The Fun of Playing Games and GTA Online with Friends
Playing games is one of my favorite things to do, and I've had some really fun experiences with my friends Chris Tiff, Joey, and Danny. We all play GTA online together, and it's so much fun. We often stay up late into the night playing together, and we even went 500 a.m. last night! It was worth it because we were having so much fun.
One of the games I've been playing recently is Guacamelee!, which I highly recommend to anyone who hasn't tried it yet. The combat system in this game is really satisfying, and it's also quite funny. I think what makes it so enjoyable is that you get to play as a character who is trying to save his wife from an evil dictator. It's a great story, and the gameplay is just top-notch.
I've also been playing some other games lately, including GTA Online. This game is just a lot of fun because you can do anything with it. You can drive cars, shoot people, and even rob banks! The game has such a huge open world that you feel like you're really in the world of Los Santos. And the best part is that you can play with your friends, which makes it even more enjoyable.
In addition to playing games, I've also been thinking about some new technology that I would love to see. One thing that I think would be really cool is if Apple integrated its watch into our homes. You know how sometimes you're walking up to your front door and you have to fumble with the keys in the dark? That's just so annoying! But what if you could just raise your watch, and the door opens automatically? That would be amazing!
I also think that home automation would be really cool. Imagine being able to pull into your driveway and having your lights turn on inside your house before you even get out of the car. Or imagine waking up in the morning and having your coffee maker start brewing as soon as you wake up! It's just one of those things that sounds like science fiction, but it could be really cool.
Apple has already announced some plans to integrate its watch into our homes with something called HomeKit. I think this is going to be huge because it will allow us to control all sorts of devices in our home using just our watch or iPhone. And the best part is that other brands will also be able to make devices that work with HomeKit, so we'll have a lot of options.
The Future of Apple Devices
One question from Dark Mist asked about the current state of the iPod line and whether I think it's going anywhere in the future. Unfortunately, I think the iPod is dead for now. It's not because the iPod itself is bad, but rather because we've moved on to other things like iPhones and iPads. These devices have just become so much more versatile and useful that they're taking over our daily lives.
I do think that Apple will come out with some new devices in the future, though. One thing I'd love to see is a new Apple TV that's really innovative. That would be something to look forward to!

And with that, I'm going to go eat some lunch because I'm hungry! It's always nice to put a personal touch into my videos, and sometimes that means sharing something as mundane as eating lunch. But hey, it's just part of the fun of being on YouTube, right?
"WEBVTTKind: captionsLanguage: enhey guys where are you David DeFranco here from David def franco.com with a long overdue ask me anything video also known as AMA and your chance to ask me well anything that's on your mind ranging from technology to daily life videos to even Mexican food yes that's what we're going to talk about in today's AMA video so let's jump right into it oh and by the way all these questions were submitted over at twitter.com/dspacestv case and well by hour I mean my family and myself and I just enjoy staring out into the Ocean Thinking About Life listening to my music on the beach enjoying the sights you know and the convenience of the boardwalk being right there I love that feeling of just walking up on the boardwalk for a lunch you know a quick cheese steak for Midway a slice of pizza from maras even going to the arcade for an hour or two and just relaxing because when you say the beach I think of the entire package of the shore not just sand I think of well obviously the beach itself the boardwalk the ocean the motel the food the games the rides it's an experience but then there's camping which I got to say I equally enjoy and actually it's my new favorite thing about summer because we're still somewhat new to it I love pulling up in our camper and enjoying our weekend at driftwood too it's really nice going to the lake it's nice playing around with my RC trucks it's nice taking bike rides it's nice putting my Apple watch to use from a fitness perspective and it's nice to relax it's really really nice and some people may argue David it's not real camping yes it is camping come on let's stop with the jokes it's camping it's a different form of camping than what you're used to and if you want to see me do real camping check out my old camping videos of which I uploaded years ago email oh and by the way they wouldn't call them campers if they weren't made for camping so keep that in mind next time your mind seems a little narrow just why in a a bit that's all I'm asking so Lincoln great question with a very long answer so I'm sorry about that next question comes from oslam and osam says since your opinion has changed on Android would you consider using it as your daily driver I thought about it but I'm not quite there yet mainly because of two reasons number one I love iCloud integration I love how everything syns between my iPhone and my iPad and my Mac especially because of iMessage I cannot express enough how convenient iMessage is the fact that I can answer my text messages right here using Apple's native operating system that's huge with me and I say the word native for a reason because I'm sure there are some third-party solutions for Android that allow you to do the same thing but the fact that it's integrated within iOS from day one that's huge and reason number two this little thing my Apple watch I love my Apple watch and well as of this recording the Apple watch does not natively work with the Android operating system so I couldn't really get by using an Android phone only but am I interested in using Android from a perspective of you know shooting photos shooting videos and just having fun with it in general hell freaking yes because I love my LG G4 it's an outstanding phone with one of actually with the best camera I've ever seen on a phone it's that good next question comes from Riley horen and Riley says what has been your biggest hurdle in your career as a Content producer probably revenue and I think this goes for pretty much every other content creator out there because well essentially I Am My Own Boss and everything is up to me I don't have other people doing the work for me I do everything by myself and actually guys I prefer it that way because that way I know I have full and 100% control over everything that I create it's not that I don't trust others in general I just don't trust others with my content but anyway Jesus David just shut up you talk too much this varies throughout the year for example the holidays content creators can make a killing during the holidays but when April comes around Revenue it goes like this boom last month's Revenue I can't give exact earnings but last month's Revenue earnings were probably my lowest in years but it's only from an advert iing perspective patreon however has saved my butt patreon is making a significant difference in how I can enjoy my everyday life as a content creator not only has it helped me be financially more secure but it has also helped me be able to spend more money on gear that can improve my content such as those cameras that I've been going through and my Apple watch and the list goes on and on so Bradley I hope that answers your question obviously there's a lot of moving pieces to this but revenue is always my biggest concern but lately I got to say I've been doing pretty well next question comes from Matthew muscle white and Matthew says how often do you find yourself using Amazon Echo and the Apple watch well Amazon Echo I use every day mainly because of the music I I just love saying Alexa play something relaxing or Alexa play my jet radio station on Pandora that's very cool and the Apple watch well I use it every day I love it Anthony menoni a longtime supporter of mine Anthony says would you ever do collaborations with other YouTubers large and small honestly I'm not sure it's not because I don't like working with others it's just that I'm not into the whole collaboration scene and I know that's very bad to admit as a content creator but as I said before I prefer to do everything myself and unfortunately that may transfer into never doing a collaboration with another YouTuber unless they're right there on site so I can actually talk to them and see them and collaborate ideas with them so those are just My Views I'm not against collaborations in general because they are a great way of growing your channel so don't be like me go out there look for collaborative ideas and experiences and opportunities and take advantage of them gan GN that little parenthesis helps thank you GN I really hope I'm saying that right GN says are you a fan of Chipotle if not what's your favorite Mexican restaurant first of all shout out to JN because I found her through Gary ve which I think is really cool and ever since then we've been following each other on Twitter am I a fan of Chipotle I can't say yes or no because I've never tried it I know I know people are going to hate me for saying that I've just never tried it so what is your favorite Mexican rur restaurant I don't really have a favorite Mexican restaurant to be honest and I'm just kind of smiling here because I'm going to say this Taco Bell I know that's horrible to say and I rarely have Taco Bell but when I do I love it but then again I'm not that picky I mean if I'm going to have tacos I prefer to make them myself I mean I love tacos it's one of my favorite foods out there but if I have to eat tacos you know not at home home then I would get to Taco Bell I've had Mo before MO is pretty good and I've had Surf Taco at Seaside Heights that's pretty good that's like all natural like as fresh as you can get tacos but I guess Taco Bell I know I know that's just bad I even feel bad just saying that Trev havl says which do you like better waffles or pancakes pancakes they're just more satisfying I don't dislike waffles I just prefer pancakes but when I do think of waffles Leslie nope from Parks Ander creation she always comes to mind and I just finished that show actually the very last season what an awesome awesome show I mean I'm not even into politics whatsoever but parks and wck is one of the funniest shows I've ever seen and it's actually up there with the office and that's saying a lot check it out if you're looking for a new show to enjoy Noah bondona says are you going to seide Heights to same time this year as every other year keep on producing great content thanks simple answer yes I am sort of Max Fitzpatrick says Xbox One or PS4 I've said this in the past and I'll gladly say it again I don't like playing favorites because I strongly believe in this statement each and every gaming console out there has its pros and its cons and I like all of my consoles equally but I will say this lately I've been playing my Playstation 4 the most mainly because of PlayStation Plus I love me some PlayStation Plus especially with games like guaca Melee guacamelee is probably the most fun I've had with a SES scroller in a long time it's a good game you need to check it out the combat system is so awesome it's very satisfying and it's actually quite funny and while honestly I've also been playing a lot of GTA online with my friends Chris Tiff no not Tiff Tiff doesn't doesn't play on PS4 Chris Joey and Danny minck so shout out to you guys you are my crew in GTA Online I love it it's so much fun actually last night we were up till 5:00 a.m. yes 500 a.m. hence why I might look a little tired today but I don't really feel that tired next question comes from Yan Bryson I hope I said that right Yan Bryson says what are your future ideas regarding the Apple watch and Amazon EO well the Apple watch I definitely want better integration well okay hold on rewind a bit first thing I want is native apps we need native apps and that will definitely be happening next month with WWDC 2015 that's going to be an awesome conference definitely keep an eye on that but besides native apps I definitely want home automation integration I strongly believe that home automation will be making a significant impact in the lives of consumers everywhere within the next 5 years picture this guys imagine walking up to your front door raising your Apple watch or Android were watch whatever you prefer to use up to your door and your front door unlocks that's really cool now I do understand this technology is already here I believe there's something called Smart Lock or something like that which lets you into your house using your iPhone so it's kind of like my ring video doorbell except it's a lock which is pretty cool but as of today and as far as I can tell anyway there has yet to be that huge brand that makes it the norm someone like apple it always takes someone like apple to make something the norm look what they did to the smartphone market look what they did to the tablet market and look what they're currently doing with the Smartwatch market and guys honestly I see no reason why Apple cannot do the same in the home automation market now I don't see apple making their own physical devices but with homekit I see other brands latching onto that kit and making devices that actually work with our current devices such as our Apple watch iPhone iPad and even other platforms like Android and Windows mobile so those are my thoughts I'm hoping Apple's homekit can change the world in a way I know that sounds dramatic but when you think about all those little situations adding to one big experience that's what it's all about it's about getting into your front door without having to Fumble through the keys in the dark which I do all the time and it's very annoying and guys that is just the beginning imagine this as well pulling into your driveway and your lights automatically come on inside your house or your coffee maker turns on when you wake up or your shower turns on as soon as you wake up or within 5 minutes of your wake up time home automation could be huge so do not underestimate its abilities wow that's a whole other topic that I could talk talk about for probably hours the next and final question comes from Dark Mist and this is kind of a sad one Dark Mist says what are your thoughts on the current state of the iPod line do you see it going anywhere in the future is iPod Dead first of all yes the iPod is dead maybe maybe I mean I have a very very small feeling that Apple will come out with a new iPod Touch at some point in the near future don't hold your breath though but in general I got to say yes the whole iPod brand is dead hey it's not because the iPod sucks it's just because we've moved past that time in our daily lives as Tech consumers and prosumers and all that good stuff and nowadays it's all about iPhones iPads and even Apple watches so the future is bright and I cannot wait to see what Apple comes out with next hopefully a new Apple TV that's really what I want next so Apple if you're watching please all right guys there you go another very successful ask me anything video I really really hope you guys enjoyed this but as always I want to keep hearing from you tweet me Facebook me Instagram me even email me all that good stuff that information is right below for your convenience as always thank you so much for your support these questions were a lot of fun to answer and this is just the beginning keep them coming in thank you so much once again and I'll will see
