Retailer, right, so maybe 0:09:47.320 --> 0:09:49.520 you're going to Best buy and they're, saying, hey if 0:09:49.520 --> 0:09:51.160 you spend one hundred dollars the Best, buy we'll give 0:09:51.160 --> 0:09:53.400 you five dollars on a statement. Credit, well you have 0:09:53.480 --> 0:09:56.760 to activate each one of those independently. Online it's a, 0:09:56.760 --> 0:09:58.679 pain and they know most people don't do, it so 0:09:58.720 --> 0:10:01.760 most people lose out on these. Counts but there are 0:10:01.760 --> 0:10:06.360 two websites that can help you activate all of these offers. 0:10:06.480 --> 0:10:09.120 Automatically as soon as you visit your credit card, company 0:10:09.120 --> 0:10:10.320 you log, In i'll, say, hey do you want us 0:10:10.320 --> 0:10:11.440 to activate all your offers at. 0:10:11.440 --> 0:10:11.680 Once. 0:10:12.120 --> 0:10:17.840 Yes they are called Card pointers cardpointers dot.

Com, 0:10:22.040 --> 0:10:24.319 NOW i will tell you you have to have a 0:10:24.440 --> 0:10:27.840 pro or a paid membership to get the auto, activation 0:10:28.360 --> 0:10:31.360 but the paid membership is not that expensive and you'll 0:10:31.400 --> 0:10:33.960 probably make back that money if you use a couple 0:10:34.000 --> 0:10:36.240 of these offers throughout the. Year, now you can use 0:10:36.240 --> 0:10:38.679 both of these websites for. Free you just don't get 0:10:38.720 --> 0:10:40.920 the auto.

Secret they've talked about. This it's called 0:18:04.240 --> 0:18:04.639 The Blank. 0:18:04.680 --> 0:18:09.119 Slate that's their FIRST ev and it's basically a blank, 0:18:09.160 --> 0:18:11.760 slate so it doesn't even have a center console. Screen 0:18:12.160 --> 0:18:14.320 you buy this car and then you add only the 0:18:14.320 --> 0:18:17.359 things you, want so only comes in one color. Gray 0:18:17.840 --> 0:18:21.960 so let's talk To Jeff, jablinski head of communications At, 0:18:22.040 --> 0:18:24.199 slate to learn more about The SLATE. 0:18:24.280 --> 0:18:25.840 Ev so what Is. 0:18:25.920 --> 0:18:29.480 Slate slate is a New american company building vehicles that 0:18:29.520 --> 0:18:31.240 people can, afford, personalize and. 0:18:31.280 --> 0:18:33.359 Love and what's your first vehicle going to? 0:18:33.400 --> 0:18:36.359 Be so our first vehicle is The Slate, truck which 0:18:36.359 --> 0:18:39.359 we debuted back In. April we revealed it for the 0:18:39.359 --> 0:18:41.760 first time after working on it for about three years in. 0:18:41.840 --> 0:18:45.280 Stealth Slate truck is more than just a pickup. Truck 0:18:45.600 --> 0:18:49.720 it can also convert into a five seed suv and 0:18:49.800 --> 0:18:51.280 we think people are going to love. It we've already 0:18:51.280 --> 0:18:53.760 taken over one hundred thousand reservations from the truck since we. 0:18:53.800 --> 0:18:56.800 Revealed and what's different about this car than every other 0:18:56.840 --> 0:18:58.040 car that's coming out these? 0:18:58.119 --> 0:19:01.199 Days so like every every car that's coming out these 0:19:01.280 --> 0:19:03.680 days is too. Expensive the average price of a new 0:19:03.680 --> 0:19:06.359 car is like fifty thousand. Dollars for used, car it's 0:19:06.400 --> 0:19:09.480 about over thirty thousand. Dollars right, now people are underwater 0:19:09.480 --> 0:19:12.320 and car payments and they're not able to make vehicles 0:19:12.600 --> 0:19:13.320 the way they want. 0:19:13.359 --> 0:19:14.200 To so it's. 0:19:14.200 --> 0:19:16.959 Slate we, said what if we reimagined, it and what 0:19:17.000 --> 0:19:19.439 if we instead of adding things to be, different we. 0:19:19.520 --> 0:19:23.480 Subtracted so the blank slate as we call, it single configuration. 0:19:23.600 --> 0:19:26.640 Vehicle it's AN. Ev we're making them here In, indiana 0:19:27.119 --> 0:19:30.399 and we are really excited about the fact that you 0:19:30.440 --> 0:19:33.399 can personalize it after you buy. It so accessorize it 0:19:33.560 --> 0:19:36.120 from everything from a full vehicle wrap starting around five 0:19:36.160 --> 0:19:39.760 hundred dollars instead of multiples of, that to adding accessories 0:19:39.800 --> 0:19:42.600 from wheel, decals lift, kits. 0:19:42.480 --> 0:19:45.040 You name it and you can do. It is the 0:19:45.119 --> 0:19:46.280 car safe at that? 0:19:46.320 --> 0:19:48.600 Price, Yeah so one of the things that we said 0:19:48.680 --> 0:19:51.439 was everybody deserves a safe. Vehicle so we've designed it 0:19:51.480 --> 0:19:55.040 to BE iihs five star top safety. 0:19:55.080 --> 0:19:58.919 Pick we knew that we couldn't compromise on. That and 0:19:59.000 --> 0:20:00.879 so did you draw in inspiration from like the? 0:20:00.920 --> 0:20:03.840 iPhone like it seems like you've got the blank, slate 0:20:03.920 --> 0:20:06.080 like you, said but then you add accessories like almost 0:20:06.119 --> 0:20:07.040 like a case and a screen. 0:20:07.080 --> 0:20:09.760 Protector is there a software play here as well or? 0:20:09.760 --> 0:20:13.080 No so we took inspiration from the automotive world as 0:20:13.119 --> 0:20:16.760 well as basically everywhere else because we started, from you, 0:20:16.800 --> 0:20:18.320 know part of the. Pond we started from a blank 0:20:18.359 --> 0:20:22.480 slate and from a software, perspective we're actually we're. 0:20:22.840 --> 0:20:23.360 Bringing your own. 0:20:23.400 --> 0:20:26.000 Technology so one of the things you noticed right away 0:20:26.240 --> 0:20:29.080 inside the vehicle is there's no big. Screen people to 0:20:29.160 --> 0:20:31.280 say enough like rere tired of having a big. Screen 0:20:31.600 --> 0:20:34.800 so instead we're decoupled from the consumer electronics life cycle 0:20:35.160 --> 0:20:37.680 and you bring your own. Technology so the blank slate 0:20:37.720 --> 0:20:39.480 comes to the phone, holder and then you can have 0:20:39.600 --> 0:20:42.720 accessories like a tablet if you want, to or bring 0:20:42.760 --> 0:20:43.520 in everything that you. 0:20:43.600 --> 0:20:44.879 Like and it's all. 0:20:44.920 --> 0:20:48.000 Yours there's no, no there's no motive in the vehicle 0:20:48.520 --> 0:20:52.800 h and basically it's it's whenever level of technology you. 0:20:52.840 --> 0:20:57.040 Want is there a dashboard oh, yeah, okay, sashboard, yeah, 0:20:57.200 --> 0:20:59.880 dashboard review camera but basically that's. 0:20:59.880 --> 0:21:01.760 It and what about a? 0:21:01.880 --> 0:21:07.080 Radio, yeah so no, radio so, nothing no entertainment in 0:21:07.119 --> 0:21:08.560 the car except your OWN. 0:21:08.600 --> 0:21:09.000 Byo. 0:21:09.400 --> 0:21:11.720 Yeah so we looked at what people were actually doing 0:21:11.720 --> 0:21:14.280 in their, vehicles and so much of what you use for, 0:21:14.400 --> 0:21:17.480 technology media streaming is already on your, phone so you 0:21:17.480 --> 0:21:19.960 bring that. In THERE'S usb power so you can charge. 0:21:20.000 --> 0:21:23.520 It and we offer blue suit as an. Accessory so, 0:21:23.680 --> 0:21:26.440 yeah but no no radio as standards and. 0:21:26.359 --> 0:21:28.359 So when are you going to get these cars on? 0:21:28.480 --> 0:21:32.560 Roads, yeah so we'll be building vehicles In indiana starting 0:21:32.600 --> 0:21:35.920 in twenty twenty. Six our reservations opened back In, april 0:21:36.680 --> 0:21:39.280 and we can produce up to one hundred and fifty 0:21:39.280 --> 0:21:42.879 thousand of our factory that we re industrializing In. 0:21:42.880 --> 0:21:45.400 Indiana do you think you can actually do? This can 0:21:45.440 --> 0:21:47.920 you get these cars? Made because there's been so many 0:21:48.320 --> 0:21:52.000 issues with you, know affordable evs in the past ten. 0:21:52.080 --> 0:21:54.760 Years everyone says they want to do, it but we 0:21:54.800 --> 0:21:55.280 haven't seen. 0:21:55.320 --> 0:21:59.040 It so we're building the affordable vehicle that's been promised 0:21:59.080 --> 0:22:02.399 but never. Delivered and we did that by not saying 0:22:02.400 --> 0:22:04.359 how can we do this at the lowest, price but 0:22:04.400 --> 0:22:08.240 by eliminating costly parts of the automotive process that people 0:22:08.280 --> 0:22:11.200 aren't asking. For, so for, example there's no. Paint it's 0:22:11.200 --> 0:22:15.159 molded in to the composite panels in the. Vehicle but 0:22:15.240 --> 0:22:17.520 from that point you can wrap. It that's a savings 0:22:17.520 --> 0:22:20.359 in the range of hundreds of millions of. Dollars then 0:22:20.359 --> 0:22:22.360 we can pass right back on to people and hit 0:22:22.400 --> 0:22:22.760 that price. 0:22:22.800 --> 0:22:26.280 Point tell me about the electric aspect of, this it's 0:22:26.520 --> 0:22:28.760 how many miles do you get and how do you charge? 0:22:28.800 --> 0:22:30.760 It, yeah so in the fact that it's an ev 0:22:30.920 --> 0:22:33.280 is almost the least exciting thing about it because of 0:22:33.280 --> 0:22:35.960 everything else that a slate can. Do we have a 0:22:36.000 --> 0:22:39.200 fifty two point seven kill what our battery good for 0:22:39.240 --> 0:22:41.240 about one hundred and fifty miles of.

Battery it's good for about two hundred and forty. 0:22:47.080 --> 0:22:50.919 Miles you can charge it at A tesla supercharger at 0:22:50.920 --> 0:22:51.920 about one hundred and twenty. 0:22:51.960 --> 0:22:55.119 Kilowatts and it's been, reported you, Know Jeff bezos is 0:22:55.160 --> 0:22:56.239 a big investor in this. 0:22:56.280 --> 0:22:59.200 Company is this something that's going to be sold On?

That 0:24:17.600 --> 0:24:18.160 and what about? 0:24:18.200 --> 0:24:22.639 Repairs so after, repairs we actually just announced a partnership 0:24:22.680 --> 0:24:25.160 with Repair, palel which is a network of independent service 0:24:25.200 --> 0:24:28.240 stations all across THE. Us they have about four thousand 0:24:28.560 --> 0:24:31.119 shops right, now and we're hoping that sleave owners are 0:24:31.119 --> 0:24:33.719 going to be able to find repair poll locations in their. 0:24:33.720 --> 0:24:37.240 Neighborhoods and you've gotten a bunch of reservations for these. 0:24:37.400 --> 0:24:40.359 Cars what are the biggest questions people are asking you about? 0:24:40.400 --> 0:24:42.200 This other than when CAN i get? 0:24:42.200 --> 0:24:43.840 THIS i was going to say that's the first question 0:24:43.880 --> 0:24:45.639 people ask us is how soon CAN i get this 0:24:45.720 --> 0:24:48.760 in my? Driveway because they're drawn to what we're.

Significantly our factory 0:25:07.359 --> 0:25:10.080 In indiana was formally a printing, press so they never made. 0:25:10.080 --> 0:25:13.840 Automobiles but we're taking something that existed in the community 0:25:13.880 --> 0:25:16.520 and we're revitalizing. IT i use the term, reindustrialized but 0:25:16.920 --> 0:25:21.880 we're turning that printing press into an automobile factory In, Warsaw. 0:25:21.880 --> 0:25:24.359 Indiana so with that and we're going to be taking 0:25:24.359 --> 0:25:25.920 From indiana and bringing it. 0:25:25.840 --> 0:25:27.600 To the rest of THE.

Want BUT 0:26:06.840 --> 0:26:10.160 i think it's really telling that there's no center console. 0:26:10.280 --> 0:26:12.800 Screen you use your phone for. Everything that's going to 0:26:12.840 --> 0:26:14.600 take some getting used to for some, people but for 0:26:14.640 --> 0:26:17.199 others they, say, hey that's What i'm already.

Good oh, wow it's even starlink, 0:30:36.680 --> 0:30:39.720 compatible so you can put starlink in. THERE i would 0:30:39.720 --> 0:30:42.120 say for two hundred. Bucks this thing looks like it's pretty. 0:30:42.120 --> 0:30:45.680 GOOD i don't have any experience with, this but it 0:30:45.920 --> 0:30:48.280 so far seems like it has everything that you need 0:30:48.360 --> 0:30:51.520 for AN. Rv so it's gonna be much more of 0:30:51.640 --> 0:30:55.120 an integrated. Solution you know you're gonna. Be you're gonna 0:30:55.120 --> 0:30:57.600 have to pay someone probably to install, this and Then 0:30:57.680 --> 0:31:01.120 i'm guessing is there a monthly? Fee so you've got 0:31:01.200 --> 0:31:04.400 to you've got to just get the FIVE g service sold. Separately, 0:31:04.520 --> 0:31:07.800 okay four g, uh but you do get that over 0:31:07.880 --> 0:31:10.200 the air antenna as, well so you're getting everything all in. 0:31:10.320 --> 0:31:11.640 One what kind of R v were talking? 0:31:11.640 --> 0:31:14.520 ABOUT i can have a travel trailer at twenty six 0:31:14.600 --> 0:31:15.720 foot travel, trailer. 0:31:15.520 --> 0:31:17.640 Okay and you're trying to, add what's your main priority? 0:31:17.680 --> 0:31:19.680 Here is at THE tv or is at the internet? 0:31:19.720 --> 0:31:22.880 Signal, Well i'm going to be, retiring hopefully in a 0:31:22.920 --> 0:31:24.960 couple of, months and my wife AND i want to, 0:31:25.360 --> 0:31:29.280 travel but right, now we we when we, travel we'd 0:31:29.320 --> 0:31:32.680 stay at R rv resort somewhere it has power and 0:31:32.800 --> 0:31:36.280 water and sewer and. Stuff but WHEN i, Retire i'm 0:31:36.320 --> 0:31:38.960 not going to have the same kind of, cash so 0:31:39.080 --> 0:31:42.040 we're gonna have to be spending sometimes in in a 0:31:42.320 --> 0:31:45.560 state campgrounds and stuff that has nothing like boon. DOCKING 0:31:45.680 --> 0:31:49.440 i guess you would call. It so, okay you, know 0:31:49.640 --> 0:31:53.080 When i'm, out you, know just part, in you, know 0:31:53.200 --> 0:31:56.000 in a regular old. Campground you, Know i'd like to 0:31:56.080 --> 0:31:58.600 be able to you, know maybe turn MY tv on 0:31:58.800 --> 0:32:02.200 or my wife can send. Pictures, well here's. 0:32:02.000 --> 0:32:04.240 The, THING i, MEAN i THINK i think that this is. 0:32:04.640 --> 0:32:07.080 FINE i think, that to be, HONEST i think that you, 0:32:07.160 --> 0:32:11.320 know a lot of people are going with the streaming you, 0:32:11.400 --> 0:32:13.560 know like streaming internet for everything at this. Point so 0:32:13.640 --> 0:32:16.360 unless you're looking specifically to get over the air channels 0:32:16.400 --> 0:32:18.760 wherever you're, going which may or may not be the, 0:32:18.880 --> 0:32:22.120 case it might be easier to do something like A 0:32:22.200 --> 0:32:26.680 t mobile FIVE g home internet, box and that will 0:32:26.720 --> 0:32:28.479 be a lot easier because you can set it up 0:32:28.520 --> 0:32:31.800 everywhere you. Go it's about you, know starts at thirty 0:32:31.800 --> 0:32:34.280 five dollars a, month so it's not that expensive and 0:32:34.400 --> 0:32:35.960 it's not going to cost you a lot like. This 0:32:36.240 --> 0:32:39.200 you're talking this system that you're installing, here you, know 0:32:39.240 --> 0:32:41.600 and that's just the, antenna the top part that two hundred. 0:32:41.600 --> 0:32:44.680 Dollars then you've got to get a, gateway a FOUR 0:32:44.760 --> 0:32:46.800 g or FIVE g gateway if you want that thing 0:32:46.880 --> 0:32:49.760 to handle the internet. Connection that's another five three fifty 0:32:49.800 --> 0:32:52.000 to five hundred. Dollars so now you're up to about 0:32:52.840 --> 0:32:55.520 see three fifty four five about six hundred dollars just 0:32:55.600 --> 0:32:57.840 for the. Devices then you have to get it. Installed 0:32:58.280 --> 0:33:01.120 then you got to pay. Monthly so you're getting to 0:33:01.360 --> 0:33:04.880 a very expensive solution. Here AND i think it might 0:33:04.960 --> 0:33:07.560 be easier just to go with one of these Home 0:33:07.600 --> 0:33:10.400 internet boxes that you can just bring anywhere you plug and. 0:33:10.480 --> 0:33:12.920 Play it's going to pull in a signal and then 0:33:13.000 --> 0:33:15.040 you can use that as YOUR WiFi for your WHOLE 0:33:15.160 --> 0:33:19.640 rv and use STREAMING. Tv and there's a ton of 0:33:19.720 --> 0:33:21.800 free STREAMING tv you can. Watch you don't really have 0:33:21.880 --> 0:33:24.440 to worry about. THAT i think that's going to be 0:33:24.560 --> 0:33:26.920 a better solution for. YOU i would start with one of, 0:33:26.960 --> 0:33:29.120 those BECAUSE i don't know if these, THINGS i don't 0:33:29.160 --> 0:33:31.320 think they have a contract. 0:33:31.440 --> 0:33:32.600 NECESSARILY i have to check on. 0:33:32.680 --> 0:33:35.080 That but you know you've Got verizon AND T mobile 0:33:35.120 --> 0:33:37.680 are the two big companies that are pushing these these home, 0:33:37.800 --> 0:33:41.520 internet these wireless home internet. Boxes SO i THINK i 0:33:41.520 --> 0:33:44.240 would start with one of, those see how that works 0:33:44.280 --> 0:33:47.000 out for, you and then if none of that, works 0:33:47.200 --> 0:33:50.040 THEN i would go to one of these more you, 0:33:50.120 --> 0:33:52.400 know built in. Solutions but you're you're talking a lot 0:33:52.480 --> 0:33:56.440 of money to get started with this. Antenna so good, Question, 0:33:56.600 --> 0:33:59.840 Pat thanks for the. CALL i hope that helps appreciate. 0:33:59.880 --> 0:34:01.920 It eight eight Eight rich ONE o one eight eight 0:34:02.040 --> 0:34:05.640 eight seven four to two four one zero. One let's 0:34:05.680 --> 0:34:12.440 go To let's go To matthew And Marietta line. One matthew, There. 0:34:13.320 --> 0:34:16.759 Hi rich have a, question, sure wondering if you know 0:34:16.840 --> 0:34:20.600 anything about The Frontier communications nationwide. 0:34:20.680 --> 0:34:25.160 Outage i'm looking online at the nationwide outage for Front. 0:34:25.200 --> 0:34:29.239 Frontier i'm not seeing anything specific From. Frontier they do 0:34:29.400 --> 0:34:31.480 have a, okay let's see, here so let me put. 0:34:31.520 --> 0:34:34.239 In The frontier has a help page where you can 0:34:34.320 --> 0:34:37.480 put in your address and it can tell you if 0:34:37.520 --> 0:34:38.880 there is an outage in your. 0:34:38.960 --> 0:34:41.560 Area and So i'm looking and let's. See let's Just 0:34:41.600 --> 0:34:42.520 i'm gonna search real. 0:34:42.600 --> 0:34:46.239 Quick the thing with outages is that they come and, 0:34:46.360 --> 0:34:48.839 go and you, know they by the time you talk about, 0:34:48.880 --> 0:34:52.520 them they're already. Back So I'm i'm not seeing a 0:34:53.800 --> 0:34:57.720 nationally reported outage From, frontier so it could be a local. 0:34:57.840 --> 0:35:00.319 Thing there's a couple of ways you can. Check number, 0:35:00.320 --> 0:35:03.879 one there's two. WEBSITES i go to the first well 0:35:04.120 --> 0:35:06.279 And frontier has their. Own so if you go to 0:35:06.440 --> 0:35:10.680 A frontier check for service, outages Like frontier's, website you 0:35:10.719 --> 0:35:13.279 can type in your your physical address and it will 0:35:13.320 --> 0:35:16.080 tell you if there is a reported outage in your. 0:35:16.120 --> 0:35:19.840 Area if there's, not it's probably something that's locally happening 0:35:20.040 --> 0:35:22.399 with your router or with your. Setup so that's number. 0:35:22.400 --> 0:35:25.879 One then you can go to a website like downdetector dot. Com, 0:35:26.400 --> 0:35:28.560 now if you go to down, detector it does report 0:35:29.080 --> 0:35:34.120 That frontier folks are definitely registering some, issues but to 0:35:34.200 --> 0:35:36.680 be quite, honest it's not a. Lot you're talking like 0:35:36.800 --> 0:35:41.840 seventy three issues. Today that's not that many, reports SO 0:35:42.120 --> 0:35:46.520 i would look, there let's see. Here but people are reporting, 0:35:46.560 --> 0:35:49.640 it so there's Definitely i'm seeing reports of outages In Los, Angeles, 0:35:49.719 --> 0:35:54.319 Dallas Saint, Louis, Washington, Tampa. Okay and then the other 0:35:54.360 --> 0:35:57.839 website is down for everyone or just me dot com 0:35:58.520 --> 0:36:01.839 and they're, saying we're not detecting any problems With frontier right. 0:36:01.880 --> 0:36:04.560 Now so WHAT i would do is in the, meantime 0:36:05.200 --> 0:36:08.880 check out for sure That frontier outage. Website check for 0:36:08.960 --> 0:36:12.080 service outages at your. Address if it is, Out usually 0:36:12.120 --> 0:36:14.040 they fix these things pretty. Quickly it should tell you 0:36:14.120 --> 0:36:16.480 what the problem. Is OTHERWISE i would use the hotspot 0:36:16.520 --> 0:36:18.839 on your phone in the meantime or find some Free 0:36:19.080 --> 0:36:21.279 Wi fi to get that going.

Laptop for some, reason and this may be 0:41:13.320 --> 0:41:15.600 just the model that they sent me to, review the 0:41:15.680 --> 0:41:17.680 ONE i. Have for some, reason they ditched the touch 0:41:17.719 --> 0:41:21.239 screen on The snapdragon, version so that is something to look. 0:41:21.320 --> 0:41:25.040 For BUT i think that laptop is really really. Good 0:41:25.200 --> 0:41:28.600 so that's the number, one the a sus Zen BOOK a. Fourteen. 0:41:28.680 --> 0:41:32.279 Okay the other laptop That i've personally tested THAT i 0:41:32.400 --> 0:41:36.279 really like is called THE Hp omnibook five and that 0:41:36.440 --> 0:41:38.680 one also has A snapdragon and it does have a touch. 0:41:38.680 --> 0:41:41.800 SCREEN i really like that, One so you've got that 0:41:41.920 --> 0:41:45.680 one as. Well let me just make sure hold, ON 0:41:45.760 --> 0:41:48.320 i gotta confirm the touch. Screen you got to confirm 0:41:48.360 --> 0:41:50.359 with These snapdragons that they have the touch. Screen maybe 0:41:50.360 --> 0:41:52.040 there's something about it that they don't like it as 0:41:52.080 --> 0:41:54.719 much or it uses too much. Energy the other one 0:41:55.760 --> 0:41:57.799 is and this became highly recommended from one of our 0:41:57.840 --> 0:42:01.799 experts on the, Show Dan ackerman Of. Microcenter a couple months. 0:42:01.800 --> 0:42:04.799 Ago he said he really likes The Lenovo Idea pad, 0:42:05.000 --> 0:42:08.360 slim so that's another option. There and then if you 0:42:08.440 --> 0:42:10.640 want to go with kind of like you, know the 0:42:10.760 --> 0:42:15.279 best of the, best The Microsoft surface laptops or The 0:42:15.360 --> 0:42:17.759 Surface pro are going to be really good as. Well 0:42:18.239 --> 0:42:20.560 so those are the LAPTOPS i would recommend if you 0:42:20.640 --> 0:42:24.520 if you want that, quiet that quiet, laptop you have 0:42:24.719 --> 0:42:26.680 to go with A snapdragon because it's just not gonna 0:42:26.920 --> 0:42:28.680 some of these may not even need a, fan but 0:42:28.760 --> 0:42:30.120 some of them are just not going to fire up 0:42:30.160 --> 0:42:32.920 the fan as much because they're just not as power 0:42:33.040 --> 0:42:36.319 hungry as An intel processor or an AM A md. 0:42:36.480 --> 0:42:40.960 Processor the other place to look for these. DEALS i 0:42:41.080 --> 0:42:44.360 know you mentioned it's the, holidays everyone's looking for a laptop. 0:42:44.440 --> 0:42:47.080 Deal you got to go to slick, deals dot net 0:42:47.239 --> 0:42:50.600 slash laptop dash. Deals that is WHAT i look, for 0:42:51.280 --> 0:42:53.759 and this will this will give you all the laptops 0:42:53.800 --> 0:42:56.880 that people are finding that are excellent. Deals and so 0:42:57.040 --> 0:42:59.759 you can scroll through there and kind of go through 0:42:59.800 --> 0:43:02.680 and see what people are saying about these. Laptops the 0:43:02.800 --> 0:43:04.880 price that you, mentioned so if you wanted something that 0:43:05.000 --> 0:43:07.400 was like under nine hundred, dollars it sounded, like so 0:43:07.480 --> 0:43:09.600 you can go in there and filter by nine. Hundred 0:43:09.680 --> 0:43:12.040 AND i don't know why that filter doesn't work that. 0:43:12.120 --> 0:43:13.440 Well every TIME i put it in, there it doesn't 0:43:13.440 --> 0:43:17.440 work as. Well But i'm looking. Here you mentioned the 0:43:17.520 --> 0:43:21.840 thirty two versus sixteen gigabytes OF. RAM i would always 0:43:21.920 --> 0:43:24.960 go with MORE ram if you, can BECAUSE ram is 0:43:25.000 --> 0:43:28.360 what keeps your computer working really fast in the. Moment 0:43:28.920 --> 0:43:31.320 so the hard, DRIVE i would say one terabyte is 0:43:31.360 --> 0:43:33.560 going to be good for most. People that is where 0:43:33.600 --> 0:43:36.400 you store your stuff long, term but short, term THE 0:43:36.520 --> 0:43:37.959 ram really does all. 0:43:37.960 --> 0:43:38.480 Of the heavy. 0:43:38.520 --> 0:43:41.439 Lifting so the more that you can get in THE ram, 0:43:41.840 --> 0:43:43.920 department the better the computer is going to be at 0:43:43.960 --> 0:43:48.000 efficiency and staying cool and processing things. Fast so my 0:43:48.120 --> 0:43:51.880 computer has thirty two AND i think that works pretty. 0:43:51.920 --> 0:43:54.640 Well oh oh, gosh wait a, second mine only has twenty. 0:43:54.680 --> 0:43:57.120 Four i'm. SORRY i THOUGHT i got thirty two last, 0:43:57.160 --> 0:43:59.359 time BUT i GUESS i. Didn't maybe that's why it's slowing. 0:43:59.440 --> 0:44:03.120 Down so, yeah, anywhere the thirty two is going to 0:44:03.239 --> 0:44:05.120 probably be the best bet at this. Point but what 0:44:05.200 --> 0:44:08.600 your husband's doing on there is not completely memory. Intensive 0:44:08.840 --> 0:44:10.840 if you told me he was editing videos and photos 0:44:10.880 --> 0:44:14.960 all the, time, Sure but, again look for those Snap dragon. 0:44:15.000 --> 0:44:16.800 COMPUTERS i think those are going to be the. 0:44:16.880 --> 0:44:19.440 Best and just by the, way when you look at Those, 0:44:19.480 --> 0:44:24.040 snapdragons there are different levels of The snapdragon. Processor so 0:44:24.360 --> 0:44:27.800 just like they have the levels of processors for The 0:44:28.239 --> 0:44:33.319 intel and THE, amd there Are snapdragon. Versions so you've 0:44:33.400 --> 0:44:37.880 got The SNAPDRAGON, x THE x, plus then you have 0:44:38.120 --> 0:44:41.160 THE X elite and THE x Two. Elite so again 0:44:41.320 --> 0:44:43.680 the higher you, know you can just tell by the naming, 0:44:43.760 --> 0:44:46.960 convention The elite is going to be the. Best THE 0:44:47.200 --> 0:44:49.400 x two ely is going to be even. Better so 0:44:49.760 --> 0:44:53.000 just keep in mind those different levels of processors are 0:44:53.040 --> 0:44:55.080 not all the. Same THE x to ele is not 0:44:55.160 --> 0:44:57.000 available until next, year so at the top of the 0:44:57.080 --> 0:44:59.160 line right, now that X alee is going to be 0:44:59.239 --> 0:45:01.719 the high. End you may not need that for your 0:45:01.760 --> 0:45:05.040 husband's computer, needs but that's gonna be a pretty pretty good. 0:45:05.080 --> 0:45:10.839 System thanks for the call, Today. Tanya appreciate that good 0:45:10.920 --> 0:45:14.600 question during the. Holidays here other big news this, Week, 0:45:15.000 --> 0:45:19.960 Netflix this is just. Wild netflix is Buying Warner brothers 0:45:21.120 --> 0:45:26.120 eighty two billion dollar. DEAL i guess they. ARE i 0:45:26.160 --> 0:45:28.640 don't know. WHATEVER i don't understand the financial parts of, 0:45:28.719 --> 0:45:31.360 this BUT i guess it's like BETWEEN i don't know 0:45:31.440 --> 0:45:33.560 how to explain, it but it's seventy two billion to 0:45:33.640 --> 0:45:36.120 eighty two, billion whatever the numbers work. Out i'm not 0:45:36.200 --> 0:45:38.560 the numbers, guy but it's a lot of. Money So 0:45:38.719 --> 0:45:43.680 netflix canna Acquire Warner, Brothers Discovery, STUDIOS, hbo AND Hbo. 0:45:43.840 --> 0:45:48.319 Max they're gonna Keep Warner brothers operations, intact including its 0:45:48.600 --> 0:45:52.080 theatrical film. Releases that means they're still gonna put movies 0:45:52.120 --> 0:45:55.600 out in the. Theaters they're gonna get a ton a 0:45:55.719 --> 0:46:01.080 ton of, franchises INCLUDING, dc all the superhero, Stuff Harry, Potter, Friends, 0:46:01.160 --> 0:46:02.320 Sopranos game Of. 0:46:02.440 --> 0:46:05.480 Thrones that's all going Into, Netflix so this is going 0:46:05.520 --> 0:46:06.000 to be. Wild. 0:46:07.000 --> 0:46:10.160 Now netflix says the merger is going to give consumers 0:46:10.239 --> 0:46:14.839 more choice with deeper film AND tv catalogs plus continued global. Reach, 0:46:15.440 --> 0:46:19.040 okay that's what they're. Saying what does it really mean for? 0:46:19.120 --> 0:46:23.880 Consumers your prices are going. Up netflix is going to cost. 0:46:24.080 --> 0:46:27.280 More so take Whatever Warner brothers is charging for their streaming, 0:46:27.360 --> 0:46:30.719 SERVICE Hbo max and add that to the price Of. 0:46:30.800 --> 0:46:32.600 Netflix that's what you're going to be paying if they 0:46:32.880 --> 0:46:35.080 mix these two things, together which it sounds, like of 0:46:35.200 --> 0:46:38.240 course they're probably going to want to. Do the company 0:46:38.440 --> 0:46:41.560 projects two to three billion dollars in cost savings by 0:46:41.640 --> 0:46:44.600 year three and expects the deal to be profitable by year. 0:46:44.640 --> 0:46:47.040 Two now what does that. Mean that means people are 0:46:47.080 --> 0:46:47.440 going to get. 0:46:47.480 --> 0:46:50.040 Cut so anyone that's doing a job at both of 0:46:50.080 --> 0:46:53.040 these studios is probably going to be looking for a new. 0:46:53.160 --> 0:46:54.880 Job you. 0:46:54.960 --> 0:46:58.880 Know theater, owners according To Hollywood, reporter are already sounding the, 0:46:58.920 --> 0:47:01.560 alarm saying, that you, Know netflix does not like to 0:47:01.600 --> 0:47:02.120 put things in. 0:47:02.160 --> 0:47:03.520 Movie, theaters so that's a. 0:47:03.600 --> 0:47:08.239 Problem Uh as for regulatory, SCRUTINY i DON'T i don't 0:47:08.280 --> 0:47:08.759 see it being a. 0:47:08.800 --> 0:47:10.359 Problem this is gonna slide right, through. 0:47:10.440 --> 0:47:13.279 GUARANTEED i just don't see it being a problem because 0:47:13.320 --> 0:47:15.640 when you think about something Like Warner, brothers it is 0:47:15.719 --> 0:47:18.600 an old school company doing things in a very old school. 0:47:18.680 --> 0:47:21.200 Way netflix is a new school company doing things in 0:47:21.239 --> 0:47:23.799 a very new school.

HUGE i, mean this is this is a. 0:47:32.360 --> 0:47:35.800 Company netflix used to be laughed out of meetings with 0:47:36.000 --> 0:47:37.800 old school studios Like Warner. 0:47:37.840 --> 0:47:40.920 Brothers now they're buying.

Tanner, Okay so we're 0:48:54.160 --> 0:48:55.480 gonna have to get your thoughts on it in a 0:48:55.560 --> 0:48:59.600 little bit. Now if you're keeping track one plus skip 0:48:59.719 --> 0:49:03.000 the four fourteen and you know that now they're doing the. 0:49:03.040 --> 0:49:07.960 Fifteen so it's got this Latest Snapdragon Qualcomms snapdragon, processor 0:49:08.040 --> 0:49:10.080 so it's really. Fast you can video edit on, it 0:49:10.200 --> 0:49:13.120 you can game on. It The android, software WHICH i 0:49:13.200 --> 0:49:15.759 kind of poop pooed last, TIME i actually really, like 0:49:16.360 --> 0:49:20.800 so that grew on. Me it's got a solid, build 0:49:21.280 --> 0:49:24.359 high water and dust, resistance no wireless. Charge it does 0:49:24.440 --> 0:49:27.080 have wireless, charging but no. Magnets so if you wanted 0:49:27.160 --> 0:49:29.680 to get like the magnetic accessories on the, back you 0:49:29.680 --> 0:49:33.160 would have to get a case that has.

Thing 0:58:06.760 --> 0:58:09.600 you wake, up you literally roll over and you pick 0:58:09.680 --> 0:58:09.920 up your. 0:58:09.920 --> 0:58:11.959 Phone that's what you. Do that is WHAT i would. 0:58:11.960 --> 0:58:14.080 Say Now i'd be curious to Maybe i'll do a 0:58:14.120 --> 0:58:15.840 poll on My instagram to see what people. Say but, 0:58:15.960 --> 0:58:18.600 LIKE i feel like that's what the reality is for 0:58:18.760 --> 0:58:20.760 a lot Of, americans where you just get up and 0:58:20.840 --> 0:58:21.400 you look at your. 0:58:21.440 --> 0:58:25.120 Phone, YEAH i, meant get let's get real about. 0:58:25.120 --> 0:58:27.960 THIS i, mean it's not habit.

Harder which is why you, know 0:58:53.240 --> 0:58:58.720 using rule based approaches or you, know like giving yourselves, 0:58:58.840 --> 0:59:01.600 ultimatums it's not necessarily setting yourself up for. 0:59:01.720 --> 0:59:09.680 Success this really resonates with me.

Book but what 0:59:29.080 --> 0:59:32.240 do you think about? Boundaries will they actually work for 0:59:32.360 --> 0:59:34.760 people that feel like they need to be on twenty 0:59:34.760 --> 0:59:34.960 four to? 0:59:35.000 --> 0:59:38.120 Seven you, know people that are. 0:59:38.160 --> 0:59:45.120 High performers know that delivering that, product whatever it, is 0:59:45.480 --> 0:59:49.600 requires time and brain power and, attention and sometimes high 0:59:49.680 --> 0:59:53.760 performers have a real challenge carving out the time to 0:59:53.880 --> 0:59:56.800 get focused and do what they need to.

Important that should not be ringing my 1:01:15.760 --> 1:01:18.439 wrist in the middle of a conversation on a national radio. 1:01:18.480 --> 1:01:21.040 Show the early days of the, web when we fell 1:01:21.040 --> 1:01:23.160 in love AND i had an early social media, agency, 1:01:23.360 --> 1:01:26.919 like it was about, community bringing people, together doing things 1:01:26.960 --> 1:01:29.760 that could never have been done, before democratizing, media you, 1:01:29.840 --> 1:01:33.200 know connecting communities and people with similar interests across the. 1:01:33.240 --> 1:01:36.680 World but then it shifted from community building to attention, 1:01:36.800 --> 1:01:42.920 harvesting and the business model became monetizing that, attention and 1:01:43.840 --> 1:01:47.160 so training you and these apps train you to give 1:01:47.240 --> 1:01:50.440 them your. Attention and SO i think people are now 1:01:51.000 --> 1:01:54.760 becoming consciously aware of. That and there's behavioral research that's 1:01:54.800 --> 1:01:59.080 longitudinally about the damage. There so you, know people can 1:01:59.280 --> 1:02:02.360 make these changes in their. Lives they have, agency it 1:02:02.600 --> 1:02:06.080 just takes time and. Effort tell me about The, sundays 1:02:06.120 --> 1:02:09.200 the reset.

Site hundreds of people have given it to, 1:02:22.000 --> 1:02:24.440 us so we know their, motivation, confidence time of, day 1:02:24.520 --> 1:02:27.720 day of. Week sunday is the highest day FOR. Ready 1:02:28.200 --> 1:02:30.760 sunday is the day where people believe they can make 1:02:30.840 --> 1:02:32.840 all those changes in their lives that they want to. 1:02:32.880 --> 1:02:37.520 Make and on the highest times for ready are weekdays 1:02:37.960 --> 1:02:40.160 from like five to nine pm and a little bit 1:02:40.200 --> 1:02:43.520 in the.

Things kind, 1:02:50.920 --> 1:02:54.320 experiments think about ones that you can do between five 1:02:54.400 --> 1:02:57.200 to eight, pm and then give it a. Shot see 1:02:57.360 --> 1:02:59.920 how you. Do and it's not about success or. Failure 1:03:00.240 --> 1:03:03.680 what did you learn from those. Experiments but my advice 1:03:03.960 --> 1:03:07.560 start with stuff that's really small that you can guarantee 1:03:07.560 --> 1:03:09.720 you're going to be successful up because at the, beginning 1:03:10.080 --> 1:03:13.640 it's not about changing that. Relationship it's about building your 1:03:13.680 --> 1:03:16.080 confidence that you can do it, right bit by. 1:03:16.200 --> 1:03:19.440 Bit AND i love you know you mentioned also low tech, 1:03:19.560 --> 1:03:22.080 swaps you, know LIKE i really AND i know kindle 1:03:22.120 --> 1:03:23.800 is still high, tech BUT i love reading on My 1:03:23.960 --> 1:03:27.040 kindle because it's not an iPad and it's not my, 1:03:27.200 --> 1:03:28.800 phone which have the same type of. 1:03:28.880 --> 1:03:30.720 Screen The kindle to me is like a. 1:03:30.800 --> 1:03:33.120 Book AND i REALLY i find that WHEN i do 1:03:33.240 --> 1:03:35.200 stuff like, that WHEN i kind of disconnect and just 1:03:35.360 --> 1:03:38.280 read it, all it's just it's so weird how in 1:03:38.360 --> 1:03:40.439 today's day and, age that feels like you're doing something 1:03:40.560 --> 1:03:42.600 so good for, yourself, right something as simple as just 1:03:42.680 --> 1:03:43.000 reading a. 1:03:43.040 --> 1:03:44.840 Book i'm totally with. 1:03:44.960 --> 1:03:47.040 You you, Know i'm a high tech. 1:03:47.120 --> 1:03:47.920 GUY i love. 1:03:48.040 --> 1:03:51.080 MUSIC i GOT.

Stereos And i've looked 1:07:23.880 --> 1:07:26.080 on the internet And i've seen a few different you, 1:07:26.160 --> 1:07:29.720 know things you can, do but it doesn't really say 1:07:29.760 --> 1:07:30.920 which one gives. 1:07:30.720 --> 1:07:31.240 You the best. 1:07:31.360 --> 1:07:34.920 Quality the best, sound AND i was wondering if you'd 1:07:34.960 --> 1:07:36.000 give me some insight on. 1:07:36.120 --> 1:07:39.960 That, okay, well there's a lot of ways you can do, this, 1:07:40.080 --> 1:07:42.480 obviously there's so. MANY i, mean there's you, know you 1:07:42.520 --> 1:07:45.720 can Connect sonos to these. Things you can do you, 1:07:45.800 --> 1:07:48.160 know there's a new thing that just came out out Of. 1:07:48.240 --> 1:07:52.680 Sweden let's see. Here it is the MY i haven't 1:07:52.680 --> 1:07:54.680 gotten it, yet but they just they're sending one to 1:07:54.760 --> 1:07:59.240 me to test. Out it's The atonamo Stream. Player and 1:07:59.480 --> 1:08:03.400 this is sort of a little box that connects your, 1:08:03.520 --> 1:08:05.840 products like you're talking. About so it's like an audio 1:08:05.920 --> 1:08:08.840 streaming device that you can pair and you, know connect speakers. 1:08:08.960 --> 1:08:13.760 Wirelessly you can plug in via cable to your speaker 1:08:13.840 --> 1:08:14.800 and then connect it to your home. 1:08:14.880 --> 1:08:18.160 Network but that that one is more Like. 1:08:18.360 --> 1:08:20.519 Google it has all the different things built in Like, 1:08:20.640 --> 1:08:25.840 Spotify Title, Connect Google Cast, airplay which you could then 1:08:26.439 --> 1:08:30.320 use from your laptop to the device and the device 1:08:30.320 --> 1:08:32.400 would connect to your. Speaker so that's one way of going. 1:08:32.439 --> 1:08:34.200 About But i've not tested, it SO i can't tell 1:08:34.200 --> 1:08:36.160 you how good it. Is but that's about one hundred. 1:08:36.160 --> 1:08:40.640 Dollars the thing THAT i think is probably going to 1:08:40.720 --> 1:08:45.000 be the best for what you need is called the 1:08:45.120 --> 1:08:50.200 whim wiim and this is a device that is basically 1:08:51.040 --> 1:08:55.200 meant to do what you're talking. About so they have 1:08:55.400 --> 1:08:59.080 so many if you go to their website whim home Wiim, 1:08:59.280 --> 1:09:03.599 home they have so many little devices here that will 1:09:03.640 --> 1:09:05.519 do pretty much what you. Need and it's kind of 1:09:05.600 --> 1:09:08.680 like that that RECEIVER i just, mentioned but it's got 1:09:08.680 --> 1:09:10.320 a lot of inputs on the, back so you can 1:09:10.960 --> 1:09:13.800 connect your computer if you want your. Laptop but again 1:09:13.840 --> 1:09:18.519 it Does, Spotify, Airplay alexa, Cast, Title Google, cast and some. 1:09:18.680 --> 1:09:22.280 Others so once you connect these to your, system you, 1:09:22.320 --> 1:09:25.160 know you would basically connect your, system set it up 1:09:25.200 --> 1:09:27.640 however you, want your old school, system and then you 1:09:27.680 --> 1:09:30.360 would connect one of these little devices to, it and 1:09:30.800 --> 1:09:33.479 then your computer would connect to this device in any. 1:09:33.520 --> 1:09:36.200 Way you can connect to hard, cable or you can 1:09:36.240 --> 1:09:40.360 connect via all these different. Services the whim if you 1:09:40.439 --> 1:09:42.320 look on the back of it has all the different 1:09:42.720 --> 1:09:44.200 sort of inputs and outputs that you. 1:09:44.360 --> 1:09:47.280 Need i'm looking at the streamcast. ONE i got to. 1:09:47.320 --> 1:09:49.760 See let me see if that one says what kind of. 1:09:49.800 --> 1:09:54.040 Connections it HAS USB c power. Input it's got analog, 1:09:54.120 --> 1:09:56.920 output so as long as you could use that analog 1:09:57.000 --> 1:09:58.800 output to your your. 1:09:59.400 --> 1:10:01.479 Stereos you'd be able to use one of. 1:10:01.520 --> 1:10:03.880 These this one's ninety nine. Dollars that one's brand new 1:10:04.240 --> 1:10:07.320 just is coming. Out the Whim i'm looking at is 1:10:07.960 --> 1:10:10.960 one hundred and fifty. Dollars so AND i have had 1:10:11.000 --> 1:10:14.080 PEOPLE i haven't personally used, this But i've had other 1:10:14.160 --> 1:10:15.960 people that have told me that they, have and they 1:10:16.040 --> 1:10:17.559 wrote in on the show and they said they love. 1:10:17.640 --> 1:10:21.360 It so the other option is A. Sonos they used 1:10:21.360 --> 1:10:24.679 to make a device that would allow you to connect 1:10:25.600 --> 1:10:27.920 old school, systems AND i don't know if they do that. 1:10:27.960 --> 1:10:33.479 Anymore let's see if they still make those. Components let's. See, 1:10:33.520 --> 1:10:36.360 okay they. Do so they've got what's called THE poor 1:10:37.000 --> 1:10:40.880 which is The Network Audio, streamer and so that's a 1:10:40.960 --> 1:10:43.040 similar product to WHAT i was just talking about From, 1:10:43.120 --> 1:10:48.040 sonos and that will connect your stereo system into The sonos. 1:10:48.120 --> 1:10:52.040 System and so the difference there is that this is 1:10:52.120 --> 1:10:56.280 more for someone who wants to Use sono speakers instead 1:10:56.320 --> 1:10:59.400 of you, know the system that you're talking. About SO 1:10:59.439 --> 1:11:01.840 i probably recommend that that's five hundred, dollars but it's 1:11:01.880 --> 1:11:05.040 just another. Option it, says bring The sono's experience to 1:11:05.040 --> 1:11:08.840 your existing stereo or receiver and enjoy endless possibilities for 1:11:08.960 --> 1:11:11.960 multi room. Listening so you connect this port to your you, 1:11:12.040 --> 1:11:14.720 know traditional audio, equipment and then you stream all that 1:11:14.880 --> 1:11:19.240 stuff to Your sono. Speaker so that's if you're going 1:11:19.280 --> 1:11:21.519 to go The sonos. Route but, again as you can See, 1:11:21.560 --> 1:11:23.880 howard there are so many ways to do, this BUT 1:11:24.080 --> 1:11:27.439 i think what you want to do is probably check 1:11:27.479 --> 1:11:30.320 out the whim, first see if that's going to do. 1:11:30.400 --> 1:11:31.880 It if, not if you want to take a chance 1:11:31.920 --> 1:11:34.320 on this new thing From, sweden you can then check 1:11:34.360 --> 1:11:37.120 out this, uh you, know this stream player and see 1:11:37.160 --> 1:11:38.840 if that does what you. Need i'm trying to look 1:11:38.920 --> 1:11:42.960 and see what the connections are on the back and 1:11:43.320 --> 1:11:45.400 let's see IF i can see this. Thing, yeah SINCE 1:11:45.400 --> 1:11:47.479 i haven't really tested it just, YET i can't give 1:11:47.479 --> 1:11:49.920 you all the, details but it looks like just off 1:11:50.000 --> 1:11:53.120 the top of my head here the whim has much 1:11:53.200 --> 1:11:56.720 more connection, options whereas the stream player has just that 1:11:56.880 --> 1:11:59.880 three point five millimeter analog and it says. 1:12:00.320 --> 1:12:04.880 Output so there you, go.

You the 1:15:54.880 --> 1:15:59.880 best ADVICE i got from your predecessor was AFTER i, 1:16:00.160 --> 1:16:04.439 RETIRED i didn't need a computer, anymore a desktop or a, 1:16:04.560 --> 1:16:09.840 laptop and he pointed me towards get A. Chromebook and 1:16:10.479 --> 1:16:13.720 it has been absolutely done EVERYTHING i needed it to. 1:16:13.840 --> 1:16:16.360 DO i, MEAN i didn't have to do any high 1:16:16.400 --> 1:16:21.960 powered spreadsheets or presentations or anything like. That my question 1:16:22.240 --> 1:16:26.280 is is there a lifespan on The. CHROMEBOOK i seem 1:16:26.320 --> 1:16:28.720 to recall somebody saying something. 1:16:28.640 --> 1:16:33.960 About that there, is and you can check so on Your. 1:16:34.080 --> 1:16:39.519 Yeah So google actually extended The chromebook. Updates so the 1:16:39.600 --> 1:16:41.639 way they do this is they support it with, updates, 1:16:41.680 --> 1:16:44.880 right and you already know that The chromebook in, general you, 1:16:44.960 --> 1:16:47.559 know they're not as high powered as you know your 1:16:47.640 --> 1:16:51.040 typical laptops out. There but what they do is they're 1:16:51.240 --> 1:16:56.080 very secure and they stay safe because there's really no. 1:16:56.240 --> 1:16:58.080 Virus there's ACTUALLY i don't think there's Any you can't 1:16:58.080 --> 1:17:01.360 get a virus on A. Chromebook and the software updates are. 1:17:01.360 --> 1:17:04.599 Automatic they're in the, background so there's no lengthy software 1:17:04.680 --> 1:17:07.240 updates like. This Whole windows, ten you log On windows 1:17:07.280 --> 1:17:08.960 eleven and it's, like, hey can you do you mind 1:17:09.040 --> 1:17:11.320 restarting your. Computer now they tell you how many minutes 1:17:11.360 --> 1:17:13.400 it's gonna, take which is, nice but you, know it 1:17:13.520 --> 1:17:15.200 used to be, like, OH i don't really want to 1:17:15.240 --> 1:17:17.040 restart my computer BECAUSE i have no idea how long 1:17:17.080 --> 1:17:18.680 it's going to take for this computer to come back to. 1:17:18.760 --> 1:17:21.439 Life and the other, day by the, WAY i restarted 1:17:21.439 --> 1:17:24.519 a computer at. Work it just, died like straight up 1:17:24.640 --> 1:17:26.720 died while it was. Restarting AND i was, like wait. 1:17:27.439 --> 1:17:29.840 This i'm like looking around for the hidden. Camera i'm, 1:17:29.840 --> 1:17:31.760 like did this really just happen to? Me and sure 1:17:31.840 --> 1:17:33.800 ENOUGH i had to call the, engineers which is embarrassing 1:17:33.880 --> 1:17:36.880 for a tech, guy, Right and that was, like, wait 1:17:36.960 --> 1:17:38.719 AM i right in? This like, yeah this thing literally 1:17:38.840 --> 1:17:42.240 died while it was. Restarting so, ANYWAY i tell you 1:17:42.280 --> 1:17:44.160 all that because there are a couple things to. Know Number, 1:17:44.200 --> 1:17:48.719 one chromebooks are good for ten years of automatic. Updates, 1:17:48.760 --> 1:17:51.160 okay so when you get A, chromebook it will last 1:17:51.240 --> 1:17:54.559 for ten, years, safety security, wise all that kind of. Stuff, 1:17:54.560 --> 1:17:57.519 NOW i can't say that the physical chromebook is going 1:17:57.600 --> 1:17:59.400 to last for ten years if you knock it around or. 1:17:59.439 --> 1:18:01.840 Whatever and also the speed of The, chromebook you, KNOW 1:18:01.920 --> 1:18:04.240 i can't guarantee it's gonna be perfect after ten, years 1:18:04.320 --> 1:18:07.439 but they do support them for ten years. Now if 1:18:07.479 --> 1:18:10.760 you've got a device prior to twenty twenty, one they 1:18:11.040 --> 1:18:14.720 will still get extended, updates but not every feature will be. 1:18:14.760 --> 1:18:17.559 Supported So google is really pushing a lot of THESE 1:18:17.600 --> 1:18:20.479 ai features. Lately if you have an Older, chromebook it 1:18:20.520 --> 1:18:22.800 may still get all the security, updates it may not 1:18:22.920 --> 1:18:26.639 get all of the LATEST ai. Updates so just understand 1:18:26.680 --> 1:18:29.719 that whatever you, buy when you get your Your, chromebook 1:18:29.960 --> 1:18:32.280 it gets ten years of automatic. Updates And i'm guessing 1:18:32.640 --> 1:18:35.360 that is from the time that The chromebook is, made 1:18:35.439 --> 1:18:37.120 not when you buy. It, right if you buy A 1:18:37.400 --> 1:18:39.240 chromebook that's three years, old you're not going to still 1:18:39.240 --> 1:18:39.519 get ten. 1:18:39.600 --> 1:18:40.840 Years so here's how you. 1:18:41.000 --> 1:18:41.200 Check. 1:18:41.400 --> 1:18:45.360 John this is where you go on Your chromebook near the. 1:18:45.479 --> 1:18:46.720 Time you will see. 1:18:46.800 --> 1:18:51.719 Settings, okay so you go to settings and then About 1:18:51.920 --> 1:18:55.080 CHROME os and then once you go, there you Tap 1:18:55.200 --> 1:18:59.639 Additional details and in the update schedule section you will 1:18:59.680 --> 1:19:03.000 see when Your chromebook will receive its last. Update its 1:19:03.080 --> 1:19:06.000 kind of its final resting, update so it tells you 1:19:06.600 --> 1:19:10.479 the end. Date it's kind of, sad tells you when 1:19:10.520 --> 1:19:13.800 This chromebook will. Die so it's not going to die 1:19:13.880 --> 1:19:15.479 on that, day it's just not going to get any 1:19:15.520 --> 1:19:18.960 more updates after that. Time so, again settings About Chrome 1:19:19.000 --> 1:19:23.360 os additional details in the update schedule. Section look at 1:19:23.439 --> 1:19:26.519 when you'll see Your chromebook will get its final. Update 1:19:27.080 --> 1:19:29.080 so if you have A, chromebook that's probably something good 1:19:29.160 --> 1:19:32.960 to check because that will help you plan for a New. 1:19:33.080 --> 1:19:37.240 Chromebook that, way you're not you, know struggling or scrambling 1:19:37.680 --> 1:19:39.920 to get a New chromebook right off the bat as 1:19:40.000 --> 1:19:43.160 soon as you need.

It and 1:34:06.280 --> 1:34:09.439 so largely WHEN i saw, IT i was, like, oh 1:34:09.640 --> 1:34:12.240 there's going to be another kind of round of deep 1:34:12.360 --> 1:34:16.280 fakes that, appear and you, know no doubt that's exactly 1:34:16.360 --> 1:34:16.599 what has. 1:34:16.600 --> 1:34:19.840 HAPPENED i, mean, so what do you think about people 1:34:20.000 --> 1:34:23.400 putting in their information to this This sora number? One like, 1:34:23.479 --> 1:34:26.000 there you, know if you're not a, celebrity, right LIKE i, 1:34:26.080 --> 1:34:28.479 mean if you're just like a regular, Person you're, Like, 1:34:28.479 --> 1:34:29.800 okay what DO i have to, lose Like i'll JUST 1:34:30.200 --> 1:34:31.840 i want to see myself on a roller. COASTER i 1:34:31.880 --> 1:34:34.640 want to see myself meeting you, know the president of. 1:34:34.840 --> 1:34:38.040 Whatever you, know, like is there a problem there or 1:34:38.400 --> 1:34:40.240 is it just the celebrities have to be. 1:34:40.360 --> 1:34:43.800 Concerned, well what we do when we talk to you, 1:34:43.880 --> 1:34:46.200 know open ay team and, others we really promote a 1:34:46.280 --> 1:34:49.360 third party as someone that can monitor and have control 1:34:49.400 --> 1:34:51.240 over it so you can revoke it at any. Time 1:34:51.600 --> 1:34:53.639 but right, now the way it's set, up it's even 1:34:53.680 --> 1:34:55.840 if you're just you, know the average show like me 1:34:56.000 --> 1:34:57.280 or you and we're going, on we just want to 1:34:57.720 --> 1:34:59.760 put it into the system to have some funny video 1:34:59.800 --> 1:35:03.040 made of. Us you're turning over a lot of biometric 1:35:03.200 --> 1:35:05.880 data that is going to be very, hard maybe even 1:35:05.880 --> 1:35:10.240 impossible to ever get. Back so you, know we we 1:35:10.360 --> 1:35:12.720 of course have this really strong narrative around someone else 1:35:12.760 --> 1:35:14.720 should be the one that monitors it so you can 1:35:14.800 --> 1:35:16.080 put it in and pull it out of the market 1:35:16.080 --> 1:35:18.519 whenever you. Want and then then you bring that thing 1:35:18.680 --> 1:35:21.519 that kind of connect your third party to an OPEN 1:35:21.560 --> 1:35:24.400 ai type.
