Handhelds/New Steam Hardware

0:02 Hello, everybody. Welcome back to Plug In for

0:05 Player 4. I'm Mark and I'm here with these

0:09 two. I'm Juan.

0:12 I'm 70. What's my kid in the head except

0:18 for really horrible OSHA violations?

0:23 Got something magical and full of wonder?

0:27 You dirty hoe. I'm sorry, baby.

0:33 Wait, was that in the movie? Yes.

0:35 Literally, he had a hoe. It's been.

0:38 Oh yeah, MM Myers just dreadedly had an actual fucking hoe.

0:43 The gardening equipment. Yeah, like there it.

0:46 Is so long since I watched that movie?

0:47 It's a fever dream, yes. And all I know is that he was a

0:50 terror. Yeah, absolutely.

0:53 And when he gets no, see my favorite is when he gets kicked

0:55 in the balls and then it just cuts to him on a fucking swing

0:59 and shit and whatever. Song playing the the cooking

1:02 show. Yeah, or the cooking show.

1:04 He just. Cuts off his own tail like

1:05 that's. Oh God, that's right.

1:07 Or the that's it, the the scene that will always stick out to

1:10 me. It's like, oh, you want to

1:11 drive? Here you go.

1:13 Push the steering wheel to the side.

1:15 Another steering wheel. Oh, you want to drive too?

1:16 Here you go. They're all they're all three

1:19 just driving. What is happening?

1:21 Or the name of the car. Oh yeah, I can't remember.

1:27 I think it was shit. I think it was because the kids

1:30 like, oh, you mean quick, quick, don't.

1:36 And that's why they don't do live action anymore.

1:40 It was not a good idea. I mean, it was all right with

1:43 the Grinch, but. Wasn't that why his career

1:46 stopped for a bit? Was because of them?

1:48 Probably. Yeah, you really don't.

1:52 I haven't. I haven't seen like Myers in a

1:54 long time and like anything. Well aren't I know they're doing

1:58 another Shrek so he's coming back to voice act that.

2:01 Yeah, yeah. I.

2:03 Besides that, I. Thought they were doing another

2:05 Austin Powers or something. Oh, I think they should leave

2:09 Austin Powers. Yeah, honestly, because it's.

2:12 It's for a different time. Yeah, Goldmember, man, that

2:15 fucking. Yeah, but again, it's also from

2:18 a different time. Yeah, I don't know how that

2:20 would be nowadays. Yeah, things are differently

2:23 changed. Would you like a schmuck and a

2:25 pancake? I wouldn't know.

2:27 I don't watch movies. Uncultured motherfucker.

2:32 So. I mean, yeah, you're right.

2:34 No, Yeah, you're completely right.

2:36 No, I am uncultured. I'm not going to deny that.

2:39 But call me a swine. Yeah, I'll have you know, Sir,

2:44 that I have a sow. He lost us.

2:50 I'd lost two guys. He lost us.

2:52 Anyways, what have you guys been doing lately?

2:57 There's no way. I really haven't been playing

3:01 much. I mean, I've been I've been

3:03 playing a game called Dorf Romantic where it's a tile based

3:06 game where you got a match up. It's a hexagonal tiles.

3:09 You got to match up tiles to other tiles.

3:11 Or there's there's yes, it's a hexagon, but there's six

3:15 different sides that each side could be.

3:18 There's like planes, wheat, forest, water, train, and city

3:25 and if you match up a tile perfectly, meaning all edges

3:28 match, then you get an extra tile back.

3:30 If you sometimes you'll get a quest.

3:32 If you complete the quest you'll get 5 tiles back.

3:35 Oh that was my God. Holy shit.

3:40 You're going to break that. Chair, I think I'm going to.

3:43 I'm not even doing anything that.

3:45 Chair's like. Holy shit that sounded like Oh

3:49 my head. It did.

3:51 We've had that chair since I was a child, so that's like a damn

3:53 near old 20 year old chair. Go on, I am.

4:04 All right. I think you're good.

4:07 No, I'm not fair. Shut up.

4:08 I'm not done. He's not done.

4:10 I'm not done yet. But if you, if you complete a

4:16 quest, which is like, oh, you need to have this many trees or

4:20 at least this many trees and you get 5 tiles back.

4:22 And if you sometimes they will have flags on the quest, once

4:25 you complete the quest, you'll get a flag.

4:27 If you close off all tiles. Meaning like there's no way to

4:32 connect like for example, trees to more trees of that like that

4:37 group. Then you get even more tiles

4:40 back, which is pretty cool. I've yet to go infinite because

4:44 you can do that and people can get scores into the hundreds of

4:48 thousands and I've highest I've gone is 16,000.

4:54 So I'm very far off. That's all I really, really been

4:58 playing other than that, like balloons or actually Monster

5:01 Hunter now, ever since that episode, I've really gotten the

5:04 last time we talked. I've really gotten into it.

5:08 Yeah, I've been playing it on and off.

5:10 I see. Yeah, you're you've gotten

5:11 surprisingly fast to hunt to rank 25.

5:14 I mean 23 is the last I saw. Yeah, I think it's still 23.

5:18 I've been trying to find the time to play it but.

5:21 Dude, my, my work has two gathering points right there.

5:27 So every three hours I you can just go and grab things or I can

5:31 do hunt a thongs. So like while I'm on lunch, I

5:34 just do a hunt a thong for 10 minutes or so and it is your

5:37 crew resources. I'm like, this is a Luna Guerin.

5:39 I might not ever ever make the armor, but I'll hunt it.

5:43 Fair enough, Oh well, I guess for me I've well that new

5:53 Fallout 4 update came out so it. Was a new one.

5:57 Yeah, it's a anniversary. Anniversary thing, man,

6:02 Creation's been great. This kind of I'm not going to

6:06 lie at being the anniversary for Fallout 4 kind of lackluster,

6:09 but. I mean, the game's old.

6:13 It's old. It is now 10 years old.

6:16 Yeah, because it came out when I was in high school.

6:18 Yeah, I remember my like, hell, you and Ethan talking about it.

6:21 Is it like, where do I where do I get wire?

6:23 Oh, you have to go to this specific guy.

6:25 Like, I literally remember that conversation.

6:26 Yeah, just one of the random memories I have.

6:30 Yeah, no, I've, I've been playing that the those new

6:33 creations and whatnot. Yeah, I mean, it's been fun.

6:38 It's just the, you know, updating.

6:41 Yeah. You know what happens when

6:43 Bethesda does that shit? Something's always got a break,

6:46 but that's that's the joy. But.

6:49 Yeah, if it wasn't, I don't want to say buggy, but if it wasn't

6:54 as buggy as it is, I don't think it would have been as fun

6:58 because I have seen some buck shit in my how many years

7:01 playing it. It's so fucked, man.

7:09 Yeah, that was fights that. I will say.

7:15 Not really much. This might date the episode a

7:18 bit but I picked up some Avatar the Last Airbender magic cards

7:23 today and I am super hyped for the pre release this weekend

7:26 with my buddy because this is one of my favorite TV shows

7:31 growing up. Yeah, yeah.

7:34 God it's I need to go back and rewatch it.

7:35 I literally haven't watched it since I was a child.

7:38 It was a good show. Very good show.

7:39 It's on Netflix. I don't have Netflix.

7:42 Oh OK, well Emma and I also have a box set.

7:45 Oh shit. Oh, I had to find a functional

7:47 DVD then because my my last time I used my DVD player in my room,

7:51 it was Kung Fu Panda. I could hear the music, nothing

7:56 else. Characters were like and I only

8:00 heard like, I'm like what the hell is happening?

8:05 It was the funniest break. I'm like, this is great and all

8:11 but I can't watch the movie. Well, I mean you do.

8:20 You do have a DVD player. Yeah, what?

8:26 Xbox that is. That is literally a DVD.

8:29 Player. I didn't know that.

8:30 Blu-ray and DVD. Yeah, yeah, yeah, you can.

8:33 You can play it. I've used it.

8:34 Yeah, since when I've been. I used it a couple nights ago

8:38 just to watch Haunting in Venice.

8:40 You know, and I also got a PS2, I should play it, right?

8:44 Yeah, so. Yeah, I mean literally about.

8:47 You want 144? You want 144B graphics?

8:51 Just slap it in that PS2, yeah? I mean it, it was a very good

8:56 DVD player for it's time. It was, and I think that's why a

8:58 lot of people bought it. Was because Oh yeah.

9:00 Cheaper than a DVD player at that point in time.

9:03 I mean, that's why people bought the PS3 for a Blu-ray player,

9:06 because it was the cheaper Blu-ray player played a lot

9:09 because I think those Blu-ray players were over like $1000

9:12 and. Oh yeah, they were.

9:13 They're fucking expensive. And then now it's like, well,

9:16 you know, it's. Just commonplace kind of getting

9:19 phased out. Yeah.

9:21 Although with the problems of streaming, it's kind of coming

9:23 back because people are like, I don't like not owning my shit

9:28 so. Or having like a show they want

9:30 to watch that was taken off the service and then you know, and I

9:33 can't watch it. Yeah, yeah.

9:34 These people kind of get a little bit more turned away from

9:36 it. Like Uncle Grandpa, they took

9:38 that off Hulu. Oh my God I was sad when I heard

9:41 about that. That's like one of my favorite

9:43 shows ever because of how stupid it is.

9:45 Fucking dumb but I love it. What's Good morning.

9:51 What do you think? Realistic Flying Tiger?

9:55 Mr. Gush. I didn't get into the show.

10:00 All I think of is like some sort of weird, like David David Bowie

10:04 dream sequence. That's about it.

10:06 What? What about you, Billy Bag?

10:09 Oh belly bag, I forgot about that.

10:11 God damn I I knew so many references to that show.

10:14 Now I don't like. I don't remember them now.

10:16 Yeah, I know. But I I used to God, I'm pretty

10:19 sure my buddy Nick was going to fucking slap me because I I

10:23 literally make references all the fucking time.

10:26 And what are we doing today, Marco?

10:28 Marco man. Marco Man Microwave.

10:32 Excuse me Macrowave. Macrowave, yes.

10:36 What are we? What are we doing, Microsoft?

10:37 Line of single use appliances. The back.

10:42 I got 1. Even better.

10:42 What are we doing today in Micro Center?

10:45 Oh God. Macro Center.

10:48 That's what. Macro Center, that's what we'll

10:51 sell all this shit, we sell the. Biggest, and I mean.

10:56 Big. Ram sticks.

10:58 Biggest single use appliance and components.

11:02 You want some thermal paste in a 55 gallon?

11:09 We got you, Bulk. Mine, you would never use all of

11:14 that. You want a bag of old computers

11:17 that companies are thrown away because they cannot support

11:19 Windows 11? We got you for 20 bucks.

11:25 Honestly, that's not awful. It saves it from being e-waste.

11:28 So I I saved the. Fucking planet did you save it

11:31 from? Walmart.

11:32 Is that what you said? Huh.

11:33 Did you save it from Walmart? Is that what you said?

11:35 I think you save it from e-waste.

11:37 From e-waste because they couldn't support Windows 11.

11:41 So they can repurpose it. Put Linux on.

11:42 Yeah, because Linux is the future now.

11:46 Yeah. I'm turning away from Microsoft

11:50 macros. Microsoft.

11:53 There we go. Now we can make my own.

11:55 Microsoft, we'll call it. I was going to be funny.

12:00 Anyways, I've got two things I want to talk about.

12:04 Oh, this was supposed to be a one thing episode, but then we

12:08 had an announcement come out and I was like, you know what?

12:10 I want to talk about this too. So I feel like topic number 2 is

12:15 going to be shorter to talk about.

12:16 Yeah. Short.

12:17 Let's talk about Steam's announcements for their new

12:22 family of console and gaming appliances.

12:27 So they've got the Game Cube. Basically.

12:32 Which is the the Steam console. It's the shape of an actual like

12:38 Game Cube without the handle. Before time began, there was the

12:44 cube God. Damn it.

12:48 When you made that reference on discord that fucking sent me.

12:54 Well, you were close to the beat.

12:56 You said that. Give me the cube.

12:58 I'm sorry, but that's just what I think about.

13:04 I'm just like. Honestly.

13:06 Honestly I love the Michael Bay transformer, the first one

13:09 especially. The first couple were greater

13:12 than they just had lost the plug.

13:14 But the cube, I guess like the, the, the specs are kind of out

13:18 and like a lot of people are like, Oh yeah, yeah, yeah, the

13:20 cube, 8 gigs of VRAM. Oh God.

13:26 And then did you guys see that 2/3 of it is just heat sync?

13:30 Yeah. I'm not surprised that's where a

13:32 lot of consoles are nowadays. They're just huge.

13:36 That's that's. I mean, I'm not too worried

13:38 about that as long as it works. I mean, I mean the how's the

13:43 how's the heat heat, the heating problems for those steam decks?

13:49 Is that OK or is it just? It's OK, it doesn't get as hot

13:52 as the switch does. Yeah, So honestly, given given

13:58 Steam's track, giving Steam's track record with at least the

14:02 Steam Decks, I have faith in that at least they'll be able to

14:06 keep it cool enough to play. I would definitely say the the

14:09 Steam Deck, it's depending on what you're playing that fucker,

14:13 the back of it can get pretty hot.

14:15 Now I've played Breath of the Wild and the Switch has gotten

14:17 hot as fuck. Yeah, but I'm kind of edging

14:20 more towards the Steam Deck. Get hot gets hotter.

14:23 Oh really? I mean the.

14:25 Switch. I think the throttles itself

14:30 after a little. While I also haven't used my

14:31 Steam Deck a lot. I should, but I just don't.

14:35 But have you ever gotten to the point where it gets too hot?

14:38 It crashes. No.

14:39 No, even with like hardcore. Gaming.

14:41 Oh yeah, no it. Does so, yeah.

14:43 No, like I said, I kind of have faith in Steam to at least make

14:47 it so that you can't really easily overheat the thing.

14:52 Yeah, yeah. No, I've, I have never had a

14:56 crash from like heat just there and I mean it pumps out air, I

15:03 can tell you that much. I mean there were people huffing

15:05 it for some God. Forsake people huff everything

15:07 like I don't know what it is, but like it's a console exhaust.

15:12 Yeah, why? I love.

15:13 Hot fucking hair. Like you told me about that.

15:17 I think the Steam Deck when I first got it, Like, you know,

15:19 people huff there. What?

15:20 Yeah. One, why?

15:22 And two, why would you tell me? I think if I remember, if I

15:25 remember correctly, Valve was like can you not do that?

15:29 Like what the fuck is wrong with you?

15:32 Anyway, I don't, I understand like people be like, oh, I'm

15:38 going to huff a marker or something because, you know, it

15:40 actually has fumes. Yeah, which is not any better.

15:44 It's not. I'm not saying that's a good

15:46 practice or anything, I'm just saying that for an electronic,

15:51 that's just really fucking weird.

15:52 Well, anyway, going from the back of the console to the

15:55 front, did you guys see that you can change the face plate?

15:57 Oh my God, yeah. That's pretty cool.

16:00 Yeah, you could 3D print your own.

16:02 Yeah, exactly. You just need magnets.

16:03 Yeah, that's all you need. That's fucking awesome.

16:06 Like that's what that was, yeah. That was one of my first

16:09 thoughts, 'cause like somebody took off the the black plate and

16:12 put on like a orange outline of well, it was there was a

16:18 silhouette of TF2 heavy. Yeah, yeah, just 3D print

16:22 whatever you want. I mean I've I've showed us an

16:25 image of the group chat of somebody changing it to be one

16:28 of the cubes from portal. Yes, yeah.

16:31 Oh yeah. Yeah, I did see that on Twitter

16:33 as well. The entire thing was just the

16:35 cube I think, except the back because you need all that all.

16:38 The IO and stuff, but yeah, no, that's.

16:40 Yeah, the companion. Was cool, yeah.

16:42 That's fucking awesome, yeah. I'm.

16:45 That's so consumer friendly. So it's being on this topic what

16:49 I was going to say earlier with I know people are saying that

16:54 they're concerned that, you know, this might fail just like

16:57 the other Steam Machines. Yeah, well, it's like, I don't,

17:00 I don't think it's going to because now they have a

17:02 foundation that they've built with the Steam Deck.

17:04 Yeah. They didn't have shit.

17:06 Yeah. Well, here's another thing.

17:07 It can pretty much play all the console games just about and

17:11 then you can emulate the fuck out of everything else.

17:13 So it's pretty much it's a one stop shop.

17:16 That's basically. For just a gaming rig.

17:18 Yeah. And it's like 6 inches.

17:22 What big? It's portable.

17:24 It's portable as fuck. Like that'll fit in my jacket

17:27 pocket. It's.

17:28 Yeah, it's literally like a beefed up version of the Game

17:32 Cube. Pretty much, yeah.

17:33 Yeah, yeah, you're right. It is.

17:36 It's literally a beefed up. It's like, it's like they took

17:39 the idea of what if we made a modern Game Cube and we just

17:45 actually make it really fucking good for the time.

17:48 And and the whole thing about the 8 gigs of VRAM in it, it

17:54 doesn't really fucking matter with that.

17:58 Like I'll be honest, they're yes, having more VRAM is nice,

18:04 but you're one you're not going to be running these games at

18:12 all. Graphic settings put the high

18:14 No, I'm sorry, it's not going to do.

18:17 That. I I feel like the the use keys

18:21 for this device is really great for me making it as an entry

18:25 level PC just for gaming. Right.

18:28 And I feel like that that's the actual purpose for this thing.

18:31 And I mean, if you really want to want to make it a

18:34 full-fledged computer, I mean, you put whatever operating

18:37 system you want on it. Yeah, if you really want Windows

18:40 on it, yeah, do it. It's all supported hardware.

18:43 Yeah, so like, you can do whatever the fuck you want with

18:46 it. Well didn't they also say that

18:49 it would be a bitch to do but you can actually upgrade it?

18:53 What are you talking about? Upgraded like.

18:55 Like actually upgrade components of the machine like the RAM?

18:58 I haven't really heard drives. I I haven't heard anything, but

19:01 I know you can get. I think you can get it in 500

19:05 GB. Or 500?

19:06 TB or A10 TB which is. Weird, I'll have to look.

19:10 At that I might. Basically, I might be wrong, but

19:13 I thought I heard somewhere where somebody was like, yeah,

19:16 Steve's saying you can upgrade this if you want to.

19:20 You probably could, because I mean you can with a Steam Deck.

19:22 Because you can with a Steam Deck, yeah, but it's also it's

19:24 like the most consumer friendly thing you can fucking do Yeah,

19:28 if you want to make a name for yourself in the market now I'm.

19:31 Pretty like, like I said, I'm pretty sure they you could

19:35 upgrade this with probably minimal problems because like I

19:38 said, the Steam Deck that's easy to replace joysticks, Yeah,

19:44 because they're literally modular pieces.

19:45 Yeah, I'm talking, I'm talking about the hardware.

19:47 Not like, yeah, not like, oh, you got to replace a joy con,

19:51 like, physically. Yeah, no.

19:53 The upgrade the RAM and the CPU and stuff like that.

19:56 That shouldn't be a problem. The only issue I could come up

19:59 with though, it's just form factor, but you know that's

20:01 something that you can work around.

20:03 OK, but here's here's like kind of a prediction that I have is

20:06 that a lot of people aren't going to get it kind of like the

20:09 Steam Deck. It's going to be those few that

20:11 like really know what they're kind of doing with technology.

20:15 Yeah. Plus those majority that, you

20:18 know, want it to emulate and do whatever with, kind of like you

20:22 can already do with the Steam Deck.

20:23 Yep. It just seems like you can play

20:26 all the games instead of just the verified and yeah the

20:31 whatever the exclamation. Yeah, that's playable.

20:35 Question, whatever it is. Exclamation point, Yeah.

20:38 Play at your own risk, really. Yes, yes, I can see that.

20:41 Like I don't know if you're going to be able to play

20:45 everything because you're you're technically speaking, you are

20:50 still using a Steam Deck, just desktop.

20:54 Yeah, because you're still using Steam OS.

20:56 You're still using. Linux.

20:58 I wonder if they'll have a desktop mode just like the Steam

21:03 Deck. Oh yeah, yeah, it will.

21:05 It'll be probably just like this.

21:06 I mean if it's running Steam OS. Yeah, it'll have everything true

21:11 that the Steam Decks got. Yeah, just, you know, like I

21:14 said it. It's a It's a beefier version

21:18 of. It but the question everyone is

21:20 asking will it run big steam mode?

21:25 Big picture? What is it called?

21:27 I think it is big picture. Mode, I mean it fucking better,

21:32 I mean. I remember turning on big

21:34 picture mode once and it was like all weird.

21:36 It looked like the PlayStation menu.

21:38 I'm like Oh my God, unless that's not.

21:39 I'm like but Oh my God, what's this?

21:41 I did that too. I was like, how do I get out of

21:43 here? I'm lost.

21:46 Well. Well, now the Big Picture mode

21:48 is literally just the Steam Decks interface and game mode.

21:52 Yeah, So honestly, that's nice. You're right, especially if

21:56 you're using like ATV and whatnot.

21:58 And here's the thing, as as their OS is maturing, more

22:02 companies are going to be like, well, let's start trying to make

22:05 our game supported on this operating system as well.

22:08 Yeah, I mean it. So kind of going forward,

22:11 outside of emulating things that just won't work normally, you

22:17 you could easily make an argument that people are going

22:19 to start making games specifically for Steam OS.

22:22 Right, because I remember maybe 10 years ago.

22:28 Math No, Seven years ago. Eight years ago, looking at, you

22:39 know, a bunch of Steam games, can't remember any specific, but

22:42 looking at Steam games to be like, oh, this one is only

22:44 supported on Windows, This one is only supported on or is like,

22:48 everything was supported on? Yeah, everything basically was

22:51 supported on Windows, Yeah. I and then you have like a

22:54 handful of games that actually worked on Linux.

22:56 Yeah. And and like a little bit more

22:58 on Mac, maybe a little. Yeah, I know a little more on

23:01 Mac, but still a lot of them did not work on Linux.

23:04 But now that Valve is kind of working on Linux, people are

23:08 like, oh wait, maybe we should look into this.

23:10 Yeah, which is interesting. Just that flop flip flop that I

23:16 would have never expected in. Oh yeah.

23:19 You know, seven years. I've, I've been seeing a lot

23:22 more people on TikTok and other social media saying that they're

23:27 actively working to move towards Linux at this point.

23:31 Yes, like people that said that I've never expected to move away

23:35 from Microsoft. They're like I'm switching over

23:39 to Linux just because well, for one, you won't have all the

23:44 bloatware that you have in Microsoft.

23:47 You get to actually have control over your system.

23:52 And for me personally, I switched over my my coding

23:57 laptop from Windows to Linux and it's like revitalized it to the

24:04 point where I can actually use it again.

24:05 So what do you have to like code in Morse now or?

24:08 No, I mean, I mean I'm still able to download Python, Java, I

24:16 can still get C++ when I get around to getting it installed.

24:21 Like quite literally all the stuff that I work with I just

24:24 download from the web anyways. So the operating system doesn't

24:29 matter as long as they have something supporting it.

24:32 And then a lot of the the open source softwares that I use

24:37 already have ports to Linux as well.

24:39 So it's just I get to not have to buy a new laptop?

24:45 Yep, I get to keep my old laptop and I get to make it run for

24:50 longer now. Yes, and at faster speeds than

24:53 what it was when it was still on Windows 10.

24:58 Now, Linux is definitely something that I've always been

25:02 kind of keeping a close eye on. We're getting to the territory

25:06 where I don't know shit because I only know Windows, and even

25:09 then I I scratched the surface fair.

25:11 Fair. Looks like we have to duct tape

25:13 them into a chair and make them learn Linux now, yeah?

25:15 I'll bring my yeah. Open my eyes.

25:17 Yep. Show you a whole new world of

25:19 possibilities just because I mean you.

25:23 You don't have the AI bullshit. You don't have the marketing

25:26 constantly in your face. You don't have the apps getting

25:30 removed. You don't have your data being

25:33 siphoned off every fucking moment of the day.

25:36 You don't have the watermark at the corner of your screen if you

25:40 don't want to pay for the operating system.

25:43 It's just so much. Beaked into it.

25:47 From what Microsoft used to be, and it's also getting better at

25:53 being more user friendly as more people start getting onto it.

25:56 Yeah, 'cause when Linux was in its infancy, very early, it was.

26:01 It was only command line. Yeah, it was.

26:03 It was not user friendly, yeah, but now like.

26:06 It's got a full working yeah desktop in it, like like the the

26:13 way I have it set up right now, it's actually a lot more like

26:15 Apple in terms of layout. Yes.

26:19 And that that that you can easily change too.

26:21 Yeah, yeah, you literally. You can customize Linux to be

26:25 whatever the fuck you want, Yeah.

26:27 That's cool. Like if you wanted to be more

26:29 like a Windows layout, there's distros for that.

26:33 Like that. Yeah, like that.

26:36 KDE. Yeah, or or mine, I think I have

26:39 just basic Ubuntu for just software development.

26:44 It's got more of an Apple layout, but yeah, no, it's

26:48 there's niche use cases for all the different distros and it

26:52 just really depends on what do you want your machine to be very

26:56 specifically good at. Yep.

26:59 This is off topic, but I thought of it and I don't want to

27:01 forget. Did you guys see that there's

27:03 something going on with Ubisoft? So they didn't, they didn't

27:09 release their. I think I've heard of something.

27:14 No, they didn't release their profit this month as well as

27:20 something I didn't hear about this and something else froze.

27:24 I can't remember what, but people are like is it, is it

27:26 time? Is it?

27:28 Is it time? Is it time for the collapse?

27:32 A lot of people here let me try to find out my phone, so fill

27:35 the air. Well, I find it.

27:36 But yeah, a lot of people are just thinking that it's it's

27:39 really funny. I I mean I I know that Shadows

27:45 wasn't a flop, but it also wasn't like the saving magic

27:52 bullet that they were hoping for.

27:54 Yeah. No, they they're, they were kind

27:55 of just too far gone, Yeah, at that point.

27:58 I mean it, it performed about as much as you expected it, besides

28:03 all the controversy. And shit, that's what it was.

28:06 Ubisoft postponed its earnings report and Oh yeah and halted

28:10 the trading of its shares. Oh yeah, they're they're they're

28:13 done. They're they're in deep shit.

28:16 It's either they sell IPS or they just go belly up at this

28:20 point that that is such a big red flag for a publicly trained

28:25 company. Yep.

28:27 Yeah, what is? That especially one that we've

28:30 been watching for years, understanding that it's been

28:33 struggling such pictures. What the fuck did you find that

28:39 Twitter? Yeah, but I was like Ubisoft

28:42 allergic to good ideas, and they're just that dog dog with

28:46 the stupid God damn it. Twitter at it again.

28:55 I'm not shocked. Yeah, I'm not either.

28:57 It's amazing. I am not either.

29:00 But yeah, let's go ahead and steer back towards our our topic

29:05 towards the consoles and stuff. So we've talked about the Steam

29:10 console. Let's talk about the controller

29:13 next. I want it.

29:14 I want it right fucking now. If I don't get it right now, I'm

29:16 going to do things I shouldn't. I want it now.

29:19 So are the D pads, Are they the square bits underneath the the

29:25 joy cons? So that is literally this.

29:29 Steam Decks touch pads. That's literally what they are.

29:32 Oh, so they're touch pads? They're not.

29:35 They're not like D pads, like where you press down on it, you

29:38 just swipe your finger. Yeah, literally, like I said in

29:40 the the Steam Deck, that's what you use for like the mouse and

29:44 everything on the Deck. Yeah, that, that makes a lot

29:47 more sense. 'Cause there's there's like the

29:49 D pad on the right face buttons on the left and then you have

29:53 the sticks and then you have the.

29:56 Yeah, the touch pads. Yeah, the touch pads on the

29:59 inside of the the the grips, right.

30:01 And then you you these controllers also have back

30:05 buttons. On the.

30:06 Oh shit, on the back. So kind of similar to the Steam

30:10 Controller I have right now, but they're they're actual like

30:15 physical. Oh, I see.

30:16 Oh, no, that's kind of one. That's the old one.

30:18 Oh, that's actually pretty cool. What's the new one?

30:20 It's not showing the back of the new one.

30:22 The wireless receiver also acts as a charger, which is really

30:25 nice. It's magnetic so you just clip

30:29 it on it's real fucking goal. That's honestly awesome, holy

30:33 shit. And then it also has like your

30:36 Steam logo button. Yeah.

30:38 And your which is on on the Steam Deck as well, a little

30:41 option button and you think. This thing is a lot of fucking

30:45 control surfaces. Yeah, I see it.

30:47 There's the R4 and R5. What about the blue section?

30:51 Do you know if that's anything? I think that's.

30:52 Probably the rumble because it has HD Rumble in it.

30:55 OK. Yeah, because.

30:57 It's similar. I mean, looking for where that's

31:00 placed, that's going to be more in like the, the, the balls of

31:03 your hands. Oh, I.

31:04 See, we're. Kind of like.

31:05 Grip enabled gyro, that's what it is.

31:08 We're calling it Grip Sense and then it's a new input for Steam

31:11 Controller that enables gyro with capacitive touch hold and

31:15 release to enable and disable gyro aiming aiming.

31:19 Oh yeah, you can also map it like any other button.

31:22 What the? What the?

31:24 Fuck this sounds like they're taking the best of both worlds

31:27 from fucking Xbox and PlayStation controllers.

31:30 My problem is the inline sticks 'cause I like the Xbox layout

31:33 and I think it's far superior so.

31:36 Well, it's got a really good ergonomic.

31:37 Layout. Well, yeah, that's why the Xbox

31:40 controller has always been a PC thing.

31:42 Yeah. Yeah, now I'm I'm used to those

31:45 kind of controls like the sticks like that.

31:47 Yeah, because of the PlayStation, I'm used to it.

31:51 But I do like the I prefer the layout for the Xbox.

31:54 Yeah, yeah. But honestly.

31:56 If the controller and try it or at least if you get it, I'll try

31:58 it off of you and. I mean, I'll, I'll try it too

32:00 seems. Really, really good.

32:02 Yeah, No, I'm, I'm excited for that.

32:05 I wanna. Especially because I remember

32:06 you mentioned that it's got a magnetic joysticks.

32:10 Yes. So it's really resilient instead

32:13 of like the plastic. Oh yeah, Which?

32:15 A lot of the companies that OK. That's what a lot of these other

32:19 companies should be using because I think they're, I don't

32:21 want to say that they're completely immune to stick

32:24 drift, but it's. No hard.

32:26 It's harder. It's like a lot harder to get

32:28 stick drift. Yeah, yeah.

32:30 So that's, that's, you know what they should be doing, because

32:33 I'm sorry that the, the fucking the Xbox controllers we've

32:37 gotten, they could have done so much fucking better.

32:40 Yeah, no, I, I, I think that's more of a problem with the

32:44 fucking Nintendo sticks. Nintendo's had a fucking huge

32:50 problem with it with the Switch. Well, especially the and.

32:53 It was so the joy cons, The joy cons, they always drifted.

32:56 Yeah, and and like $80. It's like go fuck yourself.

32:59 I. Still don't know they didn't get

33:00 sued like it was. I thought.

33:04 I thought they did. They basically came to a

33:06 standstill. It's like if they acknowledged

33:09 it, then they would get sued, but if they didn't, then they

33:11 wouldn't. So like even though the even

33:13 though the information was there, Jack Jack can describe it

33:17 way better, but it was it was basically that's where if they

33:21 acknowledged it, then yes, they would go.

33:23 But like I. It was weird it never happened.

33:27 It was weird, just dragged it out on the courts until whoever

33:30 was suing them couldn't afford it anymore.

33:32 I'm not even sure if it was that again.

33:35 That's simply what they do. I mean, looking at what they

33:39 tried to do with Powell World until Powell World.

33:41 Actually, let's not go down that route.

33:43 We're not going down that route. I know your thoughts on that,

33:46 but I'm just saying that sort of the corporate playbook is just

33:51 outlast the opposition until it's just all gone.

33:54 Every company does that shit. But yeah, no, I'm kind of

34:00 interested in this controller the more that I'm hearing about

34:02 it. Yeah, me too.

34:03 Yeah, I want I. Want.

34:04 I'm not sure how I feel about the like activated and

34:07 deactivated like grip. I'm not sure how I feel about

34:10 that, but I'm sure you can disable that.

34:13 You can shut it off, yeah. If it's, you know that much of a

34:16 problem to shut off. Right you.

34:18 Know yeah, no, I, I, I want to I want to get those and hopefully

34:24 they're not super expensive like I'll be honest.

34:29 I'm expecting them to be more expensive than controllers

34:32 typically are, but at the same time it seems the quality going

34:37 into it is going to justify it. At that point, yes, yeah, like

34:42 if they. Because if they make it more

34:44 resilient and it has a lot more tech built into it, then you can

34:51 justify it as oh, this is a more crafted product than just oh

34:55 we're going to cheaply mass produce these this shit.

35:00 Yeah, no, I if they're like 7080 bucks, you know, like a for like

35:09 how much like a regular controller is for like a

35:10 PlayStation or an Xbox, you know Yeah, I could I'd, I'd buy it

35:17 because, because long term you're saving money without

35:20 having not having. To buy a controller every couple

35:22 of months. Yeah, because companies are

35:25 fucking stupid. But then so moving on I the VR

35:33 headset. Yeah, this is this is the area

35:36 that I was really curious on hearing you guys about because I

35:40 don't have VR and I know you guys do.

35:42 I mean, here's the thing, I only have one VR headset, only ever

35:47 had one VR headset, so my knowledge is limited compared to

35:50 you, Brandon, you've had at least two that I know of.

35:54 I'd be interested in watching videos of it like seeing what

35:59 the actual like when you have it on what that looks like or the

36:02 actually I guess the inside what that looks like like what you

36:06 get to see through. Cause I've talked about this in

36:11 a previous episode. Might be the last one where I

36:14 want to be more immersed in my VR and the the Metaquest 3 has

36:20 circles like basically eyeglasses yeah yeah when, but I

36:25 can still see like me like if it's not on properly I can still

36:28 see like light shining up my nose and all that and in the

36:31 room and yeah. That's interesting with the, the

36:36 PSVR 2, I don't have those problems at all 'cause the, the

36:40 lenses are not like circles, they're, they're kind of shaped

36:44 like for your eyes, I you'd have to see a picture of it, but the

36:48 way it seals to your face, you don't see any light whatsoever.

36:52 It's and it's not uncomfortable either, which is nice.

36:58 It's just that that headset is a lot more demanding on your

37:02 computer. So.

37:03 Yeah, and like, my thing with the Metaquest 3 is that if it's

37:10 weird 'cause I need to have it like really close to my face.

37:13 Like I need to like basically grab my hands and like, push it

37:15 up to my face. If I want to see clearer it, it

37:19 sounds weird, but it makes sense.

37:21 So then I really have to ratchet the, the, the strap on the back

37:24 of my head tight. But then that kind of like hurts

37:26 my head after a while. Have you ever gotten that

37:30 tightening like I? I've had this problem with not

37:33 the PSVR but the Matterquest 2. I've noticed if it's too tight

37:40 back here on the back of my head this starts to go numb.

37:44 I haven't had that happen now. That is a weird ass feeling when

37:47 your head right back here goes numb.

37:48 Well, yeah, but that's because it wasn't designed by humans.

37:52 It was designed for lizard people like Mark Zuckerberg for

37:59 their metaverse. And hello fellow human, I am

38:03 human too. He's going to fuck it, kill me.

38:09 Yeah, sweet baby rays. That's also my.

38:12 Sweet. Oh yeah, I have sweet baby rays

38:15 out on the shelf just like any other normal human would.

38:18 We just put sweet baby rays on these ribs.

38:21 Sweet baby rays, sweet baby. He looks like a what did we

38:25 talk? Alien.

38:27 Mark Zuckerberg. The.

38:29 Owner of Meta Facebook. Yeah, I know that, but what's

38:32 the sweet baby Reyes stuff? Oh you don't?

38:34 You don't remember that from when he was showcasing off the

38:37 metaverse shit? No 'cause I never watched

38:41 anything about it. Yeah, OK.

38:42 Yeah, that's fair. That's fair.

38:44 That is very fair. The the one that I'm familiar

38:47 with was just randomly they're showing off like the scene of

38:52 the room and it's supposed to be like a living room for some

38:58 fucking reason. There's a bottle of sweet Baby

39:01 Rays on the shelf in the background.

39:04 Like, like, like, like that shelf up there.

39:08 Like box shelves, but just the sweet baby rays on display.

39:13 God, that's fucking awesome. Yeah.

39:18 Product placement, I mean. What what what I'm referencing

39:22 is when he was actually smoking these ribs or whatever, which

39:27 actually sounded pretty good, you know, smoke ribs.

39:29 But he had like his buddies there and whatever they're

39:32 outside and you know, sweet baby rays.

39:34 We just put some baby rays. It's like, Jesus, are you trying

39:38 to fuck it? What are you doing?

39:40 Oh God, that makes me think of the Truman Show.

39:46 Where is she? Where Truman's wife is always

39:48 advertising, just randomly. So that's base, yeah, basically.

39:53 What the fuck? He's sitting there and he's

39:54 like, what are you talking about?

39:58 Grace but you know I I'm wondering if this VR headset is

40:04 more of a entry level. I I feel that's what a lot of

40:11 like. Like the console idea and the

40:15 headset idea are more supposed to be entry level.

40:19 Yes, I mean it is also cheaper than the Vive cause the Vive is

40:23 still 1K. Yep, really, it's a good

40:27 headset, but the problem is I don't think it's been updated.

40:30 And yeah, how long it's been out?

40:33 When did it come out? Oh God, I can't remember.

40:37 I mean here's the thing though, do they update the hardware or

40:40 did it stay the same since it came out?

40:42 Oh, you know, they, they haven't changed.

40:44 They. Haven't changed at all.

40:45 Yeah, it is literally the same. Exactly.

40:47 So why is it still 1K if the hardware is?

40:50 Just the same, the PS and the the Xbox Series actually is.

40:54 It would make sense if it came with like the arm and leg

40:56 trackers 'cause I know they have that with the yes, with the

40:59 Vive. That's like a bundle you can get

41:01 or just separate Plus. But you also need to set up

41:04 cameras with that as well. Yeah, it's not just a spatial

41:07 thing. I have a feeling they prick.

41:12 I wonder if they just sort of like, you know, at this point

41:14 now people are using other VR headsets.

41:16 They kind of just said fuck this one, yeah.

41:19 Was it 5 Vive Pro 2? Just the Vive.

41:23 Just the Vive, so I think it came.

41:26 Out. That's the old 120.

41:28 I'm not sure what the new one is called.

41:30 Forgot what the the 24 2015? 2016 The original HTC Vive.

41:37 Con So that's nine years old. HTC.

41:39 Yeah. That's right, HTC.

41:41 Yep, Yep. Yeah, the original release date

41:43 April 5th, 2016, nearly 10 years ago.

41:47 Yeah, then they stopped making phones.

41:48 Yeah, HTC. Yeah.

41:50 Oh, I didn't know. I didn't know.

41:52 Yeah, did not I? Think.

41:55 I had AI, had an M8 HTC. One, he had a mate. 8 My buddy

42:01 Zach had the M. 7 HTC never fully stopped making phones.

42:07 That's large scale. Smartphone manufacturing ceased

42:10 after selling a portion of its business to Google in 2018.

42:15 That's where we got the Google Pixel.

42:17 That makes a. Lot that makes a lot of sense.

42:20 So they sold off the majority of their smartphone business and

42:23 that became the Google Pixel. OK.

42:25 I mean like the pixel I've heard is not.

42:27 It's not bad. Yeah, it's not a bad phone.

42:29 It just seems like another. Smartphone.

42:31 Another smartphone? Yes.

42:32 Yeah. I mean, look at, look at the

42:34 iPhone. They have not changed that much.

42:36 No, I mean granted, I I. Know they've changed.

42:41 They've changed the way the fucking camera looks.

42:44 It looks like fucking shit. The.

42:46 New. I mean I did get a new phone

42:47 recently but I I also had an SE-2.

42:50 Yeah. So that was like, I swear to

42:54 God, it was 2019, which if you look that up, it's going to be

42:57 completely wrong. That's why I'm here.

43:01 I've. Looked it up before like the

43:03 SE-2 is like 02022 or something like that.

43:05 I'm like, no, I've had this since 2019 at least, which is.

43:09 Weird. Yeah, Now 2022.

43:10 Exactly. So I'm not sure.

43:12 Yeah, I'm not sure. What the fuck ahead then?

43:14 No iPhone SCTO 2020 Apple Watch SCT.

43:19 That's what it was 2020 that Yeah, that's what it was 2020.

43:22 But I swear to God, like, I had this red iPhone in 2019 back

43:25 when the pandemic was going on. Yeah.

43:27 But now I have this new phone and I got to say it's, I mean,

43:32 yeah, it's still a lot the same, but there's it's it's mainly the

43:36 iOS updates now is what really changes the phone.

43:40 Yeah, it's more so what's on the phone rather than what is the

43:44 phone. Yeah.

43:45 I will say out of probably a lot of the updates that Apple has

43:50 pushed over the years, this one has probably been the rockiest

43:55 because there have since they changed the UI now it's all

43:58 glassy, which looks great. But they're even just over the

44:05 years they have been, they have been a lot more unstable when

44:11 they've come out. I, when you think of Apple, they

44:16 like really test things and I just, over the years I've just

44:22 noticed that they've just been more lazy on certain things.

44:26 Yeah, I can. I can say that Apple's in the

44:28 best, but I feel like I'm. Have you guys seen the Apple

44:31 Pocket? I'm just like too invested in

44:33 like Apple right now, not like invested or whatever, but like

44:36 I've, I've been on this path for so long, I feel like trying to

44:40 learn Samsung or something else would just be harder than what

44:44 it's worth. Yeah.

44:46 Like, I like, I wholeheartedly believe you could learn it.

44:49 Oh well. For sure I would, but it's just

44:51 like. Not without difficulty.

44:52 Yeah, 'cause I it's a completely different system.

44:56 And granted I can get like if I got a Samsung, there's so many

45:01 other games on their Play Store, whatever it's called, that I can

45:04 get compared to iOS. Yeah.

45:07 I I think what I don't like most about just Apple in general is

45:11 the gimmicky products. Yeah, have you seen the pocket?

45:16 What the fuck is the pocket? I haven't heard of this.

45:18 It is a sling for your phone. Wait a minute, I'm sorry.

45:24 Show me a picture. What?

45:28 It's literally a small pocket sling.

45:32 I could crochet. Put your phone in that you can

45:34 Dingle from your arm. I could.

45:37 Crochet that I'm working on a big ass Dino, right?

45:40 Now and watch that be like 70 to 100 bucks.

45:43 I'm working on a big ass Dino right now.

45:45 I am halfway through crocheting the body.

45:48 Like without any additional like arms or legs.

45:51 The body. This has been since October

45:59 12th. Something like that, yeah.

46:01 So over a month. How much is?

46:04 It oh, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait.

46:06 No, no. I'm guessing 799.

46:10 So there's a short strap design and a long strap design.

46:14 OK, I'm going with a long strap. All right, Brandon, what do you

46:19 think it costs? If this costs like 7-8 hundred

46:25 dollars I'm going to punch a hole in the wall right now.

46:28 And then? Nathan, I said 799.

46:31 So the short strap retails for 150 bucks and the long strap is

46:38 230 bucks. Oh, OK.

46:40 All right. I mean, that's that's.

46:41 Still. Stupid.

46:42 It is still stupid, but it's not as stupid as I thought.

46:45 It's it's. What are the?

46:47 What are the? What are the titles for?

46:49 The section on this is from Apple's website by the way.

46:52 I'm sorry, but the Apple stand for a fucking whatever was 1000.

46:57 Yeah, that's stupid. Was $1000.

46:59 One of the one of the descriptor sections was a piece of cloth

47:05 crafted crafted in Japan. IPhone Pocket features a

47:09 singular 3D knitted construction that is the result of research

47:15 and development carried out at I don't know what the fuck.

47:20 We found out a pattern online we made.

47:22 We bought a machine that could do it and we use that through.

47:25 Inspiration from the concept of a piece of cloth and

47:30 reinterpreted the everyday utility of the brand's iconic

47:34 pleated. Clothing.

47:36 You know what this is right here.

47:38 This is a piece of cloth. Yeah.

47:40 This is yes. That's my dinosaur.

47:43 So I guess the history for it is that the the company that

47:46 they're going with made Steve Jobs famous turtleneck.

47:53 Who the fuck would want that? It serves no practical purpose.

47:58 It's it's. They're trying to make it as,

48:01 oh, it's, it's a part of your fashion trend.

48:04 Speaking of new things, I got a car.

48:05 How about that? Oh yeah, you did.

48:08 On October 30th, the day before Halloween, it was funny.

48:12 I I so I have. I had a 2013 Chevy Cruze funny

48:18 enough without cruise control. Yeah, I know.

48:26 It's really fucking like, are you serious?

48:28 I got in this car. I'm like, you know what?

48:30 I kind of want to, like I told Dad, I kind of want to look at

48:32 Subaru. And then it took me a while to

48:34 actually like, look into Subaru and like actually do this.

48:39 But you know, we go there and he's like, all right, I want to

48:42 check out a Subaru Impreza, a new one, 2025 brand new.

48:50 As soon as I sat in that fucker, it was nice.

48:54 It has like headlights that will turn with the steering wheel.

48:58 It has like lane assist, which I turned off has actually cruise

49:03 control and it will it also has like sensors.

49:07 If there's a car in front of you and you can set the distance

49:09 too, it will slow down to their speed.

49:14 So even if I'm going 60 miles an hour and a car is going 48, it

49:17 will slow down to 48, which is pretty nice.

49:21 And then once that car like moves out of the way, I guess

49:24 goes just go like there's just, it has heated seat.

49:28 There's so many things about this car that I'm just like, as

49:31 soon as I say I'm like, this is it?

49:36 It's awesome. Yeah.

49:38 Going from 2013 to 2025. That's such a jump.

49:44 It's a very big jump and my because like my car had

49:48 Bluetooth, but it was weird. It would didn't even play

49:50 through the radio. It was like for calls

49:52 specifically, it was horrible for for my 2013 car.

49:57 But now my phone just as as soon as you get in the car, it

50:00 automatic connects, it'll pop up the maps being like, oh, hey,

50:04 you usually go home right about now.

50:06 Here's the here's the path to home.

50:08 And then it was funny. I swear to God, I got a new

50:10 phone. And so again, back to my new

50:13 phone. And that Friday I got the phone,

50:17 I was like, oh, go to your local game store.

50:20 I was like, how do you know that?

50:24 Oh, traffic is light. I heard you like Magic the game.

50:30 Really. Here are some of the most recent

50:32 listings. My fucking phone does that shit

50:35 too whenever I'm whenever I'm taking it like it.

50:38 Wasn't totally updated until this phone until it started

50:41 doing like that's a thing. Yeah, it it does it to me.

50:44 When I take Patrick up to superscript in Lakewood, it'll

50:47 be like going to Superscript, you creepy motherfucker.

50:52 Yeah, I am. Let's go.

50:54 So that that opens a can of worms that I want to talk about

50:59 at a later date about just data collection and everything that

51:03 we have. Yeah.

51:06 So it's like, it's nice, that's convenient.

51:08 But at the same time, what the fuck are they actually

51:11 collecting? Which I saw a video about people

51:14 talking about what's actually getting collected and that's.

51:16 Scary, I'm sure. Oh, you don't know?

51:19 No, I can imagine. I, I will say what pisses me off

51:22 about the car and like, this is kind of a minor gripe, but also

51:25 like at the same, I'm not sure how to feel about it at the same

51:29 time. It's like, Oh yeah, like here's

51:32 your location, here's how to get home.

51:33 It's like 11 minutes to home. Sure, whatever.

51:37 There's a button I can press and I can hold and all.

51:39 Like you bring up pretty much bring up Siri in the car and be

51:41 like, oh, play this on Spotify. Yeah.

51:45 And I'm like, OK, take me to blah, blah blah.

51:50 I was like, I'm sorry, I don't know the relocation.

51:55 You motherfucker. If you're saying it's 11 minutes

51:58 to home, you damn well know my. Location.

52:02 Oh, I'm sorry, I don't collect that.

52:04 Sure you don't. But just to give you a preview

52:08 for whatever we do that there are cars that do record.

52:14 I kid you not. Your sexual tendencies, Yeah.

52:18 Wow, yeah. Well, man, that would.

52:22 That would be awkward, huh? Yeah.

52:24 OK, Yeah. For all that sexting and all

52:28 that like. No phone from people do we get

52:31 in their cars from all the the microphones and sensors and

52:39 cameras and then this shit gets passed around.

52:44 Fucking car. Office buildings and stuff.

52:47 Now your car, you know this is when a car start talking and

52:49 shit. You know, the car's rocking back

52:50 and forth. The car's like, wait, what are

52:52 you doing? But yeah, no, that's a topic for

52:55 another day. But I I thought I'd.

52:57 Interesting. Tell you guys about that.

53:00 I just wanted to talk about my new things.

53:01 Yeah, yeah, yeah, definitely. That's no.

53:04 I should have brought that but brought that up at the

53:06 beginning, but I didn't. Yeah.

53:08 No, no, obviously. It's awesome seeing how

53:11 convenient it is, but at the same, at the same time, I'm

53:15 like, you know, there's also some other things to talk about

53:17 that aren't so great about. It I mean, like, I know this is

53:20 for a later episode, but here's like my like 2 second stance on

53:23 it. 10 years ago my data was everywhere.

53:26 It still is everywhere now. What's the difference?

53:28 Yeah, fair enough. But that's the end of.

53:29 That's all I'm going to say. Yeah, anyways, we.

53:32 Can get into it. I forgot there was foam up.

53:35 I know I keep in my just. Hopefully this episode sounds

53:40 better because there's foam on the walls now, Ethan.

53:42 Put up much more foam in the. Room.

53:45 Yeah. Brandon put up the black

53:46 squares. I put up the wall behind me and

53:48 Mark. Honestly I like the wall better

53:50 just because not not he. Hates me, yes.

53:54 Not a quality thing, but I like the the interchangeable black

54:00 and blue. Yeah, that looks a lot nicer.

54:02 Yeah. It's so much nicer, right?

54:05 Yeah, that this stuff, it's thinner.

54:07 It's plus it's old too, so it's kind of like, it's kind of like.

54:10 Yeah, yeah. But oh, so it's professional

54:15 looking. Yeah, yes, I'm sure we could do

54:20 more over there if we got more foam.

54:23 Yeah, do stuff. Which we'll have to talk about,

54:25 but we'll. Do the topic time.

54:28 Is there anything else? We're still good.

54:34 I guess we would. Do you guys still want to talk

54:37 about handhelds this episode, handheld consoles this episode,

54:41 or do we just kind of want to Babble on for a little bit

54:44 longer? I'll leave it up to Brandon.

54:48 I could do either. I'm putting them on the spot.

54:52 Yeah. Dick.

54:56 I mean I got 1. You know you.

54:59 Want to find out? Micro Penis.

55:05 Macro penis Macro penis do. You want pean wah subsidies,

55:15 there's supplements. Geez, you won't need Viagra at

55:20 that point. What do you think, Plank?

55:23 Unfortunately it's only single use though, so.

55:27 Happy 1 hell of a strap on. Oh God, what?

55:34 Moving on. You're moving on the strap on.

55:38 What the fuck's wrong with you? No, we got.

55:42 We went off the rail. Yep, we're going into babbling

55:45 now. OK, I'm going.

55:47 Babble, Babble, Babble, Babble, Babble.

55:49 Babble, Babble God. Damn, I forget about that.

55:55 Well, you don't get paid unless you do.

55:58 I mean, I talked about my crochet dinosaur that I'm

56:01 working on for a month, talked about Magic Gathering.

56:07 I lied. I in last episode, I said I, I

56:11 predicted because plot twist, we recorded that early that I would

56:16 be playing off by now. I haven't touched that

56:18 motherfucking game yet. Oh, and be confused.

56:22 Remember, you talk about and. Then this guy.

56:25 This guy thinks it's the bug brand.

56:28 That was. Funny bug spray.

56:30 That was really funny. Yeah, like you're playing the

56:33 what? Bug spray.

56:34 You're playing bug spray? No, I'm playing the movie

56:38 Hairspray. Idiot.

56:42 What you on the planet? You can add reverb to that

56:49 Ashley pickle holy. Shit now?

56:55 I'm gonna have to add rebirth to that.

56:59 I am so sorry that was. That was awesome.

57:03 That works, man. I'm gonna have some fun with

57:05 that shit. What was that?

57:05 Around 50? I'm looking at probably like 56

57:10 and 56. Probably 50 milliseconds.

57:14 We can. Yeah, we're gonna, we're gonna

57:16 have fun with that. It's been happening all day.

57:19 I don't know. I was sitting at work, you know,

57:22 doing my testing and all of a sudden like, oh, that's a burp.

57:26 The fuck was that face? I had a really good idea for a

57:29 later topic. Oh.

57:30 You'll tell us later. Yes, I will.

57:33 You guys will have to find out when we do it.

57:35 Your face look like you just saw Jesus, you know, and at the same

57:39 time you wanted to eat him shit. Holy shit.

57:45 Maybe we'll see. My body, child.

57:47 No, I think I think you guys will like the topic.

57:50 OK, OK, but I'll. We gotta write that down.

57:52 Yes. Write that down.

57:54 Write that down. Yes, we're gonna have to write

57:55 it down after this episode. Yeah, no, no, going back to what

57:58 I was saying. Yeah, I've been, I've just been

57:59 burping all day. Don't know where the fuck that's

58:01 been coming from. Why are you talking so fast?

58:04 Yeah, I don't know why. I've been working on it 'cause I

58:05 feel. 'Cause I.

58:07 Feel like if I stop talking when I'm burp again and I don't want

58:10 to do that. I don't know.

58:11 It's a Micro Machines guy. Macro machine.

58:14 Macro machine. I'll fuck.

58:15 You. God damn you with this bullshit.

58:18 It's. All trademarked, by the way.

58:21 Why the fuck did you have time to trademark that?

58:24 I don't sleep. That's a problem.

58:28 OK, but seriously though, I wish I was unable to.

58:31 Like in the sense that I didn't have to sleep.

58:34 Didn't have to sleep or eat. I would love that.

58:36 I would still like to. I would still like to like

58:40 taste. Yeah, my.

58:41 Delicious. Things My cousin dated a guy who

58:44 was like that he said, Oh yeah, my boyfriend actually had a

58:49 condition where he can't really sleep, he can't achieve from

58:53 sleep and so he would just kind of lay there in the middle of

58:58 the night just. Oh yeah.

59:01 Does he have that like? I don't remember the name of.

59:07 It I'm just like saying I I wish I didn't require sleep, there'd

59:10 be so much more time. Yeah, to do shit, yeah.

59:15 And I'd have to fucking go unconscious for 8 hours, right?

59:19 Yeah, that, that sounds like that guy's got one of those.

59:24 I it's a, it's a sleeping problem.

59:26 Yeah, Yeah, that. Insomnia.

59:28 Like a greater level of insomnia?

59:30 No. It's it's not, it's not insomnia

59:32 it. Is.

59:33 It is. He can't, he couldn't, he can't

59:36 achieve REM sleep, which is like the real Yeah, you're actually

59:40 unconsciously. Right.

59:41 Yeah, where? Your subconscious rises up.

59:44 So insomnia is more like a temporary condition where, oh, I

59:47 just can't sleep and my body is gonna give out eventually.

59:51 No, he. Literally cannot.

59:53 Physically cannot achieve it. That's like.

59:57 So he he does not have the capacity to sleep.

1:00:01 Was he still tired? No.

1:00:04 So the problem if if it is this, there is a condition like that

1:00:09 that is fatal. Yeah, because.

1:00:11 Eventually you're fucked. I mean you.

1:00:13 You have to sleep. Right.

1:00:15 That's why I didn't wish I required it.

1:00:17 Yeah, but I know it's like, there's also like how you

1:00:19 process things and we don't know why.

1:00:22 How? Your brain heals itself too.

1:00:24 It gave it gives your body and and we don't mind time.

1:00:27 We don't know. Exactly why?

1:00:29 Like, exactly why we need it. But there are like there are

1:00:32 things that we have found. Yeah, I know exactly why.

1:00:34 I mean in it it's because eyes get too tired and body get too

1:00:37 heavy and pillow get too comfy. Heavy is he who requires this.

1:00:42 Yes, Heavy is the man who approaches the hunk Snoo.

1:00:49 The fuck? But yeah, no, no, interesting

1:00:54 fact, he literally could not achieve Restful sleep.

1:01:00 That is so like, yeah, you always make a wonder why.

1:01:03 So I'm curious, have you ever asked or found out?

1:01:06 What about like sleeping agents? Like I can't think of any of the

1:01:12 top of my head. Kind of like melatonin and stuff

1:01:14 like that. No, I'm talking like the the

1:01:17 more effective means like the stuff that doctors would use

1:01:20 that would just conk you the fuck out like.

1:01:22 You mean like morphine? Or you talk about anesthesia.

1:01:26 Anesthesia, yeah, would. Anesthesia work on.

1:01:28 Him. I mean, yeah, I mean, if you're

1:01:30 in like a medically induced cola, there's nothing you can

1:01:33 really fucking. Do OK, good, because if that

1:01:35 didn't work. There's a problem, yeah.

1:01:37 By natural means, this guy could not fall asleep.

1:01:40 OK, OK, Yeah, yeah. Literally just he could not get

1:01:44 his body just shift from I'm in a conscious state to I'm in an

1:01:48 unconscious state. That is weird.

1:01:51 Like why does that? Like what is his mind doing?

1:01:54 Yeah, really. Why isn't?

1:01:55 That, you know, it's interesting.

1:01:56 I don't think it's something in the mind, I think it's something

1:01:59 in the biology, something in the genetics.

1:02:02 You just wonder like why that kind of shit happens.

1:02:05 Yeah, and, and honestly, I thought it was the weirdest

1:02:08 thing. I was like, oh wow.

1:02:09 Human mind and body is odd. Yeah.

1:02:11 Yeah, it's also disgusting too. Yeah, yeah.

1:02:17 No, no, I today, yes. Interesting fact.

1:02:21 Have you ever shit yourself? Geez, actually, right now.

1:02:26 I should add a fucking. Shit like a.

1:02:28 Shark sound look reverb. That too reverb yeah no, as you

1:02:38 were saying. Oh, what do you have the?

1:02:39 Time to to actually like trade like that shit.

1:02:42 I was going to talk. I was like, yeah, no, I every

1:02:45 night I listen to Emma fall asleep and I'm like, I ready

1:02:48 took to do some business stuff and she wakes up trademark

1:02:51 everything. What happened?

1:02:54 To the bank account it. Had like $900.

1:02:56 In it, oh, I just trademarked everything.

1:02:59 Trademark every single word imaginable, I mean.

1:03:02 That's what companies are fucking doing now.

1:03:03 It is what was it there was like AI think it.

1:03:11 Was the company for Warhammer? They tried to.

1:03:15 They tried to trademark the word.

1:03:17 Table. Because it was a part of like

1:03:22 their armor system. And it's like, well, you can't.

1:03:28 Trademark. That common of a word, because

1:03:30 you didn't make the word and I don't know, it's a lot.

1:03:36 It's along the lines of like Facebook trade marking face for

1:03:43 fucking applications. And shit.

1:03:46 I remember that shit. Or React.

1:03:48 Trade marking React. Oh.

1:03:50 Yeah, right. Yeah, that.

1:03:53 Oh God, that was I. Stopped.

1:03:54 I stopped watching that. Maybe before that happened.

1:03:57 Yeah, I don't know. I just got too cringy Cringe.

1:04:04 All right? I'm suddenly dating ourselves.

1:04:11 Well. You're at time.

1:04:44 fucking bone. Jokes and then the chattering of

1:04:47 teeth. You know how great that sounded

1:04:49 on headphones? Every.

1:04:51 Every time. It's like he laughed every.
