Hello guys, hello everyone. What an amazing day we have. It's my turn to do the final presentation Basically, let me just sum this Okay Yep Again, what a wonderful opportunity we had today a lot of amazing presentations. I'll try to keep it up And for that I brought today's topic which is migrating 5d core to the edge Wisely and confidently with Kubernetes Many of you have heard of 5g already Kind of sick of what if 5g maybe it's just some A trend we are going through these years or the field pastime But believe me and it's the fact that 5g and Kubernetes of they have a long story And I will try to show into this presentation The contents for today. I want to try to be quite a Simple of many of the 5d topics One introduction then I'm going to mention the problem the problem for this presentation. What is 5g edge? What is mech if you have heard of it? What is the strategies that Kubernetes? Can that can be applied in Kubernetes to achieve this 5d core at the edge In both at CD performance put scheduling and At the final I'm going to do a demo analysis. It's not going to be a full demo I think you guys all all of us wanted to just wrap it up. So let's try to do some summary A little bit about me my name is Marco on cell is I'm from Lima, Peru. I'm based in Japan since two years three years ago Working as a 5g solution architect at the next in Japan Oh, basically Doing all about 5g rollouts in Japan for different telecom operators big coffee fan and Apart from my current role. I also am part of the AWS community builder association. Basically, we try to Talk about what is a double a solutions in my case I try to make blocks about networking content delivery services and how to integrate cloud services in general One half time, of course, I tried to do some hiking I tried to take advantage of the amazing landscape of having Japan So for the problem statement, I want to just make a simple questions Is any of you guys are working with 5g or 4g currently Kubernetes or have ever worked with 5g or 4g? Oh Right to So I'm going to do something really simple I'm not going to dig in deep into 5g for for us for the presentation is going to be just some Obligation that is going to be run at the edge so basically edge I can define as a Scenario where we have a data producer trying to send a bunch of data and in order to get a response we are Trying to put the server close to that to the data producer. That's the main concept of edge solutions of course, we have Different scenarios computing of loading Data caching and that are processing and so on so forth But when we try to do this there are common of important question we we have Is this solutions is actually going to be profitable because at the end of the day 5g is one of the Solutions for enterprises Therefore the question is massive IoT. Is it really going to help me these 5g edge? It is definitely going to handle critical workloads. Is it going to have some redundancy? so that those two questions are appears many forums when when we talk about 5g and the edge and the most important Is it saving cost? Is it being profitable? I would save me money with this I would make it. I will be spending more money and Faster TTM or time to market 5g core and 5d solutions is meant to be meant to have a fast delivery to the customer because these days obviously customer wants everything Yes of the speed of light. So that's what I expected from 5g I'm going to quickly talk about Timeline so this is gone. This was crazy 5g and 5d edge has started in 2019 and in just less than three years guys. We have been we have a bunch of rollouts commercial networks and amazing R&Ds projects all over the world Germany USA China Until the last year is more than 660 million 5d subscribers and definitely when you see that number you can think about it This there is some use case that we can we can have with the 5g particularly in Japan. I have a cool Research that there are indeed some R&D R&D projects especially with well-known telecom operators and the main business case So we have is machine-to-machine, which means a device is sending traffic to another device is having a machine-to-machine communication peer-to-peer As I said before 5g edge it's It's impulse is promoted by the fact that there is a huge investment worldwide more than seven billion dollars of just Forecast for 2027 and of course we are talking about edge intelligence overall so let's Deep in this big into what's 5g edge and make or multi-axis edge computing is For a sake of the presentation don't care about these blue boxes. There are a lot of information this talk about infrastructure, let's talk about what makes 5g at the edge works and If you want to focus on that, let's only talk about the red boxes red color boxes This is a one a standard Architecture basically it's defining how different operators trying to apply these use cases application computing of loading multi-user multi-network application B2x which is vehicle to everything and Auto-mobile auto-mobile workloads and so on so forth many use cases. So let's dig into those two red boxes Okay, Kubernetes and 5g edge Kubernetes 101 you guys know what it is, right? It's it's one of the key topics of more basic topics We have a truly consistent distributed keep all your store and use the rough consensus protocol I was surprised that my colleague from I call it the speaker from Hitachi talk about this Consistency protocol and what are the challenges? Indeed. There are some challenges. We are trying to solve with 5g core There are different use cases in the presentation that talk about financial bank solution, right? It's true consistency the data must be getting both ends That applies for a bank solution if we move on to the 5g edge IoT which mean devices there is no such Priority or have this strong consistency, but yet having this a strong consistency makes a Huge sacrifice for the HCD Let's go to the this small diagram Every time there is a pot scaling out every time I'm trying to the cluster is trying to collect a new pot There's a lot of bands of Communication between the AP server because the controller and in between each of these steps We have the famous data store at CD What happened? Every time we do one call every time we do one operation get or to update There has to be these famous strongly consistency synchronization if we have three that the store as you can see in a presentation there's going to be Synchronization between these three nodes before Replying to AP API server and this go all the way until we schedule a pot with the least about if we have Container registry we pull that the image and every time we have this Strong consistency Operation you may think but Marco this is just common Kubernetes. Why does affect us? I mean, it's just a few milliseconds few seconds overall. That's true But let's think of this way Apart from 5g at the edge. We're also trying to use bare metal We were trying to not relying on one vendor which we're trying to open the different options with a double S I should we would cloud today I saw a bunch of presentation just talking about those public providers and You guys know that they charge for everything traffic, right every in our traffic they charge So every time you do this synchronization you are pretty much increasing your monthly fee So that's the one thing that is not mandatory for this use case IOT What are the strategy in this case? Well, this is kind of the opposite of what my The previous speaker mentioned. It's move from a strong consistency to a lazy thinking for that We use the conflict free to look at data types, which it's not as As that name says it doesn't need to perform immediate communication with our notes instead, it definitely Answers the query or replies the API server and performs this all these two Replication state-based or operation-based of course the first one is refined like a image copy between the notes and the second one is just Cloning the commands to the different data stores obviously the second one is more bound with efficient So it's one of the strategies we can use in order to reduce this Delay and improve the overall cluster performance Of course, I'm focusing this solution on the massive IOT scenario Is it one of the keys now that we have so far worldwide in 5G gore edge Second strategy again basic concept how to do a post strategy guys how we Excale we do the basic HPA via BPA and a cluster of scaling those three options We have been working. We're seeing all our different labs different Sessions, so it's very common But if you try to take this just as it is to the 5G core you have one challenge 5G users are not that predictable for instance You guys know like 5G It's meant to be to use a many use cases Video gaming streaming Tiktokers biggest tool. So one user can do many things So it's not like a one user one traffic. It's not one user one request. It's a one user many requests So if you think that this is going to solve your problem, you may end up having an outage So that's what that's why the telecom operators don't want and for that one of the strategy it's Develop and improve the proactive force of the scalar. This is obviously with a research If you can see the diagram on my left There is a kind of like a more aligned to what is the Machine learning Intrusion to the 5G for instance We have a one control loop in this case for the sake of the presentations every 20 seconds is going to Evaluate it's going to receive metrics, but not only CPU memory storage Not only the common ones more data that is aligned to the clients. It's aligned to the use case That's a big difference between 5G and let's say any database server. It's not that straightforward So based on that you can predict the behavior and the take apart action. It's not just I'm going to increase when I found the issue that In a telecom service is just service impact and is customer complaining its impact to the to the brand So that's something at least so far is one of the key discussions for the 5g edge One of the benefit of course, it's a proactive workflow for out the scaling Multimetrics that can be used Text into consideration of course limitation and constraints of the resources. This is important because As I mentioned before 5g edge is not going to use one simple Brand or one simple flavor. It's going to use multi edge for cloud providers It's going to use as I think today was presented bare metal so different options So for this randomness for these variety of options We can use this proactive both out skill and we can use the benefit of it Okay, I tried to make one simple ecosystem or what 5g edge is so far If I miss one of them, please forgive me I tried to come up with the open source project that I'd aligned to the 5g edge As you can see the center is Focused on the CNI CRI and CSI which I've studied today Also, I forgot to add the the the mesh Which is also key for 5g edge, of course these four projects open source I'm going to discuss about them. Yes as a summary because of the time and Above that as we can see there's Argo amazing ICICD Some of them the numbering well now it's been I care that I'm using New few is an open source project is having a lot of attention these days in previous a cube com They have a lot of use cases which is somewhat quite interesting and on up with just a standard to set How it is going to be deployed on top of that of course we have application as I said for us We are developers interators 5g is just not on just an application Of course, it's complex But at the end of the day is just one application and for we have these two option with our open source We are mainly used for any for many international conference. So I try to put them in this presentation the table on the left it's Summary and the comparison between these four projects for cube edge as you can see Slightly advantage is assigned to the k2s And while the cube edge it's having some sort of like a complexity Some not available documentation personally and this is just taken from one research this year personally I didn't find any issue with the kube edge. In fact, I think kube edge and k2s are so far one of the strongest one to make at least R&D or testing test labs But pretty much this is a summary of what we can see for the current top Kubernetes open source projects Okay, so For the demo section I Tried to be as simple as possible. I trying to not show or not focus on the Productive both scaling first because it will demand to have one machine learning and one algorithm to do that Prediction instead. I just simple use one cluster We want master now tree worker notes Public IP and the reason why is that because I'm using or I used a double S Services and specifically one easy two notes, which is just brittle machines The IoT devices in this case are IP cameras, which is a basic solution for just streaming or data streaming Of course, we have permit use for an L a key for monitoring and data and observation The notes a specification in this demo. I try to use a 32 cores 100 GB RAM 500 GB storage and the 233 IOPS When I start with my colleague about this scenario this also that always a question. Why do you pick those values? Well, there are many reasons of course One of the key ones is that as a community builder I have free I Have some points to use so I didn't I didn't have to pay for this So I just want to try how how robust are the the AWS In fact, this let's say flavor is used for the actual 5d core that it was offered to the public So I just want to try The repo has all the the load test the load tester code As I mentioned before in this presentation for the sake of the time I'm not going to do any video demo guys just going to go straight to the summary Please go through these deeper. You have repo One and I must mention this I Basically found one amazing low test repo and fork it and modify it So smart real smart guys make this low test So it's not for me to revamp the wheel. It's just to use and that's right to apply for my use case these Six test cases KPIs is what I consider relevant if we focus on the It at CD or the database consumption if you can see we have a cluster API how is that how far it is and How fast is the create deployment initially if you can see for all these values Which are in milliseconds the one who is still kind of like give us some? Let's say Some discussion is how much time it takes for the pots to be running Of course, we can deploy easily deploy a cluster. That's quite easy but if you have to scale and considering the curing limitation we have for the at CD of course that four projects Have some struggles still have some struggles These four projects are used different CNI CSI and of course we have a lot of customization for a second of these For this demo, I guess I use default a CNI default configuration As you can see QBH has the highest response Which doesn't imply that it's not the the best option One of the the ones that was kind of steady along the the test which by the way, which is it was just a scale out from 10 replica to 100 replicas So is it just one scale out and just I was trying to Monitoring how fast are for the pots to be running because this imply I have 10,000 IP cameras. I have many cameras. So they are increasing the traffic loads rapidly So what I'm expect I'm expect my cluster to get roughly used to this increase and adjust and Also increase the capacity That's pretty much the demo that perform and Have time Okay, take a waste as I said Five you call the edge have many advantages and many challenges one of them and I present today are two the HCD dependency the HCD let's say Let's see the limitation when we're trying to be too strong consistency in that the store There are many options that are many use cases that doesn't require it to be strongly consistency Also, the post strategy is to one of the key topics are still a lot of research a lot of tests a lot of failure and tests doing recently to for the fourth strategy is Trying we're trying to Get out of the basic Of scaling and yes, I use a more predictive one Which was a customer usually requires at the very end I talk about the current edge Q and the projects designed and There's show some speed when we are Starting up when we are deploying the cluster, but still there are some observation or there are still not Where's it seems some latencies when we're trying to actual get the pot's running Which is it when the application is is already are ready for for taking traffic? that's pretty much my my demo for today and with that, thank you so much for your time and Thank you. Oh if you anyone have any questions or any comments, please It's almost five thirty. Yeah, people are tired If not, um, you can connect with me with this in my blog that I have I try to upload a double S and Of course, I do and to bonus content, please you can contact me and get in touch with Twitter or linger in It's fine Yeah, thank you

Germany confirms when Mada fighting vehicles and Jeopard ammunition will be delivered to Ukraine. Germany's largest arms manufacturer, Rheinmetall, expects the first batch of ammunition for anti-aircraft Jeopard systems will be delivered to Ukraine by July. About it informed CNN with reference to Rheinmetall CEO, Armin Paperger. Paperger also announced that 20 Mada fighting vehicles will be ready to be delivered to Ukraine by the end of March. He said his company had doubled capacities in some sectors, even tripled them. In weapons production, the warehouse is full. We are running at full steam here and can still increase capacity with one shift. If contracts were made, he said. Germany didn't specify how many Mada vehicles would be supplied, but Dr Spiegel reported it could be as many as 40. Germany would also send a Patriot missile system following Washington's donation to help repel Russian missile and drone attacks. The West's hesitation in sending advanced armaments has revolved around fears of provoking Russia.


What is up my Cranky Crew? It's Ethan from Cranky Plays and today we are here playing ChexQuest HD, baby! Big, big thank you to Chex for sponsoring this video. I'm gonna be playing ChexQuest with my good buddy Brian, Irger Beagley, but before we get into the video, just a couple of things I wanna let you know. So not only are we playing ChexQuest HD on Steam today, but also, ChexQuest has a new comic book that is out right now. As a part of free comic book summer, Chex is releasing these comic books nationwide in comic stores all across America, as well as 500 limited edition, 500 black and white variants of this comic. The anthology features a story for each of the six heroes as well in the ChexMix Squadron, as well as an exclusive first look at the Flemowitz dimension, so no big deal. So if you wanna check out the comic, you can not only obviously purchase a physical comic, but you can also see a digital version of the comic for free. Go down in the description below. All of the links will be there as well as a bunch of high res images, which are also available for download. So you can go to comicsology.com and chexquest.com. Again, everything down in the description below. Huge, huge thank you to ChexQuest for sponsoring this video. I really, really appreciate it. But without further ado, let's get into the game, maybe. Brian, so we have a time limit of five minutes, or we have Zorches, 10, 15, 20, or 25 Zorches. Listen, I'm an eSports gamer, so it doesn't matter. Let's do 25 Zorches or five minutes, okay? Oh my gosh. Whichever comes first. Do you think we're gonna Zorch each other that many times in this amount of time? I can screen look. No screen peeking, Brian. No screen peeking. I've also got a big boy. A big boy? Weapon, so. He doesn't know. Chad, he doesn't know. No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no. You get away from me. You get away from me right now. I have no idea if we're actually, oh, you are hitting me. I'm gonna Zorch ya. I've been Zorched! Got you not Zorched! Dude! Hold on, let me get a, I know where a big Zorch gun is. So let me just. Oh! You're the one who got Zorched though. Dude, I need to have, I need to have streamer luck, all right?  Thank you. I'll just pretend not to see you next time I see you. Yeah, exactly, exactly. Oh man, where could he be? Oh, you've been Zorched, dude! That's so embarrassing. Where are you? I don't know, where could I be? Where could I be? Oh, I see him! You can't escape from me. I'm walking.  No, no, no, dude. I am the number one player. Wait, hold on! I am the number one player right now. I have to run. In eSports. And now that you've gotten two kills, you're number one. In eSports checks quest. If I die, it's because I let you get me. It's true. Oh, see? Look who's been Zorched! Oh! I'll play her too with Zorched. Oh, man! You want to do a rematch? I'll rematch you, sure. Where are you? Where are you? Where are you? Where are you? Where are you? Here he is! Oh, my gosh. Let me in! Let me in! Dude, yes. Peek out, Brian. Peek out? No, I'm scared. I'm scared, I'm scared. You're scared? I see you. There's nothing to be afraid of. Except for death itself, Brian. Death itself! Zorched, baby! Where are you? I'm where you'll never find me right next to you. Oh! I almost sweeped, dude. I almost sweeped. I believe the word is swept. You're right. You're right. Grammar of whom? Excuse me, grammar of whom? It gets Zorched, dude. That was the quickest Zorched I've ever seen in competition. Come here, Brian. Come here. Come here. It's against everything I stand for. It is going anywhere near you. Yes! Infinite power! Hold on, let's do a Sporks-only match. How do I equip the Sporks? Oh, there it is. I saw you. Come here. Weep me. Oh my god. This is dangerous. Zorched! How does it feel? That'd be a slow death. Death by Spork. Pull out your spoon. Just a spoon, not a Spork. Oh my god. Eek! You have so much armor! You have like 200% armor. So? All right. All right. Cool. It's you. Me? No. Oh. Oh, it is you. Come here. Oh, it is you. Oh, it is you, isn't it? In it, Mark. In it. Oh, I've been zorched. I wish there was a crouch button so I could key bag you there. I mean, fantastic. That's the true Esports experience. It truly is. As you crouch up and down on the zorched corpse of your enemy. Where? Oh, look who came out on top. Layer two. It's a sad day, Brian. It's a great day. It is a sad day. All right, you want to go one last round? I'll go one last round. This is for all the checks mixed in the bag. I feel like my range of visibility is lessened. Oh, mine is also. Maybe it gave me some sort of, yeah, it made it harder for me. That's what it is. I figured it out. Made it harder for me because it knows I'm going to win. Yeah, I don't think that that's true, actually, because I think that you're actually very bad and not even ranked top 500. Wow, wow, wow. I'll have you know that I'm a diamond rank checks quest player. Yeah, well, I'm plat, so I mean. It picks the rank that's below a diamond in every game. No, but in checks, it's higher. In this game specifically, you're right. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, you're right. Yeah, that was foolish for me. Well, and that's why you just got zorged, you know? Where did you go? Don't worry about it. Oh! Get back here! All right, I figured out that you only travel in one direction. Therefore, you are so easy to find and destroy. Oh, what direction am I going in, Brian? You go counter-cl- oh, that's C. C. Figured it out. Figured it out. Listen, man. My accuracy. No! In Clio, I thought we'd play some multiplayer and show you what that's like. But now we're going to go into the single-player mode. And single-player doesn't involve other people. Name Brian. It doesn't involve me. Hello! And ChexQuest is back, baby! Do you remember ChexQuest? Let me know down in the comments. But it is back and for the summer with some sweet, sweet, free multiplayer on Steam. Description, it's in there. The link, I mean. Back by popular demand. ChexQuest is here. We've got single-player. We've got multiplayer, baby! Back in 96. The year that I was born, ChexQuest came out. And now they have remastered it. It's back in glorious HD. High definition. You can see all of their pores. Also new characters, too. But we are going to hop in on the single-player. Let's be pretzel. He's a big pretzel. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah. Oh, yeah, oh, yeah. Collect that. Thank you very much. Look at this. It's beautiful. It's delicious. It's in space. Also, you probably saw that I could choose different characters. Oh, boy. Oh, boy. Oh, boy. It's just how I do it. So on every bag of Chex, there's a code on the back where you can unlock a different character. So I have all of the characters unlocked. But if you got this game as well, which it's free. The download link is in the description below. You can unlock all of the characters by grabbing yourself a bag of Chex. And oh, hello, sir.   Not only go to a tasty treat, that can't be beat, but also I'm not going to collect it. Okay, closed. We need to open the other ports. What about this one? Who's in here? Oh, hey, yeah, baby. Oh, don't worry. I've got you. I've got you. I picked up a slime repellent. Okay. Oh, oh no, oh no, oh no, oh no. Okay, it's open. I thought that that was going to trigger something awful and spooky and scary and something that will destroy me. Let's go down into the lower depths. Oh, hello, hello. Geez, how many? Okay, my armor is at 4%, which is not super good, not super good. If we could get more Ironmer, that'd be great. Oh, hey boys. How you doing? Let me just zap you up real quick there. Okay, okay, okay. All right, let's keep exploring. Oh no, oh no. How do I reload? Oh no, oh no, this is bad. Oh, can I get them with a spoon at all? Oh no. Oh no, oh no, oh no. Ooh, I do have this. I do have this. Good, good, good. You're about to get zorched. Ooh, ooh, greetings gossip feed, your old pal. Shit here, unlike those other news sources with the fact checking departments. I'm back from my basement to send you the hottest rumors and speculations on Bezoic. Make mine, honey, ghosted. It seems that somebody has a sweet tooth and sticky fingers. Other than making fun of the other IFS, I want better than this. It seems like Office of Crumb might have a pretty sweet cake when you just signed the case. All right, all right. All right, this is not good though. Oh, why did I do that? That was bad. Oh, hello. Oh no, there's a couple of them. Got them, thank you. Okay, I have nine. I have nine shots left.  Six shots. Whoa, we gotta make them count. Hello, I've got four left. Up, up, up, please, okay, okay, okay. Hey, hey, I do not have. Oh no, I do not have. I have bowl of fruit. My, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my, my. You are no match for me. Oh, is this?  Oh, wonderful, oh, wonderful. Oh, you're big too, come on. Come at me, boys. Let's get these phlegmoids back to their dimension. Okay, we need more ammo, we need more ammo. There better be ammo back here or else that these not very good. Oh, do not come close to me, please. Maybe we're really quiet, they won't notice us.  Hey, open, open. Mm. Ah, okay, just pick up this. Climate Pellet, Blue Area Access Only. I'm blue, right? I have a blue, I am blue. Oh, here we go. Here we go, here we go. There's still no ammo. Oh, there we go, there we go. Got a little tiny bit, got a little tiny bit. Okay, open it. What if you open? Open her up, baby. It's all open, go, go, good. I have 16 ammos. All right, let's get to the ship. Just as quick as we can. I picked up a blue key, okay. Oh yes, that is wonderful ammo. Oh, just try it, just try. Try and get me. I am unstoppable now that I have so much ammo. Okay, we've defeated our enemies. Let's get onto the ship. Open her up, go up to the tip, tip, top. We've only got 20 ammo left, so. We've got, be careful.  All right, got some health. We've got two ammo left, gamers. Uh-oh, oh, please do not die. Oh, oh, I will not, I will not be your captor today. You guys seeing these sick moves that I'm pulling right here? Wait, I don't wanna go up there yet. I want to collect everything that I can. I picked up a red key, cool. Need that, love that. Ooh, a teleporter, I love a teleporter. Okay, which place did I need to go in with the red key? I think that was back here. Yes, oh no, new enemy, new enemy, new enemy, new enemy. Oh, you take so much ammo to beat. Oh my God, exit facility, exit facility.  Oh, we got some parkour action going on. There we go. Oh my gosh, the range, the range on this weapon. Unbelievable. Oh, do I have a bigger weapon, dude? Oh my gosh, I think I do. All right, I've got the blue key now. Give me some real tough enemies.  Yes, yes, excellent. Bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, bye-bye, everyone. Oh yes, goodbye, goodbye. Okay, I'm gonna come down here now. Get some slime repellent, okay, okay. Do I have a red key? I know, I love the noises that they make so much. So cute. Oh, I'm getting all of them. Oh, you're not even having a chance to even look at me. You had no chance, and now I have the red key. And infinite ammo, and by infinite ammo, I mean I ran out of ammo and I'm dying. I'm dying and I've run out of ammo. Oh no, and I died, okay. All right, well, this was ChexQuest. Again, if you want to check it out for yourself, it's available on PC and macOS as well.

Summer has arrived and Appalachian Wireless has a great sell on the world's hottest smartphone from now to the end of the month. You can get the amazing iPhone 13 for more than half off because we are you. We are Appalachian Wireless. An outdoor art class was held for children of all ages at the Johnson County Farmers Market on July 19th. So Farmers Market has become one of my new locations and this is more of a creative, free outdoor play for this location and so as you can probably tell from going around kids can just they just have the freedom to kind of do whatever they want.  The outdoor art class offered a variety of different arts and crafts for kids to participate in such as flower pot painting and rock painting as well as sensory stations filled with water, dirt, sand and other textures for children to play in. We have our water station that they've been working on so it didn't have ice but of course the ice melted but that is more of a sensory play. We have sand, dirt, things like that but I want the kids to be familiar with touching and getting used to it's okay to get your hands dirty and so when they get bored with that over here on the table we have bubble painting which literally just blow bubbles and it colors a portrait, they have paint pour which is basically get gather all this paint and you dump it on a canvas and it makes this cool organic design. We have rock painting just a little bit of everything. Another outdoor art class will be held at the Johnson County Farmers Market on Tuesday July 26th and Thursday July 28th. The price to participate is $10 per child. For Mountain Top News I'm Kelsey Dean.


And software as a service by design because processing happens on the server side in the cloud is to, and this model in many cases is based on notizing personal data through target advertising means data is not in our hands anymore. It is copied onto servers. So by the way, and I will reuse, you know, catchphrase as you've probably been here with, there is no cloud. The cloud is someone else's computer. That's a very nice way to introduce the cloud to, you know, ordinary people with things. The cloud is something magical. No, the cloud is just someone else's computer. And in the cloud, data is centralized. There is no freedom for users to have any, you know, impact on the data because, well, maybe there is some free and open source software on the servers like the kernel and a few things, but really the application itself is not free software. And so the user has no control over the application and therefore has no control of what is being done, his or her data. So you're probably all familiar with the fate of Edward Snowden, the whistleower, which basically, you know, has released a lot of information. He's had a lot of information from his employer at the NSA to journalists. And what really boils down to is data centralization makes mass surveillance economically possible. Basically, the NSA and several other government agencies want to listen to everyone. They want to record every conversation, whether it happened on the phone or on a computer. And they do that because it's their mission. And because it's too expensive to do surveillance of 7 billion people on Earth right now, it's a lot cheaper to go and fetch the data from the very companies that concentrate our data into a few silos. And this is an issue as explained here. This is Glenn Bilwald, which is one of the two journalists that met with Edward Snowden first. It's basically, if you are under surveillance, you do self-censorship. Mass surveillance, and I'm quoting him here, mass surveillance creates a prison in the mind. If you are under surveillance, you change your behavior. And this is not just something we think. It's scientifically proven. We do self-censor. And here's the proof. So Wikipedia has a lot of pages, and it's totally okay to be visiting Wikipedia pages. You know, it's legal to visit Wikipedia pages. I mean, right? We agree on that. But there are some pages we discuss, which discuss topics that are today. A little touchy. Islam, or Jihad, or terrorism are such topics and pages that people may, you know, they hear a lot about this in the media, and it's really good that as citizens they want to know more and go to Wikipedia to learn more about these topics. But at the same time, if you look at the Jihad page, maybe you could think, um, I could get into trouble because we'll think, you know, someone they could think I am doing it for the wrong reasons. And so what you see here is basically the mean audience of these such pages with touchy subjects on the US version of Wikipedia. And so as you see, the trend is increasing really fast. And then here that black mark is the first known revelations where we learn that surveillance, mass surveillance was happening, and people knew they were under surveillance. Probably, not for sure, but they were programs of mass surveillance. And as you can see, the trend here suddenly there is a sudden drop in visiting these pages. Which once again, it is legal to view and read these pages. It is a good thing. But as we know, as we are under surveillance, we change our behavior. In many cases, we don't know we change our behavior. But we do not dare visiting Wikipedia anymore because we could catch a bullet for being around. So this is a real and scientific example of how we change our behavior when we know we are under surveillance. And this is why it's such a big issue with mass surveillance. You have heard, I'm sure, Larry Lessig, which said, basically, caught his law. If in the digital age, the people who write the software are the people who decide what other people can do. Because, you know, software is everywhere in our lives. And so, well, we as software developers decide what other people do. And this is exactly why if we have free software, we can have a free society. And there's another thing which is really nice, that if code is law, and I think it is, then architecture is politics. The way we architecture software and stuff is actually we decide how things are going to work. So it's up to us hackers, I mean that of course in a good way, to build the internet we want. The internet that we want and the internet that it ended down to us. So here's a larger view of the picture. We have to build a new one. We need to buy the new, or GNU, whatever, decentralized internet, instead of centralized internet owned by a handful of corporations. We need all kinds of free and open source decentralized efforts to build that internet. Start with a personal solution which is working on, cozy, but there are other solutions. Why you know host, sandstorm, cloud and next cloud are examples of such open source and free software solution to give back control of the internet to the users. But there are all sorts of projects here today that are going to be presented in this room. There are so many and so diverse, I could not come up with proper categories to explain. There are people who do service hosting like Shaton and Formasoft. There are, you know, of course software, there are do-it-yourself ISPs, Wi-Fi infrastructure based on free software and all that kind of thing. So there are many things and this is what is going to cool today as we are going to discard all of these new approaches to build a decentralized internet with the hope of making this a movement, just a bunch, not just a bunch of projects, but really people working together. And that was the goal of these days today is to get people together and connect them so that we build together a decentralized internet. Thank you. I see that we already have a question here. Ludo, two questions. So the first question I have is what about cables? It's nice to control the internet made of cables connecting data centers to others. So in the data centers we can have all the solutions we want. But like big cables are owned by huge corporations. Do you know of any efforts of having cables owned by the people, not owned by Orange, by KPN, by PT, by ATT? Do they like efforts to like put a cable between the US? Well, let's be like more European centric, a cable between say Europe, mainland and the UK. That wouldn't be controlled by big corporations. I need to repeat the questions. Keep your questions short because you're not heard on video. And so what about the cables that make the internet, the fickle internet? They do matter. They need to exist. And I think the issue is more like on the last mile or a few last miles. And this is why they do it yourself. ISPs are really interesting. The actual cables, the big cables, optical cables under the sea and stuff like that, we are totally not there yet. But if we do have encryption enabled, I think this solves a lot of the issues connected with that. It's not solving all of them. But if it's encrypted they are not going to be doing internet neutrality stuff against internet neutrality and stuff like that. So I think we're pretty safe there. It doesn't mean we don't have to try. But I think there are more urgent matters that are mostly related in my opinion to devices and servers and such. The good news is that we have Raspberry Pi's for basically 50 euros. You can build a decent server now. The question is, is it going to be safe and secure and easy to administer? That's the question we need to solve. But at least the hardware here is here and extremely promising. I'll take your left. Keep it short because I have to repeat it. Maybe encryption isn't the server block because we've seen recently in China for example that it blocks VDNs. So maybe this is a real issue. Yes, and so what's your question? Is encryption a solution? Is it efficient or cheap? Do you put cables under the sea? No, I agree. It's dangerous everywhere. I mean the internet for the people is under attack pretty much on every front. So banning encryption is a major issue and I think it's a political one and we need to fight in favor of encryption pretty much everywhere we are. It's going to be hard for me to fight for the Chinese but I can fight in Europe and I do fight in France. It's my country and everywhere I can. So yes, encryption right to encryption is something we need to fight for absolutely. Is there another question? Find out what the people that match it is there for a long time but sort of a new topic for the public. So where did the idea of building a decentralized internet come from? That's if I understand your question. Well I wasn't like I said with Mozilla for 17 years. And 20 years ago I was at Fozdem which if I remember correctly was called Osdem at the time, not Fozdem because the free part was only open source not free. And Richard Stollman came and yelled and well of course. And so it changed so it works. So yelling works. And I was with a colleague and we had the first Mozilla dev room. And after 17 years I was like now the issue is not so much on the client side it's also on the server side. This is why I've joined Cozy to create that. And of course I ended up knowing a lot of people in similar things. And Julien Tazidin and mom together came and well we know people that are interested in something which is pretty similar. Tazidin is involved in DIY ASP. Mom is involved in one unit host and together well connect with other projects. And we say let's request a room, a dev room at Fozdem like I did in Mozilla like 17 years ago. And it happened thank you Fozdem. And I hope this is the first one. The next one is going to be a lot bigger and bigger. And if you see you know the first Mozilla dev room was like pretty much this size and now it's really huge. So maybe this is the story you know. You will be able to say to your eventually I was there. And another question. I see two issues for doing the decentralized business. Data center on the economic side is very efficient compared to the decentralized. Maybe we need to put more money on the table for something safer. And the second one that the data is centralized and gives you, give everyone a lot of services. When the data is centralized today like Google Maps. So how to give the user all the data like Google is able to give services with data. Trade the data. So your question is how is there a chance that we win with the decentralized approach as opposed to centralized approach. First I think the internet is inherently decentralized. That's one thing it was built to be centralized. Second there are things that are working for us. The smartphone industry is building power efficient and powerful chips that are very very inexpensive. Think if there is a new chip called a new board called the Orange Pi Zero which is 7 euros. And it's quite core 1.2 gigahertz. You know it really is something. So even the Raspberry Pi which is inexpensive it's just the beginning. And thanks to the smartphone industry that's taking our data we're actually it's empowering us with new hardware which is very efficient. So it doesn't have to be fully decentralized. And as my personal opinion I'm a pragmatic pragmatist and I think that if we start to halfway decentralized and we decentralize not well if we decentralize halfway and have like I don't know regional servers it's a lot better than having a worldwide server. So we could use we could leverage the efficiency of data centers but have more control over that. And this is something we're going to see with the Google lies your life and their approach with from a soft you will see it's very and you read French do you. I encourage you to read a book because that's what I explained on 300 pages basically yes. Sir. Yes. I mean it's it's so I repeat question is it going to work with the email the email question because of spam protection against spam is really hard. But who wants a Gmail account here in this room raise your hand. Okay. Now this is the problem. If you started moving your email from Google to an RISP email that would be a lot of progress. Not not the perfect solution but progress and you know in re decentralizing the email. So yes we can start with that and the world's going to change. You know just buy your own domain and use the email servers of your poster. That's already a start and these people know how to run a mail server that is recognized by Gmail. So. So what about ordinary users for having a decentralized Internet. Yeah. So if if I may and we have like two more minutes. I'll give you a very quick example of what we do at Cozy which basically enables you to connect your data from all your devices and with connectors to all your services on your personal cloud. And this personal cloud you know it's like personal like a smartphone is personal. No username. It's you just enter the password and enter and you have access and you it's just like a smartphone. You know you can buttons. You have calendar contacts and files and photos. You can import your data from Google. You can add connectors and applications. You see your files. You see your contacts and such your calendar. All of that works and it runs not necessarily at home. It can run on a on a server that you pay for. And so there is no incentive for the hosting company you pay to data mine your data because they already make good money by renting you service space. So that's what we want to do. I'm not saying it's perfect but it's a good medium term solution. It's easy to use and you don't have to worry about the security because you have you know professionals that manage to manage your server. That's it. I think we will need to prepare for the next hot. Ludo have a one last quick question. One. Why do you think Snowden's revisions were more impactful than the discovery of children years before where everybody at some point had a terrorist bomb in their email. I think Snowden had an impact because it made the front page of the media. That's pretty much it. I think it was better than that but it's already pretty good. Time is up. We need to prepare for the next talk. Thank you very much.


At the time when I was studying I was very convinced by the literature that showed how growth, which is used as a proxy for social welfare, really fails to capture the substantive goals of what we want and need in our society. So it's why I'm always still a bit surprised that the alternative is also still using this terminology of degrowth, while I think the critique equally applies to that, that it still doesn't put a finger on what we really need and don't need for a good society and a sustainable society in the future. There are multiple, they relate to value of health, of care, of affordable and accessible food, so nutrition, shelter, housing, so mobility, but also access to the internet, political voice, so these are substantive goals I would say for social policies to increase to increase these social rights for everyone in society and I think using degrowth as the solution or the denominator doesn't really tackle the issues that are underneath. And you also see some blind spots. I think in the degrowth literature, in which I'm not an expert, but I think the potential lever of finance is really a bit under explored, tend to go into discussions of whether it is, whether we can afford transition or whether the welfare state redistributional systems are compromised if you go towards degrowth, but really the analysis of how the finance system is currently channeling the financial streams in our society to certain goals and not to others, to certain investments and not to others, to the ones we need is really the consequence of a regulatory framework, the rules by which banks and financial system work and I think there's really a lot of potential to make policy that this financial framework is in line with societal goals that would enable what is currently deemed impossible because of two little resources of the state which is really maybe not the essence of the analysis. So talking about regulatory frameworks, I guess we best then look at the European level to change these things. Both at the European level, yes, of course the monetary instruments are very important and can hardly be overestimated, but also at the national level within states, there could be drawn sustainable finance plans, there could be rules on how, for instance, the public finance is channeled to the projects that we need and not anymore to the projects that we need. And in order to see what we need, we don't need, we also have to make sure we leave no one behind. This is called the just transition principle. I think this is also key for building another economy. Yeah, absolutely. So we see that just transition is a concept that has a very big definition, everyone can adopt it and use it in its own context for its own goals and terms. So I think it is increasingly acknowledged that the social dimension, the social justice dimension, distributional as well as procedural is really important for bringing a sustainable society about and that there is still a lot of discussion necessary to determine which social justice, how to understand it and how can we implement it in policies, but I think this notion of just transition is certainly helpful to bring the debate to those kind of questions.


Today we're talking about the top five modern investments in Yu-Gi-Oh! What's up guys we're back with another discussion video where I'm going to be discussing what I think are the top five modern investments in Yu-Gi-Oh and of course this is not financial advice don't go on and spend all your money on the stuff that I'm talking about and let me know in the comments what you think you agree disagree on what I've decided on the top five. Now these won't be specific one cards it's gonna be like groups of cards for the most part sometimes there's two sometimes there's three or four that I'm talking about versus just five different cards before we do get into it I do have a giveaway I'll be giving away this display of ghosts from the past one to one of you guys all you have to do is like the video be subscribed turn on notifications let me know your opinion on the top five let me know your top five if you would like to or just some other cards that you like so to explain what I mean by modern I decided 2020 through 2022 so the last like three years could be considered modern some probably could go back farther but I just wanted to go to like the last three years and see like what was a decent investment what would be nice to pick up for the last couple years to maybe see if you can make some money and as you guys know I did the buy one thousand dollars and see what happens like the next year video series which is about to end in just like a week or two so keep an eye out for that we're gonna have the final results on if I even made any money so maybe you shouldn't even listen to me on this so when I was looking through all the different potential cards I was like are there any comments that are worth it no all the comments at this point are garbage you know they're worth basically nothing they don't even do rares anymore for like half the year so rares usually aren't very valuable supers are still kind of like rares so we're really looking at even like ultra rares mostly are not good I do actually have an ultra on this list so keep an eye out for that but it's pretty much like high rarity stuff we're looking like collector rares starlight rares ghost or stuff like that for the modern stuff it pretty much has to be a high rarity card to be worth it if you do want to go low and you can do penny stocks and buy some like 10 cent card that you think might go to a dollar but that's not what we're doing here we're doing more high-end stuff so at number five I decided to go with a set that we've talked about a lot this is not one singular card the exodia starlight set now we've already talked about this in my top 10 video where I was talking about battles of legend crystal revenge how much of an awesome idea it was we of course opened eight hours to try and pull the whole thing we still need the left arm I need to get more boxes I still I've been procrastinating a little bit it's an expensive set you know but I think that this is a really awesome set but I think we need to be careful to like maybe since it's kind of new you don't really want to go out and maybe buy them right now I think potentially it could dip a little bit before it goes up and it might never go up because these were actually higher pull ratios if you guys remember like basically one per case if you were at the us cases versus like normal it's like one out of two almost so it's usually a lot harder to pull starlights however there are more starlights so do with that way you will because that's kind of similar to how ghosts from the past two went prices were kind of down for that as well but in terms of actual collectability a set that I think a lot of people will want for a very long time the exodia starlight set really does it because exodia has been there since the very first episode of the anime it is of course iconic to people who don't even know yugioh they know exodia so having the absolute highest rarity in yugioh it is I think it's technically even higher than ghost because usually it's harder to pull but now we're kind of back to the same ratio so it's pretty similar to ghost at this point but one of the highest rarities for one of the most iconic cards even though the set comes out to about $1,150 if you bought it right now so we're not talking about like cheap like you'd have a high investment to get into it the chances that it actually goes up a lot within like the next six months or a year I was going through all the starlights like ever made and as of right now the top six most valuable are all from like 2020 or 2019 so if you're looking at a high-end starlight they're almost all at least two sometimes three years old so if you're buying a starlight now it's probably not going to become like crazy expensive yet it's definitely going to take a couple of years and also like the oppo and the ip are in the first two sets so especially the oppo loza like one of the very first starlights ever so that kind of bumps it up in a different way like when the exodia will never be the first starlight ever or anything but if you do look at these none of these are actual like old school collectible cards which could bode poorly for the the exodia because this is all like valer playable area i mean whatever you call that i it's not really playable either i guess waifu i don't know when we've got the 10k that's sort of a collector item that's probably the main collector item i think that one yeah that was 2020 wasn't it ip and an oppo were both playable but they're very early on so looking at the collectible ones they didn't do so hot so this was the highest and most expensive price of like the group of any of them that i did and i thought it was a little bit too high to put it above like number five because it's just too expensive you know you not everyone can buy this so i don't think it's the best option but i'm going to put it at number five because i think it's a great option if you can get it i think it's a really cool set at number four i did a group from two different sets i had the stardust dragon and the black rose dragon in starlight rarity now this one i actually decided to do like because i was doing some reshirts and i noticed that if you guys check out the stardust dragon it's actually gone up quite a bit it used to be 530 for a long time it was like 600 on release it kind of fell down around 500 530 and then it's had a pretty big jump here what's come up to around this says 599 but if you look at the lowest listed it's $789 for the near mint so this card's actually up toward the $800 range and i've noticed that these starlights tend to move like in couple hundred dollars worth of value so normally they stay around the same price like i remember the effect valer was like 400 bucks when i bought it then a few months later it went up to 600 and it kind of stayed at 600 for several months and then it's now it's at 800 so it's going up like 200 bucks it doesn't usually go up like 20 bucks at a time it usually kind of varies around there squiggles around and then it goes up a bunch like in a in a cliff it goes up a cliff i don't know what the word for that is it kind of spikes up and then plateaus spikes up again so that seems to be the way the stardust or the starlights work and the stardust seems to have spiked up about two or three hundred dollars and i figured it'll probably hang around this price for a while and then maybe we'll see it bump up again because this is now like a year and a half old or something it's getting to that point where like once it's like two and three years old you don't really find dawn of majesty people aren't opening dawn of majesty because the value is not there if you guys saw me open it the other day the best card's like a nine dollar card besides of course the starlights so no one's opening it for the stardust so what's out there is basically out there for the most part unless you're a crazy person like me who opens it up so i think it's getting to that point where it's a nice buy and it would have been a lot nicer you know when it was 500 but and of course just like the exodia set it was really it's a really expensive buy-in you know you're buying 780 bucks or whatever and this is also why i wanted to bring out the black rose so the stardust and black rose are both playable in edison format so you can use them in in formats they're sometimes even playable and like more current formats and then of course they're just collectible because of 5d's and stuff like that so if you check out here the black rose is not bumped up yet so it's in the similar range it's around 500 i think it's like 490 for the low it's around the same as the stardust but it hasn't gone up to 700 800 yet so i think i'm not saying it's gonna go up to 800 like the stardust but maybe this is the one you buy in and then you get it before the the next spike up to the next plateau or whatever and because it's so similar to stardust being playable in almost all the same decks as it is in edison it's not quite as good as stardust or at least it's not as quite as generic as stardust as i would say but it's still pretty good and it's also almost as iconic so it's like the the little brother or little sister whatever you want to call it to stardust but it's not that much farther down so i wanted to keep these in the same you know number four overall i think these are both pretty decent to pick up and i do not have the black rose myself i would love to pull it so maybe i should hope some lia for lightning overdrive probably not though all right now we're moving on to number three of our top five here it's a generic tune chaos collector rares it's not all the collector rares but there are several i specifically noted the chaos ember dragon the blackluster soldier tune bls and the stardust those four are pretty big and not only are they big they're pretty cheap for the most part i wrote down the lowest price available so for the tune chaos chaos ember dragon 94 99 we're talking first edition too near mint 94 99 less than 100 bucks that one's just insanely priced then the tune bls is 284 99 which is not that cheap but it's also like used in goat format quite a bit so it's a high rarity for that so that's like the more expensive one tune bls is also really collectible because tunes blackluster soldier collector rare just a ton of stuff going forward there that's 195 99 for the lowest and then the stardust which we just talked about in starlight it's only 139 99 for the collector rare so it's not quite at that 780 it's at 139 so you can get a much better deal for that one but you do have to keep in mind that these are a little bit easier to pull because there's 15 collector rares you pull four per case usually sometimes three usually four per case so it's about one every four cases you would get a specific one versus the stardust like in the starlight it's about one every 10 cases so it's a lot harder to pull but it's also much much cheaper and i mean just very accessible like if you wanted a tune chaos number dragon you don't even have to pay a hundred dollars which a hundred is still a lot of dollars for like a yugioh card but when we're talking in the grand scheme of collectible things it seems extremely cheap for what it is and if you remember tune chaos was actually somewhat short printed because of like the covid stuff going on at that point so it's a hard set to find in first edition so 95 99 i mean i think the boxes are 300 dollars or something that's a third of a box to get one of the best cards you could pull i don't know it seems like a really good deal there's also some other great collectors in here but those are like the main collectors ones so i wanted to highlight those and the cd is like the main like the standout i mean yeah you don't use this in go format because it's banned but you can use it in some other like older formats because people are getting in all sorts of formats right now due to like like cmo and some other people doing a bunch of really cool series so that i mean that just seems like a great deal and the stardust as i mentioned earlier playable in edison so i mean that's just a great card for as for the two black star soldier nobody's really playing it but it's just a really cool collectible card so i thought this almost seems like a no-brainer to go check out some of these singles because if you're if you're battling opening tune chaos versus buying tune chaos singles go with the singles i mean that's almost always true but in this case it's almost a no-brainer because you'd have to open four cases of 300 boxes we're talking 300 times 12 times four so that's 36 times 4 120 i always mess up this mess we're at like 144 something like that 144 150 boxes whatever to pull you know a $100 card if you're looking for like the stardust or the blockbuster soldier or i mean that's 300 but for like the stardust or if you're looking for the cd so like it's a no-brainer to buy the singles in this one and the singles are just really quality so i think it's a really nice number three and definitely we're checking out oh and i need to throw in before we go past that one first ever collector wears i mean first ever of a rarity so is awesome card first ever of a rarity in this set so just a lot of stuff going for this set let's go to number two number two we're talking about a set which has some disappointment with it and you guys already know we talked about this set it's not just this set but there's just few specific cards i think you should check out from ghosts from the past too i have some of the low prices written down again dark magician girls only $200 that's the most expensive one blue eyes white dragon sdk artwork that's important it's the artwork that everyone really likes 149 69 i mean that's not bad red eyes black dragon we're getting real cheap down 66.50 for a red eyes from the original starter deck joey artwork insane these are all ghost rares cyber dragon 48.50 i mean that's cheaper than the ultimate rares by a mile and there's two ultimate rares so there's one ghost rares bloods ultimate dragons 40.95 i've always thought this was a cheap card dark arm dragon 41.93 and you can use that in edison decks i mean for your dad decks i mean it's insane all those cards i mean we're talking four of them are under $70 i mean you want to go sure i have a card that you've always wanted and if you guys remember i mean there's nine ghost rares in the set so it's not easy it took me 13 cases to pull that red eyes which is worth 60 bucks so they're not easy to pull i mean they're pretty crazy this was a mass printed set unlike toon chaos which had like a short print factor to it this certainly did not i mean there was a lot of this set out there and there still is but these are all really iconic cards i mean they're very very cheap like even if you i mean you don't spend a lot of money on yugioh this is less than a box for a lot of these like cyber dragon bloods ultimate and dad are like two-thirds of a box red eyes by dragons comparable to one box so you just decide you know what i'm not going to buy my box you know this month or whatever i'm going to buy this red eyes you know you're you're you're spending the same amount it's insane and even if you want to go big on the dark magician girl it's only $200 and dark magician girl as iconic as it is it's just a really desired card and no matter where we go people are going to want it and if you are able to grab these are near mint prices because you know if you open this set a lot of the time they came out lightly played these are near mint cards you know you're buying like the best of the ones you would pull you're not buying mint probably most likely but if you were to open one of these you have to open a ton of boxes you get a lightly played card instead if you just buy the single then you know you get the best one possible which is much much cheaper and no brainer in my opinion you guys know i love to open stuff but if you're looking for value in your cards you of course buy the singles and these singles are really really cheap from ghosts from the past too and we're still in the first year so i think that there's still time for this to grow i can't imagine like a red eyes going down much more for 66 bucks i think eventually you know a couple of years from now we're going to be looking back like wow red eyes was 66 out of this set you know blue eyes ultimate dragon was 40 cyber dragon people still play cyber dragon decks and the meta they could run three ghost shares for you know 150 bucks that's the whole play set that's insane so i think this is a very nice value set in terms of buying singles let's go to number one and let's see what topped it oh and i know i'm not supposed to be talking about the set but i'm just talking about engine in general most of the ghost rest from this set are some of the best investments at number one here's the only single card that i did for this it's just one card and i kind of mentioned it in our top 10 the other day go check out the top 10 best sets of 2022 if you guys missed it you guys can see it pop up right here this one i mentioned specifically the dark magician from battles of chaos and i kind of went through why i thought this was such a nice card in that video but i want to go through it again because i think first of all let's start with the price it's an $88 card this card was pulled about once per case usually sometimes it was you wouldn't even get one so they weren't even guaranteed per case but usually you would get one every case so we're talking 12 boxes to pull one of these so 12 boxes is 700 plus dollars for like retail and you get to like you know the the set's been gone for a while you know almost a year at this point maybe like two-thirds of a year probably not that cheap to buy a whole case of this set and you're getting an $88 card this card was also randomly inserted which i thought was really really cool they've never done this before that i know of to my knowledge i don't think they've ever randomly inserted a card not in like the rare slot it's like it could be you could pull a star light in the rare slot and then you could pull the dark magician in the same pack so that's not even an error that just happens so i thought this was awesome and really cool like value for opening stuff up and really awesome just like a chase for stuff you could get and not only that it wasn't just any dark magician i know yeah there's a lot of dark magicians out there it was an artwork we'd never gotten before so it's a new artwork it's randomly inserted it's super cheap at $88 and one cent don't forget the one cent i just thought this was one of the coolest ideas they've had in a long time and i think that as i mentioned before the negative press of people thinking it was a $600 card saying it was really hard to pull i was part of that that made people they soured toward it they're like ew that's the card that everyone said was really rare but it's not really that rare in reality it's still a rare card it's one every case i mean that's pretty rare and in reality it's also still it's not expensive but i think it should probably be more than $88 but people were just they're put off by it they didn't they're like oh my goodness i saw that it was supposed to be one in whatever we said six cases and it's one in one cases way cheaper it's not 600 bucks anymore 700 bucks it's you know 80 bucks but i think that stigma as we go throughout the years is gonna go away because only the people who are around for that like initial hype are gonna care about that eventually people are gonna look at and be like oh that's a cool card how do you get that oh you get it in a random pack you know at the back of the pack of the front of the pack and you never really know where it's gonna pop up that sounds exciting you know it's a new artwork i mean i guess if they reprint the artwork that could hurt it but if they don't reprint the artwork it's like oh that's the only place you get it that's really cool so i thought this was a really really cool card i think it's super unique i hope they do it again and maybe this will be the first of something that we see maybe we start seeing blue eyes red eyes other artworks come over in this way as well i think that would be pretty awesome and this would then become the pioneer of those kind of cards which we don't actually have a name for those maybe you guys can take one in the comments like you know floater cards or something i don't know they're just randomly in the pack i just think they're really awesome i think this is a great buy at 88 bucks and then that's that's near min of course so you're in great shape for great condition as well all right guys that's my top five modern investments in yugioh let me know what you think about them in the comments of course don't go out and spend all your money on these thinking that they're gonna go up because in reality yugioh cards don't go up that often but these are the ones that i think have great potential in the next couple of years but if you do go buy these i have a tcg player in ebay affiliate link down below that you can use and it'll support my channel so it

We've had a very good day. We had a lot of discussion. We went through at least six sheets of paper and for half the day, we kind of just got to know each other and what everybody was doing. We tried out the new super duper coffee machine with the tablet on it, which is very good. No, the first half of the day was to understand the aspects of each other's projects and then find some common ground between them. And once we'd done that, we realized that we were using perhaps three different wireless standards. Did I say standards? We were using the sub one gigahertz low power, which is the ISM, so either 433 megahertz or 868 megahertz. That forms the backbone of the open energy monitors transmit units to their data concentrator. 433 is great inside the home because being a lower frequency, it has good penetration of concrete and other dense building materials, much better so than some of the 2.4 gigahertz stuff. So we've got low power sub one gigahertz. We are also doing things potentially with wifi in terms of the ESP8266 and also to throw into the mix, I was keen to bring in some Bluetooth low energy devices. Now the great thing about BLE is it's supported by both flavors of smartphone and it's very easy to use your Android or your Apple smartphone to control devices over BLE and also to extract data from devices using BLE. But also BLE, you can have a peer to peer type network. So the idea is to have some sort of a Bluetooth low energy thermostats which is either a room based thermostat or an individual based thermostat, say on a pendant that can be worn perhaps by a senior citizen that can interact with the whole ecosystem. So to give you an example, normally this thing attempts to be smart, if you've got a mechanical TRV at home you're used to putting it somewhere between frost and maximum and then it maintains the temperature around here and this will do the same thing. But normally it observes, it also observes your occupancy the room and tries to cut the heat when you're not around and when you're not likely to be back, which is fine if you all agree on what that temperature should be. So this measures the air temperature around it to drive that. But if you could then have, can you have you got your dongle the Bluetooth little pendant thing? My voluptuous assistant will show the BLE. So if you gave this to an individual to wear about themselves or to put, no the little Bluetooth one, that thing, oops, or throw on the floor, put on the coffee table near them then that takes over and it's thermostat. It's temperature sensor which would drive this instead. So that's quite a novel idea that as you walk into the room your temperature profile then what drives the device? And also if you're sitting on a sofa only about 600 or 1,000 millimetres off the floor the temperature down here is a lot lower than it is up here. So having a personal thermostat that you have close to you means that your little bubble of heat is going to better be reflected by the overall control system. So if, for example, a senior citizen who's spending a lot of time fairly immobile, perhaps sitting down in a chair for a long period of time it means that they have the maximum level of comfort. And being a personal thermostat they would have some sort of a button on it where they can increase the heat level to suit their requirements. So that could all be done using Bluetooth low energy. Can we check in Laura as well? All right, okay, I learned a lot about Laura. I actually went out with a girl in 1980 called Laura but that's another story. This is, what's the acronym? Long range, low power, yes. This is quite a new initiative which allows kind of sort of kilometer distance type or multi-kilometer distance connectivity between a low bandwidth network and a device. So the way I sort of rationalized it's Twitter for IoT devices where they're sending 140 characters up to the cloud and they're maybe getting four character expletives back again. That was my understanding. Is that about right? So IBM, who were actually really helpful to us a few months ago and got us on Laura, it's really the smart city end of the internet of things. So curiously it's on the same band and using effectively very similar radios to these ones. But these, so BLA gets you within a room, sort of 10 meters, these will get you sort of 100 meters and Laura, which is in the same band as this is, I am, ISM, unlicensed stuff, will get you well one or two kilometers in an urban area and maybe 10 kilometers in a rural area. So you can see there's a whole span of different radio devices. There's not just one radio internet for things, but the Laura one, we are putting sensors in bus shelters in London. If you see a couple of dodgy looking guys putting things with wires in them in seats in London buses, that's okay, that's us. I'm very disappointed we haven't been arrested yet, by the way. And so the idea is we can go to the bus operator and we can say, yes, it really is possible to put a low power radio that will last for several months into one of the existing voids in the bus shelter in our case to sense the presence of people. And so it's, as you said, well, four different, five different radio things. So we were talking about bringing some of them together. Right, okay. We realized that we're dealing with multiple radio standards. There was no one size fits all. So we then thought about, well, what about the data packets that we're trying to send between these different radio standards? So the last couple of hours of our discussion today was basically to look at different packet formats, some of which Damon has already put a significant amount of work into that are not only authenticated but secure. So within, let's say, a typical packet that we can send over, say the RFM69, ISM, Chunsever, we can get a fully authenticated and secure packet that has a 32-byte payload. And so we discussed ways in which we could pull all this lot together and get it in to the, get it compatible with the Open Energy Monitor, Emon Pi, which is their base station cum gateway. So just as a little example, IoT tends to be done. Security is done, if at all, as an afterthought and often badly. Security's a cost, not a benefit in many people's minds.  If you're gonna put it on 400 million radiators, we really don't want it to be possible for board teenagers to turn people's heating off till it breaks. My nightmare scenario, never mind the privacy of burglars being able to tell when you're out, is also the board teenagers sitting on the 17th floor of a tower block, completely disabling the heating and nursing home next door in the middle of winter. So you've got to get security right. And so this thing is now spitting out, I'm sure you're all feeling the radio waves here, is now sending out stats about the room it thinks it's in and the radiator thinks it's controlling every four minutes in a completely secured frame format, which, so as you say, it has an authenticated element, which is the things like the IDs and the structure of the pack and what type it is, and a completely secure payload protected with, now I haven't written this myself, don't worry, it's not a homebrew thing, it's AESGCM, your browser can talk that as well. And that, we've had a number of pairs of, a number of sets of eyes, look at the implementation and the design and so on. So I'm sure there will be amendments to be made, but this, I think, would be tough for the NSA to break. And on that subject, by the way, I don't know if you remember little prism program that where they were eavesdropping on lots of people's telephone conversations and so on.  So we've got a connection in the NSA already. So the point is that if we were to, if the packet format we've come out with this is also usable for OEM, then suddenly OEM's internal wireless communications are safe enough that no one is going to be able to mess with them, either to turn things on or off or whatever in an unauthenticated way or to eavesdrop on the traffic. So that is the aim in getting the authentication and the encryption. Of course, you can just hit any spies with pieces of equipment that you've got there. And also because some of us are still into hardware, we had a very good session at a Google hangout with Martin Harazanov, who's based in Sophia in Bulgaria. Martin is rapidly becoming the expert at porting applications onto the ESP8266. And by means of a video link, he was able to give us his presentation. Martin some months ago produced this rather good three-channel relay board. One of our intentions is to build, this has already got the 8266 in, our intention is to put a little board in this area, which we can put the RFM69 and also a Bluetooth low-energy module, probably the RFduino, which uses the NRF51822 device. Build that into here. This goes in place of your central heating controller and this acts as the bridge between the various networks. So that's going to be a little ongoing project. How are we doing? So our proposals, we came out with eight things, most of which we've covered. So we're going to do the relay board with BLE and the RFM. We're going to have a continuing investigation into the NRF51 and 52 Bluetooth low-energy devices. The microcontroller board, the Y-Node 5 that I did for the open inverter, that's going to be made available. We've had some sponsorship from Ragworm and they've produced a number of PCBs for us. Unfortunately, they couldn't be here today. Hopefully I'll get the boards tomorrow. So perhaps at the next OSHUG meeting, we're going to be able to hand some of those out for anybody who wants to play with them. And we've decided that this Open Energy Interoperability Group is going to meet again during OSHCAMP, which is in early September up in Hebden Bridge.


Hi everyone, Joe for Jaspy's casebreaks.com. On a Sunday, last night we did the NFL kickoff mixer, which was pretty awesome. This is the random number block, the non-numbered base card randomizer for random number block two, featuring this group right here. So name on top, new dice, new list. Name on top after 11, we'll get the non-numbered base cards for the Titans, one, two, and 11. And there you go, Sean Healy, you'll get the non-numbered base cards for the Titans from that mixer, Jaspy's casebreaks.com.


About a week ago I made this it's Styrofoam bits and cement maybe by volume eight Styrofoam bits to one part cement ish somewhere in there I didn't really measure but it was just a test and it seems like it's strong enough to be useful. Now it took me a ridiculously long period of time to chew up this much Styrofoam with like a raspy file but this looks like it's promising enough that I want to make a some kind of fast Styrofoam chewer-upper machine thing and I'm thinking I can I don't have enough Styrofoam to do this yet but if I made one of these that was really big I could use that as a floating dock particularly if it was lined with a good layer of concrete that was reinforced with maybe some plastic netting or something something that would be fine in the water but I think that would make a really good floating dock or even just I don't know blocks for for building and stuff now I do kind of want to test this to see how strong it is I'm pretty sure I can break it with my bare hands. Oh yeah that was actually stronger than I was expecting I had to push on that pretty hard cool all right I want to make a machine thank what can chew up Styrofoam. The other obvious reason I want to do this I feel like this goes without saying but just anything where I can take garbage out of the garbage system and turn it into something useful is great because there's too much garbage in the world. My duck here is all anxious because he's waiting for his girlfriend to pop some eggs so he's hanging out with me today. I don't know what I'm gonna use for this so it's gonna start dark in here there's the file I used this is one of those rare occasions where I don't need stainless bearings so I can get my scrap ones out. Alright that's obviously too loose however if I take a piece of a slightly bigger pipe with a chunk cut out of it pretty good good enough for this. I found this in my junk pile not bad put something else on here later now I want this to have a fatter thing oh yeah about that thick wait a minute oh those bearings actually fit inside there is there any way that's advantageous I don't think so hold on a second those bearings fitting in here is advantageous because now this is lined up perfectly over this and if I screw a bunch of screws in it then I can pull the bearings out to where they should be and it'll be on the right spot oh Marble they asked me to kneel yeah behind me got me some good screws in here and I need to finish this kid car and get it out of my workshop so I have some space again a little bit short on these screws now because about a week ago some guys came by and said our propeller is slipping and we need to get home and they're about an hour away from home so I used a bunch of these screws to fix the propeller temporarily long enough for them to get home at least from a little short but that's okay it's worth it because they get to stay home with their families instead of being stuck out in the water somewhere so they work all right I got three of those hopefully those are going into the middle piece and if I pull this bearing out you shouldn't stay come on bearing get a grip son get a guard yeah put in the vise cool well looks like it should be something fancier than just a grinder wheel put a bunch more screws in there probably want more screws in that but I can put more in later boy it'd be easy to make a wood box and then the termites would eat it I can make a wood lid for a bucket keep that out of termite zone it's pouring rain outside so I can't get any wood from outside what have we got in here well there's this piece of wood I've got all this stuff on oh wait a minute right there that might be big enough the question remains if I'd known I was gonna need those screws so soon would I have still helped the guys in the boat I hope so hold on a second I should do it well if this works really well I can pop this up and put a drill on there let me see what I got here well maybe what the end piece might have gone in a little big well those are a little bit bigger than I want so maybe I should unscrew this piece of wood slide it closer in screw it back in just reduce that gap all right shrunk the gap on this side left that one the same that way I can do big chunks here little chunks here thank the bigger pieces but that's all right I think I might be able to do here hammer it there's my hammer they're pretty good something about them the incidental mess we all build a little thing around this oh yeah maybe I'll just get it off the floor when I'm done just sweep it up and put it that's not that hard to do any percent of it's getting in the bucket actually definitely more much fits in there yeah I think I need to do this over a tarp or garbage bag or something just around here so I can scoop it up at the end yeah and I'm not losing that much and it's all all the incidental pieces are just falling right around the bucket so I don't think it'll be that hard to keep it clean yeah I'm just gonna make a bunch right now this should go without saying but just in case this is dangerous if I touch that while it's spinning it will hurt my finger I trust myself to do this after years of you know working with table saws and band saws but I won't let my kids use this unless I put like some kind of box around this where you just drop the stuff in or something you don't have to put your fingers anywhere near it I'm mostly saying that just in case someone out there who doesn't have so much table saw experience makes one of these you got to be careful with your fingers or build a box around it so you can just drop the stuff in all right I've got most of a bucket of stuff now mix it with cement you know I was kind of concerned that that's those bits were gonna be like all over everything but they don't stick to things as bad as I thought I thought I was gonna be covered in them but it looks like they come off pretty well and they're not too hard to keep in one spot I'm not sure how to mix this without making a mess can I just mix it right in the bucket what do you think dude oh you don't want nothing to do with all right I think he's demonstrating how to mix the stuff if I just do that I'm not sure if that's gonna work doc I got some cement in here now I think it's about one part cement for six or seven parts styrofoam bits ish somewhere around there I didn't really measure to get some water I wanted to mix it up first so that I didn't end up with cement clumps so once it's wet it'll clump together looking about right back later so maybe I can find a huge amount of styrofoam which shouldn't be that hard because I know there's tons of it around and then I can make like a little area that has a tarp that'll kind of contain any bits and then I can make some big styrofoam stuff and why don't I just use foam concrete I wouldn't trust that to float for something like a floating dock also I have not yet made a fomer that's a whole separate project
