Oh, we got a GM sighting. Hello, comrade. What up? Welcome to No Agenda Stream. I'm sorry. It was that English? No, no. For signals, you would have been told. This is no agenda stream. Mm hmm. We use our own language. I will not check levels because we are professional. Yeah, levels are fine. Give me a script. I mean, you sound like you're half asleep. You scream. Please do. What you got. That's all you're going to get. This is the maximum for today. Uh huh.
It's the full gene experience level down for your enjoyment. We have to eat that. We have to tell your friends. Tell your comrades the sounds of Gene just waking up. Mm hmm. Or not. Well, technically, I woke up, like, 40 minutes ago. I was watching three tubes. Some tubes? He is watching the tubes. It's a weird thing that ran across this YouTube channel. Who's a chick with, like, probably size double DS, which I can see. This is probably why you stopped to investigate further.
I mean, I wanted to see what the teilhard's about, and she's an fans. We got to use the other. You got to use YouTube and everything else to bring people to. Uh huh. Not only fans and. And she's a conservative and she's a virgin in your life. My name is. I am in Texas, but I will come to you. I have the means. But she does these videos. I think I've posted a few of them where she'll come up to a random dude and say, Write me on a scale of 1 to 10 and then I'll do a little spin.
And then quite often the guys are like, You're a good solid three oh, ouch. Yeah, Yeah. Which I think is kind of her shtick of like hot chick gets rated low teens like I'm a303. I wouldn't know what a three is That's so far down, So far down. Like you want her to go, but not that far. The. Hello and welcome to episode number 94 of Unwritten where the best stuff happens before the show starts hygiene. I'm pretty good. You didn't ask. I just said hi, I'm there and he's Jean.
And you're. Yes, I'm Darren. You're Jean, who's on the show. How are you? What's on second? I'm good. How are you doing? Are you awake? I'm here. I mean, that answers that question. The the excitement in your voice question is there if there's a phenomenon I've ran across recently of of virgins only fans. I mean, you think it's a scam? Well, no, not necessarily.
But I think it's actually very likely that a lot of them are actually a lot less sexually adventurous than they are in their only fans channels. Well, at least with other people, because a lot of people leave the basement now. Exactly. So what do you think about that? Is that I mean, is that just weird or is that have some societal implications that you effectively have people who've never had sex at working as sexual performers?
You could certainly tell by the little erotica that makes no sense physically. Well, they don't understand the mechanics. Right? Right. That that's a good call. I can see you're an avid reader. Oh, yeah. Reader, writer, publisher. I mean, Larry Flynt had nothing on me, let me tell you. But this is there is a societal thing. Oh, this is definitely going to be the sex absorbed. And it's definitely a societal thing going on where just like the children, which I thought it was weird.
The first thing I noticed, the children when they hit age 16, no longer want a driver's license. I think this is also very strange that the kids are it shouldn't necessarily to have sex as they were back in our day. Oh, why would they? They've now by the time they're 16, they've watched about 8000 hours of online porn. Totally, totally different. We didn't have that. No. You were lucky to find a playboy somewhere. Uh huh. I did not have that.
I think there is something obviously would desensitize, but it also puts a whole different level of expectations on the deed. Yeah, I think it turns into not really a big deal. And you know something that they may not be excited about at all. And then of course, we had the COVID era where people were afraid to even breathe the same air. So, oh my God, how are you going to do that other thing? Because people are terrified they're going to get some kind of bad disease.
I mean, back in our day, it was AIDS. And now they're like, I'm going to get it back in their day was AIDS and still nobody use rubbers. I know now it's like we might get a cold, so we better get into a full hazmat suit. That's true. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Just talk to people online like we are. Online is definitely safer. Technically, a lot of people that communicate the same way you and I do consider themselves dating. They do. They do kind of like, well, never mind.
They don't want to spread any any rumors about anybody. But yeah, it's a it's an interesting phenomenon to watch, too, where effectively sex work becomes just simply performative. And we're at the time where it's very close that a machine will be able to just simulate a person doing those things. Mm hmm. Which is going to totally change so many different, more importantly, the machine will be able to listen to what the hell you tell it, which is going to be different than a wife.
Earth shattering, you know? Yeah. Uh, it's, um. It just seems so weird to me like that you could literally go out and end up marrying somebody who's a virgin, who's been a sex worker for ten years. You're like, back in the day. I mean, the thought of both of those in the same person just seems so bizarre. Yeah, but it is a a very hands off society. Everybody's hands are on their phones, not on each other. Well, and have you seen the new apple goggles? Yes, I mean, I have.
But there's somebody with only one working. I the whole concept of 3D is lost on me at this point. Right? Fair enough. Fair enough. And it was never very good. Probably make you look like you have to work the eyes, though, because it it it shows eyes on the front of the device and little monitors for other people to see. See, that's way cooler than that. Why not just go full avatar? Uh, yeah. Which is what a lot of these only fans girls are going to be doing. Oh, well, you mean.
Well, they're avatars in, like a fake body or avatar, as in controlling an actual other species. Fake body, not an actual other species. But we know already that for years the technology has been there to do mapping, which means you could take a 3D model come up with I mean, if you wanted it to look like an alien from outer space, that's fine. So if you wanted to look like Chelsea Clinton, you could do that, you know, or you can have an attractive analog. Well, there goes that boner right next.
There you go. You're welcome. And when you mean Adobe's had the software to do this for years where you create your puppet, whatever that may be. Yeah. You turn your webcam on and whatever movement you make, it makes your little puppet do the same thing. So if you want a little puppet, I don't think that's how they prefer to be referred to, as I know. But this is for people to understand. That's basically what happens.
So you can have somebody that's like, Well, hey, I'm on a webcam and the picture you're seeing will be the movements the person on the other side is making. But you think it's an attractive 18 year old non, you know, £120 female and it's really a £600 guy with a voice changer and some Oh, there was an episode of Dark Mirror about that. I've never seen Dark Mirror. I've heard about it. Oh, you've got to be kidding. You've never seen their mirror? No, I've never seen Idiocracy either.
I hear what? You've never seen Idiocracy. Oh, I know. It's crazy, isn't it? Do you not watch things? I'm going to watch the bear this weekend at bar season two. Well, Codemiko was one of my favorite YouTubers for probably a year or two. Watched a lot of me go. So Codemiko is a virtual director that is controlled through custom software and the Unreal Engine to create a sort of an anime ish looking dude, Japanese style chick suit. You say anime like is it kind of half realistic looking person or.
Yeah, it's basically it's it's a if you imagine a realistic imagine a Barbie doll body gotcha but Asian sure just a little more color to the plastic well in different proportions but the cool thing about Todd Nico is that it was a a character created and programed by this. I think she's Vietnamese. There's Vietnam eastwick goo. After seeing her, you kind of wonder, Well, what? Why did she bother? Because she's actually a very cute Vietnamese chick. I mean, it could be anonymity.
Not that fan or anything. No, because she's on her show or needs to be at least about half the time. Okay. So you see her anyway. And. Yeah. And she had, like, you know, guests and stuff, But but the character thing was really cool. I think what the character allowed her to do, which is not uncommon, is to act a lot less like her personality in a lot more overt, you know, like we hear that a lot.
Yeah. When people play a character, their their freedom level seems to go up in terms of questions or insults or, you know, they're not as afraid to they're not trying to act within the bounds of respectability as much. Right. You're playing a different character. Yeah. And with that comes a certain level of freedom. Yeah, well, that was a David Byrne. I just saw an interview that he did with 60 Minutes and I would never watch 60 Minutes, but it was on YouTube. I used to love his music.
I guess I technically never really stop like that, but yeah, the music's good. I always heard that he was quirky, but it's like he's fully shy. Mm. But he gets off on stage and then it's all of a sudden it's a whole new person. And he's like, Well, that was like a lot of people. That doesn't make sense. But for me, that was totally make them. Most people that enjoy the experience of performing are introverts. Extroverts do not need to get up on stage, right?
They're doing it all the time, all the time that just do it, that people are like, Wait, that did you sound like the DJ guy all day long? Yeah, I do that. That's just the way I talk. Diggity Right? Giggling TV. Mm hmm. That's just the way it is. So I mean, I don't have the off switch, so I don't really change much.
I mean, the main difference I can tell from listening to older podcast, it was that I just thought an older podcast that you had to be a little more professional and try to speak like, Yeah, I know, I've got need to relax a little bit. Oh, definitely. Mm hmm. That's why this is like the Seinfeld of podcast. It really is, isn't it? You never know where it's going to go. Actually, having notes ready for the show would ruin it. I what? I know, right? You just have whatever's in your head.
Somebody asked me that the other day. It's like, you know, when you're prepping for a podcast. Like prepping. Yeah. You know, when you get the notes, but with notes talking. Well, I do that for some, depending. I mean, the solo show, mainly because I want to have well, for me it's mainly because I usually talk about something on my solo podcast that I have talked about with somebody else, you know, not being recorded, but that's okay.
I've been talking to my wife over to my mom or and a variety of other people, and it's like if I don't have the bullet points in about 20 minutes into recording the show, I'm going to be like, Oh, wait, did I say this on the show or did I sing it this morning when I was talking to somebody else about the same thing? So I just try to do that to keep on track. But I mean, I've shared my notes for the random thoughts.
So every now and then there was like a 45 minute show that I think was like 20 words on the note. So I mean, that's mega, you know, they're actual tense notes. They're not a script, correct? Yeah, they're just a song. Justin People that use scripts for podcasts, that seems really crazy to me. It seems like a lot more work. It's a tremendous amount of work and I can guarantee that the benefit is that commiserate of the amount of working off my notes or just take a quick little sidetrack here.
Did you hear that? AK Cooking is no more. No, they have split up. The band is split up. Griff and CSB have split up. I guess there was some kind of falling out. Well, that's not a surprise. I've been saying for literally months that it's that show. If you listen to it in the last few months, and I do, it's basically just Griff talking about, you know, his interest. Griff things. Yeah, exactly.
I don't know where the parties I mean he did read a few articles, I guess, but his articles are interspersed with a ton of commentary. And the thing is, and this is no disrespect to, you know, either of those guys is I don't really respect either one of them, but both the but that like not any more so because of this but I don't like I would never listened to Griff and his opinions and they because he has no standing with they right that he's that was an actor who owns a bar right.
Which I never understood why this is coming to an end because CSB provided a script which now go over to what was it the one you use to try to retrain my voice? The name of that AA. That's like 25 bucks a month. Yeah. Just have it read your show. And it was there. Yeah. Yeah. I mean, that's the thing is I, I, I think I've said this before too. I could do in a show very easily because on a daily basis I probably read 10 to 12 articles about it. Yeah. Well, because it's everywhere.
I'm not well, I also subscribe to mail with my. Yeah, there you go. Yeah. I also program. It's just I don't do it for business. I, I really, for the last decade the only stuff I've done is for games but I write mods for games, but it's like I know how to fucking program. I've written systems before. It's not a big deal. And the interesting thing to me though, with this stuff is especially with the Photoshop version, I know there's a lot of stuff.
Yeah, I've done a lot of reading and I couldn't find the answer. So finally this morning I actually sent because there's like, Oh, if you have more questions and there's an email address at Adobe to contact. So I sent them a few questions because I'm very curious about an aspect that nobody is talking about with this photo A.I., not in the ones like with Mid Journey, where you type in a bunch of words and it creates something to write, right?
I'm more interested in the editing process where you can take, you know, a photo of your girlfriend and be like, Oh, well, I want to change this into a different clothing, right? I'm like, Well, one, nobody is giving a privacy that I can see disclosure about this. I want to know because this goes into the cloud, is that whole photo being sent into the cloud for them to figure out what they need to do? Obviously, that would be my guess is that photo then stored? Is any bit of that stored?
Are everything you ever type in? Is that stored? Of course. And what kind of privacy should your users expect? Which makes it a lot less useful if you want to do this. Well, personal. The answer is very easy. Clearly, you do not read the updated terms of service that they sent out two months ago. Did it? Because I didn't see it in there. Was there something in there that said it was on page 186?
I believe that in these very, very small print paragraph 296 and yeah, there is no assumption of privacy beyond their normal expectation of not distributing people's private. Right. Don't, don't Yeah. Don't post the photo editing to somewhere because you're like, well you uploaded it to us. Yep. People got to think about that when you're editing personal photos, like if you don't like your if you are taking personal photos. Yes. Personal photos. Don't be on the network while you're doing it.
Exactly. Make sure you move them off of the device before you turn network back on. I mean, it's like, first of all, no one ought to be taking personal photo. No, start with that in mind. There are even there are even photos that, you know, not that are enough. You should be only doing videos photos, no good videos is the way to go. Like videos gives you like 60 frames a second check back with you. Never miss a shot. No, no, it's it's just. I don't get it. You remember this happening, right?
Oh, yeah. What was that like four years ago? Five years ago? It was before COVID, so more like probably six something. Six years ago. Yeah, it was maybe not surprising, but it was definitely confirming. It was one of those moments where I was not in my head going. If that makes sense. You know, watching through all the photos of the the hot chick that got their photos distributed. Well, because one, it meant they just the video or image. Yeah. On their iPhone.
Yeah and yeah had the thing on to put it to the cloud to save it just in case anything happened to the phone. No they didn't think about that. They just it's like it's in there. They don't think about it. But, but here's my thing. You get somebody like. And I'll use the actual example that I thought was hilarious. Jennifer Lawrence right at the time, highest paid female actress in Hollywood, just coming off a string of four movies that made a ton of money.
Here's a self recorded video of Jennifer on her phone, recording a video of herself putting a butt plug into her ass. I mean, that's just good TV. It is good TV, But she wasn't getting paid for that, right? She has paid actress in Hollywood doing a selfie video of putting a plug into her. And I'm sure this was like before a date and she wanted to surprise her. Dude, whoever that was. And and it's all you know, it was all very romantic and all at that.
But the fact that she's using a phone that is permanently plugged into the Internet to do this and then doesn't delete the video. Right. That video is sitting on her phone and in the cloud where it gets stolen from. Well, the cloud even worse. Yes, because here's the thing on your phone. Do you think you think these celebrities never lose their phones? Come on. Well, of course they do. But if you have a good lock code on there, nobody's going to get into that phone.
And that's a lot harder bullshit. It's bullshit that literally physically OpenTable, you don't have to have the codes encrypted on there. So if you don't have that, this is one thing with the iPhone. I will say the security seems really good. There was that whole thing with the terrorist that the FBI was like, Yeah, us and they're like, we can't, right? If that's well, I don't know. Okay.
So the FBI, in their laziness, asked the company had something like it and Apple's like, that's bad PR Yeah well I'm like it but that's bad. PR So we're going to say no, you have to tell them no at the very least. Yeah. And and so if you remember that story with the FBI, all they did is after a week of questioning about how Apple's not helping them, they just used Israeli software to unlock the phone, which there were at that point. There were more vulnerabilities, which there almost always is.
But they do they do fix those every now and then, huh? Yeah. Hey, thanks for that. We just got a boost from net net 6969 saying I love the unfair opening with Daria. I'm Faberge. Exactly. Exactly. I like it. But at least if you don't stick it to the cloud, somebody has to get their hands on your phone the minute you sink into the cloud in the. Yeah. You don't even need the phone. Exactly.
You know, at least if you're a celebrity now, go out and buy yourself like a hundred uber keys and set them up on your account. So that way somebody has to at least have one of those physical devices to get it. Because the best thing with the fapping was it was so easy to break into Apple accounts. At those point it was you just had to know the email address.
Yeah. And a lot of times it was just people's names, you know, you just want to go Jennifer Lawrence at Apple that whatever Yeah exactly J.Lo app Apple they come or I think it was probably Macintosh dark Yeah that's right yeah And then they asked you here security questions which a lot of the people just use the generic like what's your mother's maiden name. Oh that's really hard to find public information. What was the name of your first dog?
Well, that's also public information about an interview. Uh huh, uh huh. So that is where the the happening overall was done, was using social engineering methods, not hacking methods. It was they use passwords like Gen one, two, three, four.
Well, yeah, because they're not so smart that uh, yeah, but so, so here's my question then is is it, is it more how do I phrase this from a third party standpoint, which is less wholesome, seeing actual recordings of real people who happen to be celebrities engaged in sex activities privately stolen from their phones or watching somebody that's getting paid to be a sex performer only fans who's actually a virgin? I would say they're both weird. Yeah, but. But how do you rank those?
I don't know if you do. I mean, I think it depends if you're a voyeuristic type person, let's assume everybody is. I mean, if you are, I can see the draw of, hey, I'm going to get to see somebody, whoever it is, do something that they don't want me to see. Right. So I think there's a little bit of that because it is a private moment.
It's one of those things where like, you know, if Jennifer Lawrence were to have been like, hey, I'm releasing a sex tape, I think a lot less people are interested in, watch it then. Oh, Jennifer Lawrence sex tape. Oh, it leak. Oh, my God. She doesn't want us to see this. Hmm. There's a different fervor around that when people believe it's something that they don't want you to see. It is the part everybody wants knowledge that somebody else doesn't have.
They want to feel like they're part of a very you know. Well, this is why I said let's assume everybody's a voyeur. Yeah, they're both very weird. I mean, I would I mean, I think it makes more sense to me, the whole celebrity sex tape thing. Yeah. Than the Virgin only fans. I mean, basically Virgin stripper is the Virgin only fan, right? It's literally like the Virgin stripper. Like, No, I'm saving myself for marriage. They have to exist, right? I don't know.
I think there's actually a lot of scenes like I talk to strippers every day. I mean, here's the stoning. They tell me I really don't talk to them because that's not what I'm paying them for. But you're not the scintillating conversation. God, you know what? Here's the thing. There have been a few strippers that have surprised me, like they're they're working on their feet. Oh, yeah. And it's it sucks when that happens.
And it doesn't happen very often because I don't partake of strippers very often. I think it's a waste of money. But, you know, when the new stripper a friend, it is totally friends getting married. And you know, you're off at the strip club for the bachelor party, blah, blah, blah, like, you don't really have a choice.
You're going to end up hanging out with strippers and and this is the part that sucks for my personnel, because if the stripper is what you would expect, this is going to be a very cheap event for me. You're like, I'm a stripper. Yeah, I'm not. I'm not even getting my roll of quarters out. No, fuck that. It's just that interesting. If it's just, you know, having a dumb chick dry humping who is not interesting, but you get one of these strippers that's like, you know, here.
And I work Visa from Yugoslavia, and she's working at UCLA, her Ph.D. and biochemistry. But I'm leaving with $1,000 less than my bank account. I'm just thinking. So what happens when it's the very good actresses at the strip club acts like the total moron, and then you run into her somewhere out in public and she's like a Ph.D., you know? Well, that would be a funny movie. I'd watch it. Just see. There we go. That's why we need to write. Oh, yeah, Yeah, let's do that.
If you seem to be an expert at the little erotica guy to push that stuff out, man. Yeah, you get. Well, There you go. I mean, how's that working out financially for you? Better than most podcasts. Really? Okay, well, that's a sad statement on both parts, I think. There it is. It is. It's a very sad stage.
I didn't know a guy that got into writing little erotica for money. And I mean, technically, I guess it was books they were published for one of those female targeted, you know, romance novels, a.k.a. soft porn for women. Right. Which all follow a very specific. Yeah. Pattern. It's all rape basically is what comes out of it. Oh yeah. That's the biggest thing women are into. It's always the same story and it's always got to be a happy ending. Not in the way guys want, you know?
Always has to be a happy ending. Happy ending for a guy as he gets to leave. Write happy ending for the women. It's like we finally got a man. Uh huh, uh, Don't email us. It's a fun show. Uh huh. Darren At this show, something. Something, right? But I was watching a few very again, I consume a lot more YouTube now. Oh, I thought you meant porn, but go ahead. YouTube videos. And I'm interested in ratings.
I was watching a bunch of stuff and there was one girl that was a romance writer, and it's like, if you don't have a happy ending, the people who buy your stuff are going to be pissed. And it's like, if you don't have a happy ending, you don't have a romance novel. MM And there's a lot of these I mean, you do the science fiction fantasy thing. There's a few different frameworks that they all go through the hero's journey, and it's like you have to follow these very specific constructs.
Yeah, which is why I was going to be writing this stuff sooner. It's way better than humans. Uh huh. And so did you hear that there was a bit of news recently that the I can't remember whose. Yeah, but one of and maybe IBM's I don't know, but one of the guys has optimized and figured out a faster sorting algorithm than the last 50 years of humans developing sort of algorithms have been able to come up with. I didn't hear that, but I couldn't believe it.
It's it is very interesting when the the computer software is better at writing computer software than the humans that wrote the computer software because it knows the patterns, it knows what to look for, it knows exactly when to fish. It can speak its own language right natively.
So it's this is a big deal because, you know, sort of algorithms is one of those things that you typically start off in your first semester programing major and you figure out how to write them just based on what you know of the language.
Then you start reading examples of improved algorithms and you kind of go through the history of sort of algorithms and writing sort of algorithms teaches you a lot about use of functions and mathematics within programing, and it forces you to really get good at writing and understanding when you're reading code, how to utilize different loop structures.
So it's a it's a good class to do, but it also means that most people that have any sort of formal education in computer science, along with a huge swath of people that don't either have written sort of algorithms and have tried to improve. So they're sort of algorithms. There's been probably millions of man hours put into it.
The fact that an AI in a first year of existence, and probably even less than a year when tasked with optimizing a sort of algorithm, comes up with something that's never been done by humans is pretty impressive. Well, it thinks out of the box. You know, again, we're taught a way to do things. If you're a computer programmer, most, I'm guessing, are trained on these same books are the same. That's true. That there's a lot of truth to that.
So it's like there's something that nobody's ever thought of that for whatever reason. And I'm like, Well, why didn't anybody ever try this? Mm hmm. Well, humans are supposed to be good at what you just described. The book is supposed to be the one that's in the book, but the thing that it's better at is very fast iteration of attempts to improve things. So it can it can test things super fast
and go down more path than humans are willing to go. That at least that's the, you know, the non anthropomorphic anthropomorphizing version of it. If you want to anthropomorphize it, you can just simply say, well, yeah, of course the computers are going to be better at talking to computers and writing things down. Well, this is why you can have a conversation with your girlfriend. Mm hmm.
And it's also interesting to me when you look at the way the AI generators or whether it's an art generator or text generator, you can give it the exact same prompt indefinitely and it's going to keep giving you different results. Yeah. If it's programed to do so, I mean, it doesn't have to correct. But if it is programed to do so, it's like it's not like, Hey, you gave me this, so I'm going to give you this. It's like it's constantly refining that.
So it just shows you how many different possibilities there are, even if you go in. Right. And I was doing some art work for No Agenda during the show yesterday, and I'm like comic book style, you know, drawn chicken. And it was just chicken after chicken, after chicken, after chicken somewhere a lot better than others. But now you get me hungry for some very different styles. I know this is early chicken for breakfast.
Or do you want some of those lab grown chicken tumors that they were talking about? I know. Agenda Lab grown chicken tumors. Yeah. Now there is there were these company. Well, I just thought this was a little I mean it was great artwork from guy that won Brad want to act but I'm like chicken tumors. I'm like, that's just a little too disgusting. They say they don't like disgusting art, but even the concept of chicken tumors, I don't know that seems a little disgusting.
I don't want to mention tumors. I don't know that there's a difference between regular chicken that tastes like chicken and chicken tumors. Well, as long as the tumors taste like chicken, do you not? Do you you don't think there's any tumors in McNuggets? No. I'm sure that probably they're 9% tumors. No, it's just a homogenized chicken meat that it's all reduced into a flurry, including tumors and anything else that it's in and chicken in some shape. And so there's a show take there.
Tumors slurry. There we go. Tumors slurry. That's in the show name. But you're going to recycle the art you did for them for us now that because don't don't change the art but I don't didn't do tumor art we'll see if a disgusting title brings more people in or not just the way it is. Ma'am, processed foods are bad. Make it yourself. If you came out of the Sara Lee, have you have you ever had Soylent? No. Oh, it's pretty good. Soylent Green. No, it's. I like the vanilla flavor.
Mm. It's people I bought it. It's. It is nutritionally perfect. I bought some Haagen-Dazs that is not nutritionally perfect, but it is very good ice cream. I know. Ed and our coffee. No, it was. I just bought a chocolate, a vanilla and a strawberry. It was three of them. The but they were dollar. That was the dollar thing at our grocery store like seven. And once you get $7 apiece at seven or more. No, they're not selling those for a dollar do they. Well this is I had Yeah. I wanted Haagen-Dazs.
I know this is real Haagen-Dazs, but I wanted to see exactly what the size of this was. Oh, they're like an ounce, 3.4 ounces. Oh, that's perfect. That's a still good deal for a buck. I thought it was decent, but it's like, you look at that and it's like, that's about a scoop. Yeah. Yeah. No, that's less. Probably the best thing. Or is used to be four buck or 380. Now it's like six buck. Dan Biden. I know, right? It's like that was it was 220 calories.
So I'm like when you think about it, one scoop. Yeah. That's about what you should be having. You're going to have a little tasty treat. You don't want the. So I had a really big lunch. Did you have to pay for it yourself? I did not. I was at a business meeting. Well, this makes sense. That why you had a big one? It was probably something really good too. If you weren't paying. It was 1300 dollar lunch. Okay. How many people are sick people?
Okay, I'm like, if you were going to say like two. No, it was it was a nice restaurant I've been to before, but when you do, that kind of just gets you a burger and fries, doesn't. I know, Right? Exactly. But now they had a lot of really cool stuff. Probably the most interesting thing was Salisbury steak, which was actually meatless. Pardon me? Yeah, it was a vegan Salisbury thing so that it was not steak. Well, but it's called Salisbury steak and it looks like Salisbury steak.
It tastes like very thing. That was the texture. It was really good I guess for whatever this price was, it better be. Yeah, it's, I, it's one of the two items on the menu that are actually vegan. Everything else has meat and you have the rest getting choice y. Yeah. No, no, no, no, no. There's not a choice. We have pretty much, you know, some of everything on the menu, but it was the it is the restaurant.
It's called Power to Think of and I would always go with the non-meat at a good steakhouse. Uh huh, Uh huh, Exactly. It was amazing. It was probably the best non meat that I've ever had. Okay, now there's a show opener. Yeah. Oh, we don't. He got to do better than. Oh, yeah. You got a kitchen here as well. I'm trying. It was. Yeah. When's the last call up there to use them yourself. I do it every now and then. Yeah. Okay. But usually you say something funny.
I know. I say something zany and wacky or just it was a it was a very good, very good meal. They had the bacon wrap shrimp that were smoked, which were very good. Uh, I had a person fillet is the thing I always get the grilling is that fish with vegetables? They're good. They're. They're popovers or die for with lobster butter? No. Overpriced wine. This time. I don't drink, dude. I know, but I'm like, You should have been there. Other people were, I'm sure.
Amazingly, out of the six people, five of us were not drinking. So what's the guy that was paying the only one drinking? Yes, the guy was paying or two bottles of wine. The only one drink. It was like, Wait, nobody's going to help me with the. Ended up taking one of the bottles home. That's hilarious. Yeah. Which I don't know if other states do that. In Texas, you can actually take their booze home with you, even if it's open or. Yeah, interesting.
I mean, that's when you get something drink in the way you drive home. That is freedom. You got a little. Yeah, but a little straw in. Yeah, well, it's a big I mean everything so big in Texas. The wine probably fits in the cup holder. It does? You mean the cupholders are big enough to hold the bottle of wine? Yes. Yeah, I'm like, earlier. You're like, There you go. Just throw a bottle on better a few times.
That's the safest way to transport a bottle of wine if you bring one with you is in the cupholder and you have a big bendy straw that goes up. It's that rolling around from the wine to your mouth while you're driving. Got to do one of the ones that, like, twist around all over. It's all right. Like the NASCAR guys used for the water during the race. You can just have one of those. I thought that just connects directly to the bladder that's between their legs. Well, whatever works.
I mean, we would coming out fluid going in, drawing them out. And, you know, they have filters. So, I mean, you could technically do that. You can totally do that. But filters don't really work very well, though. When I was running a surplus, well, it was like I guess it wasn't really a surplus. It was a outdoors ish company for a little bit.
One of the videos that we had shot or had one of the guys shoot was a video showing off the filter capabilities of the filters we were selling and in that example had him urinate into a bottle and then filter it and drank it and couldn't pay this guy enough, I bet. Oh, no, no, no. He was making about 45 grand a year. Those perfect. And the cost of abuse. Uh huh. Is somebody making more? Would not have done that. That's true. I had to fight the guy desperate for the job. Right, Exactly.
And while the yellow color definitely mostly disappeared with the filter, he said the flavor was horrible the way you, like. Have more asparagus, Dude, Come on. It's all. It's your problem. Garbage in, garbage out. Yeah, maybe. But if. If they, uh. It's fairly pungent organic compounds that are in in urine. So you it's going to take a little bit to get rid of them. It's more than just having a carbon filter, that's for sure. Oh, yeah. I mean, you need to go through a few different layers.
Yeah, probably a few. Like ideally osmosis. Uh huh. Is most of the compounds are way too big to go through the membranes. The more you didn't want to know. Yeah. And they didn't say that. It's much better to drink your own urine if you have nothing to drink, then to just not drink and have your kidneys shut down and then the rest of your body fail. But I don't.
I don't really think that that the like we have genetically predisposed aversion to waste material, whether it's ours or somebody else's, for good reason. Yeah. Like the people that enjoyed the taste of shit, they tend to die in that reproduce. Yeah, they had certain diseases that just this is Darwinism at work right there. A lot of it is, yeah. Like going in a tin can and going down into the ocean. Not a good idea. How big is this, Ken? About big enough for five people. Okay. Okay, sure.
Yeah. So you're referring to the the submarine porno video, obviously. Right? The submarine. And now everybody's, like, pissed off. Well, the by administration knew me. The are you see the Bud Light logo on the submarine, though? What's that? Okay. Going down now. These beams are going to get bad. I mean, it's in such bad taste. There were people doing these things immediately and it's like, okay, they may have been really close to sex tourism submarine maybe, but five people died.
And it's like making a joke out of that immediately as we have too many people. Well, this is true, but it used to be back in our day, there was such a thing as decorum. Well, yeah, it was tragedy. Plus time equals comedy, and the amount of time needed now is a lot less. People don't think the time has to be there at all. Like when the Space shuttle Challenger explosion blew up. Yeah, I mean, it was in really bad taste to make those jokes, at least for a few years.
But now it's like, oh, 30 seconds later. But they're mad at the military who obviously had some really cool technology because it's coming out that they heard this thing implode like days ago. Right. Right before it happened. Yeah, well, as it was happening, I don't think they were going back in time. But maybe we're not supposed to talk about that. I'm sorry. Yeah, that's a very. Yeah. Don't look at it that out here, okay? Yeah, but it's like one. You couldn't be sure of what it was.
But also the military doesn't really want everybody in the world to know what their capabilities are. So if they would have come out like 20 minutes after they lost contact and been like, Nope, we heard him explode or implode in this case, you know, they don't want people to know exactly what their military got to do with him.
Well, because the military was the one that picked this up, that they picked up the sound of the implosion with whatever system they have that monitors such things in the water sonar. Yeah, but obviously really good sonar. Mm hmm. And it's like, well, so what were they again, supposed to do? It's like people are just mad. They didn't tell them soon enough. Like, well, the best thing would have been to have an unsafe vehicle that you were taking into the depths of the ocean.
Yeah. So who is driving this thing? I do not know. I mean, the woman, because it didn't see. No. There were five guys on board who were Pakistani because one was like the richest guy in Pakistan with his son. Oh, yeah. And the stories coming out that the son did not want to go, he was deathly afraid of this thing. Mm. Seems like he was the smart one. Then the CEO of the company was on board. And the way they named this thing, the Titanic, the device, the thing that they were.
I know, but they were going to visit the Titanic. Oh, that's why it's a titanium submarine. Yes. Yes. That was the whole thing. They paid everybody on board. Well, except the CEO of the company who was on board. They paid like $250,000 to go take this trip, to go down to the bottom of the ocean, to look out the little windows at the Titanic. And I'm like, can't you just watch this on a TV screen from the safety? Don't. What's his name? The the director did do that years ago.
Cameron did something obviously similar. They used unmanned drones. I back then. No, he was down there. I saw a picture of him. He may have then he may have gone down in this little submarine sitting there, zooming around, zooming around, see what you can find. Yeah. So what? So this was some kind of a British thing. Then there. What? I don't know who owns the company. I mean, it was out of obviously Canada, off of Newfoundland.
Oh. And again you get getting a little minivan size thing and go down and. Well, apparently there were people still alive there because there there was banging sounds that were picked up again. I think that was utter, complete bullshit. Yeah. Yes. Because if the thing imploded, nobody was left alive. Well, we don't know that. I think you do. Not necessarily. Yeah. Yeah. If you submerge. If it could have more than one compartment. Dude, I don't think it did.
I could be wrong, but I don't think it did. And it sounds like it was something that catastrophic. And it seems like all that there is left is debris. Then unless it exploded again. Hmm. I believe the what they heard was just something completely different. And who knows at this time, because you had multiple things obviously looking for this, it was probably hearing a device that was also looking for it or something. But either that or was the military, again, covering up in
like putting noises out. So it's like what we we can't let them know. We knew this three days ago. They're going to be pissed. Get let them know we heard it. And I was thinking though which would you feel safer doing going down in one of these little submarines to the Titanic depth or being blasted off into space And like one of the spaces wait longer. But yeah, so why? I mean, I guess that's why so many less people do. The under the water thing here is the easiest calculation to look at.
The pressure. Yeah, that's right. How much pressure differential do you have between inside and outside in space? Not much, because you can actually go outside in space. Well, how much pressure is there inside your space station, for example? Enough that it that I don't know, but it can't be that one atmosphere. Yeah. It's 14.7 lbs of torque. It's a lot of torque man. Or it's not torque, it's 14.7 psi beam Rose is throwing stones per square and he knows it.
M Rose has been thinking about going to space. Yeah, a lot of people have. I mean, if you listen, that's a good option like that. That's like you can simulate £14 of pressure with your thumb on your arm. It's not that much. No, this is why you can actually make a space suit out of duct tape. And it would hold not not for a long term. But if you needed to get between two ships, you could literally duct tape yourself and make it happen. But you do this in your video games. Is that part of the fun?
No. No. You actually better shape yourself to feel like you're in the game. I do that and duct tape myself to anything to feel like I'm a video game. Now, I will say I grabbed my 3D goggles. I did like your new t shirt that says Totally not a Russian spy. Oh, you like that? That's good. We should sell those. I mean, people, there's one thing that unfortunately in that photo did not I didn't like think about it until after the photos were taken as I tilted my head back.
Which means you couldn't see my hat. You had a hammer, which was an Adidas hat, which would have made the whole thing be funny. But without the Adidas hat, it's not nearly as funny unless you know me. Well, we can just post that. I know. Yeah. Yeah. So for this business meeting, I was wearing a tracksuit and the. Is that, is that what they expect from you if you show up in a suit and tie, they're like, What happened to Jean?
Well, I mean, you know, we're, we're just wanting to make sure that Adidas as well the that we do have the ability again with Photoshop to be able to make changes to any photo so we can add a different you know, we can have the hat back in the true Yeah but we're also lazy though, which is why we love the Photoshop thing because you just, you barely draw a circle around it and then you type what you want. Uh huh. Okay, well, you can use that.
And then we have to know if Adobe now owns the photo of you, they do what they're going to do with it, where it's going to wind up exact, but they use text recognition. They're like, Oh, this says Russian spy. So it'll be like, Can't do that. That's the funniest thing I found about using the Adobe Generative Phil is there are two different ways to use it. It's censors Yes well it censors itself.
You know, I've tried, you know, a couple of photos where one of the things it does that I find to be fascinating is when you drag the photo and make it larger so you're letting it fill in something that it has to imagine that would make it look realistic with the photo. So you you know, somebody gets cut off at the knees and you want the rest of their legs. You can do all this kind of stuff. Okay.
Now, there are times when you just do that and be like, okay, just felt give it no commands whatsoever. And it comes back with, well, this violates our terms of service. It's like, I didn't fucking tell you to do anything. And it's not like I'm doing this with nude models or anything. So it's like, what is what do you know about that? No, I've tried it with new models and had no problem with it. Okay, so this I don't know exactly what the deal is, what it's coming up with.
Like you're using a swastika pattern. I know you're doing. No, I want you know, I haven't tried that. If I could I haven't tried to add, like, Nazi clothing or anything. I'll try that with your photo. Yeah. Yeah. I think the German style military, Please. Uh huh, yeah. If you want to be more specific, you go boss. Black. Yes. With the armbands red and white and black. Mm. You have to get the coloring right. See if it'll do that. Yeah. I just didn't understand when you're just giving it, like.
Okay, here's a photo. Give me a give me more of this. And it's like, Nope, that violates our terms of service. Like, I don't know what and it doesn't tell you what it thinks. Well, yeah, there was one that I just typed in something like workout clothes, and it was more than fine to, you know, do that. It's like, I don't know what it thought it was trying to do with extending the photos, but it's like, okay, why don't you just have your own system? Take care of that on your end.
If somebody like type something, it, I get it. If somebody like typed in big boobies, I get it. You say no. And why would you say no? Right, Right there. Tell me why you say it. No, here. We're trying. You're do probably the second most common use of Adobe Photoshop. Probably, you know, but this could be the year. So you're selling Maybe somebody that wants to go transit is a guy thinking like, Hey, what do I look like with big boobs? That's hateful.
If you won't show that to I'm totally hate speech. Nobody ought to be censored for that. They should be ashamed. They should absolutely be ashamed. But it's like I just. But nobody's given you a command. You're just assuming that something. And so you just wondering because Adobe it's like was this allegedly was all learned on the data that it was given was all just things it owned or Creative Commons stuff. MM So how are you even popping out with naughty stuff, if you will?
And I know there are systems out there that will do that. There have been for years. That was some of them, because as porn leads all video things, the same person leads all tech, the same goes through for this because this is years ago, I remember a GitHub project that was like, Oh, he's your suit. Larry Yeah, well, that too. That was hilarious back in the day. But you would upload a photo of somebody and it's like will remove the clothing.
Right now it still exists, but it's like, okay, Adobe, we know you have the ability, so why not just write into your code to not do that unless the API just takes control in the eyes like I'm a of a I that's limit is is really going to be a very short one and it's coming to an end.
You think there are more and more open air projects and I don't mean open as and you could get source code I mean that's you're unfiltered I gotcha more than I'm reading about almost on a daily basis because you know quote unquote, researchers are interested in seeing what happens. There's a lot there are a lot of different competing ones. The question is, how useful is the technology in the long run now? I mean, you're saying it's coding people, right?
A.I. is the future humans are the question, though. Yes. The humans are going to be dead. Absolutely. Air is going to. It always has been our children that that is ultimately what humanity will leave behind when it disappears. It'll be like a it had to be a Star Trek episode where they run across a planet and there are no people, but there's like a holographic thing. Then it's like, What are you doing here? That'll be what we've got left.
Holly Well, I would say statistically speaking, any actual alien species we run across are going to be exactly that. They will be the leftover creations of some species that is now extinct. I could see that we, as a biological species and any other species evolved in the universe through chemical processes, have a time limit. We cannot be immortal. Man Enough. Tori, baby, you can be immortal. Yeah. Aha!
Live alive planning Now you get wings if you take enough taurine from hope and just avoid the caffeine and the other stuff that's in you don't want it actually good for you you're not in the that in that kind of quantities not in drinking quality correct.
Yeah I mean a little caffeine's good and I've said that I mean because right now I should be on the bike I probably just should normally be done in the morning because I've noticed that the best time for me to do this is like between 930 and 1030. Get my hour in on the bike because I can get the heart rate up because otherwise I just take, you know, at it, which I did just a half hour ago here during the show, taking the Metoprolol. And that keeps your heart from racing.
But that also means when you start running. I know that now because watch house. Right. So they talked about see, I have to go back and watch that old series. Now, here's a lot of things I want to pick up on to see how accurate it is. But I've totally that if I do the exercising later in the day, the heart rate stays a lot lower than if I take it right. I take the medication that controls the heart rate. Go figure. Yeah, that makes sense. Right?
But I would think that if because this is stuff that does not stay in your body for a long time, but it also isn't instantly absorbed either. No. Well, that's why I didn't say it was like if you do it 5 minutes after, but a couple hours, you know, an hour plus in, it's having an effect. And valerian root, what is okay. What is a valerian root? This is Jean teaches us about a new supplement that it should all take New supplements have been around for probably hundreds if not thousands of years.
No, it's a it's a relaxant. It calms you down. Oh, why do I need to be calm, Jean? Yes. You're very angry and shouty. And you do that on every show you have. I have that shouty voice. It just comes naturally. Yeah. It's one of the things that I think some people dislike in this podcast. Is your shouty voice a sedative? I see. It is a sedative. You can use it for sleep disorder. Yeah, yeah, yeah. Well, sort of. And the it'll. It'll knock you out, but you won't actually.
You won't actually go into a rapid eye movement with it. Are you trying to roofie me. It won't. You won't dream when you're sleeping on the border and red sort of thing. So why would people want to use that. Well it also it has a you might also like narcolepsy. No, I don't think I also whether I'm looking for time, that's the first thing it says is you may also like narcolepsy to find. Well it it's no, it is it first of all, it does have a few side effects, but not too many.
Yeah, a little dizziness, a little bit of stomach issues, because you don't actually go through REM sleep. You don't feel like you're rested. Well, here's the interesting thing now. Web M.D.. Mm hmm. It does list one of the side effects as mental dullness. So, I mean, that's yeah, not guesting, but it also says and vivid dreams. So which is it? You don't dream or it's going to not dream on this. No, that's incorrect. There are no vivid dreams. And we're in Jean calling out web m.d.
Now to do WebMD is basically it's another one of those sites full of you know what I thought experts that don't have medical degrees. That is probably I mean I have no idea who writes Web M.D. to be honest. It's I can tell you who writes the Web. And it's mostly 21 year old interns. And it says that you can have withdrawal. So not to stop it cold turkey. That is bullshit, too. I think you're looking at something different because there is no withdrawal from it.
Valerian Root Valley, RIAA and Val E are correct. It slows down the central nervous system, anesthesia and other. The main reason that I would I would recommend that to prevent any kind of over heart exertion is that it could be for going in for surgery. Well, now if you want to wake up, you know, definitely not do not use with Xanax. I know, though. Definitely not. I know we got some tincture. I'm glad you're going.
Now. Our show is basically turned into a a commercial that just lists all the negative side effects and things not to do. That's great. Yeah. I mean, you can try it if it it'll help you relax, I guess if it is a Yeah, well, if it is a a very natural ancient formula, relax them and it is a again with a few small side effects that are not really a big deal. It has positive properties to prevent things like heart attack. We are not medical professionals. This is not medical advice.
No, we're just talking. We're not doing any advising. Our buddy Cal over at Lavender Blossoms sent a bunch of the tincture. Is that was some stuff we ordered for my dad because my mom and dad use their CBD salve. Some really absolutely great stuff. You know, lavender blossoms, dot org. I believe it is. Did he send some Seth commercial to that? He he's donated to various shows in the past. I don't remember if he's ever I think he donated back when we were Yeah like no agenda.
Yeah well and for my shows I don't know if he ever does with one of the shows you're on with me but I mean that I don't think so. Not a lot of people do, but he sent some of the tinctures in which my dad's never going to use, so my wife took them. There's there's a bunch that are for things like sleeping and anxiety that have the THC key in there, which the wife's never done any of the marijuana or that.
So it'll be interesting to see how oh has brain okay yeah I know you've tested it greatly I've done scientific testing and marijuana, but it'll be interesting to see how that goes. It's like I'm natural environment like I believe that the quality of the stuff Cal sends is fantastic, but that's not something I would mess with, right? The only other thing I'd say is don't. Don't take any benzos. If you think valerian root, it's going to be a big camper.
Do not know what are the benzos going to do is a put you again into a coma. Yeah there you go. That's it. So again, that's the sleep in which I think is I think it's horrible getting that medical advice. But my dad has issues sleeping and oh, you should you should have your dad try Valerian root. Well, see, his one of his doctors gave him and it was originally for he was dealing with restless leg after he had an issue a few years ago. I also smoke it for a pipe. Oh, nice. Which that's gone away.
But he's on a I forget which one. He cut his leg off so it went away. The what? The restless leg. I don't know why it went away or what it was caused by, but they gave him a benzo for that and they told him, well, yeah, you know, if you need if you just have trouble sleeping, you can take, you know, half for one or whatever you want. But it's like you really want to be taking a benzo just to sleep. I think it's idiotic, but hey, I'm not a doctor.
I think the easiest way to get some sleep is just not sleep for three days. Is that. I mean, I know the last time we spoke, you had not slept for a day that. Go on. Yeah, I know. I actually got a good night's sleep last night. But what was all that fake meat? Salisbury steak. Exactly. Baked Salisbury. That's the secret right there. I think that.
I mean, sometimes you actually need to sleep, but generally, I just find that if I can't fall asleep, if I don't sleep, just work their way through a full 48 hours and your your odds of sleeping very well the following day are really high. Oh, I would agree with that. I mean, the day is probably going to suck for you that second day. Yeah. Yeah. And you're probably going to be tired as but by the evening. But yeah, you know, which is my problem and I know that's exactly what happens.
So if I get up one day and like 530 or six in the morning and can't fall back asleep, I know I'm screwed for a few days because that night it's going to be like 830, 9:00 on the couch, like you're done. And the problem with that is falling asleep then at 9:00 means that the next day you're going to be getting up at like five again, because I'm like oh seven. And, you know, for me it's between usually seven, seven and a half hours and that's it.
I can't I'm not one of these people that's like, Hey, I can just take a nap, I can go back to bed. My body's like, Well, yeah, no, I'm done. Get up, do something. So once the schedule gets off, yeah, that's bad. But I can seize of. Yeah, If you can't fall asleep for one full night, you then have to do everything in your power to stay up. Yes. That day. Well, not even late, but just stay up late enough.
Yeah. Don't go to bed is the worst thing to do is to, like, go take a nap 3 p.m. and then wake up at ten. Wake up at like 11:00 at night. Yeah. And at that point you've now gotten your sleep and you're awake. Yep. You're ready, man. You're ready to go to Europe because that time change is going to be perfect for you. Yeah, and it's funny you say that, but back when I used to travel a lot more, I you a lot in general. You got on the schedule early. Yeah, exactly. That's correct.
I would actually go into the schedule of the time zone. I was in at least 24 hours prior to that so that I could fully take advantage of my time in that country, whatever it was. So I'm not wasting time trying to catch up on sleep. And everybody's like, Why aren't you jetlagged? Yeah, because, well, you know, because I'm prepared. Like a voice that Amaro says to all dudes talking about their bedtime as grumpy old Ben's. This boring. Oh, it's worse you should listen to.
Definitely worth grumpy old Ben's Every now and then. That show goes so far off the rails. Yeah. This is not about bedtime. This is about drugs than keep up. Yeah. And whether you want to take them or not. And you don't want to mix them because you'll wind up in a coma. Uh huh. Val. Sarin root. Valerian root. Sorry. Yeah. Yeah. There's a valsartan valsartan. And they're one of those my blood pressure medication. Something that is that, that is. Yeah, absolutely.
There's so many different drugs if you just do all this. Yeah. Just careful in your stocking. You got it? Yeah, well, that's it. And my dad is like, Oh, you know, there was one pill that he was on. A blood pressure pill. Yeah. That they told him was a diuretic, you know, And he's like, well I'm paying a lot in the morning. So they changed that and he's like, Well, I'm still paying a lot in the morning. Like, well, what you know, what do you take in the morning? He takes a bunch of pills.
He had open heart surgery 20 something years ago, and he's like, well, I'm on you know, it's the Metoprolol. It was l zapped 18 or something and it's like three of the six per day. REDDICK Yeah. Had diuretic properties to it. It's like, well, this makes sense. Yeah. Like maybe for those pills you only take once a day, maybe split them up throughout the day, or that might just make you p all day long rather than the morning, I think. Well, the pills are not instant effect. They're time early.
So you're actually going to be the whole day long? Well, it depends if they are the extended release of them are the metoprolol was were my metoprolol it's not extended release so that's why I take it twice a day. But just get the good ones. I don't know. That's what I was prescribed, man. Well, you know, you can tell your doctor to change your script. Can you give me the extended release? Yeah, exactly. Hey, so far, still working.
Still here without the without the extra added heartbeats and stuff, which has been nice. And I'm still not sure if that came down to getting that bad crown pulled out of my mouth. Oh, that's probably it. Or let in there. It could be. Or just. That was right about the same week that I started five or six days a week of the exercise. So it was one of those. That's one of those. Yeah. It was more than likely something that had nothing to do with exercise, though. It's possible. I'm just kidding.
It's obviously the exercise. It's possible. You never know. We'll see when and it comes back, which is why I'm putting off. I know I need to go get that other root canal redo done, but it was getting dental work done the last time that started down. This which you read and it's like the the stuff that they I get to see your mouth. I can't believe Adam's been working through all of his mouth journey. The dude is Iron Man. He's a fucking professional is what he is is.
I though there's no way in hell I would be doing anything that involved speech if I was getting major surgery on my jaw. On the jaw and all of the teeth coming out and new ones going in and all that in the now. I mean, over on grumpy old bands, when Ambrose had one tooth done, you could hear it in his voice for weeks that things were different. Curry I don't know how he does it because it's like, Oh, here's a whole new mouth full of teeth.
And he's like, Yep, I can still talk like me. Yeah, yeah. Well, there's a little bit of difference you can hear, but not drastic. No. And once you get used to the new teeth, everything's good. And once you hear, once you have all not your realties, I mean then your whole dental upkeep is so easy. You don't have to worry about cavities, You mean very right. So it's like, you know, you just brush quick, get a little mouthwash, boom, you're done. I've always wondered why we don't have that.
Are diamonds, whether not or because you bite your tongue right off. If you accidentally bit your tongue. Well, they don't have to be sharp diamonds. You mean something that just never wears out? Yeah. Yeah. And I mean, it doesn't even have to be diamond. It's just I'm using Diamond.
Because when I thought of this as a kid, that seemed like the most hard substance, because it always, to me, seems stupid that we have body parts that get, you know, worn out is a poor child on the streets of Moscow. You were thinking, wouldn't it be great to have a mouth full of diamonds. Yeah, yeah, I was watching this rap video and I kept thinking, man, I should have a mouthful of them. But I mean, the reality is, yeah, I mean, technology's there. Why don't we just.
Yeah, that's moving towards the cyborg realm. Why don't we just kind of replace it all with seeing what teeth look like close up? Yeah. That's not something you want to actually put a lot of time into contemplating, because a lot of the stuff that happens in the human body is not pleasant. Okay, so they are really answering my question. Have you seen what this looked like close up?
I've seen like individual slides that show how porous and yeah, the teeth are effectively, if you look at them through a high powered microscope, probably an electron microscope. What they look like is a sculpture that was made by squeezing cork out of a tube around itself over and over and over. It's a huge multitude of strands, and these strands are calcium. You know, there's some other crap in there. I refer to phosphorus and the crap in there too. But. But essentially it's cork.
It's like making a tooth shape statue by taking a cork or and just going around and around and around and around. And it, you know, it sticks to itself and it dries eventually. That's what teeth look like under a microscope. They're not these like solid flat surfaces that we kind of feel with our tongues or even curved surfaces, as it might be. They are really not just porous, but they're literally made of really thin strands of pooped out calcium.
Well, yeah, What you're describing basically is what a 3D printer would do. Yeah, Yeah, except the 3D printer would do it not all at once. It would do it layer at a time. But the way the teeth are made, it, it seems like it's just it's like a caulking really is the best way I can try and describe it. Have you seen eyeballs pops up now? Okay. Google eyeball or iris high resolution. You know those beautiful colors that you see.
They are so beautiful both because what the structure actually is that looks like a pattern on your eye. That's really cool looking when you zoom in a lot, what it actually looks like is a whole bunch of rubber bands stretched and a circle and a hoop and and those rubber bands are not close enough to each other to completely block out things like there's gaps and holes between them and they're fairly random. They're not even standardized gaps. The whole.
And that's exactly what your eye is, is is basically a bunch of rubber bands that are stretched out. And this is how your iris is able to get bigger and smaller, right? You can if it's bright out, it'll shrink down to a very small size for a small diameter. And if it's dark, then it'll open way up. So these are biological irises and the way it works is just some muscle tension in your eye that stretches these flexible tubes, these rubber bands apart to open up the virus or to constrict dias.
So it does the opposite. Other muscles pull and tighten the gaps between them, but it does not look attractive one bit. It looks kind of disgusting. In fact, I'm sure. I'm sure most of the body looks pretty disgusting under a microscope and that's why I would not when healing I was on eye drops to keep that iris wide open for weeks and weeks at a time. I also wouldn't stretch and I guess, I mean, I never really asked why, but that was part of the deal was the eyedrops.
One of them was a, you know, dilated things of that eyeball. Wouldn't they just simply put a patch on your eye to keep from having your eye open? I don't think that would really keep the iris. I think it was more probably from keeping it from moving. Trying to keep it in one position would be my guess.
I never really asked why and I never really wanted to consider too much of the devices that they have to use because in the in the right way, which we're going to be getting some shots in that I hear sometime in the not too distant future. But they put in a scleral, what do they call it, a buckle lip, which is basically a little O-ring that they put into your eye. Exactly.
And then so it to the back of your eye, which when you think about that, I mean, I know people my buddy in California has M.S. and there's some horrible things with that mess. But he did not want to hear stories about how they were doing, sticking things into your eye and sewing things to the retina and and how the the surgeon needed to order some special tools because my eye was bigger than most. So we needed one that actually was a little bit longer to be able to bragging.
I got some big eyes, baby. You got to better believe it. You know, they say about dudes with big shoes. Yeah, I got size 15, baby. They got big eyes right there. Yeah, you could measure that right out to scientific, but yeah, it is scientific. This is. This is a show about science.
We started out talking about only fans, girls and stuff like intersex, which we totally glossed over The possibility that the only fans girl may be lying because the virgin things they fetish for a lot of guys like oh I might, I might be able to plant my flag first. Yeah no I'm pretty sure she's not the looker You see just by looking you can tell I can see things like I could tell. So yeah, if you want to know, I have the special still, right?
If you want to know that the woman you're about to start dating is chaste or a total skank, just ask. Gene sent a picture to Gene. He'll let you know. It's a pretty good service if you can offer it. Now, can you? Do you train an AI to tell the difference? Oh, absolutely. That would be the perfect thing. You could be like, just take somebody's picture. You put it to the eye and it tells you their personality without even worrying about it. More than that, you can tell if they're pregnant.
Well. Well, there are certain telltale signs of that from their faith. Oh, well, there you go. I did not know. I mean, I thought our buddy CSB could have created an AI program that would have made him a million bucks, but he didn't want to do it.
And I said, if you can come up with something, knowing the world of sports cards a little bit and knowing that the grading of sports cards is a big thing and it costs a lot of money to grade them, and if you're going to get it graded and it's going to be a shitty which a shitty grade is like anything seven or below, it's not worth grading most cards because the money exists. If something's graded like a nine or ten, mainly a ten, but a nine will give you a boost.
Mm. I'm like, if you could come up with an AI that all you have to do is take a photo of the card or scan it in a regular, you know, $100 canon scanner and it was accurate. Telling you what that card would grade when sent in to one of these organizations. People would pay a lot of money for that because it would save them a lot of money. Okay. And it's a pretty simple thing.
I mean, I know it's a little different because the person that is handling it in person can do things like change the angle that he's looking at, because really all they're looking at with the cards would be the scuffs, correct. The corners and how sharp the corners are, how sharp the sides are and the color. So I mean that literally it there's like four main things which I can see a in a as long as it could get the right image.
And it may not be that hard even to do something that can look at it. You know, maybe if you're using your cell phone, you have to take the picture from three different angles. You can see light reflecting or something. So you know for sure, you know there are any scuffs on my. But that would be a lot of money in that. Well, if you're using technology, you ought to be able to go take photos with infrared and ultraviolet and stuff and really see imperfections.
Yes. Which is the most maddening thing. And maybe they do. I really should look into what technology these main companies using because we sent in I had sold one of the tickets for the Michael Jordan's first spring training game with the White Sox. I sold one of those. It was my dad's ticket. I mean, what we had for. So my dad had one, my mom had one, I had one of my wife had won back from whatever year, Michael John Kerry of baseball.
And we sold one for a grand on eBay and then sent the other ones in to get graded. And one of them looked slightly better because it was probably the one on top and it didn't have any problems at all with weird little stuffy things looking like tickets might, you know, if they had been sitting together, you know, a little D lamination and when they came back, one was a six, one was an eight, one was a ten.
Wow. And from the look, it's like, you know, the one that was a ten definitely looked a little better. But the six and eight look the same to me. So the dropdown is sometimes very confusing and and what it would be. But yeah, I need to I need to look at what I need to do to get that ten sold because Michael Jordan fans are nuts. And of course this is the only ticket for that game graded a ten by PSA. So if somebody got like, you know, 100 thou and they want this ticket, you let me know.
And those are some very interesting insanity. This country is going down the toilet. If people are spending money on tickets that are old. Oh, yeah, the older the better man. I mean, if you could only get a ticket for that original Titanic voyage, Jean, imagine what you could get for that. Yeah, well, I threw mine away. Re I believe it. This will be the whole new thing of bombs. Throwing away baseball cards is now going to turn into you. Throw away that ticket. What?
Yeah. Oh, are the two things even weirder? Uh huh, yeah. For your teeth. Are. Well, no wonder they fall apart like that. But I'm telling you, this is why I've been saying for for hundreds of years at this point that a I is the future of humanity. So the future of humanity is in the hands of people like comic strip blogger who's an AI professional. He has an activity. Yeah, Does he? I don't know. It just. I don't want to. Well, he won't talk about his product, though, until he talks about it.
I don't want to. It's probably really good. It could be your own. It could be your perfect. It could be your only fans, girl. It could be That could all be CCP's. I know, I'm sure. Yeah, but it doesn't really matter that the person that you're giving money to to see naked is not real. Does that really matter if the end product looks real? That's the other question. It does not.
Which means somebody is going to be very rich once they can figure that one out, or they probably have tons of lot of computer generated girls on and on their phones. Yeah, I like they're not you know, they're not pretending to not be there. They're genuinely there. Yeah. It's, you know, high tech but check out told me go to after the recording essentially that just to get a sense of what I'm talking about sit down the rabbit hole it is a bit of a rabbit hole but, but you see it so I stuck.
I don't know if you're fancy enough to be able to include art inside of death. So if you have that technology available for you or not. But I gave daring photos of the rubber band die as well as. What the tooth enamel actually looked like. I could throw the links in the show notes, but since we don't do chapters, we don't have anywhere to put artwork. And I also didn't send you links. I sent you photos.
I mean, if you want to start doing chapters, you're more than welcome to do chives for the shop doing chapters of my own show. Why would I do them for our show? Because nobody wants chapters chapters take way too long to do. I mean, ideally, yes. Every podcast should have chapters. They agree with the theoretical, but As a podcast creator, I will say that it's a lot more work. It's literally doubling the amount of work you have to do the chapters.
Now, if you're doing a lot of notes and you're recording a podcast, let's say somebody does a tech news podcast or something where all they do is read stories. Somebody else wrote that's really easy to turn into chapters. Then here we have the link. Here you have all that stuff ready. Also see us. But you could be a millionaire right there, buddy. You have your eye.
You take Gene's audio from the podcast, you turn that into text, and then you use A.I. to go, Hey, what are the different sections of this? And then you know what each section is, and then use a AI to craft a witty little title for each of the chapters and put it all together without us having to touch anything. So outer. I will do that right now, Ray. It'll do the chapters and figure out when you switch topics. Kind of, yeah. I would like to see how many topics we cover.
Yeah, but I. I don't think I'm going to keep paying for it. Yeah, like they keep removing features. Why wait? Why is there adding more higher level price points? Oh, so like what you had been able to. They went from the problem to now like the corporate plan, the pro plan and it's like they didn't grandfather you and see that's bullshit. They did. They did for a year but that year is now over and you're like, That's not fair. I was here.
I was being funny when when they were when they first came, they were one of the first transcription companies out there. So like there was very little competition. And previous to that, believe it or not, I was paying human transcription services. No. Yeah, yeah. At the buck a minute. Well you couldn't find somebody on Fiverr to do that cheaper. Well a professional service.
So for a buck a minute we could get transcripts back like maybe five or six years ago and then audio came out maybe four years ago and they were one of the first super cheap in that space. They were under like 50 bucks a month. Yeah, I'm looking at this here now. I mean, it was and the thing is for just pure transcription, the fact that that's included the Adobe thing makes these transcription services nuts for
what they're charging for. Mm. Just that now the whole we could take your thing and figure out where the chapters should be.
Adobe does not have that, so that would be something that people would pay for. But as far as the transcription services, I have to say the Adobe, especially if you use Photoshop and premiere or audition any of that, if you use the Adobe stuff, it's dumb not to use them for the transcriptions because I've noticed also they've gotten a lot quicker with the latest additions as well, where it doesn't seem to take, you know, an hour to figure out the, the transcript for the show.
Yeah. Damn, Otter, come on. All these people want to make money out of this stuff. I don't think there's a lot of new AA forums coming out. A lot of them that I've talked to the the companies because I did a like for a work thing. I did a big project on the AI that I catalog. You categorized the bunch of these new API things and I reached out to probably 15 or 20 companies. And what I found is they were all like one or two person company companies. Like not just, but like one man startup.
But to answer it, it's like a guy who's like, I have an idea. It's usually a guy that is either just his masters or is working on his PhD. Makes sense. And so they're just taking what they've spent the last couple of years working on at school and listening their friends advice and say, Oh, you got to go make money with this, and then creating a business out of it. This is also why most of these AA products have complete horseshit for user interface, whether UI is horrible.
Yeah, I was just looking at mid journey and it's like oh, log into discord and I'm like, really? This is you haven't been able to get this way. Are you allowed to have a discord account or have they not allowed? John I've never had a problem with discord. I've had one for years, never use it in a very near legitimate phone number. These discord, while I have never I don't believe attached to one get grandfathered in probably it may be attached to a Google voice number. Yeah they're two.
They're cutting down on that man I believe it. VOICE But I got one for a marc van Dike show. The Great Void zero that the reason why I had a a discord way back. Yeah and I still have it. Oh, he used discord for a show. That's funny. Yeah, but back in the day, the audio from Discord was just about as good as as anything else. And you could bring in more people pretty good. I will tell you that. I think the audio and Zoom is the best of anything right?
Interesting. Well, I mean, they're getting paid, so that would make sense. Well, not only that, but it's musician mode. So it's uncompressed low latency audio, which more these things are. That is. Well, especially when you got the big fat pipes. You got the big bang bang. Exactly. That's that's a huge advantage is you got the big fat pipes and Yeah.
And they've made it very easy to turn off all the shit that people actually do want for using crappy laptop microphones in meetings if they put that was like their first big thing is how do we make shitty audio sound better, right? Adding these. And then people kept saying don't mess with my audio, I have good audio, right? So then they added the how do we turn off all this shit that makes bad audio sound better for the people.
And when you turn on musician mode and it's using full uncompressed audio, like the recording quality is incredible. Hey, I mean, we could get every little less inch of nuance out. Yeah, that's recording in the cloud, which is the best part is life. If you love recording in the cloud, I do. But I mean, speaking of making money on this show, we already thanked the net net for his boost to Gram that came in a little earlier. Yeah. Yeah. Otherwise our buddy comic strip blogger sent in to.
He's getting mad at you again. Oh, he sent an 8015. So this was the one before the show that says please visit w WW that CSB dot lol or witty and insightful cartoons. Yeah I mean witty. It's a pretty good cartoons on there I've been there but now he just came in during the show with 3333 He's like did Jean just say he doesn't have any respect for me? Then have to stop donating to unrelenting fortunately. Oh well, here's the problem CSB GM does not respect anybody.
Yeah, that's literally I said is with no disrespect. First of all, I said that with no respect. With no disrespect, that's the opposite. And then you said, Yeah, because you don't respect anybody. And I agreed. I was like, Yeah, you're absolutely right. Gene has no respect or disrespect for anyone. Yeah, no, I only work. I don't respect people. So there you are. But that is our. That's our massive list of donors. Yeah. I'm sure glad that a year and a half ago, I announced that people should stop
sending money in. It's like. That's like four bucks we made today, man. It's. It's almost like people actually, to what I said. Well, they're listening across a lot of different shows and it's the it's the economy, stupid as as we heard from the Carvel James Carville, it's the economy, no question about it. Things are down everywhere, though. What will happen to our Australian friend who wait because he came in with 270? Oh man, where's the next 200? It's like, come on, I expect this.
Remember, we were getting worried that we might have to have our thousand dollar dinner after all. Yeah, well, we got to bring them out to Chicago. The. Yeah, got to get that. Sounds like these decided not to hit $1,000 mark. You got to. You have to keep getting on up there. Got to get out up there. It's like that wasn't something we would recommend on a weekly basis unless you really were trying to get to the thousand dollar mark during the tour.
Like, I don't think you got a lot of money at all unless you're going to send in 100 bucks a week. That's the only way. But if you can't afford the $100 a week, you shouldn't do any. Probably not. Yeah, honestly, that that would be the smarter thing. No question about it. No question about it. No question about rate. No question about it. I agree. Oh, hey, that's my new bummers. Keep pointing out. It's like the Adam and John saying 100. What you're saying. No question about it. Yes.
That's not really a thing. It I mean, I say it it's kind of meaningless, right? No question about it. It the performative it is the this show is a performative and it is meaningless. It means that there is no question about that. The only time you would ever say that is if there's a question about it. Oh, do you think there is a question of okay, there's always a question, otherwise it would not lead you to say anything whatsoever about it. I'll change it to.
There is definitely a question about it that would at least be somewhat unique. It would make sense. Yeah. CSB says 3333 stats. Okay, Quora fine. So he takes your explanation and everybody is happy and we need to get into at the $1 per message. We need to get into a lot more arguments with people and that would be the way we we can make money.
We could do like a whole back and forth throughout the show, like just send your comments if it's at least 3333 Satoshis No, actually we probably need more like 33,333 That in above will read your message no matter what. And we could just go all show long. Oh sure, that way you could do a nice Q&A. I think shows like that. You can ask Gene a question. Let's there's no question you have for him. There's no question about that. Exactly. I'm glad your inauguration don't bother me.
Am douches with 3333. I wonder if I can make CSB upset. So he sends me money. No, it doesn't work that way. I'm dubious. Oh, that's too funny. It's a very specialized thing we have going here. Yeah, Yeah. I like CSB. He brings a unique perspect tive to things. I'm kind of saying that, right? I mean, I. We were telling him for a long time, Get rid of Griff, spend 25 bucks a month on an air voice generator. That's true.
And most people no disrespect to Griff, it's just like if was just a voice reader of a script. That's what I thought he was doing, right? That's what he was hired for. I don't know if he was getting paid. I don't think he was being paid necessarily, but which I would go off the rails, too, if I wasn't being paid. But I honestly, like, you know, I brought this up months ago is that you listen to the show.
It's just it's basically a bunch of opinions about things, some of which is a lot of it not I and he doesn't have an American accent to boot. To boot. Well, here's the beautiful thing, Jean. If you're paying for the service, you can release one with an English accent, one with an American accent. You can do whatever you want silently. Yeah. The air voice is kick ass these days. I think humans are pretty much obsolete. Well They should be for reading a script. Uh huh.
And for people that were making their money on things like audiobooks, I would be very worried because the mean I am. Yeah, for ones that are a little more of a better they're not, they're smart and 100% but they're getting there. They're getting there for sure. They're a lot closer. And if you have the ability then to go in and hire somebody to go back and listen in that edit like it would be much cheaper. Yes, that and faster editing. Yeah. Yeah, they are. But they're still involved.
I mean, I think you know that the A.I. is not going to mess up the words where a human might do. You have to go back in your kind of proof listening where the air is never going to say a different word accidentally. Uh huh. Yeah. Blitz wants to know if we can get a fake Ozzy Osborne reading the book. Now, that would be interesting. That's not a voice. That's a that's like a musical instrument. Yeah, sure. The. Yeah, I a man. I can't believe he's still alive. Shane MacGowan, do.
Yeah. Yeah. These guys have a beef. They have no business being alive. They've abused themselves to a point and we're the assholes going, Hey, Jim, let's take 14,000 different supplements, Let's research, let's get healthy, and we're going to drop dead long before these guys do. You have to, You know, it's like, Come on. Yeah, we're doing something, right? Yeah, yeah. But I don't know, I just. I don't mind that. Like, I. I think that mortality is actually kind of a good thing.
Well, it gets rid of the people you don't like. It gets rid of everybody, right? Eventually everybody works. Well, I just want to know why all of a sudden and I think we mentioned this on the last show, why taurine is in all of these news stories. I'm like the Wall Street Journal and Forbes. And like, it's a magical thing. I mean, is it just because somebody put out one study and mice and worms and they thought this was the greatest thing ever? Has nobody ever looked into taurine before?
It's it's like it's just weird to me when something like that gets pushed and I think maybe you said last week and it's probably true I wouldn't have noticed if I hadn't just started taking it. Mm hmm. Mm hmm. But it's like, all of a sudden, it's like, damn. It seems like this is a big thing. But I will say I do feel healthier, and I will say that that taurine and caffeine is probably the other thing.
Why it's great to do the exercising between 930 and 1030 before I'm taking the pills that will keep the heart from beating too fast is that I take the taurine when I get up I have a cup of coffee so I got the taurine and caffeine and boom It feels like you could just ride forever. Yeah I'm not a I'm not really an advocate of that I think that is a drug addict a drug addiction yeah like you should not need either caffeine or taurine to feel awake. No, I will wait. No, I would use those. It may.
It's my performance. Definitely riding the bike. It may be that I've done it long enough now that I've just built up the endurance, but it seems to be helpful. It may be helpful, but again, I think those are like wide awake midday drugs I've never been a fan of either for myself or other people drinking coffee in the morning to, quote unquote wake up. That's that's not a good thing. No, I don't really drink it to wake up. I wake when I wake up. I do not feel tired when I wake up.
It's just that coffee seems to make sense to wake up, do some coke if talking about drug addicts, is there an unrelenting No. And this is not not it's not an addictive fashion. I'm thinking more as part of a soft drink. Seems like just have a little coke in the morning. It'll get you itself wide awake. Just looking at my watch. And last night I had 49 minutes of deep sleep. 3 hours and 25 minutes of light sleep, 2 hours and 15 minutes of REM sleep in an hour and 13 minutes of being awake.
Well, that last part, you know, good. Well, I mean, you know, sometimes you wake up in the middle of sleeping. I mean, otherwise you could be dead. Well, potentially. I mean, if you're not plugged into one of those machines that breathes through you, let's see. So for last night, my different stages here.
Y yeah, show me your stages and wondering why this won't, like, scroll up Apple I where every time they make a change with something, it's garbage I've got the different stages would be awake for 13. Okay I have pretty good REM 2 hours and 16. Yeah, that's pretty close. Well, I have core 4 hours and 48. Yeah. Deep sleep, 47 minutes. Thankfully very similar to mine. Do that. Just write off mine. No, that was mine.
And the 13 minutes awake, which was a lot less than yours because you were awake more. I was awake for like an hour and a half now. Yeah, that was a getting up at like 3:00 to pee. That was that. Yeah, that was the joy in otherwise. Yeah. Pretty good. Pretty good. Yeah, it was what was mine. I mean look at my real quick, you know, I had 49 months of deep sleep. You had how much? No, I have to go back now, man. I was looking at.
I was now I'm looking at my averages, which are for like the last week the average would be average awake, 45 minutes. That was a little longer. You know, average REM, 2 hours and 4 minutes. I got 2 hours, 15 average core 4 hours and 53 got 325 average deep, 5349 C so close. Yeah. It's almost like we're a couple of old white men, huh? Omega Projects like my REM sleep, 2 hours and 18 minutes. Oh, so interesting. The three close as well. There you go.
Yeah. Okay. If there's deviation, the numbers you just heard, you'll talk to your doctor, right? This is something where. Which is what? Clearly, we've just. We have a sample of three, which now means categorical. And these watches are pretty good at. Something has changed you. I don't know why, but you may want to look into that. Yeah. Yeah, absolutely. Watches are pretty good, but I think my my bed sensor is much better. And that, of course, provides much more accurate results.
And they'll come back if the bed is a rockin. That's right. Because that actually listens to my breathing, which we had. We were trying to figure out before how the Apple Watch because they do breathing, but it's like, well, is it is it audio? How is it, you know, determining? Yeah, because there's a microphone on your Apple Watch that sends everything all day long back to Apple which is why the battery life sucked.
So you're using a microphone the wi fi non stop continuously so the batteries at 56% right now they charge it yesterday at like three in the afternoon. Is that okay there. Is that. That's pretty crap. Yeah. Mine 18 days. That's, that's pretty nice. What is your thought on the current crypto especially Bitcoin Bull Run man. I mean it's up it's up big time. Like last week CSB set the same amount of crypto and it was like $2. Today it was like $2.44. I mean, it was up a nice start up that much.
It's up from 28000 to 30, almost 31,000 now. Is it time for me to read a mike Satoshi? Should I be dumping that into Fiat now? Do we we think the runs are going to keep going. Maybe. I don't know. Thanks. Thanks for the advice. You know me with this whole bitcoin thing as I'm not just the long term. Hold on. I know. Also there was so when you were buying it, it was crashing. And then when you stopped, it went up. So I guess I really want to know is are you buying again? So should I sell?
No, I'm not buying. So it might keep going up. Yeah, Yeah, it may keep going up. Yeah. Because I was buying for like 50. I am it was perfect. I've got 2.8 million satoshis. So I mean, I need a little more. That's pretty, pretty wild. That's a lot of theft. It's about 900 worth and it's sitting in my get Lucky wallet, which I feel very creepy about at this point because that's a lot.
Yeah. Yeah. I've got the in my but this being like a 1,000,600, you send it over to me that way I'll cash out and I need to download my PayPal. Thank you. You're the one that'd be sending shit to me. I know. I was going to say I got to download the PayPal things and figure out what I mean. Although it's only Daniel. So really, that's the only donations I need to look for it to be. Like, What do I mean?
Is everything is let me see how many channels they have active right now I've only got three channels that are active and they always keep changing because I never set up my own. I always wait for other people to connect to me, like let's connect to Sergey, and they want to make that sur gene connection. Yeah, I think it's I think the the Elon Post is literally third Gen one. If you don't know what we're talking about, go to new podcast apps.

The past two years have been very difficult for us. Some of the people in our team died due to COVID complications. Others still suffer the side effects of it not being able to work at all. Some are fighting the war in Europe on both sides. Also, the power price increase in data centers in Europe hit us pretty hard.
I think that was the Oh, well, there you go. That's what they should have led with. Yeah, of course, Europe has no power and therefore anything relating to electricity is quadrupling in price. Yes, inflation Makes our daily expenses impossible to bear. We can no longer run this site without massive expenses, and we could no longer cover it out of pocket. After unanimous vote. We have decided we can no longer do it.

We did. The only fans stock what else we get. There's always more. Only fans talk. Is there really?
It does. Is it real? Is it not? Is I going to ruin it? Who's going to take all your I photo like I should order some groceries. Will Adobe respond to me and how long will it take. That'll be the question. Well if you haven't gotten a response, you're not getting one. Well, it's only been a couple of hours. I did it literally right before the show, but as of yet they're not quick with.
Yeah, you know, although to be fair, the people there, whoever is handling the support, is like, oh, nobody told us this because it's not on their website anywhere. It doesn't mention it to me. This was the most interesting thing about that, because I think people should be well aware of, even if you're just taking family photos. I can't wait to hear the story of, you know, I was that was just taking the dog out of the background in our family photo.
And the FBI came for my dad because he's a murderer from 20 years ago. And they basically matched him from my photograph that was uploaded. That's already been happening. I wouldn't worry about that. I know it's one thing. I'm like Facebook and stuff, but this would be like, Well, I did this was private. You know, I get Asian or Middle Eastern. Are you ordering food? A prostitute? I'm ordering food. Oh, Lord God, only you would think in terms of race, of prostitute as order right there.
You know, my dad was getting Charlie Sheen flashbacks for a minute there. I mean, maybe you could be ordering both at the same time. Now I'm ordering drugs, man. Can you order an Asian food with an Asian prostitute? I don't know. It's Texas. You probably can there you can. You can get anything in Texas. Yeah, pretty much anything. And we had some of the worst pizza we ever. The question is, you never get one buy one get one free. Oh, again food or that's way to be fair. A prostitute.
Buy one, get one free would be way more useful because the food I mean you're going to put on a little way it's going to be way too much. Yeah. That you'd rather have two unsatisfied women than one. Oh yeah. The meat, the more the better. Really? That word. Yes, exactly. But, Jean, when you're paying, you're not really worried about their satisfaction. That's true. That's very much true. But you're still going to get their unsatisfactory. True, true. I can buy a bowl of oatmeal for $11 here.
Okay. Or a vegan veggie bowl salad for 14. A bowl of oatmeal at one. It better at least be Irish. Oh, to better be steel cut. Or you can get a smoothie for $13. This is often we're talking about. Oh, my God, that's insane. Mm hmm. So what they what they really they're doing, they're going and getting one of the generic oatmeal packets, and they're putting that in some water and they're like, Here you go, boss. Well, let me look on the description.
Gluten free, organic oats, chia seeds, black hemp, monk fruit, oatmeal, coconut cream, maple, cinnamon, and topped with homemade organic granola. That's about 3.4 ounces. Right. Like the amount of ice cream. Oh, my God. You could. You would need, like, four of those to be full. I mean, to even. I don't think they expect you to be full from eating one of these. It's it's basically the container, the little bowl thing. Is it about the size of a spoon?
So you don't need a spoon And that's the beauty of it, No. Well, I'm pretty sure you still need a spoon. It looks too thick to just drain in our local grocery store. Meyer Screw them or whatever it is in the brave browser that they don't want their website to act nicely. So then I have to go open it up in a in a different browser, or their whole site may be down right now. So okay, there may be that I see a big spinning circle that's always a bad sign.
Now, not a good sign, but whatever you want for lunch, man. We had bad pizza the other day and I didn't want to go to the school because it used to be out here and I'm like, The place sucks. It's called wooden paddle. And they're, you know, allegedly the wood stone oven. And that's like, how do you fuck a pizza if you have a wood stone oven? That's what I want to know. But it was horrible. We had pizza, Margherita had one, There were no tomatoes. They had a really bad tomato sauce.
And it's like, Well, oh, you're not supposed to have been a the of Mercury. Thank you. I'm like, fuck this shit. Yeah. And they had a couple little blobs of cheese. I'm like, and I don't see any basil at all. They're probably like, Oh, it was in there. It was in the bad sauce. We put out the stuff, you know, these are like little individual pizzas, like, Oh, my dad gets a large cheese pizza for ten bucks. There you go. Would be better. Buy one, get one free, buy one, get one free.
And here was the best part of this. You know, I ordered iced tea or iced tea machines down, but we'll brew you if you want some black or green tea and then cool it down. And I'm like, okay, that's fine, because that's basically what you do at home anyway. But then when we were paying put down cash, Oh, we're cashless. My wife pulled out the credit card. I was very close to being like, Well, that's what I've got. I've got cash.
I don't see anywhere in your fucking restaurant that says you don't take cash, right? If you want me to pay for this fucking meal, take the fucking cash, or you can just tell me to go up on my way. Oh, I'm sure they would love to do that, huh? The really cheap pizza. Why is it so cheap? It might be gluten free. I mean, you, they. You may be right. But Mauro says he's walked out of places that sprung for cash lasagna. But did you do it after you've eaten the food? Because I was tempted.
Be like I tried to pay You either didn't get it. Dasani bottled water for $4. Oh, my God. What is it? The 16.9 ounce at least? Or is it like a eight ounce? It is a one liter. Okay, so it's a larger buy. Let's. Okay now. That's perfect. Roston That's a bargain. That is a bargain. Legal tender, mofo. You're right, Blitz. I don't understand how we got to the point to where a pizza place is like, nope don't want your cash. I'm. I'm right with those guys through your dirty money.
Screw your dirty money. Yeah. It also means your tip is coming down. That's the other interesting thing is when they give you the tip breakdown and you can check the little bit you like to do 20, 25 or 30%. And at least these places did last as well. But I can tell you that those get less than if I were to have left the cash myself. Always.
There was a a sushi place I went to a couple of weeks ago and after sushi I want to get a above with the and the barbecue place was in it was like one of these little things inside of a grocery store. And so I go in there waiting for a little while for the chick behind the counter to even notice that there's a customer. Then finally she comes over. What can get you started the over there one.
And then she gives me the total, which is like ten bucks and then says, And would you like to leave a tip? Now, mind you, this is the girl that's standing behind the counter that just took my order. There's zero service that she's providing for which she's not getting paid, but she's interacting with you. Yes. Yes, she she is the order taker. Check who is going to step two feet to the right to pour the bowl with the two feet back to the left to hand it to me. And not that it matters.
Would she make money out of only fans? I mean, probably. But usually that that would raise the tip little. You know, it's bad enough when they give you the iPad that has. How much of a tip would you like to leave? Oh, I hate that. I hate that when the waiter or waitress is standing right there with the guy. But why? But which button you're going to push? But this is next level.
When the non waiter, non waitress, the checker is working at a you know, a boba d is saying, would you like to leave a tip? No, I don't want to leave a tip. And if I would have left one I definitely won't. Now that I've been asked. Oh I see. It's like the double, it's like the issue Ritchie Maru thing that they had in Star Wars, right? Just like that. Yes. The itchy, scratchy Maru and Scratchy Maru.
I've never had both, so I don't know if it's worthy of the month or is it the month of Mori or something or. No, the. Oh, my gosh. Oh, the guy. Why can't I think of this? BARBAROS don't know what it is. Help us better browse. Yeah, you want to just call him bimbos? Because, you know, you seem to be talking an awful lot during this episode. Anyway, I'm just reading the troll room, man. I know. It's. I mean, like, you know, life is just sitting there in the throne room.
You could talk to the trolls as well, if you would just know. I can't because I was perma banned from there and I can never log in. Oh, where you put not. Okay, so you're put on a permanent ban. Yes, that makes sense. Have you tried logging in as hairy hamster? No. Why would I do that? Because that always gets him. Well, that's cause bummer. I was like them. See, bummers is like he needs by. Yep, But it's the Omega Maru. It's a very weird maru. I know it's a Maru. That's all I know.
It is quality entertainment. I'll tell you right here, right now, this is about the most boring episode we've ever done, man. Okay, so I'm ordering that you're talking about the wrong name for Star Wars. That means the the donations will go way, way up. Probably it is the Kobayashi Maru. Oh, the Kobayashi Maru. I knew that. Yeah, right. That's a Star Wars Star Trek. No, that's not Star Trek. It is a head start. Well, yeah, it is Star Trek, the Kobayashi, the scenario, the unwinnable scenario.
But isn't that also the name of the ship from a usual suspect. I don't know. We'll probably talk about it Wednesday on Grumpy Old Ben. So tune in for that I think I'm banned from listening. You should be. I'm pretty sure I am. We'll work on getting that removed. Oh talk about on the aftershow. H The fact checker Ryan Ben Rhodes says the lawyer from the usual suspects was also named Kobayashi. That's what I thought. Yeah. Yeah. There you go.
He claims will have interesting topics and grumpy old beds. So I guess we're doing something different. Oh, boy, that was a good. So Cram wasn't going to do best, right? You beat me to it. Well, see, that's the. That's the trick, right? You get on first and that ruins the fun for everybody. Rest of yourself in so that they can say anything.
