00:20:24 ◼ ► You put a lot of work into it. Maybe if you were the first one there would be value. [TS]
00:20:28 ◼ ► But you know when you start multiplying it out it's like if you want. If you want any. [TS]
00:20:35 ◼ ► or reply Marco is never going to spend as much time responding to your as you spent sending it because it's not just a [TS]

00:21:12 ◼ ► I do reply to things like that and so I've been doing this beta test this past week. [TS]
00:21:22 ◼ ► And I'm answering as many of the possibly can of that group as I know that's like a separate group that's like. [TS]
00:21:27 ◼ ► I ask people to beta test. They are taking the time to install a and a relatively untested version on their device. [TS]
00:21:43 ◼ ► My regular rate of responses on that it's I think probably over fifty percent that I'm responding to on the on those [TS]
00:21:52 ◼ ► Because that seems like it should have a higher standard but without what that's like eight hundred people but [TS]
00:22:00 ◼ ► Twenty people or whatever it was and you're responding to all of them because you kind of could twenty to one right [TS]
00:22:06 ◼ ► The value of the first twenty people ever to use the application because Marco their reports are much more valuable [TS]
00:22:12 ◼ ► then the seven hundred person to send a sync bug right it doesn't mean there's no value to that thing but it's never. [TS]
00:22:19 ◼ ► You're never going to get a reply. That makes you. Makes you feel like the effort you spent. [TS]
00:22:29 ◼ ► You don't know whether it's going to be ways that you don't know if you are the very first person to send his bug [TS]
00:22:32 ◼ ► report or the nine hundred. You how can you know that you don't know what other people are sending right. [TS]
00:22:37 ◼ ► So I don't think you can have expectations about the sort of many to one relationship because you don't know what's [TS]
00:22:43 ◼ ► When you send a bug report the work hard on you know get any kind of reply at all which is why Hitler begging for like [TS]

00:22:55 ◼ ► If you gave them that something they would say. I just need something a little bit more like this. [TS]
00:22:59 ◼ ► I automate a reply makes me feel like you don't care about my about my email. Maybe just an personal note. [TS]
00:23:06 ◼ ► I think that relationship is never going to work out where you want a response that. [TS]
00:23:13 ◼ ► and it's like well then find our part bugs like that's a problem Mark about to do with a suddenly no one reports bugs [TS]
00:23:18 ◼ ► anymore. Or he gets only bad bug reports. Then he will actually have to take time to address it but that's. [TS]
00:23:23 ◼ ► You don't know what's happening as such you can't say that Marco has to do that it seems like he's getting enough bug [TS]
00:23:32 ◼ ► but you said something along the lines of You can't have expectations for what Marco did in the relationship between [TS]
00:23:42 ◼ ► and one of the things that one of the more common themes that was angry that I saw of the feedback that all of us got [TS]
00:23:50 ◼ ► was how could you not respond to this it only takes a moment to fire off an email be an automated or whatever and. [TS]
00:23:57 ◼ ► What I don't think people understand and this was the point me bringing up that story about me going to New York. [TS]
00:24:01 ◼ ► And in me not understanding why Marco didn't remember having read that email I sent him. Was. [TS]
00:24:07 ◼ ► I didn't understand the sheer volume of e-mail that someone in Marcus position can get. [TS]
00:24:14 ◼ ► And it wasn't until I got a lot of e-mail. Through the show that I started to understand it in. [TS]

00:24:29 ◼ ► Hundreds of unsolicited e-mails a day that are not outright spam their e-mails that you should probably be reading. [TS]
00:24:35 ◼ ► Then it's hard to pass judgment on what any one of us particularly Marco should do because I find it challenging to [TS]
00:24:45 ◼ ► and that's a drop in the in the bucket compared to what Marco's getting from overcast so I think you're absolutely right [TS]

00:33:44 ◼ ► I think the data service and what they rather than a telecom services like that and basically. [TS]
00:33:51 ◼ ► If it's for telecom services like the phone lines to your house there's much more strict regulations. Over what. [TS]

00:34:16 ◼ ► If you ask people like Should Internet service be regulated. Like phone service. In these ways. [TS]
00:34:23 ◼ ► Most people would say yes that makes sense of course it should be. And it hasn't been yet and the F.C.C. [TS]
00:34:28 ◼ ► Has tried a couple of little things to kind of like have to send a little bit like to say well we want you to have net [TS]
00:34:35 ◼ ► neutrality most of the time but we're not going to go all the way and classify you as this. [TS]
00:34:40 ◼ ► And then they get sued by the I S P's and and they have to roll that back. So generally speaking. The F.C.C. [TS]
00:34:52 ◼ ► Like they the Chairman Tom Wheeler basically came out and said he didn't think they need to read That's. [TS]
00:34:58 ◼ ► A fire at the way phone lines are a few weeks after that President Obama made some statement about it [TS]
00:35:05 ◼ ► and how he was basically opposing the F.C.C. Chairman who. I think a stance of the he appointed. Right now is right. [TS]
00:35:12 ◼ ► Obama basically over. Like politically overrode not legally but he'll he'll be politically said. [TS]
00:35:18 ◼ ► I think differently on this very publicly and then of course the you know the geek population like us. [TS]
00:35:25 ◼ ► Is very strongly against the as he sees previous position like we want to be regulated. The way phone services. [TS]
00:35:33 ◼ ► And I don't know all the details of like you know what parts of title to all of it none of it. But anyway. [TS]
00:35:38 ◼ ► And so so so you had a situation where he actually says F.C.C. Says one thing Obama. [TS]
00:35:44 ◼ ► And then it came up again in the state of the Union address last month where Obama talked about again. [TS]
00:35:49 ◼ ► How he was on the side of net neutrality which was directly contradicting the F.C.C. Use. Most recent statements. [TS]
00:35:58 ◼ ► and says Oh I changed my mind we're going to try to we're going to seek this classification now. [TS]
00:36:03 ◼ ► And this guy like you know he has previous ties to the cable industry and it's a pretty great to what degree that is [TS]
00:36:09 ◼ ► but he does have some previous ties to the cable industry. Well than him lobbyist for the cable industry. Something. [TS]
00:36:22 ◼ ► So you know he comes from the cable industry so having him be the head of the F.C.C. [TS]
00:36:25 ◼ ► Is kind of suspect OK Well while why wouldn't he just fight for the rights of the people who previously employed him [TS]
00:36:33 ◼ ► So anyway that you know that's the whole revolving door thing that's big problem anyway. The problem is. [TS]
00:36:39 ◼ ► He says one thing. You know last year or whenever. All of a sudden president says I disagree. [TS]
00:36:45 ◼ ► A few months later all of the F.C.C. Is now seeking something else. This feels a lot like just posturing. [TS]
00:36:57 ◼ ► or not he said it because it was popular among his base he kind of had to say it. OK. He's now. [TS]
00:37:01 ◼ ► He had to probably put pressure on Tom Wheeler to kind of get in line with with him and his party [TS]
00:37:06 ◼ ► and everything because like it's kind of weird if your appointed as his he chairman is like directly. [TS]
00:37:11 ◼ ► Disagreeing with the president and his policies of. That's kind of weak so it feels like posturing. [TS]
00:37:22 ◼ ► But what's going to happen like nothing's going to change tomorrow. You know what's going to happen is the F.C.C. [TS]
00:37:29 ◼ ► Might pursue this in some way. It's going to be going back and forth for months if not years of like drafting. [TS]
00:37:52 ◼ ► This is this is going to be a long process this is how the legal system works with this kind of stuff. [TS]
00:37:57 ◼ ► It's going to be a very long process. And he can say whatever. Tom Wheeler can say whatever he wants today. [TS]
00:38:04 ◼ ► He can say oh we're going to seek this receipt these rules but over time those are going to be negotiated [TS]
00:38:11 ◼ ► So it's hard to say this really means a lot right now like this might turn into something good down the road. [TS]
00:38:18 ◼ ► But it's going to be a very long time before. In all likelihood before anything really can come of it. [TS]
00:38:25 ◼ ► If anything comes it comes of it at all and will probably happen. Which is what happens most of the time. [TS]
00:38:30 ◼ ► These kind of moves. Is it will probably be watered down or completely thrown out before. Before it ever takes effect. [TS]
00:38:36 ◼ ► And the public will notice we would have moved on to some other stupid P.R. Thing. [TS]
00:38:45 ◼ ► I'm so Senekal about these things because like just even if you don't know any of the details. [TS]
00:39:18 ◼ ► We shouldn't do that and I did that offensively did that same thing with the F.C.C. Chairman although and T.V. [TS]
00:39:27 ◼ ► Says that this is not the case at all and I don't know what we're getting wrong about that [TS]
00:39:31 ◼ ► but like it was interesting person I doesn't mean all people who are in the industry are bad or evil [TS]
00:39:35 ◼ ► or whatever it just means like. It's kind of all things like if there's an appearance of impropriety. [TS]
00:39:39 ◼ ► It's like trying to avoid even the appearance. Rather than. You know going on an individual basis like just you know. [TS]
00:39:51 ◼ ► and you put them in charge of something that has a big influence on the industry say well this president upstanding [TS]
00:39:56 ◼ ► and even if they do go back to work an issue doesn't negative it's like just the appearance of it is not good right. [TS]
00:40:03 ◼ ► And then to see that person say things in that position that make the telecom and you know cable industries happy. [TS]
00:40:11 ◼ ► Like if you are regulating it astri. If you're doing things that make the industry or regulating happy. [TS]
00:40:20 ◼ ► No matter what it is like if you are in charge of regulating the food safety industry if you're in charge of regulating [TS]

00:40:33 ◼ ► or the industries your regulating are happy about what you're doing it is almost certainly the wrong thing to do. [TS]
00:40:38 ◼ ► Unless maybe you're rolling back another regulation that was like went too far or whatever but like. If they're happy. [TS]
00:40:45 ◼ ► You know especially with these giant industries that have near monopolies like telecom. [TS]
00:40:52 ◼ ► If they are happy something is wrong because they are never happy about things that help consumers their own ways happy [TS]
00:41:03 ◼ ► You don't even need to get in it he details unlike theories about the free market over all you have to do is say is [TS]
00:41:12 ◼ ► Then it's almost certainly the wrong thing to do now you have to balance it was a like well you're not going to make [TS]
00:41:17 ◼ ► the miserable but like you know you can't just regulate them to death and strangled industries believe me. [TS]
00:41:24 ◼ ► Like I could now we can't have any telecom companies all telecom companies have closed up shop that is leaving their [TS]
00:41:29 ◼ ► wires hanging in the trees and just no one's going to use them anymore because it's overregulated know the direction. [TS]
00:41:35 ◼ ► Everything has been going to town tree has been decreasing regulation which has good sides and bad sides [TS]
00:41:40 ◼ ► and again you can even talk about the details but just as a general rule of thumb. [TS]

00:41:49 ◼ ► all happen behind closed doors consumers have no idea that happened since I've no idea what the effects are [TS]
00:41:53 ◼ ► but the industry loves it. Stop stop and look and say wait a second. They loved this. [TS]

00:51:52 ◼ ► How much will the go switch end up saving although I think you've talked about that a bit [TS]
00:51:59 ◼ ► Yeah I mean I don't want to go too far to the purpose for going to be boring but. I host at line owed and. [TS]
00:52:20 ◼ ► So I've probably been at ten fifteen hosts over that over that time and through Big [TS]
00:52:37 ◼ ► But line owed like before this past fall they did a major if they meet did a major hardware upgrade where they have [TS]
00:52:46 ◼ ► and they change their plans little bit and and. It is now an incredibly good deal for what. [TS]
00:53:05 ◼ ► and I think they're all on managed I don't know if they offer a manic service at Eve doesn't matter I use I use a mag [TS]
00:53:09 ◼ ► so it doesn't matter to me but. Unmanaged meaning that it's all on you would take care of everything. [TS]
00:53:27 ◼ ► We had manic servers at Rackspace and Rackspace at the time and I don't I mean this was two thousand [TS]
00:53:36 ◼ ► At the time they were really considered like the best of the business for managed servers and. [TS]
00:53:41 ◼ ► I think they only sold miniatures times they were very expensive it was like a hundred bucks a month for a server for [TS]

00:54:33 ◼ ► And maybe that's just because we're a programmer so like we knew we knew had the basics of system a mystery [TS]
00:54:38 ◼ ► and we didn't need them to install Apache for us you know stuff like that like we could figure that out on our own. [TS]
00:54:47 ◼ ► What kind of skill level you need these days if you need more hand-holding from them [TS]
00:54:55 ◼ ► These days you're probably not looking at servers at all you're probably looking at managed cloud services which are [TS]

00:56:14 ◼ ► The reason I do what I do is because I know enough about system ministration that I can remain on servers. [TS]
00:56:20 ◼ ► I know how to do it in a way that. That does not put a lot of burden on me is very low maintenance like. [TS]
00:56:25 ◼ ► I'm not being welcomed in the middle of night to deal with a server problem like that's. [TS]
00:56:30 ◼ ► And it honestly was not hard these days because service so frickin fast these days. And I use. [TS]

00:57:42 ◼ ► It's really better than it used to be it's way easier than it used to be and to way way. Cheaper than it used to be so. [TS]
00:57:48 ◼ ► The reason I do it even though there are always these cloud services that are also available. Now is for that cost. [TS]
00:57:55 ◼ ► Is that like. You know I set my own push out of. Shows. If I have a. If I had a service that sent push notifications. [TS]
00:58:07 ◼ ► So much for me to do it on line i would cost like forty bucks a month worth server time maybe at most probably less [TS]
00:58:17 ◼ ► A day to figure out how to how to send them in code myself like it wasn't that big of a deal like. [TS]
00:58:24 ◼ ► I feel like people shy away from because and these are developers like you're able to make an app which is not easy. [TS]
00:58:32 ◼ ► Like you know it's easy in the in the grand scheme of things that the easier than doing manual labor all day. [TS]
00:58:39 ◼ ► but you know it's in the grand scheme of things if you can figure out how to how to make software of any kind. [TS]
00:58:45 ◼ ► You can administer basic stuff on a server. It Like It's really not that hard it might just be unfamiliar to you. [TS]
00:58:51 ◼ ► But just like any language or platform or new A.P.I. You can learn it. It's not that big of a deal. [TS]
00:59:00 ◼ ► Once you are open to the idea of you know what. Maybe I will let myself. Run a web service. [TS]
00:59:06 ◼ ► The doors it opens for you to me are are usually the vast majority of the time usually worth it for the. [TS]
00:59:19 ◼ ► I have nothing to add to that so that's pretty straightforward now. You would you mind recapping. [TS]
00:59:28 ◼ ► What the GO SEE things were the. When you change the feed crawler to go. Yeah it was like couple hundred bucks a month. [TS]
00:59:41 ◼ ► I gotta look I'm still moving stuff around like with images and everything so one thing I do with overcast. [TS]
00:59:46 ◼ ► Is because every pod cast has the album artwork image that it. That it defines its feet. [TS]
00:59:58 ◼ ► And because I'm dealing with arbitrary podcast Remember Terry people. Many people many pockets producers. [TS]
01:00:05 ◼ ► Don't particularly optimize that file size he might have like this album artwork that's a meg or. [TS]
01:00:13 ◼ ► It's like it's a P N G When it's actually the photo so it compresses very badly or you know something like that [TS]
01:00:22 ◼ ► So sometimes you have these massive files. And in the context of overcast I don't really need those. I need them. [TS]
01:00:29 ◼ ► Only really as the i Pad artwork and every other context. Things like search results. [TS]
01:00:34 ◼ ► Even just adding things you don't need the files with that big and a lot of times. [TS]
01:00:38 ◼ ► Like people who subscribe to a lot of pod cast they might have like hundreds of megabytes of album artwork to download [TS]
01:00:43 ◼ ► that's no good. So what I do as part of my hosting is. I prophesy and serve all album art images in overcast. [TS]
01:00:52 ◼ ► Through my own infrastructure. I resize the images to correct sizes that are actually needed by the app. [TS]
01:01:00 ◼ ► So that's why when you search over cats if you do a search for like add podcast type in a keyword. [TS]
01:01:05 ◼ ► Those from Nel's will load incredibly quickly. Way way facet of I was pulling in like the full size. [TS]
01:01:12 ◼ ► Uncle mostly uncompressed persons from all the different feeds. I'm doing all that just to make things better. [TS]
01:01:19 ◼ ► Another advantage I have by having some kind of infrastructure in place I can do that. [TS]
01:01:24 ◼ ► So right now like I'm in the process of moving stuff around like that is that used to be on my own servers now I'm [TS]
01:01:30 ◼ ► but It's costing me a fortune so I move it to something else I'm probably back on my own server soon. [TS]
01:01:38 ◼ ► But generally speaking the go transition save me a lot of money and my next attempt for the image. [TS]
01:01:47 ◼ ► And using this library called vips which I don't know anything about but apparently it. [TS]
01:01:51 ◼ ► Like destroys everything else in image resizing performance so if anybody knows anything about the VIP library for [TS]
01:01:58 ◼ ► resetting images let me know you're going to try to install image magic. Image magic is just. [TS]
01:02:08 ◼ ► I built most of tumbler stuff against image magic for the second revision when I added the. [TS]
01:02:12 ◼ ► When we added the pay and give support. It's OK image magic is OK modern G.D. Is OK. There are some bindings in P.H.P. [TS]
01:02:21 ◼ ► Some bindings in go you know it's. It's OK but overall I'm eventually just not very fast. [TS]
01:02:27 ◼ ► That's the biggest problem and vips promises to be really really fast I could have seen a few a few benchmarks and. [TS]
01:02:34 ◼ ► So I don't know what the tradeoffs are Maybe it's terrible quality I don't know yet I'm looking into it [TS]
01:02:41 ◼ ► I like forgetting how well they work when you use them. Just getting them installed. Says Oh. [TS]
01:02:50 ◼ ► and it never gotten better over the decades of me having to install those two things like well. [TS]
01:03:01 ◼ ► but we at at Tumblr We have a lot of issues with like image magic would increment the version. In some minor way. [TS]

01:07:19 ◼ ► Having me be able to him put that information in some place where Apple knows it gives me hope. Future applications. [TS]
01:07:26 ◼ ► Future services. Other future things that Apple does maybe even third party things they expose that. [TS]

01:08:26 ◼ ► but the. But the in that purchase doesn't transfer over there so they have a read of you not purchase a lot of the. [TS]
01:08:35 ◼ ► Cause many people including me occasionally to go back to what we were all doing before which is just designating a [TS]
01:08:40 ◼ ► member of the family. As the denigrated. You know App Store Apple ID person. And then everybody assigned in. [TS]
01:08:54 ◼ ► They have made it relatively easy to have different Apple ideas for all the different things you can be signed into [TS]
01:09:03 ◼ ► And I think even to a different Apple idea and Game Center and maybe a different Apple idea my message I don't know [TS]
01:09:08 ◼ ► but there's a whole bunch of different ways to be going and Apple ideas it was all one thing. Nothing would work. [TS]
01:09:12 ◼ ► Because that would just totally have wouldn't allow people to him to work around with a workaround ever [TS]
01:09:18 ◼ ► but I know does is all that's the Apple i do we buy everything on the everybody in the family gets to use it which is [TS]
01:09:22 ◼ ► nice. From the bad old world of like you had to get a a license for each seat and. [TS]
01:09:27 ◼ ► If you had two computers you can only use software on one or whatever. So now you know. And yesteryear. [TS]
01:09:37 ◼ ► and now you spend ninety nine cents in your whole family can use it so maybe are all spoiled by that [TS]
01:09:40 ◼ ► but whatever the policy is. We all have a work around which just use the same apple idea for everything. [TS]
01:09:50 ◼ ► Even if it doesn't work and even it has limitations and even if like ideas matches an integrated with it in everything. [TS]
01:09:57 ◼ ► and I waited so long for them to have any kind of stardom like finally they realize we have families so maybe in [TS]

01:10:25 ◼ ► So they together can each be their own people and have their own i Pads and. You know share purchases and. [TS]
01:10:31 ◼ ► And for both of those cases we didn't do it the way everyone else did it before where we we didn't have like one [TS]
01:10:41 ◼ ► and then we'd have our own accounts like no we were always separate before because if I just don't buy a lot of the [TS]
01:10:49 ◼ ► and to mom just got an i Pad this Christmas so it was after family sharing just. So we could start. [TS]
01:11:01 ◼ ► You know the clean way that Apple thinks everyone knows even though almost no one does except us but using it that way. [TS]
01:11:06 ◼ ► It has worked incredibly well I don't. I don't think we've had a single issue with it it has really been flawless. [TS]
01:11:12 ◼ ► I think the. The. Challenges people are having are migrating between the old way of having one shared account. [TS]
01:11:19 ◼ ► If you were doing that which you write a lot of people do. Migrating from that into this new system. But if you. [TS]
01:11:26 ◼ ► If you kind of come to the system on its own terms and do it the way Apple thinks you should be doing things today. [TS]
01:11:31 ◼ ► Then it works very well then you have separate polls of photos that strew yet the photos are not really a solved thing [TS]
01:11:40 ◼ ► And you know an Adams not old enough to be buying it on things on the App Store but soon he will be [TS]
01:11:46 ◼ ► but that actually works so we have a set up you know he has a little i Phone It's an old i Phone of mine and and. [TS]
01:11:53 ◼ ► and we set him up his own a kid's own child account for the through the new child accounts of some. [TS]
01:12:01 ◼ ► Percentage thirteen or whatever has an actual real age in it and his purchases are charged to my account. But. [TS]
01:12:09 ◼ ► And then me or to have to authorize those purchases before they are made and it. It pops up. [TS]
01:12:13 ◼ ► It works great and on tips mom. We had hers doing what you were saying with the with the cards where as where like. [TS]
01:12:27 ◼ ► and his payment of reasons already his account. And we made them a family account and we added the prepaid card. [TS]

01:12:42 ◼ ► Not like the not the like the first person of the owner whatever the fate of the family. [TS]
01:12:46 ◼ ► And so everyone else will purchase a don't draw from like one person in the family's credit account. [TS]
01:12:56 ◼ ► Now that I read it I said I work spottily is because I've had other people my family set up their family things [TS]
01:13:01 ◼ ► and then just never be able to get the notification you know the thing that has the. [TS]
01:13:05 ◼ ► Do you want to prove this thing and. As with so many other icloud problems once you confirm the set up as correct. [TS]
01:13:10 ◼ ► Yep you've got a family yep it's structured correctly Yep people are signing with their Apple ideas for all the various [TS]
01:13:15 ◼ ► things. All right I make a purchase or try to make a purchase. And now you can say no if occasion on your thing. [TS]
01:13:23 ◼ ► And then you had to then say OK well I guess we all signed out of our bodies will wipe our devices we do this we just [TS]
01:13:28 ◼ ► do the silly dance and just if it doesn't work you're like Wow And so that still happens. [TS]
01:13:34 ◼ ► And it's it annoys me that that happens every time it does happen you just feel like powerless [TS]
01:13:40 ◼ ► and it's like well see they don't work or there's got to be a way for me to debug it and debunking it doesn't mean. [TS]
01:13:48 ◼ ► Sign out sound I can delete all data restarted and just as very frustrating you know. [TS]
01:14:00 ◼ ► and what change were going to time it didn't work and it didn't. I don't know. It's. [TS]
01:14:06 ◼ ► I still find it fresher but I like really the thing I'm most excited about is the fact they have them at a date. [TS]
01:14:13 ◼ ► That it can be useful for something that it will encourage them to because if you think about it like anyone designing [TS]
01:14:25 ◼ ► but I don't want to set up a thing where people have to sign up their family I just want to make him out no one wants [TS]
01:14:30 ◼ ► But someone eventually are falling to get done as a separate thing family sharing a separate thing so now that [TS]
01:14:35 ◼ ► infrastructure is there anybody making an application at least with an apple for now. [TS]
01:14:45 ◼ ► and that's not part of my application really what I was like No way. We've already got that. [TS]
01:14:49 ◼ ► It's already you know that information is there and presumably there's some way for us to get it [TS]
01:14:55 ◼ ► In kind of the same way like I hope and leverage it more like you know a little of the IP things are [TS]
01:14:59 ◼ ► when you're on phone and under not just our block calls from the ips and Mail has be appeasing stuff like that. [TS]

01:28:48 ◼ ► but I sort of know the rough outlines of the features that they may or may not have. [TS]
01:28:53 ◼ ► And the way I like I would look at toasters in the stores and buy them but I look at them. [TS]
01:29:01 ◼ ► The things that make the toaster hot the heating elements. If they don't have anything covering them. [TS]
01:29:08 ◼ ► Because no matter how careful you are with your toaster you always end up getting something in there like drips a [TS]
01:29:14 ◼ ► You know you're not really supposed to put things in there that are drippy but everybody always does eventually. [TS]
01:29:18 ◼ ► You do not want that dripping directly on the element because it burns and. It's just awful. [TS]
01:29:30 ◼ ► and sometimes the guard is openings in it to let stuff get down to the element anyway. [TS]
01:29:34 ◼ ► And sometimes those guards can block the heat from the element if it doesn't have a reflective thing above like there's [TS]
01:29:41 ◼ ► but I know Alex that I see Bear elements on the bottom. I think it's not great line has that. Yeah. [TS]
01:29:47 ◼ ► Well if I see only one little skinny element in a gigantic Telstar I'm thinking that one elements not going to be able [TS]
01:29:53 ◼ ► or it's not going to have even heating so it's a really big toaster I want it to elements top and bottom. [TS]
01:29:58 ◼ ► The plugs nobody seems to care about this and maybe just my old ancient crappy kitchen but. [TS]
01:30:10 ◼ ► and if you have the type of kitchen where the plugs are down the same level as the toaster [TS]
01:30:13 ◼ ► and you only have a little tiny spot where you can put a toaster in the plug is right behind it [TS]
01:30:17 ◼ ► and the toaster has tremendous depth because they're all made to put giant deep dish pieces inside them of the hell [TS]
01:30:32 ◼ ► and be the hot back of the toaster is pressing against the you gonna melt the little rubber coating on the back of [TS]
01:30:37 ◼ ► thing. I think every Tell should come with a low profile plug is fit flush against the wall. [TS]
01:30:45 ◼ ► and have a little stops in the back of the keep you from pressing the hot back of the toaster against the cord [TS]
01:30:49 ◼ ► and melting through an electric utility or in your whole family. So that's an area I think all toasters can get better. [TS]
01:30:56 ◼ ► I bought a low profile plugged engine cord and that it's little thing to make it all work. [TS]
01:31:03 ◼ ► Mine does have the standoff that prevent you from putting it right against the wall. And it only has a two prong plug. [TS]
01:31:11 ◼ ► Yeah they usually have some kind of stand out for safety reasons but like when the plug. [TS]
01:31:18 ◼ ► And I guess maybe people have the plugs there either higher up I don't know what code dictates [TS]
01:31:24 ◼ ► and I have very little space in the plugs are right behind where I need to put both of these does act. [TS]
01:31:29 ◼ ► How hot does a toaster get on the outside some touches get absurdly Holly outside. [TS]
01:31:36 ◼ ► Like I wouldn't put anything out of a toaster because I know it gets hot up there but people do put things up there [TS]
01:31:41 ◼ ► but someone gets so hot like you're basically cooking stuff on the outside toaster here even if you do. [TS]
01:31:46 ◼ ► Like something next to it like within an inch of it and that slowly like bake that over time that's not great. [TS]
01:31:52 ◼ ► This used to be a standard feature that seems to be only on the super high end ones now and I don't understand why. [TS]
01:31:57 ◼ ► So he does forgive metal hook but when you open the door. Little thing that pulls the try out a little bit. [TS]
01:32:03 ◼ ► Everyone should do that why do they not do it is to little metal hooks just do it you know some of them use magnets [TS]
01:32:09 ◼ ► And the final element is that I see all the time is how robust are the things inside it like the little that the wire. [TS]
01:32:24 ◼ ► You know it doesn't need to be so thick that he can't get through it but it shouldn't be easily bent [TS]
01:32:34 ◼ ► or like the heat will work it's what you know it should be it should not feel cheap it should bend easily the tray that [TS]
01:32:40 ◼ ► you put stuff in soon to be like the thinnest possible metal you can get so that it slowly bends and warps [TS]
01:32:45 ◼ ► and dents just. Again it's of the call. You know that has them soon a cheap toaster and a good one. [TS]
01:32:50 ◼ ► Just make things a little bit thicker so that's that's how I'm going to be judging any toaster that comes into my life. [TS]
01:32:58 ◼ ► That's amazing. We talk about cars for a few minutes. We can all right. I drove them for. Wow that's great. [TS]

01:34:11 ◼ ► But from what I've seen in videos and from those who turn in the highway it did seem louder than the usual for em cars. [TS]
01:34:17 ◼ ► Yeah it was surprisingly loud. A little bit of turtle wax which I was surprised by because my car has virtually none. [TS]
01:34:25 ◼ ► And this had a little bit which I guess makes sense if you have a bigger turbo or pushing more boost or whatever [TS]
01:34:35 ◼ ► The interior was bigger than I expected which is probably silly because it's a three series. [TS]
01:34:42 ◼ ► But my point being that it's just you know the same size as your average three series with one must search US stores [TS]
01:34:48 ◼ ► but. It was bigger inside that I expected. The the driving experience though was just amazing. [TS]

01:37:24 ◼ ► Color collection overall the colors available for the M four or the colors available for i Pad cases. [TS]
01:37:35 ◼ ► The M four definitely because things like i Pad cases you can have in kind of fanciful collars [TS]
01:37:41 ◼ ► and it's not a big deal but the carport That's a lot of color like it's a big thing it's a big expensive thing [TS]

01:37:59 ◼ ► and I begged his like well I get you get to i Pad cases in different colors you could swap them like this is an [TS]
01:38:10 ◼ ► and so it's much worse for cars to have that cause lections. Yeah. Like I love the secure orange color. [TS]
01:38:17 ◼ ► It was available on the M five. I chickened out. Because for the same difference like. I would love this color for. [TS]

01:40:02 ◼ ► when your wheels your front wheels are pointed straight ahead. And when that happened. [TS]
01:40:07 ◼ ► When I when I did kind of stand on it. When the wheels were pointed straight ahead. I did not notice any slippage. [TS]
01:40:13 ◼ ► But to be fair. I was giving it. You know a whole bunch of throttle for very little blips at a time. [TS]
01:40:20 ◼ ► Typically not in the lowest possible gear because this car's brand new it's not a break [TS]
01:40:29 ◼ ► I have a feeling that if I were to put myself in a situation where I wanted to move forward with the utmost of urgency [TS]
01:40:37 ◼ ► that yes it would probably slip that being said I did take a sweeping right hand ninety degree turn with some serious [TS]
01:40:50 ◼ ► And I did not notice the traction control cutting in by way of obvious loss of power like it was clear that I was not [TS]
01:41:00 ◼ ► but it wasn't one of those situations where also the car hits a brick wall so to speak. [TS]
