I'm saying, no, Willem, not William. Every other day, probably. Probably. All right, that's just the move. My movie rating scale is now back to being pinned at the top of my Twitter profile. Oh, there you go. Thanks to Thrumwold for finding the tweet. He was doing it to give to Flower in the Discord. But yeah, now it's there for everyone to see. He made no other movies that I know, this director. So, Sarah, I'm going to not see Affliction, although. Or do and, you know, tell me if I'm crazy. Who knows. Who's on this show tomorrow? I forgot. Nobody. Just kidding. Allison, Allison, I'm sure it is. Man, well, OK, so we definitely need to get people to write about Tesla. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. Good. Good. It's a good one. All right, are you guys ready to go? Oh, wait, wrong show. Yeah, don't play that one. Not here. I like people like I don't think Tom can do a political punditry show. He's too neutral. He's too nice, which I think is hilarious because Justin's always pretty even-handed. But I don't know. You tell me. Go listen. All right, I'm in. Judge. Well, you know. OK, you can talk about politics without taking a firm side all the time. Hold on. I'll be right back. Ray's trying to open the door. Oh, yeah.  My poor dog is he's under the weather. He's not even in his cage. Very unusual for him. Yeah. We were we were taken at emergency walk at 2 30 in the morning. Oh, I know.  He's just he just has these he has these bouts of just upset Tom, you know. And I know that I know the sound in the middle of the night like first of all, I can't sleep through it, you know, right of the whimper. But also if he has to go out, I'm not going to force him to stay as great. Yeah, you got it.  I put an image from a fliction in the slack right now. Just to just to just to see what conjures up to afflict you additionally, I guess is what I've done. Yeah, I don't I may I don't know. I could see it. Kind of want to I think he's a fine actor. He is. I like I like him. The older he gets and the crazier his hair is, the more I like him and roles. Right. I don't know what that means or why, but this would have been 97 was right around the time he was having like his severe drug issues. So maybe that's part of why this. Yeah. And as I recall, I think the movie's kind of about, you know, some about somebody sort of descending into something that's right. It might be getting political. Oh, yeah, I see. Let's see how it goes. Well, these dogs, you can never tell. Never know how they're going to vote. What do you try to say about people who don't know how they're going to vote? Oh, no, dogs. I'm going to get us a a person to thank at the top of the show. And then we can get going. Sounds good to me. Her name is Judy. Be like Judy. Damn, Judy. Dinch. Damn. All right. Here we go.

This is the Daily Tech News for Wednesday, May 22nd, 2019 in Los Angeles. I'm Tom Merritt. And from Studio Feline, I'm Sarah Lane. In Salt Lake City, where we had hail today, I'm Scott Johnson. From underneath, overcast guys on the show's producer Roger Chang. We are going to talk about robots today. That's right. We do have some wall-way news to update you on. But I'm much more excited about robots. Not only robots, but please tell our friend Bonnie Burton we'll be talking about googly eyes in relation to robots. Mm-hmm. It's going to be good. Let's start with a few tech things you should know. Ooya's hardware was discontinued when Razor bought the company back in 2015. And Razor announced Wednesday that online services for Ooya and Forge TV services will shut down at the end of June. I've got a paperweight for sale. Yes, you do with a terrible controller connected to it. Where'd Tom go? Oh, he's right there. Now the now Steam Chat mobile app is now free on iOS and Android. The app has many features the Steam client desktop chat has including group chats, customizable notifications and invite links. Valve is asking for feedback on the app and that other features like voice chat are in the works. That would be great. US District Court Judge Lucy Coe in San Jose, California has ruled that Qualcomm's licensing practices quote, strangled competition unquote. Judge Coe ordered Qualcomm to renegotiate licensing agreements at reasonable prices and refrain from threatening to cut off supplies. That would be good. The judge ordered monitoring to ensure compliance. Qualcomm will seek a quick appeal to the federal appeals court. As opposed to a really long appeal. Takes a while. Microsoft's Windows 10 May 2019 update is available for download rolling out over the next few weeks to those with automatic updates on. You can also check Windows Update to see if yours is available. Start it that way. Or you can download the ISO directly from Microsoft and download it manually. The update includes a new light theme, a Windows sandbox feature for safely running executable files, the ability to pause OS updates, password list login and the separation of Cortana and search among others. All right, let's talk a little, let's check in on Huawei. I have a feeling we'll probably be over big new Huawei updates next week. The June 28th is the next big trade summit that'll involve China and the United States. So I expect things to calm down. But for now, the BBC reporting, SoftBank owned UK chip designer Arm. Yeah, Arm, that Arm told staff it must suspend business with Huawei because its designs contain US originated technology. Arm is a UK company. It's owned by a Japanese company, but it uses technology that comes from its US Arm. Get it? And it has offices in the United States. So it has determined, well, we have to cut off Huawei. If you haven't been following this, the US has restricted domestic companies from doing business with Huawei. Though there is a 90 day temporary license that has eased those restrictions somewhat, there's a little variability about how people are interpreting that. Arm, if you don't know how it works, licenses designs for processors. And those licenses are used for the processors in the majority of mobile phones, including Huawei's own Kirin processor. So Qualcomm, that's an Arm processor. iPhone, that's an Arm processor, even though it comes from Apple, they're using Arm license. And Huawei's own processors, they could say like, well, we'll just make the processor ourself, also an Arm license. So Huawei can continue to make its existing chips, but it cannot get assistance from Arm in implementing designs and would be prevented from using Arm to develop new chips. Huawei told Reuters, it's confident that the situation can be resolved. Adding misery to misery, Vodafone told The Verge, it is temporarily pausing pre-orders for the Huawei Mate 20X 5G, which is meant for Vodafone's forthcoming 5G services. Likewise, UK carrier EE saying it will also not launch the Mate 20X 5G for its 5G network until it can assure long-term usability. Huawei has a temporary license from the US to get access to security updates from Google until August 19th. After that, it would have to wait until the updates show up as part of the Android open source project, which would cause delays. Japanese mobile carriers announced delays to the launch of Huawei phones on their networks earlier this week. So. Right, yeah, from one hand, you're like, boy, this story just gets worse for Huawei day after day. Companies pulling out left and right. Huawei has said for the record, we anticipated something like this would happen. We're working on our own OS. We're not really all that concerned. So, you know, it's kind of like, yeah, at this point, is it still, you know, does Huawei any more concerned than they were two days ago? I mean, they're not going to say that because they need their stockholders and investors and customers to relax. There's already stories, Technasia had a story today about some Filipino and Singapore trade-in companies declining to buy back Huawei phones because they're like, we don't really know what's going to happen with those. So it's going to undermine confidence in the marketplace and they have to do everything they can to counter that. Sure. Yeah, I guess my question is just, it's sort of like, how much could the company on the inside be like, this is really bad for us? Let's fire up that OS and see where we're at. Well, that takes a lot of work. And now building your chipset just got even more difficult because you can't use the ARM design that everybody else uses. So really this is out of Huawei's hands, to be honest. They can do what they can do and hope that this doesn't end up lasting more than that three months that they supposedly have parts stockpiled and hope it gets resolved soon so that they don't have to worry about declining sales just because of confusion in the marketplace in general. Tom said something this morning on TMS on your segment that it also affected some other products. I had brought up their line of notebooks which are relatively popular. People think they're some of the nicer Windows notebooks made certainly by Huawei, but you had said even that is a bit of a sticky. Yeah, Intel can't sell to Huawei to make new laptops and Microsoft hasn't said anything about Windows but they took that laptop out of the Microsoft store. Yeah, see, they didn't expect that. No one expects Microsoft to take you out of their store. Well, we did this time. The latest version of Teslas Navigate on autopilot feature which arrived on April 3rd, lets cars, owners rather who are in the cars who purchased enhanced autopilot or full self-driving capability automatically change lanes for what the company calls more seamless driving, more seamless experience. Driver has to turn it on first so it's not gonna happen unless you opt in and then can cancel an automated lane change in progress by using the turn signal or braking or holding the steering wheel in place. But Consumer Reports says that its own test found that the feature cut off cars without leaving enough space, that could be dangerous, also passed on the right and failed to return to the right lane after a pass which violates state law in Connecticut. Consumer Reports, Jake Fisher says, it doesn't react to brake lights or turn signals adding monitoring the system is much harder than just changing lanes yourself. Using the system is like monitoring a kid behind the wheel for the very first time. So not a good report, not a good review. I do not own a Tesla. I have a car that has some semi-itonymous features. I've talked about it in past shows. For something like parking where it's gonna be pretty tight spot and I just don't feel like doing the parallel thing myself works great. That is at a very, very low speeds, almost nothing. If we're talking about passing cars on a freeway and you're going back into a lane and basically cutting somebody off, that doesn't sound so good. Yeah, they make a big deal about like, does illegal maneuvers, and then they explain that the legal maneuvers are passing on the right, which I mean, in Los Angeles, I think we snicker at that because if you couldn't pass on the right lane, Yeah, you just pass where you can pass. Never go anywhere. And then returning to the right after a lane change, I remember when I moved to Texas, nobody did that in Texas. I was so annoyed by that until I got used to it. Those don't seem particularly awful and Tesla says, look, it's up to you. You have to guide the car. So if you're in Connecticut, don't let your car do that. If you're somewhere else, maybe it's okay. But the stuff about cutting off cars too quickly, that seems like an issue. And I know Tesla's saying, you should always be monitoring what your car does. This isn't meant to be a self-driving car feature. It's meant to be an assist. That's okay until Jake Fisher tells me like, yeah, monitoring this is more difficult than not using it. I'm like, well, then that's not a feature that's ready to be used. That's the problem I have with so much of the stuff is, and the automakers, they make it very clear, like in my car, if I'm staying within my lane, which is a feature and my hands aren't on the wheel for like 20 seconds or something, there's some, it's 20 or 30, the car will just be like, well, I'm not doing this anymore because you're not following the rules. And it's a little annoying because you're sort of like, well, I could just drive right here. I know how to do it. So sometimes I struggle with this thing that's supposed to like change the way that we all drive and allow us to breathe a little bit more easily. And I don't know, look at the window, but this particular feature sounds, yeah, like it's got some work to do. Well, Atari is showing off a joystick and controller for its retro VCS console. So when you're not driving, put these in your hands. They plan to have it finished up, the entire device and the controllers before the end of the year. If you think the Atari Classic CX40 joystick, which it was known as back in the day, you all know it, this old joystick for the Atari 2600. Well, then get excited because one of the controllers is a slightly modernized version of that. We'll also have Bluetooth USB connectivity, that sort of stuff, but it's essentially the CX40. The VCS modern controller follows the basic template of other popular controllers in terms of button layout, analog sticks, got a D pads, got shoulder buttons. Both the classic and the modern controllers are remappable. They wanted to make sure people knew that. That seems to be important to some. Anyway, the Atari VCS says the hardware is almost ready for final production and will match previous statements that the console will be ready by the end of 2019. We still don't have a date, we don't have a month.  Did I read this right that the joystick will also rotate so you can use it as a paddle? Yes, that is supposedly correct. Obviously nobody's had any hands on with this yet, so we can't really confirm it. There were some stuff showed at GDC, just some closed door stuff, but nothing really came out of that. But yeah, for things like Pong and other paddle-based, I guess, I can't think of any others at the moment, but yeah, Arcanoi, there you go. Paddle-based games should be supportable, so that's cool. It's not like an extra controller you'd have to get. But the modern controller is interesting in the sense that if it's a good one, I'm a big fan of Bluetooth, kind of standards-compliant wireless controllers because I like to use them in other places. So this may seem like kind of an odd thing, but I wanna try that thing out on a PC because I like a good controller as it translates to how well it would play on a PC. I use a PS4 controller on a PC right now. Sometimes I use an Xbox One controller and an Xbox 360 controller. I kinda swap them around depending on the game I'm playing. So that's of interest to me, but if you have been sitting there going, man, freaking Nintendo is having all the fun with these classic controllers and Sony tried but it wasn't that great and I guess the Genesis is having something come. If you're thinking Atari deserves its day in the sun, well, you're gonna finally see it. And this is especially notable for those who backed this thing. I believe it was an Indiegogo campaign, not Kickstarter, but backed it all that time ago and it become a kind of, I don't know, impatient with news and updates. This is as close as you're gonna get for a big piece of news and update and it should be out this fall. Yeah, you know, Roger, you were saying before the show that as nostalgic as this joystick is, it's really not all that great. Well, I was never a fan of the original Atari 2600 joystick. It was really stiff. And when you got sweaty palms, you kinda slipped a little bit and it was a little too short. I mean, it's cool. I do like the fact that that form factor does lend itself to being left or right-handed as opposed to a game pad where you got the analogs typically on the left or right, but the D-pad is on the left. I'm gonna save my criticisms until it comes, there's a physical product out and I can more professionally ridicule it. Yeah. I don't understand neutral. This device makes some promises that need to be seen before I will agree that it can do what it says it's gonna do, like play a host of modern exclusive games. There's a lot of talk about it being way underpowered for that or maybe secretly overpowered. Like there's just a lot we don't know. It's kind of a mystery box and it's not really Atari who's doing it. It's just a licensing thing and it's just a weird thing. So, you know, time will tell. We'll see. All but the largest Apple device resellers have vanished like in thin air from Amazon's marketplace, six months after Apple and Amazon made a deal which requires companies that wanna sell Apple products through Amazon to do a couple of things. They have to purchase at least $2.5 million worth of refurbished inventory every 90 days from either Apple itself or through a retailer with more than $5 billion in annual sales that would be like a target or a Walmart. The company also has to reach out directly to Apple to become an authorized reseller. Although Apple hasn't really said, at least not publicly, what those seller requirements are but to become an Apple authorized provider of repairs requires a physical retail space. So, this is one of those things where it's about abuse. This is a great example of testing whether someone is abusing their market position because if you take Amazon's name out of this and say, okay, there's a retailer who has decided that they are only going to resell, they have a marketplace and they're gonna only allow people to resell Apple stuff on Apple's terms. They've made a deal with Apple and Apple's like, hey, we'll sell a bunch of things through your store as long as you abide by these rules as far as letting other people sell. In fact, a lot of times in retail situations, a company may say, look, you will only get this product from us. You won't be able to sell it from anyone else. So in some sense, what Amazon's doing has always been more progressive than a lot of other retailers. But then when you take back into consideration, however, Amazon has quite an outsized influence on the marketplace, particularly for electronics, then it starts to feel like, wait a minute, Apple seems to be driving people out of the marketplace so it can dominate the resale of refurbished units and direct money into its coffers at the expense of smaller business people. Yeah, they basically sell everything twice or at least that's the thing that's being levied against them. Have you guys never gotten anything like refurbished or secondhand stuff off of? Absolutely. I've done that before, I guess. I've done it many, many a time, not just through Apple. I've gotten open box stuff off of Best Buy, I've gotten refurbished TVs. It's a great way to go because to sell it as refurbished, it has to carry the same guarantees as new. Right, I just guess I've never done it. I don't know why I've never done that. It feels like that'd be a good way to do a thing and I haven't done it. Yeah, well, but don't do it through Amazon unless you're okay giving your money back. Okay, all right. Hey, folks, if you want to get all the tech headlines each day in about five minutes, be sure to subscribe to dailytechheadlines.com. Couple of robot stories here. And I think they go well together. So we're gonna pair them for you. Our chefs have prepared them two ways. Ford announced its package delivery robot called Digit is now operational. They announced that we're gonna do this. Now they're saying it's operational and they have a video showing it working. That doesn't mean it's actually out in the world doing anything yet. It just means like, oh, we actually went from concept to working model. It's a two-legged robot created by Agility Robotics meant to fold up for storage in a self-driving vehicle. So the idea is the vehicle does the self-driving package delivery to the door. But let's say it's someone who can't come out of their house. The vehicle then makes a map of the terrain. So it uses its LiDAR and all the sensors it uses to drive to say, okay, there's a slight grade and there's some steps and there's a fence here. And then it shares that map with the robot Digit. Digit is bipedal. So Digit will then unfold from the car, carry packages up to 40 pounds and take them to your door. It looks creepy though because it's wobbling up on two legs and it doesn't really have a face or anything. Well, our other story informs us a little bit about why Digit looks so creepy. Giant Food Stores is rolling out a robot called Marty to assist customers in 172 locations across the East Coast. I used to shop at Giant back in Arlington, Virginia. They are autonomous robots like many others but they also have googly eyes on them. Giant President Nick Bertram told Adweek, the eyes make it a bit more fun. But Engadget talked to some scientists who say the eyes actually do more than just make it fun. Dr. Amrisha Vaish, assistant professor at the University of Virginia's Department of Psychology told Engadget, humans are very sensitive to the presence of other people and we behave more socially in the presence of other people. It's called the watching eye paradigm. So if we feel like a person is looking at us, then we behave a little better. Now that can wear off if it's a non-moving eye. We start to realize, oh, those aren't really eyes but robots are moving. Children as young as five react when a peer is watching them and show more pro-social behavior, less antisocial behavior, less stealing behavior.  And they found that weeks where they had the photo of the eyes above the jar turned an extra $12 a week more in donations than the other jars did. Now, all of this is to say that maybe Ford ought to put some googly eyes on Digit. Now, I do not find Digit creepy. I understand that Digit does not have googly eyes but I mean, we've seen quite a bit of robots over the last few years, lots of different kinds of robots, lots of different kinds of legs, lots of colors, if it's delivering a package, I don't need to like make eye contact. Well, here's the thing, Sarah and I, you and I are both adult people with maturity who want, we want civil life. Some for our maturity. I know at least a few, let's say 16 to 17 year olds who the minute they saw Digit at their door would like to come out and Spartan kick it into the yard. So this is my worry is that as it always is, Tom's still gonna see a pattern here because whenever we talk about these advances on this show, my brain immediately goes to, what can teenagers do to jack it up? And I don't mean this from like a, get off my lawn old man standpoint. If I was a teenager, I would consider the kick because it sounds really funny until later you get in trouble. But that's my only worry here other than this, this is great, bring robots to my door. I don't care if they're creepy or have eyes. I love this eye study though. I think it's amazing and it says a lot about all sorts of things dealing with how we deal with anthropomorphized objects and machinery and animals. You know, when the more an animal looks like a puppy or the more a puppy looks like a baby, the more we are drawn to it and babies are cute for a reason. We take care of them and old people are nasty and we have to all argue about who's gonna take care of grandpa. Like we are drawn by this sort of stuff. And so that's fascinating to me but I'm still worried about poor Digit and where he'll end up. I also, and I think we all understand like googly eyes, what that means. They're cartoonish, they're friendly, they're, you know, yeah, cutesy and whatever. It's like, imagine if a robot had, you know, shifty eyes, you know, and it would be a whole different thing. Well, it might keep the kids from kicking it though. Might keep the kids from kicking it but at the same time, I don't know, I always think of what like, when I've been taught safety, you know, if I'm walking around at night and I'm a young woman and, you know, how do you sort of make sure that you, and one of the things is like, you always make eye contact with anybody that you pass so that they know you're paying attention, right?  So somebody's got weird eyes. I always do notice that cause I'm like, I'm on to you, buddy, buddy or gal. Googly eyes are cute. Yeah, googly eyes are cute. So it's like, it's designed to make the robot as inoffensive as possible. So I get that, especially with kids. I can't believe Digit doesn't creep you out a little bit. It doesn't have a head. But it's like, it's not a human. Why does it have to have a head? It just needs to come up my stairs and give me the cat litter.  Like that would be like, now it's just that machine, big deal. But there's something about it being in sort of a humanoid shape. Life like and yet. Yeah. What if you put a nice baseball cap on him? Even more. Now we've done it more. They're humanized even more. So I don't know if that's good or bad or up or down. I, you know, there's a reason like in movies, we've always made them, for the most part, we've made our robots look like us a little bit because we relate to them more. They can fit in more. Like there's all these reasons why they, that we do that. And so that science is really fascinating to me as we move closer and closer to a world where robotics and super AI are not that crazy of an idea. It's not science fiction anymore. Will we continue to anthropomorphize all of our robots in the future? And I think we probably will. I can't remember the model off top of my head now.  I bet it's about to turn and it does. So there's all kinds of other reasons to mimic human behavior. Sometimes I think we're like, why does this robot even have to be bipedal? Well, because it can navigate steps and things built for humans better that way. Why does this robot have to have a face? Like Sarah is saying, well, because it calms people down and makes people less likely to kick it. And it makes some people less creeped out and can even like give you cues about what it's gonna do. So because we're used to interacting with other humans, making the robot looks humans, makes them easier for us to interact with. But not too human, because then we want them to act like humans, which they are not at the whole other conversation. Although then if we don't treat them like humans, then we take away their rights and then they get sentience and then they rebel against us. So there's that whole thing. I don't know how we win this one, but I am excited for Digi to bring my cat litter up the stairs because it's really heavy. You're gonna have to order less than the whole amount of cat litter, is that it? It's probably about 40 pounds. I get the big jumbo one. Well, I don't know, can't win. Can't win with robots. We'll keep trying though. Thanks everybody who participates in our subreddit. You can submit stories and vote on them at dailytechnewshow.reddit.com. Hang out in our Facebook group as well, facebook.com slash groups slash Daily Tech News Show. Let's check out the mail bag. Let's do it software defined radio. We talked about this earlier in the week. Was it yesterday? I guess it was yesterday. Oh yeah, yesterday we had the email that was asking, hey, why can't we just have multiple broadcasts on one spectrum? That was Jeff who was like, could we do software defined radio? Well, Mark in Minneapolis says, STR as the public gets it is 99% receive only, not transmit or receiver. Receiving signals is easier than transmitting. The circuits are simpler. There's less power requirements, no antennas or antenna gates to deal with. The other part of it is simple spectrum security. FCC requires licensing across many different brands and you don't necessarily want a bunch of radios out in the wild that could transmit on a bunch of frequencies, but the only thing holding them back is software.  Yeah, I mean, that's the second one's a fair objection. If that was the only objection I would say, well, but that applies to anything software and we are better at developing ways to secure things. But you combine that with the fact that, yeah, it's mostly about receiving, not transceivers, not transmitting. And the fact that it's not CB radio, it's not just an open band that as many people on a broadcast can and software defined radio might be harder to enforce that for. Thank you, Mark. I appreciate the explanation there, that was great. Yes, hopefully Minneapolis is warming up a bit. I heard they've had some weather as of late. Thanks also to Scott Johnson for being with us on Wednesday's show. Scott, what's been going on with you? Well, a lot of stuff. There's always something to be found over at frogbans.com.  It's slash Scott Johnson on YouTube. That is homage to Game of Thrones, which just ended. It's not a spoiler of any sort, but it combines Game of Thrones with a little bit of the breakfast club from the 80s. I mean, there's nothing. There's no two things I want to combine more. It's as if you read my mind, even though I didn't realize I wanted it yet. You might get a kick out of it. I put it all together today. It's that kind of dumbness you can find from me and work I do.

As I was doing the Tesla thing, I was like, well, then I'm gonna take away Tom's lion. So I just sort of fumbled through it. Where'd Tom go?  Yeah, he's a, he's a, you can't keep him.  Odie, are you feeling okay? My poor buddy. Did his food, maybe? Or I guess you probably looked at everything. You probably... Well, he ate a squeaky toy over the weekend. The squeaky toy has been, it's no longer in his body, but I think that that was a start. And then he also ate two avocados whole. Yeah, which, and again, that was even before the squeaky toy incident. And I was like, okay. Did he mess the pits? He didn't eat the pits. He ate everything else. Everything but the pits of a skin. He kindly left the pits and weird areas of the house so that I didn't even know what had happened where I was like, what is this? Oh, I've got it. So yeah, he's just, he's just also just a big baby. And sorry, sorry. I busted out of there. Makes my life hard. No, but Ray has been trying to knock down the door because it's thundering. Oh. It is? Yeah. Thunder and lightning, very, very. Overway, Sarah and Roger. Apparently, so, well a friend of mine, she's going to downtown LA to like see a friend who's staying at a hotel and it's like a nice hotel. And she was like, well, great. So much for going to the pool. It's raining. She lives like two blocks from me and I'm like. Oh, great. I don't see any rain. But okay. Raining, raining, raining. It's gonna rain tomorrow. It's gonna rain. I couldn't figure out why. She probably could hear it coming and I couldn't. And it started raining and then it started thundering. Yeah, cause she's usually pretty patient with you. She lays down in the back, she didn't care. Well, we had a chill today, so we're having weird weather too. I don't get it. Sawyer just doesn't care. He's like, he's like just staring at us. Like, why is she freaking out? There was some thunder. We had some, when was that? It was a couple of months ago now. You know, in LA it was just like a lit up, you know, with thunder and lightning, which is really unusual like how strong it was. And Otis did not like that.  But it wasn't, he didn't freak out or burk or anything. He was just like, I don't know what those noises are. Yeah, she doesn't like it. I guess it's the noise. It's just, yeah, it's pretty common. It's a rumbling. Dogs. Jango was always the same way. I think it's a shepherd thing. Like their ears are more sensitive to it. Cause her head doesn't get it. Reminds them of a stampeding herd of elephants. Yeah, maybe. It's kind of similar. Anyway, she's going to be right here next to me while we choose the title. Okay, Ray. Hail, Scott. Arms, U.S. arm. I don't like that kind of. Unfolding creepy digit. You guys are so mean to digits. Yeah. Digit does not deserve this. Headless digit. All he's trying to do. Digit doesn't care because it has no head. Yeah, I don't even really know what I'm calling him a he. Digit is not. Digit is just. Digit knows no gender. Hey, we don't know what digits preferred pronoun is. Right. I wouldn't, I, I overstepped. Not presume. It's a, imagine it as a self self. Well, we also have won't somebody think of digit? Oh. Oh, see. Yeah. At the bottom. Well, somebody did the people who made digit. Just do the digit soundtrack that change it to digit. Wayne, do you see? What about if you called it, if it was bought without a face? Bought without a face. Oh, there he is. Bought without a human race. Bought without a face. Sounds like a winner. Yeah. I like it. Cool. Anytime Billy Idol can be conjured, I am into that. I agree. Always.  No. No, I mean, just like that song. I wanted to talk about Billy Idol more is what I'm saying. Billy Idol. He was in the news the other day. He became a dual citizen recently. Now. Oh, yeah. Generation X. Yeah. With Billy Idol. Yeah. If you have a Generation X band, had Billy Idol. It's a nice day for a white wedding. I always figure. I think didn't generation, Generation X did dancing with myself. And I think they did white wedding before Billy Idol did them solo and made them hits. I think you're right. Really? You're always good at these covers of songs I did not realize were covers. Well, I mean, he sang them as part of, wasn't he? Yeah, he was the lead singer of Generation X. But, okay. No, no, no. I got you. I got you. It's a second version. It's just like it's something that no one's ever mentioned to me. Yeah, yeah, yeah. It's like if Phil Collins took a Genesis song and made it a Phil Collins song. I wonder, did he ever do that? I don't know. Had like 150. He just made them Genesis songs. I just remember he moved from Genesis to solo to Disney soundtrack artist. Well, and Genesis at the same time. Because his no jacket required came out before Invisible Touch, I think. Yeah. There was some crossover there. And plus the Disney thing came like after all his Miami Vice stuff that he did. And, you know, he had all kinds of weird little things going on. Did you need a good day internet title, Roger? Yes. It's not walkout awful. That's cool. All right, done. Trust me, awful. I'd leave. It's awful. If I say something's awful, I'll usually tell you to wait for it on Netflix if you really want to see it. Yeah, of course you would. Like it. There is some part of me, you know, I was like, maybe she watched Affliction. I don't know. It's like, I don't want you to suffer or anything. But, you know, how someone, I'll say something like, yeah, like a bad TV show. And that person will be like, what is it? And I'm like, well, I don't want to spoil it, though. And they're like, well, but you just said it was really bad. So I won't see it. And I'm like, no, no, no, you should. And then come back to me and we can, you know, be in a mystery together. Well, you know, it's kind of like. I think Christmas Prince, the Netflix original, I might call awful. Is it a Christmas movie? Yeah. Who's the Prince? Oh, I don't remember. Just, just a bad. It's a made up country. Santamio. What else would I consider a really awful? Oh, I know, apparently older actors who are like have storied careers bothered me. Insomnia starring El Pacino takes place in Alaska. Oh, you know what? I actually have the Swedish movie it's based on. I liked it. And so I went to the movie to go see Insomnia. And it's like, why am I sitting through this? Right. It's torture. It's a torturous movie. It's right before dark night. It's our night. Sorry, Batman Begins for Christopher Nolan is Christopher Nolan movie. Oh, speaking of Batman movies, any of them didn't know him that well back then. That's true. Any of them after Michael Keaton, but before Christopher Nolan, they were all bad. Well, the whole the not affliction, Insomnia, these one word, you know, these bad one words where you're like, oh, that's not bad. But it takes place in Alaska. And it's like, as Amos tells us all the time, you know, it's really light. So you got to like figure out how your circadian rhythms don't get weird. It's the summer season. Yeah. Yeah. It's like the guy can't sleep and it's light outside. And you're just like, I just want to take a shower. I hate this so much. I hope I can take it. You know what? If you have dark turns, you'll fall asleep. Well, but the movie, there was more to it. There was bad stuff going on. He was a detective and he was on a he was on a murder case. But because of the insomnia, he he's he was not totally.  June 3rd, we will be making our primary video stream on Twitch. Twitch.tv slash Good Day Internet. That starts June 3rd now for about a week or so afterwards, we will simulstream just to to make the transition. But after about a week, the YouTube channel will no longer have the live stream. It'll still have the on demand stuff that will still be there. So so folks can can listen to it afterwards. I know a lot of people listen on YouTube. But the live stream will be switching to Twitch.tv slash Good Day Internet. I'm working with Preston, aka BioCal about some of the moderation stuff in there. So just mark your calendars for June 3rd and get subscribed to Twitch.tv slash Good Day Internet. If you watch live, if you don't watch live, don't matter. Nothing's changing. And we know we got to embed the Twitch page at dailytechnewsha.com slash live by then too. Right. Yes. I thought I lost everyone. Oh, no, no, I'm trying to trying to put in the file name. Yeah. Oh, there it is.  And I kept bugging him about sending out an invitation so that because I'm kind of helping organize it so that people aren't busy when July rolls around. And he was like, I sent it yesterday.  And I was like, I really don't see the paperless post. It's in here. Somehow it got filed into DTS stuff. Happy birthday, Tim. Happy birthday, Tim. Hey, I don't know you, Tim, but I wish you a happy birthday. It's Tim Day. Tim's a good name for a person because my brother's named Tim. Tim and Tam, they make a good cookie. They make a delicious cookie. Tom's Tim Tam. Mmm, that's me eating a Tim Tam. No, it has to whatever sound you make us to start with a T. Tom's Tim Tam. Tummy. There you go. Tom's Tim Tam, Tummy. Today I have too many Tim Tams. Tom's got Tim Tam, Tummy. Oh, Tim Tams, I'm good. Great. Tim Tams are dangerous, actually. It's weird because I think they they're like Twix, but so much better. And there lies the danger because you will not stop. I don't know. Twix is hard to beat. Twix is a good cookie. No, I don't like about Twix.  Is it stupid? That's just dumb. What is that? I don't know what that means. I don't know what that is. Like fans of the left Twix in the package can buy a package with two left sticks. I'm like, wait, what? Are they shaped differently? No, no, I don't.  No, something can be very successful and also stupid, in my opinion. Oh, so so you buy. That's right. Absolutely. Do the do normal Twix packages have like an L and an R? No. So they just say like L L or R. They basically invented this controversy in order to get up sales marketing campaign that's not on the packages like commercials. Well, it's on the commercials. They have the arguments and then you can sometimes the packages will say two left Twix or two right Twix. OK, so there is that they did. They did change some of the packages. I hear thunder. Yes, finally came to your your neighborhood. What have you brought upon me? And I was going to do a nice afternoon walk, too. But I'm glad I got a walk. I was going to do one right after. Well, at least I found my belt. Oh, I'm glad. Oh, good.  Yeah, yeah. I was almost thinking about getting suspenders. Well, now that we've resolved the mystery of Roger's belt, we are going to say goodbye to the video. Thanks for Scott, although we must, Scott, say something so we can see you. I'm here right here, everybody. Hello. Scott's got his Oculus Quest on. Hi. Living with it as we speak. I'm living with it. This is me from now on. All right, you're going to look at the Google Doc for the for the bonus show. Yes, I am. Turns out you can't you can't see that very well through the set. All right, thanks, video people, for watching audio folks. Stick around. There's a bit more to come.


2D materials have been discovered in the past decade, providing new platforms for probing-spin interaction with other degrees of freedom for electrons and novel-spintronics applications, which is briefly presented in this review. This article was authored by Wei Han.


Siya Kallisi gushes over his Queen Rachel Springbok Captain Siya Kallisi has paid tribute to his wifey, Rachel for her unconditional support. It's no secret that being married to a sports star can be challenging, especially with the grueling routines and travel schedules, and Siya is grateful to Rachel for being behind him all the way. Siya made history as the first Black Captain to lead the Springboks to victory at the recent Rugby World Cup. But everyone knows behind every successful man, there's a woman right. And, see Siya paid glowing tribute to the Queen who played a pivotal part in his success. Thanks for always being there for me, believing in me and pushing me to be the best I can be. Off.


Phthalates are hormone-disrupting chemicals linked to a number of adverse health effects, such as disturbing infant and child development, and in adults may affect reproductive health in men, endometriosis in women, and is associated with increased abdominal fat in both. Given the increasing evidence-based linking phthalate exposure with harmful outcomes, it's important to understand major sources of exposure, the most major of which is diet. For if you take people and have them stop eating for a few days, you get a significant drop in the amount of phthalates spilling out into their urine. One can only fast for so long, though. Thankfully we can see similar drops just eating a plant-based diet for a few days, which gives us a clue as to where most phthalates are found. The highest levels are found in meats, fats, and dairy. Poultry consistently comes out as being most contaminated across the board, with some of the highest levels ever reported, though there are geographic exceptions. In the UK, fish came out worse, and in Belgium, nothing appears to beat out reindeer meat. In the US, though, it's poultry. The finding that egg consumption is also significantly associated with phthalate levels suggests that chickens themselves may be contaminated, and it's not just like the plastic they're wrapped with in the store. The same might not be true with dairy, though. Realizing that these chemicals may be harmful, researchers in Seattle took 10 families and randomized them into five days of complete dietary replacement with fresh organic foods. No packaging, nothing touched plastic. Organic milk delivered in glass, even the crates to carry the food, were wood instead of plastic. This was like the fasting study to see what role eliminating processed foods would have on lowering phthalate levels, because not everyone wants to switch to a plant-based diet or stop eating completely. Here's where the family started at baseline before changing their diet, and here's where they ended up a week after the experiment when they were back on their baseline diet. The question is what happened in the middle. Eating fresh and organic, their phthalate levels went up a dramatic and unexpected increase in one of the most toxic phthalates, and not just a little, like 2,000% increase. So they tested all the foods, and one of the spices was off the chart, and so was the dairy. As most of the phthalates apparently don't come from the cow, they come from the tubing. If you milk a cow by hand, which even the Amish don't do anymore, the level of phthalates in the milk are low. But if you milk the same cows by machine, the milk picks up phthalates from the tubing, and so the final levels may depend more on the tubing than on what the cows are fed. Whereas we're not sure where the chickens are getting it. This study was done on adults more recently. We learned where our kids may be getting it from. They found pretty much the same thing, mostly meat, poultry, and fish. And again, poultry appeared to be the worst while soy consumption was associated with significantly lower levels. But what kind of exposure are we talking about? Have we calculated what may be typical exposures for infants, teens, and women? How does this compare with current guidelines? Well the EPA's reference dose, which is like the maximum acceptable threshold, is 20 based on liver risk. Europe places their maximum daily intake for testicular toxicity at 50. So a typical infant diet exceeds the EPA's safety level while a diet high in meat and dairy was approximately four times this threshold. For adolescents, a diet high in meat and dairy also exceeded the EPA's reference dose. Diets high in meat and dairy consumption resulted in a two-fold increase in exposure. And all diets from all groups exceeded the allowable daily intakes derived by the U.S. Consumer Product and Safety Commission for problems with sperm production, while diets high in meat and dairy consumption may exceed the allowable intake for risk of reproductive birth defects as well.


So over the last week or so, I've been doing a little bit of spring cleaning now. I know what you're thinking Matt. It's October It's not spring. Well You'd be right. It's not spring but I've decided to do a little bit of spring cleaning and the place that I've been focusing on, you know Not in the physical world, but on my computer is in trying to get my files a little bit better Organized I am not the worst when it comes to organizing my files I tried to to keep things in their proper places The pictures go in the pictures folder the downloads go in the downloads folder you get the idea, but After that point usually stuff just kind of gets shoved in there like it's a closet And when you walk in you expect the entire thing to come crumbling down and bury you in detritus But I want to do better. So over the last week or so, I've been trying to organize within those directories a little bit better and Over that time, I've figured out a few things and I thought I'd pass those things along So today I'm gonna talk about three tips or tricks that I can give you for being a little bit better organized when it comes to file management So the first one is that directories are your friend use as many directories that you possibly can and I'm Serious about this when I say everything should go in a directory Even if you know that there's only one thing that could possibly go in that directory create a directory for it So let me show you a good example of this. This is my Wallpapers folder and as you can see I have Categories of wallpapers now. I'm obviously just getting started here. There's still a long way to go But by creating categories of wallpapers I've been able to become a little bit more organized with the way things are so anything It's abstract goes in the abstract folder That's not a good title because a lot of things could be considered quote-unquote abstract so it's become kind of a catch-all for weird things anything that is kind of Weird goes in here. It's not necessarily the best categorization, but I'm working on it buildings and stuff going here now As you can see I've started to put directories inside of directories. So Instead of the architecture directory, I have a castles directory, you know for castles, you know And I'm working on this slowly putting things where they're supposed to go And even if I knew I only had one wallpaper of a certain category. I'd still create a directory for it I would not leave it just lying about in the general wallpapers folder and this tip goes for pretty much anything It's not just pictures documents any of that stuff create a directory for Everything and then nest those directories in the appropriate place create a hierarchy of Directories so you have a very general category of something and then you put more specific directories inside there and then the files the reason why you do this is For two reasons first it looks better and that really doesn't matter all that much But for me personally it just kind of feels more like you're flowing through your file system when you've organized like this But also by having Appropriate names for your directories and storing things in the proper places It just makes it not only easier to find manually, but also easier to search So if you need to search for something if you have something properly labeled Inside of its own directory. It just makes it much easier to find once you've done your organizing So those are the two reasons why this is really important And I'm sure there are probably other ones that I'm not thinking of The second tip that I can give you and this is the one that I haven't even started on yet And you can see the problem right here on screen. I need to do a better job of naming My files appropriately now most of these are not my fault. I've downloaded these off from various Places on the internet from wallpaper packs and wallpaper websites and stuff like that And they all have different naming conventions and all this stuff Some of the stuff even came from my Google images, you know, and you can't get a proper name off from Google images So if I were to look at number 44 here, I have no idea what I'd name that but the idea behind the second tip is to make sure that every file that you have is appropriately named and The benefits for this are pretty obvious It means that when you want to search for something you can search for it And you won't have to worry about it having a name that has nothing to do with what the actual thing is Also, if you don't have a fancy Preview you can at least be able to tell what that file is without having to actually open it up and look at it This is Really good for saving time and being able to just kind of glance. Oh, like, oh, I know what 191 is that's a couch Of all the things that could click on it happens to be a sofa. That is a really weird wallpaper I don't know why I have it, but it doesn't matter you get the idea I would name that one sofa. So if I were to rename that I would name this Sofa, you know, I mean then now I have a properly named file that I can search for the next time I want a wallpaper of a, you know, a sofa really weird. I don't That kind of worked out better if I you know tried anyways name your files appropriately now Obviously, this is way easier to do as you collect your file. So when you download something name it appropriately It's much harder to do as I'm gonna have to be have to do and go through these one by one after I've downloaded them and rename them It's much easier to do it as you download or as you collect your files I'm pretty sure at most everybody's going to be exactly like me and that they probably have a whole bunch of files where they Haven't done this so they're gonna have to go back and do them But if you can at least start yourself on the habit of naming your stuff appropriately when you Download it or pull it from somewhere or upload it to your computer or whatever You'll at least be on your way to having this done for you You won't have to do it again in the future long as you always make a habit of doing this The third one on the list is one that I consider fairly obvious And that is to delete as much of the stuff out of your downloads folder as possible This is not one that I do a very good job at but I've been working on it Believe it or not my downloads folder was much bigger than this just a few days ago I've gotten it down to quite a bit and there's actually quite a few more of these backups here that I could get rid of I just haven't gotten around to it yet But the point is is that your downloads folder is probably the directory on your system That is the most likely to become cluttered because that's where the catch all is every time you download a picture or whatever from the internet It's probably going in your downloads folder. So just From time to time go into your downloads folder and delete the things that you just know you no longer need There are some things here that I know I no longer need. So for example, I can get rid of ferdym. I don't use ferdym anymore I can do that Like so I can get rid of the key the keytron one You just go through and delete things that you don't need and one Other way that you can kind of prevent your downloads folder From becoming a catch all is that when you download something from your browser or wherever Put it in the appropriate spot to begin with don't let your downloads folder just become the de facto Place where stuff is downloaded instead if you download a picture Put it in your pictures directory or even better put it in the directory inside of the picture directory where it goes specifically categorized for whatever that picture is you could do the same thing for applications or binaries or app images that you downloaded from the internet Put those in the appropriate place where you want to store them right away instead of just having the downloads folder Be your automatic catch all for everything now. This is one habit that i'm really really bad at I do a pretty good job when it comes to pictures I can store those where they go and i've become a much better job But specifically when it comes to wallpapers downloading those and putting those where they go Even if i still need to learn how to Name them properly One thing i haven't done a very good job of that is everything else So videos that i download rpms zip folders all this stuff it tends to kind of accumulate in the downloads folder and that is Not something that i have been able to break my habit of so far So it's something that i'm definitely working on hopefully that's something that i get better at So those are the three tips that i've kind of discovered at least about my personal way of organizing stuff when it comes to Spring cleaning I'm sure there are many more that i could share But those are the three that i've kind of thought about over the last few days If you have ideas on how you organize your file system I'd love to hear of those in the comment section below You can follow me on twitter at the linuxcast You can follow me on mastodon or odyssey those links will be in the video description You can support me on patreon at patreon.com slash linuxcast just like all these fine people Thanks to everybody who does support me on patreon youtube you guys are all Absolutely amazing without you the channel just would not be anywhere near where it is right now So thank you so very much. Thanks everybody for watching. I'll see you next time


In the name of Allah, the Most Merciful, the Ever Merciful, and the Everlasting Curse beyond the Satanist followers, Allah's blessings and peace be upon Muhammad the Prophet and upon his pure family. I respected viewers, as usual, I start with one of the sayings of the Master of Martyrs el-Imam al-Pussain, who says, Wisdom will never be complete except by following the truth. I respected viewers, Allah's blessings and peace be upon you, and welcome to with Imam Hussein, a series of episodes in which we talk about the different stages of Imam Hussein's life, starting from his miraculous birthday, mentioning some of the stories and events happened to him during his holy life, mentioning some of the prophetic quotes said in his right, but the prophet of Islam, and then ending up with his unmatchable martyrdom. My name is Hassan Hadi and I'm honored to be hosting this program. I respected viewers, today's episode is the prediction of Imam Hussein's martyrdom. I respected viewers, there are many narrations indicating that the knowledge of al-Imam al-Pussain's martyrdom was widespread during the lifetime of the Messenger of Allah. In fact, however, one such report suggests that it was well known even earlier than that. In it, the leader of Benyus Suleiman states the following, When we were in the battle against the Romans, we found the following poem written on one of the churches. Does the group who killed al-Pussain bin Ali expect to be included in the intercession of his grandfather? So we asked the Romans, how long has this written been here? They replied, since 300 years before your prophet, Muhammad was sent. Thus our respected viewers, it should be no surprise that the holy prophet of Islam and his pure family also knew from even before his birth that al-Pussain bin Ali would be martyred on the plains of Karbala. Indeed, it has been recorded in many places, as we have already mentioned in previous episodes, how the Messenger of Allah, Allah's blessings and peace be upon him, and upon his pure family was informed of the impending martyrdom of al-Hussain bin Ali by Gabriel himself. Accordingly, in one such narration from al-Imam al-Sadiq, alayhi salam, he states, One day, al-Hussain was with the Messenger of Allah. Gabriel descended to the prophet and said, Oh, Muhammad, do you love him?  Upon hearing this, the Messenger of Allah became extremely grieved. Gabriel said, Oh, Muhammad, would you like to accompany me to show you the land upon which he will be killed? Then Gabriel joined the land where the prophet was sitting in Medina, with that of Karbala, by folding the earth. Then he picked up some of the dust of Karbala with his wing and gave it to the prophet and then returned the earth back to the way it was less than the blink of an eye. The prophet holding the dust said to it, Oh, dust, you are blissful and blissful is the one who is called upon you.  Our respected viewers, this is the end of today's episode. Until a moment again, thank you very much indeed. Wassalamu alaikum warahmatullahi wabarakatuh.


Instead of thinking of hashtags as, oh, I'm just gonna put these things there and hopefully get some more visibility, which is true. You'll get a bit more visibility. I have a more, I believe a more humanistic or authentic way of approaching hashtags. I think of it as a community of discussion, a community of creators of potential referral sources, potential clients. And when I think of it that way, it becomes much more friendly to me and less technical and less maybe spammy or markety or salesy or something like that. So let me go and show you what I mean. So I'm gonna go ahead and show you my screen here.  Now you first might wonder, how did you get to this page? Well, here's how.  Okay, what's gonna happen is you're gonna see a bunch of random things, but I would recommend that you click posts. They click posts. Now you're sorting by the posts and you're not quite at the hashtag page yet. The hashtag page is kind of like the community page for that hashtag. To get there, you have to actually click on the hashtag. So the reason why Manuela's post is showing up even from nine months ago, this is amazing, right? The power of hashtags and of LinkedIn content is because Manuela is a first degree connection for me. That's why LinkedIn is surfacing her posts even from nine months ago from this search. Now, the reason why she's showing up for this search is because she's using the hashtag in her post and let's prove that point. I click on see more, because I'm not seeing the hashtag yet, but click on see more, there it is. And Manuela is very, she's taken my LinkedIn course before and so she's savvy to this stuff. She's using the three hashtags like I recommended and she's also using hashtags that are maybe more targeted, okay? So not huge, right? So relationships is one of those hashtags. I'm gonna click on relationships to get to the hashtag page. Now we're at the hashtag page. I can click on follow if I want to have the chance of seeing the posts from this community of hashtag relationships in my feed. So I'm gonna click follow to show you what happens, okay? Now I'm following. So next time I go to the feed, you know, click on home, I might, I'm still probably gonna see the post from my connections the most. I'm gonna click, you know, love this or insightful. Okay, great, I haven't read it yet but I bet Moet says always insightful. But if I keep scrolling or if I click on top recent, I might actually see the hashtags, some posts from the hashtag but I'm gonna go back to this hashtag community and show you. So there are 8,000 followers, which I think is a good number in a separate lesson that we'll talk about the number of followers. But here is where I can see these are the people that are using the relationship hashtag and I can engage with the people that I think, well, with the posts that I enjoy, especially with the people that I think might be potential referral sources or maybe even potential clients. And so you might wanna scroll down and keep it at the top because these are the posts that are more likely to be seen. But if you want to engage, you know, and be super supportive of the people who just made the post, you can click on top and select recent. And these are the newest posts from 11 minutes ago, you know, that was just made. And if I determined that this person is a potential, you know, potential ideal connection of mine, then by me engaging with their posts, I'm gonna really be noticed like, oh, Isabella is gonna be super thankful that I was one of the first commenters or likers of their posts. So there you go. That's how you really approach hashtags from a more connected perspective, that a more net caring perspective. So hopefully this changes your mind about how to think about hashtags going forward.


Know you guys are so excited that the blocks are back and more than that I'm more excited like I love doing this. That's what I love doing I had so much fun with it and you know college, you know, I got here It's taking me a minute to adjust.  I'm gonna get back and enjoy it this summer's gonna be so much fun I know you guys are gonna see a lot of cool footage. I'm gonna travel. I'm gonna co-lab with a lot of people I'm gonna do tons of stuff. So like stay tuned if you guys haven't turned on push notifications It's actually by the subscribe button. There's a little bell make sure you click that bell So it sends you like notifications when I post videos, but rather than that Let's go ahead and get this day started So I'm starting off with this right here because I'm sure you guys saw in the background you're wondering What is this? Well, I gotta make a relic. All right, and this is for class and my concept is Like All right, so This is like weird to look at this is so weird But this is what the teacher likes.  So my concepts fishing, but I picked one reason why Like I love fishing and it's because of the outdoors like the environment like I could have said Yeah, I have a couple of businesses and fishing and you know our film and all that stuff But I wanted to base it around, you know outdoors nature So I actually went to the store bought this little glass and some moss and crap like that Actually gluing it all around the glass So I had this glued all around the glass and see the concept can't be clear Like the people actually have to figure it out. So once this is all glued with moss I'm gonna fill the inside with moss and in the middle This is like the idea that the teacher gave me that's why I'm using it in the middle There's gonna be a heart.

That's all it is. But putting in the work I have number one tip for like people like All right, I could probably fade the topic for this video towards this right here like the main topic If I could say one thing people for tips on their YouTube channel People are like wondering they're asking me. They're like, how should I grow my YouTube channel? How should I grow my fishing business? How should I grow my Instagram page? How should I grow this? Well, it's like You put in the work There's nothing as plain as that seems but from you starting from the bottom like right here because we all started here You know, we all started on the bottom From you see just created a YouTube channel Instagram. How do you get traffic and attention towards you?  All right, you put in the work You you keep grinding you keep doing it the only thing that that I could say to be honest I want to say I want to keep it so simple because Once you guys get this in your head and that's how your mindset thinks there's no one that's gonna stop you That's why I'm like preaching this right now, but like you guys are asking for tips on your YouTube How to grow how to do this how to do that how to do that My biggest tip is to put in the work If you seriously put in Think about this think about this if you put 15 hours a day Into your YouTube or into your business or into your Instagram, whatever it is if you put 15 hours a day I'm not saying you have to do this. You can put two hours a day. Let's just let's just say 15 hours So you put 15 hours of your day and time so you're off off you don't have school during the summer You know say you don't have a job. You just want to do this YouTube thing You want to go out have fun 15 hours a day you have 15 hours you put 15 hours a day Into that YouTube how many hours is that a week? That's 105 hours a week That you will put into your business think about a hundred and five out You know what you can do in a hundred five hours. You understand what you can do I'm not talking about 50 hours Like if you have if you're available to do 14 hours and you're willing to put in the work because you want to win That bad.  I'm talking just content content content post post post Business ideas writing stuff down getting work done talking to people You know, I had this idea that uh, oh, let's go fishing.   It's just everything in life This isn't even about YouTube.  Oh dude, it's gonna probably take you some years But you gotta be willing to put in that time And I tell you something come quicker if you just keep grinding say you say you like slack off See you post one video a month instead of when you could post for a month, you know Think about that's four times That's four more times of a chance for you to get bigger See I'm saying it's like Continent content work work work and then you'll achieve it all you guys small youtubers small businesses small Instagram pages They're trying to get big in the fishing industry. That's my base tip. Just putting the work keep grinding keep posting Keep doing what you're doing. If you know you're doing the right thing. You're doing something, right? I'm telling you if you really deep down in your heart know what you're doing Then you're doing something, right? Just keep on doing what you're doing and it's gonna come It's just gonna be patient.

Hi friends, welcome back to my channel and welcome back to the third episode in my WW Instant Pot series.  I cannot wait to share these recipes with you. If you are on the fence about buying an instant pot or maybe you have one but you don't use it because you're not sure how to use it then this is the series for you. I'm going to be sharing two delicious WW friendly recipes that are so easy to make, one stop shop in the instant pot. So if you want to see what two recipes I have in store for you, all you have to do is stay tuned. For tonight's instant pot dinner, we are going to be making instant pot buffalo chicken pasta. This sounds so good. Who doesn't love pasta for dinner? So let me show you what is in tonight's dinner. So first you're going to need some pasta. I am using the fiber gourmet light penne pasta. This pasta is half the smart point of a regular pasta. Three points per two ounces versus six points per two ounces. You can buy this on Amazon and it is linked down in my description box below. This is a staple in my house. I usually have anywhere from six to eight bags on hand. You're also going to need some ranch. So I'm going to use bull house classic ranch. You'll need some hot sauce. So I'm going to use sweet baby rays, light butter, bacon bits, cream cheese, light Mexican style or any type of a light cheese and of course some chicken breasts. So let's get started on tonight's dinner. The first step for tonight's dinner is to go ahead and put your three breasts of chicken in a ziploc bag. To that we are going to add our hot sauce. Now we don't like our food super spicy so I'm using half the amount of hot sauce that the recipe called for and in fact I'm going to have most of the recipe as well since there's only two people in my family. So this is actually about an eighth of a cup of hot sauce and we are just going to put that directly onto our chicken and then we're just going to give our chicken a nice good shake, get it nice and covered in the hot sauce and then we're ready to add some of our ingredients directly into our instant pot. So the next step is we are going to take one tablespoon of light butter and put that into our instant pot and then to that we are going to go ahead and we're going to add in our pieces of chicken with the hot sauce.  We're going to select manual and we are going to up the time to 14 minutes. We'll pop our lid on and we are going to let this cook for 14 minutes. While your chicken is cooking go ahead and add your cream cheese to a bowl. This is four ounces. I did half the amount of cream cheese. I also have the amount of ranch so this is one half of a cup of bull house ranch and the original recipe also asks that you add additional hot sauce but I am not going to do that because the hot sauce on the chicken will be enough for us but you would also add some hot sauce to this mixture.  Once your chicken is done you're going to go ahead and remove it from your instant pot. We're going to add it to a bowl and then we're going to get it all nice and shredded up and then we'll add it to our cream cheese and ranch mixture and then we're ready to put our pasta into the instant pot. Once you get your chicken all shredded we're going to go ahead and add it to our cream cheese and ranch mixture and then we're just going to mix it all up and then we're ready to get our pasta into our instant pot. The next step is we're going to go ahead and take our water so since I have the recipe I have to the water so this is only one in a half cups of water. To that we're going to go ahead and add in our eight ounces of pasta and then on top of our pasta is where we're going to go ahead and add in our chicken mixture. So we're just going to scoop it on top of our actual pasta in our instant pot and then we'll get ready to cook it just a little bit longer. So I've added my chicken cream cheese ranch mixture to the top of my noodles. I did add just a tiny bit of hot sauce as well so then we are going to put our lid on and we are going to again set our instant pot on manual but this time we're only going to do it for four minutes and that is enough time to cook down the pasta.  So I did decide to use all of the cheese which is four ounces of the light shredded cheese so I'm just going to put that on top and the best way to melt the cheese if you don't want to go a whole nother pan route sorry there we go is to just put your instant pot lid on for just a few minutes give the cheese a chance to melt I'll plate this up and show you dinner look at this dinner look at that cheesy creamy deliciousness so I'm going to go ahead and get this plate did up one sixth of this is a serving so I'm going to go ahead and get that on my plate and I will show you what a serving size looks like and give you the smart points but look at this yummy so here is dinner yum look at this so I went ahead and topped it with one half of a tablespoon of these real bacon bits that is zero points for half of a tablespoon so what I have here is one sixth of our buffalo chicken pasta look at this cheesy pasta bacony deliciousness so that is a total of six smart points so one sixth of the recipe six smart points and then we're just having some broccoli and cauliflower with a little bit of spray butter salt and pepper so this entire dinner is a total of six smart points for tonight's dinner we are making instant pot teriyaki chicken I am making quite a few modifications to the original recipe the original recipe wants you to make your own teriyaki I'm going to use a pre-bought one because it is zero points other than that our recipe is going to be the same so this is very simple super quick let me show you what's in tonight's dinner so of course you're going to need chicken breasts the recipe calls for thighs but I'm going to go ahead and use chicken breasts we're also going to need either some ground ginger or fresh ginger cornstarch garlic I'm going to go ahead and just use this dried garlic I bought bought this at Costco it just really makes it a lot easier and lasts a very long time and I'm actually going to use GQ sugar-free teriyaki marinade instead of making my own this will save a lot of steps and this marinade is zero points it's only five calories for a tablespoon and then of course we're going to need some rice so let's get started on tonight's dinner so the first thing we need to do is go ahead and add your chicken to a ziploc bag we are then going to add in our teriyaki marinade it does want this to marinade for about 20 minutes I'm going to add about half of the bottle I think that that's 20 for my three chicken breasts so I'm going to get this kind of mixed together and I'm going to throw this into the fridge while we put together the rest of our ingredients and get our instant pot out so the first thing you are going to do is place your chicken with your teriyaki sauce into your instant pot look at how delicious that looks to this we are going to be adding in a little bit of ginger now again you can use fresh ginger or ground ginger so I decided just to go ahead and top it with just a little bit of ginger this marinade is going to be super flavorful so we don't need to go too crazy on the seasoning and then I'm also going to add in a little bit of my lighthouse garlic as well just to kind of give it that little extra boost of garlicky goodness and then from here we are going to take the steamer rack for instant pot so this is what it looks like and we're actually going to place it on top of our chicken and then you're going to need a dish that will be safe in your instant pot and you're going to place it on top of the steamer rack to your dish is where we're going to go ahead and add in our one cup of rice and then we are also going to be adding in our water so we want to make sure that our rice is fully covered in water and then we are ready to get this going so we're going to put our lid on and we'll get it started so to cook our chicken and rice we're actually going to use the manual button and we want to go ahead and cook it for six minutes on high pressure and then once it is done cooking for six minutes we're going to naturally release it for 10 so I'll be back in about six minutes once your six minutes is up your instant pot is automatically going to natural release so we want to do that for 10 minutes so this dial will read 10 and then we will release the rest of the pressure and take a look at tonight's dinner once your instant pot reads 10 minutes of natural release we're just going to go up here and turn this and vent out any remaining steam which it does not look like there's any and then we'll remove the lid and take a look at our dinner so there is our rice it is perfectly done I'm going to use my little silicone mitt that came in my accessory pack for my instant pot which I purchased on amazon it is linked down in my amazon store there is our rack so we're going to get that removed and I'm actually going to shred up my chicken in the teriyaki sauce once you get your chicken shredded this is where you can add in some corn starch to thicken your teriyaki but I'm pretty good with the thickness of it and I do want it to kind of drizzle over my rice so I'm going to go ahead and plate up my chicken in teriyaki and my rice and I'll show you the completed meal and give you the smart points so here is tonight's dinner this looks delicious so first I just have some organic mixed veggies I just sprayed those with a little bit of I can't believe it's not butter spray salt and pepper so that is zero then over here is my teriyaki chicken so what I have is one half of a cup cooked of white rice so that is a total of three smart points I did just go ahead and measure that here just using a half of a cup per serving so I have half of a cup of white rice for three and then I topped it with my teriyaki chicken a little bit of the teriyaki sauce that is zero so this entire dinner is a total of three smart points teriyaki chicken and rice and veggies for three points thank you for joining me on the third episode in my w w
