is that these are mostly older games and I'm kind of sitting here going like I could probably find one in a used bin and pay like 15 bucks for it or 10 bucks or 20 bucks and own it forever someone in the chat said or just get the same price on a steam sale and that well remember this is this is PlayStation games so so this is like their yeah um and then it's up to about $30 for a 90day period and again with an older game you're looking at a situation where for 30 bucks you could probably just own it forever and get a disc um I think the biggest here is not the idea I I think the idea of of renting games digitally is still fine the the Forbes article right the the Forbes author criticizes this concept in general and says something like a subscription based service would be much better but I suspect Sony's Sony's hands are pretty much tied on that one I don't think they'd be able to do it well they yeah because right now they're leaving pricing up to the publisher and I think they'd have to and I think they would have to do that I mean it's much like Steam valve doesn't set the pricing for a third party title yeah so valve can't just come in and say okay we're going to have a steam subscription you pay 60 bucks a month and you can play any game on Steam because do that they'd have to set up like a Netflix like service which would be Insanity how do you how do you divvy up the funds according to what got watched um or maybe you do or maybe you don't I don't know it seems like it seems like we're asking for a lot and at least this is a step in the right direction in terms of digital distribution um it's just it's not quite there yet it's got to be cheaper older games in particular probably shouldn't be very expensive um one one issue I have with sort of paper use in general is that it's going to lead developers even more down that path where multiplayer is the only thing that matters because they're going to be optimizing for playtime yeah rather than necessarily compelling storytelling which is something that does have a value yeah like uh I know transistor isn't really the longest game ever but it ends when it should end like I feel like they if they added things to it and they made it longer it would have just been wasted time have you played much Bravely Default yet speaking of games that don't end when they should end no I haven't okay not much I played a little bit you're driving me crazy cuz I don't want to spoil the game for you cuz there are parts of it that are good but I haven't had any time yeah I know and then like on the plane back which when I was intending to play it I was just like no way that was happening I passed out so hard on the plane back from Highlander me too well we you be passed out on the floor in the airport yeah that's true before the plane we did do that thing all right so the op for the first Android and that is to say robot not Android the mobile operating system it's real confusing yeah I know right a newscaster this was posted by top war Gamer In The Forum and this stuff is scary man I'm going to go ahead and load up the YouTube video here here I apologize for this slightly less elegant than usual way of doing this um let's go ahead got the whole need to see your your taskbar well whatever man I don't care um so screen share with Linus we go ahead and maximize that so Japan unveils the world's first Android newscaster so he hands her a piece of paper um apparently the robot has perfect language skills and a sense of humor man that's creepy um this guy is slightly less creepy he's well he's done he's made like that's the guy that made the robot of himself that was actually even crazier than this there's certain times when it's like like this chick when she's sitting at certain points in time and when it pans past the other girl very specific points in time where it's very hard to tell other than that though the the movements you can still tell that one I think the other girl looks more realistic in my opinion yeah probably anyway she's uh she's reading some news about an earthquake um obviously a lot of this is programmed right now and they're not able to just kind of come up with things on their own but the objective is to keep improving this and uh yeah I guess uh the future is going to be an interesting time and place this brings up a conversation that I actually brought up when we were at the airport mm which is where everyone is using the automated terminals yep and I I noticed one of the big things that we got Flack for on the show not Flack but one of the big things that became a conversation when we've talked about automation on the show before is people have brought up that people need human inter action and I see that being disproven everywhere the amount of times that I see people voluntarily go through the self- automated checkout instead of the person driven checkout at stores is getting more and more and more and then now at airports it almost becomes frustrating to have to deal with people it's kind of annoying because it's like oh I have to deal with this person who's probably going to be a jerk when I could have maybe just gotten through the terminal with no problem the flip side of that is that on both our flight to Denver and our flight back the autal terminal systems ever that's the problem the automated terminal didn't pick up my reservation on the way there and then yours and Ed's reservations on the way back because it thought we already checked in which is really bad and we had to go talk to a person so they can make them better though but that's that's that's I I don't know about that whole required human interaction argument flip side okay so I'm going to get you to cover this one because um you're the VR yeah so this project was originally thought of by uh French googlers David CA and Damen Henry in part of their 20% thing which I thought was gone but is apparently still here so that's cool so the 20% thing is where 20% of your time at Google has to be spent doing kind of your own independent projects and then uh people thought this thing was so freaking cool that they jumped on and made sdks for it and it actually became a much bigger deal is this screen sharing yep so you basic you saw it if you click it again I think it goes back together if you scroll up more I think there's a way to make it go SL you keep scrolling out if you there we go there we go you manually scroll it it goes slower so you can see this is the package that people got at Google IO you can't just buy this I don't think so if you went to Google IO you got this package so you pull the tab thing and then it folds out all nicely but you can make this on your own uh if you have a laser cutter they actually have the file that you need for the laser cutter to able to read that file and then cut it for you or there's instructions on how to cut it with like a nice exacto knife or something like that and the magnet on the side with the like washer thing that's sitting there is actually a a Buton they can't see you but sure now they can there's a magnet on the side which I I actually wanted you to scroll to it not look at me but either way there's a magnet on the side which looks like it doesn't really have a use but if you're looking at something and you want to select it you just pull the magnet down which is actually really smart and it apparently works really well from the videos that I've seen which is really cool um they haven't tried it on a ton of phones yet fully compatible phones are Google Nexus 4 and five Motorola Moto X Samsung Galaxy S4 and5 and Samsung Galaxy Nexus partially compatible phones are HTC1 Motorola Moto G and Samsung Galaxy S3 that's really not a ton of phones um it's a but 180 Meg app and includes a bunch of stuff that you can do already so you can fly around on Google Earth uh you can go on a tour of Versa with a local guide you can watch YouTube videos on a massive screen so it's just using the lenses so that the lenses are one of the things you have to figure out how to Source they help you though so you use those lenses to make the screen appear much larger and further away than it is and and it is a custom YouTube app like if you're watching the video and you look over to the right there will be other video selections and you can use that thing on the side to select those videos like it's fairly interesting I don't know um I mean obviously this isn't going to take the place of something like Oculus like we were joking in the int it's not trying to though it's some things that'll be really interesting is stuff like street view stuff like Google Earth um the the Versa local guide wind windy day windy day will be really cool I've used I've used windy day on Moto X I don't know if you have um It's actually kind of fun even with just the Moto X being able to do it with a cardboard thing would be kind of awesome windy day is kind of a little interactive thing where you kind of look around with your screen and it's kind of like a little movie but but in VR you of inter you control the camera ESS so you follow this hat pretty much that's what happens but it's actually it's pretty cool PR neat yeah I'm definitely going to make one I don't have access to a laser cutter so I'm probably going to try to get a really sharp knife and do the best that I can I'm not going to Pizza Box it I'm actually going to try and Source like proper materials so I'll see how I can do there if you are interested in making one definitely go to Google's website which I believe is developers.google.com / cardboard because they actually have sourced everything for you already it's very possibly out of stock because a whole bunch of people have been buying them and if you look at one of them and then look at the um items frequently bought together they're all the other ones so they're pretty easy to find um but yeah it's they also help you Source it locally so they'll be like here's an Amazon or other website link to this product and also here's all of its specs if you want to try and find it somewhere else that you can buy it all right another news Intel has apparently asked AMD for access to mantle for an experiment so there's nothing that sounds super committal the original article here is from tweak town from Intel on this I mean basically yeah for an experiment um they have reaffirmed their position with direct X saying they are still committed to this open standard that um they think is going to continue to drive the industry forward and address the the previous issues with um API overhead and all the stuff that mantle was looking to try to help developers with but that isn't to say that Intel is completely dismissing it which I think is really interesting because as much as there's the whole AMD versus Nvidia Fanboy War something that a lot of people forget is that Intel actually has more market share for graphics then the two of the others combined and this has been true for years and years and years and years it's actually something that Darren our our expert from Intel brought up and so if intel were to stay committed to directex that could pretty much dictate the direction the industry goes and if intel were to get on board with mantle along with the 47 game developers that are signed up for the API then that could dictate the direction that the industry goes it's amazing how much power Intel has in very strange ways some um that the article also mentions is that Nvidia has only signed up krych and Ubisoft to its Game Works program however I think that that could be a little bit deceptive I don't think that AAA uh game makers are the ones who are going to mostly take advantage of a program like Gameworks I see that more as an indie play and I think we might see more come out of that in the next couple of years but um apparently AMD responded by asking Intel for a month or two until it's out of closed beta and um there we go an Intel spokesperson said at the time of initial mantle announcement we were already investigating rendering overhead based on game developer feedback Our Hope was to build consensus on potential approaches to reduce overhead with additional data we have publicly asked them to share the spec with us several times as part of examination of potential ways to improve apis and increase efficiencies so that doesn't really sound a whole lot like they're planning to use mantle or push towards mantle just want to mess with it it sounds more like they just want to dink around with it in the lab which is I don't know that's cool I get it maybe optimizations or something who knows uh the Moto 360 watch face competition is over this is actually the one I liked best even though I didn't end up voting one yeah yeah yeah yeah there there was a couple that I was like oo I would have absolutely no problem with that one this was definitely the one that I liked best yeah me too I mean as much as I don't prefer to read an analog face if I don't have to this looks really good yeah it does uh the one thing that does bother me is a lot of the space is taken up with telling me the time whereas I would like for a lot of the space to be taken up with reading my text message I have pretty good eyes it can and I like small fonts yes I know you can you can change it out to whatever you want but I wish that instead of just having an icon for Gmail there was more room on the main watch face to to to read messages like if we could put the time up here and then have message previews down here something person I don't mind that because I don't want it to be aggressive yep and I don't I don't hate this either I actually quite like well you said it was your favorite one I didn't think you hated it just like personally I I don't like reading things until I want to read them I end up marking things unread a lot because I'll accidentally click on something and just be like damn it I need to read this later I'm not ready for this right now so I don't mind it's kind of hiding in there for now this is funny because it kind of ties into one of our sponsors um where dollar oh right I keep forgetting that we're not doing the normal thing uh this ties into one of our sponsors pretty well because Dollar Shave club's whole thing is you know oh razors with vibrating handles and all these features that actually don't do anything we don't do any of that stuff um well this is oral be's new toothbrush that pairs to your phone via Bluetooth freaking genius so this is supposed to be by Nan and basically it gives you a bunch of information including things like how you can brush for better results and it can share your uh your brushing habits with your healthc Care Professionals something that I'm sure that my dentist would be like what if I told them about it I care and there's that one time that you leave it plugged in and on it's like he brushed for 3 days like what I'm sure there's a SA guard against that I'm sure you sure I'm pretty sure remember the zero voltage thing that happened no what is this that that certain that certain board that reports voltage of your CPU and it was like zero volts oh yeah right things that you would think it would just have you like sanity checks built-in sanity checks need to be a thing yeah because without them you can end up with some really funny software stuff um EV blog how however he pronounces that this this is yeah anyways this is actually pretty interesting uh posted a great video about how solar roadways are basically um grade A BS um did the math and pretty much at the end of the video the conclusion is they would consume more power than they produce they have proven absolutely nothing with respect to what they can handle in terms of weight and what they can handle in terms of traction um they are extremely expensive you can watch the video here on the Forum if you want the original poster here was jurr or something along those lines um I mean it's a great idea in theory they raised over $2 million through crowdfunding but it is pretty unlikely that this will see the light of day in this generation it's something that we talked about originally on the show and we kind of went okay yeah something a lot of people are saying in twitch chat and uh yeah we know is that there's actually been a lot of videos about this out for a long time this but this one was really good yeah well some of the other ones are pretty good too but yeah either way so I mean yeah so what we need then is just some kind of outlandish idea that sounds like really great to Eco Freaks and then we need like a really great campaign video and then freaking roadways well that wasn't their campaign video that's the funny thing about it no but that's what drove more yes it drove a lot of it so then we need like that we need to find that guy to make our our viral our viral video should be like solar trees they grow with sunlight you should fund us they also make oxygen wow you need that to live isn't that freaking awesome they look great in your yard and they live for hundreds of years they're seasonal W or they're not maybe not it's up to you Evergreen you have the choice man Evergreen can be a stretch goal and growing your own weed plant can be the next stretch goal stimulate economies if they make it legal oh it's funny cuz we were in Colorado yeah all right also posted by Twisted dictator on the Forum Witcher three to feature boob physics which is one of those things where it's like if Witcher 3 was the first game to include boob physics then this I guess good boob physics but apparently next power up thought it was new so my favorite thing is either either they jump around and they just sit there like solid bricks or they jump around and then they go like no one can see you right now but I think they should probably see that illustration of what you were talking about so I said I'm sorry how did you want the boobs to move again I didn't say I wanted them to move this way I said with bad boob physics they do move this way so either they jump around and they just sit there which is not realistic or they jump around and then like a while afterwards it's like oh that's not how they work either we've seen that in quite a few games and it gets super stupid after a while or like there'll be a slight movement like they'll just slightly get bumped and it's like oh they'll just sit there bouncing for a while it's like no you know the thing is if these real if these strategies didn't work game developers wouldn't do it so for all the people who get all upset about this kind of thing just if you didn't buy into it if you didn't make a bunch of noise about it it would go away I'm down for more realistic gameplay so if they if they make that realistic that's cool I think it should be and I'm all for equality so I think we should have like realistic testicle physics you know what if C you're playing rust if CD project red wanted to seem like you know very uh equality minded then they could they would definitely do that like if we had realistic junk swaying but then there isn't that many games other than like rust that you're actually going to see that yeah but they could well boobs are very exterior you're going to see them even if they're covered up okay the thing about the thing about the thing about breasts though is that game developers designed game around making sure that the breast physics are on display the whole time so they design the female characters out you want someone to design a game based around yeah having the junk physics there for the world to see why not so the camera angle is going to have to be like down all what or like you know how okay you know how Laura Croft like shamelessly provocatively stretches whenever you're not doing anything for so some dude's going to have to do like the unstick step it's going to have to have realistic physics or just like the you know the cry adjustment you know oh no okay oh wow swimming simulator 2014 yes all the banana hammocks we need the Nvidia to add that into their their their yeah Gameworks library for for like junk physics and all the viewers left no twitch breaks every I know twitch breaks I'm just kidding oh man oh people on the twitch chat are like stop please and it's funny because your timing is excellent I think we're pretty much done here are there any other topics in the dock you really wanted to hit uh we didn't talk about Highlander at all but I guess we have all the videos coming so it's not yeah Highlander videos will be coming you're going to see videos from Austin you're going to see videos from us oh okay this is kind of a big deal Microsoft is offering this was originally posted by good bites on the Forum Microsoft is offering up to $650 off a Surface Pro 3 if you exchange a MacBook Air at a Microsoft Store it does have to be working but quite frankly I would take the MacBook Air over the surface at this point which isn't to say I would buy a Macbook but you bought a service I did but I'm going to sell it for yeah not for MacBook yeah not for a Macbook I'm going to keep using my XPS 12 whoops because to me this with the okay so here oops that's basically how it works but okay so you get a little bit of not much more thinness and it is lighter and it is smaller like it's significantly lighter than the XPS 12 is it enough that it matters though like no it's it's enough it's it's something okay so you get you get more thinness so there's that I mean I'm not making the point here about the thinness it really is thinner you didn't make much of a point about thinness or weight because there's not much weight difference between there is a significant weight difference um but the problem for me is that Windows 8 is not a good tablet experience it's actually nothing to do with the hardware the hardware the hardware is very beautiful um pick it up more and then yeah junk physics not that I'm calling the surface junk um the the problem is just there's not enough USB ports two USB ports is minimum to call it like a reasonably functional PC we get one um it does have mini display port out which is nice compared to other tablets there's no SD card reader to my knowledge although they might have hidden one under there no they didn't so there's no SD card reader or anything like that it is very beautiful the kickstand is a lot better than the first gen which is the last time I tried one it comes all the way out here so that gives you a lot of different different options like you can sit on a plane and you can uh like lean it up against the seat in front of you the magnetic lock for the keyboard is pretty robust which is cool so you can kind of like lean it up against something in bed or you can put it down here and you can rest it on your knee and you can legitimately use it and all that stuff is great but the question I have to ask myself is why would I ever use it without the keyboard and then if I'm never going to use it without the keyboard then why wouldn't I just want my keyboard occasionally attached once in a while I do use Windows 8 as a tablet sorry yeah permanently attached like this once in a while I do use Windows 8 as a tablet when that happens this may be bulkier but it's good enough because I'm not going to do it very often and that's going to be basically the conclusion of my Surface review um apparently Wendell has an SD card reader maybe I didn't find it I'm not done my review yet like I'm not actually filming this until next week so I haven't basically the way that I usually do my reviews is um it's under the hinge it's under the hinge apparently that's a really weird oh that seems pretty sensible under the hinge eh I don't I don't oh maybe that's the micro SD slot right there there you go why would you put micro SD on it really oh oh headache anyway um oh not helpful when I'm offloading footage on a video set or something like that um oh anyway where was I going with this right so the way I typically do a review is I figure out as much as I can on my own without really looking at any other media coverage of it then I go back and I look at sort of the launch press release and all that stuff to make sure that I'm not missing anything critical so I would have figured the SD card out I'm still not particularly pleased with it and I'm still not going to switch from a convertible like this because it just doesn't make any sense to me I use it as a tablet so rarely that I might as well have something that here this is this is the ultimate example of why I'm not going to use this because I can use it in my lap sort of but why have this which if I go to you know oh pick it up and it falls apart why have that when I can just have this which is weighted correctly to not fall off the back of me I can pick it up however I want I can turn it around I can use it like this it's just a lot more flexible it's a lot more practical and it's cheaper so at the same price I would take the XPS 12 at a lower price I would definitely take the xps2 um I don't know that there are many other convertibles that I like better than the xps2 though Sony's is terrible like just tragic um I I don't have a ton of experience with different convertibles I like that one a lot though the yoga is excellent I when we had the yoga at at the ncx office I liked it a lot oh people are bringing up the pen for the surface as someone who doesn't use a pen um I'm not a big fan um people who are talking about note taking with a pen yeah I I get that um however show them the thing which thing oh the fact that the only way to take a screenshot is with the pen oh no I meant like like oh right so my issue with the pen is that it doesn't stash in the device and the Geniuses at Microsoft I'm sure they're very smart legitimately but this is how you're supposed to attach the pen to the surface there's a little magnet where the uh where the the the charging port is that you're supposed to attach the pen to it just comes off and then and then if you get a type cover the the Innovative solution there is you stick a sticker on it don't worry any word oh okay you stick a sticker to it and then you put the pen through the loop on the sticker and I'm just like really you guys engineered a fraction of a scent solution to a problem that actually matters that's what you did just there I yeah like I the reason why I like how the 2DS is made is it's super easy to get the pen because that's where they put the colored strap along the back it's not even a strap like the colored piece of plastic is where the pen goes super easy to grab it super easy to put it back I get that it's thin and that's great but I'm sorry I just I'm not keeping it I was going to keep it if it was if it was fantastic the keyboard though is not nearly as bad as people are making it out to be I actually quite like the type cover keyboard it's surprisingly good so there's that all right I think we're done here guys thank you for watching The W show if you're tuning in late the archive will be up on the YouTube sometime in the next little while or up on Twitch immediately for those of you we had someone complaining on the uh on the Forum about how the archive goes up really late and it's just like it's up right away on Twitch and they're just like I don't want to watch on Twitch I'm like okay it's kind of like when people message me on Facebook um hey uh I noticed on your Facebook it says not to message you on Facebook and to message you on Twitter but um I don't have Twitter so I'm messaging you here I'm just like Twitter's free man sorry there's a reason that I only accept messages on Twitter and here I will screen share with you guys I will show you why I only accept messages on Twitter I'm going to go on Facebook right now and I'm share with you guys you're not screen sharing right now right nope okay cool not yet okay so I'mma I'mma go on my I'mma go on my lonus tech Twitter Facebook Malian okay here we go Twitter my Facebook mation so here's my screen here is why I will never reply to Facebook messages because when I click on them and I write a reply hello sorry I don't reply to Facebook messages press enter to send actually it's a lot faster now okay well they they're doing better it used to be really really slow to load messages that slow it's better now that was still pretty slow no that's pretty fast okay it used to be really slow now I don't have an excuse but still RDM RTM well there's there's there's there's methodology now you don't want to answer there you want to answer someone else yes and the thing about Twitter too is I get a lot of people tweeting me saying hey I want to ask you a question that's longer than 140 characters um how do I do that and the answer is you don't because I get too many messages um the best thing to do if you have a tech question is to post on the lineus tech tips Forum it's like really good it is that's a good place to go and ask questions because if you don't get the right answer the first time um someone else will post the right answer at some point so someone do that and then Tweet back to me saying that no one answered them they tweeted I checked times on things they tweeted me like 3 minutes after they had posted their thing I checked it like 30 minutes afterwards and by the time I checked it there was a page and a half of comments nice I was like we should probably end the show at some point here but I could I could gr tweets forever I have I am doing Afterparty tonight and I am doing my 24-hour charity stream that I talked about this weekend I don't know exactly when it'll start but it's happening you're crazy Child's Play Man Child's Play is cool all right peace out guys bye everyone oh dang it that wasn't should we be box I can't be box I'm terrible see that's not percussion yeah it's not really beat boxing either that's maybe true I think we should have a junk physics shirt oh my God what would be the logo though I think you know what the logo would be but then we couldn't sell whatand like way better we're going to have polls live polls so that you and me can set up the polls on our own website then there will be a history of the poll and we can try I don't want to know the history of any po if someone is watching the live stream they'll be able to see the pole you know how we have straw poles so instead if they're watching an archive if they watch the archive on our site they should be able to see the pool the history of the pool groy all of the history we're live now as if it was never erased or cleaned the whole history of the poll the pole should be cleaned at some point or Another We're just discussing an upcoming website feature welcome to the vanan show thank you guys very much for tuning in my laptop screen just wow it just completely crapped itself I wish I was screen sharing with you guys I opened up a Google doc and like my desktop icons like flashed through it for a couple seconds and they gone computers man computers man welcome to the show um so let's kick things right off let's let's let's make things easy for ourselves we've got a bunch of great topics for you today first up is Google cardboard you can use an ordinary cardboard box and a smartphone to make your own virtual reality headset okay it might not be quite as sophisticated as the Oculus Rift but more or or as easy as what I just did just there a little bit more complicated than that but it should make for an easy lowcost way to make that happen next up we've got Ubisoft just keeps on digging it's almost like this week they were trying to find something popular to say so that we don't like DRM we're going to do things yeah we're which don't include getting rid of DRM what else we got we also have YouTube tip jar so you'll be able to tip up to something talk about that later to YouTube creators while watching their videos and twitch and YouTube are both going to be playing at 60 FPS now wowps to u u i can watch PewDiePie yell with that much more clarity now tweet tube tweet tube all right intro time we are moving the microphone down Probably sounds horri ah it's not that bad I've got it in my ears all right we have a few sponsors for you this week uh earlier this week we actually did a sponsored live stream we call these ask the expert and we're going to talk to you guys about what we did discussed with Darren Lynch from Intel as well as give you guys the exclusive link to watch the archived live stream so I hope you enjoy that next up we've got Squarespace and that's not the one that I meant to do wow back to this and oh now everything is bricked and terrible okay Squarespace 10% off with offer code lineus also we are going to announce the winner of a free oneyear Squarespace subscription and finally we we've got Dollar Shave Club shave time shave money join the club visit Dollar Shave Club in order to get highquality bathroom supplies shipped straight to you your door and that is it for my oh yeah and it's not very expensive hence the dollar I mean it doesn't cost a well it can cost a dollar but it doesn't cost a dollar for like the really good stuff but it's still a lot cheaper than the other thing so I think I've gotten my point across now and yes the intro was playing and the music was broken I actually kind of liked talking over the music we should have music in the background so um next week we'll get like a music track but for this week can you just kind of beatbox while I do the show all right so our first topic this week is going to be the uh well if I had my topics open I'd be able to do that YouTube now runs at 60 FPS they actually announced a really bunch of the best part is I'm a horrible beatboxer I can't do anything I have no abilities whatsoever but if we actually had an actual beatboxer that could have been maybe cool I don't know no probably not I have about the beatboxing skills of like that random six-year-old kid on the playground who thinks he's a plane that's that's about it or that kid that used to run around the track while making motorcycle noises the sophisticated kids put the playing cards in the spoke so there you go yeah I did that when I was like 12 I think I did as well actually yeah I think I should have been younger than 12 when I was doing that all right so this was originally posted on the Forum by RT YouTube now supports the 60fps I actually retweeted this tweet last night because I was pretty stoked on this news but there you go so what they say is motion intense videos will look even better on YouTube when we launch support for 48 and 60 FPS yes so bring on the Hobbit piracy since that's the only thing that comes to mind that 48 frames per second no but seriously though higher frame rates are better for many things I know you guys are probably expecting me to say well now every single video on YouTube should run at 60 FPS but that's not necessarily the case game play will definitely benefit from this um things like running around with a the camcorder probably not so much the main benefit the reason that we shoot all of our Channel super fun stuff for example in 60fps is the ability to slow it down to half speed and still play at 30 FPS which to the eye with appropriate motion blur does still look very fluid the problem with games is that the eye and graphics cards they well they don't inherently have motion blur they don't actually um help you put the pieces together of each of these frames the way that something like a film does so 60 FPS exciting one little trick you have to turn it up to 1080p in order to enable 60 FPS also if you're in Firefox you might not be able to see it automatically so if you go download all HTML 5 or some other HTML 5 add-on which can switch YouTube to HTML 5 by forcing it um then you'll be good to go I am so over Firefox at this point between it logging me out of the Forum all the time and just flat out not working very well and crashing a lot over the last little while I think uh We've pretty much broken up so Firefox is now my tertiary browser whoa yeah what's your second at home I am I'm actually using Chrome IE Firefox why not like opera or something Opera doesn't work with anything yeah it does no no I use I use on Chrome Okay Google straight up doesn't support Opera and Google doesn't support Opera no they they say blah blah blah blah blah sometimes when you log into stuff they'll be like uh yeah this feature works on Firefox and chrome and then half the time it doesn't work on Firefox and the other half of the time it doesn't work on Chrome so I have a feeling within the next few years Google is going to try to basically eradicate everything except for Chrome because I I honestly think a lot of the issues that are coming in are based around Google just being like NOP no no we're doing all this it seems to be mostly flash related for Firefox for me yeah and I mean it's not like Adobe and googler In Cahoots so I think it's gota I gotta just blame the Mozilla team for this I don't know but if the flash thing's your problem just download the HTML 5 add-on and you're good to go yeah even then not everything runs on HTML 5 sometimes flash things exist and then my browser crashes and then and this is this is something that I have an issue with with both Firefox and chrome is it seems like about 30% of the time the restore last browsing session feature just doesn't work I have literally never had a problem with that with fire I had it happened last night last very night last night was my last night did you have multiple windows open of course I did I always do you know what my computer looks like because some of because I need to be able to alt tab between certain sets of tabs very quickly so for example see like he's complaining about his Ram he has to upgrade his Ram doesn't do anything other than web browse ofing his Brown I have to upgrade my desktop my brother's taking like five gigs of RAM oh yeah I know I I'm having troubl defending Firefox lately I hope they pick it up because I don't know I feel a lot more safer on Firefox than I do on Chrome yeah well there you go um all right so cat oh this is something really cool that also came out of the uh VidCon event recently they are adding caption crowd sources so every single video will just say butts butts butts butts butts on the bottom well probably the first thing I thought of when I read that was like okay every single video that's going to attract like a certain crowd is just going to have like buts yeah there's going to be a lot of potential for this to be griefed I have to think though that once the initial sort of spam dies down it'll probably start to it'll probably settle in I think videos like ours will probably do reasonably well by comparison and the way that I see except for this one which will probably just have butts butts butts on it yeah someone will go and hide it like 34 of the way through where no one's going to be looking at the captions I mean especially in English it's probably going to be more a matter of going through and fixing the mistakes of the automatic one yeah um so I mean I'm sure YouTube will be able to tell cuz in much the same way that they can take the audio track and they can caption it I'm sure they can take the captioning and somewhat validate it so figure out if it's like that far off yes okay that's what I expect to happen although this is all just me guessing these features are not out yet that makes sense though and if they're not doing that now they probably should and they'll probably think of that or figure that out at some point in time maybe P 10% um so I find a lot of the news that just happened um in in this one segment are all like PewDiePie because it's YouTube 60fps and tip jar so if he's having problem well he's he's like doing okay for doing okay but game streamers in general aren't probably going to make as much money on their ads so tip jars are going to help game streamers a lot and 60fps is going to help game streamers a lot so I find it actually kind of surprising that both these things are landing when traditionally they didn't really seem to care about game streamers it's it's actually kind of refreshing to see YouTube Bend to the will of the community for a change instead of just marching off in a direction and doing whatever the heck it is that they want go plus integration and screw you just expecting everyone to sort of fall in line I mean we want you know higher quality content and we want this and we want that it's like guys that's great but people are not watching that they're watching PewDiePie do whatever it is speaking of PewDiePie I actually was this close to retweeting one of his tweets for the first time ever I do follow him on Twitter and I agreed with this so hard and I was just like Google what are you doing twitch play Pokemon is in our chat again oh L that's so cool I saw him in last week too I was like what the hell all right so I'm going to screen share with you guys for a second here check this out so in the old days I would click on my name and I would go to video manager you can see that that's still working on this page for some reason it must be a really old one they changed it today yeah there we go so my name is now gone this is great I can show the before and after my name is now gone now I get to click on this I get to click on Creator Studio wait around for that to load it slow ass and then I get to go way over here and click on video manager in order to manage my videos which is where I spend 99% of my time when I am logged into my YouTube channel um YouTube seems to be trying to pay attention to the needs of creators they're finally giving us a dedicated YouTube creator app which will allow us to manage things that's actually pretty cool that's pretty cool although honestly there's not that much more that I needed to do they could have just fixed you know broken like outright broken stuff like here's a couple of examples um when you're loading comments it just stops working after a while and then you can't restore it other than by reloading the page and then scrolling back to that point again you can't see the most recent comments first and then the other one that was just broken as all heck is when I would try to reply to a comment I think it is and then go back it would reload the comments and I'd have to start over again at the top it's like you wonder why YouTubers aren't interacting with their audiences much you're making it as difficult as possible for us oh my God it's it's it's the the comment system as a whole is ridiculous I I watched a video the other day that was uploaded that day this was like a day or two ago but for some reason it had the old comment system yeah and it was so refreshing it's so much better I'm going to be honest with you I couldn't tell the difference really yeah I had there was a video recently it was a funk commercial that we did and I was reading through the comments and everyone was freaking out about how it was the old comments and I actually couldn't remember the difference between them anymore the reply buttons there on everything um and honestly it looked cleaner it's mostly mostly there are reply buttons on everything now like people have basically just kind of accepted it you know I don't know Dro TR and I still have a problem I'll read through the comments and someone will ask a question directed at me and I try to reply and I'm like this is not possible that still happens to this day my favorite is that well and but there are issues with the old comment system that I think people forget in the old comment system someone could have contact lock on and there would still be a reply button so you'd click reply you'd type up a nice long reply to them you'd click it it would go away and it would tell you this person has contact lock on they did not receive your message actually never ran into that that's a lot worse that's like a hundred times worse at least I don't have to waste my time trying to reply to people who ask me questions that don't have a reply button on their comments I can see up front haha I don't have to talk to you because you didn't do the thing yeah yeah so at least there's that I don't know I think I ran Twitch Plays Pokemon off because the the chat freaked out way to go smart guy we actually we had someone cool in our chat for the first time ever I mean the rest of you are cool too but like someone like crazy famous on Twitch cool well when when my brother and I were streaming we had Day N come in and say hi yeah I think myself or my brother I don't remember which one was wearing a day n shirt and after his stream ended he went to the homepage and saw us homepage and he was like what that's why he came into the chat and was like hello oh he's still here still here y anyways all right so our you know it's funny cuz my issue on Firefox is that the Forum keeps signing my me out my issue in Chrome is it keeps signing me back in when I sign out stop it like no you must have your proper account for this listen to me all right so this was originally posted by Twisted dictator on the Forum and this is Ubisoft the original article from Gamespot this is Ubisoft coming out and saying well DRM can't stop piracy actually this article is fantastic it's so ridiculous full of all the win okay so VP of digital publishing from Ubisoft says I don't want us in a position where we're punishing a paying player for what a pirate can get around so where you are right now that position that you're like very deeply rooted in you don't want to be there okay so Witcher developer CD project red uh thinks that DRM is an ineffective way to stop piracy on the PC them I actually believe because they've been reasonably friendly in the past however Ubisoft is just like what popular thing can we say that Gamers will like so that they will stop hating us as hard as we deserve deserve to be hated right now and so that oh this is great so what's key for us is making sure we're delivering an experience to paying players that is quality so the question becomes what do we create as services or as benefits and the quality of the game that will just have people want to pay for it and I'm just kind of sitting here going blah blah blah so okay the more services there the reality it is the more services there are in a game well Pirates don't get that stuff so when it's a good game and there's good services around it you're incentivized to not pirate the game to get the full experience this is all true it's just that Ubisoft it's not like they actually said well here's an upcoming game that we're going to go you know uh steam DRM only or we're going to go zero actionable items yeah there there's nothing there's not a Microsoft might as well you know uh publish an open letter about how they're committed to PC Gamers for all the emptiness of this statement that has nothing to do with anything oh my God I mean it's not like I agree with the Pirates I mean this is this is this is interesting um there was a claim uh that Bethesda recently released Wolfenstein the New Order was pirated over a 100,000 times in the first week and obviously you can't say oh well then they lost whatever 60 times 100 so what 60 mill6 million do in Revenue whatever that works out too um lost $6 Million worth of Revenue because of pirates you can't really do the math that way but you can't do the math that way at all we have to agree that it is a problem and I don't agree with the typical you know quite frankly stupid argument that you know uh piracy doesn't hurt cuz it's you know basically like if if they deserved my money you know after I if I played it okay here this guy this guy basically made me pretty mad uh Russ takeout okay uh yeah yeah yeah yeah yeah so this guy is like well people buy good or great games the problem is when you have a game with a 5H hour single player and lousy multiplayer how do you justify 60 bucks for it piracy helps the individual to test the game I downloaded 10 to 20 games this year and purchased the 3 to four that let me play for at least a few weeks and I'm kind of sitting here going well no because if you want to have the experience you should pay for it if the experience wasn't good enough to have then you don't have to buy it and not every game cost $60 wait like 3 weeks and it'll probably be 30 transistor like just came out it's already 25% off on Steam Sale exactly so if you don't think something is worth the cost 100% then just wait a little while and if you're not willing to wait well then I'm sorry I guess you get to pay and you can't just say oh well if something can't be reused 100 times then it's not worth buying I mean by that logic do you refuse to buy condoms or food it's basically the same thing it seriously is no I know I was just trying something that isn't reusable over and over again dogs try to make food reusable dogs oh that's gross you know my old Pony when I was a kid oh no she would basically like if we if we imagine that this is the pony the crap would come out this end he would turn himself 180° no yep you know how that story I I don't know like especially with how Steam Works nowadays we were talking about the Steam Sale uh last time on the show about how it's just like yeah all this stuff has pretty much been on sale for these prices already like not a ton of them were super amazing that's that's because everything gets discounted so hard just wait like three days I fear for twitch chat what you can't reuse condoms twitch chat twitch chat that I mean I guess theoretically you could it's but the effectiveness well I mean it already has a pretty scary Effectiveness 99% is not that good that's true that's still one out of 100 times the funny horri the funny thing about the 99% Effectiveness is that I'm not 100% sure how you calculate that is it 99% of the time you have sex you won't cause a pregnancy or is it 99% of the times that you would have caused a pregnancy it doesn't because it's hard to because I mean if it's 99% of the time there won't be a pregnancy it's not even helping as much as we think because about 60% of the time to 70% of the time the the fertility is not an issue anyway and nothing would have happened so H that's that is actually kind of interesting either way it's still scary I feel like we've gotten off topic a little bit we have a little bit maybe a lot of bit let's talk about Android TV we aren't even necessarily done with the previous topic oh okay what do you have something to say cuz I can just take a drink go for it um I I found it interesting that the main thing that he was saying was uh services and benefits they want to add on to games if you've been noticing something they've been doing for a long time now is these these multiplayer aspects that they've been adding to games I don't know how many times you've talked to someone about that super awesome enthralling Assassin's Creed multiplayer that you played with no one because no one really does that um or the awesome strapped on stapled together multiplayer that's in Watchdogs I think they need to they're talking about this quality of the game in quality services and benefits but a lot of their quality services and benefits don't really seem thought out it seems like they built the entire game and then we're like oh yeah we need these things that pirates don't get so we're going to make this weird really really bad ship mini game in Assassin's Creed that this is the only way you can get certain items and then we're going to put it in your ship and everyone's going to hate it so cool like I don't make good ones make interesting ways to work with your friends and I know they're working on it like uh Far Cry 4 and Assassin's Creed Unity have these Co-op things where someone can enter your game and then help you do like an open world thing but they can't help you with storyline missions and stuff and then I don't really that seems weird again so I don't know maybe work on that a little bit and then people might care but for now they're probably just going to Pirate your game I won't but they probably will and I I think it's funny that they brought they're bringing all this to light right now yeah I know right because then everyone's going oh yeah I can just pirate all your stuff did you see how many comments there were about that they're like oh yeah I was waiting for Watch Dogs and then now I'm just going to Pirate it it's like wow why did you wow not good timing I wonder if piracy rates would go down if they just stopped talking about shut up there's an interesting they need to shut up put their heads down and work on stuff and make really good releases for Assassin's Creed and Far Cry what's the upcoming Assassin's Creed Unity Unity yeah okay French Revolution sure sure that could be good it could who knows hopefully they'll make the PC version look exactly the same as the console version oh there was other there was another Ubisoft thing they were saying you know why it's challenging to have the PC version come out at the same time is the console version and something blah blah blah does your hups in your company make them look the same yeah anyway here we go uh Android TV so it looks like Google uh Google IO they actually had a bunch of stuff they were talking about they showed off the upcoming Android L whatever it's going to be licorice lollipop ludicrous ludic keeping with our Rap Theme um I hope Asus wants to do laptop Integrations again with with the new one ends with JK oh and I will just never stop all the terrible jokes no I don't want to talk about that anyway um it weighs a lot JK it's light so they showed off a bunch of really cool stuff they showed off some really Pointless Stuff they're moving to a more circular sort of design language now which to me is kind of like oh that's great I'll put that on my circular phone that I don't have I guess if if they want if they want Android phones to stop looking like iPhones so all these lawsuits can just go away it's like discus things yeah this is this is the Samsung Galaxy Milky Way and it's like it's like this shape that would be amazing with like a sphere it with like a curv screen see that curv screen sphere in the middle like and that comes out the back you know the the LG like you know orb Flex the or it doubles as a discus throw it to your friend and the built-in accelerometer speakers the built-in accelerometer will tell you how fast it FW and when and when your friend doesn't catch it it'll say uhoh Well it falls and you'll be able to hear it because it has a speaker the size of the entire back yeah all these smart features the Samsung sh no wrong the speaker should not be the size of the back I've been working on my LG G3 review as well as my Surface 3 Pro review and they both have rearm mounted speakers which is still wrong in this day and age what if it's a discus thing still wrong still wrong and I still hate it so you want like a bezel around the front of the disc for a circular speaker there yeah a bezel disc now with 30% more bezel new and improved oh no oh not this again coming soon Android TV now with 30% more TV Honestly though that might be applicable this whole Android TV thing I'm kind of sitting here going like how many times are you guys going to relaunch the same thing it's like we really really really want Android to run on your TV the old you know little USB sticks or HDMI sticks those aren't good enough anymore chomecast isn't good enough anymore uh Standalone boxes like the posos player or that a thing what was it called I don't remember something box I don't know I didn't care then all these all these Google operating system things no we're doing much better now we're just doing regular Android this time but with a different skin over top so it's XBMC but like Android or something and there's a world of content in games there's actually not too much detail about it right now but you can get Batman Begins Man of Steel The Lego Movie and The Hobbit desolation of smog if you want wanted to watch one good movie and uh one really good movie and two slightly less than good movies Oscar nominated there's going to be so much infighting on what movies you're talking about they're adding voice control which I guess is interesting if you didn't already have a chomecast and an Android phone and this functionality seems like it could have just as easily happened that way the one place where I see this really being valuable is in terms of more power hungry type of applications so Nvidia actually on their own blog is talking about this as well they are saying they want the K1 so that's their upcoming chip of course they do they want the K1 to be the first validated chip for Android TV which could be interesting because we'd be looking at both a powerful local gaming experience as well as a streaming experience with you know Netflix and all that other stuff and um having the ability to stream from the cloud or view things things and Playback things and game locally it seems like I guess it'll be somewhat valuable I just I don't see it as that different from so many other things that are out there I mean you look at something like Ouya I mean is this really different from Ouya with a skin on it is it is it skins a lot though skins user experience what do you complain about a lot with phones yes okay the skin is important I'm just saying did we need a dedicated I like my CH casts I see no real reason to change for my chomecast right well chomecast latency isn't anything special so there's that if you wanted to game on your big screen I'm not going to play Android games on my big screen no you aren't but this is NVIDIA we're talking about so if we could see integration with their gam stream technology like the way I'd like to see Nvidia go Shield right right um but what you don't have a way to do right now is get a low latency HDMI connection from your Shield to your TV okay so if that could be integrated you could have a wireless controller or you could use your Shield as a wireless controller like the way I see Nvidia going with this to make it really successful is have there be an experience just for having an Nvidia chip in the device so they enable game stream as long as there's an Nvidia chip in your device then if you have a shield then you enable second screen type things like what Nintendo's trying to do with Wii U or with the ability to use your Shield as a controller and then switch screens when you run away just like Nintendo's trying to do with the Wii U but hopefully better than the Wii U like a lot of the stuff they do with the Wii U is pretty stupid Mario Kart 8 has sold 2 million copies which is unfreaking real not to mention how many Wii U they're selling now I think they're on track to sell more than PS4 and Xbox I if if that's still trending that was trending like that before we left for Highlander so I'm not entirely sure anymore freaking badass but what I do have to say about Mario Kart 8 and the Wii U is that the second screen is not very useful there yeah yeah it's dumb you can make it a mini map but then like it's in your hands it's in your hands I don't anyone who looks away from the screen for more than a split second in Mario Kart is like red shelled up the ass so like no I don't know but then I don't mind that controller for it either because if you try to use the motion controls for it it's a lot better than weote controll anyway get it yeah the second screen does work for that game but I don't think they need the second screen to be amazing for every single game yeah that's true um so there's a couple more things for Android TV it's so blah blah blah clean interface allows multiplayer gaming with people on Android tablets when was the last time you played a multiplayer game over Android this one of the really big problems with Android gaming is there're like here's a new platform that you can can take these games which are not made for this platform and play them on and it's like no I don't want to do that yeah I mean no wants to do that it's the same issue that PC Gamers have nobody makes good co-op games for Android it's like what like what and yeah okay okay twitch chat you're going to have like four examples I don't care it's not really my point my point is that it's not a focus Android games are focused on this experience PC PC gaming Co-op is starting to come back a little bit not enough not enough not enough I'll tell you what when Microsoft releases re-releases that Halo package for the PC and it includes Halo 1 campaign co-op oh God then a you won't see me on W show because I'll be too busy playing Halo campaign co-op and B I will believe that something's changing my dad and I went through and beat that campaign on every possible difficulty not because we couldn't beat it on legendary yet just just because we were bored like I think we literally I think we beat on legendary and then like went back and beat on the other ones cuz remember you'd get the different Shields at the bottom of the level selector so we got all of them cuz we were just like this is cool cuz why not and it was a really good game to co-op the last M ah whatever everyone's like try try try yeah it's like one game smartass and we both love it and we have a video review and we finished it and I played it with my wife and that was great and she was like oh that was fun we haven't played games together in a long time and I was like yeah that was fun that was great um and she was like yeah what other games can we play I'm like none Portal 2 for like the not as good as the single player co-op that it has actually the only game that we found to uh to play together recently is this one it's actually a fantastic game and everyone should play it it's uh it's free for the basic version and if it ever manages to launch then I'd love to show it to you guys but in the meantime do you want to bring up girl in the chat said Android TV equals every Smart TV ever except probably a lot better A lot better Smart TVs are dumb and they're just terrible they suck just made of so much terrible and oh man that's another thing that's been driving me crazy about how to address it with the uh with the LG G3 so the G3 has one of the most terrifying end user license agreements that I've ever seen and just with the recent thing that came out about their Smart TVs and how if you don't agree to it they just downgrade you to a dumb TV it made me really uncomfortable to have like five checkboxes to tick off including all this stuff about personal information sharing just to use my phone this is why PE more than one person asked me on Twitter if I would recommend getting a G3 because of how much I like the G2 this was before I even saw the G3 so it wasn't really fair but either way I said no because of the TV thing it's your phone there's going to be way more personal stuff on your phone than your TV and they're being really Ultra creepy about it yeah so I don't know man not a big fan fan unfortunately this game isn't launching but it's called it's called Pocket Tanks and it's badass so you can they actually have um either Hot Seat multiplayer or you can actually do uh land multiplayer cool so my wife and I will sit in bed with our laptops and like fire little rockets at each other with our tanks and stuff she's pretty good at it tanks she's been kicking my ass lately is it like old school tanks but like new and improved it's not that new we've been playing it since we met we met 9 years ago so okay there you go not new not new at Alla okay I'm old and the things I do are old along the lines of Android TV this is interesting uh razor throwing Oh Come onello technical difficulties thanks for that l awesome beatboxing that wasn't beatboxing even is it just like making noises no is what making noises is just making noises because I saw a beatboxing guy who was like doing other random stuff oh form of vocal P percussion yeah that's not percussion I'm sorry yeah I guess you're closer but I still don't like it um well this is unfortunate okay you might be on screen sharing Duty for the rest of the show here oh okay what am i showing let's see if the issue is um my output or if the issue is the what am i showing capture um you're showing razer's gaming micro console featuring Android TV available this fall uh this was posted originally on the form by dietr W and it looks like that screen sharing is not working anyway I'm afraid like I just I fear for what might happen if I try to uh if I try to properly screen share with you guys because what I'm going to have to do is I'm going to have to refresh my capture card which will about nine times out of 10 um blue screen the computer blue screen the computer is this not working for so I'm going to find another way to share with you guys here we go we'll just do it this way this is no no it didn't work I tried it already it's it's all good try try it now sure okay yeah that didn't work okay so there we go um moving on I tried uh the micro console all right so this was the original article is on end Gadget I'm just going to sorry guys I got to do this kind of manually here this is going to be kind of ghetto so add uh screen region and there we go hey that is beatboxing according to you all right razer's micro console a gaming micro console with Android TV available this fall it should be noted that this is just a render and this is not the finalized Hardware although they haven't exactly gone out on a Lim in terms of showing us something that's difficult to manufacture it's razor so it's probably going to look something like that there's green underlow it's black and there's a logo on the top uh matte black specifically okay okay okay all right okay it's matte black also the logo is shiny the logo is gloss so I get such a kick out of the out of the press statement the micro console can stream movies music and other apps for large screen entertainment with an emphasis on gaming so it's go hardcore gaming so it's Google Android TV and it's got an Nvidia chip inside it and um probably it'll have game stream good job Razer so I think we just completely predicted exactly everything about this product I think that's how they're going to handle the hardcore gaming though and I'm really excited about that I think it makes as much sense as Steam OS um just in home streaming whether it's through valve's solution or nvidia's solution is definitely the future in my mind and uh one thing I'm interested in is how much Steam OS might slow down Windows piracy might not at all no okay tell me this uh Libra office do you still use it uh I didn't use Libra office open Office it's the same thing oh actually I do never mind I do use Libra office and yes I still do use do you use it if you have a choice Yes actually oh all right um but in certain situations I use it on my test bench when viewing test results because it can there's an option that it can give you a preview window okay do you use it when you have serious work to do that's serious work to do that's why like you know what I mean and you're dodging the question over and over again I might add no but we have legit copies of office that's true right so okay but office office using Office 365 now honestly for the price it's a great value subscription base I'm kind of sold on when I was in school and stuff I just used open Office yeah but in school you got free copies of office no I mean like not not that school oh okay right other school yeah not like piracy school no I'm just kidding through through his program at school he was able to get copies of mic CU I was in a software development thing so you get the yeah MERS allian Raz thing is named so far um interface will be managed by Android TV expected this fall um this is kind of funny ex Orbot from The Forum had a really great comment for the haters saying that Ouya and Mojo were commercial failures this will be two and then he responded to that saying how many consoles were unsuccessful or moderately successful until the NES came along and made the formula work I thought that was a really good point I don't necessarily agree that razer's console is going to be the big winner here and I think it's probably going to be some integration within TVs that is going to finally gain traction not smart TV I think it'll be more like what they're trying to do with cars yes Apple and Google have been talking about that lately replacing the craptastic job that they've been doing making their cars intelligent they'll be doing the same thing by replacing the craptastic job that every single TV manufacturer has done with Smart TVs the problem with okay the problem here though is the difference between car manufacturers and TV makers because car manufactur curers have been through the worst of it they're like okay we suck we need outside help someone please come tell us how to capture the minds and hearts of our customers again please whereas TV makers are still living in like this castle of arrogance that we can do no wrong and $40,000 TV we're all going to create our own freaking ridiculously stupid way of doing things that has nothing to do with anything else and this this comes back to and it's not a TV it's the G3 again but this comes back to my G3 review I'm just going to try and find my notes on it it's probably not going to make it into my review because my review notes are five pages and my limit for myself is two pages so but but this is this is great share and connect under networks is like an LG proprietary sharing thing and I'm just like what I have in here is LG and Samsung need to pull their heads out of their asses and work with Open Standards on this kind of stuff I challenge anyone at LG or Samsung to come up with one time one time that some proprietary stupid only within one brand standard worked on a consumer product one time I bet you can't it works with professional grade stuff Sony gets away with it with professional grade stuff because professionals have the budget to go and invest in an entire ecosystem whereas consumers buy things peace meal I mean think about how you buy things as a consumer things other than food let's talk about more expensive stuff obviously you go buy food you buy an entire meal so you go and you buy a hamburger you buy some fries and you buy something else and you expect all those things to go together reasonably well but let's say you go and you buy a house lus doesn't cook much actually let's not let's not talk about let's not talk about house let's come up with something uh um something with a lot of pieces that kind of work okay let's say you furnish a house there's a great example do you go and buy all the same brand Furniture just because there's a chance that it will operate together correctly or do you buy what suits your taste and what's appropriate to each of the different things that you're trying to achieve that's how people buy things consumers that's how consumers buy things and a lot of times especially in the technology space you might buy something and then 3 years later you have to buy something else and then even if you did buy within the same ecosystem they're probably not going to work together anyways I know my favorite is the Galaxy Tab 10.1 the original one that didn't get support for all share yeah whereas the um the cellular everyone's saying they all buy Ika Furniture wrecked Get Wrecked oh it's so true the cellular uh Wireless version had it and there was like a firmware hack that the Samsung rep was telling me I could do and I'm just like really why don't you guys just enable this crap you're locking your own customers out of your own stupid proprietary thing that doesn't even work that well anyway yeah yeah and like I I actually don't know anyone that buys a new a new PC laptop phone fridge washing machine dryer TV tablet all at the same time on game console now and game console like what it's like it just doesn't work that way no no amount of trying to make make it work that way is going to make it work going to make it work that way all right we should probably do our sponsor spot here so uh this is cool you guys some of you anyway are going to probably like this I thought it was pretty neat stay on this page I guess save the pages save the changes um leave this page here we go so this is fun we actually had a really great live stream with Intel earlier this week I'm going to post it in the twitch chat here and I'm going to go ahead I'm going to throw up the lower the lower third that we used for it so it was # Devils Canyon and Intel's new CPUs uh just launched and we actually had one of their product marketing Engineers uh his name is Darren Lynch on the show to talk about behind the scenes which is something so guys go ahead bookmark that go watch it later it's only about an hour long and it's really really informative because there's a ton of stuff about what goes on to bring a CPU you to Market that you don't even think about I mean we were talking about all kinds of crazy options like having a liquid cooler in the Box having a goldplated IHS I mean these are things they've considered and he talked about the reasons why they would be cool the reasons why they just don't work in the real world um even things like changing the box he talks about the challenges involved in that and it might not sound that interesting right now but it was like something like remember when AMD did that tin box for the FX processors it's he kind of laughed when I brought it up because he was like yeah it's funny you mention that because um I can tell you exactly how much that box cost we ran out and looked at how much it would cost to Source it in fact we've done it several times both before and after the competitor did it just and just every time we just kind of looked at it and we went you know like we've looked at packaging for extreme editions that's like a column like a clear column that has the CPU floating at the top that would be pretty Co and he's just like but that package is going to cost $50 so I mean do we take that out of our margin do we charge the customer another 50 bucks then you get customers complaining they're paying $50 for packaging and he's like and frankly I agree with them yeah so that's why it just comes in this box and uh I because I and it was funny because I didn't actually realize at the time that I had someone who had as much influence on the call cuz I was like yeah and what's up with Intel changing the extreme Edition packages to Blue instead of black and he's like well that was actually me who made that call awkward yeah so he was straight up responsible for some of the things that I've been whining about for the last few years and it was really interesting to get his and he wasp yeah he was really honest which was really refreshing and really cool so guys I'm going to link that one more time and you should definitely check it out because it was super educational and uh there you go all right so let's move on to our next sponsor today and that is do Shave Club if I could find there it is arranged your Arenal all right so I have all the Dollar Shave Club stuff now here you can hold these thank you so basically guys Dollar Shave Club if you're not familiar with it already is the fast easy way to get highquality shaving and bathroom supplies delivered to your door and it's funny because I actually had someone joking on Twitter about why Dollar Shave Club would sponsor this guy when they could sponsor someone with you know a manly awesome beard like Logan instead to which I have this to say over the last few days oh no my screen sharing is not working anymore all right I wanted to share my screen with you guys that on the network oh no but it could be yes okay I will do that so I'll share this on the network and then I will you guys should have seen him on Highlander he tried to be a Highlander yep I was like I he was Grizzly I was I was like yeah I'm going to do this so people are like he was lonus Grizzly yeah lus can't even grow a beard why does Dollar Shave Club you know sponsor this guy and the answer is because if they didn't then it's possible that you would have to deal with this oh he's hideous that is what I look like if I have about four days of of stubble it's disgusting it's horrible and thanks to Dollar Shave club's high quality razors that you can get delivered to you once a month so you can use a fresh razor for a nice clean and comfortable shave every single week you don't have to look at that isn't it awful everyone should sign up for Dollar Shave Club right now so that they never have to look at or like that that's the most compelling pitch that I can come up with also they have other great products their shave butter makes things more comfortable for you to you know take the hair off your face with also it goes on clear so you can see what you're doing and finally one wipe charlies's which I could do a live demonstration for you with but no I'm getting okay no one wants a live demonstration peppermint scented butt wipes for men I'm sure someone wants a live demon they just plain do a better job think about it this way baby wipes are they premoistened or are they dry they're pre they're premoistened they're pre moistened you're asking the wrong person adult toilet paper is it pre moistened or is it dry it's dry what's more effective to remove something a baby wipe or a piece of toilet paper there you go all right and our last one is Squarespace so this one is actually fun we're going to do our winner announcement from last week so we're going to search for # Linus Squarespace where I asked anyone who has used our offer code so that's offer code lonus over the last little while I asked for everyone to submit your own Squarespace sites and we were going to pick a winner at random so we're going to do that in a moment but first guys Squarespace is the easy fast affordable way to make a beautiful website it really truly is we use it for linusmediagroup tocom Luke's building his own website with it it's just plain better and easier to use than a lot of other options out there they have 247 tech support all their templates look really great and they've got different templates that are designed for all kinds of different uses whether you want a little site for your small business a store a Blog a portfolio it'll look great on the desktop on mobile on laptop everything in between maybe not on a watch although I should let the Squarespace guys know I want to see like like um you know circular web design Google Google Wear optimized Squarespace templates in the near future if they can offer that then they'll be the first to have the world's most pointless feature So Random now we can web browse like this what's that can't see seriously though Squarespace has features that matter like enabling you to just uh use their logo designer to create a cool logo for yourself it's actually really fast to use we did it live once and it took us like a couple minutes to make a cool logo and like preview it on a business card I wasn't quite done building my website because of e3 stuff and everything that came up when my trial ran up and I felt so bad cuz they like send you these emails they're like what could we have done better and I'm like nothing you were fine it was me I'm sorry there was nothing wrong with you I had to go on a trip and work I promise I'll finish my website oh that's the saddest thing ever all right so here is our featured Squarespace site oh I can't screens share with you go to URL there I'll go to the URL over here this is driving me but dendi is not ugly I don't know why that person even

it looks good every Squarespace site pretty much has that okay everything kind of works and you got this slider these drop downs look kind of nice you go tip video tips figure out how we can make a like 24-hour GoPro recording thing yeah we were discussing that on Highlander how cool it would be if we could um do oh am I even oh crap I'm not screen sharing with these guys am i l okay chat will tell us once they catch up yeah exactly uh oh wow oh there we go starting to P us what the heck is this how probably grabbed a certain screen region okay screen there you go there we go don't worry we'll get this PO you can click on something weird Squarespace if you're watching please don't hate me please don't hate me okay so we're going to go back so anyway there you go now I'm showing you

ahead and submit it to me with the hashtag when I ask you for it for a chance to win your own website for free so you go ahead and you can go through here you can see how the little dropdowns work you can go check out some video editing tips yeah we were talking during Highlander about how we could get a GoPro running for an entire year at a time or not an entire year for an entire day at a time and we figured you could probably do it with their proprietary interface if you could have a video feed to an external recorder and then you could have an external battery and then both ends of the of the connection would have to be waterproof and like damage proof you case for it so that the connector is like made into the case so that it's waterproof and stuff but if there's some way to do that even if it's not waterproof someone tell me because that's way too cool all right anyway so just one more time guys squarespace.com Linus for 10% off use offer code lonus and go check out that stream I'm going to go ahead and Link you guys to that again here in the video description it definitely is or in the video description in the twitch chat it definitely is worth the time and then finally our last sponsor today um Dollar Shave Club right so head over to dollarshaveclub.com and sign up now so that you don't look like a scary scary person should I make them look at it one more time sure oh my gosh look at him he's a hideous I wish I could zoom it in more we really should have taken that picture right when you got off the mountain CU we just all looked so messed up I know I don't think my eyes have ever looked that sunken before in my life I I I told you I went to the washroom and looked in the mirror when we got to that restaurant and was just like what I hardly recognized my own face me too like it was it was pretty horrible and uh thank goodness I have I have shaved now you know what's funny is uh that reminds me of something that I thought of at the beginning of the show to improve the show so I made you guys look at that but check this out I came up with this brilliant idea oh yeah check this out oh the W show now with 30% more handsome sure and he never needed a Cod host again see what I was trying to say is that he should at least try to find some way to delay that video there's got to be some way I would be surprised if you can do that I don't think so as long as we don't crash xsplit you're okay yeah I know we're good I don't want to mess with it anymore but if you could have one side that was delayed a little bit so it like looked at least slightly like there was two different movements that would be pretty cool I guess that would help a lot okay I'm I'm go ahead and get rid of that I'm sorry you guys I you have like Linus and then make the other one like that that weird inverted color thing so it's like lonus and Hulk lus I've put you guys through so much today all right the original poster for this one was diff dlf I don't know whatever um so forbes.com is the article that we're using to reference here and PS Now prices have been leaked someone told me to push you out of the way so it was double me oh for crying out loud it just keeps screwing up the screen I think what I have to do is just do this and then we can all look at forbes's and continue to the site thanks Forbes thanks for that dog all right PlayStation Now a good idea with a bad plan says the writer so pretty much uh we're looking at pricing anywhere from4 to 7 us to rent a game for a week you can rent for 4 hours 7 days 30 days or 90 days with some time periods unavailable for some games there are a couple of issues with the way that they're handling it though so pricing is a little bit questionable with 4our chunks of time coming in at around I think it's $3 to4 so you're paying near or about a dollar an hour to play the game um something that might be okay if you just want to try it before you buy um but I mean another factor is that these are mostly older games and I'm kind of sitting here going like I could probably find one in a used bin and pay like 15 bucks for it or 10 bucks or 20 bucks and own it forever someone in the chat said or just get the same price on a steam sale and that well remember this is this is PlayStation games so so this is like their yeah um and then it's up to about $30 for a 90day period and again with an older game you're looking at a situation where for 30 bucks you could probably just own it forever and get a disc um I think the biggest here is not the idea I I think the idea of of renting games digitally is still fine the the Forbes article right the the Forbes author criticizes this concept in general and says something like a subscription based service would be much better but I suspect Sony's Sony's hands are pretty much tied on that one I don't think they'd be able to do it well they yeah because right now they're leaving pricing up to the publisher and I think they'd have to and I think they would have to do that I mean it's much like Steam valve doesn't set the pricing for a third party title yeah so valve can't just come in and say okay we're going to have a steam subscription you pay 60 bucks a month and you can play any game on Steam because do that they'd have to set up like a Netflix like service which would be Insanity how do you how do you divvy up the funds according to what got watched um or maybe you do or maybe you don't I don't know it seems like it seems like we're asking for a lot and at least this is a step in the right direction in terms of digital distribution um it's just it's not quite there yet it's got to be cheaper older games in particular probably shouldn't be very expensive um one one issue I have with sort of paper use in general is that it's going to lead developers even more down that path where multiplayer is the only thing that matters because they're going to be optimizing for playtime yeah rather than necessarily compelling storytelling which is something that does have a value yeah like uh I know transistor isn't really the longest game ever but it ends when it should end like I feel like they if they added things to it and they made it longer it would have just been wasted time have you played much Bravely Default yet speaking of games that don't end when they should end no I haven't okay not much I played a little bit you're driving me crazy cuz I don't want to spoil the game for you cuz there are parts of it that are good but I haven't had any time yeah I know and then like on the plane back which when I was intending to play it I was just like no way that was happening I passed out so hard on the plane back from Highlander me too well we you be passed out on the floor in the airport yeah that's true before the plane we did do that thing all right so the op for the first Android and that is to say robot not Android the mobile operating system it's real confusing yeah I know right a newscaster this was posted by top war Gamer In The Forum and this stuff is scary man I'm going to go ahead and load up the YouTube video here here I apologize for this slightly less elegant than usual way of doing this um let's go ahead got the whole need to see your your taskbar well whatever man I don't care um so screen share with Linus we go ahead and maximize that so Japan unveils the world's first Android newscaster so he hands her a piece of paper um apparently the robot has perfect language skills and a sense of humor man that's creepy um this guy is slightly less creepy he's well he's done he's made like that's the guy that made the robot of himself that was actually even crazier than this there's certain times when it's like like this chick when she's sitting at certain points in time and when it pans past the other girl very specific points in time where it's very hard to tell other than that though the the movements you can still tell that one I think the other girl looks more realistic in my opinion yeah probably anyway she's uh she's reading some news about an earthquake um obviously a lot of this is programmed right now and they're not able to just kind of come up with things on their own but the objective is to keep improving this and uh yeah I guess uh the future is going to be an interesting time and place this brings up a conversation that I actually brought up when we were at the airport mm which is where everyone is using the automated terminals yep and I I noticed one of the big things that we got Flack for on the show not Flack but one of the big things that became a conversation when we've talked about automation on the show before is people have brought up that people need human inter action and I see that being disproven everywhere the amount of times that I see people voluntarily go through the self- automated checkout instead of the person driven checkout at stores is getting more and more and more and then now at airports it almost becomes frustrating to have to deal with people it's kind of annoying because it's like oh I have to deal with this person who's probably going to be a jerk when I could have maybe just gotten through the terminal with no problem the flip side of that is that on both our flight to Denver and our flight back the autal terminal systems ever that's the problem the automated terminal didn't pick up my reservation on the way there and then yours and Ed's reservations on the way back because it thought we already checked in which is really bad and we had to go talk to a person so they can make them better though but that's that's that's I I don't know about that whole required human interaction argument flip side okay so I'm going to get you to cover this one because um you're the VR yeah so this project was originally thought of by uh French googlers David CA and Damen Henry in part of their 20% thing which I thought was gone but is apparently still here so that's cool so the 20% thing is where 20% of your time at Google has to be spent doing kind of your own independent projects and then uh people thought this thing was so freaking cool that they jumped on and made sdks for it and it actually became a much bigger deal is this screen sharing yep so you basic you saw it if you click it again I think it goes back together if you scroll up more I think there's a way to make it go SL you keep scrolling out if you there we go there we go you manually scroll it it goes slower so you can see this is the package that people got at Google IO you can't just buy this I don't think so if you went to Google IO you got this package so you pull the tab thing and then it folds out all nicely but you can make this on your own uh if you have a laser cutter they actually have the file that you need for the laser cutter to able to read that file and then cut it for you or there's instructions on how to cut it with like a nice exacto knife or something like that and the magnet on the side with the like washer thing that's sitting there is actually a a Buton they can't see you but sure now they can there's a magnet on the side which I I actually wanted you to scroll to it not look at me but either way there's a magnet on the side which looks like it doesn't really have a use but if you're looking at something and you want to select it you just pull the magnet down which is actually really smart and it apparently works really well from the videos that I've seen which is really cool um they haven't tried it on a ton of phones yet fully compatible phones are Google Nexus 4 and five Motorola Moto X Samsung Galaxy S4 and5 and Samsung Galaxy Nexus partially compatible phones are HTC1 Motorola Moto G and Samsung Galaxy S3 that's really not a ton of phones um it's a but 180 Meg app and includes a bunch of stuff that you can do already so you can fly around on Google Earth uh you can go on a tour of Versa with a local guide you can watch YouTube videos on a massive screen so it's just using the lenses so that the lenses are one of the things you have to figure out how to Source they help you though so you use those lenses to make the screen appear much larger and further away than it is and and it is a custom YouTube app like if you're watching the video and you look over to the right there will be other video selections and you can use that thing on the side to select those videos like it's fairly interesting I don't know um I mean obviously this isn't going to take the place of something like Oculus like we were joking in the int it's not trying to though it's some things that'll be really interesting is stuff like street view stuff like Google Earth um the the Versa local guide wind windy day windy day will be really cool I've used I've used windy day on Moto X I don't know if you have um It's actually kind of fun even with just the Moto X being able to do it with a cardboard thing would be kind of awesome windy day is kind of a little interactive thing where you kind of look around with your screen and it's kind of like a little movie but but in VR you of inter you control the camera ESS so you follow this hat pretty much that's what happens but it's actually it's pretty cool PR neat yeah I'm definitely going to make one I don't have access to a laser cutter so I'm probably going to try to get a really sharp knife and do the best that I can I'm not going to Pizza Box it I'm actually going to try and Source like proper materials so I'll see how I can do there if you are interested in making one definitely go to Google's website which I believe is developers.google.com / cardboard because they actually have sourced everything for you already it's very possibly out of stock because a whole bunch of people have been buying them and if you look at one of them and then look at the um items frequently bought together they're all the other ones so they're pretty easy to find um but yeah it's they also help you Source it locally so they'll be like here's an Amazon or other website link to this product and also here's all of its specs if you want to try and find it somewhere else that you can buy it all right another news Intel has apparently asked AMD for access to mantle for an experiment so there's nothing that sounds super committal the original article here is from tweak town from Intel on this I mean basically yeah for an experiment um they have reaffirmed their position with direct X saying they are still committed to this open standard that um they think is going to continue to drive the industry forward and address the the previous issues with um API overhead and all the stuff that mantle was looking to try to help developers with but that isn't to say that Intel is completely dismissing it which I think is really interesting because as much as there's the whole AMD versus Nvidia Fanboy War something that a lot of people forget is that Intel actually has more market share for graphics then the two of the others combined and this has been true for years and years and years and years it's actually something that Darren our our expert from Intel brought up and so if intel were to stay committed to directex that could pretty much dictate the direction the industry goes and if intel were to get on board with mantle along with the 47 game developers that are signed up for the API then that could dictate the direction that the industry goes it's amazing how much power Intel has in very strange ways some um that the article also mentions is that Nvidia has only signed up krych and Ubisoft to its Game Works program however I think that that could be a little bit deceptive I don't think that AAA uh game makers are the ones who are going to mostly take advantage of a program like Gameworks I see that more as an indie play and I think we might see more come out of that in the next couple of years but um apparently AMD responded by asking Intel for a month or two until it's out of closed beta and um there we go an Intel spokesperson said at the time of initial mantle announcement we were already investigating rendering overhead based on game developer feedback Our Hope was to build consensus on potential approaches to reduce overhead with additional data we have publicly asked them to share the spec with us several times as part of examination of potential ways to improve apis and increase efficiencies so that doesn't really sound a whole lot like they're planning to use mantle or push towards mantle just want to mess with it it sounds more like they just want to dink around with it in the lab which is I don't know that's cool I get it maybe optimizations or something who knows uh the Moto 360 watch face competition is over this is actually the one I liked best even though I didn't end up voting one yeah yeah yeah yeah there there was a couple that I was like oo I would have absolutely no problem with that one this was definitely the one that I liked best yeah me too I mean as much as I don't prefer to read an analog face if I don't have to this looks really good yeah it does uh the one thing that does bother me is a lot of the space is taken up with telling me the time whereas I would like for a lot of the space to be taken up with reading my text message I have pretty good eyes it can and I like small fonts yes I know you can you can change it out to whatever you want but I wish that instead of just having an icon for Gmail there was more room on the main watch face to to to read messages like if we could put the time up here and then have message previews down here something person I don't mind that because I don't want it to be aggressive yep and I don't I don't hate this either I actually quite like well you said it was your favorite one I didn't think you hated it just like personally I I don't like reading things until I want to read them I end up marking things unread a lot because I'll accidentally click on something and just be like damn it I need to read this later I'm not ready for this right now so I don't mind it's kind of hiding in there for now this is funny because it kind of ties into one of our sponsors um where dollar oh right I keep forgetting that we're not doing the normal thing uh this ties into one of our sponsors pretty well because Dollar Shave club's whole thing is you know oh razors with vibrating handles and all these features that actually don't do anything we don't do any of that stuff um well this is oral be's new toothbrush that pairs to your phone via Bluetooth freaking genius so this is supposed to be by Nan and basically it gives you a bunch of information including things like how you can brush for better results and it can share your uh your brushing habits with your healthc Care Professionals something that I'm sure that my dentist would be like what if I told them about it I care and there's that one time that you leave it plugged in and on it's like he brushed for 3 days like what I'm sure there's a SA guard against that I'm sure you sure I'm pretty sure remember the zero voltage thing that happened no what is this that that certain that certain board that reports voltage of your CPU and it was like zero volts oh yeah right things that you would think it would just have you like sanity checks built-in sanity checks need to be a thing yeah because without them you can end up with some really funny software stuff um EV blog how however he pronounces that this this is yeah anyways this is actually pretty interesting uh posted a great video about how solar roadways are basically um grade A BS um did the math and pretty much at the end of the video the conclusion is they would consume more power than they produce they have proven absolutely nothing with respect to what they can handle in terms of weight and what they can handle in terms of traction um they are extremely expensive you can watch the video here on the Forum if you want the original poster here was jurr or something along those lines um I mean it's a great idea in theory they raised over $2 million through crowdfunding but it is pretty unlikely that this will see the light of day in this generation it's something that we talked about originally on the show and we kind of went okay yeah something a lot of people are saying in twitch chat and uh yeah we know is that there's actually been a lot of videos about this out for a long time this but this one was really good yeah well some of the other ones are pretty good too but yeah either way so I mean yeah so what we need then is just some kind of outlandish idea that sounds like really great to Eco Freaks and then we need like a really great campaign video and then freaking roadways well that wasn't their campaign video that's the funny thing about it no but that's what drove more yes it drove a lot of it so then we need like that we need to find that guy to make our our viral our viral video should be like solar trees they grow with sunlight you should fund us they also make oxygen wow you need that to live isn't that freaking awesome they look great in your yard and they live for hundreds of years they're seasonal W or they're not maybe not it's up to you Evergreen you have the choice man Evergreen can be a stretch goal and growing your own weed plant can be the next stretch goal stimulate economies if they make it legal oh it's funny cuz we were in Colorado yeah all right also posted by Twisted dictator on the Forum Witcher three to feature boob physics which is one of those things where it's like if Witcher 3 was the first game to include boob physics then this I guess good boob physics but apparently next power up thought it was new so my favorite thing is either either they jump around and they just sit there like solid bricks or they jump around and then they go like no one can see you right now but I think they should probably see that illustration of what you were talking about so I said I'm sorry how did you want the boobs to move again I didn't say I wanted them to move this way I said with bad boob physics they do move this way so either they jump around and they just sit there which is not realistic or they jump around and then like a while afterwards it's like oh that's not how they work either we've seen that in quite a few games and it gets super stupid after a while or like there'll be a slight movement like they'll just slightly get bumped and it's like oh they'll just sit there bouncing for a while it's like no you know the thing is if these real if these strategies didn't work game developers wouldn't do it so for all the people who get all upset about this kind of thing just if you didn't buy into it if you didn't make a bunch of noise about it it would go away I'm down for more realistic gameplay so if they if they make that realistic that's cool I think it should be and I'm all for equality so I think we should have like realistic testicle physics you know what if C you're playing rust if CD project red wanted to seem like you know very uh equality minded then they could they would definitely do that like if we had realistic junk swaying but then there isn't that many games other than like rust that you're actually going to see that yeah but they could well boobs are very exterior you're going to see them even if they're covered up okay the thing about the thing about the thing about breasts though is that game developers designed game around making sure that the breast physics are on display the whole time so they design the female characters out you want someone to design a game based around yeah having the junk physics there for the world to see why not so the camera angle is going to have to be like down all what or like you know how okay you know how Laura Croft like shamelessly provocatively stretches whenever you're not doing anything for so some dude's going to have to do like the unstick step it's going to have to have realistic physics or just like the you know the cry adjustment you know oh no okay oh wow swimming simulator 2014 yes all the banana hammocks we need the Nvidia to add that into their their their yeah Gameworks library for for like junk physics and all the viewers left no twitch breaks every I know twitch breaks I'm just kidding oh man oh people on the twitch chat are like stop please and it's funny because your timing is excellent I think we're pretty much done here are there any other topics in the dock you really wanted to hit uh we didn't talk about Highlander at all but I guess we have all the videos coming so it's not yeah Highlander videos will be coming you're going to see videos from Austin you're going to see videos from us oh okay this is kind of a big deal Microsoft is offering this was originally posted by good bites on the Forum Microsoft is offering up to $650 off a Surface Pro 3 if you exchange a MacBook Air at a Microsoft Store it does have to be working but quite frankly I would take the MacBook Air over the surface at this point which isn't to say I would buy a Macbook but you bought a service I did but I'm going to sell it for yeah not for MacBook yeah not for a Macbook I'm going to keep using my XPS 12 whoops because to me this with the okay so here oops that's basically how it works but okay so you get a little bit of not much more thinness and it is lighter and it is smaller like it's significantly lighter than the XPS 12 is it enough that it matters though like no it's it's enough it's it's something okay so you get you get more thinness so there's that I mean I'm not making the point here about the thinness it really is thinner you didn't make much of a point about thinness or weight because there's not much weight difference between there is a significant weight difference um but the problem for me is that Windows 8 is not a good tablet experience it's actually nothing to do with the hardware the hardware the hardware is very beautiful um pick it up more and then yeah junk physics not that I'm calling the surface junk um the the problem is just there's not enough USB ports two USB ports is minimum to call it like a reasonably functional PC we get one um it does have mini display port out which is nice compared to other tablets there's no SD card reader to my knowledge although they might have hidden one under there no they didn't so there's no SD card reader or anything like that it is very beautiful the kickstand is a lot better than the first gen which is the last time I tried one it comes all the way out here so that gives you a lot of different different options like you can sit on a plane and you can uh like lean it up against the seat in front of you the magnetic lock for the keyboard is pretty robust which is cool so you can kind of like lean it up against something in bed or you can put it down here and you can rest it on your knee and you can legitimately use it and all that stuff is great but the question I have to ask myself is why would I ever use it without the keyboard and then if I'm never going to use it without the keyboard then why wouldn't I just want my keyboard occasionally attached once in a while I do use Windows 8 as a tablet sorry yeah permanently attached like this once in a while I do use Windows 8 as a tablet when that happens this may be bulkier but it's good enough because I'm not going to do it very often and that's going to be basically the conclusion of my Surface review um apparently Wendell has an SD card reader maybe I didn't find it I'm not done my review yet like I'm not actually filming this until next week so I haven't basically the way that I usually do my reviews is um it's under the hinge it's under the hinge apparently that's a really weird oh that seems pretty sensible under the hinge eh I don't I don't oh maybe that's the micro SD slot right there there you go why would you put micro SD on it really oh oh headache anyway um oh not helpful when I'm offloading footage on a video set or something like that um oh anyway where was I going with this right so the way I typically do a review is I figure out as much as I can on my own without really looking at any other media coverage of it then I go back and I look at sort of the launch press release and all that stuff to make sure that I'm not missing anything critical so I would have figured the SD card out I'm still not particularly pleased with it and I'm still not going to switch from a convertible like this because it just doesn't make any sense to me I use it as a tablet so rarely that I might as well have something that here this is this is the ultimate example of why I'm not going to use this because I can use it in my lap sort of but why have this which if I go to you know oh pick it up and it falls apart why have that when I can just have this which is weighted correctly to not fall off the back of me I can pick it up however I want I can turn it around I can use it like this it's just a lot more flexible it's a lot more practical and it's cheaper so at the same price I would take the XPS 12 at a lower price I would definitely take the xps2 um I don't know that there are many other convertibles that I like better than the xps2 though Sony's is terrible like just tragic um I I don't have a ton of experience with different convertibles I like that one a lot though the yoga is excellent I when we had the yoga at at the ncx office I liked it a lot oh people are bringing up the pen for the surface as someone who doesn't use a pen um I'm not a big fan um people who are talking about note taking with a pen yeah I I get that um however show them the thing which thing oh the fact that the only way to take a screenshot is with the pen oh no I meant like like oh right so my issue with the pen is that it doesn't stash in the device and the Geniuses at Microsoft I'm sure they're very smart legitimately but this is how you're supposed to attach the pen to the surface there's a little magnet where the uh where the the the charging port is that you're supposed to attach the pen to it just comes off and then and then if you get a type cover the the Innovative solution there is you stick a sticker on it don't worry any word oh okay you stick a sticker to it and then you put the pen through the loop on the sticker and I'm just like really you guys engineered a fraction of a scent solution to a problem that actually matters that's what you did just there I yeah like I the reason why I like how the 2DS is made is it's super easy to get the pen because that's where they put the colored strap along the back it's not even a strap like the colored piece of plastic is where the pen goes super easy to grab it super easy to put it back I get that it's thin and that's great but I'm sorry I just I'm not keeping it I was going to keep it if it was if it was fantastic the keyboard though is not nearly as bad as people are making it out to be I actually quite like the type cover keyboard it's surprisingly good so there's that all right I think we're done here guys thank you for watching The W show if you're tuning in late the archive will be up on the YouTube sometime in the next little while or up on Twitch immediately for those of you we had someone complaining on the uh on the Forum about how the archive goes up really late and it's just like it's up right away on Twitch and they're just like I don't want to watch on Twitch I'm like okay it's kind of like when people message me on Facebook um hey uh I noticed on your Facebook it says not to message you on Facebook and to message you on Twitter but um I don't have Twitter so I'm messaging you here I'm just like Twitter's free man sorry there's a reason that I only accept messages on Twitter and here I will screen share with you guys I will show you why I only accept messages on Twitter I'm going to go on Facebook right now and I'm share with you guys you're not screen sharing right now right nope okay cool not yet okay so I'mma I'mma go on my I'mma go on my lonus tech Twitter Facebook Malian okay here we go Twitter my Facebook mation so here's my screen here is why I will never reply to Facebook messages because when I click on them and I write a reply hello sorry I don't reply to Facebook messages press enter to send actually it's a lot faster now okay well they they're doing better it used to be really really slow to load messages that slow it's better now that was still pretty slow no that's pretty fast okay it used to be really slow now I don't have an excuse but still RDM RTM well there's there's there's there's methodology now you don't want to answer there you want to answer someone else yes and the thing about Twitter too is I get a lot of people tweeting me saying hey I want to ask you a question that's longer than 140 characters um how do I do that and the answer is you don't because I get too many messages um the best thing to do if you have a tech question is to post on the lineus tech tips Forum it's like really good it is that's a good place to go and ask questions because if you don't get the right answer the first time um someone else will post the right answer at some point so someone do that and then Tweet back to me saying that no one answered them they tweeted I checked times on things they tweeted me like 3 minutes after they had posted their thing I checked it like 30 minutes afterwards and by the time I checked it there was a page and a half of comments nice I was
