So I hope you guys enjoyed this tutorial Remember to subscribe and like this video and I will catch you all later. Bye


Machine Gun Kelly also known as Colson Baker is an American rapper and actor who's emerged as one of the most unique and popular artists working in the music industry today. He's released five studio albums to this point in time and will be dropping his newest pop punk album Tickets to My Downfall sometime in the very near future. Between writing new music and appearing in films like The King of Staten Island and the upcoming Midnight in the Switchgrass, Kelly was keeping super busy before the pandemic came in and rocked all of our worlds. When Los Angeles announced a shelter in place back in March, Kelly took things seriously and battled up the hatches at his Los Angeles home in San Fernando Valley. Here he decided to entertain us all by dropping frequent lockdown sessions and even released a music video for his song Bloody Valentine that was reportedly filmed at his home. In addition to finding a way to keep his legion of fans entertained in the midst of a worldwide quarantine, Kelly has also managed to find time to flame tabloid rumors regarding his new relationship with his bloody Valentine co-star Megan Fox who he just did a house tour on too. He's also been filming his lockdown sessions from his home in the San Fernando Valley, California using nothing more than his iPhone. He began appropriately enough with a cover of Paramore's Miserie Business before eventually going on to perform the likes of Oasis, Rihanna and John Mayer. Needless to say, Machine Gun Kelly has been as busy during quarantine as he's ever been and while his song selection in the stripped down aesthetics of his arrangements are about as hardcore as the squeeze toy, he's managed to make this new artistic output fit in with his overall persona. His videos have drawn as many as 26 million views for each post and they've even cracked YouTube's top 20 songs of the week. His label has told him that these off-the-cuff posts have garnered him more online engagement than any of his music videos ever have. But as well as things have been going for Kelly, his life hasn't been without recent loss. One of the biggest fans of his lockdown sessions was his father he told the New York Times. He's so stoked that I'm playing guitar now. He called me the other day and told me that he's really starting to enjoy my music and he's super proud of me. Unfortunately Kelly's father was suffering from an undisclosed illness over the past few months and was spending time in the hospital. Last week he tragically passed away. Kelly was understandably devastated by the loss but after a few days of grieving he hopped onto twitter and let us know that despite everything he would soon be getting back to work. Will shelter at home orders finally starting to loosen around the world? That might mean heading back to set to finish shooting Midnight in the Switchgrass but it also might mean he's getting up for some more lockdown sessions from the comfort of his own home. So today I thought I'd take you guys on an inside look at two of Machine Gun Kelly's homes, one that he definitely lives in and one that's more of a question mark but we're showing off nonetheless. Hey guys it's Kara and today we're taking a look at two of the Los Angeles homes for rapper and actor Short and Air Machine Gun Kelly here for you on Famous Entertainment. His fans have had a front row seat his living room during the course of his lockdown sessions so today I thought I'd see if I could find you guys a look at the rest of it. Plus I've got some inside details at what looks like the luxury residence he shot his Bloody Valentine video at. If you liked these videos make sure you're subscribed and ring that bell to be notified when we post so you can always be up to date. We've also done house tours on the likes of Megan Fox and Two Chains and we'll link to some at the end. Follow me on instagram to chat and as usual let me know who's house tours next in those comments down below. Now let's get into this video. Things first we're going to take a look at an apartment that if it isn't the exact home he shot his music video for Bloody Valentine in then it's pretty damn close. Here's the thing once Bloody Valentine dropped it was reported that Machine Gun Kelly filmed the entire thing from the comfort of his own place. This is a detail that was probably widely assumed considering that Kelly released the video during the middle of a worldwide pandemic with multiple shelter at home orders in place. The thing is I can find no other details anywhere to verify that Machine Gun Kelly owns anything more than one home in the San Fernando Valley which is a home shown in this video is definitely not. That being said considering this is a home he's been attached to through multiple rumors I thought that I'd at least give you guys the rundown of a listing that might not be the exact location he shot the video but it's extremely close. This 25 million dollar residence is referred to as the Calvin Klein home because it was once owned by the world famous fashion entrepreneur. It was designed by Paul McLean with striking features and dramatic 13 foot ceilings with automated disappearing walls of glass that open to allow access to a roof top yard and an infinity-edge pool. While you're out there you can enjoy the views of the Los Angeles basin with sight lines including not only downtown LA but the Pacific Ocean as well. The master suite is one of five ensuite bedrooms and seven full bathrooms and the inside of the apartment also features a striking water lounge with bar and fireplace overlooking a cascading double height water feature and living walls with a luxurious screening room as well. It also features a beautiful large scale garage and dramatic sky deck for entertainment purposes that features jetliner views as they soar in the sky directly above you. Needless to say pretty much everyone would love to live in a place like this which might help explain why Machine Gun Kelly chose to feature his glass house in his video. Alright now we've come to the main event the home that we know Machine Gun Kelly owns. It's a Spanish style six bedroom three story house. It's located in the Sherman Oaks neighborhood in the San Fernando Valley in Los Angeles California. Specific details for this home are practically non-existent since he hasn't put it up for sale yet but after featuring his home in a video from Monster Energy I was able to glean a few details from the inside. For one it features a pretty roomy two-car garage where you can often see Kelly's Range Rover and eye-popping yellow Chevrolet Camaro parked outside. During his tour with Monster he also showed off his ensuite style bedroom that featured a massive bed and an even bigger walking closet featuring a ton of outfits all of which look like Kelly's trademark style. He seemingly turned one of the spare bedrooms into a makeshift drumming studio. He's also decked out his living room as an electronic guitar museum with six strings aplenty. His game room features a massive pool table and the walls are adorned with his many awards and album commemorations. The home also features a top of the line kitchen but that doesn't mean he's all that great at using it. He's also turned what appears to be an outdoor guest house into a recording studio with some extreme mood lighting that he's nicknamed the boulevard. If that space doesn't inspire some dope lyrics I don't know what will. Then there's his living room which is perhaps best known for his lockdown session videos and features lots of open space for activities galore. Finally out back he's got a giant pool that's great for having friends over and practicing the art of the perfect cannonball. Kelly likes to throw huge parties at his home but after quarantine came in and shed everything down his 30th birthday passed without much fanfare. Instead of throwing his usual Gatsby-esque type event he settled for just gathering with his bandmates. He said, I was really scared that I was going to have this empty feeling because partying wasn't there. Ironically just me sitting in my house chilling with my closest friends was the most fulfilling thing ever. And while Kelly might refer to his birthday gathering as a small affair his next door neighbor flipping out star Jeff Lewis decidedly does not. During the course of his serious XM show Jeff would let the world know that Kelly had a ton of friends over for his party and that his celebrations can often get out of hand. And he said it was actually going to turn into the movie Neighbors and that he is Zac Efron which means that I'm f***ing Seth Rogen. As you can see from that clip Kelly was having a bit of fun with the matter at his neighbors expense but it's all good now with the two eventually making peace over the matter and being able to laugh about it over social media. And with the resolution of that feud we've come to the end of our video taking a look at the homes both real and let's just call it theoretical for Machine Gun Kelly. If I'm being honest with you guys I really don't think Kelly owns the place where he shot Bloody Valentine. The average selling price for a home like that far exceeds Kelly's estimated net worth of around 10 million dollars. I think it's far more likely that he used an empty residence to shoot the majority of the video and then maybe completed shooting it with some pickup shots from his actual home as a bedroom featured in that video does have a passing resemblance to the one he showed Monster during his house tour.  That being said if I was living in Kelly's San Fernando home I'd be more than satisfied as it's super nice in its own right. But what do you guys think? Where would you rather live? Let me know in the comments and be sure to follow me on Instagram. Alright guys I'll see you in the next video. Bye!


This hangout is on live this hangout on air is live not on live on live would be that service that let you game over the internet Hey, we're gonna be talking food today. Michael Wolf is here. How's it going? Doing great. Thanks for having me guys I'm so I hope we don't get Veronica Gerd Too late for that. I can't give it to me. I already got it. I already got it No, I have no shame in talking about my various issues You never have been one to you don't I don't feel like you overshare either, but you're not I Try not to be gross. Yeah, but you're also like no, it's fine. It's true It's just a thing that happens. Yeah, I think a lot of people suffer from these kinds of things so they can relate Yeah, and it helps destigmatize it. Oh TV is my girlfriend says he sleeps on his side and it works. Okay, the angle With the angle I'll maybe I'll try They'll try propping myself up on more pillows on the side, but I'll probably get a neck kink like I did last time What happened to your last neck King? Oh, I so I got deposed We'll toss it in a move. Yeah, you know Well, Dega took it. I am hungry now. I'm hungry. Well, let's have a show where we talk a lot about food Let's eat on the show. Oh, I'd be amazing if it's the theme Yeah, I don't know what I'm gonna do for lunch. I Had Salad that I made and some smoked salmon for lunch.  I don't like saying I don't really actually like fish You just want the protein, right?  Yeah, all the bottom for your bottom feeder Yeah My Jewish ancestors would not be amused Unfortunately Rob locks. It's so good Yeah All right. Well, here we go. Let's go. Yeah, click on. Are you ready? I'm ready Okay This is the Daily Tech news for Monday, July 11th, 2016 I'm Tom Mary joining me today as she does most Tuesdays Veronica Belmont host of sword and laser is with us How's it going Veronica? Good, but it's Monday, Tom.  You sure did. I got the right person at least I'm not Patrick Beja. No, you're not Patrick Beja. It's not Tuesday. That will happen tomorrow. It is Monday Why did I say Tuesday? It's not even written. I can't blame anyone else that would that just came out of my own head But joining us this lovely Tuesday is Michael Wolf host of the smart kitchen show. I bet you didn't even know it was Tuesday Oh, I'm do I'm disoriented from all the Pokemon go I played this weekend. Maybe you are too Did you did you play a bunch? Do you have with my son? You was trying to show me what's going on. All right Well, we've got a lot to talk about with Pokemon go. So let's get right into the top stories Analytics company similar web estimates Pokemon Go is installed on more US Android devices than Tinder and is approaching Twitter If it hasn't passed it already in daily active users Morgan Stanley's me and Nagasaki told CNBC that Pokemon Go is estimated to have made between 3.9 and 4.9 million dollars on its first day alone So people are not only playing it they're making it at purchases game is out in Australia, New Zealand and the United States Imagine what's gonna happen when it gets to Japan and other places around the world There is some concern being expressed about the level of permissions that Pokemon Go asks you for If you log in using your Google account the permissions are similar to Ingress, which is also made by Niantic Labs But the application gets full permissions in some cases and I've verified that it did this for me as well I think Veronica did it for you too, right? Has full permissions now though. I don't remember it asking me for those permissions I remember it asked me once but I removed it and re-added it today and it didn't ask me this time The application when it has full permission can see and modify nearly all the information in your Google account That would mean Google Docs that would mean email But it cannot change your password delete your account or pay with Google Wallet on your behalf It does mean it gets access to location and camera and Mike as well What's interesting is the people who are saying they have installed it with minimum permissions say it still works Because an Android you can say no, I don't want to give it permission It just logs you back out and then you have to log in again and it works fine. So To me it seems like this is just a sloppy integration and one of my problems with Pokemon Go has been every time I want to go try it. I have to log in again It never remembers my log in when I do a majority of the time It is the servers aren't available and even if the server is available then I have to walk three blocks and I'm like forget it Yeah, I mean I'm having a ton. I am I'm pretty appalled by by the level of quality of the app It's it's not a good app I mean, I think I can pretty much come out there and objectively say it This I think you know, this is gonna be a real test of the the two week test If you will to see if people continue playing after a two week period or not I think right now it's really running on the the power of the Pokemon on name More than anything else the app is really fun to use But it's it's ability to work and function properly is very upsetting I mean, I've had the same log in issues you have it logs me out probably four out of five times It loses its connection to the database. It freezes. It crashed my phone completely yesterday I had to restart my phone entirely There's been a lot of issues with that and they have a lot of work to do And I don't know if it's just because of the sheer number the influx of people that they've had over the past week That's causing a lot of these issues, but it's it's not great I mean, it's making me play less because of the uptime of the app just working in general I'll be walking down the street and it'll just freeze and I'll be like mid Pokemon And I can't do anything about it And then I lose the Pokemon and that's that's gonna be a problem for a lot of people My my son's been playing pretty much non-stop since and I agree with you like I don't know if it's server issues or just bad design Probably maybe a combination of both, but if the kids are the test the kids love it and I he you know He hasn't played with Pokemon for years And he I think kids have a maybe a higher tolerance for glitchy apps Especially free apps and he's been we were we I took him to his grandparents today He caught five Pokemon on the way over there. It's really fun I mean, I I've been loving it if it worked a hundred percent of the time I would be obsession level, you know red at this point I I'm really enjoying the concept of it and I love that it's getting people to to get up and walk around But Pokemon zombies are a thing and they are Obvious when you're walking down the street near a popular poke stop And it's it's pretty fascinating to watch this kind of thing totally sweep the nation right now Yeah, and like any of these things if you are not having the problems logging in which can happen just by randomness You're gonna think it's great. I don't understand why people are upset about it Or if you're on the other end of that bell curve like I am and it seems to happen every time you try to log in Then you're gonna think it's awful. They'll probably work that stuff out though, and it obviously is popular I mean businesses are saying hey, we're a poke stop come on in for free wi-fi and have a coffee other Businesses are saying this is for paying customers only no Pokemon Pokemon for paying customers. Yeah You know fallon, missouri. There was a report that police are watching potential burglaries Start to be organized around people who aren't paying attention to pokemon collectors You hear a lot of people there was that darwin australia We mentioned last week saying hey look what both ways before you're crossing the street People are starting to complain. Hey, if there's you know blind people around you keep your eyes out They're they're they're not going to expect you to be stopping and moving around pokemon style There's all kinds of things being discussed about this because so many people are using it. Yeah It seems like it's tapping into the early interest or was around geocaching among the young kids It seems a little bit like uh The excitement around early four square days when there's obviously some geolocation But uh, this is exactly. I'm sorry. I that is exactly what I said yesterday I'm like this is like the bastard child of swarm four square and geocaching It's just like the combination of those two with augmented reality It seems like the first maybe mass market augmented reality adoption like in in a weekend Yeah, well, it's ingress But with a massively popular ip attached to it So that everyone born in the 80s and afterwards has this nostalgia Around it uh saying. Oh my gosh. It's pokemon. I grew up on pokemon And my dream was always to be able to actually go out in the world and catch pokemon and how I can Well, I don't know if you heard the story but a clefairy is holding court at the west borough baptist church Jim and it is the biggest most powerful clefairy and it is bright pink and it is owning that spot So, you know, some good can come of it Uh, that's that's amazing. I it is interesting to see all of these points I I wonder how much they expected this to happen where these interest points get swarmed Uh by so many people it's it's a little bit of the spam effect. You don't need that many percentage of the population playing it to have a huge percentage uptick in the number of people visiting any one particular point It's that they all have to go to that one particular point I've been meeting people in public. I've been chatting with strangers I've been like hanging out with people who never would have given me the time of day Or we just would have been two ships passing in the night And I think it's it's incredible And yeah, there's going to be some some dark things that come from it in terms of people getting Their phones ripped off or or coordinated robbery attempts around pokey stops But at the same time, I think a lot of good of it will come well good good will come of it as well Yeah, it changes social behavior. So other social behaviors are going to adapt to it. That is that should not be much of a surprise All right Well, moving on away from the pokemons just for a little bit a consumer reports has tested the samsung galaxy s7 Active's water resistance the s7 is rated at ip68 Meaning it should survive 30 minutes of submersion and up to five feet of water in a tank of water pressurized To 2.12 pounds the same as five feet One phone's touchscreen died and showed green lines and had bubbles infiltrate the cameras A second phone screen turned on and off every few seconds and had water in the camera lenses and sim card slot The phones would turn on after drying out, but the screens could not be read The odd thing is that the regular s7 and s7 edge passed consumer reports tests Yeah, the active is the one uh, that's supposed to be more rugged and more durable And it's the one not holding up as well at least in these particular tests. They tried too hard. Maybe I don't know. I don't know uh, and I wonder how many people really It it is one of those things we're like, look if you're telling me it's ip68 they should all work at ip68 So even if this isn't a representative sample Two of the phones one of them certainly should have should have held up. So that's problematic I don't know how many people were really Going to rely on this working at up to five feet of water if you're going to promote it It should work. I mean if that's going to be one of your features It should should work as as as expected. I mean it's like why say you have that ability if you don't actually have that ability Yeah, if you're going to have that certification it should live up to it Although Samsung says they haven't had a lot of consumer complaints. So It isn't in practice causing a problem, but that doesn't change the principle Twitter has reached a deal with cbs to stream the networks coverage of the u.s democrat and republican conventions The republican national convention will take place in cleveland july 18th through the 21st Democrats convene in philadelphia july 25th through the 28th Twitter also sent a cease and desist to a site called post ghost That was archiving deleted tweets by public figures twitter's api requires You to show tweets as they are shown on twitter and that includes respecting deletion If you remember there is a service called poly troops that archives politicians deleted tweets They were originally cut off at the api and had to negotiate an agreement with twitter to say like hey It's in the public interest for politicians tweets to be archived. Please let us do this and now they do post ghost Did not have any relationship with twitter and was doing more than just politicians. They were doing celebrities as well Yeah, yeah, I can definitely see why that would be a slightly different use case But I still believe that politicians tweets should be should be properly archived. I think it's important for for decision-making purposes But moving on again zd nets mary joe foley notes microsoft has updated its skype bot developer platform Bots can now take part in group conversations And the bots can also use visual image cards carousel cards and receipt cards Skype is also working with bing to enable natural language understanding through bing entity and intent detection Other microsoft bot framework updates this month includes skype calling slack buttons and facebook bot features The framework is still in preview, but expected to be generally available by the end of calendar 2016 More bots man more the more bots the better Yeah, there's all sorts of there was all sorts of big news this past week You know if you if you want to stay up to date Well, I mean you should subscribe to my newsletter. That was not going to be a Hey, why not it's a do it to the story and certainly it's organic But venture b is doing unbelievable bot coverage and and I probably get about 90 of my bot news over there They're just killing it, but zd net also written up. So that's great to hear Did venture b do the deep dive on nadella's uh betting microsoft's future on ai? I think so. Yeah Yeah, they have like three people working pretty regularly on bot stuff and they're they're crushing it Yeah, peter wells was talking about that piece yesterday, uh on the day six episode The significance of this is you know is not so much What they did but the continuing development the 30 000 plus developers that are making bots on the skype platform And and so the potential of what will eventually come out of there I I don't know if either one of you know of anything I haven't heard of anything particularly on the skype bot. That's really catching people's attention But it's it's still pretty early in the game Yeah, still waiting for that that killer bot that kind of kicks everything forward in a big way the the big hit as it were Yeah, uh facebook has clarified its existing policy on live video after video of the aftermath of the shooting death Of philando castile in minnesota july 7th the video disappeared if you remember shortly Afterward and then was restored with regard to violent or graphic images facebook says quote Context and degree are everything as an example facebook said a video meant to raise awareness Or perhaps find a shooter would be allowed whereas a video mocking a victim or celebrating a shooting would not Facebook says the team is on call at all times and will respond to even one complaint A video can either be left up after a complaint It can be removed after a complaint or left up with a warning about the graphic nature of the content It's up to that team to decide and it's it's fair to note here This is not a new policy for facebook. This is facebook clarifying This is our existing policy and this is how we intend to implement it Do we know? I mean, I guess we just don't really know what happened there yet in terms of who made that decision And you know, I think it must have just been a very quick decision made by someone who didn't necessarily Know what was going on why it disappeared briefly. Yeah. Yeah I've heard people say it may have been the police Seizing the phone afterwards and pulling it down, but I don't know that there's any confirmation on that either Okay, was that policy in place tom? Before they went to live because lives fairly new there, right? So yeah, I think this policy went into a place with live with live Okay, uh, but I don't have Facebook's you know confirmation on that but I know it it has existed for a while and so that that's my guess kind of And and and again, this is this is facebook clarifying saying, okay, this is what we're supposed to do in these situations They're calling it a glitch that it disappeared. So that just kind of leaves it vague But like you said Veronica, it could have been somebody who who misinterpreted the situation or overreacted But this is the kind of video that according to their existing policy should be left up It's good to know and you know, this is all it's all a learning process People are figuring this stuff out in real time as we go So it's to be expected that some some flubs will happen for sure W. Scott is one in the chat room says he saw a warning for graphic content on a facebook video before live launch So it may even pre-exist that Bloomberg reports russian president vladimir putin pledged support for hyperloop development during talks with hyperloop one co-founder shirvin prishavar Uh, pishavar at a forum in st. petersburg last month Uh presidential spokesperson dmitry peskov told bloomberg the president quote promise state backing for implementing it Russian freight tycoon. Oh boy ziavuden magomedov. Thank you. Good job And the state's russian direct investment fund are investors in hyperloop one russia is involved in study of several projects Including one in china and several around moscow I butchered his name in daily tech headlines earlier today, so Yeah, it is interesting to see Okay, you know hyperloop was sketched out by elan musk and la to san francisco is used as the example of course because silicon valley But it does seem that russia is very interested in this very interested in developing it and because of its Rocky negotiations and sanctions being put upon it by the west is turning to china as an investment partner It would be interesting if all of these plans ended up that a chinese hyperloop Became the first to go into existence with russian funding behind it. Is this going to be like not the moon race It's going to be the hyperloop race hyperloop race. Yeah Uh, I I mean not quite as dramatic as getting off the planet Uh, but pretty interesting technology to see if it could be made happen to happen and overall probably more lucrative Well, and we've gone. I don't know. I'm just sort of realizing this as we're talking about it and and michael I don't know how much you've covered this but the conversation has certainly changed from will this ever happen? Are these companies for real to what deals are they talking to people about? And when they're going to meet with the leaders of the biggest Countries in the world like to make these deals like this isn't just nothing. This is like a pretty big f in deal and this may actually Cause the leaders in the west to say hey well, maybe we should pay attention if they're out talking to russia and china So it could also be just a shrew negotiating Yeah, it it certainly wouldn't uh be a bad move on hyperloop one's point case to say like hey, you know We've got lots of interest if anybody else wants to get in on this Uh, because they hyperloop one as I like to point out regularly There's the one that's testing in california the one testing in nevada hyperloop one is the one testing in nevada north of las vegas Thanks to all those who participate in our subreddit You can submit stories and vote on them at dailytechnewshow.reddit.com We had stories today from teaglass 1976 motang steve iow Steve iow had a lot of them today actually loki roberts in there obituella condol say you could be in there too Or your votes can help us decide what to put in our shows go to dailytechnewshow.reddit.com That's a look at the top stories Let's talk a little bit about The smart home and particularly about kitchens Michael I was reading some of the links you said over from smartkitchensummit.com And the one that really caught me was retailers saying, you know what we really like smart kitchen appliances Because it turns out people actually buy them and keep them rather than returning them. Yeah Yeah, I mean I I've I follow smart home a lot and followed the retail story and it's largely been an abysmal story you've seen guys like Staples launch around smart home platforms and and products and they basically shut that down You've seen companies like wink come and go So there's been a lot of turbulence at retail, but it seems as if and I went and talked to a few retailers wim Sonoma beta best buy they all like this idea of Connected kitchen products and the reason is a couple things a brings For example Millennials into the kitchen And also it these are products that people are willing to buy and keep even if they aren't using as much They're willing to stick them in the shelf in the in the drawers and try them out later So the return rates tend to be lower And companies like target are jumping all in they they're rolling out a novice sous vide machines to 1800 stores nationwide So it's an interesting category I want the sous vide machine You haven't you haven't cooked sous vide yet. No, I mean why I have I've had it before but I've never had my own sous vide machine So that's my kids love my steak sandwiches like I'm a hero with the steak sandwiches on there Well, it's sous vide for people who don't know is a slower cooking in a lower temperature But it's a bath of water And I guess one of the things Michael that you need to pay attention to a sous vide Is that temperature and make sure that it's consistent and and apps and connected devices certainly help you do that Without having to stand there and look over it Yeah, it's part of this broader movement towards what people are calling precision cooking This idea of sous vide it's been a cooking technique. So that's been in professional kitchens for 20 30 years But back in the early 2000s guys like Nathan Mirvold The former cto microsoft really started to pay attention. There's talk about it in foodie Forms like egullet and what happened is he he died deep on it. He eventually published this book called modernist cuisine But by then all the foodies have kind of gotten on this sous vide train Now what's interesting though? Everyone who was in that first movement around sous vide Is looking at what's next and there's guys looking at you know connected ovens What i'm calling guided cooking systems where you Coordinate a you know, maybe a bluetooth connected pan with an induction heating surface And you have like an app to control the entire experience. There's a lot of innovation going on around cooking systems right now Yeah, tell us a little boy Let's talk a little more about guided cooking because I think that's where it gets really interesting I I think most people think of smart kitchen appliances and they're like All right, so I can control the blender with an app or I can control the the temperature of the pan with an app So what how does that actually help me? It seems like these can actually save you steps Yeah, I mean, I think there's been some like smart home been some like let's add wi-fi to this See what happens type of products like the wemo crock pot And I mean they'll tell you that you know that didn't do great Do really well But you know, I was kind of convinced when I went to the house where shown chicago in march And I walked into the the heston booth heston q which is part of my or big Corporate cookware company and they put me in front of their house chef, which is his guy's name is philip tessier He helped the u.s. When the silver in what basically the olympics of cooking The boku door this guy is like the michael one of the michael jordan's are cooking So he goes cook fish for me and so I was like super nervous It's like playing basketball in front of michael jordan But it was an amazing experience where I cooked with their guided cooking system It had a connected pan and an app that did what I call visual guidance or what they they're kind of calling visual guidance Where you basically see the you know how it's cooked and you kind of see this level of done as you want And then you move on to the next step It's a really coordinated system of sensors cooking service an app that just makes you cook better And if you're starting to cook or if you don't cook frequently That's one of the biggest frustrations is you know reading a recipe and it says cook until done Well, if I knew when it was done, I wouldn't need the rest What does that mean? Yeah, I mean it could be this idea of using sensors. Um, you know, there are There's actually a lot of research going into uh, I guess image recognition There's a company that called in it that is working with whirlpool There's also the june oven I think you've probably talked about before that has a camera in it and it can recognize the level of cook It also can you know pre-program and almost put the oven on autopilot So we're getting out of this guy to cooking a little bit and looking at talking about ovens But all these sensors and and and sensor rays cameras are going into cooking devices And helping you cook along the way and that's that's a really interesting development as well Well, and it's interesting that you mentioned in it because They seem to be an example of a company that you wouldn't think of as a smart kitchen company But they are like the microsoft azure of this they're providing a platform play Yeah, it's a platform play and I it's funny. I follow them on social media And I saw their two founders take a took a photo with the the CEO of google I thought that's interesting like my an odds maker and me thought well Maybe the acquisition likelihood of them by google went up like 25 percent because they actually are kind of the like a google play Where they have this huge database of food And and and machine they're actually programming machines. They're actually putting all the recipes in machine language So it actually puts an oven on autopilot to cook things So if if google ever made like a kitchen play that would be like their play I love it And I feel like we're kind of at the stage now too where we're getting a lot of different Platforms or or different systems and we're having this problem all over with connected home type stuff But there doesn't really feel like there's a standard in place right now Yeah, how you bridge these experiences from buying to prep to storage to cook like that Kind of needs connective tissue And we're probably still early in this game. So I think what's doing well now are these point products like a sous vide cooking machine Or or stuff like that where it's just like one part of the process But I think you're right Veronica connecting all these things together Making them work well, I think and that's like a smart home, right? We're kind of looking for that as well in the smart home Yeah, I can see a pathway where if retailers are saying well, we're going to stock more start kitchen items because we don't get the returns on them That's great. That means there's more smart kitchen items out there being being sold to the consumer consumers are more likely to try them out More of them are available in the house And that is the tipping point for a smart home platform to be able to take off is enough people have them That you can get more people building on the platform. How close do you think we are to that? I think it's it's You know, I think it's going to take some time.  They're excited about this category Yeah, I think that smart home guys are actually looking at this categories Maybe another way to kind of bring people into the into the smart home fold But I'm excited about with this idea of technology in the kitchen It's enabling new ways to do things.  They're about to ship and so like whether it's home brew or Uh, you know doing new ways of cooking There's like all sorts of new ways and new types of food that I can maybe approach through technology that were largely unapproachable before I absolutely want this vision where Uh, you've got you've got some platform that has the data of the recipes You have uh some system whether it's a refrigerator or some other system that knows what ingredients I have And then it can say here are the recipes you can make today or here's a few things you can pick up at the store That will order for you on amazon or whatever delivered and then all you have to do is sit down and say, okay Yeah, I want to make you know, uh this this fish cassoulet and It tells you what just what to do like all right pull the fish out and and put it in the chopper And then take it out of the chopper and put it in the pan or maybe you don't even have to do that You know, maybe it'll get robotic, but it just really eases you along through all the procedures Yeah, I think you know, I think uh, Veronica you mentioned pack prika You know, I've used yumly all these like cooking your recipe and discovery apps They're all really excited about connecting to the hardware to where they kind of help can guide the experience But also you talk tom about shopping like so this almost idea of anticipatory Delivery of food to your house, you know, I've done blue apron I like this idea. I think you back to balla, but this idea of like the hardware You do your meal planning for the week for the day Maybe that day or the next day your food deliver your food is delivered with all the ingredients to make it I can see that happening. I just think we're it's going to take a while to get there Like and I think that's an expensive infrastructure to build Um, I I do want to talk about the juicero because I know bronca hates the idea It's like this controversial idea of the seven hundred dollar cold pressed juicer Yeah people either love the idea or hate it. Well, first of all, I think I think people are a little too obsessed with the idea of juicing in general I think just just from a health standpoint and this is just my own personal opinion So don't don't take this as fact But you know, I think juicing takes a lot of the good stuff like the fiber out of the vegetables We're supposed to be eating and there's a lot of sugar left behind so that's I juice occasionally We have a juicer. We have the omega juicer the the wire cutter recommended like juicer that people buy But I I'm unhappy with juicero because the juice packets are still expensive And they're DRM'd so like you can only if you get a juicero, you can only use the juicero packets for the rest of your lifespan of using this product and I don't know that kind of stuff. I'm not a curing fan. I'm not a not a I'm not that kind of product fan typically Um So I I like the idea of what they're doing and trying to make people have access to to easy juice drinking But I the product itself. I think is is is just problematic. What's a fascinating story because he's this guy, you know They raised 110 million dollars to build out an entire delivery system And they actually had to create a a plant to put the stuff in curd pods or whatever the pods are It's a fascinating story. You're right about the the DRM the way they explain that is There's only a five or six days shelf life on these on these pods and for them if it goes bad Uh, they don't want you they'll actually stop you from actually pressing that juice. Yeah That makes sense a certain degree, but also probably a little bit of protecting their investment So the the clones don't come in. Yeah. Yeah, it's a happy side effect Of managing spoilage that it protects their investment, right? They probably don't mind too much at all But I I think that's the biggest problem with this is Those kinds of systems are processing food. It's a different way Right, but it's but I I love the idea of our earlier scenario simply because If what you're saying could happen where it knows what ingredients you need to make your meal for the next day Those ingredients can be super fresh and delivered right to your door Rather than sitting in a warehouse and having to be managed for three to five days. The juice tastes pretty good I'm not trying to be a family But I agree with you. I mean there is a level of processing there I do like this idea of moving all the kind of the processing To the end points in the home embracing fresh food fresh food and I think that's part of this movement I think technology enables that over time But there are there is like a cost to time And I probably wouldn't put the time into juicing If unless someone actually made it real easy for me So this is something if it was cheaper I would consider the juicing the the juicing Yeah, juicing is not easy and it's kind of a messy process But what I love about having the omega juicer is that I can juice anything in my fridge anything That's like, you know, not that appealing looking anymore necessarily like the juice will still be fine So like it's a good way of kind of clearing out the fridge of your csa box from that week or or your leftover groceries Apple's got a few spots on it. Just yeah, just juice it juice it. It's like put a bird on it. Just juice it Absolutely, uh, well awesome. I I think we've solved the smart kitchen now It's all it's all done. Yeah, excellent. Uh, you can and we'll talk about this a little more But uh, you can check out smart kitchen summit.com if you want to find some of michael's Works on this and he writes for forbs and and elsewhere as well. Let's get to our pick of the day Uh, I somebody asked if we could check in on iroeero dot com That is the mesh networking wi-fi access point system. There's another one called luma that's out there as well There's several of these now. Uh, google has its own project as well But what they do is they try to improve the coverage, uh, in by Manipulating how the system the signal works and in iroe's case you get a pack of three is the most Advantages and then you use them to cover your house I have two levels in my house. So I had to put one downstairs So it was close enough to the to the main router But I could hook it up and then that one connects upstairs to an office And then that one connects to another one on the other side of the house and kind of provides blanket coverage On the other side None of them are line of sight that is one of the things they recommended is make them line of sight I'm like too many doors too many wells. Sorry can't make them line of sight But they do work and the one thing I would say originally They provided me better coverage of the house than my previous wi-fi access point did Because they were able to cover more area Even if they went offline a little more often And I would have to like kind of I'd go to the app and do a speed test and that that would seem to like Push them into reconnecting or I might have to turn off the wi-fi on my laptop and turn it back on Because it wasn't handling the handoff between the different points very well But lately I have not had to do that at all and that is the other Advantage to systems like luma or in this case iroe is that they learn over time What works and what doesn't in your particular geography and have have some software that adapts to that Is amazing to me that that sonos was doing mesh and doing it so well for so long And people are just now figuring out this idea of mesh wi-fi in the home I can I mean i'm glad iroe And luma jumped on board this I expect the large router makers to also get into these systems The secure secure fi almond router They just want certain almond three and that you're going to come out with a three pack That is essentially a mesh networking three pack. So It's good to hear your feedback I've played with a lot of repeaters that don't work very well. Yeah, so i'm excited to try these mesh networks repeaters never worked for me I just ended up having two access points because that worked better than repeaters veronica you're using the aroe though What's your experience? Yeah, aside from a little bit of a setup issues. Everything's been working really well I I can report no issues at the time of recording That's great. So and it's been good right from the beginning. Were you able to get a line of sight though? I wonder if that helped Not in every room Um, yeah, not in every room. Okay as far as I know Ryan set it up, but yeah, I think so just one in here right now I want Ryan to do a support call on it. It's watching right now. Yeah, don't let's not ever do that again Well, there you go folks That's one of my picks send your picks to feedback at daily tech news show dot com And you can find more picks at daily tech news show dot com picks slash picks Veronica, would you kick us off with the first message of the day? Oh, sure. Yes Let's see here message of the day. This one comes from carl He says hi carl from sunny stock home here chiming in about the discussion on e-voting in episode 2805 my biggest problem with e-voting is the right to vote for what you want without someone else knowing With e-voting you could have an oppressive husband for example that stands behind you and pressure you to vote for the right party I don't know how you could get around that problem. Thanks for the great show That's a that's a good point. I guess if you're voting at home, you you don't have the protection of being in your own voting booth Somewhere else It's like it feels on the surface as being more private because you're in your own home But potentially you're actually dealing with less privacy because your family members Or whoever else are around you at that time and I vote by mail I've ever since california made that an option that you could just do I have automatically voted by mail and I love that because I love the privacy of being home I sit there with my laptop. I research anything. I don't know. I feel like a more informed voter But I hadn't considered that aspect of it. Thankfully my wife does not loom over me until Here to vote for nor do I her either But yeah, if you suddenly made it where everyone was e-voting at home That could be an issue. So that that might be an argument to say. Well, let's let's still provide polling places for people Yeah, having the internet adoption is still not 100. So what what is the what do they say for people without connectivity? Yeah, you're gonna have to provide an option for them in any case right because connectivity isn't 100 and it won't be for quite a long time Judy wrote in and said I'm senior to senior geek gary by almost a decade and I also read most of my news online I read the local paper I'm sorry read the local paper get alerts from the la times use google alerts to pull in any news about relatives or special interest topics Like forest fires fukushima the kindle fire browser has a reader view for most web pages So it's far easier to read online than print news with its smudgy ink Audio books include a subscription to an audio version of the new york time. So I often to listen to that I also get a variety of podcasts from the bbc and late night live from australia Like a lot of americans who like to see the u.s as others see us I've also set up a twitter list to get info from various sources Uh, like maddow sanders and trump robert reisch han's rustling, etc I don't know how many senior geeks are out here, but on thinking about it I wonder if seniors in living facilities have guaranteed internet access rights Being condemned to daytime tv seems like cruel and unusual punishment I'll bet nobody thinks to add that to the medicare or medicaid for patients Hmm I I definitely have some firsthand thoughts on this because my mom lives in assisted living situation Did not want to go through the trouble she would have had to do to get internet It would have either had to been dial up or it would have been very costly To try to run in because there was no internet provided by the place So we finally got her a phone and now she uses an iphone loves it uses it for the internet like crazy In fact, she has an eight gigabyte a month plan Because she doesn't have wi-fi where she is so she uses all of her internet over the phone Good for her Well, yeah good for her but also bad for the bottom line because i'm paying for her So, yeah, I think there needs to be more more attention paid to like how do we how do we encourage internet to be rolled out to these kinds of places The no answers. Okay fine. I love I love technology And applying that to eldercare and kind of Older people as they get home. Yeah, I look at the smart home And there's some really interesting stuff going on Around using smart home technology to enable people to stay in their their homes longer. So i'm actually excited about Technology for for older folks for things like things like that Well, that is it for this episode of daily tech news show uh veronica belmont Thank you as always anything to let folks know about you can subscribe to my newsletter.

Thanks you guys. Yeah. Yeah, thanks The last time i was on we had a guy drawing a picture of our podcast. Oh, yeah, he's on fridays. That's when that was fun Yeah It's a good time good episode. Hey, thanks roger everyone uh No one brought up the replicators from star trek. Oh, you know what? I was about to mention that I was even going to give you a shout out to say you were mentioned in that before and then I got distracted Uh, but uh, let's go into the more important task of titles Now the one I like the most is actually turning a number five is d r m digital recipe management It's followed by chatting with strangers number one now Internet of wings Things um Pokemon for paying customers only hot tub food machine That's kind of gross nice.  Yeah, I get it. I get it. I get it is approval on hyperloop Millennials in the kitchen Wait, I have I have a short question. So michael are your kids in grade school or? My kids are uh, my my son's going into ninth grade my daughter's going into seventh So I'm right in the middle of like my hair my hair is graying. Um, but yeah, they're not good Oh, no, do they still teach home ec? In school, you know, I don't I don't think so Um, that's where it's kind of where I learned how to cook You know what my kids do and this is like why mix like they love tasty like They find recipes on tasty. They cook. They're like my son's cooking two three meals dinners a night for us Wow a week.  You're physically making things Yeah, you're becoming kind of a maker in a way, right? So that's really cool Does he stream on twitch because they have all the cooking now They do don't they? Yeah. No, he doesn't I've been telling him I actually do his video games on twitch, but he hasn't he could do both Would you guys prefer drinkable millennium copyright act? Sorry not to Go back to the titles I'm actually good with digital recipe management. I think that's okay. Cool. Although I do like the drinkable shout out to that That's a good one too. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah honorable mention Because it's one of the weird things like when I was in high school. I had a my english class with this One of my classmates and she did not know how to cook and I was explaining to her how to make an omelette And she tried it like three times My dad told me never to go to the kitchen again I don't even know if they have shop anymore.  We didn't have in high school. We didn't have woodshot the last shop class No, actually, no, I take that back We had A form of wood shop where they were basically building a like a little house or a cabin out by the football field And we had auto auto shop auto shop, but all that is gone now. It's all gone.   I remember was combined. So there was metal shop auto shop wood shop all in one Class and and you would you progress through levels freshman sophomore junior, but I'm old enough to remember They we had a typing class. Did you guys have?  Oh, that's great. Really? Child rearing class. Yeah, wait a minute. So in your high That was high school. Did you guys have a nursery or daycare? We had a daycare. Yeah I mentioned that to someone's like my high school had a daycare for all the Team moms like what school? It was a big public school for me. Yeah, it wasn't a daycare for the teen moms It was a daycare for adults in the area who wanted to bring their kids to daycare Oh, no ours ours was specifically for the teen mothers. Yeah, that makes sense too Uh, my high school had two a little over 2000 students. That's a big school. Yeah, mine had like 500 so They didn't have my graduating class was 500. We had the 900 We had 300 Wow We were one of the four with there's buyer Downey there is uh When I there was davis I did uh davis high and then modesto four we had four high schools now. They had fifth when I left joe hanson Boy, they spent a lot of money on that one. Yeah, we had one high school of four three towns How much you grow up? Greenville, Illinois. Okay So pocahontas and sereno Would feed into our high school But mulberry grove didn't want to be part when they consolidated the high schools in the 60s Uh, so mulberry grove had their own high school that keysport went into Veronica, where'd you grow up? Uh west hardford connecticut? Yeah, I've been out here in sf for 12 years It feels like a very long time now But yeah, we had typing uh, michael and I remember when after I graduated and before my brother got into school They changed it to keyboarding. Yeah, so they were still teaching you the the typing skill, but it was all on computers I mean I'm older than you. I'm like in my mid 40s. So and I want you guys are but like we had that But we also had machine like assembly language. We were actually learning basic And assembly language coding. Yeah, I thought was cool.  Yeah Yeah, but they didn't all have tape decks so Our our typing class I'm only a few years younger than you michael My typing class was either take typing or computers and that was a that was a class So you either took one the other if you want to do anything more advanced you'd have to go to the jc But you could get a high school graduation credits You would you basic they would transfer over so you just I took chemistry there because I hated my chemistry teacher I snuck into my junior high Office and found the number to their modem and I went home and tried to dial into my my apple 2 plus And I actually got in but I couldn't break into I was trying to actually find like the grades Never did though someone I knew did that It's because everyone saw fairs bueller. Yeah. No, so we saw war games. Yeah That was yeah fair that fairs bueller stay off wasn't it fairs bueller? He changes grade in there Well, is this is matthew braddock is the common link between both but I wanted to be matthew braddock in war games and not fairs bueller Well war games is interesting because those machines were old because you could see he pulls out an eight inch floppy when he war dials All those numbers war dials All right No, I'm just laughing why Wait, you didn't host a you didn't host a a bbs I did I did host a bbs in my bedroom that's awesome My home my home phone line and I could only use when my parents went to sleep. Did you ever princess fun? No I'm curious about your bbs like did it have a theme or is it just like a town like the one for stanford connecticut? No, it was just a bbs at my my boyfriend in high school and I hosted and you could come and play mods on mods That was it about how many people would be on it for I think at the most we had like four or five For mud that I remember That's enough logged in uh, oh you said enough. It just seems we didn't have a lot of friends That's what bbs playing most roger Sorry I didn't host a bbs either I did micro league baseball on my Commodore 64 We would play computer baseball leagues all summer. Did you do a draft? Our friends would do it We'd hold a draft. Oh, yeah, we do earl weaver Baseball it started with a draft and I wrote a program in Commodore basic That would take all of the stats from the back of the baseball cards that we drafted off of and create an outcome That would say well this team beat this team. That's cool And then when micro league baseball came around then we would draft within the program and the box score stack compiler disc Let us create our own teams That was the name my first band by the way Box score stack compiler disc. Yeah, they were great. They used to open for uh, 1541 didn't they? I'm reading all the Oh, so I guess westboro baptist church has fired back against the clifery with a pokeball Let's see what happened. Did they actually like try to Like dethrone it. I'm sure something hates pokeballs or something Let's see. Let's see It's unclear on whether or not. Okay hold on Breaking news. Is this happening as we speak? Yeah, this isn't clear whether or not the clifery has remained It wasn't all powerful. Apparently it's combat combat power was pretty low Oh, they've taken to social media Sign of the end times and jesus christ soon returning And this big picture of a cliff area. Yeah. Yeah Everything real or virtual enables proud sin in america. That's a sign of doom hashtag pokemon go Yes, yeah, see they know Yeah, they they just want they're very savvy people for for who they are Yeah, so but what do you do Because there's I read a story and I didn't get a chance to kind of evaluate how How valid it was but there was a guy who lived in a converted church Who was saying because it used to be a church it was marked as a landmark And all these people were coming into his front yard To catch pokeballs and he's like, what do we do about this? Like it's he's like, it's fine But it's a lot of people and it's all day and I don't really like yeah There's I mean there's a gym.  Yeah at a certain point. You may want to say like, you know, and I really don't want people ever Can I opt out of this? Yeah But it feels like you remember the the early days of the we Um, and you know, I remember the rubik's cube Like it feels like that could be one of these things we talk about in 20 years. Do you remember pokemon go pokemon go? Yeah, totally Do you remember uh, what was it crystal pepsi? What was the pepsi that was clear bringing crystal pepsi back? Oh, they are. Yeah Just don't bring new coke back I you know, I didn't realize they switched back For the longest time like out to the old recipe. Oh, I did. I love original coke Now I just like mexican coke like the stuff in the glass bottles that they sell casco Yeah, but they're gonna start using corn syrup in that too No, why why because it's cheaper in Mexico But they're going to make versions with sugar in it to export specifically to the united states That's interesting because the mexican like people from Mexico hate the taste of corn syrup. That's why they make it. So why would they That's weird. They finally Climatize them to it because of other brands or something. I guess. I don't know. I mean sugar is expensive compared to corn syrup Yeah, so apparently crystal pepsi hit the shelves again July 7th in canada and is coming august 8th in the u.s How come canonly gets everything first? Yeah, right? Said no one ever. Yeah, they get saline dion first brine adams brine adams well, it's I'm not sure if that's something to be proud of hockey players Can you tell how old I am that I went to brine adams and not just in beaver as a cultural reference? Yeah, that was that was good It was summer 69 if I remember anyone know, uh, um What's that canadian band gordon downy? Um, oh tragically hit tragically hit. That's the quintessential canada band right there All right, well that is thanks it for us. Yeah, thanks again, michael is great having you on come back soon Yeah, definitely. Thanks guys. Have a good one. You too. Bye. Take care. See y'all tomorrow. All right. Thanks y'all. Bye


Okay, guys, here's what we're going to do today. Today, we are going to start leveling in Dragonfly, even though I'm not a huge Retail Wild guy. I do really hope that Retail is good. I hope for the best for the game. We're actually going to level today with Bonnie. She has never played a Retail Wild before. I think it'll be interesting to level with somebody who's never played any Retail on top of this being a new expansion. I think it'll actually be a pretty cool viewing experience. Let's get it going. I think it'll be fun. Steelio, thank you for the five. Get the subs. Mr. Mustache, thank you for the five months. Hey, what are you doing? Yo, Bonnie's here. The servers are up. I have this list of rules for us playing together. Wait, you have a list of rules? No, not a list of rules. A list of rules. A list of rules. What rules? Rule number five. There you go. Rule number two. You are not allowed to yell at me. Wait, why not? Because I don't do well under pressure. Especially authoritative pressure. Do you do well without pressure? Rule number three. I will get lost. Okay. Okay. Okay. Well, here's the thing. This is a new expansion. Like, so we've never seen this. So I don't know where I'm going either. I'm not going to be able to follow you because I am terrible at that. So you're going to have to remember that every once in a while I might be like going in a different direction on accident and I'm not doing it on purpose. Sure. Rule number four. Well, here's my rules. When we're going somewhere, you have to follow me and not get lost. Stop saying that. And when I order food, I'm going to order food without you. Yeah, true. Which I just did, by the way. No, I'm just kidding. You want to poke pool? Yeah. Hell yeah. You have to help me respect. Rule number five. Well, because I'm fascinated by it because I also have HDMI. Um, it's fun. No, that's fine. Especially now. It's a new experience. I've never seen it before a year. I know that you need to level fast. I understand that. I know that you want to get up to the top of the league where all the big boys are because that's just you. This is your life and your career and your career. No, no, here's the difference. You eat, breathe and sleep. Wow. No, it's different. It's retail. Nobody cares about doing this fast. I'm scared. Because everything's time-gated. So even if you do something fast, it's kind of like, okay, whatever, because you can only do so much before next week anyway. So, so we don't... Wait, is retail like vacation classic? Retail is vacation classic. Okay. Retail is vacation classic. That's exactly what it is, Bonnie. She's waiting for the boat. Yeah, I mean, any second now, really. Hello? Yo, can you hear me? Okay, okay, okay. That's not the proper answer. Did you accept that quest when you logged in? Wait, hold on, Bonnie, you're on the wrong server. What? You're on the wrong server. Then who's this man? Then who's this S-man? No, no, so I told you... So I made a character on Kelthuzad for you. So you made another character on a different server. Yes, but so how retail works is you can play with people from different servers, but you can't do everything with people from different servers. So now we have to buy another boost. Yeah, yeah, we boosted on the wrong server. No, I'm not doing that. You boosted on the wrong server. You didn't check. Yeah, but why'd you... I made the character for you already. Yeah, then you should make sure it was on the right server before you boosted it. Because all I did was just stand there doing my hair. But why'd you change servers whenever we made... I didn't. I signed into... I signed into the... So maybe it automatically went to a different server? It did. It's possible. So now we have to do it again? Yes. Speak with Raytheon to learn of the council meeting. Yeah, I swear that it was an accident. I just clicked on it. Oh my God! Where's an Ibertofer's empty puppy collar? The saddest thing... I just clicked it. I didn't even know I could kill it. Whose dog is that? God. I didn't know I could even do that. Never really, my dog... Why did they let you do that? Did you get on the list? After killing that dog, I probably got on the list. You're gonna start clubbing seals next? Dude, I only twist seals. I don't club them. You know what I just realized? I forgot that they even have this. I have two Cedar mounts.  Oh, sorry, my screen was covered. Here, right-click me? Isn't this sick? What the heck? We're going on a trip In a little rocket ship Drifting through the sky Like the lines. Wait, where'd you learn that song? What is this? It's a rocket. It's a touring rocket. Look, look, look. And ready, you ready? You can right-click it again in there and you can hop on. What? Wait, come back, come back. Isn't that sick? I thought I was gonna die there. See, now it's like a submarine. I bet I'm faster than you still. Somehow, yeah, probably. Go stag form. Stag form. So they can... Oh, apparently it doesn't do it anymore. You used to be able to ride droids. Like, I... Yeah. How do you do it? Oh, it's a glyph. There's a glyph that you can get that I can hop on your back and then... But you can... Your forms can basically be like... Like two-seater. Okay, we should actually go level them. Do you see Rathion here to talk to him? What the heck? It says Hustian. Oh, yeah. Wait, shh. Net. And please, that you have accepted our invitation to the dragon isles, Lord Commander. During the dark days of the Cataclysm, the aspects made great sacrifices to save our world. The Alliance will answer the call and stand together with Dragonkind once again. Alexstrasza shall be most appreciative. Though, she will insist that you do not bring any lingering conflicts to her shores. You have my word that this will be an expedition, not a military maneuver. To honor our truce with the Horde, I have instructed the Explorers League to work in concert with the reliquary. Just think of all the ancient knowledge we can discover together. Okay, his voices are really cool and he almost like a goofy dragon. Not a place for outsiders to plunder. The dragon will accompany the Alliance on this journey, but it will take time to build trust between us. As a fellow soldier, I share your wariness, Azurothel. You two have found common ground already. I think he does. What is this? What is this? This is amazing. The dragon isles.  Keep your feet on the ground. Okay, so you want to complete this quest and then you want to talk to her? To be honest, Chat Party Sync is like kind of confusing, but it's something that's pretty good for retail. It's like a good thing to be able to play with players that like I've already done this quest so I don't know where you're at. That solved that problem pretty easily. So yeah, we're supposed to go around Stormwind and recruit people. So on the map, you can see me. So we're going to recruit this guy, Thaylin Darkamble. We need artisans for access to the dragon's eyes. Okay. Do you want to hop on most of the time or do you want to find your own? I don't mind. Okay. How do I hop off in midair? Is there a little like arrow on your hotbar? Like a little red arrow? Oh yeah. My admirers need space to appreciate the all my presence. Save this bracket. Did you talk to him? Yeah, he said that. Now if you'll excuse me, I must be off to make a name for myself. He does talk like an extra point. Hello, S-Fan. It's been a while and I wish we had more time to catch up, but you see I just had a rather enlightening. No, make that a foreboding. Yes, a foreboding conversation with an old friend. Sometimes a revelation can be both after all. I really must tell you of what I learned. Okay, so I think it's a cutscene. Ask him what happened. Remain. Oh, cutscene. Bunkhorn. Oh my God. I did not expect to see you again so soon, my friend. After you'd answered the call of the irons. Something has happened, Catcar. Something terrible. Something terrible. It all happened so quickly. And Rathian, young as he is... He listens to my chemical romance for sure. ...perhaps foolishly tried to stop it. But he was too late and already big. She let me live with a message. They are coming to cleanse the world of the Titan's stain. The Titan's stain? Huh? Titan's stain? Who is she? Is she? She is Razigath. This man's prettier than the lady. The lady is a dragon. Actually, so is he. And Carnot? Four dangerous sediments of the elemental forces. At the dawn of the aspects, our flights embraced the Titan's gifts. They did not. The war that followed was unimaginable. And it took all of our strength combined to banish them. If they were so dangerous, why were they not destroyed? I hadn't the heart to do it. We were once as clutchmates. What is a clutchmate? Titan, it seems, has not quelled their fury. And look at us. Should she free her kid now? We haven't the strength to stop them. And if it really crumbs hunger, is unleashed. Then we have no choice. If we are to be protect us once more. Oh, a clutch of eggs. They hatch together. Must be made anew. Our queen is determined, Kedgar. Thanks, Azaz. We've only just begun to find who we are again. And I fear that without help, we may never get the chance to see our future secured. Then it seems the mortal races, too, must answer.  Kedgar. And face the storms ahead. The new expansion's filled with cutscenes? Yeah. Yeah, classic. When do they start adding cutscenes in the game? Is it? Is it Kata? Wad? Oh, the Wrathgate cinematic. It technically was Wrath. You know, I've never done the Wrathgate quest. I didn't even do it while leveling. Yeah, wasn't that sick? Yeah, that was the same. Okay, so I turn in the quest to Wrathion, and he's leaving. But then there's another quest to turn in here, at Toddy Whiskers. Great news, Espan. The spearhead of our expedition has made landfall on the dragon isles. Thank you. Thanks to the efforts of yourself and other dragon-scale expedition members. We've established a protected landing site and made contact with the dragonfly exit... Frick! Not ecstasy. Embassy. Are you prepared to accompany us on our next voyage to the dragon isles? I think so. The expedition route should be long now. Dragon isles, unknown arrival time. What is this? There is much to discover. Sid, do you see this guy here? What is this? Crovo-friendly dragon isles dockmaster. Are you looking to travel to the dragon isles? The rugged dragon scale can get in there in no time. Is there a portal? We have a kid. No, we don't get on that boat. Waiting for the rugged dragon scale. This boat travels between Stormwind and the dragon isles. The boats are broken so they put a portal there. Wait, why is this guy so big? You have slept long. Dude, this is so annoying. People just get really big and they cover everything up so you can't see it. Portal to the walking shores. Come down here. And do you see like you can scroll?  And do you see in the bottom right-hand corner something that says portal to the walking shores? Yeah, I actually want to right click that. Yeah, you do want to right click that. And then it should take you to an outstrasa portal or cut the loading screen. Oh no. Wait, hold on. So can nobody even play? What's that mean? Is there the portal over here? Oh, it's not loading. It's not loading at all. So nobody can even play? I can get out of the screen. Yeah, we're just sitting here. You have one? This boat. Wait, what? Time until it right- We are united in purpose.  Farewell. Oh, that's funny. If you get on that boat, it pulls you back.


A day in the life of an EPIC teacher in South Korea. For those thinking of teaching English in South Korea, the EPIC program offers one of the best job opportunities in Asia. An acronym that stands for English program in Korea, EPIC hires native English teachers to co-teach, or lead English lessons in public elementary, middle, and high schools around the country. I got my start in the world of TEFL through the EPIC program, and fell in love with the lifestyle of an EFL teacher in Asia, so much so I stayed for two years. The work was enjoyable, my EPIC salary went a long way, the benefits were hard to beat, and the expat community I met through it all helped foster lifelong friendships I hold dearly to this day. So, who can teach English with EPIC? To be considered for a teaching position at EPIC, prospective teachers need to meet a few essential requirements. Be a native English speaker from the US, UK, Australia, Ireland, New Zealand, South Africa or Canada. Hold a bachelor's degree. Have a 120-plus-hour TEFL certificate if not a qualified teacher. Have a clean background and pass the application or interview process. If you meet the above specifications, EPIC may be an excellent fit for you. But what exactly does an EPIC teacher actually do on a day-to-day basis? Here's a breakdown of what you can expect on any given day teaching English in Korea with EPIC. A day in the life of an EPIC elementary teacher, a normal teaching schedule, 7 o'clock to 7.30 a.m. Wake up plus get ready. Rise and shine. Every school day I'd wake up around 7 o'clock or 7.30 to get ready for school. Depending on how far away you live from your assigned school, and how long it takes you to get out of bed in the morning, you'll probably find yourself in the same boat. 8 a.m. Walk to school. Most EPIC teachers are placed at apartments that are located close to their school, which means walking or biking to work will be an option for you. Some teachers get lucky and live just minutes from the school grounds, and others may be a bus ride away. It just depends. I personally live just under a mile or a 20-minute walk away, so I had to make sure I was out the door no later than 8 a.m. 8.30 a.m. School starts. The school bell rings promptly at 8.30 a.m., and that's when all of the students gather in their homerooms to go over morning announcements, and take care of anything they need with their homeroom teacher. As students prepare for their lessons, I'd be booting up my computer, gathering my lesson materials for the day, and taking care of any unfinished planning before setting off for my first lesson. As an English teacher, you'll most likely have your own desk and computer in a designated English office, with the other Korean English teachers you'll be co-teaching the lessons with. On days when I had my first period off, I'd head straight for the cattle and get a nice cup of coffee started. Your teaching schedule won't have every period of every day filled, so you'll have free periods periodically to plan and prepare for any upcoming camps, after school clubs or lessons. Epic teachers are only contracted to teach 22 class hours during the week, leaving 18 hours for admin tasks and a bit of desk warming. Get slang for sitting at your desk for long periods of time, often without much to do. 9 AM to 12 20 PM 1st, 4th periods 9 AM 1st period 9 50 AM 2nd period 10 40 AM 3rd period 11 30 AM 4th period Once 9 AM comes around, the school day goes into full swing. At public schools and Korea elementary school lessons run for 40 minutes, with a 10 minute break in between each period. Some schools have one longer 20 minute morning break to. For anyone considering teaching older kiddos, Korean middle school and high school teachers teach 45 minute and 50 minute lessons, respectively so their schedules are slightly different and go later in the day than for elementary. Your exact times and breaks will depend on your school and your principal, but these times should be roughly accurate. 12 10 PM to 1 10 PM lunch. Lunchtime. Let's make a beeline to the cafeteria and get in line for some hot Korean grub. Every lunch I'd eat together with my Korean co-teachers, before heading back to the office to enjoy the rest of our break before the 5th period. Most teachers opt to eat the school lunch since, it's usually super cheap, about $2 for a meal, and means hot and generally healthy food without any prep at home.  As epic teachers only work an 8 hour day, 8 30 AM to 4 30 PM, we're not actually allowed to leave the school grounds to go out for lunch. This lunch break is built into our daily schedule without having to stay an hour later to meet 8 hours of work, so the schools, a.k.a. the principals plus governing department of education, want to see teachers stick around. A bummer but also means we get to go home at 4 30 instead of 5 30. 1 10 PM to 2 40 PM 5th plus 6th periods, 1 10 PM 5th period, 2 PM 6th period. With our tummies full, it's time for the last two classes of the day.  Your job however will be to plan and facilitate activities, that help the students learn and practice these topics outside of the activities in the textbook. It's also our responsibility as an English teacher to manage the time and keep everyone focused and on track during class. Your Korean co-teacher is always in the room with you, or technically should be, and is there to lead half of the lesson and help translate or explain things in Korean when needed. As an epic teacher, my individual lessons often looked like this. The first five minutes of class we went over any homework or reviewed new and old vocabulary. The next 15 to 20 minutes we'd do the work from the textbook. And for the remaining 20 minutes, we'd play a more entertaining game or activity, sometimes a role play, PowerPoint game, group work, etc. 2 40 PM students go home. Once the 6th period is finished, the kids dash off to pack their bags and head home for the day. 2 40 PM to 4 30 PM lesson planning. Just because the students have left, doesn't mean we're finished with our day. In our epic contract, our shift doesn't end until 4 30 PM. These last couple of hours in the afternoon are for lesson prep, or that desk warming I mentioned earlier. I also had two after school talking clubs twice a week with my 5th and 6th graders for an hour each. I had total freedom to plan and create my own activities, so I would often let the students choose the English game so long as it had them talking and using the language. These after school teaching hours counted toward my 22 allotted teaching hours in the week. 4 30 PM freedom. We made it. Time to turn off the computer, turn off the lights, and lock up the office. Once home, kick back and relax, and rest up for another day of teaching tomorrow. Important things to know about epic. As with anything, your epic experience may be totally different and depends on your co-teachers, your students, your school, and the education department of the city you're placed in. But this schedule should give you a good idea of what a typical day in the life of an epic teacher looks like. Before I say goodbye, here are some important things I always share with teachers thinking of applying to epic. Some teachers may have more than one school placement, I had two, so coordinating classes and transportation will look different for everyone. Schools often host English summer and winter camps during school break, so you're still on the hook for teaching outside of regular school days. Get used to desk warming. One con to epic is that even during school holidays and the absence of camps, we nets, native English teachers, are still expected to come to school and sit at our desks unless we were using our allotted 26 days of vacation. That's how I got into blogging. The epic program has built in a ton of time for lesson planning, so you'll probably never have to worry about taking your work home with you, you'll almost always have time at school to get it done. Everyone's actual teaching experience in the classroom depends entirely on your style of teaching and your co-teachers. Some Korean co-teachers will take over and teach most of the class, while others have a more hands-off approach and will have you lead the entire lesson. Again, it just depends. There you have it, a typical day in the life of an epic elementary school teacher. Are you considering applying to teach English in Korea? Reach out and learn more about our TEFL certifications and how the application process works. Do you want to teach English abroad or online? Take a TEFL course.


Insta360 Go 3 quick release, and it's magnetic. Snaps right on there, doesn't go anywhere, just snaps on, but to get it off you've got to pinch these two buttons and it pops right off. Very good connection, not coming off, not bad at all for the magnets and the little clips on the sides. So then you push the clips and it comes right out. That's the Insta360 Go 3 quick release mount.


I think education and prosperity are the best tools for stopping crime. The middle class doesn't mug. If people are middle class, by and large, they're not going to be committing crimes. That's not zero. You're always going to have insider traders. You're always going to have people engaging in frauds of various kinds. But in terms of the dangerous crime that we fear on the street, prosperity is probably the best answer.

I just wanted to take a quick couple of minutes to review and recommend the final episode of Gravity Falls, which aired just earlier this week. It was a proper finale to the show. They set up a good science fiction premise, and they followed through with it. I liked the final conflict and the final resolution. And here's the thing that made me want to record a special video for this. The villain of the series, Bill Cipher. Why is he just a triangle? Why is he just a dimensionless geometric shape? Well the final episode gives us an answer. As you may have noticed, I've recently had a multi-dimensional makeover. But I wasn't always this way. You think those chains are tight? Imagine living in the second dimension. Flat minds in a flat world with flat dreams. I liberated my dimension, Stanford, and I'm here to liberate yours. That's right. He is a supervillain from Flatland. Those of you who have been watching my reviews with interest will remember how many times I've mentioned Flatland after I reviewed the first Flatland book. So this is of special interest to us. There was another moment in the show that I took note of. We're not scared of you. Oh, but you should be. Really use some decoration. I've mentioned before the mathematician author Rudy Rucker, who has many times written about creatures from other dimensions, and he's specifically written about Flatland repeatedly. Well, there's a story that he co-wrote with John Shirley called Pockets, and this moment made me think of that story in which invaders from higher dimensions, fifth or sixth dimension or whatever, were collecting living three-dimensional human beings like bumper stickers. Now the writers of this show are clearly familiar with Flatland. So I'm wondering if they were influenced by this. Rudy Rucker has made all of his short stories, his entire collection of short stories available in text form on his website, and I'll include a link to that site below. It was a good show, and I recommend that you watch the entire series. My only problem with this final episode was, it was a double-linked episode. It was 45 minutes long. My big problem was, the last 15 minutes, a full 15 minutes, were devoted to a feel-good epilogue, where everything was put back to normal and everybody had a happy ending, and I didn't like that. I was perfectly happy and actually very excited to see things the way they were at the end of the conflict, and there was too much epilogue. Anyway, that's the end of the series, but I'm pretty sure there'll be another one, and I'll look forward to it. You can support 30-Second Sci-Fi and my other projects by becoming a patron.

Γεια σας, είναι Vicky, εδώ και καλώς ήρθατε! Στην Βίκαια έχω ένα καλό επίπεδο, θα πω ένα βίντεο από πέντε, μέχρι φράγμα και θα φτιάξω πένι-πλάκ σταμπς. Λοιπόν, για σήμερα θα πάρω για ένα πολύ κύριο παιδί και θα χρησιμοποιήσω αυτήν την αδορρυμότητα. Αυτή είναι η σταμπς από πένι-πλάκ, η οποία είναι called Fairy Flatters και θα βρεις λίξες από πίσω της δισκρυπσιακής για όλα αυτά που θα χρησιμοποιήσω σήμερα. Σταμπίζω μία νασθάω μία πλαμπς από πέντε ε musipluu και θα χρησιμοποιώ μία μυαλή πιστάρος για να χρησιμοποιήσω μου αντιμετώσεις να χρησιμοποιώ μια εγώρες. Στην εγώ θα χρησιμοποιώ μια βιντεορυμότητα για να ασφαλώσω μία νασθαλαρώ τον φθ partager παραδειά για να με slown and να μεagueυουμε τον νετιέτο και θα βρεις τη σταμπί σε τωρή για ατωρή, Θα πουνταμβουλήθηκα τίποτα που χρειαζε στην ώρα, και αυτό είναι λόγητα για να τα χρησιμοποιωθύω στους ευδοταστά. Τωρα που ό ruralαν τα στους ευδοκλαίες μου θα κάνω να χρησιμοποιώ και χρησιμοποιώ τα νεκρητικά μου σκοπιά εύκολα για να τα χρησιμοποιώ everything. Στην αυτό το κόσμο είμαι χρησιμοποιώ τα νεκρητικά μου σκοπιά και μπορείς να δείσεις τα εργάκοσες που vale για την φαγησία Και θα δούμε τώρα ότι η φαίναση που βρίσκω στο στιγμή δεν θα δημιουργήσει τίποτα, επειδή εγώ πιστεύω να κρατήσω τη δεύτερη φαίναση και να το βάζω στο κόμμα. Τώρα, όχι αν θέλεις να κρατήσεις ένα φαίναση στο κόμμα από το άλλο με ένα λίγο φόντιπο στο κόμμα, θα μπορείς να δείξεις underneath όταν βρίσκεις την καρδιά. Δεν θέλω να δείξεις έναν κόμματικό κόμμα underneath, δημιουργήσω να το βρίσκω όλοι as normal. Ελπίζω να το βρίσκω. Τώρα θα χρησιμοποιήσω τα φαίναση μου για να κρατήσω τη δεύτερη φαίναση και τότε θα δώσω μία φαίναση λίγο φόρτι στο κόμμα. Όταν έχω κρατήσει όλα τα φαίναση θα χρησιμοποιήσω τα φαίναση μου για να κρατήσω τα φαίναση μου. Τώρα, δείξεις πώς θα χρησιμοποιήσω τα φαίναση μου. Θα χρησιμοποιήσω το κόμματικό κόμμα, όπως είναι. Είμαι very carefully going all around the edges with my scissors following the black lines. Notice how I move the paper and not the scissors, which is making this easier than it looks. From the second image I am only going to cut out the head. I'm not paying any attention on any hairs that are coming out.  Carefully going all around the black lines.  I'm not going to separate the wings because this is going to help me later on to stick everything down. So I'm just going to create a bridge from one wing to the other. And now that I have all the parts ready to go, I'm going to do the assembling. So first I'm going to add some foam squares on top of the face. And I'm going to stick the wings. And take good care on how you stick the wings. They are not symmetrical. I had to flip them over because I made a mistake at the first time. And now I'm going to add some double-sided tape on top of that acetate. So that I can stick the head on top. And this way I am creating my very own focal point, which is really dimensional. And it's going to be super pretty and adorable. And I just love how those acetate wings add that extra something on here. And they shine when they catch the light. And since I'm going for a birthday card, I will be using this die by Penny Black that says Happy Birthday. And I really love the font. Now I want to add some glitter on my sentiment and that's why I'm going to create my very own glitter paper.  I'm also going to use my bone folder to go over that tape just to make sure that everything is nicely stuck.  And now I'm going to bring in my big shot machine so that I can run it through. Now, just because this is a very thick cardstock that I'm using and I have already added that double-sided tape on top, it's quite thick. So I'm going to run it a couple of times just to make sure that everything is cut out all the way through. Now I'm going to peel off the backing and all the adhesive is now exposed so I can apply my glitter. The glitter that I'm using is Fine Glitter by Nouveau. It sticks nicely on top of my adhesive and it's not going to move. Of course, I am going to burnish it with my bone folder just to make sure that everything is nicely stuck there.  So that piece has a beautiful stitching all around. Now I want to apply some ink and create my sky on this panel but just because I want to have a very thin border all around I am making sure that I apply some masking tape just outside the stitching lines. So now I'm going to color my sky and just because I want it to be very pale blue I decided to work with Tumbled Glass and that's a distressed ink that I am applying with my blending tool. Notice how I'm not trying to get a very even coverage on my background. I just want to have some ink here and there which is going to help on the sky look and at the same time I get some areas that are lighter that will look like clouds from far away. So now I'm going to decide where everything is going to go. First I'm going to stick my Happy Birthday die cut and I'm using a matte medium that I have in this fine tip applicator and now I can place that at the very bottom of my panel. I'm going to press it down and just place a stamping block on top to keep it in place until it's nicely stuck.  Now I'm making this card and I'm going to give it to a very special little girl. I am her godmother and she has her birthday on Thursday and along with her birthday present she always gets one birthday card from me as well. And as I am sticking my clouds on my little scene just to let you know that Penny Black is having a giveaway so make sure to visit my blog and find out all about it. If you are watching on YouTube you will find a link to that post down below in the description area.  I'm not going to cut off the wings or anything that comes out of the little girl. I'm just going to cut off the clouds. Now this is a small panel. It is way smaller than a standard card so it doesn't matter if anything from that baby girl sticks out. I'm going to apply some foam tape at the back of my panel and then I'm going to stick it directly on top of my card base but the way my card base is a standard card that's 4 ¼ x 5½ and I have created it out of pale pink cardstock. Now the card is ready. I'm just going to add some finishing touches So this is a set of glitter gel pens. I am adding some shine on her eyes and I know that you can't really see what I am doing and what that shine adds but it really makes a difference in real life. I'm also adding some dots of pink glitter on her tutu and this is going to finish off my card. And that was the card for today. I hope you had fun and got inspired and if you did don't forget to leave me a comment as well as give me thumbs up on my youtube channel. Here are some close up photos of the card that I made today. Don't forget to visit me tomorrow for another card featuring Penny Black. And if you need more inspiration here are two more videos that I have created a while back. Thank you all for watching.
