gave my 6
year old a phone? The WAN Show Jan 18 2019 #Helpful Post
I
can hear myself through there which is
super
super weird and I hope that's not
echoing
there's a problem there's one
minor
problem there's a minor problem
those
headphones I don't know where to
unplug
them ah they're like pretty low
you
hear that yeah I hear it hopefully
the
audience can't are we live is it are
we
live right now yeah it's when
Showtime
yeah actually the video I was
working
on just now sounded super cool
really
cool so um have you seen that
that
like what is it like ten year
challenge
hashtag or something
oh
yeah I just phone Oh for that that's
hilarious
right I'm close to 2009 2019
so
we did one but like not not my old
facebook
pictures or anything because I
don't
post on Facebook but LTT okay
because
l 2009 versus 2019 yeah so LT t
actually
just celebrated its 10-year
anniversary
and then the funny thing
about
that you're right that is really
loud
yeah okay like we gotta unplug them
so
l TT actually celebrated its 10-year
anniversary
not that long ago so it's
effectively
a look at the entire history
of
the channel yeah because the only
things
that were posted in 2008
honestly
were not what L CT would be
over
the next three years okay so I
don't
know if you know this but at the
time
I was working with Keaton who was a
writer
slashed the video guy for
hardware
canucks okay so a lot of
hardware
connects viewers probably won't
remember
this but fixed e or fixed was
the
the both the video personality and
the
shooter and editor for hardware
connects
videos for some time before
dimitri
came onto the scene yeah
so
he was shooting for you so so the
original
idea with Linus tech tips was
that
it was gonna be like a lower
production
value thing but Keaton who I
am
quite certain is not watching this so
yeah
I
don't have to worry about I don't have
to
worry about here but Keaton had sort
of
uh I don't know if you'd call it a
disorder
or a compulsion or thank you I
don't
know what you'd call it but he
just
couldn't let anything be so he's
just
good enough so the original idea
behind
Linus tech tips was that it was
supposed
to be like the cheapo
run-and-gun
as fast as you can get it
out
as fast as you can pump a mouse
thing
like my quota was 45 videos a
month
on top of light I had a real job
on
top of the four to six NCIX tech tips
I
remember one of my favorite things was
it
was super important when I pressed
record
and when I press stop record
because
we were not gonna edit it so
like
if I if I didn't if I if there was
a
huge delay between me pressing
recording
you starting to talk it was
awkward
and if I'd let it run for too
long
after you stopped talking to his
awkward
so that was like we've run into
trouble
sometimes we're like Luke would
think
I was done and I would think I was
done
but then I'd be like oh except for
one
and laughs sorry I depress record
let
me be like okay so Keaton couldn't
do
that so so the first couple of line
is
tech tips videos actually from like
an
an effort standpoint anyway we're
quite
a bit higher production values
okay
like the first one has a laugh
track
so like there's actual editing in
it
I don't know if I've seen the first -
tech
tips video I nursing the first NCI
executives
video oh yeah
the
first line is probably do I talk to
our
AMD rep into allowing us to do a
pre-release
video I've seen that of an
undisclosed
processor and he was like
well
you can't leak any useful
information
about it so the only thing I
was
essentially able to say was I have
it
but there's actual electrical tape on
the
screen to ensure that no you know
you
know how okay you know how if you
have
like an image and you like scribble
over
it you know you can come in
scribbling
is
a guy who swirled this face in the
FBI
us world it yeah like yeah zero
every
okay
electrical
tape stuck to the screen
could
not see what was under it yeah but
it
was just like oh there's a processor
and
then the second one was like the
idea
was there of it being like cheapo
unboxings
that were just these very
brief
looks at a product where it was an
unboxing
of a rampage three extreme
webpage
like really hold tortoise
I'm
page two extreme I don't know it
doesn't
matter the point is it was it
was
a rampage board and it had this
goofy
little like knob on it that was
supposed
to be like an OC knob - OC up
or
down so like a shifter so the
beginning
of the video starts with me
holding
the driver just like this I like
pretending
to drive it
I
liked that kitchen Asst I know I know
it
wasn't good but like it was bad I I
found
it entertaining the best part of
like
people complaining about yeah the
sex
jokes or the dad humor or the cringe
or
whatever else I remember when Linus
detectives
didn't have any of this stuff
like
oh okay no what are you watching
this
clearly
my electives it was terrible
literally
in the first 10 seconds of the
first
video ever uploaded to the channel
there's
a laugh track
okay
that's brutal I turn around in my
chair
basically
like uh-oh didn't see you
there
a moment and I bumped the table
and
a laugh track goes off and I'm like
Oh
in the first 10 seconds i guess i
100%
have seen this video but i just
don't
remember that I remember you
hitting
the table but I don't remember
the
laugh track my brain just like
edited
that out it's like no you're not
allowed
to no no bad it can't happen you
know
what there's no love we don't
really
have any good topics today though
has
cult we did the land show dot it's
just
watchful we're just gonna we're
gonna
watch this video I mean I mean
that's
what twitch streamers do these
days
anyways there's gonna be a lot more
insight
in the in the like 2009 to 2019
video
you know what's really what was a
really
cool thing about that video I'm
pretty
sure I can talk about this now
like
I don't think there's an
the
a or anything but it's sponsored by
P
and H oh cool yeah yeah so like oh boy
so
like half the content in that video
is
gonna be like yeah cuz that's the
point
that's the point they knew what
they
response okay we have a point she
was
scratched lands okay like it was and
I
was doing that Co nation is bad so um
no
no they they know it's all good so
like
part of the cool thing about going
through
this progression is that where
we
started out compared to like BH
wanting
to work with us
oh
it's like a ten year change in terms
of
like the both the business side and
the
production values the fact that B
and
H will even pick up the phone to
talk
of us lead they wouldn't have know
we're
still trying to just like you know
run
around with a cell phone hey what's
this
fire truck oh I hate that that
video
is still the top viewed video on
the
panel what's it at now it's over 10
million
oh all right so so this visit I
don't
actually know if you guys are
gonna
have audio capture from my
computer
so good luck everybody else I
also
don't even know if this is gonna
work
yeah and test it yeah that's that's
the
intro yeah how do you like that four
by
three aspect ratio there baby
also
it was only a minute twenty see I
remember
that I very clearly remember
that
but I still don't remember the
laugh
track I'm actually kind of happy I
can't
hear is this what YouTube does to
4x3
videos now just make it like weird
and
squish letter and pillar boxed
that's
pretty weird okay so we showed it
running
at 3.6 gigahertz honestly though
this
one's not as cringy I don't know if
they
have audio mic cliping
something
something where's the sound is
there
no sound Oh apparently the sound
is
too low
Luke's
ducky vid was great it is but
it's
not going to be in that 2009 2019
thing
because that was not technically a
Linus
tech tips video
that
was when I was like still planning
on
doing my own thing okay he's happy I
didn't
do that that would have been a
disaster
I don't know that that video
seemed
pretty good oh yeah yeah I mean
for
the time it seems pretty legit I'll
be
boat par I mean considering how bad
like
my stuff was at that time like
everything
was kind of bad back then
yeah
everything was terrible sorry I'm
just
loading up floatplane stream so I
can
see comments from these got a title
and
here's wrong because you weren't
logged
in oh yeah
dang
it yep sorry everyone all right
apparently
you're too close to the mic
yeah
but I can't really like like did
someone
come in here and like make
changes
to this or something okay
apparently
the audio it wasn't why why
do
people make changes I specifically
said
on my way out from lunch yes I know
it's
kind of too quiet don't make any
changes
are you just moving it away yeah
okay
I'm probably gonna be too loud
regardless
but your Toula yeah no I've
got
people saying audio is clipping like
just
audio is clipping so that's a big
actual
problem and that's very
frustrating
because this is why this is
why
I say these things there's too many
dials
I don't know all the dials we just
have
way too much like the fact that
we're
running a singular mic and we have
all
this junk is ridiculous my streams
audio
always sounds significantly better
and
I just have one mixer yeah like I
don't
I don't it shouldn't be this hard
I
don't know the frustrating thing is
everyone
in chat in flow plane though is
saying
that the stream looks amazing so
heck
yeah there we go oh good yeah we
have
that yeah so we're just said turn
all
the dials if we just randomize
everything
it might end up better
alright
well I'm just I'm just gonna be
relatively
quiet and I'm gonna hope for
the
best
okay
we do we do have technically a land
show
document this week do we not there
are
there
are news I know it's I just got
signed
out but Intel discontinues core
plus
octane processors wow that was that
was
not gonna eventually happen for sure
the
mother of all breaches exposes 773
million
emails and 21 million passwords
Facebook
is apparently secretly building
lol
a meme hub isn't Facebook already a
meme
hub but this is the thing that kind
of
blows my mind
it's
like Facebook's like yeah we need
to
purchase whatsapp to get into the
like
like messaging private messaging
game
but then but then Facebook message
is
your thing and like apparently people
use
like Instagram as their social
network
now yep can I help you you wanna
are
you the one who adjusted this who
touched
it I'm trying to not throw
people
under busses can you can you find
who
touched it maybe that would probably
be
really good I just yeah the problem
is
that then you're gonna end up
adjusting
the compressor and it's really
better
not to touch the compressor okay
fine
then do whatever you want I know
how
they work too but that doesn't
change
the honestly I don't even think
that
one works properly like I think all
of
that just needs to go in the garbage
and
you just need one good yeah well the
issue
is that two weeks ago Jake added a
preamp
with the goal of making the audio
quality
better and then that was when
people
started complaining the show was
too
quiet and then he went on vacation
and
then called in sick today so he's
not
here to fix his stupid preamp and
he's
the one who put it in and the way
it's
hooked up is complicated and so
someone
else came in and tried to fix it
and
they did
this
is the best watch oh there's also
just
doing this is that better hold on
stop
Alex I'm just gonna turn it down in
a
in OBS no no stop stop stop don't lose
everything
clipping on here stairs but
it
seems to be getting better so just
keep
okay alright well hopefully it's
getting
better you guys are witnessing
real
time real time editing of things
now
we're a bit too quiet
oh
wow you know I just I give ya I give
up
no way I'm show today I'm done I'm
done
uh people say it's fine now so just
don't
touch it
you're
still touching it you're still
touching
it we're just we're just gonna
go
with what we have I don't even care
all
right Karen it's it's Trevor s says
at
least it's not ear rape leave it
print
help oh boy
okay
all right okay okay don't spam
please
all right so why don't we jump
into
our core plus opt-in processor so
you
guys the original article here is
from
kick guru and I don't know where
Colton
got all these news items but it's
obviously
not the forum because he's not
crediting
people on the forum and it
doesn't
look like he's looking at the
tech
linked items for this week so
there's
there's a spot actually on the
win
show dock for both items that make
it
into tech linked and ones that are
sort
of notable but don't make it a
detect
linked okay so I just like I just
don't
even know know what he was doing
but
anyway this is over on kit guru and
do
you remember core plus vaguely do you
know
what it is no I remember the
branding
I don't really remember care so
core
plus was a brand that from my
understanding
was mostly intended to
only
really exist on mobile but then
what's
interesting here is that it
appears
as though there were actual
desktop
processors including an eighty
seven
hundred eighty four hundred and a
quarter
that
also had it and the idea was that
the
processor was bundled with obtain
memory
so its core in that the processor
is
just a regular old core processor
core
processor okay I seven I five or
whatever
yeah and then it was plus
because
it because it came with opting
now
to be clear I'm not I'm not down on
obtain
very cool technology I've been a
proponent
of SSD caching sand
it
first showed up in Intel's product
stack
with what rst I believe there were
solutions
before that in fact Wow
thinking
back it really has been a very
long
time OC said how to drive that I
think
they called this in apps ah
synapse
Drive does that sound right ocz
synapse
yeah is that is that right yeah
okay
so they had a caching drive that
came
with like this weird third-party
software
and it was designed with twice
the
spare area so it was like it had
half
the accessible capacity that was
actually
on the drive and then the idea
was
that it could easily sustain high
performance
over time because this was
back
before I think this is before trim
even
existed so it could run garbage
collection
because it had so much spare
area
and it would last for longer
because
it had more spare area and you
had
to install this software and I don't
even
remember if it worked on a boot
volume
like it might have just been
something
that you can do on like a
storage
volume I don't even remember the
details
it didn't it didn't sell well
because
it's like super expensive anyway
Intel
moved it more mainstream with rst
or
a Rapid Storage Technology and I've
been
a proponent of it ever since
because
I think it's a great way to get
better
performance out of magnetic
storage
whether it's for your boot drive
or
whether it's just for your game drive
like
we actually did one recently where
we
compared we ran obtained on AMD which
was
kind of cool but using third-party
software
that has come a long way in the
last
ten years and actually worked
really
really well like better than
AMD's
first party solution store am i
sorry
one quick thing yeah and I do that
thing
again because there's a lot of
questions
in here which thing the stream
thing
it's a dream thing okay so I'm
getting
a redonk amount of quite
probably
more than I have any other week
which
is kind of surprising but if
there's
people that have questions about
flow
plane that are fully members or not
come
to my stream after the stream and
asked
me then because I have to partake
in
the win show yeah and is important
yeah
yeah core plus yeah so no it's one
random
little thing I want to add I
still
have that synapse drive do you
really
yeah the 30 gig one Wow yeah why
I
just
I
don't know you should use it as a
cache
I mean it'd be slow as hell it's a
2
- isn't it yeah yeah I think so it's
really
old yeah cuz that's isn't that
like
priests and force that's that my
careless
because I remember you gave it
to
me when I used to live there ha and
then
I guess I stopped using it so it's
like
still there was it one of those
like
I never want to see this again
things
or no I used something to deserve
it
I think it was I don't want to deal
with
this ok yeah I think that was it so
anyway
long story short I'm cool with
caching
I think it's great however yeah
the
branding behind like that core plus
branding
is terrible I honestly the
branding
and the marketing around almost
everything
that touches obtained has
been
really rough there's a lot of
things
that they could have done to just
make
it yeah just make it better and
easier
to understand like locking it
down
less and like I don't know anyway
will
be funky octane is cool this
solution
selling it bundled with a
processor
is super dumb they should just
sell
it as a processor and an obtain
module
yeah you'd even sell it as like a
bundle
just say that not core plus yeah
cuz
core plus sounds like like it like a
case
Q style thing yeah you know what I
mean
or it sounds like it has more
course
yeah sure yeah you know again
everything's
got like a 10-year theme I
think
it was like 11 12 years ago that
intel
released their core series
processors
I'm still mad it's so stupid
why
do I have to say core i7 quad core
processor
why do I have to say core
twice
it's so dumb I actually liked the
i7
I 5x3 thing when it first came out
really
when it first came out and I
justify
it no I'm listening
it
helped categorize things for me when
I
was trying to do explain things to
other
people and I know I know actually
proper
defining lines between the
categories
categories have always been
really
weird
but
in general most things kind of line
up
pretty well do they I don't
necessarily
want to follow this story
but
like if I was if someone was like
what's
the difference if someone who
knew
basically nothing was like what's
the
difference between high 17 high
fives
with Sandy Bridge what would you
say
I would say go watch this excellent
video
over on the channel taken by the
Sandy
Bridge so pre techie okay I could
tweet
a quickie I talked to I would say
a
core i7 is maybe gonna have more
memory
channels okay but although they
don't
know anything they don't know what
memory
channel I'm talking total layman
I
worked it best buy it this time I'm
selling
laptops okay I would say and
like
core i7 might have onboard video
but
might not it's a laptop a laptop
well
there were desktop ones yes there
some
of them were triple channel memory
some
of them were dual some of them were
architectural
II a generation ahead of
the
other ones that were on the high-end
platform
we sought we sold like a
desktop
a week laptops were selling like
this
so what your experience inside Best
Buy
is all that matters and no I was
saying
it was useful to me at that time
okay
but couldn't they just as easily I
didn't
say it was good okay I didn't say
it
was good couldn't easily gone okay
gold
silver bronze yep the gold one the
gold
- yep the gold - ah they could have
I'm
not saying I don't I'm not saying it
was
good not that I'm saying that's good
either
what they've done with the Zeon's
gold
silver brought it's terrible it's
terrible
scenario so also really big
yeah
I just in general it was helpful to
be
like that one has this stuff extra
there
you go
it
has hyper-threading yeah that's the
answer
you where we wanted from me is
yes
and you avoided it the whole time
but
that's that's all I needed to say to
most
people and okay what's
hyper-threading
Wow but it was still
sort
of helpful but the core part
actually
frustrated me more yeah I was
stupid
yeah
the iSeries has its own huge swath
of
problems you know that's the really
dumb
thing to it's like I actually
because
I'm not really an auto person I
actually
blamed Intel for this crap it's
BMW
three five and seven series
oh
my god it's all BMWs fault
see
I'm a computer person I thought it
was
the other way around no that makes
as
if BMW would copy intel cementing you
know
the crazy thing is until used to
have
like respectable branding to do to
do
yeah like until inside people used to
like
there was kids at my school who
were
not into computers who had Intel
Inside
shirts cuz like it was a thing
and
the old int onside commercials were
like
very memorable until inside was
huge
yep
and you you still remember the
jingle
and like there's there even other
stuff
that I thought they did really
well
Centrino I thought was a stroke of
marketing
excellence maybe not genius
but
definitely excellence because what
it
did was it achieved a sales goal so
it
incentivized laptop manufacturers to
buy
not just the CPU and chipset but
also
the Wi-Fi module from Intel it
improved
the state of wireless
technology
for consumers in general
because
all of a sudden it made it easy
to
buy decent Wi-Fi over craptastic
Wi-Fi
that just like basically wasn't
gonna
work it had until networking it
had
a battery life message behind it
because
it had to include their Benyus
core
core M processor
and
so it had like it had this strong
technology
and sort of quality of life
and
also sales kind of message so I like
I
had to respect it as as sort of
excellent
marketing yeah a well crafted
message
yeah but it just it feels like
they're
just struggling and I have to
wonder
if maybe part of the problem is
that
they just don't really have
anything
new to sell more Korres doesn't
okay
so what like AMD is like we
actually
don't know what to do with all
these
cores it's all inside well am be
outside
there's got two records to fit
inside
it should steep that should be
their
branding okay I can't carry all
these
course
yeah
but CPU so efficient you can go buy
a
pickup truck and kill the environment
with
it if you buy your cores in the bed
drive
around just drive around to work
commuting
in that pickup truck you got
all
your core isn't it I just want the
most
Texan personified to do this video
I
specifically make sure that they have
no
idea what a core is is have them be
like
super into it won't even be helpful
anyways
the outside I don't think them
not
having something new to sell
justifies
butchering all their branding
yeah
because they if they kept up from
that
I know I was I was crushed when
Squarespace
change their branding back
in
the day from build a beautiful or
whatever
the other one was because there
was
two that I really liked oh man
you
and I played off this make it crazy
make
it something I think and I would
always
jump in and say the word Oh what
it
was I don't remember
wow
I don't remember yeah maybe it
wasn't
that good oh well okay they
dropped
it pretty quick cuz they used to
switch
branding yes super fast you
should
yeah
you
should go view that was amazing so
like
thank you they change the branding
way
too fast and I don't know I've never
actually
thought that was that great of
an
idea especially if you find one that
gloms
on really well yeah and like maybe
you
should only calm down with our audio
were
just like yeah maybe but Intel
Inside
was very Universal and that was
all
you have to update stuff and I have
to
confess I didn't like their newer
logo
until I like went back the other
day
I could see some updating the logo
though
but I would keep my Intel Inside
Intel
side was huge do they still use it
at
all like I think they definitely
still
protect the trademark I'm sure but
like
yeah trademarks Intel insides brand
logo
mark name on my network this is
relatively
new branding ish yeah okay so
they
still put inside on stuff but it's
not
doesn't have the same kind of punch
here's
a sample usage chart I mean maybe
they
just don't emphasize it the way
that
they used to yeah amazing I always
get
such a kick out of this I remember
we
we worked with well I guess it'll
never
happen again because I'm talking
about
this now but we worked with the
IOC
at one point oh and the guidelines
they
have for this kind of stuff are
just
like they're actually crazy yeah
look
at this amazing things start with
Intel
Inside is correct amazing things
start
with Intel inside your PC like
look
for Intel Inside okay oh it's got
this
I think I was gonna say I think
that's
the problem with that one too I
don't
think it's the PC
I
think it's that Intel's the trademark
is
on Intel I don't know whatever
they're
not they're not
oh
shoot did we have an echo in the
backlogs
doing that oh my bad I'm sorry
you
guys they probably did crap oh well
welcome
to flow plain UNIX night yeah
well
welcome to the land show everyone
we
just complained about into a brothel
yeah
every week do we even have a show
today
is this even a show is anyone
gonna
watch this yeah yeah 7500 people
watch
into YouTube yeah it officially
doesn't
matter anymore
let's
saw actually we should probably do
our
sponsor spots holy crap we started
so
late today
oh
yeah spectrum yeah uh-oh hey new
packaging
I want the vector is this the
oh
there's a dress there's a clip-on
you
don't have glasses though so you
don't
get the clip-on oh this is the
blue
light blocking oh these look nice
glasses
yeah these look actually quite a
bit
better almost all your driving
decisions
are based on what you see
spectrums
new lumen driving glasses with
the
L um to ten lens claim to make it
easier
to see road marks stop signs
street
lights and more to help reduce
your
risks on the road this is actually
something
that is pretty like well-known
using
a like a yellow tinted lens while
you're
driving is supposed to increase
visibility
they also block a hundred
percent
of UVA and UVB rays and if
you're
unsatisfied with your lumen
glasses
within 30 days they'll give you
a
full refund no questions asked so go
to
and shoten ah use when shoten on
their
Amazon listing oh we have a coupon
to
just buy the one Amazon that's kind
of
crazy I get 10% off your order at LM

g / looming LM dijon LM g g g / lumen
how
do these look are they a little wide
for
my face uh I'm really bad at that
I
think barely but like maybe not I feel
like
if I had trendier hair I could
actually
rock these but my hair is so
bad
that was actually another thing that
was
kind of fun for the 10 year thing
like
looking at your hair through the
ages
and the great thing about it is
that
there was just like not really a
clear
improvement no oh no there's
periods
of like truly spectacular ly
awful
there's dips but there's not
really
anything better it's like I have
such
unpopular opinions about certain
things
about you I don't find your voice
annoying
I've never seen your hair is a
notable
problem oh it's a problem I know
a
parent yeah oh it's like I'm just bad
it's
objectively a big problem I don't
see
you know who else's sponsor today

GG
g / humble bundle that's pretty cool
i've
used humbled by the lots of times
me
too I've bought a lot of games I
never
played
yeah
but I've also got some games that I
did
play yeah and I didn't pay very much
and
it was probably like cheaper as a
whole
anyways yes now is the beauty of
Humble
Bundle but they have this like a
normal
store now - which is pretty cool
yeah
technically there's a private
Internet
access spot in here
get
private Internet access I don't have
a
lot of time you would show is gonna be
we've
got a better link than that what
is
it LM g ja GG / dia when yeah LM GG g
/
p IA when we gotta get those things
updated
yeah oh you know what else I
really
really have to update you guys on
okay
so we've got a couple of updates we
actually
forgot last week to look at the
blog
oh so there's a couple updates
posted
by Stephanie Potter ways to get
to
LTX 2019 Xtreme hack lots of options
if
you're flying into Vancouver the
closest
airport is Vancouver
International
Airport YVR it's in
Richmond
don't worry it doesn't matter
if
you plan on staying in Richmond or
downtown
Vancouver there's a great there
are
great public transit options it's
called
the sky train so there's three
lines
that branch out from actually very
close
to where LTX is if you are
anywhere
not on the sky train our public
transit
sucks and we don't have Ober so
I
would strongly recommend finding a
hotel
that is near a sliding station so
the
Waterfront station is about five
minutes
from the Vancouver Convention
Center
walking and pretty much
everything
can get to waterfront if you
live
locally or plan on renting a car
there's
ample parking located under the
East
Building of the Vancouver
Convention
Center road-tripping to the
great
white north if you're taking i-5
up
from CF from Seattle you'll cross
into
Canada
gee
Sarge border-crossing which is open
24
hours these are actually really great
tips
you guys are gonna wanna go check
these
out over at LTX Expo comm and
we've
got some information about hotel
accommodation
and options um yeah we
don't
have lyft or uber week I cannot
make
that clear enough we do not have
ride
share here because the taxicab
mafia
is still somehow winning it's it's
unbelievable
Mexico and taxicabs are
kind
of garbage here too yeah if you
stay
in downtown Vancouver it's roughly
a
20 to 30 minute walk max
and
then there's always taxis or public
transit
as options it's a decent City to
walk
through though um so there's some
four
and a half five star for 600 to 800
a
night that's pretty expensive if the
rest
of downtown is a bit of a mixed bag
ranging
from 80 bucks a night for
hostels
to hotels in the 300 dollar
range
and if you're looking at Airbnb
zs--
there's options from single rooms
to
full apartments in the 125 to 350
range
if you don't mind traveling more
or
you want to rent a car cuz you're
gonna
run around and see the city like I
know
Steve from gamers Nexus ended up
going
up to Whistler and doing some
biking
and stuff since he was in town
anyway
um
you can stay outside of the downtown
core
and it's quite a bit less expensive
so
like hostels as low as like 50 bucks
a
night so uh yeah that's pretty cool
what
Colton it's gonna be it's gonna be
sick
these
are from spectrum they're they're
driving
glasses oh they're actually
they're
actually like tinted kind of
like
differently than their regular just
like
blue light filters this isn't
during
the sponsor spot anymore so I'm
gonna
I'm gonna go into it the style of
them
reminds me very strongly of destiny
skins
really yeah they're like gold with
the
carbon fiber and then other matte
black
this is a really sporty very
destiny
skin style this almost looks
like
like an impact resistant like
sports
goggles to me yeah this one
doesn't
this one's more like like
stylish
like I could actually like I
could
actually see myself like just
wearing
this when I'm I could see you
doing
something active you could see me
wearing
them yeah you mean literally
yeah
thanks Lou no no
we
have news in other news the oh really
was
there news in the first place Lenovo
might
be releasing their folding phone
yeah
the Razr name oh that's great
seriously
oh they gotta have like all
the
colors again like chocolate so it
might
be making a comeback as a $1,500
foldable
phone according to the verge
will
remember the razor wasn't cheap
that's
true
but
like like wow there was nothing
amazing
about it though like calm down
you
know I don't think it's gonna get
any
better so here's the thing I think
it
was for the first time last year
global
phone unit sales dipped well like
they
still have executives to pay you
know
ya know I'm I just gotta go I can
CLE
they do so we don't know anything
about
this thing no screen size no specs
no
yeah really anything we just know
that
it's not the phone in the picture
that's
yeah no that's the original
Motorola
RAZR yeah um so I was hands-on
with
a foldable phone down at CES
did
you happen to see that video no but
I've
seen many photos of that phone he's
terrible
yeah I kind of assume yeah I
was
like it was one of those things
where
it was kind of like the ya know
quit
okay so a question is it terrible
as
in this will always suck or is it
terrible
as in like wow this is a really
really
rough year zero but I see the
future
it
was terrible in that it was it's a
really
rough year zero but I see the
future
but they are going to suck for a
while
yeah okay cuz here's nothing I
know
what I was thinking you think think
back
to how long it took laptop
manufacturers
to figure out palm
rejection
on the touchpad I'm like not
having
a VCR inside which is a
relatively
simple problem yeah
it's
very horrible compared to like a
dual
sided foldable device where you are
at
times going to be touching the other
folded
side of the display in the course
of
your regular operation of it like
this
is not simple and it's gonna look
stupid
if it's not if it doesn't you
know
have stuff on the back like it's
not
gonna look cool and space-age it's
not
gonna work for marketing purposes
unless
they try to keep the whole
display
on the whole time so so there's
there's
the whole touch rejection thing
to
get over there's the fact that if
that
display is anything to go by the
quality
of the OLED panels themselves
might
be trash now it was it was bad
like
I honestly that booth was one of
those
ones where I wanted to be as nice
to
them as I could because I was right
up
in their grills while I'm talking
about
this product yeah but I also tried
to
get my point across that like even
though
this product is for sale like
don't
buy it it's got some issues some
issues
yeah as they say the other one
that
was like that was the the VR shoes
that
I saw while I was down there do you
see
that video yes I'd liked them I know
but
it's ed ed likes them until I told
him
how much they cost how much they
cost
guess okay so just okay so you
haven't
seen the video there VR shoes
where
you like go like this on the floor
or
like backwards and you spin in your
chair
and like you walk in this
direction
and then you like spinning
your
chair and you walk in this
direction
but you stay seated the whole
time
so my brain like rollerballs on the
bottom
it it's effectively ball most
technology
in 2019 on your feet it's not
quite
ball Mouse technology because it's
only
2d so it's more like scroll wheel
technology
scroll carry on it's even not
as
advanced as ball most technology in
2019
so it should cost like like 50
bucks
a foot but I'm going to guess it's
like
three
hundred
three hundred fifty bucks for
the
set and at that price would you
consider
it to be something worth buying
no
and if you liked it
no
it's four hundred dollars oh oh okay
oh
the main reason why I would say no I
wouldn't
find it because it's gonna be
good
in such a select amount of games
because
so many games are not gonna
expect
you to have that type of movement
Dhoom
like they had there I'm very not
surprised
they picked doom yeah because
it's
probably pretty good and do but
like
I can't imagine if you need to
travel
for very long distances like if
you're
in like oh yeah what a pain yeah
I
have to run across this whole freaking
map
just trying to like run in my chair
the
whole damn time like that's I can't
imagine
that would be good like it's one
of
those it's one of those things where
it's
like did joystick waggling with the
we
ever displace traditional controllers
no
because no one actually wants to do
that
and if you're gonna if we're gonna
play
an exercise game then I'm gonna
play
an exercise game not uh like
shuffling
my feet back and forth yeah
game
like that's not an elite Sabre oh
sorry
go ahead
I
I also partially understand the cost
because
they're gonna sell like four of
them
more than that obviously I'm
exaggerating
by a lot but like yeah if
it
was just like two dudes or something
I'd
be like yeah you guys can make her
go
oh this hey you took a trackball
almost
and you put it on people's feet
how
do software work yeah yeah yeah yeah
yeah
in other news yeah in other news
the
pi max isn't bad anymore oh really
yes
that's actually surprising it's very
surprising
cuz did you you never tried
it
no but I listened to you I was really
frustrated
because there were other like
I'm
not gonna name any names
partly
because I don't remember what
they
are but I was getting thrown under
the
bus because there were other like
much
more credible VR enthusiast
youtubers
who are focused on VRS that
were
saying that
amazing
sure and I was sort of the the
dissenting
voice being like no actually
this
is garbage like they cannot ship
this
something something I've been sorry
I'm
gonna kill ya something I've been
thinking
about over the last little bit
it's
like a lot of the vrq think you are
Linus
you can interject your home point
a
lot of the VR community a lot of the
hardcore
VR community kind of hates us
because
we're dissenters to a certain
degree
right I think the problem is we
can't
be their champion right well I
guess
I sort of could now but it's also
not
my space anymore but like Linus tech
tips
can't be their champion his last
actives
is technology review yes and
it's
like early on and really rough and
like
people that are buying them are not
using
them and like etc etc etc so like
gotta
keep credibility and be a proper
reviewer
it's we can't yeah champion VR
I
think we both would like to I want it
to
be better than it is
I
want it to do better than it has yeah
and
we both wish it the best yes and are
both
highly interested in it the thing
to
is even in the time since VR became a
consumer
product like with the with the
vibe
I don't mean like there has been dr
consumer
products before but yeah even
in
that time - tech tips has also gotten
a
lot more mainstream in terms of the
technology
that it covers but also the
perspective
that i am trying to provide
because
like i've been i've had my eyes
has
to be impartial it's not it can't
just
be your view i've had my eyes kind
of
opened to that there's so much more
to
the world than technology enthusiasts
even
within people who who love and live
in
brief technology like of the top
interest
of my twitter followers is dogs
not
tech there you go tech is a very
close
second but dogs is first of dogs
is
first um i mean and here's the thing
like
even i was watching the mkbhd
livestream
today and he said he got rid
of
the mast
that
i hooked up for him in favor of
this
jellyfish one because it was like
simpler
and i was like okay
this
is just something that you know was
hard
for me to imagine ten years ago
yeah
the theme of today's stream yeah it
was
hard for me to imagine ten years ago
but
like that even among people who are
technology
lovers they're sort of this
there's
this friction when it comes to
like
working on technology it's like no
saying
why the sensors don't work
physically
note etcetera just like
there's
there's people who would
consider
themselves into cars but who
don't
change their own oil yeah they
just
like driving them so so anyway like
we've
we've tried to take on and it's
not
it's not always easy for me like
sometimes
I'll end up nerding out over
like
a header on a motherboard and like
I
can I can feel the hundreds of
thousands
or millions of eyeballs or
maybe
not eyeballs but certainly
eyebrows
just kind of going right what
but
it's something that I've actively
tried
to do and from a more mainstream
perspective
VR is not very interesting
like
I got I had Yvonne try beat Sabre
last
night cuz I've been I've been
having
a blast in it because really I
had
her try it last night and she played
for
seven minutes and was like yeah I'm
feeling
a little sick I'm tired of
having
something on my face and went
back
to like browsing Facebook on her
phone
and that's not because she likes a
voter's
wasn't good at it or something
it's
because VR just has like a really
long
way to go and has some real actual
obstacles
that I'm sorry will make it
not
mainstream period like the fact that
you
need all this space lots of people
don't
have space yeah even if they did
have
the money and so people will get
mad
people will not like it but we got
to
stand by the stuff my man we can't be
the
champions for that I don't I don't
agree
with a lot of the VR community's
defenses
of VR I love it
I've
actually I've been using I've been
using
my vibe more than for LA so I've
been
using actually quite a lot lately
I've
been using
like
at least every other night for this
I
wouldn't punch my ceiling in beat
saber
I would probably be using it all
the
time as well that it's it's very
cool
but we can't put our own opinions
too
heavily into the wall okay again I
don't
do this anymore but line
effectives
can't put their own opinions
too
heavily into this kind of stuff I
mean
I can include it I just can't like
that
can't be the conclusion of the room
you
can't just be a champion for it yeah
just
in spite of whatever is in front of
my
face yeah um speaking of champion
beat
saber not savor facebook fall
champion
wait what is this this is not
the
right there's not the right thing
Oh
interesting apparently Facebook is
investing
into news partnerships over
the
next three years I guess they don't
want
to elect to trump again huh that's
really
interesting
Oh
Oh speak oh there was like there was
like
some like Mimi thing that I had one
Facebook
lol it's a TechCrunch article
down
I don't know I was looking for a
different
thing now I'm over that one
okay
uh-oh you know what I really want
to
talk about sure forget it I don't
feel
like talking about that okay um so
I
hooked my yeah um the title of the
stream
yeah yeah um I'd like to know
before
I sort of explain why what's your
gut
reaction he's six he's six to six um
I'm
not I'm not a father I don't
Intendant
being a father
mine
does matter but I'm still judge
Internet
it scares the heck out of me to
be
completely honest so part of the big
part
of the problem too is I feel like
when
I was growing up the internet was a
little
bit more divided
there
was like porn sites and then there
was
the rest of the internet it was a
little
harder to find the porn sites it
was
a little harder to find them and
like
mainstream websites didn't
effectively
have it all over the place
or
at the very least extremely
sexualized
content where it's like maybe
there
isn't nudity but we all know why
you're
here
that's
everywhere now yep
and
the rest there's tons of other stuff
internet
that scares the hell out of me
too
in terms of a very impressionable
small
child that scares me
yeah
if it was just a call and texting
plan
situation mm-hm sounds like it may
be
a good idea but the internet scares
feet
that is a very interesting
perspective
here's an alternate look so
my
wife and I are Yvonne I guess most of
you
know her name so we actually talked
about
it a fair bit so one of the
reasons
that okay sorry I want to throw
another
job but there's other obviously
positive
parts the internet as well he
could
share location if for some reason
he's
ever lost automatically
automatically
believe it or not I can
just
check his location right now
Oh
see like that's cool yeah and like
it's
like that kind of stuff is oh yeah
what's
not yeah I'm not gonna show it
yeah
I was just making sure sometimes
hey
I'm sleek on-stream updated eleven
minutes
ago that's exactly where he's
supposed
to be right now yeah I'm like
that's
awesome huge amount of peace of
mind
like it's just so there's there's
the
great part and there's the that's
scary
kind of part but overall I don't
think
it's a negative thing that you
give
him a phone so I would not judge it
that
way I was convinced that my kids
probably
weren't gonna get a phone until
around
the time that I did which was
when
I turned 16 if I recall correctly
okay
which admittedly was probably
pretty
old fashioned like yeah when the
newsletter
came home when he started
school
like real school not preschool
when
he started school and the
newsletter
came home with like a cell
phone's
policy I was like this
elementary
school what do I need these
kids
have cell phones for so the thing
that
made me come around to just
approaching
the idea and that sort of
opened
up the discussion with the wife
was
that I'm gonna start taking him with
me
when I travel sometimes okay just so
that
we get to spend a little bit more
time
together when daddy's traveling
that's
cool cuz did you travel a lot
that's
cool yeah so I want to start
taking
him with me and if for whatever
reason
we got split up in an airport or
whatever
I
don't
want to have a phone like period
because
there's like it's really funny
like
if my phone battery is dead or
whatever
else
iris
must have been a couple months ago
I
was running around the superstore
trying
to find Yvonne in the kids cuz
they
were shopping and I was doing a
thing
that I used to do where I would
walk
down the entire thing looking down
every
aisle to figure out where they are
and
you can still miss people because
they
could be like in between aisles as
you
pass through or whatever else and I
was
like it has been so long since I've
done
this because if I ever don't know
where
Yvonne is and then I find out yeah
and
so I was like okay just for the sake
of
location I'd like to know where he is
sure
also a really cool and interesting
side
effect has been that I have ended
up
talking to him more something about
text
communication especially while I've
been
traveling so he actually texts me
all
the time okay that's cool and
without
his own means of communicating
with
me how was he supposed to do that
yeah
and it's not like I don't still
talk
to him in person
when
we're in the same room but you know
if
he's on his way to skating lessons or
something
he'll just text me and be like
on
my way to skating lessons gonna have
fun
hope your days okay that's pretty
freakin
cute oh jeez alright and it's
pretty
it's pretty neat because you know
I
can you know text back be safe and and
all
that stuff let me know how it went
you
know send me a picture of they were
working
on this homegrown Crystal kit
thing
well that was easy yes
like
hey send me a picture of the
crystals
and like it's really fun it's
interactive
it's all the reasons that we
like
text communication why it's
completely
taken over the world
super
wholesome um another thing is we
have
put all of his relatives in his
home
book so he's just like staying in
touch
with his family in a way that I
just
didn't do when I didn't have my own
couldn't
way of communicating because
all
that you had was the landline which
when
I was a kid you shared with your
internet
connection to we'd be playing
games
dude
which was which was lame yeah no
games
were cool but having them shared
yeah
yeah um now in response to the
Internet
I will say this because of who
he
is specifically I'm not that worried
about
it if I say don't go to any
website
other than the websites that I
say
hey I can whitelist sites like I can
actually
go that draconian if I need to
but
if I say don't go to any web sites
other
than these ones he actually
wouldn't
now
that might change as he gets older
he
might get a little more defiant
little
devious um but I mean there's
other
stuff too there's actually no way
I
tried to override it I cannot
there's
no way to install a full YouTube
app
on a Google kids account oh so he
cannot
watch my videos this is what I
was
gonna say those like even really
mainstream
sites like YouTube there's
stuff
on it that was like you know can't
get
to YouTube okay yeah like the eyes
you
bring twitches bundled in with that
well
he can't install an app without it
pinyin
me to improve it but it couldn't
you
just go to the website like
YouTube's
ah no I doubt it okay I can I
can
I can I don't know anything about
the
kids I can double-check that but I'm
not
that worried about that I think it's
very
unlikely the other thing too is I
get
a report of what apps he's in what
is
web browsing history is how long he's
been
in ReactOS meantime I can do it day
by
day so he's spending some time in
whatsapp
and apparently someone let him
watch
Netflix today for half an hour I
can
just like lock it I can just lock
him
out of it I can set the hours of day
that
he's allowed to access it and I
don't
know it's it's one of those things
where
it's actually been really cool to
see
him learning how to communicate
digitally
because there's stuff that
there's
like texting etiquette things
that
I kind of take for granted like
it's
adorable he feels like he has to
reply
to every message you remember that
yeah
okay cool
I
was I was someone brought up a
runescape
the other day and I brought up
that
I used to have such a hard
time
playing my game because the first
MMO
style game I played and every single
time
I walk past anyone all
communication
then was speech bubble
above
your head yes so every single
speech
bubble I saw ah I thought they're
talking
to me so I would like walk up to
two
random people having conversation to
start
replying out of nowhere I was like
that
versus how insufferable by gamers
hate
kids so much yeah pretty much
for
me I'm like but then like I remember
what
a little like okay so Diablo 1 not
realizing
that there was no godly plate
of
the whale that was purely at Reynard
item
I tried to convince someone that
mine
was legit at some point and they're
just
like look the server says no
trainers
no hackers get out of here I'm
like
no no this is real it's mine it's
mine
there was that was not a real item
like
so dumb anyway so I did it I'm
really
happy that it's been a positive
experience
because to me that would be a
pretty
scary thing yeah that's cool I
intend
to keep an eye on it
I
don't think he's even opened a web
browser
yet it hasn't even occurred to
him
he mostly just uses it too oh no I
know
when he watched Netflix he watched
it
this morning before school because I
didn't
feel like getting up yet that was
my
bed he mostly uses it to whatsapp his
relatives
which i think is pretty good
so
seems pretty wholesome yeah yeah um
so
I think that's pretty much it for
when
show we'll see you guys again next
week
same bat-time same bat-channel
that
was a wild show and yeah like we
can
play the insurance oh wow we didn't
you
know what let's do it now outro
oh
wait wait oh we should really do some
super
chats hey bad idea
also
yeah there's still tons of
questions
coming through holy crap go to
my
twitch after this I don't know how to
pronounce
this name or what 300 rubles
is
and the message is hey there Linus
and
Luke I bet you can't read my name
why
did that happen what even just even
what
okay uh yeah
cheapo
hi hey Aaron hi
Yasin
hi Coffeyville cheese monkey got
it
ah max LTX VIP tickets I want to book
hotel
in flight in advance but when will
the
VIP meetup take place last year it
was
a day before we'll be at the spirit
will
be at the same this year not sure
stay
tuned
oh
crap that might be a bit of a problem
because
VIP tickets there's not gonna be
a
ton of them we really like we don't we
don't
want there to be a ton of them man
probably
gonna have to pay those fees
those
that eventually yeah I don't know
what
to do because I hate how expensive
they
are but if we don't make them
expensive
they sell out in like 30
seconds
yeah yeah max I'm sorry I don't
have
a solid I don't have a solid answer
for
you yet red slash Ace how much is
Abu
that LTX interested in showing off a
smell
device for gaming uh I have no
idea
you'd have to reach out to :
-
tech tips at gmail.com it sounds like
a
fun interactive that actually does
sound
pretty fun yeah David hey there's
something
I really want to say to you
how
you literally saved my life but I
don't
have enough money to fit in a
super
chat so I'm putting it as a
two-part
message and floatplane chat my
floatplane
user name is David okay do
you
want to find that thanks dude I
don't
know when he sent it though I Jake
says
why is every aspect of a computer
in
metric but storage is Imperial tuned
1/2
inch drives you know what I wish I
could
answer that question screen sizes
also
for the most part in in imperial I
know
some places do do them in
centimeters
but Imperials a little bit
more
common Aaron I've been watching
since
you unboxed those eneloop
batteries
oh boy yeah video is fantastic
Adam
says I can't access floatplane so
joke's
on me Luke wait would you should
email
oh flow plane has a new support
email
yeah it's supported floatplane
comm
yeah you see way more simple yeah
it's
like not stupid now yeah II passed
Vox
sends a heart yeah hey yeah I still
need
to call you sorry says I'm not
reading
that that's very inappropriate
we
don't we don't talk about P on this
show
yeah Lewis says please cheers for
an
IT person burning the midnight oil
migrating
an Oracle database heck yeah
cheers
to you brother
good
look how much to get you to to
floss
asks lactose Larry I can't I can't
floss
I actually tried know how to do it
wait
is this is this dead it's not hard
it's
not I don't know what's going well
I
just like don't really get it I think
it's
supposed to be like well you don't
really
do well yeah I know but I just
okay
you know what will you do it he
sent
$100 the US dollars yeah he asked
how
much so that was just for the
question
all you're gonna answer for
$100
for the question you wouldn't dance
monkey
dance for $100 and it's not your
hundred
dollars no and you so I can
understand
this yeah tell you what I'll
try
but I'll go along with you I don't
know
if I remember it okay so so where
do
they start they start here your hips
have
to go
your
hips have to go opposite though
okay
and then and then this arm goes
behind
you and they back out and then
out
and then this way this way this way
this
way I'm sorry I did that okay
yeah
ah I think that's how you do it
honestly
I've never seen a tutorial
video
and I've never actually watched
the
dance I just assumed this how it
goes
lactose Larry actually continued to
send
money was I wrong lactose Larry
spent
$400 getting us to floss we would
have
done it for the first hundred it
worked
all right well thank you guys for
tuning
in we'll see you again next week
I
think we're
I
don't even know if we'd eve
Daniel
visited the same
it's
such a train bro
terrible
Friday
o
this entire project actually came
about
when I was joking around with
Brandon
in between shots because the
thing
is is that out of the box a red 8k
camera
so this is one of their DSM c2
platform
cameras or whatever it's got
their
helium 8k sensor on it out of the
box
they're
super compact to the point where
like
it's kind of a miracle that they
managed
to keep the things cool because
data
moving through them but the thing
is
by the time you rig them up with your
external
display your big old lens your
couple
battery packs your quick release
your
what's this thing called your your
top
handle whatever else like they're so
bulky
that it wouldn't be that much of a
stretch
then to like clip a radiator to
it
we're kind of joking about this and
laughing
and then all of a sudden not
serious
why
don't we water cool a camera well I
couldn't
think of a reason not to so
here
we are and this video is brought to
you
by antlion antlions new mod mic
Wireless
features a low latency high

life
and more check it out at the link
in
the video description
so
here's the thing I'm not sure if
anybody's
ever done anything like this
before
even just tearing it down like
when
I search for red camera disassembly
I
get like a a manual from rocket
rentals
something about a Leica M camera
now
there's our red epic x5k camera
teardown
but extreme tech didn't
actually
do it they just grabbed some
photos
of the fcc's teardown where they
made
sure it complied with all the rules
and
regulations and stuff it would
appear
that after a cursory google
search
anyway we are in uncharted waters
here
waters get it
I
have no instructions all I have is
this
camera body and this iFixit kit and
this
my phone because I'm gonna be
taking
a lot of pictures as I go here to
hopefully
make sure that I don't screw
this
up too badly so there's a few
things
that we do know we can see that
our
main cooling heatsink is right by
this
vent here so there's our intake I
believe
no that looks like our exhaust
and
then here's our intake yeah it says
intake
fans right there and so it's
blowing
through the body this way and
out
that way so the cooling seems to
take
place at the back so maybe we could
start
back you know what that's let's
start
through the body
they're
going going bottom up you know I
feel
like I need one of those project
mats
here we go just make myself a head
okay
no well let's did I give up
forget
it yeah sure this is gonna be a
system
that will work great because
holding
the threads like that we will
definitely
be able to see how long the
screw
is oh okay so this is their
monitor
attachment and then this is
David
what's this one do okay I don't
know
but what that means is that there
could
be delicate ribbon cables behind
any
pieces that we remove we're kind of
working
blind here and we don't want to
pull
too hard on things
bloody
hell so this is loose but this is
not
completely loose yeah we're gonna
need
to loosen that alright well the
next
thing we can pull off is a mag
holder
oh okay
oh
wow this actually looks like it might
be
simpler than I thought
so
this is the the mag reader right here
and
it just uses a simple pushing
connector
that goes right there and then
that
actually gives us access to this
ribbon
I think it's this ribbon damnit
it's
not that really now some of you
watching
from home including even ones
that
work at red digital cinema are
probably
wondering why would you water
cool
a camera what could you possibly
hope
to achieve I mean I'm not expecting
any
better performance pooling it more
while
it could have the potential to
increase
its longevity
is
not gonna get us more resolution or
more
FPS or anything like that so I
guess
if I was gonna set out a success
or
fail bar for this project it would be
if
we managed to make the camera cooler
and/or
quieter then I would consider it
to
be a massive success because as some
of
you will know especially if you've
worked
with Reds in an on location
environment
or in a setting that's
that's
quite hot in between shots
they'll
actually ramp up their fans
quite
a lot in order to keep the
internals
cool like they turn it off
while
you're shooting which is good
because
you can't have a bunch of Stan
knows
while you're trying to record
audio
but in between though they'll ramp
them
up quite high so if we could find a
way
to eliminate that behavior that
would
be pretty cool too and aside from
what
exactly it is that we hope to
accomplish
there are actually a lot of
other
things that we don't know yet
either
including whether or not this is
even
possible or if we are just barking
up
a completely empty pointless tree I
mean
red wouldn't tell us anything so
the
only way for us to find out if the
camera
can even have it spooling changed
is
to open it up and see for ourselves
I'm
starting to get a little nervous
though
this is not quite as simple as
just
pop off one side and be able to see
oh
well there's that warranty void if
removed
wait what the hell how did this
come
off okay there's our button oh wow
this
is not going to be easy
there's
a cooling block here that looks
like
it's dealing with the bottom side
of
this what looks like it should be a
PCB
but it seems to be
then
there's what appears to be a second
one
right here and it's interfacing with
whatever
this chip is right here then
there
are heat pipes that run down under
this
PCB on the side here into this
heatsink
right here which is much larger
than
I anticipated
like
this is a serious machine that is a
significant
amount of heat that they're
trying
to move away from it
so
as far as I can tell the next step is
to
remove this PCB and give ourselves a
better
look at the heatsink so we've got
a
Xilinx x7 a second here what you do
I'm
not even gonna try to guess right
now
sweating quite literally sweating
right
now so this opens to reveal not
scream
but some kind of antenna
connector
okay so this internal
connector
is actually or something to do
with
oh wait hey Brandon does the red
have
any wireless functionality does it
okay
say this presumably is our Wi-Fi
chipset
okay so I was kind of worried
about
jumping the gun on removing the
sensor
housing because I don't want to
get
any dust on it or anything I'm not
exactly
working in a clean room but it
appears
as though I have just freedom Oh
what
the hell this is all one big thing
man
the housing for the sensor here at
the
front it's come free when I remove
the
screw from the PCB here but it's
taking
the heatsink with it do that but
the
heatsink can't get out there's a
separate
heat sink back there oh man why
are
we doing this this is a really
stupid
project oh you bastard what now
so
there's a problem grommet that the
heat
pipes pass through can you see that
there
must be a thermal reason for doing
it
maybe it's just a control airflow to
make
sure that they don't lose any
leakage
it all laps in tight oh man this
has
a wrench freaking head on it all
wait
you've got to be kidding me
it's
tightening up pull the crap that's
turning
the socket under it that's bad
as
long as I can rotate this a little
bit
I can access the one on the other
side
oh my god where did this plug into
on
the other end I don't remember we're
leaving
two ends of this well you know
about
this project already what huh you
didn't
know that we're getting started
on
it yet I don't oh yo is this the red
it's
what remains of a red so this guy
goes
on like this you can tell from the
blue
on here and on here and how I
ripped
it off and then this guy has it's
kind
of like a GPU I think where there's
like
a big chip and then some small
chips
around it that I'll have thermal
goop
on them so that's that can you kind
of
envision it now picture them all
vertically
align them yeah yeah okay so
there's
another couple components here
the
idea is basically just have like
this
and I'd like to our Brad oh yeah
the
bad comes outside so like where the
air
cooling exhaust is we would just
like
put a couple friggin holes in it
would
we even have space for fittings
and
the blocks no so we just have to
like
solder to spray it on possibly but
remember
these heat sinks go away yeah
true
right so if we and then these
ribbons
have a little bit of play so we
can
make ourselves a little bit more
room
between these without giving up
necessary
space here because all these
heat
sinks go away yeah like this one
this
one not too hard I'm concerned
about
this one yeah me too
and
that also seems to be the one that
needs
too much cool yes that's the one
with
the heat pipes this was a really
bad
idea
yeah
but also like a good one how are
you
going to mount on it here is it just
thermal
paste it on oh my god no it
screwed
in from the top look at these
gaps
in the fins these are not an
accident
it's not gonna work why not
give
me one reason one out so you don't
have
enough clearance
I
might not quite working yeah I think
we
need to get a super skinny driver
yeah
that's gonna be a custom order part
ok
so I've got these three screws off
now
I hope it's far worse than I thought
there
are no fewer than 10 elements that
need
to be cooled on this one red
doesn't
subscribe to the less-is-more
philosophy
y-l
I have never seen anything like that
is
that the chip as far as I can tell
but
it has two screw holes through it
they
make a quarter block but that
happens
look why do you think I brought
you
over here this is pointless project
so
I guess what you're saying is don't
hold
your breath for part two Oh coming
to
you 2020
well
no we can finish it yeah like we're
gonna
be on it but like holy Shh
it's
a victim not a patient
this
thing is so full of a six like no
wonder
the things so damn expensive I
wonder
if someone from where at PGA well
what
is this thing
oh
hold on a second no it's not $5,000
hold
on a second it's 28 nanometer
though
like that's not yeah pretty like
bit
tier stuff how much are they is hard
to
say this is a tentative price $1600
for
one and that's that's just this chip
not
like anything else we are so I mean
if
we just have to like cobble the thing
together
and like kind of you know lean
on
it to close it let's yeah like I
think
that if it's water-cooled and then
zip
tied together no one's going to
complain
yes this is just where we say
goodbye
and everyone hopes that we have
another
ones in yeah and we also say
