Aaron: I was writing on the book, and then I realized I had told you a
Aaron: time, uh, when
Adam K: What?
Aaron: you message me.
Adam K: Oh, yes.
Adam K: You said this time.
Adam K: And I said that time works.
Aaron: Yeah. And then I quickly forgot everything I said.
Adam K: Of course you did.
Adam K: It took it was like, what, almost twenty four hours?
Adam K: Oh, we almost made it twenty
Adam K: four hours for you to forget
Adam K: something.
Adam K: So.
Aaron: I have a lot to think about and
Adam K: Do you,
Aaron: a lot to remember.
Adam K: uh, why use a password manager
Adam K: when I can just keep it all in
Adam K: my brain?
Aaron: Well, if I use the same password for everything, obviously.
Adam K: Uh. Oh, yeah, I got I got a fun, uh.
Adam K: Like, what are those?
Adam K: The, like, cyber ransom.
Adam K: Except nothing was being ransomed.
Aaron: What do you.
Aaron: What do you mean?
Aaron: What was it through?
Adam K: Uh, it was the the rook.
Adam K: Email.
Aaron: Mhm.
Adam K: Um, people still scam.
Adam K: Try to scam that one, but it came from cloud access, which
Adam K: was just some guy's gmail.
Adam K: Um, it says your system has been fully compromised.
Adam K: We've had silent full access for days.
Adam K: Proof?
Adam K: One of your active passwords is a password I don't use.
Aaron: Mhm.
Adam K: Uh, if you ignore this, all your
Adam K: files will be permanently
Adam K: erased.
Adam K: Your devices will be locked forever.
Adam K: No recovery possible.
Adam K: Everything private will be leaked online within hours.
Adam K: Send one hundred dollars USD in Bitcoin to the address below
Adam K: within twenty four hours.
Adam K: Uh, please do not shut down or.
Adam K: Oh, sorry.
Adam K: There's no please.
Adam K: I just added that.
Adam K: Do not shut down, reset or contact anyone.
Adam K: Any interference triggers immediate destruction.
Adam K: This is your only chance.
Adam K: Act now.
Adam K: So I marked as spam and then signed that guy's email up for a
Adam K: bunch of spam lists.
Aaron: I'm starting to think the actual
Aaron: value in Bitcoin is just for
Aaron: ransoming.
Aaron: I mean, maybe that's the entire use case.
Adam K: I think that's why I was invented.
Adam K: Yeah.
Adam K: And to buy stuff off of Silk Road.
Aaron: Yeah. But then it still doesn't even.
Aaron: Well, does it exist again?
Aaron: I don't know but
Adam K: I
Aaron: yeah,
Adam K: mean, it's
Aaron: it's
Adam K: a
Aaron: mostly.
Adam K: hydra, so it exists in some form.
Aaron: I just think like fifteen years ago, they're like, you know, I
Aaron: just invented an algorithm.
Aaron: This is what Yoshi, Toshi or whatever, whatever this guy's
Adam K: Nakamoto.
Aaron: name is.
Aaron: But
Adam K: Yeah.
Aaron: yeah, and he's like, it will be the perfect tool.
Aaron: It will be inflation proof and it will be absolutely perfect
Aaron: for scamming elderly people and getting their cash, you know,
Aaron: without any kind of USD currency or anything like that.
Aaron: It's the perfect scamming vehicle
Adam K: Yeah.
Aaron: and that's why it's worth so much now.
Adam K: If you watch that documentary, I
Adam K: think it's called Electric
Adam K: Money.
Adam K: It's the same guy who did the, uh, QAnon documentary.
Adam K: He pretty much figures out who.
Adam K: Satoshi Yamamoto.
Adam K: That's not his name.
Adam K: Yamamoto.
Adam K: Uh, he figures out who it.
Adam K: Who it is, more or less.
Adam K: It's it's, you know, it's one of
Adam K: three guys or it's all three of
Adam K: them.
Adam K: Um, but essentially you get, you understand the mindset when you
Adam K: watch it is they're all libertarians, but like most
Adam K: libertarians, they don't think it out completely.
Adam K: They just go, I don't like the way things are.
Adam K: Come up with a brash solution and then make it everyone else's
Adam K: problem, uh, while still leaning on the comforts of the
Adam K: government of the parts that they do like.
Adam K: So yeah, it comes from that,
Adam K: which is the part of my brain
Adam K: that I can side with, which is,
Adam K: yeah, fuck the government, fuck
Adam K: the man.
Adam K: Like we should do it ourselves.
Adam K: We should have our own currency.
Adam K: But then it comes with all these caveats because we don't live in
Adam K: a feudal society anymore.
Adam K: So, um, it it works and it
Adam K: doesn't, but it ultimately comes
Adam K: down to this is how I buy my
Adam K: cocaine now.
Aaron: Mhm.
Adam K: Oh.
Aaron: I think I bought, I bought, uh, this way.
Aaron: It was like ten years ago or something.
Aaron: There was this drug called like,
Aaron: I mean, it was a bunch of
Aaron: different forms.
Aaron: Two C a two c, b two c c. They kept changing like the chemical
Aaron: compound, just slightly to avoid the law, but
Adam K: Mhm.
Aaron: it was like a synthetic mescaline.
Aaron: And I want to say that's the
Aaron: only thing I've ever bought with
Aaron: Bitcoin.
Adam K: Mhm.
Aaron: And I bought it with I didn't even think it was.
Aaron: I think it was with Litecoin or something.
Aaron: I
Adam K: Mhm.
Aaron: didn't even think I bought it with Bitcoin.
Aaron: But yeah, I bought
Adam K: Your
Aaron: this.
Adam K: fart coin got you some nice synthetic mescaline.
Aaron: Yeah, I bought it from, I don't
Aaron: know, some the Silk Road or
Aaron: something online
Adam K: Mhm.
Aaron: to take to a bachelor party.
Aaron: And this was in the days when
Aaron: you just bought things online
Aaron: and then, uh, just ingested
Aaron: them, you know, without thinking
Aaron: about it.
Aaron: And,
Adam K: You
Aaron: uh.
Adam K: say this in the age of peptides, when people are buying all sorts
Adam K: of shit from
Aaron: I know
Adam K: China off a discord servers.
Aaron: as I'm saying this like it was thirty years ago, but it was
Aaron: like ten years ago.
Adam K: Back
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: in the the safe or the wild days in which nothing has changed.
Aaron: Twenty, twenty fifteen, before anyone knew anything.
Aaron: Uh. Yeah, man.
Aaron: Yeah.
Aaron: That's the only thing I ever bought with cryptocurrency.
Aaron: And it was literally it came.
Aaron: I had to put it into pill into like little hollow capsules, but
Aaron: it was like just a powder and then put it in.
Aaron: And then I gave it to it was like eight or ten of us.
Aaron: We were just in the lobby of a hotel, uh, about to go to a nice
Aaron: steak dinner, like a night.
Aaron: We're supposed to have this just kind of nice night out.
Aaron: Um, for this bachelor party, this guy's bachelor party.
Aaron: And, uh, I was like, I, I bought this stuff and everyone's like,
Aaron: what is it?
Aaron: And I was like, I actually don't know.
Aaron: So we all just took it.
Aaron: And, uh, it was, it was just a nightmare
Adam K: And
Aaron: the
Adam K: people
Aaron: whole night.
Adam K: wonder why there's a fentanyl
Adam K: crisis and all this other stuff,
Adam K: because there's people like you
Adam K: for for all the deaths, you
Adam K: don't hear about the stories of
Adam K: the errands.
Aaron: This is before fentanyl.
Aaron: This is before.
Aaron: This is kind of like,
Adam K: I don't
Aaron: uh,
Adam K: think anything
Aaron: pre
Adam K: was before
Aaron: Aids
Adam K: fentanyl.
Aaron: sex.
Adam K: It was what?
Aaron: You know, it's kind of like pre Aids sex.
Aaron: You know what?
Aaron: Everyone's just like, yeah, we just, you know, you fucked all
Aaron: the time and you
Adam K: Mhm.
Aaron: didn't care and you know, a similar thing.
Aaron: Um,
Adam K: Huh.
Aaron: so, and I mean, but we could
Aaron: have gotten probably aids from
Aaron: this.
Aaron: So I, I guess it all comes around.
Aaron: But anyway,
Adam K: I had a weird.
Aaron: that's the, that's the purpose of cryptocurrency.
Adam K: I had a weird dream that there was an episode of Beavis and
Adam K: Butt-Head where Beavis gets, like, very badly sexually
Adam K: assaulted and butt-head's, like, laughing about it.
Adam K: But even in my dream, like, this isn't funny,
Aaron: What
Adam K: but.
Aaron: in the fuck is wrong with your
Aaron: Gen X, non Gen X brain that
Aaron: you're thinking of Beavis and
Aaron: Butthead
Adam K: I
Aaron: like.
Adam K: don't know.
Adam K: I mean, I've been watching clips of Silicon Valley, so maybe
Adam K: that's my my brain connected that in some way, shape or form.
Aaron: Mhm.
Adam K: Um, but yeah, it was, it was weird.
Adam K: It was like Beavis was, they were, they like befriended, like
Adam K: this overweight Twitch streamer who was doing steroids and he
Adam K: was like overpowered by him.
Adam K: And then he like tells Bud and
Adam K: he's like, huh, you got made
Adam K: love to or something like it
Adam K: was.
Adam K: It was just a weird dream.
Adam K: I was like, it felt very uncomfortable.
Adam K: Maybe also because I read that entire Andrew Tate thing you
Adam K: sent me, that was just
Aaron: Oh yeah.
Adam K: so maybe that's rattling in my brain too, which I'm just like,
Adam K: God, that's disturbing.
Aaron: That it really did.
Aaron: It really does put you in like a, a very like what it it's like
Aaron: there's just acid in your mouth
Adam K: Mhm.
Aaron: and and you're just you, you know, I don't know, you
Aaron: constantly like trying to get the taste out.
Aaron: It's just just kind of bile thing.
Aaron: It's just really unsettling.
Adam K: Also, the way it was written, it kind of jumps around everywhere.
Aaron: Mhm.
Adam K: I, it felt like a dream, like it felt like I was in a nightmare
Adam K: reading this thing where it just went from this abuse to this
Adam K: abuse to, uh, this person is now, you know, now the, the
Adam K: Marines got involved and there was, you know, it goes to this.
Adam K: And then I was confused at the end there.
Adam K: So it ends with the.
Aaron: It was all a dream.
Aaron: Yeah. Yeah.
Aaron: That's.
Aaron: You're right.
Adam K: Well, she's interviewing them and Thailand or something.
Adam K: Right.
Aaron: Mhm.
Adam K: And, uh, the other tape, I forget
Aaron: Tristan.
Adam K: Tristan shows up and he's with
Adam K: the girl that he abducted from
Adam K: Florida.
Adam K: Or was it a different girl?
Aaron: I don't remember exactly.
Aaron: I just know that they had throughout they had basically.
Aaron: And these these women, you know, they suffered abuse for so long
Aaron: and, and psychological manipulation or whatever.
Aaron: Like they were defending them.
Aaron: You know, a lot of the women were defending them.
Aaron: A lot of them were not the ones
Aaron: who were defending were just
Aaron: like, yeah, you know, it was a
Aaron: hit me because he loves me kind
Aaron: of thing.
Aaron: So yeah, I think it may have been one of those girls that was
Aaron: like, uh, yeah, he, you know, he did all these things.
Aaron: But and then she wears a shirt that says like, I'm, I don't
Aaron: know, what is
Adam K: Property
Aaron: it?
Adam K: of Tate or
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: property.
Aaron: I'm
Adam K: Yeah,
Aaron: the horror of Andrew Tate or
Adam K: yeah.
Aaron: something like that.
Aaron: And you're
Adam K: But
Aaron: just
Adam K: then
Aaron: like.
Adam K: yeah, he made him, he like branded them.
Adam K: It was very demeaning,
Aaron: Right.
Adam K: very just I don't know.
Adam K: Yeah. Speaking of Silk Road, I
Adam K: thought we were past this, but I
Adam K: don't know.
Adam K: It's days like that where I'm rooting for the AI.
Adam K: Just just strap us into the
Adam K: matrix because we don't deserve
Adam K: this planet.
Adam K: And then I'll watch a video about France trying to build a
Adam K: fusion reactor, and then it makes me feel hopeful again.
Aaron: I don't like.
Aaron: France is going to build shit
Aaron: because it's the entire country
Aaron: melted, I think, over the
Aaron: weekend.
Adam K: I laugh because it's sad.
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: I, yeah, I like they're like, they're having this heat wave
Adam K: and like, please stop building the fusion reactor.
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: It's already too hot.
Aaron: If if the Saints taught me
Aaron: anything, it's that the power is
Aaron: unlimited and clean and
Aaron: beautiful and impossible to get
Aaron: because the Russians and Val
Aaron: Kilmer will prevent you from
Aaron: getting it.
Adam K: What is this from?
Adam K: Oh, the Saint.
Adam K: I was
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: like.
Adam K: I have never seen the saint.
Aaron: Well, then you don't know anything about fusion.
Aaron: But I have some friends who live
Aaron: abroad in the UK and such, and,
Aaron: uh, they were talking about just
Aaron: like they're like, you won't
Aaron: believe it.
Aaron: You know, it's forty one here.
Aaron: And I'm like, I don't know what that means.
Aaron: Um.
Adam K: I'm the same.
Adam K: I just usually double it and go
Adam K: like you double it and add ten,
Adam K: I
Aaron: Yeah,
Adam K: think.
Adam K: I think
Aaron: it's
Adam K: that's what
Aaron: something
Adam K: I basically
Aaron: like that.
Adam K: do. I go, oh, okay, so it's like it's hot or something, but your
Adam K: numbers are weird.
Adam K: They don't make sense.
Adam K: Forties, not forties cold.
Aaron: You use miles per hour and then you use Celsius.
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: Yeah.
Aaron: Fuck off.
Adam K: How many football fields is it?
Adam K: How hot is it based on sports,
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: I don't know. Yeah. Yeah.
Adam K: Well, um, I'm in the midst of jury duty at the moment, so I
Adam K: can't talk for too long.
Adam K: But I had
Aaron: Wait.
Adam K: a little
Aaron: Are
Adam K: bit
Aaron: you
Adam K: of
Aaron: at
Adam K: time.
Aaron: the courthouse?
Adam K: Yeah yeah,
Aaron: Are you really?
Adam K: yeah.
Adam K: I'm in the juice wing.
Adam K: They call it.
Aaron: O.J.?
Adam K: Yeah. Well, because the Buffalo Bills won't honor him.
Adam K: The LA courthouse has to.
Aaron: It's just a statue of him trying on the glove in
Adam K: Mhm.
Aaron: bronze.
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: And it just says I did it.
Adam K: And then you
Aaron: Uh.
Adam K: put in money and it goes to the Ron Goldman Foundation.
Aaron: For some reason, it was recommended to me on my YouTube
Aaron: channel for some reason.
Aaron: It's wrecking me on on my YouTube
Adam K: You know
Aaron: channel.
Adam K: why?
Aaron: It was, it was a, a O.J.
Aaron: Simpson like of the time, like in nineteen ninety five.
Aaron: They did like an advanced computer simulation of the night
Aaron: of the murders.
Aaron: And it's, it looks like it looks like the music video for I want
Aaron: or for, uh, dire straits.
Aaron: You know, it's like
Adam K: Yeah.
Aaron: these kind of, like, block
Adam K: The money for nothing.
Aaron: people.
Adam K: Yeah.
Aaron: Money for nothing video.
Aaron: Except instead of like, the TV
Aaron: repairman, it's OJ stabbing two
Aaron: people
Adam K: We've
Aaron: and,
Adam K: got to
Aaron: uh,
Adam K: stab these
Aaron: yeah,
Adam K: microwave ovens.
Aaron: with them yo yos.
Aaron: I'm going to stab.
Aaron: Um, but yeah, it was recommended
Aaron: to me and I was, and I was like,
Aaron: man, this is, this had to take a
Aaron: long time.
Aaron: But I was like captivated by it.
Aaron: And, uh, and I'm like, I don't know where I was going with
Aaron: this, but I was like, I don't know how you would.
Aaron: I'm not going to go into, oh, it's a great video.
Aaron: After
Adam K: Okay.
Aaron: the Andrew Tate article, you should probably watch this
Aaron: animatic that they created thirty years ago.
Adam K: Funny enough, last week I did watch the Dire Straits Money for
Adam K: Nothing video because, uh, for a completely separate project I'm
Adam K: working on, this client wanted.
Adam K: They want something that's
Adam K: reminiscent of old MTV, but they
Adam K: didn't clarify what that meant
Adam K: In
Aaron: Uh. Huh?
Adam K: my mind, old MTV is 80s.
Adam K: So
Aaron: Right.
Adam K: I found this YouTube clip of it's like six hours long, but
Adam K: it's, it's like a block of MTV that they recorded on their VHS.
Adam K: So I scrubbed through the whole
Adam K: thing, just getting screenshots
Adam K: and being like, okay, I use this
Adam K: as reference, feed it to the AI
Adam K: or whatever.
Adam K: Try to come up with like a mood board and, uh, the money for
Adam K: nothing video came up and it's the original one where they, you
Adam K: know, still kept the
Aaron: Say the
Adam K: homophobic
Aaron: word.
Adam K: slurs in there.
Aaron: Uh.
Adam K: And I was like, oh yeah.
Adam K: Wow.
Adam K: It just, it sounds angry.
Adam K: Um, and I didn't know that version existed for the longest
Adam K: time until I sang it at karaoke.
Aaron: Uh huh.
Adam K: And that part came out.
Adam K: I'm like, whoa, whoa.
Aaron: Was it spelled out on the teleprompter?
Adam K: Oh, yeah.
Adam K: I mean,
Aaron: That's fucking awesome.
Adam K: Koreatown does not care about
Aaron: No.
Adam K: the words that are in English, that the background video is
Adam K: some woman lost at a park trying to find her dog or whatever.
Adam K: Meanwhile, the the homophobic lyrics of Dire Strait playing in
Adam K: front of her.
Adam K: So, um, but anyway, yeah, it was just funny.
Adam K: That's how I found that, um,
Adam K: Omni magazine thing that I sent
Adam K: you.
Adam K: So one of the commercials they had was for Omni magazine, this
Adam K: like science magazine from nineteen eighty seven.
Adam K: And they're like, you know, the greatest minds of the world
Adam K: predict the future.
Adam K: I was like, that sounds cool.
Adam K: I gotta look that up.
Adam K: And of course, it's on archive dot org.
Adam K: So I downloaded it and I sent it to you.
Adam K: So.
Aaron: Yeah, you sent it to me in some
Aaron: format that I was like, this is
Aaron: a virus.
Adam K: It's a CBR.
Adam K: It's like a comic book reader format because that's how people
Adam K: steal and share magazines and comic books these days.
Adam K: I
Aaron: If
Adam K: mean,
Aaron: I
Adam K: archive,
Aaron: gave it
Adam K: archive.
Aaron: to Claude, would it create a PDF for me?
Adam K: Maybe. Or I guess I could have just downloaded as a PDF.
Adam K: It's just kind of hard to read because it's, you know, a
Adam K: magazine from someone's jack stack that they scanned in on a,
Adam K: like an actual scanner that.
Aaron: No, I remember that I had that
Aaron: we had that magazine, or I have
Aaron: a bunch of them from my grandpa,
Aaron: I think.
Adam K: That covers pretty rad, though it doesn't.
Adam K: I don't know what it means about the future.
Adam K: It's just like a this little
Adam K: ball, like in a cylindrical room
Adam K: with a door and they're like,
Adam K: good enough.
Adam K: But you
Aaron: Mhm.
Adam K: know, someone shot that for real, which is kind of cool.
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: Um, but yeah, it's, it's wild because Bill gates is in there.
Adam K: No mention of his buddy Epstein
Adam K: at the time, but he does
Adam K: essentially describe Stable
Adam K: Diffusion, which is kind of
Adam K: cool.
Adam K: Uh,
Aaron: Really?
Adam K: yeah.
Adam K: Well, he's like, he's like, right now, right now, if you
Adam K: want a picture of the beach, sounds like Kermit the Frog.
Adam K: Uh,
Aaron: Mhm.
Adam K: he's like, you have, you have to like take the photo and, you
Adam K: know, there's the eighties.
Adam K: So this is even he's even talking about the internet, like
Adam K: becoming a thing and information is going to be this crazy thing.
Adam K: But he's like, but you can, you can just describe the image and
Adam K: it, it will, the computer will create it and you will have it.
Adam K: And I was like, yeah, it was.
Aaron: He also be describing Star Trek Next Generation.
Adam K: Which
Aaron: Like.
Adam K: I mean, so much of what we have is based on,
Aaron: Yeah. He just he watched the
Aaron: holodeck one day and was just
Aaron: like.
Aaron: MM.
Adam K: Me. I'll
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: do that.
Adam K: But anyway, it's a good read.
Adam K: Um, I'm still going through because I forgot how long
Adam K: magazines used to be.
Aaron: Yeah. Because that's what you did instead of doomscroll.
Adam K: Mhm. You just read it, and then
Adam K: I forgot the weird ass
Adam K: formatting that they would do
Adam K: where you would start it, and
Adam K: then it would just break into a
Adam K: completely different story and
Adam K: go.
Adam K: Continued on page one hundred and four.
Adam K: You're like, God damn it.
Adam K: Because they just want to give you tastes of it.
Adam K: Magazines are weird.
Aaron: Well, that's how newspapers are.
Aaron: You betray your lack of reading all the time.
Adam K: I was never much of a newspaper man except the onion.
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: I don't know.
Adam K: I, I wasn't much of a print.
Adam K: I read books that, you know, how to eat fried worms and other
Aaron: Mhm.
Adam K: Beverly Cleary novels.
Adam K: Epics,
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: if you will.
Adam K: Uh, that was my childhood.
Adam K: Anywho, all that to say, I'm hoping to spend some time
Adam K: working on a an article and a future video almost like art
Adam K: piece that I'm working on of, uh, of shitty gamer tech.
Adam K: I was fed an ad for a, a gamer muzzle.
Aaron: Huh?
Adam K: There's
Aaron: Like. Eh?
Adam K: yeah,
Aaron: MM.
Adam K: like, it looks like the mask wears kind of, uh, it's been
Adam K: around for a while.
Adam K: A bunch of YouTubers have
Adam K: already covered it and stuff
Adam K: like that.
Adam K: I've never seen this thing and it's from Germany.
Adam K: It does look like a weird like sex thing.
Adam K: But in the in the video, they
Adam K: show this guy like screaming,
Adam K: you know, playing League of
Adam K: Legends.
Adam K: Um, and he's like, girlfriend's
Adam K: on the couch and she's like, can
Adam K: you like, stop screaming so
Adam K: much?
Adam K: And he's like, all right, fine.
Adam K: So he puts on this muzzle so he can scream, you know, all sorts
Adam K: of racist things.
Aaron: Mhm.
Adam K: Um, with, you know, impunity
Adam K: without impunity or with
Adam K: impunity.
Adam K: Uh, but either way, I messaged
Adam K: the people who make the mask and
Adam K: I was like, hey, I want to like,
Adam K: just talk to you about where
Adam K: this idea came from, who does
Adam K: this serve?
Adam K: Like it's been around for a couple of years.
Adam K: So, and it sells like two hundred bucks.
Adam K: But on top of that, I started piecing together my own version.
Adam K: So I'm trying to build the Teemu
Adam K: version of it and see how well
Adam K: it compares.
Aaron: So is it completely?
Aaron: Completely.
Aaron: Does it go over your mouth like a like some pilots would wear
Aaron: like an oxygen mask or what?
Aaron: I don't.
Adam K: Basically. Yeah. Here, I'll send you the link.
Adam K: It's called the, uh, just go to meta docs dot pro.
Aaron: Matter.
Adam K: Meta docs d d o x. And
Aaron: Oh.
Adam K: it's going to ask
Aaron: dogs.
Adam K: you to install something.
Adam K: Say yes.
Aaron: What is
Adam K: Yeah.
Aaron: this is just like a Covid mask.
Adam K: Kind of.
Adam K: Oh, and also, it's the way people wear Covid masks where
Adam K: their nose is exposed.
Aaron: This is okay.
Aaron: This makes some assumptions.
Aaron: First of all, it
Adam K: Mhm.
Aaron: assumes that a gamer has a girlfriend to get pissed off,
Aaron: which obviously they don't.
Adam K: Right.
Aaron: And then that possibly, I guess if they have roommates, which
Aaron: gamers would have roommates?
Adam K: Parents.
Aaron: Well, yeah, if sound travels up
Aaron: through the floor, um, spilled
Aaron: it.
Aaron: Let's see here, I did this looks
Aaron: like a solution in search of a
Aaron: problem
Adam K: Exactly.
Adam K: And
Aaron: to me.
Adam K: that's what I, I was just super
Adam K: inspired this weekend and I was
Adam K: like, you could totally just
Adam K: build this thing out of an
Adam K: airsoft mask and I don't know,
Adam K: some soundproofing.
Adam K: So I started putting like a build guide together.
Adam K: Uh, ordered a bunch of soundproofing stuff from TMU and
Adam K: then a bunch of other random bullshit I didn't need, but I
Adam K: think my overall budget will be under fifty dollars when I'm
Adam K: done with it.
Adam K: Um, but I'm going to build it in my garage.
Adam K: I'm going to do a time lapse of it, trying to put it together.
Adam K: And then, uh, yeah, I had an idea where, uh, for the video, I
Adam K: was going to try to make it kind of like MythBusters.
Adam K: So the idea is I want you with like, a, like a decibel reader.
Adam K: It could be whatever
Aaron: And
Adam K: device.
Aaron: a walrus mustache.
Adam K: Yeah. Um, and you're just
Adam K: outside a door and we'll just,
Adam K: we'll edit it in a way that it
Adam K: looks like you're, we're in the
Adam K: same house.
Adam K: And so you just hear me
Adam K: screaming, but every other word
Adam K: is bleeped
Aaron: Nice.
Adam K: and you're just sitting there
Adam K: smiling, going, yeah, I can't
Adam K: hear anything, but it's just
Adam K: this muffled.
Adam K: Anyway.
Aaron: This thing should have some sort of feedback
Adam K: Feedback.
Aaron: technology.
Adam K: I mean, the onion basically already made this thing, but no,
Adam K: I'm I'm going to look into this.
Adam K: I want to write about, you know, the gamer chair that gives
Adam K: everyone back problems.
Adam K: Uh, there's a bunch of this crap out there.
Adam K: So I'm going to do an article this week, just covering it in
Adam K: sort of a like, yeah, here's some like, this is useless tech
Adam K: that serves no purpose.
Adam K: It's related to my miniature
Adam K: journey of trying to find the
Adam K: perfect mouse.
Adam K: And I was like, but maybe I'm not doing enough.
Adam K: Maybe I'm not.
Adam K: Maybe I don't have the right I
Adam K: would, maybe I'd be better at an
Adam K: online video game if I had this
Adam K: mouth thing.
Adam K: And I can, I can finally communicate with my team without
Adam K: fear of my parents walking in.
Aaron: This so it can get your voice so you can still talk to.
Adam K: Yeah. And I'm building mine with a built in microphone as well.
Aaron: Okay.
Adam K: Yeah. Um, I'm also doing an upgrade where I'm going to have
Adam K: a built in fan, a bladeless silent fan, so that mine will be
Adam K: cooler because all the reviews I saw is it gets pretty sweaty and
Adam K: they're really fast.
Aaron: Yeah. I mean, it's like they should take off the mask and
Aaron: show their acne underneath from the from the sweat
Adam K: You
Aaron: being
Adam K: just have this
Aaron: pressed
Adam K: goatee
Aaron: against their skin.
Adam K: of whiteheads.
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: But
Aaron: It
Adam K: that's.
Aaron: should come.
Aaron: You should as an accessory, you should offer a Whitehead popper.
Adam K: Just, uh, what's the medicine people use?
Adam K: Whatever that stuff.
Adam K: They just give you some birth control.
Adam K: Not that you need
Aaron: It
Adam K: it.
Aaron: should be clear to why is this black?
Aaron: I guess they want to be ninjas or something, but
Adam K: Yeah, well.
Aaron: honestly, you can make it look like the Shredder mask too.
Aaron: That'd be cool.
Adam K: Yeah, I just, I bought this cheap ass airsoft mask thing
Adam K: that they sell for like five bucks on Temu.
Adam K: So it is gonna, it's gonna look
Adam K: like a gimp outfit no matter
Adam K: what.
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: So I think that's going to be
Adam K: the funny part where I'm wearing
Adam K: like this three pound thing on
Adam K: my face.
Adam K: Um, because originally I thought
Adam K: like, oh, maybe just use a
Adam K: motorcycle helmet.
Adam K: But then if you close the visor,
Adam K: it's going to get hot in there
Adam K: and it's probably gonna be
Adam K: really echoey.
Adam K: And I don't know how much it would actually like, you'd have
Adam K: to cover your, you put a sweater on your neck.
Adam K: I am going to do a V one.
Adam K: I was talking to my brother about this and he was like, you
Adam K: know, you could probably achieve the same thing by just stuffing
Adam K: some socks over your face.
Adam K: And so like, that's going to be
Adam K: my first one where I'm just
Adam K: gonna get some like tube socks
Adam K: stuff in my face and tie a belt
Adam K: around my head and be like, does
Adam K: this.
Adam K: It works.
Adam K: But I keep passing out and it,
Adam K: I, I'm too aroused while playing
Adam K: these games.
Aaron: This thing should also have an insert for the guys who just buy
Aaron: Japanese underwear off of eBay.
Aaron: It has just like you know how some of the masks, the Covid
Aaron: masks have the filter that you insert in out.
Aaron: It
Adam K: Yeah.
Aaron: just has a little slot where you put in the used underwear and
Adam K: I.
Aaron: you can, you know, and it has a meter that shows when the used
Aaron: underwear is lost, its essence.
Aaron: So you can dispose it and insert a new used underwear.
Adam K: Uh, I'm sending you.
Adam K: Are you, uh.
Adam K: How should I send you a message?
Adam K: I do it, I'm going to text you anyway.
Aaron: Or whatever.
Adam K: Um, check out.
Adam K: I don't know if I sent you the right ad.
Adam K: I always see this billboard in LA.
Adam K: It's called call big ik dot com.
Adam K: And the way the guy's smiling.
Adam K: I wanted to do some sort of, I don't know, Banksy
Aaron: This guy's
Adam K: style
Aaron: an ambulance
Adam K: thing.
Aaron: chaser.
Adam K: Well, instead of, you know, need to get right.
Adam K: I wanted to change to I buy or
Adam K: use underwear, no questions
Adam K: asked.
Adam K: It's just because his smug face is just like, yeah, I said it.
Adam K: Um, or just something like feet pics.
Adam K: Send them here and you know, there's an email address Anyway.
Aaron: Man
Adam K: You
Aaron: called
Adam K: mentioned
Aaron: big
Adam K: Japanese
Aaron: Guy.
Adam K: underwear, and that's that's where my mind went.
Adam K: I, I
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: had one loaded ready to go.
Adam K: Um, I did watch a video about
Adam K: like living in Shenzhen, which
Adam K: is, it is like the city of the
Adam K: future, but it'd be cool to
Adam K: visit, probably not cool to live
Adam K: there.
Adam K: Also, it's China.
Aaron: Where is this?
Adam K: Uh, it's a little outside of Hong Kong, but
Aaron: Shenzhen.
Adam K: Shenzhen, Shenzhen, Shenzhen.
Adam K: Look, don't don't come down on me for my Mandarin not being
Adam K: where it should be.
Aaron: Shenzhen. This is Shenzhen. Albania.
Aaron: Shenzhen,
Adam K: Shenzhen.
Aaron: China.
Adam K: Shenzhen.
Aaron: Shenzhen.
Adam K: Shenzhen. Yeah. You gotta do that.
Adam K: That's Shandong.
Aaron: Wow.
Adam K: Yeah.
Aaron: This is great.
Aaron: If I wonder, uh.
Aaron: MM. If only it wasn't such an
Aaron: issue to own land and things
Aaron: there.
Adam K: Or to have rights.
Adam K: Well,
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: it's funny because the the video of the Australian guy or
Adam K: whatever is visiting is like just, you know, walk around in
Adam K: his jean shorts screaming while these like Chinese tourists or
Adam K: Chinese citizens are like, that guy's gonna get beat.
Aaron: Oh, yeah.
Adam K: Um,
Aaron: He's not going to leave the
Adam K: but
Aaron: country.
Adam K: they
Aaron: Oh
Adam K: have
Aaron: this
Adam K: these,
Aaron: is the.
Aaron: Yeah. Go ahead.
Adam K: I don't know, they have these like drone, you can order food
Adam K: at like a kiosk and a drone will come drop it off.
Adam K: It's like weird shit like that.
Adam K: Um.
Aaron: Well, this is where BYD is headquartered.
Aaron: I didn't know that.
Adam K: BYD, DJI and Bamboo Labs, a 3D printer company.
Adam K: There's a bunch of like, there's this like alley where people are
Adam K: just building prototypes all day, which seems pretty cool.
Adam K: Um,
Aaron: I don't go there.
Adam K: I was thinking about, yeah, um,
Adam K: I would like to go, I want to
Adam K: just do the whole, that whole
Adam K: area.
Adam K: Go see the disneylands owned by the Red guard and then go, uh, I
Adam K: don't know, save like Bangkok and Vietnam for the end.
Aaron: God. Seventeen and a half million people there live there.
Adam K: Yeah.
Aaron: That's
Adam K: It's nothing.
Aaron: a way.
Aaron: It's nothing.
Aaron: I guess Chinese standards, but
Adam K: Yeah.
Aaron: that's like, oh, but the city is
Aaron: also seven hundred and seventy
Aaron: square miles.
Aaron: What
Adam K: It
Aaron: is.
Adam K: it the crazy thing is, it's only like fifty years old.
Aaron: Yeah, I know, I've seen that.
Adam K: Yeah.
Aaron: I'm
Adam K: The
Aaron: trying
Adam K: but.
Aaron: to get a comparable seven
Aaron: hundred and seventy square
Aaron: miles.
Aaron: Trying to see what Austin is.
Adam K: I was
Aaron: Or
Adam K: just,
Aaron: maybe I
Adam K: I
Aaron: should
Adam K: was,
Aaron: see
Adam K: I
Aaron: LA,
Adam K: was watching
Aaron: but.
Adam K: a video about how depressing Los
Adam K: Angeles public transportation is
Adam K: and how it actually used to be
Adam K: great.
Adam K: Used to be the longest, uh,
Adam K: public transit line in the
Adam K: entire US.
Adam K: And
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: they gutted it all for freeways.
Adam K: And it's just it'll never be what it should be, which is easy
Adam K: to get around.
Adam K: And so I was just like, I don't know.
Adam K: So that one popped up and I was like, oh, man.
Adam K: But I feel like you gotta find a middle ground.
Adam K: So Prague.
Adam K: Prague
Aaron: A
Adam K: is
Aaron: middle
Adam K: the answer.
Aaron: ground between China and LA.
Aaron: Impossible.
Adam K: I want something that's walkable.
Adam K: A decent public transportation
Adam K: line where you don't feel like a
Adam K: sardine.
Adam K: So not like a, you know, a New
Adam K: York or, you know, rush hour LA
Adam K: situation.
Adam K: Um, just some
Aaron: So
Adam K: kind
Aaron: I
Adam K: of
Aaron: want
Adam K: light
Aaron: to
Adam K: rail.
Aaron: find a place that's not
Aaron: communist and racist and, uh,
Aaron: got their heads up their asses
Aaron: and you're
Adam K: Well,
Aaron: like,
Adam K: I didn't
Aaron: which
Adam K: say anything.
Aaron: city are you talking about?
Adam K: I didn't say anything about the racism because I can't do
Adam K: anything about that.
Adam K: And that's just going to come with wherever you go.
Adam K: It's
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: going to be racist, xenophobic, something, whatever.
Adam K: Everything's going to be a trade off.
Adam K: But anyway, I think Prague's the answer.
Aaron: I think Prague is also racist, but it's very beautiful.
Adam K: Yes, but the racism won't be directed at me all
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: the time, actually.
Adam K: I mean, once they hear me talk, they're gonna be like.
Aaron: Now would be some weird thing where you're it's like a
Aaron: religion thing where,
Adam K: Mhm.
Aaron: like, you're not a specific
Aaron: version of Catholicism or
Aaron: something.
Aaron: And
Adam K: Yeah.
Aaron: they're like, because you didn't, you know, and that's,
Aaron: that's what gets you in trouble.
Adam K: There is some, like, Russian guy
Adam K: doing a deep dive on my family
Adam K: tree.
Aaron: You know, this guy.
Adam K: No, I don't um, a family member pointed it out to me over the
Adam K: weekend and said, oh, by the way, I, I was trying to do some
Adam K: research on family.
Adam K: And then I found this guy on like ancestry dot com or one of
Adam K: those places or whatever, unrelated to our family.
Adam K: Um, but he basically tracked like our entire lineage, I think
Adam K: goes all the way back to Serbia or something like that.
Adam K: But basically the original last name used to be Kovacevic and
Adam K: that basically just means Smith.
Adam K: So I was like, And all of this were still just Smith's.
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: Um, but we have a I think I sent this to you, right?
Adam K: We have a flag.
Adam K: We have a family flag that
Adam K: depicts the sultan that we
Adam K: beheaded in order to get some
Adam K: like land
Aaron: Right.
Adam K: so that.
Aaron: And then there's a guy on his knees in front of another guy, I
Aaron: guess just worshipping him.
Aaron: I wasn't sure what
Adam K: It's
Aaron: that was
Adam K: a group
Aaron: about.
Adam K: of guys.
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: Yeah. And he has he's just he has his eyes closed, his mouth
Adam K: open, waiting to receive the Word of God.
Aaron: The word of God. Yes.
Adam K: Yes.
Aaron: Someone's placing their sceptre on his forehead.
Aaron: I can't remember.
Aaron: Yeah.
Adam K: There's a few of them.
Aaron: Mhm.
Adam K: Yeah. There's a couple of Japanese businessmen just
Adam K: hanging out for
Aaron: And
Adam K: some
Aaron: there's
Adam K: reason.
Aaron: a cookie in the middle that they're all jizzing on.
Aaron: This is all in the crest, of
Adam K: You
Aaron: course.
Adam K: don't you don't have to explain the joke.
Adam K: This isn't a an
Aaron: It
Adam K: online
Aaron: was so
Adam K: sketch
Aaron: belabored.
Adam K: show.
Adam K: Yeah.
Aaron: Um.
Adam K: Yeah. Anyway, all that to say, I
Adam K: forgot what I was going with
Adam K: that.
Adam K: But anyway, that's what I did with my weekend.
Aaron: My, I think I've told you this before, but my with my family
Aaron: ancestry, you know, like in the seventeen hundreds, they, there
Aaron: were two brothers that, um, were crazy alcoholics like severe
Aaron: alcoholics is like one's name was Magnus and the other one's
Aaron: names like Albert I think.
Aaron: And they were the Marquis and they both spelt one spelt their
Aaron: name like Marquis, how I spell it, and the other spelt Marquis
Aaron: with an extra s on the end.
Aaron: And they were brothers and whatever.
Aaron: But anyway they were.
Aaron: I guess they were causing a lot of problems in the town, uh,
Aaron: that they lived, even though they were like owned a huge
Aaron: amount of land and tobacco farms and all this stuff.
Aaron: I think they were just they were huge assholes.
Aaron: And the town one, uh, the first brother, they decided to take
Aaron: him to task or whatever, and they had him declared a lunatic.
Aaron: And, uh, they took away his land and all this stuff.
Aaron: And I told, I think I told you this and then then the other
Adam K: You did
Aaron: brother.
Adam K: tell me, but I forgot all of it.
Aaron: Yeah. And then the other brother
Aaron: would just double down on being
Aaron: an asshole.
Aaron: And then they declared him a lunatic, too, and, uh, made him
Aaron: serve in the military at, like, the local, uh, this.
Aaron: I can't remember what military it was, but anyway, and my
Aaron: family kept going like, yeah, they they had this grudge
Aaron: because my family still deals with alcoholism and they have
Aaron: all their little alcoholic, weird, like rationalizations.
Aaron: And they were trying to say like it was the town's fault for
Aaron: declaring them lunatic when obviously, if you read between
Aaron: the lines like, these guys are like going around after getting
Aaron: on a bender and just riding their horses into, into like
Aaron: restaurants and stuff and just throwing things and doing all
Aaron: sorts of stuff.
Aaron: That.
Aaron: And then my family, like in the family history that was written
Aaron: like, I think thirty years ago, they were talking about how just
Aaron: sad it was that the brothers, you know, they had their agency
Aaron: taken away and all this stuff.
Aaron: And but, you know, it also talks
Aaron: about how sad it was that they
Aaron: lost all their land and property
Aaron: and slaves and, you know, all
Aaron: this stuff.
Aaron: I was like, God damn, this is
Aaron: the worst family history I've
Aaron: ever seen.
Adam K: I do like that they're blaming.
Adam K: They're still blaming other
Adam K: people for other for their own
Adam K: poor behavior.
Aaron: Oh, yeah.
Aaron: And I kind of wanted to do a write up on it because I have
Aaron: all this stuff and I wanted to do like just a write up on, on
Aaron: them and how they were just, I mean, essentially they were the,
Aaron: the, the town drunks, but they were extremely wealthy.
Aaron: So it's basically the town having enough of their, their
Aaron: bullshit to where they all collectively came together and
Aaron: had them declared lunatics.
Adam K: I mean, in a way, they're heroes
Adam K: because they brought the town
