We used to be gamers

Welcome to a very special episode of the stand up.

We are gonna have a stand up that will end when this task of Ralph ends in the background.

It's just gonna keep on chugging along and we'll see what it builds at the very end.

Or this podcast will end before it, oral and afterwards.

You know, it's just some condition I put on there and we're not really sure.

This week, we've decided that the new cycle, just not that much fun, you know, going on Twitter.

It hasn't been the highlight of my week, so therefore we're gonna do something a little bit different,

non-tech-related.

What is your favorite video game?

Or games.

I don't want to necessarily limit it to just one, because that's too hard.

Yeah, we don't need to do it.

You know what? Actually, honestly, that's usually how we do that.

You can't just give, like, hey, what's your favorite thing?

And you give, like, a couple of answers, like, no, what's your favorite?

And that's what's, like, a handful of things.

I asked for your favorite.

Are we picking just one?

Right down.

Yeah, favorite right now.

So it doesn't have to be favorite all the time.

So this is not, like, oh, put it, ocarina of time when I was 10 years old was the most meaningful game I've ever played in my lifetime.

All right.

Oh, hi.

Okay.

All right, now that I know the rules, that's easier.

All right.

Now, I know, Began, you've traditionally been banned from video games for the last, like, what?

Decade at this point, but what is your current favorite video game?

Honestly, I've been playing terraria alone.

Okay.

Is this why you haven't been responding to my DMs?

Yes.

Okay, all right.

Because you're bad at terraria.

Is food poisoning terraria?

It's just a quiz.

It's just a quiz.

Is food poisoning in the room with us right now?

What is this game?

You've never played terraria.

No.

It's 2D Minecraft.

It is amazing.

It's 2D Minecraft.

Like, you picked different classes.

It is passion.

Have you ever played Minecraft?

Yeah, I hate Minecraft.

Yeah.

You hate Minecraft?

Minecraft's the only game there.

Why is motion sick from?

It's the only game.

There's no other game that I get it because it's the perspective is a little bit off.

All the squares are like this slightly diamond shape, and I've just never been able to get used to it.

I don't agree with that.

Not at all.

It's not just fall.

Oh, install any NPM modules lately.

Why?

Yes, I have.

Sorry, sorry, reference Twitter drama.

My bad, my bad.

Already back the Twitter drama teach.

Come on.

Yeah, my apologies, my apologies.

No, honestly, we should all, I wanted actually playing a little session with the squad here in play terraria.

That would be fun.

You play hardcore mode, you know, where you die.

But it's the classic thing.

You dig for materials, you build weapons, you fight bosses, you build worlds.

It's all like a platformer.

Instead of three days.

Is it like, is there any like skill in the platforming involved or is it really just like we're digging, we're doing stuff?

Incredible amounts of skill.

Incredible.

Probably you wouldn't be able to do it.

I know that won't work, but we'll also there is an entire, someone built a 32-bit computer in terraria,

which guys, there's actually a video prime reacting that two years ago.

Yeah, yeah.

You can build terraria.

Someone built a 32-bit computer in this video game because they actually give you all the games.

Is it complete?

Yes, 100%.

No, they built a computer that's not terraria compliant.

Well, well, I was getting at like, does it actually work?

I was getting at, does it actually work?

Great question, Trash.

Okay.

Trash, they made it a little easier.

They literally were like, cool.

Here's wires in every single gate.

They just, they literally were like, here's assembly.

So it's, it's even, it's really, really easy.

Also, I've been using, this is crazy, but I've been using chat GPT to design terraria circuit,

to design through me.

Excellent.

Is it actually good at it?

Oh, I believe that.

It literally prints out exactly the schematic.

You tell it what's it want you tell it how you want it to evolve.

It's really, literally, the first one worked right away.

And I've been going further.

So if you want to build, so that he built 32-bit computers, I'm working on a 33-bit computer.

Damn.

I don't want up him.

So yes.

I don't even know what that means.

Well, it has 33.

It's one more bit, Brian.

I have to say, just because people haven't been following us around all week.

My favorite thing so far was we were talking to Josh about 32-bit float sound.

Yes.

And then I made the joke.

I was like, oh, well, I prefer 64.

It has double as many.

And you just acted like that made sense.

Okay.

So 32 times 64 is not.

You're still going to keep laughing again.

32 times two.

32 times two is 64.

Yeah, that was.

You keep doubling it.

Right.

So why am I wrong?

No, no, no.

32 times two is 33.

Great.

Yeah.

That is 33.

Yes.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Okay.

Hey, for every action, there's a reaction.

Hey, guys.

Look up exponents in your free time.

If you forgot it from like fourth and fifth grade.

Hey.

Is that HTTP?

Get that out of here.

That's not how we order coffee.

We order coffee by a SSH terminal dot shop.

Yeah.

You want a real experience.

You want real coffee.

You want awesome subscriptions.

So you never have to remember again.

Oh, you want exclusive blends with exclusive coffee and exclusive content.

Then check out Cron.

You don't know what SSH is.

Well, maybe the coffee is not for you.

So it's a terraria.

Terraria is mine.

I think, honestly, I'm excited.

I'm actually going to do a little programming in terraria this year.

And I'm trying to also convey.

You guys got me saying terraria.

It's terraria.

Terraria.

Yeah.

I'm trying to convey everyone.

I'm trying to convey.

Can we pause?

You're saying you knew it if he said terraria, but you didn't know it.

No, I had to look it up and I googled terrarium.

It brought up like a bunch of plants.

And I was like, all right, I don't know the game.

I play a plant game where I make virtual terrariums.

By the way, Ralph said it's gone.

Okay.

Great podcast.

Seven seconds.

Great podcast everybody.

We didn't even acknowledge.

I love Galactus.

I'm very happy here.

No, but seriously, what's terraria?

Can you, uh, can you do like plug-ins so we could say plug-in a server?

Like mods?

And serve something off of, like, serve something off of it and do all of our programming

in terraria.

Okay.

So we've got, okay, that's not how I tell you.

Good news.

Good news and bad news, okay?

Actually.

You can't.

Good news and bad news.

You can't do mods.

Bad news.

You have to do them in C sharp.

That's fine.

There's something called chat.

That's a bad jippity that can write great C sharp for me.

So I'll never have to learn it.

Oh, I didn't know.

I didn't know a new C sharp yet.

That's awesome.

That Microsoft remember the whole Microsoft open AM.

That's why they bought it.

Okay.

Yeah.

They've been preceding it with C sharp knowledge this whole time.

You can, you can definitely not it.

It's cool.

Yeah.

And I also do think I've looked at some of the mods.

I think everyone out there are like video game players who are modding it.

They haven't had like, like, clinically insane programmers modded yet.

So I think we're going to take it to a pretty good level this year.

Okay.

I like that.

Okay.

So with that, with that mind,

this being your favorite game right now,

I would be down to do like a week.

Like what can you build in one week?

Yeah.

Wait.

So it's whatever game we pick primates to play for a week.

No, that's not what we're doing.

Okay.

I was just wondering because I was thinking,

Okay.

I've changed my answer to anime girl feet picks.

No, I don't think so.

No, I was going to pick.

I'd have to think about it more.

But I didn't know that was on the table.

I was just recalculating.

Well, I've just seen your list to this.

And this seems like we could do a lot of cool stuff with it.

Yes.

And so it's just like, okay.

We have Twitch chat.

We have YouTube chat.

Yep.

We have a week.

What if we all sat down and said,

what are we building?

Can you save terraria games to get?

Can we find a way to do version?

With code, all things are possible.

With through code, all things are possible.

It's true.

Except for traveling salesman.

You could still do it.

We just don't know how to solve it efficiently.

Okay.

A tough guy.

Sometimes.

Is that even, is that even,

is that even considered solve?

If you can never actually see the answer.

Yeah.

Is a problem ever solved if no one sees the answer?

Okay.

Now we're getting the philosophy.

That's next week's podcast.

That is going to be a great podcast next week.

Yeah.

All right.

Prime, what's your favorite game?

Right now, my favorite game has been Slay of the Spire.

It's been the Slay of the Spire for the last six months.

It's the only like,

it's the only outlet that I currently have that is non-programming

right now or family related.

Can I be honest, the reason why I was addicted to Slay of the Spire

is because it's on his phone.

It is.

If you give him like on candy cards,

it's so easy.

He was so addicted.

I have no first off.

I can't because candy crush is too much luck.

I hate candy crush.

I hate it with that.

That's what a move would say.

Candy crush is fun.

I played it like 10 years ago.

Also, yeah, I played it 10 years ago.

It was very, very frustrating.

But the reason why is that.

Candy Crush was very frustrating.

There's a thousand grandmas and moms playing it all day.

That's because, okay,

I'm going to say something that's going to sound really me now,

but I'm just going to say,

I think that you have to have not a lot going on upstairs

to enjoy candy crush.

Okay.

That's what I'm saying.

It's a toilet game.

It is.

It's a toilet mind game.

It's a toilet mind game.

Wait, wait, wait.

So you guys play mindless games in the toilet?

That's what I do my best thinking.

I do my most, I do challenging video games in the toilet.

That's what I ask.

That's what I ask.

I like to usually pick my civilization next turn on there,

because usually right now where I'm at,

it takes me 20 to 30 minutes to exactly choose

what to do over my whole turn.

So you should get out one turn when I'm in there.

Why are you laughing at that?

You would be the absolute worst person in the place.

Okay.

First of all, I play Siv a lot.

It's one of my other favorite games.

And I'm really good at it.

With humans or with computers.

Okay.

There's a lot of other humans.

I don't know.

Just like terraria.

Do you get strikes me as the one guy who,

like when it's his turn,

everyone gets up and makes snacks?

Yes.

Yes.

You would also be horrible to play Catan with.

I'm asking.

Hey guys, hey guys, hey guys.

Big it.

No one likes.

I need logs.

It's like we don't have logs.

No, no, no, no, no.

I need logs.

I need logs.

It won't let us turn.

It does.

Someone trace a log.

I know one of you guys have logs.

I know what.

I know what.

I know what six was rolled last round.

And gave me your logs.

Alright.

So I know I'm gonna give myself.

You have three logs.

Prime.

I know you have one log left.

He's a hard cat.

I know I'm gonna get more trouble for this,

but I get Kid and Vince Lindsey to play a couple of games

and the gathering with me.

Yep.

But the style of the gathering I've been working on is how to build

like little computers and infinite loops in it.

She was not happy with it.

So you can build little.

And actual infinite loops.

Like there's four card infinite loops,

infinite loops. So that's my goal. And then so when I'm playing with her, it's like,

okay, you're turned good. We're teaching fantastic. Now for my turn, 45 minutes later, 100

percent. And so she, she quit. She won't play anymore.

Who could have saw that coming? I just can't believe this. I'm like, aren't you impressed?

Aren't you proud of me? Look at, I'm a computer scientist. Look what I've done.

Is it like draw for cards? And then you kind of just keep going. Yeah, it'll be something like

every time you draw a card, you know, you're able to discard a card. If you discard a card,

you're able to add an extra guy. Every extra guy you had, you can draw a card. Uh-oh. We're in a

loop. I also do this online. And I have, I mean, a lot of people have done this before, but I crash

the match of the gathering arena often when I get on purpose. That is the, that is the point.

That is my only goal. How many cards does it take? How many times around this loop does it take

for Decrash? Oh, for those ones, well, those first ones, one turn. But I might, I might have

something like, I mean, the loop of like discard a card, get a guy. Maybe like 70, 70 times,

but it's not just about like the loop. It's about what you're gathering, because each time I make

things more and more. So I, I tend things where it's like every time I make a new food, it makes

a new squirrel, I mean, you squirrel, I make, makes a new rat. And then I say all times I make

any token doublet science. So, so then, so yeah, so then it's like, when I'm doing this loop, I go

one loop around two pieces of bread, two squirrels, two rats, one more round, two pieces of squirrel,

two breads, two rats. And I just keep doing that. What do they grow? Time's more efficient. Yeah,

I was about to say, because 70 times that is 100. No, no, no, no, there's, there's, there's

exponential ways. There's other exponential ways. There's ways of saying, take whatever the highest

attack power is and add it to all of your creatures. Right. So that means what's going to happen.

Right. It's going to double and then double. Exactly. Exactly. It's a times two malt. So I got

really excited about this. And then I got on the internet. It's like, I'm going to make some

friends who play magic. And then it was a thousand threads of on right out of people like, I won't

play with these guys. Anyone who's into doubling and doubling tokens, they're the worst. And I was

like, I thought I found this on my own. And I thought I, I didn't know. Shocking that vegan

wet and played magic figured out a strategy that makes people not want to be his friend. Okay.

Then he sounds like so. So I don't like the guy ever. Trash, we got to get you over to magic.

Pokemon ain't the way. Okay. We're going to get you. But no, no, you don't play Pokemon. Yes,

you do play Pokemon. No, no, you can. No, you can't. You see what he just said there. He holds

on to Pokemon. There's a vast difference between playing. Well, I think Trash, you would be doing

the same thing if you were in the magic, right? You just be holding cards. Is that the, is that the

joy of it for you? Grabbing the collect them. Yeah, right. That's what I'm saying. That's why he

looks at the value of collecting them. If you don't play with them, I like the look at them.

So are you the guy that I will catch me in my office? I'm just staring at my seal collection. I'm

like so cool. So when you make a Lego, do you just put it on the shelf? You're just done. You

make a Lego. You put it on the shelf. So I have like a seal collection. No, when you put a Lego

together, some people put it on a shelf, you put Legos together. Lego would be the company. No,

each set is a Lego. Legos make a Lego. He's not going to understand. Okay. The circuits aren't

going to connect there. Okay. I don't understand. This is why he gets the infinite loops and

magic right here. What I'm saying, there's two types of people. There's people when you make a Lego

set, that better. You just let it sit. Other people like myself, I will make a little spaceship

and then I go like this. That's like the fun of the Legos is after you build it going. Not

it's appreciating and value on my shelf. It's like a price that's what you do. Well, I'm not

going to sell. I'm no intended selling at least now, but I like to just look at it. All right,

so back to play the Spire as a thing that I really, really like. I like to play the Spire

because I keep losing at it regularly and I feel like I should be better than TJ. But TJ's

ascension 19 on this guy. It makes me very angry that TJ's ascension 19. It's a high IQ game.

So normally I played Ironclad and I think I got up to 10 or 11 on my last phone in this phone

and I'm back down to six. It doesn't sink between them. I don't know why. I'm signing the same

Google thing. We don't have that technology. It was lost. It was lost in TJ. Ever since COVID,

we lost the ability to sink between times. Again, we don't know what's sinking between devices.

My what's your Google like little handle that I generated for you. I don't know, but it has a

guy at the top hat and that's all I know and I'm not going to say the email that it's associated with.

Yeah, mine is like Corellius jelly and it makes me laugh every time. I don't know exactly what it

is. I've never seen all of the letters closely enough to use your name. I think you can, but I just

like this. It goes. Yeah. And then it goes away. So yeah, I probably have some fun in my

course. I'm like Corellius jelly and it makes me laugh every time. Yeah, exactly. Wait,

prime, do you only play sleigh on your phone? Yeah, the ceiling game. I tried to, okay, so I did

download Clash Royale. So I could play with my kids and then I played for a little bit and I just

went, man, this game's kind of stupid. And I just don't want to play it because I don't like any

kind of like buy-to-win games. And it definitely has a lot of buy-to-win mechanics in there. You've

got to play, yeah, you got to play for a long time. Yeah, either you're grinding time or dollars

now. It's just like, I don't really want to do either. So, my teacher, when you play so the

spy, do you play on your phone, playing your computer? Well, say on my computer. Okay, a little bit

on my phone though. Okay. Yeah, my computer is higher. My computer is my like further. I just

feel like I play so much better when I'm on my computer. I like being able to press one to three

four five hundred percent. Yeah, well, I also just like this feels good, but I have the dumb

thing where it's like when you swipe from the bottom of the phone, that's what makes it go to like

show all your apps. Oh, yes, yes, yes, because I don't like the buttons because I like the like

I live on the I live on the buttons. I live on the buttons. I like that I have approximately

point two five more inches of screen real estate for absolutely no reason on the bottom by making

the buttons go away. So then I like the gestures. I don't like how big you exaggerated that.

Is it not how much do you think it is? Well, considering they're that big, I would say like a

centimeter. That's pretty close. You said two five. Oh, I thought you said two point five.

This is America. Don't be talking about a centimeter. We don't believe it. What's a centimeter?

What's a centimeter? How are you comparing inches to centimeters? Anyways, they don't convert.

That's like apples to oranges. Like thank you. Finally, someone who understands.

All right, trash. What's your game right now? What about you?

Hey, me trash. You know, we didn't even acknowledge that we're live together in person.

It's great point. Trash, we're live together in person. Did you know that? I didn't realize

I missed an intro. Do the intro and we'll put it at the beginning. I'm the worst. I just one thing I

am a little bit shocked about is the fact that you showed up this really nice place with this

this really nice studio in a Tostito sweater. It's such a snack in the day boys. I'm taking it home

after we're done. Also, I so did. I cannot believe that they sponsored trash. I cannot believe.

Yeah, I've not seen the sponsored many people. Yeah, I'll actually get sponsored.

I'll plugged in, but it literally says trash dev on the back because it's with his jersey number.

Yeah, it's a jersey number. That's pretty good. That's pretty good.

Tostito. Please sponsor me somebody in the middle trash. It's what frees next. Wait, what?

Don't you think it looks like two people and then they got like a kid with them or something?

Oh, that's the extra hand. Two people and they're dipping a chip into salsa.

Yes, that is the logo. Well, I was thinking that was the kid. Wait, hold on. That's the that is the logo.

Yes, it's two people sharing a chip dipping it into the red salsa.

Whoa, my mind is so blown that two people share a chip like out of all things to do.

They just never shared a chip with your wife. No, that's just why would you why would you hold the same

chip anyways and dip it together?

I mean, it's romantic. You've seen lady in the train trip with the noodle.

Yeah, but it's not the same thing. You can't hold on it at all. It snaps like a little

little different different cultures have different things that they like to share. That's fine.

Yeah, what do you want me? It's chips. I think you're calling yourself a different culture.

Yeah, we share the chip. I'm not a dog. He is from the Midwest. That's a totally different culture.

And they're very they're in what New York in lady in the tram. Yeah, exactly.

Yeah, I was like, are they? I don't even remember the movie.

Yeah, we're doing a little we're watching after they share they share a noodle in that one.

My mind is blown that there's two people. I know. This is shocking.

Are you sure? Like that's that's like that's like it has. I don't I mean, I didn't ask anybody from

Tolstitos before I made the claim, but I'm pretty sure. No, that's true. Yeah.

Tolstitos leave a comment. Let us know. Tolstitos. He loves you even more now.

I know sponsor. He definitely does. She'll Tolstitos off camera.

Yeah, sometimes we're like, okay, dude, we got it. We actually don't like Tolstitos at all.

Okay, okay, okay, how we just we shut we were this close. We almost had him almost got

her first. He was surely I'll do the dip, but that's all I care about. That's what I think.

They have such a wide range. I'm just something must appeal to you. There's lime.

Oh, no, you like that. Wait, have you had the scoops? Scoops with the salsa. I do love scoops.

Scoops are pretty good. We're back. We're back. We're back.

Scoops are a good leader. Yeah, but here's the deal trash. Like if we're going to be out here,

trying to sling you some sponsors, like you can't just torpedo the first one or get new,

because it really makes it hard for any follower. We're out of time. It's just like when Mark Zuckerberg

followed him around in New York and kept going at every meeting, because we've watched

the social networks who are pretty much experts. Yeah, there's been a lot of social network

references. I had no idea what you're talking about. I was like, what? I am very into this social

network right now. Yeah. Okay, so back to my favorite game. Yes, I don't really game much anymore.

Okay, the only game I do have is on my phone is Pokemon Go. Obviously. You're still playing Pokemon Go.

Yes, actually, I have a team challenge. I need to complete someone work on that afterwards.

Okay, well, I have never actually played Pokemon Go. What does that mean to have a team

challenge and how does one? I don't know. It's kind of new. You just kind of like work.

For instance, you can have a group of your friends and you have to catch like a hundred Pokemon

in a week. That would be like an example. Okay. How do you find your team? Just friends.

That's like how to find your friends based online. Okay, what websites?

Because like I need to have any tips and tricks. How can I be normal in these groups so people

play? I'm a little bit shocked that the goal is like catch a hundred Pokemon because it kind

of sounds like World of Warcraft or it's like you get to the next spot and they're just like,

hey, go get 20 feathers for me. It's just like, it's just like, it's just like, it's just like,

I was grinding. What else can you do in Pokemon Go besides Catch Pokemon? You can like raid

with your friends. What is raiding me? I don't know because I don't raid.

So you just, I think, I think I think you literally just like, you guys attack some gym together.

Yeah. Okay. Sick. And that's like about all I know. Yeah. Okay, hot. So you know, no,

what's that Pokemon Go? My favorite game is Starcraft. Oh, one or two.

Part of the swarmer legacy of the void. But also as a quick aside, when are we doing the RTS?

One view, one view, one view, one view, one. It's four different RTSs because that's what we need to do.

Yeah, come back to that later. Well, the latest one would be Wings of Liberty. Starcraft 2.

Yes, probably the last time I played. Wait, wait, wait, no, no, it's legacy of the void, isn't it?

I thought Wings of Liberty was like when Starcraft 2 first came out. Yeah, that's what I mean.

So Wings of Liberty is. I didn't even make it to legacy of the void. He's saying latest one he played.

Oh, yeah. Part of the swarm. So good. Does that like the one right after that?

I don't even remember. Don't even know. Trash, what do you play?

Yeah, what do you play? So I'm a zerg player and high masters. Top 25 masters.

Almost a grand masters room. Okay, trash. Magan Lyleck. So when Twitch was like Justin.tv,

that was when I was playing like Charlie. Oh my god.

You were actually masters in 2000. It's like 2000. Well, something like that.

Those are the hard days. Those are the hard days. I was hardcore. I had land parties in my house.

Probably also hard because like the only people still playing. Incredible pros.

They've been playing for 20 years. Yes. They memorized everything.

They used to go like local tournaments, get beat by 10 year olds, get really mad.

All right. So that's what I started to just see. That's like when I stopped playing. I was like, I can't

play. I've just lost to this kid with no job. Of course you won. Of course you won.

What was your build? What was your like your go to?

Oh, it depends. So I mean, when you want even to get to the big leagues, you got to scout.

You got to see what they're doing. Wow. I'm saying. Yeah, yeah, yeah.

And then you do whatever you just counter whatever their plan is.

Well, okay. So you've only countered? You never aggressive your own side.

I mean, there's like a standard. There's like a standard like default thing.

Or I don't remember like the formula, but it's like at like nine, you overlord.

That's well, yeah, spawning pool. And then it's like kind of like cookie cutter for the first 10

minutes. And then you just kind of depend on scouting. So it's like how you would usually open up.

Yeah, man, it's what's your favorite unit trash? My unit, the roach. Okay.

So it's called a roach. And then you can like, you can burrow them. And then when you burrow them,

they heal. So then you can do this thing where like, do you have to be on your like on the goop

to heal? Or does it heal anywhere you know? No, as long as you as long as you're on like the

the creep thing they call a creep. Yeah, that's what I meant. Yeah. So if you're on the creep,

you move faster and you heal faster, I believe. Okay. So like you have to use your queens and spread

the creep. Yeah. I was like, I've always been into like, like even with movies, like war movies.

I like the strategy between like about warfare and you know what I'm saying? So like in my mind,

I'm like actually in this battle. And I'm like, you know, I need to like flank from over here.

Have a distraction over here and it like really just consuming me. And man, I just I just try to

take it as far like I'm like really obsessive. Once I get into something, I try to be a Pokemon.

We've seen you're in the right group. Okay. It's like, it's like, it's like, I just like,

it's like, my life becomes that. Like the Pokemon like episode on the right now is very much like,

can I get you going episode? I also calling it a Pokemon episode is sick. The other way you can

just start calling it an arc. And to be honest, this is also why I start using them. So, oh yeah,

it's the ultimate RTS editor. Exactly. So it's starcraft for programming. Yeah, exactly. It's

exactly. I feel so when I first started using them before, like I even got on Twitch and figured

out there's like cults and stuff. Yeah, big following is also like, oh my goodness. No cult.

It's not a cult. When I'm coding, I'm just like, oh man, I feel like I'm playing Starcraft.

And it was just like so exhilarating. I'm just like, even I'm just like mindlessly doing stuff.

Like I don't know what your top APS. APM. Yeah. Oh, you measure an amp. We slow.

We slow. In the actual like Starcraft game, like a couple hundred. Like as a Zerg player,

that's like normal because you're just mindfully spamming. Yeah, yeah, yeah. But if you're like

Protoss or Terran, it's a lot lower because those are. Oh, that's hard to play. Terran is so hard.

Like as a Zerg player, Terran's like the worst person to play against. So I was like, I'm going to

start become a Terran player. But man, you have to like your brain, you have to split your brain

into like five different. Yeah, Terran status. At the Terran is the only race I can't play.

Like, you know, it's insane. Like there's definitely like a cap of what your brain can just handle at

one time. And then if you can't get past that like limit, then you won't progress in Starcraft.

Because you have to be able to do like six things at a one time. So I think we might have a

little Starcraft tournament. We have to have one stipulation. Okay. We have to only play it on N64.

Like you know, it's out on N64. So you have to play with an N64 controller. Can you imagine?

Are you sure you're not confusing it with a command conquer? I am 1000% not confusing with command

There's no way it's on. I know that's all. I know that's all. I know that's just

good for you. I get back. I literally do it. I literally do a quick back. I also play command

and conquer hard. So in college, we didn't have a you couldn't be couldn't actually like it was

we were stuck on an internet basically. Yeah. So my whole like engineering floor, we just played

CNC. Oh, I am right. Starcraft 64 is a 2010 to 64 port at the popular PC strategy game.

Yes. So imagine Starcraft. We're you're that sounds terrible. No, it's just easy. So instead of

like having a bunch of keyboard shortcuts, you just slowly go. But you know what I mean?

Goodness, that's terrible. You're afraid now. Yeah, you're afraid. I'm gonna take damn.

First off, we play Starcraft. This is Starcraft 2 household.

There's you know, I kind of feel like somebody who maybe like, you know,

like you, if you're if you're around a friend who's been sober for a long time,

like it's best not to drink. Oh, it's a good one. I'm just letting you know, like right now,

I'm feeling something inside of it because I love Starcraft. Like that was my jam for a good

decade. When I tweeted it, I sat there and I had my gaming PC in my closet and I was like,

let's just set this up, but I have no room. Maybe I should buy another desk. Maybe I should have a

dedicated game. It's not easy. It's dangerous. But then there was like a but I have one spot in my

office and I'm running out of room for my Pokemon card. So I was like, man, I got to pick

the Pokemon card. You need to do room for your Pokemon cards. Okay. That's a good point. I'm

actually at a room. I'm like, actually hit my limits. I have to buy some shelves. I got

it. But seriously, maybe a shipping container. Put it in a little spot. I want to see it all the time.

All the time. Oh, roll shipping. Yeah. You need a comic control. Sure.

Have you played some of the newer Starcraft 2? Because it doesn't sound like you have.

But do you know about lurkers? Yeah. Yeah. So I got into it. I mean, I took it pretty far. I

think I played a little bit at legacy of the boy, but I'm talking about when I was like,

climbing the ladder. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. I'm trying to be pro. Like I try to legit be pro.

So like, I don't know if you know this. I played Counter Strike professionally for about two years

before that. Really? What? What? Yeah. I played the 2000. I hear that correctly. What is going on?

Yeah. 2000. Trash. Are you saying we can we find clips of you playing professionally?

There's like maybe one clip on YouTube. Okay. That you can watch. I'll show you after this.

Yeah. Pretty good at FPS's. I was really good. I know, but are you still?

On my own teammates, if you see this, don't talk trash about me. Okay. Yeah. Good point.

Your name is trash. You can talk about trash. Can you still play? Like, can we hop on Apex Legends

and go? Well, that's a completely different game. Yeah, but it's still at least. No, I'm so

washed. Allerant. Geez. Come on. Okay. I'm so regretters. Yeah. It's to the point where like,

I expect myself to be as good as when I was like in college. So when I play for like 30 seconds,

and I suck, I suck. I just get so mad because I'm so competitive and we're slower now.

Slower. Hundreds of milliseconds. Yeah. So yeah. So yeah. So it's embarrassing. I got

dial-up speeds now going out of my head. Yeah. So I was on a team based out of Maryland,

and we used to just do East Coastlands, and then we would travel to Texas and do international

tournaments. Trash, that's so cool. That is a no joke. Dude, I played like 14 hours a day.

It was so bad. During, when? Yeah, when in college? So like, in the summer time,

2005, 2005, 2006, dude. So when I was doing my music thing, I had a laptop, and when we were,

what's the music thing? You can't talk about that. Exactly. But when I was on tour,

I would bring my gaming laptop with me, and it will just be like in some brinky Dean

hotel, and hopefully they had Wi-Fi, and then I would just practice on bots, shooting,

practicing my headshots, and they're like, what are you doing? I was like practicing.

And then when I came back from like tour, I would join like my clan, and then start playing again.

Maybe like I've been shooting nothing but heads. Yeah, dude. And I've been doing it only

with you. You have to, you have to be dedicated to the craft. Like I said, I'm just, I'm just,

I obsess over things, and it's just like, it's good and bad. It's good and bad. So we just found out

like five games. That's a lot of Lord Drops. Yeah, it was good. I love that. So right now,

though, it's Pokemon Go. I would say that you're Pokemon Go. Yeah. Dude, we're talking about like

the most intense first person shooter of all time. One of the highest APM games of all time,

the most intense strategy. Yeah, I just keep Pokemon Go. Yeah. I walk around and I go like this.

I'm actually scared. I'm actually scared to set up my gaming computer because I will just start

playing too much. So I actually had a problem where I gave up games, and I was like, okay, I'm playing

games too much. I'm going to stop playing games, and I'm just going to code instead of gaming.

Yeah, that's right. That's right. And that's how I like haven't done it. And that sounds familiar.

Yeah. Says the three other people. And then I like progressed pretty good and coding.

Right. Cool. But now I think I want to play some games. Yep.

But man, I'm worried about it. Like, that's why I haven't kicked on the old, the old things is

because it was it's dangerous. Yeah. So I'm saying. No, I mean, because I did do a little,

a little bit of a dabble in Fortnite for a while. Oh, I went through a Fortnite thing.

Yeah, I went on like a quick 400 hours and just like a couple of months, I was like, I gotta,

I gotta get it. I was like, pretty good at building. When you were able to build, I was like,

you like, you see one blood of me and I built a mansion. Yes, I'm like, a hotel with Wi-Fi is what

I was, I was ready. Dude, I tried to be a Fortnite streamer for a second. And then so I would have

like the typical like, whatever my name is on this 40 TV. And then they would, I would kill someone

and they'd go into my stream and just make fun of me. And I'm like, this is, this is sad.

Wait, you had the, what is it? So you have to like, do you have like your Twitch,

you know, your Twitch name on this for a TV. Yeah. So when I like, body somebody,

they're just like, they come in, you're wet. Well, you're lame. I'm like, you're all right.

Maybe this game's just too toxic for me. Maybe I shouldn't do this anymore. Yeah, Fortnite's so toxic.

It's too toxic. He just can go back to CS. Yeah, that's okay. Dude, I played League for a while too,

and that was, is there anything that I've ever played? I'm like, I don't know how to play with masters.

Also, no, I actually sucked really bad at League. It was actually, could we do a thing to see

aggregate pass bronze? Can we get out of bronze? I could not get out of bronze. I was like,

a diamond player. I was like, I'm so good. Yeah, it's my team that's holding me back.

Dude, it's 100% my team. It's only hell is real when it comes to that. I try to get my friend

to climb me out. I was like, take my password. Just give me to like silver or something.

Wait, Prime's playing League? No, I've never played League. Okay, okay. I was like, I was like,

even you know, I've never, I've definitely met a lot of people who've decided to have a horrible time.

Yeah, I know. I have lots of friends who are like, hopelessly addicted. Like, it's not funny.

They don't talk about it in a happy way. They're like, I have an addiction. I hate it.

I play it every day. I hate it. I'm like, what are you talking? Why did you play it? I'm addicted.

I'm like, to what? If you keep saying you hate it, I don't fully get the league relationship.

The funny thing is like, so the people that I played like Counter Strike with,

there's like a core group of guys, they think they can be good at. They took Counter Strike

way further than I did. Yeah. But they stay as a group and they're like, what game can we play and

potentially go pro as a group again? So like Overwatch and all that stuff. So they'll just always

try to find all these games that are like five player or whatever. And like, how can we go pro?

So that's kind of like how I find out all these other games and try them out. Yeah. But like, when you

have that like competitive mentality, you just want to be the best in every single way. Yep.

You just want to like, you just want to make them cry. It's cold. You just want them to sit.

They're completely a little bit maxor. I've seen this guy before. Yeah. It's not,

nothing better than a noob stomping Northland. I will say smurfing does like I did.

I did element a few times in Halo, but it does feel good when you're just like, all right,

I'm going to start up a new account doing someone bodies me on my back as smurfing.

That guy's 100 cents smurfing. Who is he? Yeah. It feels because you're in wrong. So

they just made a new account and just crushes me. It feels good. It feels good.

I used to like to set up in perfect dark, you know, 100 bots on the, you know, I meet perfect dark.

The first stop you can only have at max eight bots on the Nintendo 64 perfect dark. And I

preferred Judge Sim. Did you ever play 007? Oh my god. You can have a way more than a

okay. Perfect dark. Vegan. Did you play 007 with the golden gun? I mean, I did, but I was

perfect dark person because 007 compared to it. So it's like perfect dark. It's the same. So lame.

What are you talking? It's literally one million times better. In the original perfect dark,

the maximum stimulant count in the comment simulator is eight, allowing up to four human players

and eight bots, 12 in total. As I said, because I played perfect dark easily. Stop. Let me see

what you're searching. How did you get that answer? Oh, guys, he's using the AI overview for that.

Oh, yeah, the AI overviews real. Who are you going to believe? Would you like me to go to game

frequently asked questions? Gamepacks.com. Oh, well, let's go. Actually, that's one of my. That's

actually speaking of old video games. I still live on that site. Dang. I actually used to go to

cheat code central. That was more of my site. Okay. Game shark. Did you ever get into any of the

game sharks cheating? No, no, no. Game shark would require buying a device in as a child. So exciting

though. Sadly, I had the my, my I grew up with what do you call them abuse appearance. And so they

wouldn't let us have any games that weren't educational. And so is that what you classify as abuse?

Oh, his parents would celebrate his birthday either. I don't know. I got those. I didn't.

I don't know when I thought you guys are joking. Oh, my God. Yeah. So, yeah, no birthdays. And then

no, I wasn't getting video games. Well, I had to buy I had to buy everything myself. So for the

super SNES, I was able to successfully over the lifetime of our system. We were able to acquire

three games. I took. Oh, there's six games. Games are actually more expensive back then than they

are today. There's $60 each. Yeah. So Donkey on Country one. Nice. Which I over and over.

No, it's amazing. Still a good game. This is so bad. And I thought it was the other Kirby

game. I saw a friend playing a Kirby game. It looks so fun. I saved up for ever. And then bought

it at Sears. And then I didn't even get the right one. I bought the the the bean Kirby. What?

The Kirby, like, it's Tetris. Oh, I got it. And there's like a dreamland. No, not dreamland. It was

a camera. What it's called. And guess what? I still play it all the time. Right now we've got someone

in the game that I'm good at. And so I'm like, this is all I have. Is it like a Dr. Mario type?

Yes, Dr. Martin. It's exactly Dr. Mario. And then the last one, which my dad did help with Ken

Griffey Jr. baseball. He's like, okay, I'm going to play. I play Ken Griffey Jr. Actually, that's not good.

So that was all I was able to acquire for these SNES for the lifetime of me having it. No extra

games. So I only have played three games, but I'm very good at them. And then once I got to that

matches your personality better. Anyways, though. Well, no, what do you mean by that? I mean,

Beacon plays exactly the same thing over and over and over. It's how I became a speed runner.

Because I just played Donkey Kong Country over and over and over. It beat it faster, beat it faster,

beat it faster. And then I once I learned what speed running was, I'm like, that thing I do. It

was literally like, how fast can you beat? Well, I mean, like, what's the record on Donkey Kong?

Oh, it's so fast. It's so fast. I got I used to know the actual stats.

Because they're like bugs to where you can skip levels like Mario. Yeah, there's that. No, it's not

quite as crazy in Donkey Kong. But yeah, there are crazy skips. And there's actually a guy

void that I watch on Twitch pretty often, like working on that record. And then I play that game

and then Donkey Country 2, which I did not own as a child. I thought I bought as an adult and I

play a lot. He ranked on his life and bought it. DK2 has like the little one, the little dude.

His name is, first of all, Diddy is in both. Diddy, but Dixie is in, is in, uh, Diddy was in

those games. Yeah, you know, they've been trying to, no, he's actually one of the saddest

in my heart. Did he have an island? I love you know, but the Donkey Kong Country universe,

Donkey Kong universe, they've been trying to erase Diddy from it. I think because

No, they keep Johnson mentioning Diddy. They're like Diddy parties. Exactly. They're a

It's just everything sounds bad with Diddy in the name. I could really

forget. Did he come? Did you, were you the one that showed me the Joel Javier or whatever

they said cartoon of the Donkey Kong one? Yeah, Donkey Kong 64. Yeah. No, the actual games I had

growing up that you'll, games that my parents bought me is I played in Carter 95. You ever play that?

Someone out there had in Carter 95. It's not a game. It's an encyclopedia. It's your

computer and it's got a couple games. So I had the encyclopedia games. It was like my compact

Rosario. Yeah, yeah, and I used to go hard on those. Oh, that's all. Yeah, I was going. No,

I was going. Yeah, when you said I was like, that's educational. No, no, that's my parents only

would buy education. So I had that. I played this is bad. The other is like one math plaster.

I'll have you know, but math plaster, there's like 30 of them for math. I had all my math

plaster, gap, gillus, two or whatever. The plot progresses in the math plaster universe too. So

during the same universe across the different games 100% 100%. And it's you've been in an island

full of monkeys and then in the monkey law. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah,

yeah, Carter is a diddy island. Yeah, no, there was a hole. Yeah, yeah, but a lot of

educational games. And then I remember finally, you're getting old enough to go over to

friends house and be like, cool, what kind of games you got? You guys got in Carter?

You guys got like, we're playing Super Mario World. I was like, oh my god, this is actually fun.

And I'm like, oh, I was like, where are the quiz questions? It doesn't make any sense.

The games I play are all you watch a little video. And then they ask you,

hey, what was number seven's job? And also that's what I'm very, very bad at games. And I would

go over to friends houses and I'm like, so bad. So sheltered. I can't participate. And then once

like people got into like the first person shooters in Halo, they're like, vegan, you can't play,

like you can't be on our team for Halo. Like it was like, okay, prime is so good. Vegan can be

with prime. That's how it always makes it even to nerf them. And it was like, and yeah, so yeah,

I always had the problem of I play Halo, especially Halo three with because I played with the

internet. And so then I was like, oh, like, let's do a LAN party. It lasted like 30 minutes than

everyone would go, let's do something else. It's like not fun anymore. I mean, like one on four,

and I'm like, all right, everybody just got to that scenario. All right, go. I teach trash along.

I'll go. I'll do a little bit of like a deeper dive into the past. The game that I played

probably the most ever was Dota 2. Also, I didn't realize that it was too hard for me.

Too hard. Yeah, that makes sense. League player. Yeah. Yeah. Wait, Hawn, would you say deep

past? Are you talking about Warcraft 3 Dota? Or like, okay, when did you start on Dota?

That's why I started to play Dota 2. You know what I used to do? Yeah, I would like since like,

I would try to play and I would keep overriding the career or something. Oh, yeah, yeah. Now

everyone has an own career trash. So you wouldn't even be the best thing to do. Do like, stop

boiler learning. I'm sorry. Yeah, yeah. Begin to know you're still waiting to read the patch notes.

But I need that version because I was awful. Yeah. Yeah. That was probably the game that I played

like the most of. I played that through college and like, they were, they always had good price

balls. Did you watch like the competitions? Oh, yeah. That was fun. That was like, I would,

I would watch the competitions, but I couldn't play it. Yeah, yeah. That was actually what was

funny was I just first saw a video from Prime, which is what eventually got me

into streaming and stuff on Twitch doing programming things. But I was only aware of Twitch as a

means to watch professional Dota 2. Oh, really? Yeah, like I was like, the site where they have

the international guys on here doing programming. That sounds insane. Check it out. They have

programming on the hot tub streamers. That's how we stumbled. Question, I know nothing about Dota

other than I played it for Warcraft 3. So that's like, my knowledge is so dated. Yeah.

Which I even know what Dota stands for. Not a lot of people. The fans of the engine. Yeah, I know.

It's a good time to even know that's Warcraft 3, baby. But do people also hate their lives?

Like, they do with League. Because League of Dota are very similar. I think it's a, so I had fun

playing Dota. Okay. But I think it's probably, I don't know if you think this trash, I think League

players hate their lives more often than 100%. Yeah. Okay. What makes League hateable? What makes

League hateable? I think it's the community. It's the community. Yeah. Yeah. Like I said,

players in the comments, you can just probably agree. Yeah. It's my team. You're the problem.

Yeah. Yeah. Well, it's because everyone thinks that, I mean, everyone thinks they're good.

Everyone thinks they're good. Yeah. I don't really know why it is. Oh, it's Twitter. I think

the other thing for it too for League's human is there's like stuff you can do to unlock characters

and like get new new or here. What do they call it? They call them characters or heroes and

League. What do they call the people? I don't even know. I erase that game from a memory.

Sadness. Legends. I think they're legends. Are they? I don't know. I mean, it is League. League of

Love in fact. Legends. Dang. Okay. Well, the people that you can play as you like unlock them.

And so I think that makes people feel like sunk cost fallacy for it, maybe. So they get stuck

hating that they spent all this time or money to unlock characters. Whereas for Dota, it's always

like all the characters are always free. Gotcha. So then maybe there's something. You just like

buy skins or something. Is that how? Yeah, skins is the only thing that I bought so many skins.

Quick question. Did you watch League of Legends? The cartoon. I watched the first season.

Oh, yeah. Oh, you're talking about like the Netflix one. Yeah. What's it called again?

League of Legends. Oh, my goodness. That's how we worked there, bro.

Arcane. You're talking about Arcane. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Arcane. Good say. That was close.

Stutthidal League of Legends. Oh, is it? I've never watched it because I hate that game.

So okay, don't and don't really. I heard it was good. When was the last time you played Dota though?

So like how long ago was this addiction? How long have you been clean?

I'm trying to think I don't think I've played since I had kids probably so at least five years.

It's probably for the best. Yeah, it was. Well, it was like I really like I had fun. You choose one.

I played I played the game and I had fun. Okay, thanks. Thanks.

Don't mind me. We're not. It's okay. Like it didn't matter whether I want to lost like I had fun

playing the game and I enjoyed even like trying to grind Rankins Ranked and stuff. So it was like

I would have just played all the time if I had the option. So it was like, okay, that

probably I have to just be like done with that. So then I stopped playing for like a decent amount of

time. I think around when I was done with college and then I just played like some fun games with

my friends occasionally after that. That was a good time. And I just was like I won't play Ranked

because then I'll want to play like a lot. And Dota has a moat. I don't know if League has one

similar called turbo where it's like basically the game you get like more money and more experience

more quickly. So you can play the game in closer to like 15 to 2X. Yeah, like the game speed itself

is still the same, right? Like you know, you want to cast a stun. It's not like it flies twice as

fast or something like that. But then that was what I would always play with my friends because we

would play like a game in 15 to 30 minutes. It was like, oh, that's chill. Like it's a lot more fun

than like occasionally getting stuff for like an hour. Yeah. So yeah, hour. Yeah, for one game.

Yeah. Halo. That's the worst. Yeah. That's the part where it's all even like

grabbed. It's also like made it so fun. I feel like it's because it's like when it's competitive.

Yeah. Yeah. And you know, you know, when you lose after all that time, you're like, what am I doing?

People hate their life is because you have to spend an hour to lose 25 elo. Yeah. That's what you

see. The red minus 25. That does not. It's also it's also worse when you know you're going to lose

in the first five minutes, but you have to wait like 20 minutes to surrender. And you're just like,

I don't even know. No, it starts griefing and feeding. Actually, I think the other thing.

League still has surrender, right? I don't think you can surrender to like 20 minutes. Yeah,

but okay, but you can concede. I'm saying in Dota, you can't concede. I think that's another

thing that makes Dota less toxic is because soon as something goes wrong and league, concede,

bros, bros, bros, concede. Yeah. And then everyone's angry. Everyone's disagreeing. So you just

stay in the game and then if you leave, you can't do that. And if someone like just like

griefs or does other stuff, they'll get like bad stuff happened to their account or like you try

and throw the game intentionally. People can report you and stuff. So then a lot of times,

like I had plenty of games playing Dota where minutes one through 20, you were like, we lost.

Yeah. No matter what. And then, you know, you're just playing with other bad people.

Right. So they do something stupid. They like trying dive into your base and kill you and stuff.

They give you, you end up getting like 5,000 gold. Your team and then you start carrying your team.

Your team picked no support characters only only on the attack guy. Me. I'm a tech guy. I know we

had four attack guys. I pick attack. But if they go and die and then give you a bunch of money and

now it's minute 25, you're like, Oh, now we have five insane late game characters. We'll win.

So like that happened plenty of times like playing Dota, which I think that might be that was one of

the other things that I always thought made a big difference in like the psychology of the game.

Because you have a button you can press to say, let's be done. As opposed to the only way we lose

is when they beat like they destroy the end. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I'm trying to think the last game

I played a lot of hours was Breath of the Wild. Oh, nice. I'm just about to beat tears of the kingdom.

Oh, you're right. Really? I stopped. I was loving it. And then I stopped, but I'd be Breath of the Wild

I was in a completely different sometimes. Oh, wow. When I played Breath of the Wild, I think that was

actually pre-kids because it was so long ago. And I was like, I'm gonna do the same thing.

And I was like, already on kid too. Yeah. Played for like five minutes. I was like, I'm going to sleep.

I was like, I was like, I can't even. So it's just sitting on my switch. I just don't have

entered tears. The kingdom is kind of sad in the sense that you get you you go through and you're

beating everything. You get through like the four. It's like the same game again. Yeah.

After your four things, the story's really monotonous. And then you go and fight Ganon. And then you

fight like his like little buddies, Ganador's buddies. And then the story's just like, oh, well,

you got to figure out where the fifth guy is. And then there's just no information. You're just like,

I don't know. So I'm just like wandering around the gloom right now down in the like,

there's no information. Apparently there's like 15 story parts yet to go figure out by talking

to random too much. It's like a game to wander in the eye. I know, but I'm too old for that

shit. Yeah. The one thing I didn't like about the game was you can like fly on this little metal

thing. You can like attach. Yeah, that's fun. I couldn't figure out how to fly. So I would just

fall off like I'd put on the edge. And I would just go, you have to get enough speed.

Get the balance. Yeah, you have to like slide down something, right? But I would be on,

I would be like on an island with no ramps. You know, you know, you know, you can get a little

like handle that you put on it. There's a handle you get handles. You put it on it. And then you

really, I didn't know that. What about something maybe fans? Yeah, I had the fans. I would put

it. I would really be on the edge. Have the fans on. What about the two engines? Yeah. Yeah.

That's what made me stop playing, to be honest. Literally that mechanic.

Well, it is a totally like typical Zelda games. Oh, great story. We're finding this one. It's

like cool engineering mostly. Just sit here and just you can make it just a totally

different world in game. Let me play. I will say the game that I've been playing the most

recently is slay. That's like, if I'm going to I'll play like part of the other thing I like

for slay is like, if I have 10 minutes, I can play one. And then I just pause and pick it up

the next day. Is that mean you guys like hardstone then? Because hardstone is like a work crowd.

Never played hardstone, but I think I would have probably liked it. Yeah. Because you guys

like that universe, apparently. I never played anymore. I never played that before.

I've never been a fan of deck builder games in general. We were all Bellatro boys.

Right. I love. Still I am Bellatro boy. Yeah. Do you never do any Bellatro at all trash?

I never did any deck building games in general. Oh my god. Just do Bellatro. I don't get it. I

don't get it. That's because you've never had a good deck. Every time I watch you all play, I don't

get it. No, no. Once you build one good deck and it starts popping off, you'll go, I get it.

And then you'll be chasing that feeling until you have a totally new deck. And then you have two

feelings you're chasing. Then you're able to third deck. Now you're chasing three feelings. It is

you've never. It's fun. It could be really, really fun. Really satisfying.

To get like an all natural e plus all natural. They'll see it. It's so frustrating.

Oh my god. My Bellatro ran out. He's a Pokemon collector. Uh oh dry. Who is like, I don't like

card games. It's like, what are you talking about? I don't like deck builders. The one

runing guy. Bobby. Okay. Pokemon cars. He just wants to see. He just wants to scalp us.

All right. So games that we're excited for. For me, the two big ones that I'm really excited for

is actually trying to build something that's engineering into either Minecraft or Terraria.

I think that's just going to be fun. Yes. I actually think there's something really a really

fun idea of like, can you actually make a web server? And like Cloudflare tunnel it out and

actually like, okay, this thing's serving real traffic. Yeah. This is a fully real game.

The other one that I want to try, but I don't think we can get enough people or there exists such

a thing. But it's similar to the idea I had a while ago. It would be fun to try and do one iteration

of like chat GPT by hand, like do the matrix multiplication. It would be hilarious to get like

50,000 people on a Minecraft server. And then you do, you try and like have them flip the levers

of a neuron. And they're like doing LL. Okay, we can do it. Well, you know, like the Minsk

handwriting. We can do it. We can do like a simple MLP. Yeah, yeah. That was just like, hey,

this is just like a four layer MLP or we can do an RBF, which is a single layer. Yeah,

it actually like really good. And they have to hand calculate out the radio basis function.

Yeah, I do what you guys just said right now, but I'm not in my head.

It sounds cool. Sounds cool. The best part about video games is implementing LLMs inside of them.

But the hard part about that is that the neurons fire with floating values,

whereas you have just like a week ago, you can make, we can, yeah, there's a way of making floats.

Yeah, I guess you could just have like five switches and it really represents like

two to the negative one, two to the negative two, two to the negative three switches.

And then each everyone's got a you and eight. Yeah, but then it, but it's all a point, right?

It's all less than one. Yeah, right. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, there's two to the negative one,

two to the negative eight. Okay, that's beautiful. Okay, you also have to be excited about

it's a little like the biggest moment in a long time. No, that's, I actually would rather do that.

I think that would be a very great thing to start with. Handwritten handwritten recognition.

Okay, so as long as we can build that before slay this fire two comes out,

we're good to go. That's what we need. We just have to start it now before slay two comes out

because honestly, I think all of us are going to transition. No more programming content anymore.

Yeah, that's right. That's great. What is that? Is that actually coming out?

I think it's coming out this year. I don't remember why. I'm actually very worried that it's

springtime, which is very, very soon. I'm very worried it's springtime. I love being worried

that it's coming out. And then the worst part is then GTA six. And I mean, we're going to have

the role play very hard. Anyway, GTA six, I thought they delayed till 2027 at least. I think

you're right. They did delay it again. Okay, there's a non-zero chance that

GTA six will be delayed enough years that we will have an AI powerful enough just to make GTA six.

Exactly. That's going to happen. Honestly, that's what they're doing. They probably don't actually

have anyone working for the company. The analogy didn't they? Right. Someone deleted the backups

and the get repo and everything. And they're like, okay, well, here's our chance. We can either tell

everyone we lost the game or this running in a Ralph. We wait for Opus 37.5 and Code X 19. And we say

make me GTA six. No mistakes. Oh, mistakes. Did you guys actually play the GTAs?

I played like the early. I didn't play any beacon. They're saying that early access

could very well be in March 2026. Yeah, I was worried that there was a spring watch. See,

it's not even spring. That's the worst part. It's that soon, bro. That's like, that's like, we've

got to make a lot of videos. We have a pro. We got to do that for six months, bro. Yeah, it's going

to be an issue. Yeah. Okay. Well, that's the one I'm excited for. So I decided to, I thought

the lot was supposed to get some updates this year too. There was a, there's just a ma, again,

yet another patch update. It was going to be, I believe in the winter. And he says, hey,

it's going to take a bit longer. No, that would be fun. I would be excited to see some new

blotter. Yeah, I know that will be awesome. Yeah, I'm down for that. Yeah. There's a new

doubt of two here, but I'm not going to test them out. He's a frog. Okay. I hate frogs. Yeah.

There are a couple of there are a couple of other goofy games I've seen just like being on

like my Twitter. I see that I've put up my list. Oh, dude. J blows game. I want to play J.

That's coming out of the sinking star. Yes. I think we should all play it. That's a cool game. No,

we're, it's a, it's a puzzle game. So we're going to find out who's actually the smartest one.

We're going to be doing speedrunning against each other. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. Right. Yes.

So the other one I saw, I saw it on Twitter and I'm going to find it, but it was a mind sweeper

rogue like it. I love you. No, but I'm really good at mind. All right. I could never beat that game.

Well, don't you? I could never beat that game. Well, once you learn the rules, it's like,

you know, pattern recognition. You get faster and faster. And soon you don't even, it tells you

that I didn't have the patience to like figure out. I'm just like, what?

I don't know. It's a guessing game of some sort. I was really guessing.

It was low over here. I was guessing. Like I would click until like you hit one

where like reveals like most of it. And then it gets kind of hard after that.

I don't know. Once it reveals, that's where it gets easy. That gives you the information on what

you press. It will tell you what they have the patience. Okay. Okay. This is mind sweeper

rogue like I could beat the small thing you'll link later. What about you? Anything

exciting coming out this year for you? Or we'll let you substitute out from a game into a Pokemon

event. Any Pokemon past any Pokemon releases? Do they Pokemon releases their full schedule for the

year? No, I know so Pokemon's coming out. There's like two stats coming out like in the next month,

the three months. Okay. So I got to get them on that. Of course, of course.

Yeah. But in terms of games, I'm like one of those, you know, are you like one of those people

that just listen to the same music from like when you're in high school? One thousand percent.

Yeah. That's how I am a game. That's how I am with games. So I'm like, I'll just

play Starcraft again. That will be fun. Starcraft is like the classics when it comes to music.

It's good. Where come in and conquer? You don't know what? I played a lot of red alert.

Dude, me too. Yeah. I played astro coils. The one I played the most in the stage of empires.

Yes, so a part of me too. See, I was a AOE 2. I played AOE 2. I never played AOE 3.

But I like 3. Okay. And I tell you my favorite Age of Empire story. Yeah. Of course. So

me and my roommate's we'd all do big Age of Empire battles. Yeah. And it came down to just

three of us left. Yeah. AOE 2 on 2. And one one group he was new. So he barely had

army. And the other group that was not doing so well. So we're just like, all right, hey,

we're gonna we're gonna destroy the first guy. And we're very excited about this. So he

come and we just completely wipe out the first guy. Yeah. And then as we're doing that,

the other one is just like, oh man, can I like become your ally? Can I do all this? And we're like,

sure. So he becomes our ally. But we're like not his ally. Yeah. So he can't attack us.

And we start killing him. And he just can't attack us. And then all of his units run up to us.

And then peacefully protest as we try. That's funny. It was. Do I love backstabbing

everyone? I kill you. I'm going to stand next to him. Backstabbing people is so funny.

My favorite AOE 2 thing was vegan to love this because he loves that I was a good student

in in school and had different experiences than he did in high school. We got those nerds.

Yeah. So my AP. My AP calculus class. He mentions AP calculus like 10 times a day guys.

Yeah. That's so true vegan. I took when I was a junior with most of the class with seniors.

So there's like three of us. We get a year smart. There's three of us.

You can't help himself. It's important to the story. And I ended up teaching the class.

No, not in that one. I had a good AP Calc teacher. So seniors get out early.

I don't know if they did this at your thing where it's just like they're done with school before

everyone else. I don't take AP Calcs. I don't know. They literally just graduated and were done

with school like a few weeks before everyone else. I don't really know why. It seems we

got to go to school the whole year. I guess you guys were dumber.

So anyways. So it's just our teacher and us three. So I figured out how to get AOE 2 on a US

beast. Just a regular US B stick with no like you didn't have to install or do anything

like just the executable on there. So we would just get the like computers from a computer

act and go bring them into class and we just play AOE 2 for the rest of the year with our

with our teacher. And we put it three of us and the teacher. I'm saying and he would just

be like, yeah, let's put it up on the projector. And for you to basically.

Well, in that class, I'm saying because there was no. He was yelling junior, right?

Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. There was that there was way into other juniors. There was no one else just

for that class. I'm saying, what are you supposed to do? We already took that we already took

AP exam. We did everything else. We just got to play age of vampires too.

Oh, really? How are you doing your two or three weeks? Well, what people were you?

I like playing the Brits because I like spamming longbows.

Dude, I was about to say, you're going to be a long boy boy. Oh, yeah.

Long, long, long. Hey, you know what? Yeah. Yeah, buddy. I don't understand.

I don't understand. That's what the little finger comes from. They draw it with these two.

And they that's why when you watch British people count it like this one, too.

Because this is FU. Oh, interesting. Because the French would cut off the fingers from the

longbow man. Oh, that's where I'm supposed to come from. That's a new lore.

That's a new lore. Well, I just liked longbow guys. I could shoot from far away.

Okay. I hate it. I will say conscription with with longbows and the upgraded. It's pretty good.

That's what I like. So there you go. That's my AOE two story.

But I always found them. I always found the monogamous unit type of just doing gigantic.

Well, you couldn't just spam. I mean, people just build some horses and then you die.

I know, but I that's what I wanted was 200 longbows, 200 only longbows,

walking towards people and every time something showed up on the stream,

they just die. I like what you got so many that you couldn't select.

Like you couldn't actually select them. Oh, yeah. Right. Yeah.

You had to get them in multiple, like control groups. But I love.

I knew big. But when they make fun of me because of that story,

but how it's I guess whatever we get it. We get it. High school is like he walked through

in a class, teacher asked a question, answer it right away. He says, whoa, whoa, whoa.

Why don't you just teach it? He came up there and then it did happen.

That did happen in one class. Yeah. Yeah.

You're actually that's actually a pretty good analogy.

Fortunately for me. That's a pretty good analogy.

A really a marginally. Did you watch Lurtherings?

Yeah. So the two there, um, how could you like,

shocks by the question? Well, I'm saying battle the Helm's Deep like when the elves come

at the end. Okay. Yeah. And then then just shooting on the arrows.

Yeah. It's like I'm like all about arrow warfare. Yes. Okay.

He was. I'm like, we weren't making fun of him calling him.

I'm not. And you just saved him about the air.

I know, but thanks trash, bro. I appreciate it. I don't think you guys understand

like how nerdy I'm about like just like. Oh, and arrows.

It's so cool. Are you a little disappointed that the battle of Helm's Deep

did not feature any of the ends as they did in the book?

Yeah. I mean, it's fine. It's not the biggest deal.

Why make us think it's just thankful for what you got.

Okay. Dude, I've watched the battle of Helm's Deep like 300 times.

Like my favorite. My favorite scene is when the ladder comes down

and they all start spreading away. That's like that was a very cool exam.

And everything frame by frame, just to see like when they get smashed by the rocks,

like how like are they actually going to smash brother?

Yeah. They did. They actually killed real orcs for that.

I know. Well, trash. Are you going to see, you know, it's in theaters again, right?

Lord of the Rings extended edition is in theaters right now.

I haven't been to a movie theater in years.

I know. I actually, if it's still in there next weekend,

like I'm going to try to go with kids. Me too.

Me too. With the kids. With the kids.

I got to find some kids.

That was like what?

All right. Now it's just weird.

All right. Hey, thank you very much for joining us on this very special episode

of the stand up. Uh, hopefully this lightened your loafers.

I don't think that's the right phrase.

I don't even know what that is.

Hopefully this lightened your load.

I don't think it's awesome. How about just how about we,

hopefully we made you laugh.

Lighten your mood. Lighten the mood.

Yeah. Take some time to occasionally relax.

Oh, go ahead, Brian.

DJ, thank you for saying it so eloquently.

And thank you for being a teacher's pet.

I always appreciate that.

He is the only junior here.

He is the junior obviously.

I wasn't a teacher's pet.

I just he was the teacher.

I was friends with him.

I was friends with him.

I wasn't there pet yet.

We were like best friends.

We were like best friends.

Okay.

That's it.

True.

All right.

Thank you very much for watching.

We have vegan.

We have trash.

We have TJ.

And the name is the primogen.

Thank you.

See everybody. Bye.

See you next week.
