So, who knows? Are we live now?
It is WEN Show time! So we've got a great show for you guys today, lots of good topics actually.
Every time, yeah people died.
Which sucks because like, no no I mean that sucks too, but I meant the having great topics sucks because
we burned through a bunch of time with inexplicable audio issues because...
Yeah.
Wait, what is going on now? What even is this? Is this crashed?
What is what?
This.
Uh, oh that's pretty neat.
Are we even, are we even like...
Picture's frozen. Nice! That's real too. Ah, never seen it. Real cool.
Uh, go back to main.
Hold on, that's working.
Hold on, go back to main.
Yeah.
Click on camera.
Yeah.
Right click, properties.
Can we refresh it?
Uh, you have to do it in properties, which is hilarious.
It's crying out loud.
Uh, oh!
No properties available.
So I think...
Hahahaha! Oh man!
Hahahaha!
Oh my goodness!
I think the whole card crashed.
Wait, wait, hold on, hold on.
Oh yeah, I don't know. People are just saying the screen share worked.
Oh man.
Oh man.
Feels good. Feels good.
Everything feels good right about now.
I love this.
Uh, it's blinking. Oh.
Did we get something?
No, no, I got, I got, I got nothing.
I'm just gonna, I'm just gonna like, I'm just gonna add a new one.
I'm just gonna add like a new, a new, uh, hold on.
What am I looking for?
Media source? Is that what I want?
No, no, I don't want that.
I want a new, um, a new, new video capture device.
There it is.
Okay, add existing, uh, AVIO camera, blippity-blop, and, um, okay, yeah.
Oh, I know why that properties thing didn't work.
That didn't work.
Okay, new idea.
Yeah.
Click on the camera scene.
Not there.
Yep.
Yeah.
Oh, do it there.
Yeah.
Oh, brilliant.
Brilliant.
Yeah.
Uh, no, no, no, no.
Deactivate?
Activate?
Yeah, sure.
Hey!
Okay.
Alright.
Forgot that you had to nest it so that it would keep its dimensional properties.
So do we leave this in the show at this point?
Or do we spam people's Twitch with yet another notification?
These are the hard questions.
These are the tough questions.
This is what you guys don't see behind the camera.
That we tackle here on the Wan Show.
To make the best show.
Alright.
The greatest show.
Yeah.
My friends called me.
I'm kidding, I have no friends.
Nobody calls me.
My friends called me, they said, look, you never show up on time.
You talk so quiet, we can't understand a damn thing you're saying.
And every once in a while, we're in the middle of a conversation and you just-
It is good.
Alright.
So we've got a lot of great topics for you guys today.
Apple responds to the iPhone slowdown fiasco.
So does iFixit dropping their iPhone battery replacement price.
Oh, they're not a sponsor today.
To $29.
What else we got?
So somebody got swatted which resulted in them dying.
Yeah, swatting's not funny by the way.
No, and this was like the person that got swatted gave a fake address but it was a real address.
And then that person that lived at the fake address died.
So they actually had nothing to do with the entire situation.
But we'll talk more about that later.
And then someone fell down while playing games in VR and hit their head on a table and died.
Great week.
Yeah, stay tuned after the intro, talk about it more.
Wow, that was dark.
Yeah.
Whoo.
Let's go be good.
Yeah.
Yeah, we would stream three times in ten minutes.
On a pod.
We would script that.
Like, for sure.
At like the end.
Okay, cool, thank you.
Sponsors.
Oh.
Fresh books.
See, why is this?
You have to get the line just above, yeah.
No, I have it.
It's above.
It's just not working because whatever.
You probably have to refresh that too.
Holy crap.
OBS is not better than XSplit.
I never said it was better.
Maybe it is better.
They're both not satisfactory at this time.
They both have glaring issues.
They just have different glaring issues.
We need to just, we need to combine them.
Yeah.
Except that then we'd end up with all the glaring issues.
If you took the automatic game detection from XSplit and you took most, but not all, of
the UI design from XSplit and put it on top of OBS, I think you'd have it pretty good.
XSplit's audio UI is awful.
That's why I said most, but not all.
Abominable.
This audio UI, pretty good.
Adding gain, terrible.
Here's what I want to know.
Why is it that only VLC can figure this out?
Okay?
A volume slider that just goes to 150%.
Why is it that VLC had that going on a decade ago and literally no one else has clued into
this?
I think it's quiet, except if I laugh, it's really loud.
That actually just kind of makes sense because my laugh is really loud.
Yeah.
Nothing we can do about that at this point.
All right.
Bullet plane recording suite 2018.
At this point, you know what?
I mean, could it come to that?
Maybe.
Honestly.
Probably not 2018, but maybe eventually.
Probably not 2018.
Okay.
I will promise you it is not going to happen in 2018.
I'm also certain there's people on the team that would have a hoot trying to make one
of those.
I'm certain that there's people on the team who are already working on it.
Stop.
We need to get the site launched first.
Okay?
It's coming.
Geez.
It's coming.
There's some great things that happened this week.
You guys are crazy.
They're awesome.
You guys are crazy.
Oh.
Oh.
First topic this week is...
Yeah.
I know.
I know.
Some people get frustrated with this, but there's literally nothing I can do about it
right now.
It is a float plane topic.
Because this is officially Luke's last week as a Linus Media Group employee.
The most unceremonious day ever.
Actually, yeah.
Well, you got...
Hold on a second.
Nothing happened.
You got your five-year award at the Christmas dinner.
Yeah, which was a silver medal, and I'm not getting a gold one because he's firing me.
I'm not firing you.
Yeah.
I'm being forced to quit.
If I fire you, then I have to give you severance.
So he's doing it even the worst way.
So he was like, here's your silver medal.
BT dubs.
Can never get a better one.
Hey.
Hey.
You can make your own.
You can make your own medals.
I'm gonna give myself a gold medal.
Yeah.
You can make...
Yeah.
I mean...
Every float plane medal will be a gold medal.
Yvonne and I talked about it.
We were like, do we get five-year company things?
Theoretically, you're an employee of the company because of how it works, so you should actually...
Yeah.
So strictly speaking, I've been employed by Linus Media Group Incorporated for five years,
but I was like, who awards it to me?
Who awards it to you?
I think you would award it to each other, but yeah.
Yeah, but the...
Come on.
No, I know.
That's like...
I mean, the optics of that are like giving yourself an award, essentially.
I wouldn't do it ceremoniously.
I would just put it on a shelf at home.
You know what I mean?
I see.
I see.
I see.
So I would want it so that I could have my own representation of whatever, but I'm not
gonna go up to stage and be like, I'm such a wonderful person.
You know what?
Congratulations me for sticking it out for five years.
For not quitting myself.
Yeah, for putting up with my horrible boss for so long.
He wants to have meetings on Mondays and Fridays.
What a crazy person.
crazy person. So no, what were we talking about? Okay, so right, so actually this is
a great time to do a little bit of Q&A about what this transition means, because I know
a lot of people have been asking, so the first question that we have in the chat, actually
I don't see it there, but I'm sure it's coming, is, Luke, are you going to be on Wancho anymore?
Sorry, I have to interrupt for one second, somebody said, I don't think the CEO gets
any metals, works for me, still get metals at Floatplane, owned, and that means you don't.
And I still don't, brilliant, perfect. Sorry, what was your question?
Are you still going to be on Wancho? Yeah, yeah, I'm going to be on Wancho next
week, I'll almost certainly be on the Wancho the week after that, although the week after
that is the Wancho when we're at CES, so it's always kind of, how it works is always kind
of uncertain, but if I'm not on that one, it's because of some random reason, not because
I don't work for LMG anymore, I'm still going to be doing LMG stuff, I'm still going to
be managing their security, that's LOL random, I'm still going to be doing Wancho, and I'll
probably be on a video here and there, we have one that we have planned to film.
Yeah, the year, the year long conclusion. Yeah, you can stop tweeting me about it, oh
my god. We know, it's just, it's a low priority. I had some actor tweet me about it, like they're
high profile enough that I got a notification that they followed me, and they followed me
specifically to be like, yo, when the hell are you doing that, I don't remember who it
was, but it was like, it was like, hey Mr. Actor, the conclusion is install filters where
you don't have fans. No, no, no, no, hold on, it was like someone
significant, I can't remember because I don't really know. I'm just saying, if you don't
have time to wait for the thing and you're trying to build a computer, just install filters
where you don't have fans. I don't really know actor people. James Alan
McCune? I'm super bad with him.
James in Blair Witch, Maddie on Shameless, and Jimmy on The Walking Dead.
Wow. Yeah.
Oh no, I recognize this guy. Yeah.
Oh that's cool. No, so like, so a guy tweets me, and he's
like, yo, yo at Linus Tech, whatever happened to that year long PC airflow experiment you
said you were up to last year? I'm like, we are going to do it, just been
busy. Gonna be that guy.
He goes, gonna be that guy, ride y'all about it, so giddy up cowboy, you spelled giddy
up wrong, but that's okay because his skill set is not about spelling.
Yeah. And I'm like, okay, may not be till after
CES, and he's still riding me. Okay, I'll allow it this time, looking forward to it.
Also, oh, if y'all need a guest host for CES, I know a guy. Whoa, cool, I didn't even see
that. That'd be super cool.
Yeah. See, Jay's Two Cents isn't the only YouTube
tech show that can like talk to real celebrities. Bam.
Yeah. It's a really funny thing, like how, like,
like it's weird because we're clearly like known. Like you were talking about going to
TwitchCon and people being like, yo, what up? But then like, we'll never be real celebrities.
Not celebrities. The only way to be real celebrity is to actually do crossovers with mainstream
media, like a PewDiePie and his featured episode of South Park, for example.
And you know what's kind of weird is I actually think there might be more obsessive tendencies
for the like not real celebrity YouTube people. Yeah, because they're like attainable.
They're more attainable, there's less security because there's less money going around.
They don't live on like 15 million dollar estates except some of them live in like an
apartment or some normal house that has no additional security. If you go to events,
you probably have no security. You're you're much more public in terms of like this guy's
he's in some huge stuff. I recognize him from multiple different things that he's in. His
Twitter account is not that big. Yeah, it's the opposite of someone who's like a YouTuber
who will have a giant Twitter account even though they're less recognizable than he is.
And I'm not I'm not trying to dig on you, dude, if you're watching that wasn't the point.
Like there's lots of different things and they probably see you a lot more. If someone's
in a movie and they're a big movie star, you see them for like two hours ish. But it's
more memorable. It's more memorable. Yeah, but two hours ish every once in a blue moon.
YouTubers often really, really commonly, if they're a Twitch streamer, potentially like
eight hours a day, like it's way more personal. There's a lot more obsession. Apparently he
was on Sugar Pine 7. Just from what was in his Twitter bio, he's. Yeah, no, it's crazy.
Apparently people prefer LTT internet celebrity over Kim Kardashian. But we weren't really
talking about Kim Kardashian specifically. That's another weird form. People are like,
can we do a Patreon to save Luke? That's awkward. No. What else do we got? Someone also asked
if you're going to be doing Linus Meteorgirv stuff from time to time, can you be retained
as a part time employee? That would be really weird. Yeah. And it'd be complicated and expensive
too. So if he's part time at both companies, then both companies have to pay like Canada
pension plan separately. And I, I don't, I don't remember how benefits works as well,
but there's like, and it would be like a really low amount of hours of part time and then
really randomly it would be like a bunch and then it would go back down to really low.
Like it's, it's actually easier if we just keep it clean and Luke is just like a guest
on the land show or like guests hosts a video here and there. And he is the COO of float
plane media. That's his job. Yeah. So it's like the CEO of float plane. Nope, Nope, Nope.
Technically that's me. Jokes. But actually this is something that neither Luke nor I
had looked up beforehand, but COO basically means you actually run the company. Yeah.
So I totally didn't know, but yeah, if you look up the actual definition of CEO is more
like, what did it say? It was like, it was like, it was like large scale strategic decision
maker and then COO was like, operationally speaking, actually runs the damn thing. Yeah.
Oversight of operational procedures and efficiencies. It had a really broad description that was
basically like the guy that actually does the stuff. So it actually works really well
in terms of like definition of what I want to do at full plane. It makes way more sense.
So is float plane a different building? No, no. It will be tape on the floor for now.
Yeah. For now. Yeah. Someday though, if all goes according to plan, it will need to be
float plane will totally need its own building. It'll have its own, it's have its own, like
quite a few employees and it'll like totally explode. And we've had a lot of people tell
us a float plane is going to be a failure. Like, you know, the failing float plane is
already failing. My favorite one is when they spell it wrong. Yeah. These people have no
access to internal numbers that already exist and it is not failing and it is not going
to fail. And we're actually like really excited because sometime in the next, hopefully we
would measure it in weeks, not months. We're going to have an alpha site up. Well, technically
you could go on the site now if you really wanted to. I've I've I've yeah, sort of, I've
said like it's not open in any way unless you're inquisitive enough to figure out how
to get in there. Yeah. Um, and then, uh, and then hopefully not that long after that we
are going to get to the point where we would be able to invite on more creators. I don't
know what you're changing unless it's white balance. Oh, you're just checking. You always
check. You do not always check. He's done it before though. He has done it before. Yeah.
Okay. We'll defend him on that. Terrence. I think he comes in this way with ripped underwear
every time. See you. Wow. That's what I needed. I needed Taron ripped underwear before my
long weekend. So I'll have lots of time to reflect on that. Dang. Oh dang. Someone asked,
so I'll bring it up right now. Someone said, are you doing your charity stream after this?
No, that is no. Oh, I'm doing it tomorrow. I was like, what? Well then why did you, why
did I ask? No, it's, it's yo, can I promote the charity stream on the land show? And I
was like, yeah, go for it. Like, are you doing it? No, it's happening tomorrow. It starts
at noon Pacific standard time. Why do you waste my time? That's what I want to know.
Is this funny to you? I won't anymore because I'm leaving. You can't leave because I'm sending
you away. Wait, I can't do that. No severance. Oh man. All right. But yeah, no, it's starting
tomorrow at noon. We've raised 21,000 for extra life so far this year. I want to see
if we can make it to 30 making it to 25 would be super great. Making it to nothing more
than we have is also fantastic. Yeah. Show up if you can. Dang man. Yeah. That's a Luke
underscore LFR. Yeah. Okay. On Twitch. All right. Other side of the charity streams,
I'd probably recommend not watching. It's a terrible stream, but the charity streams
are great. The charity streams are planned out. We do like one game per hour. This year
is going to be a 2017 in review. We're going to do 20 different games through 17 to talk
about what impact they had on the gaming industry. Sometimes there's cool stuff. It's pretty
uncommon. Like when you're like, like, like, uh, um, testing float plane lives, breaking
twitches, terms of service. Are there any Twitch staff in the chat right now? Hopefully
not hope not literally breaking Twitch's terms of service in your attempt to create a service
that could allow people to break Twitch's terms of service, literally, but we would
never encourage people to do that. No. Um, like seriously, we would, we would not encourage
people to do that. Okay. Probably not. Yeah. So posted by Dr. McIntosh on the forum, we
have our first news item of the day, a mere 20 minutes into the stream. Apple apologizes
for iPhone. Slow down drama will offer $29 battery placements for a year. Batteries are
apparently consumable components. Now this is a stroke of absolute and you'll have to
pardon the pun here. Genius. Oh, because for the price of people who would have been sitting
in their stores, earning an hourly wage anyway, and batteries that are just basically being
sold at like not a markup at this point or a very small market at this point. So Apple
actually gives up next to nothing here, though they do create some additional bottlenecking
in their, in their cues in all likelihood for the cost of basically next to nothing.
Apple is hoping it looks like this is my perception here is all based on what I think. It looks
like they're hoping to avoid a lengthy, expensive class action lawsuit and a bunch of bad PR
by doing something super duper temporary. Yeah. So Apple's basically going, whoa, whoa,
whoa, there's a lot of people complaining about a thing. You know what? Here's some
Goodwill. Also, we are not actually fixing this problem in any longterm way. So yeah,
go eat crap. Yeah. Am I, am I missing something here? Yeah, no. It's pretty ridiculous. So
just in case people didn't know, France, as far as I know, possibly other places, I don't
actually see this in the news. Is this a different topic? Yeah, it's a different topic. We can
talk about, we can talk about that now if you want. Well, I think it ties in really
well because you mentioned to avoid getting sued. Hit it. So let's talk about the lawsuit
in France. So a group in France called Stop Planned
Obsolescence has filed a criminal complaint in the French court alleging that Apple has
violated France's energy transition law. And to be clear, yeah, this is the first criminal
charge against Apple related to this dispute because it is officially against the law to
do this in France, like specifically. The group believes the law on the energy transition
of 2015 prohibits the practice of planned obsolescence, which is defined by the use
of techniques by which the person responsible for making, for the marketing of a product
aims to deliberately reduce lifespan in order to increase the replacement rate. The complaint
is therefore criminal. The law provides for a maximum sentence of two years in prison
and up to 300,000 euros in fines and 5% of the annual turnover. Big deal, like specifically
stated in the law that it is illegal. Apple can try to contort their pitch for why they
did it in terms of like the reducing shutdowns and stuff like that. But that changes nothing
about the end user experience. Yes, because you are still more likely to replace the phone
because you have less battery and it is specifically happening because of reducing lifespan in
order to increase replacement rate. Because proving the in order to increase replacement
rate is difficult, but all that really needs to be proven is the deliberately reducing
lifespan. And you could make a fairly strong argument that it is done to increase replacement
rate if you can demonstrate that the replacement rate is higher, which anecdotally from testimony
from users should be fairly easy to do, especially for a product like the iPhone where so many
people run out and buy the new one every year because it is faster. This is something that
I have been kind of curious about. So I don't think you were involved in this video, but
we did a really interesting piece, it must have been like a year ago, it was a long time
ago actually, where we took Swift Tech's flagship CPU water block over 10 years I think
it was, 8 years or something like that. Jake worked on it. So over a span of many years
and we tested them all on a modern flagship high end processor. And what we observed is
that every year there were these claims of 20% better performance or 2 degree better
performance or whatever it was, and if you added them up it was nowhere near the difference
between the first one we tested and the last one we tested. Now with the water block you
could make the argument that every year those improvements were more to do with optimizing
for the generation of CPU that was being released at that time. So the die size, the hot spots,
actually the CPU just generating less thermals. No no no, that's a thing. Because on the
same CPU, on the new CPU, the new block would do better than the old one every time because
they actually did design them around them. Okay, now let's go back to the iPhone for
a minute here. When we're comparing performance on a brand new iPhone, a year old iPhone and
a 2 year old iPhone, as often happens, whether it's a written article like a non tech or
whether it's us just holding up phones and going whoop whoop whoop which one's faster,
how much of Apple's marketing then has been affected by this? When they talk about the
performance improvement generation over generation, think about it. When people do independent
benchmarks to look at Apple's claims, I'm sure we would have heard about it if there
was some huge discrepancy there. So is Apple using decayed performance numbers to talk
about their generational improvements? Oh, oh, scaling. Oh, I don't know. This is actually
not something that I think I have the capability to test because you would have to, you would
have to get Apple to create for you a non degraded iPhone 6. Okay, so someone said there's
no improvement with Apple. That's not what he's saying. He's saying the difference of
improvement is probably in reality a little bit smaller than what they're claiming. Like
if Apple says, okay, from the iPhone 6 to the iPhone 6s, we improved 30% CPU performance.
And then if they actually degrade this one and then they say, okay, now with the 7, we've
got 30% better performance. It's not a 60% improvement over that first one. It's not
30 plus 30, which actually wouldn't be 60. Yes, I know. Just don't worry about it. The
point is that it could be significantly smaller than what they were advertising. I don't know.
This is not an accusation. There's no allegedly even. There's just, just asking questions.
Um, well playing data on LMG petabyte. No, sorry. Oh no. Someone's asking who owns the
servers and all this kind of stuff. Oh, okay. It's, it's not float plane is its own company.
It's servers are hosted elsewhere. Yeah. Um, now I think there was a backup of something
on like your NAS at some point, but that's dead. Yeah. And that was, that was, uh, not
like very early stages. So we, I'm not, we're not, we're not going to say we haven't done
anything janky. That wasn't customer stuff. No. To be clear. And we also at this time,
okay, the, I think the only customer data we hold is actually through the forum, not
through the float plane site at all. Yeah. And it's not, it's not like your credit card
info cause we don't take credit card. Yeah, that's right. It's coming though. But then
even then we won't store that information. It'll be stored by Stripe. All right. So actually
let's go back to what Apple's offering here. So the offer continues through December, 2018
for the $29 battery replacement. Um, they're also planning to issue an iOS software update
early in 2018 that gives users more visibility into health of their iPhone's battery so they
can see for themselves if its condition is affecting performance. We've got a few people
asking about the 30 plus 30 thing. It's, it's because we're talking 30% above. So item B
is 30% above item A. Item C is 30% above item B. That doesn't mean that item C is 60% above
item A. Yeah. Or even approximately 60% because if item B got degraded by 10 or 15% and item
C is now 30% faster than that, then it's only 45 ish percent faster than the original one.
Yeah. Yeah. Okay. Um, you're adding percentages of two different things and trying to come
up with one. It's not, it is really interesting to see Apple, but like the pioneer of built
in batteries that you can't replace really changing their tune on what a battery is to
try and avoid any legal ramifications here. So they said in its let in the letter that
batteries are consumable components. But then in 2007, this is actually a really, really
great quote. Apple vice, uh, marketing vice presidents. Uh, hold on. Yeah, this is great.
Their their vice president of marketing said that most iPhone users will realize as most
iPod customer as iPod customers realized that they never needed to replace their batteries.
Yeah. Um, okay. So based on their experience, they originally, okay, we've began to receive
feedback about people are seeing slower performance. We now believe another contributor to these
user experiences, the continued chemical aging of the batteries and older iPhone six and
success devices, many of which are still running on their original, many of which are still
running on their original batteries as opposed to what other battery that you're supposed
to put in it. Yeah. Well, I've just been able to do it the whole time. My frame on my iPhone
six is bent. It got bent in my bag because hashtag Ben gate. So I don't even know how
easily I would be able to pop the screen, put the battery in and then get this one back
on cause it actually like buckled on the side. Easily. No, I haven't seen it. It's bad. Um,
all right. Anyway. Um, so the, I fix it, just to bring this up, I fix it, drops its iPhone
battery replacement to $29. We don't really need to like post this link and stuff. This
would be a very short thing to talk about. Yeah. Um, but it's, it's a kit. I wonder if
I'm taking another jab. I'm sure you get the battery, but it's the, do you get like tools
and stuff? Um, yeah, it's not any cheaper. So the only benefit is that you don't have
to wait in line at a genius bar, but I think that having your phone. Yeah. Okay, hold on.
So the like the iPhone seven plus replacement kit comes with all the tools you need to do
it and the battery. So if you buy it once and then you're able to just source the batteries,
then it's cheaper. You can keep doing it for yourself repeatedly and you can do it for
your friends and stuff and you just need to acquire the battery. Yeah. But there is something
to be said if it's the same price for just having it done at the store where if they
screw it up, they owe you a new phone. Yeah. So I personally, if it was $29 versus $29
would just take my phone to the Apple store. With that said, part of the problem is that
not everyone has easy access to an Apple store. Have you seen what comes in this kit? Oh,
that's pretty sick. It has one of the nice screwdrivers and it has like the, like it's
a, that's a $19 one, but it's for the iPhone SE. Cool. Okay. But like there's, there's
different kits just so they make sure you actually have everything. They're all pretty
much the same actually, but there's slight variations, probably just the battery and
the instruction manual. But like you get some nice stuff, you get three bits, you get the
really nice screwdriver, which I actually like a lot. I don't know. Tweezers, ESD tweezers,
little suction cups. Speaking of iFixit, who by the way, isn't sponsoring the show today.
Actual people who are sponsoring the show today. Madrina's coffee. I don't, Oh, actually

right. I got moho too. Oh damn. You know what? I'm just, I'm not, Oh, is it the maple buffalo
bacon is still in here apparently so I can just hold up the package. I think I ate all
of that on our, uh, the first day this shipment arrived. Dang it. You know what? There's a
pack of traditional. I'm not going to subject myself to the hottest stuff today because
let me tell you guys, if you are into hot jerky, I have had multiple people go out of
their way to contact me and say, you know what? I love hot jerky. I can eat hot jerky
all day. When you guys said savage jerky is really hot. I was like, yeah, it's probably
not that hot. I ordered some. It's that hot. I wonder what Mape thinks. Maybe. So Mape
doesn't have, um, a sense of smell as far as I know, or it's extremely really reduced.
I don't remember. It's one of the two. So it actually helps him deal with spicy food
like a lot and he can deal with like insanity levels of spicy food and he ordered some.
I would love to hear from me, but I haven't, I haven't heard from him. All right. So is
made with the best ingredients without nitrates or preservatives. The goal is to create a
snack that's full of flavor and spice, but that isn't bad for you. We've got 13 different
flavors. My personal favorites are the maple Buffalo bacon. The mojo is really good. Traditional
is really good. The cracked pepper and sea salt really got a lot of great flavors. Yeah.
If you're into the hot, they've got jerkies that are made out of Carolina reapers, ghost
peppers. Um, there's another super crazy hot one. Those ones are not for the faint of heart
for real. Um, they've also got barbecue sauce, hot sauce, and a spice rub. Their Carolina
reaper hot sauce is made using one of the hottest peppers in the world. The halapeno.
No, I'm just kidding. The Carolina reaper. It's like right in the name should have been
fairly obvious. Anyway, you can use offer code LTT to save 10% on their products over
at savage jerky.com. Thank you for you. I'm going to just do a thing here. Don't worry
about it. Are you adding more? I am. Okay. All right. Let's see. Let's see if it distorts.
Oh, oh, oh. Risky. Risky. I think it'll be fine. All right. So what else we got for topics
today? I feel like there's gotta be some. You want to talk about people dying? Oh yeah,
I guess we can try to keep them fairly short. That really sucks. I think they're pretty
important. We do have to talk about it. Yeah. So, Oh, I want to talk about this too. It'll
be fairly short, but yeah, yeah, for sure. I'll keep it condensed. All right. Um, where
is the first one? Jeez. Uh, breaking news. This was posted over on pcgamer.com. So I
don't know if we want to put like the guy's Twitch account or anything on blast. I'm definitely
not going to talk about who did it because I'm very against. The last thing these people
need is more attention. Exactly. I'm very against making celebrities around terrible
people. But, um, Andrew Finch is the person who passed away in this whole thing. So we
can talk about him because he had absolutely nothing to do with this. And it's very sad
that he was involved in this at all. Anyways, someone was harassing a Twitch streamer to
some degree saying that they were going to swat them as a prank and all this kind of
stuff. Um, so as far as I know, there was kind of a like, bring it on bro. That was
proposed and super done by the way. Yep. And a fake address was given, but this wasn't
an actually fake address. It was someone's fake street. Yeah. It was someone's actual
home and that home was swatted. Uh, the SWAT team apparently, um, Oh, here we go. Yeah.
In this case, one gamer essentially dared the other to swat him, but provided an address
that wasn't his own, but was nearby. So that's apparently what happened. Uh, police believe
they were responding to a report of a murder and hostage situation at Finch's home. When
Andrew Finch came to the door, he was shot and killed. Um, these situations are always
hard because if, if he say had his hands in a sweater or something like that, it could
look like he's trying to conceal a gun. I don't know what's going on. Um, I'm not blaming
anyone except for the people that were involved and I don't want to name them. Um, the, the,
the two main people that were involved is what I'm saying. I don't want to name them.
Very, very disappointing situation. Swatting in its own is, is terrible. Um, and causing
it to happen to someone that, that someone that isn't even remotely involved is even
worse. So yeah, this whole thing, not good. Uh, the officer who killed Finch when he answered
his front door has been placed on administrative paid leave, which is probably good. See what
happens with that. Hopefully he gets some psych help as well. Um, because he's probably
traumatized, which is another side effect of these things happening, which is why they
shouldn't be done. So what calls for hot current hostage and very recent murder? Like the,
the guys on the SWAT call that, yeah, hard, hard situation to deal with. Moving on. There's
another one. We'll just get rid of this one while we're at it. Um, 44 year old Russian
man was playing a star Wars VR game. The game that was being played has nothing to do with
the actual story. Um, he fell and he hit his head on a glass table. Apparently based on
the medical examiner's report, the man continued playing the game instead of seeking any form
of immediate medical attention and lost a lot of blood in the process. He eventually
succumbed to his injuries and died. Uh, there has been no toxicology information, um, done.
So there's no knowledge of whether he was, uh, like potentially under the influence of
drugs or alcohol, um, which may have promoted him not realizing how much blood he was losing.
Well, depending on how deep you get cut, you can actually like not feel it very much. Yeah.
Like that's, that's a thing that your nerves are mostly at the surface. So he could have
had a like pretty egregious injury and he's in VR so he wouldn't be able to see it. I
would assume that if you're not drunk or high in any form that you'd be able to feel it
like losing enough blood to die. But then it's also coming from your head and it's warm
and warm is, is, uh, harder to really feel. And depending on how into the game you are,
you might be sweating already. So it could be, yeah. And if you're wearing like a sweater,
like to be clear, I'm not saying that, you know, um, I'm not saying that he probably
shouldn't have known to like pop out of the game for a minute and like check himself.
If you get hit, if you get hit in the head, any, any like if you fall in your head, hit
something, it is bad. There's no like, there's no thing around that. You should get yourself
checked out to a certain degree. Make sure that you're not mildly concerned. Yeah. Yeah.
Actually, um, no. Lots of people have had concussions. The only concussion I ever had
was in rugby and I thought I was completely fine. And my coach like demanded to drive
me home and then partway on the drive home, I was like, uh, something's wrong. And we
had to stop. And then I puked all over the side of the road because I thought I was fine,
but how to concussion. Um, so yeah, check yourself out if you hit your head on anything.
Head injuries are brutal. Very sorry to hear that this man passed away. Onto different
news. Yeah. All right. This one kind of interesting. You want to do gaming disorder is now a mental
condition or to the world health organization. Supposed to buy, Hey yo on the forum. The
original article is from Forbes here and I will just click continue to article because
that's not a pair of sunglasses. I did not. Okay. Do you have gaming disorder, a newly
recognized mental health condition? Um, probably. Well, let's find out. Let's find out. Let's
diagnose me. Okay. Gaming disorder is characterized by a pattern of persistent or recurrent gaming
behaviors. Yup. Okay. Okay. So far I'm screwed. Digital gaming or video gaming. Okay. Both
which may be online or the internet or offline, not over the internet. Okay. Still screwed.
Okay. All right. Manifested by one impaired control over gaming. Uh, for example, onset,
intensity, intensity, duration, termination and context. Okay. I'm screwed. Okay. Yup.
Um, two increasing priority given to gaming to the extent that gaming takes precedent
over other life interests and daily activities. All right. All right. All right. It doesn't
say how many other life interests. That's the problem. So if it takes precedence over
anything. Yeah. I mean, would you say gaming is more important than running to take a crap
sometimes? I've never, I've never actually pooped myself, but I have been in a situation,
but no, but like, but gamer bladder is a thing. Oh, totally. I think we're like, you won't
go pee for like a whole day cause you've just been sitting down the whole time. You brought
all your supplies to wherever you're gaming, you're eating, you're drinking, you're gaming
whole day goes by, you stand up and all of a sudden you're like, whoa. And that puts
pressure on your bladder and is actually not a good thing. So, so sure. Number three continuation
or escalation of gaming despite the occurrence of negative consequences. Okay. Yup. Yup.
I'm still screwed. Okay. Um, okay. Okay. But there's a few other things here. Okay. So
the behavior pattern needs to be of sufficient severity to result in significant impairment
in personal family, social, educational, occupational or other important areas of functioning. Okay.
I don't think I've had, uh, one of them previously in my life, but not now. Yeah. Okay. Yeah.
I told my girlfriend that I was grounded on Tuesdays and Thursdays so that I could read,
but that was a long time ago. Okay. That was a long time ago. Yeah. This sounds like some
of the, uh, some of the, um, some of the like celebrities and stuff who have been accused
of sexual assault where like the defenses that was a really long time ago. You know
what? You're disordered, man. That's it. That's all there is to it. You are disordered. Yeah.
There's no denying it. Um, okay. The pattern of gaming behavior must be, oh, maybe continuous,
episodic or recurrent. See, maybe if it recurs, then you're done. Oh, but yeah. Yeah. But
it said may, may. So the gaming behavior and other features are normally evident over a
period of at least 12 months in order for a diagnosis to be assigned. Although the required
duration may be shortened if all diagnostic requirements are met and symptoms are severe.
So what happens if you're diagnosed? So this inclusion basically means that in a, could
you be forcefully hospitalized in a more socialist country? Like say for example, yes, I think
some people would argue Canada's pretty darn socialist. Um, it could be that your tax dollars
could be spent rehabilitating someone from gaming disorder. So the, the inclusion in
the, you're going to have to rehabilitate me in the WHO guidelines will mean that it
will officially become a health condition, a diagnosis that can be used by doctors, official
healthcare, other healthcare workers and insurance companies. So you can't be, because there's
some cases where you can be admitted to like a mental health hospital by someone who isn't
yourself, right? That's a thing, right? Uh, I can speak from not my own personal experience
being admitted, but I definitely know someone who is admitted. Okay. Not of their own accord.
So could you be admitted to a hospital for gaming addiction? Looks like it. Not of your
own accord. To be clear, this is not gaming addiction. This is gaming disorder. Gaming
disorder. Gaming disorder. Because it's broader. So could someone bring their kid and be like,
my kid likes league of legends. So the league of legends. Get it right. It's the league
of legends. If you're going to be the ignorant parent. Okay. My kid is addicted to lol. To
the lol. Yeah. Okay. The lol. The lol. The lol. Yeah. Okay. Could you put them in a hospital?
Even this, like that has its own like essentially like white padded cell that doesn't have video
games. Could you have gaming disorder so bad that you need disability pay? Oh my God. Oh
my God. The Twitch chats like they like league of legends. That's a disorder. That was pretty
good. I like that. So wait, but do they take away your gaming stuff? If you have disability
pay? I don't know. Because then wouldn't they just be paying you to indulge in your habit?
Yeah, but that's like, okay, I don't know what amendment it probably is. There's probably
some amendment where it's nobody's business, what you spend your money on. No, seriously.
Which is like in much the same way that you can like be disabled and you can be getting,
like you can be, okay, like you can get, I don't know what the government money is called
because there's all kinds of different government money for different, like there's disability
and there's out of work but not disabled. And then there's out of work temporarily and
then there's like mental health disorder out of work. And then there's like welfare. I
don't even know what welfare is exactly, but like it's something to do with. Is it called
welfare in Canada? I don't even think so. Yeah. Yeah. Like I don't know. Some kind of
social services, some kind of something. There's lots of different names. But like I don't
think they're allowed to tell you, hey, by the way, the reason that you're not very functional
is that you've like been super addicted to drugs for a long time and your brain is addled.
You can't spend this money we're giving you on drugs. Like I actually don't think they
can do that. So if they can't do that, how do they prevent you from spending money on
a graphics card? And they're not going to take things from you. So they're not going
to take your computer, they're not going to take your Nintendo, they're not going to take
your playstation, they're not going to take your Xbox. Yeah. So you just get paid to play
video games? I mean if we're going to do this, like if we're going to, you know, if we're
going to do this, then let's just have a minimum guaranteed income and get it out of the way.
Which we're working on to be fair. Canada's working on that. There's a pilot project somewhere
in Ontario, some little town. Because it is time. Like if we're, the only option here
appears to, like if you're going to go socialism, then you go full socialism. Okay? Oh man.
This is, this is, this is going to be, there is going to be some lawsuits and there's going
to be some, some public debate. Well like people self-admitting in order to get disability
insurance or disability money. Yeah. Of whatever kind. Can you imagine, like it said specifically
insurance companies. Can you imagine insurance companies being able to charge you a higher
premium because you got diagnosed with gamer disorder when you were like a kid or whatever?
Like can you imagine? What? My goodness. Oh man. And this is so vague. Can we, can we
pay attention to that too? Like. It's really vague. Holy cow. Like if I, if I like update
a little mobile game under the table at dinner one time, is that like impairing my, my like
family? If grandpa doesn't like it, then that's what I'm saying. You just impaired your family
function, man. Yeah. Like holy cow. All right. This is cool. This was posted by Timorf on
the forum. The original article is from text bot here and this was something you said you
really wanted to talk about. I'm 100% certain that I played EverQuest or wow or something
when my mom didn't want me to. Like did I, did I like interfere with family function?
I think so, but we moved on to a different topic anyways. Okay. So this is over there.
This is, sorry, I'm pointing at this. Oh, that makes sense. I was like, don't worry
about it. Awkward. Um, so, okay. So proposed DMCA, not an actual thing. Yeah. Yeah. Not
yet anyway. It's proposed. It's a DMCA exemption, uh, would allow people to resurrect dead online
games. This has been brought up by the museum of art and digital entertainment. My biggest
reason why I like this is because honestly gaming companies have been in a really weird
spot. Yeah. It's not even entirely their fault. They don't really have a choice. No. So like
blizzard going after the private server guys, um, anyone else taking an online game that
requires server log into some kind. So let's just, wow is an easy example for this. And
it's like been very recently, largely. It's also not a perfect example though, just because
it's like technically still supported, even though it's just like newer versions of it.
Let's use the matrix online. Sure. Let's see. Oh, terrible game. But let's use the matrix
online. Someone still wants to play it. Someone is actively trying to essentially rebuild
that game. Um, but the people that made the matrix online and the people that own the
rights to the matrix online or the matrix in general can't allow them to spin up their
own servers because under like copyright style law, that would be not defending your copyright
or something. It's not defending your something. I think it's copyright. Um, so with this exemption,
that would mean that you don't have to go after these people to defend your copyright.
You don't have to, that's no longer a thing. So these gaming companies would be able to
just let people build small, tiny little communities around their games that they don't want to
or can't support anymore. And it says in here, uh, EA, the electronic arts online services
shutdown list includes more than 300 titles and servers dropped out of service in the
last four years. And so anyone who tries to resurrect any of those things is going to
end up with a cease and desist notice from the copyright holder because otherwise if
EA themselves, 10 years down the line and we had seen gaming franchises get resurrected
after 10 years of inactivity, that's the thing. I mean, look at, I mean, okay. Serious Sam
would have been an example of that. I don't know if it was 10 years, but it was a lot.
Anything valve does. Yeah. Uh, anyway, the point is if they ever want to resurrect that
IP, the fact that they haven't been defending it all this time weakens their copyright claim
against all of it. Um, so it's a big problem. Now, something like wow is confusing because
with wow, what people are trying to resurrect is like wrath of which King burning crusade
and classic with our three different versions of wow, but wow is still running and still
exists. So it's in a very gray area. I don't think, I don't think you'd be able to win
with this one because then how do you define a patch versus an expansion and how quickly
can someone actually do this and et cetera, et cetera. So the last time this was brought
up in 2015 it was shut down because the proposal, uh, because the specific games mentioned in
the proposal could still be played over a land, but the new request argues that local
multiplayer is not really a thing anymore. Yeah. So if you don't have the option, it's
almost never to play it on a land, Nintendo's still doing it and the servers are shut down.
Then effectively it's just gone. You can't have that experience anymore. Yeah. And why
for what? It doesn't make any sense. I, I'm a huge proponent of this and I don't think
this is going to stop companies like EA from being Dick bags, but um, it will allow people
to ignore that anyways and be like, well, this is a DMC exemption. I'm just going to
run this anyways. What's up? Oh, sorry. I just, um, Oh yeah. Yeah. Okay. So last, last
topic posted by aluminum tech on the forum. Um, Netflix ads, HDR streaming to windows
10 and the UWP app and Microsoft edge, um, which we actually think we might have a better
understanding of why four K and HDR would be exclusive to Microsoft edge. It actually
does some, there's some things like, especially in this that are a little bit more complicated
to figure out why than what we did. But in general edge seems to handle color, color
and some other video stuff better than other browsers, which is weird cause there's a lot
of stuff that doesn't do better sucks in like so many different ways, but it's good at that.
So you can get HDR Netflix if you have a premium Netflix plan, use Microsoft edge or the universal
windows app. If you have windows 10 with the fall creators update, if you have an HDR display,
if you have an Intel seventh gen or newer CPU AMD not supporting, and if you have integrated
graphics or a GTX 10 series with three gigs of VRAM or more AMD not supported. That's
a lot of, that's a lot of stars and asterisks. Yeah. What, okay. What is a premium Netflix
plan? Is there non premium Netflix plans? Yeah, you're just like 10 ADP or four K or
whatever. Like I have a premium one. Oh, so that means you have a four K streaming plan.
Yeah. It costs like another six bucks a month or whatever. Oh, wasn't that included at some
point? I have no idea. I got on the Netflix bandwagon like super late. Okay. Yeah. All
right. So that's pretty much it for the show today. Thank you so much for tuning in. You'll
know guys again. No, no, no. Float plane. We will never see you guys again because he's
going to float plane. Sorry. I got that wrong. Oh yeah. We've actually got a bunch of really
cool stuff over on float plane right now. Should I go onto the actual site? Uh, I want
to do it on the site. Sure. I want to do it on the site. Gonna be confusing people again.
I already wasn't able to do support quest for this week. Sorry. If you sent him a support
ticket and you're like, what the heck? It will be responded to this weekend. Um, probably
not tonight cause I have to prepare for the stream. Probably not tomorrow because I'm
doing a big 24 hour charity stream. Probably not Sunday cause I'll still be doing the 20
hour charity stream and sleeping, but either Sunday or Monday and it's a long weekend.
I'm including Monday as in the weekend. You're going to have to stop doing those 24 hour
streams. We've talked about this. I know it's 20 this time. Is it 20? It's 20. Yeah. It's,
we're saying like 20 ish. So we were talking about it and he's like, yeah, like I don't
know what it is. Every time I do one of these 24 hour streams, I get sick. Yeah. And like
even if I sleep enough hours, like I still feel like crap. I'm like, yo dude, you're
old. Yeah, it's happening. It happened to me at like exactly the same age. I specifically
like, so the, the theme with this one, so the stream that does the best is my like birthday
charity stream. And I think why is because I do a whole bunch of games, but I do each
game just for an hour. And there's a reason why it's there. It's, it's my favorite game
from that year and we iterate one game every year. So I was trying to recreate that idea
and someone suggested, what if you just do games in 2017? So I went, okay, I'm going
to do interesting, not necessarily good, not necessarily bad, but interesting games in
2017. So like battlefront two is going to be involved. Oh yeah. Cause we'll just talk
during the stream about the loot box controversy and what actually happened with the game,
what happened at EA, all that kind of stuff. So it'll be games that are confirmed. Yeah,
pretty much. Uh, yeah, no, yeah, exactly. Uh, good call. Um, but yeah, like games that
are discussion worthy is what we're going to talk about. So, so I axed a whole bunch
that were actually discussion worthy cause I was like, Nope, Nope, Nope, Nope, Nope.
I need to get the stream shorter. So I cut it down to 20. All right. I am loading it
up. Boom. Float lane. Okay. So that's a placeholder thing right there. Don't ignore that. Yeah.
But it looks like Kyle has a video up USB-C all the things. If you are subscribed to bitwit
specifically bitwit ultra. Yeah. Kyle also has a thing here. Wait, have we been pushing
stuff live on this still? Uh, yeah. Oh no, I don't think we have. Oh, well people aren't
clicking public then. Dang it. Hooray. Okay. I will, I will have your employees now. Yeah.
Well still, I guess. Okay. So there are, did you ever actually tell people how to do it?
I don't think you did. Yeah. Nick did super late, but you never did. Did you? You told
me not to make that video that I had already fully planned. Cause you would do it. No,
I didn't do it. I should have just done that. Um, I told you I should have done it too.
Is best case under 35 bucks. That's already live on YouTube. Oh dang. Okay. So no one's
been pushing public. Great. All right. I did. I published this. Which also has a description.
This thing's sick by the way. Cool. Uh, 144 Hertz, 300 bucks US. Wow. IPS, 1440p. Wow.
28 inch. Wow. Killer. Absolutely killer. That's cool. Like the crushinator. Um, we got it
from an eBay seller. The same guys who sent over that, that pretty cheap, um, ultra wide
like a while back. Interesting. That's pretty cool. Handy wake up tech. This video? This
video was done. That's cool. Oh, you are not, you're currently not logged in. Oh, brilliant.
Oh, I'm on that. Oh, I'm on that. Well, reasons why we don't use the site that's still being
developed on. Um, okay. So that's fair. That's fair. What you said just there. You were fair
to me just now. Um, so to explain to the viewers who are probably like, what the heck? Um,
he's on his creator account. So his creator account isn't technically subscribed to himself.
I think. Yeah. I thought we fixed that, but that might've been overwritten or something.
No, no, you, you fixed it for Kyle. Oh, yeah. But like it was like, it was a temporary fix,
like a dumb fix, like not a real fix. Wait, what is this? Oh yeah. Uh, why you do this
to me? Well, they needed it. So what you can do is also not working. I hate you so much.
I hate you with all of my heart and soul. All right. This one's fine. Oh, Hey. All right.
So what do we got over there? This is a cool video. Oh, that's, I've been waiting to see
this thing for seven years. The chiller resurrection is real. Um, there it is. Check this out.
That is a CPU cooler right there. That thing you're looking at that I'm lifting up onto
the desk. So when did you originally make that thing? Um, it was the first, oh man,
hold on. Did I work in NCIX yet? Just trying to think. I think it was my first summer with
Yvonne. So we've been like 13 years ago. Yeah. So you resurrected a CPU cooler from 13 years
ago. Yeah. It's like actively cooled and all this kind of stuff. It's like, it's like refrigerant
cooled. It's pretty sick. Um, we've got a tech wiki on Dolby Atmos and DTS X because
a lot of people actually didn't really know what they were. By the way, Tyler suggested
today and I was very surprised that we haven't done it. Uh, we should do a tech wiki on cryptocurrencies.
Oh, we have done it. Oh, was it just like a long time ago? A long time ago. Is it, does
it move you maybe do a new one? John's working on it. Oh, okay. Yup. Cool. Yvonne was giving
me crap about it. Just like Austin did one. I'm like, yeah, so did we. She's like, well,
he did one recently. Like, okay, fine. We'll make a new one. Um, what else we got? Oh,
the beginning of this video is sick. Like it's actually awesome. I guess so. It's like
epically cinematic and stuff. What? This is the Lenovo 25th anniversary edition think
pad. Like, isn't this just way over the top? But why did, oh my goodness. That is ridiculous.
It's all just for fun. Um, we have, uh, the review of the dankest ergonomic keyboard,
the Ergodox EZ. It's got led lighting on an ergonomic keyboard because why not? Dale the
sleeper is live. Nice. This has been really well received. This is, um, not, I think strictly
speaking as powerful as the last sleeper PC, but it's super small six core processor and
it's in this epic, epic chassis. Really cool build a tech showdown. Part three is up and
the conclusion goes up tomorrow. Um, for those of you who have been watching tech showdown,
but I've been a little disappointed. Um, feedback on part three is a lot better. A part three
is kind of where it picks up. So part three is where you're going to want to go watch
it over on float plane. I'm surprised it's going to be four parts. Um, I didn't expect
four parts when we were shooting. Long story. Okay. Um, okay. So I think that's pretty much
it for what we've got going on right now. Yeah. Cool. There we go. Although I thought
I had like a, like an exclusive behind the scenes that maybe I forgot to post. Oops.
Yes. I think I did. Oops. Okay. So that's a thing. Just, you know, remember to market
public. No, no, no. I see. It's confusing because there's, there's marketing a public
in the CMS, which we have to do. And then there's like remembering to like post a thread
in the forum now. And I just want everyone to move over to the site. I'm like, it's not
ready yet. Don't do that. Don't do that. All right. So thanks for watching this week. See
you again next week. Same bat time, same bat channel. Thanks.
