i've noticed me like not saying what i want to say because i'm like oh yeah we're we're doing the 22 00:02:29,860 --> 00:02:38,240 show the show is for kids right so i need to like not no more not specifically um we totally we don't 23 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:45,240 want to be like over the top or anything um but yeah this is a uh we're gonna we're gonna try and 24 00:02:45,240 --> 00:02:49,280 start getting more like on a weekly release schedule but we've had a lot with Leila's band 25 00:02:49,280 --> 00:02:54,320 and a lot going on but we're getting back into it and it's becoming more of a routine now that i have 26 00:02:54,320 --> 00:02:59,860 these these apps that help me make the pro the show afterwards i'm gonna talk about that a little bit 27 00:02:59,860 --> 00:03:03,800 what you know how easy it's gonna be when we don't have the friday or when we have the friday 28 00:03:03,800 --> 00:03:06,980 night football games but we don't have a show that's in around friday right 29 00:03:06,980 --> 00:03:16,460 gonna be yeah yeah um but yeah so our show this week is going to be about how you know as you can 30 00:03:16,460 --> 00:03:21,940 probably tell from the title the internet was a mistake i don't think we should title it that 31 00:03:21,940 --> 00:03:28,140 no no i think we should just title it the internet the internet yeah because i saw it and i was like 32 00:03:28,140 --> 00:03:33,100 that's right this is my my thesis is that the internet was a mistake and of course that we're 33 00:03:33,100 --> 00:03:38,840 but we're gonna discuss the nuance of that i don't believe it is no it's not but it's a fun 34 00:03:38,840 --> 00:03:43,340 thing to say because you see some stuff and you're like oh wow this whole this whole experiment was 35 00:03:43,340 --> 00:03:51,780 oh my gosh why don't you put a space at the end of things what oh okay wow okay i just noticed that 36 00:03:51,780 --> 00:03:57,700 in the outline yeah where you wrote out what we were doing uh-huh you put intro enter you didn't put 37 00:03:57,700 --> 00:04:06,440 intro space enter yeah i never put spaces at the end of lines bad formatting if you're in in certain 38 00:04:06,440 --> 00:04:13,380 programming languages if you have a space there it wrecks everything all right if you have a space or a 39 00:04:13,380 --> 00:04:19,080 comma in the wrong spot it can wreck everything but uh yeah we're a value for value podcast and we like 40 00:04:19,080 --> 00:04:26,280 we like to thank the people who support us right off the bat um i am going to be getting in

you yeah so dad what how has the internet affected your life how has the internet affected my life 99 00:10:41,700 --> 00:10:52,860 with an a wow um it hasn't no it oh really i got the internet my first brush with the internet was in 100 00:10:52,860 --> 00:10:58,440 1996 i remember specifically it was the summer of 96 because it was during the summer olympics 101 00:10:58,440 --> 00:11:04,700 uh aol which is a company that used to be around i think they still have some stuff going but 102 00:11:04,700 --> 00:11:12,180 america online we had finally gotten the internet through them you had to pay by the minute 103 00:11:12,180 --> 00:11:21,520 every minute that you were on the internet you had to pay it was extremely slow and it took up your 104 00:11:21,520 --> 00:11:25,600 entire phone line so you couldn't talk on the phone and be on the internet at the same time 105 00:11:25,600 --> 00:11:33,380 so we got the internet and i immediately went to the chat rooms to talk to the people in the olympic 106 00:11:33,380 --> 00:11:39,100 chat rooms which was really neat that was that's cool it was so cool and chat rooms were the thing 107 00:11:39,100 --> 00:11:47,620 back then and we uh you know i learned went from there and i learned how to write web pages by i i found 108 00:11:47,620 --> 00:11:54,520 the view page source button and started looking at the page source for other websites and i learned how 109 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:59,920 how the little html tags worked and i started messing with all that and then i don't know it just turned 110 00:11:59,920 --> 00:12:09,260 into go going from there i guess you would say i've pretty much had a website or two up ever since 96 97 111 00:12:09,260 --> 00:12:15,480 and uh the internet's been a i mean a huge part of my life ever since as most people but and you would 112 00:12:15,480 --> 00:12:21,840 have never known never known what that internet has been a big part of your life right as we distribute 113 00:12:21,840 --> 00:12:25,420 this on the internet you'd have never known and receive internet money 114 00:12:25,420 --> 00:12:34,040 so what about what about oh okay so affecting my life now obviously we distribute the show on the 115 00:12:34,040 --> 00:12:40,840 internet i play games with like my brother we play games together on the internet sometimes um 116 00:12:40,840 --> 00:12:48,760 all of our entertainment comes from the internet now a lot of it's hosted at home talk about that later 117 00:12:48,760 --> 00:12:57,220 um but yeah so i mean it brings me all of my information all of my entertainment uh all of 118 00:12:57,220 --> 00:13:08,600 my communication what what all of your communication 98 99 of it yeah i wouldn't go that far what what do 119 00:13:08,600 --> 00:13:13,060 you think what communication other than in person do you talk to people online 99 of the day 120 00:13:13,060 --> 00:13:18,600 or 90 well no i'm not talking about you're communicating except for in-person conversations 121 00:13:18,600 --> 00:13:25,920 so where's the one percent going text messages that aren't through the rcs system that are on sms 122 00:13:25,920 --> 00:13:33,620 that's not the internet uh what sms is not the internet what is it it's a it's a whole protocol but 123 00:13:33,620 --> 00:13:38,860 that's probably internet now because the sms is probably relayed through the internet my phone's 124 00:13:38,860 --> 00:13:45,360 probably 50 50 people that use sms and people that use rcs right but anyway the vast vast majority 125 00:13:45,360 --> 00:13:52,220 of my communications are through the internet yeah so yeah so there you go um the internet has affected 126 00:13:52,220 --> 00:14:03,100 my life by one growing up in the vicinity of it and just learning to do stuff on it at a very young age 127 00:14:03,100 --> 00:14:14,260 you know but also my like how do i explain it i don't know i didn't know where you were going with 128 00:14:14,260 --> 00:14:22,840 that i was going to ask you social media but i don't have social media you you do it's just not 129 00:14:22,840 --> 00:14:29,940 what people typically think of when they think of social media you get on you get on that one or two 130 00:14:29,940 --> 00:14:36,060 of your games and they have voice chat and you chat with people and or use the chat rooms that's 131 00:14:36,060 --> 00:14:41,940 social media it just has a wrapper of a video game around it and i use a couple like youtube and 132 00:14:41,940 --> 00:14:49,720 pinterest right right social media you're not like using those as to post things or you you're just 133 00:14:49,720 --> 00:14:54,860 consuming entertainment and information essentially but i mean you're not the average bear you're not the 134 00:14:54,860 --> 00:15:00,660 average 15 year old you know yeah but it has it's affected my mind definitely in pop culture 135 00:15:00,660 --> 00:15:06,700 references i have a friend that we literally almost all the time only talk in pop culture references and 136 00:15:06,700 --> 00:15:13,220 we understand the sentences between each other it's really funny well what's crazy now about the internet 137 00:15:13,220 --> 00:15:17,940 versus like say when i was a little younger than you because well i got the internet when i was your age 138 00:15:17,940 --> 00:15:25,080 so like imagine you not even knowing about anything having to do with online world until your age 139 00:15:25,080 --> 00:15:30,880 if you had never been around before so like pop culture used to be different for me because 140 00:15:30,880 --> 00:15:38,700 there was like three or four channels that everybody got over the air on tv right so chances are most people 141 00:15:38,700 --> 00:15:46,780 were watching the same tv shows almost everybody who watched tv watched the same shows so that was your 142 00:15:46,780 --> 00:15:53,380 pop culture uh when movies came out like you would see the trailers for the movies you wouldn't really 143 00:15:53,380 --> 00:15:58,880 see them on tv that much you go to the movie theater and like you just hear about word of mouth 144 00:15:58,880 --> 00:16:04,240 yeah this movie was coming out or you just call the movie theater and say hey what's this movie about 145 00:16:04,240 --> 00:16:10,620 you know um we didn't see a whole lot of movie trailers um but then when a big movie came out like 146 00:16:10,620 --> 00:16:15,700 that's what everybody talked about but now everything is so splintered and fractured on the internet 147 00:16:15,700 --> 00:16:21,820 i mean you've got all of your streaming services putting out movies you've got actual movies that 148 00:16:21,820 --> 00:16:25,480 come out in the theater other ones are actual movies too you don't mean like movies that come out 149 00:16:25,480 --> 00:16:31,820 those real movies theatrical releases you've got tv shows you've got tv shows on streaming 150 00:16:31,820 --> 00:16:38,900 that uh you've got youtube which is just literally anybody can start a channel you've got podcasts for 151 00:16:38,900 --> 00:16:45,680 the audio listeners and video podcasts i guess um so you've got all of these different things it's 152 00:16:45,680 --> 00:16:52,740 it's interesting because there's there's the the main pop culture which is normally pushed by disney 153 00:16:52,740 --> 00:17:01,660 because they pretty much own it now um and then there's sub pop culture and those kind of kind of 154 00:17:01,660 --> 00:17:06,520 intersect like you're going to have a lot of mix between rpg gamers and anime fans 155 00:17:06,520 --> 00:17:15,560 uh you're going to have a lot of mix between you know cosplayers and like makers you know people 156 00:17:15,560 --> 00:17:20,000 that make 3d printing stuff and and you've got all these subcultures and they they intermingle and 157 00:17:20,000 --> 00:17:28,020 intermix but you can have two people going to the same school in the same small town who like consume 158 00:17:28,020 --> 00:17:34,720 none of the same media but both of them are actually consuming popular media you know what i mean 159 00:17:34,720 --> 00:17:45,760 yeah there there was a lot more cohesion in the what people liked back in my day and i wonder how much 160 00:17:45,760 --> 00:17:53,160 more control the large companies and you know even like the government if they were involved in any of 161 00:17:53,160 --> 00:17:59,320 that how much more control they had over people back then by pushing certain messages even stuff like 162 00:17:59,320 --> 00:18:04,600 the um but even now that's kind of getting more pop more and more popular like with them with the 163 00:18:04,600 --> 00:18:09,080 newest mark rover mark rober video i keep calling him mark rover because he worked on the mars rover 164 00:18:09,080 --> 00:18:16,320 i'm start calling him mars rover he posted a video his last video that he posted like two or three days 165 00:18:16,320 --> 00:18:22,200 ago now right he i didn't watch the video you did and you explained it to me so i'm kind of regurgitating 166 00:18:22,200 --> 00:18:26,280 what you're saying but so you want me to run through what happened yeah yeah yeah okay so basically 167 00:18:26,280 --> 00:18:31,860 he made a video about he had a tesla and then he had this car with a lidar instead of the cameras 168 00:18:31,860 --> 00:18:37,740 because teslas use cameras to determine what's around them and lidar is so cool yeah it really is 169 00:18:37,740 --> 00:18:45,120 i played a simulation of it and then there was um a vehicle that had lidar and he was like showing 170 00:18:45,120 --> 00:18:50,340 the difference between how lidar works and how the cameras work and which one was better at like 171 00:18:50,340 --> 00:18:55,240 stopping if there was a child in the road so he had like this little dummy kid you know like a mannequin 172 00:18:55,240 --> 00:19:02,180 not just a kid who was dumb um he had a mannequin in the street and he'd like run the the auto 173 00:19:02,180 --> 00:19:08,740 driving cars up to it and they would stop but like depending on if it was raining or you know he had 174 00:19:08,740 --> 00:19:14,760 a bunch of different variables in there and basically he was like sponsored by big lidar yeah 175 00:19:14,760 --> 00:19:20,780 yeah a lidar company he's uh was paying him so everyone kind of lost trust i believe he had stock in 176 00:19:20,780 --> 00:19:27,620 the company and there was a whole the whole thing i don't know the exact details but basically it just 177 00:19:27,620 --> 00:19:32,880 he didn't disclose and he's been caught in this before where he didn't disclose that he was being 178 00:19:32,880 --> 00:19:40,780 paid uh by these companies to talk about their products um and i'm not like i said i'm not 100% 179 00:19:40,780 --> 00:19:46,200 on all this so all this is you know let's say allegedly i don't know yeah i don't know that 180 00:19:46,200 --> 00:19:52,160 the exact details of his deal with the lidar people but apparently a lot of people were very upset with 181 00:19:52,160 --> 00:19:58,740 them and that's one of the things that like our show i feel like we've kind of built a little bit 182 00:19:58,740 --> 00:20:05,540 of a rapport and some trust with our listeners however if we went bad and decided to shill for 183 00:20:05,540 --> 00:20:15,660 somebody and sell their stuff but we did it in a smart way it would it would hurt worse than if we 184 00:20:15,660 --> 00:20:20,460 just did straight out didn't add yeah you know because if i know someone's sponsored by something 185 00:20:20,460 --> 00:20:24,040 i'm like oh okay so they'll have a bias towards this or this they're getting paid to do this 186 00:20:24,040 --> 00:20:31,080 because if like someone is sponsored by mio like the the water drops i know they're not gonna 187 00:20:31,080 --> 00:20:35,780 live like the next video be drinking like crystal light and like being like yo i got some crystal 188 00:20:35,780 --> 00:20:40,120 light here you know right and then there's people like uh bandrew bandrew scott he has the 189 00:20:40,120 --> 00:20:47,120 uh show podcastage on youtube where he reviews microphones and whatnot and he's been on our 190 00:20:47,120 --> 00:20:55,420 previous show yeah he he was on uh fun fact friday uh he is extremely um he's very careful 191 00:20:55,420 --> 00:21:04,100 about never he'll take free stuff from companies but like he always says you know i received this 192 00:21:04,100 --> 00:21:10,180 for free uh i wasn't paid for an opinion he's turned down i don't know what that popping is me neither 193 00:21:10,180 --> 00:21:14,520 happened a few times maybe we need to get it sounds like your mic line conditioner talking 194 00:21:14,520 --> 00:21:21,600 yeah maybe you're having an issue um you know well we'll see what happens we'll see if y'all can hear it 195 00:21:21,600 --> 00:21:30,460 tell us about it and sorry um but he's a very a stand-up guy and he's very very upfront about if 196 00:21:30,460 --> 00:21:36,600 he receives any kind of compensation as you know products or i don't think he does like sponsored 197 00:21:36,600 --> 00:21:42,120 segments or anything um and one of his shows is actually his bandrew says podcast is actually value 198 00:21:42,120 --> 00:21:47,160 for value and it's on youtube he turned off all monetization on youtube uh because he wanted to go 199 00:21:47,160 --> 00:21:55,600 value for value and um i trust him yeah but i've also talked to him like a lot not in person because 200 00:21:55,600 --> 00:22:01,980 you know i hung out with him in person but a lot of you know off air not in the comments you know 201 00:22:01,980 --> 00:22:09,080 private conversations i just trust him when it comes to reviewing stuff there's some youtubers and 202 00:22:09,080 --> 00:22:15,680 podcasters that i don't trust any of their reviews i watch their stuff just simply to see like like i'm 203 00:22:15,680 --> 00:22:19,760 looking at computer stuff okay what how much ram does this have what's the maximum capacity because 204 00:22:19,760 --> 00:22:24,500 that's all stuff i could go read that's nice when somebody tells it to you yeah but i don't trust 205 00:22:24,500 --> 00:22:32,280 their their their bias on things even if you just get it for free and you're not getting paid to say 206 00:22:32,280 --> 00:22:36,700 good things about it just getting it for free you're kind of stoked about it you're like oh i want 207 00:22:36,700 --> 00:22:41,640 to keep sending me free stuff i might i might say something real nice about them sorry sorry i'm 208 00:22:41,640 --> 00:22:47,360 clicking a flashlight no it's not the clicking it's the light oh that i have a very good peripheral 209 00:22:47,360 --> 00:22:54,000 vision i can see you right now yeah yeah that's funny um but when when somebody breaks your trust 210 00:22:54,000 --> 00:22:58,400 and they feel like they're your friend because they're in your ear once a week and then they break 211 00:22:58,400 --> 00:23:05,440 your trust it hurts worse than if it's you know up front the company is sponsoring this like most tv 212 00:23:05,440 --> 00:23:12,600 shows back in the day especially existed because of ads you know they were called soap operas because 213 00:23:12,600 --> 00:23:18,500 the soap companies paid for them to be made what you didn't know that no i just thought they were 214 00:23:18,500 --> 00:23:23,860 called that for a silly silly name for silly name no the soap companies can't have meanings i don't know 215 00:23:23,860 --> 00:23:30,740 what companies it was back then but like the soap company paid for the entire episode of the soap opera 216 00:23:30,740 --> 00:23:38,500 wow and oh my god every time anybody was using soap in the show or talking about cleaning things 217 00:23:38,500 --> 00:23:42,660 it was like the truman show you remember the truman show when like she holds up the product and says 218 00:23:42,660 --> 00:23:48,300 would you like some i haven't watched the truman show yet what no i've suggested it like three times 219 00:23:48,300 --> 00:23:52,080 during movie night and you're always like i could have swore you said you watched it with your nana 220 00:23:52,080 --> 00:24:01,080 no huh wish i had i really want to see it okay well watch it then i love that thank you um i just 221 00:24:01,080 --> 00:24:07,340 wanted to watch something that we i thought you hadn't seen anyway anywho that that part of the 222 00:24:07,340 --> 00:24:13,220 internet the the loss of credibility for people like you you're you're more skeptical of people 223 00:24:13,220 --> 00:24:21,120 because you don't know up front what their intentions are we are very clear we don't do ads we're not 224 00:24:21,120 --> 00:24:29,640 shilling for any products ever um that being said that's this show yeah if some company said hey 225 00:24:29,640 --> 00:24:35,980 we're going to create a commercial we'd like y'all to star in it that's just us taking a job yeah you 226 00:24:35,980 --> 00:24:41,160 know um there's no we're not putting any creativity into it it's just we're being a personality 227 00:24:41,160 --> 00:24:47,620 we're being actors right but i do watch like youtubers that have been sponsored 228 00:24:47,620 --> 00:24:56,160 buy things or have gotten promotion promotional items from shops like sir space man one of the 229 00:24:56,160 --> 00:25:03,360 cosplay youtubers that i you whoa youtubers that i watch she has like a serger and like three sewing 230 00:25:03,360 --> 00:25:07,040 machines the companies have sent to her for her to promote and she has like affiliate links 231 00:25:07,040 --> 00:25:16,360 but that doesn't make me not like my singer sewing machine any less you know um but yeah there's 232 00:25:16,360 --> 00:25:23,180 you just have to i feel like if we wanted to tell you about a product and somebody like somebody 233 00:25:23,180 --> 00:25:28,780 sent us a product for free we would definitely tell you we got it for free we try not to let that 234 00:25:28,780 --> 00:25:35,880 affect our opinion of this thing but um they wanted our opinion on it so there is a really good sewing 235 00:25:35,880 --> 00:25:40,660 machine that she has though that's pretty cheap i'll tell you about it but start you an amazon wishlist 236 00:25:40,660 --> 00:25:48,340 your birthday's next week it is um okay so one of the other questions we had here okay how do you and 237 00:25:48,340 --> 00:25:57,600 your friends use the internet okay so i of course talk to them over like what do you call it text 238 00:25:57,600 --> 00:26:03,800 yeah any instant messages instant messages uh i sometimes send them pinterest pens 239 00:26:03,800 --> 00:26:10,440 but like we me and my friends have different ways of using the internet because i have a lot of friends 240 00:26:10,440 --> 00:26:17,720 that use like instagram snapchat crap like that and they they can do that but they use it a lot more for 241 00:26:17,720 --> 00:26:28,680 um like chatting with other people staying in touch drama you know stuff like that right but the internet 242 00:26:28,680 --> 00:26:39,320 for me like in comparison i binge watch crap i listen to stuff i do it's terrible what kind of stuff do 243 00:26:39,320 --> 00:26:46,760 you binge watch um the game grumps so it's game grumps is essentially a podcast right yeah pretty much 244 00:26:46,760 --> 00:26:53,000 honestly i listen to people talking chess while i was hanging up a tapestry in my room earlier right like 245 00:26:53,000 --> 00:26:58,600 they're just silly guys yeah i listen to podcasts a lot and that's one of the things like 246 00:26:58,600 --> 00:27:02,840 i feel like with our listeners you get to know the people and you almost feel like you're hanging out 247 00:27:02,840 --> 00:27:09,000 with them yeah and you're just being quiet i listen to podcasts when i'm cleaning or doing chores that 248 00:27:09,000 --> 00:27:14,920 are mindless and i do um i haven't last couple weeks i'm really behind on my podcast i've been 249 00:27:14,920 --> 00:27:21,800 listening to audiobooks because i've got a bunch of audiobooks i gotta catch up on um but yeah i've seen 250 00:27:21,800 --> 00:27:28,200 you been i've seen you working on something with your hands like crafting something but you've got some 251 00:27:28,200 --> 00:27:31,640 youtube channel on and it's just somebody talking into the camera so it might as well be an audio 252 00:27:31,640 --> 00:27:38,680 podcast yeah but um i've seen you you do that and a couple of them are right right i've just recently 253 00:27:38,680 --> 00:27:43,800 started watching or listening to podcasts even though we've had like a podcast for so long i was like 254 00:27:44,360 --> 00:27:50,760 podcasts aren't aren't that great as you start as i star in a podcast that i've been starring in 255 00:27:50,760 --> 00:27:58,600 thousands of listeners yeah almost five years now yeah that's right that's crazy i was 10 when 256 00:27:58,600 --> 00:28:04,200 this started about 15 in a week yep i think i'm gonna get my permit five years yep you'll be on the 257 00:28:04,200 --> 00:28:11,000 road um watch out so you're talking about listening podcast huh yes i i was uh i listened to like a 258 00:28:11,000 --> 00:28:16,920 couple different ones no promotion on this show to any other podcast get him out of here we should just 259 00:28:16,920 --> 00:28:22,520 go back and bleep out every other mention oh my gosh bleep out the bandrew part to bleep out 260 00:28:23,160 --> 00:28:28,840 curry and the keeper keep them keep them um but yeah so other than listening just listening to 261 00:28:28,840 --> 00:28:34,200 things watching tv also music music is a huge part of my life i don't know if you could tell yeah you 262 00:28:34,200 --> 00:28:40,200 do enjoy the music and thing i like about what you do though is you you you're not only on the current 263 00:28:40,200 --> 00:28:48,440 music yeah you actually span back decades um so i like that that you actually brought your horizons a 264 00:28:48,440 --> 00:28:55,240 little bit every single genre like i've noticed not me i've noticed that a lot of people are like 265 00:28:55,240 --> 00:29:00,360 i like every genre except for like country or i like every genre except for except for rap you know 266 00:29:00,360 --> 00:29:05,880 i appreciate every genre for what it is and i appreciate the good music and the bad music in it you know 267 00:29:05,880 --> 00:29:11,720 like i've started listening to more country and more rap because i want to broaden my horizons a 268 00:29:11,720 --> 00:29:19,160 little bit because i've been kind of standoffish against those two specifically right but i've 269 00:29:19,160 --> 00:29:25,480 realized hey this isn't that bad there's some very specific sub genres that i just can't listen to 270 00:29:25,480 --> 00:29:32,200 certain times of types of techno um there's there's some ones that i just can't i can't handle yeah 271 00:29:32,200 --> 00:29:39,480 and that's fine generic pop like i'm trying to think of who who i can even sabrina carpenter 272 00:29:39,480 --> 00:29:46,760 yeah exactly stuff like that um i don't feel how it it feels very manufactured yeah which i agree 273 00:29:46,760 --> 00:29:50,440 there's a lot of manufactured music that doesn't quite sound manufactured but it is what it is it 274 00:29:50,440 --> 00:29:54,040 doesn't mean i won't jam out to sabrina carpenter once in a while i don't like taylor swift's whole 275 00:29:54,040 --> 00:29:59,260 apparatus going on but a couple of her songs i enjoy listening to yeah if it comes on i'm not switching it 276 00:29:59,260 --> 00:30:09,580 you know yeah i also really enjoy all of the culture around music and just the lyricism the 277 00:30:09,580 --> 00:30:14,240 artistry i i could talk about music for days do you like keeping up with the artists and what they're 278 00:30:14,240 --> 00:30:20,340 doing with their lives and who they're dating and all of that or do you just like as much as i say i 279 00:30:20,340 --> 00:30:29,620 i don't you do um i know all of the charlie xcx lore from when she was like like born to now oh my 280 00:30:29,620 --> 00:30:35,000 gosh because i'm making a presentation about it oh yeah i forgot about that i don't really keep up 281 00:30:35,000 --> 00:30:40,940 with like their dating lives and like where they are because i don't care celebrity gossip i can't i 282 00:30:40,940 --> 00:30:48,440 yeah it i i believe in the the concept of uh the death of the artist are you familiar with that 283 00:30:48,440 --> 00:30:52,560 well i've heard of death of the author but that was a willwood thing well yeah that's death of the 284 00:30:52,560 --> 00:31:00,580 author it's the same thing yeah same so i really and you know say what you want about me i like green 285 00:31:00,580 --> 00:31:07,820 day i do not like reading anything about green day hearing anything about their their politics 286 00:31:07,820 --> 00:31:13,440 or their anything because i just want to listen to the music yeah um there's a lot of people that 287 00:31:13,440 --> 00:31:19,660 hate on jk rowling for some things that she said but they are conflicted because they love this harry 288 00:31:19,660 --> 00:31:25,840 potter and the whole lore and the universe and the nostalgia of it and so they're torn between that 289 00:31:25,840 --> 00:31:31,020 because they don't want to enrich somebody they don't like politically but at the same time they 290 00:31:31,020 --> 00:31:38,060 love the creation so they hate the creator and love the creation oh yeah um so i can i can separate 291 00:31:38,060 --> 00:31:45,040 it in my brain i can separate it a lot too to a point yeah to a point but some of the artists i 292 00:31:45,040 --> 00:31:50,900 listen to are not role models like at all like if i could and they shouldn't be no absolutely not like 293 00:31:50,900 --> 00:31:56,520 will would that is not a role model of a person right but he makes some really good music and i 294 00:31:56,520 --> 00:32:02,100 would love i would love love love to go see one of his shows one day very few people that a lot of 295 00:32:02,100 --> 00:32:08,000 people know their names that are good role models absolutely very few things that mr rogers ever did 296 00:32:08,000 --> 00:32:16,180 in public were controversial in any way it was generally a positive for the world um steve erwin 297 00:32:16,180 --> 00:32:22,160 same way and bob ross same way that i know of like i said there may be they may have said or done 298 00:32:22,160 --> 00:32:27,580 something terrible i don't know about it you know but there's very few people out there that i would 299 00:32:27,580 --> 00:32:31,260 consider a role model everything i've heard about keanu reeves is that he'd be a good role model 300 00:32:31,260 --> 00:32:37,780 but yeah you don't know everything about him you know there's people can hide things i mean he's 301 00:32:37,780 --> 00:32:42,440 breathtaking no you're breathtaking love that stupid video 302 00:32:42,440 --> 00:32:47,480 oh wow there was an old martin short you knew martin short is 303 00:32:47,480 --> 00:32:51,860 he's a comedian comedian back in the day he did a stand-up special 304 00:32:51,860 --> 00:32:57,260 and somebody in the whole group of people in the audience were like when he had was taking a sip of 305 00:32:57,260 --> 00:33:02,860 water or whatever they were like we love you martin and as soon as they said it he just pulled 306 00:33:02,860 --> 00:33:08,320 the the bottle away from his mouth he's like and i love you back oh my gosh he was so fast with it 307 00:33:08,320 --> 00:33:13,280 it's like he was waiting for somebody to do that uh wouldn't surprise me if it was a plant but uh 308 00:33:13,280 --> 00:33:19,640 and i love you back i hate stand-up comedians i'm sorry oh no i get it i get it i like some some of 309 00:33:19,640 --> 00:33:26,020 them are so funny but right and i would love to go see a comedy show i just right i get it i know 310 00:33:26,020 --> 00:33:29,800 exactly what you're saying like you you want to watch them because sometimes they're funny but 311 00:33:29,800 --> 00:33:38,140 just the whole idea of it um so death of creativity and personal style oh yeah okay so i saw a video 312 00:33:38,140 --> 00:33:42,380 i'll try and remember to link it in the show notes like just like you're gonna link that mark robinson 313 00:33:42,380 --> 00:33:50,900 video um basically if you look back at the 50s the 60s the 70s 80s 90s if you saw somebody dressed 314 00:33:50,900 --> 00:33:56,940 in a certain way you would know which of those decades they were coming from yeah like they all 315 00:33:56,940 --> 00:34:05,100 of those decades had a very distinct style but after like 2000 the style when there's like everything 316 00:34:05,100 --> 00:34:11,340 looks the same like you we're you can watch the office any episode of the office and it's 317 00:34:11,340 --> 00:34:18,280 indistinguishable from what year it was made and that spanned like 10 years yeah so like i think 318 00:34:18,280 --> 00:34:24,220 that was a choice though in the office well in the office i mean they're all wearing suits and you know 319 00:34:24,220 --> 00:34:30,580 but they're hairstyles yeah and they're and like the whole look of everything nothing's really changed 320 00:34:30,580 --> 00:34:37,980 style wise but i think that's because everything is a mashup of everything that's happened before yeah 321 00:34:37,980 --> 00:34:46,460 but i also feel like there is i've noticed a style change it's subtle though and it's not 322 00:34:46,460 --> 00:34:51,780 although i have like studied the style change right you have studied style and all that stuff but what i 323 00:34:51,780 --> 00:34:58,700 mean is it's not so drastic if you look at some like people dressed up in 50s outfits and the way 324 00:34:58,700 --> 00:35:02,440 houses were made in the 50s you can walk into a house that was made in the 70s 325 00:35:02,440 --> 00:35:09,280 and say oh wow this has a whole 70s vibe yeah there was also so much fighting back then and 326 00:35:09,280 --> 00:35:17,000 there was so many movements you know and there's not really that much of that anymore because like 327 00:35:17,000 --> 00:35:21,500 women started wearing pants and there was the whole pants craze and that's when everything started 328 00:35:21,500 --> 00:35:26,720 going downhill apparently apparently did you hear they're letting women drive cars now 329 00:35:26,720 --> 00:35:31,880 do you hear that they're putting pockets in women clothing what do they have to carry around 330 00:35:31,880 --> 00:35:37,340 their secrets that's genuinely why they didn't want women having pockets so they could put secrets 331 00:35:37,340 --> 00:35:43,180 in their pocket like no it's not yes it is watch the style theory video oh it's theory style theory 332 00:35:43,180 --> 00:35:51,940 yes i want to see evidence of this um no pockets make things make fabric sit funny 333 00:35:51,940 --> 00:36:00,740 and a long long time ago your pockets were separate from your dress yeah and that was so cool 334 00:36:00,740 --> 00:36:06,320 you had like pockets on underneath your clothes you like reach inside your clothes and put stuff in 335 00:36:06,320 --> 00:36:11,620 your pockets um but it's still like a big deal when you get pockets in your pants oh i hear it all 336 00:36:11,620 --> 00:36:17,120 the time it's got pockets these pockets on these stupid pants look at what look at this i'm looking 337 00:36:17,120 --> 00:36:21,740 half of a hand no i know into this pocket right here it's because if the whole pocket was there 338 00:36:21,740 --> 00:36:27,820 there'd be like lines what do you see that you could see the pockets yeah i don't care i want 339 00:36:27,820 --> 00:36:32,100 to be able to fit my whole phone in my pocket Leila yes what if i told you that you are very good at 340 00:36:32,100 --> 00:36:37,560 sewing and you have a sewing machine it's not that's not the point fabric that's not the point you 341 00:36:37,560 --> 00:36:41,480 shouldn't have to alter the i shouldn't have to alter my clothes well i'll tell you what as soon as 342 00:36:41,480 --> 00:36:47,740 women stop buying pants with no pockets they'll stop making them you go on strike that's what 343 00:36:47,740 --> 00:36:57,620 capitalism does for you yeah supply and demand but uh with the personal style i am a victim of this too 344 00:36:57,620 --> 00:37:06,680 i have been on the internet my entire life well entire but i have never really had my own personal 345 00:37:06,680 --> 00:37:14,960 style and i'm trying to find that now because i've realized everyone not everyone most people get their 346 00:37:14,960 --> 00:37:22,420 style from the internet with what's popular or what's not popular or what's like in the alternative 347 00:37:22,420 --> 00:37:33,420 scene at the moment you know so since the beginning of time no since people had options on what to wear 348 00:37:33,420 --> 00:37:42,600 there's been style there's been keeping up with the person whoever was viewed as the coolest 349 00:37:42,600 --> 00:37:49,360 which for a while there was like you know royalty right people would emulate royalty 350 00:37:49,360 --> 00:38:00,860 um that's why uh oh who is it i can't remember the style i was i gotta get that guy we can get that 351 00:38:00,860 --> 00:38:07,760 guy on as a guest where we went to a tour down in wilmington of this old old old old house and he was 352 00:38:07,760 --> 00:38:16,860 talking about how styles changed weekly back in like the 1700s 1800s in america and among the upper 353 00:38:16,860 --> 00:38:24,160 class people and it was so specific it was like you go to a dinner party and you know how the forks and 354 00:38:24,160 --> 00:38:29,940 knives were supposed to be laid out yeah the style for that week would be that the the middle most fork 355 00:38:29,940 --> 00:38:35,620 would be flipped upside down and if you went to a party and they did not have that fork flipped that way 356 00:38:35,620 --> 00:38:41,380 they were on the outs on the cool scale oh my gosh there's a season unfortunate events book about 357 00:38:41,380 --> 00:38:47,520 this or with this as a side plot i want to get i want to get the guy who was doing that tour on the 358 00:38:47,520 --> 00:38:52,700 show i've got his card um because i want to talk to him about that and basically they would have memes 359 00:38:52,700 --> 00:38:58,360 i mean it was you know wasn't drawing like they would have things like they would hold their hand a 360 00:38:58,360 --> 00:39:05,540 certain way while speaking and if they didn't everybody knew that they weren't cool and it was 361 00:39:05,540 --> 00:39:09,440 like that specific yeah so that kind of thing has always been around and then when you talk about 362 00:39:09,440 --> 00:39:14,400 styles all of them coming from the internet that's where everybody gets their information and their 363 00:39:14,400 --> 00:39:19,260 entertainment and everything now so where else would it come from you know yeah um back in the day 364 00:39:19,260 --> 00:39:26,380 it was the people on tv if you saw the guys on hawaii 50 wearing something they were the coolest 365 00:39:26,380 --> 00:39:33,120 guys on tv so everybody was wearing hawaiian shirts for a little while and like miami vice and michael 366 00:39:33,120 --> 00:39:40,480 jackson and people look to whoever's the coolest and now people have like i was talking about the 367 00:39:40,480 --> 00:39:47,660 different subcultures on the internet everybody thinks that different people are the coolest so 368 00:39:47,660 --> 00:39:54,720 fashion has splintered so widely because people are trying to emulate the people that they find cool 369 00:39:54,720 --> 00:40:04,660 then you have all of these like sub genres of style so there's not one cohesive society-wide style 370 00:40:04,660 --> 00:40:09,920 like there was in like the 80s you look at the 80s everybody dressed the same yeah you know i mean 371 00:40:09,920 --> 00:40:13,640 not everybody there was your business people they all dressed like the business people from the 80s there 372 00:40:13,640 --> 00:40:18,560 was your cool guys they all dressed like cool guys there was your you know there was different scenes 373 00:40:18,560 --> 00:40:24,460 but it was like maybe four different type styles but you can always tell an 80s style versus a 90s 374 00:40:24,460 --> 00:40:31,020 style you know um yeah what's going on are you taking your mic apart 375 00:40:31,020 --> 00:40:37,560 we got so muted myself so you could talk about something other than me fixing my mic 376 00:40:37,560 --> 00:40:43,980 i was like talk okay people love hearing about technical issues as long as it doesn't go on 377 00:40:43,980 --> 00:40:48,260 for like five minutes trying to come out oh okay i gotcha wasn't snapped in i was gonna talk about that 378 00:40:48,260 --> 00:40:54,780 that's probably my fault i was gonna talk about the um the book series of unfortunate events yeah 379 00:40:54,780 --> 00:41:01,340 ursat's elevator that's those name of the book in like a 13 book series where uh what's her name 380 00:41:01,340 --> 00:41:10,140 esme squalor she's like this real not she's really popular celebrity i guess you could call her but she's 381 00:41:10,140 --> 00:41:12,620 like the person in town and she 382 00:41:12,620 --> 00:41:21,740 is told what's out and in and she is immediately changing everything it's really funny so like in 1984 383 00:41:21,740 --> 00:41:27,800 yeah so she'll like read the paper and be like curtains are out and she'll like 384 00:41:27,800 --> 00:41:35,800 rip the curtains down so that happens in 1984 oh yeah there's a there's a part where 385 00:41:35,800 --> 00:41:45,540 um europa which is there's britannia and you're oh wow it's been too long i've forgotten the names 386 00:41:45,540 --> 00:41:50,900 there's there's multiple nation states there's multiple regions right and they're always at war 387 00:41:50,900 --> 00:41:56,180 or peace with one or the other so like yeah it's really bugging me i can't remember the names of them 388 00:41:56,180 --> 00:42:04,940 but um britannia is at war with east asia right and east asia is the enemy so there's all this 389 00:42:04,940 --> 00:42:11,520 propaganda posters anti-east asia propaganda posters everywhere right well one day big brother 390 00:42:11,520 --> 00:42:17,800 decides that we're not at war with east asia we're at war with europa we've always been at war 391 00:42:17,800 --> 00:42:24,780 with europa we've never been at war with east asia they're our allies so this gets announced 392 00:42:24,780 --> 00:42:30,360 and people immediately they're in the streets screaming about how much they hate east asia 393 00:42:30,360 --> 00:42:36,260 and immediately as soon as they hear that big brother said we've never been at war with east 394 00:42:36,260 --> 00:42:42,920 asia they're our allies they immediately who put up this propaganda that we're at war with east asia 395 00:42:42,920 --> 00:42:50,680 and they go start tearing down the posters saying that our enemies from eurasia have put up these 396 00:42:50,680 --> 00:42:55,940 propaganda posters to try and trick us to thinking that we're at war against east asia and it was like 397 00:42:55,940 --> 00:43:02,040 an immediate flip the switch thing and i've seen this happen in american politics too where people 398 00:43:02,040 --> 00:43:07,960 are screaming one thing but then as soon as something happens and the messaging changes they're 399 00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:14,100 screaming the exact opposite and pretending they never screamed the first thing yeah and it's amazing 400 00:43:14,100 --> 00:43:18,260 to me it blows my mind but that sounds very similar to that and i think there's something in alice in 401 00:43:18,260 --> 00:43:22,620 wonderland too right where she wants to paint all the things red yeah like it's immediate but then 402 00:43:22,620 --> 00:43:30,060 she's like i didn't tell you to paint those red yeah mind games but what i was saying about 403 00:43:30,060 --> 00:43:35,280 personal style before you right went off on your tangent because i was trying to butt in you just 404 00:43:35,280 --> 00:43:43,660 talking uh but i've found that style on the internet is not style in real life but it also kind of is 405 00:43:43,660 --> 00:43:47,880 because so many people rely on the internet and so many people go to the internet for what's popular 406 00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:53,540 i gotta get what's popular i gotta get the lululemon shorts but uh is that a pyramid scheme 407 00:43:53,540 --> 00:43:59,580 uh probably wait no it's not it's just stores oh okay but i couldn't there was a there was a pyramid 408 00:43:59,580 --> 00:44:07,340 scheme similar to that yeah uh you just gotta be you man if you want to look to the internet for that 409 00:44:07,340 --> 00:44:14,760 sure go right ahead but also look to yourself for what you want to wear and what is you you have to 410 00:44:14,760 --> 00:44:22,200 be the you you are that's that's a severance reference um but here's the thing though 411 00:44:22,200 --> 00:44:29,160 what if you don't you don't have that creative streak to feel a certain way the thing is you do 412 00:44:29,160 --> 00:44:31,980 i feel like everyone has creativity they just don't know how to harness it 413 00:44:31,980 --> 00:44:39,700 yeah and people don't vary to varying levels but then there's also like like me right let's take this 414 00:44:39,700 --> 00:44:45,500 for example what do i typically wear t-shirt and jeans exactly every day do you think that i'm just 415 00:44:45,500 --> 00:44:52,200 like oh you know what these people t-shirt and jeans they wear that they look cool you know no i wear 416 00:44:52,200 --> 00:44:57,720 jeans because i like the way they feel like you how often do you see me wearing shorts of any kind 417 00:44:57,720 --> 00:45:04,460 even like around the house like once in like two months right it's hot because it's too hot or like 418 00:45:04,460 --> 00:45:11,040 all my jeans are in the wash yeah or it's a pajama day pajama don't have exactly um i like the way that 419 00:45:11,040 --> 00:45:20,120 it feels when i have jeans on so i do that i will wear whatever shirt is clean and fits yeah so 420 00:45:20,120 --> 00:45:26,360 typically like if i see one with a fun design oh yeah cool i'll grab that it does it fit yes and it'll 421 00:45:26,360 --> 00:45:34,080 be clean no problem yeah i don't like you know and i guess i'm just kind of being like cynical 422 00:45:34,080 --> 00:45:43,520 because i'm i'm very focused on personal style and perception of other like myself in other people's 423 00:45:43,520 --> 00:45:49,380 eyes yeah you want to you want to know if you think it's cool you might think that other people might 424 00:45:49,380 --> 00:45:55,860 think that you're cool for wearing it yeah hey that looks cool you know i want people to look at me 425 00:45:55,860 --> 00:46:03,820 and see me for me you know you're trying to i think a lot of people do this you're trying to 426 00:46:03,820 --> 00:46:11,560 take something and show the world this is the thing that i like i like this aesthetic and a lot of the 427 00:46:11,560 --> 00:46:16,020 things that go along with this aesthetic yeah because if you're wearing like a flowy pair of like 428 00:46:16,020 --> 00:46:22,900 the thin pants with the funky designs on them it shows that you're a little carefree yeah i wear those 429 00:46:22,900 --> 00:46:27,040 once in a while they're cool right like hippie clothes kind of put off a certain vibe that 430 00:46:27,040 --> 00:46:32,120 everybody instantly gets what's that someone asked me if i was a hippie the other day yeah i was like 431 00:46:32,120 --> 00:46:37,620 sure whatever you perceive me as man i wear deodorant and shave my armpits i'm not hippie 432 00:46:37,620 --> 00:46:44,440 um and that's the thing some when somebody's wearing certain clothes people will assume certain things 433 00:46:44,440 --> 00:46:51,780 about you if you were all goth stuff some people are just going to avoid you because the last goth 434 00:46:51,780 --> 00:46:57,920 that they dealt with was super cringy goth person or their parents are like goth people are bad 435 00:46:57,920 --> 00:47:04,280 exactly yeah you can get dungeons and dragons that's the devil satanic panic of the 80s i remember i remember 436 00:47:04,280 --> 00:47:11,960 it um i love saying that what dungeons and dragons that's the devil that's the devil it does have some 437 00:47:11,960 --> 00:47:17,380 some devilish stuff in it but it's all fantasy it's a it's a and yeah it's the thing is it's a 438 00:47:17,380 --> 00:47:21,180 dragons is what you make of it it's a battle system and you can make all of the bad guys 439 00:47:21,180 --> 00:47:29,240 yeah it's a method um but no when i say dnd i'm thinking i'm talking about like all of the tabletop 440 00:47:29,240 --> 00:47:33,560 rpgs i just kind of shorthanded as dnd because people know what you're talking about i need to start a 441 00:47:33,560 --> 00:47:37,980 campaign yeah we should we should start a um tabletop rpg it doesn't even have to be dnd 442 00:47:37,980 --> 00:47:44,420 we can come up with our own little dice system i did it did it before um i have my little group i 443 00:47:44,420 --> 00:47:52,940 want to start it with cool let's get it get it rolling yeah let's get it rolling so um you were 444 00:47:52,940 --> 00:47:58,400 you also wanted to talk about the monetization of media yeah we touched on it earlier okay that's 445 00:47:58,400 --> 00:48:05,140 that's good okay so the thing i don't like about the internet and i'm not being super cynical trying 446 00:48:05,140 --> 00:48:09,380 to be super cynical or negative about everything but one of the things i don't like is when it comes 447 00:48:09,380 --> 00:48:15,940 to like the monetization like so i'm really into free and open source software i'm into self-hosting 448 00:48:15,940 --> 00:48:22,840 things and this is where it's going to get nerdy so if you're not into computer stuff networking stuff 449 00:48:22,840 --> 00:48:27,860 all that you can bail out now have a great week we'll see you next time 450 00:48:27,860 --> 00:48:33,520 okay only the nerds are left let's let's get into this if you have any questions Leila 451 00:48:33,520 --> 00:48:41,380 like anything just uh throw another so here's what i've been doing i'm trying to get everything 452 00:48:41,380 --> 00:48:47,420 working on our network and i'm watching a lot of these youtube channels about like self-hosting 453 00:48:47,420 --> 00:48:52,900 your own media servers and things like that well i've got plex up and running for our our media 454 00:48:52,900 --> 00:48:58,420 so that's where we can we can have our tv shows movies things like that and then we can also have 455 00:48:58,420 --> 00:49:03,580 our music and uh there's some cool apps that go along with that plex is a company i'm sorry 456 00:49:03,580 --> 00:49:10,600 uh plex is a company you don't like plex amp no i hate it i've never used it i like the app on the 457 00:49:10,600 --> 00:49:15,780 phone but i don't like how it acts on the on the in the car i just use youtube music and youtube music's 458 00:49:15,780 --> 00:49:23,580 fine i mean we pay for it so um but with plex amp or plex it's a company and there's another one 459 00:49:23,580 --> 00:49:30,660 called jellyfin which is all open source but it requires a lot more setup uh plex is really nice 460 00:49:30,660 --> 00:49:36,020 because you have your sign in and you don't have to like open up ports on your router to allow traffic 461 00:49:36,020 --> 00:49:42,140 to come in and out so you can access it outside the home um if you set it to that's yeah if you set 462 00:49:42,140 --> 00:49:47,620 it to do that but with jellyfin you have to do all that stuff with you know a reverse proxy and all 463 00:49:47,620 --> 00:49:53,560 that but there's no company out there that's being a middleman and you know can see what's in your 464 00:49:53,560 --> 00:49:58,120 library and stuff like that we only have all legitimate media in our library of course of course 465 00:49:58,120 --> 00:50:05,660 um and then on top of the media server i've got what's called a pie hole i've got two of them oh 466 00:50:05,660 --> 00:50:13,100 they're amazing the pie hole is a whole network ad blocker and how does that work that works by 467 00:50:13,100 --> 00:50:19,340 not allowing traffic from certain sources and there's these huge lists that you can download 468 00:50:19,340 --> 00:50:27,160 of all of the sources of ads so the the way that it works though is that the ad comes in 469 00:50:27,160 --> 00:50:34,280 and pie hole stops it from getting to your device so the server that's serving the ad thinks that 470 00:50:34,280 --> 00:50:39,000 we're watching the ad you can also block websites yeah you can also block i mean you can do that on 471 00:50:39,000 --> 00:50:44,920 your router too but you can block any domain uh you can block regions of the world you can also do 472 00:50:44,920 --> 00:50:52,340 your local dns which is really nice because if i want to type in Leila's computer instead of the ip 473 00:50:52,340 --> 00:50:58,740 address of her computer to log in and do some remote stuff i can set that there and have have it to 474 00:50:58,740 --> 00:51:04,260 where i don't have to remember all these ip addresses or have a list i can just type in um you know 475 00:51:04,260 --> 00:51:09,480 minecraft server and press enter and i can get into the minecraft server that's really nice and 476 00:51:09,480 --> 00:51:15,220 that runs through the pie hole too well i've got two pie holes in case one fails and they both sync 477 00:51:15,220 --> 00:51:21,320 up once a day so if i make any changes on one it goes to the other um and that's on two separate 478 00:51:21,320 --> 00:51:25,700 devices i've got this thing called it's an orange pie it's like a raspberry pi computer but it's smaller 479 00:51:25,700 --> 00:51:31,540 and cheaper and faster um and harder and better and stronger yeah and faster um so i've got a couple of 480 00:51:31,540 --> 00:51:37,780 those running but what i'm doing is i've taken my pc which is like my main server which is the one 481 00:51:37,780 --> 00:51:44,000 that we do the podcast post processing and the video creation and the um show notes and chapters 482 00:51:44,000 --> 00:51:51,120 and all that on and i've taken the two orange pies which were on usb power and i've taken the usb 483 00:51:51,120 --> 00:51:56,220 headers the little pins on the motherboard that you can extend out to have extra usb ports on the 484 00:51:56,220 --> 00:52:01,420 outside of the case but i've just put them inside the case so i've got the two i've got the orange 485 00:52:01,420 --> 00:52:12,140 pies mounted inside the computer case and then i 3d printed a keystone jack uh pcie slot or you know 486 00:52:12,140 --> 00:52:16,740 the the slot on the back of the computer that would have you know video card ports or ethernet ports 487 00:52:16,740 --> 00:52:21,840 whatever if there's a card there but it just has pass-throughs for ethernet so i can plug an ethernet 488 00:52:21,840 --> 00:52:26,940 cable into each side of it so the little computers inside the big computer can have ethernet 489 00:52:26,940 --> 00:52:37,620 like in in the movie we watched as computers in my computer um so then i also have what's called a kvm 490 00:52:37,620 --> 00:52:44,860 it's a pi kvm it's a pi hole what does it stand for uh pi kvm is keyboard video mouse 491 00:52:44,860 --> 00:52:56,220 i believe oh yeah keyboard video mouse so basically it lets me control a computer remotely as if i were 492 00:52:56,220 --> 00:53:04,220 sitting at it it has a usb that goes into the usb of the computer an ethernet cable that goes into the 493 00:53:04,220 --> 00:53:11,540 ethernet or into the kvm port so i can remotely virtually press the power button of the computer 494 00:53:11,540 --> 00:53:19,400 so the computer can be completely off but i can send a signal that the computer receives as me 495 00:53:19,400 --> 00:53:24,100 physically pushing the button which means i can get into the bios of the computer remotely 496 00:53:24,100 --> 00:53:32,540 and it's really cool so i've got that in there and i've got the motherboard of the main pc set up to 497 00:53:32,540 --> 00:53:39,220 where the power to the usb ports is always on and i'm going to set up to where i can power off and on 498 00:53:39,220 --> 00:53:44,580 the mini computers inside the main computer remotely still working on that whole process 499 00:53:44,580 --> 00:53:52,300 but on top of all that physical stuff i've got my video game servers and then i'm using what's called 500 00:53:52,300 --> 00:53:58,420 proxmox and you've seen me use proxmox it's where you can have virtual computers inside of your main 501 00:53:58,420 --> 00:54:06,060 computer yeah so like if you've got a quad core processor i can have four one core computers loaded up 502 00:54:06,060 --> 00:54:10,840 all with different different operating systems different ip addresses everything so it's as if 503 00:54:10,840 --> 00:54:20,420 i have four computers and didn't you even use a proxmox that was linux and you have a windows 504 00:54:20,420 --> 00:54:25,740 yeah yeah you can uh you can set up any operating system on the fake computers that you want 505 00:54:25,740 --> 00:54:32,760 and just log into them remotely and it's just a whole it's a whole fake computer and you can just 506 00:54:32,760 --> 00:54:40,540 roll it up delete it turn it on turn it off it's it's really neat but i'm running uh heimdall which is 507 00:54:40,540 --> 00:54:46,500 a a dashboard program that has all of your local services on it and oh my gosh let me see what what 508 00:54:46,500 --> 00:54:54,060 do we have running here what do we have here um i've got an ai whisper program for the audio 509 00:54:54,060 --> 00:55:00,580 transcription of this show that you're listening to right now um i've got audio bookshelf which 510 00:55:00,580 --> 00:55:07,420 has all of our audio books that we've purchased legally from audible we have used our drm key 511 00:55:07,420 --> 00:55:16,260 to rip them to be able to play on audio bookshelf because we legally own them um but i want to be able 512 00:55:16,260 --> 00:55:21,820 to listen to them in audio bookshelf and not just on the audible app so i removed the drm from them which 513 00:55:21,820 --> 00:55:28,520 may or may not be i mean i bought them so i've got them they're mine um a license in perpetuity 514 00:55:28,520 --> 00:55:34,100 we have the umbral which is how we get our bitcoin stuff uh what else do we have on here 515 00:55:34,100 --> 00:55:37,500 plex piehole yeah i think i've kind of gone through most of the stuff we have 516 00:55:37,500 --> 00:55:45,480 um it's really neat i'm hoping to put together an episode just about this and do like a really deep 517 00:55:45,480 --> 00:55:51,920 dive into it to get anybody up to speed if anybody wants to go through any of this stuff with me 518 00:55:51,920 --> 00:55:58,660 how i would like to do tutorial videos is me to actually help someone set it up because i feel 519 00:55:58,660 --> 00:56:06,660 like that's how i speak the best is when i'm teaching so may may go through and do that um 520 00:56:06,660 --> 00:56:16,000 yeah audio bookshelf for our books um plex for our tv shows and movies and music and then um 521 00:56:16,000 --> 00:56:20,620 oh my gosh what my home room teacher didn't know what digital media was the other day 522 00:56:20,620 --> 00:56:24,440 didn't know what she didn't know what digital media was 523 00:56:24,440 --> 00:56:31,280 but i mean when somebody told her like nobody else did nobody else knew either except for me 524 00:56:31,280 --> 00:56:36,800 does nobody just call it that or no nobody calls it that apparently we had a lesson on 525 00:56:36,800 --> 00:56:45,540 safety with safety on digital media and um like digital media addictions and like 526 00:56:45,540 --> 00:56:52,860 my home room teacher was like yeah i don't know if they just meant like social media but i don't know 527 00:56:52,860 --> 00:56:58,000 what digital media is so i mean it's pretty self-explanatory digital you know what media is 528 00:56:58,000 --> 00:57:02,620 it's media that's digital you know what media is that's what i said i don't think my home room 529 00:57:02,620 --> 00:57:09,060 teacher likes me very much and i kind of see why that's okay it's okay let's not talk about too 530 00:57:09,060 --> 00:57:14,520 much about school she made sausage balls oh my gosh were they good yes oh i had some sausage and 531 00:57:14,520 --> 00:57:19,860 peppers at the uh
