The Oculus VR and Twitch Streaming News

Oculus VR is getting Twitch streaming soon, according to recent reports from yesterday's news. This exciting development promises to bring an immersive experience to Oculus owners, allowing them to interact with others and watch live streams in a fully virtual environment. With this new feature, Oculus users will be able to access a wide range of content, including games, music, and art, all within the comfort of their own homes. The potential for social interaction and community building is vast, making this a highly anticipated update from one of the leading VR companies.

Forchan, a popular imageboard website, was sold to its creator after being attacked through an IMER exploit. Despite struggling to be profitable, Forchan's community remained dedicated, but ultimately, the site's financial struggles led to its sale. This is not a surprising turn of events, as many online communities face challenges in terms of profitability and sustainability.

Nintendo has joined Kronos Group, a organization that maintains open GL and Vulcan, an alternative API to DirectX 12. Valve Corporation had publicly stated that DirectX 12 didn't matter unless you were deeply involved in its development, citing its Windows 10 exclusivity as a major drawback. However, the inclusion of Nintendo's support for Vulcan suggests that there is more to DirectX 12 than initially thought.

A couple from Oregon tried to resolve a $2 million Verizon cell phone bill, highlighting the complexities and frustrations that can arise when dealing with large companies. In other news, the iPhone 6s has performed exceptionally well in geekbench tests, obliterating other top Android phones and even rivaling the performance of some older MacBooks.

The iPhone 6s's impressive performance was attributed to its powerful dual-core processor, which delivers strong results across various benchmark tests. This is all the more remarkable considering that many users experience thermal throttling issues with their MacBooks, limiting their performance capabilities.

In an interesting aside, it has been noted that Apple's ability to release tablets that outperform their phones despite being in a similar form factor is a testament to the company's innovative spirit and design expertise. However, this also raises questions about the efficiency of thermal management systems in these devices.

The Final Showdown

As we come to the end of our show for today, we have some exciting news about Doom and Gloom. While it's unclear whether this will be a major update or something entirely new, we'll be sharing more information soon. For those who are still eager for updates, we recommend sticking around after the show as we discuss what's in store.

In related news, our team has been working hard to create content that our members of the lus tech tips Forum will appreciate. With this effort, we hope to continue building a strong community and providing valuable resources for those interested in technology.

"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enuh technical difficulties over the last few weeks um as you guys have probably noticed from week to week over the last well probably six to eight weeks we've been very yeah we've been very much closer to three actually but that's fair you know uh we've been very much under construction for the last little while the W show has actually been physically moving around from week to week quite frequently this is incredible twitch has now implemented a feature where the ad that plays before the stream cannot be paused or muted that is fantastic thank you twitch for that wow anyway thanks for like basically making everyone install ad block yeah anyway moving on so we've been very much under construction and you'll probably notice a huge difference between the way we have it set up this week and the way we had it set up last week hopefully you guys like it and if you don't the people in the pre-show know what I think of that because I personally think it looks great uh there's still a few things that we're going to tweak like the positions of things on the shelves and like I want to get an actual shock mount for this microphone instead of just having it sitting on a folded up shirt can it just be like a little coil that shocks people whenever they try to move it no no because if we're going to take it really literally shock mount could have a some pretty scary sorts of meanings there uh anyway we've got a great show for you guys today uh Pebble inro yeah oh there's two different definitions of shock that are both that both work well that was a multi multi-level dirty sort of toilet humor joke I think I actually thought of the second one I mean are sex jokes really toilet humor unless you have sex on a toilet then is not recommended but possible but possible it's like no really I got pregnant from the toilet seat also there was like another there so what is this show about Pebble toilet seats has introduced their first round Smartwatch what an innovation we should just actually host a w show only about toilet seats no we shouldn't Pat Volkswagen oh speaking of things that are in the toilet Volkswagen stock uh they've been ordered to recall 500,000 cars that's the initial news that broke uh but it's going deeper than that so we're going to be discussing that on the show today Apple to release the D Jack um which I think I have that patented is almost as almost as almost as dirty as it sounds and North America is straight up out of ipv4 addresses for real this time so uh stay tuned guys it's going to be a great show you guys see how smooth that was it worked that's what happens when I actually set aside like an hour before the show to set up and then we start start like 40 minutes late formatted the system no we still need to format the system but everything else about it is set up this system is so freaking bored like oh here you know what no no no no I'm going to show show them the thing yeah yeah no no I'll okay okay so guys guys this this is going to be good hold on let me just make sure there's no like you know nothing that I can be sued for on screen here you guys are going to love this though okay so add screen capture for you let's do the whole screen here all right here we go here we go buddies this is some good stuff right here so so check check this out just awesome what is what is that what even is that and where did they go where are they and then they're going to come back at some point and there's like this one missing yeah and like what is this this is nothing it's nothing it's just it's just nothing and uh that's just that's just one of the many completely broke dick things oh yeah about this windows installed and that's just like weird there's ones that are really bad well the thing is is I think when you get enough blue screens on a system something just starts bit rot whatever yeah things happen things things things just Decay and this is one decayed it's not bit rot well Decay okay well okay whatever this is a broken windows install it takes forever to boot up on an SSD and it actually has like nothing installed on it like webcam drivers uh video chat when you blue screen like two times every single time you run the computer yeah then you're basically asking asking for trouble but but no no the the stream's not going to blue screen because uh we are running off you sted on the blue screen I know because it's so scary I wasn't sure if I should say it or not do we have wood is this even real wood I don't know it's MDF it's worth it knock on MDF um so because the black magic cards that cause the stream to blue screen are both working now I did Luke's bringing his wood over his massive wood all right so we're good we're good um people are like bet the ram is bad no it has nothing to do with bad Ram it has to do with the drivers for our black magic capture cards not liking anything uh well no more specifically not liking themselves and their life um so should we should we like do a show I guess I guess I guess we should do a show all right so our first topic is uh oh this is interesting hold on wait yes I need the other Mouse though I got this lineus screen boom yay things are working today it's not going to be that day uh so a new face for Pebble it started with a text seven years ago something something etc etc all right let's just uh let's just pop this baby up okay whatever show us the watch man okay so we had Square watches before look at that it's amazing it's actually kind of rounded so I don't know how uh I don't know if it's really strictly speaking square but this is it the pebble time round oh it keeps going back to he looks like me but with fuzzy hair you know you actually have like okay I don't want you to take this the wrong way you're going to say You're really generic face cuz everyone sends me Twitter things you look like this dude and I'm like a lot of the time I I can kind of see it I know you have like kind of that I never thought that until I got this job and then everyone just tells me that I look like everyone yeah yeah like I can kind of see it you're like well you're kind of the blue-eyed blond haired like guy with kind of the rugged sort of face I don't want to okay well no I'll say ruggedly handsome face okay okay with the rugged face usually looks like someone just drove a truck over your face yeah it's like you know man it's rugged your face looks like it could go through a war yeah your face looks like it could be a tire um probably like IP67 so there we go this is the pebble time round basically it's got the same processing on board as the steel it is hyper hyper thin it is round and they have an SDK out for app Developers to allow them to convert their applications to the round face which is which is the only real difference cuz they haven't changed a bunch of the other Hardware what they did do is they nerfed the battery life pretty hardcore uh what's up why what do you mean why I didn't know that that sucks because it's thin now I don't care I was talking to someone the other day this is probably a bad idea because I'm talking to people I'm going to well yes but I'm going to say an idea that I want to have for a video oh okay but I don't know if you'd let me do it anyways but I want to do um a review of modern phones and during the review I want the phone that's in my hand to constantly change the whole time and I want it to be like it has a great screen it'll run all the apps you want just fine it run all your games just fine uh it's nice and thin the buttons are really good the headphone jack works really well the speakers are kind of met and it's going to be way too easy to block them and they're not in the right spot transfer speeds at USB 2 over wire um like all this kind of stuff and then but the batter's thanks for watching have a good time I want to do that video so bad because honestly it's pretty accurate for like everything I think we could do that but you know what the thing about the round is that you can get another day of battery life oh yeah oh yeah it's so thin that I don't care anymore and that happened a long time ago and it could be thicker but it kind of did yeah it kind of did um there's some good news though you can get days worth of battery in 15 minutes however my issue with Pebble continues to be that they use a proprietary charger so the the problem is not how long it takes to charge the problem is that I have to actually be where my charging cable is which for me is on my nightstand so if I'm traveling or whatever the fact that I can charge it up for a day worth of battery and 15 minutes uh except that I don't have my cable is actually not that not that helpful and the fact that they keep changing the cable all the time um like every generation they just change the cable need to learn from uh who is it who does it really PlayStation I think it's PlayStation's cable has like never changed yeah but the compatibility is broken oh yeah that's worse I actually didn't know that so when it comes to like seven deadly sins okay when we talk when we talk about when we talk about cables because this is something people talked about a lot with Intel lga775 so this was a time when AMD was changing their CPU socket it seemed like every year okay so we had socket a okay 462 then we got socket 940 on the Enthusiast platform for FX which was essentially the server socket but like there was like two CPUs and someone's going to correct me I don't care uh the point I think we got the FX 51 and 53 and maybe 55 for that socket but it's it's it's not the point so then we got soet at 754 at the same time that was like single Channel memory and the consumer version and then both of those went away on the consumer except 940 was still there on the server and then we got 939 on the desktop and then we went from 939 to I want to say A2 and then we got am2 plus and am3 so AMD has done this weird like like Anyway this was back in the in the 939 to am 2 days and everyone was criticizing AMD going they keep changing their CPU socket I have no upgrade path Intel's had lga775 for like 5 years or however long they had it the problem is that the intercompatibility from one 775 board to another 775 chip across Generations was terrible like it was awful it changed as often or more as amd's socket did at least with AMD it was clear you buy a 939 chip you put in a 939 socket it works with Intel you buy a 775 chip you plug it in and you cross your fingers and your toes and you pray to whatever day it is you believe in and maybe it'll turn on and a lot of the time the compatibility is more complicated than that cuz maybe even if it doesn't turn on you can like I don't know find a buddy who has a last gen chip and put that in and Flash the BIOS and then maybe the new chip will work but maybe like not quite as optimally come on so that was my favorite part was hunting for someone who had the right chip so you could do a bio something just horrible so anyway that still a complaint however one thing I will say about this super slim design that that I do think has a value is my wife looked at it immediately said oh that's way better so I have been critical but how long does it they hit a very good thinness with that I will agree but how long does it last I think it's like two to three days or something like that okay so that's not too bad yeah so it's still not a one day battery um give me just a like I I am I am forgetting how long it's yeah there you go two B two day battery life so it's still better than what you're going to get out of an Apple Watch and I've been really critical of other Smartwatch makers pretty much everyone but Apple for not making like a properly functional Smartwatch cuz there have been devices you say everyone but Apple yeah I think the Apple watch looks great on a on a lady's wrist oh I heard something else no you're good yeah um where was I going with this right so I've been really critical of everyone but Apple for not making a properly functional Smartwatch that's actually not going to look weird on my wife um so now that pebble's doing it I can't rip into them for reducing the battery capacity because you have to make trade-offs and I know there have existed smart watches and wearable devices that are like fashion accessories but the functionality on them is so bad it's like it's like you know there's it all comes down to what sort of margin a company is used to making okay so when uh you know when a computer company comes out with a a new like a new uh you know smart accessory and it's priced at X you're going to have like you know let's say why amount of functionality built into it because they're reserving this much for them to just make money yeah and you need to pay other people like Distributors and the guy that actually sells it to you when a shoe company comes in and makes a smart accessory their expectation for how much is left over at the end is much higher so you get like this crummy functionality with a rubbish screen sorry oh where' the overlay go that's weird what the watermark PNG has disappeared that's fine I can I can live I can I can work with that um so they're going to have a certain expectation for how much margin that they're making and that is exactly the problem is that these companies are going to think that they should be making you know 200% a watch clothing rates yeah clothing clothing jewelry fashion brands um are pretty much up their own butts in terms of what they think that their vision is worth um and they can they tend to kind of ignore the the Practical stuff yeah so like perfume and cologne and all that kind like a lot of things in those categories are like that I think he just said uh clothing fashion and jewelry because those are the companies that are kind of getting into SmartWatches now yes exactly uh so I don't know where our normal lower third is since we haven't changed it in forever I cannot find it no why is my life sad I really need to reformat this computer don't let me run the show next week until this computer is formatted because run the show then hey that's not a nice thing to say all right Fade Away there we go and then I think there's like I don't even know where the upper right corner thing is like what what where is that does anyone does anyone know I don't think anyone knows may just called Watermark why don't you just use the search was it in Watermark I don't know was there one called Watermark General assets when Watermark top left.png yay hey look at that that's not a technical difficulty is it is that a strike I think so do we have a three strikes rule no can we have a six strikes rule 15 we need a lot of strikes here yeah all right three is not going to cut it six six may be okay six sounds about good all right so anyway that uh that watch is aiming to ship somewhere in the time frame of November 10th and honestly I'm considering buying one I'll pick one up for the white because she works in a pharmacy and in the pharmacy they have like a no phones rule but would certainly be nice to to be you're just circumventing outdated policies yes so it would be nice to and it like it's funny because like around here we're a very techsavvy employer at Linus Media Group like if people are on their phones at work I'm not giving them a hard time about it because I understand that your phone is like pretty much your life unless their job function really has nothing to do with their phone and they're on it a lot because I consider things like tweeting while you're at the office about the things that we're doing I consider that sort of work so but but in a pharmacy I also understand this you can't really call it an outdated policy I can't think of any reason why a technician is counting pills outdated because it didn't include smartw watches oh I see what you mean ah other form of outd right so so anyway the point is if there's an emergency with the kids or whatever it's nice to be able to get through to her even if she can't message me back I don't expect her to use things like you know voice response functionality because she's also the manager so the the harder she tries to circumvent the rules the more terrible that looks but it's nice to be able to you know just be like hey this or whatever hey can you pick up something she works at Costco so like there's usually something I want her to buy I just ate two bags of those awesome dried mangoes please get me two more bags actually make it three it's a Friday it's this Friday make it five yeah yeah oh it's been a rough day do you want to just do that nope okay apparently not you're putting it off apparently for now because something's not working great so yeah it's like the the most minor of all the things and it's the one it's not working but it kind of needs to be set up for everything to go smoothly right everything will go without it but not smoothly so this has been huge news over the last week uh VW was basically found to be cheating on their us emission standards tests the cars were detecting if they were being tested and they were reducing their output by as much as 40 times or they were outputting 140th uh during testing and then they were ramping it up 40 times on the road this is on their diesel cars and not all of them but it was ones with their four-cylinder diesel engine and so basically what this means is the car performed better for owners yeah which it depends how you define performed better right it felt peier when you pressed the gas pedal yes yeah um but but they were turning off their Emissions Control Systems in order to achieve this so uh their shares have dropped oh this is this is like being updated in like real time their shares have dropped approximately 35% so if you believe that Volkswagen is going to pull out of this um okay with all the usual disclaimers I don't know anyone who works at Volkswagen lonus Media Group has never collaborated with Volkswagen um I do not own any shares in Volkswagen I don't own any shares in anything so take this as the in what oh well in this company no no like publicly traded publicly traded shares like ownes on a stock market I don't own any shares of any publicly traded companies okay so take this for the ignorance that it is if you believe that Volkswagen will recover now might be a nice time to buy because that strategy has worked for many people in the past however the difference between bad news about a product and bad news about the potential 18 billion fine that Volkswagen could be paying in the us alone so we're talking $37,500 per affected vehicle of which there are 500,000 Which is higher than the value than a whole bunch of those that were recalled um so so so so so factor that in now the the bad news gets worse uh Volkswagen is being investigated in other territories as well and Canada being Canada will probably just do the exact same thing that the states did and it's not just Volkswagen either so this is great uh the BMW x3x Drive 20D exceeds European standards by a shocking 11 times the only reason that 11 times doesn't sound that bad in this context is that Volkswagen was exceeding the US standards by 40 times so yeah BMW has issued a denial of any manipulation saying there's no difference in the treatment of exhaust emissions whether they are on test rollers or on the road although VW has admitted it their CEO has stepped down and uh they are in for some serious hot water apparently there's two water marks now uh oh oh oh that's kind of interesting uh I don't know which is which oh wow there's two lower thirs what is happening I don't know I hate this pick the prettier one okay I this is not a second strike this is the same issue they just like disappeared for a little while I don't know what's happening but it's fine now shut up all of you what especially you anyway BMW's X5 was looked at by the West Virginia University and EPA as part of Investigations into the issue it passed it's important to note that almost every car has higher real world emissions than their laboratory results that's I mean there are so many things that are like that let's talk about you know Wi-Fi speeds hey oh real world nothing to do with lab results do they advertise the uh you know perfect world no overhead test results yes should they be allowed to probably not but is that the world we live in yes yeah um that happens for tons of stuff so the UK government has stated that today they will be launching their own vehicle emissions testing following the US's findings oh so this is very much an emerging story we might even be talking about this again next week but I think what's safe to say at this point in time is that there is one vehicle maker who has nothing to worry about Tesla the the safest way to not exceed your rated emissions is to have no emissions whatsoever didn't they release an ad like trolling them or something is that in here I think they did I don't know if this is actually about that um but yeah there's a Tesla no emissions ad that it's like the best way to pass an emissions test is to or this whole this whole car is an emissions test destroying machine or something I don't remember exactly what it is yeah I don't know if this is actually from Tesla or anything this just looks that's yeah no that's yeah so there there you go so zero emissions uh means they could not possibly get into any kind of hot water here so there you go guys um if you have an affected car there's a forced recall in the US but stay tuned because things are going to get really interesting worldwide over the next I mean this could take months this this could take easily months potentially years to finally be resolved so if we're going to weigh in on stock things my opinion be to not necessarily do it now wait till they get hit by a few more countries yeah but then people might go like oh I should buy now because it's really low and then it's going to go up and then it might not fall as far as it went up people might be might be trying to hold for the long term like yeah we don't know we don't play stocks so literally not at all and I will say that I straight up don't do it because I don't know what I'm doing yep me too all right Apple to Rel release the d uh the original article here is Apple Insider salty and creamy at the same time what the hell that leaves nothing to the imagination uh yeah it does Marmite was salty and creamy that's true that was awful that was really bad Marmite is terrible it's really gross all of our Australian viewers what you're supposed to do is spread it very thinly over toast what is the point and we like lathered it well it's kind of like if you took by the way people have been complaining about this you sit back like this when you're going to talk for a while and then I can't hear it okay my bet when if you took like a massive amount of wow yeah nothing's really that bad uh butter if you took so much butter that it was that thick and put it on top of a pizza it's like well yeah but no one would ever put butter on pizza but no one would ever put marmaid on pizza but some people claim that they would who Dennis was saying he thinks it would be good with Dennis is so weird I know I don't think Dennis is fair in this conversation this is the guy that literally like spits out a banana when he tries to take a bite of a chocolate covered insect that really is not that bad wasn't that bad did you eat one no I have way in the past oh okay yeah little kid party when I was a little kid like it grossed me out because I kind of have a bug phobia so when I crunched into it it was like like it made my whole body go like no I can't CR in chocolate yeah but but like the taste wasn't that bad no and then Marmite I'm sitting here like I folded up my pizza cuz I was trying to get over as fast as possible and then when I bit into it it all squished out onto my tongue at the same time so that was the wrong idea I screwed up um and I'm like basically hurling in the corner meanwhile Dennis is like this is great I I even had to ask him I was like would you put Marmite on it just normally and just eat it and he's like no maybe less yeah less yeah he was like oh well not this much you're me here man uh Marmite yay or nay where were we going with this I don't know we were talk oh we were talking about uh creamy salty things creamy salty things right okay so I want to no I want to I want to I want to throw this to you guys first so we got a straw pull we got a straw pull going here Marmite yay or nay and we should give some context for that we had to have pizza with Marmite For an upcoming Channel super fun so and and dragon's Fury hot sauce yeah that was interesting too I what I'll say about this upcoming Channel super fun is that I literally had to lie down for 10 minutes about an hour after we filmed it to just let my stomach get its crap together so to speak I felt really gross i h oh wow oh no I felt really gross and honestly I think it was more because of the Marmite yeah it was it was it was a terrible experience so let's talk about Apple's new connector now this is funny cuz I am pretty sure that we have straight up talked about this on the show before how like there's going to be a limit to how thin Apple can go because you still need a headphone jack no no this is their new patented plug design uh that uh that that has a a d like profile so basically you're going to take your djack you're going to plug it into your phone receptacle and uh in in theory there should be no issues with adapting the the d-shaped cavity jack to a regular round pair of headphones or adapting your round pair of headphones to a d-shaped jack but I really have to kind of like remember that rumor that Apple was going to convert their phones to use the lightning connector for audio yes um that hasn't happened but this almost feels even stupider because you're basically just forcing people to throw for the sake of Elegance you're forcing a lot of people to use adapters and I know there's going to be the millions of people out there buying Beats and plugging their beats into this with their stupid proprietary closed ecosystem ridiculous thing but um at the same time it really is pretty annoying would you prefer have the lightning connector be taken over anytime you wanted to use headphones or would you you prefer being able to plug two things in and have one of them be a weird proprietor you know what nothing use a 3 and half millim Jack don't make your phone thinner yes yeah your phone is th make your phone thicker enough put more battery please I mean it's one of those things this is this is what drives me crazy the camera bumps just going to be bigger yeah yeah the thinner you go the bigger your camera bump so this is what drives me crazy this is what it takes okay for an Android phone to deliver the experience that I want which is me using it pretty much as much as I want for an entire day and the problem with Android is that its idle power uh management is really bad so poor you take an Android phone with an app load out okay it doesn't count to just take it out of the box and put it down and go haha see it only lost 7% battery today not good enough take an Android phone that actually has apps on it one that you actually use yeah put it aside for like a day and it'll have lost 20 to 30% battery which is terrible my iPad or my iPhone loses like 2% per day I can sit my iPad can sit for two weeks without me touching it and still have like 40% on the batteries it's actually usable by the time I get back to it so I want Apple's battery life management but I also want a legitimately High Capac capacity battery because that's the problem with the iPhone if you know heaven forbid you dare to use it to navigate somewhere it's just instantly dead like I can drain an iPhone in like you know 5 hours 6 hours if I'm using it really heavily like if I'm navigating somewhere and I'm talking to somebody on speaker and like like you can hit it pretty hard you can drain it pretty fast whereas the Droid Turbo because it actually has a massive battery it's not just you know power saving tricks and and and and little like voodoo magic that's going on it actually can be used for a significant portion of the day so I would love for Apple to do like an iPhone 6 endurance or seven endurance or or whatever it takes and I know you could say that the 6 Plus or the 6s plus is kind of the endurance model but I don't want a fablet and I especially don't want a fablet that's extremely difficult to hold on to the way that the iPhone 6 Plus is so anyway this it's not out yet this is just a patent that they're applying for for a headphone jack called the djck um yeah djck it's like what is Elon Musk running Apple now like really um I'd prefer it that way it looks like the D Jack might fit in other phones so it could be yeah like when you look at the shape it looks like it could work oh um interesting so maybe maybe it's okay but uh I don't know like's but you're basically you're going to be buying new headphones and the thing about headphones is I really believe in investing in a great pair of headphones and then using them for a long time because frankly audio technology it's improving I usually swap them out when they like break yeah and that's fine because the HD 600s are still great yep and you could buy 650s or 700s but the 600s are still great um and with imem I would say this is maybe less true like over the last 5 years I don't think there's been a ton of innovation but in the last 20 there's been a lot um but uh and a lot of innovation there is like not even necessarily Innovation but things inline controls ribbon cables nicer nicer fitting things to go on your ears Wireless for example oh speaking of Wireless um I've actually got I might actually oh I never really told jbird that I was thinking of this because I wasn't at the time but this could work they offered to send me the x2s cuz um I don't know if you remember this but I I reviewed the blue buds X loved them I know someone who bought them and then they broke like right out of their warranty period really yep mine are still going strong that's a bummer yeah anyway okay well well at any rate I got slammed for that I was like I don't even know what these are cuz I never yeah don't worry so they reached out about sending over the x2s for review and I was like ah we're like we we don't do that much audio stuff these days like lineus Tech tips is transitioning into more like like a show and there are reviews but we're kind of saving it for for Marquee products oh okay well I mean you guys have probably noticed things like moving Vlog no we're the most hard board tech review site on the planet yeah we only do Motherboard BIOS don't review anything else Motherboard BIOS yeah yeah yeah okay I haven't fired you in a long time that's true but I think that kind of merits it you can't when we're the most hardcore tech review channel on the internet you can't find me wow so anyway I wasn't sure if I was going to do a review so I basically said well you can send them if you want no guarantees and they're like yeah we'll take that we'll roll that die and then I also this was a product that I backed a billion years ago when I was kind of getting into doing imem videos and uh and it's the dash do you remember the dash no okay so this is a battery powered inar right yeah yeah and it's supposed to have like not necessarily great battery life but it's supposed to be like super small so I backed that on like Kickstarter or Indiegogo or whatever ages ago so I could do a head to head cool so maybe I'll do that that should be pretty cool so I can take the original blue Bud X I can take the x2s and I can take the dash and I can play some badminton and it'll be an excuse to bring a camera crew out and get like some wicked cool like slow-mo footage of me playing badminton so I like I like go for that I go for that shot and like the sweat drips off my my forehead can we get like the stupid Glamour Shots oh I think we should yeah hey Brandon would that be fun do you want to come and like hang with me and get some like action footage like slow-mo action footage me playing badminton like testing wireless earbuds well I don't know whenever okay Brandon's down Brandon's down so we're totally doing it um what are we talking about are you ready to do your thing uh no are you ever going to be ready to do your thing yes not on the show today though probably probably I I just gave you like every possible conditional answer but they were actually accurate not ready right now I will be ready at some point probably on this show so our relationship is complicated as your friend I could slap you yep as your Tech employer I can't slap you so wait as your lover I shouldn't slap you but maybe but could if you were into it yeah um so I'm just so I'm slapping myself oh wow say if you wait 4 minutes we won't technically be on work time but we're still on work premises yes so and and I mean we could do stuff anywhere that's true so I gota speaking of which I got to get blinds for my office justes make lunchtime that much better I am finally moving into my office I have set up the mineral oil computer much to Luke's sadness that was this really depressing that was the saddest acknowledgement of anything ever cuz he straight up ass he was like can I have the oil PC for my workstation like right when we built it yeah and then also when we moved in here and probably a few times in between there and so my initial response was maybe we'll use it as like a set piece or something cuz it's super cool looking and then it just sat on the oven in the kitchen Gathering dust and dust sits in the oil and then it can cycle into the system oh for literally months for literally months and then finally he moved in and he asked me again and I was like no I'm using it it and his world was crushed and I could tell and it was good no it wasn't it wasn't good cuz there there were there I don't know it's it's one of those things where it's like the CEO's office I think should have like the show piece technically if we want to go with like new age companies the CEO should probably be on the floor with the other employees because it creates a better more healthy work environment see what you're doing hiding yourself in the top Corner giving yourself a private office is more archaic old forms of running companies not really efficient for today's uh management structures okay which are actually more flat than your vertical structure about putting yourself on the top and maybe naming the company after yourself it's more of an Antiquated system it's not really recommended for starting new companies but I guess you know you could do that so this is the same guy that needs me to build him like a fortress of solit upstairs because he finds having one person or because even though we've been here for months the library isn't ready one person or that one person in in the room with him is is too much I can't focus I need my own room and I need active noise cancelling headphones didn't require my own room wanted to do it in the public library needed noise cancelling headphones Public Library is not ready the library actually is pretty much ready to go it needs to be cleaned yeah been told to not work in there so it needs to be tid up we're almost we're almost ready to go we're almost ready to go in there uh so why don't we move on to an actual news topic here North America is out of ipv4 addresses and I know that you've been tied up on something else and you haven't had a ton of time to uh to dock it up here so why don't I do The quick summary and then you can talk a little bit about the implications of this so there it is for really real this time um there's been an awful lot of crying wolf on this subject over the years you know oh well we're out of the one that can be assigned to the assignment Authority or we're out of the ones that can be pre-allocated except in circumstances where we could allocate some more and no no it is happening and it is time for everyone to start switching to IPv6 now we've actually talked about this on Tech quickie before and the complicated thing here is that ipv4 and IPv6 so ipv4 is that up to 12-digit number okay with periods every usually three digits okay and IPv6 is like alpha numeric and longer and while ipv4 can have something along lines of I believe it's four billion addresses IPv6 can literally have enough addresses for like 340 unilan yeah so it's something along the lines of one followed by 36 zeros so I think that's something along the lines of 2 IPv6 addresses for every Square in of Earth or something like that like it's it's it's ludicrous okay someone's telling me it's more than that so the the point is that we need to switch but the problem is that if your website for example uh Linus medag group.com is not IPv6 then IPv6 clients can have trouble and if your website is not backwards compatible with ipv4 then ipv4 clients can have trouble accessing your IPv6 website they're not they don't talk to each other very well and there are like interposer methods but they suck yeah so there's not honestly a ton that you're going to have to worry about if you're watching this show I can basically guarantee you your router is able to handle IPv6 um just going to kind of leave it at that and there's not really a ton else you to do if again if you're watching this show it's basically a guarantee that your computer is ready for this yes and that your network is ready for this most smartphones are ready for this um the the issue is really on the on the website server side and on the internet service provider side again most of those are going to be fun and there are a few things that you're going to have to learn like um you know if you're working on your Lan you're probably using ipv4 addresses you know 192.168 or 1020 do whatever um so you're probably going to want to switch to IPv6 addresses which means there's going to be a bit of a learning curve there I haven't actually a lot more annoying to remember yes like which sucks way more annoying to remember yep the good news is that if they have a lot of zeros in them you can actually shorten them and you don't have to remember the zeros so that will help a little bit I guess um and and you don't have to deal with subnetting anymore so okay although 255.255.255.0 is pretty not hard to which usually autop populates like every time not that big deal like every time yeah it does and unless you're doing more unless you're kind of like a networking guy or gal you're really not working with anything more complicated than that anyway but it's coming for networking people this might change things up tell me this are we ready for IPv6 uh we might need to change a few things but it won't be a problem at all okay well there you go our like websites and stuff are fine cool yeah like internally if you want to start managing things as IPv6 you'll maybe need to change things right but everything else is fine this is cool I just got confirmation I am getting a review sample of the new Moto 360 yay it looks nice it does look really nice at Austin yeah it's a 60-day unit so I'll have to send it back if I even if I really like it I'll just have to buy one but uh you know it looks nice I think Austin gets to keepy P yeah I'm I'm sure I'm sure he does um it looks nice yeah I know it looks nice but it might be too nice for me um I actually like the kind of sportswatch look of the gatr so I I may not want to switch anyway and I'm really going to have to uh I'm really going to have to look closely at what significant difference there really is from this Android Weare device to another one because as far as I can tell no one has really done with Android Weare what they've done with Android where they try to enhance the experience For Better or For Worse um so to me it really seems like up till now um oh up until now one Android we watch is kind of an Android Weare watch and you know what I probably won't be doing it until after I do the Apple watch again anyway because uh watch OS 2 just dropped and I will be doing an iPhone 6s review so I'll be using those two devices together in the meantime Nick is Nick is giving me updates which is which is totally the most professional thing for the onscreen talent to be doing in the middle of a video podcast but I'm getting close to my thing doesn't the Show look great I think it looks great I think you look great I think you look great I think we both look great and check this out I had so many people whining about the uh the plosives that I have installed a pop filter so the audio should actually be better this week too now I did run around before the show and try to find my arm mount um so that we could have a suspension mount for the microphone for now we're settling with a folded up t-shirt under it but but that'll come that'll come eventually we are finally in what I believe will be the W Show's forever home this computer needs to be reformatted yeah but this equipment actually see we even we even put a sticker on get a desk that's not as gross I kind of like it cuz the background's kind of gross too oh but we can change it I kind of want like screen has far too much real estate as well yeah okay yeah we can tweak things my head gets chopped off by the logo that was always me you just your head got chopped off my head was my head always had the logo on it really yeah couch oh yeah I totally did that seems silly yeah I don't know well either way we shouldn't probably have the screen taking up that more space Oh Why were these rejected but it's all right reason too boring who who determines whether news is boring or not that's pretty boring I'm doing that you know what you're boring you're boring wow okay sponsors linda.com a huge shout out to linda.com for sponsoring the W show um and you know what this actually is only semi- related to linda.com um but my wife was talking to me because I actually brought this up on the W show it's something I talk to my wife about a fair bit and that is limiting screen time for my kids okay um and she kind of goes well hold on a second like my son actually he's three and he is almost reading like he can actually read fairly simple words that he's never seen before yes okay so at his pre- preschool orientation the teacher said that she had a student once that knew the entire alphabet so my son has known the entire alphabet and all of the phonetic letters of the and and all the phonetic sounds of the letters since he was two and that is a in huge part thanks to YouTube YouTube is a great teaching tool and I like to sleep in I was going to say like M mind games on the DS or um there's tons of teaching math blaster going back to my childhood yeah so that's how this ties into Linda anyway so I'm I'm getting there so she basically goes well hold on a second so like you talk a lot about the importance of programming and 3D modeling skills in the new world and I go yes and she goes well so what are you just going to stunt his growth and I kind of go no one he's three and I really think three-year-olds don't necessarily need to be working on those skills yet he could start when he's four or five or six I think at the age he's at right now he needs to learn other things like my my son doesn't have trouble sitting still I don't need him to learn how to sit still it's actually like he's like military trained he's it's really impressive if you're like you know little man sit there do this for a bit he goes he sits he does to then unlock him yeah so I I want him working on you know going to stay in play which is a local program where you just go and like run around and throw balls with other kids and and stuff like that those are the skills that he needs to work on right now and and it's one of those things where there is no hard and fast rule you have to tailor the approach depending on the kid and I don't think he needs a ton of screen time right now period but that doesn't mean that I don't want him because he's going to he's going to hit kindergarten already knowing probably up to multiplication and division like he's a smart kid and so kindergarten is going to be a super duper waste of his time so when he comes home I don't expect him to do his you know yellow plus blue equals green homework that's stupid he's he knows that stuff already um I expect him to be working on computer skills yeah and honestly I have fallen behind I have spent the last 10 years of my life working on product management and business and uh online content creation and it's not like I don't have technology skills but Luke can attest to this I am embarrassing when it comes to any kind of programming like I can barely bold and unbold something yeah in a text editor okay I can but barely um like I'm can't claim much either but yeah but you went to school for it at least like you know yeah but like the games changed a bit and like a lot of what I went to school for where I like wasn't working full-time with you and not really going to school as much as I should have maybe been um was a little bit more Antiquated stuff that no one's really using anymore so I do want him working on that stuff and it's a great opportunity this is one of the things that a lot of parents do is it's like this is my second crack at learning this stuff with my kids cuz it'll keep us talking the same language and it'll be an opportunity for me to bond with my kid which I have to do anyway and pick up some new skills while I'm at it so this finally ties in to linda.com a great resource for learning things online whether it's programming or uh video editing skills or what's cool about this is say say you were deciding to give your kid x amount of time to learn whatever he wants but he has to learn something on the computer he could go on Linda and look up so much stuff yep and go on his own pace and do whatever he could download them onto his phone or whatever he wanted watch it or he could even do the like kitty boo version you know kids first 3D modeling program and if I'm trying to follow along with him I'll have a deep enough understanding that I can help him with these things as well like that's what I really want because I look at the curriculum at least here in Canada anyway and it seems like we're really falling behind you know there's nothing in the news about Canadian schools looking at introducing programming um to young kids and and it and it feels like this is the kind of thing that they did a good job with our generation I learned how to use a spreadsheet and how to use you know office applications and how to use a printer like skills that we take for granted now not because they happened by Magic but because they freaking covered it we had access to the equipment like my wife was like oh this school is getting a 3D printer seems expensive I'm like well yeah how much do you think the computer lab cost it your element school so much right because sponsoring entire schools at that point I know and there's and and that is a thing but that doesn't mean they didn't spend anything on it it doesn't mean they didn't spend the resources on hiring or training the teachers to be to be covering this stuff and did they do a perfect job no but it's better than nothing and at least you like Inspire the kids and then they can go home or go somewhere else and learn from there cuz like I know a lot of people that as long as they're introduced to a topic if they're truly that interested they can go the rest of the way and they kind of have to yeah and that's how you're going to get really good at anything so anyway linda.com is going to be my tool to keep in touch I guess with with what my kids are up to it starts at only $25 a month and you can get a 10-day free trial at linda.com when show you can learn all kinds of great stuff and I guess that's that's pretty much all I have to say about that that was the longest sponsor spot we've ever done what are you doing the watermark is gone oh oh yes the watermark is gone during the spor SP spots that's so weird cuz I didn't put it in so learn to deal our second sponsor today is one that I sincerely hope I get to experience with my kids someday well not not both of them well um I guess there are things that girls can shave but like their legs like their legs I but in the context of my children I really don't like I'm not going it's a fatherson thing shaving the face I got it it's nothing to do with daughters if they're going to shave their legs they I don't they learn that on their own oh no they learn that kind of crap with their girlfriends right I don't why why are you asking me I don't know like I would ask the ladies in the audience to tell me like you know their mom I don't know do mom and daughter get together and like shave their legs you can show her how to shave like her Shin Shin wear shorts yeah I don't know man um anyway way without getting into too much I wouldn't be surprised if it's like hey mom my my dress is catching on my shin hair I don't know dress my do you even know any females oh no not really my dress is catching on my shin hair not really no I don't let's move on can we update Harry Potter's uh speech bubble my probably we need like a Ron Weasley it's not a dress it's a robe or like a Hermione we should we should get the whole team and just speech bubble all of them and they can just mock me all the time they're expensive really that was like 60 bucks yeah it was completely unreasonable it's just cardboard I know it's probably a licensing thing though like probably $30 as it goes toing yeah that's definitely the movie asset yes thing like that's on a poster somewhere so anyway these are the worst sponsor spots we've ever done but or the best whatever the point is Dollar Shave Club I want to use Dollar Shave Club razors to shave with my son because they're high quality they're affordable and they ship them directly to your door once a month you know what Dollar Shave Club needs okay okay okay this is a suggestion I hope Dollar Shave Club is watching this because they've got a lot of great products they've got the razors they've got the After Shave they've got the um they've got the shav butter uh and they've got the one wipe Charlies so you can clean up the look of your face you can clean up the smell of your face you can clean up both the look and smell of your butthole but what you can't what you can't maintain with Dollar Shave Club and what I would argue is just as important if not more so to have delivered monthly your armpits Dollar Shave Club needs to add deodorant to their Arsenal because there should be no no excuse for smelling bad and that's what Dollar Shave Club is all about you don't have to leave the house to look like you're presentable enough to leave the house they you know one wipe Charlies yes they need to make it like one armpit D smeller Charlie that could even work if you keep it in the car or something and then you're like crap I forgot yes You' be like all right well this date isn't going to fail I got this like a sponge bath Charlie or something like that anyway the point is dollarshaveclub.com join the club if you always want to look presentable and always shave with a fresh razor to so you can do a good job and all that all that kind of stuff and it's affordable and they deliver it to your house and stuff all right so we've got probably a fair bit more to talk about on the show here today even though technically like it's quarter after 6 but we did start pretty late not like I have anything to do this is a pretty big deal it's okay keep going that's not really funny um oh just keep going so I've had a lot of comments and or I've seen a lot of comments about people calling acitech remember they were the original lclc the lowcost liquid cooler the best name before yeah I know before they partnered with everyone Under the Sun uh you know Corsair and uh um and zxt and like all these guys to co-brand their lclc product and I've had a lot of people running around calling acitech a patent troll for protecting their intellectual property in the US their idea their patent of putting a pump on a CPU block this is not trolling so it has now been upheld they got pretty roughly ripped off they did like a lot they did and and it didn't happen right away but now that it's happening they are pretty aggressively going after first it was coolit and now it is Cooler Master and they are seeking actually uh first it was uh first it was coolit then it was swifttech and now it's Cooler Master or whatever the order it happened in I don't care so they are seeking damages for people ripping off their idea and their design and now it has been confirmed so not just once but twice at isch has won their patent infringement case against CMI a subsidiary of Cooler Master so the first time around they were awarded a 14.5 % royalty rate on every infringing Cooler Master product being sold CMI demanded a judgment as a matter of Law and a new trial and they have now been awarded enhanced damages of 25.3 75% per unit so for all revenues on infringing products starting January 1st 2015 it is still appealable by CMI but I really got to wonder if they're going to go back for more at this point do I like that this patent doesn't allow anyone to put a pump on a block and this isn't the US to be clear like in Canada these products are still for sale um do I like that not really it does stifle Innovation do I believe that there was a ton of innovation to be done in the all-in-one liquid cooler not really the performance hasn't really changed dramatically in The Last 5 Years how big is your radiator if we had a product that worked fine and was a reasonable price and acitech was selling it and they were making their margin and corser was rebranding it and they were making their margin and and we had an ecosystem that kind of worked and it was you know the consumers were happy to pay that price um does anyone benefit from someone coming in and doing something very similar uh and infringing someone else's patent I don't I I don't know that that is getting into some pretty uh that is getting and like to be clear like there is there is sort of there is similar and then there is very similar and I can't find the link now unfortunately but uh I saw an internal shot of uh one of cooler Masters uh CPU block SL pump combo units and Ace text and wow is the construction really close because the reality of it is in software you can go closed Source okay in uh chip design you can not really show people you know how it all how it's all working you can hide a lot of Special Sauce but physical products patents are the only thing that protects it it's the only thing that prevents you know someone from saying oh hey that's pretty cool I'll just make that exact thing yeah yay now I have it and also it's cheaper because I didn't have to do any R&D work I didn't have to lay the groundwork for the acceptance of this product because that was a real thing I was around when the lclc first launched I was one of the first people to order them and not order one personally but to order them for stock I sat in the NC warehouse for days and took bulk orders of LCL LC's and and repackaged them into boxes I had to like cut the packing material to size I had to I had to baggie all the mounting screws cuz it was it was designed for oems and system integrators and I I turned the lclc into a retail product before anyone else I was there and I know that the beginning wasn't smooth it wasn't always as simple as hey we'll bring this product to Market and a bajillion people will buy it asch invested in making this a viable product category and Cooler Master didn't at least not then and not certainly not to the same extent so I get it um but I mean it does it does suck that you know it's like competition is good and I'm not saying competition is ever bad I I'm just saying there's another side to the coin and it does look like the court was right in this case I do not consider acch to be a patent troll especially because the technology that they're patenting is something that they're actively selling and have as far as I've been able to tell been somewhat reasonable about so it's not like you can't buy it they're not just it's not like that that happened to Puget systems where some guy yeah wow some guy patented something to do with mineral oil submers submersion computers and then basically prevented pet systems from being able to sell their kit right around the time that we did our mineral oil build blog that was because that company is not selling it it was not a viable business idea that they had in the first place they went under and now they're just sitting around being a patent troll as being a troll literally one person like no one else was doing this and it was a very small passion project thing they weren't really Mak money money no like I like man the call that I had with was so depressing he was just like yeah so bad news we your last video is going up that's cool that's great we actually cannot sell these anymore so yeah rip like you know this is something we've been working on for like eight years or whatever just cuz we think done a really good job on it they're the reason why I got into it I saw one of their really early systems possibly their first one at PA way back in the day and was like what the hell is that I even remember very specifically grabbing the display cable and tracing it with my hand to like make sure that it was actually doing what I thought it was because I didn't believe it at all and then talk to the dude for like a while and then was totally super interested and then went did my own thing and like yeah so I'm pretty buddies with them a million a million views on uh on YouTube of your rig that you built based on that encounter yeah yeah 1.1 million there it is so this is for those of you who haven't seen it oh no sorry no 1.1 million is our project yeah yeah um the poor yeah of course that's going to be the uh that's going to be the one um so no but still that's almost a million views and that's back in the day too so this is Luke's rig that he built based on that cool encounter with uh P buy like the same fish tank that they did I found it at freaking PetSmart near my parents house like this was super cool and like hella inspired by them I just couldn't pay the uh import duties over the Border yeah it is expensive yeah so so like it's it's a lot of exactly what they did to be completely honest um yeah I so yeah it's it's lame for anyone who whose name is Cooler Master yep um you know but let's see yeah this is this is kind of scary it could impact the fury X yeah uh because those are using in an infringing design with the pump and block integrated so it's going to be an interesting little bit uh doesn't look like ek's new design infringes on it because it integrates the pump into the radiator which hurts case compatibility so I can understand why not everyone does it but there you go all right next up this is going to be cool for the uh for the film equipment Buffs Red's new Raven camera will start at $6,000 and shoot 4K up to 120 frames per second now I'm going to run through a few things here that are pretty to so it uses the dragon sensor so this is by far the lowest cost you've been able to get at a dragon sensor um it's available with an EF Mount so you can use your Canon lenses cool it takes Mini Mags which are their um their proprietary media very expensive which I guess is leading into how things are starting for things it has a nice lightweight construction it's it's relatively small the uh it's got the same body as the weapon all the weapon modules work it has built-in Wi-Fi it has a built-in microphone which is useful for audio syncing if nothing else even if it's not going to be like a good quality one but this uh this no Film School sub headline here is the gotcha here while the body is $6,000 the way that red sells their bodies and I'm going to see if I can find a picture of the body here and that yeah there it is the way that red sells their bodies is with nothing on it this has no display it has no uh actual on camera buttons to control it it has no um XLR audio input I kind of love it like it's just so absurd it love it nothing it is and for someone like Brandon who really loves doing these really intricate configurations of things I'm sure he would love that yes but there are certain things that should really be on the camera no I'm not trying to get into his head buying a red don't about that yeah well I don't think I don't think Brandon even wants one hey Brandon do you even want a raven not our he says not for our stuff cuz there's a lot there's a lot of there's a lot of issues like it's it's cool that it can record um prores which is which is awesome but there's the fact that you're locked into this proprietary media the fact that once you've bought into the red ecosystem you've got all these accessories and like batteries and all this stuff that's just straight up not useful for other things necessarily um and it looks like it's going to cost you at least 10 grand to get started as opposed to six grand and and realistically if you want to add some of the modules that you're probably going to need um you're looking at closer to $155,000 so it's it's not actually that competitive with some of the newer cameras out from the likes of uh of Sony for example red but it's red uh but it's red and it's the cheapest we've seen from them yet for a flagship sensor like that is an impressive sensor I think it's something like 15 and a half stops of dynamic range I want to say and like sorry 16 thank you Brandon when your when your storage device gets full you can ask if anyone has any spare mags okay I know you don't know about camera stuff and that's fine but zip it what no that's they're called Mini Mags I know I know I literally said an accurate statement I know but you're just trolling me yes I didn't even say anything wrong you're a dick so this is cool it does 1080p at up to 240 frames per second so what I like about this camera is that at least this starts to put some heat on the other guys to come up with a competitor for the fs700 we've had an fs700 for almost three years now yeah and there is still literally nothing else that is an obvious direct successor to that camera because there are other ones like the a7r series that do really great low light um there's other there's the oh man there's there's cameras with better on camera storage now that's a big thing uh cfast is the new industry standard and is going to be way better than the fs700 only has SD cards you have to have an external recorder to use ssds um there's stuff like way more stops of dynamic range and this is happening from Black Magic from Sony from from a lot of different but the fs700 is is has been almost unique in its ability to record 240 FPS slow-mo now continuously with the third party external recorder and just for a lot of the just the balance of features that it has has been difficult to touch for a long time and uh it's it's finally happening and I hope this continues to light fires under the butts of uh of the other camera makers out there speaking of other camera makers black magic is send us an Ursa mini and Brandon will be doing for the first time a camera review so stay tuned for that because uh I know he is pretty stoked on it he's I'm I believe he's going to do a great job I believe in you Brandon um man there's a lot of stuff that I would really like to do pretty quickly here um I don't know did you send out a tweet I think around five I want to say around five oh uh why don't we just do everything left as like rapid fire topics it's okay so here do you want to do the first one here I've read nothing okay AMD preparing dual GPU Radeon R9 Fury X2 world's fastest graphics card so uh original article there sorry I have two mice in front of me so it's hard to remember which is which you know how I'm always kind of salty about SLI or Crossfire on the show yes you know how I recently started uh sing 980s yeah did you know the day that I hooked that up I had a huge drawn out problem that was unfixable for 24 hours was it related to SLI I hooked my 980s together just before a stream started playing games and stuff and was like okay cool this was my 24-hour charity stream started playing games everything worked fine I was performing really well I was like great this is awesome everything's working maybe maybe I'm too salty about this stuff I remember specifically thinking maybe I'm too hard on SLI and it is better now and Crossfire not while you're streaming not really a thing has a huge problem with it so tons of games I couldn't properly play rip and the thing was I was doing a 24-hour charity stream I know total biscuit runs s does he live stream while he's running SLI I don't know a lot of the guys that maybe I was doing something wrong I know a lot of the guys seus I don't know if he has lies okay interesting I was apparently people were talking apparently I don't I don't know there's there's might be ways around it there might be I don't know all I know was it was a problem for me and I couldn't change or fix those things because I couldn't stop or restart the stream right I was doing a 24-hour charity stream so there might have been some fix that I could have ran uh something I don't know and we've run into some other dual GP related issues too um without giving away anything I will say no I can't give away no no no no no don't say anything don't say anything about it a lot of these guys are using capture boxes that are then streaming right right so it wouldn't matter which is an option yeah and then it wouldn't matter um okay well actually one thing I can say about it though is an issue that I have particularly with amd's implementation of Crossfire is that you actually can't turn it off on a dual GPU card you can't just you can't just turn it off there is a tool I forget what it's called Catalyst Pro or radon Pro or something like that where I think you can force it off but even that is not necessarily a perfect solution uh Seagate has come out and said this actually happened a couple of weeks ago but I I just liked it so much that I wanted to do it ssds will never match the per gigabyte costs of hard drives okay well we'll see um so he's saying something something dollar per gigabyte in the upper to 20 to one and something um hard drives match the performance of ssds no they won't but that's not the point necessarily wow um so interest yeah so I guess there's not really much else to say about that I just wanted to I just wanted to document that that was said as thoroughly as possible because statement yeah much confident Oculus VR is getting Twitch streaming soon what Netflix today uh and I believe this article is from yesterday so yesterday um so yeah they're going to set up like check this out you're going to have like a cool this is is actually Hulu but you're going to have like a cool little theater you can sit in and it'll be like a virtual theater experience that is some ba stuff right there so Oculus owners have a lot to look forward to when they become Oculus owners yeah um 4chan was sold to the creator of two channel so uh in in in a series of events that was completely unsurprising to everyone uh forchan got attacked through like an imer exploit and like because the forchan community like the thing happened DS all the things yeah um so there you go uh foran was apparently struggling to be profitable even though they tried a subscription offering and minor advertising and all that kind of stuff so I get it uh Nintendo joins the Kronos Group ads running right now somewhere on our stream oh it's probably on one of the sites that we're loading so let me kill them all it better not be twitch it is not twitch I'm killing all the ads there we go all right Nintendo has joined Kronos group as a contributor member so these are was like a pretty lwd ad actually oh really yeah oh sorry some Team America okay well let's move on um so these are the guys that are maintaining open GL and Vulcan which valve has uh gone all fighting words about and said direct X12 doesn't matter unless you're like deeply into your direct X12 game development now you should just probably never touch it and you should just go Vulcan because directx12 doesn't matter and they have some very good points about uh directx12 being Windows 10 exclusive which was such a mistake I understand that they would have had to do a bunch of work but like oh and I understand that Windows 10 is a free upgrade for seven and eight owners but like Vulcan is going to work uh across a lot of different platforms not even just windows so uh would you roll back would I roll back to Windows 7 from 10 I need to not lean backwards yeah would you roll back to Windows 7 and use Vulcan no because you can use Vulcan on 10 I know I know but would you rather use seven no okay no I I I actually like 10 I like the new start menu yeah new start menu is actually great I actually really like the new start menu um so anyway Nintendo joined which is cool I guess uh blah blah blah blah blah blah uh this is from wfx an Oregon couple trying to resolve a $2 million Verizon cell phone bill lol uh what else we got um this is this is really funny the iPhone 6s put through its Paces in geekbench uh the dual core 6s obliterates the Galaxy S6 Note 5 and other top Android phones in performance testing apparently and we've even got some folks running around saying how it's amazing how comparable it is to the 2015 MacBook actually what's amazing is how the 2015 MacBook manages to run at literally half the performance that it could if it wasn't thermal throttling all over the place yes I mean it is still amazing but like the fact that the MacBook is essentially a tablet in terms of the form factor like in terms of where they actually stuffed the computer okay so so think about that for a second the fact that Apple has been releasing tablets that perform you know somewhat better than their phones for years now that are also tablets and also in that form factor and the fact that the MacBook is performing literally half as well as that Intel chip is capable of because it's not adequately cooled so no yes the iPhone 6s does look like a whiz Banger of a performer and a and a wicked phone upgrade a whiz Banger of a performer whatever um but that the fact that it's on par with the MacBook is not um the fact that the Mac it has nothing to do with the iPhone 6s being amazing it has to do with the MacBook kind of being a dog so just throwing that out there you guys I have Doom Gloom news oh we're ready is it oh kind of ready okay um all right so should we do this on W show or should we do this as kind of a somber Afterparty and tell people from the wow to stick around it's up to you okay let's let's end the W show and we'll be back very shortly stick around especially if you're a member of the lus tech tips Forum a we were doing so well sh uh is it even thereuh technical difficulties over the last few weeks um as you guys have probably noticed from week to week over the last well probably six to eight weeks we've been very yeah we've been very much closer to three actually but that's fair you know uh we've been very much under construction for the last little while the W show has actually been physically moving around from week to week quite frequently this is incredible twitch has now implemented a feature where the ad that plays before the stream cannot be paused or muted that is fantastic thank you twitch for that wow anyway thanks for like basically making everyone install ad block yeah anyway moving on so we've been very much under construction and you'll probably notice a huge difference between the way we have it set up this week and the way we had it set up last week hopefully you guys like it and if you don't the people in the pre-show know what I think of that because I personally think it looks great uh there's still a few things that we're going to tweak like the positions of things on the shelves and like I want to get an actual shock mount for this microphone instead of just having it sitting on a folded up shirt can it just be like a little coil that shocks people whenever they try to move it no no because if we're going to take it really literally shock mount could have a some pretty scary sorts of meanings there uh anyway we've got a great show for you guys today uh Pebble inro yeah oh there's two different definitions of shock that are both that both work well that was a multi multi-level dirty sort of toilet humor joke I think I actually thought of the second one I mean are sex jokes really toilet humor unless you have sex on a toilet then is not recommended but possible but possible it's like no really I got pregnant from the toilet seat also there was like another there so what is this show about Pebble toilet seats has introduced their first round Smartwatch what an innovation we should just actually host a w show only about toilet seats no we shouldn't Pat Volkswagen oh speaking of things that are in the toilet Volkswagen stock uh they've been ordered to recall 500,000 cars that's the initial news that broke uh but it's going deeper than that so we're going to be discussing that on the show today Apple to release the D Jack um which I think I have that patented is almost as almost as almost as dirty as it sounds and North America is straight up out of ipv4 addresses for real this time so uh stay tuned guys it's going to be a great show you guys see how smooth that was it worked that's what happens when I actually set aside like an hour before the show to set up and then we start start like 40 minutes late formatted the system no we still need to format the system but everything else about it is set up this system is so freaking bored like oh here you know what no no no no I'm going to show show them the thing yeah yeah no no I'll okay okay so guys guys this this is going to be good hold on let me just make sure there's no like you know nothing that I can be sued for on screen here you guys are going to love this though okay so add screen capture for you let's do the whole screen here all right here we go here we go buddies this is some good stuff right here so so check check this out just awesome what is what is that what even is that and where did they go where are they and then they're going to come back at some point and there's like this one missing yeah and like what is this this is nothing it's nothing it's just it's just nothing and uh that's just that's just one of the many completely broke dick things oh yeah about this windows installed and that's just like weird there's ones that are really bad well the thing is is I think when you get enough blue screens on a system something just starts bit rot whatever yeah things happen things things things just Decay and this is one decayed it's not bit rot well Decay okay well okay whatever this is a broken windows install it takes forever to boot up on an SSD and it actually has like nothing installed on it like webcam drivers uh video chat when you blue screen like two times every single time you run the computer yeah then you're basically asking asking for trouble but but no no the the stream's not going to blue screen because uh we are running off you sted on the blue screen I know because it's so scary I wasn't sure if I should say it or not do we have wood is this even real wood I don't know it's MDF it's worth it knock on MDF um so because the black magic cards that cause the stream to blue screen are both working now I did Luke's bringing his wood over his massive wood all right so we're good we're good um people are like bet the ram is bad no it has nothing to do with bad Ram it has to do with the drivers for our black magic capture cards not liking anything uh well no more specifically not liking themselves and their life um so should we should we like do a show I guess I guess I guess we should do a show all right so our first topic is uh oh this is interesting hold on wait yes I need the other Mouse though I got this lineus screen boom yay things are working today it's not going to be that day uh so a new face for Pebble it started with a text seven years ago something something etc etc all right let's just uh let's just pop this baby up okay whatever show us the watch man okay so we had Square watches before look at that it's amazing it's actually kind of rounded so I don't know how uh I don't know if it's really strictly speaking square but this is it the pebble time round oh it keeps going back to he looks like me but with fuzzy hair you know you actually have like okay I don't want you to take this the wrong way you're going to say You're really generic face cuz everyone sends me Twitter things you look like this dude and I'm like a lot of the time I I can kind of see it I know you have like kind of that I never thought that until I got this job and then everyone just tells me that I look like everyone yeah yeah like I can kind of see it you're like well you're kind of the blue-eyed blond haired like guy with kind of the rugged sort of face I don't want to okay well no I'll say ruggedly handsome face okay okay with the rugged face usually looks like someone just drove a truck over your face yeah it's like you know man it's rugged your face looks like it could go through a war yeah your face looks like it could be a tire um probably like IP67 so there we go this is the pebble time round basically it's got the same processing on board as the steel it is hyper hyper thin it is round and they have an SDK out for app Developers to allow them to convert their applications to the round face which is which is the only real difference cuz they haven't changed a bunch of the other Hardware what they did do is they nerfed the battery life pretty hardcore uh what's up why what do you mean why I didn't know that that sucks because it's thin now I don't care I was talking to someone the other day this is probably a bad idea because I'm talking to people I'm going to well yes but I'm going to say an idea that I want to have for a video oh okay but I don't know if you'd let me do it anyways but I want to do um a review of modern phones and during the review I want the phone that's in my hand to constantly change the whole time and I want it to be like it has a great screen it'll run all the apps you want just fine it run all your games just fine uh it's nice and thin the buttons are really good the headphone jack works really well the speakers are kind of met and it's going to be way too easy to block them and they're not in the right spot transfer speeds at USB 2 over wire um like all this kind of stuff and then but the batter's thanks for watching have a good time I want to do that video so bad because honestly it's pretty accurate for like everything I think we could do that but you know what the thing about the round is that you can get another day of battery life oh yeah oh yeah it's so thin that I don't care anymore and that happened a long time ago and it could be thicker but it kind of did yeah it kind of did um there's some good news though you can get days worth of battery in 15 minutes however my issue with Pebble continues to be that they use a proprietary charger so the the problem is not how long it takes to charge the problem is that I have to actually be where my charging cable is which for me is on my nightstand so if I'm traveling or whatever the fact that I can charge it up for a day worth of battery and 15 minutes uh except that I don't have my cable is actually not that not that helpful and the fact that they keep changing the cable all the time um like every generation they just change the cable need to learn from uh who is it who does it really PlayStation I think it's PlayStation's cable has like never changed yeah but the compatibility is broken oh yeah that's worse I actually didn't know that so when it comes to like seven deadly sins okay when we talk when we talk about when we talk about cables because this is something people talked about a lot with Intel lga775 so this was a time when AMD was changing their CPU socket it seemed like every year okay so we had socket a okay 462 then we got socket 940 on the Enthusiast platform for FX which was essentially the server socket but like there was like two CPUs and someone's going to correct me I don't care uh the point I think we got the FX 51 and 53 and maybe 55 for that socket but it's it's it's not the point so then we got soet at 754 at the same time that was like single Channel memory and the consumer version and then both of those went away on the consumer except 940 was still there on the server and then we got 939 on the desktop and then we went from 939 to I want to say A2 and then we got am2 plus and am3 so AMD has done this weird like like Anyway this was back in the in the 939 to am 2 days and everyone was criticizing AMD going they keep changing their CPU socket I have no upgrade path Intel's had lga775 for like 5 years or however long they had it the problem is that the intercompatibility from one 775 board to another 775 chip across Generations was terrible like it was awful it changed as often or more as amd's socket did at least with AMD it was clear you buy a 939 chip you put in a 939 socket it works with Intel you buy a 775 chip you plug it in and you cross your fingers and your toes and you pray to whatever day it is you believe in and maybe it'll turn on and a lot of the time the compatibility is more complicated than that cuz maybe even if it doesn't turn on you can like I don't know find a buddy who has a last gen chip and put that in and Flash the BIOS and then maybe the new chip will work but maybe like not quite as optimally come on so that was my favorite part was hunting for someone who had the right chip so you could do a bio something just horrible so anyway that still a complaint however one thing I will say about this super slim design that that I do think has a value is my wife looked at it immediately said oh that's way better so I have been critical but how long does it they hit a very good thinness with that I will agree but how long does it last I think it's like two to three days or something like that okay so that's not too bad yeah so it's still not a one day battery um give me just a like I I am I am forgetting how long it's yeah there you go two B two day battery life so it's still better than what you're going to get out of an Apple Watch and I've been really critical of other Smartwatch makers pretty much everyone but Apple for not making like a properly functional Smartwatch cuz there have been devices you say everyone but Apple yeah I think the Apple watch looks great on a on a lady's wrist oh I heard something else no you're good yeah um where was I going with this right so I've been really critical of everyone but Apple for not making a properly functional Smartwatch that's actually not going to look weird on my wife um so now that pebble's doing it I can't rip into them for reducing the battery capacity because you have to make trade-offs and I know there have existed smart watches and wearable devices that are like fashion accessories but the functionality on them is so bad it's like it's like you know there's it all comes down to what sort of margin a company is used to making okay so when uh you know when a computer company comes out with a a new like a new uh you know smart accessory and it's priced at X you're going to have like you know let's say why amount of functionality built into it because they're reserving this much for them to just make money yeah and you need to pay other people like Distributors and the guy that actually sells it to you when a shoe company comes in and makes a smart accessory their expectation for how much is left over at the end is much higher so you get like this crummy functionality with a rubbish screen sorry oh where' the overlay go that's weird what the watermark PNG has disappeared that's fine I can I can live I can I can work with that um so they're going to have a certain expectation for how much margin that they're making and that is exactly the problem is that these companies are going to think that they should be making you know 200% a watch clothing rates yeah clothing clothing jewelry fashion brands um are pretty much up their own butts in terms of what they think that their vision is worth um and they can they tend to kind of ignore the the Practical stuff yeah so like perfume and cologne and all that kind like a lot of things in those categories are like that I think he just said uh clothing fashion and jewelry because those are the companies that are kind of getting into SmartWatches now yes exactly uh so I don't know where our normal lower third is since we haven't changed it in forever I cannot find it no why is my life sad I really need to reformat this computer don't let me run the show next week until this computer is formatted because run the show then hey that's not a nice thing to say all right Fade Away there we go and then I think there's like I don't even know where the upper right corner thing is like what what where is that does anyone does anyone know I don't think anyone knows may just called Watermark why don't you just use the search was it in Watermark I don't know was there one called Watermark General assets when Watermark top left.png yay hey look at that that's not a technical difficulty is it is that a strike I think so do we have a three strikes rule no can we have a six strikes rule 15 we need a lot of strikes here yeah all right three is not going to cut it six six may be okay six sounds about good all right so anyway that uh that watch is aiming to ship somewhere in the time frame of November 10th and honestly I'm considering buying one I'll pick one up for the white because she works in a pharmacy and in the pharmacy they have like a no phones rule but would certainly be nice to to be you're just circumventing outdated policies yes so it would be nice to and it like it's funny because like around here we're a very techsavvy employer at Linus Media Group like if people are on their phones at work I'm not giving them a hard time about it because I understand that your phone is like pretty much your life unless their job function really has nothing to do with their phone and they're on it a lot because I consider things like tweeting while you're at the office about the things that we're doing I consider that sort of work so but but in a pharmacy I also understand this you can't really call it an outdated policy I can't think of any reason why a technician is counting pills outdated because it didn't include smartw watches oh I see what you mean ah other form of outd right so so anyway the point is if there's an emergency with the kids or whatever it's nice to be able to get through to her even if she can't message me back I don't expect her to use things like you know voice response functionality because she's also the manager so the the harder she tries to circumvent the rules the more terrible that looks but it's nice to be able to you know just be like hey this or whatever hey can you pick up something she works at Costco so like there's usually something I want her to buy I just ate two bags of those awesome dried mangoes please get me two more bags actually make it three it's a Friday it's this Friday make it five yeah yeah oh it's been a rough day do you want to just do that nope okay apparently not you're putting it off apparently for now because something's not working great so yeah it's like the the most minor of all the things and it's the one it's not working but it kind of needs to be set up for everything to go smoothly right everything will go without it but not smoothly so this has been huge news over the last week uh VW was basically found to be cheating on their us emission standards tests the cars were detecting if they were being tested and they were reducing their output by as much as 40 times or they were outputting 140th uh during testing and then they were ramping it up 40 times on the road this is on their diesel cars and not all of them but it was ones with their four-cylinder diesel engine and so basically what this means is the car performed better for owners yeah which it depends how you define performed better right it felt peier when you pressed the gas pedal yes yeah um but but they were turning off their Emissions Control Systems in order to achieve this so uh their shares have dropped oh this is this is like being updated in like real time their shares have dropped approximately 35% so if you believe that Volkswagen is going to pull out of this um okay with all the usual disclaimers I don't know anyone who works at Volkswagen lonus Media Group has never collaborated with Volkswagen um I do not own any shares in Volkswagen I don't own any shares in anything so take this as the in what oh well in this company no no like publicly traded publicly traded shares like ownes on a stock market I don't own any shares of any publicly traded companies okay so take this for the ignorance that it is if you believe that Volkswagen will recover now might be a nice time to buy because that strategy has worked for many people in the past however the difference between bad news about a product and bad news about the potential 18 billion fine that Volkswagen could be paying in the us alone so we're talking $37,500 per affected vehicle of which there are 500,000 Which is higher than the value than a whole bunch of those that were recalled um so so so so so factor that in now the the bad news gets worse uh Volkswagen is being investigated in other territories as well and Canada being Canada will probably just do the exact same thing that the states did and it's not just Volkswagen either so this is great uh the BMW x3x Drive 20D exceeds European standards by a shocking 11 times the only reason that 11 times doesn't sound that bad in this context is that Volkswagen was exceeding the US standards by 40 times so yeah BMW has issued a denial of any manipulation saying there's no difference in the treatment of exhaust emissions whether they are on test rollers or on the road although VW has admitted it their CEO has stepped down and uh they are in for some serious hot water apparently there's two water marks now uh oh oh oh that's kind of interesting uh I don't know which is which oh wow there's two lower thirs what is happening I don't know I hate this pick the prettier one okay I this is not a second strike this is the same issue they just like disappeared for a little while I don't know what's happening but it's fine now shut up all of you what especially you anyway BMW's X5 was looked at by the West Virginia University and EPA as part of Investigations into the issue it passed it's important to note that almost every car has higher real world emissions than their laboratory results that's I mean there are so many things that are like that let's talk about you know Wi-Fi speeds hey oh real world nothing to do with lab results do they advertise the uh you know perfect world no overhead test results yes should they be allowed to probably not but is that the world we live in yes yeah um that happens for tons of stuff so the UK government has stated that today they will be launching their own vehicle emissions testing following the US's findings oh so this is very much an emerging story we might even be talking about this again next week but I think what's safe to say at this point in time is that there is one vehicle maker who has nothing to worry about Tesla the the safest way to not exceed your rated emissions is to have no emissions whatsoever didn't they release an ad like trolling them or something is that in here I think they did I don't know if this is actually about that um but yeah there's a Tesla no emissions ad that it's like the best way to pass an emissions test is to or this whole this whole car is an emissions test destroying machine or something I don't remember exactly what it is yeah I don't know if this is actually from Tesla or anything this just looks that's yeah no that's yeah so there there you go so zero emissions uh means they could not possibly get into any kind of hot water here so there you go guys um if you have an affected car there's a forced recall in the US but stay tuned because things are going to get really interesting worldwide over the next I mean this could take months this this could take easily months potentially years to finally be resolved so if we're going to weigh in on stock things my opinion be to not necessarily do it now wait till they get hit by a few more countries yeah but then people might go like oh I should buy now because it's really low and then it's going to go up and then it might not fall as far as it went up people might be might be trying to hold for the long term like yeah we don't know we don't play stocks so literally not at all and I will say that I straight up don't do it because I don't know what I'm doing yep me too all right Apple to Rel release the d uh the original article here is Apple Insider salty and creamy at the same time what the hell that leaves nothing to the imagination uh yeah it does Marmite was salty and creamy that's true that was awful that was really bad Marmite is terrible it's really gross all of our Australian viewers what you're supposed to do is spread it very thinly over toast what is the point and we like lathered it well it's kind of like if you took by the way people have been complaining about this you sit back like this when you're going to talk for a while and then I can't hear it okay my bet when if you took like a massive amount of wow yeah nothing's really that bad uh butter if you took so much butter that it was that thick and put it on top of a pizza it's like well yeah but no one would ever put butter on pizza but no one would ever put marmaid on pizza but some people claim that they would who Dennis was saying he thinks it would be good with Dennis is so weird I know I don't think Dennis is fair in this conversation this is the guy that literally like spits out a banana when he tries to take a bite of a chocolate covered insect that really is not that bad wasn't that bad did you eat one no I have way in the past oh okay yeah little kid party when I was a little kid like it grossed me out because I kind of have a bug phobia so when I crunched into it it was like like it made my whole body go like no I can't CR in chocolate yeah but but like the taste wasn't that bad no and then Marmite I'm sitting here like I folded up my pizza cuz I was trying to get over as fast as possible and then when I bit into it it all squished out onto my tongue at the same time so that was the wrong idea I screwed up um and I'm like basically hurling in the corner meanwhile Dennis is like this is great I I even had to ask him I was like would you put Marmite on it just normally and just eat it and he's like no maybe less yeah less yeah he was like oh well not this much you're me here man uh Marmite yay or nay where were we going with this I don't know we were talk oh we were talking about uh creamy salty things creamy salty things right okay so I want to no I want to I want to I want to throw this to you guys first so we got a straw pull we got a straw pull going here Marmite yay or nay and we should give some context for that we had to have pizza with Marmite For an upcoming Channel super fun so and and dragon's Fury hot sauce yeah that was interesting too I what I'll say about this upcoming Channel super fun is that I literally had to lie down for 10 minutes about an hour after we filmed it to just let my stomach get its crap together so to speak I felt really gross i h oh wow oh no I felt really gross and honestly I think it was more because of the Marmite yeah it was it was it was a terrible experience so let's talk about Apple's new connector now this is funny cuz I am pretty sure that we have straight up talked about this on the show before how like there's going to be a limit to how thin Apple can go because you still need a headphone jack no no this is their new patented plug design uh that uh that that has a a d like profile so basically you're going to take your djack you're going to plug it into your phone receptacle and uh in in theory there should be no issues with adapting the the d-shaped cavity jack to a regular round pair of headphones or adapting your round pair of headphones to a d-shaped jack but I really have to kind of like remember that rumor that Apple was going to convert their phones to use the lightning connector for audio yes um that hasn't happened but this almost feels even stupider because you're basically just forcing people to throw for the sake of Elegance you're forcing a lot of people to use adapters and I know there's going to be the millions of people out there buying Beats and plugging their beats into this with their stupid proprietary closed ecosystem ridiculous thing but um at the same time it really is pretty annoying would you prefer have the lightning connector be taken over anytime you wanted to use headphones or would you you prefer being able to plug two things in and have one of them be a weird proprietor you know what nothing use a 3 and half millim Jack don't make your phone thinner yes yeah your phone is th make your phone thicker enough put more battery please I mean it's one of those things this is this is what drives me crazy the camera bumps just going to be bigger yeah yeah the thinner you go the bigger your camera bump so this is what drives me crazy this is what it takes okay for an Android phone to deliver the experience that I want which is me using it pretty much as much as I want for an entire day and the problem with Android is that its idle power uh management is really bad so poor you take an Android phone with an app load out okay it doesn't count to just take it out of the box and put it down and go haha see it only lost 7% battery today not good enough take an Android phone that actually has apps on it one that you actually use yeah put it aside for like a day and it'll have lost 20 to 30% battery which is terrible my iPad or my iPhone loses like 2% per day I can sit my iPad can sit for two weeks without me touching it and still have like 40% on the batteries it's actually usable by the time I get back to it so I want Apple's battery life management but I also want a legitimately High Capac capacity battery because that's the problem with the iPhone if you know heaven forbid you dare to use it to navigate somewhere it's just instantly dead like I can drain an iPhone in like you know 5 hours 6 hours if I'm using it really heavily like if I'm navigating somewhere and I'm talking to somebody on speaker and like like you can hit it pretty hard you can drain it pretty fast whereas the Droid Turbo because it actually has a massive battery it's not just you know power saving tricks and and and and little like voodoo magic that's going on it actually can be used for a significant portion of the day so I would love for Apple to do like an iPhone 6 endurance or seven endurance or or whatever it takes and I know you could say that the 6 Plus or the 6s plus is kind of the endurance model but I don't want a fablet and I especially don't want a fablet that's extremely difficult to hold on to the way that the iPhone 6 Plus is so anyway this it's not out yet this is just a patent that they're applying for for a headphone jack called the djck um yeah djck it's like what is Elon Musk running Apple now like really um I'd prefer it that way it looks like the D Jack might fit in other phones so it could be yeah like when you look at the shape it looks like it could work oh um interesting so maybe maybe it's okay but uh I don't know like's but you're basically you're going to be buying new headphones and the thing about headphones is I really believe in investing in a great pair of headphones and then using them for a long time because frankly audio technology it's improving I usually swap them out when they like break yeah and that's fine because the HD 600s are still great yep and you could buy 650s or 700s but the 600s are still great um and with imem I would say this is maybe less true like over the last 5 years I don't think there's been a ton of innovation but in the last 20 there's been a lot um but uh and a lot of innovation there is like not even necessarily Innovation but things inline controls ribbon cables nicer nicer fitting things to go on your ears Wireless for example oh speaking of Wireless um I've actually got I might actually oh I never really told jbird that I was thinking of this because I wasn't at the time but this could work they offered to send me the x2s cuz um I don't know if you remember this but I I reviewed the blue buds X loved them I know someone who bought them and then they broke like right out of their warranty period really yep mine are still going strong that's a bummer yeah anyway okay well well at any rate I got slammed for that I was like I don't even know what these are cuz I never yeah don't worry so they reached out about sending over the x2s for review and I was like ah we're like we we don't do that much audio stuff these days like lineus Tech tips is transitioning into more like like a show and there are reviews but we're kind of saving it for for Marquee products oh okay well I mean you guys have probably noticed things like moving Vlog no we're the most hard board tech review site on the planet yeah we only do Motherboard BIOS don't review anything else Motherboard BIOS yeah yeah yeah okay I haven't fired you in a long time that's true but I think that kind of merits it you can't when we're the most hardcore tech review channel on the internet you can't find me wow so anyway I wasn't sure if I was going to do a review so I basically said well you can send them if you want no guarantees and they're like yeah we'll take that we'll roll that die and then I also this was a product that I backed a billion years ago when I was kind of getting into doing imem videos and uh and it's the dash do you remember the dash no okay so this is a battery powered inar right yeah yeah and it's supposed to have like not necessarily great battery life but it's supposed to be like super small so I backed that on like Kickstarter or Indiegogo or whatever ages ago so I could do a head to head cool so maybe I'll do that that should be pretty cool so I can take the original blue Bud X I can take the x2s and I can take the dash and I can play some badminton and it'll be an excuse to bring a camera crew out and get like some wicked cool like slow-mo footage of me playing badminton so I like I like go for that I go for that shot and like the sweat drips off my my forehead can we get like the stupid Glamour Shots oh I think we should yeah hey Brandon would that be fun do you want to come and like hang with me and get some like action footage like slow-mo action footage me playing badminton like testing wireless earbuds well I don't know whenever okay Brandon's down Brandon's down so we're totally doing it um what are we talking about are you ready to do your thing uh no are you ever going to be ready to do your thing yes not on the show today though probably probably I I just gave you like every possible conditional answer but they were actually accurate not ready right now I will be ready at some point probably on this show so our relationship is complicated as your friend I could slap you yep as your Tech employer I can't slap you so wait as your lover I shouldn't slap you but maybe but could if you were into it yeah um so I'm just so I'm slapping myself oh wow say if you wait 4 minutes we won't technically be on work time but we're still on work premises yes so and and I mean we could do stuff anywhere that's true so I gota speaking of which I got to get blinds for my office justes make lunchtime that much better I am finally moving into my office I have set up the mineral oil computer much to Luke's sadness that was this really depressing that was the saddest acknowledgement of anything ever cuz he straight up ass he was like can I have the oil PC for my workstation like right when we built it yeah and then also when we moved in here and probably a few times in between there and so my initial response was maybe we'll use it as like a set piece or something cuz it's super cool looking and then it just sat on the oven in the kitchen Gathering dust and dust sits in the oil and then it can cycle into the system oh for literally months for literally months and then finally he moved in and he asked me again and I was like no I'm using it it and his world was crushed and I could tell and it was good no it wasn't it wasn't good cuz there there were there I don't know it's it's one of those things where it's like the CEO's office I think should have like the show piece technically if we want to go with like new age companies the CEO should probably be on the floor with the other employees because it creates a better more healthy work environment see what you're doing hiding yourself in the top Corner giving yourself a private office is more archaic old forms of running companies not really efficient for today's uh management structures okay which are actually more flat than your vertical structure about putting yourself on the top and maybe naming the company after yourself it's more of an Antiquated system it's not really recommended for starting new companies but I guess you know you could do that so this is the same guy that needs me to build him like a fortress of solit upstairs because he finds having one person or because even though we've been here for months the library isn't ready one person or that one person in in the room with him is is too much I can't focus I need my own room and I need active noise cancelling headphones didn't require my own room wanted to do it in the public library needed noise cancelling headphones Public Library is not ready the library actually is pretty much ready to go it needs to be cleaned yeah been told to not work in there so it needs to be tid up we're almost we're almost ready to go we're almost ready to go in there uh so why don't we move on to an actual news topic here North America is out of ipv4 addresses and I know that you've been tied up on something else and you haven't had a ton of time to uh to dock it up here so why don't I do The quick summary and then you can talk a little bit about the implications of this so there it is for really real this time um there's been an awful lot of crying wolf on this subject over the years you know oh well we're out of the one that can be assigned to the assignment Authority or we're out of the ones that can be pre-allocated except in circumstances where we could allocate some more and no no it is happening and it is time for everyone to start switching to IPv6 now we've actually talked about this on Tech quickie before and the complicated thing here is that ipv4 and IPv6 so ipv4 is that up to 12-digit number okay with periods every usually three digits okay and IPv6 is like alpha numeric and longer and while ipv4 can have something along lines of I believe it's four billion addresses IPv6 can literally have enough addresses for like 340 unilan yeah so it's something along the lines of one followed by 36 zeros so I think that's something along the lines of 2 IPv6 addresses for every Square in of Earth or something like that like it's it's it's ludicrous okay someone's telling me it's more than that so the the point is that we need to switch but the problem is that if your website for example uh Linus medag group.com is not IPv6 then IPv6 clients can have trouble and if your website is not backwards compatible with ipv4 then ipv4 clients can have trouble accessing your IPv6 website they're not they don't talk to each other very well and there are like interposer methods but they suck yeah so there's not honestly a ton that you're going to have to worry about if you're watching this show I can basically guarantee you your router is able to handle IPv6 um just going to kind of leave it at that and there's not really a ton else you to do if again if you're watching this show it's basically a guarantee that your computer is ready for this yes and that your network is ready for this most smartphones are ready for this um the the issue is really on the on the website server side and on the internet service provider side again most of those are going to be fun and there are a few things that you're going to have to learn like um you know if you're working on your Lan you're probably using ipv4 addresses you know 192.168 or 1020 do whatever um so you're probably going to want to switch to IPv6 addresses which means there's going to be a bit of a learning curve there I haven't actually a lot more annoying to remember yes like which sucks way more annoying to remember yep the good news is that if they have a lot of zeros in them you can actually shorten them and you don't have to remember the zeros so that will help a little bit I guess um and and you don't have to deal with subnetting anymore so okay although 255.255.255.0 is pretty not hard to which usually autop populates like every time not that big deal like every time yeah it does and unless you're doing more unless you're kind of like a networking guy or gal you're really not working with anything more complicated than that anyway but it's coming for networking people this might change things up tell me this are we ready for IPv6 uh we might need to change a few things but it won't be a problem at all okay well there you go our like websites and stuff are fine cool yeah like internally if you want to start managing things as IPv6 you'll maybe need to change things right but everything else is fine this is cool I just got confirmation I am getting a review sample of the new Moto 360 yay it looks nice it does look really nice at Austin yeah it's a 60-day unit so I'll have to send it back if I even if I really like it I'll just have to buy one but uh you know it looks nice I think Austin gets to keepy P yeah I'm I'm sure I'm sure he does um it looks nice yeah I know it looks nice but it might be too nice for me um I actually like the kind of sportswatch look of the gatr so I I may not want to switch anyway and I'm really going to have to uh I'm really going to have to look closely at what significant difference there really is from this Android Weare device to another one because as far as I can tell no one has really done with Android Weare what they've done with Android where they try to enhance the experience For Better or For Worse um so to me it really seems like up till now um oh up until now one Android we watch is kind of an Android Weare watch and you know what I probably won't be doing it until after I do the Apple watch again anyway because uh watch OS 2 just dropped and I will be doing an iPhone 6s review so I'll be using those two devices together in the meantime Nick is Nick is giving me updates which is which is totally the most professional thing for the onscreen talent to be doing in the middle of a video podcast but I'm getting close to my thing doesn't the Show look great I think it looks great I think you look great I think you look great I think we both look great and check this out I had so many people whining about the uh the plosives that I have installed a pop filter so the audio should actually be better this week too now I did run around before the show and try to find my arm mount um so that we could have a suspension mount for the microphone for now we're settling with a folded up t-shirt under it but but that'll come that'll come eventually we are finally in what I believe will be the W Show's forever home this computer needs to be reformatted yeah but this equipment actually see we even we even put a sticker on get a desk that's not as gross I kind of like it cuz the background's kind of gross too oh but we can change it I kind of want like screen has far too much real estate as well yeah okay yeah we can tweak things my head gets chopped off by the logo that was always me you just your head got chopped off my head was my head always had the logo on it really yeah couch oh yeah I totally did that seems silly yeah I don't know well either way we shouldn't probably have the screen taking up that more space Oh Why were these rejected but it's all right reason too boring who who determines whether news is boring or not that's pretty boring I'm doing that you know what you're boring you're boring wow okay sponsors linda.com a huge shout out to linda.com for sponsoring the W show um and you know what this actually is only semi- related to linda.com um but my wife was talking to me because I actually brought this up on the W show it's something I talk to my wife about a fair bit and that is limiting screen time for my kids okay um and she kind of goes well hold on a second like my son actually he's three and he is almost reading like he can actually read fairly simple words that he's never seen before yes okay so at his pre- preschool orientation the teacher said that she had a student once that knew the entire alphabet so my son has known the entire alphabet and all of the phonetic letters of the and and all the phonetic sounds of the letters since he was two and that is a in huge part thanks to YouTube YouTube is a great teaching tool and I like to sleep in I was going to say like M mind games on the DS or um there's tons of teaching math blaster going back to my childhood yeah so that's how this ties into Linda anyway so I'm I'm getting there so she basically goes well hold on a second so like you talk a lot about the importance of programming and 3D modeling skills in the new world and I go yes and she goes well so what are you just going to stunt his growth and I kind of go no one he's three and I really think three-year-olds don't necessarily need to be working on those skills yet he could start when he's four or five or six I think at the age he's at right now he needs to learn other things like my my son doesn't have trouble sitting still I don't need him to learn how to sit still it's actually like he's like military trained he's it's really impressive if you're like you know little man sit there do this for a bit he goes he sits he does to then unlock him yeah so I I want him working on you know going to stay in play which is a local program where you just go and like run around and throw balls with other kids and and stuff like that those are the skills that he needs to work on right now and and it's one of those things where there is no hard and fast rule you have to tailor the approach depending on the kid and I don't think he needs a ton of screen time right now period but that doesn't mean that I don't want him because he's going to he's going to hit kindergarten already knowing probably up to multiplication and division like he's a smart kid and so kindergarten is going to be a super duper waste of his time so when he comes home I don't expect him to do his you know yellow plus blue equals green homework that's stupid he's he knows that stuff already um I expect him to be working on computer skills yeah and honestly I have fallen behind I have spent the last 10 years of my life working on product management and business and uh online content creation and it's not like I don't have technology skills but Luke can attest to this I am embarrassing when it comes to any kind of programming like I can barely bold and unbold something yeah in a text editor okay I can but barely um like I'm can't claim much either but yeah but you went to school for it at least like you know yeah but like the games changed a bit and like a lot of what I went to school for where I like wasn't working full-time with you and not really going to school as much as I should have maybe been um was a little bit more Antiquated stuff that no one's really using anymore so I do want him working on that stuff and it's a great opportunity this is one of the things that a lot of parents do is it's like this is my second crack at learning this stuff with my kids cuz it'll keep us talking the same language and it'll be an opportunity for me to bond with my kid which I have to do anyway and pick up some new skills while I'm at it so this finally ties in to linda.com a great resource for learning things online whether it's programming or uh video editing skills or what's cool about this is say say you were deciding to give your kid x amount of time to learn whatever he wants but he has to learn something on the computer he could go on Linda and look up so much stuff yep and go on his own pace and do whatever he could download them onto his phone or whatever he wanted watch it or he could even do the like kitty boo version you know kids first 3D modeling program and if I'm trying to follow along with him I'll have a deep enough understanding that I can help him with these things as well like that's what I really want because I look at the curriculum at least here in Canada anyway and it seems like we're really falling behind you know there's nothing in the news about Canadian schools looking at introducing programming um to young kids and and it and it feels like this is the kind of thing that they did a good job with our generation I learned how to use a spreadsheet and how to use you know office applications and how to use a printer like skills that we take for granted now not because they happened by Magic but because they freaking covered it we had access to the equipment like my wife was like oh this school is getting a 3D printer seems expensive I'm like well yeah how much do you think the computer lab cost it your element school so much right because sponsoring entire schools at that point I know and there's and and that is a thing but that doesn't mean they didn't spend anything on it it doesn't mean they didn't spend the resources on hiring or training the teachers to be to be covering this stuff and did they do a perfect job no but it's better than nothing and at least you like Inspire the kids and then they can go home or go somewhere else and learn from there cuz like I know a lot of people that as long as they're introduced to a topic if they're truly that interested they can go the rest of the way and they kind of have to yeah and that's how you're going to get really good at anything so anyway linda.com is going to be my tool to keep in touch I guess with with what my kids are up to it starts at only $25 a month and you can get a 10-day free trial at linda.com when show you can learn all kinds of great stuff and I guess that's that's pretty much all I have to say about that that was the longest sponsor spot we've ever done what are you doing the watermark is gone oh oh yes the watermark is gone during the spor SP spots that's so weird cuz I didn't put it in so learn to deal our second sponsor today is one that I sincerely hope I get to experience with my kids someday well not not both of them well um I guess there are things that girls can shave but like their legs like their legs I but in the context of my children I really don't like I'm not going it's a fatherson thing shaving the face I got it it's nothing to do with daughters if they're going to shave their legs they I don't they learn that on their own oh no they learn that kind of crap with their girlfriends right I don't why why are you asking me I don't know like I would ask the ladies in the audience to tell me like you know their mom I don't know do mom and daughter get together and like shave their legs you can show her how to shave like her Shin Shin wear shorts yeah I don't know man um anyway way without getting into too much I wouldn't be surprised if it's like hey mom my my dress is catching on my shin hair I don't know dress my do you even know any females oh no not really my dress is catching on my shin hair not really no I don't let's move on can we update Harry Potter's uh speech bubble my probably we need like a Ron Weasley it's not a dress it's a robe or like a Hermione we should we should get the whole team and just speech bubble all of them and they can just mock me all the time they're expensive really that was like 60 bucks yeah it was completely unreasonable it's just cardboard I know it's probably a licensing thing though like probably $30 as it goes toing yeah that's definitely the movie asset yes thing like that's on a poster somewhere so anyway these are the worst sponsor spots we've ever done but or the best whatever the point is Dollar Shave Club I want to use Dollar Shave Club razors to shave with my son because they're high quality they're affordable and they ship them directly to your door once a month you know what Dollar Shave Club needs okay okay okay this is a suggestion I hope Dollar Shave Club is watching this because they've got a lot of great products they've got the razors they've got the After Shave they've got the um they've got the shav butter uh and they've got the one wipe Charlies so you can clean up the look of your face you can clean up the smell of your face you can clean up both the look and smell of your butthole but what you can't what you can't maintain with Dollar Shave Club and what I would argue is just as important if not more so to have delivered monthly your armpits Dollar Shave Club needs to add deodorant to their Arsenal because there should be no no excuse for smelling bad and that's what Dollar Shave Club is all about you don't have to leave the house to look like you're presentable enough to leave the house they you know one wipe Charlies yes they need to make it like one armpit D smeller Charlie that could even work if you keep it in the car or something and then you're like crap I forgot yes You' be like all right well this date isn't going to fail I got this like a sponge bath Charlie or something like that anyway the point is dollarshaveclub.com join the club if you always want to look presentable and always shave with a fresh razor to so you can do a good job and all that all that kind of stuff and it's affordable and they deliver it to your house and stuff all right so we've got probably a fair bit more to talk about on the show here today even though technically like it's quarter after 6 but we did start pretty late not like I have anything to do this is a pretty big deal it's okay keep going that's not really funny um oh just keep going so I've had a lot of comments and or I've seen a lot of comments about people calling acitech remember they were the original lclc the lowcost liquid cooler the best name before yeah I know before they partnered with everyone Under the Sun uh you know Corsair and uh um and zxt and like all these guys to co-brand their lclc product and I've had a lot of people running around calling acitech a patent troll for protecting their intellectual property in the US their idea their patent of putting a pump on a CPU block this is not trolling so it has now been upheld they got pretty roughly ripped off they did like a lot they did and and it didn't happen right away but now that it's happening they are pretty aggressively going after first it was coolit and now it is Cooler Master and they are seeking actually uh first it was uh first it was coolit then it was swifttech and now it's Cooler Master or whatever the order it happened in I don't care so they are seeking damages for people ripping off their idea and their design and now it has been confirmed so not just once but twice at isch has won their patent infringement case against CMI a subsidiary of Cooler Master so the first time around they were awarded a 14.5 % royalty rate on every infringing Cooler Master product being sold CMI demanded a judgment as a matter of Law and a new trial and they have now been awarded enhanced damages of 25.3 75% per unit so for all revenues on infringing products starting January 1st 2015 it is still appealable by CMI but I really got to wonder if they're going to go back for more at this point do I like that this patent doesn't allow anyone to put a pump on a block and this isn't the US to be clear like in Canada these products are still for sale um do I like that not really it does stifle Innovation do I believe that there was a ton of innovation to be done in the all-in-one liquid cooler not really the performance hasn't really changed dramatically in The Last 5 Years how big is your radiator if we had a product that worked fine and was a reasonable price and acitech was selling it and they were making their margin and corser was rebranding it and they were making their margin and and we had an ecosystem that kind of worked and it was you know the consumers were happy to pay that price um does anyone benefit from someone coming in and doing something very similar uh and infringing someone else's patent I don't I I don't know that that is getting into some pretty uh that is getting and like to be clear like there is there is sort of there is similar and then there is very similar and I can't find the link now unfortunately but uh I saw an internal shot of uh one of cooler Masters uh CPU block SL pump combo units and Ace text and wow is the construction really close because the reality of it is in software you can go closed Source okay in uh chip design you can not really show people you know how it all how it's all working you can hide a lot of Special Sauce but physical products patents are the only thing that protects it it's the only thing that prevents you know someone from saying oh hey that's pretty cool I'll just make that exact thing yeah yay now I have it and also it's cheaper because I didn't have to do any R&D work I didn't have to lay the groundwork for the acceptance of this product because that was a real thing I was around when the lclc first launched I was one of the first people to order them and not order one personally but to order them for stock I sat in the NC warehouse for days and took bulk orders of LCL LC's and and repackaged them into boxes I had to like cut the packing material to size I had to I had to baggie all the mounting screws cuz it was it was designed for oems and system integrators and I I turned the lclc into a retail product before anyone else I was there and I know that the beginning wasn't smooth it wasn't always as simple as hey we'll bring this product to Market and a bajillion people will buy it asch invested in making this a viable product category and Cooler Master didn't at least not then and not certainly not to the same extent so I get it um but I mean it does it does suck that you know it's like competition is good and I'm not saying competition is ever bad I I'm just saying there's another side to the coin and it does look like the court was right in this case I do not consider acch to be a patent troll especially because the technology that they're patenting is something that they're actively selling and have as far as I've been able to tell been somewhat reasonable about so it's not like you can't buy it they're not just it's not like that that happened to Puget systems where some guy yeah wow some guy patented something to do with mineral oil submers submersion computers and then basically prevented pet systems from being able to sell their kit right around the time that we did our mineral oil build blog that was because that company is not selling it it was not a viable business idea that they had in the first place they went under and now they're just sitting around being a patent troll as being a troll literally one person like no one else was doing this and it was a very small passion project thing they weren't really Mak money money no like I like man the call that I had with was so depressing he was just like yeah so bad news we your last video is going up that's cool that's great we actually cannot sell these anymore so yeah rip like you know this is something we've been working on for like eight years or whatever just cuz we think done a really good job on it they're the reason why I got into it I saw one of their really early systems possibly their first one at PA way back in the day and was like what the hell is that I even remember very specifically grabbing the display cable and tracing it with my hand to like make sure that it was actually doing what I thought it was because I didn't believe it at all and then talk to the dude for like a while and then was totally super interested and then went did my own thing and like yeah so I'm pretty buddies with them a million a million views on uh on YouTube of your rig that you built based on that encounter yeah yeah 1.1 million there it is so this is for those of you who haven't seen it oh no sorry no 1.1 million is our project yeah yeah um the poor yeah of course that's going to be the uh that's going to be the one um so no but still that's almost a million views and that's back in the day too so this is Luke's rig that he built based on that cool encounter with uh P buy like the same fish tank that they did I found it at freaking PetSmart near my parents house like this was super cool and like hella inspired by them I just couldn't pay the uh import duties over the Border yeah it is expensive yeah so so like it's it's a lot of exactly what they did to be completely honest um yeah I so yeah it's it's lame for anyone who whose name is Cooler Master yep um you know but let's see yeah this is this is kind of scary it could impact the fury X yeah uh because those are using in an infringing design with the pump and block integrated so it's going to be an interesting little bit uh doesn't look like ek's new design infringes on it because it integrates the pump into the radiator which hurts case compatibility so I can understand why not everyone does it but there you go all right next up this is going to be cool for the uh for the film equipment Buffs Red's new Raven camera will start at $6,000 and shoot 4K up to 120 frames per second now I'm going to run through a few things here that are pretty to so it uses the dragon sensor so this is by far the lowest cost you've been able to get at a dragon sensor um it's available with an EF Mount so you can use your Canon lenses cool it takes Mini Mags which are their um their proprietary media very expensive which I guess is leading into how things are starting for things it has a nice lightweight construction it's it's relatively small the uh it's got the same body as the weapon all the weapon modules work it has built-in Wi-Fi it has a built-in microphone which is useful for audio syncing if nothing else even if it's not going to be like a good quality one but this uh this no Film School sub headline here is the gotcha here while the body is $6,000 the way that red sells their bodies and I'm going to see if I can find a picture of the body here and that yeah there it is the way that red sells their bodies is with nothing on it this has no display it has no uh actual on camera buttons to control it it has no um XLR audio input I kind of love it like it's just so absurd it love it nothing it is and for someone like Brandon who really loves doing these really intricate configurations of things I'm sure he would love that yes but there are certain things that should really be on the camera no I'm not trying to get into his head buying a red don't about that yeah well I don't think I don't think Brandon even wants one hey Brandon do you even want a raven not our he says not for our stuff cuz there's a lot there's a lot of there's a lot of issues like it's it's cool that it can record um prores which is which is awesome but there's the fact that you're locked into this proprietary media the fact that once you've bought into the red ecosystem you've got all these accessories and like batteries and all this stuff that's just straight up not useful for other things necessarily um and it looks like it's going to cost you at least 10 grand to get started as opposed to six grand and and realistically if you want to add some of the modules that you're probably going to need um you're looking at closer to $155,000 so it's it's not actually that competitive with some of the newer cameras out from the likes of uh of Sony for example red but it's red uh but it's red and it's the cheapest we've seen from them yet for a flagship sensor like that is an impressive sensor I think it's something like 15 and a half stops of dynamic range I want to say and like sorry 16 thank you Brandon when your when your storage device gets full you can ask if anyone has any spare mags okay I know you don't know about camera stuff and that's fine but zip it what no that's they're called Mini Mags I know I know I literally said an accurate statement I know but you're just trolling me yes I didn't even say anything wrong you're a dick so this is cool it does 1080p at up to 240 frames per second so what I like about this camera is that at least this starts to put some heat on the other guys to come up with a competitor for the fs700 we've had an fs700 for almost three years now yeah and there is still literally nothing else that is an obvious direct successor to that camera because there are other ones like the a7r series that do really great low light um there's other there's the oh man there's there's cameras with better on camera storage now that's a big thing uh cfast is the new industry standard and is going to be way better than the fs700 only has SD cards you have to have an external recorder to use ssds um there's stuff like way more stops of dynamic range and this is happening from Black Magic from Sony from from a lot of different but the fs700 is is has been almost unique in its ability to record 240 FPS slow-mo now continuously with the third party external recorder and just for a lot of the just the balance of features that it has has been difficult to touch for a long time and uh it's it's finally happening and I hope this continues to light fires under the butts of uh of the other camera makers out there speaking of other camera makers black magic is send us an Ursa mini and Brandon will be doing for the first time a camera review so stay tuned for that because uh I know he is pretty stoked on it he's I'm I believe he's going to do a great job I believe in you Brandon um man there's a lot of stuff that I would really like to do pretty quickly here um I don't know did you send out a tweet I think around five I want to say around five oh uh why don't we just do everything left as like rapid fire topics it's okay so here do you want to do the first one here I've read nothing okay AMD preparing dual GPU Radeon R9 Fury X2 world's fastest graphics card so uh original article there sorry I have two mice in front of me so it's hard to remember which is which you know how I'm always kind of salty about SLI or Crossfire on the show yes you know how I recently started uh sing 980s yeah did you know the day that I hooked that up I had a huge drawn out problem that was unfixable for 24 hours was it related to SLI I hooked my 980s together just before a stream started playing games and stuff and was like okay cool this was my 24-hour charity stream started playing games everything worked fine I was performing really well I was like great this is awesome everything's working maybe maybe I'm too salty about this stuff I remember specifically thinking maybe I'm too hard on SLI and it is better now and Crossfire not while you're streaming not really a thing has a huge problem with it so tons of games I couldn't properly play rip and the thing was I was doing a 24-hour charity stream I know total biscuit runs s does he live stream while he's running SLI I don't know a lot of the guys that maybe I was doing something wrong I know a lot of the guys seus I don't know if he has lies okay interesting I was apparently people were talking apparently I don't I don't know there's there's might be ways around it there might be I don't know all I know was it was a problem for me and I couldn't change or fix those things because I couldn't stop or restart the stream right I was doing a 24-hour charity stream so there might have been some fix that I could have ran uh something I don't know and we've run into some other dual GP related issues too um without giving away anything I will say no I can't give away no no no no no don't say anything don't say anything about it a lot of these guys are using capture boxes that are then streaming right right so it wouldn't matter which is an option yeah and then it wouldn't matter um okay well actually one thing I can say about it though is an issue that I have particularly with amd's implementation of Crossfire is that you actually can't turn it off on a dual GPU card you can't just you can't just turn it off there is a tool I forget what it's called Catalyst Pro or radon Pro or something like that where I think you can force it off but even that is not necessarily a perfect solution uh Seagate has come out and said this actually happened a couple of weeks ago but I I just liked it so much that I wanted to do it ssds will never match the per gigabyte costs of hard drives okay well we'll see um so he's saying something something dollar per gigabyte in the upper to 20 to one and something um hard drives match the performance of ssds no they won't but that's not the point necessarily wow um so interest yeah so I guess there's not really much else to say about that I just wanted to I just wanted to document that that was said as thoroughly as possible because statement yeah much confident Oculus VR is getting Twitch streaming soon what Netflix today uh and I believe this article is from yesterday so yesterday um so yeah they're going to set up like check this out you're going to have like a cool this is is actually Hulu but you're going to have like a cool little theater you can sit in and it'll be like a virtual theater experience that is some ba stuff right there so Oculus owners have a lot to look forward to when they become Oculus owners yeah um 4chan was sold to the creator of two channel so uh in in in a series of events that was completely unsurprising to everyone uh forchan got attacked through like an imer exploit and like because the forchan community like the thing happened DS all the things yeah um so there you go uh foran was apparently struggling to be profitable even though they tried a subscription offering and minor advertising and all that kind of stuff so I get it uh Nintendo joins the Kronos Group ads running right now somewhere on our stream oh it's probably on one of the sites that we're loading so let me kill them all it better not be twitch it is not twitch I'm killing all the ads there we go all right Nintendo has joined Kronos group as a contributor member so these are was like a pretty lwd ad actually oh really yeah oh sorry some Team America okay well let's move on um so these are the guys that are maintaining open GL and Vulcan which valve has uh gone all fighting words about and said direct X12 doesn't matter unless you're like deeply into your direct X12 game development now you should just probably never touch it and you should just go Vulcan because directx12 doesn't matter and they have some very good points about uh directx12 being Windows 10 exclusive which was such a mistake I understand that they would have had to do a bunch of work but like oh and I understand that Windows 10 is a free upgrade for seven and eight owners but like Vulcan is going to work uh across a lot of different platforms not even just windows so uh would you roll back would I roll back to Windows 7 from 10 I need to not lean backwards yeah would you roll back to Windows 7 and use Vulcan no because you can use Vulcan on 10 I know I know but would you rather use seven no okay no I I I actually like 10 I like the new start menu yeah new start menu is actually great I actually really like the new start menu um so anyway Nintendo joined which is cool I guess uh blah blah blah blah blah blah uh this is from wfx an Oregon couple trying to resolve a $2 million Verizon cell phone bill lol uh what else we got um this is this is really funny the iPhone 6s put through its Paces in geekbench uh the dual core 6s obliterates the Galaxy S6 Note 5 and other top Android phones in performance testing apparently and we've even got some folks running around saying how it's amazing how comparable it is to the 2015 MacBook actually what's amazing is how the 2015 MacBook manages to run at literally half the performance that it could if it wasn't thermal throttling all over the place yes I mean it is still amazing but like the fact that the MacBook is essentially a tablet in terms of the form factor like in terms of where they actually stuffed the computer okay so so think about that for a second the fact that Apple has been releasing tablets that perform you know somewhat better than their phones for years now that are also tablets and also in that form factor and the fact that the MacBook is performing literally half as well as that Intel chip is capable of because it's not adequately cooled so no yes the iPhone 6s does look like a whiz Banger of a performer and a and a wicked phone upgrade a whiz Banger of a performer whatever um but that the fact that it's on par with the MacBook is not um the fact that the Mac it has nothing to do with the iPhone 6s being amazing it has to do with the MacBook kind of being a dog so just throwing that out there you guys I have Doom Gloom news oh we're ready is it oh kind of ready okay um all right so should we do this on W show or should we do this as kind of a somber Afterparty and tell people from the wow to stick around it's up to you okay let's let's end the W show and we'll be back very shortly stick around especially if you're a member of the lus tech tips Forum a we were doing so well sh uh is it even there\n"
