Welcome to episode 35 of Tech of a T, I'm as always your host Brodie Robertson and today we are on, what is it, 35, I think the formula is 35 divided by 7 plus 1. That would actually be the mathematical formula, yes. It's episode count divided by 7 plus 1, I think it is. So that would be your sixth appearance. Yeah. Yeah. I think you held up eight fingers. Did I?

I did. I'm actually so dumb. No, no, no, no, no, no, no. What I was doing is three and then five. For 35. Sure, okay. Yeah, we'll go with that. I was like, no, there's no way I just held up eight fingers for no reason.

How you been, man? Yeah, I'm all right. Tired, but, you know. Oh, I know that feeling. I am running on fumes right now. I mean, I don't do anything, so I don't really have an excuse to be tired, but... Yeah. But it's fine.

I just realised I forgot to open up my browser, so I'm going to break everything for just a moment. Nice. I'm going to everything for just a moment. Nice. I'm gonna make that floating. I have a tea today that I don't actually know what it is. Oh, okay. It's just like, I have a, just a box of like leftover tea bags. So this says, Ono Befriend Tea, but it's not spelt tea, it's spelt T-E-E. Uh-huh.

I think it's Kamenmaw, but I can't really tell. I have... I actually do have tea today. Nah, it's rare. I took your... It's called Techova Tea. Yeah, I know. I took your advice from last time, and I bought some ginger tea, but I couldn't find

the apple tea when I first went and looked for some, so I got myself some lemon and ginger tea. Mmm, lemon and ginger is pretty good. I did end up finding the apple one, and I'm not a big fan of that. The lemon's much better. Yeah, I mean, lemon does go better with ginger, just as a flavour combination. But it's a little bit warm right now so i'll drink that later also i got this mug which is pretty cool it is a pretty dope mug i like it i actually get myself more mugs but i don't have space for them when when you get your own place

with your crypto mansion... Mm-hmm. One day. You can have a whole room just dedicated to mugs. Mug wall. I can have it as the backdrop for my videos. Yeah. Just like all the great people that have a fucking shelf full of shit behind them. Look, it's what you have to do as a YouTuber. The thing is, okay, the reason

why people do that is because, so let's say you're I don't know, like, Lewis Spears, he likes to collect Dragon Ball figures and various other figures like that. Because they're part of his set, he can write them off on taxes. Because it's a business expense.

200 IQ play right there. Take that tax man. So if I had like a backdrop of anime figures, I can write those off as part of my set for a business expense. Big brain right there. Big brain. Really big brain.

Biggest brain. This side of. It's going to make a good funny haha but I couldn't think of like I was trying to work a YouTube channel into it and I was like biggest brain this side of the

Linux sphere but that doesn't even make sense not even close this side of the Linux hemisphere oh Discord's just Oh, this side of the Linux hemisphere. God. Oh, Discord's just not showing the volume percentage. That's cool.

Well, I noticed you were clipping a little bit, but that's fine. I've fixed it now. Yeah, that was a bad joke. We'll just move on from that. Good joke, I think you mean. Oh, yeah, absolutely absolutely absolutely perfect joke uh if you notice i look off to the uh the side now i actually have a it took me a while to get get one but i have i have a monitor here oh second monitor yep well i have a tv back there but i can't exactly use most of it but yeah I have a second monitor I bought literally the cheapest monitor I could find because I don't use

it much I just have it there so I can put OBS on it and also so I can watch VTubers while I do work that I should be doing that is actually much more important because I it's very do very very soon i mean my second monitor is literally just like my tv from when i was like a teenager so that's fair what i'll probably end up doing is when i replace my main monitor my main monitor will just become my second monitor because it's it's not a terrible monitor but it's it's not great uh the stand is quite wobbly. There we go. I just moved my desk a little bit. Yeah, everything shakes.

Also, this is an IKEA desk, so I didn't expect much in the first place. I mean, mine's an IKEA desk as well. It's pretty sturdy, though. I've had it for, like, probably nearing 10 years, I guess. And, like, yeah, I think one of the little support things is kind of a bit screwed up now. But for the most part, it stayed pretty stable for that for like almost a decade. So, you know, can't complain. The desk I'm really sad I got rid of.

I ended up giving to my sister and then I think she didn't have space for it and had to get rid of it was. I don't know if you remember these, but like five or six years ago at Officeworks, there was this metal frame desk that had like a, I think an inch thick stained glass top. Does anyone find it? Not off the top of my memory. Officeworks is one of the places that i don't really go to

that's fair in terms of like you know pretty popular stores uh office works is probably that and spotlight i'm like yeah i don't really have any use for you that's fair uh spotlight i bought some fabric for some fabric from that I haven't used yet. Yeah, but besides that, I don't go to Spotlight either. It sort of looks like this one. I'm going to show it on the screen with that button, and I'm going to put it in the Discord chat, which I don't have open.

Okay, well, let's grab that one. In terms of buying fabric, is there really another big, um, kind of store, like, aside from, you know, independent things, is there another, like, big chain store apart from Spotlight? Not that I can think of in Australia. See, this is exactly what I pictured it to be, but I've never seen this before. It was a bit more stable than this one. This one also had a bar on the front and the back, so it was actually really, really solid. And this thing would not move.

It weighed a ton, but it was an absolutely solid desk. Sadly, don't have it anymore, though. Sadly, I'm using this garbage... This Ikea. Whatever, Ikea board. This, this, um... What's the word? Particle board, that one.

Particle board. Particle board desk. I mean, that's, yeah. Yeah. It's fine. It works for the most part i have probably more weight on it than it's supposed to support so it's doing a good job but i would eventually like to get something really nice made mahogany wood oh speaking of that um because i don't actually have that many topics written down today, so when we think of topics, I'm just going to go with them.

They're actually places where you can get custom-made flatpack stuff. That's pretty cool. Custom flatpack. Yeah, one of the guys I follow on Twitter was talking about them before. Like, do you design it yourself and send it off to them? Yeah, basically, you design everything, and they'll just cut it up for you, and, yeah. I don't know if this is the specific one he was using,

but it seems pretty neat, because sometimes you just can't get cabinets that are the right size for you, so... Hey, this is like how the, um... um like when you get a kitchen installed or something like that all of those places will go through businesses like this and then basically you set it up like that so i don't know this is maybe a route it's probably more expensive i would imagine uh yeah i mean it also would be good though because like when you eventually have to move

it's way easier to disassemble something that was like a flat pack to start with compared to like you know a piece of furniture that you just can't take apart at all yeah yeah I've definitely dealt with plenty of that before the worst I have is my

my tall boys. But. I keep moving my mic because I'm like, I need a cough because my nose is like, oh, you know what? Let's just send some phlegm down to the throat. Why not? It's just dumb because I'm not even sick. I just, like, I'm pretty sure I have a dust allergy, and it just, like, sometimes makes my nose, like, hell gross.

Yeah, I've been getting pretty bad hay fever lately, and it's just, it's not been fun because it just, it just makes you not want to do anything for the rest of the day. I love when my eyes get all watery and red and gross luckily i've managed to avoid it on days where i've had to record it usually like picks up just after i finish but so no more no more sick videos can i can just imagine that you're like super just swollen up in red like you've had an allergic reaction. Hey guys, here's this Vim plugin. The first day I actually did this new lighting, I kind of looked like a bit of a tomato because I had my colouring a bit off.

So my background, it actually isn't as blue as it looks in the camera. It's actually way less or whatever color it is. It's way less bright. But because of the way I have this camera set up, it basically blows out everything. And it was overcompensating for the color of my face. It's closer to what it is now, but at least on my hands, it's closer to what it is now but it's at least on

my hands a bit more pale than i should be but yeah i looked like an absolute tomato before so it's not as bad now i'm not i'm not actually this red right now i'm not buying have you like been sick at all like in your you know i'm not i'm not counting the shed videos but like everything from when you recorded inwards have you been sick yet during any of that there was a whole like month or so where i was sick and i was making videos how bad was it though oh pretty bad like i would make i think i'd say like 10 seconds and then cough and then have to start like reporting again but i blame have i talked about i think i might have talked about that story on an earlier episode

about how my housemate got me sick in a bowl of the bong vaguely okay i'll go over it again because we have i think the subscriber count's actually doubled since then anyway or tripled uh which is like up 150 so it's not actually that much of a go it's not like it's actually as many as it sounds like uh basically so at my old place there was a uh bong that was sitting out on the uh the outdoor table and it had bong water sitting in it for like a month which if you know anything about it don't that's bad yeah mosquito breeding ground so he got sick started using that old bong and then like one of my housemates friends he started using that and then he went back the original guy went back and used it again so it was basically just like building up in this

this bong of death and eventually I stood near him for long enough. I got really really sick and Basically, I could hardly talk for two or three weeks and I was making videos through that. It was not fun I think at the time I was doing one video a week or two videos a week So it wasn't as bad as it is now, but I video grind I Yeah, I really care about not getting sick now

I take vitamins every day and I try to make sure I'm getting out as much as I can Because I've tried to record while I'm sick and it's not fun so yeah avoid basically avoid people i want to i want to live by myself at some point that'd be good i mean you don't have to avoid people like if you have a good immune system then like seeing people might actually like assuming you're not going to be catching like fucking a bulba or something like going around and like exposing yourself to people is probably, like, actually a good thing because you're, like, you know, reinforcing your immune system. Yeah, just make sure you have, like, a relatively healthy diet. And even if you have the healthiest diet possible, you should be supplementing because the daily recommended intake for things you just won't hit with your diet is just not possible. So everyone should be supplementing because the daily recommended intake for things you just won't hit with your diet it's just not possible so everyone should be supplementing

uh i was gonna say you know i'm not gonna go um as as deep as as episode 33 um but you know germ theory i'm pretty sure it's real but like at the same time i think only pretty sure i think like the notion of like or if you come into contact with this thing then you're gonna get it 100 is like a bit bullshit um, yeah, just trying to... Oh, my God. Give me a second. So good. Well, let's see.

How can we entertain you guys? Oh, I know. I'm going to... The fuck is he doing? The fuck was that? Entertain the viewers, please. Why the fuck did he try to talk through his door like that? Okay Well while that's happening. I'm going to send a picture on discord and I'll bring it up on the screen as well

It's just the easiest way for me to send it So my housemates are really gross This is a picture. I don't have my Wi-Fi enabled Give me a second So I'm going to say I'm going to show a picture of an onion on the screen. Now, you might think onions are fairly boring. This onion, on the other hand, is not fairly boring. So this onion, there he is.

What the fuck have you sent to me? This onion has been sitting in my pantry for three months, and this onion has started to grow. I thought that other part was a lemon slice. No, that is a single onion, and it has started to sprout. You've actually created... Now, the thing is, this is kind of normal... Sorry?

Just creating new organisms in your pantry over here. The thing is, this is actually kind of normal for onions and potatoes to do. Like, you'll sometimes have little bits growing out of them. Usually you don't have them sitting there for three months, though. So... yeah. This, um, this onion. But this doesn't even surprise me because i have um a full thing of milk in my fridge that's about a week out of date and the thing of salmon in there that's about a week out of date my housemates are gross basically

this reminds me i did have like uh this is ages ago when i was still not well versed in ingredients and stuff but like i bought a bag of potatoes and i think like i think it was to make potato um pumpkin soup and like you can like uh the recipe uses potatoes as well to kind of thicken it out a little bit i'm pretty sure i have a video about it um but uh yeah i bought this bag of potatoes and then like didn't use like three quarters of them and they kind of sat at the bottom of my cupboard for like three months and then i come back and it's not like it's not like oh you know even that big like it looked like the potatoes had grown hair pretty much like there was that many shoots just going needless to say that hasn't happened since well yeah oh i have another example. There's been a whole box, like those one litre tubs you can get.

Yeah. Actually, maybe a two litre tub. Anyway, pretty big tub, like this big, with a banana cake in it. And it's been sitting on the counter for about four weeks. And it's started to grow some sort of new mould on it. That thing must be so stale by now that you could just use it as a brick to build a house.

I think, like, one slice of it was eaten. Yeah, you could probably fucking do it. I don't know. Maybe the mold makes it softer. I don't know. I've never kept banana cake around for that long. Well, yeah. Like, I say that it would be very crispy, but, like... Crispy?

I think for it to grow mould, there has to be, like, some moisture. And, like, if it's been in a Tupperware container, then it probably has, like, kept that inside of it yeah but lord i i don't i don't know what to do with these people every how like okay i've said it before but i'll say it again share housing is amazing but you always have to realize you always have to think there's obviously something wrong if the people you're sharehousing with are in their 40s. Like, there's something going, like, either you're someone who likes the,

the, um, what's the word? The, the traveling life, and you just like going from place to place. Either you're that sort of person, or you have some serious problems that you haven't dealt with in your life. Those are the two people who live in share houses at 40. Like come on. Like yeah I get it's cheaper but at some point you sort of have to actually get your own space even if it's just a very small space you need some space to yourself well like even if you have just like a full-time retail job you can just like pay to rent your own house because when i was younger it was just like me and my mom actually had a full-time retail job and could afford the house fine so i don't know what these people are doing well i know people who work at cole's full-time and they are like they have a mortgage yeah exactly

but i guess there's just like we talk about people being bad with money like every time but i guess it's just those people that spend all their money as soon as they get it and they're like oh shit bro i need to pay rent but i can't afford more than 200 a fortnight so i go to share house will i use my after pay after pay is life bro you see this shit i fucking i just after paid uh psvr i was fucking sick bro i don't even need to worry about it oh yeah i also zip paid like um a new computer i was fucking sick except i wouldn I don't even need to worry about it. Oh, yeah, I also zip-paid, like, a new computer. I was fucking sick, except I wouldn't buy a new computer because I'd buy a laptop instead,

and then I'd also buy the iPhone 12 because, you know, I've been looking forward to that shit my whole life. Afterpay and zip-pay are just legal versions of one-day loans. Or payday loans, that's the word. They're just legal versions of payday loans. Or payday loans, that's the word. They're just legal versions of payday loans. You should not be loaning or afterpaying anything

that isn't like the price of a car onwards. Yeah, that's fair. Yeah, if you're getting, say, like a washing machine, a fridge, that's fair. I can entirely understand why you might want to do that. Most people don't have like $2,000 to just drop on that. Even if it's like $1,000, if it's a fridge or a washing machine, things like that,

those are things that like they're going to stay around for a while and they're going to be something you actually need. But if you're after paying a phone, you're going to replace next year. What are you doing? I mean, for phones, that was probably a bad example.

I'm sure there's people that do after pay phones, but like at that point, just what are you doing? But anyway, um, uh, you've mentioned this a couple times but like phone plans are essentially just like they're a scam what is cash train don't you love cash train oh centrelink coin hell yeah i didn't even notice that uh let's see how how much is the loan cost

something good about centrelink loans though is like if you are the kind of person that like puts yourself into that um centrelink just takes the loan payment out of your um fortnightly payments so you know there's not as much damage that can be done yeah so um this loan with at three months has a maximum apr of 70.65 percent fucking hell so if you um if you get a loan of $1,000 for three months, it will cost you $1,320 to pay it back. That's cool. Fucking hell.

You're telling me that you don't want to be in debt your whole life? Absolutely. Debt debt. Certain people shouldn't have credit cards and shouldn't have things like this that is entirely correct what i was gonna say before i had to go open the door and do my shit um uh i was basically saying how you know i think there's a bit of um a notion of people this might just be me fucking not uh or just a bit of a generalization but i don't really care what i

was gonna say is you know there's some people that think oh you know if you come in contact with someone that's sick you are 100 gonna get, like, if you actually take care of your body and, you know, do what you were saying, like, eating relatively healthy, like, supplementing anything that you're, you know, probably missing out on, you know, actually spending time outside, you'd be, like, amazed how, like, how good it feels to just, you know, go for a walk or something just in the sunlight. Like it's actually really nice.

Yeah, I looked outside earlier and it sort of made me sad that I'm in. So this morning I was recording two videos and now we're going to do this for a couple of hours. It's really, really nice outside. I want to go for a walk. I mean, you can go afterwards. Okay. It's still, you you know daylight savings gang

hopefully the weather doesn't go fucky like it's been lately and it's like oh it's just gonna rain in the afternoon now yeah from delayed winter going on here yeah it's uh what is it going into november and it's 19 degrees right here yeah it's it's been sort of up and down. It went from like, there's been days where it's hit like 30, and then literally the next day is bucketing down with rain. Yeah. Last night when I was leaving work, it was nine degrees. Like, what the f-

It's almost November. It's- November. It's very delayed summer. What's that conspiracy theory called? It's like where the government can control the weather. It's not chemtrails, it's something else. But there's essentially

this thing, this theory that the government can control weather whenever they want because there's a bunch of these kind of, like, hippie gatherings back in, like, the 60s and stuff. And then just, like, the forecast was sunny for the whole week and then it just rained out of nowhere. There are ways you can control the weather.

So things like cloud seeding do exist. Yeah, but more extreme than that. Like, I think one of the more popular things about this theory is, like, you know, satellites that can, like, shoot lasers into the clouds to, like, make them rain or not or something like that. I mean, not saying it's not true but facts I forgot where it is but there's a city in one of the middle eastern countries one of the

really really rich ones where every single Sunday it rains it's sunny all week and then every Sunday it rains because they cloud seed every Sunday to make it rain on that day. Is that just for rainfall purposes? I don't know. They just want it to rain

every Sunday. I don't know why. I presume there's a reason for it, but it's also a tourist attraction, I guess. I mean, like, it would be pretty useful in terms of, like, agriculture, though, because it means you're always getting a consistent source of water. Well, at some point, the problem with cloud seeding is you do actually mess with the... I'm not a...

What if the cloud scientist is? A urologist? Yeah, that one. Cloud-sized fucking weather scientist anyway I know that it does fuck up like it like fucks up the weather patterns in the region or something so city rains

once a week Dubai so yeah no I was completely wrong in the place I was thinking in Dubai it rains once a week. Yeah, so if you... Dubai. So yeah. No, I was completely wrong in the place I was thinking. In Dubai, it rains once a week. But yeah, it messes with the way that the weather works in the region, so

at some point, you're gonna basically make it so it doesn't rain as it should there. I don't know, though. And you're gonna like take a cloud pretty sure the way it works is you find like a cloud that looks like it might rain and then you i think it's like you use silver particles or something that attracts um water vapor to the cloud and it makes it actually heavy enough to actually start raining i think that's how it works so lesson is that silver lining is a real thing yes yes

i've been um watching this uh youtube channel called chubby emu i don't know if you've ever seen him before nope i'm gonna find it he basically does like um these medical videos and uh i love his oh go away citrix i love his um titles because they're like they are clickbait but they're also exactly what's in the video okay let's find some examples. I think one of them's like, this girl did the cinnamon challenge, this is how her body shut down or some shit. It's like, hell click baity, but that's actually what is in the video. And so essentially he goes over these extreme medical cases and medical cases and, like, kind of explains what happens and, like, why it happened and stuff.

A TikToker drank two bottles of Benadryl. This is what happened. A Bitcoin miner heat-stroked in his sleep. This is what happened. Okay. I'm not going to touch this one. The George Floyd toxicology report. I'm sure that one's going to have some interesting comments.

Probably. Dad drank 50 beers every day for six weeks. Fuck. That's goals. One of my favorites is a man ate two pounds of licorice candy every day for two weeks this is what happens with like kidneys or something because essentially there's like um there's a chemical or molecule in um real licorice that like kind of blocks you from producing this certain oh no no sorry it has more of an affinity for the receptors like i think it was his kidneys so it basically stopped him from um filtering out toxins and

shit and then his like whole body just broke down oh jesus but you know i'm not not to be mean or anything but i feel like if you're eating two pounds of licorice candy every day then you fucking kind of get what you deserve well yeah same with the dude who ate or who um so drank 50 beers every day for six weeks like how do you even drink that much like i don't know like you literally have to be drinking like three beers every hour just to even fit that into like the day just ignore the fact that it's beer how do you drink that much water like i don't know how your body can hold that much liquid yeah well something interesting that uh that i've learned from those videos is like um there will frequently be people that like have completely full bladders but they can still drink

more stuff and not like urinate and it's essentially because uh if you have like high sodium in your blood um water gets attracted to salt so the water will actually start going into your cells and you'll like start to swell up and so if you have um a lot of sodium near your head your brain will swell up and you just get a seizure and die oh fuck it hell jesus so yeah that's like something is like if you um have like drank a lot of water and you just can't urinate then you know go to the emergency room because you're probably gonna have a seizure jesus okay wait we go all the way back three years ago he was still doing the exact same titles but doing

completely different videos so uh yeah i bought this pc for 750 in 1999 years old 2017 okay that hey if you have a style that works i can go with it but clearly the uh the newer videos the newest videos do much better yeah like he was doing some like i don't think he really found his niche until recently. Hey, it works. Clearly it works. But yeah, I recommend giving his videos a go. After you've watched a couple, they get kind of repetitive, but it's still fun to like see. It's kind of like, I don't know if you've ever watched House,

but it's pretty similar in that, in a way. It's like, oh, you know, the structure's always the same and the information's kind of similar, but it's fun to see each new thing, each new case. The extent of House I've seen is memes. That's all I have. I mean, that's... That's alright.

Since we're talking about channels, do you know who Simon Dan is? Never. No, I don't think I've heard of him. You would love Simon Dan. He's right up your alley. He does videos

debunking conspiracy theorists. Okay. Shown us a link. Here you go. And just before I came on to this recording, I was watching a video that he did a few months back on a dude who doesn't think that penguins exist. Penguins? Yes, penguins. He's got one recently Mount Rushmore is made out of heavy paper Paper mache Mount Rushmore Giants that roamed the earth

In this video The guy believed that All of these like Really ancient structures earth based in this video um the guy believed that all of these like like really ancient structures like we even uh in a lot of uh middle eastern countries there's like lots of really really old buildings that have existed for like thousands of years this dude thought they were like the remains of dragons so this this channel is like right up your alley. Oh, the woman who wraps her phone in tinfoil because of 5G. I'll have to check that out.

It's a... It's nothing but old stars. Dude, that's actually a fact though. Have you watched, Gas No Brakes? All Gas No Brakes? No. He's essentially just a guy that goes to different events like

protests and gatherings and stuff and he just does interviews with the people there. He did one of a Flat Earth convention. It's beautiful. I would highly recommend watching that video i'm sure youtuber really likes giving this guy ads probably probably midwest fur fest god this he's only been doing this for a year wow yeah he's really taken off but i think that's

just like because he has such a good little core um concept that he can just keep doing i have seen a couple of other people doing this sort of stuff as well but um most of them tend to get fairly lazy with it they'll do a couple of them and then like oh my channel's taken off and now i'm just gonna shift over to something else yeah but it's cool that he's actually sticking with what he's doing i i appreciate uh another good reason um another reason why i like him is because, uh, he doesn't go in there with like, you know, um,

trying to incite like, uh, a debate or anything, or trying to get one or trying to present one side or the other. He literally just goes there to interview the people, trying to let them talk, destroy the libtards. Yeah.

It's not fucking Steve Crowder being like I'm gonna go trigger some fucking liberal snowflakes on this college campus change my mind but I would definitely recommend all gas and air bikes he's a very good channel I'll have to check that one out um yeah I don't know if there's any other channels a very good channel. Oh, we'll have to check that one out. Um, yeah, I don't,

I don't know if there's any other channels I've been really watching a ton of lately that I particularly want to mention. Let's see. What do we have in here? Let's go to my YouTube. Uh, no, it's,

it's mainly just lots of hollow live stuff. Yeah. It's lots and lots of hollow live. Uh, I, yeah, live stuff yeah just lots and lots of hollow live uh i yeah i haven't really been watching any specific person i'm kind of just like oh if this comes up in my recommended i guess i'll just watch it yeah i um i've just been sort of shifting around what i'm watching lately like i i don't really have anything. It's just like, okay,

here's something that pops up in my, my recommended that I think sounds sort of interesting. Let's just watch it. I watched a video not too long ago about wall street bets. And then I watched like three or four other videos on wall street bets. She's like, okay, this is a weird fucking subreddit.

That's how they get you. Oh, for anyone who doesn't know what WallStreetBets is, basically, it's a subreddit where people talk about investing. And it's not investing sensibly. It's like all or nothing on Tesla stocks. Will it rise? Will it fall? Am I going to go bankrupt today?

That's what Wall Street Bets is. Why not? Why not? Some people have made thousands of dollars. Some people have lost their house. Gotta have some fun, don't you? Of course. Personally, I'd...

Oh, no, you go. Personally, I'd rather play poker, but... Yeah, I don't know if I've talked about it before on here, but I learned my lesson for doing gambling stuff when Counter-Strike was at its peak of gambling sites and things. I don't think you said this, actually. Yeah, well, I... and things um i don't think you said this actually yeah well i bet yeah i gambled my way up from like ten dollars to like a hundred dollar knife and then i lost it the next day and i just like repeat this and then um i unboxed a knife that was worth $3,000 plus.

I got scammed from me because I was a fucking dumb child. Oh, no. So, you know, that definitely has destroyed any notion of me actually gambling. Yeah, no, I've done a couple of things for just like for fun really nothing where like actual money is at stake like maybe a couple of dollars really but i i don't see the appeal really it's like if i want to blow my money there's much more fun ways to do that like i can i don't know let's just drop a hundred dollars at tons of fun or something that sounds like a good day that would be a good day myself

some tickets to buy a ps4 um yeah gambling isn't like about like the really the experience of like oh i'm just gonna throw money at this it's more so like oh how much can i win oh shit i'm on this bro i'll just keep going because like it acts uh in a it tricks your brain into producing dopamine for some reason and so people just get addicted to it and that's why you know people lose their house well it's a um people like to see numbers go up this is why like well this is part of the reason why as call of duty progressively went on like in the first games you would kill someone you get a point then later on you get 10 then 100 then a thousand the bigger numbers like the bigger numbers get, the more people get excited about them. The same is true with gambling as well. Actual fucking stupid ape brain gets excited about an arbitrary number.

Put a fucking another zero on it, mate. So much more dopamine. But literally is like, bro, your YouTube channel subscriber count is literally just a fucking count of numbers. I'm well aware, yes. I look at my statistics way more than I should. Because this is exactly what it is. I've gone full boomer. I know I've talked about this as well on the podcast.

About, you know, I don't like scrolling on social media apps. No, that's fair. But I kept getting fucking phished in to do it. I was like, oh, no, I'm just checking my notifications. And then I'd scroll for like a minute and then it would come to. And, yeah, I've gone full boomer. I just deleted them off my phone. So.

What do I have on my phone right now? Let's find out so obviously i have discord i have instagram because you can't fucking post to instagram from desktop yeah like that that is how they get you um i i don't look at instagram i literally i open up instagram post a picture of my dog and then i close it that's all you get oh that's a pretty awesome cup yeah it's a smith's cup oh nice so um we got probably about i think literally we got like 15 of them um because uh they were like they were eb games exclusives but not enough people bought them so they just put them down to two dollars and like fucking bro these are good

quality cups that's cool i don't know when i last walked into an eb games it was a while ago i don't know like unless you're going there it's kind of just sad just like walking around and just being like oh here's all these games that like I kind of wish I could get but I'm not going to my problem is that I can get them

like I have the money to get them and I get them that's why I don't walk into an EP games because I don't have time to fucking play them. Because on my shelf there's so much shit I just haven't played. Yeah you have a ps4 and you haven't like played any of the games. No I haven't. I'm gonna start streaming though and then I can justify it. Business expense. No I want to start streaming anyway, and I want to play the games.

There's just some fun stuff in there. Especially when it comes to JRPGs. Like, I can't find, like, a hundred hours to sit down and just play something. Yeah, I couldn't do that to myself to begin with, though. Like, I have the time to do that to myself to begin with though. I have the time to do that but I just don't want to play the same game for

that long in such a small short of time span of time. Yeah, that's entirely fair. I think the last game I finished God, that was a while ago. Maybe whenever I played Final Fantasy X,

the remake of it, like, three years ago. Interesting. I mean, I've never really been able to get into, like, JRPGs. I just find... Especially, like, turn-based ones, to like JRPGs I just find especially like turn based ones I find them just to be very boring yeah that's fair

I'd much rather play something that's kind of like I control everything which is why I really like platformers and I guess Bloodborne and Dark Souls technically are jrpgs but not in the traditional sense yeah they're much closer to a western game yeah those bloodborne is like one

of my favorite games so um i think that's just uh proof that you know not not all RPGs are the same, of course, but that's kind of common knowledge. Speaking of, um, platformers, I've rediscovered a game that I just didn't, I've been trying to look for the name for years and I just couldn't work out what it was. Um, have you ever heard of a PS2 platformer called Scaler? I don't know. Can you send me, like, a picture of the box art, maybe? Yeah, I'll do that.

Basically, it's about a dude called... Actually, what? Okay, Scaler. I'll find the description of it and I'll send you... Here's the Wikipedia. That'll work. Yeah, well, you can't actually trust Wikipedia. I remember seeing this game at, like, my fucking blockbuster,

but I don't think I ever played it. Okay, so, Scaler. It follows the story of a 12-year-old boy called Bobby Scaler Jenkins, who was a self-proclaimed lizard freedom fighter. Bobby one day stumbles upon his next door neighbor's evil plot to take over the world by using huge mutant lizards. His neighbor Luger takes Bobby captive and zaps him with a bizarre bolt of blue lightning,

changing him into his lizard form, Scaler. Luger aims to take over every dimension in the multiverse with his mutant lizard army, with only Bobby Scaler Jenkins standing in his way. Basically, this game is about a dude who really likes lizards, and lizards control the government. Is this not a documentary game? I never finished this game as a kid because I was garbage at games, but I want to go back and play this. I'm going to have to find a ROM for it

and emulate it. Who is going to be our Bobby Scaler Jenkins? Is Alex Jones our Bobby? He's taken down the lizard government, but little does everyone know he is a lizard himself the thing is he likes the lizards as well he just doesn't like the um the i don't know what the

fuck this it's a the rating for is peggy seven plus don't expect a complex story here. But, yeah, it looked tragic. It actually had fairly decent ratings, surprisingly. But, so, reception. Scaler received mainly positive views. It was praised for high production rates and gameplay, but some reviewers criticized the game by saying

it had an unexciting plot and simple design. Like, yeah, it's a game made for seven-year-olds. What do you expect? Bro. The PS2 has some really good platformers on it. I've kind of missed those days. Yeah. I miss platformers, too.

Most of the platformers now are 2D indie titles. We have, like, a couple of things that are inspired by older things, but you're not getting any of those like AAA platformers like you did back on the PS2. We'd have things like the Jak series or Spyro doesn't really exist at this point. You had things like Rayman as well, obviously Scala, the Tak series, series things like that all of those are amazing

oh sly raccoon that as well i mean like you could say ratchet and clank because that's still around but that's yeah platforming hasn't really been the focus of those games since the the ps2 ones yeah it well even then it was sort of more about just here are really big guns yeah like one and two have some actual platforming segments but like three onwards it's like majority of it is a third person running gun so well yeah especially not saying that's bad but no it's definitely not i think the game actually like it's a lot of fun. Especially when you get to things like Gladiator, though. Gladiator is where it's just like, nope, we're not a... You can jump, but it's not a platformer at this point.

Did you actually play Gladiator? Or I guess... What was the American name? I don't fucking know. Deadlot. Yeah, that one. Did you ever play that? Yeah, I did play it, but it definitely was one of my least favorite

because I preferred the more platformy stuff. Like, 1 and 2 are still my favorite ones. Yeah. But Deadlocked didn't do it for me. And also, like, I'm pretty sure there was only 8 or 9 guns in that game because they could all level up, like, only eight or nine guns in that game because they could all level up, like, 100 times. But I found that to be kind of not as interesting. Yeah.

Yeah, there was level-up elements in the older games, but they were a bit less of the focus than in Gladiator. But I'm pretty keen for the new one that's going to be on the ps5 because they haven't released a ratchet and clank since 2016 and even then that one was um it felt pretty rushed just because it was a movie with them yeah but like it was still fun but you could tell that they didn't put as much like love into it as um some of the older ones i didn't actually realize this was coming out uh maybe i'll have to get a ps5 and play games that i don't have time for actually when the ps, when the PS5 comes out, I'm going to have plenty of time.

Yeah, how's, um, do you have exams this semester? I'm fucking happy I don't, because I am at the point now where I'm thinking I'm just going to have to half-ass some assignments, because I don't have time. Mm-hmm.

Because I still have a, um, third, uh, VR assignment which I haven't started yet and that's due in like three weeks. I mean, the funny thing is, is like, even if you ended up getting a C on all of your courses, you'd still get like a HD average for your degree. Yeah, I actually don't think I need to submit anything at this point. I can just fail the rest of my assignments and still pass so i'm not stressed or anything it's just whether i decide to put in that effort no i was so glad that i didn't have exams my last semester because at that point i was like holy shit this is like actually torture did you have four no you would you don't do four courses in your last semester do you

no i had i had three like i had it project life drawing and cloud computing i think was life drawing really taking up that much time um no like you literally life drawing was one of the easiest courses and it was also one of the best courses I ever did. Because you'd go to the class, which, you know, granted was, like, three hours straight of just drawing. But, like, if you like drawing, it's fucking awesome. So that makes up literally, like, 85% of your grade is just all the shit that you draw in class. And then the other 15% is you had to keep a weekly journal of like two pages, which is basically just recount of what you did and how it applies to these different concepts that you were learning. it applies to these different concepts that you were learning and then um you had to research other people that did life drawing and compare how they approached the technique compared to you

so it was really easy but it was a really good course i don't think we've ever talked about that one okay explain i i never really knew what this course was. Explain to the people what the hell the life drawing course was and why someone doing software engineering decided to do that. So, if you don't know, okay, of course you fucking wouldn't know. I have one subscriber that goes to mock. Goes to fucking UniSA. In a degree, you get, um well i got one elective which means you it's a you can

do any course from any um discipline that offers itself as an elective and so life drawing is an art course and essentially what it is is drawing naked people. So there'd be a naked person in the middle of the class and all the people would be in a circle around them. And you draw the person in the middle using different mediums and different techniques and stuff so we start out by using just like these giant pieces of paper basically that I think they are a zero pieces of paper so they're just massive they take up a whole easel um that's taller than pretty much everyone there and you use uh compressed charcoal and you kind of just uh you start by sketching out the people like with um basic shapes so like heads the circle and then you know kind of box in the body uh and then like

you know you can move on to other stuff using like fine liner pens. And we used ink and paint and stuff. And yeah, using different techniques. So like trying to draw this person all with one line without like ever taking your pen off of the page. That's a pretty common one and yeah basically just building up this skill of how to it's less about drawing people themselves and more about training your eye your eyes to be able to draw anything that you look at because you'd learn how to follow lines of an object and how to break it down into its individual shapes.

That's pretty much what it is. I thought it was a really good class because I actually learned something while I was having fun, which I can't say about half of my classes. Yeah, that's entirely fair. You actually finished at a great time because this year has been a massive waste of time like people talked about it before but you'll see a lot of people saying this that basically this

year is not just at uni sa basically at every uni you're not learning anything you're just you're basically you're just handing up assignments and then doing the next assignment that's all that's happening because you don't really have in-person classes you're losing out on that and yeah it's just it's just a waste of time this year i mean tutorials were already pretty painful to sit through just because like i remember in you know at least half of the class in-person classes i would go to that weren't lectures. I would be one of the only people that would ever, like, participate in the class shit. And it was just painful because it's like, oh, I know the answer, so I guess I'll put my hand up.

And then you're like, can someone else join in? And I can't imagine, like, it's probably so much worse as well when you add, like like Zoom into the equation. Why don't you bother with the Zoom classes? Because it just doesn't make any sense. Yeah, it's basically just watching a lecture again. And when we do have in-person classes, they're just like, you have to be like separated really far.

Otherwise security is going to bother you about it. So you can't really do proper group work either. So yeah, you finished at a great time. Luckily, none of my courses were super heavy on group work this time. It was mainly a lot of individual stuff, and any of the group stuff was basically just... I had research methods, which was I had to do a group uh research paper so we just broke that down into sections then grouped the section together it's not like we had to actually

discuss stuff to make sure you know things lined up properly i mean not that it would matter anyway because like half the time the group members don't show up to meetings. To be fair, that class I had Kenley, Matri and Corey in my group. So I think I was fine for that one. We could pick groups for that one. So it made it easier. Yeah. Also Sam, yeah.

Sam was the dead weight. Someone has to be. I understand this someone has to be I understand this is going to be the same rant that everyone has ever done about group work but like I understand being put into random groups because you know in real life

you're not going to get to choose your groups or whatever but like also in real life you're not going to have some fucking dumb cunt that doesn't know what they're doing there's going that's gonna go to the audio people oh my god okay yes go on no that's all i want to say oh mate what are you doing i don't have i don't have 200 subs don't scare them all away but like okay so the thing is if when you choose your groups you still have to show that you can work as a team it's just you're working with people that you know are going to actually fucking do the work

and not just sit there. Yes, that is my complaint. Well, yeah, any decent manager wouldn't put people who don't know how to work together in the same working environment. Like, that's not going to happen. Exactly. Yeah.

You could check the topics. The topics. Yeah, I said at the start, I don't really have that many. I just haven't had time to do topic things. Yeah, so this... Anyway, we'll stick on the uni topic for just a bit. This semester, I'm doing big data. Oh, I...

That episode hasn't come out yet where I talk about how I launched a crusade against my lecturer, but I have an update for it. So you don't know about it, but people, when they listen to this, will know about it. I'll give you a rundown. Basically, one of my lecturers decided that he doesn't

know how to calculate an average. So, how to calculate mean, you know, total divided by count. I'll show you the formula I sent to Brian. Is this the same guy that was

changing the marking criteria as he was going? I don't remember. Maybe. What the fuck is this formula? Ah, here it is. So, here. This is the formula he wanted us to use to calculate the mean,

because basically what we're doing, we're calculating the mean as we're actually updating the value, so every time you increase the total, you have to recalculate the mean, which is not how you calculate a mean. What the fuck? Why? I'll put it in.

What? So, it's on the screen right now. For any audio listeners you didn't see last week it is uh mean times by count inside of brackets plus item inside of another set of brackets divided by inside of brackets count plus one why is timesing mean with the count? I don't know. Okay, this formula does work, but it introduces massive floating

point errors, and it's just really slow. Basically, what we had to do was loop over a user database, and basically find the average age of all the female users, average age of all the male users, and I think how many users

in the database. Not complex stuff. But his answer was that because we're working with big data, mug data, my favorite buzzword. Actually, biggest buzzword.

Data. I don't know if you ever watch chamchong with these big news but you do big data no i haven't um anyway he was saying oh but if you if you just calculate a total and then divide it by the count at the end it might overflow your integer except python has unbounded integers which which... So 256 bytes is, I think, like a hundred digit number. So I think you'll be fine. Anyway, I was basically like, don't fucking mark us like this. You don't know how to mark a mean in nicer words than that. And then I was like, okay, I'm just going to find everyone

who basically got marked wrong and I'm going to send it to the course coordinator and we're going to get a remarking. I haven't sent the email yet, but a few hours ago, I got an email saying, marking for this assignment has been changed. So he's gone and fixed all of the marking

because I think he just didn't want to deal with the course coordinator, which is, that's fine by me. Thing is, I didn't care about my marking being wrong. My problem was that people called him out for it in like the actual class. Like people like Ken Lee and Corey, all of them called him out for it. And he was just like, no. It's like, don't, don't fuck with my friends or i will fucking

destroy you like mark me wrong i don't care but when every single programmer is telling you that you're wrong and Just, like, seeing that formula just hurts me. Because, like, I just think back to database essentials and you're like, bruh, it's literally like... But yeah, this formula will work. Look, here's a column.

Add it all together and divide it. It will absolutely work. It's just really slow because you have to do multiple divisions. Like, so let's say you have six million records. You'd have to calculate six million divisions instead of one. Obviously that's slower. But also because of what it's doing here, it's gonna be basically dividing into a floating point number, and every time you divide a floating point, basically you introduce more floating point number and every time you divide a floating point basically you introduce more floating point errors

so it becomes horrendously inaccurate. Oh well. But hey, I got one mark for it so I don't care. That's all that matters. That's all that matters. Except that assignment was worth like 5% so it didn't actually matter.

It's a principle. 5% So it didn't actually matter It's a principle 5% is 5% Yeah Speaking of different topics Yes I wanted to talk about this last time but I didn't But I have Bro what the fuck You walk into a doorknob bro

No this is from at work. We have like big... When you get the dog food cans, they come in like big slabs, and I like to lift them upside down, slice the bottom, so they're leaning on my arm. Anyway, yes, topics.

I was saying, yeah, so I stopped running, because I remember I said how I was doing couch to 5k. But essentially, so this is a whole story. This is going to be not not conspiratorial, but not supportive of, uh, establishments, I guess. So basically, uh, I was doing my running and everything was fine. And then, um, I was getting this rash thing on my shoulders and it basically made a very just dry and super itchy. So I like oh well this is annoying but i kept

pushing through it when i was running and i went to the doctor and i was like hey can you fix my shoulders please because they're just like fucked and i've been dealing with this for how long like um i i had had this before um but it was slightly different than last time. I'm like, hey, can you just, you know, do your thing? And I got prescribed antibiotics for some reason, even though I was, like, super sure. I was like, yeah, this is, like, a fungal infection, not bacterial. But anyway, I was like, okay, i guess i'll just take these and so i did and they like fucked my stomach bacteria super bad because i i don't know if you know that but antibiotics can

do that um if they're strong enough and for the longest time i didn't make the connection because i didn't know that going into it so i kind of just had this month where like if I ate anything I just feel sick and like I just my stomach could not deal with eating anything that wasn't like playing past and so you know trying to and it didn't make the shoulder thing go away it just made it worse and so I was trying to do running it didn't make the shoulder thing go away, it just made it worse, and so I was trying to do running while having fucked shoulders and a fucked stomach, and I was like, dude, this is just not it, so I basically stopped that, and I went back to the doctor, I was like, hey, this is not working, like, you need to, you know, refer me to, like, a dermatologist or something and the person's like yeah yeah we'll do that

do you want a private or a public one i'm like uh i guess just a public one because you know i don't want to pay like 200 just to be told here's a cream that you need to go buy and so you know i waited for like a month and i was meant to be sent a letter by this public dermatologist place and i didn't get one i was like oh so i go back to the person she's like yeah i'll just fill you in for another one i'm like bro i'm i'm dying here like it got to the point where i couldn't sleep on my side because it would um aggravate the shit that was on my side because it would aggravate the shit that was on my shoulders. So I couldn't sleep properly. I couldn't eat anything.

I think around that time that I went back to file another thing, I was like, oh, I'll get some probiotics. Because I asked the person, they're like, yeah, just get some probiotics. I'm like, oh oh what one i'm like well yeah i'm not really uh well versed in that area you just get whatever i'm like okay i went and talked to pharmacists got these probiotics and yeah started taking them and they fixed everything because so this this fucking doctor basically like destroyed my stomach without telling me it was gonna happen um didn't fix my shoulders and then so eventually i'm like okay this is

actually fucked i'm just gonna go to a different doctor do you actually remember what they were called because i can bring up the side effects because we have the internet the antibiotics yeah oh i do not oh damn okay but like uh anyway i'm almost at the end of the story and so i go to this different doctor i'm like like, oh my god, please, just, like, give me a referral for a private one, I don't care at this point, uh, yeah, a private dermatologist, and so I did that, and I had to wait a month, because that was the, the closest booking, I was like, what, well, if the private one is this, like, far away, then the public one must be, like, even more fucked, but fucked but you know the other doctor didn't tell me that would have been nice to know how long I had to wait for

four months yeah and so eventually exactly what I said before I went to the place paid like 150 to be told oh here's a cream to go buy and fixed it so yeah anyone who wants to To be told, oh, here's a cream to go by, and it fixed it.

So, yeah, anyone who wants to praise Australia's public healthcare system, there you go. I mean, I'd still praise it because I don't like... It's nice to not have to pay every time I get a check-up. I'm like, America would be like, oh, I went to my GP to see if I have cancer and I have to pay a thousand dollars. It is nice, but it's not without its problems.

But yes, uh, I'm quite sure unless you go with like a private GP, you're not going to be getting a hundred percent sound advice. So how long ago was that happening this uh i think it was i got this the skin thing probably i want to say around I can't think. May, I think. Okay. And so it's only recently, last month, that I got the skin shit to go away, I think.

Right, okay. Jeez, okay. Painful experience. Yeah, sounds like it. Yeah, I have wrist problems I should deal with at some point just from older injuries at work uh just not dealing with them um there's like a little a little bump in here and if i put too much weight on it it hurts a lot so yeah that's probably not good no it's not oh not. Oh, I know what it is. I just haven't dealt with it.

It's a very common problem when you're lifting stuff in ways you shouldn't be lifting it. Because certain supermarkets don't have proper OH&S rules. Even though they have them, they just don't enforce them. So, like, oh, you need two people to lift a pallet. Except you have to lift a pallet sometimes and you're the only person in the store so yeah fun times um hopefully it doesn't come back hopefully it stays good uh yes i hope so but the dermatologist guy gave me like five repeats of this cream so even if it does come back,

I can just be like, yeah. How much did the cream cost you? Uh, so anyone outside of Australia that doesn't know, um, Medicare, which is just like,

um, public healthcare is, uh, you get medicine for way cheaper. So it was $25, but I'm pretty sure I got it for $5. Well, still not that expensive then even so. Yeah yeah it's not. Something interesting though that I was looking up is I know people that have antidepressants and in Australia it's pretty much the same price as the cream it's like 25 or 5 dollars if you have make hair um

but in america those same antidepressants cost like a couple hundred so i didn't realize how fucked it was there but essentially like i saw this good uh 4chan story not too long ago i didn't fully um connect with it until i found that out it's like um uh for those of you that don't know 4chan stories are usually just like dot points. And it's like... For anyone who doesn't use the internet, no. Yeah. Be me in dead-end job, hate myself, try and kill myself,

get saved, have to go to hospital, have to pay... Oh, get put on antidepressants, have to pay $10,000 hospital bill, have to pay monthly $10,000 hospital bill, have to pay monthly $1,000 hospital bill, don't have enough money to support myself properly, can't kill myself because I'm not

depressed anymore. But like... Fucking hell. Yeah, the American system is fucked. You're talking about the land of the free. Land of the free. I do like their guns, though.

Their guns are nice. I've got my cilantro. My herbs. Cilantro is my favorite herb. That accent changed just then. Where did that come from? Yeah, I don't know. Don't ask me.

Oh, Lord. Because you sent that lizard game. Yes. I clicked on the lizard Wikipedia page. Aha, okay. And there's like a picture of gecko's fingers which like can suck onto stuff, looks pretty cool. I'm gonna, okay.

I'll send you the link. I think I can find Wikipedia. Oh yeah, there we go. I'll send you the link. I think I can find Wikipedia. Oh yeah. But I'm sending you the actual picture though. Oh okay, yep. Ah no, I've got it.

Adhesive pads on... Adhesive pads enable geckos to climb vertically. Huh! Those are pretty cool looking. Why don't we have those? That would be pretty cool. We got these, like, boring fingers that don't really do much. They got these fingerprints on them.

If I couldn't put that shit on my feet, it's not like... Oh, actually, I was gonna say, it'd be fine if you were wearing shoes, but if you were just, like, barefoot, you'd just you'd just get sucked to the ground as you were trying to walk. Oh, I know geckos can clearly walk around on the ground, so... Okay, maybe they can just turn it off. I don't know, maybe you need to put a certain amount of force on them or something. I don't know.

I don't know how these work. Yeah, I didn't think that one through very well. Not really, did you? That's another picture of just two skinks mating. Some lizards, including the Gila monster, are venomous. That's not a fucking lizard at that point. What the hell is this thing that's terrifying

look at this big dinosaur Gila monster ugh, what the hell yeah that's, is that not just a crocodile I don't know I feel like it's probably closely related to a goanna Is that not just a crocodile? I don't know. I feel like it's probably closely related to a goanna.

Let's find a picture of a goanna. Australian goanna. Have you... Okay. You probably haven't. I just realized you haven't lived in a rural area. Have you... Even in a zoo. Have you seen a big goanna? No. Okay, because

these things are like fucking terrifying. Yeah, here we go. That's a, that's a good picture. Fucking hell, that is, oh my god, I don't care Telegraph, let me just see your stupid picture. Can't believe that they allow there to be a lizard Wikipedia and not have the government as a tab. You need to find some of the alternatives. Here we go. Like, looking at a goanna without it being

next to something that you know for scale, you can't really tell how big it is. These things are actually fucking terrifying. This is not something you'd ever want to cross paths with. Episodely warning of this is not good for audio listeners. Bro, imagine actually coming home

and you have a crocodile attached to the side of your fucking house. Okay, so for anyone who doesn't know what a goanna is picture a crocodile that can climb walls and can also run really fast and isn't a moron basically that's a goanna and the picture we're looking at right now is a picture of a goanna basically like spider-man up against someone's fucking wall yeah i've um back when i was in queensland there was a i think a meter and a half goanna that ran across the yard in front of me i was like oh fuck i'm gonna fucking stop i don't know what to do the yeah uh these things are actually terrifying.

I love this picture. Here's another one we have. No, copy image address. Like, look how fucking big that is Malaysian also the title for it is Malaysian man spots Godzilla monster lizard chilling on house gates

and clicks a selfie Godzilla monster Godzilla yeah if you see a goanna don't go Godzilla monster. Godzilla. Yeah. If you see a goanna, don't go near it because it will fucking murder you. This is no, like,

frill-necked lizard. This thing is, like, an actual dinosaur. Modern-day dinosaur. like an actual dinosaur modern day dinosaur I went to a Monano Zoo yesterday and like saw the giraffes and shit and I was like yo is this thing not just a dinosaur

you're a bit of a weird fucking animal aren't they they are very strange but they're also very pretty, and I've never, like... like, I haven't been to a zoo since I was, um, probably early high school as an excursion, but giraffes are very pretty, their spots and shit look very cool. Hmm. Yeah, I think that would probably about as long as i've about as long since i last went to a um zoo as well i think maybe when i was in like year 10 or something we went to one

but i don't know the zoo is one of those things where it's fun when you go with people but it's not something where i'm really that interested in animals where I'm like I'm going to go to the zoo myself nah it's not really a single person activity unless you are like super into animals I guess but it's fun

to go like to make a day of it every couple years so yeah that's fair. Is that cropped wrong? Has that been cropped wrong the entire time? I've had the video cropped wrong the entire time. It's fine.

There's just a black bar above your head. That's cool. There we go. Better now. Appreciate it. I was going to double check. Yes. To see if I had any other topics written down.

No, I mentioned chubby emu. I mentioned the shoulders. I haven't mentioned skateboarding i've been learning how to skateboard okay um i don't know where it came from but i think i just like recommended a bunch of um skateboarding videos at one point i was like i'm just gonna buy one for myself for my birthday which is like all the way back in March. And I was like slowly learning how to do it, but like I didn't really pick it up until a couple months later when Alfie

was like, oh, let's go for a skate together. And then ever since then I've been just like skating pretty much every day. That's cool. Just like because i've enjoyed it so much that that's the other thing i was gonna say it basically replaced my running because um it was something that i could do like even when i had like my fucked stomach and shoulders it doesn't it's not as like intensive as running is, but it's still like, it's still pretty good exercise.

I lost, I've lost like a couple of kilos just from skating every day, which I thought was, I didn't think was going to happen, but I know that seems kind of weird to me, but this is like over a month. Like it's not just, uh,

I lost a couple of kilos like a day afterwards, but, like, over a month. Like, it's not just I lost a cup of kilo. It's, like, a day afterwards. But I've been really enjoying that. I can't do any tricks or anything, but I can, you know, cruise around pretty much anywhere that I want. So I'm pretty happy with that. Well, if you can stay on top of the board, you're doing better than I am.

I've never learnt how to skate. I step on the board, it comes out from under my feet and I give up there. Yeah, it's a very strange feeling when you're first starting out. You're like, oh, I'm trying to fucking stand on something that has wheels. when you're first starting out you're like oh i'm trying to fucking stand on something that has wheels um it's been interesting because like cory has also been learning how to to skateboard more

recently and so like his wrist yes so yeah i've been watching uh him like, develop and, like, it's very surreal because, you know, he basically is at where, like, I was a couple months ago. And so just re-seeing that is very strange because I had kind of forgotten how hard it is to start with. But, you know, once you kind of develop it more, it's like, holy shit shit this is pretty second hand i think what it is is you needed something that was i guess in place of what you've been doing for the past couple of years you actually need some

sort of like skill you're developing because i can imagine like i know it's gonna happen when i leave uni it's sort of why i'm trying to think of things to actually do to expand my business. I know that when I don't have all this time being taken up, I will be bored if I don't find something to do. Exactly. I don't, sorry, I was going to say, I don't know how, like, people just sit on on centling and just watch tv all day and just don't do anything no that that's fucking depressing like humans need to be doing stuff with their day like even if it's not a job like you just need to be doing stuff because like the days i've had where i just haven't done anything i'm like holy fuck i just fucking feel like a leech feel bored sad uh but like you know if i have a day of like oh i'm gonna

work on this video and then i'm gonna go skating and then you know i'm gonna clean up the house a bit it's like wow i feel productive yeah even like skating isn't something that i'm thinking of getting into uh but hey if it's something you're enjoying go right ahead like i have a lot of respect for people who actually like put their effort into something that they want to try to improve yeah well something else i've been um doing as well along those lines is i've been practicing my touch typing because I've always wanted to be able to hack and mow 100 words per minute. So I've been learning how to do that properly and I think I can get like, I probably average around 60ish words per minute with like 97% accuracy.

So that's pretty good because basically you need to get your accuracy really high up before you can actually like increase your speed. Because, you know, there's no point in going fast if you're fucking touching the wrong keys and needing to backspace a bunch. Yeah. Yeah, my typing speed is not great, we'll say. You know what? I'm going to... Live typing test? Live typing test.

Typing test. Let's do something. I'm going to send you a link. All right. Are we both doing it? We are, yes. I'm going to have to figure out how to angle my fucking computer for this.

We'll do the one minute typing test with text, yeah. Okay, can you still hear me okay? Yeah, yeah, fine. Alright. Okay, there we go. I want to use my actual keyboard for this. That's fair.

This is quality content here. This is peak podcast right now. Okay. So we're doing one minute test text? Yeah, just the default settings. One minute test text. Alright. Let's take... Oh, what the fuck is this?

Oh, you've already started? Okay. Yeah, well, I just figured you might as well start. Oh, okay. Well. Oh my okay. Well... Ah... Oh my god! Oh god. Yeah, I'm sure this is great for the listeners here.

You guys, just watch the video version if you want to know what's going on. Oh, fucking hell. It also helps that, like, I'll see a word and I'm like, wait, this is not black. Fuck, my typing is terrible. I forgot how long a fucking minute is. Ugh, that was actually disgusting. I'm doing another one. Hit me with Not 40 words per minute

Thank you that's actually the saddest Fucking story I got 51 with 3 errors Oh sorry 49 with 3 errors so 46 With adjusted Yeah bro that was just my Warm up game

Yeah we'll do that again. Screw it. Oh, God. I love Uncle Henry, who was a farmer. And... I'm learning about baseball. And Aunt Em, who was the farmer's wife. Mm-hmm.

Yo, is Tech Over Tea just going become a typing podcast, surely? Uh, it very well could. And maybe I'll do typing tests on a stream and I'll message you, see if you think it's right. Yo, why do I actually fucking suck? Okay, 53 with two mistyped words, so adjusted 49, that's fine. I am... My typing is not very good as you can probably tell. I think I'm just very flustered because I just got 46 words per minute, I'm like,

that's yuck. I actually didn't know how to touch type for a long time. I think what taught me how to touch type was actually doing stuff in the terminal. Because I was actually typing a lot more than I otherwise would be. Yeah. Yes, I don't have anything to say. Yeah, obviously typing more is going to make you type more, so you're gonna get better at typing.

Yeah. Just, just practice. And plus, um, looking at the keyboard while you're typing, or what, uh, is, sorry, looking at the keyboard while you're typing doesn't make for a good video. So you sort of have to force yourself to make mistakes fix them and then go from there but i'm really bad one thing i am bad with is actually using the keyboard properly like i don't type properly that's why my words from it is so slow like you don't have have your keys on the home row. Yeah, I basically just head and peck. Yeah.

Yeah, I used to do that a lot, but I've been trying not to. Basically, I just use my pinky to hit modifier keys and thumb on space, and that's all the other keys, all the other fingers I use. It's, yeah.

I just don't really have a reason to improve my typing speed. Maybe I'll do it at some point? Yeah, I don't really have one either, I'm just like, it's something else for me to do that's like, doesn't really take a lot, because like, oh um, I'm not just doing like, the tests, there's like

a racing car thing yeah that's what I was looking for but I couldn't find it yeah the one I've been using is called Nitro Type I'm just like I'm improving my skill and I'm also like having a bit of fun because you know

you get to race people and if you win you're like yeah fucking take that and you're so shit at typing. So are you saying that it's good for getting your random numbers that just boost your dopamine? Yeah, exactly. Words per minute literally is just a random fucking number. Yeah, unless you're like a typist or you're a live translator,

it really doesn't matter how fast you type. It's just sort of like a an ep thing yes well actually i can uh type at 120 words per minute i've looked at places like nitro type and there are people that are like 200 and i don't know if that's actual, I actually have a fast day typing or cause that's fucking insane. Uh, I think people can get, I don't know about 200, but I know people can get like 150 plus.

I'm pretty sure. Um, I watched this good video, um, a little while ago. It was basically, um, this guy,

uh, he was a really fast, he um type a hundred words per minute as an average and uh he switched his keyboard layout from qwerty to one of the other ones and basically the whole video was like him kind of relearning how to type um and he found it super difficult but then after a while it kind of just clicked and he could type super fast there but when he tried to type with qwerty he was just like useless i'm gonna send you a video just keep talking um i'll show it in a second uh i think he switched but he found this person that could switch between the two layouts at will and be like super fast on both, which I thought was quite interesting. Yeah, no, if you want to type fast, apparently QWERTY is not how you do it.

I don't know what you should be doing. This is a dude who is going to be typing 200 words per minute. Like, what the fuck am I looking at? I don't... Wait. The L-U-D... Wait. Oh, no, that's just arrow keys presented with letters.

Yeah, Quotety was developed for like it was developed for typewriters so it wasn't it didn't have efficiency in mind typically here is it was developed for typewriters to stop them jamming so yeah it doesn't like obviously there's still um some thought put into the layout like you know z and x and q are like off in the corners because they're like least used letters but uh yeah other layouts i think take into consideration the most common letters. I'm not sure what this guy is running, but A, O, E, U, I are all on the home row. Yeah, well, because they're all the vowels. But there's not just one alternative keyboard layout, There's like, like probably there's a little bit of the, there's quite a few. The most well known is Dvorak, but there's plenty of others. Yeah.

I love this picture of the lizard spider manning. You know, we're going to find some keyboard layouts. Six non-QWERTY keyboard layouts. So we have AZERTY, which is basically QWERTY but there's an A in the Q spot. Why? I guess it's for... it's a European layout of some sort. Yeah, for... oh sorry, it's a French... for French-speaking countries. I guess there's a reason why in French you want it like that. I don't know.

Uh-huh, uh-huh. You've got Querts, which is QWERTY, but there's a Z in the Y... Yeah, the Y... There's a Z in the Y spot, and this is used by Germany, Austria, and the Czech Republic. Also probably a reason there. You've got Dvorak, which is a very popular one. Yeah, he was running Dvorak in that video. Colmac, which is another one that people like. Moultron, which... the fuck is this? The fuck am I looking at? Yeah, I'm guessing it's something that's designed to be split off into multiple keyboards. That's interesting. Okay, well, yeah, this- we're not even at English at this point. This is- this is a, um, a Cyrillic keyboard.

I don't like how the arrows on that one are like stacked on top of each other. Yeah. Oh, that's gross. Well, you've still got the arrows and the number keys, so you can use those as well. Wait, what the fuck? This keyboard has a diagonal in its... It has diagonals in its arrow keys. What? Look at the

7 and 1 in Moltres. What the hell? Maybe that's like it kind of skips towards the start or the end of a paragraph. I don't know. I've never seen it before could be interesting uh that looks pretty strange yeah anyway there are alternate layouts um

there's a couple that have gotten really popular on youtube with really really viral videos but generally most people go to Dvorak if they want to do faster typing. Just because there's lots of, there's lots of material on how to do Dvorak properly. I'd like, I don't know if I'd really want to put the time into doing that because like, it would just be on your computer and whenever you want to use someone else's to like flex you can't really do it without having

to be like oh just wait a second i just got to install this uh this custom keyboard layout yeah if i'm going to be doing a custom keyboard layout i'm going to be doing it for another language i'm not going to do it for English. Yeah. Like, I want to start learning Japanese at some point. And I could get myself a Japanese keyboard, but the cheaper option is get a basically just keyboard software that remaps

everything. Have I flexed to I Can Solve a Rubik's Cube? Not on the podcast. You flexed it in Can Solve a Rubik's Cube? Not on the podcast. You flexed it in person before. I mean, I have flexed it in person, but that's just because I was like learning it every day. Show people your world record speeds. World record speed is not very good.

Much better than I can do. Yeah, for context, a lot of the guys in my cohort got really into Rubik's Cubes and all started learning it. I have no idea how this works, but yeah, what the fuck was that? I don't know what you just did. So they all bought speed cubes and that just happened.

Yeah, well, I think Corey already had a speed cube and then I learned how to do it and was bringing it to uni as like something to do on the train ride and then I was like oh this is actually pretty fun and then bought a proper one I don't know if anyone else is doing it

I know Aiden had speed cubed before but what the fuck what I'm looking at world records. Yeah, the world records are insane. The world record right now

seems to be 3.47 seconds. Yeah. Actually, I'll send you a timestamp. I'm pretty sure that one's set by some random Asian kid Yeah

Yusheng Du The guy that has like Most of the other world records Is an Australian dude Okay we're gonna watch this Countdown 3 2

1 Good for audio listeners again Countdown... Three... Two... One... Good for audio listeners again. Oh, it's covered. My boy Max Park. Alright, it's just a kid doing the judging. It's just... the entire- Can you not put end cards in this video? The entire

thing is covered. This is just stupid, let's watch a better one, we'll go to this one. Um. Nicholas Sanchez, to see his. Yeah, I like how that guy that has the world record, like, it's just some fucking security camera footage. but the guy in that video that has the second record felix yeah he's he's an australian dude and he has like a bunch of previous world records which i was kind of cool i'm not very like patriotic at all but i still think it's kind of cool when like an australian person has like records and stuff yeah we need records and things that we didn't invent ourselves. Or, mate, we've got the world's longest

world's longest footy kick. It's like, how many competitors outside of Australia were there? Or none? World's longest mullet? That's not it. or none world's longest mullet that's not

bro I got the world's thickest fucking VA engine it's like okay so I know Guinness World Records doesn't like want to come to my house and verify it but that's just cause you can't measure sickness bro

it's just fully sick. You don't fucking understand. Yeah. I think it is cool. It's cool that there's awesome things like that being done in Australia. Yeah, I think it's very snazzy. Even though it's something like solving a Rubik's Cube, which seems like such a simple

task, it's crazy how much it can be optimised. Yeah, well, um, you have the beginner's way to do it, which is how slow. And then the way that I know, which is like, uh, breaks it down into three steps. And then, uh, the,

the people that have the world records, they combine the last two into three steps, which is like, you need to know. So no, wait, they, yeah, sorry. They do combine the last two into three steps. And it's just like, you need to know so many... No, wait. Yeah, yeah, sorry. They do combine the last two into three steps,

and it's just like tens of thousands of algorithms that you need to remember. It's ridiculous. I pick up a Rubik's Cube, and I just start shuffling it randomly. I don't know what to do with it. I think that's what most people do. What is this story?

What is this magical device? I think I've run- oh no, I still have some water left. I know I said I was gonna make that tea with the fuckin' happy herbs, flowers, but I decided- I don't have like a tea strain or anything i was like i don't really feel like you know picking random parts of flour out of my mouth you say a colander bro i think my colander is like like the radius at the bottom is too big for, like, even this cup, which is bigger than most of the mugs I have. Wait, speaking of colanders, have you seen this video? It's a bit of an old video now. But it came out in between this recording and the previous one.

Uncle Roger. I think I've seen this video recommended. Actually no, sorry, wrong video. It was the BBC video that I wanted to show. I have seen this one recommended to me though. Yeah, this one. She makes really wet rice and then strains it with a cloth. No, what the hell, no! I'm not gonna play it because I probably shouldn't do that but I can show a clip. I shouldn't go with picture. Here we go. Where is it? Why is this?

There we go. Yeah. Basically, she makes incredibly wet rice, puts it in the colander. Yeah, and this was on BBC Food. Just buy yourself a fucking rice cooker. I really should get a rice cooker, but I have a method to do it in a, like a saucepan and it works every time.

So. I mean, okay. I guess if it works every time, but like rice cooker is just like so much easier. That's fair. Let's find out how much a rice cooker is. I'm going to do that now.

Yeah, you're going to have to afterpay it, bro. Yeah. No, I think I can... I think I have rice cooker money. Let's see. Let's go to Kmart. Seven cup rice cooker. I think, yeah.

I think that's enough rice for me. $13. You literally don't need any more than 3. But, like... I don't know how you can eat fucking 3. I have, like, 1 and a half now. No, no, no. I'm saying, like, if you have

people over and you, like, want to cook rice, 3 is more than enough for, like, 5 people. Here's not want to cook rice three is more than enough for like five people here's not shit rice cookers 35 to 160 dollars this is like that fancy japanese shit you see where they've got like here you go i'll send you a picture um got all like fancy buttons that do things. I might wanna do the jump. Sorry you cut out there, what was that? Bro, mine just has one button. What do these buttons do? Can I see it? Is it gonna show me?

You can make the rice porridge. Brown rice, white rice, quick cook slash steam. Interesting. That's cool. When I have space to put a rice cooker in my kitchen permanently, there will be a rice cooker in my kitchen permanently. I mean, I don't keep mine out. It's like in the cupboard.

I don't have space for it to store it anyway. We have a lot of... Here's another thing about share houses a lot of people move out and leave their crap here just lynch it so we have like four saucepans all of the same size

interesting I am I recently have gone through like my whole house and purged so much shit that i don't need it's always a good thing to do yeah and like just had a bunch of this like just kitchen appliances like had like this soft serve maker but it's like it was more efficient to just like um use a spoon to mush up the ice cream than it was to use this machine um yeah so i throw throw one out a bunch of stuff we've always got well

don't most of it was like Just donated to like op shops and stuff Well yeah If you can donate I generally donate stuff Yeah I think for like We had like one or two big rubbish bags And then

For each of those There was probably like Three donate bags Because yeah There's no point in throwing away stuff that you don't use that still works yeah well yeah i got rid of um like half my clothes the other month and i just put them all into a big garbage bag sent them up with my mom to like an op shop up in the riverland just because when it's in the river, they tend to get far less stuff out there. Yeah. Especially stuff from people who aren't over, like, 900 years old.

Tell me I want this grandpa shirt. Like, you'll see, like, there are so many, like, dresses from the 50s in op shops up there. I mean, if you ever want to film something set in the 50s I guess so that's one way to do it but yeah it's just donate your stuff there's no point trashing it like don't trash it yeah when you

start doing your Q&A streams the beard trolls are going to come back I've had a couple of them recently but most have got chucked into the spam let's find some of the comments that reminds me of one of the topics I wanted to talk about

we can go over some of the comments from the angry people last time yes I like this We can go over some of the comments from the angry people last time. Uh, yes. I like this. Held for review. Let's see. Uh, no, these are people just posting links. No, don't.

YouTube, stop fucking putting me in spam. These are people just posting legitimate comments. What are you doing? Are the arseholes a rubble? Have a look at this mong... What? Have a... Are the arseholes a rubble eat? Have a look at this mong- what? That's people just posting links to fishing sites. Beard.

If I wasn't lazy, I'd want to go through the Electron podcast and just clip every time he says, this coffee is making it hard to breathe. Yes, if you do that, let me know. Yes, if I do that, I'll send it to you. Yeah, I'll send it to him as well. Idiot, research a bit before clicking on the record button. Also, why is your beard like that? You look like a homeless person.

This one I did appreciate, though. For one million subscribers, you should shave your fucking beard. Okay. If I get a million subs, I'll say it right now, I'll shave my beard. Here it is, folks. Do you reckon you'll ever crack a million? i'm a linux channel i was gonna say i don't i think your linux is a bit too niche to get a million subs unless my gate like when i start doing gaming stuff that might take off that could hit a million oh no um but no not on the

not on the other linux stuff. Not anytime soon. I think the biggest Linux channel right now, actually Linux created, there are big Linux channels, but they're doing other things besides Linux, or they're one of the Linux tutorial channels. The ones that basically upload the stuff you'd see on somewhere like lynda.com.

Some of those have tons of subscribers, but I think the biggest creator? That would be Chris Titus Tech. How many subs does Chris have? But he also does Windows stuff as well. 225,000. Biggest influencer. Influencer. well 225,000 hmm biggest influencer coincidence influencer influenza coincidence I think not coronavirus influenza sent us inside to watch the influencers open your fucking eyeballs. Politics. Poly means many. Tics

mean bloodsuckers. Politics is full of bloodsuckers. Oh, fucking hell. So, okay. But while I'm looking for this, how was the Electron podcast? I liked it.

I zoned out as soon as you guys started talking about library in the second half, but I loved all the conspiracy talk. Yeah, that's not what I expected. I knew he was real deep in conspiracies, but that was not the direction I was expecting that podcast to go. Not at all. Not at, like, even when he, especially when he started going down, like, the fucking David Icke route, the 5G nonsense.

Like, can we not? I like my YouTube channel existing. Yeah, I loved it, though. it's easily one of my favourite ones. Let's see, video view, where's my browser? Properties. I'm looking at the thumbnails for the one you did with Cory and Kenly, and it looks like you just use the same thing of Kenly over, like, on all three, but it's just him having the same expression.

I looked for a good expression of Kenly and I couldn't find it! Um, okay. So. First one we have is from Mr. Snail Anime Art. I don't care, you clowns. I already pre-ordered the system and it's going to be an awesome console. Listen, dude, I backed it day one. Backer number 1,272.

Who comments that? Okay. So these are the comments that ended up getting put into the... Held for review, we'll say. On the Atari rant? Yeah. So the reply to that comment that I just said was from Reviewed Popcorn. You got scammed... Oh Popcorn. You idiot, you got scammed into buying an Ooyah 2.0.

Which is beautiful, I like that. This is my favourite. Okay. I pre-ordered it too and I cannot sit down after the arse-raving Atari has given me. Fuck you Atari and anybody who supports the extortion they have committed and fuck Indiegogo for allowing this. The entire Indiegogo campaign

was a farce, sounded like a system that was already almost complete. They hadn't even started planning for it. Sadly, there were extra comments here but um yeah basically they got deleted oh we have one more from mr ryan brown some grade a fuck boy shit mostly the other comments um youtube wasn't very happy with and deleted them they got much worse from here.

This dude, the almost literally way more powerful than a Raspberry Pi and runs more software. The Pi comparison is getting really old. Again, VCS is far more powerful and flexible than a Pi. Can Raspberry Pi run Windows? No. VCS is far more powerful and flexible than a Pi. Can Raspberry Pi run Windows? No. VCS can. I'm not saying VCS is the best thing ever,

but it's way more useful to me than a Pi. I respond with it can run Windows. Even if that's technically possible, that still feels like grasping at the straws because there is no way it could perform nearly as well or have as good compatibility as the x86-based Atari. Bro. What a fucking weapon.

Oh, yeah, this part's going to be clipped, by the way, so if anyone wants to leave some more hate comments, give us some fuel for next time. Feel free to do so. I told you, I have to shit on something that everyone likes. We were talking about this before we started the podcast, but I suggested that we shit on Keanu Reeves to try and get some people mad,

but we couldn't think of anything that's actually, like, 100% bad other than, like, Reddit morons just blindly saying, I love you. What I'll say is this picture right here basically sums up how I feel about any of the haters. Anyone listening, you for watching don't forget to subscribe if you loved it if you hated it

fuck you and never come back I mean like even so I'd still like want the dumb fucking people... I love them, they're great. Because it's funny, because they still just give you views and boost your chance to get thrown into Recommended, so... Yep. Dislikes boost the algorithm just as much as likes do.

YouTube doesn't treat them differently. That's why you'll see, like, videos that have a 20% like to dislike ratio with millions of views. Because videos that are super controversial, YouTube loves. Mm-hmm. Unless they get into conspiracy territory and then they're like, we must stop this because we don't like money. Because, yeah, we don't want people to not be able to think

for themselves. I haven't heard any good conspiracies recently. It's all just the same. Can we get something new? It's all just the same. I'm like, can we get something new? It's like, oh, Corona this, Corona that. Like, I don't care. I genuinely don't care anymore.

Yeah, that's like, um, like, especially for us living in SA, it's like, bro, I literally do not give a fuck about Corona virus anymore. Until it comes like, bro, I literally do not give a fuck about coronavirus anymore. Until it comes back, I do not care. Literally no- okay. I'm sure you've been

to, like, really- you've been to, like, supermarkets recently, yeah, that have, like, cafes and stuff in them. Yeah. And you'll have, like, COVID marshals walking around who are supposed to, like, enforce social distancing. They're not enforcing social distancing. No one's doing that. No one cares in this state

at this point because we don't have any cases. The only cases we've had are the ones we import from other states and then we just lock them in a hotel for a couple of weeks. Lock them in a prison? Yeah. Aren't some good

conspiracies? I love birds being drones that recharge on power lines I love that I I knew about the birds of drones but I didn't I didn't know about the recharging on power lines yeah as there's like a bunch of videos because uh like birds naturally just go on power lines and there's some videos where it's just like a bunch of videos because like birds naturally just go on power lines. And there's some videos where it's just like a whole line of them across like from one pole to the other. And it's like, bro, they're recharging themselves. Oh, I wish I was like in just for one day.

I want to know what it's like to be in the head of someone who thinks that everything is a conspiracy it it would be interesting but also i'm pretty sure it was just like you'd feel very overwhelmed because it would basically mean that everyone's out to get you i feel like it's it'd be like if you just got really fucking high. And you're just having the massive panic attacks. Yeah.

Would be similar to that, I guess. Yeah. It would be interesting, but it would be real terrifying for sure. Like, honestly. There's some things that are just not conspiracy. Some things are just as they are. Bro, fucking the trees.

The trees, yes. Are grooming us because they give us oxygen. So they're gaining our trust. But just be ready for when the trees revolt and they become sentient and their roots

come out of the ground like and they start walking around and they just like fucking bash themselves on all the different people. Like the weeping willow from Harry Potter, that one. Yeah, exactly. And no one's gonna believe it,

because they're only gonna do a couple every year until every tree in the world can revolt. It's actually the most retarded thing I've ever said. Yeah, it probably couldn't be too far off. But actually, that's the topic. Speaking of Harry Potter, I really fucking hate how much of a meme it's become to like that series.

Because it's actually a good series. But because there's so many people who are like, oh my god, Harry Potter is everything in my life. Like, oh, how say you in? Like, I don't fucking care. Because of people like that, it's sort of just, like, funny to like Harry Potter at this point. But no, it's actually a good series,

and I would highly recommend watching it all the way through if you haven't done so. But keep yourself grounded in reality. There's actually really good timing, because I watched them all, like, this month. Yeah, they're really good. It's a really good world to get sucked into while you're watching it,

but, yeah, don't go off the rail too far because it's... Like, you'll see boring white girls who are like, I'm going to wear my Ravenclaw fucking scarf. I'm going to wear my Hufflepuff boots or whatever. It's like, stop. Also, if your house

is Hufflepuffuff you need a better house have you watched um fantastic beasts i haven't uh the first one is like okay um it's like it doesn't really capture the same magic as the other movies but like it's you know it's enjoyable to watch but the second one is like pretty god which does not have me hopeful because apparently there's meant to be like three more of them oh god yeah when a series goes on for that long there's just it's bound to have some bad eggs actually of the original series what was your favorite number five that was order of the phoenix i remember people i know i remember when

i was younger uh that was my least favorite one but after re-watching it i'm like this is fucking hell good yeah order of the phoenix is amazing i would say that's probably my favorite as well i think my least was probably goblet of fire yeah same here and i was watching a video about it and um a lot of the reason for that is because the director they got for number four hadn't read any of the books, was complaining the whole time throughout production about him needing to read the fourth one. So he can actually like have an idea what the fucking story's about. stories about and then he was trying to like compete with the previous directors be like yeah my movie's gonna be the best one because i got fucking so-and-so actor and i don't know if this is the director's fault but um a lot of the romance in number four is just like painful very very much so

and also everyone didn't get a haircut that year for some reason is that the case? they look a little fucking weird yeah they all have like I think it was like a trend at the time maybe but everyone had like super long hair oh yeah they did didn't

they the fuck all right why is yeah harry needs a bit of a bit of a haircut ron's looking like he stepped out of the fucking 90s oh yeah another problem um with that movie is like, Dumbledore just yells at everyone the whole time. There's like, I don't know if you've seen that famous video where it's like, Harry, did you put your name in the Goblet of Fire? Dumbledore asks calmly and it's like, Harry, did you put your name in the Goblet of Fire? Yes, I have seen that one. I read, did you put your name in the cup of the fire? Yes, I have seen that one. But, like, that's not the only time where he's fucking, like, yelling at people.

Like, pretty much the whole movie, all of his dialogue is just yelled. Like, oh, God, no, that's an amazing picture right there. Okay, I'm going to show you this one. This really shows off how bad the hair was in this movie. Ugh. Just not good. Also, that whole bowl dance scene was just garbage. Yeah, it's just, wasn't Hermione with some, like,

Hermione was, like, the big dude who was bowled, or something. Yeah, the big Chad. Chad, I think his name was Victor, like, Chad Victor versus the virgin Ron. But it's just, like, Harry is the, uh, what, the star of the quidditch team

ed harry potter and somehow manages to not be able to find a date he just like finds the last people he can find yeah i think the reasoning behind that is because like he put he got his name in the goblet when he wasn't meant to, so everyone was like, oh, look at him. Yeah, probably, yeah, I guess more of, Harry's the chosen one. But, I still don't think it would

have been as hard to get a date for him. Yeah. Yeah. get a date for him. Yeah. Well, you know, I'm feeling a bit hungry, so I'm happy to wrap it up if you are. Yeah, we can do that if you want. I'm happy to end whenever.

Yeah, cool. Where can people find you? That one. Are you actually still making videos? I haven't actually checked your channel in a while. I uploaded a video six days ago. Okay. But, the video before that was like a month and a half ago.

What was it? Super... Actually, it's Cozhan, isn't it? Yeah. So, my it's Kozhan, isn't it? Yeah. Sorry. My channel is Kozhan, but everywhere else is Super Kozman. Oh, right.

Yeah, I haven't actually seen that one yet. Fellas, I'm not gay genius interview. Yeah, I don't know if you've watched the genius interview, but I think I did a pretty good job emulating it. I've seen a couple of them.

I'm pretty happy with how that video turned out. Oh, and you're getting closer to 100 subs. Slowly but surely. Also I think Library changed their thing because I checked my Odyssey channel and it had synced over all of my videos even though I wasn't at 100, so that was cool. Oh, that's cool. Yeah, they might have changed that, I'm not sure. Um, do you... this is a question for you. Yes.

Um, how do I log into Odyssey? Is it just the library thing? It's just a front end for library. Okay. Because, yeah, I just wanted to log in and check it out. Yeah, it's actually a big improvement. We have notifications now, which is something that should have been there from the start.

Yeah, it's just a better platform all around. The comment trees work properly. So if you comment to something, you reply to it, and you reply to the reply, it's under that reply, rather than being a reply to the top comment. So, actually, well, that's better than YouTube's one, then. Yeah. That's nice.

Yeah, so... You get what I'm trying to say, right? Like, you have a... Yeah. Yeah, you reply to the top comment, you have a reply under that, it'd be, like, indented in, and the one under that would be indented further.

Yeah. Yeah. No, that's actually... Yeah, that is better than YouTube. Yes. Yeah. So, that's where you can find me. Cause I'm SuperCosman. Cool.

You know what? We already talked about channels earlier, but if... Is there is, yes. Is there another channel that you've been watching lately? Yes, I do have another one. His name is Dream. He does a fucking minecraft channel yeah minecraft channel but like knew the name sounded familiar not not cringe minecraft channel but i know it's not it's not like he needs a shout out or anything i'm pretty sure he has like

11 million subs but uh i've been watching some of his stuff. It's pretty good. Like trying to be Minecraft with three people hunting you. He does some, some good plays like he'll be in the never with these three people hunting him and he'll jump in the lava. So they think that he died, but he had just drunk a fire resistance potion. So they're like, where the fuck did he go but yeah check out

Dream if you like Minecraft stuff okay that reminds me this is a different channel than I was gonna say because you mentioned Dream this is a channel called Mick Yum he did a video called If Dream Was Bad at Minecraft.

And basically he's just, uh, he just does really shit videos. Um, Minecraft moments that give me life and thumbnail is an upside down T. Uh, Minecraft trolling videos

be like, and it's just fucking dumb, or Minecraft let's plays be like. I think I've had these videos recommended to me. Fake Herobrine videos be like, or Minecraft building tutorials, and he's just

like screaming, like he'll start with like a basically a dirt hut, and then just start screaming at the at the mic it's like okay guys off camera we built all of this we've built the entire planet we've built a castle we built the entire universe it's uh mining off off screen yeah basically just making fun of the entire minecraft genre while just making Minecraft videos. It's a fun channel, I recommend it, I really do. I will definitely watch some of the students' vids. What was the other one I was gonna mention?

Oh, right, someone that I wanna see hit a million subscribers soon. You're not gonna watch her channel. Wait, has Um Uh, Guda Anyone who likes VTubers, go watch Guda Um Has she, wait, has she overtaken

Fubuki? I need to check this Oh, she's 2k Subscribers away from overtaking Fubuki, okay Uh, Guda Needs from overtaking Fubuki. Okay. Gura needs to get above Fubuki's subscriber count, and then she can be the first member of Hololive to hit a million subscribers, because there's no way Fubuki's catching back up.
