16
00:00:51.359 --> 00:00:55.399
<v Speaker 2>that I got from my camper. This summer, we are

17
00:00:55.479 --> 00:00:58.119
<v Speaker 2>going up to the lake, you know, like my wife's

18
00:00:58.119 --> 00:01:00.679
<v Speaker 2>family's trip every year we go to the Upper pennsul

19
00:01:00.679 --> 00:01:01.119
<v Speaker 2>of Michigan.

20
00:01:01.479 --> 00:01:03.960
<v Speaker 1>Kind of humid this time of year. Does it get

21
00:01:03.960 --> 00:01:05.640
<v Speaker 1>a little human Not that bad?

22
00:01:05.719 --> 00:01:08.599
<v Speaker 2>No, I mean it's it's Michigan. I don't really know

23
00:01:08.599 --> 00:01:11.799
<v Speaker 2>how to explain it. Not like the Salve where it's

24
00:01:11.840 --> 00:01:14.239
<v Speaker 2>like ninety five percent humidi all time. Right, he'll be

25
00:01:14.280 --> 00:01:17.439
<v Speaker 2>daymore against that humid. But it's the weather along the

26
00:01:17.519 --> 00:01:19.040
<v Speaker 2>lake like Michigan is really nice.

27
00:01:20.040 --> 00:01:20.319
<v Speaker 1>Right.

28
00:01:21.000 --> 00:01:23.439
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, we're gonna get some time to travel in at least,

29
00:01:23.480 --> 00:01:27.879
<v Speaker 2>but just until graduation. Man, it's it's been busy, busy, busy.

30
00:01:28.040 --> 00:01:30.319
<v Speaker 1>You did something this past weekend that I thought was

31
00:01:30.319 --> 00:01:31.359
<v Speaker 1>actually pretty cool.

32
00:01:31.439 --> 00:01:35.879
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, past weekend, the University of Notre Dame hosts the

33
00:01:36.200 --> 00:01:42.079
<v Speaker 2>fish Off National Chamber Music Society, the National Chamber Music

34
00:01:42.120 --> 00:01:46.560
<v Speaker 2>Association competition every year and it brings students from all

35
00:01:46.599 --> 00:01:49.879
<v Speaker 2>over the world at a senior level. So that's like

36
00:01:50.400 --> 00:01:53.599
<v Speaker 2>grad students, college students, et cetera, and then juniors, which

37
00:01:53.640 --> 00:01:57.920
<v Speaker 2>is like twelve to eighteen, and it's two day competition.

38
00:01:58.280 --> 00:02:01.280
<v Speaker 2>It's it's a multiple day competition where there's that to

39
00:02:01.599 --> 00:02:04.200
<v Speaker 2>the semi finals and then the finals. We at starting

40
00:02:04.319 --> 00:02:08.319
<v Speaker 2>Studios produce and direct the last two days of the competition, right,

41
00:02:08.520 --> 00:02:11.560
<v Speaker 2>So I was the technical director and director for that.

42
00:02:11.840 --> 00:02:14.520
<v Speaker 2>And on Saturday it was eleven and a half hours

43
00:02:15.560 --> 00:02:16.319
<v Speaker 2>live music.

44
00:02:16.800 --> 00:02:18.520
<v Speaker 1>Eleven and a half Now.

45
00:02:19.199 --> 00:02:21.120
<v Speaker 2>I think there were twenty five groups.

46
00:02:21.360 --> 00:02:26.000
<v Speaker 1>You're streaming this live over the campus like close circuit television.

47
00:02:26.719 --> 00:02:28.879
<v Speaker 2>No, it's it's to their YouTube page.

48
00:02:29.120 --> 00:02:31.919
<v Speaker 1>Oh wow on YouTube? Kid, Was there any way to

49
00:02:31.919 --> 00:02:35.520
<v Speaker 1>get metrics back to see hey, people are watching this

50
00:02:35.680 --> 00:02:37.960
<v Speaker 1>or because that's always the part about I know.

51
00:02:37.919 --> 00:02:41.599
<v Speaker 2>What the live metrics were, but be good. I mean

52
00:02:41.639 --> 00:02:43.719
<v Speaker 2>we got I don't know, I'd have to look at

53
00:02:43.719 --> 00:02:45.960
<v Speaker 2>the metrics. I don't really pay attention to that stuff,

54
00:02:45.960 --> 00:02:50.719
<v Speaker 2>I guess. But it's a it's a worldwide international competition.

55
00:02:51.080 --> 00:02:51.599
<v Speaker 1>Oh wow.

56
00:02:52.319 --> 00:02:55.800
<v Speaker 2>So I think I think the group that won was

57
00:02:55.800 --> 00:03:00.599
<v Speaker 2>a string quartet from Juilliard. Wow. Yeah, I mean it's

58
00:03:00.800 --> 00:03:04.159
<v Speaker 2>it's two days of probably some of the best chamber

59
00:03:04.199 --> 00:03:08.599
<v Speaker 2>of music you'll hear in the setting at that level.

60
00:03:08.719 --> 00:03:10.879
<v Speaker 1>That was kind of cool because you do enjoy that

61
00:03:10.960 --> 00:03:14.080
<v Speaker 1>music as I do as well. So like it wasn't

62
00:03:14.120 --> 00:03:16.719
<v Speaker 1>anything you didn't like, Like if you didn't like country

63
00:03:16.800 --> 00:03:19.319
<v Speaker 1>music and it was a country music thing, that would

64
00:03:19.319 --> 00:03:19.719
<v Speaker 1>be rough.

65
00:03:20.360 --> 00:03:22.439
<v Speaker 2>Yeah. So, I mean some of the people that have

66
00:03:22.479 --> 00:03:24.159
<v Speaker 2>done it in the past of it just like it's

67
00:03:24.280 --> 00:03:26.120
<v Speaker 2>you know, like one of the other engineers last year,

68
00:03:26.120 --> 00:03:30.280
<v Speaker 2>he just he doesn't really care for classical music. So

69
00:03:30.400 --> 00:03:32.400
<v Speaker 2>he's just kind of like, it's I have to sit

70
00:03:32.479 --> 00:03:34.439
<v Speaker 2>here and injury the show, and I don't just sit

71
00:03:34.520 --> 00:03:37.039
<v Speaker 2>here to play solitaire or something on my fault, Right,

72
00:03:37.479 --> 00:03:40.080
<v Speaker 2>So I got to pop in and I actually got

73
00:03:40.120 --> 00:03:42.439
<v Speaker 2>to TD direct this one. It's great. I'm gonna give

74
00:03:42.479 --> 00:03:45.560
<v Speaker 2>Andy the links he can put to the two pages

75
00:03:45.639 --> 00:03:48.080
<v Speaker 2>up there. The last day. I'll just put the last

76
00:03:48.159 --> 00:03:50.159
<v Speaker 2>day to seven and a half hours or almost eight

77
00:03:50.199 --> 00:03:51.360
<v Speaker 2>hours of content.

78
00:03:51.240 --> 00:03:53.120
<v Speaker 1>And people go in there and they could watch it.

79
00:03:53.159 --> 00:03:53.800
<v Speaker 1>That's pretty cool.

80
00:03:53.960 --> 00:03:56.000
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, watch it and then and then you kind of

81
00:03:56.000 --> 00:03:57.560
<v Speaker 2>get an idea of what fish Off is and if

82
00:03:57.560 --> 00:03:59.680
<v Speaker 2>if you're inclined, you can donate to fish Off. It's

83
00:03:59.719 --> 00:04:04.280
<v Speaker 2>a non profit and they support international music and it's

84
00:04:04.719 --> 00:04:09.879
<v Speaker 2>a really incredible international music competition, right that is hosted here.

85
00:04:09.879 --> 00:04:12.240
<v Speaker 2>It's up end. It's been here for like something fifty

86
00:04:12.240 --> 00:04:13.360
<v Speaker 2>something years. You know what.

87
00:04:13.400 --> 00:04:15.560
<v Speaker 1>I always wonder though, and we've run up against this,

88
00:04:15.599 --> 00:04:18.759
<v Speaker 1>and I wonder how that works with classical music because

89
00:04:19.399 --> 00:04:22.399
<v Speaker 1>we have done you know where you have maybe a

90
00:04:22.439 --> 00:04:24.720
<v Speaker 1>song in the background. I even shot a video once

91
00:04:24.759 --> 00:04:28.680
<v Speaker 1>at the Oral Valley Country Club and the speakers were

92
00:04:28.720 --> 00:04:32.839
<v Speaker 1>playing music outside and I got flagged by YouTube for

93
00:04:32.959 --> 00:04:35.680
<v Speaker 1>it for copyright infringement because of the music that was

94
00:04:35.720 --> 00:04:38.680
<v Speaker 1>playing over the speakers. I appealed it and they okayed it.

95
00:04:38.720 --> 00:04:42.639
<v Speaker 1>They let it go. But how does a concert venue

96
00:04:43.000 --> 00:04:46.199
<v Speaker 1>on YouTube streaming? Do they get by the rights?

97
00:04:46.759 --> 00:04:48.519
<v Speaker 2>If I remember correctly, it has to do something with

98
00:04:48.600 --> 00:04:50.839
<v Speaker 2>the music groups that they licensed it through. They got

99
00:04:50.879 --> 00:04:53.759
<v Speaker 2>the light the rights to stream it because they're nonprofit.

100
00:04:53.800 --> 00:04:55.800
<v Speaker 2>I'm sure there has something to do involve. But yeah,

101
00:04:55.839 --> 00:04:58.720
<v Speaker 2>it was incredible. I mean, like I said, some of

102
00:04:58.759 --> 00:05:02.920
<v Speaker 2>the most incredible and some of these kids are twelve

103
00:05:03.000 --> 00:05:03.800
<v Speaker 2>to eighteen.

104
00:05:03.519 --> 00:05:04.680
<v Speaker 1>Years old, oh wow.

105
00:05:05.399 --> 00:05:07.639
<v Speaker 2>Because there's a junior division, and then there's a senior division,

106
00:05:07.639 --> 00:05:10.680
<v Speaker 2>which senior division is I think eighteen to like college

107
00:05:10.680 --> 00:05:13.639
<v Speaker 2>age students, so mid twenties. The group that won, so

108
00:05:13.879 --> 00:05:15.759
<v Speaker 2>it ends up so there's two different groups. There's a

109
00:05:15.839 --> 00:05:18.560
<v Speaker 2>string group and a win ensemble group, so like think

110
00:05:18.639 --> 00:05:23.920
<v Speaker 2>like saxophones and horn horn things or just strings like cello, violin, based,

111
00:05:23.920 --> 00:05:27.959
<v Speaker 2>et cetera. And then they compete. They compete and then

112
00:05:28.240 --> 00:05:30.680
<v Speaker 2>there's gold win gold medal winners in each category, so

113
00:05:30.680 --> 00:05:33.040
<v Speaker 2>a gold gold medal strings and a gold medal wins

114
00:05:33.079 --> 00:05:37.279
<v Speaker 2>and then those two compete for a grand prize. That

115
00:05:37.319 --> 00:05:41.959
<v Speaker 2>Grand prize includes like a residency in Europe where they

116
00:05:42.000 --> 00:05:45.279
<v Speaker 2>play and they travel around Europe and play, and it's

117
00:05:45.319 --> 00:05:47.319
<v Speaker 2>a very prestigious competition, right, And.

118
00:05:47.240 --> 00:05:49.360
<v Speaker 1>It's great for the kids because they it's a love

119
00:05:49.399 --> 00:05:52.759
<v Speaker 1>of music, which you know that they can't go wrong

120
00:05:52.800 --> 00:05:54.839
<v Speaker 1>with that. That's really cool. And they're playing an instrument

121
00:05:54.839 --> 00:05:57.279
<v Speaker 1>as well. Yeah, we'll put the links up on our

122
00:05:57.319 --> 00:05:59.319
<v Speaker 1>blog if you want to check that out at blog

123
00:05:59.360 --> 00:06:01.839
<v Speaker 1>dot tech talk dot com. A lot has happened in

124
00:06:01.839 --> 00:06:03.920
<v Speaker 1>the world of tech the last week. One of the

125
00:06:03.959 --> 00:06:06.680
<v Speaker 1>things that I wanted to talk about last week before,

126
00:06:06.879 --> 00:06:10.480
<v Speaker 1>just for Mother's Day, I thought was interesting because you know,

127
00:06:10.519 --> 00:06:13.759
<v Speaker 1>we call you the wise Guy, Sean because generally, I mean,

128
00:06:13.800 --> 00:06:16.720
<v Speaker 1>you're the one who introduced us to Why's when Wy's

129
00:06:16.759 --> 00:06:18.720
<v Speaker 1>first came around, you said, hey, you guys got to

130
00:06:18.800 --> 00:06:22.120
<v Speaker 1>check out these wise cameras. They're a security camera that

131
00:06:22.360 --> 00:06:26.879
<v Speaker 1>is relatively inexpensive and very easy to use. And they

132
00:06:27.160 --> 00:06:31.319
<v Speaker 1>they kept evolving and putting out more and more product

133
00:06:31.399 --> 00:06:34.199
<v Speaker 1>that was like different and good. But they ran an

134
00:06:34.199 --> 00:06:38.319
<v Speaker 1>ad for Mother's Day to give mom the gift she'll

135
00:06:38.399 --> 00:06:40.959
<v Speaker 1>she'll love. It was a high tech vacuum.

136
00:06:42.639 --> 00:06:45.279
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I've seen It's not the first tech company to

137
00:06:45.279 --> 00:06:47.680
<v Speaker 2>do something like that. It's just to stir up people

138
00:06:47.680 --> 00:06:49.879
<v Speaker 2>are gonna post about ohla call terrible Satis, but it's

139
00:06:49.920 --> 00:06:52.000
<v Speaker 2>just generating positive revenue for them.

140
00:06:52.160 --> 00:06:53.439
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

141
00:06:53.600 --> 00:06:55.759
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, it's a bit tacky. I think Caitlin would be

142
00:06:55.839 --> 00:06:57.079
<v Speaker 2>upset if I got her a vacuum.

143
00:06:57.160 --> 00:06:57.319
<v Speaker 1>Yeah.

144
00:06:57.360 --> 00:07:00.240
<v Speaker 2>For Mother's Day, I got our tickets to go see Wicked.

145
00:07:01.480 --> 00:07:03.199

<v Speaker 2>and back in the mid two thousands and and.

153
00:07:20.439 --> 00:07:23.519
<v Speaker 1>Well, I know that coming up next month they're gonna

154
00:07:23.519 --> 00:07:27.199
<v Speaker 1>be showing Wicked again in the theaters, the original Wicked

155
00:07:27.639 --> 00:07:30.160
<v Speaker 1>in the movie theaters. But the reason they want people

156
00:07:30.160 --> 00:07:33.040
<v Speaker 1>to go is because it will be the unveiling of

157
00:07:33.160 --> 00:07:38.000
<v Speaker 1>the trailer for the next part of Wicked. So it's

158
00:07:38.040 --> 00:07:39.439
<v Speaker 1>kind of weird for those that don't know they put

159
00:07:39.439 --> 00:07:41.639
<v Speaker 1>the movie out. It's a two parter, kind of like

160
00:07:41.680 --> 00:07:44.319
<v Speaker 1>what they did with this newest Mission Impossible film, which

161
00:07:44.480 --> 00:07:46.839
<v Speaker 1>is going to be out, but it's a two parter.

162
00:07:46.959 --> 00:07:50.079
<v Speaker 1>So you watched it and then people said they cried

163
00:07:50.120 --> 00:07:52.040
<v Speaker 1>at the end of it, and now they're gonna go

164
00:07:52.079 --> 00:07:52.639
<v Speaker 1>see it.

165
00:07:52.639 --> 00:07:55.360
<v Speaker 2>It's incredible. It's an incredible movie. I never see incredible

166
00:07:55.399 --> 00:08:02.519
<v Speaker 2>show incredible. The movie and the show are incredible. I've

167
00:08:02.560 --> 00:08:05.199
<v Speaker 2>not seen the live Broadway show. I have only seen

168
00:08:05.279 --> 00:08:08.399
<v Speaker 2>the movie. Kalyn has. Kaitln has gone and seen it

169
00:08:08.959 --> 00:08:11.600
<v Speaker 2>on Broadway and she saw when it was in Lansing

170
00:08:11.639 --> 00:08:13.759
<v Speaker 2>and a couple of other places. She's seen it multiple times.

171
00:08:13.800 --> 00:08:17.360
<v Speaker 2>But it's totally worth going and seeing and it's you know,

172
00:08:17.600 --> 00:08:20.439
<v Speaker 2>it's uh yeah, it's just a good show. Another wise

173
00:08:20.480 --> 00:08:23.759
<v Speaker 2>note though, is about two months ago I got a

174
00:08:23.839 --> 00:08:28.040
<v Speaker 2>survey from WYS kind of detailing do you want or

175
00:08:28.040 --> 00:08:32.240
<v Speaker 2>would you use RTSP native on the camera, So those

176
00:08:32.279 --> 00:08:34.919
<v Speaker 2>who aren't familiar with URTSP is it's a built in

177
00:08:34.960 --> 00:08:37.759
<v Speaker 2>streaming platform that you can then pull in you know,

178
00:08:37.799 --> 00:08:41.279
<v Speaker 2>from like VLC, LBS, et cetera, and stream live basically

179
00:08:41.360 --> 00:08:44.120
<v Speaker 2>live stream the image from the camera. You can then

180
00:08:44.159 --> 00:08:47.120
<v Speaker 2>put that into your own your own recording system and

181
00:08:47.159 --> 00:08:50.720
<v Speaker 2>record locally into your system and they kind of hinted

182
00:08:50.759 --> 00:08:52.639
<v Speaker 2>at maybe well they were going to maybe charged for it,

183
00:08:52.759 --> 00:08:54.960
<v Speaker 2>or if you if it was included in camplus that

184
00:08:55.039 --> 00:08:58.919
<v Speaker 2>kind of stuff. Well, they actually put out a actual

185
00:08:58.960 --> 00:09:03.240
<v Speaker 2>public survey now this this past week, asking for more

186
00:09:03.240 --> 00:09:06.519
<v Speaker 2>feedback on whether or not they would want RTSP because

187
00:09:06.960 --> 00:09:10.279
<v Speaker 2>a lot of these other lower end, lower not lower end,

188
00:09:10.320 --> 00:09:15.000
<v Speaker 2>but lower cost camera platforms are already including RTSP out

189
00:09:15.000 --> 00:09:19.480
<v Speaker 2>of the box, which gives more flexibility because the the

190
00:09:19.600 --> 00:09:22.440
<v Speaker 2>big bummer about WISE is that it's all cloud based

191
00:09:23.759 --> 00:09:26.399
<v Speaker 2>except for recording locally to the SD card. So if

192
00:09:26.440 --> 00:09:28.080
<v Speaker 2>you want to view it on the app, or if

193
00:09:28.080 --> 00:09:31.279
<v Speaker 2>you want to view it while you're away from your home,

194
00:09:31.360 --> 00:09:32.879
<v Speaker 2>it all has to go to the cloud, all right.

195
00:09:32.879 --> 00:09:35.879
<v Speaker 1>So if you sean, if you have one of these

196
00:09:35.919 --> 00:09:40.000
<v Speaker 1>WISE cameras and you have a you know, TF card

197
00:09:40.000 --> 00:09:42.879
<v Speaker 1>that's in there, an SD card that's in the slot

198
00:09:42.919 --> 00:09:46.799
<v Speaker 1>for it, but you don't pay for the monthly service

199
00:09:46.960 --> 00:09:50.559
<v Speaker 1>to Wise, can you still watch video that's been triggered

200
00:09:51.679 --> 00:09:53.159
<v Speaker 1>via a connection? You can't.

201
00:09:53.240 --> 00:09:57.200
<v Speaker 2>You can't watch them, you can't connect to it. You can't.

202
00:09:57.240 --> 00:10:00.519
<v Speaker 2>If you don't pay for their subscription cost, you wouldn't

203
00:10:00.519 --> 00:10:03.759
<v Speaker 2>be able to view it. On the app. When you're

204
00:10:03.799 --> 00:10:05.919
<v Speaker 2>not at home on your Wi Fi, you can then

205
00:10:06.000 --> 00:10:08.879
<v Speaker 2>view locally the local storage. When you're on your own network,

206
00:10:08.919 --> 00:10:11.519
<v Speaker 2>you can view that. If you had a VPN, I'm

207
00:10:11.519 --> 00:10:12.039
<v Speaker 2>sure you know.

208
00:10:12.000 --> 00:10:12.799
<v Speaker 1>You can get that way too.

209
00:10:12.840 --> 00:10:16.240
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, there's nothing stopping from just recording to the

210
00:10:16.279 --> 00:10:20.440
<v Speaker 2>SD card. Now. They what I would recommend if you're

211
00:10:20.440 --> 00:10:22.759
<v Speaker 2>getting into whys do you want to buy multi more

212
00:10:22.799 --> 00:10:25.279
<v Speaker 2>than five or six cameras, Just pay for the cam

213
00:10:25.399 --> 00:10:28.240
<v Speaker 2>Plus Unlimited, which is ninety nine dollars a year, and

214
00:10:28.279 --> 00:10:30.799
<v Speaker 2>you get to subscribe to any number of cameras to

215
00:10:30.840 --> 00:10:33.720
<v Speaker 2>the camp plus platform. Oh really, Now they have they

216
00:10:33.720 --> 00:10:38.919
<v Speaker 2>have other features cam wise monitoring, you know, basically like

217
00:10:39.120 --> 00:10:43.519
<v Speaker 2>auto police calling, and there's a I've had just great

218
00:10:43.519 --> 00:10:46.559
<v Speaker 2>success with just the cam Plus Unlimited, which is ninety

219
00:10:46.600 --> 00:10:49.799
<v Speaker 2>nine bucks a year. I think I have eight cameras, but.

220
00:10:49.879 --> 00:10:51.720
<v Speaker 1>That also cover the doorbell because they have a wise

221
00:10:51.759 --> 00:10:53.279
<v Speaker 1>doorbell as covers the doorbell.

222
00:10:53.320 --> 00:10:55.120
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, covers any of the cameras that can be subscribed

223
00:10:55.120 --> 00:10:58.840
<v Speaker 2>to the camplus platform. So I like them. I had

224
00:10:58.879 --> 00:11:01.159
<v Speaker 2>their two outdoor cameras, I take I take those away

225
00:11:01.159 --> 00:11:03.159
<v Speaker 2>I travel because you can you can hot spot those

226
00:11:03.200 --> 00:11:06.799
<v Speaker 2>and I just hotspot them to my phone and leave

227
00:11:06.960 --> 00:11:08.600
<v Speaker 2>you know, when my phone's in the camper, I can

228
00:11:08.679 --> 00:11:10.639
<v Speaker 2>leave it on and it will trigger me if there's

229
00:11:10.679 --> 00:11:14.159
<v Speaker 2>this motion on it inside my camper. I could do

230
00:11:14.200 --> 00:11:16.960
<v Speaker 2>time lapses with them, things like that. So I like

231
00:11:17.000 --> 00:11:18.039
<v Speaker 2>their outdoor cameras too.

232
00:11:18.440 --> 00:11:21.360
<v Speaker 1>Would you say it's pretty important to have that camp

233
00:11:21.360 --> 00:11:24.279
<v Speaker 1>plus service because if somebody was to come to a

234
00:11:24.360 --> 00:11:26.720
<v Speaker 1>business late at night and they've got the Wise cameras

235
00:11:27.399 --> 00:11:29.840
<v Speaker 1>and they drive up and you're they don't have that

236
00:11:30.039 --> 00:11:34.480
<v Speaker 1>service and they steal the camera, then there there's that's it.

237
00:11:34.519 --> 00:11:37.679
<v Speaker 1>That's you're not going to see. Basically maybe a screen

238
00:11:37.759 --> 00:11:38.799
<v Speaker 1>shot and that's about it.

239
00:11:39.559 --> 00:11:42.440
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean it's kind of up to if you're

240
00:11:43.039 --> 00:11:45.759
<v Speaker 2>serious about doing security, you can't skimp. You gotta pay.

241
00:11:45.919 --> 00:11:48.039
<v Speaker 2>I mean, it's just the nature of it, and that's

242
00:11:48.080 --> 00:11:50.279
<v Speaker 2>why a lot of people are going to But again,

243
00:11:50.360 --> 00:11:54.000
<v Speaker 2>a lot of the ones that offer POE power or

244
00:11:55.639 --> 00:11:57.919
<v Speaker 2>the ability to do RTSP out of the box are

245
00:11:57.919 --> 00:11:59.679
<v Speaker 2>a little bit more expensive. So I mean you're paying

246
00:11:59.679 --> 00:12:02.120
<v Speaker 2>for what you get and a lot of people forget that.

247
00:12:02.480 --> 00:12:05.000
<v Speaker 1>And the quality is not too bad on those Wise cameras.

248
00:12:05.200 --> 00:12:05.759
<v Speaker 1>It's really not.

249
00:12:05.879 --> 00:12:08.440
<v Speaker 2>Oh no, it's not. I mean I've had I have

250
00:12:08.639 --> 00:12:11.799
<v Speaker 2>every almost almost every version of the cameras. I've got

251
00:12:12.159 --> 00:12:14.320
<v Speaker 2>the version one, which I don't even have plugged anymore

252
00:12:14.320 --> 00:12:17.039
<v Speaker 2>because it's just literally they say it's it is such

253
00:12:17.039 --> 00:12:20.399
<v Speaker 2>a security risk on the first on the first Farmware version,

254
00:12:20.799 --> 00:12:22.480
<v Speaker 2>you don't even want to plug it anymore. I have

255
00:12:22.519 --> 00:12:24.960
<v Speaker 2>the version two, their version three pro, the version four,

256
00:12:25.799 --> 00:12:28.159
<v Speaker 2>and then they went to some like o G camera.

257
00:12:28.240 --> 00:12:31.480
<v Speaker 2>They haven't really gone beyond the you know. Then they

258
00:12:31.600 --> 00:12:33.720
<v Speaker 2>kind of added some different colors, and they added a doorbell,

259
00:12:33.799 --> 00:12:38.240
<v Speaker 2>doorbell pro, some PTZ cameras, you know, a couple of those.

260
00:12:38.320 --> 00:12:41.879
<v Speaker 1>And I've had a lot of fun with cameras because

261
00:12:42.120 --> 00:12:44.320
<v Speaker 1>some people will say, I don't want a camera in

262
00:12:44.320 --> 00:12:45.960
<v Speaker 1>my house. I don't want a camera to do this.

263
00:12:46.480 --> 00:12:49.600
<v Speaker 1>I don't want any kind you know of They say

264
00:12:49.679 --> 00:12:53.240
<v Speaker 1>they think privacy, But it's the peace of mind when

265
00:12:53.240 --> 00:12:56.919
<v Speaker 1>you have it. When it's whether it be in the backyard,

266
00:12:57.080 --> 00:12:59.480
<v Speaker 1>I'd be in the front on the doorbell over the garage,

267
00:12:59.799 --> 00:13:04.159
<v Speaker 1>in the garage, just because that split second, when you

268
00:13:04.200 --> 00:13:07.559
<v Speaker 1>get that notification if somebody breaks in to your home,

269
00:13:08.200 --> 00:13:12.639
<v Speaker 1>that gives you the opportunity to check it, contact authorities,

270
00:13:12.639 --> 00:13:15.720
<v Speaker 1>if they're not automatically contacted. Some of the services will

271
00:13:15.720 --> 00:13:18.120
<v Speaker 1>do that and have them come out and do what

272
00:13:18.159 --> 00:13:20.639
<v Speaker 1>they need to do, and about if you didn't have that,

273
00:13:20.960 --> 00:13:24.399
<v Speaker 1>then they have free rain and that makes it pretty nice.

274
00:13:24.960 --> 00:13:29.320
<v Speaker 1>I'll tell you what I like is my recent purchase

275
00:13:29.759 --> 00:13:31.679
<v Speaker 1>of the bird feeder. We talked about that last week

276
00:13:31.759 --> 00:13:35.360
<v Speaker 1>from a company called Evergreen, and I have been having

277
00:13:35.440 --> 00:13:38.039
<v Speaker 1>so much fun with this. Originally I had it on

278
00:13:38.159 --> 00:13:41.240
<v Speaker 1>top of a chimenea that's out in the backyard and

279
00:13:41.279 --> 00:13:43.679
<v Speaker 1>if birds would kind of find it, it was under the tree.

280
00:13:44.600 --> 00:13:46.919
<v Speaker 1>And when I decided it was a little windy that day,

281
00:13:46.960 --> 00:13:49.480
<v Speaker 1>I moved it to the top of the jacuzzie, so

282
00:13:49.519 --> 00:13:51.519
<v Speaker 1>we got a Jacuzie. It's got a Jacuzie cover run

283
00:13:51.559 --> 00:13:53.840
<v Speaker 1>and I put it there. It's been NonStop to the

284
00:13:53.840 --> 00:13:57.399
<v Speaker 1>point where birds are like they're eating a full bag

285
00:13:57.519 --> 00:14:01.120
<v Speaker 1>within three days, and it's been kind of cool. But

286
00:14:01.159 --> 00:14:04.480
<v Speaker 1>the quality of the camera has been great and I

287
00:14:04.480 --> 00:14:06.799
<v Speaker 1>don't pay an extra I don't pay the AI fee

288
00:14:06.840 --> 00:14:09.639
<v Speaker 1>for it, which I may just do. But the AI

289
00:14:10.039 --> 00:14:12.080
<v Speaker 1>feature will tell you what kind of bird it is,

290
00:14:12.799 --> 00:14:16.200
<v Speaker 1>how often that bird visits. It can actually identify that bird,

291
00:14:16.320 --> 00:14:19.360
<v Speaker 1>even give the bird a name, but I can see, Okay,

292
00:14:19.519 --> 00:14:22.000
<v Speaker 1>that's that bird that keeps coming by. I can actually

293
00:14:22.080 --> 00:14:24.440
<v Speaker 1>see it. And it's been a lot of fun to

294
00:14:24.480 --> 00:14:27.879
<v Speaker 1>capture that. On the segment that's available on our website

295
00:14:27.960 --> 00:14:30.919
<v Speaker 1>right now, I actually include it. So we did the

296
00:14:30.919 --> 00:14:33.879
<v Speaker 1>Fox eleven segment, but we didn't have footage. I have

297
00:14:34.000 --> 00:14:37.480
<v Speaker 1>put that footage into the segment so you could see it. Actually,

298
00:14:37.519 --> 00:14:41.080
<v Speaker 1>it's actually really cool. So again, it's totally worth the

299
00:14:41.200 --> 00:14:43.440
<v Speaker 1>ninety nine bucks if you want to pay the AI.

300
00:14:43.519 --> 00:14:46.080
<v Speaker 1>I think it's nine dollars a month for the service,

301
00:14:46.200 --> 00:14:48.320
<v Speaker 1>but I don't have to. I just got the app.

302
00:14:48.480 --> 00:14:51.480
<v Speaker 1>It's connected to my home network and I get a

303
00:14:51.519 --> 00:14:54.600
<v Speaker 1>notification on my phone or on the app, and it

304
00:14:54.639 --> 00:14:56.440
<v Speaker 1>will just tell me, yeah, there's a bird there, and

305
00:14:56.440 --> 00:14:59.200
<v Speaker 1>I can go look at it and watch them and yeah,

306
00:14:59.240 --> 00:14:59.960
<v Speaker 1>it's a lot of fun.

307
00:15:00.039 --> 00:15:02.879
<v Speaker 2>I know. I know some people like to live stream theirs.

308
00:15:03.080 --> 00:15:05.639
<v Speaker 1>You haven't thought about that. I guess that would be cool, right.

309
00:15:06.080 --> 00:15:07.559
<v Speaker 1>You get a lot of people that pop in and

310
00:15:07.559 --> 00:15:10.279
<v Speaker 1>see it, go, there's that bird. It was cute because

311
00:15:10.360 --> 00:15:15.559
<v Speaker 1>quails are they're really quails are like they've got an attitude.

312
00:15:15.600 --> 00:15:19.519
<v Speaker 1>Because I hadn't filled the food, I was here at

313
00:15:19.519 --> 00:15:24.000
<v Speaker 1>the radio station, and they were upset. They were actually

314
00:15:24.600 --> 00:15:28.559
<v Speaker 1>trying to break the plexiglass that is on the front

315
00:15:28.559 --> 00:15:30.639
<v Speaker 1>of the camera so they could get to some food

316
00:15:30.679 --> 00:15:32.919
<v Speaker 1>that maybe was behind there that hadn't come out yet.

317
00:15:33.559 --> 00:15:35.759
<v Speaker 1>And I just thought that was pretty funny that you've

318
00:15:35.759 --> 00:15:38.399
<v Speaker 1>seen the little attitudes and the birds because they're hungry.

319
00:15:38.919 --> 00:15:40.720
<v Speaker 1>So yeah, if you want to find that check out,

320
00:15:40.919 --> 00:15:43.159
<v Speaker 1>you'll find the link to Evergreen. And I got this

321
00:15:43.200 --> 00:15:45.960
<v Speaker 1>one at Costco and again it was like ninety nine

322
00:15:46.000 --> 00:15:48.519
<v Speaker 1>dollars on sale and it's a lot of fun. But

323
00:15:48.720 --> 00:15:51.279
<v Speaker 1>having a good time with it the only downside to it.

324
00:15:51.960 --> 00:15:54.080
<v Speaker 1>And I'm gonna have to build some kind of a

325
00:15:54.120 --> 00:15:57.519
<v Speaker 1>platform that is away because the jacuzzi is kind of

326
00:15:57.559 --> 00:16:00.799
<v Speaker 1>low to the ground. It's got a wide area. They're

327
00:16:00.919 --> 00:16:04.639
<v Speaker 1>very messy, the birds. But of course, one night, my

328
00:16:04.759 --> 00:16:07.120
<v Speaker 1>camera at three in the morning caught a mouse, a

329
00:16:07.320 --> 00:16:10.559
<v Speaker 1>little you know, little field mouse that was also trying

330
00:16:10.600 --> 00:16:12.840
<v Speaker 1>to eat there. And so when you see those you

331
00:16:12.919 --> 00:16:15.360
<v Speaker 1>suddenly go, I don't want to do this anymore. I

332
00:16:15.360 --> 00:16:17.240
<v Speaker 1>don't want to I don't want it to attract mice

333
00:16:17.320 --> 00:16:20.080
<v Speaker 1>and rats. It's going to But if you put it

334
00:16:20.120 --> 00:16:21.919
<v Speaker 1>into an area where you don't if you have squirrels

335
00:16:21.960 --> 00:16:24.279
<v Speaker 1>that could be a problem. Have this five seven nine rule.

336
00:16:24.679 --> 00:16:27.799
<v Speaker 1>I would say, yeah, do that all right, Uh go

337
00:16:27.840 --> 00:16:29.639
<v Speaker 1>and camp it. I know you're gonna be doing that soon.

338
00:16:30.399 --> 00:16:33.559
<v Speaker 1>You should be something a little while ago regarding battery power,

339
00:16:33.600 --> 00:16:36.200
<v Speaker 1>which kind of spun my head a little because it's

340
00:16:36.240 --> 00:16:38.840
<v Speaker 1>a new Is this a new system?

341
00:16:39.120 --> 00:16:41.039
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? I gotta grab it once second, all.

342
00:16:40.799 --> 00:16:43.960
<v Speaker 1>Right, So it's it's something like brand new. He showed me.

343
00:16:44.000 --> 00:16:46.960
<v Speaker 1>I said, what the heck is that? It's a what

344
00:16:47.320 --> 00:16:48.240
<v Speaker 1>kind of battery is this?

345
00:16:49.039 --> 00:16:51.559
<v Speaker 2>So it's a twelbo battery. It's like you would find

346
00:16:51.639 --> 00:16:54.799
<v Speaker 2>in your car or a camper. It's just a new

347
00:16:54.919 --> 00:16:58.159
<v Speaker 2>chemical format, right. So you have lead acid batteries, which

348
00:16:58.200 --> 00:17:00.320
<v Speaker 2>is your lead acid plates and the chemical and it

349
00:17:00.399 --> 00:17:04.920
<v Speaker 2>generates the reaction. And then you have lithium ion or

350
00:17:04.960 --> 00:17:09.160
<v Speaker 2>a MG batteries. So this is a lithium iron phosphate battery.

351
00:17:09.279 --> 00:17:13.960
<v Speaker 2>So life PO four like O four plus, it's twelve

352
00:17:13.960 --> 00:17:16.720
<v Speaker 2>point eight folds, but it's your lot.

353
00:17:16.839 --> 00:17:17.519
<v Speaker 1>It gets.

354
00:17:17.559 --> 00:17:21.960
<v Speaker 2>It's just a better medical, better chemical structure for drawing,

355
00:17:22.200 --> 00:17:29.640
<v Speaker 2>and better life expand, better charge cycles, better amp hours, better,

356
00:17:29.720 --> 00:17:34.240
<v Speaker 2>you know, just overall better, just better, better, better, better, better.

357
00:17:34.079 --> 00:17:38.119
<v Speaker 1>Light, light, lighter. That looks pretty heavy.

358
00:17:38.799 --> 00:17:41.599
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean it's still it's not light, but it's

359
00:17:41.680 --> 00:17:45.799
<v Speaker 2>lighter than a lead acid battery of this size. And

360
00:17:46.400 --> 00:17:51.279
<v Speaker 2>but a lot of people, you know, I like to

361
00:17:51.319 --> 00:17:53.519
<v Speaker 2>research stuff that I buy. I won't glad will go

362
00:17:53.559 --> 00:17:56.119
<v Speaker 2>down every rabbit hole finding every little detail about things

363
00:17:56.160 --> 00:17:58.680
<v Speaker 2>when I buy it. Do you read I do? I

364
00:17:58.759 --> 00:18:04.319
<v Speaker 2>read reviews. I read other yeah, reviews, web articles, et cetera.

365
00:18:05.599 --> 00:18:08.400
<v Speaker 2>And what a lot of people forget is if you

366
00:18:08.440 --> 00:18:12.839
<v Speaker 2>have existing solar on your camper. So I have one

367
00:18:12.880 --> 00:18:15.440
<v Speaker 2>hundred and ninety watt solar panel on the camper, I've

368
00:18:15.440 --> 00:18:17.880
<v Speaker 2>got an additional two hundred watt panel here behind me.

369
00:18:17.920 --> 00:18:20.599
<v Speaker 2>Then I'm gonna put on and put them put them

370
00:18:20.640 --> 00:18:23.680
<v Speaker 2>in in in in cere in in parallel so that

371
00:18:23.759 --> 00:18:27.920
<v Speaker 2>I can get the extra the extra wattage at the

372
00:18:27.920 --> 00:18:32.359
<v Speaker 2>same voltage. A lot of people forget when you move

373
00:18:33.119 --> 00:18:37.400
<v Speaker 2>battery chemical formats, so from lead acid to amg or

374
00:18:37.440 --> 00:18:42.559
<v Speaker 2>to lithium iron phosphate, they require different voltage properties when

375
00:18:42.599 --> 00:18:48.759
<v Speaker 2>they charge, Oh, they require different components. Whether it's smart charging,

376
00:18:48.839 --> 00:18:52.160
<v Speaker 2>whether it's deep cycle charging, whether it's there's just there's

377
00:18:52.160 --> 00:18:54.319
<v Speaker 2>a lot of factors that go into it. So if

378
00:18:54.359 --> 00:18:58.759
<v Speaker 2>you have a AMG battery in your camper and you're great,

379
00:18:58.759 --> 00:19:00.759
<v Speaker 2>I'm gonna buy a lithium iron foss three battery. Gonn

380
00:19:00.759 --> 00:19:04.359
<v Speaker 2>toss it in. It's not gonna destroy the battery, it's

381
00:19:04.400 --> 00:19:07.720
<v Speaker 2>just not gonna charge it properly. Because AMG batteries charged

382
00:19:07.799 --> 00:19:11.799
<v Speaker 2>at a different nominal voltage then with the motorn fosphate batteries,

383
00:19:11.799 --> 00:19:16.759
<v Speaker 2>they require different care when they're charging. So I have

384
00:19:16.799 --> 00:19:20.799
<v Speaker 2>to I had to upgrade my solar controller, so I

385
00:19:20.799 --> 00:19:22.799
<v Speaker 2>have I have the solar controller, so when the solar

386
00:19:22.839 --> 00:19:25.960
<v Speaker 2>panels come in, it goes to a solar controller, takes

387
00:19:26.000 --> 00:19:28.200
<v Speaker 2>in the I think, I think the think like twenty

388
00:19:28.279 --> 00:19:30.440
<v Speaker 2>three volts that brites on, like twenty three volts coming

389
00:19:30.440 --> 00:19:32.920
<v Speaker 2>out of the out of the solar panel at full bright.

390
00:19:34.240 --> 00:19:37.599
<v Speaker 2>Well that's got to get controlled and reduced to the

391
00:19:37.680 --> 00:19:39.720
<v Speaker 2>voltage needed to charge the battery. So that goes to

392
00:19:39.759 --> 00:19:43.240
<v Speaker 2>the solar controller. So that handles the d C to

393
00:19:43.359 --> 00:19:45.640
<v Speaker 2>d C part of it, from the solar panel to

394
00:19:45.680 --> 00:19:49.880
<v Speaker 2>the battery. Well, then you also have to get the

395
00:19:49.920 --> 00:19:52.279
<v Speaker 2>A C to d C charging part of it. So

396
00:19:52.279 --> 00:19:55.880
<v Speaker 2>when you're plugged into shore power, your AC voltage is

397
00:19:55.880 --> 00:20:01.640
<v Speaker 2>coming in at one. Well, yeah, and then it's got

398
00:20:01.640 --> 00:20:05.640
<v Speaker 2>to get reduced to whatever voltage you need for your soul,

399
00:20:05.880 --> 00:20:09.200
<v Speaker 2>so for your battery. So I had to I have

400
00:20:09.319 --> 00:20:11.839
<v Speaker 2>to buy. I'm waiting for it to come in a

401
00:20:12.119 --> 00:20:14.720
<v Speaker 2>new and basically a new entire breaker box for my

402
00:20:14.799 --> 00:20:17.720
<v Speaker 2>camper that will allow it to be to have the

403
00:20:17.759 --> 00:20:23.240
<v Speaker 2>proper circuitry in there to manage the lithiumnor fossil batteries.

404
00:20:24.160 --> 00:20:26.039
<v Speaker 2>So I've got a little bit of work to upgrade.

405
00:20:26.720 --> 00:20:29.319
<v Speaker 2>We took the camper out this a couple of weekends ago,

406
00:20:29.480 --> 00:20:31.759
<v Speaker 2>and I kept the AMG set up in there because

407
00:20:32.400 --> 00:20:34.200
<v Speaker 2>I was like, oh, I needed this extra piece. It

408
00:20:34.240 --> 00:20:36.079
<v Speaker 2>didn't have time to get it. It didn't come in time.

409
00:20:36.680 --> 00:20:39.400
<v Speaker 2>So now I'm waiting. But all I'm told i'll be

410
00:20:39.440 --> 00:20:42.240
<v Speaker 2>able to have I have one hundred amp hour battery.

411
00:20:43.079 --> 00:20:46.640
<v Speaker 2>Currently I'm going to get another one. You know. It's

412
00:20:46.680 --> 00:20:47.960
<v Speaker 2>one of those things where you're like, oh, this is

413
00:20:48.000 --> 00:20:51.160
<v Speaker 2>a good deal. It was right before it was like

414
00:20:52.200 --> 00:20:55.160
<v Speaker 2>right before the tariffs we're going to kick in, and

415
00:20:55.240 --> 00:20:57.039
<v Speaker 2>I was like, oh, it's great. It's it's like just

416
00:20:57.160 --> 00:20:59.799
<v Speaker 2>under four hundred bucks for this hundred one hundred damp

417
00:20:59.839 --> 00:21:03.799
<v Speaker 2>hour battery. I bought it right, well, like two days ago,

418
00:21:03.839 --> 00:21:06.039
<v Speaker 2>I get an email saying here's our new two hundred

419
00:21:06.079 --> 00:21:07.920
<v Speaker 2>damp battery for five sixty nine.

420
00:21:07.960 --> 00:21:12.279
<v Speaker 1>And I'm like, it's like always happens. Yeah, But what

421
00:21:12.319 --> 00:21:12.880
<v Speaker 1>I'm going to.

422
00:21:12.839 --> 00:21:15.559
<v Speaker 2>Do is I will once I get the system in place,

423
00:21:16.000 --> 00:21:18.640
<v Speaker 2>I will just get another one hundred damp hower battery,

424
00:21:18.680 --> 00:21:23.799
<v Speaker 2>put them in parallel, get do double my storage, and

425
00:21:23.839 --> 00:21:25.880
<v Speaker 2>then just ties in perfectly with the solar panel and

426
00:21:25.920 --> 00:21:26.680
<v Speaker 2>the power and stuff.

427
00:21:26.720 --> 00:21:31.000
<v Speaker 1>So say say you go camping Sean and you park,

428
00:21:31.200 --> 00:21:34.039
<v Speaker 1>you find the you know parking spot, you don't plug

429
00:21:34.079 --> 00:21:37.680
<v Speaker 1>in somewhere, You've got battery, You've got the solar panels,

430
00:21:38.200 --> 00:21:41.440
<v Speaker 1>and you want to watch maybe maybe a movie. It's

431
00:21:41.519 --> 00:21:45.359
<v Speaker 1>late at night, listen to music. Uh do you have

432
00:21:45.480 --> 00:21:48.240
<v Speaker 1>enough to run all night on something like this?

433
00:21:48.359 --> 00:21:52.119
<v Speaker 2>Yeah? So yeah, So using the AMG battery that it

434
00:21:52.240 --> 00:21:54.880
<v Speaker 2>currently happened, we can charge all of our devices overnight

435
00:21:55.119 --> 00:21:58.519
<v Speaker 2>using just the DC. There is an inverter it built there.

436
00:21:58.599 --> 00:22:00.839
<v Speaker 2>I do have an inverter assigned way, so it will

437
00:22:00.839 --> 00:22:05.440
<v Speaker 2>take the DC voltage and and basically transform it up

438
00:22:05.920 --> 00:22:09.839
<v Speaker 2>to one hundred and twenty four AC. We don't need it, right,

439
00:22:09.920 --> 00:22:12.839
<v Speaker 2>but you know it would if just watching the you know,

440
00:22:12.960 --> 00:22:16.240
<v Speaker 2>just watching the TV or charging our devices, we'll get

441
00:22:16.880 --> 00:22:19.480
<v Speaker 2>two days out of the battery with pretty with the

442
00:22:19.519 --> 00:22:22.799
<v Speaker 2>solo with A with a medium coverage solar panel. You know,

443
00:22:23.319 --> 00:22:25.160
<v Speaker 2>you know, most times when you go camping, you're hoping

444
00:22:25.240 --> 00:22:28.599
<v Speaker 2>to be parked in shades. You you're keep it cool, right,

445
00:22:28.640 --> 00:22:31.519
<v Speaker 2>so you're hoping that when you're traveling or when the

446
00:22:32.039 --> 00:22:34.799
<v Speaker 2>unit is sitting. Yeah, when you're I guess that when

447
00:22:34.799 --> 00:22:37.079
<v Speaker 2>you're traveling or when you're driving, it'll be charging because

448
00:22:37.079 --> 00:22:39.440
<v Speaker 2>you're mostly direct sull light when you're driving. But when

449
00:22:39.440 --> 00:22:41.680
<v Speaker 2>you're camping, like where we go camping, it's usually you're

450
00:22:41.920 --> 00:22:45.400
<v Speaker 2>getting very broken sunlight. It'll still get decent voltage, but

451
00:22:45.440 --> 00:22:47.119
<v Speaker 2>it's not going to keep you topped off if you're

452
00:22:47.119 --> 00:22:49.559
<v Speaker 2>still using it. So we we supplement with a with

453
00:22:49.599 --> 00:22:50.759
<v Speaker 2>A with a gas generator.

454
00:22:51.440 --> 00:22:53.319
<v Speaker 1>All right, So I'm wondering, Uh, you're gonna go on

455
00:22:53.359 --> 00:22:56.119
<v Speaker 1>this camping trip. Have you done it yet? Because a

456
00:22:56.160 --> 00:22:59.400
<v Speaker 1>lot of campers that I see that take the I

457
00:22:59.599 --> 00:23:03.000
<v Speaker 1>ten through Tucson and the I nineteenth through Green Valley,

458
00:23:03.039 --> 00:23:05.680
<v Speaker 1>I'm seeing a lot of these campers and r vs

459
00:23:06.440 --> 00:23:08.680
<v Speaker 1>with the INSTA three sixty on top of it, have

460
00:23:08.799 --> 00:23:11.440
<v Speaker 1>you been contemplating maybe doing something like that. I know,

461
00:23:11.720 --> 00:23:13.960
<v Speaker 1>I believe GoPro has just come out with their own

462
00:23:14.880 --> 00:23:17.480
<v Speaker 1>like three hundred and sixty three camera system as well,

463
00:23:17.799 --> 00:23:19.160
<v Speaker 1>But have you been thinking about.

464
00:23:19.000 --> 00:23:21.240
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, GoPro has their Max camera.

465
00:23:21.519 --> 00:23:22.240
<v Speaker 1>Yes, that's it.

466
00:23:22.960 --> 00:23:26.759
<v Speaker 2>I don't I'm not a content creator.

467
00:23:27.400 --> 00:23:27.799
<v Speaker 1>Mm hmm.

468
00:23:28.599 --> 00:23:31.119
<v Speaker 2>I mean I like doing time lapses, right, I like

469
00:23:31.200 --> 00:23:36.359
<v Speaker 2>doing the star photography, the long exposures and stuff. I

470
00:23:36.400 --> 00:23:42.799
<v Speaker 2>have no interest in posting the time to edit that stuff.

471
00:23:42.839 --> 00:23:45.279
<v Speaker 2>I mean, well, it's a cool concept, and I get it,

472
00:23:45.359 --> 00:23:48.359
<v Speaker 2>like everybody's trying to be an influencer on everything they

473
00:23:48.359 --> 00:23:50.279
<v Speaker 2>need and they want to report every little dy bitty

474
00:23:50.279 --> 00:23:54.400
<v Speaker 2>p right right, I'm over here shooting polaroids and thirty

475
00:23:54.400 --> 00:23:58.519
<v Speaker 2>five millimeter film and that's what I want to do. Like,

476
00:23:58.559 --> 00:24:02.039
<v Speaker 2>that's the stuff that I'm loving doing because I'll during

477
00:24:02.079 --> 00:24:03.599
<v Speaker 2>our break, I'll go grab the poll rides. It took

478
00:24:03.599 --> 00:24:04.759
<v Speaker 2>them with a camp as best we get.

479
00:24:04.799 --> 00:24:06.839
<v Speaker 1>Well, speaking of that, we do have to take a break.

480
00:24:06.880 --> 00:24:09.160
<v Speaker 1>We come back. We have some listener questions. We got

481
00:24:09.160 --> 00:24:11.319
<v Speaker 1>more news too, and something brand new that I would

482
00:24:11.319 --> 00:24:13.440
<v Speaker 1>love to get my hands on when we come back.

483
00:24:13.480 --> 00:24:14.319
<v Speaker 1>I'm Andy Taylor.

484
00:24:14.920 --> 00:24:16.480
<v Speaker 2>I'm trying toward find us on the web at tech

485
00:24:16.480 --> 00:24:17.920
<v Speaker 2>talk radio dot com. We'll talk to you.

486
00:24:17.960 --> 00:24:21.680
<v Speaker 1>About and now back to tech talk radio. So we

487
00:24:21.720 --> 00:24:25.359
<v Speaker 1>were talking about before the break about the inset three sixty,

488
00:24:25.480 --> 00:24:29.000
<v Speaker 1>which is a device that you could put on is

489
00:24:29.039 --> 00:24:32.200
<v Speaker 1>you might see motorcycle helmets with them, or motorcyclists or

490
00:24:32.640 --> 00:24:36.000
<v Speaker 1>RV's cars and they put them on top and it

491
00:24:36.039 --> 00:24:40.400
<v Speaker 1>gives a three hundred and sixty view of what it captures. Now,

492
00:24:41.079 --> 00:24:44.359
<v Speaker 1>on one hand, and Sean, I don't know, we might

493
00:24:44.400 --> 00:24:46.559
<v Speaker 1>be a little different on this. I look at it

494
00:24:46.599 --> 00:24:49.480
<v Speaker 1>as a security measure. That's why we have dash cams,

495
00:24:49.640 --> 00:24:53.559
<v Speaker 1>and now we have dash cams at our rear facing apparently,

496
00:24:53.559 --> 00:24:55.440
<v Speaker 1>and I'm trying to get my hands on when Cobra's

497
00:24:55.480 --> 00:24:59.000
<v Speaker 1>got one that is three capturing from three different angles,

498
00:24:59.240 --> 00:25:03.039
<v Speaker 1>so it captures from both sides, front and back. So

499
00:25:03.079 --> 00:25:04.960
<v Speaker 1>that way, if you're driving and you get hit from

500
00:25:04.960 --> 00:25:08.519
<v Speaker 1>the side, there's there's video of that, and that could

501
00:25:08.559 --> 00:25:11.079
<v Speaker 1>be good in an insurance situation or something like that.

502
00:25:11.400 --> 00:25:14.559
<v Speaker 1>Into three sixties. Yeah, like you said, a lot of

503
00:25:14.599 --> 00:25:17.319
<v Speaker 1>the influencers are posting the videos up there, but it

504
00:25:17.359 --> 00:25:19.759
<v Speaker 1>could also be a security thing, and that's one of

505
00:25:19.759 --> 00:25:23.440
<v Speaker 1>the things they've added to the brand new DGI Mavic

506
00:25:23.480 --> 00:25:25.599
<v Speaker 1>Pro four. Yeah.

507
00:25:25.640 --> 00:25:27.359
<v Speaker 2>I was just looking at the specs.

508
00:25:27.599 --> 00:25:31.240
<v Speaker 1>It has three cameras utilizing that same kind of three

509
00:25:31.319 --> 00:25:34.920
<v Speaker 1>hundred and sixty degree rotating gimbal for footage that can

510
00:25:35.000 --> 00:25:37.920
<v Speaker 1>tilt roll and do what they they say is true

511
00:25:38.000 --> 00:25:44.039
<v Speaker 1>vertical filming. So if your drone is going up or down,

512
00:25:44.160 --> 00:25:47.400
<v Speaker 1>I've seen I saw footage once of a drone hitting

513
00:25:47.480 --> 00:25:51.359
<v Speaker 1>it like a smoke stack, going down the smoke stack,

514
00:25:51.960 --> 00:25:54.160
<v Speaker 1>which was pretty darn amazing. Yeah.

515
00:25:54.240 --> 00:25:56.480
<v Speaker 2>I mean you get the FPV drones. The guys apply

516
00:25:56.599 --> 00:25:57.400
<v Speaker 2>those are nuts.

517
00:25:57.640 --> 00:25:58.400
<v Speaker 1>Yeah yeah.

518
00:25:59.079 --> 00:26:05.119
<v Speaker 2>But yeah, So the the Mavic four Pro, it's on sale,

519
00:26:06.000 --> 00:26:09.359
<v Speaker 2>but not technically in the US.

520
00:26:09.599 --> 00:26:10.279
<v Speaker 1>There's only I.

521
00:26:10.200 --> 00:26:15.160
<v Speaker 3>Think two retailers have it. BH Photos is one of them,

522
00:26:15.200 --> 00:26:19.720
<v Speaker 3>ye at AABA and B and H. Yeah, and it's

523
00:26:19.920 --> 00:26:21.079
<v Speaker 3>subject to the thirty.

524
00:26:20.880 --> 00:26:27.480
<v Speaker 2>Percent tariff, so it's pricey. May thirteenth was the global launch,

525
00:26:27.640 --> 00:26:32.079
<v Speaker 2>so a couple days ago. Right, They have no tactical

526
00:26:32.240 --> 00:26:33.640
<v Speaker 2>US market release, nop.

527
00:26:34.000 --> 00:26:37.079
<v Speaker 1>They didn't even send the Mavic Pro for to any

528
00:26:37.200 --> 00:26:41.319
<v Speaker 1>US reviewers. Yeah, nobody. Yeah.

529
00:26:41.480 --> 00:26:44.480
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, So the Mavic four Pro comes with the new

530
00:26:45.279 --> 00:26:48.680
<v Speaker 2>one hundred megapixel Hostile Blod camera.

531
00:26:48.920 --> 00:26:52.559
<v Speaker 1>Uscile Blood Really wow, it's pretty amazing.

532
00:26:52.759 --> 00:26:55.640
<v Speaker 2>Paired with a forty eight megapixel telephoto with a seventy

533
00:26:55.640 --> 00:26:59.119
<v Speaker 2>millimeter focal length and a fifty megapixel long telephoto with

534
00:26:59.200 --> 00:27:01.319
<v Speaker 2>a focal length of one hundred and sixty eight milimeter.

535
00:27:01.599 --> 00:27:04.599
<v Speaker 2>Oh man, so you've got quite the range there. There's

536
00:27:04.640 --> 00:27:07.119
<v Speaker 2>also what and he was talking about the Infinity gible

537
00:27:07.200 --> 00:27:10.240
<v Speaker 2>that gives three hundred and sixty degrees of rotation, allowing

538
00:27:10.240 --> 00:27:14.960
<v Speaker 2>for better vertical shots. Right, six K sixty frame per

539
00:27:15.039 --> 00:27:19.200
<v Speaker 2>second HDR wow on the main camera and four K

540
00:27:19.359 --> 00:27:21.880
<v Speaker 2>sixty fps on all three elements.

541
00:27:21.960 --> 00:27:24.279
<v Speaker 1>So I will tell you because I have the three,

542
00:27:24.400 --> 00:27:28.359
<v Speaker 1>the Mavic three Pro, and I really do love it.

543
00:27:28.480 --> 00:27:31.200
<v Speaker 1>I mean, the quality of the video is great. I

544
00:27:31.240 --> 00:27:34.880
<v Speaker 1>put it up in a thunderstorm, a lightning storm because

545
00:27:34.920 --> 00:27:37.799
<v Speaker 1>we get monsoon season here, and it captured it risky.

546
00:27:38.200 --> 00:27:40.519
<v Speaker 1>It probably was a little it was off of the distance,

547
00:27:40.559 --> 00:27:43.200
<v Speaker 1>but it captured some great video. Not that I'm saying

548
00:27:43.240 --> 00:27:46.200
<v Speaker 1>you should do that, but it captured some great video.

549
00:27:46.559 --> 00:27:48.720
<v Speaker 1>But the problem with this is again going to be cost.

550
00:27:49.400 --> 00:27:52.400
<v Speaker 1>I saw the pricing, like if you want the full setup,

551
00:27:52.640 --> 00:27:56.960
<v Speaker 1>it's gonna be somewhere around four grand all the way.

552
00:27:57.039 --> 00:27:59.519
<v Speaker 1>Like that, you want everything, the retailers have it up

553
00:27:59.559 --> 00:27:59.960
<v Speaker 1>for sale.

554
00:28:00.000 --> 00:28:04.519
<v Speaker 2>I'll see what BNH has it for. Basically, the camera

555
00:28:04.640 --> 00:28:08.359
<v Speaker 2>plus the controller with the screen twenty seven hundred. The

556
00:28:08.400 --> 00:28:13.960
<v Speaker 2>fly More combo which is the camera, the case, the controller,

557
00:28:14.079 --> 00:28:19.319
<v Speaker 2>two intelligent Flay batteries thirty five hundred. Right, the Creator

558
00:28:19.359 --> 00:28:27.599
<v Speaker 2>combo which looks like it's got internal storage, two batteries,

559
00:28:27.720 --> 00:28:31.559
<v Speaker 2>controller fast charging. That's for almost five grand.

560
00:28:31.839 --> 00:28:35.720
<v Speaker 1>Wow. Now the other thing about it, it's similar to

561
00:28:35.839 --> 00:28:40.319
<v Speaker 1>the three which gets what fifty almost fifty one minutes

562
00:28:40.920 --> 00:28:45.920
<v Speaker 1>of battery life, which is great. And again here's the thing.

563
00:28:45.960 --> 00:28:48.400
<v Speaker 1>If you if you go to Canada and you go

564
00:28:48.440 --> 00:28:51.200
<v Speaker 1>to Mexico because you want to buy it, and you're

565
00:28:51.200 --> 00:28:54.200
<v Speaker 1>able to get across with this and I don't even

566
00:28:54.240 --> 00:28:56.440
<v Speaker 1>know how do they do do they tear a few

567
00:28:56.519 --> 00:28:59.039
<v Speaker 1>when you're crossing. But they're saying that even if you

568
00:28:59.119 --> 00:29:03.440
<v Speaker 1>do DG, I won't honor its limited warranty if you

569
00:29:03.519 --> 00:29:03.799
<v Speaker 1>do that.

570
00:29:04.920 --> 00:29:08.359
<v Speaker 2>So, I mean, that's just the nature of the political

571
00:29:08.359 --> 00:29:11.440
<v Speaker 2>climate right now. That's just the way the world market

572
00:29:11.480 --> 00:29:11.839
<v Speaker 2>is right now.

573
00:29:12.000 --> 00:29:17.480
<v Speaker 1>Okay, So is there a drone that that could compete

574
00:29:17.480 --> 00:29:21.480
<v Speaker 1>with DJI and be just as good on the market,

575
00:29:21.480 --> 00:29:23.839
<v Speaker 1>that is in the US, made in the US. Yeah,

576
00:29:24.279 --> 00:29:28.880
<v Speaker 1>I saw something a couple of days ago and I thought, okay,

577
00:29:29.000 --> 00:29:32.319
<v Speaker 1>it was It was very clickbaity, you know, check out

578
00:29:32.319 --> 00:29:37.839
<v Speaker 1>this new drone from the US that rivals the DJI product.

579
00:29:38.160 --> 00:29:40.279
<v Speaker 1>And of course I didn't. I didn't click through. It

580
00:29:40.359 --> 00:29:43.559
<v Speaker 1>just looked okay, yeah. Sure. DJI has been known for

581
00:29:43.880 --> 00:29:46.200
<v Speaker 1>being one of the best. I'll tell you a funny story.

582
00:29:46.240 --> 00:29:49.119
<v Speaker 1>The other day, my neighbor asked me to move my

583
00:29:49.319 --> 00:29:53.359
<v Speaker 1>car because she's putting her house on the market, and

584
00:29:54.160 --> 00:29:55.640
<v Speaker 1>she thought, you know, the guy's going to come out

585
00:29:55.640 --> 00:29:57.519
<v Speaker 1>and photograph it. Didn't want to have the car in

586
00:29:57.559 --> 00:30:00.319
<v Speaker 1>the shot. So I said, yeah, no, no problem all.

587
00:30:00.759 --> 00:30:03.240
<v Speaker 1>So then I came here to work and then uh,

588
00:30:04.160 --> 00:30:05.880
<v Speaker 1>I reached out to Gloria and I said, hey, did

589
00:30:05.880 --> 00:30:07.160
<v Speaker 1>that guy show up? And he goes, yeah, he's out

590
00:30:07.160 --> 00:30:09.599
<v Speaker 1>there right now, and and I said, don't tell me

591
00:30:09.599 --> 00:30:12.160
<v Speaker 1>he's doing a drone. She goes, yeah, he's got a drone.

592
00:30:12.400 --> 00:30:14.599
<v Speaker 1>So she I said, go out there take pictures, so

593
00:30:14.640 --> 00:30:16.799
<v Speaker 1>she did. He had a little hell he had a

594
00:30:16.799 --> 00:30:19.759
<v Speaker 1>little like landing pad that he put in the street,

595
00:30:19.880 --> 00:30:22.400
<v Speaker 1>which I thought was cool. He must have his part

596
00:30:22.440 --> 00:30:24.400
<v Speaker 1>one O seven, which you know you have to do

597
00:30:24.440 --> 00:30:27.079
<v Speaker 1>if he's charging for it. But yeah, he put his

598
00:30:27.079 --> 00:30:29.240
<v Speaker 1>his It was a Maverick three, put it in the

599
00:30:29.279 --> 00:30:31.799
<v Speaker 1>air and got some great shots. From what I understand

600
00:30:31.880 --> 00:30:33.319
<v Speaker 1>a quick a quick Google food.

601
00:30:33.440 --> 00:30:35.880
<v Speaker 2>It looks like there are some US companies that have

602
00:30:37.240 --> 00:30:41.039
<v Speaker 2>skidio is one, I think that's right. One brink drones.

603
00:30:41.079 --> 00:30:45.759
<v Speaker 2>A lot of these are for like firefighting, agricultural agricultural stuff,

604
00:30:45.799 --> 00:30:52.359
<v Speaker 2>so really not much for outside of like I mean,

605
00:30:52.519 --> 00:30:53.960
<v Speaker 2>what DGI offers.

606
00:30:53.960 --> 00:30:57.160
<v Speaker 1>Right, I have seen one that Customs of Border Protection

607
00:30:57.319 --> 00:31:01.400
<v Speaker 1>use that was huge. It wasn't DJI enormous. It was

608
00:31:01.920 --> 00:31:05.480
<v Speaker 1>seriously it was about the size of a cabin of

609
00:31:05.680 --> 00:31:09.279
<v Speaker 1>a vehicle, you know, from front to back. And it

610
00:31:09.400 --> 00:31:12.759
<v Speaker 1>had these weird slots on the top of them. And

611
00:31:12.880 --> 00:31:14.839
<v Speaker 1>when I asked the agent, I said, what is that for?

612
00:31:15.200 --> 00:31:19.000
<v Speaker 1>Is it batteries? Just pop keep popping the batteries in

613
00:31:19.519 --> 00:31:22.079
<v Speaker 1>so they can have They had probably a spot for

614
00:31:22.119 --> 00:31:25.200
<v Speaker 1>about fifteen batteries that they could put in there and

615
00:31:25.240 --> 00:31:26.240
<v Speaker 1>get longer flight time.

616
00:31:26.319 --> 00:31:28.599
<v Speaker 2>A lot of space to cover along the border.

617
00:31:28.799 --> 00:31:31.599
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, they were huge, so anyway, if you only get

618
00:31:31.599 --> 00:31:34.440
<v Speaker 1>more info about it, you go to Dji's website and

619
00:31:34.480 --> 00:31:34.960
<v Speaker 1>find out.

620
00:31:34.960 --> 00:31:38.039
<v Speaker 2>Now it doesn't mean not on their website.

621
00:31:38.440 --> 00:31:40.839
<v Speaker 1>It's not even on their website yet, you can't.

622
00:31:41.039 --> 00:31:43.400
<v Speaker 2>It's not even on their website right now, I cannot.

623
00:31:43.440 --> 00:31:45.799
<v Speaker 2>I was looking for it because you mentioned it was open.

624
00:31:46.119 --> 00:31:50.519
<v Speaker 2>Right there's PC mag has an article. I mean, but

625
00:31:50.559 --> 00:31:53.119
<v Speaker 2>there's it is not on their website.

626
00:31:53.359 --> 00:31:57.759
<v Speaker 1>And they might be blocked because because of location.

627
00:31:58.279 --> 00:32:02.279
<v Speaker 2>They're like, if you google it, you can get to

628
00:32:04.200 --> 00:32:07.319
<v Speaker 2>uh a website. You know, you get to the website

629
00:32:07.319 --> 00:32:08.880
<v Speaker 2>the links and it came to a four or four

630
00:32:08.920 --> 00:32:13.920
<v Speaker 2>page So I don't don't see it on their website

631
00:32:13.920 --> 00:32:14.200
<v Speaker 2>at all.

632
00:32:14.279 --> 00:32:17.480
<v Speaker 1>Right now, I would I would want to test a VPN,

633
00:32:18.240 --> 00:32:22.079
<v Speaker 1>do a VPN into Canada and then see if it

634
00:32:22.119 --> 00:32:25.240
<v Speaker 1>comes up. I kind of wonder if that would be right.

635
00:32:25.279 --> 00:32:27.680
<v Speaker 2>Now, here's a Google Mavic four specs. I go to

636
00:32:27.720 --> 00:32:28.880
<v Speaker 2>it four a four page.

637
00:32:28.839 --> 00:32:32.119
<v Speaker 1>Fil right unless people are crashing it because they want

638
00:32:32.160 --> 00:32:36.119
<v Speaker 1>to they want to order it, maybe thats all right.

639
00:32:36.119 --> 00:32:39.279
<v Speaker 1>We got a listener question in from Rick in Celwite.

640
00:32:39.319 --> 00:32:40.960
<v Speaker 1>I thought we'd tried go go ahead and cover one

641
00:32:41.000 --> 00:32:44.920
<v Speaker 1>of these. It says, Hey, all, well, Justin and Matt

642
00:32:45.039 --> 00:32:48.799
<v Speaker 1>and slicker out. But hey, y'all love listening to your show,

643
00:32:48.839 --> 00:32:51.079
<v Speaker 1>and I've been thinking I really want to learn more

644
00:32:51.079 --> 00:32:54.119
<v Speaker 1>about the basics of technology. So I told my friend

645
00:32:54.119 --> 00:32:57.640
<v Speaker 1>about this and he said, just watch YouTube videos. Wouldn't

646
00:32:57.640 --> 00:33:00.920
<v Speaker 1>it be better to take a class? Your thoughts from

647
00:33:01.039 --> 00:33:01.920
<v Speaker 1>Rick and Celidia.

648
00:33:02.759 --> 00:33:04.880
<v Speaker 2>You need to narrow the scope a little.

649
00:33:05.960 --> 00:33:07.759
<v Speaker 1>When you when you say technology, a.

650
00:33:07.720 --> 00:33:11.799
<v Speaker 2>Lot of technology up there. What you need to kind

651
00:33:11.839 --> 00:33:15.720
<v Speaker 2>of pick a focus? What niche part of technology? Do

652
00:33:15.759 --> 00:33:20.599
<v Speaker 2>you want to get to your cameras, drunes, computers, cars, cameras,

653
00:33:20.680 --> 00:33:24.599
<v Speaker 2>that's true, videos, solar panels, batteries, wow.

654
00:33:25.680 --> 00:33:28.559
<v Speaker 1>Putting together? Does he maybe want to put them together?

655
00:33:29.359 --> 00:33:31.720
<v Speaker 2>Do you want to get into like technologly because there's

656
00:33:31.720 --> 00:33:34.279
<v Speaker 2>a ton of technology and like h VAC, right you

657
00:33:34.319 --> 00:33:37.039
<v Speaker 2>want to go program your furnace or you know, it's

658
00:33:37.079 --> 00:33:43.400
<v Speaker 2>like there's so technology is such a broad term. But

659
00:33:43.480 --> 00:33:48.559
<v Speaker 2>YouTube is not a bad place to start. No, extron Academy,

660
00:33:48.599 --> 00:33:50.680
<v Speaker 2>you dot me those tens of places too where you

661
00:33:50.680 --> 00:33:52.559
<v Speaker 2>can actually if you if if you're more of a

662
00:33:52.599 --> 00:33:55.400
<v Speaker 2>book learner, like you want to read articles and take

663
00:33:55.440 --> 00:33:57.519
<v Speaker 2>tests and stuff like that instead of just watching somebody

664
00:33:57.519 --> 00:34:02.039
<v Speaker 2>else explain it to you. You got me Academy code. Uh,

665
00:34:02.200 --> 00:34:04.160
<v Speaker 2>there's a couple of other websites if you know you too.

666
00:34:05.319 --> 00:34:06.880
<v Speaker 1>Do you remember? Do you remember what we had? Do

667
00:34:06.920 --> 00:34:07.799
<v Speaker 1>you remember what we had?

668
00:34:08.119 --> 00:34:08.480
<v Speaker 2>We had?

669
00:34:08.719 --> 00:34:11.360
<v Speaker 1>I mean, YouTube really wasn't around when I got started.

670
00:34:11.480 --> 00:34:12.840
<v Speaker 2>Encyclopedia Britannica.

671
00:34:13.199 --> 00:34:17.599
<v Speaker 1>No, the Dummies books. You know that you had bos

672
00:34:17.639 --> 00:34:22.199
<v Speaker 1>for Dummies, Windows for Dummies, it computers, computers for dummies.

673
00:34:23.480 --> 00:34:25.679
<v Speaker 1>I think did you ever see Fast Times of rich

674
00:34:25.719 --> 00:34:26.159
<v Speaker 1>One High?

675
00:34:27.159 --> 00:34:27.559
<v Speaker 2>Long time?

676
00:34:27.840 --> 00:34:29.960
<v Speaker 1>Okay, so here's the story. A lot of people don't

677
00:34:30.000 --> 00:34:32.639
<v Speaker 1>know this, but in the movie Fast Times of Richmond High,

678
00:34:32.679 --> 00:34:36.239
<v Speaker 1>you might remember the guy who worked in the movie

679
00:34:36.280 --> 00:34:38.559
<v Speaker 1>theater that liked Stacy and he was kind of a

680
00:34:38.599 --> 00:34:44.079
<v Speaker 1>nerdy character. He is the guy, Andy Rathbone, that wrote

681
00:34:44.400 --> 00:34:48.559
<v Speaker 1>The Dummies, a couple of the Dummies books. But Andy

682
00:34:49.000 --> 00:34:53.280
<v Speaker 1>was the inspiration for that character because he went to

683
00:34:53.360 --> 00:34:57.280
<v Speaker 1>that school and talked with the writer of that film,

684
00:34:57.320 --> 00:34:59.880
<v Speaker 1>the director of that film, and that's where he became

685
00:35:00.079 --> 00:35:04.559
<v Speaker 1>inspiration for Mark Rattner, that character. And I've always thought

686
00:35:04.559 --> 00:35:06.159
<v Speaker 1>that was kind of funny. That's based on the guy.

687
00:35:06.280 --> 00:35:09.000
<v Speaker 1>That's like something you'd read on the IMDb trivia. Yeah,

688
00:35:10.119 --> 00:35:12.039
<v Speaker 1>I've always known it. We've had Andy Rathbone on this

689
00:35:12.159 --> 00:35:15.159
<v Speaker 1>show before years ago, but yeah, and it was always

690
00:35:15.159 --> 00:35:17.239
<v Speaker 1>fun to kind of bring that up. Yeah yeah, yeah, yeah.

691
00:35:17.239 --> 00:35:20.440
<v Speaker 2>So I would tell Rick, like, find it. If you're

692
00:35:20.519 --> 00:35:25.199
<v Speaker 2>interested in technology, find something that piques your interests, like, oh,

693
00:35:25.280 --> 00:35:27.800
<v Speaker 2>I want to learn more about how to play with

694
00:35:27.840 --> 00:35:29.800
<v Speaker 2>the stream deck and how to integrate it into my computer,

695
00:35:30.000 --> 00:35:33.320
<v Speaker 2>or I want to repair my old Xbox or you know,

696
00:35:33.400 --> 00:35:36.119
<v Speaker 2>things like that. There are tons of great guides for

697
00:35:36.440 --> 00:35:39.039
<v Speaker 2>pretty much anything you can think about.

698
00:35:39.239 --> 00:35:41.320
<v Speaker 1>All right, here's one I was thinking, And tell me

699
00:35:41.360 --> 00:35:43.800
<v Speaker 1>what do you think about this one? Sean. I got

700
00:35:43.800 --> 00:35:48.000
<v Speaker 1>into it by one day, you know, getting a computer

701
00:35:48.400 --> 00:35:51.559
<v Speaker 1>and tearing it apart and then putting it back together.

702
00:35:52.199 --> 00:35:54.320
<v Speaker 1>And then that was with the Apple, and then I

703
00:35:54.400 --> 00:35:58.360
<v Speaker 1>ended up moving towards the two eighty six and then

704
00:35:58.400 --> 00:36:00.719
<v Speaker 1>the three eighty six. I'm actually this is kind of

705
00:36:00.760 --> 00:36:04.360
<v Speaker 1>funny too. I rented a three eighty six, an old

706
00:36:04.440 --> 00:36:06.960
<v Speaker 1>laser computer from rent to Center when they used to

707
00:36:06.960 --> 00:36:10.920
<v Speaker 1>rent PCs, and I rented this thing and I would

708
00:36:10.920 --> 00:36:14.000
<v Speaker 1>like take it apart, and I would like, Okay, this

709
00:36:14.079 --> 00:36:16.599
<v Speaker 1>is how it works, this is memory, this is you

710
00:36:16.599 --> 00:36:19.039
<v Speaker 1>know you. I would learn all the basic aspects of it.

711
00:36:19.440 --> 00:36:21.719
<v Speaker 1>I don't know, what do you think the idea, depending

712
00:36:21.719 --> 00:36:24.960
<v Speaker 1>on your budget is maybe Rick's idea. And if this

713
00:36:25.159 --> 00:36:27.400
<v Speaker 1>you know anybody else that's thinking about doing this is

714
00:36:27.440 --> 00:36:29.679
<v Speaker 1>the thought, maybe build your own system.

715
00:36:30.800 --> 00:36:33.599
<v Speaker 2>And yeah, if you're if you're if you're interested in computers, like,

716
00:36:33.639 --> 00:36:37.320
<v Speaker 2>if you're interested in doing computer stuff, go to like

717
00:36:38.239 --> 00:36:40.199
<v Speaker 2>watch a couple of YouTube videos on people that are

718
00:36:40.239 --> 00:36:43.239
<v Speaker 2>doing it. M HM, budget out what you want. Go

719
00:36:43.320 --> 00:36:46.440
<v Speaker 2>to PC part picker, put your budget in there and

720
00:36:46.519 --> 00:36:48.599
<v Speaker 2>buy some pieces of components. And doesn't it to be

721
00:36:48.679 --> 00:36:52.159
<v Speaker 2>a blazing fast computer doesn't even have a dedicated graphics card.

722
00:36:52.400 --> 00:36:55.079
<v Speaker 2>Like get the motherboard, get the process or get the RAM,

723
00:36:55.480 --> 00:36:58.320
<v Speaker 2>get the case, slap it all together, put the powers

724
00:36:58.320 --> 00:37:01.960
<v Speaker 2>play they're plug things in and then push the power

725
00:37:02.000 --> 00:37:03.800
<v Speaker 2>button and it doesn't turn on because you forgot to

726
00:37:03.800 --> 00:37:06.920
<v Speaker 2>turn the power supply switch on. Don't know that from

727
00:37:06.920 --> 00:37:11.519
<v Speaker 2>personal experience. But yeah, so, I mean it's technology is

728
00:37:12.280 --> 00:37:14.280
<v Speaker 2>as much as you put into it is what you're

729
00:37:14.320 --> 00:37:15.039
<v Speaker 2>going to get out of it.

730
00:37:15.159 --> 00:37:16.920
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. Absolutely, Like Andy said.

731
00:37:16.760 --> 00:37:20.599
<v Speaker 2>He started with, you know, with Mac computers and taking

732
00:37:20.599 --> 00:37:24.760
<v Speaker 2>computers apart. My journey with technology started with more with

733
00:37:24.920 --> 00:37:27.639
<v Speaker 2>actually working on cars and dirt bikes with my dad

734
00:37:28.719 --> 00:37:32.880
<v Speaker 2>fixing cars. Technology, and it's all technology. It's just analog,

735
00:37:33.000 --> 00:37:37.519
<v Speaker 2>it's just different mechanical technology. Then I got into photography

736
00:37:37.599 --> 00:37:40.239
<v Speaker 2>and started taking cameras apart, and then I got into

737
00:37:40.280 --> 00:37:44.280
<v Speaker 2>digital video. I did some offset press printing in high school,

738
00:37:44.599 --> 00:37:46.599
<v Speaker 2>and then when I got into college, then I really

739
00:37:46.679 --> 00:37:48.320
<v Speaker 2>kind of got into the computer side of things, where

740
00:37:48.320 --> 00:37:51.199
<v Speaker 2>I had to start editing on computers and doing that

741
00:37:51.280 --> 00:37:53.360
<v Speaker 2>kind of stuff, and didn't really even build my own

742
00:37:53.559 --> 00:37:57.639
<v Speaker 2>my own computer until like twenty ten.

743
00:37:58.039 --> 00:37:59.639
<v Speaker 1>Oh wow, that's when I first really.

744
00:37:59.480 --> 00:38:01.679
<v Speaker 2>Built my That's that's when I bought and purchased my

745
00:38:01.760 --> 00:38:04.119
<v Speaker 2>own computer, my own parts, and built my own computer.

746
00:38:04.360 --> 00:38:08.639
<v Speaker 2>Right now. My mom was super into computers, and I

747
00:38:08.679 --> 00:38:11.079
<v Speaker 2>helped her put the computers together and stuff, and you know,

748
00:38:11.440 --> 00:38:13.360
<v Speaker 2>she we had a bunch of you know, I learned

749
00:38:13.360 --> 00:38:15.719
<v Speaker 2>how to do doss and that kind of stuff, and

750
00:38:15.920 --> 00:38:18.000
<v Speaker 2>I had friends that were super into computers in high school.

751
00:38:18.119 --> 00:38:22.760
<v Speaker 2>But I never built my own until and then once

752
00:38:22.960 --> 00:38:24.559
<v Speaker 2>and now it's you know, that's kind.

753
00:38:24.400 --> 00:38:28.119
<v Speaker 1>Of you I kind of missed the doss days. I mean,

754
00:38:28.159 --> 00:38:32.039
<v Speaker 1>I missed the commands. I miss you know, the dos stuff.

755
00:38:32.119 --> 00:38:34.760
<v Speaker 1>And then you know, Microsoft will have our os do

756
00:38:34.840 --> 00:38:35.239
<v Speaker 1>it for you.

757
00:38:36.039 --> 00:38:39.760
<v Speaker 2>And yeah, I mean there's something to be said about

758
00:38:39.840 --> 00:38:44.440
<v Speaker 2>being able to understand how the computer thinks. Okay, how

759
00:38:44.440 --> 00:38:47.159
<v Speaker 2>do I change the directory? How do I load from

760
00:38:47.199 --> 00:38:50.119
<v Speaker 2>the A drive? How do I load? How do I

761
00:38:50.119 --> 00:38:51.920
<v Speaker 2>load it to RAM? And how do I load it?

762
00:38:52.039 --> 00:38:56.119
<v Speaker 2>You know, there's a fundamental understanding of how that works. Right,

763
00:38:56.199 --> 00:38:58.840
<v Speaker 2>you don't get now because it's just the computer's doing

764
00:38:58.880 --> 00:39:04.000
<v Speaker 2>it all break the operating systms doing it. But yeah,

765
00:39:04.039 --> 00:39:06.239
<v Speaker 2>I mean, if if you really want a deep dive

766
00:39:06.280 --> 00:39:08.960
<v Speaker 2>into computers work, and you really want to go crazy

767
00:39:09.039 --> 00:39:13.159
<v Speaker 2>and work in that kind of an environment, put Linux

768
00:39:13.239 --> 00:39:13.480
<v Speaker 2>on it.

769
00:39:13.719 --> 00:39:16.239
<v Speaker 1>They go, oh there you go, yeah, maybe you already

770
00:39:16.320 --> 00:39:19.320
<v Speaker 1>understand Windows and that Linux would be a whole And

771
00:39:19.360 --> 00:39:23.960
<v Speaker 1>that's actually rather satisfying when you do a litic and

772
00:39:24.119 --> 00:39:26.800
<v Speaker 1>like you said, maybe build a computer system and then

773
00:39:26.960 --> 00:39:30.360
<v Speaker 1>install Linux instead of Windows and take it.

774
00:39:30.400 --> 00:39:33.679
<v Speaker 2>Take an older laptop, something that's maybe got an older

775
00:39:33.760 --> 00:39:36.840
<v Speaker 2>I five or an older AMD processor in it that

776
00:39:36.920 --> 00:39:39.000
<v Speaker 2>you're like, oh, this computer is so slow. Put Linux

777
00:39:39.039 --> 00:39:41.599
<v Speaker 2>on it, yeah, and tell me how it runs.

778
00:39:41.840 --> 00:39:43.079
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, and then figure out which.

779
00:39:42.960 --> 00:39:45.639
<v Speaker 2>You can You can revive so many older system you

780
00:39:45.679 --> 00:39:49.440
<v Speaker 2>can revive so many older systems with Linux.

781
00:39:49.639 --> 00:39:51.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, that's so true because.

782
00:39:51.079 --> 00:39:54.679
<v Speaker 2>They don't have there. I mean, there's obviously minimum restrictions

783
00:39:54.679 --> 00:39:57.280
<v Speaker 2>for like the guy the web, you know, the Guy's

784
00:39:57.280 --> 00:40:00.599
<v Speaker 2>and stuff like that, but Linux is very low weight

785
00:40:00.639 --> 00:40:02.239
<v Speaker 2>in terms of resource management.

786
00:40:02.400 --> 00:40:03.760
<v Speaker 1>All right, we got to take we got to take

787
00:40:03.760 --> 00:40:07.639
<v Speaker 1>another break. We come back. I was able to make

788
00:40:07.679 --> 00:40:11.360
<v Speaker 1>a decision when it comes to software and upgrading, what

789
00:40:11.480 --> 00:40:13.320
<v Speaker 1>is going to be the way to go. And it's

790
00:40:13.320 --> 00:40:14.800
<v Speaker 1>all because I took a look at one of the

791
00:40:14.800 --> 00:40:17.400
<v Speaker 1>products that they offer. So tell you more about that

792
00:40:17.480 --> 00:40:20.239
<v Speaker 1>when we come back. I'm Andy Taylor, I'm Seanda Weird.

811
00:41:08.159 --> 00:41:12.039
<v Speaker 2>Called this time. This one is from Laura in Tucson.

812
00:41:12.199 --> 00:41:12.519
<v Speaker 1>All right.

813
00:41:13.000 --> 00:41:15.679
<v Speaker 2>I'm not always near a computer, and sometimes I will

814
00:41:15.679 --> 00:41:17.480
<v Speaker 2>see a story on my phone that I want to

815
00:41:17.559 --> 00:41:20.760
<v Speaker 2>copy the text. Is there a simple way to do that?

816
00:41:20.800 --> 00:41:22.840
<v Speaker 2>If I take a picture of the text.

817
00:41:23.679 --> 00:41:28.360
<v Speaker 1>Oh, okay, most most newer phones.

818
00:41:28.719 --> 00:41:31.400
<v Speaker 2>I could do this with my iPhone thirteen. If I

819
00:41:31.519 --> 00:41:34.320
<v Speaker 2>take a picture of text, or if I take a

820
00:41:34.360 --> 00:41:40.159
<v Speaker 2>screenshot in my photo library, I can just highlight the

821
00:41:40.159 --> 00:41:41.880
<v Speaker 2>text like I want on my keyboard and copy it.

822
00:41:42.320 --> 00:41:45.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. I know. If you use Google Photos photos dot

823
00:41:45.360 --> 00:41:47.599
<v Speaker 1>Google dot com, if you whether you have an iPhone

824
00:41:47.760 --> 00:41:51.280
<v Speaker 1>or you know an Android device. I have my my

825
00:41:51.679 --> 00:41:56.039
<v Speaker 1>pixel Pixel nine. I can just go into Google Photos,

826
00:41:56.119 --> 00:41:58.519
<v Speaker 1>look at that photo that maybe I've taken, whether it

827
00:41:58.559 --> 00:42:01.239
<v Speaker 1>be a picture off a story in the newspaper or

828
00:42:01.400 --> 00:42:05.719
<v Speaker 1>screen capture. Maybe I've done that with screencaps before and

829
00:42:06.000 --> 00:42:08.920
<v Speaker 1>using the lens, the Google lens feature, I can highlight

830
00:42:08.960 --> 00:42:11.000
<v Speaker 1>the text and then copy it to word pad or

831
00:42:11.360 --> 00:42:13.159
<v Speaker 1>notepad or word or whatever. You know.

832
00:42:13.559 --> 00:42:16.519
<v Speaker 2>I screen I screenshot tons of stuff on my phone.

833
00:42:16.239 --> 00:42:16.760
<v Speaker 1>All the time.

834
00:42:17.400 --> 00:42:21.639
<v Speaker 2>Articles. Weblinks. Oh that's a cool picture, or that's a

835
00:42:21.679 --> 00:42:25.039
<v Speaker 2>cool thing I want to remember, or oh I need

836
00:42:25.079 --> 00:42:27.480
<v Speaker 2>to remember how to do that, you know, two days

837
00:42:27.519 --> 00:42:30.719
<v Speaker 2>from now, or I just screenshot it. It's two It's

838
00:42:30.800 --> 00:42:33.920
<v Speaker 2>the top button and the right you know, the top

839
00:42:34.000 --> 00:42:36.679
<v Speaker 2>left button and the right button on my click screenshot.

840
00:42:37.000 --> 00:42:38.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, I AGLORI I can.

841
00:42:38.719 --> 00:42:40.199
<v Speaker 2>I can crop it, I can edit it, I can

842
00:42:40.280 --> 00:42:44.280
<v Speaker 2>highlight it. So on my iPhone, I know that Android

843
00:42:45.320 --> 00:42:49.519
<v Speaker 2>or Google pixel like very similar process to do. And

844
00:42:49.599 --> 00:42:51.639
<v Speaker 2>if you just want to copy it, you should just

845
00:42:51.679 --> 00:42:54.440
<v Speaker 2>be able to on any web page on your phone,

846
00:42:54.519 --> 00:42:57.719
<v Speaker 2>just press it hold, highlight the text within the article itself,

847
00:42:57.800 --> 00:43:00.239
<v Speaker 2>copy the text into a note, into an e mail,

848
00:43:00.320 --> 00:43:01.280
<v Speaker 2>to a text message.

849
00:43:02.159 --> 00:43:07.360
<v Speaker 1>Yeah. With that. The other day she saw a recipe online,

850
00:43:07.840 --> 00:43:11.360
<v Speaker 1>so she was able to screencap, you know, screen cap it.

851
00:43:11.760 --> 00:43:13.960
<v Speaker 1>Then she said can you print this for me? And

852
00:43:14.000 --> 00:43:15.119
<v Speaker 1>I said, oh, what are you gonna do with it?

853
00:43:15.119 --> 00:43:16.840
<v Speaker 1>She's well I want to. I want to, you know,

854
00:43:17.039 --> 00:43:19.719
<v Speaker 1>put it in my thing of recipes. And I said, oh,

855
00:43:19.920 --> 00:43:23.039
<v Speaker 1>if we do this, So I showed her basically copying

856
00:43:23.159 --> 00:43:25.119
<v Speaker 1>the text and all that, and she said, yeah, I'm

857
00:43:25.119 --> 00:43:27.800
<v Speaker 1>not going to do that. She said, it's too much work.

858
00:43:28.199 --> 00:43:30.800
<v Speaker 2>Also, you think about so if you want to revisit

859
00:43:30.840 --> 00:43:33.599
<v Speaker 2>it later and it's run a weblink. They just sink

860
00:43:33.639 --> 00:43:36.840
<v Speaker 2>your book barks between your mobile and your Chrome. Like,

861
00:43:36.920 --> 00:43:39.119
<v Speaker 2>if you have Chrome, you can sink. You can sink

862
00:43:39.159 --> 00:43:43.639
<v Speaker 2>book barks between mobile and desktop.

863
00:43:43.800 --> 00:43:46.440
<v Speaker 1>Yeah, my Mac does it all the time.

864
00:43:46.480 --> 00:43:48.559
<v Speaker 2>If I'm sitting at my desktop right and I had

865
00:43:48.599 --> 00:43:51.920
<v Speaker 2>my phone open and I'm browsing, like, it'll pop up

866
00:43:51.920 --> 00:43:53.719
<v Speaker 2>an icon and I can just click on it on

867
00:43:53.760 --> 00:43:56.599
<v Speaker 2>my Mac and it'll pop up that into my Mac.

868
00:43:56.760 --> 00:43:58.840
<v Speaker 1>A lot of people don't know about that. That's good.

869
00:43:59.079 --> 00:44:02.480
<v Speaker 2>It's very easy to if you save a bookmark on

870
00:44:02.519 --> 00:44:05.639
<v Speaker 2>your phone and then if your bookmarks are sync, go

871
00:44:05.719 --> 00:44:08.440
<v Speaker 2>to your computer and write continue off where you left off.

872
00:44:08.519 --> 00:44:11.679
<v Speaker 1>So all right, So there's a story that has been

873
00:44:11.719 --> 00:44:16.239
<v Speaker 1>out there about aiars technica. Actually the story and I

874
00:44:16.280 --> 00:44:18.360
<v Speaker 1>read it and it just made me shake my head.

875
00:44:18.960 --> 00:44:20.559
<v Speaker 1>It was something that I think we're going to see

876
00:44:20.559 --> 00:44:24.920
<v Speaker 1>more and more of the new owners of VPN provider

877
00:44:25.039 --> 00:44:29.880
<v Speaker 1>VPN Secure have been canceling lifetime subscriptions. So you know,

878
00:44:29.920 --> 00:44:31.960
<v Speaker 1>you sign up with the service, you pay X amount

879
00:44:32.000 --> 00:44:36.480
<v Speaker 1>of dollars and you've got a lifetime subscription. The owners

880
00:44:36.480 --> 00:44:39.159
<v Speaker 1>apparently told customers they didn't even know about the lifetime

881
00:44:39.159 --> 00:44:42.199
<v Speaker 1>subscriptions when they bought the company, and that there's no

882
00:44:42.280 --> 00:44:45.719
<v Speaker 1>way that they can honor those purchases. And I don't know,

883
00:44:45.800 --> 00:44:48.440
<v Speaker 1>you know, at some point, we could see attorney generals,

884
00:44:48.480 --> 00:44:53.400
<v Speaker 1>we could see lawsuits being filed, because when somebody buys

885
00:44:53.440 --> 00:44:57.199
<v Speaker 1>something in perpetuity, or they buy a lifetime license, they

886
00:44:57.239 --> 00:44:58.840
<v Speaker 1>should that is what they should get.

887
00:44:58.960 --> 00:45:03.639
<v Speaker 2>Right in a a world driven by software as a service,

888
00:45:04.400 --> 00:45:08.320
<v Speaker 2>you were going to see this so much more. I

889
00:45:08.400 --> 00:45:11.280
<v Speaker 2>get it from a from a bottom line standpoint. If

890
00:45:11.360 --> 00:45:13.519
<v Speaker 2>you if I like I have plex, I bought like

891
00:45:13.960 --> 00:45:18.000
<v Speaker 2>plex pass, right, this is another good example like it.

892
00:45:18.559 --> 00:45:21.800
<v Speaker 2>Plex Pass did this where they're like, hey, FYI were

893
00:45:21.880 --> 00:45:24.400
<v Speaker 2>raising our price on our lifetime subscriptions to plex pass.

894
00:45:24.559 --> 00:45:25.400
<v Speaker 1>You've already paid people.

895
00:45:25.960 --> 00:45:28.519
<v Speaker 2>If you don't buy it before this date, it's going

896
00:45:28.599 --> 00:45:31.199
<v Speaker 2>to go up by a significant amount of money. And

897
00:45:31.239 --> 00:45:33.920
<v Speaker 2>so a lot of people bought it, or you know,

898
00:45:33.960 --> 00:45:38.519
<v Speaker 2>I bought my like eight years ago and it's been fantastic, right,

899
00:45:38.639 --> 00:45:42.800
<v Speaker 2>But if Plex have decided to just nuke my lifetime subscription,

900
00:45:42.920 --> 00:45:44.440
<v Speaker 2>I would just go to someone else, like I would,

901
00:45:44.480 --> 00:45:46.639
<v Speaker 2>I would refuse to go back to Plex after that,

902
00:45:47.159 --> 00:45:51.360
<v Speaker 2>claiming to not know they existed. That's just shoddy business management.

903
00:45:52.039 --> 00:45:55.920
<v Speaker 2>But you saw stuff like this with Broadcom taking over VMware.

904
00:45:56.280 --> 00:45:58.480
<v Speaker 1>Oh that's right, that just happened recently too.

905
00:45:58.559 --> 00:46:04.480
<v Speaker 2>Where Broadcom came in and said we bought VMware. We're

906
00:46:04.519 --> 00:46:08.920
<v Speaker 2>raising the price by three thousand percent, and companies were like,

907
00:46:09.679 --> 00:46:12.039
<v Speaker 2>what what do you mean? Well, yeah, if you want

908
00:46:12.079 --> 00:46:15.840
<v Speaker 2>to keep your product past your current contract, you're gonna

909
00:46:15.840 --> 00:46:18.840
<v Speaker 2>have to pony up three thousand percent more money. And

910
00:46:20.159 --> 00:46:24.440
<v Speaker 2>people lost their mines because you don't think how much

911
00:46:25.199 --> 00:46:28.880
<v Speaker 2>content lives on virtual machines in the cloud. It's a lot.

912
00:46:29.320 --> 00:46:33.079
<v Speaker 1>Well, especially now where we're seeing Windows eleven coming around

913
00:46:33.159 --> 00:46:36.400
<v Speaker 1>for the consumer or even business user Windows eleven coming around,

914
00:46:36.480 --> 00:46:40.760
<v Speaker 1>it could cause computers that needed to be reinstalled. Maybe

915
00:46:40.760 --> 00:46:43.639
<v Speaker 1>they can update a computer so they have to reinstall software.

916
00:46:43.880 --> 00:46:46.559
<v Speaker 1>Suddenly their software won't install because well, they've taken down

917
00:46:46.599 --> 00:46:50.440
<v Speaker 1>activation servers we saw that with Adobe. It's what I've

918
00:46:50.480 --> 00:46:55.840
<v Speaker 1>been going through. I used the Adobe Master Suite of five,

919
00:46:56.400 --> 00:46:59.800
<v Speaker 1>which has been phenomenal. I got it back in twenty

920
00:47:00.159 --> 00:47:04.119
<v Speaker 1>twelve and I love it Photoshop Adobe Edition Premiere Pro,

921
00:47:04.400 --> 00:47:07.960
<v Speaker 1>and I've mastered how to use it after effects and

922
00:47:08.000 --> 00:47:11.920
<v Speaker 1>it's been great. But now go into Windows eleven. I

923
00:47:11.960 --> 00:47:14.679
<v Speaker 1>wanted to install it on the new eleven system I bought,

924
00:47:14.719 --> 00:47:17.239
<v Speaker 1>and it won't let me install it because their registration

925
00:47:17.360 --> 00:47:21.320
<v Speaker 1>servers are not accepting any more registrations because they want

926
00:47:21.360 --> 00:47:24.559
<v Speaker 1>everybody software and services. And I'll tell you, Sean, I

927
00:47:24.960 --> 00:47:27.480
<v Speaker 1>was really upset about it, and I started thinking, Okay,

928
00:47:27.480 --> 00:47:31.199
<v Speaker 1>I'm gonna have to look for other means. I do

929
00:47:31.320 --> 00:47:34.199
<v Speaker 1>know that Adobe right now is doing their creative cloud

930
00:47:34.239 --> 00:47:38.400
<v Speaker 1>licenses at are reduced price. So basically, if you want

931
00:47:38.440 --> 00:47:41.880
<v Speaker 1>everything in their software pool, it will cost you about

932
00:47:41.920 --> 00:47:45.320
<v Speaker 1>fifty bucks a month, maybe even maybe fifty nine dollars

933
00:47:45.360 --> 00:47:48.679
<v Speaker 1>a month. And I was ready to say forget it.

934
00:47:48.800 --> 00:47:52.880
<v Speaker 1>I started learning a different audio program, Render which was

935
00:47:53.199 --> 00:47:57.519
<v Speaker 1>recommended no Reaper, which was recommended by Matt, and I've

936
00:47:57.599 --> 00:48:01.360
<v Speaker 1>kind of mastered that one, but I've got to pay

937
00:48:01.400 --> 00:48:04.400
<v Speaker 1>for a license a sixty five bucks and then I

938
00:48:04.480 --> 00:48:08.000
<v Speaker 1>noticed my mixture that I have the MACI has a

939
00:48:08.039 --> 00:48:11.519
<v Speaker 1>free license for pro Tools. So I went ahead and

940
00:48:11.519 --> 00:48:14.519
<v Speaker 1>in Salt Pro Tools. And it took me about a week,

941
00:48:14.679 --> 00:48:16.599
<v Speaker 1>but I've learned how to use it to do what

942
00:48:16.639 --> 00:48:18.719
<v Speaker 1>I need to do for work. And I was ready

943
00:48:18.760 --> 00:48:20.599
<v Speaker 1>to say, Okay, that's what I'm gonna end up doing.

944
00:48:20.920 --> 00:48:23.800
<v Speaker 1>I will still have I have the Master Suite on

945
00:48:23.800 --> 00:48:26.519
<v Speaker 1>one system that I will just keep using even when

946
00:48:26.840 --> 00:48:30.360
<v Speaker 1>everything goes Windows eleven and you know, on Windows ten.

947
00:48:31.679 --> 00:48:37.880
<v Speaker 1>But then I found Firefly from Adobe, and that has

948
00:48:37.960 --> 00:48:41.320
<v Speaker 1>changed almost everything in the way. I'm thinking it is

949
00:48:41.320 --> 00:48:44.360
<v Speaker 1>worth it when you look at and Firefly is separate,

950
00:48:44.920 --> 00:48:47.159
<v Speaker 1>but you get the creative cloud. You're going to master

951
00:48:47.719 --> 00:48:49.639
<v Speaker 1>all of the cool new tools that are a part

952
00:48:49.800 --> 00:48:53.079
<v Speaker 1>of Premiere Pro, all the cool tools that are part

953
00:48:53.239 --> 00:48:57.599
<v Speaker 1>of the new Photoshop audition, dream Weaver, if you use that.

954
00:48:58.360 --> 00:49:01.760
<v Speaker 1>So many different parts of this. But you've got generative

955
00:49:01.760 --> 00:49:06.519
<v Speaker 1>fill for Photoshop, generative extent for Premiere and now with Firefly,

956
00:49:06.800 --> 00:49:11.000
<v Speaker 1>you could create images from text that you could drop

957
00:49:11.000 --> 00:49:13.639
<v Speaker 1>into videos. You know, I need an angry sun and

958
00:49:13.719 --> 00:49:16.119
<v Speaker 1>the boom it pops up an angry sun, or I

959
00:49:16.159 --> 00:49:18.199
<v Speaker 1>need a hit one of the things they had on

960
00:49:18.239 --> 00:49:23.079
<v Speaker 1>their gallery a hippopotamus that is wearing a watermelon that

961
00:49:23.239 --> 00:49:26.039
<v Speaker 1>is in the water. It's a video and it's pretty

962
00:49:26.039 --> 00:49:30.239
<v Speaker 1>amazing stuff. It's AI. Of course, they're doing it separately

963
00:49:30.400 --> 00:49:35.280
<v Speaker 1>outside of the Adobe Creative Cloud. So when you pay

964
00:49:35.360 --> 00:49:39.880
<v Speaker 1>for your credit, you get credits. You'll pay nine dollars

965
00:49:39.920 --> 00:49:41.679
<v Speaker 1>in ninety nine cents a month and you'll get I

966
00:49:41.679 --> 00:49:45.480
<v Speaker 1>believe it's two thousand credits. You could pay more, or

967
00:49:45.480 --> 00:49:46.760
<v Speaker 1>you can pay all the way up to two hundred

968
00:49:46.760 --> 00:49:48.559
<v Speaker 1>bucks a month, depending on how you're going to be

969
00:49:48.599 --> 00:49:51.320
<v Speaker 1>using this, Like I could imagine that, you know, graphics

970
00:49:51.360 --> 00:49:54.440
<v Speaker 1>design shops of film houses, they're all going to be,

971
00:49:54.519 --> 00:49:58.039
<v Speaker 1>you know, probably delving into Firefly a little more. But

972
00:49:58.079 --> 00:50:01.119
<v Speaker 1>that's what kind of changed my mind that and maybe

973
00:50:01.239 --> 00:50:05.599
<v Speaker 1>realize that, yes, I've been using the Creative Suite for

974
00:50:05.639 --> 00:50:09.320
<v Speaker 1>almost ten years, but I have lost the innovation that

975
00:50:09.360 --> 00:50:12.199
<v Speaker 1>the company has done with some of the changes they've

976
00:50:12.199 --> 00:50:15.800
<v Speaker 1>made with version six and now with the Creative Cloud.

977
00:50:15.880 --> 00:50:18.280
<v Speaker 1>So it looks like I'm probably gonna have to bite

978
00:50:18.840 --> 00:50:22.159
<v Speaker 1>a little of the a little of that and go

979
00:50:22.199 --> 00:50:25.960
<v Speaker 1>with the next version of Creative Cloud. So that's I

980
00:50:26.000 --> 00:50:27.440
<v Speaker 1>think that's the way I'm going. But if you get

981
00:50:27.480 --> 00:50:29.320
<v Speaker 1>a chance take a look at Firefly. Just go to

982
00:50:29.360 --> 00:50:31.559
<v Speaker 1>Adobe dot com. I believe you can set up a

983
00:50:31.559 --> 00:50:33.679
<v Speaker 1>free count if you don't have one already, and then

984
00:50:33.880 --> 00:50:36.079
<v Speaker 1>they'll let you generate two of them and it might

985
00:50:36.119 --> 00:50:37.599
<v Speaker 1>be pretty amazing for you to see.

986
00:50:37.840 --> 00:50:41.360
<v Speaker 2>Yeah, I mean, I don't. I haven't used I don't know.

987
00:50:41.400 --> 00:50:45.440
<v Speaker 2>I haven't used a whole lot of the Adobe Sweet

988
00:50:45.440 --> 00:50:50.079
<v Speaker 2>outside of light Room and Photoshop Right Premiere for some

989
00:50:50.119 --> 00:50:54.079
<v Speaker 2>basic editing. I mostly use Final Cut, Final Cut pro

990
00:50:54.400 --> 00:50:57.119
<v Speaker 2>YEA for my video editing, or Da Vinci Resolved for

991
00:50:57.239 --> 00:51:01.480
<v Speaker 2>color grading. So I don't. I don't have a need

992
00:51:01.800 --> 00:51:06.400
<v Speaker 2>for I don't have a need for it. To get

993
00:51:06.440 --> 00:51:09.119
<v Speaker 2>to pay the license, I also with my with my

994
00:51:09.880 --> 00:51:13.199
<v Speaker 2>edu with the Notre Dame. Oh I get I get

995
00:51:13.199 --> 00:51:18.280
<v Speaker 2>the student I get access to the suite through the university.

996
00:51:19.119 --> 00:51:22.239
<v Speaker 2>So I was I originally was paying for the photography bundle,

997
00:51:22.719 --> 00:51:24.840
<v Speaker 2>which was like twenty eight dollars a month I think,

998
00:51:24.840 --> 00:51:28.639
<v Speaker 2>which came with Photoshop, Lightroom, light Let Classic and you know,

999
00:51:28.800 --> 00:51:33.920
<v Speaker 2>like the couple gigs of storage on the cloud. But yeah,

1000
00:51:33.920 --> 00:51:37.400
<v Speaker 2>I don't. I don't have experience with the Firefly AI

1001
00:51:37.440 --> 00:51:41.239
<v Speaker 2>generative stuff Hey, you know I've I took part of

1002
00:51:41.280 --> 00:51:44.199
<v Speaker 2>the I took part in the chat GPT pilot with

1003
00:51:44.320 --> 00:51:46.880
<v Speaker 2>the university, and I still use chat GPT on almost

1004
00:51:46.920 --> 00:51:50.360
<v Speaker 2>a daily basis at with with at work doing basic

1005
00:51:50.400 --> 00:51:53.559
<v Speaker 2>things like what I use it for primarily is searching

1006
00:51:53.599 --> 00:51:57.440
<v Speaker 2>for search and searching manuals, like hey, I have this

1007
00:51:57.519 --> 00:52:00.719
<v Speaker 2>specific close captioning encoder and I need to see the

1008
00:52:00.760 --> 00:52:03.360
<v Speaker 2>seven to eight captions as open.

1009
00:52:03.119 --> 00:52:06.239
<v Speaker 1>Captions right right, boom, here it is, here's the manual.

1010
00:52:06.320 --> 00:52:08.360
<v Speaker 2>Here's what you need. I don't have to go find

1011
00:52:08.360 --> 00:52:12.239
<v Speaker 2>the manual. It finds the page right. It's great. That's

1012
00:52:12.239 --> 00:52:15.519
<v Speaker 2>what I use it for. I use it for troubleshooting,

1013
00:52:16.480 --> 00:52:19.440
<v Speaker 2>time saving, right and things like that.

1014
00:52:19.480 --> 00:52:21.599
<v Speaker 1>But all right, well listen, we got to take another

1015
00:52:21.679 --> 00:52:24.079
<v Speaker 1>quick break. We come back with more of tech Talk

1021
00:52:34.960 --> 00:52:38.920
<v Speaker 2>So everybody knows that I love flashlights, like everyday carry

1022
00:52:38.920 --> 00:52:42.599
<v Speaker 2>a flashlight a software in EC three pro, and I

1023
00:52:42.679 --> 00:52:45.280
<v Speaker 2>decided to make Max his first lash light.

1024
00:52:45.400 --> 00:52:48.480
<v Speaker 1>Now how old is Max three three okay, good.

1025
00:52:50.000 --> 00:52:53.519
<v Speaker 2>Everybody that was born in the eighties had this flashlight

1026
00:52:53.599 --> 00:52:54.119
<v Speaker 2>growing up.

1027
00:52:54.360 --> 00:52:55.960
<v Speaker 1>Play school. Look at this.

1028
00:52:56.400 --> 00:53:01.800
<v Speaker 2>It is the play school try color flashlight, all right, now,

1029
00:53:01.880 --> 00:53:06.360
<v Speaker 2>this is this is the special translucent translucent one I had. This.

1030
00:53:06.360 --> 00:53:07.960
<v Speaker 2>This is not the one I had growing up. That

1031
00:53:08.000 --> 00:53:12.440
<v Speaker 2>one is long gone. They have multiple solid colored versions.

1032
00:53:13.320 --> 00:53:15.400
<v Speaker 2>But it came with a Measley. I don't even remember

1033
00:53:15.440 --> 00:53:18.280
<v Speaker 2>what watch the light bulb was, right, So I said,

1034
00:53:18.320 --> 00:53:21.480
<v Speaker 2>you know what, I'm gonna put an led in there?

1035
00:53:22.039 --> 00:53:25.559
<v Speaker 1>An led So I gutted it right.

1036
00:53:26.239 --> 00:53:29.039
<v Speaker 2>And I took a I don't even remember what the

1037
00:53:29.039 --> 00:53:32.840
<v Speaker 2>battery size is. It's the you know the sixteen eighty

1038
00:53:32.960 --> 00:53:36.039
<v Speaker 2>forty five, sixteen eighty forty five whatever the battery size,

1039
00:53:36.920 --> 00:53:41.280
<v Speaker 2>took the battery holder out, which was which was the

1040
00:53:41.360 --> 00:53:44.360
<v Speaker 2>two D cells or two C solid batteries. Yeah, so
